In 10,000 B.C., there were probably 10 million people. In A.D. 1, there were 300 million. It took 1750 years for the population to reach 625 million, a little more than double the A.D. 1 figure. In 1990, there were 5.3 billion people. By the year 2000, the world's population was over 6 billion, and by 2050, it is expected to reach 10 billion. Does the earth have enough natural resources to support this many people? Different scientists give different answers to this question. Some say that there areenough resources to support more than 6 billion people. However, the richest countries, with a small percentage of the world's population, use most of the resources. If these resources could be distributed more equally around the world, there would be enough for everyone. Other scientists say that we must limit population growth because our resources are limited. Only 10 percent of the earth's land can be used for farming and another 20 percent for raising animals. It is possible to increase the amount of farmland, but only a little. Some land in developing countries could be more productive if people started using modern farming methods, but this would not increase worldwide production by much, We all know that there is a limited amount of petroleum. There are also limits to the amounts of metals. There is a limit to the amount of water we can use since most of the earth's water is salt water, and most of the fresh water is frozen at the North and South Poles. It is difficult to say how many people the earth can support, but it will help everyone if we can limit population growth before serious shortages develop. The problem is how to do it.1.Between 1990 and 2000, what changes did the world population have?It had increased by almost a billion2.According to some scientists, which of the following is true?The world’s resources are adequate but not evently distributed3.Why can't most of the earth's water be used?It is mostly salt or frozen at the North and South Poles4.In developing countries, what does the use of medern farming methods result in?5. According to the author, what can you infer from the passage?II 1.There were probably 10 million people.2.It is expected to be 10 billion.3.If the resources could be distributed more equally around the world, there would be enoueh for everyone.4.Only 10 percent.5. It is how to limit population growth.Passage II:Fresh water, life itself, has never come easy in the Middle East. Ever since the Old Testament when God punished man with 40 days and 40 nights of rain, water supplies here have been dwindling. The rainfall only comes in winter and drains quickly through the semiarid land, leaving the soil to bake and to thirst for next November. The region's accelerating population growth, expanding agriculture, industrialization, and higher living standards demand more fresh water. Drought and pollution limit its availability. War and mismanagement squander it. Nations like Israel and Jordan are swiftly sliding into that zone where they are using all the water resources available to them. They have only 15 to 20 years left before their agriculture, and ultimately their food security, is threatened. Even amid the scarcity there are haves and have-nots. Compared with the United States, which has a freshwater potential of 10,000 cubic meters a year for each citizen. Iraq has 5,500. Turkey has 4,000, and Syria has little more than 2,800. Egypt's potential is only 1,100. Israel has 460, and Jordan has less than 260. But these are not firm figures, because upstream use of river water can dramatically alter the potential downstream. Scarcity is only one element of the Middle East’s water crisis. Inefficiency is another, as is thereluctance of some water-poor nations to change priorities from agriculture to less water-intensive enterprises. Some experts suggest that if these nations would share both water technology and resources, they could satisfy the region's population, currently 159 million. But in this patchwork of ethnic and religious rivalries, the water crisis is not a clear-cut issue. It is entangled in the politics that keep people from trusting and seeking help from one another. Here, where water, like truth, is precious, each nation tends to find its own water and supply its own truth.1. When does the rainfall come in the Middle East?2. What is the cause of the water crisis?3. How many years are left for Israel and Jordan before their agriculture is threatened?4.

