听力录音稿 　　(Text 1) 　　W：Guess what?I saw the famous rock singer in a downtown restaurant today． 　　M：Really?I had thought he had gone to San Francisco for his concert tour． 　　(Text 2) 　　M：Honey, do you think it’s time to prepare dinner?The children are hungry． 　　W：OK, I’ll do it after I finish the report the boss gave me． 　　(Text 3) 　　M：Sorry, Mum．I got up to answer the phone and broke one of your plates, but at least it wasn’t your new lamp． 　　W：Be careful next time． 　　(Text 4) 　　W：What a lovely cat you’ve got．Did you buy it? 　　M：No, my aunt gave me for my birthday． 　　W：Oh, since I lost my cat I haven’t seen such a lovely one． 　　(Text 5) 　　W：Shall we go to the shop before taking a rest? 　　M：I suppose not．Let’s take a rest, and then we take a walk．We can do the shopping before having dinner． 　　W：OK．I don’t need to get dressed now, then． 　　(Text 6) 　　W：John．As you know, we’re looking for someone working in our Communications Department．But why should we hire you? 　　M：Well, I have a degree in marketing．(6)And I have some experience．Last year, I worked as an assistant marketing director at a company and had a training course in media relations． 　　W：OK．So tell me what your biggest weakness as a worker is． 　　M：Um,(7)I tend to be a bit of workaholic．When I was working, I had to work 12 or 15 hours a day in the beginning, and I have to say that I loved it． 　　W：Well, thank you for coming today．We’ll be in touch． 　　(Text 7) 　　W：Hi．Are you a neighbour around here? 　　M：Yes．This is the street where my mother gave birth to me．(8)I’ve lived here for three quarters of a century except the three years spent flghting in Europe． 　　W：So you know every corner of the street, don’t you? 　　M：Exactly．Are you a newcomer here? 　　W：No, not really．But it’s true that I am a stranger here．(9)I’m looking for my client’s office．It must be somewhere in the neighbourhood．It’s 145 Renew Street． 　　M：It must be the new office complex．Look, you go down the street for three blocks and you will catch the smell of flesh bread．(10)You’ll find Joe’s Bakery and Deli on your right．The building is right beside Joe’s． 　　W：Oh．Thank you very much． 　　(Text 8) 　　M：(11)Aren’t you going to say“hello”to me? 　　W：Er…I beg your pardon, sir? 　　M：I said．“Aren’t you going to say‘hello’to me?” 　　W：(11)David!My God!Is it really you? 　　M：Well, I’m not a ghost． 　　W：I’m so glad to see you．(11)It’s been such a long time．How are you? 　　M：I’m fine, and you? 　　W：I’m just wonderful．God, time goes by so quickly!Are you going to the air quality conference in Chicago? 　　M：I am．And I’m really glad to see you．Just last night I found your name in the conference materials, but it didn’t come to my mind that we would meet on the plane． 　　W：I’m afraid I haven’t had time to look at the conference materials very carefully．I had no idea you were coming, but I am certainly glad to see you．I was feeling very nervous about going there without friends． 　　M：I can imagine．(12)My English has gotten not so fluent since I returned from the States, so I’m rather nervous myself．But I saw that you’re giving the most important talk at the conference． 　　W：Frankly speaking, I’m scared to death about it． 　　M：I’m just giving a talk in one of the workshop sections, and that’s stressful enough． 　　W：But your English is much better than mine． 　　M：But you’re now the Director of the Air Quality Institute, so(13)you must know the technical terms． 　　W：(13)Maybe．But I still can’t understand totally a lot of technical terms in my field． 　　(Text 9) 　　W：Hmm…Here’s people moving house．I think that’s pretty stressful． 　　M：Well．I think it’s not so bad．But I do think that going to the dentist is stressful． 　　W：Oh, so do I!(15)It’s stressful because you have no control． 　　M：That’s right．Look at this one．This poor boy sitting in an exam．(16)I think exams are the most stressful．Sometimes you just can’t think of anything to write． 　　W：Yes, I agree with you there．What about these people here? 　　M：Mmm…I’m not sure．They seem to be in a hurry, don’t they?I think being late is stressful． 　　W：That’s true．It can be terrible, especially when you’re late for something important． 　　M：Like an interview．Look at this picture here：here’s someone in an interview．Do you think interviews are stressful? 　　W：No．(17)I think they’re quite exciting：a challenge． 　　M：Oh, I hate interviews． 　　(Text 10) 　　W：Career officers around the country are reporting that more women are applying for jobs which have traditionally been held by men．Women’s career choices are changing．There are many reasons．(18)A very important one is the media, radio and television．Girls see a popular young actress playing a car mechanic, for example, and this makes them think－Well, why not?Why couldn’t I become a car mechanic, or a plumber, or an electrician?Erm, another reason is that career officers, like myself are trying very hard to make both sexes aware of all the job options, including the non-traditional ones．Non-traditional job choices for women, for example, would be things like plumbing, gardening and car mechanics．For men, housekeeping would be quite a non-traditional career choice．And of course I’m not saying that things are changing overnight．Most girls still choose stereotyped jobs, for example,(19)a survey of Scottish school-leavers showed that 75％of girls still choose traditional women’s jobs like nursing, clerical work or working in shops．But they’re changing．It is very important that people change their attitudes．Because at the moment,(20)there are fewer and fewer children leaving school in Britain．This means that we’re going to need women, more and more in the work force．But women are not going to be qualified unless attitudes－both men’s and women’s－change dramatically．At the moment, the change isn’t big or fast enough, and in some cases Britain is seriously lagging behind other countries．
