听力题 M: Hi, Janet, you are so lucky to be done with your final exams and term papers. I still have two more finals to take. W: Really? M: Yeah, so what are you doing this summer, anything special? W: Well, actually yeah. My parents have always liked taking my sister and me to different places in the United States. You know, places with historical significance. I guess they wanted to reinforce the stuff we learned in school about history. And so even though we are older now, they still do once in a while. M: Oh so where are you going this summer? W: Well, this summer it’s finally going to be Gettysburg. M: Finally? You mean they never took you yet? I mean Gettysburg, it’s probably the most famous civil war site in the country. It’s only a couple of hours away. I think that would be one of the first places that they’ve taken you. I have been there a couple of times. W: We were gonna to go about ten, well, no, it was exactly ten years ago, but I don’t know something happened. I cannot remember what. M: Something changed your plans? W: Yeah, don’t ask me what it was, but we ended up not going anywhere that year. I hope that doesn’t happen again this year. I wrote a paper about Gettysburg last semester for a history class I was taking, well about the political situation in the United States right after the battle at Gettysburg. So I’m eager to see the place.
