Dear Mrs. Miller,
I was awfully sorry to learn that Tom kicked his ball through your window this morning.
He has been warned time and time again not to play football beside your house. Unfortunately, he disobeyed me, and I can only offer my sincere apologies. When you have the window repaired, please send the bill to me.
Apologize once again.
Yours sincerely，
Mary Washington

听力原文： As is known to all, scientists and philosophers had studied the human body and its functions from very early times. Unfortunately, many of the ideas and theories, correct and incorrect, were accepted without question for a great number of years. But by the 16th century, knowledge gained through chemical experiments was beginning to make some people think more deeply about how the human body works.
A most important medical discovery was made by William Harvey in 1628. He found out that the blood is circulated round the body in one direction only by the pumping action of the heart. It had previously been incorrectly thought that the blood moved with a backward and forward motion.
Early in the 17th century a new instrument came into use that was to open up a whole new area in the study of medical and scientific matters. This was the microscope.
The first instruments were not very efficient. They were able to magnify only a very small part of the object and this was always surrounded by rings of colored light. Nevertheless a great step forward had been taken which was of vital importance for future research and development.

听力原文： Here is a story. A participant in the long-distance race got his shoes filled with sand when he was crossing a beach. He had to stop to get the sand out hastily before he resumed running. Unfortunately a grain of sand remained rubbing the sole so that his steps became increasingly painful. Reluctant to halt and get rid of the sand, he continued to run in spite of the pain until he could stand no more. He dropped out of the contest just a few yards from the finishing line. As he managed to get out of the shoe painfully, he was surprised to find the cause of his lasting pain was only a grain of sand.
It seems that the greatest obstacle on one's way forward may not be a high mountain or a deep valley but a grain of sand that is hardly visible. To avoid blame on a minor fault one may tell a lie. That adds a burden to a heavy heart and weighs it down. In the days to come he will have to make up one story after another to cover the lie he told and the fault he committed. Thus he will never be able to free himself from lasting anxiety, worry and regret, to the ignorance that all his sufferings come from only a grain of sand -- the first lie he told.

M: Yes, Unfortunately, that's a common problem with books made from wood pulp.
W: I suppose that to make paper from wood you have to add a lot of chemicals and acids to make it tam white.
M: Exactly, and it's the acid that eventually eats away the paper.
W: Oh, that actually makes sense, but this book's not even 75 years old and I've seen books in museum that are hundreds of years old and they're in fine condition.
M: Well, you see, books have been made from wood pulp only since the 1850s, before that they were made from materials mostly animals' skins, and no chemicals were added.
W: It's a shame those older wood pulp books are going to fall apart some day. is there anything that can be done to preserve them？
M: En, currently the only way to stop the books from decaying is to remove the binding and treat each page individually to remove the acid.
W: That doesn't sound very economical.
M: No, it isn't. It's not practical to treat a large number of books with this process, so we only try to rescue the most valuable edition books in our collection.
W: Well, thanks for the explanation. I'd better got back to my project.
M: Good luck and I hope the old book will hold long enough for you to finish it.
