Listening & Speaking

Unit 6:

Listening Task

Dialogue 1:

A: Hey, Andrew! You’re back from Australia. B: Yeah, just got back yesterday.

A: Well, g’day, mate! How did you like my homeland?

B: Oh, man, it was great! The people were so friendly. The weather was great. And some of the Australian slang you taught me really came in handy.

A: Oh, yeah. I bet you picked up some more while you were there.

B: Yep. Mm, lemme see. I know “mozzies” are “mosquitoes,” and “tucker” means “food.” And, of course, Australian English is called “Strine.”

A: Not bad, mate! A few more trips down under and you’ll be an expert in Strine!

Dialogue 2:

A: So, how did you like Professor Lee’s class?

B: Man, I don’t know.

A: What do you mean? B: I mean, it’s hard to pick up what she’s

saying. Her English is so hard to

understand.

A: You think so?

B: Yeah. She has a strong accent, you

know.

A: Well, yeah, but everyone has an accent.

Even you have an accent! Hers is just

different from yours, that’s all.

B: Sure is.

A: Don’t worry about it, though. You’ll get

used to how she talks.

B: Maybe, but I’m having a really hard time

understanding her right now.

A: Well, maybe you should just pay

attention to what she writes on the board.

She writes on the board a lot. I think she

knows that some people need to get used

to her.

Dialogue 3:

A: OK. Places everyone! “Gone with the

Wind,” scene 25, take 2. And action!

B: Rhett, I only know that I love …

A: Cut! Cut! Cut! Julia, you’ve got to work

on your southern accent. You just don’t

sound like Scarlet.

B: I know, I know. I’m just not getting it for

some

reason.

A: OK. It’s not that hard. Now, listen. In the

southern dialect of American English, the

pronoun “I” sounds like “Ah.” I love you,

Rhett.

B: OK. Lemme try this again. Aaaah. I only

know that I love you.

A: Better. Now another thing. “R” sounds at

the end of words are often dropped. So, for

example, you say “suga’,” not “sugar.”

B: OK. Don’t botha me anymo’. And don’t

call me suga’!

A: Much better! All right, places everyone!

We’re going to try thi s again. Lights,

camera, action!

Real World Listening

Part 1

Jennifer: Tell me how your background and

experience have prepared you to be a

manager in our travel company.

Sumi: Well, as my resume shows, I have a

bachelor’s degree in travel industry

management from an American university, and I worked for five years in one of the top travel companies in Japan. After two years I was promoted to a management position that was very similar to the job you are offering here.

Jennifer: I see. So you have supervised people in your previous position?

Sumi: Yes. Actually, I supervised a staff of about twenty people.

Part 2

Sumi: Hello?

Jennifer: I’m calling for Sumi Wilson. Sumi: This is Sumi.

Jennifer: Hi! This is Jennifer Bates of World Trek travel agency. I’m calling with what I hope will be good news.

Sumi: Yes?

Jennifer: We’d like to offer you a position as a customer service representative.

Sumi: Sorry, but did you just say customer service? I was applying for the management position.

Jennifer: Yes, I know. Actually, we’ve hired someone else for the management position, but we really liked you, so we’d like to hire

you in customer service.

Sumi: I see. Well, since I was hoping to get

the management position, I think I’ll need to

think about this. Could I call you back

tomorrow?

Part 3

Rick: Hello?

Sumi: It’s me. World Trek called.

Rick: So, did you get the job?

Sumi: No, but they offered me a job as a

customer service representative, selling

and leading tours to various places in Asia.

Rick: That’s not fair! You were perfect for

the management job!

Sumi: That’s what I thought, too. But I

honestly think they were worried about my

English. I’m sure they want a native speaker

to be the manager.

Rick: But that’s ridiculous! Your English is

great. Yo u know, if that’s their attitude, I’m

glad you’re not going to be working there.

Sumi: Actually, I’ve been thinking about it a

lot, and I really want to accept the job as a

customer service rep.

Rick: What? Why?

Sumi: Well, it’s a good chance to show

them how much I know, what I can do. And

they can see for themselves how good my

English is, too! Then, whenever the next

management position comes up, they’ll

know I’m the perfect choice!

Rick: Well, in that case, go for it! And let’s

go out for dinner tonight to celebrate!

