M: Yes, certainly. I came to India a year ago to have a better understanding of the country. After I arrived, I had to find a place where I could live and write. After some months I settled down happily in this village because it is a little cooler.
W: Is the experience in this country so important to you that you came all the way from the United States?
M: Well, that's also the question that the villagers ask me. Why do I isolate myself from the outside world in this remote village, like a retired old man? I am no longer working as a political journalist because my ideas have changed. I've come to believe that what is happening in the Third Word is more important than anything else. I want to understand how three quarters of the world's people live, and how their future might affect the rest of the world.
W: I must say I find your view on this issue very convincing. I' m sure when you go back to your own country you'll find your stay here very rewarding.
When did Dr. Eric arrive in India?
A.Several weeks ago.
B.Several months ago.
C.A year ago.
D.Two years ago.
听力原文:M: As hard as I try to get along with Eric, I just don't understand him. He hardly talks to me.

W: Why don't you try house-sitting? Last summer my friend Margaret house-sat for the Dodds when they went away on vacation. Mr. Dodd hired Margaret to stay in their house because he didn't want it left empty.
M: You mean the Dodds paid Margaret just to live in their house?
W: It wasn't that easy. She had to mow and water the houseplants. And when Eric house-sat for Mr. Cohen, he had to take care of his pets.
M: House-sitting sounds like a good job. I guess it's a little like baby-sitting-except you're taking care of a house instead of children.
W: The student employment office still has a few jobs posted.
M: Do I just have to fill out an application?
W: Margaret and Eric had to interview with the house owners and provide three references each.
M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.
W: The house owners want some guarantee that they can trust the house-sitters. You know, they want to make sure you're not the type who will throw wild parties in their house, or move groups of friends in with you.
M: House-sitters who do that sort of things probably aren't paid then.
W: Usually they are paid anyway just because the homeowners don't want to make a fuss. But if the homeowner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn't be able to get another job. So, why don't you apply?
(20)
A.Go to summer school.
B.Take a vacation.
C.Stay at home.
D.Find a part-time job.

听力原文:M: Sally, come downstairs, please. Look at this job advertisement.
W: (from a distance) I'm coming. Walt a moment. (nearer) Eric, I'm here. What's the matter?
M: Look, Sally. Here's a job advertisement. "Start a new life with Exco Exports Ltd. as personal assistant to our managing director!" Perhaps it's the job you want.
W: Personal assistant to the managing director? Yes, it is! Eric, would you like to read it for me?
M: It's my pleasure! Now, listen--"We will give the right person £ 3,500 pa for a 45-hour week, free training, the chance to join a pension scheme, 3 weeks' holiday per year and a company car! Canteen facilities are also available."
W: It sounds not so good. Only £ 3,500 every year. I think the salary is fairly low. The working hours seem too long, you see, a 45-hour week. Oh, my dear! And the holidays are short too, only 3 weeks.
M: But you're interested in this type of job. Since you have no job now, you can treat it as one of your choices.
W: Hm, you are right. OK, I'll write down the address. Eric, please repeat it to me.
M: "Box 4032, London".
W: Good, the company's in London. I don't want to work out of this city.
M: Look, there is another point maybe you will be attracted by.
W: Yes. Ah, just now, auntie Jenny called me.
M: Really? What did she say?
W: She told me there's a job opening for a secretarial position in her company. She asked me to apply for it.
M: Sounds good. Would you like to try?
W: I am interested in the work, but you know, her company is in the city of Edinburgh. So I thanked her and wrote down the address only.
M: How kind she is!
W: Yes, she is very kind... Oh, she invited us to her villa to attend her birthday party this Saturday.
M: Sure we are going to attend it. But what present should we take? How about a bottle of wine, or...
W: Eric! Look, here's another job advertisement.
M: What is it?
W: Listen: "Join one of the world's fastest growing companies: Exco Imports Lid."
M: How about the work?
W: (go on) "We are looking for a personal assistant to help our managing director."
M: Another personal assistant to the managing director.
W: "We can offer: £ 6,500 pa, 6 weeks' holiday, and a 35-hour week! And we have a supersocial club, too! Interested?" Yes! I am interested!
M: Where is the company?
W: "Ring Carrie Jones on 01 734 6387 Now? It's in London. Oh, Eric, I am so happy. It's the right job I want.
M: It seems everything is wonderful.
W: That's right. I'll call the person now! (dialling sound) Good morning! Is that Ms Carrie Jones? I am Sally Brown...

听力原文:W: How was the game, Bill? Did you enjoy it?
