UNIT 6 Section One Tactics for Listening Part 1 Spot Dictation Wind and Spirit

We do notice the wind when it seems (1) cruel, when the trees turn away from it, and it (2) cuts into our hearts. "Certain winds will make men's (3) temper bad", said George Eliot. In Southern California, the Santa Ana is (4) associated with an increase in depression and domestic (5) violence. Scientists have tried (6) without success to identify physiological reasons for these (7) reactions.Everyone agrees, however, that (8) dry winds like the Santa Ana, the mistral in France and the foehn* in Germany and Switzerland seem to have (9) negative effects on our mental and physical (10) negative effects. On windy days, playground fights, (11) suicides and heart failures are more (12) frequent. In Geneva, traffic accidents (13) increase when a wind called the bise* blows. At the (14) request of patients, some Swiss and German hospitals (15) postpone surgery during the foehn. It is human to ask what is (16) behind the wind. lt is easy to personify the wind as the (17) breath of God. The act of taking wind into our lungs is what (18) gives us life. The Jews, Arabs, Romans and Greeks all took their word for (19) spirit from the word for wind. But our day-to-day lives are no longer (20 spirit the winds. We do not identify wind with spirit anymore.

Section Two Listening Comprehension Part 1 Dialogue What a Coincidence! Storyteller: Talking of coincidences, did I tell you about what happened to me and Jeannie last holiday? Friend(s):No. Storyteller: We went on holiday in the States and we went to Mexico. Well, we were driving down to Mexico City. We were going to spend a few days in Palm Beach ... see the sea, look up an old friend, you know. As we left there we stopped at a garage for a car check ... oil, the water, the tires, all that ... petrol. And the mechanics spotted something. They said that our fuel pump was not working properly and it was quite serious ... it would cost a lot of money ... well, we were very worried. Friend(s): Were you insured? Storyteller: Well, no, we weren't and I didn't have that much money on me, you know. It was meant to be a cheap holiday. Well, just then, two men drove up and they said what's the problem? And, do you know? They were mechanics - it was such good luck. They looked at our car and they said, "There's nothing wrong with your car. Don't spend money on it. Just forget about it." Well, naturally, we were worried, but ... er, I thought ... I'll trust them, I think they're right. So, we drove on, we crossed the Mexican border and had a marvelous few days sightseeing there round Monterey. Friend(s):Oh, oh, brilliant ... jealous ... Storyteller: And then we went on and on to Mexico City. We drove about forty kilometers and then we saw a car with the same US number plates as the other car we'd seen in Palm Beach. Friend(s): You're joking! Storyteller: It was parked by the road, and the same two men who gave us the advice about our car were stuck with their car. Friend(s): Oh, no! Storyteller: So, we stopped and asked them what was wrong. And do you know? Their car had broken down for exactly the same reason: The fuel pump wasn't working! It was quite extraordinary .

Experts have to work on the problem of getting accurate descriptions from witnesses.5. Witnesses give better descriptions when they are encouraged to recall the scene ofthe crime.:B. Listen to a talk about identifying criminals. Take notes and complete the followingoutline.Can computers help the police to identify criminals Experts now think computers can make it easier for the police to find people they want to question.At present, the system most widely used by the British police is called Photofit.Witnesses describe a suspect and then a picture is built up like a jigsaw, using five different sets of features. These are: hair, eyes, nose, mouth and chin. This system can be very useful in finding criminals, but only in one case out of twenty. Quite often, almost half the time, in fact, Photofit pictures are misleading. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, the picture may look nothing at all like the suspect. Secondly, the likeness may be so general that it is not at all helpful. And unfortunately, a bad likeness can lead to the arrest of an innocent person.Witnesses’ attitudes can influence their descri ptions. In a recent experiment, a group of people was shown a picture of a man and told that he was a mass murderer. When asked to produce Photofit pictures of this man, they made pictures that showed a murderous-looking individual. But at the same time, a second group was shown the same picture and told that the same man was a lifeboat captain who had received a medal for bravery. When the second group produced Photofit pictures, these showed a man who was handsome and well-groomed.The police have another way of identifying criminals. Police records contain tens of thousands of photographs of people convicted of crimes. Witnesses can look through these in the hope of recognizing suspects; however, it has been discovered that a witness begins to forget the culp rit’s features after spending a long time looking through these photographs.A computer system called FRAME (Face Retrieval and Matching Equipment) combinesthe best features of both methods. All the photographs on record are put on the computer file. When a witness describes a suspect, the computer searches the file for photographs that fit the description. The witness is then presented with a small number of photographs to look through.Of course, this system, as it exists at present, will only help to identify people whose photographs are already on police files. So now, experts have to work on the problem of getting accurate descriptions from witnesses. One thing they have discovered is that witnesses give better descriptions when they are encouraged to recall the scene of the crime.They do not need to go there; just imagining the scene works just as well.Key<A. 1.

