听力原文： Marriage is still a popular institution in the United States, but divorce is becoming almost as "popular". Nevertheless, most American people get married at the present time. Fifty percent of American marriages end in divorce. However, four out of five divorced people do not stay single. They get married a see6nd time to new partners. Sociologists tell us that in the next century, most American people will marry three or four times in one lifetime. Alvin Toffler, an American sociologist, calls this new social form. "serial marriages". In his new book Fortune Shock, Toffler gives many reasons for this change in American marriage. In modern society, people's lives don't stay the same for very long. Americans frequently change their jobs, their homes, and their circle of friends. So, the person who was a good husband or wife ten years ago is sometimes not as good ten years later. After some years of marriage, a husband and wife can feel that their lives have become very different, and they don't share the same interests any more. For this reason, Toffler says, people in the twenty- first century will not plan to marry only one person for an entire lifetime. They will plan to stay married to one person for perhaps five or ten years, and then marry another. Most Americans will expect to have a "marriage career" that includes three or four marriages.

听力原文：M: So how come you chose psychology？
W: Well, at lust I didn't have any clear idea of what I wanted to do after university, I didn't say to myself "I want to be a clinical psychologist or a researcher or anything like that". I suppose I have just always been interested in people and the way they act.
M: And what was the course like？
W: It was just great. The teachers were all really friendly and they had this special approach to teaching. The whole course was based on a problem-solving approach.
M: I see from your CV that you graduated in 1997 and after that, let me see...
W: I got a job with the department of employment. It was only a temporary thing for about six months. I used to have to design questionnaires and things like that for surveys that they carried out. And I guess the psychology course at college helped me a lot.
M: So why did you leave？
W: Well, four years is a long time to be asking people questions. You know those sorts of questions about washing powder and shampoo. After two years of doing that I felt that while I could do it well, now I want to do something else that's a little different. It just wasn't challenging for me any more and because I needed a challenge I decided to move when I heard about the position of Senior Researcher here at institute I knew that's exactly what I want.

听力原文：W: This food is terrible. I can't even finish my dinner.
M: I know. You'd think with all the money we paid for the room and board, the university could hire a better food service. Where are you headed next？
W: I'm going over to the students' recreation center to play bridge.
M: You're spending your time on a card game？
W: Not just any card game. It's one of the most strategic there is.
M: So I've heard. Don't you play with a partner？
W: Yeah. Four people play, two against the other two.
M: So you try to play in cooperation with your partner.
W: Actually the cards of one of the four players are turned face up. That player's called the "dummy".
M: I wouldn't like to be called that. When you're the dummy, what do youdo while the cards are being played？
W: Anything you want--sit there and study, shuffle another deck, get snacks for everyone. I like to stand behind my partner and watch.
M: You know I've heard that bridge is habit-forming. You should be careful not to play so much that you don't get your studying done.
W: Don't worry about me. I only play on Thursdays after dinner and sometimes we need a fourth player. If you like, I could teach you.
M: Thanks, but I have pretty heavy workload this semester. I've already spent my evenings doing things I don't really know how to do yet.

听力原文： Welcome to the Four Winds Historical Farm, where traditions of the past are preserved for visitors like you. Today giving this barn behind me a sturdy thatched roof able to , withstand heavy winds and last up to a hundred years．How do they do it？ Well，in a nutshell，thatching involves covering the beams'or rafters—the wooden skeleton of a roof—with reeds or straw．Our thatchers here have harvested their own natural materials for the job—the bundles of water reeds you see lying over there beside the barn．
Thatching is certainly uncommon in the United States today．I guess that's why so many of you have come to see this demonstration．But it wasn't always that way．In the seventeenth century, the colonists here thatched their roofs with reeds and straw, just as they had done in England. After a while, though, they began to replace the thatch with wooden shingles because wood was so plentiful. And eventually, other roofing materials like stones, slates, and clay tiles came into use.
It's a real shame that most people today don't realize how strong and long-lasting a thatched roof is. In Ireland, where thatching is still practiced, the roofs can survive winds of up to one hundred ten miles per hour. That's because straw and reeds are so flexible. They bend but don't break in the wind like other materials can. Another advantage is that the roofs keep the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter. And then, of course, there's the roofs' longevity--the average is sixty years, but they can last up to a hundred. With all these reasons to start thatching roofs again, wouldn't it be wonderful to see this disappearing craft return to popularity？

A．Putting a roof on a barn.
B．Harvesting water reeds.

D．Daily farm operations.
