After breakfast I asked Granny, "What kind of soup are you making today?""Vegetable beef," she answered. "And you can help me to prepare."So we got the vegetables from the refrigerator: onions, carrots, potatoes and so on.

At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D).Passage OneQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the passage you have just heard.Script:Passage OneMany people have concerns about taking their cars on long trips, especially if their cars are getting on in years or mileage. The truth is, long trips are actually easier on your car than day-to-day driving, but a breakdown far from home can really destroy the fun. A few simple checks will help you to avoid many common problems.Two to four weeks before you go, get any major repairs done. If your car needs major repair or maintenance, do it at least one month before you go. That will allow plenty of time for any problems related to the repair to appear.Before you pack, give your car a good wash. Clean cars always seem to run better. Besides, who wants to travel in a dirty car? Make sure your tires are inflated to the proper pressure. Low pressure can be a problem. Follow the instructions for checking tire pressure in your owner's manual. You should also check the spare tire. Make sure it is fully inflated and that other important spare parts are in the trunk.Before you go, open your suitcases and take one last look. Ask yourself, do you really need all that stuff? If there's anything you can do without, leave it home. If you're carrying lots of heavy objects, position them forward in the trunk and divide the weight evenly side to side. Cars don't have unlimited carrying capacity, so don't overload.There is no guarantee that unexpected things cannot happen. But if you've followed these guidelines, you've avoided a lot of potential problems. Relax and enjoy your trip!6.People have concerns about driving on long trips ____ .A) if their cars are newly boughtB) if they have never driven on long trips beforeC) if their cars are quite oldD) if they haven't bought insurance for their carsScript: People have concerns about driving on long trips ____ .正确答案： C 学生答案：A得分：0 分7.When does one have to repair his car if it needs major repair?A) One to two weeks before one goes.B) Two to four weeks before one goes.C) At least one month before one goes.D) At least two months before one goes.Script: When does one have to repair his car if it needs major repair? 正确答案： C学生答案：C得分： 2 分8.Before you pack, what should you check the tires for?A) Hardness.B) Newness.C) Leaks.D) Pressure.Script: Before you pack, what should you check the tires for? 正确答案： D学生答案：D得分： 2 分9.How should you position the heavy objects in the trunk?A) Make them take as little space as possible.B) Divide the weight evenly.C) Separate them from side to side.D) Group them according to their types.Script: How should you position the heavy objects in the trunk? 正确答案： B学生答案：D得分：0 分10.If one has followed all these guidelines, ____ .A) a lot of problems will be prevented from happeningB) there will be no problem on the tripC) a lot of money has to be paidD) many useful things have to be left at homeScript: If one has followed all these guidelines, ____ .正确答案： A 学生答案：A得分： 2 分Passage Two Questions 11 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Script:Before you fly to China, you should know that the national airline is Air China. As is true of any flight, travelers should confirm their return flight reservations; otherwise they would have problems.Also, be prepared for a long flight. A nonstop from New York to Beijing lasts 14 hours while a flight to Shanghai lasts up to 18 hours.There are four airport hubs within China: Beijing, Guangzhou BaiyunInternational, Shanghai Hongqiao and Shanghai Pudong. Each airport includes taxis,public and shuttle buses, duty free shops, banks, post offices, business and Internet facilities and bars and restaurants. Important to note is the departure tax, which is paid in Chinese currency, or RMB, only.Once you are in China, you can take many kinds of transportation like rail, sea and automobile. Railways are the major meansof transportation throughout China. The trains are inexpensive, safe and well maintained operating between major cities. There are three types of trains, the Express option being the best of the three. There are four varieties of fare: hard seat, soft seat, hard sleeper and soft sleeper. Children under 3 feet tall travel free and those under 4 feet pay a quarter of the fare. Train travel is often a comfortable experience although it takes much time, due to the distance between major cities. National plane travel saves your time. Flights from Shanghai to Beijing, Hong Kong to Shanghai and Guangzhou to Shanghai are about 2 hours; however, the roundtrip travel costs 350 dollars. Although express train travel between these cities ranges from 12 to 18 hours, the prices are much lower, between 15 to 30 dollars.11.It takes ____ to travel from New York to Shanghai by air.A) 14 hoursB) 18 hoursC) 24 hoursD) 40 hoursScript: It takes ____ to travel from New York to Shanghai by air.正确答案： B 学生答案：B得分： 2 分12.Which one is NOT an airport hub within China?A) Beijing.B) Shanghai HongqiaoC) Shenzhen.D) Shanghai Pudong.Script: Which one is NOT an airport hub within China? 正确答案： C 学生答案： C得分： 2 分13.____ types of fare are available if one travels in China by train.A) ThreeB) FourC) FiveD) SixScript: ___ types of fare are available if one travels in China by train.正确答案： B 学生答案：C得分：0 分14.How much does a child between 3 and 4 feet tall pay for a train trip?A) Nothing.B) A quarter of the fare.C) A third of the fare.D) Half of the fare.Script: How much does a child between 3 and 4 feet tall pay for a train trip? 正确答案： B 学生答案： B得分： 2 分15.How much does a round trip from Hong Kong to Shanghai cost?A) About 200 dollars.B) About 250 dollars.C) About 300 dollars.D) About 350 dollars.Script: How much does a round trip from Hong Kong to Shanghai cost? 正确答案： D 学生答案： D得分： 2 分Part II Oral Tasks ( 3 minutes )Section ADirections: In this section, you will hear several conversations.

