W: Since 1982, but when I went there in 1982, I planned to stay for only 6 months.
M: Why did you change your mind？
W: Well, I'm a designer. I design leather gores, mainly shoes and handbags. Soon after I arrived in Florence, I got a job with one of Italy's top fashion houses, Ferragamo. So I decided to stay.
M: How lucky! Do you still work for Ferragamo？
W: No, I've been a freelance designer for quite a long time now. Since 1988, in fact.
M: So, does that mean you design for several different companies now？
W: Yes, that's right. I've designed many fashion items for a number of Italian companies. And in the last 4 years, I've also been designing for the British company, Burberrys.
M: What have you been designing for them？
W: Mostly handbags and small leather goods.
M: Has the fashion industry in Italy changed since 1982？
W: Oh, yes. It's become a lot more competitive, because the quality of products from other countries has improved a lot, but Italian quality and design is still world famous.
M: And do you ever think of returning to live in England？
W: No, not really. Working in Italy is more interesting. I also love the Mediterranean sun and the Italian life style.

听力原文：W: Didn't you write a paper about Albert Kahn last semester？
M: Yes.for my history of architecture class.
W: Oh,I am taking it now andI have to do some research on industrial architecture.I need to read up on Kahn's factories. So I would like to see what you wrote about them.
M: I don't think my paper will help；I focus on his classical design like Clements library and office buildings. but you are interested in the modem building he is famous for.
W: Yes,he is best known for his factory,especially the auto plants in Detroit.He made a breakthrough in industrial design.You know before his time,factories were so narrow and inefficient,but his factory provided enough light and air and open space. So the cars could be assembled in one huge plant.
M: I remember reading that previously.factories had wooden frames and the heavy machinery made the buildings vibrate and there were fire hazards too.But when Kahn started to design auto plants around the turn of the century,reinforced concrete had just been invented.With the reinforced concrete,not only were the buildings solid and fireproof but they were cheap to put up too!
W: You seem to know a lot of about his industrial career.
M: Actually even though I wrote about his other works,I did a lot of background reading.Let me see if I can dig up that paper for you.There were some books of articles included in my bibliography that you might want to look up at the library.
W: Thank you.It will be a great help for me.

听力原文：M: Oh, I just got some bad news today.
W: What happened, Tony？
M: Well, you know my job at the design studio？
W: Yes.
M: Well,...
W: Oh, no!
M: Oh, yes. Today the boss called me into his office and told me they had to lay me off indefinitely. That means as of April thirtieth, I'm out of work.
W: Oh!
M: No more job.
W: Tony, I am so sorry. You really liked working there.
M: Yeah, well, it's not all bad news. There's still a small chance that the company will call me back in the summer if the work picks up. You never know what'll happen. They may still need me then.
W: Oh, this is so sudden, isn't it？
M: Well, sort of. Two other employees lust their jobs last month, and I had a feeling I might be the next one in line. You know, I've only been working there ten months, so I don't have any seniority. If they're going to lay someone off, it's always going to be the newer employees first.
W: What are you going to do？
M: Like I said, I've still got a job until the end of the month. Starting in May, I plan to send out resumes and go on some inter views. Depending on the outcome of the interviews,...

听力原文：M: Hi, Anne. Please come in and take a seat.
W: Well, I can't stay long. I've still got these papers to mark, but I thought I'd check up your progress with the website.
M: Well, things are a little on hold right now. We've got a problem with the BBS. The free lance web designer was not as good as we initially thought she would be. She informed us last night that she could only do simple designing and that putting up a BBS is beyond her means.
W: Well, didn't you make a list of what you want from her at the beginning？
M: Not really, she was recommend by Jim and from what he told me, this lady sounded to be pretty qualified to do the job. I'm not asking for a terrific web design but to build up a structure with all the basic elements of web design.
W: Did you ask her why she wasn't frank with you in the beginning if she couldn't do the BBS？
M: I did. She said I didn't bring that up and that it was a communication problem. You know, I also realize that she is an amateur and is not what Jim has described exactly. That really gets me.
W: I know you must be feeling you're being cheated or something. So what do you plan to do now that she got the job half done？
M: I don't want to be mean but I, basically, I told her straight out I will not pay her full fees because she wasn't honest with me in the beginning and because of this it has costs me time and energy on this project since I have to search around for other people to complete the job.
W: That sounds fair. But I'm sure she must be very upset after all the work she's done.
M: Hey, but who's the loser here？ I don't think people should take up a job if it is not within their means to complete. That should teach her a lesson.
W: Well, it still means we need to find someone. I suggest we go back to our Dean and see if we can get extra funding somewhere in the Teacher Development Fund. Then we can get a professional to work at it.
M: We can try but I think we haven't got a hope in hell.
(23)
A．The designer couldn't handle the BBS.
B．The BBS failed.
C．The design was too bad.
D．The designer was out.

