全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5UNIT 5 Overcoming Obstacles全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5Part I Pre-Reading TaskListen to the recording two or three times and then think over the following questions:1. What happened to the singer? 2. What helped her pull through all the hardships she suffered? 3. What is the tone of the song? 4. Is the song related to the theme of the unit ― overcoming obstacles?全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5Part II Text ALook at the following two sayings and then see if the story of Michael Stone bears out the points they make.The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it. ―― Mo liere When it is dark enough, you can see the stars. ―― Charles A, BeardTRUE HEIGHT David Naster全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5His palms were sweating. He needed a towel to dry his grip. The sun was as hot as the competition he faced today at the National Junior Olympics. The pole was set at 17 feet. That was three inches higher than his personal best. Michael Stone confronted the most challenging day of his polevaulting career. The stands were still filled with about 20,000 people, even though the final race had ended an hour earlier. The pole vault is truly the highlight of any track and field competition. It combines the grace of a gymnast with the strength of a body builder. It also has the element of flying, and the thought of flying as全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5high as a two-story building is a mere fantasy to anyone watching such an event. As long as Michael could remember he had always dreamed of flying. Michael's mother read him numerous stories about flying when he was growing up. Her stories were always ones that described the land from a bird'seye view.Her excitement and passion for details made Michael's dreams full of color and beauty. Michael had this one recurring dream. He would be running down acountry road. As he raced between golden wheat fields, he would always outrun the locomotives passing by. It was at the exact moment he took a deep breath that he began to lift off the ground. He would begin soaring like an eagle. Where he flew would always coincide with his mother's stories. Wherever heflew was with a keen eye for detail and the free spirit of his mother's love. His dad, on the other hand, was not a dreamer. Bert Stone was a hardcore realist. He believed in hard work全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5and sweat. His motto: If you want something, work for it! From the age of 14, Michael did just that. He began a very careful training program. He worked out every other day with weightlifting, with some kind of running work on alternate days. The program was carefully monitored by Michael's coach,trainer and father. Michael's dedication, determination and discipline was a coach's dream. Besides being an honor student and only child, Michael Stone continued to help his parents with their farm chores. Mildred Stone, Michael's mother, wished he could relax a bit more and be that "free dreaming" little boy. On one occasion she attempted to talk to him and his father about this,but his dad quickly interrupted, smiled and said, "You want something, workfor it!" All of Michael's vaults today seemed to be全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5the reward for his hard work. If Michael Stone was surprised, excited or vain about clearing the bar at 17 feet, you couldn't tell. As soon as helanded on the inflated landing mat, and with the crowd on its feet, Michael immediately began preparing for his next attempt at flight. He seemed unawareof the fact that he had just beaten his personal best by three inches and that he was one of the final two competitors in the pole-vaulting event at theNational Junior Olympics. When Michael cleared the bar at 17 feet 2 inches and 17 feet 4 inches, again he showed no emotion. As he lay on his back and heard the crowd groan, he knew the全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5other vaulter had missed his final jump. He knew it was time for his final jump. Since the other vaulter had fewer misses, Michael needed to clear this vault to win. A miss would get him second place. Nothing to be ashamed of, but Michael would not allow himself the thought of not winning first place. He rolled over and did his routine of three finger-tipped push-ups. He found his pole, stood and stepped on the runway that led to the most challenging eventof his 17-year-old life. The runway felt different this time. It startled him for a brief moment. Then it all hit him like a wet bale of hay. The bar wasset at nine inches higher than his personal best. That's only one inch off the National record, he thought. The intensity of the moment filled his mind with anxiety. He began shaking the tension. It wasn't working. He became more tense.全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5Why was this happening to him now, he thought. He began to get nervous. Afraid would be a more accurate description. What was he going to do? He had never experienced these feelings. Then out of nowhere, and from the deepest depths of his soul, he pictured his mother. Why now? What was his mother doing in his thoughts at a time like this? It was simple. His mother always used to tell him when you felt tense, anxious or even scared, take deep breaths. So he did. Along with shaking the tension from his legs, he gently laid his pole at his feet. He began to stretch out his arms and upper body. The light breezethat was once his pole. He felt his heart pounding. He was sure the crowd did, too. The silence was deafening. When he heard the there was now gone. He carefully picked up singing of some distant birds in flight, he knew it washis time to fly. As he began sprinting down the runway, something felt wonderfully different, yet familiar. The surface below him felt like thecountry road he used to dream about. Visions of the golden wheat fields seemed to fill his thoughts. When he took a deep breath, it happened. He began to fly. His take-off was effortless. Michael Stone was now flying, just like in his childhood dreams. Only this time he knew he wasn't dreaming. This was real.Everything seemed to be moving in slow motion. The air around him was the purest and freshest he had ever sensed. Michael was soaring like an eagle.全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5It was either the eruption of the people in the stands or the thump of his landing that brought Michael back to earth. On his back with that wonderful hot sun on his face, he knew he could only see in his mind's eye the smile on his mother's face. He knew his dad was probably smiling too, even laughing. What he didn't know was that his dad was hugging his wife and crying. That's right: Bert "If You Want It, Work For It" Stone was crying like a baby in his wife's arms. He was crying harder than Mildred had ever seen before. She also knew he was crying the greatest tears of all: tears of pride. Michael was immediately surrounded by people hugging and congratulating him on the greatest accomplishment of his life. He later went on that day to clear 17 feet 6 1/2 inches: a National and International Junior Olympics record. With all the media attention and sponsorship possibilities, Michael's life would never be the same again. It wasn't just because he won the National Junior Olympics and set a new world record. And it wasn't because he had just increased his personal best by 9 l/2 inches. It was simply because Michael Stone is blind.全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5New Words and Expressionsbear outprove that (sth.) is true 证实sweatvi. 出汗 n. 汗水 towel n. 毛巾，手巾 pole-vault vi., n. 撑竿跳高vault n. 撑竿跳高 (=pole vault);撑物跳跃 grace n. quality of being smooth and elegant, esp. in movement or structure 优美，优雅；雅致全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5gymnast n. 体操家，体操运动员 body builder n. 健美运动员 mere a. nothing more than 仅仅，只不过 fantasy n. 幻想 numerous a. very many 许多的，无数的passion n. strong feeling, esp. of love 热情 detail n. small, particular fact or item 细节，琐碎的事全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5recur▲ vi. come or happen again 再来；再发生 outrun (outran, outrun) vt. run faster or better than; go beyond 跑得比…快；跑得比…好；超过 eagle n. 鹰coincide▲ vi. happen at t he same time; be in agreement 同时发生；一致coincide with 与…同时发生；与…一致 hard-core a. 顽固不化的 core n. the most important part 核心全新版大学英语第二册UNIT5realist n. a person who deals in a practical way with situations as they actually are 现实主义者 motto n. 格言，座右铭 work out go through a physical exercise session 体育锻炼，训练 weightlifting n. 举重(运动) alteinate▲ a. every other or second; happening by turns 交替的；轮流的 coach n.

What is function of the phrase “on the other hand”?(=The phrase is used for comparing different things or ideas.)2.

Paraphrase the first part of the sentence.(=He wou ld not be ashamed of getting himself the second place, but…)2.
