I strongly suggest consumers be informed of the ingredients of all the food.M:Don't suffer from imaginary fears. We have no evidence that GM foods can definitely harm our health. But we do know foods with chemicals can.Q:Which of the following is true according to the dialog?There are many ways in which human stem cells can be used in basic research and in clinical research.Studies of human stem cells may yield information about the complex events that occur during human development. A primary goal of this work is to identify how stem cells become divided or differentiated. Scientists know that turning genes on and off is central to this process. Some of the most serious medical conditions, such as cancer and birth defects, are due to abnormal cell division and differentiation. A better understanding of the genetic and molecular controls of these processes may yield information about how such diseases arise and suggest new strategies for therapy. A significant barrier to this use and most uses of stem cells is that scientists do not yet fully understand the signals that turn specific geneson and off to influence the differentiation of the stem cell.The most important potential application of human stem cells is perhaps thegeneration of cells and tissues that could be used for cell-based therapies. Today, donated organs and tissues are often used to replace ailing or destroyed tissue, but the need for transplantable tissues and organs far outweighs the available supply. Stem cells, directed to differentiate into specific cell types, will offer a source of replacement cells and tissues to treat diseases including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases, spinal cord injury, stroke, burns, heart disease and diabetes.For example, it may become possible to generate healthy heart muscle cells in the laboratory and then transplant those cells into patients with chronic heart disease.Genes are the parts of cells that control the growth of living things, including people. Now, a company in Iceland is working to create the most detailed map yet of all known human genes.Doctor Karl Stefansson, head of the company, believes that the people of Iceland present a special chance to study the human genome and how some genes cause disease. Iceland has a very small population—about 280,000 people. The majority of the population shares a small group of common ancestors who lived thousands of years ago. The people of Iceland keep extensive records of their ancestors. In addition, Iceland has an excellent healthcare system. Doctor Stefansson says his researchers are studying genetic diseases in many families over hundreds of years.So far, researchers have examined the genes of at least 146 families. The Iceland genome project is using a much larger group of individuals to observe differences in human genes than any other project. For example, American scientists made a genetic map based on only eight large families in France. Human beings have almost exactly the same genes. Small genetic differences make us look different from each other. These differences can also make us more likely to get some diseases.The company's main project is to identify genes that cause disease. Scientists believe most common diseases are caused by several abnormal genes working together. The company claims to have already found threedisease-causing genes, linking to a mental disease and two kinds of strokes.。

How do young students and older teachers see the role of education differe ntly?On the one hand, most stude nts on ly want to lear n what is n eeded for their career or immediate success. In their eyes one ' s lifetime drifts by and why not enjoy life to his heart ' s content. So the key role of education is to prepare themwell for a prosperous career, which in turn en sures a finan cially comfortable life for them. But, on the other hand, older teachers, with Ion ger and richer life experiences, believe that the quality of life is not entirely determined by a balanee sheet, and people can lead better lives if they can see beyond their immediate n eeds.2). What is “ quality of life ” and how can it be improved?When talki ng about quality of life, people would n aturally associate it with being financially well off. But the truth is that quality of life is not totally decided by our finan cial status. More importa ntly, we also want to feel that we have an un dersta nding of the world outside our career, for huma n beings have collected a great deal of kno wledge in many differe nt fields. To lead better lives, we should, first of all, develop a meanin gful philosophy of life. While we are striving to getfinancially wealthy, we should improve our moral sense at the same time.3). How can