　　[12:24.21]Section C
　　[12:26.30]Directions: This section is to test your ability
　　[12:32.08]to comprehend short passages.
　　[12:35.15]You will hear a recorded passage.
　　[12:38.60]After that you will hear five questions.
　　[12:42.96]Both the passage and the questions will be read two times.
　　[12:48.69]When you hear a question,
　　[12:51.61]you should complete the answer to it
　　[12:54.87]with a word or a short phrase (in no more than 3 words).
　　[13:01.50]The questions and incomplete answers
　　[13:05.82]are printed in your test paper.
　　[13:08.57]You should write your answers
　　[13:11.71]on the Answer Sheet correspondingly.
　　[13:14.89]Now listen to the passage.
　　[13:19.58]It's estimated that
　　[13:22.83]one-third of the countries of the world are very rich,
　　[13:27.15]and two thirds are very poor.
　　[13:29.75]People in the richer countries don't understand
　　[13:33.68]the great differences between them
　　[13:35.78]and those in the poorer countries.
　　[13:38.07]A very simple example is that
　　[13:42.24]a dog or a cat in North America is better
　　[13:45.95]than a child in the poorer countries.
　　[13:48.99]A fisherman in South America may catch the fish
　　[13:54.97]which is made into pet food while the children in poor countries
　　[13:59.70]are not getting enough to eat for their bodies to grow properly.
　　[14:04.19]Although a lot of the world's natural resources
　　[14:09.06]come from these poorer countries,
　　[14:10.99]it's the richer countries that decide what kind of price
　　[14:15.10]they are ready to pay for these resources.
　　[14:18.13]And the prices the richer countries get from their exports,
　　[14:22.75]however, are always rising.
　　[14:25.04]So they are getting richer and richer,
　　[14:29.31]and the poorer countries are getting poorer.
　　[14:32.80]11. What percentage do the poor countries account for in the world?
　　[14:52.59]12. What may the fish the fisherman catches be made into?
　　[15:10.61]13. Where do a lot of the world's resources come from?
　　[15:28.09]14. Usually who decides the prices of natural resources?
　　[15:46.08]15. What price do the richer countries always raise?
　　[16:03.23]Now listen again.
　　[16:06.42]It's estimated that
　　[16:09.31]one-third of the countries of the world are very rich,
　　[16:13.65]and two thirds are very poor.
　　[16:16.29]People in the richer countries don't understand
　　[16:20.23]the great differences between them
　　[16:22.27]and those in the poorer countries.
　　[16:24.72]A very simple example is that
　　[16:28.81]a dog or a cat in North America is better
　　[16:32.71]than a child in the poorer countries.
　　[16:35.70]A fisherman in South America may catch the fish
　　[16:41.44]which is made into pet food while the children in poor countries
　　[16:46.26]are not getting enough to eat for their bodies to grow properly.
　　[16:50.75]Although a lot of the world's natural resources
　　[16:55.04]come from these poorer countries,
　　[16:57.08]it's the richer countries that decide what kind of price
　　[17:01.31]they are ready to pay for these resources.
　　[17:04.00]And the prices the richer countries get from their exports,
　　[17:09.01]however, are always rising.
　　[17:11.45]So they are getting richer and richer,
　　[17:15.44]and the poorer countries are getting poorer.
　　[17:18.88]11. What percentage do the poor countries account for in the world?
　　[17:37.64]12. What may the fish the fisherman catches be made into?
　　[17:55.41]13. Where do a lot of the world's resources come from?
　　[18:13.12]14. Usually who decides the prices of natural resources?
　　[18:30.69]15. What price do the richer countries always raise?
　　[18:48.01]This is the end of Listening Comprehension.
