Part II Yoga exercises Classical yoga is a doctrine that is theistic and emphasizes purification through meditation. A yogi, or practitioner of yoga, meditates in order to achieve true bliss, which involves a complete withdrawal from the world. Yogis assume the bodily posture that affords them the most stability and the least effort. The yogi strives to transcend body and matter through consistent meditation.

Since 19949.Do you have any children? a. Yes, two daughters and one son.10.W here did you and your wife meet?b. We met at my best friend’s birthday party.Part II Changing rolesA.Listen to an interview on changes in the parent-child roles and male-female roles.B.Listen to a more authentic version of the interview. Supply the missinginformation in the following chart.Tapescript:Question: Parent Link is an organization that looks at the problems that parents and children face. Its director, Tim Kahn, told us about the changing roles ofparents and children.Tim Kahn: The authoritarian model was one in which the child had no rights and I guess in the 60s and perhaps the 70s many people rejected that and we had the sort of permissive era ---- the age where many parents felt they had to allow theirchildren to do whatever they wanted to do and so in a sense the roles werereverved and it was t he children who were the bosses and the parents who ran around behind them. The ideas that we offer to parents are kind of a third position in which we’re looking at equals, where parents and children are different but equal.Q: What about changes in the male-female roles?T: Society has changed a lot. As well as technology leading to great changes,people’s roles have changed very much, in particular the women’s movement has very much questioned the role of women and led many women to demand a freer choice about who are and how they can be. There’s a lot of frustration with how men haven’t changed, and it seems to me that the more the frustration is expressed the more stuck in and being the same men are and we need to find ways ofappreciating men for the amount of work that they have to do in being bread-winners and providers for families and appreciating the efforts men are making to be more involved with their children.Q: Are there any changes you would like to see in the attitude to family life in Britain?T: In the past there were arranged marriages and I wonder if part of having an arranged marriage is know ing that you have to work at it to create the love and that now people are getting married out of love and there’s a kind of feeling that your love is there and it will stay there forever and we don’t have to work at it and when it gets tricky we don’t know how to work at it and so we opt out. I think helping people learn to work at their relationships to make their relationship work would be a significant thing that I’d like to see happening.Part III Family life then and nowA. Answer the questions1.separate2. Smoking, drinking3. collecting4. On the railway5. easy6. Play a lot of games7. go out, 18B. Decide whether the statements are True or False.1. F2. F3. T4. F5. F6. TTapescript:Josephine: We did feel far more stability in our lives, because you see… in these days I think there’s always a concern that families will separate orsomething, but in those days nobody expected the families toseparate.Gertrude: Of course there may have been smoking, drinking and drug-taking years ago, but it was all kept very quiet, nobody knew anything about it.But these days there really isn’t the family life that we used to have.The children seem to do more as they like whether they know it’s rightor wrong. Oh, things are very different I think.Question: What was your parents’ role in family life?Josephine: Well, my mother actually didn’t do a tremendous amount in the house, but she did do a great deal of work outside and she was very interested,for example, in the Nursing Association collecting money for it. Wehad somebody who looked after us and then we also had someone whodid the cleaning.Gertrude: Well, we lived in a flat, we only had three rooms and a bathroom.Father worked on the railway at Victoria Station and my mother didn’twork, obviously. My father’s wage I think was about two pounds aweek and I suppose our rent was about twelve shillings a week, youknow as rent was --- I’m going back a good many years. We didn’thave an easy life, you know and I think that’s why my mother went outso much with her friends. It was a relief for her, you know really. Question: Did you have a close relationship with your parents?Josephine: In a sense I would say not very close but we, at that time, didn’t feel that way, we didn’t think about it very much I don’t think. I thinktoday people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything,which we didn’t. Then, of course, we used to play a lot of games,because we didn’t have a television or even a radio and we would playgames in the evenings rather than have conversation, I think. Question: Was there more discipline in families in those days?Josephine: Oh yes, I do think so, yes. We were much more disciplines and we went about as a family and it wasn’t until I was probably about 18 before I would actually go out with any friends of my own.Statements:1. Seventy years ago young people often smoked and drank in front of others.2. Apart from a great deal of work outside, Josephine’s mother also looked afterher children and did the cooking and cleaning in the house.3. Gertrude’s father earned two pounds a week.4. Gertrude’s family had to pay ten shillings a week for their flat.5. Young people seventy years ago deeply felt that they did not have a very closerelationship with their parents.6. Nowadays people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything tothem.Part IV More about the topic: Father’s DayA.While listening, supply the missing words.1)wise, knows2)thankless, provider, enemy3)poorest, richest4)trust, educate5)fourteen, ignorant, stand, around, twenty-one, astonished, learned6)hard, hardships, hardships, through started7)realizes, right, wrong8)baby, woman, woman, back9)need, strong, protectionB.Supply the missing words while listening.Part V Memory test: Brothers and SistersKey to multiple choice questions:1. b2. d3. a4. c5. b6. bTapescript:Woman: Well, my brother was six years younger than I, and er, I think that when he was little I was quite jealous of him. I remember he had beautiful redcurls(mm)… my mother used to coo over him. One day a friend and Iplayed, erm, barber shop, and, erm, my mother must have been away, shemust have been in the kitchen or something (mm) and we got thesescissors and sat my brother down and kept him quiet and (strapped himdown)… That’s right, and cut off all his curls, you see.

