Unit 4 CreativityPart 1 Listening, Understanding and SpeakingListening IIn China, education is considered a race. Students have to begin as early as possible and have to proceed as quickly as possible around the track. Success is measured by how many students cross the finish line in the short time .In America, we recognize the race too, but we feel that the students have a chance to explore things for themselves, even if not all of them reach the finish line. As a result of their exploring, some of the participants may have more to offer by the end of the race.The advantage of the Chinese way is that more students become proficient and reach the finish line. The disadvantage is that they may have less to say or to show once they get there. The disadvantage of the American way is that some students never finish the race. The advantage, however, is that some who do go "all the way" have very interesting and original things to say when they get there.1. F T T T F F2.1) race 2) race 3 ) proceed 4) explore things for themselves 5)proficient 6)interesting 7) original 8) less 9) finish the raceListening IIOnce Wealth and Poverty approached a merchant and introduced themselves as Goddesses. The merchant greeted both of them and said, "May I ask why you have come to my humble house" The Goddess of Wealth said, "We want you to judge between us who is the most beautiful."The merchant did not know what to say. He knew he was between the devil and the deep blue sea: If he said that Wealth was more beautiful than Poverty, Poverty would curse him. If he said that Poverty was more beautiful than Wealth, Wealth would abandon him. However, he became calm and said, "I have great respect for you both. Would you please do what I ask of you It is the only way I can judge properly." The Goddesses agreed. He said, "Mother Wealth, would you please walk towards my house Mother Poverty, Would you please walk away from my house This way I can see you both better, from near and far." The two Goddesses did what the merchant had asked them to do. Then the merchant confidently declared, "Mother Wealth! You appear most beautiful when you are nearest my house. Mother Poverty! You look most beautiful when you are farthest from my house." The Goddesses appreciated the wit and wisdom of the merchant. The Goddess of Wealth happily stayed in his house while the Goddess of Poverty cheerfully departed.Whenever we have a serious problem, if we look within and think calmly, a solution will come in answer to the problem.1. F T F F F2. 1. Why did the two Goddesses go to the merchant’s place C2. What would happen if the merchant declared the Goddess of Wealth to bemore beautiful than the Goddess of the Poverty B3. What did the merchant ask the Goddesses to do D4. What was the reaction of the Goddesses A5. What does the story tell us CListening IIIThere is an old and common saying in the United States that "There is nothing new under the sun." I thought of that today while reading an article in a magazine. The article tells about the growing number of people who are building earth-sheltered houses, which are partly underground. I had known about modern earth-sheltered houses, but I had never thought about their roofs before. Instead of having metal or tiles on the roofs, many of these houses now have living roofs. The wooden top of the house is covered with a special waterproof plastic material. On top of this there is soil, in which grass and flowers are planted. Such a roof can be very beautiful. But this really is not a new idea. When the early settlers came to the United States, they often made their houses by digging into the ground. Their roofs were made of wood, and then covered by large areas of soil with grass or turf. They were warm, though not always waterproof. People replaced these houses and roofs as soon as they could live in regular wooden homes with wooden or metal roofs. Now, 200 years later, some people think of this as a new idea. But I think, "There is nothing new under the sun."1. 1) partly underground 2) living 3 ) digging into the ground 4) grass waterproof2.Questions:1What does the speaker mean by saying "There is nothing new under the sun".2What makes the speaker think of "earth-sheltered houses".3What is a living roof.4How many years ago did the early settlers first build earth-sheltered houses.5 . Why did People replace these earth-sheltered houses with regular woodenonesKey: C D A B D Listening IVMa n: It is said that the first sandwich was made in 1762 by the Earl ofSandwich. He didn't want to take time away from his card games to eat, so he ordered his butler to make sandwiches instead.Wo man:Is that so Hey, look at this. The first beauty contest was held in Belgium in 1888. Why in Belgium of all placesMa n: Why not Oh, here's one I bet you're proud of. The electric chair wasused for the first time in 1890, in the United States. Yes, you're first to diagnose AIDS, too. The first recorded case was in New York.Wo man:Plus and minus signs were used in 1514 in Holland. Yeah, there was no way we could have guessed that one. And the equals sign, you'll be pleased to hear, was first used in Oxford, in 1557. You'd have thought they'd all have been invented at the same time.Ma n:Well, we both got these right. Coffee was in Arabia around 1,000 AD, and just before that, playing cards were invented in China.Wo man:Well, I got this one right. First diagram of a flying machine was drawn by Leonardo da Vinci, as I said, in 1492.Ma n: Yeah, but the first air flight wasn't made until 1903, and it was inthe United States.Wo man: But that wasn't the question, was it Also, England was also the firstto transmit television.Man:Garbage!

Andhere we are again, the first traffic lights were in London, in 1868.Ma n: But they didn't even have cars then, so why would they have neededtraffic lights1．D A A F C E A B B2．1)1762 2)1888/Belgium 3)1890/the United States 4)New York 5)1514/Holland 1557 6) 1492/1903 7) 1925/1868Part 4 Further ListeningListening IJuan comes up to the Mexican border on his bicycle. He's got two large bags overhis shoulders. The guard stops him and says, "What's in the bags""Sand," answers Juan.The guard says, "We'll just see about that. Get off the bike." The guard takes the two bags and rips them apart; he empties them out and finds nothing in them but sand.He detains Juan overnight and has the sand analyzed, only to discover that there is nothing but pure sand in the bags.The guard releases Juan, puts the sand into new bags, hefts them onto the man's shoulders and lets him cross the border.A week later, the same thing happens. The guard asks, "What have you got""Sand," says Juan.The guard does his thorough examination and discovers that the bags contain nothing but sand. He gives the sand back to Juan, and Juan crosses the border on his bicycle.This sequence of events is repeated every week for three years. Finally, Juan doesn't show up one day and the guard meets him in a bar in Mexico."Hey, buddy," says the guard. "I know you are smuggling something. It's driving me crazy. It's all I think about. I can't sleep. Just between you and me, what are you smuggling"Juan sips his beer and says, "Bicycles."1) border 2) rips 3) overnight 4) analyzed 5) release 6) cross7) weekly 8 ) thorough 9) show up 10) bicyclesListening IIPottery has been found in the remains of every ancient civilization. The oldest known piece of pottery was found in China and dates back to 7,900 BC. That's almost 10,000 years ago!The first pots were large bowls, formed by taking a lump of clay and making a bowl shape. Pottery doesn't just include pots, but anything made from clay that can hold things, such as jugs, vases and cups. Pottery was used to hold water, milk, seeds and grains.Later, people learned to mix different clays together to make stronger pottery and to put the pottery in a fire oven so that the clay would harden faster. The potter's wheel was invented in China around 3100 BC. The wheel spins clay like a top. It allows people to make pottery much more quickly and makes shapes that were perfectly symmetrical—bowls that were really round, rather than lumpy or uneven. Pottery is not only considered one of the first inventions but also one of the first art forms. Most types of pottery have been painted with figures or designs; some even tell a story!1.

The characters on this show are mainly puppets, and probably the most loved of the puppets is a gigantic yellow bird called "Big Bird".Caroll Spinney has played Big Bird all the years of Big Bird's existence on American television. Spinney's love of puppets and his own creativity led him to this career. When he was five years old, he saw his first puppet show. He loved the show and never forgot it. When he was seven he bought a used monkey puppet for five cents. His mother had made him a stuffed snake from green material, so he got the idea of making his own puppet show. He made a stage from wooden orange boxes and his mother's old curtains. He charged 2 cents for admission and earned 32 cents for his first performance.Spinney's family liked his creativity and encouraged him to do more. For Christmas when he was nine, his older brother made him a better puppet theater andhis mother secretly sewed eight colorful puppets for him. Spinney later wrote, "The more I gave shows, the more I felt the power that one has when performing. All these people would sit in a room and listen to everything I said. I did all the character voices: little girl voices, an old lady voice, and a ghost voice. The audience listened and clapped at the end, and also paid me to do it. What could be a better way to make a living than to perform I knew that I would wind up in the world of entertainment."Spinney continued giving puppet shows. When he decided to go to art school, puppet shows helped him pay for his tuition. Even when he was in the army, he managed to continue giving puppet shows. He knew he wanted to do this as his life's work and that he wanted his audience to be children. When he was given the opportunity to create the character of Big Bird on "Sesame Street", he accepted it and over the years has made Big Bird one of the most beloved characters on American television.1-5 T T T F F6-10 T T T F F。

And my primary responsibilities were to maintain the company‟s ties with the existing customers and try to find new cargo sources.M: And what did that experience teach you?W: I learned that communication skills are extremely important.

