For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Stress isn’t always bad. In small doses, it can help you perform under pressure and motivate you to do your best. But when you’re constantly running in emergency mode, your mind and body pay the price.Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your balance in some way. When you sense danger--- whether i t’s real or ima gined--- the body’s defenses kick into high gear in a rapid, automatic process known as the “fight-or-flight” reaction,or the stress response.The stress response is the body’s way of protecting you. When working properly, it helps you stay focused, energetic, and alert. In emergency situations, stress can save your life – giving you extra strength to defend yourself, for example, or spurring you to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident.The stress response also helps you rise to meet challenges. Stress is what keeps you on your toes during a presentation at work, sharpens your concentration when you’re attempting the game-winning free throw, or drives yo u to study for an exam when you’d rather be watching TV.But beyond a certain point, stress stops being helpful and starts causing major damage to your health, your mood, your productivity, your relationships, and your quality of life.Effects of chronic stressThe body doesn’t distinguish between physical and psychological threats. When you’re stressed over a busy schedule, an argument with a friend, a traffic jam, or a mountain of bills, your body reacts just as strongly as if you were facing a life-or-death situation. If you have a lot of responsibilities and worries, your emergency stress response ma y be “on” most of the time. The more your body’s stress system is activated, the easier it is to trip and the harder it is to shut off.Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems. Chronic stress disrupts nearly every system in your body. It can raise blood pressure, suppress the immune system, increase the risk of heart attack and stroke, contribute to infertility, and speed up the aging process. Long-term stress can even rewire the brain, leaving you more vulnerable to anxiety and depression.Many health problems are caused or exacerbated by stress, including:Pain of any kindHeart diseaseDigestive problemsSleep problemsDepressionObesityAutoimmune diseasesSkin conditions, such as eczemaTopic Preview1.

You are expected to do it after class and check the answers on your own.It’s common sense that if you are extremely unhappy in your job, and you come home and dump on your spouse about it every day, it could start to wear on the relationship.So is the opposite true, then 1) If you’re happy in your job,can your marriage actually improve According to long-term research conducted by The Love Doctor Terri Orbuch, the answer is “yes”.Orbuch, who is author of “5 Simple Steps to Take Your Marriage from Good to Great,” has been following and observing hundreds of married couples for nearly a quarter century in order to find out what makes marriages happy, strong and long lasting. She has found that there is a definite positive spillover 2) from work to marriage.Here are her four suggestions on putting this into practice:Suggestion 1: 3) Seek support and help from your spouse. If you’re having a problem at work, solicit advice from your spouse. Research shows that the need for assistance is one of the three basic needs of all people in relationships (intimacy and reassurance of one’s value are the other two). Seeking solutions to work-related problems together strengthens the marital bond and feeling that “we’re in this together.” Moreover, because your spouse knows you so well, he or she is likely to come up with valuable insights and feedback.Suggestion 2: 4) “Grow” in your job. A recent large-scale study in Harvard Business Review found that the No. 1 factor5)that keeps employees happy and motivated in their jobs is “making progress.”Workers who are fulfilled and stimulated during the workday tend to be happier individuals, and much of that happiness gets transferred to their spouse at the end of the day.Suggestion 3: 6) Practice behaviors that relieve stress. Numerous studies have documenteda link between workplace stress and poor health. The two most common workplace stressors are7) feeling as if you haven’t been heard or supported, and 8) negative interpersonal work relationships. Find ways to express your needs, ask for assistance and manage conflicts at your job. Good health is sexy and attractive to a spouse, and so is an upbeat attitude.Suggestion 4: 9) Share your work life. Orbuch’s study found that the happiest marriages are ones in which partners feel their spouse regularly discloses information about his or her life, even details from work that might be deemed “boring.” The bonus: 10) Work life becomes interwoven with home life, promoting a satisfying feeling of work-life balance, which makes you happier overall.SourceAppendix A Supplementary Reading Unit 6 Psychological HealthUseful ExpressionsAdapted from。

The first recall, on November 2, 2009, was to correct a possible incursion of an incorrect or out-of-placefront driver’s side floor mat into the foot pedal well, which can cause pedal entrapment. The second recall, on January 21, 2010, was begun after some crashes were shown not to have been caused by floor mat incursion. This latter defect was identified as a possible mechanical sticking of the accelerator pedal causing unintended acceleration, referred to as Sticking Accelerator Pedal by Toyota. The original action was initiated by Toyota in their Defect Information Report, dated October 5, 2009, amended January 27, 2010. Following the floor mat and accelerator pedal recalls, Toyota also issued a separate recall for hybrid anti-lock brake software in February 2010.As of January 28, 2010, Toyota had announced recalls of approximately million vehicles for the pedal entrapment/floor matproblem, and an additional million vehicles for the accelerator pedal problem. Approximately million vehicles are subject to both. The next day, Toyota widened the recall to include million vehicles in Europe and 75,000 in China. By then, the worldwide total number of cars recalled by Toyota stood at 9 million. The number of alleged victims and reported problems sharply increased following the recall announcements, which were heavily covered by U.S. media, although the causes of individual reports were difficult to verify. Government officials, automotive experts, Toyota, and members of the general public contested the scope of the sudden acceleration issue and the veracity of victim and problem reports. The recalls further led to NHTSA and Toyota investigations, along with multiple lawsuits.Topic Preview1. Read the passage on page X and learn the useful expressions related to business crisis.2. Log on line and search for information concerning specific cases about business and economic crises.Lesson OneLead inTask 1 Describing the PictureTask 2 Reflecting on the Readingquestions.1.According to the passage, what did Toyota fail to notice as it grew to become theworld’s largest automaker?Answer: Toyota failed to adjust its corporate structure to accommodate its altered scale and have overlooked fundamental principles that used to underpin its business.2．