we realize the life value?A great man used to say “ Life is half spe nt before we know what it is clearly in dicates that not every pers on is aware of the meaning of life before he gets old eno ugh. Therefore, as collegestude nts, first of all, we must have a deep in sight into the meaning of life through our practical life experie nee and get rid of any false illusion. Besides, we must acquire adequate knowledge, foster our ability to work independently, and grow ourselves into intellectual maturity, thus pav ing the way for a successful career. More importa ntly, we must develop our moral sen se, which in cludes the sense of resp on sibility and the sense of devoti on. On ly in this way can we live a meanin gful life.2.Questi ons on the Topic and the Passage1)What is the conclusion drawn from the survey based on the responses from over 188,000 stude nts?Today'scollege beg inners are more con sumeristic and less idealistic tha n at any time in the 17 years of the poll.2)What do stude nts think about the importa nee of develop ing a mea nin gfulphilosophy of life?It is less importa nt tha n being finan daily well off or successful.3)Accordi ng to the text, what is the duty of educati onal in stituti ons?To help stude nts become aware of the meaning of life.4)How can we improve our moral sen se?We can improve our moral sense by acquiring knowledge accumulated throughout ages.5). Accord ing to the writer, what must educators prepare stude nts for?It is a fact that the meaning of life does not daw n upon young people easily, so schools must helpstude nts gain an in sight into the outside world bey ond their occupatio n, get far-sighted and beable to see the relati on ship betwee n in dividual thin gs. Accord ing to the author, educators must prepare stude nts for future, not only for career success but also for something much more important than a job. To make the point clear, the author tells of a cartoon where bus in essme n are hav ingdifficulty telli ng “right from wrongII.Backgro und In formati on1.Macon is a city in the middle part of Georgia, U.S.A.2.Robi ns Reside nt Cen ter: It is a service/trai ning cen ter for the U.S. Air Force, which is located in Macon State College.3.Huma nities : In the con text of the readi ng passage,huma nities refers to a broad academic discipli ne concerned with how people throughout history have expressed, confron ted, and un derstood the complexities of the huma n con diti on.

It is also known as the Old Age, Survivors and Disability In sura nee program (OASDI), i n refere nee to its three comp onen ts.7.Richard Wagner (1813-1883) is a famous German composer and writer. As a composer, he is well-known for his 13 operas. Besides his activity in composition, Wagner wrote an astonishing number of books and articles . The literary spectrum ran ges from theories of opera to political programs. Richard Wagner is un doubtedly one ofthe leadi ng figures of the 19th cen tury. He in spired not only musicia ns and composers but also leaders in many fields.8.Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), the son of an emi nent Dublin surge on, was an An glo-Irish playwright, no velist, poet, and short story writer. He is one of the most successful playwrights of late Victoria n London, and one of the greatest celebrities of his day. Some of his renowned domestic comedies include Lady Windermeres' Fan (1892), A Woman of No Importa nce(1893), and An Ideal Husba nd(1894).III.Text Structure An alysisThe essay is an argume ntati on for the point that thersa lot more to life tha n a job. It is of a problem-soluti on patter n which can be roughly divided into three parts.Part One con sists of Para.1 to Para.8, prese nti ng the problem. Para.1is a very general stateme nt that the saddest thing about youth is that it is wasted on the young. This is an old conv icti on which serves as alead-i n to develop the discourse in the way how youth is wasted on the young today. From Para.2 to Para.4, we can find a survey con ducted to find out what the youth today are thinking about. The survey report on first-year college stude nts shows that things of material value are of great importa nee to young people. Today's college beg inners are more con sumeristic and less idealistic” than before. From Para.5 to Para.8, the writer provides facts to support the argume nt that the stude nts today are more materialistic, from what they choose to learn in college to what they prefer for work. Finally in Para.s7 and 8, the writer presents another examples if a successful' student as being a sales representative. So from Para.1 to Para.8, the writer builds up a problem with our youth today that they are beco ming more and more in cli ned to care more about