Passage 7
The recent increase in car theft has alarmed the police who are looking for what they now believe must be a well-organized gang of professional car thieves. Most of the thefts have taken place in the rich residential areas round Southwell Park, where last week alone 22 car thefts were reported to the local police. Of these only one has been found, abandoned in Rockinghill Palace Road 20 miles away. The others have still not been found except for one which had been falsely reported missing. The owner later admitted that he had forgotten where he had parked it a few days before. An interesting aspect of the thefts is that nearly all the missing vehicles had been taken from locked garages. The owners now admit that they my have left the car doors unassumed that the gang find it easier to break into garages where vehicles are often left unlocked at night than into locked cars parked on the roadside in daytime or at night. They advise car owners to lock up their cars even when they are kept in locked garages.
Questions 23 to 26 are based on the passage you've just heard.
23. What has alarmed the police?
24. Where was one car found?
25. Why was one car falsely reported missing?

Passage 8
The American government, as well as every American, is touched by and concerned with inflation, and President Carter has called it our NO.1 problem.
The great jump in inflation has been during the past 10 years. Looking at the raw figures, people might consider this a time of prosperity. The wage of the average worker was $114 a week in 1969, and by September 1978 it had reached$206. On the surface it might seem that people are better off, but taking into consideration the effects of inflation, the picture is different.
In 1976 the consumer price index stood at 100 and it has now topped 200. Allowing for this, the average wage of workers was$104 in 1969 and $105 in April 1978. Since then with more inflation any gains in purchasing power has been wiped out and more taken away. In fact during the year of 1978, the buying power of the average paycheck had fallen by 3.4 percent. In addition to the income tax, there are usually state and country taxes, and in nearly all American communities, as in most of western Europe, there is a point of purchase tax, the sales tax, that is added to the cost of an item at the retail level. This is another tax that has been increasing with inflation, and it affects all purchasers.
Questions 27 to 29 are based on the passage you've just heard.
27. What does the article say about inflation?
28. How much will the dollar buy in real goods now compared with 1967?
29. What tax is collected from even the poorest citizen?
題解：
Passage 7
短文談到了近來偷車案的增多。這印證了警察們的擔(dān)擾：這些偷車案是有組織的職業(yè)偷車團(tuán)伙所為。大部分的行竊都發(fā)生在Southwell Park周圍的富人居住區(qū)。在上星期就有22起竊車案發(fā)生于此。被盜的車中只有一臺(tái)被找到，被遺棄在20英里外的Rockinghill Palace路。另外有一臺(tái)車的車主后來承認(rèn)忘記了幾天前停在何處而誤報(bào)了車被竊。有趣的是，這些竊車案幾乎都發(fā)生在上鎖的車庫。一些車主承認(rèn)可能忘記了車入庫后鎖車，但只有一位車主不確定是否鎖了車庫。警察們假定，偷車團(tuán)伙在晚上撬開了車庫，把未上鎖的車偷車或在白天、夜間偷走路邊停的車。警察們提醒車主在車入庫后仍要將車鎖好。
23.C 題車查對(duì)具體信息的捕獲。短文在開始即談到竊車事件。片面占有信息可造成對(duì)選項(xiàng)B的誤選。
24.A 本題對(duì)細(xì)節(jié)考察。
25.D 本題仍考查細(xì)節(jié)。
26.C 本題測(cè)試獲取特定信息的能力。短文在最后告訴大家"They advise car owners to lock up their cars even when they are kept in locked garages"。
Passage 8
本文開始即談到困擾美國政府和美國人民的通貨膨脹問題。卡特總統(tǒng)稱之為國家的第一大問題。盡管近十年來，經(jīng)濟(jì)上呈現(xiàn)出一片繁榮景象，通貨膨脹問題卻日益嚴(yán)重。接著短文列舉了具體數(shù)字。從1969年到1978年9月，美國人的周薪從$114增長到$206。表面看來，人們的經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況好轉(zhuǎn)，但若要考慮到通貨膨脹的影響，就是另一番情況了。
消費(fèi)者物價(jià)指數(shù)由1976年的100上升到現(xiàn)在的200。把這一點(diǎn)計(jì)算進(jìn)去，工人的平均工資在1969年是$104，到1978年4月為$105。通貨膨脹的加劇抵消了購買力的增長。在1978年，購買力甚至下降了3.4%。除了要上繳個(gè)人收入所得稅，州和郡也要征稅，在美國和西歐，幾乎都征收購買稅，也就是附加于每一零售商品上的銷售稅。這部分稅隨著通貨膨脹，也在日增，對(duì)所有的購買者都有影響。
27.D 本題測(cè)試對(duì)短文的總體理解。
28.A 本題測(cè)試把握特定信息并進(jìn)行常識(shí)性地簡(jiǎn)單計(jì)算。文中談到"In 1976 the consumer price index stood at 100 and it has now topped 200"。
29.D 本題測(cè)試獲取特定信息的能力。文章最后提到銷售稅"affects all purchasers."。
