W: How would you like your steak cooked, sir? Rare, medium, or well done?

M: I’d like mine rare, please. I think that’s the only way to eat steak, but my wife likes hers burned to be pleasantly dry.





M: I am looking for Mr. Williams. Does he come to the science lab after class?

W: No, he never stops by the science lab. Maybe he’s grading papers in the office or has gone to the library for reference books.





W: Your photo ID doesn’t look like you.

M: That’s because I’ve lost ten kilos since it was taken.

W: Oh! I thought it was your haircut that made you look different.





W: The concert’s in a month, Dad. You won’t forget to buy the tickets, will you?

M: I’ll get them next week. Did Sandy ask her parents if she could go with you? If she can’t, your brother will. He’ll get back home the week before the concert.





M: Wow! The store looks fantastic! What did you do with all the old junk here?

W: I took a trip to the garbage station. It was time that I did something to improve the situation of the shop, and now people actually want to shop here. So all my efforts have really paid off.

W: Good morning, dear. Where are you going so early?

M: I’m late! The debate starts at 9:00 sharp. I was supposed to be at the school half an hour earlier! Now I’m not sure if I’ll even get there on time! Will you drive me to school right now?

W: Calm down. Eat your breakfast and I’ll drive you to the school. Look! I made your favorite fried eggs and potatoes. I was thinking we could go shopping for new clothes later on. Remember the store we went to last Saturday?

M: But Mom, this is very important!

W: I know it is. But we’ll rush around tomorrow morning. Today is Sunday.

听下面一段对话，回答第8至第9两个小题。现在你有10秒钟的时间阅读这两个小题。

W: We always eat early. Let’s go out for a late dinner at a restaurant tonight instead.

M: You know the game is on at 8:00, dear. We should get home before that.

W: But you watch sports every night! I miss spending time with you.

M: This season is important, and my job depends on it. There are too many reporters now, and they’re younger.

W: But you have more experience.

M: True. I’m good at what I do, but audiences want newer faces these days. I need to stay on top if I don’t want to get fired. But I promise I’ll take you on a nice vacation when it’s all over!

听下面一段对话，回答第10至第12三个小题。现在你有15秒钟的时间阅读这三个小题。

M: I’m learning to drive this summer. Would you like to join me?

W: No, I hate driving. I wish I could have a self-driving car.

M: I guess this is not impossible. Experts are predicting that robots will take over 30% of our jobs within 10 years. Actually, robots can do a lot nowadays.

W: What can they deal with now?

M: They can do many difficult jobs like analyzing data and translating documents. They make fewer mistakes than humans and they don’t get tired.

W: Anything else?

M: Robots can work in the areas that cannot be reached by humans. For example, in Japan, robots have already been used in rescue work. They can even go into space to do scientific work.

W: What if we are completely replaced by robots?

M: I don’t think that’s very likely. Some jobs will never be completely taken over by robots, such as teaching and acting. I think we should take the opportunity to learn new skills and view robots as partners.

听下面一段对话，回答第13至第16四个小题。现在你有20秒钟的时间阅读这四个小题。

W: I have a special deal that says three drinks for the price of one. I found it from your website, see? So, those three Cokes should only cost me $2, not $6.

M: Oh, I didn’t know about the deal. My mistake. I’ll adjust that right now.

W: I also have special deals for the soup, bread, and sandwich meat. They should all be cheaper.

M: For some reason, our system doesn’t show the deal when the item is scanned. I’ll have to type in the special deals by hand. One moment.

W: Thanks. I need to save all the money I can. I just got laid off.

M: I’m sorry to hear that, Miss.

W: I went to Harvard and studied business. I never thought I’d be out of work when I graduated.

M: I also work as an accountant for a technology company. We are looking to hire some new accountants in various positions.

W: Really? Wow, I guess it’s a good thing that I complained to you about getting fired.

M: Why don’t you come to the company office and have a try? It’s at 3300 Main Street.

W: Sounds great. I’ll see you then, and thank you for the information!

听下面一段独白，回答第17至第20四个小题。现在你有20秒钟的时间阅读这四个小题。

Listen up, everyone. I have an announcement to make. First, many of our products are now out of season. So everyone should be focusing on selling our trousers and shirts. Second, we are going to have a sales competition this month. Whoever sells the most Nike trousers will get one free night at a hotel. Adidas is also offering a free pair of shoes to whoever sells the most of their products. The person who sells the most Under Armour clothing will get a trip to the factory and can pick out anything they want. Last, there are some changes to management. Jane Lewis will be our new assistant manager for the store. Tim Golding is going to stay as our general manager, but the head of our clothing department is now Dianne Greenberg. I know everyone has been working hard lately, but we have an important day coming up. At the end of this week, we will be sending in our total sales numbers for this quarter. That means by Wednesday, we need to have a record of every item in our store. So on Monday and Tuesday, we are going to close early and get started on that. Any questions?

第二节到此结束。现在，你有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。
