新编英语教程(基础英语)第三版4unit6课文详解及练习答案

Unit SixText I1.Pre-Reading QuestionsThink about the following questions before you read the text.1. How do people usually think of pearl? As an ordinary piece of jewellery? A thing of great value?A useless ornament? Give reasons for your answer.2. What might happen if a very poor person came into possession of a very large pearl of great value? Think of two or three possibilities.For your reference(They are open questions. Let the students air their views freely and exercise their imagination.)2.The Main IdeaMuch of the language of the text is metaphorical, and that makes it difficult for you to understand the meaning of the passage quickly. But it is far from incomprehensible. Go over the text once, not too rapidly, and see how much you understand at first reading.Now answer the following questions:1.What point is made about the news in a town?2.What was the news in the town?3.Who were particularly interested in Kino’s pearl?For your referenceAnswers:1.It travels fast.2.That Kino had found the Pearl of the World.3.The priest, the shopkeepers, the doctor, the beggars, the agents of the buyer of pearls.3.Background Notes(1) colonial animalA colonial animal is an association of individual organisms that are incompletely separated. Life forms such as corals and moss animals are good examples of colonial animals. They are individual organisms that normally exist in mass of large collections.4.TextThe PearlKino, a poor fisherman, has just found a very large and valuable pearl and is going to the nearest town to sell it. He needs money urgently to get medical help for his baby who has just been stung by a scorpion. Before Kino found the pearl, the only doctor available had refused to treat the baby because Kino could not afford to pay for the treatment.A town is a thing like a colonial animal. A town has a nervous system and a head and shoulders and feet. (1)A town is a thing separate from all other towns, so that there are no two towns alike. (2)And a town has a whole emotion. How news travels through a town is a mystery not easily to be solved. News seems to move faster than small boys can (1)scramble and (2)dart to tell it, (3)faster than women can call it over the fences.(4)Before Kino and Juana and the other fishers had come to Kino’s brush house, the nerves of the town were pulsing and (3)vibrating with the news — Kino had found the Pearl of the World. Before panting little boys could strangle out the words, their mothers knew it. (5)The news swept on past the brush houses, and it washed in a foaming wave into the town of stone and plaster. It came to the priest walking in his garden, and it put a thoughtful look in his eyes and a memory of certain repairs necessary to the church. He wondered what the pearl would be worth. And he wondered whether he had baptized Kino’s baby, or married him (6)for that matter. The news came to the shopkeepers and they looked at men’s clothes that had not sold so well.The news came to the doctor where he sat with a woman whose illness was age, thoughneither she nor the doctor would admit it. And when it was made plain who Kino was, the doctor grew (4)stern and (5)judicious at the same time. “He is (7)a client of mine,” the doctor said. “I am treating his child for a scorpion sting.” And the doctor’s eyes rolled up a little in their fat hammocks and he thought of Paris. He remembered the room he had lived in there as a great and (6)luxurious place. The doctor looked past his (7)aged patient and saw himself sitting in a restaurant in Paris and a waiter was just opening a bottle of wine.The news came early to the beggars in front of the church, and it made them giggle a little with pleasure, for they knew that (8)there is no (8)alms-giver in the world like a poor man who is suddenly lucky.Kino has found the Pearl of the World. In the town, in little offices, sat the men who bought pearls from the fishers. They waited in their chairs until the pearls came in, and then they (9)cackled and fought and shouted and threatened until they reached the lowest price the fisherman would stand. But there was a price below which they dared not go, for it had happened that a fisherman in despair had given his pearls to the church. And when the buying was over, these buyers sat alone and their fingers played (10)restlessly with the pearls, and they wished they owned the pearls. For there were not many buyers really — there was only one, and he kept these agents in separate offices to give a (9)(11)semblance of competition. The news came to these men, and their eyes (12)squinted and (10)their finger-tips burned a little, and each one thought how the (13)patron could not live forever and someone had to take his place. And each one thought how with some capital he could get a new start.All manner of people grew interested in Kino — people with things to sell and people with favors to ask. Kino had found the Pearl of the World. (11)The essence of pearl mixed with essence of men and a curious dark (14)residue was (15)precipitated. Every man suddenly became related to Kino’s pearl, and Kino’s pearl went into the dreams, the speculations, the schemes, the plans, the futures, the wishes, the needs, the lusts, the hungers, of everyone, and only one person stood in the way and that was Kino, so that he became curiously every man’s enemy. The news stirred up something infinitely black and evil in the town; (12)the black (16)distillate was like the scorpion, or like hunger in the smell of food, or like loneliness when love is (17)withheld. The poison sacs of the town began to manufacture (18)venom, and (13)the town (19)swelled and (20)puffed with the pressure of it.By John Steinbeck (an excerpt)Words and phrases: (点击文中红色单词或词组，出现该红色部分及e.g.