Almanac editorial director says the experts believe the next century will bring lots of changes.Warm, of course, that our climate is going to continue getting warmer. That’s the subject, by the way, of another new article on the 1999 World Almanac. The greenhouse effect, exactly what causes it, and what steps to be taken to, perhaps to alleviate global warmings. I’ve seen recently that 1998 is going to g o down as the warmest year ever on record. And so that’s going to be a major issue of the next century, and possible tremendous consequences of the global warmings, whether it is rising sea levels affecting the coastal areas; changes in climate zones affecting what crops can be grown, and in what regions. This is potentially a very significant trend to be watched.E. Cyclone: North or south of equator / Typhoon:/ Hurricane: Eastern PacificMajor ocean storms in the northern part of the world usually develop in late summer or autumn over waters near the equator.

Here is David Willis.The storm with winds of up to 75 miles an hour struck India’s southeast coast, flattening homes, destroying crops and cutting transport links. Eyewitnesses reported tidal waves more than 12 feet high. The storm was followed by torrential rains, which swept away roads and railway lines, and flooded low lying areas. More than 40 people are thought to have died when a ferry sank. But most of the deaths have been due to flooding, houses collapsing or electrocutions. More than 100,000 people have been evacuated from their homes and are taking shelter in relief camps. After surveying the flooded area by helicopter, the chief minister said it resembled a burial ground. He’s appealed to the federal government to treat t he incident as a national calamity.

The worst of the heavy rains and thunderstorms that have been sweeping parts of Europe during the past week appears to be over.

Although most flights are expected to be back to normal by this time tomorrow, there are expected to be serious delays on the German and Italian motorways over the forthcoming holiday weekend and train services are unlikely to be normalized for several days. A government spokeswoman in France announced that the damage to homes and property is expected to be at least four thousand million francs. It is reported that at least five people have lost their lives. Experts agree that casualty figures are lowbecause emergency warnings were issued on the day before the storms began. The federal government in Switzerland has urged motorists and rail travelers not to travel during the next few days and no international traffic will be allowed on the main north-south motorway routes across the country until next Tuesday.Part III.

Mary: Well, I know you said your old calculator was no good any more. John: Well, it wasn't that it was no good. It just wouldn't do all the things I need to do at work. And it certainly wouldn't remember telephone numbers for me like this one. Mary: I suppose you're going to start putting in numbers straightaway. John: I've put in one while we've been chatting. I've put in our solicitor 's number. You know how often I need to call him on company contracts. Mary: So what others are you going to put in? John: Well, number one. Accountant , I think. Mary: The company's accountant? John: Yes. Now just let me put in the number. That's it. Mary: And number two, the bank. John: OK. Bank. Now, that's 345674. Oh...And number 3, the doctor. Mary: Yes. His number's er, let me think. 76763. And then the dentist, of course. John: What's that? Number 4, isn't it? Dentist. Mary: Yes, the number's 239023. I remember, because I rang yesterday about Robbie's appointment. John: That's fine. And now -- the garage . 757412. Mary: And then how about the station number? You're always hunting around for that in a panic. John: Yes, you're right. What is the number anyway? Mary: Oh, I can't remember. I'll just look it up in the telephone directory . John: All right. Now, number 7, the flower shop, I think. Yes, florist. And that's 989024. Oh, I mustn't forget the new London office number. So that's number 8, new London office. Mary: John, here's the station number. 546534. John: 546534. Thanks. Now that was number 6 on my list. Mary: How far have you got now? John: Well, I've added a couple more. The next one will be 9. Mary: What about Bill and Sue ? John: No, I can alwaysremember their number. But I always have to look up John and Jane's number. What is it? Mary: John and Jane ... John and Jane (I)know,21463. John: OK, 21463. John and Jane. And one more perhaps? Mary: The hairdresser? John: Why do I need the hairdresser's number? No, I thought this was my pocket calculator. Oh, I tell you one number we do need quite often -- the sports club ! Mary: the sport club! John: Great minds think alike! OK, number 10. Sports club. And that's –Mary: 675645. Mary: 675645. Well that's enough for the moment. I think. Now, as it's my birthday, what about taking me out for a meal ? Mary: I don't think I can remember the telephone number of our favorite restaurant. Part III. Family life then and now Tape script:Josephine: