After discussion, T may give Ss some suggestions on Overcoming Obstacles1)Get started.Often, once you begin, you'll find the task is easier than you expect.2)Break your task into smaller tasks.Take one big task and break it into smaller tasks. For instance, do part of your assignment each time rather than the entire one.3) Work with the time you have.Don't wait until you have time to do the entire thing. Instead, even if you only have fiveminutes, get started.4) Set small deadlines.After meeting each deadline, give yourself a reward. For example, play video games when you finish an hour of studying.5)Set anti-deadlines.If you don't finish your homework by 8:00, you can't watch your favorite TV program.6)Eliminate distractions.Turn off the TV. Don't answer the phone.7) Ask for help.Sometimes, the reason you don't start is because you don't know what to do.

Global ReadingQuestions about the text1. What does the text title “True Height” mean?It has more than one meaning. It may refer to:1) the new bar heights that Michael cleared one after another;2) the tremendous obstacles Michael had overcome in attaining his goal.2. As the text consists of the main story and a flashback, can you figure out the flashback?The flashback is from Para. 3~5* Part Division of the Text* Scanning practice:Scan the whole text to find out all the words and phrases that are related to sports or stadium. And think about their Chinese equivalents. (For more details, see ppt.)III. Detailed ReadingFurther UnderstandingFor Part 1Description : Use your own words to draw a picture of the stadium on that day, including the weather, Michael’s appearance and inner feeling, the audience’s response, etc.For Part 2Questions and Answers1.From the description of Michael’ parents, what can you learn about his parents(Michael’s mother is romantic and passionate, while his father is a hard-core realist.) 2．What personality traits are attribute d to Michael’s success?(He is diligent, perseverant, optimistic, ambitious, etc.)For Part 3Compare Michael’s reaction before and after he cleared the bar at different height of the pole ( See PPT : Global Reading Chart Completion )For Part 4Discussion1.Why does the author keep the secret about Michael’s blindness until the last sentence?2.Who would you admire better, a Michael Stone with a sound body or a blind Michael Stone?*Key words:. sweat, fantasy, numerous, passion, coincide, alternate, vain, startle, in one’s mind’s eye* Writing SkillsAs the text consists of the main story and a flashback, the narration has to switch from the ongoing competition to earlier events and then return to the ongoing competition. How does the author manage to make these parts in the text flow smoothly?1.One way is to repeat a key word in the last sentence of a paragraph in the first sentence of thenext paragraph, .It also has the element of flying, and the thought of flying as high as a two-story building is a mere fantasy to anyone watching such an event.As long as Michael could remember he had always dreamed of flying.2.Another way is to pick up a key idea from a previous paragraph and repeat it in the sentenceintroducing the next paragraph, .All of M ichael’s vaults today seemed to be the reward for his hard work.IV. After Reading* DictationDictate the following proverbs to students and translate them into Chinese1. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. 有志者事竟成。

