Unit 1 college lifeText A A Satisfying College Experience令人满意的大学体验莉亚·思宁斯基2011年8月31日随着时间的推移,我对“你长大想要干什么?”这个老问题的答案变化很大.四岁时候,像大多数充满希望的学龄前儿童,我很自信的回答,我想成为美国总统。

上小学时,我的目标稍微实际了一点-我想成为一名宇航员或者科学家。

但是,到了初中,警钟响起:我对自然科学没有天赋.上高中时,我决定在英语方面找到适合自己的位置,我的职业规划是希望自己做自己最喜欢的一块—读和写。

作为一名主修英语辅修新闻的大四学生,我自豪地说我不得不放弃梦想,我长大想要做什么的梦想毫无疑问排在我毕业后能做什么之后。

每当我告诉人们我上大学所学的东西,我收到的是种种疑问,我听到的是各种“为什么”,领会的多,自然就更自信.大学的三年时光让我明白所有关于大学的陈词滥调都是正确的.大学是一生中学习最多的地方.不仅仅在学习上,而且因为大学塑造了未来的我们。

上大学时候所做的选择极大地影响我们培养的兴趣和我们认可的价值观。

刚毕业我可能不能在出版社找到理想的工作,但是我不后悔,也从来没有后悔过我所选择的专业。

今年夏天,在朋友的毕业晚会上,我听着朋友们讨论以后无聊的工作和压抑的研究生生活。

这些都是我最聪明,最有天赋和最勤奋的朋友.他们的简历令人印象深刻,写满了各个季度的实习,各个社团的职位以及极高的GPA。

他们中很多人都是英文专业.但是我仍然怀有希望。

在大学,我亲身体验了我所珍视的东西。

体验了记者的生活,完成了采访,体验了截止日期内交稿,体验了看到所写的东西出版的满足感。

在文学课上,我拜读了作家的经典作品,他们的价值观有的我认同,有的我反对,但是他们都使我变得更加智慧,更加有修养,更加开明。

或许需要一段时间,我才能找到像我大学经历那样满意的职业,但是我相信我能找到。

我永远感激自己上大学学的是文科,我知道它将继续丰富我的生活。

C Listening ExerciseListen to a conversation about astronomy and choose the best answers to the questions you hear.1.What planet came close to Earth in August?A.Saturn.B.Jupiter.C.V enus.D.Mars.2.What did the ancient people who lived on the islands of the Pacific use the starsfor?A.For knowing signs from their gods.B.For personal discovery.C.For finding their way across huge areas of ocean.D.For guiding their ships to home.3.What do you know about the five great mysteries?A.These mysteries were objects that don’t move.B.These objects seemed always to move in one direction.C.Almost every ancient culture knew of these five mysteries.D.Nowadays we cannot find the five wanderers using only our eyes.4.What are the five wanderers?A.Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, Mercury and Mars.B.Saturn, Jupiter, V enus, Comet and Mars.C.Saturn, Sirius, Jupiter, Mercury and Mars.D.Saturn, V enus, Sirius, Mercury and Mars.5.What is the main idea of the dialogue?A.The science of astronomy.B.The study of Mars.C.The study of stars.D.Five great mysteries.ScriptLisa: Hello, Mark, did you hear the planet Mars came close to Earth in August, closer than it has been in the past sixty-thousand years?Mark: Y es, this event helped create a huge interest in the science of astronomy. Lisa:I know people have always watched the beautiful night sky. Many ancient people of the world closely studied the stars for signs from their gods, such as, um…Mark: Such as the ancient people of Egypt, Greece, Italy and China.Lisa: Exactly. The people who lived on the islands of the Pacific even used the stars to find their way across huge areas of ocean.Mark:Right. The people of Earth today still look to the stars for information -- not about ancient gods, but about the universe. Modern technology has made it possible to see objects in space that are thousands of millions of kilometers away.Lisa:However, without technology you can see all of the same objects in the night sky that ancient people saw. There is a lot to see and study.Mark: Y ou said it. Come to think of it, ancient people who watched the night sky considered five great mysteries. These mysteries were objects that moved from place to place. Some of these objects seemed to move straight ahead. Others seemed to move in one direction for a while and then move back in the opposite direction. Some could be seen for a few months and then disappeared. But they did not seem to shine like other stars.Almost every ancient culture knew of these five mysteries. The ancient Greeks called them "planetes." (PLAN-ee-teess).The word means wanderer -- one who moves from place to place with no home.Lisa: On a dark, clear night, away from the lights of a city, we can still find the five wanderers using only our eyes. However they are no longer mysteries. Today we know them as Saturn, Jupiter, V enus, Mercury and the closest planet to Earth, the red planet, Mars.Mark:Mars is only one of the many interesting objects that can be seen at night. Lisa: Hey, do you want to learn more about the sky, stars and planets?Mark: Sure, why?Lisa:Let’s go to the library which has books that can teach us about the science of astronomy.Mark: Great idea!Fun Facts About AstronomyAstronomy is the scientific study of celestial objects like stars, comets, planets and galaxies. It is derived from Greek words astron and nomos which mean 'star' and 'law' respectively. It is related with formation and development of the universe, motion of celestial objects, evolution, physics and chemistry.Since the 20th century, the field of astronomy has got divided into two branches: observational and theoretical. Observational astronomy emphasizes on acquiring and analyzing the data by using basic principles of physics.Whereas, theoretical astronomy focuses on the development of computer or analytical models to explain astronomical objects and phenomena. Both these branches complement each other. Fun Facts About The SunThe sun is 4.5 billion years old and produces 383 billion trillion kilowatts of energy.Sunlight takes 8 minutes to reach the earth and is responsible for the ocean currents and weather patterns on our planet.The earth orbits the sun in an elliptical uneven orbit and the distance between them varies depending on where the earth lies in that orbit.The sun is only an average size for a star but still accounts for 98% of the total matter in our solar system.The solar winds produced by the sun extend to about 50AU, where AU is the distance from the earth to the sun.The lightning in the sky is nearly 3 times hotter than the sun.Fun Facts About The MoonThe moon is the only non-Earth object upon which a man has walked.Dr. EugeneShoemaker's love for the moon was so much that after his death, his ashes were scattered over the moon by the Lunar Prospector spacecraft in 1999.The giant footprint left on the moon dust by astronaut Neil Armstrong is believed to be the oldest footprint.Every year the moon is moving away from the Earth by 3 cm.Fun Facts About StarsThere are nearly 1 x 10 ^22 stars in the universe.Some of the stars in the sky are so far that the light from them takes millions of years to reach us.Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our solar system and is nearly 4 light years away.Inside the nebula, when gases and dust condense, a new object is formed which is known as protostar.Depending upon how hot the white dwarf star is, its color varies from blue, white, yellow or red.Supernova explosions are capable of destroying an entire star. Pulsar, a neutron star which was discovered in 1967 emits radio waves.Polaris, the north star, is the only star in the sky that doesn't appear to move from night to night. Fun Facts About PlanetsMercury is the second smallest planet in the solar system and has no moon. It can get as hot as 800º C and cold as 300º C below zero. One year on Mercury is equal to 88 days on earth. It is named after the Roman God of Commerce.V enus is the only planet that rotates from east to west. A year on this planet is equal to 225 days on earth.Earth is nearly 93 million miles away from the sun. It takes about 16 million horsepower to break the earth's gravitational pull.According to scientists, in around 5 billion years, a day on earth will be 48 hours long and somewhere during that time the sun will explode.The planet Neptune was discovered more than150 years ago in 1846, and since then it still has to complete an orbit around the sun, as one Neptune year equals to 165 Earth years.Pluto does not have a fixed orbit and its orbit comes in the middle of Neptune's orbit. Also, Pluto's size is very small which made scientists demoted it to a dwarf planet status.Astronomy can be considered as an interesting science filled with many fun and interesting facts. Whether it's the size or temperature of a star, the Sun, distant planets - anything and everything once discovered is recorded. This information can be retrieved to entertain and enlighten people.Exercise 2: Listening for DetailsListen to the first part and decide whether the following statements are true (T), false(F) or not given (NG).1.Wang Zhaoyao is the director general of the State Council Information Office. (F)2.The goals achieved by Shenzhou-10 manned space mission included precisedocking. (T)3.The next step is to set up a permanent space station. (NG)Exercise 3: Key wordsScriptThe State Council Information Office has held a news conference on the mission. And Wang Zhaoyao, director of, beg your pardon, director general of China’s Manned Space office officially announced that the Shenzhou-10 mission was a "complete success". Our reporter Su Yuting takes a close look at the crowning achievement,the China’s manned space program.Completing the 15-day journey in space and getting safely back to earth, the three astronauts, NieHaisheng, Wang Yaping and Zhang Xiaoguang, are in good health. The State Council Information Office held a press conference on the accomplishment of the Shenzhou-10 mission."The Tiangong-1 and Shenzhou-10 manned space mission has achieved all its goals including accurate injection into orbit, precise docking, stable operation, maintaining good health of the crew in orbit and its safe return.”The success of C hina’s fifth manned mission is just the latest step in its long term goal of setting up a permanent space station.The Shenzhou-10 blasted off on June 11th, from northwest China’s Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.On June 13th, the Shenzhou-10 automatically docked with the Tiangong-1 space module.The astronauts entered Tiangong-1 to conduct scientific and technical experiments to gain experience for future space station.A week later, Wang Yaping became China’s first teacher to give a lecture from space.She demonstrated experiments of weight and mass, and the effects of surface tension on liquids in a zero-gravity environment, as she interacted with students on earth.More than 60 million students and teachers across China watched the live broadcast of the lecture.Then on June 23rd, the crew conducted a manual docking procedure.NieHaisheng piloted the spacecraft, while the other two monitored the instruments and flight path.On June 24th, President Xi Jinping spoke with three astronauts via a two-way video link.("The space dream is a crucial part of our nation-building dream. With the rapid development of China’s space industry, a great step forward will be made by Chinese people in the exploration of space," Xi Jinping said.)On June 25th, the Shenzhou-10 flew around Tiangong-1 and docked with the module.This marked the success of China’s first test flight to fly around and dock ed with a module.The Shenzhou-10 mission marks China’s transition into the application phase of the space technology development. It has injected confidence in the country’s space program, which will hopefully be an impetus for further space exploration. Su Yuting, CCTV, Beijing.A Listening TaskExercise: Compound DictationDirection: Listen to the passage about lunar mission and fill in the blanks with what you hear.On April 12th, 1961, the Soviets put their (1) supremacy beyond doubt. Yuri Gagarin became the first man in space. Enough was enough. America’s new president needed to make his own grand (2) gesture.For the eyes of the world now look into space to the moon and the planets beyond. And we have (3) vowed that we shall not see it governed by a (4) hostile flag of conquest, but by a banner of freedom and peace. We choose to go to the moon, we choose to go to the moon, we choose to go to the moon in this (5) decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.Apollo 17 was the final (6) mission. On board was Harrison Schmitt--- the only scientist ever to fly to the moon.‘Challenger, you will go for the landing.’‘Feels good.Stand by for touchdown. Stand by, down in 2, feels good. 20 feet, going down in 2.Ten feet. Ten feet,got contact.’He landed in the Taurus-Littrow V alley, the site of the cinder cones (7) spotted from Apollo 15.Schmitt:‘The beauty of the place was certainly not lost on me. But once you’re there, you sort of slip into the mode of being a field geologist. And it’s your profession, you got three days to practice it in this very remarkable location, beautiful location. And so you go at it.’On their second field trip, Schmitt and Cernan made their way to a crater called Shorty. (8) It was five kilometers from base and they were running dangerously short of time.‘Guys, we don’t have that much time.’‘I know, Bob, I know.’Schmitt:‘By the time we arrived at Shorty, we knew it was going to be a short stop. Half an hour really is all we had because of our oxygen supply.’‘That’s twenty nine and a half minutes from now, but rememberthey left that site a little bit late.’Schmitt:‘We had anticipated though that we might see something exciting there in the event that this was really a volcanic crater. So I headed over to the edge of the crater and on the way I scuffed up some orange-looking material at my feet. And that was when the whole excitement started.‘Oh, hey, there’s orange soil. It’s all over.’‘That’s a volcanic vent.’‘It is. I can see it from here. It is orange.’(9) The orange soil looked like evidence of recent volcanic activity, a find that could challenge everything the earlier missions had discovered about the moon.‘I gotta dig a trench. Houston. Fantastic, sports fan, it’s trench time.’(10) In just half an hour, Schmitt and Cernan gathered all the orange soil they could lay hands on.‘How can there be orange soil on the moon?’‘They gotta leave at a certain time regardless of what they’ve got.’‘There isn’t enough time going, they do it no matter which way you want to do it, we need more time.’‘Jim, you better make it clear to Parker we’ve got to pull out.’‘We’d like you to leave immediately.’‘Ok, my golly, this time goes fast.’‘Three, two, one, ignition.’‘We’re on our way, Houston.’These were the last men to walk on the moon.。

