Parents Part B exercise1短文 三题

P4

After 22 years of marriage,I have discovered the secret to keep love alive in my relationship with my wife, Peggy.I started dating with another woman.It was Peggy's idea.One day she said to me,“Life is too short, you need to spend time with the people you love.You probably won't believe me,but I know you love her and I think that if the two of you spend more time together, it will make us closer.” The “other” woman my wife was encouraging me to date is my mother,a 72-year-old widow who has lived alone since my father died 20 years ago.Right after his death , I moved 2,500 miles away to California and started my own life and career.When I moved back near my hometown six years ago, I promised myself that I would spend more time with mom.But with the demands of my job and three kids, I never got around to seeing her much beyond family get-togethers and holidays.Mom was surprised and suspicious when I called and suggested the two of us go out to dinner and a movie.“What's wrong?” she asked.“I thought it would be nice to spend some time with you,” I said.“Just the two of us.” “I would like that a lot,” she said.When I pulled into her driveway, she was waiting by the door with her coat on.Her hair was curled, and she was smiling.“I told my lady friends I was going out with my son, and they were all impressed.They can't wait to hear about our evening,” Mother said.Passage 2 Dating with My Mother(Part Two)短文 3题

句子填空

P6 We didn't go anywhere fancy, just a neighborhood place where we could talk.Since her eyes now see only large shapes and shadows, I had to read the menu for both of us.“I used to be the reader when you were little,” she said.“Then it is time for you to relax and let me return the favor,” I said.We had a nice talk over dinner, just catching up on each other's lives.We talked for so long that we missed the movie.“I'll go out with you again,” my mother said as I dropped her off, “but only if you let me buy dinner next time.” I agreed.“How was your date?” my wife asked when I got home that evening.“Nice … nicer than I thought it would be,” I said.Mom and I get out for dinner a couple of times a month.Sometimes we take in a movie, but mostly we talk.I tell her about my trails at work and brag about the kids and Peggy.Mom fills me in on family gossip and tells me about her past.Now I know what it was like for her to work in a factory during the Second World War.I know how she met my father there, and know how they went through the difficult times.I can't get enough of these stories.They are important to me, a part of my history.We also talk about the future.Because of health problems, my mother worries about the days ahead.Spending time with my mom has taught me the importance of slowing down.Peggy was right.Dating another woman has helped my marriage.Part C短对话？

P8 1.W: You know, many American parents are now wondering why they can't keep their teenage children from drinking.M: I know.To my mind, it's the permissive attitude of the parents that is to blame.Q: What can you learn from the man's response? 2.M: Don't you think it's good to give our children a monthly allowance? W: I think so.It can teach them the value of money.With a monthly allowance they can learn to budget their expenses wisely.Q: What are they talking about? 3.M: Mom, I've got a part-time job at a supermarket.Three hours a day weekdays and all day Saturday.W: Congratulations, Tom.But are you sure you can handle it?

W: My father had an accident the other day.He is now in hospital and will have an operation tomorrow.You see, his heart is rather weak.I really don't know whether he can survive it.Q: What's the woman worried about? 5.W: Mother's Day is coming soon.Could you tell me what sons and daughters do in your country on that day? M: Well, they send their mothers flowers and cards to celebrate the occasion.Besides, it is a common practice for them to wear pink carnations on that day.Q: Which of the following is true of the customs of Mother's Day in the man's country?

单词填空

P12

Andrew had always wanted to be a doctor.But the tuition for a medical school in 1984 was 15,000 dollars a year, which was more than his family could afford.To help him realize his dream, his father, Mr.Stewart, a real estate agent, began searching the house-for-sale ads in newspapers in order to find extra business.One advertisement that he noted down was for the sale of a house in a nearby town.Mr.Stewart called the owner, trying to persuade him to let him be his agent.Somehow he succeeded and the owner promised that he would come to him if he failed to get a good deal with his present agent.Then they made an appointment to meet and discuss the thing.As good things are never easy to acquire, the time for the appointment had to be changed almost ten times.On the day when they were supposed to meet at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Mr.Stewart received another call from the owner.His heart sank as he feared there would be another change of time.And so it was.The owner told him that he couldn't make it at three but if he would come right then, they could talk it over.Mr.Stewart was overjoyed.Leaving everything aside, he immediately set out to drive to the house.As he approached the area, he had a strange feeling of having been there before.The streets, the trees, the neighborhood, all looked familiar to him.And when he finally reached the house, something clicked in his mind.It used to be the house of his father-in-law!The old man had died fifteen years ago but when he was alive, he had often visited him with his wife and children.He remembered that, like his son Andrew, his father-in-law had also wanted to study medicine and, failing to do so, had always hoped that one of his two daughters or his grandchildren could someday become a doctor.Part C 复合式听写

