Book 4 Unit 2 Part D 听力原文Section A1. M: Good morning, Madam, could you tell me how old you are?W: Well, I don’t remember, doctor, but I will try to think. When I married, I was eighteen years old, and my husband was thirty. Now, my husband is seventy, I know.Q: How old is the lady?2. W: Hey, have you heard about this? The film star, Janice, was followed by paparazzi all the time. Isn’t it terrible?M: Everyone’s got a right to some privacy, but if you want to be famous, you have to accept the press and the media.Q: What does the man mean?3. W: How did you like the president’s speech tonight?M: Unfortunately I got home too late to watch it.Q: What are the two speakers talking about?4. W: I’ve noticed that you haven’t been talking to your roommate lately.M: It is supposed to be private, but you’ve got that right. And it’ s g oing to be a long time before I feel comfortable with him again.Q: What does the man mean?5. W: So, what did you think about the discussion at lunch? I didn’t realize people have such strong feelings about privacy.M: Are you kidding? That subject always touches a nerve.Q: What does the man mean?6. M: So, you and Julia are no longer roommates. I’m not surprised. Y ou two never did things very compatible.W: Yeah. Well, it’s not that we didn’t get along. We just didn’t have much in common.Q: What can be inferred about the woman?7. W: So how did you make out with your private German lessons last month? Any improvement? M: Let’s just say it was money down the drain.Q: What does the man mean?8. M: I can’t seem to find my calculator. Did I lend it to you by any chance?W: No, but you are welcome to use mine if you want, as long as I get it back by Thursday.Q: What does the woman mean?Conversation 1M: Good morning, Professor Harkens. I hope I am not disturbing you.W: Not at all, Tom. Come right in. I’m always in my office in the morning.M: I thought I’d get an early start on my research paper and would like to discuss my topic withyou if you have a moment.W: Of course. I recommend that all my students should discuss their topics with me before they begin their research. What do you want to work on?M: I was especially interested in your lecture on dinosaurs and the apparent mystery surrounding their extinction. I’d like to explore that question, but I’m not too sure how to go about it.W: Well, according to the most widely held theory, the dinosaurs died out because of the sudden cooling of the earth’s temperature. Y our textbook summarizes the conclusion of several paleontologists on this point.M: Didn’t you also mention a second theory in your lecture? That dinosaurs may simply have been replaced by mammals gradually and might not die out as a direct response to the cool weather?W: Y es. V an V ellen and Sloan are proponents of this theory. And I’ve put some of their articles on reserve in the library.M: V an V ellen and Sloan? I’d better write that down.W: Let me know how your work progresses, Tom. If you should run into any problems, be sure to stop by again.9. Who are the two speakers?10. What is the main focus of Tom’s research?11. Who most likely are V an V ellen and Sloan?Conversation 2W: Hew! This rowing is hard work. Let’s have the boat toward the old lighthouse now.M: Good idea. We can rest there for a while and eat our lunch. Then we can climb to the top platform where the light is before we visit the museum at the base of the lighthouse tower.W: Whenever I came out here, I thought about the family who used to live on the little island and take care of the light every night. What a lonely life that must have been!M: Y eah, to help ships find their way along shoreline, at night, they had to constantly make sure that the windows up around the light were clean and free of ice and snow.W: Dirty soot must have be en a problem. Didn’t they burn candles up there?M: This one used to have a kerosene lamp. But they changed over to electricity around 1920, I think.W: In New Port, Rode Island, people talked about a woman who was a lighthouse keeper for over 50 years. Ida Louise was her name. She saved a lot of people from dying in ship wrecks.M: Was her lighthouse out on an island like this one?W: On one even smaller and further from land. In stormy weathers, it was pretty dangerous for small boats.M: I understand the United States Coast Guard takes care of the most modern lighthouses.W: Y eah, but the light is automatic nowadays. The lighthouse is still a friendly sight at night though.M: Here we are. This lighthouse is the friendliest sight I’ve seen today. I’m exha usted.12. What are the people doing?13. What was a major problem for every lighthouse keeper?14. Why was Ida Louise famous?15. How does the man feel at the end of the conversation?Section BPassage 1More and more electronic devices and services in our daily life mean we have too many passwords and numbers to remember. Passwords help us protect our wealth and privacy; however, they also bring us a lot of troubles.Every day I need to remember much useless information. Every morning I turn on my cellphone — it needs a password. I get to work and I have to have access to my computer with a password. Like many people in Britain, I have two bank accounts. One needs a five-digit number and a password; the other needs a six-digit number and a memorable place name. I have an online savings account that needs a different password from the password for my bank account.Even if you never use a computer, you can be hit by the password overload. Look in your wallet. Y ou probably carry four or five credit cards. In these days of chip and pin, these are virtually useless if you do not have the magic four-digit numbers. The banks tell you not to have the same number for all your cards. Give me a break. Am I going to carry five different random four-digit numbers in my head? After all, I’m not Good Will Hunting.I’ve tried systems to help me remember —such as using the names of favorite films or members of my extended family; but none seems to work. So what is the solution?16. What do passwords bring to us?17. Which of the following does NOT need a password?18. What has the speaker tried to do to remember his passwords?Passage 2Internet is threatening our privacy. In the past, if a shop manager wanted to know you better, he had to rely on a good memory for detail. They came out from behind the counter to give you personalized service, browsed the shelves with you and made recommendations.In this digital marketplace, the “shop manager” may actually be a machine. It searches in its memory of information about you, analyzes it and creates a clear portrait of what you are likely to buy and do in the future. Not all companies approach personalization in the same way. For some websites, the approach is direct: they ask you to take a survey about what you like, and then make offers that match your interests. Another way is through IP addresses, the electronic place from which you browse the Web. and many other sites also compare individual’s browsing and buying habits to those of thousands and millions of other consumers in their databases. Using a technique called collaborative filtering, they can find out your likely interests. This is based on what they know about what like-minded people buy or do.But this new use of Internet begins to trouble some computer users. They worry that advertisers can track their private information without their knowledge, and that files about them might be put to ill use somehow, or shared with wrong people. Sometimes they just don’t like being watched.19. Which of the following do traditional shop managers NOT do to know their customers?20. In the digital market, which of the following does the “shop manager” NOT do?21. How does know about its customers?22. Which of the following troubles some computer users?Passage 3Every day you share personal information about yourself with others. It’s so routine that you may not even realize you’re doing it. Y ou may write a check at the grocery store, charge tickets to a ball game, rent a car, mail your tax returns, buy a gift online, call home on your cell phone, schedule a doctor’s appointment, or apply for a credit card. Each transaction requires you to share personal information: your bank and credit card account numbers; your income; your Social Security Number (SSN); or your name, address, and phone numbers.It’s important to find out what happens to the personal information you and your children provide to companies, marketers, and government agencies. These organizations may use your information simply to process your order; to tell you about products, services, or promotions; or to share with others.And then there are unscrupulous individuals, like identity thieves, who want your information to commit fraud. Identity theft — the fastest-growing white-collar crime in America —occurs when someone steals your personal identifying information, like your SSN, birth date, or mother’s maiden name, to open new charge accounts, order merchandise, or borrow money. Consumers targeted by identity thieves usually don’t know they’ve been victimized. But when the fraudsters fail to pay the bills or repay the loans, collection agencies begin pursuing the consumers to cover debts they didn’t even know they had.23. In which of these actions may people NOT reveal their private information?24. What may organizations use your private information to do?25. When will the consumers notice that their private information was stolen?Section C26. launched27. previously28. critical29. seminars30. genetic31. collaboration32. perform33. accusing him of34. added a clause to35. walk out。

