教案课程名称新视野商务英语视听说(第四版)(上) 课时班级专业教师系部教研室教材《新视野商务英语视听说(第四版)(上)》1Unit 6 Company PresentationsLearning Objectives(教学目标)2Business Profile(内容概览)What Makes an Effective PresentationA presentation is a prepared talk given by a speaker to one or more listeners. To be effective, the speaker’s message must pass to the listeners—it must be heard and correctly understood. In general, two-way communication is more effective than one-way communication; so, encourage the audience to participate—by asking questions or making comments. In any case, remember that the talk is given for their benefits—not for the speaker’s.So, what are the elements of an effective presentation?●effective organisation of information● effective delivery of information● effective use of language● never forgetting your audience● allowing participation through questions or commentsThe following points may help you identify the skills and techniques you need. Organisation of information● Transparency of structure (have a clear beginning, middle and end)● Organisation of content (clearly identify the main points and supporting points)● Level of information (start in the audience’s area of interest)Delivery of information● Image (decide whether to appear formal or informal, relaxed or high-powered?)● Audience features (know their interests?)● Nonlinguistic techniques (use suitable body language and eye contact)● Linguistic techniques (pay attention to voice audibility and clarity, variation in pace and pitch, pauses, questions and humour)● Technical support (use of visual aids, e.g. slides, flip chart, transparencies and PPTs)Use of language● Vocabulary (choose the right word for spoken rather than written language)● Grammar (assemble the sentences in correct language forms)● Pronunciation (stress words correctly)● Fluency (variation in sentence structure and length)● Speed (link your ideas, and don’t talk too quickly)A brief introduction is always given at the very beginning of the presentation. It should include at least four pieces of information:● What you’re going to talk about;● How long you’ll take;● What your main parts or sections will be;● Whether you’d welcome questions during your talk, or only at the end.This could take as little as 45 seconds, but it will give you time to establish contact with the audience. Don’t only try to impress them by your organisation and obvious preparation. Go out of your way to make some comments on the present situation (e.g. excellent lunch,3weather—anything which shows awareness of the world outside your subject). Beware of jokes, and make as much eye contact as possible. If necessary, give a few facts about yourself and the purpose or background of your talk.Language Expansion(语言扩充)Talking about company profileIntroducing your presentation● I’m going to talk about/explain/inform you about the launch of the new product.● The subject/focus of my talk/presentation is the history of our company.● This should last 30 minutes.● There are three parts in my presentation. They are Company History, Main Markets and People.● If you have any questions, please feel free to interrupt.Introducing your company● Our company provides/manufactures home appliances.● We’re based/headquartered in London.● We’re the general agent for Canon Inc.● We employ more than 60,000 people.● We have more than 150 clients/offices all over the world.● Our products are for both domestic and foreign markets.● Our annual income/revenue is 11 million US dollars.● We came to China in 1995.● Currently, our company is developing very quickly.● Sales have increased/dropped slightly since July.● Production has increased/dropped by 21%.● Profits have gone up by 40%.4Teaching Tips(教学步骤)Pre-viewing● Divide the class into groups of four, with one note-taker in each group.● Ask Ss to exchange ideas within group and ask each note-taker to note down the ideas of his/her group members.● Invite two or three note-takers to report the results of their group discussion.● List the ideas Ss come up with on the board.● See if other groups have something to add.Post-viewing● Go through the structure of the introduction part of the presentation with the class.● Divide the class into groups of three. Ask each group to choose a situation.● Tell Ss to discuss and put together the “four pieces” of the introduction part of a presentation:What about?How long?Main parts or sections Q & A? When?● Get Ss to take turns to give an introduction to their group members.● Encourage Ss to use expressions in Language Focus. Arouse awareness of language formality.● Ask a few students to give their introduction to the whole class.● Invite other Ss to note what they like or dislike about each introduction.● Give comments and suggestions for improvement.Pre-viewing● Divide Ss into group of three or four. Ask them to:☐rank the severity;☐compare their ranking with other group members;☐give explanations;☐change ranking if convinced.● Ask Ss to use different expressions of agreement and disagreement.● Make sure group members share time, and encourage the silent ones to jump in more often.● Ask one student to give his/her ranking before and after discussion. Explain the changes if there are any.● Encourage Ss to think of other factors that lead to failed presentations.5Post-viewingTask 1● Divide the class into groups of three.● Ask Ss to reorganise Joan Copper’s presentation in a logical and clear framework with the help of the flow chart.● Ask Ss to divide the presentation into three parts, i.e., beginning, body, conclusion, each group member dealing with one part.● Choose two or three groups to give complete presentations.● Invite other groups to give comments and suggestions for improvement.Task 2● Give Ss a few minutes to read the cards and get familiar with the given information.● Ss take turns to give the presentation and listeners give reminder when needed.● Circulate and monitor.● Emphasise the importance of delivery and body language.● Choose a few Ss to give the presentation in class.● Have a comment session where the class compares the performance.6Text Bank(扩展阅读)McDonald’s CorporationMcDonald’s is the leading global food service retailer with more than 30,000 local restaurants serving nearly 50 million people in more than 119 countries each day. It is one of the world’s most well-known and valuable brands and holds a leading share in the globally branded fast food segment of the informal restaurant market in virtually every country in which they do business. McDonald’s serves the world some of its favourite foods—world-famous French Fries, Big Mac, Quarter Pounder, Chicken McNuggets and Egg McMuffin.The first McDonald’s restaurant opened in Des Plaines, Illinois by McDonald’s Corporation founder, Ray Kroc, on April 15th, 1955. First day’s revenues—$366.12! In 1965, McDonald’s went public with the company’s first offering on the stock exchange. A hundred shares of stock costing $2,250 dollars that day would have multiplied into 74,360 shares today, worth over $1.8 million on December 31st, 2003, and almost $2.4 million on December 31st, 2004. In 1985 McDonald’s was added to the 30-company Dow Jones Industrial Average.McDonald’s has always been a franchising company and has relied on its franchisees to play a major role in its success. McDonald’s continually seeks qualified individuals to become franchisees, and has added approximately 100 new franchisees to the system each year for many years. There are an increasing number of restaurant opportunities available in small towns and in areas representative of a diverse customer base. An individual must have a minimum of $175,000 of non-borrowed personal assets to qualify financially.Now McDonald’s is popping up in more non-traditional locations like Amoco and Chevron stations, with full menu offerings and dining room seating, just like you’ll find in any traditional McDonald’s.Discussion:1. Have you ever eaten in McDonald’s restaurants? Do you like its food and service?2. Do you think McDonald’s needs to localise to achieve greater success in China?3. Can you suggest an ideal place in your city for a new McDonald’s restaurant? Why?7补充教学资源Video 1Making a startHello, and welcome to Standard Electronics. I’m Geoff Bolton, the Factory Manager in charge of the plant you’ll be seeing today. I know you have come a long way today, so we aim to make your tour both interesting and worthwhile. Before we start the tour, I’d like to give you a brief presentation about the company. It will last about 15 minutes and I’ll be using the flip chart. Since there’s quite a lot to cover, I’d be grateful if you’d hold any questions until the end of my talk.As you can see, I’ve divided up my presentation into three main parts. First of all, we’ll run briefly through the history of the company. Secondly, I’ll tell you something about our main markets—this is important in understanding the production process. And finally, I’ll come to the people—our most important asset.OK! Let’s start with the history. Standard Electronics started out as a private limited company when it was first established in 1985.Video 2What is the point?I’m sorry I’m a bit late... um... I’m not exactly sure how to start this... um... I suppose I should start by telling you something about the brewery... It’s old of course, very old, and... it was founded in 17... 1778. Yes, I think that’s right. So it’s a very old brewery and... um... we use traditional production methods and our products are very, very old... um... very traditional. Um... oh, we also do European type beer and, well, sales have increased a lot over the last year.Of course, we were a family firm. Well, in fact, we still are a family firm. As you know the present owner is Ralph Barrald... um... we continue to run as a family firm and this is important to the corporate image. Well, in fact, this is why we’re here today to discuss the corporate image and decide if we... well, if it needs to change. We also have horses... You may have seen them delivering the beer to the local pubs? Yes?Yes, yes... um... production has actually dropped a little over the last few years, although profits have actually gone up and that’s something we need to discuss... I mean can we continue as a small, independent brewery?8Anyway, that’s about it. So... um... that’s the main question today. So I don’t know whether that helps at all, but it’s all I can think of really, so I, I’ll leave... I’ll leave... I think that’s that, so I’ll leave it there, OK? Right?9。