An American applied for the same job. Quite by coincidence, the two amplifications, and were asked to take the same test by the manager of the Human Resource Department. Upon completion of the test, both men missed only one of the questions. The manager went to Murphy and said, “Thank you for your interest, but we‟ve decided to give the American the job.”Bewildered by the manager‟s decision, Murphy asked, “Why would you be doing that? We both got nine questions correct. This being Ireland and me being Irish, I should get the job!”The manger answered calmly, “We have made our decisions based on the correct answers, but on the question you missed.”Unconvinced and somewhat indignant, Murphy question, “And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?”The manager‟s maser took him by surprise, “Simple, on QuestionNo.5, the American put down …I don‟t‟ know‟, and you put down …Neither do I‟.”Keys: FTTTFTFor Reference1.He made his decision based on the wrong answers to the one question one missed,rather than on the correct answers.2.By writing “Neither do I”, it seems that Murphy copied the American answer onthe test.T ask3: A Guide to a Successful Job InterviewScriptThere are times that you will be asked a hard question during a job interview.

Y ou can split your answer into two, the professional and the personal level. Both are important, and how you move from one to the other depends on what you have to say. Y ou can give a brief summary of your life, professional and personal, with less emphasis on the early past, and more emphasis on the present and the future.When asked “What are your weakness?”, don‟t say, “I don‟t have any.”Everyone has weakness, and it takes something positive like, “I haven‟t had a lot of exposure on the on-site work, but I‟m looking forward to being more involved in dealing with customers directly and learning their needs.”Another common question is: “What are your strengths?” Y ou should customize your answer to meet the position requirement. Keep in mind the things they asked for in the advertisement. Tell them your strengths, but also show them how they how they would apply to this job. To show how your strengths were valuable, use the “Why, where, when, how” to demonstrate and prove your strengths.1.What is the passage mainly concerned with?2.What does the speaker NOT mention as an answer to the question, “Why shouldwe choose you?”?3.What does the speaker say you should stress when introducing yourself?4.What does the speaker advice you NOT to say when asked, “What are yourweaknesses?”5.What should you say when asked about your strong points?Kes: 1C 2.C3.

Y ou see, ability for teamwork is usually valued.Susan: What kind of questions should I ask them?John: Y ou should ask them about the job requirements and about the company.

I hope he‟ll help us start a recruitment drive.Bill: Certainly. And it‟s a good time, too. A number of firms have been downsizing. Helen: Good.

So it‟s a good time for head-hunting.B: Good. That‟s why they call you headhunters.V. Let’s T alkScriptGood afternoon, everyone. The university‟s Career Office asked me to give a talk on the topic of how to prepare for job interviews. This is probably the most important aspect in securing a job. Here are some tips I believe to be useful.First, do some research are. Once you have this information, make a list of what skills or knowledge you have that would be valuable to them. Y ou cannot sell yourself to them if you don‟t know what it is you are selling.The next thing to consider is your physical appearance. Y ou have to dress right for job interviews. Don‟t wear anything too flashy; being neat and clean is more important than wearing the latest fashion. The aim is to look professional without overdoing it. Also, it is important that you feel comfortable. If you are not comfortable with a tie, it might be best not to wear one, unless the job requires you to dress this way. The last thing you want is to be worried about your appearance during the interview. It will only make you nervous, and you will quickly lose confidence.Mover over, you have to work out what you need to take with you: A copy of your CV, originals and copies of your qualification paper, copies of reference, samples of your work, if applicable, and anything else that they may want to see. Again, make sure everything is well organized and neatly presented. Don‟t take a pile of paperwork that you have to sift through for ten minutes to find something. That will give them the impression that you are disorganized. If you are well prepared, you‟re likely to have good luck.DiscussionSAMPLEA:After listening to the career officer‟s talk, I‟ve now realizes the importance of getting prepared for an interview.B:Quite true. First of all, we should never be late for an interview. If you‟re not punctual, they‟ll suspect that you‟ll be late for work in future.A:Before going to the interview, we had better pay attention to our dress. We must look professional without overdoing it. Careless clothes will lead them into thinking that you‟re likely to do your job carelessly.B: During the interview, it is impo rtant to look confident without being too pushy. It‟s necessary to maintain eye contact. This shows your interest in the conversation, and helps to maintain the communication between you and the interviewer.A: Many employers attach importance to the education you‟ve received. We need to highlight those courses especially valuable to the company.B: Book knowledge is not enough. We must show them we have practical experience in the field. Tell them about our internship, and emphasize the skills that are use ful in the job we‟re seeking.A:How clever you are! These days many students want to tell the prospective employer that they have a good command of English and have obtained a College English Test Band 4 Certificate.B: They‟re also eager to tell interviewer about their computer skills with PowerPoint, office automation, and so on. Students from non-key universities especially need certificates to shoe they‟ve acquired those skills before they can hope to compete against students from prestigious universities.A: Character is considered an important factor in contemporary society, where teamwork is a must.B: But too many students are saying more or less the same thing. If everybody says, “I‟m warm-hearted and cooperative, get along well with my classmates, and have good team spirit,” the boss will soon get fed up.A: Perhaps we should let the work we‟ve done shoe our character.B: Right on. Participation is important. If you can show them you‟re an important official of the Student Union of the university or the department, or you‟ve organized a singing competition and won an award, obviously you‟re a good team player.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingT ask1: The Role Memory Plays in Our LifeScriptY our resume, or CV in British English, has one mission and one mission only: to get you a job interview. Y our resume is usually the first impression an employer has of you. And as “you never get a second chance to make a first impression”, you…d better get it right firs time. Here‟re some suggestions that may be of use in preparing a resume. First, use a design that demands attention. Employers don‟t have time to read through each of your job descriptions to know if you have the skills they need. The design of your resume must do it for them. Y our resume should be concise, well-organized and relevant. It should emphasized the most important and relevant points about your experience, skills and education.Second, put important information first. List important information at the beginning of your job descriptions. Put statements in your resume in order of importance and relevance to the job you want. A powerful statement with exact numbers influences every statement that follows.Third, target the job. Y ou will have more success if you adjust your resume and cover letter for the specific skills another job. In other words, you need to “re-package”yourself. In that way, an employer will see immediately that you correspond to the job description. It is not dishonest to “re-package”yourself. Y ou are simply pressing yourself and your skills in the best light for a particular employer. This will help you to get more interviews and allow you to apply for a wider range o jobs.1.Why does the speaker say the resume is important?2.According to the passage, why should you emphasize the most important pointabout yourself?3.Where does the speaker advise putting the important information in your jobdescription?4.How many resumes would the speaker advise you to write if you applied for threejobs?5. Which of the following makes a good title for the passage?Keys: 1.C 2.A 3.A 4.C 5.BT ask 2: Two Essential Factors in an InterviewScriptWhen applying for a job, especially a job you really want. It‟s not usually to feel nervous and anxious. Sometimes it‟s this anxiety, not our qualifications, that keeps us from obtaining our dream job.So you must overcome your nervousness and build up confidence. This often involvestwo factors: one mental and the other physica l. Mentally, it‟s important to prepare yourself for the interview without obsessing over it. Remember, it might be your dream job, but it won‟t be the end of the world if you don‟t get it. Tell yourself that the company would be lucky to get you; and if they choose someone else, it will be their loss. In essence, you need to build your self-confidence.Y our ability to answer all questions without hesitation will certainly impress the interviewer.Now that you are mentally ready for any question that might be thrown your way, it‟s time to work on your physical presentation. No matter what position you are applying for, your physical appearance at the interview will be a big factor in the final determination.It‟s always a good idea to wear a suit; it doesn‟t have to be a designer suit, but something plain and conservative. Do not dress too informally. For example, don‟t wear a red fashionable jacket for your interview. Make sure, too, that it is clean and pressed. This may seem like common sense, but you‟d be surprised how careless some applicants are. While it‟s not necessary to visit the beauty salon before your interview, make sure that your nail are well-manicured, and your hair is styled carefully and neatly.T ask3: An Interview That Upsets the BossScriptJohn was in a terrible accident at work and lost both of his ears. Since he was permanently disfigured, he settled with the company for a fairly large compensation and decided to invest the money in a small but growing telecom business. After weeks of negotiations, he bought the company. Then he realized that he knew nothing about running such a business and quickly set out to hire someone who could do that for him.So he set up three job interviewers. The first guy was great. He knew everything the company needed and was very interesting. At the end of the interview, John asked him, ”Do you notice anything different about me?”And the gentleman answered, “Why yes, I couldn‟t help notice you have no ears.”John got very upset and threw him out.The second interview was with a woman, and she was even better than the first guy. He asked her the same question, “Do you notice anything usually about me?” and the she replied, “Well, you have no ears.” Again John got furious and tossed her out.The third and the last interview was the best of all three. It was with a very young man who was fresh out of college. He was smart and handsome. And he seemed to be a better businessman than the firs two put together. John was anxious to employ him, but asked him the same question, “Do you notice anything different about me?”And to his surprise, the young man answered, “Y es, you wear contact lenses.”John was amazed, and said, “What an incredibly observant young man! How in the world did you know that?”The young man laughed and replied, “Well, it‟s pretty hard to wear glasses with no ears!”For Reference1.He lost both of his ears.2.Because he realized that he knew nothing about running the business after hebought it.3.Because the interviewee said he noticed that John had no ears, and John got upset.4.He said he noticed John wore contact lenses.5.He thought it was pretty difficult to wear glasses with no ears.News ReportA Galaxy of Film Prize WinnersScriptThe European Film Awards—First Hollywood, then Cannes, and now Pairs?The European Film Awards ceremony was held in Pairs in early December, honorin g the best in European and world films.Lars von Trier‟s Dancer in the Dark was the overall winner of the evening, receiving awards for the best European film and best actress—Bjork..The audiences was disappointed, however, as neither von Trier, Bjork, nor the Oscar-winning Italian director Roberto Benigni showed up to accept awards.Still, other prize winners did come. The Irish actor Richard Harris, who was given an award for lifetime achievement, gave a humorous thank-you speech that was the high point of the evening.Another internationally known actor, Jean Reno, also gave an enthusiastic thank-you speech. The French actor received an award for European achievement in world cinema, for his international firm career.Other VIPs from around Europe also attended. But most of the prizes at the ceremony, which people have been calling“the European Oscars”, went to French films.There was one international film award, which went to a French-Hong Kong co-production, Wong Karwai‟s In the Mood for Love.。

