Unit 3 听力原文Part IBSam: I won?t be able to do the exam tomorrow. I just don?t feel that I?m ready.Counselor: You say that you don?t feel ready for tomorrow?s exam ... what do you feel like right now?Sam: Well, I?m angry with myself because I?m going to have to quit the exam and, well, I guess I?m anxious. Yes, I feel very anxious.Counselor: When you think about this anxiety, what image do you have of yourself?Sam: Well, I see myself trying to explain to my Dad why I didn?t make the grade on this course ... and I see him getting angry ... and, well, I start to feel I?ve let him down again.Counselor: You don?t feel ready for your exam, you feel anxious and you don?t want to let your Dad down again. Tell me about the last time you let your Dad down.Sam: Oh, well, it was a year ago ... He?d entered me for a chess competition and I got knocked out in the first match ... he was angry because he?d told all his friends how good I was.Counselor: What did you tell him ... as an explanation when you lost the chess game?Sam: I told him that I wasn?t ready to play in that league.Counselor: And now you are preparing to tell him that you?re not ready to sit this examination? Sam: Yes, I suppose I am.Counselor: O.K. Sam, so what you are saying to me is that you feel reluctant to take the exam tomorrow because you do not like the thought of having to explain a poor grade or a failure toyour father. Is that right, Sam?Sam: Yes. That?s exactly it.C1. A: When I read in English, I always want to understand every single word and so I spend a lotof time looking words up in my dictionary. This makes reading difficult for me because by the time I?ve looked up the word in my dictionary, I?ve forgotten what the rest of the sentence was about. That?s my trouble really — I rely too much on my dictionary.B: Well, why don?t you try to read a text without using your dictionary the first time you read it? You?ll probably be able to understand most of it and guess what some of the words mean.2. A: I have to read a lot of books and articles in English for my work —I?m a consultant in business management. What I find most difficult is finding the main point in an article or a paragraph. I always try to take notes when I?m reading and so sometimes I find that I?m almost copying out the whole article because I can?t decide what the really important points are.B: It might help if you read through the book or article very quickly first just to get an idea ofwhat it?s about. I think it?s difficult to read something for the first time and take notes as well.3. A: I like reading novels and short stories in my own language and in English, but there?s one thing I find very difficult in English. I?m never quite sure if the writer is being serious or not. Several times I?ve read something I thought was serious and later I?ve found out it was supposed to be funny.B: I have exactly the same problem. I suppose the only thing to do is to read as much as possible. Then one day perhaps we?ll understand the British sense of humor.4. A: I have to read a lot in English in my studies and this is causing me problems. I read too slowly in English. Do you think I can train myself to read quickly and at the same time understandwhat I?m reading?B: Well, there are special courses in speed reading, I think. But you could probably help yourself if you set yourself a time limit and try to read as much as you can within the time. I?ve done that and it?s helped me a lot.Par tⅡ(Part I)Yes, the teacher I remember best was a teacher I had for French when I was at school ... er ... er ... Many years ago - more years than I care to remember, I?m afraid. Yes, I studied French with him for, um, ooh, let me see, it must have been five years, because I had him when I was in myfirst year there, when I was thirteen, and he was the main French teacher till I left. It was mainly because of him that I went on to study languages — French and German — at university. I mean, French was really the first language I ever learned. Well, I don?t count Latin, because I never managed to speak any Latin at all. Er, well, this ... this teacher didn?t make it easy ... he didn?t make it easy at all, but I found that with him I really learned a lot.When I think back, I ... don?t really know why I liked him so much, because he was very strict with us. He made us work very hard — I mean, lots of grammar exercises, vocabulary tests, that sort of thing — er, and he wasn?t very friendly either, for the first two or three years. Oh, as well as that, he didn?t really try to make the classes interesting —I mean, no ... no video, of course, in those days, no cassettes ... but, er, we had a few films in French every term. No, in fact, the only time we really practiced trying to speak French was, er, was with the wife of one of the music teachers, who was French, er, and she gave us an hour?s conversation class every week. But, you know, because of that man — some people might say in spite of him ... no, that wouldn?t be fair, no — but quite a lot of us began to like France and the French a lot, and, er, to visit France in the summer holidays to see it for ourselves.