[00:00.00]CHAPTER ONE [00:-1.00]READING Page two [00:-2.00]MY FAVOURITE SPORT SKIING [00:-3.00]Skiing is my favourite sport, [00:-4.00]even though I have only skied for four days in my whole life! [00:-5.00]Last year my father promised that if my brother did well in his exams, [00:-6.00]he would take us for a special holiday. [00:-7.00]When Victor got straight 'A's, [00:-8.00]Dad said,'How about a weekend visit to the Botanical Gardens?' [00:-9.00]But my mother said,'No,you promised a special holiday. [00:10.00]I think you ought to keep your word.' [00:11.00]And,despite the expense,he did. [00:12.00]Victor's dream was to see some real snow. [00:13.00]So in the Christmas vacation we flew to Seoul, [00:14.00]and then took a shuttle bus to Muju Resort. [00:15.00]As it climbed through the mountains,we saw the snow on the trees. [00:16.00]I was dying to get out and play with it! [00:17.00]At last we reached the resort,and scrambled out of the bus quickly. [00:18.00]No one in my family had ever touched snow before. [00:19.00]We were all like little children: [00:20.00]we picked up,made snowballs,and threw them at each other! [00:21.00]Then we noticed that the tour guide was watching us,with a smile on his face. [00:22.00]'I think we should go and check in at the hotel now,' [00:23.00]my dad said,and so we did. [00:24.00]Our room overlooked one of the ski slopes. [00:25.00]The slopes were floodlit,and we watched people skiing until 10 p.m. [00:26.00]We could not wait to try it ourselves. [00:27.00]The next day we had our first skiing lesson. [00:28.00]We rented our ski suits,boots and skis,and then went outside onto the snow. [00:29.00]Wearing skis for the first time makes you feel very strange. [00:30.00]Suddenly you find you can't even walk. [00:31.00]Our instructor took us onto a gentle slope,and showed us some basic skills. [00:32.00]If you want to go up a hill, [00:33.00]you have to stand sideways,and go up step by step. [00:34.00]If you want to stop,you must point the tips of your skis together. [00:35.00]But the tips mustn't cross,or you will fall. [00:36.00]To be honest,that first lesson was not a great success, [00:37.00]and I spent a lot of time sitting down! [00:38.00]However,the next day I definitely improved. [00:39.00]I only fell over a few times,and I managed to do a few longer runs. [00:40.00]I felt so pleased with myself,and the instructor congratulated me, [00:41.00]so I felt great. [00:42.00]Although it was very cold,I spent most of that holiday skiing. [00:43.00]It was the most wonderful time of my life. [00:44.00]But it was all over too soon. [00:45.00]I have decided to do a part time job this summer, [00:46.00]and perhaps I can earn enough money for another super skiing holiday. [00:47.00]LISTENING SKILLS Page 7 [00:48.00]Understanding numbers [00:49.00]Listen to the speakers on the recording. [00:50.00]Extract the numbers which are needed to complete these tables. [00:51.00]1.The school table tennis competition was again kingly contested, [00:52.00]with over fifty entries. [00:53.00]In the semifinals,Alex beat John in a close match, [00:54.00]winning in two sets by the score of 21:18 and 21:19. [00:55.00]In the other Semifinal [00:56.00]Mark recorded a much easier victory defeating Raymond 21:3,and 21:8. [00:57.00]Mark went on to take the boys title, [00:58.00]beating Alex in the best of three sets [00:59.00]He lost the first set 18:21, [-1:00.00]but fought back to take the next two sets 21:13 and 21:11. [-1:-1.00]2.This table shows some of the developments of the Olympic Games. [-1:-2.00]The first of the modern games was hold in Athens in 1896. [-1:-3.00]Just thirteen countries took part, [-1:-4.00]and there were only nine sports. [-1:-5.00]Although there were three hundred and eleven male competitors, [-1:-6.00]there were no women at all. [-1:-7.00]At the Los Angeles's Games of 1932, [-1:-8.00]thirty-seven countries competed in fifteen different sports. [-1:-9.00]There were 1,281 male athletes,but just 127 women. [-1:10.00]In Helsinki in 1952 the number of countries had risen to 69, [-1:11.00]but there were only seventeen sports. [-1:12.00]Although the number women athletes had climbed to 518, [-1:13.00]they were still after numbered by the male competitors,the numbered 4,407. [-1:14.00]Even in the Barcelona Olympics of 