Unit 7:

Listening Task

1.

Hi! I’m Michael. I’m a 32-year-old white male.

I’m divorced, and I want to try again with

the right lady. I like rock music, dancing,

and surfing. I’m looking for an attractive

woman who likes to party as much as I do.

Surfing experience is a plus, but not

necessary. If you’re willing to learn, I’m

willing to teach you!

2.

I’m Anita and I’m a 34-year-old

African-American woman. I’m single and I

work for a major corporation. I’m also very

involved with the environmental

organization Greenpeace, so respect for nature is a must. I’m looking for a single professional man, 35 to 40, who already has his own life but wants to share quality time. He has to be honest above all else.

3.

Hi, my name is Jack. I’m a sens itive 28-year-old guy. I’m ready for someone who wants a lifetime of commitment. I’m into bodybuilding, movies, and golf. I have a great job with a good income, so you don’t have to be rich, just fun to be with. But I’m hopeless in the kitchen, so you have to be able to cook. Let’s get to know each other and enjoy life together!

Real World Listening

Part 1:

Amy: I know I have a picture of Luis around here somewhere. Oh, here it is.

Becky: Wow, he’s so handsome! He looks like a Greek statue.

Amy: Yeah, h e is very attractive. But I didn’t think so when I first met him.

Becky: You didn’t?

Amy: No. You know what I noticed when I first met him? He has really hairy hands.

Becky: What?

Amy: Yeah. His hands are just really hairy.

Plus, his clothes were way more

fashionable than I usually like. He just

wasn’t my type. And on top of all that, he

was shorter than me.

Becky: So how come you went out with

him?

Amy: Well, he was just really sweet and

funny, and I was so comfortable just

hanging out with him. And the first time we

went out he just swept me away with his

personality.

Becky: Really? How?

Amy: He was just really easy to talk to.

Becky: But still, if all those things bothered

you, about his hands and all.

Amy: Well, you know, none of that was

important once I got to know him more. His

personality and the way we got along just

made it clear to me that he is “the one.”

Becky: So, when’s the big day?

Part 2:

Bob: Luis, I’m so happy for you and Amy.

Luis: Thanks. She’s a great girl. And she’s

perfect for me. We just “click,” you know?

Bob: So then I guess you just always knew

she was the person for you?

Luis: Well, not exactly.

Bob: It wasn’t love at first sight?

Luis: No. But don’t tell Amy that. She’s such

a romantic. She’d probably like it if I said I

fell for her immediately

Bob: But you didn’t?

Luis: No. It took me a while to warm up to

Amy. She just wasn’t my type.

Bob: Really? Why? Didn’t you think she

was attractive?

Luis: Well, she was so thin and athletic. I

usually like a girl with a few curves.

Bob: Then what made you decide to ask her

out?

Luis: I didn’t. She asked me out!

Bob: She did? And how did you feel about

that?

Luis: I wasn’t sure at first. But you know, I

ended up really liking that part of her

personality. She’s independent and she

goes after what she wants. And once I

started looking at her more, I really liked her

physically.

Bob: Well, you two sure make a great couple!

Unit 8:

Listening Task:

Dialogue 1:

A: You wouldn’t believe what happened to me.

B: What?

A: Well, I got my credit card bill yesterday, and I was looking it over, and there were all these charges for things I didn’t buy. There was a fur coat from some expensive website, and, like, fifty phone calls to Paris. B: Oh, no. Did someone steal your credit card?

A: No, I still have the card, but someone must have gotten the number. Sometimes that’s all you need to buy something over the phone or on the Internet.

B: Wow, that’s scary.

A: Yeah, but I called the credit card company. They have identity theft insurance, so they’re goin g to give me a new card, a new number, and I don’t have to pay for any of that stuff.

Dialogue 2:

A: How’s that new computer working out,

man?

B: Well, hard to say. It’s definitely a cool

machine, top of the line. It’s got way more

memory than my old comp uter, and it’s way

faster. The thing is, none of my old software

works with it.

A: Really?

B: Yeah, it’s a new operating system, so

nothing is compatible.

A: Wow.

B: So now I have to buy all the upgrades for

all my programs, all the new versions of

everything.

A: That’s gonna be expensive.

B: Yep. It’s really lame.

Dialogue 3:

A: Hey, did you get the e-mail I sent you

today?

