Level4 Unit2 Part1 Listening - Extinction Events 1The Earth was formed about 4.6 billion years ago.The first life appeared about a billion years later.The first plants didn't appear until around 2 billion years ago.Until about 580 million years ago, life forms were small and microscopic. Since that time, life has evolved into many different types, or species. However, scientists estimate that more than 99% of them are now extinct.There have been several extinction events in the history of the Earth.In an extinction event many life forms, or species of life, die out.The causes of mass extinction events are unsolved mysteries.These events are not predictable and can happen at any time.Scientists think that some of them were started by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions.Events like these can change the global conditions that life depends on.One major extinction event happened about 66 million years ago.That event may have been started by a large asteroid that hit the Earth.As a result, the dinosaurs and about half of all species on the planet died out. When the asteroid hit the earth, it started a chain of events.A chain of events is a series of events linked together, like a chain.This particular chain of events happened over a period of months and years.When the asteroid hit the Earth, it caused a huge cloud of dust to enter the atmosphere.This cloud of dust blocked the sun and darkened the Earth for many months. Without enough sunlight, plants and plant-eating animals quickly died.With the deaths of so many plants and animals, the food chain collapsed.This led to the deaths of many more species.Mass extinction events have played an important part in the evolution of life.In fact, some extinction events have helped to accelerate evolution.For example, some mammals lived through the age of the dinosaurs, but they couldn't compete.When the dinosaurs were removed, the mammals were able to compete more successfully.Once they could compete, mammals evolved to a higher state.Without extinction events, perhaps we wouldn't be here today.Level4 Unit2 Part1 Listening - Extinction Events 2Scientists estimate that there have been at least 5 mass extinctions in the last 540 million years.They also believe that we have entered a new extinction event.Species are becoming extinct at a much faster rate than before.Instead of asteroids or volcanic eruptions, the current event is the result of human activities.Human activities, for example, have led to global warming.Global warming is the result of an increase in carbon gases in our atmosphere.These gases trap heat from the sun, so the Earth is getting warmer.As a result, sea levels are rising and weather patterns are changing.In addition, we humans are destroying the habitats of many plants and animals.Cutting down forests and polluting rivers destroys the habitats of many forms of life. There is no longer any doubt that this is happeningSpecies of life are disappearing at an increasing rate.Global temperatures are rising and weather patterns are changing.Scientists are warning us that fast action is necessary to save our future.If we don't act, we may go the way of the dinosaurs.(This new extinction event is caused by humans.)Level4 Unit2 Part1 Vocabulary - Body SystemsThe body's circulatory system includes the heart and blood vessels.The heart pumps blood to all parts of the body through a network of arteries and veins.The digestive system breaks down and absorbs food into the body.It supplies the energy that the body needs for growth and repair.After digestion, excess food is turned into waste and eliminated from the body.The nervous system includes the brain, spinal cord and nerves.This is your body's control system.It controls your muscles and organs, including your circulatory and digestive systems.The respiratory system includes the nose and lungs.It brings air and oxygen into the body and removes carbon dioxide.The lungs are where oxygen enters the bloodstream and carbon dioxide is removed.The immune system protects the body against infections and diseases.Sneezing and fever are examples of how the immune system works.If an infection invades the body, the immune system attacks it.(The blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart are called arteries.)(The digestive system is where food is broken down and absorbed into the body.)(The nervous system regulates your heartbeat and digestion.)Level4 Unit2 Part1 Vocabulary - Great DiscoveriesThe controlled use of fire allowed people to cook food and survive in the colder climates.Fire provided light so that people could work and socialize for longer hours.With the invention of agriculture, people could grow food and settle into communities.By growing food, people could spend less time hunting and more time for other things such as art.The domestication of animals allowed people to raise and use animals for food and work.By raising herds of animals such as sheep, humans had a regular supply of meat and clothing.The strength of animals such as horses and oxen was used for work and transportation.The development of tools and machines has resulted in more efficient manufacturing and construction.With better tools and machines, work can be done with fewer people and at much lower costs.The development of science and engineering has improved many things, including communications.With an understanding of electricity, telephones and radios allow people to communicate over long distances.(Science and engineering have changed the way we communicate with each other.) (With the development of agriculture, people had more time for other activities.) (The use of machines has reduced the number of people needed to make things.)Level4 Unit2 Part1 Dialogue - Smartphone AddictionI took a vacation last night.What are you talking about?Where did you take your vacation?I didn't go anywhere.I just spent an evening without my smartphone.How was it?It was great. I got a real magazine and read it with no interruption.It was very peaceful.Yes, I haven't done that in a long time.You know what?I'm beginning to hate smartphones.Really? but you can't live without one, right?Yes, that's the problem.These things are changing the way people live.Yes, I just saw a documentary about that.A husband was complaining to his wife that she was spending too much time on her smartphone.What happened? Did they get a divorce?You guessed it. In the end, they got a divorce.It's a bit ironic, don't you think?Smartphone were supposed to bring people together, but they are pulling people apart.Yes, you are right.Hey, just a minute. I've got a message on my smartphone, and it can't wait.Level4 Unit2 Part1 Dialogue - Rude Boss Hey, wake up and get back to work.What's wrong with you?I'm on my break sir, and I have a bad headache.Well, we are not paying you to sleep.If you're going to sleep, sleep someplace else.Yes, sir, sorry, it won't happen again.It had better not.Just a minute.Don't talk to me like that.What did you say?You hurt me. you don't have to treat people like that.

