听力原文: The Antarctic is probably the most difficult place on earth for human beings to survivE.For six months of the year there is total darkness, and temperatures may fall as law as -88~C.Even in the summer months the temperature is often below zero.
The first successful expedition to the South Pole was led by Ronald Amundsen. His team used dogs and sledges to cress the frozen continent, and reached the pole in December 1911. in 1928, Richard Byrd decided to lead an expedition to the Antarctic to explore the unknown area from the air for the first timE.It was the largest and best equipped expedition that had ever set out for the AntarctiC.Byrd and his team established a base which they called Little America on the coast of the Rosa SeA.In November 1929, during the Antarctic spring, Byrd and three colleagues flew from the Little America base to the South Pole and back in 19 hours.
Byrd's major achievement was to introduce the use of aircraft ,radio and other devices in polar exploration. He did not agree with Ronald Amundsen that the airplanes would one day replace dogs and sledges; he believed that modern techniques were only an addition to the traditional methods of exploration. All of his expeditions, therefore, carded dogs and sledges, and people to look after them. This proved very efficient, and Byrd was able to achieve results of great scientific valuE.

Mark One letter (A, B or C) on your Answer Sheet.Factors That Influence Buying BehaviorThroughout the buying process, various factors may influence a buyer's purchase decision.

Understanding culture is therefore an increasingly important step in international business and in marketing in diverse countries such as the United States.? Social class.

In general, members of various classes enjoy different activities, buy different goods, shop in different places, and react to different mediA.? Reference groups. A reference group consists of people who have a good deal in common — family members, friends, co-workers, fellow students, teenagers, sports enthusiasts, music lovers, computer buffs. We are all members of many such reference groups, and we use the opinions of the appropriate group as a benchmark when we buy certain types of products or services. For example, shopping malls are today losing what has long been their most faithful audience — teens. That's because Generation Xers (those born between 1965 and 1978) think that malls are for parents and that malls have too many rules. So some retailers like Urban Outfitters and Tower Records refuse to open stores in most malls.?
