I’m not making anywhere near as much money as I did when I was employed full time, but now we don’t need as much either. I generate enough income to handle our $600-a-month mortgage payments plus the usual expenses for a family like ours. That includes everything from music lessons and dental bills to car repairs and college costs. When it comes to insurance, we have a poor man’s major-medical policy. We have to pay the first $500 of any medical fees for each member of the family. It picks up 80% of the costs beyond that. Although we are stuck with paying minor expenses, our premium is low — only $560 a year — and we are covered against catastrophe. Aside from that and the policy on our two cars at $400 a year, we have no other insurance. But we are setting aside $2,000 a year in an IRA.

Discussion Changes
• Are you content with your current life? Is there anything you want to change? • What’s your attitude towards changes in your life? Do you welcome them, hate them, or dread them?
by Barack Hussein Obama Jr.
• It’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen, by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voices could be that difference. • It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled. Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and always will be, the United States of America. • It’s the answer that led those who’ve been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day. • It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this date in this election at this defining moment change has come to America.

In my parents' words, the difference between their childhood and mine is as vast as that between heaven and earth.When my parents were young, there was no TV, no computers nor any other electronic appliances in their home. Their food was simple and their clothing plain. What is unbelievable to young people today is that they seldom dined out in a restaurant, or traveled to a scenic spot for a holiday.In contrast to family life one generation ago, each family in China today has at least one TV set and many have been equipped with telephones, computers, even cars. While the senior members of a family watch films on TV at home, the younger members like to play computer games or talk to their friends who may live thousands of miles from them.The changes in Chinese family life mirror the economic development of our country. Without the prosperity of the whole country, our family life would probably be just the same as before. Times have changed, and changed, most would surely agree with me, for the better.Unit Two Civil Rights HeroesPart II Text A THE FREEDOM GIVERSText Organization1.Part One Paras 1-5It is high time to honor the heroes who helped liberate slaves by forging the Underground Railroad in the early civil-rights struggles in America.Part Two Paras 6-23By citing examples the author praises the exploits of civil-rights heroes who helped slaves travel the Un-derground Railroad to freedom.2.

Shortly after he achieved freedom he became a member of an organization that assisted fugitive slaves. He secretly returned to the United States from Canada several times to help others to travel the Underground Railroad to freedom. Once some slave catchers closed in on the escaping slaves and Henson when they were on the run. He disguised them and successfully avoided capture. In addition, later he built a small settlement in Dresden in Canada for escaped slaves, setting up a chapel and a school where they could learn useful ways of making a living. He held to the conviction that slavery would be abolished, all the slaves would be liberated, and the day was bound to come when racial discrimination no longer existed.Part III Text BComprehension Check 1. a 2. d 3. c 4. d 5. b 6. bLanguage Practice1. remarkable2. commitment3. flourish4. resulted from5. grave6.

