听力题 A small dog brought disaster to a small English town last week. It was trying to cross a busy street but was too frightened to leave the strip in the middle of the street.
A truck driver parked his truck on the side of the road and got out to help it. While he was going to get the dog, his truck rolled down the street. It smashed into four parked cars, crashed through a fence, rolled down a bank and smashed into a row of houses. Only the driver was hurt. The dog bit him on the hand while he was carrying it.
Here is another story about dogs. A nine-year-old child who nearly drowned while she was swimming in a home swimming pool, was saved by the family dog on Saturday. The child was alone in the large pool at the time.
The family of the dog said it would receive an extra large bone as a reward.

听力题 The university was asking students to select summer social topics for projects to undertake. Ding Ling proposed the idea of accessing the AIDS town, and university officials approved the project. After contacting officials at the institution, Ding Ling got on the train for her hometown with fellow student Zhou Wang on July 20.
On July 21, when the two girls finished breakfast in a small restaurant after they had just arrived at the town, the keeper told Ding in a low voice that the man who ate breakfast beside her was an AIDS patient, which surprised the two. AIDS was all around them.
AIDS patients in their hometown live just as anyone else does. They do not stay in any one centralized place to receive treatment. If they need help, they go to the medical institution just like any other patient world.
There are no divorce cases in the town because of HIV infections, and local residents do not discriminate the HIV carriers, the two girls said.
The students said their most unforgettable day was July 16, when they had the lunch with a female AIDS patient whose husband knew of her illness before they were married. But her husband still resolutely loved her and took on the responsibility of looking after his wife. After the pair returned to school, many friends urged them to go to the hospital to check whether they had been infected or not. They just smiled, declining to be checked. HIV can only be spread by sexual contact or blood-to -blood contact.
The biggest wish for Ding is to see an 8-year-old child, Huan Huan, who was infected by her mother, during upcoming Spring Festival. She hopes to bring the little girl some clothes and food, and to take along a camera to record happy moments in the lives of AIDS patients.

听力题 The word "university" comes from the Latin word "universitas" , meaning "the whole". Later, in Latin legal language, "universitas" meant a society or corporation. In the Middle Ages, the word meant "an association of teachers and scholars". The origins of Universities can be traced back to the 12th to 14th centuries. In the early 12th century, long before universities were organized in the modem sense, students gathered together for higher studies at certain centers of learning.
The earliest centers in Europe were at Bologna in Italy, founded in 1088. Other early centers were set up in France, the Czech Republic, Australia and Germany from 1150 to 1386. The first universities in Britain were Oxford and Cambridge. They were established in 1185 and 1209 respectively. The famous London university was founded in 1836. This was followed by the foundation of several universities such as Manchester and Birmingham, which developed from provincial colleges. It was in the 1960s that the largest expansion of higher education took place in Britain. This expansion took three basic forms: existing universities were enlarged, new universities were developed from existing colleges and completely new universities were set up.
In Britain finance for universities comes from three sources: the first, and the largest source, is grants from the government, the second source is fees paid by students and the third one is private donations. All the British universities except one receive some government funding. The exception is Buckingham which is the Britain''s only independent university.

听力题 Scientists are trying to design some small cars that may some day take the place of today''s big automobiles. If everyone drives such cars in the future, there will be less pollution in the air. There will also be more space for parking cars in cities, and the streets will be less crowded. Three such cars can fit in the space that is now needed for one car of the usual size.
The little cars will cost much less to own and to drive. Driving will be safer, too, as these little cars can go only 65 kilometers per hour.
The little cars of the future will be fine for getting a-round the city, but they will not be useful for long trips. Little cars which are powered by gasoline will go 450 kilometers before needing to stop for more gasoline.
If big cars are still used along with the small ones, two sets of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be used for the big, fast cars and other roads will be needed for the slower, small ones.
