听力原文：M: Hey, Jane. What do you think of the art museum you visited last week？

W: It is wonderful, especially the new wing.

M: I have just read an article about that new wing and it says the cost is ninety million total. It's amazing, I think.

W: Yeah, the guide mentioned that. You could see they built it at all costs.

M: Hmm. It looks really unusual, at least from what I saw in the picture.

W: It's really impressive. There are triangles all over the paving stones in the courtyard, the skylights, and even a lot of the sculptures. All the sculptures are mobile and are made of pieces of aluminum that move slowly in the air. You'll like it, I bet.

M: The article said that, too. It was said the original was steel, and it weighed so much that it wasn't safe to hang.

W: Right. They used aluminum later so that those sculptures wouldn't come down on someone's head.

M: From the article, I also learned there appeared many other problems when they built it.

W: The article sounds interesting.

M: Yes, it went into every detail about the new wing. There was even an interview with the sculptor.

W: I'd like to read that. May I borrow your magazine？

M: Of course. Just come to my place and take it tonight.

听力原文：M: Hey, Jane. What's so interesting？

W: Oh, hi, Tom. (19)I'm reading this fascinating article on the societies of the Ice Age during the Pleistocene period.

M: The Ice Age？ There weren't any societies then, just the bunch of cave people.

W: That's what people used to think. (20)But a new exhibition at the American Museum of National History shows that Ice Age people were surprisingly advanced.

M: Oh, really？ In what ways？

W: Well, Ice Age people were the inventors of languages, art and music as we know it. And they didn't live in caves. They built their own shelters.

M: What did they use to build them？ The cold weather would have killed almost all the trees, so they couldn't have used wood.

W: In some of the places with warmer climate, they did build houses of wood. In other places, they used animal bones and skins or lived in natural stone shelters.

M: How did they stay warm？ Animal skin walls don't sound very sturdy.

W: Well, it says here, that in the early Ice Age, (21) they often faced their homes towards the south to take advantage of the sun, a primitive sort of solar heating.

M: Hey, that's pretty smart.

W: Then people in the late Ice Age even insulated their homes by putting heated cobble stones on the floor.

M: I guess I spoke too soon. (22)Can I read that magazine article after you've done？ I think I'm going to try to impress my anthropology teacher with my amazing knowledge of Ice Age civilization.
