that her mum can be operate in time and spread this scene on news so as to social assistancs.If she doesn`t turn bace the purse,although her mum have money to operate,The owner will too be anxious.it will hurt the owner

don`t want to go,you tell her you are going out of town.If you encounter this secen what do you do next?

S：much about works

P：Oh，I think you are under pressure,I suggest that you can listen to some light music,it useful of sleeping quickly.

S：yes?I would like to have a try.

P：I have known much about the cause for sleep.working too much is the main cause.people

today are very busy,they are working more and more hours everyday.as a result there is less time do other thinks.like read or pay bill or clean hourse,so people stay up later and get less sleep.

S：You seem to say that this is what I encounter questions.I heard that modern technology is another cause.now everything is turned on 24hours a day.think about it——we have electric

lights,TV,and the internet,you can watch TV or listen to music or work on the computer any time ,and that makes us stay up later.

P：yes,you are also right,I think this cause will lead to some effects.this is mistakes at work.without enough sleep,we don`t function well——we don`t have enough energy and we can not always think very clearly.

S：By the way,I think another consequence of sleep deprivation is car accidents.and what can you do to sleep better at night?I want to know the way to sleep well. P：I think that drinking herbal tea and sleeping in a quiet room is useful of resting.we cannot eat a lot before bed and sleep in an un comfortable bed.

Unit 10 negotiating for success

P：have you encounter this scene about negotiation techniques?

S：I often conflict at work,for example.after I do some wrong,my co-worker will angry and upset.meanwhile,they won`t want to communicate with you.

P：Oh，I think that you never use proper negotiation techniques.

S：well, Can you explain it to me deeply?

P：avoiding to blame is meaning that you should ues I statement.For example I am worried because the work isn`t done so that the co-worker will not angry.

S：maybe that is a good ideal.but when it have a different view about the communication or when a negotiation doesn`t work.what shall we do next?

P：um,most problems can be solved with enough time and communication.No problems are caused by the way the people on both sides feel about the negotiation.

S：anything else?

P：by the way, you need to avoid anything that will make people feel angry or upset.

S：OK，I will better next negotiation.I suddently think an example that a couple are deciding

where to go on vacation.the husband wants to go skiing and wife wants to go to the beach.what do they choose and do some negotiation?

P：on one hand,being careful of mode and attitude of saying is important for the couple.

On the other hand,telling what you will worry about and be afraid of skiing or going to beach is crucial for negotiation.

S：oh,by the way,I think everything has its two side ,the couple should not enlarge the contradiction and blame each other.they may arrange for two vacations.

P：yes,you are right ,I also set an example for explaining this scene.if the project is going to be late because of you,you should avoid disputing.and you will keep calm and avoid blame.

S：what about saying that I am afraid that the project will be late?

P：of course,if you do this ,the conflict at work will decrease. you will take in this lesson and example.

Unit 11 risking it

P：do you heart perceived risk and actual risk?

S：yes,I know little about them.perceived risk is the way a person thinks about risk.

P：ah,I heard a example that many people drive a car each day,but they don`t worry about it

very much.what do you think?

S:well,they know that there is a risk of an accident,but most people will not say they are afraid of driving.

P：Yeah, absolutely，the perceived risk of driving is low，by the way,many people worry about flying.

S：Why?

P：they afraid that airplane will have an accident and crash.

S：you mean that the perceived risk of flying is high

P：yeah,you are right.do you watch tv about recently Malaysia Airlines accidents?

S：sure, Widespread news are reported in TV and newspaper.but I still think the plane`s accident is a small probability event.

P：In fact,the actual risk of driving a car is high,but the actual risk of flying is low

S：why?

P：because many more people are injured in car accidents that in plane accidents.

S：well,I feel that the circumstances will change perceived risk.we have more control,we feel

there is less risk of driving a car.however,when we fly in the sky,we don’t control it,so we feel it is more risky.what do you think?

P：Ｉthink that the risk is natural versus unnatural.when a risk is natural,we feel that there is

less risk.and when risk is an everyday activity,we feel that there is less risk. ,I have a problem that why some activities have a higher perceived risk or a higher actual risk?

S：we usually participate some activities that many people carry out it each day.Although,they

know that there is a potential risk,most people will not be afraid of these activities.In the case,some activities probably have a higher actual risk.

P：on the contrary.A perceived risk stems from many people who are worried about these

activities.Under the circumstances,some activities have a higher perceived risk.

TEACHER: Patricia, right, Patricia. Those are all beautiful names, and that's our topic today-names. Names are a culture universal. This means everyone uses names. A person's name can tell us a bit about a person's family. Today, we’ll begin by looking at first names and how people choose names for their children.

