Unit 3II. Basic Listening Practice1.ScriptW: Chinese students are often too shy to say anything in class.M: I think they don’t speak because their culture values modesty，and they don’t want to be showing off. Goes back to Confucius.Q: Why don’t Chinese students say in class according to the man?C) They are modest.2.ScriptW: The government is doing something at last about sex discrimination in the work place. Women deserve the same pay as men for the same work.M: Yeah. In the United States, women earn only 70 percent of what men get for the same job. It’s a situation that has to be changed.Q: What does the man say about the women?A) They earn less than men.3. ScriptW: I admire Michael Dell. He had a dream to be the world’s largest manufacture of personal computers, and he has realized that dream.M: And he dropped out of university to become a success. I wonder if there is a lesson in that.Q: What do we learn about Michael Dell from the dialog?D) He succeeded in his career though he did not complete his education.4. ScriptM: Successful entrepreneurs are often self-made people who have a vision and know where they are going.W: But do they enjoy life like you and me, or is money their only concern?Q: What are the two speakers’ attitudes toward successful entrepreneurs?D) The man admires the entrepreneur but the woman does not.5. ScriptW:Do you agree that equal opportunity for all in an educational system is important？M: Yes, but we have to recognize that all of us are not of equal ability.Q: What does the man imply？A)We should acknowledge differences between students.III. Listening InTask 1: Competition in AmericaScriptAlan: What are you reading, Eliza?Eliza: An article on America competition.Alan: Competition is everywhere. Why so much fuss about it, Miss Knowledge? Eliza:Don’t make fun of me. According to the author, competition is especially important in American life. They’re taught to complete from early childhood.When children play games, they learn how to beat others.Alan: And many girls want to look more attractive than the girls sitting next to them in class. Do you think that way?Eliza: Don’t be silly. Let’s get back to the point. When children are growing up, they complete with one another in their studies.Alan: Is n’t that also true of students in other nations? As we all know, many Asian students would kill for a high test score and grab every opportunity to sharpen their competitive edge over others.Eliza:American boys find great pleasure in competing with each other in sports, according to the author.Alan:I do like sports. When our football team beats the other team, I feel great…makes me want to shout out loud. But isn’t that normal throughout the world? Eliza:American people also compete with each other at work and at climbing the social ladder.Alan: But there’s such competition in other countries as well.Eliza:You’re right in a sense, but the author says the idea of competing is more deeply rooted in the minds of Americans. They’re even taught that if you lose and don’t feel hurt, there must be something wrong with you.Alan: I hear that some Asians put emphasis on cooperation. Which approach do you think makes more sense?Eliza: It’s hard to say. Anyway, it’s just culture difference.Question and key:1.What is the dialog mainly about?C) Varies aspects of American competition.2.What is the woman reading?A) Reading an article on American competition.3.What do children learn from playing games according to the woman?C)Competitiveness.4.What does the man say about Asian and American students?B) Competition exacts among both Asian and American students.5. What does the woman think more sense, competition or cooperation?D) It’s difficult to arrive at a definite conclusion.Task2: Americans’ work ethicScript and keyFor 400 years or more, one thing has been a characteristic of Americans. It is called their“work ethic”. Its (S1) roots were in the teachings of the Christian Puritans who first settled in (S2) what is now the northeastern state of Massachusetts. They believed that it was their (S3) moral duty to work at every task to please God by their (S4) diligence, honesty, attention to details, skill, and attitude. To these Puritans, it was a (S5) sin to be lazy or to do less than your best in any task. They and later Americans tried to follow Bible’s (S6) teachings,“If a man will not work, he shall not eat.”Therefore, American have for (S7) centuries believed that they were guilty of sin if they did not work carefully and hard as they could when they did anything. God would punish those who were careless or lazy in their work. (S8) Even as children they were taught, “If it’s worth doing at all, it’s worth doing well.”But some people have gone beyond the usual sense of diligence. They are especially attracted to the notion of “climbing the ladder”so as to increase their status, financial position, and sense of self-worth.