Where does Toyota manufacture its accelerator pedals?Answer: Toyota accelerator pedals are produced both by Denso of Japan and CTS of Elkhart, Indiana, US.3.What are the reasons that the two Toyota accelerator suppliers produced acceleratorpedals of different quality?Answer: The Denso and CTS mechanisms use different wiring harnesses. In other words, Toyota, the master of communization, neglected to ensure that identical parts from two suppliers were, in fact, identical.4.Why do problems in Toyota get lost and solutions get delayed when Toyota is managedin the present way?Answer: Toyota employs a chimney managerial approach in which complaints from customers in U.S. would travel first to sales headquarters in Japan, and then to manufacturing for implementation. Only after that would it find its way back to the U.S.5.According to the passage, what should Toyota do in order to deal with this businesscrisis?Answer:It needs to modernize its corporate structure, revisit the basic elements of its product development system, andreconsider the impact of its aggressive cost-cutting.appropriate meaning in the right-hand column.1.get stuck A.to make something such as a business, organization etc. work more simply and effectively2.hearing B.to describe a rate of increase which becomes quicker and quicker as the thing that increases becomes larger3.accelerate C.to be pushed into or through and stay there4.corporation D.an official meeting that is held to collect the facts about an event or a problem5.automaker E.speed up6.woe F. a large company or group of companies that is controlled together as a single organization7.streamline G.great problems or troubles8.exponentially H.car manufacturerKey: 1-C 2-D 3-E 4-F 5-H 6-G 7-A 8-BAudio StudioWord Bank1.recall n.an occasion when someone orders the return ofproducts made by a company 召回2.circuit n. a closed system of wires or pipes through which electricity or liquid can flow 电路3.pedal n. a small part of a machine or object which ispushed down with the foot to operate or move themachine or object 踏板4.electrical adj.related to electricity 电的，有关电的5.claim n. a statement that something is true or is a fact,although other people might not believe it 声明，主张6.handle v. to deal with, have responsibility for, or be incharge of 处理，操作7.approach n. a way of considering or doing something ⽅法，途径/doc/7aef1bc34b7302768e9951e79b89680203d86bb7.html plaint n.when someone says that something is wrong or notsatisfactory 诉苦，抱怨，牢骚9.have an impact on to have an influence on sth. 影响到10.Congress美国国会11.Akio Toyoda⼈名，丰⽥汽车集团现任总裁12.Jim Lentz⼈名Listen to the audio clip, and choose the right answers to the questions.1.What is the audio clip mainly about?A) Toyota recalls around the worldB) Toyota recall hearings in US congressC) The development of Toyota Corporation.2.What might be the cause for the car to accelerate suddenly?A) A short circuit.B) Floor Mats.C) Stuck gas pedal.Teaching Tips1.This task is designed to train students to focus on important details.2.Ask students to read the statements quickly and prepare for the listening.3.Play the audio clip again and draw students’ attention t o the detailed information.4.Allow students some time to complete the statements.5.Ask students to repeat the sentences and memorize the key phrases or sentencestructures.Repeat the sentences after you have completed them./doc/7aef1bc34b7302768e9951e79b89680203d86bb7.html Congress is looking at some of the problems that Toyota’s been having withvehicle recalls and examining how the carmaker has responded to the situation.2.An engineering firm that was hired by Toyota to check out the claim found the samething.3.Akio Toyoda, the president of the entire Toyota corporation, has announced newsafety measures that the company plans to take from here on out.ScriptUS Congress is looking at some of the problems that Toyota’s been having with vehicle recalls and examining how the carmaker has responded to the situation. You’ve heard all about this: millions of vehicles affected by issues with floor mats and gas pedals that might get stuck. US Congress is holding a few days of hearings to get some information about it. Yesterday, they heard from one expert who said it could be an electrical issue. He says there’s a possibility that a short circuit might cause a car to suddenly accelerate. An engineering firm that was hired by Toyota to check out the claim found the same thing. But Toyota’s U.S. sales chief, Jim Lentz, says the electrical system isn’t the problem.When asked about how the company handled customer complaints, Lentz said that Toyota focused more on technical issues rather than looking at the possibility of accelerator pedals that get stuck. He called that approach a mistake and apologized for it. In fact, Toyota has repeatedly apologized for the safety issues, and it’s working to repairStudioWord Bank1.plunge v.to (cause someone or something to) move or fallsuddenly and often a long way forward, down or intosomething 跳进，陷⼊2.congressional a.belonging or related to the US Congress ⼤会的，国会的3.accelerator n.the pedal (= part that you push with your foot) in avehicle that makes it go faster 加速器4.sticking a.made of or covered with a substance that stays fixedto any surface it touches 粘的5.multiple a.very many of the same type, or of different types 多样的，多重的6.analyst n.someone whose job is to study or examine something indetail 分析家，分析者7.reassure v.to comfort someone and stop them from worrying 使……安⼼，打消……的疑虑8.boardroom n. a room where the people who control a company ororganization meet （董事会）会议室9.remarkably adv.surprisingly 显著地10.third-quarter n.July, August and September of a year 第三季度11.out of sight beyond one’s range of vision 视线看不见的地⽅12.press conference a meeting at which a person or organization makes apublic statement and reporters can ask questions 记者招待会Complete the following statements with the phrases given below.

