听力原文: There are three kinds of things you need to learn if you want to be able to communicate effectively with Westerners. First, you need to learn a foreign language, usually English. Second, you should learn as much as possible about Western cultures. However, studying English language and Western culture is not enough. You should also learn something about what happens when different people from different cultures try to communicate with each other—in other words, "intercultural communication." When you study English, you are not just learning a foreign language. You are learning how to reach across barriers of culture and language. Peace and good relations between nations, people, and cultures need to be based on mutual understanding. As you study English, you are learning how to be an ambassador who can serve as a bridge between China and the world, a "translator" who can help people of China and other countries better understand each other. The more you understand about intercultural communication, the more effective you will be as an ambassador for your own culture and as a bridge between your culture and others.

听力原文:W: Dad!
M: Yes? What's the matter, Mary?
W: I'm wondering if I should buy a pair of tennis shoes. I'm going to join the tennis club at school.
M: Why hot? It' s good that you' re finally playing sports.
W: But I'd like to have Adidas.
M: Adidas? They're expensive. The Chicago Bulls wear them, after all!
W: No. All the guys on the school tennis team are wearing Adidas, boys as well as girls.
M: But none of us ever had Adidas and we used to play quite well.
W: Here, Dad, is an ad about Adidas. Can I read it to you?
M: Go ahead.
W: 'Over forty years ago, Adidas gave birth to a new idea in sports shoes, And the people who wear our shoes have been running and winning ever since. In fact, Adidas has helped them set over 400 world records in track and field alone. '
M: Nonsense! The players have to go through a lot of hard training and practice. It's nothing to do with the shoes. They may be comfortable, but....
W: You're right, Dad. The ad goes on to say 'You are born to run. And we were born to HELP YOU DO IT BET- TER.'
M: Hmm. It may be good for running, but you don't run.
W: Listen, '... Maybe that's why more and more football, soccer, basketball and tennis', see? 'TENNIS players are turning to Adidas. They know that, whatever their game, they can rely on Adidas workmanship and quality in every product we make. '
M: OK, OK, dear. I know Adidas is good. But how much is a pair in your size?
W: You don' t have to worry about that, Dad. I've saved same money since last Christmas. I just want to hear your opinion.
M: That's good. I have been wanting to have a pair of Adidas sneakers myself.

听力原文: I travel quite a lot in Beijing. I think the underground railway is marvelous. I nearly always travel by tube because it is fast and cheap. But I also like to travel by bike, particularly for short journeys. Beijing's public transport is quite efficient. You can go almost wherever you like by public transport. Buses usually run at very short intervals. But they are rather crowded and slow, particularly in the rush hour. The roads get very congested and there are traffic jams at busy crossroads. When you are in a hurry, the best way to travel in Beijing is by tube. Taxis get held up in traffic jams and besides, the fares are quite high.
In China today the most common way of traveling is still by rail, although traveling by car or coach is getting more and more popular. We have almost all the provinces and big cities connected by the railways. There are over 53,000 kilometers of track in China. Rail transport provides a very important service to the public, to industry and commerce. Rail fares are usually lower than airfares. They are almost the same as coach fares, but traveling by train is more comfortable than traveling by car or coach.
