[04:23.12]Exercise  1
[04:26.62]Directions:
[04:30.14]Before you listen to the passage,
[04:34.28]can you guess from the title what the passage might be about?
[04:41.56]An Unusual Millionaire
[04:45.55]Exercise  2
[04:49.19]Directions:
[04:52.75]Listen to the passage and then fill in the table with what you hear from the tape.
[05:00.64]An Unusual Millionaire
[05:04.70]I know a man called John Smith who is a very unusual millionair
[05:13.24]What makes him unusual is that he has no money
[05:20.18]He says the average millionaire never uses money
[05:26.34]and always gets other people to pay for taxis or drinks
[05:33.00]This is because he is so used to thinking in millions
[05:39.62]that small amounts of money are not worth thinking about.
[05:45.89]But this does not mean he has no worries
[05:51.58]On the contrary, the average millionaire worries constantly about his businesses
[06:00.43]His great wealth
[06:04.14]also makes it difficult for him to be happy and comfortable with other people
[06:12.20]Are they friendly because they like him
[06:16.67]Or do they pretend to like him because they want his money
[06:23.18]John Smith says he feels very sorry for millionaires
[06:29.45]who, instead of being masters of their wealth, are slaves of their millions
[06:37.76]In one way, however, John Smith always behaves exactly like a millionair
[06:46.22]I mean he never has any money and generally manages to persuade
[06:54.40]someone else to pay for his drinks.
[06:59.58]But unlike other very rich men, he gives back good value for money

[07:08.11]He is full of jokes and fun.An evening spent with him is not cheap.
[07:16.50]because he is usually very thirsty, but he always makes people happy
[07:24.10]He does not give much thought for tomorrow,He is the happiest man I have even met
[07:32.56]Whenever I meet him, he tells me
[07:37.78]"In money I am not rich, but in peace of mind I am a millionaire
[07:46.60]And then the world's richest, penniless man usually adds, with a smill
[07:55.38]"Do you have time for another drink?" How can I refuse?
[08:03.08]Exercise 3
[08:07.04]Directions:
