一、选择题1.Cartoons are very ________, so I am very _______ in them.A.interested, interesting B.interesting, interested C.interested, interested D.interesting, interesting B解析:B【解析】句意:卡通非常有趣,所以我对它们很感兴趣。

“interesting”为“有趣的”,用来形容物,“be interested in”为固定搭配“对…感兴趣”,所以本题中描述“cartoon”只能用“interesting”,后半句说我感兴趣需要借助固定搭配“be interested in”,故选B。

点睛:本题要懂得在看到选项时第一眼就确定这是在考察区分“ed结尾形容词”和“ing结尾形容词”的区别,秘诀在于“ed”结尾往往是在描述人,“ing”结尾往往是在描述物,结合句子的主语就能迅速做出判断了。

She was sitting high with her eyes closed, her skin still wet from the shower and her messy hair behind her back. I realized she was taking in every touch from my hands. Today we would send Kitty away for a week of a summer camp. This was all my idea. She's nearly 12, and I notice that I'm with my child nearly 2 4 hours a day. Living on the farm without neighbours, Kitty has become increasingly dependent(依赖的) on me.After lunch, we drove to the camp place. After we got out of the car, we were introduced to the other children. Kitty followed me closely, holding my hand all the time. “I need you for a few more minutes,” she said to me, horror in her eyes.I pulled away and walked up to a camp worker. “Excuse me,” I said loudly,“I'd like to introduce you to my daughter. Maybe you could help her meet a few of these kids.” He came over to talk to Kitty and I kissed on her face. Then we all disappeared before Kitty realized we had left.On my way home, I felt a piece of my soul(灵魂) had been taken away from my body. I began to shake. Tears came down my face. When I arrived home, I calmed down and reminded myself why I chose this path. “I want Kitty to have a chance to find herself, out of my shadow(影子). If I don't set her free, I'm afraid she won't be independent(独立的) forever,” I said to myself.1.How long would the camp last?A.5 days.B.7 days.C.12 days.D.24 days.2.What does the underlined phrase“taking in”mean in Paragraph 2?A.感受B.拒绝C.索要D.感谢3.How did Kitty feel when she arrived at the camp?A.Cool.B.Excited.C.Scared.D.Tired.4.Which of the following about the writer is NOT true according to the passage?A.She thought it good for her girl to go camping.B.She was willing to do everything for her girl.C.She knew she made the right decision at last.D.She felt sad on her way back from the camp.5.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Kids should not stay with their parents.B.Kids should often go out for summer camps.C.Parents should not give their children any help.D.Parents should help their children to be independent.C阅读短文,选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,每个选项只能用一次Money vs FamilyRama's family is very big.

The artist once loved buying new clothes and small things for her home. Her house was always messy(凌乱的). Her family and friends often told her, “Wow, you have a lot of things! Could you buy fewer things and clean up your messy house?”Again and again, Elizabeth got a little impatient(不耐烦的) but started thinking about her spending habits. Guess what! She found her family and friends were right. She wanted to alter her ways.Elizabeth read about many people trying not to buy anything in a year, and she even found out that some of her friends were doing the same. She thought it was a great idea and decided to give it a try. Of course, she would pay for necessary things such as food and gifts for family and friends. But she would try not to buy new clothes or things that she didn't need. At the same time, she made lists(清单)of the things she had and decided to sell or give away 100 things by the end of the year.Now Elizabeth finds that there are fewer things in her house, and that her houseis tidier than before. And she is living a more comfortable and greener life. Elizabeth is happy and is thinking about keeping to the plan next year. She believes that she will do it better.5. From Paragraph 1 we know that Elizabeth ____.A. loved shopping in the pastB. wants to be an artistC. cleans her house every dayD. made many clothes for her friends6. What does the underlined word “alter” in Pa ragraph 2 probably mean?A. Keep.B. Share.C. Change.D. Know.7. What did Elizabeth do to keep to the plan?①She planted vegetables. ②She stopped buying new clothes.③She sold the things she didn't need. ④She made gifts for her family and friends.A. ①②B. ②③C. ②④D. ③④8. What's the purpose(目的)of this passage?A. To show how the writer likes the artist.B. To tell more people to live a greener life.C. To ask people to give their old things to people in need.D. To tell us how a woman dropped old spending habits.CYears ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write about them in his diary. Now a teenager might surf the Internet and write about his problems in his blog. In some ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. What makes a blog different from a diary? The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public (公开的) than a diary. I have a younger sister, and sometimes I read her blog. She writes about things like getting up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her maths exam. When I was her age, I wrote about the same things but only in my diary. After I finished writing, I would put my diary in a secret (秘密的) place because I was worried that someone else might read it.A blog is public so it has some bad points. The biggest problem is that anyonecan read what you write. If I am angry with a friend during school and write something bad about him in my diary, he will never know. However, if my sister writes something