字样，再单击e.g. ，出现例句)1.scramble:v. move somewhere in a hurried awkward waye.g. The man scrambled to his feet(=stood up very quickly and awkwardly)and hurried intothe kitchen.Your students may scramble up the bank of the river to follow you.2.dart: v. move suddenly and quickly in a particular directione.g. His teacher darted forward and pulled him away from the fire.The guard pulls the fire alarm, and the elevator stops, giving the passengers time todart down the stairwell.3.vibrate: v. shake quickly and continuously with very small movementse.g. The floor was vibrating to the beat of the music.The sea began to vibrate with waves that spread out in a circle.4.stern: a. serious and strict, and showing strong disapproval of someone's behaviore.g. Father looked stern at us for a while, and then we went to watch him hunt.Now it takes a stern soul to resist the temptation to check the headlines at least oncewhile you're away.5.judicious: a. done in a sensible and careful waye.g. In an environment of multiple campaigns promoting judicious antibiotic use in children,identification of effective strategies is important.Meditators should learn how to be judicious without being judgmental.6.luxurious: a. very expensive, beautiful, and comfortablee.g. She tried hard to retrieve her luxurious life.The luxurious liner is cleaving through the waves.7.aged: a. advanced in yearse.g. I well remember taking my aged grandfather across a road.He is aged, but his memory is still good.8.alms-giver: n. people who give money, food etc. to poor peoplee.g. But William is an entrepreneur, not just an alms-giver.There can be no friendship between a beggar and an alms-giver.9.cackle: v. laugh in a loud unpleasant way, making short high soundse.g. The women cackled when they saw the movie star step out of the limousine.The teacher let us cut the cackle in the class.10.restlessly: adv. act unwillingly to keep still or stay where a person is, especially because heor she is bored, impatient, or dissatisfied, and wants to do something elsee.g. I bought a rose and restlessly searched for her in the restaurant.As for poor Leo, after turning restlessly for hours, at last he had dropped off into asleep or stupor.11.semblance: n. a situation, condition etc. that is close to or similar to a particular one, usuallya good onee.g. After the war, life returned to a semblance of normality.Pursuing name brands can only create the semblance of wealth, not win actual respect.12.squint: v. look at something with eyes partly closed in order to see bettere.g. He also seems to be slightly blinded by the sun, causing him to squint.Increase the text size if you can.

A town is a thing separate from all other townsA town is detached from / apart from all other towns; in other words, each town is a separateentity, not joined to or connected with any other town.2.And a town has a whole emotion.This is an example of metaphor. A town is compared to a living being with feelings of all kinds — love, joy, hate, fear, grief, etc.3.faster than women can call it over the fencesfaster than women can talk about it to their neighbours over the fences that separate theirhomes4.Before ... the nerves of the town were pulsing and vibrating with the news — Kino hadfound the Pearl of the World.Before ... the town was alive with the news that Kino had found the Pearl of the World. Here the author wants to show us how fast news travelled. Kino found the Pearl of the World when he was out fishing, but before he reached home, the news had already spread through thewhole town and was on everyone’s lips.5.The news swept on past the brush houses and it washed in a foaming wave into the townof stone and plaster.The brush houses, referring to the houses in the area where the poor fishermen live, which is presumably just outside the town, form a strong contrast with the town of stone and plaster, where the priest, shopkeepers, doctor, and pearl buyers live. Note also how the author uses the figurative language to make the scene more vivid, comparing the news to a body ofwater that swept on and washed in a foaming wave.6.for that matterThis phrase gives emphasis to what he had said. In other words, if he had baptized Kino’s baby or had married him, Kino would be grateful to him and would show him his gratitude.7. a client of mineA client is a person who gets help or advice from any kind of professional. Usually, however,a lawyer has a “client”, whereas a doctor has a “patient” and a shopkeeper has a “customer”.8.there’s no alms-giver in the world like a poor man who is suddenly luckyA poor man who becomes suddenly rich is more generous than any alms-giver.alms — money, clothes or food given to the poor (usually money)Alms has only one form for both singular and plural.Other examples of nouns with plural forms:earnings, savings, surroundings, belongings, goods, remains, headquarters, thanks9. a