Maybe you should call and have it checked out.W: You're right. And I suppose I've put it off long enough.Q: What will the woman probably do?Part BPassage IPurse snatching is an increasingly common crime. There are estimated 50 to 100 purse snatchings each month in the New York City subways, the number often swinging widely because of the depredations of a single teenager. When such a professional is in custody, the snatches candecrease by more than 50 a month. One of the favored techniques is to stand between two subway cars and, as a train starts pulling out of the station, reach out and pull free a woman's purse.Recently, a crime analysis officer for the New York Police Department found that purse stealing in Manhattan's top restaurants was up 35 percent over the previous year. When a woman puts her purse on an empty chair at a table or at her feet beside her chair, she is inviting a purse snatcher to take it. Purse snatchers often work in pairs. When a target in a restaurant is seen, one of them will create some kind of disturbance to gain the victim's attention. While the woman is looking away from her table, the actual snatcher will lift the purse. A popular technique is for the thief to carry an umbrella with the curved handle down. The umbrella handle suddenly hooks the bag and in an instant it is on the thief's wrist, or under the coat over his arm if he is a man, and on its way out of the restaurant. Police advise that women in restaurants keep their purse either on their laps or on the floor between their legs.Other purse snatchers who operate in theaters are called "seat tippers", victimizing women who put their purses down on a neighboring empty seat. Others specialize in snatching purses from ladies' rooms. When a woman is in a toilet stall, her purse should never be placed on the floor or hung on the coat hook on the door. Thieves simply dive under the door and grab the purse on the floor, or stand on the toilet in the next stall and reach over and take the purse off the hook. The snatcher has enough time to escape since the victim can't immediately pursue the thief.I. 1. When does the number of purse snatchings decrease most dramatically?2. Where does a purse snatcher like to commit crimes in subway stations?3. When women are in restaurants, where are they advised to put their purses?4. What does a thief often use to snatch purses in restaurants?5. According to this passage, where does purse snatching not usually occur?II. crime analysis officer; take it; purses; in pairs; top restaurants; an empty chair; to some kind of disturbance; coat hook; snatching never be placed; in the next stall; enough time to escapePassage IIOn the afternoon of July4,1995, Mrs.Beatrice Weinberger brought her one-month old baby back from an outing. She left the pram outside her house and hurried inside to get the baby a clean nappy. When she returned a few moments later, the pram was empty and a scrawled note was lying where her baby had been. The note said: "Attention. I badly need money, and can't get it any other way. Don't tell the police about this, otherwise I will kill the baby." "Just put $2,000 in small bills in a brown envelope, and place it next to the road lamp at the corner of Albamarle Rd. at exactly 10 o'clock tomorrow (Thursday) morning." "If everything goes smooth, I will bring the baby back and leave him on the same corner 'safe and happy' at exactly 12 noon. No excuse, I can not wait! Your baby-sitter." Despite the kidnapper's warning, Mrs. Weinbarger contacted the police.A small parcel containing broken pieces of newspaper was placed on the comer the following morning. But the kidnapper did not show up. He failed to keep two other” appointments" with the Weinbergers, and left a second note signed "Your baby-sitter'. By then, the police felt that the baby was no longer alive. The FBI was called in, and the handwriting experts set to work to try to track down the kidnapper. In both notes an unusual z-shaped stroke was placed at the front of the y in words such as "money" and "baby". Starting with the New York State Police Office, the experts spent the next six weeks carefully going over local records at police offices, factories, hotels, clubsand schools and examining handwriting samples and comparing them with the writing on the kidnapper's notes. Then, in the middle of August, the experts' hard efforts paid off. The handwriting of John Rush Blake matched that of the kidnapper's, especially in the peculiar formation of the y's. Not long after, John Blake was arrested for making illegal alcohol. On being shown the handwriting samples, he confessed to kidnapping the baby. He told the police that he had left the baby alive and well in a nearby park on the day after the kidnapping. But when officers hurried to the place, all they found was the baby's dead body. The criminal was later put into New York's Sing Sing Prison. Even if John Blake had tried to disguise his handwriting he would still have been caught. No matter how hard someone may try to disguise his handwriting characteristics, the "individuality" of the writer shows through, the very angle at which he or she holds a pen, the way a t is crossed and an i is dotted, the height and size of capital and small letters, the amount of space between words, the use (or misuse) of punctuation marks. All these can identify a person as surely as fingerprints.I. 1. What happened to Mrs. Weinberger on the afternoon of July 4th, 1995?2. According to the message left by the kidnapper, on what condition could Mrs. Weinberger have her baby back?3. What did Mrs. Weinberger do after reading the note?4. How did the FBI catch the criminal?5. Which of the following words can best describe people's handwriting characteristics?II. 1. ( T ) When Mrs. Weinberger came back from an outing something terrible happened to her.2. ( T ) Someone kidnapped her baby because he lacked money.3. ( F ) The kidnapper did not confess to die kidnapping of the baby in the face of the handwriting sample.4. ( T ) It was the handwriting expert that broke the case.5. ( F ) At last, the police found the baby and he was safe and happy.Passage III.Timothy McVaigh placed a powerful bomb near a federal government building in Oklahoma City in 1995. The explosion killed 168 people, including 19 children. Arguments are increasing in the United States both for and against the death penalty. The increasing death penalty debate is caused by the planned execution of convicted murderer McVeigh. He is to be the first person executed by the federal government since 1963. 38 states permit the death sentence. Last year 85 people were executed in the United States. Recent public opinion studies show that more than 75 percent of Americans supper McVeigh's execution. These include many Americans who usually oppose the death sentence. Kent Scheidegger is with the Criminal Justice Legal Foundation in Califomia. It is a victim's rights organization that supports the death penalty. Mr. Scheidegger says McVeigh is a perfect example of why there is a need for a federal death penalty. He says anything less than the death of McVeigh would show a complete lack of justice. Groups opposed to the death penalty say the approval of the execution of McVeigh does not show an increase in general public support for the death penalty. Opinion studies show that support for the death penalty has decreased. Studies show 77 percent of Americans supported it five years ago, now only about 63 percent do, Opponents of the death penalty have always argued that it was unfair. They say poor people who can not pay for good legal help receive the death penalty more often than others. Andthey say courts order the death penalty more often when the accused is a member of a racial minority group.Part D1)generous 2)company 3)hospitality 4)reception 5)reputation6)anniversary7)suspicion8)mutual 9)vastest10)communication 11)commerce 12)contact 13)1975 14)openness 15)potential 16)secure 17)lure 18)astonish 19)reach 20)confidentLesson Three Computers and the Internet Part A1.M: This report is due tomorrow.

