解析：

[听力原文]  The Catholic church is worried that people aren’t taking sins seriously enough. So the Vatican has decided to update its list of the seven deadly sins. But whereas the focus of traditional sins--LUST, GREED, SLOTH, WROTH, ENVY, PRIDE, and GLUTTONY is individual, those which we will consign today is seen as the hellfire and more social than nature. In the days when the artist Hieronymus Bosch gave us his view of the sins they said the earth was flat. Now the Vatican says its new sins will take into account the after effects of globalization. New sins on the block could be Abusing drags or selling them to others, Genetic manipulation such as embryo research which the Vatican opposes, Morally dubious experiments think Dolly the sheep, Polluting the environment, Creating social inequalities and social injustice, Causing poverty and which some would say goes with it, Accumulating excessive wealth￡┐wealth, something the church itself has been known to do.
