In other words theauthor draws a clear distinction between training and education. The former provides one with skills for a job or career while the latter enables one to become a civilized person by coming into contact with the best minds in history.5) How can a person become civilized according to the text?A person has to enter the past and familiarize himself/herself with both the technical and spiritual resources created by mankind, so that he/she could become civilized and play his/her role in civilization.6) What does the author think of the mission undertaken by the faculties of a university? How can they accomplish this mission?The faculties of liberal arts colleges as well as of specialized schools are entrusted with the mission to put students in close contact with the best human minds in history. They should turn themselves into some sort of storehouse of human experience and try their best to communicate that experience to their students, so that their students will become civilized humans instead of savages who only know how to operate machines or push buttons.2 Text A can be divided into three parts with the paragraph number(s) of each part provided as follows. Write down the main idea of each part.Part Paragraph(s) Main IdeaOne 1–7 In response to the challenge posed by a particular student who merely intends to pursue skills at college and takes no interest in literature, the author draws a distinction between professional training and college education. The former can only provide students with professional skills while the latter enables students to become civilized humans. Hence the importance of liberal arts education at college.Two 8–10 College education must enable students to come into contact with the best minds in history, so that they can become civilized and useful human beings instead of new species of savages who only know how to operate machines or push buttons. Three 11 College education must target at enabling students to become both specialists and civilized humans. All college teachers must make themselves some sort of storehouse of human experience and try their best to communicate that experience to their students.Task Two Reading Between the LinesRead the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicised parts.1) Will there be a book in the house? Will there be a painting a reasonably sensitive man can look at without shuddering? (Para. 5) Do you have a cultivated mind to know what books your family should read? And do you know what kind of paintings you should put up on the wall that would not offend a cultured eye?2) “I hope you make a lot of it,” I told him, “because you’re going to be badly stuck for something to do when you’re not signing checks.” (Para. 7)I hope you will make a lot of money, but I’m sure you’ll be at a loss what to do when you are not signing checks. In other words, you can have a lot of money, but you may not live a meaningful and fulfilling life.3) You are on the way to being new species of mechanized savage, the Pushbutton Neanderthal. (Para. 8)Not getting in touch with what the best human minds have thought, you are going to be uncivilized humans or a new type of savages who can only operate machines by pushing buttons.4) Our colleges inevitably graduate a number of such life forms, but it cannot be said that they went to college; rather, the college went through them — without making contact. (Para. 8)A number of our college graduates have indeed turned out to be “new species of mechanized savage”. This only means that they have not received a college education though they have spent some time there, for they have failed to make contact with the best human minds in history.5) If you are too much in a hurry, or too arrogantly proud of your own limitations, to accept as a gift to your humanity some pieces of the minds ofSophocles, of Aristotle, of Chaucer — and right down the scale and down the ages to Yeats, Einstein, E.B. White, and Ogden Nash —then you may be protected by the laws governing manslaughter, and you may be a voting entity, but you are neither a developed human being nor a useful citizen of a democracy. (Para. 10)Even if you are too busy or feel complacent and, therefore, refuse to come into contact with the best human minds within history, you can still be protected by law and enjoy the right to democratic voting. But you can never be considered as an educated, civilized person; nor can you be accepted by society as a useful citizen in a democratic nation.Checking Your VocabularyWord Detective1 Put down the right word from Text B in the space provided according to the given definition. The first letter of each word is already given.Example:g lobal: of or concerning the whole world1) c ombine: join together; unite2) i mplement: carry out or put into practice3) i llusion: a false idea, esp. about oneself4) i ndispensable: too important or too useful to be without5) i ntelligence: (good) ability to learn, reason, and understand6) e mphasis: special force or attention given to sth. to show that it is particularly important7) r econcile: find agreement between (two ideas, situations, etc., that seem to be in opposition)8) n egotiate: talk with another person or group in order to try to come to an agreement or settle an argument2 Fill in each blank with a word or phrase from Text B. Both the explanation and the number of the paragraph in which the target word or phrase appears are given in brackets.