Book 4 Unit 3 Part D 听力原文Section A1. M: I believe romantic love is the most important condition for marriage. Do you think so?W: I think parental approval is critical for marriage because it creates unity in a family.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?2. M: Is it possible to be married and to be free?W: If you take marriage seriously, then freedom is impossible. If you take it non-seriously, then you can be free.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?3. M: I don‟t know if you remember, b ut it was on this very day last year that we tied the knot. M: How could I ever forget?I love you more than the day we got married.Q: What‟s the special day today?4. W: What would you do if you were in a relationship with someone you didn‟t love any more? M: One word, divorce.Q: What trouble might the woman have?5. M: It‟s really hard to believe that George‟s engaged. Where did he and his fiancée meet?W: At some cocktail in San Francisco, he took to her immediately. I mean, they really hit it off. Q: What can we learn from the conversation?6. W: Eddie, you‟re going to be a father!M: That‟s wonderful news! As an expectant mother, you need to take great care of your health. Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?7. M: Do you know that, a long time ago, weddings were arranged by the parents? The bride and groom only met on their wedding day.W: Really? People don‟t do that now. They believe in free love.Q: How did the bride and groom get to know each other in the past?8.M: They‟re playing the Wedding March. Y our eyes are filled with tears.W: Mary looks so beautiful in the wedding gown, and I recall the moment that I was a bride.Q: Where does the conversation happen?Conversation 1M: Hey, Mary. What are you doing?W: I‟m reading the newspaper. It says a study found changes in the way that American wives and husbands share economic responsibility for their families.M: What is the new economics of marriage in America?W: The study found a big increase in the percentage of married women who earn more money than their husbands.M: Is there any specific data given in the study?W: Y es. 22% of the wives earned more than their husbands during the most recent year of the study. Thirty-seven years ago, just 4% of wives were top earners.M: That‟s a big change. It‟s widely believed that money is number one reason for arguments between married couples.W: I think unequal incomes are no reason for tensions. It is important to look at family life as a whole.M: I agree with you. Both partners have to give their time, effort and, in many cases, income for the good of the family.W: Y ou are so right! Good marriages bring together the skills and ideas that make a family work.9. What are the man and the woman mainly talking about?10. According to the study, what is the percentage of wives who earned more than their husbands during the most recent year?11. What is the woman‟s attitude towards unequal incomes between husbands and wives?Conversation 2W: Hey, Tom. What‟s that in your arms?M: Books.W: What‟s that for?M: My teacher asked me to write an article about college students marriage. Y ou know that many college students are getting married nowadays. Could you please say something about that? I am looking for opinions about that topic.W: My pleasure. Chinese government allows on-campus students to get married before they complete their course. But I think people get married during their college life is not so good.M: Can you tell me why you are against college students marriage?W: Because for on-campus students, their main task is to learn. If they are married, their school work must be affected and they may not graduate favorably. Furthermore, to be married, they must consider many extra problems, such as time to get together, place to live, the cost of home maintenance, birth control, etc.M: I couldn‟t agree wit h you more. They are still too young to think about it. I think it is unnecessary to ban campus marriage, but it should not be advocated or encouraged.W: So, a reasonable mind is especially needed to deal with the problem.M: OK, I have written what you have said down. Thank you so much.12. What topic did the man‟s teacher ask him to write about?13. What is the woman‟s attitude towards college students‟ marriage?14. If on-campus students choose to be married, what factor do they need to take into consideration?15. What is the man‟s attitude towards campus marriage?Section BPassage 1Having been married for more than 40 years, I can attest to the truth of the followingstatement: to excel in the art of domestic argument, one must master the art of losing.Modern psychologists are taken with the “win-win” solution. But in marriage, success resides more in “lose-lose” solutions. Out of these, both parties can win. For in the love configuration, losing gives a gift that always returns.One day shortly after my wife and I were married, we set about picking new living-room wallpaper from a book of samples. My taste and hers were at odds. “I like this one,” she said. “That looks so ugly. I wouldn‟t hang that in hell if I were the devil.”As the argument wen t on, my wife suddenly slammed the book shut. “There are over two hundred samples in this book,” she declared. “I say we spend our energy finding one that suits us both, instead of bickering over the ones we don‟t like.”And that‟s how we settled it. Event ually we found a pattern we both liked. The “wallpaper book” became our symbol for settling the myriad issues that arise in marriage. “Well,” she‟d say when we couldn‟t agree on furniture or a place to vacation, “there are plenty of samples in the wallpape r book.”So remember: if you want to win arguments at home, learn to lose them.16. According to the speaker, what leads to a successful marriage?17.What was the origin of the argument one day shortly after the speaker got married?18. What was the result of the argument?Passage 2Married couples are more likely to live to an old age than their divorced, widowed or un-married counterparts, a US study claims.Research published today in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health shows that people that never marry are almost two-thirds more likely to suffer from premature death, with single men more adversely affected than women.By analyzing census data involving 67,000 individuals between 1989 and 1997, scientists from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), found that in 1989 about half of respondents were married, two-fifths had either been divorced or widowed and 20 per cent were not married.Although the researchers admit that by 1997 the greatest contributing factors tow ards mortality were old age and poor health, whether people were married or not had a significant impact on whether people were still alive, even after taking age, health and other factors into consideration.The UCLA research team say they were surprised by the fact that non-married people in good health were more likely to have died during 1989 and 1997 than less-healthy individuals.The researchers explained that the unmarried group of people were found generally to be in better physical condition than their married peers, as well as drinking less alcohol and exercising more.The authors of today‟s report suggest that marriage represents a connection with social life; while not getting married may be strongly linked to “severe isolation”.19.According a US study, which group of people are more likely to live to an old age?20. How many respondents were involved in this US study?21. What is NOT a factor contributing to mortality?22.Why were the researchers surprised by the fact that non-married people in good health were more likely to have died than less-healthy individuals?Passage 3Priscilla Nangurai retired as a teacher in 2005. Today, at the age of 62, she could be living a quiet life in retirement. Instead, she leads an organization at her home called GRACE — the Girls Rights, Attention, Care and Rescue Center. She tries to rescue Masai girls from early marriage and make sure they get an education.In the traditional culture of the Masai people, fathers often promise their young daughters in marriage to older men. Most girls are between the ages of twelve and fourteen, with some even younger.Priscilla Nangurai says the problem begins when a girl gets “booked” when she is very young, or not even born yet. “Booking is when a parent or a ma n wants to marry from a certain family. So he can go to the family, and if there are little girls there, he will book. If one of the wives is expectant, he will say, …I want something from this womb.‟ And he‟s allowed to do that. ”A fourteen-year-old girl named Roseline has been at the rescue center since 2008. At the age of four she was booked to a man who she thinks was about sixty to seventy years old.Masai culture calls for the man who wants to marry a girl to start paying the girl‟s father once the booking has been made. Traditionally the payment is made with cows, but today money can also be exchanged.Since 1986, Priscilla Nangurai has rescued more than 700 girls. She now has 15 girls at her center, and she is building a dormitory to house up to eighty girls.23.Why did Priscilla Nangurai build up GRACE instead of living a quiet life in retirement?24.What can we learn fro m the passage about “booking”?25. When should the man who wants to marry a Masai girl start paying the girl‟s father?Section C26. permanent27. cut short28.

This (S1) owner of the establishmentis giving his new hire some instructions on (S2) running the place. He tells the timid man, “If youever hear that Big John is coming to town, (S3) drop everything and run for the hills! He’s theb iggest, nastiest (S4) outlaw who’s ever lived!”A few weeks pass (S5) uneventfully. But one afternoon, a local cowhand comes running throughtown (S6) yelling, “Big John is coming! Run for your (S7) l ives!”When the bartender leaves the bar to start running, he is knocked to the ground by severaltownspeople rushing out of town.

