Unit 8新视野视听说教程2答案

UNIT8Unit8 crime does payII. Listening SkillsTo keep our children safe from those dangerous criminals, these tips might be helpful. First, children should be encouraged always to ask permission from their caregiver before they go anywhere .They should not only tell the care giver where they will be at all times, but also who will be looking after them.also, children should never walk or ride their bikes alone. Instead, they should travel in groups whenever possible. more importantly, children should be taught to stay away from strangers, though they may offer to show them a puppy or give them candy.children should be taught to say “no” and run, scream, or fight if necessary. moreover,children should be told that no problem is too big or too small to ask grown-ups. in fact,it is never too late to ask for help ,and to keep asking until they get the help they need. last but not least ,we should realize that many child-attack cases involve a family member or family friend, for example, a stepfather, sister’s boyfriend, babysitter, neighbor, and so on.III. Listening InTask 1: He or she?Girl: Yes, I’d like to report a mugging.Police Officer:Okay. can you tell me exactly what happened?Girl:well, I was walking home from work when this woman knocked me right off my right off my feet, seized my stuff, and ran off. I wasso scared that I didn’t go after her.Police Officer:Can you describe the woman for me?Girl: Yeah. He is quite tall, about six foot three.Police Officer: Wait. You said a woman robbed you.Girl: Well, I’m not really sure.[Hmm.]You see, the person was wearing a white dress,a light red sweater over it ,and she or he was wearinga pair of basketball shoes.Police Officer: [Hmm] What else can you remember?Girl: Well, the person…had a beard.Police Officer: Ah. The “Bearded Woman” has struck Again!Girl: The “Bearded Woman”?Police Officer: Well, this “bearded Woman” is a man. He dresses up like a woman and, for some unknown reasons, likes to take the left shoefrom his victims. He’s really harmless and usually returns the shoeto the crime scene a couple of days later.Girl: Hey, he can keep my shoe, and I’ll just take off my left shoe every time I walk through the park.1. F2. T3. F4. T 5 FTask 2: What's in the bags?A young man comes up to the border on his bicycle. He has two large bagsover his shoulders. The border guard stops him and says,” What’s in the bags?”“Sand,” answers the young man.The guard is a bit suspicious and asks the young man to open the bags for inspection. The guard empties the bags, but finds nothing in them but sand.Then he has the sand analyzed, only to discover that there is noting but pure sand in the bags. So the young man is allowed to ride across the border with his sandbags.A week later, the same young man presents himself at the border with hisbags. The guard asks,” What have you got?” “Sand,” says the young man.The guard does his thorough examination and discovers that the bags contain nothing but sand. He gives the sand back to the young man who then rides across the border on his bicycle with the sandbags.This happens every week for three years. Finally, the young man no longer appears at the border crossing. Many months go by and the border guard meets the young man in an expensive cafe.“Hey,” says the guard,” for three ears you were smuggling something through my crossing station. It’s driving me crazy. Just between you and me, what were you smuggling?” The young man drinks his coffee and says,“Bicycles.”1. B2.D3.C4.A5.CTask 3: Fighting identity theftIt is important to keep your personal information secure. Here are some waysto help you fight identity theft. After all, you don't want someone else to ruin your good credit rating and perhaps keep you from getting the loan you want to get.The first thing you want to do is to watch how much information you give out on the internet. For example, never put your credit number into an email. If you do make purchases online, you need to be careful. One way to be extra careful is to only use sites that offer a high level of encryption. Another way to be extra careful is to only use one credit card for all of your internet purchases. Make sure that credit card has a low limit.Another thing you have to do to help you avoid ID theft is to destroy your outgoing mail completely. Some thieves will pick up garbage, search through it, and pull out the credit card offers that you threw away because they were junk mail. Remember that a lot of your information is already there. All a thief has to do is forge your signature and mail the form back with a note that says you have changed your mailing address(to their address).The third way to avoid identity theft is to make sure that your mailbox is safe. Have a slot in your front door for the mail to fall through. Even though that is completely safe, it is still much safer than the post outside your front door.1. 1.give out2.number3.online4.sites5.credit card6.low7.outgoing8.thieve 9.offers 10.mailbox 11.front doorIV. Speaking OutModel 1 Bye-bye, bully!Se-Jin: john, do you mind if I ask you something?John: No, what is it?Se-Jin: you seem nervous. Is that big guy still bullying you?John: Yeah. Today he wanted me to give him some money. He even pushed me when I said no.Se-Jin: That’s terrible! You have to talk to a teacher about this.John: I thought about that, but I’m afraid that everyone will think I’m a coward.Se-Jin: your safety is more important than what other people think.John; But telling a teacher could make things worse. The big guy warned me not to .Se-Jin: Of course he did! He doesn’t want to get into trouble. Look, if you’re still worried, tell the teacher not to mention your name when she talksto him.John: Good idea. But I think I can deal with him on my own.SAMPLE DIALOGA: Hi, can I talk to you for a minute?B: Sure, what is it?A: You look worried. Are you still being bullied by that big boy in you class?B: Yeah. Today he asked me to help him cheat in the final exam.A: That’s too bad! You have to talk with your parents about it.B:I thought about that, but I’m afraid that other people will laugh at me if I turn to my parents for help.A: Don’t be silly. It’s more important to protect yourself.B: Maybe you are right. I should tell this to my parents, and they will give me some advice.Model 2 My house has been robbed!Operator: Colchester Police Station. Can I help you?Jane: I hope so. My house has been robbed.Operator: Where do you live?Jane: 2B Southbank Road.Operator: When did you discover the burglaryJane: When I got home from work. About five minutes ago.Operator: Was anything stolen?Jane: yes. All my jewelry’s gone, and my computer too. And they wrote dirty words all over my walls.Operator: How did they get in ?Jane: They forced the back door.Operator: An officer will be round in about half an hour. Please don't touch anything.SAMPLE DIALOGA: Broadway Police Station. May I help you?B: I hope so. My house has been broken into.A: Where do you live?B: 43 Main Street.A: When did you find out about the break-in?B: When we got home from the theater. About two minutes ago.A: How did they break in?B: They forced open the back door.A: Was anything stolen?B: Yes. All my cash in the drawer, and my mobile phone too. And they broke all the glass.A: OK, an officer will come in about 20 minutes. Please don’t leave fingerprints anywhere.Model 3 We should create harsher sentences forbootleggers.Jane: It’s about time that the government got tough with bootleggers. Their fake liquors have already killed several people.Peter: Yeah, that’s too high a price to pay. It’s almost a rip-off. The bootleggers use industrial alcohol to cut costs and increase profits.Jane: Perhaps we should cut taxes on liquor. With lower taxes, bootlegging will decrease.Peter: But that can create a new problem. That’s not in agreement with the WTO rules.Jane: I think