For the first time ever, the scientific community has established the existence of planets outside our own solar system. Of course, we knew that certain distant stars existed, but only recently did we learn that several of them are orbited by their own planets.Why did it take so long to locate those planets?Well, you have to understand, that they are a billion times dimmer than their parent stars. It would be like trying to see the light of a candle next to a huge explosion. We dont currently have a telescope that can be used to see them.But if the astronomers didnt see the planets through a telescope, how did they find them?By a very indirect method. Umm, the astronomers measured subtle distortions in the frequency of the light from the parent stars and observed that some of the stars seem to rock back and forth. They determined that this is caused by the gravitational pull from orbiting planets.There is a powerful new telescope being built in Arizona. Will that help them see these planets?They should be able to see them at least in the form of small pots of light. And then the scientists would be able to break down and analyze this light. By doing this, they hope to learn about the chemical composition of these planets. Oxygen and ozone molecules, for example, would be telltale signs of life on these planets.Im working forward to hearing more when the telescope is in operation and Im sureour readers would be interested too.31. What is the purpose of the conversation?(A) To gather information for the students astronomy class.(B) To write a research paper about a recent discovery in space.(C) To report findings from an astronomers conference.(D) To get information for the astronomy club.答案：C32. What is the conversation mainly about?(A) The possible existence of life on other planets.(B) Methods for building powerful new telescopes.(C) A technical problem that astronomers cant solve.(D) The discovery of planets orbiting distant stars.答案：D33. How did scientists establish the existence of the planets?(A) They studied variations in the appearance（外表） of the parent stars.(B) They were able to see the planets with a telescope.(C) They compared the parent stars to the Sun.(D) They sent astronauts on a mission into space.答案：A34. What does the professor say the scientists might learn about the planets by using thenew telescope?(A) Their surface features.(B) Their chemical composition.(C) Their temperature.(D) Their age.答案：BQuestions 35-38 Listen to a conversation between two college students in a cafeteria.Is this table in the corner okay?Sure, we can sit here.Gee, youve hardly got any thing on your tray.Yeah, I guess Im just not that hungry.Whats the matter? Are you feeling well?Well, Ive been really worried. Its my car. Its in the shop again!Really? Whats wrong this time?I dont know exactly. Somethings wrong with the brakes I think.Well, at least that shouldnt cost too much to fix. Parts are cheaper for old American cars like yours. Did the mechanic say how much it would cost?He said hed call me with an estimate later on today.Watch out he doesnt try to take advantage of you.What do you mean?Well, some car mechanics, if they think that someone doesnt know much about cars, they might try to overcharge that person.Maybe so, but I trust this guy. He was recommended by one of my neighbors. Hes done some work for me in the past and his prices seemed to be reasonable.Oh, thats good to know. Maybe Ill try using him in the future. By the way, did you need a ride home after class today?Oh, Ill sure appreciate it. Its really tough getting around without a car when you live off campus.35.

What does the man offer to do?(A) Take the woman to her home.(B) Test-drive the womans car.(C) Help the woman pay the mechanics bill.(D) Help the woman fix her car.答案：APart CQuestions 39-42 Listen to part of a talk being given to a film class on a college campus.To get us started this semester I am going to spend the first two classes giving you background lectures about some basic cinematic concepts. Once you are a little more familiar with basic film terminology, we will be ready to look at the history of movies in the United States. Youll be expected to attend showing of films on Tuesday evenings at 7 oclock in Jennings Auditorium. Thats our lab. Then during our Wednesday seminar, well discuss in depth the movie we saw the night before.We are not covering silent films in this course. We will begin with the first talking motion picture, The Jazz Singer, released in 1927. The next week, well be looking at The Gold Diggers of 1933, a piece that is very representative of the escapist trend in films released during the depression. Some of the films we will be watching will probably be new to you, like Frank Capras Why We Fight. Others you might have already seen on TV like Rebel without A Cause starring James Deane, or Stanley Coopers Doctors Strange Love. However, I hope you see even familiar film with new eye.In the last three weeks of the course, we will be watching films from the 1980s and youll choose one of them as a subject for an extensive written critique. Well talk more about the requirements of the critique later in this semester.39. What is the purpose of this talk?(A) To review before a final exa
