1. The connotation of the American DreamThe so-called American Dream has the broad and narrow sense, broad sense refers to the symbolic beauty of the American Dream. the Statue of Liberty Equality country, freedom, and democracy is a narrow believe that in the United States through the efforts of unremitting struggle You will be able to get a better life for you, that is, people must through their own hard work, courage, creativity, and determination to move towards prosperity, rather than rely on specific social class and the assistance of others. Usually this represents success or entrepreneurial spirit of the people in the economy. Many European immigrants hold over the American dream to the United States.in September 16, 1620, "Mayflower" carrying 102 passengers from the United Kingdom to the North American Air Plymouth MaoSiqi create colonies. November 11 that year, "Mayflower" in the United States today anchored in Provincetown, Massachusetts, developed under the auspices of the Puritans on board "" Mayflower "the Convention", signed 41 free adult man on the Convention, then ship to sail, on December 21 reached colonial settlements, which is today Plymouth, Massachusetts. These colonists based on “Mayflower”, “Convention" set up "citizen-government", the provisions of the Convention: "In order to better manage, maintain and develop the local government, in the future, the public interest at any time to develop and fulfill the just laws decrees and administrative, we ensure compliance and obedience. "2.The Origins of the American Dream Historythe "Great significance" Mayflower "Convention" that it laid the foundation for the rule of law in the United States, outlines the general framework legislation. People have not come ashore, we first agreed to build a rule of law in North America rather than the rule of man's social system, according to the will of the majority of the people rather than a few rulers or the will power to manage society. "" Mayflower "Convention" contribution to human civilization can be par 1215, Britain's "Great Charter," 1776 US "Declaration of Independence" and the 1789 French "Declaration of Human Rights." American scholars generally believe that "Declaration of Independence" is the foundation of the American dream, Statue of Liberty is a symbol of the American dream. "All men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, including the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." This sentence has attracted men and women from around the world came to the United States to achieve their dreams. Various laws after "Declaration of Independence" as the Constitution established the American Dream has provided a guarantee rule of law, to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to realize their dreams, a country without a good system, no matter how personal the dream difficult to realize.In American history, Benjamin Franklin, Mark Twain and countless other politicians, social activists, writers used the "American dream" word. Obama 2008 presidential campaign, one of his best-selling book "The Audacity of Hope: a reaffirmation of the American Dream," inspired many Americans, earned him a lot of votes.3. The Characteristics of the American dream.All kinds of individual American dream dreams pregnant with universality, that is, no matter how you came from, no matter what your background, if you work hard you can achieve your dreams. It is like the American writer Thomas Wolfe (Thomas Wolfe, 1900-1938) American dream explained: "No one, regardless of how he was born, no matter what kind of society he has status, but no matter what he has blessed opportunities . he's right to exist, the right to work, the rightto live from me, have the right according to their own innate and acquired conditions to become the person you want to be. "American Dream of spiritual pursuit far better than the pursuit of material. American historian James Tel Slobodan Adams (James Truslow Adams, 1878-1949) in the "American Epic" (Epic of America) wrote: "The American Dream is far more than substance category, the American dream is to allow individuals to . fully developed, self-realization, "he said:" the American dream is not a car, not a high salary, but a social order, in this order, and all men and women can achieve the maximum that can be achieved on the basis of their quality achievement and social recognition, regardless of his (her) birth, social background and social status.In summary, despite everyone's dream is different, but the American dream in common is the "democracy, freedom and human rights." "Democracy" is a political system, it is the American dream of soil; a country that does not have a good system, that nation can only do "Daydream", any good dream difficult to achieve.4. The way to achieve the American dream."Freedom" is to achieve the American dream the way, reflects the American dream of respect for the individual citizen as well as "people-oriented," the governing ideas; everyone can have their own dreams, you can use your favorite way to realize their dreams; no freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, freedom of association, freedom of procession, of demonstration, freedom to strike, freedom of religion, freedom of communication these freedoms, it is cut off by the dream of a bridge leading to a dream come true. "Human rights" is the American dream content, which includes the right to life, the right to education, the right to work, freedom of movement, the right to vote and to be elected and the right to criticize the government and the pursuit of happiness and the like.Of course, the American Dream is not static, nor is it perfect. Although the United States declared its independence in 1776, but until 1865 was the abolition of slavery until 1870 expressly granted black men the right to vote until 1920 before a predetermined state shall deprive women of the right to vote. At any time of the passage of time, as human self-awareness continues to improve, with the progress of human civilization, people pursue lifestyles and social patterns are changing.Just as the Famous black American civil rights activist Martin Luther King in the speech "I Have a Dream" which revealed the true meaning of the American dream: the American dream in the constitution, the American dream is the implementation of the Constitution, if not formulated constitution implementation , then desecrated the dignity of the Constitution.5. The meaning of social status.Usually it refers to members of the community-based differences in social property, and in social relationships and their relative positions around the rights and obligations of this position is formed.From a sociological theory, the so-called social status refers to any social position have the rights and obligations from the social point of view provides, whether this position is high or low social status of an individual in the system of social relations in which the position, whether this position is a natural formation or the formation of social division of labor needs. Employment is of course an important aspect of social status, social status but not mean employment, social status refers to a person in which the social life position, role and contribution to society. Indeed,to get social status, they must participate in social life, but there are paid to participate in social life and where people are free to participate in two social network location. Usually arranged according to social wealth, prestige, or power level of education and the amount taken. Relations of production is the foundation of all social relations, in a class society, the relations of production determined by the person's class status is a basic human social status. Everyone form a variety of social relations in certain society, they are likely to get a variety of social status. According to different criteria, we can put people's social status is divided into different grades sequences, such as class status, and political stat.6. The characteristics of social status.These social status staggered between each other, it is largely the same, generally can be summarized as ascribed status and is eligible for two types of self-position. The former refers to the innate fixed position, such as hereditary nobility, hereditary slavery, Father and Son and the like. The latter refers to the status acquired through efforts to obtain, such as professors, engineers, factory directors. Sociology attaches great importance to the status of the relationship between a variety of studies. The first is consistent with studies on the status and position contrary. Status means more consistent with the status of individuals have are now at roughly the same level, such as a person both high class status, educational status, occupational status. Social mobility and less hierarchical society, status consistency is strong. Position inconsistent contrary to personal status means a hierarchy of situations in different areas, such as a lower-class status have received a higher education status. Socio-economic status and social prestige status also have inconsistencies. Sociology is also very concerned about the problem of primacy, which refers to a person under circumstances unite inconsistent position, there is one of the most prominent position dominates other status, which determines the level of his overall position. In modern society, professional activities are often one of the most important