semblance of competitionan outward appearance of competition that aimed to fool the fishermen10.their finger-tips burned a littleeach of them felt a little uneasy, hoping to start a pearl buying business of his own11.The essence of pearl mixed with essence of men and a curious dark residue wasprecipitated.The great value of the pearl and man’s insatiable desire to possess wealth combine to form a strange sort of wickedness / a strange wicked greed quickly.12.the black distillatea metaphor for the deep, evil feelings and desires of people who were affected by the news13.the town swelled and puffedthe town became vain and conceited / was filled with self-interest and vanityments on the TextThis excerpt is a good example of creativity in writing. It describes the psychology of various kinds of people just before Kino, a poor fisherman, goes to the town to sell the Pearl of the World, which he has found in the sea. The writer, through his excellent use of language, sets the scene for Kino’s arrival in the town and the reader is likely to anticipate with interest the meeting between him and the pearl buyers.What makes it possible for the writer to produce such vivid and immediate description, which leaves the reader with a profound impression of the town, its people and the forces at work in it?1. His close contact with and awareness of different types of people.2. His thorough and profound understanding of “human nature”.3. His keen power of observation and active imagination.4. His effective use of language.6.ExercisesA. Answer the following questions.(先单击出现黑色问题, 后单击出现蓝色答案)1. At what point in the story is the scene of this extract set?It is set before the arrival in town of the central figure, Kino. Kino is going to sell his newly found Pearl of the World.2. What personal details do we know about Kino?Kino is a poor fisherman who lives in a brush house. He has a child. He is in great need of money because his child has been stung by a scorpion and needs treatment. He is eager to sell the pearltoget money to pay for medical treatment of the sting.3. Why does the writer tell us that the shopkeepers looked at men’s clothes that had not sold so well?The shopkeepers are concerned about their business which has not been brisk, so there are a lot of men’s clothes in stock. When they learn that Kino has found a valuable pearl, they think of Kino as a possible buyer of the men’s clothes. Steinbeck tells us about the shopkeepers as an illustration of the effect of Kino’s find on other people.4. What details are given to describe the doctor’s appearance and his thoughts?Why does the writer want to supply us with such information?The doctor “grew stern and judicious at the same time” and his “eyes rolled up a little in their fat hammocks”, which suggests that he is immediately aware of what treating Kino’s child might mean for him. He thinks of Paris, recalling his room there as “a great and luxurious place” and imagines himself eating and drinking in a Parisian restaurant. The writer gives the reader this description to remind us that doctors whose work is curing people can be as money-oriented and pleasure-seeking as anyone else. This acts as a statement about “human nature”.5. How does the writer prepare the stage fo r a “battle” between the pearl buyers and Kino? How does the writer make the reader anticipate the meeting?The writer prepares the stage for the battle by telling us that the pearl buyers were experienced in bargaining with and “beating down” the pearl se llers. As Kino is presumably eager to get as much money as possible because of his child, the reader is likely to be looking forward with interest to the meeting of the two parties.6. Who do “the people with things to sell” and “the people with favours to ask” include?“The people with things to sell” include:1) the priest (who sells spiritual comfort)2) the shopkeepers (who sell men’s clothes)3) the doctor (who sells his medical skill)“The people with favours to ask” include:1) the beggars in front of the church2) the other poor fishers7. What does the writer mean by “The essence of pearl mixed with essence of men and a curious dark residue was precipitated”?The sentence can be interpreted as: The combination of the inestimable value of pearl and the fundamental human vice — greed — resulted in evil intentions and malicious plots. The writer wants to show that when people are obsessed with the idea of money, they are very likely to do evil things.B. Explain the following in your own words.(先单击出现黑色问题, 后单击出现蓝色答案)1. Before panting little boys could strangle out the words, their mothers knew it.The mothers had already learned the news before their sons could stammer it out.2. The news swept on past the brush houses, and it washed in a foaming wave into the town of stone and plaster.The news spread from one brush house to another and continued to travel fast into the town.3. And when it was made plain who Kino was, the doctor grew stern and judicious at the same time.When the doctor realized that Kino was the man who had asked for his help, he became both serious(about the treatment) and wise / clever (about how he could gain).4. And the doctor’s eyes rolled up a little in their fat hammocks and he thought of Paris.For a moment the doctor’s eyes were focused on nothing as his thoughts turned to Paris.5. The news stirred up something infinitely black and evil in the town; the black distillate was like the scorpion, or like hunger in the smell of food, or like loneliness when love is withheld.The news caused a profound “negative force” to be at work in the town. This could be compared to a scorpion, which causes pain, or the hunger created by the smell of food, or feeling of loneliness which comes when love is refused.6. The poison sacs of the town began to manufacture venom, and the town swelled and puffed with the pressure of it.What acted as the “venom-producing bag” of the town, i.e., the increasing self-interest in the townspeople, began to create poison which afflicted the whole town with a negative force.。

