M:Will you plug this in…Oh, wait a second…let me just look at this message.

W:You’re always looking at messages on your phone! How many messaging apps do you have, David?

M:Four? Five? Maybe six by now…

W:If you have an average of 10 people on each of those six social networks who send you messages every day, that’s at least 60 conversations! Let’s say you spend as little as one minute on each conversation…That’s a whole hour! But you would probably spend two or three times that much for each person…What a waste of time!

M:Calm down, Maggie.It’s my mother.We’re making plans for the weekend.She’s one of the five people I regularly text.

W:Hello, Mr White.Do you think it’s possible for us to talk sometime today?

M:I’d love to, Miss Wilson, but I’ve got a pretty tight schedule today.I’ve got to finish reading the yearly financial report by 10.Then I have to drive to the airport to pick up an advertiser at 11. After that, I’ll have a meeting with him over lunch.

W:Can I see you after lunch?

M:Well, let me see…after lunch, I have to attend a senior staff meeting, which may last about two hours.Can you come at 3? We can talk for an hour before I meet my sales team at 4.

W:I’m afraid an hour is too short.What about tomorrow morning?

M:9 to 11, then.I’ll wait for you at the office.

W:OK, see you then.

W:Hello, Bruce.I haven’t seen you this past autumn.

M:I know.My parents put me in a private school.

W:What do you think so far?

M:The school is really nice.

W:I heard that you can’t wear the clothes you want.Is that true?

M:Yeah.We have to wear a dress shirt, a tie, and dress pants every day.

W:Really?

M:Yeah, but there are other cool things.They don’t take away our phones, and we are all getting our own personal computers when the spring comes.

W:That does sound cool! Do you have much homework for the holiday?

M:I just completed a book report, but I have a quiz on Africa when I get back.How about you?

W:All I have to do is read some chapters from my science textbook.

M:Since we both aren’t busy, why don’t we plan to meet up for a cup of coffee?

W:I’d love to.It will give us a chance to catch up.

M:Yeah, and it will give me a chance to wear something other than a uniform!

M:Hey, Alice.I’m sorry I am late.

W:Don’t worry about it.Did you have trouble finding a spot to park?

M:Actually, that wasn’t the problem.I left early enough to avoid the traffic, but I couldn’t get across the bridge.

W:What was happening on the bridge?

M:I couldn’t tell.I just saw the road signs, so I turned around and took the long way here.

W:Well, it looks like we missed the worst of the weather.It was pouring this morning.

M:That’s good.I can see the sky is clearing up and the wind has stopped.What are those tents for?

W:They’re for the food fair.It will close soon, so you’d better get over there if you want to eat.Unfortunately, you came a bit late for the music.

M:So what is this event all about, anyway?

W:It’s just a community festival we have every year.All the food, entertainment and activities represent many cultures in our city.

M:Cool.What’s happening across the street at the stadium? I saw that the local TV stations are all set up there.

W:That’s where all the dancing and sports events will take place.This area is for families.I saved us this spot on the grass here.

M:That sounds fun.I’ll go grab something at the tents, and then meet you back here.

听第10段材料,回答第18至20题。

Text 10

During my last trip to Europe,I had the opportunity to visit Stonehenge.I remember it was a very hot day in summer, with a lot of sunshine.Almost every tourist who travels to England visits this ancient,mystical place,which is considered one of the most famous prehistoric sites in the world.

The stones are huge.Our tour guide said that the square stones weigh nearly five tons each,stand eighteen feet high,and are three feet thick.It was amazing to see them up close.Something that I really asked myself was how the ancient people could be clever enough to arrange the stones as upright pillars,then connect the stones overhead,and place them altogether to form a circle.It was a great feeling to admire the huge stones up close.

It was really strange.As I walked around the stones,I noticed how lonely they were;there was nothing else standing around them,no community or anything.Were they also lonely in ancient times? If so,why had the ancient people built them that way? If only I could really travel back in time and find out!
