People here are too inflexible, and they have too many rules.Trish: Yeah, right, Steve, so you’re gonna convert everybody here to your way of doing things?Steve: Yeah, there has to be more individual freedom to do whatever you want. Trish: Why don't you just relax and go with the flow?Steve: Go with the flow? The whole system is a waste of my time. The clerks here should learn how to be more efficient, like in the U.S.Trish: What are you talking about? When I was in the U.S., the clerks were really rude.

Still, are you sure it meets all your needs? Maybe you should think about upgrading.Bob: you know me – the only things tat I need a computer for are e-mail and word processing.Andy: Yeah, but does it give you room to expand?

Another is to stop drinking alcohol. Do you drink?Julie: Well, I have a glass of wine with dinner, but I’m not an alcoholic. And I thought a little bit was supposed to be good for you anyway.Doctor: If you drink while you’re pregnant, your child could have birth defects. I cannot emphasize enough, Julie, the importance of quitting.Julie: Okay, then. What else is there?Doctor: Well, coffee.Julie: Do I have to give up everything I enjoy? I need coffee to wake me up in the morning.Doctor: I’m afraid, Julie, you’ll have to stop drinking that, too. Caff eine affects the baby’s heart rate. And, it’s also important to get regular exercise.Julie: You’re kidding! I have to quit smoking, stop drinking alcohol and coffee, and on top of all that, I have to start exercising? Boy, it is amazing thatanybody ever gets pregnant.Doctor: I really hope you’ll take this seriously, Julie.Unit11 Getting There is Half the FunScriptSue: Randy, what’s going on in this picture?