W: I don't know which color folder to use, white or brown.M: What difference does it make? It's the content that's important.Q: What is the implication of the man?11. W: You know, I've heard that Professor Martin's Introduction to Chemistry class is too demanding for first year students. They say it's the most difficult course for graduate students. M: Yeah, but a lot of students will tell you otherwise. Go talk to anyone who has gone to an advanced course, like Organic Chemistry, or who studied chemistry in graduate school. They're really glad they started out with Professor Martin.Q: What does the man imply about Professor Martin?12. W: Hey, Mark. Have you been able to sell your old piano, yet?M: Hmm, you were right. Just posting notices on bulletin boards at a couple of supermarkets wasn't enough.

Are you sure it's not out of your way?M: Not at all. The station is really close to where I'm going.Q: What can be learned about the man?Part BPassage IThe Application of Computers in Education The best method for improving educational standards is to utilize every tool available, including state-of-the-art technology. Computers and the internet have expanded the way in which information can be delivered to the students of today. Today's networking technologies provide a valuable opportunity to practise new learning techniques. Educators are discovering that computers are facilitating learning. Computer-based communications, or telecommunications, can offer many educational opportunities; therefore, educators will need to adapt current teaching methods to incorporate this new media into the classroom. Computers have made a fundamental impact on most industries, providing a competitive advantage that has come to be essential to many businesses. Therefore, schools must also use technology to improve the educational process. School systems often consider purchasing a computer network, and justify its purchase by applying it to routine administrative tasks, such as attendance records and grading. While these tasks are very important, they only show a small part of what technology can do for a school. Technology must go further than simply keepingattendance; it must focus on keeping students interested and productive. Since computers and the Internet have expanded the ways in which education can be delivered to students, it is currently possible to engage in "distance education" through the Internet. Distance education involves audio and video links between teachers and students in remote areas. Video conferencing allows groups to communicate with each other. Desktop video conferencing promises to bring students together from geographic and cultural distances face to face via computer. Not only will the teacher talk to the students, but the students will be able to interact with each other. This will make students more interested in learning.I. 1. According to the passage, what are educators discovering?2. What do schools usually purchase computer networks for?3. According to the author, what should computers be mainly used for?4. Which of the following is NOT a feature of video conferencing?5. Which of the following is true according to the passage?II. fundamental impact; be essential; improve the educational process; justify its purchase; attendance records; what technology can doPassage IIE-Commerce The Internet, as a means for commerce, did not become reality until the 1990s. Before this time, it was mainly a tool for the army, and a research device for some American universities. Its popularity grew when it proved to be a fast and efficient means to conduct long distance transactions, as well as an effective way to distribute information. The first advantage that e-commerce possesses is speed. With increased speeds of communication, the delivery time is expedited and that makes the whole transaction from start to finish more efficient. Also, you can find practically any product available for sale on the Internet. Even more significant is the fact that information appearing on the Internet can be changed rapidly. This gives business owners the ability to inform customers of any changes to the service that they are offering. The second advantage of electronic commerce is the opportunity it offers to save on costs. By using the Internet, marketing, distribution, personnel, phone, postage and printing costs, among many others, can be reduced. You can start doing business in cyberspace for as little as $100. The savings, therefore, are tremendous. These funds can then be diverted to marketing and advertising your product or service. Cyberspace knows no national boundaries. That means you can do business all over the world as easily as you can in your own neighborhood. Since the Internet connects everyone in cyberspace, information is transmitted at the speed of sound or the speed of light, depending on your connection. Either way, distance becomes meaningless, which enables you to link to nearly anyone on the globe, and anyone on the globe can link to you. The ability to establish links makes doing business on the Internet attractive to customers in any part of the world. A potential source of trouble is customer concerns with privacy and security. Anything sent over the Internet is sent through several different computers before it reaches its final destination. The concern regarding Internet security and privacy is that unscrupulous hackers can capture credit card or check account data as it is transferred or break into computers that hold the same information. Making a customer feel safe is important when doing business on the Internet. Even though no one can guarantee 100% security when transferring financial information over the Internet, e-commerce is still safer than using credit cards at an actual store or restaurant, or paying。

