2002年5月托福听力文字

　　Part A

　　1．   M: I think I'll run down to the bookstore and get a few things

　　W: But aren't we going to meet Shirley at the student center? She is expecting us at 4. And it's almost that now.

　　2．   W: Congratulations! I heard about your new job.

　　M: Thanks. Nearly perfect for me. It's really interesting. The hours are ideal and it's an easy walk from home. If only the pay were half as good as everything else.

　　3．   W: Do you know anyone who is driving to the conference in Boston next weekend?

　　M: Pete is. I think he has room for another person.

　　4．   M: Did I hear you say you are using the newspaper in your political science class? I was wondering if when you finish it, you can pass it onto me?

　　W: Well, we do use it in class. But I always read the copy in the library.

　　5．   W: I noticed you haven't been getting along well with your roommate lately.

　　M: You got that right. And it's going to be a long time before I feel comfortable with him again.

　　6．   W: How did you ever manage to get through all 1000 pages of that new spy thriller?

　　M: It took a while. But once I had started it, I couldn't put it down.

　　7．   M: Hi, XXX, how are you doing? I heard you had an operation over the spring break.

　　W: Yes, XXX, thanks for asking. I was pretty much out of condition for a few weeks. Bit finally I'm back in my feet again.

　　8．   W: How about a little tennis? Say Saturday or Sunday?

　　M: It sounds great. I could use a good workout. It seems like all I have been doing lately is sitting in front of this computer.

　　9．   W: Did you read today's newspaper? I heard there is something about a new wonder drug.

　　M: I did read an article about medical researchers being on the verge of a major breakthrough.

　　10.   M: Where have you been? We were supposed to meet at the library half an hour ago.

　　W: Yeah, I'm really sorry. I guess I just lost track of the time.

　　11.   M: I'm sorry. But you can't take your camera inside. You'll have to leave it here and pick it up after the concert.

　　W: Well, I guess it's too late to take it back to the car. Please be careful with it. It belongs to my roommate. She'll never forgive me if anything happens to it.

　　12.   M: The application instructions say to enclose a check or money order for twenty dollars. But I don't have a checking account.

　　W: You can just pick up a money order at the post office.

　　13.   M: You know, I really think you should run for class president.  Everybody knows you and likes you. And you got some great ideas.

　　W: Thanks. I have thought about it. I'm taking six classes and working a part-time job. That's about all I can handle right now.

　　14.   M: I'm having a few friends over for a lunch tomorrow. It'll be great if you can join us.

　　W: I doubt I'll be able to make it. My brother is leaving for Chicago tomorrow afternoon. And I promised to give him a ride to the airport.
