听力原文:Though officially known as the Swiss Re Tower, Londoners universally refer to the

new 41-storey buildings, as "the Gherkin", meaning a little cucumber, though it actually looks more like a pine cone. As a typical example of green architecture, what is most remarkable about the building is its energy-efficiency. Thanks to its artful design and some fancy technology, it is expected to consume up to 50% less energy than a comparable conventional office building. Green architecture is changing the way buildings are designed, built and run.

Proponents of green architecture argue that the approach has many benefits. In the case of a large office, for example, the combination of green design techniques and clever technology can not only reduce energy consumption and environmental impact, but also reduce running costs, create a more pleasant working environment, improve employee's health and productivity, reduce legal liability and boost property values and rental returns.

Green architecture, a term which only came into use in the 1990s, has its origin in the energy crisis of the 1970s, when architects began to question the wisdom of building enclosed glass-and-steel boxes that required massive heating and cooling systems. Early proponents of more energy-efficient architecture included William McDonough, Bruce Fowle and Robert Fox in America, Thomas Herzog in Germany, and Norman Forster and Richard Rogers in Britain.

Which of the following statements is tree of the new building?

A.It is actually a cucumber-shaped building located in Britain.

B.It is a cucumber-shaped building located in Switzerland.

C.It is actually a pine-cone-shaped building located in Britain.

D.It is a pine-cone-shaped building located in Switzerland.

One day, Wilson arrived at his office in an expensive car. Little as his pay was, he appeared to have got a lot of money to spend. he bought an expensive house and gave parties one after another. At one of the parties he met a beautiful woman and fell in love with her. When he was asked by the woman one evening how he had suddenly got so much money to spend, Wilson explained that he had a very rich uncle who lived abroad and posted him money nearly every month. But his story could not fool the woman. She was a policewoman and was sent to watch him closely by acting as his "girlfriend", because the police had noticed that he often stayed behind in the evenings and was usually the last person to leave the War Office.

His "girlfriend" and three other policemen entered his house when he was out and discovered copies of government secret papers and a radio transmitter hidden inside a piano. After Wilson was caught, it was learned that his real name was Jack Brown, and that he had been hired as a spy for the Germans.

听力原文: A recent investigation performed by Business Watch Today revealed that recently graduated students have an easier time of getting funding from the government to start up a new company. In an interview with a governmental member of finance, it was acknowledged that the government could offer better interest rates, through banks, on loans to recently graduated students than private banks could to long-time entrepreneurs. The reason offered by the official was that recent graduates showed more potential at successfully establishing a new business than others. Though large corporations usually offer more job stability, the hours are long and the rewards are few. Start-up companies offer hardworking graduates a great opportunity to enter the job market through their own means rather than having to rely on large corporations.

What did the investigation show?

A.More graduate students are entering the job market.

B.Recent graduates are more likely to receive government funding for start-ups.

C.The government is restricting cheap loans to long-time business.

D.Start-up companies have the most jobs available.

听力原文: As city residents, we all think that we know what the word "city" means, but do we really (32) ? Here are some interesting facts.

In Britain, a town of any size can be called a city, if it has a cathedral. So London today includes the two cities of London and Westminster, because both parts have a cathedral (33) . But a small place in North Wales called St. Asaph has a population of fewer than 4,000 and yet because it has a cathedral it is also called a city. on the other hand, Birmingham was so large that it was specially made into a city, even though it did not have a cathedral (34) .

In the USA, "city" is simply a legal term, and it does not depend on the size or importance of the place. Confusingly, however, the US Census Bureau, an American government department that conducts official counts of the population, classifies any place with a population of over 2,500 as a city, no matter how far out in the countryside it is.

The world's most densely populated city is the area of Japan that includes Tokyo and Yokohama, which has an estimated 29,272,000 inhabitants (34) . But, in the future, it may well be replaced by a city in China or a city in India.

So, what is a city? It all depends on where you live.

(33)

A.US census officials.

B.Government employees,

C.People who live in the city.

D.Lawyers who work for the Church.

听力原文: (29) In Britain and other countries, young people sometimes take a "gap year", a year off between high school and college. This idea never gained a big following in the United States. Recent news reports have suggested that interest may be growing, though there are no official numbers.

Mister Deacon says the most common reason is to have a chance to travel. (30) But he says international students may take a gap year to meet requirements at home for military duty.

Some high school graduates see a year off as a chance to recover after twelve years of required education. But it can also give students a chance to explore their interests.

Many colleges and universities support gap-year projects by permitting students to delay their admission. Experts say students can grow emotionally and intellectually as they work at something they enjoy.

Of course, a gap year is not for everyone. Students might miss their friends who go on directly to college. (31) And parents might worry that their children will decide not to go to college once they take time off. Another concern is money. A year off, away from home, can be costly.

Holly Bull is the president of the Center for Interim Programs. (32) Her company specializes in helping students plan their gap year. She notes that several books have been written about this subject. She says these books along with media attention and the availability of information on the Internet. have increased interest in the idea of a year off.

(30)

A.It means the year you take off and you'll continue school with enough money.

B.It means the year you have off between high school and college.

C.It means the year you have off during your college life.

D.It means the year you take off before high school.