It was so much fun and I learned a ton of cool new stuff. Get ready for a long story because there's a lot to cover!On Monday morning, my mom drove me to Camp Wildwood which is about an hour away from our house. I was a little nervous since I had never been away from home for a whole week before. But as soon as I arrived, the counselors were really nice and helped me feel welcome. They showed me and the other new campers around the camp and explained all the different activities we could do.After dropping off my stuff in the cabin, we headed over to the lake for swimming lessons. I'm not the strongest swimmer yet, so I was in the beginners group. The lifeguards taught us how to float on our backs and tread water. It was hard work butI'm glad I practiced those skills. Later that afternoon, we had arts and crafts time where I made a cool tie-dye shirt.The best part of the day though was definitely campfire time at night. All the campers gathered around the fire pit and the counselors told spooky stories and taught us funny camp songs. We made s'mores too which was my first time trying them. So good! I had a hard time falling asleep that first night because I was too excited.Tuesday started with an awesome nature hike through the woods. Our counselor Jim pointed out different plants, birds, and animal tracks along the trail. He taught us tree identification by looking at the leaves and bark. After the hike, we had an outdoors cooking lesson over the campfire. We made hobo pies which are like little personal pies cooked in tinfoil with fruit filling inside. Delicious!In the afternoon, we went canoeing on the lake. I was a little nervous getting into the canoe at first because I thought it might tip over. But our counselors showed us the proper rowing technique to keep the canoe stable. It was harder work than I expected to paddle across the lake! That night after campfire, we had a stargazing session with a big telescope. It was amazing to see planets, stars, and galaxies up close.Wednesday was probably my favorite day. In the morning, we went on a rockin' climbing adventure! Camp Wildwood has this awesome rock climbing wall and high ropes course. After getting harnessed up, I conquered my fear of heights and made it all the way to the top. The view from up there was incredible. In the afternoon, we did some team building games and activities which helped me make new friends. At night, we had a talent show around the campfire where kids could sing, dance, tell jokes, or show off any other talents. I told a few of my favorite kid-appropriate jokes which got some good laughs.Things slowed down a little on Thursday. We had a relaxing morning learning about bird watching and identifying different species by sight and sound. Later on, we had a workshop on camping skills like how to pitch a tent, build a fire, read a compass, and other survival stuff. I feel ready to go camping in the wilderness now! That evening, we had an outdoor movie night on a big screen set up near the lake which was really cool.On my last day Friday, I was definitely feeling sad that camp was ending. We spent the morning packing up our stuff in the cabins and doing cabin clean-up duties. In the afternoon though, we had one final big event which was the Camp Wildwood Olympics! Campers were split into teams to compete in goofyevents like a three-legged race, water balloon toss, tug-of-war and more. My team was unstoppable and we won the gold medal!After the Olympics, we had one final campfire ceremony where they handed out awards and signatures to decorate our Camp Wildwood shirts and bandanas. I was honored to receive the "Camper of the Week" award which made me feel so proud. I'll never forget that incredible, adventure-filled week of learning new skills, conquering challenges, and making wonderful friends.So that's the full scoop on my summer camp experience, friends! I highly recommend going to sleep-away camp if you get the chance. You're guaranteed to have an awesome time exploring nature, trying new activities, and creating lasting memories. I'm already counting down the days until next summer when I can go back to Camp Wildwood!篇2My Big Adventure at the ZooLast weekend, my mom and dad took me to the zoo for my birthday! I was so excited because I love animals. We got up really early and packed a picnic lunch with sandwiches, fruit, chips, and juice boxes. The drive to the zoo took forever, or atleast it felt like it to me. I kept asking "Are we there yet?" every five minutes.Finally, we made it to the zoo entrance. I could see the huge sign with a picture of an elephant. My dad paid for our tickets and we went inside. The first thing I saw was the map showing all the different animal exhibits. There were so many! I didn't know where to start.We decided to head to the Africa section first to see the lions, zebras, and giraffes. On the way, we stopped to watch the sea lion show. The sea lions were so funny and did lots of cool tricks like balancing balls on their noses and jumping through hoops. One of them even waved at me!In the Africa section, we saw the most amazing animals. The lions were sleeping in the shade under a big tree. They looked very peaceful and fluffy. The male lion had a huge mane around his head that made him look like a king. I wouldn't want to make him mad though - those teeth were massive!My favorite was definitely the giraffes. They were so tall - taller than the trees even! Their long necks seemed to go on forever. One giraffe was sticking his giant purple tongue out to grab some leaves off a branch. I wanted to pet their spots but the sign said not to try to touch or feed the animals.Next, we went to the primate area to see the monkeys and apes. They were so funny, swinging from branch to branch and making lots of loud noises. Some of the smaller monkeys liked to pick bugs and leaves out of each other's fur. The gorillas were incredible - they looked so strong and powerful. One silverback gorilla was beating his chest which made the ground shake!After that, it was time for our picnic lunch. We found a nice shady spot near the duck pond to eat our sandwiches and rest our feet for a bit. I fed the ducks some crumbs from my chips which they seemed to love.Our last stop was the reptile house. To be honest, I was a little scared at first because some of the snakes looked really slippery and creepy behind the glass. But I was also fascinated by how they could unhinge their jaws to swallow huge prey whole. The crocodiles and alligators were pretty scary too with their massive jaws and teeth.My favorite reptiles ended up being the turtles. There was a really old, huge one that looked like it was smiling as it swam around its pond. The zoo keeper said some turtles can live to be over 100 years old! I also got to pet a smaller tortoise. Its shell felt hard but smooth, almost like a rock.After the reptile house, we were all getting pretty tired so we decided to call it a day. On the way out, I begged my parents for one last treat - a swirl ice cream cone from the snack stand. Cookies and cream for me, please!I had such an amazing day seeing all the cool animals up close. The zoo was so much fun that I can't wait to go back again sometime soon. Maybe next time I'll even get to feed a giraffe! I just hope nobody tells the lions where I live - those teeth were no joke.篇3Hi, my name is Timmy and I'm in 3rd grade. Today I want to tell you about what I learned in Listening Lesson 14 in my Academic English class. It was all about understanding different accents and pronunciation in English. Boy, was it interesting!First, we talked about how English is spoken differently in different countries and regions. My teacher said that even though English started in England, it spread all around the world as people moved and settled in new places. So now there are lots of different "accents" or ways of pronouncing English words.One accent we learned about was the British accent from England. The teacher played some recordings and it soundedreally fancy and proper to me. Like when they say words with an "a" like "can't" or "pants", they make it sound more like "cahn't" or "pahn'ts". They also don't pronounce "r" sounds as strongly as Americans do.Then we listened to some Australian English accent samples. That one sounded really relaxed and casual, kind of like a dude at the beach. They say "day" like "dye" and "no" like "nah". The Australian accent makes a lot of the vowel sounds higher too.The next one was from India and it sounded very melodic and musical to me. In Indian English, they really stretch out their vowel sounds and their accents go up and down a lot on different syllables of words. Like "hello" almost sounds like "helloooo". It's a very lilting accent.After that was the Jamaican accent from the Caribbean islands. That one was my favorite - it had such a fun, bouncy rhythm! The Jamaican speakers we heard kind of sang their words and dropped a lot of consonant sounds. Like "There" became "Dere" and "think" was more like "tink".We also covered the Southern American accent from states like Texas and Alabama. That drawling accent drew out a lot of vowels, like "I" became "Ahhhhhh" and "prize" turned into "prahhhhhz". The Southern accent speakers also tended to drop"g" sounds at the end of words like "going" (goin') and "reading" (readin').Finally, we learned about the Boston accent from Massachusetts. Boy, that was a tricky one! In the Boston accent, "r" sounds get added to words that don't actually have any "r"s! So "park the car" comes out like "pahk the cah". They also make the "a" really flat like the British do.After listening to all those different accents, we had to do some exercises identifying which accent we were hearing in short clips. I got most of them right because the different accents all sounded really distinct to me after practicing.My teacher said it's important to be able to understand all the different accents because English is a global language spoken by people all over the world. If you can't understand different pronunciations, then you'll miss out on communicating with a lot of people! She also said having an accent is totally normal and natural. As long as you can be understood, there's no accent that's "better" or more correct than others.I think my favorite part was hearing the fun rhyme about all the accents:"There once was a speaker from Mass,Whose accent would make your head ask -Was there an "r" carOr a kid named Marr?Who could nevah be sure, in that class!"I had such a good time learning about all the different ways to speak English in Lesson 14. Understanding accents helps me appreciate how diverse and far-reaching the English language is across the globe. I can't wait for the next lesson to learn more!篇4Hi there! My name is Emily and I'm going to tell you all about Listening Lesson 14 from my Academic English class. It was super interesting to me so I want to share what I learned.The lesson was all about understanding conversations between multiple people. The teacher said this is an important skill because in the real world, we often find ourselves in group situations where several people are talking at once. It can be really hard to follow along!We started by listening to a conversation between three friends deciding where to go for lunch. There were lots of suggestions being thrown around - pizza, Chinese food, that newburger place. I had to concentrate really hard to keep track of who said what and their reasons for wanting a particular type of food. The friends also interrupted each other a few times which made it even trickier.After listening, the teacher asked us some comprehension questions. Things like "Who suggested the pizza place?" and "What reason did Jessica give for not wanting burgers?" I got most of them right because I took good notes while listening. Writing down key words and details really helps me concentrate.Next up was a more challenging conversation - a family discussion about what to do over summer vacation. This time there were four people involved - mom, dad, and two kids. They were weighing the pros and cons of different vacation options like going to the beach, visiting relatives, or staying home and doing local activities.The hard part was keeping track of who preferred what option and why. The mom and dad had different priorities than the kids. And then the kids weren't fully agreeing with each other either! At one point they all started talking over each other and I got a bit lost. But I tried circling words like "I think," "My idea is," and "What if we..." to identify who was stating an opinion.When we discussed it as a class, I realized I had missed some key points about the dad's perspective. My teacher reminded me to always be listening for cues about each speaker's stance, like "My main concern is..." or "The best part would be..." Those signal phrases helped clue me into the main arguments.The final conversation was THE HARDEST! It involved a teacher and four students having a casual discussion about favorite books. With so many people, there was a lot of crosstalk and interrupting. Also, people would briefly mention book titles or authors without giving much context. So I'd be scrambling to write down vocabulary words I couldn't quite make out.For that one, taking notes wasn't as effective for me. I ended up having to listen for context clues about what book someone was referring to based on their opinion about the writing style, character descriptions, etc. The teacher said that for complex group conversations, that's a really important skill - making inferences from limited information.Overall, I learned that following group conversations requires intense concentration, active listening, and note-taking skills. It's something I definitely need to keep practicing. Maybe I'll ask my friends to have more multi-person chats when we hang out! I'll be the expert conversation-follower in no time.Whew, that was a lot of detail! But I really enjoyed that listening lesson and wanted to share all the tips I picked up. Let me know if you have any other questions!篇5Lesson 14: My Favorite AnimalTeacher: Good morning, class! Today, we are going to talk about our favorite animals. Let's start with you, Jenny.

