W: And ltd like to buy Nike.

M: Come on, Mary, it's not for you.

W: But everyone in the club wears Nike. They say it's the best.

M: Maybe it is. But how much is a pair of Nike shoes？

W: Don't worry about that. I have a part-time job now, and I have saved enough money.

听力原文：M: So, what do you want to do tomorrow？

W: Well, let's look at this city guide here. Uh, here's something interesting. Oh! Why don't we first visit the art museum in the morning.

M: Okay. I like that idea. And where do you want to eat lunch？

W: How about going to an Indian restaurant？ Humm. The guide recommends one downtown a few blocks from the museum.

M: Now that sounds great. After that, what do you think about visiting the zoo？ Umm, well, it says here that there are some very unique animals not found anywhere else.

W: Well, to tell the truth, I'm not really interested in going there. Why don't we go shopping instead？ There are supposed to be some really nice places to pick up souvenirs.

M: Nail, I don't think that's a good idea. We only have few traveler's checks left, and I only have fifty dollars left in cash.

W: No problem. We can use your credit card to pay for MY new clothes.

M: Oh, no. I remember the last time you used my credit card for your purchases.

W: oh well. Let's take the Subway down to the seashore and walk along the beach,

听力原文：W: What do you do for a living, Frank？

M: I am an aerospace engineer. I have been working for NASA for over fifteen years.

W: Wow, that sounds fascinating. What projects have you been involved in？

M: Well, until recently, I was heavily involved in the Cassini mission. I don't know if you're familiar with it or not. It's one of NASA's most expensive and ambitious projects. We are sending a probe to explore Saturn and its moons.

W: That sounds really interesting. Are you in any way involved in the construction of the international space station？

M: Actually, that's what I'm working on now. I'm currently a technical liaison between NASA and several European space agencies. It's an interesting job, but it can be a bit too much at times. The international space station is probably the largest international venture ever attempted, and I am constantly dealing with technical difficulties, budget problems, and delays. It's not easy coordinating the efforts of all those countries. I have been to Europe three times in the last month, and I have to go to Kazakhstan next week.

W: And I understand there's some controversy surrounding the space station. Don't some people worry that NASA is spending too much money on the project？

M: Many experts have complained that the project has grown out of control and become far too expensive. But I look at it as more than a space station; I believe it's helping to foster international scientific cooperation. It's nice to see the scientists of the world working together to create a stepping-stone to the future.

W: Hello, Tom. How are you？

M: I'm fine, where are you going？

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 fruit and vegetables. I also stock shelves. Some times when it gets really busy, I work at the check-out counter. Have you got a job, Tom？

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. . . Ha-ha. Tuition is sure high, isn't it？ Well, I'd better go. 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.

听力原文：W: Hi, Frank. What are you up to？ Is that really a French grammar book？

M: Well, I'm trying to teach myself some French. When I go to Montreal next semester, I don't want to sound like just another tourist. Most of the people there are bilingual.

W: Leave Boston to go to Montreal？ I didn't know this university had a program in Canada.

M: It doesn't. I'm planning to take a short leave of absence from school, so I can go there on my own.

W: What's the reason for this sudden interest in Canada？ M: Well, actually I've been thinking about going for some time now. I know someone there who's been wanting me to visit.

W: A relative？

M: An old friend of my uncle's runs a chemical engineering department there. So, I'm hoping he can help me enroll in some interesting courses.

W: If you want those credits transferred back here later on, you'd better arrange for it before you leave. Don't forget what happened to Susan after she came back from Rome.

M: Yeah, but her situation was different. I already have all the credits I need to graduate.

W: So you'll be taking courses just for the sake of learning.

M: That will be a nice change of pace, won't it？

听力原文：W: Hi, Sam, I hate to bother you but I wonder if I could have a word with you？

M: Sounds so serious. What's up？

W: Well, the landlord just informed me that he's going to increase our rent by two hundred. I'm wondering how you feel about it.

M: How do I feel about it？ No way! In our tenancy agreement, it says he will have to give us a notice three months in advance if he wants to increase the rent.

W: Yeah, that's right! It's gotta be three months later. Well, I think he realizes his rental fee is below the market rate and he must be feeling a bit ripped off when he could be charging a couple hundred extra. What do you think Sam？ Should we agree to the raise or find somewhere else？

M: Good question. I'm not sure either. The location we're at now is quite convenient. Close to the grocery and near the subway. It'll be hard to find another location like this one.

W: I wonder whether he'll allow room for negotiation. Perhaps a hundred dollars instead of two. Maybe he might be more willing to give a bit if we speak to him right way.

M: Well, he seems to be a nice guy to talk to. But what if he refuses？ Would you go for two then？

W: Well, I guess I would, since it'll be hard to find such a convenient location. Besides, it's close to my school and I can sleep a little later in the mornings.

M: Ha! I figured that's what you'd be concerned about. Well, I have to give it some serious thought. I'm not sure I can afford to cough up an extra hundred a month just to make sure I can sleep in an extra 15 minutes.

W: Didn't you get your loan recently？ That'll cover what you need. Besides, if you could just stop spending so much on cafeteria snacks you'd have lots of money to spare.

M: Yeah, but I'm thinking of getting a new laptop.

W: Well, I tell you, there aren't a lot of apartments that are cheaper, even with this new increase.

M: I know, so when does he want us to come back on this？

W: He told me to let him know this weekend.

M: Sure, by then I should be able to make up my mind.
