Jenny knows the professor is really good.But Harrison warns her that the professor is good, only if students are hand-workers, for he expects a lot.After class, Jenny admits that half of what the professor said went over her head, and Harrison assures her that a lot of what the professor said is explained in the reading. When Jenny asks to borrow Harrison notes, he says “on problem”, for they don’t have class until Wednesday. Finally, Harrison says participation in the discussion at the seminar is an important part of the education there.Task2: TFFFTTask3: 1B 2.C3. D 4.A 5.DFurther listening: task 1：BACDDFurther listening and speaking:Prince William in ChileScriptWhat goes into a prince’s education today? For Britain’s Prince William, nature played an important role in his education this last winter, as the future king went on a 10-week expedition in Chile with Raleigh International.The experience was a very different one for the prince. He kayaked in ocean fjords, tracked a rare deer, and was stranded on a beach during a storm.He also got used to sleeping on the ground—at times in a room filled with 16 people –and living in simple conditions.Those who took part, called “volunteers”, both contributed and learned. The prince helped locals build wooded walkways and buildings, and taught English to schoolchildren.He was described by other volunteers as hardworking, humble, and laid-back. As one s aid, “He struck a really good balance between working hard and having fun…getting on with everyone, and taking on the team spirit.”The prince said he liked being treated as an “equal” by other volunteer, who came from all walks of life. Around 20 percent were from problem backgrounds, some having had troubles with drugs or crime.It seems that there’s a lot more to education than university and books, and the Chilean forests and a little contact with regular people may do a lot of a British prince.Unit 3:Basic listening practice: CABCDListening in: task 1: After thirteen years marriage, the woman wants to divorce her husband, claiming he is irresponsible. When asked for the specific grounds for divorce, she gives these reasons: First, he keeps changing jobs, and the family has had to move four times in thirteen years, but she wants stability for her children and herself. Second, although he is paying the bills, they just live around the poverty line. Her children are being teased by other children for not dressing good clothes. Also, they had to live in a small apartment and drive an old car, though it still runs. Worse still, the husband yells at her, though she admits she also yell at him and calls him names. As for the divorce arrangements, the woman will give the husband only visitation rights instead of joint custody. Moreover, the woman will demand half of all they have and large support payments.Task2: FTFFTTask3: CABBBFurther listening: task1 BDADCFurther listening and speaking:Prince More Precious Than the Diamondthe last word I'dconsider(2) I consider dating(3) my reservations about dating(4) date Maria(5) my son's response to her(6) marry me(7) accepted(8) a family of three(9) remarriage failuresa picture of the three of us(10)married and divorced eight(11) timeswould have no such pain(12)my son(13)a wife(14)my loneliness and anxiety(15)brought the issue up(16)lukewarm(17)mechanical(18)warmed up to her(19)ripe(20)the right choice(21)People have long known the saying “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.” But this may be changing. There’s a new stone on the gem market, tanzanite, and it is giving diamonds some serious competition.Tanzanite was one of a number of gems discovered in East Africa in the 1960s. The new colors and varieties changed the gem market. But the real gem among these stones was tanzanite, discovered in 1967 in Tanzania. The stone was named after its country of origin by New York’s Tiffany and Co. which introduced it to the world. It draws one’s attention quickly with its color—blue, purple or bronze, depending on the direction it is viewed from.More important for its value, though, is its rarity. Tanzanite has been found in only one small area, near Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania. And its supply will probably be fully mined in the next two decades.As one mining official puts it, “It should never have really occurred in the first place. It did occur. And only this one deposit on this entire planet that is known…makes it more than a thousand times rarer than diamonds. And certainly within the next 15 to 20 years, there will be no more tanzanite to be mined.”The current value of the tanzanite market, at U.S. $10 billion, is equivalent to that of diamonds. And so another saying “Diamonds are forever” may lose some of its meaning.Unit4Basic listening practice: CDACBListening in: task 1: After thirteen years marriage, the woman wants to divorce her husband, claiming he is irresponsible.

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.Unit5II.

As the party ends at two, he intends to have all those brochures distributed by one- thirty. But Nora disagrees, saying that those brochures will make him look like a green hand. She advises him just to hand out business card and leave his work at the door. But Chris wonders how he can get anything out of this if she can’t talk business. To this, Nora insists that he should just get a card for a card. Chris catches on quickly and knows that he can hand out business cards now and follow up on Monday. Finally, Nora suggests splitting up so that they can cover more ground. Chris feels it will be a piece of cake and promise to meet her back there at two.Task 2: Keys: FTFFTTask3: Keys: 1. D 2.C 3.

Litigation is never a good thing for any industry or any company. We have said for some time that we would go the extra mile to resolve this case. That is exactly what we did in reaching this settlement.The experience of the past the three years hs had a profound impact on me personally and on our company. We are in a fast-moving, competitive industry, but we will focus more on how our actions affect other companies.John Ashcroft, U.S Attorney General:Today we are announcing a strong, historical settlement reached by the Department of Justice and the Microsoft Corporation that will put an end to Microsoft’s unlawful conduct, bring effective relief to the marketplace, and ensure that consumers will have more choices in meeting their needs of computing and working with their computers. This settlement is the right result for consumers and for businesses, the right result for the economy, and the right result for government. It provides prompt, effective, certain relief for consumers and removes the uncertainty in the computer market, a critical factor in today’s economy.Unit 6II. Basic Listening PracticeKeys: 1.C 2.C3.

Pamela complains that the government just squanders people’s hard-earned tax money on some unnecessary projects. But Alan does not mind paying taxes, saying it means he is earning money, which is better than living on charity. Pamela insists that if the poor would just get jobs, taxes would bee much lower. Alan disagrees, saying most people would rather work than receive charity, but sometimes there are no jobs that they are trained for. But Pamela asserts that the jobless people should take the needed training to upgrade their skills and knowledge to become more employable. Alan believes that some of the government tax dollars are already directed to training and upgrading programs that help the poor to get jobs. When Pamela says some of the unemployed don’t want to work, preferring to have handouts, Alan points out that some people have to be educated to realize how much fuller their life would be if they ere not dependent on charity. Pamela is, however, more down-to-earth, thinking the government should attack unemployment by reducing the tax rate. That would give people more money; then, they would spend more, which would create more jobs for the poor.Task 2: Keys: TFTFTTask3: Fighting Teen SmokingKeys: 1D 2.A 3. B 4.C 5.cVI.

If today, after the horror of 11 September, we see better and we see farther, we will realize that humanity is indivisible.New threats make no distinction between races, nations, or regions. A new insecurity has entered every mind, regardless of wealth or status. A deeper awareness of the bonds that bind us all, in pain and in pro sperity, has gripped young and old…because beneath the surface of state and nations, ideas and language, lies the fate of individual human beings in needed. Answering their needs will be the mission of the United Nations in the century to come. Thank you very much.Uint7II. Basic Listening PracticeKeys: 1.B 2.D 3. A 4.A 5.CIII. Listening InTask 1:While being interviewed by Martha, Ed said more people in his culture respect nature ever before. When asked about the most serious environmental problem in the world today, he mentioned the damaged ozone layer and the pollution in big cities.Ed learned about environmental problem at school. A lot of clubs and some TV programs promote environmental safely. He believes that students should learn more about the environment at school. Then they can be more aware of all the problems and prevent more problems from occurring.When asked about a new law he would like to create to help the environment, he said that when people throw away their cigarette butts, they have to throw them in the garbage bin. They should be fined if they throw them on the floor.Personally, Ed is so set against littering that he never litters. He always throws his trash into the garbage bin.Task 2: Keys: FTTFTTask3: A Mild EI NinoKeys: 1. C 2.A3. D 4.B 5.CVI.

