Unit 2 Using Proper Words
Words that are often used may be divided, from a stylistic point of view(按文体分), into three types: formal, common, and colloquial(有正式的、一般的、口语的).
2. Denotative Meaning and Connotative Meaning
The meaning of a word has two aspects: denotative and connotative. A word’s denotation is what it literally means, as defined by the dictionary; its connotation is the feeling or idea suggested by it.(词 义有两个方面:原义和涵义。原义即词原 来的意思,如词典中所注明的;涵义指词 所暗含的感情或想法。)
It is easy to see that the specific words on the right are much more concrete and colorful than the general ones on the left; they seem to make the reader see, hear, or feel what the writer wishes to describe. 很明显,右边的具体词汇比左边的一般词 汇更细致,更精彩;它们似乎使读者看到、 听到或感到作者所要描写的事物。
Sometimes he may use the wrong words, but more often the words he uses are not entirely wrong, but inappropriate(不恰 当), inexact(不准确), unidiomatic(不 地道) or uninteresting(不生动有趣). A basic knowledge of diction may be of help to him(因而对选词的方法有基本的了解是 会有帮助的).

(Para. 1) A tediousoddity: a father he is obliged to listen to and a man absorbed in the rules of grammar.2) Why was the writer shocked by his student’s answer? (Paras.2-4) She is unable to describe her excursion to Europe with the right words.3) Why should students not be blamed for their languagedeficiency? (Paras. 6-7) The learning environment is misleading.4) How should grammar be taught as far as the writer isconcerned? (Paras.8-10) Grammar must be handled delicately, step by step. An effective w ay of teaching could arouse children’s interest in learning English grammar. An example: a grammar lesson with my sonDifficult sentences1.If I am the only paren t who still corrects his child’s English, thenperhaps my son is right. To him, I am a tedious oddity: a father he is obliged to listen to and a man absorbed in the rules of grammar, which my son seems allergic to. (Para. 1)Meaning: My son is probably right if there is no other parent like me who still corrects his child’s mistakes in English. To my son, I am a boring and strange father, who he has to listen to; I am also the one who pays lots of attention to grammar rules, which he doesn’t seem to like.2.The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecturewere captured in a condensed non-statement. (Para. 4) Meaning: The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture were just described in one word rather than a complete statement because of her inability to choose appropriate words to express herself.3. Perhaps, language should be looked upon as a road map and a valuable possession: often study the road map (check grammar) and tune up the car engine (adjust vocabulary). Learning grammar and a good vocabulary is just like driving with a road map in a well-conditioned car. (Para. 11)Meaning: Maybe, you should regard language as a road map and avery precious property you have. You should often look at the road map (review grammar) and make small changes to your car engine (improve vocabulary).Task 3Assignment:How to write a college essay:An essay normally has three main parts: Introduction, body and conclusion.Introduction: The introduction part is usually one short paragraph that introduces the topic to be discussed and the thesis statement.

