Telephone tips
If the phone rings and someone speaks in English, don't be afraid to answer it! The fear of talking on the phone in a second language will disappear if you practice often．Here are a few tips for helping you improve your ability to answer a call in English．
1．________
Listening to someone speaking in a second language over the telephone can be very challenging because you cannot see the person you are trying to hear．However, it may be even more difficult for the person you are talking with to understand you．You may not realize that your pronunciation isn't clear because your teacher and fellow students know and understand you．Pay special attention to your weak areas of your pronunciation when you are on the phone．
2．________
Don't pretend to understand everything you hear over the telephone．Even native speakers ask each other to repeat and confirm information from time to time．This is especially important if you are taking a message for someone else．Learn the appropriate expressions that English speakers use when they don't hear something properly．Don't be afraid to remind the person to slow down more than once．Keep your telephone in an area that is away from other noise distractions such as a radio or television．
3．________．
Ask another student to practice talking on the phone with you．You might choose one night a week and take turns phoning each other at a certain time．Try to talk for at least fifteen minutes．You can talk socially, or role play different scenarios in a business environment．The most important thing about practicing telephone English is that you are not able to see each other's mouths．
4．________．
There are many ways to get free telephone English practice．After business hours, you can call and listen to recorded messages．Write down what you hear the first time, and then call back and check if your notes are accurate．Make sure you have a pen handy so that you can repeat the information and check your comprehension．
5．________．
The way that you speak to your best friend on the phone is very different from the way you should speak to someone in a business setting．Many speakers make the mistake of being too direct on the telephone．It is possible that the person on the other line will think that you are being rude on purpose if you don't use formal language in certain situations．Sometimes just one word such as could or may is necessary in order to sound polite．Take the time to learn how to answer the phone and say goodbye in a polite manner, as well as all the various ways one can start and end a conversation casually．
Listening to someone on the telephone is like listening to a taped recording in class．The only difference is that you have to talk back! Follow the tips above and remember that practice makes perfect!
Once upon a time there was a great man who married the woman of his dreams. With their love, they created a little girl. She was a bright and cheerful little girl and the great man loved her very much.
When the little girl was growing up, the great man would hug her and tell her, “ I love you, little girl.” The little girl would shout and say, “ I’m not a little girls anymore.” Then the man would laugh and say, “ But to me, you’ll always be my little girl.”
The little girl who- was- not- little- anymore left her home and went into the world. As she learned more about herself, she learned more about the man. She saw that he truly was great and strong, for now she recognized his strengths. One of his strengths was his ability to express his love to his family. It didn’t matter where she went in the world, the man would call her and say, “ I love you, little girl.”
The day came when the little girl who-was- not- little-anymore received a phone call. The great man was damaged. He had had a stroke(中风 ). He couldn’t talk anymore and they weren’t sure that he could understand the words spoken to him.
And so she went to the side of the great man. When she walked into the room and saw him, he looked small and not strong at all. He looked at her and tried to speak, but he could not.
The little girl did the only thing she could do. She climbed up on the bed next to the great man. Tears ran from both of their eyes and she drew her arms around the useless shoulders of her father.
Her head on his chest, she thought of many things. She remembered the wonderful times together and how she has always felt protected. And then she heard from within the man, the beat of his heart. The heart where the musid and the words had always lived. The heart beat on, steadily unconcerned about damage to the rest of the body. And while she rested there, the magic happened. She heard what she needed to hear.
His hear beat out the words that his mouth could no longer say…
I love you
I love you
I love you
Little girl
Little girl
Little girl
And she was comforted.

The following except ____ can be inferred as the consequences of the father’s stoke.

C. that his arms could no longer function properly D. the beat of his heart
The girl felt _____ when she returned home and saw her father in bed.
A. she was protected just as before B. she could never have left home
C. the difficulty of being old and sick D. the need to show him her love

How can you hear your friends’ voices when they are far away and you can’t make a long—distance call? Besides the web camera system with your computer, we have a new high-tech way to solve the problem and ease your pain of missing them.
The Japanese company Combiwith created a system—“talking picture”. It makes people in pictures speak!
The “talking picture” has a special pen. It is actually a pen-shaped scanner. It can scan information in special—made pictures. A connected player will then play the information out loud.
First, you need to take a picture and record what you want to say with the company. The company will then make special barcodes(条形码) onto your picture(you can’t see those codes). Those codes are your voice and your words. When you hold up the pen to scan your picture with barcodes, a player connected to the pen will start to play. It plays things you’ve recorded. That way the invention makes the “you” in the picture speak!
Do you want your friends and families talking out of pictures? Have them make pictures like that, and you can hear them whenever you want, only with the “talking picture” system. The system can play messages for up to 12 minutes.
“The pictures would be useful for those who hope to hear the voice of someone living far away,” said Mayumi Fuji, a spokeswoman for the company. “Grandparents, for example, longing to know about their grandchildren, would be happy to hear their voice when they see the picture,” Fuji said.
But it is troublesome to go to the company for taking a special picture first. And, it is much more expensive than using a telephone. The photo with barcodes costs between 17,040 and 17,990 yen(日元)(160 and 169 dollars). The larger picture you want, the more you pay.
Now, just raise a finger, lonely people can have their loved ones speak out of pictures. But, whether the “talking picture” is practical or not, let’s wait and see.
【小题1】What does “talking pictures” mean according to this article?
| A．The picture can play what’s been recorded as if the person in the picture “talks”. |
| B．You can have a talk with the person in the picture whenever you want to. |
| C．The picture can tell you wonderful stories to ease your pain. |
| D．The picture can tell what’s on your mind when you are looking at it. |
| A．take a picture and record what you want to say with the company |
| B．make special barcodes onto your picture |
| C．a pen—shaped scanner to go with the picture |
| D．All of the above |
| A．The talking picture system can play messages for 12 minutes at most. |
| B．It will cost you more to take a larger talking picture. |
| C．It might take a lot of trouble to make a talking picture. |
| D．You can make a talking picture by just raising a finger. |
| A．Optimistic. | B．Uncertain. | C．Positive. | D．Pessimistic. |
