    填空题
    ____

    正确答案: K
    解析:
    packaged。考点:动词。分析句子结构,该句主语为cosmetics,且后面跟be,可知谓语动词使用了被动语态,所以空格处应填入过去分词。上文提到制造商的发现,绿色包装的水果卖的很差,蓝色包装的水果令人觉得讨厌,而化妆品从来不用棕色包装。所以空格处表示的是包装。观察所给选项,K项packaged“包装”符合句意。

    正确答案: B

    B

    The number of tourists will be reduced.

    C

    They are less dangerous than travelling to Mars.

    D

    正确答案: C
    解析:
    对话接近尾处时女士问道“So what about getting out of the earth’s orbit…”,男士的回中指出有这方面的计划,并提到“下一步是使大量的人参与到moon tours之中”。由此可见moon tours将是首批在地球轨道之外旅行的游客。
    【录音原文】
    W: Welcome to the Holiday Show. Today with me in the studio I have Richard Bennet, a travel consultant who’s going to tell us about the holiday for those who have been everywhere. So Richard, what’s the next frontier for the fearless traveller?
    M: We’re already working on plans that will get tourists into space within the next ten years.
    W: So do you think that in a few years’ time we’ll be having hotels on the moon?
    M: Well, possibly, but the first step will probably be suborbital trips. That’s staying within the earth’s orbit.
    W: Then how will the tourists travel?
    M: It’s about a hundred times as high as a jet plane usually goes and to get that high you’d need rocket planes, or capsules boosted by rockets.
    W: That must be exciting. Do tourists need any kind of training on earth?
    M: Yes, because there’ll be tremendous G-forces during one minute or so, and then a few minutes’ experience of weightlessness at zero gravity before the rocket returns to earth. They need a couple of days’ training to get used to them through.
    W: So can you tell us who’s going to be interested in trips like this?
    M: Well, we hope the general public will be interested in hearing about it, but it’s hardly for those wanting rest and recreation and in fact the sort of person who will probably want to do this is quite easy to target. They’re basically risk-takers.
    W: So you don’t expect all that many people to go on these trips in the beginning?
    M: No, we don’t think many people are going to pay out such large sums of money for just a few minutes. So the next stage is likely to be keeping them up there in the orbit for three or four hours.
    W: What can they do during this period?
    M: They’ll have the chance to see our planet from space, and also to see the darkness of space, and really spectacular sunsets and sunrises one after another.
    W: So what about getting out of the earth’s orbit and doing some real space tourism-holidays on Mars, for example?
    M: Well, yes, there are plans, and the next step is involving a really quite sizeable number of people in moon tours.
    W: So are we talking about hotels on the moon here?
    M: As on a cruise, your hotel is your means of transport. So it would involve taking a shuttle up to a spaceship. And passengers could even suit up and go outside space walking if they wanted.
    W: That will be marvellous!
    Questions 1 to 5 are based on the conversation.
    Q1. What is this conversation about?
    Q2. What is being planned for tourism in the beginning phase of the next ten years?
    Q3. What is said about the training?
    Q4. Who will be the potential tourists?
    Q5. What is said about moon tours?

    【录音原文】
      Good morning everyone. Today I’m going to talk to you about how to manage money. I’m afraid I’m not going to tell you how to get rich quickly, but I will tell you some simple things you can do and that will help you save more money. So, I’m going to give you five tips… simple but important advice to make sure you manage your money successfully.
      Now the first point is about how much you spend. It’s really important that you don’t overspend. For example, if you earn $2000 a month, don’t spend $2500. This is really simple. Spending less doesn’t have to be difficult. (1)You can just cut back or reduce what you spend by a little, just a few small things, then it can make a big saving. Maybe just buy one cup of coffee a day, instead of two. These small changes can make a difference.
      (2)Ah, the next point is about how much you earn. It’s important that your salary is appropriate for your job. (3)Find out how your salary compares to other people doing the same kind of job in two or three companies. If you’re going to work long hours or have lots of responsibility, you need to make sure you’re getting paid enough.
      (4)Another important point is that you need a budget. That’s a simple plan of what you spend your money on. If you have a plan, it will make saving money a lot easier. Everyone needs a budget. It doesn’t matter how much money you earn…I can’t stress this enough. Make sure you have a budget! And make sure you use it. Don’t just write it and forget about it.
      OK, now my fourth point is about managing your debt. Before you borrow money, think about what you are borrowing it for. (5)It’s a good idea to borrow money to buy assets, for example, to buy a house. And it’s a good idea to pay for your education. These things will still be worth something when you have finished paying off the debt. (6)It isn’t a good idea to borrow money for non-essentials, for example, expensive clothes, holidays or dinner at a nice restaurant. (7)If you use credit cards for these things, it’s important you know how much you are spending on them. Then, when the bill comes, pay the total bill every month. (8)Don’t just pay the minimum amount because you will always pay more, the interest what the credit card company adds on.
      And my final tip for managing your money is to plan your savings. (9)It’s a good idea to save about ten percent of your salary every month. (10)Include this saving in your budget and try and increase how much you save every year. You could do this by increasing what you earn or decreasing what you spend, or both! Saving money is a lot more positive than paying bills. So, there are five tips for managing your money successfully. They are simple but they work.

    正确答案: A
