English Weekly CET-6 Listening Practice Test Ⅲ 　　Part III Listening Comprehension 　　Section A 　　Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. 　　11. 　　M: How about going to see the movie at the North Sea Theater tonight? 　　W: I’d love to, but I have got to go over my lessons for tomorrow’s English quiz. 　　Q: What can be inferred about the woman?

　　12. 　　M: I have been watering and trimming my plants twice each week, but they are still not growing well in my dorm room. 　　W: You should not keep them in the corner. Putting them directly in front of the window would be a good idea. 　　Q: What does the woman imply?

　　13. 　　M: Oh, I am terribly sorry. I will pay the bill for your new blouse’s cleaning. 　　W: Don’t worry about it. It could happen to anyone…you didn’t do it deliberately. And I am sure that orange juice won’t stain the fiber. 　　Q: What can be inferred about the woman?

　　14. 　　M: You haven’t seen a black notebook, have you? I really hope I didn’t leave it in the classroom. 　　W: Did you check that pile of books and papers you put on the desk last night? 　　Q: What does the woman imply?

　　15. 　　W: I have been in bed for days because of a bad cold. Fortunately, some interesting and uptodate magazines have accompanied me. 　　M: Well, I will rush into the bookstore and buy you more. 　　Q: What will the man probably do?

　　16. 　　W: I need a place to live next term. The ride back and forth to class everyday makes me very tired. 　　M: Did you check out the North Dorm? The rooms are large and with good equipment. What’s more, the rent is very reasonable. 　　Q: What does the man mean？

　　17. 　　W: I hope I will be able to find Tina’s little sister at the bus station. All I know is that she is seven years old and has long hair. 　　M：I could go with you. I met her a couple of years ago. 　　Q: What does the man imply about Tina’s little sister?

　　18. 　　W: We got a thank-you note from Julie this morning. She said she has already received the T-shirt we sent. 　　M: That’s great. But I am not very sure if she likes the color red. 　　Q: What does the man care about? 　　Now you will hear the two long conversations.

　　Conversation One: 　　M: I really have no idea what to do during this summer holiday. I can’t bear to just sit around, and there seem to be no jobs available. 　　W: Why don’t you try house-sitting? Last summer my friend Tom house-sat for the Alexanders when they went away on vacation. Mr. Alexander hired Tom to stay in their house because he didn’t want it left empty. 　　M: You mean the Alexanders paid Tom just to live in their house? 　　W: It certainly wasn’t that easy. He had to mow the lawn and water the houseplants and also feed the pets. And when Boris house-sat for Mr. Alexander, he had to help him with his farm. 　　M: I heard about baby-sitting, and house-sitting sounds just like it---except you’re taking care of a house instead of children. It may be a suitable job for me. 　　W: The student employment office still has a few jobs posted. 　　M: Do I just have to fill out an application form? 　　W: Yes, and Tom and Boris had to interview with the homeowners and provide three references each. 　　M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job. 　　W: Well, the homeowners want some guarantee that they can trust the house-sitter. You know, they want to make sure you’re not the type who’ll throw wild parties in their house, or move a group of friends in with you. 　　M: House-sitters who do that sort of thing probably aren’t paid then. 　　W: Usually they’re paid anyway just because the homeowners don’t want to make a fuss. But if the homeowner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn’t be able to get another job. So why don’t you give it a try? 　　M: Yeah, I think I will.

　　Questions 19-22 are based on the conversation you have just heard. 　　19. What does the man want to do this summer? 　　20. What did the Alexanders do when they went away on holiday last summer? 　　21. What is one responsibility the house-sitter probably wouldn’t have? 　　22. How do homeowners determine the reliability of a house-sitter?

　　Conversation Two: 　　W: Good morning, sir. 　　M: Good morning. I wonder if you can help. I have lost my coat. 　　W: Where did you lose it, sir? 　　M: Er… I left it on the …um… on the ground yesterday morning. 　　W: Can you describe it? 　　M: Well, it’s a full-length brown overcoat with a checkered pattern on it. It’s got a wide belt, and one of those thick furry collars that keep your ears warm. It’s a very nice coat, actually. 　　W: Hmm. I’m afraid we haven’t got anything like that, sir. Sorry. 　　M: Well, to tell you the truth, I lost another coat last week. On the bus. It’s a three-quarter length coat- it’s grey, with big black buttons and a black belt. 　　W: Sorry, sir. Nothing like that. 　　M: Hmm. And then only this morning I left my white raincoat in a park. It’s got a silk lining… 　　W: Look, sir. I’m very busy now. If you really need a coat so badly, there’s a very good second-hand clothes shop just round the corner…

　　Questions 23-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard. 　　23. Where did the conversation probably happen? 　　24. What can we infer about the man? 　　25. What did the woman think of the man?
