听力原文：M: Hello.

W: Hello, Dad？

M: Yes…Mary! How are you？ Is there anything wrong？

W: Oh, no. I’m just calling to see how you and Mom are. It’s been quite a while since I saw you last.

M: Oh, we’re both fine. Your mother is down at the new shopping center, shopping.

W: For a new dress？

M: No, for shoes this time. How’s Tom？

W: He’s fine. He likes this work and was given a raise last month by Mr. Davis. We were all pretty pleased about that.

M: Yes, and I think you should be. And how are the children？

W: Well, Billy’s home from school today. It’s nothing serious, just a bad cold. And it’s his birthday, too.

M: Oh, I thought his birthday was May 24th.

W: No, the 23rd.

M: Well. That’s too bad. Tell him we sent him a present.

W: All right. Sally’s still taking dancing lessons.

M: She must be pretty good by now. I’d like to see her sometime. And how’s Ted？

W: He’s OK. He loves working on cars and has a part-time job at the garage now.

M: Well, it’s certainly good to hear your voice. When are you coming for a visit？

W: Not for a few months, I’m afraid. But I hope we can come for a few weeks this summer, probably in July.

M: That should be nice. Call again soon.

W: OK, Dad. Nice talking to you and glad everything’s all right.
