4 Listening for cause and effect Listen to a passage and match each cause with its direct effect. Tips 在听涉及因果逻辑关系的听力材料时，可以通过区分表示 原因和结果的表达来理解其前后文的因果关系。常用的表 示原因的表达有 because, for, since, because of, as a result of 等。常见的表示结果的表达有 so, as a result, lead to 等。

5 Listening for cause and effect Listen to a passage and match each cause with its direct effect. CauseEffect They hardly go to sleep before 11:00 p.m. They are short of sleep. They might fall asleep in class or while doing their homework. Many students cannot get enough sleep. Students have heavy workloads, poor study habits, or long commuting time. Many students have either a telephone or a computer in their bedroom.

6 Listening for cause and effect Scripts A recent survey in Beijing shows that many middle school students suffer from a lack of sleep. Scientists suggest that junior high school students should sleep at least nine hours a day and senior high school students no less than eight hours. However, many students cannot get enough sleep. Therefore, they might fall asleep in class or while doing their homework. So it is not surprising that they get lower grades than those who get enough sleep. Many students are short of sleep because they have heavy workloads, poor study habits, or long commuting time, according to an expert. Also, many students have either a telephone or a computer in their bedroom. As a result, they hardly go to sleep before 11:00 p.m., but they have to get up early to go to school.

39 Passage A My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse 1.My name is Amy. I’m a 25-year-old graduate student who likes yoga, home-decorating, and eating spoonfuls of peanut butter straight from the jar. Oh yeah, and I’m an iPhone addict. 2.I wasn’t always an addict. In fact, for many years I told myself I didn’t want a fancy cellphone. They seemed like too much work, always beeping, ringing, and demanding attention. I was perfectly content with my simple antique, and I didn’t anticipate changing my mind anytime soon. __________________________________________________ ______ _________________________

40 Passage A My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse 3. However, about a year ago, I found myself envious of all those proud iPhone owners cradling their shiny new phones and showing them off to all their friends. I started eavesdropping on conversations about “iPhone apps,” feeling like a tourist listening to a language I couldn’t speak. 4. Eventually I couldn’t ignore my iPhone instinct any longer, and I welcomed my new iPhone into my life. I instantly fell in love with the little electronic ware of joy, and could no longer imagine a life without it. ________________________ ________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ ______________________________________________ _________________________

41 Passage A My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse 5. To my surprise, I suddenly found myself with a whole new circle of friends—other iPhone owners I could go to for advice and support as I learned the various functions of my new device. They responded to my iPhone-related queries when my non-iPhone friends couldn’t, and didn’t roll their eyes when I bragged about all the things little Eloise (yes, I named her) could do. ___________________________________________________ ___________________________

42 Passage A 6. For a couple of months I was living on iCloud nine as I built my new life with Eloise. However, I realized I had a problem when one day I found myself Google-mapping my way to my mailbox, which is just outside my front door. 7. When I reflected upon the past few months, I couldn’t believe I didn’t see this coming. All the warning signs were there. Eloise slept right beside me and was the first thing I reached for in the morning. I checked my e-mail about 20 times a day. I also experienced separation anxiety when I left poor Eloise in the locker room at the gym. What if she beeped and needed my response? Or, even worse, what if a careless gym-goer knocked her out of my bag and caused her screen to crack? _______________ __________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ _____________________________ My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse __________________________________ ___________ __________________________

43 Passage A 8. OK, so I was addicted to my iPhone. 9. Once I admitted I had a problem, things started to change. What used to feel like friendly notifications now felt like constant nagging I had to respond to. I hated that I could no longer leave the house without Eloise in my hand. Eventually, I resented Eloise so much that I wanted to throw her at the wall—and would have, too, if I weren’t worried about being reported for iPhone abuse. _________________________________________ My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse _______________________________________________ ______________________________ ________________________________________________ __________________________

44 Passage A 10. I decided something had to be done. But, as I quickly realized, iPhones are like cigarettes and are not easy to quit. 11. Then, while taking the bus to work one day, I was unexpectedly forced to quit—at least temporarily. When I reached into my purse to grab Eloise (to check my e-mail for only the seventh time that morning), I found her overcome by fever. She was so hot that I dropped her immediately back into my bag with barely enough time to comprehend the words “overheating” and “power-off” that flashed upon her screen. When I picked her up again, she was dead. ______________________________________________ My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse _______________________________________

45 Passage A 12. My head was filled with panic as I attempted to revive it in vain. I couldn’t call anyone for advice. I couldn’t Google whether this had happened to any fellow iPhone parents. And when I finally arrived at work (luckily I found my office without Google maps to guide me), I learned that sick days do not apply to one’s iPhone children. ____ ________________________________________________ My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse ________________________________________________ ___________________

46 Passage A 13. The Apple Store was closed by the time I finished work, so I headed home worrying about an Eloise-less night. But, after a couple of hours without any text alerts, push notifications, or even good old-fashioned phone calls, I felt... calmer. After a few more hours I felt like a whole new woman, rising above the need for a silly... what was it called again? It had been so long I could hardly remember. ______________________________________________ My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse _____________________________

