So now I am not sure I will be qualified to graduate next semester. I know I would, before, under the old requirements.Professor: Well, when the business department changed the curriculum to include more courses in international business, to ... well, because of the increasing globalization of business. We made sure that students who have finished their second year, that is, those who are in their third or fourth year, wouldn't be affected. The new rules only apply to students in their first or second year.Student: That's good to know. Uh... the department's hiring new faculty too I heard, to teach some of the new courses.

And ... and I am planning to take a management course next semester, but I don't know if it's ... if it will count toward my major.Professor: What's the course?Student: Organizational Behavior.Professor: Yes. That will count toward your major. That's a difficult class, you know. But well worth it. So it looks like you will have all the required classes you need. You should be just fine. Uh... I assume you have taken a seminar?Student: Yeah, I took the marketing seminar.Professor: OK. You are looking good. Just to be on the safe side, why don't you talk to someone in the dean's office before you give them the form?Student: OK. So should I just explain to them that even though one of these classes got changed from an elective to a required class, I don't have to take it?Professor: Yes. You've met the requirements for graduation. And if there's something I need to do ... if I need to write a letter or whatever, just let me know.Student: OK. Thanks. I'll let you know if I need that letter.托福TPO25听力Conversation1题目1.What is the conversation mainly about?A. The student’s eligibility to graduate ne xt semester.B.

How about this?［3-second beep at about 17.4 kHz］Teacher: If you couldn’t hear the first one, it means you're not a dog!［Laugh］Dogs can hear very high frequency频率sounds, but people can't. And if you could hear the second one, you're younger than 25Student: Wow! Why is that?Teacher: Our ears change when we get older. Children and young people can hear the second one, but most people older than 25 can’tConversation 2Teachers: Todays topic is “Should teenagers date” Team A, please begin. Team A: We say no, they shouldn’t. One reason is that teenagers are too young. They should think about schoolwork and spend more time studying .Team B: We don’t agree with Team A. Our answer is “Yes”. Teenagers can date if they want. It is quite natural for a teenager at that age to feel he or she likes somebody. We think it's possible for teenagers to date and study at the same time.Teacher: Team A?Conversation 3Julie: Hi, Adam! Are you going to join a club?Adam: Hi, Julie!

Its name s Machu Picchu. It's sometimes called the Lost City ofthe Inca, and it's nearly 8,000 feet up in the Andes.Julio:It's a magic attraction that you can feel it here. It's known all over the world that Machu Picchu is one of the magnetic centres of the ancient world . Narrator: Machu Picchu is more than 500 years old. Today, it's a favourite place for visitors from all over the world. Even in the rain and fog, it's wonderful towalk through the ruins When the Inca civilisation ended, few people knewMachu Picchu existed. For a long time it was lost to the outside world.Then, in 1911, an explorer called Hiram Bingham found itNarrator: At first, very few people visited Machu Picchu. But now, hundreds of tourists come here every day. They walk up the steps of the ancient city andclimb over the ruins. Machu Picchu is no longer quiet. It's full of thesounds of tourists. Some people in Peru hope that more tourists will comehere. They think it will mean more business and money for the country.However, some conservationists worry that more visitors won't be good forMachu Picchu. They say that tourism may not be good for the environment *Video TimeThe Karsts of China: A Vertical JourneyTravelling through China is really one of the more unique travel experiences that I’ve had It's got one of the most diverse landscapes that I've ever experienced.These ancient karst formations have been sculpted by wind and water and millions of years of erosion into these beautiful natural sculptures.As a rock climber, you look at these rock formations and you can’t help but be inspired. For me, it's important not just to go and see these amazing landscapes but to interact with them. To get to climb on them is just the experience of the lifetime.The stone here offers up gymnastic, athletic movement but it can also be very adventurous, sometimes dangerous, but always beautiful. This is what we love to do----to come to these beautiful natural areas and climb and explore and push ourselves mentally and physically.China is relatively unexplored and new to climbers and to adventurers who want to go out and see something new and spectacular.These limestone karsts are some of the most beautiful rock