You‘re suddenly getting excellent marks in every subject, and you used to be a bottom-of –class student just like me.W: Simple enough. I read an article in a scientific journal that studying with remembering, based on recent research into the brain.M: Aw, that stuff‘s old hat: study at the same time every day, be sure your clothes are comfortable, and make sure you have enough light, blah-blah-blah.W: Not so fast, wise guy. I‘m talking about principles like ―Mental Visualization‖, creating a picture in your mind of what is to be remembered.M: Ok, that dies sound different. Id ―Association‖ a principle—you know, you connect what you want to remember with something you‘re familiar with?W: Right on! ‗Consolidation‖ is another. I review my notes right after class and consolidate—or absorb—the new material into what I‘ve already learned.M: You‘re moving ahead fast with those principles. I swear this weekend I‘m going to study sixteen hours a day both Saturday and Sunday.W: Whoa, big guy. That‘s not the way. Follow the principle of ―Distributes Practice‖. Shorter study sessions distributes over several days are better.M: That system is all very well for you; you‘ve got a good memory. But what about me? I‘ve gota memory like a sieve.W: You‘re too modest. There‘s nothing wrong with your memory. But memory is like a muscle; it needs exercise. And don‘t forget it.While the man is wondering why the woman is suddenly getting excellent marks, she says she read an article on studying and remembering. It talks about principles like ―Mental Visualization‖, that is, creating a picture in one‘s mind of what is to be remembered. This reminds the man of the principle of ―Association‖, which means connecting what one wants to remember with something one is familiar with. Then the woman adds the principle of ―Consolidation‖, or reviewing one‘s notes after class and absorbing the new materia l into what one has already learned. When the man promise to study sixteen hours a day, the woman recommends the principle of ―Distributed Practice‖, which favors shorter study sessions distributed over several days. Finally, the woman tells the man that memory is like a muscle, and that it needs exercise.Task 2: You forget my toast!ScriptAn 80-year-old couple was having problems remembering things, so they decide to go to their doctor to see what was wrong with them. They explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. After checking the couple over, the doctor told them that they were physically okay but might need to start writing things down to help them remember. Thecouple thanked the doctor and left.Later that night while watching TV, the old woman said to the old man, ―Honey, will you please go to the kitchen and get me a dish of ice cream?‖Before the man left, she added, ―Why don‘t you write that down so you won‘t forget?‖―Nonsense,‖ said the husband, ―I can remember a dish of ice cream!‖―Well,‖ said the wife, ―I‘d like some strawberries on it. You‘d better write that down because I know your memory is failing.‖―Don‘t be silly,‖replied the husband. ―There‘re only two things: a dish of ice cream and some strawberries. I can surely remember that!‖With that, he rushed into the kitchen. After about twenty minutes he returned from the kitchen and handed her a plate of bacon and eggs.The wife took one look at the plate, glanced up at her husband, and said, ―Hey, you forget the toast!‖Keys: FTFFFTask3: Memory-Improving TechniquesScriptThere are many techniques you can use to improve your memory. Some of them are introduced her.First and foremost, you need to stimulate your memory all the time. To put it simply, you should use your memory as much as possible. It is especially important to try to learn something new. If you work in an office, learn to dance; if you are a dancer, learn to deal with a computer, if you work with sales, and learn to play chess; if you are a programmer, learn to paint. These added activities stimulate the brain so that I t continues to function.Older people need to pay attention to things they are dealing with. Don‘t try to memorize everything that catches your attention; focus on what you consider important. For example, you can take any object such as a pen and concentrate on it. Think on its various characteristics: its material, its function, its color, and so on. Don‘t allow any other thought to occupy your mind while you are concentrating in that pen.Another method that can be used is to relax yourself. It is impossible to remember things if you are tense or nervous.So, try holding your breath for ten seconds, and then release it slowly.Association is also a powerful tool to develop your memory. For example, if you cannot remembera person‘s name, you can think about a special feature of his face and then link it with his mane.1.What‘s seems to be an especially important way to stimulate one‘s memory?2.What seems to be the best way to focus your memory?3.How can you concentrate on a pen?4.How can you relax yourself according to the passage?5.What is the main idea of the passage?Kes: 1A 2.C3.

Jenny:Sure, I think everyone had to before class started.Harrison: No. Usually no one does much on the first day because it‘s still add-drop.Jenny: What‘s that?Harrison: Changing from class to class to find out which one is best. Hey, where are you from? Jenny: Poland. Have you has this teacher before? I‘ve heard he is really good.Harrison: He‘s good if you‘re a hand-worker. He expects a lot.Jenny: Oh, I guess that‘s good. I hope I can keep up with everyone else in the class. Maybe I need your help after class.Harrison: You‘re welcome.…Professor: All right. See you guys next week.Student: See you.Jenny: Harrison, wait up!Harrison: So what do you think about the professor‘s lecture?Jenny: I think half of what he said went over my head.Harrison: That‘s all right. A lot of what he said is explain in the reading/Jenny: Hey, would you mind if I borrowed your notes tonight to look them over? Harrison: No problem. We don‘t have class until Wednesday. Here you go.Jenny: Thanks. I just want to make sure I‘m prepared for the seminar.Harrison: Yeah, participation in the discussion is an important part of the education here. Seeing that Jenny has bought the books for the biology class, Harrison says nobody does much onwas―Hi, Mom. I certainly miss you and Dad. I…uh…got a big surprise this week in my physics course. We have to buy two new textbooks. I‘m going to need $100.‖―I understand,‖ said his mother, ―I‘ll send you the money right away. You left your calculus book here when you were home two weeks ago. Shall I mail that at the same time?‖―Oh, yeah. Thanks,‖ Robert said.Robert‘s mother made up a parcel with the calculus book and two checks, and mailed it to Robert that very day. When she returned from the post office, her husband was waiting for her.―Well, how much did you give the boy this time?‖ asked Dad.―I send two checks: one for $100 and the other for $1, 100,‖ answered Mom.―You‘re outing your mind,‖ yelled Dad, ―That‘s $1,100. He‘ll just spend that in a couple of weeks. He‘s never going to learn the value of money that way.‖―Don‘t worry, honey,‖ Mom said, ―I taped the $100 check to the cover of his book, but I put the $1,000 one between the pages in Charper13!‖Keys: TFFFTTask3: How to Get Straight A’sScriptIt is interesting to note how straight A students achieve academic excellence. Here, according to education experts and students themselves are the secrets of super-achievers.First, they know how to set priorities. Top students allow no intrusions on study time. Once the books are open or the computer is turned on, phone calls go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks ignored. Study is business, and business comes before recreation.Also, good students can study anywhere and everywhere. Claudia Hill, an Arizona State University business professor recalls a cross-country runner who worked out every day. Hill persuaded him to use his spare time to memorize biology term. Then he posted a list of biology terms on the mirror in the bathroom. He learned a few terms every day while brushing his teeth. Eventually, he scored high on the final examination.Moreover, top students schedule their time well. Study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others awake early. Still others study as soon as they come home from school when the work is fresh in their minds. All agreed, however, on the need for consistency. A student says, ―Whatever I was doing, I maintained a certain period of time every day for studying.‖Another important characteristic of super-achievers is that they know hoe to read, According to a book entitled Getting Straight A‘s, the secret of good reading is to be ―an active reader-one who continually asks questions that lead to a full understanding of the author‘s message‖.6.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about super—achievers starting to study?7.What did the cross-country runner do to score high on the exam?8.What is the good thing all top students agree on?9.What does the speaker mean by ―an active reader‖?10.What is the main idea of the passage?Kes: 1B 2.C3.