In this contextPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksModel paperThe Civil-Rights Movement in the U.S.Black Africans were first brought as slaves to what was to become the United States in the seventeenth century. Slavery was strongest in the South, where large plantations grew cotton, tobacco, and other crops. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, a growing demand for cotton led to an increase in the demand for slaves in the region. Slavery was less profitable in the North, however, and much of the opposition to slavery came from the northern states. The tension between the North and the South over the issue of slavery led to the Civil War in 1861.With the victory of the North, slavery was abolished. Discrimination, however, did not end. Black Americans were treated as second class citizens, especially in the South. Dissatisfaction with unfair treatment eventually led to the civil rights protests of the 1950s and 1960s that brought about government action aimed at reducing discrimination.As a result, African Americans have come a long way in the last fifty years, but they still find themselves at a disadvantage in comparison with Americans of European descent. Only 17 per cent of the black population are able to finish higher education, in contrast to 28 per cent of whites. Incomes for the average white family were just over $44,000 in 1999. For an average black family, however, the figure was in the region of $25,000. Not one of the chief executive officers of the top 500 companies is black.Anyway, the civil-rights movement in the U.S. still has a long way to go.Unit Three SecurityText A THE LAND OF THE LOCKText Organization1. 1) Doors are not left unlocked either in cities or in rural areas. Dead-bolt locks, security chains, electronic alarm systems and trip wires are widely in use.2) Suburban families have steel bars built in sliding glass doors.3) Small notices warning against burglary are commonly seen pasted on the windows of the most pleasant of homes.4) Access cards are required of those who work with medium to large-size companies.5) Airport security uses electronic X-ray equipment to guard against terrorism.6) Businessmen employ new machines linked up to their telephone to help determine whether the caller is telling lies or not.7) Suburban housewives wear rape whistles on their key chains.Vocabulary1.1) tranquil 2) analyze 3) by a small margin 4)civilize 5) rural 6)closed up7) era 8)paste 9) without so much as 10)sideways 11) barricaded 12)hook up to13) error 14)chart 15) Bathed in2. 1) bring about 2) looked back on 3) cut off 4) fit into 5) wear (the other) down 6) lies in 7) put up 8) stand for3. 1) A certain gene which is likely to make people vulnerable to asthma has been found by researchers at the Department of Clinical Medicine in Oxford.2) A wardrobe with mirrored doors had to be built in so as to make their small bedroom look larger.3) The NBC show's opening shots feature the space shuttle Challenger blowing up in January 1986—killing all seven crew.4) Colds can be held at bay by increasing your intake of fruit and vegetables which are both low in calories and rich in Vitamin C.5) Energy difficulties are a major barrier to the country's economic growth due to the fact that imported oil has absorbed 40% of its foreign exchange / because imported oil has absorbed 40% of its foreign exchange.4. 1) Jacob looked back on his summer holidays spent on the Big Island of Hawaii with itsbeautiful landscape and tranquil atmosphere as a rare escape from the madness of urban life.2) I was puzzled by the word "e-mail" when I came across it for the first time years ago.

Later, I got to know that e-mail is a system for communicating messages by electronic rather than physical means3) Mr. Smith has, over the years, established his name as a successful used-car dealer in the minds of local people.

TranslationA burglary is reported every 15 seconds in the United States. Statistics show burglars en-tered more than 2 million homes last year. Actually it is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out. All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus exposing him to police patrols or those wandering around. Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity. A light should be fixed in the doorway and switched on at night. Believe it or not, some people, particularly children who happen to be the last to come in, leave their doors on the latch at night. Doors of hollow core, even when locked, are vulnerable to break-ins. Thus doors of solid core or steel are much preferred as they make it difficult for the burglar to pry open. If you decide to buy an alarm device, be sure to ask for its signs and put them up on both windows and doors. Finally, a word of warning—when you travel, make sure that you have a trusted neighbor collect and keep all the deliveries of newspapers and mail until you return. This is because a collection of newspapers and mail on the front doorstep or in your mailbox is an advertisement that no one is home.Part III TextBComprehension Check 1. b 2. b 3. b 4. d 5. a 6. dLanguage Practice1. impact2. inflicted3. draw the line at4. recommend5. circumstance6. break into7. take the plunge8. conclude / have concluded9. aggressive 10. confirm 11. advocated 12. insure 13. departed 14. in our favor 15. target 16. count on 17. head for 18.

The gun is the great equalizer. It does not matter whetheryou are a big tough man or a small frail woman. With a gun in your hand you stand at the same height.What's more, it is the foundation of our nation. Without it there would be no Republic as it is, for we would never have been able to drive the Indians off the land without shooting so many of them down. Nor would the West have been won. Who would have dared venture into lands unpro-tected by the law if they had not been able to protect themselves with a gun? The spirit of our nation thrives on aggressive individuals who are ready to stand up for themselves and to fight for their rights. Look at our films. What do we enjoy watching? People shooting one another. True, children occasionally get hold of guns and slaughter their classmates. But if only their classmates had been properly armed, they could have fought back. It was gun control that left them defenceless.。

In my parents' words, the difference between their childhood and mine is as vast as that between heaven and earth.When my parents were young, there was no TV, no computers nor any other electronic appliances in their home. Their food was simple and their clothing plain. What is unbelievable to young people today is that they seldom dined out in a restaurant, or traveled to a scenic spot for a holiday.In contrast to family life one generation ago, each family inChina today has at least one TV set and many have been equipped with telephones, computers, even cars. While the senior members of a family watch films on TV at home, the younger members like to play computer games or talk to their friends who may live thousands of miles from them.The changes in Chinese family life mirror the economic development of our country. Without the prosperity of the whole country, our family life would probably be just the same as before. Times have changed, and changed, most would surely agree with me, for the better.Unit Two Civil Rights HeroesPart II Text A THE FREEDOM GIVERSText OrganizationOne Paras 1-5It is high time to honor the heroes who helped liberate slaves by forging the Underground Railroad in the early civil-rights struggles in America.Part Two Paras 6-23By citing examples the author praises the exploits of civil-rights heroes who helped slaves travel the Un-derground Railroad to freedom.2.