formations in the world. You go into a landscape like this and it affects you and it changes you as a person. It inspires you. As a climber, that's really the biggest part of it. It’s something that I'll carry with me for the rest of my lifeUnit 3 Sports and Fitness Listening and speaking CONVERSATION 1S-Shen Qi A=AmyS: Hi, Amy! Did you hear that there’s an e-sports event this weekend?A: No, I didn’t! What’re e-sports?S: Well, e-sports are sports you play with a computer, like computer games.A: Those aren’t real sports, are they?S: Yes, they are. Many people play and watch e-sports. I’ve been waiting for this event for a long time. Would you like to come along?A: Really? I’d love to! Where is it?S: It's in the new stadium. Why don't you join us this Saturday afternoon.A: Oh, sorry. I can’t. I have to meet my badminton coach.S: Oh, that s too badCONVERSATION 2A=Adam J=JulieA: Hey, Julie. What’re you doing this weekend? There is a "Blue Paint" run on Saturday afternoon.J: What is a "Blue Paint" run? Is it a marathon?A No, it’s not a marathon. It’s just a fun run that helps the community. You pay 20dollars to run five kilometers. That sounds like fun doesn’t it?J: Er… no, it sounds tiring! But why is it called a “Blue Paint” run?A: That’s the fun part. People can buy water balloons filled with blue paint and throw them at the runners. The balloons cost 5 dollars each and the money goes to help poor people. Would you like to go?J: That sounds like a great idea! You can run, and I'll throw the paint!Listening and talkingC=cao Jing M=max L=LilyC: Hi, Lily. Hi, Max. You saw the race yesterday, didn’t you?M: Hello, Cao Jing. No, I didn’t. What happened?C: Two girls were on the final lap. They had nearly finished the race and had only a hundred metres to go, when one of the girls fell and couldn’t get up.L: Oh, my! So the other girl won, did she?C. No. that's what was so cool. She stopped and helped the other girl finish the race. M: What? Why did she do that?C: I think she thought it was the right thing to do. It's more important to help each other than to win.L: I don't agree. If someone falls during a race, that's too bad, it's just part of the race. M: Exactly! If you've practised hard for the race, you should do your best to winC: I don’t agree. Winning isn’t always the most important thing.L: But that doesn't make any sense. What if an athlete is competing for her country?She should think about the fans and the honour.C: I see what you mean. But I still don’t think that you’re right. Helping others should always come first.Unit 4 Natural DisastersListening and SpeakingNews report 1Good morning, it's 17 April. A strong earthquake hit Ecuador yesterday. The7.8-magnitude earthquake damaged many buildings, and early reports said that about 230 people were killed and more than 1, 500 were injured. V olunteers and rescue workers are helping the survivorsNews report 2Good evening. Today is 27 March. More news about the floods in central China. The government is helping more than 12,000 people in Hunan and Jiangxi get away from the rising water. Homes and land have been destroyed, but no one has been killed. Rescue workers and soldiers are working day and night to make sure that people are safe. They are also bringing food and water to those whose homes were lost in the disaster.News report 3Breaking news, Saturday 12 August. A tornado was just seen in southern Memphis. Eyewitnesses said that at 9: 25 a.m., the tornado destroyed four homes. A police officer tells us that at least one person has died. More tornados are possible, and the police advise avoiding the area.News report 4And in Seoul, a landslide damaged a library and a supermarket in a southern neighbourhood. The landslide was caused by the heavy rain that has fallen in Seoul over the past week. According to the police no one was injured in the landslide, but several cars were damaged. Those are the top news for today, Wednesday 21 July.Listening and TalkingTeacher: Thank you, Mrs Fors. That was a great presentation! Class, do youhave any questions for Mrs Fors?Student 1:Mrs Fors, I think you're a hero. And Lucky is very cute, I’d like to know what we can do to prevent natural disasters.Ms Fors:Well, there's no way to prevent earthquakes and storms. But if we prepare, we can keep them from becoming disasters that kill or injure people. To be ready, we should make a safety list of what to do,where to go, and who to contact.Student 1: So what should we do if there's an earthquake?Ms Fors: Remember to "d rop, cover, and hold on" Drop down onto your hands and knees, cover your head with your hands, and stay away from glass, windows, or anything that could fall. You could find cover under a desk or table. Hold on to the desk or table so it doesn't move away from you.Teacher: What should we do if we're outside when an earthquake happens?Ms Fors:Go to an open space away from buildings,trees, or power lines.Student 2: And what about after an earthquake?Ms Fors:Well, if you' re trapped, you can use a cell phone to call or text for help. You can also tap on a pipe or a wall, or whistle for help. That way Lucky and I can find you!Student 2: I have a question for Lucky. Do you like being a rescue dog?Ms Fors: Lucky, what do you say?