A linguist, who studies languages, is always listening, never off-duty. I invited a group of friends to my house, telling them that I was going to record their speech. I said I was interested in their regional accents (地方口音), and it would take only a few minutes to record it. Afterwards, one evening, three people came to my house and were shown into my sitting-room. In front of each chair there was a microphone (麦克风) at head height, connected to a recorder in the middle of the floor. They sat down rather nervously. I explained that all I wanted was for them to count from one to twenty, then we could relax and have a drink.
I turned on the recorder and they each in turn counted from one to twenty in their best accents. When it was over, I turned the recorder off and brought round the drinks. The rest of the evening was spent in complete relaxation. I talked and joked with them freely and left them for a telephone call which lasted some time.
You know, of course, the microphones were not connected to the recorder in the middle of the room at all but to another one in the bedroom. My friends, having seen the recorder before them turned off, paid no more attention to the microphones a few inches from their mouths, thus giving excellent sound quality (质量). It meant that I was able to get a piece of natural talk.
I should add, perhaps, that I did tell my friends what had happened to them after the recording was over, and asked them whether it should be destroyed. None of them wanted to – but for some years after that, it always seemed that when it came to buying drinks, I paid for them. Linguistic research can be a very expensive business.

A report in a newspaper says that school accidents,such as food poisoning(食物中毒),fires,electricity and traffic,kill more primary and middle school students than anything else.So we must learn how to protect ourselves better.Here are some tips for keeping safety in mind every day.
On our way home or to school:Wait for the green traffic light,and look left and right before we cross the road.We’d better wear bright-color clothes,so the drivers can see us easily.Don't believe strange people in the street.
At school: When students around us begin to push each other,we need to stand still and try to hold onto something,or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves.If we fall down in a moving crowd,use both hands to cover the head.Lean to one side,curl up(蜷缩) our body and bend(使弯曲) the legs.
In a fire:Stay calm.Leave the classroom quickly under the directions of the teachers.Smoke can be more dangerous than fire,so use a piece of cloth to cover our mouth and nose.What will we do if the clothes burn? Remember not to rum Drop and fall to the ground.Then roll! It will make the fire go out.
For eating: Wash fruits carefully before eating them.Check the expiration dates(保质期) on the packages of the snacks,and if it look or smell bad,don’t eat it.