(Part II)Yes, I think with him I learned that when you learn a foreign language ... it?s, it ... well, it?s like opening a door or a ｗｉｎｄｏｗinto a foreign country. And that?s good for you, I think, because you begin to see that the way they do things and think in your country is, um, isn?t necessarily the only way or, indeed, the best way.It?s funny, I still have a very clear picture of that teacher. He was English but he didn?t look English somehow, ,cos he had very, very black hair and very dark eyes, and he wore glasses with black frames, but you could see his eyes very well, and everyone in the class always had the feeling that he was looking at them. And he had very thick, bushy eyebrows that made him look very, er, very serious.Yes, I remember he was very musical —played the piano very well and sang. Now, he was quite a good rugby and tennis player. Great family man, too. He had three children and a very interesting wife. I suppose he must have been in his thirties when I knew him ...PartⅢChildren of a Decadekeep in touch with：保持联系soak：浸泡come to：到达;共计;突然想起put sb. off：使人离开、气馁bring tears to：使落泪emblazon：颂扬，盛饰decade：十年teddy：妇女连衫衬裤chap：小伙子，小家伙，家伙Lake District：湖区porridge：粥;麦片粥;稀饭incident：事件，事变goody-goody：会巴结的人hymn：赞美诗;圣歌homesick：思乡病favorite：中意的worst：最坏的marvelous：非凡的;神乎其神shy：害羞的stupid：笨Presenter: In this edition of our series “Children of a Decade” I?ll be talking to Jack Thompson, who was born in 1940, and to Shirley Sutton, who was born in 1930. First of all, Jack, thanks for joining us. Perhaps ...Jack: Not at all.Presenter: Perhaps you?d tell us about your memories of your first holiday away from home?Jack: Oh ... yes ... um ... at age ten I think it was, yes, I went to stay with an aunt at the seaside. Well, it wasn?t a very happy experience. I felt very homesick at first.Presenter: Mmm. And what about your first day at school, can you remember that?Jack: Yes, I can. Er ... er ... I was five years old and I wanted to take all my toys with me but ...er ... they wouldn?t let me. In the end it was agreed that I could take my teddy ... er ... but only on the first day.Presenter: Oh, I see. Your school days, were they happy ones?Jack: Well ... er ... I didn?t have a very good time at school — I wasn?t very bright, you see. And the teachers didn?t seem to like me, but ... er ... I made a lot of friends and some of them I stillkeep in touch with. One of them I married.Presenter: Oh, that?s wonderful. Well, did you have a favorite teacher?Jack: Miss Robinson ... or was it ... no, it was Miss Robson. My first teacher, that?s right yeah ...very kind. Marvelous storyteller.Presenter: And who was your worst teacher?Jack: Mr. Goodman, that?s right. We used to call him “Goody”. Yeah, he pulled your ear if you made a mistake or talked in class. Yeah, my left ear is still bigger, look.Presenter: Ha ha. Perhaps you can tell us about your last day at school?Jack: My last day, oh yeah, that?s emblazoned on my mind. Oh, I wanted to get my own back you see on old Mr. Goodman — the chap we used to call ... er ... “Goody”— so I put this bucket of water over the classroom door but it fell on him and he got soaked, you see. Ha ha. I?ve never seen anyone so angry. Oh, it was a good one, that.Presenter: Thank you very much, Jack. And now Shirley.Shirley: Yes.Presenter: Now, can you tell me about your first holiday away from home?Shirley: Oh yes ... er ... yes ... er ... at the age of eight it was. We went on holiday to the Lake District. We stayed at a little guest house, just me and my parents. Er ... I remember we had ... er ... honey for breakfast with ... er ... the toast and ... oh ... and porridge — I hated it.Presenter: That sounds lovely? Oh, porridge, you hated it?Shirley: Ha ha.Presenter: Well, what about your first day at school?Shirley: Well, I ... I ... I don?t remember any special incidents ... er .... Oh, I was very frightened and shy at first ... er ... I ... I know that, I can remember, but I soon came to enjoy school. Presenter: So your school days, were they happy?Shirley: Oh yes, I loved school! Oh, I was sorry when half-term came and... and when the holidays came. Oh, perhaps this was because I was a bit of a goody-goody.Presenter: And what about your teachers? Did you have a favorite?Shirley: I did, yes. I remember her well, she was called Miss Brown and she was our history teacher. Oh, she really made history come to life, she really did.Presenter: Were there any bad moments? Did you have a worst teacher?Shirley: Aye, I did and I can remember her name too. Her name was Mrs. Sharpe and she taught math. Oh, she had no patience. I wasn?t all that good at math and she always said to me, “You stupid girl!” It put me off math for life.Presenter: Oh, what a shame.Shirley: I know.Presenter: Perhaps you could tell me about your last day at school?Shirley: Oh yes, well, I?m afraid I cried. We sang our favorite hymn at the end of the term and I cried. It brought the tears to my eyes.Presenter: Oh, and it?s bringing a tear to my eye now. Thank you very much.Shirley: Thank you.Presenter: And thank you too, Jack Thompson, thank you very much. Next week we?ll be hearing from two people who were born in 1920 and 1910. So from me, Libby Freeman, good-bye.PartⅣSchool reportschool report：学生成绩报告单safety：安全quality：质量empowered：授权;准许;使能够involvement：投入，介入guarantee：保障superior：（级别、地位）较高的;（在质量等方面）较好的;（数量）较多的;上...concentrate：集中comment：评论intelligent：聪明的;[计]智能的give up on sb：放弃biology：生物学;生物well above：好于guide back：保证geography：地理（学）oral：口头go to pieces：零散average：平均positive：积极come bottom：打底attitude：态度look on the bright side：看好的一面hockey：曲棍球Mrs. Daniels: Oh, hello, you must be Tracey?s parents? Mr. Thompson: Er, yes. Are you her class teacher, Mrs. Daniels?Mrs. Daniels: Yes, that?s right. Now, just let me find my notes. As you know I don?t actually teach Tracey, but I do see her every day before classes begin. Is there anything you want to ask me?Mr. Thompson: Well, yes, to be honest we?re a bit worried about her last report -- she doesn?t seem to be doing as well as she was.Mrs. Daniels: Well now, let?s see. Oh, yes, her math teacher says she?s finding the work more difficult now that they?re getting near to the exams. Mrs. Thompson: I was never any good at math.Mrs. Daniels: And Dr. Baker feels that Tracey isn?t concentrating very hard in biology lessons. Mrs. Thompson: Oh, but she really likes biology and she?s so good at drawing.Mrs. Daniels: Yes, but even in art her teacher thinks she tends to spend too much time talking toher friends. In fact, several of her teachers have told me that she isn?t giving in her homework. Mr. Brock has complained to me that he hasn?t had a single piece of geography homework from her all term.Mr. Thompson: Yes, we don?t know what to do about it. She doesn?t seem to be interested in school any more.Mrs. Daniels: I don?t think we should give up on her. Tracey?s a very intelligent girl. In English her marks are well