It happened just over a year ago.Interviewer: And where was thisMr. Burton: Near my home in Aldershot, in the south of England. I live near the bigmilitary base in Aldershot.Interviewer: What time of day was itMr. Burton: It was about one o’clock in the morning. I was out fishing. The weatherforecast said it was going to be a warm, clear night with no clouds, andthat’s perfect for fishing.Interviewer: And what happenedMr. Burton: Well, I saw a bright light coming towards me at about three hundred feet,and then it started to land. It was behind some trees, but I could see itclearly because there was a full moon. Then I saw two forms comingtowards me, and when they were about five feet away, they just stoppedand looked at me for a good ten or fifteen seconds.Interviewer: What did they look like!Mr. Burton: They were quite small, about four feet tall, dressed in green suits fromhead to foot, and they had helmets of the same colour with a red visor*,so I couldn’t see their faces. They both carried space guns.Interviewer: Did they speak to youMr. Burton: Yes. The one on the righ t said “Come this way, please.”Interviewer: Weren’t you frightened ... I mean, weren’t you surprised that they spokeEnglishMr. Burton: They spoke in a funny accent. It sounded more like a machine talkingthan a person. No, I wasn’t frightened. I don’t know why. The one whospoke started to walk towards the light, and I followed him, with theother one behind me. We got to a wall and the first “form” just walkedthrough it! I coul dn’t believe it! I had to climb over it, and then we got tothe spaceship.Interviewer: What did that look likeMr. Burton: It was about forty-five feet across, and silver, very, very shiny, and therewere round windows all round the side.Interviewer: Did you go insideMr. Burton: Yes, I did. There were steps going up, and we went into an octagonal*room. I stood there for about ten minutes. The walls, the floor, and theceiling were all bla ck. I couldn’t see any controls or instruments, butthere was a central column going up from the floor to the ceiling, aboutfour feet wide, right in the middle of the room.Interviewer: Were there any more of these “forms”/Mr. Burton: No, just the two. Suddenly, one of them said “Stand under the red light.”I couldn’t see any red light, but then I moved to the right and I could seeit up on the wall, just under the ceiling. I stood there for about fiveminutes, and then a voice said “What is your age” I said“Seventy-four.”Then they told me to turn around. After about five more minutes one ofthem said “You can go. You are too old and ill for our purposes.” So I leftand went back, to the river.Interviewer: Did the spaceship take offMr. Burton: Yes, I heard a very high-pitched noise, like a scream, and the thing tookoff straight into the sky and disappeared. I sat by the river and watchedit go. This was about two o’clock.Interviewer: Then what did you doMr. Burton: Next morning I went to the police, and in the afternoon someone fromthe Ministry of Defense came to my house to interview me. He told meto keep quiet about the whole thing, and tell absolutely no one. Ithought this was very strange, but I did as he told me.Interviewer: Why have you decided to tell people about it nowMr. Burton: Because I want people to know what happened to me.

Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the questions you willhear.One of the strangest and most fascinating things about Scotland is the Loch* Ness Monster. Some people believe in the mo nster’s existence. Many do not!However, very important bodies of people do believe there is some truth in the famous monster story: experts from Britain’s Roy al Air Force*, scientists from the Boston Academy of Applied Science* and computer specialists from NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, to mention but a few!Loch Ness is an enormous lake in Northern Scotland. It is about twenty-four miles long and one mile wide, and has an approximate depth of 1,000 feet, which makes it very difficult for anybody to find and examine the highly elusive* monster. In fact the first convincing reports of people seeing the monster date from only about six years before the beginning of the Second World War. Since then there have been other sightings, and photographs of the monster have been taken! Many of these photographs have later been recognised as fakes — silly jokes played on an unsuspecting public! However, other photographs have amazed the most searching scientific minds. In fact, it seems certain that something (and probably several of them) does exist in the deep waters of Loch Ness. The most amazing photographs show a flipper* — the flipper perhaps of a very large animal (twenty or thirty feet long, it is imagined).From these photos, the British specialist in animal life, Sir Peter Scott, who is also an artist, has constructed this picture of what he believes the monster might look like.But where did the monster come from Did it mysteriously climb out of a prehistoric world beneath the earth’s crust* Did i t originally swim into the lake from the sea Before the Ice Age, Loch Ness opened into the sea. Was the young monster’s egg frozen into the ice of the Ice Age And somehow did the monster come alive again when the ice went away We just do not know! Can we ever find the answers to all the questions surrounding the legend* of the Loch Ness Monster, do you think—Questions:1. How many people believe in the monster’s existence in the Loch Ness2. How many important bodies are mentioned who do believe there is some truth inthe famous monster story3. How large is Loch Ness in Northern Scotland4. When was the first convincing reports of people seeing the monster published5. What have been discovered later about many photographs6. Where can we be sure that something does exist7. How long is the flipper according to the passage8. What did Sir Peter Scott do；C. Listen to the passage again and discuss the following questions.KeyA.

Pilot André Borschberg now holds the record for the longest non-stop solo flight in history.During the trip Mr. Borschberg slept in the cockpit* of the plane for regular periods of20 minutes. During those periods, the airplane used autopilot*.The plane is made from carbon-fiber* mater ial. The plane’s wingspan is 72 meters. That is longer than the wingspan of a Boeing 747 plane. It has just one seat and weighs about as much as an automobile. The plane’s wings have 17,000 solar cells* that gather energy from the sun and charge the plane’s batteries.The airplane has stopped in many places, including Oman, India, Myanmar and China.The plane will make up to three stops in the United States. It will then cross the Atlantic Ocean, stopping in southern Europe and North Africa. In late July or early August, the plane will land in Adu Dhabi, where the trip began in early March.B.

