Unit5Part 1 Listening, Understanding and SpeakingListening IScriptPart AJennifer is talking to an interviewer about her nightmare.Jennifer: It was always the same. Always. I was in a house, a strange house, and I knew somehow that I shouldn‘t have gone in. But there was some strange force pulling me. There were some stairs…very steep stairs… and I started to climb them, and … and then, suddenly fell. Then when I was at the bottom of the stairs, I suddenly realized that there was someone…or something else in the house with me, and that these eyes had been watching me all the time, and…I knew then that something terrible…was going to happen to me…that I was going to be punished…because I‘d done something I shouldn‘t have done. I didn‘t know what it was, but I knew it was wrong, very wrong. Then I could hear it…whatever it was in the house with me…coming closer in the darkness, because everything was dark, you see, and it came closer and closer. And I was scared…and there was nothing, nothing I could do to avoid it…nothing. I was trapped! Trapped in that dark house at the bottom of the stairs. There was no way out.Interviewer: And how often…Jennifer: No way out !Part BInterviewer: How often have you had this nightmare?Jennifer: When I was in college, just about every time I had an exam. And then, a few years later, when I was taking an intensive Italian course in Italy, I had the same dream again. Just the same as before.Interviewer: And you discussed it with a psychoanalyst ?Jennifer: Yes, later, after I came back to Los Angles, I started therapy, and this dream came up, and we discussed it quite a bit.Interviewer: And what did the psychoanalyst say?Jennifer: He said…uh…you have to be very careful about interpreting dreams, but we both agreed that the dream was a symbol of my fear of failure…of disappointing my parents when I was in college, for example, by failing my dreams, or…or when I was taking that Italian course, I remember how scared I was sometimes. Interviewer: Scared of what?Jennifer: Of making mistakes in class, in front of the teacher or the other students. I was always in fear.Interviewer: I see.Jennifer: And the dream was a kind of classic symbol of that fear…of the fear of failure. Falling down stairs in a dream is a symbol of that. The two words are very similar.Interviewer: Which…which two words? Oh, you mean…Jennifer: Y es, fall-fail, falling-failure. V ery similar, aren‘t they?Listening IIScriptNew research shows that dreams are often distorted reflections of our daily life. many experts now believe our dreams are so closely related to our waking lives that we can use them to help us recognize our inner conflicts.According to some experts, men and women dream differently because of biological and social conditioning. In a study of 1000 dreams, half from each sex, experts found that men more often have action dreams .Usually these are set outdoors or in unfamiliar surroundings. Women dream more about emotional struggles with loved ones, usually in indoor settings. As more women have careers, their dreams might become more like man‘s. Researchers have found that while housewives dream more about children, women in the workplace dream about bosses and colleagues. Small children who are easily scared dream about frightening animals and monsters that that chase and attack them. Teenagers dream about romance and sex.Some dream researchers found in a study that people between 21and 34 have more anxiety over issues of right and wrong in their dreams, possibly because they are making importance decisions about career, marriage and life direction. People of age 35 to 49 are much less hostile toward others in their dreams, perhaps because they are reaching their greatest achievement and have less need for aggression while awake. After age 65, anxiety about aging appears much more often in people‘s dreams.If life stages affect our dreams, so do out attitudes. Studies show that angry people act out their anger in their dreams, and depressed people sometimes dream they are victim of rejection.Creative people often use their dreams to solve problems. According to the author Naomi Epel, when some writers, artists or scientists go to sleep, they ask their subconscious for a dream that will help them solve problems.Listening IIIScriptAlmost all people day dreaming during a normal day. We tend to daydreaming the most during those quiet times when we are alone in our cars, sitting in waiting rooms, or preparing for bed. day dreaming or fantasizing is not abnormal; it is a basic human characteristic. Most people have reported that they enjoy their day dreams . Some people have very probable and realistic daydreams while others have unrealistic fantasies such as inheriting a million dollars.Psychologists report that men daydream as much as women , but subject of their daydreams or fantasies is different. Men day dream more about being heroes and good athletes while women tend to daydream about fashions and beauty. As people grow older, they tend to fantasize less, although it is still common in old age. Older people tend to daydream a lot about the past. daydreaming or fantasizing enters into the games of children. Psychologists believe that it is very important for children to participate in fantasy play . It is a normal part of their development. It helps childrendevelop and explore their imagination.Daydreaming has advantages and disadvantages In some situations it can reduce a person's fear or anxiety. can also keep us entertained or awake under dull or boring conditions. Unfortunately, to engage in a daydream or fantasy, we must divert part of our attention from our environment. When it is important for us to remain alert and pay attention to what is going on around us, day dreaming can cause problems. Listening IVScriptA Dream Within A DreamTake this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow---Y ou are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Y es if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?All that we see or seemIs but a dream within a dream.I stand amid the roarOf a surf-tormented shore,And I hold within my handGrains of the golden sand---How few! Y et how they creepThrough my fingers to the deep,While I weep---while I weep!O God! Can I not graspThen with a fighter clasp?O God! Can I not saveOne from the pitiless wave?Is all that we see or seemBut a dream within a dream?Part 4 Further Speaking and ListeningFurther ListeningListening IScriptIn 1865 ,in a small town in Germany ,a little boy was very sick. His name was Max Hoffman.―Will our son die ?‖ Max‘s parents asked the doctor.―Maybe,‖ the doctor said quietly .‖Stay with Max .Keep him warm .That‘s all you can do .‖For three days Max lay in his bed . Then he died .He was only five years old .Max‘s parents buried their son in the town cemetery .That night Max‘s mother had a terrible dream. She dreamed that Max was moving in his coffin . She screamed in her sleep.―Sh ,sh,‖ her husband said. ―It‘s all right .Y ou had a bad dream.‖The next night Max‘s mother screamed in her sleep again . She had the same terrible dream.On the third night Max‘s mother had another bad dream. She dreamed that Max was crying . She got out of bed and got dressed. ―Quick! Get dressed ,‖she told her husband . ―We‘re going to the cemetery .I want to see Max. I want to dig up his coffin.‖At four o‘clock in the morning Max‘s parent and a neighbor hurried to the cemetery .They dug up Max‘s coffin and opened it . There was Max .He looked dead. But he wasn‘t lying on his back . He was lying on his side.Max‘s father carried Max home . Then he ran to get the doctor .For an hour the doctor rubbed whisky on Max‘s lips and warmed his body. Then Max opened his eyes .Max was alive ! A week later he was playing with his friends.Max Hoffman died—really died—in the United State in 1953. He was 93 year old . Listening IIScript(A couple is talking about their 8-year-old daughter ,Debbie .They also have a son ,Barry ,who is 16.)Mother : I had to go in to Debbie twice last night .She was having these terrible nightmares! She was screaming and shouting and she kept trying to push me away .She was yelling , ―Don‘t hurt me ! Don‘t hurt me !‖Father : What was wrong with her then ?Mother : I don‘t know. I couldn‘t get a word out of her when she woke up this morningFather: Does Barry know anything about it ? Didn‘t she go with him to his friend‘s yesterday afternoon ? Wait a minute , I‘ll give him a shout . Barry ! Come here , Will you ?Barry: What‘s up?Father: Didn‘t you say you were going to watch a video at your friend‘s yesterday? Mother: Well, what exactly did you watch ? Debbie‘s been having the most terrible nightmares.Barry: Oh, I don‘t know ! Some film his dad had left lying around . About a man who had been burned to death in a car crash, who came back from the dead to take revenge on young girls . He tears them to bits and eats them. It was a young girl , see , who ran in front of his car and made him crash . Don‘t know why it‘s giving her nightmares. Itwas really stupid , if you ask me ! Anyway, she didn‘t have to watch it . did she ? Mother:Y ou should have more sense at your age . Y ou should have stopped her watching it.Father:I blame the people who made films like that. They shouldn‘t be allowed to make them . They must be really sick! All they care about is making money –they don‘t care they are doing to kid s‘ minds.Listening IIIScriptDear Editor,Y our paper is great . I read with great interest your interpretation of dreams of teeth falling out .It is the same interpretation that many others use as well : needing to be heard etc. I myself had this dream repeatedly and was dying to know what it meant , as is was always confusing and disturbing . However , I was always unsatisfied with the ― needing to be heard ‖ thing.Y our might note that many people who have this dream are feeling worried , depressed or frightened as their teeth are falling out painlessly .Sometime they even try to keep the teeth from falling out . Finally I came up with a different interpretation , which fitted me much better . In fact , I‘ve had fewer dreams of this sort