听力原文: In Hollywood, everybody wants to be rich, famous and beautiful. Nobody wants to be old, unknown and poor. For Hollywood kids, life can be difficult, because they grow up in such an unreal atmosphere. Their parents are ambitious and the children are part of the parents' ambitions. Parents pay for wasteful grand parties, expensive cars and designer clothes.
When every dream can come true, kids don't learn the value of anything because they have everything. A thirteen-year-old boy, Trent Maguire, has a driver, credit cards and unlimited cash to do what he wants when he wants to. "One day, I'll earn more than my dad!" he boasts. Parents buy care and attention for the children because they have no time to give it themselves. Amanda's mother employs a personal trainer, a bodyguard, a singing coach and a counselor to look after all her fifteen-year-old daughter's needs.
Often there is no parent at home most days, so children decide whether to make their own meals or go out to restaurants, when to watch television or do homework. They organize their own social lives. They play no childhood games. They become adults before they're ready. Hollywood has always been the city of dreams. The kids there live unreal lives where money, beauty and pleasure are the only gods. Will children around the world soon start to think the same? Or do they already?
Questions:
Why is life said to be difficult for Hollywood kids?
What does the speaker say about Trent Maguire, a thirteen-year-old boy?
Why does Amanda's mother employ other people to look after her needs?
What will probably have negative effects on the lives of Hollywood kids?

Subject: Overstock
Date: June 24,8:42 p.m.
Amanda,
1 just finished stocking the order, and it looks as if we have a small problem. Whoever ordered must have punched in the wrong amount, because we have too many of the Pretty Baby Sun Lotion. I asked Linda about it, and she didn't know anything.
There are 10 cases of this product, so someone must have ordered 200 instead of 20.I checked the invoice, and we were billed correctly. 1 even called the warehouse to make sure they didn't make the mistake, and the order was for 200.
1 wasn't sure what to do, so I just stocked the shelves and put the rest in our back stock. I was thinking we could make some sort of promotion for sun lotion since summer just started.
If you want, I can make a display tomorrow morning.
Luis

听力原文:F Amanda Sharpe,
M Oh hi, Mandy. I just wanted to ask how the training day went. I'm sorry I couldn't be there.
F Hi, Jim. Yes, we missed you. Well, it was good overall. There was a rather familiar presentation of theory, and then some very informative' case studies to discuss. We also spent time reviewing important staffing issues, and there were some tips given on teamwork that we can definitely put into practice.
M Sounds excellent.
F Yes, although the afternoon session seemed to go on and on. I found it hard to concentrate, but when I looked at the handout afterwards for the main points, it was very brief, and didn't say much. Anyway, there's another one next month. I've suggested the training manager consults with the HR supervisor in setting it up, to make sure it's all relevant. I hope you'll be able to make it.
M Yes, I'll be free for that one.