<Sound of dog barking twice>Teacher: I think he says he's a lucky dog.<They laugh>video TimeTsunami: Killer WaveThe warnings are few. The signs are sudden. The ground shakes. The tide goes into reverse. A great roaring sound fills the air. And then… It strikes. Wave after wave of crashing, crushing water. And when it is over, nothing is left.A tsunami. The word in Japanese means "harbour wave". Japan has been hit by many tsunamis in its history, as a result of its location. It lies across the edges of 4 tectonic plates地壳板块, Most earthquakes are born in such places. When two tectonic plates push together, the earthquake sends enormous amounts of energy up through the ocean. A series of waves expands in all directions. In deep water. These waves travel fast—up to 500 miles an hour—but reach a height of only a few feet. A passing ship may not even notice them. But as the waves enter shallow waters and come into contact with the ocean floor, their speed is reduced but their height is raised. As they move onto land, the waves can rise as high as a 10-story building.A tsunami wave doesn’t break like an ordinary wave, Instead, it advances like a wall of water, crashing over everything in its way, sometimes reaching more than a kilometre inland. More damage is caused when the wave moves back out to sea. It drags everything in its path underwater and out to sea. Most tsunamis have several waves. They arrive between 10 and 60 minutes after the first strike-just when survivors think the danger has passed.The deadliest tsunami ever recorded occurred in December of 2004. An earthquake off the coast of Indonesia caused a tsunami that rushed across the Indian Ocean and reached as far as the coast of Africa. Whole sections of cities weredestroyed. More than 200 000 people died. Most had no way of being warned Five thousand miles away in Hawaii, scientists at the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre monitor the earth's movements 24 hours a day. They hope to prevent a similar disaster from happening in the Pacific region. If they discover a quake big enough to cause a tsunami, the scientists try to find out where the wave will head and warn people in its path. Their advice is simple: leave the coastal areas and move to higher ground. Wait for news that the danger has passed. And be ready to deal with the damage that a tsunami leaves behind.Unit 5 Languages Around the WorldListening and SpeakingTo some students, it seems that the only foreign language to learn is English. There are, however, near 7, 000 languages in the world. After Chinese, the language with the most native language speakers isn’t English----it's Spanish! Learning English is very useful, but it is wise to learn at least one other foreign language, if possible.There are many reasons why people learn a foreign language. Many students choose to study one of the languages that are spoken at the UN. As they think it means better job chances in the future. The UN has six official languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanish. They are spoken by around 2.8 billion people as their native or second languages.Some students, though, choose to study a language because of family or friends. One American girl chose to learn Danish because her grandparents were from Denmark. When she was little, her grandpa used to read letters to her in Danish fromtheir relatives in Denmark. Another young lady started learning French because she had several friends from African countries where French is spoken.What do you think? Which other language would you choose to study and why?Listening and TalkingLISTENNG PART 1As many countries speak English as a first language, there are many different kinds of English around the world: British English, American English, Australian English, and many others. Some English learners might ask, " Can English speakers from different countries all understand each other? " The answer is yes. People in these countries can usually understand each other with very few problems. There are differences in vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar, but those are usually not big problems. However those differences can cause confusion for non-native English speakers. For example, a student who has learnt British English might not be familiar with the different vocabulary that an American might use. Listen to this conversation between a foreign language student and her American classmateLISTENING PART 2Amy: Thank you very much for helping me with my EnglishBetty:You're welcome! When are you free to meet? This semester, I’m free on Tuesday and Thursday after lunch.Amy: I’m sorry? What does “semester” mean?Betty: You know, semester---- half of a school yearAmy: Oh, you mean like a term?Betty:Yes, like a term. The British say "term". We usually say " semester" here in America.Amy:Got it! My first English lesson with you, haha? OK, let's meet on Tuesday.Where shall we meet?Betty:Let's meet at a coffee shop near my home. It's very convenient to get there by subwayAmy:Subway? Do you mean the Underground?Betty:Yes, the train that goes under the ground!Amy:Ah, got it! Haha, my second English lesson---- thank you!