Unit 1Section A The Tail of FameTeaching procedure:I. Warm-up Activities1.What do people seek fame for?1)For a rise in social position?2)For abundance of wealth?3)For drowning in fame’s glory?4)For refinement of social taste?5)For assimilation into high society?2.What side effects does fame seeking exert on one?1)Will it lead to the loss of your identity?2)Will it result in a life far from your original wishes?3)Will it deprive you of the freedom to express yourself freely?II. Background Information1.Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961):As one of the most famous American novelists, short story writers and essayists, Hemingway was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prize for Literature. His deceptively simple prose style has influenced a wide range of writers. His serious novel The Sun Also Rises appeared in 1926. The novel deals with a group of expatriates in France and Spain, members of the disillusioned post-World War I Lost Generation. It became his first great success as a novelist.The Old Man and the Sea, published first in Life magazine in 1952, again restored his fame. The 27,000 word novella told a story of an old Cuban fisherman named Santiago, who finally catches a giant marlin after weeks of not catching anything. As he returns to the harbor, the sharks eat the fish lashed to his boat. On July 2, 1961, Hemingway committed suicide with his favorite shotgun at his home.2. Robert Frost (1874-1963):As one of America’s leading 20th-century poets and a four-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Frost wrote poems whose philosophical dimensions transcend any region. His poetry is thus both traditional and experimental, regional and universal. He unquestionably succeeded in realizing his life’s ambition: to write “a few poems where they will be hard to get rid of.”3.Steven Spielberg (1946-):He has ever been perhaps Hollywood’s best-known director and one of the wealthiest filmmakers in the world, and also one of the most influential film personalities in the history of film. Spielberg has directed or produced many of the top-grossing films in Hollywood history, including E.T.: The Extra-Terrestria, Schindler’s List, Saving Private Ryan, etc.4.Oscar Wilde (1854-1900):He was an Irish playwright, novelist, poet,and short story writer. Known for his wit and flamboyance, he was one of the most successful playwrights of late VictorianLondon, and one of the greatest celebrities of his day. As the result of a famous trial, he suffered a dramatic downfall and was imprisoned for two years of hard labor after being convicted of the homosexual offences.III. Global ReadingMain Idea: The passage is a piece of argumentation which tries to convince us that seeking fame sometimes leads to one’s own destruction. Structure: The pattern of writing the writer adopts for the text is as follows:General Statement---Specific Argumentation---ConclusionPart 1 (Paras. 1 ): General Statement: Just as a dog chases its own tail, seeking fame often leads to self-destruction.Part 2 (Paras. 2-8) Specific Argumentation:As the writer argues, the conquest of fame is difficult at best, for many end up emotionally if not financially bankrupt. Even those who gain fame are hard-pressed to sustain their fans’ favor, because making minute changes to their popular style leaves them with a significant risk of losing favor with their fans. To sustain their fame, they have to give up the freedom to express themselves with any style other than their famous one. Oddly, the greatest winners are those who remain true to their quest for success after repeated failures. For most people, however, failure is the end of their struggle, not the beginning.Part 3 (Paras. 9)Conclusion:Rather than try so hard to seek fame, you should be happy with what you are and do what you are strong in. Maybe you won’t be famous in your own lifetime, but you may create better art.IV. Detailed Reading (language study & patterns)1. Sb. who do sth. be like sb. else doing sth. else who, when / once … (Para.1)…做某事的人如同他人做······,一旦······,就······ 用于表述“事物之间的类比”。

Unit 1 Nine to FiveSection 1 Lead-in1.Video and QuestionsWatch the video and answer the questions.Clip One.1). Why is the girl, Ryden Malby, screaming in the end?Clip Two.1). What does Ryden respond to the question “What are you up to” at the party?2). What does she say about her situation?Clip Three.1). Watch the clip to see if there is any difference between the three fathers’attitudes and behaviors? Which one do you prefer?2.Discussion1) What is the first problem facing the students leaving university?2) How do you think they will react if they can’t find a job?3) What do you think their parents will do if they can’t find a job?3. Listening in1). Listen to the recording and fill in the blanks with the words you hear.This is an article by an Education Correspondent, Alexandra Blair, published in September 2008 in The Times, a long-established British quality newspaper. For many graduates finding a job became harder in 2008 and 2009 because of the economic downturn – then a recession (萎缩). After their final exams, some student’s rested in the summer before looking for jobs and then found that it was difficult to find employment in their field or at the level they wanted. The article addresses the problem of such new graduates who might be stuck at home. The style is partly of a report, but also of a humorous comment for light entertainment.2). Listen to the passage and answer the questions.① Why are there more graduates looking for jobs?Because universities in Europe, particularly in Britain, have expanded greatly in the last fifteen years.