听力原文： One of the main complaints of city residents, not surprisingly, is the lack of parking. This problem is partly caused by all the abandoned cars on the streets. It has been estimated by A to Z Towing, Inc., a nationwide tow-truck agency, that over one million cars are abandoned on the streets and alleyways of the nation's cities. Each year approximately a third of those cars are moved and destroyed. The rest of the cars which are not removed take up parking spaces and make neighborhoods look rundown.
A survey of twenty cities by A to Z reports that as much as 30 million dollars is spent annually to tow away and dismantle abandoned vehicles. One city alone, Los Angeles, spends five million dollars a year to control the accumulation of abandoned cars on its streets. Even though the city spends so much money on the program, it is always fighting a losing battle as more and more cars are constantly coming off the production line.
Boston, on the other hand, which spends most of its money on museums and libraries, does not appropriate tax money to clean abandoned cars off the streets. In Boston the problem has been dealt with by a non-profit governmental agency called Street Horizons, which uses the money from the recycling of the metal in the cars to pay for the cost of towing them The program in Boston sounds good although it has not completely reached financial independence from the federal government yet. Until a truly self-sufficient program for removing old cars is developed, it will remain a serious problem
(33)
A．Around four hundred thousand cars.
B．Thirty million old cars.
C．One million junked cars.
D．Five million cars altogether.

Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
Much of Canada's forestry production goes towards making pulp and paper. According to the Canadian pulp and Paper Association, Canada supplies 34% of the world's wood pulp and 49% of its newsprint paper. Id these paper products could be produced in some other way, Canadian forests could be preserved. Recently, a possible alternative way of producing pa per has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists: a plant called hemp.
Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years. It produces fibre which can be made into paper, fuel, oils, textiles, food, and rope. For centuries, it was essential to the economies of many countries because it was used to make the ropes and cables used on sailing ships; colonial expansion and the establishment of a world-wide trading net work would not have been feasible without hemp. Nowadays, ships' cables are usually made from wire or synthetic fibres, but scientists are now suggesting that the cultivation of hemp should be revived for the production of paper and pulp. According to its proponents, four times as much paper can be produced from land using hemp rather than trees, and many environmentalists believe that the large-scale cultivation of hemp could reduce the pressure on Canada's forests.
However, there is a problem: hemp is illegal in many countries of the world This plant, so useful for fibre, tope, oil, fuel and textiles, is a species of cannabis, related to the plant from which marijuana is produced. In the late 1930s, a movement to ban the drug marijuana began to gather force, resulting in the eventual hanging of the cultivation not only of the plant used to produce the drug, but also of the commercial fibre-producing, hemp plant. In fact, marijuana cannot be produced from the hemp plant, since it contains almost no THC(the active ingredient in the drug).
In recent years, a movement for legalization have been gathering strength. It is concerned only with the hemp plant used to produce fibre this group wants to make it legal to cultivate the plant and sell the fibre for paper and pulp production.
Why is pulp and paper production important to Canada？
A．Canada needs to find a way to use all its spare wood.
B．Canada publishes a lot of newspapers and books.
C．Pulp and paper export is a major source of income for Canada.
D．Hemp is a traditional plant of Canada.

According to the new school of scientists, technology is an overlooked force in expanding the horizons of scientific knowledge. 46) Science moves forward, they say, not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools. 47) "In short" pa leader of the new school contend% "the scien tific revolution, as we call it, was largely the improvement and invention and use of a series of instruments that expanded the reach of science in innumerable directions".
48) Over the year% tools and technology themselves as a source of fundamental innovation have largely been ignored by historians and philosophers of science. The modern school that hails technology argues that such masters as Galileo, Newton, Maxwell, Einstein, and inventors such as Edison attached great importance to, and derived great benefit from, craft information and technological devices of different kinds that were usable in scientific experiments.
The centerpiece of the argument of a technology-yes, genius-no advocate was an analysis of Galileo's role at the start of the scientific revolution. The wisdom of the day was derived from Ptolemy, an astronomer of the second century, whose elaborate system of the sky put Earth at the center of all heavenly motions. 49) Galileo's greatest glory was that in 1609 he was the first person to turn the newly invented telescope on the heavens to prove that the planets revolve mound the sun rather than around the Earth. But the real hero of the story, according to the new school of scientists, was the long evolution in the improvement of machinery for making eyeglasses.
Federal policy is necessarily involved in the technology vs. genius dispute. 50) Whether the Government should in- crease the financing of pure science at the expense of technology or vice versa(反之) often depends on the issue of which is seen as the driving force.

