Unit 10Religion and SocietyUnit OverviewClassical, seminal sociological theorists of the late 19th and early 20th century such as Émile Durkheim, Max Weber, and Karl Marx were greatly interested in religion and its effects on society. Like those of Plato and Aristotle from ancient Greece, and Enlightenment philosophers from the 17th through 19th centuries, the ideas posited by these sociologists continue to be examined today. Durkheim, Marx, and Weber had very complex and developed theories about the nature and effects of religion. Of these, Durkheim and Weber are often more difficult to understand, especially in light of the lack of context and examples in their primary texts. Religion was considered to be an extremely important social variable in the work of all three.Max Weber published four major texts on religion in a context of economic sociology and his rationalization thesis: The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism (1905), The Religion of China: Confucianism and Taoism(1915), The Religion of India: The Sociology of Hinduism and Buddhism (1915), and Ancient Judaism (1920).In his sociology, Weber uses the German term "Verstehen" to describe his method of interpretation of the intention and context of human action. Weber is not a positivist; he does not believe we can find out "facts" in sociology that can be causally linked. Although he believes some generalized statements about social life can be made, he is not interested in hard positivist claims, but instead in linkages and sequences, in historical narratives and particular cases.Weber argues for making sense of religious action on its own terms. A religious group or individual is influenced by all kinds of things, he says, but if they claim to be acting in the name of religion, we should attempt to understand their perspective on religious grounds first. Weber gives religion credit for shaping a person's image of the world, and this image of the world can affect their view of their interests, and ultimately how they decide to take action.Text AIn “The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism”, Max Webber believed that religion (and specifically Calvinism) actually helped to give rise to modern capitalism because religion helps to define motivation. He argues that capitalism arose in Europe in part because of how the belief in predestination was interpreted by everyday English Puritans.Puritan theology was based on the Calvinist notion that not everyone would be saved; there was only a specific number of the elect who would avoid damnation, and this was based sheerly on God's predetermined will and not on any action you could perform in this life. Official doctrine held that one could not ever really know whether one was among the elect. Thus Puritan leaders began assuring members that if theybegan doing well financially in their businesses, this would be one unofficial sign they had God's approval and were among the saved – but only if they used the fruits of their labour well. This along with the rationalism implied by monotheism led to the development of rational bookkeeping and the calculated pursuit of financial success beyond what one needed simply to live – and this is the "spirit of capitalism".Text BIn “Felix Rachfahl’s Review of The Protestant Ethic, 1909”, Austin Harrington demonstrates Rachfahl’s critique on Weber’s view in three areas: (1) problems with the concept of “capitalist spirit”; (2) Calvinism and the vocational ethic; (3) the economic influence of Calvinism. Rachfahl sees Weber’s concept of the capitalist spirit as both too wide and too narrow. He maintains that Weber’s account of the economic consequences of Calvinism is “often ambivalent, vague and contradictory” and in need of more exact corroboration. Rachfahl points out that Weber was wrong to exclude Renaissance and late-medieval developments from the “capitalist spirit”. He also argues for a variety of alternative political reasons for capitalist development, such as the non-suppression of religious dissent and subordination of church to state in certain countries.Teaching objectivesThis unit is designed to help students develop their reading skills, communicative competence, critical thinking, intercultural reflection and abilities in autonomous learning in the following aspects.Reading skills:Identify main ideas in paragraphs, multi-paragraph units and the whole text Understand how special ideas, paragraphs and larger portions of the text relate to each other and the wholeUnderstand the text by relying heavily on background knowledgeCommunicative competence:Build a range of religion- and economy-related vocabularyAchieve language accuracy through sense relations and word formationSelect language forms appropriate to the topicCritical thinking:Identify the unstated assumptions in Weber’s reasoning and assess their validity Make interdisciplinary connections between economic and religious studies Compare and evaluate two opposing propositionsIntercultural competence:Be aware of the differences and similarities between Western and Chinese religions Reinterpret traditional Chinese culture in light of Weber’s theoryExplain how the larger religious culture shapes individual lifeTeaching strategiesText A discusses the relationship between religion and economic prosperity. Since the text includes quite some difficult terms and concepts, the teacher better starts with a discussion on these basic terms and concepts. For example, “protestant ethic”, “capitalist spirit”, “Calvinism”, “Puritans”, “Reformation” etc. When these terms and concepts are clarified, it would be easier to understand the text.Text B offers a critique on Weber’s view on the relationship between religion and capitalism serving as an additional reading. The teacher can use the text of rebuttal to help students question or challenge Weber’s view while learning Text A to enhance their critical thinking ability.Further reading:Batson, C.

