Unit 1 Language and Language LearningAims of the unitIn this unit we will discuss some general matters about language learning and teaching. We are going to discuss five questions on particular:1.How do we learn language2.What are the common views on language3.What are the common views on language learning4.What are the qualities of a good language teacher5.How can one become a good language teacher1.1How do we learn languagesMach of human behavior is influenced by their experiences. The way language teachers teach in the classroom is to some extent influenced by the way they learned languages. This is especially true in foreign language teaching. Before we discusslanguage learning theories, let us first reflect on our own language learning experience.Task 1Below is a list of interview questions on how people learn a foreign language. In the first column, write down your own responses. Then interview three other students in your class and enter their responses in the other columns. Discuss your findings in group of 4 and draw some conclusion.From the above task, you may have found that 1) people started learning a foreign language at different ages; 2) people havedifferent experiences in learning a foreign language, some find it easy, some find it difficult; 3) people learn languages for different reasons; 4) people learn languages in different ways;5) people have different understandings about language learning; 6) people have different capacities in language learning; 7) learning can be affected by the way it is taught;8) learning is affected by the degree of success one is expected to achieve; and more. Thus the challenge confronting language teaching is how teaching methodology can ensure successful learning by all the learners who have more differences than the commonality.1.2views on languageThe question that all approaches to language teaching should answer is, ‘what is language’The answer to this question is the basis for syllabus designs, teaching methodology, teaching and assessment procedures in the classroom. Different views on language generate different teaching methodologies.Task 2Work in group of 4. Brainstorm possible answer to the question: what is language When you are ready, join another group and share your ideas.To give a concise definition of language has always been difficult for linguists and philogists. Although there has been an enormous amount of research in language in the past century, no authoritative answer has been given to ‘what is language’rather, people have settle down to talk about views of language, seemingly allowing for or accepting different theories for the moment. However, language teachers clearly need to know generally what sort of entity they are dealing with and how the particular language they are teaching fits into that entity (Brown, 1994a). for sample definition of ‘language’ , please refer to Appendix 1.Structural viewThe structural view of language sees language as a linguistic system made up of various subsystems (Larsen-Freeman & Long,1991): the sound system (phonology); the discrete units of meaning produced by sound combinations (morphology), and the system of combining units of meaning for communication (syntax). Each language has a finite number of such structural items. To learn a language means to learn these structural items so as to be able to understand and produce language. When this structural view of language was combined with the stimulus-response principles of behaviorist psychology, the audio-lingual approach to language learning emerged.Functional viewIn the 1960s, British linguists developed a system of categories based on the communicative needs of the learner (Johnson and Marrow, 1981) and proposed a syllabus based on communicative functions. The functional view not only sees languages as a linguistic system but also a means for doing things. Most of our day-to-day language use involves functional activities: offering, suggesting, advising, apologizing, etc. therefore, learners learn a language in order to be able to do with it. In order to perform functions, learners need to know how to combine the grammatical rules and the vocabulary toexpress notions that perform the functions. Examples of notions are the concept of present, past and future time, the expressions of certainty and possibility, the roles of agents, instruments with a sentence, and special relationships between people and objects.Interactional viewThe interactional view considers language to be a communicative tool, whose main use is to build up and maintain social relations between people. Therefore, learners not only need to know the grammar and vocabulary of the language but as importantly they need to know the rules for using them in a whole range of communicative contexts.These three views present an ever wider view of language. The structural view limits knowing a language to knowing its structural rules and vocabulary. The communicative or notional-functional view adds the need to know how to use the rules and vocabulary to do whatever it is one wants to do. The interactional view says that to know how to do what you want to do involves also knowing whether it is appropriate to do,and where, when and how it is appropriate to do it. In order to know this, you have to study the patterns and rules of language above the sentence level to learn how language is used in different speech contexts.The understanding of the nature of language may provide the basis for a particular teaching method (Richard and Rodgers, 1986), but more importantly, it is closely related to the understanding of language learning. If language is considered to have a finite number of structural items, learning the language probably means learning these items. If language is more than just a system of structures, it is more importantly a tool then to learn the language learning. If language is more than just a system of structures, it is more importantly a tool, then to learn the language means to use it, rather than just study what it is and how it is formed. The next section discusses some current theories about language learning.Views on Language learning and learning in generalA language learning theory underlying an approach or method usually answers two questions; 1) What are the psycholinguisticand cognitive processes involved in language learning 2) What are the conditions that need to be met in order for these learning processes to be activatedTask3Work in groups of 4. Brainstorm the answers to the two questions stated above.When you are ready, join another group and share your ideas.Although these two questions have never been satisfactorily answered, a vast amount of research has been done from all aspects. The research can be broadly divided into process-oriented theories and condition-oriented theories. Process-oriented theories are concerned with how the mind organizes new information such as habit formation, induction, making inference, hypothesis testing and generalization. Condition-oriented theories emphasize the nature of the human and physical context in which language learning takes place,such as the number of students, the kind of input learners receive, and the atmosphere. Some researchers attempt to formulate teaching approaches directly from these theories. For example, the Natural Approach, Total Physical Response, and the Silent Way are based on one or more dimensions of processes and conditions. At this level, it is too early to formulate a specific approach, because some aspects are still too vague, for example, what is done in these processes.Behaviorist theoryThe behaviorist theory of language learning was initiated by behavioural psychologist Skinner, who applied Watson and Raynor’s theory of conditioning to the way human acquire language (Harmer, 1983). Based on their experiments, Watson and Raynor formulated a stimulus-response theory of psychology. In this theory all complex forms of behavior—motions, habits and such—are seen as composed of simple muscular and glandular elements that can be observed and measured. They claimed that emotional reactions are learned in much the same way as other skills. The key point of the theory of conditioning is that ‘you can train an animal to do anything (within reason) if youfollow a certain procedure which has three major stages, stimulus, response, and reinforcement’ (Harmer, 1983:30).Based on the theory of conditioning, Skinner suggested that language is also a form of behavior. It can be learned the same way as an animal is trained to respond to stimuli. This theory of learning is referred to as behaviorism, which was adopted for some time by the language teaching profession, particularly in the . One influential result is the audio-lingual method, which involves endless’listen and repeat’drilling activities. The idea of this method is that language is learned by constant repetition and the reinforcement of the teacher. Mistakes were immediately