P18 One of the best-known collections of parallels is between the careers of Abraham Lincoln and John F.Kennedy.Both were shot on a Friday, in the presence of their wives;both were succeeded by a Southerner named Johnson;both their killers were themselves killed before they could be brought to justice.Lincoln had a secretary called Kennedy;Kennedy a secretary called Lincoln.Lincoln was killed in the Ford Theater;Kennedy met his death while riding in a Lincoln convertible made by the Ford Motor Company — and so on.Similar coincidences often occur between twins.A news story from Finland reported of two 70-year-old twin brothers dying two hours apart in separate accidents, with both being hit by trucks while crossing the same road on bicycles.According to the police, the second victim could not have known about his brother's death, as officers had only managed to identify the first victim minutes before the second accident.Connections are also found between identical twins who have been separated at birth.Dorothy Lowe and Bridget Harrison were separated in 1945, and did not meet until 1979, when they were flown over from Britain for an investigation by a psychologist at the University of Minnesota.They found that when they met they were both wearing seven rings on their hands, two bracelets on one wrist, a watch and a bracelet on the other.They married on the same day, had worn identical wedding dresses and carried the same flowers.Dorothy had named her son Richard Andrew and her daughter Catherine Louise;Bridget had named her son Andrew Richard and her daughter Karen Louise.In fact, she had wanted to call her Catherine.Both had a cat called Tiger.They also had a string of similar mannerisms when they were nervous.How can we explain the above similarities?

Courage Part B Krimali(Part One)短文2题

P22 On the morning of the devastating earthquake that struck India in 2001,Krimali, a girl of 17, had just left home to go to an interview for a position of a sales clerk.She was pleased with her green and yellow flowered dress, but felt something wasn't quite right about her hair.She returned home, removing her shoes and leaving them at the door.Moments later, the earthquake struck.Ceilings and walls in the building shook in the deafening noise.Then everything began crashing down.Krimali and her immediate family escaped serious injury but were unable to make their way out.The ceiling of an entire room towered above the only possible escape route.Completely detached on three sides, the huge slab clung to an outside wall on its fourth side.To an observer, it could drop at any moment.People were screaming and didn't know what to do.Krimali decided to act.Carefully she climbed barefoot up and down the debris until she reached a point just beneath the swaying ceiling.About four meters below were uneven pieces of concrete, broken glass and smashed furniture, all mixed with sharp spikes of iron.She knew if she could manage to get down to the ground level, she could make her way to safety.She paused to figure out the best way down.As there wasn't any good place to jump, she just jumped.Luckily, she landed in a crouch, her feet missing any sharp edges.Emboldened by her good fortune, Krimali knew it was up to her to persuade others to follow.Passage 2 Krimali(Part Two)短文2题

P24 Krimali planned to rescue her family first, but just then she heard a woman from two storeys above screaming for someone to save her two-month-old baby.“Throw the baby to me,” Krimali shouted.“I can catch her!” The woman refused.Krimali told the woman to wrap the baby in bed sheets and then toss her down.Crying uncontrollably, the mother wrapped the little girl but still would not part with her baby.As the mother tried to decide what to do, Krimali intently watched the concrete ceiling hanging above her.Finally the mother tossed the baby.Krimali made a clean catch.A bright smile lit up the woman's face.“I'll be back!” Krimali called out, hugging the child to her as she hurriedly picked her way out to where survivors had gathered.She gave up the baby, then asked if any of the men there would come back with her to help others trapped in the building.No one came forward, for they were all afraid of that swaying ceiling.But for Krimali, a small girl of 154 centimeters in height and weighing about 50 kilos, her fears had been lifted by what she had accomplished.On her way back into the ruins, she saw part of a large door.It was extremely heavy but she managed to drag it to the spot just below the hanging ceiling.By placing it on the ruins, she created something like a sliding board.With Krimali coaching her, the baby's mother partly jumped and partly rolled down the board to the ground level.Krimali led her through the debris to her baby.In the hours that followed Krimali made countless rescue missions into the building, each time in the shadow of the huge ceiling.Thanks to her courage, about two dozen men, women and children were saved.Part C 短文4题 真

P26 When the first plane slammed into the World Trade Center's north tower, I was already at my desk on the 88th floor.Then I felt the whole building bouncing, shaking.My instinct told me that there was an explosion above us and that we should try to get out, but the corridors were full of flames.Knowing that the furniture and the carpets were fire-resistant, I figured that everything wasn't going to burn.Then I heard someone yell that the stairwells were gone.So about 40 of us escaped into a corner office.We put papers and rags under the door to keep out the smoke as best we could.We stayed calmly in the office for about 10 minutes, thinking we were safe and secure.Then someone came in to tell us that he had found a stairwell open but we had to move fast.We all filed out orderly and headed for the stairwell.Going down the stairs was not easy for me for I had lost a leg to cancer when I was 16 and wore an artificial limb.More or less, I used my arms to get down.When we reached the 40th floor, we came to a complete stop.There was a jam of people.The firemen were coming up the stairs, carrying their equipment.Some 100 firefighters must have walked past us.Some of them looked so young that they seemed hardly out of high school.But they were great, assuring us that they would take care of everything.Eventually we kept moving and got out.The journey down took about 40 minutes.Unit 4

