She made a point of telling her fellow crew members about this. Because it was April lst, April Fool's Day, the day people play tricks on one another, the captain decided to have a little fun. About an hour before landing, he made an announcement that went like this: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the captain speaking. I have a little bit of bad news. There're some thunderstorms at our destination, and they've currently closed the airport. They expect it to reopen in about 30 minutes to an hour. As one might expect, this will result in long delays. As we've come all the way from the West Coast, we don't even have enough fuel to circle until the airport reopens. Therefore, we are going to be diverting to Cleveland, and we should be landing in about 30 minutes. We'II take some fuel there and get you back on your way to our original destination. I'm terribly sorry for the delay. However, we'Il get you there just as soon as possible."It was at this moment that you could hear someone running up to the cockpit. The cockpit door flewopen, and sure enough it was the lead flight attendant mumbling something like, "This can't be happening. What shall I do?" As she went on painfully, the captain made another announcement: "Ladies and gentlemen, happy April Foo1's Day!" Key: 1. T 2. F 3. T 4. F S. TTask3: What to do for momScriptYoung men and women, tomorrow will be Mother's Day. Some of you are still wondering what to do for your mom. Here's my advice. .Look out for anything that she plans to buy, and buy it if you can afford it. For example, a casual dress or formal office wear. Or, it may be a hair clip with a touch of difference. Check out if she is planning to get a new microwave or a new steam iron, and give it to her if you can afford it.You can get some ideas by considering what her likes and dislikes are. If she likes cats, how about giving her a pet or something that has a cat's picture on it? But make sure she doesn't find out that you're getting her a present. Let her gift be a pleasant surprise.Definitely spend some time with her, especially if you are not living with her. Make her feel special. For example, you can cook a special dish for the day. You can also throw a little party and invite those who are close to her.And of course, if she enjoys outings, take a little trip with her. And if possible, take one with your entire family. She'll love it for sure. After all, she is the one who takes care of all of you. A special trip to the countryside could show her how much you care for her. If she is happy, I'm sure you'Il feel happy, too. Key:1) buy 2) office wear 3) likes 4) cats 5) pet6) time 7) special dish 8) little party 9) little trip 10) countryside IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1 Eat, drink and be merry on Christmas.Nora: My mother bought an enormous 25-pound turkey for Christmas dinner.

(5)Your family prolongs the celebration for three days!Nora: We start by decorating the tree on Christmas Eve, putting ornaments, lights, and artificial snowflakes on it.Susan: Do you hang stockings by the fireplace and have a star on top of the tree?Nora: Yes. And we have another activity. We also "give not expecting to get".Susan: That's a peculiar expression. What do you mean by that?Nora: It's secret giving. We sneak up to the door of somebody we want to give a gift to, ring the doorbell, and run.Susan: So, you're not expecting anything; you're just being generous. That's a kind-hearted gesture.

They do. I believe the round moon cakes also (4)symbolize a family reunion.Chris: Well, today Thanksgiving in the States has developed into a major holiday.Susan: True. It's a very emotional time.

Susan: But you have the rest of the year to lose those unwanted pounds. And losing weight will give you something to be thankful for next Thanksgiving.MODEL3Don'tlet ghosts frighten you on HalloweenScriptSusan: Hey, Kim! (l)Are you OK? You seem badly shaken.

Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: The Wilsons' ThanksgivingScriptThanksgiving is one of America's most popular holidays. It is a day for expressing thanks for the good things in life. It is also a day for family reunion. On that day many people travel long distances to get together with their families. For many Americans, Thanksgiving is the time when the members of a family gather.But not everyone can spend Thanksgiving with his or her family. Today we'll introduce you to a couple, Joan and Sandy Wilson, who could not afford to travel long distances to visit their parents. They regretted not being able to celebrate Thanksgiving with all their family members. But soon they met other people who also were separated from their families. So the Wilsons began holding a yearly Thanksgiving dinner for what they called their "extended family". This included people in their community. All the guests brought food to share for Thanksgiving dinner.The group has grown over the years. To accommodate all the guests, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson now have to add small tables to their large one in the big dining room. At first, many of their friends brought their babies and young children. Now some of the first guests are grandparents.Like other Americans, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson and their visitors enjoy a long day of cooking, eating andtalking. The traditional meal usually includes a turkey. Other traditional Thanksgiving foods served with turkey are sweet potatoes, cranberries and pumpkin pies.Questions and keyl. What is true of a typical Thanksgiving Day?A) It is a day for family reunion.2. Who are included in the "extended family"?D) People in the neighborhood.3. How many generations of people does the Wilsons' party include?C) Three.4. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as traditional Thanksgiving food?B) Roast duck.5. What is the passage mainly about?C) A couple who spend Thanksgiving with people other than their family members.Task 2: Father’s DayScript and keyFather's Day is a fairly new (Sl)celebration in Britain compared with Mother's Day, which has been a (S2)popular festival in the U.K. for a very long time.The origins of the celebration are (S3)Americans, and it was inspired by the actions of a man named William Smart. His wife (S4)died giving birth to their sixth child, so he raised six children alone without (S5) remarrying, which was undoubtedly unusual back in those days.His (S6)daughter, Sonora Dodd, realized when she was an adult what her father had sacrificed for his children. It was in the early (S7)1900s and she was actually at church one day, listening to a sermon on Mother's Day. She thought there should also be a Father's Day celebration. So (S8)the tradition was born, on the third Sunday every June, close to the anniversary of Sonora’s father’s death .Britain took the idea of Father's Day from the American celebration and it has been celebrated officially since the 1970s. What do British people do for Father's Day? Well, most people buy their fathers a card. (S9) The card probably has a nice message on it saying what a great dad their father is. Some people do buy presents as well. Popular gifts for dads are probably ties, chocolates, or socks because these are things that dads can always use even if they don't want them. Some families might do things together to celebrate Father's Day like going for a meal. As a special treat, (S10) British people might give their dad a bit of a rest-make him a cup of tea, or even wash his car and mow the lawn.Task3: St. Valentine's storyScript and key:Let me introduce myself. My name is Valentine. I lived in Rome during the third century. At that time, Rome was ruled by an emperor named Claudius. He' wanted to have a big army, and he expected men to volunteer to join. Seeing many men did not want to leave their wives and families, Claudius had a crazy idea. He thought that if men were not married, they would not mind joining the army. So he passed a law to forbid any more marriages. I thought it was preposterous! I certainly wasn't going to support that law!I was a priest, and one of my favorite activities was to marry couples. I kept on performing marriage ceremonies, secretly. One night, we heard footsteps and shouts of soldiers outside. It was scary! The couple I was marrying escaped in time, but I was caught. I was thrown in jail and told that my punishment was death.Then wonderful things happened. Many young people came to the jail to visit me. They threw flowersand notes up to my window. They wanted me to know that they, too, believed in love.One of these young people was the daughter of the prison guard. Sometimes we would sit and talk for hours. She helped me to keep my spirits up. On the day I was to die, I left my friend a little note thanking her for her friendship and loyalty. I signed, "Love from your Valentine."I believe that note started the custom of exchanging love messages on Valentine's Day.Key1. He thought that if men were not married, they would not mind joining the army. So he passed a law to forbid any more marriages.2. He kept on performing marriage ceremonies, secretly.3. They came to the jail to visit him. They threw flowers and notes up to his window.4. She was one of those young people and the daughter of the prison guard.5. Before he was killed, Valentine left the girl a little note thanking her for her friendship and loyalty. He signed, "Love fromyour Valentine." That note started the custom.Viewing and SpeakingKey:1)fun 2) headache 3) 150 4)two million 5)feeling6) atmosphere 7) traditional-looking 8) lights 9) regulations 10)family 11) translates 12) children 13)most famous 14)different 15)spreads。

