why didn't people wash in those days long ago？
Well, they did not have water in their house. They carried water from rivers or from holes in the ground (= wells). Towns people bought it from a water--carrier. Sometimes it was expensive; and soap was always expensive. They drank water, of course; and so they were clean inside. They did not think about the outside! And this is true; they just did not like a bath.
Modern life is different. We use a lot of soap and water. And we are all quite clean. However, a few people use too much soap; and they often get ill. Who are these people？
Many young women work as hairdressers. They wash and then "dress" other women's hair. That is their job, and they like it. Young hairdressers sometimes wash dirty heads on a busy day! Their hands are soapy for seven or eight hours; and that is not a good thing. A young hairdresser's hands are often red and ugly; and she must then go to doctor.

A．often died young
B．did not often have a bath

The fact the ordinary citizens are now starting to think seriously about the nation's moral climate, says this ethics professor at the University of Chicago, is reason to hope that new ideas will come forward to improve it.
But the challenge is not to be underestimated. Materialism and individualism in American society are the biggest obstacles. "The thought that 'I'm in it for me has become deeply rooted in the national consciousness," Ms. Einstein says.
Some of this can be attributed to the disintegration of traditional communities, in which neighbors looked out for one another, she says. With today's greater mobility and with so many couples working, those bonds have been weakened, replaced by a greater emphasis on self.
In a 1996 poll of Americans, loss of morality topped the list of the biggest problems facing the U. S. And Einstein says the public is correct to sense that: Data show that Americans are struggling with problems unheard of in the 1950s,such as classroom violence and a high rate of births to unmarried mothers.
The desire for a higher moral standard is not a lament (挽歌)for some nonexistent" goldenage," Einstein says, nor is it a wishful(一厢情愿的)longing for a time that denied opportunities to women and minorities. Most people, in fact, favor the lessening of prejudice.
Moral decline will not be reversed until people find ways to counter the materialism in society, she says. "Slowly, you recognize that the things that matter are those that cant’ be bought."
Professor Einstein is pleased to see that Americans ______.
A．have adapted to a new set of moral standards
B．are longing for file return of the good old days
C．have realized the importance of material things
D．are awakening to the lowering of their moral standards

听力原文： When Dorcas Hankin went into the hospital her 19-year-old son Christopher stole her car and sold it for seven days of extravagant life. When the pohce told Dorcas her car had been stolen, she went into shock.
"I just knew Christopher had done it. He'd been threatening to do it for ages. He said the money would be his compensation for an unhappy childhood."
"I knew I had to tell the police, but I couldn't face the thought of shopping my own son. It took me two days to pluck up the courage. But it was the only way to make him stop and think about what he was doing with his life. I also had to take him to court because that was the only way I could claim insurance."
Christopher was given 120 hours of community service and he's now living back at home with his mother. But why would she forgive him so readily？
"Because I do feel guilty about Chirstopher's childhood. Christopher's dad and I split up when he was three and later I remarried. My new husband didn't like having children around, therefore, we sent the boy to a boarding school. But Christopher came home soon. By then I was divorced and he really began to manipulate me. He'd get jobs and quit after two days, saying he couldn't stand authority, then he'd expect me to give him the money to go out.
"I don't earn a lot, but I just couldn't seem to say no to him because I felt the way he'd turned out was partly my fault."
Christopher says:
"I love my mother but I feel angry with her for staying with that man all those years. She should never have married someone who disliked children so much."
"I suppose I've been able to manipulate her in recent years because of her guilt, but what teenager doesn't ？'
"She lets me live with her as she can't bear to see me on the streets but somewhere to sleep is all that she'll give me."

听力原文：M: Hi, I've heard you're looking for a different apartment.
W: Yeah, the place I'm in is really bad.
M: It was OK when I was there.
W: (22) Oh, the boiler keeps breaking and when it doest we lose the heat for several days at the time.
M: Why doesn't the owner replace it？
W: (23) Well, she said it was cheaper to keep fixing it. She's a nice enough person, but she just doesn't want to spend the money. In any case, I'm sick of being cold.
M: Can you get your deposit back if you move？
W: (24) If I give a two-month notice, I can get the whole thing back.
M: So what kind of place are you looking for？
W: I think I'll try to get into one of those tall buildings near the university. There's nothing really special but at least they are new and comfortable.
M: I've heard that those buildings are pretty noisy. The walls are thin and you can hear everything that's going on in the other apartment.
W: Oh, that's terrible. I need some place quiet to finish my paper. I guess I'll have to look at some more ads. Maybe a new one isn't necessarily better.
M: Why don't you try some of those apartments in Winsor？ They're supposed to be nice.
W: Oh, aren't they expensive？
M: Not really, you'll be surprised at how reasonable some of them are. (25) The problem there is that the bus doesn't run that way.
W: That will definitely be a problem. I can't afford a car right now. I guess I'd better check a few of the places here in the city before I make a decision.
(26)
A．It's too noisy.
B．It's not convenient to the university.
C．The heating system is not functioning.
D．The owner is unpleasant.
