Some students do not adjust successfully. In the ., where almost 70% of high school graduates enter college, only a minority of these actually graduate. Elsewhere, with fewer attending college, higher percentages may graduate.College has many social attractions, some of which can be distractions. Sports, concerts, parties, and dormitory bull sessions (闲聊) can be very time consuming. The temptation to stay up too late at night or sleep too late in the morning is always present, so self-discipline is an important lesson to learn. In addition many students have part-time jobs, especially in the . where most students have cars and are expected to help their parents pay for tuition or college housing.Students and their parents may disagree on how much time should be devoted to studying. But they usually agree that in addition to some learning and possibly some fun, one of the outcomes of a college education should be a good job. Students who have already worked at part-time jobs have an advantage in the job market, but this is not the only way to improve one’s chances. Many colleges have internships or co-op programs to give students practical experience in their future careers. Others have special classes where students can practice their application forms and letters, résumés, personal statements, and employment interviews. Most colleges have career counselors and either career days or career fairs where students can meet potential employers and learn about career alternatives. Recently many jobs have been listedon the Internet, making it easier to match students with suitable opportunities and more important for students to acquire computer skills.College can be an exciting and rewarding experience, but it can also be very stressful. Making their own decisions can be very difficult for young people accustomed to parental supervision. When students make bad decisions, such as drinking too much beer or procrastinating in their studies, they are not always mature enough to admit or correct their mistakes. But having the freedom to make these mistakes, and the obligation to face their consequences, is part of the learning process. When older people look back on their student years, they usually view this as a happy period of life, even if it did not always feel that way at the time.Parents, teachers, advisors, and counselors can help students move successfully from high school to college and from college to careers. But in the last analysis students must do most of this for themselves, with more help than we may realize from their friends and classmates. College students learn as much outside as inside the classroom, and most of this is not learned from adult authority figures. The peer group and the youthful popular culture are increasingly strong influences on today’s students. So parents and other potential role models should try to be aware of this, even if they don’t always appreciate the latest trends in casual clothing or pop music. College is a time of change, and the parents can learn almost as much from this as the students can. They too were once students, just as today’s students will one day be parents.Part One PREPARATION1. Talking about Your High-School ClassmatesSample:I graduated from __________ High School, a key high school in __________ Province. Among the 50 students in my class, 48 are enrolled in universities, mostly national key universities. Three went to Peking University and two to Tsinghua University. The three who went to Peking University are majoring in Law, Philosophy and Physics respectively and the two who went to Tsinghua University are majoring in Computer Science and Information Science. In this university alone there are five of us, doing different majors; three of my former classmates are enrolled in normal universities, one in Beijing Normal University, one in South China Normal University and one in East China Normal University.2. Talking about Your College Life—Expectations vs RealitySample:1) Campus:Expectations—large and beautiful campus with green grass everywhere and a large sports ground, where you can always see students busy and full of vitality.Reality—Just as what I dreamed of – a huge campus with magnificent modern buildings, green trees, blooming flowers and a river flowing around.—Contrary to what I expected, it’s an old campus, large though, with grey buildings like huge match-boxes, little grass, and a few big trees.2) Classroom buildings:Expectations—large new classrooms with modern facilities.Reality—well equipped teaching buildings with multi-media facilities.—large old buildings, with a few classrooms well equipped with modern facilities.3) Dormitories:Expectations—crowded with little space for everyone.Reality—true, but we may choose to live in a double room if we can afford the rent.4) Students’ cafeterias:Expectations—spacious dining halls, full of hungry students.Reality—true, and there is a great variety of food that will definitely appease our appetite.5) Library:Expectations—a large collection of books, journals and periodicals; spacious and well-lit reading rooms.Reality—true except that the reading rooms are not large enough and students have to get there early in order to find a seat.6) Classmates:Expectations—friendly and speaking different dialects.Reality—true.7) Teachers:Expectations—old, gray-haired and wearing thick glasses; strict and formally dressed.Reality—not true because many teachers are very young, especially English teachers, many teachers do not wear glasses and many teachers wear casual clothes.3. Happy College DaysSample1:The most impressive experience for me is running for the chair of the Student Union. I used to be very timid. That experience, however, helped me gain much confidence. For the first time, I made a public speech and realized, all at once, that I had the potential to organize. One thing that shouldn’t be left out is thatmy friends and classmates gave me enormous support. I did appreciate what they had done for me.Sample 2:I believe that the New Year’s Eve of 2004 can never be erased from my mind. Thousands of students gathered in the auditorium waiting for the new year. We held the lighted candles in our hands, our hearts beating with the rhythm of the music. Minutes went by. When the big clock finally turned straight upward, screams and laughter resonated in the hall. We hugged and said New Year’s greetings to each other. It was such a thrilling moment.4.

