英语流利说level6 unit 1原文L6 Unit 1-1 ListeningHarry Beecham works for a hi-tech German company based in the Munich.Last month, he was in an automobile accident.He was on his way to attend an important meeting in New York City.He had just arrived on a flight from London and was taking a taxi into the city.The weather was terrible and the road was icy.He was in a hurry so he asked the taxi driver to get him into the city as soon as possible.The taxi driver agreed and sped up but just as they left the airport, the car was out of control.It spun around and skidded into(滑入) the path of an oncoming truck.Fortunately, the truck was going too fast, so nobody was killed. But the taxi was severely damaged and both passengers were injured. The taxi driver survived with only a few injured because he was wearing a seatbelt.The car accident wouldn’t have been happened had the weather been better.Had he put on his seatbelt, he might not have been injured so badly.Had the weather been better, the accident wouldn’t h ave been happened.The taxi airbag had also been deployed(使展开), absorbing much of the impact.However, Harry, who was in the back seat, having put on his seatbelt. As a result, he was severely injured, and had to be rushed to the hospital.Now, a month la ter, Harry still can’t remember much of what happened. When he first woke up in the hospital, it was several hours after the accident and he wasn’t sure where he was. The bad news was that he couldn’t move his legs. This was because his back had been broken in the accident. The doctor later told him that he might never regain the use of his legs. Some of his nerves in his spine(脊柱) and legs had been damaged but everything else was OK. Now, Harry is trying to figure out what to do. If he works hard and exercises every day, there will still a chance that he legs will recover on their own. There are also some new treatments that might help his nerve regenerate. Still, he should be prepared for the long recovery and possibility that he might never walk again. Wi thout the use of his legs, he wouldn’t be able tocontinue working in the same way. it wouldn’t be possible to travel, so he would have to find another way to attend the meeting. Either that or he would have to look for another way to make a living. Harry has a good disability insurance, so money won’t be problem for a while. But sooner or later, he wants to be able to earns a living again. Of course he isn’t planning to give up on his legs. If he works hard, he might still be able to regain the use and learn to walk again. Some of his nerves had been damaged but there was a chance that they were healed. The new drugs being developed might make it possible for the nerves to grow back. Still, he has to face the possibility that nothing will work. Whatever happens, Harry is determined to think positively. Even he can’t walk, he can still attend the meeting all over the world. With technology, he could be anywhere and there is much that he can still do. Luckily, he still has to use his arms and hands and his brain is still functioning. With the right attitude, he can find a way forward. There is no reason to despair in or feeling sorry for oneself. That kind of think won’t solve anything. He just hopes that his company or another will get him a chance to prove himself. He could still be a valuable asset for them, come or make.Spun around使…旋转( spin的过去式和过去分词)L6 Unit 1-1 Dialogue 衣着和礼仪Hey, what do you think? do you like it?No, it’s too short.

The boy grew tired(厌倦) and bored while watching the sheep, so he found ways to amuse himself, such as climbing trees or chasing sheep. One day he came up with what he thought was a brilliant idea. He climbed to the top of a tree and shouted toward the village: “wolf! Wolf! Help me please!”When the villagers heard his cries for help, they rushed up the hill to rescue him and chase the wolf away. Of course, when they got there, there was no wolf to be seen, and the boy, who was still in the tree, was laughing. The sheep were grazing(吃草) peacefully. Annoyed. The villagers returned to the village and back to their normal activities.A few days later, the boy grew bored again and played the same trick on the villagers. This time the villagers were furious at the boy. That night he was punished by his mother for his bad behavior.For a while after that, life went on as normal and the boy behaved. He didn’t want to be punished again. Then, one afternoon while he was tending the sheep, he noticed that the sheep were bleating(小羊的叫声) and nervous. He didn’t know wh at was causing their strange behavior, so he climbed a tree to see if he could determine what was going on. What he saw from the tree was a frightening sight, a big, hairy wolf chasing after the sheep. Terrified, he screamed for help: “wolf, wolf! There’s a wolf chasing the sheep!”This time, when the villagers heard his cries for help, they were convinced that it was another one of his pranks(恶作剧). Nobody believed that there was really a wolf, so they ignored his frantic(发狂的、发疯的) calls for help. The wolf, having nothing to fear, feasted on （尽情享受）several of the sheep and then slipped back