② Why did the competitive situation of job market become even worse in 2008?Because of the credit crunch and economic depression that year.③ What is the advice the author gives to t he students?Active to seek a job, they need to fill in many application forms and try to get job interviews: they won’t find employment by lying on the sofa at home.Listening Script:Universities in Europe, especially in Britain, have expanded greatly in the lastfifteen years, so there are more graduates looking for jobs. This competitive situation became a lot worse in 2008 onwards with the credit crunch and economic depression, which means that there were fewer jobs available and a rise in unemployment. Thus new graduates have to be active to seek a job, they need to fill in many application forms and try to get job interviews: they won’t find employment by lying on the sofa at home.Section 2 Passage Learning1.Background informationCultural Note: Honors Degree1)Most people get a second.2)Traditionally, in the British university system, BA (文学学士) and BS (理学学士) are awarded in different categories: a first class degree (I), a second (IIi or IIii called “a two one” and “a two two”), a third (written III) anda pass degree.3)There are also ordinary degrees with more general courses of study without thesecategories.Key: 2,1,3Generation Y and Grunt1). Work in pairs and answer the question. How to name the generations and characterize them?2). Why is Generation Y is also called Generation Grunt?Complete the passage with the words in the box.express children available experienceIt is an ironic name referring to repetitive, low status, routine or mindless work – this may be the only work available to some graduates, who may have to take very ordinary jobs to get experience .“Grunt” also refers to coarse behavior or bad manners and to the deep sound that is made by a pig. When people “grunt” they express disgust but do not communicate with words – this may be how the parents of new graduates think their children communicate with them!2.Text organizationGeneral structure:Problems after graduation↓Advice for dealing with the problemsDetailed structure:↓viewpoints↗ ↗ ↖ ↖parents(Paras 1-2) author(Para 3) graduates (Paras 4-6) mother(Paras 7-9)Psychotherapi← author(Para 16)(Paras 10-15)↓ ↓Parents’ balance:positive → not making More exampleslife too comfortable↓Better for fathersto help boys after a job setback.↓It’s a good idea toget some jobs like bar work, shelf-stacking.rmation analysisWork in pairs. Look at the sentences and discuss the implied meanings unsaid. 1)“Will he ever get a job?” Who is asking this qu estion? What mood does it express?The parents are asking the question.The mood seems to express patience or resignation because the word “ever”suggests that getting a job will take a long time.2)Who describes Generation Y as “rebels without a cause”? I s it a fair description?This is the writer’s description to indicate that this generation is rebelling against parents or society, but they have nothing particular to rebel against.This does not seem very fair because the students are trying to find work – it is just that they don’t like their parents nagging them.3)[Jack] “walked into the university careers service and straight back out again”.What does this suggest about Jack’s character?It suggests that Jack is not very determined. As soon as he saw the queue he left without waiting and without trying to ask about jobs or careers.4)Jack spent the summer “hiding”.Hiding from what? Why are quotation marks used?Hiding from the world of work, staying at home and not looking for a job.The quotation marks tell us that he wasn’t literally hiding, he just spent a lot of time at home.5)How is Mrs. Goodwin’s point of view affected by her own personal experience?In one way her experience hasn’t affected her attitude. She left school and went immediately to a job (without going to university) and has been working full-time since then and yet she is sympathetic and takes a soft line.6)How is Lindenfield’s point of view affected by her own personal experiences?Her personal experience was that she worked in a bar before finding her first proper job as an aerial photographic assistant. So she says such work is a great networking opportunity. If new graduates are good at such work and bright, cheerful and polite, they will soon be promoted. Her personal experience thus reflects – or perhaps has created – her point of view.7)What would the first two paragraphs have focused on if they had been presented from the point of view of the students rather than the parents?The first two paragraphs would have focused on the need for the new graduates to rest for a bit after their hard studies. It is OK for students to relax with the TV or to socialize with friends for a while, then they can start a serious search for employment after that.4.Theme Discussion1) Do you think the Goodwins are good parents?Yes. If they take a hard line with Jack, it will just make him angry: He has already tried to find work and he needs rest and sympathy now. His parents are letting him go to South America. But after that he will have to make a more serious effort and he’ll need to contribute to the h ousehold budget, which means he must find work then. So the soft line is the best approach.No, their soft line is not good enough. They should insist that he make more effort and they should actively help him to find work, even a temporary job. Their soft approach just encourages him to delay and by the time he comes back from his holiday all the