activities of the main people to pay attention, so it is generally primacy.7. The meaning of social wealth.Social wealth means that workers in the production process created by having people use value of the product of labor; means of production into the community, areas of life has value and valuable substances. Social wealth, including natural resources, labor and product technology products and other forms of knowledge. Use value and value are two fundamental attributes of social wealth.The Meaning of wealth is related to economics. About Wealth economics, there are a variety of names, some call it material wealth, it was called natural wealth, it was called artificial wealth, was also known as wealth; explicitly wealth economics Marx called social wealth. The earliest definition of wealth to Xenophon possession useful to think of the good things, such as horses, sheep, land, and so is wealth. Obviously, this is only the wealth attributed to the use value. After Aristotle more clearly pointed out: "The real wealth is constituted by a useful value." He also said: “wealth is rich material which belongs to the family and the country's processed."8. The different categories of social wealth.In feudal society, the reality-based natural economy, people still insist on causing material wealth is the wealth of view. With commodity currencies economic development, capital relations also began to grow. Due to the large development of foreign trade generated mercantilist school, do not agree with the use value is the wealth of the traditional view that wealth is constituted by the currency or gold and silver. This is clearly understood as the exchangevalue wealth. Late mercantilists proposed dualistic concept of wealth, wealth that is considered both a man of wealth, but also natural wealth. As the seventeenth century Britain Thomas Meng said, the development of foreign trade, and strive to surplus, to make earn "human wealth" "was in the form of cash back to the country." At the same time he said: "Money is the life that trade" argument is wrong, not only because "the world has only a small amount of money in circulation when, had been large-scale trade exchange or replacement of the goods." Britain, France and later mercantilists as Mengkelieqin, also "on the one hand that monetary wealth. on the other hand, he said the country was not rich enough gold and silver, but it was the necessities of life .9.The Physiocrats view of social wealthWith the development of capitalism and the emergence of the Physiocrats, firmly opposed to merely exchange value understood as wealth, and wealth should put great emphasis on use value. They believe that the consumption of non-monetary gold and silver is not real wealth, can only consume pure agricultural products is the real wealth. As Physiocrats Quesnay wrote: "A nation's wealth is not determined by the total amount of monetary wealth"; "wealth is the source of human subsistence." Said: "As a commodity crop of view, is a combination of monetary wealth and physical wealth." Further development of classical economics, but also abandoned the physiocrats view. Its master of Adam Smith, the wealth that is only understood as the value of social wealth, and that is understood as the use-value material wealth. The so-called material wealth, he was referring to enjoy life for the "necessities, conveniences and entertainment products," or is the product of years of productive sectors. Smith's views on wealth have clearly dualistic nature. After the completion of classical economics by Ricardo and Say around Smith's definition of wealth dispute, split on one end of dualism. Say assertion that Smith believed that wealth is only "by the constitution or the value of material objects and not by itself constitute a material object," and asserts that "wealth and value proportional are the same to." Although he insisted Smith's definition of social wealth, it does not agree with Smith's labor theory of value.10. The meaning of the middle class.Generally refers to the middle class economic status, political and social status of cultural point of view, they were in the middle stage of the level of society, which is a seemingly clear, but in reality vague definition. The middle class (or middle class), refers to people of low levels of "physiological needs and security needs" are met, and moderate levels of "emotional needs and esteem needs" has been well met, but not the pursuit of high-level " self-actualization needs "class (or classes); Because the family is the cell of society, and most people's wealth is owned by the family as a unit, so the middle class consists of" middle-class families "component.The Middle class, mostly engaged in mental, physical or technology base, mainly by wages and salaries to make a living, generally well-educated, professional knowledge and strong professional capability and the corresponding family spending power; have some free time, the pursuit of life the quality of its work, the work of the object generally has a certain power and control over the management. At the same time, most of them have good citizenship, civic awareness and appropriate training. In other words, the economic status, political and social status of cultural point of view, they were in the middle stage the level of society.11. The meaning and characteristics of class.The social class is developed to a certain stage of production, namely, the production has been developed yet underdeveloped product. The nature of the class is that it is specific to therelations of production and linked, on the status of the economy in different social groups or community groups. The class is divided into different positions and different relationships forged by people who live in a specific socio-economic structure of the decision. Divided according to the number of people owning property: by the rich class, middle class and poor class composition. After being diluted class theory, Chinese social circles with social class instead of class this term.Class features: class is an economic category. Class is an economic category, the first refers to the class of human society is a certain community of social production system formed in the possession of relations of production is the most essential characteristics of the class, the rest of the features are derived from this essential feature , this is the inherent nature of class prescriptive.Class is a historical category. Human society is not never had class, "the existence of classes is only a certain historical stage of development of production linked" with the productivity of both the development of certain development but not fully appropriate to the circumstances.。

Now when we get to our findings I thought we could divide them up into the different zoneswe identified on the shore and the problems organisms face in each zone.So for the highest area.....The splash zone?Yeah, we found mostly those tiny shellfish that have strong hard shells that act as protection.But not from other organisms that might eat them, predators?No, that's not the main danger for them.But the shells prevent them from drying out because they're in the open air for most of the time. Right. And since they're exposed, they need to be able to find some sort of shelter,or cover themselves up, so they don't get too hot.Then in the middle and lower zones, nearer the sea, we need to discuss the effects of wave action...Yes, and how organisms develop structures to prevent themselves from being swept away,or even destroyed by being smashed against the rocks.I haven't done anything on the geological changes. I don't know what to put for that.No, we weren't concentrating on that. Maybe we need to find some websites.Good idea. I've got the lecture notes from Mr. Blake's geology course, but they're too general. But we could ask him which books on our Reading List might be most helpful.Right. OK, now I did a draft of the section of sources of possible error in our research,but I don't know if you agree.For example, the size of the sample, and whether it's big enough to make any general conclusions from.But I thought actually we did have quite a big sample.We did. And our general method of observation seemed quite reliable.But we might not be all that accurate as far as the actual numbers go.Yeah, we might have missed some organisms —if they were hiding under a rock for example.I wasn't sure about the way we described their habitats.I decided it was probably OK.Yeah, and the descriptions we gave of the smaller organisms, they weren't very detailed,but they were adequate in this context.I'm not sure we identified all the species correctly though.OK, we'd better mention that. Now, how we...S4We've been discussing the factors the architect has to consider when designing domestic buildings.I'm going to move on now to consider the design of public buildings,and I'll illustrate this by referring to the new Taylor Concert Hall that's recently been completed here in the city.So, as with a domestic building, when designing a public building, an architect needs to consider the function of the buildingfor example, is it to be used primarily for entertainment, or for education, or for administration? The second thing the architect needs to think about is the context of the building,this includes its physical location obviously but it also includes the social meaning of the building, how it relates to the people it's built for.And finally for