It’s a second-hand bike, but it’s in good condition.Text 2W: Don’t stay up too lat e chatting with friends, Jimmy. You have to go to school early in the morning.M: Okay. I’m done chatting, but I have a couple of chapters to read before bed.Text 3M: What would you want to do if you were not working as a lawyer?W: I don’t know. Teachi ng, probably. I like to work with kids.M: Me too.Text 4M: Aunt Lucy, can’t we at least give you a hand with the kitchen? It’s a lot of work for one person. W: That’s very kind of you, Jack. But I’ve hired a girl called Sarah. She’s coming soon and will do most of the work.Text 5W: I’m so sorry I shouted at you yesterday. I feel awful.M: It’s all right. I know you’ve been under a lot of pressure lately.Text 6M: Hello, this is Richard Brown. I’d like to make an appointment to see Doctor Ross.W: Certainly. What seems to be the problem?M: Well, I’d like to have my regular medical examination.W: Fine. Now, it’s Monday today. When would you be available to come in to see Doctor Ross? M: Any day next week in the morning would be great.W: How about next Wednesday or Thursday at ten o’clock?M: Next Thursday sounds fine to me.W: Okay, we’ll see you next Thursday, Mr. Brown. Goodbye.Text 7M: I’m going on Thompson’s show. How do I look?W: Your red tie…M: What’s wrong with it?W: Well, red was the color of last year. Now it’s light blue. Fashion experts say the light color makes a man look confident and worthy of trust.M: But I like red.W: I know, but you’d better follow the fashion as you are having an interview on TV.Text 8W: Mike, did you just throw the rest of that bread away?M: Yeah. It was quite a big one, and I couldn’t finish it.W: You know you shouldn’t waste food. Do you know how much of the world’s food is wasted each year?M: Uh… I don’t know.W: The figure is 1.3 billion tons of food, which is enough to feed a billion hungry people. Wheredo you think all this food waste comes from?M: Well, restaurants, I imagine.W: No. Restaurants do not contribute most to food waste. In Europe, 53% of food waste comes from households, which amounts to about 88 million tons of food waste a year.M: Wow. I can’t even believe it.W: A high school student in America has started a campaign on the social media, persuading people to stop wasting food. Up to now, the food waste has been reduced by 25% in her city. Text 9M: Atherton Brothers.W: Good morning. Is that Mr. Bill Atherton?M: Speaking. How can I help?W: My flat needs painting, and I wonder whether you’d be able to do the work.M: I’m sure we’d be able to help. But let me take dow n a few details.W: Yes, of course.M: Well, firstly, how did you hear about us? From our advertisement?W: Not really. It was my friend May Wilson. You did some excellent work for her last year.M: Oh yes. That was in Church Hill, Arnside. Lovely lady!W: Yes, she is.M: And what’s your name and phone number, please?W: It’s Hillary Pemberton. And my number is 8799-1130.M: Right. And do you live in Church Hill, Arnside as well?W: No, actually, it’s 39 West Park, Flat 5.M: Oh, right. It’s over the road I seem to remember. Quite difficult to get to.W: Yes, it’s at the back of the city library.M: So, I’ll come to your flat at about ten in the morning tomorrow if it’s okay with you.W: Excellent. I’ll be waiting for you then. See you tomorrow morning.M: Goodbye.Text 10W: Thank Mr. Williams for inviting me back. I’d love to share with you my life experiences after graduation. Well, I graduated from here in 2001. When I was thrown into the job market, finding a job was not difficult. Most of my classmates found good jobs in big cities. If I were born a decade later, things might have been totally different. I finally accepted a job with my current employer, and now work as a translator. I won’t say my job is not demanding. Sometimes I’m kept very busy working late into the night. And I also have to travel to other cities to attend some conferences several times a year. But I must admit, I’m happy with what I’m doing, which is related to what I learned at university. That’s why I haven’t changed jobs for t he last decade and a half. In recent years, I have been thinking about trying other things, such as running a coffee shop or a bookstore. But I haven’t really set out to do that because any decision I make might create challenges for my family. I got married five years after I left college. For me, family comes first. Today, you college students are facing a totally different time from what we were presented with ten years ago. Obviously, there are difficulties, but chances exist, and you’ll have hope of leading a successful life.。

