Basic Listening PracticeKeys: 1.B 2.D 3. A 4.A 5.CIII. Listening InTask 1:We should have proper respect for nature!Script:Martha:Do you think most people in your culture respect nature? Ed:I think so. Um... more now than before.Martha:What do you think is the most serious environmental problem in the world today?Ed: Today... I think damage to the ozone layer is a bigproblem, and another problem is pollution in big cities and things like that. Martha: How do you learn about environmenproblems?Ed: Um... through school. A lot of clubs promote environmental safety, and some TV programs, too. They talk about environmental safety and stuff like that.Martha: Do you think students should learn more about the environment at school?Ed: I think so. So, as they grow older, they can be more aware of all the problems that are going on, and also to prevent more problems from occurring.Martha: If you could create a new law to help the environment, what would it be?Ed: A new law for the environment? Um... I'd probably say that when people throw away their cigarette butts, they have to throw them into the garbage bin, not just throw them everywhere because it's just littering and I hate that. So they should be fined if they throw them on the floor or on the ground.Martha: That's a good idea. What do you personally do to help protect the environment?Ed: I'm so against littering. I never litter. If I see somebody litter, I get really angry. So I always throw my trash into thegarbage bin. Keys:(1)nature(2)environmental problem(3)pollution(4)promote(5)aware of(6)from occurring(7)law(8)throw away(9)fined(10)trashTask 2:River pollutionScript:If you see dead fish floating on the river or notice that the water is discolored and smelly,you know the river has been polluted, and there are four main possible causes for it.First, fertilizer. If large amounts of fertilizer or farm waste drain into a river, the concentrations of nitrate and phosphate in the water increase considerably.Algae use these substances to grow rapidly, turning the water green.This massive growth of algae leads to pollution. When the algae die, they are broken down by the action of the bacteria, which quickly multiply, using up all the oxygen in the water and therefore causing the death of fish.Second, industrial waste. Factories sometimes discharge chemical waste into rivers. Examples of such pollutants include cyanide, lead,copper, and mercury. These substances may enter the water in such high concentrations that fish and other animals are killed immediately. Sometimes the pollutants enter the food chain and accumulate until they reach toxic levels, eventually killing fish and other animals.Third, oil pollution. If oil enters a slow-moving river, it forms a rainbow-colored film over the entire surface, preventing oxygen from entering the water.Fourth, warm water. Industry often uses water for cooling processes, sometimes discharging large quantities of warm water back into rivers. A higher temperature of the water lowers the level of dissolved oxygen and upsets the balance of life in the water. Keys:1.D 2.A 3.B 4.C 5.DTask3: Curbing carbon emissionsScript:Although it is not an easy task, China is striving to fulfill the promise to cut its carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP by 40 to 45 percent in the next 10 years.Zhang Guobao, Director of the National Energy Administration, said, “The government puts great emphasis on seeking harmonious development between cities and the environment, and is readjusting the energy structure by giving priority to thedevelopment of clean and low-carbon energies, including hydroelectric, nuclear, wind, and solar power."Government authorities have closed small, coal-fired plants with a total capacity of 60.06 million kilowatts in the past four years. This year's target of closing 10 million kilowatts of capacity will be achieved by August."We have promised to the international community that 15 percent of our power will be generated from nonfossil sources by 20XX年," Director Zhang said. At present, non-fossil energy accounts for only7.8 percent.China is making efforts to increase the proportion of cleanenergy in its total energy consumption. Statistics show that China invested US$34.6 billion in clean energy last year, exceeding the United States which invested US$18.6 billion. Thus, China has become the world leader in generating clean energy. Five years earlier, China's investment in clean energy was only US$2.5 billion.However, China's carbon emission reduction target cannot be achieved easily. The shift to a low-carbon economy might be met at a cost to society. For instance, more than 400,000 people were laid off as a result of the shutdown of small coal-fired power plants in the past four years. Many studies indicate that the effort to curb greenhouse gas emissions may delay China's development, affectpeople's income, and lead to unemployment.Keys:1.D 2.D 3.A 4.B 5.CIV. Speaking OutMODEL1MODEL2MODEL3V. Let?ˉs TalkTask 1:Disappointment over climate negotiationsKeys:1) doesn't really actually commit anyone to doing anything,2) the atmosphere simple can't take the kind of emissions we've been seeing in the business-as-usual scenario and there's no real commitment to change that.3) There's no real commitment to put serious money on the table4) It's not backed by action,5) It does not constitute a... a deal.6) It's a hollow shell7) it lacks anything on emissions cuts8) There's no guarantee that there will be new money, that the money will be real, that there's actually a commitment to get there, or that it will be channeled in new ways,Task 2:What's your answer? Two speakers hold a negative attitudetoward the world climate conference.Task 3:Let's group work!Developed countries should bear more responsibilities.First, they caused most of the world pollution in their industrialization process.Second, they are already economically advanced, with morefunds to deal with pollution problems.On the other hand, developing countries caused less pollution in the past, and now they need rapid development.Therefore, an international agreement the Kyoto Protocol in 1997 stipulated common but differentiated responsibilities for developed and developing nations, which means that both should be responsible for environmental protection and cut carbon dioxide emissions, but the former must take more responsibility.Recently, however, some wealthy countries have insisted that developing countries like China should shoulder more responsibilities.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingListening Task:Task1: The environment and the developmentScript:Li:Hi, Professor Wang.I'm Li Lin, a correspondent for the university newspaper.The staff and students here are getting more and more interested in the relationship between the environment and economic development.What do you think is the most serious environmental problem at present? What measures should we adopt to improve the environment and develop the economy at the same time?Wang: There are many environmental problems: air pollution, water pollution, desertification, overfishing, destruction of natural habitats, acid rain, overconsumption of wild animals and plants, etc. But lying at the center of all those problems, as I see it, is the contradiction between economic growth and the environment.Since the United Nations Earth Summit in 1992, growing number of people and governments have adopted the new idea of "sustainable development". This means today's economic growth should not wipe out the resources and options for future generations. Planning and development should ensure not only economic growth, but also social advancement and environmental health. In other words, some economic behavior must be restricted or controlled. Instilling principles of sustainable development into government planning, resource management and economic policy is the most important step China can take to solve its environmental problems.China has already taken some remarkable steps to reduce damage to the environment. For instance, following the hugefloods of 1998, the government banned logging in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in order to protect forests and reduce the risk of floods.Still, the basic contradiction between the environment and development persists. Much work is to be done before we can achieve the aim of a balance between economic growth and the environment.Keys:(1)water pollution(2)overconsumption(3)economic growth(4)resources(5)social advancement(6)restricted(7)government planning(8)economic policy(9)remarkable steps(10)balanceTask 2: Thick cloud of pollution covering southern AsiaScriptA United Nations study says a thick cloud of pollutioncoveringsouthern Asia threatens the lives of millions of people. Scientists say the pollution could increase lung disease and cause early death. The cloud is also damaging agriculture and affecting rainfall levels. It has affected many countries in southern Asia. The pollution cloud is three kilometers high. Scientists say it can move halfway around the world in a week.The cloud is the result of forest fires, the burning of agricultural waste, and huge increases in the burning of fuels by vehicles, industries, and power stations.Pollution from millions of bad cooking stoves has made the problem worse.Many poor people burn fuels like wood and animal waste in such stoves.Scientists say the cloud of pollution appears to cool the land and oceans by blocking sunlight.They say it reduces the amount of sunlight reaching the Earth's surface by as much as 15 percent.At the same time, heat inside the cloud warms the lower parts of the atmosphere.Harmful chemicals from the cloud are mixing with rainfall.This acid rain damages crops and trees and threatens public health. Scientists are concerned that the pollution will intensify during thenext 30 years as the population of Asia increases to an estimated 5,000 million people.Keys:1.D 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.CTask3: Mountain regions face a number of dangersScriptMountain people around the world are in great danger of the negative effects of the worsening environment, according to a UN report.As global warming and deforestation accelerate and technology makes wilder places more accessible, environmental and social pressures on the world's remotest regions increase.The UN has found that many mountainous regions―inhabited by one out of five of the world's people―are barely recognizable when they are compared to what they were like 60 years ago.This is mostly because forests were cut to make way for cattle grazing and agriculture.The authors of the UN study expect 98 percent of themountain areas to experience severe climate change by 2055.Biological losses are expected to be heavy.The mountains of Europe, parts of California and the northwest Andes in South America are among the most threatened mountain areas in the world and should be given priority in conservation.The UN is anxious to raise awareness of the problems facing mountain areas because they are inhabited by some of the most vulnerable people.These people could lose their culture and their livelihood with even the smallest shifts in climate.At the same time, many mountain regions are losing people. Thousands of villages in Europe are deserted most of the year.In other areas like Nepal, people are drifting to the cities in search of work.Keys:(1)negative(2)report(3)warming(4)pressures(5)mountainous(6)barely(7)make way for(8)expect 98 percent of the mountain areas to experience severe climate change by 2055(9)The UN is anxious to raise awareness of the problems facing mountain areas(10)Thousands of villages in Europe are deserted most of the yearViewing and speaking:Task 1:Santa's home town in dangerScriptWeather experts may have found a new problem caused by global warming, one which many people will pay attention to: There are signs that Santa's home in the North may be in trouble because of warmer temperatures.The Finnish town of Rovaniemi on the Arctic Circle, which many Europeans say is the home of Santa Claus, has had its warmest winter in 40 years.As a result, there has been much less snow than usual―meaning no snowmen, no snowballs, and possibly not enough snow for Santa to ride his sleigh on.More important for local residents, it may mean fewer tourists, as well. Santa's wintry home town normally attracts thousands of visitors each year, and millions of dollars.Anne Pelttari-Bergman, the town's tourist director, worries that the town could be in trouble if snow levels do not return to normal. She explains: "Snow is really important for us, of course, for Santa Claus, for Christmas tourism, and also for our winter tourism because winter is our best season. It is really important for us."Weather experts and town residents are hoping this warm winter isan one-time thing. Few people can imagine a holiday when even Santa does not have a white Christmas.Keys:(1)signs(2)warmer temperatures(3)warmest(4)snow(5)attracts(6)trouble(7)normal(9)one-time(10)whiteTask 2:Talk after viewingScriptThe image of Santa Claus flying in a sleigh pulled by reindeer and leaving toys and gifts for every child is known worldwide, and Santa Claus has become the most beloved of Christmas symbols.But if the weather at Santa's home town were to become so warm that there was no more snow at Christmas, Santa Claus would lose his charm.So snow is really important for Santa Claus, for his home town'sChristmas tourism, and its winter tourism as winter is the best season in Santa's home town.Unit 2 testPart IKeys: 1.C 2.C 3.B 4.C 5.DPart II(1)chemicals(2)atmosphere(4)trapped(5)lasts(6)human-based(7)progressed(8)Even in Ancient Rome people complained about smoke put into the atmosphere(9)Air pollution can have serious consequences for the health of human beings(10)Cities with large numbers of automobiles or those that use great quantities of coal often suffer most severely from air pollution problemsPart III1.A2.C3.D4.C5.BPart IV1.B2.C3.D4.C5.C6.A7.D8.D9.B 10.C。

I have to present it to the class tomorrow.Mom: Do you know the material?Mandy: I think so.Mom: OK, let’s practice.

