Section B Passage One In Greece, only rich people will rest in peace for ever when they die. Most of the population, however, will be undisturbed for only
21、 three years, then they will be dug up, washed, compressed into a small tin box, and placed in a bone room. If the body has only partially decayed, it is reburied in a smaller cheaper grave, but not for long, the body will be dug up again some time later when it has fully decayed. Buying a piece of
22、land for a grave is the only way to avoid this process. The cost of the grave is so great that most people choose to rent a grave for three years and even after being dug up, lasting peace is still not guaranteed. If no one pays for renting space in the bone room, the skeleton is removed and stored
23、in a building in a poor part of the town. Lack of space in Amphons is the main reason why the dead are dug up after three years. The city is so overcrowded that sometimes dead bodies are kept in the hospitals for over a week until a grave is found. Amphons city council wants to introduce cremation t
24、hat is burning the dead bodies as a means of dealing with the problem. But the Greek Church resists this practice, they believe the only place where people burn is a hell, so burning dead bodies is against the Greek concept of life after death. To save space, the church suggested burying the bodies
25、standing up instead of lying down. Some people proposed building multi-storey underground grave yards. Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What must Greeks do to keep the dead resting in ever-lasting peace?27. Why are most dead bodies in Amphons dug up after three yea
26、rs?28. What suggestions does the church give about the burying of the dead bodies?29. What practice does the Greek church object to?Passage TwoIf you visit a big city anywhere in the world, you will probably find a restaurant would serve the food of your own native country. Most large cities in the
27、United States offer international sample of foods. Many people enjoy eating the food of other nations. This is probably one reason why there are so many different kinds of restaurants in the United States. A second reason is that many Americans come from other parts of the world. They enjoy tasting
28、the foods of their native lands. In the city of Detroit, for example, there are many people from Western Europe, Greece, Latin America, and the Far East. There are many restaurants in Detroit which serve the foods of these areas. There are many other international restaurants too. Americans enjoy th
29、e foods in these restaurants as well as the opportunity to better understand the people and their way of life. One of the most common international restaurants to be found in the United States is the Italian restaurant. The restaurant may be a small business run by a single family. The mother of the
30、 family cooks all of the dishes, and the father and children serve the people who come to eat there. Or it may be a large restaurant owned by several different people who worked together in the business. Many Italian dishes that Americans enjoy are made with meats, tomatoes and cheese. They are very
31、 delicious and tasty. Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard. 30. Why are there so many international restaurants in the United States?31. Why do Americans like to go to international restaurants apart from enjoying the foods there? 32. How is it typical Italian family resta
32、urant run in the United States? Passage ThreeOne winter day in 1891, a class of training school in Massachusetts, U. S. A, went into the gym for their daily exercises. Since the football season had ended, most of young men felt they were in for a boring time. But their teacher, Janes Nasmith had oth
33、er ideas. He had been working for a long time on the new game that would have the excitement of American football. Nasmith showed the men a basket he had hung at the each end of the gym, and explained that they were going to use a round European football, at first everybody tried to throw the ball i
34、nto the basket no matter where he was standing. “Pass! Pass!” Nasmith kept shouting, blowing his whistle to stop the excited players. Slowly, they began to understand what was wanted of them. The problem with the new game, which was soon called “basketball”, was getting the ball out of the basket. T
35、hey used ordinary food baskets with bottoms, and the ball, of course, stayed inside. At first, someone had to climb up every time a basket was scored. It was several years before someone came up with the idea of removing the bottom of the basket and letting the ball fall through. There have been man
36、y changes in the rules since then, and basketball has become one of the worlds most popular sports.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard. 33. What did Nasmith do to entertain his students one winter day? 34. According to the speaker, what was the problem with the new game?3
37、5. How was the problem with the new game solved?Section CFor Americans, time is money. They say, “You only get so much time in this life; youd better use it wisely.” The (36) future will not be better than the past or present, as Americans are (37) trained to see things, unless people use their time
38、 for constructive activities. Thus, Americans (38) admire a “well-organized” person, one who has a written list of things to do and a (39) schedule for doing them. The ideal person is punctual and is (40) considerate of other peoples time. They do not (41) waste peoples time with conversation or oth
39、er activity that has no (42) visible beneficial outcome.The American attitude toward time is not (43) necessarily shared by others, especially non-Europeans. They are more likely to regard time as (44) something that is simply there around them, not something they can use. One of the more difficult
40、things many students must adjust to in the States is the notion that time must be saved whenever possible and used wisely every day.In this context, (45) the fast food industry can be seen as a clear example of American cultural product. Mc Donalds, KFC, and other fast food establishments are succes
41、sful in a country where many people want to spend the least amount of time preparing and eating meals. As McDonalds restaurants (46) spread around the world, they have been viewed as symbols of American society and culture, bringing not just hamburgers but an emphasis on speed, efficiency, and shiny cleanliness.
