To my surprise, when I arrived at the address, I found it was a frail old lay who was awaiting me. After she got into the cab, I engaged her in conversation.I learnt that she was going to the hospice. Her doctor said she didn’t have very long. The old lady told me to drive through the downtown area. She pointed at some old buildings, telling me those were the places where she used to work or live. When the cab finally pulled up in front of the hospice, I didn’t accept her fare. In the rest of the day, I was lost in thought. Though I had to make a living, I lived not for the sole purpose of surviving. When circumstances looked gloomy, the small favour I had done could be a candle light. However faint the light was, it managed to warm up a soul and ennobled me as well. I did take pride in that small favour.Unit TwoLoveEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▆ Working with Words and ExpressionsIn the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

No one will deny that some people make friends simply for mutual utility. Once the ground for such friendship disappears, the friendship also breaks up. However, a lot more people long for “soul pals”— those who possess virtues and with whom we can go through trials and tribulations together. Such friendships keep us away from greed and violence and inspire us to have the courage of our convictions. Such is what we call “true friendship”.

Translate the following paragraph into English, using the words and expressions in the box below.▇Answers for reference:A gold medal is a tribute to the athletic talent, determination and courage of an Olympic champion. Then how do the athletes make themselves fortunate enough to be so highly honored The champions who have mounted the winners’ stand can offer an answer based on their own experiences. First, in the course of training, they visualize themselves as champions. Once their dreams of becoming champions take shape, they will cling to them courageously. What’s more, top performers are driven to bring out their best. They discipline themselves and s queeze in every possible minute to practice every day. Despite their relentless efforts, they may sometimes fail to win or narrowly miss a gold medal, yet they believe in themselves and never lose heart. They are ready to take on the most psychologically and technically challenging tasks or competitions. In reality, all champions have experienced lots of hardships on their way to the vital break of their lifetime. So we won’t and can’t say that a champion is lucky. After all, luck only strikes those prepared to capitalize on it.。

(Para. 8)Not getting in touch with what the best humanminds have thought, you are going to be uncivilized humansor a newtype of savages whocan only operate machines by pushing buttons.?4) Our colleges inevitably graduate a number of such life forms, but itcannot be said that they went to college; rather, the college went throughA nu mber of our college graduates have in deed turned out to be “new species of mechanized savage ” . This only means that they have not received a college education though they have spent some time there, for they have failed to make con tact with the best huma n minds in history.?5) If you are too much in a hurry, or too arroga ntly proud of your ownlimitations, to accept as a gift to your humanity somepieces of the mindsof Sophocles, of Aristotle, of Chaucer —and right dow n the scale and down the ages to Yeats, Einstein, . White, and Ogden Nash —then you may be protected by the laws gover ning man slaughter, and you may be a vot ing entity, but you are neither a developed humanbeing nor a useful citizen of a democracy. (Para. 10)Eve n if you are too busy or feel complace nt and, therefore, refuse to come into con tact with the best huma n minds withi n history, you can still be protected by law and enjoy the right to democratic voting.

Write down the main idea of each part.Part Paragraph(s) Main IdeaOne 1–2 Love is hard to define because it can only be felt but not described.Two 3–7 The author discusses love of different depths from her own experiences.Three 8–12 The two generations handle love and relationships differently. The younger generation tends to be more hasty and selfish in building relationships.Four 13–14 The author advises young people to learn the essence of love and find ways to develop relationships into lifelong bonds.Task Two Reading Between the LinesRead the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicised parts.preciated that we even find 1. Given the busy nature of our lives, it’s to be ap p reciatedthe time to indulge in matters of the heart. (Para. 3)Love is still indispensable to us, even though we are so busy pursuing material things for our everyday life. For this we should feel grateful.2. The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, the calmness, the shy glance —these are all so frequently remindful of a bygone era. (Para. 8)These often remind us of those days when people of our parents’ generation were courting. It was an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. But such an era is gone for ever, for young people today tend to behave differently.(Para.12)3. There is more of acquiring and less of sharing. The younger generation is more selfish: they care too much about what they can get instead of what they can share.4. There’s much more to being someone’s lover than gifting them red roses and fifty-cent cards. (Para. 13)People in a relationship need to do much more than just sending gifts to their lovers. More importantly, they should devote themselves, heart and soul, to each other.5. And we should not have become so tired by our frivolous acts that when it . (Para. 14)comes we aren’t able to receive it with open armsAfter repeatedly experiencing hasty, casual and insensible relationships, we have become emotionally tired and confused, so when true love comes, we are unable to respond to it with due enthusiasm, passion and devotion.