bad about a friend, that friend may read her blog and cry. So we must be very careful to write.Blogs have good points, of course. If I feel lonely (孤独的) and write “Nobody cares about me” in my diary, no one will know about it. However, if my sister writes the same words in her blog, her friends will quickly reply and tell her how much they like her. A blog helps people keep in touch with their friends.If people are careful, writing blogs is really a good way to communicate (交流) with others. However, I still enjoy my diary!9. In the past, teenagers often wrote about their problems ____.A. to their teacherB. in their blogsC. to their friendsD. in their diaries10. Why did the writer put her diary in a secret place?A. Because she was worried that someone else might read it.B. Because she didn't want to communicate with others.C. Because she wanted others to read her diary.D. Because she liked her diary very much.11. What's the bad point of blogs?A. People will be angry after reading your blog.B. People can keep in touch with their friends.C. Anyone can read what you write.D. Nobody cares about others.12. What does the passage mainly tell us?A. The reason why the writer likes blogs.B. The good points and the bad points of blogs.C. How to make friends by writing blogs.D. How to keep secrets in diaries.DThere were once two guitar makers in a town in Mexico. One was known for lowprices and the other for the high quality (质量).The young maker, who made the cheap guitars, could make guitars very quickly. The__old__maker__spent__much__time__and__paid__much__attention__to__the__ quality. Everyone wanted to buy a guitar because it was a sign of being rich, so both makers were very busy.But bad times came to the town and no one had much money. The young maker did well, but the old maker went out of business because no one could afford his guitars.After a few years, the cheap guitars people bought began to fall apart. Some people were so angry that they went to the young guitar maker's house to get their money back. They pulled him from his home and pushed him onto the ground.Suddenly, someone called from behind the crowd, “How can you blame (责怪) him? He never said his guitars were perfect. It is all of you who are to blame. You only cared about how they made you look!” It was the old guitar maker. “I have spent my whole life learning how to make good guitars. Something that is really good takes a lot of time and effort. ” Hearing this, those people left.“Please teach me how to make good guitars,” sai d the young man. The old man taught him and the young man taught others. Now, the town is known as the guitar capital of Mexico.13. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means “____”.A. The old maker wasn't good at making guitars quickly.B. It took the old maker much time to make one guitar.C. The old maker wasted much time making cheap guitars.D. The old maker thought it unnecessary(没必要的) to make good guitars.14.

We should buy expensive things.B. Cheap things are always bad.C. The young should learn from the old.D. Good things usually take a lot of time to make.第二节阅读短文,从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,其中有一个多余的选项。

Changes in British Family

Changes in British Family

Changes in British FamilyABSTRACT The past century has witnessed huge changes with respect to family in Britain, notably the increase of number of single-person families,cohabiting households,sing-parent families and stepfamilies.The average married age of British people has been older than it was in the past,and divorce rate has also become higher.Ever the parent-child relationships have experienced transformation.The above changes have been driven by different factors from economy to technology and also had influence over other changes taking place in other fields of the society.KEY WORDS Britain,change,cohabitation,divorce,family,family structure,household, marriage,parent-child relationship,parenthood,social attitudesGreat changes have taken place in the family in Britain.The once typical British family headed by two parents has undergone substantial changes during the twentieth century.In particular,there has been a rise in the number of single-person households,which increased from18to29percent of all households between1971and2002.By the year2020,it is estimated that there will be more single people than married people.Fifty years ago this would have been socially unacceptable in Britain.In the past,British people got married and stayed married.Divorce was very difficult, expensive and took a long time.Today,people's views on marriage are changing.Manycouples,mostly in their twenties or thirties,cohabit without getting married.Only about60% of these couples will eventually get married.In the past,people married before they had children,but now about40%of children in Britain are born to unmarried parents.In2000,around a quarter of unmarried people between the ages of16and59were living together in Great Britain.Cohabiting couples are also starting families without first being married.Before1960this was very unusual,but in2001 around23percent of births in the UK were to cohabiting couples.People are now generally getting married at a later age and many women do not want to have children immediately.They prefer to concentrate on their jobs and put off having a baby until late thirties.The number of single-parent families is increasing.This is mainly due to more marriages ending in