It is a private, coeducational institution of higher education, the oldest in the United States, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.2.Ohio: one of the East North Central states of the United States. It is located on several main routes between the eastern and western United States. Columbus is its capital and largest city.Think About It:1. What do you know about Bill Gates?Answer:Bill Gates is the founder and the chairman of Microsoft Corporation. He is a world famous figure and a successful example for many young people to follow.2. What role do you think school education plays in a person’s life?Answer:School education plays an important role in my life.In my opinion, school education is a stepping stone towards success. Also, it provides an opportunity to learn of the world.3 .Do you want to pursue graduate study after you get your BA or BS? Explain.Answer:Those who go on pursuing a higher degree would be entitled to more opportunities later in life. But others may say working experience is more important. Personally, I haven’t yet made up my mind, as it is a little too early for me to make the decision.SummaryIt is well known that Bill Gates dropped out of college. Some people even think he never finished high school. In fact he finished three years at Harvard, where he studied a variety of subjects and only took one computer class. His main advice to students is to do much as he did, but to finish college before dropping out unless the opportunity of a lifetime appears. He feels students should not specialize too soon. If they do specialize they should also pursue othersubjects and make acceptable grades. Above all else he believes students should learn how to learn, so they can learn on their own outside the classroom. This in fact is how Gates learned most of what he knows about computers, though he apparently feels that most students needa somewhat more structured approach to education than he had.Culture Notescation in the U. S.Programs of instruction is offered to children, youths, and adults in the United States, through schools and colleges operated by state and local governments, as well as by private and religious groups. The development of formal education in the United States differed from that in other Western societies in three fundamental respects: First, Americans possessed a profound faith in education as a principal means to achieve increasingly complex individual and social goals. Second, Americans werepath-breakers in providing more years of schooling for a larger percentage of children and adolescents than any previous society. Third, Americans’ remarkable faith in mass schooling was implemented through a largely decentralized organization. Unlike the educational systems of other countries, which are usually directed and financed by the national government, American education in practice has been mainly, although not exclusively, the responsibility of the state and local governments.2. grade schools in the U.S.U.S. students generally go through elementary schools (kindergarten to 5th or 6th grade), middle schools (grades 6 – 8) or junior high schools (grades 7 – 9), and high schools (grades 9 – 12 or 10 – 12).3. Bill GatesBill Gates (1955 –? ), American business executive, Chairman of the Microsoft Corporation. He wasborn in Seattle, Washington. Gates co-founded Microsoft in 1975 with Paul Allen, his high school friend and partner in computer-language development since 1967.Fascinated by computers from the age of 12, Gates was involved with various programming projects throughout high school. While attending Harvard in 1975, Gates teamed with Allen to develop a version of the BASIC computer-programming language for the Altair, the first personal computer. As a result of this work on BASIC, Gates decided to drop out of Harvard in 1977 to work at Microsoft full-time, pursuing his vision of ―a computer on every desk and in every home,‖ the idea behind the company. In the early 1980s, Gates led Microsoft’s evolution from a developer of programming languages to a diversified software company producing operating systems and applications software as well as programming tools. This transition began in 1981 with Microsoft’s introduction of MS-DOS, the operating system for International Business Machines Corporation’s new Personal Computer (IBM PC). Gates persuaded other computer manufacturers to standardize on MS-DOS, fueling software compatibility and computer industry growth in the 1980s.Gates also pushed Microsoft to introduce application software, such as Microsoft Wordword-processing software for the IBM PC. In a key strategic move, Gates agreed to develop application software for the Apple Macintosh prior to the release of the first Mac in 1984. This was the beginning of a strong position for Microsoft in applications that take advantage of the graphical user interface (GUI).Much of Gates’ success rests on his ability to translate technical visions into market strategy, and to blend creativity with technical acumen. He is one of the few founding CEOs from the technical side of the PC industry who has also survived and thrived on the business side. Gates has accumulated great wealth from his holdings of Microsoft stock and is known for his personal and corporate contributions to charity and educational organizations. Gates continues to be personally involved in product development at Microsoft. His willingness to back new technologies such as Microsoft Windows, Windows NT, and workgroup applications has kept Microsoft at the forefront of computer hardware and software evolution.

Unit 5 Ways to SuccessPassage A My Advice to Students: Education CountsHundreds of students send me e-mail each year asking for advice about education. They want to know what to study, or whether it's okay to drop out of college since that's what I did.A smaller number of parents send messages, seeking guidance for their son or daughter. How can we steer our child toward success? they ask.My basic advice is simple and heartfelt: Get the best education you can. Take advantage of high school and college. Learn how to learn.It's true that I dropped out of college to start Microsoft, but I was at Harvard forthree years before dropping out--and I'd love to have the time to go back. As I've said before, nobody should drop out of college unless they believe they face the opportunity of a lifetime.

I actually don't know any high school dropouts, let alone any successful ones.In my company's early years we had a bright part-time programmer who threatenedto drop out of high school to work full-time. We told him no.Quite a few of our people didn't finish college, but we discourage dropping out.Having a diploma certainly helps somebody who is looking to us for a job.College isn't the only place where information exists. You can learn in a library. But somebody handing you a book doesn't automatically foster learning. You want to learn with other people, ask questions, try out ideas and have a way to test your ability. It usually takes more than just a book.Education should be broad, although it's fine to have deep interests, too.In high school there were periods when I was highly focused on writing software, but for most of my high school years I had wide-ranging academic interests. My parents encouraged this, and I'm grateful that they did.Although I attended a lot of different kinds of classes in college, I signed up for only one computer class the whole time.

It's fine to take a deep interest in computers, dance, language or any other discipline, but not if it jeopardizes breadth.If you fall into an obsessive pattern in high school, you've got two problems. One isthat you're unlikely to change when you go to college.

The state?s position on major east-west highways and railroads and its access to Lake Erie and the Ohio River, however, offered a large potential market for industrial production.