material things rather tha n anything else like social resp on sibility.Part Two is made up of 10 paragraphs, from Para.9 to Para. 18. This part is about how to deal with the problem prese nted from the previous 8 paragraphs. From paras.9 to 13, the writer builds up his argume nt that it is the duty of educati onal in stituti ons to help stude nts un dersta nd the meaning of life, In this part the writer argues that it is now more importa nt tha n ever to help our stude nts realize what is truly importa nt in life. And people can understand the meaning of life when they reach middle age. However, it is the duty of educational institutions to help students understand the meaning of life before they reach middle age. If we cannot, the whole system of educati on is to be challe nged. From paras14 to 18, the writer continues to argue about what educati on should do for us. Para. 14 puts forward the argume nt that educati on should teach us to see the connections betwee n thin gs, as well as to see bey on dour immediate needs. Para 15 is a fact to show if people fail to find the connection between things or see beyond their immediate needs, what the results will be—just like a strike for higher salary ending with the loss of jobs. Para. 16 is ano ther fact to show that in the mon ey-mak ing world, people are expected to tell right from wrong. Para. 17 is an example of a pers on who is successful both in his life and in his career. Education can do both. In para. 18 the writer quotes from Oscar Wilde, we ought to give our ability to our work but our genius to our livers”. That brings out an ideal model for educati on, being successful in both social life and on 'ow n life career.Part Three is the last paragraph. Paragraph 19 con cludes the essay by stat ing that our educators should an swer stude ntscries for career educati on and en sure that stude nts have the educati on that they will wishfor later in life.IV.Structured Writi ngA Paragraph of an Argume nt Supported by FactsOne writing technique for an argumentation is to support an argument with facts, statistics, examples, reas ons, etc. In this text we can find that facts are used to support an argume nt.Take paragraphs 14&15 for an example.In Paragraph 14 we have the argument: Education should teach us to see the conn ecti ons betwee n thin gs, aswell as to see bey ond our immediate n eeds. To support the argume nt the writer gives one fact in Paragraph 15: a strike for higher wages only to drive the employers out of jobs.V.Detailed Study of the TextWords & Phrases Study1.formal a. followi ng accepted rules of behavior 正式的，形式上的As it 'a formal dinner party, we will have to wear formal dress. 这是一个正式的晚宴，我们必须穿上正式的礼服。

Listening skillsScriptTo keep our children safe from dangerous criminals, these tips might be helpful. First, children should be encouraged always to ask permission from their caregivers before they go anywhere. They should not only tell the caregivers where they will be at all times, but also who will be looking after them. Also, children should never walk or ride their bikes alone. Instead, they shouldtravel in groups whenever possible. More importantly, children should be taught to stay away from strangers, though they may offer to show them a puppy or give them candy. Children should be taught to say "no" and run, scream, or fight if necessary. Moreover, children should be told that no problem is too big or too small to ask grown-ups. In fact, it is never too late to ask for help, and to keep asking until they get the help they need. Last but not least, we should realize that many child-attack cases involve a family member or family friend, for example, a stepfather, sister's boyfriend, babysitter, neighbor, and so on.1)First2)not only3)but also4)Also5)Instead6)More importantly7)though8)Moreover9)In fact10)Last but not least11)for exampleListening inTask 1ScriptGirl:Yes, I'd like to report a mugging.Policeofficer:OK. Can you tell me exactly what happened?Girl:Well, I was walking home from work when this woman knocked me right off my feet, seized my stuff, and ran off. I was soscared that I didn't go after her.Policeofficer:Can you describe the woman for me?Girl:Yeah. He is quite tall, about six feet three.Policeofficer:You said a woman robbed you.Girl:Well, I'm not really sure. Hmm. You see, the person was wearing a white dress, a light red sweater over it, and sheor he was wearing a pair of basketball shoes.Policeofficer:Hmm. What else can you remember?Girl:Well, the person... had a beard.Policeofficer:Ah! What was, uh, taken exactly?Girl:Well, just my left shoe. Strange, isn't it?Policeofficer:Ah. The "Bearded Woman" has struck again!Girl:The "Bearded Woman"?Police officer:Well, this "Bearded Woman" is