into the forest.What would you do if you ever found yourself lost in the wild? To find out, you can join a weekend survival course in Australia’s Outback Desert(内陆沙漠). This vast area is famous for its harsh(残酷的、严厉的) desert climate.To survive, your first task will be to find water, a rare commodity in the desert. Animals such as ants and seed-eating birds are strong indicators of water. You can also cut and suck moisture from the roots and leaves of plants. Trees like the desert oak(橡树) have roots near the surface. But be careful. The branches of gum trees are a rich source of water, but the leaves are poisonous, so don’t eat them.The best place to build a shelter is in an area with the least amount of(最少的) sunlight, like between sand dunes(沙丘) or in a trench(沟).To make a trench, dig a hole enough to lie down in and use the extra sand to create a barrier or wall on each side. This can help to shield you from the glare(刺眼) and scorching heat of the sun. nights can be cold, so knowing how to make a fire is essential. One way to build a fire is to use the hand drill(钻头) method. This is one of the oldest and simplest ways to start a fire. It involves rolling a stick between your hands while pressing it onto a notched(凹口的) piece of wood with dry tinder(引燃物)below. The idea is to use friction to create enough heat to ignite the tinder, this can be a lot of work.As for food, you’ll have to be open-minded. Some forms of life can be ugly to look at but can provide you with enough protein to survive. They may even taste good, like scrambled eggs(炒鸡蛋).L6 Unit 1-2 Listening过去时和虚拟语气Now that you have studied English at a high level, you need to be able to talk about the language itself.One of the biggest areas of confusion for students is the difference between the pass tense and present prefect. The pass tense is indicated by use of pass tense marker, represent V(d). here are some regular verbs and their pass tense forms. So, as you can see, for regular verbs, the pass tense form is indicated by the addition of “ed” at the end of the verbs. However, some of the common verbs in English is irregular, so it’s important to learn them. Here are some examples. Altogether, there are over 200 irregular verbs in normal use.Many people think that the pass tense form only indicates the pass time. However, there is only one of the possible meanings. The pass tense form is also used to express something that is unlikely or imaginary, from the speaker’s point of view.Here is an example,He wishes he had a car.The fact is that he doesn’t have a car, so the use of had indicates that it isn’t real, it’s imaginary.If he had a car, he could drive us to school. Again, he doesn’t have a car, so he can’t drive us to school. This condition expresses something that isn’t a fact. It’s a counterfactual condition, which means it goes against what we know or believe.Look at these two sentences,If she waits another week, she can save money.If she waited another week, she could save money there is going to be a sale.both sentences are correct, but they have different meanings. In the top sentence, the condition that she waits is more likely from the speaker’s point of view. In the bottom sentence, the speaker thinks that it’s less likely that she’s going to wait.If that flight leaves on time, we are going to miss it, so let’s run.If the flight left a few minutes later, we could take the next shuttle bus.When we talk about the experience of result, we use the present perfect form. This form uses have followed by the participle. for regular verbs, this participle(分词) is identical to the pass tense form. For irregular verb, this participle is different.When we use the perfect form, the primary focus on the subject of the sentences, not the verbs. It emphasizes its condition, experience of results, rather than action or event. In these 2 examples, we see the contrast.She has already left the hotel.She left the hotel a few minutes ago.The top sentence gives the condition or state of subject, and the bottom sentence expresses the event. The top sentence describes the condition of the subject of the sentence, she rather than the event. The fact she has left the hotel is now part of her experience or state of being. The bottom sentence expresses the action or event, she left, which is something she did. In general, the pass tense expresses the event or acts, and the perfect form expresses the experience or conditions. When we use the perfect form of the verbs, we focus on the state of the subject and not the action or event.Know that the pass form expresses events of specific point or periods of time, such as late year or the pass 5 years.These events distance from the speaker’s point of view.He worked at several companies.He finished the project last week.The perfect form expresses the state of something from the speaker’s point of view, not distance in time.He has worked at several companies.He has finished the project.These 2 sentences are incorrect and confusing they give 2 different points of view.He has finished his work last week.Here are some sentences that use the perfect form. Some are simple, such as