SECTION A CONVERSATIONS
Directions: In this section you will hear several conversations. Listen to the conversations carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文:M: Oh, hello, Lee Dong. Come on in, and how have you been keeping recently?
W: Quite all right, thanks, Dr. Francis. How is your project going?
M: Very smoothly, I should say. I'm playing a consultancy role, really. I have only been here a month, but I'm already on very good terms with my colleagues in the Department of Computer Science. Well, I'm happy that you could come. Do sit down, please.
W: Dr. Francis, do you know I've got a chance to go to Cambridge in August? I wonder if you could tell me something about Britain.
M: Certainly. Well, I was actually brought up in Scotland. Erm, in fact, I've never been to Cambridge. But well...yes, I'm sure I can give you some useful tips. Now, what do you want to know, Lee Dong?
W: Things like weather. What's the usual temperature there?
M: Mmm, the temperature in Scotland is 22, or 23 degrees Centigrade on average, I think. But Cambridge would be warmer, around 25, I would guess, because it's down south.
W: Oh, that's nice. Do you know it is 34 here? Last year it reached 39. By the way, where do you think I should stay?
M: Oh, that's important. You can, er...I suppose, stay in the college-owned flats, which are often near where you have your classes, and some are even on the campus. That would certainly be convenient.
W: Yes, it would.
M: But it can also be a disadvantage because you are, in a sense, separate from ordinary society. You are a language teacher, and I think learning from society is a valuable experience.
W: Yes, yes, exactly, so what's the alternative?
M: Maybe finding an English family. I know of a student Ali from the Middle East. He told me that he had learned a lot by staying with a British family.
W: Thank you, I think it's quite a good suggestion. By the way, Dr. Francis, do you think I could...?

听力原文: An estimated eleven million or more people are living in the United States illegally. What to do about them is at the heart of the debate over immigration reform.
Yet questions about legal immigrants also remain unanswered. For example, should the United States open its doors to more skilled workers? Many employers would like that. Or should Congress lower the current limits, to get employers to hire more American citizens? Or would that only lead them to move more jobs to other countries.
What about a temporary worker program, as President Bush proposed?
Congress tried to pass an immigration reform. bill last year. But the Senate was unable to reach agreement. So, in place of legislative action, the administration announced new measures to increase border security and immigration enforcement. The steps include more workplace raids to catch illegal immigrants and higher civil fines for their employers.
According to this news, what is the main point of the debate over immigration reform?

A. What to do about the eleven million people who are living in the US illegally?
B. Should the US open its door to more skilled workers?
C. Should the Congress get employers to hire more American citizens?
D. Should the American employers move more jobs to other countries?

听力原文:G: Excuse me. Are you going to buy concert tickets?
D: Yes, I am. So are all these people in front of me.
G: Have you been here long?
D: About 45 minutes. I've moved forward a total of about 3 feet in that time.
G: You are kidding.
D: Not at all. There was a couple up ahead of me who got so disgusted they finally gave up and left. They said they've been waiting for more than an hour.
G: Terrific. Does any one know what's causing the delay?
D: If so, no one has let us know. It could be that there aren't enough people selling tickets this afternoon. Or maybe their computer is down. I'm sure the concert hasn't been cancelled.
G: I just hope they don't run out of tickets before I get up there.
D: That really would be annoying, wouldn't it?
G: I guess I should have come before lunch. Or has it been like this all day?
D: Apparently it has. In fact, before I came I tried calling to charge my tickets over the phone, just to avoid this long wait. But they are not taking phone orders, or checks, or credit cards. It's cash or nothing, and you have to come in person.
G: Well, there are two more hours before the tickets office closes. Tickets for a good concert are worth waiting for. So I think I'll just make myself comfortable.
