Their most audacious and significant attack to date came on Saturday with the capture of the Saudi-owned Sirius Star and its crew of 25 (including two Britons) which was taken 450 nautical miles (830km) off the coast of Kenya.The move was described as "unprecedented" by the US Navy due to the size of the vessel and the distance of the attack from the pirates' usual theatre of operations; the Sirius Star is the biggest ship taken by pirates so far, weighing three times more than an American aircraft carrier and capable of carrying 2m barrels of oil, valued at around $100m (683m Yuan).The pirates, who are often armed with AK-47s and rocket-propelled grenades, usually hijack ships in the Gulf of Aden using powerful speedboats to approach merchant ships which they board using grappling hooks and rope ladders.Once the crew has been taken hostage, the pirates direct the ship to a port in Somalia where the crew and boat are held until a ransom is paid. There are currently 14 ships and 268 crew being held in pirate-friendly Somali ports.Given that senior UN officials estimate that the pirates earn more than $100m (683m Yuan) a year from ransom payments made by ship owners, many ask why more military interventions don't take place.NATO warships are in the area but US Navy officials have told the BBC they can "not be everywhere". That said, an Indian Navy frigate attacked and sank a Somali pirate ‘mother ship' on Wednesday morning after coming under fire.Most hijackings, however, do end peacefully although it can be a lengthy process. On Wednesday the Hong Kong ship MV Great Creation and its crew of 25 Chinese and one Sri Lankan were released after two monthsof captivity.题目：1.Somali pirates have been successful in most of the hijackings.文本：你的答案:F正确答案:F得分:5.00题目：2.The pirates' capture of the British Sirius Star is the biggest ship taken by pirates so far.文本：你的答案:F正确答案:F得分:5.00题目：3.The pirates often hijack ships in the Gulf of Aden.文本：你的答案:T正确答案:T得分:5.00题目：4.Once the crew has been taken hostage, the pirates would not release the crew and boat until a ransom is paid.文本：你的答案:T正确答案:T得分:5.00题目：5.There are currently many ships and UN officials being held in Somali ports.文本：你的答案:F正确答案:F得分:5.00题目： Navy officials have said that they cannot guarantee the safety of the ships.文本：你的答案:T正确答案:T5.00题目：7.The Hong Kong ship MV Great Creation and its crew was released after two days of captivity.文本：你的答案:F正确答案:F得分:5.002.Exercise 2: Focus-listening: Listen to the passage and fill in the blanks with the missing information.1.

Speaking in Poland, the fourth stop of a five nation European tour, Mr. Bush endorsed a second wave of NATO expansion eastward. Poland was one of three former Warsaw Pact nations, along with Hungary and the Czech Republic, that became NATO members two years ago.At a news conference with his Polish counterpart, Aleksander Kwasniewski, Mr. Bush praised Poland's transformation to a democracy and a market economy saying it serves as a fine example for future members of NATO.The President looked forward to next year's NATO summit in Prague when the alliance is expected to welcome new members, but he avoided endorsing any specific candidates. Nine former communist bloc nations are seeking entry. "My government believes NATO should expand," he said. "We believe no one should be excluded because of history or location or geography. We do not believe any nation should have a veto over who is accepted." His last point is a reference to Russian objections to extending the NATO defense umbrella, especially to the Baltic states, which were once annexed by the Soviet Union.Mr. Bush says Russia should not view NATO enlargement as a threat, but as a way to create a more stable and peaceful Europe. "Russia should not fear the expansion of freedom-loving people to her borders," It isan argument he will make directly to Russian President Vladimir Putin when he meets him in Slovenia Saturday. Mr. Bush is also expected to try to persuade Mr. Putin of the merits of his missile defense plan, which Moscow fears could undermine nuclear deterrence. In addition, the president says he plans to question the Russian leader about reports of weapons proliferation along Russia's southern border. Mr. Bush has cited weapons proliferation as one of the reasons why a missile defense is necessary.The President will have more to say about European security when he delivers his only speech of his trip at Warsaw University later Friday.题目：1.Poland is the _______ stop of President Bush's five nation European tour.文本：A)FirstB)SecondC)ThirdD)Fourth你的答案:D正确答案:D得分:7.00题目：2.All of the following were former members of Warsaw Pact nations mentioned in the passage except______.文本：A)PolandB)HungaryC)Czech RepublicD)Italy你的答案:D正确答案:D得分:7.00题目：3.According to the passage, the next year's NATO summit will be held in______.文本：A)ParisB)MoscowC)PragueD)Washington你的答案:C正确答案:C得分:7.002.Passage One Exercise 2: Listen to the passage and decide whether the following statements are true or false, write T for true, F for false.NATO Expansion No Threat to Russia, says BushPresident Bush says Russia should not feel threatened by NATO enlargement.

What it means, in effect, is that as soon as practical we will resume our operations. What we had called for were credible assurances. The credibility attaches in this case from the level that the assurances flow - the very highest level of government in Israel. That will be taken at face value as it is given in good faith, it will be taken in good faith," he said.Ging said his agency is willing to take reasonable risks encountered in a combat zone, but those recent incidents, including Israeli strikes on several U.N.-run schools and on the U.N. aid convoy were unacceptable. He has said previously that the movement of the convoy had been coordinated in advance with the Israeli military and that they knew the coordinates of all U.N. facilities.In a statement, the United Nations said it was informed by Israeli authorities that they "deeply regretted" the incidents that led to the aid operation suspension and that they do not reflect official government policy. The U.N. said it received "credible assurances" that the security of U.N. personnel, installations and humanitarian operations would be fully respected.UNRWA feeds 750,000 Palestinian refugees in Gaza.Late Thursday, the U.N. Security Council adopted a resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire in Gaza, but so far both Israel and Hamas have rejected the demand.你的答案:suspended正确答案:suspended得分:7.00题目：2.文本：你的答案:aid truck正确答案:aid truck得分:7.00题目：3.文本：你的答案: informed正确答案: informed得分:7.00题目：4.文本：你的答案: deeply regretted 正确答案:deeply regretted 得分:8.00题目：5.文本：你的答案: security正确答案: security得分:7.00题目：6.文本：你的答案:have rejected正确答案:have rejected得分:8.00题目：7.文本：你的答案: cease-fire正确答案:cease-fire得分:7.00。

