Counselor辅导员: Yes?Student: Do I need to make an appointment to register for an ESL class? Counselor: No, but you first have to take a placement test.Student: A test? Counselor: We need to find out what your ESL level is. Student: Oh, Okay. Where do I go to take the test?Counselor: We will be giving the test tomorrow at 3 o’clock in room 303. Can you come then?Student: Yes.Counselor: Good. Now, let me give you some forms to fill out so we can begin the registration process. Please write your name and address here, and your ID number here.Student: Okay. What do I write under teacher and section?Counselor: You can leave those blank. We’ll fill it in tomorrow.Exercise 2Student A: I didn’t really understand what Ms. Smith was saying about the id, the superego and the ego.Student B: Oh, that’s easy. Look here on page 53. The id is the part of our personality that wants instant gratification. The ego tries to help the id get what it wants, but in a logical and practical way. The superego is like the personality’s police force. It monitors the id and the ego.Student A: Oh, I think I’m getting it. You mean the id, ego and superego are all part of our personality?Student B: Right. They are all interacting.Student A: Do you think we’ll need to give definitions?Student B: I don’t know. We may just have to match the names with the definitions. But we’d better study t his some more just to be safe.2.Scanning for the main ideaA: I can’t believe it’s closed. I’ve got a class from 7 o’clock to 10 o’clock. What am I going to do?B: Well, there are some food machines in the Student Union. You could always go there.A: No way! I tried that once last semester and I got as sick as a dog. There’s got to be something better.B: Well, we can go down to Main Street. There are a couple of places that I’m sure are open.A: We’d never make it back in time. It’s already 6:40. I think I’ll pass out if I don’t get something. I came here right from work. I didn’t have time to stop by my apartment.B: I think there’s a stand in front of Smith Hall. You can at least get something warm there.A: Well, I guess we don’t have any other choice.B: Yeah, it’s either the canteen or three hours of listening to your stomach growl.3.Scanning for the important points(1)Teacher: Good evening class. Before we begin tonight’s lesson. I want to remind you about next Thursday’s midterm. Remember to review c hapters one through eight in the book. You will be responsible for knowing all of the information in the chapters plus all of the other topics we have discussed in class. This test will include multiple choice, True/False, and essay questions. You will not be able to use any books, notes or dictionaries.(2)Now, last week, I spoke about the importance of using note cards and visual aids to prepare your speeches. Tonight I’m going to talk about specific things that will help you with your speech delivery. Please take careful notes so you can use those techniques to improve your speech delivery.The first and perhaps the most important element of good speech delivery is eye contact. It is extremely important, especially in the English-speaking world, to make eye contact with your entire audience. This may be very difficult for you if you come from a culture where making direct eye contact is a sign of disrespect. But, you really need to practice this skill until you are comfortable looking directly at all of your audience members when you are speaking to them. Please note that you need to look at the entire audience. Please don’t direct your attention to just one person or one side of the room, and really be sure not to stare into the eyes of anyone for too long of a period.(3)Next, you need to make sure that when you talk to your audience, you are enthusiastic about your topic and excited to share it with your audience. Vitality is a way of maintaining the audience’s attention and indicating to them that you firmly believe in what you are saying. Volume, intonation, facial expressions, and gestures all add to the vitality of your speech. Think abut a speaker you really liked. Did he or she just stand there and read words from a piece of paper? No, of course not. Probably the speaker was full of life and his or her energy forced you into becoming involved in caring about the topic of the speech.4.InferencingDr. Stevens: Ted, can I speak to you a minute?Ted: Yes, Doctor Stevens?Dr. Stevens: I finished reading your essay and before I return it to you, I was hoping you might be able to come in and speak with me about it.Ted: Oh, uh, okay, sure.Dr. Stevens: Can you come during my office hours?Ted: I think so. When are they again?Dr. Stevens: Tuesdays and Thursd ays from 3 o’clock until 4:30.Ted: That’s no problem Oh, wait a minute, I have football practice every day from 2 o’clock until 5 o’clock.Dr. Stevens: Hmm. Well, how about if we get together tomorrow right before class?Ted: Sure.5. Scanning for Specific Pieces Of InformationYou have reached the Student Union Activity Hotline.

