W: Hey, it's eight o'clock in the morning. Where are you going so early?

M: I want to go to Trader Joe's before the crowds get there. Their everyday low prices always attract lots of folks on the weekend.

M: Wow, I love how they made this theatre look like a living room! Look at all the couches and chairs.

W: Yeah! Look, they even provide blankets. You can also order food during the movie by pressing this red button.

W: Can I have one of these phone cards behind you as well, please?

M: Sure. But I need to see your ID for the beer.

W: What? Ha-ha! Young man, I'm probably 20 years older than you. You know what? You just made my day. This is the best thing that has happened to me this week!

M: Could you drive a little faster, honey? I appreciate you giving me a ride, but I'm going to be late to my office if we don't hurry up.

W: I'm going as fast as I can. Next time, you should take a taxi so you can complain about all you want!

W: Bradley, this coffee tastes a little strange. What did you put in it?

M: It's actually what I didn't put in it, Rachel! We consume too much sweet stuff these days. It's time for us to get back to natural flavors. Don't you think so?

M: I'm calling because I got a flat tire and my car needs to be taken to an auto shop.

W: Are you in a safe area? And will you be waiting in your car or somewhere else?

M: Yes, I am safe. I will be waiting outside the car on the side of the road.

W: Where are you located?

M: I'm on the side of the freeway entrance near Melvin Street and Fourth Street, across from Ninth Avenue.

W: Can your car start?

M: Yes, the car itself is fine.

W: It looks like we have a service provider in your area. He should be able to reach you in about 30 minutes.

M: That's good to hear.

W: All right. Thank you for calling USAA. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call back. Again, a service provider should reach you in 30 minutes or less.

W: You just dropped your phone into the toilet!

M: Oh, no! It's not working. What should I do?

W: Well, you should not try to text and brush your teeth at the same time. This was going to happen sooner or later. Dad is going to be so angry.

M: Yeah, I know. I have to find a way to fix it. Do you have any suggestions?

W: Well, my friend Craig dropped his phone in the kitchen sink. And he said that you are supposed to put it in a bag of rice and let it sit there for a little while.

M: How long? A few minutes? A few hours?

W: Uh, I think he said a few days.

M: What? I can't be without a phone for that long. What am I supposed to tell my friends? And besides, Mom and Dad will know something is up if they don't see me taking pictures and posting things online.

W: Well, you could try opening your phone up and using my hairdryer on the lowest setting.

M: Do you think that will work?

W: I have no idea, but you'd better start trying something fast. I think Dad just pulled the car into the garage.

听下面一段对话，回答第11至第13三个小题。现在你有15秒钟的时间阅读这三个小题。

W: Good morning, sir. What can I do for you?

M: Hi. I just bought this camera a few days ago, but when I took it out of the packing, I noticed that there was something wrong with the flash. When I try to photograph something, the flash doesn't go off.

W: I'm sorry you had a problem with our product. Do you still have the receipt?

M: My receipt is right here along with the original box.

W: We don't have that product at the moment, but we can exchange it for a camera of the same price. Or, I can ask the technician to fix it, or I can give your money back.

M: I think I'd like to get a new camera today instead of asking my money back.

W: OK. Why don't you take a look around and see if there's another model you like?

听下面一段对话，回答第14至第17四个小题。现在你有20秒钟的时间阅读这四个小题。

W: I'm finished with all my college applications. I just emailed the final one last night.

M: Congratulations! Maybe we should celebrate!

W: Er... It's probably a little too early for champagne.

M: What do you mean? It's nine o'clock on Friday night. It's the perfect time for champagne.

W: No, I mean, I haven't gotten in anywhere yet, so I don't have anything to celebrate yet.

M: Oh...well, I went out to dinner with my parents last month when I finished my college applications. I received a letter from one of the schools I applied to and I got all excited. But they just said that they had received my application and would let me know soon.

W: Oh, that's so terrible!

M: My older brother told me last week that if the envelope is thick, that's a good sign. It means there are some forms for you to fill out because you've been accepted.

W: But if it is thin, it means you do not get in?

M: Most of the time, that's the case. Some schools will tell you that you are on a waiting list, and if so, it's usually on one piece of paper. But to me, that would still be like not getting into a school.

听下面一段独白，回答第18至第20三个小题。现在你有15秒钟的时间阅读这三个小题。

W:Good evening, everyone. I'm so pleased to stand before you today. It honestly never crossed my mind that I'd win the National Book Award, but here I am. You know, as I was writing The Sun Turns, I was worried that I would never finish it. And if I did finish it, I thought it would never be read with the kind of careful attention I have always paid to my favorite authors' books. Not only did I finish the book, but those who have read it have proven to be some of the most intelligent readers I have ever met. I don't know all of you, but you have truly honoured me with your thoughtful comments. Thank you. It took me 10 years to write this book. My editor took another two years to make it perfect. Finally, after 13 years, it's out in the world! Thank you to Warehouse Eight for publishing this book. Without your guidance and support, I wouldn't be standing up here today. I want to thank my husband for his careful reading of my first and second drafts as well as for being there for me as I was sending the book out. Thank you to my brother who stood by me when I was short-tempered from writing throughout the night on little sleep. And thank you to my mother for providing me with so many home-cooked meals and for raising me with a love of literature.