divorce,but some women are also choosing to have children as lone parents without being married.The past decade has witnessed a dramatic growth of cohabitation rate of64%,and nearly50%of children are now born outside wedlock.There is also a high divorce rate in the UK,since2out of3marriages end up divorce--the highest rate in European countries (Zhang et al.138).Another change in family has found expression in the attitude of adults towards children. Parents tend to treat their children more equally than they used to and offer more freedom to their children as regards decision making in life(Wu317).Plenty of factors have contributed to the above changes,among which the very important ones are changes in social norms and relaxation in attitudes towards sex,changesin legislation,including divorce and civil partnerships,the mass employment of women and the impact of science and technology(Evans et al.14).As the progressive increase of replacement of traditional families by various ofnon-traditional family structures such as reconstituted families,where divorced parents form new relationships and take their children with them,cohabiting parents,and single parents. Public attitudes towards these new types of families have become gradually relaxed as they have prevailed in British society(Evans et al.14).The majority of British people agreed that social difference between“being married and living together”is little and a slightly smaller majority believe that“living with a partner shows just as much commitment as getting married”(Duncan5).The introduction of the1969Divorce Reform Act,which provided the single ground of irretrievable breakdown for divorce,has no doubt been a catalyst for the changes in British family(Cabinet Office25).In the2008government research,60%believed that“divorce rate has been higher because it is easier than it was previously”(Cabinet Office35).Changes in legislation have also allowed the formalisation of entirely new kinds of families.The introduction of civil partnerships is the most powerful example,and the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill,which has allowed lesbian parents to have their own biological children, and anti-discrimination laws about adoption,have also allowed gay couples to become families with children(Evans et al.15).One of the key drivers behind society’s attitudinal change towards the roles within families has been the increase of women in the labour market,which has enabled women tolive a financially independent life from their respective male partner.Therefore the growth of single-mother family has become a matter of course.Besides,the recent advancement of science and technology has also played a role in reshaping the family structures in Britain.The introduction of reliable contraceptives such as pill has presented women with greater choice and control in family planning so as to fit in with their employment,family condition and financial stability,which has usually led to deferred motherhood and smaller family sizes.The technological development of household appliances has significantly minimised the time and effort required to maintain a household, giving women more flexible time to consider employment outside the family home. Furthermore,more and more parents are now able to combine their careers with parental responsibilities with the help of new technology,particularly computers(Evans et al.19).As result of the above changes,smaller families are now common in Britain,so there are not so many relatives to visit in any case.Therefore,people tend to visit members of family like grandparents,aunts,uncle,cousins less often than they once used to.When stating that their society is based on family life,British people consider“family”more as narrow, peculiarly European sense of mother,father and children living together alone in a house as an economic and social unit(Wu318)than that extended family in the past.The stability of family in Britain is now weakened by the changes in family structures, compared to that of the previous generation.A relaxation of social attitudes towards marriage means that it is no longer seen as unusual to be involved in a“complicated”family structure (Evans et al.10).It is a common phenomenon that children are brought up in families with cohabiting parents,different parents--in stepfamilies,or with one parent figure missing.According to Evans et al.,children grow up in the above types of families“are more likely to experience poverty,poor health and wellbeing and be involved in antisocial behaviour”(5).As the social-economic condition is changing,families in Britain are continuing evolving.Various predictions have been made by people of the trends and future of the British family.However,nobody could say exactly what will happen in the future.Without doubt,the British society itself will take its own course with regard to the development of the basic social unit-the family.Cited ListsCabinet Office/The Strategy Unit.“Families in Britain:An Evidence Paper.”Department for Children,Schools and Families.2008.Web.8December2014.Duncan,S.and Phillips,M.“New Families?Tradition and change in modern relationships.”National Centre for Social Research.24.(2008):n.5.Print.Evans,Natalie,Sarah Jenkins,and Isabella Pereira.“Families in Britain:the impact of changing family structures”Policy Exchange.Web.10December2014.Wu,Fei.British Society and Culture.Wuhan:Wuhan University Press,2012.Print.