Toyota stocks plunged ending the week dow n 12 percent. The automaker’s worldwide woes are drawing alarm from Japan’s Economy, Trade and Industry Ministry.The scale of this recall is large, says Masayuki Naoshima, Toyota must deal with this issue properly and act to maintain consumer trust. In the US, lawmakers on Capitol Hill called for congressional hearings to investigate what went wrong with the auto giant’s accelerator pedals. And reports to US investigators: cars sped out of control. The driver’s reporting th e gas pedal’s stick ing.Toyota says the problem is with this part of the accelerator made by supplier CTS in Indiana, though CTS says the accelerators were built to Toyota’s specifications. As part of Toyota’s global expansion plan, the automaker streamlined production, so one part will fit multiple car models around the world.That cuts costs, says industry analyst Tatsuya Mizuno. But if there is a problem with one part, he says, it will spread to many models and an enormous number of vehicles, and in this case millions of Toyota cars from Europe, the US and China, exponentially damaging the brand. While Toyota has made a number of statements to reassure consumers and indicate it’s working on the problem, Toyota’s president Akio Toyoda has not made any public ap pearance to protect his company’s reputation. In Japan, where CEO apologies at press conferences are expected, Toyota’s boardroom has been remarkably silent to the surprise of industry watchers.---Yes.---Do you think that they need to deliver a strong message?---I think so, I think so, immediately.Not just overseas consumers, say many on the streets of Tokyo, but for Japan’s economy so deeply tied with the high quality of its automobiles.For the Japanese economy, it could be a serious problem, says Yuichi Kida, China and Korea are right behind us.SourceSpeaking WorkshopExpressions & Structures to UseTask 1 Summarizinglearned in the video clip.

As a noted polymath, Franklin was a leading author andprinter, satirist, political theorist, politician, scientist, inventor, civicactivist, statesman, soldier, and diplomat. He helped draw up theDeclaration of Independence and the Constitution; he played a major rolein the American Revolution and negotiated French support for thecolonists; as a scientist he is remembered particularly for his research in Unit OverviewModern life is full of hassles, deadlines, frustrations, and demands. For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems, not only physically but also psychologically. In this unit, students will be introduced to the importance of psychological health and ways to achieve it through listening, watching and reading. Various activities will inspire the students to talk about ways to cope with stress and to be happy by using the words and expressions in this unit. And finally, they will conduct a poll on “Stress on Campus”with their peers.In this unit, you will●get to know ways to deal with stress that comes fromstressful situations, different life periods anddifficult people through listening, watching and reading●talk about the impact of stress on your physical andespecially mental health, and the ways to deal with stress through guided activities“Stress on Campus” with your peers●conduct a poll on●pick up useful words and expressionsto reflect on your own learning and comment on that●learnof your peers●learn to think independently, critically and creatively Background InformationModern life is full of hassles, deadlines, frustrations, and demands. For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Stress isn’t always bad. In small doses, it can help you perform under pressure and motivate you to do your best. But when you’re constantly running in emergency mode, your mind and body pay the price.Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your balance in some way. When you sense danger--- whether i t’s real or ima gined--- the body’s defenses kick into high gear in a rapid, automatic process knownas the “fight-or-flight” reaction, or the stress response.The stress response is the body’s way of protecting you. When working properly, it helps you stay focused, energetic, and alert. In emergency situations, stress can save your life – giving you extra strength to defend yourself, for example, or spurring you to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident.The stress response also helps you rise to meet challenges. Stress is what keeps you on your toes during a presentation at work, sharpens your concentration when you’re attempting the game-winning free throw, or drives you to study for an exam when you’d rather be watching TV.But beyond a certain point, stress stops being helpful and starts causing major damage to your health, your mood, your productivity, your relationships, and your quality of life.Effects of chronic stressThe body doesn’t distinguish between physical and psychological threats. When you’re stressed over a busy schedule, an argument with a friend, a traffic jam, or a mountain of bills, your body reacts just as strongly as if you were facing a life-or-death situation. If you have a lot of responsibilities and worries, your emergency stress response ma y be “on” most of the time. The more your body’s stresssystem is activated, the easier it is to trip and the harder it is to shut off.Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems. Chronic stress disrupts nearly every system in your body. It can raise blood pressure, suppress the immune system, increase the risk of heart attack and stroke, contribute to infertility, and speed up the aging process. Long-term stress can even rewire the brain, leaving you more vulnerable to anxiety and depression.Many health problems are caused or exacerbated by stress, including:●Pain of any kind●Heart disease●Digestive problems●Sleep problems●Depression●Obesity●Autoimmune diseases●Skin conditions, such as eczemaTopic Preview1.