through negotiation with other nations, perhaps we can cut taxes under the WTO framework.Peter: That may be tough. Perhaps a better solution is to create harsher sentences for bootleggers.Jane: I agree. Our country needs a special team to deal with this problem. Then we can crack down on bootlegging.SAMPLE DIALOGA: It’s time the government took stricter standards control on cosmetic products. The low quality cosmetics have caused various skin diseases among users.B: Yeah, the producers use harmful ingredients to lower costs and add profits.A: Perhaps taxes on cosmetics should be cut. With lower taxes, low quality cosmetic products will be less profitable and decrease.B: But there is a new problem. Cutting taxes goes against the WTO rules.A: I think by negotiating with other countries we can reduce taxes.B: That may be hard. Maybe the best idea is to take stricter standards controlon cosmetic products.A: I agree. We should have some regulations to keep a check on the production and marketing of cosmetic.V. Let’s TalkThe Oldest Bank RobberTexas police say they have arrested a 91-yeard-old man, J. L. Rountree who is accused of robbing a bank, probably making him the oldest bank robber in U.S. history.Police said Rountree, who was not armed, asked a teller to put money into a large envelope with the word “robbery” written on it. A witness took down on the license number of his car, and he was arrested on a highway about 15 miles outside the city.If he is proved guilty, Rountree will face from ten to twenty years in prison. He told police he needed the money, and he had a complaint against banks. Rountree left a prison in Florida, where he was the oldest prisoner in the state, about a year ago. Before that, he served a three-year sentence for a bank robbery in Florida in 1999.In a prison interview with a journalist, Rountree said he had been a businessman in Texas but had fallen on hard times. He said he robbed his first bank when he was about 80 because he wanted to revenge against banks.“A bank that I’d done business with had forced me into bankruptcy. I have never liked banks since,” he told the journalist.” I decided I would get even. And I have.”4 5 6 7 3 2 1Possible Retelling for the Teacher’s ReferenceAs the title suggests, the 90-year-old Henry Robert the Texas Police arrested may turn out to be the oldest bank robber in history. Let me describe him from the very beginning.When he was 80 years old he robbed his first bank in Florida because he wanted to get even with banks. For this robbery he received a three-year sentence in a Florida prison in 1999. A year ago he was set free. However, he continued with his outlaw career. In Texas, he robbed again, using an envelope labeled “Robbery”. He asked the teller to put money into the envelope. Unluckily for him, a witness took down the license number of hiscar that was parked outside. So he was arrested on a highway not far away from the city. He is now 90 years old, and therefore he is probably the oldest bank robber in American history. If proved guilty, he will be sentenced to ten to twenty years in prison.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Describing a RobberyDetective: Okay, Ms. Brown, just calm down. Could you start from the beginning and tell me what happened?Ms. Brown: Well, let’s see. I was sitting at the table near the window when two men rushed in and told everyone to freeze.Detective: Can you describe the man？Ms. Brown: One was tall and with a long coat on. The other was shorter in a red jacket.Detective: After they burst in what did they do?Ms. Brown Well. The tall one pointed his gun at the clerk and told him to open the cash register. The short one was watching the rest of us. Theclerk hesitated a minute and just then the restaurant manger came outof his office. That surprised the thieves.Detective: Yeah, let’s see… The manger’s name is Mr. Jackson. I guess he had the key to the safe?Ms. Brown: Yeah! That’s right! Because the thieves told him to open the safe.The short one went with him. As the manger turned to go back to theoffice, he told the clerk to cooperate with him.Detective: Did the boss open up the safe?Ms. Brown: Yeah, he went back into the office and opened it. He seemed pretty calm, not like the customers. I think that guy deserves a medalor something.Detective: You all do. Living through a robbery is a tough experience.1. freeze2. tall shorter red jacket3. his gun open the rest of the people4. key safe5. calm a medalTask 2: Who’s the Murderer?A passing police car heard loud screams and responded immediately. Whenthe police arrived at the scene, hey found Pete’s dead body in his backyard, with man knife wounds and blood everywhere. The officer immediately went to question the three neighbors that had been outside in the past thirty minutes.Blake Smith had just finished painting his porch when the officer came. A young, polite man, Blake wiped his hands on his clean jeans before shaking hands, and said,” I really didn’t see or hear anything,” he added apologetically. Nelson Brown had been in his garden, right next door to the victim’s yard. He said,” I was in and out of the house. Weeding.” His hands were dirty. Then he added,” Inside, I was repairing a chair, It all must have happened when I was indoors. Sorry.”Kenny Green’s story seemed less believable.” I was on a ladder, washing my windows,” the middle-aged man admitted. The officer could see that Kenny’s yard overlooked the victim’s. But Kenny claimed,” I never looked over into Pete’s yard, nor did I hear anything.”Now the officer believed that one of the guys was lying. Who was this man?1. 1.A2.D3.C4.D5. BTask 3: The theft of personal informationThe list of institutions where personal information was reported to have been stolen or lost this year is long, including many large banks, hospitals, universities and automobile stores. These places contain large numbers of precious records coveted by ID thieves. Even the Department of Justice is reported to have lost personal records when a laptop was stolen.The most common causes for these incidents are reported to be hacking and lost records. Also, the theft of personal records can be an inside job, where employees who have access to computer systems are tempted to steal large volumes of customer personal data records. This temptation can be real, because stolen personal data can sell anywhere from $10 to 60$ per record.Identity theft can be happening to you right now and you don't know it until the damage was done. Even more disturbing is that newborns and the elderly are often the favourite victims of identity thieves, because the abuse of their personal information can go on longer before it is found out.Today, the theft of personal records is more dangerous than the loss of personal information through the careless discarding of credit card receipts ormail.-5 F T T F FSpeakingProtecting Intellectual Property RightsRichard: I understand why publishing houses have called for a crack down on illegal copies ofbooks. It’s a big loss for them if everyone buys pirated books instead of paying the fullprice.Nancy: I agree. If the publishers don’t take action against illegal publications, they and theauthors of the books lose money. Then the publishers have to save money by loweringthe quality of their books.Richard: That’s why intellectual property rights have to be protected. It will do do good not onlyfor the publishers, but to consumers as well.Nancy: You said it. I’m all for protecting intellectual property rights. But I also think books aregetting more expensive every day, and some students have no choice but yo buy cheapbooks.Richard: I beg to disagree. There is no excuse for college kids to buy mobile phones and then saythey can’t afford books.Nancy: But to really solve the piracy problem, we need cheaper books as well as harsherpunishments.Power by YOZOSOFT。

