College culture Unit 1Unit 1 College cultureInside viewConversation1Janet ：So this is the Cherwell Boathouse –it’s lovely! And look at those people punting! It looks quite easy.Mark ：I’m not so sure about that! Janet, there’s something Kate and I wanted to discuss with you. Some people in college are organizing charity events this term. We’ve decided to get involved.Janet ：Raising money for charity? Right. In China, people raise money for charity but students don’t usually do that.Mark ：Students often do that here. Anyway, we’re thinking of doing sponsored punting.Janet ：Sponsored punting! What’s that?Kate ：Sponsoring is when people pay you to do something –like run a long distance. So people would be sponsoring students to punt.Janet ：What a great idea! I’d love to join you!Mark ：That’s why we’re telling you about it. So that’s decided then. Let’s make a list of things we need to do.Kate ：I’ll do that. One of the first things we should do is choose the charity.Mark ：Yes. And choose a day for the event. And we need to design the sponsorship form. I’ve got one here.Kate ：That looks fine, but we must change the wording. Who wants to do that? Mark ：I’ll do that. What have we got so far?Kate ：Choose a charity. Also a day for the event. Change the wording on the sponsorship form…Um …We have to decide where the punt will start from.Mark ：Cherwell Boathouse, no question! It's a very beautiful route from here, apparently.Kate ：I’m with you on that.Janet ：Me too …Conversation2Janet ：I’m not used to boats –Woah!Mark ：Whoops!Kate ：Watch out! You nearly hit me with that thing!Mark ：Sorry! I didn’t mean to. …OK, we’re off!Kate ：Maybe I should do the punting.Mark ：It’s fine. I’ve got the hang of it now –give me a chance.Kate ：Well, I’d like to have a go.Mark ：Supposing I do the first hour. Then you can take over for a while, if you wantto.Kate ：Yes, great.Janet ：You’re really good at it, Mark! This is fantastic! It’s exactly how I imagined lifehere! Look over there –isn’t it lovely!Kate ：Yes, it is.…Janet ：Kate, everything’s organized, isn’t it, for8 collecting the sponsorship money?Kate ：Yes, I’ve arranged for people to get the money to me by next Friday –if they haven’t paid online. I’ll count it all up.Janet ：Good. We’d better have a meeting soon after that, don’t you think? How much have weraised?Kate ：About 600.Janet：Fantastic! I’m so enjoying this!Mark ：Hey guys, I’ve got a suggestion –how about moving over to the bank and we can have ourpicnic! Hey, look, there’s Louise and Sophie!Mark ：Whoo …Girls Mark!Janet ：Are you all right?Mark ：Er …Of course I’m all right. Kate, I think it’s your turn to punt!Outside viewV/OHarvard University in Cambridge is one of the best universities in the world. We spoke to Alex Jude, the university’s Head of Communications. He explained that Harvard looks for the best and most talented students from around the world.AlexHarvard actually seeks students from around the world, the best students that we can find, to study chemistry, or study literature, or study government, or business. Our business school is particularly well-known around the world, as is the medical school and law school, so, um, and, and the Kennedy School of government, for the John F. Kennedy School of Government, so, er, we do seek very, very talented students and we have open doors for them.V/OWe asked five students at Harvard to tell us what kind of social life they have. AshleyUm, well relaxing is a little hard to do around here, but basically, I mean, I still, I, I live nearby anyway, so I see a lot of my friends, and …Um, there’s a good social life here if you look for it. I go to the gym, run. So that’s what I do.It is whatever you want it to be. It’s good. If you wanna go out party, do anything you can. If you wanna sit in your room and study all night like my friend over here, you can also do that.BrianSocially, like you said, it’s, it’s a lot of what you make it. Um, we don’t have fraternities here, and so, you know, that’s, it’s obviously not as social. There’s not as many parties as there would be on another campus. Um, but on a Friday or Saturday night, there, there, there will be a party. Usually we end up studying until about 10 o’clock. And then we, and then we’ll go out and have fun maybe, or just watch a movie with friends, or, you know, whatever is going on for the night. JodieNot everyone would agree with me, obviously, but it’s, I think it’s a fun place to be. Int.Have you made a lot of friends?JodieOh, definitely.Int. ：Mm.JodieMany.Int.What, what do you do with your friends?Um, well, I like to go to concerts. I’m in three music groups, so I have lots of rehearsals during the week for that. Um, just do, you know, some fun things, on the weekend.V/OWe asked the Harvard students if they use theInternet.AshleyUm, I, I use it a fairly good amount. Um, our library system is online, so I use that a lot. And a lot of my classes, you know, have to do research papers. You can find a lot of information on there, so.Int.So how often do you use it, a week, a day?AshleyUm, I use it probably on more of a weekly basis. Maybe three or four times a week. BrianOh yes, definitely. We live through the Internet actually. Well, I do a lot of research through the Internet, follow my stocks on the Internet. Um, well, even though e-mail is not officially Internet, we, that’s how we communicate a lot at college, so, through the e-mail.JohnUm, I use the internet mostly for, er, I’d say, sort of leisure purposes. I mean, I play,um, I use it for a lot of, I don’t, we don’t have TV in my room, so I use it, uh, uh, go to the CNN website, keep up on current events, things like that. Uh, I also, uh, you know, there’s some little games to play over the Internet. Um, just um, I go to to see what’s happening, follow the Boston Red Sox, things like that. Um, I think a lot of courses use it to post things, but I, I don’t usually use it that much for research, or things. I tend to use the libraries for such things, so.Listening inPassage1V/OHi, I’m Nick Carter, and this is SUR, your university radio station. This morning we went around campus to ask freshers –now half-way through their first year –the question, “How are you finding uni?”Here are some of the answers we got.Speaker 1It’s cool. It’s everything I hoped it would be. I’m very ambitious, I want to be a journalist and I want to get to the top of the profession. I’ve started writing for the university newspaper so I’ve got my foot on the ladder already.Speaker 2I’m working hard and the teaching is as good as I