above the average and her teacher says she always has a lot to say in lessons. Mrs. Thompson: Yes, that?s part of Tracey?s trouble. She talks too much.Mrs. Daniels: Well, nevertheless, oral skills are very important and if we can all guide her back toa more positive attitude to school work, she?ll do very well.Mr. Thompson: Well I hope so. I?m very disappointed in her. She was doing so well, especially in English and French, and now everything seems to be going to pieces. She came bottom of the class in French this term.Mrs. Daniels: Well it?s not because she can?t do French — she just prefers to chat in English! At least she?s doing well in sport. She?s in the hockey team and you know we haven?t lost a single match this year!Mr. Thompson: Well, it?s nice to know she does something well.Mrs. Daniels: Oh, come now, Mr. Thompson, let?s look on the bright side.Part V Memory test: Study HabitsMan: Do you find that you get a lot of students asking you for advice about revision techniques? Woman: Well, yes, I mean, they do, but, when they?ve got quite big exams coming up, (yeah), you know I really find it quite a problem because (pause) (laugh) well, I don?t have to revise myself very often these days, and ... but when I ... when I was at university, erm I mean, well, it just seems to be a matter of what suits one person doesn?t suit another. (Oh yeah) I mean, because,well, the girl I shared a house with at university. Now she worked, erm, she used to get up amazingly late, and, er, she didn?t really start work until, er, in the evening I think, an?, then she liked to have rock music on really loud an? she used to, you know, play records really loud right through until sort of very late at night, you know, into the small hours (Oh God!) and I was, sort of, well I was just the opposite and er, well, the only way I could ever get any work done was to make myself wake up incredibly early and well, then work a bit and have some breakfast and, then, well, you know, I?d sort of potter about a bit and then I?d go and do my shopping and things, well that?d be about getting on towards midday, but then in the afternoon I?d have a rest and when I woke up I?d think about eating and I suppose I?d call that my supper, and but, er, I mean she was, I mean, it was her lunch or even her brunch that she was having at that time.Man: Yeah, yeah, I suppose I?m a bit like you really. I like to get up fairly early, say around seven, might have a cup of coffee, and... before I started get myself totally organized so that I knew ... exactly what I was doing, get it all organized, and then work solidly, well maybe do six hours revision without stopping and that was the only way I could do it.Woman: Yes, yes, and would you say to yourself, you know, er, “well, I?m gonna do six hours today and I?m not gonna, go, I?m not gonna have any fun until I?ve done six hours,”?Man: Yeah, it was very much like that, erm, an unpleasant thing that you had to regulate.Woman: Mmm. I mean, well, I just hate revising anyway, I mean, you know I hate that sort of thing, I mean, and in fact, I did very little solid, sensible work, and, er ... what I?d do is, because I was doing literature, I used to re-read the novels, you know, on the course, and I?d have ... erm ... classical music on the radio, because well I used to find that I used to get very bored if there was just nothing, you know nothing at all in the background.Man: Yes, I think of the people who do revise, there are two sorts, there are those who ... work almost by topic, they select a topic, and plough through it regardless, and then, there are, there are those who set themselves a time limit of an amount to be done rather than working through a specific topic regardless of the limit ... of time ... as I say ...。

英语听力教程第三版张民伦主编UnitAKaleidoscopeofCulture听力原文Unit 7 A Kaleidoscope of CulturePart I Getting readyMew York is one of the most important cities in the world. It is not only a center for business, but also a center for music and art. It has many famous buildings and places of interest. And it, too, has jot its nickname. What is itAudioscript：A：Are you ready for the trip to the museum in "the Big Apple" I can hardly wait.B："The Big Apple" What are you talking aboutA："The Big Apple" is the nickname for New York City. You are going to New York with us, aren't youB：Yes, I'm going. I'm especially looking forward to seeing the Museum of Modern Art. There's a special show of 20th centuryAmerican painters there. But, tell me, where did the nickname"the Big Apple" come fromA：The jazz musicians of the 1920s are responsible for the name.When they played a concert in a city, they called that city an apple.Of course New York was the biggest city in the country and best place for a jazz concert. So the musicians called it "The Big Apple".B：Amazing! New York is such a fascinating place and it even has an interesting nickname, one that it's had for more than 50years. Britain is famous for its pubs, where you can sample a pint of British beer, enjoy good-value bar meals and savor the friendly atmosphere. The pub boasts an excellent range of hot and cold bar snacks or a wide selection of home-cooked meals with a warm and relaxed atmosphere.Audioscript：There are visitors who come to England and leave thinking they have never been inside a pub. They don't realize that the words "pub" or "public house" are rarely included in the title of the place. So how do you know whether a building is a pub and what does a pub offer the visitorThe first thing to look for is a large sign either hanging over the street or placed on a pole outside the building. This sign may have a name like The Kings Arms, The Black Rabbit or The Duke ofKendal or an appropriate picture. Many pubs have names linked to royalty, popularheroes, sports or great occasions. There is a pub called The Concorde after the new airliner.On the doors of a pub you may see the words Saloon Bar or Public Bar. The Saloon Bar is more comfortably furnished. Occasionally the words Free House can