单项选择题

听力原文:M: First, I want to thank you for doing this survey. This is an open-ended questions survey, so please don't feel held back.
W: OK, I will try my best.
M: That's good. Now, will you please tell me first what program you are a part of and what year you are in?
W: Yes, I'm currently in my fourth year of a biology course and I'm majoring in microbiology. If all goes well, I could be off to Europe for my Master's next June.
M: How do you feel about the biology program at this university? Do you think it has lived up to your expectations?
W: On the whole it has. However, as this university is still known primarily as a liberal arts school, you might say that biology doesn't always work with a very abundant budget. Perhaps the faculty hasn't fought hard enough for their fair share.
M: How do you think this under-funding problem affects the quality of education?
W: Well, for example, the laboratory has all the equipment you would normally find at a standard lab. Unfortunately, if you want to conduct experiments that are highly complex, then you probably have to compete over resources with the Chemistry Department.
M: How would you describe the quality of the professors? I guess I am interested in your own experience with them.
W: I think they are generally very well committed to the program and to their students. But the problem is that they themselves feel that they are working with inferior equipment.
M: Well, it sounds reasonable. But could you explain it more exactly?
W: Yes. I have heard many are taking contracts elsewhere, so we may lose a few just yet. This could put the program in great risk because we rely so much on skills.
M: Well, I hope your comments help to get that message across. Thanks again and I hope you have a great future.
W: Thank you.

单项选择题
听力原文: Let' s proceed to the main exhibition hall and look at some of the actual vehicles that played a prominent role in speeding up mail delivery. Consider how long it used to take to send a letter across a relatively short distance. Back in the 1600s, it took two weeks on horseback to get a letter from Boston to New York, a distance of about 260 miles. Crossing a river was also a challenge. Ferry services were so irregular that a carrier would sometimes have to wait hours just to catch a ferry. For journeys, inland there was always a stagecoach but the ride was by no means comfortable because it had to be shared with other passengers. The post office was pretty ingenious about some words. In the 19th century, in the southwestern desert, for instance, camels were brought in to help to get the mail through. In Alaska, reindeer were used. This practice was discontinued because of the disagreeable temper of these animals. We' ll stop here a minute so that you can enter this replica of a railway mail car. It was during the age of the iron horse that delivery really started to pick up. In fact, the United States transported most bulk mail by train for nearly 100 years. The first airmail service didn' t start until 1918. Please take a few moments to look around. I hope you' ll enjoy your tour. And as you continue on your own, may I suggest you visit our impressive philatelic collection? Not only can you look at some of the more unusual stamps issued but there' s an interesting exhibition on how stamps are made.What is the talk mainly about?A.Overland transportation in the nineteenth century.B.Historical aspects of mail delivery.C.Vehicles currently in use by the postal service.D.The invention of railroad.