Listening InTask1: Reasons for a DivorceScriptW: I‘m divorcing my husband.M: How long have you been married?W: Thirteen years.M: Do you have children?W: Yes, and I have to protect them from any more harm from my husband‘s irresponsibilityM: So, what are your grounds for divorce?W: Well, first of all, he keeps changing jobs. We‘ve had moved four times in thirteen years!M: And, you believe that will be good grounds for divorce?W: I do have a right to stability for my children and myself, don‘t I?M: Aren‘t they his children, too?W: But my husband isn‘t fulfilling his duties!M: Is he paying the bills?W: Well, yes, but we just live around the poverty line. Our kids are being teased by other kids at school because we can‘t dress them in good clothes! We have to live in a small department and drive an old car!M: Does the car run?W: Yes, but it looks OLD!M: Do you yell at him and call him names?W: Well, he yells at me!M: So, those are the reasons to not honor your husband. Are you going to give him joint custody in this divorce?W: No, just visitation rights.M: Why?W: Because the law permits me to.M: And, what about the financial demands of this divorce?W: I‘m demanding half of all we have, which isn‘t much, and large support payments.After thirteen years marriage, the woman wants to divorce her husband, claiming he is . When asked for the specific grounds for divorce, she gives these reasons: First, hethejointshe would soon get married. People who knew her well said the marriage wouldn‘t last long. But for the present, she and her new husband approached happy.As soon as the newly couple returned from their honeymoon, the bride called her mother.―How does everything go?‖ her mother asked.―Oh, Mom,‖ she began, ―the honeymoon was lovely! So romantic! We had a wonderful time. But on our back, Bob started using terrible language. Stuff I‘d never heard before. Really awful four-letter words. You‘ve got to come get me and take me home. Please, Mom!‖ the new bride sobbed over the telephone.―But, honey,‖ the mother asked, ―What four-letter words?‖―I can‘t tell you, Mom. They‘re too awful! Come get me, please!‖―Darling, you must tell me what has upset you so much. Tell me what four-letter words he used.‖Still sobbing, the bride said, ―Mom, words like dust, wash, iron, and cook.‖Keys: FTFFTTask3: A Woman Who Chose Not to RemarryScriptAfter 17 years of marriage, my husband left me for my best friend, Monica. What I had feared most became reality: I became the single parent of two young children. My daughter grew increasingly unhappy. Seven-year-old Joanna had anxiety attacks when ever she was left alone for more than a few minutes. Five-year-old Sophie would vomit every meal. Under the psychological pressure, I thought about remarriage. My friends arranged dinner with single men and invited me to parties to meet the latest ―someone special‖.But later I changed my mind. A colleague of mine said, ―Second marriages usually end in divorce, and children are destroyed by it.‖ There is some truth in his words. Research published in 2004 showed that children in blended families were no more emotionally healthy than those in single-parent families.Not long ago, my now-teenage daughter and I went to lunch at our favorite Italian restaurant. While eating, we talked about a friend of ours who was divorcing her second husband. We were worried about how the break would harm her three children, two of whom were struggling to get free of drugs. Joanna put down her fork and looked at me. ―Mom, I‘m glad you didn‘t remarry,‖she said. ―If you had divorced again, I might have tried drugs or even consider suicide.‖ At that moment, I realized, once again, that singleness was right choice for me.11.What was the speaker most afraid of?12.Which of the following is NOT true?13.What did the speaker‘s colleague say?14.Which of the following is true?15.If the speaker had divorced again, what might her daughter, Joanna, have done?Kes: 1C 2.A3.

Listening InTask 1: Tell me about yourself.ScriptM: Tell me a little about yourself.W: I‘m from Guilin City.M: What brought you to the east coast?W: I came to Qingdao to attend college. I‘m impressed by this city‘s dynamic economy. I‘ve come to love it so much that I‘ve decided to stay and work here.M: What work experience do you?W: I worked as an intern for a small shipping company. And my primary responsibilities were to maintain the company‘s ties with the existing customers and try to find new cargo sources. M: And what did that experience teach you?W: I learned that communication skills are extremely important. The knowledge I acquired fromtextbooks is indeed, but it is equally essential to be able to persuade a potential client t to trust you.M: How would your former employer describe you?W: He told me that my ability to find one customer after another was an asset to the company. He thanked me for my loyalty. He also appreciated my team as shown in my cooperation with my colleague.M:You seem very mature for your age. And I see from your resume that you are very goal-oriented.W: Thank you. I believe I‘ve acquired many good qualities from my parents. They‘re my roleimpressed by the latterexisting customerscommunication skills. She has realized that bookessential tocustomers was aninterviewer findsScriptfor the same job. Quite by coincidence, the two amplifications, and were asked to take the same test by the manager of the Human Resource Department. Upon completion of the test, both men missed only one of the questions. The manager went to Murphy and said, ―Thank you for your interest, but we‘ve decided to give the American the job.‖Bewildered by the manager‘s decision, Murphy asked, ―Why would you be doing that? We both got nine questions correct. This being Ireland and me being Irish, I should get the job!‖The manger answered calmly, ―We have made our decisions based on the correct answers, but on the question you missed.‖Unconvinced and somewhat indignant, Murphy question, ―And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?‖The manager‘s maser took him by surprise, ―Simple, on QuestionNo.5, the American put down ‗I don‘t‘ know‘, and you put down ‗Neither do I‘.‖Keys: FTTTFTFor Reference1.He made his decision based on the wrong answers to the one question one missed, rather thanon the correct answers.2.By writing ―Neither do I‖, it seems that Murphy copied the American answer on the test.Task3: A Guide to a Successful Job InterviewScriptThere are times that you will be asked a hard question during a job interview. Don‘t panic, theyjust want to see how you handle a difficult situation. Being prepared is always the best policy. Here are some samples of questions and some advice on how to handle them properly.Why should we choose you? To this question, you can ask yourself why you applied, what makes you suitable for this question, what the company can gain from hiring you, what you have to offer, how you would handle this jib, etc.Often they ask you to tell them about yourself. You can split your answer into two, the professional and the personal level. Both are important, and how you move from one to the other depends on what you have to say. You can give a brief summary of your life, professional and personal, with less emphasis on the early past, and more emphasis on the present and the future. When asked ―What are your weakness?‖, don‘t say, ―I don‘t have any.‖ Everyone has weakness, and it takes something positive like, ―I haven‘t had a lot of exposure on the on-site work, but I‘m looking forward to being more involved in dealing with customers directly and learning their needs.‖Another common question is: ―What are your strengths?‖ You should customize your answer to meet the position requirement. Keep in mind the things they asked for in the advertisement. Tell them your strengths, but also show them how they how they would apply to this job. To show how your strengths were valuable, use the ―Why, where, when, how‖ to demonstrate and prove your strengths.16.What is the passage mainly concerned with?17.What does the speaker NOT mention as an answer to the question, ―Why should we chooseyou?‖?18.What does the speaker say you should stress when introducing yourself?19.What does the speaker advice you NOT to say when a sked, ―What are your weaknesses?‖20.What should you say when asked about your strong points?Kes: 1C 2.C3. B 4.A 5.DFor Reference―Why should we choose you?‖, ―Tell me about yourself.‖, ―What are your weaknesses?‖, and ―What are your strength?‖Uint5III.