Also (S2) known as a virtual business, the SOHO has not evolved beyond the idea of an (S3) independent business person who has a few support stall members. Business (S4)enterprises that are large are often called Small and Medium-sized Enterprises.Before the19th century and the (S5)spread of the industrial revolution around the globe, (S6) nearly all offices were small offices or home offices, with only a few exceptions. Most businesses were small, and (S7) so was the amount of paperwork that went with their business activities.At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st, the term ―Small or Home Office‖ and (S8) the acronym SOHO have been used t to great extent by companies that sell products to large number of small business with a small-sized office.Some products are often designed specifically for the SOHO market. (S9) Many books are written and sold specifically for this type of office to tell people how to equip a small office.Nowadays many consultants, lawyers, and real estate agents in small and medium- sized towns operate from such home offices.(S10) In the field of software development, engineers often have to work 20 hours or more at a stretch, so they can hardly adapt to normal office hours. They often work in small offices to have more freedom.Task3: The Role of Job DescriptionsScriptPeople who don’t understand what their employers expect them to do may be headed for one of the most common and yet most avoidable career traps. If your boss doesn’t take the time to explain properly what you are expected to do in your position. Then keep asking questions until you know precisely what it is. Don’t limit your questions to matter of everyday routine. Lee Colby, a management consultant based in Minneapolis, offers his advice. He says you can ask more significant questions like,―What a re our departmwnt’s goals? How does my work fit in with the overall objective of the company?‖That method helped Lisa James, an assistant manager at an electronics company. When James was transferred to a new department seven years ago, she found herself not only working for the manager of quality control, but assisting three other managers. Because the job was both demanding and ill-defined, James had to put in ten-hour days as well as take work home. To clarify what was expected of her and what she hoped to get from her job in terms of career department, she drafted a list of goals in collaboration with her principal boss. The list proved so well though out that her boss used it as the basis for her annual performance reviews. Shortly afterwards, she was given a raise for her efficient work.If your boss is vague about what your goals should be, try this technique suggested by Atkin Simon, director of a Boston-based management-consulting firm: Read your position description, which most large firms provide, and identify the two or three most important tasks it mentions. Then meet with your boss, point out the tasks you’ve chosen and ask if they accurately reflect what your boss considers important.1.If your boss does not describe your job responsibility clearly, what can you do?2.What kind of questions can you ask about your job?3.When James was transferred to a new department, how many managers did shehave to work for?4.With whom did James draft a list of goals?5. How was her list of goals received?Keys: 1B 2.D3. D 4.A 5.CFor ReferenceRead your position description and identify the two or three most important tasks it mentions. Then meet with your boss, point out the tasks you’ve chosen and ask if they accurately reflect what your boss considers important.IV.

Jenny: Then could you come after five on Thursday?Dick: Certainly, Can we make it five thirty then?Jenny: Five thirty’s perfect. Linda will be waiting for you at five thirty on Thursday. Dick: Ok. Great! Thanks. Bye.V. Let’s TalkScriptLillian: Mr. Baxter, you have worked in the company for five years, and you manage everything here smoothly, like a clock. Could you tell us the secret of your successful career?Baxter: Just as the golden rule of real estate is location, location, location, the golden rule of work is relationships, relationships, relationships. Unfortunately, many workers focus so hard on the job at hand that they never develop useful relationships with people in other parts of their organization. Worse, when they do interact with colleagues in other departments, they may not treat then with respect.Lillian: Could you give more details?Baxter: Let’s take Wendy as an example. She switched jobs several months ago in the company. In her first position, as a marketing manager, she frequently found herself in conflict with the financial department over her staff’s expenses. Her argument for more funds usually ended in vain.Then in her new job as training administrator, she wanted to launch an on-the-job training project. She needed the financial department to support her request for a budget. How did she convince them this time?Although the financial department’s offices were located in another city, Wendy decided to visit them in their offices and try to establish closer relationships. She believed she must first of all understand their mission and their own training needs. Then she found an ally in the company’s chief financial officer, who saw how her group could help develop his staff. So the two forged a long-tern=m alliance, which led to a training program so successful that it has since been picked up by the company’s offices in Germany and Japan.Winning allies throughout your organization has an additional benefit. These days, it’s far too risky to expect your work to speak for itself. Having allies who speak well of you increases your reputation with the top management.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: A small misstep can become a big career trap.ScriptGeorge Adams, a market researcher at a Midwestern firm, finally printed his marketing report. After months of research, hundreds of surveys, and several boring drafts, his report was complete, and just in time. He was going away for the weekend, and he wanted to relax knowing his report was a success. He carefully proofread his document and then delivered copies to all the executives on his distribution list. When he returned to his desk, he discovered his boss, the department manager, was livid. At first he did not realize he had accidentally gone over his head. Anyway, she had given him the contribution list in the first place. So he thought he was just following orders. But the boss was furious that she hadn’t seen the final document. The boss asked Adams to get back the copies, but it was too late. When Adams got to the CEO’s office, he was already reading the report.Adams had felt friction with his boss before. She was overbearing and tended to find fault with his work after he’d broken his back to meet deadlines. In this instance, however, he realized he had made a serious error. His boss was extremely upset, for his mistake made her look as though she wasn’t in control of her department.From the boss’s point of view, Adams was usurping her authority. The result was simple and natural: Adams left his job soon afterward.Adams’s story illustrates a fundamental truth about the workplace: small, seemingly innocent missteps can sometimes become a big career trap.1.To whom did Adams deliver copies of the report?2.What did Adams discover after he delivered the copies?3.What happened when the boss asked Adams to get back the copies of the report?4.According to the passage, why was his boss extremely upset?5. What conclusion can we draw from the passage?Keys: 1.B 2.B 3.C 4.A 5.CTask 2: The boss is angry!ScriptSam: Tell me: Does this place look like a nursing home?Sally: No. Why?Sam: Do I look like a male nurse?Sally: Not at all.Sam: Then why do my employees act as though this were a nursing home instead of a work place?Sally: You’re obviously upset. What’s wrong? Tell me.Sam: You’re right. I’m upset about a lot of things.Sally: Can you tell me what the problems are?Sam: First of all I’m upset because so many of the staff have been showing up late for work.Sally: It’s true. A lot of people have been coming in late. They probably think you don’t mind. You know there’s a pretty relaxed atmosphere here.Sam: Maybe it’s because I hang out with a lot of them outside the office.Sally: They must see you more as a buddy than a boss. It’s because you’re so friendly. Sam: You’re right. They don’t view me as an authority figure anymore. I’m afraid they don’t respect me as a bossSally: So what are you going to do about it?Sam: I’m going to change. No more Mr. Nice Guy. I’m going to start cracking the whip.Sally: When do you want this change to take place?Sam: Starting today, I’m going to lay down the law. From now on, everyone in the company must follow regulations to the latter.Sally: I’ll post a notice as soon as possible. What should it say?Sam: No more punching in late. No more clocking out early. No more calling in sick without a goof reason or without a doctor’s note.Sally: Anything else?Sam: No more personal phone calls or e-mails on company time!Sally: All right, I’ll get right on it!Keys: FTFTFTask3: Three EnvelopesScriptAfter a high –level firing at Supertech, the top executives gathered for lunch to welcome the new Chief Executive Officer, Carl Martin, and say good-bye to the departing CEO, Dick Jackson.Lunch was pretty well over when Jackson took his replacement aside and said: ―Carl, it’s a jungle out there in the business world. If we graduate of Harvard Business School don’t stick up for one anther, who will? Nobody, that’s who.‖Jackson explained that a tradition the company’s CEOs had. The departing CEO left three numbered envelopes for the new CEO. He handed Martin three envelopes. ―Open one if there’s a problem you can’t solve.‖Things went smoothly for Martin at first, but six months later sales took a downturn, and he was catching a lot of heat. At his wit’s end, he remembered the envelopes. He took from his desk the first envelope. The message read, ―Blame your predecessor.‖Martin held a press conference and tactfully laid the blame at the feet of the previous CEO. The press—and Wall Street—reacted positively, sales picked up, and the problem was soon behind him.A year later, the company was again experiencing a dip in sales, combined with serious product problems. The CEO opened the second envelope. The message read, ―Recognize.‖This he did, and the company quickly rebounded.After several consecutive profitable quarters, the company once again fell on difficult times. The CEO went to his office, closed the door and opened the third envelope. The meager read, ―Prepare three envelopes.‖For Reference1.They gathered for lunch to welcome the new Chief Executive Officer, Carl Martin,and say good-bye to the departing CEO, Dick Jackson.2.The departing CEO left three numbered envelopes for the new CEO3.The message read, ―Blame your predecessor.‖So, the new CEO held a pressconference and tactfully laid the blame at the feet of the previous CEO.4.The message read, ―Recognize.‖ The new CEO did it, and the company quicklyrebounded.5. The meager said, ―Prepare three envelopes.‖ It implied that it was time for Martin to leave and give three similar envelopes to the next CEO.News ReportA Wearable TranslatorScriptThe inability to communicate in a foreign language is a problem that many international travelers face. But now, a Minnesota company is developing a system that would make this a problem of the past.Minneapolis-based Via is the company behind the ―Mobile Language Translation System‖, or MLTS. But they are not the only company trying to develop real-time computer translation. IBM is promoting a new high-speed text translation system, and NEC is working on software that provides rapid voice translations from English to Japanese and vice versa.But Via CEO Ed McConaghay says that the biggest difficulty in developing MLTS hs been to combine existing technology with bidirectional capability and portable packaging.[SOUND BITE]A translator demonstrates just how MLTS works.The translations take about five seconds and are not always perfect. However, the text translation on the screen can help users get the general idea of a conversation. [SOUND BITE]In the future, MLTS may be able to assist military personnel in communicating with foreign language speakers in the field.This system may also be of help to border patrol officers, airport personnel, and local law enforcement.Eventually, though, the device will be available to travelers or anyone in the general public who would like to communicate with a foreign friend.。