Unit 10 Reflections on Life新编大学英语第二版第三册教案

Unit 10 Reflections on LifeUseful InformationOne of the most well-known sculptures in the world is called “The Thinker”. It was created by the French sculptor, Auguste Rodin, in the late 1800s. It shows a strong, powerful man sitting with his elbow propped on his knee and his chin in his hand. This sculpture is both an illustration of Rene Descartes’ famous affirmation “I think, therefore I am” and a portrayal of a man captured in a moment of deep thought. The capacity to think and to reflect is unique to humans. Rodin’s sculpture symbolizes the essence of mankind.There are many types of thought processes including deductive and inductive reasoning, contemplation, meditation, and daydreaming. Reflection usually implies careful and deliberate thinking about actions, events or experiences. Most people take time to reflect before doing something really important or to analyze significant events in their past.Some people have the time and the self-discipline to keep a record of their daily thoughts and activities in the form of a diary or a journal. One normally associates published journals with famous explorers, statesmen, and writers. One of the rare and best-known diaries written by a young person is that of Anne Frank. She described the daily life of her family while they were living in hiding in Amsterdam during the German occupation of Holland. Her diary, discovered after her death at the age of 16 in a German concentration camp, was translated and published in many languages. Despite her young age, Anne Frank provided profound and moving reflections on a significant period of history.Unless one is living in exceptional circumstances, like Anne Frank, the way one looks at life changes with time. When we are young, we do not look back pensively very often. Our thoughts focus on the pleasures and disappointments of the present and on the hopes and expectations of the future. As we grow older, however, we reminisce and reflect more on our past experiences.The joys of life also vary depending on one’s age. We associate youth with boundless energy and exuberance. Whereas the young man might take great pleasure in climbing to the top of a mountain to gaze at the world from up high, the older man might prefer to stroll in a park and contemplate the glorious colors of a sunset. With each age, come different kinds of happiness. But no matter how old we are, it is always worth pausing for a moment to appreciate the joys of living and how lucky we are to be alive.Autobiographies are rarely, if ever, written by young men and women. Like published diaries, they are usually the product of statesmen like Benjamin Franklin or Winston Churchill who want to share their personal and political analyses of historical events. There are many autobiographies of movie stars and other celebrities but they are generally ghost-written and, as such, not entirely authentic.Obviously reflecting on life does not mean that one has to have a publication in mind or that one has to analyze a period of many years. On the contrary, “taking time to smell the roses”, as the well-known saying goes, can be beneficial and fulfilling at any time of the day. It is so easy to get caught up in the busy routine of daily life that one forgets to pause and question one’s actions and motives. On e of the most important steps in personal development is the capacity to stop and reflect. By sitting peacefully and reflecting on what we have done or what we are about to do, we too capture the universal gesture of Rodin’s “Thinker”.Part One PREPARATION1. The Thinker1) -- A strong man is sitting with his chin in his hand and is trying to show the importance of thought in the life of humans.2) -- The Thinker is thinking about his future;-- He is thinking about his past and is trying to understand what he did wrong;-- He is reflecting on the meaning of life;-- He is trying to figure out what is the best thing to do next.2. Appreciating a PoemDon’t QuitWhen things go wrong as they sometimes will,When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,When the funds are low, and the debts are high,And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,When care is pressing you down a bit—Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.Success is failure turned inside out,The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,And you never can tell how close you are,It may be near when it seems afar,So, stick to the fight when you are hardest hit—It’s when things go wrong that you mustn’t quit.3. Where Does Your Mind Fly?Samples-- I daydreamed of having a plane of my own so that I can fly around the world;-- I daydreamed of winning a lottery and I can do whatever I want with the money;-- I daydreamed that one day the world may stop revolving;-- I daydreamed of being a successful businessman with hundreds of people working for me.-- I daydreamed of becoming the president of the country;-- I daydreamed of being a prominent scientist and giving lectures to college students.The Power of a MaximSome Maxims for reference:Experience is a dear teacher, but fools will learn at no other.---Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)Be not afraid of life. Believe that life IS worth living and your belief will help create the fact."--- James Truslow Adams (1878-1949)( American historian, writer)Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for."--- Joseph Addison (1672-1719)( English essayist, poet, statesman)Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at 2 or 80. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young."--- Moshe Arens (b. 1925) ( Israeli defense minister)Each of us has a spark of life inside us, and our highest endeavor ought to be to set off that spark in one another."