important public buildings,the architect may also be looking for a central symbolic idea on which to base the design,a sort of metaphor for the building and the way in which it is used.Let's look at the new Taylor Concert Hall in relation to these ideas.The location chosen was a site in a run-down district that has been ignored in previous redevelopment plans.It was occupied by a factory that had been empty for some years.The whole area was some distance from the high-rise office blocks of the central business district and shopping centre,but it was only one kilometre from the ring road.The site itself was bordered to the north by a canalwhich had once been used by boats bringing in raw materials when the area was used for manufacturing.The architect chosen for the project was Tom Harrison.He found the main design challenge was the location of the site in an area that had no neighbouring buildings of any importance.To reflect the fact that the significance of the building in this quite run-down location was as yet unknown,he decided to create a building centred around the idea of a mystery--something whose meaning still has to be discovered.So how was this reflected in the design of the building?Well, Harrison decided to create pedestrian access to the building and to make use of the presence of water on the site.As people approach the entrance they therefore have to cross over abridge.He wanted to give people a feeling of suspense as they see the building first from a distance, and then close-up,and the initial impression he wanted to create from the shape of the building as a whole was that of a box.The first side that people see, the southern wall, is just a high, flat wall uninterrupted by any windows.This might sound off-putting, but it supports Harrison's concept of the buildingthat the person approaching is intrigued and wonders what will be inside.And this flat wall also has another purpose.At night-time projectors are switched on and it functions as a huge screen onto which images are projected.PART 2The auditorium itself seats 1500 people.The floor's supported by ten massive pads.These are constructed from rubber,and so are able to absorb any vibrations from outside and prevent them from affecting the auditorium.The walls are made of several layers of honey-coloured wood, all sourced from local beech trees. In order to improve the acoustic properties of the auditorium and to amplify the sound,they are not straight, they are curved.The acoustics are also adjustable according to the size of orchestra and the type of music being played.In order to achieve this, there are nine movable panels in the ceiling above the orchestra which are all individually motorized,and the walls also have curtains which can be opened or closed to change the acoustics.The reaction of the public to the new building has generally been positive.However the evaluation of some critics has been less enthusiastic.In spite of Harrison's efforts to use local materials they criticise the style of the design as being international rather than local,and say it doesn't reflect features of the landscape or society for which it is built.剑桥雅思听力11原文(test3)SECTION 1 Questions 1-10Questions 1-6Choose the correct letter, A, B or C.Free activities in the Burnham areaExampleThe caller wants to find out about events onA 27 June.B 28

His mum was expecting twins and they needed another bedroom."I don't mind sharing mine, “Franklin said."Babies cry all night.""I'll wear earplugs."But his parents wouldn't listen."This house is TOO small, “said his mum.Next day, there was a “for Sale “sign stuck by Franklin's door.Franklin and his best friend Josh stared at the words of doom."What am I going to do,Josh"said Franklin.Josh frowned. “Has your house got problems?Number forty's got problems and no one wants to buy it."Franklin stared at number forty.It looked all right to him."What kind of problems"he asked."Oh,mice and damp and really horrible wallpaperFranklin sighed. His house was warm and friendly and it had just been painted,worse luck.Mrs cox lived next door to Franklin in a little house that had once been the corner shop.Just then,she called out,"Hello,lads.Will you take..."Before she could finish,her dog Zack leaped out of her house.He jumped up at the boys,trying to lick their faces."Yuk!Down,Zack!"Josh giggled.Mrs Cox told Zack to get down."He hasn't been out all day.I've been a bit wobbly,"she said,tapping her legs."No worries,"Franklin smiled.He didn't mind taking Zack anywhere.He loved him to bits."I'm sorry you're moving,"Mrs. Cox said."So am I,"Franklin grumbled.Mrs. Cox patted Franklin on the arm."Never mind.Your house might take months to sell."For a week,it looked as if Mrs Cox was right.Only a few people came to look at the house and none of them wanted to buy it.Franklin's mum stroked her growing tummy and looked fed up.Upstairs,Franklin danced around with his underpants on his head in celebration.Maybe he wassafe.Maybe no one would buy his house.But a few days later_it must have been Thursday,because the smells from the pie factory were chicken and rhubarb Franklin came home from school to find a man in the kitchen.His name was Mr Bragg and was interested in buying the house.Mr Bragg wasn't interested in Franklin.He glared at Franklin and trod on his toes, without saying sorry. Franklin's heart sank when Mr Bragg said he wanted to come back for a second visit."Saturday morning,ten o'clock sharp,"he said.2 Franklin makes a planThat night,Franklin had a bad dream.Mr Bragg was sniggering at him,"You wait and see,boy.I'm going to have your house!"Then Franklin woke up."No,you won't,you tatty toe-cruncher! “he said angrily.At school,Franklin asked Josh what he was doing on Saturday.Josh shrugged. “Nothing much.""Does your big sister still work in the fish shop"asked Franklin.Josh nodded."Good.Listen,I've got a job for you..."Franklin cupped his hand over Josh's ear and began whispering his plan.When Josh heard what Franklin wanted,his mouth opened wide enough to swallow a dentist. "I can't do that!"he cried."I'll get into trouble!""You have to!It's my only chance,"Franklin begged.In the end,Josh nodded.He wasn't happy,but he agreed to do what Franklin wanted.3Something is fishyOn Saturday morning,Franklin's mum was in a flap. "Something smells horrible and I don't know what it is,"she said.She looked around in a panic."Your dad's outside checking the drains."Franklin smiled. He know what the smell was!Mr. and Mrs. Gates were still outside when Mr. Bragg rang the doorbell. Franklin let him into the houseMr Bragg stopped and sniffed the air."Ugh,what's that disgusting smell"he asked."It's Saturday.The factory does fish pie on Saturdays,"Franklin said.Mr Bragg frowned. “Isn’t the factory shut on Saturda ys""No.Fish every Saturday.That's why we call this Stinky Street.D'you want to see my bedroom" Upstairs,Franklin opened his bedroom door.Mr Bragg pointed to a huge,dark patch on the wall."What's that"he asked."Damp,"Franklin said."Mum made me cover it with a poster last time.""Hmm,"Mr Bragg snorted."Mind the mouse poo,"Franklin grinned,pointing to a pile of brown lumps."It gets stuck in the carpet.""Urgh!"Mr Bragg pulled a face."That's nothing,"smiled Franklin."Wait till you see what the rats do."At that moment,his mum arrived,"Hello,"she smiled."How's it doing""Your son was telling me about the rats,"Mr Bragg said,icily."Rats?What rats...""Oh,no!"Franklin yelled,pointing out of the window."What is it"asked Mr Bragg."That horrible Josh Barratt's coming!Quick!Hide!'yelled Franklin."Hide from Josh?Don't be silly,"Franklin's mum said.But Franklin ducked behind his curtains."Josh is a lovely boy!"Franklin's mum said, amazed.But Josh banged on the front door.He shouted football songs.He even burped through the letterbox. "Why you little..."Mr. Bragg gasped as Josh ran off."Er...would you like to see the bathroom"Mrs Gates asked,but Mr Bragg shocked his head."You're joking.I'm not staying here another minute."He ran downstairs and out of the door.4Mrs Cox joins inMr and Mrs Gates were very angry."You'd better explain what’s going on!"they told Franklin."Er...well...I-"Just then,there was a loud banging."It's coming from Mrs. Cox's house,"Franklin’s mum said, glaring at her s on."Fancy getting an old lady mixed up in this!""I didn't,"Franklin cried."I really didn't!"The banging grew louder and louder.Then Zack started barking.Something was very wrong.Mr. abd Mrs. Gates and Franklin dashed into Mrs. Cox's house.She was lying by her stairs,where she had tripped.Franklin helped his dad lift her carefully onto a chair.Mr Gates wanted to take her to hospital but Mrs. Cox wouuldn't go."I'm not leaving Zack," she said.So they rang her son Eric,and he came to help her.Mrs Cox was still in big trouble.He ran back home and took the fish out of the back of the radiator.