听力原文:W: Tony, I have been hearing so much in the news about different presidential can
didates. Can you tall me a little about how Americans elect their President?

M: Well, it's a long process. We start off by deciding who the official candidate for each political party will be. Usually, a person first announces that he or she wants to run for President. If you want to be your party's official candidate, you need to raise money and gather support from party members. Candidates usually campaign to let people know what they represent. They give speeches, meet with community leaders, and participate in debates. This process lasts for several months, and then the party members vote to decide who they want m back in the election.

W: Do you have to be rich to become President?

M: You don't really have to be rich to become President, but it helps. Usually rich people have more connections and can raise money more effectively. Most of our Presidents in the past have been relatively rich men, but not all of them.

W: So, how do ye6 make the final decision?

M: After several months of television ads, interviews, speeches, and kissing babies we have the presidential election. Citizens go to a voting canter and cast their ballot for the candidate of their choice.

W: You sounded a little cynical when you said "kissing babies". What did you mean by that?

M: Well, it's quite common for politicians to have themselves photographed kissing babies. It's their way of trying to appear in touch with the average American, but it looks really phony. These days, becoming President is all about acting. The candidates try to appeal to so many different people that they end up abandoning their own opinions. Sometimes, it feels like the parties are ail the same.

W: How many parties are there?

M: We have many political parties in the United States, but most of them are quite small. There are really only two with significant power, the Democrats and the Republicans,

(20)

A.Raising money.

B.Gathering support from others.

C.Giving speeches.

D.Choosing the official candidate for each political party.

听力原文:M: Hi, Jane. How is your vacation?

W: Terrific! I went to Washington D. C. to visit my cousin. I saw the Jefferson Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, the Smithsonian Institution, and the White House.

M: I've never been to Washington. What did you like best?

W: Oh, the White House. Do you know that it's been the official home of the presidents since 1800? And every president except George Washington has lived in it.

M: I didn't know it was that old. Is it really as nice as everyone says?

W: It's only a two-storied building of stone. But its dignity impressed me. It used to be called the president's house. But it was named the White House after the British burned it in the war of 1812. It had to be repainted, of course.

W: Not very much. Only 6 of the rooms are open to the public. It's a popular tour, and there is always a line of people waiting. They want to look at their property, I guess.

M: Their property?

W: Sure. The White House is owned by the people of the United States. We elect the leaders who live in R.

M: But can just anyone go inside?

W: Of course.Anyone can see our president's home.

听力原文:W: Tim, did you get your ticket for the concert Friday?

M: I tried to. I stopped by the ticket office on the way back from campus, but they wouldn't take my check.

W: Why not?

M: The cashier said I didn't have enough identification with me—a student ID card wasn't enough. He said I needed a driver's license, too.

W: What happened to yours? Did you lose it, or just forget to bring it with you?

M: I don't have one. You know me—I ride my bicycle everywhere I go, so why do I need a driver's license?

W: You could still get an official identification card from the state and use that to cash checks.

M: Where do I get one of those?

W: At the same place you get a driver's license, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

M: Is that office downtown?

W: No, it's out on Southland Parkway, next to the Midvale Shopping Mall.

M: What do you think I'll need to do to get one?

W: Just bring some official document that has your date of birth on it. You could use a passport, for example.

M: I'll ride out there tomorrow.

W: Good idea. And I'll tell you what, Tim, if you promise to cash a check as soon as you can, I'll let you borrow some money, and you can go get that ticket.

听力原文:M: Did you hear about the air crash that occurred in South America recently? It w
as quite a tragic accident!

W: No, I didn't see anything in the news about it. What happened?

M: A foreign airliner was attempting to land at night in a mountainous area in Argentina and flew into a hill!

W: That sounds really terrible! Did anyone survive?

M: No, everyone aboard, including the crew, was killed instantly.

W: What were the circumstances? Were they bad weather, a fire, or engine failure?

M: Apparently, there were some low clouds in the area, but mostly it was just miscommunication between the pilots and the air traffic controllers.

W: Weren't they both speaking in English, the official international aviation language?

M: Yes they were, but the transition from poor quality radios was slightly distorted and the accents of the Spanish speaking controllers was so strong that the pilots misunderstood a vital instruction.

W: How could a misunderstanding like that cause such a serious accident?

M: The pilots were told to descend to 22, 000 feet. The instruction actually meant22, 000 feet, but they thought they heard descend 2, 000 feet. That's a huge difference, and it should have been confirmed, but it was not. Unfortunately, the terrain of the mountains in Norweija ascend to 2, 000 feet.

W: So the pilots did descend to the wrong altitude then, because they were following the air controller's instructions.

M: Sadly enough, yes they did. It was a really bad mistake. Many people died as a result of the simply misunderstanding.

W: Wow, that's a powerful lesson on how important it can be to accurately communicate with each other.

What was the cause of the tragedy?

A.Bad weather.

B.Human error.

C.Breakdown of the engines.

D.Communications system failure.
