听力原文:S: I'm sorry. I just don't agree with you at all.
P: Look. Take the example of an international student applying for university admission. If the student has a 500 on the TOEFL or an 80 on the Michigan Test, most admissions officers will accept the applicant. The student with a 499 or 79 won't be considered. The officer won't even look at transcripts.
S: Right. But I think that proves my point, not yours.
P: How?
S: Well, it's the admissions officer who decides how to use tile test. The TOEFL and the Michigan are good English proficiency tests, but that's all they are. And English proficiency is necessary for success in an American university, but so are several other factors, including good academic preparation.
P: Good academic preparation is more important.
S: Maybe. I don't really know. But what I'm trying to explain to you is that admissions officers should use the proficiency test as one of many considerations, and as such, they really shouldn't insist on a rigid cut - off score like 500 or 80.
A: Isn't this the basic disagreement that Paul thinks the tests are bad in themselves, and Sally believes that the tests are good, but that many people don't use them for their intended purpose.
P. I don' t agree with having the tests, Professor Ayers, and that's my position.
S: But Paul, what would you do to evaluate the English proficiency of a student ten thousand miles away without a standardized test?
P: I admit that's a big problem.
S: It sure is.
A: Okay, class, For Wednesday, let's consider the problem of evaluation without standardized tests like the TOEFL, the SAT, GMAT, and GRE. Paul says that there ought to be alternative. Sally doesn't seem to believe that there is an appropriate alternative. Please bring in your ideas and suggestions, and we'll discuss them.

The harvest moon is the full moon on a day nearest the first day of autumn. Full or nearly full, it rises early in the evening for several nights in a row. It brings farmers well-lit evenings to harvest their crops.

Why does the moon look bigger when it is near the horizon? Our brains compare the size of the moon with the size of the objects we see on the horizon. We know that the distant mountains? homes? or skyscrapers are really very large.

Another issue: in a True Mirror you seem to have far less control over the figure in the glass than you do in a normal mirror. If you turn to the right in front of a normal mirror, the image turns with you and ends up facing in the same direction, completing the visual palindrome (回文). In a True Mirror the image faces the other way, as if you were about to begin pacing off for a duel with yourself; and when you take a step, the image steps away from you. In a normal mirror your reflected finger comes out to meet your real one until they touch, like Michelangelo's God and Adam. In a True Mirror the reflected finger comes at you from the other side of the glass, as if pointed by the other hand. Ordinarily, you have no difficulty looking at a normal mirror and guiding your hand to an object reflected in it. Try this with a True Mirror, and your grasp will prove errant. Shaving becomes a blood sport. If all the review mirrors in America's cars were suddenly replaced by True Mirrors, there could be a very special episode of ER (美国电视剧《急诊室》).
In an ordinary mirror your right eye stares at your right eye and your left eye at your left eye--the opposite of the right-left, left-right connection we employ for assessing one another in the wild. The image in a True Mirror (which shows what you look like to others) can come as something of a shock. You tend to look the way you do in photographs, which for many people is also a shock. (This is the flip side (反面) of the start you sometimes get when looking at the reflected image of someone you are accustomed to seeing in person.) A newspaper headline held up to a True Mirror doesn't appear backward--it reads just fine. But your own face may seem oddly asymmetrical. Facial mannerisms nurtured in front of a normal mirror may in a True Mirror be revealed in a different light. "It is a wholly new view for many," the True Mirror's promotional literature concedes, "and not surprisingly, some don't like or feel uncomfortable with the new look."

What Makes Me the Weight I Am?
There"s no easy answer to this question. Your genetic makeup, the physical traits that get passed down to you from your parents, plays a big part in determining your size and weight.____46____ But if your parents are smaller than average, you may want to rethink that professional basketball career!
The same goes for your body type. Have you ever heard someone say a person is "big boned" ?
It"s a way of saying the person has a large frame, or skeleton. Big bones usually weight more than small bones.____47____
Like your height or body type, your genes have a lot to say about what your weight will be.
But that"s only part of the story. Being overweight can run in someone"s family, but it may not be because of their genes.____48____ And even though some kids gain weight more easily than others,when they eat right and exercise, most kids can be a healthy and happy weight that"s right for them.
It"s true——the way you live can change the way you look.
How much you weight is a balance between the calories you eat and the calories you use.
____49____ If you spend your free time watching TV, your body won"t use as many calories as it would if you played basketball, skated, or went for a walk. If you are in balance, your weight will stay right for you as you grow. But if you eat more and exercise less, you may become overweight.