He sounds really tough.(2)A: How did you do on your composition?B: Oh, you won’t believe it. I hadn’t worked on it very long and I didn’t have time to check it over.

The professor in my contemporary lit class当代文学课praised it all last semester. The bookstore hasn’t been able to get a single copy for the last month. Oh, well. Maybe I can find a copy on .2. I used the new computer registration system to charge my tuition on my credit card, and they totally messed it up. They were supposed to charge me $500 for the two art classes, and instead, it says that I’m enrolled in three history classes to the tune of $900. This is ridiculous!3. Today is my graduation day. I am done! Now, I can finally spend my weekends doing something other than cramming for(填鸭式地学习)exams and writing term papers. Yippee!4. This schedule is baffling. (不可理解的)It says that English 90 is offered at both the midtown and downtown campuses, but the times are vague. Look here; does this nine mean AM or PM? Hmm, I’m stumped.难住5. Oh yeah. I absolutely recommend professor Ponz. She’s a real dilly, 突出人物let me tell you. If you enjoy writing endless term papers on meaningless subjects, participating in class activities that have zero relevance to the topic of the course, she’s the teacher for you!SarcasticLesson 3Part ThreeSection 1: Household FurnishingsExercise 1D1. Hus band: Honey, I think it’s time we redid this room.Wife: Gee, I kind of like it the way it is.Husband: Oh, come on. Look at this floor—it’s totally scratched. It needs to be refinished or carpeted.Wife: Yeah, and while we’re at it, we might as well paint the wall around the fireplace. There are smoke stains all over it from last year’s Christmas party. Husband: Now you’re talking! Why don’t we wallpaper the other three walls in here too? Then if we get some new drapes and maybe a couple of lamps—Wife: Wa it a second. This is getting out of hand. Why don’t we just move the armchair over to cover the scratched floor and save ourselves a lot of money and trouble.2. Painter: Good morning. I’m from Daniel’s Paint-O-Rama.Woman: Oh, good. Com on in. Would you like some coffee?Painter: Maybe later. Now, have you decided on the color?Woman: I was thinking white might be nice.Painter: I wouldn’t have white in this room. It would get dirty pretty quickly. Woman: Couldn’t we use enamel paint? It’s easy to clean, right?Painter: But it smells horrible and takes a long time to dry. You wont’ be able to use this room until tomorrow.Woman: Oh, my. Well, I guess we could go to a restaurant…Painter: Why don’t you choose a color that goes with your linoleum? I could nix up a shade of latex semi-gloss that matches this blue.Woman: What about the latex semi-gloss in white? Couldn’t I wash that down if it got dirty?Painter: Yes, you could, but you’ll still have to do it more often than if you choose another color. And if you clean it too often, the finish will start to rub off.Woman: Maybe we’d better stick with the enamel then.3. Tenant: Look at the ceiling; it’s cracked and peeling over here; there’s a big water stain on the wall in the corner, and—Landlord: Okay, wh y don’t you get some paint and fix it up and I’ll pay for it. Tenant: I don’t think that’s going to fix the problem. It’s happened before and I don’t feel like wasting my time and energy covering up problem that’s just going to happen again.Landlord: Well, I’m not sure what else you want me to do. I said I’d pay to fix it.Tenant; I want you to find out what’s causing this!Landlord: Well, I’ll talk to Steven upstairs and warn him to be more careful in the future.Tenant: I don’t think Steven is the proble m. The last time this happened he wasn’t even home. Besides, he’s always been a considerate neighbor. Landlord: Maybe you steam up the room yourself. That can cause a lot of chipping and peeling. A small room like this full of steam can do a lot