听力原文： Good morning, class. I have some great news for you all. Contemporary novelist Marie Irvine is coming to our university next month to lecture on the influence of women writers in the literary scene. If you can recall, we have read a few of Ms. Irvine's works in our textbook, and she is often considered one of the dozen best writers in the country. Not only is she going to give a lecture here, but also I have been able to convince her to lead a creative writing workshop for interested students. Since this is an advanced writing class, and you all have made considerable progress, I decided to offer the class the opportunity to join the workshop before this is offered to the entire campus.
The workshop will be two days long, held in the main lecture hall of this building. Ms. Irvine has assured me that participants in the workshop will work closely with her and get all the personal attention they need. She will particularly focus on the problems of female writing. Since there are only fifteen spots open for this workshop, I suggest you sign up as soon as possible before all the seats are taken. The cost of the workshop is ＄ 200, and this fee includes all your materials and a dinner banquet that will be held afterwards. You must pay an ＄ 80 deposit to reserve a spot, and the remainder of the tuition must be paid in two weeks. I should mention that the English department is co-sponsoring the workshop. If you would like to register, please see me after class. I encourage you to take advantage of this rare opportunity.

Some of these writers are doctors; others are lawyers or educators. But among the most famous writers of advice are two women without special training for this kind of work. One of them answers letters addressed to "Dear Abby". The other is addressed as "Dear Ann". Experience is their preparation for giving advice.
There is one writer who has not lived long enough to have much experience. She is a girl named Angel Brown, who started writing advice for newspaper readers at the age of ten. Her advice to young readers now appears regularly in the Philadelphia Bulletin in a column called "Dear Angel".

听力原文： Science fiction writers have often imagined human beings going to live on Mars. But these days, scientists are taking the idea seriously. It has a great deal to recommend it, since it might solve the problem of overcrowding on the earth. But obviously, it would not be worth making the effort unless people could live there naturally. If the atmosphere were like that of the earth, this might be possible. But in fact it is mostly carbon dioxide. Apart from that, there are other problems to be overcome. For example, the temperature would have to be raised from 60 degrees below zero to 15 degrees above it. Scientists who study Mars have laid down the program that they can follow. To begin with, they will have to find out whether life has ever existed on the planet of Mars in the past. Secondly, they will have to make a reliable map of its surface. And finally, they will have to make a list of the gases. Above all, they will have to discover how much nitrogen it possesses, since nitrogen is four fifths of the air we breathe. They are surprisingly optimistic about raising the temperature on Mars and believe it could be done in two hundred years. It will take a bit longer, though, to transform. the atmosphere so that human beings, could live there. Scientists estimate that this will take one hundred thousand years.
(33)
A．Because people might have to migrate there someday.
B．Because it is very much like the earth.
C．Because it is easier to explore than other planets.
D．Because its atmosphere is different from that of the earth.

Harlem Renaissance (文艺复兴)—A Brief Introduction
Important Features
1. Harlem Renaissance(HR) is the name given to the period from the end of World War I and through the middle of the 1930s Depression, during which a group of talented African-American writers produced a sizable body of literature in the four prominent genres of poetry, fiction, drama, and essay.
2. The notion of "twoness", a divided awareness of one's identity, was introduced by W.E.B. Du Bois, one of the founders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP)and the author of the influential book The Souls of Black Folks (1903): "One ever feels his two-ness an American, a Negro; two souls, two thoughts, two unreconciled stirrings: two warring ideals in one dark body, whose dogged strength alone keeps it from being tom asunder."
3. Common themes: alienation, marginality, the use of folk material, the use of the blues tradition, the problems of writing for an elite audience.
4. HR was more than just a literary movement: it included racial consciousness, "the back to Africa" movement led by Marcus Garvey, racial integration, the explosion of music particularly jazz, spirituals and blues, painting, dramatic revues, and others.

第5题
A third assumption common to the five writers is that intuition and imagination offer a surer road to truth than does abstract logic or scientific method. It is illustrated by their emphasis upon introspection -- their belief that the clue to external nature is to be found in the inner world of individual psychology -- and by their interpretation of experience as, in essence, symbolic. Both these stresses presume an organic relationship between the self and the cosmos of which only intuition and imagination can properly take account. These writers' faith in the imagination and in themselves as practitioners or imagination led them to conceive of the writer as a seer and enabled them to achieve supreme confidence in their own moral and metaphysical insights.
The author's discussion of Emerson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, Melville and Whitman is primarily concerned with explaining ______.
A．some of their beliefs concerning the world and the place that humanity occupies in the universal order
B．some of their beliefs concerning the relationship between humanism and democracy
C．the way some of their beliefs are shaped by differences in temperament and literary outlook
D．the effects of some of their beliefs on their writings