There are several ways parents choose the first name for their child. The first way is by family history. Parents may choose a name because it is passed from generation to generation; for example, the first born son might be named after his father or grandfather. Although family names are also passed to daughters, it is usually as a middle name. Adding "junior" or "the second" for example, William Parker the se conds only done with boys', not with girls’names. The second way parents choose a name is after a family member or friend who has died recently, or after someone "they admire, like a well-known leader or a famous musician. Although most English first names mean something, for example, "Richard" means powerful and “Ann" means grace, nowadays meaning is not the main reason people select their baby's name.

Unit 2 Hew Kinds of Food Part 1 Teacher: Hi, everybody…how's it going? ... Good.…Has everyone turned in their homework? Allrighty, then let's get started. IF you remember, last weekwe were discussing some research in the area of genetics.Today, I'd like to talkabout something I'm sure you've allheard about-genetically modified or "GM" food. Genetically modified food is food--either a plant or animal--that has been altered in the laboratory by scientists. The scientists take something from one plant oranimal, and add it to a different plant or animal to makeit grow in a different way. Today, we'll look at some of the benefits, and the possible risks of genetically modified fond. Let's start with a discussion of some of the benefits ofGM food. Genetic scientists are really trying to makefood plants that are better than normal plants, to makeplants that are altered inways that make the plant grow better or taste better or be healthier to eat than normalplants. One benefit is that genetically modified plants may needfewer pesticides than normal plants. For example, thereis a type of corn that is bad for insects--when the insectseat the corn plant, they die. However, the corn doesn'thurt people. This type of corn is beneficial because farmers use fewer pesticides to grow the corn, and so there isless pollution in the environment. Also the corn is lessexpensive because the farmers don't have to spend a lot ofmoney on pesticides. So, by using fewer pesticides, the corn is cheaper and the environment is cleaner. Another benefit of genetically modified plants is that theymay grow better than normal plants. One example is a type of genetically modified strawberry that can grow incold weather. These are better than normal strawberriesbecause farmers can plantthe strawberries earlier in thespring and later in the fall, when normal strawberries usually die. So, as a result,

1文： 老师：早上好，大家。早上好，菲利佩，莫妮卡，提奥，我不记得你的名字。学生1：帕特丽夏。老师：帕特丽夏，对，帕特丽夏。那些都是美丽的名字，这是我们今天的主题的名字。名字是一种文化的普遍性。这意味着每个人都使用名字。一个人的名字可以告诉我们一些关于一个人的家庭。今天，我们将开始通过寻找第一个名字和人们如何选择他们的孩子的名字。然后我们会谈论家庭的名字，看看不同类别的家庭名称。虽然今天的讲座的范围是英语的名字，我们可以使用同样的方法，你知道，从任何文化看的名称。让我们先简要看看，或给定的名称。有几种方法家长为孩子选择第一个名字。第一种方式是由家族史。父母可以选择一个名字，因为它是通过一代一代的；例如，第一个出生的儿子可能会以他的父亲或祖父的名字命名。虽然家庭的名字也传递给女儿，它通常是作为一个中间名。添加“初中”或“第二个”为例，威廉帕克只做了几秒钟的男孩'，而不是与女孩的名字。父母选择一个名字的第二种方式是在一个家庭成员或朋友最近去世后，或有人“他们钦佩，像一个著名的领袖或著名的音乐家。虽然大多数英文名字的意思是什么，例如，“李察”意味着强大和“安”意味着恩典，现在的意义不是主要原因，人们选择他们的婴儿的名字。第三种方法是为孩子提供一个“推”。家长想选择一个听起来很“成功”的名字，一个强大的名字可能会帮助他们在商业世界，例如。或者他们可以选择一个名字，不论男女，像泰勒和特里。因此，鉴于这三种方法，什么是最常见的方式家长选择一个名称。许多家长选择一个名字，只是因为他们喜欢它，或因为它是时尚或经典。在名字的变化就像他们在衣服。一百年前，许多名字来自圣经的名字，如丹尼尔，安娜，和汉娜和马修。然后五十年前，圣经的名字就不流行了。如今，圣经的名字也越来越受欢迎了。同样，父母经常选择经典的名字，在1900，1950流行的名字，现在仍然很受欢迎。男孩的经典名字包括托马斯、戴维、罗伯特和米迦勒。对于女孩们：安娜、伊丽莎白、艾米丽和凯瑟琳，只是举几个。他们是经典的。他们从来没有走出风格。让我们在起源上看名字，也被称为姓氏或姓氏。研究人员已经研究了成千上万的最后的名字，他们把他们分为四类。类别：地名，patronymics，添加名称和职业名称。最近的一项调查表明，目前在美国最受欢迎的7000个名字，百分之43是地名，百分之32是patronymics，百分之15是职业的名称，并新增百分之9名。第一类是地名。地名通常是指一个人生活或工作的地方。有人叫约翰山住在一个小山附近，例如，和河流的家人住在一条河附近。如果你听到艾玛桥的名字，你看到了什么形象。你看到一个住在桥附近的家庭吗 如果你这样做，你得到的想法。第二类是patronymics。这是p-a-t-r-o-n-y-m-i-c-s.一姓是父亲的名字，另加一个结束像s-e-n或s-o-n.结束意味着一个孩子，一个男孩，是他父亲的儿子。的名字，罗伯森，彼得森，威尔逊是patronymics。罗伯森是罗伯特的儿子，彼得森是皮特的儿子，等等。第三类是添加名称。语言学家有时称这类”的绰号，“但当我们大多数人听到这个词”的绰号，“我们认为特殊名字的朋友或父母可能使用。“昵称”这个词实际上是一个古老的英文单词，意思是一个额外的名字，一个额外的名字。因此，我将使用术语“添加名称”这一类的姓氏是有趣的，因为名称通常描述了一个人。芦苇，鲍德温和比格斯的例子。瑞德是红头发的“红”。他是个秃头，他很少或没有头发。和比格斯。 是的，有人大，对。现在，如果我们环顾房间，我们可能会想出一些新的姓氏，如，嗯。卷

