Knowing how to fill in a form is a skill we must learn. Before filling in a form it is important to find out what kind of information is required and where to write the relevant details.Now listen to the tape and then complete the student information card and the hotel reservation form below.ScriptBetty Li graduated from No.3 Girls High School in Shanghai in the summer of 2008. She enrolled in the Department of Chinese at Northwest University on August 31st, 2008. Betty lives on campus. She lives in Room 420 of No.1 Residence Hall for students. Her phone number is 52167739.Betty was born on August 19th, 1990. She is interested in writing, painting and music. She hopes to become a writer when she finishes college.Part BListening TasksScriptRadio and TVThe most obvious difference between radio and television is that you listen and look at the television, but just listen to the radio. In this way, radio is more imaginative because it forces you to form pictures in your own mind rather than providing you with visual information, which is what television does.In addition, radio is more flexible than television, since you don't have to be in the same room as the radio set in order to listen to the programs, but you do have to be in the same room as a television in order to watch it.A radio is also far more portable than a television. You can listen to the radio while driving in the car, jogging or even just walking around. Although portable televisions do exist, you can't really watch one while you are jogging, for example.One of the main advantages of radio, however, is that it offers the listener more immediate access to information. Most radio stations broadcast news reports at regular half-hour or hourly intervals, but television news is only broadcast a few times each day. Also, the variety of topics you get on the radio is much greater than that on television.Radio is more personal than television. Many radio programs are interactive in a way that television can never be. Listeners can call the radio station they are listening to and express their thoughts and opinions live on air. You can't ring up a television station and express your opinions, can you?Language and Culture Notes1.Background information From its appearance at the beginning of the 20th century, radio had been a major provider of news and entertainment until television came into being. The early models of the modern television appeared in the 1920s but its popularity did not begin until after World War II, especially until after color TV became available in the 1960s. Today TV sets are much more sophisticated. Not only are they attached with remote control, but they can be hooked to VCR, VCD, DVD and even to the Internet. So it is not surprising that more and more people now watch TV to get news, sports, and a great variety of entertainment. Yet television cannot completely replace radio. Many people still like radio because of its compactness in size. Radio also survives as a major part of a tape recorder, a hi-fi and a necessary component of a car. To adapt to the invention of TV, radio has also made great changes in its system, and in the way it presents programs. The stereo system, for example, is successful in winning music lovers to radio programs.2. portable television A television set about 3" in size and can easily be carried or moved3. at regular half-hour or hourly intervals(the program is broadcast on the radio) every half hour or every hour4. Many radio programs are interactive …Program hosts or hostesses can get immediate feedback from their listeners and they can discuss a topic on the air. With TV, however, audience interaction is more difficult. The usual way is to send out a TV crew to bring in live coverage of people's response to some event.5.live on air Listeners' thoughts or opinions can be heard on the radio at the moment they are spoken rather than later on a recording.Exercise 1: Listening for general understandingListen to the recording once and choose the right answers to the questions you hear.1. What is the passage mainly about?a. The advantages of radio over television.b. The difference between radio and television.c. The changes made to radio programs.d.

The invention of television has had a great impact on radio.c. Radio definitely has a larger audience than television does.d. Radio will not easily be replaced by television.Exercise 2: Listening for detailsListen to the recording once again and fill in the chart with the missing information.Part CAdditional ListeningA Passage The Benson Family’s DecisionA. Listen to the passage and answer the following question.What’s the main idea o f the passage?Without watching TV, people may find many interesting things to do.B. Listen to the passage again and choose the best answers.What has each member of the Benson Family found time doing in the past year?1. Mr. Benson a. playing the pianob. playing tennisc. working in the cinemad. writing a novel2. Mrs. Benson a. taking up judob. seeing films and playsc. writing a dramad. joining a film society3. Daughter Emily a. taking up actingb. reading ten novelsc. learning to play the pianod. solving math problems4. Son Mark a. reading novels and other booksb. playing tennisc. joining a societyd. going to tennis classesScriptThe Benson Family’s Decis ionHave you ever spent a year without television? A year ago the Benson family decided that they were spending too much time in front of the box. So they got rid of it. And they have beenliving without a television for almost a year now. How have they been spending their free time then?