21世纪大学英语视听说教程Book 4 unit 1 Part D 听力原文21世纪大学英语视听说教程Book 4 Unit 1 Part D 听力原文Section A1. W: Since when do you read the Sunday Times?M: Since I discovered its big help-wanted section.Q: What can we assume about the man?2. W: This coat I bought l ast week is too big for me. I’d like to exchange it for a smaller one. M: Let me see. The smaller one is only9.95, and this one is 12. Q: Approximately how much money does the shop assistant owe the woman?3. M: It would be nice if these last few days of the vacation were sunny and warm.W: But it’s not what they forecast, is it?Q: What does the woman imply about the weather?4. W: How is Susan’s lab experiment coming along?M: I’m not sure, why don’t we go and have a look?Q: What does the man mean?5. W: You didn’t seem terribly enthusiastic about the football game.M: You must be joking. If I had shouted any louder, I’d have lostmy voice.Q: What did the man think of the football game?6. W: Teddy, how are you finding life on campus this year? M: Much the same as last.Q: What does Teddy mean?7. W: You know, the Browns have invested all their money in stocks. M: They may think that’s a wise move, but that’s the last thing I’d do.Q: What’s the man’s opinion about the Browns investment?8. M: Hello, this is Mike Johnson at the bank. Is Peter there? W:Not yet, Mike. He phoned me from the office 5 minutes ago to say that he was stopping for ahaircut on his way home.Q: Where does Peter plan to go on his way home?Conversation 1M: Did y ou watch the “Television Special” about the adhesive features of barnacles last night?W: No, I missed it. What did you learn about them?M: That they glue themselves to rocks in the ocean, shortly after birth. They also stay in thesame place forever.W: Right. Have you ever tried removing one of those things? It would be easier to chip the rockaway than to get the barnacle off.M: Exactly! And that’s why scientists are trying to figure out what the barnacle’s glue is made of.It’s considered one o f the strongest adhesives in nature.W: And it would have the advantage of being able to work on wet surfaces, too. M: Precisely. And because it’s a natural protein, it probably wouldn’t be harmful to people likeso many synthetic glues in use today.W: Think of all the ways doctors and dentists could use such glue. Mending broken bones, fastening false teeth.M: There could be countless uses. Scientists hope to learn soon exactly what the glue is made ofso that people can make use of it.9.

So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married sixmonths ago, and like many young people these days, they arestruggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a two-week course for 280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-timejob at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for 420. “I was deeply upset about it.Now I’ve finished a car repair course, and I should be able to fix the car by myself.”John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the US aredoing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.16. Why did John Ross decide to build their furniture instead of buying it?17. According to Jim, who should be able to fix his car?18. For those who don’t have time to take a course, how can they learn to become “do-it-yourselfers”?Passage 2Most of us spend high school dissecting frogs and feeling awkward at the occasional dance, but a small group of students in Spain got to dosomething far cooler with their educational time: they sent a digital camera into space. A teacher and four students from IES La Bisbal School inCatalonia, Spain bought a 60 balloon and fixed an 80 digital camera to it, then sent it up into the sky to capture some high-altitude pictures.The team only wanted to see if they could get their homemade weather balloon to fly to 30,000 feet, which is the altitude that most commercial aircraft fly at. But the balloon just keptclimbing until it was 20 miles above the Earth, at the very edge of space. Tracking the balloon’s progress using meteorological sensors and Google Earth, the team kept track of atmospheric conditions and snapped a handful of amazing pictures.The four students and their teacher completed the experiment in February 2009. The teambuilt the electronic sensor components themselves, then placed them, along with the camera, into a protective housing before releasing therig into the sky.The balloon rose to an altitude of over 100,000 feet before falling back to the ground. The team traveled over 10 km to find the balloon and equipment. They were amazed to find that the equipment was stillemitting a signal, despite being exposed to some extremely harsh conditions.19. What did four students in Spain do with their educational time?20. What’s the altitude that most commercial aircraft fly at?21. When did the team complete the experiment?22. After traveling 10 km to find the balloon and equipment, whatwas the team amazed to find?Passage 3Despite controversy, direct-to-consumer genetic tests are