(S9) The bartender nervously hands the bigman a beer, hands shaking.

Don’t you hearBig John is coming?”Task3: A View of HappinessScriptDr. Smith has proposed a reasonable, if perhaps somewhat oversimplifies, view of happiness. According to his theory, happiness might be described as a state if balance. And when human or certain animals achieve that balance, they rend to remain in that condition in order to repeat the happy feeling.To illustrate this, we may study two magnets. When their positive and negative poles meet, they are comfortably joined, and they remain there. In other words, they have attained a balance or state of happiness. If on the other hand, one of the poles is reversed, and positive pole is presses against positivepole, there is resistance, instability, imbalance a state of unhappiness. Animals with some degree of intelligence seem to find happiness in reinforcement. Once they have gained one or more of their goals such as food, and water, they learn to repeat the actions that led to satisfaction of those goals. This repetition or reinforcement produces a state of balance or sense of happiness.According to this theory, only animals with a significant capacityto learn should be able to experience happiness. But in truth learning can take place through surprisingly simple short-term action such asscratching an itch, followed by pleasure, followed by more scratching,and so on. Thus learning can occur with almost no conscious thought.For human beings, blessed with the ability to reason, goals are not limited to the short-term satisfaction of needs. Indeed, there is astrong link between happiness and the fulfillment of long-term goals. Even if human strive for goals that are more complex and longer-termthan the animals’ goals, once those goals are gained, happiness is reinforced.1. Why does the speaker menti on “magnets”?2. According to the passage, what may animals do after they have got food?3. Which of the following is true according to the speaker?4. What does the speaker say is special about the goals of human beings?5. Which of the following best captures the main idea of the passage?Keys: 1D 2.C3. B 4.D 5.AIV.

He looks broke.”When I heard that, I almost hit the roof.Susan: Don’t let it get to you. Better ignore them. Chris: I agree.I did manage to keep my cool. Susan: Well, the best thing you can do is to file a complaint with the Consumer Protection Agency.Chris: sounds like a good idea.MODEL2 I’m too depressed.ScriptSusan: Chris, I hear you’ve been down in the dumps, soI’ve come to cheer you up.

Ifthey talk to the shop, maybe they will give you a refund.B: Sounds too good to be true.V. Let’s TalkScriptHello, everyone. Today I invite you to join me in an exploration off the causes of depression. There ate many factors involved, but I believe some deserve special attention. Heredity certainly plays a role. .The tendency to develop depression may be inherited; there is evidence that this disorder may run in families.Physiology is another factor related to depression. There may be changes or imbalances in chemicals which transmit information in the brain called neurotransmitters. Many modern antidepressant drugs attempt to increase levels of certain neurotransmitters so as to increase brain communication. While the causal relationship is unclear; it is knownthat antidepressant medications do reliever certain symptoms of depression.Researchers also study psychological factors. They include the complex development of one’spersonality and how one has learned to cope with externalenvironmental factors, such as stress. It is freeqently observed that low self-esteem and self-defeating thinking are connected with depression. While it is not clear which is the cause and which is the effect, it is known that sufferers who are able to make corrections to their thinking patterns can show improved mood and self-esteem.Another factor causing depression is one’s early experiences. Events such as the death of a parent,the divorce of the parents, neglect, chronic illness, and severe physical abuse can also increase the likelihood of depression later in life.Some present experiences may also lead to depression. Job loss, financial difficulties, long periods of unemployment, the loss of a spouse or other family member, or other painful events may trigger depression. Long-term stress at home, work, or school can also be involved.It is worth nothing that those living with someone suffering from \depression experience increased anxiety which adds to the possibility of their also becoming depressed.Depression-causing Factors Problem Description SolutionHeredity It is inherited and run in families.Physiology changes or imbalances in chemicals called neurotransmitters, which transmit information in the brain Antidepressant drugs relieve certain symptoms of depression.

Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: Reason and EmotionScriptEmotion is sometimes regarded as the opposite of reason; s is suggested by phrase such as”appeal to emotions rather than reason” and “don’t let your emotions take over”. Emotionalreactions sometimes produce consequences or thoughts which people may later regret or disagree with; but during an emotional state, theycould not control their actions. Thus, it is generally believed that one of the most distinctive facts about human beings is a contradiction between emotion and reason.However, recent empirical studies do not suggest there is a clear distinction between reason and emotion. Indeed, anger or fear can often be thought of as an instinctive response to observed fact. The human mind possesses many possible reactions to the external world. Those reactions can lie on a continuum, with some of them involving the extreme of pure intellectual logic, which is often called “cold”, and others involving the extremes of pure emotion not related to logical agreement, which is called “the heat of passion”. The relation logic and emotion merits careful study. Passion, emotion, orfeeling can reinforce an argument, event one based primarily on reason. This is especially true in religion or ideology, which frequently demands anall-or-nothing rejection or acceptance. In such areas of thought, human beings have to adopt a comprehensive view partly backed by empirical argument and partly by feeling and passion. Moreover, several researchers have suggested that typically there is no “pure” decision or thought; that is, no thought is based“purely”” on intellectual logic or “purely” on emotion—most decisions are founded on amixture of both.1. What results does the speaker may some from emotional reactions?2. What is the popular belief about reason and emotion?3. What does the speaker mean by “cold “?4. According to the passage, what should people do in religious matters?5. What is the speaker’s conclusion?Keys: 1.A 2.B 3.C 4.C 5.DTask 2: DepressionScriptPat: You look depressed. Are you feeling blue? I’ve come to cheer you up.Ted: But there’s nothing that can cheer me up. I’m down in the dumps. Life’s miserablePat: You have to try to get your mind off things.Ted: But I can’t. I just feel there’s too much pressure on me sometimes!Pat: You can’t let things get you down. Learn to relax andstop worryin g all the time. What’s yourproblem?Ted: I failed my last exam, and another exam is coming, I get bored. Pat: If I were you, I’d start working hard. If you work hard for a long time, you’re bound t o getbetter grades. You see, “no pain, no gain”.Ted: It’s easier said than done! If I read for fifteen minutes, I get bored. Pat: You have to learn some self-discipline.But how can I stay cheerful all the time?Ted: Worse than that! If I read for half an hour, I get a headache. Then I start to worry aboutpassing the next exam.Pat: It’s all in your mind. If you stay cheerful like me,everything will soon be OK. Ted: But how can I stay cheerful all the time?Pat: Try to look on the bright side of things.Ted: But what if there isn’t a bright side?Pat: You know the saying: Every cloud has a silver lining. It means there’re always tow sides toeverything—both the dark and the bright sides. So, try to identify your strengths and bring theninto full play.Ted: Oh, no! Your corny old sayings are making me even more depressed.Keys: TFFTFTask3: AngerScriptAnger is an emotion that can be hard to control. Despite this, we should learn how to manage anger in a constructive manner. In the most intense moments of anger, we usually have twochoices: to fight or to run. Some choose the option of violence, which is a negative reaction to anger; and others choose to run. Some may think running means you are a coward. But the option of walking away and claiming down is the moreproductive method of handling anger. It is difficult to walk away, especially when your heart is racing, and your anger is boiling over. There are constructive ways of handling anger in any situation. First, you have to stop for a brief moment and think before you act. Take that moment and calm down id you feel yourself being pushed.At that moment you should admit you are angry. If you refuse toadmit you’re angry or hurt, or ifyou make it appear that everything is peaches and cream, you are not managing angry in a productive way. You should first admit you are angry and let your feelings out before you blow up. Foe example, you can stay in a quiet place by yourself and shout; or you can talk to a closefriend to vent your rage. If you do not acknowledge your anger, it only builds up inside you and will eventually explode like a volcano Then, in order to manage your angry, you can ask yourself an important question that we all must ask ourselves, “What made me angry?” When you get the answer, and then ask yourself, “Why did that made me angry?” Thro ugh such logical reasoning, one tends to calm down and move toward a sensible solution.News ReportU.S. Roller CoasterScriptThe world’s first 4D roller coaster, “X”, took on its firstpassengers last week at the Six FlagsMagic Mountain theme park, just outside Los Angeles.After climbing on board and properly securing their safety harnesses, “X” riders are first to aheight of over 66meters. At the top, the passenger train is released and builds up enough speed to race and plummet around the track at speeds of over 130km an hour.The rider takes the daring passengers down an incredible 66m diveand over the top of a 62m loop, in cars that spin independently of the roller coaster train. This unique design allows riders to spin360degree, both forwards and backwards, through the entire ride.Passengers hurtle through this ride often moving in many different directions at the same time ad the cars somersault back and forth andthe roller coaster twists, loops, and dives. The complicated series of maneuvers includes two raven turn, one front flip, one twisting front flip, and two back flips.Since passengers aren’t always facing the right direction to see what’s coming up next, theelement of surprise is high. For “X” riders, this adds to the thrill of the ride.The track of this newest roller coaster runs a total length of a little over1, 100meters. The passenger trains measure 6meters wide and21meters long, large enough to carry 28 passengers at a time. At full capacity, the trains can take 1,600passengers for the ride of theirlives each hour. The entire ride lasts for only a total about2minutes,but you can tell from the exhilarated faces of passengers returning to the boarding dock that they were two of the most thrilling minutes ofheir lives.Uint2II.

