听力原文：Robinson: Li, I suggest we do a quick tour of central London. As it is Sunday, there is very little traffic. What do you think？
Li: That's a great idea, Robinson. What a wonderful view! Robinson: It is, isn't it？ We are now on the south bank of the Thames. You can see the Houses of Parliament and here. I used to work as a tourist guide when I was a student. Let's see if I can still do it. We're now crossing Lambeth Bridge into Westminster. Now we can turn right and drive past Westminster Abbey, where the kings and queens of England are crowned.
Li: What's that park on the left？
Robinson: That's St. James's Park. We'll drive back here later. Now we're going along Whitehall. Number 10 Downing Street, where the Prime Minister lives, is on your left.
Li: Is that the one with the policeman standing outside？
Robinson: That's it. We're coming into Trafalgar Square. This is equally famous for its statue of Horatio Nelson and its pigeons.
Li: Horatio . . . ？
Robinson: Nelson. The naval captain who defeated Napoleon at the battle of Trafalgar in 1805, and so stopped him from invading England. And this is Piccadilly Circus with its statue of the Greek god of love, Eros. This area we are coming into now is called Soho. This is London's Chinatown.
Li: Now I know where to come when I feel homesick!
Robinson: I hope you're not feeling homesick already. This area is the main entertainment district. You'll find most of the cinemas and theatres here. We're now going up Chafing Cross Rd. , and on your left is the world's biggest bookshop Foyles.
Li: Do they sell science books？
Robinson: They sell books on every subject and in most languages. Now we'll drive around the British Museum so that you can get your beatings.
Li: Isn't this where Marx used to collect material for Capital？
Robinson: That's right. He used to work in the British Museum Reading Room. You'll be working there too shortly. The University of London is only a few minutes walk from here. This is Oxford St. the main shopping district. Every British department store has a branch here.
Li: It's very quiet for a shopping centre.
Robinson: That's because it's Sunday. All the big shops are closed. The rest of the week it's crowded with tourists. Here we are at Marble Arch, at the northeast corner of Hyde Park.
Li: What are all those people over there shouting about？
Robinson: That's Speaker's Corner. Every Sunday people come here to argue about every subject under the sun from how the Earth is really flat to the danger of nuclear war.
Li: I must come here one Sunday.
Robinson: As a speaker or a heckler？
Li: Neither. As a spectator only!
Robinson: Now where driving down Park Lane. On the left is Mayfair-the embassy quarter.
Li: Where is the Chinese Embassy？
Robinson: It's not here. It's in Portland Place, just south of Regent's Park.
Li: Is that Hyde Park on the right？
Robinson: It certainly is. And we're coming into Green Park now. We'll have a quick look at Buckingham Palace. Every
morning at exactly 11:30, from April until the end of September, the Changing of the Guard takes place.
Li: So, that's the palace! By the way, is our College far from here？
Robinson: No, only about ten minutes. Now, we're coming into your neighbourhood.
From which place did they start their sightseeing？

听力原文： Manila (dpa) -Philippine President Joseph Estrada demanded a cut in the share of tobacco taxes intended to support farmers in the northern, province of Ilocos Sur as a condition to releasing the funds; a local official alleged on Tuesday.
On the 9th day of the impeachment trial of Estrada, llocos Sur provincial Governor Luis Singson testified that the chief executive asked for the kickbacks to help repay debts incurred in the presidential campaign in 1998.
Singson is the prosecution's star witness in the impeachment trial of Estrada, who is accused of bribery, graft and corruption, betrayal of public trust and violations of the constitution.
The governor, a former drinking and gambling buddy of the president, said he agreed to the condition to ensure that the much-needed funds would be released immediately to boost Ilocos Sur's tobacco industry.
"When I asked him about his campaign promise to release the funds, he told me, 'I hope you can help me since I have many expenses in the elections' ", Singson told the Senate tribunal. "I told him I will give him 10 per cent of the funds to be released."
The Department of Budget subsequently released 200 million pesos (4 million dollars) of llocos Sur's share of the tobacco taxes, which was provided for by a law.
Singson said the president asked for 130 million pesos (2.6 million dollars) of the amount, instead of the 10 per cent cut. The money was given to Estrada through Charlie "Atong"Ang, a close presidential friend.
The governor said First Lady Loi Ejercito and presidential son Mayor Jinggoy Estrada also got a portion of the kickbacks. He added that Estrada asked him to cover-up the kickbacks until more funds could be released.
The president's defence lawyers are set to cross-examine Singson on January 2, 2001.
Singson earlier testified that Estrada collected more than 8 million dollars in illegal gambling payoffs. The prosecution has established a paper trail for the money, a part of which has been deposited to a bank account of a foundation Estrada set up for Moslem youth scholars.
The senator-judges on Tuesday also affirmed the decision of Supreme Court Chief Justice Hilario Davide, the presiding officer in the trial, to allow prosecutors to inspect records of a bank account suspected to be secretly owned by Estrada.
The court, however, postponed the opening of a sealed envelope containing documents pertaining to the Equitable PCI Bank account until after the defence's motion for reconsideration of the ruling is resolved.
Prosecutors said the bank account, which is under the name of Jose Valhalla, is actually owned by Estrada. They stressed that the account's records were key to proving that Estrada is "committing a continuing offence" of graft and corruption.
Estrada would be removed from office before the end of his six-year term in 2004 if two-thirds of the 22-member Senate find him guilty in any of the four articles of impeachment. A verdict is not expected until the end of January 2001.
The senate tribunal also set another special session for Wednesday to look into reports that a police intelligence agency has been illegally monitoring the telephone calls of the members of impeachment court.
Prosecutors, senator-judges and other people identified to be have been illegally monitored have expressed outrage over the illegal monitoring, which the reporters said became "full-blown" when the impeachment trial of Estrada started on December 7.
Estrada, who is accused of EXCEPT_____.