Without creativity, we will not get the flash of inspiration and find the fourth word that the three unrelated words can share, and we will never be able to come up with so many creative ways that an everyday object like a chair, a coffee mug and a toothbrush can be used.The importance of creativity in our personal lives can’t be underestimated. Creativity is part of who we are and how we express ourselves in everyday life. Creativity is not something we are born with, nor is it necessarily a characteristic of high intelligence. It is a matter of using the resources we have to produce original ideas. Artists use creativity to express their ideas and visions through painting, wood carving, sculptures, graffiti, and photography, which provide us with visual feasts. Musicians, singers and songwriters use creativity to make music that touches us. Fashion designers use creativity to create clothes which make us look amazing. Scientists use creativity to invent things that facilitate our lives and change the world.Creativity is everywhere, in the food we eat, in the clothes we wear, in the places we visit, etc.With a creative eye, we find creative things, and with a creative mind, we create things.Listening and speakingNews reportScriptsA group of 30 prominent British and American scientists write an open letter to London’s The Guardian newspaper and say the current process for approving scientific studies is counterproductive and needs to be changed.In the letter, the scientists point out that almost all of the 500 major discoveries of the 20th century were started before 1970, and that many of those discoveries challenged the accepted science of the time and would probably not be funded today.They say that since then, researchers have had to make their academic peers believe the work would have enough benefits to justify the investment of time and money, which limits opportunities for open-ended research.The scientists note that before the 1970s, the funds available were small, but researchers were free to use the money however they saw fit. Nowadays, their proposals must include convincing evidence that the results would be beneficial for national policies.The 30 scientists are calling for a new effort to support independent-thinking researchers like the ones who made major discoveries in electronics, nuclear power, biotechnology, and medicine.Questions:1.Why did the scientists write the letter?2.What do we learn about the major discoveries in the 20th century?3.What kind of research is most likely to be funded today according to the scientists?4.Which of the following is not mentioned as an area where the scientists are calling forinvestment?Reference answersListening and understanding1. C2. A3. A4. BThinking and speakingThe importance of supporting research and development (R&D)The investment in R&D plays a significant role in the overall health and long-term sustainability of the economy of a nation. We think that in the next three to five years more investment should be made in basic research, core technologies, and interdisciplinary research.First, research is indispensable for innovation. General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedlystressed the importance of basic research as the source of innovation. Without basic research, there will be no innovation. And we think that more emphasis should be put on the training of basic research skills of the students in institutions of higher learning.Second, to solve the increasingly complex problems, such as climate change, environmental problems, and health problems, we think that more investment should be made in R&D, and the efforts made by researchers across various disciplines need to be united.Third, supporting D&R is good for a nation’s economy. R&D helps an industry to develop, design, and enhance its products, services, technologies, or processes. Continued advances in R&D are crucial to ensuring and increasing economic growth.Research areas to be supportedResearch areas that should be supported include but are not limited to:•space exploration•deep-sea exploration•biotechnology and medicine•(large-scale) integrated circuit•quantum technology•advanced manufacturing technologyConversationScriptsHost: Art and Business is an organization that develops creative partnerships between business and the arts. Peter Jones is going to talk about the company’s ideas. Peter,maybe you could begin by telling our listeners why Art and Business was created? Peter Jones:Well, in the 21st century, productivity is no longer just a matter of machines. The success of a company depends on the creativity of its people. The way to increaseproductivity is to stimulate creativity.Host: And what better way to stimulate creativity than through reading books?Peter Jones: Exactly. Every reader knows that a good book can stimulate the imagination and the intellect, get you thinking along lines you might not have thought of before, andopen up new worlds.Host: So, how can reading help somebody to become a more creative person?Peter Jones: Being creative needs active imaginations. When people interpret fictional scenarios, they are using their imagination. They combine imaginative skills with critical andanalytical skills.Host: Are we talking about the right and left sides of the brain?Peter Jones: Yes. Our logical left side of the brain interprets the language of a book. The creative right side looks at the forms of expression. The left side analyzes the plot while theright side is more interested in the relationships between characters –theemotional aspects.Host: How does this transfer to the world of business?Peter Jones: Creative ideas make businesses more competitive. Shared reading experiences improve creativity, communication, and morale at work.Questions:1. What is Art and Business?2. What does the success of a company depend on?3. What is the best way to stimulate creativity according to the man?4. What kind of books would the man most likely recommend?Reference answersListening and understanding11. D2. B3. A4. C21. F2. F3. T4. F5. TThinking and speakingArt and businessWe’d like to share two examples of integrating art and business.•Example 1Established in 2000, Artrade is a forerunner in e-business dealing in art works. Chinaware, painting and calligraphy, oil painting, coins, arts and crafts, rare collections, and all sorts of art works you can think of are available on the platform. Running 365 days a year and 24 hours a day, its annual sales volume reaches over 10 million yuan. While creating its own brand, Artrade has also witnessed the changes in the purchasing habits of the Chinese people.•Example 2We think Swarovski is a good example of integrating art and business. With the making of the best lead glass crystals in the world as their passion, and with a wide range of colors, forms, and sizes, Swarovski has been welcomed since 1895. It has infus ed people’s lives with glamour.Activities inspiring creativityActivities that inspire creativity include but are not limited to:•writing poetry and prose•playing and listening to music•doing photography•acting•participating in art projects•playing games•traveling•brainstorming•meditatingPassage 1ScriptsCreativity is our ability to look at a problem and come up with a good solution. It has nothing to do with the subject matter or the job. There are creative inventors, but there are also very creative cleaners and teachers. While all of us are creative, we differ in the way that we are and to which extent.Michael Kirton came up with the Adaptation-Innovation Theory. He believes that when we solve problems, we are either more adaptive or more innovative. People who are more adaptive-creative try to do things better. People who are more innovative-creative try to do things differently. For example, to solve the specific problem of smelly cat litter, more adaptive types look for a solution inside the box. They might try to let the cat create less smelly litter, then increase the size of the sand particles, and finally add some refreshing tropical scent. More innovative types think outside the litter box. They come up with cat diapers, cat schools for good manners, or a robocat.Since these two types of people are so different, can they work together in a team? Actually, research indicates that involving different types of people in problem-solving could add a new perspective and make people more careful of drawing fast conclusions or falling into groupthink. The result is a more intelligent problem-solving process.Questions:1. Which of the following is true of creativity, according to the speaker?2. What does Michael Kirton believe?3. Why does the speaker mention cat litter?4. What will happen when adaptive and innovative people work together?Reference answersListening and understanding11. B2. D3. D4. D21) better 2) differently 3) inside 4) increase 5) outside 6) cat schoolsThinking and speakingCharacteristics of adaptors and innovatorsI would see myself as an adaptor because I tend to accept a problem as defined and preferestablished and structured situations. I like things that are predictable, and often feel uncomfortable and even nervous when unexpected things happen. For example, I prefer optimizing my way of doing the school tasks to coming up with an entirely different method.At a time when change is the only predictable thing, I need to improve my way of thinking, my way of doing things, and adapt myself to the fast-changing world.