听力原文:Hello, everyone. I'd like to tell you a story about Miss Richards.
Miss Richards was a teacher at a school for boys and girls. She taught chemistry and physics from the lowest to the highest classes in the school. Sometimes the new classes learned rapidly, but sometimes they were very slow, and then Miss Richards had to repeat things many times.
One year, the first class had been studying chemistry for several weeks when Miss Richards suddenly asked, "What is water7 Who knows? Hands up."
There was silence for a few seconds, and Miss Richards felt sad but then one boy raised his hand. "Yes, Dick?" said Miss Richards encouragingly. He was not one of the brightest students in the class, so she was glad this boy could answer.
"Water is a liquid which has no color until you wash your hands in it, then it turns black," the boy replied.
What was Miss Richards?

A chemistry teacher.
B. A physics teacher.
C. A science teacher.

听力原文:M: Are you looking forward to your trip to Canada, Susan?
W: I can't wait to see Canada, Jason, but I'm scared stiff of the journey. My husband insists on flying, but I want to sail. Planes make me nervous.
M: There's nothing to be frightened of. How many planes fly across the Atlantic every day?
W: I've no idea. Hundreds, I suppose.
M: And how often do you hear of a crash? Once or twice a year?
W: Yes, but aero-planes fly so high and fast that once is enough.
M: There are more road accidents per day than air deaths per year. Air transport is really safe compared with road transport.

M: It's fine if you're a good sailor, but have you ever traveled far in a rough sea?
W: No. I've only been in a boat once. I sailed down the River Thames on a sightseeing tour, but in any case I'd rather be sea-sick than dead.

A. Taking a voyage.
B. Taking a train.