We did feel far more stability in our lives, because you see…in these days I think there's always a concern that families will separate or something, but in those days nobody expected the families to separate . Gertrude: Of course there may have been smoking, drinking and drug-taking years ago, but it was all kept very quiet, nobody knew anything about it. But these days there really isn't the family life that we used to have. The children seem todo more as they like whether they know it's right or wrong. Oh, things are very different I think. Question: What was your parents' role in family life? Josephine: Well, my mother actually didn't do a tremendous amount in the house , but she did do a great deal of work outside and she was very interested, for example, in the Nursing Association collecting money for it. We had somebody who looked after us and then we also had someone who did the cleaning. Gertrude: Well, we lived in a flat, we only had three rooms and a bathroom. Father worked on the railway at Victoria Station and my mother didn't work obviously.My father's wage I think was about two pound a week and I suppose our rent was about twelve shillings a week, you know aw rent was – I'm going back a good many years. We didn't have an easy life , you know, and I think that's why my mother went out so much with her friends. It was a relief for her, you know really. Question: Did you have a close relationship with your parents? Josephine: In a sense I would say not very close but we, at that time, didn't feel that way, we didn't think about it very much I don't think . I think today people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything, which we didn't. Then, of course, we used to play a lot of games, because we didn't have a television or even a radio and we would play games in the evenings rather than have conversation, I think. Question: Was there more discipline in families in those days? Josephine: Oh yeas, I do think so, yes. We were much more disciplined and we went about as a family and it wasn't until I was probably about 18 before I would actually go out with any friends of my own. Statements: • 70years ago young people often smoked and drank in front of others. • Apart from a great deal of work outside, Josephine's mother also looked after her children and did the cleaning in the house. • Gertrude's father earned two pounds a week. • Gertrude's family had to pay ten shillings a week for their flat. • Young people seventy years ago deeply felt that they did not have a very close relationship with their pare nts. • Nowadays people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything to them.

Memory test: Brother and Sisters 1. b 2. d 3. a 4.c 5. b 6. b Tape script:Woman: Well, my brother was six years younger than I, and er, I think that when he was little I was quite jealous of him. I remember he had beautiful red curls (mm)…my mother used to coo over him. One day a friend and I played, erm,barber shop, and erm, my mother must have been away, she must have been in the kitchen or something (mm) and we got these scissors and sat my brother down and kept him quiet and (strapped him down)… That's right, and cut off all his curls, you see. And my mother was so upset, and in fact it's the first…I think it's one of the few times I've ever seen my father really angry. Man: What happened to you? Woman: Oh…I was sen t to my room fro a whole week you know, it was terrible. Man: But was that the sort of pattern, weren't you close to your brother at all? Woman: Well as I grew older I think that er I just ignored him… Man: What about … you've got an older brother too, did … were they close, the two brothers? Woman: No, no my brother's just a couple of years older than I … so the two of us were closer and we thought we were bother very grown up and he was just a … a kid… so we deliberately, I think, kind of ignored him. And then I left, I left home when he was only still a schoolboy, he was only fifteen (mm) and I went to live in England and he eventually went to live in Brazil and I really did lose contact with him for a long time. Man: What was he doing down there? Woman: Well, he was a travel agent, so he went down there to work … And, erm, I didn't, I can't even remember, erm sending a card, even, when he got married. But I re…I do remember that later on my mo ther was showing me pictures of his wedding, ‘cause my mother and father went down there to the wedding, and er, there was this guy on the photos with a beard and glasses, and I said, “Oh, who's this then?” ‘cause I thought it was the bride's brother or so mething like them (mm) … and my mother said frostily, “That … is your brother!” (laughter) Questions for memory test: • According to the passage, how many brothers does the lady have? • When the sister saw her mother coo over her youngbrother how did she feel? • What's her father's reaction when he got to know that the sister had cut off her younger brother's hair? • How old was her younger brother when she left home? • Where did her brother eventually live? • Who was the buy on the photos with a beard and glasses?