the first one and some are complex, like the last one.He has finished practicingHe has been practicingShe may have been practicingShe may have eatenHer computer may have been stolenThe last one is complex because it combines many verb forms, including the passive.L6 Unit 1-2 Dialogue都市迷失What are you thinking about, you look so pensive?I was just thinking about how much things have changed since I was a child.Oh, sometimes I think about that too. What were your thoughts?The nostalgic(怀旧的) for sure. Generally, I remember the best times and then I get a bit depressed when I’m t hinking about how things have changed.What kind of changes depress you?Well, one thing is the pace of life. Everything is so fast pace now, so there isn’t enough time to think.That’s because you’ve grown up. You’re not a child anymore so you have responsibilities.It’s more than just having responsibilities. My parents had to work but they also had other things. My dad used to go fishing on the weekend and mon used to work in her garden. She loved to grow flowers and vegetables.Yeah, that does sound nice. Living in the city makes thing like that, really difficult.Yes, living in the city is certainly a part of problem, right?Well, that depends on you. You make things sound as if you have no choices in life. It’s the choices you’ve made that push wh ere you are now.Sure, that’s certainly a part of problem. I guess I’ve changed.You want a lifestyle that you can’t have in the city. If you really wanted those things, you could move back to the countryside.Not, that’s not an option. If I did that, m y wife would divorce me.Have you ever talked about it with her?Not, I haven’t. we don’t talk about things like that. we are both too busy. I think she’s even busier than I am.Well, maybe she will surprise you. Maybe she’d like a change too. You should talk to her.Em, I don’t know. What about you?I’m okay. My wife and I accept things as they are. They try to think positively and we support each other.It sounds like you have a good marriage.Yes, we do. And one reason for that is we share our thoughts with each other. We don’t want to grow apart like so many couples.Maybe I’ll surprise my wife and start sharing my thoughts with her.Well, if you don’t do it now, nothing is going to change.Yes, you’re probably right. I’ll think about it.L6 Unit 1-2 reading南极洲和切尔诺贝利On Antarctica, the world’s coldest continent, the average high temperature is -49 degrees Celsius. In the summer, the sun never sets, and in the winter, it never rises. Keeping sane(保持清醒) there is its own special challenge.The McMurdo Station is a research base perched(停留) on the edge of the Ross Ice Shelf, the world’s largest body of floating ice. The station is administered by the United States and is the largest community in Antarctica. Capable of supporting more than 1200 residents, the population of the station drops to 150 brave (perhaps foolish) people when winter begins in March. Their task is to maintain the station during the months of total night. The biologists, astronomers(天文学家), geologists, and climate scientists who were there before, have gone, as any research is impossible in the brutal(残酷的) winter.Every day the remaining stuff of maintenance personnel(维修人员) perform their routine(常规;例行程序) task and make repairs when needed. Sometimes they peer(凝视) through the darkness toward their friends from New Zealand, at Scott Base, about 2 miles away. Though most of the time they’re just voices on the radio, it’s nice to have neighbors not too far away. Together, they share a power grid(电网) and one coast of a dark forbidding(令人生畏的) continent.Though the days are dark and freezing cold in the depths of winter, the moon will rest(休息) above the horizon(地平线上) for weeks at a time. Its pale(苍白的、无力的) light illuminates the cold, craggy(陡峭的，嶙峋) landscape as if acknowledging a companion and reaffirming the bonds of life. So even for those who live in the darkest part of the earth, there is light.To acknowledge somethings means to recognize or admit its existence.The writer shares what it feels like to live and work in Antarctica.On April 26, 1986, Unit 4 of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor in northern Ukraine, then a part of the Soviet Union, was shut down(停工) for an unauthorized safety test. When the nuclear fuel rods(杆) hit the cooling water, the fission reaction(裂变反应) accelerated out of control due to a sudden power surge(动力高峰）. This caused thereactor to overheat and build up pressure until its structure failed and it blew up(爆炸), releasing large amounts of radiation. It took officials a whole day to comprehend(理解) the scale of the disaster and to order an evacuation(疏散) of the surrounding area. Some 50,000 people had to leave, not knowing that they would never return.In the following months, massive efforts were made to decontaminate(净化) the area while increased radiation levels were detected across much of Europe. Fallout from the disaster continues to this day, decades later, and long-term effects such as cancers are still being investigated. Estimates of the number of deaths that will eventually result from the accident