I told her, “We paid for the bus. You didn’t tell us to look for a van. Now you have to get us a taxi to Chiang Mai. Now.” And I started pointing at the clock. I think that was the last straw for the woman, because she started shouting. “You no go. You no go Chiang Mai!”She grabbed a ketchup bottle off the table you know, one of those plastic squirt ketchup bottles, and she squirted ketchup at me!Sue: No! She didn’t!Randy: Yeah! She did. And then she threw the bottle at me. And Tim snapped the picture. Just then the same van pulled up and the woman said, “Now you go.”Sue: So you got on the van.Randy: Yeah, we ended up at the bus terminal, where this big, air-conditioned tour bus was waiting to go to Chiang Mai. And all the people who had pushed ahead of us earlier were there, waiting to leave. I felt SO stupid for getting angry at the woman and making such a fool of myself.Sue: You must have felt terrible.Randy: Yeah, I wished there was some way I could go back and apologize to her. I realized that I have to be more patient, especially when I’m in another country.Unit 12 Real MoneyScriptEd: Are you worried about having enough money? Are you worried about paying your bills? Well, worry no more!Customer-1: I used to watch every penny. But now I’m worth four million dollars, and it’s all thanks to Steven Crowe!Customer-2: I used to get headaches from worrying about money. I had a lot of credit-card debt, and my mortgage payments were killing me. Then I got Steven Crowe’s videos, and learned how to make real money.Ed: “Real money.” That’s the name of this 3-video set by Steven Crowe. Let Steven show you how to become financially independent buying and selling real estate.Steven Crowe: Hi! I’m Steven Crowe. I used to worry about money, too. I felt like a victim of the system. But then I found a way to make the system work—for me.Ed: What’s the trick, Steven?Steven Crowe: There’s no trick, Ed. It’s simple, once you understand how real estate really works. All you need to know is how to buy low and sell high. And that’s exactly what my videos teach you to do.Ed: And you can get really rich?Steven Crowe: Just ask some people who have “Real Money.”Customer-1: After I got the “Real Money” videos, I bought my first house, following Steven’s simple rules. Six months later I sold it and bought two morehouses. A year after that, I had enough money to quit my job. Now I have more money than I’ll ever need, and it’s such a great feeling.Steven Crowe: I want you to have that feeling, too. And you can.Ed: Call now to order “Real Money.” 1-800-289-7325. That’s 1-800-BUY-REAL. Only three payments of $19.95 each, plus shipping and handling. All major credit cards welcome. Get it today, for a worry-free tomorrow! Results may vary.Unit 13 Never enough free time!ScriptLori: Oh, good, you’re here. Another bad commute today?Carrie: Yeah, sorry, I’m late. The stupid train was late again, and I missed my connection, and…gosh, I’m tired already, and the day hasn’t even started.Lori: How long is your commute?Carrie: Almost an hour and a half, on a good day. Three hours of my life every day, five days a week, you know. I’ve got to wake up at six in the morning just to make it in to work by nine or so. I feel like a techno-self.Lori: that is long. I can walk here in 15 minutes. But you know, at least your commute is green. You can look at the trees and small towns…it must be nice. Carrie: For the first 20 minutes yeah. But as soon as the train gets closer to the city, it is all concrete and steel. That’s when it starts to get really crowded. Today so many people were in the train that I felt like a sardine in a big sardine can.Lori: Well, you could always move closer to the office.Carrie: But I love living in the country. The air is so fresh and clean, and I can have a bigger place and it’s safe and all that. I just wish I had more time to enjoy it. Sometimes it seems like my whole life is get up early/take thetrain/work all day/take the train home/go to bed, and then wale up and do it all over again.Lori: Well, can’t you find a way to make the trip more worthwhile?Carrie: Well, I read the newspaper and sometimes I bring a book, but I don’t really enjoy it.Lori: How about audiotapes or CDs? There’re novels or language learning tapes, relaxation tapes, relaxation tapes , all kinds of stuff on tape and CD. Carrie: Yeah, good idea, maybe I’ll look into it. Anything will be better thancomplaining about this commute all the time.Lori: Yeah, that’s for sure!Unit 14 Disaster!ScriptAnna: Margaret, what’s the scariest thing that ever happened to you? Margaret: The scariest thing? Surviving the San Jose earthquake.Anna: You were in the San Jose earthquake? Tell me what happened. Margaret: Well, I was living in an apartment downtown with my friend Julia. And we were still sleep on a Tuesday morning, and a little after six o’clock, there was this horrible sound and the floor was just bouncing and rolling like waves, all at the same time.Anna: Oh my gosh! What did you do?Margaret: well, it took a second or two to figure out what was going on—that it was an earthquake. Then I climbed out of bed and under the table, and I shouted at Julia to come, but she just pulled the covers over her head like it was a bad dream or something.Anna: Whoa!Margaret: It lasted 24 seconds, and then it stopped. And Julia and I could hear people talking outside, so we tried to go out the front door , but it was jammed shut. And then the first aftershock hit.Anna: That must have been horrifying!Margaret: Well, I remember that someone shouted, “Get out of there, quickly!” And we shouted back, “We can’t! The door won’t open.” So they said, “Well, come out the window.” But I called out, “it’s too high up,” because we were living on the second floor. “Not any more,” the person shouted back. So, we looked out the window and , sure enough, we were down on the ground! Anna: Your second floor apartment was on the ground?Margaret: We couldn’t believe it. We opened the wind ow and crawled out, and somebody helped us over all this rubble. Once we were down safely, we turned around and looked