(Josh's sister had given it to him.)He vacuumed up the chocolate drops on the carpet in his bedroom.Then he dried the lemonade on his bedroom wall.He said sorry to Josh for getting him into trouble,too.At last,he said sorry to his mum and dad.His mum was very upset."We know you love Stanley Street.We all do-""-But there won't be space for all of us,when the twins arrive,"his dad said firmly."We have got to move to a bigger house.""I know,"Franklin said,sadly.Weeks passed but no one came to look at the house.Winter was coming and Franklin began to feel hospital.Nobody wanted to move in winter,did they?But one day,Franklin came home from school to find creepy Mr Bragg in the kitchen again.He'd found out about Franklin's tricks and he still wanted their house."Those Gates have got to move,"Mr Bragg said to himself."I'll get their house cheap!"He smiled slyly and gave Franklin's mum a piece of paper with a price on it.It was a very low price."Let me know tomorrow if I can buy it,"Mr Bragg smirked."Make up your mind.No one else wants it." "We'll think about it,"Mrs Gates said,going pale."Do we have to sell to HIM"Franklin cried as soon as he'd gone."I expect so,"said his mum.Franklin was furious.How could his mum and dad sell to Mr Bragg?Even the delicious smell of lamb and bananas coming from the pie factory didn't help."I'm going to take Zack for a run,"Franklin said."A long run.To Scotland.""Oh,dear."said his mum.Mrs Cox took ages to answer the door.She was even slower on her feet since her fall.‘I was coming round to your house!”Mre Cox beamed.’Is your mum in I’ve got something to ask her.’‘Yes,’ said Franklin. He wasTrying to stop being licked to bits by Zack.‘Bring him back by tea time ,’. Mrs Cox called as he set off with the dog.‘ I will ‘ Franklin said.‘I was talking to Zack’,Mrs Cox joked.When Franklin came back, Mrs Cox was just leaving his house. ‘How was Scotland ‘she joked. "Cold, “said Franklin, crossly.Mrs Cox laughed as if he'd cracked the funniest joke ever."You'd better get inside and warmup,then,"she told him,grinning.Franklin felt grumpy."I don't know why Mrs Cox thinks moving house is so funny..."He stopped.His mum was dancing round the room with-yes-underpants on her head!"What's going on"he asked."Wait and see!"she laughted.It was Christmas time in Stanley Street.There was no "For Sale"sign outside Franklin'shouse.Instead,there were piles of bricks and cement from the builders."That was a great idea of Mrs Cox's,"Josh said."You bought her house and knocked both of your houses together-""-So we had one big house,"grinned Franklin."Then the old corner shop downstairs was made into a little flat for Mrs Cox and Zack.Now you get lots of bedrooms upstairs...""...and Mrs Cox and Zack get a safe place downstairs.""So everybody'shappy.""Except Mr. Bragg, “Franklin grinned. “He’s bought number forty!"。

Lesson ElevenSection One: News in BriefTapescript1. Texas Air announced today that it will buy the troubled People Express Airlines for about a hundred and twenty-five million dollars. The proposed deal would allow most People Express employees to keep their jobs, although the company will eventually lose its identity and become part of Texas Air. Federal officials must approve the merger. Texas Air is also trying to buy Eastern Airlines.2. A rally on Wall Street today after six consecutive losing sessions, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the day up nearly nine points, to close at seventeen sixty-seven point fifty-eight.3. What's being called a 'freedom flight" of seventy former Cuban political prisoners landed in Miami today to an ecstatic reception by thousands of relatives and well-wishers. The plane also carried forty one relatives of former prisoners. The flight culminated nearly two years of negotiations with the Castro regime.Section Two: News in DetailTapescriptTexas Air Corporation today announced that it has agreed to buy People Express Airlines for one hundred twenty-five million dollars in securities. Texas Air already owns Continental Airlines and New York Air. It is in the process of acquiring Eastern Airlines. People Express, one of the first no-frills, low-fare air carriers, has been in financial trouble lately. It was forced to shut down its subsidiary, Frontier Air flights. Texas Air now says it will acquire Frontier's assets as part of its deal with People Express. Joining us now from New York, NPR's business reporter Barbara Mantel.' Barbara, it is said this is a very attractive low price, this one hundred twenty-five million dollars in securities. Besides that, why does Texas Air want People Express?' "Well, Frank Lorenzo, who is Chairman of Texas Air, will get airplanes from People Express, which he might need. He will get the lowest cost work-force in the industry at People Express. He will get a new terminal at Newark, New Jersey that People Express is building. He'll get flights to London, and he will get control over competition. People Express competes heavily, especially in the northeast corridor, with Texas Air.''This issue of competition has been a sticking point before for the Department of Transportation when two airlines wanted to get together. How will Texas Air get around it this time?''Well, they might not. Texas Air wanted to acquire East ..., or wants to acquire, Eastern Airline, and the Department of Transportation said, 'No, not unless you sell more landing slots, more slots in the northeast corridor to Pan Am so that we'll have some competition there.' And Texas Air agreed to that just last week. That may happen again here. The Department of Transportation may require that Texas Air sell some slots or some gates to another airline to ensure that there is still competition in the northeast part of the marketplace. But Texas Air has some leverage here with the Department of Transportation because People Express is a failing company. And the Department of Transportation may feel, 'Well, we'll let them buy PeopleExpress and keep it running, rather than let it fail and lose all those jobs.'"'Mm hm. Now, if the deal is approved by the Department of Transportation, what is it likely to mean for consumers? If there's less competition the fares could possibly go up. "'Well, yes. You would think that when you move from two competitors in a market to just one airliner that prices would just have to go up. But I want you to keep in mind that unrestricted fares of the kind People Express offered, you know, wholesale unrestricted fares, were being eliminated and phased out anyway, because they were not profitable. And the Department of Transportation theory here is that if you allow mergers to take place, or many mergers to take place, you might create more efficiencies and low costs, leading possibly to lower fares. And also the Department of Transportation believes that there's a lot of potential competition in the marketplace. Airlines can move planes around and buy gates, and so that if an airline in a particular market segment was making a lot of money and raising prices excessively, other airlines would move in and prices would be brought down through competition. So that it's a nice theory, the theory of potential competition keeping prices in line, but it's sort of a new idea and it's not clear that that's really the way it would work.''Thanks.' From New York, NPR's Barbara Mantel.Section Three: Special ReportTapescript"My audiences have been very devoted over the years throughout the country. And they've expanded and grown and the country audience has been just as kind and as supportive as the folk audience has been.''I was thinking though, nonetheless, when I put on this album, 'The Last of the True Believers,' especially the title cut, that I heard more country there than I'd perhaps heard before.""Well, I guess it has .-.. I've moved in that direction, mainly because I am playing with the band more. My natural roots are there in country and hillbilly music. And so I think that that just comes out more when you put the band with it."I'I want to ask you some questions, please, about this album, about the ... not so much what's on the inside right now, but what‟s on the outside - a picture on the front of you in front of a Woolworth store, someplace, I guess, in Texas or Tennessee, and 'Houston, Texas.' In Houston, Texas? Is it the Woolworth store that has the hardwood floor still 'and the parakeets in the back and that sort of thing?'"Well, this one that we shot this in front of in Houston Texas is one of the largest ones in the country. It's a two-storey and it's got the escalator that does a little pinging noise every couple of minutes. And it takes up a whole city block.""But, why a cover photo in front of Woolworth's?''Well,, that comes from the song 'Love at the Five and Dime,' which was a song that Cathy Mattea also cut this year and had my first, you know, top five country hit with. And it deals with the Woolworth store.'"There is, on the cover, you are holding a book, and you can‟t really see. ... What is the name of the book on the cover you're holding?''In the Kindness of Strangers, the latest Tennessee Williams' biography.''And on the back is Larry McMurtrie's book about a cattle drive around the turn of the century, Lonesome Dove.'"He's my main prose hero.''Now, why? Why would you do that? Why would you pose with a book?'"Well, I have, my audience consists of a lot of young people between the ages of, maybe you know, fourteen and twenty-f'ive. And I read a lot, and I also write short stories and have written a novel. And I just feel like young people are missing out because they don't read books. And any time I have the opportunity to influence the young person to pick up a book and read it, I would try to do that.''When you hear these lyrics, when the words come to you, are you hearing the stanzas as poetry or as music?''Well, I'm hearing them as music. Lyrics usually come to me, and songs come to me as a total picture. And the music and the lyrics come at the same time. Sometimes they shoot me straight up in bed, you know, in the middle of the night. 