Study the model given below. Then read the next two paragraphs and show how coherence and unity is improved by the use, of transitional devices.Model: But this is only one aspect of the problem. Another, no less essential, is the wider gap between generations since the rate of social development has speeded up. The tastes and habits of young people today differ markedly from those of the young people of the thirties, let alone of the twenties. Still influenced by the tastes and habits of their own youth, the "fathers" are inclined to think these habits and tastes are absolutes and to deny their children the right to independent creativity which they demanded from their own parents. Hence the artificial conflicts, in which a dance or the width of trousers is elevated to the dignity of crucial issues. The writer uses the following transitional devices:1) Transitional words and expressionsbut another still hence2) Pronoun referencethose their these they3) Repetition of important wordstastes and habits young people1. And since we (teenagers) are so new, many people have some very wrong ideas about us. For instance, the newspapers are always carrying advice-columns telling our mothers how to handle us, their "bewildered maladjusted offspring, " and the movies portray us as half-witted bops (hoodlums-ed. ); and in the current best sellers, authors recall their own confused, unhappy youth. On the other hand, speakers tell us that these teen-years are the happiest and freest of our lives, or hand us the "leaders of tomorrow, forge on the future" line. The general opinion is that teen-agers are either car-stealing, dope-taking delinquents, or immature, weepy adolescents with nothing on our minds but boys (or girls as the case may be ). Most adults have one or two attitudes toward the handling of teens--some say that only a sound beating will keep us in line; others treat us as mentally unbalanced creatures on the brink of insanity, who must be pampered and shielded at any cost.2. As of today, I am fed up with the food served in the campus dining hall. My disenchantment started in September---the day I bit into a hamburger to find myself staring at a long strand of grey hair that trailed out of the meat, through the mayonnaise, and over the edge of the bun. After that, I was not much surprised by the little things I came across in October and November: bugs in the salad and bobby pin in the meatloaf, for example. Then in December the food was worse--and a little dirtier. For Christmas dinner, for in- stance, the cook gave me a thin slice of rolled turkey, straight out of the can, and dished up a cock-roach in my pudding. Even that was excusable (nobody is perfect), but what happened today is not" I had already eaten most of my clam chowder before I found it, at the bottom of the bowl, nestled among the diced potatoes and the chopped onions: one band-aid, slightly used.XIII. Topics for oral work:1. In your opinion, what makes or spoils a good conversation?2. Is spoken English different from written English? In what ways are they different?XIV. Write a short composition describing some of the peculiarities of spoken EnglishPub Talk and the King's English 课后练习题答案Ⅰ .1. Carlyle : Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881), English essayist and historian born at Ecclefechan,a village of the Scotch lowlands. After graduating from the University of Edinburgh, he rejected the ministry, for which he had been intended, and determined to he a writer of hooks. In 1826 he married Jane Welsh, a well-informed and ambitious woman who did much to further his career. They moved to Jane' s farm at Craigenputtoeh where they lived for 6 years (1828-1834 ). During this time he produced Sartor Resartus (1833-1834), a book in which he first developed his char- acteristic style and thought. This book is a veiled sardonic attack upon the shams and pretences of society, upon hollow rank, hollow officialism, hollow custom, out of which life and usefulness have departed. In 1837 he published The French Revolution, a poetic rendering and not a factual account of the great event in history. Besides these two masterpieces, he wrote Chartism (1840), On Heroes, hero Worship, and the Heroic in History (I841), Past and Present (1843) and others. "Carlylese", a peculiar style of his own, was a compound of biblical phrases, col loquialisms, Teutonic twists, and his own coinings, arranged in unexpected sequences. One of the most important social critics of his day, Carlyle influenced many men of the younger generation, among them were Mathew Arnold and Ruskin.2. Lamb : Charles Lamb (1775-1834), English essayist, was born in London and brought up within the precincts of the ancient law courts, his father being a servant to an advocate of the inner Temple. He went to school at Christ's Hospital, where he had for a classmate Coleridge, his life-long friend. At seventeen, he became a clerk in the India House and here he worked for 33 years until he was re-tired on a pension. His devotion to his sister Mary, upon whom rested an hereditary taint of insanity, has done al-most as much as the sweetness and gentle humor of his writings to endear his name. They collaborated on several books for children, publishing in 1867 their famous Tales from Shakespeare. His dramatic essays, Specimens of English Dramatic Poets (1808), established his reputation as a critic and did much in reviving the popularity of Eliza-be then drama. The Essays of Ella, published at intervals in London Magazine, were gathered together and republished in two series, the first in 1823, the second ten years later. They established Lamb in the title which he still holds, that of the most delightful of English essayists.