听力原文: A person's social prestige seems to be determined mainly by his or her job. Occupations are valued in terms of the incomes associated with them, although other factors can also be relevant—particular the amount of education a given occupation requires and the degree of control over others it pro vides. The holders of political power also tend to have high prestige.
Unlike power and wealth, which do not seem to be becoming more equally shared, the symbols of prestige have become available to an increasing number of Americans. The main reason is the radical change in the nature of jobs over the course of this century. In 1900 nearly 40 percent of the labor force were farm workers and less than 20 percent held white-collar jobs. At the beginning of the 1980s, however, less than 5 percent of the labor force worked on farms and white-collar workers were the largest single occupation al category. Blue-collar workers, the largest category in the mid-fifties, now constitute less than a third of all workers. The increase in the proportion of high-prestige jobs has allowed a much greater number of Americans to enjoy these statuses and the life-styles that go with them.

听力原文: Research indicates that parents who reward self-control and independence tend to have children with high achievement motivation. Such parents set high standards for their children but allow them to work at their own level and to make their own mistakes. By contrast, parents of low need achievers typically set impossibly high goals for their children and make extreme demands. In addition, parents of high need achievers encourage good performance but do not scold their children when they fail. If a child comes home from school with four A's and one B on a report card, the parents focus on the A's; parents of a potential low need achiever tend to ask, "Why the B?" Parents of high need achievers respond to moderate grades with warmth and suggestions for reasonable goals and ways to reach them. Parents of low need achievers might say, "You're dumb and lazy; you'll never amount to anything." And then they punish the child. When a child is having trouble with a maths problem, the parent of a potentially high need achiever will suggest the general procedure and let the child work out the particular solution; a low need achiever's parent will solve the problem and then hand the child the answer.
That needs for achievement exist with all of us, to varying degrees, is undeniable. A great deal more is known about the psychological bases of these needs and how they come about.
