听力原文: In the 19th century it was common to hear people in Europe and America say that the resources of the sea were unlimited. For example, a noted biologist writing in the mid 1800s commented that all of the great sea-fish industries are inexhaustible. Today there's evidence that the resources of the sea are as seriously threatened as those of the land and the air, and the concern of conservationists now includes sea-fish as well as the African elephant, the Indian tiger and the American eagle. Further, the threat to fish is more alarming in some ways than the threat to birds and land animals because fish are a much needed food resource. Many people throughout the world depend on fish as an important part of their diets, and a decline in the fish supply could have extensive effects on hunger and population.
(23)
A.That they were in infinite.
B.That they should be carefully conserved.
C.That they were declining.
D.That they were limited.

听力原文: Can this bird help alleviate the pain caused by some common ailments? Well, its bite certainly won't help matters, but its oil just might.

Today, this folklore remedy is getting new attention from scientists. A team of researchers from Australia' s Adelaide Women' s and Children' s Hospital is trying to find out, once and for all, if the flightless bird truly possesses healing powers, and they' ye been encouraged by previous tests that have demonstrated the oil' s value, especially, in the treatment of arthritis

听力原文:M: Hello, professor Johnson.
W: Hello, Tony. So what shall we work on today?
M: Well, the problem is that this writing assignment isn't coming out right. What I thought I was writing on was to talk about what a particular sport means to me when I participate in.
W: What sport did you choose?
M: I decided to write about cross-country skiing.
W: What are you going to say about skiing?
M: That's the problem. I thought I would write about how peaceful it is to be out in the country.
W: So why is that a problem?
M: I'd like to start describing how quiet it is to be out in the woods. I keep mentioning how much effort it takes to keep going. Cross-country skiing isn't as easy as some people think. It takes a lot of energy, but that's not part of my paper, so I guess I should leave it out. But now I don't know how to explain that feeling of peacefulness without explaining how hard you have to work for it. It all fits together. It's not like just sitting down somewhere and watching the clouds roll by. That's different.
W: Then you'll have to include that in your point. The peacefulness of cross-country skiing is the kind you earn by effort. Why leave that out? Part of your point you knew beforehand, but part you discovered as you wrote. That's common, right?
M: Yeah, I guess so.

听力原文: Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is "Early Money". I'm going to tell you something about money used in the early days. Honestly, we know little about how early people came to use money, but we do know some of the things that have been used as money. In early times in some European countries, salt was very difficult to get. It was used as money. In some parts of Asia, tea was used as money. The American Indians used nuts and other things. Maybe the most common money of all was an animal of some kind. In some places today, cows are still used as a kind of money. So you see, things highly valued by everybody may serve as money. The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money. Oh, sorry, you don' t know the word? Well, it is spelled C-O-I-N. Here are some coins of the past. You can come over and have a look.
The speaker wants to tell the listeners about________.
A.how money came into being
B.the kind of things which served as money in the past
C.the fact that the Chinese people were the earliest users of money

In addition to the words brought to English【59】foreigners, there are plenty of words which the British have collected from the countries they have settled in all【60】the world. There are even a few Chinese words, which I’m sure a Chinese speaker would recognize from the way we pronounce them:" typhoon" is a great wind; "to kow-tow" is to bow down low; a "sampan" is a small wooden boat. Over 5,000 of the words in common use in English today are words of foreign【61】. Some of them are clearly recognizable【62】foreign like "au pair" or "rendezvous";【63】now look so English that only a language historian knows【64】they came from.
So English is in a state of permanent development. Both in Britain and abroad it is gaining【65】words and expressions, and dropping and changing old【66】. Words changes their meaning, and they go in and out of fashion【67】hairstyles. Nobody knows all the four million words that are said to exist; a well-educated person probably【68】under 20,000. So don't be surprised if you never encounter some of the expressions that still appear in school textbook; and next time you hear somebody using a strange word you haven't heard【69】, you can comfort yourself that there may well be a native speaker somewhere who doesn't know it【70】.
