[01:48.36]4. It\'s only a fraction of the cost, about a sixteenth.
[01:54.78]5. Divide nine by two and you get four point five.

[02:08.08]C. Asking for Advice:
[02:15.58]1. I have to get a new pair of jeans. Is there anywhere ...?
[02:14.58]Do you know a, a good shop where I can get a pair?
[02:20.06]2. Look, er, I want something interesting.
[02:25.18]All I\'ve eaten since Vve arrived here is junk food. I want some good local food.
[02:30.35]Where should I go and what shall I ask for?
[02:35.84]3. The car\'s giving problems again. I had it serviced last week but it\'s as bad as it was before.
[02:45.45]I don\'t know what to do about it.
[02:51.09]4. Ooh, yes, I need your advice.
[02:53.84]The problem is that I have to go to this very formal dinner party next week and I haven\'t got a dinner suit here.
[03:01.94]I really don\'t want to buy one. What do you suggest?
[03:08.96]5. Ever since I\'ve been here I had this stomach problem, you know. I mean, it\'s not serious. Well, I don\'t think it is.
[03:17.87]I mean, you often get these things when you travel. Must be the different water or something.
[03:22.47]But it really is a nuisance and it seems to be getting worse ...
[03:27.22]6. Damn! I\'ve lost my wallet!
[03:38.66]Section Two:
[03:40.57]A. Telegram:
[03:49.95]Man: Telegram, miss.
[03:51.31]Jean: Oh, thanks.
[03:52.59]Jean: I wonder who it\'s from. Oh, it\'s for Helen. Helen, there\'s a telegram for you.
[03:59.59]Helen: For me? Oh, Jean, will you open it? I hate opening telegrams.
[04:05.94]Jean: Do you? Why?
[04:07.19]Helen: Well, it\'s just that I think a telegram must mean bad news.
[04:11.47]Jean: I\'m just the opposite. I love opening telegrams because I\'m sure they must mean something exciting.
[04:16.96]Jean: Helen, you\'d better sit down. You aren\'t going to believe this. It says, \'Congratulations, Nurse of the Year. Letter follows.
[04:34.25]Helen: It can\'t be true.
[04:36.08]Jean: Here. You read it.

[04:59.77]That\'s Monday morning of the 10th of August.
[05:02.20]Um, if you can\'t make that time, could you please give us a ring?
[05:05.57]The interview will be with myself and Brian Shaw, so we, um, we look forward to seeing you then. Bye-bye.
[05:13.54]C. Henry:
[05:18.16]"Henry!"
[05:19.39]"Yes, dear?"
[05:20.65]"I\'m going up to bed now. Don\'t forget to do your little jobs.\'
[05:25.06]"No, dear."
[05:26.16]Henry turned off the television and went into the kitchen. He fed the cat, washed up several dishes, dried them and put them away.
[05:35.93]Then he put the cat out, locked all the doors and turned out all the lights.
[05:41.44]When he got to the bedroom, his wife was sitting up in bed reading a book and eating chocolates.
[05:47.73]"Well dear, have you done all your little jobs?"
[05:51.63]"I think so, my love."
[05:53.14]"Have you fed the cat?"
[05:54.74]"Yes, dear."
[05:56.15]"Have you put him out?"
[05:57.64]"Yes, dear."
[05:59.10]"Have you washed up the dishes?"
[06:01.24]"Yes, dear."
[06:02.52]"Have you put them all away?"
[06:04.37]"Yes, dear."
[06:05.79]"Have you tidied the kitchen?"
[06:08.06]"Yes, dear."
[06:09.36]"Have you turned out all the lights?"
[06:11.30]"Yes, dear.\'
[06:12.97]"Have you locked the front door?"
[06:14.90]"Yes, dear."
[06:16.34]"Then you can come to bed."
[06:18.32]"Thank you, dear."
[06:20.57]After a little while they heard a gate banging downstairs.
[06:24.80]\'Henry."
[06:25.93]"Yes, dear.\'
[06:27.44]"I\'m afraid you\'ve forgotten to shut the garden gate."
[06:30.86]"Oh dear! ...\'
[06:36.53]D. Radio Talk:
[06:41.55]--Ladies and gentlemen, it\'s the Lake Late Talk Show, with your host, Dickie Reeves. (applause)
[06:53.64]--Nice to be with you again, folks.
[06:56.99]And among the line of interesting guests I\'ll show you tonight is the lady you\'ve all been reading and hearing about recently.
[07:03.31]She is beautiful. She is clever. And she is brave. She is the lady who makes friends with monkeys.
[07:09.45]She is with us tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, the apewoman herself, Josephin Carter.
[07:18.48](applause) Hello, Josephin, or can I call you Joe?
[07:22.48]--Please do.
[07:23.16]--The first question that I know everybody has been dying to ask you is, how long have you been living with monkeys?
[07:28.91]--Apes actually. Well, I\'ve been studying apes for quite a long time, ever since I was at university.
[07:35.15]But I\'ve only been actually living with them for five years.
[07:38.62]--Five years in the African jungle, with only monkeys to talk to.