corrected, and correct utterances were immediately praised. This method is still used in many parts of the world today.Cognitive theoryThe term cognitivism is often used loosely to describe methods in which students are asked to think rather than simply repeat. It seems to be largely the result of Noam Chomsky’s reaction to Skinner’s behaviorist theory, which led to the revival ofstructural linguistics. The key point of Chomsky’s theory is reflected in his most famous question: if all language is a learned behavior, how can a child produce a sentence that never been said by others beforeAccording to Chomsky, language is not a form of behavior, it is an intricate rule-based system and a large part of language acquisition is the learning of this system. There are a finite number of grammatical rules in the system and with a knowledge of these an infinite number of sentences can be produced. A language learner acquires language competence which enables him to produce language.Though Chomsky’s theory is not directly applied in language teaching, it has had a great impact on the profession. One influential idea is that students should be allowed to create their own sentences based on their understanding of certain rules. This idea is clearly in opposition to the audio-lingual method.Although people are pretty much still in the dark as to whatlanguage is and how language is learned, it is believed that general knowledge about language and language learning will help language teachers do a better job.Constructivist theoryThe constructivist theory believes that learning is a process in which the learner constructs meaning based on his/her own experiences and what he/she already knows. Although constructivist theory was not developed for the understanding of language learning, it is widely applicable to learning in general. It is believed that education is used to develop the mind, not just to rote recall what is learned. John Dewey provided a foundation for constructivism. He believed that teaching should be built based on what learners already knew and engage learners in learning activities. Teachers need to design environments and interact with learners to foster inventive, creative, critical learners. Therefore, teachers must balance an understanding of the habits, characteristics as well as personalities of individual learners with an understanding of the means of arousing learner’s interests and curiosity for learning (Archambault, 1964).Socio-constructivist theorySimilar to constructivist theory, socio-constructivist theory represented by Vygotsky (1978) emphasizes interaction and engagement with the target language in a social context based on the concept of ‘Zone of Proximal Development’ (ZPD) and scaffolding. In other words, learning is best achieved through the dynamic interaction between the teacher and the learner and between learners. With the teacher’s scaffolding through questions and explanations, or with a more capable peer’s support, the learner can move to a higher level of understanding and extend his/her skills and knowledge and knowledge to the fullest potential.What makes a good language teacherSome people with an excellent command of a foreign language may not be able to teach the language well while others with a general command of the language can teach it very effectively. What do you think might account for this phenomenonTask 4Work in groups. Reflect on your own learning experience from early school years to the university. Have you had an excellent English teacher Try to identify as many qualities as possible of your best English teacher(s). Note down all the qualities that you think are important for a good English teacher.It is clear that whether someone can become a good foreign language teacher does not solely depend on his\her command of the language. There are a variety of elements that contributes to the qualities of a good language teacher. These elements can be categorized into three groups: ethic devotion, professional qualities and personal styles (Parrot, 1993).Task 5Ethic devotion, professional qualities and personal styles jointly contribute to the making of a good English teacher. All the adjectives in the box below could be used to characterizethese three aspects.1. Work in groups of 4 and decide which adjectives describeethic devotion, which describe personal styles and which describe professional qualities. Please write your answers on a separate piece of paper.2. Add any adjectives to the list which describe furtherqualities that you feel are missing.3.These adjectives are intended to describe positive qualitiesor styles. Do you feel that any of them could have a negative side as well If yes, in what way For example, an authoritative teacher may make the students feel assured, but may also make the student less free to disagree with him\her.(Adapted from Tasks for Language Teachers, Martin Parrot, 1993)From the above activities we can see that a good English teacher should have ethic devotion, certain desirable personal styles, and more importantly, he or she should have necessary professional qualities. These three aspects constitute the professional competence of a good English teacher. A person who has a good command of English is not necessarily a good teacher because he has only one of the elements of professional competence.It is assumed that all responsible English teachers have ethic devotion, and they are supposed to make their personal stylescompatible with their work. These two aspects, which are beyond the scope of this book, can be achieved as long as the teacher himself\herself has the willingness to do so.A question that many teachers often ask is: I like my job, and I love the students, but how can I become a good English teacher Our answer is that they need professional competence, which we are going to discuss in the next section.1.5How can one become a good language teacherThe most important and most difficult part of the making of a good language teacher is the development of professional competence, which is the state or quality of being adequately qualified for the profession, and armed with a specific range of skills, strategies, knowledge, and ability.Task 6Work in pairs and discuss how one can become a professionally competent teacher of English. For example, we have to develop our English proficiency first and also we may need to learn fromexperienced teachers through observations. What else can you think of Make a list and then pool all your ideas together to find out about your common beliefs.A language teacher’s professional competence is much more difficult than a driver’s skill to handle a car, and is more complicated than a student’s competence of speaking foreign language. It involves more factors and longer learning time, and may never be finished.Some people think teaching is a craft; that is, a novice teacher can learn the profession by imitating the experts’techniques, just like an apprentice. Others hold the view that teaching is an applied science, based on scientific knowledge and experimentation. By making a compromise between these two views, Wallace (1991) uses a “reflective model” to demonstrate the development of professional competence. The following model is an adapted version to illustrate the process of becoming a professionally competent teacher.Figure Teacher’s professional development(Adapted from Wallace, 1991:15)From the above model, we can see the development of professional competence for a language teacher involves Stage 1, Stage 2 and Goal. The first stage is language development. All English teachers are supposed to have a sound command of English. As language is the subject matter for language teachers and also because language is always changing, language development can never come to an end.The second stage is the most crucial stage and it is more complicated because it involves three sub-stages: learning, practice, and reflection. The learning stage is actually the purposeful preparation that a language teacher normally receives before he\she starts the practice of teaching. This preparation can include:1. learning from others’ experiences (empirical knowledgegained through reading and observations)2. learning the received knowledge (language learning theories,educational psychology, language teaching methodology, etc.)3.learning from one’s own experiences as a learnerBoth experiential knowledge (others’and one’s own) and received knowledge are useful when a teacher goes to practice. This is the combination of ‘craft’ and ‘applied science’knowledge. The learning stage is followed by practice. The term ‘practice’ can be used in two senses. In one sense, it is a short period of time assigned to do teaching practice as partof one’s pre-service education, usually under the supervision of instructors. This practice is also called pseudo practice. The other sense of ‘practice’is the real classroom teaching that a teacher undertakes