Unit 12 Gender Bias in LanguageLanguage is a very powerful element. It is the most common method of communication. Yet it is often misunderstood and misinterpreted, for language is a very complicated mechanism with a great deal of nuance. There are times when in conversation with another individual, that we must take into account the person’s linguistic genealogy. There are people who use language that would be considered prejudicial or biased in use. But the question that is raised is in regard to language usage: Is language the cause of the bias or is it reflective of the preexisting bias that the user holds? There are those who believe that the language that we use in day-to-day conversation is biased in and of itself. They feel that the term "mailman", for example, is one that excludes women mail carriers. Then there are those who feel that language is a reflection of the prejudices that people have within themselves. That is to say, the words that people choose to use in conversation denote the bias that they harbor within their own existence.There are words in the English language that are existing or have existed (some of them have changed with the new wave of “political correctness” coming about) that have inherently been sexually biased against women. For example, the person who investigates reported complaints (as from consumers or students), reports findings, and helps to achieve fair and impartial settlements is ombudsman (Merriam-Webster Dictionary), but ombudsperson here at Indiana State University. This is an example of the gender bias that exists in the English language. The language is arranged so that men are identified with exalted positions, and women are identified with more service-oriented positions in which they are being dominated and instructed by men. So the language used to convey this type of male supremacy is generally reflecting the honored position of the male and the subservience of the female. Even in relationships, the male in the home is often referred to as the “man of the house,” even if it is a 4-year-old child. It is highly insulting to say that a 4-year-old male, based solely on his gender, is more qualified and capable of conducting the business and affairs of the home than his possibly well-educated, highly intellectual mother. There is a definite disparity in that situation.In American culture, a woman is valued for the attractiveness of her body, while a man is valued for his physical strength and his achievements. Even in the example of word pairs the bias is evident. The masculine word is put before the feminine word, as in the examples of Mr. and Mrs., his and hers, boys and girls, men and women, kings and queens, brothers and sisters, guys and dolls, and host and hostess. This shows that the usage of many of the English words is also what contributes to the bias present in the English language.Alleen Pace Nilsenn notes that there are instances when women are seen as passive while men are active and bring things into being. She uses the example of the wedding ceremony. In the beginning of the ceremony, the father is asked who gives the bride away and he answers, “I do.” It is at this point that Nilsen argues that the gender bias comes into play. The traditional concept of the bride as something to be handed from one man (the father) to another man (the husband-to-be) is perpetuated. Another example is in the instance of sexual relationships. The women becomebrides while men wed women. The man takes away a woman’s virginity and a woman loses her virginity. This denotes her inability, apparently due to her gender, to hold on to something that is a part of her, thus enforcing the man’s ability and right to claim something that is not his.To be a man, according to some linguistic differences, would be considered an honor. To be endowed by genetics with the encoding of a male would be as having been shown grace, unmerited favor. There are far greater positive connotations connected with being a man than with being a woman. Nilsen yields the example of “shrew” and “shrewd.” The word “shrew” is taken from the name of a small but especially vicious animal; however in Nilsen’s dictionary, a “shrew” was identified as an “ill-tempered, scolding woman.” However, the word “shrewd,” which comes from the same root, was defined as “marked by clever discerning awareness.” It was noted in her dictionary as a shrewd businessman. It is also commonplace not to scold little girls for being “tomboys” but to scoff at little boys who play with dolls or ride girls’ bicycles.In the conversations that come up between friends, you sometimes hear the words “babe,” “broad,” and “chick.” These are words that are used in reference to or directed toward women. It is certainly the person’s right to use these words to reflect women, but why use them when there are so many more to choose from? Language is the most powerful tool of communication and the most effective tool of communication. It is also the most effective weapon of destruction.Although there are biases that exist in the English language, there has been considerable change toward recognizing these biases and making the necessary changes formally so that they will be implemented socially. It is necessary for people to make the proper adjustments internally to use appropriate language to effectively include both genders. We qualify language. It is up to us to decide what we will allow to be used and made proper in the area of language.语言中的性别偏见语言是一个非常强大的元素。

8.结婚蛋糕特别定制
自罗马时代开始,蛋糕就是节庆仪式中不可或缺的一部分。在那个时代,婚礼结束时,人们会在新娘头上折断一条面包。制造面包的材料——小麦,象征着生育能力。而面包屑则代表着幸运,宾客无不争着捡拾。依照中古时代的传统习俗,新娘和新郎要隔着蛋糕接吻。后来,想象力丰富的烘焙师傅在蛋糕上饰以糖霜,也就成了今天美丽可口的结婚蛋糕。
Mary: I will.
Priest: Families and friends,youare witnesses to these vows. Will you do everythingin your power to uphold Tom and Mary in their marriage?
Something Old:Something old must be something that has belonged to a happily married woman to ensure the transfer of happiness.

