听力原文： So, if there are no more questions about the facilities at student services or any of the special activities we have talked about, then we can move on to the next topic.
The last topic is health insurance. You will be required to have a health insurance policy of some sort at registration. If you are a scholarship student, you probably have automatic coverage established. If you are paying for your own tuition, you can still get insurance through the school. The forms to buy insurance from the school will be available at the registration desk when you register. If you have any questions about the benefits available, you can look at the back of the student handbook. In general, the school usually offers a good insurance policy compared to private companies so you should take a look. If you are receiving financial aid, you should contact your financial aid counselor to see if you can also receive insurance coverage.
If there are no other questions, that will do it for today .The best advice is to follow your student handbook and things should go smoothly. Remember, if there are any problems, you can ask me or any of the other student helpers. We will be under the sign that says "registrar's" at the registration area.
What is the speaker' s job？
A．The president of the university.
B．A registrar.
C．The head of the class.
D．A student.

W: We've got about six weeks, I think.
M: How about if we go to the coast？ It would be great to do some swimming and surfing.

M: What about going to Sydney？ I've never been there and they say it's a great city to visit. Lots of things to do there, I've heard.

W: What about studying？ Do you prefer a small town like White Stone or a bigger place like the state capital？
M: That doesn't matter to me. What I do care about is getting individual attention from the faculty and making friends.

M: I am. The only problem is that the white Stone's tuition fee is really high and I'm not sure I can afford it.

听力原文： A twenty-one-year-old American named Philo Farnsworth built the first working television receiver in nineteen twenty-seven. Many scientists around the world had made important discoveries that led to the development of television. But Philo Farnsworth had recognized as a boy that electrons could capture a picture sent as light and sound waves through the air.
Over the years, the technology has changed and improved. But the idea behind the television broadcast is still the same. TV stations send a powerful signal from a transmitting antenna. An antenna connected to a television set receives the signal.
The problem with this system is that the receiver antenna has to be in line with the transmitting antenna. Mountains or tall buildings can interfere. One solution is cable television.
This system began in the nineteen forties in Pennsylvania. Only a few television stations existed then, and they were in large cities. People in small towns could not receive the signals. So a store owner put an antenna on top of a pole and placed it on a nearby mountain. This antenna received the television signal. Wires led from the antenna to the store. The cable brought clear pictures to the television sets inside. Later, the idea of cable television spread to cities, to provide people with more stations to watch.
Today, people can watch hundreds of stations. And another way to receive them is with a satellite dish antenna. A small round device of the size of a pizza can receive signals from satellites .high above the Earth. The antenna is connected to a special receiver which connects to the television set. Some broadcasts over satellite can be watched free of charge. But the others cost money, just like cable service.
The passage mainly focuses on ______.
A．the importance of TV
B．the function of TV
C．the production of TV
D．the evolution of TV

听力原文： Michael Dell, the 39-year-old chairman and founder of Dell Computer, was at the top of the annual list of the "40 Richest Americans under the Age 40". His first business idea was to take apart an Apple computer in the bedroom of his parents' Houston, Texas home. From there, he went on selling computers out of his dorm room. He had developed a brand new approach to do business: sell computers directly to the consumers without going through retailers. And, in the process, he decided to design and deliver a computer based upon the customers' special needs. Prior to this there was absolutely no idea about make the PC special for each customer. In 1984, he founded the Dell Computer Corporation with US $1,000.

He said:" First of all, don't start a business just because everybody else is doing it or it looks like it's a way to make a lot of money. Start a business because you found something you really love doing and have a passion for. Start a business because you found something unique that you can do better than anyone else. And start a business because you really want to make a big contribution to society over a long period of time."
