【听力原文】
M: Hello. Juliet. I know you are one of the few women taxi drivers in the city now, and you drive for a living. What made you want to become a taxi driver in the first place?
W: I took pride in driving well even when I was young, for I had to wait until I had a car to learn to drive. When I finally learned, it was something I really enjoyed and still enjoy. I remembered how smart those taxi drivers had seemed driving so well, and dressed so neatly in their uniforms and I thought I’d like to do that myself.
M: You really enjoy driving, I see. And how long have you been a taxi driver?
W: Er, all together 12 years.
M: Mm, for quite some time already, hasn’t it?
W:Yeah.
M: Then, what did you find the most difficult about becoming a taxi driver?
W: I can still remember when I was first learning to drive—it was scary, didn’t know yet how to judge distance, and when a big truck came near it seemed like its wheels would just come right over me. Anyway, soon I learned to judge distance. I began looking ahead, stopped worrying about trucks and about what was moving on either side.
M: In your opinion, what does it take to become a good driver?
W: Eh, besides driving well, the most important thing a taxi driver needs to know is the streets. and I knew the city well because I had rived in it for a long time. I knew all the main streets. and even the side streets. And of course you have to keep updating your knowledge of the streets, because the city changes. There might be a new road appearing somewhere one day.
M: Now, what about annual leaves? Do you have them?
W: Oh, yes. When I first started, I had only ten days. Now, I have three weeks every year, with pay.
M: Just out of curiosity. When you go on vacation to another place or city. do you drive there as well?
W: In most cases, not. I prefer to be driven by others, if we go by car. I would also prefer to go by train or plane, if there is a choice. I have already had too much driving in my life. So, when on holiday, I just want to relax.
M: I see. Let’s come back to your work. Are there any unpleasant aspects in your job?
W: The only serious difficulty in this work is that it’s sometimes dangerous to drive at night. But you have a choice, and I always choose to work days rather than nights.
M: Then, what is the best part of your job?
W: I soon found that what I liked best about this job was being outdoors, seeing how the city changes from season to season. And there are places I’ve seen that I probably never would have seen in another job. and I love all kinds of weather. I like to leave the window down in a fine rain. And. and when I have a long drive near the end of the day, I sometimes go past my home to tell my two little children I’ll be home soon, and they always want to come along in my car.
M: Oh, do they? I guess all kids like to be taken for a ride sometimes.
W: Yeah, But you cannot take anyone along unless they pay or you pay for them. So I’ll have to pay their fares one of these days and take them out in my taxi, because they really think it’s fun. Out in the countryside on a long drive, with the air fresh and the sun shining, you just seem to want to drive forever. At least, that’s how it is for me.
M: Being a taxi driver, you have to meet all kinds of people. How do you feel about that?
W: I enjoy meeting many different people. I might not have met some if not for this job, and I’ve learned a lot about how people behave in these years.
M: Can you tell us a bit more about it?
W: The biggest advantage is that you come across various characters in your work. Some people are interesting, some rushed, some pleasant, some funny, some talkative. Some are so pressed for time that they change clothes in the taxi. Those who are in the greatest rush would sometimes forget to pay.
M: Have you ever met someone who doesn’t like women drivers?
W: Yes. Once a passenger really objected to having a woman driver. and I laughed at him so much that he stopped his fussing. Although there has been one or two cases like this, I still think most people are nice to women drivers. So, this is really an interesting part of my work.
M: Now, my last question. Have you ever thought of changing your job?
W: Not yet. I might, in a few years’ time. But not at this moment, because I really enjoy my work, and I do get a lot of satisfaction out of it. So, why should I?
M: Ok. our interview is coming to the end. I’d like to wind up our interview by wishing you good luck. Thank you very much for your time, Juliet.
W: Pleasure.

问答题The grammatical words which play so large a part in English grammarare for the most part sharply and obviously different from the lexical words. Arough and ready difference which may seem the most obvious is that grammatical 1．_______words have “less meaning”, but in fact some grammarians have called them 2．_______“empty” words as opposed in the “full” words of vocabulary. But this is a rather 3．_______misled way of expressing the distinction. Although a word like theis not the name 4．_______of something as man is, it is very far away from being meaningless; there is a 5．_______sharp difference in meaning between “man is vile” and “the man is vile”, yet theis the single vehicle of this difference in meaning. Moreover, grammatical words 6．_______differ considerably among themselves as the amount of meaning they have even in th 7．_______lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words has been “little words.”But size is by no mean a good criterion for distinguishing the grammatical words 8．_______of English, when we consider that we have lexical words as go, man, say, car. 9．_______Apart from this, however, there is a good deal of truth in what some people say:we certainly do create a great number of obscurity when we omit them. This 10．_______is illustrated not only in the poetry of Robert Browning but in the prose of tele-grams and newspaper headlines.
