综合英语第二册单元13
Unit 13Main IdeaThe text mainly tells us a story happened to a Chinese couple living in French Guadeloupe. They lived in a world where Chinese custom and culture are not well taken notice of. The author recalled the happiness of the lunar new years she’d been through in her hometown when she was young, and decided to create a Caribbean Spring Festival in this western culture dominated island. The whole celebration was imbued with fun and happiness and a kind of feeling that had been lost for more than 20 years. They’ve even been invited to give talks on Chinese culture. This made them feel the urge to learn more about their motherland.Creating a Caribbean Spring Festivalby Yi YenchunPara 1[ summary] The writer recalls how her family celebrated the Chinese Lunar New Year when she was little.[author] Yi Yenchun, a writer from Taiwan, is now living on French Guadeloupe in Latin America. The original article was written in Chinese, translated by Daniel Rote.1. I remember when I was little, right before the Lunar New Year we’d make an offering to the Kitchen God.make an offering: contribute (to the Kitchen God)offering : things offered, especially as a gift or contribution. 提供之物，由指礼物，奉献之物He gave him a box of chocolates as a peace offering.Yesterday they made offerings to the departed spirit.Lunar New Year: It refers to the traditional new year according to Chinese calendar lunar: lunar month, means the average time between one new moon and the next. Cf:calendar month: period of time from a certain date in a month to the same date in the next one.2.Mom always told us not to jabber, and that we should eat some sweets, so as to speak some sweet words.jabber: v. talk rapidly in what seems to be a confused manner 急促而含混不清地说话n. jabbering, chatterListen to those children jabbering away! 你听那些孩子叽叽喳喳地说过不停！You can hear the jabber of monkeys at the foot of mountain at night.so as to do sth.: with the intention of doing sth.He left a message so as to be sure of contacting her.Cf. so… as to do sth.: to the extent that one does sth.She was so kind as to phone a taxi for me.3. There should be no fighting or disturbances so as not to cause the Kitchen God to report unfavourably on our family to the Jade Emperor in Heaven. [paraphrase] While making an offer to the Kitchen God, we should not fight or disturb, or the Kitchen God would give an unfavourable report to the Jade Emperor in Heaven.the Jade Emperor:The Jade Emperor is the king of all the gods in Chinesemythology. (玉皇大帝)report unfavourably on our family: to report against our family, i.e. to speak ill of our family4. Before New Year’s Eve, Mom had already started the busy process of making New Year foods like steamed buns, both stuffed and plain. Meanwhile Dad prepared the New Year couplet.steamed buns, both stuffed and plain:“stuffed” buns refer to buns with other food or flavour inside, while “plain” ones refer to those without anything else inside. couplet: two successive lines of verse of equal length. In the text, it refers to those typical used for celebrating the Chinese Lunar New Year, attaching to both sides of one’s family door.春联5. The big streets and hidden alleys of my hometown were swarming with people at this time of the year.swarm with sb. / sth.: (of a place) be (unpleasantly) crowded with or full of (people or things)The beach is swarming with bathers. The table swarmed with flies.6. Shop fronts were piled up with all sorts of foods and gifts appropriate for the New Year’s holiday.shop fronts: the part of the shops facing the streetpile up: 1)(meaning in the text) increase in quantity; accumulateEvidence was piling up against them.Her debts are piling up and she has no money to pay them.2) (of a number of vehicles) crash into each other, especially each hitting the one in front.appropriate for / to sth.: suitable, right and properSports clothes are not appropriate for a formal wedding.7. Last but not least, one of my happiest memories was of the New Year’s dinner and especially of the money handed out to us kids in red envelopes.l ast but not least: use before the final item in a list, means last but no less important than the others. 最后但同样重要的red envelope:红包(or called 压岁钱in some localities)hand sth. out to sb.: distribute sth.Relief workers were handing out emergency rations to the survivors. 救济人员在向生还者分发紧急配给品。

