Dictation (P70)Man has a big brain. He can think, learn and speak. Scientists used to think that humans were different from animals because they can think and learn. They know now that animals can learn dogs, rats, birds and even worms can learn. Scientists are now beginning to understand that humans are different from animals because they can speak. Animals cannot speak. They make noises when they are afraid, or angry, or unhappy. Apes are our nearest cousins. They can understand some things more quickly than human beings, and one or two have learned a few words, but they are still different from us. They cannot join words or make sentences. They cannot think like us because they have no language, as we mean it. They can never think about the past or the future. Language is a wonderful thing. Man has been able to develop civilization largely because he has language. Every child can speak his own language very well when he is four or five but no animal learns to speak. How do children learn? Scientists do not really know. What happens when we speak? Scientists do not know. They only know that man can speak because he has a big brain. Listening ComprehensionA.

(P73)如今，手机不再是有钱人才能买得起的奢侈品，它已成为我们生活中的必需品，是必备的几样东西之一。无论是工作还是娱乐方面，手机都改变了我们交流的方式。我们现在也很少受时间和地理位置的限制，一名经理遇上堵车也可以用手机拨打电话会议。 Nowadays mobile phones are no longer treated as luxuries that only the rich can afford. Rather, they have turned out to be a necessity in our lives, placed in the list of must-have items. Mobile phones have changed the way we communicate, whether for work or play. We are now less constrained by time and geographical location. With his mobile device, a manager can dial into conference calls while stuck in a traffic jam.但是，这个“设备”让我们的个人生活和工作时间混淆不清，产生了很多问题。在全球许多城市和地方，随处可见低着头紧盯手机屏幕忙着按键的人。人们乘火车、坐出租车或排队时，只要有空就忙着摆弄手机。有的人出去约会也用手机通知对方到达的时间。But the blurring of personal and work lives brought about by the device are posing many problems. The common sight of heads bent, eyes staring intently at mobile screens and fingers busy tapping away repeats itself across many cities and places around the world. Whenever there is a moment to spare while on the train, taxi or waiting in a queue, people busy themselves with their mobile devices. Some people check in with their phones while out on a date.这种痴迷于移动设备的心态正在妨碍我们享受生活中的小事。事实上，技术应该是促进我们生活方式的工具，而不是我们人类生来享受的那些美好事物的替代品。手机当然对我们的生活产生了重要影响，但这种影响应该向好的方向发展。Such obsession with mobile devices is disrupting how we appreciate the little things in life. The truth is that technology should be seen as a tool to enhance our way of living and not a substitute for the good things that we as humans naturally enjoy. Mobile phones have certainly made a significant impact on our lives, but it should be for the better.Blank Filling (P74)A.
