Section B
Passage One
Take care of your teeth and your teeth will take care of you. Your teeth are a living part of your body. They have nerves and blood vessels. Diseased teeth can cause pain, die, and fall out. False teeth often do not work as well as natural teeth. If you do take proper care of your teeth, you can keep them your entire life.
Plaque is the main enemy of healthy teeth. Everyone has plaque. It is a sticky, colorless film that coats the teeth. Plaque is always forming on the teeth. Plaque that is left on the teeth for some time hardens. The result is tooth decay and gum disease. The bacteria in plaque live on sugar. They change sugar into acids. If left untreated, decay goes deeper and deeper into the tooth. After a while the decay reaches the nerves and blood vessels of the inner tooth. By the time this happens, the tooth has probably started to ache.
In addition to tooth decay, there are also gum diseases to watch out for. The bacteria in plaque make poisons that attack the gums. Teeth become loose and may fall out. Adults lose most teeth this way.
Gum disease starts slowly. There may be no pain. As a rule, gum disease first appears as swelling. Then the gums become tender. There also may be bleeding. To heal diseased gums, your teeth need one or more dental cleanings. Regular visits to your dentist are a must.
Many people worry about bad teeth. This may result from several causes. It could be due to gum disease or leftover bits of food. It may be caused by plaque. Decayed teeth can cause bad breath.
Keep your mouth healthy! When you brush your teeth, do a good job.

Passage Two
Good morning. First Id like to welcome all of you to this workshop on student housing. Ill go through the information about types of housing available for the fall and later hand out application forms. Then, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me.
There are three main types of housing here for you to choose from: the dorms, the family student apartments, and the international houses. As of now, there is some space available in each type, but they are filling up fast. You should get your application in as soon as possible. Let me explain some of the main features for each type of housing.
We have mens dorms, womens dorms, and coed dorms. Most of the rooms are doubles, with two beds, two closets, and two desks. We also have a few triples and a few single suites, but I think the suites are already taken. On each floor of the dorms there is a large bathroom and shower area. There arent cooking facilities in the dorms, but you can buy a meal ticket for the cafeteria.
The family student apartments are grouped together near the north entrance to the school. Each apartment has a kitchen, a living dining area, and either one or two bedrooms. There is a fenced play area for children.
The international houses are a group of apartments for any student. They are organized into language and culture themes, and some of them have rules about speaking only a certain language during mealtimes. Its been a good way for students to learn about other cultures as well as practice languages. These houses are for all students, no matter how much of a particular language you speak. I think that Spanish House is full, but there are rooms available in all the other houses.
Well, thats the main information. Ill pass out these applications now and answer your individual questions.

Passage Three
A baby spends the first year of life learning to listen. A newborn child comes equipped with a finely tuned pair of ears, but he doesnt yet know how to use them. A buzz of meaningless noise surrounds him. No one sound means more than any other. Unlike his ears, the hearing center of his brains is still immature. As the baby grows, two things happen. First, he becomes better at picking out certain sounds. Second, he begins to remember them.
This development is easy to see. If you make a loud sound near a day old babys head, you will not see any reaction. Only a check on his pulse or breathing rate will show a change. But just two weeks later, the same noise will make him jerk. He may even turn his head toward you, now the human voice means something to him. If he hears another baby crying, he may cry. By his fourth to sixth week, sounds like the doorbell or the closing of a door no longer surprise him.
What is actually happening is that he is starting to learn to listen. He can select certain sounds and memorize them. When he hears that sound again, he can match it with the one he has heard before. These skills are basic to all learning.
At the same time these early hearing and language skills get under way, the child begins to practice making sounds. His first sounds are the discomfort sounds. These sounds are heard when he is not quiet or sleeping. These sounds mean nothing to him yet. To his mother they say he is wet, uncomfortable, or hungry.
Within the babys first month, another sound appears: the comfort sounds. These are different from the discomfort sounds. As the child grows, his comfort sounds will use more of the vowels and consonants and rhythms which he will later use. These sounds will come together to form the first word. This special event will be long remembered by the proud parents.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. Why does a newborn baby have to spend the first year of his life learning to listen?

34. Whats a newborn babys reaction to a loud noise near him?
【解析】选。文中提到， If you make a loud sound near a day old babys head, you will not see any reaction，即如果在刚出生的婴儿的头部上方弄出大的声响，你不会看到他有任何反应，选项不理睬与原文相符。
35. When does a baby begin to use more vowels and consonants?
【解析】选。文中提到，As the child grows, his comfort sounds will use more of the vowels and consonants...，由此很容易得知本题答案为。
