第4题：
BI hated dinner parties .But I decided to give them another shot because I’m in London. And my friend Mallery invited me . And because dinner parties in London are very different from those in New York, “I’m having a dinner party ” means : “I’m booking a table for 12 at a restaurant you can’t afford and we’ll be sharing the cheque evenly , no matter what you eat.” Worse, in Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives .They’ll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don’t drink, end up paying even more . But if try to use the same trick , the hostess will shout; “Where are you going ?” And it’s not like I can say I have somewhere to go : everyone knows I have nowhere to go.
But in London, dinner parties are in people’s homes . Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix .The last time I went to one , the guests were from France , India ,Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations . In New York ,the mix is less striking . It’s like a gathering at Bloomingdale’s , a well-known department store.
For New Yorkers, talking ,talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New Yorkers. But at Mallery’s , when I side that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was , In New Yorkers people would think it was a usual club.

DBanks avoiding risky investments.
正确答案： C解析：
录音中提到如果政府允许国外投资，银行就可以发放更多的贷款给大小公司。但录音中接下来提到这样做的消极面是银行可能会变得过于急切，发放贷款的收益甚至无法抵消随之而来的风险，这样一来就会造成破产，由此可知在说话者看来对于健康的经济来说银行应该避免风险投资。
【录音原文】
Financial systems can be liberalized a lot without letting in hot money. If a government opens up to investment from abroad—allowing foreign banks to buy local institutions, say, or allowing domestic banks to raise money on international capital markets—local banks can lend more to businesses large and small. This matters, because bank credit is often the only source of finance for many firms. The downside is that banks may become over-eager and make loans on which the returns do not justify the risks. That can produce horrible busts. -

A. teachers are less satisfied
