Being very short of money and wanting to do something useful, I applied, fearing as I did so, that without a degree and with no experience of teaching my chances of landing the job were slim.

Some information about April Fool’s DayApril Fool’s Day is on April 1st. It is traditionally a day to play practical jokes on others, send people on fool's errands, and fool the unsuspecting. No one knows how this holiday began but it was thought to have originated in France.The closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition was in 1582, in France. New Year's was celebrated on March 25 and celebrations lasted until April 1st. When New Year's Day was changed from March 25 to January 1st in the mid-1560's by King Charles IX, there were some people who still celebrated it on April 1st and those people were called April Fools.Pranks performed on April Fool's Day range from the simple, (such as saying, "Your shoe's untied!), to the elaborate. Setting a roommate's alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film once shown on April Fool's Day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees.Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "April Fool!"April Fool's Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It's simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool!Each country celebrates April Fool's differently. In France, the April Fool's is called "April Fish" (Poisson d'Avril). The French fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends' backs and when some discovers a this trick, they yell "Poisson d'Avril!". In England, tricks can be played only in the morning. If a trick is played on you, you are a "noodle". In Scotland, April Fools Day is 48 hours long and you are called an "April Gowk", which is another name for a cuckoo bird. The second day in Scotland's April Fool's is called Taily Day and is dedicated to pranks involving the buttocks. Taily Day's gift to posterior posterity is the still-hilarious "Kick Me" sign.Unit 3(6 hours)I.

There’s a non-stop calendar of events with many sports played in summer or winter. It’s no wonder manyBritish people think in sporting seasons rather than years.The United Kingdom has given birth to a range of major international sports including: football, rugby, cricket, golf, tennis, badminton, squash, hockey, boxing, snooker, billiards and curling. It has also played a key role in the development of sports such as Sailing and Formula One.Football is undoubtedly the most popular sport in England, and has been played for hundreds of years. In the English Football League there are 92 professional clubs. These are semi-professional, so most players have other full-time jobs. Hundreds of thousands of people also play football in parks and playgrounds just for fun. The highlight of the English football year is the FA (Football Association) Cup Final each May. The beautiful game is not only a sport in Britain but a way of life. Players like England ace David Beckham have turned heads all over the world and made teams like Manchester United and Arsenal household names.Rugby is similar to football, but played with an oval ball. Players can carry the ball and tackle each other. The best rugby teams compete in the Super League Final each September. For many years rugby was only played by the rich upper classes, but now it is popular all over the country.The world’s most famous tennis tournament is Wimbledon. It started at a small club in south London in the 19th century. It begins on the nearest Monday to June 22, at a time when the English often have the finest weather. Millions of people watch the Championships on TV live. It is traditional for visitors to eat strawberries and cream whilst they watch the tennis.Horse racing, the sport of kings, is a very popular sport with meetings being held every day throughout the year. The Derby originated here, as did The Grand National which is the hardest horse race in the world. Horse racing and greyhound racing are popular spectator sports. People can place bets on the races at legal off-track betting shops.READING ITwo Kinds of FootballAmerican football, not to be confused with the football called soccer, is the American national sport. It developed from the British game of rugby and, although it is played in no other country in the world (except Canada), it excites tremendous enthusiasm. Intercollegiate games (games between universities) are great social occasions. More than 100,000 mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, students and football fans from the general public, crowd into the huge, luxurious stadiums. During a recent college final in the Rose Bowl at Pasadena, California, there were severe earthquake tremors, but nobody noticed!The method of scoring in American football is the same as in rugby. Players try to carry the ball over the opponents’line, and then to earn more points by kicking the ball between the upright goal posts above the bar. But that is where the likeness between the two games ends.American football has a reputation for being a brutal and dangerous game. This reputation is not really deserved. The players hurl themselves at each other fiercely, but today their uniforms and helmets (fitted with visors to protect their faces) are so skilfully padded that there are few serious injuries. By comparison, the rugby player is almost naked, having only a thin jersey and a pair of shorts to protect him from his opponents’boots and tackling.The Americans are addicted to crazes. When they take something up, they do so wholeheartedly, and often the rest of the world follows their lead. Jogging is an example of this. The Americans now have another craze, a game which most other countries call “football,”but which they call soccer. Soccer is spreading like wildfire through all the States and gaining in popularity on baseball. It is being run by big business and TV advertisers, who are doing everything they can to sell it to the public. They are employing famous fashion designers to design novel uniforms for the players. They have introduced a musical background to the games, and there is a big screen in the stadium which explains to spectators what is happening. Most important, they have hired, at enormous expense, famous coaches and players from Europe and South America. They have also changed some of the rules, including the offside rules to make the game more exciting.Soccer games can now draw crowds of over 70,000 in cities where baseball attracts a mere20,000 spectators. The soccer stadiums are much more luxurious than the vast majority of European and South American league grounds. There is a seat for everyone and a parking lot for 25,000 cars.Soccer is being brilliantly promoted, like any other promising American product.READING IIThe Physical Miseducation of a Former Fat BoyWhen I was six, a next-door neighbor gave me my first candy bar, and I fattened immediately in a home where food was love. It is hardly surprising that when I first entered physical education courses in the eighth grade my coaches were markedly unimpressed or that thereafter I compensated by working harder at books, where I was more successful. Although I did learn to take jokes about my size and experienced the “bigness”of being able to laugh at myself (the standard fat man’s reward), at thirty-five I am furious to recall how readily and completely my instructors defaulted in their responsibilities to me. Some remedies I have learned in my thirties persuade me that it is not inevitable that the system will continue to fail other fat boys.My personal remedies for physical ineptitude have a firm base in ideas. Four years ago I weighed 265 pounds. Only my analyst needs to know how much I consequently hated myself. In six months I took off 105 pounds and initiated a regular jogging and exercising schedule that has gradually, very gradually, led to increased self-confidence. Yet my physical education teachers in secondary school and college never showed the least interest in my physical problems, never sat down and initiated the simplest diagnosis of my physical needs, never tempted me into thepersonal discoveries that I have to wait more than a decade to make for myself.Instead, my physical educators offered two alternatives. Either I could enter the fierce competitive sports that predominate in our culture and therein make and accept the highest mark I could achieve; or I could opt for the less-competitive intramurals, modeled after the big boys’games, and accept my role as a physically incompetent human being, sitting on the sidelines to cheer for a chosen team of professionals. These limited alternatives were repeatedly justified as teaching me how it is out in the “real world,”in “the game of life,”allegedly divided between the participators and the watchers.Now, as I jog in my midwinter dawn, all muffled with socks over my hands, making tracks with the rabbits in Carolina dew, I am not competing with anyone, unless I whimsically imagine Father Time having to add another leaf to my book. I am celebrating me, this morning, this pair of wornout tennis shoes, the tingle in my cheeks, the space being cleared in my stomach for my simple breakfast when I get back…I was very articulate at fourteen —fat by articulate —and I believe that a sympathetic, interested coach could have shared this type of insight, this type of reality, with me, and perhaps thereby he could have teased me into the discoveries I had to take many years later.But the coach would have had to love kids like me more than he loved winning if he had hoped to participate in my physical education. I had no such coach.My physical educators were signally unimaginative. We played only the few sports that had always been played in our area. Further, they maintained a rigid separation between “sports”and “play.”Football, baseball, basketball, and track were “sports.”Fishing, hiking, boating, and jogging were “play.”Golf was “play”until you had a team that won five trophies; then you developed the cool rhetoric of “sport.”。