Let's appreciate and respect them all.篇6Lesson 14: Our Amazing Solar SystemHello, everyone! Today, we are going on an exciting adventure to explore our amazing solar system. Are you ready? Let's start our journey!Our solar system is made up of the Sun and all the objects that orbit around it. The Sun is like a big, bright ball of fire in the sky. It gives us light, heat, and energy. We should always remember to never look directly at the Sun because it can hurt our eyes.Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. It's a small, rocky planet that is very hot during the day and extremely cold at night. It takes Mercury only 88 days to orbit around the Sun. That's really fast!Venus is the second planet from the Sun. It's often called Earth's sister planet because it's similar in size. Venus has thick clouds that trap heat, making it the hottest planet in our solar system. Did you know that it spins in the opposite direction compared to most other planets?Earth is our home planet, and it's the third planet from the Sun. We are so lucky to live here! Earth has everything we need to survive – air, water, and beautiful landscapes. It takes 365 days for Earth to complete one orbit around the Sun, and that's why we have different seasons.Next, we have Mars, also known as the "Red Planet." It gets its nickname from the reddish color of its surface. Scientists have sent many missions to Mars to learn more about it. Who knows, maybe one day we'll be able to visit Mars and explore it ourselves!Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system. It's so big that all the other planets could fit inside it! Jupiter has a big, redspot called the Great Red Spot. It's actually a huge storm that has been going on for hundreds of years. Isn't that amazing?Saturn is famous for its beautiful rings made up of ice and rocks. These rings make Saturn look like a giant with a fancy belt. It's truly a sight to behold! Saturn also has many moons, and some of them are even covered in ice.Uranus and Neptune are the last two planets in our solar system. They are both known as ice giants because they are made mostly of ice and gas. Uranus is a bluish-green color, while Neptune is a deep blue.

