M: Who are you talking with, Jane?

W: I want to go to Yellow Street.
M: Yes, Madam. It’ll take about twenty minutes.
W: The traffic seems terribly heavy. It’s unusual.
M: No, Madam. It’s about the same every day at this time.
(Text 5)
W: This is my house. You can’t do anything against my wishes. You can’t put your feet on my chairs. You can’t stay out late at night. You can’t ask friends to dinner in the house. You must pay me at the beginning of every month but not at the end.
M: OK. I won’t do anything against your wishes.
(Text 6)
M: Hi, Rose. You’ve been looking for houses for months. Can’t you find one?
W: Well, I should be careful about choosing one. It’s a big step to buy a house. I’d rather take time now than be sorry later.
M: That’s right. There’re a lot of houses for sale near the university.
W: I’ve been there, very beautiful houses, but I prefer old but big houses. We need lots of rooms, you know. And I think I can get a better buy on an old house.
M: However, a cheap house means less modern conveniences. Why not get a new one?
W: Well, Jeff can remodern the old one. You know, he’s so skillful. Some of the new houses now have very small rooms. I wouldn’t want to spend the rest of my life in them.
M: Aren’t you tired of keeping so many rooms clean every day?
W: Not at all. Cleaning is a pleasure for me. Oh, here comes my bus. Bye!

M: Hi, Jane. It’s nice to see you again. I heard that you went to the United Kingdom during the vacation.
W: Yes. I paid a visit to London and attended a summer course in English.
M: Wow. It sounds so good. How long did you stay there?
W: Well, I went there on July 5th and came back on August 15th.
M: What about the course?
W: I think the course was well organized. The teachers were nice. They taught us to listen, speak, read and write in English, but it mostly focused on speaking. One interesting thing I found was that the English classes were different from ours because they were very free. You can sit anywhere you like in the classroom. You can ask the teacher questions at any time during the class, and you are welcome to share your ideas with the classmates and teachers. I really enjoy this kind of class.
M: How interesting! Maybe our teachers should try that.

W: Yes, I’d like to go on a sailing holiday this summer in Italy.

M: Well, it is quite expensive. Sailing holidays start at about three hundred pounds.
W: Yes, my friends went in August last year. They paid four hundred and fifty pounds each. The most I can pay is three hundred and eighty pounds.
M: Well, that should be enough. Would you like to be by the sea or a lake?
W: Well, I’d prefer a lake in the mountains.
M: Okay. The Aqua Center in north Italy will be best for you. That costs ￡370.
W: Okay. Can I pay by credit card? I haven’t got my checkbook.

M: Oh, no. What you need is a pair of strong and comfortable shoes.
W: What’s your suggestion?
M: Maybe you should buy him a pair of leather shoes.
W: Tom doesn’t like leather shoes.
M: Then, how about sports shoes? They are strong and comfortable.
W: It seems that is the only choice. All right. I’ll take your suggestion. How about this pair?
M: They are good.
(Text 10)
Well, generally speaking, we could say that there are four stages to culture shock. First of all, the “honeymoon” stage. Uh, to the visitor, everything seems new, different, and novel. The food, the surroundings, and the buildings. And it produces a feeling of excitement: a desire to look around, to experiment, and to explore.
The next stage is the “horror” stage, where the newness wears off, and the visitor sees the country from a different viewpoint, and often begins to criticize the country, the life, and values of the people.
The next stage, we could say, is the “humor” stage, where people begin to reflect back and laugh at their mistakes in the earlier stages.
And the final stage, we could say, is the “home” stage, where people begin to feel at home and enjoy living in that foreign country. 听力答案

universities.
W: Right. We think sports will enable the students to better face
life in the highly competitive society we are living in.
M: I quite agree. We should pay more attention to building up
strong bodies with healthy minds. Oh, Miss Taylor, what are
the most popular sports in Britain?

We call it soccer in England.
M: It seems to be a common topic of conversation.
W: Yes, in fact, I think apart from the weather, it's the thing
most talked about in England.

better start talking about the weather or a recent football
match. Is that the idea?

The secretary told me that Mr. Abel wanted to see me. I felt very nervous when I entered his office. He did not look up from his desk when I came in. I stood in front of his desk for a few minutes before he looked up at me with a smile. My heart was beating fast, for I seldom saw him smiling like that. After he asked me to be seated, he said that business was not very good. He told me that the company could not afford all the salaries and twenty people had left. I knew my turn had come. "I was trying my best to do my job, Mr. Abel," I said in a weak voice. "Don't interrupt," he said. "After discussing this with other managers, I have decided to add $ 50 to your salary monthly.”Then I realized why Mr. Abel had smiled like that.