likely jobs will have been taken. So they are not really helping at all.How can they let him take a three week holiday abroad when he hasn’t got a job to come back.2) Which advice Lindenfield gives to parents do you agree with (if any), and why?I agree with her advice that parents should strike the right balance between beingpositive and understanding without making life too comfortable, otherwise students will not look for a job. Her advice about working in a bar or supermarket seems sensible too, because one job can lead to another.3 )Is Jack’s point of view that he doesn’t want to do temporary bar work justifiable?No. He thinks that kind of work is a dead-end job and not suitable for him. But he’s wrong because he has the wrong attitude toward work. A new graduate may expect to start at the bottom: That’s OK while you get experience. If you have a good attitude and work well, you will soon be promoted or you can find a much better job later. He’s unrealistic, I think.4) Do you agree that men can give boys better advice than women when they are stuck in setbacks? Why / Why not?Yes. Men will understand the male point of view better and conversely women will understand a female point of view better. So each gender will give the best advice to someone of their own gender.No, to understand setbacks in the search for work is not a gender issue. I think anyone who knows the situation can give good advice, whether they are male or female.5)Do you think the passage is a fair overview of the problem of graduate unemployment?No, because there is no mention of those who persistently apply for many jobs but don’t get interviews or offers of employment. The article seems to suggest that new graduates sit around at home, but I know many people who really search hard for work. Some find it, some don’t. It’s easy to say that this is a matter of luck, it is a matter of having a positive attitude and being flexible about the first job – you can always change your field of work later.5.SummaryListen to the passage and fill in the blanks with the words you hear.This text is a newspaper article with individual examples of job searching and problems after graduation. The problems are examined from different people’s viewpoints: paren ts’ attitudes towards their jobless children, students’ quote about looking for jobs, psychologists’ summery of the viewpoints of parents and advice for dealing with the problems, and the author’s own comments. In the end the author concludes that if the graduates cannot find an ideal job, they can takea temporary one.6.Language pointsDifficult sentences1.Those memories of forking out thousands of pounds a year so that he could eat welland go to the odd party, began to fade.

Unit 1 Nine to FiveSection 1 Lead-in1.Video and QuestionsWatch the video and answer the questions.Clip One.1). Why is the girl, Ryden Malby, screaming in the end?Clip Two.1). What does Ryden respond to the question “What are you up to” at the party?2). What does she say about her situation?Clip Three.1). Watch the clip to see if there is any difference between the three fathers’ attitudesand behaviors? Which one do you prefer?2.Discussion1) What is the first problem facing the students leaving university?2) How do you think they will react if they can’t find a job?3) What do you think their parents will do if they can’t find a job?3. Listening in1). Listen to the recording and fill in the blanks with the words you hear.This is an article by an Education Correspondent, Alexandra Blair, published in September 2008 in The Times, a long-established British quality newspaper. For many graduates finding a job became harder in 2008 and 2009 because of the economic downturn – then a recession (萎缩). After their final exams, some student’s rested in the summer before looking for jobs and then found that it was difficult to find employment in their field or at the level they wanted. The article addresses the problem of such new graduates who might be stuck at home. The style is partly of a report, but also of a humorous comment for light entertainment.2). Listen to the passage and answer the questions.①Why are there more graduates looking for jobs?Because universities in Europe, particularly in Britain, have expanded greatly in the last fifteen years.②Why did the competitive situation of job market become even worse in 2008?Because of the credit crunch and economic depression that year.③What is the advice the author gives to the students?Active to seek a job, they need to fill in many application forms and try to get job interviews: they won’t find employment by lying on the sofa at home.Listening Script:Universities in Europe, especially in Britain, have expanded greatly in the last fifteen years, so there are more graduates looking for jobs. This competitive situation became a lot worse in 2008 onwards with the credit crunch and economic depression, which means that there were fewer jobs available and a rise in unemployment. Thus new graduates have to be active to seek a job, they need to fill in many application forms and try to get job interviews: they won’t find employment by lying on the sofa at home.Section 2 Passage Learning1.Background informationCultural Note: Honors Degree1)Most people get a second.2)Traditionally, in the British university system, BA (文学学士) and BS (理学学士) areawarded in different categories: a first class degree (I), a second (IIi or IIii called “a two one” and “a two two”), a third (written III) and a pass degree.3)There are also ordinary degrees with more general courses of study without thesecategories.Key: 2,1,3Generation Y and Grunt1). Work in pairs and answer the question. How to name the generations and characterize them?2). Why is Generation Y is also called Generation Grunt?Complete the passage with the words in the box.express children available experienceIt is an ironic name referring to repetitive, low status, routine or mindless work – this may be the only work available to some graduates, who may have to take very ordinary jobs to get experience .