听力原文

W: Did you drink the milk I left for you?

M: Oh no, I’ve been so focused on this difficult math problem that I forgot.

W: You really should take better care of yourself. How about taking a short break every hour?

W: Do you ever dress up your cat?

M: I tried once, but she didn’t like it and just got out of the clothing. 

W: That’s quite common. Cats have a mind of their own when it comes to fashion.

M: I’m so hungry! Shall we get some pizza for dinner?

W: Actually, I’m into Thai food. I’ll order it from a new restaurant across town.

M: It’ll take too long to deliver. Calling the one down the street might be faster.

W: You’re here early. Our meeting won’t start for another ten minutes.

M: In German culture, being on time is highly valued. 

W: I heard that people in Switzerland like being early too. However, most Spanish people arrive right on time or even a few minutes late!

W: That was a tough workout! But attending a one-on-one exercise class is much better than doing my boring running.

M: Now do some simple moves to relax your body. This will also help you feel less tired.

M: Have you heard of an app called WeChat? Well, it’s finally coming to Europe!

W: I know some friends who have used it while traveling in China. But I first heard about it from a newspaper. 

M: It’s a convenient tool, which can send money to others and pay for products.

W: It might become popular once it spreads.

M: I agree. I don’t mind using credit cards for shopping and paying bills. But I’d love an easier way to send money between friends.

W: Hey, my family is going to a celebration tonight. Want to come?

M: I love your family’s cultural events. Will it be like that wedding party or baby shower we went to before?

W: No. It’s a traditional festival called the Day of the Dead. We wear special clothes to show respect to our loved ones who have passed away. We believe that death is not the end. It allows us to be positive and strengthens the ties between family members.

M: Cool. Count me in! Now I must run to class. Let’s meet at the parking lot after school.

M: I’m a bit down lately. My students have difficulty in writing.

W: What writing tasks do you give?

M: Mainly research papers and summaries of short books. That’s what our school’s head teacher expects from us.

W: But writing is much more than that. Try letting students do different things, like interviewing local heroes, and writing poems. 

M: Will that help them get better at writing?

W: Sure. Focus on helping your students find a style they love. It’ll make a big difference once they fall in love with writing. I’d suggest offering several choices and letting them join groups based on their writing tasks. 

M: Great idea. Having them work together could help them encourage each other! I’ll try that.

W: I’ve just finished organizing our Western paintings for tomorrow’s tour.

M: Great. Traditional Mexican silver brought in big crowds last week. And earlier today, people enjoyed the Chinese writing art show. I’m confident it’ll be another success.

W: Definitely. Our East Meets West art museum isn’t just about telling the rich history of art traditions, or showing the unique designs by different skilled people. What we’re trying to do is to show all kinds of art from around the world. 

M: Great point. Should we bring the group together in the showroom at 8:30 tomorrow? 

W: I think half an hour earlier would be better. And I recommend giving them an hour to share their opinions on their favorite artworks. That will be a good start.

M: OK. We’ll finally show the group that it’s not just about seeing different styles of works but understanding how art connects cultures.

M: Hey, everyone! Dr. Jones here. And I’m speaking today to present some tips from my new book. As a former professional athlete, I was always interested in the “mental game” of sports. My basketball coach used to say that performance is mainly about 85% mental factors and only 15% physical ones. So, after an accident that ended my playing days, I started studying the mind and I’ve found some helpful suggestions. First, did you know that smiling can make you feel better? It’s not just about looking friendly. In fact, this simple act can improve your mental health. Another idea is to practice imagining an activity before doing it. Try to feel the success of finishing it perfectly. Then, you’ll be more likely to succeed in real life. But my most preferred idea is the “growth thinking style”. It’s about believing in yourself no matter how hard the situation is. Count on the power of “yet”. You might not be great at something yet, but with hard work, you will be!
