He taught me that beneath gruffness there may be kindness, and that kindness is the sweetest thing in the world, and goodness is the best thing in the world.

What kind of books do you like to read most?2. What do you think of ―A book is a friend that will never turn its back upon us‖?Notes1. Samuel Smiles (1812-1904) was a Scottish author and reformer. Smiles is best known today as the writer of books praising virtues of self-help, and biographies praising the achievements of ―heroic‖ engineers. Smiles’s self-help books have been cited as influential on the New Thought Movement in late 19th century America and England, and, in particular, on the career of the New Thought author Orison Swett Marden, who said that his early ambition had been to become ―the Samuel Smiles of America.‖ Most of Smiles’s biographies were contained in the four-volume work, Lives of the Engineers, but he also wrote many other biographies. He selected the topics of his biographies as a means of emphasizing his thesis of self-help. These works have come to exemplify Victorian values for the modern reader. He received some criticism in his own time from socialists because of his emphasis on individual achievement. He was a prolific author of books and articles.2. … there is a companionship of books as well as of men; … (Paragraph 1): There are some books you enjoy spending your time reading just as there are some people you enjoy spending time with; …companionship: when you are with someone you enjoy being with, and are not alonee.g. When Stan died, I missed his companionship.Mrs. Greene keeps dogs for companionship and security.3. …, whether it be of books or of men.(Paragraph 1): … no matter whether the company should be that of books or that of men.Here the verb be is in the subjunctive. The subjunctive is a verb form or a set of verb forms in grammar, used in a few cases to express doubt, wishes, etc. In very formal language (e.g. legal documents), be is sometimes used after if and whatever.e.g.If any person be found guilty…… whatever be the reason4. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. (Paragraph 2): It does not refuse to help us when we are in serious trouble or when we feel extremely unhappy.turn one’s back on: (often derog.) avoid; go away from, esp. when one should staye.g.My explanation of the saying ―A friend in need is a friend indeed‖ is that a person whonever turns his/her back on you who are in need of help is a real friend.5. Love me, love my dog. (Paragraph 3): If you love someone, you must accept everything about them, even their faults or weakness.This is a proverb similar in meaning to the Chinese saying ―爱屋及乌‖. And in the text, ― Love me, love my book‖ is the writer’s wise twist of the proverb to express his idea that true friends should cherish similar feelings about certain books.6. The book is a truer and higher bond of union. (Paragraph 3): The book joins one person and his/her friends together by offering a means of ―talking‖ with and understanding each other through their favorite author.7. “Books,” said Hazlitt, “wind into the heart; the poet’s v erse slides in the current of ourblood. We read them when young, we remember them when old. We feel that it has happened to ourselves. They are to be had very cheap and good. We breathe but the air of books.”(Paragraph 4): In Hazlitt’s opinion, good book s gradually gain our love and trust;the poet’s verse produces a surprisingly emotional effect on us without our conscious realization. Good books always appeal to us: we enjoy reading them in our youth and we maintain their noble ideas in our old age. We feel that the problems of people we meet in books are like our own. Books can be easily obtained and they express everlasting truth. We get the fullest possible value from what we read.8. A good book is often the best urn of a life enshrining the best tha t life could think out; … (Paragraph 5): A good book preserves and exposes us to broad human values and wisdom of human civilization. If a tradition, right, etc. is enshrined in something, it is preserved and protected so that people will remember and respect it.e.g.The right of free speech is enshrined in the Constitution.Memories of happier days were enshrined in the old man’s heart.9. “They are never alone,” said Sir Philip Sidney, “that are accompanied by noblethoughts.”