M: Oh, hi, Cathy, sure. What's up?
W: Well, I've been meaning to talk to you about the situation in the office.
M: I'm not in that very often. It's so noisy that 1 can't work.
W: That's exactly what I'm getting at. We're supposed to be able to do our preparation and nmrking in that office. But have you notice? Jack constantly has students coming in to get help with his course. A lot of people are going in and out.
M: Has anybody spoken to him about it?
W: No, not yet. But someone's going to have to.
M: We can't really ask him to stop having students come in for help, can we?
W: No, of course not. But I'm not able to do my work and neither are you. I imagine it's the same for the others in the office.

W: You mean that little storage room? Oh, that would be too small. Mi Are you sure? With the cabinets taken out, it might be bigger than it looks.

听力原文：M: Hey Linda, did you get that letter about the new options for food service next year? W: Not yet. Are there a lot of changes?M: There sure are. Instead of paying one fee to cover all meals for the whole school year, we will now be able to choose how many per week we want and can contract for just that amount. We still have to pay for the whole year at the beginning. But we can choose to buy seven, ten, fourteen or twenty-one meals per week. They give you a card with the number of meals you get for a week marked on it. W: That's a big change Tom. And a complicated system. M: Yeah. But it will be much better for people who don't eat three meals a day, seven days a week in the cafeteria because they won't have to pay for meals they don't eat. W: So what's the deal for those who do eat at school all the time? M: It's better for them too. Because the more meals you contract for, the cheaper each one is.W: I see. It still sounds rather complicated. M: True. It took me several hours to figure it out. I decided to go with the ten-meal plan. W: Why is that? M: Well, I never eat breakfast and I often go away on weekends. So the ten-meal plan gives me lunch and dinner every weekday at a fairly low price. And I won't be paying for meals I don't usually eat.W: And what about the weekend when you are on campus?M: Well, there are often guests on campus on weekends. So they allow you to huy single meals on a walk-in basis on Saturdays and Sundays. The price per meal is much higher in that way. But I am away so much that it will still be less money for me to pay single prices on tile weekends rather than sign up for the fourteen meal a week plan. W: Oh, I guess I'll have to sit down and figure out my eatting pattern so 1 can get the best deal.What's the main feature of the new method of paying for meals?A．All students pay the same amount per year.B．Students choose how many meals a week they will pay for.C．Students get money back for meals they don't eat.D．Some students get free meals.

SECTION B PASSAGESDirections: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.听力原文： The diamond is considered the most famous and valuable jewel in the world. Diamonds were made as a result of great volcanic heat and pressure. A volcano is a mountain with a hole in the top. When a volcano is very active it sometimes explodes and causes great damage. Diamonds were pushed towards the surface of the earth millions of years ago by a number of great volcanic explosions. It is in the narrow volcanic pipes that diamonds are found. They are also found among the sand and stones of certain river beds, and in a few places on the floor of the sea. For they were washed down the mountain sides by the rain. Diamonds are very rare. There are not many diamond pipes or diamond producing rivers in the world. During the last century adventurers from Europe went to Brazil, because they had heard that there were diamonds in the River Amazon. Many of these early diamond miners died of illness or were lost forever in the great forests. But some returned home rich.The earliest known diamonds were found in India many centuries ago. The most recent and exciting discoveries have been made in eastern Russia. But most of the world’s diamonds now come from the Congo, from Tanzaniz, which has the largest diamond mine in the world and from south Africa.Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the speaker?A．Diamond-producing rivers are located near the mountain sides.B．Diamonds couldn’t be formed without great heat and pressure of the volcano.C．Volcano explosions brought some diamonds up to the surface of the earth.D．Explosions of the volcano can damage diamonds as well.
