听力原文： Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life's essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.
But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the number of people who didn't have breakfast increased foam 8.8 million to 11.7 million. For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. "Going without breakfast does not affect performance," said Arnold E. Bender, former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth Collage in London, "nor does giving people breakfast improve performance."
Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly indicated, and most of the recent wonk involves children, not adults.

A．Several studies have been done in the past few years.
B．The omission of breakfast does no harm to one' s health.
C．Adults have especially made studies in this field.
D．Eating little in the morning is good for health.
听力原文： I was a freshman in law school. In a few years I would be out in practice. I was well aware of the importance of the right kind of wife in furthering a lawyer's career. Successful lawyers were, almost without exception, married to beautiful, gracious, intelligent women. With one omission, Polly fitted these specifications perfectly.
I had long wanted Polly. My desire for this young woman was not emotional in nature. I wanted Polly simply because she had the makings of a fit wife for me. She was beautiful, gracious, but not intelligent. Yet, I believed that under my guidance, she would make a qualified wife for me. It is, after all, easier to make a beautiful dumb girl smart than to make an ugly smart girl beautiful. After our very first date, I detected that the biggest problem with her was that she did not know how to think. So I decided to give her lessons in logic.
Fortunately, my efforts proved worthwhile. I had made a logician out of Polly, and she was worthy of me at last. Thus, the time had come to acquaint her with my affection. To my astonishment, Polly turned me down. She employed all that I had taught her to reject me. I was completely defeated. In my frustration, an old saying flashed into my mind, "Pick up a stone only to drop it on one's own feet".

A．Philosophy.
B．Psychology.
C．Logic.
D．Law.
听力原文： Travelers are booking hotel rooms in cities closer to home this summer, with the exception of two European magnets, according to a new survey.
Las Vegas scored the most July and August room reservations for the second year in a row, while another gambling Mecca, Reno, along with Honolulu moved onto the top 10 list for the first time, according to a tally of seasonal bookings from Hotels. com. Las Vegas has successfully pitched itself as an alternative family destination even in the desert' s hottest months. It's like a theme park city. Almost every hotel has a theme park inside it, so there's a lot to do for families.
Orlando displaced the Big Apple in the No. 2 spot, San Francisco moved up a notch into fifth place and Miami dropped out of the running, probably because of a decline in international tourism, Hotels. com president Bob Diener said. Paris's slip to No. 10 from No. 5 last year wasn't surprising given some Americans' resentment of France's lack of support for U.S. policy in Iraq, Diener said. But the omission of Boston was unexpected, especially in a year in which patriotism is a resounding theme in travel marketing, he said.
Overall summer travel is expected to rise 2.5 percent this year, with 83 percent of Americans planning at least one trip and 28 percent planning to travel more than last year, according to studies from the Travel Industry Association.
Which city got the most room reservations last summer？
A．Orlando.
B．Honolulu.
C．Las Vegas.
D．Boston.
Writing, as recognized by most people, is genuinely formal and readily tangible, but speaking language has merits of its own. It is usually more economic in human face-to-face communication, and it allows the omission of many contextual or commonsensical information. This permits the oral language to be more simplistic and flexible than written language. What is difficult or even impossible to achieve in written language can sometimes be achieved in oral language in a convenient way that does not demand extra efforts. On the other hand, speech can be more difficult to manage in linguistic studies due to such factors that make it readily acceptable as a more economic way of expression.
It is in spontaneous, operational speech that the grammar is most fully exploited, such that its semantic frontiers expand and its potential for meaning is enhanced. This is why we have to look to spoken discourse for at least some of the evidence on which to base our theory of the language. Philosophers of language have tended to take over the folk belief, typical of a written culture, according to which spoken language is disorganized and featureless, while only writing shows a wealth of structure and purity of pattern. This is 'demonstrated' by transcriptions in which speech is reduced to writing and made to look like a dog' s dinner. Now speech was not meant to be written down, so it often looks silly, just as writing often sounds silly when it is read aloud; but the disorder and fragmentation are a feature of the way it is transcribed. Even a sympathetic transcription like that above cannot represent it adequately, because it shows none of the intonation or variation in tempo and loudness; but it does show the way it is organized grammatically, and so enable us to analyze it as a text.
The author compares spoken language to "a dance" to say that ______ .
A．it is changeable and flexible
B．it is rigid and simple
C．it is lively and pleasant
D．it is easy to learn
W: Oh, hello, Mr. Burns. This is Susan Thompson speaking. I'm glad you ring back so soon. There's a serious problem, I'm afraid. You know that order for 500 cases of Top Whiskey we put recently？
M: Oh, yes. I saw to it myself. What's the problem？ Hasn't it arrived？
W: Well, in a way, but it's stuck at the customs. There's something wrong with the declaration, it seems. Some kind of omission or error.
M: Oh, really？ That's strange. Do you know what it is？
W: Well, I only heard that some of the details were incomplete and the customs can't let the consignment through.
M: Ms. Thompson, I'll tell you what I'll do. Our forwarding agents are handling this delivery and they're generally very reliable. Er, let me just get on to them.
W: Yes, if you would. And can you let me know as soon as possible when I can have the Whiskey？ Time's rather short and our customers are waiting for the wine, you know.
M: Of course. I'll see to it, Ms. Thompson, and if at all possible, you'll get a call today.
W: Well, getting the delivery today would suit me better. Oh, one other thing, I'm out of the office after 12 o'clock. If you call me after this time, would you leave a message with our switchboard operator？ I'll tell her to expect your call.
M: Yes, I spoke to her before. I'll get things moving as quickly as I can.
W: Right. Thanks. Goodbye then, Mr. Burns.
M: Goodbye. You'll be hearing from us very soon.
