M: Well, you didn't expect it to be warm, did you.'？
W: of course not, but I just heard the National Weather Service’s prediction for the next 90 days. They said it's supposed to be much colder weather than usual.
M: Yeah, maybe. Personally, I think those long-range forecasts are useless (23) .
W: Not as useless as you think.
M: Oh, come on, when you're talking about what's going to happen three months later, you might as well just pick a forecast out of our hat.
W: Well, you are half-right. They aren't very good for the amount of rain. But they are a lot better for temperatures especially for this time of the year (24) .
M: Really, so I should take them seriously about the cold but not count too much on a lot of extra snow？
W: Un huh.
M: But what did you say about this time of the year？ Do some seasons really give them more problems in making forecasts？
W: Autumn is the worst, apparently weather patterns change so much then, just think how variable our weather has been the last three months (25) .
M: Come to think of it. That's true. It probably would have been hard to predict all those changes back in the summer. You know, you're beginning to convince me there is more to forecast than I thought. How come you know so much about it？
W: I get my information from an expert. My sister's a meteorologist.

听力原文： London taxi drivers know the capital like the back of their hands. No matter how small and indistinct the street is, the driver will be able to get you there without any trouble. The reason London taxi drivers are so efficient is that they have all gone through a very tough training period to get a special taxi driving license. During this period, which can take from two to four years, the would-be taxi driver has to learn the most direct route to every single road and to every important building in London.
To achieve this, most learners go around the city on small motorbikes, practicing how to move to and from different points of the city. Learner taxi drivers are tested several times during their training period by government officers. Their exams are a terrible experience. The officers ask you, “How do you get from Buckingham Palace to the Tower of London？” And you have to take them there in a direct line. When you get to the tower, they won’t say “Well done”; they will quickly move on to the next question. After five or six questions they will just say “see you in two months’ time” and then you know the exam is over. Learner drivers are not allowed to work and earn money as drivers. Therefore, many of them keep their previous jobs until they have obtained their license. The training can cost quite a lot because learners have to pay for their own expenses on the tests and a medical exam.
