新编大学英语视听说book3Unit4听力答案及文本1Unit 4Part OneListening IFor many of you this will be your last year at university and now is the time for you to begin thinking seriously about your future careers. In order to give you as much help as possible, I have quoted a list of questions that you ought to ask yourself.First, "Have I got a clear knowledge of my abilities as well as my interests?" Be honest about your weaknesses as well as your strengths. Take a really good look at yourself and give real thought to the kind of person you are, and what kind of person you want to be.Second, "Do I know the kinds of occupations in which people like myself tend to find success and satisfaction?" Talk to people who have similar abilities and interests and who are already in the careers that interest you. You can gain some idea of what they consider to be important and challenging in those careers. Watch these people at work.Third, "Have I weighed carefully the immediate advantages against the long-term prospects offered by the jobs I am considering?" Will the occupation you select give you satisfaction in the years to come? Realize now the importance of education in all fields, technical and professional. Remember that chances of promotion are usually given to educated persons—other things being equal.Fourth, "Have I talked with my parents, my teachers and my headmaster?" Remember they have a lot of experience that you can benefit from. They can help you think about the jobs. Theycan stimulate you to give careful thought to what you really want to do, and offer useful suggestions about how you might take full advantage of your personal qualities and qualifications.Last, "How do I regard my job? Is it just a means of getting money to do the things that I want to do? Is the work important to my future happiness? Is it a combination of both?"The above questions and their answers should give you some better ideas about how you should start planning your career. Your life-long job cannot be approached in any kind of haphazard fashion. It must be considered carefully, examined from every angle, and talked over with those who know you and those who can help you in any way.Exercise 12、4、5、6、8Exercise 21. weaknesses2. similar abilities and interests / interest you/ important and challenging3. education/ promotion/ educated persons4. parents/ teachers / benefit /give careful thought /useful suggestions / personal qualities5. getting money / our future happiness/ combinationListening II(Here's a dialog between a woman whose job is to help people find jobs and a man looking for a job.)Woman: Look. Here's a job that might interest you.Man: What is it? Are you sure? The last job interview you sent me off to was a disaster.Woman: Well, look. It says they want a sales manager, and it looks like it's a big international company. That'd be good. Youmight get to travel.Man: What kind of company is it, though?Woman: Um, let's see. Yes, it's a textile company that seems to import from abroad. They say the salary is really good. They operate a system of paying you a basic salary and then offering you a sales commission on top of that. They say it is high. And oh, look! They give you a car to travel round in. That's not bad, is it?Man: Um, do they say anything about experience?Woman: Um, let's see. No, they want someone young with ambition and enthusiasm. Oh yes, they want graduates, so that's OK. You've been to university. Now what else? Let's see.Man: There must be some catch.Woman: No, the only thing is you have to travel, but then that's what the company car's for. Oh, and you have to be able to get on well with other people because it says you have to be good on a team.Man: Um, perhaps I'll have a closer look at that one.Exercise 11. D2. D3. A4. BExercise 21. import from abroad2. sales manager3. salary4. sales commission5. travel in6. experience7. university8. on a teamListening IIIInterviewer: Some people feel that their jobs are misunderstood by others. Is that very common?Sociologist: Oh, absolutely. Most jobs or professions have an image or stereotype attached to them, and some of these are not realistic. The serious point is that young people choose their careers based on these false images, and they may even avoid certain careers which have a negative image. This can cause problems for the economy.Interviewer: Is there evidence of this problem?Sociologist: Yes, there was a recent survey of children's attitudes to different professions.Interviewer: How was this done? Children don't know much about jobs and professions.Sociologist: True. What the investigators wanted to get was children's impressions and prejudices. They gave the children twelve pairs of statements, one of the pair positive, and the other negative. Children were asked to say which of the statements was "most true" for each profession.Interviewer: For example?Sociologist: Well, for example, "Such and such a person is likely to be boring or interesting company."Interviewer: I see. What professions did they ask about?Sociologist: The list is long, but it included lawyers, economists, accountants, sales representatives, scientists and engineers.Interviewer: And the results?Sociologist: Well, they are striking, especially for engineerswho came out much worse than one might expect. About 90 percent of the children thought that engineering was a "dirty job", of "low status", and the engineer was more likely to take orders than to give them. The only other person they thought more likely to lose his job was the sales representative. But, there were good points too. Engineering was seen to be "interesting, well-paid work".Interviewer: Hmm, not a rosy picture.Sociologist: No, but it got better when children were asked what they thought of the engineer as a person. Most of them chose positive comments, but most thought the engineer was likely to be badly dressed.Interviewer: What about other professions? What were the most popular?Sociologist: Oh, the lawyers by far. Next came accountants and scientists as well as economists. The engineers and sales representatives were the least popular.Interviewer: Sounds like a sign of the times.Sociologist: Yes, but I think the most serious implication was the children's apparent ignorance of the importance of the engineer's role in society.Exercise 11. choose their careers2. avoid certain careers3.different professions4. impressions and prejudices5. lawyers6. accountants7. scientists8. most popular9. least popular 10. ignoranceExercise 21.

