AOutside viewVoice-overEvery year, millions of young people take time out to help others as volunteers. Many of them do this during a gap year between finishing school and starting in higher education. Volunteers learn to solve problems, work together as a team and develop their personalities. Communities in need get help they couldn’t afford to pay for. In Britain, one of the main agencies for voluntary work is Raleigh International. It arranges for thousands of people, aged between 17 and 25, to help out in their own country or abroad. This group of 100 people has just arrived at the base camp in Costa Rica. In the next ten weeks, they are taking part in threedifferent projects. One of the projects is environmental, one community-based and one an adventure project. But first, they have training for the conditions they will encounter. For the environmental project at Curu, the volunteers are going to help to build an artificial reef from recycled materials. This forms a protective environment for the fish to breed and feed. It helps the local economy of commercial fishing and protects the natural reefs from over-fishing and destruction. The community project is in one of the poorest rural areas in the world. In the village of El Porvenir, volunteers are going to make bricks. They’re going to help to build a storehouse for the important sesame crop. If they have more storage, the villagers will be able to make more money from selling sesame. Volunteers also take part in a survival activity. Tomorrow, this group is trekking to the summit of Costa Rica’s highest mountain, Mount Chirripo. At the end of the ten weeks, the volunteers are proud that their efforts have helped to improve the lives of the people and the environment of Costa Rica and Nicaragua.1. 17 to 252. 100 people3.

So what can I do for youSpeaker 2Well, next year’s my final year and I need to think seriously about my career.Speaker 1I would agree with you there. Let’s have a look at your file. You’re reading English, you’re getting good grades, you got a merit inyour first year exams and you’re on track for a 2:1 according to your tutor. Have you any idea what you’d like to doSpeaker 2I’m very drawn to publishing. I read a lot of novels and I’m quite a good critic.Speaker 1That’s a good start. I’m guessing you’d like to be a literary editorSpeaker 2That’s right.Speaker 1Well, I should tell you that literary editing is a hard profession to get into and it doesn’t pay very well, unless you’re at the top. You could think a bit more broadly than just literature. For example, there’s educational publishing, professional publishing and there’s also specialist publishing, such as sports.Speaker 2I’m not very sporty.Speaker 1Well, I understand sport may not be your thing but …you get the idea.Speaker 2Yes, I do. So how do I startSpeaker 1First of all, you need agood degree but even before that I would contact publishers and see if they’ll offer you work experience. You won’t get paid, of course, but it’s good for your CV and you’ll learn something about the business.Speaker 2Right. How do I find out who to write toSpeaker 1All the publishers are listed in the Publisher’s Yearbook. There’s a copy in the library in the careers section, so you can use that for a start. Check the job adverts in the newspapers and maybe look at the specialist publishing trade journal, the Bookseller. That has job ads as well.Speaker 2Thank you.Speaker 1The other thing you might do is check the Internet –sometimes, the publishers’websites offer internships or job experience opportunities for new graduates.Speaker 2I’ll do that.Speaker 1One other thing. Graduates studying Englishalways want to be an editor, they’re quite romantic about it, but there are other departments –marketing,sales, and the production side. Don’t dismiss those.Speaker 2Thanks for the advice, it’s very helpful. But it’s literary editing that I want to do.Speaker 1Well, I wish you the best. Let me know how you get on. And good luck with your exams.1.The five pieces of advice he career adviser gives the student are 1,2,4,7 and 82.1. The woman is to take her second year exams.2. She wants to do literary editing.3. She is drawn to publishing, reads a lot of novels and is quite a good critic.4. He tells her it is a hard profession to get into and doesn’t pay very well.5. It is very good for her CV and the woman will learn something about the business.6. She can find it in the careers section of the library.7. She should consider marketing, sales and production.8. She maintains that she wants to do literary editing.Passage2HarrySo how was your first day of teaching, LucyLucyIt was all right –wasn’t as terrifying as I thought it would be.HarryWell done!LucyYes, I was frightened I’d go completely blank but it was OK. I think the students were happy. It’s the grammar I find difficult, there’s so much to cover.JessicaIt’s extraordinary, isn’t it We speak English, we think we know the grammar and then we do a Teaching English course and discover we don’t know anything.LucyHow long have you been teaching, JessicaJessicaJust over two years. I did the training course and then got a job teaching in Japan –Tokyo. It was an eye-opener really –the whole thing about keeping face. You have to be so polite all the time.PatrickSo you’re teaching English because you want to travelJessicaYes, that’s part of it, but also because I enjoy it, I enjoy the interaction with students, and also it’s a good career.PatrickI feel the same. So what do you want to do nextJessicaMarketing, I think. I’m going to do a year here, then –I hope –get a job at a language school in London, do my MA, then apply for a marketing job. Anyway, that’s the plan.PatrickSounds good.HarryWhat about you, Patrick Where have you workedPatrickI did three years in Italy –Director of Studies in Rome. I want to spend a couple of years here, then work in London, hopefully become a teacher trainer. Your turn, Harry.HarryWell, I’m not like you and Jessica. I’m just happy to be here, in a beautiful city doing a job I enjoy.JessicaYou don’t see teaching English as a careerHarryWell, my thing is travel, for the moment anyway.LucyWhich countries have you been to, HarryHarryI did a year’s teaching in Brazil –Rio de Janeiro –such a stunning city and stunning beaches, Copacabana, and all overlooked by Sugar Loaf mountain.PatrickCool. And thenHarryTwo years in Mexico City …JessicaYou should be a travel writer.HarryI’m too busy travelling! In fact I just arrived from Spain three days ago, from Barcelona, I was teaching primary school kids.LucyGreat!HarryWell, we’re all giving our reasons for teaching English, so what’s yours, LucyLucyUm - I think I’m going to really enjoy it, simple as that. And obviously it’s great to be in Italy.

