第1题
nce Henry of Portugal, the younger son of the Portuguese King and an English princess. Prince Henry lived in the fifteenth century. As a boy he became devoted to the sea, and [18] he dedicated himself to improving the design of ships and the methods of sailing them. In 1416, when he was twenty-two, Henry founded a school for mariners, to which he invited everyone who could help him—Jewish astronomers, Italian and Spanish sailors, and Arab mathematicians and map makers who knew how to use the crude compass of the day and could improve it. [19] Henry's goal was to design and equip vessels that would be capable of making long ocean voyages without having to keep close to the shore. The caravel, which he helped design, carried more sails and was longer and slimmer than any ship then made, yet was tough enough to stand up against gales at sea. He also developed the carrack, which was a slower ship, but one that was capable of carrying more cargo. [20] The world owes credit to Prince Henry for the development of the craft that made oceanic exploration possible. He lives in history as Henry the Navigator.

A．help mariners.
B．improve ship design and sailing method.
C．study astronomy and mathematics.
D．improve his own skill as a sailor.

SECTION B PASSAGES
Directions: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文： [11] The market is a concept. [12] If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbor or some to the manager of the local supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are being directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them. If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing for the market. If your father is a steelworker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, [12] he is producing goods or service for the market. When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. You may spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas stations, and restaurants. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying your labor in the labor market. The market may seem to be something abstract. But for each person or business who is making and selling something, it's very real. [13] If nobody buys your tomatoes, it won't be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something. It's telling you that you are using energies and resources in doing something the market doesn't want you to do.

B．What is the market?
C．Everything you do is producing for the market.

第8题
听力原文：W: So, what special needs do business travelers have?
M: [10] One of the most important things is a quick check-in and check-out. Room service is also very important. [7]Guests often stay in their rooms working and don't have the time to go out to a restaurant, so they want their meals served in their rooms.
W: And what facilities are there in the rooms?
M: Well, nowadays communication facilities are essential, so things like a modem socket and a fax are very important.
W: Yes, of course.
M: The lighting is also very important. [10]As I said, guests often spend their evenings preparing work, so they need good lighting at their desks.
W: And what about facilities in the hotel in general?
M: The bars are important. [8]Corporate guests tend to spend much more time in the hotel bars than tourists. It's very important to provide a business centre, too.
W: What services does the business centre provide?
