Script of Listen and Respond:SmileI am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. The last project the professor assigned us to do was called “Smile.” The class was asked to go out and smile at three people and then write down their reaction. I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone I meet and say “hello”. So I thought that it would be a piece of cake for me.Soon after we were assigned the project, my husband, the youngest son and I went out to the local McDonalds on a cold March morning. Just when we were standing in line, waiting to be served, I smelled a horrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor homeless men. As I looked down at the shorter gentleman close to me, he was smiling. His beautiful sky blue eyes were searching for acceptance. He said, “Good day” as he counted the few coins he had. The second man was mentally retarded. The young lady at the counter asked the shorter man what they wanted. He said, “Just coffee for the two of us.” Obviously, it was all they could afford. To sit in the restaurant and warm up, they had to buy something — they just wanted to be warm.Then I was suddenly filled with sympathy. All eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two more breakfast meals on a separate tray. I then walked to the table where the two men were sitting.I put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed gentleman’s cold hand. He look ed up at me and said, “Thank you.” I leaned over and said, “Just help yourselves.” I started to cry when I walked away to join my husband and son. As I sat down, my husband smiled at me and held my hand for a moment.I returned to college, with this story in hand. I turned in “my project” and the professor was touched and read it to the whole class. The whole class was touched. I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn — UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE.课文参考译文陌生人的善意迈克〃麦金太尔1.一年夏天，我从家乡加利福尼亚州的塔霍城开车前往新奥尔良。
Unit 1 Part B Talking about studying EnglishAt the gathering ,students in china and some countries. Yang Weiping ,Virginia Wang ,both first year college students are talking about their learning of English.Hello, my na me is Yang Weiping. I’m a freshma n at Peking University, and my major is Chemistry. At college we have to study a foreign language .I choose English because I like to listen to English programs on the radio and TV. I also like British and American pop songs. Someday I hope to visit Britain and the United States. I started learning English several years ago and I’m getting better at it. My favorite activity is listening, especially listening to songs and stories .My big problem, is ,however, speaking. I feel nervous whenever I speak ,and I never seem to know what to say when people talk to me. But I’ve decided to overcome my shyness, and learn to speak English by speaking as much as I can.Hi, my name is Virginia Wang. I’m a library science major at the National Univers ity in Singapore. In our country, English is important. It is one of official languages and you have to be fluent in English to get a good job. I’ve studied English at high school. I’m good at reading because I like learning about new things and new ideas. There are so many books and articles written in English and our textbooks at university are written in English too. I know writing is also very important, but I find it really difficult. When I graduate from university ,I would like a job in the city library where I can read all kinds of new books. Part C 课本上有原文。

Blake: What's the topic?Mary: It's about Greenland.Blake: Greenland. Hmmm . . . that's part of Canada, right? Mary: I think you need to study your world geography, Blake. Blake: Well, isn't it near Canada?Mary: Yes, it's off the coast of northeast Canada, but it's part of Denmark.Blake: Oh, I didn't know that. Well, what's your paper about exactly?Mary: In my paper, I answer the question "Is Greenland really green"In other words, is Greenland covered by a lot of plants and trees?Blake: Is it?Mary: What do you think?Blake: Let's see . . . Greenland is in the Arctic Circle-way up north. It's cold, . . . so "Is Greenland really green"I'd answer "probably not."Mary: You'd be correct. It's too cold there. In the north, alot of the ground is frozen. The summers are short, so only the surface thaws.Blake: That sounds tough.Mary: It's hard for the construction industry. It's not easy to build in Greenland.Blake: It sounds so harsh. Why would anyone want to go there? Mary: There are big mountain