(S9) In English a new word has been created to describe people who work compulsively. The word “workaholic”describes an individual who is as addicted to work as an alcoholic is to alcohol.They are conflicting points of view about workaholics. Those concerned with problems of mental stress believe workaholics abuse themselves physically and mentally. (S10) Others hold that workaholics are valuable members of society because they are extremely productive. The American culture values achievement, efficiency, and production, and a workaholics upholds those values.Task3: Cross-cultural tips on doing businessScriptCountries from around the globe, such as Germany, the U.S., the U.K., and Russia, conduct a lot of business in China-the biggest market in the world. Here are some tips to help you deal more successfully with people from those nations.Firstly, you must be punctual with the Germans. Being even five minutes late makes a poor impression. Being punctual is also very important with Americans and the British. But while it’s important to be on time for business meetings, nobody expects you to be punctual for a social event. Half past seven is really means a quarter to eight, or even eight o’clock! With Russians, always be on time, but don’t be surprised if your Russian contact is very late! It is not unusual for them to be one or even two hours late!In the business environments of those four countries, it is best to wear formal clothes of dark colors. In Russia, designer clothes are rather common. However, don’t be surprised if you go to an office in the U.K., on a Friday and find everyone wearing jeans. Many companies in the U.K. have “dress down Fridays”, when people wear casual attire.In conversation, the British and the Americans love humor and talking about sports. The weather is also a good topic of conversation with the British, but you should avoid political talk. With the Russians, say positive things about their country, and avoid making complaints. The Germans, however, prefer to get straight down to business!Remember that with the Germans, once a deal has been agreed upon, you can’t change it! With the Americans, money is more important than relationships, whereas with Russians it’s important to get to know your contacts well. Also, don’t be surprised if a British meeting seems like a chaos, with everyone participating and giving opinions!Remember these tips and you will be on your way to a successful international career. Question and key:1.What is true of the Americans and the British in term of punctuality?D) They are punctual for business meetings, but less for social events?2.In which country do people have “dress down Fridays”?A) The U.K.3.What can you infer about the Russians from their conversation?D) They are patriotic.4.How can you do business well with the Russians?A) You should know your contacts well.5.What is the speaker’s attitude toward the four nationalities?C) He is neutral to all of them.IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1: Americans glorify individualism.ScriptSusan: John, I was looking for you. Where have you been hiding all morning? John: Well, I caught Professor Brown’s lecture on American individualism. Susan: Oh, how did you find it?John:Enlightening. Americans glorify individualism. They believe (1) individual interests rank above everything else.Susan:Sounds interesting. (2) It’s a sharp contrast to the oriental collectivism Professor Wang talked about last semester.John: But you should know that the individualism in the United States (3)is not necessarily an equivalent for selfishness.Susan: Then what does it mean in the States?John:They believe (4) all values, rights, and duties originate in individuals, so they emphasize individual initiative and independence.Susan:There could be something in that. Of course (5) an oriental countries the interests of the group are more important than anything else.John:So, it’s all the necessary for foreigners to understand American culture, or they can’t hope to understand the importance of privacy in the West. Susan: Maybe that’s the reason nuclear families outnumber extended families in the United States.John:Right on! You’re catching on fast!Susan: Now let me ask you a question.John: Shoot. Go ahead.Susan: (6) Why do Americans cherish individualism more than oriental people? John:I don’t know. Anyway, Professor Brown didn’t say.Susan: One reason might be that American children stop sleeping with their parents at an early age. They learn independence early, so it’s deeply rooted.John:Wow. That’s an intelligent guess!Model2: What do you think are the reasons for that difference?ScriptSusan:Do find that people in America often walk faster than people in China?American (1) always seems to be in a hurry.John:It’s hard to come to a definite conclusion. Some Americans walk in a leisurely way, and some Chinese hurry all the time. But on the whole, I think you’re right.Susan: (2) What do you think are the reasons for that