听力原文： Exchange a glance with someone, then look away. Do you realize that you have made a statement？ Hold the glance for a second longer, and you have made a different statement. Hold it for 3 seconds, and the meaning has changed again. For every social situation, there is a permissible time that you can hold a person's gaze without being intimate, rude, or aggressive. If you are on an elevator, what gaze-time are you permitted？ To answer this question, consider what you typically do. You very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no threat. Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction. You need to emit a signal telling others you want to be left alone, so you cut off eye contact. You look down at the floor, at the indicator lights, anywhere but into another passenger's eyes. Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on an elevator, you will make the other person exceedingly uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself. If you hold eye contact for more than 3 seconds, what are you telling another person？ Much depends on the person and the situation.

Exchange a glance with someone, and then look away. 46 Hold the glance for a sec-ond longer, and you have made a different statement.Hold for 3 seconds, and the mean-ing has changed again. For every social situation, there is a permissible time that you can hold a person's gaze without being intimate, rude, or aggressive.If you are on an eleva-tor, what gaze-time are you permitted？ 47 You very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no threat.Since being close to an-other person signals the possibility of interaction, you need to emit a signal telling others you want to be left alone.So you cut off eye contact, what sociologist Erving Goffman(1963) calls "a dimming of the lights". 48 Should you break the rule against staring at a stranger on an elevator, you will make the other person exceedingly uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.
If you hold eye contact for more than 3 seconds, what are you telling another person？ 49 For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest in this manner.They typical-ly gaze at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, then drop their eyes down for 3 sec-onds, before letting their eyes meet again.But if one man gives another man a 3-second-plus stare, he signals "I know you." "I am interested in you." Or " 50 " This type of stare often produces hostile feelings.
A．To answer this question, consider what you typically do.
B．If one is looked at by a stranger for too long, he tends to feel curious.
C． You look down at the floor, at the indicator lights, anywhere but into another pas-senger's eyes.
D．Do you realize that you have made a statement？
E．Much depends on the person and the situation.
F．You look peculiar and I am curious about you.

听力原文：W: Hello, sir. What can I do for you？
M: Hi. I have this cassette player here that I bought a few months ago, and it just ruined four of my favorite cassettes.
W: I'm sorry.
M: So, I'd like you to fix it or refund my money.
W: May I see your sales slip, please？
M: Yeah, here it is.
W: I'm sorry, sir. Your warranty was good for only six months. It expired ten days ago.
M: Well, what difference does ten days make？ The machine was obviously defective when I bought it.
W: Well, the workers in our service center can look at it, but there will be a charge.
M: A charge？ I thought you would fix it for free.
W: I'm sorry, sir. Your warranty has run out. There's nothing I can do for yon.
M: No. No, look. I didn't drop it off a building or anything. I mean, what difference can ten days make？ I mean, you can...
W: Sir, I'm sorry, we have the six-month rule for a reason. We can't...
M: Well, you can bend the rule a little bit, can't you？
W: Make an exception for you？ Then we'll have to make one for everybody. Well, sir, you knew when your warranty ran out. You should have brought it in before. It was guaranteed for six months and six months only. There's nothing I can do for you.