Water Problems1Task One: Water Supply Suspension in Taizhou, Zhejiang Meanwhile continuous rain has lifted reservoirs’ water level in South China’s Taizhou, Zhejiang Province. Most reservoirs, including the largest Changtan reservoirof Taizhou, passed the alarm level.High water pressure burst a pipeline on Sunday which caused a water supply suspension in Taizhou. The water shortage was resolved Tuesday afternoon but the crisis is still causing concern for local citizens.Last Sunday night, a main water supply pipeline at the Changtan Reservoir burst. 7000 cubic meters of water was wasted hourly. The water supply in many areas was suspended.(Yan Chuanhua, Head of Changtan reservoir)“Changtan reservoir’s water line has reached nearly 35 meters, which surpa ssesthe alarm line. The pipelines have been used for more than 15 years. Now we are trying to replace the broken pipeline as soon as possible.”After the pipeline burst, rescue teams made great efforts to make a replacement. Meanwhile, water supply downtown was severed. More than 300 thousand people lacked drinking water. The local government adopted various methods to guarantee people’s basic requirements.Taizhou firehouse sent out fire engine filled with clean water to communities and hospitals.Officials dispatched water 4 to 5 times a day.Schools took measures to tackle water shortages. The Headmaster of the Huangyan Experimental Middle School says they started using their back-up water facility right after the water suspension.(Kong Qingzhou, Huangyan Experimental Middle School)“I asked all teachers to tell their students to save water as much as possible.”2 In Jiufeng Park, a one thousand year old well serviced hundreds of people. A sense of urgency overwhelmed the crowd as people competed with their barrels, buckets and water bottles for the precious water.(Mrs. Zhao, Citizen)“In the past only 10 people get water from here.”Older people are going to the front of the line when it comes to water. This lady surnamed Wang, is in her 70s, and in only 2 hours’ time she was able to get a whole tricycle of water.(Lady Wang)I bring all the barrels in my home to here to get the water.Luckily the crisis was over quickly. On Tuesday afternoon the broken pipeline was replaced and the water supply returned to normal.Task Two: Water Pollution in China AlarmingThe theme of China’s Water Week Campaign is to secure sustainable development through a strict water management system. Water pollution in China poses a huge threat to the development of a sustainable water management.Statistics of a joint report from several Chinese universities show more than one third of the country’s industrial waste water flows directly into rivers and lakes.The water environment in most cities around the country is declining.An official report from the Ministry of Environmental Protection shows amongthe investigated 131 rivers that flow through cities, 36 are severely contaminated, and nearly 60 others polluted.Since the Songhua River benzene pollution incident in 2005, over 140 pollution cases have been reported.The Yellow River, an important water resource for North China, is suffering from serious pollution. Nearly 40 percent of its mainstream has been severely affected.The country’s longest river, the Yangtze, is being thr eatened by a continuous flow of billions of tons of polluted water.And situation is no better for the Huaihe River, in which the country has investedmost. It remains a severely polluted river.3 Water pollution has resulted in enormous economic losses. Experts point out that water pollution is a joint result of human factors, society and economic development. Task Three: Agricultural Pollution in FocusAgricultural pollution is another feature of the first national census on pollution sources. Rather than m any people’s impression, waste water from agriculture and people’s daily lives greatly exceeds the amount of polluted water produced by urban factories and industries.Untreated waste water running into the river. This has become a common sight in China’s large rural areas.As many counties focus much on agricultural production, efforts on environmental protection have long been ignored.Many regions lack basic waste disposal systems, and facilities to treat polluted water.But the long-term threat is highlighted by the newly released national census on pollution sources. It shows that more than 80% of the country’s water pollution comes from agricultural production and people’s daily lives. This means water pollution in rural areas is much worse than in urban areas. In terms of chemical pollutants such as nitrogen the same picture.Much of the agricultural pollution comes from farms. Plastic materials used for greenhouses are not biodegradable ( 生物所能分解的). And booming rural enterprises are also devastating the fragile environment. Mine exploration triggered a number of pollution and poisoning cases last year.Environmental protection authorities are determined to pay more attention to rural pollution. (Zhuang Guotai, Official of Ministry of Environmental Protection) “We should not only focus on environmental problems in the cities and urban industries, but we also need to focus more on rural environmental problems.”The central government has set up a special fund for environmental protection in rural areas. More than 4.5 billion yuan is expected to be spent this year, to deal with rural pollution, and provide technical support.Some villages in affluent ( 富裕的) provinces have introduced environmentalfacilities and methods. Farmers in this Zhejiang village are using flush toilets. Waste4 water flows to a local water purification center for recycling. Farmers are learning to classify their garbage.(A farmer)“I put all the garbage from the kitchen in one pack, and put plastic bottles in another pack for recycling.”More effort is needed to set up a complete waste disposal system. And it could bea long term task to improve the habits of hundreds of million farmers.What’s Wrong with the ClimateIn the summer of 2007, the Huai River valley experienced its heaviest floodingin over fifty years. The Anhui Flood Control Headquarters opened 9 flood diversion and storage areas in order to protect the 1.2 million people living along the river’s banks.The Ni River is one of the diversion rivers 分流河道；改道河流；导流for the Huai River. Usually, water flows from the Ni into the Huai. When the Huai is diverting flood water, the sluice gate 水闸leaving from the Ni to the Huai is closed. Thus, water flows from the Huai to the Ni. Liulong Village, located next to the Ni River becomes an indirect diversion area.After the heavy rain on July 7 and 8, Liulong Village was like a pot full of water.The flood water came so rapidly that the villagers could only take what they could carry as they were evacuated.In temporary tents, the villagers tried to continue as normally as possible.The village entrance is a dividing line between homes and the refugee tent. The villagers’ flooded homes are inside this line. Every day, some people row a small boatto see whether their houses are still there. Mr. Li went every 2 or 3 days. At this timethe streets have become streams, and familiar entrances of their courtyards are now docks.Villagers are helpless in the face of flooding. They never imagined that extremeclimatic events caused by global warming would make them homeless.5 In the summer of 2007, villagers beside Dongting Lake weren’t victims of floods, but something just as destructive hit them. Beginning in late June, they found their rice fields were infested with rats. Stretching a long rope across the field, they were able to drive out large numbers of rats.In the peanut field, the plants above ground looked fine, but once you pulled onthe stalk, all the peanuts at the roots had been eaten. Water melon, pumpkin, sugar cane and corn crops had all been destroyed, including even the lotus seeds grown in water. The rats also destroyed the roots of the willow trees.The rats are reed 芦苇voles 野鼠，鼹鼠，called water mice by the locals. They live in soft soil and lake beaches. In recent years, the Dongting Lake area received little rain, and lake sides were high and dry for much more time than before. The 700,000 acres of beach area around the lake became a suitable home for the rat population.But in the middle of 2007, heavy rainstorms hit the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and the Dongting Lake beaches were flooded once again. The rats were forcedto move out.A war between man and rodent ( 啮齿类动物) broke out.They used every method available including acctacking the rats, trying to flood them out, digging and poisoning them. Man was finally victorious. But the villagers were not sure if the rats would return. Experts warned people that there were still rats remaining on the floating trees and weeds. Extreme weather may trigger a chain reaction.When one area is hit by floods, another place has a drought. Tongjiang City atthe junction of the Songhua and Heilongjiang Rivers was such a site. 280,000 out of a total of 300,000 acres of crops dried up. In Chenzhou, Hunan, rice fields were punched to the point of cracking.Jiangxi Province was also experiencing a serious drought. The farmers there set their hopes on drought resistant chemicals and waited for rain. But the rain brought by monsoons had already gone. Could it rain again? However, the typhoons in 2007 didn’t bring rain but disasters instead.In Fuzhou, the streets are flooded and violent wind storms are destroying6 everything in sight. In Zhejiang, an 8 kilometer long and 800 meter-wide tornado toured through Longgang Township, and destroyed 156 houses. Finally, typhoon Sepat swept over seven provinces in the south, and caused a loss of 10 billion RMB.But, a later typhoon was no less ferocious. On October 6, the super typhoon Krosa entered the Taiwan Straits at a speed of 15 kilometers per second. It hit Taiwan twice then landed the third time at the junction of Zhejiang and Fujian bringing torrential rains. In Cangnan County, Zhejiang Province, hundreds of people were stranded by floods. It took over 3 hours for soldiers to evacuate the victims. Torrential rains hit Fuzhou, Fujian and Lianjiang. In Daguangban District of Liangjiang,17million acres of reclaimed land were flooded again.The growing number of extreme climate events can be ascribed to global warming, and the ultimate responsibility rests squarely with us. By wastefully burning fuels, we’re sending more and more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. If we’re everto slow, and perhaps even reverse climate change, we must conserve energy and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. That’s all for Nature and Science on CCTV international. I’m Dang Bing, by for now.练习答案Unit Four Water ProblemsTask One: Water supply suspension in Taizhou, Zhejiang1. Multiple Choices1) C 2) C 3) B 4) B 5) A2.

