[01:17.37]You will hear the story ONLY ONCE.

[01:22.02]You now have 60 seconds to read Questions 1--10

[01:28.27]G:Hello. Professor Wang.

[01:31.61]Nice to see you back again.

[01:35.24]How was your trip to Edinburgh?

[01:39.11]W:It was fascinating.

[01:42.45]I didn't even think about coming back.

[01:47.00]I paid a visit to the University of Edinburgh,

[01:51.75]and spent three whole days lecturing on Chinese folklore 1

[01:57.81]to a group of international students.  G:Well done,

[02:03.45]Well, how did you like the city?

[02:07.90]W:Very much indeed.

[02:11.06]It is a very attractive city.

[02:15.00]I spent one day in the city

[02:18.84]visiting those fantastic castles and museums.

[02:24.40]I never expected

[02:27.57]there to be so many places of interest in one city.

[02:33.21]And I was so lucky

[02:36.76]as to have bumped into a former student of mine.

[02:42.51]He is doing his Ph.D.

[02:46.37]at the Department of Applied 2 Linguistics,Edinburgh University.

[02:51.91]He took me to the lake area the following day,

[02:56.98]where I saw elegant peaks,beautiful lakes and exotic rocks.

[03:04.14]It was very impressive.

[03:07.69]G:Boy,that sounds inviting 3.I really envy you.

[03:13.44]I must make a trip to that area one of these days.

[03:18.69]W:Are you kidding?

[03:21.64]I can't believe as a native of England

[03:26.08]that you have never been to Edinburgh.

[03:30.65]G:That's nothing strange about it.

[03:34.80]In fact,many foreigners

[03:38.54]have more opportunities to see Great Britain

[03:43.19]than many of the British who have lived here all their lives.

[03:48.41]Would you believe me that I have never been on board of a plane?

[03:54.34]W:That is hard to believe.

[03:57.82]I always thought that you British have more opportunities to travel.

[04:05.05]However,I'll take your word for it.

[04:09.70]G:Did you take a lot of photos there?

[04:13.68]W:Yes.I took a lot of pictures,

[04:18.22]some prints and some slides,too.

[04:22.77]It cost me a small fortune to have them developed and printed.

[04:28.72]G:I believe it did.

[04:31.99]Everything is expensive in Britain.

[04:36.14]Well,may I have a look at your photos?

[04:40.58]W:By all means.Here is my album.

[04:45.34]G:Thank you.

[04:47.90]Say, Professor Wang, you are quite artistic 4.

[04:53.15]I like the way you arrange your photos.

[04:58.40]My word!You have lots of good shots here.

[05:03.86]I especially like this one.

[05:07.80]The castle looks so gracious against the blue sky and the white clouds.

[05:14.64]W:We spent almost a whole morning at the Castle Museum.

[05:20.71]It was charming,

[05:23.66]When I got on top of the hill,

[05:27.52]I had a birds-eye view of city.

[05:32.56]It was incredibly beautiful.

[05:36.61]G:You certainly had a good time in Edinburgh.

[05:40.98]And it's so interesting for me to see things through a foreigner's eye.

[05:47.12]I am also quite impressed

[05:51.09]that you are such a good photographer

[05:54.93]W:Thank you.

[05:57.49]This trip has really helped me to know more about England

[06:03.62]By the way,have you got the time?

[06:07.60]G:It's a quarter to ten.

[06:10.94]W:Oh,dear!I'm afraid I've got to fly.

[06:15.98]I have anappointment at ten o'colck.

[06:31.89]2.Wang visited the lake area by himself.

[07:28.37]You have 15 seconds to read Questions 11--13

[07:34.61]Good evening,everyone.

[07:37.96]Welcome to this lecture on reading hygiene 6.

[07:42.79]Perhaps you would ask what is reading hygiene?

[07:48.14]Well,hygiene tells us how to live comfortably and healthfully:

[07:54.80]it helps us to make the best use of our bodies.

[07:59.35]Reading hygiene,then tells us how to make the use of our eyes--

[08:05.10]how to prevent eyestrain and how to read more comfortably.

[08:10.45]First and foremost,

[08:13.51]let us see what would happen if you misuse 7 your eyes

[08:18.26]When your eyes are not used properly,they let you know in various ways

[08:24.72]Your eyes may hurt and your eyelids 8 become red.

[08:29.78]You may not be able to see clearly.

[08:33.62]You may have headache,feel dizzy,or be uncomfortable in other ways.

[08:40.78]The human eye will stand hard use,but not abuse.

[08:46.24]Every day you have many opportunities to use your eyes wisely and well.

[08:52.98]Here are some good hints for good eye health

[08:57.45]that everyone can follow:

[09:01.08]Rest your eyes before they get tired.

[09:05.20]If you are reading for a long time,

[09:09.07]you can just close your eyes from time to time

[09:13.93]or look off at some distant object,

[09:18.27]you will find that doing this relaxes your eye muscles,

[09:23.52]just as a good stretch relaxes your body.

[09:27.88]Never be careless about lighting 9

[09:31.82]Do not read in either too dim a light or a glare.

[09:37.18]Be careful not to read in the twilight 10 or in direct sunlight.

[09:42.53]Have the kind of light in which you see most clearly and comfortably.

[09:48.20]Hold the book the distance from your eyes

[09:52.25]at which you can read most easily and comfortably.

[09:57.01]Many people read comfortably with the book

[10:01.05]about fourteen inches from their eyes.

[10:05.31]But each of us must find the distance that is best for him.

[10:10.56]Try not to read much while traveling on a moving train or bus.

[10:16.00]That causes eyestrain for many people.

[10:20.33]You can use the time doing other things,

[10:24.77]or thinking about what you've read.

[10:28.82]Your eyes are your most faithful servants.

[10:33.16]Like friends,if treated well,

[10:37.31]they will help you for many years.