第8单元II. Listening SkillsTo keep our children safe from those dangerous criminals, these tips might be helpful. First, children should be encouraged always to ask permission from their caregiver before they go anywhere .They should not only tell the care giver where they will be at all times, but also who will be looking after them. also, children should never walk or ride their bikes alone. Instead, they should travel in groups whenever possible. more importantly, children should be taught to stay away from strangers, though they may offer to show them a puppy or give them candy.children should be taught to say “no” and run, scream, or fight if necessary. moreover,children should be told that no problem is too big or too small to ask grown-ups. in fact,it is never too late to ask for help ,and to keep asking until they get the help they need. last but not least ,we should realize that many child-attack cases involve a family member or family friend, for example, a stepfather, sister’s boyfriend, babysitter, neighbor, and so on.III. Listening InTask 1: Robbing the Left ShoeGirl: Yes, I’d like to report a mugging.Police Officer:Okay. can you tell me exactly what happened?Girl:well, I was walking home from work when this woman knocked me right off my right off my feet, seized my stuff, and ran off. I was so scared that I didn’t goafter her.Police Officer:Can you describe the woman for me?Girl: Yeah. He is quite tall, about six foot three.Police Officer: Wait. You said a woman robbed you.Girl: Well, I’m not really sure.[Hmm.]You see, the person was wearing a white dress,a light red sweater over it ,and she or he was wearing a pair of basketball shoes. Police Officer: [Hmm] What else can you remember?Girl:Well, the person…had a beard.Police Officer: Ah. The “Bearded Woman” has struck Again!Girl:The “Bearded Woman”?Police Officer: Well, this “bearded Woman” is a man. He dresses up like a woman and, for some unknown reasons, likes to take the left shoe from his victims. He’s really harmlessand usually returns the shoe to the crime scene a couple of days later.Girl: Hey, he can keep my shoe, and I’ll just take off my left shoe every time I walk through the park.1. F2. T3. F4. T 5 FTask 2: SmugglingA young man comes up to the border on his bicycle. He has two large bags over his shoulders. Theborder guard stops him and says,” What’s in the bags?”“Sand,” answers the young man.The guard is a bit suspicious and asks the young man to open the bags for inspection. The guard empties the bags, but finds nothing in them but sand. Then he has the sand analyzed, only to discover that there is noting but pure sand in the bags. So the young man is allowed to ride across the border with his sandbags.A week later, the same young man presents himself at the border with his bags. The guard asks,”What have you got?”“Sand,” says the young man.The guard does his thorough examination and discovers that the bags contain nothing but sand. He gives the sand back to the young man who then rides across the border on his bicycle with the sandbags.This happens every week for three years. Finally, the young man no longer appears at the border crossing. Many months go by and the border guard meets the young man in an expensive cafe. “Hey,” says the guard,” for three ears you were smuggling something through my crossing station. It’s driving me crazy. Just between you and me, what were you smuggling?”The young man drinks his coffee and says, “Bicycles.”1. B2.D3.C4.A5.CTask 3: Who’s the Murderer?A passing police car heard loud screams and responded immediately. When the police arrived at the scene, hey found Pete’s dead body in his backyard, with man knife wounds and blood everywhere. The officer immediately went to question the three neighbors that had been outside in the past thirty minutes.Blake Smith had just finished painting his porch when the officer came. A young, polite man, Blake wiped his hands on his clean jeans before shaking hands, and said,” I really didn’t see or hear anything,” he added apologetically. Nelson Brown had been in his garden, right next door to the victim’s yard. He said,” I was in and out of the house. Weeding.” His hands were dirty. Then he added,” Inside, I was repairing a chair, It all must have happened when I was indoors. Sorry.”Kenny Green’s story seemed less believable.”I was on a ladder, washing my windows,”the middle-aged man admitted. The officer could see that Kenny’s yard overlooked the victim’s. But Kenny claimed,” I never looked over into Pete’s yard, nor did I hear anything.”Now the officer believed that one of the guys was lying. Who was this man?1.A2.B3.D4.C5.DIV. Speaking OutModel 1 Bye-bye, bully!Se-Jin: john, do you mind if I ask you something?John: No, what is it?Se-Jin: you seem nervous. Is that big guy still bullying you?John: Yeah.