after he/she finishes formal education.Teachers benefit from practice if they keep on reflecting on what they have been doing (Stanely, 1999). It should be noted that teachers reflect on their work not only after they finish a certain period of practice, but also while they are doing the practice.When the would-be teachers(trainees) are doing pseudo practice, they are often trying out ideas that they have learned in a methodology class. Therefore, they are likely to reflect on how well a certain idea or technique works and often their instructors may require them to do so. The pseudo practice is beneficial only if the student teachers take reflections seriously. The most difficult thing is to keep on reflecting on one’s work when one moves on to real classroom teaching.Ideally, a teacher should be able to attain his/her professional competence after some period of practice and reflection as shown in Figure . However, professional competence as an ultimate goal does not seem to have an end. With the ever-deepening of our understanding of teaching and learning, and with the ever changing needs of the society, of education, of students, and of the teaching requirements, one must keep on learning, practicing and reflecting. Actually professional competence is’ a moving target or horizon, towards which professionals travel all their professional life but which is never finally attained ‘. (Wallace, 1991:58)Task 7Work in groups. Discuss possible answers to the following questions in relation to the model presented in Figure .An overview of the bookThis second edition of A Course in English Language Teaching has allowed us the opportunity to expand the original 14 units into 18 in order to include topics reflecting the recent development in English language teaching both at home and abroad, to revisit a number of areas, to expand an clarify points that we felt were not sufficiently clear in the first edition, and to improve the pedagogical usefulness of the text.Overall, the book aims at introducing practical methods to teachers of English as a foreign language with some basic theories presented in the first two units. It is hoped that classroom teachers or would-be teachers will not simply copy or imitate what are suggested but be able to choose or adapt with an understanding of why.Unit 1 serves as an introduction for setting the scene for this methodology course. It discusses issues concerning views on language and language learning or learning in general with the belief that such views will affect teachers’ways of teaching and thus learners’ ways of learning. The qualities of a goodlanguage teacher is also discussed in order to raise the participants’awareness of what is required for a good English teacher.Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) and Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT) have been the most influential language teaching approaches in the past two decades and they have proven to be effective in a variety of language teaching contexts. In Unit 2 we introduce the basic principles of CLT and activities followed by an introduction to task-based approach. It is intended that most of the methods that we introduce in the remaining units will, to some extent, follow a communicative approach and task-based language teaching.Unit 3 is a new unit which focuses on the new National English Curriculum. It begins with a brief overview of the history of English language teaching in China followed by tasks and discussions on the goals, objectives, and design of the new English curriculum and ends with discussions on the challenges facing teachers today.We have arranged lesson planning and classroom management as the next two units of the book-Unit 4 and Unit 5 respectively. With regard to these two units, the new edition has replaced some previous lesson plan samples and added some relevant issues, . giving effective instructions, asking effective questions, and dealing with students’errors in the classroom. To have these two parts in the early units, our intention is that the reader will use what is covered in these two parts in the early units, our intention is that the reader will use what is covered in these two units to design mini classroom activities for the teaching of knowledge and skills that come in later units.Like the first edition of the book, Units 6, 7 and 8 focus on the teaching of language components, that is, the teaching of pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while Units 9, 10, 11, 12 focus on the teaching of four skills of language, namely, listening, speaking, reading and writing, with Unit 13 discussing the integration of the four skills. Some new examples and new points are added to all these units in the new edition. It should be noted that neither the language components nor the language skills are taught in an isolatedfashion. We present the teaching of these language components and skills in separate units so that there is a clearer focus of discussion. In classroom teaching, we hope teachers will be able to integrate all areas.Unit 14 is about moral education. This is a new unit aiming at raising teachers’ awareness of the scope available for moral education in language teaching so that teachers will be able to create opportunities and use relevant materials and activities to help students form positive social values towards life and work.Unit 15 deals with language assessment. We have avoided ‘testing’ and ‘examination’ as our unit title because we believe ‘assessment’ is a broader concept. In this unit we focus on classroom assessment rather than standard tests. Research evidence shows that classroom-based assessment provides a better evaluation of what the students have achieved during the course of study.Units 16 and 17 are also new units. Unit 16 is about learnerdifferences and learner training. As the purpose of teaching is for learning to take place, learners will need to play a major role in the learning process. We think as teachers we need to understand learners and the differences among them so that appropriate methods and techniques can be selected or designed to cater for learner needs. Also, we teach in order not to teach. In this sense, we need to help learners develop awareness of different learning strategies and learn to take responsibility for their own learning . Unit 17 focuses on using and creating resources. It discusses how to use the available resources as well as how to explore hidden resources for teaching and learning.Unit 18 introduces the reader to the most basic things in the evaluation, selection and adaptation of textbooks used in language teaching and learning. In the future, classroom teachers will have to take more responsibility and be given more autonomy in selecting and adopting ELT textbooks for their students.Throughout the book, we provide a number of tasks for each unit.The tasks usually follow a discussion and are aimed at providing the reader with opportunities to relate theory to practice. Most of the tasks are open-ended, that is, they do not have fixed answers or solutions. Sometimes, discussions following the task provide the authors’ further comments. Occasionally, some tasks seem to need more ‘concrete’ solutions. In that case, we remove the solutions to Appendix 1 at the back of the book. We intend that users of the book should solve the problems themselves before referring to the authors’suggested solutions.Most of the tasks involve group work or pair work. If the book is used in class, we consider it very important for students to work in pairs or groups so that they can share knowledge and experience. Individual readers may find it inconvenient to perform the task. We suggest that they discuss the problems with their colleagues wherever possible.。

Each account represents a specific type of financial transaction, such as assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, and expenses.2. Journal Entries: Journal entries are the first step in the accounting process. They record the details of financial transactions, includingthe date, accounts affected, and the amount of the transaction.3. General Ledger: The general ledger is a collection of all the journal entries made during a specific period. It provides a summary of the transactions for each account and helps in the preparation of financial statements.4. Trial Balance: A trial balance is a list of all the accounts andtheir balances from the general ledger. It ensures that the total debits equal the total credits, indicating that the accounting entries are accurate.5. Financial Statements: Financial statements are the end result of the accounting process. They include the balance sheet, income statement,and cash flow statement, which provide an overview of the financial performance and position of a business.6. Internal Controls: Internal controls are policies and procedures designed to ensure the accuracy and reliability of financial information.

