听力原文： A number of people in India are being tested for possible bird flu infection following the discovery of the most virulent strain of the disease in the State of Maharashtra. Only hours earlier, the presence of the H5N1 strain of bird flu had been confirmed among thousands of dead chickens at a farm in Maharashtra. In Iran, tests on dead swans in the north of the country have shown that they were infected by the same strain. Cases have also been confirmed in Austria and in France, where tests on a wild duck found dead at a poultry farm proved it was carrying H5N1 bird flu. The United Nations special coordinator David Nabarro said the authorities everywhere had to be prepared to deal with an outbreak.
The H5N1 bird flu has been found in all the following places EXCEPT ______.

SECTION B INTERVIEW
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.
Now listen to the interview.
听力原文：W: Good morning, John, nice to be here!
M: You know, well, a lot of us spend time looking for things in the morning？ It's the glasses, it's the keys, and in my case it's always, always the other shoe.
W: Yeah, the other shoe, yeah! I've been there.
Ms What are the biggest mistakes we made when it comes to that？
W: And to speak to what you're saying, I think it's being organized. When you're disorganized, you don't know where things are. You're rifling from drawers, rifling through closets, trying to find the thing that didn't go back where it belongs. So if you can stay organized, you can really save some time.
M: All right. Let's start saving time right this minute. OK？
W: Okay.
M: No. 1, your No. 1 tip here is banking online. Now some people are afraid to do it, but you say it's something smart.
W: Yeah, yeah, 'it is very safe. And we certainly recommend that you use your own bank's website. So go to the bank, talk to the consumer service representatives there. If you have some questions about how to do it, how safe it is, it's the best way to find out how safe it is and how easy...
M: And how much time do you think you saved, Carolyn, by doing that？
W: You know if you can, write, write in a lot of checks, if you're making transfers, checking your statements, you can save 30 minutes, up, even up to an hour.
M: I've seen a lot of this number, the second tip, which is online grocers. Now, that's really not for everyone, but you actually go grocery shopping online.
W: That's exactly what you do. And you know, if you are the type of person that wants to read every label and look at every piece of fruit, it's probably not for you. But, you know, if you wanna give up a little control, you can definitely save some time. M: And what's the good strategy if you decide to go shopping online？
W: What I would suggest is especially starting out, is to do the staples online. The brands that you use all the time, the paper products, the cleaning products, the cereals, get that online and then go to the store for the meats in the produce.
M: Now for those who are big library people who like the library, you say make a preemptive strike basically and go online first before you actually make the trip out to the library.
W: That's exactly right. Check the library's website. You can reserve books rather than make a trip and find out they don't have the book that you want. You can put it in order and they will call you and let you know when it's in and then you go get it.
M: Ah, the fourth tip, I like it a lot because I travel a lot. It is to print your boarding pass before you go to the airport. That is so smart, right？
W: It's really amazing, especially when you don't have to check luggage. Because if you have to check luggage it's gonna take you a little time. But if you're just carrying on, you skip those chaos and go right to the gate.
M: That's brilliant. Now for those of us who are always sort of looking for the same phone number, I know I'm like this. I leaf through the phone book, I find the phone number, I call it, I shut the phone book and then the next week I'm gonna use that same number. What's the good way to sort or keep track of things？
W: Highlight it, you know, just do it in a bright color, so it jumps out to you if it's something that you use often and organize your phone book. That's really important. No more napkins and envelope flaps and old Christmas cards and phone numbers. Do it nicely and you will find things quicken
M: Okay, my big Achilles' heel for me is my purse. It is the bottomless horrible pit. I don't even know wh

The making of classifications by literary historians can be a somewhat risky enterprise. When Black poets are discussed separately as a group, for instance, the extent to which their work reflects the development of poetry in general should not be forgotten, or a distortion of literary history may result. This reminder is particularly relevant in an assessment of the differences between Black poets at the turn of last century (1900—1909) and those of the generation of' the 1920s. These differences include the bolder and more forthright speech of the later generation and its technical inventiveness. It should be remembered, though, that comparable differences 'also existed for similar generations of White poets.
