When Uncle John was 85 years old, most of his families and relatives were already dead. He lived by himself in a big house. The only person who often talked to him was his nephew Tom. Tom called several times a week just for few minutes to say hello and see if everything was OK.
One morning Tom phoned Uncle John again. Again no answer. Two hours later he called the 3rd time. Still no answer, he got very anxious. So he called Uncle John’s next door neighbor. Tom told her that he was worried about Uncle John and asked her to see what was wrong. A while later, the neighbor phoned Tom. She said nervously, “Tom, I’m sorry it took so long. Uncle John didn’t answer the door, so I used his spare key. I found him lying on the b athroom floor. I could not wake him up.” Tom called the doctor immediately, and then rushed to Uncle John’s house. When he got there, the doctor had already been there.

W: Dr. Brown, welcome to today’s program.
M: Thank you. It’s a pleasure being here.
W: We know that you are a language specialist, and you just published a book on how to learn a foreign language. And it’s selling well, so tell us the title of your book?
M: It’s called “Learning a language over Ex and Tost” (音)
W: That sounds very interesting, tell us what you discuss in your book.
M: It is very important to set up a regular program like planning a few minutes every morning around the breakfast time.
W: But I have been learning Spanish for four years, and I haven’t become a good speaker of it. M: We can’t become fluent speakers in the matter of a few minute hearing that. We should follow a regular course of study.
三问
1. 学生问：Could you please speak a little more?
电脑答：My basic suggestion is to learn a foreign language by talking small steps. Some people think they can learn a foreign language in thirty days, and they become very discouraged when they can’t. Learning 5 words a day and learning to use them actively is far better than Learning 30 and forgetting them the next day. But people many have different learning styles. 2. 学生问：What do you mean by “learning styles?”
电脑答：I mean different ways of learning. Some prefer to see models of the patterns they are expected to learn; others see the hearing instructions over reading them. All preferences are determined by factors so just character, culture and past experiences.
3. 学生问：How did you learn a foreign language?
电脑答：I learned while doing things. Moving around as well as trying to learn helps me. I often recite aloud the words when I cook potatoes and onions for breakfast in the morning.

Last summer vacation, Tom took a part-time job in a company. His office was very small at the end of the second floor. One Friday evening, he finished his work and went out of his office. It’s already six o’clock. He looked around and found everybody had gone home. The building was very quiet, and the main lights were all out. He ran down to see whether he could find somebody, but it was too late. The doors all locked, and he was locked in the building. Tom went back to his office to phone the doorkeeper, but the phone did not work. He tried another one, and that phone did not work, either. Tom realized the phones in the office had been locked for the weekend. He thought, “I had to be here for the weekend”. Suddenly he remembered that in the reception room there was a phone that was always on. So he rushed to the reception room. The door was locked, too. So he went into the room through the window, and phoned the doorkeeper. Half an hour later, the doorkeeper came, and Tome went home.

Two Problems
During his first year at university, one day, Tom arr ived late at one of Professor Brown’s courses. On the blackboard were two math problems. He thought they were their homework and copied them down. A few days later, Tom went to Professor Brown’s office and apologized to him for taking so long to finish the homework. The problems seemed to be a little harder to do than usual. He asked Professor Brown if he still wanted his homework. He told Tom to throw it on the desk covered with a lot of papers. Tom feared that his homework would be there forever.
One Sunday morning, about six weeks later, Tom had a heavy knock at the front door. It was Professor Brown. He rushed in with Tom’s homework in his hand. He said to Tom excitedly, “I’ve just written an introduction for one of your papers. Read it so that we can ge t it published.” For a minute, Tom had no idea what he was talking about. Tom was later told that the two problems he copied down as his homework were two famous math problems that had never been worked out.

Natural medicines, made from flowers, seeds, roots and leaves. The Chinese were the first to discover the power of plants, making medicine for 4000 years. Focus on prevention rather than cure. Popular today in the east and the west. Healthy for mind, body and soul. Past and present, tribal people always made the most of nature. Explorers and botanists made them available to the rest of the world. Western and traditional medicine unite, returning to more natural cures. Copy their chemicals or use them direct. When they fail, we go back to nature for the next magic cure.

When Tom was six years old, he suffered from a rare disease and was put in a hospital. Bored of watching TV there, he went on the Internet. He soon found a website that taught people how to cook. He found it extremely interesting, and found it kept his mind off everything. He fell in love with cooking. After he recovered, Tom tried his best to learn to cook at home. Most of his spare time was spent learning to cook. He’d try a recipe over and over until he got it right. Now, five years later, Tom is a famous cook and has his own cook book. He uses his skills to raise money for children suffering from the same disease he had. He’s raised over 100000 dollars so far. He says, “Children can do much more than watch TV – they can also learn to cook by themselves.”