听力原文：W: Dr. Smith, thank you for coming to our program.
M: My pleasure.
W. When you said that the Internet is causing a decline in psychological well-being, what do you mean by that？
M: Well, psychologically, people are getting more depression and loneliness than before, especially for those who spend long time on the Internet.
W: So if people spend just a few hours a week on the Internet, they would not have the bad feeling then？
M: Not really. (22)Actually, it's not the long time on the Net that causes them feel bad but the state of being on the Net does.
W: But you said you had much brighter expectations at first.
M: Yes, (23) we supposed that the Net would prove to be socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others.
W: Then, why did the result turn to be completely contrary to your expectations？
M: Well, people on the Net do have more "virtual" communication, but (24)this kind of faceless and bodiless communication is less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation. And they reduce their time being with family and friends. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
W: The Internet should be found guilty of this phenomenon, right？
M: I don't think so. (25) It's not about the technology; it's about how it is used. It really points to the need for considering social factors in terms of how you design applications and services for technology.
(23)
A．Spending more hours on the Internet.
B．Spending fewer hours on the Internet.
C．Their brighter expectations not being met.
D．Their bad state of being on the Internet.

听力原文：M: Hey! How was your trip？
W: Wonderful! I spent most of my time at the art museum. I especially like the new wing. I was amazed to hear the guide explain the problems they had in building it.
M: Right. I just read an article that went on and on about the cost. 90 million total I think.
W: Yeah. The guide mentioned that. You could see they spared no expense.
M: Hm. It looked really unusal, at least from what I saw in the picture.
W: It is. The basic design is two triangles. In fact there are triangles all over. The paving stones in the courtyard, the skylights and even a lot of the sculptures. One sculpture is mobile. It's in the courtyard and it's made of pieces of aluminum that moves slowly in the air. It's really impressive.
M: That was in the article too. It said that the original was steel and it weighted so much that it wasn't safe to hand.
W: Right. They did it over in aluminum so it wouldn't come crashing down on someone's head.
M: You know the article went into that in detail. There was even an interview with the sculptor.
W: I'd like to read that. Would you mind if I borrow the magazine sometime？
M: No. I wouldn't mind of I haven't thrown it ont yet.
(20)
A．She was impressed by it.
B．It was a waste of money.
C．She was amazed it had opened so soon.
D．She didn't like it as much as the other wings.
第11题
W: Hmm, it sounds interesting. Please share with us. What does it mean？
M: Essentially, what it means is that as you are building a house, you try to leave the landscape feature on the land, especially the vegetation in the original condition. So what you are not doing is the usual practice of "land scraping". By which I mean literally scraping or cleaning the land of any and all the original plants.
W: Why is the approach called Envelop Building？
M: Good question! Because instead of clearing everything away, you let your original landscape elements envelop or surround your house. Let the vegetation physical features such as hills and slopes or interesting rock formations, constitute a significant part of the character of the building site. The design of the house should take these features of the land into account.
W: Any more information about Envelop Building？ Is it a recent technology？
M: Actually, integrating your original wild landscape with a house is not that new. The famous American architect Wright was doing it about 65 years ago. Envelop Building is not as easy as it sounds though. It's not just that you build your house and leave the land alone. By building, you are already damaging the original landscape. But as architects, we should try to work with environment, not against it. A creative architect can find ways to incorporate natural landscape into the overall design.
W: I guess this technology will be acknowledged by more architects.
(23)
A．Eliminating the original vegetation from the building site.
B．Making the houses in an area similar to one another.
C．Deciding where a house will be built.
D．Surrounding a building with wildflowers and plants.