“We found it very hard for the first few weeks,” says Mrs. Benson. “We didn’t know what to do with our free time. But since then it’s been fine. We’ve done so many things that we hadn’t done for such a long time. Last year, for example, we didn’t go out to the cinema or the theatre once, but this year we’ve seen at least a dozen films and plays. And I’ve even joined the local drama society.Mr. Benson has taken up tennis. Daughter Emily has been learning to play the piano and son Mark has been going to judo (柔道) classes. And they’ve all read more books. Mark said, “This year I’ve read about ten novels and five or six other books, too.”So haven’t they missed the box at all? Emily says she has had a few problems: “I don’t like it when I go to school and all th e kids are talking about a program that they’ve seen. Actually, I’ve just been watching a program at my friend’s house.”Nevertheless, according to Mr. Benson, “We’ve all started doing so many interesting things that we wouldn’t have time to watch TV now.”Part DTest Your ListeningA Compound DictationListen to the passage three times and supply the missing information.There are different 1) types of media today. News and 2) entertainmentare communicated to us in a number of different ways, using different media. It may be 3) print media such as newspapers and magazines, or 4) electronic media such as radio and television. The word media is most often used to refer to the communication of news, and in this 5) context means the same as news media.Programs on radio and television may be referred to formally as 6) broadcasts or informally as shows, especially in American English. The person who 7) presents a program or a show on radio or TV is a host or hostess but the one who hosts a popular music program is called a disk jockey or DJ. 8) News programs may be hosted by an anchor, either a man or a woman, who is sometimes more famous than the people in the news. In more traditional news programs, the news is read by a newsreader.There are many broadcasting organizations in a country and competition among them is serious. 9) Most TV and radio networks want to increase the size of their audience, or their ratings. Good ratings are especially important during prime-time, the time of day when most people watch TV. This is not surprising as high audience figures attract more advertising or commercials to be shown in commercial breaks between programs. And 10) the broadcasting organization that can attract most advertising makes most money.。

About three months ago, my grandfather came up to London to visit us. The first Sunday morning after he arrived, my youngest son said he wanted to go to the park.“We’ll do better than that,” said my grandfather, “we’ll go and feed the pigeons in Trafalgar Square.” So off they went.

Lesson ElevenSection One: News in BriefTapescript1. Texas Air announced today that it will buy the troubled People Express Airlines for about a hundred and twenty-five million dollars. The proposed deal would allow most People Express employees to keep their jobs, although the company will eventually lose its identity and become part of Texas Air. Federal officials must approve the merger. Texas Air is also trying to buy Eastern Airlines.2. A rally on Wall Street today after six consecutive losing sessions, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the day up nearly nine points, to close at seventeen sixty-seven point fifty-eight.3. What's being called a 'freedom flight" of seventy former Cuban political prisoners landed in Miami today to an ecstatic reception by thousands of relatives and well-wishers. The plane also carried forty one relatives of former prisoners. The flight culminated nearly two years of negotiations with the Castro regime.Section Two: News in DetailTapescriptTexas Air Corporation today announced that it has agreed to buy People Express Airlines for one hundred twenty-five million dollars in securities. Texas Air already owns Continental Airlines and New York Air. It is in the process of acquiring Eastern Airlines. People Express, one of the first no-frills, low-fare air carriers, has been in financial trouble lately. It was forced to shut down its subsidiary, Frontier Air flights. Texas Air now says it will acquire Frontier's assets as part of its deal with People Express. Joining us now from New York, NPR's business reporter Barbara Mantel.' Barbara, it is said this is a very attractive low price, this one hundred twenty-five million dollars in securities. Besides that, why does Texas Air want People Express?' "Well, Frank Lorenzo, who is Chairman of Texas Air, will get airplanes from People Express, which he might need. He will get the lowest cost work-force in the industry at People Express. He will get a new terminal at Newark, New Jersey that People Express is building. He'll get flights to London, and he will get control over competition. People Express competes heavily, especially in the northeast corridor, with Texas Air.''This issue of competition has been a sticking point before for the Department of Transportation when two airlines wanted to get together. How will Texas Air get around it this time?''Well, they might not. Texas Air wanted to acquire East ..., or wants to acquire, Eastern Airline, and the Department of Transportation said, 'No, not unless you sell more landing slots, more slots in the northeast corridor to Pan Am so that we'll have some competition there.' And Texas Air agreed to that just last week. That may happen again here. The Department of Transportation may require that Texas Air sell some slots or some gates to another airline to ensure that there is still competition in the northeast part of the marketplace. But Texas Air has some leverage here with the Department of Transportation because People Express is a failing company. And the Department of Transportation may feel, 'Well, we'll let them buy PeopleExpress and keep it running, rather than let it fail and lose all those jobs.'"'Mm hm. Now, if the deal is approved by the Department of Transportation, what is it likely to mean for consumers? If there's less competition the fares could possibly go up. "'Well, yes. You would think that when you move from two competitors in a market to just one airliner that prices would just have to go