Friendship based on goodness is perfect and totally different from friendship based on utility or pleasure.Three 6 According to Cicero, true friendship is only possible between good men. In such friendships and relationships, those who possess any superiority must regard themselves as equals of those who are less fortunate.Four 7 Virtuous friends are bound by moral excellence, which involves a high level of development and expression of the altruistic emotions of sympathy, concern and care.Task Two Reading Between the LinesRead the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the authors intend to say by the italicised parts.1. In one setting, we may describe someone as a friend; in another, the label may seem less appropriate. (Para. 1)Since society lacks socially accepted criteria for what friendship is, a person may be described as a ―friend‖ in one context but may not be suitably called so in another.2. Friendship between the young is thought to be grounded on pleasure, because the lives of the young are regulated by their feelings, and their chief interests are in their own pleasure and the opportunity of the moment. (Para. 4)It is believed that young people tend to regard pleasure as an essential element of friendship and thus base their friendship on pleasure.3. Such friendships are rare because men of this kind are few and they need time and intimacy; for as the saying goes, true friends must go through trials and tribulations together. (Para. 5)It is not easy to establish true friendships because there is only a small number of such good men in the world and it takes time and effort to develop such friendships. That is why true friendships are rare.4. To perceive a friend, therefore, is in a manner to perceive oneself; and to know a friend is in a manner to know oneself. Each can be said to provide a mirror in which the other may see himself. (Para. 7)When two people are true friends, each is like a mirror to the other, who can see what kind of a person he himself has proved to be and whether he has moral excellence or not.5. Friendship of this kind necessarily involves conversations about well-being and of what might be involved in living the good life. (Para.7)We can find all the good qualities in virtuous friends and it is those qualities that make permanent friendship possible.

The former means that the graduate has completed the training of professional skills in pharmacy while the latter, besides professional training, also involves education in the ideas mankind has generated within its history.3) How did the author communicate the significance of studying the literal arts in college to the pharmacy student?He explained to the student that the time of a person’s life could be divided into three parts: one is for sleep, the second is for work which involves professional skills, and the third part is for life after work in which education in liberal arts —philosophy, arts, music, literature, history, etc. — plays a vital part.4) What is the business of college education according to the author? The business of college education is not merely to train students, but to civilize them with the best human thoughts in history. In other words the author draws a clear distinction between training and education. The former provides one with skills for a job or career while the latter enables one to become a civilized person by coming into contact with the best minds in history.5) How can a person become civilized according to the text?A person has to enter the past and familiarize himself/herself with both the technical and spiritual resources created by mankind, so that he/she could become civilized and play his/her role in civilization.6) What does the author think of the mission undertaken by the faculties of a university? How can they accomplish this mission?The faculties of liberal arts colleges as well as of specialized schools are entrusted with the mission to put students in close contact with the best human minds in history. They should turn themselves into some sort of storehouse of human experience and try their best to communicate that experience to their students, so that their students will become civilized humans instead of savages who only know how to operate machines or push buttons.2 Text A can be divided into three parts with the paragraph number(s) of each part provided as follows. Write down the main idea of each part. Part Paragraph(s) Main IdeaOne 1–7 In response to the challenge posed by a particular student who merely intends to pursue skills at college and takes no interest in literature, the author draws a distinction between professional training and college education. The former can only provide students with professional skills while the latter enables students to become civilized humans. Hence the importance of liberal arts education at college.Two 8–10 College education must enable students to come into contact with the best minds in history, so that they can become civilized and useful human beings instead of new species of savages who only know how to operate machines or push buttons. Three 11 College education must target at enabling students to become both specialists and civilized humans. All college teachers must make themselves some sort of storehouse of human experience and try their best to communicate that experience to their students.Task Two Reading Between the LinesRead the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicised parts.1) Will there be a book in the house? Will there be a painting a reasonably sensitive man can look at without shuddering? (Para. 5)Do you have a cultivated mind to know what books your family should read? And do you know what kind of paintings you should put up on the wall that would not offend a cultured eye?2) “I hope you make a lot of it,” I told him, “because you’re going to be badly stuck for something to do when you’re not signing checks.” (Para. 7)I hope you will make a lot of money, but I’m sure you’ll be at a loss what to do when you are not signing checks. In other words, you can have a lot of money, but you may not live a meaningful and fulfilling life.3) You are on the way to being new species of mechanized savage, the Pushbutton Neanderthal. (Para. 8)Not getting in touch with what the best human minds have thought, you are going to be uncivilized humans or a new type of savages who can only operate machines by pushing buttons.4) Our colleges inevitably graduate a number of such life forms, but it cannot be said that they went to college; rather, the college went through them — without making contact. (Para. 8)A number of our college graduates have indeed turned out to be “new species of mechanized savage”. This only means that they have not received a college education though they have spent some time there, for they have failed to make contact with the best human minds in history.5) If you are too much in a hurry, or too arrogantly proud of your own limitations, to accept as a gift to your humanity some pieces of the minds of Sophocles, of Aristotle, of Chaucer — and right down the scale and down the ages to Yeats, Einstein, . White, and Ogden Nash —then you may be protected by the laws governing manslaughter, and you may be a voting entity, but you are neither a developed human being nor a useful citizen of a democracy. (Para. 10)Even if you are too busy or feel complacent and, therefore, refuse to come into contact with the best human minds within history, you can still be protected by law and enjoy the right to democratic voting. But you can never be considered as an educated, civilized person; nor can you be accepted by society as a useful citizen in a democratic nation.Checking Your VocabularyWord Detective1 Put down the right word from Text B in the space provided according to the given definition.