In this article, we will provide an overview of accounting systems, including their purpose, types, principles, and the process of financial reporting.I. Purpose of Accounting SystemsThe primary purpose of accounting systems is to provide accurate and reliable financial information to various stakeholders, including investors, creditors, employees, and management. By tracking financial transactions, accounting systems help businesses in the following ways:1. Measuring financial performance: Accounting systems enable businesses to measure their financial performance by analyzing revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities.2. Planning and budgeting: Accounting systems provide historical data that can be used to forecast future financial performance and make informed decisions regarding budgeting and resource allocation.3. Compliance with legal and regulatory requirements: Accounting systems help businesses comply with various legal and regulatory requirements, such as tax laws, financial reporting standards, and accounting principles.4. Facilitating decision-making: Accounting systems provide management with the necessary information to make informed decisions about the business's future direction.II. Types of Accounting SystemsThere are several types of accounting systems, each with its unique characteristics and applications. The most common types include:1. Cash accounting: This system records financial transactions when cash is received or paid. It is simple and straightforward but may not provide a complete picture of a business's financial health.2. Accrual accounting: This system records financial transactions when they occur, regardless of when cash is received or paid. It provides a more accurate representation of a business's financial performance and is widely used by businesses.3. Fund accounting: This system is used by not-for-profit organizations to track financial resources and expenditures. It ensures compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.4. Managerial accounting: This system is used by management to make informed decisions about the business. It focuses on internal financial information and provides detailed reports on various aspects of the business.III. Principles of AccountingAccounting principles are the guidelines that govern the preparation and presentation of financial statements. The most widely accepted accounting principles include:1. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP): GAAP is a set of standards and guidelines that provide a framework for preparing andpresenting financial statements. These principles ensure consistency and comparability among financial statements.2. International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS): IFRS is a set of accounting standards developed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). These standards are used in many countries and are designed to provide a global framework for financial reporting.3. Cost principle: This principle requires businesses to record assets and liabilities at their historical cost, rather than their market value.4. Revenue recognition principle: This principle requires businesses to recognize revenue when it is earned, rather than when it is received.IV. Financial Reporting ProcessThe financial reporting process involves the preparation, presentation, and dissemination of financial statements. The steps in the process include:1. Identifying financial transactions: The first step is to identify and record all financial transactions that affect the business's financial position.2. Recording transactions: Once transactions are identified, they must be recorded in the accounting system using the appropriate accounting principles.3. Summarizing transactions: The recorded transactions are then summarized in financial statements, such as the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement.4. Analyzing financial statements: Financial statements are analyzed to determine the business's financial performance and position.5. Disseminating financial information: The financial information is then disseminated to stakeholders, such as investors, creditors, and employees.ConclusionAccounting systems are essential tools for businesses to track their financial transactions, make informed decisions, and ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. By understanding the purpose, types, principles, and process of financial reporting, businesses can effectively manage their financial resources and achieve their goals.第3篇Accounting systems play a crucial role in the financial management of businesses and organizations worldwide.

These is also great variation in each individual’s response to treatment and this can, on occasions, affect the final result.RiskAs with any form of treatment there are some risks associated with orthodontic treatment. While every effort is taken to minimize these risks, you, the patient, can help to minimize them by following treatment advice carefully and fully.1. Tooth decay and enamel damageTooth decay and enamel damage can occur if sugary or acid foods are eaten and tooth brushing is not maintained at a high standard. This damage can occur at any time but is more likely when fixed appliances are attached to the teeth.2. Root resorptionOrthodontic tooth movement involves light pressure being placed on the teeth and roots. In some patients changes such as root shortening may occur. The causes of this are not well understood and it is not always possible to identify susceptible patients in advance. In the majority of cases where this occurs there are so significant consequences.3. HeadgearIf not worn correctly, headgear may cause injury. It is imperative that the written instructions are necessary when using a headgear appliance.4. Joint discomfortSome individuals may experience jaw joint discomfort during orthodontic treatment. This is usually a transitory phase and indeed such symptoms also occur in patients who are not wearing orthodontic appliances.5. Post–treatment changesThroughout life the position of teeth alters regardless of orthodontic treatment.Some aspects of orthodontic treatment are particularly prone to post–treatment changes.Following fixed appliance treatment retainers will need to be worn. There are other changes, particularly the degree of crowding of the lower incisors, that may progressively alter throughout life.6. Medical historyGeneral medical pro blems may influence an individual’s response to orthodontic treatment. It is important to inform your orthodontist of any changes in your medical health.Instructions for Patients Wearing Fixed AppliancesYou are now wearing a fixed appliance. You must take great care it.You must:1.Clean your teeth with a brush, immediately after every meal and before going to bed. If yourteeth are not kept clean damage will occur.2.Avoid eating hard foods (such as crusty bread), and sticky food(such as toffee and nougat).3.Since it will be necessary to use a toothbrush after eating, most patients find it best to avoidsnacks taken between main meals.4.Contact the orthodontist if the appliance hurts, becomes loose, or if any part however small isbroken.5.Continue with your routine dental visits.Initially there will be some difficulty in eating and speaking but this will soon pass.You may experience some discomfort for a few hours following the placement of new archwires. This may be eased with a mild analgesicQuestion:1.

