听力原文： Welcome to the Four Winds Historical Farm, where traditions of the past are preserved for visitors like you. Today giving this barn behind me a sturdy thatched roof able to , withstand heavy winds and last up to a hundred years．How do they do it？ Well，in a nutshell，thatching involves covering the beams'or rafters—the wooden skeleton of a roof—with reeds or straw．Our thatchers here have harvested their own natural materials for the job—the bundles of water reeds you see lying over there beside the barn．
Thatching is certainly uncommon in the United States today．I guess that's why so many of you have come to see this demonstration．But it wasn't always that way．In the seventeenth century, the colonists here thatched their roofs with reeds and straw, just as they had done in England. After a while, though, they began to replace the thatch with wooden shingles because wood was so plentiful. And eventually, other roofing materials like stones, slates, and clay tiles came into use.
It' s a real shame that most people today don' t realize how strong and long-lasting a thatched roof is. In Ireland, where thatching is still practiced, the roofs can survive winds of up to one hundred ten miles per hour. That' s because straw and reeds are so flexible. They bend but don' t break in the wind like other materials can. Another advantage is that the roofs keep the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter. And then, of course, there' s the roofs' longevity--the average is sixty years, but they can last up to a hundred. With all these reasons to start thatching

听力原文：W: Excuse me, do you mind answering a few questions？
M: No.
W: Firstly, do you ever cat fast food？
M: Yes, I do.
W: What kind of fast food do you normally eat？
M: Oh, you know, burgers, sandwiches, well sometimes like a pizza.
W: Oh, right. And how often do you eat fast food？ Every day, more than once a week or less than once a week？
M: Well, Monday to Friday when I'm working, but not usually at the weekends.
W: And what time of day do you eat fast food？
M: Well, at work as I said, you know at lunchtime I go out and get a burger or a sandwich. Sometimes, if I'm going out and I don't have time to cook in the evenings then I'll send out for a pizza.
W: Oh, right. Do you only eat it as a main meal or do you snack between meals？
M: No, only a main meal, you know luxurious, in the evening.
W: And what do you think of fast food？ Which statements do you think are true？ Um, either "It's convenient"？
M: Oh, definitely. I mean, that's sort of the main reason that I eat it.
W: Right. How about "It tastes good"？
M: Yeah, I mean, not as good as food like in a good restaurant, but it's not bad.
W: "It's good for you"？
M: No. Sort of eating quickly and standing up it's sort of bad for you, the food itself isn't very good for you, you know there's not enough greens, you know vegetables or salad.
W: How about "It's an expensive way of eating"？ What do you think of that？
M: Oh, yes, it is, but you're paying for the convenience, you know the speed of it. Well, I certainly think that it's cheaper than cooking your own food.
W: And what about lastly "It creates Jitter". Do you think that's true？
M: Yes, it does. Only I always put mine in a litter bin, but unfortunately a lot of people don't, but in the packaging there is a lot of paper involved and plastic and sometimes polystyrene.