(means or right of using, reaching, or obtaining: Para. 8)6) Don’t worry about your son’s shyness; it’s just a phase he’s going through.(a stage of development: Para. 10)Checking Your Comprehension1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text B.1) On what should the role of education be based in the 21st century? The role of education in the 21st century should be based on the hope for a world that is a better place to live in.2) What are some of the problems in the 21st century that humankind should overcome in order to make the world a better place to live in?We have to overcome the tensions between the global and the local, between tradition and modernity, between long-term and short-term considerations, between the need for competition and the concern for equality of opportunity and between the spiritual and the material so as to make the world a better place to live in.3) In what way can we learn to live together?We can learn to live together by understanding others and their history, traditions and spiritual values, implementing common projects and managing the inevitable conflicts in an intelligent and peaceful way.4) Is the idea of being a multi-subject specialist feasible? Why or why not?No. Because there are so many different types of knowledge; any attempt to know everything would be an illusion.5) What’s the fundamental function of general education?General education provides the passport to lifelong education.

To develop team skills, students should be provided with opportunities to involve themselves in work experience while they are still in education.8) What is the aim of “learning to be”? How can the aim be achieved? The aim of “learning to be” is the compl ete fulfillment of man. All people should receive an education that would equip them to develop an independent, critical way of thinking and exercising judgment.9) As far as education is concerned, what society should we build in the 21st century?We should build a learning society based on the acquisition, renewal and use of knowledge.2 Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say in the following sentences.1) This is precisely the case where education policies are concerned. (Para. 2)The solution to any serious problem involves much consideration, cooperation and negotiation. It is exactly the same with educational policies, which can only be worked out through lots of discussions and negotiations.2) Since knowledge is of multiple nature, any attempt to know everything becomes more and more pointless. (Para. 5)There are so many different kinds of knowledge that it is increasingly meaningless and impossible to train students into specialists in all fields.3) The future of industrial economies hinges on their ability to turn advances in knowledge into innovations that will generate new businesses and new jobs. (Para. 6)The future of industrial economies depends critically on their ability to turn the development in knowledge into creative ideas, new methods or inventions. With creativity, new businesses and new jobs will be created.4) None of the talents which are hidden like buried treasure in every person must be left untapped. (Para. 7)The education one receives, which begins at birth and continues all through one’s life, should help develop and put into full play one’s potentials and talents.Enhance Your Language AwarenessWords in ActionWorking with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