The scale of the resulting deaths or property damage depends on the human ability to resist the disasters.Sometimes two seemingly different disasters may be related to each other. For example, an undersea earthquake may result in a tsunami. While there is a long dry spell in one area, there may be a great flood in another.A drought is a long-lasting weather pattern consisting of dry conditions with very little or no precipitation. During this period, food and water supplies can run low, and other conditions, such as famine, can occur. Droughts can last for several years and are particularly damaging in areas in which the residents depend on agriculture for survival.A flood follows too much rain or water in a location, and could be the result of many different conditions. Floods can be caused by heavy rainfall from a storm, including thunderstorms, rapid melting of large amounts of snow, or rivers which swell from too much precipitation upstream, causing widespread damage to areas downstream. Another possible cause of floods is the bursting of man-made dams.Unit 3 V 1Disaster has struck inHaiti. An earthquake of huge proportions erupted in theCaribbeanisland—one of the poorest communities in the West. Buildings, which were badly built, tumbled, burying thousands of people in their own homes.Haitiis a poor country with few emergency services to help. The islanders had to use their bare hands to search for their families. They waited forteams from overseas countries likeBritainand theUnited Statesto bring equipment and manpower to help rescue any survivors they could find.It's feared that more than 100,000 people have died. One school friend lies injured on the pavement. Another voices her sorrow. The historic cathedral was badly damaged; and at the presidential palace, the roof collapsed.The islanders here know about earthquakes.Haitilies in an area where there are frequent tremors and also tropical storms. But last week's earthquake registered seven on the Richter scale—almost as high as the scale can go. It was the biggest for 200 years. It happened eight kilometers beneath the Earth's crust—that's quite close to the surface, so the tremors were really strong.There were also lots of aftershocks—tremors that happen after the main earthquake. Those aftershocks can also cause damage as buildings collapse further and trap people who might have survived the first disaster.The British government has promised 20 million pounds of aid to helpHaiti, and many people have also made donations.Now the concern is to prevent disease hitting areas without clean water or enough medical help.Unit 3 VI 21.Since the company was composed entirely of men over 65, there was doubt that they would be of any assistance. But the farmer called the company anyway because the fire proved to be more than the small town fire department could handle, and there was no other help available.2. The truck drove straight toward the fire and, instead of stopping in front of the fire, drove right into the middle of the flames.3. After an hour of intense fighting, they had extinguished the fire.4. He presented the volunteer fire company with a check for $10,000.5. The captain said, "The first thing we're going to do is to get the brakes fixed on that stupid fire truck." That suggests that they drove right into the middle of the flames because of useless brakes rather than bravery.Unit 3 viewing and speaking 1V oice-over: Trapped indoors by raging floodwaters for more than 24 hours, a 91-year-old woman is rescued by firemen and carried to safety. It's the worst flooding in Coggeshall and the surrounding villages inEssexin more than 50 years, and it's taken residents here by surprise. Elderly woman: I came from home, because my place was flooded with burst pipes, so I came down to my son's to be safe and got this. So, I just wonder what I've done wrong to get all this!V oice-over: Emergency crews have been evacuating people like this woman and her baby since the banks of the River Blackwater burst this weekend. Parts of easternEnglandwere hit yesterday after a month's worth of rain fell here in a day. People told me there was no time to save their belongings.Woman: By the time the high tide had come up at quarter to four in the morning, the water was up to the piano keys. It'd come right up here, and I mean you can just see on the, on the, on the furniture where the water had come up to.V oice-over: There was flooding in Cambridgeshire too. Staff were mopping up water at this doctor's surgery in Borne, trying to get the facilities back to normal.Doctor: It's wrecked all the computer system. It's managed unfortunately to get to a few of the old notes. It's also affected all our drugs that are here, including the flu jabs we were hoping to run our flu jabs sessions.V oice-over: A few roads inEssexin Cambridgeshire remain virtually impassable, but water levels are dropping. The question for residents here now is what will happen if they get even more heavy rain in the next few days.Unit 4Lead inc d a e h f i g bBasic listeningCBABDListening inTask l CBDAATask 2Relationshipsmarketing managerin conflict withexpensesended in vaintraining administrator visitedestablish closer relationships long-termpicked upTask 3 CDDCALet's talkTask 116featuresbriefeightpaperguidelinesinterviewstreatmentcome backDeadlinesmeetguidancescaryFurther listening >Task 1 DBCACTask 2 BABABTask 31.

