For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you and you say," I wish I could help you but I'm short of cash fight now." In fact, you are not short of cash, but because your friend always forgets to pay you back and you don't want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this a lie?A scientific study of lying shows women are better liars than men, especially when telling a "white lie" that doesn't hurt people. When a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress, she really thinks it looks terrible. However, this is only one side of the story. Other research shows that men are more likely to tell more serious lies. They tend to make promises and then they forget them. This is the kind of lie businessmen are particularly good at. They hope to make more money from these lies in some way.It has been found that when people lie, if they sit down, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. It seems as if they were saying to themselves "I wish I were somewhere else now." It has also been observed that in some cases, liars sweat more than usual.I, Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the questions you hear.1. Why don't you lend your friend money according to the passage? ( C )2. In which way are women better liars than men? ( A )3. Why do businessmen tell lies? ( D )4.

Scientists also have observed that in some cases, liars sweat more than usual.Passage T woA Little Private T reasuryMy wife is good in every way except that she's tight-fisted. Whenever I want to have some pocket money of my own, she would reply: "What do you want money for? For gambling, for dancing or buying presents for somebody?"But to live without money was really hard.

I became generous and manly. I was grateful to the little "private treasury".Again my colleagues had advice: "Why don't you try your luck on lottery tickets?" I listened to them and bought three lottery tickets. My luck wasn't bad at all. I won the first prize: 4,000 yuan in cash. When I was asked by my colleagues what I would do with this money, I said: I’ll hand it over to my wife, for family expenses." Some of them thought this was a good idea, while most shook their heads.That night my wife tossed and turned and got no sleep. The following morning she said to me, "I always thought that men could only get into trouble with spare money. Now I realize I was wrong. Y ou must have had a hard time.

With a medley of Chinese, Indian and Malay influences and a tropical climate, tasty foocl, good shopping and a vibrant nightlife scene, this Garden City makes a great stopover or springboard into to the region.Track l-5-OL4B. Listen again and fill in the chart with information you hear.Track l-5-OL-5A.Now listen to a passage about cities to go to for vacation.Choosing a cityIstanbul is a very unusual city – one part is in Europe, and the other part is in Asia. About 9 million people live there. Visitors love Istanbul because it has many beautiful, old buildings, and the food is great. At night, the seafood restaurants are very popular. And everything in lstanbul is very affordable for visitors. Traffic is a problem in the city, because there are too many cars for the old streets. There are also subways, trains, and buses, and some people take ats to go between the European side and the Asian side. The weather is very good in summer, but in winter it’s somttimes very cold.Vancouver is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It’s near the mountains and the sea, and there are many great parkks where you can walk, ride a bicycle, or just relax. The city has good public transportation, with buses and fast trains that go everywhere. There are about 600,000 people in Vancouver, but it’s a very clean city, and there’s not much pollution. Two bad points – prices there are very high, and the weather is not veryjgood. Vancouver is famous for rain! But there are many good museums for those rainy days, and in the evening, the city MS great restaurant nightclubs to visit.Track l-5-OL-6B. Listen again. Complete the chart with information about the cities.Vrack l-5-OL-7A. Now listen to a talk aalk about The Best Cites to LiVe in. Read the sentences. Which city does each sentence describe? Someomes both cities are possible.Two magazines recently listed the best cities to live in. Here are two of the cities listed as “the world’s best.”San Jose, Costa Rica. When people think of Costa Rica, they imagine rain forests, rivers, and beautiful beaches. These things are not in San Jose. But this city is still one of the world’s best. Why? Unlike other cities in Central and South America, San Jose has comfortable weather all year (15 C/60 F to 26 C / 79 F). Housing is affordable in San Jose. Also, many of the city’s older neighborhoods are very beautiful and have small hotels, art galleries and cafes. Beautiful volcanoes and mountains surround the city. You can visit them easily from San Jose. Minuses: There’s good public transportation, but traffic and air pollution are a problem in the city center.Hong Kong, China. Why Iive in Hong Kong? Here are two good reasons. The city: This lively city – once a small fishing village – is today an international business center. It is an interesting mix of East and West, old and new. Modern skyscrapers are next to small temples. Popular nightclubs are close to traditional teahouses. Busy crowds fill the streets at all hours of the day. But outside the city, there are parks for walking or relaxing. The food: Hong Kong is famous for its wonderful native dishes (try the dim sum). There’s also food from Europe, North America, and other parts of Asia. Uses: This small city has a large population. How many people live in Hong Kong? Almost seven million! That’s why housing is often very expensive. Traffc and air pollution are also a problem.Track l_5_OL-8B. Listen again. Do you want to Iive in Hong Kong or San Jose? Why or why not?

