When you get to the part where I‟m expected to promise to …love, respect and obey her,‟…giving up all others,‟ and …be true to her forever,‟ I‟d be happy if you‟d just leave that part out.” He gave the minister the cash and walked away with a light heart. The wedding day arrived, and the bride and groom reached that part of the ceremony where they would make vows to each other. When it was time for the groom‟s vows, the minister looked the young man in the eye and said, “Will you promise to kneel before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and make a vow before God and your lovely wife that you will never even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?”The groom was shocked, but in spite of himself, he said in a low voice, “Yes, I will.” Then the groom whispered to the minister, “I thought we had a deal.” The minister put the $100 into his hand and whispered back, “She made me a much better offer.”1.F2.F3.T4.T5.FTask 3: Long Distance FriendshipsAmerican weddings are not always the same. I‟d like to show you pictures of my wedding. When we got engaged, an announcement was published in the newspaper. The announcement typically includes the names of the bride, the bridegroom and their parents and the wedding is expected to be held. About a month before the wedding, we sent out wedding invitations to relatives and friends. This is the church where we had the wedding. My father gave me to my future husband. Then the minister started the wedding ceremony. He greeted the guests, and talked about the meaning of marriage. Next, we exchanged vows and gave each other rings. This is the main part of the wedding. After the vows, the minister prayed for us. Then the minister declared us husband and wife, and we kissed each other. Here is my sister, who was a bridesmaid. This is the bouquet I carried. Traditionally, the unmarried women gather after the wedding, and the bride throws her bouquet to them. The one who catches it will, according to tradition, be the next one to get married. At the reception, we cut the wedding cake and fed each other bites of the cake. Then we toasted each other with champagne. Finally the reception was over, and the minister signed the marriage certificate and we were legally married.1. A2.B3.C4.D1-3-7-5-4-2-6IV.

Casual dating usually begins in the early teens, and in the late teens a pattern of steady dating develops. There is a great possibility that one goes to a dance with one person, to a football game with another, and to a picnic with a third. Sometimes two couples go out together. This is known as “double dating.”Group dating is also popular among young people. Large groups of boys and girls may go around together. Young people may go out together for a long time, which is, in effect, a public statement of their intention to marry. Men and women go out together a great deal, especially those in cities. This is “adult dating.”They ski together, dine together, either at restaurants or in each other‟s homes. The American dating system is a rather casual one. Often young Americans who hardly know each other go out on dates. It is also acceptable for them to arrange a “blind date”, that is, a date between two young people who have not met before.Dating DescriptionCausal dating Early teensSteady dating Late teensMany partners e.g. a dance, a game, a picnicDouble dating Two couplesGroup dating Large groupsGo out for a long period Intention to marryAdult dating Men and women.e.g.ski, work, dine together Casual dating system Those who hardly know each otherBlind dating Those who have never met beforeVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Finding the Right Type of GirlKeith: Hey, Peter! You‟ve been in the room all night. Get out and dance with someone like that babe over there.Peter: No way, Keith! She‟s the intellectual type. My pickup line just won‟t work with her. Keith: Oh, come on, man! What kind of girl do you like?Peter: I want a girl that gentle and mild, and that babe is not the right type.Keith: Times are changing, and you‟ll never find a woman that will shine your shoes and fill your beer mug all the time. Wake up.Peter: Oh really? I still prefer women that stay home, cook, clean, and take care of the kids. Keith: Okay, then what will you do after you get home from work?Peter: Hmm. Eat, watch TV, and throw our the trash.Keith: Wit, wait, wait. I can‟t believe my ears. You‟ll never find a wife.1.B2.D3.C4.ATask 2: He thinks I‟m God.A young woman brings home her fiancé to meet her parents. After dinner, her mother tells her father to find out about the young man‟s plans. The father invites the fiancéto his study for a drink.“So what are your plans?” the father asks the young man.“I am a Bible student,” he replies.“A Bible student. Hmm.” The father says. “Good, but what will you do to provide my daughter with a nice house such as she‟s accustomed to?”“I will study,”: the young man replies, “and God will provide for us.”“And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring such as she deserves?” asks the father. “I will concentrate on my studies,” the Youngman replies, “and God will provide for us.”“And children?” asks the father. “How will you support children?”“Don‟t worry, sir. God will provide,” replies the fiancé.The conversation goes on like this, and each time the father questions him, the young man insists that God will provide. Later, the mother asks, “How did it go, honey?”The father answers, “He had no job and no plans, but the good news is he thinks I‟m God.”1.F2.T3.F4.T5.TTask 3: LadyLady, I‟m your knight in shining armor and I love you.You have made me what I am and I am yours.My love, there‟s so many ways I want to say I love you.Let me hold you in my arms forever more.You have gone and made me such a fool;I‟m so lost in your love.And on, we belong together.Won‟t you believe in my song?Lady, for so many years I thought I‟d never find you.You have some into my life and made me whole.Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning.Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear.In my eyes I see no one else but you.There‟s no other love like our love.And yes, oh yes, I‟ll always want you near me.I‟ve wanted for you so long.Lady, your love‟s the only love I needAnd beside me is where I want you to be.…Cause, my love, there‟s something I want you to know,You‟re the love of my life, you‟re my lady.SpeakingMutual LoveJill: You know, Robert, we‟ve been dating a long time now.Robert: Yeah.

