听力原文： The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.
The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well- known buildings, old St. Paul's and the Guildhall among them.
Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.
The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.
After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect, wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow; but he did build more than fifty churches, among them a new St. Paul's.
The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. Where did the fire begin？
34. Why is Samuel Pepys mentioned in the passage？
35. What was the reason for the fire's ending？

When they drove down, over the River Thames and into the city centre, they found it was not so peaceful after all! The main streets were packed with traffic: cars, lorries, coaches full of tourists and the bicycles which the students use to get about. But as soon as they had managed to park the car and get away from the roaring traffic, they discovered a completely different world. Narrow cobbled (铺圆石子的) streets which had hardly changed since the Middle Ages ran between the high college walls of grey or yellow stone. Inside the great double gates of each college they found quiet squares of grass, the library, the dining-hall and the rooms where the students and teachers live. Many colleges had the most beautiful gardens where one could sit and read, talk work or dream.
Most of the students, or undergraduates, wore informal clothes: sports coats, or pullovers, and slacks. But some of them were wearing their black gowns. George explained that they had to wear these when going to lectures or to their weekly meeting with their tutor, or teacher. Tom and Anne were very surprised to see a few young men dressed in formal black suits, with ties ,gowns and scholars' caps. Anne asked whatever they were doing, wearing evening dress in the morning ! George laughed and said that this was the official dress for taking examinations, many of which were held in June.
They stopped the car on top of a hill in order to ______.
A．see the spires and the domes
B．see Oxford
C．to park their car
D．to see the colleges

听力原文： Oxford is a very old town on the River Thames, about 60 miles from London. Unlike modem university towns, where you usually find the university on the edge of the town, or on its own campus. Oxford's center is the university, and all round the crossroads at the very. heart of Oxford, Carfax, there are grey stone colleges and other university buildings. In the center you can also find interesting old restaurants. There are a lot of churches, and a few really large and interesting buildings, such as the Ashmolean Museum, the "round" library, the Boolean and the Radcliffe Camera. Like all English towns, there are parks, and one "The Parks" is the home of university cricket in the summer months. As you leave the center and go towards the edge of Oxford you can see industrial areas in one direction; and in another, beautiful suburb. There is, in fact, quite a lot of industry in Oxford.

B．A well-known university.

The name of the earliest palace was Placentia. Its windows were made of glass--the first in England. Herry Va loved placentia. But Henry understood the future of his country, too: he knew that England must be strong at sea. So he started two big shipyards at Greenwich, and for 350 years the ships made there were the best in the world.
In 1649, a war started in England and for eleven years there was no king. When the war ended, Placentia was falling down. So King Charles 1I built a new and bigger palace, which is now the Royal (皇家的) Naval College and is open to the public.
At this time, Charles was worried about losing so many of his ships at sea: Their sailors didn't know how to tell exactly where they were. So in 1675 Charles made John Flamsteed the first Astronomer (天文台) Royal, to try to find the answer. Flamsteed worked in a new Observatory (天文台) on the high ground in Greenwich Park. With a telescope he made himself, Flamsteed could look all around the sky. And he did, night after night, for twenty years. Carrying on Fiamsteed's work a hundred years later, an astronomer called Harrison (1693 - 1776) finally made a clock which told the time at sea; and helped sailors to know where they were. You can see Harrison’s clock, still working, in Greenwich’s museum of the sea. Because of Flamsteed’s work, every country in the world now tells its time by Greenwich time.
Who first lived in the place that is called Greenwich today according to this passage ？ ______.
A．Henry Ⅷ
B．Romans
C．Charles Ⅱ
D．the Saxons
The river Thames is in ______.
A．Wales
B．Scotland
C．England
D．Northern Ireland
