Task 1:Santa's home town in danger Script

Weather experts may have found a new problem caused by global warming, one which many people will pay attention to: There are signs that Santa's home in the North may be in trouble because of warmer temperatures.

The Finnish town of Rovaniemi on the Arctic Circle, which many Europeans say is the home of Santa Claus, has had its warmest winter in 40 years.

As a result, there has been much less snow than usual—meaning no snowmen, no snowballs, and possibly not enough snow for Santa to ride his sleigh on.

More important for local residents, it may mean fewer tourists, as well. Santa's wintry home town normally attracts thousands of visitors each year, and millions of dollars.

Anne Pelttari-Bergman, the town's tourist director, worries that the town could be in trouble if snow levels do not return to normal.

She explains: \is really important for us, of course, for Santa Claus, for Christmas tourism, and also for our winter tourism because winter is our best season. It is really important for us.\

Weather experts and town residents are hoping this warm winter is an one-time thing. Few people can imagine a holiday when even Santa does not have a white Christmas. Keys: (1)signs

(2)warmer temperatures (3)warmest (4)snow (5)attracts (6)trouble (7)normal (8)season (9)one-time (10)white

VI. Further Listening and Speaking Listening Task:

Task1: Problems with our educational system Script:

To Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other people's time.

Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology and maybe an explanation.

People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay.

Of course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on time. At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time.

But they usually don't try that at work.American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others.

When people plan an event, they often set the time days or weeks in advance. Once the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to change it.