ranges on the coasts. They're great for hiking and outdoor sports. And there are lots of animals there. You can sometimes see whales swimming in the harbors.Blake: That sounds cool! OK,so if it's not really a "green" place, why was it named "Greenland"Mary: The first settlers wanted to attract other people. They gave it an attractive name.Track 4-1-3Bart: So what exactly did you do over the summer?Gustav: We worked as volunteers at Glacier National ParkBart: I've never been there. What's it like?Carolina: It's beautiful. There are mountains and lakes... and, of course, glaciers!Bart: How was the job?Gustav: We had to do a lot of physical work. It was kind of hard.Carolina:That's true, but it was exciting, too! We actually saw bears!Bart:Wow! That does sound exciting. Maybe I should apply. I'll need a job next summer.Carolina: Sorry, Bart, but you can't apply to that program.It's a special program for international students.Track 4-1-41. Mt. Fuji is really beautiful from far away. When you climb it, it's just rocks and dirt ... but it's really beautiful from far away.2. Last year I was in San Francisco and I had a chance to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge. What an amazing feat of engineering. It gives you a chance to look through all of San Francisco and over San Francisco Bay and it's just a wonderful chance to see the city.Track 4-1-OL-1&4-1-OL-2Jay: Come in here, Elise. You should see this show!Elise: What is it?Jay: It's called "The Titanic of the Sky". It's about the Hindenburg, a great engineering feat.Elise: The Hindenburg . . .Jay: You know, that giant zeppelin that crashed in 1934.Thirty-five people died.Elise: Oh yeah, I remember now. It was flying from Germany to the United States. It crashed as it was landing.Jay: Right. It's so funny looking, don't you think It doesn't look anything like the airplanes we have today.Elise: That's true. Why would people ride in a zeppelin anyway It seems so dangerous.Jay: Well, some people called the Hindenburg "man's greatest achievement in flight."They thought it was safe, I guess. Elise: Who rode in it anyway?Jay: Mostly wealthy people. It accommodated between 30 and 40 passengers and crew. One person said it was like a "flying hotel."Elise: It sounds pretty great.Jay: Yeah, and it was fast. That's why people rode it. They wanted to get to their destination faster.Elise: Why didn't they just take a jet plane?Jay: Elise! You know they didn't have jets back then. Look, in 1934 it took five days to travel from Germany to the U.S. by ship. The zeppelin could do it in half that time.It was speedy. Elise: Well, maybe I'll sit down and watch a little bit. Maybe I'll learn something . . .Track 4-1-OL-3Jack: I think we should buy a bigger car. Big cars are safer. Kayla: Yes, but on the other hand, they consume more oil. Jack: They also look really cool.Kayla: That’s true, but there are some SUVs which are not big but also very beautiful.Jack: And I think big cars are more fun to drive.Kayla: But then again, it’s ver y expensive.Jack: Well, let’s get more information about several kinds of cars, okay?Track 4-1-OL-4My country has two very famous buildings called the Petronas Towers. The buildings are made of glass, steel, and concrete. They were designed by an American architect, but he used a Malaysian style. They were finished in 1998, and they were the tallest buildings in the world at that time. Eachtower has 88 floors, and is 452 meters high. I really like the Petronas Towers. They show both the modern and the traditional side of my countryTrack 4-1-OL-5&4-1-OL-6Modern buildings: We love them, We hate themThe world-famous Louvre Museum in Paris is almost 500 years old, and it faced a very modern problem: There simply wasn’t enough space for six million visitors each year. In 1989, American architect I.M. Pei designed a striking glass pyramid in the building’s center to be a visitor entrance and shopping arcade. But he also started an angry debate. Some people felt his glass building was a piece of art, like the ones inside the museum. Others said it was just an ugly, modern mistake.Kyoto, Japan, is the country’s ancient capital, and the heart of its culture. Its railroad station was too small for the millions of visitors. In 1997, the city completed a new station in a huge shopping center, right in the oldest part of the city. Designed by Hiroshi Hara, the building also contains a hotel and department store. Before it was built, critics said that the high, wide, modern building would destroy the cit