As a result, there has been much less snow than usual—meaning no snowmen, no snowballs and possible not enough snow for Santa to ride his sleigh on.More important for local residents, it may mean fewer tourists, as well. Santa’s wintry hometown normally attracts thousands of visitors each year, and millions of dollars. Anne Pelttari-Bergman, the town’s tourist director, worries that the town could be in trouble if snow levels do not return to normal. She explains: “Snow is really important for us, of course. For Santa Claus, for Christmas tourism, and also for our winter tourism because winter is our best season. It is really important for us.”Weather experts and town residents are hoping this warm winter is a one-time thing. Few people can imagine a holiday when even Santa does not have a white Christmas.Unit 8Basic Listening Practic e: CBCDAListening in: Task 1: security checks, searched, fear, carry-ons, checking, at work, greater, less likely, precautions.

The photos come from countries all over the world, so it’s just a normal part of life for Griffiths to travel. Living in other countries is not for everyone, but for Griffiths and her children, it’s an adventure. Her children especially love the Middle East, and their experiences in that part of the world helped them to learn about other cultures. Griffiths’ work can also be dangerous. Traveling is not always safe. In the Galapagos Islands, Griffiths found herself in the water with sharks one day! Besides writing and taking pictures, Griffiths teaches photography skills to people who want to become photographers. They know they are learning from one of the best photographers in the world.Unit 2Listening 1A.

The group of researchers tickled the necks, feet, hands, and armpits of young apes. The team recorded more than 800 of the resulting laughs on tape. The research suggests that the apes’ panting noise is the sound of laughter. They think that this panting is the basis for human expressions of joy—the “ha-ha” sound we make when we laugh. When we find something funny, such as a joke, we laugh. When apes find something funny, such as a tickle, they laugh. Humans find many situations funny—such as jokes, tickles, TV comedy shows—but we are not unique because animals laugh, too.Unit 3Listening 1A. 1.He is an anthropologist. 2. The durian fruit.3.

Spain 3. “a little bit of heart ” 4. work 5. hot teaListening 3 DictationDo you like to eat bugs? Some people do, and some people don’t. But here’s the surprise—even if you don’t like eating insects, you are probably eating them anyway.In the United States, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allows some insects and insect parts in food, as long as they don’t make people sick. For example, for every 3.5 ounces, chocolate can have up to 60 insect parts and peanut butter can have 30 insect fragments, according to the FDA. Tomato sauce can’t con tain more than 30 fly eggs per 3.5 ounces.And food is not the only place you can find insects and insect parts. Cochineal insects give ared or pink coloring to foods, lipsticks, and beverages. The small bugs are listed as “cochineal extract” on the ingr edient list. The fact is—you can’t always avoid eating insects.Unit 4Listening 1A. b. A straw house is another way to “go green”.B. 1. Building a house from wood means cutting down trees and damaging the environment. Strawis a kind of grass, and it takes little energy to grow.2. After the straw is dry, farmers use a machine to make bales—large rectangular bricks of straw.Then, builders build walls with the bales. When they finish the walls, they cover them with plaster inside and outside.3. Furbish used about 900 straw bales for his family’s house. His company used about 4,000bales to build an elementary school in Maryland.Listening 2A. 1. T 2. F (Y ou don’t have to be a Mexican citizen to own property here.) 3. T1.Baja California has coasts on the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, so tourists can enjoy sealife such as dolphins, whales, and unusual fish. Its beautiful mountains and deserts are also excellent for hiking and sightseeing.2. The housing growth in Baja California may cause damage to the environment as more and more people move in. Baja California is also very dry, so having enough drinking water for everyone is another concern.Listening 3 DictationIn Barcelona, Spain, both visitors and residents of the city know about the architect Antoni Gaudí. The Casa Milà is perhaps his best-known building. From the outside, the walls look like natural stone. On the roof, several large, unusual works of art are actually chimneys—they carry away gases from cooking and heating from inside the apartments.The Casa Batlló is another of Gaudí’s apartment buildings. The outside of the building is very colorful, and it’s easy to see that Gaudí was an artis t as well as an architect. Not every apartment is spacious, but each apartment has a balcony, so residents can stand outside their bedrooms or living rooms and see the street below.Unit 5Listening 1A. 1-3 b c cB 1. T2. F (The number has actually grown.)3. F (They seem to find it appealing.)4. F (James Joyce is one of the most respected modern writers.)Listening 2A.1-3 c b aListening 3 DictationAncient Egyptians knew that death was inevitable—all living things eventually die— but in an attempt to make the afterlife as comfortable as possible, mummies were accompanied by things they would need in the future. The items buried with ancient Egyptians represented important aspects of their daily lives—everything from furniture to cooking oil. They believed that in the afterlife, these items became real and useful to the dead person. That idea may not seem rational nowadays, but ancient Egyptians didn’t distinguish between human needs before and after death. They even mummified pieces of meat to represent the food the dead person would need.Unit 6 Analytical ListeningListening 1ListeningA.√Astronauts often don’t get enough sleep.√Astronauts wear special spacesuits to protect their bodies.√Astronauts need to get a lot of exercise in space.B. 1-4 c c a bC. 1.

Seeing the stars at night, however, is not easy to do in a city. Streetlights and lights from businesses and advertisers shine into the night sky, and only the brightest stars can be seen.The dark-sky movement wants to change this. They argue that seeing the night sky is important for everyone——not only for astronomers. They say that outdoor lighting affects human health and wildlife, and they recommend simple things such as streetlights that only let light shine down at the street, not up at the sky.Unit 7Listening 1ListeningA.Slide 1: Location: Montreal, CanadaImportance: 2. brings people togetherSlide 2: Location: Madrid, SpainType of art: chalk artSlide 3: Location: California, U.S.A.Type of art: sand artSlide 4: Time to finish a piece: 7 hoursReason art is temporary: ocean tides erase the artListening 2ListeningA. b. to inform the audience about a musicianB.(1) Peace, Love(2) two (3) left the trio and began his solo career(4) a singer (5) he can’t play every note on the ukulele (6) play alone Viewing the WorldWhile ViewingC. 1. ninth 2. art 3.

The Silent Evolution is a group of sculptures on the ocean floor. Taylor used real people as models when he was making them. There are more than 400 of them, and together, they form one huge piece of art. It’s especially interesting because Taylor did not repeat any of the sculptures —each one is a sculpture of a different person. The sculptures are temporary, because sea animals and plants make their homes on them, and in time, and a new reef will form.Listening 2A.1. It began at zoos in the United States.2.

Here in Guanajuato, music and dancing are a big part of life. There are a lot of festivals here, and many kinds of music, but my favorite kind of music is traditional Mexican music—the kind of music my grandparents and great-grandparents listened to.I’m a folk dancer, and I love to perform at special events. To be a folk dancers, you have to love the culture and the music here. That’s the most important thing, but we also need to work hard and practice a lot. We dance in groups, and every person has to know the steps. And you can’t buy traditional folk dancing dresses at the store, so we have to make our own. We wear traditional dresses that only come from this part of Mexico.Unit 8Further ListeningListening 1A. 1. baby talk 2. rhesus monkeys 3. 1) a raised pitch 2) a swooping, sing-song styleB. 1.

Female monkeys also wag their tails to get the infants’ attention.4. The intonation is important in a monkey baby talk.5. It’s possible that monkey moms don’t use baby talk with their own offspring because theysimple don’t need to use it since their babies are not novel to them and they are constantly face-to-face.Listening 2A. 1.b 2. c 3. aB. 1. a collision between two or more satellites2. small pieces of metal3. ways to reduce the number of objects in orbit4. use old satellites for missile target practice5. catch space garbage and bring it down into the earth’s atmosphere to burn upListening 3 DictationEach year, National Geographic names several new Emerging Explorers.

