听力原文： The ten years of the 1960s was a period of profound change in many parts of the world．In the United States，beginning with the Civil Rights Movement in the early 1960s，and extending through the Vietnam War，millions of Americans began to challenge established authority．These movements were initially political．Young Americans demanded that governmental policies in race relations and international relations correspond to the ideals of justice contained in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States．By the end of the decade，however，challenges to authority were carried far beyond political issues and were directed at the social order and deeply rooted cultural patterns of the country．
The generation that came of age in the 1960s，the Baby Boom generation，sought change in almost every aspect of life in the United States．For example，they experimented with cooperative economic institutions and communal living arrangements，broke sexual taboos，altered the process of education，explored non-Western spiritual traditions，developed a strong respect for the environment，and transformed popular culture．As a whole，these changes stood for a different set of cultural values that provided a thorough critique of American society as it existed at that time．Although many“alternative lifestyles”were short-lived，cultural changes that began in that period have had a continuing effect on much of American life，particularly in attitudes toward male-female relations．
All cultures are complex．They are a combination of closely related patterns of social interaction．As a result，changes in an important aspect of a particular culture will usually produce changes throughout the society．The Women's Movement that began in the United States during the 1960s is a typical example of this phenomenon．From the beginning，the Women's Movement was influenced by cultural changes that had occurred earlier in the decade．The Civil Rights Movement for racial equality and the development of the birth control pill were particularly important—the Civil Rights Movement because women involved in the effort for racial justice began to see themselves as victims of social injustice，and the birth control pill because it gave women reliable control over reproduction．
Social，economic，and legal equality and reproductive rights continue to be the basic principles of the Women's Movement．As some of these goals have been achieved，major changes have occurred in broader cultural patterns such as the economy and the family．At the present time，most of American women are employed．Employment is no longer confined to such traditional female occupations as teacher，nurse，or secretary．Women are now found in every occupation and at all levels of responsibility and authority．Participation in the economy has given many women an independence that has allowed them to choose whether，when，and how to form. a family．Working women within families now are part of an economic partnership with men in which both adults provide support for the family unit and are responsible for the quality of life．
The Women's Movement has affected the relationship between men and women in the family in other ways as well．Women have challenged traditional sex roles in the household．Men are now expected to participate in child-raising and domestic activities to a much greater extent than in the past．Childbearing is now a matter of family choice，with women having the final decision in family planning．
All of these cultural changes are strengthened in both the media and in the educational system．Children are growing up with self-images and expectations far

Part B (10 points)
In the following article, some sentences have been removed. For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable one from the list A-G to fit into each of the numbered blanks. There are two extra choices, which do not fit in any of the blanks.
Long before man lived on the Earth, there were fishes, reptiles, birds, insects, and some mammals. Although some of these animals were ancestors of kinds living today, others are now extinct, that is, they have no descendants alive now. Nevertheless, we know a great deal about many of them because their bones and shells have been preserved in the rocks as fossils.
41.That kind of rock in which the remains are found tells us much about the nature of the original land, often of the plants that grew on it, and even of its climate.
When an animal dies, the body, its bones, or shell, may often be carried away by streams into lakes or the sea and there get covered up by mud. If the animal lived in the sea its body would probably sink and be covered with mud. More and more mud would fall upon it until the bones or shell become embedded and preserved. 42．Thus it follows that there must be many kinds of mammals, birds, and insects of which we know nothing,
43．Later forms are more complex, and among these are the sea-lilies, relations of the star-fishes, which had long arms and were attached by a long stalk to the sea bed, or to rocks. There were also crab-like creatures, whose bodies were covered with a horny substance, The body segments each had two pairs of legs, one pair for walking on the sandy bottom, the other for swimming. The head was a kind of shield with a pair of compound eyes, often with thousands of lenses. They were usually an inch or two long but some were 2 feet.
The shellfish have a long history in the rock and many different kinds are known. Of these, the ammonites are very interesting and important. They have a shell composed of many chambers, each representing a temporary home of the animal. As the young grew larger it grew a new chamber and sealed off the previous one. Thousands of these can be seen in the rocks on the Dorset Coast.
The first animals with true backbones were fishes, first known in the rocks of 375 million years ago. About 300 million years ago the amphibians, the animals able to live both on land and in water, appeared. They were giant, sometimes 8 feet long, and many of them lived in the swampy pools in which our coal seam, or layer, formed. 44．About 75 million years ago the Age of Reptiles was over and most of the groups died out. The mammals quickly developed, and we can trace the evolution of many familiar animals such as the elephant and horse. 45．__
[A] The best index fossils tend to be marine creatures. These animals evolved rapidly and spread over large areas of the world.
[B] The amphibians gave rise to the reptiles and for nearly 150 million years these were the principal forms of life on land, in the sea, and in the air.
[C] Many of the later mammals, though now extinct, were known to primitive man and were featured by him in cave paintings and on bone carvings.
[D] Nearly all of the fossils that we know were preserved in rocks formed by water action, and most of these are of animals that lived in or near water.
[E] The earliest animals whose remains have been found were all very simple kinds and lived in the sea.
[F] Many factors can influence how fossils are preserved in rocks. Remains of an organism may be replaced by minerals, dissolved by an acidic solution to leave only their impression, or simply reduced to a more stable form.
[G] From them we can tell their size and shape, how they walked, the kind of food they ate. Very occasiona