Marriage Part B Exercise 1短文3题

句子填空

P30(Tom and Linda have signed a marriage agreement.Both agree not to break the rules outlined in the agreement.John, a reporter, is talking to them about the agreement.)John: Tom, Linda, first I'd like to ask you why you decided to write this unusual agreement.Tom: We found that many problems are caused when a person has different expectations from his or her spouse.We wanted to talk about everything openly and honestly before we started living together.Linda: Also we both know how important it is to respect each other's pet peeves.Like, I can get very annoyed if others leave stuff — clothing, papers, everything!— lying around on the floor.It really bugged me, so we put that in the agreement.John: This is mentioned in Article 1: Cleaning Up, isn't it? It says, “Nothing will be left on the floor overnight.Everything must be cleaned up and put away before going to bed.” Tom: Then I'll know clearly what Linda's expectations are.John: I see.What about Article 2: Sleeping? It says, “We will go to bed at 11 p.m.and get up at 6:30 a.m.except on weekends.” I'm sure some people hearing this will think that this agreement isn't very romantic.Tom: Well, we disagree.We think it's very romantic.This agreement shows that we sat down and talked, and really tried to understand the other person.A lot of problems occur in a marriage when people don't talk about what they want.Linda: That's right.When we disagreed about something, we worked out a solution that was good for both of us.I would much rather have Tom really listen to me and understand my needs than give me a bunch of flowers or a box of candy.Conversation 2 A Marriage Agreement(Part Two)长对话3题 句子填空P32 John: Linda, do you spend a lot of time checking to see if the other person is following the rules? Arguing? Linda: No, not at all.Tom: A lot of couples argue because they don't understand each other's expectations.I think we spend less time arguing than most couples because we both know what the other person expects.John: What happens if one of you breaks a rule? Tom: Well, that's in Article 13 of our agreement.John: Is it? Oh yes, Article 13: Breaking Rules.“If you break a rule, you must apologize and do something nice for the other person to make it up.” Linda: Yeah, like last time Tom broke the rule of driving.John: What's the rule? Linda: The rule is we must ask for directions if we are driving and get lost for more than five minutes.John: What happened? Tom: We were driving to a friend's wedding, and we got lost.Linda wanted to stop at a gas station to ask for directions, but I thought I could figure it out.Linda: Then we drove forty miles in the wrong direction and ended up being late for the wedding.Tom: So I took her out to dinner.I knew what I should do to apologize.John: That's very important, I think, knowing how to apologize.By the way, do you plan to update your agreement at all? What if things change in your life and a rule doesn't work anymore? Linda: We've thought about that too.Article 14 states that we must review this agreement once a year and make necessary changes.John: Well, it was really nice talking to you both.Thank you very much for your time.Tom & Linda: Thank you.Part c Test Your Listening 长对话3题 真

P36 M: Ah, come in, Barbara.Take a seat.How have things been? W: Oh, much the same.I still seem to have quarrels with my husband all the time.M: What do you quarrel about? W: Oh, everything.You see, he never thinks of my feelings.M: Go on.W: Well, I'll give you an example.You know, when the children started school, I wanted to go back to work again, too.So I got a job.Well anyway, by the time I've collected Gary and Lucy from school, I only get home about half an hour before he comes back...M: Yes? W: Well, when he gets home, he expects me to run around and get his tea.He never does anything in the house.M: Mm.W: And last Friday he invited three of his friends to come around for a drink.He didn't tell me to expect them, and I'd had a long and difficult day.I don't think that's right, do you? M: Well, I'm not here to pass judgment.I'm here to listen.W: Sorry.And he's so untidy.He's worse than the kids.I always have to remind him to pick up his clothes.He just throws his clothes on the floor.After all, I'm not his servant.I've got my own career.Actually, I think that's part of the trouble.You see I earn as much money as he does.Unit 5 Part BExercise 1 短文2题 表格填空 P40 While reading a magazine, Ashley, a sixteen-year-old girl, came across an article which said that antibiotics and other drugs were discovered in European rivers and tap water.This led her to think that such drugs might also be present in the waters near her home in West Virginia.Ashley feared that antibiotics in the waters could lead to resistant bacteria, or supergerms.They can kill countless people.She began testing her area's river — the Ohio.With a simple device she herself had designed, she collected 350 water samples from the Ohio over ten weeks.She taught herself to analyze the samples by reading scientific journals.It was one of the most scientifically sound projects for someone her age.Her experiment was one of the first of its kind in the United States.It showed that low levels of three antibiotics are indeed present in local waters.Ashley's study won the International Stockholm Junior Water Prize, a virtual Nobel Prize for teenagers.She won a $5,000 scholarship and was received by Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria.Her interest in science came from walks in the woods with her mother.But it was the day-to-day stuff — how water comes to the tap, how rain sticks to glass, that most fascinated her.“Science is not a dead thing,” she says.“It's happening all around us.” By the sixth grade, she was winning at science fairs.She has received $70,000 in prize money, which she has put aside for college.She plans to attend Harvard University.“I want to make my own discoveries, and not just read about what others have done,” she said.Her teachers predict that she will one day win a Nobel Prize.Passage 2