[07:41.94]--Apes actually.
[07:43.51]--Oh, with only apes to talk to. That\'s fantastic! And I know you\'ve going back to your monkey colony ...
[07:49.36]--Ape colony actually.
[07:50.72]--... to finish your work.
[07:52.34]--Oh, yes. I haven\'t finished it yet.
[07:54.25]Although I have been recording their behavior and watching their movements very closely,
[07:58.74]I Still haven\'t finished my work. I%e also been training my husband to work with me.
[08:03.41]--Your husband?
[08:02.41]--Yes. He\'s come with me tonight. Let me introduce you to Tarsan!
[08:07.59]--Hi, everybody.
[08:12.50]E. Mr. Pollard and the Solicitor:
[08:18.90]People think that all solicitors are rich and prosperous.
[08:23.50]In any town there are, of course, rich and prosperous solicitors,
[08:28.38]but there are also solicitors like me. I am neither rich nor prosperous.
[08:33.63]I have an office over a fish and chip shop, for which I pay an exorbitant rent,
[08:38.78]and two rather inefficient secretaries.
[08:41.81]I suppose it is because my premises are in the less fashionable part of the town,
[08:47.24]but my clients always seem to have enormous problems and miserable incomes. Mr. Pollard was exactly that sort of client.
[08:56.67]He was a small, untidy httle man, with a large head and round, old-fashioned spectacles.
[09:02.94]"I have a problem," he began nervously, \'I bought this house, you see.
[09:08.16]I got a mortgage from the building society, but then I lost my job, so I got behind with the payments."
[09:16.60]He gave me the details. It appeared that he owed eleven payments of fifty pounds, and had no job and no money.
[09:24.83]Not surprisingly the building society had written to say they intended to take possession of the house;
[09:31.34]sell it, and thus get back their money.
[09:34.03]"What would happen if they sold it for less than I paid?" he asked. "Would I get back any money?"
[09:40.90]\'Probably not," I replied.
[09:42.99]\' Would you mind telephoning the building society?"  he pleaded, "and see if they could possibly give me a tittle more time?"
[09:50.77]"If you\'re not earning any money, how will more time help?"
[09:54.92]I asked. He looked at me hopelessly.
[09:58.66]In the end the house was sold. The building society debt was paid off, and Mr. Pollard got sixty pounds.
[10:11.25]F. Monologue:
[10:15.80]Everybody agrees I\'m just ordinary.
[10:19.64]My face is ordinary, my voice is ordinary, my clothes are ordinary.
[10:24.21]Everything about me is ordinary. \'What\'s Frank like?\' they say. \'Frank? Oh--you know. Ordinary,\' they say.
[10:33.32]Now look at that man two rows in front.He\'s not ordinary. In fact I can\'t see anybody apart from me who is.
[10:45.89]Even this fellow next to me. Quite ordinary on the whole, I suppose.
[10:52.71]But there\'s something a bit ... something a bit odd about his mouth.
[10:59.24]Mustn\'t catch his eye. Might start a conversation.Don\'t want that. Interesting that he was just in front of me in the queue.
[11:12.14]They looked in his bag, they looked in his pockets--made him take his shoes off even.
[11:17.26]Mm--they\'ve nearly finished with the food--though she didn\'t take my glass when she collected my tray.
[11:30.04]Ah--she\'s pressed her button again. Probably wants another gin and tonic.
[11:41.56]Had four already\' Or is it five? Not bad, though. At least not in this light.
[11:55.82]Good--some of them are getting their blankets down now.
[12:04.54]I reckon that in about half an hour it\'ll all be quiet.
[12:12.09]And then ... Of course they looked in my briefcase too.Didn\'t look here, though, did they? Oh, no. Hah!
[12:26.51]Though they think otherwise, I know very well who those two in the back row are.
[12:32.23]Noticed them when I went to the toilet. But they won\'t shoot.
[12:39.76]Not as long as I have this in my hand, they won\'t. And it\'s so small.
[12:44.48]Marvellous what they can do\'these days.
[12:46.60]Just about now, if I were sitting in funny mouth\'s seat and not by the aisle--just about now,
[12:58.25]I could probably look down and see the mountains gleaming in the moonlight.
[13:03.42]I like that. Mm. Well, now I must go over my speech again.
[13:17.45]Mustn\'t forget what my demands are, must I?
[13:24.03]Section Three:
[13:26.20]B.Dictation.
[13:29.44]Well,I think that this problem of teenagers getting into trouble with the law is mainly caused by unemployment.
[13:42.71]You see,because of the high level of unemployment,
[13:50.65]so many teenagers nowadays leave school and find that they have no chance of getting a job,and this obviously makes them feel bored and frustrated.
[14:05.28]And as a result of this,they\'re much more likely to get drunk and so on. lrc字幕 lrc字幕是什么意思 lrc歌词字幕下载 lrc字幕文件如何使用 绿野仙踪lrc字幕 歌词字幕 lrc字幕编辑器 pr歌词字幕 手机怎么调歌词字幕