You are expected to do it after class and check the answers on your own.It’s common sense that if you are extremely unhappy in your job, and you come home and dump on your spouse about it every day, it could start to wear on the relationship.So is the opposite true, then? 1) If you’re happy in your job,can your marriage actually improve? According to long-term research conducted by The Love Doctor Terri Orbuch, the answer is “yes”.Orbuch, who is author of “5 Simple Steps to Take Your Marriage from Good to Great,” has been following and observing hundreds of married couples for nearly a quarter century inorder to find out what makes marriages happy, strong and long lasting. She has found that there is a definite positive spillover 2) from work to marriage.Here are her four suggestions on putting this into practice: Suggestion 1: 3) Seek support and help from your spouse. If you’re having a problem at work, solicit advice from your spouse. Research shows that the need for assistance is one of the three basic needs of all people in relationships (intimacy and reassurance of one’s value are the other two). Seeking solutions to work-related problems together strengthens the ma rital bond and feeling that “we’re in this together.” Moreover, because your spouse knows you so well, he or she is likely to come up with valuable insights and feedback.Suggestion 2: 4) “Grow” in your job. A recent large-scale study in Harvard Business Review found that the No. 1 factor 5)that keeps employees happy and motivated in their jobs is “making progress.” Workers who are fulfilled and stimulated during the workday tend to be happier individuals, and much of that happiness gets transferred to their spouse at the end of the day.Suggestion 3: 6) Practice behaviors that relieve stress. Numerous studies have documented a link between workplacestress and poor health. The two most common workplace stressors are 7) feeling as if you haven’t been heard or supported, and 8) negative interpersonal work relationships. Find ways to express your needs, ask for assistance and manage conflicts at your job. Good health is sexy and attractive to a spouse, and so is an upbeat attitude.Suggestion 4: 9) Share your work life. Orbuch’s study found that the happiest marriages are ones in which partners feel their spouse regularly discloses information about his or her life, even details from work that might be deemed “boring.” The bonus: 10) Work life becomes interwoven with home life, promoting a satisfying feeling of work-life balance, which makes you happier overall.SourceAppendix A Supplementary Reading Unit 6 Psychological Health Useful Expressions。

UNIT1Home ListeningWhere have all the GentlemenGone?What factors have contributed to the demise of chivalry？Men tend to blame the decline on women’s tolerance of men’s trifling behavior. Females, on the other hand, blame the death of chivalry on the egocentric nature and 1)laziness of men. Our society has become increasingly 2) self-centered so people no longer abide by old school home training of manners and politeness.Both genders are correct, but whose actions started the 3) snowball effect? It is the classic chicken or the egg argument.Perhaps with the Women’s Rights Movement, women opened the door for men to become lazy with their courteousness. Maybe women started acting more independent so men figured, “Why bother?”Or, perhaps society in general is in a state of moral 4) bankruptcy. Marriages are dissolving at an all time high, people are no longer valuing monogamy. As trust in men 5) diminishes, women’s attitudes toward men shift and the way we 6) interact with them has changed—and not for the positive.Or, perhaps men are not settling down as often or as quickly, so there is a sense of desperation among the female race. Desperation leads to feeling the need to settle or 7) compete for men. Likewise, women have become more tolerant and/or numb to the waywardness of men.So, which is it? The chicken or the egg? Did men’s behaviors and attitudes shift first or did women’s? We may never 8) figure the answer out.However, I think that 9) chivalry is about RESPECT. Chivalry and respect go hand in hand. Respect and character go hand in hand. And, 10) character and morality go hand in hand. If we can work on our morals we will work on our level of respect for each other. It just starts with everyone as individuals. Unit2Home ListeningStereotypes: Being Content withMyselfBy Kamaal MajeedWhy don’t you act black?Since my middle school years, I’vebeen asked this question more thanany other. It seems to me that toomany people have what society 1)programs into their brains, whatshould be expected of me, a blackperson, before ever interactingwith me. But I believe in beingwho I am, not who others want meto be.On my first day of high school,going into math class, two of myclassmates pointed and laughed atme. I initially thought my fly wasopen, or that something was 2)stuck in my teeth. But as I took myseat, I heard one of the studentswhisper, why is a black persontaking honors? So my fly wasn’topen. An 3) honors-level class hadsimply been joined by a studentwhose skin was an unsettlingshade of brown.Many people think that myclothes should be big enough forme to live in, or expect me to listenexclusively to black music. Inseventh grade, a group of my peers4) fixed their cold stares on myoutfit. Cargo shorts and a plain,fitting T-shirt.

