听力原文: Strikes are very common in Britain. They axe very harmful to its industries. In fact, there are other countries in western Europe that lose more working days than Britain. The trouble with the strikes in Britain is that they occur in central industries. There are more than 495 unions in Britain. Some unions are very small. Over twenty have more than 100 000 members. Units do not exist only to do for high wages. They also educate their members. They pro vide benefits for the sick and try to improve working conditions. Trade unionists say that we must thank the unions for the great improvement in working conditions in the last hundred years. It is now against the law for union members to go on strike without the support of their union. This kind of strike is called the unofficial strike and is common until recently. Employers feel that unofficial strikes are most harmful because they could not be predicted. But these unofficial strikes still occur from time to time and some unions have also refused to cooperate with the law. As a result, the general picture of relations between workers and employers in Britain has gone from bad to worse.
In what way are strikes in Britain different from those in other European countries?

A. They often take place in its major industries.
British trade unions are more powerful.
C. There arc more trade onion members in Britain.
D. Britain loses more working days through strikes every year.

They would fly about to evident panic, but the panic was mine, not theirs. Some flew crazily out into the daylight but some merely returned to their perches. None ever touched me, much to my relief.
They may exist but I have never seen a stuffed nylon bat. To children, bats may not be as lovable as koala bears. Perhaps manufacturers do not regard them as marketable. It is not so much their hideous faces and winged bodies that have caused us to get rid of bats, but rather the ancient myths in which dead humans, such as Count Dracula, leave their graves at night in the form. of bats to suck blood from human victims, especially fragile young woman. As we know from some movies these vampires must return to their graves before daylight. Endangered young women can frustrate vampire by sleeping with a string of garlic around their necks.
There are actually three species of bloodsucking bats. They are called vampire bats after the ancient legends, and their tactics are indeed frightful. Like Count Dracula, they feed at night. They make a small cut in their sleeping victim with sharp incisor teeth, usually not even awakening their prey. Then they suck the blood that sustains them.
Should that discourage children from wanting them as pets?
As Mitchell notes from the New Yorker ad, bats are clean and intelligent. Most of them are insect-eaters, and they serve nature by destroying crop-damaging insects. They also pollinate (传授花粉) flowers and spreading seed.
Bat Conservation International claims that without bats a host of insects/pests would multiply unchecked and many of our planet's most valuable plants would go unpollinated.
It is clear that the bat is our friend, and that, despite its appearance, it is here to serve humanity.
I'd be the first to buy a stuffed nylon bat. Children's hearts are big, and bats need love, too.
