[00:51.90]MODULE 1 Our Body and Healthy Habits

[00:57.58]VOCABULARY AND READING

[01:00.67]2.Read Zhou Kai(1) Answer these questions.

[01:06.32]1.Why is Zhou Kai's mother anxious? 2.What does she think will happen?

[01:15.01]3.What does she ask him to do?

[01:19.75]Zhou Kai(1)

[01:22.82]When Zhou Kai's mother saw him heading towards the front door

[01:27.56]without a jacket on, she eyed him anxiously.

[01:32.86]"Zhou Kai, where are you going?" she asked.

[01:37.59]"To the park. I'm going to play football," said Zhou Kai.

[01:43.34]"But it's raining! You'll catch a bad cold," said his mother.

[01:49.49]"No, I won't. I'll be fine," said Zhou Kai, as he opened the door.

[01:56.84]"Zhou Kai, you'll get ill. You know you will.

[02:00.91]You can at least go and get your jacket."

[02:04.42]"OK, OK." Zhou Kai went and did as he was told.

[02:13.10]3.Read Zhou Kai (2). Answer these questions.

[02:19.22]1 How are passages 1 and 2 connected?

[02:24.27]2 Does Zhou Kai have a healthy lifestyle, in your opinion?

[02:29.77]Write three or four sentences saying why or why not.

[02:35.81]Zhou Kai (2) My mother has always made sure we eat very healthily,

[02:42.97]and fresh fruit and vegetables are a very important part of our diet.

[02:49.06]We live near the sea and we have fish about four times a week.

[02:54.56]We don't eat much fat or sugar.

[02:57.90]A lot of my school friends eat sweets every day

[03:02.04]but I'm lucky because I don't have a sweet tooth —

[03:06.01]I'd rather eat a nice piece of fruit.

[03:09.10]And I'm not too heavy, so I never have to diet, or anything like that.

[03:14.90]I'm quite healthy. I very rarely get colds, although, unusually for me,

[03:21.51]I had a bad cold and a bit of a fever last week.

[03:26.42]But that's because I was stupid enough to play football in the rain.

[03:32.20]I don't often get things like flu either.

[03:35.88]Last winter almost all my classmates got flu — but I didn't.

[03:41.65]I think I don't get these things

[03:44.06]because I take a lot of exercise and am very fit.

[03:49.04]Two years ago I broke my arm playing football.

[03:53.54]The injury was quite painful

[03:55.86]and I couldn't move my arm for a month — I hated that.

[04:01.36]So as you can see from what I've said, I'm a normal kind of person.

[04:07.75]But there's one thing I really love — I'm crazy about football.

[04:12.75]I'm captain of the class team at school

[04:16.20]and I'm also a member of the Senior High team.

[04:20.19]Because of this, I make sure that I have a good diet, and as I've said,

[04:26.03]this isn't a problem because my mother feeds us so well.

[13:12.52]READING AND VOCABULARY

[13:16.00]2.Read the opening paragraghs of two different articles

[13:21.12]and decide what the topic of each article is.

[13:24.93]Choose the topic from this list.

[13:29.59]A Drug Addict and His Story. Dangerous Activities of Teenagers.

[13:37.33]The Dangers of Using Cocaine

[13:42.49]Article 1 My name is Adam Rouse.

[13:46.93]I'm 19 years old and I used to be a drug addict.

[13:51.97]I first started using drugs when I was 15.

[13:56.58]I bought cannabis from a man in the street.

[14:00.21]I continued to buy cannabis from the same man for about six months.

[14:06.17]One day, he offered me some crack cocaine.

[14:11.51]Article 2 Cocaine is a powerfully addictive drug.

[14:18.75]Some drug users inject cocaine, others smoke it.

[14:24.25]Both ways are dangerous.

[14:27.25]Users who inject the drug are also in more danger

[14:32.15]if they share needles with other users.

[14:37.56]4.Read parts 1—6 and decide which article they belong to.

[14:46.33]1.Crack cocaine is the most addictive form of cocaine.

[14:54.02]Users become addicted to crack cocaine

[14:57.54]much more easily if they smoke it.

[15:00.75]Smoking allows cocaine to reach the brain very quickly.

[15:06.42]2.When I went back to the man again, I wanted more crack cocaine.

[15:14.68]But he asked me for a lot of money. I didn't have enough money

[15:19.50]so he didn't give me any drugs. I was in terrible pain.

[15:25.71]3 The next day, I broke into a house

[15:30.87]and stole a television and a video recorder.

[15:35.15]I took them to the drug dealer.

[15:37.90]He told me to take them to a shop in a nearby street.

[15:44.25]The man in the shop gave me some money.

[15:47.29]I took the money to the drug dealer and he gave me some more crack cocaine.