Young People Say No to Smoking 单词句子填空 长对话短文5题P42 On February 16, 2001, the teenagers from a youth group called REBEL launched their advertising campaign at the Liberty Science Center in New Jersey.They worked on various aspects of the campaign and even appeared in the “Not for Sale” commercial on television and the radio against tobacco companies.REBEL stands for Reaching Everybody by Exposing Lies.It is a statewide youth initiative which fights against tobacco companies.The movement began in November last year.It carries the message that teenagers no longer want to be targeted by tobacco companies in their advertisements.The group realized that one of the biggest problems that teenagers face is peer pressure on them to smoke or do drugs.Therefore, the group is working hard to ensure that their message reaches all teenagers at New Jersey schools.When the group was first formed, there were only five members, all eighth grade students.But by this summer the group had grown to close to 90 members.At a recent recruiting party, a pizza and pool party, at the West New York swimming pool, more than 50 new members were attracted to the group.“We don't think that too many people would be interested,” said Jackie, one of its founding members.“But everyone knows our message.They know who we are now.” Part C 长对话4题P44 Roger: Hi, Jenny, you don't look happy.What's wrong? Jenny: Well, Roger, I've got a problem.Roger: What is it? Jenny: You know my daughter Linda is 16 years old now.And we've begun talking about college.She says she wants to go, but she's let her grades slip and no matter how I urge her to study, all she seems interested in are clothes and boys.We're not wealthy, you know.And it won't be easy for us to afford the tuition if she can't get a scholarship.That seems to be my biggest worry now.But, Roger, is going to college the best choice for her right now? Roger: Do you mean that she doesn't seem ready for college? Jenny: You're right.Roger: Then you'd better have a serious talk with Linda about college.Jenny: A serious talk with her? Roger: Yes.I think it's quite normal for girls her age to be wrapped up in fashion and dating, but as a mother you have a right to expect her to pay attention to her studies too.Jenny: Yes, but how? Roger: Ask her how serious she is about college and how hard she's willing to work for it.Linda may be more committed than you realize.But if not, tell her she should think about putting college off for a while.That could give her the push she needs to take her education seriously.Jenny: Sounds like a good idea.Roger: And if you decide she should wait, she can get a job, take classes at a community college or do an internship to get experience.She may be just one of those who need to see a bit of real life before they settle down.Unit 6 Stress Part B Exercise 1 长对话3题 单词填空P48 Interviewer: Welcome to our program, Sam.Sam: Thank you.Interviewer: Sam, how long have you been a police officer? Sam: I've been a police officer for thirty years.Interviewer: Thirty years.And you've had different types of assignments on the police force, I guess.Sam: Yeah, I've done everything from patrol to undercover work to detective work, and now I'm supervising investigations.Interviewer: Sam, I think most people would say that being a police officer is a very stressful job.Would you agree? Sam: Yes, it's definitely a stressful job.But it depends on your assignment.Interviewer: So, what's probably the most stressful assignment you can have? Sam: I'd say patrol is the most stressful assignment.Interviewer: That's interesting!In what way? Sam: Well, I guess the biggest part of the stress is the fear factor — the fear of the unknown.Interviewer: What do you mean, Sam? Sam: Well, in patrol work, you don't know from moment to moment who you are talking to or what their reaction is going to be to justify your presence.Let's say, for example, a patrol officer stops someone for a traffic violation.It seems as though that would be a very low-stress situation.Interviewer: Yes, it is a very low-stress situation.Sam: But the truth is, there are more police officers injured during a routine stop.Interviewer: Really? Sam: Really!That's why all police officers are taught from the very beginning to be aware of their surroundings.People back over policemen, people shoot policemen, people jump out at policemen — different kinds of things.So that's probably the most stressful time.Interviewer: I see.Let's take a break and then we'll move on to our next topic.Sam: All right.Conversation 2 Stress Reducers Exercise 1 句子填空P50 Write “T” for a true statement and “F” for a false one.Interviewer: Sam, you've talked about the police officers' stressful time.Now let's move on to the next topic.So far as I know, there's a connection between stress and illness.Do you think that there's a higher percentage of illness among police officers than in the general population? I mean, do they get more colds or anything? Is this really true? Sam: Yes, it is, and the stress level not only manifests itself in daily health — whether or not you're feeling well on any given day.It also manifests itself in things like ulcers, heart disease — police officers tend to have a higher rate of heart disease and ulcers than people in other professions.Interviewer: Really? That's documented? Sam: Yes, it's documented.And also the divorce rate among police officers is much higher.Interviewer: Is there something that the police department does to help you deal with this stress? Sam: Yes, there are several programs that most police departments have in place.One is an exercise program where some part of your day is spent on some type of physical exercise.They've found that's a great stress reducer.Besides, there's also a psychological program with counseling for officers to help them reduce their stress.And there are several discussion groups as well.They've found that sometimes just sitting around and talking about the stress with other officers helps to reduce it.So, those things are available.Interviewer: And what do you do, personally, to deal with the stress of your job, Sam? Sam: Well, during the baseball season, I'm the biggest baseball fanatic, and I will either be reading about baseball, or listening to baseball, or watching baseball.Another thing I try to do is to get some sort of exercise every day.And then I work hard at keeping up my personal relationships, especially my relationship with my wife.Fortunately I get along very well with my wife.When I come back home, I can talk about my day with her, and then just forget about it.Part C 短对话？

