Level3 Unit3 Part1 Listening - Life & Conditions 1 There are many forms of life on Earth, including human beings.Life exists in a variety of conditions.Some forms of life live in a watery environment, like the oceans. Other forms of life can be found in very dry areas like deserts. However, for any form of life to exist, conditions must be right. When conditions are not right, that form of life will become extinct. To become extinct means to die out completely.Conditions must be right for life to exist.Millions of years ago there were forms of life that no longer exist. When conditions changed, these forms of life died out.One extinction event happened about 250 million years ago.This was the largest extinction event of all time.Many forms of life became extinct.96% of all life in the oceans died out.Most insects also became extinct.This event happened over a period of several million years.The causes of this extinction event are still unknown.Possible causes include large volcanic eruptions and global warming. Some scientists believe that there were several causes.They believe that a series of events caused the extinctions. Scientists are working to better understand what really happened.Level3 Unit3 Part1 Listening - Life & Conditions 2In modern times we humans face changing conditions.For humans to live, we need clean air and clean water.Pollution is now a growing problem around the world.Pollution poisons the air and water that we depend on.Polluted air makes people sick and afraid to go outside.Polluted water poisons our food supply.As a result, we never know which foods are safe to eat.Human beings cannot live in a poisoned environment.Therefore, pollution is a major threat to our existence.Humans need temperatures to be in a comfortable range.To be in a comfortable range means to be neither too hot nor too cold.With global warming, global temperatures are rising.As temperatures rise, the polar icecaps will melt.As the polar icecaps melt, ocean levels will rise.Areas of some countries will soon be under water.People will be forced to relocate from flooded areas.In nature, even small changes can sometimes have large effects.It’s difficult to predict what’s going to happen.The entire ecosystem that we depend on is changing.Some of these changes are irreversible.Irreversible changes cannot be undone.Let’s hope that humans are smart enough to understand how the world is changin g. With more understanding, we can make better choices about what to do.We can face the challenges of pollution and global warming.We need to do this before it’s too late.This planet Earth is our only home and we need to protect it.Level3 Unit3 Part1 Vocabulary - Forms of LifeMammals are covered by hair or fur, have a backbone and are warm-blooded.All female mammals produce milk for their young.Reptiles are covered by scales and include snakes, lizards and turtles.Reptiles have a backbone and are cold-blooded, which means they often rely on external sources of heat.Birds are covered by feathers and are warm-blooded.Most birds can fly and many types of birds migrate great distances.Most insects such as ants and bees have a small, 3-part body with 3-pairs of legs.Some insects, like mosquitoes, spread diseases that cause the deaths of many humans.Unlike animals, plants get the energy that they need from the sun.Plants convert light energy, along with carbon-dioxide and water, into chemical energy.Level3 Unit3 Part1 Vocabulary – InstrumentsScales and rulers are used to measure weight and length.Units of weight include kilograms and pounds, and units of length include centimeters and inches.These instruments are used to observe very large and very small objects.Telescopes are used by astronomers, and microscopes are used by biologists and doctors.These appliances are used in the kitchens of almost every home.Stoves are used to heat food and refrigerators are used to keep foods cool or cold.Household tools like these are used to build and repair things.Hammers are used to pound in nails and screwdrivers are used to turn a screw.Level3 Unit3 Part1 Dialogue - Dating AnniversaryDo you know what day it is today?What do you mean?Is it a special day?Oh, so you don’t remember.Remember what?What’s so special?It’s our anniversary.We started dating a year ago today.Oh, really?

For me, it’s just the opposite.Everything seems like a wonderful miracle.Doesn’t that frighten you a bit?The universe is so large and we are so small.What I realize is how little we understand.We just need to appreciate our lives and not get lost.Sometimes being lost isn’t so bad.Do you know the expression, ignorance is bliss?Sure, I’ve heard it many times.To be ignorant is to be happy.Maybe it’s true.Maybe it’s best not to think or know too much.No, that’s not for me.I want to understand as much as possible.That’s why I became a scientist.Well, I respect your choice, but it’s not for me.If understanding is painful, I’d rather not understand.Level3 Unit3 Part3 Listening - Harry's Business Trip 1 Harry is on a business trip.Yesterday he was supposed to fly from San Francisco to Shanghai. However, things didn’t turn out the way they were supposed to.In fact, nothing went the way it was supposed to.Everything went w rong and he didn’t get on his flight.As a result, he is still in San Francisco.The following is a summary of what happened.Yesterday morning he got up as usual and had breakfast.Everything seemed to be fine and he was looking forward to the trip.He was just about to check out of his hotel when he felt a pain.It was a pain in his lower back.It was a dull pain at first -- not too bad.So he didn’t worry about it and checked out of the hotel.Then he got on the shuttle bus to the airport.About halfway to the airport, the pain in his back started to get worse.It was a growing pain, and he was beginning to worry.Soon it was difficult for him to sit in his seat.The pain was getting worse.He wanted to lie down.He started to sweat and breathe quickly.He was in real pain then.On a scale of 1 to 10, the pain