听力原文： There are different ideas about pets in different parts of the world. In most countries, animals have an inferior position to human beings. In some countries, however, people treat their pets like members of their own families, or perhaps better. In the United States and Europe, where pets are very popular, there are special shops that sell jewelry, clothing, and delicious food for cats and dogs. There are shops on fashionable streets in New York City, for example, they sell gold and diamond collars, fur jackets, mittens and hats for pets.
In many countries of the world, there is special food for pets. It is common for supermarkets in many places to sell cat food and dog food. However, in France, there is a special restaurant for dogs. Dogs are the only customers. There is seating for twenty of them. On the menu, there is a variety of special tasty dishes for the dogs to choose from.
In the United States, there is a very rich cat, who can afford to go to any restaurant he chooses. His name is Kitty Cat. Kitty Cat received one hundred thousand dollars when his owner died. In addition, the owner left Kitty Cat a beautiful house to live in. There is a person who comes to the house every day to feed and take care of Kitty Cat.
Of course, in most parts of the world, pets don't live in such wealth and luxury. There is a more practical and functional attitude toward pets. People own cats and dogs because they keep away mice and other unwanted animals. Certainly, owners generally have some affectionate feeling for their pets. However, they do not see them as equal to family members. In most places in the world, there isn't any special clothing, or jewelry, or gourmet food for these animals. There aren't any special restaurants for the dogs. There are no rich cats who live in large and beautiful houses.
Pets around the world live in a great variety of ways, just as people do.

Japan is one of the superpowers in football.
1 The banners are packed, the tickets booked. The glitter and white overalls have been bought, the gas masks just fit and the mobile phones are ready. All that remains is to get to the parties.
2 This week will see a feast of pan-European protests. It started on Bastille Day, last Saturday, with the French unions and immigrants on the streets and the first demonstrations in Britain and Germany about climate change. It will continue tomorrow and Thursday with environmental and peace rallies against President Bush. But the big one is in Genoa, on Friday and Saturday, where the G8 leaders will meet behind the lines of 18,000 heavily armed police.
3 Unlike Prague, Gothenburg, Cologne or Nice, Genoa is expected to be Europe's Seattle, the coming together of the disparate strands of resistance to corporate globalisation.
4 Neither the protesters nor the authorities know what will happen, but some things are predictable. Yes, there will be violence and yes, the mass media will focus on it. What should seriously concern the G8 is not so much the violence, the numbers in the streets or even that they themselves look like idiots hiding behind the barricades, but that the deep roots of a genuine new version of internationalism are growing.
5 For the first time in a generation, the international political and economic condition is in the dock. Moreover, the protesters are unlikely to go away, their confidence is growing rather than waning, their agendas are merging, the protests are spreading and drawing in all ages and concerns.
6 No single analysis has drawn all the strands of the debate together. In the meantime, the global protest "movement" is developing its own language, texts, agendas, myths, heroes and villains. Just as the G8 leaders, world bodies and businesses talk increasingly from the same script, so the protesters' once disparate political and social analyses are converging. The long-term project of governments and world bodies to globalise capital and development is being mirrored by the globalisation of protest.
7 But what happens next？ Governments and world bodies are unsure which way to turn. However well they are policed, major protests reinforce the impression of indifferent elites, repression of debate, overreaction to dissent, injustice and unaccountable power.
8 Their options—apart from actually embracing the broad agenda being put to them—are to retreat behind even higher barricades, repress dissent further, abandon global meetings altogether or, more likely, meet only in places able to physically resist the masses.
9 Brussels is considering building a super fortress for international meetings. Genoa may be the last of the European super-protests.
According to the context, the word "parties" at the end of the first paragraph refers to ______.