Directions: Listen to the passage TWICE and fill the blanks with themissing words.(10 points)This is about the time that people turn away from a war. At first, yellow 51 are everywhere, and flags, and signs in peoples' windows that say "We Support Our Troops." But the new American 52 span is brief, in the best of times: we lose interest quickly. The news from 53 is never good news--good news doesn't sell many newspapers. And so, since we don't like to hear bad news about something from which there seems no ready 54 , we begin to ignore the war altogether. Andwith it, the young people we have sent to fight it.Meanwhile, people's tours are 55 and people come home wounded. Some come home dead. Other people go over to 56 them. Our Web guy gets the names of people who have died off the Internet once a week, my friend Jim says, and we pray for them every Sunday. This is 57 . It is also unusual. Probably none of the soldiers for whom we are praying are members of our organization. Butthey are all children of God.There is another prayer of which we are 58 in need, a prayer that many of us, perhaps, have yet to begin. In any war, we need to pray for our 59 . We need to pray for those who hate us. One day, we will live together as friends without any 60 . We need to begin seeing the enemy as a human being now, before that day comes, because it will never come if we cannot.51.参考答案:ribbons答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 1 / 1正确率: 50%52.参考答案:attention答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 1 / 1正确率: 50%53.参考答案:Iraq答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 0 / 2 正确率: 0%54.参考答案:release 答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 0 / 2 正确率: 0%55.参考答案:extended 答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 1 / 1正确率: 50%56.参考答案:replace 答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 1 / 1正确率: 50%57.参考答案:wonderful答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 1 / 1正确率: 50%58.参考答案:equally答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 1 / 1正确率: 50%59.参考答案:adversary答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 0 / 2正确率: 0%60.参考答案:hostility答题人数:2正确/ 错误: 1 / 1正确率: 50%Like a bolt of lightning out of a darkening sky, war burst upon the American 61 in the spring of 1861, climaxing decades of bitter 62 and pitting two vast sections of a young and vigorous nation against each other. Northerners called it the War of the 63 , Southerners named the War Between theStates. We know it simply as the Civil War.In the East, beginning in the spring of 1861, the cry from Union 64 was "On to Richmond!"For the next four years a succession of Northern commanders struggled 65 to do just that get toRichmond. One 66 effort in 1862 used the naval might of the Union to reach the vicinity of the Confederate capital by water routes. The other attempts 67 slogged across a narrow central Virginia corridor and sought to disperse tenacious Southern defenders who seemed always to be 68 with the path. Confederate successes offered occasional opportunities to take the war north into Maryland and Pennsylvania and to 69 Washington. Both sides came to see the enemy army as the proper goal, and both recognized the obligation of the enemy army to defend its respective capital city against military threats. The 70 was four years of war fought to the death mostly in a relatively small strip of Virginiacountryside between Washington and Richmond.61.参考答案:landscape答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%62.参考答案:wrangling答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%63.参考答案:Rebellion答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%64.参考答案:headquarters答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%65.参考答案:desperately答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%66.参考答案:well-designed 答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%67.参考答案:stubbornly答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%68.参考答案:unfamiliar答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%69.参考答案:threaten答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%70.参考答案:consequence答题人数:1正确/ 错误: 0 / 1正确率: 0%VI.