was an 8.When the bus got to the airport, the bus driver helped him get off.It was difficult for him to walk, but he finally made it to the terminal. Inside the terminal, he went to th e men’s bathroom.He went to the toilet, but that didn’t help.Instead of improving, he felt dizzy and he threw up.By now he was wet from all his sweating.He knew he couldn’t get on his flight.Level3 Unit3 Part3 Listening - Harry's Business Trip 2 He used his phone to call the airline.He explained the situation and cancelled his reservation.Then he called 911 for emergency help.911 is the emergency number to call for help in the United States.An ambulance arrived about 10 minutes after he called.By then he was in so much pain that he could barely walk.Once inside the ambulance, they gave him oxygen to help him breathe.But the pain was still terrible.Then they drove him into a hospital near the airport.Luckily, the hospital was on his health plan.That means his health insurance is supposed to pay for everything.Medical costs in the United States are very high.When he arrived at the hospital, he was taken to the emergency room.After some tests, a doctor told him he had a kidney stone.It was a very small stone, but it caused a lot of pain.It was passing through a small tube in his body, from his kidney to his bladder. The pain would go away once it got to his bladder.Until then, he had to take pain medicine to reduce the pain.Harry didn’t have to stay at the hospital for very long.With the pain medicine, the pain went away very quickly.He took a taxi back to his hotel and checked in for another night.Then he called the airline and made a reservation for another flight.The flight will leave tomorrow.Until then he’ll just rest in his hotel.There may even be a good movie to watch.So, when you're travelling, please be prepared for emergencies.Make sure you have medical insurance.You never know when something like this can happen to you!So be prepared!Level3 Unit3 Part3 Vocabulary - Sources of EnergySolar energy is one of the cleanest and most plentiful sources of energy.Solar power depends on sunlight, so in cloudy weather and at night, no power is generated.Wind energy is non-polluting but is only useful in places where there is a lot of wind.Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical power.Nuclear energy is efficient and doesn’t produce carbon gases as a waste product.The dangers of nuclear power include deadly radioactive waste products.A major source of energy comes from the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil.When we burn fossil fuels, waste gases such as CO2 are produced.Fossil fuels remain the largest source of energy for most countries.Hydropower comes from the kinetic energy of falling water.Output is reliable and can be regulated to meet the demand, except during periods of drought.(Dams are expensive to build and affect wildlife such as fish.)Level3 Unit3 Part3 Vocabulary - Types of wordsHere are some different types of words in English.Words that are nouns or pronouns are used to represent objects.A noun or a pronoun can be a person, an animal or a thing, including an idea.Verbs are used to express actions, such as to sit down or stand up.We also use verbs to express relationships, such as to love someone or to own something.We use adjectives to describe objects, such as a tall building.Adjectives are used with nouns and pronouns, but not with verbs.We use adverbs to describe actions, such as to run fast or to walk slowly.Adverbs express the quality of an action, such as how well or poorly something is done.We use conjunctions to connect things or actions, such as to read and write.Conjunctions include words such as and, or, because, but and yet.Level3 Unit3 Part3 Dialogue - Good News & Bad News Hey, I’ve got some news, some good news and some bad news.OK, give me the bad news first.We're moving to a new office.When is this going to happen?We are supposed to move at the end of next month.How far away is the new office?We are not sure yet, but it will mean a longer commute for most of us.The new office will probably be on the other side of the city.The commute is already too long f or me and I’m not going to change flats.We just bought one.Anyway, what’s the good news?The good news is that we are going to expand.The company is growing so we are gonna hire more people.Well, I’ve got some news for you too.I hope it’s a good n ews.Well, that depends on your point of view.I’m planning to start my own business.Why? I thought you were happy working here.I like the work, but I’m not learning anything new.I think I can do better on my own.I was planning to wait a few months.But now that the office is moving, I’m ready to make the change. What does your wife think?She’s in favor of it and she'll help me.She’s already designing a website.We’ll work from home at first.So you really are serious about this?You’re taking a big risk.Most new businesses fail.Yes, I know, but if I don’t do it now, I never will.I’m tired of working for others.I know what you mean.Don’t tell anyone about this, OK?It’s still a secret.Sure, I won’t say anything to anybody.I’m sure this will come as a surprise to everyone.I’m sure changing offices will also come as a surprise to people. This is exactly why I want to work on my own.I don’t like these kinds of surprises.You are right about that.When are you gonna let people know?I’ll make the announcement at the beginning of next month.Level3 Unit3 Part4 Listening - Leonardo da Vinci 1 Leonardo da Vinci is one of the greatest geniuses of all time.He was a painter, an architect, an engineer and a scientist.He was born in Vinci, Italy in 1452.Vinci is a town just outside of the great Italian city, Florence.His name, da Vinci, means "of Vinci".Leonardo’s father was a lawyer and landowner, and his mother was a peasant. Leonardo’s parents were never married to each oth er.Leonardo lived with his mother until he was around 5 years old.When he was 5, he moved into the home of his father.By then his father had married a 