American DreamPart I Pre-reading TaskListen to the recording two or three times and then think over the following questions:1. According to Dr. Hertz, what did the American Dream mean to his grandparents?2. In Dr. Hertz's opinion, who wants people to believe in the American Dream? Why?3. Why does Dr. Hertz say the American Dream is in one's head and in one's pocket?4. What do you understand by the American Dream?The following words in the recording may be new to you:povertyn. 贫穷advertisingn. 广告宣传Part IITextThe American Dream means different things to different people. But for many, particularly immigrants, it means the opportunity to make a better life for themselves. For them the dream is that talent and hard work can take you from log cabin to White House. T ony Trivisonno did not rise quite so high, yet hemanaged to make his own dream come true.TONY TRIVISONNO'S AMERICAN DREAMFrederick C. CrawfordHe came from a rocky farm in Italy, somewhere south of Rome. How or when he got to America, I don't know. But one evening I found him standing in the driveway, behind my garage. He was about five-foot-seven or eight, and thin."I mow your lawn," he said. It was hard to comprehend his broken English.I asked him his name. "Tony Trivisonno," he replied. "I mow your lawn." I told Tony that I couldn't afford a gardener."I mow your lawn," he said again, then walked away. I went into my house unhappy. Yes, these Depression days were difficult, but how could I to turn away a person who had come to me for help?When I got home from work the next evening, the lawn had been mowed, the garden weeded, and the walks swept. I asked my wife what had happened."A man got the lawn mower out of the garage and worked on the yard," she answered. "I assumed you had hired him."I told her of my experience the night before. We thought it strange that he had not asked for pay.The next two days were busy, and I forgot about Tony. We were trying to rebuild our business and bring some of our workers back to the plants. But on Friday, returning home a little early, I saw Tony again, behind the garage. I complimented him on the work he had done."I mow your lawn," he said.I managed to work out some kind of small weekly pay, and each day Tony cleaned up the yard and took care of any littletasks. My wife said he was very helpful whenever there were any heavy objects to lift or things to fix.Summer passed into fall, and winds blew cold. "Mr. Craw, snow pretty soon," Tony told me one evening. "When winter come, you give me job clearing snow at the factory."Well, what do you do with such determination and hope? Of course, Tony got his job at the factory.The months passed. I asked the personnel department for a report. They said T ony was a very good worker.One day I found Tony at our meeting place behind the garage. "I want to be 'prentice," he said.We had a pretty good apprentice school that trained laborers. But I doubted whether Tony had the capacity to read blueprints and micrometers or do precision work. Still, how could I turn him down?Tony took a cut in pay to become an apprentice. Months later, I got a report that he had graduated as a skilled grinder. He had learned to read the millionths of an inch on the micrometer and to shape the grinding wheel with an instrument set with a diamond. My wife and I were delighted with what we felt was a satisfying end of the story.A year or two passed, and again I found T ony in his usual waiting place. We talked about his work, and I asked him what he wanted."Mr. Craw," he said, "I like a buy a house." On the edge of town, he had found a house for sale, a complete wreck.I called on a banker friend. "Do you ever loan money on character?" I asked. "No," he said. "We can't afford to. No sale.""Now, wait a minute," I replied. "Here is a hard-working man, a man of character, I can promise you that. He's got a good job.You're not getting a damn thing from your lot. It will stay there for years. At least he will pay your interest."Reluctantly, the banker wrote a mortgage for $2,000 and gave Tony the house with no down payment. Tony was delighted. From then on, it was interesting to see that any discarded odds and ends around our place — a broken screen, a bit of hardware, boards from packing — Tony would gather and take home.After about two years, I found Tony in our familiar meeting spot. He seemed to stand a little straighter. He was heavier. He had a look of confidence."Mr. Craw, I sell my house!" he said with pride. "I got $8,000."I was amazed. "But, Tony, where are you going to live withouta house?""Mr. Craw, I buy a farm."We sat down and talked. T ony told me that to own a farm was his dream. He loved the tomatoes and peppers and all the other vegetables important to his Italian diet. He had sent for his wife and son and daughter back in Italy. He had hunted around the edge of town until he found a small, abandoned piece of property with a house and shed. Now he was moving his family to his farm.Sometime later. T ony arrived on a Sunday afternoon, neatly dressed. He had another Italian man with him. He told me that he had persuaded his childhood friend to move to America. Tony was sponsoring him. With an amused look in his eye, he told me that when they approached the little farm he now operated, his friend stood in amazement and said, "Tony, you are a millionaire!"Then, during the war, a message came from my company. Tony had passed away.I asked our people to check on his family and see thateverything was properly handled. They found the farm green with vegetables, the little house livable and homey. There was a tractor and a good car in the yard. The children were educated and working, and T ony didn't owe a cent.After he passed away, I thought more and more about Tony's career. He grew in stature in my mind. In the end, I think he stood as tall, and as proud, as the greatest American industrialists.They had all reached their success by the same route and by the same values and principles: vision, determination, self-control, optimism, self-respect and, above all, integrity.Tony did not begin on the bottom rung of the ladder. He began in the basement. Tony's affairs were tiny; the greatest industrialists' affairs were giant. But, after all, the balance sheets were exactly the same. The only difference was where you put the decimal point.Tony Trivisonno came to America seeking the American Dream. But he didn't find it — he created it for himself. All he had were 24 precious hours a day, and he wasted none of them.

