W: Did you see the France-Wales match on TV last night? Exciting! Wales won! Everyone was over the moon!

entrance to Machu Picchu itself, seeing all the ruined buildings and narrow streets. Then, in the evening, after most of the tourists had gone, we saw the most beautiful sunset. That’s the most exciting moment I enjoyed. (Text 10) W: And now on to this month’s best short breaks. There’s nothing like a long weekend in a foreign city to make you feel good and this month we’ve found some great breaks in Paris, Madrid, Rome and Venice with breaks ranging from two nights to seven. You can find more about them on our website. But our favorite short break of the month is three nights in Barcelona. The cost of the Barcelona break pays for your flight and your hotel. It also includes a full continental breakfast. Evening meals are not included. You can stay at a hotel of your choice and the hotels range from 2-star to 5-star—there are discounts however, if one of the nights you stay is Sunday. This applies to all the hotels. Barcelona is a city for art lovers, but we all know how much sightseeing costs can be, so for a very small extra cost this break also offers a discount card that will give you money off many of the city sights. The card also allows you 10% discount in certain restaurants around the city. This Barcelona break can be enjoyed anytime between the 5th and the 31st of Oc tober, although booking must be made before 30th of September. You can book through our website or, if you prefer, you can telephone direct. This is a fantastic offer. Don’t miss it.
W: No, he did something to his ankle though, didn’t he? I don’t think it’s serious though. He’s in the team for next Saturday.
M: Great, I’ll be watching that too. Do you want to come round to my place and watch it with me? W: Wow, good idea. (Text 7) M: I’ve just been to see that new musical that everyone’s talking about. W: Oh really, and is the plot as good as people say? I think the writer has won awards for his earlier

(Text 1) M: I need to go to buy some paper and some notebooks. W: As long as you’re going there anyway, could you get me a box of pencils? M: OK. (Text 2) M: Excuse me, I want to borrow these books, but I don’t have a library card. Where can I apply for one? W: Go to the office at the end of the hall. (Text 3) W: Why will Mr. Rogers be out of the office next week? To take a holiday or go on business? M: Neither. He’s traveling to see his niece. She’s getting married next Thursday. (Text 4) W: May I leave the office early today? I have to pick up my parents at the airport. M: But you’re supposed to meet Mr. Black at 4 o’clock, aren’t you? Can’t you ask someone else
work. M: Yeah, and it’s not bad at all, although there are one or two bits that didn’t work, which I got rather
angry by. For me, what stood out were the people playing the two leading roles. They were excellent. But I found the songs unimpressive for the most part. W: Well, it sounds as if I should go and see it sometime, anyway. (Text 8) M: You moved to a new place last month, didn’t you? W: Yeah. It was a pity I had to leave that flat because in many ways I liked being there. It was warm, even during the coldest nights of January, and the owner was fair, charging me a reasonable rent and immediately getting things fixed whenever anything went wrong. M: That was good. W: Yeah, but he couldn’t do anything about the couple next door, who seemed to spend nearly all their time having arguments. I tried turning up the TV but I could still hear them, and when I saw the woman in the hall one morning and mentioned it to her, she got angry. So, sadly, I had to pack my bags and find somewhere else. (Text 9) M: Lily, what did you do when you decided to walk through the Andes Mountains to Machu Picchu? Was there anywhere you could get used to being so high up? W: Well, the walk takes me to above 4,000 meters, but of course there’s nothing like that in this country. The highest mountain here is only 2,000 meters, so I couldn’t. I thought of spending some nights out in the tent during some particularly bad winter weather here, but decided that might put me off going at all. So I got into the habit of doing around fifteen kilometers on foot through the hills near here each evening. M: So how did the walking go? W: It was wonderful. A fantastic experience! Even though sometimes it was very hard going and naturally there were a few problems along the way. M: And what, looking back over the whole journey, would you say was the most exciting moment? W: There were several magical experiences, such as when we walked through the Sun Gate at the

Let me tell you something about the drama festival we had last month.The annual drama festival for Senior Two students was held on April 16. My class put on the classic The Thunderstorm, a tragic story concerning love and other relationships in a typical rich Chinese family in the 1920s. I played the role of the father, which was very challenging for me. Although the preparation work, including searching for the original play, adapting some parts, and doing rehearsal, was hard, the performance was a great success! I learned the significance of teamwork and improved my public speaking skills.So do you have drama festival too?Best wishes!Y ours,Li Hua(113 words)英语听力材料录音原文Text 1W: Excuse me. This is the address.