[15:53.65]Using cocaine increases the user's heart rate and blood pressure.

[16:02.01]As a result, cocaine users sometimes have heart attacks.

[16:07.82]Smoking crack cocaine also causes anti-social behaviour.

[16:14.55]5.By this time, I was addicted to crack cocaine.

[16:21.61]If I didn't have any drugs, I was in terrible pain.

[16:26.01]And I had to steal something every day to pay for the drugs.

[16:31.12]One day, the police took me to the police station.

[16:36.38]6.The next day, a doctor came to see me.

[16:42.22]He told me that I could die if I didn't stop taking crack cocaine,

[16:48.56]so I took his advice and stopped immediately.

[16:54.31]Now I work in a centre for drug addicts,

[16:58.00]helping others to stop taking drugs.

[18:37.75]2.Listen and answer the questions. Explain your answers.

[18:44.97]Good evening,and welcome to the show.

[18:47.77]With me in the studio is Professor Marion Smith,

[18:51.45]who is an expert on the connection between crime and drug addiction.

[18:56.11]Good evening, Professor Smith. Good evening.

[18:58.95]First of all,how many people use illegal drugs in Britain?

[19:03.04]Possibly four million people.

[19:04.94]Really? Four million? Yes.

[19:07.92]How many of them break the law in order to pay for their drugs?

[19:11.72]It's possible that a hundred thousand people steal

[19:15.22]in order to pay for their drug addiction

[19:17.30]A hundred thousand?! That's incredible!

[19:20.86]And what kind of crimes do they commit?

[19:23.39]Mainly shoplifting- in other words, stealing from shops

[19:27.59]and burglary, stealing from houses I see.

[19:31.30]And there's another problem.

[19:33.16]Drug users get into trouble with the police for other reasons as well.

[19:37.74]What kind of reasons?

[19:40.02]Well,you often see drug users in public places

[19:44.04]shopping centres, railway stations, for example

[19:47.77]and some of them behave so badly that

[19:49.84]members of the public call the police.

[19:52.81]Some people feel so nervous when they see drug users

[19:55.97]that they call the police anyway. This is a really bad problem,isn't it?

[20:00.62]Absolutely,but the good news is that drug users

[20:04.03]who go to treatment centres usually stop their criminal activities.

[20:08.60]How many addicts go to treatment centres?

[20:11.64]Last year,about 30,000 people went to drug treatment centres.

[20:16.04]Thirty thousand? That's amazing.

[20:18.75]Yes,there are such a lot of people that there isn't time to help them all.

[20:22.97]What kind of people are they?

[20:25.01]Well,the majority are young people in their twenties.

[20:28.56]And about 75 percent of the young people are men.

[20:32.36]And do all these people live in cities?

[20:34.70]Oh no.The ratio of drug users in society

[20:38.25]is the same in cities and in the countryside.

[20:41.43]But they all have something in common. What's that?

[20:44.86]Drug users are more likely to get into trouble at school.

[20:48.40]Professor Marion Smith,thank you very much. Thank you.

[20:54.84]3.Listen again and complete these sentences.

[24:24.64]I think it would be good if they banned smoking in restaurants

[24:27.73]and cafes as well. Absolutely!That would be an excellent idea.

[24:32.86]It isn't very nice if someone is smoking at the next table.

[24:36.36]I totally agree with you. It's horrible!

[24:39.29]In fact,I think it would be a good idea to ban smoking in parks as well.

[24:44.36]Well,I'm not sure about that.It isn't so bad when people smoke in parks.

[24:49.47]No,you're wrong.On a bus or in a park- it's all the same.

[24:53.33]I'm not sure I agree with that.

[24:55.40]Smoking in a park doesn't affect other people in the same way.

[24:59.25]I'm sorry.I think it does.

[25:01.50]In fact,I think smoking should be banned in people's homes as well.

[25:06.11]You can't be serious!

[25:38.47]Three Great Austrian Composers

[25:43.09]Three Great Composers of the Eighteenth Century

[25:48.59]Three Great Child Composers

[25:54.29]Joseph Haydn (1732 -1809) was an Austrian composer

[26:00.38]and is known as "the father of the symphony" .

[26:04.44]Other composers had written symphonies before Haydn,

[26:08.01]but he changed the symphony into a long piece for a large orchestra.

[26:13.68]He was born in a village in Austria,

[26:13.67]He was born in a village in Austria, the son of a peasant.

[26:18.32]He had a beautiful singing voice. After studying music in Vienna,

[26:24.12]Haydn went to work at the court of a prince in eastern Austria,

[26:28.39]where he became director of music. Having worked there for 30 years,

[26:34.31]Haydn moved to London, where he was very successful.