The entertainment trade paper, Weekly Variety, even attempted to popularize "the iron man". The term never stuck.A popular story has been that an Academy librarian and eventual executive director, Margaret Herrick, thought the statuette resembled her uncle Oscar and said so, and that as a result the Academy staff began referring to it as Oscar.No hard evidence exists to support that tale, but in any case, by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934, Hollywood columnist Sidney Skolsky used the name in his column in reference to Katharine Hepburn's first Best Actress win. The Academy itself didn't use the nickname officially until 1939.Since its conception, the Oscar statuette has met exacting uniform standards - with a few notable exceptions. In the 1930s, juvenile players received miniature replicas* of the statuette; a ventriloquist* Edgar Bergen was presented with a wooden statuette with a moveable mouth; and Walt Disney was honored with one full-size and seven miniature statuettes on behalf of his animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Between 1942 and 1944, in support of the war effort, Oscars were made of plaster. After the War, winners turned in the temporary awards for golden Oscar statuettes.The traditional Oscar statuette, however, hasn't changed since the 1940s, when the base was made higher. In 1945, the base was changed from marble to metal and in 1949, Academy Award statuettes began to be numbered, starting with No. 501.Approximately 50 Oscars are made each year in Chicago by the manufacturer, R. S. Owens. If they don't meet strict quality control standards, the statuettes are immediately cut in half and melted down.Each award is individually packed into a Styrofoam* container slightlylarger than a shoebox.Eight of these are then packed into a larger cardboard box, and the large boxes are shipped to the Academy offices in Beverly Hills via air express, with no identifiable markings.On March 10, 2000, 55 Academy Awards mysteriously vanished en route from the Windy City* to the City of Angels. Nine days later, 52 of stolenstatuettes were discovered next to a Dumpster* in the Koreatown section of Los Angeles by Willie Fulgear, who was later invited by the Academy to attend the Oscar 2000 ceremonies as a special guest.For eight decades, the Oscars have survived war, weathered earthquakes, and even managed to escape unscathed* from common thieves. Since 1995, however, R. S. Owens has repaired more than 160 statuettes. "Maybe somebody used chemicals on them to polish them and the chemicals rubbed right through the lacquer* and into the gold," explains the company president. "Or maybe people stored them someplace where they corroded." Although he stresses that the statuette is made to endure, Siegel offers this sage advice to all Oscar winners: "If it gets dusty, simply wipe it with a soft dry cloth."Exercise A Pre-listening QuestionEvery January, the attention of the entertainment community and of film fans around the world turns to the upcoming Academy Awards, the highest honor in filmmaking. The annual presentation of the Oscars has become the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' most famous activity. The Oscar Statuette is a knight holding a crusader's sword, standing on a reel of film with five spokes.Exercise B Sentence DictationDirections: Listening to some sentences and write them down.

This guy is a dictator and so we have to seewhat he says." The president says the Iraqi leader has a choice to make: disarm peacefully or be disarmed by force: "If Saddam Hussein does not comply to the detail of the resolution, we will lead a coalition to disarm him. It is over. We are through with negotiations. There is no more time. The man must disarm. He said he would disarm. He now must disarm." Mr. Bush spoke with reporters while touring the Washington D.C. police department, a tour designed to highlight his plan to create a cabinet level Department of Homeland Security.

In an interview with Radio Monte Carlo's Arabic service Thursday, Mr. Blair said war could be avoided, if Iraq agreed to disarm."The situation is very clear. If Saddam Hussein agrees to disarm Iraq of all chemical, or biological or nuclear weapons programs and capability, then conflict would be avoided, and his duty is to cooperate fully with the inspectors to tell them exactly what material he has, to cooperate and comply with them in the eradication of that material."The prime minister said he wanted to speak directly to the Iraqi people to try to dispel* what he called myths that have arisen between Christians and Muslims. He said the dispute with Iraq is not about the West versus the East or about oil, but about weapons of mass destruction.Exercise ADirections: Listening to the news item and complete the summary.This news item is about British Prime Minister's stand on the Iraqi issue.Exercise BDirections: Listen to the news again and complete the following sentences.1.Prime Minister Blair warned that Saddam Hussein would suffer theconsequences unless he cooperated with the UN weapons inspectors.

The Security Council gave Iraq this last opportunity to disarm or face serious consequences, a euphemism* for possible war. The United States says it will make sure Iraq disarms, one way or another.But Mr. Blix* emphasizes that his inspectors will not determine the courseof events in the region. He says they will visit suspected sites, conduct interviews with Iraqi scientists, ferret* out information and report back to the Security Council for its members to decide.As for US and British intelligence reports, which the Bush administration says proves that Iraq has banned weapons, Mr. Blix says he is not going into Iraq with pre-conceived ideas of what is there.The next test for Iraq will be December 8th, the deadline for Iraq to present a full accounting of its weapons programs. If Iraq presents, in effect, a blank sheet, Mr. Blix says, he would expect the United States to put its evidence on the table, so it can be verified.Iraq has persistently maintained it does not have the banned weapons. The latest such assertion came in a letter to the UN this week, in which Baghdad accepted the latest Security Council resolution setting out the parameters* for what experts say will be the most intrusive inspections in Iraq, so far.After the preliminary technical work starting Monday, Mr. Blix says, he expects the first wave of inspections to start November 27th.

It taught the people who lived along its banks the noble art of "teamwork". They depended upon each other to build their irrigation trenches and keep their dikes in repair. In this way they learned how to get along with their neighbors and their mutual-benefit-association quite easily developed into an organized state.Then one man grew more powerful than most of his neighbors and he became the leader of the community and their commander-in-chief when the envious neighbors of western Asia invaded the prosperous valley. In due course of time he became their King and ruled all the land from the Mediterranean to the mountains of the west.But these political adventures of the old pharaohs* (the word meant "theMan who lived in the Big House") rarely interested the patient and toiling peasant of the grain fields. Provided he was not obliged to pay more taxes to his King than he thought lust, he accepted the rule of pharaoh as accepted the rule of Mighty Osiris *.It was different however when a foreign invader came and robbed him of his possessions.After twenty centuries of independent life, a savage Arab tribe of shepherds, called the Hyksos*, attacked Egypt and for five hundred years they were the masters of the valley of the Nile. They were highly unpopular and great hate was also felt for the Hebrews who came to the land of Goshen* to find a shelter after their long wandering through the desert and who helped the foreign usurper* by acting as his tax-gatherers and his civil servants.But shortly after the year 1700 B.C., the people of Thebes* began a revolution and after a long struggle the Hyksos were driven out of the country and Egypt was free once more.A thousand years later, when Assyria* conquered all of western Asia, Egypt became part of the empire of Sardanapalus*. In the seventh century B.C., it became once more an independent stateExercise A Pre-listening Question,It is the Great Pyramid of Giza probably. The great pyramid is believed to havebeen built over a 20-year period. The site was first prepared, and blocks of stone were transported and placed. An outer casing (which disappeared over the years) was then used to smooth the surface. Although it is not known how the blocks were put in place, several theories have been proposed. One theory involves the construction of a straight or spiral ramp that was raised as the construction proceeded. This ramp, coated with mud and water, eased the displacement of the blocks which were pushed (or pulled) into place. A second theory suggests that the blocks were placed using long levers with a short angled foot.1.Exercise B Sentence DictationExercise B Sentence DictationDirections: Listen to some sentences and write them down.

