M: Mm. I'm not all that keen really. I'd rather stay at home.
W: Oh, come on, Steve. Think of the sun !
M: Yes, but think of the cost! Going abroad is very expensive.
W: Oh, it isn't, Steve. Not these days.
M: Of course it is, Juliet. The best thing about having a holiday here in Britain is that it's cheaper. And an other thing, the traveling would be easier. No boats, planes or anything.
W: Even so, we've been to most of the interesting places in Britain already. What's the point in seeing them again? Anyway, we can travel round Britain whenever we like. There's no point in wasting our summer holiday here.
M: Mm, I suppose you're right. Nevertheless, what I can't stand is all the bother with foreign currency, changing money and all that when we go abroad. I hate all that. And it's so confusing.
W: Oh, don't be silly, Steve.
M: And what's more, I can't speak any of the languages -- you know that. It's all right for you. You can speak foreign languages.
W: Exactly. You see, what I'd really like to do is practice my French and Spanish. It would help me a lot at work.
M: Mm, but that's no use to me.
W: But just think of the new places we'd see, the people we'd meet!
M: But look, if we stayed here, we wouldn't have to plan very much.
W: I'm sorry, Steve. No. I just don't fancy another cold English summer.

听力原文:W: Good morning. Complaints Department.
M: Yes. I'd like to speak to Miss Wang.
W: Excuse me, sir. We have a bad connection. Could you speak a little more slowly?
M: I-want-to-speak-to-Miss-Wang.
W: This is Miss Wang speaking. Can I help you?
M: I'm afraid I have to make a serious complaint to you.
W: What's the problem?
M: I'm sorry to have to say this, but the electronic dictionary you changed for me the other day doesn't work properly, either. I'm really annoyed about it.
W: Would you like me to have it changed again?
M: Oh, no. I'm tired of it. I'm just calling to find out if I can bring it hack.
W: Have you got a receipt?
M: I should have one, but I can't find it. It's my fault. Maybe I threw it away right after I went out of the store.
W: That's a bit complicated, then. If you don't have a receipt, you can't have your money back.
M: But I did buy it from your store. What if I can't find the receipt?
W: I'm afraid there isn't much we can do. Would you please have another look for it and contact us?
M: I'll do that. Bye.

(阅读理解题)How do you acquire confidence? Speak English with friends first because with them you can speak freely without feeling shy.Then try your ability with your teachers and with foreigners if you have an opportunity to meet them.Don’t be afraid of mistakes.Nobody is above mistakes; and don’t be afraid to ask questions about things you don’t know.This is the way to acquire knowledge.Not until you begin to think in English rather than Chinese can you be said to know the language.This is not a superhuman achievement—only a question of practice.Thinking in English will help you to truly understand how the language is spoken.Read novels to build vocabulary, thus gaining confidence.Start with small volumes of 30 to 40 pages.Write down any new word you discover and look it up in your dictionary.Learn how to use the new word by making sentences with it.Bring the word to your teacher to have it explained more fully.Don’t be angry when you learn a new word today and forget it tomorrow.To forget is a natural process; to remember is unnatural and requires effort.Of 10 new words learnt in a day, only two or three will remain in the memory.The others you will forget and have to relearn.When learning them for the second time, they will come more easily, and this time you probably will remember nearly all of them.A small minority, however, may elude you again, and have to be learnt for a third time.Constant repetition is necessary.