In this contextPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksModel paperThe Civil-Rights Movement in the U.S.Black Africans were first brought as slaves to what was to become the United States in the seventeenth century. Slavery was strongest in the South, where large plantations grew cotton, tobacco, and other crops. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, a growing demand for cotton led to an increase in the demand for slaves in the region. Slavery was less profitable in the North, however, and much of the opposition to slavery came from the northern states. The tension between the North and the South over the issue of slavery led to the Civil War in 1861.With the victory of the North, slavery was abolished. Discrimination, however, did not end. Black Americans were treated as second class citizens, especially in the South. Dissatisfaction with unfair treatment eventually led to the civil rights protests of the 1950s and 1960s that brought about government action aimed at reducing discrimination.As a result, African Americans have come a long way in the last fifty years, but they still find themselves at a disadvantage in comparison with Americans of European descent. Only 17 per cent of the black population are able to finish higher education, in contrast to 28 per cent of whites. Incomes for the average white family were just over $44,000 in 1999. For an average black family, however, the figure was in the region of $25,000. Not one of the chief executive officers of the top 500 companies is black.Anyway, the civil-rights movement in the U.S. still has a longway to go.Unit Three SecurityText A THE LAND OF THE LOCKText Organization1. 1) Doors are not left unlocked either in cities or in rural areas.

TranslationA burglary is reported every 15 seconds in the United States. Statistics show burglars en-tered morethan 2 million homes last year. Actually it is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out. Allyou can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus exposing him to police patrols or those wandering around. Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity.A light should be fixedin the doorway and switched on at night. Believe it or not, some people, particularly children who happento be the last to come in, leave their doors on the latch at night. Doors of hollow core, even when locked,are vulnerable to break-ins. Thus doors of solid core or steel are much preferred as they make it difficultfor the burglar to pry open. If you decide to buy an alarm device, be sure to ask for its signs and putthem up on both windows and doors. Finally, a word of warning—when you travel, make sure that you havea trusted neighbor collect and keep all the deliveries of newspapers and mail until you return.

It does not matter whether you are a big tough man or a small frail woman. With a gun in your hand you stand at the same 's more, it is the foundation of our nation. Without it there would be no Republic as it is, for we would never have been able to drive the Indians off the land without shooting so many of them down. Nor would the West have been won. Who would have dared venture into lands unpro-tected by the law if they had not been able to protect themselves with a gun The spirit of our nation thrives on aggressive individuals who are ready to stand up for themselves and to fight for their rights. Look at our films. What do we enjoy watching People shooting one another. True, children occasionally get hold of guns and slaughter their classmates. But if only their classmates had been properly armed, they could have fought back. It was gun control that left them defenceless.。

(taking a break from city life, escaping from the crowd) —How is the song related to the theme of this unit? (The singer needs a break because the pace of life has quickened, the environment has been changed, and the old life style is gone.)2.1) Ss divide into three large groups, under each group smaller sub-groups may form.Each large group is assigned one of the following discussion topics:—Why do so many migrant workers (民工) move from the country to the city?—Why do city people buy apartments or houses in the suburbs, even in the countryside?— Why are tours of Zhou Zhuang (周庄), Li Jiang (漓江) or any other old towns so popular? Why are tourists willing to pay to spend a day in a farmer's house?2) After the discussion, speakers of some sub-groups report to class.3) T may sum up like this: People change their places of living because they look forthings that their previous life is unable to provide. However, once life has beenchanged, they miss the good old days.