Now we will look at dentistry as a possible profession for you.Can you answer "yes" to the five questions below? If so, you have passed a simple, but very important, test --a sort of entrance requirement for dental school.Are you skillful with your hands?Do you like to work with people?Is your health good?Does science interest you?Would six years of college be alright with you?Let us look at the first four questions right nowClever Hands. To even get into dental school, you must pass a test of "manual dexterit". A dentist must use his hands skillfully in very small spaces, and use them with controlled strength and gentleness.If you are very good at precise, detailed work with your hands --and like such work -- but cannot answer "yes" to the other questions.Working With People. Many people choose dentistry because they do not like to work for other people, but want to be their own boss. Working with people is, of course, something quite different. Dentists work with people under very difficult conditions every day. They need patience to put up with a patient's needless worries. They need calm to match his anxiety. Dentists must also have sympathy -- or at least a sympathetic manner -- like a physician's "bedside manner".Suppose you do not like taking all these pains with people. You could still enter dentistry if you chose a proper specialty. For instance, oral surgeons and oral pathologists have very little contact with patients. Dental teachers need to communicate with people, but in a much more relaxed way. If you are solitaryminded, you could be a research scientist.Good Health. Dentists stand on their feet a lot. They often work in awkward positions. They need a lot of stamina. Robust general health is a prime requirement for dentistry.Dentists need particularly good eyesight. This does not mean that you cannot wear glasses. With or without glasses, you have to identify some very small changes and very tiny structures in some corners that are difficult to see.The Scientific Mind. Do you like the science courses you have had in school? Do you enjoy the science columns and features in the news magazines?Good grades in all your subjects are important. They show that you have two qualities that you may get into dental field. Those qualities are intelligence and persistence.1. what would be the best title for the text? CA. A Test for CollegeB. Features for College StudentsC. Is Dentistry for YouD. The Benefits of Good Healthy and Skillfull Hands2. It is indicated in paragraph 2 that___. DA. the five questions are a test of every dental schoolB. if you say "yes' to the five questions you will be a dentistC. if you say "yes' to the five questions, you will get an entrance for a dental school that you wantD. the five questions are a simple ,but very important test for students who want to go to dental school3 dentists don’t have to possess _____ BA skillful handsB pass all the testsC good healthD group spirit4 which one is wrong according to the text? AA I wear glasses so I can’t be a dentistB dentistry is related to scienceC to be a dentist need intelligence and persistenceD not all people is suitable to be a dentist5 The word “stamina” is closest in meaning to ______. Bknowledge B endurance C characteristics D muscle翻译The pulp. The pulp consists of loose connective tissue and carries the blood, lymphatic and nerve supply to the tooth. Where it meets the dentine ,the surface of the pulp is covered by a layer of odontoblasts. These are columnar cells with oval nuclei, and each cell has a process that lies within a corresponding tubule in the dentine. Immediately internal to the odontoblast layer there is a narrow cell-free zone.Dentine. Physically and chemically dentine is very similar to bone, consisting of 30 percent organic material. As in bone ,the organic fraction consists of collagen fibrils embedded in a mucopolysaccharide cementing substance, and the inorganic fraction consists mainly of calcium phosphates in the form of apatite crystals. Unlike bone ,however, dentine contains no cell bodies but only cell processes, those of the odontoblasts ,in the dentinal tubule .The dentinal tubules are 2to3 um diameter and each runs through the whole thickness of the dentine from the cell body of the odontoblast to the surface of The dentine. There are cross-communications between the tubules, containing anastomosing branches of the odontoblast processes. Where calcification is incomplete, the separate globules can be seen, with the uncalcified or hypocalcified ground substance in between them. Such areas are referred to as interglobular dentine.Enamel. Mature enamel can be studied only in ground sections unless special methods are employed, since it is completely removed by routine histological decalcification. The inorganic material is an apatite and small organic fraction is mainly of keratinous nature. Enamel consists of rods or prisms in an interprismatic substance that is slightly less mineralized than the rods themselves. Each rod runs from the enamel-dentine junction through the whole thickness of the enamel to its surface, following a slightly wavy course. The rods have a “fish-scale” appearance in cross-section, with an average diameter of 4 um.牙髓。

人数统计 英语
人数统计英语Population statistics play a crucial role in understanding the dynamics of human societies and informing decision-making processes. The study of population data provides valuable insights into the size, composition, and trends of a particular population, which can have far-reaching implications for various aspects of social, economic, and political life.One of the fundamental aspects of population statistics is the measurement of population size. This involves collecting data on the total number of individuals residing within a defined geographic area, such as a country, a region, or a city. Population size is a crucial metric that helps governments, policymakers, and researchers to plan and allocate resources effectively. It informs decisions related to infrastructure development, housing, healthcare, education, and social welfare programs.Another important component of population statistics is the analysis of demographic characteristics. This includes factors such as age, gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. Understanding thecomposition of a population can help identify specific needs and challenges that different groups may face. For instance, an aging population may require increased investment in healthcare and social services, while a growing youth population may necessitate the expansion of educational opportunities and job creation.Population growth and change are also crucial aspects of population statistics. Demographers study birth rates, death rates, and migration patterns to understand the factors that drive population dynamics. This information is essential for forecasting future population trends and anticipating the potential impacts on various sectors, such as the labor market, housing, and the environment.One of the most significant applications of population statistics is in the field of public policy and planning. Governments and international organizations use population data to develop and implement policies that address pressing social, economic, and environmental challenges. For example, population statistics can inform decisions related to resource allocation, infrastructure development, and the design of social welfare programs.Furthermore, population statistics play a crucial role in the private sector. Businesses rely on population data to understand consumer behavior, target marketing strategies, and make informed decisions about investments and expansion plans. Accurate populationstatistics can help companies identify emerging markets, assess the potential demand for their products or services, and optimize their operations accordingly.In the realm of academic research, population statistics provide a foundation for a wide range of studies in fields such as sociology, economics, geography, and public health. Researchers use population data to investigate topics ranging from demographic transitions and urbanization to the impact of social policies and environmental factors on population dynamics.It is important to note that the collection and analysis of population statistics are not without challenges. Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of population data can be complex, particularly in regions with limited resources or where certain populations may be underrepresented or difficult to reach. Ethical considerations, such as privacy and data protection, also need to be carefully navigated when working with population statistics.Despite these challenges, the importance of population statistics cannot be overstated. As the world's population continues to grow and evolve, the need for robust and comprehensive population data will only become more pressing. By understanding the size, composition, and trends of populations, policymakers, researchers, and the private sector can make more informed decisions anddevelop more effective strategies to address the pressing social, economic, and environmental issues facing our global community.In conclusion, population statistics are a critical tool for understanding and shaping the future of our societies. From informing public policy to driving business decisions and academic research, the insights provided by population data are essential for addressing the complex challenges of our time and ensuring the well-being of people around the world.。

