大学英语三（读写）教案Students are asked to read the passage carefully again and answer some detailed questions on the screen. During the reading, there is an explanation for the following points:Language Points:1.That year every guy on campus had a leather jacket, and Rob couldn’t stand the idea of being the onlyfootball player who didn’t, so he made a pact that he’d give me his girl in exchange for my jacket. (Para.1) Meaning: That year every young man in the college wore a leather jacket. Rob was the only one in the football team who didn’t have one. He felt frustrated whenever he thought about it, so he made an agreement with me that if I gave him my leather jacket, he would, as an exchange, give me his girlfriend.make a pact: 达成协议in exchange for: 作为（对... 的）交换2.If I could show the elite law firms I applied to that I had a radiant, well-spoken counterpart by my side, Ijust might edge past the competition. (Para. 2)Meaning: When looking for a job, if I could show the top law companies that I had a partner who was not only beautiful but also intelligent and polite, I might well be able to gain an advantage over mycompetitors and successfully get a job offer.3. “Radiant” she was already. I could dispense her enough pearls of wisdom to make her “well-spoken”.(Para. 3)Meaning: She was already very beautiful. And I could teach her to speak intelligently so that she would sound very pleasant and smart when she speaks.Meaning beyond words: The word “dispense”, which means “give sth. to people”, shows that the narrator regards himself far superior to the girl. He is again boasting and praising himself. The word shows hisarrogance and conceit.4.After a banner day out, I drove until we were situated under a big old oak tree on a hill off the expressway.(Para.4)Meaning: After spending an excellent day out with her, I drove my car to a hill by the highway. I stopped when we were under a big old oak tree.banner a. 极好的；非常成功的n. 横幅；横幅标语5.She seemed to have a good time. I could safely say my plan was underway. I took her home and set a datefor another conversation. (Para. 15)Meaning: It seemed that she had enjoyed my logic lesson very much. I was pretty sure that my plan was going on smoothly. I drove her home and decided on a date for our next meeting.underway 在进行中set a date for 为.....定日期 e.g. They will set a date for the wedding.6. “The situations are altogether different. You can’t make an analogy between them”. (Para.24)Meaning: The situations are totally different. You can’t make a comparison between them.Make/ draw an analogy between: 在.....之间作类比E.g. It is difficult to make an analogy between cars and airplanes. 把汽车和飞机进行类比是很难的。

Conflicts occur when their children fail to reach their expectations. But why do parents tend to expect so much from their children?The harsh reality may be one reason for the high expectations. We can see such logic behind parents' expectations: If their children can study hard, then they will be admitted to key universities, and then they will be much more competitive in job hunting after graduation.The peer pressure is also a contributing factor. Parents tend to compare their kids to other kids interms of academic performance. Parents consider it a shame if their children always lag behind other children. So it is often the case that parents spare no efforts to send their children to expensive training centers.Parents' love for their kids provides another explanation for their burning desire to see the best of their kids. Parents will be proud if their children make great achievements. But sometimes such love becomes a heavy burden on their kids.The harsh reality, peer pressure and parents' love all account for the unreasonable expectations for the kids. To set reasonable expectations for the kids is not easy, but is worth trying; after all, parents don't want the heavy pressure to crush their children.9威尼斯是意大利北部一座世界闻名的岛城：威尼斯建立于公元5世纪，在公元10世纪时成为一支重要的海上力量。