In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people’s digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy.Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value. In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You’ll hear these participants’ stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid.The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate (培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude (独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that words for your particular circumstances.1. What is the book aimed at?A. Teaching critical thinking skills.B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle.C. Solving philosophical problems.D. Promoting the use of a digital device.2.

Lecture 11.What is literature?(1) extensive thinking● a pice of news? a letter? diary? the teaching mateial? the books in the reading list?(the reason of your choice)(2)definition①Literaturature, in its broadest sense, is any kind of writing.②More restrictively, it is writing as an art form, or any writing deemed to haveartistic or intellectual value, often due to deploying language in ways that differ from ordinary usage. (give example)③Etymologically, literature has to do with letters.●Its Latin root literatura (derived itself from littera: letter or handwrting) was usedto refect to all written accounts, though contemporary definitions extend the term to include texts that are spoken or sung (oral literature).(3)the change of the definition of “literature”①In Western Europe prior to the eighteenth century, literature as a termindicated all books and writing.② A more restricted sense of the term emerged during the Romantic period,in which it began to demarcate “imaginative” literature.③“the best expression of the best thought reduced to wrting”——Encyclopedia Britain Eleventh Edition (1910—11)④The formalist definition is that the history of “literature” foregroundspoetic effects; it is the “literariness” or “poeticity” of literature that disdinguishes it from ordinary speech or other kinds of writing.(4)major forms①fictionFiction is the classification for any story created in the imagination, rather than based strictly on history or fact.②dramaIn the most general sense, Western drama refers to any work designed to be represented on a stage by actors.③essayAn essay is, generally, a piece of writing that gives the author’s own argument.④poetryPoetry is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language to evooke meaning.2.The reasons why we learn literatureIt is useful to look at some of the things that literature does.●Literature is something that reflects society, makes us think about ourselves andsociety, allows us to enjoy language and beauty, it can be didactic, and it reflects on “the human condition”.●It both reflects ideology and changes ideology, just like it follows genericconventions as well as changing them.●It has social and political effects. Literature is the creation of another world, aworld that we can only see through reading literature.3. What books have Ss read? (ask Ss)The Making of England1.The BritonsThe English people are of a mixed blood. The early inhabitants in the island now we call England were Britons, a tribe of Celts. From the Britons the island got its name of Britain, the land of Britons.2. The Roman Conquest(1) In 55 B.C., Briain was invaded by Julius Caesar, the Roman conqueror, who had then just occupied Gaul.(2) Britain was not completely subjugated to the Roman Empire until 78 A.D. Withthe Roman Conquest the Roman mode of life came across to Britain also.●Roman roads●Christianity(3)At the beginning of the fifth century, the Roman Empire was in the process of declining. And in 410 A.D., all the Roman troops went back to the continent and never returned.3.The Anglo-Saxon/English Conquest(1) At the same time Britain was invaded by swarms of pirate. They were three tribes from Northern Europe: the Angles, Saxons and Jutes.●The Jutes occupied Kent, in the southeastern corner of the island.●The Saxons took southern part and established some small kingdoms. (Wessex,Essex and Sussex)●The Angles spread over the east midland. (East Anglia)(2)By the 7th century these seven small kingdoms were combined into a united kingdom called England, or, the land of Angles.The three tribes had mixed into a whole people called English.●The Angles are the most numerous of the three.●The three dialects spoken by them naturally grew into a single language calledAnglo-Saxon, or Old English.4.The Social Condition of the Anglo-Saxons(1)Before the Anglo-Saxons settled down in Britain, they still lived in the tribal society. Each group of families united by kinship fixed its home in a separate village.