up. But I want you to keep in mind that unrestricted fares of the kind People Express offered, you know, wholesale unrestricted fares, were being eliminated and phased out anyway, because they were not profitable. And the Department of Transportation theory here is that if you allow mergers to take place, or many mergers to take place, you might create more efficiencies and low costs, leading possibly to lower fares. And also the Department of Transportation believes that there's a lot of potential competition in the marketplace. Airlines can move planes around and buy gates, and so that if an airline in a particular market segment was making a lot of money and raising prices excessively, other airlines would move in and prices would be brought down through competition. So that it's a nice theory, the theory of potential competition keeping prices in line, but it's sort of a new idea and it's not clear that that's really the way it would work.''Thanks.' From New York, NPR's Barbara Mantel.Section Three: Special ReportTapescript"My audiences have been very devoted over the years throughout the country. And they've expanded and grown and the country audience has been just as kind and as supportive as the folk audience has been.''I was thinking though, nonetheless, when I put on this album, 'The Last of the True Believers,' especially the title cut, that I heard more country there than I'd perhaps heard before.""Well, I guess it has .-.. I've moved in that direction, mainly because I am playing with the band more. My natural roots are there in country and hillbilly music. And so I think that that just comes out more when you put the band with it."I'I want to ask you some questions, please, about this album, about the ... not so much what's on the inside right now, but what‟s on the outside - a picture on the front of you in front of a Woolworth store, someplace, I guess, in Texas or Tennessee, and 'Houston, Texas.' In Houston, Texas? Is it the Woolworth store that has the hardwood floor still 'and the parakeets in the back and that sort of thing?'"Well, this one that we shot this in front of in Houston Texas is one of the largest ones in the country. It's a two-storey and it's got the escalator that does a little pinging noise every couple of minutes. And it takes up a whole city block.""But, why a cover photo in front of Woolworth's?''Well,, that comes from the song 'Love at the Five and Dime,' which was a song that Cathy Mattea also cut this year and had my first, you know, top five country hit with. And it deals with the Woolworth store.'"There is, on the cover, you are holding a book, and you can‟t really see. ... What is the name of the book on the cover you're holding?''In the Kindness of Strangers, the latest Tennessee Williams' biography.''And on the back is Larry McMurtrie's book about a cattle drive around the turn of the century, Lonesome Dove.'"He's my main prose hero.''Now, why? Why would you do that? Why would you pose with a book?'"Well, I have, my audience consists of a lot of young people between the ages of, maybe you know, fourteen and twenty-f'ive. And I read a lot, and I also write short stories and have written a novel. And I just feel like young people are missing out because they don't read books. And any time I have the opportunity to influence the young person to pick up a book and read it, I would try to do that.''When you hear these lyrics, when the words come to you, are you hearing the stanzas as poetry or as music?''Well, I'm hearing them as music. Lyrics usually come to me, and songs come to me as a total picture. And the music and the lyrics come at the same time. Sometimes they shoot me straight up in bed, you know, in the middle of the night. 'The Wing and the Wheel' is a very special song to me. It's probably my favorite song that I've ever written. And that song was inspired at the Vancouver Folk Festival by two people who are from Managua, Nicaragua. They have a duo call Duo Guar Buranco. And just about four o'clock in the morning, I was sitting in my hotel room and listening to them sing in the room next door, and looking out the window at this little fingernail moon hanging out over the Vancouver Bay, and that song just came flowing, you know, and was inspired by those two people.''Now, that sounds easy.''Well, it IS easy. If you listen. to yourself and you listen to the inspiration that's bringing on that particular song, it's easy. It's just a matter of getting up and writing it down.' Nancy Griffith, talking with us in WPLN in Nashville. She is continuing her national tour with the Everly Brothers. Her latest album is called "The Last of the True Believers.'Lesson 12Section One: News in Brief1. American reporter Nicholas Daniloff is in Frankfurt, West Germany, on his way home from Moscow after being detained for a month on espionage charges. President Reagan in Kansas City on a campaign swing announced Daniloff‟s release, denying that any trade had been agreed to in order to win his freedom. Asked by reporters if he blinked in staring down Soviet leader Gorbachev over the Daniloff affair, the President said they blinked. The agreement to release Daniloff came after a three-hour meeting last night in New York between Secretary of State George Shultz and Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze. No details of the agreement have been released, and it is not known if Daniloff‟s freedom is the first step in a trade involving accused Soviet spy Gennadi Zakharov. When he arrived in Frankfurt, Daniloff thanked President Reagan, Secretary of State Shultz, and other US officials for “dotting all the i‟s and crossing the t‟s” that permitted him to be in Frankfurt tonight.2. The House of Representatives is expected to vote soon to override President Reagan‟s veto of a bill imposing economic sanctions against South Africa. NPR‟s Cokie Roberts reports that the President has promised to expand economic sanctions on his own