of damage.Tenant: Look, don’t try to turn this around on me. I always leave the window and door open so it doesn’t steam up. Either you send someone over to repair this, or else I’ll get somebody and deduct the cost from the rent. It’s up to you. 4. Meg: Tony? Tony? Tony!Tony: Huh? What?Meg: I can’t stand it. It’s freezing in here. Aren’t you cold?Tony: Well, turn the heat on.Meg: I tried. There’s no heat coming up.Tony: What time is it?Meg: It’s about 5:30. The heat should be on by now. This is the third time this week that we haven’t gotten heat until after 8:00. Isn’t that against the law? Tony: Yeah, the heat is supposed to be on between 5 AM and 11 AM every day. What he’s doing is illegal.Meg: I’m going to call the Housing Authority and report him.Tony: Maybe we should talk to him first.Meg: We already complained in the note we sent with the rent check last week. I’m tired of waiting for him to give up enough heat. If we don’t do something right away, you’re going to wake up next to an icicle one morning.Lesson 4Part ThreeSection 1: IllnessesExercise 1B1. (Telephone rings)Jim: Hello.Marty: Hi. It’s Marty. How are you? We missed you at the game today.Jim: Yeah. I’ve been in bed for a couple of days.Marty: Oh gee. What’s wrong?Jim: Oh, I’m just a little under the weather, I guess. My nose is topped up and I’ve just felt crummy.Marty: Yeah, everybody seems to have something that’s going around. Have you seen a doctor?Jim: No. I just got some non-prescription nasal spray at the drugstore and I’m d rinking plenty of fluids. One more day of rest and I’m sure I’ll be back to work. I had chills the first day and my stomach was upset, but now it’s really only my nose.Marty: Well that’s good. Listen, I won’t keep you any longer. I’m sure you’ll want to r est. Do you think you’ll be going to the game on Wednesday?Jim: Oh, I’m sure. I’ll be fine by then.Marty: Great. Well, take care. I’ll see you on Wednesday.Jim: Yeah. Thanks for calling.Marty: Bye.2.Doctor: O. K., Mike. You said it’s around your stoma ch. Please take off your shirt.Mike: O.K…. The rash is all over my right leg, too, Doctor.Doctor: I’ll look at that in just a minute. Have you been out in the woods lately? Mike: Yes. I went for a hike in the country on Saturday.Doctor: Uh-huh; and when did you first notice the rash?Mike: On Monday. At first I thought it was very uncomfortable. I washed it with antiseptic soap, but that didn’t’ seem to help, and by Tuesday, it started to itch and burn.Doctor: Did you notice if you had a fever or not?M ike: I didn’t take my temperature, but aside from the itching, I feel fine. Doctor: And, any difficulty breathing?Mike: No.Doctor: Sore throat or runny nose?Mike: No.Doctor: O.K. I think you’re going to be fine. I’m going to prescribe some cream that will help with the rash.Mike: Thanks, doctor.Doctor: And make sure to thoroughly wash all clothing that you were wearing during your hike last Saturday.3. Mindy: What is it Lou? Your stomach again?Lou: No, no … I’m all right.Mindy: Lou, I can tell when you get that look on your face.Lou: It’s nothing. Probably too much food at dinner. Ooh… Uh!!Mindy: Lou, that’s it! You’re going back to the doctor tomorrow. This has gone on too long!Lou: No … Listen, I’ll take some Fizz-Away and I’ll be fine in the m orning. Mindy: Fizz-Away? Fizz-Away is an over-the-counter antacid. That’s not going to help you, Lou. Your problem is too serious for antacid to help you. You know, if you don’t watch out, you’re going to end up on the surgeon’s table just like your brother.Lou, Oh, don’t be silly. He never took care of himself and he drank like a fish. It’s different with me. I just eat a little too much sometimes.Mindy: look, this a problem that runs in your family. Your father had it, your brother, your Uncle Leo…Lou: Mindy, this is not a hereditary condition.Mindy: No, but they say that