高考英语听力材料原文
刚接触新内容的`时候,你会听得非常模糊,有很多声音抓不住,因此无法记住。所以英语力第一个阶段的训练就是“模糊的听”。为了帮助大家,我分享了一些英语听力材料,希望能帮到大家!
(Text 1)
W: What a memory I have! I did write down the mobile number on a sheet of paper when I answered the phone this morning, even that Mr. Smith’s email address, and now it is nowhere to be found!
M: Don’t worry. I’ll be seeing him in an hour. I can ask him for his email address when I see him.
W: That’s very kind of you, Mr. Baker.
(Text 2)
W: This machine has so many buttons. I can’t figure out which one makes it.
M: Well, you’d better read the instructions first. Pressing the buttons improperly may cause the machine to break down.
W: Oh, I see.
(Text 3)
M: What’s the best way to downtown?
W: If you’re in a hurry, you should take a taxi. But it’s kind of expensive.
M: I’m in no particular hurry.
W: Well, in that case, take an airport bus then. It will cost you only about $5.
M: That cannot be a better idea.
(Text 4)
W: Jack, have you got the book I asked you to borrow the other day?
M: Sorry, I haven’t.
W: How come?
M: I couldn’t find time to go to the library.
(Text 5)
W: Could you do me a real favor, please?
M: Yes, of course.
W: I’ve arranged to meet my friend Tony, but I’m really engaged now. I was wondering if you could go along and meet him for me.
M: Oh, yes, certainly!
(Text 6)
M: Can I help you?
W: Yes, well, I bought this tie last week for my husband’s birthday, and er...well he doesn’t like it. Could I change it for something else, such as a shirt or a hat?
M: Certainly, madam, provided that it hasn’t been worn, and if you have the receipt.
W: Yes, here it is.
M: OK, er... this tie looks as if it were worn. I’m afraid I can’t put that back on the shelf.
W: Oh, that’s a pity.
(Text 7)
M: Morning, Sue. Did you enjoy your holiday in the country?
W: Yes, thanks. We had a great time. And some friends went with us.
M: Where did you stay? In a hotel?
W: No. We camped in the mountains, near Snowtown. We cooked all our meals over an open fire.
M: Sounds wonderful. Was the weather good?
W: The sun shone nearly every day and it didn’t rain at all.
M: Did you like the people there?
W: Yes, they were great. We met some farmers and had tea in their houses.
M: When did you get back? Last night?
W: No, this morning. You’ll think we were mad. We got up at 4:30, left at 5 and arrived here at 9.I’m so tired. What about you? Did you have a good weekend?
M: Yes, but I didn’t do much. I just stayed at home. The weather was terrible.
(Text 8)
M: You see the list of books for this course?
W: Yes, Dr. Downs said he expects us to have the first five on the list. He is going to discuss them in detail.
M: Are you going to buy them?
W:I don’t know. These books are expensive. And I don’t have a lot of money on me.
M: How about sharing them with me?
W: Sounds good.
M: Let’s do this. I will buy three and you buy two of them.
W:I would rather do it this way: we pay fifty-fifty for the books now. And at the end of the course you can take the books you find more interesting and I will take the ones I like.
M: What if we both like the same books?
W: Come on, we are not going to argue over that, are we?
M:I was just joking. It’s definitely a better idea.
W: Then let’s get the books as soon as possible.
(Text 9)
M: Oh, no! I’m supposed to meet her at seven sharp. What time is it now?
W: Six thirty.
M: I’d better get ready.
W: Where are you going?
M: Haven’t made up our minds yet. Maybe to a restaurant, or perhaps to the movies first.
W: Why don’t you go and see Citizen Kane at the Classic Film Festival? It’s supposed to be great.
M: Oh, maybe we will. Psycho is also playing. I’ve heard it’s really good, too.
W: If you like horror films with lots of blood. Personally I don’t. Well, I really should be going. Do you want to go swimming tomorrow?

W: Sure. That’ll be fine.
M: Oh, there’s the phone. It must be Tracy.
W : Well, I’d better be going then. Have a good time tonight.
M: Thanks. I’ll ta lk to you tomorrow.
(Text 10)
Everybody here is very kind to me, but there are times when I think of home and get rather sad. I sometimes get a little tired of English coo king. Once a week I go to Soho. Soho is a part of London where there are all sorts of restaurants, French, Italian, Greek, Spanish, Indian, and Chinese. So when I’m tired of English cooking, I go to one of the Soho restaurants. Sometimes I even have a bottle of wine! Wine isn’t cheap in England. It isn’t something we drink every day.
English people do not talk as much as we do. I’ve often traveled by train and nobody has spoken to me during the journeys. I know one Englishman who is unusual, he speaks seven languages. He can also be silent in seven languages! But I’ve found one way to make him talk. He’s interested in mountain climbing. If I ask him about climbing, he’s a lways ready to talk.
