听力原文：M: Today we have a guest speaker, K-K Gregory. She's a successful business owner, and she's only 17. Her company makes Wristies.
W: Thank you, Professor Ray—Hi,... umm—I'm really excited to be here. Actually, I started my company when I was ten. Really! —it's true! These are Wristies. See they're long gloves with no fingers. They keep your wrists warm and dry, but your fingers can move easily. So, you can wear them outside, for sports or... um work. But you can also wear them inside, in a cold house or office.
M: Ah, K-K, tell us how you got the idea for Wristies.
W: Well, it was winter, and there was a lot of snow, and I was playing in it. I was wearing a jacket and gloves, but my wrists were really cold! That's why I got the idea. I just thought of it. So I went home and first, I looked for some warm material. Then I put it around each arm. And then I made a little hole for my thumb. And that's how I made the first pair of Wristies.
M: Great! So, how did you decide to start a business？
W: Well, at first, I didn't think about starting a business at all. I just made Wristies for my friends, in different colors, and they all loved them. It was really great! Then they said, "you know, you can sell these things!" And my mother helped me to start my company.
M: Did she have any business experience？
W: No! My mother didn't know anything about business, and I didn't either. But we talked to a lot of people and asked a lot of questions, and you know, we learned a lot! And we had fun.
M: Where can you buy Wristies？
W: In stores. You can buy them in a lot of stores, and there's also a website. Once I went on a TV shopping show, and I sold a thousand pairs of Wristies in one hour! I couldn't believe it.
M: Do you have any advice for young people？

TEXT B
Every street had a story, every building a memory, Those blessed with wonderful childhoods can drive the streets of their hometowns and happily roll back the years. The rest are pulled home by duty and leave as soon as possible. After Ray Atlee had been in Clanton (his hometown) for fifteen minutes he was anxious to get out.
The town had changed, but then it hadn't. On the highways leading in, the cheap metal buildings and mobile homes were gathering as tightly as possible next to the roads for maximum visibility. This town had no zoning whatsoever. A landowner could build anything wiih no permit no inspection, no notice to adjoining landowners. nothing. Only hog farms and nuclear reactors required approvals and paperwork. The result was a slash-and-build clutter that got uglier by the year.
But in the older sections, nearer the square, the town had not changed at all The long shaded streets were as clean and neat as when Kay roamed them on his bike. Most of the houses were still owned by people he knew, or if those folks had passed on the new owners kept the lawns clipped and the shutters painted. Only a few were being neglected. A handful had been abandoned.
This deep in Bible country, it was still an unwritten rule in the town that little was done on Sundays except go to church, sit on porches, visit neighbours, rest and relax the way God intended.
It was cloudy, quite cool for May, and as he toured his old turf, killing time until the appointed hour for the family meeting, he tried to dwell on the good memories from Clanton. There was Dizzy Dean Park where he had played little League for the Pirates, and (here was the public pool he'd swum in every summer except 1969 when the city closed it rather than admit black children. There were the churches - Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian - facing each other at the intersection of Second and Elm like wary sentries, their steeples competing for height. They were empty now, hut in an hour or so the more faithful would gather for evening services.
The square was as lifeless as the streets leading to it. With eight thousand people, Clanton was just large enough to have attracted the discount stores that had wiped out so many small towns. But here the people had been faithful to their downtown merchants, and there wasn’t s single empty or boarded-up building around the square – no small miracle. The retail shops were mixed in with the banks and law offices and cafes, all closed for the Sabbath.
He inched through the cemetery and surveyed the Atlee section in the old part, where the tombstones were grander. Some of his ancestors had built monuments for their dead. Ray had always assumed that the family money he’d never seen must have been buried in those graves. He parked and walked to his mother’s grave, something he hadn’t done in years. She was buried among the Atlees, at the far edge of the family plot because she had barely belonged.
Soon, in less than an hour, he would be sitting in his father’s study, sipping bad instant tea and receiving instructions on exactly how his father would be laid to rest. Many orders were about to be give, many decrees and directions, because his father(who used to be a judge) was a great man and cared deeply about how he was to be remembered.
Moving again, Ray passed the water tower he’d climbed twice, the second time with the police waiting below. He grimaced at his old high school, a place he’d never visited since he’d left it. Behind it was the football field where his brother Forrest had romped over opponents and almost became famous before getting bounced off the team.
It was twenty minutes before five, Sunday, May 7. Time for the family meeting.
16. From the first paragraph, we get the impression that
A. Ray cherished his childhood memories.
B. Ray had something urgent to take care of.
C. Ray may not have a happy childhood
D. Ray cannot remember his childhood days.
Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
听力原文： Every person uses its own special words to describe things and express ideas. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is "Where's the beef？" It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s, "Where's the beef？" was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone was using it all the time.
Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and probably no food is more popular in America than the hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray Kroc began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Kroc called his restaurant "McDonald's". Kroc cooked hamburgers quickly so people in a hurry could buy and eat them without waiting. By the end of the 1960s the McDonald's Company was selling hamburgers in hundreds of restaurants from California to Maine. Not surprisingly, Ray Kroc became one of the richest businessmen in America.
Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company, called "Wendy's", began to compete with McDonald's. Wendy's said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald's or anyone else. The Wendy's Company created.the expression "Where's the beef？" to make people believe that Wendy's hamburgers were the biggest. It produced a television advertisement to sell this idea. The Wendy's television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a tiny bit of meat. "Where's the beef？" She shouted in a funny voice. These advertisements for Wendy's hamburger restaurants were a success from the first day they appeared on television. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression "Where's the beef？"