Listening InTask 1: A PictureI have a picture that sits on my desk in my bedroom. When I have trouble studying, or I’m worried about an exam, I just take a look at it. It is a picture of my best friends taken years ago when we were in high school. It reminds me of the good time we’ve shared and the support their friendship still gives me today. Even though our lives have gone in different directions, the bond we created has kept us close. Every week I get a message on my answering machine from one of them, or a letter in the mail with the latest news or vacation photos. I often get e-mail with a joke for the day, or words of comfort about some problems in my life. My friends have shown up for surprise birthday parties, and one of them even traveled two hours from the other end of town just to watch my first English speech contest. Our friendship has carried me through a lot of difficult experiences, and has enriched the good ones. It is the kind of friendship that outlasts disagreements, changes, and separation.1.C2.A3.D4.B5.BTask 2: Problem of Meeting PeopleAs a foreign student, I have a number of problems, both academically and socially. The biggestone is meeting people. I feel confident about my ability to cope with problems from my studies, but I’m not comfortable making friends with other students, especially local ones. Perhaps I’m worrying unnecessarily, but I find it difficult to talk to them and to make friends. The primary reasons is the language barrier. My English is quite standard and forma, and although that helps me with my academic work, I have trouble understanding other students when they are just talking. It seems to me that in order to meet with other students I really need informal, colloquial English. Besides, there’s the cultural gap. That’s why it’s so difficult for overseas students and native English speaking students to really get to know each other. I really want to overcome this difficulty. I guess the best way to begin is to start talking about course work that we share; and then I could suggest going for a cup of tea or coffee. Over coffee we could get to know each other. Another way would be to join a club, like a tennis club or a photo club, because that immediately gives you something in common with other people there. It gives you a starting point to build on.1.He has both academic and social problems.2.He fells confident about his ability to cope with his studies.3.The language barrier is the main reason why he finds it hard to make friends with localstudents.4.It is difficult for overseas students and native English speaking students to really get to knoweach other because there is the cultural gap.5.Te best way for the overseas students to actually overcome the difficulty of making friendswith native English speaking students is to start talking about course work.Task 3: Long Distance FriendshipsI have quite a few long distance friendships. How do I maintains these relationships? Well, I believe friendship is very important, But I also think friendship really needs tending—like plants in the garden. It’s important to keep up to date with my friends, something that’s hard to do with long distances between us. But over the years I have managed to stay very tight with my friends, even though distances separate us. Jane lives in another city, and she’s not much for writing letters, so we talk on the phone at least once a week, usually for an hour at a time. We take turns calling each other, so I stay close to her through the phone. My phone bills are high, but I consider them just another living expense, like rent. Other friends I e-mail. I have one friend who just isn’t into writing letters. I’ve known her for a long time. We’ve always considered ourselves friends, but over time I’ve always been in and out of touch with her. But she is always on-line—e-mail is her thing. Since I’ve gotten an e-mail address, I e-mail her twice a week. Now, I’m back in good touch with her. She’ll often sit down and write me e-mail, but she just wouldn’t do it with pen and paper. E-mail’s really a great way to keep in touch with friends.1.maintain2.tending3.date4.phone5.turns6.bills7.expenses8.e-mail 10.touchTask 4: An Announcement1.The Student Friendship Association2.outing3.school gate4.6:405.7 sharp6.on timeIV.

