AI was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left at message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more and impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!” And she swept it into the wastebasket.I stood watching her, speechless. What on earth...?She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the test of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room----if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”Then she turned to me. Kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight , I noticed that something in my mood (情绪) had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her anties helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him and talk to him calmly.56. Why did the author shout at the telephone?A. He was mad at the telephone.B. He was angry with his agent.C.

听力原文：W: Hi, Sam, I hate to bother you but I wonder if I could have a word with you?M: Sounds so serious. What's up?W: Well, the landlord just informed me that he's going to increase our rent by two hundred. I'm wondering how you feel about it.M: How do I feel about it? No way! In our tenancy agreement, it says he will have to give us a notice three months in advance if he wants to increase the rent.W: Yeah, that's right! It's gotta be three months later. Well, I think he realizes his rental fee is below the market rate and he must be feeling a bit ripped off when he could be charging a couple hundred extra. What do you think Sam? Should we agree to the raise or find somewhere else?M: Good question. I'm not sure either. The location we're at now is quite convenient. Close to the grocery and near the subway. It'll be hard to find another location like this one.W: I wonder whether he'll allow room for negotiation. Perhaps a hundred dollars instead of two. Maybe he might be more willing to give a bit if we speak to him right way.M: Well, he seems to be a nice guy to talk to. But what if he refuses? Would you go for two then?W: Well, I guess I would, since it'll be hard to find such a convenient location. Besides, it's close to my school and I can sleep a little later in the mornings.M: Ha! I figured that's what you'd be concerned about. Well, I have to give it some serious thought. I'm not sure I can afford to cough up an extra hundred a month just to make sure I can sleep in an extra 15 minutes.W: Didn't you get your loan recently? That'll cover what you need. Besides, if you could just stop spending so much on cafeteria snacks you'd have lots of money to spare.M: Yeah, but I'm thinking of getting a new laptop.W: Well, I tell you, there aren't a lot of apartments that are cheaper, even with this new increase.M: I know, so when does he want us to come back on this?W: He told me to let him know this weekend.M: Sure, by then I should be able to make up my mind.(20)A．Where they should move.B．How to negotiate with the landlord.C．How to fight the increase.D．Whether to accept an increase in rent or move.

Like every language,American English is full of special expressions,phrases that come from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way．Our expression today is“to face the music”．
When someone says,“well,I guess I’ll have to face the music,”it does not mean he’s planning to go to the concert．It is something far less pleasant,like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that,and why you didn’t do this or that．Sour music indeed,but it has to be faced At sometime or another,every one of us has had to face the music,especially as children．We can all remember father’s angry voice,“I want to talk to you．”and only because we did not obey him．What an unpleasant business it was!
The phrase“to face the music”is familiar to every American,young and old,It is at least 100 years old
．And where did this expression come from?The first explanation comes from the American novelist,James Fenimore Looper．He said,in 1851,that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage．When they got their cue to go on,they often said,“Well,it’s time to face the music．”And that was exactly what they did—facing the orchestra which was just below them．And an actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be friendly or perhaps?hostile,especially if he forgot his lines．But he had to go out．If he did not,there would be no play．So the expression“to face the music”come to mean“having to go through something,no matter how unpleasant the experience might be,because you knew you had no choice．”
Other explanations about the expression go back to the army．When the men faced an inspection by their leader,the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked
．Was their equipment clean,shinny enough to pass the inspection?Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the inspection．What else could they do?
Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done．As,for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something terrible,he is dishonored
．The band does not play．Only the drums tap a sad,slow beat．The soldier is forced to leave,facing such music as it is and facing the back of his horse．
Which of the following is a situation of facing the music?A.When we are playing basketbal
B.When we are making a speec
C.When we are having a part

When I was about 12 1 had an enemy,a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings．Week by week her list grew:I was skinny,I wasn't a good student,I was boyish,I talked too loud,and so on．I put up with her as long as I could．At last,with great anger,I ran to my father in tears.
He listened to my outburst quietly．Then he asked,"Are the things she says true or not?"
True?I wanted to know how to strike back．What did truth have to do with it?
"Mary,didn't you ever wonder what you are really like?Well,you now have that girl's opinion．Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true．Pay no attention to the other things she said."
I did as he directed and discovered to my surprise that about half the things were true．Some of them I couldn't change(like being skinny),but a good number I could and suddenly wanted to change．
For the first time in my life I got a fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy．He refused to take it.
"That's just for you,"he said．"You know better than anybody else the truth about yourself,once you hear it．But you've got to learn to listen,not to close your ears in anger or hurt．When something said about you is true you'll know it．You'll find that it will echo inside you."
Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments．

To face the music Like every
language, American English is full of special expressions, phrases that come
from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way. Our
expression today is "to face the music". When someone
says, "well, I guess I’ll have to face the music," it does not mean he’s
planning to go to the concert. It is something far less pleasant, like being
called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that, and why you
didn’t do this or that. Sour music indeed, but it has to be faced. At sometime
or another, every one of us has had to face the music, especially as children.
We can all remember father’s angry voice, "I want to talk to you." and only
because we did not obey him. What an unpleasant business it was!
The phrase "to face the music" is familiar to every American,
young and old. It is at least 100 years old. And where did this expression come
from The first explanation comes from the American novelist, James Fenimore
Looper. He said, in 1851, that the expression was first used by actors while
waiting in the wings to go on the stage. When they got their cue to go on, they
often said, "Well, it’s time to face the music." And that was exactly what they
did-facing the orchestra which was just below them. And an actor might be
frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that
might be friendly or perhaps hostile, especially if he forgot his lines. But he
had to go out. If he did not, there would be no play. So the expression "to face
the music "come to mean "having to go through something, no matter how
unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no
choice." Other explanations about the expression go back to the
army. When the men faced an inspection by their leader, the soldiers would be
worried about how well they looked. Was their equipment clean, shinny enough to
pass the inspection Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band
as well as the inspection. What else could they do Another
army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and
accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done. As,
for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something
terrible, he is dishonored. The band does not play. Only the drums tap a sad,
slow beat. The soldier is forced to leave, facing such music as it is and facing
the back of his horse.How many ways does the phrase "to face the music" comes from
A、1B、2C、3D、4
