He tells the timid man, “If you ever hear that Big John is coming to town, (S3) dr op everything and run for the hills! He’s the biggest, nastiest (S4) outlaw who’s ever lived!”A few weeks pass (S5) uneventfully. But one afternoon, a local cowhand comes running through town (S6) yelling, “Big John is coming! Run for your (S7) lives!”When the bartender leaves the bar to start running, he is knocked to the ground by several townspeople rushing out of town. (S8) As he’s picking himself up, he sees a large man, almost seven feet tall. He’s muscular, and is growing as he approaches the bar.He steps up to the door, orders the poor barkeep inside, and demands, “I want a beer NOW!”He strikes his heavy fist on the bar, splitting it in half. (S9) The bartender nervously hands the big man a beer, hands shaking. He takes the beer, bites the top of the bottle off, and downs the beer in one gulp.As the terrified bartender hides behind the bar, the big man gets up to leave, “Do you want another beer?” the bartender asks in a trembling voice.“Dang it, I don’t have time!” the big man yells, (S10) “I got to get out of town! Don’t you hear Big John is coming?”Task3: A View of HappinessScriptDr. Smith has proposed a reasonable, if perhaps somewhat oversimplifies, view of happiness. According to his theory, happiness might be described as a state if balance. And when humanor certain animals achieve that balance, they rend to remain in that condition in order to repeat the happy feeling.To illustrate this, we may study two magnets. When their positive and negative poles meet, they are comfortably joined, and they remain there. In other words, they have attained a balance or state of happiness. If on the other hand, one of the poles is reversed, and positive pole is presses against positive pole, there is resistance, instability, imbalance a state of unhappiness.Animals with some degree of intelligence seem to find happiness in reinforcement. Once they have gained one or more of their goals such as food, and water, they learn to repeat the actions that led to satisfaction of those goals. This repetition or reinforcement produces a state of balance or sense of happiness.According to this theory, only animals with a significant capacity to learn should be able to experience happiness. But in truth learning can take place through surprisingly simple short-term action such as scratching an itch, followed by pleasure, followed by more scratching, and so on. Thus learning can occur with almost no conscious thought.For human beings, blessed with the ability to reason, goals are not limited to the short-term satisfaction of needs. Indeed, there is a strong link between happiness and the fulfillment of long-term goals. Even if human strive for goals that are more complex and longer-term than the animals’ goals, once those goals are gained, happiness is reinforce d.1. Why does the speaker mention “magnets”?2.

Today I invite you to join me in an exploration off the causes of depression. There ate many factors involved, but I believe some deserve special attention.Heredity certainly plays a role. .The tendency to develop depression may be inherited; there is evidence that this disorder may run in families.Physiology is another factor related to depression. There may be changes or imbalances in chemicals which transmit information in the brain called neurotransmitters. Many modern antidepressant drugs attempt to increase levels of certain neurotransmitters so as to increase brain communication. While the causal relationship is unclear; it is known that antidepressant medications do reliever certain symptoms of depression.Researchers also study psychological factors. They include the complex development of one’s personality and how one has learned to cope with external environmental factors, such as stress. It is freeqently observed that low self-esteem and self-defeating thinking are connected with depression. While it is not clear which is the cause and which is the effect, it is known that sufferers who are able to make corrections to their thinking patterns can show improved mood and self-esteem.Another factor causing depression is one’s early experiences. Events such as the death of a parent, the divorce of the parents, neglect, chronic illness, and severe physical abuse can also increase the likelihood of depression later in life.Some present experiences may also lead to depression. Job loss, financial difficulties, long periods of unemployment, the loss of a spouse or other family member, or other painful events may trigger depression. Long-term stress at home, work, or school can also be involved.It is worth nothing that those living with someone suffering from \depression experience increased anxiety which adds to the possibility of their also becoming depressed.Depression-causing Factors Problem Description SolutionHeredity It is inherited and run in families.Physiology changes or imbalances in chemicals called neurotransmitters, which transmit information in the brain A ntidepressant drugs relieve certain symptoms of depression.

Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: Reason and EmotionScriptEmotion is sometimes regarded as the opposite of reason; s is suggested by phrase such as” appeal to emotions rather than reason” and “don’t let your emotions take over”. Emotional reactions sometimes produce consequences or thoughts which people may later regret or disagree with; but during an emotional state, they could not control their actions. Thus, it is generally believed that one of the most distinctive facts about human beings is a contradiction between emotion and reason.However, recent empirical studies do not suggest there is a clear distinction between reason and emotion. Indeed, anger or fear can often be thought of as an instinctive response to observed fact. The human mind possesses many possible reactions to the external world. Those reactions can lie on a continuum, with some of them involving the extreme of pure intellectual logic, which is often called “cold”, and others involving the extremes of pure emotion not related to logical agreeme nt, which is called “the heat of passion”. The relation logic and emotion merits careful study. Passion, emotion, or feeling can reinforce an argument, event one based primarily on reason. This is especially true in religion or ideology, which frequently demands an all-or-nothing rejection or acceptance. In such areas of thought, human beings have to adopt a comprehensive view partly backed by empirical argument and partly by feeling and passion. Moreover, several researchers have suggested that typically there is no “pure” decision or thought; that is, no thought is based “purely”” on intellectual logic or “purely” on emotion—most decisions are founded on a mixture of both.1. What results does the speaker may some from emotional reactions?2. What is the popular belief about reason and emotion?3. What does the speaker mean by “cold “?4. According to the passage, what should people do in religious matters?5. What is the speaker’s conclusion?Keys: 1.A 2.B 3.C 4.C 5.DTask 2: DepressionScriptPat: Yo u look depressed. Are you feeling blue? I’ve come to cheer you up.Ted: But there’s nothing that can cheer me up. I’m down in the dumps. Life’s miserablePat: You have to try to get your mind off things.Ted: But I can’t. I just feel there’s too much press ure on me sometimes!Pat: You can’t let things get you down. Learn to relax and stop worrying all the time. What’s your problem?Ted: I failed my last exam, and another exam is coming, I get bored.Pat: If I were you, I’d start working hard. If you work hard for a long time, you’re bound to get better grades. You see, “no pain, no gain”.Ted: It’s easier said than done! If I read for fifteen minutes, I get bored.Pat: You have to learn some self-discipline.But how can I stay cheerful all the time?Ted: Worse than that! If I read for half an hour, I get a headache. Then I start to worry about passing the next exam.Pat: It’s all in your mind. If you stay cheerful like me, everything will soon be OK.Ted: But how can I stay cheerful all the time?Pat: Try to look on the bright side of things.Ted: But what if there isn’t a bright side?Pat: You know the saying: Every cloud has a silver lining. It means there’re always tow sides to everything—both the dark and the bright sides. So, try to identify your strengths and bring then into full play.Ted: Oh, no! Your corny old sayings are making me even more depressed.Keys: TFFTFTask3: AngerScriptAnger is an emotion that can be hard to control. Despite this, we should learn how to manage anger in a constructive manner. In the most intense moments of anger, we usually have two choices: to fight or to run. Some choose the option of violence, which is a negative reaction to anger; and others choose to run. Some may think running means you are a coward. But the option of walking away and claiming down is the more productive method of handling anger. It is difficult to walk away, especially when your heart is racing, and your anger is boiling over.There are constructive ways of handling anger in any situation. First, you have to stop for a brief moment and think before you act. Take that moment and calm down id you feel yourself being pushed.At that moment you should admit you are angry. If you refuse to admit you’re angry or hurt, or if you make it appear that everything is peaches and cream, you are not managing angry in a productive way. You should first admit you are angry and let your feelings out before you blow up. Foe example, you can stay in a quiet place by yourself and shout; or you can talk to a close friend to vent your rage. If you do not acknowledge your anger, it only builds up inside you and will eventually explode like a volcanoThen, in order to manage your angry, you can ask yourself an important question that we all must ask ourselves, “What made me angry?” When you get the answer, and then ask yourself, “Why did that made me angry?” Through such logical reasoning, one tends to calm down and move toward a sensible solution.News ReportU.S. Roller CoasterScriptThe world’s first 4D roller coaster, “X”, took on its first passengers last week at the Six Flags Magic Mountain theme park, just outside Los Angeles.After climbing on board and properly securing their safety harnesses, “X” riders are first to a height of over 66meters. At the top, the passenger train is released and builds up enough speed to race and plummet around the track at speeds of over 130km an hour.The rider takes the daring passengers down an incredible 66m dive and over the top of a 62m loop, in cars that spin independently of the roller coaster train. This unique design allows riders to spin360degree, both forwards and backwards, through the entire ride.Passengers hurtle through this ride often moving in many different directions at the same time ad the cars somersault back and forth and the roller coaster twists, loops, and dives.The complicated series of maneuvers includes two raven turn, one front flip, one twisting front flip, and two back flips.Since passengers aren’t always facing the right direction to see what’s coming up next, the element of surprise is high. For “X” riders, this adds to the thrill of the ride.The track of this newest roller coaster runs a total length of a little over1, 100meters. The passenger trains measure 6meters wide and 21meters long, large enough to carry 28 passengers at a time. At full capacity, the trains can take 1,600passengers for the ride of their lives each hour.The entire ride lasts for only a total about 2minutes, but you can tell from the exhilarated faces of passengers returning to the boarding dock that they were two of the most thrilling minutes of heir lives.Uint2II.

In some cases, implants (S5) inserted through an incision in the (S6) neck bring the vocal cords closer together. Doctors also use injections of (S7) fat or other substances to plump up the cords, so that the voice sounds younger.(S8) The voice lift is becoming more widely known among an aging population, who try to make themselves sound younger.“I speak in a great deal, or I was shouting, on a particular day, at the end of the day, I would feel exhausted,” said Robert Brown, 75, (S9) a retired construction engineer who underwent the voice lift several years ago, “I don’t know if I sound younger, but the hoarseness is gone, which is such a gre at improvement.”(S10) Voice lift can also benefit people like performers, lawyers, teachers, and telephone operators who need to have a strong voice and hope to shave years off the sound of their voice.Task3: A View of HappinessScriptMen are turning to plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures to brighten up their appearances at a faster rate than women, according to a survey released on Wednesday.Men’s use of fat injections to soften deep wrinkles leaped 47 percent last year from theprevious year.

Meanwhile, women’s use of laser resurfacing dropped 38 percent during the same time period.The number of men getting nose jobs rose 47 percent, while the number of women doing so rose 5 percent.Typically, men and women visiting plastic surgeons for cosmetic reasons were age 40 to 59. The study said 44 percent of men and 57 percent of women tell their doctor that looking younger is the reason they are choosing cosmetic surgery.By about 18 percent, men are more likely than women to say they want facial cosmetic surgery for work-related reasons.The study was conducted by written questionnaires from January 20 to March 3 among more than 2,600 members of the association, who focus on treatment of the face, head, and neck. By comparison, in the previous year, women’s use of botox rose 60 percent while men’s fell 14 percent; women’s use of laser resurfacing rose 13 percent while men’s fell 19 percent; women’s us e of fat injections fell17 percent and men’s fell 54 percent.6.

You look really happy.M:My wife voluntarily proposed to invite my best friend to our family party.W:Didn’t your wife like your friend?M:No,at first she found him a terrible nuisance,but she has finally overcome her dislike for him.Q:What does the man mean?6.M:So you have finally decided to end your teaching career,Lucy?W:Yes.It has been driving me crazy.My health doesn’t permit me to cope with such a heavy workload at the moment.That’s why I decided to go to Australia to take a rest.M:Oh.I see.So that’s why you’ve been so quiet recently.Your periods of silence were not your basic nature,but the result of moods.You really need a change.Q:What can we know about the woman?7.M:I heard just last week that Vicky had got married.W:Vicky married? I can’t believe it! Remember how she always said that marriage wasn’t her choice?M:But I also heard that Vicky left her husband,just two days after their marriage.W:What?M:When her husband arose in the morning,Vicky had already gone,without even saying farewell.A porter had carried her trunk to the station and she had taken all early morning train to another city.Q:What can we learn about Vicky from the conversation?8.W:Do you know who that man is?M:Which one?W:The one in casual clothes.M:Oh,that’s David Smith.He’s the one who just moved into the apartment.W:Oh,really?

Although we’ve been in the same office for many years.I’ve never been able to figure him out.silence in which he has unconsciously covered himself, but ...Q: What does the man mean?12.

Being alone there, my thoughts quickly flew this way and that.Q: What does the woman imply?14. W: When my husband's friend Bob visited us, I just left them alone for the most part.M: Why?W: Because he was so different from other people and I couldn't understand him.M: Did he notice your absence?W: No, he didn't.