'The Wing and the Wheel' is a very special song to me. It's probably my favorite song that I've ever written. And that song was inspired at the Vancouver Folk Festival by two people who are from Managua, Nicaragua. They have a duo call Duo Guar Buranco. And just about four o'clock in the morning, I was sitting in my hotel room and listening to them sing in the room next door, and looking out the window at this little fingernail moon hanging out over the Vancouver Bay, and that song just came flowing, you know, and was inspired by those two people.''Now, that sounds easy.''Well, it IS easy. If you listen. to yourself and you listen to the inspiration that's bringing on that particular song, it's easy. It's just a matter of getting up and writing it down.' Nancy Griffith, talking with us in WPLN in Nashville. She is continuing her national tour with the Everly Brothers. Her latest album is called "The Last of the True Believers.'Lesson 12Section One: News in Brief1. American reporter Nicholas Daniloff is in Frankfurt, West Germany, on his way home from Moscow after being detained for a month on espionage charges. President Reagan in Kansas City on a campaign swing announced Daniloff‟s release, denying that any trade had been agreed to in order to win his freedom. Asked by reporters if he blinked in staring down Soviet leader Gorbachev over the Daniloff affair, the President said they blinked. The agreement to release Daniloff came after a three-hour meeting last night in New York between Secretary of State George Shultz and Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze. No details of the agreement have been released, and it is not known if Daniloff‟s freedom is the first step in a trade involving accused Soviet spy Gennadi Zakharov. When he arrived in Frankfurt, Daniloff thanked President Reagan, Secretary of State Shultz, and other US officials for “dotting all the i‟s and crossing the t‟s” that permitted him to be in Frankfurt tonight.2. The House of Representatives is expected to vote soon to override President Reagan‟s veto of a bill imposing economic sanctions against South Africa. NPR‟s Cokie Roberts reports that the President has promised to expand economic sanctions on his own in hopes of getting Congress tosustain his veto. “Both houses of Congress passed the economic sanctions against South Africa by wide enough margins to override a presidential veto. And it‟s expected the House will easily garner the two-thirds vote necessary for override. So it‟s in the Senate the President is concentrating his efforts. Today President Reagan sent a long letter to majority leader Robert Dole, restating his opposition to …punitive sanctions that harm the victims of apartheid. ‟ The letter went on to outline an executive order the President plans to sign which would impose some but not all of the sanctions passed by Congress. For example, there‟d be a ban on some new investments in South Africa, but not as many as called for by Congress. The President hopes the executive order will win over the fourteen additional senators he needs to sustain his veto. The Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee said today that Congress would simply come back next year with tougher sanctions if the veto is sustained. I‟m Cokie Roberts at the Capitol”Section Two: News in DetailAmerican reporter Nicholas Daniloff was freed today in Moscow. He flew into Frankfurt, West Germany this afternoon and spoke with reporters gathered at the airport.“It‟s wonderful to be back in the West. I think it‟s obvious to everybody what has happened over this last month. I was arrested without an arrest warrant. A case was fabricated against me with a narrow political purpose of giving the Soviet Union some political leverage over the case of Gennadi Zakharov in New York. The KGB did not punish me; the KGB punished itself. I cannot tell you anything about any other arrangements. All I know is that I am free in the West, very grateful, delighted to see you.” Nicholas Daniloff.When Daniloff left the Soviet Union today he had been detained there for thirty-one days, facing a possible trial on espionage charges. Daniloff left Moscow only hours after Secretary of State Shultz and Soviet Foreign Minister Shevardnadze met last night in New York in the latest of four negotiating sessions concerning the fate the American journalist. But so far no details have emerged about the arrangements that brought Daniloff his freedom. NPR‟s Mike Shuster has more from New York.Reporters in Moscow who had been staking out the American Embassy there first got wind this morning that Daniloff might be released, after he left the Embassy in a car and flashed the “V for Victory” sign. Apparently Daniloff was simply informed that he could leave, and his passport was returned to him. He was then taken to the airport along with his wife, and soon thereafter boarded a Lufthansa flight to Frankfurt, West Germany. The official American announcement of his release came from President Reagan mid-day today as he was campaigning in Kansas City, Missouri:“I have something of a news announcement I would like to make, that in case you have‟nt heard it already, that at twelve o‟clock, twelve o‟clock Central time, a Lufthansa Airliner, left Moscow bound for Frankfurt West Germany, and on board are Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Daniloff!”So far though neither the White House nor the State Department has said anything about the specific agreements that ended the negotiations on Daniloff, and lacking any fuller explanation from the government, many questions remain. First, what will happen to the Russian scientist Gennadi Zakharov whose arrest last month in New York for spying led to Daniloff‟s detention? No date has been set for Zakharov‟s trial in Brooklyn, and a representative of the Justice Department in Brooklyn said today the US attorney there was waiting for instructions on the handling of Zakharov‟s case. There have been suggestions that Zakharov might be returned to the Soviet Union at a later date in exchange for one or more jailed Soviet dissidents. There is also thequestion of the American decision to expel twenty-five Soviet personnel from their Unite Nations Mission here. Several have already left New York and the deadline for the expulsion of the rest is Wednesday. The Soviets have threatened to retaliate if the order is not rescinded. There is no word whether the agreement that freed Daniloff includes anything on the twenty-five Soviets, which naturally leads to the final question: Has Daniloff‟s release today brought the United States and the Soviet Union any closer to a summit meeting? Secretary Shultz has said that a summit could not take place without Daniloff gaining his freedom. That has now been removed as an impediment to a summit, but the Soviets have called the Zakharov case and the matter of the twenty-five Soviets diplomats obstacles to a summit as well. Until the details are made public of the agreement Shultz and Shevardnadze worked out, it will not be known what the prospects for a summit truly are. This is Mike Shuster in New York.Section Three: Special ReportOne year ago this month, a powerful earthquake in Mexico City killed more than nine thousand people. Tens of thousands of people lost their jobs because of the massive damage. Among those hardest hit by the quake were women garment workers. Who worked in sweatshops concentrated in the heart of Mexico City. One year after the earthquake, Lucie Conger reports that some of the forty thousand seamstresses who lost their jobs are changing their attitudes about work.Lesson ThirteenSection One: News in BriefTape-script1. A special committee of twelve senators today began the impeachment trial of Federal Judge Harry Claiborne. It's the first such proceeding in fifteen years. Claiborne is serving a jail sentence for tax evasion.2. President Reagan today continued his campaign for a drug-free America. He ordered mandatory testing for federal workers in sensitive positions. And he also sent Congress a legislative package that would increase federal anti-drug spending by nine hundred million dollars, much of that on increased border patrols. The President said the legislation is the federal government's way of just saying no to drugs. "We're getting tough on drugs; we mean business. To those who are thinking of using drugs, we say 'Stop.' And to those who are pushing drugs, we say 'Beware.' " Mandatory drug testing for some federal workers is the most controversial part of the President's plan. It's been condemned by some employee groups.3. One person was killed and more than fifty injured today in Paris when a bomb exploded at the drivers' permit office at police headquarters. It was the fourth blast in seven days in the French capital.Section Two: News in DetailTapescriptIn Paris today, one person was killed and more than fifty were injured when a bomb exploded at police headquarters. This is the fourth attack on a crowded public target in a week.A police officer was killed yesterday while removing a bomb from a restaurant on the Avenue Champs Elysee. Minutes after that incident, Prime Minister Jacques Chirac announced new security measures aimed at curbing terrorist activities in, France. Melodie Walker reports from Paris.A group calling itself 'the Committee for Solidarity with Arab and Middle-Eastern Prisoners' has claimed responsibility for the current series of bombings in Paris, in addition to ten other attacks in the French capital over the past year. The