Sam: Thank you, Bernard.Well, I think we have to face up to several realities and what I have to say is in three parts and will take about twenty minutes.Chairman: Er, Sam? we don't have much time — it's really your main points we're most interested in.Jane: Yes.Can I ask one thing, Mr.Chairman? Isn't this a global problem in our market? Chairman: Sorry, Jane, I can't allow us to consider that question just yet.We'll look at the global question later.Sam, sorry, please carry on.Sam: Well, the three points I want to make can be made in three sentences.First, sales are down, but only by 5% more than for the group as a whole.Secondly, our budget for sales has been kept static — it hasn't increased, not even with inflation, so we're trying to do better than last year on less money.Thirdly — Jane: That's not exactly true...Chairman: Jane, please.Let Sam finish.Sam: Thirdly, the products are getting old — we need a new generation.Chairman: So let me summarize that.You say that sales are down but not by so much, that you've had less money to promote sales and that the products are old.Is that right? Sam: In a nutshell.Chairman: Does anyone have anything to add to that? Jane: Well, on the question of funding I have to disagree...Part C 短文4题 P62 This year our company as a whole has performed well — especially in America, our largest export market.As we see, on the financial front the results have been very pleasing.Costs have dropped by 3% and profits are up by 16%.However, the domestic consumer market has been very competitive and will continue to be so.I can say our results in this market have been rather disappointing — just 1% up compared with last year.Now let's move on to personnel.Our policy of personnel development through training and promotion opportunities has continued to be a great success.We have actually recruited 72 new staff, while 20 have retired — so there is a net balance of 52.The training department has expanded considerably and moved into new areas such as quality assurance and sales training.Finally technology.I think you would be interested to have an update since this is vital for our future growth.Over the last year, our research department has thoroughly tested a new prototype engine.Results so far have looked promising.We have also invested heavily in a European technology program which links industry with the universities.So, those are the three main areas — finance, personnel and technology.Are there any questions before I go on?

表格填空 P66 Every day people in Hong Kong get rid of 15 million plastic bags.They weigh about 600 tons.This is not including the tens of thousands of plastic bags people dump at the beaches and in local waters, which have caused serious pollution.These bags cost taxpayers over $70 million a year to deal with.Some of the bags are destroyed by burning.The problem with this is that, when they break down, they release poisonous chemicals, which can cause cancer.The chemical poisons penetrate into the earth.In order to attract the public's attention to the problem of plastic bags and to reduce the number of bags used at the same time, the Retail Management Association launched the Use Fewer Bags Campaign.In the first stage of the campaign, 1,500 retail stores aimed to reduce the number of plastic bags given away to customers by 10 per cent.This has been achieved.The second stage of campaign will focus on the number of plastic bags given away in markets.“Ideally, people going to buy food in the markets should carry their own reusable bags, such as canvas bags, that can be washed,” said a campaign coordinator.She stressed that the campaign had two objectives.Besides reducing the number of plastic bags used, she hoped that the campaign would increase the public's overall awareness of environmental problems.Passage 2 The Rhine River Exercise 1 短文3题 句子填空 P68 The River Rhine is Western Europe's most important waterway.Rising in the Alps, it passes through Switzerland, Germany, France and Holland, before flowing into the North Sea.But for decades, industrial and domestic waste flowed untreated into the river and, not surprisingly, the Rhine was seriously polluted from the 1950s to the 1970s.Fish disappeared and it was dangerous to swim in it.Then in 1986 a fire at a chemical plant in Basel, Switzerland, caused tons of pesticides to leak into the river.Thousands of fish died.That was a wake-up call for the countries along the Rhine.They realized that they really had to get together and clean it up and keep it clean.Otherwise it could be the death of the Rhine.Switzerland, Germany and France now work together in Basel to keep the river clean.At various points, water is extracted and checked every six minutes, twenty-four hours a day.And industries that pollute the river can be traced and fined.Thanks to international cooperation, the river is on the path to recovery.At Basel, in the evening summer sun, the river has a festive atmosphere.People walk leisurely along the river banks, listening to live music, and pause for a drink in one of the many open-air cafes.On the vast river itself, boats from Germany sail slowly past the old town of the city, towards the more modern structures of the chemical industries.Partc 短文4题

P72 For a cleaner environment it's necessary for us to keep in mind the three Rs.They are: reduce, reuse, and recycle.Reducing is the best way to protect the environment.However, if you can't reduce something, reuse it.And if you can't reuse it, you can recycle it.Reducing waste means shopping with the environment in mind.Consider the environmental impact of each product before you buy it.Remember to make a list of what you need before you go shopping;this will reduce impulse buying.Buy in bulk, which means buying in large quantities and not packed.It's much cheaper and eliminates small containers and excess packaging.Avoid buying things that can't be recycled.Second, learning to reuse is easy after you make a little practice.For example, you can reuse shopping bags.Buy canvas bags and use them when you shop.Buy durable, high-quality goods for a longer life.Although durable goods may cost a little more at first,they will save you money and help save the environment in the long run.Before throwing anything away, think about how each item can be reused.The last of the three Rs that we must keep in mind is recycling.Recycling means collecting, processing, marketing,and ultimately reusing materials that were once thrown away.Check the yellow pages orthe Internet to find information about local recycling programs in your community.Questions 1.What does the passage mainly discuss? 2.What should we do to reduce waste when we go shopping? 3.Why should we buy durable goods according to the passage? 4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