When poets of the 1910s and 1920s are considered together, however, the distinctions that literary historians might make between "conservative" and "experimental" would be of little significance in a discussion of Black poets, although these remain helpful classification for White poets of these decades①. Certainly differences can be noted between "conservative" Black poets such as Countee Cullen, and Cluade McKay and "experimental" ones such as Jean Toomer and Langston Hughes. But Black poets were not battling over old or new styles; rather, one accomplished Black poet was ready to welcome another, whatever his or her style, for what mattered was racial pride.
However, in the 1920s Black poets did debate with specifically racial subjects. They asked whether they should only write about Black experience for a Black audience or whether such demands were restrictive. It may be said, though, that virtually all those poets wrote their best poems when they spoke out of racial feeling, race being, as James Johnson rightly put it "inevitably the thing the Negro poet knows best"②.
At the turn of the 20th century, by contrast, most Black poets generally wrote in the conventional manner of the age and expressed noble, if vague, emotions in their poetry. These poets were not unusually gift ed, though Roscoe Jamision and G. M. McClellan may be mentioned as exceptions. They chose not to write in dialect, which, as Sterling Brown has suggested, "meant a rejection of stereotypes of Nero life," and they refused to write only about racial subjects. This refusal had both a positive and a negative consequence. As Brown observes, "Valuably insisting that Negro poets should not be confined to issues of race, these poets committed (an) error.., they refused to look into their hearts and write. "These are important insights, but one must stress that this refusal to look within was also typical of most White poets of the United States at the time. They, too, often turned from their own experience and consequently produced not very memorable poems about vague topics, such as the peace of nature.
What is the author's attitude toward the classification as a technique in literary history？
This is the life of someone who wrote little, spoke little, and about whom there are few memories. Yet if anyone's life is worthy of a biography it is surely Abram Petrovich Gannibal, an African slave adopted by Peter the Great, who studied mathematics and cryptography before training as a military engineer, spied for the tsar in Paris, became an expert in fortification, was sent to Siberia, became governor-general of Tallinn, and finally retired to an estate in northern Russia as the owner of slaves himself①.
These days he is best known as the great grandfather of Alexander Pushkin, whose family liked to think their illustrious forebear was an Abyssinian prince, and a direct descendant of the legendary Carthaginian general 'whose name he boldly adopted (spelling it in the Russian way with a "g"). It was not until the 1990s that an enterprising scholar from Benin was able to challenge centuries of Russian racism and suggest that Gannibal in fact came from black Africa.
Having traveled to Cameroon and paddled up-river in a 30-foot wooden boot to interview the Sultan of Logone, the intrepid Hugh Barnes lends credence to this theory with a tantalizingly plausible interpretation for the mysterious word "Fummo" (Kotoko for "homeland" ) to be found underneath the elephant portrayed on the family crest②. Mr. Barnes does far more than just "join up the dots" between Pushkin's unfinished novel about his ancestor and its subject. The result is not merely the first detailed account in English of this remarkable life, but the fullest in any language. It is a fascinating read.
With this book, the fruit of research in an impressive list of obscure archives, Mr. Barnes not only joins the ranks of those journalists able to give academics a good run for their money, but also shows him self to be a travel writer of distinction. The story of his quest to discover Gannibal's identity in places as far flung as Novoselengisk on the Chinese border, and Pskov at the other end of the Russian empire, is engagingly told. With so little biographical material to go on (even the fabled portrait of Gannibal turns out to be that of a white man when it is restored), the dots have inevitably to be joined up with a degree of speculation. Just occasionally it leads the author astray--the Winter Palace, for example, was painted first yellow and then crimson before finally acquiring the "icy turquoise facade", which Mr. Barnes claims greeted Gan nibal when he received his dismissal from Catherine the Great in 1762.
While plenty of evidence is marshaled to show that Gannibal was the first black intellectual in Europe, his personality remains frustratingly elusive. Nevertheless, this biography of the Russian Othello does much to recast our understanding of 18th century Russian life.
