听力原文:W: Look, I'm sorry, but the books for Chem. 100 aren't in yet.
M: Why not? School started last week.
W: I really don't know. Maybe the professor ordered them late, or the publisher ran out of them and they are on back order.
M: This is awful. I'm worried about this course anyway. I didn't do that well in chemistry in high school.
W: I know what you mean. Did you check the used book section?
M: Yes. No luck there.
W: Okay. Look, why don't you go over to the library? I'll bet that the professor put at least one copy on reserve.
M: Do you think so? That would be great. At least I could make copies of the pages that I need until the books come in. Oh, wait. If there's only one copy, everyone will be trying to do that.
W: True. Well, we do have a bulletin board. You could put a notice up saying that you are looking for a book for Chemistry 100, and maybe someone who has it will want to sell it directly to you. Do you have a phone in the dorm?
M: Yeah. I'll just put my name and phone number on the notice. That's a great idea! Where's the bulletin board?
W: By the T-shirts and clothing near the front door. Oh, and be sure to put down the exact title of the book, too, because they don't always use the same one.
M: Thanks. You've been a big help.

A.A notice on the bulletin board.
B.A book for a class the man is taking.
C.A chemistry class that is being taught.
D.The library reserve desk.
听力原文:W. What do you find hardest in English?
M: I find listening really hard. Sometimes it's just impossible to understand.
W. Well, you just need lots of practice. The more you listen to English, the easier it becomes.
M: It's easier said than done!
W: Why don't you buy a radio? Then you can listen to Radio Beijing or BBC English programs on the radio.
M. Do you think that would help?
W. Of course. And why not buy some English tapes and some books to go with them? I'm sure you' 11 find them useful.
M: Yes, that's a good idea. But I still have another difficulty. My written English isn't very good, either.
W: Oh! Welt, for that, you'd better find an English pen friend.
M: Thank you for your advice.
What are they talking about? They are talking about ______.
A.How to make pen friends
B.English studies
C.written English
M: Yes, Unfortunately, that's a common problem with books made from wood pulp.
W: I suppose that to make paper from wood you have to add a lot of chemicals and acids to make it tam white.
M: Exactly, and it's the acid that eventually eats away the paper.
W: Oh, that actually makes sense, but this book's not even 75 years old and I've seen books in museum that are hundreds of years old and they're in fine condition.
M: Well, you see, books have been made from wood pulp only since the 1850s, before that they were made from materials mostly animals' skins, and no chemicals were added.
W: It's a shame those older wood pulp books are going to fall apart some day. is there anything that can be done to preserve them?
M: En, currently the only way to stop the books from decaying is to remove the binding and treat each page individually to remove the acid.
W: That doesn't sound very economical.
M: No, it isn't. It's not practical to treat a large number of books with this process, so we only try to rescue the most valuable edition books in our collection.
W: Well, thanks for the explanation. I'd better got back to my project.
M: Good luck and I hope the old book will hold long enough for you to finish it.

Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of others they need or want. When they work,they usually get paid in money.
Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells.
Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money. In some parts of Africa, cattle were one of the earliest kinds of money. Other animals were used as money, too.
The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the cen-ter. People strung them together and carried them from place to place.
Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made of tin. Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later, other countries began to make coins of gold and silver.
But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. (80) The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than paper moneused toda .
Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.

Running a School Book Stall
开办学校书店
I assume that the desirability of a school book stall needs no urging. Many schools sell food and toys. If we do not sell books it is surely strange? Many schools serve areas where book shops do not exist and the only books brought before children for buying are the dubious selections of supermarkets. Moreover even in communities where a good book shop is available the guidance which can be given at the book stall is valuable, as we soon found.
Essentially the school book stall is an extension of the encouragement and guidance in private reading which is part of the work of the English teacher. The first essential then, in setting up shop is a teacher particularly interested in children reading and in building up as wide as possible a knowledge of books to suit the school's range of pupils.
Given the teacher, the next requirement is a bookseller willing to supply you. In some cases you will be able to obtain your books on credit, paying as you sell, but if the school can find a sum to purchase its stock, or at least a part of it, this is a great help.
Having found your supplier you then approach the Publisher's Association for a Book Agent's licence. The licence entitles you to a discount on your purchase through your chosen supplier, the usual discount being 10% with service. Service usually consists of delivery and a sale or return arrangement, the latter essential in allowing you to be enterprising and experimental in your stock. Without service a slightly higher discount is given but the former arrangement is clearly preferable.
The biggest, indeed the only considerable, cost in running the book stall is the occasional theft of a book and this may well vary from school to school but the presence of the teacher and the alertness of the assistants is largely deterrent, and the discount should cover this and any other smaller expenses. Browsing is essential. The books must be handled. You cannot keep them safe and immaculate behind glass.
For equipment the only essentials are some tables on which to display the books and a cupboard to store them in. Incidentally an arrangement of books with covers rather than spines visible seems to be vastly more attractive and accessible to children who have not the habit of browsing. A single way out past the cash desk is helpful to security and we record details of each purchase including the age of the buyer both for reordering and as interesting information on reading habits.
Initially we stocked two hundred titles and the selection has grown to close on a thousand. It is convenient if cash or credit allows you to have duplicate copies of popular titles. What is stocked must depend on the teacher in charge. What you are prepared to sell in the cause of encouraging interest in reading will obviously be an individual judgment. Sales for their own sake are in the school context obviously purposeful and the teacher needs to be able to explain to interested parents why he thought a given book valuable for a certain child.
There are always more offers of help from pupils than we can accept. The assistants serve, recommend, order, make posters and arrange displays. Some of the least able pupils have worked devotedly at the book stall.
Publicity is vital. We have two display cases on the school approach containing forty books changed fortnightly and they arouse a lot of interest. Teachers' recommendations, book lists, beginnings of stories read to classes, do much. Some classes buy a book a week between them. The book stall is always open on such occasions as Parent's Evenings.
We open twice a week in the lunch hour and we sell twenty to forty books a week, commercially not much but in our opinion well worth the effort.