difference?John: Americans treasure time. For them, time is tangible. It’s a thing. “Time is money.”You can “spend time”, “waste time”, “save time”. You can even “kill time”!Susan: (3) Does this strong sense of time affect their lifestyle?John:Sure. If you’re 20 minutes late for a business appointment, the other person or persons will be annoyed. They may not trust you anymore.Susan: But as far as I know, English-speaking people may be 15-30 minutes late for a dinner party.John: That’s true. For an informal occasion like that, punctuality is not so important.Also, a boss may keep his employees waiting for a long time.Susan:But if his secretary is late, she’s in trouble. She will probably receive a reprimand.John:How true!Susan: The American worship of time probably (4) let them to create fast food. John: I agree. And (5) globalization shrinks the differences between cultures. Now people everywhere are rushing, and anywhere you go, you find Kentucky Fried Chicken.Susan: But plenty of Chinese are still making appointments saying, “If I am late, wait for me.”John: But with more intercultural, I think (6) the gap will eventually be bridged, and Chinese will be hurrying everywhere.Model3: That’s the secret of their success. ScriptChris: Hey, Sue, how’s the math class going? Are you head of the class?Susan: Are you kidding? There’s a bunch of foreign students in the class-from China somewhere-and (1) they’re on top.Chris:Why do you think so many Chinese students excel in math? It’s been my observation that the Chinese students are usually the best.Susan: In class they don’t say much, but (2) they definitely get the best marks. Chris: I think part of it is their work ethic. (3) They never skip in class, and they pay attention.Susan: One Chinese student in my class (4) did homework each day until the early hours. He never took a break, watched TV, or went out for a beer.Chris: (5) That’s the secret of their success: hard work and diligence.Susan:It’s so unfair. I could probably do better if I worked harder, but that’s no fun. I think learning should be more fun.Chris:Someone with a knowledge of chess would find a chess tournament fascinating. But if you don’t have the knowledge, then you won’t understand the significance of the moves, and you’ll be bored.Susan:So what you’re saying is knowledge requires hard work, and knowledge makes things interesting. I’m not against knowledge; (6) I just want to learn in an interesting way. What’s more, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.“Ⅴlet’s talkInternational Slavery MuseumScriptThe international Slavery Museum has opened at Albert Dock, in Liverpool. Many people travelled from all over the world to celebrate the opening on 23rd of August. The museum is a place of reflection, contemplation and education.It tells the story of the cruel acts of the transatlantic slave trade, the stories of the lives of the millions of Africans people, who were forced from their homelands onto ships that sailed to unknown lands where they were made to work on farms and in mines in harsh conditions without dignity or payment.Liverpool is one of the many British seaports that became very rich from money made transporting goods such as cotton and sugar, produced by African slaves.One of the most important parts of the museum’s exhibits are the stories of the lives of people who live all over the world today, whose family history can be traced to the Africans whose lives were changed forever by the transatlantic slave trade.It has taken four years of the hard work and planning to organise the creation of the museum, and its opening year is a very significant date because in 2007 we commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act.This was a law made in 1807; it banned all British people from taking part in the slave trade. Later in 1833 all people who had been forced into slavery to work for British companies were freed.Key:1.It tells the story of the cruel acts of the (1) transatlantic slave trade, the stories ofthe lives of the millions of African people, who were forced from their homelands onto ships that sailed to (2) unknown lands where they were made to work on farms and in mines in harsh conditions without (3) dignity or payments.2.Liverpool is one of the many British seaports that became very (1) rich from manymade transporting goods such as (2) cottons and sugar, produced by African slaves.3.One of the most important parts of the museum’s exhibits are the stories of thelives of people who live (1) all over the world today, whose (2) family history can be traced to the Africans whose lives were (3) changed forever by the transatlanticslave trade.4.Because 2007 marks the 200th anniversary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act.5. A law made in 1807; it (1) banned all British people from (2) taking part in theslave trade. Later in 1833 all people who had been forced into (3) slavery to work for British companies were (4) freed.