--- Kenny AusubelSampleMy favorite maxim is a sentence written by the British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli: Life is too short to be little. It always reminds me of the value of time. It has helped me through many a painful experience.In our life, we are often upset by little things that we should forget. Perhaps we are not satisfied with what we did, and some people we believe to be our dear friends are not faithful to us. Or a reward we thought we deserve has been denied us. We are so strongly dissapointed. But is it necessary for us to focus our attention on such trifles? Life is short, and we have only a few more decades to live. We lose many valuable hours dwelling on these things. We can’t gain or achie ve anything by doing so and neither can we workefficiently when we are in a bad mood. So, we should devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to real affections and beneficial changes.Part TWO Reading-Centered ActivitieIn-Class ReadingPre-ReadingDirections: Discuss the three questions in pairs.1) I felt I was having a brand-new start. Life would be different as I was beginning to live in a totally different environment and meet a lot of new people. Many things were strange at first and I believed I would adjust to the new life quickly.2) Yes, I have thought carefully about my past and my future. I think it is absolutely necessary to think about them because by doing so we can learn from our past experiences and profit from our mistakes. And we can set goals and make plans for the future. It will help us avoid making the same mistakes and have a brighter future.3) -- Sometimes I think I know myself quite well, but sometimes not. It is difficult to analyze oneself. We may behave differently in different circumstances. That is why I think it is difficult, or to be more exact, impossible to say what kind of person I am.-- In general, I think I know myself. For example, I know what I can do and what I’d like to do. I have my own principles of life and I’ll never go beyond the bottom line. I know my weaknesses. For example, I’m not a tough person and sometimes it’s difficult for me to keep calm and cool. Very often I’m not hard-working, depending on luck most of the time.Passage ReadingWords, Phrases and Grammatical Points1. distract (l.13)Some phrases with “distract”:1) distract attentionI) They tried to distract attention from the crisis.II) Coverage of the war was used to distract attention from other matters.2) distract somebody/something from somethingI) Don't distract your father while he's driving.II) We must let nothing distract us from our purpose.2.

Understanding Specific InformationDirections: Choose the best answer for each item.1) A 2) C 3) B 4) C 5) A 6) B4. Understanding Figurative LanguageNoteFigurative language refers to words and phrases used in unusual ways to create strong, vivid images, to focus attention on certain ideas, or to compare things that are basically different. When words and phrases are used figuratively, they have meanings other than their usual, or literal, meaning. There are several types of figurative language:1) Simile (明喻): a direct comparison between otherwise dissimilar things, using the word like or as.I) The fog hung like a veil over the campus.II) The lake looked like a huge mirror.III) The child’s eyes were as big as saucers.2) Metaphor (隐喻): a comparison between otherwise dissimilar things without using the word like or as.I) Pale and thin, she was a shadow of her former self.II) Swimming against the tide often leads to success.III) Life is a highway.Metaphors are used in many proverbs.I) The early bird catches the worm.II) Don’t judge a book by its cover.III) The exam was a piece of cake.IV) Blood is thicker than water.3) Personification (拟人法): the assignment of a human trait to a non-human thing.I) A smiling moon peeped out of the clouds.II) The car coughed when it climbed up the hill.4) Irony (讽刺法): the use of words to suggest the opposite of their usual sense.Told that the car repair would cost $2,000 and take at least two weeks, she said, “Oh, that would be wonderful!”5) Overstatement (also called hyperbole 夸张法): deliberate exaggeration for emphasis.If I don’t get this paper in on time, the professor is going to kill me.6) Understatement (反叙法): deliberate restraint for emphasis.It gets a little warm when the temperature reaches 40oC.7) Analogy (类比法): a comparison of similar traits between dissimilar thingsPraise is to children what the sun is to flowers.I can concentrate with the intensity of a beam of sunshine focused through a magnifying glass.This is a metaphor. The author means that he can concentrate with great intensity. The intensity of his concentration is compared to that of a beam of sunshine shining through a magnifying glass.2) My curiosity burns brighter.This is a metaphor. The author means that he becomes more curious than ever. His curiosity is like a fire that burns with more intensity and thus becomes brighter.3) What I know, compared with what I do not know, is like a grain of sand by the sea.This is a simile. The author recognizes the limitations of his knowledge and stresses the immensity of his ignorance.4) When she dies an ocean of tears will flow.This is a metaphor and hyperbole. The author means that when his wife dies, many people will weep. Their tears are compared to an ocean.5) It is as though nerve endings had lost touch with one another.This is a simile and personification. The author compares the failure of communication to disconnected nerve endings. The phrase “lose touch with” is used to describe people who are no longer communicating with each other, so this sentence involves personification.5. Questions for Group Discussion1) Yes, I think curiosity is important for success. Curiosity means that you are eager to learn about things, people or places. If you are curious, you tend to ask a lot of questions and then you’ll be able to