听力原文:W: Is it that you've never met the right woman? Is that it? M: I don't know. Several times I have met a woman who seemed right, as you say. But for some reason it's never worked out. W: Well, could you perhaps describe what happened with one of these women? M: Uh...yes, there was Cynthia, for example. W: And what kind of woman was she? M: Intelligent. Beautiful. She came from the right social background, as well. I felt I really loved her. But then something happened. W: What? M: I found out that she was still seeing an old boyfriend of hers. W: Why did you feel that... M: She had told me that her relationship was all over, which was a lie. W: It was because she had lied to you that you decided to break off the relationship? M: Yes, when I found out that she had lied to me, I simply couldn't trust her any more. And that meant that we couldn't possibly get married. W: At least, I think I do. But...you said there were several women who seemed 'right.' M: Yes. W: what happened the other times? M: Well, once I met someone who I think I loved very deeply but...unfortunately she didn't share my religious views. W. Your religious views? M: Yes, I expect the woman I finally marry to agree with me on such...such basic things as that. W: I see. What's her name? M: Sarah. W: Do you think you'll ever meet someone who meets all your requirements? M: I don't know. How can I? But I do feel it's important net to...not to just drift into...a relationship, simply because I might be lonely. W: Are you lonely? M: Sometimes. But I know that I can live alone, if necessary. And I think I would far prefer to do that.., to live alone.., rather than to marry somebody who isn't really what I'm looking for. (20)
