Tape length: 30 minutes per side. Weight:240g.

2）Sony M9 $49.95

 4）Imperial OEM. MC $29.95

    Cheap and simple compared with the rest, but recording was good as long as there was no background noise. Use only its own make of cassette. No light to show it is on; no fast forward button and the record button makes a loud noise.

China news, Beijing, Feb. 9 – Housing price in China has always aroused heated discussions among property developers and ordinary Chinese. To many property developers and local government officials, housing price in China is still low compared with many developed countries. However, the average housing price in the United States is only 8,000 yuan per square meter, while in China, it is even higher than in the United States. This shows that there are some bubbles(泡沫) in Chinese real estate (房地產(chǎn)) market, the International Finance News reported.

       Although the average price of residential houses in the United States, after converted to Renminbi, is about 8,000 yuan per square meter, the houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses. If US property developers sell their houses according to the building area, then the housing price will be even lower than 8,000 yuan per square meter. In most big Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, houses are sold at a price even higher than those in the US.

       The high housing sales price in large cities in China proves that Chinese real estate market does have some bubbles. Moreover, Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities. Furthermore, it should be noted that American people’s average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people. How can the Chinese afford to buy a house which is even more expensive than that sold in US?

       At the beginning of 2007, Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public. Now in order to reduce the high housing prices, the government can regulate (控制) the real estate market by raising tax on property industry and controlling the release of loans and lands to property developers. At the same time, the government should allow people to build more houses through various fund-raising channels, such as funds collected from buyers or raised by working units. By applying these multiple means, it is expected that the high housing prices can be lowered.

1．Which of the following does NOT support the idea that the average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States?

       A．Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities.

       B．American people’s average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese  people.

       C．The houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property  developers do when they sell their houses.

       D．There are more people who need houses in China than in the United States.

2．What is the main idea of this passage?

       A．The Chinese government should do something to control the housing price.

       B．There are some bubbles in Chinese real estate market.

       C．The average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States.

       D．The Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public.

3．How many measures are mentioned in the last paragraph in order to reduce the high housing prices?

       A．Four B．Three       C．Five  D．Two
