One possible version

Breakfast is very important to everyone. Although almost all the students have realized its importance, some bring our breakfast to classrooms and have it after class, or just have some junk food instead. Some even don’t have breakfast at all because we get up so late that we have to give up our breakfast in case we’re late for class.

It’s obvious that not having breakfast will do harm to our health and study. As is often seen, the students who have breakfast on time every day keep healthy and look active while those who go to school in a hurry without any breakfast frequently can’t concentrate on what our teachers say in class because we feel hungry. Worse still, we may get ill easily if we don’t have breakfast over a long period of time.

In a word, not only should we have breakfast regularly, but we should also care about its quality. Keep in mind that a good breakfast will help us grow healthily and study well.

录音材料

(Text 1)

M: How about going boating this afternoon? You are working all the time. Why can't you spare some time for me and the kids?

W: But I need to finish my work report. I promise I'll go to the cinema with you tonight.

(Text 2)

W: The rain is so annoying. It destroyed my weekend. I had intended to have a picnic.

M: Yes, my plan to climb the mountain was called off as well. I had to stay at home reviewing my lessons.

(Text 3)

W: It seems to be clearing up this afternoon.

M: It's a wonder that there's such a nice change in a short time. It may be warmer the day after tomorrow.

W: Let's just hope it won't get cold again.

(Text 4)

M: What do you think of your English teacher?

W: He can't be better. In the eyes of all my classmates, he is not only our beloved teacher but also a reliable friend.

(Text 5)

M: I heard you are busy in looking for a new house these days. Have you got one?

W: Yeah. Do you remember the big house with a garden we saw last month? I've decided to buy it.

M: But it is far from downtown. It is very inconvenient for you to live there.

W: But it is very quiet and peaceful. And that is what I want.

(Text 6)

M: And what's the next problem?

W: Why do English people so often say something about the weather when they begin talking with strangers?

M: Well, of course the weather in England is always changing. You never know what to expect. If you are in a country where the weather doesn't change much, it will be difficult to say much about it. But you ask why we talk about weather to strangers. That is an interesting question. It's probably because the weather is a safe subject to talk about.

W: It is a way of reaching agreement.

M: Yes, I begin by saying "A cold morning, isn't it?" The other man says "It certainly is." I say, "It has been cold all week." And the other man says, "Yes, we are having a very cold spring."

W: So far, you have agreed about everything.

M: Then we are beginning to feel friendly. But if we start with subjects on which disagreement is possible, politics, for example, we might not have become friendly.

(Text 7)

M: Hi, Betty, would you like to go to a lecture tomorrow?

W: What is it about?

M: A new invention that helps the disabled.

W: That's great. I want to write a report about some inventors. Who will give the lecture?

M: Doctor Baker.

W: I heard about Baker not long ago. He has a disability in his left hand. Will it be him?

M: Exactly. Several years ago, a serious fire happened and he was trapped in the fire. At last he was rescued, but he lost his left hand.

W: That must have made it very difficult for him to succeed.

M: Of course. After that he decided to help the disabled. After many experiments, he designed a device to help those with a disability. He managed to overcome all the difficulties and succeeded at last.

W: That must have required great determination and perseverance. By the way, when does the lecture begin?

M: At about 8:30.

(Text 8)

W: I was told that you travelled abroad last month. Where did you go, Rome or Paris?

M: Well, I do like Paris a lot but Ann loves Rome better. You know, nowadays the child always has the final word on where to go during the holiday.

W: Ha-ha, yes, I often follow my daughter's opinion, too. How did you like your travel?

M: I'd rather I hadn't taken the trip. I got sick all the time.

W: I can imagine. East or west, home is the best.

M: But Ann enjoyed herself very much. She was really fond of travelling.

W: Little girls always like travelling. I also liked travelling when I was her age.

M: So when did you travel abroad last time?

W: About three years ago. I travelled with my daughter. It was a bad experience. I even had an accident when taking a taxi in Tokyo. So I decided never to travel in Japan again after that.

(Text 9)

W: I saw David in the hospital yesterday. What's wrong with him?

M: He had a traffic accident yesterday morning. He hurt his arm.

W: He drives fast. He really should change this bad habit.

M: But it wasn't his fault yesterday.

W: Then whose fault was it?

M: Well, he was driving carefully yesterday, because his daughter was in the car. But suddenly, a truck appeared and blocked their way. The truck driver was drunk. It was his fault.

W: That was very dangerous.

M: Sure it was. Luckily, David is a good driver. He avoided the truck. But his car hit a tree and his right arm was injured.

W: Did his daughter get hurt?

M: Luckily, she didn't. But she was frightened. She cried out loudly.

W: I'm sure she'll have bad dreams. People should never drive when they are drunk.

(Text 10)

M: Lucy, What a pity! I failed in the English test again. It's so hard for me to learn English. Why does it seem so easy for you?

W: I really didn't know you had trouble in learning English. You know I have lived in America for three years, and maybe that's the reason why it's easy for me now.

M: Well, I study very hard and go to classes regularly, but I haven't made any progress in English so far. Can you offer me some advice on how to improve my English?

W: Er, I think the first thing for you to do is know the meaning of at least 3,000 English words as quickly as possible. Next, you’d better read as many English passages as you can, then you can listen to English songs, see English movies or watch English programs. Also, you can take part in the English Corner and talk to native speakers if possible.

M: That's a good idea. But I'm too shy to speak English in public.

W: You will never learn English well unless you try and speak. If I were you, I would have a talk with the English teacher. He might have some good ideas.

M: OK. I'll have a try.
