Question 1
- M： Do you remember the wonderful film on space exploration we watched together last month？
- W： Sure。 It’s actually the most impressive one I’ve seen on that topic。
Q：What do we learn about the speakers？
A.They admire the courage of space explorers.
B.They enjoyed the movie on space exploration.
C.They were going to watch a wonderful movie.
D.They like doing scientific exploration very much.
M: Sorry, but I can't believe that you're actually complaining about free publicity. I mean I remember, Shelley, before you were famous, you were begging us to write features about you...anything...
W: If you would just let me finish of course the press have been important. I'm an actress and I understand the power of the press. But the thing is, I rarely seem to read anything true about myself these days... The point I'm trying to make here is that famous people have families with feelings.
M: Oh, sorry. You're really hurt by that particular article last week.
W: To increase circulation and make more money, certain newspapers continue to print those stories when it's obvious that they're not true.
M: But I think we have to consider the relationship between fame, the public and the press. The public are fascinated by fame and scandal, and they love to read about their favorite stars.
W: I'm sick of gutter-press making up stories. It's irresponsible and it messes up people's life.
M: The problem is, it's not always clear what's true and what isn't. I mean, if a newspaper prints something scandalous or embarrassing about a famous person, they're bound to deny it, but that doesn't mean it's not true.
W: Are you trying to say...
M: No smoke without fire, if you ask me.

Dear Sirs,
I am writing to your office to attempt to determine why I have encouraged so many obstacles to receiving my proper monthly social allotment.【1】The trouble occurred ten months ago and has actually gotten worse, making extremely difficult for me to meet normal financial obligations.【2】The first problem which I had to deal was simply getting a monthly check from you, without having to wait for four or five extra weeks for it. Then two of the checks that have arrived【3】made out for the wrong amount, giving me fifty dollars fewer than I should have received.【4】Another check was mailed to me at an address, which I moved more than two years ago.【5】My letter of inquiry, which I sent to the Los Angeles Office of the Social Security administration, never brought the answer, and when I finally telephoned them I was able to talk with an arrogant clerk【6】from the tone of his voice I could tell that he didn't want to be bothered with me. The final blow is a letter received from your office yesterady in which you state that【7】my allotment is being discontinued, your records indicated that I am legally dead.
Apart from this letter of protest I have at least one other recourse:【8】filing suit against the Social Security Administration, that I would prefer not to have to do.【9】Howevers I am asking you to take whatever steps are necessary to ensure that【10】from now on I receive my social security benefits with further obstacles. This letter also testifies that I'm indeed not dead, legally or otherwise.
Sincerely yours,
Thelma Spencer

W: Well, can we summarize the problem from our point of view？ First of all, the campaign was late. It missed two important trade fairs. The ads also did not appear into key magazines. As a result, the campaign failed. Do you accept that summary of what happened？
M: Well, the delay wasn't entirely our fault. You did in fact make late changes to the specifications of the advertisements.
W: Hmm, actually, you were late with the initial proposals, so you had very little time. And in fact, we only asked for small changes.
M: Well, whatever. Can we repeat our offer to run the campaign for four extra weeks？
W: That's not really the point. The campaign missed two key trade fairs. Because of this, we're asking you either to repeat the campaign next year for free, or we only pay 50% of the fee for this year.
M; Could we suggest a 20% reduction to the fee together with the four-week sustention to the campaign？
W: We are not happy. We lost business.
M: I think we both made mistakes. The responsibility is on both sides.
W: Ok, let's suggest a new solution. How about a 40% cut in fee, or a free repeat campaign？
M: Well, let's take a break. We're not getting very far. Perhaps we should think about this.
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
22. What do we learn about the man's company？
23. Why was the campaign delayed according to the man？
24. What did the woman propose as a solution to the problem？
25. What does the man suggest they do at the end of the conversation？
(25)
A．It publishes magazines.
B．It is engaged in product design.
C．It sponsors trade fairs.
D．It runs sales promotion campaigns.
