Conversation Two
W: I'm so worried about Mark these days. Ever since he moved into his apartment, he has been losing weight. He really doesn't look well at all.
M: He should try to gain some weight. He is probably not eating enough.
W: Well, anyway, how is Tim these days？
M: Tim？ Oh, Tim has been worried, too. He is really getting much too fat. He needs to lose about 75 pounds now.
W: That's a lot of weight to lose. What does Tim eat？
M: I really don't know. But I am sure he is eating too much cake and candy.
W: Well, did I tell you Mark doesn't eat any meat now？ He only eats vegetables and fruit.
M : That's probably why he is so thin. Does he smoke？
W: Does he smoke？ About two packs of cigarettes a day. That's my son, a smoking vegetarian.
M: En, if he stops smoking, he would gain weight. I know he would. Tim put on a lot of weight when he stopped smoking.
W : Does Tim play any sports？
M: Play sports？ Oh, my! I keep telling him, "Tim, dear, you really need to get some exercise." And you know what he does？ He just gets angry.
W: I know Mark doesn't take exercise, either.
M: Did you tell him？
W: Of course, but you know what it is like being a mother of a 13-year-old boy. They just don't think they need your advice anymore. I wish Mark could find a nice girlfriend to relax and have fun with. I heard Tim has a girlfriend at last. That's wonderful.

A.Since he found a girlfriend.
B.Since he took to heavy smoking

W: Good. We'll be meeting at the cafeteria for dinner at six o'clock on Saturday night, and then we'll go on to the game together.

The music department is sponsoring a concert then, and I'd really like to hear that concert. But there's also a play being presented by the drama department that I really wanted to see.

Kelley's students have been writing to celebrities from across the nation asking for a photo and a few words of advice. "It really takes a lot of time and money," Kelley said. First, Kelley and his students make a list of all the celebrities to whom they want to write. Once a student picks a star, Kelley looks them up in his book of addresses to see if he can write to that person.
Writing to the stars takes a lot of time because he has to personalize each letter, print them out, and address them. In the letter, Kelley asks the celebrity to send his classes a picture with some advice he or she would give to today's youth.
Kelley takes up a collection in all of his classes and asks each student to contribute (捐) ft dollar to pay for the postage. Once Kelley mails off all the letters, the fun really begins. So far he has gotten back about 20 letters and pictures. "The only thing that isn't cool is when the celebrity sends the picture back with no advice on it, which is my entire purpose in doing this," said Kelley. When he gets at least three pictures returned, he lets his classes guess who the three stars are. He keeps score of how many celebrities each class has guessed. Jason Bryant, a student, said, "It's become a contest(竞赛) between the classes to see who can guess the most stars, and it's really fun."
What is the text about？
A．Celebrities sending photos to Kelley.
B．Celebrities giving advice to students.
C．Kelley and his classes writing to celebrities.
D．Kelley inviting celebrities to his classes.

Party Random Thoughts
Last night, pressured by well-intentioned friends, for the first time in months, I came out of writer's seclusion and attended a cocktail party which is another word for a social gathering. So there I was, trapped in a crowded room, people milling(乱转) all around me, each with a drink in hand, chitchatting while the waiters skillfully negotiated their way through the bustle with trays of colorful beverages and fancy hors d'oeuvres (小菜). It was definitely party time! Yet, instead of losing myself to the convivial (欢乐的) surroundings of food, drink and conversations, I found myself retreating back into my head all the way to China where the subject of American sociality is of great interest. In China, many of my students are curious about how Americans party and have a good time. "What do you do？ Sing and dance？ To what kind of music？ What's American party talk？ How do you dress and act at a party？ How about food？ What do you eat？"
Every year without fail, students ask their foreign teachers to dedicate a full class to this fascinating topic. Of course, one would think that a subject as interesting and entertaining as such would make for an excellent lesson plan, a rich source of discussions. But to my surprise, many teachers run into roadblocks (障碍) when generating this particular lesson plan. "Michelle, Michelle! I have to teach a class on American parties. And I only have, hmm, five things to say about it. And that I'll talk about five minutes. What am I supposed to do after that？" They cry. "Well, tell me what those five things are," I ask. "Arrive late, talk, eat, drink and have a blast." They blurt out. It is true that the five steps listed above encompass much of the goings-on at American social gatherings. Of course, during parties for special occasions such as birthdays, holidays, weddings, baby showers, anniversaries, graduations, etc., there are additional ceremonies such as cake cutting, gift opening, dancing, toasting, game-playing, etc. But regardless, the fundamentals of a typical American soiree (社交晚会)are good company, good food and drinks, and good times. Sounds simply, doesn't it？ But if you were to look deeper and think further, you'll realize that there's far more to these steps than meets the eyes. Fashionably Late
It is a major faux pas (social embarrassment) to arrive at a party early or even on time. Therefore, with the exception of the hosts, you never want to be the first person present at a social function. Why？ Because people fear that others may think that they have no life or nothing better to do than waiting for a party to start. Many Americans try to project an image of business which, whether true or not, has a positive correlation with success. So by arriving late, you are saying, "I lead a full life and it's exciting and productive." Therefore, an 8 o'clock party customarily doesn't really start until maybe 9 o'clock as everyone wants to be thought of as a busy and important person with lots to do. In other words, a party is one of those rare occasions where your punctuality can actually hurt you. Strange, isn't it？ Anyhow, remember, be fashionably late.
Small Talk
One way of gauging the success of a party is by the noise meter. The louder the party is, the mom happening it is, and the more fun people are having. Then you stop to wonder, if it's so noisy, how can people really hear each other and have great, engaging conversations？ The truth is, they don't. They engaged in small talk, which is another word for casual, trivial conversations. They chew the fat, shoot the breeze and swap anecdotes about random subjects: work, family, news, weather, hobbies, etc. Because the surrounding noise and activities often sidetrack people, it's difficult to get personal or discuss any one topic at length or in depth. The point is to have fun, not to get serious.
However, keep in mind that since people tend to b