You have to talk to a teacher about this.John: I thought about that, but I’m afraid that everyone will think I’m a coward.Se-Jin: your safety is more important than what other people think.John; But telling a teacher could make things worse. The big guy warned me not to .Se-Jin: Of course he did! He doesn’t want to get into trouble. Look, if you’re still worried, tell the teacher not to mention your name when she talks to him.John: Good idea. But I think I can deal with him on my own.SAMPLE DIALOGA: Hi, can I talk to you for a minute?B: Sure, what is it?A: You look worried. Are you still being bullied by that big boy in you class?B: Yeah. Today he asked me to help him cheat in the final exam.A: That’s too bad! You have to talk with your parents about it.B:I thought about that, but I’m afraid that other people will laugh at me if I turn to my parents for help.A: Don’t be silly. It’s more important to protect yourself.B: Maybe you are right. I should tell this to my parents, and they will give me some advice.Model 2 My house has been robbed!Operator: Colchester Police Station. Can I help you?Jane: I hope so. My house has been robbed.Operator: Where do you live?Jane: 2B Southbank Road.Operator: When did you discover the burglaryJane: When I got home from work. About five minutes ago.Operator: Was anything stolen?Jane: yes. All my jewelry’s gone, and my computer too.

Their fake liquors have already killed several people.Peter: Yeah, that’s too high a price to pay. It’s almost a rip-off. The bootleggers use industrial alcohol to cut costs and increase profits.Jane: Perhaps we should cut taxes on liquor. With lower taxes, bootlegging will decrease. Peter: But that can create a new problem. That’s not in agreement with the WTO rules.Jane: I think through negotiation with other nations, perhaps we can cut taxes under the WTO framework.Peter: That may be tough. Perhaps a better solution is to create harsher sentences for bootleggers.Jane: I agree. Our country needs a special team to deal with this problem. Then we can crack down on bootlegging.SAMPLE DIALOGA: It’s time the government took stricter standards control on cosmetic products. The low quality cosmetics have caused various skin diseases among users.B: Yeah, the producers use harmful ingredients to lower costs and add profits.A: Perhaps taxes on cosmetics should be cut. With lower taxes, low quality cosmetic products will be less profitable and decrease.B: But there is a new problem. Cutting taxes goes against the WTO rules.A: I think by negotiating with other countries we can reduce taxes.B: That may be hard.

Let’s TalkTexas Police Arrest Oldest Bank RobberTexas police say they have arrested a 90-yeard-old man, Henry Robert, who is accused of robbing a bank, probably making him the oldest bank robber in U.S. history.Police said Robert, who was not armed, asked a teller to put money into a large envelope with the word “robbery” written on it. A witness took down on the license number of his car, and he was arrested on a highway about 15 miles outside the city.If he is proved guilty, Robert will face from ten to twenty years in prison. He told police he neededthe money, and he had a complaint against banks.Robert left a prison in Florida, where he was the oldest prisoner in the state, about a year ago. Before that, he served a three-year sentence for a bank robbery in Florida in 1999.In a prison interview with a journalist, Robert said he had been a businessman in Texas but had fallen on hard times. He said he robbed his first bank when he was about 80 because he wanted to revenge against banks.“A bank that I’d done business with had forced me into bankruptcy. I have never liked banks since,” he told the journalist.” I decided I would get even. And I have.”7 4 5 6 8 3 2 1Possible Retelling for the Teacher’s ReferenceAs the title suggests, the 90-year-old Henry Robert the Texas Police arrested may turn out to be the oldest bank robber in history. Let me describe him from the very beginning.When he was 80 years old he robbed his first bank in Florida because he wanted to get even with banks. For this robbery he received a three-year sentence in a Florida prison in 1999. A year ago he was set free. However, he continued with his outlaw career. In Texas, he robbed again, using an envelope labeled “Robbery”. He asked the teller to put money into the envelope. Unluckily for him, a witness took down the license number of his car that was parked outside. So he was arrested on a highway not far away from the city. He is now 90 years old, and therefore he is probably the oldest bank robber in American history. If proved guilty, he will be sentenced to ten to twenty years in prison.VI.

The other was shorter in a red jacket. Detective: After they burst in what did they do?Janet: Well. The tall one pointed his gun at the clerk and told him to open the cash register.The short one was watching the rest of us.

As the manger turned to go back to the office, he told the clerk to cooperatewith him.Detective: Did the boss open up the safe?Janet: Yeah, he went back into the office and opened it. He seemed pretty calm, not like the customers. I think that guy deserves a medal or something.Sam: You all do.