Then we can go out and eat before we see a film.W: What do you want to see?M: There’s a good art film at the Green House Cinema.W: Let’s see…it starts at 6:15. I don’t think we can get there in time to see the beginning. How about the action film at the New State Cinema? It starts at 6:50. Perhaps the 7:00 one at the UME Cinema is even better.

Now, how much money do you expect to have for a year?M: From what I’ve read, it seems that a starting pay would be around $12,000 a year.W: Here, you would start at $10,500 for the first year, a kind of training period.

We’ll be hiring two people. You’ll hear from us sometime next month. Good luck! And thanks for coming in today.Text 10M: Well, I’d love to share with you my personal opinions on city life and life in small towns. I grew up in a small town until I was 18 and then moved to a big city, so I have experienced the good and bad sides of both. I n ever thought that I would like living in a big city, but I was wrong. After ten years of living in one, I can’t imagine ever living ina small town again. Surely small towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of transport. In a smalltown, you have to own a car to make life comfortable. You can’t get around without one because there isn’t any kind of public transport. Big cities generally have heavy traffic and expensive parking, but there you have a choic e of taking public transport, which is cheaper than driving. So, if you don’t have a car, you’d better live in the city. I also love the exciting life in big cities. I can always enjoy a lot of films, concerts, and other wonderful shows.How ever, these things are not common in small towns. The final thing I like about large cities is that you can meet different kinds of people. However, you seldom find such a variety of people in a smaller town. I think that living in an area where everyone was just like me would quickly become dull. Of course, safety should be considered, and that’s one area where small towns are better than big cities. Still, I would rather be a bit more careful and live i n a large city than to feel safe but dull.。

