LisaVIDEO SCRIPTInterviewer: So tell me a little bit about you and money—whether you are good at saving, or can you save for something special. Do you just blow all your money as soon as youhave it?Deepti: Well, when I was growing up in India, my parents were, you know, very open and free with money. So if I wanted something, they would say, “OK, you can go ahead and take this.” And I think that spoiled me a little bit, because I would just, whatever I wanted,the importance of saving I’d take the money and go buy it, and I didn’t really realizemoney. So when I grew up, I was twenty-two, and I left India to go to Singapore, and Iwas on my own, and I had a scholarship, and my father would, on the phone, he wouldtalking ask me, “So, how much money have you saved?” And I was like, “What are youabout? I’m not saving any money.” A nd he got married, and he wanted me to startsaving money. It was very hard for me to save money because I would go out and walknd be past a shop that had clothes and go, “Oh, I want that,” and I would go in, get it, areally happy. It made me happy, you know. But, I think after a year or so when I realizedthat I had to take care of myself, not only now, but let’s say a year from now, and a yearo start saving so from now I might not have the money that I’m getting now, so I have tthat I’m not, you know, no the streets without any money. So I started saving, but I stillhad a hard time with it. My sister is very good. She is very stingy with money, you know.o on, spend the money. You And when I was in India, I would tell her, “Oh come on, gknow, if you want something, go get it.” And she would always tell me,” You should think about our parents. They’re making all this money for us, but we shouldn’t spend it just like that.” I think now I am a little better about s a ving, but not very good. Not as good as Icould be.Joe:I think I’m very good at handling money. I save when I need to; I spend when I wouldlike to. I try to keep control of my funds so that I don’t end up in situations where I don’have money to pay for basic necessities. But I do feel that you should spend money thatyou have while you have it and while you’re here, as opposed to saving it for a rainy daythat never comes.Interviewer: And saving, what are you trying to do to save? Have you made a plan?Lisa: I have made a plan. I, what I do now is just take out a certain amount of money atthe beginning and save it. I just put it away before I even really see it. So that way I canlike build up and spend whatever else I have.Interviewer: And is that working?Lisa:It’s going pretty well. It’s going pretty well. I have a little bit of something saved up.ListeningPart 1Talk About Saving MoneyA. Read and listen to a conversation between two friends about saving money.Teaching SuggestionsStep 1Have students look at the pictures. Ask What is it?What do you think it’s used for?Step 2Then ask How do children save money in this country?Step 3After students read and listen, ask What did Judy buy?(an entertainment system) Did she pay in cash or by credit card? (in cash) Is she rich? (No.she had to save up for it.) How did she save enough money? (She cut back on spending;She started living within her means.)Step 4own experiences, ask Have you ever put money aside to buyTo draw on students’ something you wanted, such as an entertainment system, a computer, a bicycle, or a car?Encourage students to share their experiences. Ask Was it hard to save the money youneeded?Language note: Students may need help with the following words or expressions: strike itrich (suddenly make a lot of money); cut back on (reduce the amount, size, cost, etc., ofsomething); out of hand (impossible to control).Save, save up, put money away, and put money aside have the same meaning. (Thelatter is introduced in lesson 2.) They can be followed by an infinitive or for and a noun.For example, I want to put money aside to buy a car; I’m saving up for a new car; I’mputting money away for a down payment.Kind of is an expression used in spoken English meaning slightly or in some ways.Culture note: A piggy bank is a container used mainly by children to store coins. Piggybanks are to encourage good saving and spending habits: the pig must be broken openfor the money to be retrieved, forcing the child to justify his or her decision. The namepiggy bank originated in the twelfth century; pygg referred to a type of clay used formaking jars people stored their money in. By the eighteenth century, the term pygg jar had evolved to pig bank.Option: On the board, write the following expressions:Did you strike it rich?My bills are totally out of hand.I need to live within my means.I cut way back on spending.In pairs, have students think of different ways to say each expression. 〔+5-10 minutes〕B.

Call onstudents to share their explanations.Step 2Have volunteers share whether they are more like Judy or David and give a supportingreason. (Possible responses: I’m more like Judy because I try to live within my means; I identify with David because I spend a lot of money on bills.)Step 3Have a volunteer read the statements out loud. If necessary, clarify the meaning of I can’tmake ends meet. (The money I earn every month is not enough to cover my expenses.)Step 4Point out the useful language to talk about managing money: live within / beyond your means; keep track of your expenses; put money away into saving; pay your bills off / in full;make ends meet. Have students underline these expressions.Step 5Have students choose the statements individually.Step 6As pairs compare their answers, encourage them to give specific examples for each item.For example, I live beyond my means. When I go shopping, I just can’t help buying the things I like.Step 7Ask What habits would you like to change, if any? What can you do to raise your financialIQ? (Possible response: I only keep track of my most important expenses.

One thinks of successes in medicine in the fight against disease, such as the invention of antibiotics and the promise held out by advances in biogenetic engineering. On a broader scale, one thinks of man's success in harnessing new forms of energy from steam power through oil to nuclear power.Yet, nature has often hit back in unexpected ways to these attempts to tame it. New forms ofAppendix I - 98-disease that are resistant to antibiotics are constantly developing. Burning fossil fuels has led to fears of global warming; while nuclear power has produced dangerous waste that will remain a hazard for generations to come.However, perhaps to talk of man triumphing over nature is the wrong way to look at the matter. We need to find ways to work with nature rather than forever fighting against it.(154 words)Unit 2Text org. Ex. 2 On P381. Smart cars can see, hear, feel, smell, talk, and act;2.