Unit 9 The Single Currency Part B Listening Tasks Passage 1 Exercise 1 短文3题 单词填空 P77 As firework displays ushered in the euro from Paris to Athens, Rome to Madrid, curiosity drove Europeans to cash machines at midnight December 31, 2001 for the first look at the brightly colored new notes.More than 300 million Europeans began changing their old currencies for the euro in the most ambitious currency changeover in history.To prepare for the large demand, banks across the euro zone disabled 200,000 ATMs in the afternoon, changing software and loading them with euro notes.Altogether 15 billion banknotes and 52 billion coins — worth 646 billion euros, or $568 billion — have been produced for the switchover.Knowing how people can be attached to their national currencies, architects of the euro expressed hope that it will help realize dreams of a united Europe.Across the continent, officials welcomed the euro as a sign of economic stability — a new symbol to bind 12 nations on a continent at the heart of two world wars.“We will become a greater Europe with the euro,” EU Commission President said in Vienna, shortly after he used the new currency to buy flowers for his wife.“We shall become stronger, wealthier.” His view was shared by Helmut Kohl, the former German chancellor, who with the late French leader Francois Mitterr had championed the single currency to bring peace and security to Europe.Kohl wrote in a newspaper, “A vision is becoming a reality.For me, the common currency in Europe fulfills a dream.It means there is no turning back from the path toward unification of our continent.” The original nations that adopted the euro were: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain.Those staying out are Britain, Sweden and Denmark.Passage 2 Exercise 1 短文3题

Buckingham Palace and other royal residences open to the public do not accept euros at their gift shops and entry turnstiles.The new currency was launched in 12 European Union countries on January lst, 2002, but Britain was not one of them.A Buckingham Palace spokeswoman said the decision not to accept the euro was purely a business one and not a political statement.The retail outlets at the official residences have never accepted any other currencies.It is simply because as very small retail outlets, they don't have the facilities for changing currencies.However, many retail outlets in Britain have prepared to accept the new currency since millions of tourists are expected to visit the country every year.In 2002 alone, visitors from the euro zone were estimated to spend more than 6.55 billion euros in Britain.Major department stores Debenhams and Marks & Spencer and a big electronics retailer accept euros, but only on a limited basis initially.Twenty-nine of Marks & Spencer stores, primarily those in tourist locations, have at least one cash register on each floor to process euro transactions.Its other stores have at least one designated area — either a register or a customer service desk — where the currency is accepted.Products are not priced in euros, however, and change is given in British money.The British Prime Minister Tony Blair said Britain will only join the single currency if economic conditions are right.A series of recent opinion polls show many Britons oppose the euro and see it as against Britain's sovereignty.Part C 复合式听写

For a century much attached to national symbols, France took the imminent death of the franc calmly.It was as if an ancient great-great uncle were about to pass away: a time for nostalgia and regret, rather than grief.Unlike the German mark, the franc had never been a symbol of national rebirth or glory.Its recent history was relatively stable but it had to be revalued as recently as 1960.In the 1950s, its value and reputation were so weak that French politicians considered abolishing it and replacing it with something else, based on the value of the pound.But money is money after all.It is with us every day.It was surprising that such a conservative people did not express greater sorrow for the loss of their familiar francs.It was also surprising they did not feel a greater sense of aesthetic loss for the franc had always been one of the world's most beautiful currencies.The name franc was first used in 1360, to celebrate and help to pay for the release of the King of France, King Jean II, who was captured by the still poundless English.He created the “franc” or “free” to celebrate the occasion.Over the next 400 years the name came and went but was finally restored by the Revolution in 1795.On February 17th, 2002, the French franc disappeared completely from the financial scene.Unit 10 partB exercise1 短文2题 P84

In the golden fields of Kansas, corn is growing very well.Britain's biggest cinema success is under production.Although there are no stars, no special effects, no publicity, it is still guaranteed to make more money than all but the biggest hit movies.What is it? Popcorn.Last year, cinema popcorn sales in the UK and Ireland made £20 million plus, way ahead of most films.Only a handful of extremely successful movies could beat it.If it were not for popcorn, soft drinks and ice cream, British cinema would be as dead as the music hall.A recent survey found that every single screen in the country needed another source of income just to keep operating.Perhaps three or four films a year make money at the box office.The other films just help cinemas tick over, and pull in people to buy popcorn and sweets.Even when a cinema is showing a must-see film, the operator is working on paper-thin profits.He must fill every seat to cover the film company's costs.Film distributors regularly demand half the money taken at the box office;with big films they can charge between 69 percent and 89 percent of the takings.Cinemas still have to pay staff and running costs out of what's left.This is where popcorn and sweets come into the picture.A large carton of popcorn from a supermarket costs only a little over 90p.Cinemagoers, however, can pay up to £4 for one large helping.At one very expensive cinema in London's West End, for example, a carton costs £3.95.Eating popcorn while watching a movie is said to be a real pleasure.The difference between buying popcorn at a cinema and a supermarket is just like that between buying wine in a restaurant and at an ordinary shop.It costs twice as much or more.Passage2 exercise1 短文3题 P86 Hollywood's true heroes are losing their jobs.Stuntmen and stuntwomen who entertained cinemagoers by falling from the sky, swimming with sharks and driving fast cars have been replaced by technology.After surviving generations of street fights, high falls, and setting fire to themselves, the people behind top actors' most exciting scenes have had nearly all their work substituted by computers.The most dangerous and costly stunts can now be achieved by mixing computer graphics with live action.In the mid-1990s there were 12,000 registered stunt people, but more than half of them had difficulty finding work.Sometimes, six or seven teams would be working on a film.Then, after a few days, the producers would come in and say, “You can go home.”

