W: Really? Where are you going?
M: I'm planning to visit New Mexico.
W: My sister and I vacationed there last year and we had a great time.
M: Did you get into Albuquerque?
W: Sure. Whenever we were skiing.
M: Is it far from the mountains?
W: Not at all. See even though Albuquerque is on a high flat plateau. There are even higher mountains near it. Just half an hour away from the city there are snow-covered slopes.
M: Well. As the mountains are just thirty minutes away, I guess I should take my ice skate and my ski's.
W: Definitely.
M: I heard that the weather there is great.
W: It is. No humidity, moderate temperatures, but you do need to be careful about high altitude.
M: What should I do about that?
W: Oh, just take it easy for a few days. Don't go hiking up the mountains or exercise too vigorously. Just do everything gradually.
M: I'm sure I will be fine. And I will let know all about my trip when I come back.

Question 35-38 Listen to two students talk about eating at the school cafeteria.
M: Hey Linda, did you get that letter about the new options for food service next year?
W: Not yet. Are there a lot of changes?
M: There sure are. Instead of paying one fee to cover all meals for the whole school year, we are now be able to choose how many meals a week we want and can contract just for that amount. We still have pay the whole year at the beginning, but we can choose to buy seven, ten, fourteen or twenty-one meals per week. They give you a card with the number of meals you get for a week marked on it.
W: That's a big change Tom. And a complicated system.
M: Yeah. But it will be much better for people who don't eat three meals a day, seven days a week in the cafeteria because they don't have to pay meals they don't eat.
W: So what's the deal for those who do eat at school all the time?
M: It's better for them too. Because the more meals you contract for, the cheaper each one is.
W: I see. It is still sound rather complicated.
M: True. It took me several hours to figure it out. I decided to go with the ten meal plan.
W: Why is that?
M: Well, I never eat breakfast and I often go away on weekends. So the ten meal plan gives me lunch and dinner every weekday at a fairly low price. And I won't be paying for meals I don't usually eat.
W: And what about the weekends when you are on campus?
M: Well, there are often guests on campus at weekends. So they allow you to buy single meals on a walk-in basis on Saturdays and Sundays. The price per meal is much higher that way. But I am away so much that is will still be less money for me to pay single prices on the weekends rather than sign up for the fourteen meal a week plan.
W: Oh, I guess I'll have to sit down and figure out my eating pattern so I can get the best deal.
35. What's the main feature of the new method of paying for meals?
36. When do the students pay for the meals they contract for?
37. How does the new plan benefit the students who eat all their meals at the school cafeteria?
38. How can weekend guest eat in the cafeteria?

Question 39-42 Listen to this talk being given to college campus.
I was really glad when your club invited me to share my coin collection. It's been my passion since I collected my first Lincoln cent in 1971. That is the current penny with Abraham Lincoln's image. Just a little history before I started my own collection. Lincoln pennies are made of copper and they were the first the United States coins to bear the likeness of the president. It was back in 1909 when the country was celebrating the centennial of Lincoln's birth than 1809 that the decision was made to redesign the one-cent piece in his honor. Before that, the penny had an American Indian head on it. The new penny was designed by artist Victor David Braner. This is interesting because he put his initials VDB on the reverse of the coin as the original design. There was a general uproar when the initials were discovered. And only a limited number of coins were struck with the initials on them. Today a penny with the initials from a San Francisco mint called the 1909's VDB is worth 500 dollars. Now when I started my coin collection, I began with penny for several reasons. There were a lot of them, several hundred billion were minted and there were a lot of people collecting them. So I have plenty of people to trade with and talk to about my collection. Also it was the coin I could afford to collect as a young teenager. In the twenty five years since then, I have managed to acquire over three hundred coins; some of them are very rare. I will be sharing with you today some of my rare specimen including the 1909's VDB.
