Unit 2 English: a global languageToday's topic is English as a global language. I know many of you who speak English as a second language,right? How about you, H~? Is English your first language?H:No. My first language is Japnese. English is my second language.And how about you, P~?P: English is my second language,too. My first language is Spanish.See, many of you use English as a second language, even as a global language to communicate with other people who speak English as a second language.Today I want to give you two cantrasting points of view on whether or not English is a global language. First is that English is obvious a glabal language, people who support this point of view believe English is the language of people all over the world used to communicate, and that it is gradually replacing other languages. The second point of view is that English is not truely a global language because it is not the main language spoken by most people word wide. Suporters of this view say that even though many people speak some English world wide, English has not replaced other languages. They ackonwledge that people use English every day for many reasons, but this doesn't mean English is replacing other languages, not make English the main language spoken in the world.First,let's exam the first view. First of all, English is the dominated language of business, travel and sciences. When people need a common language, they often use English. Think about it, English is often used that touriest imformation setters, in international hotels, at airports. If you use a taxi in Rome, and you can't speak Italian, the taxi driver is more likely to use English than any other languages. It is used at business meetings and international sports events. The European Union uses English along with French at its meetings. ACN, the Asian Trade Group, uses English at its meetings. Can you think of other situation in which English is used as a common language?P: How about this class? All of us are listening to you in English.Absolutely, educational settings a great example. Any others?P:How about the chatroom on the internet? I sometimes go to chatroom, seems everyone uses English. Excellent example! The internet has creat a lot of international communities and people often use English. In fact, most people who use the internet know English. This helps to support the view English is a global language.The second major reason that people believe English is a global language is that it is the offical language of more than 75 countries. This means these countries use English in schools, banks, business and govenment. Of these 75 countries, English may be the only offical language of the country like in England, or English may be used along with other offical languages, like in Filipine, Singapore and India. In country like in India, where so many languages were spoken, you can see how using English as an offical language make it easier for people to communicate. The third reason to support the global arguement is that every year about 1 billion people study English. Why? Why are some of the reasons? P~,how about you?P: Well, now to study ,and some day, I want to be in the international business.That's a solid reason,How about you? A~?A: I'm not really sure. I just think it will help me in the future somehow.OK. There is more general reason. The point is people want and need to learn English because it offers them opportunities. To sum up, English is used everyday by many people. People all over the world coming contact with each other for many reasons. The need a common language, a languge to facilitate communication. Being proficient in English give someone an advantage in these situations.OK, I have given you many examples of how English is used in a variety of situations. Nevertheless, does this mean that English is a global language? lets look at why some people don't believe English has replaced other languages.First, there are about 3 times as many people who speak Chinese as their first language as those who speak English as their first language. As in many coutries, where some people use English for work each day, they don't use Enlish anywhere else. Even in an English speaking country, there are millions of people who perfer to speak a language other than english at home with friends or at work.Second, I mentioned before,that 75 countries had English as their offcial language. This doesn't mean all or even most of the people in these countries can speak English. e.g, In India, most (s ) agree that only about 5% of the population speak English. That's a small persentage. Third, how much English does a person need to know to be called an English speaker? People may learn some English for specific situation, such as the taxi driverd I mentioned ealier. However, I think you would all agree with me that a taxi driver who knows a few phrases like "where are you going" or "what is the name of your hotel" isn't really a proficient English speaker. Another example is, Airspeak, the English that is used by aircraft controll in pilots, a pilot from their lines or aircraft control need to know airspeak ,but they may only learn the words they need for these jobs ,and therefore they cannot be considered as English speakers. The point here is that people all over the world may use English for work or other situations, nevertheless, this doesn't mean they are fluent in English. They still use their first language for daily communication, English is not their main language. So, what does