What's NASDAQ?
NASDAQ is a familiar but strange name for people.We often learn its news via different kinds of media,though quite a lot of people can not tell what exactly it means.
NASDAQ,short for the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations system,is one of the largest market in the world for stocks trading. The number of companies in NASDAQ is more than that of the other stock exchange in America,including the New York Stock Exchange(NYSE)and the American Stock Exchange(AMEX).
Most of the companies listed on NASDAQ are smaller than most of those on the NYSE and AMEX.NASDAQ has become recognized as the home of new technology companies,especially computer and computer-related businesses.Trading on NASDAQ is initiated by stock brokers acting on behalf of their clients.The brokers negotiate with market makers who concentrate on trading specific stocks to reach a price for the stock.
Different from other stock exchange,NASDAQ has no central location where trading takes place.Instead,its market makers can be found all over the country and make trades by telephone and via the Internet. Since brokers and market makers trade stocks directly instead of on the floor of a stock exchange,NASDAQ is called an over-the-counter market. The term over-the-counter refers to the direct nature of the trading,as in a store where goods are handed over a counter.
Since its foundation in 1971,the NASDAQ Stock Market has been the innovator. As the world's first electronic stock market,NASDAQ long ago set a precedent for technological trading innovation that is unrivaled.Now poised to become the world's first truly global market,the NASDAQ Stock Market is the market of choice for business industry leaders worldwide.By providing an efficient environment for raising capital NASDAQ has helped thousands of companies achieve their desired growth and successfully make the leap into public ownership.

短文理解听力原文： Dealers in government and private securities need short-term financing to purchase new securities and carry their existing portfolios of securities until those securities are sold to customers or reach maturity. Such loans are readily granted by many of the largest banks because of their high quality--often backed by pledging the dealer's holdings of government securities as collateral. Moreover, many loans to securities dealers are so short-overnight out to a few days that the bank can quickly recover its funds or make a new loan at a higher interest rate if the credit markets have tightened up.21. Who need short-term financing according to the passage?22.Why such loans are so high quality?23.How long will the dealers keep such loans?(21)A．Dealers in foreign exchange.B．Dealers in government bonds.C．Dealers in IPO.D．Dealers in government private securities.

第二篇Things We Know about TVWe keep reading that TV is bad for you.If this is true,how come the current generation of TV-addicted kids is much smarter than we are?In my home,the only people who can work the remote control are the children.Perhaps TV does educate you.For example,you learn a useful medical fact:A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence before he dies.“The killer was…” (dies).But I guess the biggest things we learn from TV can be regarded as"Life Skills".Bad things only happen on dark and stormy nights.Emotional breakdowns cause people to wander in the heavy rain without umbrellas.And contrary to what scientists say,the crack（霹雳）of lightning and the accompanying flash happen at exactly the same time,wherever you are.Making use of what we learn from TV can improve our security.Consider these truths.If you are ever attacked by 20 bad guys,don't worry about being outnumbered.The criminals will hang back and take turns to approach you in ones and twos just so you can conveniently defeat them all.TV also teaches us important information about escaping from danger. Watch and learn.If anyone is running after you down a passage,you will find that boxes have been conveniently placed near all the walls you need to jump over. If you are tall and handsome,you can run from any number of armed criminals,and every shot will miss you.Be warned, however. If your name card says "henchman"（帮凶）and you are part of a group of plain-looking people trying' to catch a handsome individual,a single shot will kill you.TV even teaches us about TV.Whenever anyone turns on a TV,it shows a news flash about someone they know. They then turn the box off immediately after that news item.What's the main idea of this passage?A:Life skills can be learned from TV.B:TV plays an important role in society.C:Watching TV makes people more creative.D:What happens in TV is very different from reality.

"If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a
hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that
newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from
television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most
people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to
generation. The nature of what is news may change. What
basically makes news is what affects our lives-the big political stories, the
coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the
same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s
already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因)
engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific
explanations of why we feel as we do-as we develop a better understanding of how
the brain operates and what our feelings really are. It’s quite
possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted (传送)
electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m
pretty sure that how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to
choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you
want to read-sports and international news, etc. I think
people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different
media (媒体). They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that
television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on
the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the
air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just
on a screen.What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself
A、Sports and international news.B、A menu of important news.C、The most important news.D、What you are interested in.

问答题Modern means of transportation, telecommunication and mass media have shortened the geographical distance of the world. The international community appears to be no more than a global village, in which people of different nations engage themselves in cultural exchange, while seeking common development in harmonious and respectful relationship. I think different cultures should learn from each other’s strengths to offset their own weaknesses. However, we also have to understand that cultural exchange is by no means a process of losing one’s own culture to a foreign one, but a process of enriching each other’s national cultures. Of course, the culture of a nation must withhold its own distinctive national characteristics in its extensive exchange with other cultures, and make contributions to the development of human civilization.