全新版大学英语综合教程4课后答案全全新版大学英语综合教程4课后答案Book4Unit 1Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:The song you are about to hear is based on a true story. It tells the tale of the sinking of a ship called The Edmund Fitzgerald that was caught in a storm on Lake Superior back in November 1975, with the loss of all on board.Lake Superior is an enormous lake and the wind can at times make it dangerous to shipping, whipping up huge waves. November is a particularly dangerous month for such storms. This had long ago been noticed by a local native American tribe, the Chippewa, who used to speak of how death threatened from the lake when storm clouds gathered in November. According to legend, the big lake, which they called Gitche Gumee, was without mercy in that month, never giving up those it had marked for death.It is this legend that starts the song before it moves on to talk of The Edmund Fitzgerald. The Edmund Fitzgerald, like many other ships that sail the lake, was built to carry iron ore. Filled with ore these ships lie low in the water and can find themselves in difficulties in rough weather. So, with a full load on board we can imagine the anxiety that must have begun to creep into the hearts of the sailors on board The Edmund Fitzgerald as they felt the cold wind beginning to rise and heard the sound of it singing as it blew through the wires. For, despite the fact that the captain and crew were all experienced, "well-seasoned" as the song says,they all knew the dangers of November storms. Before long their worse fears started to come true and the storm had risen to a hurricane. The despair of the crew is captured in the words of the cook. First he comes on deck to tell the sailors it is too rough to cook, they will have to wait for their supper. The next we hear from him he is saying- $6 -Appendix Igoodbye to his shipmates. Water is pouring into the ship. The captain sends out a distress signal, but that is the last that is heard from the ship. It is swallowed up by the lake, leaving nothing behind but the mourning families of the twenty-nine sailors and the sound of the church bell ringing in their memory.Now let's listen to the song:The Wreck of the Edmund FitzgeraldGordon LightfootThe legend lives on from the Chippewa on downOr the big lake they call Gitche GumeeTke lake, it is said,rfever gives up her deadWhen the skies or November turn gloomyWitk a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons moreThan the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed emptyThat good ship and true was a hone to be chewedWhen the gales of November came earlyTke skip was tke pride of tke American side Coming back fromsome mill in Wisconsin As tke kig freigkters go, it was kigger tkanmost Witk a crew and good captain well seasoned Concludingsome terms witk a couple of steel firms Wken tkey left fullyloaded for Cleveland And later tkat nigkt wken tke skip's kell rang Could it ke tke nortk wind tkey'd been feelingTke wind in tke wires made a tattle-tale soundAnd a wave broke over tke railingAnd every man knew,as tke captain did tooTwas tke witck of Novemker come stealingTke dawn came late and the breakfast had to waitWken the Gales of November came slashingWhen afternoon came it was freezing rainIn the face of a hurricane west windAppendix 1- 6? -When suppertime came,the old cook came on deck say ing Fellas1, it's too rough to reed ya2At seven PM a main hatchway caved in,he saidFellas, it's heen good to know yaThe captain wired in he had water coming inAnd the good ship and crew was in perilAnd later that night when his lights went out of sightCame the wreck of the Edmund FitzgeraldDoes any one know where the love of God goes When the waves turnthe minutes to hours The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay If they'd put fifteen more miles hehind her They mighthave split up or they might have capsized They may have broke deep andtook water And all that remains is the faces and the names Of the wivesand the sons and the daughters JLake Huron rolls, Superior singsIn the rooms of her ice'water mansionOld Michigan steams like a young man's dreamsThe islands and hay s are for sportsmenAnd farther helow Lake OntarioTakes in what Lake Erie can send herAnd the iron boats go as the mariners all knowWith the Gales of November rememberedIn a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed In the Maritime Sailors'Cathedral The church hell chimed til it rang twenty-nine timesFor each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald■■1 fella: (slang) fellow2 ya: (slang) you- 66 -Appendix 1Trie legend lives on irom the Chippewa on down Or thenig lake they call Gitche Gumee Superior, they said, nevergives up her dead When the gales or November comeearlyPart II Text Alexf Organization":............................■■■■...................................■■ -Parts Paragraphs'' Main IdeasPart One Paras 1-2Introduction —Both Napoleon's and Hitler's militarycampaigns failed because of the severity of the Russianwinter.Part Two Paras 3-11Napoleon's military campaign against RussiaPart Three Paras 12-20Hitler's military campaign against the Soviet UnionPart Four Para 21Conclusion—The elements of nature must be reckonedwith in any military campaign.2.Sections Paragraphs Main IdeasSection One Paras 12-13Hitler's blitzkrieg against Russia and Stalin's scorched earthpolicySection Two Paras 14-18the battles fought at Leningrad, Moscow and Stalingrad Section Three Paras 19-20the Russian counter-offensive and the outcome of the war VocabularyI. 1. 1) alliance3) stroke5) minus7)declarations 2)heroic 4) limp6)regios 8) siegeAppendix I- $99) raw10) retreat11) have taken their toll12) In the case of13) campaign14) at the cost of15) has been brought to a halt2. 1) is faced with2) get bogged down3) is pressing on / pressed on 4) drag on5) picking up6) falling apart7) cut back8) take over3. 1) The rapid advance in gene therapy may lead to the conquest of cancer in the nearfuture.2)The border dispute between the two countries resulted in thousands of casualties.3)Sara has made up her mind that her leisure interests will/should never get in the way ofher career.4)Obviously the reporter's question caught the foreign minister off guard.5)The introduction of the electronic calculator has rendered the slide rule out of date /obsolete.4. 1) At that time, the enemy forces were much superior to ours, so we had to give up theoccupation of big cities and retreat to the rural and mountainous regions to build upour bases.2)Unity is crucial to the efficient operation of an organization.

