听力原文：M: Hello, Jane. What was the film like？
W: Awful. It was a complete waste of time and money.
M: Why？ What was it about？
W: It was about a married couple. They had to live with the wife's mother, because they didn't have enough money to buy a house of their own.
M: A lot of young people have to do that.
W: Yes, but the husband had to work overtime three times a week, so he was always tired.
M: It sounds like the story of my life.
W: Yes, it does, doesn't it？ But this man was always over-tired, and he couldn't sleep. So he used to take two sleeping pills every night. M: I take sleeping pills sometimes.
W: Yes, but not two every night. Anyway, the strain was too much for him. He had a nervous breakdown and had to go to hospital.
M.. It sounds a very depressing film.
W: Not really. His wife was able to find a good job as an interpreter, because she could speak French and German fluently. After a few months' work, she had a better job than her husband. So in the end, they were able to buy a house, and he didn't have to work any more. Stupid, wasn't it.
M: I don't know. My wife used to speak French. I must tell her to brush it up.

听力原文： It was in 1951, during my first week at North Carolina College, a black school, the English chairman's wife, who was as light as a white woman, stopped me one day in the ball.
When I went to her office, she said, "You had the highest grade on the examination." She was talking about the exam that the entire freshman class took. In spite of her smile, her eyes and tone of voice said, "How could this blackskinned girl score higher on the test than the other students？ It must be a mistake.' At North Carolina College, color was used in deciding status. The faculty assumed that lightskinned students were more intelligent, and they were always a bit surprised when a darkskinned student did well, especially if she was a girl.
When the grades for the first quarter come out, I had the highest average in the freshmen class. The chairman's wife called me into her office again, pulled out a copy of the freshman English final exam, and asked me to retake it. I couldn't believe it. It was so incredible to her that I had the highest score in the class that she was trying to test me again. I felt angry, so intense that I wanted to start hitting her. I have seldom hated anyone so deeply. I handed the exam paper back to her and walked out.

A．She felt indifferent.
B．She felt satisfied.
C．She felt delighted.
D．She felt surprised.

听力原文： I am living in a small village in the country. My wife and I run a village shop. We have a very peaceful life, some boring I say. But we love it. We know all the people in the village. They have plenty of time to stop and chat. I have plenty of time for my hobbies too--gardening, fishing, walking in the country side. I love the outdoor life. It wasn't always like this though I used to have a really stressful job, working so late in the office every evening. I often bring work home at the weekends. The advertising world is very competitive. And when I look back, I can't imagine how I stood it. I have no private life at all. No time for the really important things in life. Because of the pressure of the job, I used to smoke and drink too much. The crisis came when my wife left me. She complaint that she never saw me and I had no time for family life. This made me realize what is really important to me. I talked things through with her and decided to get back together and started a new and better life together. I gave up tobacco and alcohol and searched for new hobbies. Now I am afraid of looking back since the past life seemed like a horrible dream.