be seen beside the name of the pub. This doesn't mean they serve free food and drink; it refers to the fact that the pub doesn't buy its drinks from one particular brewery only. It isn't a "tied house" -- tied to a brewery.The services a pub offers vary around the country. The basic service is the sale of alcoholic drink at certain times of the day. Opening times, as these periods are often called, are usually from 10.30 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. on weekdays. On Sundays the opening times are 12 noon until 2 p.m. and 7-10.30 p.m. although these times can vary slightly according to theregion. Pubs can also offer food and accommodation. To help visitors, an experimental system of symbols has been tried out in Southern England and East Anglia. These symbols indicate just what is available from a particular pub.Part II Times squareTimes Square is in the heart of New York City. Every year, Times Square is the center of worldwide attention on New Year's Evebecause of the rooftop celebrations to usher in the New Year. Apart from that, there are some other things that make Times Square famous.Audioscript："Times Square is New York." Those are the words of the head of the Times Square Alliance, a coalition of area businesses. The millions of visitors to Times Square each year would probably agree. The area has one of the most recognizable names in the world. But, Times Square is not really a square. It is the name for the area around where Broadway crosses 42nd Street in Manhattan. The Times Square area stretches more than ten blocks north to south. The borders to the east and west are uneven. Some people call the shape of the area a bow tie.Times Square gets its name from The New York Times newspaper. In 1904, the newspaper began to build its headquarters in what was then called Long Acre Square. The city's underground train system built a stop under the Times Tower. The city renamed the area Times Square. On December 31st, 1904, the newspaper held a big celebration in Times Square to welcome the New Year. Fireworks lit the sky. Celebrations have taken place every year since then. Now, crowds also watch a big glass ball slide down a pole as the New Year arrives.Hundreds of businesses are in Times Square. The alliance says twenty percent of all hotel rooms in New York City are in Times Square. It says Times Square also has about six and one-half million square meters of office space. And more is being built.Times Square is home to famous Broadway theaters. And several television companies have studios there. MTV is one of them. Times Square is probably most famous for its huge colorful signs. The alliance says Times Square is the only place in New York where businesses are required to use them.Audioscript：It is another typical morning in Times Square: Taxi cabs blare their horns, 15 foot billboards look down over throngs of people hurrying by, and in the middle of it all, members of a smash Broadway musical climb up on a stage to dance and sing for the tourists.The entertainment is being organized by the Times Square Business Improvement District, the people responsible for making the area as welcoming to tourists as possible. Right now, the square is crowded and business is booming. So much so, in fact, that several sidewalks had to be widened recently to cope with the increase in visitors. Andsome New Yorkers are even pushing for the entire area to be off limits to traffic: modeling Times Square after a European plaza.It has not always been this way. Until a decade or so ago, Times Square had the well-deserved reputation of a seedy neighborhood teeming with prostitutes and drug dealers. A sizeable part of the area's economy came from stores selling pornography or cheap knock-off goods. The city government neglected the area, spending little of its tourism budget on improvements.But today, theaters, restaurants and upscale stores have replaced the sex shops. A thriving partnership between City Hall and private businesses, such as Disney Company, has revitalized Times Square.The current mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani, has made it a priority to clean up the area. Crime rates have declined and visitors feel a lot safer on the square. Part of that effort has involved the Times Square Business Improvement District and its President, Brendan Sexton.Mr. Sexton and his colleagues are launching a new line of Times Square clothing and accessories which, they hope, will compete with everything else on offer to visitors to New York. Instead of just passing through Times Square and stopping only to take a picture of all theflashing lights and neon signs, Mr. Sexton hopes tourists will stop and shop, and bring a little piece of the revitalized Times Square home with them.Part III Americans love chocolate Chocolate is one of the most popular holiday gifts. Gifts of chocolate molded into different shapes have become traditional on certain holidays. Chocolate bunnies and eggs are popular on Easter, chocolate coins on Hanukkah, snowmen and other holiday symbols on Christmas, and chocolate hearts or chocolate in heart-shaped boxes on Valentine's Day. Chocolate most commonly comes in dark, milk, and white varieties, with cocoa solids contributing to the brown color.Audioscript：Chocolate is as big a part of American culture as baseball and apple pie. But its roots run much deeper.Cheri Friedman knows how much America loves chocolate.She isco-owner of Kron Chocolatiers, a small, gourmet chocolate shop that opened 32 years ago in Washington, D.C."I think it's one of the best comfort foods there is. It's easy to eat. It melts in your mouth. There's a warm sensation. "Friedman says she takes pride in the fact that Kron's chocolates are made with the finest ingredients, right on the premises.Americans' love of chocolate has helped to make it a big business in this country. Mark Sesler is senior vice president of marketing at Russell Stover Candies, one of the largest manufacturers of chocolate in the United States.According