On windy days, playground fights, (11) suicides and heart failures are more (12) frequent. In Geneva, traffic accidents (13) increase when a wind called the bise* blows. At the (14) request of patients, some Swiss and German hospitals (15) postpone surgery during the foehn.

It is human to ask what is (16) behind the wind. lt is easy to personify the wind as the (17) breath of God. The act of taking wind into our lungs is what (18) gives us life. The Jews, Arabs, Romans and Greeks all took their word for (19) spirit from the word for wind.

But our day-to-day lives are no longer (20 spirit the winds. We do not identify wind with spirit anymore.

Listening Comprehension

Part 1 Dialogue

What a Coincidence!

Storyteller: Talking of coincidences, did I tell you about what happened to me and Jeannie last holiday?

Friend(s):No.

Storyteller: We went on holiday in the States and we went to Mexico. Well, we were driving down to Mexico City. We were going to spend a few days in Palm Beach ... see the sea, look up an old friend, you know. As we left there we stopped at a garage for a car check ... oil, the water, the tires, all that ... petrol. And the mechanics spotted something. They said that our fuel pump was not working properly and it was quite serious ... it would cost a lot of money ... well, we were very worried.

Friend(s): Were you insured?

Storyteller: Well, no, we weren't and I didn't have that much money on me, you know. It was meant to be a cheap holiday. Well, just then, two men drove up and they said what's the problem? And, do you know? They were mechanics - it was such good luck. They looked at our car and they said, "There's nothing wrong with your car. Don't spend money on it. Just forget about it." Well, naturally, we were worried, but ... er, I thought ... I'll trust them, I think they're right. So, we drove on, we crossed the Mexican border and had a marvelous few days sightseeing there round Monterey.

Friend(s):Oh, oh, brilliant ... jealous ...

Storyteller: And then we went on and on to Mexico City. We drove about forty

kilometers and then we saw a car with the same US number plates as the other car we'd seen in Palm Beach.

Friend(s): You're joking!

Storyteller: It was parked by the road, and the same two men who gave us the advice about our car were stuck with their car.

Friend(s): Oh, no!

Storyteller: So, we stopped and asked them what was wrong. And do you know? Their car had broken down for exactly the same reason: The fuel pump wasn't working! It was quite extraordinary .

Part 2 Passage

Corporate Culture

1.How well the employee "fits" the culture can make the difference between

job-search success and failure.

2.It guides how employees think, act, and feel.

3.The amount of time outside the office you're expected to spend with co-workers is part of the corporate culture.

4.The truth is that you will never really know the corporate culture until you have worked at the company for a number of months.

5.It should be a place where you can have a voice, be respected, and have opportunities for growth.

Why should jobseekers care about a potential employer's corporate culture? Aren't there more important factors to consider, such as the job itself, salary and bonuses, and fringe benefits? These factors are indeed important, but increasingly career experts are talking about the importance of employee-employer fit in terms of culture, with the idea that how well the employee "fits" the culture can make the difference between job-search success and failure.

What is corporate culture? At its most basic, it's described as the personality of an organization, or simply as "how things are done around here". It guides how employees think, act, and feel. Corporate culture is a broad term used to define the unique personality or character of a particular company or organization, and includes such elements as core values and beliefs, corporate ethics, and rules of behavior. Corporate culture can be expressed in the company's mission statement and other communications, in the architectural style or interior decoration(室内装饰) of offices, by what people wear to work, by how people address each other, and in the titles given to various employees.

How does a company's culture affect you? In many, many ways. For instance:

?The hours you work per day, per week, including options such as flextime and telecommuting.

?The work environment, including how employees interact, the degree of competition, and whether it's a fun or hostile environment - or something in-between.

?The dress code, including the accepted styles of attire* and things such as casual days.

?The office space you get, including things such as cubicles*, window offices, and rules regarding display of personal items.

?The training and skills development you receive, which you need both on the job and to

keep yourself marketable for future jobs and employers.

?Onsite perks, such as break rooms, gyms and play rooms, daycare facilities, and more.

perk=perquisite n. 特殊待遇，特权；工资外收入

?The amount of time outside the office you're expected to spend

with co-workers.

? Interaction with other employees, including managers and top

management.

How do you uncover the corporate culture of a potential employer? The truth is that you will never really know the corporate culture until you have worked at the company for a number of months, but you can get close to it through research and observation. Understanding culture is a two-step process, starting with research before the interview and ending with observation at the interview.

If you get a chance to meet with other employees, you can ask some

questions to try and get

a handle on an organization's corporate culture. Such as:

?What's it really like to work here?

?What skills and characteristics does the company value?

?How do people get promoted around here?

?The bottom line is that you are going to spend a lot of time in the work environment ---and to be happy ,successful and productive, you’ll want to be in a place where you fit the culture ,a place where you can have a

voice ,be respect and have opportunity for growth .

Exercise A Pre-listening Question

Many articles and books have been written in recent years about culture in organizations, usually referred to as "Corporate Culture". The dictionary defines culture as "the act of developing intellectual and moral faculties, especially through education". Some people define it as "the moral, social, and behavioral norms of an organization based on the beliefs, attitudes, and priorities of its members".