Reading for A's
Where and when and what you study are all important. But the nearest desk and the best desk light, the world's regular schedule, the best leather-covered notebook and the most expensive textbooks you can buy will do you no good unless you know how to study. And how to study, it' you don't already have some clue, is probably the hardest thing you will have to learn in college. Some students who can master the entire system of imaginary numbers mom easily than other students can discover how to study the first chapter in the algebra book. Methods of studying vary. But two things are sure; nobody else can do your studying for you, and unless you do find a system that works, you won't get through college.
Meantime, there are a few rules that work for everybody.
Rule 1
The first is don't get behind. ]he problem of studying, hard enough to start with, becomes almost impossible when you are trying to do three weeks' work in one weekend. Even the fastest readers have trouble doing that. And if you are behind in written work that must be turned in, the teacher who accepts it that late will probably not give you full credit. Perhaps he may not accept it at all.
Getting behind in one class because you are spending so much time on another is really no excuse. Feeling pretty virtuous about the seven hours you spend on chemistry won't help one bit if the history
teacher pops a quiz. And many freshmen do get into trouble by spending too much time on one class at the expense of the others, either because they like one class much better or because they find it so much harder that they think they should devote ail their time to it. Whatever the mason, going whole hog for one class and neglecting the rest of them is a mistake, If you face this temptation, begin with the shortest and easiest assignments. Get them out of the way and then go on to the more difficult, time-consuming work. Uuless you do the easy work first, you are likely to spend so much time on the long, hard work that when midnight comes, you'll say to yourself, "Oh, that English assignment was so easy, I can do it any time," and go on to bed. The English assignment, easy as it was, won't get done.
If everything seems equally easy (or equally hard), leave whatever you like best until the end. There will be more incentive at half past eleven to read a political that sounded really interesting than to begin memorizing French irregular verbs, a necessary task that strikes you as pretty dull.
In spite of the noblest efforts, however, everybody does get a little behind in .something some time. When this happens to you, catch up. Don't skip the parts you missed and try to go ahead with the rest of the class while there is still a big gap showing. What you missed may make it impossible, or at least difficult, to understand what the rest of the class is doing now. If you are behind, lengthen your study periods for a few days until you catch up. Skip .the movie you meant to see or the nap you planned to take. Stay up a little later, if you have to. But catch up.
Rule 2
The second role that works for everybody is don't be afraid to mark in textbooks. A good student's books don't finish the term looking as fresh and clean as the day they were purchased: they look used, well used. In fact, the books look as though somebody had studied them... To get your money's worth from your textbooks, you must do more with them than just read them.
To begin with, when you first get a new textbook, look at the table of contents to see what material the book covers. Flip through the pages to see what study aids the author has provided: subheadings, summaries, charts, pictures, review questions at the end of each chapter. After you have found what the whole book covers, you will be better prepared to begin studying the chapter you h

"HI there． How's it going7"
"Oh, fine． Fine． How about this weather, huh？"
"Well, I guess we can always use the rain．"
What's that？ This story？ Oh, just a little look at small talk． You know; those seemingly meaningless conversations you have dozens of times a day． Maybe you're waiting for the elevator． Or in a line at the bank． It all seems pretty trivial． Idle chatter about traffic doesn't do much more than fill the air with empty words that are quickly forgotten． But you should know that small talk actually has a big place in our lives．
Pat Oliver, assistant professor on arts, says that, "Left unchecked, small talk can be an invasion． It's so powerful． It does something to you．" "Every morning after spending an hour and a half on the freeway I start the day with small talk with my secretary," Oliver says, "If I don't make small connection with another person, I can't work．"
What causes it？ As a rule, you're either trying to force something into your life, or you're using conversation as an invisible force field to keep them out． You can be wanting to connect with another person, and small talk is your introduction to more meaningful conversation．
The way people use small talk is usually determined by where they happen to be at the time． Take the elevator, for instance． Now there's prime territory． Nobody knows anyone and there's no reason no start a conversation, but invariably, someone does． Making conversation in such peaceful social settings, according to oliver, "can confirm your territory． It's a way of feeling like and accepted．"

听力原文：W: Hi, Li Hua. What are you doing this semester？
M: Oh, I'm still learning English. I have to do one more semester before I can start my real studies at the university.
W: You make it sound like prison. How are the classes？
M: They're all right, I guess. I don't know. It seems like they never tell us what we really need to know.
W: What do you mean？
M: Look, when I study mathematics, for instance, we start with definitions. Then we have problems and some equations and processes to learn. You go to class, you keep up, you do the homework, and you know it. You pass exams. But English class is quite different. First of all, they don't want to teach us all the rules. They tell us one rule. Fine. We use that rule, but soon it won't work. It's more complicated or there are a lot of exceptions or something. Sometimes I think the teachers don't know the rules either.
W: But you don't learn a language from the rules, anyway. You have to use it.
M: Yes. That's something else they tell us. But why can't we just go to class, study, and do our homework？ That's what I know how to do.
W: Look at this way, can you learn to play soccer by sitting at home and reading about soccer？
M: No, of course not. Not if you want to play well.
W: But why not？ You could understand the rules of strategy, the duties of each position, and all the special situations. You have to feel the ball, practice kicking it hundreds of times, practice running down the field, moving toward the goal, and centering the ball. No one can learn that by passively studying. Learning a language is more like learning to play soccer than learning mathematics. You have to ask a lot of questions and hear how the answers sound. You have to listen to how people indicate the important part of what they're saying. And then of course endless practice on all the details spelling, "s" endings, articles.., just like practice in simple dribbling and kicking.
M: But if it's a skill like soccer, not a science, why do they teach it in schools and universities, and give you diplomas and grades？
W: That's a good question. It is confusing, but languages are important and people do want to learn them. But the main thing is to practice the language a lot, just like soccer.
M: Maybe I'll join a soccer team and practice English and soccer at the same time. I can talk with people before and after the practice.
W: That's a good idea.