Could you tell us the secrets of your successful career?Baxter: Just as the golden rule of real estate is "location, location, location", the golden rule of work is "relationships, relationships, relationships". Unfortunately, many workers focus so hard on the job at hand that they never develop useful relationships with people in other parts of their organization. Worse, when they do interact with colleaguesin other departments, they may not treat them with respect.Lillian: Could you give me more details?Baxter: Let's take Wendy as an example. She switched jobs several months ago in the company. In her first position, as a marketing manager, she frequently found herself in conflict with the financial department over her staff's expenses. Her argument for more funds usually ended in vain. Then in her new job as training administrator, she wanted to launch an on-the-job training project. She needed the financial department to support her request for a budget. How did she convince them this time? Although the financial department's offices were located in another city, Wendy decided to visited them in their offices and try to establish closer relationships. She believed she must first of all understand their mission and their own training needs. Then she found an ally in the company's chief financial officer, who saw how her group could help develop his staff. Thus the two forged a long-term alliance, which led to a training program so successful that it has since been picked up by the company's offices inGermanyandJapan. Winning allies throughout your organization has an additional benefit. These days, it's far too risky to expect your work to speak for itself. Having allies who speak well of you increases your reputation with the top management.Unit 4 let’s tallk 1Ayesha: In the newsroom you have about 16 reporters. The news reporters sit in one part of the room, and you have features on the other side of the room. I'm just going to see Kev, he's my news editor and he's gonna do a brief, basically brief me on a story that's happening later on. When I walk into my newsroom I don't know what to expect. You start at eight but you don't know how long that's gonna go on for. Hello. Kevin: Hi Ayesha. So we're really looking for a featurey sort of piece for tomorrow's paper.Ayesha: FrenchayHospital, which is one of our hospitals inBristol. They're celebrating their 10 years of this head injury unit, and we've been invited up. We're gonna obviously cover and take pictures, and I'm gonna get to speak to people. So he was really giving me guidelines.Kevin: You know when you're doing your interviews, speak to people in some detail about, you know, how they were injured in the first place, but then the treatment they've gone through. OK?Ayesha: Yeah. Excellent! Thank you!Well, I've just started writing up for my next, and just basically from the day. I've got to get something through, I think, by about four. Sometimes I come back and I've got so much going on in my hands. So I'm just tryingto, sort of, just work it through. Deadlines are very stressful. But you have to meet them because it's important; it's part of what newspaper journalism is all about. You get used to it by getting the guidance, managing your time, but it's still scary. OK. It's all done. OK. This is theBristolfinal. If I have a look at page 14, there we are, and that's my story. Exciting!Unit 4 VI 3They gathered for lunch to welcome the new Chief Executive Officer, Carl Martin, and say goodbye to the departing CEO, Dick Jackson.The departing CEO left three numbered envelopes for the new CEO.The message read, "Blame your predecessor." So, the new CEO held a press conference and tactfully laid the blame at the feet of the previous CEO.The message read, "Reorganize." The new CEO did it, and the company quickly rebounded.The message said, "Prepare three envelopes." It implied that it was time for Carl to leave and give three similar envelopes to the next CEO.Unit 4 viewing and speaking task 1You don't come into journalism for the money. When you start, you're sort of earning, I think, about 150 to 180 pounds a week, which really isn't very much to live on. But then as you move up, you get more, so you're looking to get14,000 ayear, 15,000,16,000 ayear. And you know you're working really long hours, and it's hard work.OK thanks, bye.Waiting for phone calls and waiting for people to get back to you is really frustrating. Like today I had other things to keep me going and I was doing other things, but you know I've got this thing over my head because I know I've got to get this quote and I've got to keep chasing it and then while you're working on other stories whether they're bigger or smaller ones you know. It's very frustrating because you just want to get this done and out of the way, but it just doesn't happen.Journalism is just a, is a great career to go into because (there's) so much you can do. So you can stay in newspapers, you can go into radio,television—there's just so much out there, and I guess at the stage where I am—sort of just starting out, just really looking at what there is and what I will enjoy doing more.In 10 years I think I'd like to be an editor of a section of a national paper either here or abroad, 20 years, launching my own paper.Journalism is just fantastic because you don't know what's happening on a day-to-day basis. You meet so many different people and it just puts you in such a privileged position. And I just love it. I just think it's great.Unit 6Basic listening CCADBListening inTask 1 CBADCTask 2terriblemisfortunereflectiondamagedheavenpickwashedSome people claim that the number is bad luck because 13 people sat down for the Last Supper before Jesus was crucifiedFriday the 13th of any month is considered especially bad or unlucky, and Friday the 13th of March is the worst of them allthey mean that every seven years a person undergoes a complete change in personalityTask 3falling stock marketseven more superstitiousmuch lessconstructive actionless luckyworkedmore satisfiedexamstrustrevisionlistening in task 2Are you worried because you have just broken a mirror? Some people believe that breaking a mirror is a terrible thing to do. They say it willbring you seven years of misfortune. The reason behind this belief stems from the old idea that a person's soul is in their reflection, so if you smash your mirror, your soul will be damaged too, dooming you to an early death, and not giving you entry to heaven. Is there any way to reverse this bad luck? Yes, if you very carefully pick up all the broken pieces of the mirror and throw them into a river or stream, then the bad luck will be "washed away".Of all numbers, 13 is the most associated with bad luck. Some people claim that the number is bad luck because 13 people sat down for the Last Supper before Jesus was crucified, and with this in mind few hosts will serve dinner with 13 at the table. And according to an ancient Norwegian tale, 12 gods had gathered for a feast when a 13th, Loki, entered. After the meal, Loki killed Baldr, who was the most beloved of all the gods.Friday the 13th of any month is considered especially bad or unlucky, and Friday the 13th of March is the worst of them all.The number seven also has some superstition connected to it. It is said that God created the world in seven days, and any association with the number is lucky. The seventh son of the seventh son is said to be the luckiest of men, and when people talk about the "seven-year itch" theymean that every seven years a person undergoes a complete change in personality.Unit 6 listening in task 3Thanks, perhaps, to falling stock markets and unrest in theMiddle East, Britons have become even more superstitious than usual, according to a report published today. "There has been a significant increase in superstition over the last month, possibly as a result of current economic and political uncertainties," stated Dr. Dick Armstrong. He launched an Internet survey of national superstition, and found it to be surprisingly high, even among those with a scientific background. Only one in ten of those surveyed claimed not to be superstitious at all. Three out of four people inBritainfeel the need to touch wood, and 65 percent cross their fingers.It is interesting to note that lucky people were much less superstitious and tended to take constructive action to improve their lives. Conversely, superstitious people tended to regard themselves as among the less lucky,worried about life, had a strong need for control, and could not tolerate ambiguity.The survey also revealed some unexpected beliefs. For example, one respondent could not stay in the bathroom once a toilet had been flushed.There was no evidence that superstitions ever worked, even when people were instructed to carry lucky charms for a week. They didn't feel any luckier or more satisfied with their lives at the end of that week than when they started.Armstrong attempted to explain this phenomenon: "When students are preparing for exams with a lucky charm, they may trust the charm, rather than doing some extra revision."falling stock marketseven more superstitiousmuch lessconstructive actionless luckyworkedmore satisfied examstrustrevisionLet's talk Task 1 mysteryinside out largestthree million outsideinnerhis theory used upthe base137-meter purposetall, narrow 100,000 or so radarFurther listening and speakingFurther listeningTask 1ABDDBTask 2AABBATask 31.

The scale of the resulting deaths or property damage depends on the human ability to resist the disasters.Sometimes two seemingly different disasters may be related to each other. For example, an undersea earthquake may result in a tsunami. While there is a long dry spell in one area, there may be a great flood in another.A drought is a long-lasting weather pattern consisting of dry conditions with very little or no precipitation. During this period, food and water supplies can run low, and other conditions, such as famine, can occur. Droughts can last for several years and are particularly damaging in areas in which the residents depend on agriculture for survival.A flood follows too much rain or water in a location, and could be the result of many different conditions. Floods can be caused by heavy rainfall from a storm, including thunderstorms, rapid melting of large amounts of snow, or rivers which swell from too much precipitation upstream, causing widespread damage to areas downstream. Another possible cause of floods is the bursting of man-made dams.Unit 3 V 1Disaster has struck inHaiti. An earthquake of huge proportions erupted in theCaribbeanisland —one of the poorest communities in the West. Buildings, which were badly built, tumbled, burying thousands of people in their own homes.Haitiis a poor country with few emergency services to help. The islanders had to use their bare hands to search for their families. They waited for teams from overseas countries likeBritainand theUnited Statesto bring equipment and manpower to help rescue any survivors they could find.It's feared that more than 100,000 people have died. One school friend lies injured on the pavement. Another voices her sorrow. The historic cathedral was badly damaged; and atthe presidential palace, the roof collapsed.The islanders here know about earthquakes.Haitilies in an area where there are frequent tremors and also tropical storms. But last week's earthquake registered seven on theRichter scale —almost as high as the scale can go. It was the biggest for 200 years. It happened eight kilometers beneath the Earth's crust —that's quite close to the surface, so the tremors were really strong.There were also lots of aftershocks —tremors that happen after the main earthquake. Those aftershocks can also cause damage as buildings collapse further and trap people who might have survived the first disaster.The British government has promised 20 million pounds of aid to helpHaiti, and manypeople have also made donations.Now the concern is to prevent disease hitting areas without clean water or enough medical help.Unit 3 VI 214.Since the company was composed entirely of men over 65, there was doubt that theywould be of any assistance.