in hopes of getting Congress tosustain his veto. “Both houses of Congress passed the economic sanctions against South Africa by wide enough margins to override a presidential veto. And it‟s expected the House will easily garner the two-thirds vote necessary for override. So it‟s in the Senate the President is concentrating his efforts. Today President Reagan sent a long letter to majority leader Robert Dole, restating his opposition to …punitive sanctions that harm the victims of apartheid. ‟ The letter went on to outline an executive order the President plans to sign which would impose some but not all of the sanctions passed by Congress. For example, there‟d be a ban on some new investments in South Africa, but not as many as called for by Congress. The President hopes the executive order will win over the fourteen additional senators he needs to sustain his veto. The Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee said today that Congress would simply come back next year with tougher sanctions if the veto is sustained. I‟m Cokie Roberts at the Capitol”Section Two: News in DetailAmerican reporter Nicholas Daniloff was freed today in Moscow. He flew into Frankfurt, West Germany this afternoon and spoke with reporters gathered at the airport.“It‟s wonderful to be back in the West. I think it‟s obvious to everybody what has happened over this last month. I was arrested without an arrest warrant. A case was fabricated against me with a narrow political purpose of giving the Soviet Union some political leverage over the case of Gennadi Zakharov in New York. The KGB did not punish me; the KGB punished itself. I cannot tell you anything about any other arrangements. All I know is that I am free in the West, very grateful, delighted to see you.” Nicholas Daniloff.When Daniloff left the Soviet Union today he had been detained there for thirty-one days, facing a possible trial on espionage charges. Daniloff left Moscow only hours after Secretary of State Shultz and Soviet Foreign Minister Shevardnadze met last night in New York in the latest of four negotiating sessions concerning the fate the American journalist. But so far no details have emerged about the arrangements that brought Daniloff his freedom. NPR‟s Mike Shuster has more from New York.Reporters in Moscow who had been staking out the American Embassy there first got wind this morning that Daniloff might be released, after he left the Embassy in a car and flashed the “V for Victory” sign. Apparently Daniloff was simply informed that he could leave, and his passport was returned to him. He was then taken to the airport along with his wife, and soon thereafter boarded a Lufthansa flight to Frankfurt, West Germany. The official American announcement of his release came from President Reagan mid-day today as he was campaigning in Kansas City, Missouri:“I have something of a news announcement I would like to make, that in case you have‟nt heard it already, that at twelve o‟clock, twelve o‟clock Central time, a Lufthansa Airliner, left Moscow bound for Frankfurt West Germany, and on board are Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Daniloff!”So far though neither the White House nor the State Department has said anything about the specific agreements that ended the negotiations on Daniloff, and lacking any fuller explanation from the government, many questions remain. First, what will happen to the Russian scientist Gennadi Zakharov whose arrest last month in New York for spying led to Daniloff‟s detention? No date has been set for Zakharov‟s trial in Brooklyn, and a representative of the Justice Department in Brooklyn said today the US attorney there was waiting for instructions on the handling of Zakharov‟s case. There have been suggestions that Zakharov might be returned to the Soviet Union at a later date in exchange for one or more jailed Soviet dissidents. There is also thequestion of the American decision to expel twenty-five Soviet personnel from their Unite Nations Mission here. Several have already left New York and the deadline for the expulsion of the rest is Wednesday. The Soviets have threatened to retaliate if the order is not rescinded. There is no word whether the agreement that freed Daniloff includes anything on the twenty-five Soviets, which naturally leads to the final question: Has Daniloff‟s release today brought the United States and the Soviet Union any closer to a summit meeting? Secretary Shultz has said that a summit could not take place without Daniloff gaining his freedom. That has now been removed as an impediment to a summit, but the Soviets have called the Zakharov case and the matter of the twenty-five Soviets diplomats obstacles to a summit as well. Until the details are made public of the agreement Shultz and Shevardnadze worked out, it will not be known what the prospects for a summit truly are. This is Mike Shuster in New York.Section Three: Special ReportOne year ago this month, a powerful earthquake in Mexico City killed more than nine thousand people. Tens of thousands of people lost their jobs because of the massive damage. Among those hardest hit by the quake were women garment workers. Who worked in sweatshops concentrated in the heart of Mexico City. One year after the earthquake, Lucie Conger reports that some of the forty thousand seamstresses who lost their jobs are changing their attitudes about work.Lesson ThirteenSection One: News in BriefTape-script1. A special committee of twelve senators today began the impeachment trial of Federal Judge Harry Claiborne. It's the first such proceeding in fifteen years. Claiborne is serving a jail sentence for tax evasion.2. President Reagan today continued his campaign for a drug-free America. He ordered mandatory testing for federal workers in sensitive positions. And he also sent Congress a legislative package that would increase federal anti-drug spending by nine hundred million dollars, much of that on