y’straditional look. On the other hand, supporters said it would bring new life into the city center.Track 4-1-OL-7&4-1-OL-8The future building boom?Interviewer: What do you think is the biggest problem facing our cities?Erika: I think it's overcrowding. Talk to anyone living in a major metropolitan area and they will say the same thing;There's no space. Even the suburbs are getting crowded. Interviewer: Well, in some places there simply isn't any land left for building, right?Erika: Yes, that's true, but you have to think creatively. You can't give up so easily.Interviewer: Think creatively What do you suggestErika: What I'm saying is that we can build more structures underground. We can add parking lots,malls, hotels, and even apartment buildings.There's plenty of space.Interviewer: Isn't it expensive?Erika: Yes, it can be. In the past building underground has been very expensive. However, we have new technology thatwill bring the cost down. It involves using robots. You don't have to pay robots a salary!Interviewer: Isn't "building down" more dangerous than other kind of construction?Erika: Actually, I think it's safer than building skyscrapers, for example. Remember, we already do it. We have subways and underground shopping malls. I'm just suggesting we invest in a variety of bigger projects and that we dig deeper. Interviewer: What would you say to people who doubt your idea?Erika: I can understand their feelings. Whenever there's a new idea, it can cause controversy. But building down" is not some kind of impractical idea. It makes sense. There is so much space underground: It can accommodate a lot of traffic, storage, and people. With the new technology we have, we'd be crazy not to consider the idea --it's the wave of the future! UNIT2Track 4-2-1&4-2-2Situation 1Man: Oh no!Woman: What happened?Man: I can't believe it! I was sending a message and I accidentally clicked on "Reply to All."Woman: So?Man: It was a personal message for my friend, Jerry. I wanted to send it to his e-mail address only.Woman: Oops.Man: Exactly. ... Instead I sent it to everyone on the list.How embarrassing!Situation 2Man: I see you have a new keyboard. That's nice.Woman: Yes, the company bought me a new one.Man: That's good.Woman: Well, actually ... I spilled coffee on my old keyboard,and it stopped working.Man:Oh, I see.Woman: Don't tell anyone. Drinking coffee near the computers is not allowed!Situation 3Woman: Have you finished working on my computer?Man: Yes, I have. I'm afraid I don't have good news for you. Woman: Really?Man: Really. The problem is with your hardware.Woman: Oh. What do you suggest?Man: I think you should probably buy a new computer. This one can't be fixed.Woman: Well, I have had it for five years. It's time to replace it, I guess.Track 4-2-3Lea: I hate writing term papers! It takes forever!Steve: You're lucky, Lea. When I was young...Lea: Oh, I've heard this story before.Steve: Well, when I was young, we didn't have computers. We used to write our papers on typewriters.Lea: Oh, really That sounds difficult!Steve: It was, especially because I made a lot of mistakes. Lea: Did it take a long time?Steve: Yes. Computers are so much faster and easier to use. Track 4-2-41.I like the laptop because it's very, very thin. It's maybe less than one inch and it's about four pounds and I can carry it anywhere I want.2.My favorite feature of my computer is the Instant Messenger. The reason for this is that it's very affordable, fun andconvenient and allows me to chat with my friends from all over the world.Track 4-2-OL-1&4-2-OL-2Pam: Well, Lynn, I must be going.

So I’m happy.Pam: How much did it cost?Lynn: Don’t ask. It wasn’t very affordable. It’s cheaper than having a real dog, though. We don’t ever have tobuy dog food! And the batteries are rechargeable. Juliana: Hey, Henrik. Look.Henrik: What is it, Juliana?Juliana: What’s that guy doing over there?Henrik: Which guy?Juliana: The one over there. Wearing a suit.

