听力原文:W: I've been reading about a new snack food. It's made from fish. Have you heard anything about it?
M: No. I haven't, but 1 don't like fish very much anyway.
W: Not to worry. Although it's made primarily from fish, it actually doesn't have a fishy taste. In fact, it can be flavored with tomato, cheese, or chocolate for instance

W: First the fish is minced and cooked and fermented. Then water and starch are added to make a dough.

M: Mm, have you got any samples? I might be willing to try the cheese-flavored variety.
W: No, none of it seems to be available yet. As I understand it, this fish snack food probably won't be in the stores for another couple of years. So you'll have a while to get used to the whole idea.