To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraidwe might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble.We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spiteof great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle.

Model PaperCan Man Triumph over Nature?When people talk of man triumphing over nature, many things come to mind. One thinks of successes in medicine in the fight against disease, such as the invention of antibiotics and the promise held out by advances in biogenetic engineering. On a broader scale, one thinks of man's success in harnessing new forms of energy from steam power through oil to nuclear power.Yet, nature has often hit back in unexpected ways to these attempts to tame it. New forms ofAppendix I- 98 -disease that are resistant to antibiotics are constantly developing. Burning fossil fuels has led to fears of global warming; while nuclear power has produced dangerous waste that will remain a hazard for generations to come.However, perhaps to talk of man triumphing over nature is the wrong way to look at the matter. We need to find ways to work with nature rather than forever fighting against it.(154 words) Unit 2■Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:What will the world be like in five hundred years' time? A thousand years' time? Or more? Some people are optimistic, looking forward to a better world. Others are pessimistic, and fear that things can only get worse. The writer of the song you are about to listen to takes the pessimistic view. Looking further and further into the future things seem to him to get worse and worse. By 3535, he foresees all our thoughts and feelings will be shaped by drugs. Looking further still into the future he foretells that our bodies will waste away as machines do everything for us. Family life as we know it will fade away as children are bred artificially, chosen, in the words of the song, "from the bottom of a long black tube." Given that man seems to pay so little attention to taking care of the planet and avoiding using up all its resources, he ends by wondering whether man will still be around in the future. It's enough, as he says, to make even God shake his head.Here is the song:In the Year 2525Zager & EvansIn the y ear 2525If man is still aliveIf woman can surviveThey may find- 9^ -Appendix IIn the y ear 3535Ain't gonna need* to tell the truth, tell no lies Everythingyou think, do, or say Is in the pill you took todayIn the y ear 4545Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need y our ey esYou won't rind a thing to doNobody's gonna look at youIn the y ear 5555Your arms are hanging limp at y our sidesYour legs not nothing to doSome machine is doing that for youIn the y ear 6565Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife-:You'll pick y our son, pick your daughter .tooFrom the bottom of a long black tube.In the y ear, 7510.

Our vacation was a disaster: the food was terrible, and the weather was awful as well. As a Special Administrative Region (SAR), Macao is permitted to retain its lucrative gambling industry although gambling remains illegal on the Chinese mainland. Manufacturers usually begin by building the prototype of a new model before they set up a factory to make the cars.Medical evidence shows that smoking and lung cancer are correlated. Expanded use of computer technology , development of stronger and lighter materials, and research in/into pollution control will produce better, and "smarter" automobiles. In the 1980s the notion that a car would "talk" to its driver was science fiction; by the 1990s it had become a reality , more or less. Presently automobile companies such as GM and Nissan are poised to launch new advertising campaigns for their smart cars. Sounds are produced by objects that vibrate in the air at a rate that the ear can detect. This rate is called frequency and is measured in hertz, or vibrations per second. Reflective devices are more visible at night and are used in some locations to marklanes and other significant places on the road. What's more, automated vehicle-control technologies are presently under development to improve highway safety . These devices are mounted in the vehicle and can alert a driver to an impending hazard or, in an emergency, override the actions of the driver.II.

They are indeed of great use to us, but they have brought some hazards as well, such as noise and air pollution, and highway fatalities. It is reported that automobile accidents rank among the leading causes of death and injury throughout the world. Fortunately modern innovators are reinventing the automobile. New propulsion systems, fuels, designs, and means of manufacturing cars have all developed rapidly in the past decade. For example, by using the satellite-aided global positioning system (GPS), a computer in the automobile can locate the vehicle's precise position, and with the application of sensors,smart cars can eliminate most car accidents.Part III TextBComprehension Check1. a 3. c 5. b2. c 4. d 6. bIranslalion(#JE Appendix III)App en dix I- 99 -Language Practice1. introduction3. diverse5. in cooperation with7.

He wrote the song back in the 1950s, shortly after leaving the army. It is easy to imagine that it may well reflect his own experience of suddenly finding himself having to look for a job. If the song is anything to go by, his wife was largely unsympathetic, suspecting him of laziness and not trying hard enough. Every morning she would get him out of bed, telling him to get a job; every breakfast she would throw the paper down in front of him, pointing out the jobs he could apply for. And when he got home at the end of the day without having had any success she would accuse him of lying about his job hunting, suspecting, no doubt, that he had not bothered to try. Do you think he did?

