9/6/2016
Collocation is a very important language feature and we must make note of that when we learn a language.
9/6/2016
There
are several types of collocation: v.+n., a. + n., v.+ ad., prep. +n., v. + prep.. Learning a word is not only learning its meaning; it also includes learning which word or words it usually goes with, that is, its collocations.
9/6/2016
Country /nation/ state / land
Can you distinguish between these words?
9/6/2016
Country
→ → → →
an area of land and its population and its government. the people of a country. the government or political organization of a country less precise but more literary and emotive

写作教程(一)unit-1标准答案
写作教程(一)unit-1标准答案Unit 1PART Ⅱ FOCUSDenotation and ConnotationSuggested answer to the questionIf it is your teacher, most probably you will choose b, as the word portly has an implication of a more or less dignified and imposing appearance (e.g. an elderly gentleman, large and portly). However, if it is a doorkeeper, an amiable middle-aged woman, you may choose the word plump as it implies a pleasing fullness of figure (e.g. the plump goddesses of Renaissance paintings). From this exercise we can conclude that words that share the same denotative meanings can be diverse in their connotative meanings.Reference for the Classroom Activities1.father: the male parent. It connotes support and sternness; it also connotesprotection but in a serious fashion.wildflower: uncultivated plant; it connotes vitality and pleasantness.2.Word Denotation Connotation Sentencegold a precious yellow metal wealth, value,preciousness, etcSilence is gold.moon the natural body that moves around the earthonce every 28 days tranquility, purity,something out ofreach, etc.There’s no pointhoping for peace inthe country. It’s likeasking for the moon.ice water frozen so that it has become solid coldness,indifference, cruelty,death, etc.The ice in his voicewas only to hide thepain.blood red liquid flowing through the bodies ofhumans and animals family background,descent, race,temperament, etc.Blood is thicker thanwater.bravery, spirit, and toughness.b. Anyway, she has the characteristics of a woman, such as frailty anddelicacy.AttitudeReference for the Classroom Activities1.Favorable Neutral Unfavorableunique, quaint strange bizarre, abnormal resolute, steadfast stubborn, dogged pigheadedcompliment (v.) praise, commend, flatter lick one’s bootssenior citizen old person fossilbachelor girl single woman spinsterCollocationSuggested answers to the exercisea.do somebody a favorb.do somebody goodc.make a gestured.do evile.do harmf.make an effortReference for the Classroom Activities1.1) D 2) D 3) A 4) B 5) C 6) C 7) BFalse FriendsSuggested answers to the questionThe misunderstanding occurs due to the use of homonyms or false friends—flour or flower, ground (as the past participle of the verb grind) and ground (meaning the solid surface of the earth). In this excerpt, the use of false friends adds a humorous effect to the text.Reference for the Classroom Activities1.The false friends are lie meaning to keep one’s body in a flat position, andlie meaning to say something dishonest.2. a. Your fever rose yesterday.b. That racket is bad enough to make Aunt Ella’s eyebrows raised.c. Jack has been lying around all day.d. The soldiers laid aside their weapons.e. A heavy fog lay over the land.f. White stationery is always appropriate.g. Is that table stationary, or can it be moved to another corner of theroom?h. It is easier to talk about a principle than to live by it.i. Our principal played on the faculty football team against the schoolall-stars.3. Some other false friends:fair vs. fareIt’s not fair to put all the blame on him.Bus fares are going up again.passed vs. pastI passed the landlady on the stairs this morning.Several boys went past us on mountain bikes.intense vs. intensiveShe suddenly felt an intense pain in her stomach.He took an intensive course on English.farther vs. furtherThe fog’s so thick; I can’t see farther than about five meters.Every day she thinks further and further into depression.PART III