(The employee treats the manager respectfully.)Level4 Unit2 Part2 Listening - Point of View 1This man is holding a piece of fruit in his hand.The piece of fruit is either an orange or an apple.We can’t see which it is because we can’t see inside the box.The probability that it is an orange is equal to the probability that it is an apple. It may be an apple, and it may be an orange.It’s got to be one or the other.It can’t be anything else.Now let’s look at it from the man’s point of view.From his point of view, the probabilities are different.From his point of view, the probability that he has an orange is 100% or 0%. That’s because he knows what he has.For him there is no uncertainty.If he has an orange, the probability is 100%.If he doesn’t have an orange, the probability is 0%.He either has it or he doesn’t.From our point of view, the probability that he has an orange is 50%.From his point of view, the probability that he has an orange is 100% or 0%. So the probability depends on your point of view.Level4 Unit2 Part2 Listening - Point of View 2People see things from different points of view.This often leads to arguments between people.Here are some examples.From this man’s point of view, he is relax ing.He needs to relax because he has been working too hard.He hasn’t been getting enough sleep.His wife sees things differently.She isn’t aware of how hard he has been working.From her point of view, he is doing nothing.However, she knows what needs to be done around the house.It isn’t fair that she has to work while he does nothing.When people see things from different points of view, they often come to different conclusions.These differences can cause real communication problems.Level4 Unit2 Part2 Vocabulary – DisastersEarthquakes are caused by forces deep within the Earth.When the earth shakes, buildings can collapse and people can be buried inside.An explosion is a rapid, violent release of energy.Explosions can be caused by chemical reactions, such as inside an engine.A spark can ignite a mixture of gases, and release energy for good or destructive purposes.Accidents are often caused by people doing foolish things or by not being careful.One major cause of accidents is driving too fast.Accidents with fire can be very serious, and can result in very painful injuries.Epidemics are the rapid spread of a disease, such as the flu or ebola.Throughout history, epidemics have killed millions of people.Storms are caused by changes in the atmosphere resulting in high winds and heavy rain.Thunderstorms are caused by electric charges in the atmosphere that produce lightning, which can cause forest fires.Some storms cause flooding, and major damage to homes and cities.Followers of the islam religion are called Muslims.These Muslims are praying inside a mosque.Muslims are called to prayer 5 times a day, beginning just before sunrise.Christianity is based on the teaching of Jesus Christ, who lived more than 2000 years ago.Christians believe that Jesus is the son of god.Christians often gather in churches or cathedrals to worship.Followers of Judaism are called Jews.These Jews are meeting inside the synagogue, which is a place of worship and study.Judaism was founded over 35 hundred years ago, in the middle east.Judaism is based on the teaching of Moses, who they believe is the most important prophet.Buddhism began in India and is based on the teachings of the Buddha.The religion is about 25 hundred years old.Some Buddhists practice a form of meditation in which they empty their minds of any thought.Hinduism is the world’s third most popular religion and is the main religion of India.Hinduism has no founder and is a mixture of many beliefs.Some Hindus believe in the cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth.Level4 Unit2 Part2 Vocabulary – ReligionsvFollowers of the islam religion are called Muslims.These Muslims are praying inside a Mosque.Muslims are called to prayer 5 times a day, beginning just before sunrise.Christianity is based on the teaching of Jesus Christ, who lived more than 2000 years ago.Christians believe that Jesus is the son of god.Christians often gather in churches or cathedrals to worship.Followers of Judaism are called Jews.These Jews are meeting inside a synagogue, which is a place of worship and study.

