My first job was shining shoes for customers when I was six years old. My duties increased as I grew older. By age ten I was clearing tables and washing plates.My father made it clear that I had to meet certain standards. I had to be on time, hard-working and polite to the customers. I was never paid for any work I did. One day I made the mistake of telling Dad I thought he should give me ten pounds a week. He said, "OK, then how about you paying me for the three meals a day when you eat here and for the times you bring your friends here for free drinks?" He figured I owed him about 40 pounds a week. This taught me quite a lot.Unit 2Part BText 1Exercise 1: 1. b 2. a 3. d 4. cExercise 2:1984 / son / medical school / tuition / afford it / realize / newspaper ads / extra business / advertisement / succeeded / agent / changed / phone call / put aside / doing / immediately / familiar / father-in-law's / visited / his father-in-law alive / coincidence.Text 2Exercise 1: 1.

TPART DUnexplained ParallelsOne of the best-known collections of parallels is between the careers of Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy. Both were shot on a Friday, in the presence of their wives; both were succeeded by a Southerner named Johnson; both their killers were themselves killed before they could be brought to justice. Lincoln had a secretary called Kennedy; Kennedy a secretary called Lincoln. Lincoln was killed in the Ford Theater; Kennedy met his death while riding in a Lincoln convertible made by the Ford Motor Company -- and so on.Similar coincidences often occur between twins. A news story from Finland reported of two 70-year-old twin brothers dying two hours apart in separate accidents, with both being hit by trucks while crossing the same road on bicycles. According to the police, the second victim could not have known about his brother's death, as officers had only managed to identify the first victim minutes before the second accident.Connections are also found between identical twins who have been separated at birth. Dorothy Lowe and Bridget Harrison were separated in 1945, and did not meet until 1979, when they were flown over from Britain for an investigation by apsychologist at the University of Minnesota. (8处答案为met,34)They found that when they met they were both wearing seven rings on their hands, two bracelets on one wrist, a watch and a bracelet on the other. They married on the same day, had worn identical wedding dresses and carried the same flowers. Dorothy had named her son Richard Andrew and her daughter Catherine Louise; Bridget had named herson Andrew Richard and her daughter Karen Louise.(10处答案similar自己看下这个不一定, children) In fact, she had wanted to call her Catherine. Both had a cat called Tiger. They also had a string of similar mannerisms when they were nervous.How can we explain the above similarities?Unit 3Part BText 1Exercise 1: 1. b 2. c 3.aExercise 2:1. Because she wanted to understand each other's expectations so that potential problems could be avoided and they could live happily together.2. Cleaning up.

One rule says that if they get lost for more than five minutes when they are driving, they must stop and ask for directions.2. Once Tom and Linda got lost when they were driving to a friend's wedding.3. Linda wanted to stop at a gas station to ask the way, but Tom thought he could figure it out.4. As a result, they were late for the wedding because they went in the wrong direction for forty miles.Part C1. ...not so special/not extremes2. a. ...get angry quickly b. ...change themselves... PART D原文Husbands and Wives Don't See Things AlikeLet's face it -- husbands and wives just don't see things alike. Take TV remote controls, for example. I'm a channel-grazer. When I watch the news, I flip back and forth through four different networks."It drives me crazy when you do that," my wife complains. I don't understand why she has no interest in other channels. After all, she is a woman who wants to know everything going on in the neighborhood and among all the relatives. Just one button away might be an interesting program on How to Lose Fifty Pounds by Eating Chocolate Sundaes or How toUnderstand Weird Husbands. But, no, she won't change channels, not even if she dislikes the program she's watching."This talk show host makes me so angry!" she cried one evening."Then why don't you change the channel?" I asked."Because I can't stand people who are always changing channels."Differences. No right or wrong, just differences."The first law of civilization," said an old philosopher, "is tolet people be different."I don't need to convert my wife to my ways, and she doesn't try to make me be like her. We simply take turns monitoring the remote control.1. The major difference between the speaker and his wife is their TV viewing habits.2. According to the speaker, he is more interested in talk shows while his wife is more interested in news programs.3. The wife seems to be more weird than the husband is.4. The speaker and his wife usually take turns working the remote control when they watch television.5. It can be inferred that women are generally more tolerant than men of their spouse's differences.6. The speaker and his wife maintain peace not by changing each other but by tolerance.Unit 4Part BText 1Exercise 1: 1. d 2. c 3.aExercise 2:Sam has been a police officer for 30 years. He has done everything from patrol to undercover work. He has also done detective work and now he is supervising investigations.Sam thinks being a police officer is a very stressful job, but it depends on the assignment one has. In his opinion the biggest pert of the stress is the fear of the unknown and patrol is the most stressful assignment.Text 2Exercise 1: 1. T 2. F 3. T 4. F 5. TExercise 2:1. ... One is an exercise program, another is a psychological program with counseling for officers.

Few people may realize, however, that painting the walls, knitting bedspreads or sewing pillows can help relieve the life pressures we all experience.Studies indicate that engaging in creative endeavors such as sewing and crafting can lower one's risk of stroke, kidney damage and heart disease.These calming, repetitive activities relax the mind and can lower blood pressure. Sharing such activities can also be a way to spend time with loved ones, which increases our sense of belonging and further reduces stress.People have always turned to working with their hands in times of stress. Handicraft works, with their symbols of hope, have a far greater impact when created by groups.Keep in mind the following tips to increase the stress-relieving benefits of your craft projects:1. Work with materials that stimulate the senses; work in a comfortable area without distractions; play your favorite music.2.(4处答案framing) Make a family project of selecting your favorite photos, and frame them so they can be enjoyed every day. In stressful times, the photos can lift your spirits as you recall happy moments.3. If your schedule is hectic, choose a practical project that will make the most of crafting time. If a simple kitchen curtain needs to be replaced, start there.Change sometimes compels us to see things in new ways.Unit 5Part BText 1Exercise 1: 1. D 2.

What's wrong?Jenny: Well, Roger, I've got a problem.Roger: What is it?Jenny: You know my daughter Jane is 16 years old now. And we've begun talking about college. She says she wants to go, but she's let her grades slip and no matter how I urge her to study, all she seems interested in are clothes and boys. We're not wealthy, you know. And it won't be easy for us to afford the tuition if she can't get a scholarship. Is going to college the best choice for her right now?Roger: Do you mean that she doesn't seem ready for college?Jenny: You're right.Roger: Then you'd better have a serious talk with Jane about college. Jenny: A serious talk with her?Roger: Yes, to my mind it's quite normal for girls her age to be wrapped up in fashion and dating, but as a mother you havea right to expect her to pay attention to her studies too.Jenny: Yes, but how?。

Unit1Transcript Lesson One Audio StudioClip 1Melting Polar IceThe latest evidence comes from opposite ends of our planet, but the story it tells is thesame. At the North Pole, new satellite photos show Arctic ice is melting so fast, many scientists now predict it will be gone within 30 years. Some researchers think it could disappear in just six. At the South Pole, an ice shelf the size of Connecticut is in danger of melting because theice bridge that held it in place has shattered. It’s one of ten ice shelves that have shrunk or collapsed in the past 50 years. Some were 10,000 years old. Polar ice works as the earth’s airconditioner. Without it, there could be a snowball effect with temperatures rising even faster. Governments all around the world have to take the lead in solving this crisis, but eachof us has to do our part to reduce greenhouse gasses. If we all don’t take bold action — and take it soon — we will all find ourselves on very thin ice. If we’re lucky.Warm-up1）A string of warmer years 2）Polar ice is melting fast 3）Extreme weathersTask 1 Note-taking1) opposite ends of our planet 2) North 3) melting so fast 4) it will be gone within 30 years 5) it could disappear in just six 6) South 7) in danger of melting 8) shattered 9) 5010) one of ten11) shrunk12) collapsed13) 10,000Task 2 Dictation1) as the earth’s air conditioner 2) a snowball effect with temperatures rising even faster 3)take the lead in solving this crisis 4) do our part to reduce greenhouse gasses 5) all find ourselves on very thin iceClip 2 Who Is Paying the Price for Climate ChangeClimate change is already melting the Arctic, queering weather and threatening foodsupplies. So who’s paying the price for all these global warming impacts It might seem likeinsurers are most at risk. Indeed, insurers did pay out some $33 billion in climate-related damages last year in the U.S. alone. But it turns out that bearing the brunt of climate change costs is you, the taxpayer. A new analysis by the Natural Resources Defense Council, the NRDC, finds that the federal government spent three times more than the private insurance industry on climate change impacts last year. And, of course, those federal efforts are entirely funded by taxpayers.“It is in effect a climate disruption tax, equivalent to a 2.7 percentage point increase in what Americans paid in sales taxes last year.” That's Daniel Lashof, director of the NRDC's Climateand Clean Air Program and co-author of the report. We spent nearly $100 billion in 2012 on drought-related crop insurance, storms like Hurricane Sandy, floods and wildfires. By comparison the nation spent $95 billion on education last year and just $91 billion on transportation. Greenhouse gas pollution shows no signs of slowing, recently touching 400 parts-per-million. And as that number continues to rise, so will the price.Task 1 Note-taking1) insurers 2) risk 3) out some $33 billion 4) damages5) taxpayer 6) three times more than7) funded by taxpayersTask 2 True or False1) T 2) F 3) FLesson Two Audio StudioClip 1 Brighter LivingWith all the news about climate change, sometimes reversing it or slowing it down seemsimpossible, but it’s not. The key is making small simple changes in your daily life. Then multiply that by the millions of us, and we’ve got real results in the long run. Install aprogrammable thermostat that adjusts itself when you are not at home so you are not cooling or heating an empty house. If every home in America did this, the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions would be the same as taking six millions cars off the road. Next, wash your clothes in cold water instead of hot. Look for appliances that have been given the energy star seal of approval by the EPA. These models use ten to fifty percent less energy than standard models. Buy fresh foods whenever possible. Frozen foods use ten times the energy to produce and get to the supermarket. Finally, head to your home improvement store and pick up an insulation blanket. They go from ten or twenty bucks, to wrap around your hot water heater.Warm-up1) buy fresh food whenever possible 2) buy and wear clothes made of eco-friendly materials 3) save electricity, water 4) take more public transportation, ride bicycles or just walkTask 1 Note-taking1) programmable 2) adjusts 3) cooling or heating an empty house 4) in cold water instead of hot 5) appliances that have been given the energy stars 6) fresh foods whenever possible7) home improvement storeTask 2 Sound Club1) multiplied up 2) millions of us 3) greenhouse gas emissions 4) taking six millions cars offthe roadClip 2 Huston University-reduce University Carbon FootprintThe University of Houston is emerging as a leader in sustainability, working to reduce its carbon footprint. The University of Houston is looking at how can we lead in sustainability worldwide. What does that really mean So, leadership for sustainability is about building relationships, about heightening dialogue, heightening our critical thinking, really talking about the needy issues. The efforts are educational, like turning the eighty-eight solar panels donated through a grant from Green Mountain Energy into a learning opportunity for engineering students as well as enriching, such as the community garden tended by students.“We grow produce that we then donate to local food pantry and students are the primary volunteers for this garden. It’s really close by to where we live and it’s kind of important for us to give back to literally the local community in which we are living and that’s part of the idea about sustainability. Connecting to community, seeing what their needs are, seeing what our resources and our needs are, things like that.”Warm-up1) enhance the public’s awareness; promote actions; …2) educational efforts in various formshelp organize environmental protection campaigns in daily life, such as garbage classification Task 1 Note-taking1)reduce its carbon footprint 2)building relationships 3)heightening dialogue 4)heightening our critical thinking5)talking about the needy issuesTask 2 Dictation1)turning 2)donated 3)enriching 4)tended 5)grow6)donate 7)live8)give 9)Connecting10)seeingHome Listening1) push 2) effort 3) concept 4) Alternative 5) resources 6) elements 7) as complex as 8) deal with 9) over the next few decades 10) positive changesUnit2Transcript Lesson One Audio StudioClip 1Are People Inherently Good or BadThe argument between nature and nurture influencing how we behave has been had many times. But now scientists are studying infants to try to understand if we are inherently good or bad. Yale University researchers working with infant children have had some interesting results. They staged a puppet show in which one puppet is trying to go uphill but keeps falling back down. Two more puppets appear; one that wants to help the first figure up the hill and another that is trying to push them back down. What the researchers found was that after the puppet show, when given the choice, the infants reach down for the puppet that tries to help the other one push uphill rather than the other one who is trying to push them both back down. In another study the same researchers introduced a neutral character thatdidn’t try to help or hinder the work. The infants still chose the helper over the neutralcharacter but also chose the neutral character over the one trying to hinder the progress. Scientists think this means that even infants with no language abilities can identify with motivations and are prone to like things that help them achieve rather than things that try to hold them back.Task 1 Note-taking1) Two 2) Infant children 3) Two puppet shows 4) reach down for the puppet they like 5) the helper 6) the neutral character 7) the neutral character 8) trying to hinder the progress 9) infants 10) language abilities 11) help them achieve 12) hold them backTask 2 Dictation1) stage 2) falling 3) appear 4) push 5) found 6) reachClip 2 Nature vs. Nurture-parent InfluenceWe are all born with certain physical characteristics determined by our genes, but does our DNA dictate how we act William R. Clark: Genes may very well determine how we behave in given situations.Dr. Dean Edell: Researchers say they are learning now that genes help control how we interpret our environment. Steven Pinker: There has to be some kind of innate circuitry in place that allows us to create culture and acquire culture and do the learning. Dr. Dean Edell: But can environment influence which genes are triggered David Moore: What really matters is which genes are turned on and which genes are turned off, and different genes are turned on and off in different circumstances. Dr. Dean Edell: That leaves to debate over the role parents play in influencing their children. Steven Pinker: Parents aren't the only aspect of the environment; there is also the surrounding culture. Dr. Dean Edell: Some believe the stronger social influences happen outside the home. Judith Rich Harris: Children live in separate worlds and each world is very important, but there is very little carry-over from one world to the other, and what is carried over is whatever is genetic. Dr. Dean Edell: Controversial author, Judith Rich, says how well a child turns out is up to the child, not the parent. Others find that troubling. Stanley Greenspan: We encourage parents to be either passive or hopeless or helpless in the face of certain challenges that they would assume were genetic. Male Speaker: As the debate rages, what's clear is that as scientists study DNA, they are learning more about ways to fight disease and perhaps understand better what makes us tick.