Tom woke up early because he wanted to try out for the school basketball team. He was looking forward to it, but was too nervous to eat breakfast. His mother told him to eat something anyway, because it would give him the energy he needed. Tom felt a bit sick, but ate some in the end. Before he went, his mother kissed him and wished him good luck.
After Tom got to the basketball court, the coach asked the boys to run, catch, and throw balls. Tom lost the ball a few times, but he still thought he did quite well. Afterwards, Tom was tired and began to walk away. But then a coach called his name. He asked Tom if he would like to join the school basketball team. Even though he was tired, Tom was extremely happy and excited. “That would be really great!” he shouted.

Why are we here? Where do we come from? These are the most enduring of questions and it's an essential part of human nature to want to find the answers. But, in reality, our story extends far further back in time. Our story starts with the beginning of the universe. It began 13.7 billion years ago. And today, it’s filled with over 100 billion galaxies, each containing hundreds of billions of stars. In this series, I want to tell that story. We are part of the universe, so its story is our story. This film is about the stuff that makes us and where it all came from.

The history of gold is the history of the world. Since earliest times gold has been adored and treasured by man. A symbol of enduring value, gold has been used as a currency for centuries. In 1847 one man found gold in the bed of a Californian river. And so began the Californian Gold Rush. Men came in their thousands and the city that we now know as San Francisco was born. Today most of the world’s gold is found, not in rivers, but deep within the earth. Gold, now even more precious to man than ever.

One day when the train Tom was taking slowed down at an under-developed place because of a sharp bend, he found an ordinary house alone standing beside it. He became interested in it, so he got off the train at the near station and managed to find the owner of the house. The owner of the house complained to Tom that he couldn’t bear the noise of the train and decided to sell it, but it’s difficult for him to find a buyer. Tom bought it at a low price, then he succeeded in persuading a big company to rent his house for advertising. The rent for three years was ten times the price of the house!

W: Dr Brown, welcome to our program.
M: Thank you.
W: We know you are giving a new course this year. What is it about?
M:I’m just giving a three-month course on the classroom of the future and the use of new technologies in the classroom.
W: How will a classroom develop in the future?
M:The future classroom will heavily depend upon new technology. But it’s still related to our traditional education. My course introduces what education experts think about the future classroom.
W:What’s their ide a about the future classroom?
M:Uh… Actually, it’s quite a shocking idea for most people, myself included. Generally speaking, the idea is about three parts: the role of the Internet, examination, and learning goals.
W:在将来的教室里互联网有什么用？
M:The Internet is the place for students to get information from. It is so easy to get information because you can find what you need within seconds.
W:将来学生如何参加考试？
M:Students can take exams on the Internet. And exams will be automatically marked by the computer, not by their teachers. What’s more, students will be tested on how to use information rather than knowing information. However, I actually don’t know whether that’s good or bad and whether it’s going to happen.
W:将来学生需要学习什么？
M: Students need to be creative b ecause that’s the key to success in the future. The purpose of learning is not about knowing knowledge, but putting knowledge into practice.

W: Hi Tom, you look worried.
M:I’m having trouble with my work.
W:What’s the trouble?
M: Uh, I am in charge of a team, working with five other people on a project, but we are not very productive.
W: Is the project too hard for everyone to work on?
M: No, but no one is working together on it. What do you think the problem is?
W: I guess your group is not good at teamwork.
M:But I don’t know what to do about it. Everyone is just doing his/ her own separate work on it. W:That’s too bad. If your group does not come together, then they will not know what is done and what needs to be done.
M:我怎样才能使他们共同工作呢？
W:You should call everyone together for a meeting, and you should make them know that working as a team is important.
M:你认为什么时侯召集开会最好呢？
W:As soon as possible. You should play the role of a “monitor” in the meeting, getting to know what they have done so far and finding out what still needs to be done. In this way you will be sure that the project is done correctly.
M:作为领导，我应该怎样对待团队成员呢？
W:You can’t just tell them what to do or how to do things. A good leader listens to his teammates as well as directs them. By listening to your teammates, you get to know how much they have achieved and you know...

On the one hand, parents go mad over 3 rooms, clothes thrown on the floor and their children’ s refusal to help with the 4 . On the other hand, teenagers lose their patience continually when parents blame them for 5 the towel in the bathroom, not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket. The research, conducted by St. George University, shows that different parents have different 6 to these problems. However, some approaches are more 7 than others. For example, those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness, but 8 clean the room for them, have fewer chances of changing their children’ s 9 . On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the 10 of their actions can do better. For example, when teenagers who don’t help their parents with the shopping don’t find their favorite drink in the refrigerator, they are forced to 11 their actions. Psychologists say that 12 is the most important thing in parent-child relationships. Parents should 13 to their children but at the same time they should lend an ear to what they have to say. Parents may 14 their children when they are untidy but they should also understand that their room is their own private space. Communication is a two-way process. It is only by listening to and 15 each other that problems between parents and children can be settled.

B Many of us love July because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colorful and sweet jewels from British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection. Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into Vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries(樱桃), they are so delicious who care? However, they are rich in Vitamin C. When combined with berries or slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruits shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.