She was a~ upright and respectable woman. She was also very sensible. It's a pity that the world has lost a great modern dancer.Q: What happened to Mrs. Baroda?18. W: When is your friend going?M: Not for a week yet, dear. I don't understand why you ask my friend to leave our house. Actually he gives you no trouble.W: No. I should like him better if he did; if he were more like the others, I could plan somewhat for his comfort and enjoyment.M: He just came here to take a rest, so please don't make a fuss over him.W: Fuss! Nonsense! How can you say such a thing?Q: What can be concluded from the conversation?19. M: Oh, it's you, Mrs. Johnson. Come in and sit down. Now, what was it? Oh, yes, your leg.

M: You are very nice to me and I've had a delightful time.I really appreciate your inviting me here and spending so much time showing me around.W: Oh, it was fun for me, too.

(D)UNDERSTANDING LONG CONVERSATIONS(Emma, Bill and Tim are talking about friendship.)Emma: How important are friends to you, Bill?Bill: I've never had a lot of friends. I've never regarded them as particularly important. Perhaps that's because I come from a big family -- two brothers and three sisters, and lots of cousins. That's what's really important to me. My family. The different members of my family. If you really need help, you get it from your family, don't you? Well, at least that's what I've always found. What about you, Emma?Emma: To me friendship.., having friends.., people I know I can really count on... to me that's the most important thing in life. It's more important even than love. If you love someone, you can always fall out of love again, and that can lead to a lot of hurt feelings, bitterness, and so on. But a good friend is a friend for life.Bill: And what exactly do you mean by a friend?Emma: Well, I've already said, someone you know you can count on. I suppose what I really mean is... Mm... let's see, how am I going to put this.., it's someone who will help you if youneed help, who'll listen to you when you talk about your problems.., someone you can trust. What do you mean by a friend, Tim?Tim: Someone who likes the same things as you do, whom you can argue with and not lose your temper, even if you don't always agree with him. I mean someone you don't have to talk to all the time but can be silent with, perhaps. That's important, too. You can just sit together and not say very much sometimes. Just relax. I don't like people who talk all the time. Questions 1 to 5 are based on the conversation you have just heard:1. What does Bill think of friends?2. Whom does Bill usually turn to when he runs into difficulties?3. What does friendship mean to Emma?4. According to Emma, what may love lead to?5. What kind of people does Tim like to make friends with?Conversation 2W: You know, it doesn't look like you've cleaned the living room.M: No, I haven't. Ugh. I had the worst day. I am so tired. Look, I promise I'll do it this weekend. W: Listen, I know the feeling. I'm tired, too. But I came home and I did my share of the housework.I mean, that's the agreement, right?M: All right. We agreed. I'll do it in a minute.W: Come on. Don't be that way. You know, I shouldn't have to ask you to do anything. I mean, we both work, we both live in the house, we agreed that housework is...is both of our responsibility. I don't like to have to keep reminding you about it.M: What's the matter with you today? You are displeased.W: It's us.M: What do you mean by "us"?W: Well, we used to talk to each other before we were married. Remember?M: What do you mean? We're talking now, aren't we?W: Oh, yes, but we used to do so much together.M: We still go to the cinema together, don't we?W: Yes, but we used to go out for walks together. Remember?M: Of course, I do.W: And we used to do silly things, like running barefoot through the park...M: Yes. I used to catch terrible colds. Honestly, you are being totally ridiculous.W: But we never argued. You used to think I was wonderful. Once...(sound of the door opening) Where are you going?M: Back to live with my parents. That's something else we never used to do before we were married. Remember?Questions 6 to 10 are based on the conversation you have just heard.6. Where does the conversation most probably take place?7. What is the agreement between the man and the woman?8. What are they doing now?9. How does the man react to the woman's complaints?10. What will the man do?Key:Conversation 1: 1. (C) 2. (A) 3. (B) 4. (A) 5. (D)Conversation 2: 6. (C) 7. (A) 8. (A) 9. (B) 10.

One evening while theywere eating in a restaurant, Peter said to Rhoda: "You know, Rhoda, you're the only girl I really know well. We are both very young, and I think we must try to make new friends and have new experiences. If we still love each other after all that, then we can get married.""That's true, isn't it? But I don't want to stop our relationship, do you? We can see each other, can't we? ""No, Rhoda, not for a while.""I guess you're right, but I'm going to miss you very much."。

