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?

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.

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?

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?

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.