becoming more popular. This kind of genetic tests is more like a do-it-yourself diagnosis. It is becoming almost as easy as taking a home pregnancy test. People can use their credit card to order a set of tools on the Internet, use a brush to remove a few cheek cells, return the tools and receive a report via e-mail. DTC tests costfrom a few hundred to a few thousand US dollars, and are availablefor more than 800 conditions ranging from breast to cancer.The US population may be particularly ready for DTC testing becauseit has a do-it-yourself ethic and is accustomed to paying out of pocket for healthcare services. Companies that offer genetic tests are enthusiastic about the prospects of widespread DTC testing. They argue that genetic testing is no different from non-DNA tests. But not everyone is thrilled about the ease with which consumers can takegenetic tests. Some people worried DTC genetic testing poses dangers to the public. Patients may experience psychological harm since they might not understand what the results mean to them.The lack of regulation in the Internet may also result in a factthat the Web gives you information that could be very misleading andpotentially harmful to you. However, many people are comfortable with the lack of regulation as long as a doctor can help them. So what does the future hold for DTC genetic testing? We cannot expect widespread do-it-yourself screening for genetic disease in the years ahead. But we can predict a growth in DTC genetic testing for certain diseases and fully expect that this kind of technology is going to be with us.23. What do we know about direct-to-consumer genetic testing?24. What is one of the reasons that some people worry about the DTC genetic testing? 25. How is the future of DTC genetic testing?Section C26. available27. unique28. Specializing in29.

being confident and you're being clear in your answers and listening carefullyNot fidgeting（坐立不安，烦躁）and being confident are the most important things in a job interview.Writing a thank-you note is the most important thing you want to do after a job interview/And go in there with a firm handshake.Listening in"It's not enough to ask what successful people are like...It is only by asking where they are from that we can unravel the logic behind who succeed and who doesn't"This is the basic idea of an intriguing book called Outliers, by the American journalist Malclom Gladwell.The book explores the factors which contribute to people who are extremely successful in their careers, for example, the role the family , culture and friend play.Gladwell examines the causes of why the majority of Canada ice hokey players are born in the first few months of the calender year,what the founder of Microsoft Bill Gates did to achieve his extraordinary success,and why the Beatles managed to redefine the whole of popular music in the 1960s.Gladwell points out that the youth hockey league in Canada recruits from January the first, so that players born early in the year are bigger,stronger and better athletes than others born later in the year.And because they have this advantage at the start of their sports career,they're given extra coaching,and so there's a greater chance that they'll be picked for an elite hockey team in the future.He calls this phenomenon accumulative advantage（积累优势）,a bit like the idea that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.Success depends on the process by which talented athletes are identified as much as it does on their own abilities.Another aspect which contributes to success is the 10000 hour rule.Great success demands an enormous amount of time for practise and training.For example,the Beatles performed live in Hamburg Germany more than 1200times over four years,much more than the 10000 hours Gladwell claim is necessary for great success.So by the time they returned to England,they had developed their talente and sounded completely different from any other group.In the same way,Bill Gates had thousands of hours' worth of programming because he had access to a computer at his high school.He also became a teenager just at the right time to take advantage of the latest developments in computer technology.Outliers has met with extraordinary sucess,matched only by Gladwell's own career for 25 years in journalism.As a result, many citics have seen it as an autobiography, in which the writer appears to be apologizing for his own personal achievements.But the ides that you have to be born at the right moment,in the right place and in the right family,and then you have to work really hard is a thought-provoking way of revisiting our traditional view of genius and great achievement.It's certainly worth reading,as long as you don't take it too seriously.Listening in 2P:Hi,we are talking about typical working hours in the US and in Brazil.Eric...um...you're from the States,tell me what are the typical workinghours in the States?E:Er...traditionally people go to work at 9o'clock in the morning