Unit 7 College LifeThe Commencement Speech You'll Never HearWe the faculty take no pride in our educational achievement with you. We have prepared you for a world that does not exist, indeed, that cannot exist. You have spent four years supposing that failure leaves no record. You have learned at Brown that when your work goes poorly, the painless solution is to drop out. But starting now, in the world to which you go, failure marks you. Confronting difficulty by quitting leaves you changed. Outside Brown, quitters are no heroes.With us you could argue about why your errors were not errors, why mediocre work really was excellent, why you could take pride in routine and slipshod presentation. Most of you, after all, can look back on honor grades for most of what you have done. So, here grades can have meant little in distinguishing the excellent from the ordinary. But tomorrow, in the world to which you go, you had better not defend errors but learn from them. You will be ill-advised to demand praise for what does not deserve it, and abuse those who do not give it.For years we created an altogether forgiving world, in which whatever slight effort you gave was all that was demanded. When you did not keep appointments, we made new ones. When your work came in beyond the deadline, we pretended not to care.Worse still, when you were boring, we acted as if you were saying something important. When you were garrulous and talked to hear yourselves talk, we listened as if it mattered. When you tossed on our desks writing upon which you had not labored, we read it and even responded, as though you earned a response. When you were dull, we pretended you were smart. When you were predictable, unimaginative and routine, we listened as if to new and wonderful things. When you demanded free lunch, we served it. And all this why?Despite your fantasies, it was not even that we wanted to be liked by you. It was that we did not want to be bothered, and the easy way out was pretense: smiles and easy Bs.It is conventional to quote in addresses such as these. Let me quote someone you've never heard of: Professor Carter A. Daniel, Rutgers University:"College has spoiled you by reading papers that don't deserve to be read, listening to comments that don't deserve a hearing, paying attention even to the lazy, ill-informed and rude. We had to do it, for the sake of education. But nobody will ever do it again. College has deprived you of adequate preparation for the last 50 years. It has failed youby being easy, free, forgiving, attentive, comfortable, interesting, unchallenging fun. Good luck tomorrow.That is why, on this commencement day, we have nothing in which to take much pride.Oh, yes, there is one more thing. Try not to act toward your co-workers and bosses as you have acted toward us. I mean, when they give you what you want but have not earned, don't abuse them, insult them, act out with them your parlous relationships with your parents. This too we have tolerated. It was, as I said, not to be liked. Few professors actually care whether or not they are liked by peer-paralyzed adolescents, fools so shallow as to imagine professors care not about education but about popularity. It was, again, to be rid of you. So go, unlearn the lies we taught you. To life!你将永远不会听到的毕业演讲1 我们这些教师对于在你们身上取得的教育成就一点都不感到自豪。

The Food and Wine Club5.OpenListening 3Well, I think first of all for first-time students, coming and living on campus in dormitories can provide a certain level of secur ity as well as convenience because it’s close to campus facilities and commuting without a car can be quite an experience, especially when you have to commute long distances. Also meals are usually provided on campus so students can devote more time to their studies, rather than to housekeeping. But, of course, students should also be aware that they’ll have to obey the rules and regulations relating to student conduct. This is part of the contract with the university for living on campus.Another option is living off campus in apartments. Like living in dormitories, living in an apartment requires little or no maintenance mainly because that is usually handled by the owner or someone else. Also, if you live off campus, there might be a great amount of flexibility in choosing roommates that you might not have when living on campus. But you should be aware that tenants may be responsible for furnishing their own apartments.Well, of course, the choice is up to you, but be careful to review both the advantages and disadvantages of living on and off campus. Good luck.Answers11.which of the following is mentioned as an advantage of living on campus?2.What should students remember about on-campus living?3.Which of the following is mentioned as an advantage off living off campus?4.What should students living off campus be prepared to do?AACB2TFTFFListening 4The following is a conversation between one woman, Grace, and two men, Martin and Curtis.Grace: Martin, what do you remember most about our college days?Martin: What do