[02:18.45]Edward Ted,a retired postman who lives in New York
[02:22.45]was attacked a month ago at a subway entrance in his neighborhood.
[02:26.57]It was late afternoon,he said.
[02:28.79]and he was returning home from visiting his wife in the hospital.
[02:32.87]Suddenly,three young men assaulted him.
[02:36.42]They grabbed his watch and his wallet,then hit him in the face.
[02:40.57]The blow sent him crashing to the ground and when he got up.
[02:44.88]his glasses were smashed and a tooth was knocked out.
[02:48.23]Doctors later found that several of his cheek bones had been broken.
[02:52.85]Mr.Ted,a tall man of 76,said that before the mugging.
[02:57.87]he went where he wanted.
[02:59.57]when he wanted, without fear.
[02:59.64]Even though he said he was"determined not to dwell on the incident,"he admitted.
[03:04.84]"I'm very cautious now when I go out."He said.
[03:09.07]"I try to stick with crowds of people.
[03:11.45]I don't want to be alone on the street or in the subway."
[03:15.34]"I guess I'm more nervous than before," Mr.Ted said.
[03:18.99]"There is a tension - you can't get it out of your mind."

[03:37.28]Passage Two
[03:38.53]Before the 20th century,the horse provided day to day transportation in the United State.
[03:45.14]Trains were used only for long-distance transportation.
[03:49.06]Today the car is the most popular sort of transportation in all of the United State.
[03:55.51]It has completely replaced the horse as a means of everyday transportation.
[04:00.84]Americans use their car for nearly 90 percent of all personal trips.
[04:07.24]Most Americans are able to buy car.
[04:11.00]The average price of a recently made car was $2,050 in 1950,
[04:18.68]$2,740 in 1960 and up to $ 4,750 in 1975.
[04:30.41]During this period American car manufacturers set about improving their products and work efficiency.
[04:38.51]As a result,the yearly income of the average family increased from 1950 to 1975 faster than the price of car.
[04:50.11]For this reason purchasing a new car takes a smaller part of a family's total earnings today.
[04:59.23]14. What was the only use of trains before the 20th century?
[05:04.61]15. What is the most popular sort of transportation today?

[05:26.71]Passage Three
[05:28.43]A neighbor told us about a trip he took with his two-and-a-half-year-old so.
[05:33.53]It was the first time that the father and the boy had been away by themselves.
[05:38.25]The first night they spent in a hotel.
[05:40.97]the father moved his bed close to the boy's and when they were both tucked it.
[05:45.85]he turned off the light.
[05:47.63]After a few minutes,a little voice said.
[05:50.58]"It is sure dark,isn't it?"
[05:53.59]"Yes,"said the father.
[05:55.60]"It's pretty dark,but everything is all right.
[05:59.28]There was silence for a few minutes more.
[06:01.74]and then a small hand reached over and took the father's hand.
[06:06.02]"I'll just hold your hand,"said the little boy.
[06:08.79]"in case you get frightened."