The only information we have is that it disappeared.What about the last communication with the aircraft?The last communication was about 15 minutes before it disappeared.Was there anything unusual in the communication?No, there wasn't anything unusual.Nothing pointed to any kind of problem.Anyway, we are confident that we will find it.It’s a large aircraft so it shouldn’t be difficult to find.How many countries are helping with the search.Right now, we have search teams from 3 countries starting the search.It’s a big area to search, so can you give us an estimate about how long it will take. Yes, it’s a big area so it might take a long time.But we won’t give up.We will search until we find it.Have they found the wreckage yet?What are you talking about?You know, the airplane that disappeared last year.Oh, yes, now I know what you are referring to.Yes, they found some piece of it.What about the black boxes?No, they still haven’t found the black boxes.It’s hard to believe they still don’t know what happened.Perhaps they’ll never know, especially if they don’t find the black boxes.Whatever happened to it, there is no good reason why a modern airline is allowed to disappear.I agree with you.Level4 Unit2 Part3 Listening - Alcatraz 1Alcatraz is a small island in San Francisco Bay, 1.5 miles from San Francisco.From Alcatraz, you can see the famous Golden Gate Bridge.Alcatraz is also famous and is now a major tourist attraction.Tourists can reach the island by boat from the city.Alcatraz has often appeared in movies, including "Escape from Alcatraz" which was made in 1979.One reason it’s famous is because it used to be a prison, a very special prison.It was designed for prisoners who were causing trouble in other prisons, such as trying to escape.It was a maximum security prison, so escape was almost impossible.The waters around it are cold, and only very strong swimmers can swim from the island to San Francisco.The first group of prisoners arrived in 1934.There were 137 prisoners, including bank robbers and murderers.They came by train from another prison in the state of Kansas.During that trip there was heavy security.The prisoners were under guard and handcuffed.Nobody wanted them to escape.Level4 Unit2 Part3 Listening - Alcatraz 2The prison was designed to hold up to 336 prisoners.However the average population was only about 270.Although there were several notorious inmates, such as Al Capone, most of the inmates were not well-known.Many had tried to escape from other prisons or were considered violent.If a man did not behave at another prison, he could be sent to Alcatraz.At Alcatraz there was just one inmate in each prison cell.Prison life at Alcatraz was highly structured and boring.It was designed to teach prisoners to follow rules.They had four rights: food, clothing, shelter, and medical care.Everything else was a privilege that had to be earned.Privileges included working, visits from family members, and access to the prison library.There were also activities such as painting and music.Once a prisoner showed that he could follow the rules, he could be transferred back to another prison to finish his sentence.Alcatraz was used as a prison for 29 years.During that time, no prisoner escaped successfully.There were 14 escape attempts, involving 36 prisoners.Twenty-three were caught alive, and six were shot and killed.2 men tried to escape twice.2 drowned and 5 were listed as missing and presumed drowned.The most violent escape attempt occurred on May 2nd, 1946 when 6 prisoners tried to escape.That event is called the "Battle of Alcatraz."While it was in use, Alcatraz held some of the most notorious criminals in American history, such as Al Capone.Al Capone was a crime boss who built his career in Chicago.The prison was finally closed in 1963.It was closed because it was too expensive to operate.(No prisoner ever escaped from Alcatraz.)Level4 Unit2 Part3 Vocabulary - Graphs & ChartsA bar graph uses rectangular bars of different lengths to show and compare data.The lengths of the bars are proportional to the values they represent.The bars can be vertical, up and down, or horizontal.A circle graph, often called a pie graph, is shaped like a circle.It is divided into segments that look like pieces of a pie.Percentages are used to compare the segments, which are ordered from biggest to smallest.Line graphs are used to show the relationship between two variables, such as time and distance.These variables are plotted on 2 axes, the X-axis and the Y-axis.The X-axis often shows time while the Y-axis shows how quantities, such as distance, temperature or profits change with time.A flowchart is a type of graph that shows how a process or project flows from start to finish.A flow chart consists of start points, inputs, outputs and decision points.An organizational chart, or org chart shows the structure of a company.It shows how people and departments within a company are connected.It defines the roles and responsibilities of people and departments within a company.(Line graphs are very good at showing how things change over time.)(A flowchart shows how a process or project flows from start to finish.)Level4 Unit2 Part3 Vocabulary - Legal TermsLaws are rules that people are supposed to follow.A system of laws governs the behavior of people within a country.Criminals are people who break the law.People who commit a crime are called criminals.Some criminals are very dangerous and need to be put in jail.A jail or prison is a place where criminals are locked behind bars, sometimes for many years.Prisons are designed to keep criminals away from other people.A courthouse is where someone charged with committing a crime goes on trial.In court, evidence is presented to show the guilt or innocence of the person on trial.When someone breaks the law, they may be arrested by the police.To arrest someone means to take and hold them until they go on trial.(An action that is against the law is an illegal action.)(Someone who commits a crime may be sent to prison.)(When a person is charged with breaking a law ,they are tried in a court of law.)(An action that follows the law is a legal action.)Level4 Unit2 Part3 Dialogue -

懂你英语Level4 Unit 3 Part1it 3-1 listening时间花费Look at these 2 pie graphs. They show how these 2 people spend their days, not including weekends. The one on the top shows how Emma divides up her days. She is a designer who works for a company. As Emma’s graph shows, the biggest portion部分of her day is spent working.She works an average of 8 hours a day, which is one third of her day.She gets an average of 6 hours to sleep which is 25% of her day. That’s less sleep than Martin gets. According to his graph, he gets an average of 7 hours to sleep which is about 29% of his day.On the other hand, Martine who is engineer, works more hours than Emma does.Martine average 9 hours a day at work co mpare to Emma’s 8. That’s 37.5% compare to 33%.Other factors shown in the graph included time for meals and commuting to work.Other activities include getting dress and doing household chores such as doing laundry and paying bills. As you can see, for Martin, commuting is taking a large amount of his time.If he could reduce his commute time, he will have more time for other things. And it isn’t just the time. When the traffic is really heavy his commute is stressful.It will be great if he can work from home one or two days a week. He life will be more enjoyable. And we look at Emma’s graph, we see she probably needs more sleep.Perhaps, she should spend a bit less time socializing with her friends.On the other hand, socializing with her friend is something she really values.As for putting on makeup, she isn’t willing to change that.For her, exercising, socializing and staying beautiful help her deal with the stressful work.In conclusion, Emma and Martin both wish there were more hours in a day.This next graph shows how various factors compare important to 1350 jobs applicants.Applicants were between 20 to 25 years ago.They were asked to list which factors were most important for a good job.As the graph shows, money was the most important factor for 25% of the applicants.However, other factors are also important. The second most important factor was the work environment. In other words, for many, money is everything.People want to like where they work.In fact, if we combine working environment and co-workers, the total is 35%.This is well above the 25% for salary and benefits.Taking together, they are more important than salary and benefits.Career path is also important especially for younger applicants.They want to see that their job helps to build a successful career.For older workers, this may not be as important.Older workers often put the higher value on the balance between life and work.

