新编英语教程 4 Unit 12 背景知识
Unit 12 University DaysI. Background Information:University is always the most active place in the society, and university life is one of the most unforgettable things in one's life. University students are becoming older and older, while their hearts are becoming younger and younger. Now days, students eat with spoons instead of chopsticks; now days, students watch cartoon movies and read cartoon books more than any other kind of movies or books; students talk a lot about cartoon characters. Just like a student of China language department who do not know Li Bai; an English major who does not know Shakespeare; a physics major student who doesn't know Einstein, it is almost incredible if a university student doesn't know xiao wan zi, the lion king etc. we do not talk much about poetry or essays; we do not think much about physics; we do not argue about political questions anymore. Instead, we talk about cartoon movie; we act like cartoon characters; we are influenced a lot by those cartoons. Cartoon movies are a prevailing topic among students. We are changing university into kinder garden.Although there are many cinemas in the campus, many students prefer to use the computer to watch movie, especially bachelors. There are a lot of movies on the Internet. But not all rooms have computers. When there is a movie played in one room, lots of people go to the room. We cheer for the good luck of the heroes; we feel pity for the separation of the happy couples; we could not help beating the computer when we see misfortune falls upon them. Much of our spare time is spent on computer movies.Any time you enter a dormitory, you will certainly hear the sound of guns, pistols, bombs and the scream of dying people. You may think you entered a battlefield by mistake. Do not be afraid, because that is just a kind of video game. It seems that since September 11th terrorist attack, counter strike has become very popular. Everyone is talking about counter terrorism. The dormitory is changing into a battlefield. After all, we are students and our main job is to study. Classroom is the best place to study, especially near the exam. Every desk is placed a book or a notebook. But at other time, we usually do part-time jobs out of school, play games and so on. Near the exam, everyone feels that it is hard to pass the exam. So the classroom, the libraries are full of students. It seems that the population in the campus increased a lot.Our foreign language department is called a small UN, because the main languages in the world are all found here. English is with no doubt the most popular language in university. There are also Japanese, French, Germany and so on. In the morning, you can hearall kinds of language in the campus. It seems that you are in a UN conference and all the students are diplomats.It seems that we have never been tired of talking, especially talking before sleep. Students talk about everything; from study to games, from political leader to classmates and friends. Some people think that it is useless and sometimes harmful to talkall the times. But I think it is very useful. At least we can communicate with one other frequently.University life is an important stage in one's life. When you think of it in the future, you will not regret going to university.II. Pictures:。

英语必修4译林牛津Unit 1精品教案（背景信息）U1 第三部分教案Background information（牛津译林版必修4）●Section 2 Background informationI. An introduction to Advertising1. Definition:American Marketing Association (AMA) defines advertising as “the non-personal communication of information usually paid for and usually persuasive in nature about products, services or ideas by identified sponsors through the various media.” Today, with the development of the technology and the diversity of the mass media, advertising has influenced us pervasively in our daily life. However, whatever the promotive strategies advertising takes, language is the main carrier of message all along, as The Language of Advertising, by Vesterg ard & Schroder, says, “Advertising takes many forms, but in most of the m language is of crucial importance.” Advertising language is a style of immediate impact and rapid persuasion. The point of an advertisement is to persuade you of the merits of a particular product or service, in order that you will take out some of your money.2. Advertising Components: According to the definition of the advertising, most of the advertisements should have the following components:(1) AdvertiserThe advertiser is the sender of information and all the advertising activities should be consistent with the purpose and willingness of the advertiser. Therefore, the advertiser is the main body of advertising, namely, every advertisement should have its specific owner of the advertising information. The specific owner should be a recognizable group, including corporation, enterprise, government, organization and individual. There are three significances of an advertiser (both for the advertiser themselves, and for the public): firstly, it’s easy for the target audience to recognize the company and the products of it, which will promote the propagandas andthe sale of its products; secondly, it will establish a high reputation for the group, enterpr ise, or the individual in order that the consumer will trust the brand; finally, it will prevent the advertiser from counterfeiting and deceiving by legal supervision.(2) A certain amount of money paidThe advertising fees a re paid by the advertiser no matter it’s operated by itself or other agency. Because advertising is a kind of marketing action, an advertiser has to pay for its advertisement. There are quite a few people who consider that too much advertising fee will inevitably raise the price and cost of the product, and thereby will influence the sale of the product. However, this conclusion is a one-sided view. Advertising can bring you a huge profit by reasonable planning a nd proper operation.(3) Advertising InformationAdvertising information is the principal content s an advertisement wants to disseminate. Advertising is a serious of planning action, so the information of adve rtising should be aimed at the certain target market and consumers, and should avoid aimlessness. The dissemination of information should be accurate, definite, recognizable and moderate in length. An effe ctive advertisement involves not only “what to say”, but also ‘how to say”.(4) Advertising MediaMedia are the means of the dissemination of advertising, including newspaper, magazine, broadcast, TV program, billboard and mail. The newspaper, magazine, broadcast and TV are called the four main media of advertising. Moreover, any kind of objects or tools can be a medium for the advertisement, such as airplane, train, bus, building, neon light, movie, package, exhibition, and etc. Different kinds of media have different features, disseminating area, target audience and speed.II．经典英文广告麦斯威尔咖啡 Good to the last drop 滴滴香浓，意犹未尽。

II. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
Abraham H. Maslow developed a five-level hierarchy of human needs. A major point of this hierarchy is that each need level must be generally satisfied before the person attempts to fill those needs on the next level. The first two needs are considered primary, or lower-order needs; the remaining three are secondary, or higher-order needs.

Choice Theory
By 1980, Dr. William Glasser began to form the Choice Theory: The reason why so many people are unhappy in their relationships. He explains that, unlike all other living creatures, only human beings are genetically driven by the need for power. We try to satisfy our need for power by using external control psychology—literally trying to force people to do what we want them to do. This struggle has led to the symptoms such as pain and fatigue. Choice Theory is aimed at proactively creating mental health through happy human relationships.

Choice Theory
For instance, when someone is diagnosed with depression, they are choosing to depress (they are "depressing") so that they can gain the upper hand (it’s a form of getting bad attention). However, when choosing to proactively control their own thoughts and actions in a mature way, thus gaining the respect and admiration of the people they love and care for, they will return to a very happy state and not need to use the external control mechanism of "depressing“. The same works for paining, panicking, angering, crazying, etc.