GARMMARSubject-Verb AgreementWhen the subject is compoundReference for the Classroom ActivitiesSummary1. A compound subject with and takes a plural verb in most cases, but when itexpresses a singular meaning or when each of the singular subjects is considered individually, it takes a singular verb.2.After a compound subject with or, nor, either…or, neither…nor, not…but, theverb agrees in number and person with the nearer part of the subject.3.Intervening phrases or clauses not introduced by coordinating conjunctionsdo not affect the number of a verb. Such phrases are normally introduced by prepositions or prepositions or prepositional phrases such as as well as, asmuch as, rather than, along with, in addition to, together with, with, plus, and including.Reference for the Classroom ActivitiesSummary1.Nominal phrases of time, money, weight and measurement normally take asingular verb.2.Some words or phrases, such as all, most, half, the last, the rest, take asingular or plural verb, depending on the meaning of the noun or pronoun that follows.3.Phrases like l ots of, heaps of, loads of take singular or plural verbs dependingon the form of the nouns that follow.4.In sentences with more than one or many a modifying the subject noun, theverb should take a singular form though it is plural in meaning.Reference for the Classroom Activitiesa.He was one of the candidates who were able to carry out their campaignpledges.He was the only one of the candidates who was able to carry out his campaign pledges.b.What he wants is just a little love from his foster parents.What one thinks and says are not always the same.c.There is a cherry tree and several orchid flowers in the garden.There are hundreds of applicants on the waiting list for the job.Summary1.After a relative pronoun (who, which, that), the verb has the same person andnumber as the antecedent. (In the second sentence in Pair a, the antecedent is the only one, not the candidates.)2.After a what-clause, the verb is usually singular. But if the what-clause is in acompound structure plural in meaning, the verb is in plural form.3.In the there-be structure, the verb is singular or plural depending on thenumber of the subject. The singular there is may be used to introduce a compound subject when the first noun or nominal phrase is singular. Reference for the Classroom Activitiesa.Nobody in town admits seeing him.b.Does anyone want to go with me?c.Are any of you going to the exhibition?d.None works/work so hard as he does.e.Books are her chief source of enjoyment.f.The one thing you must be ready for is their attempts to break up themeeting.g.The jury is finally complete.h.The jury were divided in their opinions.i.New York Times is his bible.j.Semantics is the study of meanings.Summary1.Indefinite pronouns such as anybody, anyone, each, everybody, nobody, no one,and somebody generally require a singular verb.2.The pronouns any and none take either singular or plural verbs.3.The complement of the verb be does not affect its number.4. A collective noun takes a singular verb when the class it names is thought ofas a unit, but a plural verb when the members of the class are thought of as individuals.5.Titles of books, magazines, movies, newspapers, plays, and the like take asingular verb.6.Certain nouns which are plural in form but singular in meaning generallytake a singular verb. Some of these are physics, mechanics, news statistics, and whereabouts.Notes (I)Sample 1Suggested answers to the questions1.Notes are the simplest and shortest form of written communication and theyare quick, easy and convenient.2. A note has three essential components:--the addressee—the person(s) to whom the note is written;--the message;--the sender.3. Notes are characterized by their brevity, informality in style, and dedication toa single topic.Sample 2Suggested answers to the questions1.The date is put at the upper right-hand corner. Besides the date or weekday,you may, at times, need to state the hour or even the minute.2.You can add the word Dear before the addressee’s name and acomplimentary close.3.