So, how can I eat healthily at social events? M:Well, drink a full glass of water before you go. Focus mainly on fresh fruit and vegetables or bread with whole grains. These will help you stay feeling full.Q:What can we know about the woman?Conversation 3W:I heard that in South Africa smoking is banned in all enclosed public spaces.M:Yes, that’s right. But pubs and bars with separate, enclosed smoking rooms are excluded from the ban, and most restaurants provide smoking sections, either indoor areas with good air circulation or outdoor open areas.Q:What can we learn about the smoking rules in South Africa?Conversation 4M:So, your research shows that even when children are not direct targets of violence in the home,they can be harmed by witnessing its occurrence?W:Yes, that’ s right. For example, they can suffer immediate and permanent physical harm.They can also experience short- and long-term emotional and behavioral problems.Q:What are the two speakers talking about?Conversation 5W: Skipping breakfast is common among people who are trying to lose weight, but it doesn ’ t seem to be a successful strategy.M:No, it isn ’ t. While any breakfast may be better than no breakfast, a healthy breakfast can be something simple like a hard-boiled egg, a piece of 100 percent wholegrain toast along with acup of 100 percent fruit juice.Q:What is recommended for a healthy breakfast?Long conversationM: I love working out!W: Ugh! You’ re sweating all over the floor⋯M:I just ran five miles! A friend told me about this great park on Jefferson Street. I love exploring new parks!W: I try running at the gym three days a week, but it ’s so boring looking at the TV monitor or the wall in front of me for an hour.M:You should run outside! Being in nature, enjoying the beautiful flowers and the trees, I feel my mind relax and the stress just falls away.W:It is nice outside. My mom loves t ’ai chi and a nearby t ’ai chi group meets every morning at 6a.m. I’ ve tried going, but it ’ s too early for me to get out of bed⋯M:T’ai chi is really good. You need some kind of exercise. It ’s unhealthy for you to sit in front of your computer all day, every day!W:Well, I recently spend my weekends away from my computer.M: Oh really? And what have you done recently that didn’t involve a computer or TV screen? W: Pandas! I just went to the San Diego Zoo with my sister on Saturday! They have one of the best panda exhibits in the US. The mother panda is from Wolong, China, and had had six baby pandas by 2012 since arriving at the San Diego Zoo in September of 1996.M:Oh, I bet baby pandas are amazing! Hey! Maybe you should get a zoo membership and go jogging in the zoo!W:A zoo membership! Now that ’ s a great idea! I love the San Diego Zoo. It’ s near my house, I can get good exercise and I can watch the baby pandas grow up!Passage 1Have you ever felt you don ’ t have enough hours in the day? Or that you ’ d give anything for a whole day to catch up with yourself? Well, here are some ideas that work for me.First of all, make a to-do list every day and set clear priorities. The trick here isn ’ t making the list; that ’ s the easy part. The trick is making the priorities. I look at my list and put a star next to anything that is really urgent. Then I put the number “ 2” next to anything that will just take a couple of minutes. I actually do these quick tasks before I get on with the urgent ones; it ’ s a bit like clearing off the top of your desk before sitting down to write that important letter. Second, know when is the most productive time of day for you and do your work or studythen. One of the shocking discoveries I made about myself is that if I get up at 5 a.m., I can doa day’ s work and even fit breakfast in before half past nine. Of course, if you are an early bird,it canbe difficult to accomplish tasks that involve phoning “ night owls ”, but that ’s what email ’s for! Finally, do not let your inbox run your life. I just realized recently how frequently Iinterrupted my real work to check my inbox and respond to the most trivial of emails. So, now I only open it when absolutely necessary and this saves me hours. If your work depends on you being constantly accessible by email, then you can ’ t do this; but be honest and ask yourself, “Am I an email addict?”With these simple, practical techniques, you will become more efficient, less stressed andbe able to win some “ me-time ” for yourself.Short conversationsConversation 1W: So this is your last year in college. Have you ever thought about what you ’ d like to do after graduation?M:Well, I really don ’ t know. The job market seems to be improving, so I may look for a job somewhere. But I am also interested in applying for graduate school.Q:What are the two speakers talking about?M: Do you remember Linda we met a while ago at Susan ’ s birthday party?W: Linda? Do you mean the lady who you said was a nurse in the community hospital before her retirement? Yeah, I remember. She looks very young for her age.Q:What does the woman think of Linda?Conversation 3M:I wish I could retire tomorrow. Then I would not need to worry about work.W: I don ’t look forward to retirement. I ’m afraid of getting old – my body will slow down, and my children will be away. I dread losing independence and living in loneliness. Q: What makes the woman afraid of getting old?Conversation 4W: I consider my early 20s to be the prime time of my life. How about you?M:I couldn ’ t agree with you more. That ’ s no doubt the golden period. You are young and energetic. You are free to pursue your passion. The best thing is that you have a wealth of opportunities to explore.Q:What does the man like best about being in his early 20s?Conversation 5W: Hi, John. You are taking Law 201 this semester, right? How do you like it?M:Yeah, it’ s a great class. We’ ve looked at several cases of age discrimination at work. Such cases are very interesting because they are rarely clear-cut and court decisions can be rather controversial.Q: What does the man say about age discrimination cases?Long conversationM: Nancy, time to make a birthday wish!W:I wish ... hmm. OK! I want a high-paying job, a husband with a perfect face and body, and abig house ... with a swimming pool!M:Wow, Nancy! Those are your three wishes?W:Of course! If I have those three things, I ’ ll be happy!M:Now, Nancy. Let me tell you my story, and you may see things differently.W:“ See things differently?” What do you mean, Uncle Charlie?M:Here is what I once experienced in life. When I married, 32 years ago, we had ahappy marriage, a beautiful house, two expensive cars, and $200,000 in the bank!M:What happens if you lose your job, lose your house, and your husband becomes sick? I suggestthese three wishes: patience, courage and love!W:Patience, courage and love?M:Yes! If you have patience and courage, you and your husband will have good jobs and a nice house. And if you have true love, you and your husband will be beautiful to each other no matterhow old you become together.W:This is good.M:Within six years of our marriage, we had three beautiful children, but we lost our jobs, ourhouse, all our money, and then I got really sick for nine years. But we didn’ t lose anythingtruly valuable, because we always said: “ Wherever the five of us are together, we are at home! ” And, little by little things did improve, and I finally got well. Patience, courage and love!These are what make life full, strong and happy!W: Hmm, I will remember. Patience, courage and love! Thanks, Uncle Charlie!Passage 1If you think that you have to live up a remote mountain in order to live a long and healthy life,a religious community in Loma Linda, California, may prove you wrong. Its members are a group of Christians known as the Seventh-day Adventists. The Adventists enjoy a much higher life expectancy than average Californians. Adventist men can expect to live about seven years longer than other Californian men. Adventist women are likely to live around four years longer than otherCalifornian women. The Adventists also act much younger than they are and see doctorsmuch less than ordinary people.So what’ s the secret of the Adventists ’ longevity? It is not all in their genes. Nor is their good health a mere accident. The Adventists live longer partly because they have a vegetable-based diet.Around 35 percent of them are vegetarian, and around one half eat meat only rarely.Tobacco andalcohol consumptions are discouraged. So are rich or spicy foods, meat, and drinks containing caffeine. The Adventist diet is high in fruit and vegetables. It also includes plenty of whole grains, nuts, seeds and beans, and water is the drink of choice.The longevity of the Adventists is also related to their lifestyle and natural environment. They believe in having regular exercise, helping others, and maintaining strong social and familial ties. They live in a mild climate with warm summers and cool