expected. And I’ve made some good friends. But I’m very homesick. I’m Nigerian and my family’s so far away.I went home at Christmas for a month –that really helped, but man, I miss my family so much.Speaker 3“How am I finding uni?”It’s great. It’s not perfect, nothing is, but, like, I’ve got a brilliant social life, just brilliant, and I’ve made lots of friends. For the first few months I just didn’t do, really enough work. But I –I talked about it with my parents and I’m working harder now and getting good grades.Speaker 4Actually, I’ve been quite lonely to be honest. I’m a bit shy …everyone else seemed to find it so easy to make friends straight away. But things have been better recently –yeah, they have. I’ve joined a couple of clubs and like, it really helps to get to know people when you have shared interests. So, yeah –I’m feeling a lot happier now.Speaker 5Uni’s great, I love it. My only problem –and it’s quite a big problem –is money. My parents are both unemployed so, you know, they can’t help me financially. My grant just isn’t –it’s just not enough for me to live on, so I’ve taken a part-time job as a waitress –a lot of people I know, like a lot, have had to do the same. I don’t want to have huge debts at the end.Speaker 6I love my subject, History, and I’m, I’m getting fantastic teaching here. I want to bea university lecturer and that means I have to get a first. I have a good social life butwork definitely comes first for me.Passage2Oxford and Cambridge –two universities so similar that they are often spoken of together as“Oxbridge”. They’re both in the UK, fairly near London, and both regularly come top in any ranking of the world’s best universities.The two universities began within a century of each other. Oxford University, now 900 years old,was founded towards the end of the 11th century. In 1209 there was a dispute between the university and the townspeople of Oxford. As a result, some of the Oxford teachers left and founded a university in the town of Cambridge, some 84 miles away. Ever since then, the two institutions have been very competitive.Unlike most modern universities, both Oxford and Cambridge consist of a large number of colleges. Oxford has 39 and Cambridge 31. Many of these colleges have old and very beautiful architecture, and large numbers of tourists visit them.In all UK universities, you need good grades in the national exams taken at 18. But to get into Oxford and Cambridge, it’s not enough to get A grades in your exams.You also have to go for a long interview. In these interviews, students need to show that they are creative and capable of original thinking.Through the centuries, both universities have made huge contributions to British cultural life.They have produced great writers, world leaders and politicians. Cambridge, in particular, has produced scientists whose discoveries and inventions have changed our lives.Among the great university institutions is the world’s most famous debating society, the Oxford Union, where undergraduates get a chance to practise speaking in public. Cambridge’s comedy club Footlights has produced many first-class comedians, while some of the UK’s most famous actors and actresses began their careers at The Oxford University Dramatic Society, known as OUDS. Then there’s the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race, which takes place every year in March or April, and is watched on television all over the UK.So with all this excellence in so many fields, it’s not surprising that the ambition of clever students all over the world is to attend either one of these great universities.Unit 2Inside viewConversation1Kate ：Come in. Hey, Janet.Janet ：Hi Kate, are you busy?Kate ：Yes, I’m just doing an essay. But it’s great to see you. So what’s new? Janet ：Well, nothing much.Kate ：You look a bit fed up. What’s bugging you?Janet ：Well, I had a phone call from my parents and it made me feel homesick. It happens everytime they call, and it gets me down.Kate ：I’m sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. I love speaking to my mum and dad, but Ialways feel miserable after the call.Janet ：My dad doesn’t say much, and I want to speak to him, but I wish I knew what to say.Kate ：Don’t let it get to you. My dad doesn’t say much on the phone either. I call, he answersthe phone, and says, “Hi, I’ll pass you to your mother.”It’s really irritating. Janet ：But I miss him and my mother a lot, and I like to hear his voice.Kate ：Just tell him what you’re up to.Janet ：Sometimes I feel as if I made a mistake leaving home and coming to Oxford.Sometimes I feel like a moody teenager.Kate ：Try not to worry about it, Janet. It’s normal to feel like that. I understand how you feel, butI bet everything will be fine next term. You’ll get used to it. Hey, why don’t you do what I do?Janet ：What’s that?Kate ：When my dad calls, I ask him for more money! He usually says no, but at least I getto hear his voice!Janet ：Maybe. I’m sorry to take up your time, Kate, but I must go now. Bye! Kate ：Wait a minute …!Conversation2Kate ：I think I may have upset Janet last night.Mark ：What happened?Kate ：She came to see me. I was busy doing an essay but I was really pleased to see her. She’d had a call from home, and said she was feeling homesick.Mark ：Poor kid! It must be tough on you guys, living so far away from home. Kate ：I tried to make her laugh, told her not to worry about it, and that it was normal to feel miserable. Suddenly she looked miserable, and then she got up and said, “I must go now”and left my room. It was really sudden. I felt as if I’d saidsomething wrong.Mark ：Maybe she was just being polite. It was probably because she realized you were working and didn’t want to disturb you.Kate ：I just wonder if she found it difficult to talk about her feelings with me. Maybe I shouldn’thave tried to make her laugh? Perhaps she thought I wasn’t taking her seriously. Mark ：I wouldn’t worry about it. Put yourself in her shoes. How would you feel if you were a student at college in China?Kate ：I know. That’s why I feel bad. If only she had stayed longer! I wish I could have helped her more.Janet ：Hey, everyone!Mark ：Hi Janet, you look cheerful!Janet ：Yes, I’ve just got my essay back. I got an alpha minus!Kate ：What an amazing grade! Well done.Mark ：I’m really happy for you, Janet.Janet ：I feel on top of the world!Outside viewSebastienHi. I’m Sebastien. I’m from Germany. Um, the idea of IQ of a measure of your brain power has been around for a while, but recently there’s been this new idea of theEQ –your