听力原文：W: Mike, do you have a minute？
M: Oh, hi, Cathy. Sure. What's up？
W: Well, I've been meaning to talk to you about the situation of the office.
M: I W: Oh, Jackie, I've had such a terrible day.
M: You look exhausted. What on earth have you been doing？
W: Oh, I've been such a fool! You just wouldn't believe what I've done.
M: I would, I would. Come on...Where's you been？
W: I'm dying to tell someone. I've been down to London, you see. OK, I thought I'd be very sensible, so I'd drive down to the Underground on the outskirts of London, leave the car and go in by tube. All right？ Very sensible. Yes？ OK. So I drove down to London and I parked ray car by the tube station and I got the tube into London: Fine! All right？
M: Well, sounds like it.
W: So far, so good. Right. I came back out of London and got out of the tube.
M: And you forgot the car？
W: No, no, I didn't forget the car. I couldn't find the ear, Jackie. It'd gone.
M: You're kidding.
W: No, no, really, it'd gone. I walked out...happily out of the tube, you know, over to where it was and I looked and it was a red Mini and mine's green, so I thought "Oh no". So having panicked a bit, I rang the police, you see, and this lovely, new little policeman...a young one came out to help. That's it, yes...buttons shining...big smile...came down to help, so I said, "I've lost my ear. It's been stolen." And I took him to see it and everything and...
M: You mean where it wasn't.
W: And sure enough, it wasn't there. And then he coughed a bit and he went very quiet.., and he took me back into the tube station and out the other side into the other car park, and there was my car, Jackie, parked in the other tube station car park, the other side of the station, because there are two exits, you see, so I walked out of an exit not knowing, there were two and it was in the other one.
M: Oh Lesley. And was he ever so cross？
W: He was livid, Jackie. He went on and on at me and I didn't know what to do. It was just frightful. I went red and just shut up and said "Sorry" all the time.
M: Jumped in your car and left.
W: Oh, it was awful. I'm never doing that again ever.
m not in there very often. It's so noisy that I can't work,
W: That's exactly what I'm getting at. We're supposed to be able to do our preparation and marking in that office, but have you noticed？ Simon constantly has students coming in to get help with his course. A lot of people are going and out.
M: Has anybody spoken to him about it？
W: No, not yet, but someone's going to have to.
M: We can't really ask him to stop having students come in for help, can we？
W: No, of course not. But I'm not able to do my work and neither are you. I imagine it's the same for the others in the office.
M: Hmmm, could we ask for a kind of meeting room？ When TA's have to talk with a student, they could go to the meeting room and not use the office. You know, there's a room down the hall, a rather small room, that we could ask to use. It's only for storing supplies.
W: You mean the little storage room？ Oh, that would be too small.
M: Are you sure？ With the cabinets taken out, it might be bigger than it looks.
W: Come to think of it, you may be on to something, I'd like to have a look at that room. Can we go there now？
M: Sure. Let's go.

A．There aren't enough cabinets.
B．There is too much noise.