Megan: Fisherman! Why would you want to be a fisherman?Tim: Believe it or not, i’m really fascinated by the ocean. I like spending time in the ocean and I think if you go out on those boats and get away from the land, you really get in touch with the sea.Megan: Is it dangerous, though?Tim: Oh, it can be dangerous, for sure. You can get caught in storms. It can be rough sometimes.Megan: Do you get paid a lot of money?Tim: Not so much, but that is not necessarily vital. You know, you can work with nature. You can catch healthful food, provide for yourself, and I think that’s really fulfilling. How about you , Megan? What do you think would be a cool job?Megan: I think I would like to be a writer.Tim: Why is t hat? Lots of writers don’t succeed in making much of a living.Megan:Well, being a movie star would be exciting too, or a rock star, but the fame is overwhelming—too many peoplealways want to talk to you or want your autograph. I think as a writer, you are doing something you love without all that pressure or the media coming after you, and you can sort of make your own workk schedule and do it where you like. You can write in the countryside in a cabin, or you can write in the city wherever you please. So, I think it is a very flexible, rewarding job.Tim: Yeah, you’ve got to have the aptitude for it, though. Do you think you have what it takes?Megan: No, not yet. I’m a terrible writer. But anyway, if I could have my pick of jobs, I’d like to be a writer.Exercise 11. C2. A3. C4. B5.

Most of them are on the job 35 to 40 hours a week. Their typical day includes seven to eight hours of work. Usually, they have a 15-minute coffee break in the morning and in the afternoon. But work schedules vary from job to job.White-collar workers—office workers and manyprofessionals—usually have "nine to five" jobs. They begin at 9:00 a.m. and finish at 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. "Blue-collar" workers—mechanics, electricians, and laborers—often work from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. In many factories, blue-collar workers come to work in eight-hour shifts. Typically, these shifts start at 8:00 a.m., 4:00 p.m., and midnight. Finally, sales people and managers in retail stores work on Monday and Thursday nights, when the stores are open. Many retail workers also work on Saturdays, and some work on Sundays.These are the normal schedules for most American workers. However, many businesses now use a new system called "flex-time scheduling". Under this system, the employees choose their own working hours. Some people work from 8:00 to 4:00 five days a week. Some work from 9:00 to 5:00. Other people work 10 or 12 hours a day four days a week. Employees and managers are both happy with the system. The employees like the freedom of choice, so they work hard. The managers, of course, like the hard-working employees.What, then, is a typical work schedule? It depends on the job—and on the workers.Exercise:1. 100 million2. 35 to 403. 7 to 84. office workers, many professionals5. 8:00 to 4:006. eight-hour shifts7.