Unit 1Optional listening•building down•Interviewer: What do you think is the biggest problem facing our cities?•Erika: I think it's overcrowding. Talk to anyone living in the metropolitan area and they will say the same thing. Even the suburb is getting crowded.•Interviewer: Well, in some places there simply isn't any land left for building, right?•Erika: Yes, that's true, but you have to think creatively. You can't give up so easily.•Interviewer: Think creatively? What do you suggest? •Erika: What I am saying is that we can build more structures underground. We can add parking lots, malls, hotels, and even apartment building. There 's plenty of space. •Interviewer: Isn't it expensive?•Erika: Yes, it can be. In the past building underground has been very expensive. However, we have new technology that will bring the cost down. It involves using robots. You don't have to pay robots a salary.•Interviewer: Isn't building down more dangerous than otherkind of construction?•Erika: Actually, I think it's safer than building skyscrapers, for example. Remember, we already do it. We have subways and underground shopping malls. I am just suggesting we invest ina variety of bigger projects and that we dig deeper.•Interviewer: What would you say to people who doubt your idea?•Erika: I can understand their feelings. Whenever there's a new idea, it can cause controversy. But building underground is not some kind of impractical idea. It makes sense. There is so much space underground: It can accommodate a lot of traffic, storage, and people. With the new technology we have, we'd be crazy not to consider the idea----it 's the wave of the future.video:City living I love skyscrapers•Takeshi: Man, look at that. In New York there's always something being built. And everything goes up so quickly…you never know what's going to be around next week.•Roberto: Yeah, but on the other hand, sometimes I wonder about overcrowding. Maybe they need to start building down more.•Takeshi: Building down?•Roberto: Yeah, it's when you build underground instead of above ground.•Takeshi: Nah, that's too much like living in a cave. I love skyscrapers. They are most incredible feats of engineering. •Roberto: True. And some of the first ones were built right here in New York City.•Takeshi: That's right. You know, I wonder what New York looked like before all these buildings popped up. •Roberto: I don't know, but I'd like to see this one when it's finished.•Takeshi: Yeah, I'll bet it'll be something fantastic.•Robe rto: Maybe…what do you think it's going to look like?•Takeshi: I don't know…but you know what? I'm going to remember what it looked like.•Roberto: What are you talking about? And why are you taking pictures? there's nothing there?•Takeshi: OK. You know how some people get famous because they have pictures of movie stars or performers before they make it big?•Roberto: Yeah?•Takeshi: Well, some buildings and architectural structures get to be famous too, like the Eiffel Tower or the Empire StateBuilding…right?•Roberto: Yeah, and…? there's nothing here.•Takeshi: Right. But there will be. Someday this very spot may become really well-known---like maybe it 'll be some incredible hotel that the rich and famous stay at. And I 'll be the only one with pictures of it before it was built. Cool, huh?•Roberto: Uh…you are too much. Hey, let 's ask this guy what your famous building 's going to be. Excuse me, can you tell us what this is going to be when it 's finished? Maybe a fancy hotel or something?•Construction worker: Fancy hotel? No, this isn 't going to be a hotel. It's going to be a parking garage.•Roberto: A parking garage. Uh…huh. Thanks.Takeshi: Well…maybe…someone rich and famous will park here.Unit 2•Optional listening Local girl rescued•She may have a broken leg, but she can't be happier. Morgan bailey, 11, is happy to be alive.•Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan. She was at school.It was fourth period, and she was the first student to arrive the gymnasium for her physical education class.•Suddenly there was a loud noise.•“There was a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom.After that, I don 't remember anything,”said Morgan.•The roof of the gymnasium had collapsed under the heavy snow. Morgan was trapped underneath. She couldn't escape. •“I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg.I couldn't move it. I was starting to get cold.”•Fortunately help was nearby. A new program using rescue robot was tried for the first time.•“We were nervous about using the robot,” said Derrick Sneed, the man in charge of the program. “but in the end, the robot gave us reliable information. It went extremely well.”•The rescue robot was able to go into the gym and locate Morgan's exact position.•“We sent robot first because it may not be safe for humans,”said Mr. Sneed. “Human beings are not as useful as robots in some situations. A gas leak, for example, could kill you or me but wouldn't hurt a robot.”•Although it didn't happened in Morgan's case, some rescue robots can bring fresh air or water to people who are trapped. •Rescue robots go into rough dangerous places. They work in life or death situations. They have to be durable.•Doctors say that Morgan is doing well. She should be going home in 2or 3 days. What is the first thing she wants to do after she gets out of the hospital?•“I want to meet my hero,” laughs Morgan. “That little robot that saved my life.”Video:City living•The first word processor•Mrs. Morgan: Good. So change the first part and make those corrections and your paper will be great.•Tara: OK. Thanks for all your help, Professor Morgan. I 'll e-mail my paper to you later today.•Mrs. Morgan: You know, technology is amazing. In high schoolI used to write my term papers on a typewriter.•Tara: It must have taken a long time to write a paper on a typewriter.•Mrs. Morgan: Well, I was pretty fast, but I made some mistakes. Actually, the typewriters weren't that bad. Now, as for the first computer…o h my gosh.•Tara: What do you mean?•Mrs. Morgan: The first computers were so unreliable. They used to crash all the time. And they were not as affordable or as fast as they are now.•Tara: mine's pretty fast, but not as fast as some of the newer, more expensive ones.•Mrs. Morgan: I know. And nowadays, almost everyone has a computer. In those days, nobody had their own computer. We used to use the ones at the university.•Tara: In the computer lab?•Mrs. Morgan: Yeah, that's all we had. I'll never forget, one spring, during final exam. Everybody was working on their term papers, and the electricity went out.•Tara: So? No big deal…laptops have batteries…•Mrs. Morgan: Yes, remember, in those days we didn't have laptops. If your computer crashed, you lose everything. •Tara: Everything?•Mrs. Morgan: Everything. We used to lose information all the time, but that time it was terrible. Everybody lost their papers that afternoon…including me.•Tara: What did you do?•Mrs. Morgan: I went back to the good, old-fashioned way. •Tara: You mean typewriter?•Mrs. Morgan: Nope. I used something more affordable, portable, reliable, disposable, something that always worked. •Tara: What was that?•Mrs. Morgan: The first word processor.Unit 3Optional listening• 1. Nutty news•Lulu is a kangaroo(袋鼠). For 10 years she has lived with the Richards family. Lulu was adopted by the family after they found her next to her dead mother.•Mr. Ken Richards is a farmer. He was working on his farm when a heavy tree branch suddenly fell on top of him.•Lulu stood next to Mr. Richards’ body. She started barking and didn’t leave Mr. Richards’ side.•“I’ve never heard Lulu bark like that – she sounded like a dog.She barked and barked and she didn’t stop,” said Celeste, Mr.Richards’ daughter.•After 15 minutes, the Richards family went to investigate.They found Ken on the ground and he was unconscious.•“Lulu is a hero,” said Celeste. “She saved my father.”•Mr. Middleton, an expert veterinarian(兽医), said that Lulu’s story is rare. “I have never seen a kangaroo act like that.Maybe Lulu helped Ken Richards because the Richards family is the only family she has ever known.”•Lulu has always followed Ken around the farm. She’s a loyal, friendly, and very intelligent kangaroo. After Ken leaves the hospital, he is planning to go everywhere with Lulu.• 2. Nutty news•Approximately 175,000 people live in the Republic of Vanuatu (瓦努阿图共和国), an island chain east of Australia. It is a popular tourist destination because there’s a lot to do there: you can visit waterfalls, go horseback riding, take an aerial tour, or visit a traditional Ni-Vanuatu (Ni-Vanuatu is a demonym used to refer to all Melanesian ethnicities originating in Vanuatu. It also refers, more generally, to nationals and citizens of Vanuatu, whatever their ethnicity.) village. Vanuatu is most famous for its scuba diving and snorkeling.•In an effort to draw attention to these popular water sports, Vanuatu has created a world’s “first”: the government has opened an underwater post office.