Many of them do this during a gap year between finishing school and starting in higher education. Volunteers learn to solve problems, work together as a team and develop their personalities. Communities in need get help they couldn't afford to pay for. In Britain, one of the main agencies for voluntary work is Raleigh International. It arranges for thousands of people, aged between 17 and 25, to help out in their own country or abroad.This group of 100 people has just arrived at the base camp in Costa Rica. In the next ten weeks, they are taking part in three different projects. One of the projects is environmental, one community-based and one an adventure project. But first, they have training for the conditions they will encounter. For the environmental project at Curu, the volunteers are going to help to build an artificial reef from recycled materials. This forms a protective environment for the fish to breed and feed. It helps the local economy of commercial fishing and protects the natural reefs from over-fishing and destruction. The community project is in one of the poorest rural areas in the world. In the village of El Porvenir, volunteers are going to make bricks.They're going to help to build a storehouse for the important sesame crop. If they have more storage, the villagers will be able to make more money from selling sesame. Volunteers also take part in a survival activity. Tomorrow, this group is trekking to the summit of Costa Rica's highest mountain, Mount Chirripo. At the end of the ten weeks, the volunteers are proud that their efforts have helped to improve the lives of the people and the environment of Costa Rica and Nicaragua.Unit 8-Listening inNews reportA survey of more than 14,000 UK residents has revealed that being an author is the most desired job in Britain. Sixty per cent of adults would like to write for a living, followed by 54 per cent who want to be a librarian and 51 per cent who want to be an academic.The survey shows that people prefer literary jobs to jobs in medicine, film and investment banking, which may be surprising to some since literary jobs often do not pay as well as other professions. The average salary for professional authors in Britain is ￡11,000, which is less than the minimum incom e. Librarians make between ￡19,500 and ￡29,500 annually, depending on the type of library one works in. However, it’s not a secure job because the government is planning to close more than 10 per cent of British libraries, which means many librarian jobs will be cut. Academics can earn more, depending on their experience and level of education.1.What is the most desired job in Britain2.What do we learn about literary jobs in Britain from the news reportPassage 1Speaker 1 So how's it all goingSpeaker 2 Well, second year exams are in two weeks, so it's all go at the moment.Speaker 1 It's notgoing to ease up! So what can I do for youSpeaker2 Well, next year's my final year and I need to think seriously about my career.Speaker 1 I would agree with you there. Let's havea look atyour file. You're reading English, you're getting good grades,you got a merit in your first year exams and you're on trackfor a 2:1 according to your tutor. Have you any idea whatyou'd like to doSpeaker 2 I'm very drawn to publishing. I read a lot ofnovels and I'm quite a good critic.Speaker 1That's a good start. I'm guessing you'd like to be aliterary editorSpeaker 2 That's right.Speaker 1Well, I should tell you that literary editing is a hardprofession to get into and it doesn't pay very well, unlessyou're at the top. You could think a bit more broadly than justliterature. For example, there's educational publishing,professional publishing and there's also specialist publishing,such as sports.Speaker 2 I'm not very sporty.Speaker 1 Well, I understand sport may not be your thingbut... you get the idea.Speaker 2 Yes, I do. So how do I startSpeaker 1 First of all, you need a good degree but even before that I would contact publishers and see if they'll offer you work experience. You won't get paid, of course, but it's good for your CV and you'll learn something about the business.Speaker 2 Right. How do I find out who to write to Speaker 1All the publishers are listed in the Publisher's Yearbook. There's a copy in the library in the careers section, so you can use that for a start. Check the job adverts in the newspapers and maybe look at the specialist publishing trade journal, the Bookseller. That has job ads as well.Speaker 2 Thank you.Speaker 1 The other thing you might do is check the Internet - sometimes, the publishers' websites offer internships or job experience opportunities for new graduates.Speaker 2 I'll do that.Speaker 1One other thing. Graduates studying Englishalways want to be an editor, they're quite romantic about it,but there are other departments - marketing, sales, and theproduction side. Don't dismiss those.Speaker2 Thanks for the advice, it's very helpful.But it'sliterary editing that I want to do.Speaker 1 Well, I wish you the best. Let me know how youget on. And good luck with your exams.Passage 2Harry So how was your first day of teaching, Lucy Lucy It was all right - wasn't as terrifying as I thought it would be.Harry Well done!Lucy Yes, I was frightened I'd go completely blank but it was OK. I think the students were happy. It's the grammar I find difficult, there's so much to cover.Jessica It's extraordinary, isn't it We speak English, we think we know the grammar and then we do a teaching English course and discover we don't know anything.Lucy How long have you been teaching, Jessica Jessica Just over two years. I did the training course and then got a job teaching in Japan —Tokyo. It was an eye-opener really - the whole thing about keeping face. You have to be so polite all the time. Patrick So you're teaching English because you want to travel Jessica Yes, that's part of it, but also because I enjoy it, I enjoy the interaction with students, and also it's a good career.Patrick I feel the same. So what do you want to do nextJessica Marketing, I think. I'm going to do a year here, then -1 hope - get a job at a language school in London, do my MA, then apply for a marketing job. Anyway, that's the plan.Patrick Sounds good.Harry What about you, Patrick Where have you worked Patrick I did three years in Italy - Director of Studies in Rome. I want to spend a couple of years here, then work in London, hopefully become a teacher trainer. Your turn. Harry.Harry Well, I'm not like you and Jessica. I'm just happy to be here, in a beautiful city doing a job I enjoy.Jessica You don't see teaching English as a career Harry Well, my thing is travel, for the moment anyway.Lucy Which countries have you been to, Harry Harry I did a year's teaching in Brazil - Rio de Janeiro —such a stunning city and stunning beaches, Copacabana, and all overlooked by Sugar Loaf mountain.Patrick Cool. And thenHarry Two years in Mexico City ...Jessica You should be a travel writer.Harry I'm too busy travelling! In fact I just arrived from Spain three days ago, from Barcelona, I was teaching primary school kids.Lucy Great!Harry Well, we're all giving our reasons forteaching English, so what's yours, LucyLucy Um -I think I'm going to really enjoy it, simple as that. And obviously it's great to be in Italy. I mean Venice, what more can you ask。

It had risen 2.96 percent to a five-month high on Monday, bringing its gains this year to 31 percent.Turnover in Shanghai A shares remained very heavy at 168.8 billion yuan, though it was down from 177.5 billion yuan on Monday, when full-day turnover neared levels last seen during the stock market bubble of 2007.Data last week showed new yuan lending soared to a record 1.62 trillion yuan in January. The news accelerated the stock market’s uptrend by fuelling hopes that economic growth might soon start to recover.But 39 percent of the new loans were in the form of short-term discounted bill financing, up from an average 13 percent in 2008. Some analysts believe much of the money raised via bill financing went to chase short-term profits in the stock market, rather than into long-term investment in companies' operations as authorities hope.The banking regulator is investigating the jump in discounted bill financing, fearing it could create excessive risks, China Business News reported on Monday.Vanke, China's biggest listed property developer, tumbled 5.05 percent to 8.08 yuan amid concern that authorities could become less willing to cut interest rates further if they felt that the discounted bill and stock markets were overheating.Hong Kong shares slid 3.8 percent yesterday, its biggest percentage drop in more than five weeks, after the Shanghai bourse broke its long-running rally.Worries about slowing corporate earnings and likely capital raising weighed on shares across the board, with four stocks in the red for every one in the black.The benchmark Hang Seng Index ended 510.48 points lower at 12945.40 with investors fretting over a likely weak start on Wall Street later.你的答案:fell正确答案:fell得分:12.50题目：2.文本：你的答案:2319.441正确答案:2319.441得分:12.50题目：3.文本：你的答案:soared正确答案:soared得分:12.50题目：4.文本：你的答案:regulator正确答案:regulator得分:12.50题目：5.文本：你的答案:discounted正确答案:discounted得分:12.502.Passage Two Blank Filling: Listen to the passage, and fill in the blanks with the missing information.题目：1.Not on ________ payment, a whole house for a grand.文本：How about a House for a Thousand Bucks?How about a house for a thousand bucks? Not on monthly payment, a whole house for a grand. It may sound unbelievable,but it's happening in some cities due to the explosion in foreclosures. Now they may not be pretty or in the best part of town, but some sellers just want them off their books.Take this one in Detroit, a three-bed, one-bath bungalow with about a thousand square feet, of course, it needs a total renovation inside but the exterior, well, it's in fairly good shape, the price tag, that looks even better, it's just 500 bucks. Or this home in Cleveland, a four-bed, one-and-a half bath selling for 1900 bucks. For the same amount you could get this house in Birmingham, Alabama. It's had major fire damage but it's located on a public road and sits on about a third of an acre.To be sure, you will have to put more than a thousand bucks into these homes to bring them up to code. But four walls and a roof for about a grand, that may make a lot of sense to folks these days. But as always, be careful at what you buy.你的答案:monthly正确答案:monthly得分:12.50题目：2.For the same ______ you could get this house in Birmingham, Alabama.文本：你的答案:amount正确答案:amount得分:12.50题目：3.T o be sure, you will have to put more than a thousand bucks into these homes to bring them up to _______.文本：你的答案:code正确答案:code得分:12.50。

准备阶段1.Exercise 1: Listen to this passage and decide whether the following statements are true or false, write T for true and F for false.老师意见:EU Opens Online LibraryCall it the 21st century version of the famous Alexandria library that served as a hub of knowledge in ancient times. Europe is offering a similar trove of information via the Internet - allowing users to access tens of thousands of paintings, books, manuscripts, sound recordings, newspapers and other items from across the European Union. European Commission spokesman Martyn Selmayr says the Europeana digital library is planning to expand enormously in the years to come.“Today is just the beginning,” he said. “We have two million objects today on Europeana - cultural objects which exist in digital form. Our objective is to have by the year 2010, 10 million digitized objects available from all over Europe and they will be offered in 23 languages so everybody around the world has access to these cultural heritages of the European Union member states.That includes digitalized representations of masterpieces from the Louvre museum in Paris or manuscripts of composers like Beethoven - or books from libraries around Europe - although only a small fraction of the region’s 2.5 billion books wil l be available online in the coming years.The project is one way to showcase the European Union - this time through its cultural heritage.“On the one side it shows that Europe is made up not of a single unified culture but that it has 27 nations and each one of them has a very long history,” said Selmayr. “It also shows what we have in common and gives the perspective of the neighbors.”“For example, that’s very interesting to see that the fall of the Berlin Wall - very important for German history and also for European history - is something you can find on Europeana in the form of a film that is today stored in the French national audiovisual institute.