back at our apartment building. The whole first floor was gone—it was just totally flattened. And then Julia looked at me and said, “Margaret. Mr. Sanchez!” He was this elderly man who lived on the first floor. Anna: Oh, no. How horrible!Margaret: Yeah. Julia and I both just burst into tears. He never had a chance.Unit 15 Who needs advice?ScriptDr. Monroe: This is Dr. Ellen Monroe on Love Talk. This is the part of the show where we listen to our callers’ advice. Tonight we have Sunhee, a woman with a love problem. Sunhee, tell us about your problem.Sunhee: I’m from a Korean family, and I’m in love with a man from India that I met here in the U.S.Dr. Monroe: Okay, and…Sunhee: He’s asked me to marry him, and I said yes.Dr. Monroe: So what is the problem?Sunhee: It’s my parents. They’re very traditional, so I’m afraid of telling them that I’m engaged. I’m worried that they won’t let me marry him.Dr. Monroe: Hmm.Sunhee: I can’t go against my parents’ will, but this is the man I want to marry. Dr. Monroe: Hmm. That’s Sunhee’s problem, folks. Now, what’s your advice toher?Sunhee: Hello. What’s your advice for our worried friend?Carla: Hello. I’m Carla, from Canada, and I married a Chinese man five years ago. When I first told my parents I wanted to marry a foreigner with different religious beliefs, they were very angry. You see, they’re very traditional. They’ve always expected me to marry someone Canadian, from the same religious background.Dr. Monroe: Then what happened?Carla: For four years, they hardly talked to me, and they never came to visit us. it was like they disowned me…Dr. Monroe: Four years, you say. After four years something changed? Carla: Yes. When our little girl was born, I sent my parents a picture of her, and wrote, “Your granddaughter would like to see you.” A week later they called, and a month after that they came to see us – well, they came to see my daughter, any-way. Now they’re trying –they still aren’t comfortable with my husband, but they’re trying to understand him.Dr. Monroe: So, what’s your advice?Carla: Don’t give in to tradition. Marry the person you love. But have your first child soon – d on’t wait four years like I did. That’s too long to be divided from your parents.Dr. Monroe: Sounds like good advice to me.Unit 16 Fixing up the placeScriptSarah: You know, Richard, I really think we ought to fix up our apartment a little. Richar d: What for? What’s wrong with it the way it is?Sarah: Are you kidding? It’s so empty.Richard: Come on. A room is just a room. Why do we have to fill it up with a bunch of junk? Besides, it costs money.Sarah: Well, it doesn’t have to be that expensive. I know this really neat little thrift store around the corner. We can go there and get a few simple things, just make it feel like a home.Richard: A few things? Oh, man, this is going to cost money.Sarah: it doesn’t have to cost a lot.Richard: Why can’t we just leave it the way it is? I like it. I feel comfortable here. You start putting a lot of nice things around and it’s going to be a museum. Sarah: But, Richard, we’re not the only ones that are going to be here. We want to have friends over, you kno w, have people over to study. They’ve got to have places to sit.Richard: Hey, that’s a good idea. We could get a couple of psychedelic postersand a lava lamp. Get a black light. Crank up the stereo. We could have cool parties here.Sarah: Parties, Richard? Richard, we are not going to have any time to party. We are going to be way too busy studying. That's what we’re in college for! Richard: College is about having parties about having friends over. I don’t want something that looks like my parents’ house.Sarah: Look. It doesn’t have to look like your parents’ house. We just need a few simple things like chairs. Maybe some plants you know, it’ll just make it nice and homey.Richard: Homey? Okay, I’m not looking for homey. I’m a college student. Sarah: At this rate, we’re never going to find anything that we both like. Richard: Yeah, well, at least we can agree on that.Unit 17 Losing someoneScriptWhitney: Welcome to Life’s Concerns. I’m your host, Whitney Opal. Today our program is about dealing with loss. One of the hardest things in together. Mr. Clayton Hayes is here today to share his story. Thank you for joining us, Mr. Hayes.Clayton: Call me Clayton, please.Whitney: Okay, Clayton. I’d like to ask you a few questions about how you’re managing. Is that okay?Clayton: Yes, that’s fine. I can talk about it.Whitney: All right, well, your wife passed away two years ago – is that correct? Clayton: Yep. Maggie was 79, just about to turn 80 when she passed away. I never really expected her to go. She was still too young.Whitney: I’m sorry. Do you mind telling us how she died?Clayton: Cancer. She had it for about a year, but it seemed longer than that to me. And she was in so much pain at the end. Oh.Whitney: I’m really sorry. That must have been ve ry difficult for you. Clayton: Yeah. At the end, there, you could tell she just wanted it to be over. She tried to keep up a cheerful face for me , but you can’t hide things from someone you’ve been married to for 56 years, you know.Whitney: I’m sure that’s true. You get to know someone pretty well in 56 years, don’t you?Clayton: Oh, you bet you do. You share so many years of your life withsomeone, and when they’re gone, oh, there’s a big hole that no one can fill up. You just feel lonely. Very, very lonely.Whitney: I imagine you have some wonderful memories, as well.Clayton: Oh, yeah. We had a lot of good times, Maggie and me. Oh, boy, the stories I could tell!Whitney: Well, Clayton, you sure do have a lot of memories from your time with Maggie to celebrate!Clayton: Yeah, I sure do.Whitney: I think it’s important to remember that when we lose someone close to us, we don’t lose those memories. The person is still us in that way.Unit 18 How can I help you?ScriptCustomer: Excuse me, ma’am.Clerk: Yeah? How can I help you?Customer: I’d like to exchange this shirt. It has a flaw… it’s stained right overhere.Clerk: Let me see it …Yep, there’s a stain all right. How’d that happen?

