Text 7 M: Hi, Sue. How’s it going? W: Oh, hi, Frank, just fine. How are your classes? M: Pretty good. I’m glad this is my last term here, though. W: Why is that? I thought you were enjoying school. M: I was. But now I’m getting tired of it. I’m ready for the real world. W: What are you planning to do when you graduate? M: First, I want to get a job as a computer programmer, and then after five years or so, I’d like to start my own business. W: Sounds good. I still have three terms to go until I’m done. M: You’ll make it for sure. Well, see you later. W: Bye! Text 8 M: Hello, Milton Hotel Reservations. How may I assist you? W: Hi, I’m calling to make some changes to an existing reservation. M: Certainly. Do you have the reservation number? W: Sure, it’s 2**. M: That’s a reservation for Sally Menkel. Is that right? W: Yes, that’s right. I’d like to change the check-in date from September 15 to September 16. M: Certainly. I can make that change for you. Is that the only change? W: No, the check-out date will also change from the 23rd to the 24th. M: No problem. We have you arriving on the 16th of September and leaving the 24th of September — altogether, eight nights. Will there be anything else? W: Yes. Instead of a courtyard room, I’d like a room with a view, preferably on an upper floor. M: I can certainly change that for you, but there will be a change in the room rate. The new rate is $**9 per night, instead of the original $179. W: That’s OK. These are all the changes. Thank you very much. M: You’re welcome. Have a nice day! Text 9 W: Gordon, I’m going to Keswick in the Lake District this weekend. M: Really? W: Yeah, five of us. Why don’t you join us? We’re getting to Keswick on Friday. Then we’re going boating on Saturday. And on Sunday, we’re going to do some shopping. Then I will take some time to visit my aunt Lucy. M: You’re not going to camp, are you? Isn’t it a bit cold? W: No, we’re not. It is a bit cold. We’re staying in a country inn. It’s not like five-star hotels or anything. But it’s really comfortable. M: Hmm, sounds interesting. You know, it’s the boating that I don’t like. W: Well, what are you up to? M: Sit on my sofa all weekend and watch the DVDs I’ve just bought. And that will be a busy weekend. I may finish watching Friends. W: I don’t know how you can do that all weekend, Gordon. I’d get bored. M: I know, I know. But that’s really what I want to do. Text 10 M: Hello. Welcome to the program. In America, May and June are the traditional months for graduations. A listener in China, Wang Ming, who is about to get an engineering degree, wants to know how American college graduates find jobs. Right now, the answer is: not very easily. A latest study on the college job market showed that employers wanted to hire 22% fewer graduates this year than last. The study also showed that just **% of those who looked for jobs before graduation have found one by now. This is compared to half of students who had looked for a job by this time two years ago. But one difference: fewer of this year’s graduates have started to search for jobs. Engineering graduates were more likely to have started their job search already, and to have accepted a job. This is among the best-paid professions for people with just a college degree. On average, engineering majors expect to start at about $62,000 a year. 更多关于高考英语试题及参考答案的河北省高考学习资讯，请学友加好学网官方微信号haoxueecom，或扫一扫加关注： 学友请微信搜索好学网，或加公众号 haoxueecom 获取更多学习资讯！ |
