(Text 1)
W: What a memory I have! I did write down the mobile number on a sheet of paper when I answered the phone this morning, even that Mr. Smith’s email address, and now it is nowhere to be found!
M: Don’t worry. I’ll be seeing him in an hour. I can ask him for his email address when I see him.
W: That’s very kind of you, Mr. Baker.
(Text 2)
W: This machine has so many buttons. I can’t figure out which one makes it.
M: Well, you’d better read the instructions first. Pressing the buttons improperly may cause the machine to break down.
W: Oh, I see.
(Text 3)
M: What’s the best way to downtown?
W: If you’re in a hurry, you should take a taxi. But it’s kind of expensive.
M: I’m in no particular hurry.
W: Well, in that case, take an airport bus then. It will cost you only about $5.
M: That cannot be a better idea.
(Text 4)
W: Jack, have you got the book I asked you to borrow the other day?
M: Sorry, I haven’t.
W: How come?
M: I couldn’t find time to go to the library.
(Text 5)
W: Could you do me a real favor, please?
M: Yes, of course.
W: I’ve arranged to meet my friend Tony, but I’m really engaged now. I was wondering if you could go along and meet him for me.
M: Oh, yes, certainly!
(Text 6)
M: Can I help you?
W: Yes, well, I bought this tie last week for my husband’s birthday, and er...well he doesn’t like it. Could I change it for something else, such as a shirt or a hat?
M: Certainly, madam, provided that it hasn’t been worn, and if you have the receipt.
W: Yes, here it is.
M: OK, er... this tie looks as if it were worn. I’m afraid I can’t put that back on the shelf.
W: Oh, that’s a pity.
(Text 7)
M: Morning, Sue. Did you enjoy your holiday in the country?
W: Yes, thanks. We had a great time. And some friends went with us.
M: Where did you stay? In a hotel?
W: No. We camped in the mountains, near Snowtown. We cooked all our meals over an open fire.
M: Sounds wonderful. Was the weather good?
W: The sun shone nearly every day and it didn’t rain at all.
M: Did you like the people there?
W: Yes, they were great. We met some farmers and had tea in their houses.
M: When did you get back? Last night?
W: No, this morning. You’ll think we were mad. We got up at 4:30, left at 5 and arrived here at 9.I’m so tired. What about you? Did you have a good weekend?
M: Yes, but I didn’t do much. I just stayed at home. The weather was terrible.
(Text 8)
M: You see the list of books for this course?
W: Yes, Dr. Downs said he expects us to have the first five on the list. He is going to discuss them in detail.
M: Are you going to buy them?
W:I don’t know. These books are expensive. And I don’t have a lot of money on me.
M: How about sharing them with me?
W: Sounds good.
M: Let’s do this. I will buy three and you buy two of them.
W:I would rather do it this way: we pay fifty-fifty for the books now. And at the end of the course you can take the books you find more interesting and I will take the ones I like.
M: What if we both like the same books?
W: Come on, we are not going to argue over that, are we?
M:I was just joking. It’s definitely a better idea.
W: Then let’s get the books as soon as possible.
(Text 9)
M: Oh, no! I’m supposed to meet her at seven sharp. What time is it now?
W: Six thirty.
M: I’d better get ready.
W: Where are you going?
M: Haven’t made up our minds yet. Maybe to a restaurant, or perhaps to the movies first.
W: Why don’t you go and see Citizen Kane at the Classic Film Festival? It’s supposed to be great.
M: Oh, maybe we will. Psycho is also playing. I’ve heard it’s really good, too.
W: If you like horror films with lots of blood. Personally I don’t. Well, I really should be going. Do you want to go swimming tomorrow?
M: I’d be glad to, but I might have to go to the studio and do some work. Can I let you know the first thing in the morning?
W: Sure. That’ll be fine.
M: Oh, there’s the phone. It must be Tracy.
W : Well, I’d better be going then. Have a good time tonight.
M: Thanks. I’ll ta lk to you tomorrow.
(Text 10)
Everybody here is very kind to me, but there are times when I think of home and get rather sad. I sometimes get a little tired of English coo king. Once a week I go to Soho. Soho is a part of London where there are all sorts of restaurants, French, Italian, Greek, Spanish, Indian, and Chinese. So when I’m tired of English cooking, I go to one of the Soho restaurants. Sometimes I even have a bottle of wine! Wine isn’t cheap in England. It isn’t something we drink every day.
English people do not talk as much as we do. I’ve often traveled by train and nobody has spoken to me during the journeys. I know one Englishman who is unusual, he speaks seven languages. He can also be silent in seven languages! But I’ve found one way to make him talk. He’s interested in mountain climbing. If I ask him about climbing, he’s a lways ready to talk.

W:Do I take the street?

Then you'll see a church on the left.Next to the church is the museum.
W:Oh,this is not easy.I'll try.

W:About 50 days.I went there on July 5th and came back on August 25th.
M:Where did you live in New York?
W:Oh,I lived with an American family,the Smiths.
They were very kind people.Shortly after I arrived,we became good friends.
And,living in their house,I could speak English with them every day.
Besides,I didn't need to worry about my daily three meals.
They looked after that .
M:How nice!And how about the course?
W:The course was also very good.The teachers were nice.
They taught us to listen,speak,read and write in English,but it was mostly speaking.
One interesting I found was that the American classes are different from our classes here because they are very free.
You can sit anywhere you like in the classroom.
You can ask the teacher questions at any time during the class.
And you are welcome to share your ideas with the class.I really like this kind of class.
M:How interesting!Maybe our teacher should try that.

