Section　B 　　 Passage　One 　　
（12）　Do　you　remember　a　time　when　people　were　a　litter　nicer　and　gentler　with　each　other?　I　certainly　do.　And　I　feel　that　much　of　the　world　has　somehow　gotten　away　from　that.　Too　often　I　see　people　rushing　into　elevators　(电梯)　without　giving　those　inside　a　chance　to　get　off　first,　or　never　saying　"Thank　you"　when　others　hold　the　door　open　for　them.　We　get　lazy.　And　in　our　laziness,　we　think　that　something,　like　a　simple　"Thank　You",　doesn't　really　matter.　But　it　can　matter　very　much.　The　fact　is　that　no　matter　how　nicely　we　dress,　or　how　beautifully　we　decorate　our　homes,　we　can't　be　truly　elegant　without　good　manners　because　elegance　(优雅)　and　good　manners　always　go　hand　in　hand.　In　fact,　I　think　of　good　manners　as　a　sort　of　hidden　beauty　secret.(13)　Haven't　you　noticed　that　the　kindest,　most　generous　people　seem　to　keep　getting　prettier?　It's　funny　how　that　happens.　But　it　does.　Take　the　long-lost　art　of　saying　"Thank　you"　like　wearing　a　little　makeup　or　making　sure　your　hair　is　neat.　Getting　into　the　habit　of　saying　"Thank　you"　can　make　you　feel　better　about　yourself.　(11)　Good　manners　add　to　your　image　(形象)　while　an　angry　face　makes　the　best　dressed　person　look　ugly. 　
　Questions　11　to　13　are　based　on　the　passage　you　have　just　heard. 　　　11.　What　is　the　passage　mainly　about? 　　
　12.　What　does　the　speaker　say　about　the　people　of　the　past? 　
　　13.　According　to　the　speaker,　how　could　we　best　improve　our　image? 　　 Passage　Two 　　 "Go　to　the　playground　and　have　fun."　Parents　will　often　say　to　their　kids.　But　they　should　remember　playgrounds　can　be　dangerous.　Each　year　about　200,000　children　end　up　(到头来，最终)　in　hospital　emergency　rooms　with　playground　injuries.　Many　injuries　involve　falls　from　too　high　equipment　onto　too　hard　surfaces.　Nearly　70%　of　the　injuries　happen　on　public　playgrounds.　
(14)　Recent　studies　show　they　may　be　badly　designed　that　protective　services　are　inadequate　and　their　equipment　is　poorly　maintained.　Parents　should　make　sure　that　the　equipment　in　playground　is　safe　and　that　children　are　playing　safely.　 　　 Last　year　the　national　programme　for　playground　safety　gave　the　nation's　playgrounds　a　grade　of　"C"　for　safety　after　visiting　more　than　3,000　playgrounds　nationwide.　
(15)　Parents　should　watch　closely.　They　should　always　be　within　shouting　and　running　distance　of　their　children.　Young　children　don't　understand　cause-and-effect,　so　they　may　run　in　front　of　moving　swings.　They're　also　better　at　climbing　up　than　getting　down,　so　they　may　panic　(害怕、恐慌)　at　the　top　of　a　ladder.　It's　important　for　children　to　know　you're　watching　them.　
(16)　Once　they　feel　that　sense　of　security　(安全感),　that's　when　they　can　be　creative　(有创造性的). 　
Questions　14　to　16　are　based　on　the　passage　you　have　just　heard.
　14.　What　is　the　cause　of　playground　injuries? 　
15.　What　should　parents　do　to　prevent　playground　injuries? 　
16.　What　does　the　speaker　say　about　young　children?　 　
　Passage　Three 　　 For　25　years　I　was　a　full-time　thief,　specializing　in　picking　pockets　(扒手).　Where　I　come　from　in　southeast　London,　that's　an　honorable　profession.　Anyone　can　break　in　a　house　and　steal　things.
　(17)　But　picking　somebody's　pocket　takes　skill.　My　sister　and　I　were　among　the　most　successful　pickpocket　teams　in　London.　We　worked　hotel　and　theatre　lobbies　(前厅，大厅),　airports,　shopping　centers　and　restaurants.　Now　we　don't　steal　anymore,　but　this　crime　is　worldwide.　Here　is　how　to　protect　yourself:　 　　 Professional　pickpockets　do　not　see　victims,　only　handbags,　jewels　and　money.　Mothers　with　babies,　the　elderly,　the　disabled　are　all　fair　game.　
(18)　My　preferred　target　was　the　lone　female,　handbag　at　her　side,　the　right　side　to　be　exact.　So　if　I'm　next　to　her　I　can　reach　it　cautiously　with　my　right　hand　across　my　body.　Only　about　one　woman　in　a　thousand　carries　her　bag　on　the　left,　and　I　tended　to　steer　clear　of　them.　Women　whose　bags　are　hanging　in　front　of　them　are　tricky　for　the　pickpocket,　as　there　isn't　a　blind　side.　If　you　want　to　make　it　even　harder,　use　a　bag　with　handles　rather　than　a　strap.
　(19)　For　men,　one　of　the　best　places　to　keep　a　wallet　is　in　the　back　pocket　of　tight　trousers.　You'll　feel　any　attempts　to　move　it.　Another　good　place　is　in　the　buttoned-up　inside　pocket　of　a　jacket.　There's　just　no　way　in.　Even　better,　keep　wallets　attached　to　a　cord　or　chain　that　is　fastened　to　a　belt. 　　
(20)　A　pickpocket　needs　targets　who　are　relaxed　and　off　guard.　The　perfect　setting　(场景、场合)　is　clothing　store.　When　customers　wander　among　the　racks,　they　are　completely　absorbed　in　the　items　they　hold　up.　The　presence　of　a　uniformed　security　guard　is　even　better.　A　false　sense　of　security　makes　a　pickpocket's　job　much　simpler.
　Questions　17　to　20　are　based　on　the　passage　you　have　just　heard. 　17.Why　does　the　speaker　say　that　picking　somebody's　pocket　is　an　honorable　profession　in　southeast　London? 　
18.　According　to　the　speaker,　who　is　most　likely　to　become　a　victim　of　pickpockets? 　
19.　In　the　speaker's　opinion,　what's　the　best　place　for　a　man　to　keep　his　wallet?
　20.　What　is　the　perfect　setting　for　picking　pockets,　according　to　the　speaker?