It's May now, isn't it? Yes, I joined last August in fact.Man: August in 1996.Woman: Yes.Man: What did you do before that?Woman: I used to work for a travel agency in London.Man: It was interesting, wasn't it?Woman: Not really. It was just secretarial work, rather like this job. And it wasn't too well-paid. But I took a secretarial course when I left school and I couldn't think what else to do.Man: So you went straight from school into a secretarial course, didn't you?Woman: Well, not quite. I left school when I was 16, in 1989, I think it was. And then I went to work in a hotel in Austria for a year, to learn some German.Man: Austria? Why Austria?Woman: I don't know really. Well, we used to go there on holiday quite often when we were younger, and, well, I like Austria actually. Anyway then I went back and did the secretarial course. That was a year's course.Man: And then you got the job at the travel agency I suppose.Woman: Yeah, that's right. That was in 1991.Man: So you were there for five years!Woman: Yes, it's awful, isn't it? Actually, I'm thinking of giving it all up to become a nurse.Man: Really?Woman: Well, I worked in a hospital in Twickenham during my last year at school. Just cleaning and helping to make bedsand so on. It was part of our Practical Careers training.Man: And you liked it?Woman: Yes, it was interesting.Exercise1. A2. D3. C4. A5. DListening IIIMan: Well, now then, one thing I'd like to ask is, er, exactly why you applied for the job. I mean, just looking at your application form, you're actually over-qualified...Woman: Yes, I thought you might ask that. Um, the thing is, in my present job, although I'm actually in charge of a small team and I have a lot of responsibility, it's largely a desk job with a lot of paperwork...Man: And you're not too keen on being stuck in an office all day?Woman: To be honest, no, I'm not. I much prefer being out on site where I can supervise things, and deal with problems as they occur. And this job should give me the kind of contact with other engineers, architects, builders and so on.Man: Mmm. You'd certainly have to do quite a lot of traveling in the local area, you know, visiting different sites. You do realize, though, that the starting salary isn't as good as the salary in your present job?Woman: Yes, I realize that, but um, it does say in the job advertisement that the promotion prospects are very good.Man: That's true, and er, as this is a new project that we'reworking on, we think there'll be a very good chance of fairly quick promotion, depending on performance, that is...Woman: Yes, of course. Well, you see, I've got very little chance of promotion in my present job.I mean it's a very small company and there's nowhere really for me to go; that's why I'm looking around for somewhere else.Exercise1. C2. B3. D4. C5. AListening IVDavid: Hi! You're listening to Radio Southwest, the best in the southwest for music andup-to-the-minute news. Sue's here. Hello, Sue.Sue: Hello, David.David: And we've got the Jobspot for you today. So, if you're looking for a new job, this could be the spot for you. So, let's have a look, and see what we've got today.Sue: Well, the first one we've got is a cook. That's in a large, busy restaurant, so it's very useful to have had experience in cooking. Must be a high school graduate and the pay is $12 an hour. So that's not bad, is it? The hours are good too. That's Monday to Friday, 3:00 p.m. till 6:00 p.m.David: Great. Thanks, Sue. So that's a cook. Now, how do you fancy working out of doors? How do you fancy being a gardener? So as long as you're fit and strong, and at least 16 years old, that'll suit you. The pay is $8 an hour. And the hours, Tuesday to Saturday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., you have to work on Sundayonce a month, but on Monday the Garden Center's closed. Now, the sort of work you'd be doing is potting, watering, things like that. So, how about applying for that? Pay, $8 an hour. Sue, what else have you got?Sue: Right, Dave. Well, from outdoors to indoors. We've got a word processor operator job here. This job might suit a woman with school-age children, because the hours are only 15 hours a week. It's a small, friendly office, and they require a high school graduate with two years' experience operating a computer. Pay is $9 per hour. So, there you go. That's a nice job in an office. If you fancy any of those jobs, give us a ring here on Jobspot at Radio Southwest. And now back to the music.Exercise 11. C2. A3. B4. D5. BExercise 21. ADF2. BF3. ACE。

新编大学英语视听说 book3 Unit 6听力答案与文本1Unit 6Part 1Listening IWoman: Why do you think people are afraid of tarantulasMan: Well, I guess it's because people are afraid of all spiders, and tarantulas happen to be the biggest of all the spiders. And maybe it's also because some spiders really are very poisonous. In California, for example—in most of the garages in California—you get black widows, which are quite small but certainly more dangerous than tarantulas. Woman: But personally you aren't afraid of tarantulasMan: Well, I shouldn't be frightened of tarantulas, simply because I know that they aren't really dangerous —all they can do is give you a small bite, but it's not poisonous. And yet I must say I don't like to pick them up. But you see, some people keep pet mice and pet rabbits and, well, they can give you a much worse bitethan a tarantula ever could. And yet people aren't frightened of them.Woman: Why do you think people are frightened of spidersMan: I don't know—it's very strange. People are frightened of spiders and they are frightened of snakes, and, well, obviously some spiders and some snakes really are poisonous. But most snakes are harmless, and it's really strange that people are so frightened of spiders because it's quite difficult to find a spider that's really dangerous.Exercise 11. B2. C3. D4.

It is said that there is a war going on. Both the cattle and the horses need the water and grass that is on the land.The president of the Nevada cattleman group also helps to protect the horses. He says that he does not like what is happening to the horses. He does want the government to help keep the number of horses low.Some people think the Navy used the wild horses for target practice.

The manager sees the girl with her dog.Manager: I congratulate you. You are right; your dog behaved very well. I've been watching him, and it's amazing how quiet he was.Girl: I told you that he's well trained and very intelligent.Manager: He certainly is.