B: I think so. It was one of those joke

forwards, right? One of the kind that are

supposed to be funny.

A: Yeah, it was a picture of an elephant

playing baseball. Man, that was hilarious.

B: Yeah, um, actually, I kind of wish you

wouldn’t send me all those forwards. I end

up just deleting them anyhow.

A: Oh, OK. I didn’t realize.

B: Sorry, but it’s just that I get, like, fifty

forwards a day, from you, my mom, my

sisters, my coworkers. My inbox is always

so clogged up with forwards that

sometimes I don’t even get to read my real

e-mails, important e-mails, you know.

Dialogue 4:

A: John, you’ve been playing that video

game for hours.

B: I know, I know. It’s just that I have to get

to level five before I can take a break.

A: Well, you’ve been playing nonstop every

day like this for the past week.

B: Yeah. This game is really addictive. But I

promise I’ll stop just as soon as I get into

the secret room.

A: The secret room?

B: Yeah, but first I’ve got to get a hold of the

golden key.

A: John, just listen to yourself! I think this game is messing with your head.

Real World Listening

Greg: Hello, this is “Tech Trek,” and I’m your host, Greg Mc Fee. Today we’re going to review three new video games that everyone’s talking about. First, there’s “The Butcher.” The player is an undercover cop who used to be a butcher. Imagine that. Super violent, super fast game.

Greg: Hello, this is “Tech Trek,” and I’m your host, Greg McFee. Today we’re going to review three new video games that everyone’s talking about. First, there’s “The Butcher.” The player is an undercover cop who used to be a butcher. Imagine that. Super violent, super fast game.

Jeff: My pleasure, Greg.

Greg: So, Jeff. “The Butcher.” A lot of people are talking about your game, and most of them are saying it might be too violent.

Jeff: Well, it is violent. I mean, it’s about a cop, who was once a butcher, who hunts down criminals. A lot of people think that video games like “The Butcher” actually

cause violence, that they’re a bad influence

on children.

Jeff: Yeah, I hear that a lot. But I don’t know.

To me, video games are just entertainment.

I think people can tell the difference

between a video game and real life.

Greg: Even kids?

Jeff: Even kids. I don’t think anyone is

going to play “The Butcher” and then go

out and make criminals into hamburger.

You’re not going to become more violent if

you play “The Butcher.”

Greg: Maybe so, but …

Jeff: In fact, I was reading the newspaper,

and there are some scientists who think

that playing violent video games can

actually make you less violent.

Greg: Hmm. That’s interesting.

Jeff: Yeah, they say that if you get all your

anger and frustration out in a video game,

you’ll be a lot more relaxed in your regular

life.

Greg: So if you were a really angry person,

it might be a good idea to play “The

Butcher,” right? You could hack up

criminals for an hour, and then go on with

the rest of your day in a peaceful, happy

mood.

Jeff: Exactly. Playing a video game might be

better than meditating or seeing a

psychiatrist, or anything like that.

Greg: Anyway, thanks for joining us on

“Tech Trek,” Jeff.

Jeff: Any time.

Unit 9:

Listening Task

Dialogue 1:

A: Hi, little sister. How’s your first week

away at school?

B: Well, I have to say that dormitory living

has some major negatives.

A: Like what? You don’t have a curfew, do

you?

B: No, and that’s the one thing I do like. But

it’s kind of disgusting to hav e to share a

bathroom and showers with thirty other

people. And some of my neighbors party on

school nights. The other night, I had my

first exam, and I was trying to get a good

night’s sleep, but it was impossible, they

were so noisy.

A: Yeah, that sure sounds like dorm life! That’s why I moved out my sophomore year.

B: I think I will, too.

Dialogue 2:

A: My parents can be so annoying. They don’t give me any space. Last night my mom barged into my room while I was on the Internet and wanted to see what I was doing.

B: Wow! That’s so different from my mom. She always respects my privacy. She always knocks before she comes into my room.

A: Wow. My mom and my dad are always snooping around my room, trying to figure out what I’m doing, and they look through my cell phone bill to see who I’m calling. My mom even called one of the phone numbers she found!

B: Oh, my mom never does that. If she wants to know who my friends are, she just asks me.

A: Man, you’re lucky. You’ve got it good. Got a spare bedroom for me?