She’s in hospital.Susan: I hope she’ll be fine.Sarah: So do I.V. Let’s TalkJack: Hi, I’ve been looking for you since the morning. I couldn’t find you anywhere.Jane: Yeah. I don’t feel like hanging out with the crowd any more, especially since Susan stopped coming to school.Jack: I know. It’s such a pity about her parents: losing one parent is bad enough, but losing them both on the same day and in such an accident…It’s terrible! Have you seen her since? Jane: No. I tired talking to her on the phone. She sounded bad.Jack: The other day, I talked to Mr. Smith—you know that tall guy who works in the Dean’s Office. Apparently, Susan is thinking of dropping out of school. She has almost money, you know. Her parents didn’t have much savings.Jane: Yeah. I’ve been quite worried about her. But simply feelings sorry for her is not enough; we have to think of some way to help her. Have any suggestions?Jack: Well, I haven’t really thought about it. I could possibly give her some money. I’ve saved up from my part-time job.Jane: Wow. You’re so generous! But…that wouldn’t be a long-term solution.Jack: That’s true…Perhaps we could help her find a part-time job.Jane: Good idea! The lady who runs the shop where I work at night could be helpful. If Susan is interested, I can introduce her to the lady.Jack: Great! Once she gets a regular income, things will be better. More than anything else, it will take her mind off her tragedy.Jane: Hmm…I was wondering, could we organize a fund-raiser for her?Jack: Well, I’m not so sure how that would work. You know, taking help from us, her best friends, is one thing, but getting the whole school involved may not be a good idea.Jane: Yeah. You’re right. We’ll think of something else. In the meantime let’s go ahead with what we’ve planned. (Looking at her watch) Oh! It’s five to two. I have a class. I gotta run. Let’s meet tonight.

Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Worry of a TeacherSusan Smith cared for her students very much, and they all liked her. She wanted them to learn and to be happy. She had a special relationship with one student, Doris. Doris had been to Susan’s house several times and had come to know her husband and children. Lately, Susan had been very worried about Doris because the student’s hometown had recently been hit by a strong earthquake. Susan observed that Doris had lost a lot of weight and often had dark circles under her eyes. She talked to Doris and was as helpful as she could be, but felt that Doris really should see a doctor. One day, Susan talked to Doris and suggested that she go to the health center to talk to one of the doctors. Doris’ face became very red. She said, “I don’t need a doctor. How could you make a suggestion like that? I thought you were my friend!” Susan was very surprised by Doris’ reaction. She said, “I’m sorry to have upset you. I just want to help.” After that conversation, Doris stopped talking to Susan. She also transferred out of her class.1. learn happy2. earthquake3. weight dark circles4. the health center turned red5. surprised talking transferredTask 2: How to build lifelong friendship?You may have a lot of friends and expect your friendships to last a lifetime. However, lifelong friendships are not always what everybody can get. Friends sometimes misunderstand each other. For one thing, you may want your friends to be near at hand, but also you need your independence and privacy. For example, when one of your friends comes asking if it is all right to spend the evening in your house, sometimes you just say “no” to hi or her because it is nor convenient for you. Unfortunately, not all your friends understand this type of independence. They believe that friends can ask for any favor and the answer should always be “yes”. Also, misunderstanding sometimes occurs when you ask for help. You expect your friends to help you mo matter what the circumstances are. But the fact is, your friends may not always drop everything to satisfy each of your needs. This may make you angry with them and your friendship could fade. The most important thing for you and your friends to do is to always show understanding and respect for each other.1.T2.F3.F4.T5.TTask 3: At Your SideWhen the daylight’s gone and you’re on your own,And you need a friend just to be around.I will comfort you; I will take your hands.And I’ll pull you through, I will understand.And you know that I’ll be at your side.There’s no need to worry.Together we’ll survive through the haste and hurry.I’ll be at your side.If you feel like you’re alone, and you’ve nowhere to turn, I’ll be at your side.If life’s standing still and your soul’s confused,And you cannot find what road to choose.If you make mistakes,You can’t let me down.I will still believe,I will turn around…。

The manager sent you these roses and his best wishes to you both for a happy anniversary.W: Thank you. We like the room and service here, and we especially appreciate the manager's consideration.Q: What can we learn from the conversation?Key: AQuestion 3W: While I'm scrambling the eggs, could you put the flour into the bowl?M: You bet, darling.

