Section A (30 points, 2 points each)
Directions: This part is to test your reading ability.There are 3 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.
Few Americans remain in one position or one place for a lifetime. We move from town to city to suburb, from high school to college in a different state, from a job in one region to a better job elsewhere, from the home where we raise our children to the home where we plan to live in retirement. With each move we are forever making new friends, who become part of our new life at that time.
For many of us summer is a special time for forming new friendships. Today millions of Americans vacation abroad, and they go not only to see new sights but also with the hope of meeting new people. No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friend, but the beginning of a friendship is possible.
The word "friend" can be applied to a wide range of relationships — to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a fellow worker, to a childhood playmate, to a man or woman, to a trusted confidant (知己) .
The reasons why many Americans move from place to place are as follows except ______.

A. saving money
B. getting a better job
C. going to college
D. finding a place to spend the rest of the life

B. The results in the domestic consumer market has dropped and thus is not very satisfactory.
C. The R&D department has tested a new engine.
D. The number of the staff has been reduced.

听力原文: I'd like to spend a few minutes of your time looking back over the year. I'm going to divide my review into three areas: first, financial, secondly, personnel and finally technology.
On the financial front, the results have been very pleasing. Turnover has increased by 14%, costs have dropped by 3%; and profits are up by 16%. So the company as a whole has performed well. Some business areas have done better than others. Exports sales have done very well— especially in America, our largest export market. The domestic consumer market has been very competitive and will continue to be so—our results in this market have been rather disappointing—just l% up compared with last year.
Right, let's move on to personnel. Our policy of Personnel development through training and promotion opportunities has continued to be a great success. We have actually recruited 72 new staff, while 20 have retired so there's a net balance of 52. The training department has expanded considerably and moved into new areas such as quality assurance and sales training.
Finally, technology. I thought you would be interested to have an update since this is vital for our future growth. Over the last year, our R & D department has thoroughly tested a new prototype engine. Results so far have looked promising. We have also invested heavily in a European technology program which links industry with the universities.
Right, those are the three main areas. Are there any questions, before I go on?
Questions:
15.Which area is not mentioned in the talk?
16.Which of the following has decreased this year?
17.Which of the following statements is true according to the talk?
18.Who is the man giving a presentation to?
(35)

A. Financial.
B. Personnel.

D. Technology.
