听力原文: Montreal, Quebec-William Murphy had fifty-six cents in the bank, lived in a small room, and was unemployed. But, he had one thing going for him. He was honest. And that honesty paid off for him yesterday. He received a$1.2-million check for returning a lost lottery ticket to the owner.

Last Sunday morning, Murphy found a wallet while he was walking down the street. He picked it up and looked inside. He found ID cards, $18.00, and six lottery tickets. He checked the fication and saw that the wallet belonged to Mr. Jean- Guy Lavigueur.

He put the wallet in the mailbox but he kept the lottery tickets. He thought, "Maybe, I'll win $10.00 or something."

Later that evening, he checked the newspaper. He had the winning lottery ticket and it was worth $ 7,650,267.00. He was so surprised and almost had a heart attack!

For a minute, he thought about keeping the ticket but then decided to return it to Mr. Lavigueur. He remembered the address from the ID cards so he went to the house and knocked on the door.

Yves, Jean - Guy's French-speaking son answered the door. William tried to tell him about the lottery ticket but Yves didn't understand a word of English. Yves told him to go away in French. Then, he closed the door in William's face.

The next night, William returned with a bilingual friend. This time, Jean - Guy opened the door. William gave him the ticket and said, "You am a millionaire! This is your ticket and it's worth over $ 7 million."

Jean- Guy said, "You are an honest man. I'm giving you a $ 1.2-million-reward."

Both men are very happy. Jean - Guy is going to share the money with his family. They are going to buy a new house.

William Murphy is going to go skiing in Vancouver.

听力原文:W: Hi, John. What are you up to? Is that really a French grammar book?

M: Well, I'm trying to teach myself some French. When I go to Montreal next semester, I don't want to sound like just another tourist. Most of the people there are bilingual.

W: What's the reason for this sudden interest in Canada?

M: Well, actually I've been thinking about going for some time now. I know someone there who's been waiting me to visit.

听力原文:W: Hey, Bob, guess what? I’m going to visit Quebec next summer. I'm invited to go
to a friend's wedding(19) , but while I'm there, I'd also like to do some sightseeing.

M: That's nice, Sherry. But do you mean the province of Quebec or Quebec City?

W: I mean the province. My friend's wedding is in Montreal (19) , so I'm going there first. VII stay for 5 days. Is Montreal the capital city of the province?

M: Well, many people think so because it's the biggest city, but it's not the capital. Quebec City is, but Montreal is great. The St. Lawrence River runs right through the middle of the city. It's beautiful in summer.

W: Wow, and do you think I can get by in English? My French is OK, but not that good. I know most people there speak French, but can I also use English?

M: Well, people speak both French and English there, but you'll hear French most of the time and all the street signs are in French. In fact, Montreal is the third largest French-speaking city in the world. So you' d better practice your French before you go (20) .

W: Good advice, what about Quebec City? I'll visit a friend from college who lives there now. What's it like?

M: It's a beautiful city, very old. Many old buildings have been nicely restored. Some of them were built in the 17th and 18th centuries (21) . You'll love it there.

听力原文:M: So, Andrea, you are going home for the holidays?

W: I sure am. I've booked a flight for tomorrow afternoon and I can't wait!

M: That sounds great.

W: What about you? Going home, toe?

M: I haven't decided yet, I'm still debating.

W: Haven't decided? Oh, you're never going to get a flight out of here. I'm sure all the seats have been reserved by now. It's the holiday season, after all!

M: Well, it's not such a big deal for me. My family only lives about a hundred and fifty miles from here. I usually drive or take the train. It's a short trip.

W: You don't sound very excited about it.

M: Well, we're not really a very close-knit family. I have three brothers, and they're spread out all over the place. One lives on the East Coast and the other on the West Coast. I even have a brother in Montreal!

W: Oh, wow! What does he do?

M: Translation work. It's kind of strange, but we rarely get together as a family anymore.

W: Well, I try to get home as much as possible. We're a big family-there are six of us children—so it's always a lot of fun.

M: Six kids?

W: Yep. And we've all really close. You should see it—most of us are married, too, so it makes for a very crowded house over the holidays.

M: I can imagine.

W: Of course, there are too many people to cook dinner for. It's a re al headache for my parents. So we end up going out to dinner a lot. It's pretty crazy.

M: Well, at my house my mother loves to cook. So, when all of us do get home—which isn't that often—she always cooks big, homemade meals. We have leftovers for days!

(23)

A.This evening.

B.Tomorrow morning.

C.Tomorrow afternoon.

D.Tomorrow evening.

听力原文:M: And now here is our guest Jane Thomas to tell us about Montreal's famous yearl
y island bicycle tour which is coming up in June. Good morning, Jane. What is the bike tour all about'?

W: Well. Peter, it's an event that's open to anybody who'd like to ride a bicycle through the streets of Montreal. The tour covers a standard distance of 65 kilometers. But the route is quite different every year. So even people who've already done it might enjoy doing it again.

M: How long does it take to go the whole distance?

W: It varies. Cyclists are free to go as fast or as slow and do as much or as little of the course as they like.

M: Well, what's the typical pace for a participant?

W: Between 12 and 30 km per hour. Some cyclists stop along the way and don't cross the finish line until early evening. But the whole point is that there is no rush. It's not a race.

M: I understand last year's tour had 45 thou 'sand cyclists and it was the largest mass cycling event in the world. How many do you expect this year?

W: The same as last year. And since we regularly have so many participants, can 1 take this opportunity to remind our listeners to sign up early? We filled up quickly last year and we had to refuse lots of applications.

M: Before we close, any other tips for prospective cyclists?

W: Yes. Take water with you. It is available at the relay stations but it helps to have an additional supply. And pack a good lunch with plenty of fruit for energy. Candy and chocolate don't do the trick.

(20)

A.How to increase one's speed in a bicycle race.

B.Major Canadian bicycle race

C.The contributions of cycling to health.

D.An annual cycling event.