学术英语视听说原文学术英语视听说原文:Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Today, I would like to present my research on the impact of climate change on biodiversity. Climate change is a pressing global issue, and its effects on biodiversity have become a topic of significant concern for scientists worldwide. In this presentation, I will discuss the current understanding of the relationship between climate change and biodiversity, as well as some potential solutions to mitigate its negative effects.Firstly, let's examine the impact of climate change on species distribution. As temperatures and weather patterns change, many species are forced to adapt or migrate to new habitats. This can lead to a disruption in ecosystems, as some species may struggle to find suitable environments or resources. For example, certain animal populations, such as polar bears, are at risk of extinction due to the melting of polar ice caps caused by global warming. Additionally, plants and insects that rely on specific temperature ranges for reproduction and survival may also be adversely affected. Understanding these shifts in species distribution is crucial for predicting and managing potential biodiversity loss. Secondly, climate change can have a significant impact on species interactions and ecological dynamics. Many species have mutually beneficial relationships, such as pollinators and plants. However, if the timing of flowering and pollinator activity is altered due to changing climate conditions, this intricate web of interactions can be disrupted. For instance, if plants flower earlier than usual,pollinators may not be ready to pollinate them, leading to reduced reproductive success. Such disturbances in species interactions can have cascading effects throughout ecosystems, affecting the overall stability and functioning of ecosystems.Thirdly, let's discuss the potential solutions for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on biodiversity. One approach is the conservation of natural habitats. By protecting and restoring ecosystems, we can provide refuge for species to adapt and survive in the face of changing climate conditions. This includes creating and maintaining protected areas, implementing sustainable land management practices, and reducing habitat fragmentation.Another strategy is promoting genetic diversity within species. Genetic diversity is important for the adaptation and resilience of populations to changing environments. By conserving diverse gene pools within species, we can increase their chances of survival and successful adaptation to climate change.Additionally, international collaboration and policy interventions are crucial for addressing climate change and its impact on biodiversity. Governments and institutions need to work together to develop and implement policies that prioritize sustainability and climate change mitigation. This includes reducing greenhouse gas emissions, promoting renewable energy sources, and supporting research efforts on climate change and biodiversity.In conclusion, climate change poses a significant threat to biodiversity. Understanding the impact of climate change on species distribution, species interactions, and ecological dynamicsis essential for developing effective conservation strategies. By conserving habitats, promoting genetic diversity, and implementing policy interventions, we can help mitigate the negative effects of climate change on biodiversity and ensure the long-term survival of Earth's ecosystems. Thank you for your attention.【参考内容】Title: The Impact of Climate Change on Biodiversity Introduction:- Climate change is a pressing global issue.- Scientists worldwide are concerned about its effects on biodiversity.Main Points:1.

学术英语视听说1原文In the era of globalization, the importance of academic English, particularly in the areas of visual, aural, and speaking skills, has become increasingly apparent. These skills are not only crucial for effective communication within the academic community but also play a pivotal role in enhancing cross-cultural understanding and proficiency. The integration of visual, aural, and speaking elements in academic English learning not only enhances comprehension but also fosters a deeper understanding of diverse cultural perspectives.The visual aspect of academic English, through the use of graphics, charts, and other visual aids, allows learners to process information more efficiently. This visual literacy complements traditional textual learning, making complex ideas and theories more accessible and comprehensible. For instance, in the field of science, where concepts can often be abstract and theoretical,visual representations provide a concrete framework for understanding and retaining knowledge.The aural component of academic English is equally important, especially in the context of international conferences and collaborations. The ability to understand and speak clearly in English is paramount in bridging cultural divides and ensuring smooth communication. This skill is further enhanced through the use of audio materials, podcasts, and online resources that expose learners to native speakers and real-world applications of the language.Moreover, speaking skills in academic English are crucial for presenting research, participating in discussions, and contributing to the academic discourse. By practicing speaking in English, learners not only improve their fluency but also gain confidence in expressing their ideas and perspectives. This confidence is further bolstered by engaging in cross-cultural communication, which exposes learners to diverse viewpoints and ways of thinking.The integration of these three elements – visual, aural, and speaking – in academic English learning is particularly beneficial for developing cross-culturalproficiency. As learners engage with visual aids, listen to native speakers, and practice speaking in English, they become more attuned to the nuances of language and culture. This enhanced awareness fosters a deeper understanding of diverse cultural perspectives, promoting tolerance and respect among individuals.In conclusion, academic English visual, aural, and speaking skills are integral to enhancing cross-cultural understanding and proficiency. By leveraging these skills, learners can not only communicate effectively within the academic community but also develop a broader understanding of global perspectives and issues. The continuous development and refinement of these skills are essentialfor fostering a culture of mutual respect and understanding in an increasingly interconnected world.**学术英语视听说与跨文化交流能力的提升**在全球化的时代,学术英语的重要性,特别是在视听和口语技能方面,已经变得越来越明显。

