Listening Strategy
Identifying Numbers
Numbers appear very often in every kind of listening material. The ability to catch the exact numbers spoken in English is an important but difficult skill for a Chinese learner. A good way is to practice over and over again the pronunciation of the numbers, particularly the different ways to say thirteen and thirty, fourteen and forty, etc. It also helps to practice writing down the numbers you hear quickly in numerical forms, without translating them into Chinese. You're going to hear a passage about Michael Jordan, a retired American professional basketball player.
Listen carefully and fill in the blanks with the missing numbers.
Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time. He was born on Feb.17, 1963, in Brooklyn, New York. He is 1.98 meters tall and weighs 216 pounds. Jordan joined the Chicago Bulls team for the 1984 season. In the 1986 season he shot 3041 points, the third highest score ever. He was named NBA Slam Dunk Champion（扣篮冠军）in 1987 and won the Most Valuable Player Award in 1988, an honor repeated four times in the next ten years to 1998. Jordan guided his team to win six NBA championships during the 1990s, scoring 45 points during the sixth and last game of the 1998 NBA finals. In 1999, he was named the greatest North American athlete of the 20th century. Jordan left the NBA at the beginning of the 1993-1994 NBA season to pursue a career in baseball. Since his baseball game wasn't quite as good as his basketball games, he finally gave it up to rejoin the Bulls in 1995. Yet, after playing for five more years, he once again announced his retirement in 1999. But he returned for two more NBA games in 2001 as a member of the Washington Wizards.

Listening Tasks A Conversation
Why Don't You Join Me at the Gym Sometime?
Exercise 1
Listen to the conversation and choose the right answers to the questions you hear.
Peter:
Hi Laura. Where are you heading with that big bag?
Laura:
Hi, Peter. I'm off to the gym. I've got to stay in shape, you know. I try to go three times a week, but I'm busy so I can't always make it.
Peter:
I know more women who work out than men. What's the main reason you work out?
For your health, or to look good?
Laura:
To be honest, for both. With women, good looks are always a very important consideration. Peter:
If they were honest, most men who work out would admit that they also do it to look better, and not merely for health reasons.
Laura:
How about you?
Do you get any regular exercise?
Peter:
I do a lot of walking, for exercise and enjoyment sometimes ten to twenty kilometers at a time but I never go to the gym like you do.
Laura:
Well, walking is good exercise. How about sports?
Peter:
Not since my school days. I used to love playing baseball, but it's impossible to get enough people together for a game now. Mostly I just watch sports on TV.
Laura:
I play tennis fairly regularly with my friends, and sometimes go swimming and cycling by myself.
Peter:
Oh, I forgot about that. I go cycling sometimes too. And I often go swimming on vacation, but only recreational swimming.
Laura:
Why don't you join me at the gym sometime?
I can get you a guest pass. Peter:
Well, maybe someday, but I'm pretty lazy about things like that. Questions
1. What do you know about Peter?
2. Where might the two speakers be having this conversation?
Speaking Tasks Pair Work

That's wonderful. I'd always wanted to work out in the new gym. Thank you very much. Conversation 2

Hi, Xiao Wang. Fancy meeting you here!
How are you doing?

Can't complain. I'm busy with my experiments in the lab. But after work I often play some sports．
A:
Like what?
B:
Like swimming, running and sometimes tennis.
A:
Tennis?
That's my favorite game. Say, what're you doing this weekend?

Nothing particular. I guess I'll probably just work in the lab. A:
Come on. You need to relax. What about a game of tennis?
B:
OK.
Conversation 3
A:
Are you doing anything special tomorrow, Bob?
B:
Not really. Why do you ask?

Some of us are going motorcycling. Would you like to join us?

Motorcycling?
I've never done that. Isn't it a bit dangerous?
A:
Maybe, but it's really exciting.
B:
I enjoy jogging. It's more relaxing.
A:
That's a good form of exercise. It can help you stay in shape. B:
Yes, it's also safer.

Listening Strategy
Listening "Between the Lines"
People do not always say directly what they mean. Very often, we have to listen "between the lines". The English language offers many ways for people to imply, rather than directly state, their meaning. To find out what a speaker really means, we can rely on such things as the context, the meaning of an idiom, and the intonation used. For example, if someone says "I have an essay to write" in answer to an invitation to go somewhere, we can infer from the context that he cannot accept the invitation. And if someone says "Andrew passed with flying colors" in reply to an inquiry about how Andrew did on a test, we can infer from the meaning of the idiom "to pass with flying colors" that Andrew did very well on the test. Often, intonation also helps to reveal the real meaning of a message. For example, "He is very clever" said with an ironic tone means just the opposite. You are going to hear eight short conversations between two speakers.
Listen carefully and write down "Yes" or "No" to each of the following questions. 1. M:
Have you ever been to that big restaurant opposite the school gate?
W:
Yes, many times.
Whenever my friends come to visit me, I'll take them there to eat. 2. W:
Is there something wrong, sir?
M:
My wife and I have been kept waiting for nearly an hour for our meal. 3. W:
Where is the cake I made this morning?
M:
We ate it, mom. Can you make another one for us?
4. W:
I hear you like chicken very much.
M:
Next to beef.
5. M:
Have you tried this wine before?
W:
No, never. It's my first time, but it's really to my taste. 6. W:
John, do you want a soda?
M:
Soda?
I think it tastes like medicine. 7. W:
Why, the fish is left almost untouched. M:
Well, it would be good if it were less salty. 8. M:
Hi, Sue, would you like to eat out tonight?
W:
Oh, I'd really like to, but my sister may come to visit me this evening..

Unit 2 Part B] Listening Tasks A Conversation
What About Dining Out?
Exercise 1
Listen to the conversation and complete the following sentences. Peter:
Hi, Kate.
Kate:
Hi, Peter. How have you been?
Peter:
Oh, OK, I guess. And you?
Kate:
Not too bad. We haven't seen each other for a while, have we?
Peter:
No, we haven't. So that makes me ask. Do you have any plan for this Saturday?
Kate:
No, not yet, I don't think so. Why?
Peter:
What do you think about getting together and going out to dinner this weekend?
Kate:
That would be great. Do you have any particular place in mind?
Peter:
Well, I think I'd like to eat something that's not too heavy. I've been eating a little too much lately.
Kate:
Me too.
Peter:
I love Italian food, but maybe we should skip that this time. They always seem to serve so much food in Italian restaurants, and you end up eating more than you wanted to.
Kate:
Chinese food would be good.
Peter:
Yes, or maybe some Japanese sushi. That style uses a lot of natural flavors, and not much oil or cream or heavy sauces.
Kate:
Yes, either of those choices would be good. Let's just meet on Saturday night, and decide then where to eat.
Peter:
That's fine by me.
