W: Right, so how long do yon want to leave the car with us?
M: Well, I'm flying to Paris on the 5th and coming back on the 19th — that's fourteen days, isn't it?

听力原文:Listener: Hello, Professor, can you hear me?
Professor W: Yes, we can hear you fine.
Listener: My name is Humphries, Albert Humphries, and I live in Balham, in London.
Professor W: Yes, good evening Mr. Humphries. What is your question'?
Mressor H: I've been studying Spanish for some years, i go to Spain on holiday sometimes. I've learnt quite a lot of grammar and vocabulary. But I find it very difficult to speak, and when I went to Spain this summer, I couldn't understand the Spanish people at all. I got really disheartened.
Professor W: Yes, it is a problem. How long have you been studying Spanish?
Mressor H: About four years.
Professor W: Yes, how exactly? Going to an evening class, using tapes...?
Mressor H: I've been going to an evening class and I've watched quite a lot of the BBC television programs.
Professor W: Oh, yes. They're very good. Did you buy the BBC book?
Mrcssor H: No, we use different book in the class. But I watched the programs.
Professor W: Yes, I see_Mr. Humphries, I always think that learning a language is rather like learning to drive. Now, you couldn't learn to drive a car by sitting in a classroom or watching television. I think what you need is a lot of practice in using the language.
Mressor H: That' s all very well if you live in the country where they speak the language, but I don't.
Professor W: Yes, I understand the problem. Though even if you live in the country where the language is spoken, you have to reach a certain standard before you are able to have conversations with the natives. I was thinking perhaps you might arrange with another student or other students to have regular conversation practice.
Mressor H: But the other students make the same mistakes as i do.
Professor W: I think you're confusing learning with practicing. Remember what I said about driving a car. Learning to speak means being able to put together the right groups of words and to say them in a reasonably accurate way.
Mressor H: And what about learning to understand real Spanish?
Professor W: Well, again, you need practice in hearing the Spanish language spoken by Spanish speakers. There are Spanish speakers in London. Get one of them to read some extracts from a Spanish newspaper onto a cassette. Have you got a cassette recorder?
Mressor H: Yes.
Professor W: Then you want to listen and listen and listen to the recordings until you almost know them by heart, just as if you were learning to drive, you'd practice parking the car, over and over again, till you could do it perfectly. Learning to speak a language is a very hard business. You don't need a huge vocabulary. You need a small vocabulary that you can use really efficiently, and to be able to do that you need a lot of practice.
How has Mr. Humphries been learning Spanish?
A.He has been going to an evening class and made many foreign friends.
B.He has watched quite a lot of DVD.
C.He has listened to the BBC radio programs.
D.He has been going to an evening class and has watched quite a lot of the BBC TV programs.

听力原文:1 That's good. Everything is almost ready. But did you find that you missed one important thing in your list? The refrigerators. They are for keeping our fresh vegetables and poultry. Besides, two dishwashers are obviously not enough though we do have some kitchen help. I hope we can get these two things ready before Friday. Oh, yes, I have already told the purchasing department to double check with our suppliers and make sure we have fresh seafood every day. Now, I am going to the department responsible for the promotion to see how they have been doing. They are always a kind of slow, but I'll come back to check again on Friday. Hopefully we can have a good start.
2 Mr. Legan, I think you have really done a good job. This is so big and spacious. Things sold here are over a thousand items, which range from furniture to kitchenware and food. I think we have enough cashiers to work at registers on two shifts. But we don't have enough people who can help us show customers around and put things on the shelves. These people should be able to understand a little bit of English and be hard-working. By the way, we might rent part of our shelves out to some big companies like P&G or Kellogg's. Then we can have some stable suppliers. What do you think?
3 Hay, Barbara, I'm just calling to tell you that we have already found a good place for our business. It is big enough to hold 3-4 cars or trucks at the same time. It is close to downtown. There are two coffee shops and one snack bar nearby so our customers can just go in and take a rest while waiting. I have also talked with a mechanic and he said he would think about our offer. But we have another big problem. Although the bank has approved our application we still don't have enough to buy the whole business. We'll have to think of some other ways. I hope we can start our business next month.
4 Right, Mr. Plunkett, we have agreed on many things, the operation system, sharing of profits and even our responsibilities. Now we have to talk about it in more details. Since this is not a small business, we need to make sure that everything should run smoothly. The training of housekeepers should be put on the top of the list and if I am correct, it's going to start the day after tomorrow, But now it seems hard for us to find someone who is good at communicating with others and organizing big activities. This person should also be able to deal with complaints of our customers and their requirements. This is a very important part for our business.
5 Well, to start a business like tiffs, we have to understand in the first place whether what we make, that is our products, have appeal to the global market, and in the second place how we go about selling it. We must look at it with the same seriousness as we look at the home market. Then we'll need to make sure we've got the fight price, and the fight packaging, and we'll have to find distribution channels to ensure that our goods go to the right people. Then there is the question of language, but I don't think this is such an insuperable obstacle as some people seem to think.