One possible collapse is the use of new pesticides农药. Other possible causes include infections from viruses, genetic factors遗传因素and malnutrition（营养不良）. Changing weather patterns may also play a role as summers get hotter and winters get colder.These changes in weather may weaken the bees, making it more difficult for them to fight infections.Whatever the causes of colony collapse, it’s important to un derstand that many parts of our world are interdependent.Changes that effect on one species may have serious effects on other species.A change to our environment, can start a chain of event that is difficult to predict.In any complex system such as the earth environment, small changes can cause a un consequences.The danger of un consequences is something that we all need to understand better.L4 Unit 3-3 vocabulary 商品、服务和工作Goods and services supply what people need or want.Goods are things such food and clothing.Services included things such as health care and police protection.A country needs natural and human resources.Natural resources include fresh water supplies, farmland and energy sources such as oil and wind.Human resources includes a skilled workforce that can produce goods and services.Once we had supplies of goods and services, they need to distribute throughout the country.Highways and railways are both way to transport thing from one part of country to another.Electricity are distributed through a system of transmition lines.We live in an age of advertising.Advertising lets people know about goods and services.It educates people about a product being advertised.Trade allows for the exchange of goods and services between different countries.Exports are goods and services that are sold to another country.Imports are goods and services that are brought from other country.For example, many countries import oil from countries such as Saudi Arabia 沙特阿拉伯.Employees are the people who work for a company.Some employees do basic work such as operating a machine or driving a track.People who hire and direct the work of other are managers.Interview is one way to find out about a person who applies for a job.In an inte rview, the applicants can ask question about a company and company can find out about a person’s skills and experience.An entrepreneur is someone who starts a company.Entrepreneurs often have new ideas and ways of doing things that can give company advantage.Salary and benefits are used to attract new employees into a company.If the salary and benefits are good enough, employees may take a job and stay with the company.Benefits includes vacation time, health insurance and bonuses for employees who do a good job.When apply for job, it’s important to have skills and experience needed for the job.Developing and increasing skills and experience is good way to prepare for a job.Each job a person has is an opportunity to learn new things and develop new skills.Advertises try to increase to the demand for a product or service.Education and training are ways to develop a skilled workforce unforeseenL4 Unit 3-3 dialogue 谈论租房与房东You don’t look g ood, is something bothering you？Yes, it’s my landlord房东.Oh, is it something wrong with your flat.No, that’s not something wrong with the flat.

So now I’m in trouble. The landlord is angry and says she can’t trust me.That’s ridiculous.I told her about my friend and how I’m trying to help her, but she doesn’t care.Wow, she doesn’t s ound very nice.That’s right, she isn’t nice.

A water molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.Substances like sugar have many atoms in their molecules.A molecule of sugar has many atoms, including carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Matter is made of molecules, such as H2O, which is the water molecule.Matter can be one of three states, solid, liquid or gas.Water and ice are the same substance, but they are in different states.These states depend on the temperature of the molecules.When we heat a substance, the molecules move faster and try to take up more space. When we cool a substance, the molecules move more slowly.When we cool a substance to its freezing point, it becomes a solid.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In a solid, the molecules move very little.Their positions are almost fixed.To be fixed means that their positions don’t change.If we heat the molecules, they move faster and away from each other.The solid begins to melt, like ice cream on a hot day.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------At a certain temperature, a solid begins to change into a liquid.The temperature at which a solid change into a liquid depends on the substance.For water, the solid begins to change into a liquid when its temperature rises to about 0 degree Celsius.For some substances, such as steel, the temperature at which it becomes a liquid is much higher.对于某些物质,如钢,它变成液体的温度要高得多。

Level3.Unit1 Part2作者：Ding MingTime ZonesOur planet, the Earth, is the 3rd planet from the sun.It is a beautiful, rotating sphere.The side facing the sun is in daylight.The side facing away from the sun is in darkness.For example, when it's daytime in the US, it’s nighttime in China.In fact, there’s a 12-hour time difference between Boston and shanghai. When it's midnight in Shanghai. It’s noon in Boston.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Earth rotates from west to east.To know which direction is east or west, watch the sun.The sun travels through the sky from east to west.The sun comes up in the east and goes down in the west.Again, this is because the Earth rotates.It takes 24 hours for the Earth to make a complete rotation.And that is the length of one day.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because of the Earth 's rotation, the Earth is divided into time zones.Some countries, such as the Us, have several time zones.When it's 10am in New York. It’s 7am in San Francisco.Europe and the US are separated by several time zones.When it's 5:00pm in Paris, it’s 11:00am in Boston.So, there's a six-hour difference between Paris and Boston.One large country, China, has just one time zone for the whole country.As a result, at the same time, some parts of the country can be dark and other parts can be light. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------As you travel around the Earth, the time changes.The time of the day depends on your location on the planet.When you travel east or west, you may cross several time zonesFor example, if you travel from Beijing to Los Angeles, you cross eight time zonesThat means when it's noon on Sunday in China, it’s 8:00pm on Saturday in Los Angeles.For travelers, this means it can be very difficult to sleep after a long flightThe clock may say 8:00pm, but for your body it's noon.This is called jet lag.时差反应--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Crossing several time zones causes jet lag.It depends on how far east or west you travelBecause of the Earth's rotation, the Earth is divided into time zones.Kim’s movie star dreamKim is a popular Korean actress.she's 28 years old, slim and beautiful.she has a large fan club and her movie are very popular.Everywhere she goes, her fans want her autograph.but Kim wants more.she wants to be popular all over the world.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tomorrow is a special day for herShe’s leaving for Hollywood.