update and enrich your knowledge when you know the answers. However, to become successful, to reach your goals, curiosity alone is not enough. You have to think of improving yourself all the time.2) Yes. If everybody in society were exactly the same, it would be a very boring world. For example, friends usually have many things in common, but often it is3.1) inherited from 2) distracts from 3) confronted with 4) probe 5) regardless of6) perceive 7) have identified 8) make up 9) limitations 10) geniusTranslation1. When he returned to his office, he was confronted with an enormous pile of work.2. The captain of this football team scored two wonderful goals early on in the game.3. Provided they are fit, I don’t know why they won’t go on playing for another three or four years.4. In emergencies he can still make sound judgments.5. While I admit that there are problems, I don’t agree that they cannot be solved.6. He went on listening to her, at times impatient and at times fascinated.7. We must find a way to resolve these problems before it is too late.8. Parents cannot always have the school of their choice for their children.Part Three FURTHER DEVELOPMENT1. 1) A 2) B 3) A 4) B 5) B 6) C 7) C 8) B 9) B 10) A2. Talking about Your Reflections on LifeSTEP ONEDirections: Fill in the blanks with the proper verbs.Life Is A Challenge ---Meet It!Life Is A Song – Sing It!Life Is A Dream - Realize It!Life Is A Game – Play It!Life Is Love --- Enjoy It!STEP TWOWhat is life like in your opinion?Life is a precious gift to me. Thanks to my parents, I came to this wonderful world. As I grow up, the world fills me with awareness of the wonder of life, with a feeling of the incredible marvel of being a human. There are so many unknown things to explore in my life. I can see, breathe, smell, taste most of the things around me. I am motivated by my curiosity towards these things all day. So I want to enjoy more in my life and get the most out of it. As we can see, life is something we have to work hard to enjoy and cherish. Life is also something we should dedicate ourselves to so as to share with others. I agree with what is listed in Step One about life and we should always do something.3. An Influential Person in Your LifePossible answers:Bill Gates—He is very clever, creative, hard-working and very rich;Michael Jordan—He was born with natural talent and he worked very hard to become the best basketball player in the world;My English teacher in middle school—She was strict, but she gave me a lot of encouragement and helped me discover how to learn a language;My father—He is a very hard-working man who taught me how to be honest, independent and courageous.4. You and Your Grandparents1)Grandparents in China love young people very much. Some of them take care of their grandchildren with great kindness. At the gate of kindergartens and primary schools, you can find many elderly people waiting for their beloved grandchildren; in parks and children’s palaces, yo u will see grandparents looking contentedly at their grandchildren who are playing happily. This is one aspect of the help young children get from their grandparents. They can also learn something from their grandparents’ experiences. Grandparents are very influential in the development of young people because they tend to encourage young people more often than parents do. There is one problem, however. Some children are spoiled by their grandparents, and as a result, they become self-centered and sometimes impolite. In addition to looking after their grandchildren, grandparents also do cooking and share house chores with other members in the family. In short, grandparents in China try to help the younger generation as much as possible. 2) My grandfather was a knowledgeable person. He joined the army before the liberation. Injured in a battle, he left the army. He liked to read books, play erhu (Chinese violin) and chess in his spare time. I learned a lot from him. Under his influence, I developed the habit of reading everyday. My grandfather liked to make notes when he was reading, so I developed the same habit, which I have found very useful. He was also a genius at loving.He gave me a lot of love and taught me how to love other people. I will remember him forever.5. What Is Your Goal in Life?STEP TWO--I would like to be a successful genetic engineer;--I would like to win the Nobel Prize;--I would like to invent a computer program that would become as famous as Windows;--I would like to serve my home town;--I would like to find true love and have a child;--I would like to save enough money to travel around the world.6. What Is Youth?It is not a biological but philosophical question. Psychologically speaking, people do not get old just because their age increases. People are old only when they lose heart and can not sense the beauty of life and the richness of the world around them. They are pessimistic and low in spirits. They can not find any meaning in life. But on the other hand, some people can stay young even when they are aged. They are always optimistic and full of love in their hearts. They are still curious about new things around them and keep learning all their lives. They can easily find interesting things and spend time on them. They are a group of people who love life, love the world and feel young all their lives.Part Four WRITING AND TRANSLATION1. Translation Practice岁月可以在皮肤上留下皱纹,但是热情的丧失却会在灵魂里留下痕迹。

