SECTION A CONVERSATIONS

听力原文：J: Hi, Tom!
T: Judy. Haven't seen you in weeks. Where have you been？
J: In Florida.
T: What, going on holiday! While the rest of us are studying on the campus in February cold？
J: Not exactly. I spent most of my time under water.
T: I don't understand.
J: I was on a special field trip. I went with my marine biology class.
T: So you went diving. What were you looking for, sunken treasure？
J: You might say so. The sea's full of treasures. All kinds of strange fascinating organisms. Our class concentrated on studying plankton.
T: I thought planktons were too small to be seen.
J: That's common misconception. The term plankton covers a wild variety of freely flowing plants and animals, from one-cell organisms to larger ones, such as the common jellyfish.
T: Jellyfish may be large enough to be seen. But can you see the very tiny planktons？
J: By concentrating, I was able to see the outlines of lots of different plankton plants and animals.
T: That sounds like an interesting trip. But I think if I've been in Florida in February, I'd much rather spend my time just swimming and lying in the sun.
What was Tom doing in February？

The hotel chain asked guests to provide their stories on Holiday Inn's Website. [13]Guests whose stories are one of the best 25 chosen will receive a limited edition souvenir Holiday Inn towel. [12]Hundreds of stories had already rolled into the Website, One man said he took a towel from a Holiday Inn hotel in Monterey, Mexico, as a memento of his honeymoon night.