(Paragraph 5): Sir Philip Sidney believed that those that are enjoying morally wor- thy ideas never feel lonely.10. The good and true thought may in times of temptation be as an angel of mercy purifyingand guarding the soul. (Paragraph 6): The good and true thought may help one to know all about good and evil or right and wrong, remove evil from one’s soul, and guide one’s behavior.temptation: a strong desire to have or do something even though you know you should note.g.She thought of taking a day off work, but resisted the temptation.I finally gave in to the temptation and had a cigarette.11. It also enshrines the germs of action, … (Paragraph 6): It is also a source of inspiration forgood works, …The germ of an idea, theory, feeling, etc. is the early stage of an idea, theory, feeling, etc. that may develop into something bigger and more important.e.g. The germ of a story began to form in his mind.12. Books possess an essence of immortality. (Paragraph 7): Books boast an eternal life, i.e. theywill be passed on from generation to generation.13. Time is of no account with great thoughts, … (Paragraph 7): Good books are beyond timeand place, …of great/no account: of great/no importancee.g.His opinion is of no account in my research.14. Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatestminds that have ever lived. (Paragraph 8): Books usher us into the best society, where we find ourselves in front of the most important thinkers, people of letters, philosophers, etc. that have ever lived in this world.15. … as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes which they describe.(Paragraph 8): … as though we played various roles, to some degree, with the writers in the scenes they depict.in a measure: to a degreee.g. Drunkenness is in a measure responsible for traffic accidents.16. Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad. (Paragraph 9): Preserved in their books,authors can still speak to us after death.abroad: over a wide area; everywheree.g. Corporations do not want their commercial secrets spread abroad.17. The imperial intellects of the world are as much alive now as they were ages ago.(Paragraph 9): Great thoughts of the world gain everlasting power and authority, appealing to readers of all generations.Questions for discussion1. Why is a good book the most patient and cheerful of companions?2. What are the essential qualities of a good book?3. How does the good and true thought act as an angel of mercy?4. Why are good works immortal?5. According to the author, what is the ultimate goal of reading a good book?Key to Questions for discussion1. A good book offers the reader a means of communication with the author, we find pleasure inlearning about life and possible solutions to our problems in a good book. Through it, we sometimes understand situations which are hard to understand in real life.2. Good books beyond time and place expose us to the accumulated wisdom of human civilization.They see into the very depths of our souls and guide our behavior. They point out evils in society and challenge us to seek social or political reforms. They express feelings that people anywhere might have at any time and provide knowledge about unfamiliar subjects or give new insights into familiar ones.3. It may hel p to purify and exalt one’s narrow, selfish and petty personal aims of life into a nobleand meaningful purpose of life.4. Good work speak to us about broad human values besides the meaningful words and phrasesused. These values are universal and have a far-reaching impression5. The ultimate goal of reading a good book is to be able to understand it, to evaluate it, and to use it for one’s needs. A good book expand our experiences and abilities and to find new interests.Memorable QuotesRead the following quotes and find out what do they have in common regarding "art".Guidance: Art has not always been what we think it is today. An object regarded as art today may not have been perceived as such when it was first made, nor was the person who made it necessarily regarded as an artist. Art may be described as the use of skill and imagination in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences — rather than what it is i.e. ―work of art‖ It is difficult to define art, while as a matter of fact art plays a large part in making our lives infinitely rich.Friedrich von Schiller (1759 –1805) was a German poet, philosopher, historian and playwright. Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky (1839 – 1881) was an innovator of Russian music in the romantic period.1.Art is the right hand of nature. The latter only gave us being, but the former made us men.– Friedrich von SchillerParaphrase: Art is the right hand of nature. Nature only gave us the body, while art gave us spirit and then we became men with thought.the former … the latter: being the first of the two mentioned … being the second of the two mentionede.g. He got the offer from P&G and Unilever; he prefer the former over the latter.2. Art is not an end in itself, but a means of addressing humanity. — M.P. Mousorgsky Paraphrase: Art is created not for the art itself, but for acting as a way to communicate with people.address: to speak to sb. directlye.g. President Obama addresses the nation on education reform.。

In the mean time, the (3) destructive imagination of 9/11 brought down the World Trade Center, throwing the world into chaos and panic.Eleven-nine arose from a simple event in which hundreds of East Germans sought (4) refuge at the West German (5) embassy in Hungary in July 1989.