So it really got into me. Then he had to buy me a piano to start training myself on how to play the piano.”Njoroge was one of three Kenyan tenors who sang recently in honor of Luciano Pavarotti, the late Italian tenor who Njorge hopes to emulate.Kenya’s boom in classical music is especially pronounced among the young. Enrollment in private tutoring sessions at the Kenya Conservatoire of Music has gone up 25 percentwithin the past two years. Three radio stations in Kenya now offer regular classical music programming.Elizabeth Njoroge studied classical music abroad. Back home the soprano not only performs, this year she also founded the magazine Classics, for Kenya’s classical musical lovers.“In Kenya as a whole I think there has been a rebirth of the arts, and not just music”. “There are also a lot more plays happening, more art exhibitions.”Njoroge says the country’s growing middle class now has more money, time and other resources to appreciate and pursue the arts.Kenya has a rich heritage of traditional music, with the country’s many ethnic cultures having distinctive instruments and beats.Music teacher Lola Akwabi says she thinks the presence of western classical music in Kenya does not detract from the country’s homegrown music, that there is room for both.“It is very interesting that someone will actually walk in here and tell me, you know why are you doing this Western culture, why aren’t you doing your African culture? And I am thinking, you should be dressed in a skin, speaking Swahili asking me that question,” Akwabi said.Any debate over Kenya’s native music is far from student Jonathan Wamukota’s mind. He says he loves Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata.”“A nice, still water edge, it is just as the moon is rising and just a sliver of moonlight pierces through the trees and just lands on the water and the reflection is slowly dancing there”.Images and beauty Wamukota says he gets from the music he loves.题目：1.Bach, Beethoven and other giants of Western popular music are becoming more of a hit in Kenya, especially among young people.文本：你的答案:正确答案:F得分:老师意见:题目：2.Njoroge was one of three Kenyan tenors who sang recently in honor of Luciano Pavarotti, the late Kenyan tenor who Njorge hopes to emulate.文本：你的答案:正确答案:F得分:老师意见:题目：3.Enrollment in public tutoring sessions at the Kenya Conservatoire of Music has gone up 2.5 percent within the past two years.文本：你的答案:正确答案:F得分:老师意见:题目：4.The presence of western classical music in Kenya does detract from the country’s homegrown music, that there is no room for both actually.文本：你的答案:正确答案:F得分:老师意见:题目：5.Kenya has a rich heritage of traditio nal music, with the country’s many ethnic cultures having distinctive instruments and beats.文本：你的答案:正确答案:T得分:老师意见:2.Exercise 2: Listening for Comprehensive Understanding: Listen to the passage and answer the following questions.老师意见:Western Classical Music Gains Popularity in KenyaTenor Zac Njoroge is on his way to Israel, where he was given a music scholarship to study performance and conducting.The 21-year-old, who dreams of starting up an opera house in Kenya, says classical music is his passion.“My dad used to play this in the car, everywhere, as we were going to church,” Njoroge said. “He used to play this music at home.

But its roots run much deeper.Made from the seed of the tropical cacao tree, chocolate dates back at least 3,000 years to the ancient civilizations of Central and South America, where the cacao tree is native. The Aztec people valued the tree’s cocoa beans so much, they used them as currency.In what is now Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, in the southwestern United States, new archaeological evidence shows that people were eating chocolate here more than 1,000 years ago.And they’re still at it. Today, the average American eats almost 5 kilograms of chocolate each year.Cheri Friedman knows how much America loves chocolate. She is co-owner of Kron Chocolatiers, a small, gourmet chocolate shop that opened 32 years ago in Washington, D.C.“I think it’s one of the best comfort foods there is. It’s easy to eat. It melts in your mouth. There’s a warm sensation,”Friedman says she takes pride in the fact that Kron’s chocolates are made with the finest ingredients, right on the premises.“You can definitely taste the difference between something that’s just been poured, hot off the presses to having sat on the shelf for three to six months; some of the larger corporations tend to do.Friedman’s partner and Kron’s chief chocolate-maker, Trish Schutz, says the shop is doing well, with good reason.“Well, it’s very good chocolate, and we have a large retu rn client base that comes back and back.”Dan Melman is one of those clients. “The cream truffles they make here are so decadent I remember reading about them years ago and tried them, and I’ve continued to come back again and again,, calling them”(Chocolate stores spread nationwide)Americans’ love of chocolate has helped to make it a big business in this country.

They started with small stores - much like Kron - but soon expanded their business into broader markets - thanks, Sesler notes, to an important technological advance.“It’s the advent of refrigeration that has really made the availability of chocolate very prevalent throughout the United States,I think Chocolate has secured its place as a delectable treat for a number of societies and a number of countries so I think we are just one of the many countries to enjoy the delicacy that is chocolate.题目：1.The Aztec people valued chocolate so much, they used them as currency.文本：你的答案:正确答案:F得分:老师意见:题目：2.In what is now Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, in the southwestern United States, new archaeological evidence shows that people were eating chocolate here more than 3,000 years ago.文本：你的答案:正确答案:F得分:老师意见:题目：3.There is some difference between the chocolate that’s just been poured, hot off the presses,and the chocolate that has sat on the shelf for three to six months.文本：你的答案:正确答案:T得分:老师意见:题目：4.Kron Chocolatiers, a big, gourmet chocolate shop has a large return client base that comes back and back.文本：你的答案:正确答案:F得分:老师意见:2.Exercise 2: Listening for Specific Facts: Listen to the passage and answer the following questions.老师意见:Americans Have Longstanding Love Affair with ChocolateChocolate is as big a part of American culture as baseball and apple pie.

One of the main ingredients in chocolate is cocoa butter. And cocoa butter melts at body temperature,” So when you put chocolate inyour mouth, it has a mouth feel that’s unlike any other food that you eat. It has thatmelt-in-your mouth sensation right there on your tongue, and it is very hard to approximate that with any other food.”But that melt-in-your-mouth sensation comes at a price. Chocolate as we know it today is made with lots of sugar and milk, both very high in calories. That’s given chocolate a rather bad reputation among nutritionists.In recent years, however, research has proved that chocolate, particularly dark chocolate, is also naturally rich in cancer-fighting antioxidants - a fact that chocolate manufacturers like Russell Stover are happily promoting.“Anything that creates such emotional bonds as chocolate- and also actually can be good for you - is just another reason to enjoy chocolate throughout your day.Kron’s Cheri Friedman has noticed the trend. “In the last two years, partly due to media putting it out there that dark chocolate have definitely picked up.”But Friedman has also noticed something else. “And also the educated some, they are coming in a lot more and really being sele ctive on what they decide to put in their mouth”. Susan Fussell agrees.“We do see a trend towards more gourmet and premium chocolates, and it’s interesting. We see that trend really strengthening, even in a time of economic hardship.”But no matter the preference, Fussell says when it comes to holidays, chocolate is king, especially on Valentine’s Day, every February 14th. That’s a day when people all across the country express their love for one another with gifts, flowers, cards a nd - more often than not - chocolates.“Valentine’s Day itself, February 14th, is the single largest sales day during the year for sales of boxed chocolates,” she says.Back to a busy weekday afternoon, customers such as 24-year-old Kron Gill were shopping for Valentine’s Day treats.“I love chocolates; I’m in this store because I like its particular kind”. While others were simply celebrating the joys of chocolate.“I love chocolates more than other kinds of sweets”, “they are lovely, I love them”, “cause they taste good,ok？” “We love chocolates”, “It’s delicious, it’s good for you”, “I eat more chocolate than I should, even at my age”, “you know it has a wonderful mouth fills to it whether it has whatever in it, it just makes you hap pier in having it”,” It’s good for your soul, and it’s good for your stomach and makes you feel good, and there’s nothing better when you are happy or depressed. Have a pound of chocolate.”, “Thanks for a lot of happy on Valentine’s Day”.题目：1.What is the main idea of this piece of news?文本：。