and they finish at about 5,so sort of a 9to 5.P:And,and Penny I...I know you're English but you work in Brazil,what are the hours in Brazil?Penny:Um varies slightly,sometimes you can start um on an early shift,say,8o'clock in the morning to 5 um or 9 until 6.But in Brazil often people will work longer hours than this.P:Right,right ok.And what kind of clothes do you wear?I mean do you dress up formally or in a relaxed way?E:It used to be that you would wear a jacket and tie to work for...for men but er nowadays an open shirt is ok.You don't necessarily have to wear a tie and sometimes on a Friday you can wear a pair of jeans to work.P:Oh,right the dress down Friday?E:The dress down Friday that's right.P:Does that still happen?E:Yes, yes sure it does.P:And how about in Brazil?Penny:Um, it's fairly casual,quite informal,um I mean you need to look neat and tidy obviously,but you,you have your own choice rely on whatyou would wear,there are no rules and regulations.It's important to look smart but comfortable.P:Right,yeah do you have meal breaks or is that...you just fit in meals when you can or...?E:Lunch,lunch is usually an hour sometimes a little shorter if you have to do a lot of work from your desk.P:Yeah,how about Brazil?Penny:That's the same, about an hour.P:And,and with overtime,I mean,if you...I mean you're obviously contracted to do a certain number of hours.What happens if you do more thanthe hours that you...that's in you...that are in your contract?E:I have to make a fairly um strict record of my hours so if I go beyond 5 o'clock on most days I put in for overtime.P:Right.E:And it's...the first hour is one of overtime and then there's I think 15minute periods after that.So I could work an hour and a quarter.P:And you'd be paid for the quarter hours?E:That's right,by the quarter hour.P:How about in Brazil?Penny:It's,it's a lot looser in Brazil actually.We we often end up doing overtime but unfortunately not paid.P: Fine.That's hard luck.And what about holidays,what about in the States?You don't have much holidays in the States do you?E:No.When you start at a company you get two weeks holiday or two weeks vacation as we say...P:YeahE:Um then it's usually not until you've been at the company for about five ears that they give you another week.So you get three weeks after you've been there for five years.P:And what about in Brazil?Penny:Um it's quite good actually-30days.P:Sounds very generous.Penny:Yeah I can pop back to...P:Is that 30 working days or 30 days in total?Penny:That's 30 working daysP:Wow,that'sPenny:Yes,yeah it's a good deal.P:What about retirement?I know it's a long way of there!When do you retire?E:Generally speaking it's at 65.P:And the same for women.E:Um it's I think a little sooner than that for women.Women I think 62or 63.P;Right ,good.And in Brazil is it similar?Penny:Similar to the States.It's um after 60 for women.65 for men,or if you've clocked up about 30 or 35 years of service then you can retire after that.P:Right and when...do you have a pay day?When is pay day?E:Um,well ,we gt paid twice a month,so we get paid at the beginning of the month and then we get paid in the middle of the month at the 15th give or take(大约).P:Yeah,and what about in Brazil?Penny:I think it all depends which company you're working for.For the one I am working for right now I get paid twice a month but when I began,with a different company that was once a month,so,it varies.P:And are there any company benefits that you have in the States?Do you have a company car or a pension?E:Yeah,we get a company car.We're able to...we lease a car in effect but it's a company car that we get for 18 months to two years and then we...we can move on to another model from that.There's a fairly good pension scheme,that's still working,and hospitalization as well.P:Oh,that's importantE:Yeah,a health plan through work is very important.P:Right.And what about in Brazil?Penny:Yeah,excellent benefits like that.Well I mean it does depend on the company and the status of your or your job but you might get a car,living accommodation,school for the children,they'll pay for your lunch,travel passes,gasoline,health insurance,all sorts of benefitsactually it's very good.P:Sounds very good,with the holiday and all those benefits it sounds a great place to work.Unit

