The store\u2019s card reader failed to scan the card\u2019s magnetic strip. Azar tried again and again, no luck. As customers began to queue, Mr. Azar reached beneath the counter for a black plastic bag. He wrapped one layer of the plastic around the card and tried again. Success, the sale was completed. \u201cI don\u2019t know how it works. It just does,\u201d said Mr. Azar, who learned the trick from another clerk. Verifone, the company that makes the store\u2019s card reader would not confirm or deny that the plastic bag trick worked. But it\u2019s one of the many low-tech fixes for high-tech failures that people without engineering degrees have discovered often out of desperation and shared. Today\u2019sshaky economy is likely to produce many more such tricks. \u201cIn postwar Japan, the economy wasn\u2019t doing so great, so you couldn\u2019t get everyday used items like household cleaners,\u201d says Lisa Katayama, author of Urawaza, a book named after the Japanese term for \u201cclever lifestyle tips and tricks.\u201d So people look for ways to do with what they had. Today Americans are finding their own tips and tricks for fixing non-functioning devices with supplies as simple as paper and glue. Some like Mr. Azar\u2019s plastic bag are open to argument as to how they work, or whether they really work at all. But many tech-home remedies can be explained by a little science. Passage Two If you are a graduate student, you may depend on your adviser for many things including help with improving grades, acquiring financial support, forming and examining committee and getting letters of recommendation. If you are a graduate teaching assistant, your adviser also may be your boss. Academic departments vary in their procedures for assigning academic advisers to graduate students. In some departments, either the chairman or the director of graduate studies serves for at least the first semester as a new student adviser. Then students select an adviser based on shared academic interests. In other departments, a new student is assigned a faculty adviser based on some system of distribution of the department\u2019s advising load. Later, students may have the opportunity of selecting the adviser that they prefer. In any case, new graduate students can learn who their advisers or temporary advisers are by visiting or emailing the departmental office and asking for the information. Graduation requirements specify the number of credits you must earn, the minimum grade point of average you must achieve and the distribution of credits you must have from among differing departments or fields of study. In addition, it is necessary to apply for graduation, when you near the time that you will be completing your graduation requirements. Since graduation requirements vary among divisions of the university, you should consult the Bulletin of Information. You should also direct your questions to your departmental office or academic adviser. Passage Three Jody Hubert is a diet and nutrition expert who travels around the states to speak in middle and high schools. She primarily speaks to students in health classes but sometimes the school will arrange for her to speak to several different groups of girls. Her biggest concern is the emphasis American culture places on thinness and the negative ways this affects girls today. Jody has a Ph.D. in nutrition but more important, she has personal experience, her mother taught her to diet when she was only 8 years old. Jody has created several different presentations, which she gives to different types of audiences and she tries to establish an emotional connection with the students so that they will feel comfortable asking questions or talking to her privately. She shows them pictures and images from popular culture of beautiful women and explains how computers are used to make the women look even more thin and beautiful than they are in real life. She describes how the definition of beauty has changed over the years and even from culture to culture. She then talks about health issue and the physical damage that can occur as the result of dieting. Finally, she addresses self-respect and the notion that a person\u2019s sense of beauty must include more than how much a person weighs. Sometimes Jody feels that she succeeds in persuading some students to stop dieting;other times she feels that she fails. ","sign":3,"direction":"In this section, you will hear three passages.