In addition to his normal heavy workload, there are a number of other things needing his attention. You will hear a conversation between Joe and Mandy. Listen to the recording and write down Joe's activities for the day.Mandy: Are you ready to go through the diary for today?Joe: Yes, OK.Mandy: Well, first there are several letters on your desk that need signing. Then from 9:30 to 10:30 you've got a meeting with John Clark from KRP. He's already arrived.Joe: Uh-huh.Mandy: At 10:30 there's the regular monthly meeting of the finance committee.Joe: When does that finish?Mandy: At 12:00. Then Sheila Gordon is coming over about the new offices. She wants to discuss the new designs with you.Joe: Does that have to be today?Mandy: Well, it seems so. We're the only department that hasn't chosen the colours and furniture and so on. So we've been holding everything up.Joe: All right.Mandy: That will probably take till 1:00 p.m. And we were supposed to be going over to see the building some time today, too. Then at 1:00 p.m. you'll be having lunch with the Managing Director.Joe: Oh, yes. He wants to discuss next week's meeting. We don't want a repeat of last year, do we, Joe?Oh dear.Mandy: Then we've set aside this afternoon for writing the annual report. The deadline is 5 o'clock, if we're to get it out in time for the Directors' meeting next week.Joe: I hate that job. It always takes at least three hours.Mandy: And you're leaving at 5:00 p.m. promptly today.Joe: Yes, it's my son's birthday party.Mandy: Well, you can't miss that. It's... is something wrong, Joe?Joe: No, I've just been getting some pains in my chest lately, that's all. It's probably nothing.Mandy: You should see a doctor.Joe: When do I get the chance? The surgery is only open till 1:00 p.m.Mandy: Well, you shouldn't take chances with your health. Oh, I'm afraid we need to fit something else in today. Samantha phoned just now. She wants to see you today about getting a new assistant. Joe: But she knows the policy on new posts.Mandy: Well, yes, but she says she's got too much work for one person and...Joe: Yes?Mandy: And if you don't see her today, she'll resign. And I think she means it this time, Joe.Joe: Oh dear! Well, when...Male voice: Sorry to disturb you, but we've just had this urgent fax for Mr Hill.Task 7Listening: You will hear a conversation between Joe and his wife. Listen to the recording and note down what Joe is supposed to do for today and tomorrow for the family.Marcia: Hello 87549.Joe: Hello, Marcia.Marcia: Hello, darling. This is a nice surprise.Joe: Well, actually I've got a problem. I've had this urgent fax from Brussels. They want me to go out there this afternoon.Marcia: But it's Donald's birthday party and you promised you'd be there this year. You remember how upset he was when you missed it last year.Joe: I know, but we may lose an important contract if I don't go.Marcia: Well, what time will you be back?Joe: Tomorrow morning, I imagine.Marcia: What? Oh, this is the limit, Joe. You know I'm going to the BCI Conference tomorrow and you said that you'd take Donald and Sarah to school and pick them up.Joe: Oh no. I'd forgotten about that. Can't you get someone else to take them?Marcia: It doesn't matter, I should have known better than to rely on you in the first place.Joe: Marcia... Marcia! Oh damn.Task 9Listening: You will hear Joe talking with his secretary Mandy again. They are talking about what Joe should or shouldn't do today. Joe will have to make some decisions. Listen to the recordingand complete the chart below with what you hear.Presenter: Joe has one main problem. He has too much to do. It's a common problem that we all have at some time in our lives. How should you deal with this problem? Well, there are three things that you must decide:1. What are my priorities?2. What can I delegate? What can or should be done by someone else?3. Are other people making unreasonable demands? So let's see how Joe deals with the situation in the light of these questions.Joe: Right then, Mandy. I've had a think about today. This is what we're going to do.Mandy: OK. I'll get the diary.Joe: Now. I've got to see John Clark, because he's already here. But the finance meeting and the meetingwith Sheila Gordon... Colin can deal with those. He's learning the