听力原文:Millions of people in North America buy lottery tickets. For a small amount of mo

ney——

usually from one to ten dollars—can win a million dollars or more if your ticket is the winning

ticket.

We often envy these winners. How happy we would be, we think, if we suddenly had more than a million dollars in our bank account! How different the rest of our life would be!

It would certainly be different, but a recent study of thirty of these instant millionaires reveals a number of negative factors.

One of' the first changes they become aware of is a loss of privacy. They are harassed by letters and phone calls from people they don't know asking for money. They may have to move to another town or province. Sometimes they are afraid other members of the family will be kidnapped. Faced with all this stress, many lottery winners experience long periods of depression.

Their working life also changes. At first, most winners, intend to keep on working at the same job. But few of them do. A few years after they became wealthy, only seven of our thirty millionaires were working. Sometimes their fellow workers criticize them for working while others are unemployed and looking for a job.

The study concluded that sudden wealth will bring same measure of misery and possibly physical and mental illness to all lottery winners. Yet in spite of these negative factors, not a single winner was prepared to give the money back. Money may not bring happiness, but it allows us to be miserable in comfort.

How much money do people usually spend buying one lottery ticket?

A.Ten dollars.

B.One dollars.

C.One hundred dollars.

D.From one to ten dollars.

听力原文:When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of peo

听力原文: When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people walking dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world, but the reasons why people keep a dog have changed. In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks by other beasts. And later they came to realize that a dog was not only useful for protection but willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat what was caught without permission. But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the most important reason is for companionship. For a child, a dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is their child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.

(33)

A.For protection against other animals.

B.For protection against other dogs.

C.Just for fun.

D.For the purpose of guarding the house.

听力原文:The word "okay" is known and used by millions of people all over the world. Still

听力原文: The word "okay" is known and used by millions of people all over the world. Still, language experts do not agree on where it came from. Some say it came from Indian people. When Europeans first came to America, they heard hundreds of different Indian languages. Many were well developed. One tribe especially had a well developed language. They were farmers and fishermen who lived in the rich Mississippi valley in what is now the state of Alabama. When problems arose, the headers of this tribe discussed them with the tribal chief. They sat in a circle and listened to the wisdom of the chief. He heard the different proposals often raising and lowering his head in agreement, and saying, "okeh," meaning, "all is so". The Indian languages have given many words to English. Many American states have Indian names, and so do rivers, streams, mountains, cities and towns.

(30)

A.American Indian.

B.British people.

C.Europeans.

D.African people.
