among private companies and billionaire entrepreneurs to carry paying passengers into space and tokick-start a new industry, astro tourism.to astronauts, pilots, and aeronautical engineers –basically to anyone who knows anything about aircraft design –burt rutan is a legend, an aeronautical engineer whose latest aircraft is the worlds first private spaceship. as he told when he first met him a little over a year ago, if his idea flies, someday space travel may be cheap enough and safe enough for ordinarypeople to go where only astronauts have gone before. the white knight is a rather unusual looking aircraft, built just forthe purpose of carrying a rocket plane called spaceshipone,the first spacecraft built by private enterprise.white knight andspaceshipone are the latest creations of burt rutan.theyre part of his dream to develop a commercial travel business in space. there will be a new industry. and we are just now in a beginning. i will predict that in 12 or 15 years,there will be tens of thousands, maybe even hundreds ofthousands of people that fly, and see that black sky, says rutan.on june 21, 2004, white knight took off from an airstrip inmojave, calif., carrying rutans spaceship. it took 63 minutes to reach the launch altitude of 47,000 feet. once there, the white knight crew prepared to release the spaceship one. the fierce acceleration slammed mike melvill, the pilot, back in his seat.he put spaceshipone into a near vertical trajectory, until, as planned, the fuel ran out.still climbing like a spent bullet, melvillhoped to gain as much altitude as possible to reach spacebefore the ship began falling back to earth. by the time the spaceship one reached the end of its climb, it was 22 miles off course. but it had, just barely, reached an altitude of just over 62 miles --the internationally recognized boundary of space.it was the news rutan had been waiting for. falling back to earth from an altitude of 62 miles, spaceshipones tilting wing,a revolutionary innovation called the feather, caused the rocket plane to position itself for a relatively benign re-entry and turned the spaceship into a glider.spaceshipone glided to a flawless landing before a crowd of thousands.after that june flight, i felt like i was floating around and just once in a while touching the ground, remembers rutan. we had an operable space plane.rutans operable space plane was built by acompany with only 130 employees at a cost of just $25 million. he believes his success has ended the governments monopoly on space travel, and opened it up to the ordinary citizen.i concluded that for affordable travel to happen, the little guyhad to do it because he had the incentive for a business, says rutan. does rutan view this as a business venture or a technological challenge?its a technological challenge first. and its a dream i had when i was 12, he says. rutan started building model airplanes when he was seven years old, in dyenuba, calif., where he grew up.i was fascinated by putting balsa wood together and see how it would fly, he remembers. and when i started having the capability to do contests and actually win a trophy by making a better model, then i was hooked.hes been hooked ever since. he designed his first airplane in 1968 and flew it four years later.since then his airplanes have become known for their stunning looks, innovative design and technological sophistication.rutan began designing a spaceship nearly a decade ago, after setting up set up his own aeronautical research and design firm. by the year 2000, he had turned his designs into models and was testing them outside his office.when i got to the point that i knew that i could make a safe spaceship that would fly amanned space mission -- when i say, i, not the government,our little team -- i told paul allen, i think we can do this.and he immediately said, go with it. paul allen co-founded microsoft and is one of the richest men in the world. his decision to pump $25 million into rutans company, scaled composites, was the vote of confidence that his engineers needed to proceed. that was a heck of a challenge to put in front of some people like us, where were told, well,【篇三：英语高级视听说 下册 unit15】【篇三：英语高级视听说n new york on tuesday, nov. 1, to begin an eight-day visit, it will be his first official american tour in more than a decade. everyone knows what has happened in the interim. his troubled marriage to the late princess diana, his remarriage to camilla parker bowles, and the youthfulindiscretions of his two sons have been turned to a reality-based soap opera by the tabloid media. but most americans know very little about who the prince of wales is and what he does as heir to the british throne.members of the royal family hardly ever grant interviews, the queen has never given one, and you rarely see them talk. but last month, as his trip to the united states was being planned, prince charles granted 60 minutes correspondent steve kroftan audience, allowing us to follow him around and chat, not about his family, but about being prince of wales, a job and a life like no other.most of us in our lives have to fill out applications listing our profession and occupation. you dont have to do that, kroft said. no. not always, but sometimes, prince charles replied.if you did, what would you put down? kroft asked.i would list it as worrying about this country and its inhabitants. thats my particular duty. and i find myself borninto this particular position. im determined to make the most of it. and to do whatever i can to help. and i hope i leave things behind a little bit better than i found them, the prince said. its hard to say, but i think it is a profession, actually; doing what im doing. because if you tried it for a bit, you might find out how difficult it is, he added, laughing.he is somewhere between a brand and a public institution, a future head of state in waiting —and waiting. he is a symbol of continuity with no real power but tremendous influence that is tied to his position and wealth.the money comes from a 14th century real estate empire called the duchy of cornwall, which was established to provide an income for the heir to the british throne.today it includes 135,000 acres of farmland, forests, waterfront property, london real estate, and even a cricket stadium. it produces $25 million a year in rents and other income that supports the prince, his wife and children and a staff of 130. there are perks such as travel on the royal train. and $7 million from the government to help with official expenses.on a recent trip to the yorkshire countryside to mark the 850th anniversary of the village of richmond, the whole town turned out to greet charles and camilla, his new wife, longtime friend and former mistress, now the duchess of cornwall. they were recently voted the most popular couple in britain, nosing out the queen and prince philip and they seemed comfortable with each other and the crowds.there was clearly a bond between you and the people there. explain that to me, asked kroft.no idea, the prince replied with laugh.you have no idea? kroft asked.no, but i always enjoyed seeing all sorts of people all around the country. i do this over and over again, have done for 30-something years, the prince said.he could pass the time playing polo or do nothing at all if he wanted, a path chosen by most of his predecessors, many of whom were lay-abouts and playboys. but charles chose to invent a job where none existed. he made 29 major speecheslast year, visited 14 countries, and runs the largest group of non-profit organizations in the country called princes charities. he raises more than $200 million a year for those 16organizations, 14 of which he founded.the largest charity is the princes trust which, over 29 