ⅥFurther listening and speakingListeningTask1 PunctualityScriptTo Americans, punctuality is a way of respect for other people’s time. Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology and maybe an explanation. People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay. Of course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on time. At informal get-togethers, for example, people can arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time. But they usually don’t try that at work.American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others. When people plan an event, they often set the time days or weeks in advance. Once the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to change it. If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient. Only very close friend will just “dropped in”unannounced. Also, people hesitate to call others late at night for fear they might already be in bed. The time may vary, but most people think twice about calling after 10:00p.m.To outsiders, Americans seem tied to the clock. People in some Eastern cultures value relationships more than schedules. In these societies, people don’t try to control time, but to experience it. Many Eastern cultures, for example, view time as a cycle. The rhythm of nature- from the passing of seasons to the monthly cycle of the moon-shapes their view of events. If they have wasted some time or let an opportunity pass by, they are not very worried, knowing that more time and opportunities will come in the next cycle. But Americans often want to jump at the first opportunity. They are unwilling to stand by idly and give up the opportunity.The early American hero Benjamin Franklin expressed that view of time like this: “Do you love life? Then do not waste time, for that is the stuff life is made of.”Question and key:1.When people are running late in America, what do they do?C) They call ahead to inform others of their delays.2.What do Americans do after the time for an appointment is fixed?B) They change it only when there is an emergency.3.How do people in Eastern cultures view relationships and schedules?A) Relationships are more important than schedules.4.Why aren’t some Eastern people worried if they let an opportunity pass by?C) Another opportunity will come in next cycle.5.What was Benjamin Franklin’s view of time?D) It is part of life.Task2: Our personal spaceScriptOur personal space, that piece of the universe we occupy and call our own, is contained within an invisible boundary surrounding our body. As the owners of this area, we usually decide who may enter and who may not. When our space is invaded, we react in a variety of ways. We back up and retreat, stand our ground as our hands become moist from nervousness, or sometimes even react violently. Our response shows not only our unique personality, but also our cultural background.For example, cultures that stress individualism such as England, the United States, Germany, and Australia, generally demand more space than collective cultures do, and tend to aggressive when their space is invaded. The idea of space is quite different from the one found in the Mexican and Arab cultures. In Mexico, the physical distance between people when engaged in conversation is closer than what is usual north of the border. And for Middle Easterners, typical Arab conversations are at close arrange. Closeness cannot be avoided.As is the case with most of our behavior, our use of space is directly linked to the value system of our culture. In some Asian cultures, for example, employees do not stand near their bosses; the extended distance demonstrates respect. Extra interpersonal distance is also part of the cultural experience of the people of Scotland and Sweden, for whom it reflects privacy. And in Germany, private space is scared. Key:1.T2. F3.T4. F5. FTask3: We don’t know what to do with them.ScriptA Russian, a Cuban, an American businessman, and an American lawyer were passengers on a fast train speeding across the French countryside. As time wore on, they gradually became friendly with one another, introducing themselves and shaking hands. Eventually, the Russian took out a large bottle of vodka and poured each of his traveling companions a drink. Just as the American businessman was sipping the vodka and praising its fine quality, the Russian hurled the half-full bottle out of the open window.“What did you do that for?”asked the startled American businessman.“V odka is plentiful in my country,”said the Russian. “In fact, we have thousands and thousands of liters of it-far more than we need.”The American businessman shook his head and leaned in his seat, obviously baffled by the Russian’s reasoning .A little later, the young Cuban passed around a box of fine Havana cigars. The men enjoyed this treat and made admiring remarks about the pleasure of smoking good Havana cigars. At that very moment the Cuban took a couple of puffs of his cigar and then tossed it out of the open window.