Her new life did not affect her a great deal. She knew that as a student she had to be economical and she was not self-conscious of her poor clothing and strange accent. These were the things she was uninterested in; what fascinated her instead was the cultural differences between the two countries. She found people there liked to pay compliments and were more credulous to what she said. Of course, she never lied to them about her motherland.

最新现代大学英语精读3Unit1资料讲解
Who we are is determined by three things: first, our genes, or what our parents have given us; second, environment; third, luck or opportunities.
Have you ever considered…? Has it ever occurred to you…? Has it ever dawned on you…? Can you make some sentences by making
use of the latter two expressions?
independence in handling everyday life situations; the ability to solve practical problems
determining what they are going to do every day
Hoffman defines this process as “freedom from an excessive need for approval, closeness, togetherness, and emotional support in relation to the mother and father.”
no longer having something you do not want Children need their parents to tell them what to do or not to do. They also need to be close to their parents and receive encouragement, love, all kinds of emotional support which give them strength. But when they grow up, they no longer have the same needs like babies.

Though college students seldom think about them, key changes will probably happen to them during their college years.1你可曾考虑过作为一个大学生你生活中正在发生和即将发生的变化?你可曾想到过大学时代教授们以及其他教职工为了你的成长和发展制定了目标?你可曾注意过你在从青少年渐渐成人的过程中会发生某些变化?尽管大学生很少想这些,但是在大学生时代很可能会发生一些主要的变化。
2.During this time, students are going through an identity crisis and are endeavoring to find out who they are and what their strengths and weaknesses are. They have, of course, plenty of both. It is important to know how people perceive themselves as well as how other people perceive them. According to Piers and Landau, in an article discussing the theories of Erik H. Erickson in International Encyclopedia of Social Sciences (1979), identity is determined by genetic endowment (what is inherited from parents), shaped by environment, and influenced by chance events. People are influenced by their environment and, in turn, influence their environment. How people see themselves in both roles is unquestionably a part of their identity.2在这段时期,学生们正经受自我认同危机,他们努力要了解自己的身份,掌握自身的优缺点。

Reading DifferencesAchiever: someone who is successful, especially through skill and hard work. (尤指凭自己本领和努力)成功者。
High achiever:someone whose work is usually excellent or who usually succeeds, especially in school.事业成功的人(尤指学习成绩好的人)(a) Low achievers: Usually they are in extremes. Their emphasis is whether oncontent or on linguistic forms. They seldom combine themtogether.(b) High achievers: Their emphases vary in different tasks.(i) In the first two times, they do not use dictionaries, and justguess the meanings of new words; they only try to get the mainidea of the whole passage.(ii) Later (for the third or fourth times), they pay more attentionto linguistic forms and the passage‟s deep meanings as well asthe author‟s intentions.3. Proper steps for reading a passage like Text A(a) Fist Time: Just scan the whole passage quickly so as to get the main idea.(b) Second Time: Read closely in order to find reading difficulties; at the sametime, mark new words and unfamiliar phrases (sentence structures),then guess the meanings.(c) Third Time: Read the whole passage word by word and sentence by sentenceso as to master the new linguistic forms and the content.Simultaneously use dictionaries to check your guessing in Step (b);Do the exercises if necessary.(d) Fourth Time: Closely read the whole passage again to figure out the author‟sintentions, attitudes, implied meanings, and ect.4. Textbooks Vs. Outside Reading(a) Textbooks(i) Strong Points: The texts are well written and carefully selected; they useformal language, and are of wide genres[ˈʒɒrə, ˈ(d)ʒɒnrə] 类型,体裁, 风格. They introduce language points step by step, andtheir difficulties gradually increase. The texts are especially usefulfor building a sound basic knowledge about English.(ii) Weak Points: The texts have limited vocabulary size; only reading these texts is hard to form good reading habits.(b) Outside Reading(i) Strong Points: They can enlarge your vocabulary size and enrich yourbackground knowledge; they are useful for forming readinghabits.(ii) Weak Points: This kind of training lacks systematic and gradual training, so it is not good for building up your basic knowledge.(c) Our Solutions(i) Emphasize the importance of textbooks(ii) Advocate outside reading like newspapers, stories, abridged books, ect.(To be continued)ⅡRequirementsFull Attendance;Active Participation;Assignments (Homework; Journals ;) Journals :a daily record of news and events of a personal nature; a diary日记;日志English-English & Chinese-English Dictionaries;Facilities: Radio; Recorder; Journal.Lesson One Half a DayI.

