Part III Listening Comprehension
11. W: I ran into Sally the other day. I could hardly recognize her. Do you remember her from high school?
M: Yeah, she was a little out of shape back then. Well, has she lost a lot of weight?
Q: What does the man remember of Sally?
12. W: We don’t seem to have a reservation for you, sir. I’m sorry.
M: But my secretary said that she had reserved a room for me here.四级听力
I phoned her from the airport this morning just before I got on board the plane.
Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?
13. W: What would you do if you were in my place?
M: If Paul were my so n, I’d just not worry. Now that his teacher is giving him extra help and he is working hard himself, he’s sure to do well in the next exam.
Q: What’s the man’s suggestion to the woman?
14. M: You’ve had your hands full and have been overworked during th e last two weeks. I think you really need to go out and get some fresh air and sunshine.
W: You are right. That’s just what I’m thinking about.
Q: What’s the woman most probably going to do?
15. W: Hello, John. How are you feeling now? I hear you’ve been ill.
M: They must have confused me with my twin brother Rod. He’s been sick all week, but I’ve never felt better in my life.
Q: What do we learn about the man?
16. M: Did you really give away all your furniture when you moved into the new house last month?
W: Just the useless pieces, as I’m planning to purchase a new set from Italy for the sitting room only.
Q: What does the woman mean?
17. M: I’ve brought back your Oxford Companion to English Literature.
I thought you might use it for your paper. Sorry not to have returned it earlier.
W: I was wondering where that book was.
Q: What can we infer from that conversation?
18. W: To tell the truth, Tony, it never occurs to me that you are an athlete.
M: Oh, really? Most people who meet me, including some friends of mine, don’t think so either.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
Conversation One
M: Mary, I hope you are packed and ready to leave.
W: Yes, I’m packed, but not quite ready. I can’t find my passport.
M: Your passp ort? That’s the one thing you mustn’t leave behind.
W: I know. I haven’t lost it. I’ve packed it, but I can’t remember which bag it’s in.(19)
M: Well, you have to find it at the airport. Come on, the taxi is waiting.
(21)
W: Did you say taxi? I thought we were going in your car.
M: Yes, well, I had planned to, but I’ll explain later. You’ve got to be there in an hour.
W: The plane doesn’t leave for two hours. Anyway, I’m ready to go now.
M: Now you are taking just one case, is that right?
M: Gosh, what a lot of stuff! You’re taking enough for a month instead of a week. (20)
W: Well, you can’t depend on the weather. It might be cold.
M: It’s never cold in Rome. Certainly not in May. Come on, we really must go.
W: Right, we are ready. We’ve got the bags. I’m sure there is no need to rush. (21)
M: There is. I asked the taxi driver to wait two minutes, not twenty. (21)
W: Look, I’m supposed to be going away to relax. You’re making me nervous.
M: Well, I want you to relax on holidays, but you can’t relax yet.
W: OK, I promise not to relax, at least not until we get to the airport and I find my passport.