this all mean? I think it's safe to say that English will continue to be the main language used in many international settings because as I said earlier, people all over the world need a common language. And for now, English is that language. But English would replace other languages for most daily communication, and this to me is what a global language really is. One that replaces others for most everyday communication. Some people are afraid of this. They worry that as people use English more and more, their ability in their fist language will decline, I think people will use English along with other languages. We are moving into a global culture, and as this continues, I think people from non-English speaking countries will want to maintain their culture including their first language, they may still want to learn English, but I don't see them to give up their own language for English. What do you think? I'm gonna stop there. I know that's a lot of imformation to digest. we'll continue talking about some of the diffrences in English words used in vary countries in Austrilia,Singapore and Filipine.Unit 3 High Anxiety: Phobiasgood afternoon! Today we are going to turn to a new topic in psychology and start looking at some specific psychological problems. There are a variety of mental problems that can affect us in our daily lifes. some are serious, like a fear of cats, or of insects, others are more serious. Now, as a psychologist, we try to study this different problems and find ways to help people.I want to start the discussion by talking about faily very common psychological problem, a phobia. that's P-H-O-B-I-A. First, I'll explain what phobia is and then I'll talk about some theories on why people have phobias. As you probobly know, a phobia is a fear. So do any of you have phobias? Oh,come on, you can tell me, I'm a psychologist. Yes, Monica.(M) I have a fear of swimming. I don't like to go near the ocean.Ok. That's not an usual phobia. Any one else?Ali?(A) I hate dogs. I mean I just unlike them. When I see a big dog, actually any dog, I just get nervous, so I avoid them.OK. that's another common phobia. Thanks for sharing those examples of phobias. A phobia is not a normal fear, it is an extreme fear, a very strong fear. e.g, my brother, who is a sucessful artist, had computer phobia. he didn't simply dislike using computers, he used to have very strong fear of using them. Psychologist just come up with 3 characteristics of a phobia. People display these 3 characterisitics, if they have a phobia, not just a normal fear.Now, first, a phobia is not a rational response. It's a very strong reaction, too strong for the situation. for my brother, this meant he has very strong physical reaction if someone ask him to use a computer. he started shaking violated, had trouble breathing, once he even started choking. Physical recations like this are common.Second, a phobia often last for a long time, for months or even years. In my brother's case, it lasts several years.Third, the reaction is too strong for a person to control. e.g, even my brother told himself to not to be afraid of computer, it didn't help. He still felt very afraid. Usually, people avoid whatever it is they are afraid of. so, in my brother's case, he avioded using a computer. OK, so those are the 3 characteristics of phobias. It's an extreme unrational response, it's long-lasting,and it's uncontrollable.(M) so 'uncontrollable' means even you try to control it, you can't?yes, it means you can't control it by try to deny you fear of phobia. There are ways to treat phobias, and we will talk about it in a minute.Yes!(A) what happened to your brother, did he get over of it?Yes, he did. The main thing was that he decided that he wanted to get over it.and he was treated by a psychologist. now, he uses computers all the time.OK.let's spend a minute going over some classifications of phobias. Phobias are classified by the thing or situation that the person fears. Greek or Latin are usually used to describe the fears. here are examples: Hypno, H-Y-P-N-O means sleep, so, fear of sleep is hypnophobia. cyno, C-Y-N-O means dog, so a fear of dog is cynophobia, right? Here is another example, aerophobia, listen to the first part, aero, what's the fear? aero, as in airplane, aerophobia is fear flying. Let turn out to the causes of phobias.One theory is that phobia is learned. This means something happens that causes someone or in a sence, teach someone to fear afraid. e.g, Ali ,could have learn to be afraid of dogs, if he was attacked or injured by a dog when he was a child. people can also learn phobias by watching how other people react. In fact, I just find that phobias tend to run in families. e.g, let's image that Ali's mother has always been afraid of dogs, whenever Ali and his mother were together and so a dog, his mother got very scared, very nervous, when Ali saw how his mother reacted, he would then gradually became very scared, too. He would then, have developed cynophobia from watching his mother. So you can see that there are two ways learning can be involved in phobias. So the 1st theory is that phobia is learned either by directed experiences or by watching thereactions of others. The 2nd theory says that a phobia is only a sign of a deeper problem. This means that the phobia isn't the whole problem. Let's take another example, I once treated a teenage who was very afraid of dark, he couldn't be in a dark room by himself, he was terrified to go outside at night, and so on. According to this theory, when he acted afraid of the dark, he was really showing his fear of sth else. In theopy he reviewed ,he was afraid of his father. His father was very strict when he was young, and once his father made him sit in a dark room when he did sth bad. According to this theory, his fear of dark was a sign of this deeper, real fear of his father. Yes, question.