How do you feel about your military training experience? How do you imagine your university life like?Have you ever read or heard a fiction story? What was it? What are the common skills in fiction writing?What do you think does the story “Half a Day” tell us? Why?Background Information (40 minutes)Naguib Mahfouz——Education & BackgroundNaguib Mahfouz was born on the 11th Dec. 1911 in an old quarter of Cairo, the youngest son of a merchant. He studied philosophy at King Faud I (now Cairo) University, graduating in 1934. He worked in university administration and then in 1939 he worked for the Mini-stry of Islamic Affairs. He was later Head of the State Cinema Organisation at the Ministry of Culture. He also worked as a journalist. Although widely translated, his works are not available in most Middle Eastern countries because of his support of Sadat's Camp David initiative. In 1994 he survived an assassination attempt by Islamic extremists.背景知识(40分钟)通过问答和讲解的方式,帮助学生了解1.纳吉布•马福兹所受教育和一般背景;He is married, has two daughters and lives in Cairo.2.Naguib Mahfouz —— important worksNaguib Mahfouz was the first Arab to win the Nobel prize for literature, in 1988. He has been described as "a Dickens of the Cairo cafés" and "the Balzac of Egypt".He is now the author of no fewer than 30 novels, more than 100 short stories, and more than 200 articles. Half of his novels have been made into films which have circulated throughout the Arabic-speaking world.Mahfouz began writing when he was 17. His first novel was published in 1939 and ten more were written before the Egyptian Revolution of July 1952, when he stopped writing for several years. One novel was republished in 1953, however, and the appearance of The Cairo Trilogy in 1957 made him famous throughout the Arab world as a depictor of traditional urban life.Works of his second writing period:The Children of Gebelawi (1959)The Thief and the Dogs (1961)Autumn Quail (1962)Small Talk on the Nile (1966)Miramar (1967)several collections of short stories.3. Naguib Mahfouz —— how he pictures the worldThe picture of the world as it emerges from the bulk of Mahfouz's work is very gloomy indeed, though not completely despondent. It shows that the author's social utopia is far from being realized.Mahfouz seems to conceive of time as a metaphysical force of oppression. His novels have consistently shown time as the bringer of change, and change as a very painful process, and very often time is not content until it has dealt his heroes the final blow of death.To sum up, in Mahfouz's dark tapestry of the world there are only two bright spots. These consists of man's continuing struggle for equality on the one hand and the promise of scientific progress on the other; meanwhile, life is a tragedy.纳吉布•马福兹的主要著作:阿拉伯世界的第一位诺贝尔文学奖获得者;纳吉布•马福兹笔下的世界: 无尽的拼搏与悲剧的人生Based on the Nobel Prize Winner's novel, the Egyptian Naguib Mahfouz. The story, translated from El Cairo to Mexico City's downtown, narrates the life of the members of the neighbourhood and the connection between them Don Ru, the owner of the local pub; Eusebia, his wife; Guicho, his son and Abel his friend, who emigrate to USA in search of fortune; Susanita, the single landtender always dreaming to marry a good man; Jimmy, the pub's employee, who extracts the money when Don Ru is notthere and finally marries Susanita; Alma, the very good looking girl, the Abel's dream, who becomes a luxury prostitute while he's away, etc. This movie won the Ariel (the Mexican Oscar) as best movie in 1995Introduction to the Text1. Writing --- the protagonist returns after being absent for a short time to findeverything changed beyond recognition.2. The best example --- Washington Irving‟s (1783—1859) “Rip Van Winkle”. Ripwas a simple good-natured man. One fine day he went with his dog to themountains to hunt squirrels. He drank something a queer old man offeredhim, he fell fast asleep. When he woke up he found himself an old man andthat great changes had occurred in his village during his absence. In thevillage in the portrait of King George III had been replaced by one of GeneralWashington. This technique is often used to emphasize rapid changes insociety.The setting of the story is not clear, but this is not import as long as what the author tries to get across is something universal.3. This technique is often used to emphasized rapid changes in society.Main Sections of the Text APart One (P1 to P7): The boy‟s misgivings about school. He thought school was a punishment.Part Two (P8 to P16): The boy‟s rich and colorful life in school, though disciplines and hard word are required.Part Three (P17 to P20): After school, the boy found the world has changed beyond measure; he turned to be an old man.beyond measureto a very great extent不可估量,极度it irritates him beyond measure.这让他产生了极大的愤怒。

Unit 1PART Ⅱ FOCUSDenotation and ConnotationSuggested answer to the questionIf it is your teacher, most probably you will choose b, as the word portly has an implication of a more or less dignified and imposing appearance(e.g. an elderly gentleman, large and portly). However, if it is a doorkeeper, an amiable middle-aged woman, you may choose the word plump as it implies a pleasing fullness of figure (e.g. the plump goddesses of Renaissance paintings).