●There was then what Engles calls “the military democracy grown out of thegens”.(2)After the conquest of Britain, the social constitution of the Anglo-Saxonswent through some rapid changes. The Anglo-Saxon period witnessed a transition from tribal society to feudalism.5.Anglo-Saxon Religious Belief and Its Influence(1)The Anglo-Saxon were heathen people. Theybelieved in old mythology of Northern Europe. Northern mythology has left its mark upon the English language.●The days f the week in English are named after the Northern gods.●Odin: Wednesday●Thor: Thursday●Frigga: Friday●Tiu: Tuesday(2)The Anglo-Saxons were Christianized in the seventh century.●Monasteries were built all over the country.●The earliest English books were written down by monks who could read andwrite.6.The Norman Conquest(1)The Danish InvasionAbout 787, the English began to be troubled by bands of Danish vikings.King Alfred the Great succeeded in driving the Danes off with force. Laying down his sword, King Alfred set himself to the task of encouraging education and literature. He translated some works from Latin himself.After his death, the Danes occupied the country in 1013, and held it for 30 years. The England was once more governed by another foreign ruler.(2)The Norman ConquestThe French-speaking Normans under Duke William came in 1066. William was crowned as King of England. It was called the Norman Conquest.King—Baron—KnightThe Norman Conquest marks the establishment of feudalism in England.(3)The Influence of the Norman Conquest on the English Language①After the Norman Conquest●the Norman lords spoke French, whle their English subjects retained their oldtougue.●The scholar wrote in Latin and the courtier in French. The was almost no writtenliterature in English for a time.●Chronicles and religious poems were in Latin.●Romances, the prominent kind of literature in the Anglo-Norman period, were atfirst all in French.②By the end of e fourteenth century, when Normans and Englishintermingled,●English was once more the dominent speech in the country.●The English became something different from the old Anglo-Saxon. Thestructure of the language remained English, and the common words were almost all retained, though often somewhat modified in form. But many terms employed by the Normans were adopted into the English language. eg. “calf”-“veal”,“swine”- “pork”, “sheep”- “mutton”7.

The Making of a Success Story1 IKEA is the world's largest furniture retailer, and man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad, one of the world's most successful entrepreneurs . Born in Sweden in 1926 , Kamprad was a natural businessman. As a child , he enjoyed selling things and made small profits from selling matches ,seeds ,and pencils in his community .When Kamprad was 17, his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades .Naturally he used it to start up a business-IKEA.2 IKEA's name comes from Kamprad's initials (I.K.)and the place where he grew up (`E` and `A`). Today IKEA is known for its modern , minimalist furniture , but it was not a furniture company in the beginning .Rather, IKEA sold all kind of miscellaneous goods ,Kamprad's ware included anything that he could sell for profits at discounted prices ,including watches ,pens and stockings .3 IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947. The furniture was all designed and made by manufacturers near Kamprad's home. Initial sales were very encouraging , so Kamprad expanded the product line . Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in 1951.4 In 1953 IKEA opend its first showroom in Almhult ,Sweden. IKEA is known today for its spacious stores with furniture in attractive settings ,but in the early 1950s ,people ordered from catalogues ,Thus response to the first showroom was overwhelming:people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it . This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive .By 1955, IKEA was designing all its own furniture .5 In 1956 Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport . Kamprad was inspired .The man had given him a great idea :flat packaging . Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers .IKEA tried it and sales soared . The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves ,but over time ,evem this grew into an advantage for IKEA . Nowadays ,IKEA is often seen as having connotations of self-sufficiency .This image has done wonders for the company ,leading to better sales and continued expansion.6 Today there are over 200 stores in 32 countries .Amazingly ,Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA a privately-help company .In 2004 he was named the world's richest man , He currently lives in Switzerland and is retied from the day-to-day operations of IKEA.