Committee has delivered messages to news agencies in Beirut threatening to continue its bombing campaign in Paris until the French government agrees to release three men jailed in France on charges of terrorism. One of the convicted prisoners, George Abraham Abdullah, is believed to be the leader of the Lebanese Army Faction suspected of killing a US military attached in Paris in 1982. The French government has officially declared it will not release the prisoners. In response to the repeated attacks in Paris, Prime Minister Chirac last night announced new anti-terrorist measures: military patrols along the French borders will be increased and, beginning today, all foreigners will require a visa to enter France. Citizens of European Common Market countries and Switzerland will be exempt from the visa requirement. But Americans planning to visit France will need to apply for visas at the nearest French consulate. For an initial period of fifteen days, however, emergency visas will be granted at French airports and other border checkpoints. France has been plagued with terrorism at home and abroad in recent years. In the past two weeks, three French members of the United Nations peace keeping force in Lebanon have been killed by remote-controlled bombs. Today, France, called for an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to discuss the role and safety of the force. Seven French hostages in Beirut are also a major concern for the Chirac government. Dominique Moazi, Associate Director of the French Institute for International Relations, says the bombings in Paris, the attacks on the UN troops, and the hostage situation are all indirectly related. 'I think there is a global goal, which is looked after, and that is to punish France for its involvement in Middle-Eastern affairs, either Lebanon or the war between Iran and Iraq. And France is, at the same time, more visible than any other European actors, in Lebanon and in the Gulf.' According to Moazi, the long French tradition of granting political asylum has made France more open and accessible to terrorist activities."In the past we have given, unfortunately, the impression, which was maybe a reality, of being less resolute in our treatment of terrorist action than, for example, the Israelis. So that combination of visibility, vulnerability, and lack of resolution has made us the ideal target of terrorists now.'In a statement released today, President Francois Mitterand said, ' The fight against terrorism is the business of the entire nation.' But despite the government's determination to combat terrorism, the question of how to do it remains unanswered.For National Public Radio, this is Melodie Walker in Paris.Section Three: Special ReportTapescriptThe United States Senate Intelligence Committee today released a report calling for sweeping changes in US security policies and counter-intelligence, its first unclassified assessmentof recent spy cases. The Committee says the damage done has cost billions of dollars, threatening America's security, as never before. NPR's David Malthus has the story. The report states that the damage done from espionage and lax security is worse than anyone in the government has yet acknowledged publicly. It concludes that US military plans and capabilities have been seriously compromised, intelligence operations gravely impaired. US technological advantages have been overcome in some areas because of spying. And diplomatic secrets were exposed to adversaries. V ermont Democrat Patrick Leahy is Vice-Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.'The national security is many times threatened more by this than by the buildup of Soviet arms, or the buildup of Soviet personnel, or breakthrough in weapon development." The Committee report says foreign intelligence services have penetrated some of the most vital parts of US defense, intelligence, and foreign policy structures. The report cites a string of recent cases, including the Walker-Whitworth spy ring, which gave the Soviets the ability to decode at least a million military communications.Despite some improvements by the Reagan Administration in security and tough talk over the last two years, the report also concludes that the administration has failed to follow through with enough specific steps to tighten security, and that its counter-intelligence programs have lacked the needed resources to be effective. Republican Dave Durenberger of Minnesota, Chairman of the Intelligence Committee, sums up the current situation this way:'Too many secrets, too much access to secrets, too many spies, too little accountability for securing our national secrets, and too little effort given to combating the very real threat which spies represent to our national security.'Senator Durenberger said the Committee found some progress has been made in toughening up security clearances for personnel, and some additional resources have been devoted to countering technical espionage, but he said much more needs to be done and he described the current security system as one 'paralyzed by bureaucratic inertia.' The Committee makes ninety-five specific recommendations, including greater emphasis on re-investigations of cleared personnel, a streamlined classification system, more money for counter-intelligence elements of the FBI, CIA and the military services, and tighter controls on foreign diplomats from hostile countries. The report cites FBI assessments on how extensively the Soviets use, diplomatic cover to hide spying activity. There are twenty-one hundred diplomats, UN officials, and trade representatives from the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact countries living in the United States. And according to the FBI, 30% of them are professional intelligence officers. The Committee report also says the Soviet Union is effectively using United Nations organizations worldwide to conduct spying operations. It says approximately eight hundred Soviets work for UN agencies, three hundred of them in New York, and one fourth of those are working for the KGB or the Soviet military intelligence, the GRU. Next week, the Reagan Administration is to deliver to. the Congress its, classified report on counter-intelligence. I'm David Malthus in Washington.。

学习的英语作文篇1English is the most important language in the world and it is one of the most important subjects in junior high so we should learn it well.Learning English just like learning other language, is hard work so we should spend lots of time on it every day. We should have good ways of learning English, such as listen to the teacher carefully,review what is learned regularly, prepare each lesson carefully before class, do our homework carefully, copy good sentences and recite them and attend English debbates and speech contests. What's more,it is very useful to listen to English programs and read English magazines and books. When we make mistakes, correct them at once. Don't be shy of asking others for help when we have difficulties. I believe" practice makes perfect". I am sure if we study hard, we will learn English well.学习的英语作文篇2English is more important now. But it is difficult for many students to study it. Now I make some suggestion, maybe can help you. First, you should take notes and take them here and there. When you’re free, you can take them out and r ead it. Next, you should read English loudly. Many students know many grammars, but talking with others is hard. So reading is very important. It can make progress in your talking and listening, andit can also make you get excited, let you have a nice day. Then, talk with people in English; it’s interesting and very used. Finally, most importantly, try your best to learn English. No pains, no gains. I hope you can improve your English. Good luck!学习的英语作文篇3Learning how to learn is one of the hot topics in education at the moment. In order to understand its importance, it is vital to understand the following two points. First, we should not follow other students’ way of learning. It is known to all that most students do not learn in the same way, they have their own ways to study. We have heard from other excellent students, they introduce their way of learning, while for ourselves, we should adjust our methods according to theirs, but not follow them in all. What’s more, many students do not take an interes t in the process of learning and expect that by simply going to a lecture, for example, they will automatically study the subject matter. It is impossible for them to learn better, they should work efficiently. If students master how to learn, they will have a better chance to acquire knowledge.学习的英语作文篇4Recently the issue of students’ study has been brought to public attention. Students are anxious about how to improve their scores. Some work very hard. They spend all their time on study. They do nothing except study. As far as I’m concerned, it is not a good way to study. Alternate work with rest is the best to study well. Students should try their best to learn knowledge as Francis Bacon said,”Knowledge is power”. However, they should have other recreational activities to relax themselves. Because people can do things more efficient after relaxed themselves’s more, people can obtain knowledge from manysources besides books, which is beneficial for study. Thus, bine exertion and rest is the best to study.学习的英语作文篇5We have maths class representative NiZhu beauty. She is a studious students well ah.

