¡¡¡¡passage one

¡¡¡¡how do you decide what you are going to buy in a supermarket? do you look in the refrigerator and the kitchen cupboards and make a list ? do you think about what you want to cook and then buy the food you need ? even if you do these things, the supermarket makes some of the decisions for you.

¡¡¡¡specialists in marketing have studied how to make people buy more food in a supermarket. they do all kinds of things that you do not even notice. for example, the simple, ordinary food that everybody must buy, like bread, milk, flour and vegetable oil, is spread all over the store. you have to walk by all the more interesting¡ªand more expensive¡ªthings in order to find what you need. the more expensive food is in packages with bright-colored pictures. this food is placed at eye level so you see it and want to buy it. the things that you have to buy anyway are usually located on a higher or lower shelf. however, candy and other things that children like are on lower shelves. one study showed that when a supermarket moved four products from floor to eye level, it sold 78 percent more.

¡¡¡¡another study showed that for every minute a person is in a supermarket after the first half hour, she or he spends $0.50. if someone stays forty minutes, the supermarket has an additional $5.00. so the store has a comfortable temperature in summer and winter, and it plays soft music. it is a pleasant place for people to stay¡ªand to spend more money.

¡¡¡¡questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.

¡¡¡¡passage two

¡¡¡¡football is, i believe, the most popular game in england: one has only to go to one of the important matches to see this. rich or poor, young or old, one can see them all there, shouting for one side or the other.

¡¡¡¡to a stranger, one of the most surprising things about football in england is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. he can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams; he has pictures of them and knows the results of large numbers of matches. he will tell you who he expects will win such and such a match, and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three or four times his age.

¡¡¡¡most schools in england take football seriously¡ªmuch more seriously than nearly all european schools, where lessons are all that are important, and games left for the children themselves. in england it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling a boy¡¯s mind with facts in the classroom, education also means the training of character; and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games, especially team games, instead of working for himself alone. the school therefore plans games and matches for its pupils. football is a good team game. it is good both for the body and the mind. that is why it is every school¡¯s game in england.

¡¡¡¡questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.

¡¡¡¡29. what does education mean in england?

¡¡¡¡there are many forms of fighting bare-fisted. both wrestling and boxing were probably started in(36)ancient greece and rome although modern boxing is(37)believed to have started in england.

¡¡¡¡other fighting skills were (38)developed for defense against strong enemies. one story (39)goes that long ago some people of south india (40)practiced a form of fighting that required more skill than strength. they made use of strength and the (41)careless movements of the enemies to defeat them. in this way an (42)expert with nothing in hand could (43)easily defeat several enemies with spears in hand.

¡¡¡¡(44)it is said that this kind of fighting skill was first introduced to shaolin temple in henan province in china. after studying and copying the fighting movements of certain animals these people in the temple made great improvement on the indian¡¯s skill. in each country some changes were made. (45)as a result, there are now lots of different fighting skills and techniques like the chinese taiji quan, the japanese judo and many others.

¡¡¡¡today, the system of fighting bare-fisted in asia has spread out over the world. (46)fortunately, only a few people, like members of the police force and the army use this skill to fight their enemies when necessary. most of these skills are now sports and people do them just for fun.