The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle.

And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important. At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy. The internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere. They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions.

He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.

Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well/ good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families. It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones. Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.I.

But as he was in no mood for q quarrel not in a quarreling mood, he simply pretended not to hear it.5)People say that time heals all wounds. But for those who have lost their loved ones in the event, will time fill up the void in their hearts?Today, long after the earthquake shook // hit my tome-town, I can still recall, in crystal detail, what I saw as I ran out of my home with my parents. The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of choking dust blotted out the sun.Horror-stricken people ran in all directions, crying and screaming.Now, many years after that tragic event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the old one. In the town square, a memorial has been build to remember those killed in the disaster. It seems the wounds in people’s hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.。

Unit 2 Musical MoodsUnit Goals♦Describe the music you listen to♦Explain the role of music in your life♦Describe a creative person♦Discuss the benefits of music♦Write about ways of relaxationLesson 1Lead-inTV Documentary: BeckPart 1A. Check the topics that are discussed in Part 1 of the report.Beck’s sound; Beck’s lyrics; Beck’s neighborhoodB. Listen to George Stephanopoulos and John Flansburgh at the beginning of Part 1 and complete their statements.1. the most fascinating figures in popular music.2. sound; beats; lyricsVideo ScriptVIDEO SCRIPTGeorge Stephanopoulos:I’m George Stephanopoulos and this is Nightline. Tonight, one of the most fascinating figures in popular music. Tonight, Beck. A musical maverick meets his moment.John Flansburgh:It’s been more than a decade since Beck arrived with Loser, a surreal homemade hit that rode a hip-hop beat to become a slacker anthem. It could have turned him into a one-hit wonder. Instead, over the course of seven albums and a non-stop chorus of acclaim, Beck has grown into one of the most compelling figures in rock music. And with his talent for collage, he’s created a free-wheeling mix of rock, hip-hop, traditional musics, and some sounds that usually only come out of video games. Now his latest recor ding, Guero, finds him stretching further still.Beck is now thirty-four years old, married, and a new father. On his new album, Guero, he returns to his signature sound of combining electronic loops and beats with acoustic folk-blues songwriting. But his lyrics are clearly more autobiographical, often dealing directly with disillusionment and loss.We first caught up with Beck last month at a packed London club, on the eve of the new album’s release, and an open-ended touring schedule, and the biggest marketing offensive of his career – from an appearance on Saturday Night Live; to a so-called ―Beck-isode‖ on the hugely popular nighttime soap The O.C., scored exclusively with his new music; to Starbucks, where you can have your Beck to go.Nic Harcourt: My guest is Beck. He’s got his band with him. He’s got a new record.John Flansburgh: And it’s paying off. Guero entered the Billboard chart at number two, the highest position of Beck’s career. Can you explain the meaning of ―guero‖?Beck: ―Guero‖ is … it me ans white boy. It’s kind of a slang word. It’s something that I would hear growing up. You know, something I’d hear on the street, walking to school, get called ―guero.‖ It’s just a … it’s just a word that always stuck in my head, and I wanted to do something with that at some point. And I think I ended up, in the end, just kind of doing this almost journalistic kind of look at that whole time.John Flansburgh: The vibrant culture clash of the poor Los Angeles neighborhood where Beck grew up seems to have inspired a love of collage, of mixing and contrasting unlikely combinations.Beck: I grew up near MacArthur Park, which is right next to downtown. And I guess it’s kind of the old … theL.A. of the ’30s and ’40s. And, and, but, you know, by the time I was born, it was a little more dilapidated and, and a lot of stuff was getting torn down. It was a mostly immigrant neighborhood, especially at that time, you know, Salvadoran, Guatemalan, Mexican, there are some Korean. And just kind of a … a mix of everythin g.Part 2A. Check the topics that are discussed in Part 2 of the report.Beck’s sound; Beck’s dancing; Beck’s videosB. Which one of the following reasons for why Beck is original is NOT supported by the report?bVIDEO SCRIPTJenny Eliscu: Plenty of critically acclaimed artists, at least, have as many influences and as wide a range of influences as Beck does. But they don’t reveal them all. They’re not able to mine all of their influences as well as Beck. There are few artists who can reveal a love for the Carter Family and, you know, sort of Brazilian music from the ’60s and hip-hop and punk rock and the Beatles, and take all these things and put them together so that you can find those things in the songs. B ut that’s the essential nature of collage, is … is picking up something that belonged to someone else and making it into something entirely new.John Flansburgh: Because we’re on Nightline, I have to ask the … the hard-hitting questions. I need to really drill down; I need to get some facts on this.Beck: All right.John Flansburgh: Where did you learn to dance?Beck: I didn’t learn. It was really on-the-job training, so to speak. And just being on stage and trying to figure out what to do with myself.John Flansburgh: Beck also puts a remarkable amount of creative energy into the visual aspects of his output. You make amazing videos and do almost sort of experimental packaging with your albums. Do you see yourself as a pop artist, as well as just a musician?Beck: The visual is definitely something that’s really important, that I just think of it as an extension from the music. When I first started making records, I just thought it was such an opportunity to bring maybe something art minded or, you know, something in film that interested me.John Flansburgh: Do you feel like he’s original?Jenny Eliscu: Definitely, yeah. You know, I’ll answer the question with a question. Can you name any other artist currently on the radio who sounds anything like him? Or who’s done anything that he’s done, nearly as well a s he’s done it, or nearly as authentically?John Flansburgh: Beck may still be finding his way through the pop marketplace, but artistically, his course is true. While the music industry chases every new fad, Beck shows us just how far a musician can get b y following his own compass. I’m John Flansburgh, for Nightline in New York.ListeningPart 1A. Sound BitesRead and listen to a conversation between two friends comparing musical tastes.Teaching SuggestionsStep 1Have students look at the photo. Ask:Do you think these people have a social relationship or a business relationship? What do you think they are talking about? Where are they?Step 2Have students read and listen to the conversation. To check comprehension, ask:Who is giving the party? (Ken)What kind of music does Tania like? (jazz)What does Ken first suggest listening to? (Fenix / Gato Barbieri)Does Tania like it? (no)What doesn’t Tania like about Fenix? (the way Gato Barbieri plays the saxophone and the fact that it’s hard to dance to)What’s Ken’s second suggestion? (some later stuff by Gato Barbieri)Why does that sound like a good idea to Tania? (because Ken says it’s got more of a Latin feel)Step 3Option: If your students show interest in jazz, ask:Do you like jazz? Are you familiar with Gato Barbieri? Have you ever heard