I hate to ask, but could I copy your homework for Thursday? It's terrible to ask, but I'm late with homework. I also have some missing assignments and have poor scores for incomplete work. The worst thing is I really don't understand the material.W: Sorry, but it's against my principles, and it doesn't really help you anyhow. Also, my biggest concern is I'd get in trouble.M: But it's not really cheating. It's not a test, and if the professor discovers I copied you, I'll tell her it was my fault only.W: Copying homework is cheating too, and if you take words and ideas that belong to someone else and you use them like you created them, that's considered plagiarism, which is cheating. The professor will still punish me even if you tell her you did it without my permission.M: I didn't know the university's policy was so strict!W: All universities expect this. Copying doesn't help you learn anything anyhow. You save time on homework and get points, but it won't teach you what you should learn, and learning's the most important thing! You'd never pass the exams, either.M: You're right, but I have so much stress right now.W: You could drop one class to reduce your homework. Maybe work fewer hours too.

DUnderstanding a passage P89The English Channel, which is the large body of water between the UK and France, has been the easiest way to move between the two countries. In the past, the only way this could happen was on a boat. However, beginning as early as 1802, people were already thinking about making a passage under the water to connect the two countries.The UK started digging the passage in 1987, and France started digging from its side a year later. They used heavy machines to cut through the rocks under the sea for three years before the two sides met in 1990. They were worried the two sides would not meet exactly in the same place, so they used a lot of technology to make sure they would.Four years later, after a cost of 15-20 billion dollars, the passage began operation. The finished passage is 31 miles long and goes as deep as 250 feet below the water. The train can go 100 miles per hour and takes about 30 minutes to cross the water.People who want to visit France or the UK have two choices. They may take the passenger train, or if they wish to take their cars, they may take the shuttle. The shuttle permits people todrive their cars onto special trains. People can leave their cars and walk around during the train trip if they wish. When they get to the other side, they just drive off the train in their cars.KEY1. What did people do in 1987 for the English Channel? A2. What did people worry about when they were digging the passage? D3. What can people do if they want to visit France or the UK in their cars? CHomeworkSection A: Understanding news reportsNews report 1 P97The Egyptian Radio and Television Union has told eight women that they are too fat and must go on a diet. The union even told these women that they have only one month to lose enough weight. Until they do, these women aren't permitted to present news during television programmes.Many Egyptians are upset about this requirement because it's unfair to women. They say that the women should be judged on their professional behaviour. They also have doubts about what the perfect size is supposed to be. After many people complained about this requirement, the union said the women would be paid whilst they were losing weight and not working, but they still must become thinner.However, there are some people who support the decision to make these women lose weight. What may be surprising is that the leader of the union is female and used to be a television presenter herself.KEY1. What did the Egyptian Radio and Television Union do? B2. Why are many Egyptians upset about the union's requirement? A3. What is surprising? BNews Report 2 P98In the US State of Louisiana, People are living through one of the biggest natural disasters in recent years. The towns received so much rain that entire neighborhoods were completely filled with water. One town received 31 inches of rainfall in just 15 hours. At this time, 13 people have died from this disaster.During the huge flood, many people became heroes by take their boats out to find people suddenly trapped in their homes surrounded by water. They risked their lives to rescue many people and their pets and take them to safety.Now over 40,000 people have no place to go. Their homes are too damaged, and all of their furniture and belongings are ruined. Currently, they must stay in Red Cross emergency shelters. The US government is sending help, but local officials are asking people to volunteer to help remove the huge amount of mud and trash that cover the streets and surround the homes.KEY1. What did many people in Louisiana do against the huge flood? D2. What are the local officials doing after the huge flood? CSection B Understanding passages P99In a busy world, it's difficult to find time to meet a special person to date. Due to demanding schedules, many young, single people use online dating to ease their loneliness. How good is this method compared to traditional methods?One big advantage is the number of people someone can meet using online dating websites. It can take months to meet people at parties, school or work, but online, a person can meet dozens of people in one day.Another benefit of online dating is that single people can use special websites that look for specific people. This helps people find others who have similar interests or situations and be more attracted to each other. For example, there are dating websites for single parents or for people who love dogs.One of the biggest advantage is the ability to communicate efficiently. People can contact each other at different times of the day without worrying about their schedules, and it's a good way to see if they feel interested in each other before meeting. Another advantage is that it's safer for a woman to get to know a man without putting herself in danger if the man is aggressive.Of course, the biggest problem with online dating is people don't really know if the other person is being honest. Sometimes, they use other people's pictures and pretend to be them, and when the couple finally meets, they're shocked to see what they really look likes. They may also lie about their career or wealth, so people have to be careful when using online dating websites. KEY1. What is the passage mainly about? C2. Why are special dating websites helpful to single people? C3. What is one of the biggest advantages of online dating? B。

Jenny knows the professor is really good.But Harrison warns her that the professor is good, only if students are hand-workers, for he expects a lot.After class, Jenny admits that half of what the professor said went over her head, and Harrison assures her that a lot of what the professor said is explained in the reading. When Jenny asks to borrow Harrison notes, he says “on problem”, for they don’t have class until Wednesday. Finally, Harrison says participation in the discussion at the seminar is an important part of the education there.Task2: TFFFTTask3: 1B .

He kayaked in ocean fjords, tracked a rare deer, and was stranded on a beach during a storm.He also got used to sleeping on the ground—at times in a room filled with 16 people –and living in simple conditions.Those who took part, called “volunteers”, both contributed and learned. The prince helped locals build wooded walkways and buildings, and taught English to schoolchildren.He was described by other volunteers as hardworking, humble, and laid-back. As one said, “He struck a really good balance between working hard and having fun…getting on with everyone, and taking on the team spirit.”The prince said he liked being treated as an “equal” by other volunteer, who came from all walks of life. Around 20 percent were from problem backgrounds, some having had troubles with drugs or crime.It seems that there’s a lot more to education than university and books, and the Chilean forests and a little contact with regular people may do a lot of a British prince.Unit 3:Basic listening practice: CABCDListening in: task 1: After thirteen years marriage, the woman wants to divorce her husband, claiming he is irresponsible. When asked for the specific grounds for divorce, she gives these reasons: First, he keeps changing jobs, and the family has had to move four times in thirteen years, but she wants stability for her children and herself. Second, although he is paying the bills, they just live around the poverty line. Her children are being teased by other children for not dressing good clothes. Also, they had to live in a small apartment and drive an old car, though it still runs. Worse still, the husband yells at her, though she admits she also yell at him and calls him names. As for the divorce arrangements, the woman will give the husband only visitation rights instead of joint custody. Moreover, the woman will demand half of all they have and large support payments.Task2: FTFFTTask3: CABBBFurther listening: task1 BDADCFurther listening and speaking:Prince More Precious Than the Diamondthe last word I'd consider(2) I consider dating(3) my reservations about dating(4) date Maria(5) my son's response to her(6) marry me(7) accepted(8) a family of three(9) remarriage failures(10) a picture of the three of us(11) married and divorced eight times(12) would have no such pain(13) my son(14) a wife(15) my loneliness and anxiety(16) brought the issue up(17) lukewarm(18) mechanical(19) warmed up to her(20) ripe(21) the right choicePeopl e have long known the saying “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.” But this may be changing. There’s a new stone on the gem market, tanzanite, and it is giving diamonds some serious competition.Tanzanite was one of a number of gems discovered in East Africa in the 1960s. The new colors and varieties changed the gem market. But the real gem among these stones was tanzanite, discovered in 1967 in Tanzania. The stone was named after its country of origin by New York’s Tiffany and Co. which introduced it to the world. It draws one’s attention quickly with its color—blue, purple or bronze, depending on the direction it is viewed from.More important for its value, though, is its rarity. Tanzanite has been found in only one small area, near Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania. And its supply will probably be fully mined in the next two decades.As one mining official puts it, “It should never have really occurred in the first place. It did occur. And only this one deposit on this entire planet that is known…makes it more than a thousand times rarer than diamonds. And certainly within the next 15 to 20 years, there will be no more tanzanite to be mined.”The current value of the tanzanite market, at . $10 billion, is equivalent to that of diamonds. And so another saying “Diamonds are forever” may lose some of its meaning.Unit4Basic listening practice: CDACBListening in: task 1: After thirteen years marriage, the woman wants to divorce herhusband, claiming he is irresponsible.