47 Passage A 14. Without my electronic partner, I drifted off into the deepest slumber I’d had in months. The next morning, I read the news from a real newspaper, instead of from my iPhone. I even noticed the cherry blossoms blooming. 15. My goodness, what had I been missing? 16. But although it went against my newly redefined principles, I made my way to the Apple Store later that afternoon after admitting I’d need a phone sooner or later. My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse

48 Passage A 17. Half an hour later, I found myself yet again the proud owner of a new iPhone. When I turned it on, a wave of familiarity washed over me as it buzzed, calling me to note the missed texts and information over the past two days. As I rode home, I found myself frenziedly responding to messages of “where are u?” and “c u soon?” Suddenly, I was reminded of an old song: “I’ve got one hand in my pocket, and the other is”—death-gripping an iPhone. 18. Without finishing my text, I put my phone back into my purse and decided to just enjoy the ride for a while. ___________________________ _______________________________________________ My rocky recovery from iPhone abuse ________________________________________

After a successful career as a commercial illustrator, Warhol became a renowned and sometimes controversial artist. The Andy Warhol Museum in his native city, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, holds an extensive permanent collection of art and archives.

He was also a pioneer in computer-generated art using Amiga computers that were introduced in 1984, two years before his death.

99 1.Look at the pictures on Page 79 and Page 80. Do you think they are works of art? Why or why not? Pre-reading Work in groups to do the following activities. Passage B – Andy Warhol: Turn high art into a brand I don't think they are works of art, because I fail to see any sense of art. They are just a series of similar pictures. I know they belong to Pop art, which presents a challenge to traditions of fine art by including images from popular culture such as advertising, news, etc. But as a kind of art, it’s really beyond my understanding and appreciation. I think that they are works of art. Art is what reflects our society and world and enables us to think. The two pictures choose the objects popular in daily life, making audiences easily relate to them. In this sense, the pictures are good works of art. Sample answer:

102 Passage B Andy Warhol: Turn high art into a brand 1.By the mid-1950s, Andy Warhol’s career in commercial illustration was really taking off. But what he wanted more than ever was to become a famous artist. 2.Andy’s first illustration for the article “Success is a job in New York” now seems incredibly apt because within a couple of years he’d become one of New York City’s hottest commercial artists. His work appeared in Glamour, Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar. He also did record sleeves and book jackets and dressed windows for department stores. By the time he was 27, he was already making more than $100,000 a year, which was big money in the 1950s. But he still dreamt of being a real artist.

103 Passage B Andy Warhol: Turn high art into a brand 3.For his work to be taken seriously as art rather than just illustrations, it had to be about something. It had to comment on the world around people and make them look at life differently. And the world that Andy saw was “boom-time America.” This poor kid who’d grown up during the Great Depression was obsessed by the 1950s’ consumer revolution: the glossy commercials for shiny cars, the supermarkets crammed with varieties of undreamt-of food. He loved this mass-produced world of plenty, and, with his commercial background, Andy thought he could create art that reflected it. _______________________________________________ __________________________________________ ____________________________ _________________________________________________ ________________

104 Passage B Andy Warhol: Turn high art into a brand 4.Andy loved Coca-Cola. He thought, “Why shouldn’t a bottle of Coke be a work of art?” And the next thing he did was so crucial in his development as an artist because he created this. And look, you can tell at once that suddenly here’s a much stronger, bolder style that’s all his own. It might not seem like much, but deciding to depict a commercial object on the canvas, and deciding to present it in this clean, graphic, and mechanical mode, was a huge deal in the art world at the time. And this turned Andy into the pioneer of a new movement called “Pop art.” ________________________________________________ ________ ______________________________

105 Passage B Andy Warhol: Turn high art into a brand 5.Artists have always painted things from their everyday lives, like hay carts, vases of flowers, bowls of fruit. What “Pop art” said was that stuff from the commercial world and popular culture could also be art. And that’s how 32 cans of soup made it onto the walls of MoMA, America’s most important modern art museum. 6.With these soup cans Andy finally managed to break into the high art world, with a landmark solo exhibition in 1962. ______________________________ _______________________________________________ ______________________________ _______________________________________________ _________________

106 Passage B Andy Warhol: Turn high art into a brand 7.When these cans were first shown, most people thought they were a joke, but they really mark Andy’s coming of age as a pop painter. The bright colors, the crisp, mechanical technique, the presentation of a series of nearly identical images, were all things that Andy would play with again and again. Like so much of his later work, these paintings were about the consumer society. And really they’re about us. 8.Andy had begun a revolution, and what could now be classified as art would never be the same again. __________ _________________________________________________ ______

107 Passage B Andy Warhol: Turn high art into a brand 9.Like it or not, we have Andy Warhol to thank for today’s artists who are obsessed with consumer culture and everyday objects. Now artists can stick anything ordinary—cola cans, designer trainers, Japanese cartoons—in a gallery and declare it art. 10.Today, nearly 50 years after his glory days as a pop artist, his work has moved out of the gallery and into our everyday lives. It’s so strong, so reproducible, that it appears everywhere. With Andy Warhol, high art became a brand. His art about modern consumer culture has become part of it. ______________________________________________ ___________________________ ____________________ ______________________________________________ ________________________________________________ _________________