Unit 3Part I Listening TaskScript for the recording:White lies are those little lies that we tell to avoid causing embarrassment. Can we live without them? On the one hand, we don't want to hurt other people's feelings. But on the other, we don't want to lie to them. There is, however, a way out of the dilemma, as you will discover in the short talk you are about to hear.White lies are so much a part of our everyday lives that most of us probably don't even realize when we've let one slip. But it doesn't really matter, since a white lie isn't a real lie.Here are just a few examples:"This place really has potential." One may say this though in his or her mind he is saying: "What a dump it is.""That haircut really suits you," but secretly you just can't help laughing: "Ha ha ha ha ha!""Next Tuesday? That'd be great." Later, you may ask yourself: "Why did I open my big mouth?"White lies allow us to keep our friends and relationships intact, and our names on the payroll.We tell ourselves these little pork pies are necessary to spare people's feelings, but who are we trying to kid? If your best friend looks untidy in her new outfit and you let her loose on the street to be ridiculed behind her back, have you really done her a favour? Nope.Of course, white lies can be avoided by staring into space or pretending you didn't hear the question, but so often the "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all" motto doesn't work because we are expected to say something.In these instances I usually follow my grandmother's advice: there is always a good point to be found in everything. Sometimes you might have to dig mighty hard but when you unearth it, latch on. This is how it works. "Don't you think my fiancé is gorgeous?" You answer: "He's got the best eyes (or nose)." "Do you like my new hairstyle?" You answer: "It really highlights the shape of your face."Be careful, though, as this approach also applies in reverse. If you ask a friend if he likes your new car and he says, "It's a great colour", press the point just to check if he's playing your game.After Listening1.White lies are little lies that you tell in order to avoid causing embarrassment.2.According to the speaker, white lies do not always help those you want to help, yet they don’tdo harm, either.3.You are often caught in a dilemma: On the one hand, you wish to avoid telling white-lies bystaring into space or pretending you didn't hear the question, but on the other you can’t because you are expected to say something.4. A way to get out of the dilemma is to find a good point in everything you are talking about.This is how it works. "Don't you think my fiancé is gorgeous?" You answer: "He's got thebest eyes (or nose)."Part II Reading TaskText AComprehensionContent QuestionsPossible answers to content questions:1.Because everyone she’s talked to has a quite intense and personal but often rather intolerantview on what we can or cannot lie about.2.They are social lies, peace-keeping lies, protective lies and trust-keeping lies.3.Most people think so because they feel it is the civilized way for people to behave. Withoutthem, our relationships would go wrong.4.Because he thinks that social lying is lying, that little white lies are still lies. And he feels thattelling lies is morally wrong and destroys your credibility.5.The writer thinks that peace-keeping lies are designed to keep trouble at bay without hurtinganyone. And she tells them at times too, but still feels they’re wrong.6.Dave holds that it is cowardly of his wife to tell peace-keeping lies. However, his wife thinksthat she is being wise to do so.7.They tell protective lies because they’re convinced that the truth would be too damaging.They believe it’s for the good of the person they’re lying to, not for any pers onal gain.8.Because she thinks it quite presumptuous to claim she knows what’s best for others to know.And we never can be sure, once we start to tell such lies, just what they’ll end up in.9.She defines trust-keeping lies as lies that involve triangulation. People feel compelled to tellsuch lies because once they’ve agreed not to betray a friend’s confidence, they can’t betray it, even if they must lie.10.Her way is to keep herself from being told about her friend’s secrets.11.By “Watergate lies” she refers to lies that are told to cover up serious scandals like abuse ofpower by public officials, violation of the public trust, bribery and all that. She disapproves of telling Watergate lies most probably because she thinks they are immoral or illegal.12.It’s her belief that once we’ve promised to keep a trust, we must tell lies to keep it. She alsobelieves that we can’t tell Watergate lies.Text Analysis2. Exposition.4.