listen to this 2 Lesson 2原文及答案

Lesson 2Section ONE:Task 1: Film EditingInterviewer: Is film editing a complicated job?Film Editor: Oh yes, a lot of people probably don't know how complicated a job it can be. It's far more than just sticking pieces of film together.Interviewer: How long does it take to edit a film?Film Editor: Well, it depends. You can probably expect to edit a 10-minute film in about a week. A 35-minute documentary, like the one I'm editing at present, takes a minimum of four to five weeks to edit.Interviewer: Can you explain to me how film editing works?Film Editor: There are different steps. 'Synching up', for example.Interviewer: What do you mean by synching up?Film Editor: It means matching sound and pictures and that is usually done by my assistant. The film and the sound tape have numbers stamped along the edge which have to be matched. The details of the film and the sound are also recorded in a log book, so it's quick and easy to find a particular take and its soundtrack. This operation is called logging and is again done by my assistant.Interviewer: So what do you usually do yourself?Film Editor: A lot of things, of course. First, I have to view all the material to make a first selection of the best takes. There's a lot of film to look through because to make a sequence work the way you want, you need a lot of shots to choose from.Interviewer: Does that mean that you have to discard sequences?Film Editor: Oh yes. On average for every foot of edited film, you need twelve times as much unedited film and therefore you have to compromise and, of course, discard some of it.Interviewer: What do you do after selecting the material?Film Editor: First of all, I prepare an initial version of the film, a 'rough cut' as it is called. That means that I actually cut the film into pieces and stick them together again in the new order.Interviewer: And after this 'rough cut' what happens?Film Editor: Well, after the 'rough cut' comes the 'fine cut' when the film takes its final form. The producer and the director come in for a viewing. Some small changes may then be necessary, but when the 'fine cut' has been approved by everyone, this is the final version of the film.Interviewer: At this point is the film ready for distribution?Film Editor: Oh no. After the final version of the film has been approved, there is the dubbing, there are voices, music, background noises and sometimes special effects to be put together for the soundtrack. And after the dubbing, the edited film is sent to the 'neg' cutters.Interviewer: What do the 'neg' cutters do?Film Editor: They cut the original negatives on the films, so that these match the edited film exactly. And after all that comes the best part—I can sit down quietly with my feet up and enjoy watching the film!Man: Hi.Woman: Hi.Man: What'd you do last night?Woman: I watched TV. There was a really good movie called Soylent Green.Man: Soylent Green?Woman: Yeah. Charlton Heston was in it.Man: What's it about?Woman: Oh, it's about life in New York in the year 2022.Man: I wonder if New York will still be here in 2022.Woman: In this movie, in 2022 ...Man: Yeah?Woman: ... New York has forty million people.Man: Ouch!Woman: And twenty million of them are unemployed.Man: How many people live in New York now? About seven or eight million?Woman: Yeah, I think that's right.Man: Mm-hmm. You know, if it's hard enough to find an apartment now in New York City, what's it going to be like in 2022?Woman: Well, in this movie most people have no apartment. So thousands sleep on the steps of buildings. (Uh-huh.) People who do have a place to live have to crawl over sleeping people to get inside. And there are shortages of everything. The soil is so polluted that nothing will grow. (Ooo.) And the air is so polluted they never see the sun. It's really awful.Man: I think I'm going to avoid going to New York City in the year 2022.Woman: And there was this scene where the star, Charlton Heston, goes into a house where some very rich people live.Man: Uh-huh.Woman: He can't believe it, because they have running water and they have soap.Man: Really?Woman: And then he goes into the kitchen and they have tomatoes and lettuce and beef. He almostcries because he's never seen real food in his life, you know, especially the beef. It was amazing for him.Man: Well, if most people have no real food, what do they eat?Woman: They eat something called soylent.Man: Soylent?Woman: Yeah. There's soylent red and soylent yellow and soylent green. The first two are made out of soybeans. But the soylent green is made out of ocean plants. (Ugh.) The people eat it like crackers. That's all they have to eat.Man: That sounds disgusting.Woman: Well, you know, it really isn't that far from reality.Man: No?Woman: Yeah. Because, you know the greenhouse effect that's beginning now and heating up the earth ...Man: Oh, yeah, I've heard about that.Woman: ... because we're putting the pollutants in the atmosphere, you know?Man: Mm-hmm.Woman: I mean, in this movie New York has ninety degrees weather all year long. And it could really happen. Uh ... like now, we ... we have fuel shortages. And in the movie there's so little electricity that people have to ride bicycles to make it.Man: You know something? I don't think that movie is a true prediction of the future.Woman: I don't know. It scares me. I think it might be.Man: Really?Woman: Well, yeah.Section Two:Task 1: American IndiansThe native Americans, the people we call the 'Indians', had been in America for many thousands of years before Christopher Columbus arrived in 1492. Columbus thought he had arrived in India, so he called the