*Video TimeChinese CharactersThe history of Chinese characters dates back to ancient times, with a history of at least several thousand years. There are many tales and legends about the origin of hanzi, Chinese characters: there is Cangjie, the legendary inventor of Chinese characters; the ancient practice of knot-tying: the eight trigrams; and ancient painting legends, to name a few.It is generally agreed that hanzi began as simple pictures, images that the ancient Chinese people drew, painted, or carved to describe nature or their lives. Other ancient cultures developed picture-based writing systems as well, such as the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt or the script of the ancient Mayan civilisation. Hanzi,however, is the only one of these ancient writing systems to survive. Today, Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world.Researchers generally agree that the oldest symbols recognisable as Chinese characters are those found on ancient oracle bones. These 3000-year-old symbols, known as jiaguwen, were carved on turtle shells or bones of animals. The jiaguwen can give all of us in the modern era insight into how ancient Chinese saw the world around them and into their great creativity in expressing their observations.Take, for example, the modern character jia, meaning home or family. The jiaguwen character looks like a house with a nice pig inside, originating from the ancient idea that a good family home has plenty food. Over thousands of years, this hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms but finally developed in a more stable manner after the unification of China under Emperor Qinshihuang.When you first look at Chinese characters, you will most likely feel that they are very complicated However, if you know just a little about how these characters are formed, you will find that they are not nearly as difficult as they seem. About 80% of Chinese characters are composed of smaller parts, known as radicals, which are combined in many different ways to form tens of thousands of hanzi. Fortunately you need to know only about two or three thousand characters for use in daily life.Chinese characters and Chinese culture are inseparably linked. China's unified writing system forms a strong bridge linking the Chinese people and culture of the present with those of the past. No matter when or where you live, if you can read Chinese, you can read ancient Chinese classics. It is truly an amazing thing to be able to hear the thoughts and observations of people from thousands of years ago.As China takes its place in the international community, the Chinese writing system has spread to other countries. Today, many international students are studying Chinese, both the spoken and written language, and are coming to appreciate Chinas fascinating culture. And, as China’s culture and society have continued to develop, the amazingly versatile Chinese characters (hanzi) have been adapted for use in digital format on computers and other devices And so written Chinese lives on, spreading Chinese culture wherever It goes.。

下面就让小编来为大家介绍一下托福听力TPO1原文中Conversation 1的文本内容吧，大家要好好把握，这些都是非常有价值的材料，希望能够给准备托福听力的同学带来帮助。

TPO 1 Conversation 1NarratorListen to part of a conversation between a student and a librarian.StudentHi, um…, I really hope you can help me.LibrarianThat’s why I’m here. What can I do for you?StudentI’m supposed to do a literature review for my psychology course, but … having a hard time finding articles. I don’t even know where to start looking.LibrarianYou said this is for your psychology course, right? So your focus is on …StudentDream Interpretation.LibrarianWell, you have a focus, so that’s already a good start. Hmmm… well, there’re a few things… oh wait… have you checked to see if your professor put any material for you to look at on reserve?StudentAha, that’s one thing I did know to do. I just copied an article, but I still need three more on my topic from three different journals.LibrarianLet’s get you going on looking for those then. We have printed versions of twenty or so psychology journals in the Reference Section. These are ones published within the last year. Now that I think about it… there’s a journal named Sleep and Dreams.StudentOh, yeah, the article I just copied is from that journal, so I’ve got