emotional quotient. And by now, it’s actually almost being regarded as more important. If you look at it, businesses will …Well, they will prefer employing people with great EQ. Well, of course, IQ cannot be disregarded, but um, EQ does have its importance as well. Uh, I believe that, um, …I mean, people, most people will have, um, their basic means of communicating with other people. Most people are somewhat socially adept, and just like most people have, you know, a basic general knowledge. But then, what I think really is the difference betweenIQ and EQ, I mean, you can have a “brainiac”, and they will be great at most things they do, but if you just can’t get along with him, if you just can’t communicate with him, I mean, you know, he’s not really that useful.KimHi. This is Kim. I’m originally from Korea, and I was raised in California. And today, we are going to talk about the differences between IQ and EQ –IQ meaning your intelligence, EQ meaning your emotions. Now, in …When I was, when I was a little, little boy in Korea, I had to take …I think I’d taken like two or three IQ tests before the age of ten, which is when I moved to California. So, I guess we stress a lot of importance on intelligence, on having great IQ scores. But after I moved to the States, I learnt how to associate with people, and along the lines that this word EQ came up, you know, emotional, caring about …It’s basically how you deal with people, howyou make people feel, and how people make you feel.I think they’re equally as, as important, but it seems that in the Eastern world they kind of stress on that a lot more back in the days. But I think again, you know, now that with Internet and people are communicating so much faster, there’s a better mixture of the two I think. There’s a stress on EQ in Korea as well, and a stress on IQ in the States. Thank you.TedHello. My name is Ted, and I’m from the United States of America. Today, I’m going to talk a little bit about IQ or EQ –which is most important, or which is more important. Now, for a long time when I was growing up, people said, “IQ. What’s your IQ? T ake an IQ test.”But then EQ, your emotions, how you interact with people, that became very important. And I think they’re …that people might be onto something with that, because your EQ –how you deal with people, how you interact with people –is important. Now, a big part of this, in my opinion, is listening. I know I’m talking a lot right now, but if you want to get along well with people, you have to listen to them, so just take a minute, maybe shut your mouth for a minute, and listen to others, and then you can understand and communicate with them in a better way. So, part of EQ, I think, is listening –listening to others –and it can be more important than IQ.Listening inPassage1PresenterWe’re fortunate to have as our guest today Dr Jenna Hudson, who has just written a book about how colours affect us in our surroundings, especially in the world of advertising. It’s called Market Colours. Dr Hudson, which are the most common colours in advertising and marketing?Dr HudsonWell, of course, it depends what image the marketing team wish to project with their products. So for example, we often think of blue as a cold colour, but it also makes you feel peaceful, quiet, and it doesn’t suggest strong emotions. So it’s a favourite for banks and insurance companies, who wish to suggest the image that they are trustworthy. And for selling products, it’s often used tosuggest something is pure and fresh.What about red?You can sell almost anything with red. It’s a hot colour, which suggests a feeling of energy and even passion. It grabs your attention, and can make people buy almost anything. You often see red on magazine covers. But if you use it too much, it looks cheap and may make people tired. And orange has a similar effect to red, it’s upbeat and happy, it suggests pleasant feelings and images. Most people react well to orange, and it’s especially popular in advertising and on packaging for bakedfood.What about yellow, for instance?Yellow is the colour of sunshine and it’s a positive, happy colour, so it’s used a lot in advertising. But it’s also often used for warning signs, direction signs, and so on, where you have to read the message quickly and at a distance.What about less popular colours for advertising?Surprisingly, green isn’t used much in advertising except for garden products. It’s friendly and restful. It can be cool and soothing, the colour of apples and mint, but it can also be quite strong and many people associate it with unpleasant ideas of decay or slimy creatures. But most colours are not primary colours, they’re a combination. Absolutely. So yellow-orange is common, and often used to give animpression of style and class, it looks like gold. But it’s not often used in letters because it’s not very strong. And yellow-green reminds people of feeling sick.Blue-green works well as a cool colour, suggesting freshness, and is sometimesused for toothpaste products, bathroom products, food and household cleaning products. It has many of the advantages of blue without the disadvantages of green.Fascinating.Thank you very much, DrScriptsHudson. Market Colours by Dr JennaHudson is on sale from next week,priced ￡15.99 …Passage2Presenter ：What makes you embarrassed, Sally?Sally ：Oh, I’m easily embarrassed. If anybody notices me or looks at me, I get very embarrassed. When people sing me Happy Birthday on my birthday, I get very embarrassed.Presenter ：And what makes you upset?Sally ：When people are selfish, people who think only of themselves. And cruelty –I can’t bear people who are cruel, especially to animals or children.Presenter ：Jake, what makes you depressed?Jake ：I hate it when it rains, and I don’t like people who look down on me, who think they’re superior to me without any reason.Presenter ：And what makes you angry?Jake ：When people don’t behave properly in public, bad behaviour like dropping litter or people pushing each other on the bus or the train.Presenter ：Andrew, what makes you cheerful?Andrew ：I like to see everyone around me being happy and having a positive attitude towards the future, optimistic people.Presenter ：And what makes you jealous?Andrew ：Well, to be honest, I just never feel jealous. I can’t see the point of it.Presenter ：Monica, what makes you proud?Monica ：I’m proud when I’m successful, especially in my work. Being recognized by my boss for what I can do makes me feel really proud. Oh, and my family. I’m very proud of them.Presenter ：And what makes you nervous?Monica ：Every time I teach a new class. The night before I’m very nervous. You don’t know what the kids are going to be like and how they might behave, or if they’re going to like you.Presenter ：Anything else?Monica ：Doing interviews like this.Unit 3 Crime watchInside viewConversation1Kate ：So, what did you think of the movie?Mark ：It was good but I thought it was too long.Kate ：Yes, me too.Kate ：Hey, where’s my bike? I don’t believe it! It’s gone!Mark ：It was next to mine, you chained it up!Kate ：Someone’s stolen it! Oh, how could they!Mark ：Oh, Kate!Kate ：How could someone have done this! The creep!Mark ：It’s a really mean thing to do, steal a bike.Kate ：It was a mountain bike and it cost a fortune –I don’t have the money to buy another one.Mark ：Listen, I’ll go down the street and see if I can see anyone with it. Why don’t you go intothat shop and see if they’ve seen anything suspicious? I’ll be back in a minute. Kate ：OK.