He has to get up at half past four and he always turns te radio on loud.
M:Ask him to turn it down then.
W:It's difficult.I don't know him yet.

5.Good morning,Ladies and Gentleman.
Welcome to our school.My name is Andrew Brown.
I am a history teacher.I'll give you a quick introduction to the school before I show you around.
Our school is called a "free school".That means that the pupils are free to choose what and how they want to learn.
The school opens at 9a.m.,but the children can arrive when they like.
Most of them are in school by ten.
Between nine and ten most people are in the living room and the kitchen downstairs.
Some of the children haven't had much breakfast,so there is a lot of eating,tea_drinking and talking.
This is a time when children and teachers can work out what they are to do for the day.
Now if you look through the door of that big room you will see those children reading and drawing there.
Some have chosen to do maths.They are on the third floor with Miss Green.
Four of the older boys are now on the way to the Cardrome to have their driving lessons.
Several children are in the kitchen helping Miss Cabell with lunch.
The children take turns doing this.They all enjoy doing it.
After lunch it's someone else's job to do the washing-up.
This job is unpopular and not many of them like to do it.
After lunch the children go on with what they've been doing until 4:30.
On Monday and Thursdays the school is also open in the evenings until 9:00p.m..
On Wednesday afternoon there is a school meeting.
On Friday we sometimes take the children to a cinema or a museum.
The school is also open every weekend for those children who want to come.
6.Good morning everybody.My topic for today is "Early Money."
I'm going to tell you something about money used in the early days.
To be honest,we know little about how early people came to use money,but we do know some of the things which have been used as money.
In some parts of Asia,tea was used for money.The American Indians used nuts and other things.
Perhaps the mos common money of all was an animal found some places today,cows are still used as a kink of money.
So you see,things highly valued by everybody may serve as money.
The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money.
Oh,sorry,you don't know the word?Well,it is spelled C-O-I-N.
Here are some coins of the past.You can come over and have a look.

In early 1994, when MarkAndreessen was just 23 years old, he arrived in Silicon Valley with anideathat would change the world. As a student at the University of Illinois, he andhis friends haddeveloped a program called Mosaic, which allowed people toshare information on the worldwideweb. Before Mosaic, the web had been usedmainly by scientists and other technical people,who were happy just to sendand receive text. But with Mosaic, Andreessen and his friends haddeveloped aprogram, which could send images over the web as well. Mosaic was anovernightsuccess.
It was put on the university's network at the beginning of 1993. Andby theend of the year, it had over a million users. Soon after, Andreessenwent to seek his fortune inSilicon Valley. Once he got there, he started tohave meetings with a man called Jim Clark, whowas one of the Valley's mostfamous entrepreneurs. In 1994, nobody was making any realmoney from theInternet, which was still very slow and hard to use. But Andreessen had seenan opportunity thatwould make him and Clark rich within two years. He suggested they shouldcreatea new computer program that would do the same job as Mosaic but would be mucheasierto use. Clark listened carefully to Andreessen, whose ideas andenthusiasm impressed himgreatly. Eventually, Clark agreed to invest threemillion dollars of his own money in the project,and to raise an extra fifteenmillion from venture capitalists, who were always keen to listen toClark's newideas.
Advertising informs consumers about the existence and benefits ofproducts and services andattempts to persuade them to buy them. The best formof advertising is probably word ofmouth advertising which occurs when peopletell their friends about the benefits of products orservices that they havepurchased. Yet virtually no providers of goods or services relay on thisalone,which using paid advertising instead. Indeed many organizations also use institutionalorprestige advertising which is designed to build up their reputation ratherthan to sellparticular products.
Although large companies could easily set up theirown advertisingdepartments, write their own advertisements and by media space themselves.They tend to usethe services of large advertising agencies. These are likelyto have more resources and moreknowledge about all aspects of advertising andadvertising media than single company. It is alsoeasier for a dissatisfycompany to give its account to another agency. And it would be to firetheirown advertising staff. The company generally give the advertising agency andagreedbudget. A statement of the objective of the advertising campaign know asbrief and overalladvertising strategy concerning the message to becommunicated to the target customers. Theagency creates advertisements anddevelops a media prime, specifying which media will be usedand in which proportions.Agencies often produce alternative ads or commercials thatpretested innewspapers, television stations etc. in different parts of the country. Beforea finalchoices was made
Extinction is a difficult concept to grasp. It is aneternal concept. It is not at all like the killing ofindividual life forms that can be renewedthrough normal processes of reproduction. Nor issimply diminishing numbers.Nor is it damage that can somehow be remedied or for whichsome substitute canbe found. Nor is it something that only affects our own generation. Nor isit somethingthat could be remedied by some supernatural power. It is, rather, an absoluteandfinal act which there is no remedy on earth or in heaven. A species onceextinct, it's goneforever. However many generations succeed us in comingcenturies, none of them will ever seethis species that we extinguish.
Not onlyus we bring about extinction of life on a vast scale.We are also making theland and the air and sea so toxic that the very conditions of life arebeing destroyed.As regard natural resources ,not only are the none renewable resourcesbeingused up in a of frenzy of processing, consuming and disposing but we are alsoruiningmuch of our renewable resources. Such as the very solid self on which terrestriallife depends.The change that is taking place on the earth and in our minds isone of the greatest changesever to take place in human affairs. Perhaps thegreatest, since we are talking about is notsimply another historical change orcultural modification. But it change the geological andbiological as well as psychologicalorder of magnitude.