vary enormously.The forest area near the reactor site is one of the most radioactive places on Earth. Named the Red Forest because its trees turned a reddish-brown(红褐色) color as they died, the forest is trying to make a recovery. Animals such as elk(麋鹿) and eagles(老鹰) have been seen in the area. And birch trees(桦树) grown where the radioactive trees of the forest were bulldozed(铲平) and buried by the Soviet government.Some people have returned as well, mostly former residents who returned illegally after the evacuation. The old company town of Pripyat, once home to 50.000 plant workers is still deserted, but is slowly being reclaimed(再生) by the forest. It seems that nature can recover and even thrive where humans cannot. Let’s hope that humans can learn from this experience. Chernobyl, and more recently, Fukushima in Japan, have lessons to teach us.It’s clear that the officials were completely unprepared for the accident.L6 Unit 1-3 listening神经疾病和身体恢复Jack is a psychiatrist, which means he treats people who have mental problems. He has been treating patients for many years and he has used variety of treatments. Sometimes he just listens and talks to patients and sometimes he uses meditations. This meditation affects the brain in many different ways. Over the years, Jack found that some patients improved with the treatment while others did improve at all. In some cases, some patients respond to the treatment was the opposite of what was expected. Several years ago, he had a young patient who showed him why his treatment di dn’t work. The patient’s name was Bob. He was 21 years when he first came to see Jack for help. The reason he came was because he had attempted to suicide.Bob was extremely smart and was a student at one of best universities in theworld. However, he was often extremely depressed. Because of his depression, he took drugs and drank a lot of alcohol. It was an overdose of drugs and alcohols that nearly killed him. His roommate called 911 when he discovered Bob unconscious in dormitory room. Once Bob recovered and was discharged from the hospital(出院), he took time off from school to get help. That was when he came the clinic where Jack pack his medicine. At first, Jack attempted to treat Bob with anti-present medicine. He also used conversation and recommendations to help him to rethink his life and memories.After a few months, Bob began to improve but only moderately. Though he cooperated with the treatment, he continued to think negatively. He also continued to go through periods of depression. As a result, he wasn’t able to return to school.Because of the treatment was working, Jack tried something new. He decided to use brain scans to see inside Bob’s brain. Brain scans is a way to look inside the brain to see how it was functioning. What the scans showed about Bob was crucial. They showed that his brain was damaged in a way that nobody had anticipated it. there was significant damage to the front part of his brain. an injury to this part of brain can contribute to depression and negative feeling. It can also contribute to feeling of anger and rage. The fact his brain was injured and unbalanced expresses why the treatment hadn’t worked.The brain scan showed why the meditation and other treatments had worked. They had failed because they didn’t address injur y. After discussing the injury with Bob and his parents, they concluded that the cause of the injury was from playing soccer. In fact, Jack knew of quite a few soccer players who had suffered head injuries from playing that sports. Heading a hard soccer ball many times can damage the brain.With this new information, Jack used a new medication to treat the injury. Gradually, Bob improved, and after a few months, was close to a full recovery. He no longer had any signs of depression and was finally able to return to school. Ultimately, Bob graduated from his university with great honors and entered a famous law school. From this experience, Jack realize that the brain imaging had allowed him to save Bob’s life. If it hadn’t been for the scans, Bob would have ended up killing himself.Detecting and treating the injury to the front part of his brain was the key step in the treatment. Jack now believes that the brain scan can be an important tool for psychiatrists. an injury brain must be healed before other treatments such as vitamins,drugs or counselling, can work.He wouldn’t have to come to see Jack if he hadn’t tried to kill himself.He hadn’t attempted suicide; he wouldn’t have come to see Jack.Had the treatment been successful, he probably would have returned to school.L6 Unit 1-3 Dialogue健康类电子产品We’re getting a lot of complaints.About the proposed new policy?Yes, people think that it’s an invasion of policy.Don’t they agree that regular exercise and staying in shape is good for anyone?Sure, they a gree. But we don’t think we have the right to use an APP to track how much they exercise.Using the app is the only way to make sure our employees to get enough exercise.This new policy can reduce our health cost and increase productivity, which helps everyone.That’s not how they see it. This kind of