听力原文：W: Hi, Larry, are you waiting to see Professor Jamison, too？
M: Yah, since I got one of the five highest grades in her managerial economics class, she asked me if I'd be interested in working as her assistant next semester. I'm here now for my interview.
W: Oh, yes. I know all about that job. I did it two years ago(22).
M: Really？ Did you like it？
W: I think it was the best I've had at school. It paid eight dollars an hour, which was three dollars an hour more than I got working at the school post office the year before(23).
M: That is a good salary. What did you do？
W: I was in charge of grading all the problem sets that were assigned as homework(25). I never had trouble doing it, and of course, Prof. Jamison was always available to help me if I had any questions.
M: I think I'd enjoy doing that sort of work. It would be very good experience for anyone thinking about becoming a teacher.
W: Absolutely. You also learn how to use the computer data base, because the records are kept on it. And building up your computer skills is a good preparation for lots of jobs.
M: The job sounds great, but I'm a little worried about how much time it might take(24)？
W: It's pretty reasonable. It never took me more than five hours a week to do all the grading and then another thirty to forty minutes to record the grades on the computer.
M: That sounds manageable. I guess you can do the work when it fits into your own schedule, too, can't you？
W: Oh, yeah, you can do the grading in your room or in the library. You just need to get each set back for the next class, but that means you always have at least two days and sometimes four.
M: It sounds great.
W: Good luck with your interview.

听力原文： The first ancient Olympics were held in ancient Greece at least as long ago as 776 B. C. That's about 2 700 years ago! The games were held in Olympia, to honor Zeus, the ruler of heavens. Like the Summer Olympics of today, the ancient Olympics were also held every four years. (26)One of the main features of the ancient Olympics was that all wars were stopped for the games, so that the athletes and the audience could compete and travel in peace. Thousands of people from all over the Greek world came to watch. The main stadium might hold about 45 000 people. There are thousands of visitors setting up their tents all around the stadium. (27)During the first Olympics. there was only one competition—a 200-meter race. (28)But over time the games grew to include wrestling, boxing, and other sports. Women were not allowed to compete, but they had their own, separate games. The ancient athletes became famous, just like today. (29)They often lived the rest of their lives being treated to free dinners. City states even tried to steal away each other's athletes by offering them various awards.
Though the ancient Olympics existed until A. D. 393, the modern Olympics are still going strong. The Olympics gather athletes from all over the world. However, when you watch the Olympics, you should pay attention not just to the winners, but also to the people who don't win the gold medal. Think about what took them to get there, the dedication to the games.

A．The Arctic land.B．Iceberg.C．Active volcano.D．Ice age.
W: It was pretty interesting. She talked about volcanoes, active volcanoes, under the---uh-- West Antarctic ice sheet(20).
M: There are active volcanoes under the ice？
W: Apparently so. She said they help protect the ice sheet and prevent melting. Flooding would be pretty bad if that ice melted, not only there, but all over the world.
M: You lost me there. Volcanoes are hot. How can something hot prevent ice from melting (21).
W: Wait a minute, let me check my notes. Yeah, here it is. Volcanic heat melts just enough ice to create a slippery surface on the bottom of the glacier. This water allows ice to flow out into the ocean. So the solid interior ice is protected from the ocean's warmth. Does that make sense？
M: Sort of. You mean that because the ice is flowing out to the ocean, the warmer ocean water can't flow in.
W: Exactly. And the ice that melts is constantly being replaced by snow. Prof. Smith said that if the ice sheet ever broke up and melted, the sea level would go up seven meters, Then we would have those floods.
M: Is that really possible？ Or is it one of those exaggerations you hear all the time？
W: As far as I can understand, it is possible, because of global warming. I mean if the ocean got a lot warmer that interior ice would be very likely to melt.
M: Thanks for telling me about the lecture. Sounds like I've missed a pretty important class.