What was it that you wanted again? To exchange it? Customer: I want to speak to the manager.Clerk: Fine. Whatever. Dee! A customer wants to talk to you.Manager: How can I be of assistance?Customer: Well, I came in planning to exchange a shirt-and it has a stain, see…Manager: Yes.Customer: But I was treated so rudely by this person, I just want my money back. I’m not shopping here anymore.Manager: Well, I’m very sorry about any problems there may have been. Can you tell me what happened?Customer: She accused me of staining this shirt.Clerk: Hey, I was just trying to make sure…Manager: Um, why don’t you go to my office and wait for me.

But, we’d really like to keep you as a customer and I’d be g lad to exchange this item for you, or give you a full refund, whichever you’d like.Customer: Mmm, I don’t know.

We’ve got lots of soda…half a submarine sandwich…cheese! We’ve got that…oh, it’s kind of moldy, though. Tony: Kind of? It’s green! Do we have and chill?Rob: Sorry, man, I think I ate it the other night.Tony: That wasn’t yours. Anyway, I had a coupla cans.

They’re just trying to intimidate each other.David: It’s kind of scary, though, isn’t it?Nehal: I’m used to it by now. They’ve been threatening each other my wholelife.David: But why?Nehal: They’ve been fighting abou t Kashmir. They disagree about who controls Kashmir.David: Yeah? What is it that’s so important about Kashmir any way? I mean, why? Why do India and Pakistan care so much about Kashmir?Nehal: Actually, they don’t care about Kashmir.David: Huh? What do you mean?Nehal: No. All India and Pakistan care about is fighting with each other. Each one wants to have more power than the other.David: So why do they keep talking about Kashmir?Nehal: It’s just an excuse.David: still, I don’t like it when they start playing with nuclear weapons. Maybe the U.N. should get involved.Nehal: Ah, yes. Their usual role as the great peace keeper.David: Don’t you think the U.N. could resolve this problem?Nehal: I don’t think so. The U.N. doesn’t need to get involved in oth er countries’ business. It has enough problems of its own.。

My advice is to follow your bliss. It means to follow a course in life that is most exciting and challenging for you and to follow a direction that brings you the greatest personal satisfaction.Do you know the story of King Arthur’s knights? When they set out on their quest for the Holy Grail, each set out alone. Each entered the woods at the deepest, darkest point, where there was no way or path. If there is a well-worn path, it is someone else’s path, not yours. There was a man who was determined to become a public servant. He ran for legislature and lost. He ran for Congress and lost. He ran for the Senate twice and lost both times. After all these failures, he even tried for a political appointment as a state land officer, something like a Justice of the Peace, and he was flatly rejected. Yet this guy held to his vision of public service, and in 1860 was elected President of the United States. The man, of course, was Abraham Lincoln.Look at this guy. At 40, he tried to establish two car companies. Both went bankrupt, and he was flat broke. Yet the automobile was his bliss. By 50, he was the world’s leading automaker, and was well on his way to becoming the first billionaire. That man was Henry Ford. Consider the baseball player who held the record for many years as having struck out more than any ball player in history. In his career, he struck out 1 330 times. Yet what we remember about Babe Ruth is not the 1 330 times he failed, but the 714 times he hit a home run.Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison, Edgar Allen Poe and Shelly were all expelled from school at one point. People are stumbling while following their bliss. Where you stumble, stop and smile, for there your treasure may lie.Real World Listening1.

They are discussing Coach’s suggestion of going to the Olympics as a team.Claudia: Hey, are you okay? Toshio, you seem upset. I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings in there. It’s just that--Toshio: Don’t be ridiculous. I can accept the switch. Well, just for the record, I think this is a crazy idea. It’ll never work. I don’t know why I let Coach talk me into it. I’m only here to get back in shape.Claudia: You seem in pretty good shape to me. There doesn’t seem to be much wrong with the way you move on the ice.Toshio: Glad you noticed.Claudia: What’s the deal with hockey? Why can’t you go back?Toshio: It’s a long story. I don’t want to talk about it.Claudia: I’m sorry I asked.Toshio: What I don’t understand is why you are doing this. I mean, isn’t it better to get to the Olympics as a solo performer? You seem the type who wants the limelight all to yourself.Claudia: Coach just told me I won’t get to the Olympics as a solo skater. I can’t do the triple toe loop. My legs aren’t strong enough. And Coach doesn’t think I’ll ever nail it. So I can’t follow my real dream anymore -- just like you can’t follow your hockey dreams.Toshio: So we’re both failures, then. Maybe we really do belong together.Claudia: Speak for yourself. I don’t consider myself a failure. I’m just changing directions. That’s all. I intend to get to the Olympics by any means necessary.Toshio: But I never planned to take this figure skating seriously.Claudia: Coach said you had talent, that you should try it out.Toshio: Well, maybe it’s okay for girls. But guys don’t figure skate-- not real guys. They do stuff like football and hockey.Claudia: Are you willing to give it a try, Toshio? Let’s just work together and see if it’s right for both of us. And if we stick to it, perhaps we can compete against the best.。