My wardrobe still6) consists solely of clothes thatare appropriate to my proportions.My music library spans from rockto pop to techno, and almost 7)everything in between. When itcomes to choosing my friends, Iam still 8) colorblind. I continue todo my best work in school in orderto reach my goals. And yet, when Ilook in the mirror, I still see skin ofthat same shade of brown.My skin color 9) has donenothing to change my personality,and my personality has donenothing to change my skin color.I believe in being myself. Ibelieve that I — not any stereotype—should 10) define who I amand what actions I take in life.Unit3Home ListeningIndian Film Industry, Bollywood,Steps Up Fight Against PiracyThe Indian Hindi languagemovie industry - popularly knownas Bollywood - is stepping up itsfight against film piracy both athome and overseas.

Starbucks’ solution is to select high-profile locations on the 1) busiest streets, where stores are sure to seduce the see-and-be-seen set.As Starbucks 2) launches an aggressive expansion in China, a coffee frontier steeped in nearly 5,000 years of tea. The goal: to build hip hang-outs that tap into a new taste for China’s 3) emerging middle class.Starbucks China doesn’t plan any advertising, 4) promotions, or other marketing strategies, aside from sponsoring an on-line coffee club and the occasional office-tower coffee tasting. Instead, the company is counting on selecting such high-visibility, high-traffic cafe locations that they market themselves. Its main advertising 5) medium is the store itself.Yet Starbucks faces an uphill battle. Local media reported that 70% of people they surveyed would rather not see the chain in Beijing’s 6) Forbidden City. And even for middle-class Chinese, Starbucks is a 7) barely affordable luxury. While retailers say a top marketing weapon in urban China is to charge more for public 8) consumption. That’s because Chinese customers have different priorities than their American yuppie counterparts. Guys 40 years old are not coffee drinkers, 9) but if the environment is good and the coffee is not bad, they’ll come back.

Famous Quote— Benjamin FranklinUnit OverviewModern life is full of hassles, deadlines, frustrations, and demands. For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems, not only physically but also psychologically. In this unit, students will be introduced to the importance of psychological health and ways to achieve it through listening, watching and reading. Various activities will inspire the students to talk about ways to cope with stress and to be happy by using the words and expressions in this unit. And finally, they will conduct a poll on “Stress on Campus ” with their peers.In this unit, you willget to know ways to deal with stress that comes from stressful situations, different life periods and difficult people through listening, watching and readingtalk about the impact of stress on your physical and especially mental health, and the ways to deal with stress through guided activitiesconduct a poll on “Stress on Campus ” with your peerspick up useful words and expressionslearn to reflect on your own learning and comment on that of your peers learn to think independently, critically and creatively Background InformationModern life is full of hassles, deadlines, frustrations, and demands. For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Stress isn’t always bad. In small doses, it can help you perform under pressure and motivate you to do your best. But when you’re consta ntly running in emergency mode, your mind and body pay the price.Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your balance in some way. When you sense danger--- whether i t’s real or imagined--- the body’s defenses kick into high gear in a rapid, automatic process known as the “fight -or-flight” reaction, or the stress response.The stress response is the body’s way of protecting you. When working properly, it helps you stay focused, energetic, and alert. In emergency situations, stress can save your life – giving you extra strength to defend yourself, for example, or spurring you to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident.Benjamin Franklin (1706 — 1790): One of the Founding Fathersof the United States. As a noted polymath, Franklin was a leadingauthor and printer, satirist, political theorist, politician,scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman, soldier, and diplomat. He helped draw up the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution; he played a major role in the American Revolution and negotiated French support for the colonists; as The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself.The stress response also helps you rise to meet challenges. Stress is what keeps you on your toes during a presentation at work, sharpens your concentration when you’re attempting the game-winning free throw, or drives you to study for an exam when you’d rather be watching TV.But beyond a certain point, stress stops being helpful and starts causing major damage to your health, your mood, your productivity, your relationships, and your quality of life.Effects of chronic stressThe body doesn’t distinguish between physical and psychological threats. When you’re stressed over a busy schedule, an ar gument with a friend, a traffic jam, or a mountain of bills, your body reacts just as strongly as if you were facing a life-or-death situation. If you have a lot of responsibilities and worries, your emergency stress response may be “on” most of the time. The more your body’s stress system is activated, the easier it is to trip and the harder it is to shut off.Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems. Chronic stress disrupts nearly every system in your body. It can raise blood pressure, suppress the immune system, increase the risk of heart attack and stroke, contribute to infertility, and speed up the aging process. Long-term stress can even rewire the brain, leaving you more vulnerable to anxiety and depression.Many health problems are caused or exacerbated by stress, including: Pain of any kindHeart diseaseDigestive problemsSleep problemsDepressionObesityAutoimmune diseasesSkin conditions, such as eczemaTopic Preview1.

