听力原文: The other day, we thought we would go and have a look at tile London Museum. So we got on fifty-two bus in the station yard at Victoria, and started off. We had a lovely view from the top of the bus, and saw the horse guards just as they were passing Hyped Park Corner. The girls had never come this way before, and they would have liked to explore the shops, if only there had been more time. But we had to hurry, and even then when we did get to the Museum, it was almost closing time. On the way back, John got so excited over the model boats on the Round Pond that he nearly fell in. At last he managed to drag himself away, and the girls said. "Could we go back by under ground?" there was no difficulty about catching an Inner Circle train at Kensington High Street, but we had no sooner got in than we found ourselves going in the wrong direction. Of course ,John wanted to stay in the train and go home the long way round, but I put my foot down and wouldn't hear of it. In the end we got out at Baker Street, and I had to console the children by taking them to waxworks.
Where did they plan to go the other day?
A.The London Museum.
B.Victoria.
C.Hyped Park Comer.
D.Kensington High Street.
"Now we' re more than halfway; only two miles away from the tavern, "said the driver.
"I' m glad of that ! "answered the stranger, in a sympathetic mood. He wanted to say more but the east wind blew clear down a man' s throat if he tried to speak. The girl' s voice was something quite charming, however, and at present he spoke again.
"You don' t feel the cold so much at 20 below zero out in the Western Country. There' s none of this damp chill, " he said, and then it seemed as though he had blamed the uncomplaining young driver. She had not even said that it was an awful day, and he began to be conscious of a warm hopefulness of spirit, and sense of pleasant adventure under all the woollen shawls.
"You' ll have a cold drive going back, " he said in earnest, and put up his hand for the thirtieth time to see if his coat-collar were as colse to the back of his neck as possible. He had wished a dozen times for the warm old hunting rig in which he had many a day confronted the worst of
weather in the Northwest.
"I shall not have to go back!" exclaimed the girl, with eager pleasantness. "I' m on my way home now. I drove over early just to meet you at the train. We had word that someone was coming to the tavern. "
How far was the drive from the train to the tavern?
A.One mile.
B.Two miles.
C.A little over four miles.
D.Less than four miles.
听力原文: An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer, a contractor, of his plans to leave the house-building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by. The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end his career. When the carpenter finished his work and the builder came to inspect the house, the contractor handed the front-door key to the carpenter. "This is your house," he said, "my gift to you." What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well. So it is with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather than acting, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized that we would have done it differently. Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one more day, that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity. The plaque on the wall says, "Life is a do-it-yourself project." Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. What did the carpenter plan to do?

(33)

B.Switch to another field.
C.Start his own business.
D.Build a house of his own.

听力原文: Penury was what people called a mystery man. We had known him for over seven years, ever since he became a member of our modest club, but be had a way of keeping his private lift to himself in all but the unessential details. We knew his address, though he never invited us to his home, and his age, too, but only unimportant matters of this kind. It seemed that he did not have to work for a living as we did, in our various ways. He had once hinted about an inheritance on which he managed to live comfortably. He was not, however, a man of luxurious habits: he was not especially well dressed and he did not even have a car. At the age of forty-five he was still a bachelor though. Since marriage was not a subject he ever discussed we had no means of finding out whether he regretted not having a wife.
Penury disappeared suddenly from our circle and shortly afterwards we came to learn the first really solid facts about our mystery man. From reports that appeared in the newspapers, together with photographs of the man who was without doubt, our Mr. Penury, it was revealed that he was the most accomplished burglar in the London area; and that he had practiced this profession for many years, until he was arrested and sent to prison.
(33)

B.Because nobody knew his age.
C.Because Penury's private life was a secret.
D.Because Penury was still a bachelor at the age of forty-five.
