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 four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Most shops in Britain open at 9:00 a.m., and close at 5:00 in the evening. Small shops usually close for an hour at lunchtime. On one or two days a week — usually Thursday and/or Friday — some large food shops stay open until about 8:00 p.m. for food shopping.
Nearly all shops are closed on Sundays. Newspaper shops are open in the morning, and sell sweets and cigarettes as well. But there are legal restrictions on selling many things on Sundays.
In general, overseas visitors don’t have difficulty knowing where to buy things. Most shops sell the things that you would expect them to. One problem is stamps. In Britain you can only buy these at the post office.
Many large food shops are self-service. When you go into one of these shops you take a basket and put into it the things you wish to buy. You line up at the cash desk and pay for everything just before you leave.
When you are waiting to be served in a shop it is important to wait for your turn and not to try to be served before people who arrived before you.
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. How long a day do most shops in Britain stay open?
27. What shops are not closed until about 8 o’clock one or two days a week?
28. Where can we get cigarettes on Sunday morning according to the passage?
Passage Two
Most people are aware that the earth is a delicate thing, and that it cannot last forever, if we do not take care of it. Apart from the dangers of blowing each other up, there is the problem of polluting the environment, and the destruction of wildlife by hunters.
Many species of whales, for example, are in danger of extinction because of hunters who continue whaling despite the world’s attempts to limit the annual catch. Seals are also threatened; and with the increasing use of nuclear power to generate electricity, a new danger has arisen: the pollution of oceans by nuclear waste.
The Greenpeace organization exists to draw our attention to these problems. Its aim is to protect the environment and maintain the balance of nature. It takes direct actions to prevent the killing of whales and seals, and to stop the dumping of nuclear waste at sea.
As well as actually hindering activities in these areas, Greenpeace exerts diplomatic pressure to persuade governments to pass new laws to make these things illegal.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. What does the speaker mean by saying “the earth is a delicate thing”?
30. Why are many species of whales in danger of extinction?
31. Why is the earth faced with a new danger with the use of nuclear power to generate electricity?