to Sesler, the industry got its start in the early 1900s with small-scale chocolatiers such as Steven Whitman, and Claire and Russell Stover. They started with small stores -- much like Kron -- but soon expanded their business into broader markets -- thanks, Sesler notes, to an important technological advance."It's the advent of refrigeration that has really made the availability of chocolate very prevalent throughout the United States. I think chocolate has secured its place as a delectable treat for a number of societies and a number of countries. So I think we're just one of many countries who enjoy the delicacy that is chocolate."Susan Fussell is spokesperson for the National Confectioner's Association, a trade group that represents virtually everyone who's involved in the production and sale of candy in the United States.And why does Fussell think chocolate is so universally popular"Well there's really nothing like chocolate ... One of the main ingredients in chocolate is cocoa butter. And cocoa butter melts at body temperature. So when you put chocolate in your mouth, it has a mouth feel that's unlike any other food that you eat. It has thatmelt-in-your-mouth sensation right there on your tongue, and it is very hard to approximate that with any other food."Audioscript：Chocolate is as big a part of American culture as baseball and apple pie. But its roots run much deeper.Made from the seed of the tropical cacao tree, chocolate dates back at least 3 000 years to the ancient civilizations of Central and South America, where the cacao tree is native. The Aztec people valued the tree's cocoa beans so much, they used them as currency.In what is now Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, in the southwestern United States, new archaeological evidence shows that people were eating chocolate here more than 1 000 years ago.And they're still at it. Today, the average American eats almost 5 kilograms of chocolate each year.Cheri Friedman knows how much America loves chocolate. She isco-owner of Kron Chocolatiers, a small, gourmet chocolate shop that opened 32 years ago in Washington, D.C."I think it's one of the best comfort foods there is. It's easy to eat. It melts in your mouth. There's a warm sensation. "Friedman says she takes pride in the fact that Kron's chocolates are made with the finest ingredients, right on the premises.Americans' love of chocolate has helped to make it a big business in this country. Mark Sesler is senior vice president of marketing at Russell Stover Candies, one of the largest manufacturers of chocolate in the US.According to Sesler, the industry got its start in the early 1900s with small-scale chocolatiers such as Steven Whitman, and Claire and Russell Stover. They started with small stores -- much like Kron -- butsoon expanded their business into broader markets -- thanks, Sesler notes, to an important technological advance."It's the advent of refrigeration that has really made the availability of chocolate very prevalent throughout the United States. I think chocolate has secured its place as a delectable treat for a number of societies and a number of countries. So I think we're just one of many countries who enjoy the delicacy that is chocolate."Susan Fussell is spokesperson for the National Confectioner's Association, a trade group that represents virtually everyone who's involved in the production and sale of candy in the US.Fussell says that although the US is the largest total consumer of chocolate, it is not first in terms of per-capita consumption."In fact, we come in somewhere around No. 12, and that's because, of course, there are so many countries in Europe that have even more of an established culture around chocolate -- if you can imagine -- than we do in the United States."And why does Fussell think chocolate is so universally popular "Well there's really nothing like chocolate ... One of the main ingredients in chocolate is cocoa butter. And cocoa butter melts at bodytemperature. So when you put chocolate in your mouth, it has a mouth feel that's unlike any other food that you eat. It has thatmelt-in-your-mouth sensation right there on your tongue, and it is very hard to approximate that with any other food."But that melt-in-your-mouth sensation comes at a price. Chocolate as we know it today is made with lots of sugar and milk, both very high in calories. That's given chocolate a rather bad reputation among nutritionists.In recent years, however, research has proved that chocolate, particularly dark chocolate, is also naturally rich in cancer-fighting antioxidants -- a fact that chocolate manufacturers like Russell Stover are happily promoting.But no matter the preference, Fussell says when it comes to holidays, chocolate is king, especially on Valentine's Day, every February 14th. That's a day when people all across the country express their love for one another with gifts, flowers, cards and -- more often than not -- chocolates."Valentine's Day itself, February 14th, is the single largest sales day during the year for sales of boxed chocolates."Part IV More about the topic:BullfightingSpain has become internationally known for its bullfighting, a tradition that spawns debate in many parts of the world and within Spain itself. Fans of bullfighting claim that it is a culturally important tradition, while animal rights activists argue that it is a blood sport due to the suffering of bulls involved.Audioscript：Bullfighting is seen as a symbol of Spanish culture.It traces its roots to prehistoric worshiping and sacrificing of bulls.A carpenter's assistant from the town of Ronda, Spain, Francisco Romero invented the "muleta," or red cape, used to lure the bull past the matador's body. Legend has it Romero rescued a young nobleman by using his flat-brimmed Andalusian hat to lure away an irate bull. Thus was born the modern bullfight. He was the founding father of a bullfighting dynasty, fundamental for bullfighting history. He was apparently the inventor of several characteristics