[02:09.41]10.M:I've been having annoyance7 calls for two weeks.When I answer the phone,the other party hangs up without saying anything.I've tried everything including blowing a whistle into the receiver.
[02:25.11]W:Beginning today,I want you to keep a record of the time each call occurs.From this chart,we can get information to help us trace8 the calls.If necessary,the telephone company can contact the police.
[02:37.68]Q:What does the woman suggest that the man do?
[02:40.94]Passage One
[02:42.46]Are you afraid to raise your hand in class even when you know the answer?
[02:47.13]If you are,most people would say that you're shy.
[02:50.42]If you feel shy,you are not alone.9 out of 10 people are at least a little shy.
[02:57.97]But,however shy you are,scientific evidence seems to show that it isn't your fault.
[03:04.14]You may have been born that way.How do psychologists measure shyness?One way is by observation.
[03:13.02]They keep detailed9 records of people's actions,like how often these people speak to other,or how long it takes someone to say hello to a stranger.
[03:22.58]Another way to measure shyness is to ask people questions.
[03:26.92]The test only takes about 10 minutes.It asks questions like:do you like going out or not,and do you have many friends?
[03:37.18]People must answer either yes or no.These questions can predict how people actually behave in social situations.
[03:46.01]Suppose a test tells you that someone is shy,chances are good that the person will act shyly.
[03:53.25]When scientists measure shyness,they're really comparing degrees of shyness.
[03:58.29]In other words,when researchers say people are shy,they really mean they are more shy than others.
[04:04.79]11.Why does the speaker say that it isn't a fault to be shy?
[04:10.36]12.What is one of the ways suggested by psychologists for measuring shyness?
[04:17.20]13.What is the purpose of the psychologists in asking questions?
[04:23.26]Passage Two
[04:24.80]When Midori was two years old,she often climbed onto the piano bench and reached for the violin that belonged to her mother,a 38-year-old professional musician.
[04:35.25]"Please don't touch,Midori,"her mother scolded.
[04:38.49]The violin was,after all,worth more than 20,000 dollars.But Midori persisted10.
[04:44.92]She longed to handle the graceful11 instrument that made beautiful sonds.
[04:49.57]Finally,on her third birthday,midori was handed a package,a tiny violin,about half the normal size.
[04:57.82]Almost from the moment Midori was born,her mother knew she was sensitive to music.
[05:02.94]For several years mother and daughter practised together day and night.
[05:07.54]She was eager to learn.Failure often led to tears,though she never once turned from the instrument.
[05:15.14]Instead,she persisted until the problem was overcome.One day,Johnson,an American musician,heard Midori play the violin.
[05:25.62]He couldn't believe she was just eight years ol
[05:28.59]"she must make a tape and I will take it to the United States."the American musician said.
[05:34.37]A famous American violin teacher heard the tape.He,too,had difficulty in believing his ears.
[05:40.61]The play was absolutely astonishing.He immediately accepted her as a pupil and recommended her for full scholarship.
[05:48.73]In 1982,Midori and her mother moved to New York City,leaving behind a comfortable life in Japan
[05:56.23]14.What was midori's mother?
[05:59.99]15.Why was Midori not allowed to touch her mother's violin when she was only two years old?
[06:07.70]16.What did Johnson,the American musician,ask Midori to do?
[06:13.84]17.Why did Midori move to the United States?
[06:18.80]Passage Three
[06:20.47]Telephone books in the Unites States have white,blue and yellow pages.
[06:25.93]The white pages list people with phones by last name.
[06:30.03]The blue pages contain numbers of city services,goverment agencies12 and public schools.
[06:37.06]Business and professional services are listed in a special section,the yellow pages.
[06:42.89]To make a long distance call,you need an area code13.Each area in the U.S.has an area code.
[06:51.04]The area covered by one area code may be small or large.For example,New York City has one area code.
[07:00.68]But so does the whole State of Oregon.
[07:03.63]If you want to know the area code of a place,you can look it up in the area code map which is printed in the front of the white pages.
[07:11.80]There are a lot of public telephones in the U.S.They have their own numbers.
[07:17.32]If you are making a long distance call on a public telephone and run out of money,give the number on your phone to the person you're talking to.
[07:27.66]Then hang up the receiver and he can call you back.
[07:30.82]If you make a long distance call and get a wrong number,call the operator14 and explain what happened.
[07:37.35]This means that you can make the call again to the right number without having to pay more money.
[07:43.26]18.Where can you find the telephone number of a city council15 in a telephone book?
[07:50.13]19.Where can you find the area code map of the U.S.?