Write an essay entitled “AIDS acrossthe Earth”. You can refer to the following outline for your writing. Sample essay for Task 1:AIDS Acrossthe EarthAIDS has killed and is threatening to kill millions all across the earth. Several million infections are reported by WHO each year. The virus does not care whether you are black or white, male or female, young or old. It will attack you as long as you are a human. Today, AIDS has become the leading killer of young adultsand is turning the children whose parents suffer the disease into orphans. It is no exaggeration to say that welive under the shadow of AIDS.There are several possible causes for such a situation: unsafe sexual intercourse; sharing or reusing contaminated needles; transfusion of contaminated blood or blood products; an infected person’s pregnancy, giving birth and breastfeeding, etc. Unfortunately, our ignorance, prejudice and silence have carried the situation to a desperate extreme. Patients are isolated or treated as outcasts by their families and their communities. AIDS victims feel ashamed to be identified as such and try hard to hide their disease. For this reason, they cannot get immediate medical treatment. Our harmful attitudes towards the disease and its victims have actually placed more people at risk.In our fight against this deadly disease, we should educate people on how to avoid being infected with the disease and how to lead a healthy and secure life and, more importantly, how to treat AIDS patients properly. Only in this way can we really bring AIDS under control. (236 words)2. The following is an excerpt from an article in The Guardian.

Why have so many young people ended their lives?Three factors are thought to account for the high suicide rate: increasing stress, loneliness and a lack of medical support for depression. The most pressing one, I think, is stress. Take my college life for example. From the first day I entered the university, I have been living under pressure. I used to worry that I could notquite fit into campus life; I also feared that I might not catch up with my classmates in mystudies or could notlive up to my parents’ expectations. Now I am deeply concerned about whetherI can find a desirable job after graduation. Endless pressures give rise to stress. Loneliness is another problem. Many young people find they just feel helpless when they are suffering intolerable sadness or frustration.Suicide is a great tragedy, especially for the young. If we can find ways to relieve them of their stress and offer timely help, we may save many young lives.(206 words)Unit SixHappinessEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▆Working with Words and Expressions3.In the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

The students acquire professional skills in order to have the minimum qualifications to become specialists, such as pharmacists, engineers, technicians and lawyers. It might be reasonable to believe that those skills suffice to enable them to get a good job. Nevertheless, does one feel content with merely a good job? We know that most young people who enroll in universities long for not only professional training, but also quality education;namely, they want to learn what the past learnt for them and get in touch with the minds and experience of the master thinkers in order to become civilized people. Those who are knowledgeable only intheir peculiar fields may be labeled (as) “mechanized savages”, because of their incompetence in understanding the thinking and works of other fields, for example, philosophy, literature and thearts. Thus, the university is most likely to help young people realize two dreams after they graduate:having a good job where their occupational training will be effective, and living a meaningful life for which diversity of knowledge isrequired.Theme-Related WritingDo either one of the following two tasks after class.1.Write an essay entitled “The Significance of Lifelong Education.” The following outline may be ofsome help:1)In the past, a college education was enough to ensure a well-paid, much-respected job and a sense ofachievement.2)Today,with the increasing competition in our “knowledge society”, it is a must to renew one’sknowledge and upgrade one’s skills. What’s more, a general college education serves only as apassport to lifetime education.3)The concept of lifelong education finds expression in the slogan “Live and Learn.”news report carried in an English2.“Should FamilySchooling Exist?” This question is raised in anewspaper in China. Read the report below and write a short essay to express your own views on theissue.▆ Sample essay for task 1:The Significance of Lifelong EducationDecades ago, due to the low standard of living in China, only a small percentage of the nation’spopulation could receive college education. Once given the opportunity, one would surely secure a well-paidand much-respected job, which he or she would probably do for a lifetime. Therefore, to secure a collegedegree used to be the ultimate goal of a person’s education.Today, however, we are living in what is called a “knowledge society,”where creative ideas andinnovations are generated at a fantastic speed. One must constantly renew one’s knowledge and upgrade one’sskills so as to meet the needs of the changing world. Moreover, at the stage of general education, it is pointlessfor a person to attempt to know everything. Whenone is required to settle down to be a specialist in a specificfield, one has to make an in-depth study of the subject one is supposed to know. In this sense, generaleducation can provide students with only a passport to lifelong education. As Robert Maynard Hutchins oncesaid, the object of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives.In my opinion, life in modern society is not only a process of “learning to live”but also a process ofLive and Learn” can best reflect the concept of lifelong education. (226 words)“living to learn”. The slogan “▆ Sample essay for task 2:Should Family Schooling Exist?Meng Mu Tang, a private school in Shanghai, is modeledafter the educational system of ancient Chinesehome schools, which favored rote memorization and recitation of classic works. But the local educationauthorities in Shanghai have declared it illegal according to a report in 21st Century. Should family schoolingexist? What role should it play?In my opinion, family schooling should be permitted to play a positive role in the current educationalsystem in China. Every family should be free to choose the form of education that best suits their children’s interests and natural gifts. Although the existing educationsystem in China has remarkably improved, it doestalents and uniquenot fit each child perfectly. Since family schooling provides a means to develop a person’sinterest, Meng Mu Tang, as a private schoolgeared to a specific group of children, should not be banned inhaste. In view of the current dynamic, quality-minded educational reforms in China, we should permit familyschooling to enrich and diversify our educational system.On the other hand, home schooling should adapt itself to the modern world. To prepare children for thefuture, it should equip them with knowledge and innovative power so that they can cope with the developmentof the modernworld. While tapping children’s innate talents on an individual basis, family schooling shouldnever neglect their all-round development. Meng Mu Tang may not be a perfect private school, but we shouldlet it live and have a try so that family schooling mayeventually become an indispensable component of ourformal education.

