A： 1.Tonight we have a special guest from the local establishment the Prage Café。 Welcome。

B： Hi， thanks for have a meal on your show。

A： Thank you for joining us。 So please tell us why do decide to open a café。

B： Well， we saw the opportunity to offer something a little special and different from other establishments。 Cafe certainly is a very competitive market sector。 There are more than plenty in our city， and we thought they are all rather similar to each other。 Wouldn’t you agree?

A： Certainly yes。 So how is your establishment any different?

B： Well， since people we have rabbits wandering freely on the place; our customers come in and enjoy their food and drinks， while a little rabbit playing on their legs。 There is no other place like it。

A： That’s amazing。 How do you come up with the idea?

B： So we thought why not rabbit? People love the rabbits， they are very cute animals。

A： But it is safe? Do the rabbit ever bite people or do any customer ever hurt the rabbits?

B： It is perfectly safe both for rabbits and our customers。 3.Rabbits are very peaceful and safe。 They don’t bite。 Our rabbits are regularly cleaned。 So there is no risks ever。 4.And as for our customers， they are all animals lovers。 We will never try to hurt the rabbits。 Sometimes some young child may get over excited and be a little too rough。 But is never a serious matter。 On the contrary， the café is a great experience for children。 A chance they learn how to take care of the animals。

A： Well it is certainly the first time I heard of a café like that。

Conversation 2

M： Hey， there。 How are you?

W： Oh， hi。 I’m great， thanks。 And you look great too。

M： Thank you。 It’s good to see you shopping in the organic section。 I see you got a lot of healthy stuff。 I wish I could buy more organic produce from here。 But I find that kids don’t like it。 I don’t know about yours， but mine are all about junk food。

W： Oh， trust me。 I know exactly how you feel。 My children are the same。 (5)What is it with kids these days that all like junk food they eat。 I think (6)it’s all that advertising on TV。 That’s where they get it。

M： Yes， it must be。 My children see something on TV and they immediately want it。 It’s like they don’t realize it’s just an advertisement。

W： Right， and practically everything that advertises for children is unhealthy processed food。 No surprise then， it becomes a battle for us parents to feed our children ordinary food and vegetables。

M： That’s just the thing。 One never sees ordinary ingredients being advertised on TV。 It’s never a carrot or a peach， it’s always some garbage like chocolate covered sweets。 So unhealthy。

W： Exactly。 (7)And these big food cooperations have so much money to spend on clever tactic design to make young people want to buy their products。 Children never stand the chance， it’s really not fair。

M： You are so right。 (8)When we were children， we barely had any junk food available and we turned out just fine。

W： Yes， my parents don’t understand any of it。 Both TV commercials and the supermarkets are alien to them。 Their worlds were so different back to when they are young。

M： I don’t know what will happen to the next generation。

W： The world is going crazy。

M： You bet。

Passage One

At some 2300 miles in length， the Mississippi is the longest river in the United States。 At some 1000 miles， the Mackenzie is the longest river in Canada。 But these waterways seem mute in comparison to the world’s two longest rivers --- the Nile and the Amazon。 The Nile， which begins in central Africa and flows over 4100 miles north into the Mediterranean。 Host to one of the world’s great ancient civilizations along its shores， Calm and peaceful for most of the year， the Nile used to flood annually。 Their by creating， irrigating and caring new top soil to the nearby farmland on which ancient Egypt depended for a livelihood。 As a means of transportation， the river carried various vessels up and down its length。 A journey through the unconstructed part of this waterway today would pass by the splendid valley of the kings with tombs of many of these ancient monarchs， having stood for over 3000 years。 Great civilizations and intensive settlements are hardly associated with the Amazon。 Yet this 4000 mile-long south American river carries about 20% of the world’s fresh water， more than the Mississippi， Nile and the Mackenzie combined。 Other statistics are equally astonishing。 the Amazon is so wide at some points that from its center neither shore can be seen。 Each second the Amazon pours some 55 million gallons of water into the Atlantic。 There， at it’s mouth stands one island larger than Switzland。 Most important of all， the Amazon irrigates the largest tropical rainforest on earth。