now .So I thought you might be interested .For me , the dream means I am talking TOO MUCH . It means thoughtlessness ,telling secrets , gossiping un wisely . And it‘s my subconscious warning me .Now ,if I have this dream ,I know I have been unwise with my big mouth ! Trying to cram the teeth back in , or stop them falling out ,or trying to find a dentist , actually means trying to stop the words or gossip from coming out , and the feelings of depression are reflecting the regret of being too revealing –usually to an enemy . I am much more aware of this now and not such a big mouth ! Maybe you could add to your interpretation,Best,KatieListening IVScriptSleep is something we generally associate with living creatures. Of course, it is true that a lot of animals sleep, but zoologists are not certain that primitive forms of animals life, like worms and snails, even really sleep. On the other hang, animals such as bears sleep for 4 or 5 months every year.The amount of sleep a human being needs depends on age, the individual and possibly race. .For example, doctors think that pre-school children need between 10 and12 hours a night; school children between 9 and 11 hours, and adults between 7and9 hours. There are exceptional cases of old people who sleep only between 2 and 3 hours a day and continue to be active and healthy. The sleep requirements of different races also appear to be different. Japanese people, for example, sleep, sleep fewer hours than Europeans.It is not known for certain if certain if mental activity (apart from dreaming) occurs when a person is asleep. However, it is certainly true that some people can wake up at a specific, pre-determined time. There are also stories about mathematicians who solve difficult problems during sleep, because their subconscious minds continue working on the problem.Some types of unpleasant dreams (or ‗‗nightmares‘‘)are quite common, the dreams is taking a test, but is not properly prepared. he is falling from a tree ,or an animal or thing is chasing him. Some people say these last two occur because man‘s ancestors lived in trees and were in constant danger from wild animals.。

The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of this bird’s mouth was rude. John tried every method to change the bird’s attitude by constantly saying polite words, playing soft music, and anything he could think of to set a good example. Nothing worked. Finally, John got fed up and he yelled at the parrot. And the bird yelled back. John shook the parrot, and the bird got angrier and ruder. Finally, in a moment of desperation, John put the bird in the refrigerator freezer. For a few minutes, John heard the bird scream and kick. Then suddenly there was silence. Not a sound for over a minute. Fearing that he’s hurt the bird, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out and said, “I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I am truly sorry, and I will do everything I can to correct my poor behavior.”John was greatly surprised at the bird’s change of attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had caused such a sudden change in his behavior, the bird continued, “May Ii ask why you put the chickens there and what they did wrong?”1.C2.D3.B4.C5.AIV. Speaking OutModel 1 The dog will be company for her.John: Se-Jin, come shopping with me. I’m buying a present for my mother.Se-Jin: What are you getting her?John: I’ve got just the perfect idea. A dog.Se-Jin: A dog? Would she like that?John: She’ll love it. My dad works long hours each day, and I think with me away at school, she is a bit lonely. And I’ll just get a small one, a Pekinese.Se-Jin: Good idea! The dog will be company for her.Now Your TurnA: Hi, come shopping with me. I want to buy a gift for my neighbor.B: What for?A: His wife died a couple of weeks ago, and he is feeling lonely. He’s been kind to us.

The dog can keep him company.Model 2 Where to walk dogs?Bob: There’s some talk of a businessman building a dog park in Shanghai.Laura: Really, what on earth for?Bob: Apparently there is a law against having dogs on the streets.Laura: Does it mean that the dogs have to stay inside apartments at all times?Bob: It sounds pretty cruel, doesn’t it? Maybe the park is a good idea.Laura: Maybe they should just allow people to walk their dogs on the streets.Bob: But in many large cities where dogs can be walked, the streets are a mess. I heard Paris is the worst.Laura:Couldn’t people just clean up after their dogs?Bob:Would they?Now Your TurnA: Have you heard the city has passes a law against walking dogs in the streets?B: Sure, it’s published in the newspapers.A: It means that dogs have to be kept inside all the time.B: It’s rather cruel, isn’t it? We shouldn’t be so cruel to dumb animals.A: But dogs often leave a mess from their dogs.B: But owners can clean up the mess from their dogs.A: Would they?B: Perhaps the best solution is to build a dog park.

He spent several minutes looking at the meat on display. He finally fixed his eyes on the lamb chops and barked, showing that he wanted to buy some of them. The butcher, thinking the dog wouldn’t know the difference, picked out the worst chops. The dog barked angrily and continued to bark until the butcher selected the finest chops. After the butcher took the money from the dog’s mouth, the dog picked up the chops and left the shop.The butcher was deeply impressed and decided that he would like to own a clever dog like that. He closed up shop and followed the dog to see where it went. The dog entered an apartment house, climbed to the third floor, and began to scratch on the door. With that, the door opened and an angry man started yelling at the dog. As he did so, the butcher stepped forward to ask the man to stop. “What are you doing?” That’s the smartest animal I’ve ever seen! Surely it doesn’t deserve this kind of treatment.” The butcher then went on to explain how the dog had bought the best lamb chops in the shop. The man looked at the butcher from the corner of his eye and said, “I don’tVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: A Birthday PresentMary: David, how did your mom like the dog you gave her for a birthday gift?David: Oh, Mary, she was delighted. It licked her hand and wagged its tail and she was hooked. Mary: What did she call it?David: She’s calling it “Brian”, after a friend of hers.Mary: Your mom always did have a sense of humor. I read somewhere that dogs can become very close to their owners.David: I’ve heard that. I saw an interview on TV with a man who had epileptic attacks, and his dog would warn him before he would have an attack.Mary: Really? I wonder how they can do that1David: It ahs something to do with the dog’s sense of smell. It’s very keen.Mary: Do you think Brian will be able to foretell when your mom is going to roast a chicken?After David gave his mom a dog as a birthday present, she was very pleased, for the dog licked her hand and wagged its tail. She called it Brian after one of her friends. Mary read an article which says that dogs can be faithful to their owners/masters. David agreed, for he saw a TV interview which introduced a dog that could warn its master of an epileptic attack. He explained that this ability of the dog’s has something to do with its keen sense of smell. Jokingly, Mary said she wounded whether the dog Brian can foretell/predict when David’s mom is going to roast a chicken.Task 2: 100 Percent Polar BearOne afternoon in the Arctic, a father polar bear and his son polar bear were sitting in the snow. The son turned to his father and asked, “Dad, am I 100 percent polar bear?”“Of course, son, you’re 100 percent polar bear.”A few minutes passed, and the bear turned to his father again and said, “Dad, tell me the truth. I can take it. Am I 100 percent polar bear? No brown bear or panda bear?”“Son, I’m 100 percent polar bear and your mother is 100 percent polar bear, so you’re certainly 100 percent polar bear.”A few minutes passed, and the son polar bear again turned to his father and asked, “Dad, don’t worry. But it’ll hurt my feelings if it’s not true. I really need to know…am I really 100 percent polar bear?”Somewhat angered by this continued questioning, the father polar bear yelled at his son, “Why on earth do you keep asking is you’re 100 percent polar bear?”“Because I’m freezing to death out here!”1.T2.F3.F4.T5.FTask 3: An Introduction to Advertising“Are you ready to go to work?” a woman asks her dog Sydney. The dog was her tail. Then shestarts sniffing around inside the house. Sydney is hunting for mold. When she sits down, that means she smells mold nearby. Usually mold is found within three or four feet. A boy who lives in this house has epileptic attacks. It could be from mold. His mother wanted to find the mold. She tried other ways to find it, but they didn’t work. She said she trusted the dog more than the other ways. Workers found mold near where Sydney sat. Nobody had thought to look for mold there before. Now it can be cleaned out and the boy will feel much better.Sydney is very special. Only about ten animals in the U.S. can do this. She spent hundreds of hours with a police dog trainer in Florida to learn how. In the U.S., people have used dogs to find drugs and bombs for a long time, but dogs that find mold are something new.People in Europe have used mold-sniffing dogs for many years. Dogs are cheaper to use than human trackers and can find exactly where the mold is. They also do it quickly and for less than %500. Other methods may cost thousands of dollars and take many weeks.1.D2.C3.B4.A5.DSpeakingA Funeral for a Dead FishNancy: Westerners often take pets as their friends, even their family members. Especially dogs They think dogs are man’s best friends.Michael: What pets do people usually keep?Nancy: A lot. Fish, cats, horses… anything could be a pet.Michael: Do you have a pet?Nancy: I have three fish. One day, the fish called Susan died. We even had a funeral for her. Michael: A funeral?Nancy: Yes, usually it’s a ceremony for dead people. But we had a funeral for the dead fish. Michael: Sounds interesting.Nancy: Well, I need to go back to feed my fish.