Such moments are rare, certainly, but they come to all of us. Sometimes from a book, a sermon, a line of poetry. Sometimes from a friend ...2 That wintry afternoon in Manhattan, waiting in the little French restaurant, I was feeling frustrated and depressed. Because of several miscalculations on my part, a project of considerable importance in my life had fallen through. Even the prospect of seeing a dear friend (the Old Man, as I privately and affectionately thought of him) failed to cheer me as it usually did. I sat there frowning at the checkered tablecloth, chewing the bitter cud of hindsight.3 He came across the street, finally, muffled in his ancient overcoat, shapeless felt hat pulled down over his bald head, looking more like an energetic gnome than an eminent psychiatrist. His offices were nearby; I knew he had just left his last patient of the day. He was close to 80, but he still carried a full case load, still acted as director of a large foundation, still loved to escape to the golf course whenever he could.4 By the time he came over and sat beside me, the waiter had brought his invariable bottle of ale. I had not seen him for several months, but he seemed as indestructible as ever. "Well, young man," he said without preliminary, "what's troubling you?"5 I had long since ceased to be surprised at his perceptiveness. So I proceeded to tell him, at some length, just what was bothering me. With a kind of melancholy pride, I tried to be very honest. I blamed no one else for my disappointment, only myself. I analyzed the whole thing, all the bad judgments, the false moves. I went on for perhaps 15 minutes, while the Old Man sipped his ale in silence.6 When I finished, he put down his glass. "Come on," he said. "Let's go back to my office."7 "Your office? Did you forget something?"8 "No," he said mildly. "I want your reaction to something. That's all."9 A chill rain was beginning to fall outside, but his office was warm and comfortable and familiar: book-lined walls, long leather couch, signed photograph of Sigmund Freud, tape recorder by the window. His secretary had gone home. We were alone.10 The Old Man took a tape from a flat cardboard box and fitted it onto the machine. "On this tape," he said, "are three short recordings made by three persons who came to me for help. They are not identified, of course. I want you to listen to the recordings and see if you can pick out the two-word phrase that is the common denominator in all three cases." He smiled. "Don't look so puzzled. I have my reasons."11 What the owners of the voices on the tape had in common, it seemed to me, was unhappiness. The man who spoke first evidently had suffered some kind of business loss or failure; he berated himself for not having worked harder, for not having looked ahead. The woman who spoke next had never married because of a sense of obligation to her widowed mother; she recalled bitterly all the marital chances she had let go by. The third voice belonged to a mother whose teen-age son was in trouble with the police; she blamed herself endlessly.12 The Old Man switched off the machine and leaned back in his chair. "Six times in those recordings a phrase is used that's full of subtle poison. Did you spot it? No? Well, perhaps that's because you used it three times yourself down in the restaurant a little while ago." He picked up the box that had held the tape and tossed it over to me. "There they are, right on the label. The two saddest words in any language."13 I looked down. Printed neatly in red ink were the words: If only.14 "You'd be amazed," said the Old Man, "if you knew how many thousands of times I've sat in this chair and listened to woeful sentences beginning with those two words. 'If only,' they say to me, 'I had done it differently — or not done it at all. If only I hadn't lost my temper, said the cruel thing, made that dishonest move, told that foolish lie. If only I had been wiser, or more unselfish, or more self-controlled.' They go on and on until I stop them. Sometimes I make them listen to the recordings you just heard. 'If only,' I say to them, 'you'd stop saying if only, we might begin to get somewhere!'"15 The Old Man stretched out his legs. "The trouble with 'if only,'" he said, "is that it doesn't change anything. It keeps the person facing the wrong way —backward instead of forward. It wastes time. In the end, if you let it become a habit, it can become a real roadblock, an excuse for not trying any more.16 "Now take your own case: your plans didn't work out. Why? Because you made certain mistakes. Well, that's all right: everyone makes mistakes. Mistakes are what we learn from. But when you were telling me about them, lamenting this, regretting that, you weren't really learning from them."17 "How do you know?" I said, a bit defensively.18 "Because," said the Old Man, "you never got out of the past tense. Not once did you mention the future. And in a way —be honest, now! — you were enjoying it. There's a perverse streak in all of us that makes us like to hash over old mistakes. After all, when you relate the story of some disaster or disappointment that has happened to you, you're still the chief character, still in the center of the stage."19 I shook my head ruefully. "Well, what's the remedy?"20 "Shift the focus," said the Old Man promptly. "Change the key words and substitute a phrasethat supplies lift instead of creating drag."21 "Do you have such a phrase to recommend?"22 "Certainly. Strike out the words 'if only'; substitute the phrase 'next time.'"23 "Next time?"24 "That's right. I've seen it work minor miracles right