新编大学英语视听说第3册听力原文和答案新编大学英语视听说第3册听力原文和答案Interviewer: Angela, you were born in Korea but you've been livingin Canada for a long time, haven't you?Angela: Yes, I was 10 years old when my parents immigrated to Canada and I've been living here for 20 years now.Interviewer: Do you think that belonging to two different cultures has affected your personality?Angela: Yes, definitely. There are times when I think that I havetwo personalities. Depending on where I am and who I'm with, I'm Korean or I'm Canadian. Interviewer: That sounds complicated. Could you explain what you mean?Angela: Well, growing up in Canada when I was going to high school, for example, I was known as Angela to the outside world, and as Sun-Kyung at home. I would wave hello to my teachers, but bow to my parents' Korean friends when they visited our home.Interviewer: Do different cultures have different ideas as to whatis polite? Angela: Yes, definitely. In high school, I was expected to look straight in the eyes of my teachers and to talk openly with them. But when Koreans spoke to me, I was expected to look at my feet and to be shy and silent.Interviewer: Do you think that having two personalities makes you a richer person? Angela: Yes, but sometimes I don't know who I am.I am a very sensitive person, and that's good to a point. I feel everyone should be able to feel or understand what others aregoing through. But when you hurt, cry, or are unhappy for people you don't know, or for a movie that is not real, then I think that's a little too sensitive. That's the way I am.I am a very independent person. I must do things for myself.I don't like people doing things for me, or helping me, or giving me things.It's not that I don't appreciate it, because I do. I just feel that when someone does something for you, you owe them, and if there is one thing I don't like to feel, it's that I owe anyone anything. I think I would be a good friend. I would do almost anything for someone I like, and would share or give anything I have. I'm very caring and understanding. People trust me with their secrets, and they're right for doing so because I never tell any secret that is told to me. I'm always there to help in any way that I can. All you have to do is ask. I enjoy life and people, which makes me feel good. I find fun in almost everything I do (except housework). I like to watch people, talk to them, and be around them. Itmakes no difference whether I agree or disagree with what they feel, or how they live, or what they look like, or what age they are. I just enjoy learning and being aware of everything and everyone around me.Tom: Hey, Bill. Do you have any plans for this weekend?Bill: Yeah, Tom. Cindy and I are going ice-skating on Saturday.Tom: Oh.Bill: Why do you ask?Tom: Well, I thought you might want to come over and study for next week's chemistry test.Bill: Study?! No way. Hey, what if I try to fix you up with Cindy's sister, Kristi. We could double-date. She's really outgoing,bright, and funny too.Tom: Hey, I still remember the girl you fixed me up with last time. She was very moody and self-centered. She couldn't stop talking about how great she was. I'm not sure if I can trust you, "Mr. Matchmaker".Bill: Oh come on. So I made a mistake last time. Cindy's sister is really different. Tom: Well, what does she look like?Bill: Ah. Looks aren't important. She has a wonderful personality.Tom: Right.Bill: Okay. She has long wavy blond hair and blue eyes. She's of medium height, just a little shorter than you are.Tom: Go on.Bill: She has a great figure, a nice complexion, and she has a sexy voice. Oh, and she has a tattoo of an eagle on her arm.Tom: A what?Bill: No, just kidding. By the way, she was the runner-up in theMiss California Beauty Pageant two years ago. Well, you're probably not interested. Tom: No, wait!Bill: Ah, just forget I ever mentioned it.Tom: No, I'm interested!David: Barbara, before you go, could you tell me about these students that are coming into my class?Barbara: Oh, yes. Now, let me think, well, there's...er...Paul. He's a tall, slim lad with fair hair. Very friendly face, lovely smile...He's particularly good with group activities, and he's a very helpful person to have in the class and very helpful with the other students. He speaks fluently, but does make a lot of mistakes! He doesn't seem to mind making mistakes. He asks a lot ofquestions...er...he tends to speak first and think later. But he's got lots of interesting ideas.David: Good.Barbara: Ah...Susan...Susan. Now, she's very lively, quick, and very bright. She talks all the time but not always in English.David: What? Is she difficult or anything?Barbara: No...she's quite young but she does behave in quite agrown-up way really for her age. It can be a bit difficult to actually shut her up sometimes and make her listen to you.David: Ah, right.Barbara: She's very nice. She has dark hair and dark eyes.David: Right, well...are there any other girls in the class?Barbara: Yes, there is Maria. She's Susan's sister.David: Yes.Barbara: Actually it's quite difficult to tell them apart although...er... Maria is slightly older. She's a bit plumper and has longer hair than