听力原文: A blonde lady walks into a New York City Bank and asks for the loan officer. She says she is going to Europe on business for 2 weeks and needs to borrow $ 5,000. The bank officer says he will need some kind of security for the loan, so the lady hands over the keys to a new, costly car parked in front of the bank. With all checked out, the bank agrees to accept the car as security for the loan. The loan officer drives the new car into the bank's underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks later the lady returns, repays the $ 5,000 she loaned, and $15.40 interest. The loan officer comes up to the lady and says, "We here at the bank are very happy to this deal, but while you were away, I checked you out, and I'm a little puzzled. I found out that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles me is why you would bother to borrow $ 5,000. "The lady replies, "Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for 15 dollars?"