Task 1A young man went into a car showroom. He was wearing rubber boots and a dirty jacket. He needed a haircut badly and was unshaven. The young man examined an expensive car carefully and then turned to speak to the salesman."How much does this car cost?" he asked."One thousand two hundred and eighteen pounds," the salesman said."I'll have sixteen of them," the young man said. The salesman smiled. He found it hard to be polite. " You are joking, of course," he said. "I'm afraid we can't help you. This car is not for sale."The salesman showed his customer the door and the young man left the shop without a word. He went to a showroom on the other side of the street and asked for sixteen cars.The second salesman was polite and helpful. The young man took a bundle of notes out of his pocket and paid for the cars in cash. He explained that the cars were for himself and his fifteen colleagues. He said that he and his colleagues worked on a Norwegian fishing-boat. " We have all earned a lot of money this season," the man said, "and we want to buy cars."Naturally, the second salesman was delighted.Task 2Lucy: Excuse me.Stallholder: Yes, Miss?Lucy: How much do you want for this plate? Let me see. Oh, yes... that's a lovely example of Victorian brass.Stallholder: It's worth twenty quid.Lucy: Twenty pounds! Oh, that's too much for me. It's a pity. It's really nice.Stallholder: Ah, I said it's worth twenty quid. I'm only asking fifteen for it.Lucy: Fifteen pounds?Stallholder: Yes. It's a real bargain.Lucy: Oh, I'm sure it is, but I can't afford that!Stallholder: Well, look... just for you, I'll make it fourteen quid. I can't go any lower than that. Lucy: I'll give you ten.Stallholder: Ten! Come on, love. You must be joking! I paid more than that for it myself. Fourteen. It's worth every penny.Lucy: Well, perhaps I could give you eleven.Stallholder: Thirteen. That's my final offer.Lucy: Twelve.Stallholder: Twelve fifty.Lucy: All right, twelve fifty.Stallholder: There you are, love. You've got a real bargain there.Lucy: Yes, thank you very much.Task 3Alex: Good morning.Cashier: Good morning.Alex: I would... I would like to know how to make out this check.Cashier: Right. Erm... do you want to draw out some money?Alex: Yes, ￡20.Cashier: ￡20 okay. [Yes.] Well, the first thing you need to do is to write today's date in the top right-hand corner where you see the line, [Yes.] at the top you write just today's date [Yes.] and the year. You must put the year in. And if you want to draw out money after it says pay... can you see over on the left-hand side?Alex: The first... er... line?Cashier: That's it. On the first line it says PAY and you write "Cash" afterwards.Alex: In letters?Cashier: Yes. C-A-S-H [Yes.] you write cash. Okay. Then underneath that, right underneath, you have to write the amount of money you want. So just 20 pounds and then you write ONLY at the end in words. Then at the end of that line where you can see the box, see over on the right-hand side, you have to write the amount you want in numbers [In numbers?]. Mmmm. [Yes.] And then underneath that box, the last thing you have to do in the bottom right-hand corner is just write your signature.Alex: Thank you very much.Cashier: Okay. Bye-bye then.Alex: Bye.Task 4Cashier: Next?Li: I'm next.Cashier: Let's see now. You have one family-size tube of tooth paste: $1.09. Three bars of soap: $.85. A tube of shampoo: $1.39. A bottle of aspirin: $.79. One box of Kleenex: $.99. A comb: $.29. One stick of deodorant: $.98. A tube of shaving cream: $.89. A package of razor blades: $.69. That's $7.56, and 8 percent sales tax. Total: $8.16.Li: Here's a 10-dollar bill.Cashier: Got 16￠, Mister?Li: Just a minute. I'll look. Yes. Here you are, 16￠.Cashier: Thanks. Here's your change. Next, please. Please step up.Li: Excuse me, Miss. You gave me $1 in change. My bill was $8.16 and I gave you a 10-dollar bill. Cashier: Oh, yeah. Sorry, Mister. Here's your buck. Next, please.Task 5The US government prints paper money in the following denominations: $10,000; $5,000; $1,000; $500; $100; $50; $20; $10; $5 and $1.You, and almost everybody else, will never see some of these bills; twenties, tens, fives and ones are the most commonly used. You will find a picture of George Washington on the $1 bill,Abraham Lincoln on the $5, Alexander Hamilton on the $10 and Andrew Jackson on the $20. There are also pictures on the back: the White House on the $20, the Treasury Building on the $10, the Lincoln Memorial on the $5 and a big "ONE" and the American insignia on the $1. However, all paper bills are the same size and the same green color, so you have to look carefully before handing someone money and when receiving change. Your best bet is to forget the pictures and concentrate on the large numbers in all four corners of the front and back.Money in general is referred to as: "cash", "bucks", "dough", "bread", "moolah", "greenbacks", etc. A one-dollar bill is most often called "a dollar", "a single", "a buck" or "a bill"; a five-dollar bill is "five dollars", "a fiver", "a five spot" or "five bucks". Five singles make five dollars. A ten-dollar bill might be "a ten", "ten bucks" or a "ten spot".There are, of course, 100 cents in a dollar. Coins come in the following denominations: $.01 or 1￠; $.05 or 5￠; $.10 or 10￠; $.25 or 25￠; and $.50 or 50￠. They are referred respectively to a penny, a cent, or one cent; a nickel or five cents; a dime or ten cents; a quarter, two bits or twenty-five cents; and a fifty-cent piece.Coins are called "change", "small change" or "silver", though they aren't made of silver anymore. Coins are generally recognized by their size, but somebody "goofed" on the dime, which is smaller than either a nickel or a penny. All the others are in size order.Task 6We have a