winters. Interestingly, the air quality of Loma Linda, however, is not as good as in other longevity hot spots. This should give us all hope, as it suggests that we don ’t have to have every single factor in place in order to achieve excellent health. Despite this, the Adventists ’ good health certainly provides strong evidence that diet andlifestyle choices have a great impact on health and longevity.Short conversationsConversation 1W:I really need a holiday, so I ’ m going camping with some friends. What are you doing over the semester break?M:I haven ’t got any plans yet. I don ’t really have enough money to fly home. I suppose I could get a part-time job and earn some money, or maybe I could start studying for next semester.Q:What is the woman going to do over the semester break?Conversation 2M:I heard that you quit your swimming lessons. But you have paid $120 for them.W: Ah, it ’s all these yoga sessions. I just couldn’t fit them all in. What ’s more, I got the majority of my fees back because I quit immediately after the first day.Q:Why did the woman quit her swimming lessons?Conversation 3M:Shall we spend our weekend in Singapore? We can leave Friday afternoon so as to have dinner next to the river and enjoy fireworks at the shore!W: I ’d rather go on Saturday. My aunt will drop in on Friday evening. We haven’t seen each otherfor a couple of years.Q: Why doesn ’t the woman want to leave on Friday?Conversation 4M: What do I need to bring for our camping trip to the national park?W: Well, we ’ ve bought the food and rented a van. It ’ s a camping vehicle with a fridge and cookingequipment. I think you will need a warm sweater or jacket for the evenings.Q:What does the woman suggest the man bring for the camping trip to the park?Conversation 5M:Have you confirmed your booking at the hotel in Sydney? With only three days left before our trip, I hope everyone is as ready as I am!W:Not yet. But I ’ d better call them before we start our vacation. During this time of year theyalways get quite busy.Q: What will the woman probably do before the vacation?Long conversationM:Rebecca, I just learned of an amazing park right here near our city!W:Really? Is it a nature park or an entertainment park?M:It ’ s a beautiful nature park, located 15 miles from our home.W:Bill, this is perfect! We can have a vacation and still keep saving money to visit myfamily sometime. But, can we get to Big Sky Park without a car?M:Yes, easily. We just take the No. 32 bus that goes right to the park. The only problem willbe getting all of our camping stuff with us on the bus.W:Well, I did just buy that new cart to help carry groceries home on the bus, plus we have your big backpack. Together, I think we will be fine. All of our camping equipment should easily fiton the bus.M:Good. Good! I know we can make it a really special weekend. I have longed for a time when we could walk alone together in the quiet beauty of nature. I ’ m so, so happy to have this chance to be with you at the park.W: I know me too! I know what I ’ ll do! I ’ ll pack all of our favorite food, and I ’ ll bake a small chocolate cake. Your favorite! Then we can drink tea and eat the chocolate cake around a campfire. I ’ m so happy you found Big Sky Park. I can’ t wait, just two more days for the weekend to come!M:I ’ m so happy as well. Big Sky Park will be wonderful. The fire, the dinner and spending time with you make me such a happy, happy man, Rebecca!Passage 1A new museum entirely dedicated to laziness has opened in the capital city of Colombia. But you have to hurry if you want to see the exhibits and find out about being lazy because the exhibition lasts only for one week. The unusual show displays a whole range of things such as sofas, beds and anything that makes you feel like taking a rest. There are also plenty of televisions for those visiting couch potatoes to watch as they move around relaxingly in the museum.It is no coincidence but rather an intentional decision for the museum to have opened rightafter the holiday season. The idea is for people to think about laziness, and perhaps change their behavior and lifestyle throughout the rest of the year. It offers a practical experience to make us think about laziness in our high-speed, fast-paced societies.The museum’ s founder Marcela Arrieta said she wanted people to rethink about laziness and decide whether it really is a bad thing. She told the media that people today always think about laziness as an enemy of work. For example, they may feel guilty if they sleep late, or they may feel they are wasting time after taking a nap or having a holiday.Ms. Arrieta may not be proposing that we should have a shorter working week, but she could have a point in that we do need more leisure time than our jobs allow us, and change our lifestyle to a type that is more relaxing. Besides, according to scientists, avoiding the pressure and stress ofwork can make us healthier and live longer. So, why not try out Ms. Arrieta ’ s advice for yourself, slow down, and think about being lazy?Short conversationsConversation 1M:I think the government could provide some money for homeless people to build theirown homes. Homeless people would find it easier to get jobs if they had an address.W:It ’ s not a bad idea. But I wonder where the money will come from.Q:What does the man think the government could do?Conversation 2W:You see, some colleagues are not as active and efficient as usual and few have madeany progress in their business recently.M:Why don ’ t we organize some social activities, such as a baseball match? Our colleagues can learn to help and cooperate with one another.Q:What does the man suggest to change the situation?Conversation 3W:I need to go across town, but the traffic is so heavy at this time of day.M:When you take the subway, you don ’t have to deal with traffic. I never drive home. Driving at this time may be slower than walking.Q:What does the man suggest the woman do?W: Have you heard? Kate quit her job and went to Africa to work as a volunteer!M:Really? I really admire her courage. I think we should all extend an arm of help, loveand compassion to help poor people become self-reliant financially and psychologically.Q:What does the man think we all should do?Conversation 5W:You know there are many creative ways to reuse items. For example, old shoe boxes can be used for storage and plastic containers can be used for growing plants.M:I never realized that we could be so green. I just learned to recycle glass bottles.Q:What are the two speakers talking about?Long conversationW: Hey, John! Everything OK? You look upset.M: Oh, hi Kate. I was in the cafeteria eating alone. James from accounting walked by, sat downto eat at the table right next to me – didn ’ t say a single word to me. I wondered why. W: Is that the main thing stressing you out, John?M:No, I was silly to feel bad about that. What I am stressed about is my workload. My manager, Steven, is a great guy. He always counts on me to get the work done. But I have five meetingsthis week and two big projects to complete by next Monday. I don ’ t see how I can finish. I ’ m really worried I ’ ll let my team down.W: I have some free time on Friday and over the weekend. I can help you with your extra work if you’ d like. I know that feeling of being overwhelmed with work. It ’ s awful. I’ d like to help. M: Really? You’ d do that for me?W:Of course I will! John, a lot of us really admire your work. Some of us have asked to work on your team. You’re a great example to us, John. You shouldn ’t doubt yourself. I ’m glad to help out.M:Wow, Kate. Thanks!W:We could ... discuss it over dinner on Thursday. My treat!M:Wow. No ... I mean I get to buy dinner, Kate! How about the new restaurant on 6th Street, 365?It ’ s called 365 because it offers local, seasonal foods – fall, winter, spring, and summer –healthy choices with wonderful fresh fruits and vegetables. Let ’ s meet at 7 p.m.W: Sounds wonderful! Thursday, 7 p.m. at the new restaurant 365 on 6th Street. Perfect!Passage 1More than half of working Americans are dissatisfied with their jobs, according to a survey.That’ s bad news for employers because workers ’ discontent can hurt productivity and hinder innovation.Lynn Franco, co-author of the report, says Americans ’ job satisfaction is at its lowest level in more than two decades: Only 45.3 percent of workers say they are satisfied with their jobs compared with 61 percent in 1987.The report was produced by the Conference Board, a non-profit organization that helps businesses strengthen their performance. It is based on a survey of 5,000 US households. It showsa drop in satisfaction in many aspects of an employee ’ s work life, including interest in the job, dealing with co-workers and bosses, commuting and job security. As a group, neither young people who are just entering the workforce nor employees who are about to retire, Franco