[教材]新编大学英语3视听说教程听力原文U4 Listen 1For many of you this will be your last year at university and now is the time for you to begin thinking seriously about your future careers. In order to give you as much help as possible, I have quoted a list of questions that you ought to ask yourself.First, "Have I got a clear knowledge of my abilities as well as my interests?" Be honest about your weaknesses as well as your strengths. Take a really good look at yourself and give real thought to the kind of person you are, and what kind of person you want to be.Second, "Do I know the kinds of occupations in which people like myself tend to find success and satisfaction?" Talk to people who have similar abilities and interests and who are already in the careers that interest you. You can gain some idea of what they consider to be important and challenging in those careers. Watch these people at work.Third, "Have I weighed carefully the immediate advantages againstthe long-term prospects offered by the jobs I am considering?" Will the occupation you select give you satisfaction in the years to come? Realize now the importance of education in all fields, technical and professional. Remember that chances of promotion are usually given to educated persons—other things being equal.Fourth, "Have I talked with my parents, my teachers and my headmaster?" Remember they have a lot of experience that you can benefitfrom. They can help you think about the jobs. They can stimulate you to give careful thought to what you really want to do, and offer useful suggestions about how you might take full advantage of your personal qualities and qualifications.Last, "How do I regard my job? Is it just a means of getting money to do the things that I want to do? Is the work important to my future happiness? Is it a combination of both?"The above questions and their answers should give you some better ideas about how you should start planning your career. Your life-long job cannot be approached in any kind of haphazard fashion. It must be considered carefully, examined from every angle, and talked over with those who know you and those who can help you in any way.Listen 2I: Some people feel that their jobs are misunderstood by others. Is that very common?S: Oh, absolutely. Most jobs or professions have an image or stereotype attached to them, and some of these are not realistic. The serious point is that young people choose their careers based on these false images, and they may even avoid certain careers which have a negative image. This can cause problems for the economy.I: Is there evidence of this problem?S: Yes, there was a recent survey of children's attitudes to different professions.I: How was this done? Children don't know much about jobs and professions.S: True. What the investigators wanted to get was children's impressions and prejudices. They gave the children twelve pairs of statements, one of the pair positive, and the other negative. Children were asked to say which of the statements was "most true" for each profession.I: For example?S: Well, for example, "Such and such a person is likely to be boring or interesting company."I: I see. What professions did they ask about?S: The list is long, but it included lawyers, economists, accountants, sales representatives, scientists and engineers.I: And the results?S: Well, they are striking, especially for engineers who came out much worse than one might expect. About 90 percent of the children thought that engineering was a "dirty job", of "low status", and the engineer was more likely to take orders than to give them. The only other person they thought more likely to lose his job was the sales representative. But, there were good points too. Engineering was seen to be "interesting, well-paid work".I: Hmm, not a rosy picture.S: No, but it got better when children were asked what they thought of the engineer as a person. Most of them chose positive comments, but most thought the engineer was likely to be badly dressed.I: What about other professions? What were the most popular?S: Oh, the lawyers by far. Next came accountants and scientists as well as economists. The engineers and sales representatives were the least popular.I: Sounds like a sign of the times.S: Yes, but I think the most serious implication was the children's apparent ignorance of the importance of the engineer's role in society.Practice 1W: Look. Here's a job that might interest you.M: What is it? Are you sure? The last job interview you sent me off to was a disaster.W: Well, look. It says they