听力原文：Indonesian prosecutors have asked judges to sentence the son of former President Suharto to 15 years in prison for the murder of a judge. Some legal groups say they are surprised by what they consider a request so lenient sentence.
Prosecutors say they decided against demanding a harsher sentence against Hutomo Mandala Putra, known as Tommy Suharto. Prosecutors say he is young and has a family to support. They also say he has been well-behaved in court. Mr. Suharto is accused of ordering the murder of a Supreme Court judge, a crime that eanies a maximum sentence of death. A verdict is expected to be handed down in about a month. But some legal experts say the requested sentence is too light.
Tommy Suharto is accused of masterminding the murder of Justice Syafiuddin Kartasasmita.The judge had sentenced Mr. Suharto to 18 months in prison for corruption, but that conviction was later overturned. Mr. Suharto fled after his conviction in 2000 and eluded authorities for more than a year. Analysts think it is likely he had the assistance of corrupt members of Indonesia's police or armed forces.

听力原文：M: Though should chocolate lovers everywhere be rejoicing today, Samantha Heller is a contributing editor of Health Magazine and a clinical nutritionist at New York University Medical Center. Hey Samantha, good morning.
W: Good morning.
M: People tend to do the one plus one equals two, and consider things OK. I just heard this news and l'm going out buying a lot of chocolate. Bad idea？
W: It's a bad idea. And the reason is that the way we process chocolate in this country—the way we dilute with a lot of sugar and fat takes out a lot of the healthy compounds.
M: And I am basically talking about that dark chocolate is good tor you. In this comma/there are more people who tend to consume milk chocolate.
W: That's right.That's diluted and it's treated to take the bitterness of dark chocolate out. And that's also taking out the healthy compound that's in it.You can take, like cocoa powder and make your own hot chocolate and you're getting some of the benefits.
M: But you don't dispute the fact that this flavonoid seeder found in chocolate may be beefalo to health.
W: It may 'absolutely be beneficial but what we are finding out in research is when you isolate a compound from food that's healthy in the food, it may not have the effect by itself in your body that we would anticipate.
M: So, more research needs to be done？
W: So much more research, yes.
M: While we have you here, we want talk about some other foods in the news if you will. I've been hearing so much. Really this has been in the last couple of years. Green tea. Everybody is talking about it. You've seen it in advertisement. People I know have said that stop drinking coffee in the morning. I'm drinking green tea. What's the potential benefit here？
W: Green tea is packed with polyphenols. These are chemicals that actually help fight disease, high in anti-oxidants. Green tea has been showing to be anti-carcinogenic, anti-tumnrgenic and may even help prevent cavities.
M: No caffeine？ Is there caffeine？
W: There is some caffeine sure.
M: So by switching from coffee to green tea in the morning might we be doing some, helping ourselves？
W: You certainly might be. I don't think you will get the caffeine kick that you get from coffee, but the green tea is a great choice.
M: Alright, we've got a couple of other things we wanna talk about. First is ginger. What's the benefit to ginger？
W: Ginger, again, anti-nausea, anti-motion sickness.
M: Actually a lot of pregnant women use ginger for morning sickness.
W: Yeah. It's great for that. You can have ginger tea. It's versatile and also some of the anti-inflammatories may be good for people with arthritis.
M: Is this turmeric？
W: Yes. It's the bright yellow spice in here. And there's a compound called eureumin which has been shown to fight cancer. It's very potent, very strong.
M: We all know that fruits and vegetables are good for us, but you in particular wanna just mention today the cruciferous. That's the vegetables which are things like broccoli and Brussels sprouts.
W: That's right. Now these have compounds called indoles and others that are very anti-caneergenie, protect against stomach, colorectal cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer and may help detoxify the liver disease. These are very important, very helpful.
M: Down on the end of the table,I just wanna say here basically you say anything that comes or as a product from other animals is not good except in small amounts.