Ⅱ.1.A good conversation does not really start from anywhere, and no one has any idea where it will go. A good conversation is not for making a point. Argument may often be a part of it, but the purpose of the argument is not to convince. When people become serious and talk as if they have something very important to say, when they argue to convince or to win their point, the conversation is spoilt.2. The writer likes bar conversation very much because he has spent a lot of time in pubs and is used to this kind of conversation. Bar friends are companions, not intimates. They are friends but not intimate enough to be curious about each other's private life and thoughts.3. No. Conversation does not need a focus. But when a focal subject appears in the natural flow of conversation, the conversation becomes vivid, lively and more interesting.4. The people talked about Australia because the speaker who introduced the subject mentioned incidentally that it was an Australian who had given her such a definition of "the King's English. " When the people talked about the resistance in the lower classes to any attempt by an upper class to lay down rules for "English as it should be spoken", the conversation moved to Norman England because at that time a language barrier existed between the Saxon peasants and the Norman conquerors.5. The Saxon peasants and their Norman conquerors used different words for the same thing. For examples see paragraph 9.6. The writer seems to be in favor of bilingual education. He is against any form of cultural barrier or the cultural humiliation of any section or group of people.7. The term "the Queen's English" was used in 1953 by Nash because at that time the reigning monarch was a queen, Elizabeth I. The term "the King's English" is the more common form because the ruling monarch is generally a king. Those who are not very particular may use the term "the King's English", even when the ruling monarch is a queen. In 1602, Dekker used the term "the King's English", although the reigning monarch was still Queen Elizabeth.8．“The King’s English” was regarded as a form 0f racial discrimination during the Norman rule in England about 1154—1399．9．The writer thinks “the King’s English” is a class representation of reality．1t is worth trying to speak “the King’s English”，but it should not be 1aid down as an edict，and made immune to change from below．The King’s English is a model a rich and instructive one- but it ought not to be an ultimatum．10．During the Norman period，the ruling class spoke Anglo— French while the peasants spoke their native Saxon language．Language bears the stamp of the class that uses it．The King’s English today refers to the language used by the upper，educated class in England．Ⅲ．1．The title of this piece is not well chosen．It misleads the readers into thinking that the writer is going to demonstrate some intrinsic or linguistic relationship between pub talk and the King’s English．Whereas the writer．in reality，is just discoursing on what makes good conversation．The King’s English is connected with “pub talk” when the writer describes the charming conversation he had with some people one evening in a pub on the topic “the King’s English” to illustrate his point that bar conversation in a pub has a charm of its own．2．1n this essay the writer alluded to many historical and literary event such as the Norman conquest，the saloons of 18th century Paris，and the words of many a man of letters．For a short expository essay like this，the allusions used are more than expected and desirable．3．Paragraph 5 is a transition paragraph by means of which the writer passes from a general discourse on good conversation to a particular instance of it．But one feels the change from “pub talk” to “the King's English” a bit too abrupt．4．The simple idiomatic expressions like "to be on the rocks，out of bed on the wrong side，etc．”may be said to go well with the copious literary and historical allusions the writer used for an informal conversational style to Suit the theme of this essay in which the writer tries to defend informal uses of language．5．The writer’s attitude towards “the King’s English” shows that he is a defender of democracy．Ⅳ．1．And conversation is an activity which is found only among human beings. (Animals and birds are not capable of conversation.)2．Conversation is not for persuading others to accept our idea or point of view．3．In fact a person who really enjoys and is skilled at conversation will not argue to win or force others to accept his point of view．4．People who meet each other for a drink in the bar of a pub are not intimate friends for they are not deeply absorbed or engrossed in each other’s lives．5．The conversation could go on without anybody knowing who was right or wrong．