听力原文： Tom: Thanks a lot, Jane, thank you for your timely advice during that company trip last week. Otherwise, I would end up buying that worthless piece of so-called souvenir and regretting my purchasing all day long.
Jane: My pleasure, Tom. Anyway, I hate wasting money on worthless things.
Tom: That's an extremely attractive point in your character. My wife used to waste a lot of money. Stick to that, and you will get married in no time.
Jane: Oh, I have had plenty of offers, But you know it's a terrible thing to be a poor man's wife when you have been accustomed to a clean, decent job. I have seen so many bright jolly girls turn into dirty old drudges through getting married.
Tom: Don't be afraid of dirt. Mine is a clean job, but I often wish I weren't so set on clean collars that they make their suns clerks that they would be stronger, and earn more money as navies, those road constructions workers, you know. Nowadays, they earn more than we office clerks do. I wish I were a navy instead of writing guide books.
Jane: Well, what's there to prevent you？
Tom: I am not trained to manual work. Half an hour of it would make me wish myself dead. And five minutes of my work will produce a strike among the navies. I am only a writing machine, just as a navy as a digging machine.
Jane: I don't think the world is fair and rightly arranged, do you？
Tom: We must take the world as we find. It's we that are not rightly arranged.

听力原文： We all find that learning English takes effort and dedication. There' re times when you seem to hit a plateau when learning. A plateau here refers to a flat spot during which you don't feel any advancement taking place. Educational research reveals this is normal. But don't give up. Keep on studying and practicing. And you'll soon feel as if you're progressing once again. Just tell yourself that it is a temporary condition. Meanwhile, study faithfully. Do your best. And the rewards will be worth the struggle.
Why do we learn English？ Most people say that English now becomes an international language, and it is a very useful tool, a means to achieve something else. But specifically, what is the use of a foreign language. We may use it to communicate freely with a native speaker. We may use it to get a job with a decent pay. We may use it to help negotiate a business contract with a foreign company. In any case, when you hurry through the last lesson of the language course, you'll have your completion certificate hanging on your wall. A certificate may mean nothing in comparison with your accomplishment. What is really significant is that you have learned to use that language to your advantage and benefit. As your certificate might get stained, lost or destroyed in a fire. But what's in your memory will go with you wherever you go. A language skill is worth money in today's international business world. So study well, and cash in on success.