If you'd listened to me and used the Internet, you'd have a husband by now. W2: I did use the Internet. I posted an ad that read "Husband Wanted". There were dozens of e-mail responses. But they all said pretty much the same thing: You can have mine.Q: What can we infer from the conversation?Key DIII. Listening InTask 1: Reasons for a DivorceW: I'm divorcing my husband.M: How long have you been married?W: Thirteen years.M: Do you have children?W: Yes, and I have to protect them from any more harm from my husband's irresponsibility.M: So, what are your grounds for divorce?W: Well, first of all, he keeps changing jobs. We've had to move four times in thirteen years!M: And, you believe that will be good grounds for divorce?W: I do have a fight to stability for my children and myself, don't I?M: Aren't they his children, too?W: But my husband isn't fulfilling his duties!M: Is he paying the bills?W: Well, yes, but we just live around the poverty line. Our kids are being teased by other kids at school because we can't dress them in good clothes! We have to live in a small apartment and drive an old car!M: Does the car run?W: Yes, but, it looks OLD!M: Do you yell at him and call him names?W: Well, he yells at me!M: So, those are the reasons to not honor your husband. Are you going to give him joint custody in this divorce?W: No, just visitation fights.M: Why?W: Because the law permits me to.M: And, what about the financial demands of this divorce?W: I'm demanding half of all we have, which isn't much, and large support payments.Key: After thirteen years of marriage, the woman wants to divorce her husband, claiming that he is irresponsible. When asked for the specific grounds for divorce, she gives these reasons: First, he keeps changing jobs, and the family has had to move four times in thirteen years, but she wants stability for her children and herself. Second, although he is paying the bills, they just live around the poverty line. Her children are being teased by other children for not dressing in good clothes.Also, they have to live in a small apartment and drive an old car, though it still runs. Worse still, the husband yells at her, though she admits she also yells at him and calls him names. As for the divorce arrangements, the woman will give the husband only visitation fights instead of joint custody. Moreover, the woman will demand half of all they have and large support payments. Task 2: What four-letter words?Dorothy was the only child of her family, born when her parents were middle-aged. They spoiled her badly. At the age of 33 she still lived at home. Her mother and father treated her like a princess. She seemed perfectly content with that situation, so her friends were surprised when she announced she would soon get married. People who knew her well said the marriage wouldn't last long. But for the present, she and her new husband appeared happy.As soon as the newly married couple returned from their honeymoon, the bride called her mother."How did everything go?" her mother asked."Oh, Mom," she began, "the honeymoon was lovely! So romantic! We had a wonderful time. But on our way back, Bob started using really terrible language. Stuff I'd never heard before. Really awful four-letter words. Y ou've got to come get me and take me home. Please, Morn!" the new bride sobbed over the telephone."But, honey," the mother asked, "What four-letter words?""I can't tell you, Mom. They're too awful! Come get me, please!""Darling, you must tell me what has upset you so much. Tell me what four-letter words he used."Still sobbing, the bride said, "Mom, words like dust, wash, iron, and cook."F 1. Dorothy's husband treated her badly.T 2. Dorothy did not get married until she was in her 30s.F 3. Dorothy enjoyed the honeymoon from the beginning to the very end.F 4. Dorothy cried because her husband swore at her.T 5. Dorothy wanted her mother to take her home.For Reference1. Words like dust, wash, iron, cook.2. She did not want to do housework.Task 3: A Woman who Chose Not to RemarryAfter 17 years of marriage, my husband left me for my best friend, Monica. What I had feared most became a reality: I became the single parent of two young children. My daughters grew increasingly unhappy. Seven-year-old Joanna had anxiety attacks whenever she was left alone for more than a few minutes. Five-year-old Sophie would vomit after every meal. Under the psychological pressure, I thought about remarriage. My friends arranged dinners with single men and invited me to parties to meet the latest "someone special".But later I changed my mind. A colleague of mine said, "Second marriages usually end in divorce, and children are destroyed by it." There is some truth in his words. Research published in 2004 showed that children in blended families were no more emotionally healthy than those in single-parent families.Not long ago, my now-teenage daughters and I went to lunch at our favorite Italian restaurant. While eating, we talked about a friend of ours who was divorcing her second husband. We were worried about how the break would harm her three children, two of whom were struggling to get free of drugs. Joanna put down her fork and looked at me. "Mom, I'm glad you didn't remarry," she said. "If you had divorced again, I might have tried drugs or even considered suicide." At that moment, I realized, once again, that singleness was the fight choice for me.Questions:1. What was the speaker most afraid of?C) She would become a single parent.2. Which of the following is NOT true?A) The two daughters liked to stay alone.3. What did the speaker's colleague say?B) Children are harmed in their parents' remarriage.4. Which of the following is true?B) Children in blended families feel no better than in single-parent families.5. If the speaker had divorced again, what might her daughter, Joanna, have done?B) She might have killed herself.For ReferenceSingleness was the right choice for her (She was right in choosing to remain single)IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1 Is youth wasted on the young?Amy: I'd like to talk to you, so stop what you're doing for a minute.Bill: What is it, Amy? I'm having a hectic time working on this report for tomorrow's meeting.

