听力原文：W: Hi, Peter.
M: Hi, Laura.
W: How was your final？
M: Absolutely no idea. Anyway, it's just wonderful to have finished the exam.
W: Yeah, to sleep in every morning.
M: Well, I've got a lot to do before I leave for Chicago. I've got a lot of things I can't take back with me and I don't know what to do with them. I am wondering if I can sell them to someone before going back to Chicago. Perhaps you could give me some advice.
W: Well, it depends on what sort of things they are.
M: There are quite a lot. I have a computer which is second-hand and not worth much. (19)What I really want to get rid of is the furniture, the fridge and other kitchen stuff. Oh, there are some clothes and books as well.
W: I see. Well, there are several alternatives. (20)First of all, you could put up notices around the university about the books--you know on the notice boards in the student union building, and anywhere the second and third year students will see them. People are always keen to buy cheap textbooks.
M: Then what should I say on the notices？
W: Just put the titles, authors and prices you want. Don't forget to put your phone number.
M: That's a good idea. What about the furniture？
W: You could try the same thing, but usually Students are away all summer so they don't want to buy furniture now. Another place to try might be a secondhand shop. Someone from the shop will usually come around and give you a free quote, and then you can decide. (21)But normally you won't get much money for that sort of stuff.
(23)
A．Tennis sets.
B．Computer and TV set.
C．Bookcase and book shelf.
D．Refrigerator and kitchen stuff.

听力原文：M: Hi, Linda.
W: Hi, James. What are you doing in the mall？ I thought you said you avoid these places.
M: Oh, I still do, but it's my roommate's birthday tomorrow and I am looking around to get him a present. He's not exactly the easiest person to find a present for.
W: Have you had any ideas of what to get？
M: Not really. I want to get him something he will be able to use instead of something he'lI just put into the closet.
W: That's true. I know often I get something from somebody I hardly ever use. And they stay in the closet or garage before they get thrown away.
M: I know. That's the problem. That's why I hate buying gifts for people because it can never be perfect.
W: Perhaps you are trying too hard to get something very impressive or decorative. I always think a gift should be practical.
M: Oh, I know. His bag is almost wrecked. Maybe I should get him a new one instead.
W: It sounds like a good gift.
M: Gosh, now I am wondering which color I should pick. He is really picky about the color.
W: That's not difficult. What was the last color he chose？ He obviously chose it for a reason.
(1)
A．In a shopping mall.
B．In the dormitory.
C．In the office.

听力原文：W: Hi! Did you watch that documentary on TV last night？
M: No, I was in a meeting, and unable to go home early. What was it about？
W: It was about insects.
M: Insects？
W: Yes. Do you know？ They are the most successful creatures on the earth.
M: What, more successful than humans？
W: Yeah. Because they were around long before people were, and there are far more insects than there are humans. What’s more, they are reproducing all the time.
M: Well, I suppose that’s true.
W: And they are incredibly adaptable.
M: In what way？
W: Well, take mosquitoes for example. You know, the things that spread the disease. What troubles us is that every time we try to wipe out the mosquitoes with some new insecticide, they change their body chemistry.
M: Haven’t they just brought out a new medicine to fight the disease？
W: Yes, they have. But I bet that within five years they’ll be looking for a new one! The mosquitoes will simply adapt again!
M: I think it keeps scientists employed!
W: I guess so.
(23)
A．He was watching the documentary on TV.

W: Hi, John. Oh not so had. Pretty good in fact.
M: Is that what you think？ I mean, do you like living on campus？
W: Yeah, I enjoy living here because there' s so many people around and it' s easy to make friends. Wliat about you？ Have you ever lived in a dorm before？
M: No, this is the first time.
W: I think you'll find it quite convenient. The library, labs, sports center and other facilities are fight on campus.
M: That' s true. The atmosphere here is different from the outside. But I guess living in town has its advantages too, like being close to the shopping center. You know, our university is so far from downtown.
W: But the commuting to classes... I mean, you would have to get up so early to get to classes on time. And then going home would be so much time.
M: Yeah, but the food here...it seems it's the same thing in the cafeteria every day.
W: Well, I think the food here is OK, and if you want a change, you can eat out once in a while.
M: True.

听力原文：M: Hi, Sue. Where have you been？
W: Oh. Hi, Dan. I was just at the library. I have to hand in my biology paper tomorrow.
M: Tomorrow？ Oh, no. I thought it wasn't due till Monday.
W: Oh. Don't worry. It is due Monday. But I'm going away for the weekend and won't be back till Monday night.
M: Oh, where are you going？
W: California. We're having a family reunion. It's my grandmother's ninetieth birthday. So all the cousins and aunts and uncles are going. She planned the whole thing herself.
M: Wow. That's great. How many people will be there？
W: Around sixty. My family is big and spread out but we're pretty dose. So have you started working on your biology paper？
M: Yeah. I'm doing it on bees and how they're able to recognize whether another bee is related to them.
W: How can they tell？
M: They use their sense of smell. The honey bees guard their nests this way. If another bee approaches the nest, the guard determines if the new bee is familiar. If it is, it's allowed to enter.
W: Interesting. Can other insects do this？ Well, the paper wasps can. Each wasp nest has a special combination of plant fibers and se the wasps that live there have a unique smell. Those two are the only kinds I've read about so far.
M: Well, you've still got time. It sounds like that the bees are picky about who comes to their family reunion.
(20)
A．They' re classmates.
B．They' re roommates.
C．They' re cousins.
D．They' re lab partners.

"HI there． How's it going7"
"Oh, fine． Fine． How about this weather, huh？"
"Well, I guess we can always use the rain．"
What's that？ This story？ Oh, just a little look at small talk． You know; those seemingly meaningless conversations you have dozens of times a day． Maybe you're waiting for the elevator． Or in a line at the bank． It all seems pretty trivial． Idle chatter about traffic doesn't do much more than fill the air with empty words that are quickly forgotten． But you should know that small talk actually has a big place in our lives．
Pat Oliver, assistant professor on arts, says that, "Left unchecked, small talk can be an invasion． It's so powerful． It does something to you．" "Every morning after spending an hour and a half on the freeway I start the day with small talk with my secretary," Oliver says, "If I don't make small connection with another person, I can't work．"
What causes it？ As a rule, you're either trying to force something into your life, or you're using conversation as an invisible force field to keep them out． You can be wanting to connect with another person, and small talk is your introduction to more meaningful conversation．
The way people use small talk is usually determined by where they happen to be at the time． Take the elevator, for instance． Now there's prime territory． Nobody knows anyone and there's no reason no start a conversation, but invariably, someone does． Making conversation in such peaceful social settings, according to oliver, "can confirm your territory． It's a way of feeling like and accepted．"
The topics of small talk don't matter． In fact, you don't want anything more taxing than the weather or tile traffic． It's non-threatening talk in a threatening situation． However, the rules change quickly when you're with lots of people doing lots of talking．
Let's say you're at a party． Now it's time to use small talk as a way of making others feel more comfortable around you, so you don't look silly standing by the food table alone all night．
"Small talk", as interpreted by the author,______．
A．has no real function in communication at all
B．is usually meaningless and therefore useless
C．is not as idle as it may seem to be
D．is restricted to certain topics only

听力原文：M: Hi, Jerry.
W: Hello, Jack. How are you？
M: I'm fine. Where are you heading？
W: Oh, I'm on my way home from work.
M: I didn't know you had a job.
W: Yeah, I work part time at a supermarket.
M: What do you do there？

W: I'd like doing that. It must be nice to work outdoors.