[26:39.90]Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 —1791) was a composer,

[26:47.00]possibly the greatest musical genius of all time.

[26:51.33]He only lived 35 years and he composed more than 600 pieces of music.

[26:58.59]Mozart was born in Salzburg, Austria.

[27:02.41]His father Leopold was a musician and orchestra conductor.

[27:07.36]Wolfgang had musical talent from a very early age.

[27:12.02]He learned to play the harpsichord when he was four,

[27:15.18]he started composing music when he was five, and when he was six,

[27:19.84]he played the harpsichord in a concert for the Empress of Austria.

[27:25.43]By the time he was 14, Mozart had composed many pieces for the harpsichord,

[27:30.96]piano and violin, as well as for orchestras.

[27:35.66]While he was still a teenager, Mozart was already a big star

[27:40.36]and toured Europe giving concerts.

[27:43.91]Haydn met Mozart in 1781 and was very impressed with him.

[27:49.59]"He is the greatest composer the world has known," he said.

[27:54.79]The two were friends until Mozart's death in 1791.

[27:59.86]Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 —1827) was born in Bonn, Germany.

[28:07.86]He showed musical talent when he was very young,

[28:11.11]and learned to play the violin and piano from his father, who was a singer.

[28:16.92]Mozart met Beethoven and was impressed by him.

[28:21.05]"He will give something wonderful to the world," he said.

[28:25.68]Beethoven met Haydn in 1791, but was not impressed by the older man.

[28:32.61]After they had known each other for many years,Beethoven said

[28:36.84]"He is a good composer, but he has taught me nothing."

[28:41.63]However,it was Haydn who encouraged Beethoven to move to Vienna.

[28:46.83]Beethoven became very popular in the Austrian capital

[28:50.97]and stayed there for the rest of his life.

[28:54.27]As he grew older, he began to go deaf.

[28:57.86]He became completely deaf during the last years of his life,

[29:01.67]but he continued composing.

[37:33.02]MODULE 4 Fine Arts-Western, Chinese and Pop Arts

[37:40.29]READING AND VOCABULARY

[37:43.20]2.Read passages A-F Then:

[37:47.45]1.Match paintings1-4 with descriptions in paragraphs A-D

[37:54.84]2.Say which paintings are mentioned in paragraphs E and F.

[38:03.09]A This is a painting by the Spanish artist,

[38:08.13]Pablo Picasso,

[38:10.28]considered to be the greatest western artist of the twentieth century.

[38:15.61]Picasso and another painter,George Braque, started Cubism,

[38:21.50]one of the most important of all modern art movements.

[38:26.23]Cubist artists painted objects and people,

[38:30.18]with different aspects of the object

[38:32.72]or person showing at the same time.

[38:37.15]B This painting

[38:39.70]by contemporary American artist Roy Lichtenstein (1923 — 1997)

[38:48.70]is a world famous example of pop art.

[38:52.81]Pop art (from the word "popular") was an important modern art movement

[38:58.90]that aimed to show ordinary twentieth- century city life.

[39:03.64]For example,it shows things such as soup cans and advertisements.

[39:10.88]c Qi Baishi(1863 - 1957),one of China's greatest painters,

[39:22.51]followed the traditional Chinese style of painting.

[39:27.17]Chinese painting is known for its brush drawings in black inks

[39:32.75]and natural colours.

[39:34.81]Qi Baishi observed the world of nature very carefully,

[39:40.02]and his paintings are special because of this.

[39:45.90]D Xu Beihong (1895 - 1953)

[39:53.74]was one of China's best-known twentieth -century artists.

[39:58.59]Like Qi Baishi, Xu painted in the traditional Chinese style.

[40:04.86]Both painters have a beautiful brush line.

[40:08.07]Xu Beihong believed that artists should show reality,but not just imitate it.

[40:15.02]Instead, a picture should try to show the "life" of its subject.

[40:21.06]He is most famous for his lively paintings of horses.

[40:27.29]E I'm studying art at school, and I enjoy it a lot,

[40:33.38]although I can get tired of looking at pictures all the time.

[40:38.79]I'm crazy about the paintings of Qi Baishi,

[40:42.56]and this delightful picture of the little shrimps

[40:46.33]is such a lovely example of his work.

[40:50.13]But I can't stand that picture of a golden-haired girl.

[40:55.29]I think it's stupid.

[40:59.86]F My parents are fond of going to art galleries

[41:06.21]and often take me with them, so I've developed an interest in art.

[41:10.64]I must say, I love that picture of the six horses. They look so alive.

[41:17.54]It's by a Chinese artist, isn't it? I can tell by the style.

[41:23.97]I think the painting of the young girl is probably by Picasso. I really like him.

[41:31.00]I think he's an extraordinary artist.