Cyber café will soon be replaced by mobile phones with high-speed Internet access.ScriptKept within a few clicks of hearth and homeIn Rome, you can read your email while your dirty clothes wash, soak and dry in machines beside you. In Helsinki, you can surf the Web while still sweating from a simmer in a nearby sauna. Some people travel to sample the finest of foreign cuisines. Some seek sublime art to appreciate or sacred architecture to celebrate. Me, I‟ve come to think of myself as an international connoisseur of Internet café.In my past five months overs eas, I‟ve surfed the information superhighway in Swaziland, driven the data expressway in Estonia and cruised the communication causeway in Croatia. And I can say this: Gone are the days when postcards were the preferred method of making those at home envious of your adventures abroad. Set foot on the road to faraway places and you‟ll soon find that cyber café are an inescapable part of the contemporary travel experience.Just ask Michelle Amundson from Attleboro, Mass. I found this 23-year-old parked in front of a flat-screen monitor at Big Net café --the biggest Internet caféin Vienna 行exchanging love notes with her boyfriend back home. Michelle has been on vacation 10 days and has emailed him every one of them. Think of myself: My (much) better half is traveling with me and still of the 35 cities we‟ve visited thus far, I‟ve used cyber café in precisely 71.4 percent of them.When I left the US, I vowed I wouldn‟t eat at a single McDonald‟s no matter how cheap and soothingly familiar the food might be. I‟ve stayed true to that promise. But I admit when I slip into an Internet café I feel just a wee bit like I‟m taking a bite of a Big Mac.I comfort myself, however, with the discovery that no two cyber café are alike. It‟s hard to know where to begin in Prague, a city suffering a particularly virulent strain of cyber café-itis. At The Globe you can surf the Net while listening to a jazz trio. At Bohemian Bagel you can order up the namesake roll and a cup of joe along with a side of cyber crack. And at Krakat it, a “science fiction ” café you can surf the Web surrounded by pictures of dragons and spaceships and robots, oh my.Some people predict that cyber café, like postcards, will soon find themselves a relic as mobile phones with high-speed Internet access r eplace them as the new traveler‟s darling. That means no matter where we are we‟ll always have the World Wide Web in our pocket. And no matter where we are, we‟ll never be more than a button press (or two) from the comforts of home.Real World Listening1. PredictAnswer□ He is an exchange student living with a host family.2.

Japan2. it‟s the first time he came to the United States3. they wanted to broaden their children‟s horizons4. science and historyScript and Answers to Self-studyOpen to everythingAnchor: Believe it or not, we are seeing many foreign students in our town. We‟re interested in their life and study here. Today we‟ve invited the administrative specialist for foreign exchange Jeff Hein, a host mother Teri Benedetti, and an exchange student Aki to join our talk. Mr. Hein, why do so many foreign students come to our town?Jeff Hein:: They arrive here through programs operated by nonprofit placement services. Most of them are here because they know someone here and are able to live with them. Or, their parents have done work here and had met someone, and the young people live with those families. It‟s especially true for our high schools.Anchor: Where are they from?Jeff Hein:: They‟re from Australia, China, Korea, Thailand and the Philippines.Anchor: Aki, where are you from and how did you come here?Aki: I‟m from Korea. I‟ve visited the United States on vacation twice before. I want to do something else after 10 years of schooling back home. I learned about World Heritage at my school in Korea and I applied and this program arranged my stay here.Anchor: Mrs. Benedetti, how did you come upon the idea of hosting a foreign student?Teri Benedetti: My husband and I applied to host an exchange student partly to broaden our children‟s horizons. It‟s good for our children to know the United States is not the only country in the world, and that everyone has the same feelings inside, but we live in different cultures.Anchor: How did your children feel about living with a foreign student?Teri Benedetti: They were really very excited about having a new older brother. It offers them a great opportunity to be exposed to another lifestyle and another language.Anchor: Mr. Hein, what do the foreign students learn here in our schools?Jeff Hein:: They‟re held to the same academic standards as any other student here. They‟re required to be proficient in English and take a course load that includes math, reading, English, science and history classes. But the credits they earn here don‟t necessarily transfer back to their home schools. As a result, the time exchange students spend here often amounts to a year off of their studies. So this year is basically language practice and learning American culture.Anchor: Are exchange students welcome in our schools?Jeff Hein:: Certainly. Learning is a two-way street. Our students learn as much from the international students as they learn from us. They all deal with many of the same things, even though they‟re from different cultures and different lands.Anchor: Aki, what do you particularly want to do here?Aki: Just to see the country and another culture. I‟m open to everything.Unit 3 Y ou are what you wearV ocabulary TaskScript and Answers1. A: You look great recently.B: Thank you.

