听力原文：Man: And today I'm talking to Angela Morgan. Angela, what made you decide to fly round the world in a helicopter？
Woman: People often ask me why I decided to do it but I'm surprised they don't ask 'Why did you wait so long？' because I'm 57 now! I'm sorry I didn't do it years ago, because it was such a wonderful experience. But the main purpose for going was to collect ￡500,000 for sick children by getting different companies to pay us money for each kilometre that we flew.
Man: And now everyone calls you the flying grandmother!
Woman: Yes, the thing about growing older is that you don't feel any different inside, so
you have to do as much as you can while you can. I'm healthy, and my own children are grown up, so I was free to go.
Man: And what about preparing for the trip？
Woman: Well, it took five months to plan. I was going to go with my husband, but he couldn't take time off work. Instead I made the trip with my flying teacher who became a great friend while she was teaching me to fly three years ago. I passed my flying test after two weeks; found it quite easy.
Man: And what was the trip like？
Woman: It was really exciting flying over so many different countries. The only thing was that we weren't able to spend much time sightseeing because we only stopped to get water and to camp. We took very little with us, but we did have tents and cooking things to use at night. We had to spend two days in Thailand because of an engine problem, but that was the longest we spent anywhere. Fortunately nothing else went wrong, so we just kept on going after that.
Man: What did you enjoy most about the trip？
Woman: The most wonderful thing about flying was seeing the differences in the countryside as we flew across 26 countries in 97 days. We flew over oceans and close to mountains; sometimes it was quite frightening, but we didn't travel when it was dark. We spent several nights camping in the desert and the sky was just full of stars. I made a video of the trip; you'll see it in a minute.
Man: Was there anything that you missed while you were away？
Woman: Well, to my surprise I didn't miss going to work or going out to restaurants or films. The most difficult thing was sitting still all the time; I normally play tennis and swim several times a week, so I started to feel very unfit. I missed hot water and proper showers sometimes too, but not as much as I thought I would!
The main reason for Angela's trip was to
A．make money for her business.
B．make money for other people.
C．have an exciting adventure.

Last year, 35 percent of final year students expected to enter the graduate job market, compared with 49 percent in 1998; the number wanting to start their own business has risen from 35 percent to 43 percent in five years.
Jason Frank, the marketing and research director at the communications agency SAS, says this creates tough competition for the good graduates. "Companies are finding it difficult and expensive to attract top talent," he says. "The people doing this sort of thing (running their own businesses) are often the sort of people that they want."
The supermarket giant Sainsbury's conducted a lot of research into what graduates wanted in an employer and used this information to develop appealing graduate advertising. Unfortunately, the reality didn't always match the glitz. "People would say things such as, 'Where's my office？' but there wasn't one--it's working on the shop floor," says the director of the recruitment department. This mismatch was one of the reasons cited when people left the scheme early. "Where it becomes difficult for us is that retail isn't seen as a sexy career. In the past we've fallen into the trap of trying to compete about being sexy, but now we're looking at what the job actually involves. Let's be really honest with them about what life's going to look like." Now graduates know before they start that they will be expected to work hard on the shop floor in return for early responsibility, such as running their own team.
Frank says that a warts-and-all approach to recruitment marketing will probably reduce the number of applicants, but should also make sure the people who do apply are a better fit for the company. "When people go in with the wrong expectations everyone's wasting their time. The student starts on a bad note, there's not a cultural fit, he might not have the right skills and the company will spend ￡100,000 training him and he will be gone in two years," Frank advises companies to use a niche marketing approach that targets segments of the student population, rather than trying to get everyone on every campus to read their brochure. It's also up to students to ensure that they think carefully about what work environment will suit them. Frank says that many fail to do any research at all. "They end up sending out applications to the companies that they have heard of in campus advertising, regardless of whether they truly know what the company does."
By his words in Paragraph 2, Jason Frank means that the drop in the number of graduates who enter the job market ______.
A．makes it difficult for good graduates to start their own business
B．creates fierce competition among companies to attract good graduates
C．creates tough competition among graduates to get a position in large companies
D．makes it difficult for companies to recruit talented people with work experience

听力原文：M: Excuse me, I wonder if you would tell me how to find a place where I can have my shoes fixed. I'm new in the town.
W: Well, of course you can always look in the yellow pages in the back of the telephone book under shoe repair. But I think there's a good shop not far from here.

By the way, do you know about the town guide？ It has all kinds of useful information. I think you'll find it in any bookstore.
M: Thanks a lot. You've been very helpful. And I'll look for that town guide next time I'm in a bookstore. Let's see, you said the repair shop was three blocks on the right？
W: No, first street on the left, then three blocks.
M: Thanks again.
What is the man looking for？
A．The bookstore.