“Grunt” also refers to coarse behavior or bad manners and to the deep sound that is made by a pig. When people “grunt” they express disgust but do not communicate with words – this may be how the parents of new graduates think their children communicate with them!2.Text organizationGeneral structure:Problems after graduation↓Advice for dealing with the problemsDetailed structure:Looking at the from various↓viewpoints↗↗↖↖parents(Paras 1-2) author(Para 3) graduates (Paras 4-6) mother(Paras 7-9)Psychotherapist →←author(Para 16)(Paras 10-15)↓↓Parents’ balance:positive →not making More exampleslife too comfortable↓Better for fathersto help boys after a job setback.↓It’s a good idea toget some jobs like bar work, shelf-stacking.rmation analysisWork in pairs. Look at the sentences and discuss the implied meanings unsaid.1)“Will he ever get a job?” Who is asking this question? What mood does it express?The parents are asking the question.The mood seems to express patience or resignation because the word “ever” suggests that getting a job will take a long time.2)Who describes Generation Y as “rebels without a cause”? Is it a fair description?This is the writer’s description to indicate that this generation is rebelling against parents or society, but they have nothing particular to rebel against.This does not seem very fair because the students are trying to find work – it is just that they don’t like their parents nagging them.3)[Jack] “walked into the university careers service and straight back out again”.What does this suggest about Jack’s character?It suggests that Jack is not very determined. As soon as he saw the queue he left without waiting and without trying to ask about jobs or careers.4)Jack spent the summer “hiding”.Hiding from what? Why are quotation marks used?Hiding from the world of work, staying at home and not looking for a job.The quotation marks tell us that he wasn’t literally hiding, he just spent a lot of time at home.5)How is Mrs. Goodwin’s point of view affected by her own personal experience?In one way her experience hasn’t affected her attitude. She left school and went immediately to a job (without going to university) and has been working full-time since then and yet she is sympathetic and takes a soft line.6)How is Lindenfield’s point of view affected by her own personal experiences?Her personal experience was that she worked in a bar before finding her first proper job as an aerial photographic assistant. So she says such work is a great networking opportunity. If new graduates are good at such work and bright, cheerful and polite, they will soon be promoted. Her personal experience thus reflects –or perhaps has created –her point of view.7)What would the first two paragraphs have focused on if they had been presented from the point of view of the students rather than the parents?The first two paragraphs would have focused on the need for the new graduates to rest for a bit after their hard studies. It is OK for students to relax with the TV or to socialize with friends for a while, then they can start a serious search for employment after that.4.Theme Discussion1)Do you think the Goodwins are good parents?Yes. If they take a hard line with Jack, it will just make him angry: He has already tried to find work and he needs rest and sympathy now. His parents are letting him go to South America. But after that he will have to make a more serious effort and he’ll need to contribute to the household budget, which means he must find work then. So the soft line is the best approach.No, their soft line is not good enough. They should insist that he make more effort and they should actively help him to find work, even a temporary job. Their soft approach just encourages him to delay and by the time he comes back from his holiday all the likely jobswill have been taken. So they are not really helping at all. How can they let him take a three week holiday abroad when he hasn’t got a job to come back.2)Which advice Lindenfield gives to parents do you agree with (if any), and why?I agree with her advice that parents should strike the right balance between being positiveand understanding without making life too comfortable, otherwise students will not look for a job. Her advice about working in a bar or supermarket seems sensible too, because one job can lead to another.3 )Is Jack’s point of view that he doesn’t want to do temporary bar work justifiable?No. He thinks that kind of work is a dead-end job and not suitable for him. But he’s wrong because he has the wrong attitude toward work. A new graduate may expect to start at the bottom: That’s OK while you get experience. If you have a good attitude and work well, you will soon be promoted or you can find a much better job later. He’s unrealistic, I think.4)Do you agree that men can give boys better advice than women when they are stuck in setbacks? Why / Why not?Yes. Men will understand the male point of view better and conversely women will understand a female point of view better. So each gender will give the best advice to someone of their own gender.No, to understand setbacks in the search for work is not a gender issue. I