I remember most?Grace: Curtis’s hair; it was down to his waist.Curtis: I remember how Grace looked. She always had a flower painted on her face. Do you remember that?Martin: Oh, yes.Grace: Now wait. Let’s not forget Martin’s air-conditioned blue jeans. I never saw anybody with more holes in their jeans.Martin: They’re a classic now. I still have those blue jeans!Grace: You still have them? I don’t believe it. That’s incredible!Martin: And I still wear them, too.Curtis: You know, I was just thinking about the most important thing that happened in college.Martin: The most important thing? Do you mean the time we got arrested?Curtis: Mmm.Grace: Yeah. You know, that’s my best memory, going on that peace demonstration. You know, somehow getting arrested for something you believe in isn’t scary at all. Curtis: No, it isn’t at all. But it did help that there were 500 other students getting arrested along with us.Martin: That’s true.Curtis: That was a great day, though.Grace: Hey, you all remember our last day of college?Curtis: Graduation? What’s to remember? None of us went to graduation.Martin: Do you regret now, after all these years, that we skipped the ceremony? Grace: Not me. I don’t think we missed anything that day.Curtis: No, noting at all. And that picnic that the three of us had by the stream, remember?Grace: That was great.Curtis: Drinking wine, playing the guitar, singing. Oh, that was worth more to me than any graduation ceremony.Martin: That was the best graduation ceremony there could have been.Curtis: Mm-hmm.Answers1FTTTF21.had a flower painted on her face2.wore air-conditioned blue jeans/jeans with lot of holes in them3.has his hair down to his waistPart 4Further listeningListening 1Justin is twenty, and studying away from home in the north of England. He never writes home, but often calls his parents on Sunday evenings.Mother: Hello. Bedford 21698.Justin: Hello, Mom. It’s me, Justin.Mother: Hello, love. How are you?Justin: I’m fine, but I’m really tired.Mother: Oh—what have you been doing?Justin: Well, we’ve just started exams, so I’ve been staying up late, erm, it was three o’clock last night. Yeah, I’ve been studying really hard.Mother: Of course, it’s exam time. When did they start?Justin: Last Thursday. We had our first one on Thursday morning. It was terrible. I don’t want to talk about it.Mother: OK. What else have you been doing?Justin: Not a lot. I’ve been working too hard. Sometimes I go round to Lucinda’s place and we study together.Mother: Lucinda? I haven’t heard about her before. Who is she?Justin: You know, Lucinda, I’m sure I’ve told you about her. She’s doing the same courses as I am. I’ve known her for ages. We often help each other with work. Sometimes we go to the pub or co ok a meal together. Today, we’ve been testing each other on economics and marketing.

First, they must make themselves attend class. Many college instructors do not take roll, and many others don’t penalize students for not going to class. A student who would rather sit in the bar than go to class has the option to do so. A student must be mature enough to realize that he needs to go to class. Second, college student have to motivate themselves to do their assignments. Many students are away from home, so the old enforcers, their parents, aren’t there to ask if their reading is finished. No college teacher hounds a student for his homework. He simply puts down a zero and says nothin g. It’s up to the student to get the work done. Finally, college student are responsible for taking the required exams. A student who misses a test can’t expect a professor even to mention it. It is totally his responsibility to arrange to make up the exam. Only students mature enough to accept these responsibilities are ready for college.Answers1.what is the passage mainly about?2.Which of the following is relevant to the maturity of college students?3.How would the professor respond if the student didn’t do his assignment?4.Who ids the expected audience for this passage?CBADListening 3Man: So you were studying for how long—let me see—for four years altogether? Can you tell me a little about that course?Woman: Well, it was a very difficult, very tough course. I did English for the entire four years, so by the end, I was quite good. As for the Business Correspondence part, which I did in the second year and third year, it was really mostly English too. I also did one year of French, in the fourth year, learning to meet people, or answer the telephone. Then there were three years of Secretarial Practice, starting in the second year; and three years of Shorthand, though I never got very good at it. And, well, I suppose the other subjects just fitted around that: Accounting in year three and four, Economics in the first and second and Bookkeeping in the third… no, no, in the second year, before we started Accounting.AnswersYear 1 2 3 4English √√√√Business Corr…√√French √Secretarial…√√√Shorthand √√√Accounting √√Economic √√Bookkeeping √Listening 4The Bully AsleepBy John Walsh One afternoon, when grassyScents through the classroom crept,Bill Craddock laid his headDown on his desk, and slept.The children came round him:Jimmy, Roger, and Jane;They lifted his head timidlyAnd let it sink again.