I took out the xinhua dictionary, she said: "I find myself, this record of prison!"On another occasion, at noon, I eat a meal to go to the classroom math. Come to the classroom, through the window, I saw two or three female classmate in an empty classroom, the most notable is NiZhu beauty. Zhang, when her thin lips bright big eyes with sparkly looked at reading the English book, oh ~ she is! I looked at her fortitude, dedicated attitude, can not help with respect.NiZhu beauty, I want to learn your hard working, I also want to learn your inquiring ask!学习的英语作文篇6In Chinese, people express modesty by saying that they gave all their knowledge back to the teacher. This implies that theperson never really owned the knowledge in the first place, but simply borrowed it from the teacher to pass the exam. But it also implies that the person never cherished this knowledge, because he or she never owned it, and so they neglected it and eventually forgot it. It's just like the difference between living in a dormitory and living in your own house. No one who lives in a dorm takes very good care of it, especially the public areas. But once you own a home, you make it beautiful and keep it clean because it has greater value to you. This is pride of ownership, and what is owned is cherished. What is cherished endures.As much as Chinese students appreciate their foreign teachers, they should not forget that responsibility for learning es from within, not from without. The teacher cannot "give" someone English. No one can "get" English from a teacher or from a book like one can get a cold. Responsibility for learning can only e from the learner, when he or she freely chooses to own the quality of his or her learning experience, versus relying on borrowed knowledge from experts.学习的英语作文篇7Study has been the important part of our life. Some people believe that when they go to work, they don't need to study anymore. It is the wrong conception about study. We are not only learning the knowledge from books, we are also learning things from life, so study is the lifelong mission.The knowledge we learn from school provides us a way to explore the world. In college, we need to learn professional skills, so we can find our place in the society. I believe that besides the skills, the way to think is the most important skill we should master. The ultimate goal of education is to let people have their own judgement.When we come to work, there are so many things for us to learn, such as how to make better communication or how to improve our own professional skills. Though we are not in school, we learn the practical knowledge all the time. The world develops every minute and we need to move on, or we will be kicked out.Study is the lifelong career. We are happy to learn more knowledge, because it means we are being perfect.学习的英语作文篇8Study has been the necessary part of human's life. Many students take it as their duty and they don't realize the meaning of study. Most people believe that the purpose of study is to master some skills and make money. This is the basic function of education. I believe that the further meaning is to teach people the way of thinking. If there are two jobs, one is to sell pastry for 12 hours, and the other one is to work in the office for 8 hours, but the former can earn double income. The young people will surely take the second job, because they need more private time to do their own things. They have more things to chase besides making the ends meet.学习的英语作文篇9English is more important now. But it is difficult for many students to study it. Now I make some suggestion, maybe can help you. First, you should take notes and take them here and there. When you’re free, you can take them out and read it. Next, you should read English loudly.Many students know many grammars, but talking with others is hard. So reading is very important. It can make progress in your talking and listening, and it can also make you get excited, let you have a nice day. Then, talk with people in English; it’s interesting and very used. Finally, most importantly, try your bestto learn English. No pains, no gains. I hope you can improve your English. Good luck!学习的英语作文篇10Three pursuits, general and simple, have governed my life: the kinship, the friendship, and the enjoyment of a time. These pursuits, like some apples on the tree, some of them I can get or touch, others, I have to try hard to get at. I cherish those I have, and pursue those I want.I have always had friendship. For me, it is not a difficult thing to get this apple. So long time I have gained strength from my friends, or received helps from those people. They are so important in my soul, as necessary as the air I breathed every day. Relaying on them, and lived for them. I don’t like school, but I like to stay at school for there arefriendships there, like home, which makes most of people feel a sense of belonging. So, this is what I lived for, I will die if I don’t have this and live alone.With a reason for relaying on friendship, I pursue my kinship.I don’t have a very happy family life with father and mother. They have broken up when I was five years old. I feel I was the excrescent one, and I hate go home , I was unwelcome. It was because this kind of unhappy, I desire to build a family of mine. Some day, I have my own home, without depending on someone else to live. I believe I can achieve it.Everybody don’t know how tomorrow will be like. As a goodsaying,” tomorrow and accident, you never which one will come first”, I think that’s reasonable. Things are changing, I’m unwilling to do too hard things for tomorrow but ignore to enjoy the moment of this day. That’s important. May be I belong to akind of person who never die with money left. Living in the moment, to enjoy the life.This has been my life. I have found it important to living, that’s the meanings of my life.学习的英语作文篇11As we all know, English is one of the most important languages in the world and it is one of the most important subjects in junior high. So it is necessary for us to learn it well. I have started learning English since at the age of 12. The teaching method is the mutual combination of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Everyone learns English in different ways. I think the best way to improve your English is to improve your English skills—listening, speaking, reading and writing. We should practice them every day. We should remember more words and grammar, reading more English story books or novels, watching more English TVs or movies, listening English tapes and repeating after the speaker. Second you are not afraid to make any mistakes when you speak English as much as possible. Third you ask the teachers w hen you don’t understand any knowledge. It ’s very good for you if you are interested in English. You will find studying English is interesting and helpful. One more thing remember??Practice makes perfect!There is no doubt that English is one of the world’s most widely used languages. It is the official language in the world. People always take it as a first language or language use. In this world is closely related to the society, if you don’t understand English, will lose a lot of employment and that is a pity! Mastering English is not only can win more opportunities, but also a life skill. Learning English, you can broaden their horizons, understanding the different person, a different lifestyle. What is more, Englishhas in fact become the language of international cooperation in science and technology. The most advanced results in space, nuclear and computer research are published in it.。

In my school, we sometimes have bullies and some students are hurt, so it is really bad for us to bully others or be bullied at school. So we will learn how to protect ourselves atschool.Here are some of my ideas about stopping school bullies. Firstly, We are supposed to stop any school bully when we are in the trouble of it. For example, we should keep calm before a bullying behavior happens. We should ask our teachers and parents for help as soon as possible or we can call the police in time. Secondly, we should be peaceful with others at all times and can’t have any rude behavior. We should always be friendly and helpful when making friends with others. Finally, following school rules is also a way to avoid school bullies.Let’s get together and make an effort to stop bullying. I’m hoping that no school bullies will happen at school in the future.2.校园欺凌事件屡有发生,而遭受校园欺凌的学生容易情绪抑郁、焦虑,不敢去学校,甚至会出现心理问题等严重后果。

初三英语书11单元作文Title: My Most Memorable Experience in Junior High School。