You are expected to do it after class and check the answers on your own.It’s common sense that if you are extremely unhappy in your job, and you come home and dump on your spouse about it every day, it could start to wear on the relationship.So is the opposite true, then? 1) If you’re happy in your job,can your marriage actually improve? According to long-term research conducted by The Love Doctor Terri Orbuch, the answer is “yes”.Orbuch, who is author of “5 Simple Steps to Take Your Marriage from Good to Great,” has been following and observing hundreds of married couples for nearly a quarter century in order to find out what makes marriages happy, strong and long lasting. She has found that there is a definite positive spillover 2) from work to marriage.Here are her four suggestions on putting this into practice:Suggestion 1: 3) Seek support and help from your spouse. If you’re having a problem at work, solicit advice from your spouse. Research shows that the need for assistance is one of the three basic needs of all people in relationships (intimacy and reassurance of one’s value are the other two). Seeking solutions to work-related problems together strengthens the ma rital bond and feeling that “we’re in this together.” Moreover, because your spouse knows yo u so well, he or she is likely to come up with valuable insights and feedback.Suggestion 2: 4) “Grow” in your job. A recent large-scale study in Harvard Business Review found that the No. 1 factor5)that keeps employees happy and motivated in their jobs is “making progress.” Workers who are fulfilled and stimulated during the workday tend to be happier individuals, and much of that happiness gets transferred to their spouse at the end of the day.Suggestion 3: 6) Practice behaviors that relieve stress.Numerous studies have documented a link between workplace stress and poor health. The two most common workplace stressors are 7) feeling as if you haven’t been heard or supported, and 8) negative interpersonal work relationships. Find ways to express your needs, ask for assistance and manage conflicts at your job. Good health is sexy and attractive to a spouse, and so is an upbeat attitude.Suggestion 4: 9) Share your work life. Orbuch’s study found that the happiest marriages are ones in which partners feel their spouse regularly discloses information about his or her life, even details from work that might be deemed “boring.” The bonus: 10) Work life becomes interwoven with home life, promoting a satisfying feeling of work-life balance, which makes you happier overall.

Men were strong, women were weak; men were the breadwinners, women were the homem akers; men wererational, women were emotional. In accordance with these beliefs, the men filled the leadership positions in society, as well as the majority of positions that required courage, clear-thinking and intellect. Women took on the nurturing, caring or supportive jobs such as nurse, teacher, assistant. However, modern society has greatly challenged these perceived differences between men and women.These days gender roles are becoming less clear. Women are moving into themale-dominated occupations and proving that they can be equally successful in these fields. Moreover, some men are taking on the homemaker role and finding that it suits them. In som e cultures, for example the Naxi culture of southwestern China, the women have always been the head of the household and responsible for both work and finance.So, are men and wom en really all that different? From the changing perspectives towards this question, it would seem that socialization plays a large role in de fining masculinity and femininity in any given time period and in any given culture. In other words, perhaps men and women are not that different after all.2.Culture plays an important role in business.Culture plays an important role in business. In different cultures there are different ideas about when meetings should be scheduled, how much notice should be given, Where people should be seated and how the negotiations should be proceed. During the negotiations there are also vast cultural differences in what is considered appropriate language, communication style and body language. For example, some culture value eye contact, others do not. Some cultures use 'yes' as an acknowledgement of what the person has said, other use 'yes' only for agreement.Social conventions of greeting, dressing, eating and entertaining also vary considerably amongst cultures and these are important to learn since a lot of business takes place while having dinner or enjoying drinks together.If a businessman attempts a cross-cultural business partnership without an adequate awareness of his associate's culture, he is likely to encounter misunderstanding and may even cause offence. This will damage and may even end the business relationship. Therefore, cultural differences must be carefully handled when doing business with people from different countries.3.Fighting against PiracyNowadays the problem of piracy has become increasingly serious. Not only is there a serious lack of knowledge am ongst the general public about piracy issues, but there is also an attitude of indifference.These days piracy is strongly evident in the commercial world in the wide availability of illegal VCDs and DVDs , the inclusion of Copyrighted pictures, web graphics, video clips and magazine portions in business presentations and the photocopying of books and articles for distribution without the author's permission.The negative consequences of piracy are two-fold. Firstly, the Copyright owners are likely to suffer significant financial losses. Secondly, the Copyright owner loses recognition, if the source of the material is unacknowledged.Therefore it is important for all citizens to become educated about piracy issues, to follow copyright laws in their own lives, and to encourage their colleagues and friends to do the same.4.The Importance of Learning Spoken EnglishIn today's modern world, learning spoken English has many advantages. English is fast becoming the international language of many fields, including politics, business and education. Not only is English used between native speakers and non-native speakers, but it is also used increasingly as a common language in interactions between non-native speakers. Having a good grasp of spoken English helps you to improve your chances of employment. These days, there are many foreign companies operating from China, and manyChinese-owned companies have trade links with foreign partners. These companies require speakers of English with sufficient language skills to ensure smooth business transa ctions. Spoken English also provides the chances for you to communicate socially with people from many