to look in other sources.LibrarianOk, actually, most of our materials are available electronically now. You can access psychology databases or electronic journals and articles through the library’s computers, and if you want to search by title with the word ‘dream’for example, just type it in and all the articles with ‘dream’in the title will come up on the screen.StudentCool, that’s great! Too bad I cannot do this from home.LibrarianBut you can. All of the library’s databases and electronic sources can be accessed through any computer connected to the university network.StudentReally?! I can’t believe I didn’t know that. It still sounds like it’s going to take a while though, you know, going through all of that information, all of those sources.LibrarianMaybe, but you already narrowed your search down to articles on Dream Interpretation, so it shouldn’t be too bad. And you probably notice that there’s an abstract or summary at the top of the first page of the article you copied. When you go into the databases and electronic sources, you have the option to display the abstracts on the computer screen, skimming those to decide whether or not you want to read the whole article should cut down some time.StudentRight, abstracts! They’ll definitely make the project more doable.I guess I should try out the electronic search while I’m still here then, you know, just in case.LibrarianSure, er… that computer’s free over there, and I’ll be here till five this afternoon.StudentThanks, I feel a lot better about this assignment now.翻译独白：听一段学生和图书管理员的对话。

托福TPO15听力Conversation1文本 Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and the faculty adviser of the campus newspaper. Man: Hi, I talked to someone on the phone a couple of weeks ago. Anna, I think it was? Woman: I am Anna, the faculty adviser. Man: Oh, great! I’m Peter Murphy. You probably don’t remember me, but … Woman: No, no, I remember you. You were interested in working for the paper. Man: Yeah, as a reporter. Woman: That’s right. Uh, you’re taking a journalism class and you’ve done some reporting before in high school, right? Man: Wow, you have a good memory. Woman: Well, we haven’t had many students applying lately. So, anyway, you still want to do some reporting for us? Man: Yeah, if you have room for me on the staff. Woman: Well, we always need more reporters, but you know we don’t pay anything, right? Man: Yeah, I know. But I, uh, I’d like the experience. It will look good on my resume. Woman: Absolutely! Let’s see. I think I told you that we ask prospective reporters to turn in some outlines for possible articles? Ma: Yeah, I sent them in about a week ago. But I haven’t heard anything back yet, so, so I thought I’d stop by and see, but I guess you haven’t looked at them yet. Woman: Oh, Max, the news editor, he looks at all the submissions. Man: Oh, so he hasn’t made any decision about me yet? Woman: Well, I just got here a few minutes ago, haven’t been in for a couple of days. Uh, just give me a second to check my email. Uh, here’s a message from Max. Let’ see. Well, it seems you’ve really impressed him. He says it’d be wonderful if you could join our staff. Man: Oh, great! When can I start? Woman: Well, you turned in an outline on something to do with the Physics Department? Man: Yeah. They’re trying to come up with ways to get more students to take their introductory courses. Woman: Right. Well, apparently nobody else is covering that story so he wants you to follow up on it. Man: OK. Uh, what about the other outline I sent in? About the proposed increase in tuition fee? Woman: Oh, it looks like we’ve got that covered. Man: So, I’m starting with an article about the Physics Department. I guess I’d better get to work. Do you have any advice on how I should cover the story? Woman: Well, Max wanted to talk to you, but, I’m sure he’ll tell you to find out things like why the Physics Department worried about enrollment. Has the number of students been getting smaller in recent years? By how much? What kinds of plans they’re considering to address this problem? Man: Right. Some of those issues are already in what I proposed. Woman: And you want to do some interviews: you know, what the professors think of the plans, what the students think. You get the idea, but… Man: But wait till I talk to Max before proceeding? Woman: Right, he’ll cover everything you need to know to be a reporter for us. Can you come back this afternoon? He’ll be here until five o’clock. 托福TPO15听力Conversation1题目 1.Why does the student go to the campus newspaper office?。

