听力原文:W: Oh, Larry, I have been meaning to talk to you.
M: Hi, Jenis. What's up?
W: I have this great job lined up to manage the clothing store at the mall.
M: So what's the problem?
W: Well, one of the professors in my department just told me about a summer internship program that's available. She thinks I might be able to intern in the office of the Way fare Hotel here in town.
M: That sounds like a great opportunity too. Why not take advantage of it?
W: I'd love to, especially since I'm studying hotel management. It would be a great way to get some practical experience in my field.
M: And you never know, it might lead to something with them after graduation. They are on of the biggest hotel chains in the area.
W: You're right. But the drawback is I wouldn't be making nearly as much money as I would be working in the clothing store, not to mention the discount I could get on clothes there.
M: How much is the internship paid?
W: They pay their internship a small stipend and give them free room and board for the sum- mer.
M: Well, if I were you, I would take the internship anyway. You could always get a job during the school year to make a few extra bucks.

听力原文:W: John, have you chosen a physical education class yet for this semester?
M: No. Why?
W: You've got to take rock-climbing. We just had the first class and it looks like it gonna to be great.
M: You think I should take rock-climbing? You've got to be kidding. Besides, how can they teach rock climbing when it's completely flat around here?
W: That's not important. You can't just start climbing without any training. You had to get in shape, learn how to use the ropes, the belts, the buckles. There's a lot of preparation first.
M: You don't think it's just a little bit dangerous?
W: Not if you know how to use the safety equipment, which is, by the way, pretty hi-tech. The ropes are made of elastic that stretch a little, the shoes have special grapes on the bottom and the helmets are made of some kind of special plastic. You have to learn how to use all these before you do any real climbing.
M: Well, what's the appeal? we'll spend the whole semester studying something we don't actually get to do.
W: We will take a climbing trip during spring break. But that's not the point. Climbing is not the only goal. In preparing to climb you learn patience, mental discipline and you gain fantastic physical strength, especially in your hands. For the first few weeks we're going to concentrate 'entirely on hand and upper body exercises.
M: All that in one sport? Maybe you are right. Since it's not too late to join the class, may- be I will.