现代大学英语精读4unit1课后作文
现代大学英语精读4unit1课后作文Heads up, kid! Can't you just look up? ”Then I would look up at the cupboard and watch the naked lady frozen in fear, the muscular man staring melancholy at the cheetah's hind legs. I didn't have much to say to the principal. His lenses reflected light, so I couldn't see anything human behind the lenses, so there was no possibility of communication."You never think about it?"No, I don't think, I didn't think, I don't think—I'm just waiting in pain for the reception to end."Then you'd better learn—have you learned?"At one point, the headmaster jumped up and reached out to take Loding's masterpiece and place it heavily on the table in front of me."This is what a person really looks like when he's thinking."Obviously I'm missing something. The sixth sense that nature gives to all the rest of the people has left me alone.I observe my teachers like those who are born deaf but determined to seek a voice, wanting to understand thoughts.There was a Mr. Howden at that time, and he always wanted me to think. He told me with humble satisfaction that he himself had thought about it a little bit. So why did he spend so much time drinking heavily? Could it be that alcoholism actually makes more sense than it looks? And if this is not the case, alcoholism is in fact detrimental to health — Mr. Hauge was undoubtedly ruined by alcohol — then why does he talk all the time about pure life and the benefits of fresh air?Sometimes when it comes to xingtou, he will jump off the podium and drive us out into the bitter wind outside.Now, kids! Breathe deeply! Feel the beautiful flow of air created by God coming directly into your body! ”He would stand in front of us, crossed his waist, and take a deep breath. He would make you hear the sound of the wind blocking his chest cavity, encountering obstacles and struggling forward. His body was not used to such feelings Shaking, his face turned miserable. He would stagger backto the podium and then slump there, unable to slow down for a morning.Mr. Howden enjoys monologues about a good, undesirable, conscientious life. But in between the delivery of these monologues, if a girl passes by the window, his neck will involuntarily twist and watch her out of sight. In this case, I think he is not controlled by thoughts, but by some invisible but irresistible clockwork in the back of his neck.I was very interested in his neck. Usually it protrudes slightly above the neckline. But Mr. Howden fought alongside the Americans and the French in World War I, and hated both countries. Whichever of the two countries excelled in current affairs, he had no fondness for it, and no argument could convince him. He would pound the table, his neck swollen red: "How do you like to say," he would exclaim:"But I've thought about it, and I know what I want!"Mr. Howden thought with his neck.I'm going to do a detailed analysis of my teachers in order to introduce what is often called the nature of thought.Through them I have learned that thinking is often full of unconscious prejudice, ignorance, and hypocrisy. While admonishing selfless innocence, its neck is bent on twisting for the sake of a short skirt. Technically, it's as skilful as a businessman playing golf, as honest as a politician's intentions, or as organized as most books are written. This is what I later called the third level of thinking, although in fact it is more appropriate to call it feeling.It is true that there was an element of innocence in prejudice, but at that time my attitude towards thinking of the third class was intolerant contempt and unthinking ridicule. I take pleasure in refuting a pious lady who hates the Germans but stands for loving our enemies. She taught me a great truth about dealing with third-level thinkers. Because of her, I no longer easily reject the mental processes that ninety percent of people may have gone through. They are highly united. We had better respect them because we are surrounded by them and are weak. A whole bunch of third-level thinkers, all tongue-in-cheek, warming their hands with their ownprejudices, won't appreciate you pointing out the contradictions in their faith. Man is a gregarious animal, as much as cattle love to graze along the same road on a hillside.。

Teaching Requirements for Term 3
• Every student had better spend two hours a week in practicing writing different genres which we have learned so far. (Learning any language is a process. Many studies have proven that the easiest and best way to learn is to study and practice what you want to learn every day instead of once a week or just before an exam.)
