听力原文：M: I didn't see you in creative writing class today. What happened? W: Oh, just a dentist appointment. That's all. Say, did we get a new assignment for next week? M: Yeah. A really interesting one, actually. We're supposed to write a short story that has some sort of limitation or, constraints imposed on it. W: What do you mean? Like rhyming in a poem? M: Well, that's somewhat the idea. But what we write has to be a prose, as prose poetry. Just to make rhyme in a poem is too easy, I guess. I think Prof. Smith really wants us to challenge ourselves, to put our creativity to the test. W: Well, did she give any hints about what's on her mind'? M: Not really, but I may have an idea, the kind of thing what she's looking for. I just finished a really strange book by some French guy. He wrote a whole book without even using a single letter 'e'. W: A whole book without a single 'e'?. How's that possible? But, wait a minute. I didn't know you can read French. M: I can't. I read the English translation. But get this. There's not one 'e' in that either. W: No way. Think of the words you couldn't use. M: I know, but that translator manages it. I got the book at home if you want to check out for yourself. what's really amazing to me is that leaving a letter 'e' in English is gonna involve a complete different group of words and ends in French W: Sometime you have to show me that book. But right now I better get going the writing for next week. I already have a couple of ideas thanks to you. And I think I just might be able to work on it to something interesting. (20)