When I’m 23, I may come home to look for a job. Most probably in a bank or an accounting firm. After working for 4 to 5 years, I may have some savings to start a family.

Here are the details. My plane arrives on Friday at 2 p.m. When I get to the airport, I’ll take a taxi, so I’ll arrive at yo ur house at about 3:00. That evening, Jeff and Carol are taking us out for dinner at a nice restaurant. I really want to spend Saturday at the beach. I’m bringing my swimsuit and beach clothes. I looked at the weather forecast on the Internet. The weather is going to be sunny and beautiful. I’ll see you soon!KaitlynAudio Track 3-3-7/ Audio Track 3-3-8Celebrating life changesIn Mexico and some other Latin American countries, girls mark their fifteenth birthday with a celebration called the Quinceanera. In the morning, the birthday girl goes to church with her family and her best friends. She wears a beautiful (and sometimes very expensive!) dress. Later in the day, there is a huge party, with a big cake that matches the girl’s dress, and a night filled with music and dancing.When older people in the United States retire, their friends and coworkers often give them a retirement party to celebrate this life change. On their last day of work, there is a big dinner, with entertainment afterward. People make speeches and tell jokes about the retiree. Guests like to give presents, such as an album of photos of the retiree’s coworkers, or a homemade video of the retiree’s friends.Becoming an adult is a very important life change, and Japan has a special holiday to celebrate this. The second Sunday in January is Coming-of-Age Day. On that day, everyone who had theirtwentieth birthday in the last year goes to their town’s City Hall for a special ceremony. Everyone dresses up, and many women wear beautiful kimonos. The mayor makes a speech and gives presents to all the new adults.Some kids are afraid to start school, but six-year-olds in Germany can’t wait. For them, Schulanfang is a big holiday. To celebrate a child’s first day of school, parents or friends give the child a Zuckertuete, a big colorful cardboard cone filled with candy and little presents. People take pictures of the kids holding their Zuckertuete, and there is a school party later for the parents, with cake and coffee.Audio Track 3-3-9Coping w ith life’s stressorsLet’s face it: Life is stressful. Stressful events in our lives are called “stressors.” Some of them are minor, such as uncomfortable air conditioning or a loudly ringing telephone.

Roberto, however, said his life was planned already, almost right up to retirement. He thought it was important to have well-defined goals, but Claudia said that Roberto should keep his options open, and “go with the flow.” Roberto agreed, but only if the “flow” followed his plan!。

Unit 3 Outside View Activity 1Activity 2Activity 3Listening inNews ReportActivity 1ScriptPrince George is influencing education just by going to school. Since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s announcement that the little prince will be attending a Montessori nursery school, more people have been interested in the Montessori method of education.The Maria Montessori Institute in London, which runs several schools and a Montessori teacher training centre, reports that there has been a 65 per cent increase in parents signing up for information about their schools compared to last year. Many are curious about the Montessori method, which focuses on the individual development of each child rather than tests and grades.Many people are also now interested in being a Montessori teacher. There is a specific training required for teachers at Montessori schools. There has been a 45 per cent increase in people looking to attend information sessions for teachers. The Maria Montessori Institute offers an open afternoon every so often when people can go and observe students, and those events have been fully booked since Prince George joined.1. What is the news report mainly about2. What do we learn about Montessori schools from the news reportActivity 2ScriptLumos Labs, the company that developed the brain training app Lumosity, was recently fined $50 million by the Federal Trade Commission for deceiving its customers about the brain training benefits of its programmes. However, the company cannot afford to pay it, and will only pay $2 million to settle the charges.Launched in 2005, Lumosity has over 70 million registered users worldwide. For a monthly fee of $, members have access to over 50 online and 25 mobile games. The games target and train specific areas of the brain. They are claimed to improve brain health, help you perform better at work and in school, and delay brain decline associated with age, if you play them three to four times a week for 15 minutes each time.However, the government found that Lumos Labs could not provide scientific evidence to support its claims that its games can improve memory, attention and focus. The $2 million settlement will be used to pay back users.1. What is the news report mainly about2. What do we learn about Lumosity from the news reportPassage 1 Activity 1Activity 3Passage 2 Activity 1Activity 2Pronunciation Activity 2Unit Test Section A Script1.M: Sandra, how is your philosophy class goingW: Alright, I guess. We’ve been talking about Plato at great length, and are just now getting to Socrates.Q: What does the woman say she has been doing in class2.W: My boss handed out the new organizational vision statement today at work.M: Let me guess –everyone should assimilate and work as one unit for the betterment of the whole companyW: You said it, there is just no room for individualism there.Q: What is the woman complaining about3.W: What was it like to meet the presidentM: Oh, just to be in his presence was overwhelming.Q: What does the man mean4.W: I can’t seem to focus on anything the lecturer talks about in class.M: Oh, no, why notW: She uses so much technical language that I quickly get confused.M: It’s important to not get bogged down in details. Remember to keep the topic of the lecture in mind and listen for the most important information.Q: What does the man say is important for the woman to do5.M: I’m having a lot of trouble beginning this report. Do you have any adviceW: Sure. The first thing you need to do is determine the thrust of your argument and supporting evidence you will use.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do firstAnswer ABDBCSection BScriptW: Hi, Steve, how was your day at workM: Interesting! We took a questionnaire and it turned out that I’m a reflector.W: A whatM: A reflector. It’s my learning style. It means that I usually gather evidence before making a decision or judgment about something.W: Evidence What kind of evidenceM: Well, like listening to other people’s ideas and partaking in activities that allow freedom to observe and reflect on things.W: Oh, I get it now. You like to listen and reflect on things before making a decision. Yeah, that sounds like you.M: It was a really affective activity to learn about ourselves. I wonder what learning style you have.W: I don’t know. I don’t think I’m a reflector though.M: Why notW: It’s too passive. I like to work together with other people, focus on the problem and work out the solution to discussion and experimentation.M: Ok. I can definitely see that about you.Q6: How did the man discover his learning styleQ7: Which of the following is the likely context for this conversationQ8: Which of the following would the woman likely beAnswer BCASection CScriptLast summer, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Beijing. It was a wonderful experience. The history and culture of the city were fascinating to me.One of the first things I noticed, however, was that Chinese people weren’t as direct as the people I knew back home in California. If a friend at home wanted to ask me a favor, he or she would come right out and ask. In China, people would have a long conversation, asking questions and telling stories before finally asking the favor.At first, I thought everyone was just being overly polite in my presence since I was a foreigner and they wanted to be hospitable or maybe because they wanted to practice their English. However, I soon noticed that Chinese people had similar conversations among themselves. Very few people were direct. It felt like many people were talking in circles before they eventually arrived at their point.I’m not sure which method I prefer. Sometimes Americans can be too direct, it’s true. But it seems to me that Chinese are sometimes too circular, we must be able to strike a balance and find a happy medium.Q9: What probably is the speakerQ10: With which of the following statements would the speaker probably agreeQ11: What can the information presented be best described asAnswer BACSection DScriptWhat’s something you’ve always wanted to accomplish but never have Whatever it is, it probably seems like there are insurmountable obstaclesstanding between you and your goal. But the truth is, these goals arecompletely achievable —and in most cases, you are the only one holdingyourself back.That’s according to Bernard Roth, a professor at Stanford University. Roth’s new book, The Achievement Habit, outlines how a strategy called "design thinking" can help you create meaningful challenges in your life. “Design thinking”is typically used to improve on a specific product or experience. Yet “the achievement habit”means how the very same process can be turned inward, helping individuals become happier and more successful.Design thinking is a five-step process:1. Empathize: learn what the issues are.2. Define the problem: identify question you are going to answer.3. Ideate: generate possible solutions.4. Prototype: abandon perfection and either build your project or develop a plan.5. Test and get feedback from others.Roth says the individual steps aren’t as important as some of the guiding principles behind “design thinking”: a bias toward action and fear of failure. The point of “design thinking”is to challenge your automatic thinking and assumptions.Q12: What does this news report mainly talk aboutQ13: What is the title of the book written by Bernard RothQ14: What is the key point of design thinkingAnswer ABC。

英语视听说Unit-3答案
