1980年
牛仔裤的销售量获得空前成功,达502,000,000件大关。 1984年
Levi’s成为1984年美国奥运代表团的代表服装,并为 Levi’s 501 Blues作大型宣传。 1986年
Levi’s牛仔裤开始生产预先穿洞、破烂的牛仔裤。 1995年
网址正式启用。 1996年
1829年 Levi’s创办人Levi Strauss于德国Buttenheim出生。
1853年 当时的淘金热吸引了Levi Strauss来到三藩市,他利用帆布 制成第一条牛仔裤,由于牛仔裤十分耐用、耐磨及具高强韧 度,受到广大挖金工人的欢迎。 1855年
Levi Strauss采用从法国进口的蓝斜纹棉布(经纱为蓝色、 纬纱为白色的斜纹粗棉布),取代原用的帆布,大幅提升牛仔 裤的功能和外观。 1873年 为了让金矿工人可以盛载金块,特别在Levi’s牛仔裤的后袋 加设撞钉,加强其耐用度。同年,Levi’s牛仔裤的后袋更缝上 双行弧形缝线,称为Arcuate Design。
车工和独门染制技术与不断改变的剪裁,
影响深远。今冬系列虽然以新式洗水和剪
裁的牛仔裤作招徕,但亦不忘加入T-shirt、
卫衣、冷衫等基本服饰,并将Levi's产品上
的特征,包括铆钉、红标、皮革标牌、缝

全新版(第二版)第一册Unit5 TEXT A the Company Man 课文及翻译
Unit5 The Company Man1.He worked himself to death, finally and precisely, at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning.2.The obituary didn’t say that, of course. It said that he died of a coronary thrombosis — I think thatwas it — but everyone among his friends and acquaintances knew it instantly. He was a perfect Type A2, a workaholic, a classic, they said to each other and shook their heads — and thought for five or ten minutes about the way they lived.3.This man who worked himself to death finally and precisely at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning — onhis day off —was fifty-one years old and a vice-president. He was, however, one of six vice-presidents, and one of three who might conceivably — if the president died or retired soon enough — have moved to the top spot. Phil knew that.4.He worked six days a week, five of them until eight or nine at night, during a time when his owncompany had begun the four-day week for everyone but the executives. He worked like the Important People3. He had no outside “extracurricular interests,” unless, of course, you think about a monthly golf game that way. To Phil, it was work. He always ate egg salad sandwiches at his desk. He was, of course, overweight, by 20 or 25 pounds. He thought it was okay, though, because he didn’t smoke.5.On Saturdays, Phil wore a sports jacket to the office instead of a suit, because it was the weekend.6.He had a lot of people working for him, maybe sixty, and most of them liked him most of the time.Three of them will be seriously considered for his job. Th e obituary didn’t mention that.7.But it did list his “survivors” quite accurately. He is survived by his wife, Helen, forty-eight yearsold, a good woman of no particular marketable skills, who worked in an office before marrying and mothering. She had, according to her daughter, given up trying to compete with his work years ago, when the children were small. A company friend said, “I know how much you will miss him.” And she answered, “I already have.”8.“Missing him all these years,” she must have given up part of herself which had cared too muchfor the man. She would be “well taken care of.”9.His “dearly beloved” eldest of the “dearly beloved” children is a hard-working executive in amanufacturing firm down South. In the day and a half before the funeral, he went around the neighborhood researching his father, asking the neighbors what he was like. They were embarrassed.10.His second child is a girl, who is twenty-four and newly married. She lives near her mother andthey are close, but whenever she was alone with her father, in a car driving somewhere, they had nothing to say to each other.11.The youngest is twenty, a boy, a high-school graduate who has spent the last couple of years, like alot of his friends, doing enough odd jobs to stay in grass and food4. He was the one who tried to grab at his father, and tried to mean enough to him to keep the man at home. He was his father’s favorite. Over the last two years, Phil stayed up nights worrying about the boy.12.The boy once said, “My father and I only board here5.”13.At the funeral, the sixty-year-old company president told the forty-eight-year-old widow that thefifty-one-year-old deceased had meant much to the company and would be missed and would be hard to replace. The widow didn’t look him in the eye. She w as afraid he would read her bitterness and, after all, she would need him to straighten out the finances — the stock options6 and all that.14.Phil was overweight and nervous and worked too hard. If he wasn’t at the office he was worriedabout it. Phil was a Type A, a heart-attack natural. You could have picked him out in a minute from a lineup.15.So when he finally worked himself to death, at precisely 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning, no one wasreally surprised.16.By 5:00 p.m. the afternoon of the funeral, the company president had begun, discreetly of course,with care and taste, to make inquiries about his replacement. One of three men. He asked around: “Who’s been working the hardest?”公司人1.他终于在星期天凌晨三点整因过度劳累而离开人世。