Susan. She's not quite as bright as her sister and Ithink that makes her feel a bit inferior really. Well, you know, she sulks a bit when she gets things wrong or she misunderstands you. But on the whole, a very sensible girl.David: OK.Barbara: And then there's Peter, who's older than the others. He's got a sort of moustache, spectacles and wavy dark brown hair. He usually wears a jacket and sometimes a suit. He's very smart and takes notes all the time. He's also very serious and determined to learn as much as possible. He asks quite difficult questions but he doesn't mean to be nasty.David: Well, thanks, Barbara. It's all up to me now, isn't it?Have a good holiday, won't you?Barbara: Thanks.David: Bye.1. Pedro sleeps only six hours a night. He goes to school full-time and works part-time in the afternoons. At night he plays soccer or basketball. He's seldom tired and his favorite way to relax is to jog two or three miles.What kind of person is Pedro?2. Mr. Miller was teaching his fourth grade class how to divide. The students didn't understand. He had to repeat his lesson and explain the idea more slowly. Over the next few days he explained and explained the lesson until almost the whole class understood and knew how to divide.What kind of teacher is Mr. Miller?3. People in the High Street neighborhood don't buy their fruits and vegetables in the supermarket. They buy them from Mr. Smith's truck. You can trust Mr. Smith. He never tries to sell any bad or unripe fruit. His prices are fair.What kind of person is Mr. Smith?4. Jake and Charles ran into the classroom. Each one saw the chairhe wanted to sit on. Unfortunately, it was the same chair. They both sat down at the same time. Each of them had half a chair. Charles said he was there first and tried to push Jake off the chair. Jake said he was first. Both boys refused to move."All right, boys," said the teacher. "If you won't move, then youcan sit like that for the whole period." Jake and Charles sat like that for the whole period until the bell rang. When they stood up they were stiff and sore."I don't care," said Jake. "I was there first."What kind of person is Jake?5. Room 46A at Travis High School was always the dirtiest room inthe school. Many of the students threw paper on the floor. One day, Mrs. Duke had an idea. She fastened a basketball hoop over the wastebasket. Now the students love to practice throwing their paper into the basket. When they miss, they pick the paper up and try again. And that was the end of the problem.What kind of person is Mrs. Duke?A number of visitors to the UK, who had traveled throughout theBritish Isles, were asked by a newspaper reporter what their impressions of the British people were. Here's a brief summary of what they thought.There were many different opinions among those interviewed: Somewere very flattering, others very critical. The distinction between the English and the British wasn't always understood, but, on the whole, it seemed that the Scots were very popular with visitors. They were thought to be very friendly, even though one Dutch visitor confessed she'd found it hard to understand their English.A great number found the British generally reserved, particularlythe English, although one Australian visitor called the English "the friendliest people in the world and most hospitable". But she did admit that speaking the same language was a great help.Some Asian businessmen, who had traveled widely throughout England, said quite openly that they found Northcountry people "much nicer" than people in the South. When asked what exactly they meant by "much nicer", one of them said, with a playful smile on his face, "By much nicer I mean much more like us!" A few continentals praised "English courtesy", but the majority found it dishonest and dull. "You're forever saying 'please' and 'sorry' when you don't feel pleased or sorry," one explained.A young student from South Africa had no views on the matter. Hehadn't met any Englishmen, he said. The country appeared to be full of foreigners like himself. Statements:1. It was easy to tell the English from the British.2. Speaking the same language helped one Australian visitora lot.3. By "much nicer", one of the visitors meant that the British people were more friendly than people of other countries.4. The majority of continentals thought highly of English manners.5. To the young student from South Africa, Britain seemed to have a lot of foreign visitors.One day, when Mr. Smith came home from work, he found his wife very upset about something. Mr. Smith always thought that he was moresensible than his wife, so he started to give her a lecture on the importance of always remaining calm.Finally he said, "It's a waste of your strength to get excited about small things. Train yourself to be patient, like me. Now, look at thefly that has just landed on my nose. Am I getting excited or annoyed? Am I swearing or waving my arms around? No. I'm not.I'm perfectly calm."Just as he had said this, Mr. Smith started shouting. He jumped up and began to wave his arms around wildly and swear terribly. He couldn't speak for some time, but at last he was able to tell his wife: The