Preparatory Work(1)Weber’s contributions: (April 1864 – June 1920) a German sociologist, philosopher, jurist, and political economist. Weber is often cited, with Émile Durkheim and Karl Marx, as among the three founders of sociology. Weber was a key proponent of methodological antipositivism, arguing for the study of social action through interpretive (rather than purely empiricist) means, based on understanding the purpose and meaning that individuals attach to their own actions. Weber is best known for his thesis combining economic sociology and the sociology of religion, elaborated in his book The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism. He was also the first to categorize social authority into distinct forms, which he labeled as charismatic, traditional, and rational-legal. His analysis of bureaucracy emphasized that modern state institutions are increasingly based on rational-legal authority.Main idea of the book: In The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, Weber put forward the thesis that Calvinist ethic and ideas influenced the development of capitalism. Weber argued that the Protestant ethic (or more specifically, Calvinist ethic) motivated the believers to work hard, be successful in business and reinvest their profits in further development rather than frivolous pleasures; The notion of calling taught people to see their work as a “calling” by God, which they were to use to glorify God; Predestination meant that a material wealth could be taken as a sign of salvation in the afterlife. The believers thus justified pursuit of profit with religion, as instead of being fuelled by morally suspect greed or ambition, their actions were motivated by a highly moral and respected philosophy. This Webercalled the "spirit of capitalism". This theory is often viewed as a reversal of Marx's thesis that the economic "base" of society determines all other aspects of it.The concept of Protestant work ethic:The Protestant work ethic, the Calvinist work ethic or the Puritan work ethic, is a concept in theology, sociology, economics and history which emphasizes that hard work, discipline and frugality are a result of a person's subscription to the values espoused by the Protestant faith, particularly Calvinism.Weber’s definition of the spirit of capitalism:He defines spirit of capitalism as the ideas and esprit that favor the rational pursuit of economic gain: "We shall nevertheless provisionally use the expression 'spirit of capitalism' for that attitude which, in the pursuit of a calling, strives systematically for profit for its own sake in the manner exemplified by Benjamin Franklin."(2)Protestant:an adherent of any of those Christian bodies that separated from the Church of Rome during the Reformation, especially in the acceptance of the Bible as the sole source of revelation, in justification by faith alone, and in the universal priesthood of all the believers.Quaker:a member of the Religious Society of Friends, a Christian sect founded by George Fox about 1650, whose central belief is the doctrine of the Inner Light. Quakers reject sacraments, ritual, and formal ministry, hold meetings at which any member may speak, and have promoted many causes for social reform.Puritan:a member of a group of English Protestants who in the 1500s and 1600s advocated strict religious discipline along with simplification of the ceremonies and creeds of the Church of England.Mammonism:the pursuit of material wealth and possessions, especially a dedication to riches that is tantamount to devotion.Good works:Good works, or simply works, within Christian theology are a person's (exterior) actions or deeds, contrasting with interior qualities such as grace or faith. The Christian's good works are rooted in Christ, and have cosmic purposes that God ordained before the world began.Calling:A calling, in the religious sense of the word, is a religious vocation (which comes from the Latin for "call") that may be professional or voluntary and, idiosyncratic to different religions, may come from another person, from a divine messenger, or from within oneself.Calvinism:Calvinism is a system of Christian theology advanced by John Calvin, a Protestant Reformer in the sixteenth century, and further developed by his followers, associatesand admirers. The term also refers to the doctrines and practices of the Reformed churches, of which Calvin was an early leader. Calvinism is marked by strong emphasis on the sovereignty of God, the depravity of humankind, and the doctrine of predestinationReformation:A 16th-century movement in Western Europe that aimed at reforming some doctrines and practices of the Roman Catholic Church and resulted in the establishment of the Protestant churches.Methodist:A member of an evangelical Protestant church founded on the principles of John and Charles Wesley in England in the early 1700s and characterized by religious devotion, spiritual perfection and active concern with public morals.Bunyan’s pilgrim:The Pilgrim’s Progress, religious allegory in two parts (1678 and 1684) by the English writer John Bunyan, a symbolic vision of the good man’s pilgrimage through life, at one time second only to the Bible in popularity. Without doubt the most famous Christian allegory still in print, The Pilgrim’s Progress was first published in the reign of Charles II and was completed while its author was imprisoned for offences against the Conventicle Act (which prohibited the conducting of religious services other than that of the Church of England).