Conversation Two
W: Now you’ve seen this table of figures about the pocket money children in Britain get?
M: Yes. I thought it was quite interesting, but I don’t quite understand the column entitled change. Can you explain what it means?
W: Well, I think it means the change from the year before. I am not a mathematician, but I assume the rise from 70p to 90p is a rise of 25 percent.
M: Oh yes, I see. And the inflation rate is there for comparison.
W: Yes. why do you think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation?
M: I am sorry I’ve no idea. Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous.
W: Perhaps they are. But it looks as if children were not better off in 2001 than they were in 2002. That’s strange, isn’t it? And they seem to have been better off in 2003 than they are now. I wonder why that is.
M: Yes, I don’t understand that at all.
W: Anyway, if you had children, how much pocket money would you give them?
M: I don’t know. I think I’ll probably give them 2 pounds a week.

Section B
Passage One
As the new sales director for a national computer firm, Alex Gordon was looking forward to his first meeting with the company’s district managers. Everyone arrived on time, and Alex’s presentation went extremely well. He decided to end the meeting with the conversation about the importance of the district managers to the company’s plans. “I believe we are going to continue to increase our share of the market,” he began, “because of the quality of the people in this room. The district manager is the key to the success of the sales representatives in his district. He sets the term for everyone else. If he has ambitious goals and is willing to put in long hours, everyone in his unit will follow his example.” When Alex was finished, he received polite applauses, but hardly the warm response he had hoped for. Later he spoke with one of the senior managers. “Things were going so well until the end”, Alex said disappointedly. “Obviously, I said the wrong thing.” “Yes”, the district manager replied. “Half of our managers are women. Most have worked their way up from sales representatives, and they are very proud of the role they played in the company’s growth. They don’t care at all about political correctness. But they were definitely surprised and distressed to be referred to as ‘he’ in your speech.”
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.

A) Some of them were political瞞inded.
B) Fifty percent of them were female.

Passage Two
The way to complain is to act business瞝ike and important. If your complaint is immediate, suppose you got the wrong order at a restaurant, make a polite but firm request to see the manager. When the manager comes, ask his or her name. And then state your problem and what you expect to have done about it. Be polite! Shouting or acting rude will get you nowhere. But also be firm in making your complaint. Besides, act important. This doesn’t mean to put on airs and say “do you know who I am?” What it means is that people are often treated the way they expect to be treated. If you act like someone who expects a fair request to be granted, chances are it will be granted. The worst way to complain is over the telephone. You are speaking to a voice coming from someone you cannot see. So you can’t tell how the person on the line is reacting. It is easy for that person to give you the run瞐round. Complaining in person or by letter is generally more effective. If your complaint doesn’t require an immediate response, it often helps to complain by letter. If you have an appliance that doesn’t work, send a letter to the store that sold it. Be business瞝ike and stick to the point. Don’t spend a paragraph on how your uncle John tried to fix the problem and couldn’t.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. What does the speaker suggest you do when you are not served properly at a restaurant?
A) State your problem to the head waiter.
B) Demand a discount on the dishes ordered.
C) Ask to see the manager politely but firmly.
D) Ask the name of the person waiting on you.
30.C)。属细节判断。四个选项均为动宾短语，可以推断此题是针对某种行为的。问题是说话者建议当你在餐馆遇到不满意的服务时应该怎样?根据原文make a polite but firm request to see the manager可知，正确答案应该是C，其他选项文中没有提及。
31. Why does the speaker say the worst way to complain is over the telephone?
A) Your problem may not be understood correctly.
B) You don’t know if you are complaining at the right time.
C) Your complaint may not reach the person in charge.
D) You can’t tell how the person on the line is reacting.
31.D)。属细节判断。四个选项是关于problems或complaints的否定式，可推测是关于未能解决问题的情况。由原文中的you can’t tell how the person on the line is reacting.可知，正确答案是D，其他选项均为干扰项。
32. What should you do if you make a complaint by letter?
A) Demand a prompt response.
B) Provide all the details.
C) Send it by express mail.
D) Stick to the point.
32.D)。属综合判断。四个选项均为动宾短语，可推测与某种行为有关。根据问题中的关键词by letter，可定为在最后几句。A与原文相反;B未提及;C也未提及;D与原文中的Be business瞝ike and stick to the point.表述一致，所以D是正确答案。