Unit 1 ■Warm Up■Listening Task 1 First Listening Answers Second Listening ScriptThe neighborhood children my age played together: either active, physical games outdoors or games of dolls-and-house indoors. I, on the other hand, spent much of my childhood alone. I would curl up in a chair reading fairytales and myths, daydreaming, writing poems or stories and drawing pictures. Sometime around the fourth grade, my “big”(often critical, judgmental) Grandma, who would been visiting us said to me, “What is wrong with you! Why don’t the other children want to play with you?” I remember being startled and confused by her question. I would never been particularly interested in playing with the other children. It had not, till then, occurred to me that that was either odd or something wrong with me. Nor had it occurred to me that they did not “ want to play with” me. My first conscious memory of feeling different was in the fourth grade. At the wardrobe, listening to classmates joking, chattering and laughing with each other, I realized I had not a clue about what was so funny or of how to participate in their easy chatter. They seemed to live in a universe about which I knew nothing at all. I tried to act like others but it was so difficult. I felt confused and disoriented. I turned back to my inner world: reading books, writing and daydreaming. My inwardness grew me in ways that continued to move me further away from the world of my age peers. The easy flow of casual social chat has remained forever beyond my reach and beyond my interest, too.Unit 2 Personality■Warm Up■Listening Task 1 ScriptEverybody cheats. Whether it's the taxi driver who tricks a visitor and takes himthe long way round, or the shop assistant who doesn't give the correct change, or the police officer who accepts a bride - everybody's at it. Cheats in the news include the scientist whose research was based on fake data, the game show contestant who collaborated with a friend in the audience to win a million pounds, and the doctor who forged his qualifications and wasn't really a doctor at all. Everybody cheats; nobody's playing the game.Is cheating acceptable, a natural way of surviving and being successful? Or is it something that should be frowned on, and young people discouraged from doing? If it's the latter, how can we explain to children why so many bend the rules?Take sport for example. The pinnacle way of football, the World Cup, was rife with cheating,. Whether pretending to be hurt or denying a handball, footballers will do anything for a free-kick or a penalty shot. French player Henry—■Real World Listening ScriptMr.Washington: George, are you sure you had nothing to do with chopping downthe cherry tree?George: I don't clearly recall chopping this tree down. Mr.Washington:Isn’t this your axGeorge:That appears to be very si e? milar to my axe.Mr.Washington: But your axe is right here, and the tree is freshly cut, and you are the only person around. Mrs.Washington:Oh,just drop it, and it’s only a tree.Mr.Washington: But it’s not the tree. We really need to find out if he’s being ho nestwith us. I won’t put up with lying, and he shouldn’t get you tocover up for him.George:I’m going to say this one more time: I didn’t chop down that tree—thecherry tree—and I did not ask anyone to lie. Not one time.Never!Mr.Washington: George, there’s no fresh-cut firewood around, but your hair andclothing are full of wood chips, and the chips look like cherrywood to me. How do you explain that? George:Well, it’s possiblethat I might have swung the axe in an inappropriate manner whichmight have resulted in some harm to the tree, but at the momentyou asked me, I was thinking of w hat “chop” means and myaction didn't meet my definition of“chopping”, so I didn’t lie. Mrs.Washington: This is not really worth all the fuss. Even if he did it, it’s only a tree, Let’s forget it and enjoy this lovely afternoon. George: Thank you,Mom.We have stately oak tree on the front lawn. Can I try my axe again there?Unit 3 Lifestyle■Warm Up■Listening Task 1 Script:When she has young children, a stay-at-home mom has two jobs. Her house and her kids. A stay-at-home mom is expected to do all the house cleaning. She is expected to always be the one to get up in the middle of the night, do the schoolthings---room-mother, baker, coordinator, chauffeur and carpooler, etc. Often, astay-at-home mom is expected to take over “daddy-type” chores such aslawn-mowing and taking cars for repair. Imagine sitting in a repair shop with twosquirmy toddlers! The worse thing is that the stay-at-home mom is made to feel guilty for saying “no”. The reason the stay-at-home mom does not get her nails done or have a spa day is she feels guilty for spending family money on herself.Gosh, you all have such hectic lives. I’m dizzy just hearing your daily activities. I guess I have it nice. I have no schedule at all! I get up when I want. I work my business when I want. I shop when I want to. I wash my hair when I bathe or I don’t wash my hair. When I go to work all I have to do is open up my office door in my house and I’m at work already. No traffic to deal with and there can be 10 feet of snow on the ground and I wouldn’t have to walk an inch of it because my house connects directly to my warehouse! If I get u p and don’t feel like working I don’t.■Listening Task 2 ScriptI took my first drink and smoked my first marijuana cigarette when I was 12 years old .In high school, I used all kinds of drugs. After high school until I was 21, I did a lot binge drinking .When I was 31, I started using crack cocaine. That’s when the real problems began.I was addicted to alcohol and cocaine, and my life was a wreck. I tried to quit a number of times. I moved to Mexico and gave up cocaine. I still drank and smoked marijuana, but for the time I lived there, I was off cocaine. I thought that time off cocaine would completely cure me of any desire for it, but when I got back in town two years later, I started using it again only five days later. Every part of my life was messed up. I remember my oldest son being embarrassed to be seen with me .He would pass me on the street with his friends but he wouldn’t even speak to me. Thebottom came for me when I was finally evicted from my apartment. I lost my car my car, my home and my sons. I looked in the mirror that day, and I couldn’t look myself in the eyes. The next morning, I showed up at the treatment center. The first few days of detox and treatment were hard, but I was convinced that I needed help, so I stayed. I’ve b een clean now for five years, and I have a new life .■Real World Listening ScriptReporter: Are you treated differently in the workplace as a woman?Nancy: Between changing gender and becoming a blonde, I’ve lost 20 IQ points in the public’s eyes. Use to your advantage though, I’m not pretty enough to do it very well. It is a challenge. I kind of broke through the glass ceiling from the wrong direction.Reporter: Switching from slacks to pantyhose cannot be easy, even if you hate slacks.Nancy: To tell the truth, it took a lot of time for me to get comfortable with your new self, your new presentation, learning how to deal with society. Women spend their whole lives knowing what makeup works well for them, what clothing works on them.For peo ple like me ,it takes a while to do.I am tall,when I walk into a room,it’s like someone from the NBA showed up.Trying to find clothing that fits me is just not that easy.Reporter: How do the people you work with, the ones who knew you as Neil, consider you now?Nancy:The response for me was really positive. we all joked about wearingpantyhose, whether “my condition” was contagious ,those sorts of things .But when all was said and done and the dust settled, everyone got back to work .Now if you were to talk with anyone who works with me, they’d say,“what’s the issue? She’s just Nancy.”The whole transgender thing is well behind us.Unit 4 Family■Warm Up■Listening Task 1The traditional American family is a "nuclear family”. A nuclear family refers to a husband and wife and their children. The average American family today has two or three children.In some cultures, people live close to their extended family. several generations may even live together. In America,only in a few cases does more than one household live under one roof.American values are valued in the home. Many homes are run like a democracy. Each family member can have a say. A sense of equality often exists in American homes. Husbands and wives often share household chores. Often parents give children freedom to make their own decisions.Preschoolers choose what clothes to wear which toys to buy.Young adults generally make their own choices about what career to pursue and whom to marry.Families in America, like those in every culture, face many problems. Social pressures are breaking apart more and more American homes. Over half of US marriages now end in divorce. More than one in four American children are growing up in single-parent homes. As a result, many people believe the American family is in trouble.Even so, there is still reason for hope, many organizations are working hard tostrengthen families. American almost unanimously believe that the family is one of the most important parts of life. They realize that problems in family life in recent years have brought serious consequences. As a result, more and more people are making their family a priority. Many women are quitting their jobs to stay home with their children.Families are going on vacations and outings together.Husbands and wives are making a concentrated effort to keep their family solid.The United Nations has declared 1994 the "International year of family".not just in America,but all over the world,people recognize the importance of a strong family bond.Unit 5 Health and Diet Warm Up Script/Answers Listening Task 1 ScriptI had just turned 40,and had spent most of my adult life working as a public relations consultant with little time to cook, let alone learn how to cook . But a few years ago I made a resolution to start writing down the recipes I had grown up with and posting them to my website .I come from a big family –six kids-and thought what a terrific family project to document our family recipes !both my father and mother are excellent home cooks ,mom raises us all ,and dad loves to eat well and enjoy the experimentation of trying out new recipes .I am spending a lot of time with my parents lately ;we cook a meal and then over dinner discuss the finer points of the proper way to proper way to prepare the dishes ,and whether or not a new recipe was worth the effort .Many of the recipes are family recipes, and many of them are those that we pick from cookbooks, magazines, and newspaper clippings we have collected over30years .but sometimes it is hard when you only a clipping. The recipes shown here use mostly whole food ingredients and only occasionally a few things, from cans or prepared foods .we believe in a varied , healthy diet ,using real butter ,real cream, eggs ,and protein from meat, fish, and cheese.About me, my name is Alice Bauer and I am a partner in a consulting firm in the san Francisco bay area. I maintain several weblogs in addition to Simply Recipes as part ofThanks so much for visiting Simply Recipes!■Listening Task 2 Real World Listening ScriptGrace: Welcome to “Let’s Get into Shape”!