Then they would report theirfindings to class (see Text Analysis).3) T encourages Ss to model their own writing after this pattern. (15 minutes)3.T guides Ss through some after-text exercises. (25 minutes)4.T checks on Ss' home reading. (3 minutes)5.Ss do Part IV: Theme-Related Language Learning Tasks. (1 period)6.T asks Ss to prepare for the next unit: (2 minutes)1) do the pre-reading task;2) preview Text A.Text AnalysisThe author writes his piece in a clear and logical way. In many instances he employs the pattern of "one topic sentence + several detail sentences" structure. It's easy for readers to grasp the main idea, and it is also proven effective for learner writers like our students.Sometimes the detail sentences run parallel to each other, like those in Para 2. In some other paragraphs the detail sentences have their own hierarchy. Take Para 5 for example. The first sentence tells how busy "I" am. The second sentence states that Sandy, the wife, is also busy. The final sentence is a kind of summary—nobody can relax.Yet following the second sentence there are a few more detail sentences showing exactly how tight a schedule Sandy has. Take Paras 12-13 for another example. The topic sentence therein is "I suspect not everyone who loves the country would be happy living the way we do. It takes a couple of special qualities." Then there are two sub-topic sentences: "One is a tolerance for solitude"; "The other requirement is energy—a lot of it." Each sub-topic sentence has its own supporting details.Sometimes there is no transitional devices between detail sentences, sometimes there are, the most frequently used one of which is time words or phrases. For example, the detail sentences in Para 4 begin with "three months ago", "three months from now", "recently", and "later this month",respectively. To be sure, other conjunctions scatter the text, like "first"- "then" -"then" - "eventually" in Para 7.Cultural Notes1.the countryside: The countryside of Britain is well known for its beauty and manycontrasts: its bare mountains and moorland, its lakes, rivers and woods, and its long, often wild coastline. Many of the most beautiful areas are national parks and are protected from development. When British people think of farmland, as well as open spaces, they imagine cows or sheep in green fields enclosed by hedges or stone walls, and fields of wheat and barley.Many people associate the countryside with peace and relaxation. They spend their free time walking or cycling there, or go to the country for a picnic or a pub lunch. Only a few people who live in the country work on farms. Many commute to work in towns. Many others dream of living in the country, where they believe theywould have a better and healthier lifestyle.America has many areas of wild and beautiful scenery, and there are many areas, especially in the West in states like Montana and Wyoming, where few people live. In the New England states, such as Vermont and New Hampshire, it is common to see small farms surrounded by hills and green areas. In Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other Midwestern states, fields of corn or wheat reach to the horizon and there are many miles between towns.Only about 20% of Americans live outside cities and towns. Life may be difficult for people who live in the country. Services like hospitals and schools may be further away, and going shopping can mean driving long distances. Some people even have to drive from their homes to the main road where their mail is left in a box. In spite of the disadvantages, many people who live in the country say that they like the safe, clean, attractive environment. But their children often move to a town or city as soon as they can.As in Britain, Americans like to go out to the country at weekends. Some people go on camping or fishing trips, others go hiking in national parks.2.Fahrenheit scale: a scale of temperature, first established by the German physicistGabriel Fahrenheit in 1715. The unit of temperature is the degree Fahrenheit (°F), and 0°F was originally the coldest temperature Fahrenheit could achieve using a freezing mixture of salt and ice. On his scale, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F (under set atmospheric conditions). No longer used in scientific work, Fahrenheit temperatures still feature in everyday language; hot days "in the eighties", for example. To convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius (centigrade), subtract 32, then multiply by 5/9.3.Celsius scale: a scale of hotness, or temperature, first established by the Swedishscientist Anders Celsius (1701-1744) in 1742. On this scale, the unit of temperature is the degree Celsius (°C); water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C (under agreed standard atmospheric conditions), although when Celsius originally devised the scale he made 100°the boiling-point and 0°the freezing-point. The Celsius scale was formerly commonly known as the centigrade scale because of the 100 divisions between the freezing- and boiling-points of water. To convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit multiply by 9/5 and add 32.4.Ivy League: eight long-established colleges and universities in the United Stateswith prestigious academic and social reputations. Members of the Ivy League are Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island; Columbia University in New York City; Cornell University in Ithaca, New York; Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire; Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts;University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia; Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey; and Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. The members of theIvy League compete in intercollegiate athletics.5.Sports Illustrated: a popular US sports magazine published each week by Time Inc.part of Time Warner. It first appeared in 1954, and is read mainly by men. The magazine also publishes the Sports Illustrated Sports Almanac every year.6.Individual Retirement Account (IRA): a US government plan that allows peopleto put part of their income into special bank accounts. No tax has to be paid on this money until they retire.7.Buying Insurance: People face many choices when buying insurance policies. Theycommonly choose an insurance provider based on several criteria. Some of the most important of these include: 1) the financial stability of the insurance company, 2) the price of policies, and 3) details of coverage and service.Only a financially sound company can fulfill its promise to pay in all circumstances. Companies with proven records of stability can provide insurance security. Choice of a provider based solely on price, on the other hand, may result in poor service and coverage, even if the provider advertises comprehensive coverage and high quality service.Policy prices vary significantly among companies, but competition usually forces most companies' prices into a narrow range. The greater cost of some policies may pay off in the long run through better protection. Thus, a detailed examination of coverage in policies provided by different, well-regarded companies can help consumers make the best choice based on the risks they face, their needs, and their finances.People seeking to buy insurance often use the services of an insurance agent or broker to assist in their purchase. Most insurance falls into four main categories, according to what it covers: 1) property and casualty, 2) life, 3) health and disability, and 4) old-age and unemployment. Insurers commonly refer to insurance purchased by individuals as personal lines coverage and to insurance purchased by businesses as commercial coverage.Language Study1.get by: be good enough but not very good; manage to live or do things in asatisfactory way Examples: My parents managed to get by on a small amount of money.It is a little bit difficult for the old couple to get by on such a small pension.We can get by with four computers at the moment, but we'll need a couplemore when the new staff members arrive.2.... when it was 30 below: Here the Celsius scale is used instead of the Fahrenheitscale, (see Cultural Notes)3.haul: 1) transport, as with a truck, cart, etc.Examples: The farmers haul vegetables to the market on a truck every morning.The rescue team hauled medical supplies and food to the flooded villages.2) pull or drag sth. with effort or forceExamples: A crane had to be used to haul the car out of the stream.Rescue workers hauled passengers out of the crashed train.4.improvement: the act or an instance of improving or being improvedExamples: Internet service providers should develop security improvement services for their customers.The government's priorities will go to local transport improvement projects.The improvement in the job market in the past few years has beenremarkable.5.supplement: add to sth. in order to improve it (followed by with)Examples: Peter does occasional freelance work to supplement his income.The doctor suggested supplementing my diet with vitamins E and A.6.indoor: situated or used inside a buildingExamples: Indoor pollution has been found to be as much as five to ten times higher inside some skyscrapers than outside.Tobacco smoke is considered as an indoor pollutant.The Mall of America, the biggest mall in USA includes the world's largestindoor amusement park.7.spray: force out liquid in small drops upon (followed by with)Examples: I'll have to spray the roses with insecticide to get rid of the greenfly.A car went past and sprayed me with water.8.pursue: followExamples: After graduation Martin chose to pursue the same career as his father as a minister.College students are advised to pursue a wide range of subjects.Public evening classes allow people to earn a living during the day andpursue vocational and intellectual interests in their spare time.9.stack: make into a pileExamples: Once the last few people had left the hall, the caretakers began stacking the chairs.Before being processed into lumber, the wood must be carefully stacked toprevent warping.10.wicked: evil or badExamples: I would rather starve in a ditch than accept the fortune upon such wicked terms.We are all born good, but can be taught to be wicked.11.get through: come successfully to the endExamples: The local government has taken some measures to ensure that all the people will get through the winter.She got through the entrance examination and was accepted by the college.12.at that point: at that very moment, right thenExamples: The train was now only a couple of yards from the kids on the track.

