听力原文：M: Hi, Sandy. How are your finals going？

W: Oh, hi, Michael. I finished my last exam this morning, and I finished two term papers. I finally feel like I can see the light.

M: Great. Now how about a change？ I've got two tickets for the new modern art exhibit downtown. Do you want to go with me？

W: Oh, I don't know. I don't know anything about modern art, and I'm no artist.

M: You don't have to be an artist to enjoy a good art show! Besides, at least it's something different from studying.

W: You are right. Have you seen this exhibit yet？

W: Oh. Well, it ought to be good then.

M: And, besides, next door to the modern art museum is a new Asian art museum. So we could hit both of them if you're up for it.

W: OK, you've talked me into it. Did you want to go this afternoon？

听力原文：M: Hi, I've heard you're looking for a different apartment.

W: Yeah, the place I'm in is really bad.

M: It was OK when I was there.

W: (22) Oh, the boiler keeps breaking and when it doest we lose the heat for several days at the time.

M: Why doesn't the owner replace it？

W: (23) Well, she said it was cheaper to keep fixing it. She's a nice enough person, but she just doesn't want to spend the money. In any case, I'm sick of being cold.

M: Can you get your deposit back if you move？

W: (24) If I give a two-month notice, I can get the whole thing back.

M: So what kind of place are you looking for？

W: I think I'll try to get into one of those tall buildings near the university. There's nothing really special but at least they are new and comfortable.

M: I've heard that those buildings are pretty noisy. The walls are thin and you can hear everything that's going on in the other apartment.

W: Oh, that's terrible. I need some place quiet to finish my paper. I guess I'll have to look at some more ads. Maybe a new one isn't necessarily better.

M: Why don't you try some of those apartments in Winsor？ They're supposed to be nice.

W: Oh, aren't they expensive？

M: Not really, you'll be surprised at how reasonable some of them are. (25) The problem there is that the bus doesn't run that way.

W: That will definitely be a problem. I can't afford a car right now. I guess I'd better check a few of the places here in the city before I make a decision.

(26)

A．It's too noisy.

B．It's not convenient to the university.

C．The heating system is not functioning.

D．The owner is unpleasant.

听力原文：W: Hi, Rob, you know that class you missed yesterday？

M: Yes, but I was seriously iii.

W: I'm sorry to hear that. You (:an have my notes.

M: Thanks. I appreciate that.

W: So how are you feeling？

M: Much better now that I began taking an antibiotic. Doctor Lee gave me one, and it really helps. You know what amazes me is that how the human beings managed to survive before antibiotics.

W: I agree. When my father was a young boy in the 1940's, he got blood poisoning and would have died. But his doctor had heard of this new drug called penicillin.

M: Wow, he was really lucky. And now we have lots of antibiotics that kill bacteria.

W: Well, penicillin kills bacteria, but not all antibiotics do. Some are just slowing the bacteria down until our normal immune defenses can finish the job.

M: Wow! How do you know all these？

W: My mother used to look up all our medicines. There are lots of books around. It's interesting. What antibiotics are you taking？

M: I don't remember. It's on the bottle. I think I'll take a new look at the label and drop by the library to see if they have reference books on medicines. See you in the lab tomorrow.

(23)

A．The man's illness.

B．The effect of antibiotics.

C．The hobby of the woman's mother.

M: That sounds like a great opportunity too. Why not take advantage of it？

W: I'd love to, especially since I'm studying hotel management. It would be a great way to get some practical experience in my major.

M: And you never know it might lead to something with them after graduation. They are one of the biggest hotel chains in the area.

W: You're right. But there I couldn't get as much money as I would be working in the clothing store, not to mention the discount 1 could get on clothing there.

M: How much is it paid？

W: They only give me a small allowance and give me free room and board for the summer.

M: Well, if I were you, I would take it anyway. You could always get a job during the school year next year to make extra money.

(20)

B．Because she could get free room and board.

C．Because she could get some discount.

D．Because she could gain some practical experience in her major.

听力原文：M: Hi, Sandy. I heard you'd been to the West Coast.W: Yes, I was home yesterday.M

听力原文：M: Hi, Sandy. I heard you'd been to the West Coast.

W: Yes, I was home yesterday.

M: Welcome back. How was your trip？

W: Terrific. I had a wonderful time. It was really nice to get away from the city for a while.

M: Where did you go first？

W: Los Angeles. We stayed there for a week.

M: What did you think of it？

W: It was all right. I liked it better than I had thought I would. It was very clean and spacious, and it had lots of trees. The problem was transportation. The bus service was terrible, and of course, they didn't have a subway, so it was a little difficult to get around. We had to rent a car.

M: And what did you see？

W: Oh, the usual things. We took a drive around Hollywood and looked at the stars' homes, and then we went to Universal Studios and Disneyland.

M: How did you like Disneyland？

W: It was great! We really enjoyed it. We took all the fides, some of them twice, and bad lots of fun. I felt just like a kid again.

M: Was the weather good？

W: Oh, yeah. It was nice and warm in Los Angeles and cool but comfortable in San Francisco.

M: Cool in San Francisco？ That's surprising.

W: Yeah, it surprised us a bit, too. We didn't take any sweaters. But they say it's always like that in August. Anyway, I just loved it. It's probably the most beautiful town in the U.S. with all those hills, the bay, and those charming old Victorian houses.

M: So, you like it better than Los Angeles？

W: Oh, yes. There's so much to see and do. And because it's smaller than Los Angeles, it's a lot easier to get around. There're lots of buses and cable cars.

M: Well, I can't wait to have a look with my own eyes.

(23)

A．It's not so good as she expected.

B．It's terrible.

C．It's very good.

D．It's just so-so.

W: Have you ever had experience in investment？

M: Oh, yeah. Actually, I already have a small stock portfolio. Barbara and I own some shares in four large companies.

W: That's great. And I am sure you will get some good advice from Mr. Hunter. And perhaps he can also give you some information on tax policy.

M: Thanks. But why do I need to know the tax policy？

W: You know that you will have to pay estate taxes on the inheritance？

M: I could hardly forget about it.

W: So Mr. Hunter would be able to advise you about your taxable income, and perhaps he can suggest some tax shelters for you.

M: It's very kind of you. But I am still worrying that I do not have enough money to be a speculative investor.

W: Well, my broker can give you the latest information in all areas of the stock market, not just in investment for speculation.

M: That's great then. I hope to talk to him because I am thinking of increasing my dividends from stocks.

W: Maybe he will suggest some currently active stocks for you to invest in. He also handles municipal bonds, the income from which is tax-exempt. Talk to him soon, here's his phone number.

M: Thanks a lot!

(23)

A．The death of the man's aunt.

B．The woman's broker.