(3)Beati possidentes: those blessed possessorsDeplacere vix potest:This is a shortened form of a quotation apparently from St. Jerome: Homo mercator vix aut numquam potest Deo placere, "A man who is a merchant can scarcely or never please God."(4)Pharisaically:(chiefly Christianity) in the manner emphasizing the observance of ritual or practice over the meaning; self-righteouslyCritical ReadingI. Understanding the text1.Para. Main idea Outline of the text1 Protestant asceticism restricted consumption and freedacquisition of goods. Part I: Protestant asceticismled to the accumulation of wealth.2 Protestant asceticism limits expenditures.3 While condemning the pursuit of riches for their ownsake, asceticism looks upon the attainment of wealthas a fruit of labor in a calling as a sign of God’s blessing.4The combination of limiting consumption and releasing acquisition results in accumulation of capital. 5Wealth accumulated did not go to land investment, but to capitalistic investment. Part II: Puritan outlook favored a rational bourgeois economic life rather than feudal way of life. 6Puritan outlook favored a rational bourgeois economic life. 7The Puritanical ideals tended to give way under the temptations of wealth Part III: Religion solved the problem of the secularizing effect of wealth by advising people of wealth to give all they can. 8The worldly asceticism of Puritanism also has to struggle with the problem of the secularizing effect of wealth. 9Religious advice given to those who gain all they can and save all they can: they should also give all they can. 10The search for the Kingdom of God passed over into Sober economic virtue. Part IV: The search for religious purpose passed over into the pursuit of money, so long as it took place legally. 11A good conscience simply became the conscience in the acquisition of money, so long as it took place legally. 12A specifically bourgeois economic ethic had grown up. Part V: A bourgeois economic ethicdevelopedin accordance withthe will of God. 13 The bourgeois businessman received a comforting assurance: the unequal distribution of wealth was the will of God, who pursued secret ends unknown to men.2.a, c, b, d, g, f, e3.(1)Purpose: to explain the link between the Protestant asceticism and the capitalistic ethic.Central claim: The intensity of religious asceticism gradually passed over into a bourgeois economic ethic.(2)a. Traditionalistic ethics (Catholic ethics) inhibit the acquisition of wealth.b. For the feudal mind, living a luxurious life to gratify the desire of the flesh is only natural.(3)Puritan outlook favored a rational bourgeois economic life rather than feudal way of life.Puritan outlook, according to Weber, is the strictly regulated, reserved self-control, and conventional ethical conduct that characterize puritans.Puritans did not regularly spend newly acquired wealth on the purchase of land, instead, they spent it in capitalistic investment. Though Puritans shared high esteem for agriculture, they did not want to become landlords or squires, but rational cultivators.Significance: When newly acquired wealth did not seek investment in land, it did not transfer Puritans to feudal habits of life. It then encouraged the development of a rational bourgeois economic life.(4)Two elements forming the English national character: one is an unspoiled naïve joy of life; the other is strictly regulated, reserved self-control, and conventional ethical conductTwo sharply contrasted ways of life in the North American Colonies: one is that of the adventurers, who wanted to set up plantations with the labor of indentured servants, and live as feudal lords; the other is the specifically middle-class outlook of the Puritans.(5)Paradoxical relationship: Religion must necessarily produce both industry and frugality, and these cannot but produce riches. But as riches increase, so will pride, anger and love of the world, and hence the essence of religion will decrease. Solution: Those who gain all they can and save all they can are advised to give all they can, so that they will grow in grace and lay up a treasure in heaven.(6) Robinson Crusoe is the economic man who pursues religion and carries on missionary activities only on the side, whereas Bunyan’s pilgrim ignores economic gain and engaged in the religious or spiritual search as such.(7)Both worlds: one – the economic world or secular world; the other – the spiritual world, or the Kingdom of GodTo make the most of both worlds: to become successful in both realms. And as time went by, a good religious conscience simply became a good conscience in the acquisition of money.