听力原文:M1: Hi, I stopped by to see if you were still looking for a roommate to share your house.
M2: Yeah, I sure am. Ever since I cut back on my working hours to go to school, I've been really strapped fog cash.
M1: Oh.
M2: Let me show you the place. Uh, here's the living room.
M1: Oh. It looks like you could use a new carpet ... and those stains?
M2: Well. I know it needs to be cleaned, but I just don't have the money to do it right now.
M1: What about the kitchen?
M2: Right this way. Look. It's completely furnished with all the latest appliances, except...
M1: What?
M2: Well, the refrigerator door is broken ... a little bit ... and it won't shut all the way. It needs fixing, but don't worry. It isn't that bad.
M1: Well how about the bathroom? Don't tell me the toilet is clogged or the sink has a few leaks.
M2: No, those work fine, but, uh, the window needs fixing.
M1: Let me see. Where's the window pane?
M2: Well, that's another slight problem. I've put up a piece of cardboard to keep out the rain and snow, and if it gets a little cold, you can always turn up the heat.
M1: I can't believe you've survived under these conditions.
M2: So what do you think? You really can't beat a place like this for $450 a month. So it has its problems, but we can fix those.
M1: Uh, no thank you. I think I've seen enough.

听力原文:M: Isn't it a relief to see people and lights, Turner? Now, let me see. Where are we exactly? According to my map, this must be Chagford.
W: You're right, Don. That sign says Chagford Town Hall. But there's a more interesting notice on the other side of the square. Do you see what it says? "Open for Devon Cream Teas".
M: Oh, yes, so it does. Oh, I must get a newspaper. There's a newsagent next door.
W: What for?
M: To find out what's been happening.
W: I don't need a newspaper. We must have been walking for at least six hours. My feet have been hurting for a- bout four hours and I've been starving since we shared that tin of cold beans.
M: You're hungry again? I see what you mean. That tea shop does look interesting. We could plan tomorrow's walk while we were having tea.
W: So toady we had complete Devon cream teas, with additional sandwiches and cakes, and another order of scones. I feel better. How about you?
M: A Devon cream tea is better than a tin of cold beans. In fact, it's better than almost anything... except a good newspaper. Do you ever buy a newspaper?

听力原文:M: Hello, Prof. Dianna, you wanted to see me? W: Oh, yes, Frank. Thanks for coming. It's about your work as a teaching assistant. I've just read your evaluations, the ones the students filled out toward the end of the semester.
M: Yes...? Well, how were they?
W: Would you like to take a look? Out of a possible score of five, you got a four point eight. That's very high, Frank.
M: Well, what a pleasant surprise.
W: When we see such a high score, we generally try to keep the Teaching Assistant on a little longer and perhaps even ask them to cover more classes. What do you say, Frank? Would you like this?
M: I sure would, but I don't know if I can. Next fall will be my last semester of coursework for my master's and I'll be very busy doing re search on my thesis. Could I have a few days to think about it?
W: Certainly, I wouldn't want you to fall behind in your course-work, but I do think you should consider getting more experience in the class room. You seem to have a real gift.

听力原文:W: I enjoy going through secondhand bookstores, don't you? It's interesting to see what people used to enjoy reading. Did you see this old book of children's stories?
M: Some of these books aren't so old, though. See? This novel was published only six years ago. It cost seventy-five cents.
W: Hey! Look at this!
M: What? Are you getting interested in nineteenth-century plays all of a sudden?
W: No. Look at the signature. Someone gave this book as a present, and wrote a note on the inside of the front cover. It's dated 1856. Maybe it's worth something.
M: Everything on that shelf is worth fifty cents.
W: But if this is the signature of someone who is well-known, it might bring a lot more. I hear William Shakespeare's signature is worth about a million dollars.
M: Oh? I can hardly read what the one says. Who wrote it?
W: The name looks like "Harold Dickinson". Wasn't he a politician or something? I'm going to buy this book and see if I can find a name like that in the library.
M: Good luck. Your book of plays may make you rich, but I'll bet my seventy-five cents novel is a better buy.

B.In a library.
C.At a secondhand bookstore.

听力原文:M: Excuse me, may I have some information about the reception party that you're advertising outside. It's for new students, isn't that right?
W: That's right and what would you like to know about it?
M: Well, I'm not really sure what the purpose of the event is.
W: The party will provide students with a chance to get to know each other, and a chance for students who have successfully been through university to pass on some valuable advice.
M: Who's organizing the event? Is it the faculty or...
W: Actually, it is the Alumni Association that's organizing this event. So, it's strictly a student to student event.
M: I hope we won't have to sit through a lot of boring speeches. I mean aren't these students just "brains" anyway. What can they actually do to help a guy like me?
W: No, these people are not "brains" at all. The Alumni are simply a group of normal, but grateful students who hope that, by sharing their experiences with new students, they can help more students to successfully graduate.
M: But still we have any time for some fun at this party?
W: Most of the time will be split between eating, dancing, and singing—so not to worry. However, some of the words of wisdom from the former students should not be missed.
M: You've got a point. They are, after all, success stories if they've managed to survive university life. I hear about only half of all students who start university actually finish it.
W: And besides that, there's another reason to go.
M: What's that?
W: The pie they'll be serving is delicious. I know since I'm the one who will be making it.
(20)
A.The University faculty.
B.The Student Association.
C.Former students.
D.No one.

M: Oh, so where are you going this summer?
W: Well, this summer. It's finally going to be Gettysburg.
M: Finally? You mean they never took you there yet? I mean Gettysburg. It's probably the most famous civil war site in the country. It's only a couple of hours away. I think that would be one of the first places that they've taken you. I have been there a couple of times.
W: We were gonna to be about ten, well, no, it was exactly ten years ago. But I don't know. Something happened, I cannot remember what...
M: Something changed your plans.
W: Yeah, don't ask me what it was, but we ended up not going anywhere that year. I hope that doesn't happen again this year. I wrote a paper about Gettysburg last semester for a history class. I was to make a thorough investigation on the political situation in the United States right after the battle at Gettysburg, so I'm eager to see the place.
