Listening InTask 1: Encore!As soon as the singer completed the song, the audience cried, “Encore! Encore!” The singer was delighted and sang the song again. She couldnt believe it when the audience shouted for her to sing it again. The cycle of shouts and songs was repeated ten more times. The singer was overjoyed with the response from the audience. She thanked them and asked them why they were so interested in hearing the same song again and again. One of the people in the audience replied, “We wanted you to improve; now it is much better.”1.F 2.T 3.F 4.T 5.FTask 2: What are your favorite songs?W: Hi, Bob!

It can make us sad or happy, relaxed or full of energy.Slow music calms people. Ballads and some forms of classical music often create a peaceful atmosphere that is good for relaxing after a busy day. If the music is slowed below 50 beats per minutes, it can create an atmosphere of sadness. This kind of slow music can be found in many types of music, such as jazz and blues. Many people listen to slow music. It suits their mood when they are alone at night.Faster music, such as rock, heavy metal and dance music, tends to give us energy and makes us feel full of life. This type of music is often played at sporting events to stir up the fans and the teams.Rock, pop music and rap are played at parties. They can provide energy to the gathering. Since most rock, pop and rap songs are easy to listen to, they are suitable for parties. Rock music is sometimes used to accompany physical labor. Its heavy fast tempo speeds up the heart, and one almost works in time to the music, making the work more enjoyable.Some people think that rock music can cause road accidents. Drivers could become excited by the speed of the music and drive too fast. But there are so many things to distract a drivers attention that it does not make sense to blame rock music.1. classical 2. peaceful 3. relaxing 4. Jazz 5. sadness 6. heavy metal 7. energy 8. sporting events 9. physical labor 10. road accidentsV. Lets TalkThe Origin of the Song “Happy Birthday to You”The story of the song “Happy Birthday to You” Began as a sweet one, but later became bitter. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at a kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the principal of the same school, wrote a song for the children, entitled “Good Morning to All”. When Mildred combined her musical talents with her sisters knowledge in the area of kindergarten education, Good Morning to All” was sure to be a success. The sister published the song in a collection entitled “Song Stories of the Kindergarten” in 1893. Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia Universitys Teachers College, a gentleman by the name Robert Coleman published the song, without the sisters permission. He added a second part, which is the familiar “Happy Birthday to You”. Mr. Colemans addition of the second part made the song popular and, finally, the sisters” original first part disappeared. “Happy Birthday to You” had altogether replaced the sisters original song “Good Morning to All”. In 1916 Patty took legal action against Mr. Coleman. In court, she succeeded in proving that they were the real owners of the song.1. Good Morning to All 2. Success 3. musical talents 4.

He was born in Salzburg, Austria, in 1756. Before the age of four, he had shown great musical talent. His father then decided to let him start taking music lessons. The boys reputation as a musical prodigy grew fast. At five, he was composing music. Form that time on, Mozart was performing in concerts and writing music. By his early teens, he had mastered the piano and the violin, and was writing symphonies and operas. His first major opera was performed in Milan in 1770 when he was only fourteen. At fifteen, Mozart became the conductor for an orchestra in Salzburg. In 1781, he left for Vienna, where he was in great demand as both a performer and a composition teacher, and his first opera was a success. But life was not easy because he was a poor businessman, and his finances were always in a bad state. His music from the next decade was not very popular, and he eventually fell back on his teaching jobs for a living. In 1788 he stopped performing in public, preferring only to compose. He died in 1791 at the age of thirty-five. Although he lived only a short life, he composed over 600 works.1. Which of the following is true of the four-year-old Mozart? B2.

W: From what I can remember, the director asked us to rehearse this a hundred times.M: One hundred times? Is the director out of his mind?Q: What does the man imply?2. M: What did you think about the movie you saw last night? W: I should have stayed at home. It was a complete waste of money. Q: What does the woman imply?3. W: She said she might become a famous movie star. M: Yes, and pigs might fly. Q: What does the man mean?4. M: So if you give me 20 dollars for three tickets, I can give you eight dollars change.