other countries. It gives you a window into other cultures, and other perspectives of the world. It also gives you access to foreign films, TV programs, music and news. Therefore, spoken English is an important and fundamental tool in today's global village.5.Business EthicsCreating and sustaining an ethical corporation isn't as difficult as you might think; it's actually easier than some of the day-to-day business challenges you face. The keys to running an ethical company are accountability, honesty, and information transparency.Corporations aren't ethical or evil in and of themselves--but people can be. So ethics must focus on you and the people you work with. Most people want to do the right thing, but organizational structure does not guarantee they will do the right thing, without meaning to or even knowing it. Structuring an ethical corporation makes the goal easier to achieve.The challenge could not be more urgent. A substantial majority of people in China are dissatisfied with the social behavior of our corporations, say several recent news reports. Poor treatment of workers at home and abroad, products that don't perform as advertised, fake commodities, poor customer service, environm ental pollution, to mention a few.Responsible behavior is important to your business success, but let's not forget that you're in business--you're not out to solve the world's problems. So how do you balance the two? What does it mean to be ethical in business?It simply requires that you follow your best moral instincts, even in areas that don't appear to involve moral issues, such as cost-benefit analyses. But while good ethics often equates to good business, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes being truly ethical means giving up something you want in exchange for doing the right thing. That's why we worry about ethics in the first place--if it didn't cost us anything, everyone would be ethical all the time.6.SPORTS AND PSYCHOLOGICAL HEALTH.Sports do much good to our health. Especially they can be of great value to our psychological health. People who are involved in athletics feel more self-sufficient and confident in their abilities. They feel they are in control of their own actions. Sports offer people an opportunity to experience themselves as more competent, more self-reliant and more able to achieve their goals. Sports demand not only physical skill and strength but also courage, enthusiasm, discipline and usually team work. For people, what is learned in the playground often has a deep effect on their character. If each of them learns to work for his team and not for himself on the football field, he will find it natural to work for the good o f his country instead of only for his own benefit.原文已完。

For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems, not only physically but also psychologically. In this unit, students will be introduced to the importance of psychological health and ways to achieve it through listening, watching and reading. Various activities will inspire the students to talk about ways to cope with stress and to be happy by using the words and expressions in this unit. And finally, they will conduct a poll on “Stress on Campus ” with their peers.In this unit, you willget to know ways to deal with stress that comes from stressful situations, different life periods and difficult people through listening, watching and readingtalk about the impact of stress on your physical and especially mental health, and the ways to deal with stress through guided activitiesconduct a poll on “Stress on Campus ” with your peerspick up useful words and expressionslearn to reflect on your own learning and comment on that of your peers learn to think independently, critically and creatively Background InformationModern life is full of hassles, deadlines, frustrations, and demands. For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Stress isn’t always bad. In small doses, it can help you perform under pressure and motivate you to do your best. But when you’re consta ntly running in emergency mode, your mind and body pay the price.Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your balance in some way. When you sense danger--- whether i t’s real or imagined--- the body’s defenses kick into high gear in a rapid, automatic process known as the “fight -or-flight” reaction, or the stress response.The stress response is the body’s way of protecting you. When working properly, it helps you stay focused, energetic, and alert. In emergency situations, stress can save your life – giving you extra strength to defend yourself, for example, or spurring you to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident.Benjamin Franklin (1706 — 1790): One of the Founding Fathersof the United States. As a noted polymath, Franklin was a leadingauthor and printer, satirist, political theorist, politician,scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman, soldier, and diplomat. He helped draw up the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution; he played a major role in the American Revolution and negotiated French support for the colonists; as The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself.The stress response also helps you rise to meet challenges. Stress is what keeps you on your toes during a presentation at work, sharpens your concentration when you’re attempting the game-winning free throw, or drives you to study for an exam when you’d rather be watching TV.But beyond a certain point, stress stops being helpful and starts causing major damage to your health, your mood, your productivity, your relationships, and your quality of life.Effects of chronic stressThe body doesn’t distinguish between physical and psychological threats. When you’re stressed over a busy schedule, an ar gument with a friend, a traffic jam, or a mountain of bills, your body reacts just as strongly as if you were facing a life-or-death situation. If you have a lot of responsibilities and worries, your emergency stress response may be “on” most of the time. The more your body’s stress system is activated, the easier it is to trip and the harder it is to shut off.Long-term exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems. Chronic stress disrupts nearly every system in your body. It can raise blood pressure, suppress the immune system, increase the risk of heart attack and stroke, contribute to infertility, and speed up the aging process. Long-term stress can even rewire the brain, leaving you more vulnerable to anxiety and depression.Many health problems are caused or exacerbated by stress, including: Pain of any kindHeart diseaseDigestive problemsSleep problemsDepressionObesityAutoimmune diseasesSkin conditions, such as eczemaTopic Preview1.

