中级口语教程7Going Shopping Text A Gretel and Mrs Clark went shopping in the centre of London yesterday. "I'd like to know which store you like best in London, Mrs Clark , " Gretel said. "Now that's a difficult question," Mrs Clark replied. "I just haven't any idea which store I like best. There are so many huge stores in London. I suppose Selfridges must be the biggest. There's so much variety there. I can usually find what I'm looking for. Then there's Liberty's. It's such a lovely building. Harrods is very famous, too. It's such a smart store, I love all the big stores in London because you can walk round and nobody bothers you. Nobody tries to sell you anything-unless you want to buy something. Sometimes I go window-shopping , or just wander round a store and look at the things on display. The big stores are one of the sights of London. I went to the sales in January. That was one of the sights of London, too! My goodness! The crowds! But it was worth it. I bought some lovely things very cheaply. It was good fun, but very exhausting. Text B As she walked round the huge department store, Edith reflectde how difficult it was to choose a suitable Christmas present for her father. She wished that he was as easy to please as her mother, who was always delighted with perfume. Besides, shopping at th'ss time of the year was a most disagreeable experience : people trod on your toes , poked you with their elbows and almost knocked you over in their haste to get to a bargain ahead of you. Partly to have a rest, Edith paused in front of a counter where some attractive ties were on display. 'They are real silk' the assistant assured her, trying to tempt her. 'Worth double the price. ' But Edith knew from past experience that her choice of ties. hardly ever pleased her father. She moved on reluctantly and then, quite by chance, stopped where a small crowd of men had gathered round a counter. She found some good quality pipes on sale - and the prices were very reasonable. Edith did not hesitate for long: although her father only smoked a pipe occasionally, she knew that this was a present which was bound to please him. When she got home, with her small but well-chosen presentconcealed in her handbag, her parents were already at table having supper. Her mother was in especially cheerful mood. `Your father has at last decided to stop smoking,' she informed her daughter. Additional Information (1) JOAN: Yes, madam? Can I help you? MRS S: Oh yes, please, but you're just closing. aren't you? JOAN: Well , yes , we are , madam. The shop shuts in five minutes. MRS S: I shan't keep you long then. It was about some saucepans you had in your . window last week JOAN: Last week, madam?I really can't remember which ones you mean. What were they like? MRS S: Oh, they were lovely! Sort of imitation wood. dark brown colour. country-style you know, and the lids, if I remember rightly, had a sort of leaf pattern, or was it flowers? JOAN: That's strange. I don't recognise any of the ones we had from that description. Are you sure they were in this shop? MRS S: Oh, you must know the ones I mean. They were in a sale. A real bargain. Reduced to a quarter of the original price. I couldn't believe my eyeswhen I saw them. JOAN: I'm afraid the sales are over now, madam, and I know we sold out of all the saucepans. MRS S: I don't think you did, you know. At least, my neighbour, Mrs Cliffe, told me she saw some here only yesterday. JOZN: Well, it's all new stock in the window now. MRS S: May I just have a iook, to see if there's asything else? JOAN: Er, well, madam, as you know. we were just closing. MRS S: Yes , ye。

Alexander: Well, they’ve decided they’re going to fund the Smithsonian to create a hip-hop exhibition.Nick: A Hip- Hop exhibition in the Smithsonian? You mean THE Smithsonian in Washington DC?Alexander: One and the same!Now answer some questions…1. Alexander says: “i t seems that officials in the U.S. government have accepted hip hop as a significant form of music.” What does “accept” mean? “Accept” means “recognize;” so the US government has recognized hip hop as a form of music.2. Alexander says: “..they’ve decided they are going to fund the Smithsonian to create a hip-hop exhibition.” What does “fund” mean? “to fund” means to provide the money. The US Government will provide the money for the creation of the hip-hop exhibition.3. Alexander says: “One and the same!” What does he mean when he says “one and the same”? Alexander wants to emphasize that i t is the same museum and not any other.Now listen to the second part of the dialogue.Part 2Vanessa: I never thought I’d live to see that … hip hop going mainstream! Alexander: Exactly! How many of you know that hip hop got its start in the 70s, when DJs started separating the percussion break from disco songs…?Nick: And MCs at concerts started speaking to audiences to this beat. Actually that was right here in N.Y, in the Bronx.Vanessa: So the MCs invented hip-hop!Alexander: You bet they did! Musicians just set it to music. Vanessa:Well, hip hop may be popular today but it’s considered controversial. Nick: Yes, I know…parents especially think some lyrics promote violence and drugs. Alexander:That’s why this announcement came as a big surprise, to put it mildly, to most Americans…Vanessa:As a shock rather… and when is this exhibition going to open? Alexander:In about five years…I guess organizing an exhibition to showcase hiphop’s history is not easy business!Now answer some questions…。

