听力原文: After retiring from 30 years of teaching, Ethbell Pepper could easily have decided to sit back and relax and enjoy a peaceful retirement. But that kind life is not for Ethbell Pepper. “I just wanted to do something different. If you are going to participate in life, do it. Don’t just sit down and look out the window.” She says. At 68, she decided to become one of the pioneer participants in a program at the University of California. The program offers campus housing and classes to people over sixty. She enrolled in a class called Human Relationships in a Diverse Society. “I taught minority students in my English and Drama classes in high school for 20 years. But in this course, I found out a lot about other cultures that I didn’t know then. One of the most important lessons that I’m learning is to perceive, not to judge.” Older adults can add to the educational resources of the university by bringing with them a lot of valuable experience. Their presence on campus helps break some working believes about aging. Young students may have fears of growing older. But that kind of fear can be reduced as they see that older people can be active, healthy, and continue to contribute to society. The younger students can begin to see aging as a natural part of living.

听力原文:F:Mr.Hunt,what do you think is the major cause of stress?
M:Stress is generally driven by the feeling of being out of control of a situation and the feeling of a situation controlling you.It's the feeling of uncertainty,being out of control,that causes the stress.
F:So why exactly does your job have a reputation for being stressful?
M:Well,trading financial markets combines both of the above-mentioned situations.Your financial position can change in a matter of seconds,and what changes that position is generally a situation beyond your control as a trader.It is possible to lose in seconds what may have taken you a year to make.I think that's why many people say trader is a stressful job.
F:How do you relax in the evening?
M:In the evening,I very rarely do anything related to my work,so it's easy to escape‘the markets’.I generally go to the gym or go for a run.especially if I've had a bad day.I always cook a meal rather than have a takeaway,to do something my brain would regard as creative.I find it quite helpful!More often than not I will watch some TV before going to bed,as I find it helps me to wind down,to relax.If I go to bed straight after work,it's harder to sleep.
F:What do you do to beat stress at the weekend?
M:I like to be busy and active.I like the feeling of having achieved something over the weekend and it being productive.I definitely don't like wasting days.Most weekends are a mixture of household jobs like fixing something,shopping or gardening and socialising with friends.I also go to watch football games at least once a week.
F:Do you think what you do to relax is an effective way to beat stress?
M:I don't think there is a specific rule about how to beat stress.I generally find that what I do is effective for me.
F:Would you consider changing your job because of the high stress factor?
M:I have considered leaving my job because of those stress related factors.However,I think that anelement of stress is a good thing and if it is used the right way,it can actually be a positive thing.It can lead to a change in direction,success,and even encourage you to do something new.
F:What do you enjoy about the stressful aspects of your job?
M:Having said all that,I do actually enjoy an element of uncertainty.It requires you to keep alert all the time!I enjoy a mental challenge.Trading triggers a very wide range of emotions second by second. How you deal with and manage those emotions dictates short,medium and long term trading performance and success.
F:Do you become less stressed the longer you do the job or does it become more stressful as you go on?
M:I would say it remains constant.The source and the nature of the stress changes and how you deal with it changes due to experience,but,but,it's always there.