here in this room. As long as a patient keeps saying 'if only' to me, he's in trouble. But when he looks me in the eye and says 'next time,' I know he's on his way to overcoming his problem. It means he has decided to apply the lessons he has learned from his experience, however grim or painful it may have been. It means he's going to push aside the roadblock of regret, move forward, take action, resume living. Try it yourself. You'll see."25 My old friend stopped speaking. Outside, I could hear the rain whispering against the windowpane. I tried sliding one phrase out of my mind and replacing it with the other. It was fanciful, of course, but I could hear the new words lock into place with an audible click....26 The Old Man stood up a bit stiffly. "Well, class dismissed. It has been good to see you, young man. Always is. Now, if you will help me find a taxi, I probably should be getting on home."27 We came out of the building into the rainy night. I spotted a cruising cab and ran toward it, but another pedestrian was quicker.28 "My, my," said the Old Man slyly. "If only we had come down ten seconds sooner, we'd have caught that cab, wouldn't we?"29 I laughed and picked up the cue. "Next time I'll run faster."30 "That's it," cried the Old Man, pulling his absurd hat down around his ears. "That's it exactly!"31 Another taxi slowed. I opened the door for him. He smiled and waved as it moved away. I never saw him again. A month later, he died of a sudden heart attack, in full stride, so to speak.32 More than a year has passed since that rainy afternoon in Manhattan. But to this day, whenever I find myself thinking "if only", I change it to "next time". Then I wait for that almost-perceptible mental click. And when I hear it, I think of the Old Man.33 A small fragment of immortality, to be sure. But it's the kind he would have wanted.Words and Phrases1.prospect n. sth. one expects to happen; a possibility or likelihood of sth. happeninge.g. I look forward to the prospect of being a volunteer doing social work in the GreatNorthwest.There is a reasonable prospect of reaching the trapped miners within the next 24 hours.prospects pl. — opportunitiese.g. Most people are not quite optimistic about the prospects for/of employment.Don't think too much how the job pays now.

(para. 1)Key: To him, the session was just like "a flash of insight that leaves him a changed person —not only changed, but changed for the better."3.Why did the old man let the author listen to the three speakers on the tape? (para.15)Key:The three speakers on the tape were all unhappy, and the two words they all used frequently in what they said were "if only". What the old man wanted to point out to the author was that to keep saying "if only" would not change anything; on the contrary, it only kept the person facing the wrong way — backward instead of forward. Thus it did more harm than good to the person who kept saying them.4.What did the old man advise the author to do to get out of his depressed state of mind? (para.20)Key: Shift the focus; substitute "next time" for "if only".5.In what way are the two phrases "if only" and "next time" different?

The chief purpose of narration is to interest and entertain, though, of course, it may be used to instruct and inform. Narrative Structure of the TextGordon's purpose of writing, obviously, is not just to tell what happened during his meeting with his friend, but, more importantly, to instruct. The instructive significance of the story is made clear in the first paragraph. In the first few lines Gordon has already made it clear to the reader that what he is going to do is to tell how "the sudden flash of insight that leaves you a changed person — not only changed, but changed for the better — ... Sometimes from a friend."In the first three paragraphs, which serve as a kind of introduction to the narration, we learn something about the physical circumstances for the meeting, i.e. the time —one rainy wintry afternoon, and the place — a French restaurant in Manhattan; the author's somber mood caused by his failure to complete an important project; and also something about the Old Man —his age, his profession, and perhaps more importantly, his positive attitude towards life.The last two paragraphs form a sort of conclusion, in which what the author has learned from his friend, which is also what he wants his readers to learn, is explicitly stated: ... whenever I find myself thinking "if only", I change it to "next time".III. Text IIText StudyTextThe Romance of WordsWilfred Funk and Norman Lewis1 From now on we want you to look at words intently, to be inordinately curious about them and to examine them syllable by syllable, letter by letter. They are your tools of understanding and self-expression. Collect them. Keep them in condition. Learn how to handle them. Develop a fastidious, but not a fussy, choice. Work always towards good taste in their use. Train your ear for their harmonies.2 We urge you not to take words for granted just because they have been part of your daily speech since childhood. You must examine them. Turn them over and over, and see the seal and superscription on each one, as though you were handling a coin. We would like you