解析：

第一节 1．W : Where are you from? 　　M: I'm English, but I've been living in the U. S. and Canada for nine years. 2．W: Will the concert begin at 6:30 or 7:00? 　　M: It will begin at 7:00 and end at 8:30. 3．W: I think it is going to rain. 　　M: Going to rain? The ground is already wet! 4．W: How long will your uncle be staying with you? 　　M: Just about a week or so. 5．W: It's a quarter to four. In another half an hour we'll be home. 　　M: I'm glad we'll be home soon. 第二节 6．W: Hi, my name is Rose. I've booked a haircut for 3:00 p. m. 　　M: Yes, come right this way. How would you like your hair cut? 　　W: Can you make it look like this photo? 　　M: You mean this one? 　　W : Yes. 　　M: But, you know, I'm afraid it doesn't suit your face very well. 　　W: Oh, no, I like it very much and I want to have it. 　　M: OK, since you insist. First, have your hair washed. Come this way, please. 　　W: OK. Please make me look beautiful. I would go to have dinner tonight and that's very important to me. 　　M: No problem. I'll do my best. 7．M: Excuse me, could you help me? 　　W: Yes, what seems to be the problem? 　　M: Well, I was wondering if anyone has turned in a passport. 　　W: I'm afraid not. Have you lost your passport? 　　M: I think so. 　　W: Have you checked carefully? 　　M: Yes, but I can't find it anywhere in my hotel room, and I remember this was the last place where I used it yesterday. 　　W: Where exactly did you use your passport in our store? 　　M: In the shoe department. I had to show it to pay for the shoes with my traveler's checks. 　　W: Well, let me call the shoe department to see if they've found any passports. 　　M: Thank you. 8．M: Excuse me, do you have any maps of the downtown area? 　　W: Yes, we do. Here you are. 　　M: Thank you. Can you tell me where the Red House Hotel is? 　　W : Yes. It's right here. 　　M : About how much does it cost to go there by taxi? 　　W : It's probably at least 15 dollars. I suggest you take a bus to the hotel. It's only seven dollars. 　　M: Where can we catch the bus? 　　W: It's just outside the door. Take a No. 30 bus. That bus will take you to the Red House Hotel. 　　M: Thank you very much. 9．M: I like this picture, but it is really hard for me to accept the price. 　　W: Oh, sir, don't you think the price is quite fair? 　　M: Quite fair? You mean $ 20 for such a small picture is fair? 　　W : Of course. Look at the picture. It is perfect, isn't it? 　　M: Yes, but the price is still too high. Could you lower it a bit? 　　W: OK, since you insist. How about $ 18? 　　M: $ 13. I'll take it then. 　　W : $ 13? That is so low a price that I can't accept. 　　M: OK, then I will add to $ 15. No more. 　　W: Well, then, that's a deal. 10．M or W: It's fun to imagine humans in other worlds. They would probably look so different. We might not recognize them as human beings at all. Living things have a wonderful way of adapting in order to stay alive. Plants grow in the Arctic. Some simple animals can live in hard conditions. Some creatures live in the blackest deeps of the sea under thousands of tons of pressure. We can't really say that our kind of air is the only kind living things can breathe, or that they must have water or a certain climate. Creatures that breathe other gases or live in other temperatures, however, certainly won't look like us.
