听力原文：M: Betty, you speak several languages, don't you? W: Yes, I speak Spanish and French. M: And what helped you most in learning those languages? W: What helped me most... Well, I studied both languages in high school, and I'm still studying Spanish here at the university, but I think that travel has probably been the most help to me. You see, I've been lucky in that I've lived in Europe. Believe me, I didn't speak very well before I moved there. M: You're right, Betly. After studying a language, practice is very useful. When you live in a country where the language is spoken, it's ideal. But, you know, some times it's difficult to make friends in a new place, even when the people are very friendly. W: Yes, I know what you mean. Especially if you don't speak my language too well. I bad some problems when I first moved to Europe. M: And, of course, some people are shy. W: That's true. M: Betty, whether or not I'm living in a country where the language is spoken, I always go to movies, and whenever I can, I watch TV or listen to the radio in the language I'm trying to learn. W: Me too. And reading is another good way to learn. Books axe good, but I think that newspapers and magazines are even better. M: So do I But I don't believe that it's possible to take advantage of practice opportunities without some knowledge of the language first. W: Sine. First it's a good idea to study grammar, vocabulary. M: ... and listening, perhaps even reading. W: Then practice is very, very, helpful. (20)
