Discussion1) Americans have a saying “Time is money.” How do you understand it?2) In America, there’s another saying about time: “We are slaves to nothing but the clock.” How do you understand this saying?VII. Text Analysis: Main Idea and Devices for Developing ItCentral topic:Time-conscious Americans (“Time is o ne of the two elements that Americans save carefully, the other being labor” Para. 1)Structure Analysis:Americans save time carefully. (Para. 1)Americans’ attitude towards time and how they try to save time in daily life and in business (Paras. 2-7)Time is a precious source.(Para. 2)Americans save time in their daily life.(Para.3)Americans save time in doing business. (Para.4)Americans produce labor-saving devices in order to save time.(Paras.5-7)It is taken as a sign of skillfulness or being competent to solve a problem or fulfill a job successfully with speed in the US. (Para.8)Stucture of the Text:VI. Reading Sills:1.Deduction organizationGeneral statement: “Time is one of the two elements that Americans save carefully, the other being la bor.”Specific statements:1) (Para. 3) In the US everyone seems to be in a rush in daily life, e.g. shopping, eating out, walking, driving a car, etc.2) (Para. 4) Americans start talking business directly without opening exchanges.3) (Paras. 5-7) Americans work hard at the task of saving time by producing a steady flow of labor-saving devices, e.g. faxes, phone calls, emails, etc.Conclusion : (Para.8) It is taken as a sign of skillfulness or beingcompetent to solve a problem or fulfill a job with speed in the US.2. Exemplification (Illustration)Typical sentences:1) (Para. 3) “City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going…Racing through daytime meals is part of life …You also find drivers will be abrupt and people will pus h past you.”2) (Para. 4) “Many new arrivals to the States will miss the opening exchanges of a business call, for example. They will miss the ritual interaction… They may miss leisurely business chats…”3. Comparison & contrastIn order to make it clear that Americans are time-conscious, the text compares the different conventions of other countries (“new arrivals”) with the Americans’ attitude towards time.1) (Para. 4) “Many new arrivals…will miss the ritual interaction that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee that may be a convention in their own country… Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings…”2) (Para. 6) “In some countries no major business is conducted without eye contact, requiring a face-to-face conversation. In America, too, a final agreement will be normally signed in person.However, people are meeting increasingly on television screens, …”3) (Para. 8) “Some new arrivals will come from cultures where it is considered impolite to work too quickly… I n the US, however, it is taken as a sign of skillfulness or being competent to solve a problem or fulfill a job successfully, with speed.”4. Cause & effectTypical sentences:1) (Para. 3) “…Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time high ly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain appropriate point.”2) (Para. 4) “…Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly. Time is, therefore, always ticking in our in ner ear.”3) (Para. 5) “Consequently, we work hard at the task of saving time…We, therefore, save most personal visiting for after-work hours or for social weekend gatherings.”4) (Para. 7) “… This is due partly to the fact that the telephone service is superb here, whereas the postal service is less efficient.”5) (Para. 8) “Unless a certain amount of time is allowed to elapse, it seems in their eyes as if the task being considered were insignificant, not worthy of proper respect. Assignments are, consequently, felt to be given added weight by the passage of time. ”Specific details: ① teachers and pupils, specific meetings, discuss the protection of environment②City planners, environmental problems, into consideration③Factories, reduce pollution, at a high costReason: bad air and water pollution affect everyone, cities to survive, businesses to make a profitOther topics⑴ Time is a precious resource.⑵ Computers are of great use to our daily life⑶ English is becoming more important.VII.Homework1.