And in accordance with her will (遗嘱), she was buried in France.(in a way that fulfils or agrees with: Para. 2)4) The details of this programme are dealt with in depth elsewhere in this book.(done with great thoroughness: Para. 5)5) Before this road was built, the only access to the village was by boat. (means or right of using, reaching, or obtaining: Para. 8)6) Don’t worry about your son’s shyness; it’s just a phase he’s going through.(a stage of development: Para. 10)Checking Your Comprehension1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text B.1) On what should the role of education be based in the 21st century?The role of education in the 21st century should be based on the hope for a world that is a better place to live in.2) What are some of the problems in the 21st century that humankind should overcome in order to make the world a better place to live in?We have to overcome the tensions between the global and the local, between tradition and modernity, between long-term and short-term considerations, between the need for competition and the concern for equality of opportunity and between the spiritual and the material so as to make the world a better place to live in.3) In what way can we learn to live together?We can learn to live together by understanding others and their history, traditions and spiritual values, implementing common projects and managing the inevitable conflicts in an intelligent and peaceful way.4) Is the idea of being a multi-subject specialist feasible? Why or why not? No. Because there are so many different types of knowledge; any attempt to know everything would be an illusion.5) What’s the fundamental function of general education?General education provides the passport to lifelong education. It enables people to learn other languages and become familiar with other subjects. Italso arouses people’s interest in learning and thus lays the foundation for lifelong education.6) Besides learning to do a job in industrial economies, what other competence do people need to acquire?People also need to acquire the competence to cope with various situations and cooperate with others in teams.7) How can pupils and students acquire the competence to work in teams? To develop team skills, students should be provided with opportunities to involve themselves in work experience while they are still in education.8) What is the aim of “learning to be”? How can the aim be achieved?The aim of “learning to be” is the c omplete fulfillment of man. All people should receive an education that would equip them to develop an independent, critical way of thinking and exercising judgment.9) As far as education is concerned, what society should we build in the 21st century?We should build a learning society based on the acquisition, renewal and use of knowledge.2 Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say in the following sentences.1) This is precisely the case where education policies are concerned. (Para. 2) The solution to any serious problem involves much consideration, cooperation and negotiation. It is exactly the same with educational policies, which can only be worked out through lots of discussions and negotiations.2) Since knowledge is of multiple nature, any attempt to know everything becomes more and more pointless. (Para. 5)There are so many different kinds of knowledge that it is increasingly meaningless and impossible to train students into specialists in all fields.3) The future of industrial economies hinges on their ability to turn advances in knowledge into innovations that will generate new businesses and new jobs. (Para. 6)The future of industrial economies depends critically on their ability to turn the development in knowledge into creative ideas, new methods or inventions. With creativity, new businesses and new jobs will be created.4) None of the talents which are hidden like buried treasure in every person must be left untapped. (Para. 7)The education one receives, which begins at birth and continues all through one’s life, should help develop and put into full play one’s potentials and talents.Enhance Your Language AwarenessWords in ActionWorking with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

Some holidays, such as New Year's Day, are observed around the world. Some holidays, such as Christmas, Hanukkah, and Ramadan, are celebrated only by members of a certain religion. Still other holidays are unique to specific countries and are celebrated by people who e from those countries, or who are descended from people who came from those countries.St Patrick's Day is a national holiday in Ireland and Northern Ireland, and it is celebrated by Irish people and people of Irish descent in cities and countries around the world. However, in recent years, more and more people who are not Irish have begun to join in the festivities and celebrate the day. It has bee especially popular in Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand. St Patrick is one of the patron saints of Ireland (according to the Catholic Church), and St Patrick's Day falls on March 17 each year.Historically, the day began as an Irish religious holiday but became a national public holiday in 1903. Beginning in the late 20th century, the holiday transformed to be more of a cultural holiday—a day to celebrate Irish customs and culture. In Ireland, the Saint Patrick's Festival has bee a week-long event to showcase Irish culture to the world. The colour green and thethree-leaved shamrock are the symbols most associated with St Patrick and St Patrick's Day. It is therefore very mon to see people wear green clothing on March 17 even if they do not join in a major celebration.St Patrick's Day parades are mon in cities around the world. The largest Irish populations outside of Ireland and Northern Ireland are in the United States. Many major cities, including Boston, New York City, and Philadelphia have held parades for nearly 300 years! It has also bee tradition to dye water green in honour of the day. The Chicago River flows through the middle of that city, and every March 17, the entire river is dyed green! Water fountains in front of the White House in Washington, DC and in Trafalgar Square in London are also typically dyed green.41.