Q: What does the man mean?1. A 2.D 3.B 4.C 5.BIII. Listening InTask 1: Finally, weve found something in common.Amy: What did you think of the movie, Peter? Did you like it?Peter: Not really, Amy. It seemed that the director was just trying hard to impress us with strange close-ups and special sound effects, but he forgot to include a good story.Amy: The movie made you think. It was different from the superficial dialogs you usually see in films these days.Peter: But the movie seemed to be too dark and sad. Why does a movie have to be sad to be deep?Amy: But it is better than some violent movies with nothing but gunfights and exploding cars. I prefer thought-provoking movies.Peter: Sometimes you dont want to think. You just want light-hearted movies. By the way, did you see the new mystery movie shown at the local cinema yesterday?Amy: Oh, it was so suspenseful. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.Peter: I loved it too. The plot was great, and the acting was unbelievable.Amy: Now weve found something in common. I guess we can watch mysteries together in the future.1. director 2. sound effects 3. good story 4. think 5. sad 6. violent7. light-hearted movies 8. mystery movie 9. in the futureTask 2: An actor forgetting his lineThere was once an actor who could no longer remember his lines. After several years of searching, he finally found a theater that was willing to give him a try. The director said, “This is the most important part, and it has only one line. At the opening you walk onto stage carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, smell it deeply and then say this line in praise of the rose: Ah, the sweet smell of my love.” The actor was excited. All day long before the play he practiced his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, looked at the audience, and with great emotion said the line, “Ah, the sweet smell of my love.” The audience exploded in laughter. Only the director was furious! “You damned fool!” he cried. “Youve ruined my play! Youve ruined me!” The actor was puzzled, “What happened? Did I forget my line?” “No!” shouted the director. “You forget the rose!”1.D 2.C 3.D 4.A 5.BTask 3: The Academy AwardsThe Academy Awards, popularly known as the Oscars, are presented every year by the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to recognize excellent professionals in the film industry, including directors, actors and writers.The formal ceremony at which the awards are presented is one of the most important award ceremonies in the world. It is televised live in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and gathers large numbers of viewers elsewhere throughout the world. This years ceremony was watched by more than 40 million Americans. It is said that only the Super Bowl, the Olympic Ceremonies, and the Football World Cup Final draw more viewers in the United States.However, the Academy Awards are not without criticism. It has been observed that several of the Academy Award winners have not stood the test of time. Critics claim that many films with artistic value, cultural influence and innovative qualities have not received enough attention. Since the 1980s, money-making blockbusters have often been Best Pictures winners, but they are not necesssarily great films with depth. The Academy Awards have also been criticized for favoring certain types of films and neglecting other types. The Best Picture prize has rarely been given to an animated film or a science fiction film, with Avatar as an exception.1. film 2. directors 3. actors 4. important 5. the United Kingdom 6. viewers7. 40 million 8.

His movies frequently show innocent people caught up in situations beyond their control or even understanding.Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense to surprise in his movies. In surprise, the director provides the viewers with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the movie do not know, and then skillfully builds up tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth. Hitchcock had a great sense of humor. Once at a French airport, a suspicious customs official looked at Hitchcocks passport, which was marked simply PRODUCER. The curious official asked, “And what do you produce?” “Gooseflesh.” replied Hitchcock.Alfred Hitchcock always managed to make a brief appearance in his movies: He was sometimes getting on a bus, or crossing a street, or walking in front of a store, or across the courtyard in an apartment. However, for the movie Lifeboat in 1944, he was faced with a difficult problem. The entire movie was set in a lifeboat out at sea, and there were only a few characters in the boat. Originally, he wanted to float by as a dead body, but he was afraid hed sink! His clever solution was to place a photograph of himself in a newspaper that one of the characters reads during the course of the movie.1. A 2.B 3.C 4. D 5. DVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingListeningTask 1: Only One LinePeter has always wanted to be an actor, but never succeeded because he had a hard time memorizing lines. A friend of his told him about a small part in a play. He promised Peter that he could do it because hed only have to remember one line. Peter decided to take the part. His only line was, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Peter practiced and practiced, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” On the opening night of the play Peter was very nervous. Backstage, he practiced his line, over and over again, “Listen, I hear the guns roar! Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Finally came his turn, Peter went onto stage. He heard a loud BOOM and cried out in spite of himself, “WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?”1.memorizing lines 2.remember one line 3.I hear the guns roar 4.a loud boom5.forgot his lineTask 2: Movie ReviewsI love movies! And after I see them, I like to comment on them. These are movies I saw this year I would like to recommend: Among comedies I highly recommend “Monsoon Wedding”. Its an Indian movie. The story is about an Indian wedding. Preparations for the wedding bring out funny and sad situations touching on love and a past rape. This movie shows some of the wonderful customs of India, and the importance of family and love. Its great!Among dramas, I like “Adaptation”. It is an excellent movie! But for me the first part of the movie was too fast to follow. I hope to see it again on DVD with captions.“The Pianist” is set in the Second World War. Its about a young Polish-Jewish pianist, who lives in Warsaw with his family. The Nazis sent his family to die in the concentration camps. He is safe, but would have died without unusually good luck and the kindness of a few non-Jews. This is a powerful movie with thought-provoking themes.“Rabbit-Proof Fence” is set in the 1930s in Australia, and its based on real events. It is about three native girls who are separated from their families by the racist police. After this happens, the police send them to special centers. There the girls are taught practical skills, and the government tries to integrate them into white Australian society. They run away from the camp and walk 1,500 miles to find their mothers. This is a sad, touching story that you should not miss.1.What does the speaker imply by saying he wants