Unit 10 A Debt to Dickens

Unit 10 A Debt to DickensI. Main idea1. What does this narrative text tell us?This text first tells us about the most indelible不可磨灭的experiences the writer went through when she lived an isolated life as a child in the remote Chinese countryside. Next, the text describes and relates how she discovered and read and digested Dickens’ novels. Then, it highlights the ways in which the writer benefited immensely from Dickens.2. What is the main purpose of the writer?The writer’s main purpose is to emp hasize that she is immensely grateful to Charles Dickens, for she has been enlightened a great deal by him, and that Dickens’ novels, which deal with real life and real people and explore significant and permanent topics, constitute a rewarding让读者获益匪浅的heritage of mankind, and therefore are well worth reading and studying.II. Structural analysis1. How is the first paragraph associated with the last one?In the first paragraph the writer makes it clear that she has owed Charles Dickens a heavy debt by reading his novels. And the only way to honor her obligation is to write down what Charles Dickens did for her. In the last paragraph, the writer says she was deeply influences by him. Thus, the concluding part of the narrative text is naturally connected with the beginning part.2. Work out the structure of the text by completing the table.Paragraph(s)Main idea1It introduces the setting and the relationship between the writer and Charles Dickens.2-3The writer recalls her isolated childhood life in a remote Chinese countryside, her unpleasant experiences and the painful feeling she had because she was a foreigner.4-6The writer narrates and describes her experiences as a voracious reader.7The writer highlights Dickens’ great influenc e upon her.Text IA Debt to Dickens1. I have long looked for an opportunity to pay a certain debt which I have owed (我所欠的某种债务、情意)since I was seven years old. Debts are usually burdens负担, but this is no ordinary debt, and it is no burden, except as the feeling of warm gratitude may ache in one until it is expressed(不表达出来就让人揪心). My debt is to an Englishman我的债是欠一位英国人的, who long ago in China rendered an inestimable (invaluable)service给予无法估量的教益、服务to a small American child(一个在中国的美国小孩). That child was myself and that Englishman was Charles Dickens. I know no better way to meet my obligation(oblige / obliged)表达我的感恩than to write down what Charles Dickens did in China for an American child查尔斯-狄更斯对我这个在中国的美国小孩的影响.2. First, you must picture to yourself你得自己想象一下that child, living quite solitary (alone / social) in a remote Chinese countryside, in a small mission bungalow教区的一座小平房perched位于upon a hill among the rice fields in the valleys below周围山谷是成片的稻田. In the near distance近处蜿蜒流淌着wound that deep, treacherous(treachery / unreliable), golden river水深的、变幻莫测的金色水道, the Yangtse, and some of the most terrifying and sinister最可怕凶险的、同时也最开心兴奋的, as well as the most delightful and exciting moments of that child’s lif e孩提时光, were spent beside the river. She loved to crawl along its banks upon the rocks or upon the muddy flats沿着它岸边的岩石和泥地跋涉and watch for the lifting of the huge four-square nets that hung into the moving yellow flood撒在浊黄的滚滚洪流中的巨大的四方渔网, and see out of that flood come perhaps again and again一次又一次从洪流拉出的也许是an empty net, but sometimes great flashing, twisting silver bodies of fish一大包闪亮的扭摆的鱼体. She lingered(逗留/ stay) beside villages of boat folk在船工小村旁逗留, and saw them live, the babies tied to a rope and splashing in the shallower waters小娃仔用绳子拴着,在浅水中拍水. But she saw babies dead thrown into the deep waters看着婴儿死了,被扔进深水中. She wandered small and alien(alienate / alienation / native)显得细小而怪异among the farm folk in the earthen houses among the fields在住着田野中土屋的农民百姓之间. She accepted a bowl of rice and cabbage领受一碗米饭和白菜often at meal time and sat among the peasants on the threshing floor about the door在门口的打谷场上and ate, usually in silence, listening and listening, answering their kindly, careless随意的questions, bearing(tolerating) with shy, painful smiles用羞涩的痛苦的微笑忍受their kind teasing laughter取笑at her yellow curls and unfortunate blue eyes不幸长成蓝色的眼睛, which they thought so ugly. She was, sheknew, very alien怪异. Upon the streets of the great city where sometimes she went she learned to accept the cry of foreign devil忍受人们对她大叫洋妖、洋鬼子, and to realize she was a foreign devil洋妖.3. She grew from a very tiny child into a bigger child, still knowing she was alien 外国人. However kindly the people about her might be, and they were much more often kind than not, she knew that she was foreign to them. And she wondered想知道very much about her own folk她自己的乡亲and where they were and how they looked and at what they played. But she did not know. In the bungalow were her parents, very busy, very, very busy, and when she learned her lessons in the morning quickly, they were too busy to(so…that…) pay much heed(heedful / heedless)留意to her and so she wandered about a great deal溜达很久, seeing and learning all sorts of