W: That's right. And the reason is that it has artery-clogging fat, saturated fat, not good for you. But the low
The result, according to Mr. Anderson director of the Social Affairs Unit, an independent thing-tank -is a society characterized by rudeness: loutish behaviour on the streets, jostling in crowds, impolite shop assistants and bad-tempered drivers.
Mr. Anderson says the cumulative effect of these-apparently trivial, but often offensive-is to make everyday life uneasy, unpredictable and unpleasant. As they are encountered far more often than crime, they can cause more anxiety than crime.
When people lament the disintegration of law and order, he argues, what they generally mean is order, as manifested by courteous forms of social contact. Meanwhile, attempts to re-establish restraint and self-control through "politically correct" rules are artificial.
The book has contributions from 12 academics in disciplines ranging from medicine to sociology and charts what it calls the "coarsening" of Britain. Old-fashioned terms such as "gentleman" and "lady" have lost all meaningful resonance and need to be re-evaluated, it says. Rachel Trickett, honorary fellow and former principal of St. Hugh's College, Oxford, says that the notion of a "lady" protects women rather than demeaning them.
Feminism and demands for equality have blurred the distinctions between the sexes, creating situations where men are able to dominate women because of their more aggressive and forceful natures, she says. "Women, without some code of deference or respect, become increasingly victims."
Caroline Moore, the first woman fellow of Peterhouse, Cambridge, points out that "gentleman" is now used only with irony or derision.
"The popular view of a gentleman is poised somewhere between the imbecile parasite and the villainous one: between Woosteresque chinless wonders, and those heartless capitalist toffs who are ~.. the stock-in-trade of television."
She argues that the concept is neither class-bound nor rigid; conventions of gentlemanly behaviour enable a man to act naturally as an individual within shared assumptions while taking his place in society.
"Politeness is no constraint, precisely because the manners...are no 'code' but a language, rich, flexible, restrained and infinitely subtle."
For Anthony O'hear, professor of philosophy at the University of Bradford, manners are closely associated with the different forms of behaviour appropriate to age and status. They curb both the impetuosity of youth and the bitterness of old age.
Egalitarianism, he says, has led to people failing to act their age. "We have vice-chancellors with earrings, aristocrats as hippies...the trendy vicar on his motorbike."
Dr Athena Leoussi, sociology lecturer at Reading University, bemoans the deliberate neglect by people of their sartorial appearance.
Dress, she says, is the outward expression of attitudes and aspirations. The ubiquitousness of jeans "displays a utilitarian attitude" that has "led to the cultural impoverishment of everyday life".
Dr Leoussi says that while cloths used to be seen as a means of concealing taboo forces of sexuality and violence, certain fashions-such as leather jackets have the opposite effect.
Dr Bruce Charlton, a lecturer in public health medicine in Newcastle upon Tyne, takes issue with the excessive informality of relations between professionals such as doctors and bank managers, and their clients. He says this has eroded the distance and respect necessary in such relationships. For Tristam Engelhardt, professor of medicine in Houston, Texas, says manners are bound to morals.
"Manners express a p
听力原文： A researcher at the University of Rochester in New York has found that workers exposed to high levels of lead on the job have an increased risk of dying from brain cancer. Epidemiologist Edwin Van Wijngaarden looked at data about more than 300,000 people over a nine-year period, comparing the kinds of jobs they had with their causes of death, and he saw a correlation. Mechanics are among the workers more likely to develop deadly brain tumors due to occupational lead exposure. He says, automobile and heavy equipment mechanics, painters and welders—who were more likely to be exposed to lead for longer periods of time—had even higher risks of developing brain cancer than workers unexposed to lead. Most research on lead has focused on its effect on children. Van Wijngaarden says not much is known about its impact over a lifetime. Wijngaarden found only 119 brain tumor deaths. He is continuing his research, looking now at patients who already have brain tumors, to see whether they have higher levels of lead in their bones than other patients.
Who are NOT mentioned as people more likely to he exposed to lead？
