Dear son,

The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.

If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I 36 teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I 37 the same things thousand and one times, do not 38 me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story 39 you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a 40 , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I 41 , in order that you wanted to bathe.

If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well 46 I need to and when not. When my 47 legs do not allow me to walk, give me your 48 , the same way I did when you gave your first 49 . And when someday I say to you that I do not want to 50 any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get angry. Someday you will understand.

Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that,

51 my mistakes, I always wanted the 52 thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent(无可奈何) for seeing me 53 you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you 54 living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and 55 . I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.

I love you, Son.

题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Kenya wants to organize a major international conference to discuss how to fight piracy(海盗) off the coast of Somalia. The conference may also deal with ways to rescue Somalia from seventeen years of civil war. More than forty percent of its people depend on food aid.

Kenyan Foreign Minister Moses Wetangula says the world cannot end piracy and civil war without dealing with Somalia’s political problems.

Somali pirates operate in the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden. The Gulf of Aden connects the Red Sea to the Mediterranean by way of the Suez Canal. The pirates have fast boats, modern weapons and equipment like satellite phones and global positioning systems.

Pirates hijacked the Sirius Star off the coast of Kenya and moved it to waters off Somalia.

The tanker Sirius Star, at three hundred thirty meters long, is the biggest ship ever known to have been captured by pirates. It also happened farther south than most attacks, and farther out at sea ---- more than eight hundred kilometers from land.

The ship was headed for the

United States with two million

karrels of oil, worth an estimated

one hundred million dollars. A Saudi

Arabian company owns the tanker.

The pirates have reportedly

demanded twenty-five million

dollars in negotiations to release the

ship and its crew of twenty-five.

Somali pirates generally do not steal goods or kill hostages. They are believed to be holding seventeen ships with about three hundred crew members. Among the ships is a Ukrainian vessel hijacked(劫持) in September with a load of military weapons including tanks.

The increase in piracy is raising the cost of insuring ships. Also, oil from the Middle East and exports from East Asia could take longer to arrive.

Some of the world’s heaviest shipping traffic passes the Somali coast. But major shipping companies have begun to consider new routes. One of the world’s biggest shippers, A.P, Moeller

附02：听力原文

Text 1

M: Do you enjoy life in New York?

W: No, I don’t. I’m planning to move to Chicago or Boston. But I’ve never regretted my earlier decision.

Text 2

W: Why did the old couple sell their house here?

M: Because they wanted to live somewhere warm. They were tired of the snow all year round.

Text 3

M: It doesn’t make any sense to talk about that examination.

W: That’s true. It’s no use crying over spilt milk.

Text 4

M: I think I’ll order the chocolate ice cream because I didn’t eat lunch earlier today.

W: No dessert for me. I can hardly get into my jeans as it is.

Text 5

W: I just got a new job in another country. So I have to leave here soon.

M: I hate to work without you here.

W: So do I. But I think it’ll be fun to experience a new culture.

Text 6

W: Fifteen minutes to get there! And these suitcases too! I think we ought to take a taxi.

M: Not at this moment. Look at the traffic. It is moving very slowly. We can get there just as quickly on foot.

W: Well, I can’t possibly carry this suitcase any farther.

M: Let me take it.

W: Don’t be silly. You can’t carry your case and mine as well.

M: Yes, I can .The cases aren’t that heavy. —Hum!

W: You see! They’re heavier than you thought!

M: Perhaps it is not a bad idea to take a taxi after all.

Text 7

W: I find it hard to say “no” than “yes”.

M: Me, too, and most people do. Sometimes when we are at home relaxing for a couple of days, our friends ask us to offer some help. We usually agree reluctantly.

W: Yes. Many people say “yes” to this kind of requests. People tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, but are often angry with themselves afterwards.

M: That’s true. Saying “no”requires courage and considerable practice. For people are afraid

saying “no” risks losing the friendship of the person asking for help.

W: But in fact, rejecting a request can even help to keep a relationship last longer.

M: Yes, I agree. It is better to say “no” sometimes.

Text 8

W: Frontier Airlines. How may I help you?

M: I’d like to make a reservation for the second of May.

M: I’ll be departing from Houston, Texas, and flying to Chicago, Illinois.

W: And when do you want to return?

M: Uh, I want to come back on the fifth. Oh, and ma’am, I’d like the cheapest flight you have. W: Yes, sir. Well, if you leave at 6 am from Houston on May second, the price for the flight is $150.

M: And what about from Chicago on the fifth?

W: That’s also $150 if you leave at 6 am.

M: Great, let’s do that. And would you have any information about places to stay? I’m going to an important meeting in the Michigan Avenue area.

W: Yes, sir. But first, may I have your name?

Text 9

W: So, why do you want to be a computer programmer?

M: Well, I don’t like working in a fast food restaurant, and I want to make more money.

W: I see. Do you have any experience?

M: No, but I’m a fast learner.

W: What kind of computer do you use?

M: Computer? Uhm, let me see. I can use a Mac. I also used Windows 2000 once.

W: That’s good.