A mini-house-like goal is located at each side of the field. Each team has 12 players, who strive to take over the ball and kick it into the opponent’s g oal. The team that scores more is the winner.With a history of over 2300 years, Cuju originated in the Spring and Autumn Period. The Han Dynasty had witnessed fast development of this sport, which flourished in the Tang and Song dynasties. The Yuan and Ming Dynasties were turning points for Cuju, when it began to decline. In the Qing Dynasty, it basically became a folk sport. Cuju is significant for the present generation of footballers. In the Tang Dynasty, Cuju spread eastward from China to Korea and Japan, and westward to Europe, where it evolved into contemporary British football.Task TwoThe FIFA World Cup，通常简称为世界杯，是一项国际协会足球比赛，由国际足球联合会（FIFA）会员国的男子队参赛。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.A new era is coming with a fundamental change in the way of work, in our industrialized world. Call it what you will: the service economy,the information age, the knowledge society. It all translates to a fundamental change in the way we work. Already we’re partly there. The percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen dramatically in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan (two thirds or more in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the number is on the rise. More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more and more part-time jobs, and a growing number of people who are self-employed. But the breadth of the economic transformation can’t be measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to a radical new way of thinking about the nature of work itself. Long-held notions about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between individuals andemployers — all these arebeing challenged.We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one looking ahead 20 years possibly could have foreseen the ways in which a single invention, the chip (集成块), would transform our world thanks to its applications in personal computers, digital communications and factory robots. Tomorrow’s achievements in biotechnology, artificial intelligence or even some still unimagined technology could produce a similar wave of dramaticchanges like the invention of the microchip. But one thing is certain: information and knowledge will become even more vital, and people who possess it, whether they work in manufacturing or services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth. Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write.So the whole world will be computerized and some people will adapt, others won’t.But hopefully not all work will be equal. Some people argued, that people no longer should be classified as white or blue collar, manager or laborer, but rather as knowledge and service workers. The ability to solve problems by applying information instead of performing routine tasks will be valued above all else. But there will be a future in manufacturing, and the reason for that, is the move away from standardized production and toward more flexible, customized manufacturing. To survive, the workers have to think of new ways to meet the changing demands of customers.31.A characteristic of the information age is that ________.A) the service industry is relying more and more on the female work forceB) manufacturing industries are steadily increasingC) people find it harder and harder to earn a living by working in factoriesD) most of the job opportunities can now be found in the service industry正确答案: D32.One of the great changes brought about by the knowledge society is that ________.A) the difference between the employee and the employer has become insignificantB) people’s traditional concepts about work no longer hold trueC) most people have to take part-time jobsD) people have to change their jobs from time to time正确答案: B33.By referring to computers and other inventions, the author means to say that ________.A) people should be able to respond quickly to the advancement of technologyB) future achievements in technology will bring about inconceivable dramatic changesC) the importance of high technology has been overlookedD) computer science will play a leading role in the future information services正确答案: B34.The future will probably belong to those who ________.A) possess and know how to make use of informationB) give full play to their brain potentialC) involve themselves in service industriesD) cast their minds ahead instead of looking back正确答案: A35.