They play themeverywhere.Juliana: Do you play them, too?Henrik: Yes, I do.Juliana: I only use my phone to make telephone calls. I guess I’m old-fashioned.Henrik: I heard that some people play games even at work.They can play quietly during business meetings. No oneknows about it.Juliana: I’d l ike to try it.Henrik: Here, use mine!Track 4-2-OL-3Penny: Hello. Your Computer World sales department.Ted: Hi, Penny. It’s Ted.Penny: Oh, hi, Ted. What’s up?Ted: well, my computer has crashed again.Penny: Oh no!Ted: Oh, yes. That’s why I’m calling. You know, it’s five years old. And I need to speak to Scott about getting anew one.Penny: well, you’ve called at a good time. We have some attractive new models.Ted: Great! I’m looking for something affordable. And I want to get something portable this time.Penny: I’m sure Scott can help you with that… Let’s see, he is in a meeting until 3:30. I’ll ask him to call you.Ted: No, that’s OK. I’ll call him after 3:30. Please give him the message.Track 4-2-OL-4E-mail is my favourite way to communicate. I think it is as fast as a fax machine, and it is as easy as a cell phone. Of course, e-mail has some problems, too. It isn’t as affordableas ordinary mail, because you need a computer and Internet service. And I don’t think it is as reliable as a fax machine. Sometimes e-mail messages get lost. But in my opinion, e-mailis as convenient as a cell phone. I can send a message from my home or office, and my friends can read it when they have time. Track 4-2-OL-5&4-2-OL-6In today’s report, we look at a new technology called pervasive computing.Pervasive computing means putting tiny computers intoeveryday electronic appliances, such as toasters and microwaves. With pervasive computing, appliances can communicate with their users – and with other appliances!Some companies now sell pervasive computing products like a “smart” toaster. It remembers your favourite kind of toast: light or dark. Companies are designing a “smart” coffee maker and a “smart” clock. Th e coffee maker can measure the water and coffee. It can even put milk in your breakfast coffee and make black coffee in the afternoon. The clock will check thetime on other clocks in your house, and give information about other appliances. For example, it can tell you, “Your coffee maker needs more water.”And that’s only the beginning. One company is nowadvertising “Save time –phone your washing machine!” engineers are making a “smart” house. In this house, the lights, heater, and air conditioner change automatically when family members come home. This makes the home comfortable, and it saves a lot of energy. Pervasive computing could change many parts of our daily lives.But do people really want pervasive computing Do they really need technology everywhere One company asked people about their opinions on “smart” appliances. There were surprises. A “smart” refrigerator can buy more food on the internet, but people didn’t want it, because it might make mistakes.“Pervasive computing is as important as a telephone,” says Rebecca Blair, president of InnoTech Corporation. But some of these products are not useful, or even practical. Companies should learn more about the technology that people really want. Track 4-2-OL-7&4-2-OL-8Local girl rescuedShe may have a broken leg, but she can’t be happier. Morgan Bailey, 11, is happy to be alive.Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan. She was at school. It was fourth period, and she was the first student to arrivein the gymnasium for her physical education class.Suddenly there was a loud noise.“There was a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom.After that, I don’t remember anything,” said Morgan.The roof of the gymnasium had collapsed under the heavy snow. Morgan was trapped underneath. She couldn’t escape.“I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg. I couldn’t move it. I was starting to get cold.”Fortunately, help was nearby. A new program using “rescue robots” was tried for the first time.“We were nervous about using the robot,” said Derrick Sneed, the man in charge of the program. “But in the end, the robot gave us reliable information. It went extremely well.”The rescue robot was able to go into the gym and locate Morgan’s exact position.“We send in robots first because it may not be safe for humans,” said Mr. Sneed. “Human beings are not as useful as robots in some situations. A gas leak, for example, could kill you or me but wouldn’t hurt a robot.”Although it didn’t happen in Morgan’s case, some rescue robots can bring fresh air or water to people who are trapped. Rescue robots go into rough, dangerous places. They work inlife or death situations. They have to be durable.Doctors say that Morgan is doing well. She should be going home in two or three days. What is the first thing she wants to do after she gets out of the hospital?“I want to meet my hero,” laughs Morgan. “That little robot that saved my life!”UNIT3Track 4-3-1&4-3-2Conversation 1Woman 1: What are you watching?Woman 2: Oh, just the news.Woman 1: Can I change the channel?Woman 2: In just a minute.

