The reason being that, first, form products do not generally sell at a high price so we have to keep production costs down. Secondly, taxes are fairly high at present and we have less support from the government, so our incomes are decreasing. That’s why I think the price is my greatest concern. On the other hand, if we can improve quality by buying better seeds and improving our handing methods, we can sell at a premium. That could increase our income.Part Ⅵ1.(1) c (2) a (3) c (4) b (5) c2.Agents need to be paid for their work.

Script
Mr. Robbins: As an exhibitor, choosing the right trade fair is essential. If the trade fair is too specialist or too broad, it’s unlikely to attract visitors who want to buy what you sell, and participating in trade fairs can be a waste of time. So, you see, when you attend a trade fair, you should make sure you know what kind of customers you want to reach and what you want to achieve. John: Anything else I should know? Mr. Robbins: One more thing. You should make specific and measurable goals. If you choose your fair carefully and give yourself plenty of time to plan your goals, you’ll have a good chance of doing good business. John: Good. You really are a specialist. Thank you. Mr. Robbins: You’re welcome, John. By the way, there’s an IT trade show being held now. It might be a good idea for you to go and have a look. You’d get an idea of what’s going on. John: Thank you, I will. That’s a good idea.

Richard said that the high-speed assembly line was designed and made by their engineers and technicians. Then Thomas wondered how much the factory spent on new product development every year and how soon the order would be delivered. Richard told him that 8% to 10% of the gross sales was spent on new product development. He also said that delivery of new products depended on the size of the order and the items. Finally, Thomas asked Richard to give him some brochures on the products because he wanted his manager to know about them. Richard also said that Thomas’s manager would be welcome to visit the factory.

The reason being that, first, form products do not generally sell at a high price so we have to keep production costs down. Secondly, taxes are fairly high at present and we have less support from the government, so our incomes are decreasing. That’s why I think the price is my greatest concern. On the other hand, if we can improve quality by buying better seeds and improving our handing methods, we can sell at a premium. That could increase our income.Part Ⅵ1.(1) c (2) a (3) c (4) b (5) c2.Agents need to be paid for their work.

In addition, the demand for this item from our company is very high. We’re actually temporarily out of stock right now. Currently, demand is way ahead of supply in the market.A: We know about that. But don’t you think you should make some concessions to make your price competitive? Can we make it $35 if we place large orders?B: Well, that’s a tough deal.

Task 2
1. Nick Donald is the manager of a clothes manufacturing company. He is talking about their regulations on giving discounts and commission. Listen to the conversation and then decide if the following statements are true (T) or false (F).
00:05 / 03:00
1. Watch the video carefully. Pay attention to the way of negotiating of the two sides. Then choose the correct answer to each question.
Script
Mr. Wang: 1,000 pieces… Well, since it’s our initial transaction, I’ll give you a 10% discount on these two items. Mr. Welsh: 10%? Another company gives us a 15% discount for that size of order. You know, an incentive discount encourages the buyers and helps expand your business. Mr. Wang: Of course, I know, but that is too high a rate. Frankly speaking, the maximum discount we can grant is 10%. Mr. Welsh: Then how about the food box and cup container? Also 10%? We would like to order 800 food boxes and 500 cup containers to start. Mr. Wang: I’m afraid we can’t do that. You know, the price of the raw material has been rising steadily. There’s no profi t margin left at that price. Mr. Welsh: Come on, of course there is. By the way, we don’t need the scale on the cup container. How about reducing the price of the container to US$2 from your original US$3? Mr. Wang: Well, it’s really hard… Mr. Welsh: Well, we could meet each other half-way. That would conclude the deal. Mr. Wang: You certainly have a way of talking me into it. All right, let’s each make some concession. You increase the food box order to 1,000 pieces, OK? Mr. Welsh: Fine, no problem. Mr. Wang: You really drive a hard bargain! But we look forward to a long partnership.