2.To develop the skill of expressing volume, distance and temperature.
3.To talk about the pros and cons of being married to someone from a different country.
8.新郎新娘赴酒店或度假地欢度新婚夜
一、西式婚礼的传统习俗
1.新娘抛花球:新娘会向在场所有尚未结婚的女性丢出手中的花束,而接到花束的女性被认为将会是下一个结婚的人。
2.新郎抛袜圈:为了公平起见,2012年发展出了新郎将新娘的袜带(garter)丢向未结婚的男性群,而接到的男性同样也会被认为将是下一个结婚的人
退场顺序:在仪式结束时,一对新人率先退场,身后是戒童和花童。姐妹团成员和伴郎团各成一队,两两一对。伴娘要先走,走在伴郎的右手边。如果人数不平均,一位伴郎要护送两名姐妹团成员离开;多出来一个伴郎便单独走,两个便组成一对同时行进。当队伍走到门口或仪式现场的后面时,指定的伴郎要回到里面护送新人的母亲、祖母和一些尊贵的客人退场。
All: We will.
Tom: I, Tom, in the presence of God, take you, Mary, to be my wife;
to have and to hold from this day forward,for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health,to love and to cherish, so long as we both shall live. All this I vow and promise.
3.婚戒要带在左手无名指上
古人认为左手无名指的血管直通心脏。中古世纪的新郎把婚戒轮流戴在新娘的三个手指上,以象征圣父、圣子和圣灵三位一体,最后就把戒指套在无名指上。于是左手的无名指就作为所有英语系国家传统戴婚戒的手指。
4.钻石:爱情的最高象征
热能和压力孕育出颗颗结晶的钻石。钻石是人类目前所知硬度最高的物质。在古代,人们并没有切割钻石的工具和技术。钻石因此自然成为永恒不渝的爱情的象征,孕育钻石的热能就代表着炽热的爱。
德国婚礼:砸碗盆图吉利
应邀前来参加婚礼的客人们,每人都带着几样破碗、破碟、破盘、破瓶之类的物品。然后玩命地猛砸猛摔一通,他们认为这样可以帮助新婚夫妇除去昔日的烦恼、迎来甜蜜的开端,在漫长的生活道路上,夫妻俩能够始终保持火热的爱情、终身形影相伴、白头偕老。

1.To get the joys and sorrows that arise when two people from different cultures get married.
Priest: God of steadfast love, by your blessing,let these rings be for Tom and Mary,a symbol of their love and faithfulness through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
丹麦婚礼:秘密进行
让我们感到奇怪的是,筹办婚姻会好几天,可却是秘密进行的,因为公开筹办会触怒鬼怪或引起他们的嫉妒。在婚庆快要结束的时候,人们把一大坛啤酒抬到园子里。新郎新娘的手握在酒坛上方,然后酒坛被打得粉碎。在场的适婚女子会把碎片捡起来,捡到最大的碎片的女子注定会第一个结婚,而捡到最小的注定会终生不嫁。
教学内容(教学时数:4)
婚礼是一种宗教仪式或法律公证仪式,其意义在于获取社会的承认和祝福,帮助新婚夫妇适应新的社会角色和要求,准备承担社会责任。所有的民族和国家都有其传统的婚礼仪式,是其民俗文化的继承途径,也是本民族文化教育的仪式。婚礼也是一个人一生中重要的里程碑,属于生命礼仪的一种。世界上最古老、延续时间最长,影响最广的婚礼是儒教婚礼、印度教婚礼、基督教婚礼,即三大文明圈的婚礼。在大部分的文化里,通常都会发展出一些结婚上的传统与习俗。西方的婚宴通常是在结婚仪式之后举行,其基本程序为:
9.蜜月旅行
“蜜月”(Honeymoon)一词的由来起源于古欧洲的习俗。新婚夫妇在婚后的30天内,或直到月缺时,每天都要喝由蜂蜜发酵制成的饮料,以增进性生活的和谐。古时候,蜂蜜是生命、健康和生育能力的象征。“蜜月”是新婚夫妇在恢复日常生活前的单独相处。
三.世界各国的奇怪婚俗
印度婚礼:为了祭祀
在印度教徒看来,结婚的首要目的是完成种种宗教职责,其中祭祀最为重要;但是,男子必须结婚生儿子才有资格向祖宗供奉祭品。因此,在结婚仪式上,夫妇双方为此念咒、祈祷、发誓,并且丈夫以妻子明确说道:我为了得到儿子才同你结婚。祭司等人也为此而祝愿他们。
Tom: I give you this ring,as a symbol of our marriage.With all that I am and all that I have .I honor you; in the name of God. Amen.
7Hale Waihona Puke 结婚典礼时站立位置:在踏上地毯走进通道时,新娘子一般站在左边,新郎站在右边,面对神父。伴郎站在新郎的旁边,戒童和伴郎们站在他的右边。主伴娘站在新娘子旁边,其他的伴娘团成员和花童站在她的左边。(新娘站在新郎的左边:古时候,盎格鲁-萨克逊的新郎常常必须挺身而出,以保护新娘子不被别人抢走。在结婚典礼上,新郎让新娘子站在自己的左边,一旦情敌出现,就可以立即拔出佩剑,击退敌人。)
Mary: I, Mary, in the presence of God, take you, Tom, to be my husband;to have and to hold from this day forward,for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health,to love and to cherish, so long as we both shall live.All this I vow andpromise.
Tom: I will.
Priest: Mary, will you give yourself to Tom, to be his wife,to live withhim according to God’s word?Willyou love him, comfort him, honor and protect him, and,forsaking all others, be faithful to him so long as you both shall live?