I think Jennifer’s nightmare has something to do with her fear of failure, failure in exams, failure in living up to her Parents’expectations etc. She probably didn’t do well at collage and she had experienced failures. What she feared in life was represented in her dream.2. I often have nightmares and my nightmares are generally the same. One typical nightmare I have is that I am chased by someone and I try to run fast but I can’t. And usually when I am about to be caught I wake up, sometimes sweating all over. I’ve told people about it and the interpretation given is that my schedule is too tight most of the time. I don’t know how Freud would interpret it, but the interpretation seems to make sense.ScriptPart AJennifer is talking to an interviewer about her nightmare.Jennifer: It was always the same. Always. I was in a house, a strange house, and I knew somehow that I shouldn’t have gone in. But there was some strange force pulling me. There were some stairs…very steep stairs… and I started to climb them, and … and then, suddenly fell. Then when I was at the bottom of the stairs, I suddenly realized that there was someone…or something else in the house with me, and that these eyes had been watching me all the time, and…I knew then that something terrible…was going to happen to me…that I was going to be punished…because I’d done something I shouldn’t have done. I didn’t know what it was, but I knew it was wrong, very wrong. Then I could hear it…whatever it was in the house withme…coming closer in the darkness, because everything was dark, you see, and it came closer and closer. And I was scared…and there was nothing, nothing I could do to avoid it…nothing. I was trapped! Trapped in that dark house at the bottom of the stairs. There was no way out.Interviewer: And how often…Jennifer: No way out !Part BInterviewer: How often have you had this nightmare?Jennifer: When I was in college, just about every time I had an exam. And then, a few years later, when I was taking an intensive Italian course in Italy, I had the same dream again. Just the same as before.Interviewer: And you discussed it with a psychoanalyst ?Jennifer: Yes, later, after I came back to Los Angles, I started therapy, and this dream came up, and we discussed it quite a bit.Interviewer: And what did the psychoanalyst say?Jennifer: He said…uh…you have to be very careful about interpreting dreams, but we both agreed that the dream was a symbol of my fear of failure…of disappointing my parents when I was in college, for example, by failing my dreams, or…or when I was taking that Italian course, I remember how scared I was sometimes.Interviewer: Scared of what?Jennifer: Of making mistakes in class, in front of the teacher or the other students. I was always in fear.Interviewer: I see.Jennifer: And the dream was a kind of classic symbol of that fear…of the fear of failure. Falling down stairs in a dream is a symbol of that. The two words are very similar.Interviewer: Which…which two words? Oh, you mean…Jennifer: Yes, fall-fail, falling-failure. Very similar, aren’t they?Listening IIKeysExercise 11.C2. A3. I4. H5. F6.

As a dream symbol, fish,particularly salmon, is associated with knowledge and intelligence. If you dream about eating fish, it is believed that you gain knowledge and wisdom.2.In dreams, the snake has many interpretations. It is regarded as a symbol oftemptation or wisdom. It is also interpreted as someone trying to harm you in underhanded or sneaky manner. In Chinese culture, it is believed that snake is a symbol of fortune in a dream.3.The sword in a dream is a symbol of power, authority, protection, or a need tocut away some part or aspect in your life.4.Something that is covered with dust is something that has not been touchedfor a long time. Therefore, dust in a dream may be a symbol of a shut away emotion, fear, or desire within the conscious.5.Houses in dreams are regarded by many psychoanalysts as representing one’spersonality. If you dream about a beautiful house, you could have a positive self-image. If you dream that you keep moving from house to house, you may have been trying different aspects of your personality, or you may be trying to find out what kind of person you are. And the level of the room in the house is believed to indicate the depth of a particular part of personality in you unconscious. But the basement in a dream, for instance, can be as a symbol of the deepest part your personality.6.Death in ad dream can mean the death or change to a part of yourpersonality or the end of a certain phase in your life, For instance, if you dream that a friend dies, it could mean that you have ended up or you have been feeling the need to end up a period of time spent with them.ScriptNew research shows that dreams are often distorted reflections of our daily life. many experts now believe our dreams are so closely related to our waking lives that we canuse them to help us recognize our inner conflicts.According to some experts, men and women dream differently because of biological and social conditioning. In a study of 1000 dreams, half from each sex, experts found that men more often have action dreams .Usually these are set outdoors or in unfamiliar surroundings. Women dream more about emotional struggles with loved ones, usually in indoor settings. As more women have careers, their dreams might become more like man’s. Researchers have found that while housewives dream more about children, women in the workplace dream about bosses and colleagues. Small children who are easily scared dream about frightening animals and monsters that that chase and attack them. Teenagers dream about romance and sex.Some dream researchers found in a study that people between 21and 34 have more anxiety over issues of right and wrong in their dreams, possibly because they are making importance decisions about career, marriage and life direction. People of age 35 to 49 are much less hostile toward others in their dreams, perhaps because they are reaching their greatest achievement and have less need for aggression while awake. After age 65, anxiety about aging appears much more often in people’s dreams.If life stages affect our dreams, so do out attitudes. Studies show that angry people act out their anger in their dreams, and depressed people sometimes dream they are victim of rejection.Creative people often use their dreams to solve problems. According to the author Naomi Epel, when some writers, artists or scientists go to sleep, they ask their subconscious for a dream that will help them solve problems.Listening IIIKeysExercise 1√2, √3, √6Exercise 2CBCACExercise 3SampleAdvantages of daydreaming●It helps kill boring time.●It helps children develop and explore their imagination.●It can reduce a person’s fear or anxiety.●It can keep us awake under dull conditions.Disadvantages of daydreaming●It can be a waste of time when you spend too much time daydreaming.●Children’s problem-solving skills may weaken if they spend too much time daydreaming instead of putting their imagination into work.●When you realize the wide gap between reality and daydreams, daydreaming can lead to greater anxiety and deeper frustration.●It distracts our attention, and may lead to danger in certain situations, like when we are driving a car.ScriptAlmost all people day dreaming during a normal day. We tend to daydreaming the most during those quiet times when we are alone in our cars, sitting in waiting rooms, or preparing for bed. day dreaming or fantasizing is not abnormal; it is a basic human characteristic. Most people have reported that they enjoy their day dreams . Some people have very probable and realistic daydreams while others have unrealistic fantasies such as inheriting a million dollars.Psychologists report that men daydream as much as women , but subject of their daydreams or fantasies is different. Men day dream more about being heroes and good athletes while women tend to daydream about fashions and beauty. As people grow older, they tend to fantasize less, although it is still common in old age. Older people tend to daydream a lot about the past. daydreaming or fantasizing enters into the games of children. Psychologists believe that it is very important for children to participate in fantasy play . It is a normal part of their development. It helps children develop and explore their imagination.Daydreaming has advantages and disadvantages In some situations it can reduce a person's fear or anxiety. can also keep us entertained or awake under dull or boring conditions. Unfortunately, to engage in a daydream or fantasy, we must divert part of our attention from our environment. When it is important for us to remain alert and pay attention to what is going on around us, day dreaming can cause problems. Listening IVKeysExercise 11) parting2)wrong3) dream4)night5) none6)seem7)shore8) sand9)fingers10) grasp11) save12) waveExercise 1Sample1 The fifth line in the first stanza(诗节), “That my days have been a dream”, indicates that the poet regarded his life as a dream.2 That last two lines of both stanzas are quite similar in the wording “ Is all that we see or seem/ But a dream within a dream,” which means that what we see, appear or hope is even more elusive than the life itself that we are living, and is, therefore, a dream within a dream.3 The “grains of the golden sand”may have referred to the start of the “gold rush”in California in 1848, the year before the poem was written, Another interpretation is that it may symbolize the people or things that the poet had valued and treasured, as he was so eager to “grasp them with a tighter clasp”.4) The “pitiless wave”can be interpreted in two ways. It can be viewed as symbolizing “time”, which is compared to “tide” in the saying “ Time and tide wait for no man”. Or it can be interpreted as “death”, which, just as “time”, sweeps