M: Are you coming to the gym?

M: You should try this. My aunt made it.

W: Mm, delicious. What's it?

M: It's called couscous. It's made from wheat. There's some meat on top of it.

M: I'm cooking beef with potatoes. Do you want some?

W: No, thanks. I'm on a diet. I only eat vegetables and fruits.

M: OK, there are some grapes in the fridge. Help yourself.

W: Thanks.

M: Lisa, do you think we should get a new cellphone?

W: Oh, our cellphone is a bit old but perfectly usable. Right now, we need a cupboard in the kitchen much more.

W: Hey, Tomas. How was the movie last night?

M: It was OK, not exactly a top quality one but still a welcome surprise. I'll give it three stars out of four.

W: Sam, I listened to a lecture last night at the art gallery and the artist told us we don't need to be professional to give our home a new look.

M: So, did the artist say how to do it exactly? I'm about to decorate my house.

W: Yes, I have noted down a few of the creative ways he talked about.

M: I'd love to hear about them. For example, should I redesign the entrance to my home?

W: Yeah, it's important. It's the first thing people see when they visit. It should reflect the design of the rest of your house. Depending on your budget, you might want to give your front door a fresh coat of paint.

M: Mm, I'll consider that. Another thing is I have a big table in my dining room that no one ever sits at.

W: Yeah. Some people never use their dining tables. So why hold onto them? Replace the big table with a smaller round table.

M: That's a good idea. The whole family will still be able to sit there.

W: Yes, and all these creative ways can be finished on your own to suit your design style and personal taste.

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。

Many students ask me about how to understand and enjoy the experience of concertgoing. So today, I'd like to take some time to talk about it. First of all, a live concert is totally different from listening to recordings. In a live performance, what is performed, how it sounds and how the artist feels about the performance, these exist for only a short moment and can never be repeated. As an audience responds to the excitement of such moments, feelings are exchanged between the stage and the hall. You have many kinds of concerts by many kinds of performing groups to choose from. Concerts by university performing groups are easily accessible, free or at a relatively low price and often of high quality. Announcements of such concerts will be found in the newspaper of our university. Performances outside the university are announced in local newspapers. These concerts tend to be more expensive but discount tickets are often available for students. Though tickets can usually be bought on the day or night of a concert, you have a wide choice if you buy them in advance at the box office or on the Internet. If possible, prepare for a concert by listening to some of the works to be performed and by reading about the musicians.