ropes and the best way to do that is to take responsibility.Mandy: Right. I'll phone him.Joe: So I'm now free after 10:307Mandy: That's right.Joe: Now my first priority is to stay alive. So I want you to make an appointment at the doctor's about these pains in my chest, please.Mandy: Very sensible.Joe: Then after that, could you ask Samantha to come and see me? We can't lose her so I must see her. Mandy: But what are you going to say to her about the new post?Joe: I'll promise to put her request for a new post to the Directors' meeting next week. I hope that will keep her happy.Mandy. What about the birthday party?Joe: Well, I've promised my wife and children that I will be there this evening, so I'm going to keep that promise and I need to keep the Directors happy. So it's very important that I have lunch with the Managing Director and that I write the annual report. But I think Colin can help me with that. Mandy: So what about the Alitrain contract?Joe: Well, I think Alitrain are being unreasonable. If their new chap wants to speak to me, he shouldn't leave it to the last minute. You can't do business like that. So I think that's it. Could you get me the Belgium office on the phone, please?Mandy: Yes, of course. Oh, what about going over to see the new building?Joe: Oh, that can wait. I'll go and see it tomorrow.Unit 3 PlacesTask 3Listening: You will hear an interview with four people about their opinions of different places. Listen to the recording and note down the information 3ou hear to fill in the chart below.Number One(I = Interviewer; P = Paulo)I: Do you like your city?P: Oh yes, I feel lucky to be living in a city that's so big and exciting. I love looking out of my apartment window over the high-rise buildings.I: What's the city centre like?P: Some people say it's too noisy and crowded, but I love that. There's always something to see and do.We also have the most famous beach in the world--Copacabana Beach. Then, on the other side of the city, there are beautiful mountains. The highest one is called Corcovado, and it has the famous statue of Christ. If you look down at the city from there, the view is spectacular.I: What's the weather like?P: It's great most of the time. The only time I don't like Rio much is in the summer: it's too hot and humid.Number Two(I = Interviewer; G = Gisela)I: Do you like your city?G: Yes, it's wonderful. I think my city has everything.I: What's the architecture like?G: It's a mixture of old and new with plenty of shops for everybody. The castle is the most famous monument, and at night it looks amazing.I: What's the nightlife like?G: It's a young city because of the university, so there are plenty of cheap restaurants and interesting cafes and bars. It s got a great nightlife.I: And what are the people like?G: Well, some people are a bit reserved, but in general they're really friendly.Number Three( I - Interviewer; A - Armelle)I: Where do you live?A: Well, I live in a small village with my parents. My grandparents live here too, and my aunts and uncles. In fact, I think I'm related to about fifty per cent of the people in my village.I: What's your village like?A: It's very pretty. The countryside is beautiful, and the air is lovely and clean. But it's too quiet. I find it so dull and boring here--there aren't any discos or cinemas.I: What are the people like?A: Oh, they're lovely, but there aren't many young people. I want to go and live in the city. Soon. Number Four(I = Interviewer; L = Luigi)I: What do you think of your city?L: It is a very special place. There is nowhere else in the world like my city--it's so romantic.I: What's the city centre like?L: The buildings are beautiful, and we have San Marco, one of the most famous churches in the world.San Marco Square is wonderful, and during carnival in February Venice is the best place in the world to be.I: Do you like living here?L: No, I really hate living here. It's horrible. There are too many tourists everywhere.I: Oh dear. What are the shops like?L: Well, because of the tourists the shops are too expensive and the canals are dirty and polluted. My city is not big enough for all these people. Why don't they leave us in peace?Task 5Listening: What do you already know about Hong Kong? You will hear someone talking about this place.