Hw went to a bar and had several drinks. When he was done, he stood up and walked toward thedoor. The barman shouted after him, “Hey mister, are you going to pay for those drinks”Tom turned around and replied, “I have already paid you,” and then walked out of the bar. Almost immediately he saw one of his friends Richard and told him about the barman, “Just go in there and drink all you want, then get up and leave. When the barman asks you to pay the bill, just tell him you have already paid.”This sounded easy enough, so Richard went in and has several drinks. The barman went to him and said, “Before you came in, another man was here. When I asked him to pay his bill, he told me he’d paid, but I don’t remember him paying me.”Richard said, “I would love to stay and hear your story, but I don’t have time. Can I havemy change please”1. ATask 3: Why not just print moneyWhat’s the solution to a recession, a time of little economic activity Just print money! Sounds reasonable, doesn’t it Let’s see if this will work by using an example.Let’s pretend that all the students in your class make up the ENTER population of the country, and the teacher represents the government. Let’s also pretend each student has exactly $.Since we are in a recession, let’s have the teacher, who represents the government, print money. He prints $ more for everyone. Now everyone has $ more to spend. More money to spend sounds like a great way to get us out of recession, since more money to spend means demand for goods and services. Then if that works, why don’t we give MORE money away How about $100 Now we have lots of money to spend. So no more recession, rightNot really, because we have only looked at one side of the problem. As more and more people receive more and more money, what’ll happenSince everyone has more money, the students all go shopping to spend that extra money. This causes the demand for goods and services to rise, and people who sell goods and services raise price. For example, if you could buy a new music CD at $10 in the past, now the price could be $1,000! This is called inflation.So, the original reason for printing all this money was to help get us of recession, but we have only replaced one problem with another.IV. Speaking OutModel 1 I want to blow it all.John: Hey, Se-Jin, do you want to come shopping with me My dad just gave me my monthly allowance and I want to blow it all.Se-Jin:That sounds just like you, John! What do you want to buyJohn: I don’t know…Some music CDs, maybe.Se-Jin: If you spend all that money on things you don’t even know if you want, you won’t have any money left when you need it.John: But if I just save my money, that doesn’t s sound like much fun either.Besides, I need some new CDs.Se-Jin: You also need a financial advisor!Now Your TurnA: Hey, do you want to come shopping with me I just got some money from my part-time job, and I want to get rid of it right away.B: That’s your style. What do you want to buyA: I don’t know…some fashionable clothes, maybe.B: If you waste all your money on things you don’t even know if you want, you’ll be out of money completely when you need it.A: But if I just hold on to my money…that doesn’t make much sense either. I really need some new clothes. What’s the point of saving lots of moneywithout funB: As I see it, you need a person to look after your money.Model 2 Can money buy everythingPeter: I’m trying to think of ways to become rich. If I could get my hands on a lot of money, I’ll be really happy.Jane: Do you really think so I’m not so sure.Peter: Of course, why wouldn’t I I’d be able to have anything I want.Jane: Well, there are plenty of people who have a lot of money but aren’t happy.What do you say to thatPeter: But if I became a millionaire, I’d buy whatever I wanted.Jane: Can you buy true love Can you buy the moonPeter: Maybe not, but I can buy a house with a lot of modern conveniences. Jane: So many people think like you do, buy look at all the divorces, suicides and murders among wealthy people. How do you explain thatPeter: Maybe there’s something in what you said.Now Your TurnA: I really hope I can make a fortune. If I had a lot of money, I’d be as happy as a king.B: Do you really believe so I have my doubts about it.A: Of course, why wouldn’t I If I were a millionaire, there’s nothing I couldn’t buy. B: Well, can you but health Can you but true friendshipB: Maybe not. But I can but a big house and car, and make my life more comfortable.A: Maybe you have a point there. Money can bring material comforts. But don’t forget, there are also divorces and suicides among wealthy people.B: Well, there is some truth in what you said. Money cannot but real happiness. Model 3 I wonder if you could give me a loan.John: Hey, Se-Jin, I was just on my way to find you.Se-Jin: What’s up, JohnJohn: Se-Jin, I’m kind of broke, and you usually have a bundle tucked away. I wonder if you could give me a loan.Se-Jin: Dream on! I’m hard up myself.John: You see, I want