“I thought the Cuban economy was not good this year,” the American businessman said,“Yet you threw that perfectly good cigar away. I find your actions quite puzzling.”“Cigars,” the Cuban replied, “are a dime a dozen in Cuba. We have more of them than we know what to do with.”The American businessman sat in silence for moment. Then he got up, grabbed the lawyer, and threw him out of the window.Key:1.The Russian hurled the half-full bottle of vodka out of the open window.2.He answered, “V odka is plentiful in my country. In fact, we have thousands andthousands of liters of it-far more we need.”3.The businessman said, “I thought the Cuban economy was not good this year. Yetyou threw that perfectly good cigar away. I find your actions quite puzzling. ”4.He replied, “Cigars are a dime a dozen in Cuba. We have more of them than weknow what to do with.”5.The American businessman sat in silence for moment. Then he got up, grabbedthe lawyer, and threw him out of the window. He did that probably because he thought there were too many lawyers in the United States.Viewing and speakingReviving the image of tea1.Script and keyVoice-over: Walk down any high street and you can’t help noticing the explosion of trendy coffee shops. The old style of cafes are gradually (1) disappearingto make way for the caffeine culture. As people become espresso fiendsand cappuccino connoisseurs, designer coffees are (2) kicking thetraditional British beverage-tea-off the menu. But there are still a fewoases of calm.[On-screen text: Charlotte Grindling.]Voice-over:Charlotte Grindling is a design guru and a tea fanatic.Charlotte:I’ll have a pot of house blend please.Waitress:OK, and a cream.Charlotte:Yes, thank you. Here we are in a quintessentially English (3) tea shop. I love these places. Look, they even give you a doily. But the problem isthat tea is undergoing an (4) image crisis. You think of your granny, teaat four, the flat cap. But with the explosion of the new coffee shopshitting the high street, the question is: How is tea going to (5) update itsimage？Voice-over:One tea manufacturing company saw a niche in the market for a chain of tea shops to (6) compete with the American-style coffee shops thatdominate the high street. But to compete successfully, they needed a teamachine that made quality tea as (7) fast as the coffee machines makecoffee. They turned to the company Design Bridge for help.David: I’m David.Richard:I’m Richard.David:We work for Design Bridge.Richard:And we design things like that.David:And that.Richard:And that.David:Yeah, and that.Richard: And this one.David:In fact, all of these.Voice-over:David and Richard are (8) product designers.They’re responsible for repackaging many familiar high street brands. Repackaging tea was justone of their briefs and it was because of the (9) contacts that they madewith the tea company that they got the job of designing the tea machine. [On-screen text: David Helps.]David:we met up with our client in a place (10) similar to this, and he said he wanted a tea machine to fit into a load of tea shops he was launching theyear after. So he all spun around and looked at that, and said actually Ithink that’s the sort of thing we (11) want.[On-screen text: Richard Rees.]Richard:The trouble is there it’s a beautiful coffee machine. It’s been around for 30 years, it’s got this gorgeous Italian styling: lots of chrome, lots ofstainless steel, but we weren’t sure whether that style was what weneeded for a tea machine. So that was our (12challenge: What’s the rightstyle for a new tea machine?Voice-over:Faced with creating a new product from scratch, David and Richard would need a design brief. The brief is crucial because they need toknow about the (13) consumer before they can design the product. Thereis a (14) traditional way of finding out what the consumer wants andcreating this design brief.。

Unit 3 听力原文Part IBSam: I won?t be able to do the exam tomorrow. I just don?t feel that I?m ready.Counselor: You say that you don?t feel ready for tomorrow?s exam ... what do you feel like right now?Sam: Well, I?m angry with myself because I?m going to have to quit the exam and, well, I guess I?m anxious. Yes, I feel very anxious.Counselor: When you think about this anxiety, what image do you have of yourself?Sam: Well, I see myself trying to explain to my Dad why I didn?t make the grade on this course ... and I see him getting angry ... and, well, I start to feel I?ve let him down again.Counselor: You don?t feel ready for your exam, you feel anxious and you don?t want to let your Dad down again. Tell me about the last time you let your Dad down.Sam: Oh, well, it was a year ago ... He?d entered me for a chess competition and I got knocked out in the first match ... he was angry because he?d told all his friends how good I was.Counselor: What did you tell him ... as an explanation when you lost