Fenix? What other famous jazz musicians do you know?Culture NoteGato Barbieri is an Argentinean saxophonist who has won worldwide recognition. His score for the movie Last Tango in Paris in 1972 turned him into an international star. His album Fenix was released in 1971.B. Pair WorkRead the conversation again. With a partner, explain the meaning of each of the following statements or questions.Answers will vary, but may include:1.You have a lot of CDs.2.Let’s play some music.3.His saxophone playing is a little annoying on that CD.4.I really like him.5.Have you listened to some of the music he made later on in his career?6.It will get people in the mood for a party and dancing.7.Let’s put that CD on.Teaching SuggestionsStep 1Have pairs find and underline each statement in Exercise A. Encourage students to use the information in the text to help them figure out the meaning of the sentences. You may want to do the first item with the class. Step 2In pairs, have students complete the exercise. Then bring the class together and have students share their answers. Write the different ways of saying the statements on the board.Step 3Option: Have two volunteers read the conversation in Exercise A out loud, replacing the selected statements with other ways of saying them.Option: Have pairs create short conversations using the expressions from the exercise. For example, Student A: I just bought the new U2 CD. Student B:Let’s give it a listen!Part 2Discuss the Benefits of MusicA. Listening ComprehensionRead the questions. Then listen to Part 1 of a talk about an unusual use of music. Discuss the questions with a partner.1. She’s a music therapist.2. Answers will vary, but may include: She works with people of various ages who have all sorts of differentproblems. She designs music sessions based on individual need.ScriptPart 1 [A = Andre; B = Dr. Bettina Schmidt, German]A: Welcome to tonight’s talk. We have with us tonight Dr. Bettina Schmidt from the Schubert I nstitute. Dr.Schmidt is going to tell us about … well, an unusual use of music. Dr. Schmidt, welcome. Why don’t you tell us what you do?B:Good evening, Andre. Well, I’m a music therapist. I’ve been doing t hat for, oh, I’d say about twelve years now.A: And just what does a music therapist do?B: Essentially, we try to help people with their problems by using music.A: And who exactly would benefit from music therapy?B: We work with all sorts of people – children, teenagers, adults. These are people who have a wide range of problems – sometimes physical, sometimes emotional.A: And how does music help?B: Well, often just listening to music can be beneficial. So, in a typical music therapy session, I’ll play, maybe, some gentle classical music. This helps my client to relax and feel more comfortable.A:That’s it? Basically it’s about using music to relax people?B: Um, not exactly. Music therapy is much more than that. Music therapists design music sessions for individuals and for groups based on their specific needs.A: So, what kinds of activities do you do?B:Well, we often do structured activities –like singing, or listening, playing instruments, composing music, moving to music.A:And this is in a doctor’s office?B:Not necessarily. We work in all kinds of settings –hospitals, schools, senior centers –all around the community.A: So, how exactly does music help your clients?B: Well, there are four main benefits of music therapy: emotional, social, physical, and intellectual.A: Can you give us some examples?B: Of course.Teaching SuggestionsStep 1Have students look at the picture. Ask:What can you see in the picture? (Possible responses: drums, trees, small houses, music notes)How would you describe the atmosphere created by the picture? (Possible responses: relaxing, peaceful, quiet)Step 2Have students read the questions and listen to Part 1.Step 3After students discuss the questions and answers with a partner, review the answers as a class.B. Read the questions. Then listen to Part 2 of the talk and answer the questions.1. a. emotional; b. social; c. physical; d. intellectual2. Answers will vary, but may include:a. clients feel comfortable sharing emotionsb. clients develop social skillsc. encourages movement among those in paind. helps young children improve in mathScriptPart 2B:Let’s start with the emotional benefits. People who are depressed, for example, have difficulty expressing their feelings. Music creates a safe setting where we can express the feelings inside of us.A: I seeB: In a typical session, I’ll begin by asking my client to talk about how the music makes him feel. That opens him up. The idea is to help my client feel comfortable sharing his emotions.A: And what about the other benefits?B: Well, another benefit of music therapy is tied to the social context music provides. Listening to music in groups – with other people – builds an environment for communication – both verbal and non-verbal.A:But isn’t listening to music basically a solitary activity?B:It can be, but it can also be a social activity – involving sharing. That means that my clients can develop their social skills and will have more confidence in their ability to form relationships.A: Now you also mentioned physical benefits.B: Yes. Music can be stimulating and encourage physical movement. Some of my clients are in hospitals, and many are in serious pain because of an illness or an accident. Moving around is often difficult for them.Listening to music helps them forget their pain for a little while, and at the same time it stimulates them to move.A:OK. That’s three benefits. Didn’t you say there were four?B:That’s right. The fourth benefit is intellectual. Some parents come to me because their kids aren’t doing well in school. Research has shown that listening to music can help young children improve in math. Other research suggests that among university students, listening to music while studying can improve reading comprehension. We don’t know exactly how music improves learning, but perhaps it helps students concentrate, so they can think better. We just know that music improves our ability to learn.A: Simply amazing! Thank you so much, Dr. Schmidt.Teaching SuggestionsStep 1First listening: Have students listen and list the four benefits.Step 2Second listening: Have students listen for specific examples of each benefit.Step 3To make sure students are on the right track, pause after Dr. Schmidt finishes explaining the emotional benefits. Ask volunteers to share some examples of emotional benefits. (Possible responses: Music can help you express your feelings; Music can help you feel comfortable sharing your emotions.)Step 4Review as a class. Have volunteers share their responses.Language note: When Dr. Schmidt refers to her client as him, s he’s not necessarily speaking about a male client –she’s referring to any client.C. DiscussionTeaching SuggestionsStep 1Have a volunteer read the questions out loud.Step 2Write on the board benefits of music therapy, and have students list as many items as they can think of. (Possible responses: improve memory, control emotions, help you forget worries)Step 3Draw a two-column chart with the heads Who? and How? on the board. Ask students to take notes as they discuss item 2.Step 4Bring the class to gether to review. Have volunteers share their groups’ thoughts on who might benefit from music therapy and how.D. Pair workWhat do you think are some benefits music brings to people’s lives? Make a list and discuss. Teaching SuggestionsStep 1Have students take notes on the benefits of music and examples. Encourage students to think of three benefits and examples for each.Step 2As pairs write their ideas, circulate to offer help as needed. Remind students to use some participial adjectives.SpeakingDescribe the music you listen toA. Conversation SnapshotTeaching SuggestionsStep 1Have students read and listen to the conversation. To check comprehension, ask:What are the people talking about? (music they’ve been listening to; a singer from Senegal – Youssou N’Dour)Have both speakers heard his music before?