《大学英语II》新闻听力训练 原文
联合国气候变化大会在巴黎召开The United Nations Conference on Climate Change has opened in Paris with world leaders all describing global warming as an urgent threat. Leaders of the countries, most vulnerable to drought and rising sea levels said immediate action was required to prevent catastrophe. Negotiators have 12 days to reach agreement on limiting the rise in global temperatures to two degree Celsius about pre-industrial levels. Nigeria’s environment minister Amina Mohamed said there was an air of optimism around the conference on its first day. “Everybody is pretty upbeat here. The pressure is to keep the momentum and the ambition and I think people are hopeful. And certainly we are having conversations here in Paris that haven’t happened over the last few years. A lot is already on the table. It is really for us to try to put that into agreement.”发现马航MH370疑似残骸The French authorities will fly a piece of aircraft debris from an Indian Ocean island to France later today where it will be examined to see if it comes from a missing Malaysian airliner. Experts say it appears to be a wing component from a Boeing 777. Jennifer Park reports from Kuala Lumpur.“Malaysia’s Prime Minister Najib Razak says initial reports on the debris show it was very likely from a Boeing 777 but that it is too early to speculate whether it belongs to MH370 until his investigators can examine it. One Malaysian team has been sent to where the debris was found and another to the French city of Toulouse for the inspection. Officials say it may be several days before they have any answers.”A top Australian official has told the BBC he’s increasingly confident that the wreckage found in Reunion is from the missing Malaysian airliner. Martin Donald heads the Australian Transport Safety Bureau which is leading the search for the plane in the Eastern Indian Ocean. He said he still believed the search would eventually find the passenger plane.“The analysis that we've done with the satellite data is highly reliable, and the search vessels, equipment and cruise we have had on the Indian Ocean, covering the area very thoroughly also are of high quality highly reliable. So we think we are looking into right place to a high degree of certainty and we are confident that we have the quality research to cover that area and find the missing aircraft.”欧元区财长为解决希腊债务危机提出新方案Euro zone treasury officials have begun assessing the latest Greek proposals for a way out of the debt crisis. The package that Athens submitted on Thursday to its international creditors includes the kind of austerity measures that Greek voters rejected in a referendum last Sunday. Chris Morris reports from Brussels. “The proposals include tax rises, pension reforms, spending cuts and promises of privatization. M easures rejected in last Sunday’s referendum will now be conceded. But this is no capitulation by the Prime Minister, Alexis Tsipras. In return, he is asking for far more than was offered last month. Greece wants a new three-year bailout from the Euro zone. It wants more support to promote economic growth, and it wants its huge debt burden to be restructured. In that, it now has support from the IMF, the U.S. Treasury and the President of the European Council, Donald Tusk.”News Item 4尼泊尔发生大地震The government of Nepal says it believes at least fifteen hundred people have been killed by a devastating earthquake. The Information Minister, Minendra Rijal, says that number could triple in the next 24 hours, as many people are still thought to be buried in the debris of collapsed buildings. Mr. Rijal said it was a calamity of enormous proportions. The epicenter of the quake was between the capital, Kathmandu and the city of Bokhara. A BBC journalist in Kathmandu says thousands of people are spending the night outside in the open, fearing further tremors.The earthquake triggered avalanches in the Himalayas, and a number of climbers are known to have died on Mount Everest. Neil Norton, who’s leading a team of climbers on the north side of the mountain, said the fate of climbers on the southern side was uncertain. Many countries and international charities have offered aid to Nepal to deal with the disaster. Neighbouring India was the first to send several aircrafts, carrying medical supplies and a mobile hospital. Bailly Sames is from the British Red Cross. “Certainly, shelter and food is something that we are hearing is really urgent. Even if the homes haven’t collapsed completely, they are still having aftershocks at the moment, so people are camping out in the open air. And some people, they’ve just lost their homes entirely. But there’s whole neighbourhood we haven’t even heard from yet. Especially towards the epicentre, there’s been landslides. We can’t get to them. We are not hearing from them. And we fear when we do reach these places, the situation is going to be much worse.”1.urgent adj. 紧迫的，紧急的，急迫的2.catastrophe n. 大灾难；大灾祸3.negotiator n. 协商者，谈判者4.minister n. 大臣，部长5.conference n. 会议；协商，谈判6.optimism n. 乐观7.momentum n. 动力，冲力，势头8.speculate v. 思索；推测；投机9.inspection n. 检查，审查；视察10.assess v. 估价，评估；估算，估计11.proposal n. 提议，建议，提案12.submit v. 屈服；提交，呈递13.referendum n. 全民投票（公决）；公投14.bailout n. 紧急援助15.restructure v. 改建，重组，调整16.devastating adj. 毁灭性的17.calamity n. 灾难，灾祸，灾害18.epicenter n. 震中，中心19.trigger n.

It’s a smart watch that can be used to make phone calls, receive emails, play music and track health and fitness. Apple’s boss is Tim Cook.“Right from your wrist, you can receive messages, and a tactic engine alerts you by tapping your wrist, so that you can read and respond that message instantly if you want. You can also, with a built-in speaker and microphone, you can receive calls on your watch. I have been wanting to do this since I was five years old. The device will go on sale next month, its price is ranging from about 350 to 10,000 dollars.”News Item 6超强台风肆虐菲律宾The president of the Philippines Benigno Aquino says his government is still trying to establish the number of people killed by typhoon Haiyan which ravished the country five days ago. He said initial reports that 10,000 people had died were too high. The latest estimate was about 2,500. Mr. Aquino said no one had imagined the sheer magnitude of the super typhoon. Tens of thousands of survivors are in desperate need of food, water and shelter as Jonathan Head reports from the devastated city of Tacloban.The power of last Friday’s typhoon has made most of Tacloban uninhabitable. Several thousand people have already left on the military transport planes that fly in every hour. But most of the city’s population is still stuck here trying to scavenge what they can and to avoid the many corpses still buried beneath. Shelter is becoming an urgent need but even more worrying is the dwindling food supply. Outside Tacloban the promises of substantial international aid keep piling up, inside the city though, very little has arrived, that fueling rising anger.The United Nations estimates that more than 11 million people were affected by the storm and nearly 700,000 displaced. The UN humanitarian operations director John Ging said aid efforts were been hampered by the scare of the destruction.“You’ve got to get the aid, from the airports, from the ports into the areas which a re completely devastated including the road network. So the mobilization of air assets clearing a way the debris opening up the routes, this is top priority. It’s happening, it’s happening too slowly, but it’s happening and everybody is working flat-out to make it better.”News Item 7聚焦美国总统选举制Americans vote for their next president on November 6. But the real presidential election takes place on December 17, and only 538 people are involved. This small group is called “the Electoral College”.But The U.S. Constitution was forged in 1787, no European nation had its citizens directly elect their Head of State. Lacking such a template, the Constitution’s writers devised a two-step system by which people would cast ballots, but their votes would be conveyed to a small group, the Electoral College, which meeting state-by-state about a month after the popular vote, actually selects the president.The number of each State’s electors is explained by an American University Professor Curtis Gans. “Both electors are the, in number, Congressional delegation in each state -- two for the Senate, and however many Representatives. And, they are elected by a winner-take-all vote in the States.Except for two states, Nebraska and Maine, which assign electors proportionately according to the popular vote in each Congressional district. There are also three additional electors representing the District of Columbia, for a total of 538.A simple majority of 270 produces a president. But if no candidate comes up with that, the Constitution provides for the House of Representatives to select the next president, but that has not happened in more than 200 years. And, while most presidential elections have one candidate winning both a majority of the popular vote and the Electoral College, an exception took place in 2000.Democrat Al Gore won the national popular vote by more than half a million ballots, and had clear control of 266 Electoral College votes. But his challenger, Republican George W. Bush, led by a tiny fraction in the State of Florida.Gore demanded a partial recount, which Bush challenged all the way to the Supreme Court. More than a month after the election, the Court sided with Bush, effectively awarding him Florida’s 25 electoral votes and the White House.Both parties are so entrenched in gaming the current Electoral College system that George Mason University Professor Dennis Johnson says he doesn’t expect a change.News Item 8互联网巨头“腾讯”的崛起The Chinese gaming and social-media firm started in the same way many local internet firms have: by copying Western success. “QQ”, its instant-messaging service, is a clone of ICQ, an Israeli invention acquired by AOL of America. And unlike global internet giants such as Google and Twitter, Tencent still makes its money in its protected home market.However, Tencent now has bigger revenues and profits than Facebook. In the first half of this year Tencent enjoyed revenues of 4.5 billion dollars and gross profits of 2.5 billion dollars, whereas Facebook saw revenues of 3.3 billion dollars and gross profits of 935 million dollars.Tencent does give its services away: QQ is used by 800 million people, and its WeChat social-networking app (which in itially resembled America’s WhatsApp) has several hundred million users. Once users are hooked on a popular game, Tencent then persuades them to pay for “value-added services” such as fancy weapons, snazzy costumes for their avatars and online VIP rooms.This year China has overtaken America to become the world’s biggest E-commerce market, in terms of sales. It is also now the biggest market for smart phones. This means it may soon have the world’s dominant market in “M-commerce”, purchases on mobile devic es. Ten cent’s main rivals in Chinese commerce are Baidu, which dominates search on desktop computers (helped by the government’s suppress ion of Google) and Alibaba, an E-commerce giant now preparing for a huge share offering. All three have gone on acquisition sprees, in an attempt to lead the market. The big worry for investors is the cost of this arms race. Alibaba recently invested 300 million dollars in “AutoNavi”, an online-mapping firm, and nearly 600 million dollars in Sina Weibo, China’s equivalent of Twitter. Baidu has been even more ambitious, spending 1.85 billion dollars to buy “91 Wireless”, the country’s biggest third-party store for smart phone apps, and 370 millions for “PPS”, an online-video firm.Tencent may have an edge over its two rivals in M-commerce because of the wild popularity of WeChat, which is used on mobile phones. But to ensure it stays in the race, it is also spending heavily. On September 16th it said it will spend 448 million dollars to acquire a big stake in Sogou, an online-search firm; it plans to merge its own flagging search engine (aptly named Soso) into the venture.1.unveil v. 除去面纱（或覆盖物）；揭幕；揭露2.tactic n. 战术，策略3.ravish v. 使欣喜若狂；使着迷；使心醉4.estimate v. / n. 估计，估价，评价5.survivor n. 幸存者，生还者6.shelter n. / v. 遮蔽；保护 n. 避难所7.uninhabitable adj. 不适宜居住的itary adj. 军事的，军用的，军人的 n. 军人，军队9.humanitarian adj. 人道主义的；慈善的；博爱的n. 人道主义者，慈善家10.hamper v. 妨碍，束缚，限制11.scare v. 恐吓，使恐慌 n. 惊恐，惊吓；大恐慌12.destruction n. 破坏，毁灭13.priority n. 优先权，重点，优先考虑的事14.template n. 样板，模板15.ballot n. / v. 投票表决，选举 n. 选票16.delegation n. 代表团17.revenue n. 收入，收益；财政收入，税收18.hook n. 钩子，挂钩 v. 钩住，挂住；吸引，迷住19.rival n. 对手，竞争者 v. 竞争，对抗20.merge v. 合并，兼并；融合。