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A) Computers and the Knowledge SocietyB) Service Industries in Modern SocietyC) Features and Implications of the New EraD) Rapid Advancement of Information Technology正确答案: CPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.When global warming finally came, it stuck with a vengeance. In some regions, temperatures rose several degrees in less than a century. Sea levels shot up nearly 400 feet, flooding coastal settlements and forcing people to migrate inland. Deserts spread throughout the world as vegetation shifted drastically in North America, Europe and Asia. After driving many of the animals around them to near extinction, people were forced to abandon their old way of life for a radically new survival strategy that resulted in widespread starvation and disease. Theadaptation was farming: the global-warming crisis that gave rise to it happened more than 10,000 years ago.As environmentalists convene in Rio de Janeiro this week to ponder the global climate of the future, earth scientists are in the midst of a revolution in understanding how climate has changed in the past — and how those changes have transformed human existence. Researchers have begun to piece together an illuminating picture of the powerful geological and astronomical forces that have combined to change the planet’s environment from hot to cold, wet to dry andback again over a time period stretching back hundreds of millionsof year.Most importantly, scientists are beginning to realize that the climatic changes have had a major impact on the evolution of the human species. New research now suggests that climate shifts have played a key role in nearly every significant turning point in human evolution: from the dawn of primates (灵长目动物) some 65 million years ago to human ancestors rising upto walk on two legs, from the huge expansion of the human brain to the rise of agriculture. Indeed, the human history has not been merely touched by global climate change, some scientists argue, it has in some instances been driven by it.The new research has profound implications for the environmental summit in Rio.

All their comings and goings are reported, for, like Royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of Royalty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. They must be constantly shielded from the adoring crowds which idolize them. They are no longer private individuals, but public property. The financial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot be calculated, for their rates of pay are astronomical.And why not? Society has always rewarded its top entertainers lavishly.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice. Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.A new era is coming with a fundamental change in the way of work, in our industrialized world. Call it what you will: the service economy, the information age, the knowledge society. It all translates to a fundamental change in the way we work. Already we’re partly there. Th e percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen dramatically in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan (two thirds or more in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the number is on the More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more and more part-time jobs, and a growing number of people who are self-employed. But the breadth of the economic transformation can’t be measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to a radical new way of thinking about the nature of work Long-held notions about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between individuals and employers — all these are being challenged.We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one looking ahead 20 years possibly could have foreseen the ways in which a single invention, the chip (集成块), would transform our world thanks to its applications in personal computers, digital communications and factory robots. Tomorrow’s achievements inbiotechnology, artificial intelligence or even some still unimagined technology could produce a similar wave of dramatic changes like the invention of the But one thing is certain: information and knowledge will become even more vital, and people who possess it, whether they work in manufacturing or services, will have the advantage and produce the Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write.So the whole world w ill be computerized and some people will adapt, others won’t. But hopefully not all work will be equal. Some people argued, that people no longer should be classified as white or blue collar, manager or laborer, but rather as knowledge and service workers. The ability to solve problems by applying information instead of performing routine tasks will be valued above all else. But there will be a future in manufacturing, and the reason for that, is the move away from standardized production and toward more flexible, customized manufacturing. To survive, the workers have to think of new ways to meet the changing demands of customers.11. A characteristic of the information age is that ____.A) the service industry is relying more and more on the female work forceB) manufacturing industries are steadily increasingC) people find it harder and harder to earn a living by working in factoriesD) most of the job opportunities can now be found in the service industry正确答案：D12. One of the great changes brought about by the knowledge society is that ____.A) the difference between the employee and the employer has become insignificantB) people’s traditional concepts about work no longer hold trueC) most people have to take part-time jobsD) people have to change their jobs from time to time正确答案：B13. By referring to computers and