Many traditional foods such as beef and potatoes have given way to poultry and pasta (面食) dishes. Fast food bas also become more available, and hamburger restaurants now rival the traditional fish-and-chip shops in popularity. Numerous Chinese and Indian restaurants and pizza houses provide take-away service, and many pubs serve anything from snacks to fun meals as well as alcoholic beverages. Traditional English dishes include roost beef and Yorkshire pudding and steak and kidney pie.

The English generally eat three meals a day. A traditional English breakfast consists of any or all of the following: bacon, sausages, grilled (烤炙的) or fried tomatoes, mushrooms, eggs, or toast. Black pudding (blood pudding) may also appear on the menu. However, fewer people now eat a cooked breakfast on a regular basis, preferring various combinations of carnal, toast, juice or fruit, and tea or coffee. The midday meal is usually referred to as lunch and the evening meal as dinner or, when it is less formal, as supper. Working-class people tend to call the midday meal dinner and the meal they have in the early evening "tea." The tradition of afternoon tea, when tea, biscuits, and cakes are enjoyed at about 4 pm, has declined. Similarly, many people no longer have more than a light lunch or snack in the middle of the day.

听力原文: The woman's liberation movement has become an important social movement throughout much of the world today. In the past few decades, it has become one of the most important social movements in the US. Women have been fighting for equal tights hi the U.S. since early 1900s, but it was really in the 1960s and 70s that women began to gain equal fights and treatment in the fields of politics, education, employment, and the home.

As for tile field of politics, today's politicians are well aware that women have become a powerful political force in the country. One of the reasons for this is that there are about 70 million women of voting age. There are, in fact, 7 million mom women of voting age than there are men of voting age in the U.S. today.

As far as the field of employment is concerned, about 42 percent of the entire American work force today is made up of women; there are 38.8 million women workers.

Earlier this year, I visited my doctor and explained that 1 felt very tired and asked for a blood test to establish whether I was suffering from B12 deficiency. I was told I was much too young and that only people in their 80s suffered B12 deficiency. I told him he was wrong and that research was carried out on my family 30 years ago.

I have always believed that prevention is better than cure. I now know why I love Kellogg's Honey Nut Cornflakes. They contain vitamins, including B12! If foods contain added vitamins, as

you suggest in your article, then B12 deficiency and diseases associated with it should be left to the past.

听力原文: There have been many great inventions, things that change the way we live. The first great invention was one that is still very important today--the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things and to travel long distances.

For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that had as much effect as the wheel. Then in the early 1800s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People did not have to explore much any more. They began to work instead to make life better.

In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the electric light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today.

The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help get over diseases. They worked very well. They made people healthier and let them live longer lives, By the 1960s most people could expect to live to be at least 60.

By this time most people had a very good life. Of course new inventions continued to be made. But man now had a desire to explore again. The world was known to man, but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their steps into space.

听力原文:In societies in which individuals choose their own partners, young people typical

听力原文: In societies in which individuals choose their own partners, young people typically dote before marriage. Dating is the process of spending time with future partners to become familiar with each other. Dates may take place in groups or between just two persons. When doting becomes more serious it may be called as engagement. Couples usually spend some period of time engaged before they marry. A woman who is engaged is known as the man's fiancee, and the man is known as the woman's fiance. Men will give an engagement ring to their fiancee as a symbol of the agreement to marry.

In the past, dating and engagement were special stages in the selection of a future husband or wife. Each stage represented an increasing level of promise and closeness. Although this remains true to some degree, since the 1960s these stages have tended to mix with one another.

In general, people tend to dote and many people with whom they have characteristics in common. Characteristics that couples tend to share include race, religion, economic status, age, and the social status of their parents.

In the United States, marital similarity has increased for some aspects and decreased for others in recent years. People seek partners who are from similar background. For example, an individual is more likely to many someone who has a similar mount of education. At the same time, Americans are less likely to require that the partners they want to marry have similar religion or social class. However, they still tend to marry someone of the same race. For instance, marriages between African Americans and whites make up less than 1 percent of all marriages in the United States.

(23)

A.After they date with each other for some time.

B.When the couple decide to get married soon.

C.When the man gives the woman engagement ting.