things. She had fun. But very often she used to wonder纳闷, “Where are the other children like me? What is it like in the country where they live?” She longed渴望very much, I can remember, to have some of them to play with. But she never had them.4. To this small, isolated(isolation)creature there came one day an extraordinary accident. She was an impossibly voracious(voracity / greedy) reader贪心得无法想象的读者. She would like to have had children’s books, but there were none, and so she read everything, —Plutarch’s普卢塔克写的Lives and Foxe’s福克斯的Martyrs《殉教者》, the Bible, church history, and the hot spots in Jonathan Edwards’s乔纳森-爱德华兹的sermons布道文, and conversations out of Shakespeare从莎士比亚作品节选的对话, and bits of Tennyson and Browning丁尼生和布朗宁的诗歌片段which she could not understand at all. Then one day she looked doubtfully at a long row of somber(somberness / dark, serious) blue books暗蓝色的书本on a very high shelf. They were quite beyond her reach. Later she discovered this was because they were novels. But being desperate(desperation)极端急切she put a three-cornered bamboo stool一张三角竹凳on top of a small table and climbed up and stared at the bindings封皮and in faded black titles she read她读着褪色的黑色标题Oliver Twist, by Charles Dickens. She was then a little past过了一点的seven years old. It was a very hot August day, in the afternoon about three o’clock, when the household一家人was asleep, all except the indefatigable不知疲倦的parents, and they were very, very busy. She took Oliver Twist out of its place — it was fat and thick宽大厚实, for Hard Times was bound with it跟它订在一起— and in great peril(perilous / danger)descended(ascend)冒着巨大的危险下来, and stopping in the pantry在食品室里装满一口袋花生for a pocket full of peanuts, she made off to离开,去a secret corner of the veranda into which进去only a small, agile(nimble)细小敏捷child could squeeze挤, andopened the closely printed pages of an old edition印刷得稠密的旧版本书页, and discovered her playmates玩伴.5. How can I make you know我如何才能让你明白what that discovery was to that small, lonely child? There in that corner above the country road在那乡村公路边的楼上的那个角落in China在中国的那个地方, with vendors passing beneath me小贩们从我眼底走过, I entered into my own heritage进入我自己继承的宝书. I cannot tell you about those hours. I know I was roused (waken) at six o’clock by the call to my supper叫我吃碗饭的喊声使我回过神来, and I looked about dazed头昏眼花,四处张望, to discover the long rays of the late afternoon sun 迟暮的日光streaming across the valleys漫过山谷. I remember twice I closed the book and burst into tears突然大哭, unable to bear忍受the tragedy of Oliver Twist, and then opened it quickly again, burning to know more渴望更多的认识. I remember, most significant of all, that I forgot to touch a peanut我忘记了我的花生,连动都没动, and my pocket was still quite full when I was called. I went to my supper in a dream, and read as late as I dared in my bed afterward尔后,我总会躺在床上看书到很晚,直到有些害怕为止, and slept with the book under my pillow, and woke again in the early morning. When Oliver Twist was finished, and after it Hard Times, I was wretched (miserable) with indecision (decision / indecisive). I felt I must read it all straight over again再一次通读一遍, and yet I不过,我还对……非常渴望was voracious for that long row of blue books. What was in them? I climbed up again, finally, and put Oliver Twist at the beginning, and began on the next one, which was David Copperfield. I resolved (decide / be determined) to 决心去读遍那一排书read straight through the row and then begin at the beginning once more and read straight through again.然后又从头开始,再通读一遍。

Billy Crystal and John Goodman supply the voices to the animated hit, Monsters, Inc., now at number four. Robert Redford outsmarts the CIA and rescues his buddy in the espionage thriller, Spy Game, now at three. At two, Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman show courage underfire in the military drama, Behind Enemy Lines. And Daniel Radcliffe, the young wizard, does his magic for a fifth week: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is number one.Part BThe screen version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone has performed magic at the box office. Breaking records in the United States and Britain in the first of its release, the film is said to have taken more than $ 90 million in the first three days in the US, that is 20 million more than the previous record set by Jurassic Park.Harry Potter not only shattered Jurassic Park's domestic record of $ 72 million in the debut release, but also reached $100 million domestic in a record four days breaking the Phantom Menace's five-day mark.At Rockville in Maryland, the Raymond family got some of the last tickets of the day to see Harry Potter. This cinema is showing the film on four screens, and they've almost all been sold out. 2,500 tickets were bought before the movie even opened.The British wizard has become a huge star in America, and it definitely lifted the spirits of moviegoers.Viewer 1: I've read the books, and I think they're really exciting. And I like Daniel's Harry Potter very much because he's handsome, cute, smart