Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
The chant of "digital, digital, digital" continues to grow in volume worldwide. Digital cameras, digital video camcorders (摄像放像机), video CD Players, DVD, cellular phones, and a host of computer peripherals (外围设备) are moving the trend along at a breathtaking rate. For the average person, it may seem like a remote and puzzling phenomenon meant only for the technologically adept.
Virtually every aspect of our lives could be affected by the digital revolution. Here is a hypothetical scenario (设想) to show the possibilities: A real estate agent in Seattle uses a digital still camera to take some pictures of a house she's trying to sell. She transfers them to her computer, digitally retouches and enhances them, and posts them on her company's Internet Web site. In Singapore, a buyer sees the pictures and asks via electronic mail for more information. The agent replies via e-mail and attaches the text and a digital video clip to her message. Later the buyer flies to Seattle, inspects the property, and seals the deal.
One of the biggest marketing surprises of the current age is the digital still camera. Once prohibitively expensive, these cameras have radically dropped in price while gaining in resolution (分辨率) and other features. Although they often resemble traditional cameras, they don't use film. Instead, they store images on either a small removable memory card or on the memory chip inside the camera.
The beauty of digital photography is that while you'll spend relatively more for a digital camera, you'll save a lot on film processing costs, because there aren't any. You can also discard digital pictures and keep shooting. Better yet, you can use software to enhance or alter the image. In quality, the images consumer level digital cameras produce do not compare to ones you'd get from a 35mm camera. For the most part, though, digital photos are meant to be viewed on a computer monitor, and so their resolution is more than acceptable. In a word where the speed at which you distribute information often means the difference between success and failure, and immediacy supersedes quality in importance, many people are finding a sue for digital camera.
From the first paragraph we know the average person thinks ______.

A. the digital age is far away
B. digital is too complicated for him
C. digital age is terrifying
D. both A and B

Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
听力原文: When friends come to visit us in the evening, they spend their time telling us that they are in a hurry and looking at their watches. It isn't that our friends are all very busy, it is just that we haven't got a television. People think that we are very strange. "But what do you do in the evening?" They are always asking. The answer is simple. Both my wife and I have hobbies. We certainly don't spend our evening staring at the walls. My wife enjoys cooking and painting and often attends evening classes in foreign languages. This is particularly useful as we always go abroad for our holiday. I collect stamps and am always busy with my collection. Both of us enjoy listening to music and playing chess together.
Sometimes there are power cuts and we have no electricity in the house. This does not worry us as we just light candles and carry on with what we were doing before. Our friends are lost--no television--so they don't know what to do. On such evenings our house is very full, as they all come over to us. They all have a good time. Instead of sitting in silence in front of the television, everyone talks and plays games. Yes, life is possible without a television.

And then I even had to have an interview with the general manager. And I was quite nervous for that one but I think I did a pretty good job. They said I'd find out in a couple of days if I'm going to be hired.