One of the first men to produce designs for aircraft was Leonardo da Vinci, an Italian artist who lived in the fifteenth century. However, it was not until the eighteenthcentury that people began to fly, or perhaps it would be better to say float, across the countryside in balloons. The first hot-air balloon was made in April 1783 by the Montgolfier brothers in France.In the following years many flights were made by balloon. Some of the flights were for pleasure and others were for delivering mail and for military purposes, such as observation and even bombing. However, in the late nineteenth century, airships superseded balloons as a form of transport.Airships came after balloons. The first powered and manned flight was made by a Frenchman, Giffard, in September 1852. His airship, powered by steam, traveled twenty-seven kilometers from Paris to Trappes at a speed of eight kilometers per hour. However the days of the airship were numbered as the aero plane became increasingly safe and popular.ExerciseDirections: Listen to the passage and write down the gist and the key words that help you decide.1.This passage is about the early history of flying.2.The key words are jlving. designs. an Italian artist. fifteenth century:eighteenth century. flv. float. balloons: hot-air balloon.

That’s t he 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 goin g to go down as the warmest y ear 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.

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 tr eat the incident as a national calamity.

The worst of the heavy rains and thunderstorms that have been sweeping parts of Europe during the past weekappears to be over. Exceptionally heavy rainfall brought flooding to many parts of Germany, Switzerland, Northern Italy and France and chaos to rail and road transport. 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 low because 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.

新视野英语第三册听力答案完整版unite6

新视野英语第三册听力答案完整版unite6Unit 6 Here are tips for finding a job.Lead in > Task 1 1I think many people prefer to find a job that they really like. After all, most people want to enjoy themselves rather than have plenty of money without a sense of achievement and happiness. On the other hand, some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their heart out of financial considerations. If one is in serious financial difficulty, one can hardly afford the luxury of a dream job 2I think it is. Although many employers lay emphasis on candidates' educational background and work experience, some believe that candidates' character is equally important for a successful career. For example, in contemporary society, many projects require the coordination of a group of people rather than a single person's efforts. Therefore, a good team player is often welcome.3To start with, the interviewers may ask you about your education to seeif you have the basic knowledge required for the job you are applying for. Perhaps most of them will ask you about your work experience in this field to see if you have the necessary skills for the job you have in mind. They may also ask about your character, weaknesses and strengths to find out what kind of person you are. They may even ask you something that is not directly related to the job. Your answers tend to show your intelligence level and communication skills Basic listening practice CDACB Listening in > Task 1 1-7ABAABAA Listening in > Task 2 1-5BCCAD Listening in > Task 3 1-5CAACB Let's talk > Task 1 Correct answer (1) 900 (2) customer calls (3) 70 (4) human resources (5) supported (6) customer-facing (7) place (8) two (9) right people (10)realisticLet's talk > Task 2(3) Candidates have a telephone interview that would last somewhere in the region of 15 minutes.(2) Candidates come to have a tour of the centre. They get to see the role, see how it feels, and feel the culture of the company.(1) Candidates complete an application form. (4) Candidates havea two-hour assessment consisting of a role-play which looks at their customer service ability and a competency interview. Let's talk > Task 31T-Mobile is a subsidiary of Deutsche Telecom; it is Deutsche Telecom's global mobile phone operation. There are 900 people working at the company's call centre; 760 of them are employed in handling customer calls and they are managed by 70 team managers and 10 operations managers. Generally speaking, I prefer to work for a large company because it often has a good reputation, is less likely to go bankrupt, ensures you a fairly stable job, and sometimes gives you a good salary. But I may not say "no" to a small company if I can assume more responsibilities, have more opportunities for career development and promotion, or receive a higher salary. 2In a role-play the company recruiters can look at the candidates' abilities and potential. To prepare for such a role-play, basically I can do two things. To begin with, I will make a list of the tasks required by the job as well as a list of the things I can say and do in order to demonstrate my customer service ability. Moreover, I can ask friends and family members to take part in a role-play with me so that I can become familiar with the situation and find out my problems. Ican also video tape the role-play to further identify problems and make improvement.Further listening and speaking > Further listening > Task 1 Correct answer (1) coast (2) impressed (3) shipping company (4) cargo (5) communication skills (6) essential (7) asset (8) team spirit (9) her age (10) her parents Further listening and speaking > Further listening > Task 2 1-5BAABATask 3 1-5CCBAD Further listening and speaking > Viewing and speaking > Task 1(1) (2) (3) (4) (5)Correct answer selection pressure marketing interview business(6) nervous (7) laugh (8) redundant (9) difficult (10) sacking Further listening and speaking > Viewing and speaking > Task 2 1The interviewer must make the interviewee feel at ease because otherwise he or she might end up in hiring someone who is completely wrong for the business. I might do the following to make myself less nervous in an interview: —I will close my eyes for a while and take a deep breath. Also, I'll try to smile a bit to make myself feel better. —Before the interview, I should get fully prepared. I will familiarize myself with the usual questions and appropriate answers. Also, I will collect a lot of information about the company I want to join and its requirements for the advertised position. When I am equipped with sufficient information, I will feel more confident and less nervous. —I won't treat the interview too seriously. Even if I fail, it does not mean the end of the world, and I still have further opportunities elsewhere. —I might have simulated interviews with my fellow students or family members. When I become more familiar with the interview procedure, I will be less afraid.2They should be very compassionate because it is someone's livelihood that they are dealing with. And if possible, they could write a new CV for the laid-off people to help them find a new job. I may try to encourage the laid-off workers by saying, "You are so intelligent; you will find a better job sooner or later. If possible, I will recommend the laid-offs to other companies 3T o begin with, I will calm down and think about my weaknesses and ways to overcome them. I can think about my strengths and how I can make use of them in my future job-seeking. I will update my résumé and try to find a new job. I will call my friends and relatives to see if any of them can help me land a job. If I can't find a suitable job now, I will consider a training course that can update my skills so that I will become more competitive in the job market.Test CBCDC Correct answer (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) ice Examples parking response provide impression ages If this is the place where you would be working, they would automatically be worried that you will be latefor work everyday (9) They might be historical questions regarding your previous employment or education Make a statement, then support it by giving an example of a situation and how you handled it(10)CBACD DABCBCAADC。