Dialogue 3:

A: Anthony! Kim! How are you two

lovebirds? Have

you adjusted to married life yet?

B: Well, we’re still working on it!

C: Yeah, right. We’re working on it.

A: I guess it takes a while to get used to

each other’s habits, huh?

C: Yeah, well, you know, I’m a bit of a neat

freak.

A: Yeah, I know.

C: And Anthony, well, let’s just say he’s a

little on the messy side.

B: Yeah, different styles, I guess. And then

there’s the little problem of sleeping at

night. She talks in her sleep.

C: Or so he says.

B: It’s true. You do!

C: And he snores! Between the two of us,

we can’t seem to get much rest.

A: Looks like you two still have a lot to get

used to.

Dialogue 4:

A: Harry, have you been using my iPod

again?

B: Alice! Don’t get so uptight.

A: And my new headphones, too? You

creep!

B: Well, OK, I was going to put them back.

Anyway, what’s the big deal?

A: The big deal is that it is so disrespectful

to take things without asking.

B: Well, how about you? You’re always

borrowing my sweaters, and jerseys, and

stuff.

A: Yeah, well, that’s different.

B: I don’t think so.

Real World Listening

Kara: Steve, remember the older couple

that I rent my apartment from?

Steve: Yeah?

Kara: Well, the woman has been coming up

to see how I’m doing. At first, I was really

appreciative, you know. It’s nice to feel that

people are concerned when you live alone.

Steve: Yeah, it’s nice.

Kara: Now, though, she comes every day,

sometimes more than once! She always

brings me homemade soup.

Steve: Homemade soup! That’s so great! I wish someone cooked fro me.

Kara: Well, sure, having some home-cooked food is a treat, but she sits and watches me to make sure I eat it! Last time, I had just eaten dinner when she came over and insisted that I finish a whole bowl! She wouldn’t leave until I did!

Steve: Oh, c’mon. You could have it much worse.

Kara: And every time I go out she leans out the door to ask where I’m going. It’s like I’m 17 again!

Steve: Would you rather have loud neighbors who kept you up all night? Kara: Well, it’s not only her. It’s the old man, too. He’s such a flirt, and I’ve always thought it was cute. You know, an old man, 80 years old, still flirting.

Steve: Uh huh.

Kara: So, today when I got home, he came up to me , gave me a hug.

Steve: Yeah, so what?

Kara: And then, he kissed me on the cheek! Steve: Oh, no. Well, maybe you remind him of his grand-daughter.

Kara: Well, yeah, but do n’t you think it’s

kind of weird for him to kiss me?

Unit 10:

Listening Task

1.

Yeah, I had an experience in a disaster once.

It was a real life-changing experience. I was

in the Alaska Range climbing Mount

Foraker with a couple of friends. Near the

end of our trip, a storm moved in. The

mountain just went crazy! It was

unbelievable. The rocks and snow started

falling, and we were knocked 800 feet down

the side of the mountain. I don’t know what

happened after that because I passed out.

Six hours later, I woke up. My shoulder was

broken, and I was separated from my

friends and was just in a kind of daze. It

took me three days to get to the bottom of

the mountain. I had to keep my eyes open

and just ignore the pain. But I finally made it

to safety.

2.

Once, I really thought it was all over for me.

It was a Sunday morning, May eighteenth to

be exact. I was camping with Marty, a friend,

and we were about fifteen miles north of Mt.

St. Helens, and we were packing up our tent

when boom, when it erupted. Within minutes, nearly every tree around us had been ripped out of the ground. I was blown into a deep hole left by one of the trees.

I pulled myself out of the hole, but then ice chunks started falling from the sky! Marty had been hurt pretty badly by a falling tree, so I had to get help. I made him a little shelter and then walked the rest of the day to find help. It was really painful because I was knee-deep in ashes almost the whole way. That night, an emergency helicopter finally saw me. I was never so thankful in my life.

3.

I’ll never forget the big earthquake in Turkey. It was the middle of the night, and I was sleeping, when I felt a sharp jolt. I sat up in bed like a bolt of lightning. The next thing I knew, I had fallen through the floor into a hole and things were hitting my head and body. It wasn’t long before I realized that the building had collapsed, on top of me.