years, has helped to provide job training for more than a half a million young people.do you think if you werent doing this stuff, that it would getdone? kroft asked.if i wasnt doing it? no, the prince replied.asked if he felt as if he was making a difference, princecharles said, i dont know. i try. i only hope that when im dead and gone, they might appreciate it a little bit more. do youknow what i mean? sometimes that happens.as he approaches his 57th birthday, he sometimes feels misunderstood and undervalued. he was educated at cambridge, can fly jet planes and helicopters, is extremely knowledgeable about the arts, and has tried to carve out for himself a number of different careers— environmentalist, urban planner, real estate developer, and social critic — deeply committed to a vision of what great britain was and should be. his vision is laid out in bricks and mortar in poundbury, avillage of 2,500 people, which he created on his land near dorchester in the south ofengland. all his ideas on architectural design, class structure, aesthetics and ecology are here. and what he sees as the future looks very much like the past: an 18th century villageadapted for the 21st. prince charles gave kroft a tour of the village. and thats aconvenience store, which im very proud of, which everybody said wouldnt work. thats the pub, which again nobody wanted to touch. but now of course, the values are going up, and upand up.kroft remarked that the buildings looked as if they were builtto last, lacking flimsy materials.well, thats what ive been trying to encourage people to think about. … to break the conventional mold in the way weve been building and designing for the last, well, during the lastcentury really, has all been part of a throw-away society, princecharles said.everything in the village is constructed of native or recycled materials, sustainable development, he calls it, that conservesthe earths resources.single-family homes are mixed with small apartments so there are people of all income levels here living side by side in a community with shops and light industry. the narrow twisty roads discourage automobile traffic, and cars are parked out ofsight in landscaped lots.the whole of the 20th century has always put the car at the center, the prince explained. so by putting the pedestrian first, you create these livable places, i think, with more attraction,and interest and character. livability.he believes that the modern world with its cars and computers is slowly eroding our humanity, that we are losingtouch with the world around us.the british tabloids have made an industry out of his travails and love to portray him as an out-of-touch eccentric trying to stop progress, an edwardian hippie with no real-life experience, whos never had to draw his own bath or take out the garbage. hes been constantly ridiculed for what have been called his undergraduate ramblings, including his innocent admissionthat he talks to his plants.are you familiar with any of the plants here? talking to any ofthem? kroft asked.yeah, i know some of them. no, no, no, the prince said, laughing. no, i do all the time. not here. youve gotten more mileage out of that, i think, than almostanything thats … kroftsaid.j ust just shows you cant make a joke. … without them taking it seriously. so, its the same old story, the prince replied. his image is carefully managed by a communications staff ofnine that also handles his umbrella. they made it clear the prince would not answer questions about his wives, past andpresent, his sons or the queen. he mistrusts the media for past abuses, and worries that no one takes him seriously.what is the most difficult part of your job? i mean except fortalking with people like me? kroft asked.yes, exactly, the prince said, laughing. oh, dear. i think, that the most important thing is to be relevant. i mean, it isnt easy,as you can imagine. because if you say anything, people willsay, its all right for you to say that. its very easy to just dismiss anything i say. i mean, its difficult. but what ive tried to do is toput my money where my mouth is as much as i can, byactually creating like here, models on the ground. i mean, if people dont like it, ill go away and do it.you are in many ways a public advocate for the traditional. what are the great parts of great britain that are worth preserving, besides the monarchy? kroft asked.well, theres an awful lot of things that are worth preserving,the prince said with a laugh. the trouble, i think, in todaysworld is we abandon so many things unnecessarily, so often in the name of efficiency. if you make everything over-efficient,you suck out, it seems to me, every last drop of what, up to now, has been known as culture. we are not the technology. it should be our —you know, our slave, the technology. but its rapidly becoming our master in many areas, i think.prince charles says he is not trying to stop progress. im just trying to say that we ought to redefine the way in which progress is seen. is it progress to rush headlong into upsetting the whole balance of nature, which is what, i think, were beginning to do?you know, if you look at the latest figures on climate change and global warming, theyre terrifying, terrifying.as a member of the royal family, he is expected to avoid politically contentious issues. yet he has openly opposed a number of government policies, including the development of genetically-modified crops. hes raised questions about stemcell research and is a strong advocate of alternative medicine.he has expressed those views in speeches, letters andmeetings with government officials, some of whom considerhim to be a royal nuisance.how do you deal with that? how do you walk that line? kroft asked.well, years of practice, perhaps, the prince said.does it get you in a spot of trouble from time to time fromcertain people? kroft asked.oh, inevitably. but it seems to be part and parcel of the thing. imean, if i wasnt, i think, doing these things, id be accused bypeople like you, doing nothing with my life, the prince replied, laughing.asked if anybody ever asks him to tone it down a bit, the prince said, oh yes, of course. but i think the proof is in the pudding. and i think, you know, all the things they try to tell me to tone down over the years, if you look now, though, youll find theyre fairly mainstream.twenty years ago when he announced that he was going to begin farming organically on his estate at highgrove, no one knew what he was talking about and assumed it was another crackpot idea.today its big business in great britain, and prince charles has a line of high-end organic products produced on his estate called duchy originals that includes everything from biscuitsand jams to mineral water, sausage and turkeys.prince charles says the business has been quite successful. and that has grown and now turns over ?40 million ($71 million) a year. and im able to give away over a million pounds each year to my charitable ventures.when he arrives in new york on nov. 1 as great britains most popular ambassador, he will be selling a political, commercial and diplomatic agenda prepared by the foreign office.he will also be introducing the american public to his new wife, who will be making her first official overseas trip and donned a diamond tiara for the first time last week. she is not giving interviews right now, and may never.she is said to be interested in supporting, not overshadowing, her husband, and has no interest in establishing her ownpublic identity.why has it been 20 years since his last official visit to the united states?you dont want to see me all the time. you get bored, the prince said, laughing.is there anything youre looking forward to doing there, anything youre looking。

