听力原文:There are so many things going on in our modern lives, and change happens so quic

听力原文: There are so many things going on in our modern lives, and change happens so quickly. It is hard to imagine a time when things were slower and you could really see a new thing come into your life and to remember the day or the year when those things happened. I know that today, for example, there, are many instances of second and third generations of things, such as televisions or radios, when some of us were not even aware that there was a first generation.

A friend of mine was born at the end of the last century, and talking to her, I really got a sense of her being a living history book, of being able to talk about the changes in her own life and to know that these changes were really the changes that society was going through.

She gets really excited, for example, when she talks about the first time she ever saw a camera, and even more excited when she saw herself in the picture that the photographer took. She lived in a small town, and at the time that she was very young, there were no cars or trains in her town at all. As she grew up, cars and trains came in, and she remembers her first ride with a real sense of amazement that any one count move so fast.

(30)

A.It's amazing that anyone could move so fast.

B.Televisions mark the beginning of modem life.

C.Modern life is changing very fast.

D.It's hard to remember the past.

听力原文:WA Sam, when is this week's production meeting?

MA It's at ten o'clock in the Green Willow Room on the second floor. The same place as last week.

WA Right, but last week it was at eleven o'clock on a Tuesday. This week it's ten o'clock on a Wednesday. It would be easier if it was the same day and time every week.

MA I agree. But there's been so much going on over the last month, there's always been a schedule conflict for someone who is crucial to the meeting. Once we get over this busy period I'll set up a fixed recurring meeting schedule.

What did the woman ask Sam about?

A.The time of a meeting

B.The purpose of a meeting

C.The location of a meeting

D.The minutes from a meeting

听力原文:WB Where is everybody today? It's really quiet in here.

MA Fridays in July and August tend to be like this. Lots of people taking vacation days or half-days to get out of the heat of the city. On top of that, there's some kind of promotional event being hosted by one of our vendors in the cafeteria.

WB Right. Marge and Henry just told me that they were on their way over there. But still, it's almost too quiet. In a way it helps you concentrate on your work, but at the same time, it's so quiet it feels odd — like being here on a Saturday—and that doesn't help me concentrate!

MA I know what you mean. Why don't we stop by the cafeteria ourselves to see what's going on?

What does the woman comment on?

A.How hot the city is

B.How loud the office is

C.How tired the man looks

D.How empty the office is

听力原文:Woman: All right, now. Before you step up to the tee, take one practice swing.

Man: I know. And keep my eye on the ball. I remember everything you've told me.

Woman: Good. And don't throw your club. That won't help matters at all. If you miss the ball, just stay calm and try again. You don't want to lose your concentration, so it's really important to stay calm.

Man: All right, all right. I get it. Will you be quiet now so I can try hitting the ball?

Where are the speakers?

A.At a tea party.

B.At a night club.

C.At a golf course.

D.At a bowling alley.

ll me, how long has your company been in business?

MA From nineteen ninety-one until two-thousand-one, we... I should say I... operated as a sole proprietorship. I hired subcontractors as needed, but did most of the work myself. I formed a corporation in two-thousand-two, due to all the design work I was getting.

WB How many employees do you currently have?

MA We work with a group of regular subcontractors— architects, interior designers, contractors, and so on—who get together on a project-by-project basis. We find this flexibility allows us to address the specific demands of each project, regardless of its complexity or scope.

In which field does the man work?

A.Real estate

B.Architecture

C.Graphic design

D.Book publishing

听力原文:W: No luck then, John?

M: I'm afraid not, ma' am. Not yet, anyhow. We're still checking on stolen ears.

W: Mm.

M: Where do you think he'll head for, ma' am?

W: Well, he definitely won' t try to leave the country yet. He may try to get a passport, and he'll certainly need clothes and money. He'll probably get in touch with Cornfield for those, so I expect he'll make for Birmingham.

M: Right. I'll put some men on the house.

W: Yes, do that. Mind you, I doubt if he'll show up there in person. Hammond' s no fool, you know. I should think he'll probably use a telephone.

M: What about his wife?

W: Mm. I shouldn' t think he'll go anywhere near her--though he might get her to join him after he's left the country. And when he does leave, he probably won't use a major airport, either. So you' d better notify the coastguard, and keep an eye on the private airfields.

M: Right, ma' am. I'd better get his description circulated.

W: Yes. He may change his appearance, of course. And John--be careful. He could be armed. And if I know Hammond, he certainly won' t give himself up without a fight.

(23)

A.The country.

B.Another country.

C.Cornfield.

听力原文:W: Sit down please, Mr. Johnson.

M: Nice to meet you, ma'am.

W: I have read your letter here. You seem to have done very well in school. Can you tell me something about your schoolwork?

M: As you can see, my strongest subjects were art subjects. My best subject was history, and my second best was geography. However, my favorite subject was math, and the results 1 got in the math paper were quite reasonable.

W: That' s hue. Now, can you tell me why you think these subjects will help you in this job?

M: Well, ma' am, I understand that you manufacture computers, prepare software, and advise diets on how to use them. Is that right?

W: What's right.

M: And I've been told that working with computers needs a logical mind rather than great skills in mathematics. That' s especially true, I believe, when it comes to writing programs. So I think my results show that I have some ability in logic and in mathematics as well.

W: So, you would like to write material for computers, would you?

M: Yes, ma'am. That's what interests me most about computers, writing programs. But I think the computer industry itself is still expanding enormously. I' m sure that career prospects in the industry would be very good.

W: I see. Well, thank you. I've enjoyed our talk. We'll be writing to you.

听力原文:Lin: Excuse me. May I look at that blouse?

Salesman: Certainly!

Lin: (Examining it) Mmm!

Salesman: I can see that you have very good taste, ma'am! It really suits you!

Lin: Yes, but it's not for me. It's for a friend. She asked me to buy one for her. What are you

asking for this?

Salesman: Well, madam, you're very lucky because we have a special offer on, for this week only! So that blouse is normally $60.00, but we are offering a 10% discount.

Lin: Oh dear! That's still more than $50.00, and she asked me to spend only 40.

Salesman: I see. Well, ma'am, but just look at the quality of the silk!

Lin: It's very nice, but I think your prices generally seem very high. I can get a blouse like this at half the price through the Internet!

Salesman: But not of this quality, madam!

Lin: I tell you what, I'm in a bit of a hurry, so why don't we split the difference? You're asking for $54.00, and my friend's price is 40. Let's settle on 47!

Salesman: 47? At that price I'm losing money! Look, I like you. I'd like to help you. So let's call it 50!

Lin: 50? Well...Oh look. There's a button missing!

Salesman:(Checking) Are you sure? Okay! Let's make it 48!

听力原文: In America, where labor costs are so high, "do it yourself " is a way of life. Many people repair their own cars, build their own garages, and even rebuild their own houses, Soon many of them will also be writing their own books. In Hollywood there is a company that publishes children's book with the help of computers. Although other book companies also publish that way, this company is not like the others. It allows the reader to become the leading character in the stories with the help of computers, Here is how they do it. Let us suppose the child is named Henry. He lives in New York, and has a god named Jody. The computer uses this information to make up a story with pictures.. The story' is then printed up. A child who receives such a book might say, "This book is about me." So the company calls itself the "Me-Books Publishing Company".

Children like the Me-Books because they like to see in print their own names and the names of their friends and their pets. But more important, in this way, readers are much more interested in reading the stories. Me-Books are helping a child to learn how to read.

(30)

A.They can do better than others.

B.It is expensive to hire labor.

C.They do not like to be helped.

D.They do not trust others.
