L5 Unit 1-1 Listening
Jessica was 35 years old. She graduated from middle school 20 years ago. This year her
middle
school
class
had
its
20th
year
class
for
reunion.
All
of
her
classmates
and
teachers
were invited to attend. It's to going to be held at the hotel, near where their school used
to be. Like many other buildings, the school had been torn down. It had been replaced by
some of the apartment buildings.
At
first,
she
wasn't
sure
if
she
could
go
to
the
reunion.
One
reason
was
that
there
wasn't
anyone in particular that she wanted
to
see. Another
reason
was that she
was very busy.
She
was a working mother, with a boy 8 years old and her husband who was rarely at home. Going
to the reunion meant that she would have to arrange someone to tak e care of things while
she
was
away.
That
wouldn't
be
easy.
She
didn't
want
to
take
her
boy
with
her
and
her
husband
wouldn't take time off from work.
Then she got a message from Sharon, one of her classmates. Sharon was contacting people
from their class and urging everyone to come. In the school days, she was class monitor,
and now she was helping to organize the reunion. They exchanged the messages and Jessica
said she couldn't make it. Then Sharon gave her a call and they talked for almost an hour.
Sharon really wanted her to come and so did a couple of Jessica's old friends. They were
all wondering how she was
doing.
None of them
have seen or
heard from her
since graduation.
They were especially curious since she hadn't gone to their first reunion 10 years before.
Jessica decided to arrange things so that she could go. Her husband finally agreed to
take
care
of
things
while
she
was
away.
He
agreed
to
do
it
because
her
mother
had
offered
to come and stay for a while so Jessica could attend the reunion. Since he and her mother
didn't get along, he decided to change his schedule and work from home for a few days. He
really didn't want her mother to come though he didn't say so. When she got to the reunion,
she
was
shocked.
Everyone
had
aged
so
much
and
many
of
them
were
out
of
shape.
Some
who
used
to be good-looking had lost their looks completely and others look much better and before.
It
was
strange
how
time
had
changed
people
in
such
different
ways.
Anyway,
she
decided
that
since she was there, she would try to enjoy it.

丈夫很少在家。
去参加聚会就意味着她要在不在的时候安排人去照顾。
那可 不容易。
她不想带着她的儿子，她的丈夫也不会请假。然后她收到了她的同学莎朗的留言。莎伦正在联系 班上的同学，并敦
促大家都来。在学校的时候，她是班长，现在她帮助组织同学聚会。他们交换了消息， 杰西卡说她没能赶到。然后
莎朗给她打了个电话，他们谈了将近一个小时。莎朗真的很想让她来，杰西卡 的几个老朋友也是。他们都在想她过

L5 Unit 1-2 Listening
Jessica's 20-year class reunion was held at a fancy hotel. When she arrived, she wasn't
sure
she
was
in
the
right
place.
At
first,
she
didn't
recognize
anyone.
She
felt
a
bit
awkward
and out of place. But it wasn’t before a strange man came up to her. He was already losing
his hear and he was wearing thick glasses(
深度眼镜). Don’t you remember me He asked. When
he said who he was, she barely remembered him, especially he has changed so much. Then he
told
her
that
he
had
always
had
crush
on
her.
He
said
she
looked
beautiful
and
he
immediately
took
a
selfie
of
them,
with
his
arm
tight
around
her
waist.
This
made
her
felt
a
bit
strange.
She smiled at him and pretended to be happy to see him. But in fact, she was sure how to
react, thought he seemed nice. She finally excused herself and went to the ladies' room.
She was beginning to regret to having come to the reunion. She had always been shy and she
still was. When she returned to the party, Sharon invited her to sit at her table. Dinner
was going to be served soon and some of the classmates were going to give speeches. Sharon
next was also got to say a few words too because people were curious. This was a surprise.
Jessica had never been very popular and she didn't think anyone had noticed her. She had
always felt like an outsider, with only a couple of close friends. Still, she had been one
of the best students and people remembered her. As the evening wore on, Jessica began to
really enjoy herself. She told to her old friends and was amazed by how some others had
changed.
For example, Tom used to be good looking and athletic. He was one of the most popular
students, and star basketball player. His one problem was math. He had had
hard time in math especially in geometric. This is because he wasn't a logical thinker.
Except
for
basketball,
he
didn't
want
to
d
o
anything,
unless
it
was
easy.
Tom
was
no
longer
good
looking.
His
nose
which
had
always
been
large,
had
grown
even
larger.
He
had
also
gained
a
lot
of
weight.
His
wife
had
left
him
so
for
the
first
time
and
ever,
he
was
lone.
He
looked
lonely and depressed, not at all like he used to be.

Steve was a nobody in middle school. People hardly noticed him. He was small, quiet and
a bit ugly with crooked teeth. What he was good at was English. His English was even better
than
their
teachers.
After
graduating,
he
went
to
low
rent
university
and
eventually
dropped
out.
For
a
while,
he
worked
as
a
tour
guide.
Then,
10
years
ago,
he
and
some
friends
started
a little company which is now a great success. In fact, he had
become a rich, generous man.
He
had
a
nice
warm
smile
and
his
success
hadn’t
gone

It
was
a

to be around him.
Betty used to be the most beautiful girl in school. She wasn't very smart but she was
a
great
singer.
She
made
a
video
of
her
singing
and
it
went

She
became
famous

but
it
only
lasted
for
about
2
years.
After
that,
her
fans

She
tried
to become an actress, but she failed. She has been too stiff and nervous in front of the
camera.
Betty
has
a
nice
husband
who
seems
to
adopt
her.
The
one
tragedy
in
her
life
happened
about 5 years ago when she lost her daughter to a rare form of cancer. Because of that, her
hair had begun to turn grey. Jessica couldn't help but feel sorry for her. Betty had had
such high hope in tremendous energy as a girl, but things didn't work out.
And then there was John. John used to be the school bully. He had been big, strong
and mean. He hadn't been nice to anybody. It seemed that he was always angry and ready
to hit someone. After graduating, he joined the army and went overseas to fight to a war.
His

people

he

Then
one
day,
he
was

a leg and was hospitalized
for
nearly a year.
Now he had
completely changed. He
had gentle,

people.
From
Jessica's
point

In the end, Jessica was glad she went to her reunion. It was interesting to see how people