Unit 10Listening skills: Identifying main eventsIf you are afraid of flying, there are specialists who can teach you how to deal with your fear and finally get rid of it.They will find out if a nearby airport has special training programs for people who are afraid to fly. Many airports do. How would such a program work?First, a specialist will take your group to the airport to watch the planes take off and land. A representative from one of the airlines will explain how an airplane flies. Then your group will sit in an airplane that stays on the ground. At a later time, you will go up in a plane for a short flight and then land. Gradually the time you spend in the air will increase. When you are prepared for it, the group will take a trip to another city.Listening in > Task 1Tony:Hey, Mary. Some of us in the Outdoor Club are going camping this weekend. You interested?Mary:Gee, I don't know... where are you planning to go?Tony:Up into the mountains. We want to take advantage of the nice weather while it lasts.Mary:The mountains... you mean climbing them?Tony:Sure, many places have interesting mountains, but the ones here are the most beautiful I have seen—and only a few hours' drive from here.Mary:If I were to go, I wouldn't appreciate the view. I'd have my eyes shut tight all the time. I'm scared stiff of heights.Tony:You'll be missing out on a lot of wonderful views.Mary:Oh, Tony, I really prefer to stay at the foot of the mountain.Tony:That's OK, Mary. Come anyway. You can skip the climbing—just stay in the camp and cook and clean up for us.Mary:That doesn't sound like much fun. Maybe I should try to overcome my fear of heights.Listening in > Task 2Steven went to a psychiatrist. "Doctor," he said, "I've got trouble. Every time I get into bed, I think there's somebody under it. I get under the bed; then I think there's somebody on top of it. Top, under, top, under. You've got to help me! I'm going crazy!""Just put yourself in my hands for two years," said the psychiatrist. "Come to me three times a week, and I'll cure your fears.""How much do you charge?""One hundred dollars a visit.""I'll think about it," said Steven.Six months later the doctor met Steven on the street. "Why didn't you ever come to see me again?" asked the psychiatrist."For one hundred bucks a visit? A carpenter cured me for 10 dollars.""Is that so? How?""He told me to cut the legs off the bed!"Listening in > Task 3Hi, my name's Matthew. Today, I want to talk about my love of water. I had a fear of water when I was young. That fear kept me away from water. That was because once I was pushed into the swimming pool by a classmate when I was eight and first arrived in Australia from Vietnam. That experience was horrible. I was down at the deep end, struggling, and I thought I was going to drown. The next thing that happened was my English teacher, fully clothed, jumped in and rescued me. Until that point, I'd never really wanted to learn or speak English. Then I changed. I found it to be an amazing experience. Now my fear of water is also gone. Can you believe that? I love water and I'm interested in English as well. I'm a bit more, let's say, confident when I speak English too. I'm no longer worried about my English being broken. I don't care if people laugh at me either. I just find it fun to speak English. And I don't feel ashamed of myself when other people correct the mistakes in my English. Actually, I like them to do that.Speaking out > Model 1Speaking out > Model 2Speaking out > Model 3Let's talk > Task 1I'm Helen. Well, it happened a few years ago. I was living in a house with my parents. One evening I had to prepare for a school examination. I was working in the basement at my table when my parents went to the city to go shopping. Suddenly, I heard steps on the floor above me. I knew there was actually nobody in the house besides me. What could I do? I was terribly frightened because I knew that it must be a burglar. We had the windows open to air the room, so he must have come through one.I remembered that I had a toy gun in my cupboard, so I decided to take it and go upstairs. While walking up the stairs, I shouted, "George, take the dog and go outside!" I wanted the burglar to think there was another person with me. The burglar must have heard me because he rushed out of the window the way he came in.Well, I was relieved, and then I tried to phone my parents, but I was so terribly frightened that I just wasn't able to dial the number.Let's talk > Task 2Further listening and speaking > Further listening > Task 1Dave:Sue, I haven't seen you for a while. Where have you been hiding?Sue:I have some excellent news, Dave. I won first prize in a computer software competition.Dave:That's wonderful news. What's the prize?Sue:I've won a trip to Sydney.Dave:Wow! That's great—but how will you get there?Sue:Fly, of course. It's much too far to swim.Dave:I hate flying. With just the thought of not having my feet safe on the ground, three things happen: my stomach turns, my face goes pale and I break intoa cold sweat.Sue:But if you want to travel, you have to fly.Dave:That's true. But if I were to fly, I'd have to get some medicines first. Sue:That must cause you a lot of trouble.Dave:Well, I have no other choice.Further listening and speaking > Further listening > Task 2While fishing off the Florida coast, a tourist overturned his boat by accident. He could swim, but he was afraid of alligators. So he just held tight on to the overturned boat. After a while he saw a coast guard officer walking close to the shore, and he got excited. He shouted at the officer, "Are there any alligators around here?""No," the man shouted back, "they haven't been around for years!"Feeling greatly relieved, the tourist started swimming lazily toward the shore.About halfway there he asked the coast guard, just out of curiosity, "How did you get rid of the alligators?""We didn't do anything," the officer answered."Wow, I'm really lucky." said the tourist.The officer then added, "The sharks got them."Further listening and speaking > Further listening > Task 3At a recent software engineering management course in theUnited States, the participants were given an awkwardquestion to answer: "If you boarded an airliner anddiscovered that your team of programmers was responsiblefor the flight control software, would you get off?

As the match (2) proceeded, it became clear that Seles’s most formidable (3) opponent was not Garrison but herself.“The match was so close,” said a crestfallen Seles afterward. “I was going for the (4)safe shots. Even on Zina’s second serve I was (5)scared to hit the ball for winners.”When things get (6) tough, conventional wisdom tell us to (7) play it safe, to pull in your horns. Consequently, rather than performing to (8) our potential, we concentrate on minimizing our losers. The results can be (9) catastrophic.If you find yourself shying away from (10) risks, these five tips will help you (10) tap into the adventurous spirit buried in us all.1. Take (11) dreams seriously.2. Take it in little steps . When starting something new, (12) figure out a first step and make it one you are reasonably sure of (13) accomplishing.3. Don’t say “don’t”, The Don’ts, a form of (14) negative goal setting, can be self-fulfilling because your mind (15) responds to pictures.4. Make your own (16) rules.5. Learn from your mistakes.By (17)embracing risk, you will accomplish more than you (18)ever thought you could. In the process you will (19) transform your life into an exciting adventure that will constantly challenge, reward and (20) rejuvenate you.Part 2 listening for GistIt'll be a dull day, with outbreaks of rain.