Do you know itJanet ：I’ve heard of it, yes, but I’ve never read it. It’s a 19th century children’s story, isn’t itKate ：That’s right. It’s very famous. It’s set in Oxford. It starts with this young girl sitting on a river bank. The interesting thing is, the author, Lewis Carroll, he was an Oxford professor and he used to have tea with the girl’s family on this river bank.Janet ：Oh, that’s fascinating! I’ll put it into my diary.Kate ：Is that what you’re writing I know you’ve been keeping a diary all the year. Janet It’s been a great year. I’ve had such a good time –so lucky to have Mark and Kate as friends. Feel I’ve been doing well with work. Much happier about asking questions in tutorials.Janet：My screen’s gone dark.Mark ：You’re using the battery, remember. It’s run out, obviously.Janet ：It can’t be the battery. It’s still charged. Oh no it’s still black. Oh dear, I hope it’s nothing serious. I haven’t backed anything up recently.Kate ：That’s not like you, Janet.Janet ：I know, but I lost my memory stick. I really should have backed things up. How stupid of me not to do that! Supposing I’ve lost everything!Mark ：Let me take a look. The power is still on. And also the operating system still seems to be working (I)think it has to be the graphics card …But maybe that’s not the problem …Janet ：If only I’d backed things up!KateRelax, Janet! We’ll take it to the computer shop this afternoon. I’m sure it’ll be OK.Janet ：I hope so.2.The true statements are 1, 6 and 83.1. The battery2. It can’t be, the battery is still charged.3.

We’ll be back soon.MarkIt’s not like Janet to forget to back up her work.KateShe should have been more careful.JanetIt was stupid of me, I know! Stupid, stupid!JanetOh! It was a dream!

However, we’re going to look at one of the biggest technological marvels of the 21st century. The Airbus A380 is the world’s biggest commercial aircraft. New technologies were used in the design, engineering and manufacture of this amazing “superjumbo”. The Airbus A380 is assembled in Toulouse in France, but parts of the aircraft are built in several European countries. They are brought to Toulouse by various means of transport. This is a ship which was built in China especially to transport the huge sections of the plane. Parts of the main body are built in Germany. Special carbon fibre materials are used to give the plane great strength with less weight than usual. The wings are made in Britain of the same carbon fibre material. They are much lighter than aluminum and steel. Several parts of the plane are built in factories in Spain. Finally, some sections are built inFrance, so Airbus has its own factories in Britain, France, Germany and Spain. One of the most important pieces of technology for such a huge aircraft is the landing gear. This is built in Canada where extensive tests are carried out to ensure that it can land under any conditions. The engines were developed by Rolls-Royce at Derby in Britain. Finally, pilots have to learn to fly the plane. This flight simulator at Toulouse uses the latest digital technology. Now for the moment of truth, with 154 planes ordered by the world’s airlines, the big question was: “Will it fly at all”On the day of the first flight, thousands of people gathered at Toulouse Airport to see the superjumbo fly for the first time. They were not disappointed. The biggest airliner in the history of aviation took to the air as planned.Topics mentioned are: 1, 3, 5, 6 and 82.1.France2. China3. Britain4.

CListening inPassage1PresenterCould technological advances be changing people’s identities –and possibly even society as a whole That is the theory behind a new book on the brain by Professor Susan Greenfield. The book is called Tomorrow’s People: How 21st Century Technology Is Changing the Way We Think and Feel. Greenfield suggests that advances in technology, and the effect they are having on our lives, are changing our very idea of who we are. In other words, they are changing our identity. And this, she thinks, is a very dangerous thing. I’m joined in the studio by Dr Jane Ferris, Professor of Neuroscience at Imperial College London and Brian Thomas, Professor of Surgery at University College Hospital. Let’s begin at the beginning. Brian, how do brains workBrianWell, a brain is a mass of neurons, and these neurons make connections with each other –billions of connections –and store information. We all have basically the same brain structure. It’s what we dowith our brain that makes the difference. We take in information. The neurons in our brain connect all this information and make sense of it. So to some extent, it’s the information we feed our brain that helps to make us the kind of people we are –and that’s what we call our identity.JaneAnd if I can come in here, children and young people are now spending huge amounts of time on video games that are often violent, also on the web, and on mobile phones. And Greenfield believes that the result is that these technologies may be changing the way young people think and even causing changes in theiridentity.PresenterWhy exactlyJaneBecause the information that an individual receives from computer games, for example, is very different from reality. And she fears that because of this, these technologies may be changing our sense of reality –what we see as real –and may even reduce it. And if this is happening, the result may well be changes in our behaviour.PresenterCan you give an exampleJaneRisk-taking is a good example –we may start taking more risks.BrianBut she admits there’s no conclusive evidence of this.JaneThat’s true.BrianI agree that Greenfield asks some interesting questions, but to say that technology can influence society to think and behave differently –we need much more research before we can accept this.2.1. presenter2.

How can anyone say otherwise They’ve revolutionized our lives. I mean, I don’t know where to begin, they’ve changed our lives so much. Look. To start with, computers mean we can communicate with anyone anywhere in the world almost instantly.Speaker 1That’s not quite true.Speaker2Well, you know what I mean. I can send a document from London to Sydney in five minutes. If I want to conference with people there’s webcam –we can see each other on camera –do you really want me to go onSpeaker 1But why is it so useful, to be able to send a documentto Australia in five minutes What does it actually achieve Speaker 2It speeds things up. I don’t have to put the document in an envelope, stick a stamp on it and go to the post office, stand in a queue …knowing it will take another three days to get there –at least.Speaker 1But why the hurrySpeaker 2It’s good to get things done quickly.Speaker 1WhySpeaker 2Because you get more done that way.Speaker 1But is that really necessarily better Life moves so fast these days, don’t you think we should slow down a bit, enjoy life a bit moreSpeaker 2I think computers allow us to enjoy life more. Before we had computers if you wanted to research you had to go out and get a book. That took such a long time.Speaker 1So what We just did things more slowly, that’s all. Are you saying we have more time now than we didEveryone says that actually life is moving faster and faster. And what about all the problems that computers createSpeaker 2For exampleSpeaker 1Identity theft is a big one. You have to admit that identify theft has increased massively since we got the Internet.Speaker 2The Internet isn’t the only reason why identity theft has increased.Speaker 1You know as well as I do that it’s a big reason …Speaker 2Yes, but …6.1. Do we really need computer2. Of course we need computers- they’ve revolutionized our lives3.We can send a document from London to Sydney in five minutes; we can use webcam to conference with people who are far away.4. Life moves so fast these days. Don’t you think we should slow down a bit, enjoy life a bit more7.1. I thought you mightsay that.2. That’s not quite true.3. But why is it so useful, to be able to send a document to Australia in five minute4. But why the hurry5.But is that really necessarily better6. So what7. You know as well as I do it’s a big reason.。