新标准大学英语综合教程2 Unit 8课文翻译
Unit 8Active Reading (1)绘画消遣（节选）1 一位天才美国心理学家说过：“烦恼是感情的发作；此时大脑缠住了某种东西不肯放手。
”在这种情况下，和头脑争论（让它放手）是无用的。
愿望越强烈，与之争论就越是徒劳。
你只能温和地将另一种东西慢慢灌输到痉挛状态的头脑中。
如果（这一东西）选得恰当，而且它真的从另一领域的情趣中受到启迪的话，那么逐渐地，往往也是迅速地，原先不适当的“不肯放手”就会慢慢放松，恢复和补救的过程就会开始。
因此，对于公众人物而言，培养业余爱好和新的兴趣才是上策。
但这并非一日之功，也不是单凭意志力就能做到的事情。
精神情趣的培养是一个长期的过程。
要想在需要的时候可随手摘取充满生机的果实，种子就必须精挑细选，必须播种在肥沃的土壤里，还必须辛勤地护理。
要想真正快乐，真正安全，一个人至少应有两三种业余爱好，而且必须是实际可行的。
到了晚年才开始说：“我会培养对这或对那的兴趣”，这是没有用的。
这种愿望只能加剧精神紧张。
一个人可能会获得大量与其日常工作无关的知识，却不能从中得到任何益处或宽慰。
做你喜欢做的事没有用，你要喜欢你做的事。
泛而言之，人可以分为三类：极其劳累的人，极其操心的人，极其无聊的人。
对于卖了一周力气、流了一周汗水的体力劳动者来说，让他们在星期六下午踢足球或打垒球是不合适的。
同样，对于工作了六天、一直为公务操心的政界人士、专业人员或商人来说，在周未再让他们为鸡毛蒜皮的琐事而操心劳累也是无益的。
那些能够支配一切、能够肆意妄为、能够染指一切追求目标的人是“不幸的”。
对于他们而言，多一种新的乐趣、多一种新的刺激只是增加一分厌腻而已。
他们到处奔乱跑，企图靠喧闹和骚动来摆脱无聊对他们的报复，但这么做是徒劳的。
对他们来说，某种形式的纪律约束是最有希望让他们走出困境、走上正道的。
可以这样说，理智的，勤劳的、有用的人可以分为两类：第一类人认为工作是工作，娱乐是娱乐；第二类人认为工作和娱乐是一回事。
英语听力教程（第2册）Unit8听力原文
英语听力教程（第2册）Unit8听力原文Unit 8 听力原文Part ICAn easy way to remember how much we need to exercise for fitness is to keep in mind the letters F, I and T:Frequency --- 3 to 5 days a weekIntensity—till your heart rate reaches your target speedTime -15 to 60 minutes each timeThen you may ask how to work out your target heart speed range. Let's do it together.The upper limit of your target heart speed range is 190 minus your age.The lower limit is 160 minus your age.For someone who is 20 years old, for example, his target heart speed range would be between 140 beats per minute (160-20) and 170 beats per minute (19~20).Once you've got your target speed range, you may start checking whether your exercise gives you the fitness effect.First, warm up with five minutes for stretch exercises. Then start your energetic exercise (e.g. jogging). About 10 minutes after starting energetic exercise, stop and check your pulse rate (whichis the same as your heart rate). Finally, count your pulse beats forl5 seconds and multiply by four.Remember to take your pulse rate as soon as you stop. If you wait even 30 seconds, the rate will have begun to slow and will not be accurate.You are getting the fitness effect if your pulse rate is in yourtarget heart speed range.Part II The digestive system and diarrheaAEvery now and again, a stressful situation may arise the course of our school, home or community life. Often, the situation involves disagreements between people.Sometimes, the situation involves work difficulties—not knowing how to solve a problem or having to make a difficult decision. At other times, it involves money—not having enough to spend or disagreement over what to spend on.That is why relationship problems, work-related problems and money problems are three well-known situations that cause stress. So knowing how to handle people, learning how to solve problems or make decisions, and living within our income all help to control stress.Here are four ways to help you control stress from situations.Clue #1: Be kind, loving and polite to your parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters. Make time to talk, play and relax together.Clue #2: Treat others the way you would like them to treat you. Smile, chat, laugh and do things together. Learn to cooperate, share and make sacrifices for others.Clue #3: Do not keep your worries to yourself. Talk them over with someone you respect. Two heads are better than one.Clue #4: Think of the good and bad points of each choice. Be guided by facts and not your feelings. Choose together with the people who will be affected by the results. In this way, they will see how the choice is made and be more willing to bear with the bad points.CThere are many explanations of why people catch colds. Some say colds are caused by the environment. Others say colds can result from smoking too much, lack of exercise, not enough rest, poor diet, or working too hard. But new studies suggest that people who feel extreme tension for a long period of time also may be at a higher risk of developing a cold. The researchers notethat stress is not the cause of all colds. But studies show that people who suffer from the stress caused by serious personal problems are more likely to get sick than those who do not.Researchers have spent years trying to find out why some people have colds more often than others. An earlier study directed in 1991 showed that emotional stress can lead to colds. In current studies, researchers at the University of Pittsburgh studied almost 300 people, ages 18 to 55. They were given physical, social and mental and emotional examinations. Then live cold viruses were placed in their noses. During the next five days, they were examined to find out who became infected by the virus and then developed signs of a Cold. Such signs include coughing, sneezing and a blocked nose. Stress lowers resistance, but just how it does is unknown. So in this study, the researchers look for the kinds of stress involved and how they might have affected resistance to colds. The study found that severe stress lasting a month or more increased the risk of a cold. Two causes of stress—losing a job or having difficulties with family members or friends—increase the risk the most.Part I II “So you wanna keep fit, huh?”Exercise keeps you fit and healthy. Exercises should be done three to five times a week. Exercise for at least 15 to 30 minutes each time. However, a good exercise plan should includewarming-up exercises before and cool-down exercises after vigorous activity. Both of them should last five to ten minutes.

