听力原文:W: Hello, Mary Smith here. Could I speak to Mr. Brown, please?
M: Speaking.
W: Oh, it's you, Andrew, is it? I didn't recognize your voice. Sounds as if you're miles away.
M: Oh, hello, Mary. Yes, the line isn't very good. I'll speak a bit louder. Is that any better?
W: Yes, that's much better now. Andrew, it looks as if I won't be able to keep the appointment we made.
M: That was to be Friday, wasn't it?
W: Yes, I'm so sorry. This visitor I was actually expecting last week had some kind of change in his schedule, and now he's rung me up to say the only day he can come is next Friday.
M: I see.
W: And the trouble is, as he's over from Argentina, I can't very well put him off. Hope you understand.
M: Well, I suppose so.
W: But could we meet on Saturday? Or would you prefer the beginning of next week?
M: Afraid I'm tied up at the weekend. And...let me just check. Tuesday would be all right, I think.
W: Tuesday is O.K. for me too. Could you come here at 11:30 as we'd arranged? I'll show you round our place, we could lunch together and work out the terms of our contract in the afternoon. How does that sound to you?
M: Yes, fine. I'll write it down in my diary. That's Tuesday, 12th December. Right, I'll be at your place at 11:30 then.
W: Thanks, Andrew. Hope I haven't messed up your arrangements too much.
M: Oh no, these things happen, don't they? See you next Tuesday. And have a nice weekend.
W: Thanks. You too.

Sam: OK. Maybe in this way, first, divide them into several groups according to their duty requirements: sales programme, service programme, and working procedure demonstration, then train them separately. How about that?
Mary: Yes. That's it. Make a schedule. (Sam demonstrates the working procedure to the employees.)
Sam: When you get here in the morning, warm up the machine for three to five minutes because it needs to be heated to work well.
Nancy: We got it.
Sam: Hot liquid is used in production. Remember to wear your protective gloves provided. That way you won't get burnt. Now, make sure to wear the respirator at all times. There are harmful vapours in the area.
Nancy: Don't worry! We'll keep that in mind.
Sam: When you remove the wrapped packs from the machine, use these tongs because they are very hot.
Nancy: OK, thank you for your advice, we will follow it.

The point I am making is this. Part of winning this IT battle for the future is to create a culture in which the worlds of education, academia, science, technology and business are engaged in a perpetual conversation and exchange of views. A conversation in which we are breaking new ground in scientific and technological advance, in which our schools and universities feel comfortable with its potential; in which business and society are naturally looking for ways of applying the advances made.
There are now 600 million people online. Worldwide 140,000 more people connect to the net every day. In the last three decades the price of a transatlantic phone call has fallen to a small fraction of its original level. In the same period, just as Intel's Gordon Moore predicted, computing power has doubled every eighteen months to two years. A 3G handset, soon to be on sale in every high street in the UK, has around 20,000 times more computing power than the Apollo 11 spacecraft.
Recently, we witnessed an incredible moment when scientists at MIT in the US and UCL in London teamed up to pull off the first transatlantic virtual handshake. Using second-generation Internet technology, they recreated the sense of touch over a 3,000-mile distance — a remarkable development that could have applications for areas as diverse as medicine and design.