other inventions, the author means to say that ___.A) people should be able to respond quickly to the advancement of technologyB) future achievements in technology will bring about inconceivable dramatic changesC) the importance of high technology has been overlookedD) computer science will play a leading role in the future information services正确答案：B14. The future will probably belong to those who ____.A) possess and know how to make use of informationB) give full play to their brain potentialC) involve themselves in service industriesD) cast their minds ahead instead of looking back正确答案：A15. Which of the following would be the best title for the passageA) Computers and the Knowledge SocietyB) Service Industries in Modern SocietyC) Features and Implications of the New EraD) Rapid Advancement of Information Technology正确答案：CPassage TwoQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.When global warming finally came, it stuck with a vengeanc（猛烈地;激烈地）. In some regions, temperatures rose several degrees in less than a century. Sea levels shot up nearly 400 feet, flooding coastal settlements and forcing people to migrate inland. Deserts spread throughout the world as vegetation shifted drastically in North America, Europe and Asia. After driving many of the animals around them to near extinction, people were forced to abandon their old way of life for a radically new survival strategy that resulted in widespread starvation and The adaptation was farming: the global-warming crisis that gave rise to it happened more than 10,000 years ago.As environmentalists convene in Rio de Janeiro this week to ponder the global climate of the future, earth scientists are in the midst of a revolution in understanding how climate has changed in the past — and how those changes have transformed human existence. Researchers have begun to piece together an illuminating picture of the powerful geological and astronomical forces that have combined to change the planet’s environment from hot to cold, wet to dry and back again over a time period stretching back hundreds of millions ofMost importantly, scientists are beginning to realize that the climatic changes have had a major impact on the evolution of the human New research now suggests that climate shifts have played a key role in nearly every significant turning point in human evolution: from the dawn of primates (灵长目动物) some 65 million years ago to human ancestors rising up to walk on two legs, from the huge expansion of the human brain to the rise of agriculture. Indeed, the human history has not been merely touched by global climate change, some scientists argue, it has in some instances been driven by it.The new research has profound implications for the environmental summit in Rio. Among other things, the findings demonstrate that dramatic climate change is nothing new for planet Earth. The benign (宜人的) global environment that has existed over the past 10,000 years — during which agriculture, writing, cities and most other features of civilization appeared — is a mere bright spot in a much larger pattern of widely varying climate over the ages.In fact, the pattern or climate change in the past reveals that Earth’s climate will alm ost certainly go through dramatic changes in the future — even without the influence of human16. Farming emerged as a survival strategy because man had been obliged ____.A) to give up his former way of lifeB) to leave the coastal areasC) to follow the ever-shifting vegetationD) to abandon his original settlement正确答案：A17. Earth scientists have come to understand that climate ____.A) is going through a fundamental changeB) has been getting warmer for 10,000 yearsC) will eventually change from hot to coldD) has gone through periodical changes正确答案：D18. Scientists believe that human evolution ____.A) has seldom been accompanied by climatic changesB) has exerted little influence on climatic changesC) has largely been affected by climatic changesD) has had a major impact on climatic changes正确答案：C19. Evidence of past climatic changes indicates that ____.A) human activities have accelerated changes of Earth’s environmentB) Earth’s environment will remain mild despite human interferenceC) Earth’s climate is bound to change significantly in the futureD) Earth’s climate is unlikely to undergo substantial changes in the future正确答案：C20. The message the author wishes to convey in the passage is that ____.A) human civilization remains glorious though it is affected by climatic changesB) mankind is virtually helpless in the face of the dramatic changes of climateC) man has to limit his activities to slow down the global warming processD) human civilization will continue to develop in spite of the changes of nature正确答案：BPart III Vocabulary and Structure( 13 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