Unit 3 Outside View Activity 1Activity 2Activity 3Listening inNews ReportActivity 1ScriptPrince George is influencing education just by going to school. Since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s announcement that the little prince will be attending a Montessori nursery school, more people have been interested in the Montessori method of education.The Maria Montessori Institute in London, which runs several schools and a Montessori teacher training centre, reports that there has been a 65 per cent increase in parents signing up for information about their schools compared to last year. Many are curious about the Montessori method, which focuses on the individual development of each child rather than tests and grades.Many people are also now interested in being a Montessori teacher. There is a specific training required for teachers at Montessori schools. There has been a 45 per cent increase in people looking to attend information sessions for teachers. The Maria Montessori Institute offers an open afternoon everyso often when people can go and observe students, and those events have been fully booked since Prince George joined.1. What is the news report mainly about2. What do we learn about Montessori schools from the news reportActivity 2ScriptLumos Labs, the company that developed the brain training app Lumosity, was recently fined $50 million by the Federal Trade Commission for deceiving its customers about the brain training benefits of its programmes. However, the company cannot afford to pay it, and will only pay $2 million to settle the charges.Launched in 2005, Lumosity has over 70 million registered users worldwide. For a monthly fee of $, members have access to over 50 online and 25 mobile games. The games target and train specific areas of the brain. They are claimed to improve brain health, help you perform better at work and in school, and delay brain decline associated with age, if you play them three to four times a week for 15 minutes each time.However, the government found that Lumos Labs could not provide scientific evidence to support its claims that its games can improve memory, attention and focus. The $2 million settlement will be used to pay back users.1. What is the news report mainly about2. What do we learn about Lumosity from the news reportPassage 1Activity 1Activity 3Passage 2 Activity 1Activity 2Pronunciation Activity 2Unit Test Section A Script1.M: Sandra, how is your philosophy class goingW: Alright, I guess. We’ve been talking about Plato at great length, and are just now getting to Socrates.Q: What does the woman say she has been doing in class2.W: My boss handed out the new organizational vision statement today at work. M: Let me guess – everyone should assimilate and work as one unit for the betterment of the whole companyW: You said it, there is just no room for individualism there.Q: What is the woman complaining about3.W: What was it like to meet the presidentM: Oh, just to be in his presence was overwhelming.Q: What does the man mean4.W: I can’t seem to focus on anything the lecturer talks about in class. M: Oh, no, why notW: She uses so much technical language that I quickly get confused.M: It’s important to not get bogged down in details. Remember to keep the topic of the lecture in mind and listen for the most important information. Q: What does the man say is important for the woman to do5.M: I’m having a lot of trouble beginning this report. Do you have any advice W: Sure. The first thing you need to do is determine the thrust of your argument and supporting evidence you will use.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do firstAnswer ABDBCSection BScriptW: Hi, Steve, how was your day at workM: Interesting! We took a questionnaire and it turned out that I’m a reflector. W: A whatM: A reflector. It’s my learning style. It means that I usually gather evidence before making a decision or judgment about something.W: Evidence What kind of evidenceM: Well, like listening to other people’s ideas and partaking in activities that allow freedom to observe and reflect on things.W: Oh, I get it now. You like to listen and reflect on things before making a decision. Yeah, that sounds like you.M: It was a really affective activity to learn about ourselves. I wonder what learning style you have.W: I don’t know. I don’t think I’m a reflector though.M: Why notW: It’s too passive. I like to work together with other people, focus on the problem and work out the solution to discussion and experimentation.M: Ok. I can definitely see that about you.Q6: How did the man discover his learning styleQ7: Which of the following is the likely context for this conversationQ8: Which of the following would the woman likely beAnswer BCASection CScriptLast summer, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Beijing. It was a wonderful experience. The history and culture of the city were fascinating to me.One of the first things I noticed, however, was that Chinese people weren’t as direct as the people I knew back home in California. If a friend at home wanted to ask me a favor, he or she would come right out and ask. In China,people would have a long conversation, asking questions and telling stories before finally asking the favor.At first, I thought everyone was just being overly polite in my presence since I was a foreigner and they wanted to be hospitable or maybe because they wanted to practice their English. However, I soon noticed that Chinese people had similar conversations among themselves. Very few people were direct. It felt like many people were talking in circles before they eventually arrived at their point.I’m not sure which method I prefer. Sometimes Americans can be too direct, it’s true. But it seems to me that Chinese are sometimes too circular, we must be able to strike a balance and find a happy medium.Q9: What probably is the speakerQ10:With which of the following statements would the speaker probably agree Q11: What can the information presented be best described asAnswer BACSection DScriptWhat’s something you’ve always wanted to accomplish but never have Whatever it is, it probably seems like there are insurmountableobstacles standing between you and your goal. But the truth is, thesegoals are completely achievable — and in most cases, you are theonly one holding yourself back.That’s according to Bernard Roth, a professor at Stanford University. Roth’s new book, The Achievement Habit, outlines how a strategy called "design thinking" can help you create meaningful challenges in your life. “Design thinking” is typically used to improve on a specific product or experience. Yet “the achievement habit” means how the very same process can be turned inward, helping individuals become happier and more successful.Design thinking is a five-step process:1. Empathize: learn what the issues are.2. Define the problem: identify question you are going to answer.3. Ideate: generate possible solutions.4. Prototype: abandon perfection and either build your project or develop a plan.5. Test and get feedback from others.Roth says the individual steps aren’t as important as some of the guiding principles behind “design thinking”: a bias toward action and fear of failure. The point of “design thinking” is to challenge your automatic thinking and assumptions.Q12: What does this news report mainly talk aboutQ13: What is the title of the book written by Bernard RothQ14: What is the key point of design thinkingAnswer ABC。

VLS B3 Uint 3II. Basic Listening Practice1.ScriptW: Chinese students are too shy to say anything in class.M: I think they don’t speak because their culture values modesty, and they don’t want to appear to be showing off. Goes back to Confucius.Q: Why d on’t Chinese students say anything in classroom according to the man?2.ScriptW: The government is doing something at last about sex discrimination in the workplace.Women deserve the same pay as men for the same work.M:Yeah. In the United States, women earn only 70 percent of what men do for the same job.It’s a situation that has to be changed.Q: What does the man say about women?3. ScriptW:I admire Michael Dell. He had a dream to be the world’s largest manufacturer of personal computers, and he has realized that dream.M: And he dropped out of university to become a success. I wonder if there is a lesson in that.Q: What do we learn about Dell from the conversation?4. ScriptM: Successful entrepreneurs are often self-made people who have a vision and know where they are going.W: But do they enjoy life like you and me, or is money their only concern?Q: What are the two speakers’ attitudes toward successful entrepreneurs?5. ScriptW: Do you agree that equal opportunity for all in an educational system is important? M: Yes, but we have to recognize that all of us are not of equal ability.Q: What does the man imply?Keys: 1.C 2.A 3. D 4.B 5.AIII. Listening InTask 1: Competition in AmericaScriptAlan: What are you reading, Eliza?Eliza: An article on American competition.Alan: Competition is everywhere and constant. Why so much fuss about it, Miss Knowledge? Eliza:Don’t make fun of me. According to the author, competition is especially important in American life. They’re taught to compete from early childhood. When children play games, they learn how to beat others.Alan: And many girls want to look more attractive than the girls sitting next to them in class. Do you think that way?Eliza:Don’t be silly. Let’s get back to the point. When children are growing up, they compete with one another in their studies.Alan: Isn’t that also true of students in other nations? As we all know, many Asian students kill for a high test score and grab every opportunity to sharpen their competitive edge over others.Eliza:American boys find great pleasure in competing with each other in sports, according to the author.Alan: I do like sports. When our football team beats the other team, I feel great. Makes me want to shout out loud. But isn’t that normal t hroughout the world?Eliza: American people also compete with each other at work and at climbing the social ladder.Alan: But there’s competition in other countries as well.Eliza: You’re right in a sense, but the author says the idea of competing is more deeply rooted in the minds of Americans. They’re even taught that if you lose and don’t feel hurt, there must be something wrong with you.Alan: I hear that some Asians put emphasis on cooperation. Which approach do you think makes more sense?Eliza: It’s hard to say. Anyway, there’s no accounting for different cultures.1.What is the dialog mainly about?2.What is the woman doing?3.What do children learn from playing games according to