An opportunity for individuality/ independence vanishes.2. No.3. Through the clothing he or she wears.4. Clothes should be carefully chosen so as not to reveal what is within.5. Clothing can help older people feel better about themselves and present a positive image to those around them.ScriptClothes make the man“Clothes make the man? runs the old proverb. If you believe that, you might feel that clothing enhances appearance, increases independence, allows for function, and provides comfort. What‟s more, clothing that is neat and clean, fits well, and feels good can boost anyone‟s morale.People express their personality in many ways, including through their clothing, hair style, and accessories. That‟s why clothes often define the person. Clothes can indicate personality, status, and attitude to life. A man may have worn a beard all his life, a woman may have worn makeup. If t heir ability to choose their appearance is taken away, then an opportunity for independence/individuality vanishes. Keeping some familiar clothes and personal articles helps them retain some sense of self-control over what is happening. Research shows that when a woman dresses for success, it does not guarantee success, but if she dresses poorly or inappropriately, it almost always ensures failure.Our clothes are very much part of our personality. Clothing protects people from humidity, heat, and cold, and helps them feel physically comfortable. Clothing at the same time gives the wearer a sense of well-being. It tells something about the person. Clothing also affects the way others see, think of, and react to the person. A person can be comfortable or uncomfortable wearing a certain garment or type of clothing in a social situation. Social comfort may be involved when a person wishes to “make animpression” through the clothing he or she wears. So, clothes should be carefully chosen so as not to reveal what is within.Before making choices about clothing, it is important to understand how clothing affects people. For example, making decisions about clothing can increase older people‟s sense of independence and help them feel better about themselves. The ster eotype says older people don‟t care about their appearance. But, research shows that most older people think of themselves as younger than they are, their sense of fashion reflects their youthful thinking and the fashion of earlier years when they were younger, and they like clothing that looks good on them. Clothing can help older people feel better about themselves and present a positive image to those around them. Sending positive appearance messages may increase older people‟s opportunities for social i nteraction.Real World Listening1. PredictAnswer□ The outfits she should take along for her trip.1.

This is the kind of questions that plague me these days---days in which a trip to the ladies‟ room has a good chance of leaving m e standing before two doors, utterly baffled as to which one I‟m expected to walk through.My husband, Richie and I are in the midst of a trip around the world. The journey has taken us to 14 countries thus far, and in only one did we speaker the language, that was England. We left home in December believing wholeheartedly that one of the great joys of traveling would be encountering people who speak in exotic dialects. I have to admit, however, the constant language barrier has been, at times, acutely frustrating.Trying to determine which toilet is the women‟s versus the men‟s in each new country has been just the tip of a much larger and more befuddling iceberg. On a typical day, I understand the people around me as much as the average mutt understands hi s owner. If I‟m lucky, I compensate for my ignorance by smiling and wagging my tail a lat.With time, however, Richie and I have come to enjoy the ongoing challenge our lack of linguistic endowments provides. It helps that we now think of our lives as a 24-hour game of charades. In this version of the game, there‟s only one required skill: an absolute willingness to make a complete ass of ourselves in front of total strangers.For instance, in trying to explain to a street vendor in Prague that I wanted a chicken sandwich.

