听力原文： I wonder how many of you would want to work in a tall building such as the Empire State Building if you had to climb 102 flights of stairs to reach the top. Not many, I imagine. If it were not for the invention of elevators, or lifts, tall buildings would be unusable.
The first lift was just a box suspended on a rope. Using a series of pulleys, a group of oxen or strong men would pull the rope and lift the box to a higher point. Lifts were used only for heavy materials, not passengers. Even in the nineteenth century, when steam power was used to operate the lifts, people didn' t ride them. They didn' t trust the rope that held the Box.
In 1853, Elisha G. Otis invented the first safe lift. He showed his invention in New York at the Crystal Palace Exhibition. At the exhibition, Otis was pulled up in an open box that was attached to two guide rails. When he was lifted far above the spectators, he gave the order to cut the rope. To the amazement of the crowd, the lift did not fall straight downward to the floor. Instead, it was held fast to the guide mils by a certain device. He had built powerful metal clamps on the carriage as a safety measure. The demonstration worked, end people have been riding as passengers in elevators ever since.

B．Modern elevators.
C．The Crystal Palace Exhibition.
D．The invention of the elevator.

听力原文： W: I'm not surprised that factory workers want shorter hours. How would you like to be panels or turn screws hours after hours everyday.
M: I wouldn't. I'd get bored. And I think only of my weekly wage packet.
W: So naturally, our workers are always on strike. They are bored and they want more money to spend in spare time.
M: No. What worries me is that there is far too many unnecessary disagreements between workers, trade unions and managements. We haven't yet learned to work together-as a team.
W: Is that why so many of our industries are dying？
M: What do you mean so many of our industries and what do you mean by dying？
W: That's the word you used the other day about coal mining and cotton textile industry.
M: Why do people get so upset about these industries？ I suppose it's because it used to be our pride and strength. Well, there aren't any more as far as I'm concerned, the sooner people realize it, the better. Then all the money, labor and technical skills wasted on them could be put into the spending of other industries like electronics, motor cars, IT industry, and even some industry like tourism.
W: What about industries in other European countries？ Haven't they got the same sort of problems.
M: Yes, hut they had more practice at fighting for markets. That's why I'm in favor of Britain being a member of Euro Zone. Industry inside of the Euro Zone are forced to take notice of their competitors.
W: Don't you feel hopeless about the future？
M: Of course, I don't. We are very invented and innovated people and we have plenty of skilled and professional workers. Besides, we still have reputation for honesty and fair dealing in business.

听力原文： Venice is the "Queen" of the Adriatic Sea. Every year thousands of people from all over the world travel to Italy to visit the city. Do you know why they like to go there for a visit？
Venice is a very beautiful city. It is quite different from other cities in the world. There aren't any roads or streets in the city so there aren't any cars or buses. There are many canals in the city. There is one big canal and one hundred and seventy-seven small canals. People move up and down the canals in boats to go to work, go shopping or visit their friends.
But Venice is sinking. It is going down and the water is going up. In 2040 Venice will be under water. The Adriatic Sea will cover the city. The Venetians love their city and they want to stay there, so they want to save Venice from the sea. They do not want to leave. How can they save Venice？ They can build some strong huge walls and gates in the sea. The gates will close to keep too much water out. Thus Venice will not sink.

听力原文： As more and more people lose their jobs, now is perhaps the time to consider the experience of unemployment. What are the first feelings？ Well, losing a job, or not being able to find one, almost always brings unwelcome changes. If a person has lost a job, the first feeling is often one of shock. As well as the loss of income, many people find the whole routine of their life is disordered, their contact with other people reduced, their ambitions halted and their identity as a worker removed.
At first there may be good feelings too--a new and better job is just around the corner--it's nice to be able to lie in bed in the morning or spend more time with the children and have more time to think. But, unless a better job does turn up, the chances are the days start getting longer and time becomes harder to fill. Many people pass through periods of difficulty in sleeping and eating. They are easily annoyed and often feel depressed, isolated and lonely.
Despite all these problems, though, unemployment can be a chance for a fresh start. Those who have lost their jobs can discover that it provides an opportunity to sort out or rethink what they want from life and how best they can get it. They can use the time to plan how to find a new job, learn a new skill, develop their hobbies or see if they can run their own business.

A．Angry.
B．Sad.
C．Shocked.
D．Ashamed.