the chess game?Sam: I told him that I wasn?t ready to play in that league.Counselor: And now you are preparing to tell him that you?re not ready to sit this examination? Sam: Yes, I suppose I am.Counselor: O.K. Sam, so what you are saying to me is that you feel reluctant to take the exam tomorrow because you do not like the thought of having to explain a poor grade or a failure toyour father. Is that right, Sam?Sam: Yes. That?s exactly it.C1. A: When I read in English, I always want to understand every single word and so I spend a lotof time looking words up in my dictionary. This makes reading difficult for me because by the time I?ve looked up the word in my dictionary, I?ve forgotten what the rest of the sentence was about. That?s my trouble really — I rely too much on my dictionary.B: Well, why don?t you try to read a text without using your dictionary the first time you read it? You?ll probably be able to understand most of it and guess what some of the words mean.2. A: I have to read a lot of books and articles in English for my work —I?m a consultant in business management. What I find most difficult is finding the main point in an article or a paragraph. I always try to take notes when I?m reading and so sometimes I find that I?m almost copying out the whole article because I can?t decide what the really important points are.B: It might help if you read through the book or article very quickly first just to get an idea ofwhat it?s about. I think it?s difficult to read something for the first time and take notes as well.3. A: I like reading novels and short stories in my own language and in English, but there?s one thing I find very difficult in English. I?m never quite sure if the writer is being serious or not. Several times I?ve read something I thought was serious and later I?ve found out it was supposed to be funny.B: I have exactly the same problem. I suppose the only thing to do is to read as much as possible. Then one day perhaps we?ll understand the British sense of humor.4. A: I have to read a lot in English in my studies and this is causing me problems. I read too slowly in English. Do you think I can train myself to read quickly and at the same time understandwhat I?m reading?B: Well, there are special courses in speed reading, I think. But you could probably help yourself if you set yourself a time limit and try to read as much as you can within the time. I?ve done that and it?s helped me a lot.Par tⅡ(Part I)Yes, the teacher I remember best was a teacher I had for French when I was at school ... er ... er ... Many years ago - more years than I care to remember, I?m afraid. Yes, I studied French with him for, um, ooh, let me see, it must have been five years, because I had him when I was in myfirst year there, when I was thirteen, and he was the main French teacher till I left. It was mainly because of him that I went on to study languages — French and German — at university. I mean, French was really the first language I ever learned. Well, I don?t count Latin, because I never managed to speak any Latin at all. Er, well, this ... this teacher didn?t make it easy ... he didn?t make it easy at all, but I found that with him I really learned a lot.When I think back, I ... don?t really know why I liked him so much, because he was very strict with us. He made us work very hard — I mean, lots of grammar exercises, vocabulary tests, that sort of thing — er, and he wasn?t very friendly either, for the first two or three years. Oh, as well as that, he didn?t really try to make the classes interesting —I mean, no ... no video, of course, in those days, no cassettes ... but, er, we had a few films in French every term. No, in fact, the only time we really practiced trying to speak French was, er, was with the wife of one of the music teachers, who was French, er, and she gave us an hour?s conversation class every week. But, you know, because of that man — some people might say in spite of him ... no, that wouldn?t be fair, no — but quite a lot of us began to like France and the French a lot, and, er, to visit France in the summer holidays to see it for ourselves.(Part II)Yes, I think with him I learned that when you learn a foreign language ... it?s, it ... well, it?s like opening a door or a ｗｉｎｄｏｗinto a foreign country. And that?s good for you, I think, because you begin to see that the way they do things and think in your country is, um, isn?t necessarily the only way or, indeed, the best way.It?s funny, I still have a very clear picture of that teacher. He was English but he didn?t look English somehow, ,cos he had very, very black hair and very dark eyes, and he wore glasses with black frames, but you could see his eyes very well, and everyone in the class always had the feeling that he was looking at them. And he had very thick, bushy eyebrows that made him look very, er, very serious.Yes, I remember he was very musical —played the piano very well and