You know, start making new connections.Nora: Smart thinking. But what are you going to do with all those brochures?Chris: The party ends at two, I figure I can have them all distributed by one-thirty,Nora: No, no, no, no. Let me clue you in. Those brochures will make you look like a green hand. Chris: What should I do then?Nora: Hand out business cards. That‘s the way to do it.Chris: I don‘t understand what‘s wrong with these brochures about our company.Nora: This room is going to be filled with potential clients, but there is an unwritten law; you leave your work at the door.Chris: But how am I supposed to get anything of this if we can‘t talk business?Nora: You have business cards. Get out there and exchange cards. Just get a card for a card. Chris: Then follow up on Monday?Nora: You catch on quick. Let‘s split up so we can cover more ground.Chris: Great idea. This is going to be a piece of cake. I‘ll meet you back here at two.Chris and Nora are going to a reception. Chris is eager to making new connections. As the party ends at two, he intends to have all those brochures distributed by one- thirty. But Nora disagrees, saying that those brochures will make him look like a green hand. She advises him just to hand out business card and leave his work at the door. But Chris wonders how he can get anything out of this if she can‘t talk business. To this, Nora insists that he should just get a card for a card. Chris catches on quickly and knows that he can hand out business cards now and follow up on Monday. Finally, Nora suggests splitting up so that they can cover more ground.Chris feels it will be a piece of cake and promise to meet her back there at two.Task 2: A Work Qualification TestScriptOnce there was a Scottish accountant. The business has been in the family for generations and generations. Over time, with the countless clients that had gone in and out of the office, the marble step in front of the building had developed a big, deep dip in it from all the wear and tear.The accountant‘s friends kept telling him that he had better get it replaced; otherwise he‘d be sued if anyone ever slipped and fell.Reluctantly, the accountant called a stonemason to get a quote for the repairs. When the stonemason got there, the accountant demanded a price for a new step.―Ah, big job,‖ said the e stonemason, ―But I suppose I could give you a new step for a hundred pounds.‖ The accountant was stunned. ―Are you crazy, man? I can‘t pay you a hundred pounds!‖Thinking about it for a second, he turned to the stonemason and asked, ―What would you charge me to dig up the step and turn it over so that the worn part is in the ground and I‘d get a new square step?‖ The stonemason hesitated, ―20pounds.‖―Do it!‖ Demanded the accountant, ―And call me when you‘re done.‖The accountant went back inside to read his books, but after only 15minutes the stonemason rang the bell. As the accountant opened the door, he saw the stonemason standing there, pointing to a deep dip in the step. The stonemason laughed as he said, ―Your great-great granddaddy thought of that a hundred and fifty years ago!‖Keys: FTFFTFor Reference3.countless clients that had gone in and out of the office4.He turn the step over so that the worn part was in the groundTask3: Where to Start Your BusinessScriptYou have to consider the location when launching a business. You will be ―planning your business tree‖ there and will have to maintain it for years to come. You have to keep in mind a few things when deciding on a place t open your business.First of all, you have to take the local economy into consideration. Is your local area growing and building? Are the market trends good? Even if you have to locate your business farther from your home, try to find a place that is building up and bringing people in. The worst thing you can do is to pick a place that is in the ―bad area of town‖ because it is less expensive. Your address can be the first thing people will ask for, and it can say a lot about your business.The second thing you have to bear in mind is the job market. Since unemployment is low in most area in the Unites States, consider what type of employees you will need and find out if there are many in your area. The amount of money that you will have t o spend I the recruiting phase could be an indicator that you should or should not locate the business in an area with a different employee pool.Another factor people have to consider is whether you can integrate with the local community and get to love it. To make the community warm to you, you should become involved in it by joining the local Chamber of Commerce, Business Association, City Council Committees, or other local organization that could offer you help. Why plan on retiring ―one day‖ to some great location? Why not move there now and start your dream business?21.What is the speaker mainly talking about?22.What must you find if you are going to locate a business at a distance from your home?23.According to the speaker, what is the worst thing you can do?24.What will the recruiting money tell you?25.What can you do the get on well with the locate people?Kes: 1D 2.C3.

Listening InTask 1: How to Solve Unemployment ProblemScriptAlan: I have a meeting with my accountant tomorrow morning. She‘s preparing my income tax return, and I need to go over some of the receipts with her.Pamela: Income tax return! Don‘t you think the government just squanders our hard-earned tax on some unnecessary projects?Alan: Sure, someone they do, but we are living pretty well and, to be honest, I don‘t mind paying taxes. If I‘m paying income tax, it means I‘m earning would be much lower. Pamela: If the poor would just get jobs, our taxes would be much lower.Alan: Most people would rather work than receive charity, but the situation is complex: sometimes there are no jobs that they are trained for.Pamela: Then they should take the needed training—upgrade their skills and knowledge to become more employable.Alan:Training and upgrading cost money. Some government tax dollars are directed to programs that help the poor get jobs.Alancharity,but sometimes there are no jobs that trained for. Butjobless people should take the needed training to upgrade their skills and knowledge to become more employable. Alan believes that some of the government tax dollars are already directed to training and upgrading programs that help the poor to get jobs. When Pamela says some of the unemployed don‘t want to work, preferring to have handouts, Alan points out that some people have to be educated to realize how much fuller their life would be if they ere not dependent on charity. Pamela is, however, more down-to-earth, thinking the government should attack unemployment by reducing the tax rate. That would give people more money; then, they would spend more, which would create more jobs for the poor.Task 2: A Professional GamblerScriptIn a bar a guy told the bartender, ―I‘m a professional gambler; I‘ve made of lots of money from gambling.‖The bartender answered, ―I can hardly believe it. Your odds are fifty-fifty at best, right?‖―Well, I only bet on sure things,‖ said the guy.―Like what?‖ asked the bartender.The bartender thought about it, ―Okay,‖ he said.So the guy pulled out his false right eye and bit it, ―Ah, you screwed me,‖ said the bartender, and paid the guy fifty dollars.―I‘ll give you another chance. I‘ll bet you another fifty dollars that I can bite my left eye,‖ said the stranger.The bartender thought it over again and said, ―Well, I can see you‘re not blind. I‘ll take that bet.‖So, the guy pulled out his false teeth and bit his left eye. And the bartender had to pay him another fifty dollars.Then the guy went to the back room to play cards with some of the locals. After many hours of drinking and card playing, he stumbles up to the bartender and said, ―Bartender, I‘ll give you one last chance. I‘ll bet you 500 dollars that I can dump tomato juice into that whiskey bottle three foot away without spilling a drop.‖The bartender thought the guy must be drunk now, ―Okay, you‘re on,‖ he said.The guy began dumping tomato juice all over the bartender, but no a drop fell into the whiskey bottle.The bartender was overjoyed. Laughing, the bartender said, ―Hey, pal, you owe me five hundred dollars!‖The guy said, ―That‘s okay. I just bet the guys in the card room1, 000 bucks each, that I could dump tomato juice all over you but you still laugh!‖Keys: TFTFTFor Reference5.Because not a drop tomato juice fell into the whiskey bottle, and he was to win the bet of 500dollars.6.Because he just bet the guys in card room1, 000 buck each that he could dump tomato juiceall over the bartender and still make him laugh.Task3: Fighting Teen SmokingScriptThe percentage of teens who smoke cigarettes dropped to 28% in 2003, according to a report by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. That was down from 36% in 1999 as measured by the Youth Risk Behavior Survey. It‘s a triumph for many people across the nation who worked tirelessly to reverse the climb in teen smoking rates during the 1990s.An equal accomplishment many be discovery of what works to influence teens‘ motivation and behavior. Success has come in communities with a comprehensive program to fight tobacco use by teens. The best school health classes won‘t have much effect on teen who already smoke. Many of them need professional help before they can quit. Another interesting finding is that nearly all first use of tobacco occurs before high school graduation. So if adolescents don‘t start smoking by age 18, odds are they never will. For those who do experiment with cigarettes, new research shows teens can get hooked on nicotine more quickly than adults and by extremely low levels of tobacco.Now the bad news: while the teen smoking rate is down to 28%, that still means more than one in four teenagers still smoke. Public health and parents are not ready to abandon a quarter of today‘s young people to the damaging effects of tobacco. Obviously, it is still too early to celebrate a complete victory. There is still much room for improvement.。

I feel everyone should be able to feel or understand what others are going through. But when you suffer and cry for people you don't know, or over a movie that’s only a story, then I think that's a little too sensitive. That's the way I am.I am also a very independent person. I must do things by myself. I don't like people doing things for me, or helping me, or giving me things. It's not that I don't appreciateit. I just feel that when someone does something for you, you owe them, and if there is one thing I don't like to feel, it's that I owe anyone anything.I think I would be a good friend. I would do almost anything for someone I like; and I would share or give anything I have. I'm very caring and understanding. People trust me with their secrets, and they're right for doing so because I never tell others any secret that is told to me. I'm always there to help in any way that I can. All you have to do is ask.I enjoy life and people, which makes me feel good. I find fun in almost everything I do (except housework). I like to watch people, talk to them, and be around them. It makes no difference whether I agree or disagree with what they feel or how they live or what they look like, or what age they are.

He's particularly good with group activities, and he's a very helpful person to have in the class and very helpful with the other students. He speaks fluently, but does make a lot of mistakes!

Now, she's very lively, quick, and very bright. She talks all the time but not always in English.David: What? Is she difficult or anything?Barbara: No...she's quite young but she does behave in quite a grown-up way really for her age. It can be a bit difficult to actually shut her up sometimes and make her listen to you.David: Ah, right.Barbara: She's very nice. She has dark hair and dark eyes.David: Right, well...are there any other girls in the class?Barbara: Yes, there is Maria. She's Susan's sister.David: Yes.Barbara: Actually it's quite difficult to tell them apart although...er... Maria is slightly older. She's a bit plumper and has longer hair than Susan. She's not quite as bright as her sister and I think that makes her feel a bit inferior really. Well, you know, she sulks a bit when she gets things wrong or she misunderstands you. But on the whole, a very sensible girl.David: OK.Barbara: And then there's Peter, who's older than the others. He's got a sort of moustache, spectacles and wavy dark brown hair. He usually wears a jacket and sometimes a suit. He's very smart and takes notes all the time. He's also very serious and determined to learn as much as possible. He asks quite difficult questions but he doesn't mean to be nasty.David: Well, thanks, Barbara. It's all up to me now, isn't it? Have a good holiday, won't you?Barbara: Thanks.David: Bye.1. Four2.

