W：You have a twin birth named James, don’t you?

M: Yes, I do. He is at Harvard University and studies chemistry. He is very interested in it.

W: But I thought twins would have the same interests and abilities.

M: Not always. Genes give twins the potential for developing the same interests and abilities, but Dad and Mum encouraged us to develop our own interests and we did.

W: Did you and James dress alike and have the same teachers in elementary school?

M: No, my parents encouraged us to dress differently and we’re in different classes at school.

W: Didn’t you have many same ideas?

M: Sure, some of the time, but that’s also true of any brothers who grew up together in the same family.

 

三问

电脑答：Yes, but only for relaxation. He’s never been interested in study in music, and he didn’t learn to play any musical instruments when we’re younger. I did well in much courses, but I was very interested in music and spent most of any spare time learning to play the piano and violin.

2. 学生问：What was James interested in when he was young?

电脑答：He loved skating. He spent most of his time skating in his school on weekends. He’s still doing that now.

3. 学生问：Who had the biggest effect/ influence on you? /Who influenced you most?

 电脑答：Well, I think my father had big influence on developing differences in our interests. He encouraged us to learn different things and study different subjects. It was my father who suggested me doing the music at university.

Uncle John Was Saved

   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 bathroom 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. The doctor said that he was just in time to save him.

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.

1. 录音问：What is Dr. Brown’s book about?

2. 录音问：How long has the woman been learning Spanish?

3. 录音问：What is Dr. Brown’s basic suggestion on learning a foreign language?

学生答：To learn a foreign language by taking small steps.

4. 录音问：What factors determine one’s learning styles?

学生答：Factors like character, culture and past experiences.

5. 录音问：What does Dr. Brown often do when he prepares his breakfast?

学生答：He often recites aloud the words.

Locked In

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 arrived 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 get 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. For the first time, Tom realized that the two problems have something special in them.

W: Oh, about midnight on week days and later at the weekends.

M: Do you drink anything before you go to bed.

M: Oh, people of your age ought to sleep at least seven hours a night.

 

三问

1. 学生问：What should I do?

电脑答：First, try to go to bed a little earlier. Second, you should start to take some exercise, like going for a short run every day or going swimming.

2. 学生问：What else should I pay attention to?

电脑答：Yes, eating I suppose. It is not a good idea to eat just before sleeping. And you certainly not drink coffee before going to bed. Coffee will keep you awake. But don’t worry so much. If you take my advice, you’ll sleep better. If you sleep better, you won’t be tired in the day and then your should work will improve.

John and Mary’s Skiing Holiday

   Both John and Mary love skiing. After they got married, they went to Canada for their skiing holiday. They had planned it for some time but they didn’t enjoy it very much because the things didn’t go as they planned. First the taxi to the airport didn’t come, and they had to ask their friend to take them to the airport. Fortunately, they got there just in time. They got on the plane and then discovered the pilot was sick and they had to wait another two hours for another pilot. The plane finally took off, and they arrived in Canada several hours later.
