Listening —Speaking Book 3

Unit 6

Warm Up

1. Young-Hae: I think teachers who work in the United States and the UK should be native speakers of English.

2. There are so many varieties of English that I can never be an expert in all of them.

3. English has a lot of slang. How am I supposed to know that a “hot” pair of jeans means the same thing as a “cool” pair of jeans?

4. I would be worried about applying for a job in the United States. What if they didn’t think my English was good enough?

5. June: I don’t mind if my teacher has a different accent than I’m used to, as long as I can understand what he or she is saying.

6. I think it’s useful to have some knowledge of different dialects of English. That knowledge will come in handy when I travel.

7. The large number of slang words in English is amazing. There is a lot to pick up!

8. I think companies should hire non-native speakers of English if they are qualified to do the job.

Listening Task

1. A: Hey, Andrew! You’re back from Australia.

B: Yeah, just got back yesterday.

A: Well, g’day, mate! How did you like my homeland?

B: Oh, man, it was great! The people were so friendly. The weather was great. And some of the Australian slang you taught me really came in handy.

A: Oh, yeah. I bet you picked up some more while you were there.

B: Yep. Mm, lemme see. I know “mozzies” are“mosquitoes,” and “tucker” means “food.” And, of course, Australian English is called “Strine.”

A: Not bad, mate! A few more trips down under and you’ll be an expert in Strine!

2. A: So, ho w did you like Professor Lee’s class?

B: Man, I don’t know.

A: What do you mean?

B: I mean, it’s hard to pick up what she’s saying. Her English is so hard to understand.

A: You think so?

B: Yeah. She has a strong accent, you know.

A: Well, yeah, but everyone has an accent. Even you have an accent! Hers is just different from yours, that’s all.

B: Sure is.

A: Don’t worry about it, though. You’ll get used to how she talks.

B: Maybe, but I’m having a really hard time understanding her right now.

A: Well, maybe you should just pay attention to what she writes on the board. She writes on the board a lot. I think she knows that some people need to get used to her.

3. A: OK. Places everyone! “Gone with the Wind,” scene25, take 2. And action!

B: Rhett, I only know that I love …

A: Cut! Cut! Cut! Julia, you’ve got to work on your southern accent. You just don’t sound like Scarlet.

B: I know, I know. I’m just not getting it for some reason.

A: OK. It’s not that hard. Now, listen. In the southern dialect of American En glish, the pronoun “I” sounds like “Ah.” I love you, Rhett.

B: OK. Lemme try this again. Aaaah. I only know that I love you.

A: Better. Now another thing. “R” sounds at the end of words are often dropped. So, for example, you say “suga’,” not “sugar.”

B: O K. Don’t botha me anymo’. And don’t call me suga’!

A: Much better! All right, places everyone! We’re going to try this again. Lights, camera, action!

Real World Listening

Part 1. Sumi interviews for the job.

Jennifer: Tell me how your background and experience have prepared you to be a manager in our travel company.

Sumi: Well, as my resume shows, I have a bachelor’s degree in travel industry management from an American university, and I worked for five years in one of the top travel companies in Japan. After two years I was promoted to a management position that was very similar to the job you are offering here. Jennifer: I see. So you have supervised people in your previous position? Sumi: Yes. Actually, I supervised a staff of about twenty people.

Part 2. Sumi gets an offer.

Sumi: Hello?

Jennifer:I’m calling for Sumi Wilson.

Sumi: This is Sumi.

Jennifer:Hi! This is Jennifer Bates of World Trek travel agency. I’m calling with what I hope will be good news.

Sumi: Yes?

Jennifer:We’d like to offer you a po sition as a customer service representative.

Sumi:Sorry, but did you just say customer service? I was applying for the management position.

Jennifer: Yes, I know. Actually, we’ve hired someone else for the management position, but we really liked you, so we’d like to hire you in customer service.

Sumi: I see. Well, since I was hoping to get the management position, I think I’ll need to think about this. Could I call you back tomorrow?

Part 3. Sumi talks to her husband.

Rick: Hello?

Sumi:It’s me. World Tre k called.

Rick: So, did you get the job?

Sumi:No, but they offered me a job as a customer service representative, selling and leading tours to various places in Asia.

Rick:That’s not fair! You were perfect for the management job!

Sumi:That’s what I thou ght, too. But I honestly think they were worried about my English. I’m sure they want a native speaker to be the manager.

Rick:But that’s ridiculous! Your English is great. You know, if that’s their attitude, I’m glad you’re not going to be working there.

