Part 1

B

1.Woman: This is my family. I'm married. My husband's name is Bill. We have two children — a boy and a girl. Our little girl is six years old, and our little boy is four. Jennie goes to kindergarten, and Aaron goes to nursery school. My father lives with us. Grandpa's great with the kids. He loves playing with them and taking them to the park or the zoo.

2.Man: This is a picture of me and my three sons. We're at a soccer game. Orlando is twelve, Louis is ten, and Carlos is nine. All three of them really like sports. Orlando and Louis play baseball. Carlos is into skating.

3.Man: This is my wife June, and these are my three children. Terri on the right is the oldest. She's in high school. She's very involved in music. She's in the orchestra. Rachel — she's the one in the middle — is twelve now. And this is my son Peter. He's one year older than Rachel. Rachel and Peter are both in junior high school. Time really flies. June and I have been married for twenty years now.

4.Woman: This is a picture of me with my three kids. The girls, Jill and Anne, are both in high school. This is Jill on the right. She'll graduate next year. Anne is two years younger. My son Dan is in college. It seems

like the kids are never home. I see them for dinner and sometimes on Saturday mornings, but that's about it. They're really busy and have a lot of friends.

C

Woman: Well, my brother was six years younger than I, and er, I think that when he was little I was quite jealous of him. I remember he had beautiful red curls (mm) ... my mother used to coo over him. One day a friend and I played, erm, barber shop, and, erm, my mother must have been away, she must have been in the kitchen or something (mm) and we got these scissors and sat my brother down and kept him quiet and (strapped him down) ... That's right, and cut off all his curls, you see. And my mother just was so upset, and in fact it's the first ... I think it’s one of the few times I've ever seen my father really angry.

Man: What happened to you?

Woman: Oh ... I was sent to my room for a whole week you know, it was terrible.

Man But was that the sort of pattern, weren't you close to your brother at all?

Woman: Well as I grew older I think that er I just ignored him ... Man: What about ... you've got an older brother too, did ... were they close, the two brothers?

Woman: No, no my brother's just a couple of years older than I ... so the two of us were closer and we thought we were both very grown up and he was just a ... a kid ... so we deliberately, I think, kind of ignored him. And then I left, I left home when he was only still a schoolboy, he was only fifteen (mm) and I went to live in England and he eventually went to live in Brazil and I really did lose contact with him for a long time.

Man: What was he doing down there?

Woman: Well, he was a travel agent, so he went down there to work ... And, erm, I didn't, I can't even remember, erm sending a card, even, when he got married. But I re ... I do remember that later on my mother was showing me pictures of his wedding, 'cause my mother and father went down there (uh huh) to the wedding, and er, there was this guy on the photos with a beard and glasses, and I said,"Oh, who's this then?" 'cause I thought it was the bride's brother or something like this (mm) ... and my mother said frostily, "That ... is your brother!" (laughter)

Questions for memory test:

1. According to the passage, how many brothers does the lady have?

2. When the sister saw her mother coo over her younger brother, how did she feel?

3. What's her father's reaction when he got to know that the sister had cut off her younger brother's hair?

4. How old was her younger brother when she left home?

5. Where did her brother eventually live?

6. Who was the guy on the photos with a beard and glasses?

PART 2

A and B

Radio presenter: Good afternoon. And welcome to our midweek Phone-In. In today's program we' re going to concentrate on personal problems. And here with me in the studio I've got Tessa Colbeck, who writes the...in Flash magazine, and Doctor Maurice Rex, Student Medical Adviser at the University of Norfolk.

The number to ring with your problem is oh one, if you are outside London, two two two, two one two two. And we have our first caller on the line, and it’s Rosemary, I think, er calling from Manchester. Hello, Rosemary.

Rosemary: Hello.

Radio presenter: How can we help you, Rosemary?

Rosemary:Well it’s my dad. He won’t let me stay out after ten o'clock at night and all my friends can stay out much longer than that. I always have to go home first. It's really embarrassing...

Tessa: Hello, Rosemary, love. Rosemary, how old are you, dear? Rosemary: I'm fifteen in two month's time.

Tessa: And where do you go at night?--When you go out?

Rosemary: Just to my friend's house, usually. But everyone else can stay there much later than me. I have to leave at about a quarter to ten. Tessa: And does this friend of yours-does she live near you? Rosemary: It takes about ten minutes to walk from her house to ours. Tessa: I see. You live in Brighton, wasn’t it? Well ,Brighton’s…Rosemary: No, Manchester…I live in Manchester.

Tessa: oh. I’m sorry, love. I’m getting mixed up. Yes, well Manchester's quite a rough city, isn't it ? I mean, your dad...