says, arehappy with what they do.Only about 36 percent of workers under the age of 25 say they are currently satisfied withtheir jobs. And it’ s not much better among baby boomers. Twenty years ago, more than 50 percentof baby boomers were satisfied. Today, that ’ s down to 46 percent.The most satisfied group of workers in the survey was those aged 25 to 34. Franco suggeststhat they may see some opportunities for upward mobility as baby boomers retire.The Conference Board survey also asked about the reasons behind job dissatisfaction. Thereare economic reasons such as wages, promotion policy and bonus policy that are sort ofadding tothis level of dissatisfaction. In addition, workers are also dissatisfied with the benefits: vacation policy, family-related leave time, work schedule flexibility, and a variety of other factors as well.Short conversationsConversation 1W:I’ve read a lot about this young singer in the music press. She ’s certainly creating a stir. Is she really that good?M:She’ s absolutely brilliant. Each of her performances has been a sell-out. Her mix of rap and folk music is unique and awesome.Q:What does the man say about the singer?Conversation 2M:So here we are in Rome, Italy. In the next four days, we are going to have a full schedule.W:I’m so excited. Rome has been my dream city. I can ’t wait to see the historical buildings, visit the art galleries and eat real Italian pizza. By the way, shall we start with the famous CapitolineQ:What are the two speakers mainly talking about?Conversation 3W:Besides modern opera, which you are studying now, are there any other areas of the artsyou enjoy?M:All sorts. I like pop music, and I very much enjoy pencil drawing. But what interests memost is poetry, especially American poetry in the early 20th century.Q:What ’ s the man ’ s area of study?Conversation 4M:Hi. I am calling to inquire about the exhibit of ancient Greek sculptures you are now hosting.W:Sure. Admission is free. The opening hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, 10:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Fridays, and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.Q:How long does the exhibit open on Saturdays?Conversation 5W: Darling, let ’ s check out the reviews of this movie online. If it’ s good, we should watch it. M:I think we should. To watch a silent movie is certainly not something common in modern days. The actors must have superb skills to attract the audience if they do not say anything.Q:What is special about the movie?Long conversationW:This feels like a dream ... The last time I was in San Francisco was 30 years ago, when I was your age, 15 years old. So much has changed in the city – but you know – many of the sites are just the same.M:Wow! San Francisco is as beautiful as a picture! I can ’t believe it! Let ’s get going! Let’s look at the map and take the streetcar to the Golden Gate Bridge.W:Yes, of course. But, wait – let’ s just take a moment to look at the Golden Gate Bridge from here– up high on the hill. See how amazing the sun looks, shining on the bridge there highabove the water? Sometimes the best way to really enjoy something is to see it from different angles and perspectives.M:Yes! Just beautiful from here! OK! Let ’ s get going! Wait! You know what, Aunt Lucy, I ’m really, really hungry! May we eat before we head out to see the Golden Gate Bridge?W:Yes, of course we can. We’re already here in Chinatown and near my favorite Chinese restaurant. Even after 30 years have passed since I last visited, it ’ s still busy and active.M:That ’s great, Aunt Lucy!W:And, it ’ s right here!M: Wow! This is amazing! The man inside the window is making noodles by hand – just by pulling on the flour dough. I ’ ve never seen anything like it before. How?W:Yes, I know. It’ s amazing, right? And the food is delicious, too! Sometimes the best way to enjoy culture is to simply slow down and truly experience it. We have five full days here in San Francisco. Let’ s go slowly and enjoy every moment!Passage 1The Mona Lisa is probably the most famous painting in the world. It was created byLeonardo da Vinci, the famous Italian artist, between around 1503 and 1506. The subject is the wife of a wealthy silk merchant of Italy. The woman ’s husband requested Da Vinci to portray her as a celebration of their home ’ s completion and the birth of their second son. What is it about thispainting that has created such a lasting impact on the artistic world?One factor is the artist himself. Leonardo da Vinci was not only an artist, but also a scientist,an architect and an engineer. His knowledge of the human form came from the study of actual human bodies, so he was able to draw and paint it more accurately.Another factor is the material used for the painting. The Mona Lisa is an oil painting, butunlike other paintings, which are usually created on canvas, the Mona Lisa has a wood panel asthe surface. The use of a wood panel makes it possible for the work to have survived for centuries.Lastly, the style and techniques used for the painting make the Mona Lisa a masterpiece. DaVinci presented precise details in the subject’ s hands and face. He applied a shadowing techniqueat the corners of her lips and her eyes, which gives her an unbelievably lifelike appearance. He also created a background with aerial views and a beautiful landscape. His remarkable skills left behind no visible brush marks at all.All these factors – Da Vinci’ s talent, the medium used for the painting, the style andtechniques applied in the work – contribute to the lasting and mysterious beauty of the Mona Lisa.Short conversationsConversation 1M:There is not much worth in reading the newspapers these days. They have more pagesbut fewer words that really matter.W:You said it! All you find in them are advertisements and celebrity gossip. I wish theycould direct more attention to issues that are more important to society.Q: What does the man think of today ’ s newspapers?Conversation 2W: Hello. Today on Business Focus I am talking about knowledge management with Mr. Adam Johnson, the Human Resources Manager of a multinational company. Mr. Johnson, how has knowledge management changed the way your company works?M:In lots of ways. The most significant change occurs in how we manage the process of our project development ⋯Q:What is the woman probably doing?Conversation 3W:Recently, reality television has swept across almost all channels: matchmaking, job hunting, and talent shows. I don ’ t know why people are so crazy about it!M: In my view, some people watch reality TV because it makes them feel they ’ re better than others. They may also enjoy seeing other people get embarrassed.Q:What does the man say about reality TV?Conversation 4W:I think teenagers today experience a different social reality from what we had before.M:Exactly. When we were kids, we would hang out with friends, chatting, or going to movies. That’ s our experience, but what we see now is that young people are choosing to live online. Q:How do young people socialize today according to the man?Conversation 5W:Much has been said about how anti-social the Internet and mobile phones are, butI think communications technology is bringing people closer.M:Yes, I’d go along with you on that. With these modern tools, there ’ s a new kind ofconnectionbeing built within families.Q: What does the man think of modern communications technology?Long conversationW:Hey Billy! It ’ s 7:30 p.m.! Turn off your TV and computer. Come down to dinner. It seems your father is finishing his conference call with his team in China.M: OK Mom. Coming. But why is Dad on his computer while I can’ t be on mine!W:Billy, your father is working. But you are chatting with your friends about celebrities!So your father needs to be on his computer. And you don ’t!M:OK. Sorry, Mom. What are we having for dinner? Pizza?W:Pizza?! I’ ve made us a nice dinner of roast chicken, mushroom soup and vegetable salad. I even made chocolate cake for dessert – and you want pizza!M: Just kidding Mom! I love your cooking! Mmm I’ m hungry, and it smells delicious!W: Billy! I told you to shut down all electronics!M: Mom! This isn ’ t fair. You told me to turn off my computer and my TV – you didn ’ t say all electronics – and you didn ’ t mention my cell phone! I have to check the news! My favorite golf player just got in trouble for drunk driving! Please Mom! I have to find out!W:You can’t go five minutes without having your eyes on a screen! Hand me your phone. Now! I am turning it off so we can have a nice dinner.M:OK Mom. Fine! Here ’ s my phone.W:Now, where is your father?M:Will you make Dad do the same? We never have family dinner anymore without Dad being on electronics!W: Hmm, you know, Billy, you have a very good point. I think it’s time we had family dinner without any electronics. Here ’ s our new rule: Just for 45 minutes over dinner, no electronics!。