want a sales manager, and it looks like it's a big international company. That'dbe good. You might get to travel.M: What kind of company is it, though?W: Um, let's see. Yes, it's a textile company that seems to import from abroad. They say the salary is reallygood. They operate a system of paying you a basic salary and then offering you a sales commission ontop of that. They say it is high. And oh, look! They give you a car to travel round in. That's not bad, isit?M: Um, do they say anything about experience?W: Um, let's see. No, they want someone young with ambition and enthusiasm. Oh yes, they wantgraduates, so that's OK. You've been to university. Now what else? Let's see.M: There must be some catch.W: No, the only thing is you have to travel, but then that's what the company car's for. Oh, and you have to beable to get on well with other people because it says you have to be good on a team.M: Um, perhaps I'll have a closer look at that one.Practice 2W: Now what do you want to see me about, Janet?J: Well, I have a few questions I'd like to ask you, Mr. Womack. Can you give me some information about secretarial jobs?W: Yes, of course. First, let me get your file out. Now you're 16, aren't you?J: That's right.W: Well, what would you like to know?J: About the opportunities in general and the basic training, and things like typing speed and shorthand speed.W: Before we go any further, Janet, when you said secretarial work, did you only mean typing or moregeneral things?J: Well, I suppose I'd have to start as a word processor operator, wouldn't I?W: If you left school at sixteen, yes. But if you wanted to have a better chance of getting a more interestingsecretarial job more quickly, it would be better if you stayed on and took A levels. According to yourfile, your English is good, and you've done French and economics, haven't you?J: Yes, they're my best subjects. If I stayed, what A levels would I need to be a secretary?W: That depends, but those three subjects are all very suitable.J: And then I suppose I'd have to do a secretarial course, wouldn't I? Um, what sort of speed do they expect?W: I've got the typing speed here, I think. Oh, yes, it should be 65 words per minute.J: And would I have to learn shorthand?W: Yes, you would. You'd need a speed of 90 to 100 words a minute.J: Oh, it sounds a lot, doesn't it? Would I have a chance to use my French?W: Oh, yes, if you were a secretary with languages.J: What sort of work would I have to do?W: Well, you'd have to translate letters, of course, but you'd also have to answer the phone to foreigncallers and interpret if foreign visitors came to the firm. It would be useful if you learned a secondforeign language. That would help a lot.J: I think I'd like a job like that. But I'd better go away andthink about it. You see, well, after all, two more years at school is a long time, isn't it?W: I'm sure it seems so at your age. If you need any more help, please come back and we'll talk about itagain.J: Thanks, Mr. Womack.Practice 3D: Hi! You're listening to Radio Southwest, the best in the southwest for music and up-to-the-minute news.Sue's here. Hello, Sue.S: Hello, David.D: And we've got the Jobspot for you today. So, if you're lookingfor a new job, this could be the spot foryou. So, let's have a look, and see what we've got today.S: Well, the first one we've got is a cook. That's in a large, busy restaurant, so it's very useful to have hadexperience in cooking. Must be a high school graduate and the pay is $12 an hour. So that's not bad, isit? The hours are good too. That's Monday to Friday, 3:00 p.m. till 6:00 p.m.D: Great. Thanks, Sue. So that's a cook. Now, how do you fancyworking out of doors? How do you fancybeing a gardener? So as long as you're fit and strong, and at least16 years old, that'll suit you. The payis $8 an hour. And the hours, Tuesday to Saturday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., you have to work on Sundayonce a month, but on Monday the Garden Center's closed. Now, thesort of work you'd be doing ispotting, watering, things like that. So, how about applying for that? Pay, $8 an hour. Sue, what elsehave you got?S: Right, Dave. Well, from outdoors to indoors. We've got a word processor operator job here. This job might suit a woman with school-age children, because the hours are only 15 hours a week. It's a small, friendly office, and they require a high school graduate with two years' experience operating a computer. Pay is $9 per hour. So, there you go. That's a nice job in an office. If you fancy any of those jobs, give us a ring here on Jobspot at Radio Southwest. And now back to the music.Practice 4A: Do you think anybody can be trained to be a teacher?B: Well, I think there are probably some people that can be teachers but I think it's a gift that you have.And not many people have that internal kind of thing.A: Can you define any of that?B: Oh...A: What sort of specific uh...are there certain personality...B: Well, I think that the best teachers are people that are fairly sensitive, and, er, extroverted, okay? A: Uh-huh...B: The best teachers I know are kind of extroverted people, and they really like kids... A: Uh-huh.B: But, by the same token, I know some teachers who really careabout doing a good job and want thosekids to like them and