(8)Religion gave bourgeois businessmen the comforting assurance that the unequal distribution of the wealth in this world was the will of God, pursued for a secret purpose unknown to men.II. Evaluation and exploration(1) Max Webber defines the spirit of capitalism as the ideas and esprit that favor the rational pursuit of economic gain or profit, to please God according to the Protestant ethics. Indeed, Max Webber grasps the key element in the force that drives the capitalist economy – pursuit of economic gain or profit. He tries to relate this spirit to the protestant ethics (work hard and accumulate wealth to please God). However, the history of capitalist development seems to prove that this pursuit of economic gain might not be totally religiously-based or rational. Instead, it could have been driven simply by the greed in human nature and advancement in technology. Moreover, the definition ignores the economic basis of capitalist development proposed by Karl Marx. While Marx's historical materialism held that all human institutions – including religion – were based on economic foundations, many have seen The Protestant Ethic as turning this theory on its head by implying that a religious movement fostered capitalism, not the other way around. To be fair and balanced, Weber's argument in this text can be understood as an attempt to deepen the understanding of the cultural origins of capitalism, which does not exclude the historical materialist origins described by Marx: modern capitalism emerged from an elective affinity of 'material; and 'ideal' factors.(2) Traditionalistic or Catholic ethics had a negative regard for accumulation of wealth (luxuries) and enjoyment of possessions (because of the doctrines of God/the Bible, eg. "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." (Matthew 19:24)). However, the Protestant ethics freed the acquisition of goods from the inhibitions of traditionalistic/Catholic ethics. It legalized it and looked upon it as directly willed by God. It is not against the rational acquisition, but against the irrational use of wealth.(3) There are many factors that drove the capitalist development and economic prosperity. These include basic human need to survive, traditional virtues for saving money and accumulate wealth, human nature of greed, advancement of technology which increased productivity. And religious belief is only one among many factors behind the formation of the bourgeois economic ethic.(4) a. Assumption: The pursuit of riches for their own sake is bad (Pursuing wealth to please God is good). It’s a valid assumption. However, there could be various reasons to pursue wealth apart from the reason in this assumption, e.g. to survive and have a better life, to pass it to one’s children, to help the poor in the form of charity donation or education improvement, NOT just to please God.b. Assumption: The English way of acquiring wealth to invest in land and maintaining the traditional feudal way of life is backward/conservative/negative. The validitydepends on the perspective and understanding on the way of life. If economic prosperity and materialistic affluence were regarded as a better way of life, the English way would be backward indeed. However, if people’s psychological, spiritual wellbeing and other factors were taken into consideration, the traditional way of life might not be inferior to the capitalist one.(5) The similarity: both are obsessed with work and work very hard to achieve a goal. Difference: The Calvinists work hard for wealth to please God, but the workaholics work hard for success (wealth, control) to please himself (or other people such as bosses, parents etc.); The Calvinists work hard out of their own will (to please God) while workaholics sometimes are compelled to do so due to the environmental pressure (competition) and restraints (system).(6) Marx’s historical materialism assumes that the form of economic organization, or mode of production, gives rise to, or at least directly influences, most other social phenomena – including social relations, political and legal systems, moral codes and ideology. The economic system and these social relations form a base and superstructure. Webber’s theory implies that a religious movement fostered capitalism (superstructure influences even changes the base), not the other way around. It seems that Marx’s theory is more compelling. The base of a society is economy and production, it’s development level or historical stage decides other aspects of social life. And Marx did not neglect the “superstructure” which could either hinder economic development (social changes) or enhance it. Marx’s theory is more dialectical while Webber over emphasizes the super-structure.(7) Religion provides its believers and followers with designated world views, texts(e.g. the Bible), ethics and order of existence by relating humanity to the supernatural (God etc.). It could serve as the unifying force and stabilizer (the opium of people) of a society in certain periods of history, but it’s doctrinal rigidity could also “brainwash” people and hinder the social and economic (scientific) development in other periods. (8) Calvinism, to a greater or lesser extent, has helped to bring about the secularization of society. First of all, Protestant movement (and Calvinism was part of it) could be regarded as a movement popularizing or secularizing the Christian doctrines making it easier to understand to ordinary people who could interpret God’s will according to their own needs. Secondly, as Calvinism stressed on pursuit of wealth to please God (according to Webber), it led to the capitalist prosperity and affluence, which in turn stimulated secularization in western society (more obsessed with money and materialistic success instead of believing in God).Language EnhancementI.