The key words are rain, showers, thunderstorm, outlook, and maximum temperature.Section Two Listening ComprehensionPart 1 DialogueAdulthoodInterviewer: OK, Bruce, Ur, why is the late twenties better than, say, earlier twenties? Bruce: Ur, I think that when you’re in your, in the early twenties, you’re just getting over, um, teenage adolescent years, so now I think in the late twenties you kinda know a direction but, um, the early twenties are just too… you just kinda remember too many things of the teenage years and you're still trying to get a plan. But in the twenties, late twenties, you kind of know what you wanna do and you kind of have an idea of, of how to get it. And you know how to settle down, too. You can see a plan for getting things and also settling down.Interviewer: Hmm, um, is there a time in your life that you think you would call the most difficult time?Bruce: Probably the teenage years, like fourteen, fifteen ...Interviewer: Yeah?Bruce: Sixteen.Interviewer: The mid teens.Bruce: Yeah, I think the mid teens were the worst.Interviewer: So, Julie, why would you like to be a little girl again?Julie: Um, I think, uh, I think lately because the age I'm at now, I feel, is kind of a stressful age.Interviewer: Huh.Julie: When you're, when you're younger, you don't have as many worries and responsibilities.Interviewer: Yeah.Julie: You don't have all the stresses of life as an adult. I think at the age I'm at now, when you get out of college and you need to find a job...Interviewer: Uh-huh.Julie: And I'm single and I can't depend on my parents anymore...Interviewer: Uh-huh.Julie: And I have new responsibilities - just trying to get used to having new responsibilities and also figure out what I wanna do - there's lots of decisions. Interviewer: Uh-huh.Julie: I don't always know what the best thing to do is. Um, those are things that I need to learn.Interviewer: Yeah.Julie: Yeah.Interviewer: So, Ann, why was being in your thirties good?Ann: Because in your thirties you pretty much know what you like and what you don't like，and you're kind of settled into life. And, at least for me, that was a really good time. Actually, now that my sons are married and, and they're independent... Interviewer: Uh-huh.Ann: When I come to, come to think about it, I probably do more interesting things now for myself than I did when I was in my thirties ...Interviewer: Huh! For example...Ann: Well, now I'm playing in an orchestra, which I would never've had time to do when the boys were little and, urn, and I, ur, read a lot more than I did. Interviewer: Do you and your husband go out more?Ann: Ha! We do! We do. We go out to movies, and we go out to dinner, and we hope to be able to travel!Directions: Listen to the dialogue and decide whether the followingstatements are true (T) or false (F).l. T 2. T 3. T 4. T 5. T 6. F 7. T 8.TPart 2 PassageSocial SecurityThe Social Security system in the US is a major source of retirement income for many. Thus Social Security is a logical place to start answering the question: Can we afford to continue this trend of retiring ever earlier and living longer?The Social Security Administration projected income and expense for the Social Security fund from 2000 to 2050. The figures for both income-tax revenues and benefits paid out are sobering*. It highlights the coming deficits in a system on which so many Americans depend for at least a part of their livelihood during retirement.The gap between revenue and expense arises because of demographic shifts. The aging of the Baby Boomers and life-extending medical advances combine to create an imbalance in the Social Security system as designed.The system was established in 1935 and was intended as an insurance policy against a poverty-ridden old age, a not uncommon fate for the elderly during the first decades of the 20th century.The Social Security system has been expanded many times since its inception*. It now covers workers, disabled persons, and the dependents of each. The system also adjusts benefits for inflation annually.In the 1930s, life expectancy in the US was 59.7 years; many people never reached the age of retirement. In 2001, life expectancy was 77.6 years; most people today live for quite a while on Golden Pond*. We're living longer and drawing from the Social Security fund for more years with each passing generation. The declining age of retirement only exacerbates* this trend.In simple terms, if the number of those paying into the fund drops as the number of those drawing from it rises, an imbalance is sure to develop in the future.Barring any restructuring of the system beforehand, Social Security expenses will exceed revenues in the year 2015. At that point the system will begin to use reserves to meet its obligations. According to the Social Security Administration estimates, these reserves will carry the system through the mid-2030s. At that point, if not sooner, one of two things will need to be done: (1) The Social Security tax rate willneed to be increased, or (2) Benefits paid out wij1 need to be reduced. The second solution may involve extending the retirement age to 70 or an even older age. Since none of these options is politically palatable (the elderly have the highest voting rate), it remains to be seen which will be implemented - most likely some combination of the two.Since 3 out of every 10 Americans aged 65 or older depend on Social Security payments for 90% or more of their income (and 3 out of 5 depend on Social Security for 50% or more of their income) we must ask an important question: Are those of us now in our 30s and 40s planning on an alternative or supplemental retirement income?A: Pre-listening QuestionActually, it is a government scheme that provides economic assistance to those people faced with sickness, unemployment, maternity and retirement, etc. In this case, the cost is paid entirely out of taxation. If the cost is met wholly or partly from contributions paid by employers to the state, the scheme is usually called national insurance.B: Sentence DictationDirections: Listen to some sentences and write them down. You will hear each sentence three times.1. Social Security is a logical place to start answering the question: Can we afford to continue this trend of retiring ever earlier and living longer?2. It highlights the coming deficits in a system on which so many Americans depend for at least a part of their livelihood during retirement.3. The Social Security system now covers workers, disabled persons, and the dependents of each, and the system also adjusts benefits for inflation annually.4.

