[17:30.19]Exercise 1:Directions:Listen to the passage and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.
[17:44.38]It was a bit of bad luck when the man's car broke down-he was stuck in a no-parking zone.
[17:51.94]So he went into a store to borrow a pen and paper to leave a note for the traffic police.
[17:58.20]Then pen, however, was like his car. It didn't work. When he decided to go back to the store to buy a pen,
[18:08.14]he found another little problem. He only had a $50 bill and the salesclerk couldn't change it.
[18:16.02]So he went off to find a bank to change the bill to buy the pen to write on the paper to put on his car to tell the traffic police that his car had broken down.
[18:27.40]As he left the bank he spotted a phone booth. He decided to call a garage to send a truck to tow the car away,
[18:36.61]but the number was busy. When he got back to his car he found a parking ticket on the windshield.
[18:44.68]The story has, however, a happy ending. The driver wrote to the Police Commissioner to explain what had happened.
[18:53.60]The police office who read the letter decided to let him off the $20 parking fine. She said that even if the man's story was not true,
[19:04.73]it was so clever he deserved to be let off! (213 words)
[19:08.47]1)The man came across bad luck at the very beginning of this story.
[19:15.02]2)The pen he borrowed from the store didn't work.
[19:20.60]3)The man saw a phone booth on the way back from the bank.
[19:25.90]4)He found a parking ticket on his car before he put on the note.
[19:31.58]5)The police officer didn't punish him because she thought he told a true story.
[19:38.60]6)The story shows that a run of bad luck may sometimes follow you.

[20:19.36]Exercise 1:Directions:Listen to the interview and decide whether the following statements are true or false.
[20:30.70]Martha White, the oldest citizen of Sweetwater, in USA, just celebrated her one hundredth birthday.
[20:40.67]A reporter (R) was at the party and asked Mrs White (M) to talk about her life.
[20:46.79]R:Mrs White, you've had a very long and a very full life.
[20:51.54]M:Yes, I've been very fortunate.
[20:55.32]R:Have you always lived in Sweetwater?
[20:58.13]M:All my life. As a matter of fact, I was born in this house. Of course, I've taken many trips in my life.
[21:08.96]I've been all over the world. But I've always come back to Sweetwater. That's the way it used to be in the old days.
[21:18.86]You were born in a town, and you lived there until you died.
[21:23.76]R:How many children did you have?
[21:26.96]M:Six. First I had four boys and then two girls. The oldest is seventy-five now,
[21:36.11]and my baby is sixty-eight. And, of course, they all had children of their own, and their children had children.
[21:47.23]The last time I counted I had thirty great-grandchildren.
[21:54.90]So you see I've never felt honely and I've never been bored. Who has time?
[22:01.99]R:Your first husband died ten years ago...
[22:05.12]M:Yes, at the age of ninety. We had seventy-three wonderful years together.
[22:14.27]We were very much alike, you know. Our greatest loves were music and the outdoors.
[22:22.44]And talking, too. Both of us loved a good conversation.
[22:28.78]People don't talk to each other anymore. They watch television.