Throughout my time in junior high school, there have been numerous memorable experiences that have left alasting impression on me. However, one particular event stands out vividly in my memory.It was during the 11th unit of our English class when we were assigned a challenging task that required us to delve deep into our creativity and linguistic abilities. As we were instructed to compose an essay in English, I found myself both excited and apprehensive about the endeavor.The topic assigned to us was broad yet intriguing: "My Most Memorable Experience in Junior High School." Reflecting on my journey through these formative years, I realized that there was one experience that hadsignificantly impacted me.It was the annual school sports day, an event eagerly anticipated by students and teachers alike. Months of preparation and practice culminated in this thrilling day of competition and camaraderie. As a member of the school's track team, I had been diligently training for the relay race, determined to give my best performance.The morning of the sports day was filled with a palpable sense of excitement and nervous energy. The sun shone brightly overhead as students gathered on the field, adorned in their respective house colors, ready to showcase their athletic prowess.As the first races commenced, I watched in awe as my classmates sprinted across the track, their determination and enthusiasm contagious. When it was finally time for the relay race, my heart pounded with anticipation. I stood at the starting line, baton in hand, awaiting the signal to begin.The sound of the starting gun echoed across the field,and I took off with a burst of speed, focusing all my energy on the task at hand. As I ran, I could feel the eyes of my teammates and classmates urging me forward, their cheers spurring me on.With each stride, I pushed myself harder, determined to maintain our team's lead. As I approached the final stretch of the race, I could see the finish line drawing nearer. With one final burst of energy, I crossed the line, the cheers of my teammates echoing in my ears.In that moment, I felt an overwhelming sense of pride and accomplishment. It wasn't just about winning the race; it was about the sense of unity and camaraderie that permeated the entire event. Standing there on the field, surrounded by my teammates and friends, I realized the true value of teamwork and perseverance.Looking back on that experience now, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunities and friendships that junior high school has bestowed upon me. It is moments like these that shape us into the individuals we are destined tobecome, teaching us invaluable lessons that extend far beyond the classroom walls.In conclusion, my most memorable experience in junior high school taught me the importance of teamwork, perseverance, and camaraderie. It is a lesson that I will carry with me for the rest of my life, guiding me through whatever challenges and triumphs lie ahead.。
大学英语Unit 11 Famous People
Unit 11 Famous PeoplePart ANow you are going to hear three short passages. Choose one or two words from the following box to describe the speaker’s attitude towards the character discussed in each passage.1. What is the speaker’s attitude towards Napoleon?Neutral. (The speaker mainly gives a factual account of Napoleon’s life even t hough he holds that Napoleon waged wars against many countries.)2. What is the speaker’s attitude towards Tom Cruise?Positive. (“W orld renowned actor”, “almost everyone respects him” and “international star” show the speaker’s attitude.)3. What is the speaker’s attitude towards Warren Edward Buffett?Positive, respectful. (In “regarded as one of the world’s greatest stock market investors”,the choice of the word “great” indicates the speaker’s attitude.)Script:1. Napoleon was many things but he was, first of all, remembered as a military leader. Rising from an artillery officer to the commander of the French army, he waged war after war against neighboring countries. In 1804, he declared himself emperor and became the most powerful man in the world. At one time he controlled most of Europe. But Napoleon’s power was short-lived. His defeat came when he decided to attack Russia. Soon the whole of Europe rose against him, eventually forcing him to give up his throne. In 1821, he died alone on the small island of St. Helena.2. Tom Cruise has always represented cool, but somehow over the last couple of years, he has gone from just another Hollywood pretty boy to a certified world-renowned actor. It seems that everything he touches turns to gold. Not everyone likes him, but at least now almost everyone respects him. His movies make millions; he is an international star — men envy him, and women love him.3. Warren Edward Buffett is an American investor, businessman and philanthropist. He is regarded as one of the world’s greatest stock market investors, and is the largest shareholder and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. With an estimated net worth of around US$62 billion, he was ranked by Forbes as the richest person in the world as of February 11, 2008.Part B Listening TasksA Musician-turned EconomistScriptAlan Greenspan, who served as Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board for about two decades from 1987 to 2006, was regarded in those days as one of the most important men by many people in the world.Greenspan was born on March 6, 1926. His father was a stockbroker and his mother worked in retailing. When he was four years old, his parents divorced and he was raised by his mother in New York.Young Alan was a shy boy but he was very good at large numbers. When he was only five, his mother would get him to add two three-digit numbers in his head.He loved baseball and tennis. And, like his mother, he developed a deep appreciation for music. In the mid-1940s he studied briefly at a music school in New York, and then toured the country for a year with a music band. Then he entered New York University’s School of Commerce and graduated with a degree in economics. He got a Master’s degree at NYU in 1949, and shifted to Columbia University to work on his PhD. When his money ran low, he withdrew from graduate school and went to work for the National Industrial Conference Board. He eventually earned a PhD from NYU in 1977.In the mid-1950s Greenspan opened an economic consulting company. In 1987 he began to work in the Federal Government. His work as Chief of Federal Reserve Board was much the same as the work he did on Wall Street, trying to understand how the economy worked and what drove it, offering suggestions for improvement. He was, however, making less money.Exercise 1Listen to the passage and choose the right answers to the questions.1.

Greenspan wasn’t v ery good at his studies since he earned his PhD at the age of 51.5. Which of the following describes the speaker’s attitude towards Greenspan?a. Positive.b. Neutral.c. Negative.d. Critical.Exercise 2Listen to the passage again and fill in the blanks in the following chart with the missing information.Alan GreenspanPart CTest Your ListeningA Compound DictationListen to the passage three times and supply the missing information.On June 28, 2008, amid cheers and tears 52-year-old Gates said good-bye to his 1) Microsoft employees.The following is his closing remarks during his 2) farewell event in Redmond:“My life’s work really is about 3) software and working with incredible people. I love working with smart people. I love working with Steve. I love working with all the incredible people here. Even the times that were the 4) toughest, in some ways those are the ones that bond you the most — when IBM decides to attack you, or when some 5) legal ruling isn’t quite right. And you have to do a press conference afterwards.“The work here combines two things that I think are just so special. One is the 6) long-term impact — the impact on the world of what we do — is incredible. We can always go out and see things that remind us of that. See blind people who, using our accessibility, can browse the Internet. You know, their lives are just totally different because of that. So we can say, wow, this is so 7) impactful.“But I think the second thing, 8) which is that the day-to-day work is fun and enjoyable, that’s actually what’s made it so easy to want to work hard, to want to always improve things, to face up to whatever it is that needs to be done better. 9) So it’s a special group of people who put so much into it.“So let me just close by saying you’ve made it so much for me. 10) There won’t be a day of my life that I’m not thinking about Microsoft, and the great things that it’s doing, and wanting to help. So thank you for making it the center of my life, and so much fun. Thank you.”。

Chinese culture stands for much more than Little Apple
Musical act The Chopstick Brothers arrive at the 42nd American Music Awards in Los Angeles, California November 23, 2014. [Photo/Agencies]
Little Apple, the latest Chinese “god song” (an Internet term to describe pop songs that go viral on the Internet) is still stirring fierce debate between those who view it as a milestone for Chinese pop music going global and those who regard it as bad for China’s image.
On Sunday, Little Apple, written and performed by the Chopsticks Brothers, won the AMA International Song Award. The duo performed the song at the 2014 American Music Awards in Los Angeles. Another Chinese pop singer, Zhang Jie, won the International Artist Award.
But while fans of these singers are hailing the awards and the performance by the Chopsticks Brothers at the AMA gala as significant, there are others who are less enthused. They have questioned the value of the awards and what effect it will have on Chinese culture’s “going abroad”, claiming it may leave
foreign audiences with a poor impression of Chinese pop music, and even Chinese contemporary culture.
Actually the Little Apple phenomenon, both domestically and internationally, can be more easily understood and judged if we look at it from a business perspective rather than a cultural perspective.
The professional promoters behind the duo have developed a clear strategy to promote them and their work, not just this particular song. Little Apple was originally released to promote the duo’s film Old Boys: The Way of the Dragon.
From the very beginning a viral marketing strategy was used to promote the song, which immediately went viral on the Internet due to its repetitive rhythm, easy-to-remember lyrics, simple and funny dance and, most importantly, grassroots nature. The video accumulated more than 1 billion hits on China’s major video website.
Although, the song was generally dismissed by music professionals who criticized it as musical “junk food”, Little Apple’s domestic popularity paved the way for promoting the duo internationally.
Besides performing at the AMA gala, the duo has also cooperated with the popular South Korean girl group Tara on a Korean version of the song.
Also the AMA’s awards are generally decided by public votes, which means they are regarded as a leading commercial indicator of the US pop music market.。