新标准大学英语_综合教程3_课后答案unit7 Unit7Active reading(1)Can bad luck be explained?Language points1Part of the explanation for bad luck is mathematical, but part is psychological.(Para2)The sentence means bad luck is not only a matter of the odds for or against something happening,but ofour memories and attitudes.2This popular notion would be unlikely to stand the scrutiny of any scientific study…otherwise the phrase would never have arisen in the first place.(Para 3)To stand the scrutiny of any scientific study means to survive any scientific examination.The expression in the first place is used to mean what someone did or should have done at the start of a situation,eg I wish I’d never got involved i n the first place.3So badness is much better represented as being on a spectrum rather than something which is thereor not there.(Para5)The sentence means that badness is not an either/or quality,but a matter of degree,and it exists on a continuum.4When it comes to bad things happening in threes,what may be most important of all is the durationand memorability of the first event.(Para7)The sentence means that the impact of the first unpleasant event and the length of time we remember it isthe critical factor in the origin of the common idea that three bad events often occur together.Unit7The secret life of science2305The timescale has been extended as long as is necessary to confirm the original prophecy.(Para8)The idea behind the sentence is that after one bad event, people predict two more and will wait a long timeif necessary for them to happen and so to prove the prediction.6But it is more likely that a friend will tell you“three bad things havehappened to me,isn’t thatty pical”than“only two bad things have happened to me, which just proves that the theory doesn’twork”.(Para9)Some times after the second bad event,nothing happens for a long time.We could tell people that ourexperience shows that the idea that bad luck comes in threes is wrong.But we do not.That seems to beasking for a third piece of bad luck to come along.Instead we wait for the third event and then say the oldtheory has been proved yet again.7It is related to probability and independence.(Para10) Probability means how events are connected to one another, how probable it is something will happen.Independence refers to how much interdependence there is between events.8One of the best examples of selective memory…(Para16)A selective memory means remembering only some facts or only what we want to.We select somememories and reject others.Reading and understanding2Choose the best way to complete the sentences.1Murphy’s Law is(a).(a)a popular belief(b)a scientific law(c)a classical theory(d)a statistical calculation2Bad luck(b).(a)can be explained by science(b)can be partly blamed on strange coincidences(c)only really exists in people’s minds(d)is impossible to explain3“Bad luck”is a problematic concept because(a).(a)it is relative;some things are more“bad”than others(b)it suggests a connection between science and morality(c)luck is never good or bad by definition(d)it encourages people not to take responsibility for their own actions4Unlucky events seem to come in threes because(b).(a)three is an unlucky number in most cultures(b)the mind wants to make connections between events(c)we don’t notice single unlucky events(d)we can’t remember more than three connected events The secret life of science Unit72315For some people,unlucky events are connected because (d).(a)they are psychologically weaker than other people(b)they have better memories than other people(c)they define bad luck differently from other people(d)the first unlucky event has an effect on them which makes the second event more likely6The writer says map reading is a frustrating experience because(a).(a)the destination will often be marked very near the edge of the map(b)it is difficult to consult a street atlas while you’re in a car(c)the destination is unlikely to be marked in the middle of the map(d)modern road maps have not been well designed7The writer says we believe that traffic lights are always re d when we’re ina hurry because(b).(a)traffic lights spend more time on red than green(b)we hardly notice when the lights are green(c)red lights are a source of stress(d)red lights appear more often when a driver is in a hurry 8The examples of map reading and traffic lights both show that(a).(a)we are often too ready to interpret a neutral event as“bad”(b)if we are in a hurry,something bad will usually happen(c)journeys need to be carefully planned to avoid things going wrong(d)bad luck is a direct result of stress and anxiety Dealing with unfamiliar words3Match the words in the box with their definitions.1something harmful or unpleasant that happens to someone (misfortune)2neither positive nor negative(neutral)3relating to or involving mathematics(mathematical)4weak or easy to hurt physically or mentally(vulnerable) 5happening or coming after something else(subsequent) 6the number of times that something happens during a period of time(frequency)4Complete the sentences with the correct form of the words in Activity 3.1Some people seem to blame all their misfortunes on badluck.2Many people would argue that there is no such thing as bad luck;all events are neutral.3The frequency with which things seem to go wrong may depend on things like health factors.4Is it a mathematical certainty that toast will always fall butter side down?5We need to help the most vulnerable people in our society. 6If you’re depressed,and one thing goes wron g,all