want to do well.A: Right...B: But for some teachers, they just don't have it. And it's...it'ssad when you see that happening, becausethere're some teachers who don't care, you know—they're just in it now because they've been in it solong and it's too late to move out...and...A: Well, aren't there some very definable management skills involved in teaching that often are neglectedin teacher training, maybe? I mean...B: I don't know how you train somebody to do that. To be a good teacher, I think you have to have a hightolerance level for confusion—I think you have...A: Um...B: To have that when you've got thirty kids... You have to have that. You have to be a very patient person,and I know it just sounds totally inadequate, but I don't know howto put my...my finger on it. It just...A: But you do believe it is uh...there is a gift of some sort, or there is something...B: Yeah, I do.Text 1There are at least 100 million workers in the Unites States. Most of them are on the job 35 to 40 hours a week. Their typical day includes seven to eight hours of work. Usually, they have a 15-minute coffeebreak in the morning and in the afternoon. But work schedules vary from job to job.White-collar workers—office workers and many professionals—usually have "nine to five" jobs. Theybegin at 9:00 a.m. and finish at 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.Blue-collar workers—mechanics,electricians, and laborers—often work from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.In many factories, blue-collar workers come to work in eight-hour shifts. Typically, these shifts start at 8:00 a.m., 4:00 p.m., and midnight. Finally, sales people and managers in retail stores work on Monday and Thursday nights, when the stores are open. Many retail workers also work on Saturdays, and some work on Sundays.These are the normal schedules for most American workers. However, many businesses now use a new system called "flex-time scheduling". Under this system, the employees choose their own working hours. Somepeople work from 8:00 to 4:00 five days a week. Some work from 9:00 to 5:00. Other people work 10 or 12 hours a day four days a week. Employees and managers are both happy with the system. The employees like the freedom of choice, so they work hard. The managers, of course, like the hard-working employees.What, then, is a typical work schedule? It depends on the job—andon the workers.Text 2M: How long have you worked for AM-ADMEL, Gill?W: Only for a year. It's May now, isn't it? Yes, I joined last August in fact.M: August in 1996.W: Yes.M: What did you do before that?W: I used to work for a travel agency in London.M: It was interesting, wasn't it?W: Not really. It was just secretarial work, rather like this job. And it wasn't too well-paid. But I took asecretarial course when I left school and I couldn't think what else to do.M: So you went straight from school into a secretarial course,didn't you?W: Well, not quite. I left school when I was 16, in 1989, I think it was. And then I went to work in a hotelin Austria for a year, to learn some German.M: Austria? Why Austria?W : I don't know really. Well, we used to go there on holiday quite often when we were younger, and, well, I like Austria actually. Anyway then I went back and did the secretarial course. That was a year's course.M: And then you got the job at the travel agency I suppose.W: Yeah, that's right. That was in 1991.M: So you were there for five years!W: Yes, it's awful, isn't it? Actually, I'm thinking of giving itall up to become a nurse.M: Really?W: Well, I worked in a hospital in Twickenham during my last year at school. Just cleaning and helping tomake beds and so on. It was part of our Practical Careers training.M: And you liked it?W: Yes, it was interesting.Text 3M: Well, now then, one thing I'd like to ask is, er, exactly why you applied for the job. I mean, just lookingat your application form, you're actually over-qualified...W: Yes, I thought you might ask that. Um, the thing is, in my present job, although I'm actually in chargeof a small team and I have a lot of responsibility, it's largely a desk job with a lot of paperwork...M: And you're not too keen on being stuck in an office all day?W: To be honest, no, I'm not. I much prefer being out on site where I can supervise things, and deal withproblems as they occur. And this job should give me the kind of contact with other engineers, architects,builders and so on.M: Mmm. You'd certainly have to do quite a lot of traveling in the local area, you know, visiting differentsites. You do realize, though, that the starting salary isn't as good as the salary in your present job? W: Yes, I realize that, but um, it does say in the job advertisement that the promotion prospects are very good.M: That's true, and er, as this is a new project that we're working on, we think there'll be a very goodchance of fairly quick promotion, depending on performance, that is...W: Yes, of course. Well, you see, I've got very little chance of promotion in my present job. I mean it's a very small company andthere's nowhere really for me to go; that's why I'm looking around for somewhere else.。

