What is his major？

People can play and rest there.

听力原文： I want to talk a little bit today about the revolution in American education. We must leave no child behind. We are not satisfied with a society that graduates citizens who cannot read, write or do basic math. Nor are we satisfied to turn out young men and women unprepared to enter fine institutions of higher learning such as this—unprepared to compete in the global economy—unprepared, really, for life itself. Our revolution in education will take an evolution in awareness and thought. We can do it!

SETTING UP SHOP ON THE INTERNET

If you want to set up shop on the Internet, the first thing you will need to get started is, quite simply, SOMETHING to sell. You will need to find a supplier (31) a large inventory of wholesale items. The products have to be at a low enough cost that you can make a large profit margin (32) re-sale. Plus you will need a large variety of items to cover a wide range of your customers' needs and preferences (33) will keep them coming back by offering new items. Next you will need a professional looking website that will give your company (34) well established look and make your customers enjoy (35) experience at your website and will create an environment in which they will want to make purchases. It is also a good idea to accept credit card payments. With the development of secured orders forms, the majority of Internet customers want the convenience to be able to pay (36) their credit card rather than mailing a check (37) money order.

And finally, you will need the marketing strategies that will effectively show you how to bring new customers to your site, and keep them coming back as repeat customers. (38) this point, the World Wide Web is clearly unstoppable. The amount of sales exceeded ＄ 10 billion dollars last year and is predicted to steadily increase each year (39) thousands of Internet users are jumping on-line daily and making their purchases. You can be set up to accept their orders and claim (40) share of this multi-billion dollar a year market.

I Know Just How Yon Feel

Do you feel sad？ Happy？ Angry？ You may think that the way you show these emotions is unique．Well，think again．Even the expression of the most personal feelings can be classified，according to Mind Reading，a DVD displaying every possible human emotion．It demonstrates 412 distinct ways in which we feel：the first visual dictionary of the human heart．Attempts to classify expressions began in the mid-1800s，when Darwin divided the emotions into six types-anger，fear，sadness，disgust，surprise and enjoyment．【46】___\_Every other feeling was thought to derive from Darwin's small group．More complex expressions of emotion were probably learned and therefore more specific to each culture．But now it is believed that many more facial expressions are shared worldwide．【47】______The Mind Reading DVD is a systematic visual record of these expressions．

The project was conceived by a Cambridge professor as an aid for people with autism(孤独症)，who have difficulty both reading and expressing emotions．But it quickly became apparent that it had broader uses．Actors and teachers，for example，need to understand a wide range of expressions．The professor and his research team first had to define an“emotion”．【48】______Using this definition，1，512 emotion terms were identified and discussed．This list was eventually reduced to 412，from“afraid”to“wanting”．

Once these emotions were defined and classified，a DVD seemed the clearest and most efficient way to display them．In Mind Reading，each expression is acted out by six different actors in three seconds．【49】___\_The explanation for this is simple：we may find it difficult to describe emotions using words，but we instantly recognise one when we see it on someone's face．“It was really clear when the actors had got it right，”says Cathy Collis，who directed the DVD．“Although they were given some direction，”says Ms Collis，“the actors were not told which facial muscles they should move．【50】______”For example，when someone feels contempt，you can't say for certain that their eyebrows always go down．

Someone who has tried to establish such rules is the American，Professor Paul Ekman，who has built a database of how the face moves for every emotion．The face can make 43 distinct muscle movements called “action units”．These can be combined into more than 10，000 visible facial shapes．Ekman has written out a pattern of facial muscular movements to represent each emotion．

A．We thought of trying to describe each emotion，but it would have been almost impossible to make clear rules for this．

B．These particular muscles are difficult to control，and few people can do it．

C．Research has also been done to find out which areas of the brain read emotional expressions．

D．They decided that it was a mental state that could be preceded by“I feel”or“he looks”or“she sounds”．

E．He said that the expression of these feelings was universal and recognizable by anyone，from any culture．

F．Any other method of showing all the 412 emotions，such as words，would have been far less effective．
