听力原文:W: Snowboarding's so popular now—everyone's doing it. It's taking over from skiing in some resorts. M: Come to think of it, how much are lessons? I presume you can get those here, too. W: You bet. (23) It's 125 dollars a day for one to one instruction, 3 hours in the morning, and 3 in the afternoon. Personally, I'd recommend learning as part of a group, though. It's more fun, and it's quite a bit cheaper. It depends on what you prefer. That's 76 dollars per person, for the same number of hours as individual instruction. M: That's a good deal. Does that include equipment hire? W: Well, since you're our first customer of the season, we might just throw that in. M: Fantastic. We'll definitely see you next week. Oh, one more thing. Is off-peak season still until the end of November? W: Yes, and then for the whole of March. Oh, hang on. No, the seasons have changed a bit. I can't believe I forgot. The centre is closed from the beginning of April to the end of September. Off-peak's from the 1st October until the 10th December, and then peak season is around Christmas and New Year. Post Christmas off-peak season is also the whole of February and March. M: Yeah. (24) So peak season is from the 11th December until...? W: (24) From the 11th December until the 31st January. Lots of school groups in January, even though it's 50% more expensive than off-peak season. M: (25) So we're getting a good deal by turning up at the start of the season. W: Definitely. It's a good idea anyway—word hasn't really got around that everything's up and running, and most people are at work, so you get the slopes pretty much to yourself. Questions:23. How much do snowboarding lessons cost one day? 24.When is the peak season? 25.What is the man probably going to do? (20)
