SECTION A CONVERSATIONS
Directions: In this section you will hear several conversations. Listen to the conversations carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文:W: Dad !
M: Uh, what?
W: The movie is over. You slept through the best part.
M: Ah, I must have dozed off during the last few minutes.
W: Right. You were gone for so long you should have brought your pillow and blanket. So, what did you think about it?
M: Well, overall, I'm a little disappointed with the movie. I mean, the story was a little bizarre, you have to admit. I mean, really. How believable is a plot about a captain who navigates his spaceship to the far reaches of the galaxy and encounters a race of frog people. I mean, come on.
W: Ah, I thought it was fantastic. I mean, you have to admit that the special effects were awesome, and the acting wasn't had either.
M: Ah, come on. What about the ship's communications officer? I mean, what did you think about him? Well... Wasn't he a little weird to you? He was always talking to himself, and he had that funny hairdo?
W: Well, he was a little unusual, but the ship's doctor was amazing. It was so cool when he brought the captain back to life during one of the battles.
M: That was pretty realistic, but then the rest of the movie just went from bad to worse. And the photography was so fake!
W: How do you know? You were snoring so loud the neighbors probably had to close their windows. It was that bad. M: Ah, well, let's go to bed.
What is one word to describe the father's opinion about the movie's storyline?

A. interesting
B. fantastic
C. absurd
D. exciting

First, decide if you want an upright or chest model. Uprights are more convenient. Their storage space is more accessible and they take up less floor area. However, chest models are more energy-efficient because less cold air escapes when they are open.
If you're buying an upright, you'll have to choose between frostless or manual defrost. Chest freezers are always manual. Frostless freezers automatically defrost at preset intervals and remove the water. Manual models must be defrosted by hand every few months or whenever frost accumulates to about a quarter of an inch.
To help your freezer reach a ripe old age, try to find a spot that's cool, dry, and away from drafts. Drafts and heat will raise the freezer's cabinet temperature and make it work harder to keep cool. That means wasted energy and a shortened compressor life.
Dry air is important because high humidity can cause the freezer to rust outside and frost up inside. With proper care, a freezer can serve you for 15 years or more.
Frostless models require less care than manual defrost freezers. The interior of a frostless unit should be washed periodically with warm water and baking soda or a mild soap, rinsed, and dried.
To get the most from your freezer, check regularly to make sure it's providing a true zero-degree temperature.
Keep the freezer at least three-quarters full. The emptier it gets, the more energy is wasted. If more than three pounds of food per cubic foot of storage space is added every 24 hours, the resulting high or low temperatures can damage the food.
According to the passage, choosing the best place for your freezer means______。

A. putting it in an unheated garage if possible
B. trying to keep it away from heat, drafts, and humidity
C. locating it near a sink if it is a manual-defrost model
D. locating it as close as possible to the kitchen door

听力原文:W: Harry, you are an exercise physiologist by training, right?
M: Right.
W: So you can really tell us what we need to do here. Is this all about technology? Is there so much technology, in our office that we don't even bother to walk across the room to talk to our colleagues? Is that why we are gaining weight at our, at our cubicles?
M: Well, there are probably multiple variables that are causing this whole phenomenon. Eh, inactivity, obviously is the reason. Why are we inactive? Over the last ten to twenty years, the faster and the more technology moves, the less we do.
W: Right.
M: While you used to get up, write a message and go see your colleague all the way across the office; now you spend 30 seconds, you write an e-mail zip, it's gone. You are onto the next thing.
W: Yeah.
M: Eh, so there are many reasons why we are less active even in the workplace. Problem is we are in such, we live in such an all-or-none society, that if people don't get 30 to 60 minutes of the formal exercise everyday, they give up.
W: Right.
M: So what's the use? Why should I?
W: OK. So what are things people can do before or after work? You know if they are trying to work as many hours as possible and also spend time with family and everything else, things they can do to help them at least get some exercise.
M: You know, if you commute uh, the New York City, take the bus or the subway, get off the stop earlier before you are supposed to, wherever you are supposed to get off.
W: Right.
M: Get off the stop earlier. That gives you a few extra blocks that you can walk.
W: Sure.
M: Eh, instead, if you are up on the 15th floor, I ant not gonna recommend you take the stairs for 15 flights. But you can take the elevator to the 12 floor and walk up 3 flights.
W: You know what, I've seen people who actually have been doing that way, who use the stairs all the time, makes a huge, huge difference.
M: Absolutely. It's just a matter of getting your 2 minutes here and there. It's a, overall, it all adds up.
W: And what should you do at lunchtime? What about lunchtime?
M: Eh, be sensible. If you are moving less, you really require less energy. And you require less calories if you will.
W: Right.
M: So eat a little lighter, eat a little bit less, drink, eh, non-caloric fluids like water or even diet soda ff you are a soda drinker. And help that..., let that help you fill up.
