[32:44.16]Part C:Directions:In this part you will hear three short passages.
[32:52.66]Each passage will be read twice. After each passage you should pause the recorder and try to write down its main points in your own words.
[33:03.74]Tim met Susan at a dance about six months ago. They get along well together since they like music,
[33:13.39]dancing, swimming, and tennis. But whenever Tim starts to get serious about their relationship and tries to discuss with her how she feels about him or whether they might consider marriage, she gets angry and refuses to talk about it.
[33:31.14]The history of plastics is longer than you might expect. In fact the first man-made plastic ever to appear on the market was made over a hundred years ago.
[33:42.30]It was discovered both by an Englishman and by an American in the same year.
[33:48.46]But it was the American who first manufactured it on a large scale during the 1860s.
[33:54.76]Health is more important than wealth. Those who are rich but poor in health are no more fortunate than those who are poor,
[34:04.12]but healthy in body. If you want your wish to come true, health is the most important component of your success.
[34:13.62]Part D:Directions:In this part you will hear two passages. Each passage will be read twice.
[34:24.20]At the end of each passage you will hear some questions. After you hear a question, you should either decide which of the four choices is the best answer to the question you heard,
[34:36.70]or answer the question in your own words according to the passage.
[34:41.63]The questions you should answer are also printed in your book, but you should read them only after you hear them from the tape.
[34:50.45]W1:Where are you going for your holidays this year, Ann? Spain again?
[34:57.07]W2:Well, I don't actually know yet. It's going to depend on how much time we have off and how much cash we can manage to save by next July.
[35:06.65]W1:John doesn't want to be away too long this year.
[35:10.43]W2:Business not so good then?
[35:12.59]W1:Well, he says he'd prefer not to go abroad, just in case something crops up at work and he has to deal with it.
[35:20.76]W2:You hear so much about unemployment and redundancies nowadays,
[35:25.12]it makes me wonder whether I'm wasting my time training for secretarial work.
[35:30.52]W1:I'm sure you're not. Do you still smoke, Ann? I know you're trying to give it up.
[35:36.92]W2:That's right, and I'm still trying! So no thanks! I must be strong.
[35:43.62]W1:Good for you. I wish I could give it up. It's such an expensive habit and it doesn't do you any good.
[35:51.43]Do you mind if I smoke?
[35:53.48]W2:No, no. Go ahead.
[35:55.57]W1:No, business isn't exactly booming at the moment.
[36:00.50]It must be the first time in ages that we aren't planning a holiday abroad.
[36:05.94]How's your secretarial course going?
[36:08.96]There must be lots of jobs around for well-trained secretaries, surely?
[36:14.04]W2:It's not that easy to find a job.
[36:17.06]W1:John's always saying they need at least one more secretary at the office.
[36:22.46]The one he's got now is retiring, I think.
[36:25.52]W2:In that case, don't forget me.
[36:28.91]W1:No, of course not. Look, why don't you jot down your qualifications on a piece of paper and then I can...
[36:37.08]Oh, here's John. I don't think you two know each other, so let me introduce you.
[36:42.84]John, this is Ann.
[36:45.00]W2:Hello, John, pleased to meet you.  (303 words)
[36:47.88]Q13.Which of the following is probably true about John according to the conversation?
[36:57.92]Q14.Which of the following is true about the two speakers?
[37:04.84]Q15.What are the three main topics the speakers deal with?
[37:11.17]Q16.How is the general economic situation, judging from the conversation? And Why?
[37:20.21]In all economic systems today, most businesses of any size rely on one system of organization: the division of labor.
[37:30.07]This means that the workers are specialized. Each worker has a particular duty to perform as one part of the whole operation.
