听力原文： Buried treasure is scattered over every part of the United States. Why don't people find it？ As a matter of fact, a great deal of buried treasure is found much more than we ever hear about, people who find treasure have a habit of keeping it to themselves. Either they are afraid that others might claim it, or they want to avoid paying taxes on it. There are perhaps a dozen unreported treasure finds for each one reported.

Florida has probably yielded more buried treasure than any other part of the United States. The Gulf of Mexico used to be infested with pirates attacking Spanish ships. Often they were unable to dispose of their goods immediately. They packed it in large boxes or sacks and buried it in secret hiding places on the shore. Often they drew a map of the area so that they could come back later and know where to dig.

(33)

A．Treasure hunters don't report their finds to avoid paying taxes on it.

B．Those who find treasure usually keep it to themselves for fear that others might claim it.

C．The police don' t bother about keeping a record.

D．Both A and B

听力原文：This is the day when America remembers those who died in service to their country

听力原文： This is the day when America remembers those who died in service to their country. And nowhere is the extent of their sacrifice more on display than in Arlington National Cemetery-- where seven generations of the fallen are buried. President Bush spoke in the cemetery' s amphitheater-- a massive white structure surrounded by seemingly endless rows of small white headstones. Many of the nation' s greatest military heroes are buried in Arlington. But so too are hundreds of thousands of men and women whose names arc known only to the families and communities that mourn them. They include several hundred soldiers killed since the September 11 attacks on the United States in places like Kabul and Kandahar, Baghdad and Ramadi. The sod is still fresh on those graves, many covered with personal messages, flowers and flags. The president said their sacrifice must not be in vain, and the cause of protecting freedom will never end. Earlier, the president laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns, which contains the unidentified remains of members of the U.S. military killed in major conflicts. He was accompanied by several families of the fallen.

According to the news, many of American greatest military heroes are buried in______.

A．Kabul

B．Arlington

C．Baghdad

D．Kandahar
