Oh, what kind of changes?Well, did you know that my company was acquired by Skybest?Really? that is a surprise.Why were they interested in your company?They required us to get our technology.

What's happened to them?Well, my former manager chose to leave, but most of the team has decided to stay for now. Still one of my older coworkers told me he's worried that he could get fired. That must be very hard.Yeah. They've already brought in a new manager and I don't like him.Sometimes it's hard for me to get my ideas through.What do you mean?The way decisions are made has changed a lot. It used to be much easier.My former manager and I used to brainstorm and implement new ideas quickly.But now I have to do a lot of paperwork and go through many procedures.I understand. That happens a lot in big companies.Some procedures may seem unnecessary, but they help clarify responsibilities for each person involved.You may be right.

I'm not good at talking to people.At least make your voice heard. Communication is key.Hmm, I'll think about it. Thank you Leslie.No problem. Should we order now? Waiter.。

-The first plants didn't appear until around 2 billion years ago.Since that time, life has evolved into many different types, or species.There have been several extinction events in the history of the Earth.In an extinction event many life forms, or species of life, die out.The causes of mass extinction events are unsolved mysteries.These events are not predictable and can happen at any time.Scientists think that some of them were started by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions.Events like these can change the global conditions that life depends on.What is an asteroid impact? - It's when an asteroid collides with something.There have been several extinction events in the history of the Earth.One major extinction event happened about 66 million years ago.That event may have been started by a large asteroid that hit the Earth.As a result, the dinosaurs and about half of all species on the planet died out.When the asteroid hit the earth, it started a chain of events.A chain of events is a series of events linked together, like a chain.What may have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs? - An asteroid hit the Earth and started a chain of events.A chain of events is a series of events linked together, like a chain.This particular chain of events happened over a period of months and years.When the asteroid hit the Earth, it caused a huge cloud of dust to enter the atmosphere.This cloud of the dust blocked the sun and darkened the Earth for many months.Without enough sunlight, plants and plant-eating animals quickly died.With the deaths of so many plants and animals, the food chain collapsed.This led to the deaths of many more species.What may have darkened the Earth for many months? -This cloud of the dust blocked the sun and darkened the Earth for many months.(1) When the asteroid hit the Earth, it caused a huge cloud of dust to enter the atmosphere.(2) This cloud of the dust blocked the sun and darkened the Earth for many months.(3) Without enough sunlight, plants and plant-eating animals quickly died.(4) With the deaths of so many plants and animals, the food chain collapsed.This particular chain of events happened over a period of months and years.Mass extinction events have played an important part in the evolution of life.In fact, some extinction events have helped to accelerate evolution.For example, some mammals lived through the age of the dinosaurs, but they couldn't compete.When the dinosaurs were removed, the mammals were able to compete more successfully.Once they could compete, mammals evolved to a higher state.Without extinction events, perhaps we wouldn't be here today.What may have blocked the volution of mammals? -Mammals couldn't compete successfully with the dinosaurs, so their evolution was blocked.When the dinosaurs were removed, the mammals were able to compete more successfully.There have been several extinction events in the history of the Earth.These events are not predictable and can happen at any time.With the deaths of so many plants and animals, the food chain collapsed.That event may have been started by a large asteroid that hit the Earth.Once they could compete, mammals evolved to a higher state.L4-U2-P1-2 Listening : Extinction Events 2Extinction Events 2Scientists estimate that there have been at least 5 mass extinctions in the last 540 million years.They also believe that we have entered a new extinction event.Species are becoming extinct at a much faster rate than before.Instead of asteroids or volcanic eruptions, the current event is the result of human activities.Human activities, for example, have led to global warming.What is causing the current mass extinction event? -This new extinction event is caused by humans.Global warming is the result of an increase in carbon gases in our atmosphere.These gases trap heat from the sun, so the Earth is getting warmer.As a result, sea levels are rising and weather patterns are changing.In addition, we humans are destroying the habitats of many plants and animals.Cutting down forests and polluting rivers destroys the habitats of many forms of life.What traps heat from the sun? - Carbon gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun.Cutting down forests and polluting rivers destroys the habitats of many forms of life.There is no longer any doubt that this is happening.Species of life are disappearing at an increasing rate.Global temperatures are rising and weather patterns are changing.Scientists are warning us that fast action is necessary to save our future.If we don't act, we may go the way of the dinosaurs.There is no longer any doubt that this is happening.If we don't act, we may go the way of the dinosaurs.Species of life are disappearing at an increasing rate.Scientists are warning us that fast action is necessary to save our future.Global warming is the result of an increase in carbon gases in our atmosphere.L4-U2-P1-3 Vocabulary : Body SystemsBody SystemsThe body's circulatory system includes the heart and blood vessels.The heart pumps blood to all parts of the body through a network of arteries and veins.The digestive system breaks down and absorbs food into the body.It supplies the energy that the body needs for growth and repair.After digestion,excess food is turned into waste and eliminated from the body.The nervous system includes the brain, spinal cord and nerves.This is your body's control system.It controls your muscles and organs, including your circulatory and digestive system.The respiratory system includes the nose and lungs.It brings air and oxygen into the body and removes carbon dioxide.The lungs are where oxygen enters the bloodstream, and carbon dioxide is removed.Theimmune system protects the body against infections and diseases.Sneezing and fever are examples of how the immune system works.If an infection invades the body, the immune system attacks it.Which system circulates blood throughout the body?
