听力原文:M: I'm really worried about paying my tuition for the next term at school. School fees are getting so high. I may have to cut back on my classes and work more hours to earn more.
W: I understand that you worry about that. Every year it seems to me that more students worry about money.
M: I agree. And it's hard to study full time and hold down any kind of job.
W: Have you thought about applying for financial aid?
M: Yah, now, I have, but the real problem is that so many people apply and there's just not enough financial aid available.
W: Maybe you could qualify for some kind of student loan that you would repay after you finish studying. You should go to the financial aid office and see what the requirements are.
M: I suppose that's true. Sometimes I wish the cost of education was completely covered by the government.
W: I'm sure we're not the only ones who are worried about this.
M: Oh, I think it's quite clear that a lot of people think about this. Now that a good education is becoming a must for one to get a good job, I think more people will worry in the future. I can't even pay for myself! How am I supposed to save up to pay for my kids to go to school?

Hey, you could even ask, uh... what's her name.., yeah that new girl, Susan, the one that moved in across the street! I bet she'd be willing to help you !
