听力原文：W: Have you read the latest Tom Clancy's book？

M: No, I haven't. But I hear it's a best seller.

W: That's what I hear. I haven't read it either, but it has been on the New York Times' best seller list for three weeks now. I've been meaning to stop by a bookstore and get it.

M: I really like his books, but I usually wait until they come out in the paperback edition. I hate to pay the price of the hardback version.

W: Do you think they will make a movie out of this one？ The movies based on his other books have been very successful.

M: I wonder if their success is due to the nature of his hero.

W: Jack Ryan？

M: Yes. He is so "all American", just the type of person that we all think a good American should be.

W: I think you might be right. We see so many characters in books and movies that are anything but admirable that it is refreshing to have the here be a good, clean, honest family man.

M: I guess the excitement and intrigue he builds into his stories are another reason we all like to read them.

W: Maybe those are the reasons. At any rate, millions of people read every book he writes.

M: Including us.
