Do you want to know ____?

A．what does it need	B．what it needs
C．it needs it need	D．what need

 

You know what it' s like. You’ ve just arrived in Washington D. C. after a long journey and all you really want to do is lie down and relax in your hotel room. But first you have to make a few quick notes for tomorrow's meeting, check your e-mails, and perhaps print out a few- things. And you need to make a few local telephone calls, and one call to your family.
And what do you usually get? Your desk is just about big enough for a cup of coffee, and there's no desk lamp~ the stationary(办公用品) is only several pieces of paper and the only pen there doesn't work at all. If you want to print something, you have to go to the Reception(前台),and when you try to use your cell phone, you find that it won't work in the U. S. A.
Well, Harmony Hotel is different. Just tell us ahead of time what you're going to need, and we'll make sure that it's waiting for you when you arrive. There will be a printer in your room if you want one, and a cell phone that really works. All you have to pay for is the calls you make.
We can also provide a room for business meetings, even a secretary to take notes. All we ask is a few days' notice.
All of our rooms are of the same high standard and we promise not to increase prices in the next twelve months. But book now, because many people are already calling to book rooms, and we'd hate to disappoint you.
Harmony--the hotel you've always wanted, but never been able to find before.

Here are some tips (建议)on listening．We hope it can help you in one way or other．

Relax yourself．

Before you start to listen to something, you need to relax．Don't get nervous or excited．This will help you with your listening．

Listen carefully to the first sentence．

The first sentence tells a lot about the whole passage．For example, if, at the very beginning, you hear "Many shops in many parts of China have decided to take away all kinds of Japanese goods off their shelves, but some people say it's not a good idea．Our reporter says…", you know you will hear a piece of news, not a children's story, or a science report．

Think when you're listening．

When you're listening, try to do some thinking．For example, you can think of the following questions :

What happened? When, where, and how? What was the result and what does the speaker want to tell us?

This way, you may understand the passage better．

Listen for important facts．

It's important for you to remember some important facts．For example, if the passage is a science report, you should try to remember its findings, and how the scientists got their results．

Don't think about one or two words for too long．

You may hear some words that you don't know, but don't spend too much time on them．Very often, you'll find out what they mean later when you go on with the listening．But you can remember some words or sentences that you think are important, and you can use them when you're answering the questions．

1．This whole passage is mainly about                  ．

Many people like to travel (旅行) by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport（机场）is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off (起飞) and it is often late. You can’t open the window. You can’t choose（选择）the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe (安全的). Railway stations（火车站） are usually in cities. When you can’t catch a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey (旅行) when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