综合教程III U7 习题答案
An Integrated English Course IIIUnit 7Text I The ChaserKey to ExercisesText comprehension (Ps89-90)I. Decide which of the following best describes the tone of the story.A. The whole story is a satire. First, the idea that there exists a love potion in the world is a satire on love. If love could be bought, then love would no longer be priceless. Second, that the old man reminds Alan repeatedly of his stock of glove-cleaner to show the idea that he may need it someday is a satire on the fate of love. Love, however fiery and fierce at the beginning, may probably end up in death. So the whole story is satirical in tone.II. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F. Refer to Paragraph 5. Though the old man's stock in trade is not large, it is of more than one kind, and of a special effect.2. F. Refer to Paragraph 19. The effects of the love potion, according to the old man, are strong, permanent, and everlasting.3. T. The young man has fallen in love with a girl who is very fond of parties but who does not seem to be so fond of him. That is why he decides to go to the old man for the love potion and whenever the old man mentions the magic of his potion, he can't help "crying." From that, we can see the man loves the girl deeply.4. F. The old man sells the love potion almost for nothing because by doing so his customers will come back for a much dearer commodity, the glove-cleaner, to help them out. It is the "death potion" that the old man makes most of his profits from, and intends to sell to his customers.III. Answer the following questions.1. What the old man means is that young men who fall in love one-sidedly are seldom rich enough to win young girls' heart; if the young man was rich enough, it would be much easier for him to win the girl's heart. His words imply that money is one of the crucial factors for love. If a man is not rich, he can never expect to be loved by a girl.2. The love potion has a powerful, everlasting effect. It replaces indifference with devotion and scorn with adoration. It will make a gay girl want nothing but solitude and her lover's company. She will feel jealous for him when her lover is with other girls; she will want to be everything to him. She will be only interested in her lover and take every concern of him. Even if he slips a bit, she will forgive him though terribly hurt. In a word, she will fall in love with him if she drinks the love potion.3. The author seems to imply by the great gap between the prices of the love potion and the glove-cleaner that love is far from being precious. It is easy for a man to fall in love, yet hard for him to stick to it. That's why he has to pay a colossal amount to get himself out of it. The other reason for the low price of the love potion may be that by doing so, the old man can attract more customers to his primary commodity, the glove-cleaner.4. One of the moral lessons that can be drawn from the story is that anything precious, love included, is most likely to have an end. A person can easily fall in love and get married, but whatawaits him/her could be endless remorse, and a wish that it might end as soon as possible. So one should be wise and keep their eyes open when they are in love though love is said to be blind.5. The young man's speech is short and changing: At first, he speaks in a hesitant and tentative manner, but later on his speech changes into a succession of cries and exclamations. In contrast, the old man's speech tends to be long, stable and well-developed throughout the story. Their speeches form a sharp contrast which helps to bring out the two characters. The young man is green, passionate, and hopelessly in love, while the old man is calm, sensible, and a bit satirical. It is by this contrast that the theme of the story is brought out more effectively.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken from the text.1. “…just because I have decided to do you a favor/sell you the love potions, I feel safe telling you all the secret a bout my medicines.”2. “They, the love potions,” said the old man, “will help change the girl’s attitude towards you. She will no longer neglect or contempt you. Instead, she will begin to give you deep-felt love and care.”Structural analysis of the text (P90)The last line "goodbye, until we meet again" carries an ironic double meaning. It's a conventional way to say goodbye. And with all those clues given in the story, it also suggests that the old man expects the young man will return for the glove-cleaner.Rhetorical features of the text (P90)"It would be no good charging that sort of price for a love potion. Young people who need a love potion very seldom have five thousand dollars. Otherwise they would not need a love potion" (Paragraph 13).Vocabulary exercises (Ps90-92)I. Explain the underlined part in each sentence in your own words.1. feeling very much worried and afraid2. everything I sell could be well deemed as extraordinary3. difficult to notice4. which is more than enough5. have much more everlasting effects than only the momentary impulse6. with extreme happiness and enthusiasmII.