I think she doesn't want to go anywhere.Joanna: I know. It's odd isn't it. Never mind. We don't have to go out with anyone. Joanna: In fact. let's not go out with anyone.Joanna: OK. Just you and me. Bye!Part 2 Listening and Note-TakingMountain Rescue ServiceWhen an accident is reported to the Mountain Rescue Service the first thing that happens is that the person who reports the accident is closely questioned.The rescue group needs to find out a number of details. First, they need to know exactly where the accident happened, with a map reference if possible. Then they will want to know the time of the accident. They will also need to know how many people were involved in the accident and what kind of injuries there were. Finally, they will ask for other useful details, such as the colour of the victim's clothing and the weather conditions.Then the rescue team's call-out procedure begins. Team members keep their personal equipment at home so as to be ready to set off within fifteen minutes of receiving the call. The advance party of about four people sets off right away. They carry a radio telephone with them to send details to the main party and to the base. They are also equipped and trained to give immediate medical assistance.The main party follows the advance party. They carry a radio telephone and more supplies,including a stretcher for the victim. The third party on the mountain is the back-up group. Their job is to help the main party on its return journey.Rescue control is set up in a mobile base. This vehicle carries the team's supplies other than personal equipment. It is equipped with radio telephone and the means of providing hot food and drinks. The base is set up near a telephone so that extra help, for example ambulance, doctor,helicopter or reserves, can be contacted without delay.Exercise A:1.

You look beat. You look really tired.Mia: I am. I can't seem to sleep at night. I've been under a lot of pressure lately --a lot of stress.Friend: What's up?Mia: I've got a million things to do. I'm busy at work. I'm working on the house too, you know. I'm trying to fix it up. I need to finish it beforewinter. Just lots of deadlines.Friend: Any way I can help?Mia: Thanks, but not really. It's just things l have to do.Friend: Well, you need to manage that stress a little better. Are you getting any exercise?Mia: Who has time?Friend: You really should ride a bicycle to the store, or walk to work a couple of days a week, or go swimming at the community center. It helps me to getexercise when I'm busy. You don't have to become a fitness nut*, you know. Mia: That is a good suggestion. It's just the time, you know. I'm always thinking of what Ishould be doing.Friend: No wonder you can't sleep. A lot of people learn to meditate* or learn yoga.Meditation and yoga are supposed to be good ways to deal with stress. Theyhelp you relax.Mia: Yoga? Maybe I'll call the community center. They might have some classes there.Friend: You know, another thing you can do is to take vitamins. You use up a lot of vitamins andyou don't get them in your meals all the time. They won't help the stress, but they mighthelp your body handle it better. You really should take vitamins every day. Mia: Yeah, I should get some. Thanks.Friend: How about going out with Rosa and me this Friday? It'll do you good. We could see amovie, make you forget your problems.

Got to get back to work!Friend: Mia, you're hopeless, truly hopeless.Exercise A:F I. Mia looks fired and beaten. (You look beat means you look tired.)T 2. Mia has been under a lot of pressure probably because she finds it difficult to meet thedeadlines. (Mia: I've g6t a million things to do .... Just lots of deadlines.) T 3. She is repairing her house herself. (Mia: I'm working on the house too, you know. I'mtrying to fix it up.)T 4. Her friend believes exercise can help you relax.T 5. Her friend also believes that if you get regular exercises you will probably become afitness nut. (Friend: Well, you need to manage that stress a little better. Areyou gettingany exercise?)T 6. Mia has insomnia. (Mia: I can't seem to sleep at night.)T 7. Meditation and yoga are supposed to be good ways to deal with stress. (Friend: A lot ofpeople learn to meditate or learn yoga.

