听力原文:(29) The recent increase in car stealing has alarmed the police, who are looking

听力原文: (29) The recent increase in car stealing has alarmed the police, who are looking for what they now believe must be a well-organized gang of professional car thieves.

Most of the thefts have taken place in the rich residential areas round South-well Park, where last week alone, twenty-two car thefts were reported to the local police. Of course, (30)only one has been found abandoned in Rocking-hill Palace road twenty miles away. The others have not been found yet, except tot one which had been falsely reported missing. The owner later admitted that he had forgotten where he had parked it a few days before.

An interesting aspect of these thefts is that nearly all the missing vehicles have been taken from locked garages. The owners now admitted that they may have left the car doors unlocked, but only one owner was not certain whether he had locked the garage dour. The police have therefore assumed that the gang find it easier to break into garages, where vehicles are often left unlocked at night, than into locked cars, parked on the road-side in day time or at night. (31)They advise car owner to lock up their cars, even when they are kept in locked garages.

(30)

A.The increase in driving offences.

B.The increase in professional gangs.

C.The increase in car stealing.

D.The increase in car owners.

听力原文: In recent years, many Americans of both sexes and various ages have become increasingly interested in improving their bodies. (29) They have become more devoted to physical fitness. Many persons have a strong desire to be more physically fit.

By nature, Americans are enthusiastic, and energetic about bobbies or pastimes. And now many of them apply this enthusiasm, optimism, and energy to

running. (30) As a result, there are more running clubs to join and numerous books and magazines to read about running.

The desire for American people to be physically fit could probably be explained by a "passion" for good health. The high rate of heart attacks in the 1960s has caused an increase of interest in improving the health condition of human body. Middle-aged men especially suffer from heart attacks. Thus, they are one group strongly interested in taking more physical exercise. (31) In fact, many doctors often encourage their patients to become more physically active, especially those who have inactive jobs. It is quite interesting to note that the rate of heart attacks began to decrease between 1972 and 1974 and it is still decreasing now.

It seems that physical fitness has now become a new "love" of Americans. But will it last very long? Nobody knows. Only time will tell—or until another "new passion" comes along and takes its place.

29. Why are Americans so interested in physical exercise?

30.What happens when American people apply great enthusiasm in running?

31.What kinds of patients are especially encouraged to take part in physical exercise?

(4)

A.Because of their hobbies and pastimes.

B.Because of their enthusiasm for sports.

C.Because of their fear of heart attacks.

D.Because of their strong desire for good health.

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.

听力原文: Were you the first or the last child in your family? Or were you a middle or an only child? Some people think it matters where you were born in your family. But there are different ideas about what birth order means. Some people say that oldest children are smart and strong-willed. They are very likely to be successful (29) . The reason for this is simple. Parents have a lot of time for their first child; they give him or her a lot of attention. So this child is very likely to do well. An only child will succeed for the same reason. What happens to the other children in the family? Middle children don't get so much attention, so they don't feel that important (30) . If a family has many children, the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd. The youngest child, though, often gets special treatment. He or she is the baby. Often this child grows up to be funny and charming. Do you believe these ideas about birth order too? A recent study saw things quite differently. The study found that first children believed in family rules. They didn't take many chances in their lives. They usually followed orders. Rules didn't mean as much to later children in the family. They went out and followed their own ideas. They took chances and they often did better in life (31) .

(30)

A.They strongly believes in family rules.

B.They are very likely to succeed in life.

C.They tend to take responsibility for themselves.

D.They are in the habit of obeying their parents.