•I think I am an innovator. I often find myself in conflict with the established system, and I hate to accept the generally accepted perception. I like taking risks and feel that a life without risks is not worth living. The innovative side of me is evidenced in my study of math.I often try to come up with different ways of solving a mathematical problem, and everytime I succeed, I have a great sense of achievement.Adaptors and Innovators in teamworkThe advantages and disadvantages of adaptors:Advantages:•ensuring stability and continuity•essential to the functioning of an institution all the time•able to maintain high accuracy in long spells of detailed work•seen as sound, safe and dependable•providing a safe base for the innovator’s risky operations•…Disadvantages:•blocking new initiatives•producing a sufficiency of ideas based solely on existing agreed definitions of the problem and possible solutions•focusing on improving things rather than changing things or doing things differently •…The advantages and disadvantages of innovators:Advantages:•pursuing changes to reconstruct a problem, separating it from accepted thought, paradigms, and customary viewpoints•focusing on doing things differently which will lead to creative and innovative ideas •able to discover problems and avenues for solution•encouraging corporate initiatives, such as new products, new accounting procedures •…Disadvantages:•treating accepted means with little regard in the pursuit of goals•showing little respect to past customs while challenging the rules•not helpful in maintaining certitude in face of opposition•…Passage 2ScriptsPart IEvery year on April 21, the UN celebrates World Creativity and Innovation Day to raise awarenessabout the role of creativity and innovation in all aspects of human development.The General Assembly of the United Nations adopted the resolution to celebrate World Creativity and Innovation Day on April 27, 2017. The UN chose April 21 as World Creativity and Innovation Day recognizing that “citizens and organizations in more than 50 countries around the world had already observed this day, which was first commemorated on April 21, 2002.” The first World Creativity and Innovation Day was observed in 2018.Part IINow the day has grown into a week. The website of World Creativity and Innovation Week says their mission is “to encourage people to use new ideas, make new decisions, and take the steps toward making the world better through creative thinking.”The UN says that innovation should be done keeping in mind every sector of the society. It lays emphasis on creativity and culture as they not only produce economic value, but also have a significant non-monetary value that contributes to inclusive social development, to dialog and understanding between peoples.It urges its member countries to make cultural and creative industries part of their economic growth strategies. The UN says, “These industries are among the most dynamic sectors in the world eco nomy, generating $2.25 billion in revenue and 29.5 million jobs worldwide.”Reference answersListening and understanding11. B2. D3. C21) use new ideas 2) making the world better 3) social development4) understanding 5) economic growthThinking and speakingThe contribution of creative industriesCreative industries include a wide variety of industries, such as advertising, architecture, art, design, film and video, interactive leisure software, music, performing arts, television and radio. Creative industries are growing in economic importance for industrialized and post-industrialized nations. The production of lifestyles, cultural experiences, fantasies and images are coming to replace objects and things as the locus of the consumer society.As we can see from the first graph, creative industries accounted for an ever-increasing percentage of the GVA of the DCMS Sectors in UK economy between the years 2011 and 2017, nearly six percent in 2017. Also, the creative industries are a major source of dynamic job creation, providing over six percent of employment opportunities in 2017, as is shown in the second graph.Creative industries in China are also experiencing rapid growth due to a combination of state-owned and private-sector investment. Statistics show a steady increase in the contribution of creative industries to China’s GDP between the years 2011 and 2019, accounting for more than 4% in 2019, totaling nearly 4.14 trillion yuan. I believe that with the development of digital economy, an even faster growth of creative industries can be expected.Viewing and speakingScriptsHey, guys, I hope you’re all doing well and welcome to this week’s video. How good is your thinking game? Stay tuned as we discuss tips that you can use to be an outstanding thinker. Think outside the box is one of the most worn-out business and personal development clichés.While the urge to think outside the box is held in high esteem, it’s evident that there’s an apparent disconnect between what people say they’ll do and what they actually do. How many times have you seen people think outside the box? More importantly, how many times do you think outside the box? In simple terms, thinking outside the box can be described as thinking beyond the norm or being a nonconformist. Put simply, thinking outside the box does not mean that you need to defy gravity. It simply means that you need to be innovative with your ideas and solutions.In today’s video, we’re gonna discuss tips that you can use to think outside the box both in business and beyond.One, learn how to question the status quo regularly. Since childhood, we are bombarded with systems of doing things. We are told that we should go to school, work hard, get good grades, go to college and get that dream job. However, over the years, it’s be come evident that this system of life doesn’t work for everyone. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t go to school and perform well. Education is important. However, sometimes you need to question the norm and learn to ask why. If someone presents you with in formation that you don’t understand, you should challenge yourself to read more and question more.Two, expand your knowledge. We often wound up following the same path due to limited knowledge. To expose your brain to different ideas, you need new knowledge. There are several ways to do this. You can choose to take a class in a different industry. You can also try learning a new culture to help you relate to different people around the world. Lastly, you can read books and novels outside your usual genre to stimulate your mind.Three, mind mapping. Mind mapping is a technique that allows you to map out an idea. Essentially, you’ll have the central concept in the middle of the map, and then expand the idea outwards into other boxes. For instance, I need to create a new blog about digital marketing. Since it was the main idea, I put it in the main box. I then drew other boxes connected to the main idea with different aspects of digital marketing, such as social media marketing, email marketing, content marketing, affiliate marketing, SEO, among other things. I then broke downeach element into smaller branches until they turned into topics I could work with. With my simple mind map, I discovered an easy way to expand an idea.Four, draw an image. Visualize the problem you are facing and draw images to help you solve it. With an image, you can map out all the aspects of your issues and write down solutions to each element. For instance, maybe you have several bills to pay that all have different deadlines. You can draw a box with all the bills you have to pay and accompanying dates. Then have another box with all the income you have coming in on specific dates. As you look at both boxes, you’ll have an easier time remembering everything you need to pay and match it to a date when you have enough income to afford the bill.Five, think like a competitor. Thinking like a competitor in business is extremely beneficial. For this exercise, I would encourage you to have a brainstorming session. Ask yourself or (your) team to think like a competitor by pointing out some of the weaknesses you see in the business and possible solutions for the problems. You can also get ideas for new trends in the industry your business should take advantage of to stay ahead. This tech nique also works in one’s personal life.What are your thoughts on thinking outside the box? Share your comments, and let’s learn from each other.Questions:1. What is the aim of the video clip?2. Which of the following is considered a proper example of thinking out of the box?3. Which field is this video clip mainly targeted at?4. Which of the following is a way of questioning the status quo?5. What are the audience encouraged to do at the end of the video clip?Reference answersViewing and understanding11. C2. B3. A4. A5. D21) challenge yourself 2) different industry 3) new culture 4) central concept5) expand the idea 6) Visualize 7) aspects 8) weaknesses9) new trends 10) stay aheadThinking and speakingCreating a creative atmosphere on campusTo create an atmosphere in which there is no risk in being creative – a place where wild ideas are honored and valued, a harmonious and relaxed atmosphere that inspires students’ innovative thinking, we can:•develop extracurricular activities that encourage creativity and innovation•embed creativity and innovative thinking into the curriculum or course syllabuses•expose students to various creative ideas and projects•inspire students to ask questions, try new things and apply ideas to practical situations •use a mind map more often in the classroom to encourage creativity by stimulating the brain to think in different patterns•…Learning to think outside the boxStep 1•I find the five tips helpful, especially the first two. Nowadays we are too often inclined to believe the accepted norms and follow them. We tend to stay in the comfort zone and do what the others do. This is harmful, and even dangerous. We should keep reminding ourselves that the world is advancing and things are changing, what was appropriate and correct in the past may not be appropriate and correct today. We need to develop critical thinking and question the status quo, especially when we find something we don’t understand or feel confused about. And to update ourselves on the progress in every field, we need to expand our knowledge through more reading, more listening, and more communication with people from different sectors and from different cultural backgrounds.•I like mind mapping and I often practice it. I once read an article and learned that mind mapping was created by Tony Buzan, a leading expert on the brain and learning, and co-founder of the World Memory Championships. A mind map is ideal for brainstorming, planning, information gathering, data presentation, and many other uses. It helps us break down complex topics into smaller, more understandable chunks, and it is great for sharing information and understanding complex topics. What makes a mind map so effective is that it allows us to use both sides of our brain.•I find Tip 4, drawing an image, very useful and I practice it quite often, especially when there are many deadlines I have to meet. I usually make a list of the things that I have to do along with the deadlines. I will then try to prioritize things. In this way, I manage to finish all the things in time.•In my view, the last tip, thinking like a competitor, is not only useful in the business world, but also in sports and other fields. I remember a time in high school when we were taking part in the school table tennis competition. We were lucky enough to enter the final. Our rival team was very strong, being the champion for the previous three years. We knew that there was one very strong player in the rival team who could beat any of us. We spent a long time thinking about how they would arrange their players and how to arrange the players of ours accordingly, and we succeeded in getting our weakest player playing with their strongest one. Their strongest one was wasted in a sense. We won the champion! Our excitement was beyond words and until now I can recall the disappointment on the faces of our rival team.Step 2•being open to dissenting opinions•changing the direction of thinking•meeting people with diverse experiences, views and backgrounds•developing positive emotions to broaden our attention and explore our environment •taking a few moments to think about the beautiful things in our life•asking questions like “What would I do differently if I were starting from scratch?”•…Pronunciation1.