…Kate ：Well?Mark ：No luck. What did they say in the shop?Kate ：I asked the shopkeeper if she’d seen anything –Mark ：And?Kate ：She said she hadn’t. I guess it was a long shot. She advised me to report it to the police.But according to her, bikes get stolen all the time around here.Mark ：Listen, let’s get back so you can report it.Kate ：I’ve got no bike. I’m just so upset!Mark ：It’s not far to college. Come on!Conversation2Mark ：So did you ring the police?Kate ：Yes. I went to the police station to report it.Mark ：What did they say?Kate ：No one’s found it. This woman said that Oxford has the fifth highest rate of bike theftin the country!Mark ：You’re joking!Kate ：That’s what she said.Mark ：What else did she say?Kate ：She told me that sometimes you do get bikes back –the thieves use them and then abandon them, apparently, and then people find them and report them. Mark ：So you might get it back.Kate ：I hope so, Mark, I really do. I t’s just too much you know? But …um …what else? She told me to go to this sale they have of abandoned bikes. She thinks I might find it there. But it’s only every two months, I can’t wait till then! Honestly, Mark, I’m really furious!Mark ：You can always buy a cheap bike on eBay.Kate ：Hello …Speaking …You found it! Where was it? Is it …? Oh, that’s fantastic news!There was a lamp and a basket on it …Right …OK, thank you, I’ll be in tomorrow morning to pick it up. Unbelievable! This guy found it!Mark ：Brilliant! Was that the police?Kate ：Yes. What they said was, someone dumped it outside this guy’s backyard. Mark ：That’s so strange!Kate ：The lamp’s been stolen and the basket.Mark ：Forget about it! You’re lucky to get it back!Outside viewPart1PresenterDodgy deals aren’t the only problems associated with doorstep sellers. Your doorstep presents these unannounced visitors with a real opportunity to undertake distraction burglary where they often pose as bogus officials to gain access to your home.I’m joined now by Ian Holt, from Thames Valley Police. Ian, just outline for me what does distraction burglary actually entail?IanHoltWell basically what happens is, somebody uses a story to get inside somebody’s house and then they steal items, usually cash or small items of jewellery. PresenterAnd what are the different techniques that are commonly used?IanHoltWell basically the er …the people that commit this crime move from area to area, er …they will look at an area, they will try and pick a particular target and they can find that by looking at property, it may beer, an uncut garden, it may be repairs that need doing to the property. Something that indicates that there’s, there’s a vulnerable person in there. It …usually, it’s an elderly person that lives there. Is this quite a common problem now? It is becoming more common. To get it in perspective, of the 14,000 burglaries that were in Thames Valley last year, we had reported 800 crimes of distraction burglary.But, it …there’s a slight increase this year over last year’s figures.OK, you mentioned some of the victimsbeing elderly. What other people aretargeted?Well, unfortunately, with this type of offence, it is the vulnerable in society and the elderly. The, the national average, if there’s such a thing as a, a victim for this type of crime, is a white female aged 81 years.And what about things that people can do to prevent it happening, basically? Well the things they can do are very, very simple. The difficulty comes, is that some of these people, er …it’s very difficult for them to remember what to do. But the three things we, we always say is: stop, chain and check. And that’s stop before you open the door to make sure who’s on the other side. Always apply a chain. If you haven’t got a chain, fit a chain to the door, or a door bar if you’ve got difficulty inhandling a chain with arthritic fingers.But also when you answer the door, check the identity of the person there. Generally the offenders say they are from the Water Board or from utilities. They may say they’re from a charity or even from local authority. But generally, a utility will be in uniform.Ask for their identification. A genuine person will not mind you doing that and will wait until you can check them out. If you do need to check them, phone the number on, on your last bill. What won’t happen is that if it is a bogus caller, they will become unnerved by this reaction and they will leave.PresenterOK and there’s also a couple of gadgets new on the market that also can help as well. Just talk us through that.IanHoltCertainly, yes. The …a spy er …viewer is fairly standard. But for elderly who may have poor eyesight there’s a spyscope which actually makes it a lot easier for them to see who’s outside.As I mentioned before about the door bar, again, it can be easier to apply than the chain. Very reasonable priced er, and something that is fairly new …as I mentioned before it’s very difficult for some of these people to remember what they have to do when they go to the door and that’s why they become victims.And this item is called a Memo Minder and actually you can record a message on there and it’s nice to have a grand-daughter or somebody to record a message, but every time the person approaches the door it reminds them with a voice to say “Putyour chain on.”Listening inPassage1Patrick ：I read a funny story today in the paper –true story.Steve ：Go on, then.Patrick ：OK. This 72-year old guy stole a pair of trousers from a department store in Paris. Asecurity man saw him and alerted the police and they were waiting for him when he came out of the shop. The shoplifter