為了提高大家的英語聽力水平，小編今天給大家整理了一套英語聽力的練習題，大家有時間可以練一練。

　　(Text 1)

　　M: Can I leave now?

　　W: Sure, Jim. But remember to pay more attention to your work, or you won’t pass the final exams.

　　(Text 2)

　　M: I wonder if Suzy will be here by 5 o’clock.

　　W: Her husband said she left home at 4:30. She should be here at 5:15.

　　(Text 3)

　　W: What should we do today? Do you have any idea?

　　M: Why don’t we go to the National Exhibition? I heard that there’s a good show going on. We can see a lot of things.

　　(Text 4)

　　M: It’s been raining since Monday, but the weather report says that tomorrow will be clear and sunny. Thank goodness, we can at last say goodbye to the rain.

　　W: That’s really good news. You know I always play football on Saturday, and I like to play in good weather.

　　(Text 5)

　　M: How did you like the chemistry course last term?

　　W: If you ask me, the course could have been better organized.

　　M: You are right, Freda. In my opinion, he has taught that course so many times that he is bored with it and just doesn’t care any more.

　　(Text 6)

　　W: I enjoy going through a secondhand bookstore, don’t you? It’s interesting to see what people used to enjoy reading. Did you see this old book of children’s stories?

　　M: Some of these books aren’t so old, though... See? This mystery was published only six years ago. It cost seventy-five cents. You can’t beat that.

　　W: Hey! Look at this!

　　M: What? Are you getting interested in nineteenth century poetry all of a sudden?

　　W: No. Look at the inscription! Someone gave this book as a present, and wrote a note on the inside of the front cover. It’s dated 1893. Maybe it’s worth something.

　　M: Everything on that shelf is worth fifty cents.

　　W: But if this is a signature of someone who is well known, it might bring a lot more. I hear William Shakespeare’s signature is worth about a million dollars.

　　(Text 7)

　　W: Good evening, sir, madam. A table for two?

　　M: No, thank you. But we have a small problem. Can you help us?

　　W: Sure. What can I do for you?

　　M: We are looking for a hotel. Are there any hotels near here?

　　W: Yes, there are some hotels in the street. The nearest one is next to the bank. It’s quite modern.

　　M: Do you think there’re any inexpensive ones nearby? We’re leaving tomorrow morning.

　　W: Yes. Drive west for about two minutes and you will find a grey building on the right side. It’s a traditional family style hotel, very comfortable, and the price is quite reasonable.

　　M: It sounds nice. Thank you very much for your help.

　　W: That’s all right.

　　(Text 8)

　　W: Hi. I’m glad I ran into you.

　　M: Why? What’s up?

　　W: Would you like to go climbing this weekend?

　　M: I’m not sure. I promised to help my sister move on Saturday.

　　W: How about Sunday, then? We could start early in the morning.

　　M: I might be able to do that. Let me check and I’ll call you up tonight.

　　W: Great! By the way, I won’t be home before 10 o’clock.

　　M: Then, how can I reach you?

　　W: I’ve got an answering machine. You can simply call and leave a message. Your voice will be recorded.

　　M: I hate talking to a machine. It feels strange.

　　W: All right. I’ll give you another telephone number. I’ll be at my mother’s home.

　　(Text 9)

　　M: Say, Lisa, what are you doing?

　　W: Watching a Japanese film. I’m going to spend all next year in Japan, and I think I should find out more about its culture.

　　M: You mean you have been accepted into the program?

　　W: I sure have.

　　M: That’s wonderful. You must be excited.

　　W: Excited and nervous. You know I have to work on some basic conversation skills.

　　M: How much Japanese can you understand?

　　W: Only a little now. But I’m going to take a special language class next month.

　　M: I wish I were as clever as you are at foreign languages. I would love to study abroad.

　　W: Then why don’t you? The school has a lot of programs that don’t require the mastery of a foreign language. You just have to be the kind of person who is quick to learn new things and can get used to a new environment fast.

　　M: I thought all programs required one to know a foreign language. Thank you for letting me know this.