Rosemary: No, not really. Not where we live, it isn’t. I don't live in the City Center or anything like that. And Christine's house is in a very quiet part.

Tessa: Christine. That's your friend, is it?

Rosemary: Yeah. That's right. I mean, I know my dad gets worried but it’s perfectly safe.

Maurice: Rosemary. Have you talked about this with your dad? Rosemary: No. He just shouts and then he says he won't let me go out at all if I can't come home on time.

Maurice: Why don't you just try to sit down quietly with your dad-- sometime when he's relaxed--and just have a quiet chat about it? He’ll probably explain why he worries about you. It isn't always safe for young girls to go out at night.

Tessa: Yes. And maybe you could persuade him to come and pick you up

from Christine's house once or twice.

Rosemary: Yes .I don't think he'll agree to that, but I'll talk to him about it . Thanks.

Part 3

Josephine: We did feel far more stability in our lives, because you see ... in these days I think there's always a concern that families will separate or something, but in those days nobody expected the families to separate.

Gertrude: Of course there may have been smoking, drinking and drug-taking years ago, but it was all kept very quiet, nobody knew anything about it. But these days there really isn't the family life that we used to have. The children seem to do more as they like whether they know it's right or wrong. Oh, things are very different I think. Question: What was your parents' role in family life?

Josephine:Well, my mother actually didn't do a tremendous amount in the house, but she did do a great deal of work outside and she was very interested, for example, in the Nursing Association collecting money for it. We had somebody who looked after us and then we also had someone who did the cleaning.

Gertrude: Well, we lived in a flat, we only had three rooms and a bathroom. Father worked on the railway at Victoria Station and my mother didn't work, obviously. My father's wage I think was about two

pounds a week and I suppose our rent was about twelve shillings a week, you know as rent was - I'm going back a good many years. We didn't have an easy life, you know and I think that's why my mother went out so much with her friends. It was a relief for her, you know really. Question: Did you have a close relationship with your parents? Josephine: In a sense I would say not very close but we, at that time, didn't feel that way, we didn't think about it very much I don't think. I think today people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything, which we didn't. Then, of course, we used to play a lot of games, because we didn't have a television or even a radio and we would play games in the evenings rather than have conversation, I think. Question:Was there more discipline in families in those days? Josephine:Oh yes, I do think so, yes. We were much more disciplined and we went about as a family and it wasn't until I was probably about 18 before I would actually go out with any friends of my own.

Statements:

1. Seventy years ago young people often smoked and drank in front of others.

2. Apart from a great deal of work outside, Josephine's mother also looked after her children and did the cleaning in the house.

3. Gertrude's father earned two pounds a week.

4. Gertrude's family had to pay ten shillings a week for their flat.

5. Young people seventy years ago deeply felt that they did not have a very close relationship with their parents.

6. Nowadays people are much closer to their parents and talk about everything to them.

Part 4

Q: Parent Link is an organization that looks at the problems that parents and children face. Its director, Tim Kahn, told us about the changing roles of parents and children.

T: The authoritarian model was one in which the child had no rights and I guess in the 60s and perhaps the 70s many people rejected that and we had the sort of the permissive era---the age where many parents felt they had to allow their children to do whatever they wanted to do and so in a sense the roles were reversed and it was the children who were the bosses and the parents who ran around behind them. The ideas that we offer to parents are kind of a third position in which we’re looking at equals, where parents and children are different but equal.

Q: What about changes in the male-female roles?

T:Society has changed a lot. As well as technology leading to great changes, people’s roles have changed very much, in particular the women’s movement has very much questioned the role of women and led many women to demand a freer choice about who they are and how they

can be. There’s a lot of frustration with how men haven’t changed, and it seems to me that the more the frustration is expressed the more stuck in and being the same men are and we need to find ways of appreciating men for the amount of work that they have to do in being bread-winners and providers for families and appreciating the efforts men are making to be more involved with their children.

Q: Are there any changes you would like to see in the attitude to family life in Britain?

T:In the past there were arranged marriages and I wonder if part of having an arranged marriage is knowing that you have to work at it to create the love and that now people are getting married out of love and there’s a kind of feeling that yo ur love is there and it will stay there for ever and we don’t have to work at it and when it gets tricky we don’t know how to work at it and so we opt out. I think helping people learn to work at their relationships to make their relationship work would be a significant thing that I’d like to see happening.

Part 5

B

Louisa:She doesn't let me watch that much TV after school, which is really annoying because most of my friends watch Home and Away and Neighbors but I only get to watch one of them. I sometimes don't —I mean I think that's really unfair so sometimes I just watch both anyway.

