[02:52.28]Would you report it to the police? How would you describe the incident?
[02:58.81]Let's see how these boys and girls do it.
[03:03.54]Officer:Now,kids.Tell me about the stores you've been to this afternoon.
[03:09.31]Xiaohong:We first stopped at a kiosk which makes great drinks and got some juice each.
[03:15.87]And then...
[03:19.21]Louise:Then we went into Westco Jeans.After that,I suppose we went into Jeanswest.
[03:26.08]LiMeng:After looking at the jeans,we walked up the street and went into OPSM.
[03:32.32]Xiaohong:Wait.Between the jeans stores,we also visited a shoe store.
[03:38.20]Louise:Then at OPSM I found my purse gone.
[03:43.24]Officer:OK.Do you remember what was inside your purse?
[03:48.39]Louise:I had my strdent ID card,my bank card,
[03:52.83]my bus ticket and $100 which I just withdrew2 from an ATM this afternoon.
[03:59.99]Xiaohong:Just a minute.I recall3 you trying on a pair of jeans.
[04:05.45]You dropped your keys on the floor.Did you drop your purse as well?
[04:11.09]12.Listen and read.
[04:16.65]Big and little sales
[04:21.09]Every year,shop owners,supermarket managers
[04:26.84]and whole sale and retail4 businesspeople offer several big sales
[04:33.08]to their customers in order to sell more goods.
[04:38.36]The sales may be during holidays,such as New Year's Day,
[04:44.11]Easter,Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.
[04:48.94]The sales can also be a spring sale,summer sale,winter sale,
[04:57.69]back-to-school sale,Valentine's Day sale,Mother's Day sale,clearance sale,
[05:07.15]closing sale,moving sale,men's sale,women's sale,children's sale and so on.
[05:15.01]The sales offer various products,from drinks to food,clothing to bedding,
[05:21.96]stationery to kitchenware,dairy products to accessories
[05:28.02]and electrical appliances5 to paintings and still more.
[05:33.79]At the time of the sales or during sales seasons,
[05:39.36]people flock6 to the shopping centres
[05:43.90]and stand in long queues and hope to get the best buy.
[05:49.07]It really is the time to see many people consume7 and enhance8 their purchasing power.
[05:56.02]Besides the store sales,there are other kinds of sales,yard sales, [06:03.89]family moving sales,porch sales,corridor sales and many others.
[06:10.96]Some people collect their family's unwanted things and put them in their yard
[06:17.63]and sell those things to their neighbours or visitors who want to buy them.
[06:23.40]Usually at this kind of sale,you can get a very good offer.
[06:28.86]The purpose of these sales is not oly to make money,
[06:33.51]but also to associate with friends,exchange ideas,make friends,
[06:40.48]get rid of things which you no longer need and maybe just to find somebody to chat to.
[06:47.33]The persons who want to sell their own family things
[06:52.37]sometimes carefully categorize the items and list the prices[06:59.13]Very often the owners give something to the visitors for free.
[07:04.39]In such cases,they may deliberately9 put some things in a box
[07:10.76]and mark the box with the word"Free"
[07:15.62]Yard sales,porch sales or family moving sales seem to be more relaxed and cozy
[07:23.27]when compared with the department store sales.
[07:28.10]Away from the department stores,
[07:32.15]people take their time to carefully choose the items they want
[07:37.61]while chatting with the owners.
[07:41.58]Often,buying and selling doesn't seem to be as important to them.
[07:47.44]They often seem to mainly be enjoying the casual
[07:52.71]and relaxed communication which can happen in such sales.
[07:58.96]14.Listen,read and act.
[08:05.33]Louise calls the jeans store and gets a big surprise.
[08:11.49]Louise:Hello!Is that Westco Jeans?
[08:15.65]I wonder if anyone in the store happened to find a purse.
[08:20.40]...Oh,really?My name is...Would you hold it for me pease?
[08:26.75]I'm coming over soon.(She hangs up the phone)
[08:31.92]Xiaohong:What happened?Do they have your purse?
[08:35.76]Louise:I can't believe it.A customer found my purse on the floor
[08:41.51]and handed it over to the staff.The store is holding it for me.
[08:46.94]LiMeng:How will they know the purse is yours?
[08:51.07]Daniel:She has her ID card in it.They can check by using the photo.
[08:56.84]Lucky for you,Louise.
[08:59.79]Officer:Yes.How lucky you are!I suppose they're waiting for you.
[09:05.25]Louise:Thanks a lot for your time,Sir.Bye now.
[09:09.69]Other three:Goodbye,Sir and thank you.
[09:13.85]15.Listen to the tape and complete the information.
[09:46.50]Unit 12 Want to be a volunteer?
[09:51.46]1.Listen,read and practice.
[09:57.11]Have you ever seen volunteers help peole? Why do people votunteer?
[10:03.66]How can you become one of them?Let's see what LiMeng is doing.
[10:09.59]LiMeng:Daniel,if you've got a minute,could I thalk to you about volunteering?
[10:15.76]Daniel:Sure,as you know,I do some volunteering myself.
[10:20.80]LiMeng:I know if you do volunteer work,you do it for free.Right?
[10:26.68]Daniel:Yeah,but if you want some help with training and finding10 the right place to work in,
[10:33.13]it's a good idea to become a member of a volunteer organization like"Volun-teering SA".
