材料1
W: Good morning, Mr. Li. Did you sleep well last night after your long flight?
M: Good morning. Yes, I did. I feel totally rested and I'm now ready for our meeting.
材料2
M: We could go to a ball game this evening or would you rather eat in a restaurant and then see a film?
W: To tell you the truth, I can't really go anywhere this evening, because I'm expecting an important phone call.
材料3
W: Have you got any idea what to buy for Mary's birthday?
M: Well, I'll get her a new schoolbag, and I promise to take her to a film. What about you?
W: Oh, I haven't decided yet. I'll probably buy her that new music record, as she likes it so much.
材料4
W: So, what do you usually do in your free time?
M: At the moment I'm spending much of my free time learning German. I also enjoy playing the piano.
W: Do you play any sports?
M: Not much. But I go to the sports club and work out once a week?材料5
M: Did you have a lot of friends when you were young?
W: I didn't really make any close friends then and because I like going off in the morning. And I mean, this was on the school holidays: riding a bike away with a few books in the basket and finding a nice place to read.
材料6
M: Well, we'll certainly stay here again next time we're passing through.
W: Good. Do let us know in advance and we'll try to get you the same room.
M: That would be lovely. It may be quite soon in fact.
W: Oh? How is that?
M: Well. We are driving to the South of Spain in the next couple of days and we may come back this way.
W: Do give us a ring if you decide to. I hope you'll have a pleasant trip.
材料7
M: Great! This supermarket has everything. I hope this comes to under 75 dollars because I don't have much money left.
W: That comes to 75 dollars and 5 cents.
M: I knew it. I knew I'd be over.
W: Well. Don't worry about the 5 cents. They'll go. Have a nice day.
M: Well. Thank you. See you again.
材料8
W: John, I thought you were going to leave early today to take your son to the show.
M: I'm still planning to. But I can't leave until I finish typing all the letters.
W: Can you leave that until tomorrow?
M: No. The boss wants them first thing tomorrow morning.
W: How many have you got left?
M: About five.
W: Why don't you just go ahead, John? I'll do the letters for you.
M: Thank you very much, Janet. You're so kind.
材料9
M: Customer service. Andney Grant speaking. How may I help you?
W: I can't believe this is happening. I called and ordered a 32-inch bag last Friday. But today I found that you sent a 24-inch one. I was planning to use that bag during our vacation in Mexico, but it doesn't seem possible any more because we will take off on Saturday. It's only two days away. What am I supposed to do?
M: I'm really sorry, madam. I'll check right away. Would you please tell me your order number?
W: It's CE2938.
M: Just a minute. I do apologize, madam. There did seem to be a mistake. I'll have the correct size bag sent to you by overnight mail right away. It will arrive in time for your Saturday trip. Again I apologize for any inconvenience caused by our mistake. I promise it won't happen again.
W: Ok. Well. Thank you.
M: Thank you, madam, for choosing Linch mail. I hope you will a wonderful vacation.
材料10
M: Juliet, you chose not to go to college. Why? Was it about money?
W: Well. I don't want to sit here and say I was too poor to go to college. But the fact is that we didn't have the money, though my mum probably could have made enough somehow. I probably could have worked harder at school and gotten better grades, so, it is really, I didn't get to go to college. I had a wish to go to school every other week. It wasn't just my path.
M: At the time did you feel that you were missing something?
W: My best friend went off to university and I just remember every time I talk to her. It all sounded so fun and so great. Here I was selling ten shoes and getting on the bus every day to work in town. We both thought the other's life was so much more exciting. I was trying hard to make enough to pay for my own flat every two months and that seemed so exciting to her. And she would talk about studying for finals, and going to parties, and I thought, God, she is so perfect.