the woman?4.What does the man say about students’ studies?5.What does the woman say when asked which makes more sense, competition or cooperation? Keys: 1.C 2.A 3.C 4.B 5.DTask 2: Americans’ Work EthicScriptFor four hundred years or more, one thing has been a characteristic of Americans. It is called their “work ethic”. Its (S1) roots were in the teaching of the Christian Puritans who first settled in (S2) what is now the northeastern state of Massachusetts. They believed that it was their (S3)moral duty to work at every task to please God by their (S4) diligence, honesty, attention to details, skill, and attitude. To these Puritans, it was a (S5) sin to be lazy or to do less than your best in any task. They and later Americans tried to follow the Bible’s (S6) teachings, “If a man will not work, he shall not eat.”Therefore, Americans have for (S7) centuries believed that they were guilty of sin if they did not work as carefully and hard as they could when they did anything. God would punish those who were careless or lazy in their work. (S8) Even as children they were taught,“If it’s worth doing at all, it’s worth doing well.”But some people have gone beyond the usual sense of diligence. They are especially attracted to the notion of “climbing the ladder” so as to increase their status, financial position, and sense of self-worth. (S9) In English a new word has been created to describe people who work compulsivelly. The word “workaholic” describes an individual who is as addicted to work as an alcoholic is to alcohol.There are conflicting points of view about workaholics. Those concerned with problems of mental stress believe workaholics abuse themselves physically and mentally. (S10) Others hold that workaholics are valuable members of society because they are extremely productive. The American culture values achievement, efficiency, and production, and a workaholic upholds these values.Task 3: Cross-cultural tips on doing businessScriptCountries from around the globe, such as Germany, the U.S., the U.K., and Russia, conduct a lot of business in China-the biggest market in the world. Here are some tips to help you deal more successfully with people from those nations.Firstly, you must be punctual with the Germans. Being even five minutes late makes a poor impression. Being punctual is also very important with the Americans and the British. But while it's important to be on time for business meetings, nobody expects you to be punctual for a social event. Half past seven really means a quarter to eight, or even eight o'clock! With Russians, always be on time, but don't be surprised if your Russian contract is very late! It is not unusual for them to be one or even two hours late!In the business environments of those four countries, it is best to wear formal clothes of dark colors. In Russia, designer clothes are rather common. However, don't be surprised if you go to an office in the U.K. on a Friday and find everyone wearing jeans. Many companies in the U.K. have "dress down Fridays", when people wear casual attire.In conversation, the British and the Americans love humor and talking about sports. The weather is also a good topic of conversation with the British, but you should avoid political talk. With the Russians, say positive things about their country, and avoid making complaints. The Germans, however, prefer to get straight down to business!Remember that with the Germans, once a deal has been agreed upon, you can't change it! With the Americans money is more important than relationships, whereas with the Russians it's important to get to know your contacts well. Also, don't be surprised if a British meeting seems like chaos, with everyone participating and giving opinions!Remember these tips and you will be on your way to a successful international business career!Key1 What is true of the Americans and the British in terms of punctuality?D) They are punctual for business meetings, but less so for social events.2. In which country do people have “dress down Fridays"?A) The U.K.3. What can you infer about the Russians from their conversation?D) They are patriotic.4. How can you do business well with the Russians?A) You should know your contacts well.5. What is the speaker's attitude toward the four nationalities?C) He is neutral to all of them.IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1 Americans glorify individualism.Susan: John, I was looking for you. Where have you been hiding all morning?John: Well, I caught Professor Brown’s lecture on American individualism.Susan: Oh, how did you find it?John: Enlightening. Americans glorify individualism. They believe individual interests rank above everything else.Susan: Sounds interesting. It’s a sharp contrast to the oriental collectivism Professor Wang talked about last semester.John: But you should know that the individualism in the United States is not necessarily an equivalent for selfishness.Susan: Then what does it mean in the States?John: They believe all values, rights, and duties originate in individuals, so they emphasize individual initiative and independence.Susan: There could be something in that. Of course in oriental countries the interests of the group are more important than anything else.John: So, it’s all the more necessary for foreigners to understand American culture, or they can’t hope to understand the importance of pri vacy in the West.. Susan:Maybe that’s the reason nuclear families outnumber extended families in the United States.John: Right on! You’re catching on fast!Susan: Now let me ask you a question.John: Shoot. Go ahead.Susan: Why do Americans cherish individualism more than oriental people?John: I don’t know. Anyway, Professor Brown didn’t say.Susan: One reason might be that American children stop sleeping with their parents at an early age. They learn independence early, so it’s deeply rooted.John: Wow, that’s an intelligent guess!MODEL2What do you think are the reasons for that difference? ScriptSusan: Do you find that people in America often walk faster than people in China?Americans always seem to be in a hurry.John: It’s hard t o come to a definite conclusion. Some Americans walk in a leisurely way, and some Chinese hurry all the time. But on the whole, I think you’re right. Susan:What do you think are the reasons for that difference?John: Americans treasure time. For them, time is tangible. It’s a thing. “Time is money.” You can “spend time”, “waste time”, “save time”. You can even “kill time”!Susan:Does this strong sense of time affect their lifestyle?John:Sure. If you’re 20 minutes late for a business appointment, the other person or persons will be annoyed. They may not trust you anymore.Susan: But as far as I know, English-speaking people may be 15-30 minutes late for a dinner party.John: That’s true. For an informal occasion like that, punctuality is not so i mportant.Also, a boss may keep his employees waiting for a long time.Susan:But if his secretary is late, she’s in trouble. She will probably receive a reprimand.John: How true!Susan: The American workship of time probably led them to create fast foods.John: I agree. And globalization shrinks the differences between cultures. Now people everywhere are rushing, and anywhere you go, you find Kentucky Fried Chicken. Susan: But plenty of Chinese are still making appointments saying, “If I am late, w ait for me.”John: But with more intercultural communication, I think the gap will eventually be bridged, and Chinese will be hurrying everywhere.MODEL3That’s the secret of their success.ScriptChris: Hey Sue, how’s the math class going? Are you h ead of the class?Susan:Are you kidding? There’s a bunch of foreign students in the class---from China somewhere---and they are on top.Chris: Why do you think so many Chinese students excel in math? It’s been my observation that the Chinese students are usually the best.Susan:In class they don’t say much, but they definitely get the best marks.Chris: I think part of it is their work ethic. They never skip class, and they pay attention.Susan:One Chinese student in my class did homework each night until the early hours.He never took a break, watched TV, or went out for a beer.Chris:That’s the secret of their success: hard work and diligence.Susan:It’s so unfair. I could probably do better if I worked harder, but that’s no fun. I think learning should be more fun.Chris:Someone with a knowledge of chess would find a chess tournament fascinating. But if you don’t have the knowledge, then you won’t understand the significance of the moves, and you’ll be bored.Susan:So what you’re saying is knowledge requires hard work, and knowledge makes things interesting.I am not against knowledge; I just want to learn it in an interesting way. What’s more, “Allwork and no play makes Jack a dull boy.”V. Let’s TalkScriptThe International Slavery Museum has opened at Albert Dock, in Liverpool. Many people traveled from all over the world to celebrate the opening on 23rd of August.The museum is a place of reflection, contemplation and education.It tells the story of the cruel acts of the transatlantic slave trade, the stories of the lives of the millions of African people, who were forced from their homelands onto ships that sailed to unknown lands where they were made to work on farms and in mines in harsh conditions without dignity or payment.Liverpool is one of the many British seaports that became very rich from money made transporting goods such as cotton and sugar, produced by African slaves.One of the most important parts of the museum's exhibits are the stories of the lives of people who live all over the world today, whose family history can be traced to the Africans whose lives were changed forever by the transatlantic slave trade.It has taken four years of hard work and planning to organise the creation of the museum, and its opening year is a very significant date because in 2007 we commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act.This was a law made in 1807; it banned all British people from taking part in the slave trade. Later in 1833 all people who had been forced into slavery to work for British companies were freed.Keyl. It tells the story of the cruel acts of the (l)transatlantic slave trade, the stories of the lives of the millions of African people, who were forced from their homelands onto ships that sailed to (2)unknown lands where they were made to work on farms and in mines in harsh conditions without (3)dignity or payment.2.