In September, satellite pictures showed more than 20000 fires burning in the Amazon. Experts say most of these fires were set by farmers. The farmers were attempting to clear land to grow crops. The World Wildlife Fund says another serious problem is that too many trees in the Amazon rain forest are being cut down. The World Wildlife Fund says the fires show the need for urgent international action to protect the world's rain forests. The group warns that without such action some forests could be lost forever.2. Environmental issues swell to the full in Berlin this week, for the UN spongsored conference on global warming and climate change is the first such meeting since the Rio summit three years ago.

We went to America, both North and South and then we went over to Africa and South-East Asia.I: And what did you find in each of these continents?B: Starting with Africa, our film shows the impact of the population on the environment. Generally speaking, this has caused the Sahara Desert to expand. It's a bit of a vicious circle we find. People cut down trees for firewood and their domestic animals eat all the available plants — and so consequently they have to move south as the Sahara Desert expands further south.I mean, soon the whole of Mali will become a desert. And in East Africa: here the grasslands are supporting too many animals and the result is, of course, there's no grass — nothing for the animals to eat.。

全新版大学英语听说教程第二版听说教程第三册听力原文及答案

全新版大学英语第二版听说教程第三册听力原文及答案Unit 1Text 1Dating with My Mother (Part One)After 22 years of marriage, I have discovered the secret to keep love alive in my relationship with my wife, Peggy. I started dating with another woman.It was Peggy's idea. One day she said to me, 'Life is too short, you need to spend time with the people you love. You probably won't believe me, but I know you love her and I think that if the two of you spend more time together, it will make us closer.' The 'other' woman my wife was encouraging me to date is my mother, a 72-year-old widow who has lived alone since my father died 20 years ago. Right after his death, I moved 2,500 miles away to California and started my own life and career. When I moved back near my hometown six years ago, I promised myself that I would spend more time with mom. But with the demands of my job and three kids, I never got around to seeing her much beyond family get-togethers and holidays.Mom was surprised and suspicious when I called and suggested the two of us go out to dinner and a movie.'What's wrong?' she asked.'I thought it would be nice to spend some time with you,' I said. 'Just the two of us.''I would like that a lot,' she said.When I pulled into her driveway, she was waiting by the door with her coat on. Her hair was curled, and she was smiling. 'I told my lady friends I was going out with my son, and they were all impressed. They can't wait to hear about our evening,' Mother said.Exercise 1: 1. c 2. a 3.bQuestions:1. What would make the speaker closer to his wife, Peggy?2. What do you know about the speaker's mother?3. Which of the following adjectives best describes Peggy?Exercise 2:1. She suggested that her husband spend more time with his mother. She said to her husband, "Life is too short, but you need to spend time with the people you love. You probably won't believe me, but I know you love her and I think that if the two of you spend more time together , it will make us closer."2. 1) ...she was waiting by the door with her coat on and she had her hair curled.2) She had told her lady friends about this.Text 2Dating with My Mother (Part Two)We didn't go anywhere fancy, just a neighborhood place where we could talk. Since her eyes now see only large shapes and shadows, I had to read the menu for both of us.'I used to be the reader when you were little,' she said.'Then it is time for you to relax and let me return the favor,' I said.We had a nice talk over dinner, just catching up on each other's lives. We talked for so long that we missed the movie.'I'll go out with you again,' my mother said as I dropped her off, 'but only if you let me buy dinner next time.'I agreed.'How was your date?' my wife asked when I got home that evening.'Nice...nicer than I thought it would be,' I said.Mom and I get out for dinner a couple of times a month. Sometimes we take in a movie, but mostly we talk. I tell her about my trails at work and brag about the kids and Peggy. Mom fills me in on family gossip and tells me about her past. Now I know what it was like for her to work in a factory during the Second World War. I know how she met my father there, and know how they went through the difficult times. I can't get enough of these stories. They are important to me, a part of my history. We also talk about the future. Because of health problems, my mother worries about the days ahead.Spending time with my mom has taught me the importance of slowing down. Peggy was right. Dating another woman has helped my marriage.Exercise 1: 1. c 2. d 3. dQuestions:1. What does the story mainly tell us?2. Which of the following is true?3. What can you learn from the story?Ex. 2 1. took// out to dinner// neighborhood2. nicer than he expected.3. A couple of times.4. the importance of slowing down//his marriageUnit 2Text1What a Coincidence! (Part One)Andrew had always wanted to be a doctor. But the tuition for a medical school in 1984 was 15,000 dollars a year, which was more than his family could afford. To help him realize his dream, his father, Mr. Stewart, a real estate agent, began searching the house-for-sale ads in newspapers in order to find extra business. One advertisement that he noted down was for the sale of a house in a nearby town. Mr. Stewart called the owner, trying to persuade him to let him be his agent. Somehow he succeeded and the owner promised that he would come to him if he failed to get a good deal with his present agent. Then they made an appointment to meet and discuss the thing.As good things are never easy to acquire, the time for the appointment had to be changed almost ten times. On the day when they were supposed to meet at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Stewart received another call from the owner. His heart sank as he feared there would be another change of time. And so it was. The owner told him that he couldn't make it at three but if he would come right then, they could talk it over. Mr. Stewart was overjoyed. Leaving everything