Unit 10The Idiocy of Urban LifeHenry Fairlie1 Between about 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. the life of the city is civil. Occasionally the lonefootsteps of someone walking to or from work echo along the sidewalk. All work that has to be done at those hours is useful -in bakeries, for example. Even the newspaper presses stop turning forests into lies. Now and then a car comes out of the silence and cruises easily through the blinking traffic lights. The natural inhabitants of the city come out from damp basements and cellars. With their pink ears and paws, sleek, well-groomed, their whiskers combed, rats are true city dwellers. Urban life, during the hours when they reign, is urbane.2 These rats are social creatures, as you can tell if you look out on the city streetduring an insomniac night. But after 6 a.m., the two-legged, daytime creatures of the city begin to stir; and it is they, not the rats, who bring the rat race. You might think that human beings congregate in large cities because they are gregarious. The opposite is true. Urban life today is aggressively individualistic and atomized. Cities are not social places.3 The lunacy of modern city life lies first in the fact that most city dwellers try tolive outside the city boundaries. So the two-legged creatures have created suburbs, exurbs, and finally rururbs (rubs to some). Disdaining rural life, they try to create simulations of it. No effort is spared to let city dwellers imagine they are living anywhere but in a city: patches of grass in the more modest suburbs, broader spreads in the richer ones further out; prim new trees planted along the streets; at the foot of the larger backyards, a pretense to bosky woodlands.4 The professional people buy second homes in the country as soon as they canafford them, and as early as possible on Friday head out of the city they have created.The New York intellectuals and artists quaintly say they are “going to the country”for the weekend or the summer, but in fact they have created a little Manhattan-by-the-Sea around the Hamptons, spreading over the Long Island6 potato fields whose earlier solitude was presumably the reason why they first went there. City dwellers take the city with them to the country, for they will not live without its pamperings. The main streets of America’s small towns, which used to have hardware and dry goods stores, are now strips of boutiques. Old-fashionedbarbers become unisex hairdressing salons. The brown rats stay in the cities because of the filth the humans leave during the day. The rats clean it up at night. Soon the countryside will be just as nourishing to them, as the city dwellers take their filth with them.5 Work still gives meaning to rural life, the family, and churches. But in the citytoday work and home, family and church, are separated. What the office workers do for a living is not part of their home life. At the same time they maintain the pointless frenzy of their work hours in their hours off. They rush from the office to jog, to the gym or the YMCA pool, to work at their play with the same joylessness.6 Even though the offices of today’s businesses in the city are themselves movingout to the suburbs, this does not necessarily bring the workers back closer to their workplace. It merely means that to the rush-hour traffic into the city there is now added a rush-hour traffic out to the suburbs in the morning, and back around and across the city in the evening. As the farmer walks down to his farm in the morning, the city dweller is dressing for the first idiocy of his day, which he not only accepts but even seeks -the journey to work.7 In the modern office building in the city there are windows that don’t open. Thisis perhaps the most symbolic lunacy of all. Outdoors is something you can look at through glass but not to touch or hear. These windows are a scandal because they endanger the lives of office workers in case of fire. But no less grievous, even on the fairest spring or fall day the workers cannot put their heads outside. Thus it is not surprising that the urban worker has no knowledge of the seasons. He is aware simply that in some months there is air conditioning, and in others through the same vents come fetid central heating. Even outside at home in their suburbs the city dwellers may know that sometimes it’s hot, and sometimes it’s cold, but no true sense of the rhythms of the seasons is to be had from a lawn in the backyard and a few spindly trees struggling to survive.8 The city dweller reels from unreality to unreality through each day, alwaystrying to recover the rural life that has been surrendered for the city lights. No city dweller, even in the suburbs, knows the wonder of a pitch-dark country lane at night.Nor does he naturally get any exercise from his work.9 Every European points out that Americans are the most round-shoulderedpeople in the world. Few of them carry themselves with an upright stance, althougha correct stance is the first precondition of letting your lungs breathe naturally anddeeply. Electric typewriters cut down the amount of physical exertion needed to hit the keys; the buttons of a word processor need even less effort, as you can tell from the posture of those who use them. They rush out to jog or otherwise Fonda-ize their leisure to try to repair the damage done during the day.10 Everything in urban life is an effort either to simulate rural life or to compensatefor its loss by artificial means. It is from this day-to-day existence of unreality, pretence, and idiocy that the city people, slumping along their streets even when scurrying, never looking up at their buildings, far less the sky, have the insolence to disdain and mock the useful and rewarding life of the country people who support them. Now go out and carry home a Douglas fir, call it a Christmas tree, and enjoy 12 days of con tact with nature. Of course city dwellers don’t know it once had roots.城市生活之蠢行亨利·费尔利1 每天凌晨3点到6点,城市生活文明有礼。

Different Types of Structure
1 Nuclear family 2 One-parent family 3 Extended families 4 Joint families
1 Nuclear family
• It contains husband, wife and dependent children who eventually grow up and leave their parents, to start a nuclear group of their own. Nuclear families are mostly found in industrial cities.
