第1题
W: So you are not sure which to go for？
M: That's it. Of course, the conditions of work are very different: The Polytechnic is offering two-year contract which could be renewed, but the language school is only offering a year's contract, and that's a different minus. It could be renewed, but you never know.
W: I see. So it's much less secure. But you don't need to think too much about steady jobs when you are only 23.
M: That's true.
W: What about the salaries？
M: Well, the Pistoia job pays much better in the short term. I'll be getting the equivalent of about ￡22,000 a year there, but only ￡20,000 at the Polytechnic. But then the hours are different. At the Polytechnic I'd have to do 35 hours a week, 20 teaching and 15 administration, whereas the Pistoia school is only asking for 30 hours teaching.
W: Mmm...
M: Then the type of teaching is so different. The Polytechnic is all adults and mostly preparation for exams like the Cambridge certificates. The Language School wants me to do a bit of exam preparation, but also quite a lot of work in companies and factories, and a couple of children's classes. Oh, and a bit of literature teaching.
W: Well, that sounds much more varied and interesting. And I'd imagine you would be doing quire a lot of teaching outside the school, and moving around quite a bit.
M: Yes, whereas with the Polytechnic position, I'd be stuck in the school all day.
What do we learn about the man from the conversation？
A．He wants to sign a long-term contract.
B．He is good at both language and literature.
C．He prefers teaching to administrative work.
D．He is undecided as to which job to go for.

听力原文：M: Do you mind if I ask you how old you are？
W: Actually, I'd rather not say. But put it this way, I'm on the wrong side of 30.
M: Is that a. good age to be？
W: Um, yes, pretty good. But it's a lot older than 25, which is how old I feel.
M: What's life like when you're in your thirties？
W: Well, not very different from my twenties except that I'm seriously thinking of buying more expensive face creams, and wondering if they really work.
M: What do you think is the best age to be？
W: I think between 25 and 30 is a good age, because you've sorted out what you want and you know how to get it and you've got some experience of trying to get it. At that age, you don't think about the consequences of what you do, whereas when you're a bit older you do tend to worry about the consequences.
M: So do you wish you were still 25？
W: No, I'm happy at the age I am now. I mean I had a good time in my twenties, but I wouldn't necessarily want to relive them.
M: I see.

M: This saying has been scientifically proven! According to our research, laughter strengthens the immune system and lowers the levels of stress hormones...
W: Can you be more specific？
M: Well, (23)after a bout of laughter, blood pressure drops to a lower, healthier level than when the laughter began. Dr. William Fry of Stanford University found that "twenty seconds of guffawing gives the heart the same workout as three minutes of hard rowing".
W: What else？
M: Another year-long study of heart attack victims done at the Oakhurst Health Research Institute in California found that of those patients who spent half an hour a day watching comedy videos, 10 percent had a second heart attack, whereas 30 percent of those who did not watch had a second attack.
W: Wow! Laughter is really a good medicine to patients. So do we have to learn to laugh？
M: Not necessarily. (24)Since laughing is something people can do sitting down, costs no money, and requires no special exercise equipment or skill, it's the perfect workout for anyone who doesn't have the time or desire to participate in a regular fitness program.
W: Oh, I see. What about the situation in which you aren't in a mood to laugh？
M: OK, remember, (25)even when you fake a smile or laugh, you get the same physiological benefits as when it's the real thing, because your mind is smart, but your body is stupid and can't tel1 the difference.
W: Great! I've learned it. Thank you very much!
M: My pleasure.

People have been fascinated by the Bermuda Triangle for years, because of the mysterious disappearance of many ships and planes in the area. There is hardly any agreement about the cause of these disappearance, in fact, it is difficult to find any agreement about the boundaries of the area.