学术英语视听说1听力原文Lesson1、1-1-4Lecturer:Today, I am going to talk to you about one of the most im portant historical figures in European history-Napoleon BonaparteLet's start by talking about his early life. Napoleon was born in 1769 on the island of Corsica. When he was only 10 years old, his father sent him to military school in France. Napoleon was not a very good student in most of his classes, but he excelled in mathematics and in military scienceWhen Napoleon was 16 years old, he joined the french army In that year, 1785,he began the military career that would bring him fame, power, riches, and finally, defeat. After eight years in the army, Napoleon became a general. He was only 24.Napoleon had many victories on the battlefield but he also became involved in French law and politics. And in 1804 at the age of 35,he became the first emperor of france.Napoleon had many victories on the battlefield, but he also became involved in French law and politics. And in 1804 at the age of 35,he became the first emperor of france Napoleon was many things. He was, first of all, a brilliant military leader. his soldiers were ready to die for him. as a result, Napoleon won many military victories. At one time hecontrolled most of Europe, but some countries, including England, Russia, and Austria, fought fiercely against Napoleon His defeathis end- came when he decided to attack russia In this military campaign against Russia, he lost most of his army .The great French conqueror died alone, deserted by his famil and his friends. The year was 1821,and Napoleon was only 51Lesson2、1-2-4Lecturer:The lecture for th is class is a b out the city of pom peii and the natural disaster that occurred there almost 2,000 years ago .Today many rich people w ho live in large m etropolitan areas such as beijing, Paris, and new york leave the city in the summer. They go to the m ountains or to the seashore to escape the city noise and heat. two thousand years ago, wealthy Rom ans did the sa me thing. They left the city of rom e in the summer. many of these wealthy rom ans spent their sum mers in the city of Pom peii, a beautiful city located on the bay of Naples, on the mediterranean Sea.In the sum mer of the year 79 Ce, a young rom an boy w ho later became a very fa m ous rom an historian w as visitin g h is uncle in Pompeii. The boy's name was pliny the younger.One day pliny w as loo king up at the sky. He saw a frightening sight. It w as a very large dark cloud. This b lack cloud rose hig h into the sky.What Pliny saw was the eruption of the volcano called Mount vesuvius. Rock and ash flew through the air. the city of Pom peii was at the foot of mount vesuvius When the volcano first erupted, many people were a ble to get out of the city and escape death. In fact, 18,000 people escaped the terrible disaster. U nfortunately, there was not enough time for everyone to escape. More than 2,000 people died. These unlucky people were buried alive under the volcanicash. The eruption lasted for about three days.When the eruption w as over, Pom peii w as buried under 20 feet of volcanic rock and ash. the city of Pom peii w as forgotten for alm ost 1,700 years.In the year 1748 an Italia n farmer was digging on his farm. As he was digging, he uncovered a part of a wall of the an cient city of Pompeii. Soon, archaeologists began to dig in the area. as time went by, much of the a ncient city of Pompeii w as uncovered. today tourists come from all over the world to see the ruins of the fa m ous city of pompeii. Lesson3、1-3-4Lecturer:I'd like to talk to you today about Steve Jobs. Jobs was someone who changed the world, because he changed the way people act every single day.Jobs was born in 1955. He grew up in California, in an area that later became known as the Silicon valley. When he was about 14 years old, hebecame friends with Stephen Wozniak Wozniak was what people in those days called an electronics whiz kid. He liked to design and build his own electronic equipment.In 1975,Wozniak started designing a personal computer. This at a time when nobody owned personal computers in their homes. Jobs was young. He was only 20. But even then he had a sharp business brain. Jobs convinced Wozniak that they could build these personal computers in his garage and sell them. a year later, Jobs and wozniak founded the apple computer Company, and started building and selling personal computers.When their apple ii computer went on the market in 1977,it became a huge success Suddenly there was a mass market for a computer that people could buy at a store and use sitting in their own homes The apple ll became the world's first mass produced personal computer, and by the age of 25,Steve Job was a millionaire.Jobs was brilliant in many ways, but he was not always very good at working with other people. He needed everything to be perfect, and this caused problems at Apple. In 1985,then, Jobs left Apple and started a new computer company and soon after he also went into business with a company called Pixar Pixar was a company trying to develop a system for using CGI-computer-generated imagery to be used in animated films And Jobs was just the person to help them.In 1995. Pixar released the movie tov story It was the first full-length, computer-generated, animated film. It was a big hit and Pixar became a very, very profita ble company and steve Jobs became a very, very rich man a billionaire in fact.In the 10 years after leaving apple jobs learned a lot about working with people and running a company. So when he returned to apple in 1995. he made many changes.Without Jobs, Apple was not doing so well. But Jobs had a also wanted them to be beautiful objects that people would e vision. He didn t only want personal computers to be useful, h enjoy looking at and using. In 1998,Apple introduced the imac a new desktop computer and the next year, the iBook, a new laptop computer. People thought both were very attractive and they immediately became very popular, and apple became profitable company again.But Steve Jobs wasnt finished. He had an even bigger vision He believed that personal computers would become the center the hub, of people's digital lives. So in 2001 Jobs introduced Apple's"digital hub"strategy He told the world that the computer would become the hub of all their electronic equipment. You could connect your camera, your music player and your video recorder to the computer and manage all your videos, photos, and music using iTunes, iMovie, iPhoto, and other apple programs, or"apps "Over the next 10 years, apple createdproducts that made jobs vision a reality. In 2001,the company introduced the iPod, which quickly became the most popular digital music player. In January 2007,Jobs introduced the iPhone and suddenly your phone became like a mini computer. It was like having an iPod, a camera, and a phone all in one device that you could hold in your hand. Then three years later he released the iPad onto the market. This really was a small, light computer that you could hold in your hand.And to use it all you had to do was touch the screen.Jobs'final vision before he died in Octo ber 2011 was Apple iCloud This is a system that allows apple users to store and manage their data and applications, not in their computer, but over the internet.Jobs may be gone, but there is no question that his vision lives on Jobs was someone who changed the world, not just for our own time, but maybe, who knows, for all time.Lesson4、1-4-4Lecturer:Let's talk a little today a out how roller coasters work and thephysics in volved in a ride on aroller coaster. I'm sure many of you have taken a ride on a roller coaster Person ally, I don't ever want to ride on one again. When i was young, my sister took me on a roller coaster, and I never forgot that frigh te n in g experience.A simple roller coaster consists o f a frame with a track on it .The track is very much like a train track. Th is track goes over a serie s of hillsand around curves following a path that ends at the sam e p lace it started, a train of cars travels around on th is track, very fast. the cars have two sets of w heels. 