When I was in my teens(十几岁)and 20s,hitchhiking was a main form. of long-distance transport. The kindness or curiosity of strangers（51）me all over Europe, North America, Asia and southern Africa. Some of the lift-givers became friends, many provided hospitality（52）the road.
Not only did you find out much more about a country than（53）traveling by train or plane, but also there was that element of excitement about where you would finish up that night. Hitchhiking featured importantly in Western culture. It has books and songs about it. So what has happened to （54）？
A few years ago, I asked the same question about hitchhiking in a column on a newspaper.（55）of people from all over the world responded with their view on the state of hitchhiking.
“If there is a hitchhiker's （56）it must be Iran, ”came one reply. Rural Ireland was recommended as a friendly place for hitchhiking,（57）was Quebec, Canada-“if you don't mind being berated(严厉指责)for not speaking French.”
But while hitchhiking was clearly still alive and well in many parts of the world, the （58）feeling was that throughout much of the west it was doomed(消亡).
With so much news about crime in the media, people assumed that anyone on the open road without the money for even a bus ticket must present a danger. But do we（59）to be so wary both to hitchhike and to give a lift？
In Poland in the 1960s,（60）a Polish woman who e-mailed me, “the authorities introduced the Hitchhiker's Booklet. The booklet contained coupons for drivers, so each time a driver（61）somebody, he or she received a coupon. At the end of the season,（62）who had picked up the most hikers were rewarded with various prizes. Everybody was hitchhiking then.”
Surely this is a good idea for society. Hitchhiking would increase respect by breaking down（63）between strangers. It would help fight（64）warming by cutting down on fuel consumption as hitchhikers would be using existing fuels. It would also improve educational standards by delivering instant（65）in geography, history, politics and sociology.
听力原文：M: Hi, Sarah, what's up？
W: Oh, hi. I just got out of a history class. I had to give a presentation.
M: How did it go？
W: Terrible. I'm sure I made a fool of myself.
M: Why？ Weren't you prepared？
W: No, it's not that. I just get so embarrassed and nervous whenever I've to speak in front of a group of people. I stand up and my face gets red then I get even more nervous because I know everyone can see me blushing. M: It is not so bad to blush.
W: But it happens all the time. If the professor asks a question and I know the answer, I'll blush like crazy if he calls on me. Doesn't that ever happen to you？
M: No, not really. Maybe you should try to forget about the people. Look at something else in the room, like the exit sign.
W: I guess I could try that. But I doubt it will help.
M: You know we talked about this in psychology class. Blushing, even though it's involuntary, is more ore less a learned behavior.
W: What do you mean？
M: Oh, children hardly ever blush at all. And, among adults, supposedly women blush more than men.
W: I wonder why.
M: I don't know. But I had a friend in high school, Brian Smith. It was really easy to make him blush. He turned red whenever a waitress would ask him for his order.
W: I'm not that bad. Well, I've got to get going for my next class. I'll talk to you later.