lifestyle and poor eating habits create the problem and that is something that you get from your family.Lou: Listen, this is ridiculous. Ooh…Ow…Oh! Where’s the Fizz-Away? It’s burning.Mindy: Oh, Lou. This can’t go on!Lou: Look, it was probably just the fried chicken at dinner.Mindy: Here, take this. Now, I’m not taking no for an answer. You’re going to the doctor tomorrow and that’s final! Fried chicken! How come I don’t have any pain? I ate the same food that you had.Lou: Oh, okay, okay; I’ll go. Ow!Exercise 2B1. Al: Did you see this article about the blood shortage?Bev: No, what does it say?Al: Al the blood banks in town are reporting record shortages. Not enough people are giving blood and the hospitals are running out.Bev: That’s terrible. If somebody has an accident or needs surgery, blood is very important.Al: Yeah, it says here that unless something is done soon, there’s going to be real trouble.Bev: Well, then, go g et your coat; let’s go.Al: Huh?Bev: Let’s go to the blood bank right now and make a donation!Al: But, giving blood hurts! And besides, I don’t know if it’s such a safe thing to do.Bev: What are you talking about?Al: Well, what about AIDS? Why do you think fewer people are giving blood?I bet they’re afraid they might get infected somehow.Bev: Oh, I hadn’t thought about that. Why don’t we call the blood bank and ask them? Then we can find out for sure.Al: Good idea.2. Mom: Hi, honey; how was your day?Dad: Okay. Things were busy all day. How about you?Mom: I got three new clients this afternoon.Dad: That’s great.

Isn’t that th e little boy Bobby always plays with?Mom: Uh-huh. His mother had the HIV virus and didn’t know it. Jason was born with it.Dad: have Jason’s parents taken him out of the school?Mom: No. They want to keep his life as normal as possible until he’s too sick to attend.Dad: Well, I’m not sure I want our son playing with a child who has AIDS.

Let’s buy some red ones this time.Boy: Okay. One … Two…Mom: Oh no! No! No! Watch out! You have to take them from the top or else they’ll fall all over…Boy: Whoops! Oh no! They’re falling down.Mom: Oh my goodness. Look at this mess.Boy: I’m sorry.2.A: Gee. There are so many brands to choose from.

朗文英语听说教程1原文翻译第一单元幸福第一部分老师:嗨,早上好。
你听说昨晚的彩票中奖者了吗?那个人赢了..什么...?两百万美元..?学生:不,三个。
老师:三百万美元?三百万。
那是一大笔钱,不是吗?你认为三百万美元会让你快乐吗?...我问你这个是因为当你问人们需要什么才能快乐时,许多人会回答“更多的钱!”我们认为金钱会让我们更快乐。
但这是真的吗?彩票中奖会帮助你获得幸福吗?今天我们将探讨幸福的概念,幸福的心理学——是什么让一些人比其他人更幸福。
我们来看看在快乐的人中发现的三个性格因素。
为了找出这些性格因素,心理学家采访了数百人。
现在,首先,他们问人们他们感觉有多幸福——你知道,从“非常幸福”到“一点也不幸福”然后他们又问了一些问题。
他们想了解人们的性格,比如他们对生活的态度等等。
他们观察了快乐的人和不快乐的人之间的差异。
他们发现了三个对获得幸福非常重要的因素。
因此...现在让我们来看看这些因素。
第一个性格因素是快乐的人...对自己满意。
这意味着他们喜欢他们自己,他们对他们所拥有的感到满意。
快乐的人可能不喜欢生活中的一切——他们可能有点超重,或者可能没有最好的工作,或者可能没有住在又大又漂亮的房子里,但他们不需要改变这些事情来变得快乐。
他们更多考虑的是自己满意的事情,而不是自己想做出的改变。
这种快乐的感觉是发自内心的,而不是来自外界的某种东西。
第二部分老师:所以。
快乐的人对自己感到满意。
另一方面,不快乐的人往往对自己不满意。
她们...哦...觉得有些事情必须改变,这样他们才能快乐。
他们认为如果他们减轻一些体重,或者得到一份更好的工作或更好的房子,他们就会快乐。
他们总是在我们身边寻找让他们开心的东西。
但问题是——他们永远也找不到它!无论他们得到什么,他们仍然不满意和不快乐。
第二个性格因素是快乐的人是乐观的——他们看待生活的积极面,而不是消极面。
现在,我们都有问题,不管我们快乐与否。
但是当快乐的人遇到问题时,他们会认为事情会有所改善。

W: Did you hear about the Eastern Music Festival happening next month?M: Yes, I heard about it. I'm planning to go and enjoy some live performances.Part 2Passage 1Just picture this: You're walking down the street, coffee in hand, feeling good and confident. Suddenly, you trip and spill your coffee all over yourself. Embarrassing, right? But don't worry,everyone has unpleasant experiences like this sometimes. The key is to handle them with grace. Instead of panicking or feeling ashamed, try to stay calm and remember that accidents happen to everyone. Clean yourself up, laugh it off, and move on. People around you will admire your composure.Passage 2Feeling stressed out? Taking a walk outdoors may be just what you need. According to a recent study, spending time in nature can reduce stress and increase happiness. When you're surrounded by nature, your brain enters a state of relaxation, allowing you to focus better and be more creative. So next time you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, take a break and go for a walk in the park. You'll come back feeling refreshed and ready to tackle whatever challenges come your way.。