and he acts so well. He is exactly what I have imagined in my mind while reading the books.Viewer 2: I like those special effects, mostly the witchcraft and all that good stuff. I feel really thrilled when watching the movie. I can't wait to see the second Harry Potter film.And Harry Potter has worked his magic. Even the producers can't believe it. The film made $ 30 million on each of the first three days. It lifted a box office dry spell on the studio, Warner Brothers.Martin Grove (Hollywood Reporter On Line): Warner Brothers has not seen good times at the box office, but what's wonderful about Harry Potter is that it's not just the one movie. The second Harry Potter film and the third Harry Potter film ... are coming one after another.Alan Horn (Warner Brothers): We are in uncharted territory here. We have never had a gross this big. Our industry has never had a gross this big, and so we're having to sort of rewrite the books.Warner Brothers reports that Harry Potter and his friends have enraptured moviegoers of all ages. And even this bookish eighty-year-old.Viewer 3 (80 years old) : It's interesting that this movie captured all of the feeling that you get in reading the book, so it's a great thrill to see the movie.And would they like to see it again?Y oung viewers: Yeah!Key to listening exercisesA. 1.Movies ActorsHarry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone --------- Daniel RadcliffeBlack Knight -------------------------------------- Martin LawrenceSpy Game ----------------------------------------- Robert RedfordMonsters, Inc. ------------------------------------ Billy CrystalJohn GoodmanBehind Enemy Lines --------------------------- Owen WilsonGene HackmanB. 1. a.

According to the passage, the most striking part of Ingrid Bergman's personality was perhaps her "ferocious dedication to her work". (Paragraph 4.)

Open to discussion.Unit 12 T ext I Time to Take it EasyT ext Comprehension P169I. Decide which of the following best states the author's purpose of writing.C. This can be easily perceived from the title of the essay.II. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F. The statement is true of Europeans, but not true of Americans. Americans keepthemselves busy all the year round, not particularly in summer. Refer to Paragraph 2.2. T. Refer to Paragraph 7.3. F. Among the developed nations, the people from the richest are no more likely to behappier than those from the poorest. Refer to Paragraph 9.4. T. Refer to Paragraphs 11 and 12.5. F. It is not always the case. Refer to Paragraph 13.III. Answer the following questions. P1701. Americans are proud of their long and hard work, because they think it has made their nation the richest and most powerful one in the world.2. Taking into account the preceding sentence "Even Americans are finding time to thinkabout the issue", we can see that Gini has spent most of his life working and there is not much left. So he has to take time to consider the issue seriously before it is too late.3. According to Professor Gini, Americans feel uncomfortable with the idea of doing nothing and they need to fill their free time with activities either shopping and sports or entertainment. Gini suggests that Americans should learn "the gentle art of doing ' nothing''', and give some time to contemplation, wonder and development of ideas.4. Oliver James points out that wealth does make people feel happy in some circumstances as indicated by the comparison between people from developing nations and those in developed ones. However, more wealth does not make people happier when a society can meet all its citizens' basic needs.5. Those anti-work campaigners believe that we should "work to live, not live to work".6. Gini's definition of "being lazy" is that one should not get oneself fully occupied with job-related work; instead, one should give some time to what he/she likes to do.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken from the text.1 ....I've already spent most of my life in this world ... I've got to take time because my time will soon run out no matter whether I like it or not.2. Besides offering suggestions in their magazines on how to spend one's free time in a creative way, these "anti-work" advocates organize events like "national phone in sick day" ...Structural analysis of the textIn the first part the author presents two contrasting pictures of what continental Europeans and Americans do in summer, thus introducing the theme of the essay how to view the work-leisure issue. The second part tells the readers that the difference largely lies in people's different attitudes to work. The third and fourth parts elaborate on the two different attitudes, as represented by American professor Gini and British psychologist Oliver James. In the last part, Professor Gini explains the true meaning of "being lazy" it simply means "to take it easy" as suggested by the title of the essay.Vocabulary exercisesI.