You can help keep your brain young with somesimple lifestyle changes such as: moderate amount of exercise, eating well, managing your stress. Exercising three to five times a week increases blood flow to the brain which keeps it working smarter and reduces the risks of mini strokes ( transient ischemic attack 短暂性缺血发作). It’s fairly common when we see someone with early memory troubles we’ll see acertain degree of mini strokes that have occurred over time. Healthy eating will alsodecrease stroke risk. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, like fish and walnuts are very important for brain health. It seems that people who eat a lot of fish and sea food tend to have a healthier brain aging overall. As to those eat a plant-based diet and reducing the stress through meditation also helps keep our brains younger longer. Significant stress causes brain changes that can lead to memory loss. Doctor Hu says mediators tend to have better bloodflow to the brain’s frontal cortex — the area where one must use to stay sharp andmulti-task and make accurate decisions. So if you want to stay smarter longer, take steps now to improve your lifestyle by exercising, eating right and meditating. For today’s health minute, I am Susan Hendricks.Task 1 Note-taking1) Moderate amount of exercise 2) Working smarter and reduces the risks of mini strokes 3) Eating well 4) Very important for brain health 5) Managing your stress 6) Brain changes that can lead to memory loss.Task 2 Short Answer Questions1. A certain degree of mini strokes.2. People who eat a lot of fish and sea food.3. Meditation.Clip 2 Keep Your Brain Smart with Simple ChangesGood morning in today in Healthwatch. Nature nurtures creativity. Disconnecting from our digital devices seems to become more difficult every day. But there is now one more reasonto take a vacation in the great outdoors. A new study finds spending time with nature is good for your mind. It even improves problem-solving abilities and creativity by fifty percent. Researchers looked at fifty six people with an average age of 28 and split them into two groups. The first took a creativity test before a backpacking trip, and the second took on the fourth day of the trip. Those who took it before had an average score of about 4. And those who took it on the fourth day scored just about 6. The second group was not only more creative, but also better at problem solving. Researchers cannot say whether the improvements were due to more nature, less technology or both. But they say extended periods in front of a computer likely has cognitive costs, and going for a hike could help reverse them. It may also be more crucial now than ever.

As you know our Bill Leer traveled more than 5000 miles across China to bring us an unprecedented look at all the different ways the country is affecting nearly every part of our lives this morning. And what every American worker needs to know about China,about their jobs is the subject of Bill’s. “Well we are in our Good Morning America bedroom this morning as many viewers of you are getting ready for your day here. Your day started thanks to China, because 80 percent of the clocks in this country are made in China.”“80 percent”“80 percent of the clocks are made in China. When the Chinese start dumping bedroom sets in America, a third of American wooden furniture manufacturers lost theirjobs. Chinese not only invented the toothbrush, they probably made yours, and your coffee maker and your towels. When they slashed sock prices a few years ago, a third of American sock manufacturers went out of business. And the shoes, these Nikes, brand-new, pretty nice, $74, right. The question is what would they cost if they were made in America So to find out and to find out how many other American jobs are in danger because of all this low price stuff. I followed this made-in-China label, 7000 miles right to the source.Task 1 Dictation1)surprises 2)series 3)fortune 4)more than 5000 miles 5)unprecedented 6)different 7)affecting 8)subjectTask 2 Note-taking1) 80 percent of the clocks in America are made in China 2) One-third of American wooden furniture manufacturers lost their jobs. 3) Chinese invented the toothbrush 4) One-third of American sock manufacturers went out of business. 5) Brand-new, pretty nice, $74, made in China.Clip 2 Breaking the “Bamboo Ceiling”When you think about, you know, sort of the factory innovation luxury, you end up with the brand like LiNing. Lining is sort of the Chinese Nike, as you can see, the Chinese AirJordan.LiNing is also a man, he is a China’s most famous Olympic athlete if you watched the Opening Ceremonies of the 2008 Olympic Games. You’ll remember him lighting the torch high above the stadium. You know what’s interesting is LiNing basically represents sort ofthe innovation and luxury model for China, which is basically brought in American designers. LiNing has tremendous name recognition already in China. He had support from the state. He has tremendous resources at his advantage, and basically he went up against Adidas and Nike, and in last year or so he has gotten crushed. He hit what some have called the bamboo ceiling. The idea that even Chinese consumers will not buy domestic brands when they have the opportunity to buy the foreign luxury brands. And so therefore LiNing is now struggling to reposition itself as more of a value commodity as something for people in the second and third tier cities, rather than as a luxury product. So it is easy, I think, for many of us to basically retreat into our default mindset, that once again China, excellent at manufacturing, excellent at efficiency, it can build the brand.Task 1 Note-taking1) the Chinese Nike and the Chinese Air Jordan. 2) lit the torch in the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games. 3) the sort of the innovation and luxury model for China 4) name recognition already 5) the state6) reposition himselfTask 2 Idea Box1) It refers to the idea that even Chinese consumers will not buy domestic brands when they have the opportunity to buy the foreign luxury brands. 2) open 3) openLesson Two Audio StudioClip 1 China Eyes Sophisticated Luxury GoodsAfter a market cultivating period since the end of last century to the beginning of this century, Chinese luxury goods market is gradually growing bigger, while western customers are tightening their belts as their economy remains mired in a sluggish recovery. The Chinesepublic’s appetite for high-end products has soared. China’s consumer luxury goods market isoutpacing every other luxury market in the world, with an estimated of growth of 23 percent in 2010. A rapidly expanding middle and upper class in China seek to enhance their identity and quality of life with luxury goods. Top-growth categories for luxury goods in China include: liquor (酒), fashion accessories and clothes, cars, jewelry and cosmetics. A report from theChinese Academy of Social Sciences says, “China will rank as the world’s largest market for luxury goods in 5 years’ time.” Over the past few years, China’s purchasing power for luxury goods has been growing at the pace of 20 percent annually. Right now, China’s largest groupof luxury goods consumers are between 20 and 30 yearsold, which means they have many consuming years still ahead of them, and the average age of Chinese high-end goods consumers is 15 years younger than the world average. As China becomes the fastest growing luxury goods market, it is not only attracting imported goods but western brands have also begun to design luxury goods to Chinese tastes. Experts say in the next 5 years, the Chinese luxury goods market will grow even larger.Task 1 Dictation1. cultivating2. luxury3. tightening their belts4. recovery5. appetite6. outpacing7. Estimated8.

After all, we are talking about a huge population with a growing economy, not to mention relative isolation from the social unrest, financial trauma and natural disasters that have disturbedthe world’s other major markets. But there is a deeper connection, luxury brands thrive herebecause they operate in both horizontal and vertical dimensions. In much of the west, taste is defined as a having unique personal style. Be yourself. Follow your instincts. Ugly can bebeautiful. Street style can be elegant. Under this framework, the only sin is insincerity. That’sa horizontal market, which is great for creativity, but not so great for luxury. China is different. Thousands of years of rigid society have left a deep mark. People here acknowledge the difference between low and high. So taste is not knowing yourself, it requires improving yourself. This is not about just showing face, which means tacky bling, sure that happens. Spending on luxury demonstrates your values, your culture, your virtue, your knowledge. This is the vertical dimension. Nobody understands this like the French. It is why Louie Vuitton knows to stake out the biggest, most lavish retail space in a mall. It is whycognac outsells whiskey, even at night clubs blasting hip-hop. We’re still at early phases here.After decades of austerity, China is rediscovering its imperial routes.

At first I was really appreciative, you know, it's nice to feel that people are concerned when you live alone.Steve: Yeah, it is nice.Kara: Now, though, she comes every day… sometimes more than once! She always brings me homemade soup…Steve: Homemade soup! That is so great! I wish someone cooked for me.Kara: Sure, having some home-cooked food is a treat, but she sits and watches me to make sure I eat it! Last time, I had just eaten dinner when she came over and insisted that I finish a whole bowl. She wouldn't leave until I did!Steve: Oh, c'mon, you could have it much worse.Kara: And, every time I go out she leans out the door to ask where I am going. It's like I'm 17 again!Steve: Would you rather have loud neighbors who kept you up all night?Kara: Well, it's not only her. It's the old man, too. He is such a flirt, and I've always thought it was cute.