I’m a freshman at Peking University and I’m majoring in chemistry.At college we have to study a foreign language. I choose English because I like listening to English programs on the radio and TV. I also like British and American pop songs. Some day I hope to visit Britain and the United States.I started learning English several years ago and I’m getting better at it. My favorite activity is listening, especially listening to songs and stories. My big problem is, however, speaking. I feel nervous whenever I speak. And I never seem to know what to say when people talk to me. But I’ve decided to overcome my shyness and learn to speak English by speaking as much as I can.Hi, my name is Virginia Wang. I’m a library science major at the National Universityof Singapore. In our country, English is important. It is one of the official languagesand you have to be fluent to English to get a good job.I’ve been studying English since high school. I’m good at reading because I like learning about new things and new ideas. There are so many books and articles writtenin English. Our textbooks at the university are in English, too. I know writing is also very important, but I find it rally difficult.When I graduate from the university I would like a job in the city library where Ican read all kinds of new books.Exercise 1: b dExercise 2: 1)Yang 2)Chemistry 3)Likes listening to English programs on radio & TV; enjoys English pop songs 4) several years ago 5) listening; speaking6) Wang 7) Library science 8) To get a good job 9) in high school 10) reading; writingDialogue 11) may I sit here? 2) Sure. 3) Nice day 4) warm and sunny 5) computerDialogue 21) About four years 2) Very much 3) it’s very usefulDialogue 31) Listening 2) I find listening rather difficult 3) listen to this tape 4) Perhaps I shouldPart C1)skills 2)worry 3)focus 4)feel 5)understood 6)carefully 7)problems8)understand 9)main 10)detailsUnit 2Part A1.Closing2.Opening3.Closing4.Opening5.Opening6.Opening1-5 a b b a b 6-10.a b a b bPart BTapescript How to Improve Your Conversation SkillsTo speak to people in a foreign language requires courage and a willingness to make errors. Some people are so afraid of making mistakes that they never open their mouths. And that’s the biggest mistake of all. Now if you have courage and are ready to make a few errors, what do you say?First of all, you have to open the conversation. Finding an appropriate topic is half the battle. Some topics, such as the weather and news, work well. But others, such as age, money or people’s appearance do not. The following are some good ways to open a conversation.Weather – It sure is cold today, isn’t it?News – Did you hear about that terrible forest fire?A conversation in a foreign language doesn’t always go smoothly. Sometimes your partner talks too fast and you find it difficult to follow. Not to worry, though. You can always ask your partner to repeat what he has said or to speak more slowly. For example, “Excuse me, but could you say that again? I didn’t catch it.” Or “Could you speak more slowly, please?”At the end of a conversation you need to find a way to close it in a polite way. “Well, I really need to be going,” or “It was nice talking to you” are frequently used by people to end a conversation.Exercise 1: 1. b c a 2. DExercise 2: 1. a. age b. money c. people’s appearance2. a. say that again? I didn’t catch it. b. speak more slowly, please3. a. really need to be going b. nice talking to you.Dialogue 11. do you have a minute?2. What can I do for you3. several4.