Real World Listening

I opened my eyes and looked down. Black filthy water covered the lower half of my

body. I couldn’t even see my legs. My arms,

bare, scratched, bleeding, and aching, were

wrapped around a palm tree. I was holding

on, leaning against the trunk. Black,

oil-slicked, muddied water choked with

debris was everywhere. I looked up. I

looked up. The sky was blue, clear,

untroubled. The sun was shining. Where

was I? Where was Simon? What had

happened? I remembered.

Simon and I were in the bungalow when a

rush of water rose up so suddenly there

was not even a second to think, a rush of

water that came from all directions, hurtling

us out into the furious current. For one split

second, before the water separated us, I

saw Simon’s face. “Petra!” he sc reamed.

“Petra! What’s happening?” I couldn’t

answer. I didn’t know. Then I lost sight of

him. Seconds later, I saw him again,

whirling in the tumbling waters. He was a

few yards ahead of me. Behind him a

rooftop was sticking out of the water.

“Catch the roof! Catch the roof!” I shouted.

Then he was gone. I don’t know whether he

heard me or not.

I prayed that he would catch hold. I was

sure he would. He was a strong swimmer.

He had to be OK. It was impossible to tell in

which direction the waters were streaming.

I needed to grab onto something or be

swept away. I saw another rooftop. I

reached out my arms, and sending out

every bit of energy I had, I grabbed the

edges and held on. Instantly, my legs were

sucked underneath, and everything

accumulated by the raging water, the wood

and metal objects, all the trash, began

slamming against my hips and legs.

For the first time, I thought of dying.

Miraculously, the pressure of the water

began to lessen. I pulled myself up onto the

roof. My clothes had been torn from my

body. I was naked. Then, as quickly as the

first, another tremendous wave rose up and

poured over the rooftop. I lost my grip and

was drawn down beneath the water. I hung

on, screaming with pain and fear. I would be

crushed into nothing. Frantically, I flailed

my arms, trying to get out from under the

thick layer of filth between me and the

surface.

Desperately, I fought to get some air until I had no breath left. I stopped fighting, stopped struggling, and began swallowing the inky water. A great feeling of peacefulness came over me. I surrendered to the calmness. Whatever was meant to be, whatever God will decide, it’s OK. At that moment, without any effort on my part, I was thrust through the barrier of debris to the surface. I threw my head back and gasped for air. Above me was the blue, blue sky. I was never so happy in my life to see the sky.

Unit 6-Conversation 1 Janet: What are you reading, Kate Kate:Alice in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. Do you know it Janet: I've heard of it, yes, but I've never read it. It's a 19th century children's story, isn't it K a te: That's right. It's very famous. It's set in Oxford. It starts with this young girl sitting on a river bank. The interesting thing is, the author, Lewis Carroll, he was an Oxford professor and he used to have tea with the girl's family on this river bank. Ja net: Oh, that's fascinating! I'll put it into my diary. Kate: Is that what you're writing I know you've been keeping a diary all the year. Janet: It's been a great year. I've had such a good time — so lucky to have Mark and Kate as friends. Feel I've been doing well with work. Much happier about asking questions in tutorials. Janet: My screen's gone dark. Mark: You're using the battery, remember. It's run out, obviously. Janet: It can't be the battery. It's still charged. Oh no it's still black. Oh dear, I hope it's nothing serious. I haven't backed anything up recently. Kate: That's not like you, Janet. Janet:I know, but I lost my memory stick. I really should have backed things up. How stupid of me not to do that! Supposing I've lost everything! Mark: Let me take a look. The power is still on. And also the operating system still seems to be working ... I think it has to be the graphics card ... But maybe that's not the problem ... Janet: If only I'd backed things up! Kate: Relax, Janet! We'll take it to the computer shop this afternoon. I'm sure it'll be OK. Janet: I hope so. Unit 6-Conversation 2 Janet: Tell me about Alice in Wonderland. Kate: I tell you what, I'll read it to you. Kate: Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank and having nothing to do: Once or twice, she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversation" So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid) ... Janet: Kate, Mark, where are you going You've got my laptop! Kate: It's all right, Janet, we're taking it to the computer shop. We'll be back soon.