to buy some new stereo equipment, and I’m just about a hundred short.Se-Jin: Why not save up for itJohn: The stores have all stuff on a huge sales promotion right now. I could save at least 30 percent!S-Jin: John, I’d lend you money if you were in a jam. But a new stereo isn’t an emergency.John: Then I’m afraid I have to find someone who is more easy-going.Now Your TurnA: Hi, I was trying to catch up with you.B: What happenedA: Money had burned a hole in my pocket. You usually have some savings. I wonder if you can lend me some moneyB: You’re daydreaming. I’m short of money myself.A: Look, I want to buy a digital camera, and I’m only short of 150 bucks.B: Why not save towards itA: The camera is on sale right now. This can save me almost 25 percent.B: Well, I’d lend you the money if you were in real redouble. But a new camera isn’t urgent.A: Then I’m afraid I’ll have to try someone who’s more generous.V. Let’s TalkStory of a MiserThere was a miser who loved money more than anything else. Just before he died, he said to his wife, “Now, listen. When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. I want to take my money to the afterlife with me.”He made her promise with all her heart that when he dies, she would pit all the money in the casket with him. Then he died. He was laid in the casket, his wife was sitting there wearing black, and her friend was sitting next to her.When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got already to close the casket, the wife said, “Wait a minute!” She had a box with her. She came over with the box and put it in the casket.Then the undertakers locked the casket down, and they rolled it away. He friend said, “Girl, I know you weren’t fool enough to put all that money in there with your husband!”She said, “Listen, I’m a Christian. I can’t go back on my word. I promise him that I would put all the money in the casket with him.”“You mean you really put that money in the casket with him!”“I surely did,” said the wife. “I wrote him a check.”1.more than2.money casket3.promise4.in the casket5.sitting black6.next to/beside7.close8. a box9.away/off10.foolish all that money/the money11.a Christian on her word12.put the money13.a checkVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Giving Money to a BeggarSusan: Hey, Robert, you gave that beggar some of your hard-earned cash Robert: I know. He looked as if he needed help.Susan: Buy you’re always so careful with your money.Robert: Yeah, I guess so, but I like to help when someone’s in need.Susan: I just wonder why the guy doesn’t get a job and make his own living. Robert: It’s just not that simple, Susan. Some people have a hard time of it in life. Susan: Maybe they waste all their money. If you give them money, they will just go on wasting it.Robert: Life has been good to me, Susan, and I’d like to share some of my luck.1.the beggar2.as if3.help4.careful with/about5. a job6.people7. a hard time8.waste9.share10.good luckTask 2: Buying a MachineAn American manufacturer is showing his machine factory to a potential customer. At noon, when the lunch bell rings, two thousand men and women immediately stop working and leave the building.“Your workers, they’re escaping!” cries the visitor. “You’ve got to stop them.”“Don’t worry, they’ll be back,” says the American. And indeed, an exactly one 0’clock the bell rings again, and all the workers return from their break.When the tour is over, the manufacturer turn s to his guest and says, “Well, now, which of these machines would you like to order”“Forget the machines,” says the visitor. “How much do you want for that bell”Task 3: An Introduction to Credit CardsCredit cards are plastic cards issued by a bank or other financial institutions allowing the holder to buy goods and service without using cash. Many American don’t like to carry much cash. For them the cards are convenient and safe to use.Credit cards are gaining popularity, even for buying small items. They are accepted almost everywhere, though not at fast food restaurants.Credit cards allow you to purchase things that you may not currently have the money to buy. When you use a credit card, the credit card company that issued the credit card pays the store. Later, a bill will be mailed to you by your credit card company for the amount you purchased. At that time, you can either pay the bill in full, or only pay a minimum amount, and wait till later to finish paying. If you wait till later, you will owe the credit card company interest on the amount that you do not pay.SpeakingCan you change a twenty-dollar billCashier: How can I help you, MissJill: Could you change a 20 for meCashier: Sure. How do you want itJill: Could I have two 5’s, but not enough 1’s. Are quarters all right with you Cashier: Well, I have some 5’s, but not enough 1’s. Are quarters all right with youJill: Oh, that’s even better! In that case, I won’t have to worry about the small change for the laundry.Cashier: Here you are!Jill: Thanks a million!。