托福TPO23听力Conversation1文本 Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and the director of campus activities. Student: I'm here 'cause... well, there's something I don't understand. I set an announcement for an event. And this morning I checked the events section of the university's website. And nothing, there is no mention of it. Director: And when did you submit this request? Student: Last Wednesday. I followed the instructions very carefully. I am sure it was Wednesday, because know announcements have be submitted three business days ahead of the posting day. Director: And what's it for? Student: A reading. Director: A reading? Student: Yes. A poetry reading. Director: Oh, OK. When is it? Student: In three days. It is an author from France we have been trying to get for a while. And now that he has finally agreed to come, no one will be there. Director: Wow. This person is really coming all the way from France? Student: Oh, no. He is teaching in New York City this year. We were able to sell him on the idea by promising there will be a nice size crowd. I felt confident about that because I know how enthusiastic our group is. Director: And your group? Do you have a name? Student: Um? Well, it is kind of a loose group, you know, just a bunch of students in the French department who are interested in French literature. There's no formal structure or anything. I guess you could call us the French Literature Reading Group. Director: OK. And it is a recognized group? By the university, I mean. Student: No Director: OK. Student: But the French Department is funding this, on the condition that we do all the legwork. Director: All right. Hold on a second while I check. Well, it looks like we did receive your announcement last Wednesday. Uh, looks like the editors must have decided not to include your event in this week's listings. Student: Not included? Why? Director: Well, we don't post things automatically. We get so many requests that we couldn't possibly post them all. So events that are thought to be too specialized, without the potential for really wide appeal... Student: Wow, I got to say that does surprise me. What am I going to do now? I mean, he really is quite famous. I really do think there would be a genuine interest beyond my group. It would be a shame if no one shows up because there isn't enough publicity. Is there anyone else I can talk to? Director: I don't think that would do you much good since we are already working on next week's schedule. But maybe you could ask the French department to post the announcement on its website. And maybe you could approach some other departments as well, you know, relevant ones. Student: I knew we should have done a poster. But everybody was like, oh, you can just post it online. In any event, thanks for your help. It's something to consider. 托福TPO23听力Conversation1题目 1.What is the cause of the student's problem? A. She missed the deadline for submitting her announcement to the university web site. B. She did not include enough information in her announcement. C. The editors of the university web site did not post her announcement D. The university web site will not be available to students for several days.。

托福TPO1听力Conversation1文本 Student: Hi, um…, I really hope you can help me. Librarian: That’s why I’m here. What can I do for you? Student: I’m supposed to do a literature review for my psychology course, but um… having a hard time finding articles. I don’t even know where to start looking. Librarian: You said this is for your psychology course, right? So your focus is on … Student: Dream Interpretation. Librarian: Well, you have a focus, so that’s already a good start. Hmmm… well, there’re a few things… oh wait… have you checked to see if your professor put any material for you to look at on reserve? Student: Aha, that’s one thing I did know to do. I just copied an article, but I still need three more on my topic from three different journals. Librarian: Let’s get you going on looking for those then. We have printed versions of twenty or so psychology journals in the Reference Section. These are the ones published within the last year. Then I think about it… there’s a journal named Sleep and Dream. Student: Oh, yeah, the article I just copied is from that journal, so I’ve got to look at other sources. Librarian: Ok, actually, most of our materials are available electronically now. You can access psychology databases or electronic journals and articles through the library’s computers, and if you want to search by title with the word ‘dream’ for example, just type it in and all the articles with ‘dream’ in the title will come up on the screen. Student: Cool, that’s great! Too bad I cannot do this from home. Librarian: But you can. All of the library's databases and electronic sources can be accessed through any computer connected to the university network. Student: Really, I can’t believe I didn’t know that. It still sounds like it’sgoing to take a while though, you know, going through all of that information, all of those sources. Librarian: Maybe, but you already narrow your search down to articles on Dream Interpretation, so it shouldn’t be too bad. And you probably notice that there’s an abstract or summary at the top of the first page of the article you copied. When you go into the databases and electronic sources, you have the option to display the abstracts on the computer screen, skimming those to decide whether or not you want to read the whole article should cut down some time. Student: Right, abstracts! They’ll definitely make the project more doable. I guess I should try out the electronic search while I’m still here then, you know, just in case. Librarian: Sure, er… that computer’s free over there, and I’ll be here till five this afternoon. Student: Thanks, I feel a lot better about this assignment now. 