The Statue of Liberty stands magnificently on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. It is a national monument which was presented by France on October 28, 1886 to remember the American Revolution. Wall Street was built by the Dutch to protect the colony from Indian attack. Now it is America's financial center. Broadway is an avenue in Manhattan, a symbol of the New York theatre. At night it is brilliantly lit by spectacular lighted signs which have given it the name "The Great White Way".

2017年6月大学英语四级听力练习(1)

2017年6月大学英语四级听力练习（1）* How Did Thanksgiving 'Turkey' Get its Name? 感恩节“火鸡”是如何得名? The U.S. Thanksgiving holiday is symbolized by its traditional food, a large bird we call a turkey. But turkey is certainly not from Turkey. In fact, its English name is based on one big mistake. We could say it is a case of mistaken identity. Let’s set the record straight. The word “Turkey”has meant “the land of the Turks”since ancient times. The word “turkey”as it refers to the bird

first appeared in the English language in the mid-1500s. The misunderstanding over the word happened because of two similar-looking kinds of birds. There is an African bird called the guinea fowl. It has dark feathers with white spots and a patch of brown on the back of its neck. Portuguese traders brought the guinea fowl to Europe through North Africa. This foreign bird came to Europe through Turkish lands. So, the English thought of the bird as a “Turkish chicken.” When Europeans came to North America, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was native to the North American continent. Orin Hargraves is a lexicographer, someone who writes dictionaries. Hargraves explains what happened. “Some Europeans saw an American turkey, thought that it was the guinea fowl, which at that time was called the ‘turkey cock,’and so gave it the same name." Hundreds of years later, we continue to call this North American bird “turkey,”even though it has no connection at all with the country Turkey, or even with Europe. But English is not the only language with interesting -- and even questionable -- names for this North American bird.

英语四级听力练习大全

英语四级听力练习大全 Over the past 40 years, Cambodia's cultural treasures have been under attack. Many artifacts have disappeared from ancient religious centers and other historic sites across Cambodia. A large number of the objects were secretly removed from the country and sent to art museums and private collections around the world. New research shows that much of this activity was the work of organized crime. It also suggests that most pieces have disappeared from public view, probably forever. Cambodia's 1,000-year-old temples and other historic areas first came under attack in 1970, at the start of the Cambodian civil war. The looting and raids continued until the fighting stopped about 30 years later. One incident in the early 1970s involved government soldiers. They used a military helicopter to airlift ancient artifacts from a 12th Century fort in the northwest. The 10th-century Cambodian sandstone statues from the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is blessed by Cambodian Buddhist monks in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, June 11, 2020. At the same ruins in 1998, generals tore down and removed 30 tons of the structure. Six military trucks loaded with artifacts were sent toward the border with Thailand. Only one of the six trucks was stopped and its objects returned. The rest disappeared. For years, researchers believed that such well-organized attacks were rare, and that most of the raids involved local

M: Really? Q: What does the woman mean? 选项：A) She purchased a car recently. B) She knew the car was in the lot.
