听力原文：M: If I were you, I would take a plane instead of a train. It will take you forever to get there.

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. Why does Dave need a roommate？ A．He was laid off from his job and needs someone to pay for the rent. B．He is working fewer hours and is short of money.

M: I remember receiving their calendar of activities in my campus mailbox a week ago. I didn't really look at it though. Isn't that where they organize parties and trips for foreign students？ W: Not just for foreign students. The International Center's activities are intended for all students. They set up conversation tutorials for a variety of languages, and, through the center's Host Family Program, you can visit the home of a local family. M: Now that you mention it, it would be nice to meet more people from this area. I find the customs of this country really confusing sometimes. But also there are times when I need to talk to people who come from other countries as I do. I'll bet a lot of them feel the way I do. W: Of course. You are not the only person who is new around here. Take me. My family lives five hundred miles away from here. That isn't another country, but it is a long distance. The center is a good place for meeting people who can tell you how to get to know this city. And if you ever feel lonely, you can go over there and find someone to talk to. On week nights, they don't close until 11: 30. M: I guess it's worth visiting. Did you say you are going there tonight？ W: Uh-huh, to a coffee hour at eight. M: All right. I'll come, too. I might as well see what the International Center is like. How about meeting me in front of the library and we'll walk there together？ W: Sure. See you then. What does the International Center send out to students？ A．A diagram of their facilities. B．A timetable of events. C．Maps of the city. D．Samples of coffee from other countries.

M: Yes, I'm planning on it. W: I wonder if I could enroll in it. I know it's a graduate course and I'm only a junior, but... M: Aren't you a bit young？ I've allowed qualified seniors to take the course and they usually have a hard timekeeping up. W: I know, but the geology of the American West is my favorite interest and I've done a lot of reading in the field. Last semester I took Prof. Burman's course and I didn't find it challenging enough. M: I see. You certainly aren't one of those students who are out for easy grades. W: I should say not. I really want to learn something. M: Well, I'll speak to Prof. Burman. If he thinks you're ready, I'll let you enroll. W: Oh, thanks. Professor Donner, that's really very nice of you.

M: No. Does it look like I've stopped eating？ I've been spending a lot of time in the library. W: Working on a paper？ M: I wish I was working on a paper! I'm working on three different papers: anthropology, English literature, and history. W: Wow, that is a lot of work. M: Yeah, and what's frustrating is that I'm studying the nineteenth century British Empire in all three classes, but I can't just write a single paper for all three. W: Why not？ M: The professors won't let me even if I make it three times as long as the suggested length. W: That's too bad. Could you write your papers on three aspects of one topic？ M: Hmm. What do you mean？ Do you have something in mind？ W: Well, let's see. Hmm... Maybe you could do something with Romanticism, like, ohh.., write your anthropology paper on the cultural basis of Romanticism, and, uh, your history paper on the influence of the Romantic poets on British foreign policy, and, OK, and your English paper on an analysis of some Romantic poems. M: Hey, that's not a bad idea! I've already started the research for one of the papers, so I can use that. What can I do to repay you？ W: You want to write up my chemistry paper for me？ M: I'd love to, but I've never taken chemistry, so I'm not sure you'd like the results. W: Oh well, no thanks necessary then. I'll do it myself. Have a good weekend, and try to get out of the library and get some sleep. You have big circles under your eyes. M: OK, I'll try.

M: Who is this 21st century's Newton？ W: Professor Greg, have you heard of him？ M: Yes. He does have a good reputation in the Physical Science Department. W: And a well deserved one. The same students who Pall asleep in discussion group fight for front-row seats in his lectures. M: Oh, on. I hope this isn't amazing. W: You can joke. But it's great to have a professor who's not only interesting but prepares to give up time to students. M: I know it is really rare. Maybe I should sit in his class some time. Do you think he'd care？ W: Not at all. Lots of students bring their friends. He says he feels flattered. M: Well, just to be safe, I think I'll bring my dinner along as well.

M: I do have a lot of papers and magazines down on the basement. Volunteers used to come by these apartments regularly to collect waste paper. I still save it but people seldom ask for it nowadays and I' ve never gone over to the recycling center myself. W: That’s typical. A few years ago people were really enthusiastic about musing waste paper. Unfortunately, interest has been decreasing lately. Manufacturers now use waste paper for things, like paper bags, towels, napkins and boxes. But the demand is down. I think they need to find new commercial uses for recycled paper. M: I suppose things like greeting cards, calendars and writing paper could be made from it too. But recycled paper usually has a dingy color, doesn't it？ W: Well, it wouldn’t be suitable for art books or high-quality magazine paper. But who cares about the drab color if waste paper can take place of virgin wood pulp and so help to preserve forests. M: You are right.