(Open)Section Three NewsNews Item 1For development organizations, the meetings are a time to discuss some of the unfinished business of the G-20. Last month in London, its leaders pledged $1 trillion to the IMF for loans and other assistance to help cushion the developing world from the effects of the global financial crisisBut some questions remain. Activists say, for example, that the G-20 promised $100 billion for multi-lateral institutions like the African and Asian Development Banks, but did not specify where the money would come from.They also want clarification on how proposals made by the G-20 would work. One is the issuing of $250 billion worth of the IMF reserve currency, called Special Drawing Rights, or SDRs, to nations needing funding against the effects of the global financial downturn. It is estimated that nearly $19 billion would go to low income countries under the plan and $60 billion to middle income countries like Mexico and Brazil.SDRs, which are worth about $1.50 can be exchanged for the leading currencies, including the dollar, the euro and the yen.The IMF would distribute SDRs to states according to the size of their voting shares within the institution.This news item is about the G-20’s financing aid for developing countries and activists’ doubt.B: Directions: Listen to the news again and complete the following passage.Activists say that the G-20promised $100 billion for institutions like the African and Asian Development Banks, but did not specify where the money would come from.Also they want to know how proposals made by the G-20 would work.

TSection Four Supplementary ExercisesPart 1 Feature ReportGlobal Economic Upturn Seen as 2010 Approaches 2009 began with a sinking global economy paralyzed by a worldwide credit crunch, stung by a cascading failure of banks and financial institutions, and undermined by panic and pessimism on the part of consumers and investors from Wall Street to Tokyo. Central banks and governments fought back with massive cash injections, financial rescue packages and stimulus programs, but success in containing the crisis was far from assured.The global economy is expected to show a 1.1 percent drop in output for 2009, following a five percent expansion in 2007 and three percent growth in 2008.The past year has seen sharp spikes in unemployment, which peaked at 10.2 percent in the United States, 9.8 percent in Europe, 9 percent in Brazil and 5.7 percent in Japan.But a turnaround is underway, according to U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner“The U.S. economy and the world economy a re now growing again. Businesses are starting to invest again, consumers are now spending, business and consumer confidence has improved, global trade is now expanding at an encouraging pace."But analysts warn that perils remain, and badly needed financial reforms in the United States and elsewhere have yet to be implementedPolicymakers must also decide when to wind down unprecedented levels of government stimulus and financial support. Those measures were deemed necessary in the face of an economic crisis, but can spark inflation if sustained for too long.The global economic downturn struck advanced industrialized nations particularly hard, providing an opening for rising economic powers like India and China to shine on the world stage.For many nations, the passing of the financial crisis means attention must be refocused on long-term problems that preceded the global recession. In the United States, massive government debt continues to grow at a time when an aging population is placing ever-greater demands on social welfare programs.In much of the developing world, such as in Kenya, other challenges must be tackled.Unlike in past economic rebounds, the United States is not in a position to drive global growth.Analysts say global economic growth will likely be powered by rapid expansion in countries like China and India, with contributions also coming from lesser developed nations.A: Directions: Listen to the news item and complete the summary.This news item is about the global economic upturn after the financial crisis.B: Directions: Listen to the dialogue and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).

His landmark book on evolution, On the Origin of Species, was published 150 years ago, and it's still considered perhaps the most important science book ever.In his book, Darwin described the idea of natural selection - species change and evolve, and organisms with characteristics more suitable to survival are more likely to reproduce. His ideas upended a 19th century world where most people believed that plants and animals always had their present form, and always would.His theory of evolution, as it's sometimes called, itself evolved over more than two decades, beginning with a five-year sea voyage aboard a British survey ship called the Beagle, where he served as naturalist, collecting specimens and observing exotic plants and animals.To get a larger picture of Charles Darwin the man and scientist, we're joined by an anthropologist who has written about Darwin and natural selection. We reached Mr. Milner at his home in New York.Charles Darwin was the son of two generations of English country physicians. He was born a naturalist, he said. When he was a little kid he loved poking under rocks, looking for fossils and bird's nests, making collections. His father shipped him off to medical school when he was 16 to be a doctor, like the rest of his family. But he couldn't stand the sight of blood.So then his father said, why don't you be a clergyman? So he was studying at Cambridge to be a churchman. But he could not get rid of this love he had for nature and trying to understand the birds and the beasts. And so when an offer came through one of his professors to be the ship's naturalist on a surveying ship, H.M.S. Beagle, that was going to do a five-year voyage around the world, he got permission to go, and he said, that was the start of my real life, that was the start of my real education.“So he sailed on the Beagle, which skirted around the coast of South America among other places in its journey over five years starting in 1831, and was there someplace along the line a "eureka moment" for Charles Darwin?”“Yeah, he had a eureka moment, but it had nothing to do with evolution.”“What was it that he saw during his voyage on the Beagle that firmed up for him the concept of natural selection?”“Well, Darwin, first of all, he was a collector on that ship. He collected thousands of specimens of rocks, fossils, insects, and birds. And he started to see patterns. He began to get the idea that all of life is related, and this is probably even more important than the idea of natural selection. The great tree of life. Darwin saw that we're all netted together, all living things are our cousins, and that's the foundation of evolutionary biology with or without natural selection.“Well, it's a pretty radical concept.”A: pre-listeningCharles Darwin (12 February 1809-19 April 1882) was an English naturalist who established that all species of life have descended over time from common ancestors, and proposed the scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a process that he called natural selection. He published his theory with compelling evidence for evolution in his 1859 book on the origin of species. The scientific community and much of the general public came to accept evolution as a fact in his lifetime, but it was not until the emergence of the modern evolutionary synthesis from the 1930s to the 1950s that a broad consensus developed that natural selection was the basic mechanism of evolution. In modified form, Darwin’s scientific discovery is the unifying theory of the life sciences, explaining the diversity of life. B: sentence Dictation1. His ideas upended a 19th century world where most people believed that plants and animals always had their present form, and always would.2.