Well, maybe you remind him of his granddaughter.Kara: Well, yeah, but don't you think it's kind of weird for him to kiss me?ScriptRachel: So, Susie, how was the plane ride from London?Susie: Oh, I don’t know…all I could think about was getting here and going shopping. Rachel: Hmmm.Susie: Rachel, what’s wrong?Rachel: Susie, I thought you came to see me! Isn’t that more important than shopping?Susie: Oh c’mon, Rachel. Shopping is so bonding!Rachel: All right, I’ll take you to the stores. What are you looking fly?Susie: Well, I want a handbag from Prada, and maybe one of their black leather dresses…Rachel: Oh no…Susie: …a couple of skirts from Donna Karan, you know, the ones that a re really fitted, a pair of jeans…Rachel: Whoa! How much money do you have, anyway?Susie: Oh, Rachel, you know I save up to come to New York every year to go shopping. Now that you’re studying here, I want to go with you. So what are you going to get?Ra chel: Are you kidding, Susie? I’ve got two words for you: “student budget.” I can’t afford to buy any clothing!Susie: Well, you’re just a jeans and T-shirt person, aren’t you? I am going to enjoy myself no matter how much it costs. I’m on holiday. Look, Rachel, I’ll buy you something, a new blouse , or skirt, whatever you want.Rachel: Well, I don’t want anyone to buy me something I can’t afford myself.Susie: Oh, don’t worry about that.

Oh,I rma: No, I didn’t say I got the management job. He hired me for a job in customer service, selling hired me for a job in customer service, selling tours to Asia.Richard: Just customer service? But what about the management position? You were perfect for that job. You can supervise people. You understand the business.Irma: I know. I showed him my resume. I told him that I worked in travel management for five years back home, and that I even got a degree in Business Management here in the U.S. Richard: Oh, I can’t believe that. You’re perfectly qualified for that management position. Irma: That’s what I thought. It’s not fair! Why did I bother going to college here?Richard: Wait, wait a minute. Did he know that you were applying for the management position. Irma: Of course. And you know what he said?Richard: What?Irma: He said that everyone really expects the manager to be someone from the local community. But the person they hired is from New York. And she’s a woman, too, so it’s not because I am a woman. So that means the problem is my English.Richard: But your English is fantastic!Irma: But I’m not a native speaker, and I guess that’s what they want for the management job.Richard: Well, you know, you spend a little time at the customer service job and then you can work your way up to the management position…ScriptAmy: I know I have a picture of Luis around here some-where. Oh, here it is.Erika: wow! He’s so handsome! He looks like a Greek statue.Amy: Yeah, he is very attractive. But I didn’t think so when I first met him.Erika: You didn’t?Amy: No. You know what I noticed when I first met him? He has really hairy hands.Erika: What?Amy: Yeah. His hands are just really hairy. Plus, his clothes were way more fashionable than I usually like. He just wasn’t my type. And on top of all that, he was shorter than me.Erika: So how come you went out with him?Amy: Well, he was just really sweet and funny and I was so comfortable just hanging out with him. And the first time we went out he just swept me away with his personality.Erika: Really, how?Amy: He was just really easy to talk to.Erika: But still, if all those things bothered you, about his hands and all…Amy: well, you know, none of that was important once I got to know him more. His personality a nd the way we got along just made it clear to me that he is “the one.”Erika: So, when’s the big day?ScriptEddie: Hey, what’s up with you, Marty? You look kind of bummed out.Marty: You haven’t heard?Eddie: Heard what?Marty: Kristy and Shawna are moving in with us.Eddie: Yeah, I heard. Simon got transferred to Florida, right?Marty: Yeah, so he and Lily got to go there first and do a whole bunch of stuff. That means that we get stuck with the twin brats.Eddie: Ah, come on, Marty. They aren’t brats.Ma rty: Yeah, but you know what it’s going to mean? Mom and Dad aren’t going to have any time for us anymore. And it’s going to get even more crowded here. Just one big happy family! Eddie: Yeah, there’s a lot of us now, that’s for sure. I hear we’re going to have to sleep in the living room so that Kristy and Shawna can have our room.Marty: I wish we were back in our old house—just us, Mom and Dad.Eddie: Yeah, sometimes I do, too.Marty: And I wish Mom and Dad wouldn’t try to solve everybody’s problems.Edd ie: I don’t think that will change. You know your mom wants to take care of everybody. She doesn’t want to say no if anybody needs he.Marty: But nobody ever asks me what I want!Eddie: Kids never get to say what goes on in their house. That’s the way it i s.Marty: Yeah, you’re right. But now everything in this house is going to be Kristy and Shawna, Kristy and shawna. Or else Grandma.Eddie: Hey, don’t get mad at your grandma. She’s in a lot of pain, you know.Marty: I know. I’m not really mad at her. I’m mad at Mon and Dad. They used to always have time to help me with my homework, or play games with me, but they’re always too busy. And now it’s going to get even worse.Eddie: Hey, maybe I can help you with your homework. Bring it here.Marty: Really? You mean it? I’m really stuck on this math.Eddie: Sure. While things are kind of tough around here, I’ll help you out as much as I can.ScriptSteve: I can’t believe these people. I can’t believe what they do.Trish: Calm down, Steve. What are you talking about?Steve: Look at this. I just bought a donut. I’m so sick of the clerk wrapping each pastry individually, then taping the bags shut, then putting those bags in another bag, folding it down, and then taping that bag shut. I can’t take it anymore. It’s crazy and it’s bad for the environment. Trish: How long have you been living here? Don’t you know that’s the way it is?Steve: I just want them to stick ‘em in a napkin for me , so I can eat while I’m walking to class. Trish: There you go again. Don’t you know it’s rude to eat while you walk?Steve: I’m so tired of this place. I don’t have time to sit down and eat. People here are too inflexible, and they have too many rules.Trish: Yeah, right, Steve, so you’re gonna convert everybody here to your way of doi ng things? Steve: Yeah, there has to be more individual freedom to do whatever you want.Trish: Why don't you just relax and go with the flow?Steve: Go with the flow? The whole system is a waste of my time. The clerks here should learn how to be more efficient, like in the U.S.Trish: What are you talking about? When I was in the U.S., the clerks were really rude. They just ignore you, and seem offended if you want anything. Don't you think it’s better this way? Steve: Are you kidding?Trish: Well, I kind of like it. It’s nice to relax and enjoy the moment while your packages are being wrapped. I like all of the traditions, and the care and attention that people give you, and the manners. To me, it’s a wonderful place to live.Steve: I think you’re nuts.Tr ish: You’re not gonna last long, mate.ScriptAndy: Hey, Bob. How are ya? Come and see what I’ve got.Bob: Is that another new computer?Andy: Yeah. Look how fast it is.Bob: Wow! I can’t believe it. And I thought your other computer was fast!Andy: It is fast, but this one’s like lightning.Bob: And the picture’s so clear.Andy: Mmm. Isn’t it? The color is pretty impressive, too, don’t you think?Bob: Yeah. You always have the latest, don’t you?Andy: You bet. This machine is right on the cutting edge of t echnology. You wouldn’t believe how much it can do. Apart from e-mail and free Internet service, I can watch TV on it while surfing. With this new desktop program, I can watch TV, e-mail, streamline videos, and scan artwork. And it’s not that expensive to upgrade, either. Uh, speaking of computers, how’s yours?Bob: Yeah, it’s fine. Thanks!Andy: I know I gave you a good deal. It was only a year old. Still, are you sure it meets all your needs? Maybe you should think about upgrading.Bob: you know me – the only things tat I need a computer for are e-mail and word processing. Andy: Yeah, but does it give you room to expand? If you want to be able to do more two years from now, will your computer be able to handle it?Bob: Well I don’t know. But I kind of doubt that I’ll need a new one anytime soon.Andy: Yeah, but with computers, there’s always a new model coming out that can do so much more. If you don’t keep up with technology, you'll get left behind.Bob: well, what’s wrong with that?ScriptDoctor: Hi, Julie. How are you?Julie: Her, Dr. Cassidy. I’m actually fine. It’s just that I’ve been a little tired the last few days, and my stomach is kinda upset.Doctor: Well, that doesn’t surprise me. I have some news that you might find exciting. You’re pregnant.Julie: No way!Doctor: Yes, you’re going to have a baby.Julie: Are you kidding me? Ah, I need a cigarette.Doctor: That’s the last thing you need. You need to stop smoking, and immediately.Julie: But I can’t stop smoking.Doctor: For your baby’s health, Julie, I’m afraid you have to.Julie: But smoking is the only way I can relax! It helps me when I’m stressed out.Doctor: Now, there are a number of things that are extremely important for pregnant mothers, and not smoking is only one of them. Another is to stop drinking alcohol. Do you drink?Julie: Well, I have a glass of wine with dinner, but I’m not an alcoholic. And I thought a little bit was supposed to be good for you anyway.Doctor: If you drink while you’re pregnant, your child coul d have birth defects. I cannot emphasize enough, Julie, the importance of quitting.Julie: Okay, then. What else is there?Doctor: Well, coffee.Julie: Do I have to give up everything I enjoy? I need coffee to wake me up in the morning. Doctor: I’m afraid,Julie, you’ll have to stop drinking that, too. Caffeine affects the baby’s heart rate. And, it’s also important to get regular exercise.Julie: You’re kidding! I have to quit smoking, stop drinking alcohol and coffee, and on top of all that, I have to start exercising? Boy, it is amazing that anybody ever gets pregnant.Doctor: I really hope you’ll take this seriously, Julie.ScriptSue: Randy, what’s going on in this picture? It looks like you have blood all over your shirt. Randy: No, that’s not blood. It’s ketchup.Sue: Ketchup? What happened?Randy: This happened when Tim and I were traveling around Asia. We were in Bangkok.Randy: …and we had reservations to catch an overnight bus to Chiang Mai.Sue: Yeah.Randy: And we were waiting at a ki ng of restaurant that was sort of a travel agency…and we went early, but the bus didn’t come, and I was getting kind of worried.Sue: Yeah…but what’s that got to do with ketchup?Randy: So, I was beginning to wonder if we’d been cheated, because we’d alrea dy paid for our tickets in advance.Sue: Right.Randy: Then, finally, a van pulled up , and we thought, no , this is not the bus…but then everyone else who was waiting pushed right past us and jumped in , and, bam!—just like that, the van drove away. And then this sweet little Thai woman, who was the tickets, came up to us.Sue: Yeah, and …Randy: …and she said, “Why you no get on?” And Tim was like, “ That wasn’t the bus, was it?” “Only one, why you not get on?” And I didn’t know she was talking about…Sue: So what happened?Randy: Well, the travel agent jus shrugged and turned and went inside her shop. Neither of us could believe it. I started to get really angry , like we’d been cheated, and now it’s dark and we’re stranded in this little restaurant…Sue: Oh, no…Randy: I followed her inside, I started arguing. I told her, “We paid for the bus. You didn’t tell us to look for a van. Now you have to get us a taxi to Chiang Mai. Now.” And I started pointing at the clock. I think that was the last straw for t he woman, because she started shouting. “You no go. You no go Chiang Mai!” She grabbed a ketchup bottle off the table you know, one of those plastic squirt ketchup bottles, and she squirted ketchup at me!Sue: No! She didn’t!Randy: Yeah! She did. And then she threw the bottle at me. And Tim snapped the picture. Just then the same van pulled up and the woman said, “Now you go.”Sue: So you got on the van.Randy: Yeah, we ended up at the bus terminal, where this big, air-conditioned tour bus was waiting to go to Chiang Mai. And all the people who had pushed ahead of us earlier were there, waiting to leave. I felt SO stupid for getting angry at the woman and making such a fool of myself. Sue: You must have felt terrible.Randy: Yeah, I wished there was some way I could go back and apologize to her. I realized that I have to be more patient, especially when I’m in another country.ScriptEd: Are you worried about having enough money? Are you worried about paying your bills? Well, worry no more!Customer-1: I use d to watch every penny. But now I’m worth four million dollars, and it’s all thanks to Steven Crowe!Customer-2: I used to get headaches from worrying about money. I had a lot of credit-card debt, and my mortgage payments were killing me. Then I got Steven Crowe’s videos, and learned how to make real money.Ed: “Real money.” That’s the name of this 3-video set by Steven Crowe. Let Steven show you how to become financially independent buying and selling real estate.Steven Crowe: Hi! I’m Steven Crowe. I used to worry about money, too. I felt like a victim of the system. But then I found a way to make the system work—for me.Ed: What’s the trick, Steven?Steven Crowe: There’s no trick, Ed. It’s simple, once you understand how real estate really works. All you need to know is how to buy low and sell high. And that’s exactly what my videos teach you to do.Ed: And you can get really rich?Steven Crowe: Just ask some people who have “Real Money.”Customer-1: After I got the “Real Money” videos, I bought my first house, following Steven’s simple rules. Six months later I sold it and bought two more houses. A year after that, I had enough money to quit my job. Now I have more money than I’ll ever need, and it’s such a great feeling.Steven Crowe: I want you to have that feeling, too. And you can.Ed: Call now to order “Real Money.” 1-800-289-7325.