away people around us, no matter how eagerly we’d like them to stay.Exercise 3Sample1 This poem may have been addressed to his beloved (could be his wife) in her death bed, who received a farewell kiss from the poet. This can be seen from the first two lines: “ Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now,…”2 The poet’s hope is expressed in the second stanza. He wished that he could hold onto people and things that he treasured. But he could not stop the time and death taking away his beloved, however hard he tried. His helplessness led to his confusion, which can be seen from more questions posed by the poet in the second stanza. Physically, the poem is very interestingly laid out in two stanzas, just like two layers of dreams: the first being “life”, a dream, and the second layer “hope”, a dream within a dream, which is more confusing than the first. This idea is very similar to that in the movie Inception (《盗梦空间》) --- the more layers of dreams have, the less stable they become.3 The poet’s depressing tone may have resulted from his troubled and miserable life since his childhood. He felt betrayed by everyone. His mother, who died when he was a small child; his biological father, who abandoned him; his step father, who never legally adopted him and who, ultimately, cast him adrift; and, aboveall, his young dead wife, a beauty symbolizing purity and peace in his eyes. Life itself had seemingly thwarted (挫败) his every hope and effort.ScriptA Dream Within A DreamTake this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow---You are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Yes if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?All that we see or seemIs but a dream within a dream.I stand amid the roarOf a surf-tormented shore,And I hold within my handGrains of the golden sand---How few! Yet how they creepThrough my fingers to the deep,While I weep---while I weep!O God! Can I not graspThen with a fighter clasp?O God! Can I not saveOne from the pitiless wave?Is all that we see or seemBut a dream within a dream?Part 3 Viewing, Understanding and SpeakingKeysExercise 1BACDExercise 21.too good to be true2.various kinds of3.igonored4.stand5.has something to do with6.gathering fruit7.can’t afford8.something wrong with9.ripe, at hande trueExercise 4SampleI had a dream after I watched the movie of the Harry Porter series. I was walking down a street when my shoes turned into a pair of roller skates. I skated on the pavement, and saw a section of the road suddenly collapsed. I was about to fall when my roller skaters turned into a broomstick! And before I knew it, I found myself flying in the sky, just as Harry Porter did in the movie.ScriptMary: (She awakes from a sweet dream) Ah…Darling, everything is so wonderful! The sun, the air, the water… I feel as if I were in a dream.John: (He still reads the book with not much response.) A dream? Yes, a dream. Mary: Have a look at the beautiful scenery around you, darling. Don’t you think it’s too good to be true?John: Mm, maybe.Mary: Eh, you aren’t listening to me. What are you reading now?John: (He closes the book.) It’s Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams. Honey, have you ever wondered what’s …what’s the meaning of you dreams? You might get some satisfactory explanations for your dreams from this book, because Freud explains various kinds of dreams in it.Mary: It must be a very interesting book! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have ignored me. It seems to me that I’m not as attractive as Freud.John: Yes, it really is.Mary: Yes? ! You mean I’m not charming enough? I can hardly stand your rudeness. John: Of course not. I mean it’s really an interesting book. Freud says that everything in our dreams has something to do with our real life.Mary: Really? I often dream I’m gathering fruit in an orchard. What does fruit represent in our dreams?John: It predicts good fortune. You’ll be rich, honey.Mary: But the fact is we still can’t afford to buy a house.John: I have to admit that’s absolutely true. I spent about all I had on our honeymoon. Mary: Well, there must be something wrong with your interpretations, darling, I doubt whether dreams can predict the future.John: Before I can be more exact, you have to give me more details.Mary: What further information do you need?John: Well, honey, could you tell me what the color of the fruit is in your dreams? Mary: Er…the fruit doesn’t seem to be ripe. In my dreams, I think it’s green. John: I’ve got it. If the color of the fruit is green, you can’t be rich immediately,because only ripe fruit is interpreted as good fortune at hand.Mary: Oh? Are you sure about that?John: Definitely. I’ve just looked it up in Freud’s book.Mary: Then we’ll just have to wait and see?John: That’s right, honey. Do you have any other happy dreams?Mary: Yes. I had another one just now. It was so sweet that I smiled from ear to ear. Would you like to have another try, Mr. Freud?John:It’s my pleasure, madam. What happened in this dream? I guarantee you I can give you another good explanation.Mary: When I was dozing, I dreamed that you gave me a beautiful diamond necklace as memento of our wonderful honeymoon, what do you think that means?John:(He understands his wife’s actual intention and tries to find a way out.) Er…Er… I’m not sure. Er…maybe I’m not knowledgeable enough! But anyway I can turn to the book for help. Wait a minute!Mary: Take it easy, darling! I’m…I’m sure you know how you can make it come true.John: Too bad!Mary:What’s wrong?John: (He smiles cunningly at his wife.) I’m afraid Freud didn’t tell me how to interpret a daydream, only dreams at night.Mary: Daydream?!John: Yes, it must be a daydream since you had it during the day.Part 3 Video Appreciation and Singing for FunVideo AppreciationKeysExercise 1DEFFExercise 21)Mix the sound2)Drag you back3)seagulls4)taking a walk5)police siren6)pulls off the earphones7)alarming dreamsExercise 31)remained alert2)sounds of danger3)the reason4)are reliant on5)aliveExercise 4Sample●I fell asleep after a session of yoga to a light, soft background music once. Idreamed that I was lying on a beach, basking in the sun, with the waves lapping gently against the rocks, and seagulls flying over me. It was so comfortable and relaxing that I felt energetic again after I woke up from the nap.●I once traveled by train and saw a young mother fast asleep, with thepassengers around chattering away. However, she seemed to be very alert to her 3- or 4-year-old’s cry, even if it was in a very low voice. As I saw it, we can sleep through the sounds that we don’t care about, but tend to be dragged back to wakefulness by sounds that worry us.●I dreamed about taking a math test once before my college entranceexamination. I was still struggling with one tough problem when the bell rang sharply, which signaled the end of the test. I felt like being paralyzed in my seat, unable to move a single inch. When I woke up in misery and sweat, I found the bell was nothing but my alarm clock. To a college entrance exam taker, the bell is indeed a very threatening sound signal.ScriptEpisode 1We live in a world of incessant sounds. During our waking hours, our ears are bombarded with noise. But what happens when we’re asleep? Sleep takes up a third of our lives, and that’s when we’re at our most vulnerable. So our sense of hearing never goes off duty. Even as we sleep our ears detect sounds,and our brain analyses them. But why is it that some noises feature in our dreams, while others can wrench us from our sleep? Weird Science goes into the sleeping brain and our evolutionary past to find out. Every night when we go to sleep our senses shut down, except for our sense of hearing, which stays alert to sounds beyond the bedroom. Sounds are just tiny movements of the air molecules around us, funneled down the ear canal to the eardrum. The moving air makes the eardrum vibrate, and these vibrations are amplified by the tiniest bones in the body and passed to the fluid-filled cochlea. Here, the vibrations send ripples through the fluid which move rows of microscopic hair cells. These create electrical signals sent to the brain.Episode 2The brain may mix the sound into the visuals of your dreams, or drag you back to wakefulness. At Swansea University, Dr. Mrak Blaggrove studies the impact of different noises on the brains of sleeping volunteers. These electrodes allow Mark to monitor Sarah’s brainwaves while she sleeps. Once there are signs that she’s dreaming, he can test the effects of different sounds on her dreams. First she gets a blast of seagulls through her headphones. She sleeps through the noise. But has it changed herdream? (Hi Sarah) Mark waits for a couple of minutes, and then wakes her up and asks what she was dreaming about ( I was on a hilltop…Uh huh). Sarah’s dream was of taking a walk on a windy hilltop. An hour later, Sarah is asleep and dreaming again. Now, the test is a threatening sound --- a police siren. It’s no louder than the seagulls, and for a while, she sleeps through the noise. But then she stirs, and, half-conscious, she pulls off the earphones. Can she remember what she was dreaming about before the noise disturbed her? (Yeah, um ambulances…) Amazingly, even while she was asleep, Sarah heard the sirens and they triggered vivid, alarming dreams. The sound eventually convinced her sleeping brain to wake up.Episode 3So why does the brain deal with sounds in such different ways? The answer can be found in our prehistoric past. Our ancestors needed sleep, but it made them more vulnerable to attack by predators. To safeguard them, their sense of hearing remained alert, listening for the sounds of danger. Now the sounds are different, but the reason for hearing in your sleep is jus the same. For a third of your life, you’re reliant on your sense of hearing to keep you alive.