Mr. Smith always thought that he was more sensible than his wife, so he started to give her a lecture on the importance of always remaining calm.Finally he said, "It's a waste of your strength to get excited about small things. Train yourself to be patient, like me. Now, look at the fly that has just landed on my nose. Am I getting excited or annoyed? Am I swearing or waving my arms around? No. I'm not. I'm perfectly calm."Just as he had said this, Mr. Smith started shouting. He jumped up and began to wave his arms around wildly and swear terribly. He couldn't speak for some time, but at last he was able to tell his wife: The thing on his nose was not a fly, but a bee.1) upset 2) sensible 3) lecture 4) calm 5) strength6) landed 7) swearing 8) perfectly 9) wildly 10) beeTom: Oh, that Mr. Taylor.

And why does he do that?Tom: Because he's vain, that's why! And conceited! He thinks he knows everything. Mother: Oh, Tom. Be reasonable. I'm sure you're exaggerating. Mr. Taylor seems such a nice, kind man.Tom: Well, he isn't. He is mean and cruel.Mother: Cruel? Now how can a history teacher be cruel?Tom: Because he only gave me two out of ten points in my history test.Mother: Oh, now I understand. Tom, I think you'd better get on with your homework!1. B2.

Here's a brief summary of what they thought.There were many different opinions among those interviewed: Some were very flattering, others very critical. The distinction between the English and the British wasn't always understood, but, on the whole, it seemed that the Scots were very popular with visitors. They were thought to be very friendly, even though one Dutch visitor confessed she'd found it hard to understand their English.A great number found the British generally reserved, particularly the English, although one Australian visitor called the English "the friendliest people in the world and most hospitable". But she did admit that speaking the same language was a great help. Some Asian businessmen, who had traveled widely throughout England, said quite openly that they found North country people "much nicer" than people in the South. When asked what exactly they meant by "much nicer", one of them said, with a playful smile on his face, "By much nicer I mean much more like us!"A few continentals praised "English courtesy", but the majority found it dishonest and dull. "You're forever saying 'please' and 'sorry' when you don't feel pleased or sorry," one explained.A young student from South Africa had no views on the matter. He hadn't met any Englishmen, he said.

I'm Jenny.Harrison: So, you've bought the books for this biology class.Jenny: Yeah. I think everyone had to before class started. 'Harrison: No. Usually no one does much on the first day because it's still add-drop.Jenny: What's that?Harrison: Changing from class to class to find out which is best.Jenny: Have you had this teacher before? I've heard he is really good.Harrison: He's good if you're a hard worker. He expects a lot.Jenny: Oh, I guess that's good. I hope I can keep up with everyone else in the class. Maybe I need your help after class.Harrison: You're welcome.(V oice-over: Jenny catches up with Harison after the first class.)Jenny: Harrison, wait up!Harrison: So what do you think of the professor's lecture?Jenny: I think about half of what he said went over my head.Harrison: Don't worry. A lot of what he said is explained in the reading.Jenny: Hey, would you mind if I borrowed your notes tonight to look them over?Harrison: No problem. We don't have class until Wednesday. Here you go.Jenny: Thanks. I just want to make sure I'm prepared for the seminar.Harrison: Yeah. Participation in the discussion is an important part of the education here.Key(1)the first day (2)changing (3) really good (4) hard workers (5) went over her head(6) explained (7)notes (8)Wednesday (9) participation (10) educationTask 2: How to select elective courses?ScriptConsider these tips on elective courses and you'll choose those that will serve you best.To begin with, you should select the courses that fit your profession. It is a good idea to choose elective courses closely related to your chosen profession. Potential employers will appreciate every bit of extra training and knowledge that they don't have to give you. For example, you may select elective courses in chemistry, biology or even physics if you are doing a science major. For business majors, select electives in accounting, business administration, and even computing, as you'll never know when these will come in handy in the corporate world.Moreover, you can choose an education that includes many fields of study. If you are taking a heavy load of career-related courses, you may prefer electives that are not directly related to your major. If you receive a well-rounded education, some employers believe that you have better potential. For example, if you have courses in science along with your business degree, you could possibly win a job over someone who majored purely in business with no outside electives.Finally, you can also select a challenging elective course. Part of getting an education is learning how to learn, and elective courses should help you achieve this goal. You need not to memorize all the information from each class, but you should get a better understanding of the world. So, pick elective courses that challenge your belief system and make you look at the world in a different way. For instance, you can consider a philosophy elective if you have been told that you are a little narrow-minded.Key(1) extra training (2) chemistry(3) accounting (4) many fields of study(5) better potential (6) business degree(7) challenging (8) how to learn(9) better understanding (10) narrow-mindedTask3: How to Get Straight A’sScriptIt is interesting to note how straight A students achieve academic excellence. Here, according to education experts and students themselves are the secrets of super-achievers.First, they know how to set priorities. Top students allow no intrusions on study time. Once the books are open or the computer is turned on, phone calls go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks ignored. Study is business, and business comes before recreation.Also, good students can study anywhere and everywhere. Claudia Hill, an Arizona State University business professor recalls a cross-country runner who worked out every day. Hill persuaded him to use his spare time to memorize biology term. Then he posted a list of biology terms on the mirror in the bathroom. He learned a few terms every day while brushing his teeth. Eventually, he scored high on the final examination.Moreover, top students schedule their time well. Study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others awake early. Still others study as soon as they come home from school when the work is fresh in their minds. All agreed, however, on the need for consistency. A student says, “Whatever I was doing, I maintained a certain period of time every day for studying.”Another important characteristic of super-achievers is that they know hoe to read, According to a book entitled Getting Straight A’s, the secret of good reading is to be “an active reader-one who continually asks questions that lead to a full understanding of the author’s message”.1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about super—achievers starting to study?2.What did the runner do to score high on the exam?3.What is the good thing all top students agree on?4.What does the speaker mean by “an active reader”?5.What is the main idea of the passage?Key: 1B 2.C3.

I already have two reports, two books reports, a composition, an oral report, anda research project—all due before midterms.Nora: We could work together. Maybe some of my organized study habit would rub off on you.Chris: Better yet, maybe you could do my homework for me.Nora: Forget it! That would be cheating.Chris: All right, all right. I have yet to write a term paper. Can you recommend any articles and books?You’d better find me the exact pages where I can find what I want.Nora: You could borrow ideas from references, but if you quote without giving the sources, you’re plagiarizing.Chris: The quiz next week will be a headache. If you don’t help me, I’ll have to prepare some study sheets and hide them in my hand when I take the test.Nora: Oh, no! If you’re caught, the professor will definitely give you an F. Probably, you will have to repeat the year.Chris: All right, I’ll take your advice. The library is going to be my new home, and in the dorm I’ll be burning the midnight oil.MODEL2 Which class do you prefer?ScriptChris: First period is math with Mr. Woods. I don’t know how am I going to stay awake?Nora: I like Mr. Wood. He’s interesting.Chris: He’s boring! He could put the entire basketball team to sleep—during the championship game!Who do you have for economics?Nora: Mrs. Jenkins. She’s smart. Students really learn a lot from her.Chris: She’s tough! You have to work hard in her class, or you’ll probably fail.Nora:No pain, no gain.Chris: Nonsense, You could have learned even more with Mr. Sharp. But not many students opt for his class.Nora: What’s wrong with him?Chris: Often, the highest grade he gives on a term paper is C+, and he usually fails half of the students. Nora:No wonder he’s got the nickname Mr. Shark. Well, how about PE? What are you doing this semester?Chris: That’s the worst part. In PE, we’re learning t’ai chi. I’m bored to death.Nora: Ha-ha! Not to rub salt into the wound, but our class is playing your favorite sport: basketball. Chris: Oh…that figures!

