A soap is a popular television drama serial （连续剧) about the daily lives and problems of

A soap is a popular television drama serial (连续剧) about the daily lives and problems of a group of people. The stories make TV viewers laugh, cry and wait to see what happens next. Thus, viewers would come.

For some soap fans, it is like the end of the world when "Another World" ends after 35-year run. That's because soaps these days can't satisfy devoted viewers. Altogether, daily viewers have decreased from 69.6 million to 48.8 million since 1991. For instance, ABC's "All My Children" drew 8.3 million in 1991, now 4.5 million.

One reason is that soaps are difficult in an era marked by various electronic games. Girls who used to watch daytime dramas with their mothers now go to their rooms where they can watch cable on their own TV set, or play video games, or wander on the Internet. Besides, the audience was too old, at 47 on average(平均). TV stations have to get the right viewers because women, from 18 to 49, have the income to buy the things pushed by advertisers. It's gotten to the point where it's financially (经济上) driven. But networks aren't about to drop soaps, as long as advertisers like them so much. It's very efficient and cheap to add heavily a number of ads. On the other hand, there's not much to replace them. Talk and other shows have a bad record, and they don't reach a concentrated female audience. The channels believe that they will attract younger viewers, the next generation(一代人) of soap watchers, by starring new characters and putting in fresh blood into plot(情节) lines. There is no secret. People want a good story.

The soap industry has to work harder to attract the audience for the following reasons except that ______.

A．advertisers and faithful viewers need it

B．other TV shows are much better and going to beat the soap

C．there are various ways of enjoyment

D．the young generation don't like soaps

听力原文：Andrew Warhol was born in 1928 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He studied at the Car

听力原文： Andrew Warhol was born in 1928 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He studied at the Carnegie Institute of Technology. By 1950, Andy Warhol, as he now called himself, moved to New York City and pursued a successful career as s commercial designer and illustrator.

In the 1960s, Warhol became one of the leaders of .the pop art movement. Taking its name from "popular", this art used images in popular culture for its subject matter. Probably one of Warhol's most famous images is called Campbell's Soup Can -- a picture of a brand of soup popular in the U. S.. Other famous works are Green Coca-Cola Bottles and the three-dimensional Brillo Box, which looks exactly like the box of soap pads sold in the supermarket.

Now, Warhol also wanted to simplify the process of making art, so he silk-screened photographs onto painted canvas. He created very striking, brightly colored portraits of celebrities. The most famous are of Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, and Elvis Presley. To make his art look even more mechanical, he would repeat many images of the same thing on the canvas, sometimes just changing the color or a few little details. He even named the place where he produced his art "The Factory".

And Warhol was also a film-maker and a publisher. His magazine called Interview was filled with articles and gossip about celebrities. With his trademark bushy white hair and his association with celebrities, this man who seemed somewhat shy was always in the public eye. It seems that the more fun he made of art and fame, the more famous Andy Warhol became. He died in 1987 and is the subject of the largest museum devoted to a single artist: The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, his hometown.

This talk is about the American artist Andy Warhol. When was this artist born？

A．In 1928.

B．In 1938.

C．In 1950.

D．In 1960.

Brazil has become one of the developing world's great successes at reducing population gro

wth--but more by accident than design. While countries such as India have made joint efforts to reduce birth rates, Brazil has had better result without really trying, says George Martine at Harvard.

Brazil's population growth rate has dropped from 2.99% a year between 1951 and 1960 to 1.93% a year between 1981 and 1990, and Brazilian women now have only 2.7 children on average. Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990, an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries.

Martine puts it down to, among other things, soap operas and installment (分期付款)plans introduced in the 1970s. Both played an important, although indirect, role in lowering the birth rate. Brazil is one of the world's biggest producers of soap operas. Globo, Brazil's most popular television network, shows three hours of soaps six nights a week, while three others show at least one hour a night. Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living the high life in big cities.

"Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of reproduction, they describe middle and upper class values-not many children, different attitudes towards sex, women working, "says Martine. "They sent this image to all pans of Brazil and made people conscious of other patterns of behavior. and other values, which were put into a very attractive pack age."

Meanwhile, the installment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers. "This led to an enormous change in consumption patterns and consumption was incompatible (不相容的) with unlimited reproduction," says Martine.

According to the passage ,Brazil has cut back its population growth ______.

A．by educating its citizens

B．by careful family planning

C．by developing TV programmes

D．by chance
