听力原文： Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive？ When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.
For example, someone might say, "I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!"
This guy's a winner, right？ Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. He's really a big loser!
He didn't say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That's called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.
Some politicians often use this trick. Let's say that during Governor Smith's last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents says, "During Governor Smith's term, the state lost one million jobs!" That's true. However, an honest statement would have been, "During Governor Smith's term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs."
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It's against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, "Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache." It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.
This kind of deception happens too often. It's a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. How much did the lottery winner lose？
34. What does the speaker believe people should do？
35. What can we know from the example of the Yucky Pill advertisement？
(30)
A．One hundred dollars.
B．Two hundred dollars.
C．Three hundred dollars.
D．Four hundred dollars.

The building of the canal was paid for entirely by the state of New York. It cost $7,143,789, but it soon gained its price many times over. Between 1825, when the canal was opened, and 1882, when toll charges(过运河费) were stopped, the state collected $121,461,891.
For a hundred years before the Erie was built, people had been talking about a canal which could join the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Ocean. The man who planned the Erie Canal and carried the plan through was De Witt Clinton. Those who were against the canal laughingly called it "Clinton's Ditch(沟)". Clinton talked and wrote about the canal and drew up plans for it. He and Governor Morris went to Washington in 1812 to ask for help for the canal, but they were unsuccessful.
Clinton became governor of New York in 1817, and shortly afterwards, on July 4, 1817, broke ground for the canal in Rome, N.Y. The first part of the canal was completed in 1820. As the canal grew, towns along its course developed fast. The length of the canal is 363 miles.
We can see that the Erie Canal______.
A．joined the Great Lakes together
B．crossed New York from north to south
C．played an important part in developing New York City
D．was the first waterway built in the US

听力原文： Because he wrote his name so that it could be read easily, John Hancock has a place in the dictionary.
John Hancock was a wealthy man who helped the patriots in the American Revolution. He was president of the Continental Congress. He was also governor of Massachusetts and one of the first men to sign the Declaration of Independence. Yet he is remembered best for his large signature.
The story is told that when Hancock sat down to sign the Declaration of Independence, he said that he would write his signature large enough for John Bull to read without his glasses. (John Bull stands for England, as Uncle Sam stands for the United States. )Hancock's signature on the Declaration is four and three-quarters inches long- an inch longer than his usual signature. Today John Hancock can be used to mean any person's signature.
What is the passage mainly about？
A．The American Revolution.
B．John Hancock's handwriting.
C．How an American expression began.
D．Signing the Declaration of Independence.

Questions are based on the following passage．
Next month， New York students in grades three through eight will take the state"s standardized tests: three days of exams devoted to English Language Arts and Mathematics tests， except Art， Gym， Health， History and Science which are set up in the usual classes．These are often referred to as high- stakes tests because of the impact that the results can have on student promotion， teacher evaluation， and school funding——and the stakes of the tests in New York this year may be pushed higher still．
In his State of the State address， Governor Andrew Cuomo pledged to make education reform. a centerpiece （最重要的部分） of his agenda．"Everyone will tell you， nationwide， the key to education reform. is a teacher evaluation system，" the governor said．He noted that while only thirty-eight Percent of New York State high-school students are deemed to be "college ready"， according to their scores on standardized tests， 98．7 percent of teachers in New York"s schools are rated "effective"．" How can that be？The problem is clear and the solution is clear．We need real， accurate， fair teacher evaluations．"" But how teachers might best be evaluated remains a contested science．In New York City．a system which was adopted by Cuomo in 2013 is that students" results in state tests account for 20% of a teacher"s rating， but the teacher"s curriculum materials are also evaluated， as is his or her classroom practice， which is observed on multiple visits throughout the year by the school principal．Any teacher deemed ineffective for two continuous years may be fired．
Cuomo"s assertion is not universally shared．Those who have disagreed with it warned excessive reliance on test scores will cause teaching for tests rather than for learning．Others have said teachers may focus on improving their most able students at the expense of nurturing the capacities of the least able members．
In the light of the widespread doubt about over-reliance on test results and the widespread consensus about the harmful effects caused by teaching for tests， that test results are used to assess teachers" effectiveness seems a questionable calculation．It looks likely， though， that．should Cuomo"s proposal come into effect， test-prep season will start a lot earlier next year．for everyone．
Why are the standardized tests considered as tests with high risk？ 查看材料
A.Because the results can affect student promotion， teacher evaluation and school funding．
B.Because the results will determine whether the students will be able to graduate．
C.Because the exams will last for a really long time．
D.Because the exams are difficult and few students can pass them．

For example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars! ”
This guy’s a winner, right？ Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred tickets, and only one was a winner. He’s really a big loser!
He didn’t say anything that was false, but he deliberately omitted important information. That a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.
Untrustworthy candidates in political campaigns often use this tactic. Let’s say that during Governo Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs.

An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It fails to mention that the y only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.

听力原文： "Damage is expected to total into the tens of millions of dollars after several days of flooding in south central Alaska. But it's believed no one has been hurt." Tim Wolston, of member station KSKA in Anchorage reports. "As many as fifteen homes have been destroyed and hundreds more damaged (33)in the town of Seward, southeast of Anchorage. The main road leading into Seward has been washed away cutting off the town from outside. Mayor Harry Giesler says hundreds have been evacuated; others prefer to wait it out. 'You know, Alaskans are a very hearty bunch, and especially people that have things like dog teams and animals. They are very, very reluctant to leave their home as long as it's even there.' (34)Rain is forecast to continue for at least another day in Seward. Meanwhile, north of Anchorage, two bridges have been washed away, (35)and the Alaska Railroad, a major form. of transportation between Anchorage and Fairbanks has been cut off, making it very difficult for residents in interior Alaska to get to five. The governor has issued disaster declarations to free up state fund for emergency relief. The state is hoping for federal assistance as well. For National Public Radio, this is Tim Wolston in Anchorage, Alaska."
