What does a Salvation Army bell ringer do?The Salvation Army is a religious charitable organization.A Salvation Army bell ringer is a volunteer who helps it collect donations.2.What did the boy ask the writer? What do you think made him raise such a question?The boy asked him: Are you poor? He did it simply out of confusion and curiosity.Obviously he knew nothing about the Salvation Army bell ringer.3.How did the writer answer? What does the writer's answer to the boy's question mean?He said, “I have more than some people, but not as much as others.” This mean s that he was neither poor nor rich.4.Why did the boy's mother scold him?The boy's mother scolded him because the question was socially inappropriate, especially to a person who looked poor.5.Is the writer poor or not in terms of material possessions? Giv e facts to support your conclusion.Yes, he's.He’s economically he is poor.He lives in a small basement apartment.He doesn't even have a color TV.He falls into the lowest income category And so on.6.Does the writer feel poor? Why or why not?No, the writer does not feel poor.This is because he has enjoyed good health and creativity which he thinks are much more important than material goods.7.In what situation does thewriter feel out of place?He feels out of place among people who ate primarily interested in material things.8.What did the girl tell him before her visit to his basement apartment? And whathappened after?She told him that she was interested in what's on the inside.But after he Wok her to his poorly furnished apartment, she changed her mind completely.9.How ought one to understand such “a seemingly abrupt change in her priorities”?It only shows that to her the most important thing was still material goods rather than what she had claimed before.10.Can we infer from the essay what role commercials can play in society?Commercials can put people under pressure to purchase more than is really necessary.11.Why does the writer say “December is the time of year I feel wealthiest”?Because December is the time for him to work for the Salvation Army as a bell ringer, which gives him a genuine sense of belonging and brings him happiness in helping others.12.How has the boy's question affected the writer?The boy's question has helped the writer realize that, despite his lack of expensive possessions, he is rich in many other ways and should be thankful for that. Vocabulary1、Prof.Williams sys that my composition is good except for the ending which seems too.Williams教授说我的作文总体很好,除了结尾看上去太突然了点。

UNIT 7Language sense enhancementTwo centuries ago an English judge in India noticed that several words in Sanskrit closely resembled some words in Greek and Latin. A systematic study revealed that many modern languages descended from a common parent language, lost to us because nothing was written down.Identifying similar words, linguists have come up with what they call an Indo-European parent language, spoken until 3500 to 2000 B.C. These people had common words for snow, bee and wolf but no word for sea. So some scholars assume they lived somewhere in north-central Europe, where it was cold. Travelling east, some established the languages of India and Pakistan, and others drifted west toward the gentler climates of Europe. Some who made the earliest move westward became known as the Celts, whom Caesar’s armies found in Britain.Vocabulary1)Strictly speaking, he is not a southern. His biography reveals that, though born inthe south, he spent a good part of his childhood year in New England.2)Right after spring festival, millions of young people drifted from the countryside to the cities to look for work and explore the world.3)It is obvious that Tom resemble his father both in appearance and in character.4)There is clear evidence that Japan committed many serious crimes against the Chinese people when it invaded China during the Second World War.5)Medical scientists expect it will believe many years before cancer is conquered.6)The novel has a fascinating plot. This explains why it has remained number one on the best-seller list for so long.7)He must have been very busy these days. He dose not go out for lunch but eats a snack in the office.8)To settle the controversy, we have to put all these different theories into practice to see which one works better.9)The information is supposed to have come from a reliable source.10)We rarely have such terrible weather. The climate here is usually very mild and everything thrives in this region.11)People felt relieved when the invaders finally put down their arms and surrender.12)Our suspicions were first aroused when the two other parties made a deal behind our backs.Translation1) 自从新政策生效之后,很多小企业在这个城市涌现出来。

Translate the passageThough how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to many people, linguists believe that English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: the Indo-European parent language. English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.。

The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor. Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired; there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity. American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge; on the other hand, skills can be picked up later .美国人的立场可以概括起来这么说,我们比中国人更重视创新和自立。

Though how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to manypeople,linguists believe that English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: the Indo-European parent language. English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language : American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.★Text BComprehension Check: c c c d b dLanguage Practice1. g e d c b h f a2. 1) give way to 2) predict 3) substantial 4) integrate 5) in transition 6) aspect7) to name a few 8) authority 9) dominate 10) had contributed to 11) unique12) rid yourself ofUnit 8VocabularyI. 1) barking 2) evil 3) brooding, hatched 4) migrant 5) tragedies 6) counterpart7) are complaining/complain 8) grim 9) flocks, fed on 10) vegetation11) patches 12) Scores of2. 1) was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguished foreign guests2) the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office3) wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed the crowded unnoticed.4) looked deserted 5) were stricken by i t3. 1) patches, came into full bloom, were puzzled, mysterious2) throbbed with, sickened, migrant, a chorus 3) had crept into.

She craves knowledge and works hard. However, as a scientist, she could not help noticing all kinds of indications of gender inequality on campus. Men and women professors did the same work, but when it came to promotion the administrators were rather selective. It is ironic that after so much cultural progress, women were still at a disadvantage in institutions of higher education. When her request for more lab space was refused, she knew she had to fight. So she gritted her teeth and complained to the President. The fight ended in victory and Nancy was converted into a gender-equity advocate.Unit 7 Learning about EnglishText A The Glorious Messiness of EnglishI.

English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.。

They were studying arts education in Chinese kindergartensand elementary schools in Nanjing.2. Their 18-month-old son Benjamin was fond of trying to placethe key into the slot of the key box during their stay at the Jinling Hotel.3. They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teachhim how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directlyrelevant to their assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5. Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff atthe Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teachthe child that on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to importantdifferences in educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9. One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently; in a second example, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works; and in a third, young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hours a day.10. Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12. The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1) The text begins with an anecdote.2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3) He winds up the text with a suggestion in the form of a question.2.

Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your headyou cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.