There's a new biography（自传）of Charles Dickens which I'm reading.Andy: Sounds good-his books are always on TV.Janet: You see I'm studying Dickens at university, and I noticed it in the bookshop last week. It's really interesting.Joe: OK, tell us more.Janet: Well, it's a description of the London locations where he set many of his books like Oliver Twist and David Copperfield.Andy: Sounds right up your street（拿手的）!Joe Well done, Janet. Maybe you can show Andy how to plan the feature. OK, that's it everyone. Let's get to it!Conversation 2Janet: What's the matter with Joe today?Andy: No idea. He's a bit like that sometimes. He gets annoyed with me, but I don't really know why.Janet: He wasn't being at all fair. How often does he get like this?Andy: Well, I suppose it's not very often. But sometimes he really gets on my nerves（使某人心烦意乱）.Janet: Don't let it get to you. He's probably got too much work, and he's stressed.Andy: Well, he should keep his problems away from the studio. Anyway, you're the expert on Dickens, tell me something about him.Janet: Well, Charles Dickens was one of the most popular novelists in 19th century Britain. Many of his novels first appeared in magazines, in short episodes. Each one had a cliffhanger at the end that made people want to read the next episode（集，一集）.Andy: And was he a Londoner?Janet: He was born in Portsmouth but his family moved to London when he was ten years old.Andy: And he set most of his stories in London, didn't he?Janet: That's right. He knew the city very well.Andy: Whereabouts in London are his stories set?Janet: Around the Law Courts in the centre of London. He worked as a court reporter and many of the real life stories he heard in court inspired some of most famous characters in his novels.Andy: I think some of his stories take place south of the river?Janet: That's right, especially around Docklands. The thing was…Dickens was asocial commentator（社会评论员）as much as he was a novelist-his stories describe the hardship, the poverty, and crime which many Londoners experienced in the 19th century. It makes mewant to read some Dickens again. Maybe I'll just go shopping for a copy of Great Expectations.Andy: Anyway, you did me a huge favour. That was a real brainwave（突然想到的妙计，灵感）to suggest the new biography.Janet: Cheer up Andy. It wasn't your fault.Andy: No, it's OK, I'll get over it. Go on, off you go and enjoy your shopping!Outside viewBritish people read a lot. They read books, newspapers and magazines. And of course they read text messages on their mobile phones. Sixty-five percent of British people list "reading for pleasure" as a major hobby. A quarter of the population reads more than 20 books each year. So where do these books come from? Well, there are bookshops where you can buy books. And there are lots of public libraries where you can borrow books for free. In this library you can borrow books, but you can also buy a cup of coffee, look at an art exhibition, sit in a quiet studyarea or connect to the Internet. You can also now borrow CDs, videos or DVDs of films and television programmes. Some libraries even let you borrow computer games. There are often reference rooms where you can go to look something up or go to study. Many libraries have also got special rooms with books and photograghs about the historu of the area. Libraries are very important in schools and universities both forstudy and for reading for pleasure. The British Library is one of the world's greatest libraries. The queen opened its new building in 1998. It receives a copy of every book published in Britain, and adds three million new items every year.It's got books of course, but also sound recordings, music, maps, newspapers, and magazines. People predicted that radio, then television, then the Internet will kill reading, but it still a very popular activity.Listening in 1M：So how long has your book group been running?C：Well, let me see, it's over 20years now. I think it's actually one of the oldest books groups around, because it was only about 20years ago that they started to become fashionable in the UK.M：And how often do you have meetings?C：We meet about once every four or five weeks, although we try to avoid meetings in the summer holidays, and during the run-up to（前奏，预备期）Christmas when we all start to get busy with other things.M：And how many members do you have?C：We're ten in all, although it's rare that everyone can attend.M：And what happens during the meeting?C：Well, we usually meet at one of our homes, and we start fairly late, around 8:30, and the host prepares dinner, and sometime during the meal, someone asks "So what did you think of the book?" and that's when the discussion starts.M：It sounds quite informal.C：It is, yes, and sometimes if we haven't enjoyed the book, the meal becomes more important than the discussion. But it's fairly rare that no one likes the book, and it gets quire interesting when opinions about it are divided.M And what sort of books do you read?C：Oh, all kinds, actually, not just novels, although I must admit that being a member of the club makes me read more modern fiction than I might do otherwise. But we also read the classics, you know the novels we all read or should have read 30 years ago, and it's quite good fun to revisit them, to see if our views of the books have changed. We re-read Thomas Hardy recently, and whereas I used to love it when I was a student, this time I thought it was exasperatingly（惹人恼火地）dull. And we read non-fiction. quite a lot of history and travel writing. A couple of the members like poetry, which I don't, but you know, we're tolerant each other's choice, and it gives us a chance to try things we