第 46 题 请选择（46）处的最佳答案．
"Further contradicting conventional wisdom, we found that women as well as men have lower levels of stress at work than at home," writes one of the researchers. Sarah Damaske, In fact women say they feel better at work. She notes. "it is men not women. Who report being bappicr at home than at work," Another surprise is that the findings hold true for both those with childrcn and without, but more so for nonparents. This is why pcoplc who work outside the home have better health.
What the study doesn&39;t measure is whether people are still doing work when they&39; re at home, whether it is household work or work brought home from the office. For many men, the end of the workday is a time to kick back. For women who stay home, they never get to leave the office. And for women who work outside the home, they often are playing catch-up-with-household tasks. With the blurring of roles, and the fact that the home front lags well behind the workplace in making adjustments for working women, it&39; s not surprising that women are more stressed at home.
But it&39;s not just a gender thing. At work, people pretty much know what they&39;re supposed to be doing: working, making money, doing the tasks they have to do in order to draw an income. The bargain is very pure: Employee puts in hours of physical or mental labor and employee draws out life-sustaining moola.
On the home front, however, people have no such clarity. Rare is the household in which the division of labor is so clinically and methodically laid out. There are a lot of tasks to be done, there are inadequate rewards for most of them. Your home colleagues-your family-have no clear rewards for their labor; they need to be talked into it, or if they&39; re teenagers, threatened with complete removal of all electronic devices. Plus, they&39; re your family. You cannot fire your family. You never really get to go home from home.
So it&39;s not surprising that people are more stressed at home. Not only are the tasks apparently infinite, the co-workers are much harder to motivate.
According to Pa ragraph 1，most previous su rveys found that home___________
A.was an un realistic place for relaxation
B.generated more stress than the workplace
C.was an ideal place for stress measurement
D.offered greater relaxation than the workplace
According to Damaske， who are likely to be the happiest at home？A.Working mothers
B.Childless husbands
C.Childless wives
D.Working fathers
The word"moola"(Line 4，Para 4)most probably means___________A.energy
B.skills
C.earnings
D.nutrition
The blurring of working women’s roles refers to the fact thay___________A.they are both bread winners and housewives
B.their home is also a place for kicking back
C.there is often much housework left behind
D.it is difficult for them to leave their office
The home front differs from the workplace in that_____________A.home is hardly a cozier working environment
B.division of labor at home is seldom clear-cut
C.household tasks are generally more motivating
D.family labor is often adequately rewarded
SECTION B INTERVIEW
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.
Now listen to the interview.
听力原文：Interviewer(W) Steven Slater (M)
W: Welcome everybody. And today I'd like to introduce you to my guest, Steven Slater, who is going to talk to us something about cycling tours. Steven, welcome.
M: Thank you. And welcome everybody.
W: So Steven, as a coach at the Sunshine Cycling Club, can you tell us something about preparing for a cycling tour？
M: Well, for anyone who is considering going on a tour, the first thing to consider is safety. Because with the correct equipment, and good riding habits, cycling tours can be so much fun, and indeed, very rewarding.
W: So what should people consider first？
M: It's very important indeed to consider what you wear. Naturally, this is largely determined by the time of year and where it is you actually plan to travel to. So what I propose to give is a general guide. But whatever the weather, time of year or destination, a good quality helmet is essential. They are not expensive but have, in the past, saved many lives. But don't try to cut corners by buying a secondhand helmet. They may look to be in perfect condition but you can never tell. Always invest in a new one. Any good bicycle shop can advise you on one that will suit your needs. So get advice from the shop. Tell them where you are going and why.
W: I see. So firstly, a good helmet. Then, what about clothes？ I often see cyclists wear special sportswear. Is that so？
M: You can buy special sportswear for cycling tours. But what is more important is that it can be seen.
W: It can be seen？ I don't understand well.
M: Well, you should always be aware that cyclists are notoriously difficult to spot, and many accidents happen because motorists simply fail to see the cyclist. Therefore wear something that can easily be seen, something that stands out. Again, most good bicycle stores keep a supply of inexpensive, brightly colored vests. And if you are riding at night, do make sure you have lamps securely fitted to your bicycle both front and back, and check your bicycle lamps each day to make sure they work properly. In fact, it is always a good idea to carry a spare set of batteries for the purpose. But to be safer still it is often best to avoid riding at night.
W: And Steven, how far would you advise someone to travel in one day？
M: That depends on your level of personal fitness. What is important is not to try to ride too far, too quickly. Take your time, and if you feel tired, stop and rest. Remember that the joy of cycling tours is the ride itself, getting close to nature and seeing things you wouldn't normally see if you were traveling by car or bus. Therefore, plan your journey in short stages. No more than ten or twenty miles per day. And ff you are planning your journey in the summer, when it is likely to be hot, take plenty of water.
W: How much water should cyclists take in case of hot weather？
M: In fact, if it is a really hot day, like the sort of weather we had last summer, you are advised to drink at least one liter of water every hour.
W: That is quite a lot of water. Are there any other things you have to prepare in summer？
M: Well, you have to protect yourself against sunshine. Sun cream is essential in hot weather because you can very easily get sun burned without even realizing it. When you buy sun cream, make sure that it contains a high index of SPF and PA. SPF can resist UVB, which results in melanin. You know, the thing that will cause the blackening of your complexion. And PA can resist UVA, which results in wrinkles and slack skin. So the ideal sun cream used for cycling tours in summer should contain SPF30-and PA three p
A．A cyclist,
B．A coach on cycling.
C．An expert on tourism.
D．A tourist.