It’s crazy and it’s bad for the environment.Trish: How long have you been living here? Don’t you know that’s the way it is? Steve: I just want them to stick ‘emin a napkin for me, so I can eat while I’m walking to class.Trish: There you go again. Don’t you know it’s rude to eat while you walk? Steve: I’m so tired of this place. I don’t have time to sit down and eat. Peoplehere are too inflexible, and they have too many rules.Trish: Yeah, right, Steve, so you’re gonna convert everybody here to your way of doing things?Steve: Yeah, there has to be more individual freedom to do whatever you want.Trish: Why don’t you just relax and go with the flow?Steve: Go with the flow? The whole system is a waste of my time. The clerks here should learn how to be more efficient, like in the U.S.Trish: What are you talking about? When I was in the U.S., the clerks were really rude. They just ignore you, and seem offended if you want anything. Don’t you think it’sbetter this way?Steve: Are you kidding?Trish: Well, I kind of like it. It’s nice to relax and enjoy the moment while your packages are being wrapped. I like all of the traditions, and the care and attention that people give you, and the manners. To me, it’s a wonderful place to live.Steve: I think you’re nuts.Trish: You’re not gonna last long, mate.Unit 6 Identity “What’s your number?”Int: So, Ms. Spencer, why did you apply for this job at CNN?Amy: Well, I’ve always wanted to be a journalist, and I like traveling.

What about my notebook computer?Kevin: No, no computers, and there’s only one telephone on the whole island. Cathy: What? So I won’t be able to check my e-mail either?Kevin: You’ll get by. It’ll be fun! Look, you can read, and talk, and think. And every morning you go for a long hike.Cathy: Ahh. Sounds like work.Kevin: I think it would be relaxing. I’d like to get away from the phone for a week. And I think it’d be good for you.Cathy: So you’re telling me there’s no TV, no computers, and I have to wake up every morning to go hiking. Why on earth would anybody want to go there?Unit 10 Style “It means a lot to me.”Jean: I’m ready, are you? Why don’t you take that necklace off before you go in the pool?Chandra: Oh, this? No, I never take it off. I wear it all the time. I’ve had it since I was a kid.Jean: Really? You’re worn it since you were little? Why?Chandra: Well, when I was a baby, I lived in India. And I was sick all the time, so my parents took me to a doctor. And, well, the doctor at first did n’t want to treat me because —Jean: What: Why?Chandra: Well, because I was a girl.Jean: Huh? Because you were a girl?Chandra: Yeah, well, that’s the way it was. Anyway, so my parents took me to this witch doctor, and I —Jean: A witch doctor?Chandra: Yeah, well, I guess you could call her a —I don’t know, a spiritual healer. She was an old woman in our village. And she took a look at me and she said I needed silver.Jean: Silver?Chandra: Yeah. She said I needed silver so that I could get better. And then my grandmother went to a jeweler and she had this silver necklace made for me. They put it on me, and I got better.Jean: I don’t believe that.Chandra: Well, I didn’t either for a while. But you know what? When I was 20 I took it off and I put it in a drawer for a little while. And then, I started to get sick again. And I didn’t get better. I was just sick all the time. And then I remembered the necklace, and I put it on. And after that, I was fine.Jean: Wow.Unit 11 Travel “They lost my luggage!”Angela: I’m thinking about going to Costa Rica —Trevor: Great. I went to Costa Rica once —but I had a terrible time getting there —Angela: Oh, yeah? What happened?Trevor: Well, when I got to the airport, I realized I didn’t have my passport —Angela: Oh no.Trevor: So I called a friend —and he broke into my house —Got my passport and brought it to me.

See the sand, the trees and the water. Feel the soft sand below you. Let your feet sink into the sand. Look at the gentle waves in the water. The waves are coming in ——and going out. You’re breathing slowly and calmly, like the waves ——Feel the warm sun on your skin. Oh, you feel good. You’re relaxed. You’re well and happy. Now, see yourself slowly leaving the beach.