Mia will go out with her friend Friday evening. (Mia: OK. See you Friday.) T 10. Mia is probably a workaholic. (Mia: ... Got to get back to work! / Friend: Mia, you'rehopeless, truly hopeless.)Dialogue 2 ReflexologyReflexology* is foot massage. It comes from ideas of traditional Chinese medicine. Reflexology believes that rubbing parts of the foot can help other parts of the body.Woman: Did I tell you about the reflexology class I'm taking at the Asia Center? Man: The what class?Woman: Reflexology. It's foot massage ... you know, from Chinese medicine. Man: Foot massage?Woman: Yeah. It's wonderful. Here, let me show you what I've learned. Take off your shoes and socks.Man: Are you serious?Woman: Just try itMan: OK.Woman: The important thing to understand is that parts of your foot are connected to other partsof your body.Man: Yeah, my legs.Woman: No. I mean certain places on your foot are connected to other places, other parts of your body. So when you massage a part of your foot, it'sgood for another part. For example, look at your big toe.Man: Uh-huh.Woman: The area on the bottom of the big toe is connected to your brain. Do you have headaches?Man: Headaches? Sometimes.Woman: So just rub the area on the bottom of your big toe. It will help your brain. Man: Huh? Huh. [pause] Actually, my eyes hurt more often than my head. Myeyes get tired from using the computer at work.Woman: Massaging your other toes can help your eyes. On the bottom of each toe, there's a small area. They're round, like circles. Well, rubbing thesecircles makes your eyes feel better. It relaxes tired eyes.Man: Here? This area under each toe?Woman: Yeah. But that's not the only place for tired eyes. If your eyes really hurt, find the areaunder your two smallest toes ... there by your two smallest toes.Man: Uh-huh.Woman: It looks something like the letter "U." Massage that U. It will help when you feel really bad pain in your eyes. [pause]Man: What else?Woman: Well, now move down your foot on the outside. Find the widest part of your foot on theoutside, there's an area related to your shoulders. Massage it firmly -- not so hard that ithurts, but you should be firm. This will help the muscles in your shoulders.Man: Like stiff shoulders, that kind of thing?Woman: Right. [pause] Now let's look at the other side of your foot. On the inside of your foot, put your fingers near the top -- on the inside, just under thebig toe. Slowly and firmly, rub from the top all the way to your heel ... tothe end of your foot. This area will heal your back. If you have backaches,rub this long, narrow area several times a day.Man: The whole inside edge helps the back?Woman: That's right. [pause] How's your stomach? Do you get stomachaches? Man: Not very often ... well, sometimes, if I eat too much.Woman: Find the area in the center of your foot. It goes from the inside edge of your foot almostall the way to the other side. It's almost like a small egg. Massage it firmly. It can helpyour stomach.Man: Here, in the middle?Woman: Right. [pause] You can work on your knees, too. If you have sore knees, move your hand to the bottom, outside edge of your foot, the sole of yourfoot, by the heel. Rub firmly. [pause]Man: You know, this is kind of interesting. But actually, you know what hurts the most? My feet. I get blisters a lot.Woman: Blisters? Maybe you need bigger shoes.Part 2 PassageEating CultureDon’t Americans know that eating immoderate quantities of French fries and pizza can lead to overweight? Almost 80 percent know that high fat intake may lead to health problems, 86 percent are aware that cholesterol can mean trouble, and 88 percent know that sodium may have negative effects on health.This leaves obesity researchers struggling with the questions of why we eat a lot of fat when we know it makes us fat. What’s more, overweight is on the rise, even a s popular culture continues to celebrate slimness, to the point of embracing fashion models as standards of female beauty.A couple of different forces are pushing Americans toward overweight, even though we value slenderness. First, broad changes have conspired to make many adults feel stressed at home and work, from corporate downsizing to being a single parent. They eat as a form of release. People are eating more because it’s a form of gratification.Second, Americans live in the only country in the world where pie-eating contests are old-fashioned fun, and all-you-can-eat restaurants dot the landscape.Many obesity experts believe that cultural standards of slenderness are primarily embraced by white Americans, to whom slimness becomes more important with increasing income. Yet blacks, particularly black women, don’t necessarily buy into the slim-is-better philosophy.If there is greater acceptance of overweight among black women, it’s unclear whether it promotes their higher-than-average rates of overweight or results from them. One thing is certain: this high prevalence of overweight among blacks is not genetic. Obesity is not an issue for blacks native to Africa. The low household incomes of many blacks living in the U.S. may play a major role in their high levelsof overweight. If you’re poor, your learn to eat foods that yield the greatest amount of energy fro the lowest cost--that’s fat.B: C B B CCACAC: 1, They know that eating immoderate quantities of French fries and pizza can lead to overweight.2, People are eating more because it’s a form of gratification3, Americans live in he only culture in the world where pie-eating contests are old-fashioned fun, and all-you-can-eat restaurants dot the landscape.4, It is not genetic.5, Because they are poor and have to learn to eat foods that yield the greatest amount of energy for the lowest cost--- that’s fat.Part 3 NewsNews Item 1One in three of us will be diagnosed with cancer during our life. The disease tends to affect older people —but can strike at any time. Excluding certain skin cancers, there were more than 270,000 new cases of the disease in 2001 —and the rate is increasing by about 1% a year. Some cancer, such as breast, are becoming more common, while new cases of lung cancer fall away due to the drop in the number of smokers. However, while the overall number of new cancers is not falling, the good news is that successful treatment rates for many of the most common types are im-proving rapidly.Exercise A：This news item is about the present situation of cancer.Exercise B:1.

New cases of lung cancer fall away due to the drop in the number of smokers5., The good new is that successful treatment rates for many of the most common types are improving rapidly.News Item 2A new World Bank study warns that HIV and AIDS may damage African economies far worse than had been believed. The reports said African nations with high rates of AIDS could see as much as half of their entire domestic product disappear within 90 years. The study shows that AIDS kills mostly young adults. Many children are then left without parents. It said children whose parents die of AIDS are less likely to complete their education. As a result, they failed to gain the skills to make them productive adults. The study said that immediate action must be taken to keep infected people alive so that they can care for and educate their children.Exercise A:This news item is about a new World Bank study which warns that HIV andAIDS may damage African economies far worse than had been believed.Exercise BI.A new World Bank study warning1.