6．These animals are called cattle when they are alive and feeding in the fields；but when we sit down at the table to eat．we call their meat beef．7．The new ruling class by using French instead of English made it difficult for the English to accept or absorb the culture of the rulers.8．The English language received proper recognition and was used by the King once more.9．The phrase, the King’s English, has always been used disrespectfully and jokingly by the lower classes. The working people very often make fun of the proper and formal language of the educated people.10．There still exists in the working people, as in the early Saxon peasants, a spirit of opposition to the cultural authority of the ruling class.11．There is always a great danger that we might forget that words are only symbols and take them for things they are supposed to represent. For example, the word “dog” is a symbol representing a kind of animal. We mustn’t regard the word “dog” as being the animal itself.12．Even the most educated and literate people do not use standard, formal English all the time in their conversation.V．See the translation of the text．Ⅵ·1. on the rocks：metaphor，comparing a marriage to a ship wrecked on the rocks2．get out of bed on the wrong side: be in a bad temper for the day (The meaning is perhaps derived from the expression “You got out of bed the wrong way”. It was an ancient superstition that it was unlucky to set the left foot on the ground first on getting out of bed.) 3．on wings：metaphor，comparing conversation to a bird flying and soaring．It means the conversation soon became spirited and exciting．4．turn up one’s nose at：scorn；show scorn for5．into the shoes：metaphor(or more appropriately an idiomatic expression)，think as if one were wearing the shoes of the Saxon peasant，i．e．as if one were a Saxon peasant6 come into one’s own：receive what properly belongs to one，especially acclaim or recognition657．sit up at：(colloquial)become suddenly alert and take notice ofⅦ．1．ignorant指缺乏知识，可以是就整体而言(如an ignorant man)，也可以是就某一具体方面或问题而言(如ignorant of the reason of their quarrel对他们争吵的起因毫无所知)；illiterate意为缺乏文化修养，尤指读写能力的缺乏；uneducated指没有受到正规的、系统的学校教育；unlearned意为学问不富(未必无知)，既可指一无所长，又可指某一方面所知有限，如unlearned in science，意为对科学懂得有限，但对其他学科，如文学、哲学等，倒可能是很精通的。

Lesson 1 Pub Talk and the King’s EnglishI. Paraphrase (P. 15)1. And it is an activity only of humans.(Para1)And conversation is an activity which is found only among human beings.2. Conversation is not for making a point.Conversation is not for persuading others to accept our idea. In a conversation we should not try to establish the force of an idea or argument.3. In fact, the best conversationalists are those who are prepared to lose. In fact those who really enjoy and are skilled at conversation will not argue to win or force others to accept their point of view.4. Bar friends are not deeply involved in each other’s lives.Bar friends are not intimate friends for they are not deeply absorbed in each other’s lives.5. …it could still go ignorantly on.The conversation could go on without anybody knowing who was right or wrong.6. They are cattle in the fields, but we sit down to beef (boeuf). These animals are called cattle when they are alive and feeding in the fields; but when we sit down at the table to eat, we call their meat beef.7. The new ruling class had built a cultural barrier against him by building their French against his own language.The new ruling class by using French instead of English made it difficult for the English to accept or absorb the culture of the rulers.8. …English had come royally into its own.(Para. 13)The English language received proper recognition and was used by the king once more.9. The phrase has always been used a little pejoratively and even facetiously by the lower classes.(Para. 15)The phrase, the King’s English, has always been used disparagingly and jokingly by the lower classes. (或者The working people very often make fun of the proper and formal language of the educated people.)10. The rebellion against a cultural dominance is still there.There still exists in the working people, as in the early Saxon peasants,a spirit of opposition to the cultural authority of the ruling class.11. There is always a great danger, as Carlyle put it, “words will harden into things for us.”There is always a great danger that we might forget that words are only symbols and take them for things they are supposed to represent.II. Explain the italicized words in the following sentences. (P. 15-16) 1. …their marriage may be on the rocks…on the rocks: in a condition of ruin2. …they got out of bed on the wrong side…get out of bed on the wrong side: be in a bad temper for the day3. The conversation was on wings.on wrings: flying /spirited4. …the Norman lords of course turned up their noses at it.turn up one’s nose at: sneer at/scorn for5. …we ought to think ourselves back into the shoes of the Saxon peasnat. into one’s shoes: in another’s position6. …English had come royally into its own.come royally into one’s own: to receive what properly belongs to one 7. …we sit up at the vividness of the phrase…sit up at: become suddenly alert toIII. Translation.A. Translate the following sentences into Chinese.1.