Listening InTask 1: Tips for job interviews.ScriptM:After listening to the career officer’s talk, I’ve now realized the importance of getting prepared for an interview.W:Quite true. First of all, we should never be late for an interview. If you’re not punctual, they’ll suspect that you’ll be late for work in future.M: And before going to the interview, we had better pay attention to our dress. We must look professional without overdoing it. Careless clothes will lead them into thinking that you’re likely to do your job carelessly.W: Yes. During the interview, it is important to look confident without being too pushy. It’s necessary to maintain eye contact. This shows your interest in the conversation and helps to maintain the communication between you and the interviewer.M: Besides, many employers attach importance to the education you’ve received. We need to highlight those courses, especially valuable to the job we’re applying for. W: Book knowledge is not enough. We must show them we have practical experience in the field. Tell them about our internship, and emphasize the skills that are useful in the job we’re seeking.M: Sure! Many students will tell the prospective employer that they have a good command of English.W: They’re also eager to tell interviewer about their computer skills with PowerPoint, Excel, and so on. Students from lower-tier universities especially need certificates to show they’ve acquired those skills before they can hope to compete against students from prestigious universities.M: Character is considered an important factor in contemporary society, where teamwork is a must.W: Well, too many students are saying more or less the same thing. If everybody says, “I’m warm-hearted and cooperative, get along well with my classmates, and have good team spirit,” the boss will soon get fed up.M: Perhaps we should let the work we’ve done speak for itself.W: Right on. Participation is important. If you can show them you’re an important leader of the Student Union of the University or the Department or you’ve organized a singing competition, etc., obviously you’re a good team player.Key1.T2.F3.T4. T5. F6.T7. TTask2 Are you ready for a phone interview?ScripNowadays, many employers use telephone interviews to screen candidates in order to narrow the pool of applicants who will be invited for in-person interview. They are also used as a way to minimize the expenses in involved in interviewing out-of-town candidates.While you’re job-searching, it’s important to be prepared for a phone interview on a moment’s notice. You never know when a recruiter might call. So, you’d better take a look at the following phone interview tips.Before the interview, you should get well-prepared. For example, you can compile a list of your background and skills, your strengths and weaknesses, as well as a list of answers to typical phone interview questions. You need to keep your resume on the top of your desk or tape it to the wall near the phone, so it’s at your fingertips when you need to answer questions. Also, you should have a pen and paper handy for note taking.It’s helpful to practice interviewing. You can rehearse answers to those typical questions you might be asked. Have a friend or family member conduct a mock interview and tape record it, so you can see how you sound over the phone. In this way, you will be able to hear your “ums” and “uhs” and “OKs”, and you can practice reducing them from your conversational speech.During the phone interview, try to smile. Smiling will project a positive image to the listener and will change the tone of your voice. Over the phone, you must speak slowly, clearly and politely. You should use interviewer’s title (Mr. or Ms. and their last name), and remember to only use a first name if they ask you to. It is essential to interrupt the interviewer. On your part, you should try to give answers that are short and to the point.Finally, remember your goal is to set up a face-to-face interview. After you thank the interviewer, ask if it would be possible to meet in person.Question and key1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a purpose of screening candidateson the phone?B) To test candidates’ psychological stability when they speak on the phone.2. What can you infer from the speaker’s recommendation of compiling a list of information about yourself?C) Without it, you may become disorganized while being interviewed.3. What does the speak say about your resume?C) Put it near the phone.4. According to the speaker, why should you conduct a simulated interview?A) To reduce unnecessary words in an interview.5. Which of the following is suggested when you address the interviewer on thephone?D) All of the above.Task3 Do you know how to write a resume? ScriptYour resume, or CV in British English, has one mission and one mission only: