13.W:I don’t really see why you want to buy a taperecorder; after all, we’ve got a recordplayer.
M:It’s just I want one, that’s all.
Q:What did the man want to buy?
【解析】D女士說：我不明白你為什么想買個錄音機，我們已經有一個播放機了。男士說：我就是想要一個。所以，男士想買的是一個錄音機。
14.M:It seems to me that I can’t find Park Street on the map. It’s not far from here, I believe.
W:Why not ask someone where it is?
Q: What does the woman mean?
【解析】C男士說：我在地圖上找不到公園街了，我相信一定離這兒不遠。女士說：為什么不問問人那個地方在哪兒呢?女士的意思是建議男士去尋求幫助。
15.M:I think it’s high time we turned our attention to the danger of drunk driving now.
W:I can’t agree with you more. You see, countless innocent people are killed by drunk drivers each year.
Q: What does the woman mean?
【解析】D男士說：我們是時候該注意酒后駕駛的危險了。女士說：我再同意不過了，每年有無數無辜的人被酒后駕車的司機致死。因此，女士的意思是應該注意到酒后駕車的危害性。
16.M:If I were you, I’d ride a bike to work. Taking a crowded bus during rush hours is really terrible.
W:Thank you for your advice, but my bike has got a flat tyre.
Q: How would the woman most probably get to work?
【解析】A關鍵詞在于flat tyre車胎沒氣了。男士說：如果我是你我會騎自行車去上班。在上班高峰期擠公車是在太糟糕了。女士說：謝謝你的建議，但是我自行車車胎沒氣了。那么，由此可見，女士仍然會擠公車上班去。
17.M:John looks good in that old jacket, doesn’t he? The color goes well with his hair.
W: I still wish he’d get a new one.
Q: What’s the woman’s opinion?
【解析】D男士說：約翰穿那件舊夾克很好看啊，顏色跟他的頭發很協調。女士說：我還是希望他穿件新的。因此，女士的建議是：John should get a new jacket.
18.M:Today, my boss said that he would fire me if I make another mistake. But that was not my mistake. It was Jim’s.
W:You’d better tell him the truth honestly and directly, and he will understand you.
Q: What does the woman mean?
【解析】C男士說：老板說如果我再犯錯就炒我魷魚，但事實上那不是我的錯是吉姆的錯。女士說：你應該把真相直接地坦誠地告訴他，他會理解你的。
Now you’ll hear two long conversations.
Conversation One
W:I haven’t seen you here for a couple of weeks. Have you stopped eating, or something?
M:No, does look like I’ve stopped eating? I’ve been spending a lot of time in the library.
W: Working on the paper?
M:I wish I was working on a paper. I’m working on three different papers: anthropology, English lit and history.
W: Wow, that is a lot of work.
M:Yeah, and what’s frustrating is that I am studying the 19th century British Empire in all three classes. But I can’t just write a single paper for all three.
W: Why not?
M:The professors won’t let me even if I can make it three times as long as the suggested length.
W:Oh, that’s too bad. Could you write your papers on three aspects of one topic?
M:Mm, what do you mean? Do you have something in mind?