regulation makes people feel like robots. They have no freedom anymore. Requiring anyone to wear a smart device like this on their waist means they don’t have no privacy.Well, if you put it that way, i can see the problem.However, i don’t see any other way to change people’s habits. This is just a friendly minder.It’s more than a reminder. It makes things public and puts pressure on people to meet their requirements. It will force people to work out even if they don’t want to. They won’t be any choice.No, it hasn’t had to be that way. We can still be flexible.That’s not the point. People hate the idea that the company knows everything they do. It’s bad enough that they had to communicate with each other at night and on weekends.What if we made the use of the APP an option?If we do that, it still puts pressure on people to use it. I think it’s best that we get rid of this idea. I’m all forward standers but what about freedom and creativity. If we go ahead with this policy, I think we will lose some of our best people. There are otherways to deal with health issues.Such as… What’s your suggestion?Give extra holidays to people who take fewer sick dates.No, that wouldn’t work. It will put pressure on peopl e to come to work sick and get everyone else sick too. If someone is sick, I’d rather that they stay at home.Then here is run out of idea. Why let your department manager handle it? They are the one who decide on promotions of bonuses. Setting everything in stone in the form of policies can be very dangerous. (政策面前设置无法改变的一切是很危险的)Ok. I’ll consider it. But now I’ll give up the idea of using this APP. Please let people know that we are listing to them. We do care about our employees.I’ll. I’m sure than peop le will appreciate it. It shows that you have faith in them.Thanks, i appreciate your advice.They think it gives the company too much control over their lives.He would rather have sick people at home than come to work.L6 Unit 1-3 reading 伤病预防、高血压和心脏病Preventing injuryExercise and a certain amount of strenuous(紧张的) physical activity are important for maintaining good health. However, before engaging in them, it’s important to know how to prevent injuries from occurring, especially for athletes and elderly people. Injuries can be minimized by doing a proper warm up. This consists of increasing your heart rate and blood flow to all part of your body. A good way to do this is through a series of static stretches(静态拉伸) followed by a series of dynamic stretches, which are done while moving.Using the proper equipment is essential, especially in contact sports.To protect the head, for example, well designed helmets can greatly reduce the incidence of concussions(脑震荡).Concussions are caused when the soft, jello-like(果冻状) brain slams into(用力撞上) the hard human skull(颅骨).Research shows that repeated concussions can have serious consequence.Compression sportswear (紧身服)is another way to reduce the risk of injury, especially muscle injuries. More and more athletes are using them because their usecan also speed up muscle recovery when an injury occurs.Another contributing factor in sports injuries is fatigue(疲劳). Doctors believe that fatigue is an important warning sign that the body has reached its limits. When fatigued it is more difficult for the body to protect itself. Therefore, it’s a good idea to stop an activity at the first sign of fatigue. Rest periods, even for professional athletes, can prevent serious injuries from occurring.Understanding injuries and the body reaction to them can help people cope with the problems that accompany physical exercise. The support and understanding of coaches, teammates and family can be a critical factor in prevention and recovery. Once an injury occurs, it’s too late to prevent it, and recovery can take a long time. For the elderly, a simple fall can be fatal(致命的).A fatal accident or injury is one that causes death.Blood pressure and stoke.A large international study has found that then risk factors account for 90% of all the risk of stroke. Of that list, 5 risk factors usually related to lifestyle are responsible for a full 80% of stroke risk. According to the researchers these risk factors- high blood pressure, smoking , abdominal(腹部的) obesity, diet and physical activity - are modifiable and can be controlled.The findings come from a study of 3000 people who had had strokes and an equal number of healthy individuals with no history of stroke. This study also includes a brain scan of all participating stroke survivors, according to the researchers.Across the board(全部), high blood pressure was the most important fact, accounting for one-third of all stroke risk. Blood pressure, it was noted, plays a major role in both forms of stroke: ischemic, the most common form(caused by blockage of a brain blood vessel), and hemorrhagic(出血性) or bleeding stroke(中风), in which a blood vessel in the brain bursts(爆发).Blood pressure is easily measured, and there are lost of treatments. Lifestyle modifications to control it include increasing physical activity and reducing salt intake. The other lifestyle risk factors are modifiable as well. High intake of fish and fruits, for example, is associated with a lower risk of stroke.Many of the same risk factors have been reported in other studies, but this is the first stroke risk study to include both low- and middle-income participants in developing countries. The study confirms that high blood pressure is the leading cause。