Every organization has its own unique culture or value set. Most organizations don't consciously try to create a certain culture. The culture of the organization is typically created unconsciously, based on the values of the top management or the founders of an organization.

Exercise B Sentence Dictation

Directions: Listen to some sentences and write them down. You will hear each sentence three times

Exercise C Detailed Listening

Directions: Listen to the passage and complete the following paragraphs At its most basic, corporate culture is described as the personality of an organization. It guides how employees think, act, and feel. Corporate culture is a broad term used to define the unique personality or character of a particular company or organization, and includes such elements as core values and beliefs,

corporate ethics, and rules of behavior. Corporate culture can also be expressed

in the company's mission statement and other communications, in the architectural style or interior decoration of offices, by what people wear to work,

by how people address each other, and in the titles given to various employees.

A company's culture affects you in many ways, such as the working hours,

the work environment, the dress code, the office space you get, the training and

skills development you receive, onsite perks, the amount of time outside the

office you're expected to spend with co-workers and interaction with other employees, including managers and top management.

Exercise D After-listening Discussion

Directions: Listen to the passage again and discuss the following questions.

1.The truth is that you will never really know the corporate culture until you

Because of this, Mr. Brown said Britain is pledging $18 million worth of additional humanitarian aid in the form of food, water, shelter and sanitation that will directed at those being displaced in the northwest.

In addition to the aid, the prime minister said he expects much more cooperation between Britain and Pakistan over a wide range of issues. Mr. Brown said helping the effort to tackle terrorism in Pakistan and improving health and education there were important priorities for his government.

Israel-Palestine

Palestinian witnesses and security sources said some 30 tanks and armored personnel carriers drove into the Tulkarem refugee camp around 3 a.m. The army did not say whether the gunman responsible for the attack on the kibbutz*

was among those detained.

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement claimed responsibility for the killings. Mr Arafat says he has formed a committee to investigate the attack on the kibbutz.

In Tuesday's action, the Israeli military also demolished the home of a Palestinian militant (Mohammed Naifan) they say is responsible for sending the gunman into Kibbutz Metzer.

Israeli officials say the gunman came from Tulkarem but that he was following orders of AIAqsa leaders in Nablus. By midday Tuesday Palestinian witnesses were reporting that Israeli troops were gathering outside the West Bank town.

Israeli authorities say Palestinian militants from Fatah and Hamas in Nablus are behind a series of attacks against Israelis over the past few months.

The latest violence comes as US envoy* David Satterfield begins a visit to the region to work on a peace plan. He arrived in Israel Monday for separate talks with Israeli and Palestinian officials.

News Item 3

Officials say there are no easy, quick or purely military solutions to the Somali piracy problem. But the top U.S. military officer, Admiral Mike Mullen, told ABC's Good Morning America television program Tuesday the taking and rescue of the American cargo ship captain led him to order a new effort to find ways to effectively deal with the pirates. Admiral Mullen and Defense Secretary Robert Gates say there is no purely military solution to the Somali piracy problem. Piracy continues to rise, even as navy ships from 16 nations patrol the area. And Gates said Monday that the problem is "probably going to get worse" until the international community can, in his words, "get something on land that

begins to change the equation" for the "incredible number of poor people" in Somalia, some of whom turn to piracy.

Efforts by some ship owners to secure their ships have had some success. They have installed barbed wire, removed ladders and changed their routes, among other steps. But there has been resistance to proposals to put armed guards on commercial ships. Corporations have paid tens of millions of dollars for the safe return of ships and their crews in the area in recent years. Last year, there were 111 piracy incidents in the region, triple the number the previous year. And this year, there have already been nearly 70 incidents.

Supplementary Exercise

Part1 Feature Report

Iranian government TV says that the country's new nuclear energy chief, Ali Akbar Salehi is urging the West to end hostilities with Tehran and to start building trust.

"Legal and technical discussions about Iran's nuclear case have finished," he insists, "and there is no room left to keep this case open."

"We hope," he added, "that more efforts will be made [by the West] to obtain mutual confidence, instead of the last six years of hostility."

They were Salehi's first comments to the media, since being appointed by President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, Friday, following the resignation of veteran nuclear negotiator Gholam Reza Aghazadeh.

The soft-spoken Salehi was educated at the American University of Beirut and holds a doctorate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Salehi is Iran's former envoy to the International Atomic Energy Agency and signed a

protocol allowing for freer inspections of Iran's nuclear sites. His appointment appears to be something of a gesture to the U.S.

Neither the U.S., nor the other members of the so-called Group of five-plus-one, including the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, plus Germany, however, are likely to agree with Salehi about the closure of Tehran's nuclear file.

U.S. President Barack Obama warned Tehran, during the G-8 summit in Italy, that the world is giving it until September to comply with U.N. resolutions over its controversial nuclear program.

Iran has persistently refused to stop enriching uranium, and the West fears that it will use highly enriched uranium to build atomic weapons.

The Iranian government, however, continues to insist that its nuclear program is intended for peaceful, civilian purposes, alone.

