錄音錄音稿：
Text 1M: It’s strange being back in school.  W: What do you mean?
M: I think it’s tough to get used to studying, meeting new people, and taking notes again after being on vacation for so long.
Text 2W: Could you drive me to my doctor’s appointment tomorrow, Jesse?
M: I’d love to, Theresa, but the problem is that my car is in the shop.
Text 3W: Uh oh, I think my cell phone is about to die.
M: Don’t worry. I charged mine before we left the house.
W: Thank goodness. My mother called me three times. I don’t want her to worry.
Text 4W: Next Sunday, I want to have a party for my birthday.
M: A birthday party? Nancy wanted to throw one for you, but I told her I would do it, so don’t worry about it.
Text 5M: Do you mean that both of your parents work?
W: So what? Only 10% of American families have a traditional working father and a stay-at-home mother.
Text 6M: I bought a pumpkin, and I am planning to make it into a lantern tomorrow.
W: Oh, that’s right. Halloween is coming!
M: Yeah, the school is letting us use the gym for the Halloween party. I am so excited about it, but I have not decided what to wear this year. I don’t want to wear a plain old vampire costume like last year. Have you decided what you’re going to wear? You looked so great in that Cat Woman costume last year.
W: Me? No, I’m still not sure. Last year’s party was great, but I will be at home with my family this year.
Text 7W: Mr. Davidson, what is a leader in your opinion?
M: Uh, well, um, a leader is someone who... leads, I guess. It’s someone who, uh, sets a good example, uh... for others.
W: OK. What kinds of leadership qualities do you think this position requires?
M: Hmm, I would have to say that... uh, this position, uh... well, someone who is strong and can think quickly and... W: Do you think you are qualified, Mr. Davidson?
M: Oh, yeah, I’m, like, totally qualified! I would do a great job, for sure, as long as I get paid enough. Can I, uh, ask one question?    W: Go ahead, Mr. Davidson.
M: Where is the bathroom? I must have had too much water today!
W: (Sigh) It’s right down the hall. Go ahead and see yourself out afterwards. We will let you know.
Text 8W: Dad, can I have a car?
M: Sweetheart, we talked about this. Owning a car is a big responsibility. Gas is pretty expensive nowadays. You also have to maintain your car properly, and that means...
W: Yeah, I know, Dad! You’ve told me a thousand times! But how am I supposed to be independent if you always drive me places?   M: Well, I feel more comfortable knowing that you’re safe.
W: Do you know how embarrassing it is to have your father drop you off at the mall? All my friends have cars of their own already!
M: Don’t all of your friends have jobs of their own, too? W: Well, yeah, I guess, but...
M: And haven’t your friends kept their grades up all through high school?  W: Uh... yeah.
M: Well, you show me a report card of straight A’s and two paychecks from a new job, and then we’ll talk about a car for you.        W: What? That’s so unfair!
M: Life isn’t fair sometimes. But you’ll appreciate your future car if you earn it. Why don’t we look through some car magazines so you can see what you are working toward?
Text 9M: This is quite a nice pool, isn’t it?       W: I’ll say. Is this your first time in this hotel?
M: Oh, no. I stay here every time I’m in New York on business. What about you?
W: This is my first time here without my family. I decided that I just wanted some time for myself this weekend. M: Good for you! My name is Bernard Smith, but you can call me Bernie.
W: Hi, Bernie! I’m Jane.
M: Nice to meet you. So, Jane, what do you think is the best part of this hotel? I mean, seeing as how you’re a bit of an expert and all...
W: Well, I wouldn’t say I’m an expert, but the service here is much better than at most other hotels. Considering the price of the rooms here, you might not expect the service to be anything special, but I feel like I am treated like a queen whenever I’m here.
M: I agree that the service is great, but my favorite thing about this place has got to be the breakfast. I mean, have you seen so many choices anywhere else?
W: Well, you have a point there, Bernie. I do love eating breakfast here, and I guess I usually talk about it whenever people ask me how my trip to New York was.
Text 10So I was walking around Beijing the other day when I saw a sign for The Bookworm. It’s a really cool café that also has great food, and sometimes they have music and other special events. Well, it just so happened that there was a literary festival going on that featured writers and photographers working in China, and I saw that Peter Hessler was going to be speaking at the festival at 7:30 that very night! Peter Hessler is probably my favorite writer at the moment; he used to write about China for The New Yorker, a famous American magazine, and he also wrote three books about his experiences living and working in Beijing. His writing is really funny and super clever, and I was so excited to hear him speak that I went right over to The Bookworm, grabbed a seat at the bar, and waited for him to arrive. I waited and waited, but he still was a no-show. Finally, at 8:30, I asked one of the staff when he was supposed to be there. “Peter Hessler?” the guy replied. “He’s not supposed to be here tonight. He was here last year, though.” It was then that I realized my mistake. I had come on the right day, just not in the right year!
