听力原文:W: Wake up, Erik, time to rise and shine.
M: Ha , oh, hi , Jane, I must have fallen asleep while I was reading.
W: You and everyone else. It looks more like a camp ground than a library.
M: Well, the dorm's too noisy to study in, and I guess this place is too quiet.
W: Have you had any luck finding a topic for your paper?
M: No, Prof. Grant told us to write about anything in cultural anthropology. For once I wish she had not given us so much of a choice.
W: Well, why not write about the ancient civilizations of Mexico. You seem to be interested in that part of the world.
M: I am, but there is too much material to cover. I'll be writing forever, and Grant only wants five to seven pages.
W: So then limit it to one region of Mexico, . say the Uka town. You've been there and you said it's got lots of interesting relics.
M : That's not a bad idea. I brought many books and things back with me last summer that would be great resource material, now if I can only remember where I put them.

A. To discuss his trip to Mexico.
B. To bring him a message from Professor Grant.

听力原文: W: Did you hear the thunder last night?
M: Did I? It was really loud.
W: I didn't see any lightning though. I thought that thunder and lightning always occur together.
M: They do. It's not possible to have one without the other since thunder is a direct result of lightning.
W: Really?
M: Yes. Thunder is produced by the rapid expansion and contraction of highly heated air along the path of an electrical discharge.
W: In other words, lightning quickly heats the air and causes thunder. But if the lightning is there, why can't we see it?
M: Because it sometimes occurs very high in the clouds.
W: I wonder whether it's possible to see the lightning and not to hear the thunder.
M: Yes. It's possible if the lightning flashes are far enough away. Sound doesn't travel as far as light.
What is the main topic of the conversation?

A. How lightning is produced.
B. The loudness of thunder.
C. The relationship between lightning and thunder.
D. How to determine the location of a lightning flash.
