英语听力原文：
Ed: Hey Rocky! Youve been sitting around all night. Get out and dance with someone like that woman over there.
Rocky: No way! She looks like the intellectual type.
Ed: Oh come on man! What kind of woman do you like?
Rocky: I want a woman whos affectionate and fulfills my every need, and that woman over there is just not the right type.
Ed: Hey. Where have you been? Times are changing, and youre never going to find a woman who will shine your shoes and pick up after you all the time. Wake up.
Rocky: Oh really? I meet a lot of women like that, but not at this party.
I also prefer a woman wholl stay home, cook, clean, and watch the kids.
Ed: Okay, but what are your household responsibilities once you get home from work?
Rocky: Hmm. Eat, watch TV, and throw out the garbage.
Ed: Wait, wait, wait. I cant believe Im hearing this. In fact, youre never going to get married. I recently read a news report that said 40 percent of women dont think their husbands do their share around the house, and you seem to be that type.
Rocky: Well, thats the way I am, but whats YOUR idea of the perfect woman?
Ed: Well, I like a woman whos outgoing, caring, and non|judgmental about peoples differences, and it bothers me when people think their the center of the universe . . . like someone I know.
Rocky: Well, thats nice for you, but that doesnt change my point of view. I guess Ill have to go home to a TV dinner and my dog, Rusty.
Ed: Hey, and if I stick with you, this is going to be a long, lonely night. Say hello to Rusty for me.