(A)so what did you do? did you talk to his father?Well, no, we couldn't do that. But recongnizing that he was really afraid of his father, and not the dark, was the key-step of the treatment. Now he is cured, no more fear of the dark. Ok,let's think about these 2 theories, and about the main difference between them.The 1st theory says that the phobia is the problem itself, right? And the 2nd theory says the phobia is a sign of deeper problem a person has. Why is the difference important? The most improtant in deciding how to treat the person.According to the 1st theory, if a phobia is learned, perhaps, it can be unlearned. A psychologist who follow this theory would try to teach someone to react differently to behave differently when he or she feels afraid. Changing the person's behavior is the goal. On the other hand, the psychologist who believes the 2nd theory may start by try to teach the person to react differently, but the doctor was interersted in more than that. The doctor's objective or goal is to help the patient reveal the deeper psychological problem because it will be easier to treat the phobia if the deeper problem is identified and work down as well. I want you to think for a minute, about the significance of having these 2 theories or any competing thoeries. What is it mean?I t tells us that phychologist like any scientist have to continue to do research to learn and to test treatments we believe to affect based on research. Treatments improve the more we learn.Unit 4:TV-What we watch?Good morning. Who watched TV last night? Ha, most of you. OK, today we're going to talk about an important part of the media-TV. Specifically, TV viewing and TV dramas. Now, first, I'll give you some background, then we'll discuss what make this type of programming -dramas so popular worldwide? OK, let's get started. Most of you would agree that watching TV is part of most people's lifes. Now, statistic varies on how much people watch TV, but research shows that quiet a few Americans on average exceed 6 hours of TV per day. An English professor name Ceceila Tichi has studied TV for many years. In her book "Electronic Hearth" creating an American television culture, she discusses how the TV has become the centre of activity at home. We walk to a room, turn on the TV, and suddenly, the outside world becomes less important. People use TV to tune out or forget about the outside world. We are safe to relax and join the world of the TV shows. Do you ever feel this way about TV? Yes, many of you are nodding. She also seem out culture has also defined by TV. Now, by this, she means that TV has a huge influence on our attitudes on what we like to eat, on what we like to wear or what we like to talk about. E.g., popular TV shows are discussed at work, at school, and coffee shops. We even children 4 or 5 years old do this with their favorite shows. This shows that we lived in a TV culture. Improved technology has contributed it further to our TV culture. Satellites services in particular have expanded the TV program in many parts of the world. There are now hundreds of TV channels people can watch, and the options continue to expand. Game shows, sports, news, talk shows, comedies, TV dramas, movies, man with cable and satellite, there are a lot of choices. Nielsen Media Research studiedpeople's TV viewer habits in the US. They monitor which shows are popular and with whom. e.g., popular shows have included the game show “Who want to be a Millionaire", and the reality TV show "Survivor", They were very very popular and watched by millions of people of all age groups. Now, all of this is really background. What I want to focus on today is one form of a popular TV show that is popular with many people of many age groups. This is TV dramas, specifically, TV dramas known as soap operas or in Spanish telenovelas. Some of you might be familiar with telenovelas. Telenovelas and soap opera in the US are similar, but have one big difference: the number of episodes they have. Telenovelas and TV series end after about 200 episodes, the story eventually ends. Soap operas in the U.S., however, continue day after day for many years and may never end. For example, the Guiding light has been on for more than 12,000 episodes and on it goes. Can you believe that more than 12,000 episodes? Soap operas started in the United States in 1959 with the show "the Guiding light". This TV shows were called soap operas because the main advertisers were companies that made soap. This type of programming is popular all over the world. Dozens of countries make their own soap opera shows. Mexican soap opera has been devoted the most popular TV show the year in countries such as Korea and Russia. Japanese soap operas are sent to Belgium. US soap operas are watched worldwide. The Lattern American soap opera "Betty low-fair" or "Betty the Ugly" was the huge success in the US. Brazilian telenovelas are the most widely distributed television shows in the world, and have been seen in more than 100 countries. And there are many other examples. What is it about this shows that make them popular everywhere? And why do people from very