Volume Two For Term IIUnit One Scott Kruger: Binge DrinkingComprehension QuestionsExercise 1. Questions (with answers for reference)1. Who is Scott Kruger? What kind of person is he? What kind of family did he come from? What had happened to him shortly after he entered MIT?Scott Kruger was a brilliant young college student who is from a loving supportive family. He was smart and particularly gifted in math and science. He was also an athlete and a student leader. By all accounts he was a well disciplined and remarkable young man. His family is a close and private one and there are 4 children in the family with Scott and his twin sister in the middle. He died shortly after he entered MIT, the leading Engineering Institute in the country.2. Say something about the fraternity house that Scott chose to live.The fraternity house Scott chose to live is called Fiji house. It has a notorious track record of binging which Scott had no knowledge of before his selection. There is one tradition of the Fiji house called “animal house night”, in which new members of the house are paired off with the senior members and have to collectively finish the amount of alcohol decided by the seniors.3. Can you describe what happened that night that caused Scot t‟s death? Why did his story touch the people nation wide?Scott had been drinking with the rest of the members that night. When he was passed out he was removed to the basement and put onto the couch where he threw up and inhaled his own vomit. When the other members came down to the basement to check on him, he was purple and unconscious. When he was finally rushed to the hospital, he was in cardiac rest. Despite the effort by the medics and doctors to save him, Scott still died from alcohol poisoning. The case of Scott touched the people nation wide because it set people thinking why such a brilliant kid with such promise ended up in such a tragedy shortly after he entered the nation‟s No. 1 leading university. The death of Scott tells a lot about university fraternity management and university‟s inadequate disciplinary actions.Unit Two SportsmanshipComprehension exercises.Exercise 1. Questions (with answers for reference)1. What‟s the recent malicious wave against referees, even the very young ones?There is a malicious wave of violence against sports officials. The term “kill the umpire” is no longer a joke. There were cases of referees and umpires abused, beaten up by contestants or their coaches. This wave of violence even targeted kids.2. Who are Bob West and Codie? What happened to them respectively?Bob West is an umpire. In January 1996, he was appreciating a high school wrestling match. He was knocked out unconscious completely. He suffered a concussion and said he now lived with chronic back pain.Codie is a young referee working at the baseball diamond in Loveland, Colorado. In July, 1996, he was head umpire at a playoff game between rival teams of 15 to 18 years olds.The coach of one team, Seward, disagreed with Codie and he contested a call at the third base. One member of his team, Joyard Bara, was so anxious to win that when Codie declared his team the loser, he got so mad that he hit Codie right across the face. Codie was knocked out unconscious. He later received stitches in his mouth and treatment for bruise and chest pain.3. According to a professor who writes books on the psychology of kids and sports and some experts, what happened to sportsmanship?He believed that sportsmanship has become much more as an extinct concept in the society nowadays. According to some experts, the sports field is an extension of society. Society has become much more lax about miscreants and criminals and things people get away with. Things that people get away in real life get away in sports as well.Unit Four Danger at HomeComprehension exercises.Exercise 1. Questions (with answers for reference)1. What is the tragedy of Janet Edward? What happened to her two children in the family furniture fire? What did she do to save them? Was she successful?She lost her two children in a furniture fire started at her house. It was clear that her five-year-old son, Tyler had been playing with matches or a lighter and started a small fire on the downstairs‟ couch. He and his 2-year-old sister Tara were asked by their mother to wait upstairs and when Janet returned she found the room had already been engulfed by an inferno. When the fire first broke out, she was in a belief that she could somehow put it out. Therefore, she ran downstairs to get the fire extinguisher. A couple of minutes later, the fire quickly spread and there were so much smoke and fire that she could not get to her children upstairs though she tried and was badly burned doing so.2. What serious problems will the furniture fires cause? What has the furniture industry done? Is it good enough according to the Fire Marshals Association? Why or why not?Furniture fires in residences kill two people every day in the United States. It is the one product in homes that will spread a fire more rapidly than anything else. It produces tremendous amounts of black, thick, toxic smoke. According to the fire Marshals Association, it poses a real threat to human lives.The majority of the 700 deaths per year are the result of furniture fires started by smoldering cigarettes and the industry now has a voluntary standard making upholstered furniture resistant to cigarette heat but the Fire Marshals Associatio n said that‟s not good enough. According to them, smoldering cigarettes are not the only reason that fires occur in our home. It doesn‟t address electrical ignitions. It does not address small open flame ignitions. And certainly it doesn‟t cover the problems with children playing with matches and lighters.3. How is the burn test of the chairs conducted? What does the burn test prove?The fire test was conducted by Gordon Demont, a leading fire safety consultant and former director of Califonia‟s Bureau of Home Furnishings. He used two chairs, the first one of which was stuffed with highly flammable while the other was flame retardant. In the burn test, they found that only one minute into the test the fire had burned through the fabric and into the foam. At a minute and a half the threat of toxic smoke was real.The researcher found that once the fire reached the polyurethane foam, the flame quickly spread. And after just three minutes, the chair was fully engulfed. Intense heat and the foam‟s flammability made it difficult for the firemen to extinguish the flames, despite the repeated dousing from the hoses. The test proved how dangerous an upholstered furniture fire can be.4. What is the difference of the second burn test from the first one? What does this second test prove?There was a dramatic difference when they tried to burn the second chair. It took six tries before the chair would even ignite. And after three minutes, it was still a very small fire. It provided a remarkable contrast with the first chair with standard form, which after three minutes was a firery inferno.The reporter and the researcher stayed in that room close to 10 minutes, and the fire never burned deeply into the flame-retardant foam. And there was no problem extinguishing these flames. Such a huge difference between the two chairs proved that the flame-retardant foam really works.Unit Five No Dad at HomeComprehension exercises.Exercise 1. Questions (with answers for reference)1. Who is Sharon Anty? What kind of life does she lead with her son?Sharon Anty is a single mother living with her 11 year-old son Gillon on the North shore of Massachusetts.