Unit 1Text C The Social Value of Small Talk1 Small Talk was written by Justine Coupland, an expert in the field of sociolinguistics which is the study of language in relation to social factors. Coupland provides a comprehensive analysis of the powerful and positive effect that small talk has in socia l interactions. She writes, “Small talk cannot be dismissed as peripheral, marginal or minor discourse. Small talk is a means by which we negotiate interpersonal relationships. This is a crucial function with significant implications for ongoing and future interactions.”peripheral: (a.) related to the key issue but not of central importancemarginal: (a.) small in importance or amountnegotiate: (v.) discuss in order to come to an agreementCritical Thinking QuestionsSome experts say only thirty percent of communication comes from talking. Do you think this conclusion is believable? Why or why not? (para.1)Have you ever been in a situation where words just fail you in a communication? What was itlike? What might be the possible reasons? (para.1)2 Nicholas Epley, a professor of behavioral science at the University of Chicago, takes Coupland’s definition a step further. He agrees with Aristotle’s famous argument that “man is by nature a social animal.” He observed that feeling socially connected increases happiness and health, whereas feeling disconnected makes one feel depressed and unhealthy. Epley writes, “People can begin to improve their own well-being and that of others–by being more sociable with strangers and by trying to create connection s instead of isolation.”Critical Thinking Questions:What is small talk?Where does small talk happen?What’ the point of having small talk?a. Do you agree that man is by nature a social animal? Why or why not?b. Why does social connection increase happiness? Why does disconnection bringabout depression?Being sociable with strangers helps improve well-being, but not many people in China today would like to move their step out. What are their concerns? (para.2)3 Epley conducted a study withdaily commuters on the Chicago metro railroad line and reported these results in an article for the Chicago Tribune . “Commuters asked to interact with other passengers reported having the most pleasant commute. Commuters asked to enjoy their solitude reported the least pleasant commute. We found the same results among both introverts and extroverts .”conduct: (n. & v.) control, manageintrovert: (n. psychology) a person who tends to shrink from social contacts and to becomepreoccupied with their own thoughtsextrovert: (n. psychology) a person concerned more with practical realities than with inner thoughtsand feelingsCritical Thinking Questions :Do you have the courage to start a conversation with a stranger in a means of transportation or on the street? Why or why not? (para.3)Do you like to make friends with introverts or extroverts? (para.3)1. Small talk helps to calm and center us .4. It is very common for many of us to feel uncomfortable or nervous in a social situation. Whether we admit to it or not, everyone fears the possibility of rejection. These fears can cause sweaty palms and make us feel tongue-tied if we try to speak. But through small talk we have a way to overcome these self-imposed limitations and insecurities . By shifting the focus from ourselves to others, we can transform our anxious self-talk from “I never know what to say” to “What I can do is to say hello and show int erest in another person.”Critical Thinking QuestionsDoes everyone fear the possibility of rejection? Are there any solutions? (para.4)How much fear are self-imposed according to you understanding? (para.4)How to show interest in other people in a social interaction? (para. 4)a. Is it natural for us to feel nervous in a social situation?b. Why do people impose limitations and insecurities on themselves?c. How to help a shy person to start small talk?a. What are the qualities needed to have connections among people?b. Is the first impression reliable in personal relationship?c. How do you understand the proverb “The tongue is the rudder ofthe ship ”?2. Small talk provides essential of connection .5. We all have an intrinsic need to not only be seen, but also to be heard. It’s this dual recognition that fosters the respect, harmony, and togetherness that we need to build our relationships. Small talk has the power to open the door of interaction and invite another person into a reciprocal exchange in a non-threatening and welcoming manner. Light and casual conversation is an easy way to let others know we are approachable, friendly, and interested. When we offer a light-hearted comment or ask or answer simple questions, we let the other people know that we are receptive and willing to communicate.intrinsic: (a.)belonging naturally; existing within, not