It's the worst flooding in Coggeshall and the surrounding villages inEssexin more than 50 years, and it's taken residents here by surprise.Elderly woman: I came from home, because my place was flooded with burst pipes, so I came down to my son's to be safe and got this. So, I just wonder what I've done wrong to get all this!Voice-over: Emergency crews have been evacuating people like this woman and her baby since the banks of the River Blackwater burst this weekend. Parts of easternEnglandwerehit yesterday after a month's worth of rain fell here in a day. People told me there was no time to save their belongings.Woman: By the time the high tide had come up at quarter to four in the morning, the water was up to the piano keys. It'd come right up here, and I mean you can just see on the, on the, on the furniture where the water had come up to.Voice-over: There was flooding in Cambridgeshire too. Staff were mopping up water at this doctor's surgery in Borne, trying to get the facilities back to normal.Doctor: It's wrecked all the computer system. It's managed unfortunately to get to a fewof the old notes. It's also affected all our drugs that are here, including the flu jabs we were hoping to run our flu jabs sessions.Voice-over: A few roads inEssexin Cambridgeshire remain virtually impassable, but water levels are dropping.

Could you tell us the secrets of your successful career?Baxter: Just as the golden rule of real estate is "location, location, location", the golden rule of work is "relationships, relationships, relationships". Unfortunately, many workers focus so hard on the job at hand that they never develop useful relationships with people in other parts of their organization. Worse, when they do interact with colleagues in other departments, they may not treat them with respect.Lillian: Could you give me more details?Baxter: Let's take Wendy as an example. She switched jobs several months ago in the company. In her first position, as a marketing manager, she frequently found herself in conflict with the financial department over her staff's expenses. Her argument for more funds usually ended in vain. Then in her new job as training administrator, she wanted to launch an on-the-job training project. She needed the financial department to support her request for a budget. How did she convince them this time? Although the financial department's offices were located in another city, Wendy decided to visited them in their offices and try to establish closer relationships. She believed she must first of all understand their mission and their own training needs. Then she found an ally in the company's chief financial officer, who saw how her group could help develop his staff. Thus the two forgeda long-term alliance, which led to a training program so successful that it has since been picked up by the company's offices inGermanyandJapan. Winning allies throughout your organization has an additional benefit. These days, it's far too risky to expect your work to speak for itself. Having allies who speak well of you increases your reputation with the top management.Unit 4 let ’s tallk 1Ayesha: In the newsroom you have about 16 reporters.

He knew that his wife would not be strong enough to do the digging by herself, but that she could manage to do the planting; and he also knew that he did not have any friends or neighbors who would be willing to do the digging for him. So he wrote a letter to his wife which said, “Please do not dig the potato field. I hid the money and the gun there.”Ten days later he got a letter from his wife. It said, “I think somebody is rea ding your letters before they go out of the prison. Some policemen arrived here two days ago and dug up the whole potato field. What shall I do now?”The prisoner wrote back at once, “Plant the potatoes, of course.” (155 words)Exercise 1 (Online)Directions:Listen to the story and decide whether the following statements are true or false.

He hired a group of engineers to study the situation. They suggested two solutions: 1. adding more lifts of the same type;2. replacing the lifts with faster ones.The manager decided that both suggestions were too expensive. So he asked a psychologist to study the problem. The psychologist noticed that many people felt angry and impatient because they thought they had to wait too long for the lift. However, the psychologist found that they had to wait only a relatively short time. It occurred to him that the reason they felt angry and impatient was that they had nothing to do while they were waiting for the lifts. He suggested a simple, inexpensive solution to the manager. This was adopted and complaints stopped immediately. The solution was to place a large mirror next to the lifts.

They could have something to do while waiting for the lift and, of course, many people like to look at themselves in the mirror.2) Other possible solutions:a. to set up a picture gallery near the lift and change the pictures regularly;b. to put up-to-date newspapers on the wall;c. to open a small shop nearby where people can buy snacks;d. to put a shoe polisher (擦鞋器) there；e. to put a screen on the wall on which information about the stock exchange is shown;f. to play programs (e.g. news, short funny stories) on TV screens close to the lift.Part Three More ListeningPractice One I Can Have Her Here on T uesdays and Thursdays.Words Y ou Need to Know:constant不断的at each other’s throats激烈争吵therapy 治疗, 理疗resort方法therapist 治疗专家speechless 哑口无言的disbelief不相信TapescriptAfter just a few years of marriage, filled with constant arguments, a young man and his wife decided the only way to save their marriage was to try therapy. They had been at each other’sthroats for some time and felt that this was their last resort.When they arrived at the therapist’s office, the therapist j umped right in and opened the floor for discussion. “What seems to be the problem?” Immediately, the husband held his long face down without anything to say. On the other hand, the wife began describing all the wrongs within their marriage.After 5 -- 10 -- 15 minutes of listening to the wife, the therapist went over to her, picked her up by her shoulders, kissed her for several minutes, and sat her back down. Afterwards, the wife sat there--speechless.He looked over at the husband who was staring in disbelief at what had happened.

The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural preference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly influence your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, then it’s very likely that you will also provide separate bedrooms for your children. In America they train people to want their own private rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many cultures the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a crib near their bed.The areas in the home where people meet also reveal a lot about psychological space needs. Some families cluster, and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little places where family members go to be alone.Although psychological space needs are not determined by economic factors, they sometimes have to be modified a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, tocompletely change your psychological space needs.

Well,according to psychologists, it is--when you use the power of color.Here’s how it works: When you see a color, your brain sends a chemical message to an organ of your body, which pours the appropriate hormone into the bloodstream. So for instance, if you wear red, a color the brain finds exciting, it sends a signal which puts you in the mood for love.Blue has a calming effect on the nerves. Wear blue if you want to keep yourself cool during a busy day with the children. By contrast, orange creates a joyful atmosphere and focused activity. Also, yellow is a cheerful color reminding us of summer days, and it aids in decision-making. White, however, enhances brain power and a reflective mood.

They experimented by giving people a chance to help someone in trouble. A person would see a man carrying two boxes filled with books. As the person came closer, the book carrier dropped several books. The other researcher observed whether the passer-by offered to help.When the noise level was normal, 20 percent of the passers-by helped. When the experimenter wore a cast on his arm, 80 percent offered help.But when a very noisy lawnmower was nearby, 10% of the passers-by helped the unhandicapped man, and 15 percent helped the man with a cast.It seemed that people were less helpful when it was noisy because they wanted to escape the noise. So the researchers set up a similar experiment in a situation where the subjects couldn’t leave.A student volunteer waited in a room before being called for the experiment he expected. The experimenter waited in the same room, holding some books. He dropped the books. The noise level in the room varied from normal to loud; 75% of the 52 students helped pick up the books under normal conditions, but only half that many volunteered when the room was noisy. Perhaps because of the distracting noise, the students didn’t notice and respond quickly to the book-dropping. Or perhaps the book-dropping further annoyed students already irritated by the noise, making them less likely to help out.

It’s a new way of identifying personalities.Kelly: How?Janice:Y ou think of the four basic shapes—square,triangle, circle and rectangle and decide which shape you like best.Sue: I like triangles. They make me think of the ancient Egyptian pyramids. What does that say about me?Janice: The triangle stands for ambition and high achievement.Sue: I like that. What else?Janice: Y ou like to achieve. Once you decide what you want, nothing stops you. Also you like to give big parties for friends and love being in the center of the crowd.Sue: That fits me.Kelly:What about me? I like circles. That’s why I wear my blouse with the dots in it so often. Janice: The circle is a symbol of un ity. Getting along with others is most important to you. Y ou’re friendly, caring and a good listener. No wonder you’re so popular!Kelly:That’s nice to know. What about you?Janice: I like squares. This is supposed to mean that I like things to be planned and structured.Also that finishing things is important to me.Kelly: What else?Janice: It says that I prefer being with just a few friends rather than with a big group. That’s really true.Sue: Do you believe all of this?Janice:I don’t know but it’s f un to think about. (246 words)Directions: Listen to the dialogue twice and fill in the blanks with appropriate words according to the story.Key:It is fun to know that four basic shapes can be used to identify personalities. Those who like triangles are ambitious and like to have high achievement. These people like giving big parties for friends and love being in the center of the crowd. People who love circles and squares are different. Circle is a symbol of unity. Those circle lovers think getting along with others is most important, so they are friendly, caring and good listeners. People who like squares like everything to be planned and structured. Besides, they would rather being with a few friends than with a big group.Section IITV ShowTapescriptBob had finally made it to the last round of the $64,000 Question.

