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.

Candler was skillful at advertising and showed much imagination in understanding the potential.
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.

In America, the debate is no longer about whether surgery is normal; rather, it centers on what age people should be before going under the knife. New York surgeon Dr. Gerard Imber recommends "maintenance" work for people in their thirties. "The idea if waiting until one need a heroic transformation is silly," he says. "By then, you've wasted 20 great years of your life and allowed things to get out of hand." Dr. Imber draws the line at operating on people who are under 18, however, "It seems that someone we don't consider old enough to order a drink shouldn't be considering plastic surgery."
In the UK cosmetic surgery has long been seen as the exclusive domain of the very rich and famous. But the proportionate cost of treatment has fallen substantially, bringing all but the most advanced laser technology within the reach of most people. Dr. Davie, who claims to "cater for the average person", agrees. He says: "I treat a few of the rich and famous and an awful lot of secretaries. Of course, ￡3,000 for an operation is a lot of money. But it is also an investment for life which costs about half the price of a good family holiday."
Dr. Davies suspects that the increasing sophistication of the fat injecting and removal techniques that allow patients to be treated with a local anaesthetic in an afternoon has also helped promote the popularity of cosmetic surgery. Yet, as one woman who recently paid ￡2,500 for liposuction to remove cellulite from her thighs admitted, the slope to becoming a cosmetic surgery veteran is a deceptively gentle one. "I had my legs done because they'd been bugging me for years. But going into the clinic was so low key and effective that it whetted my appetite. Now I don't think there's any operation that I would rule out having if I could afford it."
According to the text, the reason for cosmetic surgery is ______.
A．200,000.B．350,000.C．2,500,000.D．15,000,000.