What‟s kept you rushing around?B: I‟m shaping up for another storm chasing. This is the best season of storms. I can‟t miss it.Listening TaskScriptFreak weather incidentsIf your weather forecaster said it would rain frogs you might think they had gone mad. But rains of fish or frogs or other animals have been reported for centuries. On August 8, 2000 (1) a shower of dead but still fresh sprats rained down on the fishing port of Great Yarmouth, in Norfolk, England, (2) after a thunderstorm. The fish shower would have been caused by a small tornado out to sea, which (3) trawls up water and any fish near the surface. When the tornado touches the land it begins to lose energy and (4) its contents are thrown to the ground.(5) In June 1997 it rained toads in the town of Villa Angel Flores in Mexico. A small tornado whirled up (6) a cluster of toads from a local body of water Saturday night and dropped them over the town. Motorists reported them dropping from the sky around 11 p.m. In March 1998, it rained frogs in Croydon, England. A woman reported the sudden appearance of hundreds of dead frogs in her and her neighbors' gardens when there was no known pond or lake (7) in the immediate vicinity.Over the years all sorts of animals and plants have showered down during thunderstorms, possibly (8) sucked up from rivers and lakes by tornadoes into thunderclouds and then dumped miles away in heavy rain. Tornadoes pick up anything they find in their path but some scientists think that many animals of the same type or size may fall during a storm because as the wind travels, (9) heavier items will fall first. Then when the smaller items drop from the tornado, things that (10) tend to weigh the same will drop together.Dozens of dead birds have occasionally been (11) seen plummeting out of the sky, sometimes partly frozen. These poor animals were probably swept up high in the powerful updrafts of a thundercloud, then frozen like hailstones before (12) gravity took over. Even stranger is a severe hailstorm in Vicksburg, USA where a gopher turtle entirely encased in ice, fell with the hail.Other objects can rain out of the sky. In July 4, 1995 people in Keokuk, Iowa found soft drink cans that a tornado had lifted from the Double Cola Bottling Plant in Moberly and dropped about 150 miles north. Perhaps most bizarre are the “rains of blood” which have been reported all over the world (13) ever since biblical times. An important clue to their cause came in July 1968 in southern England, when a shower coated everything (14) in red gritty dust. It was fine sand blown up from the Sahara and carried over a thousand miles inside (15) a massive high pressure system before falling in a rain shower. In some dry areas, “dust devils”(dust storms) are very common with d ebris falling out of the sky.Real World ListeningScriptBeing a meteorologistQ: Ilona, what made you want to become a meteorologist? When did you know?A: I knew I wanted to become a meteorologist after seeing my first tornado. I was working at a radio station one afternoon when I saw a tornado heading right for me. Luckily, the tornado missed the radio station, but seeing it up close made me want to learn more about weather.Q: What weather person influenced you most and why?A: When I was in 6th grade, one of the local weathercasters, Ward Allen, came to visit my school. I still have the signed picture he gave me! It's framed and hanging on the wall at my house.Q: What do you like best about doing the weather?A: What I like most about forecasting weather in Central Texas is that we can see so many different types of weather ... tornadoes, flooding, and even ice & snow! It keeps things very exciting in our weather office.Q: What is your favorite weather event?A: My favorite kind of weather is weather that changes all of the time! I like it to be sunny one day, cloudy the next, then hot, then cold, then rainy, then dry!Q: What do you like to do on a rainy day?A: I like to sit on the porch and just listen to the sound of the rain falling through the trees and splashing on the ground. When the weather turns stormy, it's my job to make sure everyone knows what to expect and how to stay safe.Q: What do you like to do on a sunny day?A: I enjoy being outdoors bike riding or swimming at the pool or lake.Q: Have you ever been involved in a scary weather event? What did you do?A: I will never forget the night my mom, my grandmother, and I flew back from Europe. We were on our way home to Phoenix and there was a really bad storm over the Airport. The pilot had no choice but find the safest part to fly through and land. The whole plane was rocking side to side and was completely lit up by the lightning. I was holding on to the seat so tightly. My knuckles were white!Q: It seems meteorologists dress depending on the weather. Do you wear certain colors, outfits, depending on what kind of day it is going to be?A: You bet ... the less black during the spring and summer the better.

He scored 20 points in a game against last year‟s world champion LA Lakers, and 30 points against the Dallas Mavericks.ScriptYao Ming makes the gradeWith the first overall pick in the 2002 NBA Draft, the Houston Rockets selected Chinese center Yao Ming. He becomes the first-ever number one pick to come from an international basketball league.Even before he was chosen as the NBA‟s number one draft pick by the Houston Rockets, Yao Ming faced intense media pressure and many critics. Many doubted whether the Chinese superstar would be able to make it in the NBA. Some thought he was not strong enough to handle the physical play around the net. Former NBA all-star Charles Barkley said that he would kiss a TV announcer‟s behind if Yao ever scored more than 20 points in a single game.“This is the most pressure I‟ve ever faced in my life, but it‟s something I have to deal with,” said Yao.Before coming to the NBA, the 2.26 meter-tall and 134 kg center was the dominant player in the Chinese Basketball Association. As a 17-year-old rookie, he averaged 10.0 points and 8.3 rebounds during the 1997-1998 season. Yao has played against elite international talent since being named to the Chinese National Team at age 18. At the 2001 Asian Basketball Championship for men, Yao averaged 13.4 points on 724 shots with 10.1 rebounds and 2.8 blocked shots, helping the Chinese national team win the title, and was voted to the All-star team at the 2002 World Championship.For a man his size, Yao is surprisingly agile. He is also an excellent shooter and passes well. But his first games in the NBA were less than impressive, with Yao leaving the floor early because of foul trouble.But after he scored 20 points in a game against last year‟s world champion LA Lakers, then 30 points against the Dallas Mavericks, his critics were silenced and Barkley was forced to kiss a donkey on TV. With performances like these, it seems like Yao Ming is just starting to feel comfortable in the NBA.Among the first overall selection in NBA history, Yao stands as the tallest and second-heaviest players ever. Upon entering the NBA, Yao will become the third Chinese player in NBA history, following fellow Chinese National Team members Wang Zhizhi and Mengke Bateer.Real World Listening1.