Unit 4 Section A The surprising purpose of travel令人惊奇的旅行目的1 It's 4:15 in the morning, and my alarm clock has just stolen away a lovely dream. I almost return back to sleep before my eye catches my packed suitcase and I groan, remembering that I'm going to the airport. The taxi is late and then lost, and I'm getting increasingly nervous that I'll miss my flight. I run in when we arrive, stagger through security and finally get to my gate. After all the trouble of this morning, my flight is canceled and I'm stuck in this terminal for the next 218 minutes, and my only consolation is a cup of complimentary airport coffee. This is traveling, a burdensome series of running and waiting, and after countless hours, finally getting there.1 早晨四点一刻，闹钟把我从美梦中惊醒，要不是突然看见早已收拾好的行李箱，我几乎又要睡着。
想起来还要去机场，我叹了口气。
出租车来晚了，并且在途中迷了路，我越来越担心会赶不上飞机。
出租车一到机场我就冲进去，跌跌撞撞通过安检处，终于，我来到了登机口。
经历这一早所有的麻烦事，我乘坐的航班却被取消了。
在接下来的218 分钟里，我被困在了机场，唯一觉得安慰的是机场提供的一杯免费咖啡。
这就是旅行，让人心烦的跑跑停停。
最终，在不知经过多少小时之后，终于到达要去的地方。
1 It's 4:15 in the morning, and my alarm clock has just stolen away a lovely dream. (Para. 1) Meaning: It's 4:15 in the morning and my alarm clock has just woken me up from a lovely dream. Note: In Paragraph 1, present tenses are used to describe a scene which is not actually happening and to make the imaginary scene seem more immediate and more real.2 I run in when we arrive, stagger through security and finally get to my gate. (Para. 1)Meaning: I run in after we arrive, walk unsteadily through security and get to the place where I should get on the plane.Note: The word gate here means "the place at the airport where people get on a plane".3 … I'm stuck in this terminal for the next 218 minutes, and my only consolation is a cup of complimentary airport coffee. (Para. 1)Meaning: … I am trapped in this ter minal for the next 218 minutes and my only comfort is a free cup of coffee offered by the airport.Note: The author used 218 minutes instead of 3 hours and 38 minutes in order to emphasize the trouble of waiting for a long time.4 This is traveling, a burdensome series of running and waiting, and after countless hours, finally getting there. (Para. 1)Meaning: Traveling means we have to spend countless hours running and waiting before we finally get to the destination, which is quite troublesome.2 Why do we travel? I don't mind the actual flying, the wonder of being airborne in a dense metal bird. The rest of the journey, however, can feel like a tedious lesson in the ills of modernity, from the predawn x‐ray screening to the sad airport malls selling clusters of keepsakes. It's the result ofa globalized world, and it sucks.2 我们为什么要旅行？其实，我并不介意飞行本身，在这样一个密实的金属大鸟中飞行，让我感到很奇妙。
然而，旅程其余的部分，从一大早X 光检查到出售大堆纪念品的糟糕的机场商场，感觉就像是关于现代社会弊病的乏味课程。
这是全球化的结果，它糟糕透了。
5 I don't mind the actual flying, the wonder of being airborne in a dense metal bird. (Para. 2) Meaning: I don't mind the flying itself as it is a great wonder that the plane, like a heavy metal bird, can fly in the sky.6 The rest of the journey, however, can feel like a tedious lesson in the ills of modernity, from the predawn x-ray screening to the sad airport malls selling clusters of keepsakes. (Para. 2) Meaning: But the rest of the journey is very boring. You have to endure and tolerate the problems and difficulties brought by modernity, such as going through the x-ray screening early in the morning and wandering around the terrible airport shopping departments selling various keepsakes.Note: The word ills means "problems and difficulties", and screening literally means "tests done to check someone for a particular disease", here x-ray screening means "the process of testing passengers and their luggage for possible dangers". The word keepsake means "a small object that you keep in order to remind you of something or someone".7 It's the result of a globalized world, and it sucks. (Para. 2)Meaning: It is the result of globalization, and that's too bad and very annoying.Note: Here, suck means "be very bad, very annoying, etc." This is used only in the present tense.3 Sometimes, of course, we travel because we need to. Because in this digital age, there is still something important about the handshake at a business luncheon. Or eating mom's special food on Thanksgiving. Or seeing your girlfriend on your 2‐year anniversary.3 当然，有时候我们旅行是因为我们需要去旅行。