They go to the police station to make a full report. Then, a police officer drives them back to the parking lot to see if any evidence can be found at the scene of the crime. To their surprise, the car has been returned. There is an envelope on the windshield with a note of apology and two tickets to a concert. The note reads, “I apologize for taking your car, but my wife was having a baby and I had to use your car to rush her to the hospital. Please forgive the inconvenience. Here are two tickets for tonight’s concert.” The couple feel relieved. After all, most human beings are kind, they think. They go to the concert and return home late. They find their house has been robbed. Valuable goods have been taken. And there is a note on the door reading, “Well, you still have your car. I have to put my newly-born kid through college somehow, don’t I?”1. B2. C3.A4. D5. ATask 3: Who stole the vase?Amy, the richest woman in town, threw a party. It was crowded and turned out to be a huge success, until about 12:00 a.m. That’s when Amy noticed that her valuable vase was missing from the entry hall table. When the police chief arrived, he asked each visitor to make a statement. Phillip McDonald stepped forward, saying, “I was one of the first to arrive, about the sane time as Julie Becker. I never once left the house. If people don’t remember me, it’s because I spent most of time in a bedroom, watching a basketball game.” The chief took down what Phillip’s said, then told him he could go. Rod Bush was the next. He also claimed that he had never left the house, though he did step out onto a second story balcony, but it was so cold that he came back in immediately. Julie Becker was the third to make a statement She also claimed never to have left or seen anything. “I spent much of the party moving from group to group and eating the various tables.” The chief told her to leave, too, and watched as she went into the hall and took her coat from the top of a crowded coat rack. Now the chief started to suspect one of the three guests.1.C2.D3.A4.B5.ASpeakingProtecting Intellectual Property RightsRichard: I understand why publishing houses have called for a crack down on illegal copies of books. It’s a big loss for them if everyone buys pirated books instead of paying the fullprice.Nancy: I agree. If the publishers don’t take action against illegal publications, they and the authors of the books lose money. Then the publishers have to save money by loweringthe quality of their books.Richard: That’s why intellectual property rights have to be protected. It will do do good not only for the publishers, but to consumers as well.Nancy: You said it. I’m all for protecting intellectual property rights. But I also think books are getting more expensive every day, and some students have no choice but yo buy cheapbooks.Richard: I beg to disagree. There is no excuse for college kids to buy mobile phones and then say they can’t afford books.Nancy: But to really solve the piracy problem, we need cheaper books as well as harsher punishments.。

He was born in Salzburg, Austria, in 1756. Before the age of four, he had shown great musical talent. His father then decided to let him start taking harpsichord lessons. The boy‟s reputation as a musical talent grew fast. At five, he was composing music. Form that time on, M o zart was performing n concerts and writing music. By his early teens, he had mastered the piano, violin and harpsichord, and was writing symphonies and operas. His first major opera was performed in Milan in 1770, when he was only fourteen. At fifteen, Mozart became the conductor for an orchestra in Salzburg. In 1781, he left for Vienna, where he was in great demand as both a performer and a composition teacher. His first opera was a success. But life was not easy because he was a poor businessman, and his finances were always in a bad state. His music from the next decade was not very popular, and he eventually fell back on his teaching jobs for a living. In 1788 he stopped performing in public, preferring only to compose. He died in 1791 at the age of thirty-five. Although he lived only a short life, he composed over 600 works.1. Which of the following is true of Mozart? D2. How long has Mozart‟s fame lasted? A3.

Let‟s TalkThe Origin of the Song “Happy Birthday to You”The story of the song “Happy Birthday to You”Began as a sweet one, but later became bitter. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at a kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the principal of the same school, wrote a song together for the children, entitled “Good Morning to All”. When Mildred combined her musical talents with her sister‟s knowledge in the area of kindergarten education, …Good Morning to All” was sure tobe a success. The sister published the song in a collection entitled “Song Stories of the Kindergarten” in 1893. Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty H i ll became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia University‟s Teachers College, a gentleman by the name Robert Coleman published the song, without the sisters‟permission. He added a second part, which is the familiar “Happy Birthday to You”.Mr. Coleman‟s addition of the second part made the song popular and, finally, the sisters”original first part disappeared. “Happy Birthday to You”had altogether replaced the sisters‟original song “Good Morning to All”. In 1916 Patty took legal action against Mr. Coleman. In court, she succeeded in proving that hey were the real owners of the song.1. teacher at a kindergarten2. Good Morning to All3.

There were two sisters: one was Mildred Hill, and the other Patty Hill. The former had great musical talents, while the latter had knowledge of kindergarten education. Bu combining their abilities, the two produced a song called“Good Morning to All”. It was a success, and later published in a collection of songs for kindergartens.Thirty-one years later a man named Coleman published the song without the sisters‟permission. To make things worse, he added a second part, which is the present “Happy Birthday to You”. This new song soon became popular and eventually it replaced the sisters‟first part altogether. Then, in 1916, Patty took legal action against Coleman.I n court she managed to prove that she and her sister really owned the song.VI.