So education is import ant in preventing the spread of HIV.2) There are TWO processes to prevent new HIV infections: one is to give people information about HIV and the other is to teach people how to put this information to use and act on it practically.3) HIV-positive people need to get medical services and drug supplies . And they also need to find appropriate emotional and practical support and help.4) Many people fear those who are HIV-positive. Some extreme cases can be found in India , where AIDS patients were burned to death .Read and ExploreTask One Discovering the Main Ideas1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text A.1) Why does the author describe Charles Winget and his wife in the first paragraph?Because she intends to show that pe ople’s bodies operate at different speeds.2) How would behavioral scientists explain the differences between Charles Winget and his wife?Behavioral scientists would say that such differences were caused by personal eccentricities or early conditioning.3) What are ―circadian rhythms‖ according to Franz Halberg?According to Franz Halberg, circadian rhythms are the regular daily patterns of our body. That is, our systems work on an approximately 25-hour cycle. Sometimes our body speeds up, and sometimes it slows down. It achieves peak efficiency for onlya limited time each day.4) How does the study of chronobiology benefit people in general? Chronobiology tells people how to coordinate their activities with their biological capacities so that they can achieve their best with the least effort.5) What approach has been developed to help a person recognize his body’s patterns?Winget and his associates have developed a simple approach. It is to record 6 readings of a person’s temperature all throughout the day and put the readings on graph paper. The rising or falling patterns of the temperature can be recognized as his body’s patterns.6) How should we arrange our mental and physical work according to the author?Physical work can be best done when our rhythms are at their peak. In most people, this peak lasts about four hours. For mental activities, the timetable is more complicated. Precision tasks such as mathematical work are best tackled when your temperature is on the rise. For most people, this is at 8 or 9 a.m. By contrast,reading and reflection are better done between 2 and 4 p.m., which is the time when body temperature usually begins to fall.7) What tips does chronobiology offer for effective dieting?Eating breakfast rather than dinner helps to lose weight, because calories burn faster in the morning than in the evening.8) What tips for sleep problems are offered in the text?Three tips are offered. The first is that we should go to bed at the same time every night and get up at the same time every morning, even on weekends. The second is that the best way to recover fr om a bad night’s sleep is simply to resume your normal cycle. And the third tip is that we should beware of sleepin g pills, as most sleeping pills won’t work for periods longer than two weeks and there is real danger of drug accumulation in the blood.2 Text A can be divided into four parts with the paragraph number(s) of each part provided as follows. Write down the main idea of each part.Part Paragraph(s) Main IdeaOne 1–4 Our bodies operate with the complexity of clocks. Franz Halberg, a physician-biologist, discovered that there is a 25-hour cycle in the body with the body systems running with regular patterns. Halberg called these regular patterns ―circadian rhythms.‖Two 5–6 Circadian principles have already been used to schedule astronauts’ work and it is expected that the work in chronobiology will be applied to increasing our efficiency in daily activities.Three 7–17 Taking the given approach to figure out our body’s patterns, we can then take advantage of chronobiology techniques to improve our healthand productivity in such aspects of life as our daily work, dieting, taking medicine and sleeping.Four 18 It is important to keep regularity in all aspects of our life and learn to act in synchronization with our body’s natural rhythms.Task Two Reading Between the LinesRead the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicised parts.1. It is barely 5 a.m., but Winget is raring to go. Meanwhile, his wife pulls up the covers and buries her face under the pillow. (Para. 1)Early in the morning Winget wakes up and is eager to begin the day’s work while his wife still needs more sleep. That is to say, people’s body clocks run at different speeds, thus leading to different waking times.2. Halberg’s expla nation: instead of performing at a steady, unchanging rate, our systems function on an approximately 25-hour cycle. (Para. 4)Many people believe that our systems work at the same rate all throughout the day, but it is not true.3. Of course, individual variations make all the difference. (Para. 11) Different people may show different patterns of temperature change, and such differences reflect differences in their circadian rhythms.4. ―All the subjects lost weight eating breakfast,‖ states Sothern. ―Those who ate dinner either maintained or gained weight.‖ (Para. 14)Sothern, a chronobiologist who personally did the research and whose words are to be taken seriously, emphasizes the point that for effective dieting, it’s a good choice to eat breakfastrather than dinner.5. The best way to recover from a bad night’s sleep is simply to resume your normal cycle. (Para. 17)The best way to recover from a bad night’s sleep is not to have more sleep in order to make up for the lost sleep, but to go on with your normal sleep-wake cycle, i.e. to go to bed at the same time every night and get up at the same time every morning, even on weekends.Checking Your VocabularyWord Detective1 Put down the right word from Text B in the space provided according to the given definition. The first letter of each word is already given.Example:e lection: the choosing by vote of a representative to take an official position1) i solate: keep apart; separate from others2) i ssue: produce (esp. sth. printed and / or official)3) c ontract: get or begin to have (sth. bad, esp. an illness)4) i gnorance: lack of knowledge, information, or consciousness5) b roken: made discouraged or weak by misfortune, ill-health, etc.6) s egment: any of the parts into which sth. can be cut or divided7) c ommunity: the people living together and/or united by common background, nationality, etc.8) p rejudice: (an) unfair and unreasonable opinion or feeling, esp. when formed without enough thought or knowledge2 Fill in each blank with a word or phrase from Text B.