This (S1) owner of the establishment is giving his new hire some instructions on (S2) running the place. He tells the timid man,“If you ever hear that Big John is coming to town, (S3) drop everything and run for the hills! He’s the biggest, nastiest (S4) outlaw who’s ever lived!”A few weeks pass (S5)uneventfully. But one afternoon, a local cowhand comes running through town (S6) yelling,“Big John is coming! Run for your (S7) lives!”When the bartender leaves the bar to start running, he is knocked to the ground by several townspeople rushing out of town. (S8) As he’s picking himself up, he sees a large man, almost seven feet tall. He’s muscular, and is growing as he approaches the bar.He steps up to the door, orders the poor barkeep inside, and demands, “I want a beer NOW!”He strikes his heavy fist on the bar, splitting it in half. (S9) The bartender nervously hands the big man a beer, hands shaking. He takes the beer, bites the top of the bottle off, and downs the beer in one gulp.As the terrified bartender hides behind the bar, the big man gets up to leave,“Do you want another beer?” the bartender asks in a trembling voice. “Dang it, I don’t have time!” the big man yells,(S10) “I got to get out of town! D on’t you hear Big John is coming?”Task3: A View of HappinessScriptDr. Smith has proposed a reasonable, if perhaps somewhat oversimplifies, view of happiness. According to his theory, happiness might be described as a state if balance. And when human or certain animals achieve that balance, they rend to remain in that condition in order to repeat the happy feeling. To illustrate this, we may study two magnets. When their positive and negative poles meet, they are comfortably joined, and they remain there. In other words, they have attained a balance or state of happiness. If on the other hand, one of the poles is reversed, and positive pole is presses against positive pole, there is resistance, instability, imbalance a state of unhappiness.A nimals with some degree of intelligence seem to find happiness in reinforcement. Once they have gained one or more of their goals such as food, and water, they learn to repeat the actions that led to satisfaction of those goals. This repetition orreinforcement produces a state of balance or sense of happiness.According to this theory, only animals with a significant capacity to learn should be able to experience happiness. But in truth learning can take place through surprisingly simple short-term action such as scratching an itch, followed by pleasure, followed by more scratching, and so on. Thus lea r ning can occur with almost no conscious thought.For human beings, blessed with the ability to reason, goals are not limit ed to the short-term satisfaction of needs. Indeed, there is a strong link between happiness and the fulfillment of long-term goals. Even if human strive for goals that are more complex and longer-term than the animals’goals, once those goals are gained, happiness is reinforced.1. Why does the speaker mention “magnets”?2. According to the passage, what may animals do after they have got food?3. Which of the following is true according to the speaker?4. What does the speaker say is special about the goals of human beings?5. Which of the following best captures the main idea of the passage?Keys: 1D 2.C3. B 4.D 5.AIV.

