have you made any plans to go away during semester break? I've been thinking of skiing.
I really haven't had time to think about my vacation. I've been concentrating on getting ready for my exams, especially Philosophy. But I'll probably go to the beach.
Why the beach?
Well. It would be nice to get away from this cold weather and just lie in the sun and relax after working so hard. It's true that skiing does require work. And you have to get up early and wait in long lines for the chair leaves. Thanks. I think you help me make up my mind.
Sure. Now maybe you can use your mind to think about something else, like your studies.

Hello, Jim. I haven't seen you in a while.
What seem to be the problem?
Actually I'm a little embarrassed about coming here. I feel fine right now. but you know how much stuff is going around. And every year around the holidays like clockwork I come down with something.
So you're interested in prevention. What symptoms do you usually get?
You know, cough, fever, runny nose, my head and bones ache, chills even. I'm usually miserable for a week and it ends up ruining my holidays.
Sounds like a typical flu to me. As you said, lots of people have it influence often strikes when people are over tried stressed out and not eating nutritious food. And also you increase your exposure to a virus when you're in big crowds where lots of people are coughing and sneezing.
I certainly spend a lot time in department stores around the holidays buying gifts for people.
Yes. And so you increase your exposure to airborne viruses just when your body's resistance is already low from all the running around you do.
So what can I do to ward off the flu?
Actually it's fairly simple. Get a lot of rest, eat well. That way your immune system will be boosted. And you'll be more able to fight off illness.
All these things make sense. But one more question. Aren't I bound to get sick anyway if there's an outbreak in the dorm?
Oh, you didn't mention you lived in the dormitory. In that case I'd also suggest you get immunized. The vaccine available prevents' the three main types of influenza. Why don't you go to the university health center. The shots are free there.
I'll do it right away. It will be nice to feel well during. The holidays for once.
你好,吉姆。我还有段时间没有见你了。
似乎是什么问题?
实际上我有点尴尬来到这里。现在我感觉很好。但是你知道有多少东西转来转去。每年在假日期间我就会生病，像钟摆一样。
所以你感兴趣的是预防。你一般是什么症状?
你知道,咳嗽、发烧、流鼻涕、我的头和骨头酸痛,甚至发冷。我通常悲惨的一个星期,它最终会毁了我的假期。
听起来像一个典型的传染。就像你说的,很多人都有它的影响力经常罢工,当人们在试着紧张和不吃有营养的食物。而且你也增加你接触到病毒,当你在大的人群,那里很多人咳嗽和打喷嚏。
我当然花很多时间在百货商店在假日期间的人买礼物。
是的。所以你增加你接触到空中的病毒只是当你的身体已经很低的阻力来自所有运行在你做的。
所以我能做些什么来抵御流感吗?
实际上这是相当简单的。得到充分的休息、吃好。这样你的免疫系统会增强。和你将更能抵御疾病。
所有这些事情意义。但一个问题。不,我一定要生病无论如何,如果爆发疫情在宿舍?
哦,你没有提你住在宿舍。在这种情况下我也建议你获得免疫接种。该疫苗可预防’的三种主要的流感。
你为什么不去大学健康中心。这个注射是免费的。
我马上去做。将会有好舒服的假期。

As freak rainstorms lashed in the central and southern sections of the state, part of the museum's roof which was scheduled to be repaired collapsed and water cascaded into two storerooms. The museum director said that several well known pieces, including oils, watercolors and frescoes, had been damaged, although only one objects, a 19 century fresco was damaged beyond repair. She added that inspection for damages has not been completed and therefore she could not estimate costs of the repair and replacement.

welcome to the New Bedford institute's, series of lectures on the mysteries of the sea. You may have noticed the drawing on the cover of the program for today's presentation. It depicts a sea creature that scientists have been interested in for many years. It is said that in the 19th century a group of fishermen were surprised by seeing a huge squid that they said was as big as a house and had enormous tentacles. The fishermen were frightened out of their wits according to reports from that time. The creature sank back into the ocean and was never seen again. Marine biologists believed that this species of giant squid called architect is still exits. And is comes to represent how little we know about sea creatures. Compared with what we know about the animals on the land. We do know that there are many more different kinds of marine species than there are land species. But we just don't have the technology yet to do sustained research. Even short unmanned trips are so hard to accomplish. In fact researching in the deep oceans has been compared to flying an airplane overland throwing down a net and seeing what you get. In other words it's very hard to picture the whole situation when that's the way you have to get your samples. Most of what is known about deep sea creatures, which as I said is actually very little, comes from ocean beds that dried up long ago. We're fortunate to have a few samples of these fossil remains on display on the second floor. We'll take a look at them after a while.
欢迎来到新贝德福德学院的,一系列的演讲在海的奥秘。您可能已经注意到画的封面上程序对于今天的演讲。它描述了一种海洋生物,科学家们感兴趣的是对于许多年。据说,在19世纪的一群渔夫吃惊的看到一个巨大的鱿鱼,他们说的那样大的房子,有巨大的触须。渔民们被吓得惊慌。据报道从那个时候。该生物倒进海洋,也从来没有出现过了。海洋生物学家认为,这个物种的巨型鱿鱼称为架构师仍然存在。和是来代表我们并不了解海洋生物。而我们所知道的关于动物的土地上。我们知道有很多不同种类的海洋物种比陆地生物。但我们没有技术没有持续研究。即使是短期的无人驾驶的旅行是如此难以实现。事实上研究海洋深处被比作驾驶飞机扔下陆路净,看到你所得到的。换句话说它很难画整个情况:你必须让你的样品。大
多数关于深海生物,就像我说的其实是非常小的,来自海洋的床,干涸很久以前。我们幸运地拥有的一些示例,这些化石一直陈列在二楼。我们将看看他们一会儿。
43. Why were the fishermen frightened of the squid?
44. What does the giant squid symbolize to biologists?
45. What does the airplane example illustrate about the deep sea research?
46. Where has most of the information about rare sea creatures been found?

With the introduction of radio, newspaper publishers wondered how broadcasting would affect them. Many feared that radio as a quick and easy means of keeping people informed would displace the newspaper industry altogether.
Others hoped that the brief newscast heard on the air would stimulate listeners interested in the story so they'd buy the paper to get more information. This second idea turned out to be closer to the truth. Radio & print were not substitutes for each other but actually supported each other. You see the relation ship between different media is not always one of displacement but can be one of reinforcement. However this is not always the case. Take television & motion pictures for example, with the popularization of TV, the motion picture industry suffered greatly. Movie attendance dropped when audience members chose to stay at home and be entertained. Likewise. When a football game was shown on the air, the stands were often empty because fans chose to watch the game at home.
通过引入广播,报纸出版商想知道他们如何会影响。广播许多人担心,无线电作为一个快速和方便的途径让人通知将取代报纸业。
另一些则希望简短的新闻上听到空气会刺激听众感兴趣的故事,所以他们会买报纸来获取更多的信息。这第二个想法被证明是更接近真相。广播和印刷没有替代品对方,但实际上支持彼此。你看到不同媒体之间的亲情关系并不总是一个位移的但可以是其中一个强化。然而这并非总是如此。把电视和电影例如,电视的普及,电影行业蒙受了重大损失。电影上座率下降时观众选择呆在家里和消遣。同样的。当一个足球比赛上标明有转播,看台上通常是空的,因为影迷们选择在家观看比赛。
47. What is the main topic of this talk?
48. According to the speaker, what is the relationship between radio & the newspaper industry?
49. According to the speaker, how did the introduction of television affect motion pictures?
50. Why does the speaker mention a football game?
