听力原文: In America, self-improvement is a national pastime. Every year, more and more Americans spend their leisure time trying to improve themselves one way or another.
One popular form. of self-improvement is the search for physical fitness. Thousands of Americans who never exercised are now out on the streets jogging in fashionable running suits and expensive gym shoes. They boast of how many miles they nm each day and of how many pounds they lose each week. Others are turning to swimming, tennis, dance and the martial arts to improve their physical fitness.
Instead of running around the park in the morning or evening, other Americans are studying yoga or meditating quietly in their homes. They are seeking to improve themselves by finding peace and quiet.
Adult education is another form. of self-improvement. After a hard day's work, many Americans take evening courses at a kraal high school or a community college. There they can study a variety of subjects. Often these people am preparing to return to the job market or trying to qualify themselves for better jobs. For example, a mother busy raising her children might attend a night school to learn secretarial skills. A secretary might return to study accounting. Some retired people may go back for the education they missed at an earlier age.

Edward rose early on the New-year morning.He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family.Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet.
When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars .
His face lighted up as he took them.He had wished for a long time to buy some petty books that he had seen at the bookstore.
He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books.As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family.
“I wish you a happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was happily passing on.The man shook his head.
“You are not from this country? ” said Edward.The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language.But he pointed to his mouth, and to the children shaking with cold, as if (好像)to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time”
Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble.He took out his dollars, and gave one to the man and the other to his wife.
They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time.”
When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought.He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up.
“I have bought no books,” said he, “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.”
“My dear boy,” said his father, “Here are some books, more as a reward for your goodness of heart than as a New-Year gift”.
“I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family.It was nice for a little boy to do so.Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year.”

听力原文:M: Have you heard that in another few years you may be able to buy a car that changes colors every day to match the outfit you are wearing?
W: Oh, please be serious! I suppose they will change shapes as well. If you want a big car to take all your friends camping, I suppose you'll just be able to snap your fingers and make it happen. Or if you want a sporty two-seater, you could just tell the car what you wanted, and it would do the rest. Is that how it will work?
M: No, I am serious. They have found a way to alter the surface of metals so that they can reflect different colors just by passing a small amount of electricity over them.
W: Oh, I see. So anything that touches the outside of the car will get a shock. That sounds lovely.
M: It's only a tiny amount of electricity. It wouldn't be enough to shock anybody.
W: Well, it sounds pretty difficult to believe.
M: Yes, it's quite amazing. The important thing you have to remember is that the color of an object is really just an illusion created by the way light bounces off its surface. Engineers have been able to produce a car that changes colors at the touch of a button by slightly rearranging the position of the particles on the surface of the metal.
W: It sounds so amazing. But I guess it could be possible.
M: It is possible today. The only problem is that it is very expensive. To produce a car with a surface that changed colors would cost almost twice as much as what a regular car costs. For that much money you could just by the car and have it repainted twenty times, so it's not very practical yet.
W: Yes, but in other ways it could be more practical. If you took your car to be painted twenty times, it would use quite a bit of polluting chemicals, and it would take a long time.
M: You're right there, but how many people really get their car repainted that many time?
W: Hmm, I suppose you're right, but I sure would love to have my car match my outfit every day.
