听力原文:W: So Tom, what do you think about children today having mobile phones?M: Mobile phones? Well, I think it could be a good thing. I mean for safety reasons.W: Really?M: Yes, if I were a parent, I think I would feel safer knowing that my child had a mobile phone and I could get in touch with him whenever I need to, and if something happens like an emergency, then he will be able to use the mobile phone. W: It sounds reasonable. But I would argue that it is quite dangerous actually. M: That is an interesting point. How would you think it will be dangerous? W: Because children don’t really have the best attention spans anyway and often they could, for example, walk into the road whilst they are talking on their mobile phones and generally pay no attention. What if there were some cars just at that moment? So I don’t think it is very safe for them. M: Well, that’s a good point, but that could also teach them responsibility as well.(8)If mobile phones are unsafe, bicycles could be unsafe and toys could be unsafe, but that’s all part of growing up and I think that if you teach them responsibility, it shouldn’t be a big problem. W: But I think fewer children these days play on bikes than they used to. I think children are more dependent upon technology and I see that as a definite negative thing because children don’t play out as they used to. They just stay in and watch TV and play computer games. M: True, true. I suppose so, but you know technology is a necessity in our lives and in the future. If we want them to become competent in using technology and taking advantage of technology, then I think it would be a good way to start. W: Don’t you think they are really expensive though? M: Oh yeah, they are. A new mobile phone will cost at least several thousand. Do you think it is really worth it? W: Not really. It is much better to spend money on more meaningful things, like education or even entertainment. M: I can’t agree more. W: If I were a parent, I would not want my child to phone people too often because it would cost so much money. M: Well, you could be right about that.(10-1)They do cost a lot of money. W:(10 -2)Oh, I’m glad
you agree. Well, yeah, at least we agree about something now. M: For sure. 6. What does the man think about children having mobile phones?7.

听力原文:M: Ruth, what is something you are afraid of? Like snakes, spiders or rats?W: Probably sharks.M: Sharks? Why sharks? I don’t think people can get close to sharks very easily.W: I know that sounds quite irrational. I don’t live near the sea, but the thought of being eaten by a shark often appears in my mind. It’s horrific. I’m really very frightened every time I think of sharks. M:(1 - 1)Have you ever seen a shark? W:(1 -2)No. Thankfully. I think I’d run a mile. I have just seen them in some movies. So what are you afraid of? Anything that frightens you just like a shark does to me? M: I don’t know what I’m really afraid of. I guess I don’t like heights too much. Yeah, so I have to admit that when I’m on a plane I get kind of freaked out. When I fly, I keep thinking “How is this thing staying in the air?” And then it makes me too nervous to enjoy my flight.W: So I guess you’re always happy to land.M: Yeah, yeah. Always, always, very happy to land, and often when 1 go home I have to fly across the Pacific and there’s no land so you look out of your window and you think,(2)” Ah, if something goes wrong with the plane we can’t land anymore” , but that’s very irrational because most accidents, I think, happen over mountains. W: Even if you landed in the sea, there might be sharks. M: That’s true. How do you feel when you fly? W: I quite like flying actually. I mean I’m quite used to flying. I’ve flown to a lot of places.(3)If it’s a long haul flight, I guess it’s a bit boring, but I like the handheld computer you get to play with. M: Yeah, those are nice. W: They’re good. M: So what’s the food like? I know that you’re a vegetarian. How do you like the food during flights? W: Oh, well, the last time I flew I didn’t get any vegetarian food. I think I forgot to tell them, so I had to eat the chicken, whatever. M: Really, you actually ate the chicken?W: No, I didn’t eat it. Actually, I just had it in front of me.M: Yeah, I heard that the vegetarian meals are actually better than the chicken or beef meal. W: Really, they’re quite good.M: Well, it was really an interesting conversation we had today.W: Absolutely. Everybody is afraid of something, aren’t they? It is quite normal.M: Yeah, we’re just humans after all. We have likes and dislikes. That just makes our life more colorful!1. What do we know about the woman?2. Why is the

W: Well, for somebody who’s going to travel for the first time, what type of advice would you give him, in case he gets lost? M:(6)Ah, getting lost. Yeah, that happens all the time. You have to prepare for that. (7 - 1)One of the first things I do whenever I get to an airport is I see if I can get a map from the information center, or when I go to_a_hotel, I ask if they have a map of the area. W: That’s quite considerate. M:(7 -2)When I want to go somewhere, I ask them to write the destination in the local language, and also I practice my pronunciation with them, and sometimes I’ll get a business card from the hotel. W: OK, well, let’s say that, um, you’re on business in a foreign country, and you’re really busy and you forget to get the business card, you don’t have the map, you’re trying to find a place and you’re completely lost, what should you do? M: Well, of course, you’ve got to ask people.(8)And it’s a good idea to ask a lot of different people because in some countries people don’t want to say no, and they don’t want to say “I don’t know” , either. They may give you the wrong directions. W: Well, so when you’re going down the street, and say you are lost, is there a certain person who is better at giving directions? M: Um, well, if it’s a child, and you want to get to a business section or something, probably he doesn’t know. It’s a good idea to ask some adults who look as if they live in the area. W: Right. So you’re talking about people who work in shops and things like that? M:(9)Yes, and also, delivery men are usually very good, because they have to go all over the city, so they know it well. W: Right. So have you actually ever been lost? M: Oh, I’ve been lost all the time. Once I got lost for a couple of hours in Bangkok and it was terrible. W: Well, that’s a densely populated city. M:(10)Yeah, so after that, it gave me the idea that I should always check for landmarks. You know landmarks are really tall buildings, or a river, something I could always know, and I could see easily. W: Well, it sounds like good advice. Thanks Greg. M: You’re welcome.6.