native people 'Indians'.The Indians were kind to the early settlers. They were not afraid of them and they wanted to help them. They showed the settlers the new world around them; they taught them about the local crops like sweet potatoes, corn and peanuts; they introduced the Europeans to chocolate and to the turkey; and the Europeans did business with the Indians.But soon the settlers wanted bigger farms and more land for themselves and their families. More and more immigrants were coming from Europe and all these people needed land. So the Europeans started to take the land from the Indians. The Indians had to move back into the centre of the continent because the settlers were taking all their land.The Indians couldn't understand this. They had a very different idea of land from the Europeans. For the Indians, the land, the earth, was their mother. Everything came from their mother, the land, and everything went back to it. The land was for everyone and it was impossible for one man to own it. How could the White Man divide the earth into parts? How could he put fences round it, buy it and sell it?Naturally, when the White Man started taking all the Indians' land, the Indians started fighting back. They wanted to keep their land, they wanted to stop the White Man taking it all for himself. But the White Man was stronger and cleverer. Slowly he pushed the Indians into those parts of the continent that he didn't want—the parts where it was too cold or too dry or too mountainous to live comfortably.By 1875 the Indians had lost the fight: they were living in special places called 'reservations'. But even here the White Man took land from them—perhaps he wanted the wood, or perhaps the land had important minerals in it, or he even wanted to make national parks there. So even on their reservations the Indians were not safe from the White Man.There are many Hollywood films about the fight between the Indians and the White Man. Usually in these films the Indians are bad and the White Man is good and brave. But was it really like that? What do you think? Do you think the Indians were right or wrong to fight the White Man?Task 2: New AustraliansInterviewer: Today, there are more than 15 million people living in Australia. Only 160,000 of these are Aborigines, so where have the rest come from? Well, until 1850 most of the settlers came from Britain and Ireland and, as we know, many of these were convicts. Then in 1851 something happened which changed everything. Gold was discovered in southeastern Australia. During the next ten years, nearly 700,000 people went to Australia to find gold and become rich. Many of them were Chinese. China is quite near to Australia. Since then many different groups of immigrants have gone to Australia for many different reasons. Today I'm going to talk to Mario whose family came from Italy and to Helena from Greece. Mario, when did the first Italians arrive in Australia?Mario: The first Italians went there, like the Chinese, in the gold-rushes, hoping to find gold and become rich. But many also went there for political reasons. During the 1850s and 1860s different states in Italy were fighting for independence and some Italians were forced to leave their homelands because they were in danger of being put in prison for political reasons.Interviewer: I believe there are a lot of Italians in the sugar industry.Mario: Yes, that's right. In 1891 the first group of 300 Italians went to work in the sugarcane fields of northern Australia. They worked very hard and many saved enough money to buy their own land. In this way they came to dominate the sugar industry on many parts of the Queensland coast. Interviewer: But not all Italians work in the sugar industry, do they?Mario: No. A lot of them are in the fishing industry. Italy has a long coastline, as you know, and Italians have always been good fishermen. At the end of the nineteenth century some of these went to western Australia to make a new life for themselves. Again, many of them, including my grandfather, were successful.Interviewer: And what about the Greeks, Helena?Helena: Well, the Greeks are the fourth largest national group in Australia, after the British, the Irish and the Italians. Most Greeks arrived after the Second World War but in the 1860s there were already about 500 Greeks living in Australia.Interviewer: So when did the first Greeks arrive?Helena: Probably in 1830, they went to work in vineyards in southeastern Australia. The Greeks have been making wine for centuries so their experience was very valuable.Interviewer: But didn't some of them go into the coalmines?Helena: Yes, they weren't all able to enjoy the pleasant outdoor life of the vineyards. Some of them went to work in the coalmines in Sydney. Others started cafes and bars and restaurants. By 1890 there were Greek cafes and restaurants all over Sydney and out in the countryside (or the bush, as the Australians call it) as well.Interviewer: And then, as you said, many Greeks arrived after the Second World War, didn't they?Helena: Yes, yes, that's right. Conditions in Greece were very bad: there was very little work and many people were very poor. Australia needed more workers and so offered to pay the boat fare. People who already had members of their family in Australia took advantage of this offer and went to find a better life there.Interviewer: Well, thank you, Mario and Helena. Next week we will be talking to Juan from Spain and Margaret from Scotland.Section Three: \Task 1: Learning to Predict:(1) A: It doesn't sound much like dancing to me.B: It is; it's great.A: More like some competition in the Olympic Games.C: Yeah.