年轻人和中年人使用手机的区别英语作文
年轻人和中年人使用手机的区别英语作文全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1The Smartphone Generation GapSmartphones have become an integral part of our daily lives, serving as a multifunctional tool that connects us to the world. However, the way we utilize these devices often varies significantly across generations, particularly between young people and middle-aged individuals. As a student observing these differences, it's fascinating to witness how our perspectives and usage patterns diverge.For young people, smartphones are an extension of their identities, deeply ingrained in their daily routines and social interactions. We were born into a world where technology was already ubiquitous, and smartphones have been a constant companion since our formative years. From an early age, we've been exposed to the endless possibilities these devices offer, shaping our perception of communication, entertainment, and productivity.One of the most striking differences lies in our approach to social media and instant messaging. Young people are avid users of platforms like Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok, where we share our lives through photos, videos, and short-form content. We thrive on instant gratification, seeking immediate validation and connection through likes, comments, and shares. Instant messaging apps like WhatsApp and Messenger are our primary means of communication, facilitating real-time conversations and group chats with friends and family.In contrast, middle-aged individuals often view smartphones as tools for practical purposes, such as staying connected with loved ones, managing work responsibilities, or accessing information. While they may engage with social media, their usage tends to be more restrained and focused on specific platforms like Facebook or LinkedIn. They are more likely to prioritize privacy and discretion when sharing personal information online.Additionally, young people are more inclined to multitask and rapidly switch between different apps and functions on their smartphones. We seamlessly transition from watching a video on YouTube to chatting with friends on Snapchat, and then browsing the latest news or memes on Twitter. This constant fluxof information and stimuli has become second nature to us, shaping our attention spans and cognitive processes.Middle-aged users, on the other hand, often approach their smartphones with a more focused mindset. They tend to utilize specific apps for specific purposes, such as checking emails, browsing the web, or accessing productivity tools. Their usage patterns are more deliberate and intentional, reflecting their experience and maturity in navigating the digital realm.Another noteworthy difference lies in our attitudes towards mobile gaming and entertainment. Young people are avid consumers of mobile games, often engaging in multiplayer experiences or casual games that can be played in short bursts. We also heavily rely on our smartphones for streaming music, podcasts, and video content, constantly seeking new forms of entertainment and stimulation.In contrast, middle-aged individuals may view mobile gaming as a casual pastime or a means of relaxation after a long day of work. They are more likely to engage in traditional forms of entertainment, such as reading books or watching movies on their tablets or laptops, rather than exclusively relying on their smartphones.Furthermore, young people are often early adopters of emerging technologies and trends, eagerly embracing the latest apps, features, and gadgets. We are naturally curious and adaptable, constantly seeking new ways to enhance our digital experiences. Middle-aged users, however, may be more cautious and selective in their adoption of new technologies, preferring to stick with familiar and proven apps and services.Despite these differences, there are also areas where young people and middle-aged individuals converge in their smartphone usage. Both generations rely heavily on navigation apps like Google Maps or Waze to navigate unfamiliar areas or avoid traffic congestion. Additionally, mobile banking and payment apps have become increasingly popular across all age groups, facilitating convenient financial transactions and money management.Moreover, the lines between generations are becoming increasingly blurred as technology continues to evolve and permeate various aspects of our lives. Middle-aged individuals who have embraced the digital age may exhibit usage patterns similar to their younger counterparts, while some young people may adopt more practical and focused approaches to their smartphone usage.Ultimately, the differences in smartphone usage between young people and middle-aged individuals reflect the diverse experiences, priorities, and perspectives that shape our interactions with technology. As a student witnessing these contrasts firsthand, it is essential to recognize and appreciate the unique ways in which different generations engage with their devices.By understanding these generational differences, we can foster better communication, bridge gaps, and create more inclusive digital experiences that cater to the needs and preferences of all age groups. Additionally, it encourages us to be mindful of our own smartphone habits, striking a balance between connectivity, productivity, and overall well-being.In a world where technology is rapidly evolving, the smartphone generation gap serves as a reminder of the dynamic and ever-changing landscape in which we navigate. It challenges us to adapt, learn from one another, and embrace the richness of diverse perspectives, ultimately shaping a future where technology enhances our lives in meaningful and inclusive ways.篇2The Generational Divide in Smartphone UsageSmartphones have become an integral part of daily life for people of all ages. However, there are distinct differences in how younger and older generations approach and utilize these ubiquitous devices. As a student observing the habits of my peers and those of the middle-aged adults around me, I've noticed some fascinating contrasts in their smartphone usage patterns.For starters, let's talk about the primary purposes for which each age group uses their smartphones. Young people, having grown up in a digital world, tend to view their phones asmulti-functional tools. We use them for everything from communication and entertainment to education andself-expression. Social media, streaming services, gaming, and creative apps are among the most popular applications for teenagers and young adults.On the other hand, middle-aged individuals often have a more pragmatic and utilitarian approach to their smartphones. While they certainly engage with social media and entertainment apps, their primary focus seems to be on productivity and organization. Apps for managing calendars, emails, finances, and work-related tasks are heavily utilized by this demographic.The way each generation interacts with their devices also differs significantly. Young people have developed a remarkable dexterity and fluency when it comes to navigating smartphones. We can multitask effortlessly, switching between apps, typing with our thumbs at lightning speed, and even using multiple apps simultaneously. This level of comfort and familiarity with the technology is a byproduct of growing up with smartphones as a constant presence in our lives.In contrast, many middle-aged users seem to approach their smartphones with a bit more caution and deliberation. They tend to focus on one app or task at a time, often using their index fingers to navigate and type. While they may not possess the same level of dexterity as their younger counterparts, they make up for it with a more methodical and structured approach to smartphone usage.Another notable distinction lies in the realm of social media and communication. For young people, social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat are vital tools for staying connected with friends, sharing experiences, and expressing themselves. We constantly document our lives through photos, videos, and stories, seeking validation and engagement from our online communities.Middle-aged users, on the other hand, tend to have a more reserved and practical approach to social media. While they may engage with platforms like Facebook and Twitter, their primary use is often for staying in touch with family members, sharing updates, and accessing news and information. They are generally less focused on the constant sharing and validation that characterizes the social media habits of younger generations.When it comes to privacy and security concerns, there is also a noticeable gap between the two age groups. Young people, having grown up in a world where sharing personal information online is the norm, often have a more relaxed attitude towards privacy. We are more likely to share our locations, personal details, and daily activities without much thought.Middle-aged users, however, tend to be more cautious and vigilant about their online privacy. They