听力原文：M: I see you and your friends have been decorating the dormitory lounge.

W: The walls look so stark and dreary, we decided to cover them with prints and posters.

M: I like this one, and you bought it on campus？

W: No, I bought it at the museum of modern art in New York city. The Art History Department recently sponsored a special museum tour there.

M: Is this a reproduction of something in the museum collection？

W: Yes. It's a print of a painting by Georgia O'keffe called "lake Georgia window".

M: It looks more like a photograph. The details are so accurate and realistic.

W: I thought the same thing when I first saw the painting hanging in the museum. But the art history teacher pointed out how the painting is in fact very stylized.

M: What do you mean？

W: First, by choosing a front view of the window, O'keffe was able to present a symmetrical image and eliminate any hint of three dimensionality.

M: It does look almost flat. The open shutters seem to have no depth at all.

W: To emphasize that two dimensional look, O'keffe also eliminated details of texture. The shutters, for example.

M: Yes, their surface even looks as flat as the glass of the window pane.

W: So even though she created a realistic painting of a window, O'keffe stylized and simplified the shapes to resemble an abstract design.

M: It sounds as though you learned a lot on the trip. Is the Art History Department planning another museum tour？

W: Yes, the next one is a special exhibit of European painters at the museum of fine art in Boston. I think 1 will sign up for that one. Maybe I will even come back with a print to decorate the bare walls of my dormitory.

Where are the speakers？

A．In a museum.

B．In an art history class.

C．In the woman's dormitory.

听力原文：W: Elizabeth Martin speaking.

M: Dr. Martin, my name is Mark Johnson. My roommate Benjamin John is in your art history class, Art History 502.

W: Yes.

M: Well, he's sick and won't be in your class today. He asked me to bring his term paper to your office.

W: OK. The paper is due by three o'clock.

M: I have a class from one to two. I'll bring it to your office after my class.

W: Well, I have a meeting this afternoon, so you can drop it off with the secretary of the Art History Department. She'll see that I get it.

M: OK. Oh, I almost forgot. I'm a biology major, but my adviser told me that I need one more humanities course to graduate. I noticed you're teaching a course on landscape painters next semester. Could you tell me a little bit about it？

W: Sure. Well, it's a course for non-art majors. We'll be looking at several different painters and examining their works. We'll also look at the history and politics of the era in which they lived.

M: That sounds interesting. What is required for the course？

W: There's no final exam, and there's only one required book. But each student has to give a major presentation about an individual painter at the end of the course.

M: Hm, it sounds good. Will you be in your office later today？ I'd like to talk with you about it.

W: Well, my meeting's scheduled to last all afternoon. Why don't you stop by tomorrow anytime in the afternoon？ My office is in the Fine Arts Building right next to the library.

听力原文：W: Hi, Mike! You missed a great history lecture this morning. Where were you？

M: Oh, I overslept again. This really is becoming a bad habit. What did Professor Brown talk about today？

W: Can you believe it？ We talked about George Washington's false teeth.

M: Oh, all I know it is said they were made of wood.

W: Well, that turns out as a myth. A professor at a dental school in California presented a paper three months ago showing that Washington's teeth were made of many things, including, can you imagine, elephant ivory and cow's teeth, but not wood.

M: But why do people say Washington's teeth were made of wood？

W: A set of his teeth that were made of elephant ivory were shown publicly at various exhibitions around the country about a hundred years ago. The ivory had turned a very dark color, and I guess, look like wood.

M: Mm, yes. I've seen some ivory that was dark brown color. What about cow's teeth？

W: You know cows have teeth just on their bottom jaws. After about five years of biting grass off against their hard upper jaws, the bottom teeth wear down into the shape of a human tooth. So they, too ,were used to make false teeth fifty years ago.

M: That's really interesting. Well, this will certainly teach me not to oversleep again. I wonder whether little-known Professor Brown will have false teeth next week.

It is said that Washington's teeth were made of

A．sheep's teeth.

B．cow's teeth.

C．stone.

D．wood.