Then he died .He was only five years old .Max’s parents buried their son in the town cemetery .That night Max’s mother had a terrible dream. She dreamed that Max was moving in his coffin . She screamed in her sleep.“Sh ,sh,” her husband said. “It’s all right .You had a bad dream.”The next night Max’s mother screamed in her sleep again . She had the same terrible dream.On the third night Max’s mother had another bad dream. She dreamed that Max was crying . She got out of bed and got dressed. “Quick! Get dressed ,”she told her husband . “We’re going to the cemetery .I want to see Max. I want to dig up his coffin.”At four o’clock in the morning Max’s parent and a neighbor hurried to thecemetery .They dug up Max’s coffin and opened it . There was Max .He looked dead. But he wasn’t lying on his back . He was lying on his side.Max’s father carried Max home . Then he ran to get the doctor .For an hour the doctor rubbed whisky on Max’s lips and warmed his body. Then Max opened his eyes .Max was alive ! A week later he was playing with his friends.Max Hoffman died—really died—in the United State in 1953. He was 93 year old .

I read with great interest your interpretation of dreams of teeth falling out .It is the same interpretation that many others use as well : needing to be heard etc. I myself had this dream repeatedly and was dying to know what it meant , as is was always confusing and disturbing . However , I was always unsatisfied with the “ needing to be heard ” thing.Your might note that many people who have this dream are feeling worried , depressed or frightened as their teeth are falling out painlessly .Sometime they even try to keep the teeth from falling out . Finally I came up with a different interpretation , which fitted me much better . In fact , I’ve had fewer dreams of this so rt now .So I thought you might be interested .For me , the dream means I am talking TOO MUCH . It means thoughtlessness ,telling secrets , gossiping unwisely . And it’s my subconscious warning me .Now ,if I have this dream ,I know I have been unwise with my big mouth ! Trying to cram the teeth back in , or stop them falling out ,or trying to find a dentist , actually means trying to stop the words or gossip from coming out , and the feelings of depression are reflecting the regret of being too revealing –usuallyto an enemy . I am much more aware of this now and not such a big mouth ! Maybe you could add to your interpretation,Best,KatieListening IVKeysExercise 1DCBDExercise 2TFTFFTScriptSleep is something we generally associate with living creatures. Of course, it is true that a lot of animals sleep, but zoologists are not certain that primitive forms of animals life, like worms and snails, even really sleep. On the other hang, animals such as bears sleep for 4 or 5 months every year.The amount of sleep a human being needs depends on age, the individual and possibly race. .For example, doctors think that pre-school children need between 10 and12 hours a night; school children between 9 and 11 hours, and adults between 7and9 hours. There are exceptional cases of old people who sleep only between 2 and 3 hours a day and continue to be active and healthy. The sleep requirements of different races also appear to be different. Japanese people, for example, sleep, sleep fewer hours than Europeans.It is not known for certain if certain if mental activity (apart from dreaming) occurs when a person is asleep. However, it is certainly true that some people can wake up at a specific, pre-determined time. There are also stories about mathematicians who solve difficult problems during sleep, because their subconscious minds continue working on the problem.Some types of unpleasant dreams (or ‘‘nightmares’’)are quite common, the dreams is taking a test, but is not properly prepared. he is falling from a tree ,or an animal or thing is chasing him. Some people say these last two occur because man’s ancestors lived in trees and were in constant danger from wild animals.。

Some people will always be interested in collecting stamps.参考答案:9) D 10) D 11) C听⼒⽂本:Stamp collecting has long been a hobby enjoyed by people around the world. Collecting stamps from different countries and from different times in history is a wonderful way to travel around the world and through time without ever leaving your living room. Unfortunately, this pastime is slowly becoming less popular and might disappear altogether in the near future. As it is, a majority of the people who still collect stamps are old people who have done it their entire lives. Young people are increasingly attracted to other seemingly more exciting hobbies. It isn't entirely their fault that young people aren't drawn to stamp collecting. In this era of instant communication over the Internet and by e-mail, hand written letters are quickly becoming antiques. Without actual letters and envelopes sent through the mail, there is no need for stamps. Without stamps, there is nothing to collect. There will always be people who collect old stamps. Broadly speaking, though, the development of instant communication results in fewer and fewer people collecting stamps in the future. This is indeed unfortunate as fewer people will appreciate the ability to travel around the world so easily.Q9: Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?Q10: According to the passage, what is the outlook for the stamp collecting hobby?Q11: With which of the following statements might the speaker disagree?∧收起答案短篇新闻3题Directions:Listen to a news report and choose the best answer to each question you hear.12)A. 9 years.B. 12 years.C. 10 years.D. 11 years.13)A.