It is a beautiful, rotating sphere. The side facing the sun is in daylight. The side facing away from the sun is in darkness. For example, when it’s daytime in the US, it’s nighttime in China. In fact, there’s a 12 hour time difference between Boston and Shanghai. When it’s midnight in Shanghai, it’s noon in Boston.The earth rotates from west to east. To know which direction is east and west, watch the sun. The Sun travels through the sky from east to west. The sun comes up in the east and goes down in the west. Again, this is because the Earth rotates. It takes 24 hours for the earth to make a complete rotation. And that is the length of one day.Because of the Earth’s rotation, the Earth is divided into time zones. Some countries, such as the US, have several time zones. When it’s 10 am in New York, it’s 7 am in San Francisco. Europe and the US are separated by several time zones. When it’s 5 pm in Paris, it’s 11 am in Boston. So there’s a six hour difference between Paris and Boston. One large country, China, has just one time zone for the whole country. As a result, at the same time, some parts of the country can be dark and other parts can be light.As you travel around the Earth, the time changes. The time of a day depends on your location on the planet. When you travel east to west, you may cross several time zones. For example, if you travel from Beijing to Los Angeles, you cross 8 time zones. That means when it’s noon on Sunday in China, it’s 8 pm on Saturday in Los Angeles. For travelers, this means it can be very difficult to sleep after a long flight. The clock may say it’s 8 pm, but for your body it’s noon. This is called jet lag.Kim is popular Korean actress.

流利说_懂你英语_Level4_UnitLevel4 Unit2 Part1 Listening - Extinction Events 1The Earth was formed about 4.6 billion years ago.The first life appeared about a billion years later.The first plants didn't appear until around 2 billion years ago.Until about 580 million years ago, life forms were small and microscopic. Since that time, life has evolved into many different types, or species. However, scientists estimate that more than 99% of them are now extinct.There have been several extinction events in the history of the Earth.In an extinction event many life forms, or species of life, die out.The causes of mass extinction events are unsolved mysteries.These events are not predictable and can happen at any time.Scientists think that some of them were started by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions.Events like these can change the global conditions that life depends on.One major extinction event happened about 66 million years ago.That event may have been started by a large asteroid that hit the Earth.As a result, the dinosaurs and about half of all species on the planet died out. When the asteroid hit the earth, it started a chain of events.A chain of events is a series of events linked together, like a chain.This particular chain of events happened over a period ofmonths and years.When the asteroid hit the Earth, it caused a huge cloud of dust to enter the atmosphere.This cloud of dust blocked the sun and darkened the Earth for many months.Without enough sunlight, plants and plant-eating animals quickly died.With the deaths of so many plants and animals, the food chain collapsed.This led to the deaths of many more species.Mass extinction events have played an important part in the evolution of life.In fact, some extinction events have helped to accelerate evolution.For example, some mammals lived through the age of the dinosaurs, but they couldn't compete.When the dinosaurs were removed, the mammals were able to compete more successfully.Once they could compete, mammals evolved to a higher state.Without extinction events, perhaps we wouldn't be here today.Level4 Unit2 Part1 Listening - Extinction Events 2Scientists estimate that there have been at least 5 mass extinctions in the last 540 million years.They also believe that we have entered a new extinction event.Species are becoming extinct at a much faster rate than before.Instead of asteroids or volcanic eruptions, the current eventis the result of human activities.Human activities, for example, have led to global warming.Global warming is the result of an increase in carbon gases in our atmosphere. These gases trap heat from the sun, so the Earth is getting warmer.As a result, sea levels are rising and weather patterns are changing.In addition, we humans are destroying the habitats of many plants and animals. Cutting down forests and polluting rivers destroys the habitats of many forms of life.There is no longer any doubt that this is happeningSpecies of life are disappearing at an increasing rate.Global temperatures are rising and weather patterns are changing.Scientists are warning us that fast action is necessary to save our future.If we don't act, we may go the way of the dinosaurs.