听力原文：W: Good morning. Can I help you？
M: Yes, please. I'm a new student and I'd like to have some information about the accommodation.
W: Right. The university provides two types of accommodation: halls of residence and self-sup-plying accommodation.
M: How much does it cost for the self-supplying accommodation？
W: For a single room, thirty-seven pounds eighty six per week, that's about five forty-one a day. For a double room, it's fifty-two per week.
M: I'd like the self-supplying accommodation. How far is that from the residence to the university？
W: It all depends. The residence at 110 Palm Street is about one and a half miles and the Freemen's Common Houses at William Road are about half a mile
M: When do I need to apply？
W: Are you an undergraduate or a postgraduate？
M: Undergraduate.
W: Then you should apply for it as soon as possible, since places in university-owned accommodation are limited and if you don't apply before the end of the month, you are not likely to get a place.
M: Could you possibly tell me what to do, if no vacancy is available？
W: Yes, you may consider private accommodation. The university runs an accommodation information office and its staff will help you.
M: Where's the office？

During the past two semesters I have concentrated on developing my electronic publishing and business communication skills. I am confident that I Can improve the ways in which Pascal Business Systems provides support for field marketing representatives. This would include designing and maintaining an online catalog which could be coordinated with current inventories(库存清单).
I am available for an interview at your convenience and look forward to an opportunity to discuss ways to improve operations and communications with field locations and sales. Thank you for your kind consideration.

听力原文：M: I am really excited at the prospect of starting my coming holiday!
W: It sounds good. It's a good idea to have relaxation after working so long.
M: Yes. I've been looking forward to it for ages. It seems such a long time since I had a holiday.
W: Then, what do you plan for the coming holiday？
M: You know, I have two kids. Both of them are keen on the idea of going camping.
W: Sounds great! Children are often active and like to have an adventure.
M: Absolutely. I like the idea, too.
W: You haven't decided where to go yet？
M: No, not exactly. Going abroad requires a large sum of money and I cannot afford it at the moment. Most probably I will choose a place not far from here so that we can go on a cycling tour.
W: Twenty days will be enough for your family to enjoy yourselves.
M: It would be far better if we could have a longer holiday. The holiday will last only two weeks. So we must seize every day to relax ourselves.
W: Still, two weeks is not bad. At least you are luckier than I am. We seldom have holidays because the bank seldom provides holidays for people who work for it.
M: As a teacher, I always keep busy with my teaching work and other work in the school. But the holiday provided by the school is good enough to recover my lost energy and give me refreshment.

Highways
With the increase in auto production， private turnpike （收费公路） companies under local authorities began to spring up， and by 1921 there were 387，000 miles Of paved roads. At that time，
there were no national standards for size， weight restrictions， or weight of trucks. During the World War I， roads throughout the country were nearly destroyed by the weight of trucks. When General Eisenhower returned from Germany in 1919， he noted: "The old convoy （车队） had started me thinking about good， two-lane highways， but Germany"s Autobahn or motorway had made me see the wisdom of broader ribbons across the land."
The interstate highway system was finally started in 1956. To build its 44，000-mile web of highways， bridges， and tunnels， hundreds of unique engineering designs and solutions had to be worked out. Considering the many geographic features of the country such as mountains， steep grades， wetlands， rivers， deserts and plains， innovative designs of roadways began to weave their way across the country， forever altering the face of America.
Today， the interstate system links every major city in the U.S.， and the U.S. with Canada and Mexico. Built with safety in mind， the highways have wide lanes and shoulders， dividing medians，or barriers， long entry and exit lanes， curves engineered for safe turns， and limited access. The death rate on highways is half that of all other U.S. roads （0.86 deaths per 100 million passenger miles compared to 1.99 deaths per 100 million on all other roads）.
By opening the North American continent， highways have enabled consumer goods and services to reach people in remote and rural areas of the country， spurred the growth of suburbs，and provided people with greater options in terms of jobs， access to cultural program， health care，and other benefits. Above all， the interstate system provides individuals with what they cherish most: personal freedom of mobility.
The interstate system has been an essential element of the nation"s economic growth in terms of shipping and job creation: more than 75 percent of the nation"s freight deliveries arrive by truck;and most products that arrive by rail or air use interstates for the last leg of the journey by vehicle.
Not only has the highway system affected the American economy by providing shipping routes， it has led to the growth of spin-off industries like service stations， motels， restaurants， and shopping centers. It has allowed the relocation of manufacturing plants and other industries from urban areas to rural.
National standards for paved roads were in place by 1921. 查看材料

In my fridge less Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came daily, the grocer, the butcher, the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted, and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on, food deliveries have ceased; fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country.
The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation. A vast way of well-tried techniques already existed-natural cooling, drying, smoking, salting, sugaring, bottling...
What refrigeration did promote was marketing — marketing hardware and electricity, marketing soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price.
Consequently, most of the world's fridges are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the wealthy countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum away continuously and at vast expenses, busily maintaining an artificially cooled space inside an artificially heated house— while outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of charge.
The fridge's effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been insignificant. If you don't believe me, try it yourself, invest in a food cabinet and turn off your fridge next winter. You may miss the hamburger, but at least you'll get rid of that terrible ham.

B．the author was not accustomed to using fridges even in his fifties

Paragraph 1
My name is Brandon and I began Humans of New York in the summer of 2010.I thought it would be really cool to create a catalogue of New York City’s people, so I set out to photograph 10,000 New Yorkers and put their photos on a map.(1) I worked for several months with this goal in mind.(2) But along the way, I started collecting quotes and short stories from the people I met.Taken together, these pictures and captions became the subject of a blog.(3) Blogs are popular with all age groups.(4) With over eight million followers on social media, HONY now provides a worldwide audience with daily looks into the lives of strangers in New York City.It has also become a #1 NYT bestselling book.
Paragraph 2
Learning a second language can provide a deeper understanding of a foreign culture.Social habits that may not make sense to most outsiders might start to make more sense after a few vocabulary lessons.For example, I always wondered why my Dutch cousins rarely said “you’re welcome” after I said “thank you”.(1) My cousin can speak English but sometimes makes mistakes.(2) At first, I thought he was being rude, but when I learned more about his language, I realized that they don’t use “you’re welcome” the same way we do: in response to “thank you”.(3) They actually say something that translates to “If you please” when they offer you something.(4) This is one of the first things I learned about Dutch culture when I started to learn their language and it gave me a different perspective on the roles of host and guest since in Dutch the onus to be polite is on the host, and not the guest as it seems to be in English.