I will not apply for a scholarship because it is too hard to get it. I think I’ll be able to support myself by working part-time. In my view, money is veryimportant though it is not everything.So most probably I’ll study business. I hope I can make it big af ter graduation.2. I’m Jill. I’m going to join a sorority. I want to make more friends of the same sex. I think that women should be united and should always help each other. I’m going to do volunteer work in my spare time to help those elderly ladies in the community with their errands. I’m not going to a large university since I can’t afford it.3. I’m Max and this is Sara. We love each other. We’re not going to live in student housing. We plan to live in a medium-size apartment not far away from the u niversity. We’re going to study together and work part-time.Audio Track 3-5-7I’m Mary and I’m twenty. I’m studying Lifelong Education at the University of Tokyo. I think it’s important for everyone to keep learning all their lives. That’s why I chose t o major in Lifelong Education. Personally, I’m planning to further my education in an American university after graduation. So right now, I’m taking an English class. I want to improve my English. I’m working part-time at a video store because I need to save money for my studies abroad.I have a boyfriend and he wants to go and study in the United States too. We have similar interests and personalities. I’m going to get married and live in a house by the ocean. Sooner or later, I’ll have my own children. I will most probably stay at home to be a full-time mother before my children are sixteen years old. To witness their growth would be the most valuable thing in my life.Audio Track 3-5-8/Audio Track 3-5-9New graduates talk about the futureAfter the City College graduation ceremony yesterday, we talked to three students about their plans and their dreams.Here is what Jameela Brown had to say about her future:I worked so hard for four years. I need a break now! I majored in biology and chemistry, and I hada summer job in a day care center. I’m going to take a year off before I start medical school. My plan is to travel and do volunteer work in West Africa. I’ll be a doctor someday but I’m not sure what kind of doctor I’ll be.Jennie Min talked about her plans:I studied business, and it was easy for me to find a job. Next month I’ll move to New York to start work at Giant Corporation. But I don’t really want to spend my whole life working for a company.I hope I can start my own business. Maybe something with food. I love cooking! In college, I cooked dinner for my roommates every night.Shane Peterson told us about his big dream:Wow! Four years really went fast. I can’t believe it’s graduation day! My major was computer science, but I spent all my free time playing music. I played guitar in two different bands. I also play electronic music, using computers. I have job interviews with three software companies nextweek. I’m not worried about getting a job, but I really want to play music, too. That’s my biggest dream.Audio Track 3-5-10/Audio Track 3-5-11Interviewer: We now have a winner! Stephanie Lee from Vancouver, Canada answered our questions and won the top prize: She will be our youth travel reporter in Europe! She’s going to travel for three months and write about her experiences for our website. Do you have any international travel experience?Stephanie: Yes, I do. Two years ago, I spent the summer in Hong Kong, China. I stayed with my grandmother and worked in the family business. I also visited Africa last year.Interviewer: What do your travel experiences tell us about you?Stephanie: I stayed in Hong Kong for about two months. I think that shows I can stay away from home for a long time. I don’t get homesick at all. In Africa, I went to Tanzania. The highlight was climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. It’s the highest mountain in Africa. The climb was very hard. Two people turned back before they reached the top. I made it all the way! Once I start something, I never give up.Interviewer: This jo b gives you a digital camera and pays your travel expenses. It doesn’t pay a salary. How will you get your spending money?Stephanie: I had a part-time job in a restaurant. I had worked there for two years. Fortunately, I saved a lot of money, so I won’t have to worry about money for my trip to Europe. Interviewer: Why should we choose you?Stephanie: Because I love to travel! I’m a hard worker and will have no trouble filing reports on time — and I have a lot of energy!Speaking & CommunicationAudio Track 3-5-121. I’m gonna apply to three colleges.2.

