You've just heard John
Lennon singing a lullaby to his son Sean.
A
lullaby is a song we sing to
help babies to go to sleep. So he tells
Sean
he looks into the future. He sees
his son setting out on life's
adventure:
Out on the ocean
sailing away
And he can
hardly wait to see his son grow up,
to
reach eighteen when he comes of age and
celebrates becoming an adult. But he
knows they'll both have to be patient
Cause

A
hard row to
hoe
Growing up can be
difficult. At times it can, as we say, be a hard
row to hoe. It's a phrase we use to
describe any difficult task.
But if growing up is sometimes hard, it
is also full of surprises. Things happen when we
least
expect them:
Lire is what happens to you
While
you're
busy
making
other
plans
I think
you'll find the stories you are going to read in
this unit show that John Lennon was
right:
growing up can be
quite an adventure, full of the
unexpected.
As for John
Lennon, sadly he never did live to see his son
grow up and come of age, for John
was
shot dead by a madman in New York while Sean was
still only five years old.

On the morning of

school where I would take the

examination.
Less than halfway between my house and
the school, disaster struck. My bike hit a nail
and the
front tyre went flat. I pushed
the bike along the streets, looking for a repair
shop. Minutes passed but
still there
was none to be found. When I looked at my watch, I
went wild with worry: there were
only
fifteen minutes left before the examination began,
and the nearest bus stop was a long way off.
Not knowing what to do, I stood still
by the side of the road, tears welling up in my
eyes. Then a car
pulled in and I heard
a voice asking what the matter was. When he heard
my story, the driver offered
me a lift.
Thank to his kindness, I arrived just in time. And
so here I am today.

Model paper
Old
Friend,
I've been meaning to
write for some time, but I've always postponed it.
Y
ou know what I'm
like,
always putting things off till tomorrow. And
writing was never my strong point. But looking
out the window just now at the kids
playing outside reminded me of when we were their
age. All
sorts of memories, like the
time Tim Shea broke the window, the Halloween that
we tied Old Mr.
Parker's gate, and when
Mrs. Culver used to keep us after school, came
flooding back. What a great
time
we spent
hanging
out
together.
Come to
think
of
it,
time was
just
about
all
we
did
have
to
spend in those days.
But
time flies. I began the letter with
years
—
old
friends.
And
there
aren't
many
of
us
left.
Which
makes
those
who
are
all
the
more
precious.
Y
ou in particular. Y
our
friendship over the years has meant an awful lot
to me, more than I
can say because I'm
not good at saying things like that.
Anyway, we've been out of touch for far
too long. So I
thought you'd like to
know that I was
thinking of you. We
really must try to get together soon. Why not come
to visit? Y
ou know you're
always welcome.
Y
our Old Friend,
Tom
PS If you see Tim Shea
remind him he never did replace that ball of mine
he broke the window
with!

Unit 3
Part I
Pre-
reading Task
Script for the
recording:
This unit begins
with an article on science. Before you read it,
let me tell you something about
its
author, Stephen Hawking.
Hawking
is
perhaps
the
most
well-known
scientist
since
Einstein.
Like
Einstein
his
work
tackles the big questions, questions
such as
How did the universe begin? Why
is the universe the
way it is?
and
How will it end?
He is now working on what is sometimes
known as the 'theory of
everything.'
Among other things, this promises to explain what
caused the Big Bang that started the
universe.
But
it
is
not
simply
the
power
of
Hawking's mind
that
has
led
to
his fame.
For what
many
people
find
most
striking
about
him
is
the
contrast
between
the
strength
of
his
mind
and
the
weakness of his body. For for many
years Hawking has suffered from an illness that
has left him
unable to move and to
speak normally.
Born
in
England
in
1942,
Hawking
had
a
normal
childhood,
and
it
was
not
until
he
was
a
student
at
university
that
his
illness started
to
affect
him.
Hospital
tests
showed
he was suffering
from a disease that weakens control
over the muscles. The disease gets worse with time
and there is
no known cure. But Hawking
did not lose heart. As he
says,
over my future, I found, to my
surprise, that I was enjoying life more than
before. I began to make
progress with
my research, and I got engaged to a girl called
Jane Wilde. That engagement changed
my
life. It gave me something to live
for.
Hawking started research at
Cambridge and went on to hold the same post that
another great
scientist, Newton, once
held. Over the years his condition has worsened,
but even when he finally
lost the
ability to speak, he managed to get round the
problem. He now uses a computer that enables
him to select words which are then
turned into speech.

