听力原文： Since man first scrawled in the dirt with his finger, people have searched for better ways to record the written word. Today, that quest is perhaps best exemplified by one of the writing instrument industry's leaders: Parker Pen.
In America, the pen-making industry officially began in 1809. But, it wasn't until the 1880s that the fountain pen as we now know got its start. Among the early industry leaders was George Safford Parker, a school teacher from Janesville, who became frustrated with the unreliability of the writing instruments then available to his students.
To improve his insufficient teaching salary, Parker had a sideline as an agent for John Holland fountain pens. The pens were unreliable, delivering too much ink at times and at other times, no ink at all. In any case, Parker felt obligated to repair the pens he sold to his students. So, he purchased a few small tools, and began to learn the inner workings of fountain pens. As the students learned they could depend on their teacher to keep their pens in working order, the number of pens he sold increased, so did his frustration. Finally, he decided he could make a better pen himself. And he did.
Parker patented his first fountain pen design on December 10, 1889. Two years later he entered a partnership with insurance man W. E Palmer and in February of 1892 they incorporated the Parker Pen Company.

Peterson Turbines
500 Main Boulevard
Peoria, IL 55490
June 20
Mr. Fred Higgins
President
First Rate Lawn Supply
31 Nightshade Street
Peoria, IL 55490
Dear Mr. Higgins:
Three years ago we chose to buy lawn sprinkler valves from you for our new headquarters because we knew of you as a neighborhood business that lives up to the reputation of its company slogan: "Quality is our main priority."
As you may recall, your sales representative Andrew Peters spoke to me at length about our needs. I told him that we were more interested in durability than in saving a few dollars. Andrew said that you carried both brass and plastic valves, brass for $75 each and plastic for $50 each, both from reliable manufacturers. We knew that the brass are usually good for 6 years. Andrew assured us that the plastic would hold up as well, if not better.
On Andrew's recommendation our company purchased 48 plastic automatic sprinkler valves from you. Over the past 3 months the sleeve connecting the top of the valve to the main water pipe has burst or cracked on 12 of the valves. Last Sunday one-third of the lawn was flooded for a full day, since 2 valves broke while our small maintenance crew was out handling a problem in another building across town.
The result is that besides repairing considerable damage to the lawn (estimates run about $1,000), we will need to replace the 12 valves.
We are aware that our warranty expired a year ago. However, since the plastic valves were purchased on your recommendation, we think you should be willing to stand behind your work and provide the labor to install brass valves. We are willing to pay for the new valves themselves.
Sincerely yours,
Maria Palmer
Maintenance supervisor

听力原文：W: How can I help you？
M: I'd like to return this sweater for a refund. I bought it a week ago.
W: Well, what seems to be the problem？
M: Isn't it obvious by just looking at it？ The first time I washed and dried it, the thing shrank at least five sizes.
W: I see what you mean, but did you follow the washing instructions？ I think it says right here on the label to hand wash it and then to dry it on low heat.
M: How was I supposed to know that？ The label is written in French!
W: The sales clerk must have told you when you bought it.
M: And something else: The stitching is coming undone and the colour faded from a nice dark blue to green. What kind of merchandise are you trying to sell here anyway？
W: Listen, sir. We take a lot of pride in our clothing. What I can do is allow you to change the sweater for another one.
M: I don't want to change it for anything! I just want my money back!
W: Well, I can give you credit on your next purchase, and since the item you purchased was on clearance, we can't give you a refund.
M: A clearance item! There wasn't anything on the price tag or on the clothing rack that said anything about that.
W: I guess you didn't read the fine print in our ad.
M: I haven't seen any of it.
W: Look. Here's the ad, and the information about the clearance sale is right here at the bottom on the back page.
M: How was I supposed to see such small words!
W: Anyway, you can only return items with a receipt within six days, and unfortunately, that was yesterday in your case.
M: What a rip off! I want to talk to the manager.