Study the following before listening.amusement n. 娱乐，消遣，娱乐活动diary n. 日记professional adj. 专业的，职业的Ⅱ. Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to the following questions you hear.People in the past would rather make their own amusements. Many ladies kept diaries and gentlemen went riding or shooting. At that time conversation was an art: amusing conversation could keep people happy for hours. They did not play the game well themselves, but they managed to amuse themselves. Nowadays, we are amused by professional performances. Do you still listen to your friends singing when you can hear the great singers of the world on the radio? Do you read a story if you can see one at the cinema? And do you play football with players who are not very good when you can watch TV for the best players or an important match? People are becoming more and more lookers and listeners, and less and less doers and talkers. In fact, it is bester to do something not very well oneself than always to sit and watch others doing it.Questions:1.How did gentlemen amuse themselves in the past? (C)2.Why conversation was treated as an art in the past? (C)3.What kind of professional performance of the present day is NOT mentioned in the passage? (B)4.What are the characteristics of people’s amusements nowadays? (A)5.What is the speaker’s suggestion? (D)Part Five Spot DictationDirections: Listen to the following passage twice, and fill in the blanks with missing words.With the development of car industry, (1) traffic accidents have become as familiar as the common cold, yet their cause and control (2) remains a serious problem that is difficult to solve. Experts have long (3) recognized that this discouraging problem has clear causes. At the very least, it is a problem that involves three factors: the driver, the road condition and the (4) vehicle. If all drivers made good (5) judgments at all times, there would be fewer accidents. But this is rather like saying that if all people were honest, there would be no crime. (6) Improved design has helped to make (7) highways much safer. But the tide of accidents continues to rise because of human failure and increase in the number of vehicles on the road. (8) Attention is now turning (9) increasingly to the third factor of the accident, the car itself. Since people (10) assume that accidents are bound to occur, they want to know how cars can be built better to protect the drivers.Part Six Fun TimeI. Study the following before listening.ugly adj. 丑陋的，难看的angrily adv. 愤怒地fare n. 车费insult v. 侮辱，凌辱sense v. 感觉，了解sympathize v. 同情，共鸣II．Listen to the story and put the following sentences in the right order.A woman got on a bus holding a baby. The bus driver said: “That’s the ugliest baby I’ve ever seen.”Angrily, the woman put her fare into the fare box and took a seat. The man seated next to her sensed that she was not in the mood and asked her what was wrong. “The bus driver insulted me,” she said. The man sympathized and said “Why, he shouldn’t say things to insult passengers.”“Y ou’re right,” she said, “I think I’ll go back up there and give him a piece of my mind.”“That’s a good idea,” the man said, “here, let me hold your monkey.”1.The bus driver viewed the ugliest baby in the bus2.The woman put her fare into the fare box.3.The man beside thought of the woman’s baby as a monkey.4.The woman intended to talk with the driver to show her mind.5.The man showed his sympathy to the woman.Right order: 1 , 2 , 5 , 4 , 3Unit 10 Cause and Effect (11)Part One Warming-up ActivityDirections: Listen to the following proverbs and sayings, and then put them into Chinese.1.A man cannot spin and reel at the same time.一心不能二用。

1Shopping and Banking OnlinePart I Getting readyB. Spot dictation. Fill in the banks with the words you hear.Tapescript:We have just two more days to “shop till you drop” till Christmas, and that typically means a lot of last minute shopping. And though buying with a mouse is still tiny compared to shopping with your feet online retailing is more popular than ever.Christmas shopping in the street is great sometimes. But when you’ve just got to get a bunch of shopping done and you want to have something to send to a third-party location, it’s much better online.In the U.S., online shopping is predicted to be 30% ahead of last December, while mails can expect less than a 6% increase in sales. In Britain, Europe’s biggest e-tailing market, online gift-buying is expected to grow by 50%, with $8 billion worth of goods sold through the net in the November to January period.C. Listen to a news report. Supply the missing information.Part ⅡA. Main problems of online shopping●Long time waiting for delivery or even no delivery (about 8%) after ordering●No clear information about delivery charges● A danger that customers’ personal information would be sold to a third party (as manyas 87% of the sites)●No policy on returning goods (about 47% of the companies)●No confirmation of the order (about 35% of the sites ) and the dispatch (as many as87% of the sites)●No money back more than four months after returning goods (in two cases)B Now listen again. Complete the summary.Summary:The survey shows in spite of the convenience and choice offered by Net shopping there are still many obstacles that prevent consumers from shopping with complete trust. One of the biggest problems is to build consumers’ trust in buying online. It takes time for the Internet to become mature as a retail channel when it gives support to trust relationships with guarantees of payment and service.Part ⅢBanking at homeA. Outline1.