Iran analyst Meir Javedanfar of the MEEPAS (Middle East Economic and Political Analysis) center in Tel Aviv argues that Tehran is hardening its position over its nuclear dossier, in response to Western criticism over its violent crackdown against its own people following the June 12 presidential elections.

"I think Ayatollah Khamenei is sending the message that the more we are pushed on other fronts, the more we're going to adjust the balance in our favor, and one area is the nuclear program, because Khamenei knows how important the nuclear program is to the West, especially to President Obama," he said.

"So, I think this is kind of a backlash against what Iran sees as Western interference in its own affairs. I also think that the Iranian government still sees the West as divided and there's not much the West can do at the moment to stop Iran's nuclear program, so they're toughening their policy and they want to see what the reaction will be, if the reaction is going to be hard or if the West is going to come up with an even [better] offer," he added.

Javedanfar, however, believes that those who are seeking a compromise with Iran should not despair completely, because Iranian leaders are pragmatists, and may at the end of the day be ready for an agreement.

Iranian Foreign Minister Manuchehr Motaki said one week ago that Tehran was preparing to present a "new package" of proposals, concerning what he called "international, security and political issues," to the West for talks.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has also warned the West that Tehran would weigh their criticism over its crackdown on protesters following the June 12 election, in assessing future relations with their countries. A．This news report is about Salehi’s and the Iranian government’s attitude towards nuclear case.

B: Directions: Listen to the program again and complete the followin g sentences.

Part 2 Passage

Globalization

1)The World Trade Organization is among the most powerful, and one of the

most secretive international bodies on earth.

2)Globalization is not a phenomenon. It is not just some passing trend.

3)Used properly, fire can cook food, sterilize equipment, form iron, and heat

our homes. Used carelessly, it can destroy lives, towns and forests in an

instant.

4)Globalization has dangers and an ugly dark side. But it can also bring

tremendous opportunities and benefits.

5)They will see globalization not as something to worship or demonize. Instead,

they will see it as something to mold, shape and manage for the betterment of everyone.

Globalization is the present worldwide drive toward a globalized economic system dominated by supranational* corporate trade and banking institutions that are not accountable to democratic processes or national governments.

The World Trade Organization (WTO) is among the most powerful, and one of the most secretive international bodies on earth. It is rapidly assuming the role of global government, as 134 nation-states, including the US, have ceded* to its vast authority and powers. The WTO represents the rules-based regime of the policy of economic globalization. The central operating principle of the WTO is that commercial interests should supersede* all others. Any obstacles in the path of operations and expansion of global business enterprise must be subordinated. In practice these "obstacles" are usually policies or democratic processes that act on behalf of working people, labor rights, environmental protection, human rights, consumer rights, social justice, local culture, and national sovereignty.

Globalization is not a phenomenon. It is not just some passing trend. Today it is an overarching international system shaping the domestic politics and foreign relations of virtually every country, and we need to understand it as such.

As thoughtful people concerned about world affairs, our job is to pick up "globalization", examine it from all sides, dissect* it, figure out what makes it

tick, and then nurture and promote the good parts and mitigate* or slow down the bad parts. Globalization is much like fire.

Fire itself is neither good nor bad. Used properly, it can cook food, sterilize equipment, form iron, and heat our homes. Used carelessly, fire can destroy lives, towns and forests in an instant. As Friedman* says:

"Globalization can be incredibly empowering and incredibly coercive*. It can democratize opportunity and democratize panic. It makes the whales bigger and the minnows* stronger. It leaves you behind faster and faster, and it catches up to you faster and faster. While it is homogenizing* cultures, it is also enabling people to share their unique individuality farther and wider."

Globalization has dangers and an ugly dark side. But it can also bring tremendous opportunities and benefits. Just as capitalism requires a network of governing systems to keep it from devouring societies, globalization requires vigilance and the rule of law.

Antitrust laws, the Securities and Exchange Commission, labor unions, charities, the Federal Trade Commission, and countless other agencies and organizations keep American capitalism in check. Similar transparent mechanisms are needed to make sure globalization is a positive force in the world.

Globalization will always have cheerleaders who are blind to the destruction globalization can cause. And it will always have strident* opponents blind to the way globalization gives some people their first opportunity to fulfill basic

aspirations.

As with most issues, the majority of people will be in the middle. They will see globalization not as something to worship or demonize. Instead, they will see it as something to mold, shape and manage for the betterment of everyone.

Exercise D After-listening Discussion

Directions: Listen to the passage again and discuss the following questions.

1. Milton Friedman says, "Globalization can be incredibly empowering and incredibly coercive. It can democratize opportunity and democratize panic. It makes the whales bigger and the minnows stronger. It leaves you behind faster and faster, and it catches up to you faster and faster. While it is homogenizing cultures, it is also enabling people to share their unique individuality farther and wider."

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.

全新版大学英语听说教程第三册听力原文及答案 Unit 1 Part B Text 1 Dating with My Mother (Part One) 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. Exercise 1: 1. c 2. a 3.b Questions: 1.