If I leave my job for more than two weeks, I'll lose it forever.B: I know you will. But remember, if we don't have one now, it'll be too late.

But I really like my job.What's more, I'm very close to getting a promotion.B: But a baby borne by a woman in her 30s may be physically and intellectually less healthy. If we wanted to hold onto your job, we would wait forever. Soon we'll be too old to enjoy a baby.A: You really have a good point. I'll choose the baby over the job.B: Good. I'll try harder to make both ends meet.MODEL 2 So Many people in the United States get divorce!Kim: Hi Amy.Amy: Hi! Look at this headline, Kim.Kim: Wow! So many people in the United States get divorced!Amy: But this is not uncommon in the West.

In my country, some marriages break up, but most couples stay together. Amy: Do people get married young?Kim: Not really. Not many people get married before the age of 20.Amy: Hmm.

This might be her last Christmas.Amy: She's been ill, but don't exaggerate. You just don't like my mother. That's why you don't want to go to my parents.Bill: She's never liked me. Never thought I was good enough for you.Amy: Well, you're not... But seriously, Mom's not so bad. She's just got a thick skin and likes to hide her feelings.Bill: I don't think so.Amy: Why not have both our families here for Christmas?Bill: That would make twenty-two of us if we invited everybody.Amy: Why not just have both our parents here for Christmas?Bill: Good idea.