The stupid train was late again, and I missed my connection, and…gosh, I’m tired already, and the day hasn’t even started.Lori: How long is your commute?Carrie: Almost an hour and a half, on a good day. Three hours of my life every day, five days a week, you know. I’ve got to wake up at six in the morning just to make it in to work by nine or so.I feel like a techno-self.Lori: that is long. I can walk here in 15 minutes. But you know, at least your commute is green. You can look at the trees and small towns…it must be nice.Carrie: For the first 20 minutes yeah. But as soon as the train gets closer to the city, it is all concrete and steel. That’s when it starts to get really crowded. Today so many people were in the train that I felt like a sardine in a big sardine can.Lori: Well, you could always move closer to the office.Carrie: But I love living in the country. The air is so fresh and clean, and I can have a bigger place and it’s safe and all that. I just wish I had more time to enjoy it. Sometimes it seems like my whole life is get up early/take the train/work all day/take the train home/go to bed, and then wale up and do it all over again.Lori: Wel l, can’t you find a way to make the trip more worthwhile?Carrie: Well, I read the newspaper and sometimes I bring a book, but I don’t really enjoy it. Lori: How about audiotapes or CDs? There’re novels or language learning tapes, relaxation tapes, relaxation tapes , all kinds of stuff on tape and CD.Carrie: Yeah, good idea, maybe I’ll look into it. Anything will be better than complaining about this commute all the time.Lori: Yeah, that’s for sure!ScriptAnna: Margaret, what’s the scariest thing that ev er happened to you?Margaret: The scariest thing? Surviving the San Jose earthquake.Anna: You were in the San Jose earthquake? Tell me what happened.Margaret: Well, I was living in an apartment downtown with my friend Julia. And we were still sleep on a Tuesday morning, and a little after six o’clock, there was this horrible sound and the floor was just bouncing and rolling like waves, all at the same time.Anna: Oh my gosh! What did you do?Margaret: well, it took a second or two to figure out what was going on—that it was an earthquake. Then I climbed out of bed and under the table, and I shouted at Julia to come, but she just pulled the covers over her head like it was a bad dream or something.Anna: Whoa!Margaret: It lasted 24 seconds, and then it stopped. And Julia and I could hear people talking outside, so we tried to go out the front door , but it was jammed shut. And then the first aftershock hit.Anna: That must have been horrifying!Margaret: Well, I remember that someone shouted, “Get out of there, quickly!” And we shouted back, “We can’t! The door won’t open.” So they said, “Well, come out the window.” But I called out, “it’s too high up,” because we were living on the second floor. “Not any more,” the person shouted back. So, we looked out the window and , sure enough, we were down on the ground! Anna: Your second floor apartment was on the ground?Margaret: We couldn’t believe it. We opened the window and crawled out, and somebody helped us over all this rubble. Once we were down safely, we turned around and looked back at our apartment building. The whole first floor was gone—it was just totally flattened. And then Julia looked at me and said, “Margaret. Mr. Sanchez!” He was this elderly man who lived on the first floor.Anna: Oh, no. How horrible!Margaret: Yeah. Julia and I both just burst into tears. He never had a chance.ScriptDr. Monroe: This is Dr. Ellen Monroe on Love Talk. This is the part of the show where we listen to our callers’ advice. Tonight we have Sunhee, a woman with a love problem. Sunhee, tell us about your problem.Sunhee: I’m from a Korean family, and I’m in love with a man from India that I met here in the U.S.Dr. Monroe: Okay, and…Sunhee: He’s asked me to marry him, and I said yes.Dr. Monroe: So what is the problem?Sunhee: It’s my parents. They’re very traditional, so I’m afraid of telling them that I’m engaged. I’m worried that they won’t let me marry him.Dr. Monroe: Hmm.Sunhee: I can’t go against my parents’ will, but this is the man I want to marry.Dr. Monroe: Hmm. That’s Sunhee’s problem, folks. Now, what’s your advice to her?Sunhee: Hello. What’s your advice for our worried friend?Carla: Hello. I’m Carla, from Canada, and I married a Chinese man five years ago. When I first told my parents I wanted to marry a foreigner with different religious beliefs, they were very angry. You see, they’re very traditional. They’ve always expected me to marry someone Canadian, from the same religious background.Dr. Monroe: Then what happened?Carla: For four years, they hardly talked to me, and they never came to visit us. it was like they disowned me…Dr. Monroe: Four years, you say. After four years something changed?Carla: Yes. When our little girl was born, I sent my parents a picture of her, and wrote, “Your granddaugh ter would like to see you.” A week later they called, and a month after that they came to see us – well, they came to see my daughter, any-way. Now they’re trying –they still aren’t comfortable with my husband, but they’re trying to understand him.Dr. Mo nroe: So, what’s your advice?Carla: Don’t give in to tradition. Marry the person you love. But have your first child soon –don’t wait four years like I did. That’s too long to be divided from your parents.Dr. Monroe: Sounds like good advice to me.ScriptSarah: You know, Richard, I really think we ought to fix up our apartment a little.Richard: What for? What’s wrong with it the way it is?Sarah: Are you kidding? It’s so empty.Richard: Come on. A room is just a room. Why do we have to fill it up with a bunch of junk? Besides, it costs money.Sarah: Well, it doesn’t have to be that expensive. I know this really neat little thrift store around the corner. We can go there and get a few simple things, just make it feel like a home.Richard: A few things? Oh, man, this is going to cost money.Sarah: it doesn’t have to cost a lot.Richard: Why can’t we just leave it the way it is? I like it. I feel comfortable here. You start putting a lot of nice things around and it’s going to be a museum.Sarah: But, Richa rd, we’re not the only ones that are going to be here. We want to have friends over, you know, have people over to study. They’ve got to have places to sit.Richard: Hey, that’s a good idea. We could get a couple of psychedelic posters and a lava lamp. Get a black light. Crank up the stereo. We could have cool parties here.Sarah: Parties, Richard? Richard, we are not going to have any time to party. We are going to be way too busy studying. That's what we’re in college for!Richard: College is about having parties about having friends over. I don’t want something that looks like my parents’ house.Sarah: Look. It doesn’t have to look like your parents’ house. We just need a few simple things like chairs. Maybe some plants you know, it’ll just make it nice a nd homey.Richard: Homey? Okay, I’m not looking for homey. I’m a college student.Sarah: At this rate, we’re never going to find anything that we both like.Richard: Yeah, well, at least we can agree on that.ScriptWhitney: Welcome to Life’s Concerns.

ScriptSharon: Hey, Karen, is that you?Karen: Sharon, wow! I can’t believe it! Yes, it's me. Gosh, it’s good to see you!Sharon: You, too! What’s it been? Something like 20 yearsKaren: Yeah, I can’t believe we’re that old already.Sharon: Life sure has treated well. You look great!Karen: Thanks you do too! What’ve you been doing all this time? I remember you couldn’t wait to marry Jim and start a family.Sharon: Hah! I never did get married. I was too busy with school and then my job. I don’t even know what happened to Jim.Karen: So what do you do?Sharon: I have my own advertising agency.Karen: Come on, Sharon! You?Sharon: Really. I majored in marketing in college and afterwards got a job with an advertising agency. I worked my way up, and when I felt I understood the business really well, I left to start my own agency.Karen: Wow, that’s pretty impressive. No wonder you haven’t had any time to get married. Sharon: Yeah. So, anyway, what about you? You were the one who was going to travel the world and do your own thing. You didn’t want to get stuck being a housewife.Karen: Hah! You’re gonna laugh, but I AM a housewife, and a mother of three.Sharon: Oh, come on, Karen, you’re not serious, are you? What happened to the travel? Karen: Well, I did travel around Europe for a year with some friends. But then I met Stan, and we got married right away. I helped put him through medical school, and then we had our children. I love being able to focus on my family, and when they leave home, I'm going to start my career—if it's not too late!Sharon: It's never too lateScriptCesar: TJ, my man! I heard you won the Pro-Am stake-boarding contest last weekend.TJ: Yeah, Cesar, I did a flip on the half-pipe that really impressed the judges. Cesar: You impress me, TJ. You’re something else on that board!TJ: Ah, c'mon, stop it, will ya?Cesar: But I've seen you fly on a skateboard. It's amazing.TJ: Yeah, well, things have been goin'good. You'll never believe what the latest is. Cesar: What?TJ: Nike wants me to do a commercial. They've been calling my agent.Cesar: Wow! I don't believe that.TJ: You best believe it, my friend.

You know my friends are important.Cesar: Yeah, but now you’re hitting the big time.Everything’s gonna change.TJ: You know I’m just a regular gu y.Cesar: No, you’re not.TJ: Yes, I am.