started running, but the policeman soon caught up with him. The man thenbit the policeman on his arm several times. Steve ：He bit the policeman?Patrick ：Yes –you have to remember, he was 72.Steve ：I’d forgotten that.Patrick ：Problem was, it didn’t hurt the policeman at all, ’cause the guy had forgotten to put his false teeth in before he left home.Steve ：Very funny!Patrick ：And the moral of the story is –Steve ：Always remember to wear your false teeth if you’re going to bite someone. Patrick ：That’s good. I read a funny crime story the other day. Let’s see …yeah …this guy …this guy robbed a supermarket somewhere in America –I can’t remember where exactly –anyway, he got away with about 4,000 dollars. The next week the local newspaper reported the story but said he’d stolen 6,000 dollars. The thief rang the newspaper office to complain. He said, “Look, I only took 4,000 dollars. I’m wondering if the supermarket manager took another 2,000 and said I’d taken it. I did not take 6,000, I promise you.”Steve ：He was probably telling the truth.Patrick ：He probably was. Anyway, the newspaper managed to keep the guy talking while theyrang the police. And the police traced the call –the guy was ringing from a phone booth –and they arrested him while he was still talking to the newspaper.Steve ：That’s good. Stupid guy! I’ve got another true story …This –this –old guy was in court for some crime –and he fell asleep. His case began and his lawyer stood up and said, “My client pleads not guilty.”The man suddenly woke up, but wasn’t sure what was happening. He jumped up and shouted, “I plead guilty! I plead guilty!”Patrick ：So what happened?Steve ：The judge allowed him to plead not guilty.Patrick ：That’s the best, I think.。

2012-2013-2大学英语二（视听说）口语考试Part I Speech (40%)Directions: Please make a speech according to the given topic. Your time limit is 1 minute.1.Do you think music can affect people’s lives? Why?Yes, I think music can affect people’s lives. Nowadays, music has be come indispensable part in our daily life and made a profound impact on many people. Firstly, music can meet our requirements by easing our min ds and comforting our bodies. Secondly, when you feel depressed, it will cheer you up. When you feel angry, it may make you calm down. That is t o say, you are always will be able to find yourself in music.In any way, music is affecting us.2.What do you think about buying pirated CDs or books?It is like stealing something from other people who have put in t heir hard work to create music or film. The writers and directors who create these movies and music always behind the screen. They are n ot directly visible. We should honor their effort. At least not buy pira ted music and Movies. But in this regard，I have one superb idea. Shopkeepers should release their DVDs and CDs in lower prices. Let people can buy and view original DVDs an d CDs. But most of shopkeepers release their DVDs and CDs in high prices. That's why normal kind of people purchase pirated CD andDVDs.3.What types of movies do you like? Why?ComedyBecause it can always bring me happiness, make me forget som e troubles and unhappy things. There are some things in the real life that make people feel sad, but comedy can make people laugh again. Besides, from my childhood to now I’m always crazy about cartoon . There's no reason, I just love it. But with increase of age, the type t hat I like has changed.4.Can you recommend a movie to me?Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray StoryIn this film, the parents of this actress take drugs. When she is 8 year s old, she began begging. 15 years old, her mother died of AIDS. Fat her put into the shelter. At 17, she prepares to use 2 years time to fini sh high school four years course. Finally, she get first scholarship in 1996 of the New York times and into Harvard study.It’s a spirit upward movie. Bring me a lot of shock and moved. As fa r as I am concerned ,it is really a good film.5.Who is your favorite director or actor or actress in China andabroad? Why?6.Do you believe in love at first sight? Why?I do not believe in love at first sight. When you see someone for the first time, you can only feel attracted to their appearance, it is imposs ible to learn about someone's personality and character through sight only. Falling in love with someone requires that you know him well and understand the way he thinks. When you see someone for the fir st time, the only feelings that can be mustered are those of lust. Fe eling attracted to their body and feeling the urge to be with them is often mistaken with feelings of love. We need to learn the differenc e between these if we are ever to succeed in finding true love.7.What do you know about wedding traditions in China or westerncountries?There are many customs in Chinese wedding. Now, I just say o ne point. In traditional China, the newlyweds wear Tang suit. The bri des sometimes wear cheongsam. Most of the newlyweds choose red suit, because red symbolize happy and lucky in China. For example t he bride covers red cloth and the groom pins a large red flower on hi s suit. All the things are new that means a new start of the life.8.What do you think of the dating programs on TV? Nowadays, with the aid of the public media everyone can show them selves. Such as to meet the other half of life. But in the TV commerc ial packaging, it is no longer so simple. In the pursuit of ratings and the drive of economic benefits, the television stations first focus that whether the program attracts the audience. On the other hand, some of the guests would like to take this opportunity to increase the expo sure rate. Not really want to find the other half of life.9.Should people buy things according to what ads say? Advertisings are full of our lives now. There is no doubt that buying things according to the ads can save lots of time. However, when yo u really use it, especially those who posts their ads online. It will cau se some troubles which may really makes your time lost. Ads exist a s a kind of suggestions but not a choice. Get full suggestions and use your own eyes to select goods can have great fun.10.What qualities must a person have to make big money?To make big money, one should acquire a good education as a fi rst step. However, not everyone who graduates from a privileged uni versity can always thrive in business. One also needs a high IQ and a high EQ. With high IQ, one can easily understand a new situation a nd find opportunities. With a high EQ, one tends to get along well wi th people.

