听力原文： It seems like almost everyone buys or sells goods at yard sales in the United States. People place used personal or household goods for sale outside their homes (30) .
The LT. S. one Twenty-Seven Corridor Sale is known as the World's Longest Yardsale. It began in 1987. The event's headquarters is in Jamestown, Tennessee. A former local official, Mike Walker, came up with the idea (31) . He thought it would bring people to the area and show them that small country roads have a lot to offer. Others agreed. They wanted people to consider traveling on these roads instead of the popular interstate system.
Every year, the four-day sale begins on the first Thursday in August. So August 7th of this year marks the opening of the twenty-first World's Longest Yardsale. The event now crosses five states--Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama.
Tens of thousands of sellers take part. Some people who live along or near Route one Twenty-seven simply place their goods for sale in front of their house. Others use nearby public spaces, like parks. People sell everything and anything at the sale: furniture, clothing, toys, books and music. You can also find sporting goods, farm equipment, tools and art. And, lots of other things (32) . Tens of thousands of people from across the country drive along the road in search of interesting things to buy. Route one Twenty-Seven becomes crowded with vehicles.
(31)
A．They are places for people to exchange their goods.
B．They are places for residents to heap the useless things.
C．They are sales set for residents to sell and buy used things.
D．They are sales set by stores to put their goods on sale.

听力原文： You're about to spend four years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars of your parent's money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do you ever stop to wonder why you're going？
Relax. You're making the right decision. First of all, you'll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. College is also a lot of fun — after you graduate, you'll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduates earn about twice the income of those who never attended college.
Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, JohnsonReview is here to help you every step of the way.
Researching Schools. To us, the most important decision you'll make is to choose the school that really fits you best — not the one that is the most competitive or has the best-equipped rooms.
Applying to School. On JohnsonReview.com, you'll find hundreds of actual college applications and links to many more.
Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college rather than learning the ways to get financial aid. If you really do your research, you'll learn that you can afford to attend any college, no matter the cost.

35. What's the speaker's purpose of giving this talk？

Fishing typically does not require land ownership, and because it remains, in general, open to all, it is often the employer of last resort in the developing world--an occupation when there are no other options. Worldwide, about 200 million people depend on fishing for their livelihoods. Within Southeast Asia alone, more than five million people fish full-time. In northern Chile ,40 percent of the population lives off the ocean. In Newfoundland, most employment came from fishing or servicing that industry--until the collapse of the cod fisheries in the early 1990s left tens of thousands of people out of work.
Although debates over the conservation of natural resources are often cast as a conflict between jobs and the environment, the restoration of fish populations would in fact boost employment. Michael P. Sissenwine and Andrew A. Rosenberg of the U. S. National Marine Fisheries Service have estimated that if depleted species were allowed to rebuild to their long-term potential, their sustainable use would add about $ 8 billion to the U. S. gross domestic product--and provide some 300, 000 jobs. If fish populations were restored and properly managed, about 20 million metric tons could be added to the world's annual catch. But restoration of ecological balance ,fiscal profitability, and economic security will require a substantial reduction in the capacity of the commercial fishing industry so that wild population can recover.
The necessary reductions in fishing power need not come at the expense of jobs. Governments could increase employment and reduce the pressure on fish populations by directing subsidies away from highly mechanized ships. For each $1 million of investment, industrial-scale fishing operations require only one to five people ,whereas small-scale fisheries would employ between 60 and 3000. Industrial fishing itself threatens tens of millions of fishermen working on a small scale by depleting the fish on which they depend for subsistence.
The animal source which supplies the most protein for human being is ______.
A．beef
B．fish
C．pork
D．chicken

Fishing typically does not need land ownership, and because it remains, generally, open to all, it is often the employer of last resort in the developing world—an occupation when there are no other choices. Worldwide, about 200 million people rely on fishing for their livelihoods. Within Southeast Asia alone, over five million people fish full-time. In northern Chile forty percent of the population lives off the ocean. In Newfoundland most employment came from fishing or servicing that industry—until the collapse of the cod fisheries in the early 1990s that left tens of thousands of people out of work.
Though debates over the conservation of natural resources are often cast as a conflict between jobs and the environment, the restoration of fish populations would in fact boost employment. Michael P. Sissenwine and Andrew A. Rosenberg of the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service have estimated that if depleted species were allowed to rebuild to their long-term potential, their sustainable use would add about $ 8 billion to the U. S. gross domestic product—and provide about 300,000 jobs. If fish populations were restored and properly managed, about twenty million metric tons could be added to the world's annual catch. But restoration of ecological balance, fiscal profitability (收益) and economic security will require a continual reduction in the capacity of the commercial fishing industry so that wild populations can recover.
The necessary reductions in fishing workforce need not come at the expense of jobs. Governments could increase employment and reduce the pressure on fish populations by guiding subsidies away from highly mechanised ships. For each $1,000,000 of investment, industrial-scale fishing operations require only one to five people, while small-scale fisheries would employ between 60 and 3,000.

第10题
Questions are based on the following passage.
"Innovative" does not necessarily mean radical or expensive， nor do the best ideas comefrom the top. A woman on the shop floor at Ford suggested putting symbols of different en-gine parts so that drivers would not need a manual to do something simple， such as checkthe oil. It proved so popular it is now common practice.
Ford"s open policy towards employees" ideas "generates tens of thousands of e-mailsa month"， according to Ed Sketch， the director of training and development in Americaand Europe. The company has even employed people to sift through them. Money-savingbrainwaves are rewarded with big bonuses or a new car.
Companies might want to recruit innovative thinkers， but do they really want noncon-formists on board？ Peer Granger， the head of Insight Training， which runs innovation work-shops for companies， believes that the risk of not having them on board is greater. "It"s notlike the old days， where companies could churn out the same old product year after yearand customers would buy them. It" companies don"t innovate， they die. Just look at the highstreet. And almost by definition， you have to be difficult in order to innovate because it isabout challenging the status quo."
The problem is that innovators are usually seen as trouble-makers and are often the first peo-ple to go if a company is downsizing. There"s such a blame culture that people are scared to stepoutside the norms. In our workshops we show people the value of breaking rules."
However， Granger thinks that difficult， innovative people would crumble without theirconformist colleagues. "Crikey， you need the other people to say， "Hang on， maybe thisisn"t a good idea"， which can save you a lot of hassle later. And turning an idea into realitymay involve office politics， which difficult people may not be good at."
The example of the woman whose suggestion was popular indicates that ___________. 查看材料
A.everything that is beneficial to people can be said to be innovative
B.even the common people can put forward an innovative suggestion
C.people are easy to accept new things that are helpful to them
D.the ideas from the top sometimes are not as good as those from ordinary people