Reasons for creating online servicesA. competing for customersB. talking advantage of modern technology4. Inappropriateness of online banking for some peopleA. having no computers at home.B. preferring to handle accounts the traditional wayB. Now try this: listen to a more authentic version of the material. Then answer the questions.1. What is “interactive banking”It is banking through the Internet.2. Why can “online banking” compete of customers“Online banking”offers convenience which appeals to the kind of customer banks want to keep.3. What kind of customers do banks want to keepBanks most want to keep people who are young, well-educated, and have good incomes.Part ⅣB. Now listen to an interview discussing English and American good customer services.Part ⅤTapescript:“Everybody loves a bargain,”this is a common American saying. A bargain is something you buy for less than its true value. It is something you might not buy if it costs more. One person’s useless ugly object can be another person’s bargain. So many Americans put it outside with a “for sale” sign on it and they have a yard sale.Just about anything can be sold a yard sale: clothing, cooking equipment, old toys, tools, books and chairs, even objects you think are extremely ugly or useless. You may have an electric light shaped like a fish. You may greatly dislike its looks, but it may be beautiful to someone else. Usually the seller puts a price on each object. But the price can almost always be negotiated. The price of a table, for example, might be marked ＄10. But the seller may accept 8. If the table has not been sold by the end of the day, the seller probably will take much less.Some people go to yard sales because it is part of their job. They earn their livings by buying old things at low prices then selling them at higher prices. Many others, however, go to yard sales just to have fun. They say it is like going on a treasure hunt. Sometimes they really do find the treasure.Ned Jaudere did. The Boston Globe newspaper says Mr. Jaudere has been collecting native American Indian objects since he was a young man. Last year, he stopped at a yard sale in the northeastern city of Worcester, Massachusetts. He paid $125 for what everyonethought was an old wooden club. Mr. Jaudere thought it was something else. Two days later, he confirmed that the club had been used by the Wampanoag Indian leader known as King Philip. King Philip used it during his war with the white settlers at eastern Massachustetts in 1675. The historic weapon had been stolen from a museum in 1970 and had been missing ever since. Mr. Jaudere learnt the war club was valued at about $150000 but he did not sell it or keep it. Mr. Jaudere returned the club to the museum near Boston, Massachusetts from which it was stolen.Questions:1.Which of the following is a common American saying2.What can be sold at a yard sale3.Why do people go to a yard sale4.When was the old wooden club stolen5.What was the real value of the club6.Why was the club at a great value2Hotel or B&BPart ⅠGetting ready1.English breakfast is hot food: fried egg, fired bacon, porridge, etc.2.Continental breakfast consists of coffee, tea, rolls, jam and honey—nothing cooked.3.Half-board includes dinner, bed and breakfast.4.Full-board is the room plus all meals.5.V AT stands for Value Added Tax.Part ⅡA touch of home1.

Now we operate in more than 100 other countries.Junior Achievement is the world’s oldest, largest, and fastest growing economic educational organization. It began in 1919 in Springfield, Massachusetts. The group’s first program was for high school students after school hours. Its goal was to show young people how businesses are organized and operated. The students learned by forming their own companies. Local business people advised them.First, the students developed a product. Then they sold shares in their company. They used this money to buy the materials needed to make the product. They produced the product and sold it. Finally they returned the profits to the people who owned shares in the company. The Junior Achievement “Company Program” was very successful. It continues to teach young people about American business by helping the operate their own companies.In 1974, Junior Achievement began teaching students in their classrooms aboutbusiness. Today, there are programs for students of all ages from 5 to 18. More than 2700000 American students are involves in Junior Achievement. They are taught by more than 85000 business advisors who are not paid.Junior Achievement has programs for young school children ages 5 through 11. V olunteer business advisors teach the main rules of successful businesses. They teach how businesses are organized. They teach how products are made and sold. They also teach about the American economy, the system of money, industry and trade. And they teach students how the economy affects their families and their communities.Junior Achievement has programs for middle school students ages 12 to 14. A volunteer business expert teaches the students once a week. One program is called “Project Business”. It is about economic theories. Students learn about supply and demand. They learn about corporations. And they learn about world trade.Another Junior Achievement program for 12 to 14-year-old students is called “the Economics of Staying in School”. It is for students who may be thinking about leaving before completing high school. These students learn the importance of continuing their education. First they play a game. The game shows what kinds of jobs people have. It shows how much education is needed for each job. And it shows how much money each job pays. The students learn that workers with more education get better jobs and earn more money. Then the students learn how much money they need to buy the things they want. They realize that they probably will not earn enough money if they do not finish high school.7Fame and FortunePart ⅠB.

He became interested in computers when he was 13 years old. When most young boys his age were playing baseball or football, young Bill Gates was learning to write computer programs. These programs tell computers how to perform useful tasks. Bill Gates attended Harvard University after high school. At Harvard, he began developing the computer language called Basic. He began to think that the computer would someday become a valuable tool that could be used in every office and home. Bill Gates returned to Seattle where he established the Microsoft Company in 1975. It employed only three workers. Microsoft developed computer software for established American companies, like General Electric and Citibank. Soon Microsoft was working with the International Business Machines Company known as IBM.