Answer these four questions: What did you have for breakfastyesterday? What clothes did you wear last Friday? Who did you talk to yesterday? Wheredid you go last Saturday? If you can answer all four questions, you memory is verygood.Memory is important for leaning language skills. Education specialists in Englandwant to help people improve their reading abilities. They want students to rememberthe books and articles they read. The specialists found something to help: facial expressions. They gave ten students a happy article to read. Five of the studentsread the happy article while smiling. Five students read the happy article whilefrowning. Then they answered comprehension questions the smiling students rememberedmore of the happy article than the frowning students.Then the specialists gave ten students another article to read. It was an angry letterto the editor of a newspaper. Five students read the angry article while smiling,and five students read the angry article whiling frowning. Which group rememberedbetter? You’re right. The frowning students.The specialist don’t know why facial expressions help memory. They are continuingto study the relationship between the mind and the body. Until they find the answer,keep smiling (or frowning?)!Exercise:1. If one can answer all the four questions, his memory is thought to be good. (Ihear it.)2. The smiling student could remember more happy articles than the frowning students.(I hear it.)3. Education specialist from England haven’t found the best way to help people improve reading abilities. (I can not infer it.)4. The specialists are trying to explain the reason why facial expressions can help memory (I can infer it.)5. According to the speaker, facial expressions might affect a person’s memory.(I can infer it.)6. In the second group five students who read the angry letter while smiling remembered less.

But college professors do much more than go to class. The average professor spends between six and fifteen hours in the classroom weekly. And that same college professor works from sixty to eighty hours a week.Because they must remain current in their fields, professors spend part of that time reading, reading, reading. That leads to additional hours during which they revise and update their class lecture notes. It takes far longer to prepare notes than to deliver them in class. Professors may spend time conducting experiments, working on college projects, or advising students. They may be writing books, articles, or papers for delivery at conventions.When not in the classroom or in the office, professors are still working, behind closed doors in committee sessions or at home grading papers and preparing for tomorrow’s classes. To accept this sort of schedule willingly, they must feel strongly about the importance of the college experience.Exercise: 1. A busy life. 2. Between six and fifteen hours.3.They must remain current in their fields.4. They will revise and update them.Unit 4Part A1. 1) Yeah 2) By the way 3) Who 4) Don’t you think so? 5) Yes 6) Quite well2. 1) Like what 2) Yeah 3) Hmm, let me think 4) Well 5) Come to think of it1. 923812. 26083. 15404. 755. 1566. 9007. 84,2008. 1,7359. 9:40 10.5:45Part BTapescript Small Talk Is EasyA: Mike, guess what?B: What?A: Carol just invited me to a party at her house on Saturday.B: Carol? You mean the pretty girl in your economics class?A: Yeah.B: Great! I’m sure you’ll have a super time.A: I’m not so sure.B: What do you mean, John? I though you really liked Carol.A: I do. But I don't know her friends very well.B: So get to know them.A: But I’m no good at small talk.B: Small talk is easy. You can learn.A: By Friday?B: sure, I’ll coach you. You just have to remember a few simple sentences.A: I don't know. I have trouble remembering things. Especially when I meet people.I get nervous.B: Don’t worry, John. You can do it. You just need a few tips.A: But what if I say something stupid?B: Hey, you’re not giving a speech. You’re just having a conversation. So just talk about something you know they are interested in.A: That’s the problem. I don’t know what