Physical exercise is indispensable to a happy life. The reasons are as follows. To start with, exercising is good for us to build our bodies. It helps co-ordinate the different body parts of ours when we have sports. What’s more, exercise can also contribute to the development of our ability to respond agilely. For instance, when you play table tennis, you must try to act as quickly as possible so that you can meet the ball and hit it where you want it to go. Additionally, it helps a lot to improve your mood. While doing exercise, you are to become more active, as a result of which you become more optimistic.Our school is quite in support of the activity. That is why we have three PE classes a week and one hour per day for after-school activities. All school facilities like the stadium, the football pitch and the athletics tracks are free to use. Besides, footballs, volleyballs, badminton bats are all available.Come on, dear friends! Let’s start right now.The Student Union听力录音稿原文：Text 1W: Could you tell me the time of the first and second period?M: Sure. The first period begins at 8: 00 am and lasts until 8: 50 and the second is from 9: 05 to 9: 55 Text2M: I always begin my lecture with a joke. That puts the audience at ease. W:Yes, and accordingly, they laugh to put you at ease.Text 3W: Can I help you?M: Well, actually, I’m looking for a digital watch.W: Oh, I’m afraid we don’t have any more digital watches in stock, but we expect some to come in very soon Text4M: Would you like to go to the cinema this evening?W: I’m afraid I have to finish my homework assignment first.Text 5W: What did you think of the play you saw last night?M: Well, I should have stayed at home.Text 6W: Hello, Old English Restaurant.M: I d like to book a table for tonight. W:Yes, sir. What time?M: Eight o’clock.W: Certainly. For how many people? M:There are ten of us.W: Ten of you! But we don’t usually accept large parties, sir. M:I know, but we are regular customers.W:What’s your name please, sir? M:Michael Peterson.W: Mr. Peterson…Of course! That’ll be all right. We’ll tables together. M:Thanks.W: What food would you like for this evening, sir? We have fresh seafood tonight. M:No, thank you. We’re all vegetarian.Text 7W: Hi, Jim, do you have a minute?M: Sur e, come in. What’s on your mind?W: The problem of students using the computers.M: What’s the trouble?W:The students are supposed to use the computers for only one hour a day because so many students need to use them.M: I know.W: Well. now it seem s that some of the students aren’t willing to give up the computers when their time is up.M: I suppose they feel it doesn’t matter very much to keep them for a few more minutes. W:Yes, but this makes it hard for those who are waiting to use the computers.M: You’re right. Let’s prepare a notice right now, and we can put it up tomorrow to clear up the problem.Text 8W: I had such a terrible day yesterday that I’m starting to believe that Friday is unlucky.M: Why? What happenedW: Everything went wrong. For example, I had to meet an important customer in the morning, and on the way to town, my car broke down. When I finally got there, the customer had already left.M: That certainly is bad luck.W: That’s not al. In the aftern oon, the children asked some friends over to play and they had a pillow fight and tore one of the pillows. When I got home, there were feathers all over.M: My goodness.W: Wait! There’s more. Somebody- they wont say who- dropped a jar of jam on the new carpet.Then the dog had gone to lie down on it so they had given him a bath and put him on my bed.M: Oh, no!W: Oh, yes! And to make matters worse, my boss and his wife arrived while I was cleaning up the house. I had forgotten that I'd invited them for dinner.Text 9W: Hell, Tony? This is Jean.M: Good morning, Jean. What happened? Why haven’t arrived yet?W: I’m really sorry, Tony.I’m driving over to your house right now, but it seems unlikely that I will be able to get there by 9 o clock.M: Why?W: There has been an accident between a taxi and on the road. The police are handling it, but there is traffic jam now.I’m just calling you to apologize. M:Too bad. Where are you now?W:I’m near the National Library.M: What time do you think you can arrive?W: It may take about 40 minutes, so I think I can be there at about 9: 20. I’m sorry.M: Never mind, Jean. Don’t worry. I can wait. W: Thank you, Tony. Bye M: Seeyou later! Text 10W: Hello, everyone. This is Mr. Brown. Today he will tell us how to get a job in this tough market.M: Good afternoon. I’m about to reveal to you a tip, which, if you follow it, should almost definitely get you more job interviews. Instead of spending all your energy on making your resume perfect, put some energy into making sure your cover letter really stands out.During the years I worked in the job center, I did lots of follow-up interviews with hiring managers. They are receiving so many applications for each job opening that they simply cannot go through them all. So, they first read through all the cover letters. Then they basically make two piles. The reject pile is always bigger than the pile they reserve for further study and for calling people in for an interview.What this means is that most of the resumes, letters of recommendation, and so on, never even get a quick glance if the cover letter doesn’t capture their attention.Now, take the following two job candidates for example. Candidate A is exceptionally qualified, has a wonderful resume, and has included a dull cover letter. Candidate B is a little less qualified, has an above average, but not exceptional resume, and has a cover letter that really stands out.Who do you think has more chance of getting a job interview?Yes, I think you probably guessed it right: Candidate B has a much better chance, because the hiring manager will stop and take a closer look when they see their unique cover letter, while Candidate A’s resume and superior qualifications won’t even b e seen by the hiring manager.。