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.Unit5II.

Pamela complains that the government just squanders people’s hard-earned tax money on some unnecessary projects. But Alan does not mind paying taxes, saying it means he is earning money, which is better than living on charity. Pamela insists that if the poor would just get jobs, taxes would bee much lower. Alan disagrees, saying most people would rather work than receive charity, but sometimes there are no jobs that they are trained for. But Pamela asserts that the jobless people should take the needed training to upgrade their skills and knowledge to become more employable. Alan believes that some of the government tax dollars are already directed to training and upgrading programs that help the poor to get jobs. When Pamela says some of the une mployed don’t want to work, preferring to have handouts, Alan points out that some people have to be educated to realize how much fuller their life would be if they ere not dependent on charity. Pamela is, however, more down-to-earth, thinking the government should attack unemployment by reducing the tax rate. That would give people more money; then, they would spend more, which would create more jobs for the poor.Task 2: Keys: TFTFTTask3: Fighting Teen SmokingKeys: 1D 3. BVI.

As a result, there has been much less snow than usual—meaning no snowmen, no snowballs and possible not enough snow for Santa to ride his sleigh on.More important for local residents, it may mean fewer tourists, as well. Santa’s wintry hometown normally attracts thousands of visitors each year, and millions of dollars.Anne Pelttari-Bergman, the town’s tourist director, worries that the town could be in trouble if snow levels do not return to normal. She explains: “Snow is really important for us, of course. For Santa Claus, for Christmas tourism, and also for our winter tourism because winter is our best season. It is really important for us.”Weather experts and town residents are hoping this warm winter is a one-time thing.

After having consumed more drink than they should, they decided to sleep it off by staying overnight in a hotel. The desk clerk charged them $30.00 for the room. Shortly afterwards the desk clerk realized that he had overcharged the three men by $5.00. He calls the bellboy over, gives him the $5.00 and explains to him that he had overcharged the three men and asked him to go up and give them the $5.00. On his way up, the bellboy thinks, "They will be happy to get a refund, so why don't I give them each $1.00? They will be happy and I will have picked up $2.00." But when he does that and gives each man $1.00, that means they only paid $9.00 each for the room, which is a total of $27.00; plus the $2.00 the bellboy pocketed is a total of $29.00. But they gave the desk clerk $30.00! Where did the extra $1.00 go?To solve the puzzle, you have to consider if it is a correct calculationto add "plus the $2.00 the bellboy pocketed."。

Listening InTask 1: Malls in the U.S.Malls are popular places for Americans to go. People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls have private security guards and sometimes even police stations. Parking is usually free, and the weather inside is always fine. The newest malls have beautiful rest areas with waterfalls and large green trees. The largest mall in the United States is the Mal of America in Minnesota. It covers 4.2 million square feet. It has 350 stores, eight nightclubs, and a seven-acre park! There are parking spaces for 12,750 cars. About 750,000 people shop there every week. The first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965 in Minnesota, but now malls are like town centers where people come to do many things. They shop, eat foods from all over the world, and see movies at theaters. Some people even get their daily exercise from the new sport of “mall walking.” Others go to malls to meet friends. In somemalls, people can see a doctor or a dentist and even attend church. In a word, people can do just about everything in malls.1.A2.C3.B4.D5.DTask 2: Online ShoppingW: Hey, Don, online shopping is so popular nowadays. Where is a good place to buy electronics online?M: Hmmm. I usually go to /doc/606aa9265901020207409cab.html . Sometimes I use eBay.W: Really, I’ve never used either of those. What are they all about?M: Well, eBay is an auction site. People put their stuff up for sale, and then other people log in and if they’re interested in one item, they bid on it. If you want to bid, you put in the amount that is the most you’re willing to pay. Then, by a certain deadline, the highest bid gets the item.W: Interesting. Then, if your bid is the highest, how do you pay?M: Well, you can usually send a check or money order. Or, you can use a system called PayPal which lets you pay by credit card online.W: Hoe do you get your stuff?M: Well, after the auction, eBay puts you directly in touch with the seller, and then you arrange for them to send it to you. You can check it out at /doc/606aa9265901020207409cab.html . W: I sure will. And how about that Amazon place you said?M: /doc/606aa9265901020207409cab.html is like an actual store, just online. They sell just about everything, either new or used items. I find the prices are usually a good deal cheaper than in a store.W: That’s what I’ve heard. I think that buying some things online, like books, or DVDs, is a really good idea, but I could never buy clothes online.M: I know what you mean. Things that you need to see, touch and feel first, before you buy, are hard to buy online. But then again, there’re lots of people who buy everything online!W: Do you think it’s safe? I mean, I’ve heard that people can steal your credit card number over the Internet.M: Well, I think that is does happen, but it’s very rare. All in all, it’s pretty safe.W: And what if you want to return something?M: I think that’s probably easier if you bought it in a real store. But, these online stores and sellers often have very good return policies. You just need to package it all back up again.W: A pain in the neck if you ask me!1. It’s an auction site where people put their stuff up for sale, and then other people log in and bid on it.2. They can send a check or money order, or use a system called PayPal which lets them pay by credit card online.3. The online store puts the buyer directly in touch with the seller, and then the buyer can ask the seller to send the items over.4. She could never buy clothes online.5. You just need to package it all back up again.Task 3: Beware of bargains!Ever since ancient times, people have always loved a bargain. If they think they are getting a “good deal” they will grab it up, whatever it is. Some people buy clothes they will never wear, or furniture they have no need or room for. Some even buy cars they can’t afford simply because the auto dealer is having a sale. There is an old saying: “You get what you pay for.” And another saying: “If a price seems too good to be true, it probably is.” Sometimes stores feat ure poorer quality goods at prices that are not really reduced. Some stores offer “unbelievable bargain prices” on unit costs, then add on hidden charges so that the final price is the same as the regular price—or sometimes even higher. There are bargains to be had, but the safest way is to find a retailer that you can trust, and to be cautious. The Romans had a saying: “Let the buyer beware!” The idea is as true today as it ever was. People have always loved a bargain. If they think they are getting a “good deal”, they will grab itwhatever it is. But you get what you pay for. Sometimes stores feature poorer quality merchandise at prices that are not really reduced. Some stores offer “unbelievable bargain prices” on unit costs, then add on hidden charges so that the final price is the same as or even higher than the regular price. There are bargains to be had, but the safest way is to find a retailer that you can trust, and to be cautious.Task 4: An AnnouncementWelcome to our Gift Shop!