rule of thumb: "Don't carry around any more cash than you can afford to have stolen." This means we don't carry most of our weekly or monthly wage around in our pockets, and we don't leave it at home where it might easily be stolen.Furthermore, we have to pay certain bills every month. We don't want to travel around the city with hundreds of dollars in cash to pay these bills, nor do we want to waste the time and carfare. So we need bank accounts. And so do you.The kinds of savings and checking accounts available in the US are numerous and complex, but as you will have only a small amount of money to deal with each month, your choices are limited. Let us recommend to you an account that is both a savings and a checking account in one. Though they are called by a wide variety of names—each bank gives its account a different name—they all follow essentially the same pattern. We think that savings banks generally give slightly better deals to people like you with little money, but you should ask people in your area what's the best, cheapest and most convenient. Often commercial banks have many, many more offices in a city or town, and that makes banking easier for you.How does all this work? You receive your monthly money from the Chinese government, probably in the form of a check, a piece of paper with your name on it and the amount you are entitled to, say $420. You sign your name on the back of the check, mark it "for deposit only" and deposit the money in your account. Then you withdraw, say, $50 to pay for groceries, carfare and other daily expenses, "spending money" or "pocket money". The remaining $370 will earn about5 percent interest from the day it is deposited until the day you take it out. In this way, your interest on the savings account may be enough money to cover the cost of the account, generally about $4 per month or 15￠for every check you write.By about the 10th of every month you should have received in the mail all your bills-the rent, the gas and electricity, the phone, perhaps a doctor or dentist bill, etc. You sit down with your check book and write a check to pay each person. Put each check in the proper envelope, which generally has a return envelope with it, stamp them and mail them. You add up the checks—let's say it's $220, and go to your bank. With a small plastic card you can give a computer directions regarding your account: you can tell the computer to transfer $220 from your savings to your checking account. That $220 will no longer earn any interest; it will sit in your checking account until the landlord and the others take your checks and deposit them in their banks. Then, the proper amount will be deducted from your checking account and everybody will be happy. If your original $50 cash runs out, you can take your little plastic card and ask the computer to give you some cash. The computer will oblige as long as you have the amount you're asking for in your account. If you don't—computers are very smart!Task 7This system of buying goods became very common during the first half of the twentieth century. Today a large proportion of all the families in Great Britain buy furniture, household goods and cars by hire purchase. In the USA, the proportion is much higher than in Great Britain, and people there spend over 10 percent of their income on hire purchase installments.The goods bought by hire purchase are, in almost every case, goods that will last-radio and television sets, washing machines, refrigerators, motor-cars and motor-cycles, and articles of furniture.The price of an article bought in this way is always higher than the price that would be paid in cash. There is a charge for interest. The buyer pays a proportion, perhaps one quarter or one third, of the price when the goods are delivered to him. He then makes regular payments, weekly or monthly, until the full price has been paid. The legal ownership of the goods remains with the seller until the final payment has been made.Hire purchase has advantages and disadvantages. It helps newly married couples with small incomes to furnish their homes. It increases the demand for goods, and in this way helps trade and employment. If families are paying each month installments on such household goods as a washing machine and a car, they spend less money, or perhaps no money, in useless or perhaps harmful ways, for example, on too much alcohol.There is, however, the danger that when trade is bad, hire purchase buying may end suddenly and make trade much worse, with, as a result, a great increase in unemployment. This is why, in some countries, the government controls hire purchase by fixing the proportion of the first payments and the installments.Task 8Bank Manager: Now, Miss Andrews, how much do you actually want to deposit with us in your new account?Helen Andrews: Well, it's just around two thousand pounds that I won on the premium bonds. Bank Manager: Right. I now need your full name and address.Helen Andrews: Helen Andrews. 