AIDS is the third leading killer of young adult Americans today. Worldwide, 40 million, 60 million, or a hundred million infections will be counted in the coming few years.3) Why does Fisher say that AIDS virus is not a political creature?Because it has nothing to do with politics. It does not care whether you are a Democrat or Republican; it attacks people regardless of race, sex or age; it does not ask whether you are gay or straight.4) Why has the AIDS virus spread so widely?Because we have helped it spread with our ignorance, prejudice and silence.5) Why shouldn’t AIDS patients be treated cruelly?Because they are human. Each of them is a person. They are not evil and have not earned cruelty. They do not deserve meanness. They don’t be nefit frombeing isolated or treated as outcasts. They long for our pity and they are worthy of our compassion and support.6) How have Fisher’s family members reacted to her being infected with HIV? Instead of practicing prejudice against her, they have rendered strong support to her. Her parents and her brother have shown concern for her consistently. They have always encouraged her and have helped her pull through the hardest moments in her struggle against the disease.7) What does Mary Fisher call on her listeners to do?She calls on the whole nation to be aware of AIDS. She calls on the HIV positive to have the courage to fight it out. She calls on the healthy people to set aside prejudice and show compassion and support for AIDS patients.2 Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicised parts.1) I have come tonight to bring our silence to an end. (Para.1)To act on the proposal I made, I have to break the silence myself tonight. It is time to speak out the truth about the deadly disease — AIDS.2) Tonight, I represent an AIDS community whose members came reluctantly from every segment of American society. (Para.5)AIDS has become so widespread that those who have been infected come from every part of society.3) Are you human? And this is the right question: Are you human? (Para. 7) This question reveals the essence of the AIDS issue: Since AIDS poses a threat to humankind, every one of us, irrespective of race, age or sex, may contract HIV and become a victim of AIDS for the simplest reason that we are all human.4) Because people with HIV have not entered some alien state of being. (Para. 7)Because people with HIV have not turned into some strange kind of creature that is totally different from us. They are just as human as anyone else. We have no reason to practice prejudice against them.5) Then their children, and yours, may not need to whisper it at all. (Para. 15) Then the future generations will face the problem in an honest and frank manner. Only in this way can they dealwith the disease effectively and make the world safe and free from this deadly disease.Optional Classroom ActivitiesThe two tables below illustrate respectively the leading causes of death worldwide in 2002 (Table 1) and the leading causes of death among 15 to 59-year-olds worldwide (Table 2) in the same year. Work in small groups and study the tables carefully, and then do the following two tasks:1) Compare the two tables and find out in Table 2a. What new causes of death are added?New causes of death added in Table 2 are: suicide, violence and liver cancer.b. What causes move up in ranking?Causes that move up in ranking in T able 2 are: HIV / AIDS, road accidents and tuberculosis.Suggestions for this activity:Since students will have no difficulty in finding out the answers to the questions in Task 1, this activity should focus on Task 2. In fact, no professional knowledge is required for a fruitful discussion. Students are encouraged to share their existing knowledge and pool their ideas. If time permits, ask some students to give presentations to the whole class.2) Discuss what might have caused the above differences.Table 2 shows an increase in the ranking of deaths due to HIV / AIDS, tuberculosis, road accidents, suicide, violence and liver cancer among people in the 15–59 age bracket, compared to their rankings in all age groups.Teenagers (13–19 year olds) and young people tend to be more passionate, emotional and adventurous. So they may love taking risks: breaking traffic laws, taking drugs, being loose withsexual relationships. And they may easily feel frustrated with failures in their study or relationships.Hence more deaths resulting from road accidents, violence, HIV / AIDS, and suicide.People in their thirties and forties are generally under great pressure from their work and family burdens. The pressure may continue to be a threat to their health before they reach 60.Enhance Your Language AwarenessWords in ActionWorking with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