We have a public speaking course. This coursegives us a reliable model for preparing and delivering effective presentations. It is amazing. I really enjoy practicing what we learned and then watch the videos of our own presentations. The instructor makes it very easy to feel comfortable and keeps us engaged the whole time.We have a course named "What if Harry Potter is real?" "It is different from Harry Potter courses at other colleges because of its focus on the"what if "questions. The professor leads us to ask questions about the nature and accuracy of history and examine Harry Potter texts for factual information as well as imagined events. Therefore, we can understand the differences between fantasy and reality and the ways in which history is used and misused.2. Our university has many interesting PE classes. Open water swimming course interests me the most. Besides swimming skills, it involves some techniques in diving.But the course only includes practical skills. I think it would be better to integrate some health and nutrition programs into the course.Our university has two half-credit PE courses: Personal Fitness and Fitness Lifestyle Design. The idea of taking PE virtually interests me the most. We are asked to record our heart rates before and after we exercise -- it's supposed to serve as proof that we did in fact complete the assignments.But there is a big loophole. A few students just cheat the online system by inputting the numbers without actually doing the exereise. I think our university needs to set up more barriers to prevent students from cheating the svstem Maybe asking teachers to sign a chart to confirm students did the required exereise will help.1-5 iProduceUnit project 1-4Reference:Hi everyone. The tradition we invented is Spring Equinox Marathon. Yes, marathon sounds a little bit cliche,but as a classic activity, marathon has its advantages. Spring is a season which makes people sleepy. If we hold a Spring Equinox Marathon, students will actively exereise. For one thing, this tradition will benefit their health. And for another, it will also increase students'self-confidence. Once conquering the marathon, students will find daily tasks simple by comparison.We hope this tradition will not only be an opportunity for students to relieve theirstress, but also help them to meet a better self. 1-6 Further listeningNews report 1D D CConversation 1C BD DPassage 1D C D1-7 iEnhanceListening practice 1D B C1-8 Unit testNews report 1D A CConversation 1A C APassage 1C A C新一代大学英语视听说教程2（基础篇）---Unit2 Unit22-2 iExplore 1: Listening and speakingPassage 1-1(1)88 pairs / eighty-eight pairs / eighty eight pairs(2) romantic feelings(3) be attracted(4) not attracted(5) desire(6) no Interest(7)249 / two hundred and forty-nine(8) aspects(9) benefit(10) greaterPassage 2-1B A DPassage 2-2(1) value(2) give up(3) occurs(4) standing by(5) recognize/recogniseNews report 1C DNews report 2C D2-3 iexplore 2: Viewing and speakingViewing and understanding 1C F GViewing and understanding 2(1)success(2) achievement(3) alone(4) occupy(5) caring(6) judge(7) respect(8) temper(9) shout at(10) exchanging(11) win(12) believe(13) doubt(14) miss(15) help(16)accept(17) control(18) friends(19)friends(20) family(21) center/centre(22) a secret(23)shouldn t/should notThinking and speaking 1Reference:1. I have a good friend who I met in high school. At that time, I was in my adolescence. I was stubborn and fought with my mom a lot. Instead of encouraging my prejudice against my mom, my friend helped me understand my mom Even though we are in different cities now. she always calls me and checks how I am doing.I had a toxic friend, who always made meuncomfortable. We met each other at an outdoors club. Each time we had a little disagreement, she would shout at me in front of everyone without thinking about how I would feel. Now, I just avoid meeting her.2. A friend in need is a friend indeed. I believe true friends will definitely stand by you and see you through the bad times. But toxic friends, no matter how intimate they usually seem to be, will quickly stay away from you or even laugh at you when you are in trouble.A good friend will sometimes reach you for nothing.You may just spend three hours on the phone discussing all the trivial things in your lives. But toxic friends hardly show up unless they want something from you.2-5 iproduceUnit project 1-5Reference:As we get older, the biggest things that we will remember are the times that we spent with our friends. But do you know people in different countries treat friends differently?Today I'd like to introduce to you some of the differences between China and Western countries in terms of friendship. I'm planning to approach this topic from three aspects, that is, ways to spend time together. friendship with the opposite sex and ways to deal with toxic friends.First. when spending time with friends, Chinese people prefer to go dining or singing. Chatting over a cup of coffee or playing cards is also an option. Some sports fans may like to watch a sports game together, either on TV or at the scene, or even make a team and play the sports themselves. For some young people, playing online games is a typical way to have fun with friends. Western people spend time with friends in more diversified ways. One of the most popular ways is to have a party with friends -- loud music, games and jokes. They may also have a yard sale, helping each other to get rid of some things they have no use for. Going to a lecture and cooking a meal together are preferred by those,who like to enjoy a peaceful time with friends.Second, in terms of friendship with the opposite sex, Chinese people tend to be more conservative. Two friends of the opposite sex may like each other's online posts frequently and help each other with various problems, but normally they will avoid being together alone and there are still many secrets they prefer to share with a friend of the same sex. By contrast, Western people are more open and direet with friends of the opposite sex. They treat friends of the opposite sex rather equally as same-sex friends. They don't mind being together alone to watch a movie or discuss a frustrating experience at school. They share more secrets with each other than Chinese people do, but this trustful relationship is also likely to develop into a romantic one just as much as it does between Chinese friends.Third, when dealing with toxic friends, Chinese people tend to be more tolerant about