coming from outsidedual: (a.) having two parts or aspects; doublereciprocal: (a) given and received in return; mutual6. Small talk brings us into the present moment with one another. Those first few minutes of contact can form a positive first impression that ignites a desire to know more about each other. A few words of care can bring us together. This can occur by, for example, simply saying “Bless You” when a stranger sneezes or asking “How are you feeling today?” to a co-worker recovering from an illness.ignite: (v.) arouse feelings and passions7. As the proverb states, “The tongue is the rudder of the ship.” Our words of salutation and connection can turn a solitary experience into a shared one, steering us away from loneliness and onward to greater connection.Critical Thinking QuestionsCan you give some examples of human being’s intrinsic need to be seen and heard? (para.5)Do you think feeling understood is even more important than feeling loved? (para.5)What are the qualities needed to have connections among people? (para.5)Why do we need dual recognition in building our relationships? (para.5)Do you think the first impressions about strangers are superficial, misleading or reliable? (para.5)How long do you need to form an assessment of someone’s face? What could be inferred? (para.5)What is a threatening manner in an interaction? (para.5)Would you let others know you are approachable and friendly? Why or why not? If not, what concerns do you have? (para.6)How do you understand the proverb “The tongue is the rudder of the ship”? (para.7)a. Is it easy to make transitions between different roles?b. Could the examples of physician and business meeting alwaysachieve the expected result? Why or why not?3. Small talk makes transitions easier.8. Small talk allows us to move more easily between our various roles, be they personal or professional. Small gestures such as greeting one another in a cordial and warm manner prior to a medical procedure or a difficult work project help immeasurably us to ease into the process or task ahead.* be they personal or professional= no matter what roles they should be, personal or professional9. A physician’s friendly greeting and inquiry about the patient’s family or a favorite sports team prior to an examinati on can soothe a patient’s anxieties. This indispensable small talk helps to strengthen the therapeutic relationship. It contributes greatly to the familiarity and trust that form the launching pad for further cooperative treatment .indispensable: (a.) absolutely necessarytherapeutic: (a.) relating to or involved in therapyCritical Thinking QuestionsHow many roles are you play all together? Which one is the most important one? (para. 8)Is it beneficial for a patient to have small talk with his/her doctor? (para. 9)Why is trust important in any cooperation? (para. 9)10. At the end of a business meeting, engaging in small talk can bring a gentle and appreciative closure. Following a heated debate or argument, small talk can break the ice, helping us to return to a more neutral exchange. It can provide a welcome respite from the stress of accumulated tensions and still unresolved issues. “I know we have more to discuss, but I could use something to drink. Would you like something? Maybe we could try that new tea we bought yesterday.”respite: (n) a temporary reliefCritical Thinking QuestionsIs it common to have argument and debate in a business meeting? What is the possible reasons? (para. 10) How to use small talk to respite from the tension of a business negotiation? (para. 10)a. Why do people need the opportunity to give small talk?b. Some people would like to do charitable work silently. What is theirconsideration?4. Small talk offers an opportunity to give.11. There are many books, coaches and seminars these days promoting small talk as a skill to be learned in order to turn encounters into opportunities to create unforgettable impressions. While small talk can be used to achieve a specific goal, it also provides an additional opportunity to give, share, and connect to another human being. By taking a risk to start up a conversation with another, we are drawn out of our own cubicles and our solitary habits. We demonstrate our willingness to connect. In her book Words to Live By, Mother Teresa of Calcutta calls out the tendency we have to isolate ourselves and exclude others. She cautions, “We draw the circle of our family too small.”Critical Thinking QuestionsIs it easy to turn encounters into opportunities? Is necessary to master this skill? (para. 11)Are you planning to practice giving and sharing? If not, when is the appropriate timing? (para. 11)Why and how should we draw a big circle of family? (para. 11)12.Thus, it turns out that small talk is not so small after all. We can share and receive huge dividends of goodwill and connection by allowing small talk to prove to us its myriad benefits. It’s encouraging and hopeful to realize that, at any given moment, we may be only a few sentences away from shortening our distance from another person.dividend: (n.) share of profits paid to shareholders; a bonusmyriad: (a.) too numerous to be countedCritical Thinking QuestionsWould you please raise five questions to start a small talk? (para. 12)Could you use 3 words to summarize the benefits of small talk in social interactions? (para. 12)Essay Writing:Small Talk isn’t Small。