Don't you agree?M:Most definitely.I couldn't agree more.9.M:Overall,I feel bad that I lost your book,but it really wasn't my fault.W:Do I have to remind you how important that book was to me and how it was my favorite book?10.M:I can't believe how expensive the oranges are these days.W:Yes,the drought in Florida has caused the soil to dry and made it really hard to get enough water to the trees.Passage1One of the main complains of city residents,not surprisingly,is the lack of parking.This problem is partly caused by all the abandoned cars on the streets.It has been estimated by A to Z Towing,Inc.,a nationwide tow-truck agency,that over one million cars are abandoned on the streets and alleyways of the nation's cities.Each year,approximately a third of those cars are removed and destroyed.The rest of the cars,which are not removed,take up parking spaces and make neighborhoods look rundown.A survey of twenty cities by A to Z reports that as much as30million dollars is spent annually to tow away and dismantle abandoned vehicles. One city alone,Los Angeles,spends five million dollars a year to control the accumulation of abandoned cars on its streets.Even though the city spends so much money on the program,it is always fighting a losing battle as more and more cars are constantly coming off the production line.Boston,on the other hand,which spends most of its money on museums and libraries,does not appropriate tax money to clean abandoned cars off the streets.In Boston the problem has been dealt with by a non-profit government agency called Street Horizons,which uses the money from the recycling of the metal in the cars to pay for the cost of towing them.The program in Boston sounds good although it has not completely reached financial independence from the federal government yet.Until a truly self-sufficient program for removing old cars is developed,it will remain a serious problem.Passage2Do you believe that seven is a lucky number or that things happen in a set of three?If so,your ideas are as old as Pythagoras,a Greekphilosopher of the sixth century B.C.Pythagoras believed that certain numbers and their multiples had mystical power.For centuries,people have given importance to numbers and developed superstitions about them.Many of the these superstitions have been passed on through the generations and still exist today.Many of the superstitions surrounding numbers have a basis in science and nature.For example,early astrologers believed that seven planets governed the universe and therefore the lives of human beings.A seventh child was thought to have special gifts.Human life was divided into seven ages.Every seventh year was believed to bring great change.If a person’s date of birth could be divided by seven,that person’s life would be lucky.For the ancient Babylonians,three was a lucky number because it symbolized birth,life and death.Some people still believe that a dream repeated three times comes true.Numbers don’t have the same meaning in all cultures.The ancient Greeks and Egyptians thought the number four was a perfect number symbolizing unity,endurance,and balance.However,the Chinese consider the number four to be unlucky because it sounds like the word for death.The number that seems to be almost universally considered unlucky is thirteen.No other number has had such a bad reputation for so long.The ancient Romans regarded it as a symbol of death,destruction,and misfortune.There are many superstition regarding the number thirteen.For example,in Britain it’s considered a bad omen for thirteen people to sit at a table.Some say that person who rises first will meet with misfortune, even death,within a year.Others say it’s last person to rise.Some British people think it’s unlucky to have thirteen people in a room,especially for the person closest to the door.The thirteenth day of the month isn’t considered a good day on which to begin any new enterprise,including marriage,or to set out on a journey.Many people believe that Friday the thirteenth is the unluckiest day in the year.This belief is so widespread that there are horror movies called“Friday the Thirteenth.”Passage3In addition to exercising regularly,eating a good breakfast is considered by many health experts to be a significant part of a successful way of reduction plan.After a night of fasting the body needs to be replenished with nutrients in order to maintain a high level of energy throughout the day.Several nutritionists suggest that dieters should eat up to one-third of their daily calories at breakfast time.These calories should be in the form of balanced meal of nutritious food.A balanced mealconsists of five key elements:proteins,carbohydrates,fats,vitamins,and minerals.People who are dieting need a variety of foods to assure a constant supply of nutrients their bodies need.If a well-balanced diet is not followed,the dieter may become sleepy,nervous,or feel out of sorts. If a poor diet is maintained for a long period of time,the dieters may become vitamin deficient.Vitamin deficiency can cause serious health problems.For these reasons,many doctors recommend that everyone, especially those on diet,starts the day with up to one-third of the daily requirement of nutrients in the form of a well-balanced breakfast. Scripts:Unit2Conversations1.W:If you had listened to what I was saying,we could have been at the meeting by now.Move over and let me drive for a while.M:I am sure we were going the right way.Let me turn around.Q:What’s the matter?2.M:This is the third time we’ve had to wait for Mary.I wish she would call when she’s going to show up late.It’s so rude of her to make us all wait in rush hour time.W:I know,but she does have to drive15miles in rush hour in order to get here.Q:How does the woman feel about having to wait for Mary?3.W:I wish Susie will stop reciting that poem.I’ve heard her repeat it hundreds of times.M:At least that much.I used to really like Whitman’s poem until I had to listen to her over and over again.Q:What do the man and woman mean?4.W:This taxi ride doesn't feel smooth.I think the company should replace it.M:Or better yet,why not the driver?Q:What is the man suggesting?5.M:I hope to get a job during summer vocation and earn some money. How about you?W:I am going to take a correspondence course so I can graduate sooner. Q:What are the man and woman discussing?6.M:I’d better read one of the articles for our economics class.W:You can’t read just one.Each presents a different theory,you know. Q:What does the woman tell the man he must do?7.M:I heard Joan was turned down for the graduate fellowship.She must be upset.W:She was at first.But you know Joan.She got over it pretty quickly. Q:What can be inferred about Joan?8.W:It’s already10o’clock.I guess Bob and Tom won’t be coming tothe party.M:They called at nine to say that they had been held up.Q:What does the man mean?9.W:I’ve finally found a research topic for sociology class.M:Really?I’m going to be up all night trying to come up with something by tomorrow.Q:What does the woman mean?10.W:If you can be here before6:00,David,please come to the office.If you come later,I won’t be able to see you until tomorrow.M:I get off my work at5this evening,Kay,so you can expect me to come right after that.Q:When will David and Kay meet?Passage1The twenty-third Olympic games were held in Los Angeles and like every other Olympics games,they represented a contest of mind,muscle, and athletic determination.The use of high technology,however,showed increasing significance in the staging of the event and helped set an example for staging future events.Unlike the Olympics of the past,the Olympics are not just a race of the gold anymore.They have also become a race for computer technology. Planning the event,as any host country can tell you,requires the technology to plan and organize this massive event that brings hundred of countries together.In the twenty-third game,for example,computers were used to keep track of the schedules,accounts,transportation,and ticketing for more than43,000Olympic employees and volunteers.This was not an easy task.A sophisticated electronic message system,moreover,helped keep the 12,000or so journalists up-to-date on results.Due to this system,they were able to know about and broadcast to the world the judges’final decision usually within a minute’s time.This message system also allowed traffic controller to relay traffic reports more efficiently,so that the usually chaotic Los Angeles highways became easy to navigate through.Computers and other high-tech tools were also used to train American athletes by analyzing and evaluating performance.This computer wizardry assisted the athletes in identifying weakness and suggesting ways to improve.Passage2Education is not an end,but a means to an end.In other words,we do not educate children only for the aim of educating them.Our purpose is to fit them for life.Life is so varied;so is education.As soon as we realizethe fact,we will understand that it is very important to choose a proper system of education.In some countries with advanced industries,they have free education for all.Under this system,people,no matter whether they are rich or poor, clever or foolish,have a chance to be educated at universities or colleges. They have for sometime thought,by free education for all,they can solve all the problems of a society and build a perfect nation.But we can already see that free education for all is not enough.We find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees than there are jobs for them to fill.As a result of their degrees,they refuse to do what they think is“low”work.In fact,to work with one’s hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries.But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is as important as that of a professor.We can live without education,but we should die if none of us grew crops.If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses,we should get terrible diseases in our towns.If there were no service people, because everyone was shamed to do such work,the professors would have to waste much of their time doing housework.On the other hand,if all the farmers were completely uneducated, their production will remain low.As the population grows larger and large in the modern world,we would die if we did not have enough food. Passage3During the nineteenth century,when little was known about environmentalism and conservation,it was common to hear people in Europe and America say that resources of the sea were unlimited.They believed the world and nature would continuously reproduce all the resources they would need.For example,a noted biologist writing in the mid-nineteenth century commented that none of the great sea fisheries were to be exhausted.Today,though,there is evidence that the resources of the sea are seriously endangered.Previously,environmentalists have focused on their attention on the land and air.Recently,however,they are beginning to discover that the resources of the sea are in as much danger.The listed endangered species now included herring and crap as well as the African elephant,Indian tiger,and the American eagle.Further more,the threats to fish are more alarming in some ways than the threats to animals and birds.This is because fish are a much needed food resource,and the people throughout the world depend on fish as an important part of their diet.Hence,a decline in the fish supply would have extensive effects on hunger and population.Fishermen in the North Atlantic alone annually harvest20billion pounds of fish to satisfy fooddemand,but the world needs to recognize that these practices cannot continue without depleting fish service within the next few years.Rapidly declining sea resources in many parts of the world are problems that cannot be ignored any longer.Unlike the scholars in the nineteenth century,we now know that food supplies in the sea cannot last forever. Scripts:Unit3Conversations:1.M:I used to collect rare volumes,but I barely look at them.W:That’s a pity.I’m always rereading my books.Q:What can we infer from the conversation?2.M:Will you turn down the radio?I’m on the phone and I can’t understand anything my professor is saying.W:Okay,but hurry up and finish.Sitting so close like this is making my legs uncomfortable.Q:Why is the may angry?3.W:The violin sounds awful!M:I know.I wish we could get a refund.This performance is the worst I’ve ever been to.Q:Where are these people talking?4.W:Do you want to go on a trip with us to Florida this spring?It will cost about$300a person.M:$300?Do you think I just inherited a fortune?Q:What can be inferred about the man?5.W:You look great since you’ve been taking these exercise classes.M:Thanks.I’ve never felt better in my life.Q:What does the man imply?6.W:How wonderful!You won the scholarship.Can you believe it?M:No.It’s almost too good to be true.Q:What does the man mean?7.M:How are you doing,Mary?I’ve heard you’ve got a new job,and how’s it going?W:Well,I’m getting used to lots of new things.But I wish the supervisor would give me some feedback.Q:What does the woman mean?8.M:Look,I’m sorry to bother you about this,but that