wouldn't usually read.M：And how do you choose the books?C：Well, at the end of the evening the person who hosts the dinner-basically, the cook- has the right to choose the next book.M：And that works OK?C：Yes, although there's quite a lot of stress on choosing something that will earn everyone else's respect. And we've got one member who likes science fiction, so we try not to go to his place too often!Listening in 2Well, thank you for your kind welcome, and for giving me the opportunity to give this brief tour of Literary England. I can't claim it's an authoritative tour, as I'm, not a professional literary specialist. However, I have two amateur passions: one is travel and the other is readingand English literature in particular. And this lecture is a description of different visits I have made to places in Britain and Ireland, chosen specifically for their close links with well-known writers of what we call the classics of English literature.Just to give you an overview of the lecture, I'm going to start in my home town of London, which is also the home of many well-known writers. But I think that the picture we have in our mind of London has been largely fashioned by the work of Charles Dickens and Shakespeare. Dickensian London is illustrated most clearly by his book Oliver Twist, and Shakespeare's London brings to mind the plays written and performed here, such as Romeo and Juliet. We'll also have a look at the memorial of freat British writers, Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey.Then off we go to Oxford, another city rich in its literary history. I'm, going to focus on the greatest of Oxford's literary alumni, JRRTolkien, the professor of English who wrote Lord of the Rings, which is now famous throughout the world because of the recent series offilms.Then we turn south towards the gentle countryside of Hampshire, home of Jane Austen, where her various novels, including Price and Prejudice are set. She also spent a period of her life in the magnificent Georgian city of Bath.Then we turn north to the hills of west Yorkshire where we find Bronte country, so called because it was the home of the three sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte. Perhaps the two best known novels are Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyer, and Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights, also made into successful films.Then up to the north-west, to the stunning land of mountains and lakes which is the Lake District, home of the Lakeland poets. Perhapsits most famous son is William Wordsworth, whose poem "I wandered lonely as a cloud" has been learnt by generations of school children notjust in Britain, but around the English-speaking world.So that's the basic route round Literary England, although I'll be thinking several detours to visit other famous writers whose work contributes to the glory which is English literature. Let's start…Unit3Outside viewLondon has always prided itself on being a little bit different when it comes to fashion. At the catwalk shows, designers showcase the hottestnew trends for journalists and buyers from all over the world. But away from the glamour of designer collections, what do London girls actuallywear? How do they create the affordable, personal style they are famous for? Hannah, who works for a fashion magazine, says Londonstyle is all about mixing and matching. One day can be punk. Next day you can be really girlie（少女般的）. It’s kind of choosing what you wantin your wardrobe. Maybe taking an expensive piece but mixing it with something cheaper or second-hand. I think that is what London girls arereally good at doing. Portobello Road, in the trendy Notting Hill area, is home to one of the most famous markets in London. Here, you name itand people wear it-anything from market stall bargains to to-die-for（令人渴望的）designer labels sold in trendy shops. But how do the capitalwomen view their style? Eclectic. My style is certainly eclectic. It is from Tesco. It is the Catherine Kidston range from Tesco. Sam is matchedher outfit today with a bag she bought in a supermarket. Angela is a fashion stylist. So tell me a little bit about your life. What are you wearingand what would you say your style is? My style tends to change week by week. Today I am wearing some jeans from Uniqlo.IUniqlo jeans and bought about five pairs cos they fit really well. The boots are by Aldo .My T-shirt is from Tooshop. The jacket is a really oldjacket that I bought in the States a few years ago. But um, yeah I mean it just…it does tend to change a lot. Over to New Bond Street, Londondesigner shopping Mecca（胜地）and the style stakes have gone up a little. Some of the most famous and expensive shops in the world can befound here. Shops where you have to ask the price of that handbag…or pair of shoes…then you know you can not really afford it. Natalie, astudent from the city, says being laid back is what gives London style its edge. I don’t know. Everyone says like. French