33 Bedford Road.Bank Manager: Helen Andrews. Would you please spell that?Helen Andrews: A-N-D-R-E-W-S.Bank Manager: Address?Helen Andrews: 33 Bedford, that's B-E-D-F-O-R-D.Bank Manager: So 33 Bedford...Helen Andrews: Road, London E14.Bank Manager: Right, er... now do you want a deposit or a current account?Helen Andrews: Well, I want to be able to take my money out at any time.Bank Manager: I see. So you probably want a current account.Helen Andrews: Well, if you say so. I've only had a post office savings account until now.Bank Manager: Well, with a current account you can... have a cheque book, or you can come into the bank and take the money out as you like. Of course, there's no interest on a current account. Helen Andrews: None at all?Bank Manager: No. If you put it into a seven days' deposit account, of course, you get interest, but in a current account, none.Helen Andrews: Well, most people have current accounts, don't they?Bank Manager: Well, they do if they've not got an awful lot of money and they need to use it regularly. Er... so that's probably the best thing for you.Helen Andrews: Well, you'll give me a cheque book, won't you?Bank Manager: I'll give you a cheque book immediately, yes, er...Helen Andrews: Do you need my signature?Bank Manager: Ah yes we'll need er... two or three specimen signatures...Helen Andrews: Okay. And I will get a cheque card... I mean one of those cards which I'm allowed to use for up to fifty pounds a day?Bank Manager: Er, er, now we don't actually give a check card until you've had an account with us for six months.Helen Andrews: Six months?Bank Manager: Yes, we have to see how the account's going, you see.Helen Andrews: But that's crazy. I mean I used to work in a shop and we'd never accept cheques without a cheque card. I mean no one will accept my money.Bank Manager: Well, er... this is how we work, I'm afraid.Helen Andrews: Well, I'll have to reconsider everything again, I think. I had no idea you were as strict as this...Task 9The British have only had decimal currency for a very short time. In fact it was only introduced in 1971. Before that, there were 12 pence in a shilling and 20 shillings in a pound. Now, of course,there are 100 pence in a pound, and Britain is more like its European neighbours.Like other countries, Britain has both coins and notes. The common notes are five pounds and ten pounds. The ￡20 note came out in 1970 and the ￡50 note has been around since 1981.There are several coins. The country stopped making the 1/2 pence in 1984. The 1p (or one penny) is the smallest coin. Like the 2p it is made of copper. There are two types of 5p and two types of 10p. The 5p coins before 1971 have the words "one shilling" on them. The 10p coins before 1971 have the words "two shillings" on them. Both the one shilling coin and the 5p coin have the same value.Other coins are the 20p, the 50p and the ￡1 coin. The 20p and the 50p coins are made of copper and nickel. The ￡1 coin has been around since 1983 and the ￡1 note was discontinued in 1984, but people will continue to use it for some time. The coin is not very popular as it is very small.Task 10An old man died and left his son a lot of money. But the son was a foolish young man, and he quickly spent all the money, so that soon he had nothing left. Of course, when that happened, all his friends left him. When he was quite poor and alone, he went to see Nasreddin, who was a kind, clever old man who often helped people when they had troubles."My money has finished and my friends have gone," said the young man."What will happen to me now?""Don't worry, young man," answered Nasreddin. "Everything will soon be all right again. Wait and you will soon feel much happier."The young man was very glad. "Am I going to get rich again then?" he asked Nasreddin."No, I didn't mean that," said the old man. "I meant that you would soon get used to being poor and to having no friends."。

Theme of the Text
• This story focuses on the real cause of the Subprime Mortgage Crisis in America. Contrary to general views, the author believes the crisis was triggered by a deep cultural predisposition (倾向) that leads to the Americans’ fascination with bigger and bigger houses which tend to label the big property owners successful. Therefore, instead of placing blame on Wall Street firms, he concludes the American people themselves are the culprits behind the economic crisis.

Part IV Language Points
• 1. Back in the 1880s, a big red-bearded man came to call one day on the French MInistr of Education. Note how the writer begins the essay. Instead of starting with Verne‟s birth or early days, he begins with an amusing anecdote about Verne when he was 52. This way, the writer succeeds in arousing the reader‟s interest immediately. By the 1880s Verne had already had his major books published and become a world-famous writer. Here are the years of publication of his major works: Voyage to the Centre of the World(1864) From the Earth to the Moon(1865) 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea(1869) Around the World in 80 Days(1873) Mysterious Island(18740 Call on sb: to visit sb formally