And I worry about not having a girlfriend. See? I’m just like everybody else.Cesar: I don’t think so. Nobody else I know is doing a Nike commercial. You’re got it made, TJ.TJ: Yeah, but the problem is my parents.Cesar: What’s up?TJ: To really make it big , I’ve got to go on th e pro tour ,and the only way I can go pro is to drop out of school ,but they don’t want me to. They say I’m ruining my future. But I may not get another chance — two years from now may be too late. Cesar: So what’re you gonna for?TJ: I’ve got to go for it. I’m at the top of my game right now ,and that’s what counts.Cesar: Yeah, you gotta do what you gotta do.ScriptKara: Steve, remember the older couple that I rent my apartment from? Steve: Yeah?Kara: Well, the woman has been coming up to see how I'm doing. At first I was really appreciative, you know, it's nice to feel that people are concerned when you live alone.Steve: Yeah, it is nice.Kara: Now, though, she comes every day… sometimes more than once! She always brings me homemade soup…Steve: Homemade soup! That is so great! I wish someone cooked for me.Kara: Sure, having some home-cooked food is a treat, but she sits and watches me to make sure I eat it! Last time, I had just eaten dinner when she came over and insisted that I finish a whole bowl. She wouldn't leave until I did!Steve: Oh, c'mon, you could have it much worse.Kara: And, every time I go out she leans out the door to ask where I am going. It's like I'm 17 again!Steve: Would you rather have loud neighbors who kept you up all night? Kara: Well, it's not only her. It's the old man, too. He is such a flirt, and I've always thought it was cute. Ya' know, an old man ,80 years old , still flirting.Steve: Uh huh…Kara: So, today when I got home, he came up to me, gave me a hug…Steve: Yeah, so what…?Kara: And then, he kissed me on the cheek…!Steve: Oh no! Well, maybe you remind him of his granddaughter.Kara: Well, yeah, but don't you think it's kind of weird for him to kiss me? ScriptRachel: So, Susie, how was the plane ride from London?Susie: Oh, I don’t know…all I could think about was getting here and going shopping.Rachel: Hmmm.Susie: Rachel, what’s wrong?Rachel: Susie, I thought you came to see me! Isn’t that more important than shopping?Susie: Oh c’mon, Rachel. Shopping is so bonding!Rachel: All right, I’ll take you to the stores. What are you looking fly?Susie: Well, I want a handbag from Prada, and maybe one of their black leather dresses…Rachel: Oh no…Susie: …a couple of skirts from Donna Karan, you know, the ones that a re really fitted, a pair of jeans…Rachel: Whoa! How much money do you have, anyway?Susie: Oh, Rachel, you know I save up to come to New York every year to go shopping. Now that you’re studying here, I want to go with you. So what are you going to get?Ra chel: Are you kidding, Susie? I’ve got two words for you: “student budget.” I can’t afford to buy any clothing!Susie: Well, you’re just a jeans and T-shirt person, aren’t you? I am going to enjoy myself no matter how much it costs. I’m on holiday. Look, Rachel, I’ll buy you something, a new blouse , or skirt, whatever you want.Rachel: Well, I don’t want anyone to buy me something I can’t afford myself. Susie: Oh, don’t worry about that. And, there is no need to thank me. It’s the least I can do since you’ll be cooking dinner every night while I’m here. Rachel: Dinner? What are you talking about?ScriptRichard: Hello?Irma: Hi, it’s me.Richard: Oh, hi! How was the job interview?Irma: Well, he hired me.Richard: You got the job? The management job? Oh,I rma: No, I didn’t say I got the management job. He hired me for a job in customer service, selling hired me for a job in customer service, selling tours to Asia.Richard: Just customer service? But what about the management position? You were perfect for that job. You can supervise people. You understand the business. Irma: I know. I showed him my resume. I told him that I worked in travel management for five years back home, and that I even got a degree in Business Management here in the U.S.Richard: Oh, I can’t believe that. You’re perfectly qualified for that management position.Irma: That’s what I thought. It’s not fair! Why did I bother going to college here? Richard: Wait, wait a minute. Did he know that you were applying for the management position.Irma: Of course. And you know what he said?Richard: What?Irma: He said that everyone really expects the manager to be someone from the local community. But the person they hired is from New York. And she’s a woman, too, so it’s not because I am a woman. So that means the problem is my English.Richard: But your English is fantastic!Irma: But I’m not a native speaker, and I guess that’s what they want for the management job.Richard: Well, you know, you spend a little time at the customer service job and then you can work your way up to the management position…ScriptAmy: I know I have a picture of Luis around here some-where. Oh, here it is. Erika: wow! He’s so handsome! He looks like a Greek statue.Amy: Yeah, he is very attractive. But I didn’t think so when I first met him. Erika: You didn’t?Amy: No. You know what I noticed when I first met him? He has really hairy hands. Erika: What?Amy: Yeah. His hands are just really hairy. Plus, his clothes were way more fashionable than I usually like. He just wasn’t my type. And on top of all that, he was shorter than me.Erika: So how come you went out with him?Amy: Well, he was just really sweet and funny and I was so comfortable just hanging out with him. And the first time we went out he just swept me away with his personality.Erika: Really, how?Amy: He was just really easy to talk to.Erika: But still, if all those things bothered you, about his hands and all…Amy: well, you know, none of that was important once I got to know him more. His personality a nd the way we got along just made it clear to me that he is “the one.”Erika: So, when’s the big day?ScriptEddie: Hey, what’s up with you, Marty? You look kind of bummed out. Marty: You haven’t heard?Eddie: Heard what?Marty: Kristy and Shawna are moving in with us.Eddie: Yeah, I heard. Simon got transferred to Florida, right?Marty: Yeah, so he and Lily got to go there first and do a whole bunch of stuff. That means that we get stuck with the twin brats.Eddie: Ah, come on, Marty. They aren’t brats.Ma rty: Yeah, but you know what it’s going to mean? Mom and Dad aren’t going to have any time for us anymore. And it’s going to get even more crowded here. Just one big happy family!Eddie: Yeah, there’s a lot of us now, that’s for sure. I hear we’re going to have to sleep in the living room so that Kristy and Shawna can have our room. Marty: I wish we were back in our old house—just us, Mom and Dad.Eddie: Yeah, sometimes I do, too.Marty: And I wish Mom and Dad wouldn’t try to solve everybody’s problems. Edd ie: I don’t think that will change. You know your mom wants to take care of everybody. She doesn’t want to say no if anybody needs he.Marty: But nobody ever asks me what I want!Eddie: Kids never get to say what goes on in their house. That’s the way it i s. Marty: Yeah, you’re right. But now everything in this house is going to be Kristy and Shawna, Kristy and shawna. Or else Grandma.Eddie: Hey, don’t get mad at your grandma. She’s in a lot of pain, you know. Marty: I know. I’m not really mad at her. I’m mad at Mon and Dad. They used to always have time to help me with my homework, or play games with me, but they’re always too busy. And now it’s going to get even worse.Eddie: Hey, maybe I can help you with your homework. Bring it here.Marty: Really? You mean it? I’m really stuck on this math.Eddie: Sure. While things are kind of tough around here, I’ll help you out as much as I can.ScriptSteve: I can’t believe these people. I can’t believe what they do.Trish: Calm down, Steve. What are you talking about?Steve: Look at this. I just bought a donut. I’m so sick of the clerk wrapping each pastry individually, then taping the bags shut, then putting those bags in another bag, folding it down, and then taping that bag shut. I can’t take it anymore. It’s cr azy and it’s bad for the environment.Trish: How long have you been living here? Don’t you know that’s the way it is? Steve: I just want them to stick ‘em in a napkin for me , so I can eat while I’m walking to class.Trish: There you go again. Don’t you know it’s rude to eat while you walk? Steve: I’m so tired of this place. I don’t have time to sit down and eat. Peoplehere are too inflexible, and they have too many rules.Trish: Yeah, right, Steve, so you’re gonna convert everybody here to your way of doing things?Steve: Yeah, there has to be more individual freedom to do whatever you want. Trish: Why don't you just relax and go with the flow?Steve: Go with the flow? The whole system is a waste of my time. The clerks here should learn how to be more efficient, like in the U.S.Trish: What are you talking about? When I was in the U.S., the clerks were really rude. They just ignore you, and seem offended if you want anything. Don't you think it’s better this way?Steve: Are you kidding?Trish: Well, I kind of like it. It’s nice to relax and enjoy the moment while your packages are being wrapped. I like all of the traditions, and the care and attention that people give you, and the manners. To me, it’s a wonderful place to live. Steve: I think you’re nuts.Tr ish: You’re not gonna last long, mate.ScriptAndy: Hey, Bob. How are ya? Come and see what I’ve got.Bob: Is that another new computer?Andy: Yeah. Look how fast it is.Bob: Wow! I can’t believe it. And I thought your other computer was fast! Andy: It is fast, but this one’s like lightning.Bob: And the picture’s so clear.Andy: Mmm. Isn’t it? The color is pretty impressive, too, don’t you think? Bob: Yeah. You always have the latest, don’t you?Andy: You bet. This machine is right on the cutting edge of technology. You wouldn’t believe how much it can do. Apart from e-mail and free Internet service, I can watch TV on it while surfing. With this new desktop program, I can watch TV, e-mail, streamline videos, and scan artwork. And it’s not that expensive to upgrade, either. Uh, speaking of computers, how’s yours? Still like it?Bob: Yeah, it’s fine. Thanks!Andy: I know I gave you a good deal. It was only a year old. Still, are you sure it meets all your needs? Maybe you should think about upgrading.Bob: you know me – the only things tat I need a computer for are e-mail and word processing.Andy: Yeah, but does it give you room to expand? If you want to be able to do more two years from now, will your computer be able to handle it?Bob: Well I don’t know. But I kind of doubt that I’ll need a new one anytime soon.Andy: Yeah, but with computers, there’s always a new model coming out that can do so much more. If you don’t keep up with technology, you'll get left behind. Bob: well, what’s wrong with that?Doctor: Hi, Julie. How are you?Julie: Her, Dr. Cassidy. I’m actually fine. It’s just that I’ve been a little tired the last few days, and my stomach is kinda upset.Doctor: Well, that doesn’t surprise me. I have some news that you might find exciting. Y ou’re pregnant.Julie: No way!Doctor: Yes, you’re going to have a baby.Julie: Are you kidding me? Ah, I need a cigarette.Doctor: That’s the last thing you need. You need to stop smoking, and immediately.Julie: But I can’t stop smoking.Doctor: For your baby’s health, Julie, I’m afraid you have to.Julie: But smoking is the only way I can relax! It helps me when I’m stressed out. Doctor: Now, there are a number of things that are extremely important for pregnant mothers, and not smoking is only one of them. Another is to stop drinking alcohol. Do you drink?Julie: Well, I have a glass of wine with dinner, but I’m not an alcoholic. And I thought a little bit was supposed to be good for you anyway.Doctor: If you drink while you’re pregnant, your child coul d have birth defects. I cannot emphasize enough, Julie, the importance of quitting.Julie: Okay, then. What else is there?Doctor: Well, coffee.Julie: Do I have to give up everything I enjoy? I need coffee to wake me up in the morning.Doctor: I’m afraid,Julie, you’ll have to stop drinking that, too. Caffeine affects the baby’s heart rate. And, it’s also important to get regular exercise.Julie: You’re kidding! I have to quit smoking, stop drinking alcohol and coffee, and on top of all that, I have to start exercising? Boy, it is amazing that anybody ever gets pregnant.Doctor: I really hope you’ll take this seriously, Julie.ScriptSue: Randy, what’s going on in this picture? It looks like you have blood all over your shirt.Randy: No, that’s not blood. It’s ketchup.Sue: Ketchup? What happened?Randy: This happened when Tim and I were traveling around Asia. We were in Bangkok.Sue: Yeah…Randy: …and we had reservations to catch an overnight bus to Chiang Mai. Sue: Yeah.Randy: And we were waiting at a king of restaurant that was sort of a travel agency…and we went early, but the bus didn’t come, and I was getting kind ofSue: Yeah…but what’s that got to do with ketchup?Randy: So, I was beginning to wonder if we’d been cheated, because we’d already paid for our tickets in advance.Sue: Right.Randy: Then, finally, a van pulled up , and we thought, no , this is not the bus…but then everyone else who was waiting pushed right past us and jumped in , and, bam!—just like that, the van drove away. And then this sweet little Thai woman, who was the tickets, came up to us.Sue: Yeah, and …Randy: …and she said, “Why you no get on?” And Tim was like, “ That wasn’t the bus, was it?” “Only one, why you not get on?” And I didn’t know she was talking about…Sue: So what happened?Randy: Well, the travel agent jus shrugged and turned and went inside her shop. Neither of us could believe it. I started to get really angry , like we’d been cheated, and now it’s dark and we’re stranded in this little restaurant…Sue: Oh, no…Randy: I followed her inside, I started arguing. I told her, “We paid for the bus. You didn’t tell us to look for a van. Now you have to get us a taxi to Chiang Mai. Now.” And I started pointing at the clock. I think that was the last straw for t he woman, because she started shouting. “You no go. You no go Chiang Mai!” She grabbed a ketchup bottle off the table you know, one of those plastic squirt ketchup bottles, and she squirted ketchup at me!Sue: No! She didn’t!Randy: Yeah! She did. And then she threw the bottle at me. And Tim snapped the picture. Just then the same van pulled up and the woman said, “Now you go.”Sue: So you got on the van.Randy: Yeah, we ended up at the bus terminal, where this big, air-conditioned tour bus was waiting to go to Chiang Mai. And all the people who had pushed ahead of us earlier were there, waiting to leave. I felt SO stupid for getting angry at the woman and making such a fool of myself.Sue: You must have felt terrible.Randy: Yeah, I wished there was some way I could go back and apologize to her. I realized that I have to be more patient, especially when I’m in another country. ScriptEd: Are you worried about having enough money? Are you worried about paying your bills? Well, worry no more!Customer-1: I use d to watch every penny. But now I’m worth four million dollars, and it’s all thanks to Steven Crowe!Customer-2: I used to get headaches from worrying about money. I had a lot of credit-card debt, and my mortgage payments were killing me. Then I got Steven Crowe’s videos, and learned how to make real money.Ed: “Real money.” That’s the name of this 3-video set by Steven Crowe. Let Steven show you how to become financially independent buying and selling real estate.Steven Crowe: Hi! I’m Steven Crowe. I used to worry about money, too. I felt like a victim of the system. But then I found a way to make the system work—for me. Ed: What’s the trick, Steven?Steven Crowe: There’s no trick, Ed. It’s simple, once you understand how real estate really works. All you need to know is how to buy low and sell high. And that’s exactly what my videos teach you to do.Ed: And you can get really rich?Steven Crowe: Just ask some people who have “Real Money.”Customer-1: After I got the “Real Money” videos, I bought my first h ouse, following Steven’s simple rules. Six months later I sold it and bought two more houses. A year after that, I had enough money to quit my job. Now I have more money than I’ll ever need, and it’s such a great feeling.Steven Crowe: I want you to have that feeling, too. And you can.Ed: Call now to order “Real Money.” 1-800-289-7325. That’s1-800-BUY-REAL. Only three payments of $19.95 each, plus shipping and handling. All major credit cards welcome. Get it today, for a worry-free tomorrow! Results may vary.ScriptLori: Oh, good, you’re here. Another bad commute today?Carrie: Yeah, sorry, I’m late. The stupid train was late again, and I missed my connection, and…gosh, I’m tired already, and the day hasn’t even started. Lori: How long is your commute?Carrie: Almost an hour and a half, on a good day. Three hours of my life every day, five days a week, you know. I’ve got to wake up at six in the morning just to make it in to work by nine or so. I feel like a techno-self.Lori: that is long. I can walk here in 15 minutes. But you know, at least your commute is green. You can look at the trees and small towns…it must be nice. Carrie: For the first 20 minutes yeah. But as soon as the train gets closer to the city, it is all concrete and steel. That’s when it starts to get really crowded. Today so many people were in the train that I felt like a sardine in a big sardine can. Lori: Well, you could always move closer to the office.Carrie: But I love living in the country. The air is so fresh and clean, and I can have a bigger place and it’s safe and all that. I just wish I had more time to enjoy it. Sometimes it seems like my whole life is get up early/take the train/work all day/take the train home/go to bed, and then wale up and do it all over again. Lori: Wel l, can’t you find a way to make the trip more worthwhile?Carrie: Well, I read the newspaper and sometimes I bring a book, but I don’t really enjoy it.Lori: How about audiotapes or CDs? There’re novels or language learning tapes, relaxation tapes, relaxation tapes , all kinds of stuff on tape and CD.Carrie: Yeah, good idea, maybe I’ll look into it. Anything will be better than complaining about this commute all the time.Lori: Yeah, that’s for sure!ScriptAnna: Margaret, what’s the scariest thing that ev er happened to you? Margaret: The scariest thing? Surviving the San Jose earthquake.Anna: You were in the San Jose earthquake? Tell me what happened. Margaret: Well, I was living in an apartment downtown with my friend Julia. And we were still sleep on a Tuesday morning, and a little after six o’clock, there was this horrible sound and the floor was just bouncing and rolling like waves, all at the same time.Anna: Oh my gosh! What did you do?Margaret: well, it took a second or two to figure out what was going on—that it was an earthquake. Then I climbed out of bed and under the table, and I shouted at Julia to come, but she just pulled the covers over her head like it was a bad dream or something.Anna: Whoa!Margaret: It lasted 24 seconds, and then it stopped. And Julia and I could hear people talking outside, so we tried to go out the front door , but it was jammed shut. And then the first aftershock hit.Anna: That must have been horrifying!Margaret: Well, I remember that someone shouted, “Get out of there, quickly!” And we shouted back, “We can’t! The door won’t open.” So they said, “Well, come out the window.” But I called out, “it’s too high up,” because we were living on the second floor. “Not any more,” the person shouted back. So, we looked out the window and , sure enough, we were down on the ground! Anna: Your second floor apartment was on the ground?Margaret: We couldn’t believe it. We opened the window and crawled out, and somebody helped us over all this rubble. Once we were down safely, we turned around and looked back at our apartment building. The whole first floor was gone—it was just totally flattened. And then Julia looked at me and said, “Margaret. Mr. Sanchez!” He was this elderly man who lived on the first floor. Anna: Oh, no. How horrible!Margaret: Yeah. Julia and I both just burst into tears. He never had a chance. ScriptDr. Monroe: This is Dr. Ellen Monroe on Love Talk. This is the part of the show where we listen to our callers’ advice. Tonight we have Sunhee, a woman with a love problem. Sunhee, tell us about your problem.Sunhee: I’m from a Korean family, and I’m in love with a man from India that I met here in the U.S.Dr. Monroe: Okay, and…Sunhee: He’s asked me to marry him, and I said yes.Dr. Monroe: So what is the problem?Sunhee: It’s my parents. They’re very traditional, so I’m afraid of telling them that I’m engaged. I’m worried that they won’t let me marry him.Dr. Monroe: Hmm.Sunhee: I can’t go against my parents’ will, but this is the man I want to marry. Dr. Monroe: Hmm. That’s Sunhee’s problem, folks. Now, what’s your advice to her?Sunhee: Hello. What’s your advice for our worried friend?Carla: Hello. I’m Carla, from Canada, and I married a Chinese man five years ago. When I first told my parents I wanted to marry a foreigner with different religious beliefs, they were very angry. You see, they’re very traditional. They’ve always expected me to marry someone Canadian, from the same religious background. Dr. Monroe: Then what happened?Carla: For four years, they hardly talked to me, and they never came to visit us. it was like they disowned me…Dr. Monroe: Four years, you say. After four years something changed?Carla: Yes. When our little girl was born, I sent my parents a picture of her, and wrote, “Your granddaughter would like to see you.” A week later they called, and a month after that they came to see us – well, they came to see my daughter, any-way. Now they’re trying –they still aren’t comfortable with my husband, but they’re trying to understand him.Dr. Mo nroe: So, what’s your advice?Carla: Don’t give in to tradition. Marry the person you love. But have your first child soon –don’t wait four years like I did. That’s too long to be divided from your parents.Dr. Monroe: Sounds like good advice to me.ScriptSarah: You know, Richard, I really think we ought to fix up our apartment a little. Richard: What for? What’s wrong with it the way it is?Sarah: Are you kidding? It’s so empty.Richard: Come on. A room is just a room. Why do we have to fill it up with a bunch of junk? Besides, it costs money.Sarah: Well, it doesn’t have to be that expensive. I know this really neat little thrift store around the corner. We can go there and get a few simple things, just make it feel like a home.Richard: A few things? Oh, man, this is going to cost money.Sarah: it doesn’t have to cost a lot.Richard: Why can’t we just leave it the way it is? I like it. I feel comfortable here. You start putting a lot of nice things around and it’s going to be a museum. Sarah: But, Richa rd, we’re not the only ones that are going to be here. We want to have friends over, you know, have people over to study. They’ve got to have places to sit.Richard: Hey, that’s a good idea. We could get a couple of psychedelic postersand a lava lamp. Get a black light. Crank up the stereo. We could have cool parties here.Sarah: Parties, Richard? Richard, we are not going to have any time to party. We are going to be way too busy studying. That's what we’re in college for! Richard: College is about having parties about having friends over. I don’t want something that looks like my parents’ house.Sarah: Look. It doesn’t have to look like your parents’ house. We just need a few simple things like chairs. Maybe some plants you know, it’ll just make it nice and homey.Richard: Homey? Okay, I’m not looking for homey. I’m a college student. Sarah: At this rate, we’re never going to find anything that we both like. Richard: Yeah, well, at least we can agree on that.ScriptWhitney: Welcome to Life’s Concerns. I’m your host, Whitney Opal. Today our program is about dealing with loss. One of the hardest things in together. Mr. Clayton Hayes is here today to share his story. Thank you for joining us, Mr. Hayes.Clayton: Call me Clayton, please.Whitney: Okay, Clayton. I’d like to ask you a few questions about how you’re managing. Is that okay?Clayton: Yes, that’s fine. I can talk about it.Whitney: All right, well, your wife passed away two years ago – is that correct? Clayton: Yep. Maggie was 79, just about to turn 80 when she passed away. I never really expected her to go. She was still too young.Whitney: I’m sorry. Do you mind telling us how she died?Clayton: Cancer. She had it for about a year, but it seemed longer than that to me. And she was in so much pain at the end. Oh.Whitney: I’m really sorry. That must have been very difficult for you. Clayton: Yeah. At the end, there, you could tell she just wanted it to be over. She tried to keep up a cheerful face for me , but you can’t hide things from someone you’ve been married to for 56 years, you know.Whitney: I’m sure that’s true. You get to know someone pretty well in 56 years, don’t you?Clayton: Oh, you bet you do. You share so many years of your life with someone, and when they’re gone, oh, there’s a big hol e that no one can fill up. You just feel lonely. Very, very lonely.Whitney: I imagine you have some wonderful memories, as well.Clayton: Oh, yeah. We had a lot of good times, Maggie and me.

