聽力原文：MRS SMITH: Hello, Mrs Sutton. Come in. How are you settling in next door? Have all your things from Canada arrived yet? I thought I saw a removals van outside your house yesterday afternoon.

MRS SUTTON: Yes. They came yesterday. We spent all day yesterday arranging them. It's beginning to feel a bit more like home now.

MRS SMITH: That's good. Look, come in and sit down. Are you alright? You look a bit worried.

MRS SUTTON: Well, I am a bit. I'm sorry to bother you so early, Mrs Smith, but I

wonder if you could help me. Could you tell me how I can get hold of a

doctor? Our daughter, Anna, isn't very well this morning and I may have Q11

to call somebody out. She keeps being sick and I am beginning to get a

bit worried. I just don't know how the health system works here in

England. All I know is that it's very different from ours back in Canada.

MRS SMITH: Well, I don't know really where to start. Let me think. Well, the first thing

you have to do is find a family doctor sometimes we call them general

practitioners as well - and register with him or her. If you live here, you've

got to be on a doctor's list. If you're not, things can be a bit difficult.

Nobody will come out to you if you're not registered. Anyway, they work Q12

in things called practices. Sort of small groups of family doctors all

working together in the same building. Now what you've got to do this

morning is register with one of them.

There are two practices near here, so we're quite well off for doctors in

this part of Manchester. There's the Dean End Health Centre about ten

minutes' walk away and there's another practice in South Hay. That's

about five minutes away going towards the town centre. We're registered

at the Dean End one, but they're both OK. There are about six doctors in Q13

our practice and four in the other. So ours is quite big in comparison. Q14

And the building and everything's a bit more modern. South Hay is a bit

old-fashioned but the doctors are OK. Their only problem is that they Q15

don't have a proper appointment system. Sometimes you have to wait for

ages there to see someone.

Anyway, you go to the receptionist in whichever health centre and ask

her to register you with a doctor there. You have to fill in a form, but it

doesn't take long. Ours is called Dr Jones and we've been going to him for

years - ever since we moved here fifteen years ago. I wouldn't say he's

brilliant but I suppose he's alright really. We're used to h

聽力原文：M: Hello. Mrs. Smith. I’m from The Daily Mirror and I'm doing a report on public opinion about the city bus service. So what do you think of the bus service?

W: The bus service? Actually I don't use that often unless I have to go shopping.

M: But how could the bus service be improved?

W: Well, they should turn up on time. I mean when you see the timetable, you think "Oh well, five minutes to wait" but it turns out to be an hour.

M: Do any other people in your family use the bus service?

W: My husband. He uses it more often. Fortunately, a girl who works in his office often gives him a lift into work. But when he does need to use it, he's often angry at it. Once he waited up to 50 minutes at the station for a bus. There should be some ways of warning people when a bus is not going to arrive and certainly much more frequent bus services.

What exactly does the man want to find out?

A．What people think of the bus service.

B．How many people are using the bus service.

C．Which group of people use the bus service most often.

聽力原文：M: And now, Mrs. Smith, can you tell us what happened at your apartment when the earthquake ended?

W: Oh, it was terrible. I'll never forget it. Well, Jack and I always get up at about a quarter to five. He has to work early. You see, while I was in the kitchen preparing breakfast, the quake came. There was this horrible sound and the floor was just bouncing and rolling like wave, all at the same time.

M: Then what did you do?

W: Well, we figure out it was an earthquake. Then I crawled under the table, and I shouted at Jack to come. But he just stood there.

M: Whoa!

W: It lasted 24 seconds, and then it stopped. And Jack and I could hear people talking outside, so we tried to go out to the front door, but it was jammed shut. And then the first aftershock hit.

M: That's incredible. Then what did you guys do?

W: Well, I remember that someone shouted, "Get out of there, quickly!" Jack said: "Well, go out of the window." But I called out: "It's too high up," because we were living on the second floor. "Not any more," Jack shouted back. So, we looked out of the window and, sure enough, we were down on the ground!

M: Your second floor apartment was on the ground?

W: We couldn't believe it. We opened the window and crawled out. Once we were down safely, we turned around and looked back at our apartment building. The whole first was gone -- it was just totally flattened.

M: Mrs. Smith. Do you mean that the whole first floor was gone?

W: Yes, the first floor was gone.

M: And what about your apartment?

W: The apartment -- can you believe it? Had moved and stood there.

M: Incredible, Mrs. Smith, absolutely incredible.