My old ones look kind of funny.Father: Funny! We just bought those last spring. There’s a lot of life left in them.Richard: But look at this ad with Yao Ming. He says these shoes give him extra spring. Father: Yao Ming is so tall that he doesn’t need extra spring. Anyway, he makes money than I do. And they probably give him millions of dollars to wear those shoes.Richard: But if you bought me the shoes, I’d wear them for nothing. And I’d have that extra spring.Father: Do you think Yao Ming reached the top just because of the shoes he wears? Or was it something else?Richard: You mean like hard work, dedication, that sort of thing?Father: Exactly. Just focus on your studies and forget the shoes.1. shoes2. look kind of funny3. there is still a lot of life left4. ad5. give him extra spring6.as much money7. need extra spring8. millions of dollars9.wearing the shoes 10. wear 11. for nothing 12. reach the top13. because of 14. something lese 15. hard work and dedication16. focus/concentrate on his studies 17. forgetTask 2: I’ll get a camera.One day just before closing time, John rushed into a TV store to buy a color TV set with the money he had saved for three months. The friendly shop assistant was waiting for the day’s last and 100th customer to reach his sales target for his bonus, so he warmly greeted John and showed him the various models on display. He asked John to see how sharp and colorful the imagine on the screen was. At that moment, a new commercial came onto the screen, introducing a popular brand of camera as well as some beautiful pictures it had taken. The camera and pictures attracted John. He suddenly changed his mind and told the shop assistant: “Thank you for the TV commercial. Now I have to hurry to the camera store to get that camera.”1.T2.F3.F4.T5.FTask 3: Don’t even think about it!“Don’t even think about it!”is a phrase commonly used in the United States when a person emphatically denies or refuse something.In 1995, Shaquille O’ Neal, a popular basketball player, made a Pepsi commercial in which this phrase was used. The commercial begins with Shaq playing basketball, and a little kid is watching him. Then the boy cries out the name of this basketball star. Shaq turns to see the kid with a Pepsi n his hand. He walks over to the boy and says, “Hey, can I have it?” He bends over, supposing thathis admirer will give him the Pepsi. But then the kid says, “Don’t even think about it!”This commercial was rather popular, and it had been shown on TV for about three years. The commercial seems to have a more dramatic effect than that produced by the Coca-Cola company in the 1970s. In the Coke ad a young boy meets football star “Mean” Joe Green as he is leaving the field a game. The boy gives his hero a bottle of Coke, and in exchange for the drink, the football player throws to the boy, who excitedly catches the souvenir.The phrase “Don’t even think about it!” is used on many other occasions. Visitors to New York City are often amused to see a road sign with these words: “Don’t even think about parking here.”This road sign means that people are strictly prohibited from parking there.1. A2.D3.B4.C5.CIV. Speaking OutModel 1 Who pays?Laura: Hey!Bob: Hey! Look, this is a cool TV commercial. “Things go better with Coke!”Laura: I think the Pepsi commercial is just as attractive: “The choice of a new generation!”Bob: Yeah, but the competitors are just canceling out each other’s efforts.Laura: That’s quite true. They both spend piles of money to increase their market shares, but neither gains.Bob: I’m afraid the extra costs of advertising will be passed on to the consumers.Laura: I hear that the advertising produces a good image of a product, and that leads to consumer brand loyalty.Bob: What do you mean by consumer brand loyalty?Laura: It means consumers are loyal to a certain product and keep buying it. Also, they’re willing to pay more.Bob: It seems contradictory. In other words, more sales mean lower production costs, but more advertising means higher costs to the consumer.In the end the winner is of course the company.Laura: That’s true!Now Your TurnA: Look, “Make yourself heard!” The Ericsson’s TV commercial is so cool.B: I think the Nokia’s commercial is just as fascinating: “Connecting People.”A: I’m afraid consumers will have to pay for the advertising.B: I hear that the advertisements create as a favorable on\mage of a product, and that leads to consumer brand loyalty.A: Could you explain “consumer brand loyalty”?B: I mean consumers identify with the product and keep buying it. Sometimes they’re even willing to pay more.A: It is contradictory that increases sales lead to a lower production cost per unit, but more advertising results in greater costs for consumers. The winner is always the company.B: I agree.Model 2 Beware