different cultures all enjoyed watching the same soap opera? Well, there are a couple of reasons. One reason suggested by Robert C. Allen who has done extensive research on television veiwing is that many soap opera deal with universal things that people all over the world understand. Themes are topics, e.g., family, love, personal struggle, money problems, marriage problems, health problems, job problems. Viewers did not need to know the culture in order to understand the family problems in the show. Now, according to E.Pillps, one of the creators of the "Guiding Light", another reason is that people identify with the characters. They feel the characters are just like them. To quote her from an interview, they, the soap operas, deal with life as we know it. Now by this, she means the family in soap operas deal with problems of everyday life. And so, as people watch everyday, day after day, a special bond or feeling develops between them and the TV family. The get to know the characters and their problems. The TV family's welfare becomes important. There is a sense of community of sharing a family. All of these things contribute to character loyalty. If any of you have watched the show regularly, you know what I mean. You watch it because you identify with the characters. Now, writers of TV shows understand that TV views want to have a group of characters to know and care about. As W.R, former exclusive producer of Generally Hospital, quoted it, the audiences want personal human connection, and when they get it ,they are devoted. This means they become very loyal to the TV characters they watch everyday. To give an interesting example from "as the World turns", some years back, the writers wanted to have to main character Bob Hughes get shot on a Friday, well, that Friday turned out to be Christmas Eve, the producer of the TV shows told the writers, " No,No,No, he can't be shot on this Friday's show. Do you know why?"Because it was too violent?"Well, no, not because it was too violent, but they didn't want him shot on the Friday before Christmas."Why? I mean, Why not?"Because the audience would worry all weekend about them, they want to know if he was alive or dead, and they would not enjoy Christmas. So, the writers had to change the story and have himshot after Christmas. I mean, the viewers really identified with these characters as if they were real people. Writers for evening TV also try to create character loyalty but not with continuing story. Instead, each week, the story begins and ends. However, each week, the same characters appear, and viewers watch because they know the characters and they care about them, like friends. A great example with this was the show “Sign field" there were four main characters, Jerry, Jodge, Crema and Len. They each had their own problems, their own personalities. Viewers got to know them and want to see what would happen to them. When you think about it, don't good writers usually do this? They develop our interesting in the characters, so they want us to keep reading, or keep watching TV. The next time you watch a soap opera, think about the things that make these shows so popular worldwide, think about as people want everyday, the get to know the characters and become a part of that TV community. OK, that's all for today, it's time for you to go home and watch some TV.Unit 5 : Learning differentlyHello, everyone! I think we can get started now. As we has studied in this class, there are many different ways of learning, and there are many different learning problems. Some people have problems with reading or math, or with expressing their ideas in words. Some people have memory problems, for example, they have difficulty remembering what they hear, or read. Other people have problems holding a pencil or pens till they can write. As educators, these are challenges that we need to understand, because everyone deserves education. And it's our job to promote learning. Today, I would like to talk about one common cause of learning problems-dyslexia. The term dyslexia that's D-Y-S-L-E-X-I-A, is from Greek. It means difficulty with words and language. In the first part of my talk, I briefly explain what dyslexia is and give you some general background about it. Then in the second part, I'll present one doctor's explanation of why people with dyslexia have learning difficulties. OK, what is dyslexia? Dyslexia means a difficult with reading or writing. Before about 1970, researchers thought dyslexia with a visual problem - a problem seeing letters and words correctly. But this theory was never confirmed to be true. Researchers have now concluded that the main problem may be the dyslexic having trouble matching sounds with letters in words because their brains work differently from other people's. That explains it. Every word is made up of sounds, right? And the sound units are called phoneme. Let's take the word 'cat', now some one has not dyslexia, will read the word cat, and be able to break it into the sounds, the phonemes,[k],[ai],[t], however, some one who has dyslexia, has trouble breaking down the word into sounds and that's the result- has trouble reading the word. There are other problems people with dyslexia may have. And not everyone with dyslexia has the same problem, that's why there is no definition of dyslexia that is accepted by everyone. We do know, however, that the dyslexic person's brain works differently from other people's. Here is a few examples of students with dyslexia and their learning problems. Anna knows the answer to a question, but says the wrong words. Toms, studies hard for spelling test, he can say how each word to spell, but he cannot write the words correctly on the test. Kert, tries to pay attention in class, but he has trouble sitting still and listening. He can't concentrate, and his teacher thinks he doesn't care about school. CEG has the trouble with the order things, such as the steps in the math problem, history lessons or even his own daily schedule. Susan has trouble following directions, she may confuse left and right. Yes, do you have a question? (Student:) I don't understand about the boy who can't stand still.The boy who can't concentrate in class?