From the heart of Africa to the Mediterranean Sea runs the world's longest river. Since the Egyptians first settled along its banks men have dreamt of discovering the place where the Nile is born. But for centuries the river kept its secrets close. The obsession grew and by the mid-19th century some were prepared to risk their lives to be the first to discover the source of the Nile. Over a period of 30 years the Nile finally yielded. It demanded a terrible price. Many died or suffered horribly. One man had the resolve to finally piece together the puzzle of the Nile. He was Henry Morton Stanley. Doctor Livingstone, I presume. Yes. Meeting Livingstone changed my life. He was a remarkable man. He inspired in me the determination to finish the work that he had begun.
世界第一长河自非洲的心脏地带流入地中海。自埃及人定居大河两岸之始，人类就一直梦想着揭开大河的源流之谜。但几百年来，大河一直神秘，让人更加着迷。到十九世纪中叶，有些探险家甚至做好了以生命为代价为溯源冒险的准备，争相成为发现尼罗河源头的第一人。历经三十年征伐，尼罗河终于屈服了，但世人也为此付出了惨痛的代价，前仆后继、死伤无数，直到坚决的亨利·默顿·斯坦利最后将一切拼凑起来，解开尼罗河之谜。您是利文斯通医师吧。是的。利文斯通改变了我的一生。他的卓越不凡让我下定决心去完成他未竟的事业。

2020年7月bbc英语听力材料 A judge in the United States has ordered the release of Albert Woodfox, the last of the so-called “Angola Three” still in prison. Woodfox has been in solitary confinement for 43 years after the killing of a guard at the Louisiana State Penitentiary in 1972. Richard Hulls reports. “Campaigners for the ‘Angola Three’ have always maintained there was no physical evidence to link them to the crime and all convictions have been overturned on numerous occasions. In his ruling, the judge said Albert Woodfox's poor health and the length of the time spent in solitary confinement had contributed to the decision to free him. No man in the US has ever spent as much time in solitary confinement as he has. With the exception of a six-month period in a secure dormitory in 2008, Albert Woodfox has spent all of the past 43 years incarcerated on his own.” World news from the BBC. 【key point】 confinement n. 限制；监禁；分娩 exception n. 例外；异议 solitary n. 独居者；隐士 adj. 孤独的；独居的

英语听力材料下载练习文本 Musical Mammals Think humans are the only creatures capable of grooving to a beat? Think again. Turns out a growing number of animals are just as musically inclined. Beyond Parrots Now, you may already know that parrots and other birds that mimic human speech are also good at keeping time to a musical beat. Scientists think it’s a side effect of repeating human speech sounds. But researchers have found that both sea lions and bonobos are also capable of bopping to a beat. Researchers beat a drum at around 280 beats per minute and found that bonobos were able to pick up the beat and play it on a specially designed drum. Now, given that bonobos are closely related to humans, their rhythmic ability might not sound very surprising. In the wild, bonobos are known to beat on hollow trees. But sea lions are a different story they’re not known to follow or pick up a beat. So it was surprising when researchers working with a sea lion they named Ronan were able to train her to bob her head in time to different tempos. More Widespread Beyond the fact that teaching a sea lion to groove to a beat is pretty cool, it also suggests that the ability may be