In 1833 all people who had been forced into (3)slavery to work for British companies were (4)freed.VI.Further Listening and SpeakingTask 1: PunctualityT o Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other people’s time. Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology, and maybe an explanation. People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay.Of course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on tome. At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time. But they usually don’t try that at work.American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others. When people plan an event, they often set the time days or weeks in advance. Once the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to chance it. If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient. Only very close friends will just “drop in” unannoun ced. Also, people hesitate to call others late at night for fear they might be in bed. The time may vary, but most folks think twice about calling after 10:00 p.m.To outsiders, Americans seem tied to the clock. People in some Eastern cultures value relati onships more than schedules. In these societies, people don’t try to control time, but to experience it. Many Eastern cultures, for example, view time as a cycle. The rhythm of nature---from the passing of seasons to the monthly cycle of the moon---shapes their view of events. If they have wasted some time or let an opportunity pass by, they are not very worried, knowing that more time and opportunities will come in the next cycle. But Americans often want to jump at the first opportunity. They are unwilling to stand by idly and give up the opportunity.The early American hero Benjamin Franklin expressed that view of time like this: “Do you love life? Then do now waste time, for that is the stuff life is made of.”1.According to the passage, when people are late in America, what do they do?2.According to the passage, what do Americans do after the time for an appointment isfixed?3.How do people in some Eastern countries view relationships and schedules?4.According to the passage, why aren’t some Eastern people w orried if they let anopportunity pass by?5. What was Benjamin Franklin’s view of time?Keys: 1.C 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.DTask 2: Our Personal SpacesScriptOur personal space, that piece of the universe we occupy and call our own, is contained within an invisible boundary surrounding our body. As the owners of this area, we usually decide who may enter and who may not. When our space is invaded, we react in a variety of ways. We back up and retreat, stand our ground as our hands become moist from nervousness, or sometimes even react violently. Our response shows not only our unique personality, but also our cultural background.For example, cultures that stress individualism such as England, the United States, Germany, and Australia generally demand more space than collective cultures do, and tend to become aggressive when their space is invaded. This idea of space is quite different from the one found in the Mexican and Arab cultures. In Mexico, the physical distance between people when engaged in conversation is closer than what is usual north of the border. And for middle easterner, typical Arab conversations are at close range. Closeness cannot be avoided.As is the case with most of our behavior, our use of space is directly linked to the value system of our culture. In some Asian cultures, for example, employees do not stand near their bosses; the extended distance demonstrates respect. Extra interpersonal distance is also part of the cultural experience of the people of Scotland and Sweden, for whom it reflects privacy. And in Germany, private space is sacred.Keys: 1.T 2.F 3.T 4.F 5.FTask 3: We don’t know what to do with them.ScriptA Russian, a Cuban, an American businessman, and an American lawyer were passengers on a fast train speeding across the French countryside. As time wore on, the men gradually became friendly with one another, introducing themselves and shaking hands. Eventually, the Russian took out a large bottle of vodka and poured each of his traveling companions a drink. Just as the American businessman was sipping the vodka and praising its fine quality, the Russian hurled the half-full bottle out of the open window.“What did you do that for?” asked the startled American businessman.“Vodka is plentiful in my country,” said the Russian, “In fact, we have thousands and thousands of liters of it---far more than we need.”The American businessman shook his head and leaned back in his seat, obviously baffled by the Russian’s reasoning.A little later, the young Cuban passed around a box of fine Havana cigars. The men enjoyed this treat and made admiring remarks about the pleasures of smoking good Havana cigars. At that very moment the Cuban took a couple of puffs of his cigar and then tossed it out of the open window.“I thought the Cuban economy was not good this year,” the American businessman said. “Yet you threw that perfectly good cigar away. I find your actions quite puzzling.”“Cigars,” the Cuban replied, “are a dime a dozen in Cuba. We have more of them than we know what t o do with.”The American businessman sat in silence for a moment. Then he got up, grbbed the lawyer, and threw him out of the window.Key:1.The Russian hurled the half-full bottle of vodka out of the open window.2.He answered, "Vodka is plentiful in my country. In fact, we have thousands and thousandsof liters of it-far more than we need."3.The businessman said, "I thought the Cuban economy was not good this year. Yet you threwthat perfectly good cigar away. I find your actions quite puzzling."4.He replied, "Cigars are a dime a dozen in Cuba. We have more of them than we know whatto do with."5.The American businessman sat in silence for a moment. Then he got up, grabbed the lawyer,and threw him out of the window. He did that probably because he thought there were too many lawyers in the United States.希望对大家有所帮助，多谢您的浏览！Viewing and SpeakingKey1)disappearing 2) kicking 3) tea shop 4) image crisis 5) update 6)compete 7)fast 8)product designers 9) contacts 10)similar 11)want 12)challenge 13) consumer 14) traditional（注：可编辑下载，若有不当之处，请指正，谢谢!）授课：XXX。

VLS Ｂ３Uint2II. Basic Listening Practice1.ScriptM: Now we have satellite and high-powered microscope, it’s easy to think we know everything about the world; but we still don’t understand EI Nino.W: Right. Scientists all over the world over are even uncertain about the cause of the warm Pacific current that brings storms or drought—the mysterious EI Nino.Q: Which of the following is true according to the conversation?2. ScriptM:Everyone is talking about environmental problem: acid rain, the greenhouse effect, holes in the ozone layer. We should think positively. What can we do to improve things?W: I agree. We could do a lot more to harness the sun’s energy for heating and lighting in our homes. In Japan 43,000 solar roofs were installed in 2002.Q: How do the man and the woman view the environment?3. ScriptW: We lived in Beijing some years ago. It was always difficult to keep the house clean with wind from the north blowing sand from the desert at us.M: That’s why the Chinese government has been encouraging people to plant trees along the edges of the Gobi Desert. Now those trees act as wind barriers.Q: What did the government encourage people to do?4. ScriptM: Many old refrigerators and cars are environmental hazards because they contain CFCsthat destroy the ozone layer.W:Yes, but government or organizations are helping people to safely dispose of old refrigerators or, in the case of cars, to upgrade their air conditioning.Q: What are government departments helping people to do?5. ScriptM: Hey, that’s an aerosol spray you’re using on your hair! Build a bomb or set fire to the apartment to kill us quickly instead of making holes in the ozone, so we die of cancer. W: Cool it, man. This spray doesn’t contain CFC s. And you’d better read a little more. In 2003 the hole in the ozone layer shrank by 20 percent, so there’s no reason to panic. Q: What does the man mean?Keys: 1.B 2.D 3. A 4.A 5.CIII. Listening InTask 1: We should have proper respect for nature! ScriptMartha: Do you think most people in your culture respect nature?Ed:I think so. Umm…more now than before.Martha: What do you think is the most serious environment problem in the world today? Ed: Today…I think damage to the ozone layer is a big problem; and another problem is pollution in big cities and things like that.Martha: How do you learn about environmental problems?Ed: Umm…through school. A lot of clubs promote environmental safely, and some TV programs, too. They talk about environmental safely and stuff like that.Martha:Do you think students should learn more about the environment at school? Ed: I think so. So, as they grow older, they can be more aware of all the problems that are going on. And also to prevent more problems from occurring. Martha: If you could create a new law to help the environment, what would it be? Ed: A new law for the environment? Umm…I’d probably say that when people throw away their cigarette butts, they have to throw them into the garbage bin,not just throw them everywhere because it’s just littering and I hate that. Sothey should be fined if they throw them on the floor on the ground. Martha:That’s a good idea. What do you personally do to help protect the environment?Ed: I’m so against littering. I never litter. If I see somebody litter, I get really angry.So I always throw my trash into the garbage bin.While being interviewed by Martha, Ed said more people in his culture respect nature ever before. When asked about the most serious environmental problem in the world today, he mentioned the damaged ozone layer and the pollution in big cities.Ed learned about environmental problem at school. A lot of clubs and some TV programs promote environmental safely. He believes that students should learn more about the environment at school. Then they can be more aware of all the problems and prevent more problems from occurring.When asked about a new law he would like to create to help the environment, he said that when people throw away their cigarette butts, they have to throw them in the garbage bin. They should be fined if they throw them on the floor.Personally, Ed is so set against littering that he never litters. He always throws his trashinto the garbage bin.Task 2 River pollutionIf you see dead fish floating on the river or notice that the water is discolored and smelly, you know the river has been polluted, and there are four main possible causes for it.First, fertilizer. If large amounts of fertilizer or farm waste drain into a river, the concentrations of nitrate and phosphate in the water increase considerably. Algae use these substances to grow rapidly, turning the water green. This massive growth of algae leads to pollution. When the algae die, they are broken down by the action of the bacteria, which quickly multiply, using up all the oxygen in the water and therefore causing the death of fish.Second, industrial waste. Factories sometimes discharge chemical waste into rivers. Examples of such pollutants include cyanide, lead, copper, and mercury. These substances may enter the water in such high concentrations that fish and other animals are killed immediately. Sometimes the pollutants enter the food chain and accumulate until they reach toxic levels, eventually killing fish and other animals.Third, oil pollution. If oil enters a slow-moving river, it forms a rainbow-colored film over the entiresurface, preventing oxygen from entering the water.Fourth, warm water. Industry often uses water for cooling processes, sometimes discharging large quantities of warm water back into rivers. A higher temperature of the water lowers the level of dissolved oxygen and upsets the balance of life in the water.Questions and key1. What is the passage mainly about?D) The causes of river pollution.2. Why does the river water turn green?A) Because nitrate and phosphate in the water increase.3. What harm does industrial waste cause?B) Poisoning.4. Which of the following is true of oil pollution?C) It prevents oxygen from entering the water.5. What harm can warm water in a river bring?D) Lack of oxygen.Task3: Curbing Carbon emissionsScriptAlthough it is not an easy task, China is striving to fulfill the promise to cut its carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP by 40 to 45 percent in the next 10 years.Zhang Guobao, Director of the National Energy Administration, said, "The government puts great emphasis on seeking harmonious development between cities and the environment, and is readjusting the energy structure by giving priority to the development of clean and low-carbon energies, including hydroelectric, nuclear, wind, and solar power."Government authorities have closed small, coal-fired plants with a total capacity of 60.06 million kilowatts in the past four years. This year's target of closing 10 million kilowatts of capacity will be achieved by August. "We have promised to the internationalcommunity that 15 percent of our power will be generated from non-fossil sources by 2020," Director Zhang said. At present, non-fossil energy accounts for only 7.8 percent.China is making efforts to increase the proportion of clean energy in its total energy consumption. Statistics show that China invested US$34.6 billion in clean energy last