But I can live independently and acquire more life skills,and perhaps I can get greater academic improvements.Weighing the pros and cons,I made a decision to go to a distant city for higher education.When making decisions in my daily life,I usually apply the cost-benefit analysis.For instance,when deciding whether to shop online or in a real shop,I would take into account the time and transportation costs of going to a real shop.Therefore,online shopping which saves time and does not require a commute is more appealing to me.Another example I’d like to share with you is applying a cost-benefit analysis on whether I should stand up and volunteer to answer the question or keep quiet in my seat.Answering the question benefits me by exercising my spoken English.The cost is that I need to think of a reasonable answer and if I make a wrong answer I may feel embarrassed in front of my classmates.Weighing the cost and benefit,I think that it is worth making a try.Step2Sharing your ideasIn daily life,another effective economic principle that can be used is opportunity cost.Opportunity cost is the forgone benefit that would have been derived from an option not chosen.To properly evaluate opportunity costs,the costs and benefits of each option should be considered and weighed against the others.So considering the value of opportunity costs can guide individuals to make profitable decisions.Take the decision of whether to go to university or get a job after high school as an example.For the average person,the opportunity cost of going to university is32,000yuan for four years.If you find a job and earn probably3,000yuan a month,you can earn144,000yuan for fouryears.It seems like that based on the above scenario,taking a job has a financial advantage over going to university.Does that mean we shouldn’t go to university?The answer is No.Not everyone has the ability to obtain a considerable-paying job out of high school.But,people who graduate from universities typically have long-term career salaries than those without a bachelor’s degree.In the long run,the four years spent pursuing a degree in universities benefit one’s career life more and would result in a higher financial benefit.Reading1Language focus1.optimal2.bulk3.demographic4.stagnant5.prodded6.transaction7.transmit8.enormousGlobal understanding1)starker2)mores3)saving habits4)economic context5)economic transactions6)Trust levels7)financial contracts8)willingnessDetailed understanding1.T2.F3.F4.F5.T6.T7.F8.TCultural thinkingA penny saved is a penny earned.People’s attitudes towards saving or spending differ.Why do some people save more than others,even if they have similar incomes?The traditional answer has been that there are idiosyncratic differences between individuals—some of us are frugal, and some are not—while countries differ on things like demographics, credit availability,income expectations,and uncertainty.All the explanations are true.But it might not be the whole truth.It’s also possible that our savings behavior is shaped by the cultural impact of which we were brought up with.Most Asian countries,such as China,Singapore,and South Korea have traditionally had high savings rates.All these countries are influenced by the virtue of frugality.Another example is that Americans who were descended from slaves save significantly less than other Americans,even if they have the same incomes.This shows the legacy of slavery is still with us:slaves could not own property and so never had a savings culture. This absence of saving has been transmitted down the generations.Reading2Language focus1.incentive2.restrictions3.inhibit4.convincingly5.susceptible6.incomparably7.abuse8.perceptionGlobal understanding1)biased2)life experience3)acculturation4)implementation5)inequality6)interventions7)alternative narrativesDetailed understanding1.F2.F3.T4.F5.T6.TCultural thinkingVersion1:Yes,I agree with the author.Changes in people’s mindset can affect the economy.For example,in China,there is a traditional economic concept of“living within one’s means”,so traditionally people would spend money according to their savings.But with the development of society,modern young people have started to accept the idea of “spending in advance”and are consuming with credit cards.This is a huge change in mindset and has had a correspondingly impact on the development of China’s financial markets.Version2:No,I don’t agree with the author.Economic development and changes in mindset are not tightly linked.With the modernization of society,the economy in China is constantly and steadily developing and progressing.However,people living in distant rural areas can't keep up with the pace of social development.In this regard,the poverty alleviation measures of the central and local governments can help them transform their production and lifestyle,thus changing the local economic situation and achieving the result of poverty alleviation and common prosperity.Integrated thinkingAnswer1:I think my economic behavior is quite similar to my classmates. We are all financially dependent on our parents.In order to live within our means,we all like shopping online.Through shopping online,we can search for bargains and save both money and time.And we rely very much on user reviews and recommendations when shopping.Some social apps enable influencers to advertise the products.We,as young Chineseconsumers,also like spending money on dining in fancy restaurants, having entertainment,and