听力原文: After teaching three years in Shanghai, I asked to go to a remote area. I finally made it. I have always thought that experts should be sent not only to big towns where there is a lot of opportunity to talk to English speakers, but also to remote areas. My experiences in Nanping, Fu jian, strengthened my opinions.
I recently spent a month in Nanping, teaching English to teachers of English from North Fu jian. It was an experience I shall never forget. There were about 50 teachers, their ages ranging from 19 to 65. There was also a wide range of levels. Most of them had never met a native English speaker before, and few had been on courses taught by an English-speaking expert. I was very impressed with the way in which they worked together. The more advanced students patiently helped the less advanced. They spent considerable time -- some till late into the night going over the material they had learnt.
The students were full of enthusiasm and made the most of the month's course. I learnt a lot more about China. It was a very worthwhile experience, and I hope to have the opportunity to do so again. It was a perfect example of what can be achieved with good cooperation.
Why did the speaker want to work in Nanping?
A.He thought experts were more needed there.
B.He wanted to have a good time there.
C.He was invited to work there.
D.He didn't like to stay in Shanghai any longer.

听力原文: A new study suggests that very young children who watch a lot of television may have attention problems later in school.
Children with attention problems cannot sit still or control their actions. They talk too much, lose things, forget easily and are not able to finish tasks.
The new study tested the idea that television watching by very young children is linked to attention problems by the age of seven. It involved more than 1,300 children. There were two groups of children, aged one and three. Researchers asked the parents how often the children watched television. The parents also described their children's actions at the age of seven using a method that can tell if someone suffers from attention problems.
The children who watched a lot of television at an early age were most likely to have attention problems. Every hour of watching television increased the chances of having attention problems by about ten percent. For example, children who watched three hours a day were thirty percent more likely to have attention problems than those who watched no television.
One of the researchers said there are other reasons why children should not watch television. Earlier studies have linked it with children becoming too fat and too aggressive. Other experts say the new study is important, but more work needs to be done to confirm the findings and better explain the cause and effect.

W: It did, but not as much as experts have predicted. It seems to have had a beneficial effect as well.

W: A mass destruction of various insect population.
M: How could the ash kill insects without effecting people too?