It’s publish or perish.Chris: So you spent a lot of time in your office?Professor Grant: Yes, but I also have to prepare class motes, give lectures, hold office hours. Teaching is an important part of being a professor.Chris: With all those responsibilities, you must make a lot of money.Professor Grant: I wish. Actually, I spend a lot of tome applying foe grants to fund my research. Then Ican offer assistantships and scholarships to the worthy graduate.Chris: I see why they call you “the boss”. But being a professor sounds pretty competitive. Professor Grant: Actually, I think you were in one of my classes…Chris: Um….I think you’re mistaken, Professor Grant!Professor Grant: No, I remember very clearly now! You owe me an essay!Chris: Sorry, I have too much work to do for the Student Union Newsletter, and I have to work two jobs to pay for school.Professor Grant:So you get an F in this course.V. Let’s TalkInterviewee: It's a really difficult balance to strike, actually maintaining the (1)quality but making sure as many (2)young people as possible and older people as well-there's been a surge in the number of over 25s applying, and wetake many people who are over (3)25. But we've got to get that balance right. It's going to be terribly(4)difficult for us next year.Hostess: Given the cuts that the (5)government announced a couple of weeks ago, and the numbers that we know in terms of applications, where are you going to draw that line? Are you going to have to look at cuttingintake in order to maintain the (6)quality of the courses?Intewiewee: We're trying not to (7)cut intake at the moment. But what it means is we're going to have to be(8)extra-cautious in the number of offers we make, because we simply cannot (9) afford to go over ourquota of the number of places that we can offer. Because if we do, it means that we could be fined, or wejust simply haven't got enough money to make sure the students' (10)experience is right. So it means thatmaybe last year we would allow a few (11) more people to have an offer. This year is going to be tougher. Hostess: Do you lay some of the (12)blame for the situation at the door of the government?Interviewee: If you look to France, Sarkozy is actually increasing the (13)budget for higher education.Obama in the U.S. has done the same thing. So we're just slightly (14)puzzled as to why the governmentseems to- be cutting back on higher education rather than pumping more money into what we think is a(15)service that is absolutely vital for the economy.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1:ScriptHi, everybody. My topic today is “Problems with Our Educational System”.There are a lot of things in our educational system that I don’t agree with. It seems that educators just want to give standardized tests, which focus only on academic performance but neglect students’ abilities and interests in other areas. I think there’re a lot of people who are very intelligent, but haven’t had the opportunities they could’ve had, had they been educated in a broader-minded educational systems. I feel that a lot of courses that students are focused to take in high school are too academic, and, as a result, many kids lost their interest in learning.Educators have failed to recognize various kinds of intelligence. They often exert a lot of pressure on students to be as well-rounded as possible. I think being well-rounded isn’t really possible. And as a consequence some students who are believed to be intelligent can’t get into good colleges if they, for example, haven’t scored well on the math section, even if they ate brilliant writers.Another thing that disturbs me is that the so-called “weak students”are separated from the rest of theschool. Some kids are kept in a separate class id their grades are lower then others. And they’ve very aware of their social position, you know. I think it causes them to act in a way that is not really positive. They’re just acting in a way that they are expected to act. Often their grades go from bad to worse. And that’s pretty sad to me. I think that many of the kids in those classed are intelligent, but never actually realize their potential because of the way they are treated very early on in their education.Key(1) standardized tests (2) abilities and interest (3) interest (4) pressure(5)well-rounded (6) get into good colleges (7) the rest of the school (8) from bad to worse Task 2: The Final ExamScriptAt a university, there were four sophomores taking a chemistry course. They were doing so well on all the quizzes, midterms, labs, that each had “A” so far for the semester.These four friends were so confident that on the weekend before finals, they decided to go up to the University of Virginia and party with some friends there. They had a great time, but after all the hearty partying, they slept all day Sunday and didn’t make it back to school until early Monday morning. Rather than taking the final then, they decided to find their professor after the final exam and explain to him why they missed it. They explained that they had planned to come back in time for the final exam, but, unfortunately, they had a flat tire on the way back, didn’t have a spare, and couldn’t get help for a long time. As a result, they missed the final.The professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up the final the following day. The guys were relieved and elated. The next day, the professor placed them in separate room, hand each of them a test booklet, and told them to begin.They took at the first problem, worth five points. It was a simple question on a chemical reaction. “Cool,”they thought at the same time, each one in his separate room, “This is going to be easy.” Each finished the problem and then turned the page.On the second page was a question worth 95 points: “Which of the tires was flat?”Task 3 Harvard UniversityScriptHarvard University is the oldest institute of highest learning in her United States. Founded 16years after the arrival of the Pilgrim at Plymouth, the university has grown from 9 students with a single master to the present enrollment of more than 18,000students, including undergraduates and students in 10 graduate and professor schools.

But what is important is that when they get to university, is that they have good facilities, good buildings, that they have good contact with their lecturers and, for students from poorer backgrounds that they receive a grant. And you know 40 percent of students who are going to university are in receipt of some grants. So we have to plan. . .Host: But there's going to be less money next year. That's the bottom line, isn't it?Interviewee: Er, we are asking universities to make a one percent cut in their teaching grant. That's 51 million out of a total budget of over five billion. Look, I think there are families across the country preparing for Christmas spending a bit less and they're, you know, it's a lot more than one percent that they're, they're feeling. So I think this is reasonable to ask universities if we are to ensure that we can continue to send more young people to university and we remain committed to that. Host: And briefly, what about these two-year degrees? This is a reduction in standards, isn't it? Interviewee: Well, we, we, we. . . It's important in this country that we remember that students aren't just the classic 18- to 21-year-old undergraduates. We want mature students. We want more part-time students and over the last few years we've been growing the number of foundation degree, two-year degrees that ensure that transition into high university and high level skills.

Unit 3 Outside View Activity 1Activity 2Activity 3Listening inNews ReportActivity 1ScriptPrince George is influencing education just by going to school. Since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s announcement that the little prince will be attending a Montessori nursery school, more people have been interested in the Montessori method of education.The Maria Montessori Institute in London, which runs several schools and a Montessori teacher training centre, reports that there has been a 65 per cent increase in parents signing up for information about their schools compared to last year. Many are curious about the Montessori method, which focuses on the individual development of each child rather than tests and grades.Many people are also now interested in being a Montessori teacher. There is a specific training required for teachers at Montessori schools. There has been a 45 per cent increase in people looking to attend information sessions for teachers. The Maria Montessori Institute offers an open afternoon every so often when people can go and observe students, and those events have been fully booked since Prince George joined.1.

For a monthly fee of $, members have access to over 50 online and 25 mobile games. The games target and train specific areas of the brain. They are claimed to improve brain health, help you perform better at work and in school, and delay brain decline associated with age, if you play them three to four times a week for 15 minutes each time.However, the government found that Lumos Labs could not provide scientific evidence to support its claims that its games can improve memory, attention and focus.

It was a wonderful experience. The history and culture of the city were fascinating to me.One of the first things I noticed, however, was that Chinese people weren’t as direct as the people I knew back home in California. If a friend at home wanted to ask me a favor, he or she would come right out and ask. In China, people would have a long conversation, asking questions and telling stories before finally asking the favor.At first, I thought everyone was just being overly polite in my presence since I was a foreigner and they wanted to be hospitable or maybe because they wanted to practice their English. However, I soon noticed that Chinese people had similar conversations among themselves. Very few people were direct. It felt like many people were talking in circles before they eventually arrived at their point.I’m not sure which method I prefer. Sometimes Americans can be too direct, it’s true. But it seems to me that Chinese are sometimes too circular, we must be able to strike a balance and find a happy medium.Q9: What probably is the speakerQ10: With which of the following statements would the speaker probably agreeQ11: What can the information presented be best described asAnswer BACSection DScriptWhat’s something you’ve always wanted to accomplish but never have Whatever it is, it probably seems like there are insurmountable obstaclesstanding between you and your goal. But the truth is, these goals arecompletely achievable —and in most cases, you are the only one holdingyourself back.That’s according to Bernard Roth, a professor at Stanford University. Roth’s new book, The Achievement Habit, outlines how a strategy called "design thinking" can help you create meaningful challenges in your life. “Design thinking”is typically used to improve on a specific product or experience. Yet “the achievement habit”means how the very same process can be turned inward, helping individuals become happier and more successful.Design thinking is a five-step process:1. Empathize: learn what the issues are.2. Define the problem: identify question you are going to answer.3. Ideate: generate possible solutions.4. Prototype: abandon perfection and either build your project or develop a plan.5. Test and get feedback from others.Roth says the individual steps aren’t as important as some of the guiding principles behind “design thinking”: a bias toward action and fear of failure. The point of “design thinking”is to challenge your automatic thinking and assumptions.Q12: What does this news report mainly talk aboutQ13: What is the title of the book written by Bernard RothQ14: What is the key point of design thinkingAnswer ABC。