◆◆听力原文一◆◆Text 1M: Know what?I couldn’t get back into my apartment and had to stay at a hotel last night.W: How did that happen? Did you lose your keys?M: No, I left them in the apartment and my wife was on a business trip.Text 2M: Wow, so many choices and so many people. So, what kind of film do you want to see?W: It’s up to you, but nothing too violent, please.Text 3M: How was your trip to London?W: It was fantastic.I visited a lot of places, churches, museums and the royal palaces, and the weather was fine.Horrible traffic, though.Text 4W: How much time do we have before the conference? We don’t have to hurry, do we?M: Don’t worry.It’s seven thirty now. We still have an hour and a half. It takes only thirty minutes to get there.Text 5M: Hey, did you see Ann in the office this morning?W: Yes, but why did she have such a long face?M: I’m not sure.I heard she failed to get promoted.Text 6M: What about the problems I’ve been having?W: Not serious. Take some medici ne and you will get a better night’s sleep. M: Thank you. How should I take the medicine?W: Take one pill about thirty minutes before you go to bed.M: How long should I take them?W: Thirty days.M: Is there anything else I can do?W: Don’t worry so much about things at work.M: Should I stay home from work?W: No, it’s not necessary. Just remember to stay calm.Text 7W: You’re late!M: Yes, I’m really sorry. I had to wait for ages for the bus.W: Why didn’t you drive?M: Ah, well, I’ve sold my car.W: Oh, are you getting a new one?M: No,I’m not getting another car.I’ve decided to live without one.W: Wow, what made you do that?M: I think there are too many cars and this town is already far too polluted. W: Well, that’s true, but a car is useful.M: I don’t think so, not in the city center anyway.I can never find anywhere to park and you spend most of the time sitting in traffic jams.W: But how are you going to get to work?M: I’m thinking of getting a bicycle.W: Don’t you think bicycles are dangerous?M: Not really.I don’t think they’re as dangerous as cars.W: Well,I couldn’t do without my car. I have to take the children to school every day.M: I don’t think children get enough exercise these days.They should walk to school.W: Okay, I see what you mean.Text 8M: Hey,Heather.Can I sit here?W: Yeah, sure, Jonathan.How’s your day?M: Good.Say, are you planning your summer travels?W: Well, not yet.I was just reading a story about this woman Alan Wilson, who climbed up Mount Qomolangma.M: Yeah,I read that too. A rather extraordinary experience, isn’t it? Ninety six days!She is actually a graduate of our college, class of 2012.W: Oh, really?So Jonathan, what amazing thing have you done?M: Well,I just went cycling across South America.W: You didn’t.M: I did, just last year before I entered the graduate school. It was such a brilliant time, four months on the road and enjoying wonderful scenery in the country, in towns and in cities all along the way. I got a bit tired, though.W: Sounds great, hmm, maybe I should think seriously about my big life adventure, like taking a long walk across a national park.M: Wow, let me know if you need someone to go with you.Text 9W: Hi,Matt. May I ask you a few questions?M: Certainly Julian, what do you want to know?W: I’m doing a study on the spending habits of students in our school. I’m writing a paper for my social studies course.M: That sounds interesting!W: To begin with, how much money do you get from your parents a month? M: I get about five hundred dollars.W: How do you spend your money?M: I spend about three hundred dollars on food, you know how I like to eat. W: Yes, what about the rest of the money?M: Well,I spend on shows, about thirty dollars a month. Games, uh, for rental of tennis, court and balls, about fifty dollars. I do spend some one on things like reading material and the rest I save.W: What about clothes?M: My mother buys them for me.W: Thanks a lot,Matt!M: You’re welcome!Text 10W: Hello, everyone. I’m very glad to be here to talk to you. People need to feel secure and comfortable, so they can be creative.Well designed workplaces often create environments that make employees better thinkers. So today, I’ll talk about how to design workplaces that inspire creativity.I hope you can find it