It is easier for people to understand, no matter where in the world they live. Voice 1 A young child sits by the roadside. Her small hands rest in the dry dirt. She lifts the grains and watches them fall through her fingers. In her mind she can hear her mother’s voice calling her. In her mind she can see her father working in the fields. But she knows that these images are only in her mind now. The young girl’s mother and father are both dead. She is an orphan. For a minute, her brown eyes fill with tears. But her grandmother’s voice stops her thoughts. ‘Coming Grandma’, she says in her native language of Swahili. Voice 2 Each year the number of orphans caused by HIV/AIDS rises. Worldwide, over twenty million people have died from diseases connected to AIDS. HIV is the virus that causes the AIDS disease. AIDS destroys the body’s natural defence system. This means it cannot fight infections or diseases. There is no cure for AIDS. Voice 1 Adults suffer the most deaths from this disease. Many are mothers and fathers of young children. They are the workers of the land. They are the providers of food. They are the carers in the home. They are the carers and supporters of their parents. They are the ‘working generation.’When they die, they leave the weaker members of the family behind - the children and the grandmothers. Voice 2 Priscilla is seven years old. She is an AIDS orphan. She lives with her grandmother and two brothers in Maua, Kenya. In the beginning things were very difficult for her family. They had little food. Their grandmother did not work. There was not any money for the children to go to school. But then, things changed. Priscilla and her brothers became part of a programme at the Maua Methodist Hospital. Their AIDS Orphan programme began in 2001. The programme aims to help children get back into school. They provide clothing
听bbc怎么练英语听力 听bbc怎么练英语听力 (一)尽量先以自己熟悉的语言了解新闻内容 在进行当天的英文新闻学习前，先从中文的媒体了解当天主要的国际或国内新闻内容，在听英文新闻时，就容易多了。当然，这是 在学习期间，过了入门的阶段，就不需要了。 (二)掌握各类新闻 英语的有限单字世界之广，事件之多，大部分的人一定认为，要掌握新闻英语的相关单字，恐怕好几千个，要背完一整本的新闻字库，才有办法听懂。这个想法似乎很合逻辑，但是其实有个极大的 错误，从政治新闻到娱乐新闻，当然很可能有几千个单字，但是相 关的单字每几个月，甚至每几年才出现一次，就是所谓的rarelyusedvocabulary(罕见单字)，例如：「multilateralcurrencyrealignment」(跨国货币调整)或「plannedobsolescence」(计画的陈废)，如果连这些也要背，那可 真是不得了。幸好，每天新闻会遇到的单字，八成五以上，都是我 们称为的commonlyusedvocabulary(常用单字)。换言之，只要你能 掌握这五、六百个重复出现的单字，就可以听懂八成五以上的新闻。其它一些较专门的财经或科学等新闻字汇，等主要的`单字会了之后，再慢慢的增加难度。 (三)遇到听不懂的地方不要去想它，继续听下去听 英语新闻或英语节目时，遇到一个不会的字或没听清楚的段落，就开始想它的意思，往往造成接下来的内容全都没听清楚。所谓 「一心不能二用」，绝不可以在听的同时，边想前一句的意思，要 养成一个习惯，那就是遇到不太懂的地方不要停下来思考，专心听 下去。某个段落没听懂，可能的原因有几个，也许有个没学过的单字，或有较特殊的句型，也许主播播报的速度一时加快，甚至自己

Iain Purdon为你播报BBC新闻。 The US Anti-Doping Agency has accused the cyclist Lance Armstrong of cheating his way to the top through the most sophisticated and professional doping programme ever seen in sport. Its new report includes testimony from eleven named team-mates of Armstrong, who won the Tou r de France cycle race seven times. His lawyer has described the report as a one-sided hatchet job. More from our sports news reporter Alex Capstick. 美国反兴奋剂机构指责自行车选手兰斯·阿姆斯特朗在比赛中作弊，这是体育界目前出现的最高端最专业的兴奋剂丑闻。阿姆斯特朗曾七次赢得环法自行车赛，最近报告包括根据他的11名公开姓名队友的证词。他的律师说这是单方面的诽谤，体育记者亚历克斯·卡普斯蒂克报道。 In a statement it said there was conclusive and undeniable proof of a doping conspiracy at the team with whom he had most of his success. Twenty-six people, including 15 riders with the knowledge of the drug taking regime at the US Postal Service team, have testified against him; among them, some of his closest confidants. It said the material which also contains documentary evidence illustrated how the team was design to groom and pressure athletes to use dangerous performance-enhancing substances. Lance Armstrong refused to contest the charges against him, but has consistently denied any wrongdoing. 声明称这是一份阿姆斯特朗团队全面又无可否认的兴奋剂阴谋证据，他的大部分成功都是在这个队里取得的。包括了解兴奋剂内幕的美国邮政自行车队15名骑手在内的26人都指证他，其中一些人还是他的密友。报告称材料中还有书面证明，表明该队培训并迫使运动员使用危险的可提高成绩的药物。兰斯·阿姆斯特朗拒绝对指控进行上诉，但却一直否认犯罪。 Turkish fighter jets have forced a Syrian passenger plane to land.