I've made a nice curry. I hope you do like curry?B: Yes, I love curry, I used to work in India, as a matter of fact.A: Really? How interesting. You must (pause) tell us all about it over dinner.Task 2: Dictation:The Foolish FrogOnce upon a time a big, fat frog lived in a tiny shallow pond. He knew every plant and stone in it, and he could swim across it easily. He was the biggest creature in the pond, so he was very important. When he croaked, the water snails listened politely. And the water beetles always swam behind him. He was very happy there.One day, while he was catching flies, a pretty dragon fly passed by. 'You're a very fine frog,' she sang, 'but why don't you live in a bigger pond? Come to my pond. You'll find a lot of frogs there. You'll meet some fine fish, and you'll see the dangerous ducks. And you must see our lovely water lilies. Life in a large pond is wonderful!''Perhaps it is rather dull here,' thought the foolish frog. So he hopped after the dragon fly.But he didn't like the big, deep pond. It was full of strange plants. The water snails were rude to him, and he was afraid of the ducks. The fish didn't like him, and he was the smallest frog there. He was lonely and unhappy.He sat on a water lily leaf and croaked sadly to himself, 'I don't like it here. I think I'll go home tomorrow.'But a hungry heron flew down and swallowed him up for supper.Key to Exercise:Lesson 2Section ITask1: Film EditingA.True or False Questions.1—4: TFTFB.Fill in the following blanks to give a clear picture of what needs to be done before a filmis ready for distribution.1.

He knew every plant and stone in it, and he could swim across it easily. He was the biggest creature in the pond, so he was very important. When he croaked, the water-snails listened politely. And the water-beetles always swam behind him. He was very happy there.One day, while he was catching flies, a pretty dragon-fly passed by. ‘You’re a very fine frog,’ she sang, ‘but why don’t you live in a bigger pond? Come to my pond. You’ll find a lot of frogs there. You’ll meet some fine fish, and you’ 11 see the dangerous ducks. And you must see our lovely water-lilies. Life in a large pond is wonderful!’‘Perhaps it is rather dull here,’ thought the foolish frog. So he hopped after the dragon-fly.But he didn’t like the big, deep pond. It was full of strange plants. The water-snails were rude to him, and he was afraid of the ducks. The fish didn’t like him, and he was the smallest frog there. He was lonely and unhappy.He sat on a water-lily leaf and croaked sadly to himself, ‘I don’t like it here. I think I’ll go home tomorrow.’But a hungry heron flew down and swallowed him up for supper.。

More about the topic:cell phone: A new Health Risk?More than 20 million handset were shipped world-wide last year for the fast-growing digital cellular phone market. According to the US marketing firm Dataquest, production of GSM(Global System for Mobile communicaations) handsets will exceed 60 million by 2000.The mobile phone is getting more and more popular because of the remarkable improvement of the world's mobile communication service. by the end of this year, there will be 178 GSM networks in 110 countries. providing extended geographic coverage in the form of "roaming agreements" among GSM carries.But since the very day it came into being the mobile pnone has been a mixed blessing.People are worried that it can mean a new health risk.According to scientists from 10 countries who met in Vienna recently. mobile phones may heat up you brain, interfere with heart pacemakers and cause cancer in miceBut there is no scientific evidence to support fears that the ever-increasisng use of mobile phones may threaten human health.The group did agree to intensify research into radiofrequency electromagnetic fields(EMF),which emanae from mobile phones.This is something that we hold as a hing priority.we want to find out if these electromagnetic fields do produce cancer." said and EMF expert," this is going to take time, i know everyone wants answers tomorrow but this is just not possible."the EMF project, lauched last year, is a five-year $3.3 million programme to study possible health hazard stemming from exposure to mobile phones and other EMF sources.What will the experts of the EMF projects tell us four or five years later? We just don't know.Will there be the possibility taht one day you find a cell phone carrying a warning similar to the one we have seen too often on cigarette packs:USING MOBILE PHONE MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH?