useful. First, the color of the office walls.Decorate your office with green.Other bright colors such as light blue and yellow can also increase creativity. Calmer colors help us concentrate. Green also reminds us of nature, which may help us to relax.Avoid red when you are choosing a color.While it can give us a feeling of energy, it also affects our ability to analyze information. Then let’s turn to lighting. Lighting is also important.Too dark and workers can feel sleepy, well, if it is too bright, it can make them feel anxious. The best kind of lighting is natural light.It makes us happier and more productive.When it comes to artificial lighting, warm colors are the best. But if we need to concentrate, a bluer light is better. Space is another important matter. A company might want to develop a variety of spaces in an office, so staff can find privacy if needed, but also work in open areas for creative thinking.◆◆听力原文二◆◆Text 1W: Steve, I think we have gone off, of course. We’ve been cycl ing for an hour and there’s no beach in sight.M: I don’t think so. I’ve been checking the map. Across this part to the international hotel and the beach’s one mile from there.Text 2M: Nancy, are you having a big Christmas dinner at your house this year? W: Actually, I plan to spend Christmas at a homeless shelter with some friends. We just want to do something for the people there.Text 3W: Oh, no, I think we’ve just missed the bus.M: How can that be? It says here that the bus’s arriving at ten fi fty five. My watch says we’re five minutes ahead of time. Wait a minute! The town hall clock is striking eleven!Text 4M: There used to be a bookstore on the corner of Lear Road and Nelson Street. Is it still there?W: Not any more. It’s a restaurant now. The bookstore has moved to Huntington Road, just next to the shopping centre.Text 5W: Would you pick up some milk and eggs from the supermarket?M: Sure, do you need anything else?W: No, oh, wait! Get some bread too. We don’t have any for breakf ast tomorrow.Text 6W: What can I do for you?M: I’d like to return these books.W: Okay, um. What happened to this book?M: I dropped it and the cover tore off. Sorry!W: Well, I’m afraid you’ll have to pay a fine for the damage.M: How much?W: Three dollars.M: That’s not too bad.W: You can pay it now or at the end of the month.M: I’ll pay it now.Here you are.Text 7W: Can I help you?M: Yes, I’m looking for a gift for my daughter’s birthday, and I want something special.W: Right, daughters are Daddy’s little girls. We have all kinds of sweet things that are specially designed for young girls. What about this set of heart shaped tea cups and saucers? Every time she pours a drink into the cup, a heart appears. The set includes six different colored tea cups and saucers. The price is fifty six dollars ninety cents.M: It looks quite good. What’s that bag over there?W: It’s an apple-tree-to-be gift set. It has everything needed to grow an apple tree—tree seed, pot, growing medium and directions.M: Oh, this is a great idea. Many years later, it will grow into a big apple tree in the garden, and it will always remind her of this special birthday.W: Yeah, yeah, isn’t it great?M: How much is it?W: Twenty four dollars ninety five cents.M: I’ll take the apple tree set.Text 8W: Karl, don’t you think you should take a break? You haven’t gone on a holiday for the last two years.M: I would like to, Susan, but it is not possible. There is too much work.W: But you look too tired. You need a break.M: I know, but as long as they don’t hire more people, my chances are slim.W: Why don’t they hire more people?M: Because they want to keep costs down.W: Have you discussed this with the manager?M: Well, I did have a word with him last month, but I don’t think thathelped much.W: In that case, you should consider changing jobs.M: I have been thinking about it for a while. You would let me know if you find any positions available, wouldn’t you?W: Of course, but you should also look for wanted ads.M: I’ve already done that, but I haven’t yet found a job opening that suits my skills.W: Don’t lose hope.You will find a good job soon.Text 9M: Amy, how are you doing?W: Oh, hi Stewart.School is so crazy these days and when I’m not at school, I’m at work.M: Hey,listen!