新世纪大学英语综合教程1听力原文Listen and Respond1I am now a fourth-year student at college, but I can never forget my freshman year here. In general, it is a time filled with anticipation, some anxiety, and wonderful discoveries.College is a lot different from high school. Your freshman experience will definitely make an impression on you. So, what can you expect as you head off into the wonderful world of higher education?The first thing yo u’ll notice is the workload. It will be heavier than you ever experienced before. The major challenges of college work are the large amount of reading and writing, and the short deadlines. A related effect that can be brought on by the workload is doubt, frustration, and possibly loneliness. You’ll be away from the comforts and friendships your home provided for you over the previous years.During the freshman year, you’ll be making a lot of new friends. But you should continue to be yourself. Select your friends with the same care and patience you have always shown. Believe it or not, your college friendships will be among the most satisfying and long-term of your life. I t’s always exciting to discover how wonderfully diverse college relationships can be.Yo u’ll also be on your own-you’ll be your own boss 24 hours a day, so to speak. But, remember, with freedom comes responsibility. You should always remember that you are at college with an anticipated mission. Don’t waste your time on meaningless things.During the freshman year, you may even start thinking aboutyour future. Maybe a certain professor is especially inspiring. Perhaps your school has some great research going on. If some area of study attracts you, find out all you can about it. It might be the beginning of your lifetime career. Going to college is not just to get a degree-it is to find out who you really are and what you are really made for.Task Two1.anticipation; wonderful discoveries2.heavier; reading and writing; deadlines3.most satisfying; long-term; wonderfully diverse4.anticipated mission; meaningless things5.who you are; what you are really made for2Unit 2 Learning a LanguageListen and RespondHello, I'm Alberto.I'm a student of English, French, Portuguese and Italian.I would also love to learn Chinese and German in the near future.My mother tongue is Spanish and I have a degree in Political Science.I love to learn new languages, because I think it broadens my mind.Even though I still have some difficulty with verb tenses,I'm confident that with time and practice I'll cope with them.I believe learning a new language besides your mother tongue can be useful,especially in a world where distances are shortenedand people from different countries communicate with each other more frequently.Learning a new language can be a good experience,but only if you keep inmind that nothing is obtained without some effort.In my opinion, the best way to learn a language is to read a lot.It doesn't matter what you read, but that you do it.Even if youdon't understand everything,your reading comprehension skill will improve remarkably.Also, if possible, watch a lot of television in that language, or listen to CDs.Maybe at first you won't understand a word,but later you'd catch on to the rhythm of the language.Good dictionaries are necessary, and books regarding vocabulary can be a plus.The Internet is also a useful tool.The language you choose to learn might seem a little difficult at first,or even totally strange, but you'll get accustomed to it. Remember that the learning process is long, and that it never ends.However, it is also highly enjoyable.3The Birthday HeartOne day I was helping my mom preparing a picnic when my sisters arrived. They said, “Happy birthday, Mom!”and gave her some presents.I was sad. I had forgotten it was my mother’s birthday, but I didn’t want her to know that I had not remembered her birthday. I had one dollar in my piggy bank. With that I was sure that I could get a present that would show my mother how much I loved her.I went to the store. When I looked around, I suddenly realized that my dollar wouldn’t buy as much as I had thought it would. Then I saw a heart made of plastic. It contained typewriter correction paper. I knew that it would show my mother how much I loved her. It was ninety-nine cents.I took the heart to the cashier and gave her my dollar. She said that I didn’t have enough money because with tax the heart cost more than a dollar.I didn’t understand sales tax. All I understood was that I couldn’t’ give the heart to my mom.I went to put the heart back and the cashier asked me if it was my mom’s birthday. I nodded. Then she said that she could help me. She put some of her own pennies in the cash register with my dollar and gave me the heart in a bag.When my mother opened the bag and pulled out the heart, she exclaimed “What a beautiful present!”“It’s just what I need.”She put me on her lap and told me that she loved the heart and she loved me.I don’t remember many of the gifts that I have given my mother, but I will always remember the heart that I gave her on that birthday.Task Two1. sad2. her mother’s birthday3. want her mother4. how much she loved her5. wouldn’t buy6. ninety-nine7. put the heart back8. cash register9. “what a beautiful present! It’s just what I need.”10. her lap4Parents and TeenagersTeenagers and adults have a difficult time communicating. Teenagers often think adults don’t understand them. Adults often think teenagers just don’t listen to anything they say. That creates conflict. People very often use “generation gap” to explain the conflict between parents and children. However, the problem of communication between parents and teenagers doesnotall lie in the “generation gap”. It lies mostly in implied statements that are not fully communicated between a teenage child and a parent. Here is one example. Mother says: “Please take out the trash.” The teenager replies: “OK.” However, one hour later the mother finds the trash is still in the kitchen and so becomes a bit unhappy. “I thought I asked you to take out the trash.” But the child replies: “You didn’t say I had to do it now.” Are you familiar with this kind of conversation? In this conversation the mother feels that the teenager should know what she means, but the teenager just doesn’t. Conversations like this take place around our home every day. They cause some unhappiness but are totally normal, and can usually be solved quite soon. I t is when this type of “lack of communication”gets involved with the bigger issues of teenagers that larger problems can be caused. It is more difficult to solve these larger problems and it takes the efforts of both parents