Has the doctor said he cannot find anything wrong with you? Perhaps he sent you to a hospital, but all the fancy equipment there show that there is nothing wrong. Then consider this, you might be in a state of subhealth. Subhealth, also called the thirdstate or gray state, is defined as a borderline state between health and disease. According to an investigation by the National Health Organization, over 45 percent of subhealthy people are middle aged or elderly. The percentage is even higher among people who work in management positions as well as students around exam-time, due to their heightened exposure to stress. Subhealth comes under several clinical names, including fatigue syndrome, endocrinopathy, neurasthenia, and climacteric syndrome. Symptoms include a lack of energy, depression, slow reactions, insomnia, agitation, and poor memory. Other symptoms include shortness of breath, sweating and aching in the waist and legs. In addition, cardiovascular diseases such as palpitations and arrhythmia may appear. The key to preventing and recovering from subhealth, according to some medical experts is to form good living habits, alternate work with rest, exercise regularly,and take part in open air activities. As for meals, people are advised to eat less salt and sugar. They should also eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, fish and aquatic products because they are rich in nutritional elements--vitamins and trace elements--that are indispensable to the body. Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause unhealthy changes in the digestive tract. They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in avoiding subhealth.Part V Memory test: How to Keep Your Liver HealthyThe liver does so much for your body that without it, you wouldn’t last longer than 24 hours. Its functions are so vital that if it falls into poor health, the rest of your body falls into poor health.In this video, we’re going to discuss in greater detail how to keep your liver healthy because a happier liver means a happier you. If you like to drink, be sure to do so in moderation. Drink aslittle as possible although one glass of red wine a day is acceptable and can even help your body. However, avoid hard liquors such as scotch, whiskey and vodka, which actually cause the most damage to your liver. Eat liver-healthy foods. Now we will be going to much more detail on healthy liver foods, liver diets and even liver cleanses in later videos, but it’s important that you eat foods rich in antioxidants such as kale, spinach, blueberries, broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage. These foods will help your liver detoxify damaging chemicals that are currently in your body. Drink lots of water. Water is a great natural detoxifier. Water will flush toxins from your body, and give your liver a much needed break. This next suggestion can be tough for many, but by cutting down caffeine-rich stimulants, such as coffee, soda and tea, will also reduce the amount of work your liver has to put into removing toxins in your body as well. Exercise regularly, even if it’s l ightly. Getting out and exercise regularly increases liver activity by causing you to sweat and get your liver to push toxins out as you do. It’s like a jumpstart for your liver. Exercise does much more for you and your body beyond a healthy liver and is always a good idea if you want to stay healthy.。

Set and filmed in India, the film tells the story of Jamal Malik, a young man from the Juhu slums of Mumbai who appears on the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and exceeds people's expectations, thereby arousing the suspicions of cheating. It was widelyacclaimed, being praised for its plot, soundtrack and directing. It was nominated for 10 Academy Awards in 2009, winning eight, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay.A Listen to the first news report broadcasted when Slumdog Millionaire won 10 Academy Award nominations. Note down the key words in the notes column. Then complete the storyline of the movie.Audioscript:One of the strongest contenders for the Best Picture Oscar this year is Slumdog Millionaire.Set in Mumbai, India, it is a story about destiny. Jamal Malik, a young man from the slums, becomes a contestant on the Indian reality show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Based on its American equivalent, the Indian show offers 20 million rupees ($400 000) to the winner.Few expected this independent production directed by filmmaker Danny Boyle to make it to the Oscars. But Slumdog is no longer an underdog. It has won viewers' hearts and gained critical acclaim. With ten Academy Award nominations, it is a serious Oscar contender. (Movie) Host: Jamal Malik, you 're absolutely right!Jamal Malik is not knowledgeable. He just happens to know the answers to the specific questions he's been asked. Each question is somehow related to an event that has defined his life.With their mother dead, Jamal and his brother Salim begin to steal, trade and sleep wherever they can to survive.But the defining moment in Jamal's life is when an orphan girl named Latika tags along with them.Latika is taken by gangsters and Jamal will not rest until he sees her again.Years later, as a young adult, he finds her at a gangster's house. She is locked up, and her only pastime is the Indian TV show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Jamal gets on the show so she can watch him. (Movie) Two of the musketeers are called Athos and Porthos. What was the name of the third musketeer? Danny: I'd like to phone a friend. Host: Here we go. Latika: Hello.Latika answers the phone. When they were kids, she was the third musketeer. Jamal and Salim were Athos and Porthos.Director Danny Boyle's love story is influenced by Bollywood where everything is extreme.Like most Indian films, Slumdog Millionaire offers up all-consuming passion, tear-jerking drama and a happy ending. The film's dynamic music and vivid colors enhance the emotions. Its fairytale quality does not undermine Danny Boyle's gritty look at today's India, a country of extremes itself. (Movie) Danny: Latika.Slumdog Millionaire's exuberance is contagious. We leave the theater love-struck, exhilarated.And, as in Jamal's case, we can't help but root for the Oscar nominee regardless of the odds.Now listen to the second news report broadcasted on the day when Slumdog Millionaire finally earned 8 Oscars. After listening, match the awards with the corresponding names.Audioscript:Slumdog Millionaire was expected to win big. And, it did, earning Oscars for its cinematography, film editing, sound mixing, and bringing two of the golden statuettes to composer A. R. Rahman for his score and an original song.Steven Spielberg announced the top award of the evening."And, the Oscar goes to Slumdog Millionaire, Christian Colson, producer."The man behind the movie, Danny Boyle, was named best director. Slumdog Millionaire was a collaboration between the British filmmaker, an Indian cast and crew and a Hollywood distributor. Backstage, Boyle said joint efforts like this will become more common."You know, there's all sorts of people gonna work there. These things are gonna come together. The world's shrinking a bit in a ... in a wonderful way and it will benefit from it because, in ... in culture, fusion is a wonderful thing."The film is set in the slums of Mumbai and features two professional actors with a cast of unknown youngsters from the Mumbai slums. Young cast members came to Hollywood for the Oscars.The story revolves around a teenager who hopes to win riches on a quiz show. Writer Simon Beaufoy, who won an Oscar for his adapted screenplay, says the story is appropriate in a recession."A film comes out that is ostensibly about being a millionaire, and actually what it's about is, it's a film that says there are more importantthings than money. There's love and faith and your family, and that struck a chord with people, I think, right now."Part III Karen Kain -- a Canadian ballerina The beautiful prima ballerina of the National Ballet of Canada, Karen Kain, was for five years the partner of Rudolph Nureyev and has danced most of the major classical ballet roles all over the world, since her debut in the demanding role of Odile/Odette in Swan Lake at the age of nineteen. She was born in Hamilton, Ontario, not far from Toronto, the home of the National Ballet of Canada. She and her husband now live in Cabbagetown, one of the oldest districts in central Toronto.In this section, you are going to hear an interview during which Karen Kain, a Canadian ballerina, talks about her work and how she first became interested in the ballet. While listening for the first time, add more key words in the left column. After the second listening, answer the questions.Now try this: listen to a more authentic version of the interview and then do the multiple choice.Audioscript: Well, I actually saw Celia Franka dance, and now she founded the National Ballet of Canada. And she was dancing in myhometown -- Giselle, and I was taken for my birthday, and I saw her dance, (I) fell in love with it, and I started taking ballet lessons, and then at one point ... I think it was around ten ... my teacher said that I should audition for the National Ballet School, which is a full-time academic and ballet training facility here in Toronto. It's one of... I think it's the only one in North America. I mean, it's the same set-up as the Paris Opera, the Bolshoi, the Leningrad ... you know, that they have the school affiliated with the Company. And you take all your academic training as well as your dance training. So she told me that I should audition for that, and I did. And when I was eleven years old I went to the ballet school for seven years till I was eighteen, graduated from high school and I joined the National Ballet. Now you were married fairly recently, weren't you? It'll be three years next month, yes. Is touring and so forth hard on married life? I believe your