英国文学史Part one: Early and Medieval English LiteratureChapter 1 The Making of England1. The early inhabitants in the island now we call England were Britons, a tribe of Gelts.2. In 55 ., Britain was invaded by Julius Caesar.The Roman occupation lasted for about 400 years.It was also during the Roman role that Christianity was introduced to Britain.And in 410 ., all the Roman troops went back to the continent and never returned.3. The English ConquestAt the same time Britain was invaded by swarms of pirates海盗. They were three tribes from Northern Europe: the Angles, Saxons and Jutes.And by the 7th century these small kingdoms were combined into a United Kingdom called England, or, the land of Angles.And the three dialects spoken by them naturally grew into a single language called Anglo-Saxon, or Old English.4. The Social Condition of the Anglo-SaxonTherefore, the Anglo-Saxon period witnessed a transition from tribal society to feudalism.5. Anglo-Saxon Religious Belief and Its InfluenceThe Anglo-Saxons were Christianized in the seventh century.Chapter 2 Beowulf1. Anglo-Saxon PoetryBut there is one long poem of over 3,000 lines. It is Beowulf, the national epic of the English people. Grendel is a monster described in Beowulf.3. Analysis of Its ContentBeowulf is a folk lengend brought to England by Anglo-Saxons from their continental homes. It had been passed from mouth to mouth for hundreds of years before it was written down in the tenth century.4. Features of BeowulfThe most striking feature in its poetical form is the use of alliteration, metaphors and understatements.Chapter 3 Feudal England1 The Norman Conquest2.

The Canterbury TalesThe Canterbury Tales is Chaucer’s masterpiece and one of the monumental works in English literature.6. His LanguageChaucer’s language, now called Middle English, is vivid and exact. Chaucer’s contribution to English poetry lies chiefly in the fact that he introduced from France the rhymed stanza of various types, especially the rhymed couplet of 5 accents in iambic meter the “the heroic couplet” to English poetry, instead of the old Anglo-Saxon alliterative verse.The spoken English of the time consisted of several dialects, and Chaucer did much in making dialect of London the standard for the modern English speech.Part Two: The English RenaissanceChapter 1 Old England in Transition1.

