I found in my baby' s behaviour a metaphor (暗喻) for the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools. We find that our students don' t read , that they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have reached a conclusion:let them watch it. If television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight it？ Let them watch it all they want!

Then there was Tom who was always regarded as "average. " However, he set his goals high, and then found a way to achieve his goal. Today he owns a million-dollar company.
Researchers have found that school performance is little related to job competence. Qualities like "steady and dependable" and "practical and organized" are more important.
"You don't need talent to succeed" , insist some experts. "All you need is a big pot of glue (胶水). You put some on your chair, you sit down, and you stick to every project until you've done the best you can do. "Average achievers stay glued to their chairs and postpone pleasure so they can receive future benefits. Many fast-trackers, on the other hand, expect too much too soon.

听力原文：W: Ah, come in, Mr. Parrot. Please sit down.
M: Thank you. A friend of mine told me the new bank manager was a worn... I mean, a lady, but I didn't expect you to be so young.
W: Well, never mind that, Mr. Parrott. What can I do for you？
M: Well, this friend told me that you lent him some money.
W: I don't think I've lent any money to a friend of yours, Mr. Parrott. The bank may have done that.
M: Yes, well, I wondered if I could borrow some money, too.
W: I see. You have an account with us, I suppose. Ah, yes, here's your file. Er, I'm afraid you're overdrawn, Mr. Parrott. How about a hundred pounds, as a matter of fact.
M: Really？ As much as that？ I didn't know.
W: And how much money would you like to borrow from us？
M: Fifteen thousand pounds.
W: That's rather a large sum of money. Can you offer us security？ Do you own the house where you live, for example？
M: Oh, yes. I own quite a lot of shares, too. A friend of ours looks after them.
W: A friend of yours？
M: well, a friend of my father's, actually. But they all belong to me. My father gave them to me after I got married last year. He's quite a rich man, you see.
W: He must be. Then why don't you ask him to lend you the money？
M: I don't like borrowing money from him. He wants me to be in- dependent from now on.

M: Well, no. I want to buy a weekend cottage, actually.
W: A cottage？ I'm sorry, Mr. Parrott, I don't think we can help you.

SECTION B INTERVIEW

Now listen to the interview.
听力原文：Headmaster: Good morning, Mr Harris. Do sit down. I under- stand you' d like to have a word with me about your son William.
Mr Harris: Yes, that's right, Headmaster. I hope I should see you as soon as possible before William does anything he'll regret.
Headmaster: Regret？ Mr Harris？
Mr Harris: Well, you see, he's set his heart on becoming an artist. My wife and I think he ought to take up something more secure. I mean even if he went to art school, there would be no guarantee he could get a good job afterwards.
Headmaster: He could probably teach, Mr Harris.
Mr Harris: He wouldn't like that. He says he wouldn't be a teacher if it were the last job on earth. Oh, ha, beg your pardon. Headmaster! didn't mean……
Headmaster: Not at all, Mr Harris. I wouldn't have been a teacher myself if I'd had my way. I'd have been an actor if my parents had let me. So I have some sympathy with William's problems. Now, let's see, if he wants to be an artist, he'll have to decide what sort of artist he wants to be.
Mr Harris: I don't quite follow you, Headmaster.
Headmaster: Well, what I mean is if he wanted to be a commercial artist - graphics, cartoons, that sort of thing he might do very well if he took an art course at a technical college. And besides, the entry qualifications wouldn't be so stiff. On the other hand, if he wants to go to one of the major art schools, you'd better not raise his hopes too high. There's a good deal of competition to get accepted. And he'd have to have at least three O levels and two A's at good grades before he'd even be considered. Oh, and there is another thing, he'd have to do a year's foundation course first, probably at another college. He'd get a grant of course, provided he'd got the right O's and A's.
Mr Harris: But Art. Headmaster, it's so chancy, though he went so set on it.
Headmaster: I don't think you should stand in his way. Mr Harris. If I were you, I'd let him decide for himself. You'd better accept the fact that nowa- days young people don't worry about security the way we did when we were young.
Mr Harris: Well, I must admit my wife and I would have felt much happier if he'd chosen to do something else. Perhaps it's still not too late for him to change his mind. You know, I could get him a good job with my own firm if he had a science degree. Headmaster: From what I know of him. Mr Harris, I don't think he's the sort of boy to change his mind, not in a hurry, at any rate. In any case, I think you ought to let him decide.
Mr Harris: But an artist, Headmaster, what's he going to live on？
Headmaster: Making a career as an artist isn't easy, of course. It would be a good idea if you had a talk with our Art Master Mr Simms. He can tell you more about the possibilities. I know he thinks very highly of William's work, though you'd better not tell William that I've said so.
Mr Harris: I suppose I shouldn't worry so much, Headmaster. But I can't say I like the idea - painting pictures and that, it... it doesn't seem like real work to me.
Headmaster: On second thought, I think the best thing would be for me to have a word with Mr Simms first and find out what he thinks of Willims chances of being accepted at art school.
Mr Harris: Thank you very much for your advice, Headmaster. I'd be grateful if you let me know what Mr Simms says.

M: Well, urn, it'd be great to get away, but I've never done it before.
W: None of the others have either except for me. I went once last fall. But there'll be an instructor in each canoe the first day.
M: I don't know.
W: Oh, come on. This is our last chance to take a break before finals. The scenery is beautiful, and if it gets too hot we can dive in whenever we feel like it. The river's really calm this time of the year, no rapids to deal with.
M: That's a relief. What would I have to bring？
W: Let's see. Tom's bringing food for the Friday night cookout for everyone. And the people who run the trip have tents set up and they supply food and drinks for all day Saturday. On the way back Sunday morning we'll stop somewhere for breakfast. So, [20] you have to bring a bathing suit and a sleeping bag.
M: [21] Well, I do love camping and sleeping out. Where is this place？
W: Well, it's about an hour and a half to the place where we meet the trip leaders. We leave our car there and they drive us and the canoes upriver to the place where we start canoeing.
M: And who's driving us to the meeting place？
W: Well, I was hoping we could take your car. Mine's in the shop again.
M: Oh, I see. It's not me you want; it's my car.
W: Don't be silly. So what would you say？
M: Oh, why not!
W: [22] Great! I'll give you a call when I find out when everyone wants to leave on Friday.
(23)
A．To convince him to go on a canoe trip.
B．To invite him to a cookout.
C．To ask if she can borrow his car.
D．To tell him about a trip she took.