that started to be used in a key period for bullfighting when the modern on foot system was defined, as the use of the cape and sword to kill the bull face to face.The bullfight, known in Spain as the "corrida," was first launched as an official spectacle sport in 1133. at the coronation of King Alfonso VIII, and steadily gained in popularity through the years of the Reconquest of Moorish Spain.A typical Spanish bullfight requires six bulls and three matadors, and is divided into three parts. If the matador has done exceptionally well, the audience will give a standing ovation and throw hats and roses into the arena. The matador will also receive one or two severed ears and the tail of the bull, depending on the quality of his performance. Bullfighting has always been controversial in Spain. Supporters of bullfighting regard it as a deeply ingrained, integral part of their national culture, but it is criticized by animal rights activists as a pointless and cruel blood sport.In fact, bullfighting is not just a Spanish tradition; Portugal, Latin America and a few cities in southern France also have a history of bullfighting.Audioscript：Over 1000 people have demonstrated in Madrid to go for anend to bullfighting in Spain. Though small, the protest comes amid reneweddebate in the country about bullfighting, which many see as inhumane but others consider an integral part of Spanish culture.Carrying banners reading "Abolish bullfighting" and comments disparaging bullfighters, the coalition of animal rights activists and ecologists gathered in Madrid's central Puerta del Sol square. The Madrid regional government's decision to officially declare the sport part of Spain's cultural heritage has intensified opposition：Male protestor (voice of translator):"I feel very ashamed. I feel ashamed of being Spanish when I hear of these crimes, and people say this torture is culture. For me it is savage, more appropriate to other centuries."The centuries-old spectacle, whose ritual includes implanting barbed sticks into the bull before a matador kills it with a sword, draws thousands to the country's bullrings and, matadors receive celebrity media coverage. Many Spaniards reject accusations of cruelty: Madrid resident (in Spanish)This Madrid resident insists those who want to watch bullfighting should be allowed to continue doing so, as it is part of the nation's culture.But support for bullfighting varies across the country, with parliament in the autonomous Catalan region recently debating a possible ban, and a vote there on the issue is expected soon. In Spain's Canary Islands, the sport is already outlawed.Part V Do you know ...A name is a word or term used for identification. So a name can be given to a person, a place or a thing. But do names have meanings Many people tend to be unaware of the specificmeaning of a name unless it happens to be their own name. Many names originally had meanings, but you can't assume that that meaning was intended in any given case.Audioscript：An American town called Boring has voted in favour of pairing with a village by the name of Dull in Scotland.This means the two of them will participate in joint activities, such as the promotion of tourism and cultural exchange. Boring decided in favour of the move after being approached by the residents of Dull. But what's in a name Is Boring really tiresome and is Dull tedious Are these places in themselves humdrum and insipid or is it just their names which suggest they are drab The village of Dull consists of just one row of houses on the north side of a river valley, which means that it must be very peaceful but probably rather stale and monotonous for young people looking for exciting nightlife. It should also be said that the origin of the name Dull is from the Gaelic language, which was spoken in Scotland before the arrival of the English. Therefore it probably means "meadow" rather than mundane.Boring, on the other hand, was named after an early resident of the town, William H. Boring, though whether he was a wearisome fellow himself is not known. The town lies in the state of Oregon, about 30 kilometres from the city of Portland. Is it flat Not in a literal sense. Oregon is a mountainous state. And Boring's residents insist that the town is "The most exciting place to live". However, in comparison to Seattle, the biggest city in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, Boring must be at least a little lifeless.However exciting the communities may or may not be, they are both planning events to celebrate their pairing. The Dull andWeem Community Council intends to mark the partnership with a new road sign and street party.Part VII Watch and enjoyChinese cuisine is certainly a part of Chinese culture. In the following video clip, a woman will teach you how to cook a Chinese dish -- steamed sea bass. The steps of the cooking and the making of the sauce have been listed below. Arrange them in the correct order. The first ones have been done for you.Videoscript：In China it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true. And this is certainly a dream recipe. I want to cook you my steamed sea bass in a ginger, lime beer sauce, and it couldn't be simpler.Slice a few slits. One side, and then the other. And I'm going to keep the head on because in Chinese tradition, that is a sign of unity and balance. Next, slice some ginger. Just big enough so they fit into the slits of the fish. And this is going to impart a delicious, aromatic heat, and it's going to taste fantastic. And on the other side, so the ginger's gone into the slits. And now all we do is just place it on a heat-proof plate in the bamboo steamer. Before we steam the fish, I'm going to add a little bit of Shaoxing rice wine. So about a tablespoon. In Chinese cooking, Shaoxing rice wine is a classic seasoning for fish and meat dishes, adding bitter-sweet flavors. Next, lay some finely sliced spring onion on the fish. Steam over boiling water for seven to eight minutes until the fish is