解析:
录音原文: Text 1 M:I really like this table, Marie.The wood is beautiful, and it looks like it will last a hundred years. W:I agree with you, but I'm not sure we can afford it right now, Thomas. Text 2 M:Did Henry plant all the trees himself? W:He planned to, but he hurt his hand when he rode a bike.So I did instead of him. Text 3 W:Trent, I've got something to tell you.I got fired today. M:What?! You just got promoted last week! How could they do this to you?! W:April Fool's! Text 4 W:You mistook the salt for sugar? I told you the salt was in the black container and the sugar was in the white one. M:Yes, that was so silly of me.I forgot that you told me, and I couldn't tell the difference at the time.This coffee is terrible now! Text 5 M:Mars moves slower than the Earth. W:Yes.A day on Mars is 37 minutes longer than a day on the Earth. Text 6 M:Good morning, Native Tongue Translations.Can I help you? W:Yes.I was wondering how much it would cost to translate a document from English into Arabic. M:Well, it depends on the kind of document, how long it is, and when you need it returned. W:It's a cookbook about 20000 words long.It is not urgent, so you can take your time. M:Well, Madam, Arabic is one of the most difficult languages in the world, and there aren't very many translators compared to, say, Spanish.In other words, the charge for Arabic translation will be higher than for most other languages. W:I understand.Could you give me an estimate? M:For this project, we would charge between five and ten cents per word. W:OK.Thanks for your time.I think I'll keep looking. Text 7 M:Hello? W:Hi, my name is Kelsey Adams.I'm calling about the TV. M:Oh, hi! So you saw my ad in the newspaper? W:That's right.My old TV just stopped working, so I think this might be great for both of us! M:I hope so.It's a 50-inch Sony flat screen TV, and it's only 6 months old.I'm asking for 500 bucks, but I'd be willing to negotiate. W:It sounds like a decent deal, but I would have to see it first, of course. M:Absolutely.When can you come over to take a look at it? W:How about 3∶00 p.m.this afternoon? M:Hmm, I've got a meeting at 2∶00 p.m.and it might run a little late.How does 4∶00 p.m.sound? W:Perfect.Just tell me your address. Text 8 M:Hey, did you see China's women's volleyball team on television last night? W:Yes, the game was so exciting! I usually watch basketball, but that was great last night! M:Definitely a good effort! If anything, I was disappointed that the other team didn't put up much of a fight.They made a lot of bad mistakes, and they always seemed to be hitting the ball out of bounds. W:I just enjoyed how China celebrated after every point they won.Volleyball seems so much more passionate compared to other sports. M:Well, their victory means they will compete in the Olympics next year, which was their goal.I just hope they can pick up at least a bronze medal. W:Bronze? You mean gold, right? M:Well, that would be great, but there are a couple of very strong teams that beat China in a recent competition. W:I saw those matches-they were extremely close! China can beat them next year for sure! M:We'll see.I hope you're right.But you never know what will happen in sports. W:Exactly! They might surprise you! Then what will you say? M:Ha ha, OK, let's just wait and see. Text 9 M:Ms.Robertson, for the past three weeks, I have been getting complaints about your work. W:Uh, what do you mean? What kind of complaints? M:Well, your supervisor told me you're turning your reports in 2 to 3 days late, you're often absent from staff meetings, and you haven't been getting along with your colleagues. W:Look, Mr.Travers, I can explain... M:Ms.Robertson, I know you have been with us for a while now, but this business is changing fast.We need people who can keep up and work as a team. W:Mr.Travers, my mother was just diagnosed with stomach cancer.I've been spending all my time outside of work at the hospital with her, and I even had to leave work early because she went into emergency surgery and I had to sign some papers.I've been so exhausted, and then Morrison from accounting made a joke the other day about cancer victims losing their hair and... M:Oh…I had no idea, Ms.Robertson. W:I know my work has suffered these past few weeks, but I promise I will make up for it! M:Listen, why don't you take a couple of days off? It's much more important that you be with your mother while she is recovering. W:Really, sir? Thank you so much! M:My pleasure.And I'll have a word with Morrison.That kind of talk has no place in this office! Text 10 Good afternoon, shoppers!