Unit 4 Outside View Activity 1Activity 3Listening inNews ReportActivity 1ScriptMany universities in the US are offering an Adopt-a-Grandparent programme. Through this programme, student volunteers are given the opportunity to adopt a senior adult living in a local nursing home as a “grandparent”. Each week students have the chance to spend time with their adopted grandparents talking, sharing stories and participating in a planned activity. In addition to regular visits, students are encouraged to write letters and send presents to their adopted grandparents. The elderly are also encouraged to do the same.This programme provides senior adults with a sense of purpose and belonging. Not everyone who lives in a nursing home gets visitors or enough visitors, or has grandchildren of their own. Students commit to spending one hour a week with their adopted grandparents, but some end up visiting for three or four hours a week. They do it because they like spending time with the elderly. There is no credit offered. The programme helps students develop a sense of social responsibility and community awareness. Moreimportantly, both students and the elderly learn from each other and form a family bond.1. What do we learn about the Adopt-a-Grandparent programme from the news report?2. How does the programme benefit the elderly?Activity 2ScriptA growing number of South Korean fathers are choosing to take a break from their careers to help bring up their children. Until recently, this is still regarded unthinkable as childcare has always been considered women’s responsibility in the male-dominated society of South Korea.South Korean women have long believed that employers give them a lower salary and don’t give them promotion because they’re likely to take time off to have children. They are also reluctant to be stay-at-home moms, having sole responsibility for all household duties. These concerns among women have contributed to a record low birth rate.President Park Geun-hye has announced a multi-billion plan to help couples to have larger families. Fathers who take paternity leave will receive a government aid equivalent to 40 per cent of their monthly income, capped at 1.0 million won. According to the plan, men and women are entitled to up to one year’s —paternity or maternity leave.1. What is considered unthinkable in South Korea?2. Why is there a low birth rate in South Korea?Passage 1Activity 1ScriptHost: There’s a question that’s been argued about for a long time. Which is more important, your family environment or your genes? Well, a story has come up in the news about identical twins, separated at birth. They’ve just been reunited. And guess what? There are some amazing coincidences in their life stories.Here’s the story –two American girls called Tamara and Adriana were separated at birth and adopted by two different sets of parents. And this is where the coincidences begin. Both families ended up living 25 miles apart. Both girls decided to study psychology at universities that are only a mile apart from each other. Isn’t that strange?And this girl, who’s a friend of both of them, insists they meet. Just before they meet, Adriana’s mother tells her that she has a twin sister. Can you imagine how that must feel when you’re 20 years old to learn you have a twin? And when the girls meet, it’s like looking in a mirror –they’re identical!Now get this! Both Tamara and Adriana’s adoptive fathers died when the girls were children. Both girls fell through glass doors at the age of five –that’s hard to believe, isn’t it? Their boyfriends look alike and have similarnames –Alex and Adam. And this is the best part –both of them have the same recurring dream. Isn’t that incredible –they have the same dream! I think it’s an amazing story. So, for all those of you out there who have comments, and I’m sure you do, the lines are open. OK, we’ve got Josh on the line. Hi Josh!Josh: Hi.Host: So, what do you make of this story?Josh: It’s a great story but it doesn’t surprise me at all. I’m an identical twin. Host: You are?Josh: Yeah, my brother’s called Toby, and we’re 22, and we’re going out with two sisters ... and we’re having a double wedding next June.Host: Congratulations! So, what do you think? Is it our genes that decide who we are? These kind of stories seem to suggest it.Josh: Well, I’m not a scientist, but I think so.Host: Research tells us that it’s about fifty-fifty.Josh: I, I disagree.Host: Thanks Josh. OK, our next caller is ...Activity 2Answer CDBCADCDPassage 2Activity 1ScriptVoice-over:Kidney transplants are of two kinds –transplants from dead people and living transplants, transplants from people who are alive. Mostly the donor, the person who gives the kidney, is a relative –a parent, brother or sister. We all recognize that it’s one of the most selfless things a person can do, to give a kidney to someone, but as the operation becomes safer and safer, more and more people are doing it. We talked to two sisters who have had the experience –Henrietta Longmore, a journalist aged 40, married with one son, and her sister, Teresa Parker, aged 38, married with two children. They come from a family with four children. Here’s their story.Teresa: Henrietta and I were close as children. She was the big sister and she was –just like a mother to us younger kids. Our parents were both doctors and our mum was very busy. We were close right through our teenage years. Then we shared a flat and had a lot of the same friends. It was great. Henrietta: Yes, we’ve always been close. I felt very protective of my brother and sisters because, like Teresa says, our parents were always so busy. But I also felt a bit jealous of Teresa –she was my dad’s favourite –but it didn’t affect our relationship.Teresa: Henrietta got kidney failure five years ago, but for several years she was fine and seemed quite healthy.Henrietta: Yes, I never thought of asking my family for a kidney. The hospital was brilliant and I really did feel fine, most of the time.Activity 2ScriptTeresa:But then a year ago she became very ill and almost died. I was terrified. I knew if she died, I’d blame myself. You know, why I hadn’t done more to help her. So I decided to find out more about giving her a kidney. Henrietta:Yes, I did almost die. It was awful. I, I was never going to ask Teresa for a kidney but I kind of knew that she would offer. To be honest, I felt I would have done the same.Teresa: Yes. At first I was a bit scared. But we went for a three-hour talk at the hospital and it was very reassuring. My whole family came. And they felt OK about it too, which was very important.Henrietta: People don’t know that you only need ten per cent of one kidney to be completely healthy, and kidney donors often live longer than other people.Teresa: Yes, you have to be very healthy to give a kidney. The hospital makes sure of that. Anyway, after the operation I got better very fast –probably because you know you’ve done something worthwhile and it does make you feel very good.Henrietta: I can’t describe how grateful I feel to Teresa. It’s such an amazing thing to do. What can I say? Her courage was, was extraordinary. She just didn’t seem afraid at all.Teresa: You do get a lot of praise for doing something like this. I’d like to do something that no one knows about.Answer CBACDABUnit TestSection AScript1.M: Something’s been bothering me lately. Do you mind if I get it off my chest?W: Not at all. What’s wrong?Q: What does the man mean when he says he wants to get something off his chest?2.W: How many siblings do you have?M: Five. There are six of us in all.W: Wow! That’s a lot.

I was at the beach.M: You were? Were you just there for a holiday?W: We had our annual family reunion at the beach this year.M: What a good idea! I guess you had a good time.W: Absolutely. I got to see all my relatives. Some of them live far away, so it was nice to have everyone in one place.M: Does your family have any traditions for the reunion?W: Not really, we all just like to be together and talk. My grandfather usually gives a very eloquent speech, but that’s about it.M: Oh, that’s nice.W: I’ll tell you what, I’m thankful I don’t have any children.M: Why is that?W: My cousin has a new baby and it looks like so much trouble. She needs diapers and a stroller to go anywhere.M: I suppose you get used to that though.W: Maybe. Still I could definitely go without the crying and squabbling.Q6: Which of the following statements most accurately describes the woman?Q7: With whom did the woman go to an event?Q8: How often does the woman’s family reunion take place?Answer CABSection CScriptWhen I think back to the days of my childhood, I clearly remember that many books my parents had in our house. I was a very curious little boy, but I didn’t much care for school work. I was always looking for a distraction. My parents’books serve this purpose nicely. I certainly wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth and we often couldn’t afford to take vacations during the summer. Instead, my vacations were in my imagination with friends like Alice in Wonderland and Dorothy in the Land of Oz. Those books not only helped me travel to fantastic places but they also helped my young mind run a gamut of emotions as I journeyed with the characters. My parents often encouraged me to take a chance on a new book or author and I was rarely disappointed. To the contrary, I was usually left in total amazement. My parents’encouragement to read when I was a child developed into my significant love of reading today.Thanks mom and dad!Q9: Which of the following will be the best title for this passage?Q10: How did the speaker feel about his school work?Q11: With whom does the speaker claim that he liked to travel together? Answer BADSection DScriptThe Chinese government plans to end its one-child-per-family policy and instead let families have two children. The plan was announced Thursday after high-level political meetings in Beijing. The official Xinhua news agency says the country's top legislature must approve the proposal before it becomes law.The Chinese government has given a number of reasons for the change in policy. The statement said the change is meant to balance population development. It also said the move attempts to stop a declining birth rate and strengthen the country's work force. China, the world's most populous country, launched the one-child policy in 1980. But the government permitted only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some rural families were given approval to have two children.In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children. Families could have two if one parent was an only child. At the end of 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them were employed. But that job market population is expected to drop by 2050. With the two-child policy, an increase in births will ease the labor shortage, starting in 20 years.Q12: What does this news report mainly talk about?Q13: When will the universal two-child policy be enacted?Q14: When will the labor shortage emerge?Answer ACD。