托福TPO1听力Conversation1题目 1.Why does the student go to see the librarian? a) To sign up for a seminar on using electronic sources for research b) To report that a journal is missing from the reference area c) To find out the procedure for checking out journal articles d) To ask about how to look for resources for a class paper 2.What does the librarian say about the availability of journals and articles in the library? a) They are not easy to find if a professor put them on reserve. b) Most of them are accessible in an electronic format. c) Most of them can be checked out for three weeks. d) Printed versions from the past three years are located in the reference section. 3.What does the librarian suggest the student should do to save time?。

长对话1-5原文

Long conversation 1W: Hi, Bill, how is it going?M: Oh, hi, Jane. I’m OK. How about you?W: You can probably tell just by looking at me. I’m really busy. Hey, what are you reading?M: A pretty interesting article. My biology professor assigned it, and I thought I just looked it over. But I got really involved in it. It’s about endangered species.W: That sounds pretty interesting. I’m getting frustrated with the two research papers I’m struggling with. And can you believe they are both due on the same day?M: That’s tough.W: I’ll get through it. So what’s this you are reading?M: Well, it’s basically about the choices conservationists are faced with. You know, these days when funding is so hard to come by.W: Wait a minute. Is the focus on biology or economics?M: Both. Conservationists don’t have enough funding to save every endangered species in the world, so they have to decide based on what would be lost if a species became extinct.W: Can you give me an example of what you mean?M: Take for instance, two animals, the spotted owl and the tailed toad. The article says the toad is unique. It has no relatives. But there are a lot of varieties of owls.W: So, if that toad became extinct, we’d lose an important link in the chain of evolution, right? M: Exac tly. But that isn’t so for the owl.So for conservationists, it might be a clear choice of which animal to save.W: I see. I am glad I don’t have to make that kind of decision. Aren’t you?Long conversation 2M: Good evening, dear audience. I’m glad to continue the topic about music. It is common knowledge that music can have a powerful effect on our emotions. In fact, since 1930s, music therapists have relied on music to soothe patients and help control pain. Now psychologists are confirming that music can also help relieve depression and improve concentration.W: That’s nice. Do they have any concrete examples?M: For instance, in a recent study, 15 surgeons were given some highly stressed math problems to solve. They were divided into three groups: one worked in silence; and in another, the surgeons listened to music of their choice on headphones; the third listened to classic music chosen by the researchers.W: What’re the results?M: The results of the study may surprise you. The doctors who got to choose their music experienced less stress and scored better than the others.W: That is surprising. How to explain this?M: One possible explanation is that listening to music you like stimulates the Alfa-wave in the brain, increases the heart rate and expands the breathing. That helps to reduce stress and sharpen concentration.W: Is there any other research?M: Yes. Other research suggests a second relation between the music and the brain: by examining the students’ blood after listening to a variety o f classical music collections, the researchers found that some students showed a large increase in a chemical substance, a natural pain reliever, in their blood, which can help soothe the patient.W: Well, thank you so much for being with us today and having us know about another function of music.Long conversation 3W: OK, that’s it. Now we have to make a decision. We might as well do that now, don’t you think? M: Sure, let’s see. First we saw Frank Brisenski. What did you think of him?W: Well, he’s certainly a very polite young man.M: And very relaxed, too.W: But his appearance…M: En…He wasn’t well dressed. He wasn’t even wearing a tie.W: But he did have a nice voice. He sounded good on the telephone.M: True. And I thought he seemed very intelligent. He answered Dona’s questions very