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.Unit8 Protecting Our Environment VocabularyI1.1)barking2)evil3)brooding;hatched 4)migrant 5)tragedies6)counterpart7)arecomplaining/co-mplain8)grim9)flocks; fed on10)vegetation11)patches12)Scores of2.1)was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguishedforeign guests.2)the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office.3)wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed thecrowed unnoticed.4)looked deserted.5)were stricken by it.3.1)patches; came into full bloom; were puzzled; mysterious2)throbbed with; sickened; migrant; a chorus3)had crept into; flickered; the starkII.Word Formation1.Compound words age-oldair force daughter-in-law first-rate greenhousehalf brother ice-cream lifelikelight year salespersonself-centered threefold overusestone-still worldwide Chinese meaning古老的空军儿媳妇一流的温室同母异父兄弟；同父异母兄弟冰淇淋逼真的光年售货员；推销员以自己为中心的，自私的三倍过度使用石头似的一动不动全世界范围的；在世界范围内2.1)poverty-stricken people2)heart-breaking news3)newly-built database4)well-fed kids 5)successful spacewalk6)peace-loving people7)need-based scholarships8)color-blind peopleIII.Confusable Words1.lyingidyin5.liey7.lieyy10.liesComprehensive Exercises I.cloze1.(1)spell(2)stricken(3)misfortunes(4)surroundings(5)blossom/bloom(6)migrant (7)deserted(8)silence(9)sickened(10)hatch(11)puzzled(12)in harmony with2.(1)rate(2)publication(3)dangerous(4)banned (5)export(6)profit(7)accept(8)comprehend(9)boundaries(10)ultimatelyII.Translation1.1)This is a prosperous town, but there is still poverty in the midstof wealth and abundance.2)The Brown family was stricken with one misfortune after another,but their children never complained.3)The museum is designed in such a way that it stands in perfectharmony with its surroundings.4)It was a miracle that these flowers did not wither at all in theblazing sun.5)Flocks of sheep feed on the patches of vegetation that rise abovethe winter snow.2.This village was once famous for its beautiful natural surroundings. All the year round, the trees were green and the flowers in bloom. Clear streams flowed out of the hills through a checkerboard of rice fields. Birds sang all day, and deer came and went in a leisurely manner. However, with the coming of DDT and other pesticides, an evil spell seemed to have settled over the village. Misfortunes came one after another. Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village doctor. The village square, once throbbing with life, was now deserted.。

Unit1Part Three: ClozeIs there a contrast between learning styles in China and the West While we should be careful to avoid exaggerating the differences, they do appear to exist. In China, for example, greater priority is given to developing skills at an early age. The Americans, on the other hand , place more emphasis on promoting creativity in young children, leaving them to pick upskills later. American parents tend to avoid rushing in to assist their children as they try to accomplish a task, thinking itbetter that children should learn to solve problems by themselves. Such an approach can, on occasion , be mistaken forneglecting one’s parental duties by those more used to “teaching by holding the hand.”Both approaches have their disadvantages as well as advantages, and it may well be worthwhile to search for a superior method that would combinethe best of both worlds.-------Theme-relatedThe real challenge to us teacher is combining the best of both worlds into one . Creativity and basic skills need to be considered in terms of being means to an [end] , rather than simply as ends in themselves . Some Chinese students may not [perform] well in hypothetical settings ,but when it comes to [facing] real life challenges and issues ,they are more than [competent] in resolving most of them, [equipped] as they are with their strong skill .The . system may be [designed] to aim more at producing top of the cream students ,but that [approach] may do damage to the big bulk of the [rest] of the student body .The Chinese education system is [definitely] not perfect ,but it does produce a [quality] workforce ,And I truly believe that solid basic knowledge/skill focus is the single biggest force driving the rise of Chinese as a country .翻译：背叛传统需要极大的勇气。

Though 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 acommon 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 it3. 1) patches, came into full bloom, were puzzled, mysterious2) throbbed with, sickened, migrant, a chorus 3) had crept into.

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.

However, as a scientist, she could not help noticing all kinds of indications of gender inequality on campus.

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. Vocabulary1.

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.

Birds sang all day, and deer came and went in in a leisurely manner. However, with the coming of DDT and other pesticides, an evil spell seemed to have settled over the villlage. Misfortunes came one after another. Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village docter.

They were studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary schools in Nanjing.2. Their 18-month-old son Benjamin was fond of trying to place the 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 teach him how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant 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 at the Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to important differences 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.

Though how the English language came into existenceremains 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 theirlanguage.★ 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) hadcontributed 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 thecrowded unnoticed.4) looked deserted 5) were stricken by it3. 1) patches, came into full bloom, were puzzled, mysterious2) throbbed with, sickened, migrant, a chorus 3) had crept into.

Unit1Part Three: ClozeIs there a contrast between learning styles in China and the West? While we should be careful to avoid exaggerating the differences, they do appear to exist. In China, for example, greater priority is givento developing skills at an early age. The Americans, on the other hand, place more emphasis on promotingcreativity in young children, leaving them to pick up skills later. American parents tend to avoid rushingin to assist their children as they try to accomplish a task, thinking it better that children shouldlearn to solve problems by themselves. Such an approach can, on occasion, be mistaken for neglecting one’sparental duties by those more used to “teaching by holding the hand.” Both approaches have their disadvantages as well as advantages, and it may well be worthwhile to search for a superior method thatwould combine the best of both worlds.-------Theme-relatedThe real challenge to us teacher is combining the best of both worlds into one . Creativity and basic skills need to be considered in terms of being means to an [end], rather than simply as ends in themselves . Some Chinese students may not [perform] well in hypothetical settings ,but when it comes to [facing] real life challenges and issues ,they are more than[competent] in resolving most of them, [equipped]as they are with their strong skill .The U.S. system may be [designed]to aim more at producing top of the cream students ,but that [approach]may do damage to the big bulk of the [rest] of the student body .The Chinese education system is [definitely] not perfect ,but it does produce a [quality] workforce ,And I truly believe that solid basic knowledge/skill focus is the single biggest force driving the rise of Chinese as a country .翻译：背离传统需要极大的勇气。

He was a cheerful man who never threw his weight around.Everyone from top executive down to the ordinary worker could expect fair treatment at his hands. He was quick to recognize and reward hard work and to cultivate new ideas. Those who showed loyalty to the company were given the chance to buy stock. I did myself. And my children qualified for the scholarships he made available. Outside work he carried on much like ordinary folks and if you didn’t know him you wouldn’t be able to tell him apart from the other local people in the small town where we lived.How dose spending connect to happiness?One explanation lies in "conspicuous consumption ". The idea is that the rich don't accumulate wealth simply in order to [consume] it . Rather they accumulate wealth in order to display it , and their happiness is [fueled] by their neighbors' envy . As a result ,the country finds itself in the grips of a "luxury fever "----families with [annual ]incomes of $50,000 try to emulate the consumption of those with $70,000 , who in turn try to emulate thosewith $140,000 ,and so an .It's just [plain] common sense . It's [physically] impossible for a piece of paper like money to make you happy . Instead what makes people happy is the feeling of [security] or power money bring .A recent survey [indicates] that those from the Forbes list of the 400 richest Americans sand the Maasai of East Africa are almost [equally] satisfied . The Maasai are a [traditional] herding people who have to no electricity or running water and live in huts made of mud .It [follows] that economic development and personal income cannot account for the happiness that they are so often linked to .翻译：该公司否认其捐款又商业目的。
