It’s 1343 King Street． 　　(Text 3) 　　M：I need some stamps and some envelopes as well． 　　W：Will you step right over to the second window, please? 　　(Text 4) 　　M：The work is rather hard, but it’s interesting． 　　W：Mine isn’t hard, but it’s not so interesting． 　　M：What do you do? 　　W：I work in a publishing house． 　　(Text 5) 　　W：I’ve run out of money． 　　M：How much money do you need? 　　W：Ten pounds．No, eight will be enough． 　　(Text 6) 　　W：Good afternoon, Bob! 　　M：Good afternoon Mary! How was the party last night? Did you have a good time? 　　W：Yes, it was a lot of fun． 　　M：What about Barbara? Was she there? 　　W：Yes, she enjoyed it a lot, too．By the way, I didn’t see you．Where were you? 　　M：Me? Oh, I stayed at home． 　　W：Why didn’t you go? 　　M：I wasn’t invited．That’s why． 　　(Text 7) 　　W：What do you think of my new dress? 　　M：It is very nice．When did you get it? 　　W：Last Thursday．Guess how much it cost． 　　M：I can’t．I am not good at guessing prices． 　　W：Have a try． 　　M：Hmm．…let’s see．A hundred yuan? 　　W：No, guess again． 　　M：A hundred and twenty? 　　W：No． 　　M：I give up．How much did you spend on it? 　　W：50 yuan． 　　M：Is that all? 　　W：Yes． 　　(Text 8) 　　Rodio and television are very popular in the world today．Millions of people watch TV．TV is of course more useful than radio．On TV people can see and hear what is happening in the world． 　　Now radio is still with us．And the number of listeners is becoming larger．One reason for this is the invention of the transistor radio．A transistor radio is easy to carry．You can put it in your pocket and listen to it on the bus or on your bike when you go to work． 　　Radio is better for blind people, for old people whose sight is not good enough to watch TV, and for people who are busy working．What is more radio is much cheaper than TV． 　　(Text 9) 　　W：I think we ought to turn round and head back home． 　　M：Tired just after a few kilometers of cycling? 　　W：Not at all．But look at the clouds building up there． 　　M：So?

From your geography teacher? 　　(Text 10) 　　A student is learning to speak British English．He wonders：Can I communicate with Americans? Can they understand me? Learners of English often ask：What are the differences between British and American English? How important are these differences? 　　Certainly, there are some differences between British and American English．There are a few differences in grammar．For example, the British say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans say “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation is sometimes different．Americans usually sound the r’s in words like “bird” and “hurt”．Some speakers of British English do not sound the r’s in these words．There are differences between British and American English in spelling and vocabulary．For example, “colour” and “honour” are British．“color” and “honor” are American． 　　These differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling, and vocabulary are not important, however．For the most part, British and American English are the same language． 　　听录音,请回答21～25题。 　　Good morning everyone．I am getting very excited about this trip to Greece, and I am sure you are too．We’ll leave London Airport on British Airways next Friday．Please be sure to be at the airport by 6∶30．I know it is early, but our departure time is 8∶45．We are quite a large group, and we don’t want to have any hassles．Please be sure to have all your travel documents ready．We’ll arrive in Athens at 12∶25 in the afternoon, and there will be a coach there to meet US． That’s all．Thank you．Don’t hesitate to ask me if you have any questions．Have a nice trip! Zoos are making efforts to raise and produce pandas, but this is very difficult．Also, baby pandas weigh only 100 grams at birth, so they need to be looked after very carefully．Since 1963 about 50 baby pandas have been born in zoos, and around half of them are still alive today．