This morning I took my car to the garage to check the air conditioner. They only gave it a quick look, refilled it with some Freon, and charged me 300bucks!Susan: No wonder you’re livid. I’d be mad too if someone ripped me off like that.Chris: Yeah. And they were rude. They said I didn’t know anything about cars, which I don’t, but they didn’t have to be blunt! Susan: Sounds like you got a raw deal!Chris: What’s worse, as I was leaving, I herd then saying, “Don’t trust that guy. He looks broke.”When I heard that, I almost hit the roof. Susan: Don’t let it get to you. Better ignore them.Chris: I agree. I did manage to keep my cool.Susan: Well, the best thing you can do is to file a complaint with the Consumer Protection Agency.Chris: sounds like a good idea.MODEL2 I’m too depressed.ScriptSusan:Chris, I hear you’ve been down in the dumps, so I’ve come to cheer you up.Chris: It’s not gong o work.

You’re on your own.Chris: Come, on. What are friends for?Susan:To keep you in high spirits; not to do your laundry. MODEL3 You seem to be on top of the world.ScriptNora: Oh, hey, John!John: Hey!Nora:You seem to be on top of the world tonight. What’s up?John:I’m so happy I’m about to burst.

I did manage to keep my cool.A: Well, the best thing you can do is to file a complaint with the Consumer Protection Agency. If they talk to the shop, maybe they will give youa refund.B: Sounds too good to be true.V. Let’s TalkScriptHello, everyone. Today I invite you to join me in an exploration off the causes of depression. There ate many factors involved, but I believe some deserve special attention.Heredity certainly plays a role. .The tendency to develop depression may be inherited; there is evidence that this disorder may run in families.Physiology is another factor related to depression. There may be changes or imbalances in chemicals which transmit information in the brain called neurotransmitters. Many mode rn antidepressant drugs attempt to increase levels of certain neurotransmitters so as to increase brain communication. While the causal relationship is unclear; it is known that antidepressant medications do reliever certain symptoms of depression.Researchers also study psychological factors. They include the complex development of one’s personality and how one has learned to cope with external environmental factors, such as stress. It is freeqently observed that low self-esteem and self-defeating thinking are connected with depression. While it is not clear which is the cause and which is the effect, it is known that sufferers who are able to make corrections to their thinking patterns can show improved mood and self-esteem.Another factor causing depression is one’s early experiences. Events such as the death of a parent, the divorce of the parents, neglect, chronic illness, and sever e physical abuse can also increase the likelihood of depression later in life.Some present experiences may also lead to depression. Job loss, financial difficulties, long periods of unemployment, the loss of a spouse or other family member, or other painful events may trigger depression. Long-term stress at home, work, or school can also be involved.It is worth nothing that those living with someone suffering from \depression experience increased anxiety which adds to the possibility of their also becoming depressed.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: Reason and EmotionScriptEmotion is sometimes regarded as the opposite of reason; s is suggested by phrase such as” appeal to emotions rather than reason” and “don’t let your emotions take over”. Emotional reactions sometimes produce consequences or thoughts which people may later regret or disagree with; but during an emotional state, they could not control their actions. Thus, it is generally believed that one of the most distinctive facts about human beings is a contradiction between emotion and reason. However, recent empirical studies do not suggest there is a clear distinction between reason and emotion. Indeed, anger or fear can often be thought of as an instinctive response to observed fact. The human mind possesses many possible reactions to the external world. Those reactions can lie on a continuum, with some of them involving the extreme of pure intellectual logic, which is often called “cold”, and others involving the extremes of pure emotion not related to logical agreement, which is called“the heat of passion”. The relation logic and emotion merits carefulstudy. Passion, emotion, or feeling can reinforce an argument, event one based primarily on reason. This is especially true in religion or ideology, which frequently demands an all-or-nothing rejection or acceptance. In such areas of thought, human beings have to adopt a comprehensive view partly backed by empirical argument and partly by feeling and passion. Moreover, several researchers have suggested that typically there is no “pure” decision or thought; that is, no thought is based“purely”” on intellectual logic or “purely” on emotion—most decisions are founded on a mixture of both.1. What results does the speaker may some from emotional reactions?2. What is the popular belief about reason and emotion?3. What does the speaker mean by “cold“?4. According to the passage, what should people do in religious matters?5. What is the speaker’s conclusion?K eys: 1.A 2.B 3.C 4.C 5.DTask 2: DepressionScriptPat: You look depressed. Are you feeling blue? I’ve come to cheer you up. Ted: But there’s nothing that can cheer me up. I’m down in the dumps. Life’s miserablePat: You have to try to get your mind off things.Ted: But I can’t. I just feel there’s too much pressure on me sometimes! Pat: You can’t let things get you down. Learn to relax and stop worrying all the time. What’s your problem?Ted: I failed my last exam, and another exam is coming, I get bored. Pat: If I were you, I’d start working hard. If you work hard for a long time, you’re bound to get better grades. You see, “no pain, no gain”. Ted: It’s easier said than done! If I read for fifteen minutes, I get bored. Pat: You have to learn some self-discipline.B u t how can I stay cheerful all the time?Ted: Worse than that! If I read for half an hour, I get a headache. ThenI start to worry about passing the next exam.Pat: It’s all in your mind. If you stay cheerful like me, everything will soon be OK.Ted: B u t how can I stay cheerful all the time?Pat: Try to look on the bright side of things.Ted: But what if there isn’t a bright side?Pat: You know the saying: Every cloud has a silver lining. It means there’re always tow sides to everything—both the dark and the bright sides.So, try to identify your strengths and bring then into full play. Ted: Oh, no! Your corny old sayings are making me even more depressed.K eys: TFFTFTask3: AngerScriptAnger is an emotion that can be hard to control. Despite this, we should learn how to manage anger in a constructive manner. In the most intense moments of anger, we usually have two choices: to fight or to run. Some choose the option of violence, which is a negative reaction to anger; and others choose to run. Some may think running means you are a coward. But the option of walking away and claiming down is the more productive method of handling anger. It is difficult to walk away, especially when your heart is racing, and your anger is boiling over.There are constructive ways of handling anger in any situation. First, you have to stop for a brief moment and think before you act. Take that moment and calm down id you feel yourself being pushed.At that moment you should admit you are angry. If you refuse to admit you’re angry or hurt, or if you make it appear that everything is peaches and cream, you are not managing angry in a productive way. You should first admit you are angry and let your feelings out before you blow up. Foe example, you can stay in a quiet place by yourself and shout; or you can talk to a close friend to vent your rage. If you do not acknowledge your anger, it only builds up inside you and will eventuallyexplode like a volcano Then, in order to manage your angry, you can ask yourself an important question that we all must ask ourselves,“What made me angry?”When you get the answer, and then ask yourself, “Why did that made me angry?” Through such logical reasoning, one tends to calm down and move toward a sensible solution.News ReportU.S. Roller CoasterScriptThe world’s first4D roller coaster, “X”, took on its first passengers last week at the Six Flags Magic Mountain theme park, just outside Los Angeles. After climbing on board and properly securing their safety harnesses, “X”riders are first to a height of over 66meters. At the top, the passenger train is released and builds up enough speed to race and plummet around the track at speeds of over 130km an hour.The rider takes the daring passengers down an incredible 66m dive and over the top of a 62m loop, in cars that spin independently of the roller coaster train. This unique design allows riders to spin360degree, both forwards and backwards, through the entire ride.Passengers hurtle through this ride often moving in many different directions at the same time ad the cars somersault back and forth and the roller coaster twists, loop s, and dives.The complicated series of maneuvers includes two raven turn, one front flip, one twisting front flip, and two back flips. Since passengers aren’t always facing the right direction to see what’s coming up next, the element of surprise is high. For “X”riders, this adds to the thrill of the ride.The track of this newest roller coaster runs a total length of a little over1, 100meters. The passenger trains measure 6meters wide and 21meters long, large enough to carry 28 passengers at a time. At full capacity,the trains can take 1,600passengers for the ride of their lives each hour. The entire ride lasts for only a total about 2minutes, but you can tell from the exhilarated faces of passengers returning to the boarding dock that they were two of the most thrilling minutes of heir lives.Uint2II.