think anyone who knows the situation can give good advice, whether they are male or female.5)Do you think the passage is a fair overview of the problem of graduate unemployment?No, because there is no mention of those who persistently apply for many jobs but don’t get interviews or offers of employment. The article seems to suggest that new graduates sit around at home, but I know many people who really search hard for work. Some find it, some don’t. It’s easy to say that this is a matter of luck, it is a matter of having a positive attitude and being flexible about the first job – you can always change your field of work later.5.SummaryListen to the passage and fill in the blanks with the words you hear.This text is a newspaper article with individual examples of job searching and problems after graduation. The problems are examined from different people’s viewpoints: parents’attitudes towards their jobless children, students’quote about looking for jobs, psychologists’summery of the viewpoints of parents and advice for dealing with the problems, and the author’s own comments. In the end the author concludes that if the graduates cannot find an ideal job, they can take a temporary one.6.Language pointsDifficult sentences1.Those memories of forking out thousands of pounds a year so that he could eat well and goto the odd party, began to fade. (Para 1)2. I passed the exams, but at the interviews they accused me of being ‘too detached’andtalking in language that was ‘too technocratic’, which I didn’t think possible, but obviously it is.

What does Ryden respond to the question “What are you up to” at the party?2). What does she say about her situation?Clip Three.1). Watch the clip to see if there is any difference between the three fathers’attitudes and behaviors? Which one do you prefer?2.Discussion1) What is the first problem facing the students leaving university?2) How do you think they will react if they can’t find a job?3) What do you think their parents will do if they can’t find a job?3. Listening in1). Listen to the recording and fill in the blanks with the words you hear.This is an article by an Education Correspondent, Alexandra Blair, published in September 2008 in The Times, a long-established British quality newspaper. For many graduates finding a job became harder in 2008 and 2009 because of the economic downturn – then a recession (萎缩). After their final exams, some student’s rested in the summer before looking for jobs and then found that it was difficult to find employment in their field or at the level they wanted. The article addresses the problem of such new graduates who might be stuck at home. The style is partly of a report, but also of a humorous comment for light entertainment.2). Listen to the passage and answer the questions.① Why are there more graduates looking for jobs?Because universities in Europe, particularly in Britain, have expanded greatly in the last fifteen years.② Why did the competitive situation of job market become even worse in 2008?Because of the credit crunch and economic depression that year.③ What is the advice the author gives to t he students?Active to seek a job, they need to fill in many application forms and try to get job interviews: they won’t find employment by lying on the sofa at home.Listening Script:Universities in Europe, especially in Britain, have expanded greatly in the last fifteen years, so there are more graduates looking for jobs. This competitive situation became a lot worse in 2008 onwards with the credit crunch and economic depression, which means that there were fewer jobs available and a rise in unemployment. Thus new graduates have to be active to seek a job, they need to fill in many application forms and try to get job interviews: they won’t find employment by lying on the sofa at home.Section 2 Passage Learning1.Background informationCultural Note: Honors Degree1)Most people get a second.2)Traditionally, in the British university system, BA (文学学士) and BS (理学学士) are awarded in different categories: a first class degree (I), a second (IIi or IIii called “a two one” and “a two two”), a third (written III) anda pass degree.3)There are also ordinary degrees with more general courses of study without thesecategories.Key: 2,1,3Generation Y and Grunt1). Work in pairs and answer the question. How to name the generations and characterize them?2). Why is Generation Y is also called Generation Grunt?Complete the passage with the words in the box.express children available experienceIt is an ironic name referring to repetitive, low status, routine or mindless work – this may be the only work available to some graduates, who may have to take very ordinary jobs to get experience .“Grunt” also refers to coarse behavior or bad manners and to the deep sound that is made by a pig. When people “grunt” they express disgust but do not communicate with words – this may be how the parents of new graduates think their children communicate with them!2.Text organizationGeneral structure:Problems after graduation↓Advice for dealing with the problemsDetailed structure:↓viewpoints↗ ↗ ↖ ↖parents(Paras 1-2) author(Para 3) graduates (Paras 4-6) mother(Paras 7-9)← author(Para 16)(Paras 10-15)↓ ↓Parents’ balance:positive → not making More exampleslife too comfortable↓Better for fathersto help boys after a job setback.↓It’s a good idea toget some jobs like bar work, shelf-stacking.rmation analysisWork in pairs. Look at the sentences and discuss the implied meanings unsaid. 