Listen for attitudes
When you listen, you should pay attention not only to the words but also to HOW the speaker is talking. If people strongly disagree with something, they might exaggerate their intonation. If you hear people speaking very quickly or loudly, they may be excited or angry. If they speak slowly or stop often, they may be confused or not sure about what they are saying.
1 What did the girl do to help the student
2 What was the girl’s name What was she famous for
Listen to the conversation carefully and answer the questions.
She carried the student to a safe place and looked after her. Then she went to the hospital with the student and called her sister.
Her name was Lin Qiaozhi. She later became a great doctor. She was famous for caring for tens of thousands of women and their babies.
3 What did Jane say about the girl’s life
Her life was full of hard choices, but she didn’t let them stop her from taking care of people who were in need. She always cared for others more than for herself.
Luke: Hi Jane! What are you reading
Jane: Oh,hey, Luke! I'm reading a very interesting magazine article about moral dilemmas.
Luke: Moral dilemma What do you mean
Jane: You know,it's when you have two choices,and you have to choose one, but for moral reasons, sometimes it could be really difficult to decide.
Luke: Oh, situations like that don't happen very often, do they
Jane: Actually, I think people face moral dilemmas all the time, even us students.
Luke: Really Like what
Jane: Well,for example,it mentions a girl who was taking the entrance exam for a medical university in Beijing. During the exam, the student next to her fainted(昏厥的). The girl had a choice. Should she finish the exam or should she stop and help the student
Listening material
Luke: Surely the teachers would look after the student who fainted!
Jane: Well, that's what I thought-but not this girl. She stopped to help the student, thinking that it was better to put the needs of the other person first.
Luke: So what happened to her exam
Jane: She never finished it. Instead, she carried the student to a safe place and looked after her. Then she went to the hospital with the student and called her sister.
Luke: I can't believe she would give up her chance to get into medical university! Who would do such a thing
Jane: Well,that girl was Lin Qiaozhi. She later did get into medical university and then she became agreat doctor. She became famous for caring for tens of thousands of women and their babies.
Luke: Oh,wow! So she became a doctor even though she left her exam that day!
Jane: Yes. Her life was full of hard choices, but she didn't let them stop her from taking care of peoplewho were in need. She always cared for others more than for herself.