SectionⅢListeningandTalking,ReadingforWriting,AssessingYourProgress&VideoTime一、阅读理解Another man-made wonder of the USA was built long before the nation was established.About 900 years ago,the Ancestral Puebloan people built villages high in the walls of canyons(峡谷) in Colorado,where 600 cliff dwellings are now part of the Mesa Verde National Park.Visitors can stand at the top and look into the dwellings almost hidden in the openings of the rock walls.The Puebloan people cut small steps into the rock,which connected buildings containing hundreds of rooms.The rock walls have protected the buildings from severe weather in the area;therefore,they remain mostly unchanged in the hundreds of years since they were built.Our final man-made wonder is in the northwestern city of Seattle,Washington.The Space Needle was built as the central structure for the 1962 World’s Fair.The 184-metre-tall structure was designed by Edward Carlson,which has a wide base on the ground,with its middle narrow and a large ring-like structure on top.The structure was meant to look like a “flying saucer”,a vehicle that was popular in science fiction space travel stories.The saucer includes an observation area and eating place.The restaurant slowly turns to provide visitors with a 360 degree view of Seattle.The Space Needle was not very costly and was designed and completed in about a year and opened on the first day of the World’s Fair.Today,the Space Needle is the most popular place for visitors to Seattle.And it remains the internationally known symbol of the city.1.What can be talked about before the passage?A.American geography.B.Touring in the USA.C.Other artificial wonders of the USA.D.World natural wonders.2.Which is TRUE about the Space Needle?A.It remains a symbol of the USA.B.Edward Carlson built the structure.C.It has a ring-like structure on top.D.It is a man-made wonder in Colorado.3.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Cultural RelicsB.Artificial Wonders in the USAC.Symbols of CitiesD.Natural Places in the USA二、完形填空HeritageEducationChina’s “Cultural and Natural Heritage Day” falls on the second Saturday of June every year.Many celebrations are 1 on the day.There is no 2 that different kinds of celebrating 3across the country will arouse(唤醒) public awareness of the importance of cultural heritage protection and 4 the young people to love the fine 5 culture of the motherland.China faces a heavy task to protect and rescue its cultural 6 .We need to consider seriously the harm of the lack of awareness about cultural heritage protection. 7 ,heritage education is one of our main approaches(方法).People cannot 8 value cultural heritage if they do not know why it is important or how to protect it.Over the past several years,the protection centre has 9 over a hundred educational seminars(研讨会) to different groups,such as schools,government offices, 10 the general public.Many people have attended the seminars.Typically,each seminar lasts two to three hours and 11 of an informative presentation, 12 by a longer question-and-answer session and discussion.Each attender 13 limited knowledge of cultural heritage considered it to be just the Forbidden City and the Great Wall.People often think that the duty only 14 to thegovernment.So “Cultural and Natural Heritage Day” will be a welcome 15 to educate people on world heritage protection.1.A.forbidden B.suggestedC.madeD.held2.A.need B.doubtC.wonderD.reason3.A.parties B.activitiesC.actionsD.waysrm B.adviseC.persuadeD.inspire5.A.natural B.modernC.traditionalD.ancient6.A.discoveries B.treasuresC.relicsD.wonders7.A.So B.InsteadC.AndD.Thus8.A.properly B.simplyC.carefullyD.entirely9.A.thought B.readC.insistedD.presented10.A.as well as B.as much asC.as good asD.as long as11.A.consists B.becomesC.liesD.forms12.A.recognised B.askedC.answeredD.followed13.A.of B.withC.forD.ates B.standsC.belongsD.calls15.A.possibility B.matterC.opportunityD.chance三、选词创境选择下列词语进行写作,自己创设一个体验语境,形成一个小语段。