(This new extinction event is caused by humans.)Level4 Unit2 Part1 Vocabulary - Body SystemsThe body's circulatory system includes the heart and blood vessels.The heart pumps blood to all parts of the body through a network of arteries and veins.The digestive system breaks down and absorbs food into the body.It supplies the energy that the body needs for growth and repair.After digestion, excess food is turned into waste and eliminated from the body. The nervous system includes the brain, spinal cord and nerves.This is your body's control system.It controls your muscles and organs, including your circulatory and digestive systems.The respiratory system includes the nose and lungs.It brings air and oxygen into the body and removes carbon dioxide.The lungs are where oxygen enters the bloodstream and carbon dioxide is removed.The immune system protects the body against infections and diseases.Sneezing and fever are examples of how the immune system works.If an infection invades the body, the immune system attacks it.(The blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart are called arteries.)(The digestive system is where food is broken down and absorbed into the body.)(The nervous system regulates your heartbeat and digestion.) Level4 Unit2 Part1 Vocabulary - Great DiscoveriesThe controlled use of fire allowed people to cook food and survive in the colder climates.Fire provided light so that people could work and socialize for longer hours.With the invention of agriculture, people could grow food and settle into communities.By growing food, people could spend less time hunting and more time for other things such as art.The domestication of animals allowed people to raise and use animals for food and work.By raising herds of animals such as sheep, humans had a regular supply of meat and clothing.The strength of animals such as horses and oxen was used for work and transportation.The development of tools and machines has resulted in more efficient manufacturing and construction.With better tools and machines, work can be done with fewer people and at much lower costs.The development of science and engineering has improved many things, including communications.With an understanding of electricity, telephones and radios allow people to communicate over long distances.(Science and engineering have changed the way we communicate with each other.)(With the development of agriculture, people had more time for other activities.)(The use of machines has reduced the number of people needed to make things.)Level4 Unit2 Part1 Dialogue - Smartphone AddictionI took a vacation last night.What are you talking about?Where did you take your vacation?I didn't go anywhere.I just spent an evening without my smartphone.How was it?It was great. I got a real magazine and read it with no interruption.It was very peaceful.Yes, I haven't done that in a long time.You know what?I'm beginning to hate smartphones.Really? but you can't live without one, right?Yes, that's the problem.These things are changing the way people live.Yes, I just saw a documentary about that.A husband was complaining to his wife that she was spending too much time on her smartphone.What happened? Did they get a divorce?You guessed it. In the end, they got a divorce.It's a bit ironic, don't you think?Smartphone were supposed to bring people together, but they are pulling people apart.Yes, you are right.Hey, just a minute. I've got a message on my smartphone, and it can't wait. Level4 Unit2 Part1 Dialogue - Rude Boss Hey, wake up and get back to work.What's wrong with you?I'm on my break sir, and I have a bad headache.Well, we are not paying you to sleep.If you're going to sleep, sleep someplace else.Yes, sir, sorry, it won't happen again.It had better not.Just a minute.Don't talk to me like that.What did you say?You hurt me. you don't have to treat people like that.Well, if you don't like it, I suggest you leave.OK, I will. I've had enough of you.I'll get a job somewhere else.(The manager treats the employees in a threatening manner.)(The employee treats the manager respectfully.)Level4 Unit2 Part2 Listening - Point of View 1This man is holding a piece of fruit in his hand.The piece of fruit is either an orange or an apple.We can’t see which it is because we can’t see ins ide the box.The probability that it is an orange is equal to the probability that it is an apple. It may be an apple, and it may be an orange.It’s got to be one or the other.It can’t be anything else.Now let’s look at it from the man’s point of view.From his point of view, the probabilities are different.From his point of view, the probability that he has an orange is 100% or 0%. That’s because he knows what he has.For him there is no uncertainty.If he has an orange, the probability is 100%.If he doesn’t have an orange, the probability is 0%.He either has it or he doesn’t.From our point of view, the probability that he has an orange is 50%.From his point of view, the probability that he has an orange is 100% or 0%.So the probability depends on your point of view.。