is like and stuff but I think we are quite trendy, we are a bit more casual, but I think we have got a good style going on and everything, a bit laid back,but everyone still looks cool. Seylia works in a jewelry shop. No shabby chic（流行式样，时尚）here. Cashmere scarf from Louboutin, becauseit is cold. Black coat from Prada and a Valentino bag, which is probably as colorful as it gets. Katie is a model and loves how people dress inLondon because everyone has their own individual style. I love London it is so unique.And like everyone’s got their own fash because you can wear whatever and just fit in, it is great. I love London for that. Laura is a student and says she doesninto what she is wearing. Fashion, I wouldn’t really call it fashion. It is just kind of chucked together, basically, what I am comfortable in. Camden is known for its grungy（脏的，乱糟糟）, daring and sometimes outrageous（极不寻常的）styles. Here fashion is whatever you wantit to be. Teenagers don’t hold back much when it comes to choosing clothes. They just want to make personal statement .We are just crazy! We don’t hold back so much. It’s not all about being elegant or something like that. It’s more making a statement, some people. Listening inPresenter: How often do you change your clothes during the day?…Penny: Um I think it all depends on what I’m going to do. Um it might be as many as three times ifPresenter: Three times.…just a Penny: Yes, if I was …if I was going to go to gym, for instance, having dropped the children off at school I’d be wearing an。

Unit 1 The Pursuit of Happiness追求幸福Background Information背景信息What is happiness?什么是幸福？Philosophers and religious thinkers often define happiness in terms of living a good life, or flourishing, rather than simply as an emotion. Happiness in this sense was used to translate the Greek Eudemonia, and is still used in virtue ethics. There has been a transition over time from emphasis on the happiness of virtue to the virtue of happiness.A widely discussed political value expressed in the United States Declaration of Inde pendence of 1776, written by Thomas Jefferson, is the universal right to “the pursuit of happiness.”Happiness is a fuzzy concept and can mean many different things to many people. Part of the challenge of a science of happiness is to identify different concepts of happiness, and where applicable, split them into their components. Related concepts are well-being, quality of life and flourishing. At least one author defines happiness as contentment. Some commentators focus on the difference between the hedonistic tradition of seeking pleasant and avoiding unpleasant experiences, and the eudemonic tradition of living life in a full and deeply satisfying way.The 2012 World Happiness Report stated that in subjective well-being measures, the primary distinction is between cognitive life evaluations and emotional reports. Happiness is used in both life evaluation, as in “How happy are you with your life as a whole?”, and in emotional reports, as in “How happy are you now?”, and people seem able to use happiness as appropriate in these verbal contexts. Using these measures, the World Happiness Report identifies the countries with the highest levels of happiness.How to achieve happiness?If you’re happy it makes life better and you have better rela tionships with people; it changes your outlook on life. Here are some tips for you:Be optimistic. Be hopeful, cheerful and positive about something each day. Push asidenegative thoughts or feelings and focus on something that makes you smile. Always look on the bright side and never give up hope in what you believe in.Smile. Smiling will make you feel better and look better, instantly. Notice how much easier it is to breathe when you smile. Studies have shown that simply smiling boosts your immune system. Smiling creates unity and a glance of a smile automatically softens the heart.Listen to your favorite music. Music can cheer you up, help you relax and relieve stress. It can also inspire and motivate you when you’re feeling low, or frustrated.Stay close to uplifting friends and family. Spending time with positive, uplifting people will make you feel happy and remind you how much you are loved and adored.Be happy with yourself. Never change who you are for anybody; discover what you like and dislike, what you believe in and what issues are of little importance to you to discover who you really are, then be proud to be you and let it show. If people don’t like you the way you are, brush it off and embrace yourself. You are unique and special, enjoy the wonderful things that make you stand out from the crowd.Active Listening & Speaking IScriptWhat Is Happiness?In the last 6 months, more than 1,000 books have been published about it. Universities around the world are teaching on it. For 30 years, scientists have been studying it. Governments are appointing cabinet positions to oversee it. The United Nations named an official day after it. Google analytics prove people