thing on his nose was not a fly, but a bee. Tom: Oh, that Mr. Taylor. He is so boring!Mother: What do you mean?Tom: His lessons put me to sleep. And he's so quick-tempered, Mum.Mother: Quick-tempered? Mr. Taylor? Are you sure darling?Tom: Yes, he gets angry very quickly.Mother: That doesn't sound like Mr. T aylor at all!Tom: And do you know, he spends all the time looking at his reflection in the window, admiring himself.Mother: Really? And why does he do that?Tom: Because he's vain, that's why! And conceited! He thinks he knows everything. Mother: Oh, Tom. Be reasonable. I'm sure you're exaggerating. Mr. Taylor seems such a nice, kind man.Tom: Well, he isn't. He is mean and cruel.Mother: Cruel? Now how can a history teacher be cruel?Tom: Because he only gave me two out of ten points in my history test. Mother: Oh, now I understand. Tom, I think you'd better get on with your homework!(S1 = the first speaker; S2 = the second speaker; S3 = the third speaker; S4 = the fourth speaker)S1: In this week's edition of Up with People we went out into the streets andinterviewed a number of people. We asked a question they just didn't expect. Weasked them to be self-critical...to ask themselves exactly whatthey thought they lacked or—the other side of the coin—what virtues they had. Here is what we heard.S2: Well...I...I don't know really...it's not the sort of question you ask yourself directly. I know I'm good at my job... At least my boss considers me hard-working, conscientious, and efficient. I'm a secretaryby the way. When I look at myself in a mirror as you sometimes do in the privacy of your own bedroom...or at your reflection in the shop windows as you walk up the street... Well...then I see someone a bit different. Yes...I'm different in my private life. And that's probably my mainfault I should say... I suppose I'm not coherent in my behavior. Myoffice is always in order...but my flat! Well...you'd have to see it to believe it.S3: Well...I'm retired, you know. Used to be an army officer. And...I think I've kept myself...yes, I've kept myself respectable the whole of my life. I've tried to help those who depend on me. I've done my best. I am quite self-disciplined. Basically I'm a good guy, fond of my wife and family... That's me.S4: Well...when I was young I was very shy. At times I...I was very unhappy...especially when I was sent to boarding school at age seven.I didn't make close friends till later...till I was about...fifteen. Then I became quite good at being by myself. I had no one to rely on...and no one to ask for advice. That made me independent. My wife and I have two sons. We...we didn't want an only child because I felt...well I felt I'd missed a lot of things.Mike: Hey, guys. Come and look. I've found an interesting Web siteon star signs. (The others come close to the computer and look at thestar signs on the screen.)Ted: Hey, that's interesting! What's your sign, Sam?Sam: I'm a Scorpio. What's yours, Ted?Ted: I have no idea. I've never really thought about that. Let's have a look. I was born on September 5. Oh, I'm a Virgo.Simon: And I'm a Libra.Sam: What do they say about Libra, Simon?Simon: (He reads.) You're a sociable, charming person. You go out of your way to avoid confrontation and do everything in your power to make your life an easy one. Although you're generally likeable, you can be changeable, superficial and critical. But you manage to hide thosetraits most of the time.Mike: Do you agree with that? Are you that type of person?Simon: What do you think? I think there is something in what it says.I am social and outgoing. But I am not changeable, am I? What's your sign, Mike?Mike: I'm a Taurus. Ah, what's yours, Lilly?Lilly: I'm a Cancer.Ted: Now let's look at Taurus.( He reads.) You're a patient,practical type. Goodpoints include your affectionate, kind nature, your trustworthiness and strength of character. Bad points include your possessiveness, self-indulgence and stubbornness. Do you think your character fits well?Mike: No, not at all. I'm not patient, and I'm not practical either.I am kind of quick-tempered and ambitious. That's definitely not me! But one thing is right: I AM stubborn.Simon: Sam, let me read yours. (He reads.) You are secretive, and sexy. You have theworst reputation in the zodiac. Scorpio has a dark side, which includes revengeful and destructive traits. Yet despite this, you can be the wittiest, kindest and most entertaining of all the signs.Sam: Oh, that can't be true! Are you sure you were reading Scorpio?Simon: Yes, of course! Look for yourself.Sam: But that's unfair! I have the worst reputation in the zodiac?!The others: (They all laugh and say.) Ha ha... Poor Sam!Sam: Who could believe such silly things! Really, I think I'm intelligent, humorous, and kind-hearted.Mike: Yes, but those are just your good traits. Don't forget about your bad ones! Sam: Come on! Oh, Lilly, we haven't looked at your sign yet. Eh, you are a Cancer, right? You want me to read yours?Lilly: No, thanks. I'm afraid you'll distort what's written there.Let me read it myself. (She reads.) To some people, you appear tough and determined, but that's just a "front" you put up to protect the real you, which is rather more sensitive and softer. You can be moody, touchy and irritable, but you make up for those negative traits with your kindness, great intuition and protective nature. That's not bad, is it?Simon: No. But what counts is not what it says, but how you really are, what you are actually like.Lilly: (She is a bit defensive.) What do you mean? What are youtrying to say aboutme?Simon: I think you are much nicer than what it describes.