Carol’s friends are interested in.B: Let them tell you. If you let people talk about themselves, they’ll think you’re interesting.A: You mean something like, “So, tell me what you’re interested in.”B: Well, you don’t have to be that direct. For example, you can talk about the weather.A: You can’t be serious. The weather’s boring.B: It’s a good excuse to find out what they like to do. On a rainy day, you say, “What do you do in such terrible weather?”A: What if they just stayed home and read a book?B: Then ask them about the book. You can ask if it was good. Ask if they liked it and why. Then talk about a book you really liked.A: So that’s what small talk is about, is it? Well, I’ll give it a try. Thanks for the tips, Mike.B: You’re welcome. Have a good time at the party.Note:Small talk means light conversations on unimportant or non-serious subjects such as the weather or TV programs you saw last night, or little compliments on what people are wearing. In a social gathering where a lot of guests are strangers to one another, small talk can be very useful to make them feel at ease.Exercise 1: c a dExercise 2: 1. At Carol’s house on Saturday 2. He’s uncertain whether he can have a good time at the party or not 3. He’s not good at small talk 4. One should talk about something other people are interested in 5.

ThanksPart CTapescript Defective GoodsThe other day, Mrs. White bought some bed linen at a small store near her home. The store had a good reputation, and Mrs. White had often shopped there before. But when she got home and examined the sheets, Mrs. White was shocked. One of them had a big hole in the middle, and another was badly stained. And two others were frayed at the edges.As you can imagine, Mrs. White was very angry and she went back immediately to complain. When she arrived, the store was closed and the two other angry ladies were waiting outside. One of them told Mrs. White that she had bought some towels that morning, and the other lady said that she had purchased a linen tablecloth. In both cases the goods were defective. A little later some other women joined them, and they all told the same story.Finally the storekeeper appeared and let them in. The poor man looked very worried. He became very nervous when the ladies threatened to call the police, but he denied trying to cheat them. Then he explained what had happened. In his absence, the driverof a delivery truck had mistaken his shop for a secondhand goods store and had delivered a load of used material from a nearby hotel. The sales clerk had not bothered to check the delivery and had started selling the defective goods right away.The storekeeper apologized for the mistake and promised to exchange the ladies’purchases and to refund half the price. Needless to say he fired the careless assistant.Unit 7Part B: We Have an Opening NowMs. Campbell: Have a seat, Mr. Wells.

The poor boy spoiled everything he did and for that reason could never keep a job. He’d had many jobs over the years but only for a few weeks at a time. For six months, Fred was out of employment. Finally, he got a job in a warehouse where many different types of home furnishings were stored. Fred’s job was to unpack the merchandise newly arrived from the factory and put each item in its assigned place. The work was only temporary, but after so long with no employment at all it was better than nothing.One morning Fred unpacked a large and quite fragile vase. He picked it up to carry across the warehouse. But he had only walked two steps and he tripped. There was a loud crash as the vase fell from Fred’s hands and shattered into a thousand pieces.Fred was called immediately to the manager’s office, and he was sure he would be fired. The young man’s spirits began to drop.“I’ll have to deduct something from your wages every week until the vase is paid for,” the manager said sternly.“How much is the vase worth?” Fred asked.“$350”A wide grin spread across the young man’s face. “That’s wonderful!” he shouted happily. “At last I have a steady job!”Exercise 1: c b cExercise 2: 1. he was clumsy and spoiled everything he did.1.