Unit1answersandscripts大学体验英语听说教程4听力原文及答案
Unit1answersandscripts大学体验英语听说教程4听力原文及答案Scripts for Unit One IdentityListening Task 1The neighborhood children of my age played together: either active, physical games outdoors or games of dolls-and-house indoors. I, on the other hand, spent much of my childhood alone. I’d curl up in a chair reading fairy-tales and myths, daydreaming, writing poems or stories and drawing pictures. Sometime around the fourth grade, my “big”(often cri tical, judgmental) Grandma, who’d been visiting us said to me, “What’s wrong with you? Why don’t the other children want to play with you?”I remember being startled and confused by her question. I’d never been particularly interested in playing with the ot her children. It hadn’t, till then, occurred to me that that was either odd or something with me. Nor had it occurred to me that they didn’t “want to play with”me. My first conscious memory of feeling different was in the fourth grade. At the wardrobe, listening to classmates joking, chattering and laughing with each other, I realized I hadn’t a clue about what was so funny or of how to participate in their easy chatter. They seemed to live in a universe about which I knew nothing at all. I tried to act like others but it was so difficult. I felt confused and disoriented. I turned back to my inner world: reading books, writing and daydreaming. My inwardness grew me in ways that continued to move me further away from the world of my age peers. The easy flow of casual social chat has remained forever beyond my reach and beyond my interest, too.Listening Task 2The greatest difficulty for me is that as a person of mixed origin I am at home neither here nor there. Wherever I am, I am regarded as being foreign, e ither “white”or “black”. It happens to me when I live in my mother’s country of origin, in Switzerland, and it happened to me when I was living in my father’s country, Ivory Coast. I would feel at home where I could feel that people accept me just the way I am! When you are a small child you first do not feel that you are different from the others. But soon the others will make you feel different –and children too can be very cruel in their behavior against the “strange child”. Sometimes incredible incident s happen. Some time ago I was riding my bike somewhere in a little place in Switzerland nearby to where I live. A car drove by, and the male driver opened the window and yelled at me: “Scheiss –Neger –dirty nigger!”I almost froze. I felt helpless and unabl e to defend myself. When I looked at the number plate, I saw that it was a German number plate. This means that the insulting person himself was a foreigner in this country! How could he dare insult me like this? I felt that I wanted to kill this man. When I recovered I was able to think about it more clearly. These racist people are just stupid and do not know anything about life.Real World ListeningAnswers1.because he was charged with bank fraud.2.The man paid the money and all the charges were dismissed.3.He spent several days in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Apperently the police knew that he was not the person who committed the bank fraud.4.Their credit may be ruined so that they can’t get loansand it may take them years to settle the damage.5.The person who stole the man’s identity was caught and put in jail for identity fraud.Script--- Your story of identity theft is quite scary. What happened?--- one day early in the morning, I was awakened by a loud knock. When I opened the door, five policemen were standing there telling me to go to jail. I asked why and they said that I was wanted for bank fraud. I said “I never did that”and they said”that’s something we’ve never heard before...tell it to the judge.”--- Did you really have to spend time in jail?--- yes, I certainly did.--- how could you prove that it wasn’t you who committed the crime.--- Frankly, I never did. I simply paid the amount owed and and all the charges were dismissed. It was really a debt to a casino and, although it is a felony, all they wanted was their money.--- whew! For me,perhaps the most alarming aspect of your story is that you had to spend several days in jail- in spite of the fact that they knew the person who committed the fraud was of a different race than you. That is truly scary.--- yes, people suffer because others steal their identity to work illegally.Someone used another’s identity for years and ruined their credit.

Unit 4 Secrets to Win the Chinese Market Famous QuoteComing together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success.—Henry Fordfather of modern assembly lines used in mass production. His introduction of theModel T automobile revolutionized transportation and American industry.Unit OverviewWith the rapid growth of the Chinese economy and more frequent exchange between China and the outside world in every aspect of life, more and more foreign companies show their interests in Chinese market, take actions to invest in China, and carry out comprehensive strategies to win Chinese customers. This unit tackles not only the theoretical discussion but also the case study of foreign companies‘business activities in China. Students are provided with plenty of opportunities to read, listen, discuss and investigate on this topic.In this unit, you will∙consider the strengths and weaknesses of foreign companies in China through listening, viewing and reading∙discuss the secrets for those companies to win Chinese market through guided activities∙conduct a poll of your peers on ―Public Preferences to Foreign Brands‖∙pick up useful words and expressions∙learn to reflect on your own learning and comment on that of your peers∙learn to think independently, critically and creativelyBackground InformationSam Goodman‘s new book Where East Eats West has already been causing a stir in the West. Already part of the MBA curriculum for Boston College and University of Texas, this book is an accessible, easy to read guide to doing business in China. Unlike many other books of the same nature, Goodman writes in a fun, easy-to-digest style that makes it popular amongst people from all walks of life. Drawing from his first hand experience in China, the book is an unparalleled guide that offers a refreshing tone to what can be a frustrating topic.Entrepreneurs en route to China are hungry for many things–new experiences, challenges, accomplishments and, of course, money. But in far too many cases, these newbies learn too late that China —where business is king and everyone is looking out for No. 1 —eats youngentrepreneurs for breakfast.For those wishing to avoid being caught in the grinding economic jaws of the motherland,Sam Goodman‘s book is an essential read.Mr. Goodman‘s best nuggets of wisdom on the particularly unique aspects to doing business in China are his explanations of the importance of ―giving face‖ in Chinese and Asian culture. He also points out the importance of ―guanxi‖ or connections with important people who one can turn to for help. However, it is refreshing to see that guanxi is not overly emphasized, as the concept often is in Western books on China, as Mr. Goodman states: ―By the way, I doubt there is any more corruption in China than there is anywhere else. It‘s just more ‗accessible‘ here to ordinary folks like you or me.‖Mr. Goodman also states something that many Americans should take to heart: ―A good contract is a good… beginning!‖ One wants to hammer out a good contract, but there is a lot more to business than what is inside the four corners, and a good businessman has to be aware of this.Mr. Goodman‘s personal experience as a n entrepreneur starting up a chain of sandwich shops in Beijing is a good narrative and interesting for entrepreneurs navigating through business in China.Topic Preview1.
