Satellite _imagery_ shows Milan to be one of the most polluted cities in Europe. An _estimated _ 120,000 vehicles will be affected by the move, according to the major daily newspaper in the city. The most polluting vehicles have been banned from driving through the city center since Thursday. But on Sunday, there _was supposed to _ be no traffic between 8:00 and 18:00. The ban is imposed when pollution exceeds 50 micrograms of particulates per cubic meter of air over 12 days. The last time the full ban was in force was in February.

A survey showed that American women are more concerned about losing weight than they are about _suffering from _ cancer, heart disease or diabetes. More than half of the 3,000 women questioned in the _poll _ by Meredith Corporation and NBC Universal were worried about diet and weight, _compared to _ 23 percent who were concerned about cancer and 20 percent who were _anxious _ about their cardiovascular health. The women were asked to _identify_ the health issues they were concerned about from a list of 20 problems. The survey showed many women thought they should be _slimmer _, with more than 80 percent saying they were overweight. But just 43 percent said they were exercising at least three times a week, and 11 percent played team and individual sports. And less than two-thirds of all women said they get an annual physical. “These findings should be a wake-up call to American women everywhere to make their yearly _checkup _ without fail and make their own personal health a top _ priority _,” said Diane Salvatore, editor in chief of Ladies Home Journal, which is published by Meredith Corp. While the majority of women said they were overweight, 68 percent said they were _satisfied with_ their identity and development as an individual. But 40 percent said it was wrong for a man to tell a woman she was overweight. To improve their health, 26 percent of women said they took natural herbs and _supplements, while 25 percent bought or adopted a pet, according to the survey. Four percent visited a spiritual or religious leader and one percent went to a hypnotist.Listening Comprehension（3）Section ADirections: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations; one or more questions will be asked about what was said.
