听力原文:W: Hi. Phil. can you tell me how it happened?
M: Sure: I was mountain climbing in New Hampshire in 1982. Suddenly the weather became really bad. There was a lot of snow and we couldn't see anything. We got lost. Well, we spent four days on the mountain. The temperature was -20℃. We didn't have any equipment or food.
W: So what happened? I guess someone found you, right?
M: Yes. but we were very sick. I couldn't move my legs because of the cold. months in the hospital. The doctors removed my legs.
W: Right. So you lost your legs, but you want to try your best to stay active.

WB Well, first of all, congratulations on your award. That's no small achievement. Now as for expansion, the main thing you need to think about is what that'll do for you and your staff. I mean—how much do you oversee operations right now?
MB Exactly, that's my main concern. I'm in the restaurant every day, and I oversee practically every detail. I definitely couldn't do that if I opened another restaurant.
WB No, you couldn't, which means you'd have to hire or train somebody you could trust. The main question is, what's the ideal size you can handle, and still maintain your quality.

Speech is the most important means of communication between people. But it is not the only one. Nor is it the oldest. We use facial expressions, gestures, and hand movements to express our feelings and to send signals to other people. Animals use this "body language" a great deal. The sign language used by deaf people is an example of communication without speech, while blind people communicate largely through touch and hearing.
According to the passage, what would happen to us without communication?
A.We should learn everything for ourselves.
B.We would become unable to speak.
C.We couldn't live happily.
D.We might have to do everything by ourselves.

听力原文:M: What was the party like last night, Jane?
W: Really Fantastic l There are some interesting people there, and we have had a good time together. Why couldn't you come?
M: Well, I had to work overtime yesterday. And when I returned home, I had a headache, so I had to go to bed straightly. But I was exhausted, so I just couldn't get to sleep for hours.
W: What a pity. Why don't you take a sleeping pill?
M: To speak my mind, I don't like them. I used to take them after I had spent a long period of time working at night.
W: How many did you use to take?
M: Three every night.
W: Good heavens. Why did you take so many?
M: Because I had great pressure. The doctor said they weren't very strong. Anyway, I used to feel awful the next morning.

W: I couldn't agree more.

M: And they also use clicks as a sort of sonar.
W: I really couldn't understand that part of the lecture. You could?
M: Yes, the dolphins use clicks to identify objects in the water; they can even identify tiny objects more than 100 meters away using these clicks. Scientists believe that a dolphin may even have a sonar-like image in its brain of a distant object so that it can identify the object long before the dolphin can actually see the object.
W: So the dolphins use these clicks mostly to identify objects in the water?
M: I think so, and they have considerably more ability to do this than humans do.
W: It is hard to believe that, in addition to these sonar clicks, dolphins are actually learning some human language.
M: Yes, I believe that the lecture said that some dolphins had already learned around fifty human commands, and that those dolphins were able to understand not only individual words but words clustered together in sentences!
W: Dolphins must certainly be amazing animals to do all of that.
M: I'm sure they are, and we're only just beginning to find out how intelligent they are.

B.From a television program.
