Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
It's never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need to know the art of apologizing. Look back with honesty and think how often you've judged roughly, said unkind things; pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend. Then count the occasions when you indicated clearly and truly that you were sorry. A bit frightening, isn't it? Frightening because some deep wisdom in us knows that whenever a small wrong has been committed, some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed; and it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and regret expressed.
I remember a doctor friend, the late Clarence Libel, telling me about a man who came to him with a variety of signs: headaches, insomnia and stomach trouble. No physical cause could be found. Finally Dr. Libel said to the man, "Unless you tell me what's worrying you, I can't help you."
After some hesitation, the man confessed that as executor of his father's will, he had been cheating his brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance. Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking forgiveness and enclosing a check as the first step in restoring their good relation. He then went with him to the mailbox in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man burst into tears. "Thank you, I think I'm cured." And he was.
A heartfelt apology can not only heal a damaged relationship but also make it strong. If you can think of someone who deserves an apology from you, someone you have wronged, or judged too roughly, or just neglected, do something about it right now.
When we have done something wrong, we should ______.

A. look honest and think over the fault carefully
B. escape from being disturbed
C. admit the fault and express the regret
D. forgive ourselves

听力原文:M: Have you ever looked really closely at the snowflake?
W: Sure, but they usually melt too fast for me to get a close look. Why do you ask?
M: I'm just curious. I was reading an article about the formation of snowflakes, and I real- ized that I had never paid much attention to them before.
W: WeI1, there is a big variety, isn't there?
M: Yes, but they all have one of the three basic forms: hexagonal columns, thin hexagonal plates and the blanching starshaped form.
W: I wonder why are forms different, maybe because ice starts to form. on dust particles with different shape.
M: Well, I thought it might have something, to do with the water saturation of the air. But we're both wrong. The author of this article did extensive research and concluded that. the shapes of snow crystals largely controlled by the temperature of the air. For example, the featherly star-shaped snowflake that everyone thinks is typical occurs only at a specific temperature.
W: Doesn't the relative humidity has anything to do with the shapes?
M: Apparently not. The effect of super saturation is simply to alter the growth rate. The greater the saturation, the faster the snowflakes form.
W: Why, next time when it snows. I'll make a point of taking a close look.
What are the people discussing?

A. Whether or not snowflakes can be analyzed.
B. How snowflakes are formed.
C. What causes a snowstorm.
D. Where the largest snowflakes can be found.