TSection Three Oral WorkRetellingScreenwriters, as Tom Schulman quickly learned, have long been the lowest members on the Hollywood totem* pole."If I had any inclination to get a big head, the Oscars cured that," he once recalled. "The presenter who gave me the award [for Dead Poet's Society] was Jane Fonda She had recently been in the news because she had started dating Ted Turner.Anyway, she handed me the Oscar and 1 made my little speech and we went together into the pressroom where there was a small stage in front of bleachers* filled with about 60 press members, who were supposed to ask the winner questions.Jane 'and 1 took the stage and she said, "I'd like to introduce you to Tom Schulman who's just won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. Do you have any questions?"There was a barrage* of questions. "Jane, what's it like with Ted? Are you getting married?" etc. And she said, "Come on, this isn't my night, it's Tom's night. Please direct your questions to him."So there's a little pause and somebody says, "Tom, what's it like getting an Oscar from Jane'? What's your thought -- you think she'll many Ted?''Section Four Supplementary ExercisesThe Public Library of ScienceBefore scientists can earn a Nobel Prize, or any recognition, first they must get their work published. There are major publications like Science and Nature, but also many others. Some scientific publications cost a lot to receive in paper form. But most publishers also charge to read reports over the Internet. The reports often include findings of research paid for with public money.Some scientists think it is wrong to charge for scientific knowledge. Three years ago, a number of medical researchers organized the Public Library of Science. They urged scientific publishers to release reports on the Internet without charge. They were not satisfied with the steps taken. So the library decided to publish research on its own. The organizers say they hope to show that free sharing of scientific knowledge will speed the progress of science and medicine.Next year the Public Library of Science, or PLOS, will launch a publication called PLOS Medicine. Earlier this month the library released its first publication, PLOS Biology. It came out in print and online. The writers of the reports pay the costs of editing and publishing. As with many publications, other scientists read the articles to judge if the work should be published.One of the reports in PLOS Biology made a lot of news. The report tells about experiments in which scientists connected devices to the brains of monkeys. These devices permitted the monkeys to control a mechanical arm with their thoughts.Exercise A:1.

Why?Passage 2 CancerCancer is the general name for a large group of diseases. It occurs when cells in the body grow and divide out of control.Our bodies are made up of millions of cells. Layers of cells form tissues. Normal cells grow, divide, and die in an orderly way. This process helps keep our bodies healthy.Cancer cells grow and divide too quickly. The process usually starts when something damages the genetic structure (DNA*) inside the cells, instead of dying in an orderly way, cancer cells keep growing, lump together* and form an extra mass of tissues. This mass is called a malignant tumor. As a malignant* tumor grows, it damages nearby tissue. A malignant tumor can take a long time (up to 30 years) or a short time (2 or 3 years) to cause symptoms. Cancer can begin in one part of the body and spread to others. This is called metastasis*. During metastasis; cancer cells travel through the body. In the new location, cancer cells create a new malignant tumor and grow out of control.Not all tumors are malignant. Some are benign, which means they aren't cancerous. Benign tumors usually aren't life threatening. They can usually be removed and rarely come back.We're not exactly sure what causes cancer. We don't always know why one person gets it and another doesn't. However, we do know a lot about the risk factors for cancer. The more we know about the risk factors, the more we can do to protect ourselves.Risk is a person's chance of getting a disease over a certain period of time.A person's risk factors make up a person's risk.A risk factor is anything that raises or lowers a person's chance of getting a disease. You can control some of them, but not all of them. Risk factors for cancer include:◆ A lifestyle choice, like what a person eats;◆An environmental exposure, like smoke from other people'scigarettes;◆Genetic make-up or family history;◆Another disease or medical problem.These things mix together with different effects on different people. Some people are more sensitive to risk factors than others. Just because you have one or even several risk factors does not mean you will definitely get cancer. And avoiding risk factors does not guarantee you will be healthy.Exercise A:Risk factors for cancer include the followings:1. A lifestyle choice, like what a person eats;2.

I went to visit my grandparents in Los Angeles. I felt very nervous about traveling so far, but my mother said, “Don’t worry. You’ll be fine.” I got on the airplane and talked for a long time to a very nice woman who sat next to me. Ma grandparents met me at the airport and took me to their home. I stayed there for two weeks, and I had so much fun with them! It was my first time in Los Angeles, and I saw lots of really interesting places. I the end, I didn’t want to go home!Activity 4: Making memories Audio Track 2- 1-7A popular new hobby is scrapbooking---making beautiful books to hold special memories. Scrapbook pages can include photos, drawings, journalentries. It’s not hard to make a scrapbook that you will enjoy for many years. Here are the steps.1. Choose a theme for your scrapbook pages. Some examples: “School days, “Family travel,” “Memories of my grandparents,” “Baby’s first year.”2. Select photos for each page. Two or three really good photos are better than ten so-so photos.3. Find other paper keepsakes to use with your photos. Look for old newspaper clippings, postcards, tickets, report cards, letters---anything made of paper. Use your imagination!4. Design the pages. Put photos and keepsakes together on each page and move them around until you find a layout that you like.5. Glue your photos and keepsakes into place. Then decorate your pageswith felt pens, paint, and stickers. Use your imagination!6. Label your pages. This is the most important step! Remember to write down the “5 Ws” of your photos: Who, What, Where, When, and Why. This will make your scrapbook much more interesting and valuable in the future.Activity 5: A book of memories Audio Track 2- 1-9 Yearbook in the United StatesMost high schools in the United States publish a yearbook. The yearbook comes out once a year, usually in the spring. It is a record of the schoolyear---a “book of memories” for the stud ents.Inside a yearbook is each student’s photo. The seniors are graduating soon, and their photos appear first. Next are the juniors. They are one year behind the seniors. Next come the sophomores, or second-year students. Thelast photos are the first year students, the freshmen. The yearbook is notonly about students.The teachers have photos, too. The yearbook also has photos anddescriptions of sports teams, academic subjects, and extracurricularactivities. These are activities students do after school, such as the chess club and Spanish club. There is even a yearbook club. Students in this club write, design, and take photos all year for the2大学英语视听说教材听力原文第三版（第二册）yearbook. At the end of the year, the book is printed.In the yearbook, some students receive special titles. The seniors voteand choose the “class clown” (a funny student), the “most likely to succeed”(a student everyone thinks will be successful), and the “best dressed” (a student with a good fashion sense). There are also other awards and categories.Students typically sign each other’s yearbooks. This is especiallyimportant for the seniors, because they are graduating. Students write notesto each other, such as, “We had a lot of fun,” or “I’ll never forget you.” They also write about all the fun and funny experiences they shared in school together.Keys:OL1: A. 2-passport; 1-diary; 3-yearbook B. 1. boyfriend 2.