Summary of Chapter One 1

Summary of Chapter One 1

Chapter One: The Beginning Period of English LiteratureⅠThe Old English Period1. Historical BackgroundEngland has a long history of civilization. But historians are still uncertain about who first came to the island. The ancient Greeks first mentioned Britain and described it as a remote and legendary place. From the recorded history we know that the land was occupied by the Celts before the Romans invaded it.The native Celtic Britons suffered repetitive invasions by foreign forces. From 55 B.C. to 407 A.D., the British Isles was under the rule of the Roman Empire and the Celts were subjugated to the rule of Rome for nearly 400 years. It was during the Roman occupation that London was founded. The Romans, however, did not gain full control of Britain, and they made little influence on the cultural life of the Celts. By the 4th century, the Roman Empire was weakening. In 410, the Romans abandoned the island.England was soon invaded by three Germanic tribes: the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. We often refer to them as the Anglo-Saxons for convenience. This is the beginning of the Anglo-Saxon period in British history (449-1100). By 550, the Anglo-Saxons were firmly established. The English language became the dominant language in England. No matter how uncomfortable the native Celts felt about the invasions, these foreign elements played vital roles in the creation of English history and literature.They became the new masters of the British Isles and were the ancestors of the present English people.It was around 500 A.D. the founder of the kingdom of Wessex, that the Celtic King Arthur, a legendary figure, is said to have acquired his fame.The Anglo-Saxons admired greatly the wisdom and courage of their war leaders. In Anglo-Saxon society, the king was essentially a warrior, whose duty was mainly to lead his tribe to fight against any possible foreign or hostile tribes. The Anglo-Saxons, who were largely pagans or heathens when they came to the island, gradually accepted Christianity. The conversion of the Anglo-Saxons to Christianity changed their intellectual outlook. Christianity offered them some values that were more consistent and solid than their pagan beliefs. It also enabled them to learn book knowledge in monasteries or schools from the Scriptures and the classical writings of Virgil and the ancient Greeks. They traveled long distances to Rome on pilgrimages, and these experiences enriched their understanding of the world, broadened and deepened their mental and spiritual powers.2. Beowulf: an English EpicOf the earliest heroic poetry, the most important poem now preserved is Beowulf. It probably existed in oral from as early as the 6th century as historical events related in the poem indicated. It was probably written down in the 8th century though the manuscript of the poem preserved today dates back to the 10th century and was written in the Wessex dialect. The poem contained altogether 3,193 lines and the story in it is based on partly historical and partly legendary materials, brought over by theAnglo-Saxons from their original homes.Though traces of Christian values can be clearly seen in Beowulf, it is pervaded with paganism. In the noble figure of Beowulf, pagan heroism and fatalism are mingled with Christian qualities.Like Homer’s poetry, Beowulf sings of the exciting adventures of a great legendary hero whose physical strength demonstrates his high spiritual qualities, i.e., his resolution to serve his country and kinsfolk, his true courage, courteous conduct, and his love of honor. In the poem Beowulf is strong, courageous, and selfless, ready to risk his life in order to rid his people of evil monsters.Beowulf is more than a fairy story of heroes fighting against monsters. The poem unfolds a picture of an early Danish society, of its public life, its customs, rituals and cultural activities. It recaptures the values, beliefs and longings of the Anglo-Saxon people before they came to England. Beowulf is not simply a courageous warrior. He is a wise ruler, and a brave fighter.Beowulf is a pagan poem concerned with the heroic ideal of kings and kingship in North Europe. Battle is a way of life at that time. Strength and courage are basic virtues for both kings and his warriors. The king should protect his people and show gentleness and generosity to his warriors. And in return, his warriors should show absolute obedience and loyalty to the king. By praising Beowulf’s wisdom, strength and courage, and by glorifying his death for his people, the poem presents the heroic ideal of a king and his good relations to his warriors and people. Present-day readers are often charmed by its depiction of a remote world, a world of legend, fantasies and primitive beauty.Like many other Anglo-Saxon poems, Beowulf was written in long lines. The lines do not rhyme but alliteration was extensively used. The most striking feature is its use of “word pictures”.。

Chapter One: The making of England英格兰的形成
I.The Britons
The early inhabitants in the island now we call England were Britons, a tribe of Celts.
最早生活在现在被我们称为英格兰的岛上的居民是不列颠人,他们是一个凯尔特人部落。

II.The Roman Conquest
In 55B.C.,Britain was invade by Julius Caesar, the Roman conqueror.公元前55年,罗马征服者裘里斯凯撒入侵英国。

It was also during the Roman Rule that Christianity was introduced to Britain.罗马统治时期,基督教传入不列颠。

At the beginning of 5th century, the Roman Empire was in the process of declining. In 410A.D.,all the Roman troops went back to the continent and never returned.
5世纪出,罗马帝国开始走向衰败。

公元410年,所有的罗马军队都撤回到欧洲大陆,再也没有回来。

III.The English Conquest
At the same time Britain was invade by swarms of pirates. They were three tribes from Northern Europe: the Angles, Saxons and Jutes.
在罗马部队撤回欧洲大陆的同时,不列颠遭受到成群海盗的入侵。

他们是来自北欧的三个部族:盎格鲁人、撒克逊人和朱特人。

IV.The Social Condition of the Anglo-Saxons
The Anglo-Saxon period witnessed a transition from tribal society to feudalism.
V.Anglo-Saxon Religious Belief and Its Influence
The Anglo-Saxons were heathen people. They believed in old mythology of Northern Europe.盎格罗撒克逊人是异教徒。

他们信仰北欧神话。

【个人总结:盎格罗撒克逊人来自北欧,所以信仰北欧神话。

他们不信上帝,是异教徒。

所以第二章的贝尔武甫是民族史诗,与上帝无关。

】。