Unit 2 第一部分 老师：大家好……过得如何……很好……每个人都交作业了吗？好的，那么让我们开始吧。如果你记得，上星期我们讨论了一些遗传学领域的研究。今天我想去谈论关于一些，我确定你们都听说过——转基因的食物。转基因食物是食物——不是植物就是动物——在实验室被科学家改变的食物。科学家把一种植物或者动物里的一些东西加到另一种不同的植物或动物里去让它以不同的方式长大。今天我们来看一些关于转基因食物的益处和有可能的风险。 让我们开始讨论一些转基因食物的益处，遗传学科学家真的是尽力去制作植物食物，比普通植物更好的植物食物，去制作植物，用一种方式去改变的食物，让植物比普通植物长得更好或者吃起来更好或者吃起来更健康的方式。 一个好处是转基因植物会需要更少量的农药比普通植物。例如，有一种玉米，对昆虫来说是坏的玉米——当昆虫吃这个玉米，它们就死了。然而这种玉米不会伤害人类。这种玉米是有好处的，因为农名使用更少的农药去让玉米成熟，并且对环境的污染更少。而且这个玉米是便宜的，因为农民不需要去花费大量的钱在农药上。因此，通过使用少量的农药，这个玉米更加便宜和环境更干净。 另一个好处关于转基因植物是他们会长得更好比普通的植物。一个例子是一种转基因草莓，可以在冬天生长的草莓。这更好比普通的草莓，因为农民可以在春天更早的并且在秋天晚些时候种植这种草莓，当普通的草莓通常死掉的时候。因此，结果，农民可以比平时种植更多的草莓。因此另一种益处是植物长得更好。 最后，第三个好处是很多的转基因食物可以保鲜更久在采摘之后。因此，例如，有一种土豆，可以在商店保鲜两个月的土豆而不是一或两星期。这意味着有更多的时间去把食物送到商店并且去让这种食物去售卖。更少的食物被扔掉和浪费。因此，这是一个很大的好处去使食物保鲜更久——并且我们可以消费更多我们种植的食物。 第二部分 老师：现在我们已经看了一些转基因植物的益处，让我们来讨论一下这种食物的种植的危害。我们不是真正的知道这种有害的影响是什么，但是这有几件事情，可能需要去担心的事情。 第一个危害是，转基因植物可能开始支配其他野生植物在自然中。这是一个问题关于一些种类的土豆，例如。这种新品种土豆是很强壮的比普通植物，并且因为他们比野生植物更强壮，长得更快，这种转基因土豆开始支配环境，导致野生植物死去。因此让一种植物支配其他所有植物对环境不好。 另一种危害是转基因植物将会伤害野生动物和昆虫在自然中。例如，这种转基因玉米，我之前提到的，已经导致了这个问题。现在，一些蝴蝶，住在这种玉米附近的蝴蝶正在死亡——蝴蝶是益虫，并且它不吃玉米。可能是这种玉米杀死了舞蝶以某种方式，但是我们并不确定。我们仅仅知道更多的蝴蝶正在死亡，比以往。但是，无疑的这种危害，转基因食物带来的，可以伤害动物和昆虫在大自然中。 然而，可能地最重要的危害是转基因食物可能对人有害，消费这种食物的人。这种改变在植物中可能会造成严肃的问题对人们——我们只是不知道。科学家们正在尝试所有种类的新东西，例如把动物的基因放在植物中。例如，去使水果比如草莓保鲜更久，科学家们得到一个鱼的基因——这种基因可以帮助鱼住在寒冷的水里——并且放进草莓里。将来的那种草莓对人有害吗？我们不知道，但是它可能发生。 因此，这是无疑的，有一些重要的好处对于转基因食物但是也有一些危害，很多人不愿意承担的危害。所以让我们在这停一下，并且谈论一些问题你所想到的问题，在这个事情上……
