听力原文：M: Excuse me, do you mind answering a few questions？

W: No.

M: Um firstly, do you ever eat fast food？

W: Yes, yes, I do.

M: What kind of food do you normally eat？

W: Oh, err, you know, burgers, sandwiches, the usual MacDonald's stuff, well sometimes a pizza.

W: Er, well Monday to Friday when I'm working, but not usually at the weekend.

M: And what time of the day do you eat fast food？

W: Well, at lunchtime, um, you know I sort of go out and get a burger or sandwich.

M: And what do you think of fast food？ Is it convenient？

听力原文：M: Oh, hello, Li Li. Come on in, and how've you been keeping recently？

W: Quite all right. Thanks, Dr. Francis. How's your project going？

M: Very smoothly, I should say. I'm playing a consultancy role, really. I've only been here in China for a month, but I'm already on very good terms with my colleagues in the Department of Computer Science. Well, I'm happy that you could come. Do sit down, please.

W: Dr. Francis, do you know I've got a chance to go to Cambridge in August？ I wonder if you could tell me something about Britain.

M: Certainly. Well, I was actually brought up in Scotland. Er...in fact, I've never been to Cambridge. But well...yes, I'm sure I can give you some useful tips. Now, what do you want to know, Li Li？

W: Things like weather. What's the usual temperature there？

M: Mmm, the temperature in Scotland is 22 or 23 degrees centigrade, on average, I think. But Cambridge would be warmer, around 25, I would guess, because it's down south.

W: Oh, that's nice. Do you know it is 34 here？ Last year it reached 39. By the way, where do you think I should stay？

M: Oh, that's important. You can, er... I suppose, stay in the college-owned fiats, which are often near where you have your classes, and some are even on the campus. That would certainly be convenient.

W: Yes, it would.

M: But it can also be a disadvantage because you are, in a sense, separated from ordinary society. You're a language teacher, and I think learning from society is a valuable experience.

W: Yes, yes, exactly. So what's the alternative？

M: Maybe finding an English host family. I know of a student Ali from the Middle East. He told me that he had learnt a lot by staying with a British family.

W: Thank you. I think it's quite a good suggestion. By the way, Dr. Francis, do you think I could...

听力原文：M: Hello, Marry. What's up with you？

W: Oh, Tom. It's my landlady again.

M: You're always in trouble. What is it this time？

W: You see, she left a note for me. Just read it.

M: Well, did you leave the front door open？

W: I honestly don't remember. I got back late from a party. Anyway, what does it matter？ It's all complaints in that house: first noise, then bathroom.

M: Well, in that case, why don't you look around for another place？

W: I've already started. I looked in the paper this morning, plenty of advertisements as usual, but must of the places are too far from school.

M: Look, why don't you come and share with us？

W: But surely there are four of you in the flat already, aren't there？

M: Yes, but, you know, Jane is leaving at the end of the month. She's got a job down south. There will be a spare room. It's rather small, but you can sleep there for the moment till you find a nice one.

W: That's a good idea. How many rooms do you have？

M: We have four bedrooms and a big living room.

W: What are the arrangements？

M: Oh, we share all expenses, of course, rent, light, and heating.

W: What about ford？

M: Oh, we each buy our own. It works out fine that way. And you can do any thing you like in your own room, but there is one thing...

W: what's that？

M: Don't leave the front door open. Strange people may wander in.

W: All right. I promise that won't happen again. By the way, when is Jane leaving？

M: Let me see... yes, this time next week.

W: Today is the 22nd, Tuesday, so she's leaving on the 29th. Well, I will move in one day after she leaves.

M: Yes, no problem. We will get ready by then.

W: Thanks a lot.

M: You're welcome.

B．Finding a place to live.

C．The parties she went to.

D．Her friend's house.

A: Hello, Mr．Kubat．I am glad to meet you here at the fair.

B: Likewise．Take a seat, please．How about a cup of tea？

A: Sure．Thank you．It seems your business is prosperous．There are many customers here.

B: Yes, it's not too bad．Our sales are going up year after year．And we still have a large potential production capacity.

A: Well, what do you think of choosing a commission representative or agent abroad to promote your sales？

B: That's a good idea．So far, we have several agents abroad.