“Look, he’s gone sound asleep, Miss,”Said Jimmy Adair;“He stays up all the night, you see.His mother doesn’t care.”“Stand away from him, children.”Miss Andrews stopped to see.“Yes, he’s asleep; go onWith your writing, and let him be.”“Now’s a good chance!” whispered Jimmy;And he snatched Bill’s pen and hid it.“Kick him under the desk hard;He won’t know who did it.”“Fill all his pockets with rubbish—Paper, apple-cores, chalk.”So they plotted, while JaneSat wide-eyed at their talk.Not caring, not hearing,Bill Craddock he slept on;Lips parted, eyes closed—Their cruelty gone.“Stick him with pins!” mut tered Roger.“Ink down his neck!” said Jim.But Jane, tearful and foolish,Wanted to comfort him.- Answer:laidsleptliftedsinksoundstays upcarelet him bechancehidKickFillwide-eyedpartedcrueltyStickcomfort。

Since most of the embroideries are made of silk, embroidery is closely connected with silkworm raising and silk reeling and weaving. As early as about 5,000 years ago, our ancestors began to raise silkworms. According to records, the oldest embroidered product dates from the Shang Dynasty. Embroideries in that period symbolized social status. It was not until later on, as the national economy developed, that embroidery entered the lives of the common people. In the Han Dynasty, the art of embroidery was widespread throughout the country and many embroidered pieces that have been discovered date back to that period. At the same time, embroidery was more specialized. There were various patterns such as the Sun, the Moon, stars, mountains, dragons, phoenixes, tigers, flowers as well as clouds.

First, they must make themselves attend class. Many college instructors do not take roll, and many others don’t penalize students for not going to class. A student who would rather sit in the bar than go to class has the option to do so. A student must be mature enough to realize that he needs to go to class. Second, college student have to motivate themselves to do their assignments. Many students are away from home, so the old enforcers, their parents, aren’t there to ask if their reading is fin ished. No college teacher hounds a student for his homework. He simply puts down a zero and says nothin g. It’s up to the student to get the work done. Finally, college student are responsible for taking the required exams. A student who misses a test can’t expect a professor even to mention it. It is totally his responsibility to arrange to make up the exam. Only students mature enough to accept these responsibilities are ready for college.Answers1.what is the passage mainly about?2.Which of the following is relevant to the maturity of college students?3.How would the professor respond if the student didn’t do his assignment?4.Who ids the expected audience for this passage?CBADListening 3Man: So you were studying for how long—let me see—for four years altogether? Can you tell me a little about that course?Woman: Well, it was a very difficult, very tough course. I did English for the entire four years, so by the end, I was quite good. As for the Business Correspondence part, which I did in the second year and third year, it was really mostly English too. I also did one year of French, in the fourth year, learning to meet people, or answer the telephone. Then there were three years of Secretarial Practice, starting in the second year; and three years of Shorthand, though I never got very good at it. And, well, I suppose the other subjects just fitted around that: Accounting in year three and four, Economics in the first and second and Bookkeeping in the third… no, no, in the second year, before we started Accounting.AnswersYear 1 2 3 4English √√√√Business Corr…√√French √Secretarial…√√√Shorthand √√√Accounting √√Economic √√Bookkeeping √Listening 4The Bully AsleepBy John Walsh One afternoon, when grassyScents through the classroom crept,Bill Craddock laid his headDown on his desk, and slept.The children came round him:Jimmy, Roger, and Jane;They lifted his head timidlyAnd let it sink again.“Look, he’s gone sound asleep, Miss,”Said Jimmy Adair;“He stays up all the night, you see.His mother doesn’t care.”“Stand away from him, children.”Miss Andrews stopped to see.“Yes, he’s asleep; go onWith your writing, and let him be.”“Now’s a good chance!” whispered Jimmy;And he snatched Bill’s pen and hid it.“Kick him under the desk hard;He won’t know who did it.”“Fill all his pockets with rubbish—Paper, apple-cores, chalk.”So they plotted, while JaneSat wide-eyed at their talk.Not caring, not hearing,Bill Craddock he slept on;Lips parted, eyes closed—Their cruelty gone.“Stick him with pins!” muttered Roger.“Ink down his neck!” said Jim.But Jane, tearful and foolish,Wanted to comfort him.Answer: laid slept lifted sink sound stays up carelet him be chance hidKickFill wide-eyed parted cruelty Stick comfort。