Open it!Takeshi: Here goes … (opens letter)Sun-hee: Well?Mike: Were you accepted?Takeshi: I’m g oing to grad school!Audio Track 3-5-17Takeshi got a letter from the Columbia Graduate School. While Sun-hee and Mike were waiting for him to come home, they talked about Takeshi’s plans for grad school. Takeshi had applied to several graduate programs, but two schools had already rejected him! Mike said that Takeshi was going to hit the road if he didn’t get accepted. When Takeshi got home, he explained that if he didn’t get accepted he was going to travel for a while and then he would apply to graduate school again. He also said that if he was accepted, he was going to become a film director. Takeshi finally opened the letter — and it was good news! Takeshi was going to go to grad school at Columbia!。

Unit l, Lesson ATrack 3-1-OL-7 Track 3-1-OL-8Travel TodayGoing solo is the way to go!By D. ToorHow do you usually travel? Do you go with a close friend or a group of friends? Do you join a tour group? Do you travel with your family? Have you ever imagined "going solo"? In the mid 1990s, it was estimated that 9 million Americans were planning a summer vacation alone. Since then, the number of solo travelers has increased.You may think that traveling alone would be scary or boring. Well, according to people who do it, that's not exactly true. Solo travelers often have positive experiences: they make new friends, get to know themselves better, and can make their own schedules.There are many different things you can do on a vacation alone. Some solo travelers use the time to learn or practice a sport such as golf, mountain climbing, or scuba diving. Others go and stay on a ranch and learn how to ride a horse. You can pretend to be a cowboy or a cowgirl for a day!You may not believe this, but some travelers like to study on their vacation. They even go to "vacation college" at a university or join a research team as a volunteer worker. It's hard but satisfying work. You can "play scientist" for a week or two while you help someone with their project.For solo travelers of different ages and genders, there are many travel options, There are tours for women only and for people over the age of 60. And, of course, there are trips for singles who are looking for romance. One company offers trips that focus on fine dining----there is time for sightseeing during the day and for sharing a delicious meal with new friends at night.The next time you take a trip somewhere, why don't you consider going solo?Bon voyage!Global ViewpointsCity Livingwe come!Track 3-1-OL-9Sun-hee, Claudia, and Tara are preparing to go to Mexico for a vacation. While Sun-hee is talking to Mike on the phone, Claudia and Tara have some trouble preparing for the trip. First, Tara can’t find her bag and then Claudia doesn’t know where her ticket is. But Sun-hee is tatally relaxed because she has already finished getting ready. Sun-hee tells Mike about all the errands she had to do earlier that day. She had to confirm her flight, get travel’s checks, change her voice-mail message, and pay the bills. Finally, Tara and Claudia are ready to go and Sun-hee checks to be sure they have everything. However, after they leave, Sun-hee soon comes running back in. Why? She forgot to take her ticket and passport!Unit 4, Lesson ATrack 3-4-OL-5 Track 3-4-OL-6Get in the habitWe all know that good habits bring in good health. But we don’t realize how much difference they can make. In the 1970s, scientists at the University of California, LA interviews seven thousandpeople about their health habits. Then they follow these people to see how long they lived. The scientist discovered that seven habits were closely linked with a longer life. These habits are：1. Eating breakfast everyday. 2. Avoiding snacks between meals.3. Keeping an ideal weight, not too heavy or too thin.4. Exercising regularly. 5. Sleeping 7 to 8 hours per night, not more or less.6. Not smoking.7. Drink two or fewer alcoholic drinks per day. The researchers found that these habits had a powerful effect on health. People in the study who had three or fewer of these habits lived another 21.6 years. People who had six or seven could expect to live another 33 years. People age 55 to 64 with all seven good habits were as healthy as younger people age 25 to 34 who practiced only one or two of the habits. But how do you change your habits? A slow approach is the best way. Make one small change every week and be patient, it takes about 21 days to form a new habit.Track 3-4-OL-7 Track 3-4-OL-8Surprising syndromes of modem lifeR4argaret's friend is taking a new job in a faraway city. She wants to hold a farewell dinner party at her home. But she can't. Margaret suffers from CHAOS (Can't Have Anyone Over Syndrome). Her apartment is messy and she's embarrassed by it. "I've