Hmm, seems like something had gone wrong with your hard drive.Nicole: Really? Well, then could you do me a favor? I need to get it fixed right away. Would you give me a ride to the store? Robert: No problem. But it is still under warranty?Nicole: I’m afraid not. It’s several years old.Robert: Let’s hope the repairs are not too expensive.Model 3 I was wondering if you could possibly…Now Your TurnSusan: I wish I hadn’t gone to town this morning. I lost my purse at the shopping center.Michael: I’m sorry to hear that. What are you going to do now?Susan: I guess I’ll go back to check at the Lost and Found. And I was wondering if you could possibly lend me some money for the bus fare. Every cent I had was in my purse.Michael: I’ll be glad to. Here’s ten dollars, or do you need more?V. Let’s TalkJack: There certainly are a lot of CDs on sale here today. I hope the new Linkin Park is on sale. What were you thinking of picking up?Jane: Well, you know me, Jack. I love classic music. I was thinking of either the Beatles or Elvis’ “Greatest Hits.”Jack: Jane, when are you going to get with the times? Classic Rock is not classic; it’s just old.Jane: Yes, well, Pop Rock all sounds the same to me. For me, the Classic Rock really stands out. It’s what started it all. Jack: It’s also been played a million times. Don’t you get tired of it?Jane: No, never. Oh, there’s a salesperson; let’s ask him what they have on s ale. Salesman: Can I help you?Jack: Yes, my friend and I were looking for some CDs. We were hoping they would be on sale. My friend is looking for some older selections like the Beatles or Elvis’ “Greatest Hits.” I was really hoping you’d have the new Lin kin Park on sale, but if not, I’m also looking for Nickelback.Salesman: Well, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that all of the CDs you have asked for are on sale. The bad news is we have just sold out of Elvis’ “Greatest Hits”, bu t we can order one for you.Jane: (to her friend) Sold out of Elvis! That must mean he’s pretty popular. (to the salesman) You need to order it in? How does that work?Salesman: Well, if you give me your telephone number, when we get it, one of our staff w ill give you a call. Then you can some and pick it up. It shouldn’t be more than a week.Jane: Okay, well, I’ll take the Beatles CD right now, and you can order the Elvis for me. I’ll give you my phone number. Jack: And I will take the new Linkin Park for now. I’m afraid I only have enough for one CD.Salesman: The sale lasts till the end of the month. In the meantime, I’ll get your CDs for you, and I’ll take down your number for that Elvis order. Boy, he’s always a popular seller!Jane: I know!Column A Column BJack 2.3.4.8Jane 1.5.6.7For ReferenceAB, persuade A to buy the jeans.I’m telling you, the jeans will look g reat on you.A, give your impression of the jeans.They’re nice, but I think I’m going to look around a little first.B, push A to buy the jeans.We only have a few pairs left.A, try to beat down the price.They’re just too experience. If you give me a discount, maybe I’ll be interested. B, make an offer.Since these jeans seem exactly specially made for you, I’ll give you a five percent discount.A, bargain with B.Make it ten percent, and I’ll take them.BB, ask A whether he/she has done something wrong with the Walkman.Well, Sir/Miss. What exactly did you do with the Walkman when you got it home? A, complain and explain the problem. Why? I did nothing. I put it some batteries and turned it on, but it just wouldn’t work.B, offer a suggestion.Well, I’m afraid we don’t have any more of these models in stock. Would you mind changing it for another type?A, ask if you can get a refund.Not if it costs more money. Can I just get my money back?B, Answer A’s question and make an offer.I’m afraid it’s out store policy that we can only exchange it. But for only twenty dollars more, you can get a new model.A, give your opinion on B’s offer.But that’s what you told me about this model last week!VI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Does complaining work?Many people tolerate bad service or inferior products rather than make a complaint. They feel that complaining won’t do any good. In fact, they’re wrong: complaining works because companies don’t want dissatisfied customers. If you have a complaint, do something about it right away. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to getyour complaint settled. First, you can complain to one of the clerks. If they cannot help you, then ask politely to speak to a manager. Also, many stores have Customer Service representatives whose job is to solve problems in customer relations. These people are eager to assist because companies realize that dissatisfied customers can damage their reputations. You should always insist on your own rights as a customer. You have the right to receive a product you ordered in timely manner and in good condition. With airlines, you have the right to be on the flight you’ve booked. You can also expect a discount if you receive less than you have agreed upon—a hotel room with a view of a brick wall instead of an ocean view, for example.1. tolerate complaint2. do any good works dissatisfied customers3. longer harder settled4. Customer Service solve problems5. the right in a timely mannerTask 2: Credit CardsBecause credit cards have so many advantages, their use has become widespread. Unfortunately, however, credit cards are major sources of problems to society as a whole. First, there is the issue of fraud. Stolen credit cards add to the cost of all merchandise as companies write off these losses by adding to the cost of all goods. Second, there are the personal misfortunes. Credit card companies charge exceptionally high rates of interest (about 20%), but because the cards are so easy to use, many people but beyond their ability to repay. Also, there are often too generous limits to the amount of credit one can have; as a result, many people run up such high debts that they go bankrupt. Currently, it is easy for people to own many cre dit cards. When one credit card is “maxed out” they simply switch to another. Although individual credit cards have limits, the number of credit cards is not limited. People with ten credit cards, each with a $5,000 limit, have $50,000 of credit, even though they might not be able to pay all of their bills. This can easily lead to bankruptcy. Perhaps people should be given an absolute credit limit set as a certain percentages of their imcome.1.

Some stores offer “unbelievable bargain prices” on unit costs, then add on hidden charges so that the final price is the same as the regular price—or sometimes even higher. There are bargains to be had, but the safest way is to find a retailer that you can trust, and to be cautious. The Romans had a saying: “Let the buyer beware!” The idea is as true today as it ever was.People have always loved a bargain. If they think they are getting a “good deal”, they will grab it whatever it is. But you get what you pay for. Sometimes stores feature poorer quality merchandise at prices that are not really reduced. Some stores offer “unbelievable bargain prices” on unit costs, then add on hidden charges so that the final price is the same as or even higher than the regular price. There are bargains to be had, but the safest way is to find a retailer that you can trust, and to be cautious.Task 4: An AnnouncementWelcome to our Gift Shop!

And I was wondering if you could possibly lend me some money for the bus fare. Every cent I had was in my purse. Michael: I’ll be glad to. Here’s ten dollars, or do you need more?V. Let’s TalkJack: There certainly are a lot of CDs on sale here today. I hope the new Linkin Park is on sale.What were you thinking of picking up?Jane: Well, you know me, Jack. I love classic music. I was thinking of either the Beatles or Elvis’ “Greatest Hits.”Jack: Jane, when are you going to get with the times? Classic Rock is not classic; it’s just old. Jane: Y es, well, Pop Rock all sounds the same to me. For me, the Classic Rock really stands out.It’s what started it all.Jack: It’s also been played a million times. Don’t you get tired of it?Jane: No, never. Oh, there’s a salesperson; let’s ask him what they have on sale.Salesman: Can I help you?Jack: Y es, my friend and I were looking for some CDs. We were hoping they would be on sale.My friend is looking for some older selections like the Beatles or Elvis’ “Greatest Hits.” I was really hoping you’d have the new Linkin Park on sale, but if not, I’m also looking for Nickelback.Salesman: Well, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that all of the CDs you have asked for are on sale. The bad news is we have just sold out of Elvis’“Greatest Hits”, but we can order one for y ou.Jane: (to her friend) Sold out of Elvis! That must mean he’s pretty popular. (to the salesman) Y ou need to order it in? How does that work?Salesman: Well, if you give me your telephone number, when we get it, one of our staff will give you a call. The n you can some and pick it up. It shouldn’t be more than a week. Jane: Okay, well, I’ll take the Beatles CD right now, and you can order the Elvis for me. I’ll give you my phone number.Jack: And I will take the new Linkin Park for now. I’m afraid I only h ave enough for one CD. Salesman: The sale lasts till the end of the month. In the meantime, I’ll get your CDs for you, and I’ll take down your number for that Elvis order. Boy, he’s always a popular seller! Jane: I know!Column A Column BJack 2.3.4.8Jane 1.5.6.7For ReferenceAB, persuade A to buy the jeans.I’m telling you, the jeans will look great on you.A, give your impression of the jeans.They’re nice, but I think I’m going to look around a little first.B, push A to buy the jeans.We only have a few pairs left.A, try to beat down the price.They’re just too experience. If you give me a discount, maybe I’ll be interested.B, make an offer.Since these jeans seem exactly specially made for you, I’ll give you a five percent discount.A, bargain with B.Make it ten percent, and I’ll take them.BB, ask A whether he/she has done something wrong with the Walkman.Well, Sir/Miss. What exactly did you do with the Walkman when you got it home?A, complain and explain the problem.Why? I did nothing. I put it some batteries and turned it on, but it just wouldn’t work.B, offer a suggestion.Well, I’m afraid we don’t have any more of these models in stock. Would you mind changing it for another type?A, ask if you can get a refund.Not if it costs more money. Can I just get my money back?B, Answer A’s question and make an offer.I’m afraid it’s out stor e policy that we can only exchange it. But for only twenty dollars more, you can get a new model.A, give your opinion on B’s offer.But that’s what you told me about this model last week!VI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Does complaining work?Many people tolerate bad service or inferior products rather than make a complaint. They feel that complaining won’t do any good. In fact, they’re wrong: complaining works because companies don’t want dissatisfied customers. If you have a complaint, do something about it right away. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to get your complaint settled. First, you can complain to one of the clerks. If they cannot help you, then ask politely to speak to a manager. Also, many stores have Customer Service representatives whose job is to solve problems in customer relations. These people are eager to assist because companies realize that dissatisfied customers can damage their reputations. Y ou should always insist on your own rights as a customer. Y ou have the right to receive a product you ordered in timely manner and in good condition. With airlines, you have the right to be on the flight you’ve booked. Y ou can also expect a discount if you receive less than you have agreed upon—a hotel room with a view of a brick wall instead of an ocean view, for example.1. tolerate complaint2. do any good dissatisfied customers3. longer harder settled4. Customer Service solve problems5. the right in a timely mannerTask 2: Credit CardsBecause credit cards have so many advantages, their use has become widespread. Unfortunately, however, credit cards are major sources of problems to society as a whole. First, there is the issue of fraud. Stolen credit cards add to the cost of all merchandise as companies write off these losses by adding to the cost of all goods. Second, there are the personal misfortunes. Credit card companies charge exceptionally high rates of interest (about 20%), but because the cards are so easy to use, many people but beyond their ability to repay. Also, there are often too generous limits to the amount of credit one can have; as a result, many people run up such high debts that they go bankrupt. Currently, it is easy for people to own many credit cards. When one credit card is “maxed out” they simply switch to another. Although individual credit cards have limits, the number of credit cards is not limited. People with ten credit cards, each with a $5,000 limit, have $50,000 of credit, even though they might not be able to pay all of their bills. This can easily lead to bankruptcy. Perhaps people should be given an absolute credit limit set as a certain percentages of their imcome.1.

