PASSAGE1A study reported that life expectancy has fallen or is no longer increasing in some parts of the United States. The situation is worst among poor people in the southern states, and especially women. Public health researchers say it is largely the result of increases in obesity, smoking and high blood pressure. They also blame differences in health services around the country.In 2006, a study found that only 4% of elementary schools provided daily physical education all year for all grades.This was true of 8% of middle schools and 2% of high schools. The study also found that 22% of all schools did not require students to take any P.E.Charlene Burgeson is the executive director of the National Association for Sport and Physical Education. She says one problem for P.E. teachers is that schools are under pressure to put more time into academic subjects.Also, parents may agree that children need exercise in school. Yet many parents today still have bad memories of being chosen last for teams because teachers favored the good athletes in class.But experts say P.E. classes have changed. They say the goal has moved away from competition and toward personal performance, as a way to build a lifetime of activity. These days, teachers often lead activities like weight training and yoga.Some parents like the idea of avoiding competitive sports in P.E. class. Yet others surely dislike that idea. In the end, schools may find themselves in a no-win situation.参考译文：2006年,一项调查发现只有4%的小学全年给所有年级的学生安排了每日活动时间。

Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake. The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But the stove was a mess now. Jenna told Jeff to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge. But Jeff’s hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. Jenna made him put his hand in cold water. Then she caught the smell of burning. Oh dear!

❖Dialogue 2 Gestures
❖I. What is a gesture?
❖ A gesture is a form of non-verbal communication made with a part of the body, used instead of or in combination with verbal communication. The language of gesture allows individuals to express a variety of feelings and thoughts, from contempt and hostility to approval and affection. Most people use gestures and body language in addition to words when they speak. The use of gesture as language by some ethnic groups is more common than in others, and the amount of such gesturing that is considered culturally acceptable varies from one location to the next.
❖ His youthful followers became known
as "Nader's Raiders."
❖ He ran for president in 1996 and 2000
as a candidate for the Green Party.
❖ Critics accused Nader of taking votes away from Democrat Al Gore in the 2000 elections, as Gore narrowly lost to Republican George W. Bush.

What challenges does a job applicant face and what qualification is an applicant require to have in order to compete in the global job market?·What do you think of “home office”or working at home?Sect ion ⅠListening StrategiesListening for the Main Ideas (Part Ⅰ)Part ⅠDefinitionEfficient listeners listen to acquire the main ideas from the message. You should, therefore, concentrate primarily on the main points rather than small details. If your goal is to understand what the listening text is mainly about and to recall, at a later time, no more than 25 percent of what you have listened to today, you should strive to concentrate on the key concepts rather all the details.There are several ways you can become in identifying the main ideas. First, understand clearly the purpose and direction of your listening task. For the current purpose, you will strive to get the main idea of the entire message and understand the main concepts in the text. Second, you can get familiar with the positions where most main ideas would occur. For example, it may occur in the title, or shortly afterthe introduction of the topic, or it may even be repeated throughout the speech since the speaker would often repeat main points. The main points may be stated again in the summary of the speech. It is also possible that the main ideas are subtly implied and suggested, so you should listen to the whole text and guess the meaning from the context.Part ⅡConsolidationListen to the passage and write down the main idea.Section ⅡListening ComprehensionPart ⅠDialoguesDialogue 1A PrelisteningDiscussion1.Why would you think enthusiasm is very important for a job?2.Why would you think interpersonal skills are necessary fora particular job?