Place a tick by all the questions you can rember.Can I take a message? (2)Part 1 G etting readySome telephone calls will not get through without the help of an operator. For example, a person-to-person call and a collect call, which will be paid for by the person who receives it. Sometimes a long distance call and an overseas call will also be connected by operator if it is not a direct call.A. The following words and phrases will appear in this unit. All of them are related to the telephone and some are frequently used when giving and receiving phone calls. Listen carefully and studied the definitions.1. person to person call2. collect call3. go through4. operator5. hang up6. information7. answering machine8. exchange9. touch tone telephone10. IDDB. Here are some short conversations on the phone. Please listen and supply the missing words.l —Hello! I have a collect call from Calvin Leon, will you accept the charges?—Sure. Put him on.l —Operator!—Operator! I am trying to call 7982294.—That number is outside this zone. It’s a dollar 45 for 3 minutes.—All right. I’ll put in the coins.l —Overseas operator. Which country?—Yes, go ahead.—I’d like to book a call to Venice Italy.—From which date and time?—August 19th at 10 a.m.—What’s your name and phone number?—Robert Smith. 6643639. The number in Venice is 8211083.—We’ll call you when your call is re ady to go through.l —Hello. I have a person-to-person call for Mr. Hawkins from Corey Jones.—There is no Hawkins here. What number are you dialing?—I’m trying reach William Hawkins at 6099525.—That’s our number but you’ve made a mistake.—Sorry for disturbing you.Part 2 Giving and receiving phone callsSometimes, even when a telephone call goes through, the caller is still unable to speak to the person being called. Instead, the call might be answered by a machine. An answering machine answers calls with the tape recording. And many answering machines also allow the caller to record a message. It’s more efficient to leave your name and telephone number than to waste your time calling again and again.A. In this section, you are going to hear several calls that are answered by machines. Listen to the recorded messages. Write down the reasons why each call is being answered by machine instead of a person and the actions you decide to take. Write, W for wait on the line, L for leave a message and C for call back later.( the first call)l This is the Transit Authority’s telephone information Center. We are open daily between 6:00 am and midnight. All our lines are busy now, you will hear ring until the next available agent can assist you.( the second call)l This is call for action. 925-1066. I’m sorry. Our volunteers are not on duty at this time. Please calling a regular hours: 11:00 am to 1:00pm Monday to Friday. Remember the number925-1066. 11:00am to 1:00 pm. Thank you.( the third call)l Hi! This is Charlie. I’m not home now. But if you leave your name and telephone number after the beep. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.( the fourth call)l Hi! This is Pioneer Travel. Specializing in Bicycle Tours of Eastern Europe. All Agents ar e busy now. But your call really is important to us so please stay on the line. One of us will be with you as soon as possible. Thanks.( the fifth call)l Hi! This is Steve. I can’t come to the phone now. I’m taking a shower. So at the sound of the beep, leave a message or just hang up if you want to.Message taking is one of the most useful skills in dealing with telephone calls. A great deal of practice is needed in this respect.B. You are going to hear some recorded phone calls. The first three cal ls are for Mr. Hamiltonand the last one is for Mr. Dobson.1. First listen to some names.Rebecca Evans Ted Paola Andreotti2. Now listen to the calls. While listening for the first time add more key words if you can in the left-hand column. After the second listening complete the messages in right-hand column with the help of the notes.l Look! I can’t stop. Tell HoratioI couldn’t get the red ones but there are plenty of blue, he can see them any time. Oh, my name is Ted, bye.l Well, I was hoping to speak to Mr. Hamilton myself. But perhaps you’ll give him a message for me. Tell him that Mr. Evans of Smith and Wheeler called. They are a few details regarding the sale of his property that we need to discuss. And I’ll be glad if he would contact as soo n as possible. Thank you very much. Goodbye.l Oh, well. Would you tell him Rebecca called? Give him this message. Remember your promise. That’s all. You will do that, won’t you? Don’t forget. Bye.l — Green and Harding. Good morning.—Oh, good morning. This is Paola Andreotti calling from Rome.—I’d like to speak to Mr. Guy Dobson, please.—Oh, certainly, ma’am. I’ll connect you immediately.—Hello.—Oh, is that Guy Dobson?—Er…No, is that Paola?—Yes. Oh, hi, this is Bob Swanson.—Oh, hi. Is Guy around?—Just a minute. I’ll check. No, he doesn’t seem to be. He should be back any minute. Can I help you?—Yeah. Look, can I leave a message with you?—Yes, sure.—It’s urgent. There is been a mix-up about the labeling of product number 15437-B. Th at’s the one for the Italian Market.—I’ve got that.—And I bought him to get in touch so it be cleared up.—Ok.—He can reach me at this number till tomorrow evening.—Mmm.—It’s 002-5589847.—Ok. He can reach you at this number till tomorrow evening. 002-5589847.—That’s right, great.—Thanks , Bob.