(2)What was condemned as greed and money worshiping, was to accumulatewealth for the purpose of accumulating wealth.(3)This is because according to the teachings in the Old Testament, and also inaccord with the standard of good behavior from the ethical point of view, asceticism would view him as deserving severe criticism if one pursues wealth as the final goal of one’s life.(4)How strong the Protestant asceticism influenced the accumulation of wealth is,unfortunately, not likely to be proved with exact statistics.(5)Methodists everywhere become more and more hard-working and thrifty. As aresult, they increase their wealth. Hence they grow correspondingly in their pride, anger, sexual desire, desire for things pleasing to the eye, and vain craving for honor and applause.2.(1) Some American manufacturers complain that the country manipulates its exchange rate and intentionally undervalues the purchasing power of its currency. (2) China provides them with necessary assistance in conformity with common practices on the basis of humanitarianism.(3) Buffet's idea of innovation is exemplified by his switch from Pepsi to Coke when he bought a big stake of Coca-Cola and joined its board.(4) Once we see that there is no single true morality, we will lose one incentive for trying to impose our values on others.(5) For their part, the rich countries in Europe and America want the developing countries to lower the tariffs they impose on imported industrial goods.(6) Still, the meeting organizers have refused to change the agenda. They are firmly convinced that science should not give way to politics.(7) Despite the admiration we feel for these achievers, we shouldn’t necessarily look upon them as role models.(8) Man is perfectible, or in other words, susceptible of perpetual improvement.(9) The laws apply to everyone irrespective of race, creed, or color.(10) He said that Iran will not succumb to pressure and will continue to safeguard their rights.3.最后,宗教苦行主义还给企业家提供了一种令人安慰的确信,现世财富分配的不平等,来自上帝旨意特别的安排,这些差别,正如有单独、特殊的恩宠一样,自然有其所要达到的秘密目的,而这一目的却不能为人所知道。

赢在起跑线上-英语作文
赢在起跑线上-英语作文Starting early doesn't just mean getting a head in the game. It's about setting the tone for success from the very beginning. Think of it like a race those who start well often have a higher chance of crossing the finish line first.When it comes to learning, starting early can give you a solid foundation. You're not just cramming for a test, but actually understanding and mastering concepts. This builds confidence and momentum that carries you through more challenging topics later on.But it's not just about academics. Starting early also applies to hobbies and interests. If you've always wanted to learn a new skill or instrument, why wait? Getting started now means you'll have more time to master it and enjoy the process.Life is full of competitions, whether it's getting intoa good college, landing a dream job, or just being the best version of yourself. Starting early gives you the advantage of being prepared and ready to take on those challenges.Of course, starting early doesn't guarantee success. But it does give you a better chance at it. So why not give yourself that extra edge?。
英语作文孩子起跑线