The reason was simple: cost.Computer technology made it possible to create stunts which would either be too expensive or too dangerous to attempt.One example was in “Mission Impossible”, starring Tom Cruise.In a scene Cruise was seen flying from an exploding helicopter onto the back of a speeding train.In fact, the image of the actor was simply added onto the scene using computers.With the rise of digital technology, insurance companies became more reluctant to cover real stunts.“If they know it can be done safely with visual effects, the companies will not insure real stunts,” said a veteran stunt coordinator.Many in the industry believe stunt people should develop expertise in the new technology, acting as advisers on the virtual stunts.Some, however, think that stunt people can survive in their traditional careers.They believe that audiences won't accept stunts produced by computers for too long.Part C Test Your Listening 长对话4题

P90 M: What do you think of the movie we saw last night, Cathy? W: Well, to tell you the truth, I couldn't say I like it.I hate the violence.M: But actually I didn't realize there would be so much violence.Despite everything, though, the story is good, don't you think? W: Yes, the story is quite interesting and it is well written.And I must admit that the acting is superb.M: You said it.Everyone in the movie plays a convincing role.W: What I enjoyed most, though, was the scenery.Those shots of the Alps are really wonderful.M: I guess they were nice, but I was so much interested in the story that I didn't notice the scenery.I'm crazy about an exciting film even if it is violent.W: I don't mind suspense, but I really don't see the need to show all the blood and violence in the movie.It simply offends me.M: But that's life, Cathy.You can't hide from reality.W: I know, but I've got enough reality in the newspapers.When I see a movie, I just want to be entertained.M: Well, next time you'd better choose a comedy!Unit 11 Left-handedness Part B Exercise 1 短文3题 单词句子填空P94 Research has shown that 90% of people naturally use their right hands for most tasks.But hundreds of millions of people use their left hands.Then why are some people left-handed? Scientists have been trying to answer that question for many years.A study done in 1992 found that men are more likely to be left-handed than women.It also found that Asian or Hispanic people are less likely to be left-handed than white people, black people, or North American Indians.Some cultures accept people who do things mostly with their left hands.Others do not.Scientists want to know the reason for left-handedness because it is closely linked to mental problems and language difficulties.One idea about the cause of left-handedness is the genetic theory.It says that people are right-or left-handed because of genes passed to them by their parents.For example, it has been shown that the handedness of adopted children is more likely to follow that of their birth parents than their adopted parents.Other evidence of genetic involvement can be found in some families.One famous example is the left-handed members of the present British royal family.These include Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Charles and Prince William.Another idea is that right-handed people are born with the gene for it.But about 20% of people do not have the right-handed gene.These people could be either left-or right-handed.This idea may explain why two babies who have the same genes use different hands.In 18% of identical twins one twin is right-handed, and the other is left-handed.Probably both twins lack the right-handed gene so each has a chance to be either right-or left-handed.Some scientists believe that the cause of handedness could include both genetics and development.Passage 2 Does Being Left-handed Affect One's Life? 短文2题

P96 There are approximately 30 million left-handed people in the United States, and several hundred million more around the world.Most right-handed people have never even considered the possibility that there might be any serious issues affecting left-handers.Even among all of these left-handed people, there are many different opinions about what these issues are and which issues might be most important to them.Some left-handers think that being left-handed is a positive factor in their lives, and they feel that there are no serious issues affecting them.Others think that being left-handed is not a significant factor and has not affected their lives one way or another.There are also some left-handers who have no opinion and have never given any thought to what being left-handed has meant to them.But the majority of left-handed people find that being left-handed is at least a small disadvantage and a minor source of frustration in their lives.There are many things that right-handed people take for granted that are quite difficult for left-handers.These include many basic skills like learning to write, learning to use scissors and other hand tools and utensils, and learning various crafts and other activities.Sometimes left-handers are puzzled by equipment designed for right-handers, and other times they are confused by instructors and instructions geared toward teaching right-handers.For some left-handed people this amounts to occasional difficulties and minor inconveniences.For other left-handers it is a lifetime full of failures and frustrations that may lead to much more serious problems.Part C