never been a tidy person," she says. "My best friend gave me some good advice. He told me to get a maid." Today it's so easy to get information--and lots of it. We receive telephone calls all day long. People expect a quick response to their faxes, text messages, and e-mail messages. I;or some people, it's too much. They have information fatigue syndrome. There is so much information, they become paralyzed and can't think clearly "I can't sleep at night because I worry," says Bahman, a college senior. "It's terrible." Hurry sickness is a straightforward name for another syndrome of modern life. "I'm always rushing. Get headaches a lot. Taking aspirin seems to help," says Mari, a mother of two and a part-time company employee. Do you engage in "deskfast" (eating breakfast at your desk at work) more than once a week? Then you, too, may suffer from hurry sickness! We've all complained about having too much work to do. Well, now about not having enough work? Underload syndrome is caused by having little or nothing to do at the office. You have to pretend that you're working. Steven works as a project manager. "I can finish my work in about four hours, but I'm afraid to say anything about it. I don't want to be assigned too much work!" In severe cases, people with this syndrome can get very bored and even became depressed. Chances are you're experienced phone neck before. Another name for it would be "pain in the neck," because that's what people with this condition experience. Holding the phone between your neck and your ear for a long time causes phone neck. A good long message is the suggested treatment for this syndrome.Unit 4, Lesson BGlobal ViewpointsTrack 3-5-OL-9Takeshi get a letter from the Columbia Graduate School. While Sun-hee and Mike wait him to come home, they talk about Takeshi’s plans for grad school. Takeshi applied to several graduate programs, but two schools have already rejected him! Mike says Takeshi is going to hit the road if he doesn’t get accepted. When Takeshi gets home, he explains that if he doesn’t get accepted, he’s going to travel for a while and then he’ll apply to graduate school again. He also says that if he is accepted, he’s going to become a film director. Takeshi finally opens the letter—and it’s goodnews! Takeshi is going to go to grad school at Colunbia!Unit 6, Lesson ATrack 3-6-OL-7 Track 3-6-OL-8How do you feel about cell phones?It can't be denied: there has been a cell phone boom in the last decade. Everywhere you go, people seem to be talking on the telephone. How do people feel about cell phones? Our on-the-street survey found some interesting answers.Sixty-nine percent of the people we asked think cell phones are convenient and save time. Nineteen percent use cell phones only when they have to. A small percentage----only three percent----think cell phones are unnecessary. Another three percent say they are addicted to their cell phones! There have been some problems associated with cell phones. Some cities have passed laws affecting ell phone use. For example, in some places, it is now illegal to drive and use your cell phone at the same time. A survey asked people about cell phones and laws. Here is how they answered.There should be laws about cell phone usage in classrooms, theaters, and restaurants. 57%while driving. 45%on public transportation. 34%One thing is sure about cell phones: everyone has an opinion about how and when they should be used! Listen to w hat these four people had to say:Phil: I'm Phil, I love talking on the phone. I keep my phone next to my bed. I even take it with me into the bathroom! My friends say that I am "cell phone crazy."Sherry: I'm Sherry, I live in the country. I\4y nearest neighbor is 25 miles away. My cell phone makes me feel safe. I can call someone in an emergency.Eric: I'm Eric, I think cell phones are unnecessary. Why do people use them so often, especially in public places? I think it's a form of noise pollution!Carmen: I'm Carmen, I'm very busy. Sometimes I have to cancel an appointment at the last minute.I use my cell phone to do that. It's good for business.Unit 6, Lesson BTrack 3-6-OL-9Roberto and Mike are in a restaurant. A woman is talking loudly on the cell phone. Roberto says,”I can’t stand cell phones.” Mike says he avoids taking calls in public unless it’s very important. But then Mike’s father calls to give Mike his new cell phone number. While they are talking, Mike’s mother calls on the other line. She starts to ask Mike to take a message for his dad, but Mike can’t stand taking messages, so he connects his mother and father. At that point, the same woman who was talking so loud on her phone earlier says to Mike,” Do you mind?” then she turns to her friend and says the same thing Roberto said,” I can’t stand cell phones—especially in public places.”。

