听力原文：M: Gold Express. Jim Davenport.
W: Morning. This is Anna Marsh from Business Review. You said you'd give me some information for the article I'm doing on delivery companies.
M: Ah, yes.
W: So, when did “Gold Express” start doing business？
M: Well, it had been in business for 10 years when I joined it in 1986, so that means it was set up in 1976.
W: I see. And what's your annual turnover？
M: ￡118 million last year—that's ￡12 million more than the year before.
W: That's fantastic.
M: Most similar companies have only grown by 8 to 9 percent in the last 5 years, but our business has grown by 54 percent in that time. I think that's due to our MD, Peter Mackintosh.
That's spelled M-A-C-K-I-N-T-O-S-H. He's done a great job.
W: What ideas has he brought to the company？
M: Well, first a very positive attitude to customer opinion. We have 120,000 customers, and we send questionnaires to 4,000 of those every 8 weeks.
W: That must be very useful for you.
M: And we encourage all our staff—there are 7,500 now, because we've taken on another 450 this year-to give opinions too.
Last month 76 percent of staff said they were “totally satisfied” with their work here—that's 10percent more than last time!
W： That's great, thanks.

From Chamonix he's climbed Mont Blanc on his 17th birthday, and one of the Aifuilles the day after. That was it, then: she was French from a family, most of whom like climbing. No doubt. No other explanation.
A month later I met them both in town. Anna surprised me because she was English. She was a dancer in the theatre. "Never climbed more than 60 steps in my life". She told me. "Peter has his interests, and I've got mine. No problems". "No problems". "None at all", Peter said, smiling. "Where did you spend your honeymoon？" "I flew to New York to see the Drake Dancers on Broadway. A wonderful show". Peter said, "I didn't want to miss the good weather. So I went to Switzerland and climbed the north face of the Eiger with Allen Dunlop. Great fun, the Eiger. Grand place a honeymoon. I'll show you the photographs we took one day".

Peter Fern was mad on mountains. Climbing was the love of his life. Church towers, seaside cliffs, rock faces, ice mountains, anything—"if it's there" he used to say, "then I want to climb it". So the news of his marriage gave me a surprise. I'd never known him to take much interest in girls. Well, well, Peter Fern a married man. I couldn't get over it. I wondered whether his wife would try to stop some of his risky adventures. She was French perhaps—from that place where he usually spent his holidays. Chamonixm, wasn't it？

Ms Lessing never finished high school and largely educated herself through reading．She has written dozens of books of fiction，as well as plays，nonfiction and two volumes of autobiog-raphy．She is the l l th woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature．

When Mr．Lessing and her marriage broke up，she and her young son，Peter，moved to London，where she began her writing career．Her first novel，The Grass Is Singing was pfib-lished in Britain in 1 949．Ms Lessing’s strongest influence may be that she inspired a generation of feminists with her breakthrough novel，The Golden Notebook．The book was published in 1962，which wrote about the story of Anna Wulf，a woman who wanted to live freely and Was，in some ways，Ms Lessing’s secondary personality．She wrote about the inner lives of women and rejected the opinion that they should abandon their lives to marriage and children．