Before you know it, your fingers will be flying and your online learning adventure will have begun.Read and ExploreTask One Discovering the Main Ideas1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text A.1) What disaster did the author encounter earlier in his careerHe encountered a student who challenged the curriculum which required a pharmacy student to study literature.2) What are the differences between the certificate that reads Qualified Pill-Grinding Technician and the one that reads Bachelor of ScienceThe former means that the graduate has completed the training of professional skills in pharmacy while the latter, besides professional training, also involves education in the ideas mankind has generated within its history.3) How did the author communicate the significance of studying the literal arts in college to the pharmacy student He explained to the student that the time of a person’s life could be divided into three parts: one is for sleep, the second is for work which involves professional skills, and the third part is for life after work in which education in liberal arts — philosophy, arts, music, literature, history, etc. — plays a vital part.4) What is the business of college education according to the authorThe business of college education is not merely to train students, but to civilize them with the best human thoughts in history. In other words the author draws a clear distinction between training and education. The former provides one with skills for a job or career while the latter enables one to become a civilized person by coming into contact with the best minds in history.5) How can a person become civilized according to the textA person has to enter the past and familiarize himself/herself with both the technical and spiritual resources created by mankind, so that he/she could become civilized and play his/her role in civilization.6) What does the author think of the mission undertaken by the faculties of a university How can they accomplish this mission The faculties of liberal arts colleges as well as of specialized schools are entrusted with the mission to put students in close contact with the best human minds in history. They should turn themselves into some sort of storehouse of human experience and try their best to communicate that experience to their students, so that their students will become civilized humans instead of savages who only know how to operate machines orpush buttons.2 Text A can be divided into three parts with the paragraph number(s) of each part provided as follows. Write down the main idea of each part.Part Paragraph(s) Main IdeaOne 1–7 In response to the challenge posed by a particular student who merely intends to pursue skills at college and takes no interest in literature, the author draws a distinction between professional training and college education. The former can only provide students with professional skills while the latter enables students to become civilized humans. Hence the importance of liberal arts education at college.Two 8–10 College education must enable students to come into contact with the best minds in history, so that they can become civilized and useful human beings instead of new species of savages who only know how to operate machines or push buttons. Three 11 College education must target at enabling students to become both specialists and civilized humans. All college teachers must make themselves some sort of storehouse of human experience and try their best to communicate that experience to their students.Task Two Reading Between the LinesRead the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicised parts.1) Will there be a book in the house Will there be a paintinga reasonably sensitive man can look at without shuddering (Para.5)Do you have a cultivated mind to know what books your family should read And do you know what kind of paintings you should put up on the wall that would not offend a cultured eye2) “I hope you make a lot of it,” I told him, “because y ou’re going to be badly stuck for something to do when you’re not signing checks.” (Para. 7)I hope you will make a lot of money, but I’m sure you’ll be at a loss what to do when you are not signing checks. In other words, you can have a lot of money, but you may not live a meaningful and fulfilling life.3) You are on the way to being new species of mechanized savage, the Pushbutton Neanderthal. (Para. 8)Not getting in touch with what the best human minds have thought, you are going to be uncivilized humans or a new type of savages who can only operate machines by pushing buttons.4) Our colleges inevitably graduate a number of such life forms, but it cannot be said that they went to college; rather, the college went through them — without making contact. (Para. 8)A number of our college graduates have indeed turned out to be “new species of mechanized savage”. This only means that they have not received a college education though they have spent some time there, for they have failed to make contact with the best human minds in history.5) If you are too much in a hurry, or too arrogantly proud of your own limitations, to accept as a gift to your humanity some pieces of the minds of Sophocles, of Aristotle, of Chaucer — and right down the scale and down the ages to Yeats, Einstein, . White, and Ogden Nash —then you may be protected by the laws governing manslaughter, and you may be a voting entity, but you are neither a developed human being nor a useful citizen of a democracy. (Para. 10)Even if you are too busy or feel complacent and, therefore, refuse to come into contact with the best human minds withinhistory, you can still be protected by law and enjoy the right to democratic voting. But you can never be considered as an educated, civilized person; nor can you be accepted by society as a useful citizen in a democratic nation.Checking Your VocabularyWord Detective1 Put down the right word from Text B in the space provided according to the given definition. The first letter of each word is already given.Example:g lobal: of or concerning the whole world1) c ombine: join together; unite2) i mplement: carry out or put into practice3) i llusion: a false idea, esp. about oneself4) i ndispensable: too important or too useful to be without5) i ntelligence: (good) ability to learn, reason, and understand6) e mphasis: special force or attention given to sth. to show that it is particularly important7) r econcile: find agreement between (two ideas, situations, etc., that seem to be in opposition)8) n egotiate: talk with another person or group in order to try to come to an agreement or settle an argument2 Fill in each blank with a word or phrase from Text B.