Refer to Paragraphs 8 to 10. First of all, we should take immediate actions to cut our consumption of fuels and protect forests. Then we need long-term policies, including developing clean cars.III. Answer the following questions.1. The answer to this question can be found in Paragraph2. People's concern with the global warming is based on fear of low-lying nations being awash in seawater, frequent hurricanes and change of rain and drought patterns.2. Refer to Paragraph3. Humans are responsible for the rising concentration of greenhouse gases for the emission of carbon dioxide from their power plants and cars, the decomposition of their trash, their breeding of cattle and use of fertilizers.3. The concentration of greenhouse gases will trap excessive heat and prevent it from leaving the Earth, hence the global warming.4. The change of climate would bring disastrous consequences to humans. An increase in heat and rain would cause more diseases in equatorial regions. More intense rains would bring about severe flooding and more deaths. And even a moderate rise in sea level could threaten the low-lying islands and nations. And high temperature could lead to more cases of heart disease and respiratory problems.5. A number of actions should be taken. In the short term, we should reduce the emission of heat-trapping gases, mitigate the impacts of global warming through careful planning. In the long run, we should adopt policies that encourage the use of alternative and clean fuels, and stop deforestation.IV. Explain in your words the following sentences taken from the text.1. Global warming will probably be the most serious threat to our Earth, if we do not take into account some other possible incidents, such as another world war, collision of our Earth with some large orbiting planets, or spread of incurable diseases.2. In terms of human health, it is those who live in the poorer countries that will suffer most, because they do not have money to protect themselves against climate changes.Structural analysis of the text P186In the second part there are three sub-ideas. They are focused on the causes of the rising concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere ( Paragraphs 3 and 4), the effect of such concentration on climate changes ( Paragraphs 5 and 6), and the potential threat of global warming to human health and survival (Paragraph7) respectively.Vocabulary exercises Ps186-187I.

Grammar Exercises1. The passive voiceA passive construction occurs when you make the object of an action into the subject of a sentence. That is, whoever orwhatever is performing the action is not the grammatical subject of the sentence.The Passive is formed: Passive Subject + To Be + Past Participle. If the agent is important (the person, company or thing that does the action) , use ―by‖. If it is not definite and does not carry any essential information, it can be omitted.※Only verbs that take an object can be used in the passive voice.e. g. Houses are built.My bike was stolen.Practice:Complete the following sentences with the appropriate form of the verbs given.1. People were surprised to find that an enormous hole ____________ (cut) in the steel door by the burglars.2. It’s high time that he _____________ (tell) to stop behaving like a child.3. As she _____________ (climb) the ladder, it slipped sideways and she fell off it.4. I know a new film _____________ (show) at the cinema these days.5. I know a new film _____________ (show) at the cinema in two days.6. I know a new film _____________ (show) at the cinema recently.Keys:1. had been cut2. was told (The past tense is used to show the hypothetical meaning.)3. was climbing (The active voice is used because the subject of the sentence is the one who performs the action.)4. are being shown (The present continuous tense is used because ―these days‖ refers to a period of time in which an action is continuously being performed.)5. will be shown ( ―In two days‖ refers to sometime in the future.)6. has been shown (The adverb ―recently‖ is a marker of present perfect tense.)2. SubordinationSubordination (abbreviated variously SUBORD, SBRD, SUBR or SR) is a complex syntactic construction in which one or more clauses are dependent on the main clause. Dependent clauses are also called ―subordinate clauses‖.Subordinate clauses are introduced by a subordinating conjunction, such as, after, although, as much as, as long as, as soon as, because, before, if, in order that, lest, since, so that, than, that, though, unless, until, when, whenever, where, wherever, whether, and while, etc.e.g. I don't know if George is awake yet.George overslept because his alarm clock was broken.Practice:Join the two sentences into one, using the words and phrases given.in order that unless as since when until1.