a man. He dresses up like a woman and, for some unknown reason, likes to take the left shoe from his victims. He's really harmless and usually returns the shoe to the crime scene a couple of days later.Girl:Hey, he can keep my shoe, and I'll just take off my leftshoe every time I walk through the park.FTFTFTask 2ScriptA young man comes up to the border on his bicycle. He has twolarge bags over his shoulders. The border guard stops him and says, "What's in the bags?""Sand," answers the young man.The guard is a bit suspicious and asks the young man to open the bags for inspection. The guard empties the bags, but findsnothing in them but sand. Then he has the sand analyzed, only to discover that there is nothing but pure sand in the bags. So the young man is allowed to ride across the border with his sandbags.A week later, the same young man presents himself at the border with his bags. The guard asks, "What have you got?""Sand," says the young man.The guard does his thorough examination and discovers that the bags contain nothing but sand. He gives the sand back to theyoung man who then rides across the border on his bicycle withthe sandbags.This happens every week for three years. Finally, the young manno longer appears at the border crossing. Many months go by andthe border guard meets the young man in an expensive café."Hey," says the guard, "for three years you were smuggling something through my crossing station. It's driving me crazy.Just between you and me, what were you smuggling?" The young man drinks his coffee and says, "Bicycles."BDCACTask 3ScriptIt is important to keep your personal information secure. Here are some ways to help you fight identity theft. After all, you don't want someone else to ruin your good credit rating and perhaps keep you from getting the loan you want to get.The first thing you want to do is to watch how much information you give out on the Internet. For example, never put your credit card number into an email. If you do make purchases online, you need tobe careful. One way to be extra careful is to only use sites that offer a high level of encryption. Another way to be extra careful is to only use one credit card for all of your Internet purchases. Make sure that credit card has a low limit.Another thing you have to do to help you avoid ID theft is to destroy all your outgoing mail completely. Some thieves will pick up garbage, search through it, and pull out the credit card offers that you threw away because they were junk mail. Remember that a lot of your information is already there. All a thief has to do is forge your signature and mail the form back with a note that says you've changed your mailing address (to their address).The third way to avoid identity theft is to make sure that your mailbox is safe. Have a slot in your front door for the mail to fall through. Even though that is not completely safe, it is still much safer than the post box outside your front door.Correct answer(1) give out(2) number(3) online(4) sites(5) credit card(6) low(7) outgoing(8) thieves(9) offers(10) mailbox(11) front doorLet's talkTask 1ScriptTexas police say they have arrested a 91-year-old man, J. L.Hunter Rountree, who is accused of robbing a bank, making himprobably the oldest bank robber in U.S. history.Police said Rountree, who was not armed, asked a teller to putmoney into a large envelope with the word "robbery" written on it.A witness took down the license number of his car, and he was arrested on a highway about 15 miles outside the city.If he is proved guilty, Rountree will face from 10 to 20 years in prison. He told police he needed the money, and he had a complaint against banks.Rountree left a prison in Florida, where he was the oldestprisoner in the state, about a year ago. Before that, he served a three-year sentence for a bank robbery in Florida in 1999.In a prison interview with a journalist, Rountree said he had beena businessman in Texas but had fallen on hard times. He said he robbed his first bank when he was about 80 because he wanted toget revenge against banks."A bank that I'd done business with had forced me into bankruptcy.I haven't liked banks since," he told the journalist. "I decided I would get even. And I have."(7) Rountree first robbed a bank when he was 80 because he wanted toget revenge against banks.(6) He stayed in prison for three years for a robbery in Florida in1999.(5) Rountree left a prison in Florida about a year ago.(1) In Texas Rountree asked the teller to put money into an envelopemarked "robbery".(2) A witness took down the license number of his car parked outside.(3) Rountree was arrested on a highway 15 miles outside the city.(4) If proved guilty, Rountree will be imprisoned for 10 to 20 years.