Sumi:Actually, I’ve been thinking about it a lot, and I really want to accept the job as a customer service rep.

Rick: What? Why?

Sumi: Well, it’s a good chance to show them how much I know, what I can do. And they can see for themselves how good my English is, too! Then, whenever the next management position comes up, they’ll know I’m the

perfect choice!

Rick: Well, in that case, go for it! And let’s go out for dinner tonight to celebrate!

LECTURE AUDIOSCRIPTS UNIT 1 What’s in a Name? TEACHER: Good morning, everybody. Good morning, Felipe, Monica, Theo, and I can't remember your name. STUDENT 1: Patricia. 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. And then we'll talk about family names, and look at the different categories of family names. Although the scope of the lecture today is English-language names, we can use the same approach, you know, to look at names from any culture. Let's take a brief look at first, or given names. 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. The third way is to provide a "push" for the child. Parents want to choose a name that sounds very "successful." A strong name might help them in the business world, for example. Or they might choose a name that works for either gender, like Taylor or Terry. So, given these three methods, what is the

Unit1 蛙的故事 最近发生了几桩怪事儿。 我在北威斯康星州的树林中有一座小木屋。是我亲手搭建的，前面还有一间花房。住在里面相当惬意。实际上我是在户外做音频制作和环境方面的工作--作为干这一行的工具，我还装备了一间带电脑的工作室。 还有一只树蛙也在我的工作室中住了下来。 去年十一月，我第一次惊讶地发现他（只是这样称呼罢了，事实上我并不知道该称“他”还是“她”）坐在电脑的音箱上。我把他放到花房里去，认为他呆在那儿会更舒服一些。可他又跑回来呆在原地。很快我就习惯了有他做伴，清晨我上网查收邮件和阅读新闻的时候，他也在一旁关注这个世界。 可上周，我突然对这个爬上爬下的“小绿人或小灰人”产生了好奇心。 于是有一天，我正在工作室里干活，电脑嗡嗡作响。当树蛙从我面前爬过时，我不得不停止工作。他停下了并转过身来，坐在那儿看着我。好吧，我也干脆停下来望着他。五个月了，他一直这样陪着我。我突然有一股强烈的欲望想了解他：为什么他要呆在这儿而不乐意呆在花房里？我认为对树蛙来说，花房显然要舒适得多。 “你为什么呆在这儿？”我情不自禁地问他。 我目不转睛地盯着他，他也直视着我。然后我听到一种叮咚声。这种声音似乎一下子就进入了我的大脑中枢，因为它和电脑里发出来的声音十分接近。在那个声音里我听到树蛙对我“说”：“因为我想让你明白”。唷，太不可思议了。“明白什么？”我脑海中突然跳出了这个问题。然后经过短暂的体验这种交流之后，我觉得我已经理解了树蛙待在这儿的原因。我开始理解树蛙只是想听到其他同类的叫声并并与之交流。或许他误以为计算机发出的声音就是其他树蛙在呼唤他。 真是有趣。 我继续工作。我正在写一个关于全球气候变化的故事。有个朋友刚好发过来一份传真，说地球的温度正以每十年1.9度的速度上升。我知道，照这种速度下去，每年春天我都爱去提取树浆的这片枫林，到我孩子的那一代就将不复存在。我的故乡美丽的威斯康星州也会在下一代变成一片草原。 此刻，树蛙从我脚背跳过去站在电脑前的地板上。然后他伸出手来从后面拢起左耳凝神倾听，接着他又站在电脑前伸出右手拢起另一支耳朵。他这样转动着脑袋，聆听那个声音，非常专心致志。他的皮肤起了微妙的变化，呈现出一种亮丽的绿色，然后他就用尽全力跳到电脑上。 我猛然想起去年在收音机里听到的一则关于青蛙的消息，说是全世界的青蛙正在死亡。消息说因为青蛙的皮肤就像是一个内里朝外的肺，所以正在受到污染和全球气候变化的影响。据说已经发现有些青蛙的皮肤已变得像纸一样干瘪。还说青蛙是一个"物种指示器"，由于对环境敏感，这个物种会先遭灭顶之灾。 这时我明白了。 青蛙向我们传递了一个信息。一些头脑清醒的人士也曾向我们传递过同样的信息，那就是"我们别无选择。"我们已经进入了关键时刻，为了人类的子孙后代，也为青蛙，我们必须对这个星球负起主人的责任。 因为我们休戚相关。

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,