[10:40.78]That costs money.
[10:43.66]LiMeng:I heard that if you look on-line,
[10:47.42]there are plenty of volunteer jobs available.
[10:51.78]Daniel:Yeah,you can find a good job that way.
[10:56.22]But if you want to do the job better,
[11:00.09]it helps to get some training and advice from"Volunteering SA".
[11:06.25]LiMeng:So if I join,I have to call somewhere and fill out a form?
[11:12.00]Daniel:Right.And also pay a fee of $40 plus $4 GST.
[11:19.65]So altogether you pay $44 a year to have a full membership11.
[11:25.71]LiMeng:What?I have to pay money in order to work for free?
[11:30.86]Daniel:Well,you don't have to,but believe me,if you do pay
[11:36.50]your money won't go nowhere.
[11:40.06]You'll get lots of benefits,you know.
[11:43.82]LiMeng:Yeah,those benefits are killing12 me.
[11:47.76]Daniel:No,it's worth it and you get free training,free advice,
[11:53.72]free newsletters and journals13 on volunteering,that sort of thing.
[12:00.09]LiMeng:Pay to be a volunteer?I feel more like a customer than a volunteer! [12:05.94]5.Listen and write.
[12:10.70]Listen to the tape

[13:30.97]Where can you find volunteer job opportunities?
[13:36.01]Call a volunteer centre or search on-line.It's easy and quick.
[13:42.86]LiMeng:Xiaohong,I've found a few volunteer job opportunities on-line.
[13:48.60]Come over and take a look.
[13:51.77]Xiaohong:Volunteer job opportunities?Are you sure you can spare time for it?
[13:57.83]LiMeng:Well,as long as I do it for only a couple of hours a week,
[14:03.39]I should be able to manage it.Anyway,look at these jobs first.What do you think[14:10.36]Xiaohong:This one's good--helping16 old people in nursing homes.
[14:16.01]Reading the newspaper,shopping...and you can decide on the days and time.
[14:22.98]LiMeng:How about this one?
[14:26.04]Giving one-to-one instructions in understanding and using the Internet.
[14:31.78]Introductory level only.
[14:35.34]Xiaohong:But it says country areas here.
[14:39.18]Unless you could drive,this one would be difficult.
[14:44.35]How would you go to these places?
[14:48.01]LiMeng:You're right!Nursing home or computer job,which one shall I choose?
[14:54.25]9.Listen,read and learn.
[14:59.42]Volunteer service in the Weat
[15:03.86]Do you want to work with people or animals or machines or tools?
[15:11.02]Do you want to work indoors17 or outdoors,
[15:15.77]directly serve people in need or serve people behind the scenes?
[15:22.12]These are the typical questions that a volunteer service agency18 would ask.
[15:28.18]Every year,thousands and thousands of people in the west offer volunteer services.
[15:35.16]Vollunteering greatly strengthens the community partly because it helps the old,
[15:42.29]the young,the weak,the sick,the disabled and the injured to overcome difficulties.
[15:50.75]Volunteers usually help in many different ways.
[15:55.90]They may give people advice,offer friendship to the young,
[16:01.18]drive the elderly to church,counsel kids against drugs,
[16:07.13]work as an assistant in a school or nursing home,raise funds,plant trees,
[16:14.99]help out in local libraries and do many other things.
[16:20.74]Volunteering can be a few hours a week or a few hours a month,
[16:26.51]time during the day,evenings or weekends,either part time or full time.
[16:33.96]Anybody who is willing to serve people in need can become a volunteer.
[16:40.20]The art of volunteering is a process of both giving and receiving.
[16:46.16]Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people
[16:51.12]and make new friends and mix with people from all walks of life.
[16:57.39]Volunteering is an excellent way to experiment,
[17:02.12]practice and try out new techniques and skills.
[17:07.37]It is much more effective to practice a skillt
[17:12.41]than to read about it or study it in a classroom.
[17:17.06]Volunteering is a great way to develop good teamwork skills,
[17:23.12]discover your individual talents and explore career choices.
[17:29.68]Being a volunteer takes individuals on a wonderful journey
[17:35.32]and helps them learn many important things beyond their school learning19.
[17:41.28]14.Listen,read and act.
[17:46.74]Have you been to a nursing home for old people?
[17:51.31]Do you know what they need most?How can we help them?
[17:56.64]Mr.peterson,the manager of a nursing home,is giving LiMeng some instructions. [18:03.59]LiMeng:Thank you so much,Mr.Peterson.Is there anything else I should know?
[18:09.33]Peterson:Yes.Many old people here don't hear very well,
[18:14.98]so if you read newspaper or books to them,make sure you are loud and slow.
[18:21.74]LiMeng:Loud and slow.OK,I'll remember that.
[18:26.70]Peterson:And also if something urgent20 turns up and you can't make it here,
[18:32.35]just give me a call so I can arrange things.
[18:37.00]LiMeng:Sure.I've got a mobile21 phone.That's easy.
[18:41.67]Peterson:Now.can you remember our address and which bus comes by our place?
[18:47.84]LiMeng:Yeah.But I'll write them down in my notebook just in case I forget.
[18:54.18]Peterson:Good.Well,that's all I need to tell you.
[18:59.04]Thank you very much,young man,for your interest in helping old people.
[19:04.61]We look forward to seeing you this coming Friday.