husband's an actor, isn't he? Yes, he is. So you're probably both away quite a lot. We've been very fortunate. We've managed to stay together most of the time. The longest we were separated was when I was on tour with the National Ballet in Europe last spring, and I was gone for six weeks, and he was making a television series and he was in Australia for six weeks. So we have been separated a few times, but most of the time we manage to be together. We've just been very fortunate. Throughout the year ... how much time do you have off away from the dance? Very little. I'm trying to makesure that I get one week in June this year, because I have not had more than two days free since a year ago January. So I've been working very very hard, and I feel that I really need one week free, you know. Tom Boyd: How long can a ballerina go on before she should start thinking of retiring? I hope that I have another ten years at the most to dance. Tom Boyd: What would you do after that? Would you leave the ballet completely or go into teaching, or choreography? I don't think choreography, I don't think I have any talent in ... you know ... I have no desire, no talent. I like to teach, I like to coach young dancers. I don't think I would leave the ballet world entirely, but I may try something else. You never know. I'm interested in other things and I have done some sorts of musical comedy work, and I've enjoyed it very much -- just to expand myself a little and to look around. And this Christmas again I'll be playing Cinderella in an English pantomime -- which is great fun for me. I really have fun and it's not serious dancing, you know, and I get to speak and act and everything. So I don't know. I would also like to have a family, so I have lots of things that I may do.Part IV More about the topic:Beethoven VBeethoven was a German composer and pianist. A crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in Westernart music, he remains one of the most famous and influential of all composers. His best known compositions include 9 symphnies, 5 concertos for piano, 32 piano sonatas, and 16 string quartets. The Symphony No. 5 in C minor was written in 1804 - 1808. It is one of the most frequently played symphonies.Listen to the recording. Learn to appreciate Beethoven's Fifth Symphony with the speakers. While listening, complete the following outline.Audioscript:"" The most famous four-note sequence in music, instantly recognizable to us today as Beethoven's Fifth and full of associations. Fate knocking at the door. "V" for victory. But how must it have sounded to that original audience? Beethoven presented it as pure music. No clue to its significance or meaning. Well, Beethoven, as a personality, was so tricky and so uncouth in so many ways, and had such a difficult, troubled childhood, that the adult that gave us some of these pieces was a man so often at odds with the world around him. Born in poverty in the German town of Bonn, he was bullied as a child by his alcoholic father and in his 20s realized he was going deaf, surely the crudest of tragedies for a musician. But Beethoven was a man with a will of iron, and, in the Fifth, he harnesses the power of the orchestra to an insistentpropulsive rhythm, forcing the symphony to articulate the profoundest personal drama. Host: The story of a soul struggling against implacable fate and emerging incandescently victorious. One of the great contrasts available to a composer are the contrasts of darkness and lightness. And in his Fifth Symphony, builds up from hesitant darkness into the radiant blaze of optimism, confidence, whatever. Now he does this through the simplest of means. At the end of the third movement, which is the rather shadowy, dark scherzo, his plan is to burst us into the light without stopping. Now he does this by making the orchestra play as quietly as it can, all the strings just plucking very, very quietly. Then comes the heartbeat of the drum, very, very quiet and distant and the strings just moving up and down, uncertain about which way they're going to go. And then suddenly, very quickly, the whole orchestra comes in, and, without stopping, we burst into the final movement. This is in the major key. Lights full on, after lights hardly on at all. The symphony is a masterpiece of storytelling without words. When the French Revolution erupted, Beethoven was a teenager, struggling to support his family after the death of their mother, and the concept of individual liberty became a lifelong issue. And we, the listeners, are compelled to share his battle against fate. Although Beethoven wanted to write something that was comprehensible at first hearing, he wasn't writing simply to give pleasure. He wanted it to be a potentially life-changing experience,music that would resonate in the mind long after the last note had sounded.Part V Do you know ...?What is a musical? According to one definition, it is a stage, television or film production utilizing popular-style songs and dialogue to either tell a story and/or showcase the talents of varied performers. Musicals are not just written -- they are collaborative creations that are put together piece by piece. Then what is the Broadway musical? When was it born?A Spot dictation. Listen to a passage about the birth of the Broadway musical. Fill in the blanks with the words you hear. Audioscript:Most scholars believe that The Black Crook in 1866 marked the beginning of the musical comedy, integrating music, dance and comedy, with an emphasis on beautiful women and spectacular scenery. But it was during World War One and after, that the musical developed as a uniquely American idiom. Song-and-dance man George M. Cohan exploited Americans' sense of patriotism, moving away from European influences. In the 1920s. songwriters who include Jerome Kern, George and Ira Gershwin, Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, broughtthe musical to maturity with their meticulous crafting of music and lyrics to create the American popular song.The modern musical was born in 1943 with Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma, which revolutionized the way dance, music and dialogue were used to develop the plot and characters. Other songwriters of the 1940s, 50s and 60s capitalized on that winning formula to write so many hit musicals, that that era is now referred to as "Broadway's Golden Age." Since then, American musicals have been translated and produced on stages all over the world. The music has become a mainstay among vocalists and jazz musicians, making clear the expression that the music of Broadway is truly "America's classic music."Foreigners call Americans Yankees. Southerners say that Yankees are Northerners. Northerners say that Yankees are from the New England states. People in New England say it is the Vermonters who are Yankees. Vermonters reply that a Yankee is just someone who eats pie for breakfast. It seems that the origin of this term defies detection.B1 Listen to the passage. Focus on what the word "Yankee" refers to at different times. Supply the missing information. B2 Now listen to the passage again. Complete the summary.Our question this week asks about the song Yankee Doodle. To explain, we must go back more than 200 years. The American colonies had not yet won independence from England. The British used the word "Yankee" to describe colonists in the northeast part of America. That area was known as New England. After the War for Independence, the British used the word to mean all Americans. And during both World Wars American soldiers were known as Yankees or just Yanks.That was the song Yankee Doodle. History experts do not know exactly when it was written. Some research shows the date may have been during the 1750s. Many stories say a British army doctor wrote the song when England was fighting the French and the Indians in North America. There is little confirmation of these stories. We do know, however, that Yankee Doodle was sung by the British to make the colonial people of North America look foolish. And we know the song became popular among the colonists themselves. Many knew at least some of the words.The British continued to use the song to make Yankees look foolish until the early days of the War for Independence in the 1770s. Stories say, British soldiers marching out of the city of Boston stepped in time to the music of Yankee Doodle. Those same soldierswere defeated by colonial troops at the town of Concord singing the same song. Since then, Yankee Doodle has been a song that represents the United States.Part VII Watch and enjoyMagic is a performing art that entertains audiences by staging tricks or creating illusions of seemingly impossible or supernatural feats using natural means. These feats are called magic tricks, effects, or illusions. A professional who performs such illusions is called a magician or an illusionist. Watch the video clip from the movie Illusionist. After watching, answer the following questions. Videoscript:Announcer：Life and death, space and time, fate and chance. These are the forces of the universe. Tonight, ladies and gentleman, I present to you a man who has unlocked these mysteries. From the furthest corners of the world where the dark arts still hold sway, he returns to us to demonstrate how nature's laws maybe bent. I give you ... Eisenheim.Eisenheim：Might I borrow a handkerchief from someone? You, Madam. Thank you. Ah, be patient. Now, if you please, Iwould like to continue with an examination of time. From themoment we enter this life we are in the flow of it. We measure it and we mark it but we cannot defy it. We cannot even speed it up or slow it down. Or can we? Have we not eachexperienced a sensation that a beautiful moment seemed topass too quickly? And wished that we could make it linger? Or felt time slow on a dull day and wished that we could speedthings up a bit? I assure you, they're quite real. Audience: Is it real?Eisenheim：And you, Madam, where is your handkerchief?Audience: Bravo! Very good.。

