听力原文：W: Tom, do you know why Britain is separated from the continent？
M: No. But I guess millions of years ago Britain was also a part of the Continent.
W: You are right. Nearly 10,000 years ago, at the end of the Ice Age, a great flood washed over a wide, low plain, and created the English Channel. From then on, the island of Britain was isolated from the rest of Europe.
M: I know there have been many people who have wanted to swim across the Channel, and some of them have succeeded.
W: What's more, quite a lot of people have thought of building a channel tunnel since the 18th century, but no one thought this dream would come true. Now, however, the channel tunnel, the longest underwater passage on the earth, has been built.
M: When was it built？
W: A British team started to drill southeast from Dover and a French team started to drill northwest from Sangatte in 1987. The two teams met under the channel in December 1990, and they celebrated the completion of the 23-mile shaft.
M: Was it opened to the public immediately？
W: No. The tunnel was opened to the public in 1993 and now it is able to carry up to 30 million passengers a year.
How did the English Channel come into being？
A．Because of a flood 10,000 years ago.
B．Because of an earthquake 10,000 years ago.
C．Because of a flood 100,000 years ago.
D．Because of all earthquake 100,000 years ago.
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：W: Hello Fred. You don't look so good. What's the matter？
M: I just didn't have a good sleep. It seemed I dreamed all night. Do you dream a lot when you sleep？
W: Yes. In fact everybody dreams. And everyone needs to dream in order to stay healthy. There are two kinds of sleep, active sleep and passive sleep. The passive sleep gives our body the rest that is needed, and prepares us for active sleep in which dreaming occurs. The dream stage is very important in our sleep cycle. When the person is dreaming, the eyes begin to move. Through the night, people alternate between passive and active sleep. The cycle is repeated several times through out the night.
M: Do you know how long people usually dream during eight-hour's sleep？
W: For about one and a half hours on average. So we need active sleep because dreaming helps us rest our minds.
M: I see. All people experience dream cycles.
W: Can you remember dreams？ What did you dream last night？
M: Oh yes. It was terrible. I dreamed that I was chased by someone or something. I don't remember very well. So I was running all the time.
W: This is a very common type of dream. Over 70% of people have dreamed that they were being chased or pursued by something, and often in the dream they find themselves unable to flee for one reason or another. These often occur during periods of great anxiety and may be related to frustrating situations which are frequently occurring in their waking life. Anxiety dreams are amongst the most common types reported and are particularly common amongst women (78% ). Only 63% of men experience them.
M: How about dreams of violence？
W: Dreams featuring scenes of violence are more common amongst men (50%) than amongst women (44%). The differences are not very great. Perhaps men are simply more likely to talk about violent things and it must be remembered that men are often the most ardent fans of TV westerns and wrestling programmes.
M: Are there any more kinds of dreams that men experience more than women？
W: Yes. When people are tight in finances, they often have dreams which involve finding coins showering from a slot machine or picking up money from the ground, About a quarter of men have had this kind of dream, but only 15% of women. This probably relates to the fact that money matters are more likely to preoccupy the male that the female.
M: Do you sometimes have dreams about falling？
W: Yes. It is common type of dream too. Dreams about falling are very common with about 75% soaring average. The most frequently reported is one in which typically one trips over something, stumbles of falls and wakes up with a jump.
M: How do you explain this？
W: Psychologists now believe that these dreams do not have any great emotional significance, but are merely due to muscular spasms which take place on the threshold between consciousness and sleep. Well, dreams about flying or floating in the air are often considered to be related to an unconscious wish to escape from something. They are in fact reported by about 50% of dreamers. Dreams about the sea are also common. Women (40%) are far more likely to experience than men(27%).
M: What other kinds of dreams do women experience more than men？
W: Dreams about famous people. Women are more likely to dream about famous people, politicians, pop stars and the like (33%) than men (27%). One very common dream, which almost certainly falls into the wish fulfillment category, is when people report that they are actually meeting famous people in their dreams.
M: What do you think of recurring dreams？
W: Recurring dreams are very com
A．During passive sleep.
B．During active sleep
C．Between passive sleep and active sleep
D．After active sleep.
W: Don't feel discouraged. Be patient. As you are so distinguished, you will definitely find the person who is right for you.
M: To tell you the truth, I am tired of being alone. I hope to find my Mrs. Right. What should I do？
W: Do you believe in Internet matchmaking service？
M: That's really a new walk of life. What is it exactly？
W: It helps match up singles the world over, and helps find the man and woman of their dreams.

A．Because he can't find an ideal date.
B．Because he is too common a person.
C．Because he has failed to realize his dreams.
D．Because he is deceived by Mrs. Right.
M: It means I'm out of a job.
W: That's bad news. This has happened to you before, hasn't it？
M: Yes. This will be the third time in five years and I'm ready to stop.
W: What do you mean？ You're going to quit working？
M: No, I'll still be working, but not for a company. I'm going to be my own boss.
W: Doesn't that make you a little nervous？ You won't have all the benefits that go with working for a company—no retirement, no health insurance.
M: That is the bad part of it, but I am really tired of being dependent on the whims of big business. It seems that it hasn't been all that secure for me.
W: What will you do？
M: I've had a couple of friends who have gone out on their own. They say it is the best thing that ever happened to them.
W: I know it is the secret dream of a lot of people to be their own boss, especially the younger generation.
M: One of my friends just takes temporary jobs. Companies are looking for people with his skills, but only on a temporary basis. So he goes from one company to another, depending on where they need him. He's able to set his own working hours and he makes a lot more than he was when he was working full time. He really likes the freedom he enjoys.
W: What does he do when he doesn't have any jobs coming in？
M: He goes to a temporary employment agency. It seems he always finds work and at double what he used to make.
W: I hope you find just the right thing for your skills. It would be nice to have a job that gave you more freedom.
M: That's why I'm making the change. I want to be able to spend the extra time with my family and it will be great to be working out of my home instead of going to the office every day.
W: Good luck! With your attitude and ability, I'm sure you'll do well.
