Jack went to a barber's shop and had his hair cut, but he was not happy with the result(结果). When his friend Bob saw him, he laughed and said, "What has happened to your hair, Jack?"
Jack said, "I tried a new barber's shop today, because I wasn't quite satisfied with my old one, but this one seems even worse."
Bob agreed. "Yes, I think you're right, Jack. Now I'll tell you what to do when you go into a barber's shop next time: look at all the barber's hair, find out whose hair looks worst, and then go straight to him."
"Why shall I go to him?" Jack asked.
"Who cut that man's hair?" answered Bob. "Just think it. He couldn't cut it himself, could he? Another barber cut it. So you know he can't be the worst barber."
Jack was not satisfied with the new barber.
A.True.
B.False.

Bob: Hello, Richard. How are you?
Richard: Fine, thanks, and you?
Bob: Not too bad. I'm thinking of going on holiday somewhere next month. I don't know if you've made your holiday plans yet, but if not, perhaps you'd like to come with me.
Richard: Thanks, that's very kind of you. Where are you planning to go?
Bob: I thought I might go camping in Scotland. What do you think of that?
Richard: Fine. Sounds like a good idea. And for how long—a fortnight?
Bob: Yes, I'm hoping to have two weeks' holiday next month.
Richard: Good. Well, providing I finish all my work on time, I'll be able to have two weeks' holiday, too.
Bob: Will Joyce be coming with us?
Richard: I'm not sure. Maybe. The problem is that she always gets one week's holiday, and of course she can't really afford a holiday this year.
Bob: Oh, dear! That's a pity! Well, the holiday shouldn't cost very much.
Richard: Suppose you had a lot of money, Bob, where would you like to go for a holiday?
Bob: Oh, I don't know. I think I would probably go to America or Japan.
Richard: If I had a lot of money, and 4 weeks' holiday I would go to Asia, I think, and travel.
Bob: Yes, that would be fantastic. Anyway, stop dreaming. We're going to Scotland and I hope it doesn't rain.

M: Yes, it was such a big success last year that we're doing it again. It's a lot less intensive this time, though, so you might be able to come along to most of the sessions.
W: Can you give me the details, then? I hear it starts on Tuesday the 2nd.
M: Well, actually the teachers are arriving on that day. Things get under way the day after. The induction session is on the first Wednesday.
W: Excellent! Can I come along to that?
M: Oh, definitely—it's a good idea, actually, because you get to know everyone before they start to form. mini-cliques and hang out with the same people for the rest of the course.
W: That's just like our students!
M: Oh yeah, maybe we don't change that much after school after all. Anyway, on Thursday we have the first set of seminars, which are my favorite sessions. (20) There's nothing scheduled on Fridays, so a lot of people do their own things, mostly prepare for the next session. Some of them went cycling last year, and two guys went windsurfing.
W: Nice. I'm busy on Fridays. What about the weekends?
M: (21) Well, on the 6th, there's the session called "Teaching". We put the teachers in groups and they have to come up with a great lesson. It's sort of taking you back to your teacher training days. You can come along to watch that—you could criticize some of the lessons if you like.
W: No problem. What about the next Saturday? Is there teaching then, too?
M: No, although that's a pretty good idea for next year. No, on the 13th, we've got more seminars.
W: When does everyone leave?
M: People leave on Monday, (22) because there's always such a good party on Sunday 14th, so they sleep it off, and then leave the next day.

21.What do teachers do with the "Teaching" session?