to get you a job interview. Your resume is usually the first impression an employer has of you. And as “you never get a second chance to make a first impression”, you‘d better get it right firs time. Here’re some suggestions that may be of use in preparing a resume.First, use a design that demands attention. Employers don’t have time to read through each of your job descriptions to know if you have the skills they need. The design of your resume must do it for them. Your resume should be concise, well-organized and relevant. It should emphasize the most important and relevant points about your experience, skills and education.Second, put important information first. List important information at the beginning of your job descriptions. Put statements in your resume in order of importance and relevance to the job you want. A powerful statement with exact numbers influences every statement that follows.Third, target the job. You will have more success if you adjust your resume and cover letter for the specific skills an employer is seeking. This means you would write one resume for one particular job and a different resume for another job. In other words, you need to “repackage” yourself. In that way, an employer will see immediately whether you are suitable person for the job. It is not dishonest to “repackage” yourself. You are simply pressing yourself and your skills in the best light for a particular employer. This will help you t get more interviews and allow you to apply for a wider range of jobs.Question and key1.Why does the speaker say a resume is important?C) Because it leaves a first impression and you have only one chance to do so.2.Which of the following will NOT be regarded as a feature of good resumes?A) Details3.Where should you put the important information in your job descriptionsaccording to the passage?A) At the beginning.4.How many resumes would the speaker advise you to write if you applied for threejobs?C) Three.5. What is the passage mainly about?B) Resume tips.IV.

An American applied for the same job. Quite by coincidence, the two amplifications had the same qualification, and were asked to take the same test by the manager of the Human Resource Department. Upon completion of the test, both men missed only one of the questions. The manager went to Murphy and said, “Thank you for your interest, but we’ve decided to give the American the job.”Bewildered by the manager’s decision, Murphy asked, “Why would you be doing that? We both got nine questions correct. This being Ireland and me being Irish, I should get the job!”The manger answered calmly, “We have made our decisions based on the correct answers, but on the question you missed.”Unconvinced and somewhat indignant, Murphy question, “And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?”The manager’s answer took him by surprise, “Simple, on QuestionNo.5, the American put down ‘I don’t’ know’, and you put down ‘Neither do I’.”Key1.F2.T3.T4.F5.TTask3: A guide to a successful job interviewScriptThere are times that you will be asked a hard question during a job interview. Don’t panic, they just want to see how you handle a difficult situation. Being prepared is always the best policy. Here are some samples of questions and some advice on how to handle them properly.Why should we choose you? To this question, you can ask yourself why you applied, what makes you suitable for this position, what the company can gain from hiring you, what you have to offer, how you would handle this job, etc.Often they ask you to tell them about yourself. You can split your answer into two, the professional and the personal level. Both are important, and how you move from one to the other depends on what you have to say. You can give a brief summary of your life, professional and personal, with less emphasis on the early past, and more emphasis on the present and the future.When asked “What are your weaknesses?” by the interview, don’t say, “I don’t have any.” Everyone has weakness, and it takes strength to recognize them. Say something relevant but hugely important to the specific positive, and always add something positive like, “I haven’t had a lot of exposure to the on-site work, but I’m looking forward to being more involved in dealing with customers directly and learning their needs.”Another common question is: “What are your strengths?” You should customize your answer to meet the position requirements. Keep in mind the things they asked for in the advertisement. Tell them your strengths, but also show them how they how they would be applied to this job. To show how your strengths were valuable, use the “Why, where, when, how” to demonstrate and prove your strengths.Question and key1.What is the passage mainly concerned with?C) Getting prepared for questions at a job interview.2.What does the speaker NOT mention as an answer to the question, “Why shouldwe choose you?”C) How you can beat other competitors.3.What does the speaker advise you to stress when introducing yourself?B) Your present and future.4.What might the speaker advise you NOT to say when asked, “What are yourweaknesses?”A) I don’t have any.5.What should you say when asked about your strong points?D) You should relate your strengths to the job requirements.Viewing and speakingHiring and firing1.