—Ok, bye-bye.C. Now try this. Listen to the more authentic versions of the calls.Part 3 Oh, there is a phone.If you want to get a telephone call through, you’ll have to know the correct number. Sometimes the information center will help you if the number is not an unpublished one and you know the receiver’s address. If you are using a coin telephone, you’ll have to have some coins at hand.But if the number you dialed is busy, all you effort will result in nothing.A. You are going to hear a conversation in which one of the speakers tries several times to make a phone call, but fails at last. The following vocabulary, which is only acceptable oral English, is used in the conversation. Guess the meaning when you hear these words and expressions. While you listen don’t forget add more key words in the notes column. That will be very helpful for the next section.B. You’re going to hear the conversation again. Answer the following question with the help of the notes.l —Oh, there is a phone. Wait a sec, I wanna call my cousin.—Why do you want to call your cousin?—Because I told her I’d meet her at the bookstore at 12:30, and if you and I are going to have lunch, I’ve got to let her know that I’ll be late.—We’re sorry. We cannot complete your call as dialed. Please check the number and dial again or ask the operator for assistance. This is a recording.—Hmm. I must have dialed wrong.—What’s the matter?—I’ve got a recording. I’ll try it aga in.—We’re sorry. We cannot complete your call as dialed.—I don’t understand that. I’ve called her a million times.—Well, do you have the number?—Sure, but not with me. I’ll call Information.—Directory assistance, what city please?—Boulder, the number for Dorothy Campbell on Cloverleaf.—Wait a moment please. I show a D.J Campbell on Cloverleaf Drive.—That’s it.—The number is 4472023.—Thank you. I don’t believe it. I dialed the wrong exchange. I dialed 477, instead of 447. —Yeah, I’ve don e that too.—Well, let’s try it again.—25cents, please. Please deposit 25 cents for the first one-minute.—Hey, Marilyn, have you got a quarter?—Yeah, I think so.—Never mind. I found one.—Oh, boy. Her phone is busy.—C’mon.. Let’s work to the re staurant. You can try again from there.—Ok. But if I can’t reach her to tell her I’ll be late, I can’t have lunch with you. She’ll kill me if she has to wait for me.—Ok, but I won’t have lunch anyway, so let’s go.C. Now try this. Listen to a more authentic version of the conversation. And decide whether the statements after the conversation are true or false. Put a T or F in brackets.Statements:1. The girls haven’t has supper yet.2. The recording says that the number has been changed.3. The ca ller calls Information for her cousin’s number.4. Dorothy Campbell lives in Cloverleaf Drive, New York.5. The correct exchange is 447.6. The caller is using a cell phone.7. The caller borrows a quarter from Marilyn.8. The call gets through but no one answers the phone.9. The will probably be a telephone at the restaurant.10. The caller’s cousin won’t be angry if she has to wait.Part 4 More about the topic: Videophones call gets the call. Nowadays, more and more mothers go out of their homes and become career woman. More and more extended families are being replaced by nuclear families. Some new problems hence occur. Such as how to make to make sure the kids behave at home. What to do with the lonely grandparents who cannot see their grandchildren often etc. Brilliant scientists rose to the occasion: They invited Videophones.The following short passage is about Videophones. Supply the missing words while listening. l Videophones are now available in British Columbia, Canada. For about 30 dollars a month, you can see and hear the other person at the end of the telephone line. And even call home and use the video camera to check out on the kids or valuables.A subscriber must have a touch-tone telephone. A standard telephone line and a television or computer to connect to the device, which can pan, tilt and zoom. If a VCR is attached, the videophone call can also be taped.But don’t worry that the cameras will start rolling as soon as you pick up your videophone. Both parties must decide to activate the picture. So you can still make faces at your in-laws without them seeing.The videophone can also be activated from outside the home. For those who want to check whether they been robbed or if the kids are behaving. Subscribers dial home, punch in a security code and watch, the at home videophone must be left on for this to happen.The device has been used by health care professional to check up on patients. By grandparents who want to see their grandchildren and by companies for interviewing job candidates.The videophone technology isn’t all new. Videophones were around 61 years ago when German engineers set up 6 booths in Berlin and Leipzig. People could make calls for only twice the cost of a voice-only conversation. AT and T also introduce videophones at the 1964 World Fair, but the idea never took off.Part 5 Memory test: How to make an International Direct Dialing (IDD) call?With the advent of the programme-controlled telephone, you can now make an International Direct Dialing call without the help of an operator. That, of course means great conveniences for the caller. But if you have never personally made an IDD call, you may ask how to begin? If you want to make an International Direct Dialing call, you have to know four things: the access code, the country code, the area code and the local telephone number. For example if you want to make an IDD call to a friends of yours in Sydney Australia from Shanghai at 24661923. First you have to dial China’s Access code 00 and then you dial Australia’s Country code 61, after that Sydney area code 2, and at last the local telephone number 24661923. So the whole number will be 0061224661923.A. Now you’re going to hear some Access, Country and Area Codes. Write down the numbers as quickly as possible.Country or Area Access Code Country Code Area CodeChina 00 86Beijing 10USA 001 1Washington DC 202United Kingdom 010 44Manchester 61Canada 011 1Toronto 416Australia 0011 61Melbourne 3Netherlands 00 64Wellington 4Russia 810 7Moscow 095Japan 001 81Tokyo 3France 19 33Paris 1Germany 00 49Berlin 30Italy 00 39Venice 41B. You’re going to hear some instructions on making IDD calls. With the help of the above table, write down the whole telephone number as quickl y as possible.1.