Your answer could reveal how creative you are.Michigan State University scientist Jeremy Gray has developed a simple word test to measure creativity. It’s described in the journal Behavior Research Methods.His team showed 193 participants a series of nouns and asked them to respond creatively to each with a verb. “Chair” –for example –could elicit “sit”... or more creatively, “stand.” The participants were also asked to write stories and draw pictures. Those who gave creative answers on the noun-verb test were also judged the most creative in the more traditional areas.Gray and his team are now giving the noun-verb test to participants while they are in an MRI machine to try to identify the parts of the brain that light up when creativity is called for. Their findings could eventually help students, entrepreneurs, scientists, and anyone who depends on innovative thinking.Questions:1. Why did Jeremy Gray develop the simple word test?2.

I’m worried thathe’ll be angry with me for not having a physical ex amination for so long. W:Which is more important, the doctor’s feelings or your health? You’d better go if you want to make sure everything is all right with you.It seems that the man worries more about the doctor’s feelings than his own health.2. W: Oh, I’ve got a cold. I’m not used to the cold weather, and it often gets thebest of me. What I need now is some good medicine.M:The best medicine is to keep healthy. I promise you that if you get involved with some sort of physical exercise, you’ll get si ck a lot less.Why don’t you try joining a gym?The woman catches cold easily and believes in taking some good medicine, but the man thinks physical exercise is more important.3. W:Exams are coming up soon. I’ve been so busy with schoolwork that I’vehad a lot of trouble sleeping.M: School is important, but so is your health. Maybe you should talk to a doctor. Doctors see people all the time for this very problem. They can help you.The woman has been so busy with schoolwork that she has had difficulty sleeping. The man believes that health is important that she should see a doctor.4. M: Do you mind if I have a cigarette before we eat?W:Well, actually, I do. If you don’t mind, could you smoke outside? If you want to poison your body and shorten your li fe, that’s your business. But as for me, I want to live long and healthy.M:Don’t you think you’re being a bit too careful?W: Not at all. Studies have shown that second-hand smoke causes cancer too. The woman asks the man to smoke outside because she wants to live long and healthy. She believes second-hand smoke causes cancer too.5. W: Robert, when we last talked, you promised there would be less televisionand junk food, and more exercise in your life. But now you’re becoming quite overweight.M: I know it’s bad, but I really like watching TV. After all we should enjoy ourselves while we are young.W:But you’re risking your health watching TV so much.M:Oh, yes: heart trouble, high blood pressure. But I’d rather die than give up TV.The man once promised he would watch TV less, eat less junk food and have more exercise.But he believes it is more important to enjoy himself, although the woman says he’s risking his health watching TV so much.Ⅲ. Listening InTask 1: DietsIf you’re a young lady in yo ur twenties, you may be either on a diet or wondering which diet to follow. Indeed, people are so concerned with their appearance that the word “diet” has lost its original meaning. It now has the same meaning as “weight loss diet”. There was a time when w omen bound their waists to have a nice figure. Then came Twiggy, a British supermodel most famous in the 1960s, and since then everyone has wanted to look like a twig. Because of this trend, many diets have become popular. It is not uncommon to meet young girls who look weak enough to be blown away in the wind, yet they are still talking about diets! However, extreme diets can lead to health problems. Many such dieters may end up with very serious eating disorders. Princess Diana suffered from an excessively strong appetite; Karen Carpenter, a popular singer of the 1970s, died of the loss of appetite. You should know that looking good is important but not when it comes at the risk of your health and life. Better eating habits and proper exercise are all you need to be fit and look good.1. A2.C3.B4.B5.CTask 2: Culture Shock(D=Doctor; S=Student)D: Hello, I’m Dr. Black. How’re you feeling?S: I’m not feeling well, doctor.D: What seems to be the problem?S: I don’t know. I just feel tired all the time. I want to sleep all day. I’m not interested in studying or being with people.D: How long had this been going on?S: Almost one month now.D: Are there any other symptoms?S: I’m just tired.D: Do you have many friends?S: I don’t really have many here. I’m an international student.D: I imagine that many things about your life here are different from your home.S:Yeah, my life’s changed a lot. Foods, customs, socializing…even body language and gestures are all different from those in my own country.D: How long have you lived here?S:Almost three months now. It seems much longer; it’s a struggle for me to get used to the new way of life here.D:Hmm. Well, let’s check you over. (a few minutes later) Well, I don’t see anything physically wrong with you. Your heart is strong. Lungs are clear.Your blood pressure is normal.S: Then what do you think is wrong with me, doctor?D: Your problem seems to be culture shock. Sometimes when people move to a new location, especially a new country, they experience culture shock.Sometimes this culture shock can be serious, and people become very depressed. I suggest that you try to spend some time each week with people from your own culture.S: But my teachers tell me to speak English all the time.D: I understand, but right now we need to deal with your symptoms. Follow my advice, and you’ll feel better.S: How long does this last?D: Culture shock lasts for a while and then begins to disappear. The length of time varies from person to person. If you aren’t feelin g better in two or three weeks, please call me again.1.The student feels tired all the time, wants to sleep all day, and is notinterested in studying or being with people.2.Many things in the student’s life have changed, such as foods, customs,socializing, and even body language and gestures.3.Because the student’s heart, and blood pressure are all normal.4.Sometimes when people move to a new location, especially a new country,they experience culture shock.5.The doctor suggests that the student try to spend some time each week withpeople from her own culture.Task 3: The FluThere’s nothing gradual about the flu: it hits you like a hammer. One minute you’re feeling fine, and the next you can be shivering, burning up, and then shivering again. In minutes, your legs become weak and your body aches in places that have never hurt before. Influenza can break out so suddenly that people can sometimes say, “It hit me at exactly 9 last night.” But whether the flu strikes at night or on the bus to school, there’s just one thing a victim wants to do: lie down in bed. A healthy person can fight off the flu in three to five days, though a cough and tired feeling can last two more weeks. But often an attack of the flu is followed by another illness. Doctors recommend that old people, or people of any age with heart or lung problems, get a flu vaccineevery year. Because flu viruses change all the time, a new vaccine must be prepared each year to protect against future attacks.hit minute shivering legs ache lie lasts followed lung vaccine protectTask 4: An Announcementmake an appointment checkup cancellation 3 o’clock 3:30 Thursday.Ⅳ. Speaking OutModel 1: Everything will be OK Now Your Turn.James: Hello, Nicky! Are you feeling better today?Nicole: Well, the fever is gone, but I’m still feeling weak. You know, I can’t take it easy any longer. I’m worried about my classes and the co mingbiology exam—it’s an important test.James:Don’t worry. Everything will be OK. Are you still taking the medicine? Nicole:Yeah. I’m following the doctor’s orders, but I hate taking pills. You can’t be sure about the side effects.James: I know what you mean. Some medicines are not safe.Nicole: You could say that again.Model 2: Is it serious, doctor? Now Your Turn.Doctor:Well, John, your blood pressure is a bit high. Is there a history of that in your family?John:Is it serious, doctor? My grandpa died of a stroke.Doctor:Your condition is not that bad. But you have to take care. More rest, less work.John:Do I have to drop some classes? The trouble is that my class schedule is so tight this semester.Doctor: Take it easy.

I’m afraid of the oral presentation tomorrow. Katherine:There’s really no reason to be worried. You’ve practiced it so often with me that even I know it.Sarah:But I can’t help worrying. I’ll get nervous when I speak in public. Katherine: I know. When I did my first oral presentation, I went through the same thing. You’ll be fine.Ⅴ. Let’s TalkDoctor:Well, your test results are back, Jim. Your blood tests are fine.Everything seems OK.Jim:Huh. I still don’t have any energy, and I get headaches all the time.Doctor: Mm. I see your weight is 180 pounds. You’ve gained five pounds since your last visit. That’s a little too much for your weight.Jim:That’s funny. I’ve been eating the same as always.Doctor: I think maybe we should talk about dietJim:Oh, well, I mean…now I eat the things students usually eat at school. Doctor: The usual things?Jim:Yeah, you know. In the morning, I grab a few doughnuts and a coffee on the way to school.Doctor: Uh-huh. And for lunch?Jim:Uh, a couple of hot dogs, fries, and a Coke…maybe an ice cream on the way back.Doctor: And dinner?Jim:Pizza, and a Coke.Doctor: What about exercise?Jim:Exercise? I’m just not into exercise. I just like to watch sports on TV.Anyway I wouldn’t have time for exercise…too much homework, you know.Doctor: You should change your eating habits before you have a serious weight problem.

Here you are!Ⅵ. Furthering Listening and SpeakingListeningTask 1: Medical Services on CampusWhile every university in America has its own policies and creates its own rules, most provide some type of medical service or health insurance for students, especially large universities. If students have a cold, or other illnesses, they can see a doctor, and they may also seek medical advice on a range of issues. Free testing for STDs such as HIV is a major part of disease prevention—sharing important information about the epidemic. If students need a major operation or procedure, they must seek outside assistance, but the school may help them make the arrangements. Smaller universities and colleges are not likely to provide in-depth medical assistance; they usually deal with small problems in housing, and assist students to take care of major issues off campus. No medical services are offered in universities and colleges that do not have students living on campus.1. medical service health insurance2. medical advice3. operation outside make the arrangements4. medical assistance housing off campus5. living on campusTask 2: An Expensive TreatmentSteven had a temperature of 100. His head was stuffed; his bones ached and his throat was sore. He knew he had the flu. All his roommates had been sick with it. He had used up all the special creams and herbs that his mother hadcarefully packed and put in his suitcase, saying, “Just in case you get sick.” After three days of lying in bed, feeling miserable, Steven decided to go to the doctor. He described all his symptoms and was sure the doctor would give him a shot that would make him feel much better. Instead, the doctor told him to get plenty of rest and to drink lots of liquids. She gave him a prescription to fill and said in two or three days he would be feeling better. As he left, the receptionist told him his visit would cost $50. Steven paid the money in cash and left the doctor’s office feeling very angry1. F2.T3.F4.F5.TTask 3: Doctor’s AdviceOnce an old gentleman went to see a doctor.

Go to a quiet country place for a month, go to bed early, drink milk, walk a lot, and smoke just one cigar a day.”“Thank you very much,” said the old gentleman, “I shall do everything you say.”A month later, the gentleman came to the doctor again, “How do you do!” said the doctor, “I am very glad to see you. You look much younger.”“Oh, doctor,” said the gentleman, “I feel quite well now. I had a good rest.I went to bed early. I drank a lot of milk. I walked a lot. Your advice certainly helped me. But you told me to smoke one cigar a day, and that one cigar almost killed me at first. It’s no joke to start smoking at my age.”1.D2.B3.A4.B5.D。

Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Medical Services on CampusWhile every university in America has its own policies and creates its own rules, most provide some type of medical service or health insurance for students, especially large universities. If students have a cold, or other illnesses, they can see a doctor, and they may also seek medical advice on a range of issues. Free testing for STDs such as HIV is a major part of disease prevention prevention——sharing important information about the epidemic. If students need a major operation or procedure, they must seek outside assistance, but the school may help them make the arrangements. Smaller universities and colleges are not likely to provide in-depth medical assistance; they usually deal with small problems in housing, and assist students to take care of major issues off campus. No medical services are offered in universities and colleges that do not have students living on campus.1. medical servicehealth insurance 2. medical advice 3. operation outsidemake the arrangements 4. medical assistance housingoff campus 5. living on campusTask 2: An Expensive TreatmentSteven had a temperature of 100.

Listening InTask 1: David Copperfield is coming.W:My brother is going to pick up some tickers for the David Copperfield show. You interested in coming with us?M:I don’t know.

David Copperfield is the world’s greatest magician;he’s certainly worth a look.M:Actually, I have seen him on television. He pulls off some pretty amazing stunts. I wish I knew how he performed his tricks. ThenI could also make a person float in the air. I could pull a rabbitout of my hat. I could escape from a straitjacket and handcuffs—all underwater. And I could saw a woman in half.W: A magician never tells his secrets. David attempts the impossible and no one has any idea how he does it. I saw himon TV when he walked through the Great Wall of China.M:How could he do that?W: I have no idea, but I know what I saw: He entered a canvas shelter on one side of the wall, and he came out of a canvasshelter on the other side.M:yes, bur was he always in full view of the camera, or did they cut to a commercial or something else?W:Not only was the camera running all the time, but he was hooked up a heart monitor, and you could track his progress ashe moved through the wall.M:It’s difficult to know what to believe.