Didn‟t you think she was attractive？Luis: Well, she was so thin and athletic. I usually like a girl with a few curves. Bob: Then what made you decide to ask her out?Luis: I didn‟t. She ask me out！Bob: She did? And how did you feel you about that?Luis: I wasn‟t sure at first. But you know, I ended up really liking that part of her personality. She‟s independent and she goes after what she wants. And onceI started looking at her more, I really liked her physically.Bob: well, you two sure make a great couple!Unit 8Warm upModern Technology: Friend or Foe?Modern Technology has made our lives easier. But have we traded convenience for danger? Let‟s take a look at the dark side of technology .Hidden Expenses: Better save up some cash. Program developers are constantly changing their software, and you may need to pay to get newest updates. Getting ready to buy a new computer? You might find that the programs you already own are incompatible with your new system .Security: The internet has made shopping easy .but it is possible to steal online credit information. That‟s why insurance companies are offering identity theft polices. You also have to worry about virus that could damage your computer . Privacy: Many people couldn‟t live without e-mail. But most people could live without spam. Your inbox can get so clogged up with cyber junk mail that you spend all your time deleting it . And what about those “cute forwards” people send? They might seem funny to some people, but they‟re annoying to most.Mental health: computers are very entertaining, but have people become too attached? For some, the computer has become an obsession. Video games and online gambling are addictive activities that can make you a prisoner of your computer.Listening task1.A: You wouldn‟t believe what happened to me.B: What?A: Well, I got my credit card bill yesterday ,and I was looking it over ,and there all these charges for things didn‟t buy .There was a fur coat from some expensive website ,and , like ,fifty phone calls to Paris.B: Oh, no. Did someone steal your credit card?A: No, I still have the card, but someone must have gotten the number. Sometimes that‟s all you need to buy something over the phone or on the Internet.B : Wow ,that‟s scary .A: Yeah, but I called the credit card company. They have identity theft insurance, so they‟re going to give me a new card, a new number, and I don‟t have to pay for any of that stuff.2.A: How‟s that new computer working out, man？B: Well, hard to say. It‟s definitely a cool machine, top of the line. It‟s got way more memory than my old computer, and it is way faster. The thing is, none of my old software works in it.A: Really?B: Yeah, it‟s a new operating system, so nothing is compatible.A: Wow.B: So now I have to buy upgrades for all my programs, all the new versions of everything.A: That‟s goona be expensive.B: Yep, it‟s really lame.3.A: Hey, did you get the e-mail I sent you yesterday?B: I thing so. It was one of those joke forwards, right? One of the kind that are supposed to be funny.A: Yeah, it was a picture of an elephant playing baseball. Man, that was hilarious.B: Yeah, um, actually, I kind of wish you wouldn‟t send me all those forwards. I end up just deleting them anyhow.A: Oh, OK. I didn‟t realize.B: Sorry, but it's just that I get, like, fifty forwards a day, from you, my mum, my sister, my coworkers. My inbox is always so clogged up with forwards that sometimes I don‟t even get to read my real e-mails, important e-mails, you know.4.A: John, you‟ve been playing the video games for hours.B: I know, I know. It‟s just that I have to get to level five before I can take a break. A: Well, you‟ve been playing nonstop everyday like this for the past week.B: Yeah. This game is really addictive. But I promise I‟ll stop just as soon as I get into the secret room.A: The secret room?B: Yeah, but first I‟ve got to get a hold a golden key.A: John, listen to yourself! I think this game is messing with you head.Real World ListeningGreg: Hello, this is …Tech Trek,‟ and I am your host, Greg McFee. Today we‟re going ton review three video games that everyone‟s talking about. First, there‟s …the butcher.‟ The player is undercover cop who used to be a butcher. Image that. Super violent, super fast game. Next is …pirate party‟, which is based on last summer‟s hit movie about a band of pirates that attack cruise ships and beach resorts. Last is …Marooned on Mars‟, a video game that take place in 2250 in an abandoned colony on mars. The object of the game is to construct a spaceship to get back to earth. Ok, before we get to the reviews, we have a special guest on …Tech Trek‟-Jeff Townsend, developer of …the butcher ‟. Jeff, thanks for coming today.Jeff: My please, Greg.Greg: So, Jeff. “The butcher”. A lot of people are talking about your game, and most of them are saying it might too violent.Jeff: Well, it is violent. I mean, it‟s about a cop, who was once a butcher, who hunts down criminal.Greg: Right I‟ve played the game. A lot of people think that video game like …the butcher‟ actually causes violence, that they have bad influence on children.Jeff: Yeah, I hear that a lot. But I don‟t know. To me, video games are just entertainment. I think people can tell the different between the video game and real life.Greg: Even kids?Jeff: Even kids. I don‟t think everyone is going to play …the butcher‟ and then go out and make criminals into hamburger. You‟re not going to become more violent if you play …the butcher‟Greg: Maybe so, but …Jeff: In fact, I was reading the newspaper, and there are some scientists who think that playing violent video games can actually make you less violent.Greg: Hmm. That‟s interesting.Jeff: Yeah, they say if you get your anger and frustration out in video game, you‟ll be a lot more relaxed in your regular life.Greg: So if you were a really angry person, it might be a good idea to play …the butcher‟, right? You could hack up criminals for an hour, and then go on with the rest of your day in a peaceful, happy mood.Jeff: Exactly. Playing a video game might be better than meditating or seeing a psychiatrist, or anything like that.Greg: Anyway, thanks for joining us on …Tech Terk,‟ Jeff.Jeff : Any time.UNIT 9Warm Up1.Now that Krista is in college, she doesn‟t live at home.