In Advanced Poetry Writing Class, you are asked to ______.A. lay steady foundations for the basis of poetry writingB. hand in your poems getting ready for publicationC. make comments on the work of your classmatesD. give some lectures on basics of poetry craft4. The passage is most probably from a ______.A. newspaper advertisementB. book reviewC. scientific magazineD. news reportBCancer is feared by everyone. And there is more and more fear about cancer. Not the disease itself — there is no such thing as a high incidence rates of cancer. Except for lung cancer, mostly caused by cigarette smoking, the incidence rates are not on the rise. However, some kinds of cancer are decreasing. But the fear of cancer is catching, and the country stands at risk of an anxiety. The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物). The ordinary, more or less, scientific statement that something between 80 and 90 percent of all cancers are due to things in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is “cleaned up.” This is not at all the meaning.The 80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in various societies around the world — for example, the high incidence of liver cancer in Africa and the Far East, stomach cancer in Japan, breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer in America. These data show there may be specific environmental influences, but largely based on personal life-style, which determines the incidence of various forms of cancer in different communities — that is all the data suggest. The overall incidence of cancer, counting up all the cases, is probable roughly the same everywhere.5. According to the passage, the incidence of cancer is generally believed _____.A. to be based on inactive life styleB. to be due to anxietyC. to result from environmental influencesD. to be caused by heavy smoking6. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer’s opinion about the relationship betweencancer and environment is _____.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. approving7. According to the passage, the writer seems to feel that _____.A. the risk of catching cancer is on the riseB. the whole earth is coming to seem like a huge carcinogenC. the risk of catching cancer isn’t so great as people thinkD. cancer can be cured if the environment is cleaned up8. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cancer and EnvironmentB. The Fear Caused by CancersC. Data on Cancer IncidenceD. Cancer and its InvestigationCHigh-quality customer service is preached（宣扬）by many, but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done.Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store, but instead will warn their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers and anyone who will listen. Store managers are often the last to hear complaints. “Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers,” said Paula Courtney, President of the V erde group. “The store loses the customer, but the shopper must also find a replacement.”The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered（塞满了的）shelves, overloaded racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude sales people.During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants to direct customers to empty parking spaces. Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store display, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions. Most importantly, sales people should be skillful and polite with angry customers.“Retailers who’re enthusiastic and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues than those who aren’t so friendly.” said Professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something as a greeter at the store entrance would help.”Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.9. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?A. Most shoppers won’t complain even if they have had unhappy experiences.B. Shoppers would rather tell their unhappy experiences to people around them.C. Few customers believe the service will be improved after their complaints.D. It is difficult for customers to have easy access to store managers.10. What does Paula Courtney imply by saying the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?A. New customers are sure to replace old ones.B. It is not likely the shopper can find the same products in other stores.C. The same products can be bought in other retail stores.D. Not complaining to the manager causes the shopper some trouble too.11. What contributes most to smoothing over issues with customers?A. Manners of the salespeople.B. Hiring of efficient employees.C. Huge supply of goods for sale.D. Design of the store display.12. To achieve better shopping experiences, customers are advised to ______.A. put pressure on stores to improve their serviceB. settle their disagreements with stores in a friendly wayC. voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directlyD. shop around and make comparisons between storesDYou hear the comment all the time: the U.S. economy looks good by figures, but it doesn’t feel good. Why doesn’t ever-greater wealth promote ever-greater happiness? It is a question that dates at least to the appearance in 1958 of The Wealthy Society by John Kenneth Galbraith, who died recently at 97.The Wealthy Society is a modern classic because it helped describe a new moment in the human condition. For most of history, “hunger, sickness, and cold” threatened nearly everyone, Galbraith wrote. “Poverty was found everywhere in that world. Obviously it is not of ours.” After World War II, the fear of another Great Depression gave way to an economic growth. In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.To Galbraith, materials had gone mad and would cause discontent. Through advertising, companies conditioned consumers to buy things they didn’t really want or need. Because so much spending was artificial, it would be unsatisfying. Meanwhile, government spending that would make everyone better off was being cut down because people wrongly considered government only as “a necessary bad.”It’s often said that only the rich are getting ahead; everyone else is standing still or falling behind. Well, there are many undeserving rich — overpaid chief managers, for instance. But over any meaningful period, most people’s incomes are increasing. From 1995 to 2004, people feel “squeezed” because their rising incomes often don’t satisfy their rising wants — for bigger homes, more health care, more education, and faster Internet connections.The other great disappointment is that it has not got rid of insecurity. People regard job stability as part of their standard of living. As company unemployment increased, that part has gradually become weaker. More workers fear they’ve become “the disposable American,” as Louis Uchitelle puts it in his book by the same name.Because so much previous suffering and social conflict resulted from poverty, the arrival of widespread wealth suggested utopian (乌托邦式的) possibilities. Up to a point, wealth succeeds. There is much less physical suffering than before. People are better off. Unfortunately, wealth also creates new complaints.Advanced societies need economic growth to satisfy the multiplying wants of their citizens. But the search for growth cause new anxieties and economic conflicts that disturb the social order. Wealth sets free the individual, promising that everyone can choose a unique way to self-accomplishment.

