听力原文：W: Do you like the dress? M: I love it. W: I designed it myself. M: It's beautiful. W: Are you ready? We're supposed to be there before the guests arrive. M: I know. I know. Help me with this tie, will you? Honey, I'm scared to death. W: But this is what you've been working for all these years, you really deserve it. M: No, no. I worked to put together a book of photographs. This is show business. W: Well, it's all part of the same job. Just relax and enjoy it. M: You're right. I earned this, and I'm going to enjoy it. Just a minute, as soon as I recover from my nervous breakdown. W: What are you afraid of? M: Everything. A critic was there this morning. He probably hates my work. I have to sign copies of my book for a lot of people I never met before. Oh, my new shoes hurt my feet... W: You're going to be a great success. Are you ready? M: As soon as I get these buttons on. W: Let me help. Morn and Dad are already on their way down to the gallery. There! You look very attractive. M: Thank you. Well, I suppose I've run out of excuses. W: Mm-hmm. Let's go... M: Oh, one minute. Before we go to the gallery, I just want to tell you that I never could have done this book without your help and your love. I appreciate it. W: Thanks. Now, no more putting off, ok? Let's go. (23)
