听力原文:M: How is your term paper coming along?
W: I have just finished the draft, and handed it in to Miss Harper.
M: Wow, you are really a doer. I planned to start writing the main body today. What did Miss Harper say about your draft?
W: Well, she suggested I reconsider the whole structure of my paper, as she saw no links between Chapter Three and the whole theme.
M: Oh, so what are you going to do?
W: Miss Harper advised me to delete Chapter Three, and enrich the other chapters. She also recommended a few books. I think that will be of great help. And I'm going to the library this afternoon.
M: I wish I could have Miss Harper be my supervisor. She tends to help her students with patience.
W: Who is your supervisor, then?
M: Mr. Simpson. You should know that he is famous for being strict, and rather, picky.
W: In my opinion, Mr. Simpson is quite responsible, though sometimes he seems to be too direct. All in all, he is quite nice.
M: If you were in my shoes, I'm sure you wouldn't say so. Anyway, I have revised the outline at least three times to meet his requirements. That's why I fall far behind you.
W: Just as the saying goes, a strict master brings up accomplished disciples. You are lucky enough to have Mr. Simpson be your supervisor.
M: You've got a point there. Do you mind my going to the library with you together? Maybe you could give me some advice on writing the term paper.
W: Of course not. I'll gladly do what I can to help.

听力原文: Some of the most practical lessons coming out of research in psychology are in the area of memory. People ask, why can't I remember that term from the physics chapter or that the library books are due?
For many people, memory may be weak, because they don't use it enough. It's like a muscle. If you don't exercise it, it won't get strong. That's why it's important to keep our mind active, to keep on learning throughout our life. We can do this by reading, playing memory games and seeking out new experiences. It's my guess, though, that the lack of stimulation isn't a problem for students like you. More likely, the lives you live are so busy and stimulating that this in itself may sometimes interfere with learning. Later on I will discuss how information is recalled from memory. But, first, the information needs to be recorded, in other words, learned. And for busy people like you and me, that is where the real problem often lies. If we are distracted, or we are trying to think what we are going to do next, the incoming message just might not be getting recorded effectively. And that leads to the first tip for students who want to improve their memories. Give your full attention to the information you hope to retain. Research clearly shows the advantages of this, and also of active learning, of consciously trying to visualize a new fact, perhaps to make a mental picture, even a wild ridiculous one, so the new fact will stick in our memory. Let me illustrate that for you here a little more concretely this evening.

SECTION A CONVERSATIONS
Directions: In this section you will hear several conversations. Listen to the conversations carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文:W: Listen, Jack, we're going skiing over this three-day weekend. How about it? You want to come along?
M: I'd love to, but I can't.
W: Why?
M: I'm studying all weekend.
W: Oh, come on, Jack, you won't be studying all day Sunday.
M: Well, I'll be studying at least until midnight.
W: Well, we'll be at the ski resort in the Changbai Mountains in case you want a break. I've got to run. Are you sure you are not coming?
M: Oh, I don't know. I've got too much work and not enough time. I wish I had started my term paper earlier. If I had begun it a few weeks ago, I'd probably have had it done by now. It's due Monday. What am I going to do?
W: Well, if I were you, I'd stop all that moaning and get cracking! Besides, there is still the weekend. If you want, I'll give you a hand.
M: Oh, thanks, Janice. I'd really appreciate your help. Do you really think I'll be able to get it done this weekend?
W: Sure you will. What's your paper about?

There are some encouraging signs. Bank lending rates are now in the 10 percent range, down from 17 percent in 1980 and interest on mortgages has fallen from 15 percent to around 11 percent. Productivity is up, and the rate of wage hikes is down. But none of these signs of improving health is proof the rebound will persist. Many economists are bracing for a jump in joblessness to 3. 3 million this fall. Nevertheless, the prime minister is unlikely to resort to Keynesian pump priming even if her policies remain slow to work. At a critical time during her first term, when many in her cabinet were demanding a U-turn on economic policy, she uttered the now famous words: "The lady's not for turning. "
Thatcher not only has changed the course of British economic policy, but has altered the shape of the nation's politics, especially within the Conservative Party. Fading fast is the image of the Tories as the private preserve of landed gentlemen who went to the right schools, believe in moderation and carry a certain sense of nobleless oblige toward the lower classes. Thatcher has taken the party out of the hands of the gentry and turned it over to people like herself who have worked their way up in the world and who sometimes see a sense of social responsibility as an un- affordable luxury. She has forged an alliance between skilled workers and the middle class. Only unskilled workers have remained safely in the Labor camp, and theirs is a dwindling breed.
Thatcherism is ______.
A.Thatcher's economic experiment
B.the Aliance forged by Thatcher between skilled workers and the middle class
C.the toughness of Thatcher's personality and of her policies
D.the generalization of Thatcher's first term

听力原文:M: Susan, I need your help this weekend.
W: What is it, John? Another term paper?
M: No, no. This is easy compared to that. My cousin is coming on Thursday. She has an interview at the college and I promised my aunt to look after her. I'm going to go with her to take the interview on Friday, but on Saturday I'll be on duty at the library all day and can't get out of it. I was wondering if you could show her around during the day and maybe we can meet for dinner that night.
W: Sure. I don't have any plans. What is she interested in?
M: Actually I haven't seen her for three years. She lives so far away. But this will be her first time on a college campus. She is still in high school. So she will probably enjoy anything on campus.
W: Well, it seems that a music festival will be celebrated in the hall that day. Maybe she will be interested.
M: Well, I hope so. I'll take her to your place on the way to work, around eleven. If there is a blizzard, I'll give you a call and see if we can figure something else out.
W: Sounds good. In the meantime I'll keep Saturday open. We can get in touch on Friday night when we have a better idea of the forecast.
M: I hope this works out. I feel kind of responsible. She won't know her way around. I want her to have a good time. Anyway I really appreciate your help. I owe you a favor.
W: No problem. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