increased border patrols. The President said the legislation is the federal government's way of just saying no to drugs. "We're getting tough on drugs; we mean business. To those who are thinking of using drugs, we say 'Stop.' And to those who are pushing drugs, we say 'Beware.' " Mandatory drug testing for some federal workers is the most controversial part of the President's plan. It's been condemned by some employee groups.3. One person was killed and more than fifty injured today in Paris when a bomb exploded at the drivers' permit office at police headquarters. It was the fourth blast in seven days in the French capital.Section Two: News in DetailTapescriptIn Paris today, one person was killed and more than fifty were injured when a bomb exploded at police headquarters. This is the fourth attack on a crowded public target in a week.A police officer was killed yesterday while removing a bomb from a restaurant on the Avenue Champs Elysee. Minutes after that incident, Prime Minister Jacques Chirac announced new security measures aimed at curbing terrorist activities in, France. Melodie Walker reports from Paris.A group calling itself 'the Committee for Solidarity with Arab and Middle-Eastern Prisoners' has claimed responsibility for the current series of bombings in Paris, in addition to ten other attacks in the French capital over the past year. The Committee has delivered messages to news agencies in Beirut threatening to continue its bombing campaign in Paris until the French government agrees to release three men jailed in France on charges of terrorism. One of the convicted prisoners, George Abraham Abdullah, is believed to be the leader of the Lebanese Army Faction suspected of killing a US military attached in Paris in 1982. The French government has officially declared it will not release the prisoners. In response to the repeated attacks in Paris, Prime Minister Chirac last night announced new anti-terrorist measures: military patrols along the French borders will be increased and, beginning today, all foreigners will require a visa to enter France. Citizens of European Common Market countries and Switzerland will be exempt from the visa requirement. But Americans planning to visit France will need to apply for visas at the nearest French consulate. For an initial period of fifteen days, however, emergency visas will be granted at French airports and other border checkpoints. France has been plagued with terrorism at home and abroad in recent years. In the past two weeks, three French members of the United Nations peace keeping force in Lebanon have been killed by remote-controlled bombs. Today, France, called for an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to discuss the role and safety of the force. Seven French hostages in Beirut are also a major concern for the Chirac government. Dominique Moazi, Associate Director of the French Institute for International Relations, says the bombings in Paris, the attacks on the UN troops, and the hostage situation are all indirectly related. 'I think there is a global goal, which is looked after, and that is to punish France for its involvement in Middle-Eastern affairs, either Lebanon or the war between Iran and Iraq. And France is, at the same time, more visible than any other European actors, in Lebanon and in the Gulf.' According to Moazi, the long French tradition of granting political asylum has made France more open and accessible to terrorist activities."In the past we have given, unfortunately, the impression, which was maybe a reality, of being less resolute in our treatment of terrorist action than, for example, the Israelis. So that combination of visibility, vulnerability, and lack of resolution has made us the ideal target of terrorists now.'In a statement released today, President Francois Mitterand said, ' The fight against terrorism is the business of the entire nation.' But despite the government's determination to combat terrorism, the question of how to do it remains unanswered.For National Public Radio, this is Melodie Walker in Paris.Section Three: Special ReportTapescriptThe United States Senate Intelligence Committee today released a report calling for sweeping changes in US security policies and counter-intelligence, its first unclassified assessmentof recent spy cases. The Committee says the damage done has cost billions of dollars, threatening America's security, as never before. NPR's David Malthus has the story. The report states that the damage done from espionage and lax security is worse than anyone in the government has yet acknowledged publicly. It concludes that US military plans and capabilities have been seriously compromised, intelligence operations gravely impaired. US technological advantages have been overcome in some areas because of spying. And diplomatic secrets were exposed to adversaries. V ermont Democrat Patrick Leahy is Vice-Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.'The national security is many times threatened more by this than by the buildup of Soviet arms, or the buildup of Soviet personnel, or breakthrough in weapon development." The Committee report says foreign intelligence services have penetrated some of the most vital parts of US defense, intelligence, and foreign policy structures. The report cites a string of recent cases, including the Walker-Whitworth spy ring, which gave the Soviets the ability to decode at least a million military communications.Despite some improvements by the Reagan Administration in security and tough talk over the last two years, the report also concludes that the administration has failed to follow through with enough specific steps to tighten security, and that its counter-intelligence programs have lacked the needed resources to be effective. Republican Dave Durenberger of Minnesota, Chairman of the Intelligence Committee, sums up the current situation this way:'Too many secrets, too much access to