year, exceeding the United States which invested US$18.6 billion. Thus, China has become the world leader in generating clean energy. Five years earlier, China's investment in clean energy was only US$2.5 billion.However, China's carbon emission reduction target cannot be achieved easily. The shift to a low-carbon economy might be met at a cost to society. For instance, more than 400,000 people were laid off as a result of the shutdown of small coal-fired power plants in the past four years. Many studies indicate that the effort to curb greenhouse gas emissions may delay China's development, affect people's income, and lead to unemployment.Questions and keyl. What is the passage mainly about?D) Cutting carbon dioxide emissions: China's achievements and problems.2. From four years ago until August this year, how many kilowatts of coal-fired plant capacity willhave been closed?D) More than 70 million.3. By 2020, what will be the proportion of non-fossil energy in the total power in China?A) 15%.4. Which of the following is true of the investment by China and the United States inclean energy last year?B) China's investment was almost twice as large as the United States'.5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a problem arising from curbing greenhouse gas emissions?C) Causing more strikes.IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1 Our globe is in dangerJohn: How is your Grandma getting along during this usually hot weather?Nora: Over the last few years, Granny has been complaining that the hot, humid weather is killing her. She believes the weather has changed.John: What she means is the climate’s long-term conditions; weather refers only to day-to-day conditions.Nora: Yeah, she says summer is hotter, and winter wetter. But I tried to comfort her, saying, “It’s all in your mind, Granny.”John: She’s right, you know. The greenhouse effect does bring global warming and rain. Nora: How can I explain global warming and greenhouse gases to a 97-year-old Granny? John: Tell her the earth now is like a real greenhouse made of glass panels that let in light and trap heat.Nora: Think she’ll want to know that carbon monoxide from earth makes greenhouse gases?John: Everybody should know what cause global warming; otherwise we won’t stop it. Nora: I’ll tell Granny not to burn any more wood or coal, or to use spray on the hair. John: OK, joke about it, but it won’t be so funny when the polar icecaps melt and oceansrise.MODEL2 Rainforests will soon be only a memory.ScriptSusan: Hey, Chris, there is an environmental group on campus asking for donations to save the rainforests.Chris: So what?Susan: So what?! Don’t you want to save the rainforests?Chris: But there’re no rainforests in our country. They need hot, tropical climates. Susan: Come on. A rain forest is any forest where heavy rainfall leads to dense vegetation.Tropical rainforests can be found in hoe, tropical areas, but there are also cool rainforests, including one in southeast Alaska.Chris: How did you know that?Susan: Well, I’ve just read a book on rainforests. You know, 140nillion people live in the world’s rainforests, and 35 percent of the world’s plant and animal species exist only in rainforests.Chris: Wow, I’m impressed. So what else have you learned?Susan: Most of the world’s rainforests are in danger of destruction by loggers, farmers and developers. They are disappearing at a rate of 1000 acres a minute!Chris: It’s terrible!Susan: Yeah, we’ve got to find a way to save them. Now would you like to give a donation?Chris: Sure.Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: Most of the world’s rainforests are in danger of destruction by loggers, farmers and developers. They are disappearing at a rate of 100 acres a minute!B: What a tragedy! , Many of the world’s plant and animal species exist only in rainforests. A: We really need to save the beautiful forests.B: Yeah, we’ve got to find a way to save them.A: Do you know our mayor is making a call to plant trees?B:Yeah, we do have to plant more trees. I hear China doesn’t have a lot of forests compared with many countries.A: That’s true. I’ve just read an article about afforestation. China’s forest coverage rate was 18.21percent last yea, ranking only 130th in the world.B: No wonder we have to plat more trees.A: Don’t lose heart. Progress has been remarkable. In 2000 the rate was just 16.55 percent.B: Any other good news?A: China has stepped up its tree-planting efforts. Now it’s the world’s No.1 planter of trees.B: Wow, I’m impressed.MODEL3 What a terrible sandstorm!ScriptSusan: Hey, John. You’re back. A few days ago, a big sandstorm hit our cityJohn: Oh, that’s bad.Susan: The air was full of dirt and sand and dust. I had to wear a scarf around my head. John: The dust, as I know, comes from Mongolia. And from my reading in science, I’ve heard the dust often comes after a long period of drought.Susan: This is a serious problem in many parts of the world, and unfortunately our city is one of them.John: And if the drought continues, the soil is easily airborne. And then if the wind comes, the soil can be lifted up on the cold are that rises up, and it can travel very long distances.Susan: Normally, when there’s a wind, it can clear the air, and you have beautiful weather.But when the dust is brought in with the wind, then you can’t breathe, you can’t see well, and it’s dangerous for driving, or for walking.John: Yeah. You know, when the dust is lifted up it can go as high 3,000 meters. And it’s not just China that has problems, but many other countries. For example, the middle of Australia sometimes has dust storms, and some of the dust goes up very high, goes across the ocean, and falls down on New Zealand.Susan: Not a very nice neighbor.John: Is there a solution to the problem?Susan: We need to plant more trees and grass so that the soil can stay where it is. John: No wonder the government is launching a new afforestation program in a bid t address the environmental problem.V. Let’s TalkMan 1: Well, it's inspirational language which is nice and lovely and fluffy, but doesn't really actually commit anyone to doing anything, and so it's really hard totake to the bank. I mean, people's lives are on the line in the developing world where we are seeing the impacts felt first and foremost, And obviously the atmosphere simply can't take the kind of emissions we've been seeing in the business-as-usual scenario and there's no real commitment to change that. There's no real commitment to put serious money on the table and that's a big problem.[On-screen text: Wind Farm]This is a great photo op for all the world leaders, but if it's not backed by action, it really doesn't mean much at the end of the day.Man 2: What's in there is very disappointing. It does not constitute a_ a deal. It's a hollow shell that will need to be filled in, and it has some numbers, it talks about trying to avoid two degrees. That's the same language that the G8 used last July. But it lacks anything on emissions cuts as yet that would guarantee that we're actually on the, on track to get there. And the financing commitments... there is a mention of a 1OO-billion-dollar figure and the attempt to raise or mobilize that level of resources, but there's no guarantee that there will be new money, that the money will be real, that there's actually a commitment to get there, or that it will be channeled in new ways, as yet.Key(1) -b (2) - a (3) -h (4) -d(5)-g (6)-e (7)-c (8)-fVI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: The environment and the developmentScriptLi: Hi Professor Wang, I’m Li Lin, a correspondent from the University Newspaper. The staff and students here are getting more and more interested in the relationship between the environment and development. What do you think is the most serious environmental problem at present? What measures should we adopt to improve the environment and develop the economy at the same time?Wang:There are many environmental problems: air pollution, water pollution, desertification, over-fishing, destruction of natural habitats, acid train, over-consumption of wild animals and plants, etc. But lying at the center of all those problems, as I see it, is the contradiction between economic growth and the environment.Since the United Nations Earth Summit in 1992, more and more people and governments have adopted a new idea; that is, “sustainable development”. This means today’s economic growth should not wipe out he resources and options for future generations. Planning and development should ensure not only economic growth, but also social advancement and environment health. In other words, some economic behavior must be restricted or controlled. Instilling principles of development into government planning, resource management and economic policy is the most important step China could take to solve its environmental problems.China has already taken some remarkable steps to reduce damage to the environment. For instance, following the huge floods of 1998, the governmentbanned logging in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in order to protect forests and reduce the risk of floods.Still, the basic contradiction between environment and development persists. Much work is to be done before we can achieve the aim of a balance between economic growth and the environment.Task 2:ScriptA United Nations study says that a thick cloud of pollution covering southern Asia threatens the lives of millions of people. Scientists say the pollution could increase lung disease and cause early deaths. The cloud is also damaging agriculture and affecting rainfall levels. It has affected many countries in southern Asia. The pollution cloud is three kilometers high. Scientists say it can move halfway around the world in a week.The cloud is the result of forest fires, the burning of agricultural waste, and huge increases in the burning of fuels by vehicles, industries and power stations.Pollution from millions of bad cooking stoves hs made the problem worse. Many poor people burn of fuels wood and animal waste in such stoves.Scientists say this combination could be changing winter rainfall levels in Asia. They say rainfall has increased over the eastern coast of Asia. But it has dropped sharply over parts of northwestern Asia. The report says the cloud could reduce rainfall over northwesternPakistan, Afghanistan, and western China by up to forty percent.Harmful chemicals from the cloud are mixing with rainfall. This acid rain damages crops and trees and threatens public health. Scientists are concerned that the pollution will intensify during the next thirty years as the population of Asia increase to an Estimated 5,000 million people.1.What is the true of the cloud of pollution?2.What is NOT the cause of the cloud of pollution?3.What does the cloud of pollution bring about?4.Why will the pollution intensify in the next 30 years, according to the passage?5.What do you think is the best title for the passage?Keys: 1.D 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.CTask 3 Mountain regions face a number of dangers. ScriptMountain people around the world are in great danger of the negative effects of the worsening environment, according to a UN report.As global warming and deforestation accelerate and technology makes wilder places more accessible, environmental and social pressures on the world’s remotest regions increases.The UN has found that many mountainous regions—inhabited by one out of five of the world’s people—are barely recognizable when they are compared to what they ere like60 years ago. This is mostly because forests were cut to make way for cattle grazing and agriculture.The authors of the UN study expect 98 percent of its mountain areas to experience severe climate change by 2055.Biological losses are expected to be heavy. The mountains of Europe, part of California and the northwest Andes in South America are among the most threatened mountain areas in the world and should be given priority in conservation. The UN is anxious to raise awareness of the problem facing mountain areas because they are inhabited by some of the most vulnerable people. These people could lose their culture and their livelihood with even the smallest shifts in climate.At the same time, many mountain regions are losing people. Thousands of villages in Europe are deserted most of the year. In other areas like Nepal, people are drifting to the cities in search of work.Viewing and speakingScript and keyWeather experts may have found a new problem caused by global warming, one which many people will pay attention to: There are (l)signs that Santa's home in the North may be in trouble because of (2)warmer temperatures.The Finnish town of Rovaniemi on the Arctic Circle, which many Europeans say is the home of Santa Claus, has had its (3)warmest winter in 40 years. As a result, there has been much less snow than usual-meaning no snowmen, no snowballs, and possibly not enough (4)snow for Santa to ride his sleigh on.More important for local residents, it may mean fewer tourists, as well. Santa's wintry home town normally (5)attracts thousands of visitors each year, and millions of dollars.Anne Pelttari-Bergman, the town's tourist director, worries that the town could be in (6)trouble if snow levels do not return to (7)normal. She explains: "Snow is really important for us, of course, for Santa Claus, for Christmas tourism, and also for our winter tourism because winter is our (8)best season.