Level4 Unit3 Part1 Listening - Time DistributionLook at these two pie graphs.They show how these two people spend their days, not including weekends.The one on the top shows how Emma divides up her days.She is a designer who works for a large company.As Emma's graph shows, the biggest portion of her day is spent working.She works an average of 8 hours a day, which is one third of her day.She gets an average of 6 hours of sleep, which is 25% of her day.That's less sleep than Martin gets.According to his graph, he gets an average of 7 hours of sleep, which is about 29% of his day.On the other hand, Martin, who is an engineer, works more hours than Emma does.Martin averages 9 hours a day at work, compared to Emma's 8.That's 37.5% compared to 33%.Other factors shown in the graphs include time for meals and commuting to work.Other activities include getting dressed and household chores, such as doing laundry and paying bills.As you can see, for Martin, commuting is taking a large amount of his time.If he could reduce his commute time, he would have more time for other things. And it isn't just the time.When the traffic is really heavy, his commute is stressful.It would be great if he could work from home one or two days a week.His life would be more enjoyable.And looking at Emma's graph, we see that she probably needs more sleep.Perhaps she should spend a bit less time socializing with her friends.On the other hand, socializing with her friends is something she really values.As for putting on makeup, she isn't willing to change that.For her, exercising, socializing and staying beautiful help her deal with the stress of work.In conclusion, Emma and Martin both wish that there were more hours in the day.Level4 Unit3 Part1 Listening - Job Satisfaction FactorsThis next graph shows how various factors compare in importance to 1350 job applicants.These applicants were between 20 and 25 years old.They were asked to list which factors were most important in a good job.As the graph shows, money was the most important factor for 25 percent of the applicants.However, other factors were also important.The second most important factor was the work environment.In other words, for many, money isn't everything.People want to like where they work.In fact, if we combine Work Environment and Co-workers, the total is 35%.This is well above the 25% for salary and benefits.Taken together, they are more important than salary and benefits.Career path is also important, especially for younger applicants.They want to see that their job helps build a successful career.For older workers, this may not be as important.Older workers often put a higher value on the balance between life and work. What do you think?(The best jobs satisfy several needs, not just salary and benefits.)Level4 Unit3 Part1 Vocabulary - Political TermsThe government of a country, is its control system.Governments make laws and provide services to their citizens.The land over which a government has control is its territory.A country's territory has boundaries or borders.When you leave or enter a country's territory, you usually need a passport.A country's military provides defense for its territory, and its citizens.The military includes an army, an air force, and a navy.The main purpose of a military is to defend a country from attack.A country's criminal justice system includes the police, courts, and prisons.Its purpose is to enforce the law and protect people from criminal activities.A country's social services system provides support to people in need.It provides basic health care services and helps poor people support their children.(Most of the citizens of a country live within its territory.)(The criminal justice system is responsible for enforcing the law.)(When a country wants to change its boundaries, there may be a war.)(The territory of a country is defined by its boundaries.)Level4 Unit3 Part1 Vocabulary - Types of GovernmentA state of anarchy exists when a country has no effective government.In an anarchy, there is nobody to make decisions or enforce the laws.An autocracy is the simplest form of government.In an autocracy, the government is controlled by a single individual, known asthe autocrat.Whether or not an autocracy is successful depends on the character and ability of the leader.In an oligarchy, a small group of people controls the government.Membership in this group often depends on family connections, wealth, or military power.In a republic, individuals are elected to represent the citizens.The power of the government in a republic is limited by a constitution.A constitution is a written document that makes the rules for a government to follow.This limits the power of the government.A constitution defines the relationship between the government and its citizens.(Bribery and corruption are common as a way to increase the wealth of the oligarchs.) (Without a good government,decisions that need t o be made,won’t be made.)(In a oligarchy,ordinary citizens may not be aware that they have little or no power.) (Without a government, there is nobody to make decisions or enforce the laws.)Level4 Unit3 Part1 Dialogue - Quitting a JobI hear you lost your job.Is that right?Yes, that's right.I quit.I quit because of the way my boss treats people.What happened?I wasn't feeling good one day, and he yelled at me.When I told him not to yell at me, he threatened me.Is that all?That's what bosses do.Sure, sometimes maybe.But my boss treated everyone badly, and I was tired of it.It was the last straw.The last straw?Yes, you know, it reached the point *where I couldn't take it anymore.I see.So now you don't have a job?Right, I don't have a job.But at least I don't have to deal with my boss anymore.What are you going to do now?To be honest, I'm not sure, but I'll find something.I'll get a job, even if it pays less than before.Are you sorry you quit?Yes, and no.I guess I should have found another job first, and then quit.Why didn't you?As I said, he pushed me too far.There are some things that I just won't take.What about your wife?She isn't happy that I don't have a job, but she understands.She knows I have a temper.And she knows I wasn't happy working there.Well, I guess I'm lucky.My job isn't great, but I like the people I'm working with, and I like my manager. Are you planning to stay there?I don't know.For now it's OK, but of course it all depends on how things change.Well if you hear of any job openings, let me know, OK?Sure, send me your resume, and I'll let people know you're looking.Thanks.(His boss pushed him too far one too many times, so he couldn't wait to quit.) (His boss treated him badly one too many times.)(He treated his employees badly.)(He isn't sure what he is going to do.)Level4 Unit3 Part2 Listening - Story of Lang Lang 1Lang Lang is one of the world's greatest concert pianists.His first contact with western music was when he was just two years old.He watched a cartoon in which a cat played a famous piece by Franz Liszt.From this experience, he decided he wanted to learn to play the piano.When he was three and half years old, he started piano lessons.Two years later he won first place in a piano competition.This early success gave his father high hopes that Lang Lang would become a great pianist.When Lang Lang was nine years old, his father quit his job and took him to Beijing. They left everything behind, including his mother who had to work.Lang Lang didn't want to leave her behind, but his father insisted.His father wanted him to study at the famous Central Conservatory of Music.When they moved to Beijing, they rented a flat in a poor area of the city.During this time, Lang Lang practiced for several hours a day.He started practicing at 5 o'clock, which upset his neighbors.They would often pound on his door and ask him to stop practicing.They were so angry that he often feared that they would beat him up.Level4 Unit3 Part2 Listening - Story of Lang Lang 2Lang Lang usually had piano lessons once a week to prepare for the Conservatory. Nearly 2000 students were applying for just 12 places at the Conservatory.His lessons were expensive and very difficult, especially because of his piano teacher. His music teacher didn't like