D.How different Western and Eastern art forms are. Passage Two
听力原文: When you want to know more about someone you often ask "What do you do?" This means "What is your job?" It is a common question, and we do not think there is anything strange about it. But it is possible that in the future we will ask a different question. We might ask, "What do you play?."
Computers and such things are making jobs more automatic and less demanding. Scientists tell us that one day very few people will have to work. Our society will be run by computers. And so we will all have a great deal of free time. And then games will be more important than jobs.
Today games and play are a very important part of life. Today people are divided into social classes because of the type of work they do. To morrow they may be divided because of the types of games they play.
In the future, we may have "fun specialists", just as we now have specialists in different types of work. It would be their job to show us how to get the most fun and enjoyment out of our spare time. And our society may be made up of sub-groups, such as surfers, skydivers, joggers, skiers, etc Many of these sub-groups may rely on technology to provide the equipment fro their games.

Hair Detectives
Scientists have found a way to use hair to figure out where a person is from and where that person has been. The finding could help solve crimes, among other useful applications.
Water is central to the new technique. Our bodies break water down into its parts: hydrogen and oxygen. Atoms of these two elements end up in our tissues and hair.
But not all water is the same. Hydrogen and oxygen atoms can vary in how much they weigh. Different forms of a single element are called isotopes. And depending on where you live, tap water contains unique proportions of the heavier and lighter isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen.
Might hair record these watery quirks? That's what James R. Ehleringer, an environmental scientist at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, wondered.
To find out, he and his colleagues collected hair from barbers and hair stylists in 65 cities in 18 states across the United States. The researchers assumed that the hair they collected came from people who lived in the area.
Even though people drink a lot of bottled water these days, the scientists found that hair overwhelmingly reflected the concentrations of hydrogen and oxygen isotopes in local tap water. That's probably because people usually cook their food in the local water. What's more, most of the other liquids people drink including milk and soft drinks contain large amounts of water that also come from sources within their region.
Scientists already knew how the composition of water varies throughout the country. Ehleringer and colleagues combined that information with their results to predict the composition of hair in people from different regions. One hair sample used in Ehleringer's study came from a man who had recently moved from Beijing, China, to Salt Lake City, As his hair grew, it reflected his change in location.
The new technique can't point to exactly where a person is from, because similar types of water appear in different regions that span a broad area. But authorities can now use the information to analyze hair samples from criminals or crime victims and narrow their search for clues.