It is a good idea to choose elective courses closely related to your chosen profession. Potential employers will appreciate every bit of extra training and knowledge that they don't have to give you. For example, you may select elective courses in chemistry, biology or even physics if you are doing a science major. For business majors, select electives in accounting, business administration, and even computing, as you'll never know when these will come in handy in the corporate world.Moreover, you can choose an education that includes many fields of study. If you are taking a heavy load of career-related courses, you may prefer electives that are not directly related to your major. If you receive a well-rounded education, some employers believe that you have better potential. For example, if you have courses in science along with your business degree, you could possibly win a job over someone who majored purely in business with no outside electives.Finally, you can also select a challenging elective course. Part of getting an education is learning how to learn, and elective courses should help you achieve this goal. You need not to memorize all the information from each class, but you should get a better understanding of the world. So, pick elective courses that challenge your belief system and make you look at the world in a different way. For instance, you can consider a philosophy elective if you have been told that you are a little narrow-minded.Key(1) extra training (2) chemistry(3) accounting (4) many fields of study(5) better potential (6) business degree(7) challenging (8) how to learn(9) better understanding (10) narrow-mindedTask3: How to Get Straight A’sScriptIt is interesting to note how straight A students achieve academic excellence. Here, according to education experts and students themselves are the secrets of super-achievers.First, they know how to set priorities. Top students allow no intrusions on study time. Once the books are open or the computer is turned on, phone calls go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks ignored. Study is business, and business comes before recreation.Also, good students can study anywhere and everywhere. Claudia Hill, an Arizona State University business professor recalls a cross-country runner who worked out every day. Hill persuaded him to use his spare time to memorize biology term. Then he posted a list of biology terms on the mirror in the bathroom. He learned a few terms every day while brushing his teeth. Eventually, he scored high on the final examination.Moreover, top students schedule their time well. Study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others awake early. Still others study as soon as they come home from school when the work is fresh in their minds. All agreed, however, on the need for consistency. A student says, “Whatever I was doing, I maintained a certain period of time every day for studying.”Another important characteristic of super-achievers is that they know hoe to read, According to a book entitled Getting Straight A’s, the secret of good reading is to be “an active reader-one who continually asks questions that lead to a full understanding of the author’s message”.1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about super—achievers starting to study2.What did the runner do to score high on the exam3.What is the good thing all top students agree on4.What does the speaker mean by “an active reader”5.What is the main idea of the passageKey: 1B .

I already have two reports, two books reports, a composition, an oral report, anda research project—all due before midterms.Nora: We could work together. Maybe some of my organized study habit would rub off on you.Chris: Better yet, maybe you could do my homework for me.Nora: Forget it! That would be cheating.Chris: All right, all right. I have yet to write a term paper. Can you recommend any articles and books You’d better find me the exact pages where I can find what I want.Nora: You could borrow ideas from references, but if you quote without giving the sources, you’re plagiarizing.Chris: The quiz next week will be a headache. If you don’t help me, I’ll have to prepare some study sheets and hide them in my hand when I take the test.Nora: Oh, no! If you’re caught, the professor will definitely give you an F. Probably, you will have to repeat the year.Chris: All right, I’ll take your advice. The library is going to be my new home, and in the dorm I’ll be burning the midnight oil.MODEL2 Which class do you preferScriptChris: First period is math with Mr. Woods. I don’t know how am I going to stay awakeNora: I like Mr. Wood. He’s interesting.Chris: He’s boring! He could put the entire basketball team to sleep—during the championship game!Who do you have for economicsNora: Mrs. Jenkins. She’s smart. Students really learn a lot from her.Chris: She’s tough! You have to work hard in her class, or you’ll probably fail.Nora:No pain, no gain.Chris: Nonsense, You could have learned even more with Mr. Sharp. But not many students opt for his class.Nora: What’s wrong with himChris: Often, the highest grade he gives on a term paper is C+, and he usually fails half of the students. Nora: No wonder he’s got the nickname Mr. Shark. Well, how about PE What are you doing this semester Chris: That’s the worst part. In PE, we’re learning t’ai chi. I’m bored to death.Nora: Ha-ha! Not to rub salt into the wound, but our class is playing your favorite sport: basketball. Chris: Oh…that figures!

It’s publish or perish.Chris: So you spent a lot of time in your officeProfessor Grant: Yes, but I also have to prepare class motes, give lectures, hold office hours. Teaching is an important part of being a professor.Chris: With all those responsibilities, you must make a lot of money.Professor Grant: I wish. Actually, I spend a lot of tome applying foe grants to fund my research. Then I can offer assistantships and scholarships to the worthy graduate.Chris: I see why they call you “the boss”. But being a professor sounds pretty competitive. Professor Grant: Actually, I think you were in one of my classes…Chris: Um….I think you’re mistaken, Professor Grant!Professor Grant: No, I remember very clearly now! You owe me an essay!Chris: Sorry, I have too much work to do for the Student Union Newsletter, and I have to work two jobs to pay for school.Professor Grant:So you get an F in this course.V. Let’s TalkInterviewee: It's a really difficult balance to strike, actually maintaining the (1)quality but making sure as many (2)young people as possible and older people as well-there's been a surge in the number of over 25s applying, andwe take many people who are over (3)25. But we've got to get that balance right. It's going to be terribly(4)difficult for us next year.Hostess: Given the cuts that the (5)government announced a couple of weeks ago, and the numbers that we know in terms of applications, where are you going to draw that line Are you going to have to look at cuttingintake in order to maintain the (6)quality of the coursesIntewiewee: We're trying not to (7)cut intake at the moment. But what it means is we're going to have to be(8)extra-cautious in the number of offers we make, because we simply cannot (9) afford to go over ourquota of the number of places that we can offer. Because if we do, it means that we could be fined, or wejust simply haven't got enough money to make sure the students' (10)experience is right. So it means thatmaybe last year we would allow a few (11) more people to have an offer. This year is going to be tougher. Hostess: Do you lay some of the (12)blame for the situation at the door of the governmentInterviewee: If you look to France, Sarkozy is actually increasing the (13)budget for higher education.Obama in the . has done the same thing. So we're just slightly (14)puzzled as to why the governmentseems to- be cutting back on higher education rather than pumping more money into what we think is a(15)service that is absolutely vital for the economy.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1:ScriptHi, everybody. My topic today is “Problems with Our Educational System”.There are a lot of things in our educational system that I don’t agree with. It seems that educators just want to give standardized tests, which focus only on academic performance but neglect students’ abilities and interests in other areas. I think there’re a lot of people who are very intelligent, but haven’t had the opportunities they could’ve had,had they been educated in a broader-minded educational systems. I feel that a lot of courses that students are focused to take in high school are too academic, and, as a result, many kids lost their interest in learning.Educators have failed to recognize various kinds of intelligence. They often exert a lot of pressure on students to be as well-rounded as possible. I think being well-rounded isn’t really possible. And as a consequence some students who are believed to be intelligent can’t get into good colleges if they, for example, haven’t scored well on the math section, even if they ate brilliant writers.Another thing that disturbs me is that the so-called “weak students” are separated from the rest of the school. Some kids are kept in a separate class id their grades are lower then others. And they’ve very aware of their social position, you know. I think it causes them to act in a way that is not really positive. They’re just acting in a way that they are expected to act. Often their grades go from bad to worse. And that’s pretty sad to me. I think that many of the kids in those classed are intelligent, but never actually realize their potential because of the way they are treated very early on in their education.Key(1) standardized tests (2) abilities and interest (3) interest (4) pressure(5)well-rounded (6) get into good colleges (7) the rest of the school (8) from bad to worse Task 2: The Final ExamScriptAt a university, there were four sophomores taking a chemistry course. They were doing so well on all the quizzes, midterms, labs, that each had “A” so far for the semester.These four friends were so confident that on the weekend before finals, they decided to go up to theUniversity of Virginia and party with some friends there. They had a great time, but after all the hearty partying, they slept all day Sunday and didn’t make it back to school until early Monday morning. Rather than taking the final then, they decided to find their professor after the final exam and explain to him why they missed it. They explained that they had planned to come back in time for the final exam, but, unfortunately, they had a flat tire on the way back, didn’t have a spare, and couldn’t get help for a long time. As a result, they missed the final.The professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up the final the following day. The guys were relieved and elated. The next day, the professor placed them in separate room, hand each of them a test booklet, and told them to begin.They took at the first problem, worth five points. It was a simple question on a chemical reaction. “Cool,”they thought at the same time, each one in his separate room, “This is going to be easy.” Each finished the problem and then turned the page.On the second page was a question worth 95 points: “Which of the tires was flat”Task 3 Harvard UniversityScriptHarvard University is the oldest institute of highest learning in her United States. Founded 16years after the arrival of the Pilgrim at Plymouth, the university has grown from 9 students with a single master to the present enrollment of more than 18,000students, including undergraduates and students in 10 graduate and professor schools. Over14, 000 people work at Harvard, including more than 2,000 faculties. Harvard has produces six presidents of the United States and 34 Noel winners.During its early years, Harvard offered a classic academic course based on the model of English universities, but consistent with the prevailing Puritan philosophy.