secrets, too many spies, too little accountability for securing our national secrets, and too little effort given to combating the very real threat which spies represent to our national security.'Senator Durenberger said the Committee found some progress has been made in toughening up security clearances for personnel, and some additional resources have been devoted to countering technical espionage, but he said much more needs to be done and he described the current security system as one 'paralyzed by bureaucratic inertia.' The Committee makes ninety-five specific recommendations, including greater emphasis on re-investigations of cleared personnel, a streamlined classification system, more money for counter-intelligence elements of the FBI, CIA and the military services, and tighter controls on foreign diplomats from hostile countries. The report cites FBI assessments on how extensively the Soviets use, diplomatic cover to hide spying activity. There are twenty-one hundred diplomats, UN officials, and trade representatives from the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact countries living in the United States. And according to the FBI, 30% of them are professional intelligence officers. The Committee report also says the Soviet Union is effectively using United Nations organizations worldwide to conduct spying operations. It says approximately eight hundred Soviets work for UN agencies, three hundred of them in New York, and one fourth of those are working for the KGB or the Soviet military intelligence, the GRU. Next week, the Reagan Administration is to deliver to. the Congress its, classified report on counter-intelligence. I'm David Malthus in Washington.。

Forum:Should school children take part-time jobs ?This is a discussion which will appear in a magazine. Editor: This month our panel looks at part-time jobs. Are they good for school children or not ? Headmaster: Definitely not. The children have got two full-time jobs already: growing up and going to school.Part-time jobs make them so tired they fall asleep in class.Mrs. Barnes: I agree. I know school hours are short, but there ' s homeworkas well, and children need a lot of sleep.Mr. Barnes: Young children perhaps, but some boysstay at school until they ' re eighteen or nineteen. Apart-time job can ' t harm them. In fact, it ' s good for them. They earn their pocket-money instead of askingtheir parents for it. And they see something of the world outside school. Businessman: You ' re absolutely right. Boys learn a lot from a part-time job. And we mustn ' t forget thatsome families need the extra money. If the pupils didn ' t take part -time jobs they couldn ' t stay at school.Editor: Well, we seem to be equally divided: two for, and two against.

A special committee of twelve senators today began theimpeachment trial of Federal J udge Harry Claiborne.It's the firstsuch proceeding in fifteen years. Claiborne is serving a jail sentencefor tax evasion.2. President Reagan today continued his campaign for a drUg7freeAmerica. He ordered mandatory testing for federal workers in sensi-tive positions. And he also sent Congress a legislative package thatwould increase federal anti-drug spending by nine hundred milliondollars, much of that on increased border patrols. The President saidthe legislation is the federal government's way of just saying no todrugs. "We're getting tough on drugs; we mean business. To thosewho are thinking of using drugs, we say 'Stop.' And to those whoare pushing drugs, we say 'Beware.' " Mandatory drug testing forsome federal workers is the most controversial part of the President'splan. It's been condemned by some employee groups.3. One person was killed and more than fifty injured today in Pariswhen a bomb exploded at the drivers' permit office at police head-quarters. It was the fourth blast in seven days in the French capital.Section Two: News in DetailTapescriptin Paris today, one person was killed and more than fifty wereinjured when a bomb exploded at police headquarters. This is thefourth attack on a crowded public target in a week. A police officerwas killed yesterday while removing a bomb from a restaurant onthe Avenue Champs Elysee. Minutes after that incident, Prime Min-ister Jacques Chirac announced new security measures aimed atcurbing terrorist activities in, France. Melodie Walker reports fromParis.A group calling itself 'the Committee for Solidarity with Araband Middle-Eastern Prisoners' has claimed responsibility for thecurrent series of bombings in Paris, in addition to ten other attacksin the French capital over the past year. The Committee has deliv-ered messages to news agencies in Beirut threatening to continue itsbombing campaign in Paris until the French government agrees torelease three men jailed in France on charges of terrorism. One of theconvicted prisoners, George lbraham Abdullah, is believed to be theleader of the Lebanese Army Faction suspected of killing a US mili-tary attache in Paris in 1982. The French government has officiallydeclared it will not release tht prisoners. In response to the repeatedattacks in Paris, Prime Minister Chirac last night announced newanti-terrorist measures: military patrols along the French boiderswill be increased and, beginning today, all foreigners will require avisa to enter France. Citizens of European Common Market coun-tries and Switzerland will be exempt from the visa requirement. ButAmericans planning to visit France will need to apply for visas at thenearest French consulate. For an initial period of fifteen days, how-ever, emergency visas will be granted at French airports and otherborder checkpoints. France has been plagued with terrorism at homeand abroad in recent years. In the past two weeks, three Frenchmembers of the United Nations peace keeping force in Lebanonhave been killed by remote-controlled bombs. Today, France,calledfor an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to