of ads!Peter: Mind if I switch channels? Those TV commercials are killing me.Jane: How can you say that? Watch: “Take Toshiba, take the world.” Fantastic! There’s a product you can depend on. A powerful product.Peter: If I were you, I wouldn’t trust those commercials.Jane: Now, look at this McDonald’s commercials! Aren’t those little kids cute? Oh, and there’s such a warm family feeling.Peter: Just how an advertising agency wants you to see McDonald’s. you’re the target audience.When they make TV commercials, they use scientific methods to learn what you’ll like and buy.Jane: Are you telling me those darling little children biting into Big Macs are part of a scientific project to get me into McDonald’s?Peter: Advertises don’t bother with facts more. Instead they want the end-user—that’s you—to fall in love with their product.Jane: I see. So what you’re saying is, “Watch out, or commercials will take over your life.”Now Your TurnA: Shall we switch to another channel? I don’t like those TV commercials.B: Why do you think so? Look: Just do it! What a powerful product.A: I doubt it.B: Now, look at this L’Oreal commercial. The model’s skin is so smooth.A: This is what they want you to believe: use the product and you will get the same skin.B: You mean they are lying about the product? I don’t really think so.A: Advertisers now appeal to emotions, not reason. They want you to like their product.B: Well, I don’t really agree with you, but we can switch to another channel.Model 3 Are the free magazines free?Peter: Jane, what’s that magazine you’re reading?Jane: It’s one of those free magazine you can pick up around town. It’s got some pretty interesting articles in it.Peter: Wake up, Jane! It’s not free at all. Look at it: It’s all advertising.Jane: Maybe so, but if the advertising pays for the magazine, then I don’t have to.Peter: Sure you do. The cost of the ads is built into the products.Jane: Still, I think advertising serves a useful purpose. It tells me about new products.Peter: A lot of companies spend more money on advertising than on making quality products. Jane: But some commercials are really fascinating. Besides, you have the freedom to choose not to look at the ads.Peter: Well, it’s time to cook dinner.Now Your TurnA: What’s that brochure you’re reading?B: It’s a giveaway brochure you can easily find here and there. It’s got some pretty interesting things in it.A: Do you really think so? It’s not really free. Look at all the ads in it.B: Could be, but I don’t have to pay for it.A: You bet you do. The cost6oof the ads is included in the products.B: Still, I think advertising tells me about new products. It helps me in choosing what to buy.A: This is just what the advertisers want you to do.B: But some commercials are really fascinating. Besides, you’re didn’t have to believe all the ads. A: Well, let’s go swimming.V. Let’s TalkA Job Ad for a Friendly EmployeeA firm advertising for a “friendly”employee has been asked to change its wording because it discriminates against unfriendly people.Travelco, a travel agency, put in a request for a “Friendly employee” to provide food for its staff. But the Job Center in Bristol told managing director Harry Smith that he would have to remove the word “friendly” before the advertisement could be accepted.Mr. Smith said he could not believe the decision and thought it was “ridiculous.” He said: “We were told we could not use that particular word because it was discriminatory against people who looked unfriendly. We thought it was ridiculous. It’s only too natural for us to specify what kind of people we want.” He added, “The people at the center have since said they thought they had been a little over the top.”The center had made it a rule that certain words were nor allowed in ads and the words “motivated” and “enthusiastic” had been banned in the past.An official of the center said: “We do have guidelines of not using personality characteristics in advertisements to ensure that there is no discrimination in the process.”She added: “We should leave the dispute to the local judges. They’ll make the final decision. It’sVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Banning Cigarette AdsNancy: Hey, Robert, what do you think about cigarette ads?Robert: They’re disgusting. Many countries have banned tobacco ads completely.Nancy: I heard in the States advertises are not allowed to show young people smoking cigarettes, neither are ads targeted at youth allowed.Robert: But advertises keep finding ways around the law. Some years ago one cigarette ad showed a deer smoking, but it was dressed in a university sweater. Obviously the ad is trying to attract young people.Nancy: In order to increase sales, they have to make smoking appealing to young people. Make them think it’s cool.Robert: Right.