are searching for it. In fact, it’s one of humanity’s oldest pursuits. HAPPINESS.We’re wealthier, more educated and live longer than any previous generation. And as a nation, the US is one of the wealthiest, most powerful and technologically advanced. And in the most recent World Happiness Report, the United States ranked 17th. And during the Great Depression, when there was little to be happy about, we were actually 18% less depressed than we are now.We have been taught that hard work equals success which equals happiness. Right? Ha, wrong! Research proves happiness is actually a precursor to success, not the other way around. Did you know? Neuroscience proves that we are hard-wired to perform in our best when we are happy. Study show that happy, positive, optimistic people earn higher incomes; set and achieve more aggressive goals; experience less stress; remain calm in high-pressure situations; are more energetic; recover from illness faster and live longer. Happiness is serious business. When we engage in positive real-life relationships, our bodies release chemicals that actually help reduce anxiety and increase concentration and focus. How you feel and your attitude toward life all stem from your thoughts, actions and where you focus your time and energy.Yet we are constantly surrounded by negativity. If we want things to change, we have tocreate the change and we start by choosing positivity and happiness. Just imagine the possibilities if there were more happy and positive people in this world. A world with more peace, optimism and compassion is possible like a pebble thrown into a pond. It only takes one to create the ripple of happiness. Happiness is so contagious and infectious that one positive person can spread happiness to more than 1,000 people. That means all it takes to create change on a local, regional, state, country, global scale, is one person. And research shows that just by spreading happiness, you actually become happier. You can choose happiness and choose to share it. You can be the catalyst to spread it directly and indirectly.Are you that one? It starts with you, yet it’s bigger than you. Happiness is bold. It is courageous, audacious and challenging. You have the power to choose happiness and to spread it. Join the movement, share the movement. Be the one who makes the difference and live happy.Active Listening & Speaking IIScripts:Gross National HappinessThis is the fourth Dragon King of Bhutan, a beautiful country at the eastern end of the Himalayas. He became king at the age of 17 in 1972. It was then when he had to decide what should be the philosophy behind his reign.He looked at other countries and noticed in most of them, the government and the people strive for economical wealth. And those few who achieve this goal usually live a comfortable life. But on the downside, many other people live in misery, poverty or social isolation. Also in the ruthless hunt for money, huge parts of the environment are often destroyed. This couldn’t be the right path for Bhutan.The concept of Gross National Happiness was born. The primary idea of GNH is that every human being aspires for happiness and the country’s development should also be measured in its citizens’ happiness. The fourth Dragon King’s challenge therefore was figuring out how to balance economic development with the emotional and spiritual well-being of his people. Although economic growth can’t be the only goal, a flourishing economy gives the government the funds needed to provide a working, health and educational system, as well as certain living standards. Because being healthy, having opportunities for the future and knowing that security, a steady income, housing or well-balanced time use are guaranteed is crucial for people to be happy. But furthermore, people get a lot of positive energy from being with others and sharing interests. Participating in cultural life and to hold up local traditions and cultural heritage lead to a strongercommunity feeling. Healthy family relationships, advocating community activities and religious aspects are factors for achieving happiness. It gives the Bhutanese people a strong sense of values and identity.The 4th Dragon King reigned 34 years basing his decisions on all factors of Gross National Happiness, asking himself, “what makes Bhutan’s people happy?” And the 4th Dragon King lived by example, leading a very simple life. In fact, he believed so strongly in the concept of GNH, he even decided to hand over sovereignty to the people. In 2006, he retired as King at the age of 52 and changed the course of history. Two years later, in 2008, Bhutan elected its first representative parliament. Since then, the idea of Gross National Happiness has taken quite some momentum outside of Bhutan, with other countries and people around the world thinking about adopting the GNH approach to strive for development with values and to make the world a happier place.Supplementary Listening & SpeakingII.