sang. Now, he was quite a good rugby and tennis player. Great family man, too. He had three children and a very interesting wife. I suppose he must have been in his thirties when I knew him ...PartⅢChildren of a Decadekeep in touch with：保持联系soak：浸泡come to：到达;共计;突然想起put sb. off：使人离开、气馁bring tears to：使落泪emblazon：颂扬，盛饰decade：十年teddy：妇女连衫衬裤chap：小伙子，小家伙，家伙Lake District：湖区porridge：粥;麦片粥;稀饭incident：事件，事变goody-goody：会巴结的人hymn：赞美诗;圣歌homesick：思乡病favorite：中意的worst：最坏的marvelous：非凡的;神乎其神shy：害羞的stupid：笨Presenter: In this edition of our series “Children of a Decade” I?ll be talking to Jack Thompson, who was born in 1940, and to Shirley Sutton, who was born in 1930. First of all, Jack, thanks for joining us. Perhaps ...Jack: Not at all.Presenter: Perhaps you?d tell us about your memories of your first holiday away from home?Jack: Oh ... yes ... um ... at age ten I think it was, yes, I went to stay with an aunt at the seaside. Well, it wasn?t a very happy experience. I felt very homesick at first.Presenter: Mmm. And what about your first day at school, can you remember that?Jack: Yes, I can. Er ... er ... I was five years old and I wanted to take all my toys with me but ...er ... they wouldn?t let me. In the end it was agreed that I could take my teddy ... er ... but only on the first day.Presenter: Oh, I see. Your school days, were they happy ones?Jack: Well ... er ... I didn?t have a very good time at school — I wasn?t very bright, you see. And the teachers didn?t seem to like me, but ... er ... I made a lot of friends and some of them I stillkeep in touch with. One of them I married.Presenter: Oh, that?s wonderful. Well, did you have a favorite teacher?Jack: Miss Robinson ... or was it ... no, it was Miss Robson. My first teacher, that?s right yeah ...very kind. Marvelous storyteller.Presenter: And who was your worst teacher?Jack: Mr. Goodman, that?s right. We used to call him “Goody”. Yeah, he pulled your ear if you made a mistake or talked in class. Yeah, my left ear is still bigger, look.Presenter: Ha ha. Perhaps you can tell us about your last day at school?Jack: My last day, oh yeah, that?s emblazoned on my mind. Oh, I wanted to get my own back you see on old Mr. Goodman — the chap we used to call ... er ... “Goody”— so I put this bucket of water over the classroom door but it fell on him and he got soaked, you see. Ha ha. I?ve never seen anyone so angry. Oh, it was a good one, that.Presenter: Thank you very much, Jack. And now Shirley.Shirley: Yes.Presenter: Now, can you tell me about your first holiday away from home?Shirley: Oh yes ... er ... yes ... er ... at the age of eight it was. We went on holiday to the Lake District. We stayed at a little guest house, just me and my parents. Er ... I remember we had ... er ... honey for breakfast with ... er ... the toast and ... oh ... and porridge — I hated it.Presenter: That sounds lovely? Oh, porridge, you hated it?Shirley: Ha ha.Presenter: Well, what about your first day at school?Shirley: Well, I ... I ... I don?t remember any special incidents ... er .... Oh, I was very frightened and shy at first ... er ... I ... I know that, I can remember, but I soon came to enjoy school. Presenter: So your school days, were they happy?Shirley: Oh yes, I loved school! Oh, I was sorry when half-term came and... and when the holidays came. Oh, perhaps this was because I was a bit of a goody-goody.Presenter: And what about your teachers? Did you have a favorite?Shirley: I did, yes. I remember her well, she was called Miss Brown and she was our history teacher. Oh, she really made history come to life, she really did.Presenter: Were there any bad moments? Did you have a worst teacher?Shirley: Aye, I did and I can remember her name too. Her name was Mrs. Sharpe and she taught math. Oh, she had no patience. I wasn?t all that good at math and she always said to me, “You stupid girl!” It put me off math for life.Presenter: Oh, what a shame.Shirley: I know.Presenter: Perhaps you could tell me about your last day at school?Shirley: Oh yes, well, I?m afraid I cried. We sang our favorite hymn at the end of the term and I cried. It brought the tears to my eyes.Presenter: Oh, and it?s bringing a tear to my eye now. Thank you very much.Shirley: Thank you.Presenter: And thank you too, Jack Thompson, thank you very much. Next week we?ll be hearing from two people who were born in 1920 and 1910. So from me, Libby Freeman, good-bye.PartⅣSchool reportschool report：学生成绩报告单safety：安全quality：质量empowered：授权;准许;使能够involvement：投入，介入guarantee：保障superior：（级别、地位）较高的;（在质量等方面）较好的;（数量）较多的;上...concentrate：集中comment：评论intelligent：聪明的;[计]智能的give up on sb：放弃biology：生物学;生物well above：好于guide back：保证geography：地理（学）oral：口头go to pieces：零散average：平均positive：积极come bottom：打底attitude：态度look on the bright side：看好的一面hockey：曲棍球Mrs. Daniels: Oh, hello, you must be Tracey?s parents? Mr. Thompson: Er, yes. Are you her class teacher, Mrs. Daniels?Mrs. Daniels: Yes, that?s right. Now, just let