Now you'll hear the two long conversations.
Conversation one
W: Well hi there. What are you looking for today?
M: Uh, I'm just looking.
W: Well, how about a ring for [19]someone special?
M: [19]There is NO one special.
W: Well, take a look at this CD player. A great bargain today only.
M: Nah. I already have one, plus the handle is cracked.
W: Okay. Well, what about this genuine leather jacket? It would look great on you.
M: Hum. Let me take a look at it.
W: Sure.
M: Umm. [20]There are stains on the sleeves. I'll pass.
W: Well okay. Well, wouldn't you like to walk home with some of these great records? Some of the best hits from the 1960's.
M: Yeah, let's see. Now here's something I'd... Ah, these records are scratched.
W: Just in a couple of places. Listen. I'll sell you [21]a dozen of records for fifty dollars. A steal!
M: [21]Whoa! They're way too expensive. I'll give you twenty-five bucks for them.
W: Ah, come on. I can't charge you less than thirty dollars and break even.
M: Well, that guy over there is selling similar records for a much better price, so thanks anyway.
W: Wait, wait, wait, wait. You drive a hard bargain. [21]Twenty-eight dollars, that's my final offer.
M: Huh... I'll think about it.
W: OK, wait, wait, wait, wait. Listen. I'll even throw in this vase.
M: Now what am I going to do with a vase?
W: Well, you can give it to that someone special when you find her... and this ring would look great with it.
M: Oh, I'll [21]stick with the records.

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. Why did the man not buy the ring for sale?
正确答案：C
解析：根据对话，女士推荐戒指，说男子可以把戒指送给他的恋人，男子没作考虑，因为他还没有恋人，还没有买戒指的需要。故C正确。选项是否定含义的句子，根据关键词special, inexpensive, necessary, size，可初步猜测题目与对某物的评价或买卖有关。戒指通常都是买来送给别人的，听到双方讨论的焦点在“someone special”，就知道关键在“购买的动机”上，而不是在戒指本身。
20. Why is the man not interested in leather jacket?
正确答案：A
解析：根据对话，皮衣袖子上有污点，所以男子没有兴趣买。故A是正确答案。选项都是形容词，可猜测题目与某物的性质或特征有关。特别注意各选项的读音相近，考的是如何进行区分，留意录音内容，不要断章取义。
21. What did the man probably purchase from the woman in the end?
正确答案：B
解析：根据对话，最后店主让步到$28卖出12张唱片，还要送顾客一个花瓶，但顾客说stick with the records，表明他要这些唱片，但不要花瓶。所以B正确。选项是价钱和货物，可猜测题目与出价或成交有关。从选项可以判断提问与“records, vase”有关，关键在于注意听问题怎么问。
