听力原文： The belief that four-leaf clovers are good luck comes from the Druids, ancient residents of the British Isles. Several times a year, they gathered in oak groves to settle legal disputes and offer sacrifices. Then they ended their rituals by hunting for four-leaf clovers. Why？ They believed a four-leaf clover enabled its owner to see evil spirits and witches, and therefore avoid them. Ancient people believed spirits living in springs and fountains demanded a tribute--usually flesh. Young Mayan girls, for example, were sometimes tossed into the Well of Sacrifice (where they would "marry" the spirits). Today, we just throw the spirits a penny or two for luck. In the Middle Ages, churchmen insisted that knocking on wood was part of the tradition of prayer, since Christ was crucified on a wooden cross. They were right hut the tradition started several thousands of years earlier, with a different deity. Both Native Americans and ancient Greeks developed the belief (independently) that oak trees were the domains of an important god. By knocking on an oak, they were communicating with him and asking for his forgiveness. The Greeks passed their tradition on to the Romans, and it became part of European lore. The oak's "power" was eventually transferred to all wood.

A．Coins.
B．Food.
C．Flowers.
D．People.

听力原文： When the United States first separated from England in 1776, the founders stated the ideals of the new nation in the Declaration of Independence. They believed that "all men are created equal." This philosophy led them to create a system in which all children had equal access to education. From the beginning, education in the U.S. intended to include everyone--regardless of class, wealth or ability. For this reason, elementary and high schools are free to students and are supported by taxes; and for this reason, there are no entrance examinations for the various levels of education through Grade 12.
Universal education was considered important for two reasons. Firstly, the system of the government in the U.S. requires that citizens be educated and informed so that they can make good decisions and express their views by voting. Secondly, the founders did not want the United States to be a nation with rigid class distinctions. If people are created equal, they should have equal opportunities to become wealthy and influential. The founders believed that equal opportunity could only come through equal education.
At first, universal education was primarily for white children, but after the freeing of the slaves, it also included blacks. Gradually, the idea of education for everyone expanded to include special education for handicapped children. Schools must be built to provide access for children with physical handicaps.
What is true of American education？
A．It included everyone from the beginning.
B．High schools are not free to all the children.
C．All children have rights to receive education.
D．There are no entrance exams for all levels of education.
The name Hallowe' en comes from the original "hallowed" (or holy) "evening". Many of the customs of Hollowe' en date back to ancient times when people believed in magic and superstition.
In ancient Ireland, people believed that on this night the dead could return to earth as witches, ghosts, black cats or in other strange forms. These creatures would perform. all sorts of wicked mischief. They were creatures of the night, and any form. of light was a protection against them. People made special lanterns, which they placed by windows and doors to keep the evil spirits away. In time, these lanterns came to be made out of hollowed-out pumpkins with a scary face carved on one side and a candle placed in the center. These are known as "Jack-o'-lanterns."
Hallowe' en superstitions were brought over to America in the nineteenth century and have now been trans formed into a creative seasonal celebration. Children dress up as ghosts and witches. On the evening of October 31st, they nm from house to house calling out "nick or treat." Neighbours give them candy ("treats") and if they do not the children might play a "trick" on them, like dusting flour over their doorstop; or making a lot of noise outside their windows. Adults also dress up and go to costume parties where they might receive prices for the best or scariest costume.
People decorate their houses with cut-outs of ghosts, witches, skeletons and spiders' webs, as well as beautifully carved pumpkins. Stores sell all sorts of goods in the typical Hallowe' en colors of orange and black. You can also buy pumpkin pie, pumpkin cookies and even pumpkin ice cream!
Hallowe' en might began in ______.
A．the 19 th century
B．ancient Ireland
C．America
D．England
Audiences, especially kids, are taking notice. Two recent studies, published in Lancet and Pediatrics, have found that among children as young as 10, those exposed to the most screen smoking are up to 2.7 times as likely as others to pick up the habit. Worse, it's the ones from nonsmoking homes who are hit the hardest. Now the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH)—the folks behind the designated-driver campaign—are pushing to get the smokes off the screen. "Some movies show kids up to 14 incidents of smoking per hour", says Barry Bloom, HSPH's dean. "We're in the business of preventing disease, and cigarettes are the No. 1 preventable cause".
Harvard long believed that getting cigarettes out of movies could have as powerful an effect, but it wouldn't be easy. Cigarette makers had a history of striking product-placement deals with Hollywood, and while the 1998 tobacco settlement prevents that, nothing stops directors from incorporating smoking into scenes on their own. In 1999 Harvard began holding one-on-one meetings with studio execs trying to change that, and last year the Motion Picture Association of America flung the door open, inviting Bloom to make a presentation in February to all the studios. Harvard's advice was direct: Get the butts entirely out, or at least make smoking unappealing.
A few films provide a glimpse of what a no-smoking or low-smoking Hollywood would be like. Producer Lindsay Doran, who once helped persuade director John Hughes to keep Ferris Bueller smoke-free in the 1980s hit, wanted to do the same for the leads of her 2006 movie Stranger Than Fiction. When a writer convinced her that the character played by Emma Thompson had to smoke, Doran relented, but from the way Thompson hacks her way through the film and snuffs out her cigarettes in a palmful of spit, it's clear the glamour's gone. And remember all the smoking in The Devil Wears Prada？ No？ That's because the producers of that film kept it out entirely—even in a story that travels from the US fashion world to Paris, two of the most tobacco-happy places on earth. "No one smoked in that movie", says Doran, "and no one noticed".
Such movies are hardly the rule, but the pressure is growing. Like smokers, studios may conclude that quitting the habit is not just a lot healthier but also a lot smarter.
Why the author mentioned Now, Voyager？
A．Smoke on screen can make romance.
B．To show American screen was full of cigarette smoke.
C．To explain why cigarettes are easier to get than past.
D．The romantic Hollywood movie is a typical example of smoky screen.