The station's technical expert,Kjell Stensson, appeared on the news to announce that thanksto a newly developed technology, all viewers could now quickly and easily transform their existing sets to display color reception. All they had to do was pull a nylon stocking overtheir TV screen , and they would begin to see their favoriteshows in color. Reportedly, hundreds of thousands of people,were taken in. Actual color TV transmission only started toappear in Sweden on April 1,1970.SAN SERRIFFEIn 1977 the British newspaper The Guardian published aspecial seven-page supplement( 增刊 )in honor of the tenth anniversary of San Serriffe, a small republic located in theIndian Ocean.

Few noticed that everything aboutthe island was made up.NIXON FOR PRESIDENTIn 1992 American National Public Radio's Talk of the Nation program announced that Richard Nichard Nixon , in a surprisemove ,was running for President again.

Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it, don't have it ontheir schedule, didn't know it was coming or are too strict to depart from their routine.I can't count the times I called my sister and said, “How about going to lunch in half an hour? ” She would gasp and stammer(结结巴巴地说 ), “I can't.

Wenever did have lunch together. From then on, I've tried to be a little more flexible.Life has a way of going faster as we get older. The daysget shorter, and the list of promises made to ourselves getslonger. One morning, we awaken, and all have to show for ourlives is repetition of “I'm going to ”,“I plan on”and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit. ”Whenanyone calls my“seize the moment” friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mindon new mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for five minutes, and you're ready to tradeyour bad feet for a pair of Rollerblades and skip an elevatorfor a bungee cord.My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years. I love ice cream. The other day, I stopped the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home,I would have died happy.Now go on and have a nice day.