Now thanks for joining us this lunchtime, Mr. Lammy. How do these cuts_ tie in with your much trumpeted commitment to increasing higher educationInterviewee: Well, I think it's important to remind viewers that we will spend well over 12 billion pounds on higher education this year and to also say that there will be more students at university next year than ever before in our history. But what is important is that when they get to university, is that they have good facilities, good buildings, that they have good contact with their lecturers and, for students from poorer backgrounds that they receive a grant. And you know 40 percent of students who are going to university are in receipt of some grants. So we have to plan. . .Host: But there's going to be less money next year. That's the bottom line, isn't itInterviewee: Er, we are asking universities to make a one percent cut in their teaching grant. That's 51 million out of a total budget of over five billion. Look, I think there are families across the country preparing for Christmas spending a bit less and they're, you know, it's a lot more than one percent that they're, they're feeling. So I think this is reasonable to ask universities if we are to ensure that we can continue to send more young people to university and we remain committed to that.Host: And briefly, what about these two-year degrees This is a reduction in standards, isn't it Interviewee: Well, we, we, we. . . It's important in this country that we remember that students aren't just the classic 18- to 21-year-old undergraduates. We want mature students. We want more part-time students and over the last few years we've been growing the number of foundation degree, two-year degrees that ensure that transition into high university and high level skills.That's what we want to support and that's what we're indicating in the grant letter that we've sent to universities over the last few days.Host: OK.

Unit 3 Outside View Activity 1Activity 2Activity 3Listening inNews ReportActivity 1ScriptPrince George is influencing education just by going to school. Since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s announcement that the little prince will be attending a Montessori nursery school, more people have been interested in the Montessori method of education.The Maria Montessori Institute in London, which runs several schools and a Montessori teacher training centre, reports that there has been a 65 per cent increase in parents signing up for information about their schools compared to last year. Many are curious about the Montessori method, which focuses on the individual development of each child rather than tests and grades.Many people are also now interested in being a Montessori teacher. There is a specific training required for teachers at Montessori schools. There has been a 45 per cent increase in people looking to attend information sessions for teachers. The Maria Montessori Institute offers an open afternoon every so often when people can go and observe students, and those events have been fully booked since Prince George joined.1. What is the news report mainly about?2. What do we learn about Montessori schools from the news report?Activity 2ScriptLumos Labs, the company that developed the brain training app Lumosity, was recently fined $50 million by the Federal Trade Commission for deceiving its customers about the brain training benefits of its programmes. However, the company cannot afford to pay it, and will only pay $2 million to settle the charges.Launched in 2005, Lumosity has over 70 million registered users worldwide. For a monthly fee of $14.95, members have access to over 50 online and 25 mobile games. The games target and train specific areas of the brain. They are claimed to improve brain health, help you perform better at work and in school, and delay brain decline associated with age, if you play them three to four times a week for 15 minutes each time.However, the government found that Lumos Labs could not provide scientific evidence to support its claims that its games can improve memory, attention and focus. The $2 million settlement will be used to pay back users.1. What is the news report mainly about?2. What do we learn about Lumosity from the news report?Passage 1 Activity 1Activity 3Passage 2 Activity 1Activity 2Pronunciation Activity 2Unit TestSection AScript1.M: Sandra, how is your philosophy class going?W: Alright, I guess. We’ve been talking about Plato at great length, and are just now getting to Socrates.Q: What does the woman say she has been doing in class?2.W: My boss handed out the new organizational vision statement today at work.M: Let me guess –everyone should assimilate and work as one unit for the betterment of the whole company?W: You said it, there is just no room for individualism there.Q: What is the woman complaining about?3.W: What was it like to meet the president?M: Oh, just to be in his presence was overwhelming.Q: What does the man mean?4.W: I can’t seem to focus on anything the lecturer talks about in class.M: Oh, no, why not?W: She uses so much technical language that I quickly get confused.M: It’s important to not get bogged down in details. Remember to keep the topic of the lecture in mind and listen for the most important information. Q: What does the man say is important for the woman to do?5.M: I’m having a lot of trouble beginning this report. Do you have any advice? W: Sure. The first thing you need to do is determine the thrust of your argument and supporting evidence you will use.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do first?Answer ABDBCSection BScriptW: Hi, Steve, how was your day at work?M: Interesting! We took a questionnaire and it turned out that I’m a reflector.W: A what?M: A reflector. It’s my learning style. It means that I usually gather evidence before making a decision or judgment about something.W: Evidence? What kind of evidence?M: Well, like listening to other people’s ideas and partaking in activities that allow freedom to observe and reflect on things.W: Oh, I get it now. You like to listen and reflect on things before making a decision. , that sounds like you.M: It was a really affective activity to learn about ourselves. I wonder what learning style you have.W: I don’t know. I don’t think I’m a reflector though.M: Why not?W: It’s too passive. I like to work together with other people, focus on the problem and work out the solution to discussion and experimentation.M: Ok. I can definitely see that about you.Q6: How did the man discover his learning style?Q7: Which of the following is the likely context for this conversation?Q8: Which of the following would the woman likely be?Answer BCASection CScriptLast summer, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Beijing. It was a wonderful experience. The history and culture of the city were fascinating to me.One of the first things I noticed, however, was that Chinese people weren’t as direct as the people I knew back home in California. If a friend at home wanted to ask me a favor, he or she would come right out and ask. InChina, people would have a long conversation, asking questions and telling stories before finally asking the favor.At first, I thought everyone was just being overly polite in my presence since I was a foreigner and they wanted to be hospitable or maybe because they wanted to practice their English. However, I soon noticed that Chinese people had similar conversations among themselves. Very few people were direct. It felt like many people were talking in circles before they eventually arrived at their point.I’m not sure which method I prefer. Sometimes Americans can be too direct, it’s true. But it seems to me that Chinese are sometimes too circular, we must be able to strike a balance and find a happy medium.Q9: What probably is the speaker?Q10:With which of the following statements would the speaker probably agree?Q11: What can the information presented be best described as? Answer BACSection DScriptWhat’s something you’ve always wanted to accomplish but never have?Whatever it is, it probably seems like there are insurmountableobstacles standing between you and your goal. But the truth is,these goals are completely achievable —and in most cases, youare the only one holding yourself back.That’s according to Bernard Roth, a professor at Stanford University. Roth’s new book, The Achievement Habit, outlines how a strategy called "design thinking" can help you create meaningful challenges in your life. “Design thinking”is typically used to improve on a specific product or experience. Yet “the achievement habit”means how the very same processcan be turned inward, helping individuals become happier and more successful.Design thinking is a five-step process:1. Empathize: learn what the issues are.2. Define the problem: identify question you are going to answer.3. Ideate: generate possible solutions.4. Prototype: abandon perfection and either build your project or develop a plan.5. Test and get feedback from others.Roth says the individual steps aren’t as important as some of the guiding principles behind “design thinking”: a bias toward action and fear of failure. The point of “design thinking”is to challenge your automatic thinking and assumptions.Q12: What does this news report mainly talk about?Q13: What is the title of the book written by Bernard Roth?Q14: What is the key point of design thinking?Answer ABC。