P98 Approximately 90% of people in the world are naturally right-handed.Why is this so, and are we born one way or the other? The answer to this question is rather complicated.In babies and young children, no single side becomes dominant until around the age of eight.At 12 weeks, babies usually use both hands equally, but by 16 weeks, they mostly use the left hand for touching.By 24 weeks, they have changed again and start using both hands.Then at 28 weeks, they become one-handed again, although this time it is the right hand that is used more.At 32 weeks, they start using both hands again.When they reach the age of 36 weeks, there is another change, with most babies now preferring to use the left hand.Between 40 and 44 weeks, the right hand is once again more used.At 48 weeks, babies switch to using their left hands again, and then between 52 and 56 weeks, the right hand takes over.There are further changes still.At 80 weeks, the right hand loses control, and both are used again equally.When the young child reaches the age of two, the right hand takes over again, but between two and a half and three years, both hands are used equally.Things finally become stable at around four years and stay the same until, by the age of eight, one hand is strongly dominant over the other.Unit 12 Biodiversity Part B Exercise 1 短文填空

P103

The importance of biodiversity seems obvious to us.We enjoy the beauty of biodiversity when we take a walk in the park,take a trip to the zoo or a wild area,read books or watch TV shows about strange creatures in foreign lands.Some people believe that biodiversity is important simplybecause it is so wonderful.Some think there are philosophical or spiritual reasons for biodiversity.But there are other reasons why it is so important.The loss of biodiversity will change the balance of life on Earth.If an ecosystem is destroyed, many species adapted to that ecosystem may very likely be destroyed as well.If that species is whatscientists call “keystone”,a whole ecosystem may depend on it.Biodiversity is also important in its direct benefits to people.Plants give us the air we breathe;animals and plants supply us with the food we eat;and organisms and microorganisms clean the air,regulate floods, recycle waste, and control pests.Biodiversity also has economic and health benefits.Both industry and agriculture depend on it for raw material and other things.And medicine is even more dependent on biodiversity.In China, more than5,000 species of plants are used for medicinal purposes.Many species which were thought “useless” at first are found to be valuable.And this is a further threat from the loss of biodiversity.Passage 2How Many Species Are There?Exercise 1 短文5题 P104.Isn't it surprising that scientists have a better understandingof how many stars there are in the galaxy than how many species there are on Earth?Their estimates of global species diversityvary from 2 to 100 million species.Most people agree on an estimate of somewhere near 10 millionand yet only 1.5 million have actually been named.Current knowledge of species diversity is limited.This problem becomes more seriousbecause there is a lack of a central database or list of the world's species.New species are still being discovered —even new birds and mammals.On average, about three new species of birds are found each year,and since 1990, 10 new species of monkeys have been discovered.Other groups are still far from being completely described;an estimated 40 percent of freshwater fishesin South America have not yet been classified.Scientists were startled in 1980by the discovery of a huge diversity of insects in tropical forests.In one study of just 19 trees in Panama,960 new species of beetles were discovered.As scientists begin investigating other little-known ecosystems,like the soil and the deep sea,“surprising” discoveries of species become commonplace.There is nothing strange about this, though,since as many as a million undescribed species are believed to livein the deep sea.And one gram of a small-sized piece of land might hold 90 million bacteriaand other microbes.How many species these communities contain is still anyone's guess.Questions 1.Which of the following is true? 2.How many species are there on Earth according to most scientists? 3.In which of the following groups is the discovery ofnew species not mentioned in the passage? 4.What can you learn from the passage? 5.Which of the following best reveals the main idea of the passage?

Scientists have created a tomato that can grow on salty water.The plant is the first crop of its kind ever produced in the world.Its significance cannot be overestimated.The new technology can help mankind solve the problem of feedingits ever-expanding population.It is estimated that by 2025 the world population will amount to more than 9 billion,an increase of 3 billion over 2,000.Each day 240, 000 more people are born, ready to be fed like the rest of us.Unfortunately, not all the land on Earth can be used to grow crops for humans.About 24.7 million acres of land is lost to agriculture each yearbecause the land has become too salty.The main cause of the problem is irrigation(灌溉).When farmers water their crops, salts in the water also enter the soil.Over time, salts such as sodium(钠)and calcium build up to such a pointthat they severely harm the growth of crops.Salts destroy most plants' ability to draw up water through their roots.But, the new variety of tomato produced by Americanand Canadian scientists can store salts in its leavesso that the fruit doesn't taste salty.Researchers hope this technology will enable areas of poor quality land to become productive.And they can feed some of the world's growing population.Questions 1.What does this passage mainly tell us? 2.What is the significance of the new technology? 3.What will happen by 2025 according to the passage?

Dolly the sheep resulted from a cloning experiment by a group of Scottish scientists in 1997.A fierce debate on human cloning has ever since been going on.This contentious issue has focused on ethical and social implications of the technology: what the technology might do to the very meaning of human reproduction, child rearing, individuality, et cetera.The majority of scientists are adamantly opposed to reproductive cloning and support therapeutic cloning for treating diseases.The reason is that therapeutic cloning does not involve any type of risk to human life and actually provides tremendous potential for the relief of suffering in human beings.Scientists believe that with politics and monitoring in place to ensure that therapeutic cloning is used safely, we can all benefit from this procedure.Text B Comprehension Check(P.248)d
