听力原文:W: First, I'd like you to tell me a bit about your experience.
M: Well, I left school after I'd done my A-level.
W: What subjects did you take?
M: French, German and Art.
W: Art?
M: Well, I really wanted to study Art. But a friend of my father's provided me a job -- he's an accountant in the city.
W: I see. In your application, you say that you only spent nine months with this firm of accountants. Why was that?
M: Well, honestly, I didn't like it -- so I got a place at the Art College a year ago.
W: Did your father mind?
M: Well, he was rather disappointed at first. He's an accountant too, you see.
W: Have you any brothers or sisters?
M:Two brothers, both at school. One's eleven, the other's fifteen -- taking his O-levels this year.
W: Right. What do you do in your spare time?
M: I like jazz and folk music; I go to the theater occasionally and act a bit myself. I read quite a lot, and I've done a bit of photography. Also, I've travelled a lot -- all over Europe.
W: Very interesting, Mr. Brown. I think that's all I wanted to ask about your background.
Why didn't Mr. Brown continue his study after he finished school?
A.He did not like to study.
B.He had to work to support his family.
C.A friend of his father's offered him a job.
D.His father did not like him to study Art.
听力原文:W: Sit down please, Mr. Johnson.
M: Thank you.
W: I have read your application letter here. You seem to have done very well in school. Can you tell me something about your schoolwork?
M: As you can see, my strongest subjects were art subjects. My best subject was history, and my second best was geography. However, my favorite subject was math, and the results I got in the math paper were quite reasonable.
W: That' s true. Now, can you tell me why you think these subjects will help you in this job?
M: Well, I understand that you manufacture computers, prepare software, and advise customers how to use them. Is that right?
W: Yes.
M: And I've been told that working with computers needs a logical mind rather than great skills in mathematics. That' s especially true, I believe, when it comes to writing programs. So I think my results show that I have some ability in logic and in mathematics, as well.
W: So, you would like to write programs for computers, wouldn't you?
M: Yes. That's what interests me most about computers, writing programs. And I think the computer industry itself is still expanding enormously. I'm sure that career prospects in the industry would be very good.
W: I see. Well, thank you. I've enjoyed our talk. We'll be writing to you.
M: Thank you. Good-bye.

听力原文:M: I see you and your friends have been decorating the dormitory lounge.
W: The walls look so stark and dreary, we decided to cover them with prints and posters.
M: I like this one, and you bought it on campus?
W: No, I bought it at the museum of modern art in New York city. The Art History Department recently sponsored a special museum tour there.
M: Is this a reproduction of something in the museum collection?
W: Yes. It's a print of a painting by Georgia O'keffe called "lake Georgia window".
M: It looks more like a photograph. The details are so accurate and realistic.
W: I thought the same thing when I first saw the painting hanging in the museum. But the art history teacher pointed out how the painting is in fact very stylized.
M: What do you mean?
W: First, by choosing a front view of the window, O'keffe was able to present a symmetrical image and eliminate any hint of three dimensionality.
M: It does look almost flat. The open shutters seem to have no depth at all.
W: To emphasize that two dimensional look, O'keffe also eliminated details of texture. The shutters, for example.
M: Yes, their surface even looks as flat as the glass of the window pane.
W: So even though she created a realistic painting of a window, O'keffe stylized and simplified the shapes to resemble an abstract design.
M: It sounds as though you learned a lot on the trip. Is the Art History Department planning another museum tour?
W: Yes, the next one is a special exhibit of European painters at the museum of fine art in Boston. I think 1 will sign up for that one. Maybe I will even come back with a print to decorate the bare walls of my dormitory.
Where are the speakers?
A.In a museum.

M: Wonderful! I spent most of my time at the art museum. I especially liked the new wing. I was amazed to hear the guide explains all the problems they had building it.

听力原文:M:Hey,Jane.What do you,think of the art museum you visited last week?
W: It is wonderful, especially the new wing.
M: I have just read an article about that new wing and it says the cost is ninety million total. It's amazing, I think.
W: Yeah, the guide mentioned that. You could see they built it at all costs.
M: Hmm. It looks really unusual, at least from what I saw in the picture.
W: It's really impressive. There are triangles all over the paving stones in the courtyard, the skylights, and even a lot of the sculptures. All the sculptures are mobile and are made of pieces of aluminum that moves slowly in the air. You'll like it, I bet.
M: The article said that, too. It was said the original was steel, and it weighed so much that it wasn't safe to hang
W: Right. They used aluminum later so that those sculptures wouldn't come down on someone's head.
M: From the article, I also learned there appeared many other problems when they built it.
W: The article sounds interesting.
M: Yes, it went into every detail about the new wing. There was even an interview with the sculptor.
W: rd like to read that. May I borrow your magazine?
M: Of course. Just come to my place and take it tonight.