She thinks Davis Copperfield in the world’s greatest magician and he’s certainly worth a look.Task 2: Is it really bad luck?ScriptAre you worried because you have just broken a mirror? Some people believe that breaking a mirror is a (S1) terrible thing to do. They say it will bring you seven years of (S2) misfortune. The reason behind this belief stems the old idea that a person’s soul is in their (S3) reflection, so that if you smash your mirror, you soul will be (S4) damaged too, dooming you do an early death, and not giving you entry to (S5) heaven. Is there any way to reverse this bad luck? Yes—if you very carefully (S6) pick up all the broken pieces of the mirror and throw them into a river or stream, then the bad luck will be”(S7) washed away”..Of all number, 13 is the most associated with bad luck. (S8) Some people claim that the number is bad luck because thirteen people sat down for the Last Supper before Jesus was crucified, and with this in mind few hosts will serve dinner with thirteen at the table. And according to an ancient Norwegian tale, twelve gods had gathered for a feast when a thirteenth, Loke, entered. After the meal, Loke killed Balder, who was themost beloved of all the gods.(S9) Friday the thirteenth of any month is considered especially bad or unlucky, and Friday the thirteenth of March is the worst of the all.The number seven also has some superstition connected to it. It is said that God created the world in seven days, and any association with the number is luck. The seventh son of the seventh son is said to be the luckiest of men, and (S10) When people talk about the “seven-year itch”they mean that every seven years a person undergoes a complete change in personality.Task3: The Status on Easter IslandScriptOne of the greatest mysteries on Earth is the statues on Easter Island. The island is one of the most remote places on Earth, located in the southern Pacific Ocean. It was almost uninhabited when it was discovered on Easter Day in 1722 by a Dutch captain, but it is covered with hundreds of giant statues, each weighing several tons and some standing more than30 feet tall.Who carved these statures, and how and why were they put there? Nobody knows the answer for sure, but many ate trying to find out. There are many theories to explain this mystery. It has even been suggested the space aliens may have played a role regarding these giant statues. Another theory relates to the fact that Easter Island was inhabited by Polynesian seafarers, who traveled thousand of miles in their canoes, guided by the stars, the color of sky and the sun , the shapes of clouds, and the presence of birds making flights out to sea seeking food. The Polynesians first arrived on the island in 499A.D.However, the ocean currents which carried them there would mot take them back. They were trapped and, having arrived there, could not leave. The Polynesians probable cared the statues themselves, perhaps as religious symbols.To date, 887 statues have been discovered on the island. However, only a few statues were carried intended destination. The rest were abandoned along the way.The statues appear to have been carved out of the top edge of walls of a volcano on the island. After a statue was carved, it may have been rolled or dragged down to the base of the volcano. Then it was put upright, and ropes were tied around it. Using a pulley system, the statue was moves to its intended destination.At its peak, the population of Eater Island is believed to have reached 11,000. Eventually, the resources of the island were exhausted, and the people resorted to cannibalism, eating one another. Work on the statues stopped and the statues were knocked over. When the first Europeans finally arrived on the island, most of the people lad died out.1.When and by whom was the island discovered?2.Who are mentioned in the passage as possible builders of thestatues?3.What is true of the Polynesians on the island according to thepassage?4.How many statues ere carried to their intended destination?5. Which of the following would be the most suitable title for thepassage?Keys: 1A 2.B3. D 4.D 5BFor ReferenceThe resources of the island were exhausted, and the people resorted to cannibalism, eating each other. When the first Europeans finally arrived on the island, most of the people lad died out.IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1This is a custom that dates back to the ancient Celts. Chris: Sue, do you know why people say, “knock on wood”when they want to avoid bad luck?Susan:It sounds a bit funny. As far as I know,it has a lot to do with ancient Celtic people. They worshipped trees.Chris: Sounds interesting.Susan: They thoughts trees would suck demons back into the ground. Chris: Well, when you think about the deep roots, their belief seems to make some senses.Susan:What’s more, knocking on wood was a way to brag without being punished. People once thought that evil spirits wouldbecome jealous if good fortune was pointed out to them Chris: Uh, yes, go on.Susan: well, by knocking on wood three times, the noise couldfrightened away the evil spirits, and they couldn’t have to rob thebraggart of that good fortuneChris:I’m afraid those who don’t know this superstition might be frightened away as well.Susan: Now here’s a test. Do you know how the custom of kissing under the mistletoe originated?Chris:I haven’t the slightest idea, but I’m all ears.Susan: Again this is a custom that dates back to the ancient Celts. Since they worshipped trees, they conducted many of theirceremonies in the woods in the shade of trees.Chris: Now I see. Probably it’s under these mistletoe trees that weddings took place.Susan: I wish you were standing under some mistletoe right now. Chris: Luckily I’m not. Touch wood.MODEL2 Is there any relationship between superstitions and real life?ScriptChris: It’s strange that so many people are superstitious. There must besome relationship between superstitions and real life.Susan:You know, Richard Wiseman, a British psychologist researched the relationship between superstition and luck.Chris: What did he find? Most people would be interested. At least I wouldSusan:He polled ,000 people and fond that people who believe themselves to be lucky tend to go for positive superstitions .They may wear a ring as a talisman or often say,”touch wood”for good luck.Chris: Then, what about the unlucky people? Do you mean if they think they ate unlucky, they tend to believe in superstitions abut bad luck.Susan: Yeah. They worry a lot about a broken mirror, a black cat running across their path, and so on.Chris: So what is his point?Susan: His point is that people make their own luck by their attitude to life. So, 49 percent of lucky people regularly cross their fingers, compared to 30 percent of unlucky people. And only 18 percent of lucky people are anxious if they break a mirror.Chris: So, our fate is linked to our attitude rather than to our superstitions.Susan: I think that’s what he is suggesting.Chris: This research seems too complicates. If I were a psychologist, I would conduct a survey to find whether 13 really is an unlucky number. I f there ere traffic accidents or murders on the 13th than on other days, then we have to believe in superstitions.Susan: What if there weren’t?Chris: Then I wouldn’t be superstitious.Susan: What a brilliant idea! I never expected you to be as wise as Solomon.Chris: Well as long as you don’t think I’m a fool.MODEL3 I believe ETs have visited the earth before. ScriptNora: Hey, what’s this picture of yours? It looks like a flying saucer. Chris: It is. I was visited by aliens last week and this is a picture of their spacecraft.Nora: When I look closer, it resembles a liver Frisbee.Chris: But it could have been aliens. I believe ETs have visited the earth befor e. What do you think?Nora:It would be hard to believe otherwise. Projects like the pyramidsare difficult to explain away, given the level of technology that was available at the timeChris: That’s for sure. They are mysterious.Nora:When you consider all those “impossibilities, it’s tempting to infer that some highly advanced civilization assisted humans in their construction.Chris: Think about this: if you were abducted by aliens and taken up to their spaceship or something …well…Nora: What do you mean?Chris: I mean, who would believe you? You’d go nuts telling everyone: “It’s true! I was abducted by aliens!”Nora: And everyone would think you were crazy, or just making up a story to get attention.Chris: From what I understand,sometimes these people do go crazy, trying to convince people about their experiences.Nora: I believe that in some cases they offer pretty good evidence. Chris: So, take a closer look at this picture. Do you still think it’s a Frisbee?Now Your TurnTask 1SAMPLE DIALOGSimon: Eliza, do you know why people say”keep your fingers crossed”when they want to wish others luck?Eliza: It sounds a bit funny. As far as I know, it’s a lot to do with an ancient Christian belief.Simon: Uh, go on.Eliza:In the Christian belief “making the sign of the cross”would keep away evil spirits and bad luck.Simon: I see. When you think about the cross, sign of Christianity, that belief seems to make some sense.Eliza:That’s true. That’s why children often cross their fingers when they tell a small lie. They want to keep bad luck away, or toavoid being punished.Simon: Sounds interesting. So, I’ll cross my fingers for you before you take the final examination.Eliza:Thank you.Simon: But those who don’t understand this superstition might be puzzledEliza:With interesting communications among nations, more and more people can understand it now.V. Let’s TalkScriptThanks, perhaps, to falling stock markets and unrest in the Middle East, Britons have become even more superstitious than usual, according to a report published today. “There has been a significant increase in superstition over the last month, possible as a result of current economic and political uncertainties,”stated Dr. Dick Armstrong. He launched an Internet Survey of national superstition, and found it to be surprisingly high, even among those with a scientific background. Only more in ten of those surveyed claimed not to be superstitious at all. Three out of four people in Britain feel the need to touch wood, and 65% cross their fingers.It is interesting to note that lucky people were much less superstitious and tended to take constructive action to improve their lives. Conversely, superstitious people tended to regard themselves as among the less lucky, worried about life, had a strong need for control, and could not tolerate ambiguity.The survey also revealed some unexpected beliefs. For example, one respondent could not stay in the bathroom once a toilet had been flushed.There was no evidence that superstitious ever worked, even, when people were instructed to carry lucky charms for a week. They didn’t feelany luckier or more stratified with their lives at the end of that week than when they started.Armstrong attempted to explain this phenomenon: “When students are preparing for exams with a lucky charm, they may trust the charm, rather than doing some extra revision.”Reasons foeMore Superstitions Thanks, perhaps, to falling stock markets and unrest in the Middle East, Britons have become even more superstitious than usualWho are more superstitious?Lucky people were much less superstitious and tended to take constructive action to improve their lives.

Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: Horseshoes as a Sign of Good LuckScriptHorseshoes are a traditional sign of good luck. Most people believe this comes from the fact that the horseshoe is shaped like the crescent moon, a period of prosperity and good fortune. One legend has it that the Devil was in disguise and wandering at large, looking for trouble. He happened to call on St. Dunstan, who ea skilled in shoeing horses. St. Dunstan recognized the Devil and tied him to a wall with only his feet free to move. He then set to work shoeing him as though he were a horse, but with such roughness the Devil cried out for mercy. St. Dunstan stopped his work and released the Devil after making him promise never to enter a home on which a horseshoe was fixed. Witches fear horses, so they are also turned away by a door with a horseshoe mounted on it. The big issue regarding horseshoes is whether they should be hung points up or points down.The original superstition was that the horseshoe is points up to keep the luck from pouring out. Despite this view most buildings with horseshoes in their sign hang them the opposite way. The Horseshoe Casino in LasVegas hangs its horseshoe with the arc on top.

The friend has a habit of looking at every situation in his life and saying, “This is good!”One day the king and his friend were out hunting. The friend would load and prepare the guns for the king. The friend had apparently done something wrong in preparing one of the guns, for after taking the gun from his friend, the king fired it and his thumb was blown off. Examining the situation, the friend remarked as usual, “This is good!”to which the king replied, “No, this is NOT good!”and proceeded to send his friendto jail.About a year later, the king was hunting in an area that he should have known to stay clear of. Cannibals captured him and took him to their village. They tied him to a stake surrounded by wood. As they came near to set fire to the wood, they noticed that the king had but one thumb. Being superstitious, they never ate anyone that was less than whole. So they set the king free.As he returned home, he was reminded of the event that had taken his thumb off and felt badly sorry about his treatment of his friend. He went immediately to the jail to speak with his friend. “You were right,”he said, “it was good for my thumb was blown off.”Then he apologized, “I’m very sorry for sending you to jail for so long. It was bad for me to do this.”“No,”his friend replied, “this is good!”“What do you mean, ‘this is good’? How could it be good that I sent you, my good friend, to jail for all this time?”“If I had not been in jail, I would have been with you—and eaten.!”For Reference1.He had a habit of looking at every situation in his life and saying,“This is good!”2.After taking the gun, the king fired it and his thumb was blown off.3.They set the king free, because being superstitious, they never ateanyone that was less than whole4.He felt sorry for his friend and went to the jail to apologize to him.5.

This district covers part of the ground that used to be the ancient city of Heliopolis. The owner of the land was seeking construction rights and by law, construction cannot begin without a permit certifying that the site has no historical significance.The first of the two limestone tombs to be opened contained a sarcophagus and sixteen statuettes, said the chief state archaeologist for the Cairo-Giza area, Zahi Hawass.Hawass said in a statement that the tombs were found in a d owntown residential area, three meters below the ground.[SOUND BITE]Hawass went on to give a more detailed account of the important find. [SOUND BITE]It appears that the tombs have not been raided by grave robbers, but they have been damaged by leaking sewage water.The first tomb to be uncovered belonged to a builder named Waja-Hur. His name was engraved on the statuettes, which the ancient Egyptians placed in tombs to answer questions for them in the afterlife.Te process of recovering these artifacts can be long and tedious, but thehistorical significance of these pieces makes the painstaking work worthwhile.[SOUND BITE]Egyptian archaeologists plan to open the second tomb on Sunday.。

II. Listening SkillsListening to People Talk About Health1.M: I haven’t been to see my doctor for a very long time. I’m worried that he’ll be angry with me for not havinga physical examination for so long.W: Which is more important, the doctor’s feelings or your health? You’d better go if you want to make sure everything is all right with you.It seems that the man worries more about the doctor’s feelings than his own health.2.W: Oh, I’ve got a cold. I’m not used to the cold weather, and it often gets the best of me. What I need now issome good medicine.M: The best medicine is to keep healthy. I promise you that if you get involved with some sort of physical exercise, you’ll get sick a lot less. Why don’t you try joining a gym?The woman catches cold easily and believes in taking some good medicine, but the man thinks physical exercise is more important.3.W: Exams are coming up soon. I’ve been so busy with schoolwork that I’ve had a lot of trouble sleeping.M: School is important, but so is your health. Maybe you should talk to a doctor. Doctors see people all the time for this very problem. They can help you.The woman has been so busy with schoolwork that she has had difficulty sleeping. The man believes that health is important that she should see a doctor.4. M: Do you mind if I have a cigarette before we eat?W: Well, actually, I do. If you don’t mind, could you smoke outside? If you want to poison your body and shorten your life, that’s your business. But as for me, I want to live long and healthy.The woman asks the man to smoke outside because she wants to live long and healthy. She believes second-hand smoke causes cancer too.5. W: Robert, when we last talked, you promised there would be less television and junk food, and more exercise in your life.But now you’re becoming quite overweight.M: I know it’s bad, but I really like watching TV. After all we should enjoy ourselves while we are young.W: But you’re risking your health watching TV so much.M: Oh, yes: heart trouble, high blood pressure. But I’d rather die than give up TV.The man once promised he would watch TV less, eat less junk food and have more exercise. But he believes it is more important to enjoy himself, although the woman says he’s risking his health watching TV so much.III. Listening InTask 1: DietsIf you’re a young lady in your twenties, you may be either on a diet or wondering which diet to follow. Indeed, people are so concerned with their appearance that the word “diet”has lost its original meaning. It now has the same meaning as “weight loss diet”. There was a time when women bound their waists to have a nice figure. Them came Twiggy, a British supermodel most famous in the 1960s, and since then everyone has wanted to look like a twig. Because of this trend, many diets have become popular. It is not uncommon to meet young girls who look weak enough to be blown away in the wind, yet they are still talking about diets! However, extreme diets can lead to health problems. Many such dieters may end up with very serious disorders. Princess Diana suffered from an excessively strong appetite; Karen Carpenter, a popular singer of the 1970s, died of the less of appetite. You should know that looking good is important but not when it comes at he risk of your health and life. Better eating habits and proper exercise are all you need to be fit and look good.1.A2.C3.B4.B5.CTask 2: Culture Shock(D=Doctor; S=Student)D: Hello, I’m Dr. Black. How’re you feeling?S: I’m not feeling well, doctor.D: What seems to be the problem?S: I don’t know. I just feel tired all the time. I want to sleep all day. I’m not interested in studying or being with people.D: How long had this been going on?S: Almost one month now.D: Are there any other symptoms?S: I’m just tired.D: Do you have many friends?S: I don’t really have many here. I’m an international student.D: I imagine that many things about your life here are different from your home.S: Yeah, my life’s changed a lot. Foods, customs, socializing…even body language and gestures are all different from those in my own country.D: How long have you lived here?S: Almost three months now. It seems much linger; it’s a struggle for me to get used to the new way of life here.D: Hmm. Well, let’s check you over. (a few minutes later) Well, I don’t see anything physically wrong with you. Your heart is strong. Lungs are clear. Your blood pressure is normal.S: Then what do you think is wrong with me, doctor?D:Your problem seems to be culture shock. Sometimes when people move to a new location, especially a new country, they experience culture shock. Sometimes this culture shock can be serious, and people become very depressed. I suggest that you try to spend some time each week with people from your own culture.S: But my teachers tell me to speak English all the time.D: I understand, but right now we need to deal with your symptoms. Follow my advice, and you’ll feel better.S: How long does this last?D: Culture shock lasts for a while and then begins to disappear. The length of time varies from person to person. If you aren’t feeling better in two or three weeks, please call me again.1.The student feels tired all the time, wants to sleep all day, and is not interested in studying or being with people.2.Many things in the student’s life have changed, such as foods, customs, socializing, and even body language and gestures.3.Because the student’s heart, and blood pressure are all normal.4.Sometimes when people move to a new location, especially a new country, they experience culture shock.5.The doctor suggests that the student try to spend some time each week with people from her own culture.Task 3: The FluThere’s nothing gradual about the flu: it hits you like a hammer. One minute you’re feeling fine, and the next you can be shivering, burning up, and then shivering again. In minutes, your legs become weak and your body aches in places that have never hurt before. Influenza can break out so suddenly that people can sometimes say, “It hit me at exactly 9 last night.” But whether the flu strikes at night or on the bus to school, there’s just one thing a victim wants to do: lie down in bed. A healthy person can fight off the flu in three to five days, though a cough and tired feeling can last two more weeks. But often an attack of the flu is followed by another illness. Doctors recommend that old people, or people of nay age with heart or lung problems, get a flu vaccine every year. Because flu viruses change all the time, a new vaccine must be prepared each year to protect against future attacks.The flu is such an infections illness that it can hit you any time and anywhere. One minute you can be feeling fine, and the next you can be shivering, burning up, and then shivering again. Soon your legs become weak and your body begins to ache. Once the flu hits you, you just want to lie down in bed. Usually, it lasts three to five days, buy is often followed by another illness. If you’re old or have heart or lung problems, you’d better get a flu vaccine every year so as to protect against it.Task 4: An AnnouncementReceptionist: Good morning. Dr. Black’s office.Student: Hello, this is Albert Shaw. I’d like to make an appointment with Dr. Black for a checkup. Would 9:30 be all right?Receptionist: Let’s see.