I wish I had one.”“I have never gotten mad, but I have gotten pretty sad, that‟s why I crie d a lot. ”“Every time I think about him, I feel pain and sadness. ”The ache in the heart for an absent father makes many boys sad and angry.3. According to some psychologists, what can single mothers do to handle their children‟s psychological troubles?Dr. William Pollack, a child psychologist says mums can provide much what a boy needs from his father. In his book “Real Boys”, he says mums can find out what is really troubling their boys and learn to handle them the way many fathers do instinctively. He says one key is to understand that the boys communicate very differently from girls. They have to learn to decipher the code, trying to listen to and talk with their sons.Unit Six AutopsyComprehension exercises.Exercise 1. Questions (with answers for reference)1. What can an autopsy tell people? Why did doctors use autopsies?It can tell people why someone died. It can help people to find out the causes of the death.

How did the father think about his son and his crime?He had been a good boy in the father‟s eyes. He was respectful and polite. He was a loner, but he had never been in trouble before. The father couldn‟t understand why his son could go so wrong. It was completely out of his expectation that his son would commit such a cruel crime. 3. What did the father have to sacrifice for his son‟s wrongd oing?John Cook was humiliated. He had to bear all the shame, the pain, the hurt and the disgrace.

What happened to Antonio‟s family and how do people look upon him?The boss was upset and felt Antonio had clearly violated the policy of the company which was not to resist an armed robber. Antonio was supposed to just do as the robber said, just step backfrom the register and just give anything they asked for. According to the policy, it‟s all right for a clerk to resist only if they were attacked. Antonio‟s heroic deed was regarded as “just acted carelessly” by his boss.Antonio‟s family were in a plight. Financially they were struggling as Antonio was fired. Some people sent him mails to encourage him and addressed him as the …the 7-Eleven robbery attempt hero‟.3. Will the 7-Eleven store consider giving back his job? How did the company base its policy on?No, 7-Eleven had remained firm in its position. According to the administrative of the company “No ass et in 7-Eleven stores is worth defending with the employee‟s life.” They cited a study that found victims who resisted the robbery were far more likely to be killed than those who cooperated. They regarded Antonio‟s behavior as not sensible and recommendable.。

AOutside viewVoice-overEvery year, millions of young people take time out to help others as volunteers. Many of them do this during a gap year between finishing school and starting in higher education. V olunteers 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. V olunteers 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.1. 17 to 252. 100 people3.

So what can I do for you?Speaker 2Well, next year’s my final year and I need to think seriously about my career.Speaker 1I would agree with you there. Let’s have a look at your file. You’re reading English, you’re getting good grades, you got a merit in your first year exams and you’re on track for a 2:1 according to your tutor. Have you any idea what you’d like to do?Speaker 2I’m very drawn to publishing. I read a lot of novels and I’m quite a good critic. Speaker 1That’s a good start. I’m guessing you’d like to be a literary editor?Speaker 2That’s right.Speaker 1Well, I should tell you that literary editing is a hard profession to get into and it doesn’t pay very well, unless you’re at the top. You could think a bit more broadly than just literature.For example, there’s educational publishing, professional publishing and there’s also specialist publishing, such as sports. Speaker 2I’m not very sporty.Speaker 1Well, I understand sport may not be your thing but …you get the idea.Speaker 2Yes, I do. So how do I start?Speaker 1First 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 2Right. 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 2Thank you.Speaker 1The other thing you might do is check the Internet –sometimes, the publishers’websites offer internships or job experience opportunities for new graduates.Speaker 2I’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 the production side. Don’t dismiss those. Speaker 2 Thanks for the advice, it’s very helpful. But it’s literary editing that I want to do. Speaker 1Well, I wish you the best. Let me know how you get on. And good luck with your exams.1.The five pieces of advice he career adviser gives the student are 1,2,4,7 and 82.1. The woman is to take her second year exams.2. She wants to do literary editing.3. She is drawn to publishing, reads a lot of novels and is quite a good critic.4. He tells her it is a hard profession to get into and doesn’t pay very well.5. It is very good for her CV and the woman will learn something about the business.6. She can find it in the careers section of the library.7. She should consider marketing, sales and production.8. She maintains that she wants to do literary editing.Passage2HarrySo how was your first day of teaching, Lucy? LucyIt was all right –wasn’t as terrifying as I thought it would be.HarryWell done!LucyYes, I was frightened I’d go completely blank but it was OK. I think the students were happy.

So what do you want to do next?JessicaMarketing, I think. I’m going to do a year here, then –I hope –get a job at a language school in London, do my MA, then apply for a marketing job. Anyway, that’s the plan.PatrickSounds good.HarryWhat about you, Patrick? Where have you worked?PatrickI 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. HarryWell, I’m not like you and Jessica. I’m just happy to be here, in a beautiful city doing a job I enjoy.JessicaYou don’t see teaching English as a career? HarryWell, my thing is travel, for the moment anyway.LucyWhich countries have you been to, Harry? HarryI 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.PatrickCool.

I’ll put it into my diary.Kate ：Is that what you’re writing? I know you’ve been keeping a diary all the year. Janet It’s been a great year.

Oh no it’s still black. Oh dear, I hope it’s nothing serious. I haven’t backed anything up recently.Kate ：That’s not like you, Janet.Janet ：I know, but I lost my memory stick. I really should have backed things up. How stupid of me not to do that! Supposing I’ve lost everything!Mark ：Let me take a look. The power is still on. And also the operating system still seems to be working …I think it has to be the graphics card …But maybe that’s not the problem …Janet ：If only I’d backed things up!KateRelax, Janet!

