听力原文:W: The more I learn about the world around me, the more I am aware of the problems facing us.
M: Do you mean the problems here in China?
W: Yes, here and all over the world.
M: Well, there's one problem I'm certainly aware of and that is the environmental pollution all around us.
W: That is one of the great problems, but in many parts of the world, as people become more aware and apply new technology to solving the pollution problem, there is hope for the future.
M: What technology will help with pollution control?
W: Well, for example, I've recently read an article about using certain types of bacteria to help control some pollution problems.
M: How could that be? I thought bacteria just caused illness.
W: That's not true. Scientists have identified certain bacteria that "eat" petroleum products, such as oil and gasoline.
M: That sounds very strange. How does it work?
W: They cat the petroleum and excrete hydrogen and oxygen, leaving a clean environment behind them.
M: Could they use those little bugs to clean up big oil spills?
W: Yes, as a matter of fact, they are being proven to be the most successful method of cleaning land-based oil spills and are also useful for marine spills.
M: Wow! Are there other types of pollution those bacteria like to eat?

Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.
The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things. Therefore they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments, If they aim at obtaining some advantage in random fortune. Nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone stir a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their misconduct. These people should change this bad habit and condescend (俯就)to be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
People who are unhappy ______.

A. always consider things differently from others
B. usually are influenced by the results of certain things
C. can discover the unpleasant part of certain things
D. usually have a fault-finding habit