When describing their dream homestay, they talk about their homestay “mums” attending to their needs because they pay good money to be looked after. They also expect their homestay family to be pleasant and happy all the time so they need never feel unhappy and lonely.A homestay is not like staying in a hotel or hostel, where service workers are paid to be courteous and cheerful in order to make guests feel at home. Although students pay for their board and lodging, it is wrong to expect the homestay family to serve guests the same way hostels and hotels do. Homestay hosts provide this service for social or cultural reasons rather than to make money.In a homestay family, an international student is a member of the family, not a customer who is “king” or always right. You can‟t order room service or throw wet towels and dirty clothes around. If you are a homestay student, you are expected to follow house rules, which might include taking care of your own room as well as tidying up after yourself inthe kitchen, bathroom or other rooms you might use.As a homestay guest, you need to be independent and to develop your own interests rather than depend on your hosts to keep you happy and entertained. Your hosts have their own jobs and responsibilities and you must learn to be independent. You need to develop your own friends in the college or through social clubs. Burying yourself totally in books, with no time for a social life, is emotionally and mentally unhealthy and will make you homesick as well.You can‟t always expect your homestay family to be on their best behavior all the time. Just as in your own home, there might be misunderstandings, squabbles and stress. Homestay famil ies might quarrel over money, children‟s performance, too much work time and too little family time -- things your own family probably quarrels about. Problems might arise because of you. Perhaps you are doing something that annoys the family. But bear in mind that even if you are a perfect guest, your presence as a stranger in an intimate family setting is bound to cause some tensions. If it is something you can correct, do so and apologize. Know when your homestay dad and mum want some privacy to themselves and give them the space and time.One last piece of advice: Don‟t talk negatively about your homestay family to your college mates or friends. Negative talk puts you in a negative mood and implies that you do not value people. People are never perfect and need to be respected regardless of their shortcomings.Real World Listening1.

At that time, it was believed that if a mother with the RH negative blood factor delivered a dead first baby, it was considered (2) a 100% certainty that the second baby would also die. This was the mother‟s second baby and the first one had died. Death was expected soon. This was a case where such babies (3) were set aside to die. And so had this one.The doctor had not ordered a feeding tube inserted so I asked for permission to (4) feed the baby by dropper because it was too weak to suck.

During my adolescent years I was strangely attracted to losers and oddballs. My parents couldn’t believe the bizarre specimens of boyhood that I regularly dragged home.One of my first “romances” was with greasy-haired David, whose drug problem did not go down too well with my family members. So why did David seem so attractive to me? Simple, my parents strongly disapproved of him.There is nothing new, of course, in parental disapproval of teenage love interests. Nor is there anything new in teenagers falling in love with the biggest losers around. Adolescent girls with eccentric boyfriends are essentially screaming out to their parents, “if you can’t accept that I’m old enough to make my own decisions, I’ll just have to prove it to you in a way that you are sure to notice? So why do parents fail to realize that the more they oppose unsuitable boyfriends, the more their daughters will pick them out? After all, did my mother really think that in my heart of hearts I truly fancied the losers? Had she simply smiled and said sweetly, “What a darling boy. Let’s invite him round for Sunday lunch”, he would have been given the boot in no time.It is bad enough bringing home a complete loser, but when you date someone twice your age it is guaranteed to push family relations to the limit. The parents of Mary Russell encountered this when their 16-year-old daughter entered into a relationship with her 32-year-old teacher. “There were a lot of arguments between her and me and her dad about it not being right,”said Mrs. Russell. Surprisingly, despite all the fights, Mary’s parents failed to dissuade their daughter from dating her older teacher and, following a bitter court case, the lovesick couple are now back in each other’s arms.In my case, my parents wisely switched to a more wily way of attempting to get rid of boyfriends whom they felt were inappropriate. Indeed, by the time I’d reached 17 and had my first serious boyfriend, there were no more arguments. Nor were there any obvious signs of dislike. They tried an approach that they thought would be far more effective than verbal condemnation 行they invited him to a boring family get-together.Now I realize my mother’s initial disapproval of my teenage romances is a universal feeling. Parents want children to fulfill their own dreams. Their hopes were fairly normal: they wanted to witness my wedding vows; they wanted to see their daughter settled down in a well-established family; they wanted me to get married and have kids.Real World Listening1.

They shoulder a great part of the responsibility for the growth of the child. In terms of law, parents are the legitimate guardians of their child. They have the right to give their child proper guidance. The young cannot tell right from wrong. It will be harmful if parents let things drift. On the other hand, if parents are too deeply involved into their child’s personal business, it will worsen the parent-child relationship. Inappropriate ways of interference in a child’s life may ruin the harmonious family life.Parents and children need patient communication, instead of cold war, to close the generation gap. Since many factors may contribute to that phenomenon, the two sides should make joint efforts to overcome it.。
