听力原文:M: You must be pretty excited about your trip to Europe. When is it that you're leaving? W: In just three weeks and I am excited, but there are still a few things I need to do before I go. M: Like what? W: Like renewing my passport, going to the travel agency to buy my plane ticket and figuring out what to do with my apartment while I am gone. M: You're not going to give it up, are you? W: No way, I'll never find another apartment around here. But I don't like the idea of paying three months, rent on an empty apartment, either. M: I don't blame you. Perhaps you could sublet it. W: Yes. But who to? M: Hum, let me think. Oh, I know just the person, an old colleague of mine, Michael Lee is coming here to do some research this summer from June through August. W: Well, that's exactly when I'll be away. It sounds ideal, as long as the landlord agrees. M: Tell you what. I'll be calling Michael later this week anyway, so I'll mention it to him then. W: Well, thanks, Bill. Let me know what happens. That extra money would really come in handy. (26)