The passage is most probably from a ______.A. newspaper advertisementB. book reviewC. scientific magazineD. news reportBCancer is feared by everyone. And there is more and more fear about cancer. Not the disease itself — there is no such thing as a high incidence rates of cancer. Except for lung cancer, mostly caused by cigarette smoking, the incidence rates are not on the rise. However, some kinds of cancer are decreasing. But the fear of cancer is catching, and the country stands at risk of an anxiety. The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物). The ordinary, more or less, scientific statement that something between 80 and 90 percent of all cancers are due to things in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is “cleaned up.” This is not at all the meaning.The 80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in various societies around the world — for example, the high incidence of liver cancer in Africa and the Far East, stomach cancer in Japan, breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer in America. These data show there may be specific environmental influences, but largely based on personallife-style, which determines the incidence of various forms of cancer in differentcommunities —that is all the data suggest. The overall incidence of cancer, counting up all the cases, is probable roughly the same everywhere.5. According to the passage, the incidence of cancer is generally believed _____.A. to be based on inactive life styleB. to be due to anxietyC. to result from environmental influencesD. to be caused by heavy smoking6. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer’s opinion about therelationship between cancer and environment is _____.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. approving7. According to the passage, the writer seems to feel that_____.A. the risk of catching cancer is on the riseB. the whole earth is coming to seem likea huge carcinogenC. the risk of catching cancer isn’t so great as people thinkD. cancer can be cured if the environment is cleaned up8. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cancer and EnvironmentB. The Fear Caused by CancersC. Data on Cancer IncidenceD. Cancer and its InvestigationCHigh-quality customer service is preached（宣扬）by many, but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done.Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store, but instead will warn their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangersand anyone who will listen. Store managers are often the last to hear complaints. “Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers,” said Paula Courtney, President of the Verde group. “The store loses the customer, but the shopper must also find a replacement.”The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered（塞满了的）shelves, overloaded racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude sales people.During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants to direct customers to empty parking spaces. Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store display, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions. Most importantly, salespeople should be skillful and polite with angry customers.“Retailers who’re enthusiastic and friendly are more likely to smooth ove r issues than those who aren’t so friendly.” said Professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something as a greeter at the store entrance would help.”Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.9. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?A. Most shopper s won’t complain even if they have had unhappy experiences.B. Shoppers would rather tell their unhappy experiences to people around them.C. Few customers believe the service will be improved after their complaints.D. It is difficult for customers to have easy access to store managers.10. What does Paula Courtney imply by saying the underlined sentence in paragraph2?A. New customers are sure to replace old ones.B. It is not likely the shopper can find the same products in other stores.C. The same products can be bought in other retail stores.D. Not complaining to the manager causes the shopper some trouble too.11. What contributes most to smoothing over issues with customers?A. Manners of the salespeople.B. Hiring of efficient employees.C. Huge supply of goods for sale.D. Design of the store display.12. To achieve better shopping experiences, customers are advised to ______.A. put pressure on stores to improve their serviceB. settle their disagreements with stores in a friendly wayC. voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directlyD. shop around and make comparisons between storesDYou hear the comment all the time: the U.S. economy looks good by figures, but it doesn’t feel good. Why doesn’t ever-greater wealth promote ever-greater happiness? It is a question that dates at least to the appearance in 1958 of The Wealthy Society by John Kenneth Galbraith, who died recently at 97.The Wealthy Society is a modern classic because it helped describe a new moment in the human condition. For most of history, “hunger, sickness, and cold” threatened nearly everyone, Galbraith wrote. “Poverty was found everywhere in that world. Obviously it is not of ours.” After World War II, the fear of another Great Depression gave way to an economic growth. In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.To Galbraith, materials had gone mad and would cause discontent. Through advertising, companies conditioned consumers to buy things they didn’t really want or need. Because so much spending was artificial, it would be unsatisfying. Meanwhile, government spending that would make everyone better off was being cut down because people wrongly considered government only as “a necessary bad.”It’s often said that only the rich are getting ahead; everyone else i s standing still or falling behind. Well, there are many undeserving rich — overpaid chief managers, for instance. But over any meaningful period, most people’s incomes are increasing. From 1995 to 2004, people feel “squeezed” because their rising incomes often don’t satisfy their rising wants — for bigger homes, more health care, more education, and faster Internet connections.The other great disappointment is that it has not got rid of insecurity. People regard job stability as part of their standard of living. As company unemploymentincreased, that part has gradually become weaker. More workers fear they’ve become “the disposable American,” as Louis Uchitelle puts it in his book by the same name. Because so much previous suffering and social conflict resulted from poverty, the arrival of widespread wealth suggested utopian (乌托邦式的) possibilities. Up to a point, wealth succeeds. There is much less physical suffering than before. People are better off. Unfortunately, wealth also creates new complaints.Advanced societies need economic growth to satisfy the multiplying wants of their citizens. But the search for growth cause new anxieties and economic conflicts that disturb the social order. Wealth sets free the individual, promising that everyone can choose a unique way to self-accomplishment. But the promise is so unreasonable that it leads to many disappointments and sometimes inspires choices that have anti-social consequences, including family breakdown. Figures indicate that happiness has not risen with incomes.Should we be surprised? Not really. We’ve simply confirmed an old truth: the seeking of wealth does not always end with happiness.13. The Wealthy Society is a book ________.A. about poverty in the pastB. written by Louis UchitelleC. indicating that people are becoming worse offD. about why happiness does not rise with wealth14. According to Galbraith, people feel discontented because ________.A. materialism has run wild in modern societyB. they are in fear of another Great DepressionC. public spending hasn’t been cut down as expectedD. the government has proved to be necessary but ugly15. What does Louis Uchitelle mean by “the disposable American” ?A. People with a stable job.B. Workers who no longer have secure jobs.C. Those who see job stability as part of their living standard.D. People who have a sense of security because of their rising incomes.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余项。

