听力原文: My first semester of college was the worst I've been through. I had made plans during the summer to share an apartment with two of my close friends from high school. But before we moved in,problems started developing.
One of the two girls I was to share an apartment with was going to work instead of going to college。 However,a week before we were to move in,she found out that she didn't get the job. She is forced to live at home and look for work. The rest two of us lasted for a month and then agreed that we couldn't make it with the higher monthly rent payments. I started looking around.
I found another apartment and the rent wasn't bad. The place was noisy,but it was the best I could afford for the time. However,one day when I returned,I saw smoke coming from the back of the house. The cottage had caught fire,and my room was a burned mess。I was once more out of a place to stay.
I finally gave up looking around and moved home. I had to drive forty miles to school every day,so I almost spent as much on gas as I would have on lodging. I was very bored I almost lost the will to study. It had been really a bad semester!

听力原文: Now I'd like to talk to you about the final exam. The exam will be held next Thursday, he last day of the exam week. Remember to bring two or three pens in case one is out of ink. Unlike the mid-term this test will not include multiple choice questions. It will consist entirely of essays. You'll have to answer three of the five essay questions. The exam will be comprehensive. This means you will be responsible for all of the subject matter we're covered in class. I would suggest you review the mid-term as well as the textbook and your class notes. The final will count for 50% of your grade in the course; the research project will count for 20%; and the mid-term 30%.
I'll be in my office almost all day on Tuesday of next week. If you run into any problem, please feel free to stop in. Good luck with your studying! I'll see you on Thursday.

A.On a Tuesday.
B.On a Wednesday.
