听力原文： A unique laboratory at the University of Chicago is busy only at night. It is a

dream laboratory where researchers are at work studying dreamers. Their findings have revealed that everyone dreams from three to seven times a night, although in ordinary life a person may remember none or only one of his dreams. While the subjects, usually students, are asleep, special machines record their brain waves and eye movements as well as the body movements that signal the end of a dream. Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly. Observers report that once the dream has started, one's body relaxes and his eyes become more active, as if the curtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine indicates that the dream is over, a buzzer wakens the sleeper. He sits up, records his dream, and goes back to sleep, perhaps to dream some more. Researchers have found that if the dreamer is wakened immediately after his dream, he can keep the dream. If he is allowed to sleep even five more minutes, his memory of the dream will have faded.

What are the researchers at the University of Chicago studying？

A．Different kinds of dreams.

B．The content of dreams.

C．Dreamers while they dream.

听力原文： Today we are going to talk about a species of fish that is rather unique: Today's lecture is about sea horses, if you've seen a sea horse, you may have noted that it has a horse-like head attached to its body. The sea horse has a long snout that is good for sucking. Instead of scales like most fish, sea horses have skin that is stretched over bony plates. The body extends to a prehensile tail, meaning that the tail can be used to grasp. The sea horse may grasp sea grass or coral to keep it stable in a moving current.

The sea horse has fins on its back that it can use to propel it through the water. However, sea horses aren't very good swimmers. They do not move quickly over great distances. The sea horse also has chest fins that it uses for stabilization. The chest fins help the sea horse float in an upright position.

One particularly unique feature of sea horse is that only the male becomes pregnant. The female inserts ripe eggs into the male' pouch, where they are fertilized. The eggs become embedded in the pouch wall.

What is this lecture mainly about？

A．Usual Species of fish.

B．Characteristics of a unique sea animal.

C．The harvest of fish eggs.

听力原文：（9) The labor problems were the latest had news for an industry that has been hit

听力原文： (9) The labor problems were the latest had news for an industry that has been hit in recent times by high production costs and slumping demand. Tea industry officials say wages are lower in other teaproducing nations. Labor costs account for more than half the total cost of tea production. The India Tea Association's deputy secretary, Pranjal Neog, says Indian tea, once predominant in world markets, has been steadily losing out as a result. The tea industry says it is also facing problems in the domestic market, which consumes 70% of the beverage being produced in the country. In recent years, (9) demand has stagnated or even declined in some areas due to the growing popularity of such beverages as soft drinks—particularly among younger people. Indian tea has traditionally dominated world markets since a tew cases were exported to Britain in the mid-19th century. (10) But now, says tea growers, they only see tough times ahead.

The tea industry declined in India due to all the following reasons EXCEPT

A．falling demand.

B．increasing popularity of soft drinks.

C．high production costs.

听力原文：The agricultural revolution in the 19th century involved two things: the inventio

听力原文： The agricultural revolution in the 19th century involved two things: the invention of labor-saving machinery and the development of scientific agriculture. Labor-saving machinery naturally appeared first where labor was scarce. "In Europe." said Thomas Jefferson, "the object is to make the most of their land, labor being rich enough; here it is to make the most of our labor, land being rich enough." It was in the United States, therefore, that the great advances in nineteenth-century agricultural machinery first came.

At the opening of the century, with the exception of crude equipment, farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural implements on their backs; by 1860, most of the machinery in use today had been designed in an early form. The most important of the inventions was the iron plow. As early as 1790 Charles Newbold of New Jersey had been working on the idea of a cast-iron plow andspent his entire fortune in introducing his invention. The farmers, however, were not interested in it, believing that the iron poisoned the soil and made the weeds row. Nevertheless, many people devoted their attention to the plow, until in 1869 James Oliver of South Bend, Indiana turned out the first steel plow.

(33)

A．The invention of machine that can save labor and the progress of scientific agriculture.

B．The invention of crude equipments and agricultural implements.

C．The advance of agriculture machinery and the iron plow.

D．The idea of a cast-iron plow and steel plow.

听力原文：Teams of teachers and school administrators from at least fourteen American citie

听力原文： Teams of teachers and school administrators from at least fourteen American cities are at a conference in Washington. The American Federation of Teachers, a labor union, holds the Quest conference every two years.

This year, one of the subjects is a tutoring program that provides extra help to students in Rochester, New York. The Rochester City School District was one of five in the nation recognized by the Bush administration for their tutoring programs. Tutoring is big business in the United States these days. There are private learning centers where parents can take their children after school. Test preparation companies are also doing well. One reason for all this tutoring is the growing competition for places at top universities. Another influence is the Bush administration’s federal education law, called No Child Left Behind. The law requires services like free tutoring for poor students at schools that fail to meet educational goals for three years. There is federal money to pay the tutors. But the No Child Left Behind law does not say who must do the tutoring. It can be a private company or local teachers. The law does say, however, that the provider must have shown a record of effectiveness in helping students learn. In Rochester, the tutoring is provided by a teachers union, the Rochester Teachers’ Association. The program began in the spring of 2003 with 47 students and 15 tutors.

(34)

A．The Washington Federation of Teachers.

B．The National Labor Union.

C．The American Federation of Teachers.

D．The Washington Labor Union.

听力原文：In all economic systems today, most businesses of any size rely on one system of

听力原文： In all economic systems today, most businesses of any size rely on one system of organization: the division of labor. This means that the workers are specialized. Each worker has a particular duty to perform. as one part of the whole operation.

A good example of the division of labor is an assembly line in an automobile factory. One worker may install a door while another adds lights. Normally, workers stay in one place, and a conveyor belt moves the product to them. If one worker had the responsibility of producing an entire car, he or she might be able to complete one each year. By comparison, factories with assembly lines may produce an average of about thirty-five cars a years per worker.

The division of labor permits mass production, but it does have some disadvantages. For one thing, few people know or understand all aspects of an operation, In addition, mass production may be more efficient, but many workers complain that they get little job satisfaction from working on one small duty, day after day, To them, there is much more satisfaction in doing a job from beginning to end.

(33)

A．The division of labor means that workers are general.

B．The division of labor means that workers are specialized.

C．The division of labor means that each worker is in charge of the whole operation.

D．The division of labor means each worker has to be an expert in one area.