Lang Lang.He called his teacher "Professor Angry" because she always gave him a hard time.One afternoon, his teacher told him he had no talent and told him to go home.Upon hearing the news, his father screamed and seemed to lose his mind.His father told him that everything was destroyed and there was no reason to live.He ordered Lang Lang to jump off the 11th-floor balcony.After this, Lang Lang almost went crazy.He didn't want to play the piano anymore.For several months he neither played the piano nor spoke to his father.Then some friends encouraged him to play a piece for them and he realized his great love of the piano.For the next 19 months he practiced hard and his father encourage him.Finally, when he was 10, he was accepted into the Conservatory with a full scholarship.In 1995, when he was 13 years old, he played music by Chopin in the Beijing Concert Hall.In that same year he won first place in an international competition for young musicians in Japan.When he was 15 he move to the United States and began studies with a famous pianist at the Curtis Institute.Since then his career has grown and he has become a major star.One American music critic called him "the biggest, most exciting keyboard talent I have encountered in many a year of attending piano recitals."In 2010, Lang Lang signed a recording contract for several million dollars.In 2011 he performed at the White House for Presidents Obama of the United States and Hu jintao of China.With all of his success and fame, Lang Lang tries to encourage others.He uses his fame to spread the popularity of classical music and encourage young musicians.And in the end, Lang Lang and his father have rebuilt their relationship.In his autobiography, Mr Lang dedicated the book to his mother and father. (When he played a piece for his friends, he realized how much he loved the piano.)Level4 Unit3 Part2 Vocabulary - Business and Economics A person's debt is how much he or she owes to others.Debt can be in the form of money, products, or services owed to someone else.If you borrow money, you are taking on new debt.An asset is something that has value, such as money, property, or even a nice personality.Assets can be used to pay off debts.Specialized knowledge or skills are also assets that can be used to get a job or earn money.Real estate is property, such as land, houses, and buildings.Buying, selling or renting property is the business of real estate.Buying and selling real estate is a popular form of investment.Inventory is a detailed list of items in one's possession.In business one's inventory is the supply of items that are ready for sale.If a store runs out of things to sell, it needs to resupply its inventory.An investment, is the purchase of an asset with the hope that its value will increase.A good investment will produce income, such as rental income.If the value of an asset falls, the investment will lose money.(When you use a credit card, you are taking on debt.)(If you buy a house and get a loan, the amount you owe on your loan is part of your debt.)(When you sell an asset at a higher price than what you paid for it, you have made a profit.)(Learning a new skill is a good investmentif it can get you a better job.)Level4 Unit3 Part2 Vocabulary - Countries and Continents China is the second-largest country in the world by land area.A major issue for China is the continuing expansion of its deserts, which have led to dust storm each spring.South Asia is referred to as the Indian subcontinent.It's called a subcontinent because it is separated from the rest of Asia by mountains and seas.It is one of the world's poorest regions with about 75% of the poor livingin rural areas.Europe is the western neighbor of Asia.It is separated from Asia by the Ural mountains which extend for 1500 miles and a north-south direction from the Arctic Ocean.The Philippines is the only country in Asia with a majority of Christians.The Philippines is an island nation with over 7000 islands.It's located in the South China sea.The country's capital city is Manila.Asia is the world's largest continent, covering about 30% of the Earth's land area.Several island nations are also a part of Asia, including Japan.The world's tallest mountains are in Asia, including Mt Everest.(The traditional boundary line between them is the Ural mountain range.)(Forty percent of the world's poor live here.)Level4 Unit3 Part2 Dialogue - Election & Voting Hey, have you decided how you're going to vote?No, I haven't.I don't like any of the candidates.So you aren't going to vote?Hemmmm, I don't know, probably not.It seems like a waste of time.Really?Why do you think it's a waste of time?Have you listened to any of their speeches?Yes, I have, and I agree that the speeches aren't very good. Exactly.I can't believe anything they say.They are just saying what they think we want to hear.Sure they wanna get elected.I admit that the system isn't perfect, but it's all we have.Whether I vote or not won't make a difference.It's all a show.Well, I think you should vote.Do a little research about the candidates.Have you?Yes, I have.I've looked into the backgrounds, and education.How can that help?For example, if they know something about science, it could help the government make better decisions about issues such as climate change.Yes, that's a good point.We need well educated people making decisions.And I look to see what kind of people are supporting them.What issues do you think are most important?I guess for me, pollution, housing and taxes are important.I want to know how the government plans to deal with these issues.Yes, I agree with you.Maybe I will vote, especially if we can get together and talk more about it.What about dinner tomorrow night?Sorry, I'm busy tomorrow night.Oh, that's too bad.Do you have any time in the next few days?I'll take you to a nice restaurant.Actually, I'm quite busy.But I may have some time Sunday afternoon.We could have lunch somewhere near the office.Sure, that works for me.I'll give you a call on Saturday, and we can decide the details, OK?OK, I'll be looking forward to seeing which candidate you support.(She's looked into their backgrounds and education.)Level4 Unit3 Part3 Listening - Honey Bee Pollination Honeybees play an interesting and important role in nature.In addition to making honey, honeybees help many plants reproduce.They do this by pollinating the plant, which means to transfer pollen.Pollination occurs when pollen is moved within a plant's flower or carried to another flower.This is how the plants reproduce.For reproduction to succeed, the pollen must be transferred from the male part of a flower to the female part.Many plants depend on pollination for reproduction.These include many fruits and vegetables.Besides honeybees, there are many other pollinators, including birds, insects and other kinds of bees.Without enough pollinators, many of our favorite fruits and vegetables would become more expensive and hard to find.These include almonds and cherries.Honeybees are important pollinators and play an important role in agriculture. Beekeepers are people who keep honeybees.In addition to collecting honey, some beekeepers provide pollination services to farmers.They do this by raising and managing colonies of bees.Farmers need the colonies to pollinate their crops.Beekeepers can provide and manage bee colonies for farmers.Level4 Unit3 Part3 Listening - Colony CollapseHoney bees are social insects that live in colonies.A bee colony consists of a queen bee, male drones and thousands of female worker bees.Each colony also contains eggs and immature bees in various stages of development.The number of bees within a colony depends on seasonal changes.A colony's population increases during the warm seasons and decreases during colder seasons.In recent years, many bee colonies have collapsed, or disappeared.A bee colony collapse occurs when a majority of the bees in a colony disappear and leave behind the queen.Some beekeepers have reported losing 30 to 90 percent of their colonies.This loss of bee colonies can cause significant problems for farmers who depend on them to pollinate their crops.In some parts of the world a shortage of bees has increased the cost of renting bees by up to 20%.There are several possible causes for bee colony collapse.One possible cause is the use of new pesticides.Other possible causes include infections from viruses, genetic factors,and malnutrition.Changing weather patterns may also play a role as summers get hotter and winters get colder.These changes in weather may weaken the bees, making it more difficult for them to fight infections.Whatever the cause of colony collapse, it's important to understand that many parts of our world are interdependent.Changes that affect one species may have serious effects on other species.A change to our environment can start a chain of events that is difficult to predict.In any complex system such as the Earth's environment, small changes canhave unforeseen consequences.The danger of unforeseen consequences is something we all need to understand better.