You’ve got my laptop!KateIt’s all right, Janet, we’re taking it to the computer shop.

However, we’re going to look at one of the biggest technological marvels of the 21st century. The Airbus A380 is the world’s biggest commercial aircraft. New technologies were used in the design, engineering and manufacture of this amazing “superjumbo”. The Airbus A380 is assembled in Toulouse in France, but parts of the aircraft are built in several European countries. They are brought to Toulouse by various means of transport. This is a ship which was built in China especially to transport the huge sections of the plane. Parts of the main body are built in Germany. Special carbon fibre materials are used to give the plane great strength with less weight than usual. The wings are made in Britain of the same carbon fibre material. They are much lighter than aluminum and steel. Several parts of the plane are built in factories in Spain. Finally, some sections are built in France, so Airbus has its own factories in Britain, France, Germany and Spain. One of the most important pieces of technology for such a huge aircraft is the landing gear. This is built in Canada where extensive tests are carried out to ensure that it can land under any conditions. The engines were developed by Rolls-Royce at Derby in Britain. Finally, pilots have to learn to fly the plane. This flight simulator at Toulouse uses the latest digital technology. Now for the moment of truth, with154 planes ordered by the world’s airlines, the big question was: “Will it fly at all?”On the day of the first flight, thousands of people gathered at Toulouse Airport to see the superjumbo fly for the first time. They were not disappointed. The biggest airliner in the history of aviation took to the air as planned.Topics mentioned are: 1, 3, 5, 6 and 82.1.France2. China3. Britain4.

CListening inPassage1PresenterCould technological advances be changing people’s identities –and possibly even society as a whole? That is the theory behind a new book on the brain by Professor Susan Greenfield. The book is called Tomorrow’s People: How 21st Century Technology Is Changing the Way We Think and Feel. Greenfield suggests that advances in technology, and the effect they are having on our lives, are changing our very idea of who we are. In other words, they are changing our identity. And this, she thinks, is a very dangerous thing. I’m joined in the studio by Dr Jane Ferris, Professor of Neuroscience at Imperial College London and Brian Thomas, Professor of Surgery at University College Hospital. Let’s begin at the beginning. Brian, how do brains work?BrianWell, a brain is a mass of neurons, and these neurons make connections with each other –billions of connections –and store information. We all have basically the same brain structure. It’s what we do with our brain that makes the difference. We take in information. The neurons in our brain connect all this information and make sense of it. So to some extent, it’s the information we feed our brain that helps to make us the kind of people we are –and that’s what we call our identity.JaneAnd if I can come in here, children and young people are now spending huge amounts of time on video games that are often violent, also on the web, and on mobile phones. And Greenfield believes that the result is that these technologies may be changing the way young people think and even causing changes in their identity.PresenterWhy exactly?JaneBecause the information that an individual receives from computer games, for example, is very different from reality. And she fears that because of this, these technologies may be changing our sense of reality –what we see as real –and may even reduce it. And if this is happening, the result may well be changes in our behaviour.PresenterCan you give an example?JaneRisk-taking is a good example –we may start taking more risks.BrianBut she admits there’s no conclusive evidence of this.JaneThat’s true.BrianI agree that Greenfield asks some interesting questions, but to say that technology can influence society to think and behavedifferently –we need much more research before we can accept this.2.1. presenter2.

Aren’t they more trouble than they’re worth?Speaker 2I think that’s one of the stupidest questions I’ve ever heard!Speaker 1I thought you might say that.Speaker 2Of course we need computers. How can anyone say otherwise? They’ve revolutionized our lives. I mean, I don’t know where to begin, they’ve changed our lives so much. Look. To start with, computers mean we can communicate with anyone anywhere in the world almost instantly.Speaker 1That’s not quite true.Speaker2Well, you know what I mean. I can send a document from London to Sydney in five minutes. If I want to conference with people there’s webcam –we can see each other on camera –do you really want me to go on? Speaker 1But why is it so useful, to be able to send a document to Australia in five minutes? What does it actually achieve?Speaker 2It speeds things up. I don’t have to put the document in an envelope, stick a stamp on it and go to the post office, stand in a queue …knowing it will take another three days to get there –at least.Speaker 1But why the hurry?Speaker 2It’s good to get things done quickly. Speaker 1Why?Speaker 2Because you get more done that way. Speaker 1But is that really necessarily better? Life moves so fast these days, don’t you think we should slow down a bit, enjoy life a bit more? Speaker 2I think computers allow us to enjoy life more. Before we had computers if you wanted to research you had to go out and get a book. That took such a long time.Speaker 1So what? We just did things more slowly, that’s all. Are you saying we have more time now than we did? Everyone says that actually life is moving faster and faster. And what about all the problems that computers create? Speaker 2For example?Speaker 1Identity theft is a big one. You have to admit that identify theft has increased massively since we got the Internet.Speaker 2The Internet isn’t the only reason why identity theft has increased.Speaker 1You know as well as I do that it’s a bigreason …Speaker 2Yes, but …6.1. Do we really need computer?2. Of course we need computers- they’ve revolutionized our lives3.We can send a document from London to Sydney in five minutes; we can use webcam to conference with people who are far away.4. Life moves so fast these days. Don’t you think we should slow down a bit, enjoy life a bit more?7.1. I thought you might say that.2. That’s not quite true.3. But why is it so useful, to be able to send a document to Australia in five minute?4. But why the hurry?5.But is that really necessarily better?6. So what?7.