I have to present it to the class tomorrow.Mom: Do you know the material?Mandy: I think so.Mom: OK, let’s practice. I’ll ask you some question s.Mandy: OK.Mom: All right then, just why is Sadako Ogata well known?Mandy: She worked for the United Nations as the High Commissioner on Refugees. She worked in that job for ten years and supervised 2,200 people.Mom: Hmmm … What are refugees? I don’t know that word.Mandy: Mom! Come on, you know that word!Mom: Honey, we’re practicing remember?

She moved to the United States and received a PhD from UCBerkeley. She also got married and had two children. She’s really intelligent and I respect her. Mom: I think you’re going to do a great job tomorrow. Good luck!Audio Track 3-3-5Next year, I’m going to study abroad. I want to study business economics. It will help me in my career. When I’m 23, I may come home to look for a job. Most probably in a bank or an accounting firm. After working for 4 to 5 years, I may have some savings to start a family. At the age of 30, I’d like to be a father. If everything goes smoothly,I’ll retire at the age of 50 and travel around the world.Audio Track 3-3-6Hi Jackie,I’m so excited about visiting you! Here are the details. My plane arrives on Friday at 2 p.m. When I get to the airport, I’ll take a taxi, so I’ll arrive at your house at about 3:00. That evening, Jeff and Carol are taking us out for dinner at a nice restaurant. I really want to spend Saturday at the beach. I’m bringing my swimsuit and beach clothes. I looked at the weather forecast on the Internet. The weather is going to be sunny and beautiful. I’ll see you soon!KaitlynAudio Track 3-3-7/ Audio Track 3-3-8Celebrating life changesIn Mexico and some other Latin American countries, girls mark their fifteenth birthday with a celebration called the Quinceanera. In the morning, the birthday girl goes to church with her family and her best friends. She wears a beautiful (and sometimes very expensive!) dress. Later in the day, there is a huge party, with a big cake that matches the girl’s dress, and a night filled with music and dancing.When older people in the United States retire, their friends and coworkers often give them a retirement party to celebrate this life change. On their last day of work, there is a big dinner, with entertainment afterward. People make speeches and tell jokes about the retiree. Guests like to give presents, such as an album of photos of the retiree’s coworkers, or a homemade video of the retiree’s friends.Becoming an adult is a very important life change, and Japan has a special holiday to celebrate this. The second Sunday in January is Coming-of-Age Day. On that day, everyone who had their twentieth birthday in the last year goes to their town’s City Hall for a special ceremony. Everyone dresses up, and many women wear beautiful kimonos. The mayor makes a speech and gives presents to all the new adults.Some kids are afraid to start school, but six-year-olds in Germany can’t wait. For them, Schulanfang is a big holiday. To celebrate a child’s first day of school, parents or friends give the child a Zuckertuete, a big colorful cardboard cone filled with candy and little presents. People take pictures of the kids holding their Zuckertuete, and there is a school party later for the parents, with cake and coffee.Audio Track 3-3-9Coping with life’s st ressorsLet’s face it: Life is stressful. Stressful events in our lives are called “stressors.” Some of them are minor, such as uncomfortable air conditioning or a loudly ringing telephone. Others are more serious, such as the death of a spouse. That event tops the list as life’s most stressful event.You might be surprised to learn about the top 20 life stressors. Getting a divorce, for example, is number 2 on the list. And not all stressors are unhappy events. Pregnancy is a happy time for most families. It may also cause stress. Pregnancy is right below retirement on the list of life’s major stressors. We can’t avoid stress, but we can do something about it. Listen to three people talking about their responses to stress in their lives.Tina Vega, 16Last year was horrible! My family moved to another town. I had to change schools and say good-bye to all my friends. It was really tough. I felt so lonely in my new school. But then one day I decided to enjoy my life: I smiled at everyone and I joined the soccer club at school. Now I have new friends. I like my new school.Frederick Cho, 42Life is unpredictable. Three weeks ago I lost my job. I was upset for the first week. I couldn’t do anything. Now I’m looking for a new job. It’s not good to sit around the h ouse. I exercise every day and I’m healthier than I’ve been in years.Hazel Greene, 80My husband and I got married in 1950. He died five years ago. For the first two years I was depressed. I missed him so much because we did everything together. But now I’m feeling better. I think it’s important to stay active and positive. I read a lot and do volunteer work.Audio Track 3-3-10Coping with life’s stressorsLet’s face it: Life is stressful.