They drive trains, analyze evidence and control buildings. Did you know that 60 per cent of homes in Britain have got a PC (a personal computer) For many young people, playing computer games is their favorite way of spending spare time. Computers are a very important part of most areas of life in Britain-libraries, the police and in school. But they are becoming more important in our homes as well. They’ll even control the way we live-in “smart homes” or computer-controlled houses. The smart home is now a real possibility. It will become very common. A central computer will adjust the temperature, act as a burglar alarm and switch on lights, ready for you to come back home. And of course you will be able to give new instructions to the computer from your mobile phone. So if your plans change, your home will react to match. Many homes have got lots of televisions and several computers. The smart home will provide TV and Internet sockets in every room, so you’ll be able to do what you want whenever you want. If the temperature outside changes, the smart home will adjust the temperature levels inside. The computer will also close the blinds when it gets dark or to stop so much sun from entering a room. And if you want to eat when you get home, the computer will turn the oven on for you! Are computers taking over our lives In a survey, 44 per cent of young people between 11 and 16 said their PC was a trusted friend. Twenty per cent said they were happier at their computer than spending time with family or friends. Another survey found that people in Britain spend so much time on the phone, texting and reading emails that they no longer have time for conversation. What do you think about that Unit 6-Listening in

Unit12 Hey, Tony! What's up? Hey, Rob. Check this out. I got a package from my Mom. Oh, yes! Cookies, I hope. Nah, it's a cookbook. Twenty-Minute Meals. It's perfect for us, don't you think? Yeah, I guess. But I wish she would've sent you cookies instead. Think about it, though. No more instant ramen, no more fast-food burgers Twenty minutes in the kitchen, and voila! We have a well-balanced meal. Are you in? Whatever you say, Chef Tony. Let's have a look. How about this? Super Nachos. Now that's my kind of food. All right! Let's get started. What do we need? What we really need is for you to find a girlfriend who can cook. Yeah, right. And then you'll find one, too, and they can take turns cooking for us. So what are the ingredients? Hmm... Chips, salsa, can of chili, and shredded cheese. That sounds easy enough. Well, we've got half a bag of nacho chips. Think that's enough? It'll have to be. Let's see what's in the fridge. We've got lots of soda... Half a submarine sandwich... Cheese! We've got that... Oh, it's kind of moldy, though. Kind of? It's green! Do we have any chili? Sorry, man, I think I ate it the other night. That wasn't yours.

全新版大学英语第二版听说教程第三册听力原文及答案 Unit 1 Text 1 Dating with My Mother (Part One) After 22 years of marriage, I have discovered the secret to keep love alive in my relationship with my wife, Peggy. I started dating with another woman. It was Peggy's idea. One day she said to me, 'Life is too short, you need to spend time with the people you love. You probably won't believe me, but I know you love her and I think that if the two of you spend more time together, it will make us closer.' The 'other' woman my wife was encouraging me to date is my mother, a 72-year-old widow who has lived alone since my father died 20 years ago. Right after his death, I moved 2,500 miles away to California and started my own life and career. When I moved back near my hometown six years ago, I promised myself that I would spend more time with mom. But with the demands of my job and three kids, I never got around to seeing her much beyond family get-togethers and holidays. Mom was surprised and suspicious when I called and suggested the two of us go out to dinner and a movie. 'What's wrong?' she asked. 'I thought it would be nice to spend some time with you,' I said. 'Just the two of us.' 'I would like that a lot,' she said. When I pulled into her driveway, she was waiting by the door with her coat on. Her hair was curled, and she was smiling. 'I told my lady friends I was going out with my son, and they were all impressed. They can't wait to hear about our evening,' Mother said. Exercise 1: 1. c 2. a 3.b Questions: 1. What would make the speaker closer to his wife, Peggy? 2. What do you know about the speaker's mother? 3. Which of the following adjectives best describes Peggy? Exercise 2: 1. She suggested that her husband spend more time with his mother. She said to her husband, "Life is too short, but you need to spend time with the people you love. You probably won't believe me, but I know you love her and I think that if the two of you spend more time together , it will make us closer." 2. 1) ...she was waiting by the door with her coat on and she had her hair curled. 2) She had told her lady friends about this. Text 2 Dating with My Mother (Part Two) We didn't go anywhere fancy, just a neighborhood place where we could talk. Since her eyes now see only large shapes and shadows, I had to read the menu for both of us. 'I used to be the reader when you were little,' she said.
