W: Louisa O'Leary.
M: And your age, Mrs. O'Leary?
W: Well ... it's thirty-four.
M: Really? You don't look it at all. Now how much does your husband earn?
W: That's a personal question, but I suppose I should try and be as frank as I can with you--£ 10,000 a year.
M: That isn't much.
W: Yes.
M: Now what I'm really interested in is the way you spend your money. What about housiug, for example?
W: Well, our house costs us about ... er, £ 300 a month.
M: Oh, that must be difficult with ten thousand a year!
W: It certainly is. I was working before we had the baby, of course. That used to make things a lot easier. Now we're much less well off.
M: Mm. Apart from the house, where does your money go?
W: Food is the biggest item. That's about £ 240 a month for food and other small bits and pieces-cleaning materials and so on. For electricity, we only use it for lighting. That's about £ 50 a year.

听力原文: Gamblers may have different lifestyles and betting habits, but almost every one of them has a favorite story of good luck or ill luck.
Once, for example, a young man and woman entered Bradley's grand casino at Palm Beach. They played for an hour and lost $10,000. The next morning the girl burst into Bradley's office.
"We were on our honeymoon and he lost all our life savings," she sobbed.
A soft-hearted man by nature, the casino owner Bradley responded:
"Sorry to hear that, young lady, here is your $10,000. But your husband is never to set foot in my casino again."
That evening Bradley was outraged when he saw the young man bent over the roulette table.
"What are you doing here? I told your wife... "
"What wife?" the young man interrupted.
Bradley realized that he had been taken in but he managed a thin smile when he received a telegram an hour later from another city with the message.
"Thanks."

W: Yeah, of course. It looks funny, though, like a battery. What's it for? Is it really for garbage?
M: Not really. Actually it's a dustbin for used batteries.
W: Used batteries? What do you mean by that? Why do we need a special dustbin for used batteries?
M: Well, you know there are still a lot of heavy metals left in used batteries? So by recycling the batteries, we can not only make full use of the metals left, but also prevent the environment from being polluted.
W: Oh, I see. Can this work? Our efforts are too insignificant.
M: Even though we are not ecologists or biologists, there is still a lot we can do. The Student Union is sponsoring a one-month program called "Green Movement", which is aimed at making more and more students aware of serious environmental problems we are facing now.
W: Sounds quite exciting—"Green Movement". What, for example, can I do?
M: Well, quite a lot. For one thing, you can stop using those plastic meal-boxes and disposable wooden chopsticks. Plastic meal-boxes do great harm to the environment and disposable chopsticks are a big waste of forest resources. Well, there will be a lecture tomorrow afternoon at four o'clock. You may attend if you are interested.
W: Tomorrow afternoon...let me think...yeah, I happen to be free. I will go there.