(The Earth's environment is an extremely complex system.)(In addition to making honey, honeybees help many plants reproduce.)Level4 Unit3 Part3 Vocabulary - Business and Economics Goods and services supply what people need or want.Goods are things such as food and clothing.Services include things such as health care and police protection.A country needs natural and human resources.Natural resources include fresh water supplies, farmland and energy sources such as oil and wind.Human resources include a skilled workforce that can produce goods and services.Once we have a supply of goods or services, they need to be distributed throughout a country.Highways and railways are both ways to transport things from one part of a country to another.Electricity is distributed through a system of transmission lines.We live in an age of advertising.Advertising lets people know about goods and services.It educates people about the products being advertised.Trade allows for the exchange of goods and services between different countries. Exports are goods and services that are sold to another country.Imports are goods and services that are bought from another country.For example, many countries import oil from countries such as Saudi Arabia.(Education and training are ways to develop a skilled workforce.)(Without a system of distribution, goods and services cannot be supplied throughout a country.)Level4 Unit3 Part3 Vocabulary - Career BuildingEmployees are the people who work for a company.Some employees do basic work, such as operating a machine or driving a truck.The people who hire and direct the work of other employees are managers. Interviews are one way to find out about a person who applies for a job.In an interview, a job applicant can ask questions about a company, and the company can find out about a person's skills and experience.An entrepreneur is someone who starts a new company.Entrepreneurs often have new ideas and ways of doing things that can give their company an advantage.Salary and benefits are used to attract new employees into a company.If the salary and benefits are good enough, employees may take the job, and stay with the company.Benefits include vacation time, health insurance and bonuses for employees who do a good job.When applying for a job, it's important to have the skills and experience needed for the job.Developing and increasing skills and experience is a good way to prepare for a good job.Each job a person has is an opportunity to learn new things and develop new skills.(A raise in salary is an example of benefits.)(Advertisers try to increase the demand for a product or service.)Level4 Unit3 Part3 Dialogue - Landlord TroubleYou don't look good.Is something bothering you?Yes, it's my landlord.Oh, it there something wrong with your flat?No, there is nothing wrong with the flat.But I'm going to have to move out.Why do you have to move out?For the last two months, a friend has been staying with me.She is staying until she can find a job.That's nice of you.Yes, but I'm not supposed to have anyone staying there.Was that in the rental agreement?Yes, it was.It's okay if a friend stays for a few days, but not for more than that.So you broke the agreement, even though it was for a good reason. Anyway, one of my neighbors told the landlord about my friend.So now I'm in trouble.The landlord is angry and says she can't trust me.That's ridiculous.I told her about my friend and how I'm trying to help her, but she doesn't care.Wow, she doesn't sound very nice.That's right, she isn't nice.She is just interested in money.In fact, she is going to keep my security deposit.How can she do that?Nothing is damage, right?Right, everything in the flat is fine.She's keeping the deposit because I broke the rental agreement.What about your rent?Yes, that's another problem.I've already paid three months rent, so I hope I get it back. What can you do if she doesn't return it?I don't know.I'll talk to my agent.He's nice, and maybe he can help.Maybe I should refuse to leave the flat until I get it back.Be sure to take pictures of the flat.What for?Just to show the condition of the flat.Then she can't say your friend damage it in anyway.Good idea.She's a small-minded, evil woman.I should never have rented it from her in the first place.(One of her neighbors told the landlord about her friend.) (Her friend was going to stay until she could find a job.) (She has paid 3 months' rent in advance.)(The landlord is going to keep the security deposit.)Level4 Unit3 Part4 Listening - Dream JobsWhat kind of careers are the best, and what are the qualifications?One of the most popular careers for kids is to become an astronaut.Many kids dream of going into space when they grow up.They dream of working on a space station or exploring deep space.To become an astronaut it's important to have the right background.Many astronauts have a background in engineering, physics or medicine. sometimes they have a military background, such as flying military aircraft.As for pay, astronauts can earn a good salary, but not great.Another popular career is to become a musician or actor.Many kids dream of becoming famous singers or movie stars.However, most musicians and actors don't become famous.They are usually paid by the hour or by the performance.Only a very few earn lots of money.So the best advice is not to become a musician or actor unless that's your real passion.Becoming a professional athlete is another dream job for many.It's nice to imagine playing a favorite sport and getting paid for it.However, becoming a professional athlete takes a lot of work and practice.Great athletes practice for hours a day with teammates and coaches.They also work regularly with trainers to keep their bodies strong.The level of pay for athletes depends on the success and level of their performance. Athletes often have short careers because of the physical requirements of their sport.When they are no longer able to compete at a high level, some athletes become coaches.Firefighters and police officers are important jobs that help and protect people.These careers require applicants to complete training programs and pass written and physical tests.These jobs can be exciting and dangerous, so they require courage and sometimes sacrifice.Level4 Unit3 Part4 Listening - Jobs & WagesWhen considering salary and benefits, some of the lowest paying jobs are inthe hospitality and beauty industries.For example, food service workers and hair stylists generally have low salaries. These kinds of jobs don't require much education or training.But again, if you enjoy what you are doing, that may be good enough.For example, you may really enjoy talking with your customers.Spending your life doing something you dislike can be very unsatisfying, even if the salary is high.Some of the highest paid professions include doctors, lawyers and scientists. However, these professions require high levels of education and training.The path to becoming a doctor, for example, is a long one.Doctors require a university degree, several years in medical school and several more years of experience.Only then are they certified as a medical doctor, or MD.So it doesn't make sense to consider these professions unless you are willing to work hard for many years.And of course, you should really care about doing the work well.。