And…er…on the left here are dining room table and chairs.W: Oh yes.M: Yes.H: And er…straight ahead of us…um…foldaway double bed and mattress, which I think you’ll agree is quite a novel idea.M: Oh yes.H: And then…um…to…W: Behind the armchair.H: Yes, behind the armchair. To our right, um…in the corner there, a fitted wardrobe. And another one on my left here.W: On either side of the bed?H: Yes, that’s right.

No problems about that—don’t have to wash them of course. And…um…on the left of the…er…sofa there, you can see nice coffee tables.H: If…if we move straight a … straight ahead, actually, into the …er… the kitchen you can see that um…on my left here we’ve got a washing machine, tumble dryer and …um…electric cooker…W: Oh yes.M: Mmm.H: All as you can see to the most modern designs.

(Hi.) Come on in.R: Uh, yeah, I stopped by to see if you were still looking for a roommate to share your house.D: Yep. I sure am. Ever since I cut back on my working hours to go to school, I’ve been really strapped for cash.R: Oh.D: Hey, let me show you the place. Uh, here’s the living room.R: Oh. It looks like you could use a new carpet…and those stains?D: Well, I’ve had a few problems with some former roommates. I know it needs to be cleaned, but I just don’t have the money to do it right now.R: Oh. And what about the kitchen?D: Right this way. Look. It’s completely furnished with all the latest appliances, except…R: What?D: Well, the refrigerator door is broken…a little bit…and it won’t shut all the way. It needs fixing, but don’t worry. I’ve just impoversihed by pushing a box against it to keep it shut.R: Hmm. Great.D: Ah. It isn’t that bad.R: Well how about the bathroom?D: Well…R: No, no. Don’t tell me. The toilet is clogged or the sink has a few leaks.D: No, those work fine, but, uh, the tile in the shower needs to be replaces, and the window needs fixing.R: Let me see. The tile…what? The window? Where’s the window pane?D: Well, that’s another slight problem. I’ve put up a piece of cardboard to keep out the (Hmmm) rain and snow, and if it gets a little cold, you can always turn up the heat. Well, you used to until the central heating went out. (Oh, boy.)R: Hey, I think I’ve seen enough. I can’t believe you’ve survived under these conditions.D: So what do you think? You really can’t beat a place like this for $450 a month. So it has its problems, but we can fix those.R: Uh, no thank you. I think I’ve seen enough.Part Ⅱ1. My dream house would be a canal boat. I’d like to wake up every morning and see the water. Erm, I’d paint it bright red, and it would have a little roof-garden for all my pot-plants.2. My ideal house would be modern, ermm, it would be made of bricks, and it would have white pillars outside the front door, and it would be detached…on yes, it would have a garage.3. My ideal home would be to live in a cottage in a small village by the sea. Er, somewhere like Cornwall, so it’s unspoilt and there are cliffs and trees around.4. I think if I could have any sort of house, I’d like one of those white-walled villas in Spain. (It’d) Be marvelous to be able to just fall out of bed and into the sea first thing in the morning. (It’d) Be absolutely great. All that heat. Marvelous.5. I’ve always wanted to live in a really big house in the country, a big family house with, er…at least two hundred years old, I think, with a big garden, and best of all I’d like to have a dry-stonewall around the garden. I’ve always lived dry-stone walls.6. D’you know, I may sound daft but what I’ve always wanted to do is live somewhere totally isolated, preferably somewhere enormous like a castle or something, you know, right out in…by the sea or even sort of in a little island, on an island, you know, out at sea, where you have to get there by a boat or something, where it’s cut off at high tide. I think it’d be really great. Questions1. According to the first speaker, in what color would her dream house be painted?2. Where would she put all her pot-plants?3. In the second speaker’s opinion, what would there be outside the front door of his ideal house?4. What would there be around the third speaker’s ideal home?5. When the fourth speaker got up in the morning, what would he do first?6. What is Spain famous for?7. According to the fifth speaker, what would she like to have around the garden of her dream house?8. How should one get to the last speaker’s ideal house?Part ⅢW—Wendy Stott H—House ownerW: Oh hello. (Hello.) My name’s Wendy Scott. Did the estate agent ring you and tell you I was coming?H: Oh yes, yes I was expecting you. Do come in. (Thank you.) Have you had the particulars and everything? Did the estate agent give you, you know, all the details?W: Oh yes. Yes I have, and I was rather interested; that was why I came round this afternoon. You seem to have decorated quite recently…H: Yes, oh, yes, it was decorated last year. Now this is the … this is the kitchen.W: Yes…er… What kitchen equipment are you leaving behind or are you going to take it all?H: Well, you know it rather depends on what I end up buying. I’ve got something in mind at the moment but as you know these things can take ages (Yes.) but the place I’m going to has no gas so I’ll probably be leaving this stove, this oven here.W: Is it…is it quite new? Have you had it long?H: Oh, no, not long. It’s about five or six years old. (I see.) I’ve found it very reliable but I shall be taking that fridge but you can see everything else. It’s a fully fitted kitchen.W: Yes, what about the dishwasher…um…is that a dishwasher under the sink?H: No, no, that’s a washing machine, I shall be taking that, yes, I will but there is plumbing for a washing machine. (Right.)W: Is the gas cooker the only gas appliance you’ve got?H: No, no, there is a gas fire but I don’t use it very much; it’s in the main room, the lounge.W: Oh. Right. That seems fine.H: Well, then across here if you’d like to come in with me, this is the sitting room. (Oh. Yes.) Well you can see for yourself it is really.W: Oh I like the windows, right down to the floor, that’s really nice…H: Yes, yes, they are nice. It’s got a very pleasant view and there’s a balcony you can sit out on in the summer. (Yes, it’s a nice view.) Yes, it is nice. Now then across here this is the smallest bedroom; (Yes.) there are three rooms, this is the smallest and it’s no more really than a box room but of course you can get a bed in.W: You could make it into a study. It would be more useful I think.H: Yes, well I think somebody else has got this room as a study. Then this…this is the second bedroom. (Yes.) As you can see it’s got a fitted cupboard and those shelves there they are also fitted.W: Have you got an airing cupboard anywhere?H: Oh. Yes, there’s one in the bathroom. I’ll show you that in a moment. (Oh right.) Now this is the third bedroom, this is the largest bedroom. (Oh.) Of course it’s got the wash basin, double fitted cupboard, plenty of space really, there, (Very nice.) and of course this room does take the double bed. Now…um…this is the bathroom. There’s the airing cupboard. (Is that the airing cupboard?) Yes, that’s right. It’s nice and warm in there; it’s rather small but I mean it is adequate, you know, and of course there is…there is the shower.W: Is that, did you put that in yourself or was it in with the flat?H: Oh, no. No that was in when the flat was built.W: Is it quite reliable? (Oh yes.) because I’ve had problems with a shower recently? (Yes, no I’ve never had problems with that. No. It’s really good.) Is it gas heated at the water point?H: No, that is electric. (Ah.)Statements:1. Wendy Stott knows nothing about the flat before she comes to have a look at it.2. The flat was decorated five or six years ago.3. The house owner has used the oven and the stove for about five or six years.4. The windows in the largest bedroom are right down to the floor.5. There is a balcony in the sitting-room.Part ⅥInterviewer: how important are property prices in the economy?Roy: In the UK, most people invest most of their money in their house. So property prices are extremely important.Interviewer: Mmm. What’s you view on the UK property market? Do you think prices are too high?Roy: Well, in recent years, prices have gone up…ten to twenty percent a year, um…in some years even more. But inflation has been just two or three percent a year. So I think it’s clear that, um…the bloom has to end.Interviewer: Mmm. The last property market crash, in the UK, was in the late 1980s, and it put the UK economy into a recession. Do you think the same thing will happen again.Roy: I don’t think prices will crash. The…the economic situation was different in the late 80s…interest rates rose quite fast just before property prices fell. Today the Bank of England is much more careful with… with changes in interest rates. The other important difference, I think, is that then unemployment was quite high. Today, it’s very low—about five percent. So I don’t think prices will crash, but it is possible they’ll fall a little. Or stay at the same level for a few years.Interviewer: Banks have lent people a lot of money in recent years. People have got big mortgages. Do you think there’ll be a problem? Will people have less money to spend in the future?Roy: Oh, certainly. Because the loan haven’t just been mortgages — people have also borrowed money to spend in the shops. So far, that’s helped the economy, because spending has been high. But at the end of the day, people will have to pay the money back. So I think we’ll see lowerconsumer spending over the next few years.PartⅤApartment manager: well, hi, Mr. Brown. How’s your apartment working out for you?Tenant: Well Mr. Nelson. That’s what I would like to talk to you about. (What?) Well, I want to talk to you about that noise! (Oh) You see. Would you mind talking to the tenant in 4B and ask him to keep his music down, especially after 10:00 o’clock at night?Apartment Manager: Ohhh. Who me?Tenant: Why yes. The music is blaring almost every night, and it should be your job as manager to take care of these things.Apartment Manager: Hey, I just collect the rent. Besides, the man living there is the owner’s son, and he’s a walking refrigerator. (Well . . .) Hey, I’ll see what I can do. Anything else?Tenant: Well, yes. Could you talk to the owners of the property next door about the pungent odor drifting this way.Apartment Manager: Well, the area is zoned for agricultural and livestock use, so there’s nothing much I can do about that.Tenant: Well, what about the . . . . That, that noise.Apartment Manager: What noise? I don’t hear anything.Tenant: There, there it is again.Apartment Manager: What noise?Tenant: That noise.Apartment Manager: Oh, that noise. I guess the military has resumed its exercises on the artillery range.Tenant: You have to be kidding. Can’t anything be done about it?Apartment Manager: Why certainly. I’ve protested this activity, and these weekly (Weekly!) activities should cease . . . within the next three to five years.Tenant: Hey, you never told me about these problems before I signed the rental agreement.。