A: We are willing to be your agent in Thailand for hand-held tools．What do you think？

B: That sounds good.

A : Then , what's your usual commission rate for your agents？

B: Usually, we give a commission of 3% to our agents.

A: 3% is too low, I think．You see, we have a lot of work to do in sales promotion such as advertising on radio or TV, printing booklets, leaflets, catalogues and so on．It all costs money．3% is not enough.

B: Don't worry．We'll allow you a higher commission rate if your sales score a substantial increase.

A: You mean to say.--

B: Now, if you sell US ＄2 million worth of hand-held tools annually, we can only allow 3% commission．If the annual turnover exceeds US ＄5 million, you can get 5% commission．What do you think of that？

A: It sounds OK．Then how do you pay the commission？

B: We may deduct the commission from the invoice value directly or remit it to you after payment.

A: All right．If it's okay, we would like to sign an agency agreement with you immediately.

B : Think it over．We hope to keep a good business relationship with you.

A: Thank you for your help.

M: At four! Right. Now, what's the weather like at this time of year？

W: Well, it's usually warm. But sometimes it turns very cold and wet. So don't forget to take what you may need with you. By the way, when are you going on this trip？

M: Oh, not until the middle of the month. The fifteenth, I think. Anything else you want to advise me？

听力原文：Interviewer: Could you tell me what you do for a living？

Teacher: Um, I work as a guitar teacher in a number of local schools.

Interviewer: How do you actually begin to teach somebody to play the guitar？

Teacher: Well, I should make it clear first that I teach mainly classical guitar, er, that is playing tunes on the guitar itself rather than just using the guitar to accompany a singer. The most important thing to start with I think is getting people to sit in the correct position, in that you need a small stool to put your left foot on, and then also to make sure that the pupil is holding the guitar correctly and that their hands are in the right position.

Interviewer: Do some people find that difficult though, to get their hands right on the guitar？

Teacher: Yes, yes, er, I think if you said to somebody now play these few notes on a guitar their technique would be all wrong. The things you have to learn don't come naturally at all. They are something you have to learn to do.

Interviewer: Is it easier to teach younger children or easier to teach older children？ What's the best age to start learning the guitar？

Teacher: In my experience I think that about 10 or 11 is quite a good age to start; it is possible to start younger; I've had one or two pupils who've started about the age of 7 or 8 and it's been quite successful but not always, There are the usual problems with young children keeping their concentration and practising. No, I would have said about 10 or 11. Adults too are interesting. I think children have an advantage over adults; they're often more physically able; they have more ability in their hands and fingers than adults. For this reason they often find it easier.

Interviewer: Is there anything you find really frustrating about teaching children though？

Teacher: Well, occasionally you come across children who are doing it because their parents want them to do it and they don't want to do it, and that can be a very frustrating situation in that they have got no motivation at all.

Interviewer: But on the whole you enjoy teaching children？

Teacher: Oh yes, yes, I do. I find it very rewarding actually, about 90 percent of the time. I would be less than honest if I said all the time. sometimes when you've got one be- ginner after another, Maybe they haven' t done as much practice as you would want them to, then you find your mind wandering a bit, thinking of all the things you could be doing but it is rewarding and I do enjoy it.

Chris teaches children the guitar ______.

A．in one school

B．privately

C．in his free time

D．in more than one school

听力原文：W: So, what do you think of this place？

M: Well, I like the location, but it seems a bit darker than the other flat, don't you think？

W: Yes, you might be right, but that's because the walls are painted a darker colour, right？

M: You have a point there. If we can paint them a brighter colour…The rooms are not quite as spacious.

W: That's true, but there is an extra room. We could use that for storing items that we don't often use and our bicycles.

M: Good idea. There aren't so many stairs to climb either. As usual the key thing is money. This place is a little more expensive than the other one. Can we stretch our budget this far？

W: I think we can. Actually, I'm thinking less about the rent and more about the time we'll save getting to and from university.

M: Yes. We've both got part-time jobs, so we won't have any financial difficulties. We'll just save a little less, that's all.

W: What do you think of the landlady？ She seems OK to me.

M: Yeah, she seems fine. Let's ask her about the painting. We can offer to do it ourselves and pay for the paint. I don't see how she could object to that.

W: Are you any good at painting？

M: My middle name is Picasso!