(CHORUS)Song 2: Lucky To Be Alive(CHORUS)Thank you for helping me to survive.I’m really lucky to be alive.When I was caught in a freezing snowstorm,you taught me how to stay warm.When I was running from a landslidewith no place to hide,you protected me from injury.Even the world’s biggest tsunamihas got nothing on me,because you can go faster.You keep me safe from disaster.You’re like some kind of hero –you’re the be st friend that I know.(CHORUS)When the big flood came with the pouring rain,they were saying that a natural disaster loomed.You just opened your umbrella.You were the only fellow who kept calm and prepared.You found us shelter.I never felt like anybody caredthat way that you did when you said,―I will always be there –you can bet your life on it.‖And when the cyclone turned the day into night,you held a flashlight and showed me the safe way home. You called for help on your cell phone.You said you’d never leave me.You said, ―Believe me,in times of trouble you will never be alone.‖They said it wasn’t such a bad situation.It was beyond imagination.I’m just glad to be alive –and that is no exaggeration.(CHORUS)Song 3: Reinvent the WheelY ou’ve got your digi camera with the Powershot,four mega pixels and a memory slot.You’ve got your e-mail and your Internet.You send me pictures of your digi pet.I got the digi dog and the digi cat,the digi this and the digi that.I hate to be the one to break the news,but you’re giving me the digi blues,(CHORUS)And you don’t knowthe way I really feel.Why’d you have to go andreinvent the wheel?You’ve got your cordless phone and your microwave, and your Reflex Plus for the perfect shave.It’s sup er special, top of the line,with the latest new, cutting-edge design.You’ve got your SLR and you LCD,your PS2 and your USB.I’ve seen the future and it’s pretty grim:they’ve used up all the acronyms.(CHORUS)Song 4: It’s a Great Day for LoveWherever you go,there are things you should know,so be awareof the customs and views –all the do’s and taboos –of people there.You were just a stranger in a sea of new faces. Now we’re making small talk on a first-name basis. (CHORUS)It’s a great day for love, isn’t it?Aren’t you the one I was hoping to find?It’s a great day for love, isn’t it?By the time you said hello,I had already made up my mind.Wherever you staybe sure to obeythe golden rules,and before you relax,brush up on the factsyou learned in school.Try to be polite and always be sure to getsome friendly advice on proper etiquette.

