M: Well, when learning a foreign language, I would surround myself in the language, the target language, that I wanted to learn.
W: Surround oneself in the language？ I think it is difficult to do that. Can you explain how you do it？
M: Uh, for example, I would watch a movie in that language, uh, which would help me keep motivated to learn vocabulary and phrases.
W: That sounds interesting.
M: Yeah, you'll have a lot of fun by doing so.
W: I see. A little hit of practice every day is very important to language learning.
M: Yes. Regular practice is also better than practicing a lot in one day. Learning a language well needs patience and perseverance.
W: Then what else did you do to learn a foreign language？
M: Well, I would keep a situational notebook.
W: What is that used for？
M: Ur, for example, in a restaurant, you use a certain phrase over and over again, and so if you can remember just one particular phrase in each setting, then you can immediately speak that language and have more confidence and you get more out of learning the language, I think.
W: Really？ I'll try that. Thank you for your advice.
M: You're welcome.

M: Then how much money do you think people need to save for themselves？
W: Welt，the thing is，you should have 3-6 months of monthly salary saved，so whatever your monthly salary is，you should have enough to pay your expenses for 3-6 months without any income.
M: And then in addition to that，most of us need to plan for college，retirement，taking care of parents，etc.
W: Uh-huh. And the kinds of things that rise up unexpectedly，for example，like the water heater blowing up or the car not starting in the morning.
M: So，what's the biggest mistake people make？
W: Well，they tend to live from paycheck to paycheck. And when something unexpected occurs，if they don't have someone to help，they just go deeper and deeper into debt，then fall farther and farther behind their payments.
M: So，if you could give people one piece of advice to make their financial future more secure，what would you suggest？
W: The best advice I can give is that“Pay yourself first”. When you get your paycheck，save some portion of it，even $i0 a week. That's giving up a movie or one stop at a fast food restaurant.

听力原文： In science the meaning of the word "explain" suffers with civilization's every step in search of reality. Science cannot really explain electricity, magnetism, and gravitation; their effects can be measured and predicted, but of their nature is no more known to the modem scientists than to Thales who first looked into the nature of the electrification of amber, a hard yellowish-brown gum. Most contemporary physicists reject the notion that man can ever discover what these mysterious forces "really" are. Electricity, Bertrand Russell says, "is not a thing, like St. Paul's Cathedral; it is a way in which things behave. When we have told how things behave when they are electrified, and under what circumstances they are electrified, we have told all there is to tell." Until recently scientists would have disapproved of such an idea. Aristotle, for example, whose natural science dominated western thought for two thousand years, believe that man could arrive at an understanding of reality by reasoning from self-evident principles. He felt, for example, that it is a self-evident principle that everything in the universe has its proper place, hence one can deduce that objects fall to the ground because that's where they belong, and smoke goes up because that's where it belongs. The goal of Aristotelian science was to explain why things happen. Modem science was born when Galileo began trying to explain how things happen and thus originated the method of controlled experiment that now forms the basis of scientific investigation.

听力原文： Almost all states in America have a state fair. They last for one, two or three weeks. The Indiana state fair is one of the largest and oldest state fairs in the United States. It is held every summer. It started in 1852. Its goals were to educate, share ideas, and present Indiana's best products. The cost of a single ticket to enter the fair was 20 cents.
During the early 1930's, officials of the fair ruled that the people could attend by paying with something other than money. For example, farmers brought a bag of grain in exchange for a ticket. With the passage of time, the fair has grown and changed a lot, but it is still one of Indiana's most celebrated events. People from all over Indiana and from many other states attend the fair. They can do many things at the fair.
They can watch the judging of the price cows, pigs, and other animals, they can see sheep getting their wool cut, and they can learn how that wool is made into clothing; they can watch cows giving birth. In fact, people can learn about the animals they would never see except at the fair. The fair provides a chance for the farming communities to show its skills and farm products. For example, visitors might see the world's largest apple, or the tallest sunflower plant.
Today, children and adults at the fair can play new computer games, or attend more traditional games of skill. They can watch performances put on by famous entertainers. Experts say such fairs are important, because people need to remember that they're connected to the earth and its products, and they depend on animals for many things.

听力原文： One of the greatest mysteries of nature is the instinct to migrate. Every year, millions of creatures feel the need to migrate and most people have seen the arrival or departure of migrating flocks of birds. In England, for example, we always know when Autumn is coming, because flocks of swallows sit on the telegraph wires. Migration is not only seen in birds but also in reptiles, for example, turtles, frogs and toads. Insects, such as locusts and butterflies; fish, such as eel, salmon and tunas and mammals, such as reindeer, seals, lemmings, whales and bats. Many of these creatures can find their way over long distances. And how they do it is a mystery and a wonder to everyone, especially for those of us who have difficulty even reading a map covering 100 miles. There are several suggestions about how they navigate. Firstly, it is suggested, they navigate by using stars and planets for guidance. Secondly, some people think that these migrating mammals find their way by following the pole of the earth's magnetic field. Thirdly some people think that migrating birds, insects and animals follow a certain smell or scent. Fourthly, another group of people believe that animals migrate by recognizing geographical features. Fifthly, some people think that animals migrate by following changes in temperature. And finally, there are people who suppose they migrate by following sound.

B．Telegraph wires stand still.

听力原文： Everywhere we look, we see Americans running. They run for every reason anybody could think of. They run for health, for beauty, to lose weight, to feel fit, and because it is the thing they love to do. Every year, for example, thousands of people run in one race, the Boston Marathon, the best known long distance race in the United States. In recent years there have been nearly 5,000 official competitors and it takes three whole minutes for the crowd of runners just to cross the starting line.
You may have heard the story of the Greek runner, Pheidippides. He ran from Marathon to Athens to deliver the news of the great victory 2,500 years ago. No one knows how long it took him to run the distance. But the story tells us that he died of the effort. Today in very few cases will one die in a Marathon race. But at the finish line, we see what this race is about; not being first, but finishing. The real victory is not over one's fellow runners, but over one's own body. It is a victory of will-power over fatigue. In the Boston Marathon, each person who crosses that finish line is a winner.

A．Three minutes.
B．Two Minutes.
C．One minutes.
D．Five minutes.

In an effort to make up for some of the glaring
limitations of IQ tests, researchers have begun to
develop new ways to measure the kinds of emotional factors
and psychological attitudes that lead to succeed in 【S1】______
everyday life. While IQ tests remain excellent predictors
of how good one will do in school, they have little
or nothing to do with who will earn the money or prestige
or have the most satisfied social life or relationships. 【S2】______
The new tests are intended to assess the less practical 【S3】______
intelligence that underlies these accomplishments. The
new approach goes beyond purely mental skills to
assess emotional factors and psychological attitudes that
can either interfere or facilitate the use of those skills. It 【S4】______
has fostered new theories of what they means to be smart. 【S5】______
The old theories focused in academic skills such as 【S6】______
verbal or mathematical quickness. But the new theories
describe a spectrum of practical talents such as the ability to
pick up the unspoken rules that govern success in a corporate
or professional career or the habits of mind that foster
productivity. "IQ and success in living have much to do 【S7】______
with each other", says Seymour Epstein, a psychologist at
the University of Massachusetts." Being intellectually gifted
does not predict you will earn the most money or achieve
the most recognition, even among college professors."
One factor emerging as crucial for life success is that 【S8】______
might be called emotional intelligence. "How well people
manage their emotions determines how effectively they
can use their intellectual ability," Dr. Epstein says. "For
example, if someone is skilled at solving problems in the
quiet of her office, but fall apart in a group, then she will 【S9】______
be effective in a great many situations." 【S10】______
