听力原文： Anyone who's been married has the experience of arguing with your spouse. Those romantic days of courtship have given way to arguing about doing the dishes and taking out the garbage. But, as any marriage advisor will tell you, (32) at least some fighting is a healthy part of a relationship.

According to a study done by researchers at Ohio State University, though, marital stress has its downside as well. According to the study, the stress that a married couple experiences during a typical argument can slow the body's power to heal wounds by up to two days.

(33) The study involved forty two married couples who'd been together for an average of twelve years. First, each spouse was given small wounds on their arms and took tests to determine their stress levels. Then they were videotaped while having a supportive discussion about their relationship.

Two months later the couples were again given small wounds and this time videotaped while discussing something more emotionally tensional. (34) The researchers found that the wounds took one day longer to heal after the stressful discussion than they did after the supportive discussion. (35) Couples that had really hostile arguments took as long as two extra days to heal their wounds.

The researchers are still trying to determine why higher levels of stress slow the wound healing process. But the findings could be important in many ways. Hospitals, for example, might take more care to make hospital stays less stressful, so patients will heal faster.

32. What is the advisor's view about the arguments？

33.What kinds of persons are involved in the study？

34.In healing the wound，how many days longer does the stressful discussion take than the supportive one？

35.What can we learn from the study done by researchers at Ohio State University？

(33)

A．Arguments do not always occur between couples.

B．Arguments or fights may lead to the end of the marriage.

C．Couples should argue with each other properly.

D．Arguments can be avoided after the romantic days of courtship.

Junk mail is nothing new. For years, marketing groups have collected consumer information, including addresses and phone numbers, and sold them as lists to interested advertisers. But with junk mail, the high cost of mailing packages to large groups of people kept it down to a manageable level. But with email, anyone With a computer and Internet connection can now send messages around the world for free.

听力原文：As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is

听力原文： As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.

Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents' efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. "In general, the more question asking the parents do, the higher the children's IQ scores," Lewis says. "And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is."

The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their brothers and sisters. Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on 'the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention.

"Middle children are invisible," says Lewis. "When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, it's often the case that it's middle child." There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: "When the TV is on," Lewis says, "dinner is a non-event."

(33)

A．To report on the findings of a study.

B．To give information about family problems.

C．To show the relationship between parents and children.

D．To teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table.

听力原文：Thirty years ago, anyone blaming loneliness for physical illness would have been

听力原文： Thirty years ago, anyone blaming loneliness for physical illness would have been laughed at. But as scientists studied different populations, loneliness kept emerging as a risk factor. In one study, Californian researchers followed 4,700 residents of Alameda County for 10 years, starting in 1965.

At first, the participants reported their key sources of companionship and estimated the time they devoted to each other. During the study, the people who reported the least social contact died at nearly three times the rate of those reporting the most. The source of companionship didn't matter, but time spent with others was critical.

Since then, researchers have studied men, women, soldiers and students from countries all over the world. And the same pattern keeps emerging. Women who say they feel isolated go on to die of cancer at several times the expected rate. College students who report "strained and cold" relationships with their parents suffer extraordinary rates of hypertension and heart disease decades later. Heart-attack survivors who happen to live by themselves die at twice tile rate of those who live with others.

For those of us who are still healthy, the lesson should be obvious. It's clear that reaching out to others can help our bodies thrive. It's equally clear that we're growing more isolated. In 1900, only 5 percent of U.S. households consisted of one person living alone. The proportion reached 13 percent in 1960, and it stands at 25 percent today. In a book entitled Bowling Alone, author Robert Putnam shows that oar social connections are disappearing on other levels, too In 1976, Americans attended an average of 12 club meetings a year. The current average is five. Card games, dinner parties and shared family meals have all followed the same pattern. We all have a good excuse we're too busy but we shouldn't be surprised when it catches up with us.

(30)

A．The key source of connections.

B．The time spent with others.

C．The kind of social contact.

D．The degree of solitude.

听力原文：In the 74-year history of the Academy Awards, women have been nominated for best

听力原文： In the 74-year history of the Academy Awards, women have been nominated for best director exactly twice. Yet the motion picture academy would never consider creating a category for “best directress”.

Even in fields where there are more women, they tend to fare poorly against men. Of the 146 writers nominated for an Academy Award in the last decade, for example, only 16 have been women. No one favors separate awards for male and female screenwriters.

And if the idea is to recognize professionals who tend to be ignored in Hollywood, then there ought to be a separate award for black actors. You think women have it hard at Hollywood？ Only three black actors have ever won the top award and only 15 have ever been nominated, compared with over 300 white actors.

The Academy Awards indulge in sexual difference because the Oscars are, first and foremost, about glamour. Actresses are more in the public eye than almost anyone else in Hollywood. No offense to the male actors in their black or white evening dress, but on Oscar night, it’s the women who bring the attraction. Audiences want to see this year’s dresses and hairstyles. Studios want female stars to help them sell tickets.

(33)

A．Hollywood and Academy awards.

B．Hollywood and sexual separation.

C．Actors and actresses.

D．Racial discrimination and sexual difference.

听力原文：Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive？ When someone tells you somet

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.