Where can I apply for one? W: Go to the office at the end of the hall.(Text 3)W: Why will Mr. Rogers be out of the office next week? To take a holiday or go on business?M: Neither. He’s traveling to see his niece. She’s getting married next Thursday.(Text 4)W: May I leave the office early today? I have to pick up my parents at the airport.M: But you’re supposed to meet Mr. Black at 4 o’clock, aren’t you? Can’t you ask someone else to go to the airport?(Text 5)M: Did you hear about Rosa’s sister? She was trapped inside a lift last week.W: Is she all right?M: Yes. The workers managed to open the door in the end.W: That’s great to hear.(Text 6)W: Did you see the France-Wales match on TV last night? Exciting! Wales won! Everyone was over the moon!M: Yeah, I was too. I watched it with my dad. Why did Gareth Jones quit halfway though--- did the referee decide he was in the wrong?W: No, he did something to his ankle though, didn’t he? I don’t think it’s serious though. He’s in the team for next Saturday.M: Great, I’ll be watching that too. Do you want to come round to my place and watch it with me? W: Wow, good idea.(Text 7)M: I’ve just been to see that new musical that everyone’s talking about.W: Oh really, and is the plot as good as people say? I think the writer has won awards for his earlier work.M: Yeah, and it’s not bad at all, although there are one or two bits that didn’t work, which I got rather angry by. For me, what stood out were the people playing the two leading roles. They were excellent. But I found the songs unimpressive for the most part.W: Well, it sounds as if I should go and see it sometime, anyway.(Text 8)M: You moved to a new place last month, didn’t you?W: Yeah. It was a pity I had to leave that flat because in many ways I liked being there. It was warm, even during the coldest nights of January, and the owner was fair, charging me a reasonable rent and immediately getting things fixed whenever anything went wrong.M: That was good.W: Yeah, but he couldn’t do anything about the couple next door, who seemed to spend nearly all their time having arguments. I tried turning up the TV but I could still hear them, and when I saw the woman in the hall one morning and mentioned it to her, she got angry. So, sadly, I had to pack my bags and find somewhere else.(Text 9)M: Lily, what did you do when you decided to walk through the Andes Mountains to Machu Picchu?Was there anywhere you could get used to being so high up?W: Well, the walk takes me to above 4,000 meters, but of course there’s nothing like that in this country.The highest mountain here is only 2,000 meters, so I cou ldn’t. I thought of spending some nights out in the tent during some particularly bad winter weather here, but decided that might put me off going at all. So I got into the habit of doing around fifteen kilometers on foot through the hills near here each evening.M: So how did the walking go?W: It was wonderful. A fantastic experience! Even though sometimes it was very hard going and naturally there were a few problems along the way.M: And what, looking back over the whole journey, would you say was the most exciting moment? W: There were several magical experiences, such as when we walked through the Sun Gate at theentrance to Machu Picchu itself, seeing all the ruined buildings and narrow streets. Then, in the evening, after most of the tourists had gone, we saw the most beautiful sunset. That’s the most exciting moment I enjoyed.(Text 10)W: And now on to this month’s best short breaks. There’s nothing like a long weekend in a foreign city to make you feel good and this month we’v e found some great breaks in Paris, Madrid, Rome and Venice with breaks ranging from two nights to seven. You can find more about them on our website.But our favorite short break of the month is three nights in Barcelona. The cost of the Barcelona break pays for your flight and your hotel. It also includes a full continental breakfas t.Evening meals are not included. You can stay at a hotel of your choice and the hotels range from 2-star to 5-star—there are discounts however, if one of the nights you stay is Sunday. This applies to all the hotels. Barcelona is a city for art lovers, but we all know how much sightseeing costs can be, so for a very small extra cost this break also offers a discount card that will give you money off many of the city sights. The card also allows you 10% discount in certain restaurants around the city.This Barcelona break can be enjoyed anytime between the 5th and the 31st of Oc tober, although booking must be made before 30th of September. You can book through our website or, if you prefer, you can telephone direct. This is a fantastic offer. Don’t miss it.。