Now, when a normal student writes a paper, they might spread the work out a little like this. So, you know --you getstarted maybe a little slowly, but you get enough done in the first week that, with some heavier days later on, everything gets done, things stay I would want to do that like that. That would be the plan. I would have it all ready to go, but then, actually, the paper would come along, and then I would kind of do this.在大学，我读的是政府专业。

也就是说，我需要写很多的论文。

一般的学生写论文时，他们可能会这样安排：(看图)你可能开头会慢一点，但第一周有这些已经足够。

后期再一点点的增加，最后任务完成，非常的有条理。

我也想这么做，所以一开始也是这么计划的。

我做了完美的安排(看图)，但后来，实际上论文任务一直出现，我就只能这样了(看图)。

And that would happen every single paper. But then came my 90-page senior thesis, a paper you're supposed to spend a year on. And I knew for a paper like that, my normal work flow was not an option. It was way too big a project. So I planned things out, and I decided I kind of had to go something like this. This is how the year would go. SoI'd start off light, and I'd bump it up in the middle months, and then at the end, I would kick it up into high gear just like a little staircase. How hard could it be to walk up the stairs No big deal, right我的每一篇论文都是这种情况，直到我长达90页的毕业论文任务，这篇论文理应花一年的时间来做，我也知道这样的工作，我先前的工作方式是行不通的，这个项目太大，所以我制定了计划。
