听力原文：W: I've been reading about a new snack food. It's made from fish. Have you heard anything about it？
M: No. I haven't, but 1 don't like fish very much anyway.
W: Not to worry. Although it's made primarily from fish, it actually doesn't have a fishy taste. In fact, it can be flavored with tomato, cheese, or chocolate for instance
M: How can it not taste fishy？ Do you know how this snack food is made？
W: First the fish is minced and cooked and fermented. Then water and starch are added to make a dough.
M: It sounds awful.
W: Actually the dough is very bland al that point, so the flavorings are added to give it some taste.
M: Well, it still sounds a little strange. But I suppose this product will at least be low calorie and high protein. like a health food.
W: Yes, you could call it that. And it has a long shelf life, so it won't spoil quickly. It is also easy to digest and can ha made from types of fish that usually aren't eaten, or from high grade fish by-products,
M: Mm, have you got any samples？ I might be willing to try the cheese-flavored variety.
W: No, none of it seems to be available yet. As I understand it, this fish snack food probably won't be in the stores for another couple of years. So you'll have a while to get used to the whole idea.
M: A couple of years, ah？ It may just take me that long. but thanks for telling me about it.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following. In the early days of nuclear power, the United States made money on it. But today opponents have so complicated its development that no nuclear plants have been ordered or built here in 12 years.
The greatest fear of nuclear power opponents has always been a reactor “meltdown” (堆内熔化). Today, the chances of a meltdown that would threaten U.S. public health are very little. But to even further reduce the possibility, engineers are testing new reactors that rely not on human judgement to shut them down but on the laws of nature. Now General Electric is already building two advanced reactors in Japan. But don’t expect them ever on U.S. shores unless things change in Washington.
The procedure for licensing nuclear power plants is a bad dream. Any time during, or even after, construction, an objection by any group or individual can bring everything to a halt while the matter is investigated or taken to court. Meanwhile, the builder must add nice-but-not-necessary improvements, some of which force him to knock down walls and start over. In every case where a plant has been opposed, the Nuclear Regulation Commission has ultimately granted a license to construct or operate. But the victory often costs so much that the utility ends up abandoning the plant anyway.
A case in point is the Shoreham plant on New York’s Long Island. Shoreham was a virtual twin to the Millstone plant in Connecticut, both ordered in the mid-’60s. Millstone, completed for $101 million, has been generating electricity for two decades. Shoreham, however, was singled out by anti-nuclear activists who, by sending in endless protests, drove the cost over $5 billion and delayed its use for many years.
Shoreham finally won its operation license. But the plant has never produced a watt of power. Governor Mario Cuomo, an opponent of a Shoreham start-up, used his power to force New York’s public-utilities commission to accept the following settlement; the power company could pass the cost of Shoreham along to its consumers only if it agreed not to operate the plant! Today, a perfectly good facility, capable of servicing hundreds of homes, sits rusting.

A) The inefficiency of the Nuclear Regulation commission.