doing sports,which I think is Gen Z’s consuming fashion.Answer2:Chinese parents always say“Don’t spend all of your money. Save it for a rainy day.”When making financial decisions,the Chinese prefer to“save”rather than“spend”.However,the economic behavior of young Chinese has changed and is not that different from young people in other countries.Answer3:Traditional Chinese culture plays a profoundly important role in young people.Most Chinese young people are still very rational in their spending and do not spend money blindly on luxuries that they cannot afford.They are more likely to spend wisely when making purchase decisions.Culture mosaic1How different cultures deal with cashVersion1:Yes,I have a habit of saving.Saving money is important because it gives me more financial security,stability,and freedom. Having savings also protects me during financial emergencies to avoid debt and reduces stress.Additionally,saving money also enables me to help others and support my family to some extent.Every month,I will budget my living expenses given by my parents rationally and wisely.Apart from essential living expenses,such as eating and accommodation,clothing,and daily necessities,I will save up the rest money.Every year at the Chinese New Year,I receive red packets from my elders.I will put the money in the bank,mostly with low-risk capital preservation projects to avoid financial risks.The saving habit allows me to rely on myself when I need to spend a large amount of money,such as on graduation travel.Version2:No,I don’t have a habit of saving.The top reason is that I believe in the philosophy of“living for today”.I don’t know what tomorrow will offer.Therefore,I want to live each day to the fullest.I like to try new things and enjoy new experiences.I spend my money on hobbies,such as camping and rock climbing,which are very exciting but also costly.The other reason is that I have no financial income.My parents provide me with monthly living expenses,so I have to live within my means and don't have much money to save.Although I may find a part-time job to earn money after school,I choose not to do so since I am spending my time mainly on the study.After all,studying is moreimportant to me now.I plan to save and invest wisely after I graduate from university and find a job.Then I can be financially independent, wisely budget my income,and achieve financial sustainable development.2From anathema to acceptability:the story of life insuranceI think life insurance is very important for me and my family.As there are always unexpected accidents,fatal injuries,and diseases in our lives.Death,disability,illness,and other hazards in our lives are all called personal hazards.Therefore,life insurance,as a method to deal with personal hazards,is important.It helps to provide financial help to the insured person.It is traditionally taboo to mention illness or death in Chinese culture.But in modern social life,these risks inevitably exist.Over the years,my attitude towards life insurance has changed.Now,I am willing to buy life insurance for myself and my family.In this way,I can at least protect my property in case of accident or danger.3Money factsI’d like to share with you a new form of currency,call e-CNY.The e-CNY,or digital yuan,is a centralized,cash-like digital currency that is expected to be primarily used for retail payments in China.The e-CNY has been applied in over a million cases,covering utility payments, catering,transportation,shopping,and government services.It can be understood as the third largest electronic payment tool after WeChat Pay and Alipay.The most important purpose of the central bank’s introduction of e-CNY is to protect the sovereignty of the currency,as well as to enhance the RMB's position in the international market.It is aimed at creating a financial infrastructure that serves billions of people around the world, such as solving the challenge of sending money internationally to people all over the world in a convenient and efficient way.。

Unit4 [见教材P61]Writing Between the Lines阅读时要做读书笔记Mortimer J. Adler（U.S.）莫迪摩尔.J.阿德勒（美国）①You know you have to read “between the lines” to get the most out of anything.②I want to persuade you to do something equally important in the course of your reading.③I want to persuade you to “write between the lines.”④Unless you do, you are not likely to do the most efficient kind of reading.①你很清楚，为了能够最充分地理解，你必须要能听读懂言外之意。

②现在，我想建议你在阅读时也要做同等重要的事，那就是建议你在阅读时做读书笔记，否则你的阅读不大可能是最有效的。

①I contend, quite bluntly, that marking up a book is not an act of mutilation but of love.①坦白说，我认为，人们阅读时在书上做笔记不是毁书，而是爱书。

① There are two ways in which you can own a book. ② The first is the property right[you establish by paying for it], just as you pay for clothes and furniture.③But this act of purchase is only the prelude to possession.④Full ownership comes only when you have made it a part of yourself, and the best way to make yourself a part of it is by writing in it. ⑤An illustration may make the point clear.⑥You buy a beefsteak and transfer it from the butcher,s icebox to your own. ⑦But you do not own the beefsteak in the most important senseuntil you consume it and get it into your bloodstream.⑧I am arguing that books, too, must be absorbed in your bloodstream to do you any good.①人们可以通过两种方式来拥有一本书。