F3.T4.T5.FTask 2: When was music first sent down a telephone line?So you think downloading music from the Internet through a phone line is a really cool modern thing? Not so. In 1896, Thaddeus Cahill Filed a patent on the instrument for transmitting music electronically, and until 1914 he sent music signals down telephone lines with this instrument. And he wasn‟t even the first. Elisha Gray transmitted music over a telephone line in 1876, which was the same year the telephone was invented. Gray invented the first electronic music instrument in 1874, calling it the “Musical Telegraph”. Alexander Graham Bell also designed an experimental“Electric Harp”for speech to be transmitted over a telephone line using technology similar to Gray‟s. Bell was a speech teacher for the deaf. In 1879 he created an instrument to measure hearing loss. That is why the degrees of loudness came to be measured in bels or decibels.5-4-2-1-3Task 3: Thank You for the MusicI‟m nothing special, in fact I‟m a bit of a boreIf I tell a joke, you‟re probably heard it beforeBut I have a talent, a wonderful thing…Cause everyone listens when I start to singI‟m so grateful and proudAll I want is to sing it out loudSo I sayThank you for the music, the songs I‟m singingThanks for all the joy they‟re bringingWho can live without it, I ask in all honestlyWhat would life beWithout a song or a dance what are weSo I say thank you for the musicFor giving it to meMother says I was a dancer before I could walkShe says I began to sing long before I could talkAnd I‟ve often wondered, how did it all startWho found out that nothing can capture a heartLike a melody canWell, whoever it was, I‟m a fanSo I sayThank you for the music, the songs I‟m singing…SpeakingMusical MemoriesTony: Listen!

That‟s the Elton John song from the movie.Nancy: I still can‟t understand why it‟s so important to you.Tony: Because it was the first movie I ever saw with my grandma and because I really loved spending time with her. It is my favorite song of all times! Nancy: The first time Tom and I went on a date, we went to see Titanic. I always think of the song “My Heart Will Go On” as our song!

The boy heard that the writer J.K. Rowling has written the latest book, which is Book Seven, though the girl is still waiting for Book Five. The boy has been the trailer and believes the film will be scary. The girl shares that view because of the writing on the wall in blood.Task 2: A Great ActorThere was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After several years of searching, he finally found a theater that was willing to give him a try. The director said, “This is the most important part, and it has only one line. At the opening you walk onto stage carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, smell it deeply and then say the line on praise of the rose: …Ah, the sweet smell of my love.‟” The actor was excited. All day long before the play he practiced his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, looked at the audience, and with great emotion said the line, “Ah, the sweet smell of my love.”The audience exploded in laughter. Only the director was furious! “Ahhhhhh! You damned fool!”he cried. “You‟ve ruined my play! You‟ve ruined me!”The actor was puzzled, “What happened? Did I forget my line?”“No!” shouted the director. “You forget the rose!”1.D2.C3.D4.A5.BTask 3: Movie ReviewsI love movies! And after I see them, I like to comment on them. These are movies I saw this year I would like to recommend: Among comedies I highly recommend “Monsoon Wedding”. It‟s an Indian movie. The story is about an Indian wedding. Preparations for the wedding bring out funny and sad situations touching on love and a past rape. This movie shows some of the wonderful customs of India, and the importance of family and love. It‟s great!Among dramas, I like “Adaptation”. It is an excellent movie! But for me the first part of the movie was too fast to follow. I hope to see it again on DVD with captions.“The Pianist”is set in the Second World War. It‟s about a young Polish-Jewish pianist, who lives in Warsaw with his family. The Nazis sent his family to die in the concentration camps. He was safe, but would have died without unusually good luck and the kindness of a few non-Jews. This is a powerful movie with thought-provoking themes.“Rabbit-Proof Fence”is set in the 1930s in Australia, and it‟s based on real events. It is about three native girls who are separated from their families by the racist police who send them to special centers. There the girls are taught practical skills, and the government tries to integrate them into white Australian society. They can away from the camp and walked 1,500 miles to find their mothers.

But I think this Star Wars episode was incredible!Laura: Why do you think so?John: Well, one of the most spectacular things about it was the special effects. State-of-the-artspecial effects were the main reason for the success of the previous episodes. Laura: You‟re right. The special effects were amazing! And I like the fact that they created somany fantastic settings and other-worldly costumes, weapons and creatures.

But I think The Lion King was unbelievably good.B: I thought it was just OK. Why do you think so?A: Well, it‟s so interesting that the lives of the lions were similar to the lives of human beings.B: You‟re right. The murder in The Lion King was almost the same as the murder in the Shakespearean play Hamlet.Model 3 The plot is first-class.John: It‟s kind of cool that they still used the same Star Wars theme song for this movie.Laura: Yeah! It just reminds me of the previous Star Wars scenes.John: I know exactly what you mean! Hearing that song makes me think of the past. Laura: I think the plot was first-class. But I don‟t think the character development was that strong.John: Do you think that has anything to do with the casting of the movie? Laura: No, the casting was great; the actors are excellent, but I think the acting was a little weak. They just didn‟t have a lot of funny or meaningful lines. John: Well, maybe, but I liked the little kid that played “Skywalker”. I can‟t imagine anyone else playing that part.Laura: Yeah, I liked him too. He‟s soooo cute!Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: What do you think about the movie?B: I think the plot was first-class.

But the acting was rather poor. And the lines are not interesting at all.A: Well, maybe. But I liked the heroine of the movie. She is excellent.B: Yeah, I liked her too. She‟s adorable!V. Let‟s TalkAlfred HitchcockAlfred Hitchcock was a British director. His movies frequently show innocent people caught up in situations beyond their control or even understanding.Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense in his movies. In surprise, the director provides the viewer with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the movie do not know, and then skillfully builds up tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth. Hitchcock had a great sense of humor. Once at a French airport, a suspicious customs official looked at Hitchcock‟s passport, which was marked simply PRODUCER. The curious official asked, “And what do you produce?”“Gooseflesh.”replied Hitchcock.Alfred Hitchcock always managed to make a brief appearance in his movies: He was sometimes getting on a bus, or crossing a street, pr walking in front of a store, or across the courtyard in an apartment. However, for the movie Lifeboat in 1944, he was faced with a difficult problem. The entire movie was set in a lifeboat out at sea, and there were only a few characters in the boat. Originally, he wanted to float by as a dead body, but he was afraid he‟d sink! His clever solution was to place a photograph of himself in a newspaper that one of the characters read during the course of the movie.1. A2.C3.DVI.