me find my notes. As you know I don?t actually teach Tracey, but I do see her every day before classes begin. Is there anything you want to ask me?Mr. Thompson: Well, yes, to be honest we?re a bit worried about her last report -- she doesn?t seem to be doing as well as she was.Mrs. Daniels: Well now, let?s see. Oh, yes, her math teacher says she?s finding the work more difficult now that they?re getting near to the exams. Mrs. Thompson: I was never any good at math.Mrs. Daniels: And Dr. Baker feels that Tracey isn?t concentrating very hard in biology lessons. Mrs. Thompson: Oh, but she really likes biology and she?s so good at drawing.Mrs. Daniels: Yes, but even in art her teacher thinks she tends to spend too much time talking toher friends. In fact, several of her teachers have told me that she isn?t giving in her homework. Mr. Brock has complained to me that he hasn?t had a single piece of geography homework from her all term.Mr. Thompson: Yes, we don?t know what to do about it. She doesn?t seem to be interested in school any more.Mrs. Daniels: I don?t think we should give up on her. Tracey?s a very intelligent girl. In English her marks are well above the average and her teacher says she always has a lot to say in lessons. Mrs. Thompson: Yes, that?s part of Tracey?s trouble. She talks too much.Mrs. Daniels: Well, nevertheless, oral skills are very important and if we can all guide her back toa more positive attitude to school work, she?ll do very well.Mr. Thompson: Well I hope so. I?m very disappointed in her. She was doing so well, especially in English and French, and now everything seems to be going to pieces. She came bottom of the class in French this term.Mrs. Daniels: Well it?s not because she can?t do French — she just prefers to chat in English! At least she?s doing well in sport. She?s in the hockey team and you know we haven?t lost a single match this year!Mr. Thompson: Well, it?s nice to know she does something well.Mrs. Daniels: Oh, come now, Mr. Thompson, let?s look on the bright side.Part V Memory test: Study HabitsMan: Do you find that you get a lot of students asking you for advice about revision techniques? Woman: Well, yes, I mean, they do, but, when they?ve got quite big exams coming up, (yeah), you know I really find it quite a problem because (pause) (laugh) well, I don?t have to revise myself very often these days, and ... but when I ... when I was at university, erm I mean, well, it just seems to be a matter of what suits one person doesn?t suit another. (Oh yeah) I mean, because,well, the girl I shared a house with at university. Now she worked, erm, she used to get up amazingly late, and, er, she didn?t really start work until, er, in the evening I think, an?, then she liked to have rock music on really loud an? she used to, you know, play records really loud right through until sort of very late at night, you know, into the small hours (Oh God!) and I was, sort of, well I was just the opposite and er, well, the only way I could ever get any work done was to make myself wake up incredibly early and well, then work a bit and have some breakfast and, then, well, you know, I?d sort of potter about a bit and then I?d go and do my shopping and things, well that?d be about getting on towards midday, but then in the afternoon I?d have a rest and when I woke up I?d think about eating and I suppose I?d call that my supper, and but, er, I mean she was, I mean, it was her lunch or even her brunch that she was having at that time.Man: Yeah, yeah, I suppose I?m a bit like you really. I like to get up fairly early, say around seven, might have a cup of coffee, and... before I started get myself totally organized so that I knew ... exactly what I was doing, get it all organized, and then work solidly, well maybe do six hours revision without stopping and that was the only way I could do it.Woman: Yes, yes, and would you say to yourself, you know, er, “well, I?m gonna do six hours today and I?m not gonna, go, I?m not gonna have any fun until I?ve done six hours,”?Man: Yeah, it was very much like that, erm, an unpleasant thing that you had to regulate.Woman: Mmm. I mean, well, I just hate revising anyway, I mean, you know I hate that sort of thing, I mean, and in fact, I did very little solid, sensible work, and, er ... what I?d do is, because I was doing literature, I used to re-read the novels, you know, on the course, and I?d have ... erm ... classical music on the radio, because well I used to find that I used to get very bored if there was just nothing, you know nothing at all in the background.Man: Yes, I think of the people who do revise, there are two sorts, there are those who ... work almost by topic, they select a topic, and plough through it regardless, and then, there are, there are those who set themselves a time limit of an amount to be done rather than working through a specific topic regardless of the limit ... of time ... as I say ...。