Mother:First and foremost, Louisa watches a fair amount of television whether she thinks she's deprived or not, she must watch at least 45 minutes per day. And when I'm not around you know I know the child sneaks in a fair amount more than that. So she gets in a fair amount of television, certainly on the weekends. But I am of the opinion that television, very very very few programs will teach them anything. And I think when a child is under your care for 18 years it's the parents' responsibility to make sure that the input is of value, and I don't think television, much television is of any value at all, I think reading a book and doing her piano lessons are far more valuable than watching crummy American soap operas.

Questions for memory test:

1. How many TV plays are mentioned?

2. For how long a time does Louisa watch TV per day?

3. Does Louisa try to get more time to watch TV?

4. Which activities does Louisa's mother think are far more valuable?

C

My parents gave me a lot of free time. After dinner, during the week when I was say even 15 years old they would let me go out until ten

o'clock and they would never ask where I went. I would smoke cigarettes and drink beer, at 15 years old I would hang out in the ... in the local pubs and these were type of things that I don't think were too good for me at that time. I think my parents should have, you know, maybe at least showed an interest as to where I was going. They never even asked where I was going and they, they gave me a lot of free time, and I think that they, they felt that this was a thing that was being a good parent. But I think that teenagers are very naive, and I was as a teenager very naive, and I think I could have used a little more direction from them. These days a lot of parents think they should be lenient with their children, they should let them grow and experience on their own. And I think that's what my parents were doing, I think there's a Biblical saying "Spare the rod, spoil the child" and I think that really applies. And I think you need to direct especially young people. They can be thrown into such a harsh world, especially if you live in a city. I lived in a very small village and it was still a rough crowd that I found in that village. And my parents never asked questions, and if they only knew they would be shocked.

Statements:

1. When the boy was 15 years old, he could stay out until ten o'clock.

2. At the age of 15, the boy was not allowed to smoke cigarettes or drink beer.

3. The boy thought his parents were very good because they gave him a lot of free time.

4. The boy lived in a very crowded city.

英语听力教程(第2册)Unit 5 听力原文

Unit 5 听力原文 Part I B Man: I suppose my career’s a bit unusual because I went to university when I was twenty-five — a lot later than most people go. When I left school, I went straight out to work: I worked as a clerk in a small office. My father criticized me, I remember, for not going on studying while I had the chance, but I wanted to earn myself some money. Anyway, that job didn’t last long because I had to go into the army when I was twenty. I stayed in for five years. I don’t know what good my university course did because I’m unemployed now. Oh, I know I got a job when I finished my university course — I was twenty-nine then — but it didn’t last long. Well, I never really thought I would enjoy teaching very much. So, as I say, I’m unemployed now and looking for something else. C Interviewer: Sergio. Thank you for agreeing to this interview. How old are you? Sergio: Um, I’m fifty-one. Interviewer: and what is your profession? Sergio: I’m an accountant. Interviewer: Are you married? Sergio: Yes, I’m married. Interviewer: Does your wife work? Sergio: Yes, luckily. She’s a teacher. Interviewer: Could you tell me about your last job? Who did you work for? Sergio: Um. I worked for a chemical company near Milan. Interviewer: How long did you work there? Sergio: Um, for fourteen years. Interviewer: How did you lose your job? Sergio: The company was taken over by a Swedish firm and I was made redundant. Interviewer: So, how long have you been unemployed? Sergio: Um, for about 6 months. Interviewer: So, Sergio. It must be difficult being unemployed at your age. Sergio: Of course. Many people don’t want to employ someone over fifty. Interviewer: So how do you spend your days? Sergio: I get the newspaper every day and look at the job advertisements. When I see something interesting I apply. Interviewer: Any luck so far? Sergio: Yes, I was offered something last month, but the job was not very interesting. Interviewer: Do you meet other unemployed people? Sergio:Not really. Um, I prefer to stay at home and work on my PC. I’m also studying psychology. Interviewer: That’s an interesting idea. What else do you do? Sergio: I have lunch with my former colleagues about once a month. They often hear about jobs and so on. They often have useful information. Interviewer: Have you registered with a recruitment agency? Sergio: No, I haven’t. I think they already have too many people on their books.