Exercise
1 Does your relationship with your parents or family resemble any of these? Make a list of the similarities and differences. 2 What have you learned from the video? What do you think of marriage and family life?
2 One-parent family
• It consists of a lone parent, with his or her nevermarried dependent children, provided these children have no children of their own. Married lone mothers whose husbands are not defined as resident in the household are not classified as lone parents because evidence suggests the majority are separated from their husbands either because he usually works away from home or for some other reason that does not imply the breakdown of the marriage. Couples who are in fact cohabiting are counted as married.
Ask & Answer
1 What was the traditional British family like? 2 What is the major cause of the changes of family? 3 What are the new changes in modern women’s life? 4 What effects have the changes brought to British people's life? 5 What does marriage mean to the newly married couple?
Lyrics to A Father And A Son
• When I was your age I was just like you, And just look at me now; I'm sure you do. But your grandfather was just as bad And you should have heard him trash his dad. Life's no picnic, that's a given: My mom's mom died when my mom was seven; My mom's father was a tragic guy, But he was so distant and nobody knows why. Now, your mother's family, you know them: Each and every one a gem, Each and every one a gem.
George Eliot (cont.2)
• She used a male pen name, she said, to ensure her works would be taken seriously. Female authors were published under their own names during Eliot's life, but she wanted to escape the stereotype of women only writing lighthearted romances. An additional factor in her use of a pen name may have been a desire to shield her private life from public scrutiny and to prevent scandals attending her relationship with the married George Henry Lewes, with whom she lived for over 20 years.
4 Joint families
• It contains two or more married couples and their children living under the same roof. This type of family maximizes the labor available where land is not scarce. They are common only in rural areas in a limited number of countries. (e.g. India)
Lyrics to A Father And A Son (cont.1)
• When I was your age I was a mess; On a bad day I still am, I guess. I think I know what you're going through; Everything changes but nothing is new. And I know that I'm miserable; can't you see? I just want you to be just like me. Boys grow up to be grown men And then men change back into boys again. You're starting up and I'm winding down; Ain't it big enough for us both in this town? Say it's big enough for us both in this town.
George Eliot
George Eliot (cont.1)
• Mary Anne (alters (22 November 1819 – 22 December 1880), known by her pen name George Eliot, was an English novelist, journalist, and translator and one of the leading writers of the Victorian era. She is the author of seven novels, including Adam Bede 《亚当· 比德》 (1859), The Mill on the Floss 《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》 (1860), Silas Marner 《织工马南传》 (1861), Middlemarch 《米德尔马契》 (1871–72), and Daniel Deronda 《丹尼尔· 德龙达》 (1876), most of them set in provincial England and known for their realism and psychological insight.
3 Extended families
• In extended families, two or more generationsparents, grandparents and children may live together under one single roof, sometimes with more distant relatives. This type of family provides a support network that allows orphaned children, infirm elderly people and other vulnerable individuals to be easily accommodated. It is most common in rural areas where a large family is vital as a source of labor for agriculture production.
Lyrics to A Father And A Son (cont.2)
• We fought each other day and night: I was always wrong; he was always right. But he had the power and he needed to win; His life half over, mine about to begin. I'm not sure about that Oedipal stuff, But when we were together it was always rough. Hate is a strong word; I want to back-track; The bigger the front, then the bigger the back; The bigger the front, then the bigger the back.