In my parents' words, the difference between their childhood and mine is as vast as that between heaven and earth.When my parents were young, there was no TV, no computers nor any other electronic appliances in their home. Their food was simple and their clothing plain. What is unbelievable to young people today is that they seldom dined out in a restaurant, or traveled to a scenic spot for a holiday.In contrast to family life one generation ago, each family in China today has at least one TV set and many have been equipped with telephones, computers, even cars. While the senior members of a family watch films on TV at home, the younger members like to play computer games or talk to their friends who may live thousands of miles from them.The changes in Chinese family life mirror the economic development of our country. Without the prosperity of the whole country, our family life would probably be just the same as before. Times have changed, and changed, most would surely agree with me, for the better.Unit Two Civil Rights HeroesPart II Text A THE FREEDOM GIVERSText Organization1.Part One Paras 1-5It is high time to honor the heroes who helped liberate slaves by forging the Underground Railroad in the early civil-rights struggles in America.Part Two Paras 6-23By citing examples the author praises the exploits of civil-rights heroes who helped slaves travel the Underground Railroad to freedom.2.

Shortly afterhe achieved freedom he became a member of an organization that assisted fugitive slaves. He secretly returned to the United States from Canada several times to help others to travel the Underground Railroadto freedom. Once some slave catchers closed in on the escaping slaves and Henson when they were on the run. He disguised them and successfully avoided capture. In addition, later he built a small settlementin Dresden in Canada for escaped slaves, setting up a chapel and a school where they could learn useful ways of making a living. He held to the conviction that slavery would be abolished, all the slaves wouldbe liberated, and the day was bound to come when racial discrimination no longer existed.Part III Text BComprehension Check 1. a 2. d 3. c 4. d 5. b 6. bLanguage Practice1. remarkable2. commitment3. flourish4. resulted from5. grave6.

In this contextPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksModel paperThe Civil-Rights Movement in the U.S.Black Africans were first brought as slaves to what was to become the United States in the seventeenth century. Slavery was strongest in the South, where large plantations grew cotton, tobacco, and other crops. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, a growing demand for cotton led to an increase in the demandfor slaves in the region. Slavery was less profitable in the North, however, and much of the oppositionto slavery came from the northern states. The tension between the North and the South over the issue of slavery led to the Civil War in 1861.With the victory of the North, slavery was abolished. Discrimination, however, did not end. Black Americans were treated as second class citizens, especially in the South. Dissatisfaction with unfair treatment eventually led to the civil rights protests of the 1950s and 1960s that brought about government action aimed at reducing discrimination.As a result, African Americans have come a long way in the last fifty years, but they still find themselves at a disadvantage in comparison with Americans of European descent. Only 17 per cent of theblack population are able to finish higher education, in contrast to 28 per cent of whites. Incomes forthe average white family were just over $44,000 in 1999. For an average black family, however, the figurewas in the region of $25,000. Not one of the chief executive officers of the top 500 companies is black.Anyway, the civil-rights movement in the U.S. still has a long way to go.Unit Three SecurityText A THE LAND OF THE LOCKText Organization1. 1) Doors are not left unlocked either in cities or in rural areas.

TranslationA burglary is reported every 15 seconds in the United States. Statistics show burglars entered more than 2 million homes last year. Actually it is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out. All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus exposing him to police patrols or those wandering around. Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity. A light should be fixed in the doorway and switched on at night. Believe it or not, some people, particularly children who happen to be the last to come in, leave their doors on the latch at night. Doors of hollow core, even when locked, are vulnerable to break-ins. Thus doors of solid core or steel are much preferred as they make it difficult for the burglar to pry open. If you decide to buy an alarm device, be sure to ask for its signs and put them up on both windows and doors. Finally, a word of warning—when you travel, make sure that you have a trusted neighbor collect and keep all the deliveries of newspapers and mail until you return. This is because a collection of newspapers and mail on the front doorstep or in your mailbox is an advertisement that no one is home.Part III TextBComprehension Check 1. b 2. b 3. b 4. d 5. a 6. dLanguage Practice1. impact2. inflicted3. draw the line at4. recommend5. circumstance6. break into7. take the plunge8. conclude / have concluded9. aggressive 10. confirm11. advocated 12. insure 13. departed 14. in our favor 15. target 16. count on17. head for 18.

The gun is the great equalizer. It does not matter whether you are a big tough man or a small frail woman. With a gun in your hand you stand at the same height.What's more, it is the foundation of our nation. Without it there would be no Republic as it is, for we would never have been able to drive the Indians off the land without shooting so many of them down. Nor would the West have been won. Who would have dared venture into lands unprotected by the law if they had not been able to protect themselves with a gun? The spirit of our nation thrives on aggressive individuals who are ready to stand up for themselves and to fight for their rights. Look at our films. What do we enjoy watching? People shooting one another. True, children occasionally get hold of guns and slaughter their classmates. But if only their classmates had been properly armed, they could have fought back. It was gun control that left them defenceless.。