aside, he immediately set out todrive to the house.As he approached the area, he had a strange feeling of having been there before. The streets, the trees, the neighborhood, all looked familiar to him. And when he finally reached the house, something clicked in his mind. It used to be the house of his father-in-law! The old man had died fifteen years ago but when he was alive, he had often visited him with his wife and children. He remembered that, like his son Andrew, his father-in-law had also wanted to study medicine and, failing to do so, had always hoped that one of his two daughters or his grandchildren could someday become a doctor.Exercise 1:1. b 2. a 3. d 4. cQuestions:1. Who are the two main characters in the story you have just heard?2. How did Mr. Stewart get to know the owner of the house?3. What problem did Mr. Stewart have?4. What is the coincidence in the story you have just heard?Exercise 2:1984 / son / medical school / tuition / afford it / realize / newspaper ads / extra business / advertisement / succeeded / agent / changed / phone call / put aside / doing / immediately / familiar / father-in-law's / visited / his father-in-law alive / coincidence Text2What a Coincidence! (Part Two)When he entered the house, Mr. Stewart was even more amazed to find that the house was decorated exactly as he had remembered it. He told the owner about this and the latter became intrigued too. However, they were in for even greater surprises. It so happened that in the middle of their discussion, a postman came to deliver a letter. And the letter was addressed to Mr. Stewart's father-in-law! Were it not for Mr. Stewart's presence there and then, the letter would be returned as no person of that name lived in the house any longer. As the postman demanded a signature on the receipt slip, Mr. Stewart signed for his long-deceased father-in-law. Mystified, the owner urged Mr. Stewart to open the letter and see what it contained. The letter was from a bank. When he opened it, two words immediately met his eye -- 'For education'. It was a bank statement of an amount his father-in-law had put in years ago for his grandchildren's education needs. With the interest it had earned over the years, the standing value of the amount came to a little over $15,000, just enough money to cover the tuition of Andrew's first year at a medical college!Another thing that is worth mentioning is about the postman. The original postman, who had worked in this neighborhood, called in sick that day. So the postman, who was new to the area, came to deliver mail in his place. Had it been the old postman, the letter would undoubtedly be returned to the sender as he knew full well that no person bearing that name lived in that house any longer.The miracle was a blessing for Andrew. With the money given to him by his grandfather he was able to study medicine. Now he is a doctor in Illinois.Exercise1：1.The house was decorated exactly the same as Mr. Stewart remembered it2.Mr. Stewart happened to be in the house when a postman came to deliver a letterto his father-in-law who had died 15 years ago.3.The old postman had called in sick that day, and the postman who came in hisplace was not familiar with the neighborhood. Other wise the letter would have been returned to its sender.Exercise 2:1. He was intrigued.2. A bank statement.3. his father-in-law had put an amount of money in the bank for his grandchildren's education.4. A little over $15,000.5. He could use the money to cover the tuition of his first year at a medical college.6. He is a doctor in Illinois.Unit 3Text 1Krimali (Part One)On the morning of the devastating earthquake that struck India in 2001, Krimali, a girl of 17, had just left home to go to an interview for a position of a sales clerk. She was pleased with her green and yellow flowered dress, but felt something wasn't quite right about her hair. She returned home, removing her shoes and leaving them at the door.Moments later, the earthquake struck. Ceilings and walls in the building shook in the deafening noise. Then everything began crashing down.Krimali and her immediate family escaped serious injury but were unable to make their way out. The ceiling of an entire room towered above the only possible escape route. Completely detached on three sides, the huge slab clung to an outside wall on its fourth side. To an observer, it could drop at any moment.People were screaming and didn't know what to do. Krimali decided to act. Carefully she climbed barefoot up and down the debris until she reached a point just beneath the swaying ceiling. About four meters below were uneven pieces of concrete, broken glass and smashed furniture, all mixed with sharp spikes of iron. She knew if she could manage to get down to the ground level, she could make her way to safety. She paused to figure out the best way down. As there wasn't any good place to jump, she just jumped. Luckily, she landed in a crouch, her feet missing any sharp edges. Emboldened by her good fortune, Krimali knew it was up to her to persuade others to follow.Exercise 1: Ex 1 1-2 c c Ex 2 1-8 T F F F F T T FText 2Krimali ( Part Two)Krimali planned to rescue her family first, but just then she heard a woman from two storeys above screaming for someone to save her two-month-old baby."Throw the baby to me," Krimali shouted. "I can catch her!"The woman refused. Krimali told the woman to wrap the baby in bed sheets and then toss her down. Crying uncontrollably, the mother wrapped the little girl but stillwould not part with her baby. As the mother tried to decide what to do, Krimali intently watched the concrete ceiling hanging above her. Finally the mother tossed the baby. Krimali made a clean catch. A bright smile lit up the woman's face. "I'll be back!" Krimali called out, hugging the child to her as she hurriedly picked her way out to where survivors had gathered.She gave up the baby, then asked if any of the men there would come back with her to help others trapped in the building. No one came forward, for they were all afraid of that swaying ceiling. But for Krimali, a small girl of 154 centimeters in height and weighing about 50 kilos, her fears had been lifted by what she had accomplished.On her way back into the ruins, she saw part of a large door. It was extremely heavy but she managed to drag it to the spot just below the hanging ceiling. By placing it on the ruins, she created something like a sliding