Weighing 1,600 pounds and standing six feet high, the Beckman & Whitley 192 camera was hard to Miss. The camera was used to take pictures of nuclear tests, and it was part of Samaras’ jo b to look after it. Samaras left the research institute and had other jobs, but he never forgot that camera. Twenty-five years later, he saw it was for sale. He bought it for just $600, the value of its metal parts.Now, he is using the camera to study lightning. With the help of money from National Geographic, he changed how the camera works. He replaced the film technology with digital sensors designed for deep space exploration. He also added new software written specially for the camera.He hopes the camera will help him take a photograph of the moment lightning starts. This is very difficult and he has been trying to get that shot since 2006.The burst of light comes from close to the ground and moves up to the sky. It is traveling at a third of the speed of light and the start of this flash takes as little as 200 milliseconds.The camera is fast enough to take the picture, but he must alsoknow where to point it and also “click” at the right time. Some people think he has no chance of getting the shot he wants. But Samaras is used to people telling him that what he’s trying can’t be done. Before he started to study lightning, he spent several years chasing after tornadoes. People didn’t think it was possible to record what it looks and feels like inside a tornado, but Samaras managed. He got some of the most accurate readings ever of wind speed, barometric pressure, temperature, and humidity.It is possible that he is right about how to photograph the start of lightning, too. “I’m still in hot pursuit of that image,” he said in 2012, adding, “And I won’t stop until this is done.”二1What kind of people make good nurses?A: Well, you have to be organized. For example, I’m in charge of my patients’ medicine. I have to give them the correct medicine, so I write everything down in a chart. I get the medicine. Then, I check on my chart that it’s the correct one. Nobody gets the wrong medicine that way.Q: You are well organized!A: Thanks. It has a big effect on my patients’ health, so it’s important to me. Nurses also have to be fit because the work is very physical.Q: What kind of physical work do you do?A: I stand or walk all of the time, and sometimes I have to lift patients up from their beds.: Is teaching a difficult job?A: Sometimes it is. Although the students are wonderful, the school has a rule I don’t like.Q: What kind of rule?A: Well, I teach math and science, and I think they’re very important subjects. But students here don’t have to take both subjects. They can take one or the other and still graduate.Q: Do you mean they can finish school and never take math, for example?A: Yes, they can. It’s not a good idea, in my opinion.2: Is teaching a difficult job?A: Sometimes it is. Although the students are wonderful, the school has a rule I don’t like.Q: What kind of rule?A: Well, I teach math and science, and I think they’re very important subjects. But students here don’t have to take both subjects. They can take one or the other and still graduate.Q: Do you mean they can finish school and never take math, for example?A: Yes, they can. It’s not a good idea, in my opinion.3What does an engineer do every day?A: Well, there are many kinds of engineers. I’m an industrial engineer. I look at our processes here at the factory, and I search for any problems.Q: What do you do if you find a problem?A: I give a presentation to my managers. We have a meeting, and I explain the problem to them. We try to find ways to solve it.Q: What happens next?A: They usually follow my suggestions.Q: So the managers here have a lot of respect for you.A: Yes, I believe they do respect me. It’s one of the reasons I like my job.三：Annie Griffiths is famous for her beautiful photographs. The photos come from countries all over the world, so it’s just a normal part of life for Griffiths to travel. Living in other countries is not for everyone, but for Griffiths and her children, it’s an adventure. Her children especially love the Middle East, and their experiences in that part of the world helped them to learn about other cultures. Griffiths’ work can also be dangerous. Traveling is not always safe. In the Galápagos Islands, Griffiths found herself in the water withsharks one day! Besides writing and taking pictures, Griffiths teaches photography skills to people who want to become photographers. They know they are learning from one of the best photographers in the World.第二单元一I’m Miranda. I don’t have much free time because I have a full-time job as a sales manager. I also have children, so I like to spend time with them. Sometimes we go to the beach, and sometimes we go to the park. For me, playing with my children has some important benefits: It makes me feel young and gives me great joy.My name is Mike. I’m a first-year literature student of the University of Pennsylvania. I enjoy taking walks in the park. I love the outdoors—seeing the trees and feeling the sun on my face. Basically, I’m always moving. Walking is good exercise. All that exercise keeps me healthy.My name is Cindy. What do I do in my free time? Well, my hobby is cooking. It’s a pretty common hobby, so I know a lot of other people who like to cook. Sometimes my friends come over and we cook together. We laugh and tell stories!I’m Tim. I’m a teacher. When I want to relax, I listen to music at home. My favorite music is classical, especially Mozart. There’s onlyone drawback to spending my free time at home: I almost never spend time outside.二In a big city such as Paris, people need places to live, shop, and work. Empty space can be hard to find. But the city government finds and keeps these empty spaces. People need places to spend their free time, and parks are places that most people enjoy.The city of Paris spends a lot of money to create more parks and gardens. Some people think that the cost is a big drawback. So, why does the city do this? What are some of the benefits of parks and other green spaces?• Better Health. Having places to relax after work helps people feel good. Parks allow people to get exercise such as walking and jogging. Being outdoors in the sunlight is good for people.• Better Environment. Trees help to clean the air and make cities cooler. Clean air helps people stay healthy.• Less Crime. Crime, such as robbery and murder, is common in big cities. Research says that there is less crime in places with green areas around them.• Improved Education. Parks are also a place for children to learn and play together. According to one study, children learn better after they play in a park.三New research says that apes laugh when they are tickled. Researchers at the University of Portsmouth led a “tickle team”. The group of researchers tickled the necks, feet, hands, and armpits of young apes. The team recorded more than 800 of the resulting laughs on tape. The research suggest s that the apes’ panting noise is the sound of laughter. They think that this panting is the basis for human expressions of joy—the “ha-ha” sound we make when we laugh. When we find something funny, such as a joke, we laugh. When apes find something funny, such as a tickle, they laugh. Humans find many situations funny—such as jokes, tickles, TV comedy shows—but we are not unique because animals laugh, too. 第三单元一二三第四单元一What is your house made of? Building a house from concrete or metal requires large amounts of energy and pollutes the air. Building a house from wood means cutting down trees and damaging the environment.Builder Michael Furbish has another idea: Use straw to make buildings. “Most other building materials require a lot of energy use in production and manufacturing at a factory,” explains Furbish. Straw is a kind of grass, and it takes little energy to grow. It’s not very nutritious for animals, however, so farmers normally dry it and use it for animals to sleep on.After the straw is dry, farmers use a machine to make bales—largerectangular bricks of straw. Then, builders such as Furbish build walls with the bales. When they finish the walls, they cover them with plaster inside and outside. That keeps out water as well as insects and small animals.Furbish used about 900 straw bales for his family’s two-story, three-bedroom house. His company used about 4,000 bales to build an elementary school in Maryland, U.S.A.Do you think a straw-bale house is for you? You won’t know until you try living in one, but for Furbish, it’s a greener way to build.