(Lilly smiles.)The other boys: Oh, Simon, don't sweet-talk her! We know what youare thinking. Ted: Hey, I haven't seen mine yet. Now it's my turn.Mike: Go ahead, Ted! Be our guest!Ted: It says: Virgo people like order in all things and are neat, clean and precise in their habits. Virgo people are perfectionists and they sometimes can be critical. They do not like to draw attention to themselves. Virgo people are modest, and careful about what they eat or drink.Sam: Do you have any objections to that?Ted: I think the description matches me quite well. I AM a perfectionist. I like things to be in order. Erm, I...I'm careful about what I eat and drink. But it doesn't mention my weak points.Lilly: Oh! And what are those?Ted: Well, sometimes I'm so careful I tend to waste a lot of time.I'm not very sociable, and I don't have many friends.Sam: I think everyone has some undesirable personality traits that could be improved. Don't you think we all could improve our personalities?Mike: I think we can. For example, my little sister was the youngest girl in our family. My parents loved her very much, but they spoiled her by giving her too much. She was at that time self-centered, selfish,aggressive, bad-tempered, and rude. Her personality didn'tchange any until she entered primary school. In school, she first acted as she did at home, and she couldn't make a single good friend. For a time, she was even isolated by her classmates. She complained to us, and finally understood her problem. From then on, she made every effort to get rid of her undesirable characteristics both at home and in school. Now she's in middle school and has turned into a popular girl.Lilly: In my opinion, our personalities are partly inherited and partly shaped by our home environment. As we all know, scientists have found that parents' personality traits can be seen in their children. Most children have some of their parents' personality traits.Mike: That's right. And our early home and school environment also has a big influence on the shaping of our personality. For instance,I've noticed that many children growing up in rich families may become wasteful, lazy, arrogant or cold. On the other hand, I've noticed that many children raised in poor families are hard-working, caring, sympathetic, and helpful.Sam: Does that mean you think we have to choose our parents wisely?(The others laugh.)2Mart Moody from Tupper Lake used to tell this tale. "I went out one day and there was a big flock of ducks out on Tupper Lake. And I hadthis good dog. I shot at the ducks, and then I sent the dog out there. She was heavy with pups at the time, and I didn't know whether I shouldsend her out there. It was a cold day in the fall. Well, she tookright off and away she went. But she didn't show up when it got dark. I began to worry about her. She was a good dog, a really good retriever. She'd get anything I shot at."So the next morning I woke up and I thought I'd better go and seeif I could find her. And I got down to the shoreline of the lake and I looked out. Suddenly I saw something coming. It was this dog. She came into the shore! She had three ducks in her mouth. And behind her she had seven pups. And each of the pups had a duck in his mouth."There was an old man who had a daughter. He told his daughter thathe had invited a preacher to his house. He said, "Daughter, I'm going down to the train to meet the Reverend, and I've roasted two ducks and left them there for him in the other room. Don't you touch them!" The daughter said, "No, I won't touch them." So her papa went to the train to meet the Reverend, and the girl began to taste the ducks. The ducks tasted so good that she kept on tasting them until she had eaten themall up, every bit of them.After the old man came back, he didn't even look in the place where he had left the ducks. He went directly into the other room to sharpen his knife on the oilstone so he could carve the ducks. The preacher was sitting in the room with the girl. She knew that her papa was going to punish her, and she started crying and shedding tears. The preacher asked, "What is the matter with you, girl?" She said, "Papa has this one bad fault: He invites preachers to his house and goes to sharpen hisknife to cut off both their ears." And the Reverend asked, "What is that you say, daughter?" The girl said, "Yes, Papa invitespreachers here all the time and cuts off both their ears." The preacher said, "Daughter, hand me my hat. Quick!" The girl gave him his hat and he ran out of the door quickly. The daughter called her papa and said, "Papa, the preacher got both the ducks and has gone." The old man ran to the door and yelled to the preacher, "Hey, where are you going in