听力原文: Voice One: A bottlenose dolphin named Maui plays a computer game, helping scientists create a unique language [that] they hope humans and dolphins will understand.

It's not based on human words, but on a specific dolphin sound. Guess which one. Not its bark, or its clicks, made famous by Flipper. Words in this new language are whistled.

Dolphins typically whistle to each other under water, through a special structure just beneath their blowhole. Researchers say their whistles have meaning. For example, each dolphin learns from its mom its own signature whistle. So in human terms when they greet each other, it's not just, "Hi" It's, "Hi, my name is ..."--in this case, Maui.

Ken Marten and his team at Earthtrust in Sea Life Park Research Lab in Hawaii want to better understand how dolphins communicate. So for the next ten years, they will literally whistle while they work, creating this special language.

Voice Two: The rest of my career is dedicated to talking to these guys, so I guess you could call me Doctor Dolittle now.

Voice One: After studying dolphin whistles, Marten invented distinct whistles for various objects with which dolphins are familiar.

Which sound can be thought as dolphin's words?

A.Its bark.

B.Its clicks.

C.Its whistle.

D.Its crying.

听力原文:M: I'm sorry I'm late, Cindy.

W: That's all tight, Joe. My house isn't that easy to find. But you know, you wouldn't have gotten lost if you had a "smart" car.

M: A smart car? What's that?

W: I just read a magazine article about some new technology that can make a car smart. One device is a computerized map display and a synthesized voice, you must enter the address where you want to go, and the voice tells you how to get there, street by street.

M: Hey, that's just like my brother. He never gets lost, and he's always telling me the best route. So what else will smart cars be able to do?

W: Well, the article said that they'll be equipped with radar warning systems that will warn drivers if they're getting too close to other cars with an alarm signal, and they'll even put on the brakes if the drivers don't.

M: Tell me, Cindy, will these cars be smart enough to fill themselves up with gas?

W: Not that I know of. Why do you ask?

M: Well, I'm late not because I got lost—I'm late because I ran out of gas on the way over here.

听力原文: Most of us take our ability to listen for granted. In fact, we have different listening styles for different occasions. How successful we are as listeners may depend in part on choosing the right listening style. for the situation. Perhaps the most basic listening style. is appreciative listening. We listen appreciatively when we enjoy music, a bird's song or the murmur of the book. We need a different style, one called discriminative listening, when we want to single out one particular sound from a noisy environment. You discriminate, for example, when you listen for a friend's voice in a crowded room. We use a firm style. of listening, comprehensive listening, when we want to understand. When we listen to directions or instructions, we are using this style. The last listening style, critical listening, is the one we will examine most closely. Critical listeners are the most active of all listeners, and critical listening, the most helpful. Critical listeners evaluate what they hear, and decide if another person's message is logical, worthwhile or has value. We need to be critical listeners when someone wants us to buy something, vote a certain way or support a particular idea. We also need to be critical listeners in school where we are supposed to listen and think at the same time.

(35)

A.We should not take our ability to listen for granted.

B.We should have the right listening style. for a particular situation.

C.We should try different listening styles one after another.

D.We should be faithful to one listening style. all the time.