board. With Krimali coaching her, the baby's mother partly jumped and partly rolled down the board to the ground level. Krimali led her through the debris to her baby.In the hours that followed Krimali made countless rescue missions into the building, each time in the shadow of the huge ceiling. Thanks to her courage, about two dozen men, women and children were saved.Exercise 1:Questions :1-2 d bExercise 2:1. Because she was afraid Krimali might not be able to catch her.2. Because she thought the bed sheets could somehow protect the baby from being hurt if she failed to catch her.3. Because they were afraid of the swaying ceiling.4. To make it easier and safer for people to get down.5. About two dozen were saved.Unit 4Text 1A Marriage Agreement (Part One)(Tom and Linda have signed a marriage agreement. Both agree not to break the rules outlined in the agreement. John, a reporter, is talking to them about the agreement.) John: Tom, Linda, first I'd like to ask you why you decided to write this unusual agreement.Tom: We found that many problems are caused when a person has different expectations from his or her spouse. We wanted to talk about everything openly and honestly before we started living together.Linda: Also we both know how important it is to respect each other's pet peeves. Like, I can get very annoyed if others leave stuff -- clothing, papers, everything! -- lying around on the floor. It really bugged me, so we put that in the agreement.John: This is mentioned in Article 1: Cleaning Up, isn't it? It says, "Nothing will be left on the floor overnight. Everything must be cleaned up and put away before going to bed."Tom: Then I'll know clearly what Linda's expectations are.John: I see. What about Article 2: Sleeping? It says, "We will go to bed at 11 p.m. and get up at 6:30 a.m. except on weekends." I'm sure some people hearing this will think that this agreement isn't very romantic.Tom: Well, we disagree. We think it's very romantic. This agreement shows that we sat down and talked, and really tried to understand the other person. A lot of problems occur in a marriage when people don't talk about what they want.Linda: That's right. When we disagreed about something, we worked out a solution that was good for both of us. I would much rather have Tom really listen to me and understand my needs than give me a bunch of flowers or a box of candy.Exercise 1: 1. b 2. c 3.aQuestions:1. Which statement best summarizes the marriage agreement between Tom and Linda?2. According to Tom, what will give rise to problems in a marriage?3. What can be inferred about Linda from the conversation?Exercise 2:1. Because she wanted to understand each other's expectations so that potential problems could be avoided and they could live happily together.2. Cleaning up. Everything must be cleaned up and put away before going to bed.3. Sleeping. Time for bed: 11pm; time to get up: 6:30am except on weekends.Text 2A Marriage Agreement (Part Two)John: Linda, do you spend a lot of time checking to see if the other person is following the rules? Arguing?Linda: No, not at all.Tom: A lot of couples argue because they don't understand each other's expectations. I think we spend less time arguing than most couples because we both know what the other person expects.John: What happens if one of you breaks a rule?Tom: Well, that's in Article 13 of our agreement.John: Is it? Oh yes, Article 13: Breaking Rules. "If you break a rule, you must apologize and do something nice for the other person to make it up."Linda: Yeah, like last time Tom broke the rule of driving.John: What's the rule?Linda: The rule is we must ask for directions if we are driving and get lost for more than five minutes.John: What happened?Tom: We were driving to a friend's wedding, and we got lost. Linda wanted to stop at a gas station to ask for directions, but I thought I could figure it out.Linda: Then we drove forty miles in the wrong direction and ended up being late for the wedding.Tom: So I took her out to dinner. I knew what I should do to apologize.John: That's very important, I think, knowing how to apologize. By the way, do youplan to update your agreement at all? What if things change in your life and a rule doesn't work anymore?Linda: We've thought about that too. Article 14 states that we must review this agreement once a year and make necessary changes.John: Well, it was really nice talking to you both. Thank you very much for your time. Tom & Linda: Thank you.Ex. 1 1-3 c c aEx. 21.get lost// five minutes // driving // stop // directions2.breaking rules // break a rule // apologize and do something nice for the otherperson to make it up3.reviewing the contents of the agreement // review this agreement once a year //make necessary changesPart BText 1AshleyAshley was reading a magazine when she came across an article about antibiotics and other drugs discovered in European rivers and tap water. If such drugs were present there, she reasoned, they might also be found near her home in West Virginia.Ashley feared that antibiotics in the waters could lead to resistant bacteria, or supergerms, which can kill untold numbers of people.The girl, then 16, began testing her area's river -- the Ohio. With a simple device she herself had designed, she collected 350 water samples from the Ohio and its tributaries over ten weeks. Reading scientific journals, she taught herself to analyze the samples. It was the most scientifically sound project for someone her age.Her experiment, one of the first of its kind in the United States, showed that low levels of three antibiotics are indeed present in local waters. Ashley's study won the International Stockholm Junior Water Prize, a virtual Nobel Prize for teenagers. She received a $5,000 scholarship and an audience with Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria.Her interest in science was sparked by walks in the woods with her mother. But it was the day-to-day stuff -- how water comes to the tap, how rain sticks to glass, that most fascinated her. "Science is not a dead thing," she says. "It's happening all around us."By the sixth grade, she was winning at science fairs. She has won $70,000 in prize money, which she has put aside for college. She plans to attend Harvard University. "I want to make my own discoveries, and not just read about what others have done," she said. Her teachers predict that she will one day win a Nobel Prize. Exercise 1: 1. D 2.