高级视听说教程(第二版)课后答案
Unit11. Most countries take a census every ten years or so in order to count the people and to know where they are living.2. A country with a growing population is a country that is becoming more populous.3. A person’s race is partly determined by skin color and type of hair as well as other physical characteristics.4. The majority of the U.S. population is of European origin.5. The geographical distribution of a country’s population gives information about where the people are living.6. The total population of the United States is made up of many different kinds of people.7. In other words, the population comprises people of different races and ages.8. The average age of the U.S. population, which is a relatively large one, has been getting progressively higher recently.9. Metropolitan areas are more densely populated than rural areas. That is, they have more people per square mile.10. The use of antibiotics has greatly decreased the death rate throughout much of the world.11. A country whose birth rate is higher than its death rate will have an increasing population.12. On the average, women have a higher life expectancy than men do.Unit21.Throughout history, people have moved, or immigrated, to new countries to live.2.Natural disasters can take many forms：those that are characterized by a shortageof rain or food are called droughts and famines respectively.3.Sometimes people immigrate to a new country to escape political or religiouspersecution.4.Rather than immigrants, the early settlers from Great Britain consideredthemselves colonists; they had left home to settle new land for the mother country.5.The So-called Great Immigration, which can be divided into three stages, or timeperiods, began about l830 and lasted till about 1930.6.The Industrial Revolution, which began in the eighteenth century, causedwidespread unemployment as machines replaced workers.7.The scarcity of farmland in Europe caused many people to immigrate to the UnitedStates, where farmland was more abundant.nd in the United States was plentiful and available when the country wasexpanding westward. In fact, the U.S. government offered free public land to citizens in 1862.9.The failure of the Irish potato crop in the middle of the nineteenth centurycaused widespread starvation.10.The Great Depression of the 1930s and World War II contributed to the noticeabledecrease in immigration after 1930.11.The first law that limited the number of immigrants coming from a certain partof the world was the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.12.It is important to note that in 1965 strict quotas based on nationality wereeliminated.13.At the end of the 1940s immigration began to increase again and has, in general,risen steadily since then.14.Will the trend continue for non-Europeans to immigrate to the UnitedStates?15.The U.S. immigration laws of today in general require that new immigrants havethe skills necessary to succeed in the United States because industry no longer requires large numbers of unskilled workers.Unit 31. As we look at the changes over the last century, we’ll use a lot of statistics to describe these changes.2. While the number of people in these goods producing industries went down, the number of people in the service industries went up.3. Over the years, child labor laws became much stricter and by 1999, it was illegal for anyone under sixteen to work full-time in any of the fifty States.4. In 1900 the average per capita income was $4, 200.5. One of the important benefits most workers received later in the century was health insurance.6. Whereas wages and salaries rose over the century, the average workweek dropped.7. People often tend to romanticize the past and talk about “the good old days.”8. According to a 2003 study released by the United Nations International Labor Organization, U. S. workers are the most productive in the world.9. Longer working hours in the United States is a rising trend, while the trend in other industrialized countries is the opposite.10. Workers in some European countries actually outproduce American workers per hour of work.11. This higher rate of productivity might be because European workers are less stressed than U. S. workers.12. Between 1949 and 1974, increases in productivity were matched by increases in wages.13. After 1974, productivity increased in manufacturing and services, but real wages stagnated.14. The money goes for salaries to CEOs, to the stock market, and to corporate profits.15. Some people say that labor unions have lost power since the beginning of the 1980s, and that the government has passed laws that favor the rich and weaken the rights of the workers.Unit41. A hundred years ago, one heard the same comments about the family that one hears today—in short, that the American family is disintegrating.2. Proof of this disintegration included evidence that women were not completely content with their domestic role.3. To the contrary, the very nature of the family has changed drastically inthe last fifty years.4. To be sure, the family is a very sensitive barometer for what is happening inthe society.5. Demographically, the predominant configuration of the family was the traditional one.6. The country idealized the family in these years：there Was a commitment tothe family and a reverence for it.7. Three characteristics stand out in this period：conformity to social norms, greater male domination of the family, and clear-cut gender roles.8. These decades were characterized by a lack of conformity to social norms and included the sexual revolution and the women’s liberation movement.9. Another important movement was the drive for self-expression and self fulfillment.10. The new configuration of the family had to include families of cohabiting couples, with or without children.11. The number of single-parent households tripled, and the number of unmarried couples quadrupled.12. They see a continuing decline in divorce rates since the 1980s but also a declinein birth rates after an initial increase in the 1980s. 13. There is an attempt to balance work with family obligations, and concern seems to be shifting from individualism to the new familism. 14. Places of work may offer more flexible working hours and on-site day care.15. For its part, the government could mandate parental leave and family allowances.Unit51. The U.S. government cannot ask for information on religious affiliation on a mandatory basis.2. One survey done in 2002 shows that 76 percent of the total population identified themselves as Christian, with 52 percent identifying themselves as Protestant and24 percent as Catholic.3. The number of Americans belonging to churches or other religious organizations is surprisingly high compared to other modernized nations.4. This is not to suggest that religious values are not important in these other nations.5. Freedom of worship is guaranteed by the First Amendment to the Constitution.6. The First Amendment also establishes the separation of church and state.7. The importance of religion in American history should not be underestimated.8. I’d like to talk about the increasing role religion has played in fairly recent history.9. Religion had seemed to be in decline, but there was a religious revival in the 1970s that surprised many people.10. The religious revival was conservative in nature and, at first, largely confinedto issues in the private sphere of life.11. These issues, however, were very controversial in nature and became quite politicized in a short time.2. Perhaps the“rise of the religious right’’is a temporary phenomenon in American life.13.Some people predict that American society will become increasingly secular andless religious in the future；others predict a more authoritarian political atmosphere based on conservative religious belief.Unit71. I understand why a foreigner might react skeptically to U. S. culture, especiallyif the person comes from a more ethnically and racially homogeneous society.2. It seems naive or even perverse to deny the existence of a culture that hassuch great impact on other cultures, for better or worse. 3. A melting pot, literally a pot in which metals like aluminum and copper are melted in order to blend them, is the traditional metaphor for the way the different groups of immigrants came together in the United States.4. Some people feel that the monoculturalist view of many nationalities blending together into an alloy of all the parts in it is a myth.5. Opponents point out that many groups have at times been excluded from participating in U.S.society through segregation and discrimination.6. U. S. society probably did not assimilate new cultural input until the new immigrants were viewed with less prejudice.7. The metaphor the multiculturalists use is the patchwork quilt, a mosaic of separate, autonomous subcultures.8. Intermarriage and the adoption of children of another race make a differencein how people in a family look at themselves.9. The point here is that the ethnically and racially pure individuals impliedby the multiculturalist view are more the exception than the rule.10. We inherit some of our culture from our families and absorb some of our culture unconsciously.11. If assimilation does not take place in the first generation, it most certainly does by the second or third.12. Monoculturalists fear a fragmentation, or even destmction, of U. S. culture, whereas proponents of the pluralistic view disagree.13. It would be wrong to assume that the dominant culture we’ve been speaking about reflects the culture of only one group.14. Opponents of the pluralistic view of culture cite Latinos, especially Mexican immigrants, the single largest immigrant group since the 1990s.。