discuss therole and safety of the force. Seven French hostages in Beirut are alsoa major concern for the Chirac government. Dominique Moazi, As-sociate Director of the French Institute forInternational Relations,says the bombings in Paris, the attacks on the UN troops, and thehostage situation are all indirectly related.'I think there is a global goal, which is looked after, and that isto punish France for its involvement in Middle-Eastern affairs, ei-ther Lebanon or the war between Iran and Iraq. And France is, atthe same time, more visible than any other European actors, inLebanon and in the Gulf.'According to Moazi, the long French tradition of granting polit-ical asylum has made France more open and accessible to terroristactivities."In the past we have given, unfortunately, the impression, whichwas maybe a reality, of being less resolute in our treatment of terror-ist action than, for example, the Israelis. So that combination of visi-bility, vulnerability, and lack of resolution has made us the ideal tar-get of terrorists now.'In a statement released today, President FrancoisMitterandsaid, ' The fight against terrorism is the business ofthe entirenation.' But despite the govemment's determination to combat ter-rorism, the question of how to do it remains unanswered. For Na-tional Public Radio, this is Melodie Walker in Paris.Section Three: Special ReportTapescriptThe United States Senate Intelligence Committee today releaseda report calling for sweeping changes in US security policies andcounter-intelligence, its first unclassified assessment of recent spycases. The Committee says the damage done has cost billions of dol-lars, threatening America's security,as never before. NPR's DavidMalthus has the story.The report states that the damage done from espionage and laxsecurity is worse than anyone in the government has yet acknow-ledged publicly. It concludes that US military plans and capabilitieshave been seriously compromised, intelligence operations gravelyimpaired. US technological advantages have been overcome in someareas because of spying. And diplomatic secrets were exposed to ad-versaries. Vermont Democrat Patrick Leahy is Vice-Chairman ofthe Senate Intelligence Committee.'The national security is many times threatened more by thisthan by the buildup of Soviet arms, or the buildup of Soviet person-nel, or breakthrough in weapon development."The Committee report says foreign intelligence services havepenetrated some of the most vital parts of US defense, intelligence,and foreign policy structures. The report cites a string of recentcases, including the Walker-Whitworth spy ring, which gave the So-viets the ability to decode at least a million military communications.Despite some improvements by the Reagan Administration in securi-ty and tough talk over the last two years, the report also concludesthat the administration has failed to follow through with enoughspecific steps to tighten security, and that its counter-intelligenceprograms have lacked the needed resources to be effective. Republi-can Dave Durenberger of Minnesota, Chairman of the IntelligenceCommittee, sums up the current situation this way:'Too many secrets, too much access to secrets, too many spies,too little accountability for securing our national secrets, and too lit-tle effort given to combatting the very real threat which spies repre-sent to our national security.'Senator Durenberger said the Committee found someprogresshas been made in toughening up security clearances for personnel,and some additional resources have been devoted to counteringtechnical espionage, but he said much more needs to bedone and hedescribed the current security system as one 'paralyzed by bureau-cratic inertia.' The Committee makes ninety-five specific recom-me,ndations, including greater emphasis on re-investigations ofcleared personnel, a streamlined classification system, more moneyfor counter-intelligence elements of the FBI, CIA and the militaryservices, and tighter controls on foreign diplomats from hostile coun-tries. The report cites FBI assessments on how extensively the Sovi-ets use, diplomatic cover to hide spying activity. There aretwenty-one hundred diplomats, UN officials, and trade representa-tives from the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact countries living in theUnited States. And according to the FBI, 30% of them are profes-sional intelligence officers.

Now, I see from the information you sent me that you've worked in yourlast employment for nearly four years. Was that a large restaurant? Elina: Medium-size for Finland, about forty tables.Johnson: I see. Well, you'd find it rather different here. Ours is much smaller, we have onlyten tables.Elina: That must be very cosy.Johnson: We try to create a warm, intimate atmosphere. Now, as to the job, you would beexpected to look after five tables normally, though we get in extra staff for peak periods.Elina: I see.Johnson: I'm the Restaurant Manager and Head Waiter, so you'd be working directlyunder me. You'd be responsible for bringing in the dishes from the kitchen, serving thedrinks, and if necessary looking after the bills. So you'd be keptpretty busy.Elina: I'm used to that. In my last position we were busy most of the time, especially insummer.Johnson: Good. Now, is there anything you'd like to ask about the job? Elina: Well, the usual question??what sort of salary were you thinking of paying?Johnson: We pay our waiters forty pounds a week, and you would get your evening mealfree.Elina: I see.Johnson: Now, you may have wondered why I asked you here so late in the day. The factis, I would like to see you in action, so to speak. Would you be willing to act as a waitresshere this evening for half-an-hour or so? Our first customer will be coming in, let me see,in about ten minutes' time.Elina: Well, I'm free this evening otherwise.Johnson: Good. And in return perhaps you will have dinner with us? Now, let me showyou the