well. W: That’s true, but dressing well is important. Well, let’s think about the others. Now what about Barber Jones? She had a nice voice, too. She sounded good on the telephone, and she was well dressed, too.M: En…She did look very neat, very nicely dressed, but…W: But so shy. She wouldn’t be very good at talking to people at the front desk.M: En…OK. Now who was the next? Ar…Yes, David Wallace. I thought he was very good, had a lot of potential. What do you think?W: En…He seemed like a very bright guy. He dressed very nicely, too. And he had a really nice appearance.M: He seemed relaxed to me, the type of person people feel comfortable with right away.W: He was polite, but also very friendly and relaxed as you say. I think he’ll be good with the guests at the front desk.M: He had a very pleasant voice, too.W: That’s right. OK, good! I guess we have our receptionist then, don’t you?M: Yes, I think so. We’ll just offer the job to…Long conversation 4W: Hello.M: Hello. Is that the reference library?W: Yes, can I help you?M: I hope so. I ran earlier and asked for some information about Dennis Hutton, the scientist. You asked me to ring back.W: Oh, yes. I have found something.M: Good. I’ve got a pencil and paper. Perhaps you could read out what it says.W: Certainly. Hutton Dennis, born Darlington, 1836, died New York, 1920.M: Yes, got that.W: Inventor and physicist, the son of a farm worker. He was admitted to the University of London at the age of 15.M: Yes.W: He graduated at 17 with the first class degree in physics and mathematics. All right?M: Yes, all right.W: He made his first notable achievement at the age of 18. It was a method of refrigeration which rolls from his work in low temperature physics. He became professor of mathematics at the University of Manchester at 24, where he remained for twelve years. During that time, he married one of his students, Natasha WilloughbyM: Yes, go on.W: Later working together in London, they laid the foundations of modern physics by showing that normal laws of cause and effect do not apply at the level of subatomic particles. For this he and his wife received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1910, and did so again in 1912 for their work on very high frequency radio waves. In his lifetime, Hutton patented 244 inventions. Do you want any more?M: Yes, when did he go to America?W: Let me see. In 1920 he went to teach in New York and died there suddenly after only three weeks. Still he was a good age.M: Yes, I suppose so. Well, thanks.Long conversation 5Interviewer: Rob, you went to Brazil, didn't you?Rob: Yes, I did.Interviewer: So, what happened?Rob: Well, I went into this meeting and there were about, er... seven or eight people in there and I just said 'Hello' to everybody and sat down. Apparently, what I should have done is to go round the room shaking hands with everyone individually. Well, you know, it's silly of me because I found out later it upset everyone. I mean, I think they felt I was taking them for granted.Kate: Well, I know that because when I was in France the first time, I finished a meeting , with 'Goodbye, everyone!' to all the people in the room. There were about half a dozen people there but I was in a hurry to leave, so I just said that and left. Well, I later found out that what I should have done is shake hands with everyone in the group before leaving. Now, apparently, it's the polite thing to do.Interviewer: Well, people shake hands in different ways, don't they?Rob: Oh, yes, that's right, they do. See, normally I shake hands quite gently when I meet someone. So when I went to the US for the first time, I think people there thought my weak handshake was a sign of weakness. Apparently, people there tend to shake hands quite firmly.Kate: Oh, gosh, you know, that reminds me: on my first trip to Germany, it was a long time ago, I was introduced to the boss in the company when he passed us in the corridor. Well, I wasn't prepared, and I mean, I had my left hand in my pocket. And when we shook hands I realized myleft hand was still in my pocket. Well, that was, you know, very bad manners and I was quite embarrassed.Interviewer: And how about using first names? Have you made any mistakes there?Rob: Oh, yes, I have! When I first went to Italy I thought it was OK to use everyone's first name so as to seem friendly. And I later discovered that in business you shouldn't use someone's first name unless you are invited to. Oh, and you should always use their title as well.Kate: Hm, yeah, well, when I met people in Russia, you know, they seemed to be puzzled when I shook hands with them and said 'How do you do?' Well, what they do when they greet a stranger is to say their own names, so I had that all wrong!Rob: Oh, yes, I agree with that. Remembering names is very important.Interviewer: Shall we take a break? When we come back we'll move on to our next topic.Kate & Rob: OK.。
