听力原文:M: Hi, Cheryl.
W: Hello, Phil. How are you ?
M: I'm fine. Where are you heading?
W: Oh, I'm on my way home from work.
M: I didn't know you had a job.
W: Yeah. I work part-time at a supermarket.
M: What do you do there?
W: I work in the produce section, trimming and wrapping fresh fruits and vegetables. I also stock shelves. Sometimes when it really gets busy, I work at the checkout counter. Have you got a job, Phil?
M: Yeah. I do yard work for people, you know, cutting grass, raking leaves, pulling weeds, things like that.
W: I'd like doing that. It must be nice to work outdoors.
M: Sometimes it is, except when it rains or snows or gets too hot or too cold or...
W: Ha, Ha, I guess every job has its drawbacks. There are times when I get pretty tired of carrying things around at my job, but a job is a job. Gotta earn money for school.
M: Me too. Tuition sure is high, isn't it? Well, I'd better get going. I've got to plant some trees for my neighbours this afternoon.
W: Well, don't work too hard. Holding down a job, going to class, studying, sometimes it can become too much for one person. Take it easy.

TV Shows and Long Bus Trips
Long bus rides are like televisions shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end — with commercials (商业的) thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste." "Drink Good'n Wet Root Beer." "Fill up with Pacific Gas." Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"
The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you've traveled that way before . Usually some things have changed — new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style. of driving and it's fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense (悬念) story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left—hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you've got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there's a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you've sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the arm rests —even with your hands crossed Behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.
According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?

A. Buses on the road.
B. Films on television.
C. Advertisements on the board.
D. Gas stations.
