M: No, I have been around. It's just that I've got this pain in my elbow that's keeping me from playing tennis. And you know how much I love tennis! W: I know. I used to see you practice every night. So what have you been doing to treat your elbow？ M: You name it pain-killers, heating pads, ice. But nothing seems to work. W: Have you tried acupuncture？ M: Well, I've heard about it--they stick needles in all parts of your body, but I'm not too sure. W: I don't blame you for being hesitant. I had a similar problem with my shoulder a while back. But I read an article about acupuncture for relieving pain, so I figured, why not？ I'll try it. M: And it worked？ W: It worked for me. The article was about an acupuncturist in California who's been successful in helping 90 percent of the people he's treated for the pain they get in their hands when they type too much. M: That sounds promising. Now, isn't acupuncture a Chinese tradition？ W: That's right. The Chinese have been using acupuncture to treat pain for thousands of years. But it's really starting to catch on over here now. There are more than 9,000 licensed acupuncturists in the United States. M: Wow! Is there an acupuncturist near campus？ W: There sure is. Are you busy now？ I could walk you over there and you could make an appointment. M: That'd be great. I want to get this problem taken care of as soon as possible so I can start playing tennis again. (23) A．Places to play tennis. B．A way to relieve pain. C．Common sports injuries. D．A topic for a research paper.

M：Yeah, it's a huge increase. How are you managing your budget？ W：Well, (23)I got a student loan, which is just over ￡3 000, but also I get some money from my parents as well. They're happy to help out because it's towards an education；as long as we're not just wasting it all in drinking it all away. I am in the 3rd year.1 went to the end of my overdraft a couple of times and I'm lucky to have middle class parents who can help me out really. M：But mostly your finances have been poor! W：(24)That's because of the summer. If I just 1ived as a normal student and then worked during the summer it wouldn't be so bad—but I go on big holidays and things. This year I went to the Philippines and then came back overland from Singapore, which is a wicked experience, but eats into your finances obviously. What about you？ M：My parents came to the arrangement that first of all they paid the fees for me；secondly they paid my hall fees； and thirdly they gave me an allowance. W：That's quite practical. But can you manage？ M：Yeah, I did excellently. I decided first of all I was going to get a first, which I did, and secondly 1 was not going to have any debts.(25)I put the money in a high interest account, so I came out with no debts at all. But I did live on Marmite sandwiches almost for three years. (20) A．She earned a scholarship which covers all her studies. B．She got both a student loan and support from parents.

B．She has a headache. C．She feels fired and sleepy all the time. D．She is ill.

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.

D．She wants to start the project from her own family.

M: Well, I've got to write a paper about Hollywood in the 30s and 40s, and I'm really struggling. There are hundreds of books, and I just don't know where to begin. W: Your topic sounds pretty big. Why don't you narrow it down to something like...,uh... the history of the studios during that time？ M: You know. I was thinking about doing that, but more than 30 books came up when I typed in "movie studios". W: You could cut that down even further by listing the specific years you want. Try adding "1930s" or "1940s" or maybe "Golden Age". M: "Golden Age" is a good idea. Let me type that in... Hey, look, just 6 books this time. That's a lot better. W: Oh... another thing you might consider..., have you tried looking for any magazine or newspaper articles？ M: No, I've only been searching for books. W: Well, you can look up magazine articles in the Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature. And we do have the Los Angeles Times available over there.

B．He has no reading preference. C．He doesn't read the same kind of books as the woman. D．He prefers writing to reading.

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. &8226;Look at the six sentences for this part. &8226;You will hear a conversation between a teenage girl called Anna and her father about a party. &8226;Decide if each sentence is correct or incorrect. Anna begins by asking her father to collect her from the party. A．正确 B．错误

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. M: Thanks for your praise, Professor. W: Let me know by the beginning of next week, will you？ M: Sure thing. I'll drop by again on Monday or Tuesday. (23) A．More work as an instructor. B．A higher salary. C．A longer vacation period. D．A research assignment.

M: Oh, you mean the wife is going to give birth to her husband？ W: Right. The child will be born in two months and the couple won't feel sad about having no children! How great! M: But isn't that strange？ How could the father face another self! You see, they'll look exactly the same! And if they had decided to clone the wife, she'd be giving birth to herself! W: Well, isn't it charming to live your own life again？ I think human cloning is beneficial in many ways, such as providing remedies for new incurable diseases, prolonging one's life, and so on. M: That's very good, but what'll be the relationship between the parents and their cloned copy？ What responsibilities should people take for their own clone？ And what if the child falls in love with his own mother one day？ As I see it, human cloning is unethical and must be prohibited! W: Well, maybe human cloning still has a long way to go, or, maybe, the couple would be better of adopting a child. Who has the couple cloned？ A．The wife. B．The husband. C．The baby. D．A sheep.

M: Thank you, Miss Carlyle, I'm in bad need of such suggestions because, to be frank, my company, although small, is rapidly expanding. And please, call me Len. So, what are your recommendations for my new organizational structure？ W: Call me Mary. First, let's start with your operation here. You should set up separate Administrative, Clerical, Back office, and Support functions. There's too much work for your personnel to wear more than one hat any more. M: Yes, they're already overworked. But that will entail more Managerial functions, won't it？ W: That's right, Lea, and you'll need at least two new managers for separate Marketing and Product Development departments. M: OK, Mary. What else？ W: I think you'll need an Executive assistant to help you deal with corporate affairs. That should do it for your headquarters here, but since your business is no longer just local, I also suggest setting up a regional office in the south. M: What about personnel there？ W: You'll need the same basic functionality as here, on a reduced scale. Product Development is only needed at headquarters for now. Your regional head can manage all functions there initially, but will probably need an assistant, also. And that's it! M: Thanks for your advice, Mary. You do help a lot. Looks like I'll need that assistant right away to help me set all this up! (23) A．A personnel manager. B．A business consultant. C．A secretary. D．An assistant.

M: I'm sorry about that. But the computer is down, and everybody has had to wait this afternoon. Q: What's the woman complaining about？ (14) A．The long wait. B．The broken-down computer. C．The mistakes in her telephone bill. D．The bad telephone service.

M: I saw that article, too. But think, if someone runs into a drug store for 10 minutes, he is usually there to make a specific purchase. W: And someone who spends more time there may be just looking？ M: Exactly. Haven't you ever gone into a store thinking that you'll buy something and then talk yourself out of it？ W: Yes, I have. Especially when I thought I could get it for less elsewhere, or I really didn't need it after all. M: Exactly, but, if you run in to buy something specific and have very little time, you pick it up, pay for it immediately, and then leave. W: That's true. Maybe we should learn a lesson from that. Take your time end you'll spend less money. M: I doubt if that would be true in all stores though. In a department store, for instance, you may see a sweater or some thing you never intend to buy, and buy it because you have time to look around. (20) A．A druggist's suggestion. B．An advertisement. C．An article. D．A salesclerk's comment.