And welcome to our midweek Phone-In. In today's program we' re going to concentrate on personal problems. And here with me in the studio I've got Tessa Colbeck,who writes the...in Flash magazine, and Doctor Maurice Rex, Student Medical Adviser at the University of Norfolk.The number to ring with your problem is oh one, if you are outside London, two two two, two one two two. And we have our first caller on the line, and it s Rosemary, I think, er calling fromManchester. Hello, Rosemary.Rosemary: Hello.Radio presenter: How can we help you, Rosemary?Rosemary: Well it s my dadwHn't let me stay out after ten o'clock atnight and all my friends can stay out much longer than that. I always have to go home first. It's really embarrassing...Tessa:Hello, Rosemary, love. Rosemary, how old are you, dear?Rosemary: I'm fifteen in two month's time.Tessa:And where do you go at night?--When you go out?精品文档精品文档Rosemary: Just to my friend's house, usually. But everyone else can stay there much later than me. I have to leave at about a quarter to ten.Tessa:And does this friend of yours-does she live near you?Rosemary: It takes about ten minutes to walk from her house to ours.Tessa:I see. You live in Brighton, wasn't it? Well ,Brighton's ... Rosemary: No, Manchester (iv)in Manchester.Tessa:oh. I ’m sorry, love. I ’m getting mixed up. Yes, well Manchester's quite a rough city, isn't it ? I mean, your dad...Rosemary: No, not really. Not where we live, it isn't. I don't live in the City Center or anything like that.

Have you talked about this with your dad?Rosemary: No. He just shouts and then he says he won't let me go out at all if I can't come home on time.Maurice: Why don't you just try to sit down quietly with your dad- sometime when he's relaxed--and just have a quiet chat about it?