Because he was inspired by a TED talk to take time off.14)A. He tended to live his life he wanted.B. He was born in Norway.C. He had found the job as a teacher before quitting his job.D. He had been with his kids for five years.参考答案:12) C 13) D 14) A听⼒⽂本:When Winston Chen told his friends that he had quit his job as chief technology officer at a software company to move to a small island in Arctic Norway with his family for a year, few people called him crazy.Instead, most people simply replied, "I wish I had the guts to do that."While many people dream of taking time off mid-career, few actually do it. But the number of people taking lengthy sabbaticals later in life is increasing, according to experts. That's in part due to companies becoming more open to the idea and the higher rate at which people are changing jobs. And depending on how you play your cards, you can return with a better job than when you left.For Chen, who had been with the same company for a decade when he quit in 2011, it was time for a change, he said. His original plan was to find a new job, but the idea of taking time off –inspired by a TED talk –got him seriously thinking about a sabbatical. At first, he said he was concerned that time away from the industry might hurt his career."That's the main reason that keeps people from doing this, and I was no different," he said in an email. "But you have to create the urgency for living the life you want."After quitting, Chen did look for another job – until a friend mentioned that a small island in Arctic Norway was looking for a teacher. Chen's wife, who was born in Norway, wanted to go back to work after being at home with their kids for five years. "She called and basically got the job," said Chen. "So, very quickly, we decided that was it."Q12: How long had Winston Chen worked at a software company before he quit in 2011?Q13: Why did Winston Chen have the guts to quit his job?Q14: What do we learn from Winston Chen?∧收起答案。

Unit 5 Urban pulse5-2 SharingPractice①The podcast is mainly about whether people enjoy city life the good things about living in a city and the main problems in cities.② 1)cities 2)mix of people 3)peace and quiet③D-E-A-C-F-B④A-A-B-B-A⑤ 1)horribly 2)get round 3)on the go 4)take time out5)missing out 6)green transport 7)crime 8)committing crimes⑦1. I come from a small town in the mountain areas in the east of China. It has beautiful scenery and a pleasant climate neither too cold nor too hot. It is a quiet town with a pretty relaxing lifestyle. The residents there are kind friendly and helpful. I like the pleasant atmosphere of living in such a small town.2. Since my hometown is in the mountains and is far from big cities the bus service there is poor and infrequent. So it is inconvenient to go shopping especially when we want to buy large household items. It is also difficult for children to receive a good education locally. So many children have to live in boarding schools. A more serious problem is that it is inconvenient to go to hospital. When it is an emergency case it can be a matter of life and death.3. Generally speaking I like living in a big city. There is greater convenience diversity and choice living in a big city. There are a lot of things to see and do and I'll never feel bored. And there are also many opportunities for me in big cities. But more opportunities also mean more challenges. So I have to be quite competitive to survive in a big city.5-3 ListeningUse the skills①1. In my opinion the important criteria for a good city are safety affordable housing sound education and health care system pleasant climate and environment abundant leisure and cultural facilities good public services and convenient transportation.2. In my opinion Weihai is the best city for living in China. Located in the east of Shandong Province Weihai is surrounded by the Yellow Sea in the north east and south. Weihai is a coastal garden city with a pleasant climate clean air beautiful natural scenery blue sea soft sand clean and safe streets as well as small European style residential buildings. It is a modern up-to-date city that still maintains the charm and atmosphere of a small town.②1)shopping 2)good nightlife 3)safe 4)cheap 5)terrible6)restaurants 7)fantastic 8)fast 9)green 10)crowded 11)friendly 12)atmosphere 13)clean 14)safe 15)see16)do 17)beautiful 18)perfect 19)culture 20)too muchThink and speak1. I like Sydney mainly because of its beautiful harbor beaches and buildings. I also like its warm weather and café culture.2. The city I choose is Shanghai. I think the positive things about Shanghai include great employment options better education for children excellent health care excellent cultural and recreational facilities convenient public transportation and colorful nightlife. The negative things include high living expenses and great pressure.5-4 ViewingGet a clue1. The Zimmers are a British rock band. The band is very different from other rock groups in that it is the world's oldest rock band with the members' combined age exceeding 3000.2. They recorded a version of The Who's song "My Generation" in the famous Abbey Road Studios which earned them great popularity on YouTube and then got invited to appear on America's biggest chat show in Hollywood.View it1)a combined age 2)forgotten 3) stuck indoors 4) felt right 5) 16 times / sixteen times6) closure 7) meet 8) 40 9) available online 10)Two million / 2 millionThink and speak1. The Zimmers have completely changed these old people's lives. They used to feel lonely forgotten and cast aside by society. But The Zimmers offered them an excellent opportunity to make friends to come alive and most important of all to be heard again by society.2. The greatest problem that Chinese elderly people face is who will take care of them when they are in need of help and care.Now more and more Chinese families belong to the 4-2-1 type. This means one couple will take care of four old people. Actually now many young people have no time to take care of their parents at home. Some people complain that when they ask for leave to take care of their sick parents the company will later find it as an excuse to lay them off. So taking care of the old is no longer simply a moralissue and in many cases it is a social issue caused by many other practical problems in society.3. The new law requires the adult children of parents over 60 to visit their parents frequently and make sure that their parents' daily financial and spiritual needs are met. This law is issued in response to the increasing difficulty in caring for the aging population in China. I think the intention of the new law is good; however I think it will do little to change the status quo. First since some details of the law are vague I doubt the practicality and enforceability of it. For example according to the new law adult children are prohibited from overlooking or neglecting the elderly but it does not specify how much time adult children should spend with their elderly parents and how frequently adult children should visit their elderly parents. Also there is no clarification of the penalties for people who break the new law. So I think it is hard or even infeasible to enforce the law. Second I think the law will put too much pressure on those people who migrate away from home in search of work or independence especially those low-income migrant workers who work thousands of miles away from home and can't afford frequent visits to their parents. Third the new law stipulates that parents can sue their adult children for neglecting them and it is likely that such a law may end up causing more family conflicts and even resentment toward elderly parents. After all caring for the elderly is a question of ethics not something that should be governed by legislation.If legislation isn't the answer to the problem of caring for the elderly I think the establishment of more day-care centers for old people might help improve old people's lives in China. Adult children can arrange for their parents to attend day-care centers for the elderly where they will have the chance to interact with other people and engage in activities that may stimulate their social and cognitive skills. And adult children can also hire aides who can not only help older people perform daily tasks but also serve as companions for them as well.5-6 Role-playing①1) a hotel 2) The air conditioning 3) send someone up 4) a restaurant 5) 20 minutes6) the service charge 7) busy time 8) a train station 9) an hour10) wrong type of snow②A-A-B-B-A-B5-7 PresentingOrganize ideasstep 1:Cities Pros ConsA • High household income(Rank: 3)• Low crime rate (Rank: 5)• Good public transportation(Rank: 2)• Good cultural atmosphere(Rank: 3)• High average house price (Rank: 2)• High unemployment rate (Rank: 2)• Fewer doctors per 1000 people (Rank:5)• Poor air quality (Rank: 1)B • Reasonable average ho useprice (Rank: 3)• Comparatively lower crimerate (Rank:3)• Good public transportation(Rank: 1)• Good cultural atmosphere(Rank: 2)• Low household income (Rank: 5)• High unemployment rate (Rank: 1)• Fewer doctors per 1000 people (Rank:4)• Poor air quality (Rank: 2)C • Reasonable populationgrowth rate (Rank: 4)• Good air quality (Rank: 5)• Pretty good publicransportation (Rank: 4)• Good cultural atmosphere(Rank: 1)• Relatively lower household income(Rank: 4)• High average house price (Rank: 1)• Higher unemployment rate (Rank: 3)• Higher crime rate (Rank:2)• Fewer doctors per 1000 people (Rank:3)D • High household income(Rank: 1)• Lower average house price(Rank: 4)• Lower unemployment rate(Rank: 4)• Lower crime rate (Rank:4)• More doctors per 1000 people(Rank: 1)• Good air quality (Rank: 4)• Pretty good publictransportation (Rank: 3)• Higher population growth rate (maycreate problems) (Rank: 2)• Relatively poor cultural atmosphere(Rank: 4)E • High househo ld income(Rank: 2)• High crime rate (Rank:1)• Fewer doctors per 1000 people (Rank:• Lower average house price (Rank: 5)• Low unemployment rate (Rank: 5)• Less rain (Rank 5)• Good air quality (Rank: 3)2)• Higher population growth rate (may create problems) (Rank: 1)• Poorer public transportation (Rank: 5)• Poorer cultural atmosphere (Rank: 5)step 3:Reference:The city I recommend is D.Reasons for my recommendation• high household income;• low living expenses (lower house prices);• better employment opportunities (lower unemployment rate);• better security (lower crime rate);• better health care (more doctors per 1000 people);• good air quality (lower PM2.5);• pretty good public transportation (higher percentage of the workforce utilizi ng public transport).step 4:Sample presentation will be given in the "Present ideas" section. Present ideasThe city our group recommends is D.We think one of the most important things for a city to be a good place for living is the balance between income levels and costs of living. The average household income in D is $100000 which tops the list of the five cities in the table while its average house price an important index of living cost is $340000 which only ranks fourth in the list. High income and low living costs make D stand out from the rest of the candidate cities.Another factor which allows D to distinguish itself from other candidate cities is the health care its dwellers enjoy. D offers 6.5 doctors per 1000 people which is the highest of the five cities.The relatively low unemployment rate and low crime rate also make D very attractive to potential immigrants. Its high income and low living costs may contribute to its low unemployment rate and low crime rate.D also offers good and convenient public transportation which can be easily seen from the fact that 21.2% of the workforce use public transport. This figure partly explains why D is not as seriously polluted as some big cities like London or New York.The climate in D may not be as pleasant as that of some European cities. It is cold and humid. D's winter is cold and snowy but surprisingly appealing. With an average of 153 days below 0°C D is an ideal place for skiing and ice-skating.To sum up D has all the offerings of a large city but has managed to maintain the accessibility atmosphere and charm of a mid-sized friendly town with a strong sense of community. So choose D you won't regret.5-8 More practice in listeningConversations①A-A-B-A-D②A-A-D-BPassages①B-D-C-D②1)join up 2)reaction 3)makes increasing sense 4)sustainable5)aims6)monitored 7)access to 8)experimenting with 9)eye-catching 10)commutingNews①D-B②B-C-A5-10 Unit test1)B 2)C 3)D 4)A 5)B 6)B 7)C 8)D 9)A 10)C11)D 12)C 13)B 14)D 15)D16) widespread 17) property 18) permeates 19) robbed20) victim21) argue about 22) contribute to 23) population 24) remains unsolved 25) proposed。