大学体验英语听说3答案【篇一：大学体验英语综合教程3课后翻译答案课文翻译(免费版)】xt>（《意识》杂志的麦肯立博士就环境问题对几位专家进行采访。
）麦肯立博士：您认为目前环境面临的最大威胁是什么？塞姆基博士，您好。
您在研究过程中觉得哪些环境问题最为紧迫？大多数人对万物之间的相关性视而不见。
正因为如此，我们就不了解我们的所作所为会造成的后果。
现在我们每个人都应该睁开双眼，看清这个世界的真实面貌——一个因果相循的完整集合体。
塞姆基博士：我们认为最严重的两个环境问题是森林砍伐和全球变暖。
由于大量砍伐，现在地球上的树木仅有一万年前的一半。
毁掉树木也就破坏了生态环境，因为树木可以维持表层土壤，保证干旱气候地带的降雨量，净化地下水，并将二氧化碳转化为氧气。
树木把水从地下带到地面，并让水蒸发到大气中，随后这些蒸发气体又再化为雨水返回地面。
这对天然的干旱地区是至关重要的。
毁林地区的下风区域会因缺乏降雨来源而变为荒漠。
全球变暖的原因是燃烧石油等矿物燃料引起的，因为这会释放出温室气体进入大气。
二氧化碳和其它温室气体会聚积热量，最终造成全球气候变暖。
麦肯立博士：纳可森博士，谢谢您专程从澳大利亚远道赶来参加我们的访谈。
请您告诉《意识》杂志的读者怎样做才有助于解决环保问题。
麦肯立博士：对于环境的现状及未来，您最关心的是什么呢？麦肯立博士：德塞博士，很荣幸有这个难得的机会采访您。
能否请您与我们的读者交流一下您的高见，告诉我们环境危机会朝什么方向发展呢？麦肯立博士：在本次访谈结束之际，我要谢谢各位嘉宾的参与。
聆听了我们作为一个个体成员应该怎样做才有益于周围的环境，我感到受益匪浅。
希望这次访谈会激励《意识》杂志的读者去采取行动，制定自己的战略方针。
多数人都习惯袖手旁观，还说让专家们去处理这些问题吧！。
这种态度等于是在毁灭这个星球。
本次访谈的目的正是想说明个人采取行动有多么重要。
谢谢各位出谋划策指点迷津。