视听说Passage2Unit1In a perfect world, we would all avoid too much credit card debt and would never have to deal with the trouble of being unable to meet our credit card payment obligations. But this is not a perfect world, and unfortunately, these 1) distressing situations are the norm for many people.If you find yourself in this position, or heading there, you should cut your spending now. Don't wait until your situation is so 2) desperate that you have few options available to you.Facing the factors that give you the 3) urge to spend money carelessly can be uncomfortable, but if you don't face them, how will you control your debt and 4) acquire the things you truly want?One negative aspect of using credit cards instead of cash is that you 5) are totally unaware of the fact that you're spending real money. The pleasant feelings you experience when you purchase the item 6) are isolated from the unpleasant feelings of making the payment when you get the credit card statement. Studies 7) affirm that most people are much less likely to buy when paying with cash as opposed to credit cards. So, try leaving your credit cards at home, and pay with cash or check.To really control your spending and your credit card debt, you need to examine what money means to you. Make an effort to notice how you 8) interact with money and what beliefs and attitudes you have about money. Studies also show that people with low self-esteem engage themselves in more 9) impulse spending and buying things they don't need.Remind yourself daily that your worth as a person has nothing to do with how much money you have. Once you 10) are convinced of this, you will break the psychological barriers that were keeping you from handling your money wisely.Unit2Of all the threats to human society, including war, disease and natural disaster, one outranks all others. It is the aging of the human population. The 1) proportion of people aged 60-plus around the world is 2) estimated to more than double in 2050. By 2047, for the first time in human history, the number of old people is projected to exceed that of children on the planet.This change will 3) have profound impacts on human society. One problem concerns the ratio of the number of people of working age to the number of older people, which is known as the "4) potential support ratio". This index has fallen from 12 in 1950 to 8 in 2013 and is expected to drop to 4 in 2050. Its decline means that the burden on the young, 5) economically and socially, will rise accordingly. This is because older people rely on the young, not only for care and support but also for the economic productivity that ensures 6) pensions can be paid and health and social costs met.A variety of issues in other areas such as family composition, the transfer of property, taxation and housing may 7) originate from the population "age-quake", too. For instance, family ties have been weakened by increased mobility and rising divorce, and hence the demand for 8) residential and nursing homes will increase since more older people will need to live in an institution or elder care center.No matter what the future reality will be, the aging of the human population certainly 9) poses a challenge to policy makers, economists and health care specialists around the world. This suggests that the human society will need to 10) be transformed into a structure that has the ability and resources to address the diverse needs of older people.Unit3A solution may be at hand for holidaymakers who are struggling to find quiet, out-of-the-way places to go. For those who really want to get away from the crowded and much-traveled 1) resorts, they now find it possible because a new holiday destination has 2) sprung up –Antarctica. However, this new hotspot, or freezing zone, might only be for those who are fabulously rich if a new policy gets under way. Tourism on Antarctica has been increasing 3) dramatically, from a few thousand people in 1985 to more than 40,000 in 2007. The growing numbers are 4) having an adverse effect on the untouched environment of the South Pole. To 5) combat this, researchers from Holland's Maastricht University have come up witha sensible solution: Limit the number of tourists allowed to visit and hawk the vacations to those who are determined to go and are willing to offer higher amounts of money than others for the trip.Many environmental protection agencies agree that there is a need to protect the frozen 6) wilderness from the damage created by modern tourism. Antarctica is the last 7) unspoiled place on earth. It has a very delicate ecosystem that could be easily upset by 8) streams of tourists landing in airplanes and using skimobiles. A difficulty exists because Antarctica is not a country and therefore has no government to pass laws or 9) guidelines to control the number of visitors. The Maastricht University team's proposal to 10) auction off a fixed number of tourist places seems a workable solution. It would limit the number of visitors and therefore contain the amount of environmental damage, and the money would be used to protect Antarctica's future.Unit4In recent years, doctors have focused on the growing rate of diabetes among children and young people. But the most common kind of diabetes, type II, is more 1) prevalent as people grow older and gain more weight. Before you know it, there is more fat around the waist and hips than you remembered. The statistics are 2) scary enough to make you want to stop eating immediately.The World Health Organization says by 2015, more than two billion adults will be overweight and 700 million will 3) be classified as obese. Being overweight or obese is an expanding problem in many countries. Less physical activity and foods high in fat and sugar are considered as causes for this global 4) epidemic.Some researchers studied how body composition, the 5) ratio of lean tissue to fat, and increased weight affected the risk of diabetes in more than 4,000 adults, aged 65 and older.At the beginning of the study, none of the participants had been 6) diagnosed with diabetes. Researchers assess the relationship between being overweight and the disease through 7) keeping track of their body mass index.According to researchers, even among adults over the age of 75, having a higher body mass index 8) was still associated with a considerably higher risk of diabetes. Men who were obese had a five and a half times higher risk of diabetes than those who were just overweight. For women, the risk was about three and a half times higher.As hard as it might be, making sure your weight stays at a healthy level is the only way to keep the risk of diabetes down. The results 9) affirm the importance of weight control during the middle and later stages of life 10) in terms of reducing diabetes risks. The study has sent a warning signal to those who don't think that there is much connection between their waists and their health.Unit5Each January, the entertainment community and film fans around the world turn their attention to the Academy