Audio Track 3-3-17Claudia and Roberto were talking about Roberto’s new job. Roberto was excited, but he was a bit nervous about learning a new software program. Claudia told him not to worry and promised to help him learn it. Then Roberto asked Claudia if she might get promoted soon because her boss had been transferred to a different office. Claudia said that getting promoted was not a big deal. She explained that her goal was to quit her job someday and relax. Roberto, however, said his life was planned already, almost right up to retirement. He thought it was important to have well-defined goals, but Claudia said that Roberto should keep his options open, and “go with the flow.” Roberto agreed, but only if the “flow” followed his plan!。

Now, back to you, Lucia …Audio Track 3-5-61. Hi, I’m Eduardo. I got accepted to college recently. Since the school i s just in my neighborhood, I’m going to live at home. I will not apply for a scholarship because it is too hard to get it. I think I’ll be able to support myself by working part-time. In my view, money is veryimportant though it is not everything.So most probably I’ll study business. I hope I can make it big af ter graduation.2. I’m Jill. I’m going to join a sorority. I want to make more friends of the same sex. I think that women should be united and should always help each other. I’m going to do volunteer work in my spare time to help those elderly ladies in the community with their errands. I’m not going to a large university since I can’t afford it.3. I’m Max and this is Sara. We love each other. We’re not going to live in student housing. We plan to live in a medium-size apartment not far away from the u niversity. We’re going to study together and work part-time.Audio Track 3-5-7I’m Mary and I’m twenty. I’m studying Lifelong Education at the University of Tokyo. I think it’s important for everyone to keep learning all their lives. That’s why I chose t o major in Lifelong Education. Personally, I’m planning to further my education in an American university after graduation. So right now, I’m taking an English class. I want to improve my English. I’m working part-time at a video store because I need to save money for my studies abroad.I have a boyfriend and he wants to go and study in the United States too. We have similar interests and personalities. I’m going to get married and live in a house by the ocean. Sooner or later, I’ll have my own children. I will most probably stay at home to be a full-time mother before my children are sixteen years old. To witness their growth would be the most valuable thing in my life.Audio Track 3-5-8/Audio Track 3-5-9New graduates talk about the futureAfter the City College graduation ceremony yesterday, we talked to three students about their plans and their dreams.Here is what Jameela Brown had to say about her future:I worked so hard for four years. I need a break now! I majored in biology and chemistry, and I hada summer job in a day care center. I’m going to take a year off before I start medical school. My plan is to travel and do volunteer work in West Africa. I’ll be a doctor someday but I’m not sure what kind of doctor I’ll be.Jennie Min talked about her plans:I studied business, and it was easy for me to find a job. Next month I’ll move to New York to start work at Giant Corporation. But I don’t really want to spend my whole life working for a company.I hope I can start my own business. Maybe something with food. I love cooking! In college, I cooked dinner for my roommates every night.Shane Peterson told us about his big dream:Wow! Four years really went fast. I can’t believe it’s graduation day! My major was computer science, but I spent all my free time playing music. I played guitar in two different bands. I also play electronic music, using computers. I have job interviews with three software companies nextweek. I’m not worried about getting a job, but I really want to play music, too. That’s my biggest dream.Audio Track 3-5-10/Audio Track 3-5-11Interviewer: We now have a winner! Stephanie Lee from Vancouver, Canada answered our questions and won the top prize: She will be our youth travel reporter in Europe! She’s going to travel for three months and write about her experiences for our website. Do you have any international travel experience?Stephanie: Yes, I do. Two years ago, I spent the summer in Hong Kong, China. I stayed with my grandmother and worked in the family business. I also visited Africa last year.Interviewer: What do your travel experiences tell us about you?Stephanie: I stayed in Hong Kong for about two months. I think that shows I can stay away from home for a long time. I don’t get homesick at all. In Africa, I went to Tanzania. The highlight was climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. It’s the highest mountain in Africa. The climb was very hard. Two people turned back before they reached the top. I made it all the way! Once I start something, I never give up.Interviewer: This jo b gives you a digital camera and pays your travel expenses. It doesn’t pay a salary. How will you get your spending money?Stephanie: I had a part-time job in a restaurant. I had worked there for two years. Fortunately, I saved a lot of money, so I won’t have to worry about money for my trip to Europe. Interviewer: Why should we choose you?Stephanie: Because I love to travel!