泛读教程I 教案Unit 1 University Student Life教学目标或要求:1.Students learn how to guess the meaning of new words by reading context.2. By the two articles “On Being a Student” and “Getting the Best value for Time”,the teacher gives students suggestions on how to improve reading skills and how to make good use of time in the university.3. After learning unit one, students should have the basic understanding of suffix and prefix and try to use the word-building knowledge to expand their vocabulary.教学内容(包括基本内容、重点、难点):I. Reading skill: Context Clue to Word MeaningContext means the words or sentences before or after the item you do not know. Context sometimes provides definition clues. Consider: Linguistics, the scientific study of language, is very important for language students. Notice the italicized word is clearly defined. Besides the formal definition, the writer may also give explanation after such punctuation marks as comma, dash or within parentheses.Context sometimes gives example clues. Consider: like horses, human beings have a variety of gaits, they amble, stride, jog and sprint. Notice several examples are given to shed light on the meaning of the italicized word “gait”, a way of way of walking. In the sentences with example clues, the examples are usually signaled by certain words or phrases like such as, including, for example, for instance or to illustrate.Although context clues are useful in discovering the meaning of an unknown word, there are some limitations to this approach. The meaning you get from the context may be vague or general. Sometimes there is too much unfamiliar language to allow you to use the context. While you don’t interrupt your reading to look up new words in a dictionary, you may still want to check your guess if you find that some word is used often, and seems to be an important one in your field. In such cases, mark the unknown words when you are reading, and look them up later.II. Text: University Student LifeStep one: word pretest before going to text On Being a Student.Check the meaning of ten new words: profession, involve, explore, diminish, urge, performance,discipline, sack, linger, awkward.Step two: give students five minutes to scan the text and discuss the following questions: How is your college life different from your high school days? What is your plan to improve your reading skills?Step three: detailed explanation of the text. Being a university student is your profession for at least the next four years and this involves a change of attitude in many ways. First you chose one major subject instead of several subjects because you find it interesting and worth exploring further. Second, you have before you the goal of getting a degree. Another change is the relationship with teachers. You are now active learner instead of passive receiver. Teachers are only coaches and you would not be discouraged if you get back with a poorer mark than you expected and with various criticisms. In order to adapt to all the changes you must put in hours of regular practice every day. Some activities like reading, writing and note-taking, speaking and discussion are basic to studying. Make sure that you are doing these efficiently.III. Vocabulary buildingWord match exercise. Give students three groups of new words and definitions and match the word with the definitions. Some basic knowledge on suffix. Many verbs end in suffix –ize, such as realize, organize, criticize, characterize; many adverbs end in the suffix –ly, such as efficiently, certainly, professionally. If we study carefully, we can save a lot of time memorizing new words.1.How to guess the meaning from context reading2.How to get used to life in the university3.Some ways to enlarge vocabularyAssignments:Should teachers establish personal relationship with their students?

Together they can complain in their native language.If you are driving across the country or through a city, you can also check the billboards you will see along the roads. They advertise not only products but also coming events and sights to see.Through context reading, we can easily get the meanings of “complain”-say bad words about something and “billboard” – a place to put on notice.II. Word PretestLet students guess the meanings for “acquaintance, symptom, depress, hostility, temporary, inevitable, located, dwelling on”III. TextMaking a Cultural ChangeExplanation of the text: the students who studies in a foreign country leave behind a familiar, loving, comfortable environment.

