SECTION B INTERVIEW
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.
Now listen to the interview.
听力原文:H: Welcome to our show. Today we're going to discuss some important questions about woman and inheritance. For example, what happens to a woman when her husband dies, and who becomes the rightful owner of her property? Is there anything a woman can do to ensure that she receives the property,? To help us answer these and other questions, we've invited a lawyer, Mrs. Elizabeth Mutwa, to join us. Welcome to the show Mrs. Mutwa.
M: Thank you. It's a pleasure to be here.
H: Mrs. Mutwa, let me start by asking you this. What are some of the concerns you have about women and the inheritance laws that affect them?
M: Every day I meet women whose husbands are dying. These women are afraid that they are going to lose everything their home, their land, their livestock.., and they believe there is nothing they can do about it. That is a terrible, desperate feeling.
H: Yes, to feel that you are going to lose everything is terrifying.
M: Of course it is. And I'm sorry to say that often a woman does lose everything--because the property is taken by her husband's relatives. We call this property grabbing.
H: Is there any way to prevent property grabbing and return property to the woman?
M: Yes. Women have legal rights to land and other properties, But unfortunately, most women don't know this. So they don't take any action.
H: You mean women think that the law is against them--so they don't challenge it?
M: That's right. But again, I want to make this very clean The law is not against women. Women have rights to keep property--they just don't know it!
H: So, it's important for women to understand what rights they have, and how the law works.
M: Exactly. Once they know the laws, they can take steps to make sure that they keep their home and their land.
H: Okay, so I guess that when women come to you for help, this is one of the things you recommend--learn a- bout the local laws. What else can a woman do?
M: I always recommend that a woman do three things. First.. Discuss the importance of making a will with your husband. Encourage him to make a will in the presence of witnesses. Number two: Find out if it is possible to register the home where you live with your husband. If you can, you will remain the owner of the land and house after your husband's death. Number three; Get legal advice from a lawyer, a paralegal or a local organization that offers this type of assistance. They can help you understand your rights and the law.
H: Mrs. Mutwa, I think the advice that you've offered here on the program will help many women. Do you think that this kind of property grabbing will definitely affect women's lives after their husbands' death?
M: Definitely. Some of the women hope that the inheritance given by their husbands would help them out. Well, as a matter of fact, however, the fact proves that they always lose their things left by their husbands as their husbands' relatives always ask her to divide the things with them. The relatives put forward that property and asset in her family are mostly produced by the husband. And so the wife should not take all of them away. The women have no idea about what she deserves, some of them even take it for granted that the property should be returned to the husband's family. This is the essence of the problem I hope that women should have this kind of awareness that they should go to seek for help from some professional lawyers.
H: Thank you for joining us today.
M: You're most welcome.

It has always been difficult for the philosopher or scientists to fit time into his view of the universe. Prior to Einsteinian physics, there was no truly adequate formulation of the relationship of time to the other forces in the universe, even though some empirical equations included time qualities. However, even the Einsteinian formulation is not perhaps totally adequate to the job of fitting time into the proper relationship with the other dimensions, as they are called, of space. The primary problem arises in relation to things that might be going faster than the speed of light, or have other strange properties,
Examination of the Lorentz-Fitsgerald formulas yields the interesting speculation that if something did actually exceed the speed of light it would have its mass expressed as an imaginary number and would seem to be going backwards in time. The barrier to exceeding the speed of light is the apparent need to have an infinite quantity of mass moved at exactly the speed of light. If this situation could be leaped over in a large quantum jump--which seems highly unlikely for masses that are large in normal circumstances--then the other side may he achievable.
The idea of going backward in time is derived from the existence of a time vector that is negative, although just what this might mean to our senses in the unlikely circumstance of our experiencing this state cannot be conjectured.
There have been, in fact, some observations of particle chambers which have led some scientists to speculate that a particle called the tachyon may exist with the trans-light properties we have just discussed.
The difficulties of imagining and coping with these potential implications of our mathematical models points out the importance of studying alternative methods of notation for advanced physics. Professor Zuckerandl, in his book Sound and Symbol, hypothesized that it might be better to express the relationships bund in quantum mechanics through the use of a notation derived from musical notations. To oversimplify greatly, he argues that music has always given time a special relationship to other factors or parameters or dimensions. Therefore, it might be a more useful language in which to express the relationships in physics where time again has a special role to play, and cannot be treated as just another dimension.
The point of this, or any other alternative to the current methods of describing basic physical processes, is that time does not appear--either by common experience or sophisticated scientific understanding--to be the same sort of dimension or parameter as physical dimensions, as is deserving of completely special treatment, in a system of notation designed to accomplish that goal.
One approach would be to consider time to be a field effect governed by the application of energy to mass that is to say, by the interaction of different forms of energy, if you wish to keep in mind the equivalence of mass and energy. The movement of any normal sort of mass is bound to produce a field effect that we call positive time. An imaginary mass would produce a negative time field effect. This is not at variance with Einstein's theories, since the "faster" a given mass moves the more energy was applies to it and the greater would be the field effect The time effects predicted by Einstein and confirm by experience are, it seems, consonant with this concept.

The passage supports the inference that ______.

A. Einstein's theory of relativity is wrong
B. the Lorentz-Fitzgerald formulas contradict Einstein's theories
C. time travel is dearly possible
D. it is impossible to travel at precisely the speed of light