and teenagers to overcome such problems.Task Two1.don’t understand them2.don’t listen to anything3.generation gap4.fully communicated5.should know what she means6.some unhappiness7.gets involved with 8.solve these larger problems 9.to overcome such problems 5Script:What is personality? How does knowledge about personality help us?First of all, let us take a look at what personality means. In general, when psychologists talk about personality, they are usually looking for things that make a person different from others or things that can explain how a person is not the same as others. However, different psychologists have different ways of explaining what personality is. They often use tests to put people into categories and compare them. For example, people who are quiet and like to spend more time at home reading and doing their own things are called introverts. “Introverts”is spelt I-N-T-R-O-V-E-R-T-S. Others who enjoy going out and spending time with other people are called extroverts, E-X-T-R-O-V-E-R-T-S. Do you know which personality type you are? Are you an introvert or an extrovert.Second, how can knowledge about personality help us? Well, one of the ways is that by knowing how people behave and why they behave in a certain way, we can understand them better. This will help to make our relationship with them stronger. For instance, if we know that someone is an introvert, we will understand why he or she does not feel comfortable when he or she is with a big group of newly met people. We may then help this person to make friends and talk to others.Another way knowledge about personality can help us is when we want to improve ourselves. If we know what personality type we belong to and the reasons we behave the way we do, we can then try to change some of the bad things so that they can become good. In this way, we can make ourselves a better person.So, after listening to this short passage about personality, do you want to find out more about yourself?Task Two:1. explain2. quiet; spend time at home; own things; extroverts; going out and spending time with other people.3. understand; stronger4. comfortable5. improve6Xiao Wang: People are so impolite these days!Xiao Chen: What’s the matter, Xiao Wang?Xiao Wang: Well, you see, this morning I was sitting in the back of the bus, alone, by myself. A friend called so I talked on my mobile phone to him for a while.Xiao Chen:Yes? What happened?Xiao Wang: Well, two people kept giving me dirty looks. You know, this is not the first time. It happened before. And when I got off the bus, one of them told me to stop usingmy mobile phone. He said I had talked too loudly about private matters and hehad not the least interest in knowing about them. I just don’t understand thesepeople. What’s wrong with them?Xiao Chen: I see. Actually similar things have happened to me many times, too. I must say there’re ru de people everywhere these days. Like, the other day, I was sitting in the park, smoking a cigarette. I was just sitting there, you know, enjoying the niceweather, looking at the birds, listening to music, and smoking.Xiao Wang:Yeah, what happened then?Xiao Chen: Well, when I finished my cigarette, I did what I always do when I smoke in the park. I put the cigarette butt on the sidewalk and crushed it with my shoe.Xiao Wang:Right. That’s what I usually do and there’s nothing wrong with it. This w ay it won’t be a danger to anyone.Xiao Chen: Well, this guy walking by saw me putting out my cigarette and told me that it was not very nice. He said it was bad for the environment. I just don’t get it. How canit be bad for the environment? Why are people so impolite?Xiao Wang:Well, well, I must say there are certainly rude people everywhere!Task Two1. alone2. looking at3. got off; private4. wrong5. crushed/ put out; danger6. very nice7. bad8. rude/ impolite。
Book1-Unit 5Optional Listening 1Toshi: Hi, Isabel. How are you?Isabel: Okay, Toshi… well, actually, I’m missing Spain today-especially the food.Toshi: You’re from Madrid, right?Isabel: Not exactly. I go to school in Madrid.Toshi: Oh, where do you live, then?Isabel: Getafe. It’s small suburb near Madrid.Toshi: I don’t know it.Isabel: Well, only about 150,000 people live there. It’s kind of boring. But it’s very affordable. Toshi: That’s good. The city I’m from is very expensive. You’r e lucky.Isabel: Yes, but we have a problem: the traffic. Sometimes I drive to school and the traffic is terrible.Optional Listening 2Singapore is a great city for a vacation. There are a lot of interesting things to see. You can visit Chinatown and little India, and go shopping on Orchard Road. Singapore also has many good restaurants. There are some great beaches for swimming near the city, and the parks are really beautiful. The city has very good public transportation---- you can take a bus, tr ain, or subway. It’s a safe city, and there isn’t much crime. It’s also a clean city. There isn’t much pollution. The only problem is that Singapore is expensive. The population of Singapore is approximately 4.84 million. With a medley of Chinese, Indian and Malay influences and a tropical climate, tasty food, good shopping and a vibrant nightlife scene, this Garden City makes a great stopover or springboard into the region.Optional Listening 3Choosing 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 Istanbul 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 boats to go between the Europe side and the Asian side. The weather is very good in summer, but in winter it’s sometimes 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 parks 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 very good. Vancouver is famous for rain! But there are many good museums for those rainy day, and in the evening, the city has great restaurants and nightclubs to visit.Optional Listening 4Two magazines recently listed the best cities to live in. Here are two o f the cities listed as “the world 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 ci ties in Central and South America, San Jose has comfortable weather all year (15oc/60 o F to 26oc/79oF). 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 live 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 East, 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 Ame rica,and other parts of Asia. Minuses: 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. Traffic and air pollution are also a problem.Keys:OL1: A. 1. Getafe; 2. Madrid. B. small city, not very exciting, affordable.OL2: Population: 4.84 million; Weather: Tropical; Cost of living: Expensive; Transportation: Very good public transportation; Nightlife: Vibrant.OL3: B.

