听力原文：W: Hello, John. You must be pleased. After all how many students are lucky enough to have been accepted at their first and their second choices? M: Not many I know. But I'm not sure yet which one to choose. W: Well, you seem to have doubts about the state university. But its economics department has a fine reputation. What more could a economics major want? M: Yeah. And they also have internships for seniors. But a friend told me that for the first two years some lectures have a hundred and fifty students. You probably wouldn't get to know any of your teachers. W: Well, you might actually. Because those classes also have small discussion sections. Twice a week, and have no more than twenty students. M: I know. But I've heard that they are usually taught by graduate students. At White Stone College all classes are taught by professors. W: Do you prefer a small town like White Stone? Or a bigger place like the state capital? M: That doesn't matter to me. What I do care about is getting individual attention from the faculty than making friends. W: Look, I've known you for four years now and you seem to be a pretty outgoing person. I don't think you have any trouble making friends at the state university. It sounds to me that you are leaning toward White Stone though? M: I am. The only problem is that the White Stone's tuition is really high and I'm not sure I can afford it. W: You could still apply for a student loan or sign up for a work-study program. M: Yeah. I think I'U look into that. (23)