M: Well, when learning a foreign language, I would surround myself in the language, the target language, that I wanted to learn.
W: Surround oneself in the language？ I think it is difficult to do that. Can you explain how you do it？
M: Uh, for example, I would watch a movie in that language, uh, which would help me keep motivated to learn vocabulary and phrases.
W: That sounds interesting.
M: Yeah, you'll have a lot of fun by doing so.
W: I see. A little hit of practice every day is very important to language learning.
M: Yes. Regular practice is also better than practicing a lot in one day. Learning a language well needs patience and perseverance.
W: Then what else did you do to learn a foreign language？
M: Well, I would keep a situational notebook.
W: What is that used for？
M: Ur, for example, in a restaurant, you use a certain phrase over and over again, and so if you can remember just one particular phrase in each setting, then you can immediately speak that language and have more confidence and you get more out of learning the language, I think.
W: Really？ I'll try that. Thank you for your advice.
M: You're welcome.

听力原文：M: Hey, wake up! I see you are not in the consecrated situation, what's up？
W: Oh, hi. I'm still in shock. I just got the green light from admissions and loot to boot.
M: Fantastic! And congratulations to you. What did you get？ It's the fellowship, assistantship, scholarship or something else？
W: They offered me an assistantship, It's better than I'd hoped for. The stipend will cover tuition, room and board. With that I won't have to sponge off my folk. And you know in the last term, for the whole fee, I wasted so much time and energy in it, and now I could muster my courage to handle my study.
M: That's great! So you only have to provide the round-trip transportation fee, vacation expenses and miscellaneous costs, because assistantships usually cover an academic year, which is nine months. Which school gave you such an assistantship, Texas U. or the other university？
W: No, Miami University.
M: So, you'll go to the sunny South. The view in Miami is fantastic and you could have a fun time there.
W: You've got a regional hang-up, Burt. This Miami University just happens to be in Oxford, Ohio. But I could also enjoy another viewpoint there, and I prefer the Oxford sight.
M: What's your field？ Have you made any change？
W: I'm going to major in Education, concentrating on Teaching English as a Foreign Language. What with working part time, it will probably take me two years to get my M. A. degree. And until that time I could save the fee or the tuition.
M: So, you are not following in your father's footsteps？
W: No, writing doesn't appeal to me, but I'm worried about the make up credits.

第9题
But, you know, it is very possible that in the future the question will disappear, and we might very well ask instead, "What do you play？"
Computers and other technological, equipment are making jobs more automated and less personally demanding. Scientists tell us that one day in the foreseeable future, very few people will have to work. Our society will be operated by computers and we will have much more free time, so that our games will become more important than our jobs.
At the beginning of this century, almost everybody believed in work. But by the end of this century, we might be thinking quite differently. Today, people are divided into social classes in accordance with the types of work they do; tomorrow, it is more than likely that we will be divided according to the types of games we play.
This change in the use of our time may give rise to a new race of therapists (治疗学家) called "fun specialists," who will fill the same functions as our current career specialists. They will show us how to get the most fun and enjoyment out of our leisure time. Someday people will no longer be known primarily by the work they do.
What is the main idea of the passage？
A．Work plays an important part in our general lifestyle.
B．People are divided into social classes according to how much they earn each month.
C．It is very possible that game will replace work as the most important part in our life.
D．Game players know how to get the most fun and enjoyment out of our leisure time.