1992, [-1:15.00]in which 168 countries competed in 26 different sports, [-1:16.00]the number of male and female athletes was not nearly equal, [-1:17.00]there were 6,658 men, [-1:18.00]but less than half as many women,who numbered 2,708. [-1:19.00]3.A:I'm just writing a notice about the Club's Table Tennis Tournament. [-1:20.00]Let's see,I reckon down the events,the cost is forty-five yuan per entry. [-1:21.00]What else do I need to put on it? [-1:22.00]B:What's the deadline for entries? [-1:23.00]A:Oh,that's the 7th of May.We must type all the entries by then. [-1:24.00]The matches up to the finals will be played between the 14th of May [-1:25.00]and the 30th of June. [-1:26.00]B:What about the finals? [-1:27.00]A:They'll be played on the 6th of July. [-1:28.00]Shall I put the schedule down? [-1:29.00]B:Yes,you should. [-1:30.00]A:Right.Well,the Women's final will start at about one forty-five. [-1:31.00]and the Men's final will start about two thirty. [-1:32.00]We put that one last because it can take a long time. [-1:33.00]We'll have the boys' and girls' finals earlier, [-1:34.00]at 12:00 noon and one o'clock respectively. [-1:35.00]There,it's that all? [-1:36.00]B:That's good! [-1:37.00]But I suggest you give a full number in case anyone has inquiries [-1:38.00]A:That's a good idea! [-1:39.00]They can phone Maggie Zhu in the office, what's her number? [-1:40.00]B:It's 28862311. [-1:41.00]4.A:Hello,John.How did you get on in the athletic meeting,yesterday? [-1:42.00]B:Very well,thank you. [-1:43.00]A:Don't be shy.Tell me all about your results. [-1:44.00]B:Well,I was first in the 100m,I ran my best time ever 13.89 seconds. [-1:45.00]And I was third in the 200m with a time of 27.37 seconds. [-1:46.00]I didn't do so well in the 400m though. [-1:47.00]I came sixth in one minute three point zero eight seconds [-1:48.00]A:That's really good!Did you take part in any of the field events? [-1:49.00]B:Yes,I won the long jump,with a jump of four point one five metres. [-1:50.00]and I was sixth in the high jump,I only jumped 1.42 metres, [-1:51.00]that was my worst result. [-1:52.00]A:Congratulations!I think you did really well. [-1:53.00]SPEAKING page 13 [-1:54.00]A Saying contracted forms. [-1:55.00]When you have to read a dialogue, [-1:56.00]you must read contracted forms as contracted forms. [-1:57.00]Do not read them as complete words.Do not read I've as I have.

[-2:13.00]PETER:You're right.I'll finish my homework tomorrow. [-2:14.00]We'll watch the game together. [-2:15.00]2.SANDRA:Kate isn't absent,is she? [-2:16.00]She said she'd play in the game today. [-2:17.00]SUSAN:No,she told me that she wouldn't play. [-2:18.00]In fact,she said she couldn't play,because she's injured. [-2:19.00]She's hurt her ankle. [-2:20.00]SANDRA:Oh,no!Then you'll have to play instead.SUSAN:Me? [-2:21.00]But I've never played hockey before. [-2:22.00]SANDRA:Don't worry.You'll soon learn! [-2:23.00]MORE LANGUAGE INPUT(1) [-2:24.00]Reading page 16 [-2:25.00]Faster,higher,stronger [-2:26.00]At the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, [-2:27.00]the number of participant that completed for medals in athletics alone reached 2000. [-2:28.00]This was the largest number ever reordered in Olympic history. [-2:29.00]Athletics usually refers to sports in four areas: [-2:30.00]track,field,road and combined events. [-2:31.00]There are lots of track events at the Olympics. [-2:32.00]They include sprints,middle-distance [-2:33.00]and long-distance running,hurdling,relays,etc. [-2:34.00]Field events,however, are often not so closely linked with speed. [-2:35.00]They occlude long jump triple jump,high jump people, [-2:36.00]pole vault,short-put,discus and javelin,to name just a few. [-2:37.00]The marathons and race walks belong to road events, [-2:38.00]which often test the limits of people's endurance. [-2:39.00]In the combined events [-2:40.00]the athletes are required to complete in a series of track and field events. [-2:41.00]The points are based on their performance in each event, [-2:42.00]and the person with the most points wins. [-2:43.00]Athletics is,in many ways,the best embodiment of the Olympic motto [-2:44.00]'Faster,higher, stronger'. [-2:45.00]The many wonders and achievements in athletics always inspire people [-2:46.00]to pursue the true spirit of sportsmanship.
