听力原文：Narrator Listen to part of a conversation between a student and a professor. Student Professor King, we learnt something about the Myth of the Paperless Office last week, but I missed your lesson because my mum was badly ill. So I came here today to ask you some questions. Professor King You are welcome. What would you like to ask? Student Since I have read the article in our textbook, I want to know some background information about the paperless office. Professor King Well, here is a piece of paper and you can have a look at it first. Student Oh, in the spring of 1979, a model office opened in Washington, D. C. , touting itself as a world without paper—a workplace filled with the best technology and the promise of more sophisticated automation to come. But a quarter century later, all the advances of the information age have only ushered in the use of more and more paper—not less. Professor King Right, in fact that was just the very beginning. The amount of paper shipped by U. S. producers almost doubled from 1980 to 1995, from 16. 1 million tons to almost 30 million tons, according to the American Forest and Paper Association. Copier paper alone rose by 500 000 tons in just a year, from 1996 to 1997. Eliminating paper in business certainly is a desirable goal. But, unfortunately, its not currently realistic, since paper plays important psychological, aesthetic and legal functions in todays business world. Student I see now, and there are many advantages of hard copies over electronic documents, including better reader comprehension, less eyestrain, greater mobility, superior flexibility and an enhanced comfort level among workers. In addition, the U. S. and foreign countries vary considerably with regard to the legality of electronic documents and signatures, am I right? Professor King Precisely. Some of your points are mentioned in our texts and some are your own opinions, but they are all very exact, it seems you are interested in this topic. Student Yes, I am. I have read another article on the Internet, and it introduces some other hidden advantages over computers, especially in three aspects—reading, writing and personal satisfaction in delivery. However, that author analyzes two activities-air-traffic control and writing up police reports, and in the end he concludes computers cant replace paper completely. He suggests two reasons for such a chimera as paperless office, and finally, states that at least for now paperless office looks both unlikely and pointless. Professor King Very good. I plan to continue this topic next Monday in our class, and would you like to prepare a presentation about what you know on this topic? Im sure it will be very interesting and good. At the same time you can make up what you missed during the preparation. Student Thank you very much, professor King. I think for the time being its best to combine some use of paper with electronic or digital information systems. This approach can substantially reduce, although certainly not eradicate, the reliance on paper in peoples life. Professor King Well, if you have any questions, you can call me. Student Thank you very much, professor. Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer. 30. Why did the student miss the lesson? 31. Why did the student visit the professor? 32. According to the professor, what is the advantage of hard copies over electronic documents? 33. What will the student probably do next?

听力原文：Narrator Listen to part of a conversation between two students. Anna Hi, Jack. Jack Hi, Anna. Anna Are you free now? Jack Not too busy. What can I do for you? Anna I wanna discuss with you on the lecture the professor gave at the last class. Jack Oh, that was an interesting lecture, wasnt it ? Anna Yeah, that is why I am still thinking about his views. Jack So, what is your opinion on the topic of marketing? Anna Marketing merely reflects the needs and wants of consumers. Marketing deals with identifying and meeting human and social needs. Successful goods, including products and services, are those that are demanded or needed by consumers. That is the summary of the views in our textbook. Is that right? Jack Er, those are the views in our teaching materials. Anna Well, I think that marketing can sometimes shape consumers needs and wants. It helps us in making major decisions like what car to buy; what realtor to use; to not so major decisions like what computer to buy, where to shop for clothes, groceries etc. Jack Uh...for instance... Anna [regaining train of thought] Er, the marketer that uses the catchiest phrases; the funniest ads; the latest music in their ads and or the coolest celebrities in their ads, are usually the ones that get our attention... We tend to buy for some of these reasons, and so this proves that our needs are shaped by marketing. Jack Uh... [thinking] Hmmm...that sounds reasonable. Anna So... Jack But, I think buying from one retailer over another, because their marketing is better or more convincing is not saying that the marketer is shaping or creating a need though. Anna Oh? Why? Jack The need or want is established already in the buyers mind. It is up to the marketers to make their product stand out among the competition, so that you, satisfy your need with their product. Anna Uh... [thinking] Er...although marketing has been defined as satisfying customer needs and wants, I tend to agree with the critics. Marketers sometimes have "tremendous" swaying powers on encouraging consumers to spend more money than they should on goods or services that they simply do not need. Jack That is interesting, go on. Anna You see, I dont need a new computer, but Microsoft has a more updated one thats much faster and "it will make my life so much easier"(so they say). I have a 1999 Mazda. It runs fine, but the advertisement for the new 2005 Mazda is sticking in my mind. Will I buy that new Mazda 626, hmmm? Jack Excellent. You seem to have thought about the topic deeply. Next class, you can discuss it with the professor, then we can hold a debate. Anna [leaving] Great. I think other students will also be excited to discuss the topic. I wanna go to the library to find reference books for the discussion. Bye! Jack Okay, bye! Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer. 7. Why does Anna go to see her classmate? 8. Why does the woman think that marketing can sometimes shape consumers needs and wants? 9. What is Jacks suggestion for the next business class? Listen again to part of the conversation. Then answer the question. Jack But, I think buying from one retailer over another, because their marketing is better or more convincing is not saying that the marketer is shaping or creating a need though. Anna Oh? Why? 10.
