听力原文：W: No luck then, John？

M: I'm afraid not, ma' am. Not yet, anyhow. We're still checking on stolen ears.

W: Mm.

M: Where do you think he'll head for, ma' am？

W: Well, he definitely won' t try to leave the country yet. He may try to get a passport, and he'll certainly need clothes and money. He'll probably get in touch with Cornfield for those, so I expect he'll make for Birmingham.

M: Right. I'll put some men on the house.

W: Yes, do that. Mind you, I doubt if he'll show up there in person. Hammond' s no fool, you know. I should think he'll probably use a telephone.

M: What about his wife？

W: Mm. I shouldn' t think he'll go anywhere near her--though he might get her to join him after he's left the country. And when he does leave, he probably won't use a major airport, either. So you' d better notify the coastguard, and keep an eye on the private airfields.

M: Right, ma' am. I'd better get his description circulated.

W: Yes. He may change his appearance, of course. And John--be careful. He could be armed. And if I know Hammond, he certainly won' t give himself up without a fight.