Part2 Listening and Note-talking Driving Carefully
Drive carefully and slowly when pedestrians are about, particularly in crowded shopping streets, when you see a bus stopped, or near a parked mobile shop. Watch out for pedestrians coming from behind parked or stopped vehicles, or from other places where you might not be able to see them.
Three out of four pedestrians killed or seriously injured are either under fifteen or over sixty. The young and elderly may not judge speeds very well, and may step into the road when you do not expect them. Give them, and the infirm, or blind, or disabled people, plenty of time to cross the road.
Drive slowly near schools, and look out for children getting on or off school buses. Stop when signalled to do so by a school crossing patrol showing a Stop-Children sign. Be careful near a parked ice-cream van—children are more interested in ice-cream then in traffic.
When coming to a zebra crossing. be ready to slow down or stop to let people cross. You must give way once they have stepped onto a crossing. Signal to other drivers that you mean to slow down or stop. Give yourself more time to slow down or stop on wet or icy roads. Never overtake just before a zebra crossing.
Exercise A: 1. Drive carefully and slowly when pedestrians are about. 2. Three out of four pedestrians killed are either under fifteen or over sixty. 3. Be careful near a parked ice-cream van—children are more interested in ice-cream

Unit 6-Conversation 1 Janet: What are you reading, Kate Kate:Alice in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. Do you know it Janet: I've heard of it, yes, but I've never read it. It's a 19th century children's story, isn't it K a te: That's right. It's very famous. It's set in Oxford. It starts with this young girl sitting on a river bank. The interesting thing is, the author, Lewis Carroll, he was an Oxford professor and he used to have tea with the girl's family on this river bank. Ja net: Oh, that's fascinating! I'll put it into my diary. Kate: Is that what you're writing I know you've been keeping a diary all the year. Janet: It's been a great year. I've had such a good time — so lucky to have Mark and Kate as friends. Feel I've been doing well with work. Much happier about asking questions in tutorials. Janet: My screen's gone dark. Mark: You're using the battery, remember. It's run out, obviously. Janet: It can't be the battery. It's still charged. Oh no it's still black. Oh dear, I hope it's nothing serious. I haven't backed anything up recently. Kate: That's not like you, Janet. Janet:I know, but I lost my memory stick. I really should have backed things up. How stupid of me not to do that! Supposing I've lost everything! Mark: Let me take a look. The power is still on. And also the operating system still seems to be working ... I think it has to be the graphics card ... But maybe that's not the problem ... Janet: If only I'd backed things up! Kate: Relax, Janet! We'll take it to the computer shop this afternoon. I'm sure it'll be OK. Janet: I hope so. Unit 6-Conversation 2 Janet: Tell me about Alice in Wonderland. Kate: I tell you what, I'll read it to you. Kate: Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank and having nothing to do: Once or twice, she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversation" So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid) ... Janet: Kate, Mark, where are you going You've got my laptop! Kate: It's all right, Janet, we're taking it to the computer shop. We'll be back soon. Mark: It's not like Janet to forget to back up her work. Kate: She should have been more careful. Janet: It was stupid of me, I know! Stupid, stupid! Janet: Oh! It was a dream! What a relief! Kate: You were talking in your sleep. Janet: What was I saying Kate: "Stupid, stupid." M ark: I've sorted out your computer. Janet: Have you Oh, thank goodness! What was the problem Mark:It was the graphics card, as I predicted ... Janet: Is that what it was! I'm so relieved! Thanks, Mark. Kate: He's great, isn't he Janet: Yes. So are you, Kate. Kate: You're such a good friend. Unit 6-Outside view Computers are a very important part of our lives. They tell us about delays to transport. They drive trains, analyze evidence and control buildings. Did you know that 60 per cent of homes in Britain have got a PC (a personal computer) For many young people, playing computer games is their favorite way of spending spare time. Computers are a very important part of most areas of life in Britain-libraries, the police and in school. But they are becoming more important in our homes as well. They’ll even control the way we live-in “smart homes” or computer-controlled houses. The smart home is now a real possibility. It will become very common. A central computer will adjust the temperature, act as a burglar alarm and switch on lights, ready for you to come back home. And of course you will be able to give new instructions to the computer from your mobile phone. So if your plans change, your home will react to match. Many homes have got lots of televisions and several computers. The smart home will provide TV and Internet sockets in every room, so you’ll be able to do what you want whenever you want. If the temperature outside changes, the smart home will adjust the temperature levels inside. The computer will also close the blinds when it gets dark or to stop so much sun from entering a room. And if you want to eat when you get home, the computer will turn the oven on for you! Are computers taking over our lives In a survey, 44 per cent of young people between 11 and 16 said their PC was a trusted friend. Twenty per cent said they were happier at their computer than spending time with family or friends. Another survey found that people in Britain spend so much time on the phone, texting and reading emails that they no longer have time for conversation. What do you think about that Unit 6-Listening in