现代大学英语听力2答案Unit 5
Unit 5Task 1【答案】A.1) People’s ideas on permanent education.2) One is an ordinary “man in the street”. The other is an educational psychologist.3) The first person thinks this idea of permanent education is crazy. He can’t understand peoplewho want to spend all their lives in school. The second person thinks the idea of permanent education is practical because people are never really too old to go on learning.B.1) was; hated; stand; got out 2) all their lives 3) certain limits; age limits【原文】Two people are interviewed about their ideas on education. One is an ordinary "man in the street"; the other is an educational psychologist.The man in the street:When I was at school, I hated it. I couldn't stand it. I wasn't happy until I got out. I think this idea of permanent education is crazy. I know some people go back to school when they're older, go to language classes at the local "tech" and all that, but I can't understand people who want to spend all their lives in school.The educational psychologist:The idea of permanent education is practical because we're never really too old to go on learning. Of course, there are certain limits, but they aren't age limits. For example, let's say a man past sixty tries to learn how to play football. It's foolish for him to do that, but only because his body is too old, not his mind!Task 2【答案】B.1) He stayed there for a year.2) He has faint, but very pleasant memories of it. He had fun and played games---including story-telling, drawing, singing and dancing.3) He began t have more formal lessons and even worry about exams.4) The exam was called the “Eleven Plus”. Students took the exam to see what kind of secondary school they would get into.【原文】John is talking to Martin about his primary schooling.Martin: Did you go to a state primary school?John: Yes, I did. I went to a nursery school first, at the age of four, but this was purely voluntary.There was a good kindergarten in our neighbourhood so my parents decided to send methere for a year.Martin: Can you still remember it?John: Yes, I have faint, but very pleasant memories of it. It was a delightful place, full of fun and games. As in most nursery schools, work —if you can call it that —consisted of storytelling, drawing, singing and dancing.Martin: You probably don't remember but you must have missed it when you left — you know, when you went to the Infants' School at the age of five.John: I suppose I must have, but you know, right up to the age of seven, school life was very pleasant. It was only later in the Junior School that we began to have more formal lessons and even worry about exams.Martin: Really? Did you have to do exams at that age?John: Yes, we used to then. We had to take an exam at the age of eleven called the "Eleven Plus"to see what kind of Secondary school we would get into. But this exam has disappeared nowadays.Task 3【答案】A.1) compulsory; the ages of 5 and 16; state-funded; independent2) available; at a nursery school; in the nursery class at a primary school3) preparatory; primary; aged 5 to 134) enter the state education system; at the age of 5; secondary school5) 7, 11, 13 or 16; gain admission at 11 or 13; the Common Entrance Examination6) one further year; Advanced Supplementary Examinations; Advanced Level Examinations7) classroom; laboratory; work independently; undertake research for projects8) vocational; conventional9) secondary education; with A-levels; further; higherB.1) GCSE stand for the General Certificate of Secondary Education. It is normally take at the age of sixteen.2) Students usually study form 8 to 12 subjects over two years.3) Some subjects take account of the work students do throughout the year, while others are assessed entirely by examination.【原文】Education in the United Kingdom is compulsory for everyone between the ages of five and sixteen, and is provided by two kinds of schools: state-funded schools and independent (fee-charging) schools.Children educationPre-school or pre-preparatory education: pre-school education is available in both the independent and the state systems. Many children start their education at the age of three or four at a nursery school or in the nursery class at a primary school.Preparatory education: in the independent system, preparatory (or primary) education is available for children aged 5 to 13.Primary education: most children in the United Kingdom enter the state education systemwhen they go to primary school at the age of five and generally move to secondary school or college at the age of 11.Secondary education (including the General Certificate of Secondary Education and equivalents)Most pupils enter independent boarding schools at the age of 7, 11, 13 or 16. To gain admission at 11 or 13, some pupils sit an exam called the Common Entrance Examination. At 16, they enter the school to study in its sixth form (for A-levels and equivalent qualifications).All UK secondary schools, both state and independent, teach pupils at least until the age of sixteen and prepare them for the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) or equivalent qualifications. Significant numbers of international students enter the UK secondary education system when they are either eleven or thirteen. Many attend independent boarding schools.GCSEs in vocational subjects are normally taken at the age of 16. Following these, students can do one further year of academic study before taking Advanced Supplementary examinations (AS-levels).Alternatively, there are career-based qualifications, such as General National Vocational Qualifications (GNVQs) or vocational A-levels, which can be taken after one or two years of study. All these courses give access to university or further study.Students usually study from 8 to 12 GCSE subjects over two years. Most students study a core of statutory subjects and choose additional subjects from a list.On any GCSE course, you receive formal tuition in the classroom and laboratory but are also encouraged to work independently and undertake research for projects, often outside school hours. Educational visits, either on your own or as part of a small group, are often part of the timetable. Some subjects take account of the work you do throughout the year, while others are assessed entirely by examination. Examinations are independently marked and graded. GCSE grades range from A (the highest) to G.New GCSEs in vocational subjects are a career-based version of the GCSE. Eight subjects are available: Art and Design, Business, Engineering, Health and Social Care, Information and Communications Technology (ICT), Leisure and Tourism, Manufacturing, and Science. One vocational GCSE is equivalent to two conventional GCSEs. As with other GCSEs, grades range from A (the highest) to G.Sixth-formers usually finish their secondary education at the age of eighteen with A-levels or equivalent qualifications, then go on to study at either further or higher education level.Task 4【答案】B.1) F 2) F【原文】Kate: Yes, it's difficult to teach children these days, when many of them know they won't get jobs.It's hard to control the class if you can't punish them. I often hit them with a ruler. Ofcourse, in my part of Scotland we're allowed to hit them, and I think it's necessary —some children need discipline.Interviewer: What do you think, Rolf? I know you feel very strongly about corporal punishment.Rolf: I don't agree with Kate. I know it's difficult to be a teacher, but I think it always has been. But you don't have to use violence. It's impossible to teach students aboutnon-violence and being good citizens when you are violent yourself.Interviewer: What do the Welsh think, Jane? Rolf thinks corporal punishment is wrong.Jane: Yes, I think so too.Interviewer: And Raoul?Raoul: Well, I think it's sometimes necessary. When one child constantly disobeys, you have to beat him, or else send him away — maybe to a special school. It's impossible toteach the rest of the class if you have one student who constantly misbehaves. It's badfor the others.Interviewer: Did anyone beat you when you were at school?Raoul: Well...Task 5【答案】A.1) Because the television program by that name can now be seen in many parts of the world.2) This program is very popular among children. Some educators object to certain elements in the program. Parents praise it highly. Many teachers also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems arise when first graders who have learned from “Sesame Street” are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.3) In order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.4)1. The reasons may include the educational theories of its creators, the support by bothgovernment and private businesses, and the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks2. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mothers watch “Sesame Street”along with theirchildren. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on “Sesame Street”.3. The best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.B.1) six million; regularly; half; economic; racial; geographical2) fifty; Spanish; Portuguese; German; one hundred thousand; English; every two weeks3) songs; stories; jokes; pictures; numbers; letters; human relationships【原文】Sesame Street" has been called "the longest street in the world. That is because the television program by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of America’s exports soon after it went on the air in New York in 1969.In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more than half the nation’s pre-school children, from every kind of economic, racial, and geographical group.Although some educators object to certain elements in the program, parents praise it highly. Many teachers consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems arise when first graders who have learned from “Sesame Street” are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.Tests have shown that children from all racial, geographical, and economic backgrounds have benefited from watching "Sesame Street". Those who watch it five times a week learn more than the occasional viewers. In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.In its American form "Sesame Street" is shown in nearly fifty countries. Three foreign shows based on "Sesame Street" have also appeared in Spanish, Portuguese, and German. Viewers of the show in Japan buy one hundred thousand booklets with translations of the English sound track every two weeks.The program uses songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relations. But there are some differences. For example, the Spanish program, produced in Mexico City, devotes more time to teaching whole words than to teaching separate letters.Why has "Sesame Street" been so much more successful than other children's shows? Many reasons have been suggested. People mention the educational theories of its creators, the support by the government and private businesses, and the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mothers watch "Sesame Street" along with their children. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on "Sesame Street". But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.Task 6【答案】A.1) It is to have all public schools connected to the Internet computer system and have computersavailable for all students.2) Its web site provides information about the school, the teacher and their mail addresses. It alsolists student events and organizations.3) They learn numbers and letters. They also learn how to use the computers they will need later intheir education.B.1) 1994; 35%; Last year; 89%2) universities; colleges; urge; require【原文】One of the goals of American education officials is to have all public schools connected to the Internet computer system and have computers for all students. Government studies show that in 1994 only 35 percent of American public schools were connected to the Internet. Last year, that number reached 89 percent.Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University is a large university in the southern state of Virginia. Officials at Virginia Tech say computers are very important to a student's education. All students at Virginia Tech have been required to have a computer since 1998.Each student's living area at Virginia Tech has the necessary wires to link a computer to the Internet. The students can send and receive electronic mail, use the World Wide Web part of the Internet and link with other universities, all without leaving their rooms. They can also use their computers to send electronic copies of their school work to their teachers. And they can search for books in the school's huge library.Most major American universities and colleges strongly urge or require new students to have a computer. Most colleges and universities also have large rooms where students can use computers for classwork.American high schools also have computers. Many have their own areas on the World Wide Web. If you have a computer you can learn about Fremont Union High School in Sunnyvale, California, for example. Its web site provides information about the school, the teachers and their electronic mail addresses. It also lists student events and organizations.Young children also use computers in school. Smoketree Elementary School, in Lake Havasu, Arizona is a good example. The school also has a World Wide Web site. It tells about the school and the teachers and has an area for young children. These young children use computers in school to learn numbers and letters. They also learn how to use the computers they will need later in their education.Task 7【答案】A.I. spoken; writtenA. saying poetry aloud; giving speechesB. advanced degrees; field of study; custom; candidates; doctor’s degreeII. writtenA. nineteenthB. the great increase in population; the development of modern industryC.1. objective; personal opinions; memory of facts and details; range of knowledge; a fairer chance; easier; quicker; learning2. essay; ling answers; broad general questions; the element of luck; put facts together into a meaningful whole; really knowing much about the subject; have trouble expressing their ideas in essay form; examiner’s feelings at the time of reading the answer.III.unsatisfactory; along withB.b【原文】In ancient time the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome , testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor's degree.Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same question, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines. There is nothing very human about the examination process.Two types of tests are commonly used in modern schools. The first type sometimes called an “objective” test. It is intended to deal with facts., not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.For testing a student's memory of facts and details, the objective test has advantages. It can be scored very quickly by the teacher or even by a machine. In a short time the teacher can find out a great deal about the student's range of knowledge.For testing some kinds of learning, however, such a test is not very satisfactory. A lucky student may guess the correct answer without really knowing the material. For a clearer picture of what the students knows, most teachers use another kind of examination in addition to objective tests. They use “essay”tests, which require students to write long answer to broad general questions.One advantage of the essay test is that it reduces the element of luck. The student cannot get a high score just by making a lucky guess. Another advantage is that it shows the examiner more about the student’s ability to put facts together into a meaningful whole. It should show how deeply he has thought about the subject. Sometimes, though, essay tests have disadvantages, too. Some students are able to write rather good answers without really knowing much about the subject, while other students who actually know the material have trouble expressing their ideas in the essay form.Besides, on an essay test the student's score may depend upon the examiner's feelings at the time of reading the answer. If he is feeling tired or bored, the student may receive a lower score than he should. Another examiner reading the same answer might give it a much higher mark. From this standpoint the objective test gives each student a fairer chance, and of course it is easier and quicker to score.Most teachers and students would probably agree that examinations are unsatisfactory. Whether an objective test or an essay test is used, problems arise. When some objective questions are used along with some essay questions, however, a fairly clear picture of the student'sknowledge can usually be obtained.Task 8Americans know that higher education is the key to the growth they need to lift their country, and today that is more true than ever. Just listen to these facts. Over half the new jobs created in the last three years have been managerial and professional jobs. The new jobs require a higher level of skills.Fifteen years ago the typical worker with a college degree made 38 percent more than a worker with a high school diploma. Today that figure is 73 percent more. Two years of college means a 20 percent increase annual earnings. People who finish two years of college earn a quarter of a million dollars more tan their high school counterparts over a lifetime.。

Let’s TalkAn Intelligent DogA black dog walked into a butcher’s shop with a five-dollar bill in his mouth. He spent several minutes looking at the meat on display. He finally fixed his eyes on the lamb chops and barked, showing that he wanted to buy some of them. The butcher, thinking the dog wouldn’t know the difference, picked out the worst chops. The dog barked angrily and continued to bark until the butcher selected the finest chops. After the butcher took the money from the dog’s mouth, the dog picked up the chops and left the shop.The butcher was deeply impressed and decided that he would like to own a clever dog like that. He closed up shop and followed the dog to see where it went. The dog entered an apartment house, climbed to the third floor, and began to scratch on the door. With that, the door opened and an angry man started yelling at the dog. As he did so, the butcher stepped forward to ask the man to stop. “What are you doing?”That’s the smartest animal I’ve ever seen! Surely it doesn’t deserve this kind of treatment.”The butcher then went on to explain how the dog had bought the best lamb chops in the shop. The man looked at the butcher from the corner of his eye and said, “I don’t think he’s so intelligent. You see, this is third time this week he’sVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: A Birthday PresentMary: David, how did your mom like the dog you gave her for a birthday gift? David: Oh, Mary, she was delighted. It licked her hand and wagged its tail and she was hooked.Mary: What did she call it?David: She’s calling it “Brian”, after a friend of hers.Mary: Your mom always did have a sense of humor. I read somewhere that dogs can become very close to their owners.David: I’ve heard that. I saw an interview on TV with a man who had epileptic attacks, and his dog would warn him before he would have an attack.Mary: Really? I wonder how they can do that1David: It ahs something to do with the dog’s sense of smell. It’s very keen.Mary: Do you think Brian will be able to foretell when your mom is going to roast a chicken?After David gave his mom a dog as a birthday present, she was very pleased, for the dog licked her hand and wagged its tail. She called it Brian after one of her friends. Mary read an article which says that dogs can be faithful to their owners/masters. David agreed, for he saw a TV interview which introduced a dog that could warn its master of an epileptic attack. He explained that this ability of the dog’s has something to do with its keen sense of smell. Jokingly, Mary said she wounded whether the dog Brian can foretell/predict when David’s mom is going to roast a chicken.Task 2: A sudden change in the parrot’s attitudeA young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrt had a bad attitude and an even worst vocabulary .Every word out of this bird’s mouth was rude .John tried method to change the bird’s attitude by constantly saying polite words, playing soft music ,and anything he could think of to set a good example. Nothing John got fed up and he yelled at the parrot .And the bird yelled back .John shook the parrot ,and the bird got angrier and ruder .Finally ,in a moment of desperation ,John put the bird in the refrigerator freezer .For a few minutes,John put the bird scream and kick.

Listening to natural English: listening to lectures
Good lecturers normally give an outline of what they will talk about at the beginning of the lecture and break their lecture into sections, each dealing with a sub-topic of the overall theme. They often use devices to signal that a new topic is about to be covered eg If we move on to … or Next I will look at … These signals will help us follow the lecture and organize our notes.