music’s really loud.W:I didn’t realize you could hear it.Q:What will the woman probably do?9.W:I’ll be ready in a few minutes.I have to finish up this letter.M:OK,I’ll go down to the lobby for a paper.Q:What will the woman probably do?10.M:There were only twenty students at last night’s meeting,so nothing could be voted on.W:That’s too bad.They’ll have to turn out in greater number if they want a voice in campus issues.Q:What does the woman mean?Passage1Every person has both good and bad traits in their character.Most people do not like to be criticized by others.It is good to be honest with yourself.We must admit that we all have both good and bad traits and we must like ourselves as we are.I was born under the sign Virgo and I believe I have some of the characteristics of people born under this sign.One example of a good trait of a Virgo that I have is patience. Sometimes I think I am almost too patient,but I have also found that patience helps me in a lot of things.For example,it helps me to study when the lesson is difficult or boring.Also,if I don't succeed in something,I am willing to try several more times.My patience also helps me to relax and stay calm.I am very patient with people too.I can deal with people who are nervous,angry,and upset and help them to calm down.Sometimes people take advantage of my patience,however,and I don't like that at all.Another example of a trait that I have,which is typical of Virgo,is ambition.I am very ambitious and can't sit in one place for more than ten minutes.If I make up my mind to do something,then I will do anything to meet my goal no matter how long it takes and how much energy and time will be needed to accomplish it.This is what helped me to graduate from high school in three years.I like to be busy all day and have lots of things to do.This makes me happy and satisfied.I hate sitting at home all day doing nothing.Finally,like anyone,Virgos have some bad traits too.This ambition can sometimes make them take on more work than they can handle, leading them to strain themselves to breaking point.Sometimes I take on too much work and then reach a point at which I can do no more.Then I have to rest for a while and regain my strength.Virgos can also be fussy and irritable.I suppose I can be that way too sometimes.For instance,I like everything to be neat and tidy,and if someone comes along and messed things up,I will scold them.Passage2Ladies and gentlemen,I would like to introduce our speaker for this rry McCaffery,the well-known critic and interviewer from southern Califomia.Dr.McCaffery has consented to give us a little bit of his precious time while he's here in Chicago.He's here in Chicago to finda publisher for his most recent book,Storming the Reality Studios.I have known Dr.McCaffery for many years and have read all of his books and I recommend them highly to everyone in the audience.The current work is a collection of interviews with many of the hottest writers in the post-modem scene rry's unique talent in this area is the fact that he is able to communicate so well with so many of today's popular writers.His present work is especially exciting for the publishing community because it allows the reader to connect with many of the exciting names that they are already familiar with.The theme of the book allows for a diverse group of authors to be interviewed and at the same time,the work remains coherent.After Larry gives his presentation,he will be signing copies of the book at the back of the room.The books he has brought with him today are a special edition with some extra illustrations that will not be included in the final edition so I would recommend a copy to everyone.We will have plenty of time for a question and answer period after we hear from Mr.McCaffery.Passage3For years,it's been assumed that the indoor environment limits the variety of plants that people are exposed tely,however,plants that are usually only grown outdoors have found their way into indoor spaces. There are a few simple reasons why this is.The modem indoor environment can be an ideal setting for a wide variety of outdoor plants.Plants that ordinarily cannot grow in colder outdoor climates can find protection from the indoor spaces,where temperatures are easily controlled.Plants that used to only be found outside,such as trees,have become more and more popular as decorations inside houses.Orchids,which were once only found in tropical environments,have begun to thrive in indoor settings.A large number of smaller plants have also found their way into homes.One aspect of the modem home that has made exotic outdoor plants more practical is the modem use of windows.In the past windows were used less frequently in buildings than they are today.It is partly because of the ability of large windows to admit large amounts of sunlight and keep the heat in at the same time,that many outdoor plants have been able to make their move inside.It is true that most of the plants that have been successfully in moving indoors have been small.Some of the best adapted varieties are the vines. Many vines that are parasitic in natural surroundings make excellent decorations where other plants prove difficult to grow.Although some trees can be grown indoors,it is unlikely the larger varieties can be used.Unfortunately,most homes just don't have the space to grow a redwood tree.Scripts:Unit4Conversations1.M:Excuse me,Miss.I'm a graduate student of mathematics.I've just come from Japan,and I've never been to a Western library before.I wonder if someone might have time to show me around.W:I'd be glad to show you around,but I'm very busy right now.Could you come back about4:00?Q:What is the student concerned about?2.W:I'm so happy to see you back in class again.Three weeks is a long time.M:I really had a great time seeing all the sights.There's nothing like taking it easy once for a year.Q:What did the man do for three weeks?3.W:I'm having a problem getting the classes I want.M:That's too bad.But I'm sure you'll be able to work everything out before the semester starts.Q:What does the man mean?4.W:When is the assignment due?And what type of report do you want?M:It is due on the fifteenth.I expect a full research project, approximately20pages in length and typed.Q:Who are the two people?5.M:I don't like the sound of that car engine.W:I'm certain it's nothing to worry about.I just had it serviced a few days ago.Q:What does the woman mean?6.W:I hear you're joining that expedition across Alaska.Did you get much funding for it?M:You must be joking!I have to pay my own airfare and contribute toward the cost of supplies.Q:What does the man say about the expedition?7.M:They've just announced the flight has been delayed until four o'clock.W:Oh no!How are we going to kill two hours?Q:What does the woman imply?8.M:I missed class this morning.Could you lend me your notes?W:My notes?You've never seen my handwriting,have you?Q:What does the woman imply?9.W:I'd like to inquire about some of the charges on my electricity bills.I can't understand why it is so high this month.M:I'd be happy to send you more detailed explanation if you give me your account number.Q:What does the man mean?10.M:Mike said he was looking for a job in the bookstore.W:But then,when he had the chance to work there,he turned it down, didn't he?Q:What can inferred about Mike?Passage1There are a lot of students who dislike studying history.The problem is not necessarily that the subject is boring.It is just hard to get excited about something when it is presented in a boring manner.I had a different experience though.My American history professor,Dr.Anais Ninn,was unforgettable.When Dr.Ninn described events they seemed to leap from the pages.It was partly because she made it sound like a live radio news report.Dr.Ninn imitated John Adams,a well-known silversmith of the revolutionary period.John Adams helped to organize the colonists who were angry about the way the British seemed to control their lives through unfair taxes.Dr.Ninn imitated the way John Adams had given his speeches and helped to plan the revolutionary activities.I can see her now with her hand raised above her head and shouting at the class.She told how Adams had come up with a plan in1775to use two lanterns as signals if the British were going to attack by sea.If the scout saw the lamps,he was supposed to jump on a horse and warn the rest of the Americans of the attack.Professor Ninn described the battles to us in detail.The weapons they used at those times were primitive,but the effects were terrible.If a man was wounded then,he would probably die from the infection.As Professor Ninn described these battles,I felt as though history had come alive.Passage2For centuries Dutch engineers have been fighting a war against water. Their main enemy is the sea.A large part of the country is below sea level. In fact,Holland is also called the“Netherland”,which means“low land”. Very tall and strong walls,called dykes,have been built to keep out the sea.But in the very rough weather the sea may suddenly burst through a dyke.Great damage can be caused by floods when this happens.Three large rivers are also part of the problem.They flow throughHolland into the North Sea.They have cut many passages across the country.At low tide,the rivers flow into the sea as usual.But at high tide the sea can flow into the rivers!This is because the land is so low.The battle against water never ends,but they have made Holland a bigger and better country.In order to prevent floods,the engineers take, or reclaim,land that was under water.The Dutch have been reclaiming land for seven hundred years.Land is usually reclaimed from a passage between two islands.Two dykes are built across the passage,so they block the water between them. Then the engineers dig long canals and pump the water into them.At low tide,the canals empty the water into the sea.Because the land is so low,water from the sea and rivers can rise up through the ground.For this reason,the pumps continue working even when the land has been drained.The dykes contain gates,and through these the water is pumped out.In many parts of Holland,pumps must be working all the time.If they stopped,there would be very bad floods. Passage3With the introduction of radio,newspaper publishers wondered how broadcasting would affect them.Many feared that radio as a quick and easy means of keeping people informed would displace the newspaper industry altogether.Others hoped that the brief newscast heard on the air would stimulate listeners in the story so they’d buy the paper to get more information. This second idea turned out to be closer to the truth.Radio and print were not substitutes for each other but actually supported each other.You see the relationship between different media is not always one of displacement but can be one of reinforcement.However,this is not always the case.Take television and motion pictures for example,with the popularization of TV,the motion picture industry suffered greatly. Movie attendance dropped when audience members chose to stay at home and be entertained.Likewise,when a football game was shown on the air, the stands were often empty because fans chose to watch the game at home.Scripts:Unit5Conversations1.W:I don’t think we should have told Tom about the surprise party for Mary.M:It’s all right.He doesn’t make promise lightly,and he promised notto tell.Q:What does the man mean?2.M:I believe that this is my seat.Here’s my ticket if you want to check.W:I’m afraid that you’re mistaken.I’m in the correct seat.According to your ticket,you’re in the balcony.Q:Where is this conversation probably taking place?3.W:I know you don’t have much time left.I believe if you take bus 172instead of bus4,you can save half an hour.M:You’re right.It takes only2hours and a half to Seattle on bus172. Q:How long does it take bus4to get to Seattle?4.W:Our plane has been circling for a long time.Why is the delay? M:The airport was closed for a while this morning and the things still aren’t back to normal.Q:What does the man mean?5.M:I don’t know if I’ll be able to turn in my economics paper on time. W:Haven’t you heard the professor gives us a week’s extension on it?Q:What does the woman mean?6.M:Do you always look over your own papers for typing errors?W:I usually have to do it myself,but I would rather have someone else proofread them.Q:What would the woman prefer to do?7.M:The view is spectacular!Can you take a picture of me with the mountains in the background?W:I’m afraid I just run out of film.Q:What does the woman mean?8.W:I’m amazed that you’re still driving that old car of yours.I thought you would have gotten rid of it years ago.M:It runs well.And I’m actually grown quite attached to it.Q:What does the man mean?9.W:Nobody told me that Bill was in the hospital.M:Sorry,I meant to give you a call when I found out,but it slipped my mind.Q:What does the woman mean?10.W:Boy!How quickly technology changes!So many people have a computer in their home nowadays.M:I know.I feel so behind the times.Q:What can be inferred about the woman?Passage1When we think of communication,we normally think of using words。