A friend of his told him about a small part in a play. He promised Peter that he could do it because he‟s only have to remember one line. Peter decided to take the part. His only line was, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Peter practiced and practiced, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” On the opening night of the play Peter was very nervous. Backstage, he practiced his line, over and over again, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!Listen, I hear the guns roar!”Finally came his turn, Peter went onto stage.

RowlingQ: How did you get the idea for Harry Potter?A: I was traveling on a train between Manchester and London and the idea for Harry just fell into my head. At that point it was essentially the idea for a body who didn‟t know he was a wizard.Q: Did you always plan to write Harry‟s story in more than one book? If so, how many? A: I always conceived it as a seven-book series because I decided that it would take seven years, from age eleven to seventeen, inclusive, to train as a wizard, and each of the books would deal with one year of Harry‟s life at the school. Q: Any clues about the next book?A: I don‟t want to i\give anything away, but I tell you that the books are getting darker. Harry‟s going to have quite a bit to deal with as he gets older. Sorry if they get too scary!Q: Of the many things you must have heard people say about Harry Potter, what are some of your favorites?A: My very favorite was from a twelve-year-old Scottish girl who came to hear me read at the Edinburgh book festival. At the end of the festival, the queue for signing was very long. When the girl finally reached me, she said, “I didn‟t WANT there to be so many people here, because this is MY books!” That is exactly how I feel about my favorite books. Nobody else has a right to know them; let alone like them!1.T2.F3.F4.T5.FTask 3: The Secret of the Next Harry Potter BookThe Harry Potter books rapidly became one of the most in-demand book series among young readers and have earned large sums of money.

He was born in Salzburg, Austria, in 1756. Before the age of four, he had shown great musical talent. His father then decided to let him start taking harpsichord lessons. The boy’s reputation as a musical talent grew fast. At five, he was composing music. Form that time on, Mozart was performing n concerts and writing music. By his early teens, he had mastered the piano, violin and harpsichord, and was writing symphonies and operas. His first major opera was performed in Milan in 1770, when he was only fourteen. At fifteen, Mozart became the conductor for an orchestra in Salzburg. In 1781, he leftfor Vienna, where he was in great demand as both a performer and a composition teacher. His first opera was a success. But life was not easy because he was a poor businessman, and his finances were always in a bad state. His music from the next decade was not very popular, and he eventually fell back on his teaching jobs for a living. In 1788 he stopped performing in public, preferring only to compose. He died in 1791 at the age of thirty-five. Although he lived only a short life, he composed over 600 works.1. Which of the following is true of Mozart? D2. How long ha s Mozart’s fame lasted? A3.

Let’s TalkThe Origin of the Song “Happy Birthday to You”The story of the song “Happy Birthday to You” Began as a sweet one, but later became bitter. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at a kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the principal of the same school, wrote a song together for the children, entitled “Good Morning to All”. When Mildred combined her m usical talents with her sister’s knowledge in the area of kindergarten education, ‘Good Morning to All” was sure to be a success. The sister published the song in a collection entitled “Song Stories of the Kindergarten” in 1893. Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia University’s Teachers College, a gentleman by the name Robert Coleman published the song, without the sisters’ permission. He added a second part, which is the famili ar “Happy Birthday to You”. Mr. Coleman’s addition of the second part made the song popular and, finally, the sisters” original first part disappeared. “Happy Birthday to You” had altogether replaced the sisters’ original song “Good Morning to All”. In 1916 Patty took legal action against Mr. Coleman. In court, she succeeded in proving that hey were the real owners of the song.1.teacher at a kindergarten2.Good Morning to All3.Happy Birthday to You4.Happy Birthday to You Good Morning to AllPossib le Retelling for the Teacher’s ReferenceThe story of “Happy Birthday to You” was a nice, sweet on eat the very beginning, but later turned into a bitter one. There were two sisters: one was Mildred Hill, and the other Patty Hill. The former had great musical talents, while the latter had knowledge of kindergarten education. Bu combining their abilities, the two produced a song called “Good Morning to All”. It was a success, and later published in a collection of songs for kindergartens.Thirty-one years later a man named Coleman published the song without the sisters’ permission. To make things worse, he added a second part, which is the present “Happy Birthday to You”. This new song soon became popular and eventually it replaced the sisters’ first part alt ogether. Then, in 1916, Patty took legal action against Coleman. In court she managed to prove that she and her sister really owned the song.VI.

In China, karaoke is a very popular way for friendsro spend time together. We can select the music that ur group enjoys. We mostly sing pop songs.Laura: Do you sing individually or in groups? Singing is not a very in thing, so I don’t sing very well.1. F2. F3.T4.T5.FTask 2: When was music first sent down a telephone line?So you think downloading music from the Internet through a phone line is a really cool modern thing? Not so. In 1896, Thaddeus Cahill Filed a patent on the instrument for transmitting music electronically, and until 1914 he sent music signals down telephone lines with this instrument. And he wasn’t even the first. Elisha Gray transmitted music over a telephone line in 1876, which was the same year the telephone was invented. Gray invented the first electronic music instrument in 1874, calling it the “Musical Telegraph”. Alexander Graham Bell also designed an experimental “Electric Harp” for speech to be transmitted over a telephone line using technology similar to Gray’s. Bell was a speech teacher for the deaf. In 1879 he created an instrument to measure hearing loss. That is why the degrees of loudness came to be measured in bels or decibels.5-4-2-1-3Task 3: Thank You for the MusicI’m nothing special, in fact I’m a bi t of a boreIf I tell a joke, you’re probably heard it beforeBut I have a talent, a wonderful thing‘Cause everyone listens when I start to singI’m so grateful and proudAll I want is to sing it out loudSo I sayThank you for the music, the songs I’m singingThanks for all the joy they’re bringingWho can live without it, I ask in all honestlyWhat would life beWithout a song or a dance what are weSo I say thank you for the musicFor giving it to meMother says I was a dancer before I could walkShe says I began to sing long before I could talkAnd I’ve often wondered, how did it all startWho found out that nothing can capture a heartLike a melody canWell, whoever it was, I’m a fanSo I sayThank you for the music, the songs I’m singing…Unit2II.