their friends'shortcomings, and will express their dissatisfaction more indirectly. When I was in high school. I had a friend who liked to give others various nicknames. Some of the nicknames were funny but some were less acceptable. As friends, we didn't say anything about this even when we felt unhappy about the nicknames he gave us. Differently, Western peple seem to share a set of principles even as friends. So when one of them breaks the principles, their friends will complain about it more directly and an apology is expected.All in all, there is a range of differences betweenfriendships in China and in Western countries due to their different cultures. However, in spite of the differences, friendship is valued and cherished in China andWestern countries just as much as in the rest of the world because of the shared joy and comfort that derive from this very basic human relationship.2-6 Further listeningNews report 1A BConversation 1C B BPassage 1A C C2-7 iEnhanceListening practice 1C C A2-8 Unit testNews report 1A D CConversation 1A B DPassage 1D D C新一代大学英语视听说教程2（基础篇）---Unit3 Unit33-2 iExplore1: Listening and speakingConversation 1D BConversation 2(1) rise(2) pictures(3) a vital tool(4)face-to-face / face to face(5) emotionalPassage 1A A APassage 2ANews report 1D CNews report 2A C3-3 iExplore 2: Viewing and speakingViewing and understanding 1(1) directing(2) experience(3) practice(4) message(5) immediately(6) deliver(7)attention(8) seem(9)recognizes / recognises(10) behavior / behaviour(11) direction(12) focusedViewing and understanding 2(1) trust(2) mindset(3) qualifications(4) positive(5) prospects(6) chargeThinking and speaking 1Reference:I think pre-suasion is an effective way to influence others in our daily life. Professor Robert Cialdini mentions that pre-suasion is the art of influence by capturing attention. Instead of changing what people think, we can direct their attention .A person with skillful method of pre-suasion can get the right chance to influence others effeetively in his dailylife.It is out of question that pre-suasion works wellin business,but I don't think it is an effective way to influence others in our daily life.Just as the three examples Cialdini mentions in the video clip, they are all about business, not about our daily life. In my opinion, to influence others in daily life takes much more than in business. Generally we can be influenced by a genuine heart but not by skillful pre-suasion. After all, those around us, whether they are our friends or our relatives, know who we are quite well. A genuine attitude is much more effective than a skillful method in our daily life.3-4 practice: PronunciationPractice 13-5 iproduceUnit project 1-4Reference:(Li Ming is having a video conversation with his parents two weeks before the summer holiday.)Mother:Honey, summer holiday is coming and I'm going to book your ticket back home.

Today I'd like to introduce to you my favorite family activity -- our annualtraveling.Each summer, my family will travel together. I remember thistradition began since I was five years old. My parents decided that we should travel together regularly in order to build up the family tie as well as helping me accumulate practical knowledge and experiences. At first, we would travel to some other cities in our province. Later we began to travel to other provinces and even other countries. Our trips are usually one week long, which are just long enough for us to relax sufficiently. So far my family have traveled to almost every province in the country and more than 10 foreign countries such as Thailand, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland and Austria,to name just a few.The trips never get boring as we enjoy all kinds of things in the process, including beautiful scenery, interesting people, amazing local customs, and exotic souvenirs.But the most attractive part to me is what happens before the trips, that is, the planning process. Normally at the beginning of a new year. my family will get together and decide on the destination for this year. We will list the places we find interesting and explain the attractions of our choices. After we agree on a particular destination, we will split the work to prepare for the trip -- who will book tickets and hotels, who will pack the luggage, who will gather information of the destination,etc. So to me this family activity is not just a way to build up family relationship, but also an ideal learning opportunity. In other words, it is not just a stronger family tie that I gain by sharing all the fun and relaxation of traveling with my family, but a wealth of knowledge and skills that derive from the tasks and challenges of bringing each trip to reality.5-6 Further listeningNews report 1C C AConversation 1C D APassage 1B D A5-7 iEnhanceListening practice1A B B5-8 Unit testNews report 1B D CConversation 1C A BPassage 1C D A新一代大学英语视听说教程2（基础篇）---Unit6Unit66-2 iexplore 1: Listening and speakingPassage 1-1CEBADPassage 1-2(1) options(2)choices(3)results(4) priorities(5) identify(6)considerations(7)list(8)issueConversation 1C A AConversation 2News report 1C D CNews report 2D B6-3 iExplore 2: Viewing and speakingViewing and understanding 1D C A CViewing and understanding 2CDFThinking and speaking 1Reference:1. I think it's Gut. When I can't decide between two or more choices. I feel stuck. To get unstuck. I always follow my instincts -- I listen to my inner voice as to what action to take,and more often than not, it's the right one forme.2. Knowing what I value most. I always ask myself about what I value most when I have to make a hard decision. What is extremely important to me that I'd have a hard time living without? What are my personality strengths? Answers to these questions will help me create a list of values. For example, I value my family and hard work. When I know what I value most, I can make decisions much easier.I think we should include mission. It is vital that every big decision you make is within the scope of your mission. You don't have the mental or physical resources to spread your net too wide and still succeed. So always ask yourself which option best moves you toward your goal, and then the decision-making process will besimple.I think it is important to set a deadline. With the pressure of a time limit, you'll need to get to the heart of the matter faster, which you might not otherwise do.6-5 iproduceUnit project 2-2Reference:My major is computer programming. I like the idea of