As far as the climate's concerned, in the summer, um, it reaches 34 degrees but the humidity can be sometimes up to about 100 per cent so it, it's very very sticky...Um, as far as the food is concerned, it's a wonderful place, I mean, I think there are something like 19 thousand restaurants for a population of six million, which is incredible--it's the most incredible place...Um it's the sort of place where everybody has to be responsible for themselves financially, there's no social security network so people try to make their fortunes and there is an emphasis on money.., but most people are really friendly. I think anyway.Umm. Then, as far as the food's concerned, it's very, very mixed, it's the kind of place where you can find Japanese, Chinese, Thai, French, and Italian restaurants all in the same street--and everyone's eating in the Burger King round the corner !Task 6Listening: You will hear three people talking about three different places. Listen to the recording and complete the chart below with what you hear.First, AmeliaAmelia: Everyone falls in love with Rio de Janeiro. People in Rio spend so much time outdoors.

Samba remains popular, and you won't be disappointed by Rio's excellent nightlife.Next, RolandRoland: Um... I think if you come to Sydney, you'll really enjoy it. The people you meet will always help you, and we re very friendly to strangers. Oh, and of course, Sydney Harbor is absolutely beautiful--it's the largest in the world. And if you really want to see some local animals, uh, you should come to Taronga Zoo--there are all kinds of Australian marsupials there, including koala bears.Finally, LilyLily: Visitors love Singapore for the shopping. It's excellent, and you can get some real bargains here. But... um... what I think you'd like the most about Singapore is the mix of different people--um... Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Europeans. The food is great, too--you know, all kinds of Asian food and not expensive at all.

If... What would it be? Bring an umbrella.Interviewer: What was the best thing about living in Ecuador?Jim: The best thing for me I think was the mountains, I loved the mountains.I: And what was the worst thing?J: I don't think there was a worst thing really, I just liked everything about it.I: What did you miss most about England?J: What did I miss most?

Listen carefully and fill in the blanks with the missing numbers.Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time. He was born on Feb. 1) 17, 2) 1963, in Brooklyn, New York.

Jordan guided his team to win 14) six NBA championships during the 15) 1990s, scoring 16) 45 points during the 17) sixth and last game of the 18) 1998 NBA finals. In 19) 1999, he was named the greatest North American athlete of the 20th century.Jordan left the NBA at the beginning of the 1993-1994 NBA season to pursue a career in baseball. Since his baseball game wasn’t quite as good as his basketball games, he finally gave it up to rejoin the Bulls in 1995.

But he returned for two more NBA games in 22) 2001 as a member of the Washington Wizards.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about sports.

