听力原文： My friend, Vernon Davies, kept birds. One day he phoned and told me he was going away for a week. He asked me to feed the birds for him and said that he would leave the key to his front door in my mailbox.
Unfortunately, I forgot all about the birds until the night before Vernon was going to return. What was worse, it was already dark when I arrived at his house. I soon found the key Vernon gave me could not unlock either the front or the back door. I was getting desperate. I kept thinking of what Vernon would say when he came back.
I was just going to give up when I noticed that one bedroom window was slightly open. I found a barrel and pushed it under the window. As the barrel was very heavy, I made a lot of noise. But in the end, I managed to climb up and open the window.
I actually had one leg inside the bedroom when I suddenly realized that someone was shining a torch up at me. I looked down and saw a policeman and an old lady, one of Vernon's neighbors. "What are you doing up there？" said the policeman. Feeling like a complete fool, I replied, "I was just going to feed Mr. Davies's birds."

We just didn't attract as many teams as we thought we would, and I thought the whole thing lacked any excitement as a result. You know, of course, that the point was to raise some money to pay for new trees in the school grounds？ Well, we achieved that, and my kids thought the whole afternoon was great, so I guess it was OK.

听力原文：W: Hi, Rob, you know that class you missed yesterday？
M: Yes, but I was seriously iii.
W: I'm sorry to hear that. You (:an have my notes.
M: Thanks. I appreciate that.
W: So how are you feeling？
M: Much better now that I began taking an antibiotic. Doctor Lee gave me one, and it really helps. You know what amazes me is that how the human beings managed to survive before antibiotics.
W: I agree. When my father was a young boy in the 1940's, he got blood poisoning and would have died. But his doctor had heard of this new drug called penicillin.
M: Wow, he was really lucky. And now we have lots of antibiotics that kill bacteria.
W: Well, penicillin kills bacteria, but not all antibiotics do. Some are just slowing the bacteria down until our normal immune defenses can finish the job.
M: Wow! How do you know all these？
W: My mother used to look up all our medicines. There are lots of books around. It's interesting. What antibiotics are you taking？
M: I don't remember. It's on the bottle. I think I'll take a new look at the label and drop by the library to see if they have reference books on medicines. See you in the lab tomorrow.
(23)
A．The man's illness.
B．The effect of antibiotics.
C．The hobby of the woman's mother.

M: Oh, hardly, but we had a good time just the same. We managed to stop at the old Ghost Town near Virginia City. That's what Jimmy was all excited about.
W: Did you go to Denver like your wife wanted to？
M: Yes, we stayed with her cousin for two days. We had to pass up the Grand Canyon though, because Jimmy got sick from eating too many grapes.
W: How about the stop at Indian Falls？ Did you have any time for that？
M: Yes, but we almost didn't. We left Denver on Highway 14 when we should have taken Highway 90. When we realized it, it was almost dark. Still we got there in time to take a few pictures.

M: Well, we went through Phoenix, Arizona. We all liked that. But we had some trouble with the car there. We had to stay an extra day because of that.

I was able to get in some extra fishing because of the delay. I went out with the man who was staying in the hotel we were at.

With twins, I did not have a spare hand to write with.
Before my twins were born, my days were long but I had nothing to write about. After the twins' birth I did have something to write about, but I found myself facing not a pen or paper but milk bottles.
During some nights, friends would visit. They would leave at 11 pm, heading for bed, and for us the night was only just beginning. With twins, there was really no night. Each feeding lasted a long time. At 1:00 am, each of them would begin crying with hunger. At 4:00 am, when I finally put them down, I headed for the kitchen and lighted a cigarette. I hadn't smoked for almost a year, but I felt I'd never needed it more. I was so sleepy and so tired that I didn't care.
Two years have passed since then and we've managed to live through it all. My days are still very full and even now there isn't one evening when I put the twins down for the night that I don't breathe a sigh of relief. At last a little time for myself.
