Task 1: David Copperfield is coming.
新视野大学英语视听说教程第四册答案
W: My brother is going to pick up some tickers for the David Copperfield show.
You interested in coming with us?
M: I don t know. I ve been card tricks before, and rabbits from hats. I even do
tricks myself—watch me change this coin into an ice cream cone.
W: Very funny. David Copperfield is the world s greatest magician; he s
certainly worth a look.
M: Actually, I have seen him on television. He pulls off some pretty amazing
stunts. I wish I knew how he performed his tricks. Then I could also make a person float in the air. I could pull a rabbit out of my hat. I could escape from a straitjacket and handcuffs—all underwater. And I could saw a woman in half.
W: A magician never tells his secrets. David attempts the impossible and no
one has any idea how he does it. I saw him on TV when he walked through the Great Wall of China.
M: How could he do that?
W: I have no idea, but I know what I saw: He entered a canvas shelter on one
side of the wall, and he came out of a canvas shelter on the other side.
M: yes, bur was he always in full view of the camera, or did they cut to a
commercial or something else?
W: Not only was the camera running all the time, but he was hooked up a heart
monitor, and you could track his progress as he moved through the wall.
M: It s difficult to know what to believe. I know it s not possible for him to do
that, but…
W: It sounds to me like it s a show worth watching.
M: Count me in. Instead of an ice cream cone, I ll turn my money into a ticket.
