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
M: How can it not taste fishy? Do you know how this snack food is made?
W: First the fish is minced and cooked and fermented. Then water and starch are added to make a dough.
M: It sounds awful.
W: Actually the dough is very bland al that point, so the flavorings are added to give it some taste.
M: Well, it still sounds a little strange. But I suppose this product will at least be low calorie and high protein. like a health food.
W: Yes, you could call it that. And it has a long shelf life, so it won't spoil quickly. It is also easy to digest and can ha made from types of fish that usually aren't eaten, or from high grade fish by-products,
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.
M: A couple of years, ah? It may just take me that long. but thanks for telling me about it.

A.Tomato.

听力原文:W: David, sorry for my school board meeting last night so late. I've been working on a special project with the school board, and I like your opinion on it.
M: What is it?
W: I've been trying to find a way to encourage reading.
M: Tell me about it. I work with families everyday, Eva. I see how people spend their leisure time --young and old.
W: Mostly watching TV. Well, that would be OK, if people took the time to read.
M: I couldn't agree with you more.
W: The question is, how do we get them to read more?
M: I think you are going to give me the answer to that question. You have that look in your eye.
W: I do have the answer, or at least I think I do. The plan is a simple one. Involve the entire family in a reading project. But first in the schoolrooms. By arranging with the public schools to schedule one hour a week--to start with. During that time, parents are invited to attended to read along with the children.
M: It can go beyond the school system.
W: Really?
M: I guarantee you it would go very well in the hospitals. My patients--mostly kids--would love to read or to be read to.
W: I love the idea. In that way, we can spend more time together. You and I are very busy these days, we need to find more time to be together, to do things together. That would be wonderful.

听力原文:Girl: Are you busy Dad? I've got something I want to ask you. I've been invited to a party on Saturday. Would you give me a lift there?
Man: Where is the party then?
Girl: It's at Tom's house. His sister is 18 on Saturday, and they're having a big
celebration. It's going to be brilliant. They're having a disco and Tom's Mum's a wonderful cook, so the food will be good. They've invited all their friends from school but their cousins will be there too.
Man: Well, I hope the weather stays warm so you can be outside. It sounds as if a lot of people are coming. But it all sounds fine to me. It'll be nice for you to go out at the weekend. You spend too much time at home studying. Now, what time does the party start and what time does it finish?
Girl: It starts at eight o'clock and finishes about half past twelve. But Jane's going as well, and her Dad will collect us and bring us home afterwards. It's all arranged.
Man: Mmm ... it'll be difficult for us to take you. Mum and I are going to see a film which starts at 7:15. Let's see. Why don't we collect you and Jane at the end of the party? Then you could ask Jane's Dad to take you both to the party at eight.
Girl: I'm sure that'll be fine. I'll go and give Jane a ring.
Man: Just one thing though — we'll pick you up at 11:30. I really think that's late enough.
Girl: Oh Dad! That's so early. Remember we don't have to go to school on Sunday! Don't make us leave an hour before everyone else.
Man: Well, I suppose it is the weekend. Let's say midnight. But definitely no later.
Girl: But ...
Man: That's my final decision! Now go and ring Jane before I change my mind!
Girl: Okay.