Unit8II. Listening SkillsSafety for childrenTo keep our children safe from those dangerous criminals, these tips might be helpful. First, children should be encouraged always to ask permission from their caregiver before they go anywhere .They should not only tell the care giver where they will be at all times, but also who will be looking after them. Also, children should never walk or ride their bikes alone. Instead, they should travel in groups whenever possible. more importantly, children should be taught to stay away from strangers, though they may offer to show them a puppy or give them candy. Children should be taught to say “no”and run, scream, or fight if necessary. Moreover, children should be told that no problem is too big or too small to ask grown-ups. In fact, it is never too late to ask for help, and to keep asking until they get the help they need. Last but not least, we should realize that many child-attack cases involve a family member or family friend, for example, a stepfather, sister’s boyfriend, babysitter, neighbor, and so on.III.

After all, you don't want someone else to ruin y our good credit rating and perhaps keep you from getting the loan you want t o get.The first thing you want to do is to watch how much information you give out on the Internet. For example, never put your credit card number into an email. If you do make purchases online, you need to be careful. One way to be extr a careful is to only use sites that offer a high level of e ncryption.Another way to be extra careful is to only use one credit card for all of your Internet purc hases. Make sure that credit card has a low limit.Another thing you have to do to help you avoid ID theft is to destroy all your outgoing mail completely. Some thieves will pick up garbage, search through it,and pull out the credit card offers that you threw away because they were ju nk mail. Remember that a lot of your information is already there. All a thief h as to do is forge your signature and mail the form back with a note that says you've changed your mailing address (to their address).The third way to avoid identity theft is to make sure that your mailbox is safe. Have a slot in your front door for the mail to fall through. Even though that i s not completely safe, it is still much safer than the post box outside your fro nt door.(1) give out (2) number (3) online (4) sites (5) credit card (6) low (7) outgoing (8) thieves (9) offers (10) mailbox (11)front doorIV. Speaking OutModel 1 Bye-bye, bully!Se-Jin: john, do you mind if I ask you something?John: No, what is it?Se-Jin: you seem nervous. Is that big guy still bullying you?John: Yeah. Today he wanted me to give him some money. He even pushed me when I said no.Se-Jin: That’s terrible! You have to talk to a teacher about this.John: I thought about that, but I’m afraid that everyone will think I’m a coward.Se-Jin: Your safety is more important than what other people think.John; But telling a teacher could make things worse. The big guy warned me not to .Se-Jin: Of course he did! He doesn’t want to get into trouble. Look, if you’re still worried, tell the teacher not to mention your name when she talks to him.John: Good idea. But I think I can deal with him on my own.Model 2 My house has been robbed!Operator: Colchester Police Station. Can I help you?Jane: I hope so. My house has been robbed.Operator: Where do you live?Jane: 2B Southbank Road.Operator: When did you discover the burglary?Jane: When I got home from work. About five minutes ago.Operator: Was anything stolen?Jane: Yes. All my jewelry’s gone, and my computer too. And they wrote dirty words all over my walls.Operator: How did they get in ?Jane: They forced the back door.Operator: An officer will be round in about half an hour. Please don't touch anything.Model 3 We should create harsher sentences for bootleggers.Jane: It’s about time that the government got tough with bootleggers. Their fake liquors have already killed several people.Peter: Yeah, that’s too high a price to pay. It’s almost a rip-off.The bootleggers use industrial alcohol to cut costs and increase profits.Jane: Perhaps we should cut taxes on liquor. With lower taxes, bootlegging will decrease.Peter: But that can create a new problem. That’s not in agreement with the WTO rules.Jane: I think through negotiation with other nations, perhaps we can cut taxes under the WTO framework.(['freimwə:k] n. 框架，骨架；结构，构架)Peter: That may be tough. Perhaps a better solution is to create harsher sentences for bootleggers.Jane: I agree. Our country needs a special team to deal with this problem. Then we can crack down on bootlegging.V. Let’s TalkThe oldest bank robberTexas police say they have arrested a 91-yeard-old man,J.L. Hunter Rountree, who is accused of robbing a bank, making him probably the oldest bank robber in U.S. history.Police said Rountree, who was not armed, asked a teller to put money into a large envelope with the word “robbery” written on it. A witness took down on the license number of his car, and he was arrested on a highway about 15 miles outside the city.If he is proved guilty, Rountree will face from 10 to 20 years in prison. (['prizən] n. 监狱；监禁；拘留所vt. 监禁，关押)He told police he needed the money, and he had a complaint against banks.Robert left a prison in Florida, where he was the oldest prisone r in the state([steɪt] n. 国家；州；情形adj. 国家的；州的；正式的vt. 规定；声明；陈述), about a year ago. Before that, he served a three-year sentence for a bank robbery in Florida in 1999.In a prison interview with a journalist, Robert said he had been a businessman in Texas but had fallen on hard times. He said he robbed his first bank when he was about 80 because he wanted to revenge against banks.“A bank that I’d done business with had forced me into bankruptcy. I have never liked banks since,”he told the journalist.”I decided I would get even. And I have.”7 4 5 6 8 3 2 1VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Describing a RobberyDetective: Okay, Ms. Brown, just calm down. Could you start from the beginning and tell me what happened?Janet:Well, let’s see. I was sitting at the table near the window when two men rushed in and told everyone to freeze. Detective: Can you describe the man？Janet: One was tall and with a long coat on. The other was shorter in a red jacket.Detective: After they burst in what did they do?Janet: Well. The tall one pointed his gun at the clerk and told him to open the cash register. The short one was watchingthe rest of us. The clerk hesitated a minute and just thenthe restaurant manger came out of his office. Thatsurprised the thieves.Detective: Yeah, let’s see…The manger’s name is Mr. Jackson. I guess he had the key to the safe?Janet: Yeah! That’s right! Because the thieves told him to open the safe. The short one went with him. As the mangerturned to go back to the office, he told the clerk tocooperate with him.Detective: Did the boss open up the safe?Janet: Yeah, he went back into the office and opened it. He seemed pretty calm, not like the customers. I think thatguy deserves a medal or something.Sam: You all do. Living through a robbery is a tough experience.1. everyone freeze2. tall long coat shorter red jacket3. his gun the clerk open the rest of the people4. key safe5. calm customers a medalTask 2: Task 2: Who’s the murderer?A passing police car heard loud screams and responded immedia tely. When the police arrived at the scene, hey found Pete’s dead bo dy in his backyard, with man knife wounds and blood everywhere. T he officer immediately went to question the three neighbors that had been outside in the past thirty minutes.Blake Smith had just finished painting his porch when the officer came. A young, polite man, Blake wiped his hands on his clean jea ns before shaking hands, and said,”I’ve been outside all morning .Painting the porch ceiling took a long time .Pete lives tow doors away . I really didn’t see or hear anything,” he added apologetically.Nelson Brown had been in his garden, right next door to the victim’s yard. He sai d,” I was in and out of the house. Weeding.” His hands were dirty. Then he added,” Inside, I was repairing a chair, It all mu st have happened when I was indoors. Sorry.”Kenny Green’s story seemed less believable.” I was on a ladder, washing my windows,” the middle-aged man admitted. The officer c ould see that Kenny’s yard overlooked the victim’s. But Kenny claim ed,” I never looked over into Pete’s yard, nor did I hear anything.”Now the officer believed that one of the guys was lying. Who wa s this man?Q:1. What did the police when they arrived at the scene?2. What did Blake Smith do before shaking hands with the polic e?3. According to Nelson Brown , which of the following did he d o?4. Which of the following was NOT true of Kenny Green according to the passage?5. Who did the police officer believe to be lying and why?1. A2.D3.C4.D5.BTask 3: The theft of personal informationThe list of institutions where personal information was reported to have been stolen or lost this year is long, i ncluding many large banks, hospitals, universities and automobile stores. These places contain large numbers of precious records coveted by ID thieves(n. 小偷). Even the Department of Justice is reported to have lost pers onal records when a laptop was stolen!The most common causes of these incidents are report ed to be hacking and lost records. Also, the theft of p ersonal records can be an inside job, where employees who have access to computer systems are tempted to steal large volumes of customer personal data records. This temptation can be real, because stolen personal data can sell anywhere from $10 to $60 per record. Identity theft could be happening to you right now and you wouldn't know it until the damage was done. Eve n more disturbing is that newborns and the elderly are often the favorite victims of identity thieves, because t he abuse of their personal information can go on longe r before it is found out.Today, the theft of personal records is more dangerous than the loss of personal information through the care less discarding of credit card receipts or mail.1.F2.T3.T4.F5.FTask 3:Protecting Intellectual Property RightsRichard:I understand why publishing houses have called for a crack down on illegal copies ofbooks. It’s a big loss for them if everyone buys pirated booksinstead of paying the fullprice.Nancy: I agree. If the publishers don’t take action against illegal publications, they and the authors of the books lose money.Then the publishers have to save money by lowering thequality of their books.Richard: That’s why intellectual property rights have to be protected. It will do do good not onlyfor the publishers, but to consumers as well.Nancy: You said it. I’m all for protecting intellectual property rights. ButI also think books aregetting more expensive every day, and some students have nochoice but yo buy cheap books.Richard: I beg to disagree. There is no excuse for college kids to buy mobile phones and then saythey can’t afford books.Nancy: But to really solve the piracy problem, we need cheaper books as well as harsher punishments.。

1.Exercise 1: Listen to the passage and decide whether the following statements are true or false, write T for true, F for false.
Britain Marks 10 Years of Princess Diana's Death
The 10th anniversary of Princess Diana's death has resurrected old controversies about the "People's Princess." Since her death in a car crash in Paris in 1997, Diana's legacy has been hotly debated. Some see a troubled woman who courted media attention. Others recall a warm, generous person who focused her energy on charitable causes and dared to hug AIDS victims. Australian feminist Germaine Greer described Diana as "moron" this month, but Prime Minister Gordon Brown hailed her as "extraordinary woman" who "still has the remarkable ability to move and inspire."
"We are making what is called proactive grants. So in a small number of very specific areas such as palliative care, that's care for the dying in Africa, refugees and asylum seekers in the U.K. And other areas such as cluster munitions, we are working towards an international ban on cluster munitions. In these specific areas, we are actually identifying organizations with whom we have worked in the past in order to carry forward those very specific goals."

Similarly she was photographed walking through minefields at a time that this was considered hugely controversial and yet now landmines have been stigmatized. So in the intervening years of course people's attitudes change, but in many ways they change for the better."

Despite the debate, there is no doubt that Diana spent much of her time doing humanitarian work. She was involved in such organizations as the Great Ormond Street Hospital for sick children in London, the National Aids Trust and the Leprosy Mission. The Diana Princess of Wales Memorial Fund was established in September 1997 to continue the Princess's humanitarian work in the United Kingdom and overseas. The fund was established with the proceeds from sales of the recording of Elton John's performance of "Candle in the Wind", which was played at Diana's funeral. Samantha Rennie is a spokesperson for the fund. She said Diana used her celebrity status to draw attention to unpopular causes.