Well, I still have ten minutes.Q: When is the man’s meeting?3. M: Thank you, Laura. We’d like to go to the barbecue with you. What time should we be thereW: Some people are coming around 11:00, and we’re going to play badminton, but we won’t eat until around 12:30.Q: At what time are they going to eat?4. M: I knew Dr. Smith’s birthday was October 26th, but I didn’t realize it was this Saturday.W: Let’s give him a surprise party. We could ask him to meet us at his office at 5, and then we could take him to dinner at the restaurant around 5:30.Q: What time does the woman suggest meeting Dr. Smith?5. M: I just read that Einstein was born on March 14, 1879, when very little was understood abouttime and energy.W: Absolutely. But when he died on April 18, 1955, people knew a lot more, and nuclear power stations had been built.Q: When was Einstein born?1.D2.B3.C4.A5.BIII. Listening InTask 1: A PictureI have a picture that sits on my desk in my bedroom. When I have trouble studying, or I’m worried about an exam, I just take a look at it. It is a picture of my best friends taken years ago when we were in high school. It reminds me of the good time we’ve shared and the support their friendship still gives me today. Even though our lives have gone in different directions, the bond we created has kept us close. Every week I get a message on my answering machine from one of them, or a letter in the mail with the latest news or vacation photos. I often get e-mail with a joke for the day, or words of comfort about some problems in my life. My friends have shown up for surprise birthday parties, and one of them even traveled two hours from the other end of town just to watch my first English speech contest. Our friendship has carried me through a lot of difficult experiences, and has enriched the good ones. It is the kind of friendship that outlasts disagreements, changes, and separation.1.C2.A3.D4.B5.BTask 2: Problem of Meeting PeopleAs a foreign student, I have a number of problems, both academically and socially. The biggest one is meeting people. I feel confident about my ability to cope with problems from my studies, but I’m not comfortable making friends with other students, especially local ones. Perhaps I’m worrying unnecessarily, but I find it difficult to talk to them and to make friends. The primary reasons is the language barrier. My English is quite standard and forma, and although that helps me with my academic work, I have trouble understanding other students when they are just talking. It seems to me that in order to meet with other students I really need informal, colloquial English. Besides, there’s the cultural gap. That’s why it’s so difficult for overseas students and native English speaking students to really get to know each other. I really want to overcome this difficulty. I guess the best way to begin is to start talking about course work that we share; and then I could suggest going for a cup of tea or coffee. Over coffee we could get to know each other. Another way would be to join a club, like a tennis club or a photo club, because that immediately gives you something in common with other people there. It gives you a starting point to build on.1.He has both academic and social problems.2.He fells confident about his ability to cope with his studies.3.The language barrier is the main reason why he finds it hard to make friends with localstudents.4.It is difficult for overseas students and native English speaking students to really get to knoweach other because there is the cultural gap.5.Te best way for the overseas students to actually overcome the difficulty of making friendswith native English speaking students is to start talking about course work.Task 3: Long Distance FriendshipsI have quite a few long distance friendships. How do I maintains these relationships? Well, I believe friendship is very important, But I also think friendship really needs tending—like plants in the garden. It’s important to keep up to date with my friends, something that’s hard to do with long distances between us. But over the years I have managed to stay very tight with my friends, even though distances separate us. Jane lives in another city, and she’s not much for writing letters, so we talk on the phone at least once a week, usually for an hour at a time. We take turns calling each other, so I stay close to her through the phone. My phone bills are high, but I consider them just another living expense, like rent. Other friends I e-mail. I have one friend who just isn’t into writing letters. I’ve known her for a long time. We’ve always considered ourselves friends, but over time I’ve always been in and out of touch with her. But she is always on-line—e-mail is her thing. Since I’ve gotten an e-mail address, I e-mail her twice a week. Now, I’m back in good touch with her. She’ll often sit down and write me e-mail, but she just wouldn’t do it with pen and paper. E-mail’s really a great way to keep in touch with friends.1.maintain2.tending3.date4.phone5.turns6.bills7.expenses8.e-mail 10.touchTask 4: An Announcement1.The Student Friendship Association2.outing3.school gate4.6:405.7 sharp6.on timeIV.

Y ou looked so tired and worried.Sarah: My roommate, Nicole, had a temperature last night, as high as 40 degrees centigrade!Susan: Terrible! Is she all right now?Sarah: I don’t know. She’s in hospital.Susan: I hope she’ll be fine.Sarah: So do I.V. Let’s TalkJack: Hi, I’ve been looking for you since the morni ng. I coul dn’t fi nd you anywhere.Jane: Y eah. I don’t feel like hanging out with the crowd any more, especially since Susan stopped coming to school.Jack: I know. It’s such a pity about her parents: losing one parent is bad enough, but losing themboth on the same day and in such an accident…It’s terribl e! H ave you seen her si nce?Jane: No. I tired talking to her on the phone. She sounded bad.Jack: The other day, I talked to Mr. Smith—you know that tall guy who works in the Dean’s Office. Apparently, Susan is thinking of dropping out of school. She has almost money, you know. Her parents didn’t have much savings.Jane: Y eah. I’ve been quite worried about her. But simply feelings sorry for her is not enough; we have to think of some way to help her. Have any suggestions?Jack: Well, I haven’t really thought about it. I could possibly give her some money. I’ve saved up from my part-time job.Jane: Wow. Y ou’re so generous! But…that wouldn’t be a long-term solution.Jack: That’s true…Perhaps we could help her find a part-time job.Jane: Good idea! The lady who runs the shop where I work at night could be helpful. If Susan is interested, I can introduce her to the lady.Jack: Great! Once she gets a regular income, things will be better. More than anything else, it will take her mind off her tragedy.Jane: Hmm…I was wondering, could we organize a fund-raiser for her?Jack: Well, I’m not so sure how that would work. Y ou know, taking help from us, her best friends, is one thing, but getting the whole school involved may not be a good idea.Jane: Y eah. Y ou’re right. We’ll think of something else. In the meantime let’s go ahead with what we’ve planned. (Looking at her watch) Oh! It’s five to two. I have a class. I gotta run. Let’s meet tonight. Bye!Jack: Bye!JACK ABEG Jane CDFFor ReferenceAA, break the bed news about Mary to B.It’s terrible! I heard that Mary’s father died of cancer.B, say what you feel about the news.Oh, my.

OK?A, show your agreement to B’s opinion.Good. I would also love to be helpful.VI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: W orry of a TeacherSusan Smith cared for her students very much, and they all liked her. She wanted them to learn and to be happy. She had a special relationship with one student, Doris. Doris had been to Susan’s house several times and had come to know her husband and children. Lately, Susan had been very worried about Doris because the student’s hometown had recently been hit by a strong earthquake. Susan observed that Doris had lost a lot of weight and often had dark circles under her eyes. She talked to Doris and was as helpful as she could be, but felt that Doris really should see a doctor. One day, Susan talked to Doris and suggested that she go to the health center to talk to one of the doctors. Doris’ face became very red. She said, “I don’t need a doctor. How could you make a suggestion like that? I thought you were my friend!” Susan was very surprised by Doris’ reaction. She said, “I’m sorry to have upset you. I just want to help.” After that conversation, Doris stopped talking to Susan. She also transferred out of her class.1. learn happy2. earthquake3. weight dark circles4. the health center turned red5. surprised talking transferredTask 2: How to build lifelong friendship?Y ou may have a lot of friends and expect your friendships to last a lifetime. However, lifelong friendships are not always what everybody can get. Friends sometimes misunderstand each other. For one thing, you may want your friends to be near at hand, but also you need your independence and privacy. For example, when one of your friends comes asking if it is all right to spend the evening in your house, sometimes you just say “no” to hi or her because it is nor convenient for you. Unfortunately, not all your friends understand this type of independence. They believe that friends can ask for any favor and the answer should always be “yes”. Also, misunderstanding sometimes occurs when you ask for help. Y ou expect your friends to help you mo matter what the circumstances are. But the fact is, your friends may not always drop everything to satisfy each of your needs. This may make you angry with them and your friendship could fade. The most important thing for you and your friends to do is to always show understanding and respect foreach other.1.T2.F3.F4.T5.TTask 3: At Your SideWhen the daylight’s gone and you’re on your own,And you need a friend just to be around.I will comfort you; I will take your hands.And I’ll pull you through, I will understand.And you know that I’ll be at your side.There’s no need to worry.Together we’ll survive through the haste and hurry.I’ll be at your side.If you feel like you’re alone, and you’ve nowhere to turn, I’ll be at your side.If life’s standing still and your soul’s confused,And you cannot find what road to choose.If you make mistakes,Y ou can’t let me down.I will still believe,。