英语历史
• 英语是全世界三千多种语言当中 的一种,属于印欧语系日尔曼语分 支。一提到英语,人们自然会想到 它是英国人的语言,因此当我们谈 论英语发展历史的时候,就得从它 的起点英国英语说起。
The Development of England and Its Language (chronological order时间顺序)
现代英语
现代英语划分为早期现代英语(从1500 年到1700 年)和现代英语(从1700 年到现 在) 两个不同时期。早期现代英语时期当中以十五世纪为最重要。这个时期(从 乔叟去世算起到伊丽莎白一世去世)的一百余年是英语史上一个转折点,即从中古 英语变为早期现代英语的巨大转折。从大约1400年开始,英语的语音发生了空前 绝后的巨大变化—称为“元音大变化”。这个元音大变化持续了250年,直到大约 1750年才完成。但英语的拼写仍沿用中古英语的习惯拼写,不能反映语音上的巨 大变化。我们可以说:从早期现代英语开始,英语的拼写就和英语的读音分家了。 早期现代英语有两大特点:第一特点是丰富多彩(尤其表现在读音和词汇方面)。 第二个特点是趋向于规范化(继续中古元音把东中部方言,即伦敦方言,作为标准 的文学语言)。尽管早期现代英语还没有完全定型,但十六世纪后半期的元音书面 语言已完全够得上称为标准语言了。另一方面,这个标准语仍处于日趋规范化的 过程中,因此在语法词汇、读音、拼写各方面仍存在着不少相互竞争的形式。直 到十八世纪中叶以后,现代英语的语法、读音和拼写才逐渐固定下来,趋于统一。 早期现代英语时期有两个主要的任务:一个是建立起英语的词汇,另一个是澄清英 语的句法。莎士比亚创造新词,德莱登(Dryden ,1631 - 1700) 和阿迪生(Addison ,1672 - 1719) 努力净化和澄清他们所继承下来的语言。继伊丽莎白时代蓬勃的创 造活动之后,接着是一个整顿和巩固的时期。英语语法结构趋于统一和稳定,语法 形式和习惯用法的改变较少。然而英语并没有停步不前,仍在缓慢而有力地变化 着,发展成为更加成熟,更富于表达力的语言。

大学英语(2)教案use English learning strategies consciously教学重难点Using proper language to talk about English learningHow to apply the reading skill – reading for the key idea in a sentence教学材料教学方法1. 教学材料:Text A课文、练习2. 教学方法:Under the guidance of student-centered principle, apply communicative and heuristic teaching methods, stimulate students’ interest in learning English and get students involved in class participation教学过程一、课前导入Talking about your experience of learning EnglishWatch the video clip and discuss the following question in pairs.1)According to the speaker, in what ways did Chinese students learn English?Chinese students practice their English by screaming it.2)Do you agree with what he said about Chinese students learning English? Why or why not.Yes, I just learned English exactly that way.No, we have learned English in different ways.3)How do you learn English? What do you think of your way of English learning?I learn English by:listening to the teacher carefully in classtaking notes …to go over lessons latercatching every chance to practice speakinglistening and reading a lotdoing enough exercises to practice grammar rulesI think my way of English learning is:effective, ineffective, interesting, boringchallenging but rewardingexamination-oriented二、文本学习1. Global understanding of the text1)Scan the text in three minutes and fill in the blanks.After I read the passage, I know the text talking about how _________ and __________ can be taught efficiently. The writer might be a ________ and a ________________ as well.2)What is the writing style of the text? Why?The writing style of the text is relaxed, which is proved by a lot of short sentences and paragraphs, casual verbs, daily talks and simple modifiers.3)Map the text structure and fill in the blanks.2. Detailed understanding of the textRead the text again and answer the following questions.1) Why does the son think that his father is a tedious oddity?Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules.2) Why does the author think that students’ language deficits should be blamed on schools?Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language.3) What does the father teach the son while giving him a grammar lesson?He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs.4) What are the two things that the author uses to describe grammar and vocabulary?The author uses “road map” and “car” to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here, “road map” is considered as grammar and “car” as vocabulary.5) How do you understand the interjection “whoa!” said by the father toward the end of the text?Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the in terjection “whoa!” reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in two different situations and with two different feelings.