Let’s TalkProblem with our educational systemIf you want me to tell you why I remarried, here's my story.Remarrying was the last thing I'd consider for two years after my divorce. I had heard about the high rate of remarriage failures. More importantly, I wondered how. remarrying would affect my 10-year-old son. My heart ached when I saw my son draw a picture of himself, my ex-wife and me holding hands, with sadness on our faces.Since my parents have married and divorced eight times altogether, I hoped my son would not have to go through the same pain I had experienced. As a result, my primary focus after the divorce was my relationship with my son John, not finding a wife.As time went by, my son gradually grew up, and he became conscious of my loneliness and anxiety. One day he asked me to consider dating. The first time he said this, I ignored him. The second time he brought it up, I reconsidered my reservations about dating. I began to date Maria. As our relationship developed over the following year, I was concerned about how my son would actually respond to her. At first, John's affection for Maria was lukewarm.For instance, he would hug her, but the act seemed mechanical. But after several months, he warmed up to her.Seeing that the time was ripe, I asked Maria to marry me. She accepted, so our family of two smoothly became a family of three. Thinking back, I believe my remarrying was the right choice.Some single-parents are still hesitant about remarrying. Now that you've heard my story, I hope you won't hesitate and let golden opportunities slip through your fingers.Key:Changes in the speaker’s Attitude to Remarriage Reasons or Detailed DescriptionsFor two years after my divorce, remarriage was the last word I'd consider. 1. High rate of remarriage failures.2. Remarriage would affect my son.1) He drew a picture of the three of us.2) My parents married and divorced eight times and I hoped my son would have no such pain.3)My primary focus was my son, not a wife.I ignored my son's suggestion that I consider dating. He grew up and became conscious of my loneliness and anxiety.I reconsidered my reservations about dating and began to date Maria. The second time he brought the issue up.I was concerned about my son's response to her. At first his affection for her was lukewarm: his hug was mechanical; but several months later he warmed up to her.I asked Maria to marry me and she accepted. Seeing the time was ripe.Our family of two became a family of three. I believe my remarriage was the right choice.VI . Further Listening and SpeakingListeningTask 1: Early marriageAt the age of 21, Lisa has been married for three years to a young man she met just after finishing secondary school. He treated her well. She almost died during the birth of their first child, born a year after their marriage. The second child, born 18 months later, was also a girl. Lately she and her husband quarrel frequently. She wants to go to vocational school to learn skills to add to the family income-but his mother insists she stay home and produce a son.This example is by no means exceptional.Early marriage is common in many parts of the world. Early marriage usually leads to early motherhood. In some developing countries, 20 percent or even half of the women give birth to their first child before the age of 18 Expectations from parents, in -laws and society are to produce a child as soon after marriage as possible. Many young wives feel pressure to bear sons. This typically results in early and frequent pregnancies. In developing countries, more than half a million women die every year from causes related to pregnancy. There are four important reasons for these deaths. Births are either "too soon, too close, too many, or too late". According to statistics, it is young women who mostoften die during pregnancy.1. At what age did Lisa give birth to her first baby?B) 19.2. What does Lisa want?D) She wants to learn skills to earn wages.3. Why do women in some developing countries have babies early?A) They are facing pressure from both their relatives and the society4. What are the reasons women die from childbirth?D) All of the above.5. What is the main idea of the passage?C) Problems of early marriage.Task 2: Nuclear Family Living PatternsA nuclear family is typical in higly-industiralized societies. Beginning in the early 20th century, the two-parent family known as the nuclear family was the predominant American family type. Generally children live with their parents until they go away to a college or university, or until they acquire their own jobs and move into their own apartment or home.In the early mid-20th century, the father typically was the sole wage earner, and the mother was the children's principal care giver. Today, often both parents hold jobs. Dual-earner families are the predominant type for families with children in the United States. Increasingly, one of the parents has a non-standard shift; that is, a shift that does not start in the morning and end in the late afternoon. In these families, one of the parents manages the children while the other works.Prior to school, adequate day care of children is necessary for dual-earner families. In recent years, many private companies and home-based day care centers have sprung up to fulfill this need. Increasingly, a company arrangement of day care as well as government assistance to parents requiring day care are occurring.Task 3:They are coming for Christmas.A man in Phoenix calls his son in New York the day before Christmas and says, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mom and I are divorcing. Forty-five years of misery is enough.""Dad, what are you talking about?" the son screams."We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the father says. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her."Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone."Oh, heck, they're getting divorced," she shouts. "I'11 take care of this." Losing no time, she calls her father and screams at him, "You are not getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do any thing! DO YOU HEAR ME?" Then she quickly hangs up.The old man hangs up his phone and heaves a sigh of relief. He turns to his wife and says merrily, "Okay, they are coming back for Christmas and paying their own way." (192 words)1. He and the boy's mother are divorcing.2. Forty-five years of misery is enough. They can't stand the sight of each other any longer. They are sick of each other.3. He gets frantic and calls his sister.4. They will come back home to stop the parents from divorcing.5. He is happy, for his son and daughter will come back for Christmas and pay their own way.News Report: More Precious Than the DiamondPeople have long known the saying "Diamonds are a girl's best friend." But this may be changing. There's a new stone on the gem market, tanzanite, and it is giving diamonds some serious competition.Tanzanite was one of a number of gems discovered in East Africa in the 1960s. The new colors and varieties changed the gem market. But the real gem among these stones was tanzanite, discovered in 1967 in Tanzania.The stone was named after its country of origin by New York's Tiffany and Co., which introduced it to the world. It draws one's attention quickly with its colors--blue, purple or bronze, depending on the direction it is viewed from.More important for its value, though, is its rarity. Tanzanite has been found in only one small area, near Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania. And its supply will probably be fully mined in the next two decades.As one mining official puts it, "It should never have really occurred in the first place. It did occur. And only this one deposit on this entire planet that is known., makes it more than a thousand times rarer than diamonds.And certainly within the next 15 to 20 years, there will be no more tanzanite to be mined."The current value of the tanzanite market, at U.S.$10 billion, is equivalent to that of diamonds. And so another saying "Diamonds are forever" may lose some of its meaning.。
