The producer appeared behind the recording studio window and smiled and waved to me like an old friend. And after I had read out a little test piece, he said,“That's fine, wonderful, Your voice is perfect, lovely, wonderful.”Then I read a longer passage in English about the delights of touring in Britain, and another about the delights of visiting
London, and both were“excellent”and“just right”, and I began to consider a job in radio. To be honest, I was fairly sure of myself though I lacked experience. Across the room in the Hamburg News Agency where we both worked, a friend named Peter Turner called to me, “I say, Mike, a man on the phone here wants someone to do a recording in English, and I'm booked up. Would you read something to him in English as a sort of test?”I did, and they said,“Perfect, lovely, wonderful…”Would I cane round?
It was after reading their passage in English in the studio that they noticed my vowel pronunciations were not altogether King's English, or even Prince Philip's, there was a larger silence than usual, then the voice said,“Fine, lovely, but you said the word ‘castle’with a short ‘a(chǎn)’. Could we have the passage again, please? But this time say ‘carsele’.”
This was easy. But then he noticed other differences in my pronunciation.
“It's my northern English accent,”I said, angry, because I had to apologize for it.
“Oh, I see…but Mr. Jamieson, we'll have to get it right, I'm afraid. The recording is for teaching English to German schoolchildren, and it must be spoken in the way it is taught in German schools.”
I read the passage again and again. But of course you cannot change the pronunciation of a lifetime in an hour. The studio men were in the state of having lost hope and underlined the vowels which caused me to feel angry, so that I'd remember them. Few, really. But because I had to concentrate(集中) on them, I made a lot of mistakes in my reading. Everyone got somewhat angry, so we all went out for a beer.
1．Broadcasting did not make Mike nervous ________.
[ ]
A．a(chǎn)lthough he had never done any before
B．because he worked in a news agency

3．They wanted Mike to change his pronunciation because ________.
[ ]
A．German schoolchildren didn't like a northern accent
B．German schoolchildren were taught through recordings

Decision-thinking is not unlike poker —it often matters not only what you think. but also what others think you think and what you think they think you think, The mental process (過程) is similar. Naturally, this card game has often been of considerable interest to people who are, by any standards. good thinkers.
The great mathematician John von Neumann was one of the founders of game theory. In particular, he showed that all games fall into two classes: there are what he called games of perfect information, games like chess where the players can't hide anything or play tricks: they don't win by chance, but by means of logic and skills. Then there are games of imperfect information, like poker, in which it is impossible to know in advance that one course of action is better than another.
One mistaken idea about business is that it can be treated as a game of perfect information. Quite the reverse. Business, politics, life itself are games which we must normally play with very imperfect information. Business decisions are often made with many unknown and unknown able factors (因素), which would even puzzle (困惑) best pokers players. But few business people find it comfortable to admit that they are taking a chance, and many still prefer to believe that they are playing chess, not poker.
1．The subject discussed in this text is ________.
A. the process of reaching decisions
B. the difference between poker and chess
C. the secret of making good business plans
D. the value of information in winning games
2．An important factor in a game of imperfect information is ________.
A. rules
B. luck
C. time
D. ideas
3．Which of the following can be used in place of “Quite the reverse”?
A. Quite right.
B. True enough.
C. Most unlikely.
D. Just the opposite.
4．In the writer's opinion, when making business decisions one should ________.
A. put perfect information before imperfect information
B. accept the existence of unknown factors
C. regard business as a game of chess
D. mix known and unknown factor

Man always wanted to fly. For hundreds of years they watched birds flying and wished that they could fly, too. Birds fly very easily. They spread(展開) their wings(翅膀) and float (漂浮) on the air. The air keeps them up for many hours.“If birds and kites can stay up in the air, perhaps we can, too.”they thought.
At first they made wings like birds. Then they jumped off high buildings in order to fly. Many men did this but they all failed. After many failures (失敗) they stopped trying to fly with wings. Then two brothers tried another way. They tried balloons (氣球).“Hot air is lighter than cold air,”they said, “That is why hot air goes upwards. If we fill a balloon with hot air, it will go upwards.”
After many experiments, they made two men go up in a balloon full of hot air. A great crowd of people watched. The balloon rose to a height (高度) of 900 metres. The wind blew it along for nine kilometers. Then it came gently back to earth. For the first time man traveled through the air!

There are 25,000 kinds of bees identified in the world. The most well-known are the honey bee. In the United States there are known 3,500 species. Most bees do not live in large groups, they are solitary(獨居的)bees. The honey bee is not a native of the United States. The first bees were brought to the U.S. from Holland. Later other bees were brought from many other countries. South America had some honey bees, but they did not produce much honey.
When honey bees were brought to the United States, native American called them“white man's flies”. Soon bees became a known sight in America.
In Brazil, honey bees did not survive well and scientists brought African bees to Brazil. These bees were found to be aggressive(好斗的) and mistakenly escaped into the wild. These bees are very common in Brazil now.
Beekeepers raise bees for honey, but more often they raise them to pollinate crops. Pollination occurs when the bee lands on a flower and some of the pollen(花粉)gets stuck to the bees' hairy legs. The next time the bee lands, some of the pollen falls off her legs and onto another flower, allowing it to reproduce.
Beekeepers have been raising bees for their honey for thousands of years. The first beekeepers kept their bees in hollow logs or clay pots. Now they keep the bees in wooden hives. When beekeepers raise bees for honey, they must remove part of the hive to retrieve (獲取) the honey. They must“calm”the bees by using a special smoker. The smoke is puffed out around the bees and the bees move slower and are not as aggressive.
1．What's the best title for the passage?
[ ]
A．An Introduction to Bees. B．Why Bees Are Kept.
C．The Great Use of Bees. D．Bees in the USA.
2．What's the meaning of the underlined word“pollinate”?
[ ]
A．Make something fertile (結果實的) with pollen.
B．Get pollen away from.
C．Plant.
D．Harm.
3．From the passage we can infer that _____.
[ ]
A．bees want their honey to he taken away in order to get more room
B．a(chǎn)ll bees are kept by raisers
C．bees don't want their honey to be taken away
D．it is easy to retrieve the honey

Young adult filmmakers all hope to show their works in international festivals like Sundance and Toronto. But what about really young filmmakers who aren’t in film school yet and aren’t, strictly speaking, even adults?
They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Kids Films Festival, tomorrow, in a setting any director might envy: Lincoln Center. Complete with “red carpet” interviews and various awards, the festival has much in common with events for more experienced moviemakers, except for the age of the participants: about 8 to 18.
“What’s really exciting is that it’s film for kids by kids,” said Cori Gardner, managing director of Wingspan Arts, a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington, Virginia. “We want to make this a national event,” Ms. Gardner added.
The nine shorts to be shown range from a Claymation biography of B.B. King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. “A lot of the material is really mature,” Ms. Gardner said, talking about films by the New York City branch of Global Action Project, a media arts and leadership-training group. “The Choice is about the history of a family and Master Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke.” Dream of the Invisibles describes young immigrants’ feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.
The festival will end with an open reception at which other films will be shown. These include a music video and full-length film whose title is Pressures.
