先上音频：

整体概述：

这一篇的录音时间上稍微长一些，大概有1分40多秒。不过时间长不是问题，由于这篇的语速还算正常，其实听起来还算清楚。只是因为这个录音里的老教授经常咳嗽，有些语句上的重复，所以可能对有些同学来说，稍微有点不习惯。但是没关系，对于这种重复的情况其实多我们考生来说是件好事，因为我们可以在那当中稍作休息。

听力原文：

So that creates tensions and that's what I want to talk about. because I think it's important that we are, as asociety, able to have an informed debate about how much privacy is enough but not too much, how security is enough but not too much. Privacy, as a human right, that’s simply quoting the Universal Declaration. In the physical world, we’ve got all kinds of protections. There is evidence that we care about our privacy. We’ve got locks, we’ve got obscured glass, we’ve got lots, we wear clothes, we put up shutters. And technology continues to erode the privacy that exists in the real world, in the three spatial dimensions. Security cameras, automatic number, plate recognition take away anonymity. Long lenses, paparazzi, take away distance and the privacy that used to create. And body scanners are increasingly being used to see through for example. This process isn’t going to slow down and the new quantum technologies are actually being able to do gravitational sensing. And that’s advancing at a remarkable rate. And that’s advancing at a remarkable rate. And you can’t shield gravity. So some of the new quantum technologies are able already to see through walls. And there are technologies also for seeing round corners now using scattered light from lasers. Technology continues to erode privacy.

听力解析：

这位教授先用两个讨论问题把主题引了出来，一个是“隐私有多少是足够而且不是过多的”另一个是“多少安全是足够的而不是过多的”。
接着就用世界人权宣言解释了一下隐私的定义，说是在现实世界中我们有许多种保护，比如我们有locks，obscured glass，lots，我们wear clothes，put up shutters等。
紧接着就提到了这篇RL的重点观点，即technology持续侵犯我们的隐私。
老教授就又举了几个例子，比如：1. 安全摄像头，自动密码，识别板“偷走了”anonymity，2. long lenses，paparazzi则“偷走了”distance and privacy that used tocreate, 3. Body scanners 可以看穿我们的身体。
然后他就总结了一下，这些new quantum technologies are advancing at are markable rate。
最后给出了一个总结性的论点，也是很重要的观点，technology continues to erode privacy。

笔记重点：

一开头的时候大家其实只需要听到关键词：privacy和security。有能力的同学可以把debate：How much privacy is enough but not too much完整重复下来则是最好的。接下来笔记第一点可以是privacy is a human right。笔记第二点则可说些protection的例子：in the real world, we’ve got all kinds of protections. Locks and obscured glass are evidence。笔记第三点可以按照老教授说的三种类别来描述被technology 盗取的例子：anonymity，distance and privacy, seeing through。笔记第四点就说这些technologies are advancing at are markable rate。最后强调一遍technology continues to erode privacy 就可以结束了。

最后附上参考答案：

This lecture talks about privacy and security and how much privacy is enough but not too much. First, the speaker mentioned that privacy as Universal Declaration defines, is a human right. Second, we’ve got protection in the real world, for example, locks and obscured glass. Third, technology takes away anonymity, distance and privacy that used to create and body scanners can see through our bodies. Last, new quantum technologies are advancing at a remarkable rate. In conclusion, the lecture highlighted that advancement of technology continues to erode privacy.

希望今天的这篇RL讲解能够给大家带来答题的启发，使之后的备考也能顺利进行～祝大家早日考到理想成绩！