It enables people to learn other languages and become familiar with other subjects. It also arouses people’s interest in learning and thus lays the foundation for lifelong education.6) Besides learning to do a job in industrial economies, what other competence do people need to acquirePeople also need to acquire the competence to cope with various situations and cooperate with others in teams.7) How can pupils and students acquire the competence to work in teamsTo develop team skills, students should be provided with opportunities to involve themselves in work experience while they are still in education.8) What is the aim of “learning to be” How can the aim be achievedThe aim of “learning to be” is the c omplete fulfillment of man. All people should receive an education that would equipthem to develop an independent, critical way of thinking and exercising judgment.9) As far as education is concerned, what society should we build in the 21st century We should build a learning society based on the acquisition, renewal and use of knowledge.2 Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say in the following sentences.1) This is precisely the case where education policies are concerned. (Para. 2)The solution to any serious problem involves much consideration, cooperation and negotiation. It is exactly the same with educational policies, which can only be worked out through lots of discussions and negotiations.2) Since knowledge is of multiple nature, any attempt to know everything becomes more and more pointless. (Para. 5) There are so many different kinds of knowledge that it is increasingly meaningless and impossible to train students into specialists in all fields.3) The future of industrial economies hinges on their ability to turn advances in knowledge into innovations that will generate new businesses and new jobs. (Para. 6)The future of industrial economies depends critically on their ability to turn the development in knowledge into creative ideas, new methods or inventions. With creativity, new businesses and new jobs will be created.4) None of the talents which are hidden like buried treasure in every person must be left untapped. (Para. 7)The education one receives, which begins at birth and continues all through one’s life, should help develop and put into full play one’s potentials and talents.Enhance Your Language AwarenessWords in ActionWorking with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.