By now just about everybody has heard the "Not for Sale" commercial on television and the radio against tobacco companies. What many people don't know is that teenagers from West New York and across New Jersey worked on various aspects of the campaign, and even appeared in some of the advertisements. The campaign organizer thought it would be better than using actors if actual REBEL members were in the commercials.REBEL, which stands for Reaching Everybody by Exposing Lies, is a statewide youth initiative against tobacco companies. The movement, which began in November last year, carries the message that teens no longer want to be targeted by tobacco companies in their advertisements. Knowing that peer pressure on teens to smoke or do drugs is one of the biggest problems that teens face, the group is working hard to ensure that their message reaches all teenagers at New Jersey schools.When the group was first formed, there were only five members, all eighth grade students. But by this summer the group had grown to close to 90 members. At a recent recruiting party, a pizza and pool party, at the West New York swimming pool, more than 50 new members were attracted to the group."We don't think that too many people would be interested," said Jackie, one of its founding members. "But everyone knows our message. They know who we are now."Exercise 1:1. Reaching Everybody by Exposing Lies2. They launched an advertising campaign to call on youth to fight against tobacco companies by starting the "Not fro Sale" commercial on television and radio.3. They intend to spread the message that teenagers no longer want to be targeted by tobacco companies in their advertisements.Exercise 2: 1. c 2.a 3.c 4.c 5.bQuestions:1. When did REBEL launch their advertising campaign?2. How many members did REBEL have by the summer of 2001?3. Who are the members of REBEL?4. What did REBEL do for their campaign against tobacco companies?5. What did REBEL do recently?Unit 6Text 1Being a Police Officer Is a Stressful JobInterviewer: Welcome to our program, Sam.Sam: Thank you.Interviewer: Sam, how long have you been a police officer?Sam: I've been a police officer for thirty years.Interviewer: Thirty years. And you've had different types of assignments on the police force, I guess.Sam: Yeah, I've done everything from patrol to undercover work to detective work, and now I'm supervising investigations.Interviewer: Sam, I think most people would say that being a police officer is a very stressful job. Would you agree?Sam: Yes, it's definitely a stressful job. But it depends on your assignment. Interviewer: So, what's probably the most stressful assignment you can have? Sam: I'd say patrol is the most stressful assignment.Interviewer: That's interesting! In what way?Sam: Well, I guess the biggest part of the stress is the fear factor -- the fear of the unknown.Interviewer: What do you mean, Sam?Sam: Well, in patrol work, you don't know from moment to moment who you are talking to or what their reaction is going to be to justify your presence. Let's say, for example, a patrol officer stops someone for a traffic violation. It seems as though that would be a very low-stress situation.Interviewer: Yes, it is a very low-stress situation.Sam: But the truth is, there are more police officers injured during a routine stop. Interviewer: Really?Sam: Really! That's why all police officers are taught from the very beginning to be aware of their surroundings. People back over policemen, people shoot policemen, people jump out at policemen -- different kinds of things. So that's probably the most stressful time.Interviewer: I see. Let's take a break and then we'll move on to our next topic. Sam: All right.Exercise 1: 1. d 2. c 3.aQuestions:1. What's the relationship between the two speakers?2. What does Sam mainly talk about?3. What do you know about Sam?Exercise 2:Sam has been a police officer for 30 years. He has done everything from patrol to undercover work. He has also done detective work and now he is supervising investigations.Sam thinks being a police officer is a very stressful job, but it depends on the assignment one has. In his opinion the biggest pert of the stress is the fear of the unknown and patrol is the most stressful assignment.Text 2Stress ReducersInterviewer: Sam, you've talked about the police officers' stressful time. Now let's move on to the next topic. So far as I know, there's a connection between stress and illness. Do you think that there's a higher percentage of illness among police officers than in the general population? I mean, do they get more colds or anything? Is this really true?Sam: Yes, it is, and the stress level not only manifests itself in daily health --whether or not you've feeling well on any given day. It also manifests itself in things like ulcers, heart disease -- police officers tend to have a higher rate of heart disease and ulcers than people in other professions.Interviewer: Really? That's documented?Sam: Yes, it's documented. And also the divorce rate among police officers is much higher.Interviewer: Is there something that the police department does to help you deal with this stress?Sam: Yes, there are several programs that most police departments have in place. One is an exercise program where some part of your day is spent on some type of physical exercise. They've found that's a great stress reducer. Besides, there's also a psychological program with counseling for officers to help them reduce their stress. And there are several discussion groups as well. They've found that sometimes just sitting around and talking about the stress with other officers helps to reduce it. So, those things are available.Interviewer: And what do you do, personally, to help you deal with the stress of your job, Sam?Sam: Well, during the baseball season, I'm the biggest baseball fanatic, and I will either be reading about baseball, or listening to baseball, or watching baseball. Another thing I try to do is to get some sort of exercise every day. And then I work hard at keeping up my personal relationships, especially my relationship with my wife. Fortunately I get along very well with my wife. When I come back home, I can talk about my day with her, and then just forget about it.Exercise 1: 1. T 2. F 3. T 4. F 5. TStatements:1. The dialogue is mainly about how police officers can deal with stress.2. According to Sam, most police officers enjoy good health.3. According to Sam, the divorce rate among police officers is higher than among people in other jobs.4. Counseling is the most effective program to help police officers relieve stress.5. Sam knows how to reduce his stress.Exercise 2:1. ... One is an exercise program, another is a psychological program with counseling for officers. And there are several discussion groups as well for officers to sit down and talk about their stress with other officers.2. 2)...He tries to get some sort of exercise every day.3)...his personal relationships, especially his relationships with his wife.Unit 7 The Business WorldKenneth: Hello, my name is Kenneth Johnson.