But recentlyI have failed to keep up with football.W: Now you’re busy with your golf games.Q: What do you know about the man from the conversation?Unit 2 Food and DrinksPart AListening StrategyListening “Between the Lines”People do not always say directly what they mean. Very often, we have to listen “between the lines”. The English language offers many ways for people to imply, rather than directly state, their meaning. To find out what a speaker really means, wecan rely on such things as the context, the meaning of an idiom, and the intonation used. For example, if someone says “I have an essay to write” in answer to an invitation to go somew here, we can infer from the context that he cannot accept the invitation. And if someone says “Andrew passed with flying colors” in reply to an inquiry about how Andrew did on a test, we can infer from the meaning of the idiom “to pass with flying colors” that Andrew did very well on the test. Often, intonation also helps to reveal the real meaning of a message. For example, “He is very clever” said with an ironic tone means just the opposite.You are going to hear eight short conversations between two speakers. Listen carefully and write down “Yes” or “No” to each of the following questions.1. Q: Does the woman enjoy the food in that restaurant? Yes2. Q: Is the man satisfied with the restaurant’s service? No3. Q: Do the children like the cake? Yes4. Q: Does the man like chicken best? No5. Q: Does the woman like the wine? Yes6. Q: Does John want a soda? No7. Q: Does the man like the fish? No8. Q: Will Sue eat out with the man tonight? NoScript:1. M: Have you ever been to that big restaurant opposite the school gate?W: Yes, many times. Whenever my friends come to visit me, I’ll take them there to eat.2. W: Is there something wrong, sir?M: My wife and I have been kept waiting for nearly an hour for our meal.3. W: Where is the cake I made this morning?M: We ate it, mom. Can you make another one for us?4. W: I hear you like chicken very much.M: Next to beef.5. M: Have you tried this wine before?W: No, never. It’s my first time, but it’s really to my taste.6. M: John, do you want a soda?W: Soda? I think it tastes like medicine.7. W: Why, the fish is left almost untouched.M: Well, it would be good if it were less salty.8. M: Hi, Sue, would you like to eat out tonight?W: Oh, I’d really like to, but m y sister may come to visit me this evening.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about food and drinks. Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1. Where do you usually have your meals? What do you think of the food there?2. What do you usually have for breakfast, lunch and supper?3. Do you sometimes eat out? What kind of place do you like to go to?4. What is your favorite food / dish / drink?5. How do you like health food?Demo:4. What is your favorite food? (Why do you like it?)I am not picky about food and it is hard for me to decide which food I like most. Meat, bread, vegetables, fruit, fish …, I like them all. It can be said that my favorites change with the season. For example, in spring, my favorite food includes vegetables and fruit. I like them because they are tasty, nutritious and easy to digest.Additional Question for DiscussionAre there any differences or similarities between Chinese table manners and Western table manners?Demo:Chinese table manners are different from Western table manners in several aspects. One example is that, to show kindness and hospitality (好客), many Chinese would put food with their own chopsticks (筷⼦) onto their guests’ bowls or plates even though the guests indicate they do not want the food or so much of it. However, very few Westerners would do this. They would ask their guests to help themselves to the food they like.Language FocusHere are some sentences and structures that you might find useful in discussing the above questions.●I usually have meals at the school canteen. The food there is not expensive / good / delicious / not bad.●There is always a variety of things to choose from / little choice.●I sometimes eat out at a fast food restaurant / snack bar for a change.●Hamburgers and French fries are my favorites.●I don’t like fast food.

Do you have any particular place in mind?Peter: Well, I think I’d like to eat something that’s not too heavy. I’ve been eating a little too much lately. Kate: Me too. Peter: I love Italian food, but maybe we should skip that this time. They always seem to serve so much food in Italian restaurants, and you end up eating more than you wanted to.Kate: Chinese food would be good.Peter: Yes, or maybe some Japanese sushi. That style uses a lot of natural flavors, and not much oil or cream or heavy sauces.Kate: Yes, either of those choices would be good. Let’s just meet on Saturday night, and decide then where to eat. Peter: That’s fine by me.Language and Culture Notes1. Background informationIn large cities such as New York and London, you can always find different styles of cuisine. And you have a variety of choices as to what to eat, from French food, Italian food, Chinese food, Japanese food, and Mexican food, to Malaysian or Thai food. Italian cuisine uses a lot of tomato sauce, cheese, and cream, and its food is more on the heavy side. Pizza and pasta (for example, spaghetti and macaroni) are popular with diners. Our own Chinese cuisine is noted for its combination of color, flavor and smell, and Sichuan-style spicy food and Chinese snacks are much favored by foreigners for their delicious taste. Japanese cuisine lays great emphasis on artistic presentation of its dishes. Compared to Italian and Chinese cuisine, the Japanese style of cooking is probably lighter. It uses a lot of raw food, especially raw fish, all kinds of seafood, and soy sauce with less oil and fat.2. for a whilefor quite some time3. Do you have any particular place in mind?Do you want to go to any particular restaurant to eat? “Do you have any pa rticular … in mind?” can be used for various situations.