It
is hard to imagine how
our forefathers could do without so many
conveniences that
modern
technology
has
brought
about.
Back
then
only
a
small
proportion
of
the
population
en-joyed some
comforts. The majority didn't even have sufficient
food, not to speak of/let alone
the
privilege
of
being
educated.
However,
many
people
blame
modern
technology
for
the
problems
it has created. They want to slow down the rate of
progress. But no one can put the
clock
back.
The
best
we
can
do
is
to
make
informed
decisions
as
to
the
direction
in
which
technology is to
develop.

How Science Changes Our
Lives
Science
has
certainly
changed
our
lives,
bringing
benefits
to
some
and
hardships
to
others.
Computers, for
example, have provided some with the comfort of
working from home while at the
same
time throwing others out of work as their jobs are
automated. In the future changes are likely
to
be
even
much
greater
as
science
reaches
out
to
shape
life
itself.
New
organisms
(
有机体
)
are
already being
engineered. New genetically modified crops promise
benefits from higher yields and
less
use of harmful chemicals.
But
once
again
we
cannot
be sure
that science
will
only
change
our
lives
for
the
better.
The
possibility
remains
that some
modern
Frankenstein
may
carelessly
or
deliberately
let
loose
a
new
and

dangerous form of life. However, we
should have sufficient faith in the good sense of
the public to
believe that we could
prevent this from happening.

Script for the recording:
What
you
are
about
to
hear
is
an
interview
with
Dr
Lee
Hertz,
the
director
of
a
scientific
laboratory in Stanford
University, California.
Interviewer:
Dr. Hertz:
Interviewer:
Dr.
Hertz:
What does the
expression the American Dream mean to you?
I guess in one way it's the dream of my
grandparents. They turned their backs
on poverty in Poland and set out with
high hopes for a new life in America.
So the American Dream means getting out
of poverty?
Then it did. However, when
they got to America, they realized that the dream
wasn't going to happen, that the
streets were not paved with gold and they had
to struggle to make a living. So the
dream became the chance for their children
to succeed.
Interviewer:
Dr. Hertz:
Through?
Through
hard
work
and
giving
their
kids
an
education.
They
thought
that
through
Interviewer:
Dr.
Hertz:
Interviewer:
Dr.
Hertz:
education their
children would have the choice of doing what they
wanted. That
basically life could be
what you made it.
And do you believe
that?
Well, America does give
some
people the opportunity
to be what they want to
be.
Why just some people? Isn't the
American Dream an idea everyone can believe
in?
Interviewer:
Y
es, but only because our
government wants us to believe it. Y
ou
could say that
the American Dream has
been used to support the capitalist system. It
keeps
most of the population working
and spending their money.
How?

Dr
.
H
ertz:
Well,
all
the
time
TV
shows
that
the
dream
of
a
good
life
can
be
reached
through money. Advertising tells you to
buy and buy so that finally you will get
there and the dream will come true.
So
you're
saying
it's
the
dream
that
makes
the
system
work?
Y
es,
because
people become gripped by the need to
move up in the world, they have to reach
the top. They are never satisfied with
what they have. The Ameri-can Dream is
at the end of the rainbow. It's not
simply about having enough money to buy the
things you need. It's about reaching
the level of all the other people who have
the money to buy more than you can
afford. The American Dream may be
in
your head, but to find it you have to
reach into your pocket.