二Q: What are vacation homes?A: They’re usually houses or condominiums. Families only use these homes during vacations, so they want them to be in beautiful locations.Q: Why is Baja California popular for vacations?A: It has coasts on the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, so tourists can enjoy sea life such as dolphins, whales, and unusual fish. Its beautiful mountains and deserts are also excellent for hiking and sightseeing.Q: Can anyone own a home in Baja California?A: Yes. You don’t have to be a Mexican citizen to own property here. Many vacation homes belong to people from other countries,especially Canada and the United States.Q: Are there a lot of new vacation homes for sale?A: Yes. Most of Baja California’s population lives in the north, in cities such as Tijuana and Mexicali. Recently, though, there has been rapid growth in the south, especially near Cabo San Lucas and La Paz. They want to build a lot of new houses and hotels quickly in those places.Q: Is everyone happy about the housing growth?A: No. Some people worry about damage to the environment as more and more people move in. Baja California is also very dry, so having enough drinking water for everyone is another concern.三In Barcelona, Spain, both visitors and residents of the city know about the architect Antoni Gaudí. The Casa Milà is perhaps his best-known building. From the outside, the walls look like natural stone. On the roof, several large, unusual works of art are actually chimneys—they carry away gases from cooking and heating from inside the apartments.The Casa Batlló is another of Gaudí’s apartment buildings. The outside of th e building is very colorful, and it’s easy to see that Gaudí was an artist as well as an architect. Not every apartment is spacious, but each apartment has a balcony, so residents can standoutside their bedrooms or living rooms and see the street below.第五单元一二三第六单元一Here on Earth, we like to look up at the stars in the night sky. In space, the stars look even more amazing!Astronaut Don Thomas flew into space on the space shuttle Columbia. He said later, “I could see many more stars. I also could see stars of different colors. Some are white. Others are blue, red, or yellow like our sun.”For most of us, stars in the night sky appear to twinkle. That’sbecause light from the stars travels through the earth’s atmosphere before we see it. Gases in the atmosphere are always moving, and that makes the light from the stars look unsteady. In contrast, “They don’t twinkle in space,” says Thomas. “They look like steady points of light.” Our own sun is a yellow, average-sized star. It formed around 4.6 billion years ago—probably in a very large cloud of gas and dust called a nebula. Bits of gas and dust came together, and then gravity began to pull the gas and dust into a ball. As the ball grew larger, its gravity grew stronger. Over time, the gravity became so strong that the ball collapsed and the gas heated up. A star was born!Stars last a very long time—for millions or even billions of years. Our sun will get cooler and die someday, but it won’t happen any time soon.二Telescopes of the pastAs far as we know, Galileo was the first astronomer to observe the moon, planets, and stars through a telescope. In the 17th century, telescopes were just glass lenses inside tubes made of wood. The lenses were shaped by hand to make things appear larger. Soon, however, people wanted bigger telescopes to be able to see farther into space. Large glass lenses were heavy and didn’t work well in atelescope, so in 1668, Isaac Newton invented something new: a telescope that used a mirror to reflect light. Soon, reflecting telescopes became the first choice for astronomers.Telescopes of the presentAs telescopes became larger, it became necessary to put them inside some kind of building. Observatories, buildings with telescopes inside for doing research, were built as early as the 18th century. With these larger telescopes, astronomers discovered planets that Galileo never knew about—Uranus and Neptune. Three of today’s largest observatories stand on top of Mauna Kea in Hawaii. At nearly 14,000 feet (4,300 meters), Mauna Kea is above 40 percent of the earth’s atmosphere. The Keck Observatory is among the observatories on Mauna Kea, and the mirrors in its two reflecting telescopes are 33 feet (10 meters) across! Their size allows astronomers to see far into space.三Most of the world’s people now live in or near cities, where doing most things at night is as easy as doing them during the day. Seeing the stars at night, however, is not easy to do in a city. Streetlights and lights from businesses and advertisers shine into the night sky, and only the brightest stars can be seen.The dark-sky movement wants to change this. They argue thatseeing the night sky is important for everyone—not only for astronomers. They say that outdoor lighting affects human health and wildlife, and they recommend simple things such as streetlights that only let light shine down at the street, not up at the sky.第七单元一Taylor grew up in Asia and Europe. As a child, he often swam among Malaysia’s coral reefs—places where small sea animals and plants grow on rocks or other solid objects on the ocean floor. Reefs are important for many kinds of ocean life, and they’re in tr ouble because of fishing and climate change.These days, Taylor still likes to swim, and he is conscious of the need to help ocean reefs and ocean life. His recent art project does exactly that.The Silent Evolution is a group of sculptures. Taylor used real people as models when he was making them. In a way, all the sculptures are copies of people, and they look just like them. The sculptures are in a public place, but they are not easy to see. They are on the ocean floor near Cancún, Mexico. There are more than 400 of them, and together, they form one huge piece of art. It’s especially interesting because the artist did not repeat any of thesculptures—each one is a sculpture of a different person.Taylor’s artwork is constantly changing. Sea animals and plants make their homes on the sculptures just as they do on natural reefs, and in time, a new reef will form. That means the sculptures are temporary, and if you want to see them, you need to do it soon. Taylor hopes the new reef that forms over the sculptures will last forever, or at least far into the future.二Elephant art began at zoos in the United States. Zookeepers there saw an elephant named Ruby using a stick to make marks in the dirt. They bought paints and brushes for her, and soon she was painting. In a book about Ruby, author Dick George says she loved to paint, and she even chose the colors.In Thailand, the Thai Elephant Conservation Center (TECC) now teaches elephants to paint. They think it might be good for them. The animals learn to hold the paintbrush, and trainers help them to move their trunks and paint pictures. Some paintings show real things such as flowers, trees, and even elephants, but according to the TECC, the elephants don’t understand th e pictures. They just follow the instructions of their trainers.However, some people think there could be more to it than that. Different elephants have their own painting styles, and theirpaintings become more detailed over time. And to people who buy the paintings, some elephants are better painters than others. For example, an elephant named Ramona may be the most famous elephant in Bali. Many people buy her paintings, and she seems to have an artist’s personality. Ramona likes to work with dark colors. She also stops and looks at a painting carefully before choosing the next color, and she only paints when she wants to paint.三My name is Alicia, and I live in the state of Guanajuato in central Mexico. Here in Guanajuato, music and dancing are a big part of life. There are a lot of festivals here, and many kinds of music, but my favorite kind of music is traditional Mexican music—the kind of music my grandparents and great-grandparents listened to.I’m a folk dancer, and I love to perform at special ev ents. To be a folk dancer, you have to love the culture and the music here. That’s the most important thing, but we also need to work hard and practice a lot. We dance in groups, and every person has to know the steps. And you can’t buy traditional folk da ncing dresses at the store, so we have to make our own. We wear traditional dresses that only come from this part of Mexico.第八单元一二三。

