SECTION A CONVERSATIONS
Directions: In this section you will hear several conversations. Listen to the conversations carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文:W: How are things going with you and your roommate, Wallace?
M: Not very well, Theresa. We're supposed to share the groceries, but I end up feeding him three meals a day. My grocery bill is huge, you know. I really can't afford it any longer.
W: I know how you feel. I used to have a roommate like that. She never offered to reimburse me for anything.
M: I'm really fed up with his freeloading, but I just don't know how to tell him that he should come up with half the grocery bill, because sometimes he treats me to a meal in a restaurant.
W: Well, honesty is the best policy. Maybe you just want to have a heart-to-heart, friend-to-friend talk with him. If he refuses to mend his ways, then ask him to move out. You can't let him wear out his welcome.
M: Well, you are right, I guess. But I just don't know how to start...
W: Oh, come on. Don't act as us girls. You know it was just like what I did when I started to deal with my roommate then. It is not as complicated as you thought. Believe me.
What are the two speakers talking about?
A.Her roommate.
B.Huge grocery bills.
C.Three meals at home.
D.A meal in a restaurant.
听力原文:W: Did you go to the match on Saturday, Bill?
M: No. Alice. I listened to the commentary instead. It sounded pretty exciting, I must say.
W: You must be joking. Well, it was pretty dull really.
M: How did it go then? [4]I should have thought the Gunners did well to win over the Wolves in their present form.
W: Yes, I suppose they did But two-one didn't do them justice. [5]They should have had at least three in the first half, and another two in the second. How far do you think the Wolves will go?
M: I suppose it all depends on how they shape after Christmas. Remember what happened last year?
W: I'll say I do. I'm not likely to forget it. I've never seen such a shame. To think they were in the top three for most of the lime before Christmas, and then the way they came down. I just don't understand what came over them. I can't understand.
M: I don't know, either. Can you really say flint? [6]Because they ware quite O.K. until Blake got injured, and then without his influence in the snack they just couldn't score goals any more. I think it was simply a matter of the attack being weakened.
Which of the following statements is CORRECT about Saturday’s match?
A.The commentator made it very dull.
B.The game was exciting.
C.It was between the Gunners and the Wolves.
D.It was won by the Wolves.

W: (9) Kerron Clement. He just broke the world record in the 400-meter.
M: Right.
W: Did you know that he's only 19 years old? Did you see it on the news?

M: (7)Hey, I'm fast. I could beat him any day.

He won the NCAA championship in the 400-meter hurdles and then won the world junior championship in the same event.

Soon, a golden-haired boy appeared. "Do you have a job for me?" he asked. I told him about a system for sorting books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him some cards for some unreturned books that I thought had been returned but not recorded. Maybe some books were put on wrong places. He said, "Is it a kind of a detective(侦探) job?" I answered yes, and then began his work.
He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and said, "Time for rest!" he argued for finishing the finding job, but the teacher won.
The next morning, he arrived early, "I want to finish these books," he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to work with me more often, it was easy for me to say yes.