Awards, which are officially known as the Oscars. Interest and 1) anticipation builds to a fevered pitch leading up to the Oscar telecast in February, when hundreds of millions of film lovers tune in to watch the 2) glamorous ceremony and learn whom the highest honors in filmmaking will 3) be conferred upon.The Oscars reward the greatest cinema achievements of the previous year. There are up to 25 categories of awards for outstanding individual or 4) collective efforts. In each category, there are as many as five nominees determined by members of the relevant Academy branch. For instance, only film editors may 5) nominate for the Achievement in Film Editing Award. There are two categories standing as 6) exceptions to this rule, namely the Best Picture category, for which nominees are selected by the entire membership, and the Best Foreign Language films, which are chosen by a committee of members drawn from all branches.The members of the Academy are some of the world's most 7) accomplished motion picture artists and professionals. There are roughly 6,000 members, who vote for the Oscars using secret ballots. The results of the vote are kept in 8) absolute secrecy until the TV presenters open the envelopes and reveal the 9) recipients on live television. In addition to the regular annual awards presented by the membership, theBoard of Governors, which is the governing body of the Academy, 10) is entitled to grant Scientific and Technical Awards, Special Achievement Awards and some other honors.As one of the highest honors in the film industry, the Oscars acknowledge excellence in filmmaking and carry great significance in the world of film.Unit6British tabloids provide their readers with an exciting mixture of gossip, entertainment and news. They 1) differentiate themselves from mainstream broadsheets by giving prominence to celebrities, sports and crime stories.No matter how many people 2) frown upon tabloid newspapers, it is a fact that the tabloids are popular and successful. The public has a demand for 3) concise news dose with minimum text and eye-catching pictures, and the tabloids are giving the readers just that. Here are some of the reasons why the British tabloids continue to enjoy popularity and success.First of all, the British tabloids 4) combat the new media wisely. Print media all over the world is facing 5) severe competition from the new media, be it the Internet or television, and no one 6) is geared up for the competition better than the tabloids. Most of the British tabloids have 7) embraced the new media instead of competing with them and hence have created e-versions or online editions of their daily tabloid editions.Second, the British tabloids are getting the format right. They have maintained a 8) compact format, which is rather convenient for the reader to pick up, read and carry. The text is short and 9) is supplemented with eye-catching pictures. The entire format stresses more on the visual appeal rather than the textual content. The British tabloids are proud of being what they are and accept that they are profit driven and aim for good business. The readers want 10) sensational news, and the tabloids have it. They do not compete with the serious newspapers, but rather carve a special market for themselves. In this way, they have earned a readership segment that is large enough to keep them going in the business.Unit7It is common knowledge that drug abuse leads to harmful consequences. Why then do people, particularly youngsters, continue to use drugs? Psychologists claim that there are three basic 1) motivations that influence people to take drugs: curiosity, stress and environmental factors. First, young people take drugs because they are curious, so they simply want to have a try. But the 2) hazard is that they don't know taking seemingly innocent drugs can 3) develop an appetite for stronger drugs later on. Secondly, young people take drugs because they are frustrated due to problems 4) associated with parents, school or the opposite sex. They want to escape from the stress caused by all these problems. Thirdly, the environment can also 5) contribute to drug-taking. If, for instance, a youngster belongs to a community, school, or peer group where other youngsters take drugs, he or she may soon be tempted to 6) follow suit, for fear of exclusion or non-acceptance.There is a growing 7) consensus among psychologists about the best possible approach to the problem of youngsters' addiction to drugs. They believe that school 8) authorities and social workers should work together to provide young people with much needed education on the dangers of drug abuse. Moreover, parents can do a great job in leading their children away from drugs by showing them attention, concern and love. Parents who always scream at their children and keep talking about their 9) inadequacies are regarded as likely drug pushers. A warm and happy family, where children get maximum encouragement and support, is most powerful against the attack of drugs. It is no 10) exaggeration to say that a happy home is a drug-free home.Unit8Almost forgotten these days, Mollie Panter-Downes' work provides a vivid impression of life in the Second World War.A Londoner by birth, Mollie Panter-Downes wrote for The New Yorker for about 50 years. In the 1930s, she sold the magazine a few poems, some short stories, and a piece about Jewish 1) refugee childrencoming to England. In 1939, with war approaching, Harold Ross, the editor of the magazine, was 2) desperate to find a London correspondent, and his fiction editor suggested Panter-Downes. Thereafter, she started to write for The New Yorker, specifically for a column 3) entitled "Letter from London" Weekly or fortnightly, Panter-Downes would put together a letter of about 1,500 words and had it cabled to New York. There it needed almost no editing because her writing was always concise. American readers 4) became informed of the war in England through Panter-Downes' letters. They read of the evacuation of pets as well as children, and the difficulties people 5) are confronted with, not just in terms of losses of ships and territory but also in terms of no food and hot-water bottles. The British temper found a splendid 6) spokesperson in Panter-Downes. She also desired to give voice to the people of all classes, and her willingness to 7) seek out working-class Londoners was evident in a report about a dustman's family in 1944.Panter-Downes went on writing "Letter from London" into the 1980s. She wrote reporter pieces and 8) profiles on such subjects as the British Museum and novelist E. M. Forster. Several of her books, for example Ooty Preserved (1967) and At the Pines (1971), largely appeared in The New Yorker. She 9) stayed loyal to the magazine for decades until 1985, not long after it was acquired by Samuel I. Newhouse, Jr. Today Panter-Downes is 10) virtually unknown in Britain. It seems a terrible shame to risk losing a writer who makes accurate yet subtle observations about human beings and how they deal with life.。