The boy heard that the writer J.K. Rowling has written the latest book, which is Book Seven, though the girl is still waiting for Book Five. The boy has been the trailer and believes the film will be scary. The girl shares that view because of the writing on the wall in blood. Task 2: A Great ActorThere was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After several years of searching, he finally found a theater that was willing to give him a try. The director said, “This is the most important part, and it has only one line. At the opening you walk onto stage carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, smell it deeply and then say the line on praise of the rose: ‘Ah, the sweet smell of my love.’” The actor was excited. All day long before the play he practiced his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, looked at the audience, and with great emotion said the line, “Ah, the sweet smell ofmy love.” The audience exploded in laughter. Only the director was furious! “Ahhhhhh! You damned fool!” he cried. “You’ve ruined my play! You’ve ruined me!” The actor was puzzled, “What happened? Did I forget my line?” “No!” shouted the director. “You forget the rose!”1.D2.C3.D4.A5.BTask 3: Movie ReviewsI love movies! And after I see them, I like to comment on them. These are movies I saw this year I would like to recommend: Among comediesI highly recommend “Monsoon Wedding”. It’s an Indian movie. The storyis about an Indian wedding. Preparations for the wedding bring out funny and sad situations touching on love and a past rape. This movie shows some of the wonderful customs of India, and the importance of family and love. It’s great!Among dramas, I like “Adaptation”. It is an excellent movie! But for me the first part of the movie was too fast to follow. I hope to seeit again on DVD with captions.“The Pianist” is set in the Second World War. It’s about a young Polish-Jewish pianist, who lives in Warsaw with his family. The Nazis sent his family to die in the concentration camps. He was safe, but would have died without unusually good luck and the kindness of a few non-Jews. Thisis a powerful movie with thought-provoking themes.“Rabbit-Proof Fence” is set in the 1930s in Australia, and it’s based on real events. It is about three native girls who are separated from their families by the racist police who send them to special centers. There the girls are taught practical skills, and the government tries to integrate them into white Australian society. They can away from the camp and walked 1,500 miles to find their mothers.

But I think this Star Wars episode was incredible! Laura: Why do you think so?John: Well, one of the most spectacular things about it was the special effects. State-of-the-artspecial effects were the main reason for the success of the previous episodes.Laura: You’re right. The special effects were amazing! And I like the fact that they created somany fantastic settings and other-worldly costumes, weapons and creatures.Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: What did you think about The Lion King?B: Well… I think this cartoon was pretty good, but not as good as Beauty and the Beast.

But I don’t think the character development was that strong.John: Do you think that has anything to do with the casting of the movie?

Let’s TalkAlfred HitchcockAlfred Hitchcock was a British director. His movies frequently show innocent people caught up in situations beyond their control or even understanding.Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense in his movies. In surprise, the director provides the viewer with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the movie do not know, and then skillfully builds up tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth. Hitchcock had a great sense of humor. Once at a French airport, a suspicious customs official looked at Hitchcock’s passport, which was marked simply PRODUCER. The curious official asked, “And what do you produce?” “Gooseflesh.” replied Hitchcock.Alfred Hitchcock always managed to make a brief appearance in his movies: He was sometimes getting on a bus, or crossing a street, pr walkingin front of a store, or across the courtyard in an apartment. However, for the movie Lifeboat in 1944, he was faced with a difficult problem. The entire movie was set in a lifeboat out at sea, and there were only a few characters in the boat. Originally, he wanted to float by as a dead body, but he was afraid he’d sink! His clever solution was to p lace a photograph of himself in a newspaper that one of the characters read during the course of the movie.1. A2.C3.DVI.

His only line was, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Peter practiced and practiced, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” On the opening night of the play Peter was very nervous. Backstage, he practiced his line, over and over again, “Listen, I hear the guns roar! Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Finally came his turn, Peter went onto stage.

RowlingQ: How did you get the idea for Harry Potter?A: I was traveling on a train between Manchester and London and the idea for Harry just fell into my head. At that point it was essentially the idea for a body who didn’t know he was a wizard.Q: Did you always plan to write Harry’s story in more than one book? If so, how many?A: I always conceived it as a seven-book series because I decided that it would take seven years, from age eleven to seventeen, inclusive, to train as a wizard, and each of the books would deal with one year of Harry’s life at the school.Q: Any clues about the next book?A: I don’t want to i\give anything away, but I tell you that the books are getting darker. Harry’s going to have quite a bit to deal with as he gets older. Sorry if they get too scary!Q: Of the many things you must have heard people say about Harry Potter, what are some of your favorites?A: My very favorite was from a twelve-year-old Scottish girl who came to hear me read at the Edinburgh book festival. At the end of the festival, the queue for signing was very long. When the girl finally reached me, she said, “I didn’t WANT there to be so many people here, because this is MY books!” That is exactly how I feel about my favorite books.