And maybe you could persuade him to come and pick you up精品文档精品文档from Christine's house once or twice.Rosemary: Yes .I don't think he'll agree to that, but I'll talk to him about it . Thanks.PART 3Josephine: We did feel far more stability in our lives, becauseyou see ... in these days I think there's always a concern that families will separate or something, but in those days nobody expected the families to separate.Gertrude: Of course there may have been smoking, drinking and drug-taking years ago, but it was all kept very quiet, nobody knew anything about it. But these days there really isn't the family life that we used to have. The children seem to do more as they like whether they know it's right or wrong. Oh, things are very different I think.Question: What was your parents' role in family life?Josephine: Well, my mother actually didn't do a tremendous amount in the house, but she did do a great deal of work outside and she was very interested, for example, in the Nursing Association collecting money for it. We had somebody who looked after us and then we also had someone who did the cleaning.Gertrude: Well, we lived in a flat, we only had three rooms and a bathroom. Father worked on the railway at Victoria Station and my mother didn't work, obviously. My father's wage I think was about two精品文档精品文档pounds a week and I suppose our rent was about twelve shillings a week, you know as rent was - I'm going back a good many years. We didn't have an easy life, you know and I think that's why my mother went out so much with her friends. It was a relief for her, you know really. Question: Did you have a close relationship with your parents? Josephine: In a sense I would say not very close but we, at that time, didn't feel that way, we didn't think about it very much I don't think. I think today people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything, which we didn't. Then, of course, we used to play a lot of games, because we didn't have a television or even a radio and we would play games in the evenings rather than have conversation, I think.Question: Was there more discipline in families in those days? Josephine: Oh yes, I do think so, yes. We were much more disciplined and we went about as a family and it wasn't until I was probably about 18 before I would actually go out with any friends of my own.Statements:1.Seventy years ago young people often smoked and drank in front of others.2.Apart from a great deal of work outside, Josephine's mother also looked after her children and did the cleaning in the house.3.Gertrude's father earned two pounds a week.精品文档4.Gertrude's family had to pay ten shillings a week for their flat.5.Young people seventy years ago deeply felt that they did not have a very close relationship with their parents.6.Nowadays people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything to them.Part 4Q: Parent Link is an organization that looks at the problems that parents and children face. Its director, Tim Kahn, told us about the changing roles of parents and children.T: The authoritarian model was one in which the child had no rights and I guess in the 60s and perhaps the 70s many people rejected that and we had the sort of the permissive era---the age where many parents felt they had to allow their children to do whatever they wanted to do and so in a sense the roles were reversed and it was the children who were the bosses and the parents who ran around behind them. The ideas that we offer to parents are kind of a third position in which we' rdooking at equals, where parents and children are different but equal.Q: What about changes in the male-female roles?T: Society has changed a lot. As well as technology leading to great changes, people ' rsles have changed very much, in particular the women s movement has very much questioned the role of women and led many women to demand a freer choice about who they are and how they精品文档can be. There ' s a lot of frustration with how men haven seems to me that the more the frustrationt changed, is expressed the more stuck in and being the same men are and we need to find ways of appreciating men for the amount of work that they have to do in being bread-winners and providers for families and appreciating the efforts men are making to be more involved with their children.Q: Are there any changes you would like to see in the attitude to family life in Britain?T: In the past there were arranged marriages and I wonder if part of having an arranged marriageis knowing that you have to work at it to create the love and that now people are getting marriedout of love and there ' s a kind of feeling that yo love is there and it will stay there for ever and wedon' have to work at it and when it gets tricky we don' t know how to work at it and so we opt out.I think helping people learn to work at their relationships to make their relationship work wouldbe a significant thing that I ' d like to see happening.Part 5BLouisa: She doesn't let me watch that much TV after school, which is really annoying because mostof my friends watch Home and Away and Neighbors but I only get to watch one of them. I sometimes don't ——I mean I think that's really unfair so sometimes I just watch both anyway.精品文档精品文档Mother: First and foremost, Louisa watches a fair amount of television whether she thinks she'sdeprived or not, she must watch at least 45 minutes per day. And when I'm not around you knowI know the child sneaks in a fair amount more than that. So she gets in a fair amount of television,certainly on the weekends. But I am of the opinion that television, very very very few programs will teach them anything. And I think when a child is under your care for 18 years it's the parents' responsibility to make sure that the input is of value, and I don't think television, much television is of any value at all, I think reading a book and doing her piano lessons are far more valuable than watching crummy American soap operas.Questions for memory test:1.How many TV plays are mentioned?2.For how long a time does Louisa watch TV per day?3.Does Louisa try to get more time to watch TV?4.Which activities does Louisa's mother think are far more valuable?精品文档精品文档CMy parents gave me a lot of free time. After dinner, during the week when I was say even 15 years old they would let me go out until ten o'clock and they would never ask where I went. I would smoke cigarettes and drink beer, at 15 years old I would hang out in the ... in the local pubs and these were type of things that I don't think were too good for me at that time. I thinkmy parents should have, you know, maybe at least showed an interest as to where I was going. They never even asked where I was going and they, they gave me a lot of free time, and I think that they, they felt that this was a thing that was being a good parent. But I think that teenagers are very naive, and I was as a teenager very naive, and I think I could have used a little more direction from them. These days a lot of parents think they should be lenient with their children, they should let them grow and experience on their own. And I think that's what my parents were doing, I think there's a Biblical saying "Spare the rod, spoil the child" and I think that really applies. And I think you need to direct especially young people. They can be thrown into such a harsh world, especially if you live in a city. I lived in a very small village and it was still a rough crowd that I found in that village. And my parents never asked questions, and if they only knew they would be shocked.精品文档精品文档Statements:1.When the boy was 15 years old, he could stay out until ten o'clock.2.At the age of 15, the boy was not allowed to smoke cigarettes or drink beer.3.The boy thought his parents were very good because they gave him a lot of free time.4.The boy lived in a very crowded city.精品文档。