It is located on the campus of Seattle Center—the Seattle Center Monorail (单轨电车) runs through the building —and intends to appeal to multigenerational audiences through its collections, exhibitions, and educational programs. The outside of the Experience Music Project building was designed by Frank Gehry, a famous Canadian-American architect. Twenty-one thousand pieces of shaped metal cover the outside of the building in a mixture of textures and colors that seem to change in response to different light conditions.

The photos come from countries all over the world, so it’s just a normal part of life for Griffiths to travel. Living in other countries is not for everyone, but for Griffiths and her children, it’s an adventure. Her children especially love the Middle East, and their experiences in that part of the world helped them to learn about other cultures. Griffiths’work can also be dangerous. Traveling is not always safe. In the Galapagos Islands, Griffiths found herself in the water with sharks one day! Besides writing and taking pictures, Griffiths teaches photography skills to people who want to become photographers. They know they are learning from one of the best photographers in the world.Unit 2Listening 1A.

The group of researchers tickled the necks, feet, hands, and armpits of young apes. The team recorded more than 800 of the resulting laughs on tape. The research suggests that the apes’ panting noise is the sound of laughter. They think that this panting is the basis for human expressions of joy—the “ha-ha” sound we make when we laugh. When we find something funny, such as a joke, we laugh. When apes find something funny, such as a tickle, they laugh. Humans find many situations funny—such as jokes, tickles, TV comedy shows—but we are not unique because animals laugh, too.Unit 3Listening 1A. 1.He is an anthropologist. 2. The durian fruit.3. He thinks eating durian and other unusual foods shows respect for people and their customs.B. 1.

Spain 3. “a little bit of heart ” 4. work 5. hot teaListening 3 DictationDo you like to eat bugs? Some people do, and some people don’t. But here’s the surprise—even if you don’t like eating insects, you are probably eating them anyway.In the United States, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allows some insects and insect parts in food, as long as they don’t make people sick. For example, for every 3.5 ounces, chocolate can have up to 60 insect parts and peanut butter can have 30 insect fragments, according to the FDA. Tomato sauce can’t con tain more than 30 fly eggs per 3.5 ounces.And food is not the only place you can find insects and insect parts. Cochineal insects give ared or pink coloring to foods, lipsticks, and beverages. The small bugs are listed as “cochineal extract” on the ingr edient list. The fact is—you can’t always avoid eating insects.Unit 4Listening 1A. b. A straw house is another way to “go green”.B. 1. Building a house from wood means cutting down trees and damaging the environment. Strawis a kind of grass, and it takes little energy to grow.2. After the straw is dry, farmers use a machine to make bales—large rectangular bricks of straw.Then, builders build walls with the bales. When they finish the walls, they cover them with plaster inside and outside.3. Furbish used about 900 straw bales for his family’s house. His company used about 4,000bales to build an elementary school in Maryland.Listening 2A. 1. T 2. F (You don’t have to be a Mexican citizen to own property here.) 3. T1.Baja California has coasts on the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, so tourists can enjoy sealife such as dolphins, whales, and unusual fish. Its beautiful mountains and deserts are also excellent for hiking and sightseeing.2. The housing growth in Baja California may cause damage to the environment as more and more people move in. Baja California is also very dry, so having enough drinking water for everyone is another concern.Listening 3 DictationIn Barcelona, Spain, both visitors and residents of the city know about the architect Antoni Gaudí. The Casa Milà is perhaps his best-known building. From the outside, the walls look like natural stone. On the roof, several large, unusual works of art are actually chimneys—they carry away gases from cooking and heating from inside the apartments.The Casa Batlló is another of Gaudí’s apartment buildings. The outside of the building is very colorful, and it’s easy to see that Gaudí was an artis t as well as an architect. Not every apartment is spacious, but each apartment has a balcony, so residents can stand outside their bedrooms or living rooms and see the street below.Unit 5Listening 1A. 1-3 b c cB 1. T2. F (The number has actually grown.)3. F (They seem to find it appealing.)4. F (James Joyce is one of the most respected modern writers.)Listening 2A.1-3 c b aListening 3 DictationAncient Egyptians knew that death was inevitable—all living things eventually die— but in an attempt to make the afterlife as comfortable as possible, mummies were accompanied by things they would need in the future. The items buried with ancient Egyptians represented important aspects of their daily lives—everything from furniture to cooking oil. They believed that in the afterlife, these items became real and useful to the dead person. That idea may not seem rational nowadays, but ancient Egyptians didn’t distinguish between human needs before and after death. They even mummified pieces of meat to represent the food the dead person would need.Unit 6 Analytical ListeningListening 1ListeningA.√Astronauts often don’t get enough sleep.√Astronauts wear special spacesuits to protect their bodies.√Astronauts need to get a lot of exercise in space.B. 1-4 c c a bC. 1.

F（They are in Hawaii.）Listening 3 DictationMost of the world’s people now live in or near cities, where doing most things at night is as easy as doing them during the day. Seeing the stars at night, however, is not easy to do in a city. Streetlights and lights from businesses and advertisers shine into the night sky, and only the brightest stars can be seen.The dark-sky movement wants to change this. They argue that seeing the night sky is important for everyone——not only for astronomers. They say that outdoor lighting affects human health and wildlife, and they recommend simple things such as streetlights that only let light shine down at the street, not up at the sky.Unit 7Listening 1ListeningA.Slide 1: Location: Montreal, CanadaImportance: 2. brings people togetherSlide 2: Location: Madrid, SpainType of art: chalk artSlide 3: Location: California, U.S.A.Type of art: sand artSlide 4: Time to finish a piece: 7 hoursReason art is temporary: ocean tides erase the artListening 2ListeningA. b. to inform the audience about a musicianB.(1) Peace, Love(2) two (3) left the trio and began his solo career(4) a singer (5) he can’t play every note on the ukulele (6) play alone Viewing the WorldWhile ViewingC. 1. ninth 2. art 3.

The Silent Evolution is a group of sculptures on the ocean floor. Taylor used real people as models when he was making them. There are more than 400 of them, and together, they form one huge piece of art. It’s especially interesting because Taylor did not repeat any of the sculptures —each one is a sculpture of a different person. The sculptures are temporary, because sea animals and plants make their homes on them, and in time, and a new reef will form.Listening 2A.1. It began at zoos in the United States.2.

Here in Guanajuato, music and dancing are a big part of life. There are a lot of festivals here, and many kinds of music, but my favorite kind of music is traditional Mexican music—the kind of music my grandparents and great-grandparents listened to.I’m a folk dancer, and I love to perform at special events. To be a folk dancers, you have to love the culture and the music here. That’s the most important thing, but we also need to work hard and practice a lot. We dance in groups, and every person has to know the steps. And you can’t buy traditional folk dancing dresses at the store, so we have to make our own. We wear traditional dresses that only come from this part of Mexico.Unit 8Further ListeningListening 1A. 1. baby talk 2. rhesus monkeys 3. 1) a raised pitch 2) a swooping, sing-song styleB. 1. Female rhesus monkeys make unique vocalizations to infants to interact with infants to gettheir attention.2. “Girney” refers to a monkey sound.3. Female monkeys also wag their tails to get the infants’ attention.4. The intonation is important in a monkey baby talk.5. It’s possible that monkey moms don’t use baby talk with their own offspring because theysimple don’t need to use it since their babies are not novel to them and they are constantly face-to-face.Listening 2A. 1.b 2. c 3. aB. 1. a collision between two or more satellites2. small pieces of metal3. ways to reduce the number of objects in orbit4. use old satellites for missile target practice5. catch space garbage and bring it down into the earth’s atmosphere to burn upListening 3 DictationEach year, National Geographic names several new Emerging Explorers. They receive an award of $ 10,000. The money supports the work of young people at the beginning of their careers in many fields ——biology, engineering, music and others.Ken Banks is one of the emerging explorers. In places where people can’t access the Internet, his software lets them send a message or other kinds of information with an inexpensive device: a basic cellular telephone. They just connect the phone to a computer. Then they can send information from the computer without using the Internet.。

1. Which piece of art from the slide show is the most beautiful or interesting to you? Why?
Example Answer 1 The sand art is the most beautiful and the most interesting to me. I like the way the color of the sand and the curving lines look. It’s interesting because most artists want people to see their work, but Jim Denevan doesn’t seem to care whether people see his work.