being a computer programmer and writing code which can be interpreted by a computing system to perform a meaningful task. But I feel that there would be something missing while journeying through my four years in college. One of my goals in college is to perfect my writing. That' s why I want to pursue a Chinese minor. I think writing is the most important form of communication. I believe that everything we learn is made more important if we can express it in writing. We can of course have physical conversations with people around us and we can educate people on a face-to-face basis, but everyone may have a different schedule and that means not everyone will be read to have a conversation with you when you want one. Writing easily resolves this issue because it allows a person to be S inspired by your ideas at any time. A Chinese minor would allow me to express my thoughts on anything and bring that on a platform, whether it's a book, or an essay. That can be acc essible to everybody.In addition, most people are likely to change jobs several times among different fields before retirement, according to some polls. What does this mean? It means the technical skills we gain through our major are only some of the skills that we will need in our career. Good writing will be one ofthe most important skills we have in the workplace. And a minor in Chinese will help me develop this transferable skill.6-6 Further listeningNews report 1BBConversation 1B B APassage 1D D D6-7 iEnhanceListening practice 1 A C D6-8 Unit testNews report 1A C CConversation 1B A CPassage 1D A C新一代大学英语视听说教程2（基础篇）---Unit7 Unit77-2 iexplore 1: Listening and speakingPassage 1-1CEPassage 1-2(1)2000 / two thousand / 2 thousand(2）punishment(3) principles(4) precision(5) wine(6) physical(7) centuriesConversation 1C A DConversation 2(1) smartphone apps(2) in person(3) most popular(4) security(5) launchNews report 1D C DNews report 2C A C7-3 iexplore 2: Viewing and speakingViewing and understanding 1A D AViewing and understanding 2CDEThinking and speaking 1Reference:1.

Since the printing of these medical models is so accurate, surgeons can also plan a surgery on a printed model before the real patient goes under the knife. This will be good news for medicine majors.I like to collect cups in my spare time. If it is possible, I can print different espresso coffee cups with 3D technology.2. Contemporary art has been greatly influenced by the rapid development in digital technoiogy and by the astonishing progression in the introduction of new, more attractive materials that artists can work with. These innovations have expanded horizons of creativity and opened new artistic frontiers. They have also allowed contemporary artists to reduce the time spent on the actual execution of artwork, thereby freeing them to focus more on contemplation, creativity and developing groundbreaking ideas.7-5 iproduceUnit project 1Reference:A: Have you ever watched Iron Man?

Unlike 3D or virtual reality, a hologram is a trulythree-dimensional and free-standing image that does not require a special viewing device.C: Right now, holograms have existed in certain sense. There are companies experimenting with them and many research and development departments trying to make them work for consumers.D: If some famous technology companies spill a little bitmore cash to research it, the technology won't be far from our life.

Personally speaking, I have followed such practices and activities to a large extent. For instance, on Fresh Green, I have always been going outside and sweeping tombs to honor departed ancestors.Well, I seldom follow these practices, because I think they are just ritual activities and only have symbolic meanings.2. As far as I am concerned, Beginning of Spring is the most meaningful solar term. As a Chinese saying goes, "The whole year's work depends on a good start in spring. "In my hometown, people observe the custom of "bite the spring" on that day, eating carrots or spring pancakes to celebrate the arrival of spring.I really like these practices.As far as I am concerned, Winter Solstice is the most meaningful solar term. Winter Solstice marks the day with the shortest period of daylight and the longest night of the year. Eating dumplings is a common folk custom for many Chinese on the day of Winter Solstice, especially those living in the north. It would be nice to eat dumplings with the family on that day. 8-5 iproduceUnit project1Reference:Qi Baishi was one of the most well-known modern Chinese painters. Everything he painted is bubbling with life, joy, optimism and often humor, and this reflected his own view of the world. Born to a peasant family from Xiangtan, Qi learned to paint byhimsself. Later, Qi Baishi received artistic training from Hu Qinyuan which consisted of fundamentals in gongbi mode, which features fine brushwork and meticulous detail. His landscape paintings came as a result of his next mentor Tan Pu. Because of his training, Qi then realized that he could pursue art as his full-time career. Despite his training in gongbi, Qi is famed for painting in the xieyi style.Qi Baishi's works have a fresh lyrical quality and seek to achieve a"likeness both in shapeand spirit"of the things he portrayed. He was able to suggest the essence of a subject with a few brief strokes. His mature painting style only emerged in the 1920s. He inherited both traditional Chinese freehand brushwork and folk arttechniques and gradually fused and assimilated them. Thanks to penetrating observation and consistent exploring, he blended and refined his techniques of painting and achieved a unique artistic style. The childlike quality of his paintings generally attributed to his rural background and his training as a folk artist. Qi Baishi retained a feeling of innocence throughout his long career. His paintings are mostly idea-oriented. His painting strokes are free, bold, innovative and confident. As an artistic proposition, he advocated that paintings must be something between likeness and unlikeness.Qi was one of the greatest Chinese artists. One ean perceive in his art a high sense of reality. He devoted his life to painting and left an important body of works for posterity. His creative ideas opened up a new road for Chinese painting and his paintings enjoy an international reputation.8-6 Further listeningNews report 1A C DConversation 1A B DPassage 1B C D8-7 iEnhanceListening practice 1C D B8-8 Unit testNews report 1B C CConversation 1B C DPassage 1D C C。