英语中级听力lesson7原文文本
Woman: Good morning. Librarian: Morning, can I help you? Woman: Yes, I'd like to join the library. We're new to the district you see. Librarian: Certainly. Well all we need is some sort of identification with your name and address on it. Woman: Oh dear. We just moved, you see, and everything has my old address. Librarian: A driving licence, perhaps? Woman: No, I don't drive. Librarian: Your husband's would do. Woman: Yes, but his licence will still have the old address on it. Librarian: Perhaps you have a letter addressed to you at your new house? Woman: No, I'm afraid not. We've only been there a few days you see and no one's written to us yet. Librarian: What about your bank book? Woman: That's just the same. Oh dear, and I did want to get some books out this weekend. We're going on holiday to relax after the move, you see, and I wanted to take something with me to read. Librarian: Well, I'm sorry, but we can't possibly issue tickets without some form of identification. What about your passport? Woman: What? Oh yes, how silly of me. I've just got a new one and it does have our new address. I've just been to book our tickets so I have it on me. Just a minute. Here you are. Librarian: Thank you. Well, that's all right. Now if you'd like to go and choose your books your tickets will be ready for you when you come back to the desk to have them stamped out. Woman: Oh, thank you. Er, how many books am I allowed to take out? Librarian: You can take four books out at a time and you also get two tickets to take out magazines or periodicals. Newspapers, I'm afraid can't be taken out; they have to be read here. Woman: Oh that's fine. We have our own daily newspaper delivered to the house. Oh, do you have a record library? Some libraries do, I know. Librarian: Yes, we do. You have to pay a deposit of ￡5 in case you damage them. But that entitles you to take out two records at a time. We also have everything available on cassette if you prefer it. Cassettes seem to be much more popular than records lately. Woman: Oh yes, as a matter of fact, I would prefer cassettes but I won't take any out today. I'll leave it until we come back from our holidays. Could you show me where your history and biography sections are, please? Librarian: Yes, just over there to your right. If there's any particular book you want you can look it up in the catalogue, which you'll find just round the corner. Woman: Thank you. Oh, and how long am I allowed to keep the books for? Librarian: For three weeks. After that you must telephone to renew the books if you wish to keep them longer. Otherwise we charge 20p a day fine for each book. Woman: Oh dear. We're going away for six weeks. Can I renew them now? Librarian: I'm afraid not. You must do that at the end of three weeks. Someone else might want them you see. And in that case we have to ask you to return them. Woman: You mean, if someone wants them after my three weeks are up I have to bring them back? Librarian: Yes, but just telephone and we'll see what we can do. Woman: But I'm going to Tahiti. It would cost a fortune. Librarian: Well ... Woman: Oh, never mind. I'll leave it until we get back. It's not worth all the bother. I'll get some paperbacks in the airport. Well, thank you. I'm sorry I've been such a nuisance. Good morning. Librarian: Not at all. Good morning.

• Mr. H: And what about learning to understandl, again, you need practice in hearing the Spanish language spoken by Spanish speakers. There are Spanish speakers in London. Get one of them to read some extracts from a Spanish newspaper onto a cassette. Have you got a cassette recorder? • Mr. H: Yes. • Prof W: Then you want to listen and listen and listen to the recordings until you almost know them by heart, just as if you were learning to drive, you'd practice parking the car, over and over again, till you could do it perfectly. Learning to speak a language is a very hard business. You don't need a huge vocabulary. You need a small vocabulary that you can use really efficiently, and to be able to do that you need lots and lots of practice.

I don't know where my money goes.Tim: You need to tighten your belt Alice. Well, I'm fairly flush this month, want me to lend you some cash?Alice: Tim, would you?Tim: Sure, you know me, always willing to help a damsel in distress. There's only one small catch......V ocabulary:Rent (n, uncountable): amount of money you pay (usually every month) to live in a house or flat that belongs to someone elseA damsel in distress (humorous): a young woman who needs helpThere's a catch: There is a condition (usually something difficult or unpleasant). In this case Tim will lend Alice some money but she has to repay him in a way that he choosesA casino (n): a place where people can gamble (bet money) on the result of games with cards, dice or machinesGreyhound racing (n): a spectator sport where people watch dogs race and bet money on the result本单元的语言点是关于钱的习语，有时习语很难通过字面单词猜出其意义，看看下面的习语，你能猜出他们是什么意思吗？Idioms use language metaphorically rather than literally. If you paid 'through the nose' for something, it means you paid too high a price for it (the metaphorical meaning) not that you paid for something with money that came out of the middle of your face (the literal meaning).Idioms are also fixed groups of words so you can't change thewording of an idiom. For example, you can say 'That shop is a real rip off' to describe a shop that overcharges its customers but you can't say 'It's a real tear off'.Idioms -rich and poor:I'm so broke/I'm flat broke.I don't have any money.I don't have a bean.I don't have any money.You need to tighten your belt.You should try to spend less.He's flush (with cash).He's got a lot of money.She's rolling in it.She's very rich.Idioms -expensive and cheap:We really splashed out on our new car.We spent a lot of money on our new car.This dress cost me an arm and a leg.This dress was very expensive.This bag was dirt cheap.This bag wasn't expensive.I got this new top for a song.This blouse was very cheap.I can't believe the price of a cup of coffee here.