Everyone loves cell phones!More and more people are buying cell phones. With a cell phone, you can keep in touch with friends, family, and co-workers, everywhere you go. It’s important to choose the right cell phone, and the right pany.2. Choose the right plan.Look at plans from different panies, and answer these questions: Will I use my cell phone every day, or only in an emergency? When will I make calls — during the day, at night, or on weekends? Does the price fit my monthly budget?3. What phone is right for you?Before you buy a phone, think about these things: What size do you want? Is it easy to use? Does it have the features you need — for example, voice dialing or Internet service?4. D on’t talk and drive.You need two hands to drive a car. Taking your hand off the steering wheel to use your phone is risky. In some places it’s illegal. If you need to make or receive a call, stop at the side of the road.5. Use your cell phone politely.Turn your phone off in meetings, movies, restaurants, or any place where a ringing phone might disturb people. It’s okay to use your cell phone in a public place; just remember to speak softly and keep your conversation private.Audio Track 3-6-10/Audio Track 3-6-11How do you feel about cell phones?It can’t be denied: there has been a cell phone boom in the last decade.

My nearest neighbor is 25 miles away. My cell phone makes me feel safe. I can call someone in an emergency.Eric: I’m Eric. I think cell phones are unnecessary. Why do people use them so often, especially in public places? I think it’s a form of noise pollution!Carmen: I’m Carmen. I’m very busy. Sometimes I have to cancel an appointment at the last minute.

You’re still a kid, and you should be playing, not making phone calls! You don’t need to have a cell phone. I think you should be at least 16 before you get one.Mom: Well, can I say something? Perhaps Evan should have one.Dad: Why?Mom: I think cell phones can be very useful. I worry that I won’t be able to reach him, in an emergency. There would be no need to worry if he had a cell phone. I could relax.Dad: OK, I see what you mean. But I’m still not convinced they are safe for children to use. Let’s ask Evan’s doctor for her opinion.Mom: Sure. Good idea.Doctor: I don’t like cell phones that much. They’re very useful in emergencies, but in general, I think that they’re not a good thing, especially for kids. St udies in Britain say that cell phones may have a dangerous effect on children’s brains.Dad: I see. In that case, I think we should all agree that Evan should not have a cell phone until he is much older.Video CourseVideo Track 3-6-1Catherine: I thin k these days you can’t live without a cell phone.Brad: I always have my cell phone with me so I can call my friends.

Wherever you are, people can reach you. What I don’t like about cell phones is when they ring at the most unexpected times.

Packing permitsproducts to move from their source to the customer and supplies use value of products, which areotherwise useless to the customer who is usually remote from source.Protection — Most products require some degree of protection from the hazards indistribution. Packing furnishes the degree of protection needed to safely transport products fromsource to customer.Performance — Packing aids in transportation, handling, storing, selling and use of the product.This function includes such things as orientation of the product, ease of identification, appropriatequantity, ease of disposal and handling features.Communication — The packing must identify its contents and inform about packingfeatures and handling requirements. It generally provides space for shipping information as well.c.

They lost my luggage and I didn't speak a word of English. I had to use my handsto explain myself. People understood what I meant and they helped me out.Catherine: My recent trip to Africa was one of the most amazing trips of my life, This was my secondtrip to Tanzania, Africa. We visited a lot of villages, some very remote that we had to travel by helicopter. In Tanzania, it's very different from America so there are no maps. So, even traveling in a helicopter, we didn't really know where we were going to go. We didn't reallyknow the village names, so we just kind of had no destination and we got in the helicopter andjust flew around. And if we saw some animals or some rooftops of hut houses, we said, "Let'sgo there" and we just kind of landed.Dennis:I have a lot of funny experiences on the airline as a flight attendant. But one of the funniestI could recall was, there was this passenger who had a toupee and one of my flight attendantswas serving---l think---she was serving food---and she had this tray.
