    By Jerilyn Watson Broadcast: February 14, 2010.
    Welcome to THIS IS AMERICA, in VOA Special English. I’m Steve Ember. And I’m Faith Lapidus. February fourteenth is Valentine’s Day. So this is a good time to play some love songs as we explore the subject of dating.
    VOICE ONE: Valentine’s Day is a special time for love. Millions of people will receive flowers, chocolate or some other gifts. Others might get just a phone call or an electronic message from someone they care about. Still others would be happy just to have someone special in their life on Valentine’s Day.
    VOICE TWO: Traditionally, there are many ways for people to meet. Some meet at work. Others meet by chance. Still others look for help from services that bring people together. Friends and family members might offer to help. They might plan a blind date. This is a meeting between two people who have never seen each other before. A lot of people try to improve their chances by looking in places where people with similar interests go, such as a place of religion, a bookstore, health club and sports team where men and women play together.
    VOICE THREE: Internet dating services had been growing sharply through the end of 2009. But people do no always tell the truth about themselves online. And they do not exactly tell about their age, for example, they might offer an old picture instead. People who meet through computer services may not have to give their full name or e-mail address at first. Relationships that begin over the Internet do sometimes lead to marriage. Yet there is a risk anytime strangers meet. It could be a danger, or simply an unpleasant surprise. A young woman in Washington D.C was angry after seeing a date she met over the Internet. In his picture , he looked twenty-five or thirty years old. In reality, she said, he was old enough to be her father.
    72. The topic of the VOA broadcast program is probably________.
    A. Valentine’s Day                     B. how to make friends in daily life.
    C. dating between men and women       D. how to keep your marriage.
    73. In VOICE TWO, which of the following ways of dating is NOT mentioned by the speaker in the text?
    A. Meeting by chance or at work    
    B. Meeting with the help of media
    C. Meeting with the help of the services 
    D. Meeting with the help of friends and family
    74.The speaker think Internet dating may be a risk, danger, or simply unpleasant surprise because___________.
    A. people can’t know each other’s real name
    B. people can’t know each other’s address
    C. the computer don’t give their full name or e-mail address at first
    D. people don’t always tell the truth about themselves online.
    75.From the text, we can infer that the speaker is likely to _______dating online.
    A. appreciate         B. hate           C. suggest        D. hold a negative attitude

    Some of Man's closest relatives in the animal kingdom are under serious threat because of human activity, according to a recently published report.
    According to the document, almost one in three of all apes and monkeys - that is non-human primate species (灵长类动物) are now considered to be in danger of dying out and disappearing from our planet, if action is not taken soon.
    The report, which was produced for the World Conservation Union (WCU), states that 114 of the world's 394 primate species could be lost forever, and the main reason they are threatened is the continuing destruction of forests where most of these animals live. In addition, illegal wildlife trade, climate change and commercial hunting for meat are also pressuring existing primate populations.
    What's more, the problem is getting more serious. The number of species on the organization’s Red List - listing those primate species most threatened and in very serious danger of dying out - has increased by 3 to 25 since 2005.
    Russell Mittermeier, the chief researcher of the WCU report, said, "You could fit all the surviving members of these 25 species in a single football stadium. So the problem is obviously urgent."
    The scientists, who drew up the Red List, believe that the situation is now so bad that if action is not taken immediately, it will result in primate species becoming extinct - something which has not happened in over a century.
    The loss of habitat caused by the clearing of forests for wood, farmland and fuel continues to be the main reason for the declining number of primates, according to the report, and the problem was most severe in Asia.
    The loss of forest trees is also responsible for approximately 20 percent of all greenhouse gases - more than all the cars, trucks, trains and aeroplanes in the world combined.
    Mr. Mittermeier added, "By preserving the world's remaining forests, we save primates and protect other animals while preventing more pollution from entering the atmosphere to warm the climate."
    46．What is the main subject of the report discussed in the text?
    A．Climate change.         B．Loss of animal habitat.
    C．Endangered animals.       D．Animal protection.
    47．According to the text, when did an ape or monkey species last die out?
    A．In 1908．                B．In 2005.
    C．Over a hundred years ago.     D．Almost a hundred years ago.
    48．How many animals were on the Red List in 2005?
    A．19． B．22． C．25． D．28.
    49．The spokesman refers to 'a football stadium' in paragraph 5 to stress that ______.
    A．the animals enjoy playing sports
    B．there are not many of these animals left
    C．these animals should be placed there for protection
    D．the report was announced there
    50．What is the main cause of the greenhouse gas problem according to the text?
    A．Aeroplanes.           B．Road vehicles.   
    C．Factory pollution.        D．Loss of trees.