1)“Will he ever get a job?” Who is asking this question? What mood does it express?The parents are asking the question.The mood seems to express patience or resignation because the word “ever”suggests that getting a job will take a long time.2)Who describes Generation Y as “rebels without a cause”? Is it a fair description?This is the writer’s description to indicate that this generation is rebelling against parents or society, but they have nothing particular to rebel against.This does not seem very fair because the students are trying to find work – it is just that they don’t like their parents nagging them.3)[Jack] “walked into the university careers service and straight back out again”.What does this suggest about Jack’s character?It suggests that Jack is not very determined. As soon as he saw the queue he left without waiting and without trying to ask about jobs or careers.4)Jack spent the summer “hiding”.Hiding from what? Why are quotation marks used?Hiding from the world of work, staying at home and not looking for a job.The quotation marks tell us that he wasn’t literally hiding, he just spent a lot of time at home.5)How is Mrs. Goodwin’s point of view affected by her own personal experience?In one way her experience hasn’t affec ted her attitude. She left school and went immediately to a job (without going to university) and has been working full-time since then and yet she is sympathetic and takes a soft line.6)How is Lindenfield’s point of view affected by her own personal exp eriences?Her personal experience was that she worked in a bar before finding her first proper job as an aerial photographic assistant. So she says such work is a great networking opportunity. If new graduates are good at such work and bright, cheerful and polite, they will soon be promoted. Her personal experience thus reflects – or perhaps has created – her point of view.7)What would the first two paragraphs have focused on if they had been presented from the point of view of the students rather than the parents?The first two paragraphs would have focused on the need for the new graduates to rest for a bit after their hard studies. It is OK for students to relax with the TV or to socialize with friends for a while, then they can start a serious search for employment after that.4.Theme Discussion1) Do you think the Goodwins are good parents?Yes. If they take a hard line with Jack, it will just make him angry: He has already tried to find work and he needs rest and sympathy now. His parents are letting him go to South America. But after that he will have to make a more serious effort and he’ll need to contribute to the household budget, which means he must find work then. So the soft line is the best approach.No, their soft line is not good enough. They should insist that he make more effort and they should actively help him to find work, even a temporary job. Their soft approach just encourages him to delay and by the time he comes back from his holiday all the likely jobs will have been taken. So they are not really helping at all.How can they let him take a three week holiday abroad when he hasn’t got a jobto come back.2) Which advice Lindenfield gives to parents do you agree with (if any), and why?I agree with her advice that parents should strike the right balance between beingpositive and understanding without making life too comfortable, otherwise students will not look for a job. Her advice about working in a bar or supermarket seems sensible too, because one job can lead to another.3 )Is Jack’s point of view that he doesn’t want to do temporary bar work justifiable?No. He thinks that kind of work is a dead-end job and not suitable for him. But he’s wrong because he has the wrong attitude toward work. A new graduate may expect to start at the bottom: That’s OK while you get experience. If you have a good attitude and work well, you will soon be promoted or you can find a much better job later. He’s unrealistic, I think.4) Do you agree that men can give boys better advice than women when they are stuck in setbacks? Why / Why not?Yes. Men will understand the male point of view better and conversely women will understand a female point of view better. So each gender will give the best advice to someone of their own gender.No, to understand setbacks in the search for work is not a gender issue. I think anyone who knows the situation can give good advice, whether they are male or female.5)Do you think the passage is a fair overview of the problem of graduate unemployment?No, because there is no mention of those who persistently apply for many jobs but don’t get interviews or offers of employment. The article seems to suggest that new graduates sit around at home, but I know many people who really search hard for work. Some find it, some don’t. It’s easy to say that this is a matter of luck, it is a matter of having a positive attitude and being flexible about the first job – you can always change your field of work later.5.SummaryListen to the passage and fill in the blanks with the words you hear.This text is a newspaper article with individual examples of job searching and problems after graduation. The problems are examined from different people’s viewpoints: parents’ attitudes towards their jobless children, students’ quote about lo oking for jobs, psychologists’ summery of the viewpoints of parents and advice for dealing with the problems, and the author’s own comments. In the end the author concludes that if the graduates cannot find anideal job, they can take a temporary one.6.Language pointsDifficult sentences1.Those memories of forking out thousands of pounds a year so that he could eat welland go to the odd party, began to fade.