In today’s business world, supply usually outnumbers demand. There is great competition among different manufacturers of the same kind of product to attract customers to their product. They always have to remind the consumer of the name and the qualities of their product. They do this by advertising. The manufacturers advertise in the newspapers and on posters. They sometimes pay for songs about their product in commercial radio programs. They employ attractive salesgirls to distribute samples. They organizes competitions, with prizes for the winners. They often advertise on the screens of local cinemas. Most important of all, in countries that have television, they have advertisements put into programs that will accept them. Manufacturers often spend large sums of money on advertisements. Sometimes they even spend more on ads than on the products themselves. We usually think so because of the advertisements that say so. Some people never pause to ask themselves if the advertisements are telling the truth.1.A2.C3.B4.D5.DSpeakingInfluence of a High-Profile StarJill: Hey, isn’t that the same jacket the soccer star Roberto wears in that magazine ad?

An experienced exporting firm extends credit cautiously. It evaluates new customers withcare and continuously monitors older accounts. Such a firm may wisely decide to decline a customer’s request for open account credit if the risk is too great and propose insteadpayment on delivery terms through a documentary sight draft or irrevocable confirmedletter of credit or even payment in advance. On the other hand, for a fully creditworthycustomer, the experienced exporter may decide to allow a month or two to pay, perhapseven on open account.2.1)Cash in advance;2)Documentary letter of credit;3)Documentary collection or draft;4)Open account; and5)Other payment mechanisms, such as consignment sales.3. Drafts that are paid upon presentation are called sight drafts. Drafts that are to be paid at alater date, often after the buyer receives the goods, are called time drafts or date drafts.4. The exporter usually expects the buyer to pay the charges for the letter of credit, but somebuyers may not agree to this added cost. In such cases, the exporter must either absorb the costs of the letter of credit or risk losing that potential sale. Letters of credit for smaller amounts can be somewhat expensive since fees can be high relative to the sale.5. In a foreign transaction, an open account can be a convenient method of payment if thebuyer is well established, has a long and favorable payment record, or has been thoroughly checked for creditworthiness. With an open account, the exporter simply bills the customer, who is expected to pay under agreed terms at a future date. Some of the largest firms abroad make purchases only on open account.Exporters contemplating a sale on open account terms should thoroughly examine the political, economic, and commercial risks. They should also consult with their bankers if financing will be needed for the transaction before issuing a pro forma invoice to a buyer.Unit Five PackingI.

