听力原文
11. M: Professor Johnson's lecture is so boring. I don't think it's useful for me.
W: How could you think so? It was very crucial to our final exam.
Q: What does the woman imply?
12. M: Rudy, will you please make ten copies of this report?
W: I'd like to, but the photocopier is out of order.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
13. W: Edison seems to believe that this year's football league match will be wonderful.
M: Nonsense. Most others, including me, think differently.
Q: What does the man mean?
14. M: I want some chicken livers. Why is duck more expensive than chicken?
W: Ducks are not as popular, so few farmers raise them. It also costs more to grow a duck to the same weight than it does a chicken.
Q: Why is chicken cheaper than duck?
15. W: We have a complete range of famous brands here. How about this one? It's an Omega.
M: I'm afraid that I'm not interested in watches with metal watchbands.

16. M: If the traffic wasn't so bad, I could have been home by 6：00.
W: What a pity! Your cousin was here to see you.
Q: What do we know about the man?
17. W: I'm only halfway through my project.
M: How come? You've been working on it for a week!
Q: What does the man mean?
18. W: Eric, poor Jim got a ticket for speeding on his way to work.
M: That's nothing. I got two back to back yesterday-one for running a red light and another for ignoring a stop sign.
Q: What happened to Eric?
Conversation One
M: So, Susan, do you have anything planned for this Saturday?
W: Uh, I'm kind of busy. Why do you ask?
M: Oh, I was wondering if you'd like to get together and do something, like watch a movie or take a walk down by the lake.
W: I'd love to, but I'm really going to be busy all day on Saturday.
M: What do you have to do on that day?
W: First, my mom asked me to help clean the house in the morning, and then I have a dentist appointment at 12:30. I can't miss that 'cause I've canceled twice before.
M: Well, what about after that?
W: Well, I'm going to be running around all day. After the dentist appointment, I need to meet Julie at 2:00 to help her with her science project that's due on Monday morning at school.
M: Okay, but are you free after that?
W: Hardly. Then I have to pick up my brother from soccer practice at 4:30, and my mom asked me to cook dinner for the family at 5:30. I feel like a slave sometimes. Then, I have to clean the dishes and finish reading my history assignment. Who knows how long that'll take?
M: Wow, sounds like you're going to have a full day. Hey, listen, why don't I come over later in the evening, and we can make some popcorn and watch a movie.
W: Oh, that'd be great, but our video machine is broken.
M: Huh. Well, let's just play a game or something.
W: Sounds good, but give me a call before you come. My mom might try to come up with something else for me to do.

W: So, how are things going, Steve?
M: Well, to be honest, Carla, I was feeling great on Saturday, but I started to feel sick Sunday afternoon. I thought I'd get better, but I feel worse than before. And I'm really worried because I'm scheduled to have a presentation at work on Friday, so I have to be better by then.
W: Well, what seems to be the problem?
M: Well, I thought I had the flu, but the doctor said it was just a bad cold. He gave me some cold medicine to take care of my stuffy nose and fever. I'm supposed to take the medicine three times a day after eating, but it doesn't seem to help. He also told me to stay off my feet for a day or so, but I'm so busy these days.
W: Listen, forget about that medicine! I have just the thing to get rid of bad colds. You see, my mom is really into herbal medicine.
M: Oh, no, thanks.
W: Ah, come on! Give it a try. You just take some of my mom's herbal tea and drink it four times a day. Believe me. You'll be up and dancing around in no time.
M: Dancing around in no time, right? Well, I guess. Nothing else seems to be doing the job.
W: Great. I'll come by your place at 7:30. See you then.

Passage One
A blonde lady walks into a New York City Bank and asks for the loan officer. She says she is going to Europe on business for 2 weeks and needs to borrow $5, 000. The bank officer says he will need some kind of security for the loan, so the lady hands over the keys to a new, costly car parked in front of the bank. With all checked out, the bank agrees to accept the car as security for the loan. The loan officer drives the new car into the bank's underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks later the lady returns, repays the $5, 000 she loaned, and $15.40 interest. The loan officer comes up to the lady and says,“We here at the bank are very happy to this deal, but while you were away, I checked you out, and I'm a little puzzled. I found out that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles me is why you would bother to borrow $5, 000." The lady replies, “ Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for 15 dollars?"

Passage Two
Gates was born and brought up in Seattle. At the age of 14, he founded a computer programming company with three friends, and they had earned $20,000 by selling their traffic-counting system to local governments. In 1975, he dropped out of his law course at Harvard to found the Microsoft Software Company in Washington. Gates' domination of the emerging computer industry began in 1980-1981, when he devised an operating system and licensed it to IBM.
MS-DOS became the standard operating system for nearly all IBM personal computers. During the 1980s, Microsoft also developed more specialized software. When the company went public in 1986, Gates became a multimillionaire at the age of 31. Five years later, he was ranked as the world's richest man. In the 1990s, Gates made a fresh fortune from sales of Windows, a system that enables a computer to be operated with on-screen symbols rather than complex keyboard commands. A revised version was launched amid huge publicity in 1995.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. What did Gates do at the age of 14?

Passage Three
A few months ago, a team of interviewers were sent to schools to find out why children are prejudiced against science. Their answer provided this surprising picture of a typical scientist: they thought a scientist is a rather dull person who spends all day working in a laboratory, wearing a white coat and making things that smell bad. They thought that scientists usually aren't very interesting and don't talk about anything but science. They don't play games well and they aren't attractive to the opposite sex. They also did not realize that women are as capable of becoming scientists as men. On the other hand, an arts graduate is seen as a much livelier person. Arts graduates are thought to have a better sense of humor, to be interested in sports and pop music and to be considered attractive. When you understand these misconceptions which children have, it is only logical that most of them want to study arts rather than science.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. According to the passage, who were interviewed?
33. What is a typical scientist like according to the survey?