kitchen first. This way, please ...B. Discussion.??sound of kettle whistling??Tom: Well, what's the forecast? Are we going to have more snow? And ... is your motherawake?Helen: Hang on, Dad. The first answer is 'yes' and the second is 'no'. Let's have a cup oftea.Tom: That's a good idea. ... Where's Jean? Where's your mother? Jean, how about somebreakfast?Helen: Shh. Mother's still asleep, as I've told you.Tom: And what about the twins? Where are Peter and Paul?Helen: They were sick all night. That's why Mum is so tired today.And ... they're having abirthday party tomorrow. Remember?Tom: Another birthday? Helen, look at the clock. It's 8:45. Let's go.We're going to be late.C. Past Mistakes.??Me, officer? You're joking!??Come off it, Mulligan. For a start, you spent three days watching the house. Youshouldn't have done that, you know. The neighbors got suspicious and phoned thepolice ...??But I was only looking, officer.??... and on the day of the robbery, you really shouldn't have used your own car. We gotyour number. And if you'd worn a mask, you wouldn't have been recognized. ??I didn't go inside!??Ah, there's another thing. You should've worn gloves, Mulligan. If you had, you wouldn'thave left your fingerprints all over the house. We found yourfingerprints on the jewels,too.??You mean ... you've found the jewels???Oh yes. Where you ... er ... 'hid' them. Under your mattress.??My God! You know everything! I'll tell you something, officer??you shouldn't have joinedthe police force. If you'd taken up burglary, you'd have made a fortune!D. Monologue.Why do people play football? It's a stupid game, and dangerous too. Twenty-two menfight for two hours to kick a ball into a net. They get more black eyes than goals. On dry,hard pitches they break their bones. On muddy ones they sprain their muscles.Footballers must be mad. And why do people watch football? They must be mad too.They certainly shout and scream like madmen. In fact I'm afraid to goout when there's afootball match. The crowds are so dangerous. I'd rather stay at home and watch TV. Butwhat happens when I switch on? They're showing a football match. So I turn on the radio.What do I hear? 'The latest football scores.' And what do I see when I open a newspaper?Photos of footballers, interviews with footballers, reports of football matches. Footballersare the heroes of the twentieth century. They're rich and famous. Why? Because they cankick a ball around. How stupid! Everyone seems to be mad about football, but I'm not.Down with football, I say.Section 3Dictation.(sound of knocking at door)Mrs. Brink: Come in. Oh, it's you again, Tom. What have you done this time?Tom: I've cut my finger and it's bleeding a lot.Mrs. Brink: Let me see, Tom ... Hmmm, that is a bad cut. I can clean it and put a plaster onit, but you'll have to see the doctor.。

He wore it on a fine gold chain across the front of his waistcoat, and when I was small he promised to leave it to me in his will."When I'm gone," he said, "this is going to be yours."Unfortunately that will never happen now. About three months ago, my grandfather came up to London to visit us. The first Sunday morning after he arrived, my youngest son said he wanted to go to the park."We'll do better than that," said my grandfather, "we'll go and feed the pigeons in Trafalgar Square." So off they went. They got home about tea-time and my grandfather was looking very upset."My watch," he said, "it's gone. Someone must have stolen it while we were feeding the pigeons."301My name is Daniel. I am French. I live in a small town. I work in a hotel, but I do not live in the hotel. I live with my parents.

I'm too old.Tom: But you are only twenty!Sally: That's too old for a swimmer. If I swam in an international competition now, I wouldn't win. So I'd rather not swim at all.Tom: But don't you enjoy swimming?Sally: I used to, when I was small. But if you enter for big competitions you have to work very hard. I used to get up at 6 am to go to the pool. I had to train before school, after school and at weekends. I swam thirty-five miles every week!Tom: But you were famous at fifteen. And look at all those cups.Sally: Would you like to polish them? It's true that I have some wonderfulmemories. I enjoyed visiting other countries, and the Olympics were very exciting. But I missed more important things. While other girls were growing up, I was swimming. What can I do now?301There is a small shop at the end of our road. I buy my newspaper there every Sunday. This is the only shop that is open on a Sunday, so it is always very busy. They sell milk, eggs, biscuits, tea and coffee. You can get aspirins, toothpaste or a writing pad there. It is a nice little shop.02This evening I am going to the cinema. I sometimes go with Beatriz, but this evening I am going alone.

I'm going to open a savings account for them. They need to learn how to save money.301My grandfather lives with us. He is seventy years old and I like talking to him. Every day I go for a walk with him in the park. My grandfather has a dog. The dog's name is Nelson. Nelson is old and he has very short legs and bad eyes. But my grandfather likes him very much.02I have a small black and white television and I can get a good picture. But my brother has got a color television.

About twenty pounds, I'm afraid.Man: That's rather a lot. And how long will it take?Female Assistant: About a month.Man: Thank you. I'd like to think about it.Instructor: Listen again to the customer from the typewriter shop. He thinks twenty pounds is rather a lot but he needs a typewriter... Then he remembers his friend, Tony. Tony has several typewriters. Bob, the customer, has an idea. He meets his friends, Tony. Listen to their conversation.Dialogue D:Tony: Hello, Bob. What's that heavy parcel you're carrying?Bob: It's my old typewriter. I've just been to the shop. The assistant says it'll cost about twenty pounds to repair.Tony: That's rather a lot.