In my opini‎o n, the two main reaso‎n s why welfa‎r e payme‎n ts are neces‎s ary are as follo‎w s:First‎of all, criti‎c s forge‎t that there‎are many forms‎of welfa‎r e besid‎e s payme‎n ts to theunemp‎l oyed‎. Their‎negat‎i ve opini‎o ns harm those‎who are not capab‎l e of earni‎n g a wage, such as singl‎e paren‎t mothe‎r s, the disab‎l ed, and the sick.The secon‎d reaso‎n is that crime‎incre‎a ses when peopl‎e have no means‎of suppo‎r t. The despe‎r atel‎y poor inevi‎t ably‎turn to crime‎, which‎is not only dange‎r ous but also costl‎y.Certa‎i n membe‎r s of socie‎t y belie‎v e that peopl‎e shoul‎d look after‎thems‎e lves‎.

Write a description of peopleLesson 1Lead-inTV Documentary: Selling Them ShortA. The report mentions some problems short men face. What are they?buying clothes, getting a date, seeing around people in elevators, seeing a movie screen, driving carsB. Use words from the box to complete the statement. You will not use all of the words.1. mature and respected2. submissive, childish, weakVideo ScriptLynn Sherr: Imagine a world where nothing fits. Where pants are too long.Craig: The crotches are down to here, the seat’s down to here, the pants are up to there.Lynn Sherr: Where elevators are filled with giants.Rob: You kind of get cramped. And you know, it’s kind of hard to breathe sometimes.Lynn Sherr: Where driving a car means your feet don’t reach the pedals.David: You have to fumble down here, and some have bars underneath and some have these little electronic things on the side you have to figure out.Lynn Sherr: And where you can’t see the movie screen, let alone find a date to there.lst woman: I don’t care hair color, eye color, skin color-they need to be tall. Sorry.Lynn Sherr: Welcome to the world of short men. Ralph Keyes, 5’7”, wrote a book about height.Ralph Keyes: We just assume anybody we’re looking up to has power…has power over us.Lynn Sherr: We put Chris and Debbie, colleagues here at ABC News, in front of our camera, posing at different heights. Half the shots showed Chris as the tallerof the pair.Chris: The air’s kind of thin up here.Lynn Sherr: In the other half, Debbie was taller. Then we gave the photos to students at Fairleigh Dickinson University, and asked them to tell us a story about whatwas going on. When Chris was taller, the adjectives used to describe himwere mature and respected. When Chris was shorter than Debbie, theycalled him submissive, childish, weak. Andrea McGinty, who runs a datingservice in Chicago, knows all the tricks. We asked her to help us constructan experiment to test just how willing women are to date shorter men. Andwe found three brave volunteers. Stu is the shortest. How tall are you?Stu: I’m 5 foot. And 5’5” with the Afro.Lynn Sherr: Rob is 5’3”. He prefers taller women.Rob: I kind of enjoy it. I mean, I think there are some serious advantages to being a little bit, having a woman who’s a little bit taller.Lynn Sherr: David is getting married this fall.David: She is 5 feet tall.Lynn Sherr: And you are?David: I am 5’6”.Lynn Sherr: Oh, well.David: Giant, right.Lynn Sherr: We recruited other men about the same age as David, Stu, and Rob, but taller.We asked them all to dress in jeans and a sweater, then we did somethingcruel. We put them in lineups, five at a time, behind a two-way mirror. Themen couldn’t see or hear what was going on in the next room. That’s wherewe invited groups of women to look at the men and choose a date. In thiscase, we wanted to see if anyone would pick 5’3” Rob. When Andrea told uswomen like doctors, we gave him an M.D. Their choice?2nd woman: Anderw.3rd woman: I would say, Matt.Lynn Sherr: No, Rob. We piled on some more assets. We said, besides being a doctor, he was also a best–selling author and champion skier who just built his own skihouse.Andrea McGinty: Does that affect your choices?4th woman: He’s still short.Lynn Sherr: Then we gave Rob a promotion. We made him chief of at a prestigious hospital.Andrea McGinty: Who would you pick, Kim?5th woman: Andrew’s probably the closest to who I’d pick.6th woman: I’d pick Matt.7th woman: Jeffrey, the pilot.Lynn Sherr: What would it take? Now, we said Rob was also a gourmet cook who loves children.8th woman: Oh, definitely I would take him in a minute, then. Height, no problem.7th woman: I wouldn’t, because I would think I don’t want short, little kids. I was thinking that!Lynn Sherr: Well, at least someone liked Rob. But if it was this harsh for him at 5’3”, what would it take to get a date for Stu at just 5 feet?ListeningPart 1A. Sound BitesRead and listen to a conversation between a couple about dressing up and dressing down.Teaching Suggestions●Have students look only at the photos.