0 ne set of w heels rolls on top of the track and the other set of w heels rolls below the track the w heels below the track are there to keep the fa stm oving cars fro m co m in g o ff th e track. Roller- coaster cars, as you prob ably know, d on't have any m otors or es In stead, a ch ain pulls the cars up the first, tallest and steepest, h ill. A nd th isis how the ride begin s then at the top of the hill, the ch ain com es off th e cars, and gra v ity takes over. Gravity pushes the cars dow n the other sid e of th e h ill. T he taller a nd steeper the first h ill is, the fa ste r th e rid e willbe, and the farther the cars willtrave l.As the cars roll downhill, they gain speed. When they reach the botto m of the first h ill, the cars have enough speed a d e nergy to send the m up the next hill. A s th e cars n ear the top of the second hill, they begin to slow down. but then, th e cars reach the top of th at hill and start down the other sid e, a n d gravity again pushes them tow ard the ground. T his process repeats on each hill.OK, so let's go over th is process a g ain. First, the cars are u led b y a ch ain up th e first, h ig h est h ill. Then they go d ow n a very steep slope At th is point, there is enough energy to pull the cars up and over the next hill. a gain, w hen they reach the bottom of that hill, there is enough energy to clim b the next h ill. T he roller-coaster cars lose energy as therid e contin ues so the hills have to be sm aller toward the end of the track F in ally, we roll to a stop on ground level, rig ht w here we began. Tom orrow we will talk about the forces that press on our bod ies and keep us in our seats w hen the cars of a roller coaster travel in a loop th at puts us up side down.Lesson5、1-5-4Lecturer:What I'd like to talk to you about today is child language development i know that you all are trying to learn a second language, but for a moment, lets think about a related topic:How children learn their first language What do we know about how babies develop their language and communication ability?Well, we know babies are able to communicate as soon as they are bom-even before they learn to speak. At first, they communicate by crying. This crying lets their parents know when they are hungry, or unhappy, or uncomfortable. However, they soon begin the process of acquiring language The first stage begins a few weeks after birth. At this stage babies start to make cooing noises when they are happy. Then, at around four months they begin to babble Babies all over the world begin to babble around the same age and they all begin to make the same kinds of babbling noises. by the time they are ten months old however the babbling of babies from different language backgrounds sounds different. For example, the babbling of a baby in a Chinese-speaking home sounds different from the babbling of a baby inan English-speaking home.Babies begin a new stage of language development when they start to speak their first words. At first, they invent their own words for things. For example, a baby in an english speaking home may say"baba"for the word ball or" kiki"for These words are usually the names of things that are in the cat. In the next few months, babies will acquire a lot of words baby s environment, words for food or toys, for example.They will begin to use these words to communicate with others. For example, if a baby holds up an empty juice cup and says "juice, the baby seems to be saying, I want more juice"or May i have more juice?This word juice is really a one-word sentence.The next stage of language acquisition begins around 18months, when babies begin to say two-word sentences. They produce what is called"telegraphic" gether. The babies use a kind of grammar to put words speech, meaning they leave out all but the most essential words. an English-speaking child might say something like"Daddy, up, which actually means"Daddy, pick me up, please. Then, between two and three years of age, children learn more and more grammar. For example, they begin to use the past tense of verbs. In other words, they learn the rule for making the past tense of many verbs. The children begin to say things such as "I walked home" and"I kissed Mommy. They also overgeneralize this new grammar rule and make a lot of mistakes.For example children often say such things as"i goed to bed"instead of"I went to bed, or"leated ice cream" instead of"I ate ice cream In other words, the children have learned the past-tense rule for regular verbs such as walk and kiss, but they haven t learned that they cannot use this rule for all verbs Some verbs like eat are irregular and the past tense forms for irregular verbs must be learned individually. anyway these mistakes are normal. The children will soon learn to use the past tense for regular and irregular verbs correctly. They then continue to learn other grammatical structures in the same way.If we stop to think about it, it' s quite amazing how quickly children all over the world learn their language. It's also amazing how similar the process is for babies all over the world. You probably dont remember anything about how you learned your first language. But now that you' ve learned learning a first and secon d language may be similar and ss of something about the process, think about how the proc different. After class, why not make a list of some similarities and differences in the processes of child and adult lar learning. Then we'll talk about it next time we meed .Lesson7、1-7-4Lecturer:When people think about a robot, they often picture a machine that looks something like a human being. However, that' s not always the case!Most robots do not look much like a human being at all.They look like machines, because that's what most of them are industrial machines. Today, I'm going to talk mostly about industrial robots used in industry. These are robots that do work that for humans would be physicall demanding, repetitive, dangerous, or very boring.Most industrial robots work on an assembly line in a factory.For example, a robot might put lids on jars of fruit or stack boxes for shipping. In a car factory, robotic arms on th assembly line join the parts of the car together Other robots tighten the bolts on the cars wheels or paint the car. There are thousands of robots putting cars together in auto assembly plants. These robots are very precise when repeating a task. For example, they always tighten bolts with the same exac amount of force. They always move a heavy engine to exactly where it should be. and they always put a hole in the exact same place in every car door, hour after hour. These areexamples of robots doing the work humans could do, but the robots are doing the work more efficiently and precisely.So, just how do robots work?To do its job, a robot first needs a control system. This control system directs the robots mechanical parts. The control system of a robot is, so to speak, the robot' s"brain "So how does a robot "learn"which action to do first and which of its moving parts needs to do that action?The robot learns its job with the help and guidance of a human being.To teach an industrial robot to do something, first a person must use a handheld computer The computer is used to guide the robot's"arm and hand"through the motions it needs to do. Then the rob ot stores the exact movements in its computer memory. The robot has sensors to gather information. So now, the robot will use its sensors to direct its actions. The robot"tells"its moving parts what to do and then it performs the action. For example, to pick up and move a box, the robot first finds the box. next it decides the weight of the box. Then it decides how much force is needed to lift and move the box. and finally, it finds the correct place to put the box down. It repeats the process over and over until it is turned off It does the same job until it is given a new job and new program to follow.Some scientists think that rob ots of the future will be smarter than todays robots. They may also look more human like, or even animal-like. In fact, they may work and"think more like humans do. The industrial robots we've been talkin about so far today are automatic robots. They are known as automatic robots because they are programmed to follow a specific series of movements. Usually, they have parts that move, but they really don t travel around On the other hand, an autonomous machine can change its behavior in relation to its surroundings. For example, an autonomous robot with wheels or legs to move around can change direction when it senses that there is something in its way. arobot such as Hondas famous asIMo can detect the movements of people nearby. It can move to avoid bumping into someone coming toward it. asimo can even learn to dance by following themovements of a dancer next to it i don t know whether or when people will welcome autonomous machines or human-like robots. i guess that we will need to think about that in the robo-doctor, robo-teacher, robo-pet, or even our robo-Rriend future, Well need to think about how we will interact with or Think about that when you're doing your homework this evening. Would a robo-friend help you do your homework?。