(Student:) Yes, I mean, how is that to dyslexia?Well, typicaly, the trial has trouble following spoken directions or understanding the step in a lesson. And so he becomes very nervous or upset, and can't concentrate. OK?(Student:)Oh. Okay, so the dyslexia prevencing(?) from concentrating?Right, these are some of the challenges for people with dyslexia. And as I said earlier, no two people have identical problems. Of course there are other reasons why a student may not pay attention in class, or have trouble reading, however, these are problems someone with dyslexia may have, because the dyslexic person's brain works differently from other people's. Another question, yes?(Student:) How common is dyslexia?It's estimated 10 percent of all school children are dyslexic.(Student) Waa, that's a lot. I heard that only a fact of boys, that's not true, isn't it? No, researchers have confirmed both genders can have dyslexia. Ok, so that gives you an idea of that problem. But what causes dyslexia? Researchers think there may be a genetic basis for dyslexia. There problem may inherited from their mother or their father. This is based on the fact about 85 percent of children with dyslexia have either mother or father who is dyslexic. What's interesting is well as challenge for us educator is that these kids generally score high on intelligence tests. But they usually can't read, write, or spell as the same level of their classmates. This can be a problem because other people, even their teachers often do believe that the kids are very intelligent. In addition, dyslexics often feel there are something wrong with them, because they cannot learn the same way others kids at school can. They often feel stressed and blame their selves especially when other people say they are lazy, and not trying. Many of them try very hard to learn, but still have trouble. In this part of the lecture, I present the work that Dr. Harry Levinson, a psychologist who was studding dyslexia for over 25 years. To help to understand dyslexia, he tells us to think about our brain as TV sets, and to think our part of brain to receive information as computer chips. Everyday, these chips, the parts of new brain, receive information, right? Now, this information enters into the brain, as signals as what we see or hear or touch and so on. Now, the job of these brain parts is to tune the signals to different channels in our brain. Your brain receives the signals just as your TV set at home does. Like you say, channel 5, or channel 6. Now, with these computer chips, our brain working, right? They can't receive signals correctly, nor can they tune in the correct channels. So the signals drift around and become unclear. And that's the signals drift, this causes problems. For example, the child's brain cannot receive the signals on the page as she reads, she has difficulty reading. If a child cannot tune in the signals he hears in class, he has difficulty understanding what the teacher tells him. If the signal drifts, this can also control energy levels- our ability to concentrate, our ability to distinguish what is important and unimportant. This is why some children have difficulty sitting still in class. the good news is, that after many years of research, Dr. Levinson and others have concluded that the brain can learn to fix the drifting. Children who received help often learn to deal with individual problems and do better in school. Naturally, it's best the school intervene and give help when the children are very young. It's also important the teachers, and you, future teachers be flexible about how you teach, and consider the different learning needs of students with dyslexia. In some special schools for dyslexic learners, the teachers read to the students. They don't require the students to read or write to learn. Teachers present lessons in a variety of ways, students can take tests orally rather than in writing and reading and writing are taught a separate skills. This approaches recognize that the students are very capable of learning but to be taught in a different way because the learn differently. This is a very positive step. So today I gave you some generalideas about what dyslexia is and what educators are doing to help these students learn. OK, well that's enough for today, we will talk more about this in the next class.unit 6 immigrationAll right, lets get started. US immigration is our topic today. I know many of you are immigrants, so you know something about this topic. As you may know by my last name, I have a German background. My parents immigrated to the US from Germany about 50 years ago. Yes, question?Does that mean you're immigrant?Well, no. My parents are immigrants. They came to the states from Germany, I'm the 1st generation German-American because I was born here. First, we'll talk briefly