opaque. In Chinese culture, we try to balance opposite influences, known as Tin and Yang. They are the controlling elements in nature which should be balanced for a harmonious life. This dish, it's got those elements. The sea bass is very yin, and the ginger and rice wine which I have had a splash of that,they are very, very yang. This is the perfect balanced dish, and in Chinese cooking, we're always trying to achieve this perfect balance. Let's just check on the sea bass. The sea bass is lovely and it's cooked. You can see the meat has turned opaque, the eyes have turned white, and the flesh is lovely and flaky-ish. It just gives as you give it a slight poke.And for the sauce, finely grate some ginger. This is the hot, or yang to the fish's cool yin. For additional freshness, some zingy lime zest, two tablespoons should be about right. What we want to do now is get the wok nice and hot. And I'm just going to place the sea bass ... here. Just let that plate cool slightly. My special ingredient for this dish is Chinese beer. This is really going to add a delicious sweetness and really compliment the sea bass. If you can't get Chinese beer, then you can just use a light lager.So, wok lovely and hot, in with some groundnut oil, about a tablespoon or two. And then give this a good swirl. Then very, very quickly, in with the ginger. Before the ginger burns, put the fish carefully into the wok. Add a drop more rice wine or dry sherry, some light soy sauce。

No hard evidence exists to support that tale, but in any case, by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934, a Hollywood columnist used the name in his column.3. Walt Disney was honored with one full-size and seven miniature statuettes on behalf of his animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.1.T hey are possibly boyfriend and girlfriend.2.In a restaurant.3."It doesn't really matter, does it? I haven't got anything better to do, have I?""I've only been waiting for over an hour.That's all" "After all, my time isn't reallythat important, is it?" well, at least It waslucky you found a barrage to repair yourcar4. If the statuettes don't meet strict quality control standards, they are immediately cut in half and melted down.5.The large boxes are shipped to the Academy offices via air express, with no identifiable markings.The Oscar statuette, designed by MGM's* chief art director Cedric Gibbons, depicts* a knight holding a crusader's* sword, standing on a reel of film with five spokes, signifying the original branches of the Academy: Actors, Writers, Directors, Producers, and Technicians.Born in 1928, years would pass before the Academy Award of Merit was officially named "Oscar". Industry insiders and members of the press called the award "the Academy statuette", "the golden trophy" or "the statue of merit". The entertainment trade paper, Weekly Variety, even attempted to popularize "the iron man". The term never stuck.A popular story has been that an Academy librarian and eventual executive director, Margaret Herrick, thought the statuette resembled her uncle Oscar and said so, and that as a result the Academy staff began referring to it as Oscar.No hard evidence exists to support that tale, but in any case, by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934, Hollywood columnist Sidney Skolsky used the name in his column in reference to Katharine Hepburn's first Best Actress win. The Academy itself didn't use the nickname officially until 1939.Since its conception, the Oscar statuette has met exacting uniform standards - with a few notable exceptions. In the 1930s, juvenile players received miniature replicas* of the statuette; a ventriloquist* Edgar Bergen was presented with a wooden statuette with a moveable mouth; and Walt Disney was honored with one full-size and seven miniature statuettes on behalf of his animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Between 1942 and 1944, in support of the war effort, Oscars were made of plaster. After the War, winners turned in the temporary awards for golden Oscar statuettes.The traditional Oscar statuette, however, hasn't changed since the 1940s, when the base was made higher. In 1945, the base was changed from marble to metal and in 1949, Academy Award statuettes began to be numbered, starting with No. 501.Approximately 50 Oscars are made each year in Chicago by the manufacturer, R. S. Owens. If they don't meet strict quality control standards, the statuettes are immediately cut in half and melted down.Each award is individually packed into a Styrofoam* container slightlylarger than a shoebox.Eight of these are then packed into a larger cardboard box, and the large boxes are shipped to the Academy offices in Beverly Hills via air express, with no identifiable markings.On March 10, 2000, 55 Academy Awards mysteriously vanished en route from the Windy City* to the City of Angels. Nine days later, 52 of stolenstatuettes were discovered next to a Dumpster* in the Koreatown section of Los Angeles by Willie Fulgear, who was later invited by the Academy to attend the Oscar 2000 ceremonies as a special guest.For eight decades, the Oscars have survived war, weathered earthquakes, and even managed to escape unscathed* from common thieves. Since 1995, however, R. S. Owens has repaired more than 160 statuettes. "Maybe somebody used chemicals on them to polish them and the chemicals rubbed right through the lacquer* and into the gold," explains the company president. "Or maybe people stored them someplace where they corroded." Although he stresses that the statuette is made to endure, Siegel offers this sage advice to all Oscar winners: "If it gets dusty, simply wipe it with a soft dry cloth." Exercise A Pre-listening QuestionEvery January, the attention of the entertainment community and of film fans around the world turns to the upcoming Academy Awards, the highest honor in filmmaking. The annual presentation of the Oscars has become the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' most famous activity.