II.Text: How Do the Movies Do it?Step one: word pretest. Check the meaning of eight new words: crash, flood, apply to, absolutely, flame, instantly, deviceStep two: give students five minutes to scan the text and discuss the following questions: What kind of movie is your favorite? Do you think to become an actor or actress is a good job for young people?Step three: detailed explanation of the text. Have you ever seen a movie in which a building was burned down or a bridge was destroyed? Have you seen films in which a train crashed or a ship sank into the ocean? If so, you may have wondered how these things would happen without harming the people in the film. The man is called special effect man. In a scene for one movie there was a big glass bowl filled with water in which the fish were swimming. The director of the movie wanted the fish to stop swimming suddenly when they seemed to stare at an actor. Then the director wanted the fish stop staring and swam away. But fish cannot be ordered to do anything. It was quite a problem. At last controlling the fish through a harmless use of electricity solved the problem. As in other parts of movie making, there are those who have developed particular skill in creating certain kinds of effects. All this requires training, skill, and experience. It also adds a great deal to the expense of producing the film. It helps explain why so many movies are very expensive to make.III. Vocabulary buildingWord match exercise.

全新版(第二版)第一册Unit5 TEXT A the Company Man 课文及翻译
Unit5 The Company Man1.He worked himself to death, finally and precisely, at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning.2.The obituary didn’t say that, of course. It said that he died of a coronary thrombosis — I think thatwas it — but everyone among his friends and acquaintances knew it instantly. He was a perfect Type A2, a workaholic, a classic, they said to each other and shook their heads — and thought for five or ten minutes about the way they lived.3.This man who worked himself to death finally and precisely at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning — onhis day off —was fifty-one years old and a vice-president. He was, however, one of six vice-presidents, and one of three who might conceivably — if the president died or retired soon enough — have moved to the top spot. Phil knew that.4.He worked six days a week, five of them until eight or nine at night, during a time when his owncompany had begun the four-day week for everyone but the executives. He worked like the Important People3. He had no outside “extracurricular interests,” unless, of course, you think about a monthly golf game that way. To Phil, it was work. He always ate egg salad sandwiches at his desk. He was, of course, overweight, by 20 or 25 pounds. He thought it was okay, though, because he didn’t smoke.5.On Saturdays, Phil wore a sports jacket to the office instead of a suit, because it was the weekend.6.He had a lot of people working for him, maybe sixty, and most of them liked him most of the time.Three of them will be seriously considered for his job. Th e obituary didn’t mention that.7.But it did list his “survivors” quite accurately. He is survived by his wife, Helen, forty-eight yearsold, a good woman of no particular marketable skills, who worked in an office before marrying and mothering. She had, according to her daughter, given up trying to compete with his work years ago, when the children were small. A company friend said, “I know how much you will miss him.” And she answered, “I already have.”8.“Missing him all these years,” she must have given up part of herself which had cared too muchfor the man. She would be “well taken care of.”9.His “dearly beloved” eldest of the “dearly beloved” children is a hard-working executive in amanufacturing firm down South. In the day and a half before the funeral, he went around the neighborhood researching his father, asking the neighbors what he was like. They were embarrassed.10.His second child is a girl, who is twenty-four and newly married. She lives near her mother andthey are close, but whenever she was alone with her father, in a car driving somewhere, they had nothing to say to each other.11.The youngest is twenty, a boy, a high-school graduate who has spent the last couple of years, like alot of his friends, doing enough odd jobs to stay in grass and food4. He was the one who tried to grab at his father, and tried to mean enough to him to keep the man at home. He was his father’s favorite. Over the last two years, Phil stayed up nights worrying about the boy.12.The boy once said, “My father and I only board here5.”13.At the funeral, the sixty-year-old company president told the forty-eight-year-old widow that thefifty-one-year-old deceased had meant much to the company and would be missed and would be hard to replace. The widow didn’t look him in the eye. She w as afraid he would read her bitterness and, after all, she would need him to straighten out the finances — the stock options6 and all that.14.Phil was overweight and nervous and worked too hard. If he wasn’t at the office he was worriedabout it. Phil was a Type A, a heart-attack natural. You could have picked him out in a minute from a lineup.15.So when he finally worked himself to death, at precisely 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning, no one wasreally surprised.16.By 5:00 p.m. the afternoon of the funeral, the company president had begun, discreetly of course,with care and taste, to make inquiries about his replacement. One of three men. He asked around: “Who’s been working the hardest?”公司人1.他终于在星期天凌晨三点整因过度劳累而离开人世。

ADVICE TO NEW WRITERS
New writers should realize that writing is a craft that one learns through practice. Very few writers succeed at first. Writing courses can be useful and input from peers through a writing group is invaluable, as a way of learning and as a support group. Beginners must not be upset by rejections. Even experienced writers still get these.