such a hurry? Come back here right now!" But the preacher just kept running and shouted back over his shoulder, "Damned if you'll get either one of these."Jack Storm was the local barrel maker and blacksmith of Thebes, Illinois. He had a cat that stayed around his shop. The cat was the best mouse catcher in the whole country, Jack said. He kept the shop free of rats and mice. But, one day, the cat got caught in a piece of machinery and got a paw cut off. After that, he began to grow weak and thin and didn't take any interest in anything, because he wasn't getting enough to eat.So, one day, Jack decided to make a wooden paw for the cat. He made it with his pocket knife and fastened it on the injured leg. After that, the cat began to grow sleek and fat again. Jack decided to stay at the shop one night to see how the cat managed with his wooden paw.After dark, the cat got down in front of a mouse hole and waited. Pretty soon a mouse peered out cautiously. Quick as a flash the cat seized it with his good paw and knocked it on the head with his woodenone. In no time, that cat had eighteen mice piled up in front of the mouse hole.Ken: Hey, Josh. Where did you get those comic magazines?Josh: When I went home last weekend, I found these old Superman magazines that my older brother had bought manyyears ago.Ken: You don't have time to read old comics. Why did you bring them here? Josh: In my World Literature class we've been talking about the importance of myths, folk tales, and legends to cultures. We have to write a short paper on which legendary figure we think is the great American hero. I think it's Superman.Ken: Superman? Why? I think it's someone like Paul Bunyan, the giant woodsman, or Johnny Appleseed, who planted early apple trees in the Midwest. Superman is just a modern comic magazine character.Josh: When I saw these old comics, I started thinking that Superman represents a combination of cultural traditions and beliefs that have been told throughout our American history.Ken: How?Josh: Superman is an orphan who comes by rocket to Earth when his native planet explodes. He lands near a small town and is adopted by Jonathan and Martha Kent, who teach him their American middle-class values of honesty, hard work and consideration for others. As an adult, he migrates to a large city and defends Americans against evil.Ken: What else?Josh: Well, I was thinking about this and realized that he is a symbol of the American character because he is an immigrant. We Americans have come from somewhere else, too. My great grandparents came from Germany, and I know your grandparents came from Brazil. They all worked hard and succeeded.Ken: But how does that relate to Superman?Josh: He goes to the city, just as many immigrants did, works as a newspaper reporter. But his adopted parents' values ofhonesty, hard work and helpfulness are a part of him. He uses his super abilities to fight dishonesty and to help the victims of crime and injustice, meanwhile working hard at his newspaper job.Ken: I understand. As an orphan, Superman becomes a new person in a new land, just as our ancestors did, and succeeds. He also represents our values. Your paper should be interesting. I'd like to read it when it's finished.Josh: OK.At one time animals and people lived together in peace and talked with each other. But when mankind began to multiply rapidly, the animals were crowded into forests and deserts.Man began to destroy many animals for their skins and furs insteadof only for food. Animals became angry at this treatment by man and decided that mankind must be punished.The animals held a meeting, but they could not decide how to punish mankind. Finally the animals agreed that because deer were the animals most often killed by man, deer should decide how man should be punished.Deer decided that any Indian hunters who killed deer without asking pardon in a suitable manner would be made to suffer with painfulstiffness in their bodies. After this decision was made, the leader of the deer sent a message to the nearest people, the Cherokee Indians. "From now on, your hunters must first offer a prayer to the deer before killing him. You must ask his pardon, telling the deer you are forced to kill him only because your people are hungry and need meat. Otherwise, a terrible disease will come to you."The spirits of the deer would run to the place where a deerhad been killed and these spirits would ask the dead deer, "Did you hear the hunter's prayer for pardon?" If theanswer was "yes", the spirits would be satisfied. But, if the answer was "no", then the deer spirits would track down the hunter to his house and strike him with the terrible disease of stiffness in his body, making him crippled so that he could not hunt deer again.Soon all of the animals agreed that this was a fair and just punishment. Each type of animal decided that they would also cause a disease in people who mistreated them. When the friendly plants of the world heard what the animals had decided as punishment for mankind, the plants decided that this punishment was too harsh. They had a meeting of their own. Finally they decided that each type of plant should provide a。
