听力原文: Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind, / unless they hunt them for food. / Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership / which docs good to both of them.

听力原文: How to Avoid Foolish Opinions
To avoid the various foolish opinions to which mankind is prone, no superhuman genius is required. If the matter is one that can be settled by observation, make the observation yourself. Many matters, however, are less easily brought to the test of experience. If you have passionate convictions on many such matters, there are ways in which you can make yourself aware of your own bias.
If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do. So whenever you find yourself getting angry about a difference of opinion, be on your guard; you will probably find that your belief is going beyond what the evidence warrants. A good way of ridding yourself of certain kinds of prejudice is to become aware of opinions held in social circles different from your own.

hat travels to our eyes. You see this page, for example, because light, reflecting from the sun or an electric light, travels from the paper to your eyes. Sometimes we see light as it comes from a direct source, such as the sun, fire, lighting, or a light bulb. The rest of the time we see light as it is reflected off objects. It must have been a great leap in the intuition of scientists to realize that light actually travels. It isn’t just there! In the air light travels at a speed of 186,000 miles per second. It travels slightly faster in a vacuum and slower in other trans- parent materials such as water or diamonds. It takes light less than one minute to travel from the earth to the moon and about 15 minutes to go from the earth to the sun.