I’ll have a class until 3:15.Receptionist: OK, let’s make it 3:30 the day after tomorrow. That’s Thursday.IV. Speaking OutNow Your TurnJames: Hello, Nicky!

I’m following the doctors orders, but I hate taking pills. You can’t be sure about the side effects. James: I know what you mean. Some medicines are not safe.Nicole: You could say that again.Model 2 Is it serious, doctor?Now Your TurnDoctor: Well, John, your blood pressure is a bit high.

More rest, less work.John: Do I have to drop some classes? The trouble is that my class schedule is so tight this semester.Doctor:Take it easy. Take the prescription for three months, then come back for another checkup.Model 3 What’s on your mind?Now Your TurnKatherine: What’s on your mind, Sarah?Sarah: I’m really anxious. I’m afraid of the oral presentation tomorrow.Katherine: There’s really no reason to be worried. You’ve practiced it so often with me that even I know it.Sarah: But I can’t help worrying.

I’ll give you this pamphlet with diet suggestions to follow, and I also want you to do some walking and some one-hour workouts at the gym. Maybe three times a week.Jim: Diet? Exercise?

Here you are!VI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Medical Services on CampusWhile every university in America has its own policies and creates its own rules, most provide some type of medical service or health insurance for students, especially large universities. If students have a cold, or other illnesses, they can see a doctor, and they may also seek medical advice on a range of issues. Free testing for STDs such as HIV is a major part of disease prevention—sharing important information about the epidemic. If students need a major operation or procedure, they must seek outside assistance, but the school may help them make the arrangements. Smaller universities and colleges are not likely to provide in-depth medical assistance; they usually deal with small problems in housing, and assist students to take care of major issues off campus. No medical services are offered in universities and colleges that do not have students living on campus.1. medical service health insurance2. medical advice3. operation outside make the arrangements4. medical assistance housing off campus5. living on campusTask 2: An Expensive TreatmentSteven had a temperature of 100. His head was stuffed; his bones ached and his throat was sore. He knew he had the flu. All his roommates had been sick with it. He had used up all the special creams and herbs that his mother had carefully packed and put in his suitcase, saying, “Just in case you get sick.” After three days of lying in bed, feeling miserable, Steven decided to go to the doctor. He described all his symptoms and was sure the doctor would give him a shot that would make him feel much better. Instead, the doctor told him to get plenty of rest and to drink lots of liquids. She gave him a prescription to fill and said in two or three days he would be feeling better. Ashe left, the receptionist told him his visit would cost $50. Steven paid the money in cash and left the doctor’s office feeling very angry1. F2.T3.F4.F5.TTask 3: Doctor’s AdviceOnce an old gentleman went to see a doctor. The doctor examined him and said, “Medicine won’t help you.” You must have a complete rest. Go to a quiet country place for a month, go to bed early, drink milk, walk a lot, and smoke just one cigar a day.”“Thank you very much,” said the old gentleman, “I shall do everything you say.”A month later, the gentleman came to the doctor again, “How do you do!” said the doctor, “I am very glad to see you. You look much younger.”“Oh, doctor,” said the gentleman, “I feel quite well now. I had a good rest. I went to bed early. I drank a lot of milk.I walked a lot. Your advice certainly helped me. But you told me to smoke one cigar a day, and that one cigar almost killed me at first. It’s no joke to start smoking at j\my age.”1.D2.B3.A4.B5.D。

