　　W：Not really．You can just leave a note．I'll give it to him later． 　　Text 5 　　M：How's John now?Is he feeling any better? 　　W：Not yet．It still seems impossible to make him smile．Talking to him is really difficult．And he gets upset easily over little things． 　　第二節(jié)　聽下面5段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白。每段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白后有幾個(gè)小題，從題中所給的A、B、C三個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。聽每段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白前，你將有時(shí)間閱讀各個(gè)小題，每小題5秒鐘；聽完后，各小題將給出5秒鐘的作答時(shí)間。每段對(duì)話或獨(dú)白讀兩遍。 　　聽下面一段對(duì)話，回答第6和第7兩個(gè)小題。 　　Text 6 　　W：Directory Assistance．What city, please?

　　W：I mean the province．My friend's wedding is in Montreal．I'm going there first．I'll stay for five days．Is Montreal the capital city of the province? 　　M：Well, many people think so because it's the biggest city．But it's not the capital．Quebec City is．But Montreal is great．The Saint Royal River runs right through the middle of the city．It's beautiful in summer． 　　W：Wow, and do you think I can get by in English?My French is OK, but not that good．I know most people there speak French, but can I also use English? 　　M：Well, people speak both French and English there．But you'll hear French most of the time．And all the street signs are in French．In fact, Montreal is the third largest French-speaking city in the world．So you'd better practice your French before you go． 　　W：Good advice．What about Quebec City?I'll visit a friend from college who lives there now．What's it like? 　　M：It's a beautiful city, very old．Many old buildings have been nicely restored．Some of them were built in the 17th or 18th centuries． 　　W：Fantastic．I can't wait to go． 　　聽下面一段對(duì)話，回答第11至第13三個(gè)小題。 　　Text 8 　　M：Hi, Ms Rowling, how old were you when you started to write?And what was your first book?

　　W：My first two novels were for adults．I suppose I might write another one．But I never really imagine a target audience when I'm writing．The ideas come first．So it really depends on the ideas that grasp me next． 　　M：Where did the ideas for the Harry Potter books come from? 　　W：I've no idea where the ideas came from．And I hope I'll never find out．It would spoil my excitement if it turned out．I just have a funny wrinkle on the surface of my brain, which makes me think about the invisible train platform． 　　M：How did you come up with the names of your characters? 　　W：I invented some of them．But I also collected strange names．I've got one from ancient saints, maps, dictionaries, plants, war memoirs and people I met． 　　M：Oh．you are really resourceful． 　　聽下面一段對(duì)話，回答第14至第16三個(gè)小題。 　　Text 9 　　M：I'm feeling unhappy．You know, I gave a good friend of mine a gift two weeks ago． 　　W：Uh-huh． 　　M：And I haven't got any message of receipt of the gift．I'm still waiting to hear from her． 　　W：Hmm, that's probably one of my biggest problems right now．When I was a kid, my parents taught me to write a thank-you card the moment someone gives you a gift to honor your arrival, your birthday, a holiday or any other occasion．It is best to write them a card thanking them for the gift． 　　M：Immediately? 　　W：Yes．Write the card; put it in the mail． 　　M：That's right． 　　W：Nobody does it any more, and it drives me crazy． 　　M：It's…it's gone out of style, I guess．I think it's very rude． 　　W：Do you think it's inconvenient or people don't know how to do it．because maybe they weren't raised and taught to write a thank-you card? 　　M：I think it is a combination of both．People aren't doing it that much and… 　　W：That's horrible． 　　M：Because they didn't learn from their parents． 　　W：It's absolutely horrible． 　　M：Yeah 　　聽下面一段獨(dú)白，回答第17至第20四個(gè)小題。 　　Text 10 　　M：Now let's go on with the topic about “ My Interests”．When my interest changed from space to the sea, I never expected that my friends would be so surprised and puzzled．Yet I can understand their feelings．As I have been writing and talking about space flight for the best part of 20 years, a sudden switch of interest to the depth of the sea does seem rather strange．To explain, I'd like to share my reasons behind this unusual change of mind．The first excuse I give is an economic one．Underwater exploration is so much cheaper than space flight．The first round-trip ticket to the moon is going to cost at least l0 billion dollars if you include research and development．By the end of this century, the cost will be down to a few million．On the other hand, the diving suit and a set of basic tools needed for skin-diving can be bought for 20 dollars．My second argument is more philosophical．The ocean, surprisingly enough, has many things in common with space．In their different ways, both sea and space are equally hostile environments．If we wish to survive in either for any length of time, we need to have special equipment．The diving suit helped the design of the space suit．The feelings and the emotions of a man in the deep sea will be much like those of a man out in space．