第二次课一、文本拓展1) Text SummaryAn Impressive English LessonTo my son, I am a _____________: a father he is __________ listen to and a man ____________ the rules of grammar. And I got ______________ this because my student was unable to describe properly her feeling on her __________ to Europe.However, it doesn’t ________________ to criticize our students. They unfairly bear the bulk of the criticism for these __________________ because there is a sense that they _________________. On one hand, they are misled by the____________. On the other hand, school fails to _________________ the essential framework of language, accurate grammar and proper vocabulary. Perhaps, language should be looked upon as a _________ and a ___________________: often study the road map (check grammar) and ________ the car engine (adjust vocabulary). Learning grammar and a good vocabulary is just like driving with a road map in a ________________ car. __________, _________, and __________ communication depends upon grammar and a good vocabulary, the two __________ assets for students, but they are ________________ in schools.2) Language Points3. Criticl thinking1)What do you think of the “impressive English lesson”? Is it effective?●Yes. Because the lesson aroused children’s interest in learning English grammar.●Yes. Because the way to learn grammar is more natural, interesting and enjoyable.●Yes, because learners become more motivated when learning something they like.●No. because it’s like a street learning without forma l instruction.2) Do you think English grammar helps you a lot in learning English? Why or why not?English grammar helps a lot:●Order sentences correctly.●Use words properly.●Talk with other English speakers confidentlyEnglish grammar is of little help:●Only give rules that are hard to remember.●It is not helpful in a real-life setting due to the limited time to think and recall the rules.●Not always applicable to the real language, especially idioms.3) How can you effectively enlarge your vocabulary?●Read more English from online sources.●Watch English TV / listen to English radio / watch English online videos.●Talk often with English speakers.●Listen carefully and extensively.●Use dictionaries to look up unfamiliar words.●Use new words as often as possible.二、写作训练 (P13)1)Structure AnalysisAs the name of our textbook implies, we read English in order to write in it. But how to write in the English way?As is known to all of us, what we write reflects what we think; and how we write mirrors how we think. In that light, our best way of writing in English is to know well how to think in English as the American or British people do. What is their way of thinking then?Different from us who think in the spiral way (螺旋式), they tend to think in the linear way (线性方式). As far as paragraph writing is concerned, deduction (演绎法) is typical of their linear way of thinking, as shown below:Starting from this book, you are moving from paragraph writing to short essay writing. In a likely manner, however, we will go through the same process for essay writing as we did for paragraph writing. In college writing, an essay normally has three main parts: introduction, body,What are minor details and what are the main ideas. (Many words in a sentence describe things about the subject of the sentence but they merely find the details to it. If we ask when, what, where, or why, we will find out these details, which further help us to see the key idea of the sentence.)4) What to keep in mind to find out the key idea of a sentence?Of course, we cannot always easily decide which details are simply descriptive and which add much to the key idea. However, the starting point for determining the key idea ina sentence is to find who or what the sentence is about and what the person or object isdoing.2. 文本学习1) Applying the reading skillWhat can the title “The Great Journey of Learning” tell us?The title “The Great Journey of Learning”, coupled with the topic “Language in Mission” of the unit, tells us the central idea—The process of learning has a profound effect on one’s life.2) Detailed understanding of the textRead Text B and choose the best answer to each of the questions (Page 24)Read the text again and think about the following questions:1. Why did Malcolm X want to learn English? (Para.2)Because he was poorly educated, he felt inadequate to teach his new beliefs to others.2. What motivated Malcolm X to launch on a quest to overcome his language deficiencies? Malcolm X’s considerable frustration at his inability to read and write launched him on a quest to overcome his deficiencies.3. How did Malcolm X move from basic literacy toward true proficiency? (Para. 5)He copied dictionary, read everything he had written aloud and logged important things that happened every day. Repetition helped move him from basic literacy toward true proficiency. 4. What did Malcolm X obtain from language learning? (Paras. 9-10) Reading had changed forever the course of Malcolm X’s life. As he acquired knowledge, his horizons expanded. He had left behind the narrow, ignorant world of his youth to join the world community of thoughts and actions ever since he started with his great journey of learning English in prison.3. 知识总结听说训练第四次课教学目的及要求Talk about learning experiencesListen for signal words for listingGive and respond to adviceTalk about learning / teaching methods教学过程1.