I was sitting at the table near the window when two men rushed in and told everyone to freeze.Detective:Can you describe the men?Ms. Brown:One was tall and with a long coat on. The other was shorter in a red jacket.Detective:After they burst in what did they do?Ms. Brown:Well, the tall one pointed his gun at the clerk and told him to open the cash register. The short one was watching therest of us. The clerk hesitated a minute and just then therestaurant manager came out of his office. That surprisedthe thieves.Detective:Yeah, let's see... The manager's name is Mr. Jackson. I guess he had the key to the safe?Ms. Brown:Yeah! That's right! Because the thieves told him to open the safe. The shorter one went with him. As the manager turnedto go back to the office, he told the clerk to cooperatewith them.Detective:Did the boss open up the safe?Ms. Brown:Yeah, he went back into the office and opened it. He seemed pretty calm, not like the customers. I think that guydeserves a medal or something.Detective:You all do. Living through a robbery is a tough experience.1.freeze2.(1) tall(2)shorter(3)red jacket(1)his gun(2)open(3) the rest of the people4.(1)key(2)safe5.(1)calm(2)a medalFurther listening and speakingFurther listeningTask 2ScriptA passing police car heard loud screams and responded immediately. When the police arrived at the scene, they found Pete's dead body in his backyard, with many knife wounds and blood everywhere. Theofficer immediately went to question the three neighbors that had been outside in the past 30 minutes.Blake Smith had just finished painting his porch when the officer came. A young, polite man, Blake wiped his hands on his clean jeans before shaking hands, and said, "I've been outside all morning. Painting the porch ceiling took a long time. Pete lives two doors away. I really didn't see or hear anything," he added apologetically.Nelson Brown had been in his garden, right next door to the victim's yard. He said, "I was in and out of the house. Weeding." His hands were dirty. Then he added, "Inside, I was repairing a chair. It allmust have happened when I was indoors. Sorry."Kenny Green's story seemed less believable. "I was on a ladder, washing my windows," the middle-aged man admitted. The officer could see that Kenny's yard overlooked the victim's. But Kenny claimed, "I never looked over into Pete's yard, nor did I hear anything."Now the officer believed that one of the guys was lying. Who was this man?ACDCDBFurther listening and speakingFurther listeningTask 3ScriptThe list of institutions where personal information was reportedto have been stolen or lost this year is long, including manylarge banks, hospitals, universities and automobile stores. These places contain large numbers of precious records coveted by ID thieves. Even the Department of Justice is reported to have lost personal records when a laptop was stolen!The most common causes of these incidents are reported to behacking and lost records. Also, the theft of personal records canbe an inside job, where employees who have access to computer systems are tempted to steal large volumes of customer personaldata records. This temptation can be real, because stolen personal data can sell anywhere from $10 to $60 per record.Identity theft could be happening to you right now and youwouldn't know it until the damage was done. Even more disturbingis that newborns and the elderly are often the favorite victims of identity thieves, because the abuse of their personal informationcan go on longer before it is found out.Today, the theft of personal records is more dangerous than theloss of personal information through the careless discarding ofcredit card receipts or mail.FTTFF。

Unit 8 Receiving Visitors2.Listening PracticeTask 2-1A receptionist in a small firm may have to use a computer, operate a switchboard, and perform other clerical duties, in addition to receiving visitors. In a large firm a receptionist can concentrate on welcoming and looking after visitors.A visitor to a large firm should make an appointment, because executives are often very busy and do not have much time for visitors. Executives and secretaries should notify the receptionist in advance about important appointments, and about the movements of executives, especially when they are out of the building on business. Executives often ask receptionists to make travel arrangements for them, such as booking hotel rooms and airline tickets.Task 2-2There is a certain procedure for receiving visitors. A receptionist should find out if the visitor has an appointment or not. If the visitor is an important client, the executive or his secretary will come down to the reception area to greet the visitor. Sometimes the receptionist or another secretary escorts, or accompanies, the visitor to the executive’s office. Using the visitor’s name when he arrives is a friendly gesture and gives the visitor a good impression of the firm. The receptionist announces the visitor’s name, title and position, and introduces the executive to him.When a visitor’s request for a meeting cannot be satisfied, the receptionist should apologise and make some suggestions for an alternative time. If a meeting is impossible, the receptionist should express regret and explain why, with tact, so that the visitor’s feelings are not hurt.A receptionist should keep a register which includes dates, times, names and the firm the visitor works for. A receptionist can then refer to this if there is a request for information.4. Video 1(R for receptionist; S for secretary; V for visitor)R: Good morning.