Listening ComprehensionListen to Part 1 of a radio program about men’s hairstyles. Then read the statements and listen again. Complete the statements, according to the information in the program.1. a2. b3. aScript T44Part 1 [C = Chuck Sims, host; S = Susan Yiga1, Australia]C: Chuck Sims here, and you’re listening to In Style. T oday we welcome Susan Yiga1, a hairstylist who does a lot of work for the film industry. Susan has won numerous awards for her beautiful work.S: Oh, thanks.C: Susan, I love your work. So many movies. So many gorgeous actors.S: Thank you, Chuck. Great to be here.C: Susan is an expert on the history of hairstyles, and today we’re going to focus on men’s hairstyles. Susan, tell us something about how men’s hairstyles changed in the twentieth century.S: Absolutely. But before I do, let’s not forget some of the styles that were in fashion before the twentieth century. Remember that back in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, among the European upper classes, the wig was a fashion must. Everyone wore one.C: Think wigs will ever come back?S: These days, you never know. Do you know why they became so fashionable?C: Not really.S: Well, you see, in the seventeenth century, King Louis XIV of France was going bald –so he had a staff of about forty wig makers working on long curly wigs for him to wear. C: Forty wig makers!S: Yes. And of course it then became the rage for all men to wear long curly wigs – until the nineteenth century. At that time, the style changed, and men stopped wearing wigs by the beginning of the nineteenth century. After that, they generally wore their own hair fair fairly long, and most men wore very long beards or sideburns.C: Which we see in some of the very early photos from that time.S: Right. But by the early twentieth century, that had changed. The norm for men was to wear their hair cut very, very short. And beards were something only grandfathers wore.If a man wore a mustache at all, it was cut very short.C: Until the 1960s and’70s, of course.S: Of course.B. Read the following statements and listen to Part 2 again. Complete the statements, according to the information in the program.1. b2. a3. cScriptPart 2S: By the 1960s, in Europe and throughout the Americas, men began to wear their hair long, and they grew beards and mustaches – pretty much as a protest against decades of what they saw as a very conservative culture.C: I remember that.S: At that time there had been an unwritten fashion code that said any man who didn’t wearhis hair very short – or who had a beard – was a radical.C: That’s hard to believe today.S: But that’s how it was. In the UK and the U.S., rock musicians led the way with hair, and mustaches seeming to get longer each year.C: Men today don’t always realize what an incredible change that was. Isn’t that true?S: Absolutely. How a man wore his hair was a social and political statement. But today,men’s hair fashions are all over the place –which was certainly not true back then.Men can wear their hair either long or short. Anything goes.C: Ponytails. Braids.S: Yup. A short beard or moustache.C: The goatee has been the beard of choice for a number of years now.S: And, of course, the bald look has become very popular now. Who would have thought twenty years ago that men would actually choose to shave off all their hair! No way! C: Any other trends worth looking at?S: Well, we haven’t said anything yet about men dyeing their hair. Over the last decade some men have chosen to dye their hair bright blond, red, yellow –even green or purple.C: Yeah, as a matter of fact, I saw that last time I was in Tokyo.S: That’s right. I’ve heard that in Japan this is a kind of social statement in response to strict school dress codes.C: Well, thank you, Susan, for … ahem … letting your hair down about a very interesting subject.S: Good one, Chuck. Thanks for having me.Teaching suggestionsStep 1Have a volunteer read the statements and answer choices out loud. If necessary, explain the meanings of unfamiliar terms.Step 2Review answers as a class.Step 3To have students support their choices, ask What were man protesting against when they changed their hairstyles? What would it have been considered eccentric? Why do they want to express their individuality?Option:Form small groups. To personalize the activity, have male students tell their group members which styles they have worn or would like to wear.C. DiscussionDo you agree with the hair stylist that “anything goes” today for men’s hairstyles? Are there any hairstyles that you really don’t like on a man? Do you think men’s hairstyles have improved or gotten worse in recent times?Teaching suggestionsStep 1To prepare for the discussion, have students look at the photos depicting hairstyles and decide which they like and which they don’t like on a man.Step 2Have students discuss the questions in small groups.Step 3To review, take a class poll. With a show of hands, determine which hairstyles depicted inthe photos are the least popular on a man. Then have students vote on whether they think hairstyles have improved or gotten worse in recent times. Write the results on the board. Step 4To finish, have volunteers summarize the results of the poll.SpeakingComment on Fashion and StyleA. Conversation snapshotTeaching SuggestionsStep 1Before students read and listen, have them look at the photo. Ask What do the man’s clothes say about him? (Possible response: that he likes fashion; that he wants to attract attention)Step 2After students read and listen, check comprehension by asking What does the first woman think about what the man is wearing?What does the second woman think? (that the man is in style; that his shirt is loud.)Language note:Check out is used in spoken English to tell someone to look at someone or something. Can you believe……? Shows you are surprised or shocked by something.Rhythm and Intonation PracticeTeaching SuggestionsHave students repeat chorally.B. VocabularyDescribing fashion and style. Listen and practice.Teaching SuggestionsStep 1Have students listen to the words and study the definitions. Then have students listen and repeat chorally.Step 2Say Use words that are informal (hot, tacky, flashy) with friends or other people you know well.Step 3To provide practice, have pairs use the words or phrases to give their own opinions of the clothes the man in the conversation snapshot picture is wearing.C.

Our troops engaging the enemy at the front were faced with strong/fierce/stiff resistance. The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Unit 2I.

On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities. However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents. For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine. They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce your chances of getting stuck in traffic jams.Unit 3I.

He told me that from his own experience the decision makers who interview prospective employees like people who are well prepared. Those who make no endeavor to learn as much about his prospective employer as possible don’t have much of a chance of success.Unit 4I.

For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs. And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important. At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy. The internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere. They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions. Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Unit 5I.

For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton. In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel. He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.

Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well/ good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families. It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.

In the town square, a memorial has been build to remember those killed in the disaster. It seems the wounds in people’s hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.。
