听力原文: April Fool's Day started in the sixteenth century in Europe. Before that time, New Year's Day was celebrated on April 1st. Then a new calendar was introduced called the Gregorian calendar. January 1st became the first day of the year, but many people did not know about it. So those who continued to celebrate New Year's Day on April 1st were laughed at. They were called fools.
Nowadays we play jokes on people on April 1st. For example, someone might put salt in the sugar container so another person could "accidentally" put it in their coffee. Or someone might change the time on another person's alarm clock so that person would unknowingly wake up earlier or later than planned. Or maybe a person would tell a lie to make someone else shocked. After we play the trick, we say "April Fool." Then the poor person realizes he was fooled. In many countries newspapers and the other media participate with false headlines or news stories. It is generally done in the spirit of fun and doesn't cause any real harm to anyone. Do you have any great jokes to play on others? Try it out an April 1st. Just don't forget to say "April Fool" when the other person begins looking a little confused.

A.Play jokes on others.
B.Say "April Fool" to others.

第5题
In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain why China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modem times. It is probable that the answer is to be found in the social and economic history of China, where a static(静态的) society under a relatively kind ruling of scholars contrasts with the potentially revolutionary and dynamic society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages. In recent years, the Chinese government has been making every effort to catch up with the West again, and there is little doubt that the gap is being reduced year by year. But will China avoid the West's mistakes?
So far, how many volumes of the book have been published?
A.Five.
B.Four.
C.Three.
D.None.

Signboards that notified people of services available were placed outside doors in Greece and Egypt around 1500 B. C. —a form. of advertising. With the invention of printing, advertising began to take on new forms. About in 1477, in London, the first printed advertisement in English announced a prayer book sale. The first newspaper advertisement appeared on the back page of a London newspaper in 1625. It was not until 1704 that paid advertisements were printed in the Untied Sates. By 1771 there were 31 newspapers in the Colonies, and all of them carried advertising. Today, of course, we know that advertising is done not only in newspapers, but also in magazines, on the radio, and on television.
The first "commercials" appeared on radio about in 1920. Commercials on television developed mostly after World War II. The idea spread very quickly and today the advertising that is done on TV is so familiar to all of us that many people can remember the commercials even better than the shows they see!
Advertisements are employed NOT to ______.
A.inform. people of a product for sale and promote a service
B.tell the difference between different products
C.urge people to take some actions
D.make someone familiar to the people and get famous

The majority of people, about nine out of ten, are right-handed.【71】until recently, people who were left-handed were considered【72】, and once children showed this tendency they were forced to use their right hands. Today left-handedness is generally【73】, but it is still a disadvantage in a world【74】most people are right-handed. For example, most tools and implements are still【75】for right-handed people.
In sports【76】contrast, doing things with the left hand or foot is often an advantage. Throwing, kicking, punching or batting from the "【77】" side may result in throwing【78】many opponents who are more accustomed to dealing with the【79】of players who are right-handed. This is why, in many【80】at a professional level, a【81】proportion of players are left-handed than in the population as a whole.
The word "right" in many languages means "correct" or is【82】with lawfulness, whereas the words associated【83】"left", such as "sinister", generally have【84】associations. Moreover, among a number of primitive peoples, there is【85】close association between death and the left hand.
In the past, in【86】Western societies, children were often forced to use their right hands, especially to write with. In some cases the left hand was【87】behind the child's back so that it could not be used. If, in the future, they are allowed to choose,【88】will certainly be more left-handers, and probably【89】people with minor psychological disturbances as a result of being forced to use their【90】hand.

There are two ideas—one, living within your means, and the idea that living on debt is a great equalizer(平衡装置). They both have validity because it is important that someone live within their means over their lifetime. When people are young and they are earning money, but they have very little savings, they almost have to borrow in order to own a house or own a car. But as they grow older, they should develop the habit of saving, so that by the time they reach the end of their earning life, they have savings to live on in retirement, and live within their means.
"Buy now, pay later" worked very well for us in the 1990s, but one suspects it won't work forever. The only thing that concerns me is that Americans are so contented, so optimistic, so unconcerned about any bumps in the road that many American households, not all of them, but many American households are very heavily extended in personal credit, a lot of credit card debt. People are paying very high prices for houses and borrowing heavily against those prices; and if we do run into a bump in the road, a recession, there are going to be a lot of households, not all of them, but many households that Ml be severely squeezed. That means we're more vulnerable to serious financial distress than Japan is. Japan has been in financial distress for ten years, but one reason it's been able to weather that is that the households had been very conservative, had a lot of savings, were very liquid, and were able to weather difficult times. And many American households would now be less able to do that because they are so heavily in debt.
We know from the passage that credit cards
A.make Americans get deeper and deeper in debt
B.are likely to be abandoned by more Americans
C.will soon become a symbol of American life
D.will help solve potential financial problems

The pen is more powerful than the sword (剑). There have been many writers who used their pens to fight things that were wrong. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them. She was born in the USA in 1811. One of her books not only made her famous but has been described as one that excited the world, and was helpful in causing a civil war and freezing the slaves. The civil war was the American Civil War of 1861, in which the Northern States fought the Southern States and finally won. This book was named "Uncle Toms Cabin". There was time when every English-speaking man, woman, and child has read this novel that did so much to stop slavery. Not many people read it today, but it is still very interesting. The book has shown us how a warm-hearted writer can arouse (唤起) peoples sympathies (同情). The writer herself had neither been to the Southern States nor been a slave. The Southern Americans were very angry at the novel, which they said did not at all represent (代表) true state of affairs,but the Northern Americans were wildly excited over it, and were so inspired by it that they were ready to go to war to let the slaves free.

第11题
The West begun to take more notice of the East. (西方国家开始越来越关注东方国家)The fifth volume of an enormous work re-assessing the Chinese contribution to science and technology is to be published next year. The first volume, which was published twenty years ago, set the tone for the whole work. In it, evidence was given to show that many inventions which, until then, western historians had claimed for Europe, were made first in China. The attempt to rewrite the intellectual history of the world was not received without protest by some reputable historians. However, the evidence that has been presented so far in the first four volumes has persuaded many historians who were skeptical at first. China's invention of paper, printing, the magnetic compass and gunpowder has never been disputed, but this new history has added advanced bridge design, mechanical clocks, paddle boats and many other inventions to the list.
In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain why China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modern times. It is probable that the answer is to be found in the social and economic history of China, where a static society under a relatively benevolent regime (仁慈的政体) of scholar-gentry (学者绅士) contrasts with the potentially revolutionary and dynamic society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages. In recent years, the Chinese government has been making every effort to catch up with the West again, and there is little doubt that the gap is being reduced year by year. But will China avoid the West's mistakes?