W: No, I missed it. What did you learn about them?M: That they glue themselves to rocks in the ocean, shortly after birth. They also stay in the same place forever.W: Right. Have you ever tried removing one of those things? It would be easier to chip the rock away than to get the barnacle off.M: E xactly! And that’s why scientists are trying to figure out what the barnacle’s glue is made of.It’s consid ered one of the strongest adhesives in nature.W: And it would have the advantage of being able to work on wet surfaces, too.M: Precisely. And because it’s a natural protein, it probably wouldn’t be harmful to people like so many synthetic glues in use today.W: Think of all the ways doctors and dentists could use such glue. Mending broken bones, fastening false teeth.M: There could be countless uses. Scientists hope to learn soon exactly what the glue is made of so that people can make use of it.9. What is the main topic of the conversation?10. What did the man learn about the barnacles?11. According to the conversation, what are scientists trying to discover?Conversation 2M: Excuse me. Have you been waiting long?W: About ten minutes.M: Did you notice whether the No.7 bus has gone by?W: Not while I’ve been standing here. I’m waiting for the No.7 myself.M: Good.

Where does this conversation take place?15. How often is the bus scheduled to pass their stop?Section BPassage 1As prices and building costs keep rising, the “do-it-yourself” (DIY) trend in the US continues to grow.“We needed furniture for our living room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a timewhen the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a two-week course for 280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for 420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I’ve finished a car repair course, and I should be able to fix the car by myself.”John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the US are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.16. Why did John Ross decide to build their furniture instead of buying it?17. According to Jim, who should be able to fix his car?18. For those who don’t have time to take a course, how can they learn to become “do-it-yourselfers”?Passage 2Most of us spend high school dissecting frogs and feeling awkward at the occasional dance, but a small group of students in Spain got to do something far cooler with their educational time: they sent a digital camera into space. A teacher and four students from IES La Bisbal School in Catalonia, Spain bought a 60 balloon and fixed an 80 digital camera to it, then sent it up into the sky to capture some high-altitude pictures.The team only wanted to see if they could get their homemade weather balloon to fly to 30,000 feet, which is the altitude that most commercial aircraft fly at. But the balloon just kept climbing until it was 20 miles above the Earth, at the very edge of space. Tracking the balloon’s progress using meteorological sensors and Google Earth, the team kept track of atmospheric conditions and snapped a handful of amazing pictures.The four students and their teacher completed the experiment in February 2009. The team built the electronic sensor components themselves, then placed them, along with the camera, into a protective housing before releasing the rig into the sky.The balloon rose to an altitude of over 100,000 feet before falling back to the ground. The team traveled over 10 km to find the balloon and equipment. They were amazed to find that the equipment was still emitting a signal, despite being exposed to some extremely harsh conditions.19. What did four students in Spain do with their educational time?20. What’s the altitude that most commercial aircraft fly at?21. When did the team complete the experiment?22. After traveling 10 km to find the balloon and equipment, what was the team amazed to find?Passage 3Despite controversy, direct-to-consumer genetic tests are becoming more popular. This kind of genetic tests is more like a do-it-yourself diagnosis. It is becoming almost as easy as taking a home pregnancy test. People can use their credit card to order a set of tools on the Internet, use a brush to remove a few cheek cells, return the tools and receive a report via e-mail. DTC tests cost from a few hundred to a few thousand US dollars, and are available for more than 800 conditionsranging from breast to cancer.The US population may be particularly ready for DTC testing because it has a do-it-yourself ethic and is accustomed to paying out of pocket for healthcare services. Companies that offer genetic tests are enthusiastic about the prospects of widespread DTC testing. They argue that genetic testing is no different from non-DNA tests. But not everyone is thrilled about the ease with which consumers can take genetic tests. Some people worried DTC genetic testing poses dangers to the public. Patients may experience psychological harm since they might not understand what the results mean to them.The lack of regulation in the Internet may also result in a fact that the Web gives you information that could be very misleading and potentially harmful to you. However, many people are comfortable with the lack of regulation as long as a doctor can help them. So what does the future hold for DTC genetic testing? We cannot expect widespread do-it-yourself screening for genetic disease in the years ahead. But we can predict a growth in DTC genetic testing for certain diseases and fully expect that this kind of technology is going to be with us.23. What do we know about direct-to-consumer genetic testing?24. What is one of the reasons that some people worry about the DTC genetic testing?25. How is the future of DTC genetic testing?Section C26. available27. unique28. Specializing in29.

