　　Section A

　　1. M: Mary, could you please tell Tom to contact me, I hope he would help out with the orientation program next week.

　　W: I will certainly tell him if I see him. But I haven’t seen him for a few days.

　　Q: What does the woman mean?

　　2.M: Susan, I am going to change the light bulb above the dining table. Would you hold the ladder for me

　　W: No problem. But be careful while you are out there.

　　Q: What does the man want the woman to do?

　　3.W: It’s freezing cold. Let me make some coffee to warm us up, do you want a piece of pie as well?

　　M: Coffee sounds great. But I am going to have dinner with some friends in a while so I’d better skip the pie.

　　Q: What does the man mean?

　　4.W: How come Jim lose his job?

　　M: I didn’t say he’s lost it. All I said was if he did not get out and start selling a few cars instead of idling around all day, he might find him looking for a new job.

　　Q: What does the man say about Jim?

　　5. M: Hello Mary, this is Paul at the bank. Is Tony home?

　　W: Not yet, Paul. I don’t think you can reach him at the office now either. He phoned me about five minutes ago to say he will stop for a hair cut on his way home.

　　Q: Who do you think the woman probably is?

　　6.W: Oh, boy, I don’t understand how you got the ticket today! (交通场景，注意ticket此处指罚票！) I always thought you were slow even driving on a less crowded fast lane.

　　M: I am usually careful. But this time I thought I could get through the intersection before the light turned.

　　Q: What do we learn about the man?

　　7.W: Your dog certainly seems to know you are its master. Did you have to punish him very often when you trained him?

　　M: I found it much better to praise him when he obeys and not to be so fussy when he makes mistakes.

　　Q: What does the man say about training dogs?

　　8. M: I am afraid there won’t be time to do another tooth today. Make sure you don’t eat anything like snacks for the next few hours and we’ll fill another tomorrow.

　　W: All right, I must hurry to the library to return some books.

　　Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?

　　9. W: I am worried about Jenny going to college? College students are wild these days.

　　M: Actually only a few are like that. Most students are too busy studying to have time to cause trouble.

　　Q: What does the man imply?

　　10.W: You didn’t seem terribly enthusiastic about the performance.

　　M: You must be kidding. I couldn’t have clapped any harder. My hands are still hurting.

　　Q: What does the man think of the performance?

　　Section B

　　Passage 1

　　Born and raised in central Ohio, I am a country girl through and through. (我是个地道的乡下丫头。)I am currently studying to become a physical therapist, a career path that marked great achievement for me. At Ohio State University, admission into the physical therapist program is intensely competitive. (录取竞争很激烈。)I made it pass for applying for the program the first year, but it was turned down for admission(但是未被录取) I was crashed (我崩溃了)，because for years I have been determined to become a physical therapist. I received advice from friends and relatives about changing my major and finding another course for my life (我的亲戚朋友们奉劝我改变专业，选择另外的人生道路). I just could not do it. I knew I could not be as happy in another profession. So I still for myself and begin to work seriously for another year and reapplied. Happily I received notice of my admission. Later, I found out that less than 50% of the applicants had been offered positions that year. Now in the first two years of professional training, I could not be happier with my decision not to give up my dream. My father told me that if I want it badly enough, I would get in. Well, Daddy, I wanted it, so there.(我想得到，所以就得到了。) After graduation, I went to travel to another country, possibly a Latin American country and work in a children’s hospitals for a year or two. So many of the children there are physically handicapped but most hospitals don’t have the funding to hire trained staff to care for them properly (但是医院里面没有钱雇佣受过训练的医生给这些残疾儿童恰当的治疗). I would like to change that somehow.