are more likely to adjust their privacy settings, limit the personal information they share, and exercise greater discretion when it comes to their digital footprint. This heightened awareness of privacy and security risks is likely a result of their life experiences and a greater understanding of the potential consequences of oversharing.Lastly, it's worth mentioning the differing attitudes towards smartphone etiquette and boundaries. Young people oftenstruggle to maintain a healthy balance between their digital lives and their physical surroundings. We have a tendency to be glued to our screens, even in social situations or during classes, sometimes at the expense of real-world connections and focus.Middle-aged individuals, on the other hand, appear to have a stronger grasp on setting boundaries and practicing smartphone etiquette. They are more likely to silence their devices during meetings, meals, or other important events, prioritizing face-to-face interactions and respecting social norms.In conclusion, the differences in smartphone usage between young people and middle-aged individuals are vast and multifaceted. While both groups rely heavily on these devices, their motivations, habits, and perspectives diverge significantly. Young people embrace smartphones as extensions of themselves, using them for a wide range of purposes, from social connections to self-expression. Middle-aged users, on the other hand, tend to view smartphones as tools for productivity, organization, and pragmatic communication.As technology continues to evolve and permeate every aspect of our lives, it will be fascinating to observe how these generational differences adapt and potentially converge overtime. Perhaps the younger generation will learn to strike a better balance and adopt some of the caution and boundaries exhibited by their elders. Conversely, middle-aged individuals may become more adept at navigating the ever-changing digital landscape, embracing new forms of self-expression and online communities.Ultimately, smartphones have become integral to our daily lives, transcending age and generational divides. However, the ways in which we engage with these devices remain deeply influenced by our life experiences, priorities, and cultural contexts. By understanding and appreciating these differences, we can bridge the generational gap and foster a more harmonious coexistence in our increasingly connected world.篇3The Generational Divide in Smartphone UsageSmartphones have become an indispensable part of our daily lives, but the way different age groups use these devices can vary significantly. As a student, I've had the opportunity to observe firsthand the contrasting behaviors of young people and middle-aged individuals when it comes to their smartphone habits. This essay will explore the distinct patterns andpreferences that characterize these two generations' interactions with their mobile devices.To begin with, it's important to acknowledge the inherent advantage that young people possess in terms of their familiarity with technology. Having grown up in a world saturated with digital advancements, we are often referred to as "digital natives." From a very early age, we've been exposed to smartphones, tablets, and various other gadgets, allowing us to develop an intuitive understanding of their functionality and capabilities.One of the most striking differences between young people and middle-aged individuals lies in our primary use cases for smartphones. For many in my generation, smartphones are primarily tools for social connection and entertainment. We live our lives on social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat, constantly sharing updates, consuming content, and engaging with our peers in a virtual realm. Gaming, streaming movies and TV shows, and listening to music are also high on our list of smartphone activities.In contrast, middle-aged individuals tend to approach their smartphones with a more pragmatic and utilitarian mindset. While they certainly engage in social media and entertainmentto some degree, their smartphone usage often revolves around productivity and organization. They rely heavily on their devices for tasks like managing calendars, keeping track of schedules, checking emails, and accessing work-related documents and apps.Another notable difference lies in the level of multitasking and attention span exhibited by each generation. Young people are adept at rapidly switching between multiple apps and simultaneously engaging in various activities on their smartphones. We might be scrolling through Instagram while listening to a podcast and occasionally responding to text messages, all within a matter of minutes. This ability to multitask and divide our attention across multiple digital spheres is a hallmark of our generation.Middle-aged individuals, on the other hand, often display a more focused and intentional approach to their smartphone usage. They are more likely to dedicate their attention to a single task or app at a time, whether it's responding to emails, researching a topic, or using a productivity app. This concentrated approach may stem from a desire for efficiency or a preference for minimizing distractions.The ways in which young people and middle-aged individuals approach smartphone customization and personalization also differ. For many young people, their smartphones are extensions of their identities and personal styles. We meticulously curate our home screens, app layouts, and wallpapers to reflect our aesthetic preferences and personalities. Customizing our devices with unique cases, skins, and accessories is also a common practice.In contrast, middle-aged individuals often prioritize functionality over personalization. Their smartphone setups tend to be more streamlined and minimalistic, focusing on the apps and features they deem most essential for their daily tasks and routines. While they may appreciate a visually pleasing interface, their primary concern is often the practicality and usability of their devices.It's also worth noting the disparities in the adoption and embrace of emerging smartphone technologies and trends. Young people are generally more enthusiastic about exploring new apps, features, and gadgets as they become available. We eagerly anticipate and experiment with the latest augmented reality filters, mobile gaming trends, and innovative apps that capture our interest.Middle-aged individuals, while not necessarily averse to new technologies, may approach them with more caution and skepticism. They tend to favor familiarity and established practices, adopting new features and apps only after their utility and reliability have been proven. This hesitance may stem from a desire for stability or a lack of familiarity with rapidly evolving technologies.Despite these differences, it's important to recognize that these generational divides are not absolute. There are exceptions on both sides, with some middle-aged individuals embracing the latest smartphone trends and some young people preferring a more minimalistic and pragmatic approach. Additionally, as technology continues to evolve and younger generations mature, these patterns may shift and evolve over time.In conclusion, the ways in which young people andmiddle-aged individuals use their smartphones reflect broader generational differences in attitudes, priorities, and behaviors. While young people primarily leverage their devices for social connection, entertainment, and self-expression, middle-aged individuals often approach their smartphones as productivity tools and organizational aids. These contrasting approaches highlight the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of ourrelationship with technology, shaped by the unique experiences and perspectives of each generation.。

对于人工智能看法的英语作文高中
对于人工智能看法的英语作文高中Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly advancing technology that has the potential to revolutionize various aspects of our lives. While some people view AI as a groundbreaking innovation with countless benefits, others have concerns about its potential negative impacts. In this essay, I will discuss my thoughts on AI and provide a balanced perspective on the subject.First and foremost, I believe that AI has the power to greatly benefit society in numerous ways. One of the most significant advantages of AI is its ability to automate repetitive and mundane tasks, freeing up human workers to focus on more creative and higher-level work. For example, AI can be used to streamline manufacturing processes, improve healthcare through predictive analytics, and enhance personalized learning in education.Additionally, AI has the potential to revolutionize various industries such as transportation, finance, and entertainment. Self-driving cars are a prime example of how AI can improve efficiency and safety on the roads, while AI-powered trading algorithms are increasingly used in the financial sector to make informed investment decisions. In the entertainment industry, AI algorithms can analyze consumer data to recommendpersonalized content to users, leading to a more satisfying viewing experience.Furthermore, AI can contribute to solving some of the world's most pressing challenges, such as climate change and healthcare.