actually to fall in love with words.3 Words, as you know, are not dead things. They are fairly wriggling with life. They are the exciting and mysterious tokens of our thoughts, and like human beings, they are born, come to maturity, grow old and die, and sometimes they are even re-born in a new age. A word, from its birth to its death, is a process, not a static thing.4 Words, like living trees, have roots, branches and leaves.5 Shall we stay with this analogy for a few moments, and see how perfect it is?6 The story of the root of a word is the story of its origin. The study of origins is called etymology, which in turn has its roots in the Greek word etymon meaning "true" and the Greek ending — logia meaning "knowledge." So etymology means the true knowledge of words.7 Every word in our language is a frozen metaphor, a frozen picture. It is this poetry behind words that gives language its overwhelming power. And the more intimately we know the romance that lies within each word, the better understanding we will have of its meaning.8 For instance, on certain occasions you will probably say that you have "calculated" the cost of something or other. What does this term "calculate" really mean? Here is the story. Years ago, ancient Romans had an instrument called a hodometer, or "road measurer," which corresponds to our modern taximeter. If you had hired a two-wheeled Roman vehicle to ride, say, to the Forum, you might have found in the back a tin can with a revolving cover that held a quantity of pebbles. This can was so contrived that each time the wheel turned the metal cover also revolved and a pebble dropped through a hole into the receptacle below. At the end of your trip you counted the pebbles and calculated your bill. You see the Latin word for pebble was calculus, and that's where our word "calculate" comes from.9 There are, of course, many words with much simpler histories than this. When you speak of a "surplus," for instance, you are merely saying that you have a sur (French for "over") plus (French for "more") or a sur-plus. That is, you have an "over-more" than you need.10 Should you be in a snooty mood for the nonce, and happen to look at someone rather haughtily, your friends might call you supercilious, a word which comes from the Latin supercilium, meaning that "eyebrow" you just raised. That person you are so fond of, who hasbecome your companion, — [cum (Latin for "with") and panis (Latin for "bread")] — is simply one who eats bread with you. That's all. Again, "trumps" in bridge is from the French "triomphe" or triumph, an old-time game of cards. In modern cards one suit is allowed to triumph over, or to "trump" the other suits. And still again, in the army, the lieutenant is literally one who takes the place of the captain when the latter is not around. From the French lieu (we use it in "in lieu of") and tenir, "to hold." The captain, in turn, derives from the Latin word caput (head); colonel comes from columna (the "column" that he leads).11 If, by any chance, you would like to twit your friend, the Wall Street broker, just tell him that his professional title came from the Middle English word brocour, a broacher, or one who opens, or broaches, a cask to draw off the wine or liquor. We still employ the same word in the original sense when we say "he broached (or opened up) the subject." Finally the broacher, or broker, became a salesman of wine. Then of other things, such as stocks and bonds.12 These are the roots of words. We next come to the branches. The branches of our language tree are those many groups of words that have grown out from one original root.13 Let's take an example. The Latin term spectare which means "to see" contains the root spec, and from this one root have sprouted more than 240 English words. We find the root hidden in such words as spectacles, those things you "see" through; in respect, the tribute you give to a person you care to "see" again; inspect, "to see" into; disrespect (dis — unwilling; re —again; spec — to see) therefore, when you treat someone with disrespect, you make it plain that you do not care to see him again; introspection, looking or seeing within; spectator, one who "sees" or watches.14 Turning to the Greek language, which has so largely enriched our own, we discover the root appearing in English as graph. This means "to write" and has been a prolific source of words for us. We have telegraph, which literally means "far writing"; phonograph, "soundwriting"; photograph, "light-writing"; stenographer, one who does "condensed writing"; a graphic description, one that is just as clear and effective as though it had been written down; mimeograph, "to write a copy or。

(The singer needs a break because the pace of life has quickened, the environment has been changed, and the old life style is gone.) 2. 1) Ss divide into three large groups, under each group smaller sub-groups may form. Each large group i s assigned one of the following discussion topics: — Why do so many migrant workers move from the country to the city? — Why do city people buy apartments or houses in the suburbs, even in the countryside? — Why are tours of Zhou Zhuang (周庄), Li Jiang (丽江) or any other old towns so popular?

