[03:14.40]Passage One
[03:17.59]Books are for reading,but man must bring to his reading a desire to learn and a power to absorb.
[03:25.66]Reading should be active,not passive5.
[03:29.92]When students first go to a library,they may be at a loss about what to read with all the different subjects available.
[03:38.62]Bacon tells you to"look at weak places in your armour",and shows you how to fill the blanks in your knowledge.
[03:47.81]On the other hand,it is no good just trying to fill your mind with knowledge.
[03:54.03]Knowledge in itself is often useless.
[03:58.18]A mind filled with too much knowledge is like a room too full of furniture;
[04:04.32]a man cannot walk about freely6 in it,or look out the windows.
[04:09.50]It is much better to concentrate on a few subjects which interest you and to deal lightly with the others than to march heavily through the whole range of learning7.
[04:20.62]like a silly tourist going through a museum and not missing8 a single object.
[04:27.78]If you try to master every subject you may become very wise,but you will be very lonely and you will probably lose all your friends.
[04:37.86]So you must learn to pick and choose,and you must also learn to look here and there in a library like a camel eating grass on the grassland9.
[04:48.08]If you watch him eating,you will see that although he is supposed to be one of the most stupid animals in the world,
[04:55.39]he has at least one of the qualities of the cultured man,the power to pick and choose.
[05:02.50]A student looking for mental food in the library should use the camel as his model.
[05:09.71]Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[05:14.93]11.What's the writer's attitude towards reading?
[05:22.09]12.What's the similarity between a camel and a cultured man?
[05:29.35]13.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
[05:35.54]Passage Two
[05:37.71]Scientists have discovered a lake in southwest Florida that is thousands of years old.
[05:44.87]Discoveries made there have led scientists to believe this is one of the most important areas for studies of ancient man,animals,and climate in North America.
[05:56.08]At the bottom of the lake,they have found bones of now extinct10 animals that were killed and cooked for food by humans over 12,000 years ago.
[06:05.79]A hunting device11 was discovered___one of the oldest ever found.
[06:11.46]This great quantity of human remains12 and plant and animal fossils13 gives the scientists a rare chance to study combinations14 of climate,
[06:20.55]and ecology that prepared the way for human survival15 in America.
[06:25.93]The lake is at least 240 feet deep at one point.
[06:30.09]It is rich in minerals and contains very little oxygen.
[06:34.74]This has helped to preserve specimens16 in the lake that would usually have been destroyed.
[06:40.95]Because several types of animals were found that are now extinct,it raises several questions among scientists..
[06:48.27]Did these animals die of natural causes,or were they hunted into extinction17 by human beings?
[06:55.84]Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[07:01.98]14.Which of the following was not discovered at the bottom of the lake?
[07:09.14]15.Why were the specimens preserved so well in the lake?
[07:16.25]16.What does the question at the end of the passage imply?
[07:23.45]Passage Three
[07:25.57]When I was walking down the street the other day,I happened to notice a small brown leather wallet lying on the sidewalk.
[07:33.75]I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the owner's name.
[07:38.92]There was nothing inside it except some change and an old photograph
[07:44.54]a picture of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old,who looked like the woman's daughter.
[07:51.69]I put the photograph back and took the wallet to the police station.
[07:56.87]That evening I went to have dinner with my aunt and uncle.
[08:01.18]They had also invited a young woman so that there would be four people at the table.
[08:06.35]Her face was familiar.I was quite sure that we had not met before,but I couldn't remember where I had seen her.
[08:15.96]In the course of conversation,however,the young woman happened to mention that she had lost her wallet that afternoon.
[08:24.19]All at once I realized where I had seen her.
[08:27.98]She was the young girl in the photograph,although she was now much older.
[08:34.22]She was very surprised,of course,when I was able to describe her wallet to her.
[08:40.31]Then I explained that I had recognized her from the photograph I had found in the wallet.
[08:46.99]My uncle insisted on going to the police station immediately to claim the wallet.
[08:53.13]As the police sergeant18 handed it over,he said that is was amazing that I had not only found the wallet,
[09:00.29]but also the person who had lost it.
[09:04.50]Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.
[09:09.67]17.Why did the speaker open the wallet?
[09:15.76]18.What did the speaker do with the wallet?
[09:21.95]19.When did the speaker find the owner of the wallet?
[09:29.10]20.Who was the owner of the wallet?