英语作文孩子起跑线Children are the future of our society, and it is important to ensure that they have a fair starting line in life. This means providing them with equal access to education, healthcare, and opportunities for personal development.Unfortunately, not all children have the same opportunities from the beginning. Some are born into poverty, while others may face discrimination or other barriers to success. It is essential for society to work towards leveling the playing field for all children, regardless of their background or circumstances.One way to help children get off to a good start is by investing in early childhood education. Research has shown that children who have access to high-quality preschool programs are more likely to succeed in school and in life. By providing all children with the opportunity to attend preschool, we can help them develop the skills andknowledge they need to thrive.In addition to education, it is important to ensurethat children have access to healthcare and nutrition. Children who are healthy and well-nourished are better able to learn and grow. By providing children with access to healthcare and nutritious food, we can help them start off on the right foot and set them up for success in the future.Finally, it is important for parents and caregivers to provide children with love, support, and encouragement. Children who grow up in a nurturing and supportive environment are more likely to develop the confidence and resilience they need to overcome challenges and achievetheir goals.In conclusion, it is crucial to ensure that allchildren have a fair starting line in life. By investing in early childhood education, healthcare, and support for parents and caregivers, we can help children get off to a good start and set them up for success in the future.。

教材名称及版本: 英语江苏省职业学校文化课教材单元序号: Unit 10 Success Starts Early!目录一、单元教学设计说明二、Unit 10 words and Expressions三、Unit 10 Warm-up; Listening and Speaking四、Unit 10 reading and writing五、Unit 10 Language in Use1 Phonetics2 Grammar六、Unit 10 Further Reading单元教学设计说明英语课程标准强调课程要从学生的学习兴趣入手,从生活经验和认知水平出发,并倡导体验,实践, 参与、合作与交流的学习方式和体现以人为本的任务型教学.新课标英语是以任务为基础的语言教学,在教材的设计上,遵循了自然言语、情境真实性、语言形式为交流功能性服务,层层深入阶梯型发展语言能力,引导学生体会文化差异,培养学生白主学习能力。
“ 知识用于行动”,强调“语言应用”,培养“创新,实践能力”。
本单元教学设计尝试体验式教学模式:情境体验阶段—自主体验阶段—对话体验阶段——实践体验阶段。
(一)英语教学主要任务之一是培养学生良好的学习习惯和学习兴趣,培养其交际和运用英语的能力。
教师应尽快从旧教材旧教法的框框中解放出来,转变思想,更新观念。
若继续沿用传统的重语言知识讲授、重译写和语法教学、轻语言运用能力的培养,调动不起大多数学生学习英语的积极性。
其次,应重视学生学习英语兴趣的培养,激发学生的学习兴趣。
新时期英语教学要提倡“乐”的观念。
(二)运用交际手段,培养学生的能力。
绝大部分学生主要是在课堂上学习英语,而在现实生活中缺少语言交际的环境和场所。
在教学中我努力创设和提供情景操练的机会,尽可能地将真实生活搬进课堂,注意在教学中为学生创设语言交际的环境。
同时,还注意到交际是双向性的,是说者和听者双向交流思想的过程。
在这一过程中,双方地位是不断发生变化,互相转换的。
所以,尝试着将上课开始教师问、学生答的free talk模式改为放手让学生互相问答,自由对话。
教材分析本单元的中心话题是“成功”,热身活动的目的是呈现本单元的中心话题,激发学生本单元的兴趣,同时激活或补充相关的背景知识和语言知识,为本单元的学习做好铺垫。
本单元听力由两篇对话组成,对话一祝愿朋友顺利通过驾考,对话二Mike在节目中采访歌手Susan。
本部分旨在培养学生获取语言信息并有效处理言语的习惯和能力。
既要求学生能了解整体信息,也要求学生掌握细节内容。
本单元口语部分Task 1要求学生理解对话范例,熟悉典型句型、正确朗读并进行模仿和操练。
Task2则设定了具体的情景,让学生模拟真实交际,利用所学语言进行创造性表达,从单纯的机械模仿自然过度到灵活运用。
阅读部分通过对两篇课文的学习,帮助学生学习相关的语言知识。
训练学生的阅读技巧,培养阅读能力。
使学生了解成功的定义,分析什么事成功的要素,并结合自身谈谈如何获得成功。
学情分析高一学生思维活跃,有自己的观点和看法,敢于提出不同见解。
他们不满足于教科书上的知识,想获得更多的信息。
在英语学习上,他们不只是想把英语作为一门死记硬背的课程来学,更希望能学到知识性和趣味性兼有的内容,学生储备了一定的词汇和英语知识,能较好地展开话题讨论,各抒己见。
同时,高一新生基本具备一定的电脑操作知识和网上搜索和查阅知识的能力。
这些都为本单元学生运用信息技术进行课堂整合提供了有力的支持。
因此,应结合学生的实际情况,因材施教。
教学方法分析在教学过程中,教师的基本任务是“导”,即起组织和引导的作用。
教师应注意和研究如何启发诱导学生积极主动地参与教学活动。
教师在教学中应指导学生自学,掌握自学方法,培养分析问题和解决问题的能力。
根据上述的分析,本单元采用了“自主,互动,探究”的教学方式,辅助以多媒体,达到较好的教学效果。