随着价格和建筑成本的不断上升,“自食其力”(DIY)趋势持续增长,我们需要为我们的客厅准备家具,“约翰·罗斯说,”我们只是没有足够的GH钱购买它。

所以我们决定试着做几张桌椅。

约翰六个月前结婚了,现在和许多年轻人一样,他们正努力在生活费用很高的时候回家。

Rosses在一所夜校上了280美元的为期两周的课程。

现在他们把所有的家具都修好了,修理房子周围的Jim Hatfield有三个男孩,他的妻子死了。

他在家里有一份全职工作,还有一家制鞋厂。

上个月,他收到了S420的一张汽车修理单,“我对此很苦恼。

约翰和吉姆并不是不寻常的人。

美国的大多数家庭都在尽其所能来省钱,这样他们就可以与高昂的生活费用抗争。

如果你想成为一个“自己动手”的人,你可以去上DIY课程。

对于那些没有时间参加课程的人来说,有一些书告诉你,你可以自己做事情。

我们中的一些人花了高中的时间去解剖青蛙,在偶尔的舞蹈中感到尴尬,但是西班牙的一小部分学生在教育时间方面做得更酷了:他们把数码相机送到了太空,一个老师和四个来自Catal莱斯拉比巴斯学校的学生。

西班牙航空公司购买了一个价值60美元的气球,并安装了一个80美元的数码相机,然后把它送上天空,拍摄一些高空照片。

这个小组只想看看他们是否能让他们自制的气象气球飞到大多数商用飞机飞行的高度。

但是到了30000英尺,气球一直爬升到离地球20英里远的地方,在太空的边缘。

利用气象传感器和谷歌地球追踪气
球的进展,团队追踪了大气状况,并捕捉了一些令人惊奇的照片。

四名学生和他们的老师在2009年2月完成了实验。

该小组自己建造了电子传感器部件,然后将它们连同摄像机一起放进一个保护性的外壳中,然后将钻机释放到天空中,气球上升到100英尺以上的高度,然后掉落地面。

该团队飞行超过10公里寻找气球和设备。

他们惊奇地发现,尽管暴露在极端恶劣的环境中,设备仍在发出信号。

尽管存在争议,直接面向消费者的基因检测正变得越来越流行。

这种基因测试更像是自己动手做的诊断。

它变得几乎一样容易作为一个家庭怀孕测试。

人们可以使用他们的信用卡在网上订购一套工具,用刷子去除一些脸颊细胞,返回工具并通过电子邮件接收报告。

DTC测试成本从几百美元到几千美元,可用于从乳腺到癌症的超过800个条件。

人口可能是特别准备DTC测试,因为它有一个自己动手的伦理,习惯于支付口袋里的医疗服务。

提供基因测试的公司热衷于广泛的DTC测试的前景。

他们认为基因测试与非DNA 测试没有什么不同。

但并不是每个人都为消费者能够接受基因测试而感到兴奋。

有些人担心DTC基因检测对公众构成危险。

患者可能会经历心理伤害,因为他们可能不理解结果意味着什么,那么在互联网上缺乏监管也可能导致这样一个事实,即网络给你的信息可能是非常误导和潜在的危害你。

然而,只要医生能帮助他们,许多人对缺乏监管感到满意。

那么DTC 基因测试的未来是什么呢?我们不能指望在未来几年里对基因疾病进行广泛的自我筛查。

但我们可以预测某些疾病的DTC基因检测的增长,并完全期待这种技术将与我们同在。