大学体验英语视听说教程3 home listening答案
MUST 3UNIT 1Task 2 Checking the Facts1. There are also some parts of the island that still reflect how it used to look before urban development took over.2. The macaques have grown accustomed to being fed, so they look to humans as a source of food.3. As the monkeys depend more on humans for food, they venture further from their natural habitat..4. These macaques are French species so they live on the edges of therainforests.5. After all, the macaques are essential to maintaining the rainforest’s ecosystem.Home ListeningA conservation group says 163 newly discovered species of plants and animals in the Greater Mekong region of Southeast Asia where the Mekong River 1) flows are atrisk of extinction because of rising global temperatures.Some of the most 2) unusual animals included a frog with fangs in Thailand that eats birds and a leopard-spotted gecko found on an island in Vietnam. But in a report3) released in Bangkok on Friday, the WWF says that temperatures in the region are4) expected to rise by as much as four degrees Celsius in the next 60 years and that could threaten their existence.The WWF says rare and endangered species are at the greatest 5 risk from climate change, because rising temperatures could affect food 6) supplies or cause weather problems that damage habitats. The newly discovered species that live at the tops of mountains only or low-lying islands only, like this Cat Ba gecko that was just found are 7) especially vulnerable to climate-change impacts because of their restricted habitats. More than 1,000 new species have been discovered in the GreaterMekong region in the past 8) decade.Changes to wildlife in the Mekong area could also affect many of the 60 million people who depend on the river for their livelihoods. Of all the region’s the WWF works in, the Mekong region 9) probably has the closest link between its resource and human livelihood than any other region in the world.The WWF report comes just days ahead of a major United Nations meeting inBangkok on climate change. The Bangkok meeting will 10) try to narrow down a framework agreementon global emission targets to be negotiated at the end of this yearUNIT 2①Task 2 Checking the Facts1. When it comes to intelligence, there has always been one fundamental question: Is intelligence a function of nature? Is it simply encoded in a child’s genes?2. If we take two identical twins, chances are that they will be as intelligentas each other3. If we put identical twins in different environments, we would find differences in their intelligence several years later, which indicates that . environment does play a crucial role in4. Investing in quality pre-school opportunities clearly helps give children from poverty-stricken areas the chance at a stronger start in school and in life.5. We will take a hard look at this compelling data and begin investing greater sums at the early childhood level.②Task 2 Checking the Facts1. In 1999, Time named Einstein as the person of the Century.2. Einstein hated the system of learning by heart and he said it destroyed learning and creativit y.3. What award did Einstein win in 1921?Answer: The Nobel Prize for PhysicsHome ListeningMost people know that Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who came up with the formula E=MC2. But do you know other facts about this 1) genius?When Einstein died in 1955, his body was cremated and his ashes 2) scattered according to his wishes. However, before his body was cremated, Thomas Harvey at Princeton Hospital 3) conductedan autopsy in which he removed Einstein’s brain.Rather than putting the brain back in the body, Harvey decided to keep it for study. Harvey did not have 4 permission to keep Einstein’s brain, but days later, he 5) convinced Einstein’s son that it would help science. Shortly thereafter, Harvey was fired from his position at Princeton because he refused to give up Einstein’s brain. For the next four 6) decades Harvey kept Einstein’s chopped-up brain in two mason jars with him as he moved around the country.Einstein’s mother, Pauline, was an 7) accomplished pianist and wanted her sonto love music too, so she started him on violin lessons when he was six years old.Unfortunately, at first, Einstein hated playing the violin. 8) He would much rather buildhouses of cards, which he was really good at, or do just about anything else.. When Einstein was 13 years old, he suddenly changed his mind about the violin when he heard the music of Mozart. 9) With a new passion for playing, Einstein continuedto play the violin until the last few years of his life..Part of Einstein’s charm was his disheveled look. In addition to his uncombed hair, one of Einstein’s peculiar habits was to never wear socks. 10) Whether it was while out sailingor at a formal dinner at the White House, Einstein went without socks everywhere.To Einstein, socks were a pain because they often would get holes in them. Plus, why wear both socks and shoes when one of them would do just fine?UNIT 3TASK2 Checking Facts1. Science fiction is another way to sensors the future.2. It’s a kind of writing that blends real science with fantasy.3. For instance, predict can show if someone is in your home and where theyare at all times.4. The stuff of cutting-edge scientific research today is tomorrow’s householdtechnology.5. And high-tech consumer products could be available in your future home.Home ListeningSome people don’t stop at imagining the future. They start building it. Thathappened when people wanted better ways to get around. They made 1) models of machines that would change the world. Or so they thought. Take the jetpack. It’s a backpack that carries a small rocket engine. You put it on, rev it up and soar. No need to ask for a ride to school or wait for the bus. But real life turnedout to be more 2) complicated—doesn’t it always?For starters, jetpacks couldn’t carry much fuel. So the 3) average trip was maybe half a minute. You can’t get very far in that time. Then there were problems with safety. Jetpack fuel can be dangerous stuff. It heats up to about 700°Celsius (1300°Fahrenheit). The roaring engine can also 4) damage your hearing.Of course, there are some 5) incredible problem solvers in this world. Someday, a clever 6) inventor may come up with a jetpack that truly takes off. It may be a while, though. So you’d better hold on to your bus pass.The dreamers of the 1950s also had ideas about how people mightcommunicate. One idea turned up in the “Dick Tracy”comic strip. Tracy was a tough, smart 7 detective He had a special way of staying in touch with people. On his wrist Tracy wore an 8) amazing watch. It had a telephone that he could use anywhere. Even better, it had a two-way television. This meant he could see people while he was talking to them.The two parts of Tracy’s watch —telephone and television —existed in the1950s. 9) Yet it took an artist to put them together in a new way–slowly, real life caught up with the comics. Today, people have cell phones. Some are even videophones. People also use webcams to see each other while they “talk”over theInternet. 10)As“Dick Tracy”exemplified, pieces of what was in the presentcan come together later in the future..UNIT 4TASK2 Checking Facts1.The scientists who launched the Human Genome Project believed in the power of genetic information to transform health care to allow earlier diagnosis of diseases than ever before possible.2. But it was also clear that genetic information could potentially be used in ways that are hurtful or unfair3. The goal was to _anticipate problems that might arise and to prompt solutions.4. But will we really want that information? How will it be used? Who will Have access to our genetic information?5. The challenge of addressing these issues is not reserved for scientists.Home ListeningWhat has science done for you lately? Plenty. If you think science doesn’t matter much to you, think again. Science affects us all, every day of the year, from the moment we wake up, all day long, and through the night.Because of science, we have 1) complex devices like cars, X-ray machines, computers, and phones. But the technologies that science has 2)inspired include more than just hi-tech machines. The notion of technology includes any sort of 3)designed innovation.. Whether a flu vaccine, the 4) antibiotics that treat your sore throat, the technique and tools to perform open 5) heart surgery, or a new system of crop rotation, it’s all technology. Even simple things that one might easily 6) take for granted are, in fact, science-based technologies: the clean water that comes from your faucet, and the light that you turn off at the end of the day, the plastic that makes up a sandwich bag, —it’s all here because of science. To make it clear how deeply science is 7) interwoven with our lives, just try imagining a day without scientific progress.8) Though the impact of technology on our lives is often clearly positive (e.g.,it’s hard to argue withthe benefits of being able to effectively mend a broken bone), in some cases the payoffs are 9) less clear-cut. It’s important to remember that 10) science builds knowledge about the world,, but that people decide how that knowledge should be used..UNIT 5TASK2 Checking FactsArts EducationBenefits Involvement in the arts is associated withgains in math, reading,cognitive ability, critical thinking, and verbalskill. Arts learning canalso improve motivation, concentrationconfidence, and teamwork .Status quo Comprehensive, innovative artsinitiatives are taking root in a growing numberof school districtsMany of these models are basedon new findings in brain research andcognitive development, andthey embrace a variety of approaches:using the arts as a learningtool, incorporating arts into other coreclasses and creating aschool environment rich in arts andculture.Arts education and education in general “We’re preparing kids for jobs. We’re preparing them to be citizens.And we’re teaching them to be human beings who can enjoy the deeper forms of beauty. The third is as important as the other two.”Home ListeningThe arts not only contribute richly to the development of human intelligence, but also offer the means to achieve a great diversity of characteristics in human beings in every school today. It would be easier to achieve 1) significant educational achievements if everyone learned in the same way, but not everyone does. In all schools today there is a growing diversity of students with different 2) cultural social, and economic backgrounds that result in very different ways of thinking, learning, and 3) behaving Children with different kinds of abilities and disabilities are in the same classrooms. Children from 4) disadvantaged families learn together with more economically privileged students. School systems that rely on teaching 5) primarily through the spoken and written words simply do not reach all these kinds of students. Even students with similar backgrounds 6) perceive and process information differently.We have known for a long time that there are major perceptual differences in how people take in information. Some students can learn 7) effectively by listeningand they do very well in traditional classrooms where most of the information is presented 8) orally Studies show that these students whose strongest learning channel is auditory comprise less than 15% of the population. On the other hand,9) students who demonstrate a visual learning style are about 40% of the population. It is important for them to have illustrations, charts, and diagrams along with words and numbers. Understandably, many of them have difficulty learning in conventional classrooms since very little hands-on learning is available in most classes after early primary grades. The arts offer especially valuable tools to facilitate learning for those who are primarily visual, in addition to making it possible for all students to learn more effectively, 10) retain what they have learned,know how to apply what they have learned in a variety of situations and feel more positive about learning.UNIT 6Task 2 Checking the Facts1. A solution may be at hand for holidaymakers who are finding it harder to get off the beaten track2. For those who really want to get away from it all,a new holiday destination has sprung up —Antarctica.3. However, this new hotspot, or freezing zone, might only be for those with the deepest pockets if a new policy gets under way.4. The growing numbers are having a negative effect on the pristine environment of the South Pole. To combat this, researchers from Holland’s Maastricht University have come up with a possible solution_.5. The Maastricht University team’s proposal to auction off a fixed number of tourist places_ seems a workable solution.Home ListeningWith nearly 1 billion tourists crisscrossing the globe every year, it’s more important than ever for travelers to minimize their individual 1)impact on the earth’s natural and cultural treasures. The 2)potential negative effects of tourism are both local and global; oceanfront hotels 3) contributeto beach erosion in Hawaii, rising numbers of visitors 4) threaten the fragile ecosystems of the Galapagos Islands, and carbon dioxide 5)emissions from planes are a growing contributor to global warming.Taking a green approach to travel is an easy and 6) essential way to protect the places you love to visit, not just for yourself but for the travelers who come after you and for the people who will continue to live there long after you’ve flown home. As an added bonus, it often makes for a more rewarding, 7) authentic travel experience, encouraging deeper 8)connections with the peopleand places you visit.Contrary to popular belief, you don’t necessarily have to pay more in order to travel green. You can 9) f ind green lodging options in all budgets from hostels to luxury hotels. And Earth-friendly transportation options like biking, walking and taking public transit are often cheaper than taking a cab or renting a car. Also, you don’t need to sacrifice creature comforts or go off into the middle of nowhere to be a green traveler; you can visit big cities or small villages, and stay in small ecolodges or luxury hotels. All that’s required is 10)an effort to preserve and protect the natural and cultural environment of the place you’re visiting, which means conserving plants, wildlife and other resources; respecting local cultures and ways of life; and contributing positively to local communities. It’s easier than you might think.UNIT 7①Task 2 Checking the Facts1.Gaming addiction _is not yet officially recognized as a disorder by the American Medical Association.2. It’s not surprising that some teens would rather play the latest video game than friends, play sports or even watch television.3. Studies estimate that 10 percent to 15 percent of gamers exhibit signs that hang out with the Health Organization’s addiction.1.What symptoms may prove you’ve been addicted to the Internet?Answer: Internet addicts\1)lose track of time and less time on meals;2)sneak online when unnoticed.2. What severe consequences does Internet addiction cause?Answer: 1) Internet addiction has devastating effects on people’s fhealth and social lives2) Adults may lose the most important years _for their career development3) Students waste too much of their youth.3. Why is Internet addiction so prominent in China?Answer: 1) Many youths are _only child in their families;2) The lack of _activities can lead to Internet addiction.Home ListeningResearch studies show that only 10–15% of gamers meet the criteria for addiction. Heavy game use is 1)defined by the American Medical Association as playing for more than two hours per day, yet2estimates of the amount of time gamers spend playing video games vary from 6 to 12 hours per week. In fact, reports typically suggest that gamers spend about a quarter of their 3)leisure time playing video games.Considering this, it is easy to be 4) confused about whether your or someone else’s gaming falls in the average or heavy ranges.As with all addictions, it is important when considering the possibility of a video game addiction not simply to consider the amount of time spent gaming, but also the 5) function t is serving the individual. Video game playing, as one of a range of 6) recreational activities, may not be harmful or indicate an addiction. On the other hand, when game playing is addictive, it takes over as the person’s main way of coping with life, with other important areas of life being 7)neglected or disrupted as a result. Video game addiction or video game overuse is seen most 8commonly in players of the ersistent multiplayer gaming universe, or Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) , who make up 9.1% of gamers. These games 9)hold many attractions for gamers –they are interactive, social, competitive andhappen in real time. Research indicates that MMORPG players tend to be lonely, socially marginalized people who have difficulty with real life social interactions. They may feel that 10) they have a more positive social experience and more control in virtual relationships than they do in the real world.;UNIT 8Task 2 Checking the FactsFunction To enable a country to _invest in infrastructure or programs that support economic growth and development.Sources 1.Domestic financial resources: taxes and borrowing2. Foreign financial resources: donation from other countries; commitment to increasing the amount of money they give in aid by $50 billion by 2010Usage 1. Aid should not be tied to the purchase of goods and services from donor countries.2. Making aid more effective is a responsibility shared by donor and recipient countriesHome ListeningThe United Nations is trying to formulate a single global action plan to fight the spread of poverty worldwide. Ambassador Francesco Paolo Fulci of Italy, president of the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), says there have been far too many UN conferences and declarations since 1990 and, what is needed now, is “more 1)concrete action and less talking”. He said that “too large a share of 2)resources for development is wasted on studies, administrative costs, general 3) expenses and field trips.”Fulci says that proposals made at nine major UN conferences —since the firstChildren’s Summit in New York in 1990 —will be “distilled”into a single 4)action-oriented plan aimed at eradicating poverty. He expects the world’s finance ministers —and all UN 5)agency heads —to be 6)present at an ECOSOC meeting in Geneva early July to adopt a “Geneva Declaration”against poverty.“We will be sending a strong message from Geneva on what immediate stepsgovernments and civil society should take to fight poverty,”he says.The Italian nvoy )seeking commitments from the 185 member states as well as from the heads of UN bodies, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) —to help implement the plan. Fulci says there has to be a firm commitment to ncrease development aid, which has been on the decline, and a 8) pledge to write off the growing foreign debts of the world’s poorest nations.“How can one eradicate poverty when some of the world’s poor nations, specifically in Africa, 9) have to spend more than 60% of their export earnings on interest payments?”He asks. “These are debts that will never be paid off. So let’s start a new era.”According to the United Nations and the World Bank, more than 1 billion to 1.3billion people live in poverty, mostly on a daily income of less than a dollar a day.10) On the other hand, the total external debt of developing nations has reached more than two trillion dollars.。