T asks Ss to prepare for the next unit: (2 minutes)1) do the pre-reading task; 2) preview Text A . Ⅱ. Text Analysis The author writes his piece in a clear and logical way. In many instances he employs the pattern of “one topic sentence + several detail sentences” structure. It’s easy for readers to grasp the main idea, and it is also proven effective for learner writers like our students. Sometimes the the detail detail sentences run run parallel parallel to to each each other, other, like like those those in in Para Para 2. 2. In In some some other other paragraphs the detail sentences have their own hierarchy . Take Para 5 for example. The fi rst sentence tells how busy “I” am. The second sentence states that Sandy , the wife, is also busy. The final sentence i s a kind of summary summary——nobody can relax. Y e t following the second sentence there are a few more detail sentences showing et following the second sentence there are a few more detail sentences showing exactly how tight a schedule Sandy has. Take Paras 12-13 for an other example. The topi c sentence therein i s “I suspect not everyone who loves the country would be happy living the way we do. It takes a couple of special qualities.” Then there are two sub -topic sentences:sentences: “One i “One is a tolerance for solitude”; “T he other requirement i s energy energy—a lot of it.” Each sub —a lot of it.” Each sub-topic sentence has its own supporting details. Sometimes Sometimes there there is no is no transitional transitional devices devices between between detail sentences, sometimes detail sentences, sometimes t here there are, are, the the most most frequently used one of which is time words or phrases. For example, the detail sentences in Para 4 begi n with “three months ago”, “three months from now”, “recently”, and “later thi s month”, respectively. To be sure, other conjunctions scatter the text, like “first”- “then” -”then” - “eventually” in Para 7.Ⅲ. Cultural Notes 1. the countryside: The countryside of Britain is well known for its beauty and many contrasts: its bare mountains mountains and and moorland, moorland, its its lakes, rivers lakes, rivers and woods, and and its its long, long, often wild often wild coastline. coastline. Many Many of of the the most beautiful areas are national parks and are protected from development. When British people think of farmland, as well as open spaces, they imagine cows or sheep in green fields enclosed by hedges or stone walls, and fields of wheat and barley . Many people associate the countryside wi th peace and relaxation. They spend their free ti me walking or cycling there, or go to the country for a pi cnic or a pub lunch. Only a few people who live in the country work on farms. Many commute to work in towns. Many others dream of living in the country , where they believe they would have a better and healthier lifestyle. America America has many has many areas of wild and beautiful scenery scenery, and there , and there a re are many areas, many areas, especially especially in in the the West West in states in states like like Montana and Montana and W yoming, where few people live. live. In In the the New New England England states, such as states, such as V ermont and New Hampshire, it i s common to see small farms surrounded by hills and green areas. In Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other Midwestern states, fields of corn or wheat reach to the horizon and there are many miles between towns. Only about 20% of Ameri cans live outside cities and towns. Life may be diffi cult for people who live in the country . Services like hospitals and schools may be further away, and going shopping can mean driving long distances. Some people even have to drive from their homes to the main road where their mailis left in a box. In spite of the disadvantages, many people who live in the country say that they like the safe, clean, attractive environment. But their children often move to a town or city as soon as they can. As in Britain, Americans like to go out to the country at weekends. Some people go on camping or fishing trips, others go hiking in national parks. 2.

On hi s scale, water freezes at 32°32°F and boils at 212°F and boils at 212°F (under set atmospheric conditions). No longer used in scientific work, Fahrenheit temperatures still feature feature in in everyday everyday language; language; hot days hot days “in “in the the eighties”, for eighties”, for example. example. To convert To convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius (centigrade), subtract 32, then multiply by 5/9.3. Celsius scale: a scale of of hotness, hotness, or or temperature, temperature, first first established established by by the the Swedish scientist Swedish scientist Anders Celsius (1701-1744) in 1742. On this scale, the unit of temperature i s the degree Celsius (°C); water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C (under agreed standard atmospheri c conditions), although when Celsius originally devised the scale he made 0° the boiling-point and 100° the freezing-point. The Cel sius scale was formerly commonly known known as as the the centigrade centigrade scale scale because because of of the the 100 100 divisions divisions between the the freezing- freezing- and boiling-points of water. To convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit multiply by 9/5 and add 32.4.