The reason behind this belief stems the old idea that a person‟s soul is in their (S3) reflection, so that if you smash your mirror, you soul will be (S4) damaged too, dooming you do an early death, and not giving you entry to (S5) heaven. Is there any way to reverse this bad luck? Yes—if you very carefully (S6) pick up all the broken pieces of the mirror and throw them into a river or stream, then the bad luck will be”(S7) washed away”..Of all number, 13 is the most associated with bad luck. (S8) Some people claim that the number is bad luck because thirteen people sat down for the Last Supper before Jesus was crucified, and with this in mind few hosts will serve dinner with thirteen at the table. And according to an ancient Norwegian tale, twelve gods had gathered for a feast when a thirteenth, Loke, entered. After the meal, Loke killed Balder, who was the most beloved of all the gods.(S9) Friday the thirteenth of any month is considered especially bad or unlucky, and Friday the thirteenth of March is the worst of the all.The number seven also has some superstition connected to it. It is said that God created the world in seven days, and any association with the number is luck. The seventh son of the seventh son is said to be the luckiest of men, and (S10)When people talk about the “seven-year itch”they mean that every seven years a person undergoes a complete change in personality.Task3: The Status on Easter IslandScriptOne of the greatest mysteries on Earth is the statues on Easter Island. The island is one of the most remote places on Earth, located in the southern Pacific Ocean. It was almost uninhabited when it was discovered on Easter Day in 1722 by a Dutch captain, but it is covered with hundreds of giant statues, each weighing several tons and some standing more than 30 feet tall.Who carved these statures, and how and why were they put there?Nobody knows the answer for sure, but many ate trying to find out. There are manytheories to explain this mystery. It has even been suggested the space aliens may have played a role regarding these giant statues. Another theory relates to the fact that Easter Island was inhabited by Polynesian seafarers, who traveled thousand of miles in their canoes, guided by the stars, the color of sky and the sun , the shapes of clouds, and the presence of birds making flights out to sea seeking food. The Polynesians first arrived on the island in 499A.D.However, the ocean currents which carried them there would mot take them back. They were trapped and, having arrived there, could not leave. The Polynesians probable cared the statues themselves, perhaps as religious symbols.To date, 887 statues have been discovered on the island. However, only a few statues were carried intended destination. The rest were abandoned along the way.The statues appear to have been carved out of the top edge of walls of a volcano on the island. After a statue was carved, it may have been rolled or dragged down to the base of the volcano. Then it was put upright, and ropes were tied around it. Using a pulley system, the statue was moves to its intended destination.At its peak, the population of Eater Island is believed to have reached 11,000. Eventually, the resources of the island were exhausted, and the people resorted to cannibalism, eating one another. Work on the statues stopped and the statues were knocked over. When the first Europeans finally arrived on the island, most of the people lad died out.1.When and by whom was the island discovered?2.Who are mentioned in the passage as possible builders of the statues?3.What is true of the Polynesians on the island according to the passage?4.How many statues ere carried to their intended destination?5. Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the passage?Keys: 1A 2.B3. D 4.D 5BFor ReferenceThe resources of the island were exhausted, and the people resorted to cannibalism, eating each other. When the first Europeans finally arrived on the island, most of the people lad died out.IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1This is a custom that dates back to the ancient Celts.Chris: Sue, do you know why people say, “knock on wood” when they want to avoid bad luck?Susan: It sounds a bit funny. As far as I know, it has a lot to do with ancient Celtic people. They worshipped trees.Chris: Sounds interesting.Susan: They thoughts trees would suck demons back into the ground.Chris: Well, when you think about the deep roots, their belief seems to make some senses.Susan: What‟s more, knocking on wood was a way to brag without being punished.People once thought that evil spirits would become jealous if good fortunewas pointed out to themChris: Uh, yes, go on.Susan: well, by knocking on wood three times, the noise could frightened away the evil spirits, and they couldn‟t have to rob the braggart of that good fortune Chris: I‟m afraid those who don‟t know this superstition might be frightened away as well.Susan:Now here‟s a test. Do you know how the custom of kissing under the mistletoe originated?Chris:I haven‟t the slightest idea, but I‟m all ears.Susan:Again this is a custom that dates back to the ancient Celts. Since they worshipped trees, they conducted many of their ceremonies in thewoods in the shade of trees.Chris: Now I see. Probably it‟s under these mistletoe trees that weddings took place. Susan: I wish you were standing under some mistletoe right now.Chris: Luckily I‟m not. Touch wood.MODEL2 Is there any relationship between superstitions and real life?ScriptChris: It‟s strange that so many people are superstitious. There must be some relationship between superstitions and real life.Susan:You know, Richard Wiseman, a British psychologist researched the relationship between superstition and luck.Chris: What did he find? Most people would be interested. At least I would Susan:He polled ,000 people and fond that people who believe themselves to be lucky tend to go for positive superstitions .They may wear a ring as a talismanor often say,” touch wood” for good luck.Chris: Then, what about the unlucky people? Do you mean if they think they ate unlucky, they tend to believe in superstitions abut bad luck.Susan: Yeah. They worry a lot about a broken mirror, a black cat running across their path, and so on.Chris: So what is his point?Susan: His point is that people make their own luck by their attitude to life. So, 49 percent of lucky people regularly cross their fingers, compared to 30 percent of unlucky people. And only 18 percent of lucky people are anxious if they break a mirror.Chris: So, our fate is linked to our attitude rather than to our superstitions.Susan: I think that‟s what he is suggesting.Chris: This research seems too complicates. If I were a psychologist, I would conducta survey to find whether 13 really is an unlucky number. I f there ere trafficaccidents or murders on the 13th than on other days, then we have to believe in superstitions.Susan: What if there weren‟t?Chris: Then I wouldn‟t be superstitious.Susan: What a brilliant idea! I never expected you to be as wise as Solomon. Chris: Well as long as you don‟t think I‟m a fool.MODEL3 I believe ETs have visited the earth before.ScriptNora: Hey, what‟s this picture of yours? It looks like a flying saucer.Chris: It is. I was visited by aliens last week and this is a picture of their spacecraft. Nora: When I look closer, it resembles a liver Frisbee.Chris: But it could have been aliens. I believe ETs have visited the earth befor e. What do you think?Nora:It would be hard to believe otherwise. Projects like the pyramids are difficult to explain away, given the level of technology that was available at the time Chris: That‟s for sure. They are mysterious.Nora: When you consider all those “impossibilities, it‟s tempting to infer that some highly advanced civilization assisted humans in their construction.Chris: Think about this: if you were abducted by aliens and taken up to their spaceship or something …well…Nora: What do you mean?Chris: I mean, who would believe you? You‟d go nuts telling everyone: “It‟s true! I was abducted by aliens!”Nora: And everyone would think you were crazy, or just making up a story to getattention.Chris: From what I understand,sometimes these people do go crazy, trying to convince people about their experiences.Nora: I believe that in some cases they offer pretty good evidence.Chris: So, take a closer look at this picture. Do you still think it‟s a Frisbee?Now Your TurnTask 1SAMPLE DIALOGSimon: Eliza, do you know why people say” keep your fingers crossed” when they want to wish others luck?Eliza: It sounds a bit funny. As far as I know, it‟s a lot to do with an ancient Christian belief.Simon: Uh, go on.Eliza:In the Christian belief “making the sign of the cross” would keep away evil spirits and bad luck.Simon: I see. When you think about the cross, sign of Christianity, that belief seems to make some sense.Eliza:That‟s true. That‟s why children often cross their fingers when they tell a small lie. They want to keep bad luck away, or to avoid being punished. Simon: Sounds interesting. So, I‟ll cross my fingers for you before you take the final examination.Eliza:Thank you.Simon: But those who don‟t understand this superstition might be puzzledEliza:With interesting communications among nations, more and more people can understand it now.V. Let’s TalkScriptThanks, perhaps, to falling stock markets and unrest in the Middle East, Britons have become even more superstitious than usual, according to a report published today. “There has been a significant increase in superstition over the last month, possible as a result of current economic and political uncertainties,” stated Dr. Dick Armstrong. He launched an Internet Survey of national superstition, and found it to be surprisingly high, even among those with a scientific background. Only more in ten of those surveyed claimed not to be superstitious at all. Three out of four people in Britain feel the need to touch wood, and 65% cross their fingers.It is interesting to note that lucky people were much less superstitious and tended to take constructive action to improve their lives. Conversely, superstitious people tended to regard themselves as among the less lucky, worried about life, had a strong need for control, and could not tolerate ambiguity.The survey also revealed some unexpected beliefs. For example, one respondent could not stay in the bathroom once a toilet had been flushed.There was no evidence that superstitious ever worked, even, when people were instructed to carry lucky charms for a week. They didn‟t feel any luckier or more stratified with their lives at the end of that week than when they started.Armstrong attempted to explain this phenomenon: “When students are preparing for exams with a lucky charm, they may trust the charm, rather than doing some extra revision.”VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: Horseshoes as a Sign of Good LuckScriptHorseshoes are a traditional sign of good luck. Most people believe this comes from the fact that the horseshoe is shaped like the crescent moon, a period of prosperity and good fortune. One legend has it that the Devil was in disguise and wandering at large, looking for trouble. He happened to call on St. Dunstan, who ea skilled in shoeing horses. St. Dunstan recognized the Devil and tied him to a wall with only his feet free to move. He then set to work shoeing him as though he were a horse, but with such roughness the Devil cried out for mercy. St. Dunstan stopped his work and released the Devil after making him promise never to enter a home on which a horseshoe wasfixed. Witches fear horses, so they are also turned away by a door with a horseshoe mounted on it. The big issue regarding horseshoes is whether they should be hung points up or points down.The original superstition was that the horseshoe is points up to keep the luck from pouring out. Despite this view most buildings with horseshoes in their sign hang them the opposite way. The Horseshoe Casino in Las Vegas hangs its horseshoe with the arc on top. They may be hoping their customers‟ luck runs out, but this is usually not something you advertise in your sign. Finger rings made of horseshoe nail are said to keep away bad luck. Also, robbing two horseshoes together is said to bring good luck.1.According to the passage, what does the crescent moon represent?2.What did St. Dunstan do to the Devil?3.What did the Devil promise?4.What is the big issue concerning the horseshoe?5.Why is the arc of the horseshoe up at the casino in Las Vegas?Keys: 1.A 2.C 3.D 4.C5.BTask 2: Superstitions or real bad lucks?ScriptJoan: Pass me that mirror, would you? I‟ll see if my makeup is OK.Dick: OOOPS!! Sorry I dropped it…but is it you or me that gets the seven years of bad luck?Joan: You, I hope, but probable neither of us. I wonder where that “old wives‟ tale”originated anyway.Dick: There used to be a lot of superstitions: black cats, ladders, numbers. My parent and grandparents are full of them.Joan: I agree. People today are much more educated than before. These superstitions are just amusing pieced of history rather than beliefs, don‟t you think so? Dick: Perhaps, but some people today still go for them. People whose livelihoods depend more on luck—like professional athletes, or fishermen—often they have superstitious routines.Joan: It‟s rue. I have heard of athletes who wear lucky socks or a treasured medal to bring them good fortune.Dick: And let‟s not forget lucky numbers. We all know about the number4,6, and 8 inChina.Joan: I know 4 is death and 8 is wealth, but what is the significance of 6?Dick: 6 means good luck. Some people include 6 in their e-mail address just for luck. Joan: Maybe we are not as smart as we think we are.Dick: Well, there are many things in the universe that we cannot control, and that‟s why people are superstitious.Keys: TTFFTTask3: Career TransitionsScriptThere was a king in Africa who has a close friend that he grew up with. The friend has a habit of looking at every situation in his life and saying, “This is good!”One day the king and his friend were out hunting. The friend would load and prepare the guns for the king. The friend had apparently done something wrong in preparing one of the guns, for after taking the gun from his friend, the king fired it and his thumb was blown off. Examining the situation, the friend remarked as usual, “This is good!” to which the king replied, “No, this is NOT good!” and proceeded to send his friend to jail.About a year later, the king was hunting in an area that he should have known to stay clear of. Cannibals captured him and took him to their village. They tied him to a stake surrounded by wood. As they came near to set fire to the wood, they noticed that the king had but one thumb. Being superstitious, they never ate anyone that was less than whole. So they set the king free.As he returned home, he was reminded of the event that had taken his thumb off and felt badly sorry about his treatment of his friend. He went immediately to the jail to speak with his friend. “You were right,”he said, “it was good for my thumb was blown off.” Then he apologized, “I‟m very sorry for sending you to jail for so long. It was bad for me to do this.”“No,” his friend replied, “this is good!”“What do you mean, …this is good‟? How could it be good that I sent you, my good friend, to jail for all this time?”“If I had not been in jail, I would have been with you—and eaten.!”For Reference1.He had a habit of looking at every situation in his life and saying, “This is good!”2.After taking the gun, the king fired it and his thumb was blown off.3.They set the king free, because being superstitious, they never ate anyone that wasless than whole4.He felt sorry for his friend and went to the jail to apologize to him.5. If he had not been in jail, I would have been with you—and eaten.News ReportEgyptian TombsScriptArchaeologist have uncovered two tombs that date back more than 2,500 years in the part of Cairo where the ancient city of Heliopolis once stood, according to Egyptian antiquity authorities.Although there is a modern suburb of Heliopolis in Cairo southeast of its ancient namesake, the original Heliopolis was known as a center of learning and academic study in ancient Mediterranean times.The 26-century-old tombs that date back to the years 664 to 625 BC were developed during a routine archaeological inspection of an empty plot of land in the Eins Shams district of northwestern Cairo. This district covers part of the ground that used to be the ancient city of Heliopolis.The owner of the land was seeking construction rights and by law, construction cannot begin without a permit certifying that the site has no historical significance.The first of the two limestone tombs to be opened contained a sarcophagus and sixteen statuettes, said the chief state archaeologist for the Cairo-Giza area, Zahi Hawass.Hawass said in a statement that the tombs were found in a d owntown residential area, three meters below the ground.[SOUND BITE]Hawass went on to give a more detailed account of the important find.[SOUND BITE]It appears that the tombs have not been raided by grave robbers, but they have been damaged by leaking sewage water.The first tomb to be uncovered belonged to a builder named Waja-Hur. His name was engraved on the statuettes, which the ancient Egyptians placed in tombs to answer questions for them in the afterlife.Te process of recovering these artifacts can be long and tedious, but the historical significance of these pieces makes the painstaking work worthwhile.[SOUND BITE]Egyptian archaeologists plan to open the second tomb on Sunday.。

The passage will be read three times.If you want to show that you are open to making new friends, you need to be very aware of your body language and what it is saying about you. First, make sure you keep an open posture. This means keeping your head up and your shoulders back. Don’t fold or cross your arms across your body, as this puts a barrier between you and other people. Second, make eye contact. This tells people that you are friendly and ready to chat to them. Third, don’t forget to smile, and make sure that you smile with your eyes and not just your mouth. This way, your smile will look real, and not fake. If you remember these three golden rules of body language, you will find it easy to make friends in new situations.参考答案Part I Listening ComprehensionSection A1. B2. A3. C4. B5.DSection B1. D2. A3.