1.W:Excuse me,where is the Bell Museum?
M:Oh,it's not far away from here.You can walk.
W:Yes?
M:Go straight along this road.Then turn left...No,right.Turn right at the first turning.
W:Turn right?
M:Yes,Keep walking till the crossroads,then turn left .You'll see a theatre on the righ
W:A theatr
M:Yes.Beside the theatre,there is a side street.
W:Do I take the street?
M:Right.Walk to the end of the street and turn left again.
Then you'll see a church on the left.Next to the church is the museum.
W:Oh,this is not easy.I'll try.
M:Good luck.
W:Thank you very much.
M:You'll welcome.
2.M:Hi,Jane.It's nice to see you again.I heard that you went to the U.S.during the vacation.
W:Yes,I went to New York to attend a summer course in English.
M:Wow.You were lucky.How long did you stay there?
W:About 50 days.I went there on July 5th and came back on August 25th.
M:Where did you live in New York?
W:Oh,I lived with an American family,the Smiths.
They were very kind people.Shortly after I arrived,we became good friends.
And,living in their house,I could speak English with them every day.
Besides,I didn't need to worry about my daily three meals.
They looked after that .
M:How nice!And how about the course?
W:The course was also very good.The teachers were nice.
They taught us to listen,speak,read and write in English,but it was mostly speaking.
One interesting I found was that the American classes are different from our classes here because they are 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 class.I really like this kind of class.
M:How interesting!Maybe our teacher should try that.
3.M:Well,Stella?Why do you look unhappy?
W:Oh,Bill,I have just had a quarrel with Mr.Philips.
W:Mr.Philips!What on earth was it about?
W:Well,I have made three bad mistakes so far this week.
Today I forgot to give him an important message,so he got really angry with me.
M:But I don't understand.You are usually very careful and never make mistakes.
W:I'm just so tired.I don't know what I'm doing.
M:Why?Have you been going to bed late these days?
W:No.I'm usually in bed at about eleven.But I've been woken up at half past four every morning.
And then I can't go back to sleep again.
M:Why?
W:It's my new neighbor,the milkman next door.
He has to get up at half past four and he always turns te radio on loud.
M:Ask him to turn it down then.
W:It's difficult.I don't know him yet.
M:If you don't want to see him,write him a letter.
W:Do you think it's good idea?
M:Yes,I do.I'll help you with the letter.
W:OK.Let's try.
4.W:Can I talk to you for a moment,Tom?
M:Of course,Julia.Sit down.What is it?
W:I've decided to leave.
M:Leave?
W:Yes?
M:Oh,no.Is it because we're moving out of London?
W:Well,yes.But there are other reasons.
M:I see.You've never liked working here.
W:No,no.I've enjoyed working here,but...
M:But what?
W:Well,I haven't had time for other things.
I've worked here for four years.And I'd like to do something different.
M:What do you mean,something different?
W:I want to travel.You know,I have never been to other countries.
M:Haven't you?
W:No,I haven't.I want to live abroad and learn to speak a different language.
M:Well,what can I say?I'm really sorry.But I understand.
W:Thank you Tom.
5.Good morning,Ladies and Gentleman.
Welcome to our school.My name is Andrew Brown.
I am a history teacher.I'll give you a quick introduction to the school before I show you around.
Our school is called a "free school".That means that the pupils are free to choose what and how they want to learn.
The school opens at 9a.m.,but the children can arrive when they like.
Most of them are in school by ten.
Between nine and ten most people are in the living room and the kitchen downstairs.
Some of the children haven't had much breakfast,so there is a lot of eating,tea_drinking and talking.
This is a time when children and teachers can work out what they are to do for the day.
Now if you look through the door of that big room you will see those children reading and drawing there.
Some have chosen to do maths.They are on the third floor with Miss Green.
Four of the older boys are now on the way to the Cardrome to have their driving lessons.
Several children are in the kitchen helping Miss Cabell with lunch.
The children take turns doing this.They all enjoy doing it.
After lunch it's someone else's job to do the washing-up.
This job is unpopular and not many of them like to do it.
After lunch the children go on with what they've been doing until 4:30.
On Monday and Thursdays the school is also open in the evenings until 9:00p.m..
On Wednesday afternoon there is a school meeting.
On Friday we sometimes take the children to a cinema or a museum.
The school is also open every weekend for those children who want to come.
6.Good morning everybody.My topic for today is "Early Money."
I'm going to tell you something about money used in the early days.
To be honest,we know little about how early people came to use money,but we do know some of the things which have been used as money.
In some parts of Asia,tea was used for money.The American Indians used nuts and other things.
Perhaps the mos common money of all was an animal found some places today,cows are still used as a kink of money.
So you see,things highly valued by everybody may serve as money.
The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money.
Oh,sorry,you don't know the word?Well,it is spelled C-O-I-N.
Here are some coins of the past.You can come over and have a look.