Unit 3 Attitudes Toward LifeText AAre Tou An Optimise.Tamara Eberlin1 Positive thinking is a lot more than blind faith—and its power over people’s lives is awesome. Optimists fare better than pessimists in almost every aspect of life, often achieving more and enjoying greater social success. Optimistic people are also less susceptible to depression and physical ills. Psychology professor Martin E. P. Seligman states, “There’s eviden ce that optimism bolsters the immune system. ”2 Psychologists believe optimism and pessimism are habits we learn as children, and our parents are our role models. When a water pipe broke and flooded your new home, did your father lament, “Why did I pick such a lousy house”? Or did he declare, “ Our contract guarantee d everything would be in perfect condition, so I’ll have the builder fix the plumbing and replace the damage. ” j3 “ Optimism is a habitual way of explaining setbacks to yourself. J says Seli gman,1 Here’s how it works;4 The pessimist believes bad events stem from permanent conditions ( I failed the math quiz because I don’t have a head for numbers” ) and good events from temporary ones ( “ My husband brought me flowers because he had a good day at work ” ). The optimist, however, attributes failure to temporary causes ( “ I failed the test because I didn’t pay attention”) and favorable situations to enduring causes (“He brought me flowers because he loves me” ).5 The pessimist allows a disappointment in one area of his life to pervade the rest. Say he’s laid off from work. The pessimist not only feels bad about losing his job, but he also starts to worry that his marriage is in trouble and his kids are out of control. 'The optimist doesn’t l et one setback contaminate his whole life. So at the moment I don’t have a job, he thinks. My wife and I are still close, and my kids are doing well at school.6 When things go wrong, pessimist blame themselves. If another driver dents your parked car, you chide yourself for parking in a “stupid” spot. The optimist j ascribes such trouble to a fluke or looks for a new approach—“ Next time I’ll park where there are fewer cars. ”7 “The thought Nothing I do matters prevents pessimists from trying toimprove the situation,” Seligman notes. “So, confronted by a setback, they just give up.8 Want to become more of an optimist? Luckily, learned habits can be unlearned. The latest research shows that optimism is a skill anyone can master. Here’s a four-step program to help you to think positively.Challenge Negative Ideas9 Suppose you’re late getting to work. Rather than berating yourself—“ I’m always late” -—keep your self-appraisal accurate. Try to remember when you were last late. Was it yesterday? No, eight weeks ago. Are you late because you lazed in bed? No, your teen-ager emptied the car’s tank last night, so you had to stop for gasoline.10 Imagine the worst-case scenario, but then picture the best. “I’m going to get fired.” You moan. N ot likely. Maybe the boss gets caught in traffic and arrives even later than you. Next, envision the most likely scenario: the boss scowls as you scurry to your desk—embarrassing, but far from fatal.11 Finally, look for a solution. Work through lunch, or leave the house ten minutes earlier to allow for unforeseen delays.12 “Think of the failure as the result of a faulty strategy, not some character flaw”, says Seligman. “Then, instead of feeling helpless, you can take action. Rehearse Being a Winner13 “In experiment, people who imagine themsel ves succeeding outperform those who expect to fail, ” explains psychology prof essor David Myers. Afraid you’ll blow your diet at your niece’s wedding? Before the big day, vi sualize yourself passing up crab puffs in favor of vegetables.: By the time you face the real challenge, your mental rehearsals will have given you confidence and willpower.14 Suppose you were recently divorced. A friend arranged a dinner party to which she’s a lso invited an eligible man. The pessimist in you moans, “He won’t be I interested in me.”Now ask yourself what the optimist would do. Put on that * black dress friends say is so flattering? Do it!Give Yourself Credit15 Acknowledge past successes. Analyze the good things that happen to you as a result of your own efforts. Your vacation photographs were superb not because the camera was designed for dummies, but because you are skilled at lighting 1 and composition. Your barbecue was a success not because the weather was nice, but because of your preparation and social skills.16 Celebrate achievements. “I fixed that hole in the wall without having to call the carpenter. Now I’ll treat myself to a new power tool. ” Taking pride in your accomplishments builds a sense of self-worth.Set Goals17 Hopefulness, says psychologist C. R. Snyder, “requires both ‘willpower and way power’ —the means to achieve your goals. ” Choose those goals wisely and make sure they are your own. If your father dreamed you’d take over thefamily hardware store but you love books more, you’ll be happier as a librarian.18 Be specific. Vague pl ans “ to do more for the community” have less chance of succeeding than do vows to volunteer once a week at a soup kitchen. Break down large goals into smaller ones to keep from being paralyzed by the enormousness of your task.19“With each interim goal you reach,” says Snyder, “you’ll see progress. You’ll feel energized and excited about what’s to come. ” And that’s the mark—and the power—of an optimist.(907words)。

研究生-国际交流英语-视听说-3--听力原文Unit 1 Gender and SocietyAnalytical listeningListening 1A LectureA | &B |OK, so today we’re going to continue on the topic of how children are socialized. We’ll be looking at gender socialization—in other words, how, how children learn their gender roles. Gender is something that we learn— first from our parents, then from our peers, from school, and from the culture we live in. OK, let’s start withour parents. Generally, our gender roles are pretty clear to us by the time we’re around three years old. So how do we, how do we learn these roles so quickly?Well, one way is simply by what our parents say to us. Parents give female children a lot of compliments on how they look—on their appearance, right? We say things like, “What a pretty girl!” o r “That’s a nice dress you’re wearing.” Girls might get compliments on other things, too, but they, they soon learn that being feminine has something to do with being attractive or pretty, right? Boys, in contrast, are complimented on what they do. We say things like, “Look how fast little Timmy can run! Good for you, Timmy!” So over time, boys learn that being, being masculine has something to do with their behaviour and with being active.Our peers, when we’re children—girls and boys around the same age as we are—also teach us about gender roles, andsometimes they’re not very nice about this either. They make fun of children who aren’t following the rules. Can you re member kids from your childhood who didn’t follow the gender rules? Schools continue, scho olscontinue the process of gender socialization. Some schools have separate classes for girls and boys, and, um, of course school uniforms are different— pants for boys,and skirts or dresses for girls. Finally, the culture we live in has a lot to teachus about gender roles.C |As you know, one of the first questions when a baby is born is, “Is it a boy or a girl?” We think it’s important to know this because when children grow up, theirrole in the world depends on their gender—at least to some degree. But nowadays, gender roles are changing, and besides, there have always been a few people who arenot average, who do not follow the usual gender pattern.One person from history who did not follow her usual gender role was Hatshepsut. Around 150 years before Tutankhamen ruled ancient Egypt as pharaoh, or king, Hatshepsut ruled for 21 years as the female king of Egypt. That’s right—female king, because there was no such thing as a queen as leader. A few women had filled the role of leader when their sons were too young to rule, but Hatshepsut stayed in power even after her stepson, Tutmose III, was old enough to rule. And she accomplished a lot while she was king! Up and down the Nile River we can still see the monuments and buildings that were constructed or repaired while Hatshepsut was king. It seems that she did not want to be forgotten.Besides the buildings and monuments, we have a lot of art from the time of Hats hepsut. And what’s interesting is that at first, Hatshepsut is shown with female characteristics—she was clearly a woman, but with the clothing and symbols of a king. For example, in one statue, she is seated and has the body of a woman but is wearing the headdress of a king. In later years, we see the reverse. All of the later artwork shows h er as a man, with male characteristics. We’re not sure why Hatshepsut had her artists do this, but it may have helped her to keep power. It might have been easier for Egyptians to accept a man as king—or at least someone who looked like a man.Listening 2A Conversation Between ClassmatesA |Mia: Hey, Dylan! Long time, no see!Dylan: Yeah, it’s been ages! I was gone all summer. I had a job working for my uncle, so I stayed with him in T oronto for two months. What about you, Mia? How’ve you been?Mia: Great! I just spent the time right here because I was taking a course in summer school. I want to graduate early.Dylan: Wow, you’re really working hard! So,... What do yo u think