人体的神奇地方英语作文
人体的神奇地方英语作文Title: The Wonders of the Human Body。
The human body is a marvel of nature, a finely tuned machine capable of incredible feats. From the intricate workings of our organs to the astounding capabilities of our brain, there are countless aspects of the human body that inspire awe and fascination. In this essay, we will explore some of the most remarkable features of the human body and delve into the science behind its wonders.One of the most extraordinary aspects of the human body is its ability to heal itself. When we sustain injuries, our body immediately goes to work to repair the damage. This process, known as wound healing, involves a complex series of events that occur at the cellular level.Platelets in our blood form clots to stop bleeding, while white blood cells attack any foreign invaders, such as bacteria, that may have entered the wound. Meanwhile, specialized cells called fibroblasts produce collagen, aprotein that helps to rebuild damaged tissue. Over time, the wound closes and new skin forms, restoring the body to its original state.Another fascinating feature of the human body is its immune system. This complex network of cells and proteinsis responsible for defending the body against harmful pathogens, such as viruses and bacteria. The immune system is able to recognize and destroy these invaders, preventing us from becoming ill. One of the most remarkable aspects of the immune system is its ability to adapt and remember past encounters with pathogens. This is why we develop immunity to certain diseases after being exposed to them once our immune system "remembers" the pathogen and mounts a faster, more effective response if we encounter it again in the future.The human brain is perhaps the most awe-inspiring organ in the body. This three-pound organ is responsible for everything we think, feel, and do. It controls our movements, processes sensory information from the environment, and enables us to experience emotions and formmemories. Despite its relatively small size, the human brain contains billions of neurons, or nerve cells, which communicate with each other through electrical impulses. This intricate network of neurons allows us to perform complex tasks, such as solving problems, learning new skills, and even contemplating the mysteries of the universe.One of the most mysterious aspects of the human body is its ability to produce consciousness. Scientists have long debated the nature of consciousness and how it arises from the physical processes of the brain. While we have made significant strides in understanding the neural correlates of consciousness, the true nature of this phenomenon remains elusive. What is clear, however, is that consciousness is a fundamental aspect of human experience, enabling us to perceive the world around us and contemplate our place in the universe.In conclusion, the human body is a wondrous and complex organism, capable of remarkable feats of healing, defense, and cognition. From the microscopic processes that occurwithin our cells to the intricate workings of our brain, there is much about the human body that continues to defy explanation. As we continue to unravel the mysteries of human biology, we gain a deeper appreciation for the incredible machinery that enables us to experience life to its fullest.。
出国工作雅思范文
出国工作雅思范文In recent years, more and more people are considering going abroad to work. And for many of them, taking the IELTS test is an important step on this journey. So, let's have a chit chat about working overseas.Part 1: Why go abroad to work?Well, there are a whole bunch of reasons. First off, the money can be really good. You know, in some developed countries, the salaries are much higher compared to what you can get at home. It's like they're handing out bags of gold (well, not really, but you get the idea). For example, in the tech field in the United States, a software engineer can earn a salary that would make your eyes pop out if you compare it to the same job in a small town back home.Another reason is the experience. Working in a different country means you get to learn new ways of doing things. You might discover some super efficient work processes that you can bring back to your own country later. It's like going on a work adventure. You get to meet people from all over the world, and it's just so cool to have colleagues from different cultures. You can learn about their festivals, their food, and their unique ways of thinking.Part 2: The importance of IELTS for working abroad.Now, let's talk about IELTS. If you want to work in an English speaking country, IELTS is like your golden ticket. Most employers over there expect you to have a certain level of English proficiency. It's not just about being able to say "hello" and "goodbye." You need to be able to communicate clearly in meetings, write professional emails, and understand all the work related jargon.For instance, if you're applying for a job in a customer service role in Australia, you'll be dealing with customers from all walks of life. You have to be able to understand their problems and offer solutions in fluent English. IELTS tests all aspects of your English speaking, listening, reading, and writing. It's like a comprehensive check up for your English skills.Part 3: Preparing for IELTS and working abroad.Preparing for IELTS can be a bit of a roller coaster ride. You have to study grammar, expand your vocabulary, and practice speaking as much as possible. One tip is to find a language exchange partner. You can practice your English with them, and in return, you can teach them something about your own language or culture. It's a win win situation.When it comes to actually working abroad, there are also some things to keep in mind. You need to be prepared for culture shock. The food might be different, the work life balance could be different, and even the social norms might be a bit strange at first. But don't worry, most people get used to it after a while. Just keep an open mind and be ready to adapt.In conclusion, going abroad to work can be an amazing opportunity. And IELTS is an important part of making that dream come true. Whether you're looking for better pay, new experiences, or just a chance to spread your wings in a different part of the world, it's all within reach if you put in the effort to prepare well for both the test and the overseas work life.。

Common Process Problems
Too Big: Processes become “Big Honkin’ Binders”. Poor Usability: Not “fit for use” by process users. Many processes contain mixed information types. Poor Design: Process documentation usually violates good definition and writing principles. Lack of Pictures: Processes need to be defined by well thought out diagrams or models. Defined Sequentially: Processes are not novels. Shelfware or Unused Webware: Unused processes.
