听力原文: A recent investigation performed by Business Watch Today revealed that recently graduated students have an easier time of getting funding from the government to start up a new company. In an interview with a governmental member of finance, it was acknowledged that the government could offer better interest rates, through banks, on loans to recently graduated students than private banks could to long-time entrepreneurs. The reason offered by the official was that recent graduates showed more potential at successfully establishing a new business than others. Though large corporations usually offer more job stability, the hours are long and the rewards are few. Start-up companies offer hardworking graduates a great opportunity to enter the job market through their own means rather than having to rely on large corporations.
What did the investigation show?
A.More graduate students are entering the job market.
B.Recent graduates are more likely to receive government funding for start-ups.
C.The government is restricting cheap loans to long-time business.
D.Start-up companies have the most jobs available.

Today, in many high schools, teaching is now a technical miracle of computer labs, digital cameras, DVD players and laptops. Teachers e-mail parents, post messages for students on online bulletin boards, and take attendance with a quick movement of a mouse.
Even though we are now living in the digital age, the basic and most important element of education-the human connection—has not changed. Most students still need that one-on-one, teacher-student relationship to learn and to succeed. Teenagers need instruction in English, math or history, but they also want personal advice and encouragement. Kids talk with me about their families, their weekend plans, their favorite TV shows and their relationship problems. In my English and journalism classes, we tall about Shakespeare and persuasive essays, but we also discuss college basketball and career choices. Students show me pictures of their rebuilt cars, their family vacations, and their newborn baby brothers. This personal connection is the vital link between teacher and student that no amount of technology can improve upon or replace.
A few years ago I had a student in sophomore English who was struggling with my class and with school in general. Although he was a humorous young man who liked to joke around, I knew his family life was far from ideal. Whenever I approached him about missing homework or low test grades, he always had the same reply : "doesn't matter because I'm quitting school anyway." Even though he always said this in a half-teasing way, I knew he needed to hear my protests and my "value of a high school education" lecture. He needed to hear this speech from me because I understood his family problems and he knew that I believed in him. After he left my class, he struggled through the next two years of school. But, he did finally graduate because we kept telling him to hang in there. We'd cared about him finishing school.
Students rely on compassionate teachers to guide, to tutor, to listen, to laugh and to cry with them. Teachers provide the most important link in the educational process—the human one.
The first paragraph mainly discusses______.
A.the variety of modern teaching methods
B.the importance of teacher-parent relationships
C.the importance of online contact with students
D.the wide use of modern technology in education

听力原文: Imagine that someone in your neighbourhood broke the law, and the judge put the whole neighbourhood under suspicion. How fair will that be? Well, it happens everyday to high schoolers. Just because some students have stolen things in shops, all of us are treated like thieves. Even though I'd never steal.
Store employees looked at me like I'm some kind of hardened criminal. For example, during one lunch period, my friend Denny and I went to the Graben Gore Restaurant to have a hot dog. We arrived to find a line of students waiting outside. A new sign in the window told the story."No More Than Two Students At A Time". After 15 minutes, we finally got in. But the store manager laid the evil eye on us. I asked him about the new sign, and he said, "You kids are stealing too much stuff. " You kids? Too much stuff? We were not only assumed to be thieves, but brilliant, greedy thieves. The most annoying thing though, is the way employees watched my friends and me. It's horrible.
Once, at a drug store, I was looking around and found a guy standing on a large box, stocking the shelves.He was watching my hands, more than he was watching his own. I showed him that my hands were empty. He got down off his box and rushed off, as if he was going to get the store manager. How crazy is that!
Questions:
33. What does the speaker find to be unfair?
34. What measure did the Graben Gore Restaurant take to stop stealing?
35. What happened in a drug store that greatly annoyed the speaker?

A.Hardworking students being accused of cheating.
B.Boy students being often treated as law-breakers.
C.Innocent people being suspected groundlessly.
D.Junior employees being made to work overtime.
Amazingly,though so many people regret the rising dropout rate,our schools continue to lack formal plans—or any plans—about students’ motivation.Most schools have no game plans to ensure that students understand that school will be completely necessary.Schools expect the children to act as the school is important,but they never teach them to believe that.
Years ago,families ensured that the offspring recognized the value of school.But in many modern families,the children may fail to recognize the importance of school life just because these families may actually tell the children that school is not important.Since many families are not motivating their children to be interested students,young professionals,like teachers,may need to provide this training.Otherwise,it is likely that the dropout rate will continue to not drop,but only worsen.
Here are some strategies to convince even the most apathetic students that they must stay in school.
Ask students if they will ever need to work:The world has changed.100 years ago,factory work was the booming job,and it required no education.Today,factories are increasingly automated.Most computerrelated jobs require education and at least a high school diploma.
Ask students which century they will be prepared for:In 1900,the most common jobs were farm laborer and domestic servant—education not needed.Now,the most common jobs are office and sales worker—education and diploma usually needed.6 out of 10 people today work in a store or an office.
Ask students to devise a way that the employee could be replaced.For example,the coming trend in fast food is to use computers rather than people to run the restaurant.A prototype is apparently already being tested.The students should discover that most jobs that lack education and diploma requirements will be ripe for automation.