To deduct part of Fred’s weekly wages until the vase was paid for.7. As it would take a long time to deduct $350 from his wages, he could keep the job while he was paying for the vase.Part C Mark HillMark Hill is a traffic police officer in Watford, near London. He works on some of the busiest Motorways in Britain, the M1 and the M25.There are traffic police on duty twenty-four hours a day. There are three shifts, and each shift is eight hours. On average they have to deal with three to four accidents each shift. Here is Mark Hill talking about his job:“We deal with anyone in the accident who is injured. That’s the first thing. Then we have to clear the road and get the traffic moving again.”“Most accidents happen because people drive too fast—especially when the roads are wet. Sometimes we get accidents that occur because drivers don’t follow the rules. For example, I’ve seen a number of cases of drivers overtaking on the left. This。

朗文英语听说教程1 U n i t1听力原文-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company One1Unit 1 HappinessPart 1Teacher: Hi, good morning. Did you hear about the lottery winner last nightThe man won…what?… Two million dollars…Student: No, three.Teacher: Three million dollars? Three million. That's a lot of money isn't itDo you think that three million dollars would make you happy? … I'm asking you this because when you ask people what they need to be happy, many people will answer" more money!" We assume that money will make us happier. But is this true Will winning the lottery help you achieve happiness?Today we're going to look at the idea of happiness, at the psychology of happiness--what makes some people happier than others. We'll look at three personality factors that we find in happy people. To find out about these personality factors, psychologists talked to hundreds of people. Now, first, they asked the people how happy they felt--you know, from "very happy" to "not happy at all." Then they asked some more questions, They wanted to find out about people's personalities, such as their attitudes about life, and so on. They looked at the differences between happy people and unhappy people. They found three factors that are very important for achieving happiness. So…let's look at those factor s now.The first personality factor is that happy people are…satisfied with themselves. This means that they like themselves as they are, and they’re happy with what they have. Happy people may not like everything about their lives-they may be a little bit overweight, or may not have the best job, or may not live in a big, fancy house, but they don't need to change those things to be happy. They think more about the things they are satisfied with, not the changes they want to make. This feeling of happiness comes from the inside, not from something outside.Part 2Teacher: So…happy people feel satisfied with themselves. On the other hand, unhappy people are often dissatisfied with themselves. They...uh...feel that something must change so they can be happy. They think if they lose some weight orget a better job or a nicer house they will be happy. They are always looking for something outside themselves to make them happy.But the problem is-they never find it! No matter what they get, they're still dissatisfied and unhappy.The second personality factor is that happy people are optimistic-they look at the positive side of life, not the negative. Now, we all have problems, whether we're happy or not. But when happy people have problems, they assume that things will improve. They don’t worry a lot and think about all the bad things that can happen. Instead, they have a positive attitude. However, unhappy people are the opposite. They are not optimistic and don't have a positive attitude. When they have a problem, they think about how bad everything is and assume that it'll get worse. So they make themselves even more unhappy when they think about all the bad things that might happen.Finally, the third personality factor is that happy people have good relationships with other people. They try to have close, loving relationships with friends and family. Studies show that close, loving relationships are one of the most important factors in achieving happiness. So happy people don't spend all their time building their careers or trying to make money. They also spend time building relationships with friends and family. Now, on the other hand, unhappy people don't have as many close relationships. They may have trouble making friends. Or they may spend all their time working and then find that they're very lonely and unhappy. But for whatever reason, they don't have close relationships and this makes them unhappy. So…what does this tell usWell, if you want to be happier, don't assume that winning the lottery will help. There are other, more important factors for achieving happiness. Now, let's take a break, and when we come back we'll talk more about the factors that make a person happy…1.What did psychologists want to find outa. Which people are happyb.

What three personality factors do happy people have?Happy people are satisfied with themselves. They are also optimistic about their pro blems. In addition, they have good relationships with their friends and family.。
