听力原文: With the introduction of the radio, newspaper publishers wondered how broadcasting would affect them. Many feared that radio as a quick and easy means of keeping people informed would displace the newspaper industry altogether.
Others hoped that the brief newscast heard on the air would stimulate listeners' interests in the story so they would buy the paper to get more information. This second idea turned out to be closer to the truth. Radio & print were not substitutes for each other but actually supported each other. You see the relationship between different media is not al ways one of displacement but can be one of reinforcement. However, this is not always the case. Take television & motion pictures for example. With the popularization of T.V, the motion picture industry suffered greatly. Movie attendance dropped when audience members chose to stay at home and be entertained. Likewise, when a football game was shown on the air, the stands were often empty because fans chose to watch the game at home.

听力原文: There are two main kinds of sports. The two kinds of sports are team sports and individual sports. Team sports are such sports as baseball, basketball and volleyball. Team sports require two separate teams. The teams play against each other. They compete against each other in order to get the best score. For example, in a football game if Team A gets seven points and Team B gets three points, Team A wins the game. Team sports are sometimes called competitive sports. The second type is individual sports. In individual sports there are no teams. There isn't any competition.
People play individual sports in order to get exercise. They don't play individual sports for the competition. Generally they want to get some exercise not to win a game. Individual sports are such sports as swimming, skiing and running. Of course it is possible to compete in individual sports. It is possible to keep a score in individual sports. The main difference, however, between team sports and individual sports is that individual sports can be performed alone. Team sports always require more than one person.

William E. Hoy was born in Houckstown Ohio on May 23, 1862. He became deaf when he was two years old. He attended the Columbus Ohio School for the deaf. After graduation he started playing baseball while working as a shoemaker.
Hoy began playing professional baseball in 1886 for Oshkosh (Wisconsin) of the Northw- estern League. In 1888 he started as an outfielder (外场手) with the old Washington Senators. His small figure and speed made him an outstanding base runner. He was very good at stealing bases during his career. In the 1888 major league season he stole 82 bases. He was also the Senators' leading hitter in 1888. Hoy was clever and he threw right-handed and batted left-handed, on June 19, 1889 he threw out three batters (击球手) at the plate from his outfield position.
The arm signals used by judges today to show balls and strikes began because of Hoy. The judge lifted his right arm to show that the pitch was a strike and his left arm to signal that it was a ball.
For many years people talked about Hoy's last ball game in 1903. He was playing for Los Angeles of the Pacific Coast Winter League. It was a memorable game because Hoy hit a wonderful ball which won the game. It was a very foggy day and therefore very hard to see the ball. In the ninth inning (棒球的一局) with two men out, Hoy managed to catch a fly ball to make the third out in spite of the fog. Los Angeles defeated their opposition and won the game.
After he retired Hoy stayed busy. He ran a dairy farm near Cincinnati for 20 years. He also became a public speaker and traveled giving speeches. Until a few years before his death he took 4—10 mile walks several mornings a week. On December 15,1961 William Hoy died at the age of 99.
In which order did the following things happen in Hoy's life? a. Hoy worked as a shoemaker. b. Hoy began to run a diary farm. c. Hoy played a memorable game in the heavy fog. d. Hoy threw the first ball of the World Series. e. Hoy became deaf.

B.e a b c d

听力原文: The twenty-third Olympic Games were held in Los Angeles and, like every other Olympic Games, they represented a contest of mind, muscle, and athletic determination. The use of high technology, however, showed increasing significance in the staging of the event and helped set an example for staging future events.
Unlike the Olympics of the past, the Olympics are not just a race for gold anymore. They have also become a race for computer technology. Playing the massive event, as any host can tell you, requires a technology plan and organization that brings hundreds of countries together. In the twenty-third Games, for example, computers were used to keep track of schedules, accounts, transportation, and ticketing for more than 43,000 Olympic employees and volunteers. This was not an easy task.
A sophisticated electronic message system, moreover, helped keep the 12,000 or so journalists up-to-date on results. Due to this system, they were able to know about and broadcast to the world the judges' final decisions usually within a minute's time. This message system also allowed traffic controllers to convey traffic reports more efficiently, so that the usually confused Los Angeles highways became easy to navigate. Computers and other high-tech tools were also used to train American athletes by analyzing and evaluating performances. This- computer marvelously assisted the athletes in identifying weaknesses and suggesting ways to improve.

A.The use of high technology.
B.Being held in a big city in the U. $. A..
C.Earning a lot of money by advertising the goods.
D.Training all the athletes who were to participate in the game by using computers.

Searching the Web with Yahoo!
Yahoo!, like the Web itself, is too large to be explored entirely link by link. However, with over half a million sites divided into more than 25, 000 categories, Yahoo! is both browseable and searchable. Use these two features and you will almost always find something to match your interests.
You can browse Yahoo! by simply clicking on the various categories listed on each page.
Search Yahoo! by entering a word (or, a few words) into the search box that appears on every page in the directory. Combine the two strategies and you can "browse and then search" or "search and then browse". Of course, a key question remains: "When should I search Yahoo!?"
You should search Yahoo! when you are looking for a website and you know its rifle.
Example: You're looking for People Magazine online. Instead of browsing through the News and Media category, finding Magazines, and then finding the People Magazine in the alphabetical list, just type "people magazine" into any search box (you don't need to capitalize the words and you don't need quotes).
You should search Yahoo! when you are looking for a specific topic.
Example: You're planning a vacation to Australia. Remember that Yahoo! organizes sites into categories, Those categories are organized by topic. "Does Yahoo! have anything on the topic of Australian Travel?" Search. Type in the words "australia travel" (no quotes, no capitals) and see what happens. One of the first results is the category. Regional: Countries: Australia: Recreation and Sports: Travel. Is that the topic you're after? Yes. Click on it. And remember: if you don't get results on your first search, modify it and try again: sometimes searching is more of an art than a science.
You should search Yahoo! when you want to see where in Yahoo! a particular website is listed,
Example: You love the computer game Myst You're not really interested in Myst itself, since you've already played it for 150 hours, but you are in the market for a similar product. Type "myst' into any search box. Check the results. Click on the first category. This will take you to the Myst game category, deep within the Yahoo! Hierarchy (等级制度). Now, here's the cool part: Look at the title of the page "Top: Recreation: Games: Computer Games: Genres: Adventure: Titles: Myst". All the words in that title are hyperlinks except for the last one (because you are already on the Myst page). Click on the next to last word, "Titles." Voila! There is a whole list of computer games in the same type as Myst.
So, now you know when to search Yahoo!. How about reading a search results page? That can be a tricky task for the uninitiated. Once you get the hang of it, however, it's not hard to master.
Inside the Search Machine
Yahoo! search looks for the following main things:
Yahoo! categories, websites listed in Yahoo!
Web pages indexed by Inktomi.
For the first two of these, Yahoo! searches for matches in its database and then ranks the results in order of most relevant to least relevant. Some of the factors that affect relevancy are: The number of search words matched. The more words matched the higher the rank. Exact word matches. These are ranked higher than approximate matches.
Where in an entry the search words were found. A match in the title of a site is ranked higher than a match in the comments or URL.
Getting Results
The first set of results are Yahoo! categories. Since categories are populated with Yahoo! sites, a Yahoo! category can yield hundreds or even thousands of relevant websites. That's why we put them first. Of course, if no categories match your search terms, we send you straight to the Yahoo! sites.
Yahoo! sites are listed with the categor