It will be over at around ten thirty and you’ll be home half an hour e on!W: Oh, okay. Where do we meet for the dinner?M: At the Chinese resta urant on Jackson street.

So, what does Kate like doing? That might help us choose something.W: She seems to enjoy listening to music, reading novels, and going to the movies.M: Maybe we could get her a concert ticket. What do you think?W: That's a good idea. But we don't know what concert she likes.M: Jane can help us. She knows Kate very well.W: You're right.

Thanks for your help.Text 10M: Good morning, everybody. Before we start the class today, I need to give you some information about our field trip on the 27th of May. As you know, we're spending the day at The Science Museum in London. A coach will pick us up in the school car park. We'll leave at 8 o'clock, so plan to be there at least fifteen minutes before that, 7:45 at the latest. You'd better set your alarms for 6:30, okay? If you've visited The ScienceMuseum before, you'll know that it's enormous, and we can't possibly see everything in one day. The Welcome Wing has three galleries which deal only with contemporary science. We're going to have a guided tour of one of them. We've ordered lunch at the café, so we'll all meet up there at 12:30. And don't be late. We have to go to the cinema at 1:15. I think that's all for now. Oh, one last thing. Check out The Science Museum website before we go. The more you read about it, the more interesting the visit will be.【第二次】Text 1W: Nice bike! When did you get it?M: My brother gave it to me as a birthday gift last month.

I know you've been under a lot of pressure lately.Text 6M: Hello, this is Richard Brown. I'd like to make an appointment to see Doctor Ross.W: Certainly. What seems to be the problem?M: Well, I'd like to have my regular medical examination.W: Fine. Now, it's Monday today.

M: Next Thursday sounds fine to me.W: Okay, we'll see you next Thursday, Mr. Brown. Goodbye. Text 7M: I'm going on Thompson's show. How do I look?W: Your red tie…M: What's wrong with it?W: Well, red was the color of last year. Now it's light blue.

How can I help?W: My flat needs painting, and I wonder whether you'd be able to do the work.M: I'm sure we'd be able to help. But let me take down a few details.W: Yes, of course.M: Well, firstly, how did you hear about us? From our advertisement?W: Not really. It was my friend May Wilson. You did some excellent work for her last year.M: Oh yes. That was in Church Hill, Arnside. Lovely lady!W: Yes, she is.M: And what's your name and phone number, please?W: It's Hillary Pemberton.

I'll be waiting for you then. See you tomorrow morning.M: Goodbye.Text 10W: Thank Mr. Williams for inviting me back. I'd love to share with you my life experiences after graduation. Well, I graduated from here in 2001. When I was thrown into the job market, finding a job was not difficult. Most of my classmates found good jobs in big cities. If I were born a decade later, things might have been totally different. I finally accepted a job with my current employer, and now work as a translator. I won't saymy job is not demanding. Sometimes I'm kept very busy working late into the night. And I also have to travel to other cities to attend some conferences several times a year. But I must admit, I'm happy with what I'm doing, which is related to what I learned at university. That's why I haven't changed jobs for the last decade and a half. In recent years, I have been thinking about trying other things, such as running a coffee shop or a bookstore. But I haven't really set out to do that because any decision I make might create challenges for my family. I got married five years after I left college. For me, family comes first. Today, you college students are facing a totally different time from what we were presented with ten years ago. Obviously, there are difficulties, but chances exist, and you'll have hope of leading a successful life.。

Today I'm going to talk about small talk--that is, short conversations people often have with strangers they meet, such exchanges occurring at bus stops, on buses, on a waiting line, almost anywhere that strangers gather close together. As a matter of fact, these short conversations are a good way for people to say hello and express friendliness. Such conversations usually cover a wide range of topics. The topics include weather, customer service, movies, TV shows, local sports or latest news. But you should always keep it in your mind that private questions about salaries, family life, religious beliefs and politics should be avoided during these conversations. Besides, it's better to ask open-ended questions. If you ask visitors “Do you like our city? ” Th ey may say simply "Yes ". On the other hand, if you ask, "What do you think of our city? " They would have more freedom to answer it. This kind of question also shows that you're interested in them. If you appear interested in what people are saying, they feel more comfortable talking with you.。
