听力原文: One of the first things a visitor does upon arrival in another country is to get to know the local money. American money is unlike the money used in many other countries, since the bills, or paper money, are all the same colour and size no matter how much it is. Visitors should be careful to look at the bill before giving it out. Besides, new bills often stick together.
The coins of every country are difficult to learn at first. American coins are represented by the cent sign. Also the size of American coins do not show the value. For example, the 10-cent coin is smaller than the 5-cent coin, although it is worth twice as much. All United States coins are silver coloured, except for the "penny" (one-cent piece) , Which is a brown coin. Here are more details about Ameican coins.
Why are American bills or paper money unlike that in many other countries?
American bills are not the same color.
B. American bills are the same size and color.
C. American bills are the same color but different size.

Task 1
Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice.
Most of us might think a life without pain would be sweet.
Not so for three-year-old Gabby Gingras, who has a rare disorder which means she can not tell when she is hurting herself.
As a baby, she did not cry when given a blood test.
While her teeth were growing, she bit her fingers until they bled and she hurt her tongue.
When a tooth was knocked out, she did not cry—all because she cannot feel physical pain.
Now, she was partly blinded by her habit of putting one finger in her eyes. Her eyes improved only after Mr. Gingras made her wear swimming goggles 24 hours a day. Doctors were confused by her condition so her parents set about finding out for themselves.
Mother Trish gave up her job and finally found the answer on the Net. Gabby had a disorder that could not be cured.
The family visited another sufferer—one of only 25 in the US—but admitted:" It's discouraging".