about this class we’re in?Mia: Oh, I think it’s going to be great! It’s such a n interesting topic—“Gender and Sociology”.Dylan: Hmmph. I suppose. I can see that Professor Henley is very knowledgeable on the subject. But I can also see that I disagree with her about a lot of things.Mia: Such as... ?B |Dylan: Well, I think some jobs just aren’t good for womenlike firefighters for instance.Mia: What? You think women aren’t brave enough or something?Dylan: Hey, I never said that! But, well, the y aren’t as strong— physically, I mean. Do you think a woman could carry me out of a burning building? Come on, everyoneknows men are stronger than women.Mia: Ha! So, you think you’re stronger than the female athletes in the Olympics,just because you’re a man?Dylan: Well, no, of course not ...Mia: Then you can’t say that all men are s tronger than all women. Here, let me draw you a graph ...Dylan: What’s that?Mia: It’s from my summer school class. We had to do some research on gender differences, and similarities. OK ... now ... look at this ... This line here shows how it looks if you make a graph of how strong women are, by how much weight they can lift. Here.A small woman can’t lift more than 20 pounds. And a woman athlete canlift 200 pounds. Right?Dylan: I don’t know, I guess so.Mia: Now, what about men? Can all men lift 200 pounds?Dylan: Well, no, probably not.Mia: Can you lift 200 pounds? Hmmm?Dylan: (laughter)Mia: So, maybe a really small man can only lift, oh, 50 pounds. And a really big man can lift 200, so not all men are equal in terms of physical strength either ... There are different levels of strength within the genders, too ... So, the line for menloo ks like this ... Do you see what I mean? In fact, it’s true that most men are stronger than most women ... so there is a gender gap when it comes to physicalstreng th. But you can’t conclude that all men are stronger than all women. And ifyou have to lift, say, 150 pounds to be a firefighter, then some women can do the job. Dylan: Well, I suppose so.Mia: Besides, most women are smaller than most men. So possibly they can go into smaller spaces to rescue people.C |Dylan: It sounds like you just want women to compete with men and take their jobs away.Mia: No, I don’t! There are lots of good jobs that only women used to do, and nowmen are hired for them, too.Dyl an: Hmm. I can’t think of any!Mia: Well, look at flight attendants. For a long time people thought that only women had the ability to be helpful on planes.Dylan: Yeah, back when they still used to call them stewardesses, right?Mia: Yeah! My aunt was a flight attendant— or stewardess—when she was young, andshe said it used to be just awful. They were required to be very thin, and they weren’t allowed to keep their jobs if they gained weight! Oh, and they wereforbidden to get married, and they had to stop working when they were 32—can you imagine? But now that’s all changed, fortunately, and the airlines encourage men to become flight attendants, too. There are lots of men who are flight attendants now.Dylan: It sounds like a great job to me—traveling every day and meeting so many people. I can’t imagine why the airlines didn’t want men.Mia: Well, they thought that all women were more helpful than all men!Dylan: Now, that’s a stupid idea. And hey, men can lift heavier bags for the passengers! Remember? “Most men are stronger than most women.”Mia: Dylan, you’re impossible!Viewing the WorldWodaabeNarrator: For 51 weeks of the year, the Wodaabe, a nomadic African tribe, eke out a living on a parched strip of land in West Africa.In the 52nd week, they dance. This is far more than an ordinary dance, though. Part beauty pageant and part mating ritual, this dance is part of a seven-day festivalthat gives the men in the tribe the opportunity to show off for the women. For Wodaabe men, this is the time to weave the web of enchantment. For psychologists, the Wodaabe festival provides insight into the impact of appearance on attraction and social behavior.All the Wodaabe—but especially the men—pride themselves on their physical beauty. Light skin, thin lips, a long nose and jawline. The Wodaabe consider these to be the ideal features, and they accentuate them with carefully applied makeup.Wodaabe Man: If a man puts black color on his lips, it makes his white teeth stand out, and this is very attractive to women. If a man puts yellow on his face, it brings out his charm and personality and makes him irresistible.Narrator: The first part of the dance, known as the yaake, begins in the late afternoon. The dancers face the setting sun so its golden rays will enhance their beauty.The object of the yaake is to make oneself as irresistible as possible to the group of eligible women who are monitoring every move and expression.Narrator: The three most beautiful women of the clan act as judges. They expresstheir approval of certain dancers by a tap on the chest without making eye contact.It is taboo for them to look directly at those they find attractive. The yaake ends just before sunset. Slowly the dancers disperse to prepare for the night’s festivities.After a rest period, preparations for the second part of the dance begin—the sacred dance of physical beauty called the geerewol. Unlike the yaake, in which the men are evaluated on charm and personality as well as looks, the geerewol dancers will be judged on the basis of beauty alone. Only the most handsome men dare to compete.Narrator: Normally the geerewol would be danced throughout the night, but a drought has shortened the supply of drinking water, so the Wodaabe elders call a halt to the dancing shortly before midnight. By then, many of the members have paired up. The women have chosen the men they find most attractive and appealing.Shortly after sunrise on the final night, the Wodaabe prepare to leave thecelebration site. After a week of dancing, they are once again nomads.Further ListeningListening 1Kabuki is a traditional form of singing and dancing theater that is still popular in Japan. One unusual characteristic of kabuki is that all the roles of women are played by male actors called onnagata. These actors spend many years studyi ng women’s behavior and activities, such as sewing. Some people say that the actors are more feminine than real women are!There are many examples of male actors who play roles of the opposite gender, but the r everse doesn’t happen very often. The Year of Living Dangerously is a famous movie from the 1980s. It’s about an Australian journalist who meets a news photographer during a time of terrible violence.Many people didn’t notice that the star who played the role of Billy Kwan, the photographer, was actually a woman. Linda Hunt won an Academy Award for her acting in the movie. She gave Billy Kwan many characteristics that people think are masculine, especially courage.In the time of William Shakespeare, women were generally not allowed to appear on a th eater stage. In Shakespeare’s plays, female characters like Juliet (in Romeo and Juliet) were played by young boys. Some of them became very famous, like Nathan Field. When their voices changed and they grew older, these actors had to start playing men’s r oles.Listening 2Question: Timis County is located in the western part of which European Country?Eric Yang knew the answer. “Romania!” he said, and became the winner of theNational Geographic Bee. Every year, thousands of young people compete in this international contest of geographicalknowledge. Three winners from each country go on to the world championship.For years, however, the contest’s organizers have wondered about a question of their own: An equal number of girls and boys enter the contest at the school and regional levels. Why are so many of the national winners boys? In the United States, Eric’s home country, only two girls have won the top prize since 1989.Gender may also be a factor in success at the world championships, too.When the National Geographic World Championship was held in Mexico City, a team of three boys from Canada beat 16 other national teams. The second prize went to three boys from the U.S.A., and the third prize to three boys from Poland.As in the past, most contestants were male, and two scientists investigated the reasons for this. They concluded that there is in fact a small gender gap in geography, but they couldn’t find the cause. Possibly, boys are taught to be more assertive than girls, or they might feel more pressure from their parents. Maybe boys have a better ability to use maps. Or maybe teachers encourage boys more in geography classes.Listening 3For most of the year, the Wodaabe are nomadic, moving from place to place to find grass for their cattle. For one week each year, however, it’s festival time for the Wodaabe. It’s called the geerewol, and it’s a chance for Wodaabe men to show offfor the women.The geerewol is a kind of beauty pageant, and the men who participate wear makeup to emphasize the features that are considered beautiful by the Wodaabe: long noses, strong whiteteeth, and large eyes, among other characteristics.The geerewol is all about attraction—both physical beauty and charm. While the men dance, the women watch and carefully evaluate the men’s appearance. When anavailable woman finds a man who is irresistible to her, she lets him know with small gestures. With many women watching, the pageant has many winners.Unit 2 Human MigrationAnalytical ListeningListening 1A PowerPoint LectureA |。