Richard said that the high-speed assembly line was designed and made by their engineers and technicians. Then Thomas wondered how much the factory spent on new product development every year and how soon the order would be delivered. Richard told him that 8% to 10% of the gross sales was spent on new product development. He also said that delivery of new products depended on the size of the order and the items. Finally, Thomas asked Richard to give him some brochures on the products because he wanted his manager to know about them. Richard also said that Thomas’s manager would be welcome to visit the factory.

The reason being that, first, form products do not generally sell at a high price so we have to keep production costs down. Secondly, taxes are fairly high at present and we have less support from the government, so our incomes are decreasing. That’s why I think the price is my greatest concern. On the other hand, if we can improve quality by buying better seeds and improving our handing methods, we can sell at a premium. That could increase our income.Part Ⅵ1.(1) c (2) a (3) c (4) b (5) c2.Agents need to be paid for their work.

七夕,古今诗人惯咏星月与悲情。
吾生虽晚,世态炎凉却已看透矣。
情也成空,且作“挥手袖底风”罢。

乃书于纸上。

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 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 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 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. Happy Birthday to You4. Happy Birthday to You Good Morning to AllPossible 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 altogether. 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.

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!

Listening InTask 1: Waiting for the New Harry Potter MovieAmy: I’m so excited about finally seeing this movie!Peter: Me too. I’m crazy about Harry Potter. Have you heard that J.K. Rowling has added another book to the series?Amy: She’s already written Book Seven? I’m still waiting for Book Five…Peter: I know. Who isn’t? At least we have the movies to watch in the meantime.Amy: By the way, have you seen the trailer yet?Peter: Yeah. It was great! I think the movie itself will be really scary.Amy: It surely will! All that writing on the wall in blood… It scares me to death just to think about it!Both the girl and the boy are excited/crazy about the movie and the hero Harry Potter. 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 so me 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. This is a sad, touching story that you should not miss.1. He likes to see movies and comment on them.2. Four.3. Three.4.

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.It’s a killer flick.A: Really? 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 I don’t think the character development was so strong.A: Yes, the characterization was rather weak. Do you think it is because of the casting of the movie?B: No, the cast was strong. 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 afew 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. Furthering Listening and Speaking ListeningTask 1: Only One LinePeter has always wanted to be an actor, but never succeeded because he had a hard time memorizing lines. 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. He hearda loud BOOM and cried out in spite of himself, “WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?”1. memorizing lines2. remember one line3. I hear the guns roar4. a loud boom5. his lineTask 2: An Interview with J.K. 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. Movies based on the books won several Oscar nominations. Readers are now keen to know the plot of the next book. Harry Potter movie fans will get a long-awaited treat. The movie Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret is finally about to come out. This time around, Harry discovers a frightening secret at Hogwarts School. Eager readers of the first four Harry Potter books are also trying to discover a secret, the secret plot of the fifth book in the series. Because of the long wait since Book Four, they are guessing many things. Some think that Professor Lupin will die or that Harry and his friend Ron may be related!J.K. Rowling herself has only said that Book Five will be shorter and scarier than Book Four. To make sure her readers hear only rumors, she locks all her ideas for the books in a hidden place. Since the next book does not come out until 2003, for mow Harry’s secret is safe with her!1. D2.C3.A4.BSpeakingViews on MoviesInterviewer: Hello, Robert and Richard, I’d like to ask you something about movies. Do you prefer going to the theater or watching movies on video at home? Robert: I prefer, personally, going to the theater, because I believe there are certain movies that come over better when you see them in a large theater. The soundeffect is much better.Interviewer: What about you, Richard?Richard: Just the opposite. It’s more comfortable to sit at home.Interviewer: There’re many different movie genres, for example, science fiction, action, comedy, romance. What’s your personal favorite?Robert: My favorite would be action movies.Richard: And mine would be nice movies that touch me deeply.Interviewer: How do you like the old black and white movies of the forties, and fifties compared with the modern blockbusters?Robert: For their time, the movies of the forties and fifties were excellent. But try to compare them with today’s technology, and you’ll find there isn’t anything tocompare. It’s so superior today.Richard: I agree.UNIT3II. Listening Skills1.