He says for now the focus is on implementing the new UN resolution that calls for a tough weapons inspection regime* and warns of consequences if Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein fails to comply*.Administration official say they expect the NATO summit to release a political statement backing the UN resolution. They say President Bush will bring up Iraq in his bilateral meetings in Prague*, but they also say they do not believe the Iraqi threat will be the focus of the summit.In Prague, the alliance plans to take steps toward the creation of a rapid deployment force that can playa role in combating terrorism.

This guy is a dictator and so we have to seewhat he says." The president says the Iraqi leader has a choice to make: disarm peacefully or be disarmed by force: "If Saddam Hussein does not comply to the detail of the resolution, we will lead a coalition to disarm him. It is over. We are through with negotiations. There is no more time. The man must disarm. He said he would disarm. He now must disarm." Mr. Bush spoke with reporters while touring the Washington D.C. police department, a tour designed to highlight his plan to create a cabinet level Department of Homeland Security. He left no doubt his patience regarding Iraq is wearing very thin*, stressing the United States will no longer tolerate any efforts by Saddam Hussein to circumvent* demands to disarm. Exercise BExercise ADirections: Listen to the news item and complete the summary.This news item is about the Bush administration's attitude towards Iraq. Directions: Listen to the news again and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).British Prime Minister Tony Blair delivered a radio address late Thursdayto the Iraqi people warning that Saddam Hussein must comply with UN demands or suffer the consequences.Prime Minister Blair said Saddam Hussein must cooperate with UN weapons inspectors, or be prepared to face military action. In an interview with Radio Monte Carlo's Arabic service Thursday, Mr. Blair said war could be avoided, if Iraq agreed to disarm."The situation is very clear. If Saddam Hussein agrees to disarm Iraq of all chemical, or biological or nuclear weapons programs and capability, then conflict would be avoided, and his duty is to cooperate fully with the inspectors to tell them exactly what material he has, to cooperate and comply with them in the eradication of that material."The prime minister said he wanted to speak directly to the Iraqi people to try to dispel* what he called myths that have arisen between Christians and Muslims. He said the dispute with Iraq is not about the West versus the East or about oil, but about weapons of mass destruction.Exercise ADirections: Listening to the news item and complete the summary.This news item is about British Prime Minister's stand on the Iraqi issue.Exercise BDirections: Listen to the news again and complete the following sentences.1.Prime Minister Blair warned that Saddam Hussein would suffer theconsequences unless he cooperated with the UN weapons inspectors.

The Security Council gave Iraq this last opportunity to disarm or face serious consequences, a euphemism* for possible war. The United States says it will make sure Iraq disarms, one way or another.But Mr. Blix* emphasizes that his inspectors will not determine the courseof events in the region. He says they will visit suspected sites, conduct interviews with Iraqi scientists, ferret* out information and report back to the Security Council for its members to decide.As for US and British intelligence reports, which the Bush administration says proves that Iraq has banned weapons, Mr. Blix says he is not going into Iraq with pre-conceived ideas of what is there.The next test for Iraq will be December 8th, the deadline for Iraq to present a full accounting of its weapons programs. If Iraq presents, in effect, a blank sheet, Mr. Blix says, he would expect the United States to put its evidence on the table, so it can be verified.Iraq has persistently maintained it does not have the banned weapons. The latest such assertion came in a letter to the UN this week, in which Baghdad accepted the latest Security Council resolution setting out the parameters* for what experts say will be the most intrusive inspections in Iraq, so far.After the preliminary technical work starting Monday, Mr. Blix says, he expects the first wave of inspections to start November 27th.