about immigration, the history of immigration to the US, and the story of diversity in the US. To immigrate means to move from one country to another, it's a permanent move. By contrast, if you go to live and work in France for 2 years, you don't immigrate there, you move there temporarily, because you plan to return to your country. So to immigrate means to move to another country to live there indefinitely. Immigration happens all over the word, most people do it to improve their economic or social situation. While I do now is give a brief knowledge about US immigration. Let's start with the colonial period, the 1st wave immigration in the 17th century. Most immigrants were from western Europe, although the spani arrived in 1513. The 1st permanent settlement in North America was when the British started in 1607 in J. T. J. People were not prohibited from immigration by the British, anyone could come. Life was difficult, and some people did not survive, but people felt it was worth to risk to have a better life in the colonial. The French, Spanish and Dutch also came, but in smaller numbers. I should also point out that about 20% of the population of this time was African-American. However, most were immigrants. They were brought from Africa as slaves. Today, we ? our discussion to voluntary immigration, to people who choose to come to the US. Now, by 1775, the US population had grown to about. 2.5 million, the country was growing fast, some thought too fast. So in the 1790s, laws were passed to control immigration for the first time. The Naturalization Act of 1798, required immigrants to live in the US for a certain number of years before they became citizens. The 2nd big wave of immigration happened between 1840 and 1920. During this wave, about 37 million people came to the US. The industry of revolution has begun in Europe causing a big shift from farming to factory jobs. Many left for the US, hoping to continue doing the farming job they knew . About 80% of these 2nd wave immigrants were from all over Europe. During this 2nd wave, Chinese workers also came to the US, mostly as contract workers. They were ranged or contracted to work for American company before they left home. Most of them worked in the gold mines of California and later builded rail roads, then laws were past in the 1880s to keep most contract workers out. Ellis, where are we? Ah, yes, 1891. In 1891, US congress created the INS, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, to control immigration. Any of you who want to immigrate to the US have heard the INS. Upon to 1891, each state had its own law and could decide which immigrants could enter. So no one really control the total number of people allowed in each year, after 1891, the Federal Government made the laws instead. A year later, in 1892, the INS opened Ellis Island in New York Harbor. Ships would go passed the statue of liberty, the symbol of a new life for many people and stopped at Ellis Island. Have any of you seen Ellis Island, or the statue of liberty? You have, EF?Yes, I have. The statue of liberty and Ellis Island.What did you think?Very impressive, interesting, too.Yes, it is interesting. Now the Ellis Island had been made into a museum. It's an important part。
全新版⼤学英语第⼆版听说教程2(unit1~7)答案Unit 1 SportsPart AListening StrategyIdentifying NumbersNumbers appear very often in every kind of listening material. The ability to catch the exact numbers spoken in English is an important but difficult skill for a Chinese learner. A good way is to practice over and over again the pronunciation of the numbers, particularly the different ways to say thirteen and thirty, fourteen and forty, etc. It also helps to practice writing down the numbers you hear quickly in numerical forms, without translating them into Chinese.You’re going to hear a passage about Michael Jordan, a retired American professional basketball player. 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. He is 3) 1.98 meters tall and weighs 4) 216 pounds. Jordan joined the Chicago Bulls team for the 5) 1984 season. In the 6) 1986 season he shot 7) 3041 points, the 8) third highest score ever.

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. Yet, after playing for 20) five more years, he once again announced his retirement in 21) 1999. 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.

However, in North America, many young people like playing American football and basketball. Almost every teenager has his or her own idol in these games. For example, Michael Jordan has a lot of fans in theAdditional Question for DiscussionWhat do you know about the Olympic Games?Demo:The Olympic Games are one of the most important international events in the world today. The modern Olympic Games arenamed for athletic contests held in ancient Greece for almost 12 centuries. They were banned in AD 394 but were revived and made international in 1896. The Winter Games were added in 1924. World War I and World War II forced cancellation of the Olympics in 1916, 1940, and 1944, but they resumed in 1948 and are held every four years. After 1992 the Winter and Summer Games were no longer held within the same calendar year. Winter Games were scheduled for 1994, after only a two-year interval, and every four years thereafter. The Summer Games were scheduled for 1996, and every four years thereafter.

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?

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.

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.