It was built by a song-writer and country music lover, Elvis L. Carden, in the 1970s.It’s right on the road and is brown. It’s not that strange, when you look at it from ground level. You probably would really noti ce it just driving by. In fact, you can’t really tell what it is from the street. But if you stop and look, the roof has a very slight slant, and then you can tell.It’s basically a modified ranch house with a long narrow walkway or hallway leading to th e garage, thus the guitar shape. It has a flat roof with the electrical wires running along the top to mimic guitar strings.The Shoe HouseHellam is a small town in south-central Pennsylvania. In this town, there is a shoe house. The house was built in 1948 by shoe magnate Mahlon N. Haines to advertise his business.The shoe House is a wood-framed house, which is 48 feet long and 17 feet wide at its widest point. It is a replica of high-top work boot. Besides a sole, heel, and toe, this shoe house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a living room.Originally, Haines used Shoes House as a guesthouse. He invented elderly couples to spend the weekend and live like “kings and queens” at his expense. He also let honeymooners stay there for free, as long as they came from a town that they had a Haines shoe store.After Haines passed away, the Shoe House was sold. Now it has been turned into an ice cream parlor and is open to tourists.Keys:OL1: A. housing; B. C C.

Instead, they used home remedies—medicine made from things from home. Today, many people like to use home remedies because they are cheap and easy to use. Here are some old home remedies from the United States.When you have sleeping problems.·Don’t eat dinner lat at night. Have a small, light dinner early in the evening.·Eat lettuce for dinner. It helps you feel calm.·Eat raw onions to help you sleep.When your ears hurts.·Don’t eat very cold food, like ice cream.·Put some salt in a bag, heat the bag, and put it into the side of your head.·Put warm oil in your ear.When you have a headache.·Don’t eat very cold food, like ice cream.·Lie down and close your eyes. Breathe calmly, and don’t think about anything.·Put a hot cloth on your head, above your eyes.When you have a stomach problem.·Eat a lot of yogurt to help your stomach work better.·Drink tea made from the ginger, peppermint, or chamomile plants.·Reduce alcohol, tea, and coffee.Optional Listening 4Student: I’m an 18-year-old high school student in Seoul. In eight months, I’m going to take the university entrance exam. To prepare, I’m studying six hours a day. I want to do well, but I’m really stressed these days. I can’t sleep. What can I do, Donna?Donna: Your problem is a common one for many students around the world. Here are some tips to help you. First, don’t do too much. Make a study schedule for yourself, but don’t study too much in one day. You remember more by studying one hour each day for six days, than six hours in one day. Also, don’t study late at night, because we often forget information studied then. Second, take breaks and relax. You learn best when you study in two-hour blocks. Every two hours, take a break for 15 to 20 minutes. Go outside and walk. Exercise is a great way to reduce stress. It can also improve memory and help you sleep better t night. Third, eat well. Don’t eat or drink a lot of sugar and caffeine. Eat food high in vitamin B, for example, eggs, yogurt, green vegetables, tofu, and rice. These give you energy and help you think more clearly. Finally, get a study partner. A study partner can help you practice fro the test. When you’re worried about the exam, you can talk to your partner. This can reduce stress, too.Key:OL1: A. 1.