16-year-old girl.Leonardo’s mother married another man and moved to another town.She had many more children after that, with several different men.In the end, Leonardo had more than 15 half-sisters and brothers.As a young man, Da Vinci didn’t go to school.He was educated at home in reading, writing and mathematics.In other subjects, he was mostly self-educated.He had access to books at his father’s home.Leonardo spent a lot of time outdoors and developed a strong interest in nature. He loved to observe things, especially birds.He was also interested in the properties of water.Level3 Unit3 Part4 Listening - Leonardo da Vinci 2 Leonardo’s early drawings and paintings demonstrated a rare talent.His father and his father’s friends recognized his talent and encouraged him.When he was 15, he was sent to Florence.In Florence, he became an apprentice to a famous master painter.For the next few years, Leonardo worked at his master’s workshop.It wasn’t long before his ability surpassed that of his master.Some people say that his master became jealous of Leonardo’s great talent.They say that the master vowed to never paint again!In 1478, with his father’s help, Leonardo set up his own workshop.In 1482, he entered the service of a powerful man in the city of Milan.This man was the Duke of Milan.For the next few years Leonardo designed buildings, machinery and weapons of war.Weapons were important because Italy was constantly at war during this period.From 1485 to 1490, Leonardo produced designs for a variety of weapons.In his notes, he predicted the development of advanced weapons such as submarines and flying machines.In 1499, the French invaded Italy and Leonardo left Milan.Altogether, Leonardo spent 17 years in Milan.During this period, he spent much of his time studying nature.He dissected bodies, both human and animal, to study and illustrate anatomy.His detailed illustrations are masterpieces.Leonardo filled many notebooks with drawings and ideas.He wrote backwards so you need a mirror to read them.After 1500, Leonardo spent time in a number of Italian cities.He worked very slowly, and the range of his interests was very wide.As a result, Leonardo left many paintings and projects unfinished.One painting that he did finish was the Mona Lisa, one of the world’s most famous paintings.People are still interested in this painting, 500 years after he painted it.Though there are many theories, nobody knows who the woman in the painting really was.In 1516 Leonardo left Italy for good when the French King, Francis I, offered him a position.There, he had the freedom to paint and draw whatever he wanted.Leonardo died in 1519, at the age of 67.Some say that the French King, who had become a close friend, was with him when he died.He was buried in a church which was destroyed during the French Revolution.The exact location of his remains is unknown.Level3 Unit3 Part4 Vocabulary - Sources of PollutionWaste water and carbon gases from farm animals are bad for the environment. Animals wastes and other chemicals flow into the ground and pollute water supplies.Exhaust gases from automobiles are a major cause of air pollution and global warming.As a result, many companies are trying to produce more efficient and cleaner cars.Pesticides and fertilizers are used by farmers to grow crops such as fruits and vegetables.These chemicals pollute water supplies when they flow into the ground or rivers.Factories like this one allow harmful chemicals to get into the air or water.Companies need to try harder to protect the environment and our health.Nuclear waste products are radioactive and can pollute the environment for thousands of years.They need to be safely transported and stored in a safe place.Level3 Unit3 Part4 Vocabulary - Historical FiguresThe British writer, Jane Austen, was born in England in 1775, one of seven children.She wrote some of the most popular love stories of all time.One of the most famous female rulers in history, Cleopatra had affairs with Julius Caesar and later with Mark Antony.She was known for her great beauty and charming voice.Born in 1756, Mozart composed and performed some of the world’s greatest classical music.He was the youngest of 7 children and by the age of 5 he was already composing music.The son of a king, Alexander the great, was a military leader who created one of the largest empires in the ancient world.As a youth, Alexander was taught by the Greek philosopher Aristotle.Mahatma Gandhi was a 20th century leader who used nonviolent resistance to lead India to independence.Gandhi dedicated his life to the pursuit of truth.Level3 Unit3 Part4 Dialogue - An urgent CallI’d like to speak with Mr. Bennett, please.I’m sorry, but he’s not here right now.Would you like to leave a voice message?It’s urgent that I speak with him.It’s an emergency.Oh, I see.What kind of emergency?It’s very personal so I can’t give you any details.Without more details I’m afraid I can’t give you his number. Give me your number and I’ll let him know about your call. Then maybe he’ll call you back.Would that be okay?Sure, my number is 5834987.It would be great if he could call me within the next half hour.Level3 Unit3 Part4 Dialogue - Setting the Bill That was a great dinner.Here, put away your wallet, I’ll pay the bill.You paid last time, this time is my turn to pay.Hey, you don’t have a job, and I do, let me pay.Thanks for the offer, but I can handle it.Wait, let’s flip for it.Flip for it?

The side facing away from the sun is in darkness. For example, when it’s daytime in US, it nighttime in China. In fact, there’s 12-hour time difference between Bosto n 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 west or east, watch the sun. The sun travels through the sky from east to west.

For example, if you travel from Beijing to Los Angeles, you may cross 8 time zones. That means, when it’s noon on Sunday in China, it 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 8 pm, but for your body, it’s noon. This is called jet lag.Kim is a popular Korean actress.