Let me order first.Unit 3 WeatherPart AListening StrategyListening for Important DetailsBesides understanding the main idea of a listening text, we often find it necessary to grasp the important details as well. What counts as important details depends on the kind of information we want. Generally speaking, if we are listening to the narration of an event, we need to sharpen our ears not only for what happened, but also when and where, how and why it happened. In listening to a weather report, on the other hand, the important details we should watch out for are the current weather conditions, temperature, and weather outlook.You’re going to hear two short passages about weather. While listening, pay attention to such details as the weather conditions, temperature, weather outlook, damage caused by bad weather and so on, and write them down in note form. Then complete the exercises in your book.1. a. General weather conditions for today:Fine and pleasant.b. Temperature:High: 18 °C (64 °F)c. Weather outlook:Mostly cloudy with heavy showers moving in from the west.2. a. When did the storm start and how long did it last?It started around 8 p.m. and lasted for about three hours.b. How damaging was the storm?It caused four deaths and serious damage including a widespread power failure.Script:1. The weather today: a fine day is in store nearly everywhere, with the best of the sunshine in southern and central areas of Britain. A pleasant day, then, with long sunny periods developing. There will be light winds with a maximum temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, 64 degrees Fahrenheit.Look at the outlook for the next few days: it will become mostly cloudy with heavy showers moving in from the west.2. A storm in Changchun, capital of Northeast China’s Jilin Province, claimed four lives on Sunday. The storm lasted about three hours from around 8 p.m. The winds reached speeds of over a hundred miles an hour, causing serious damage and a widespread power failure.Part BPre-listening TaskQuestions for DiscussionYou are going to talk about weather and weather forecasts. Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1. What’s the weather like now?2. What’s the weather forecast for today?3. How do you get weather information?4. What kind of climate do you like or dislike?5. Which season do you like best? Why?Demo:4. What kind of climate do you like or dislike?I like the climate of Shenyang City in the northern part of China. In spring it’s neither too hot nor too cold, with the temperaturebetween 40-50 degrees Fahrenheit. The summer there is cool and pleasant. In the fall the leaves change colors with the temperature around 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit. Perhaps the winter there is the best time, for the scenery is gorgeous. The snow is like powder covering the ground everywhere and that makes it an amazing place for skiing and snowboarding.Additional Question for DiscussionDo you think it is possible or impossible to give accurate weather forecasts?Demo:I think it is too much to ask for accurate weather forecasts at present. There are still quite a few things about the weather that we just don’t understand. We have to further develop meteorological (⽓象的) science and related technologies. There is a long way to go before we can hope to have very accurate weather forecasts.Language FocusHere are some sentences and structures that you might find useful in discussing the above questions.●It’s fine / sunny / warm / rainy / cloudy / snowy / windy / freezing / foggy / dry / chilly today.●The air is close / oppressive.● A storm is coming up / building up / in the making.●It’s raining off and on / cats and dogs.●The rain / snow has stopped / let up.●It’s going to cloud over.●It’s going to be a cold day with damaging northwesterly winds / hot and humid day with a high of 36 degreesCentigrade.●It seems to be clearing up.●The weather forecast says it’s going to be clear and sunny / muggy and humid / cold and wet.●The high will be … and the low will be …●The temperature will reach a h igh of ... in the afternoon / drop to a low of … at night.●I often tune in to the radio or TV / read newspapers /go online to check on weather conditions.●I like mild / warm / cool / dry climate.●I dislike / cannot stand hot / humid / wet / very dry / bitterly cold climate.●I like spring best.

听力材料可能是关于学术报告或者学术研讨会的片段，这就要求我们具备一定的专业词汇储备和对学术语境的理解能力。

答案中，我们需要准确分辨出不同学者的观点、研究方法以及存在的争议点。

在口语练习方面，可能会涉及对某个学术问题的阐述和讨论，答案应体现出清晰的逻辑思维、准确的专业术语运用以及对相关理论的理解。

随着课程的推进，Unit3 或许会引入一些更具挑战性的听说任务，比如模拟国际会议中的交流或者跨文化沟通的场景。

此时，对于听力答案的把握，不仅要理解语言表面的意思，还要洞察不同文化背景下的交流方式和潜在的文化差异。

而口语练习的答案则要注重展示对多元文化的尊重和适应能力，避免因文化误解而导致的沟通障碍。

在 Unit4 中，可能会着重训练我们在商务场景中的英语听说能力。

这包括商务谈判、商务报告等内容。

听力部分的答案需要我们敏锐地捕捉到价格、合同条款、市场趋势等关键信息。

而口语练习的答案则要体现出专业、自信和有效的沟通技巧，比如清晰地表达自己的观点、回应对方的质疑以及寻求共赢的解决方案。
