听力原文：W: What sports do you often go in for, Mr. Clinton？
M: Oh, football—both kinds, you know, soccer and rugby. I play quite a bit of cricket, too. Do you like sports, too, Miss Li？
W: Yes, very much. I play basketball, but my favourite sport is table-tennis. What's your favourite sport？
M: Mine is football. It's the best way to build up your health, I think.
W: That's true. I'm interested in it, too.
M: Is football very popular in China now？
W: Not really. In fact, only in recent years have people taken an interest in football. It's getting more and more popular, though. What about watching the football match tomorrow evening？ I've got two tickets.
M: Why, yes, that'll be nice. Thank you.
W: By the way, people say in Britain there are many football fans behaving as troublemakers. Is that true？

M: Sure. But I don't have any information about the recent films. What about you？
W: Well, my workmate tells me that "Harry Porter and His Magic Stone" will be on:
M: What's that？
W: I don't know. It is said that kids like it a lot.
M: Perhaps you can take our son here. It's boring for me to sit there for two hours.
W: Oh, you're that kind of man. Um, a violent film called "The Most wanted" will also be on at the same time. Maybe you can come with us.
M: That's a clever idea. I like American films very much. We can go to the same cinema and come home together, but watch different films.

W: But games like football and cricket became popular only in the last century.
M: Yes, that's true. Mountaineering and skiing are comparatively recent sports too, aren't they？
W: And so are motor-racing and cycling. What about country sports？ Do you like them？
M: Do you mean sports like hunting, shooting and fishing？
W: Yes.
M: I don't approve of killing animals for sport. And 1 don't like boxing and bull-fighting, either. They are not real sports.

M: No doubt, but I still don't like them.
W: What about aquatic sports.9 Do you like sailing？

听力原文：W: Hey! You got a new television.
M: Yeah! It was delivered yesterday. What do you think of it？
W: It's huge. It practically takes up the entire side of the room.
M: I know. I know. You don't think it's, well, excessive, do you？
W: I didn't say that. I mean, 'if you enjoy it, why not？ What happened to your old TV, anyhow？
M: It just stopped working last Friday. It was pretty old and didn't work well. I thought I can afford it. Why not get a new one？
W: It must've been expensive.
M: Well, not as much as you might think. I got it on sale for 50% off.
W: Really？ Where？
M: At the stereo city on Route 20. You know at first I just wanted to replace what I had. A TV of about the same size and quality. But the salesman was pushing these because of the 50% off.
W: Yeah. But 50% off what？
M: $ 2,400.
W: You spent $ 1,200 on a TV？
M: It's got a lot of special features. Look at this remote control.
W: I'm sure. But that's still a lot of money for a television. I didn't think you watched TV that much.
M: Well, I don't. Do you think I ought to return it？ If I do it within a week of purchase, I can get my money back.
W: Honestly, yes. And you know that. I think you ought to read up on TV's first and choose the make and model you want before you go to the store. That way you will get what you want.
M: I think you are right.
(26)
A．A popular television program.
B．A breakthrough in technology.

听力原文：W: I heard that your family arrived yesterday, didn't they？
M: Yes, they did.
W: That's good! Dr. Morrison, your family is now in China with you. You won't miss them, then. To talk about the family, I want to ask you some questions about American families. Er. . . Do you most Americans live in "small families" or "big families"？
M: In the United States, most people normally choose to live in "small families", but we call them "nuclear families".
W: What is the average size of a nuclear family？
M: Well, it depends on the number of children, because the nuclear family consists of a husband, a wife and children. However, if there are no children, then the husband and wife are the nuclear family. Of course, there may be only one parent due to a death, separation or divorce. In this ease, the nuclear family is the single parent and children.
W: Are there any big families in the United States？
M: Oh, you mean the extended family. No, not many. Most Americans, both the elderly and the young couples prefer to live in their own homes.
W: Since most Americans live in nuclear families rather than in extended families, the majority of the elderly do not see their children and their relatives, do they？
M: Wall, people often make such assumptions, but that is not the case according to recent sociological research.
W: Oh, what's that？
M: The recent research shows that more elderly people in the United States live within ten minutes of their children by car than in Denmark, and over 78 percent of the elderly have seen their children within a week.
W: Now I've got a general idea about American family structure. Thank you.
M: You're welcome.

Man: Not at the moment, Sandy. But I was earlier this morning.
Woman: Can we start off by looking at the finances of this great success story？ How much exactly is the sportswear industry worth？
Man: At the moment I would say it's worth something like ￡3,500 million a year.
Woman: To whom？ Where are people going for their sportswear？
Man: Well, traditionally, up to the end of the 80s, shall we say, sportswear was produced almost exclusively by sportswear specialists and passed on to the department stores to be sold. In the last 10 years there's been an interesting development of the mail-order business but most sportswear by far is still produced by sportswear companies like our own and then retailed through our own specialist outlets.
Woman: Approximately what proportion of expenditure on all clothing and footwear is spent on sportswear？ Do you know？
Man: I'm not absolutely sure of the very latest figures, but it's something in the region of 9%. That includes expenditure on children's sportswear. What I think is more interesting or surprising is that a recent survey showed that last year 41% of sportswear was purchased by adults, not for use as sports clothes, not, I mean, to play a sport, but just as casual wear for their entertainment activities.
Woman: You say adults. But my impression is that it is the young who buy this sort of clothing. I mean, my mother hasn't bought any sports shoes yet and they've been in fashion for years. I'm not sure she ever will buy any now.
Man: Of course it basically is a youth market. However, one surprising fact is that the 16-25 age-group is in fact getting smaller and will continue to do so for a few more years. The size of this group has fallen from 9.5 million in the mid 1980s to something like 7.5 million now. And yet the sportswear market has expanded considerably during the same period. It can't be simply a youth market.
Woman: What do you see as the reason for the development in sportswear？
Man: It's hard, if not impossible, to give you any single reason. There are even plenty of reasons why it shouldn't have happened, such as the rising costs of production and marketing, leading to much higher prices. What's clear is that changing social conditions have greatly helped. The market couldn't have grown to its present size without the relaxation in codes of dress that has taken place since the late 70s. We have relaxed some of our rules. This has allowed sports participants to wear their tracksuits and sports shoes for many other activities they are not designed for. At a very practical level, clothing and footwear which are suitable for sports are so easily used for other non-sporting activities as well. For DIY, or gardening, or just playing with the children.
Woman: And how do you see the future for sportswear？
Man: I expect increased competition between the manufacturers to produce more attractive and fashionable materials. I don't expect this to affect the number of manufacturers active in the marketplace but it could well bring the prices down.
Woman: Will we be wearing the same sportswear products then？ Five years from now.
Man: Almost definitely. This is not just a passing fashion. It will last. People young and old are putting an ever-increasing emphasis on the importance of feeling, and looking, fit and healthy. Most experts believe that sportswear will actually increase its market share over the next few years.