But as it is, they are moved to the initial position to achieve emphasis or to highlight the contrast.II.1. Music Mary likes; sports she doesn’t.2. Growl you may, and go you must.3. They have promised to finish the work, and finish it they will.4. His face not many admired, while his character still fewer could praise.5. A professor he was, but in name only.6. He might have agreed under pressure; agree willingly he would never.III.1. The pronounced guilty every one of the accused.2. He had called an idiot the man on whose judgment he now had to rely.3. We cannot set totally aside a whole system of rules devised by Congress itself.4. The problem then arose of what contribution the public should pay.5.

Their readiness to accept the peace agreement really surprised the diplomatic world.3. My determination to pass the test helped me.4. Her failure to get into college disappointed her parents.5. My willingness to co-operate was appreciated.6. His refusal to help surprised me.V. Make sentences of your own after the sentences given below, keeping the underlined parts in your sentences.1.

The traveling salesman appeared late in the 19th century both in Europe and in the U.S. The early itinerant peddler carded his goods on his back or on his horse, working his way from a port city through the hinterlands. With the coming of the railroad and the assurance given to sellers by new credit-reporting systems, salesmen with their sample cases moved across the land. Persuasive skill was less important in those days of unsatisfied demand, and orders were readily forthcoming. By 1900, however, with the increasing supply of manufactured goods, buyers became more discriminating in their purchases. Greater attention was given to training the sales force and to providing buyer incentives. The growth of industrialization and urban living led to the development of merchandising as a major business endeavor. The use of sales promotion practices experienced steady growth in the 20th century.

With its quick growth / development, people are given/ can enjoy an equally convenient access to educational resources, no matter where they are.2.Translate the following paragraph into English using the words and expressions in the boxbelow.▆ Answers for reference:A university, in essence, provides students with both occupational training and intellectual development. The students acquire professional skills in order to have the minimum qualifications to become specialists, such as pharmacists, engineers, technicians and lawyers. It might be reasonable to believe that those skills suffice to enable them to get a good job. Nevertheless, does one feel content with merely a good job? We know that most young people who enroll in universities long for not only professional training, but also quality education; namely, they want to learn what the past learnt for them and get in touch with the minds and experience of the master thinkers in order to become civilized people. Those who are knowledgeable only in their peculiar fields may be labeled (as) “mechanized savages”, because of their incompetence in understanding the thinking and works of other fields, for example, philosophy, literature and the arts. Thus, the university is most likely to help young people realize two dreams after they graduate:having a good job where their occupational training will be effective, and living a meaningful life for which diversity of knowledge is required.Theme-Related WritingDo either one of the following two tasks after class.1.Write an essay entitled “The Significance of Lifelong Education.” The following outlinemay be of some help:1)In the past, a college education was enough to ensure a well-paid, much-respected joband a sense of achievement.2)Today, with the increasing competition in our “knowledge society”, it is a must to renewone’s knowledge and upgrade one’s skills. What’s more, a general college education serves only as a passport to lifetime education.3)The concept of lifelong education finds expression in the slogan “Live and Learn.”2.“Should Family Schooling E xist?” This question is raised in a news report carried in anEnglish newspaper in China. Read the report below and write a short essay to express your own views on the issue.▆ Sample essay for task 1:The Significance of Lifelong EducationDecades ago, due to the low standard of living in China, only a small percentage of the nation’s population could receive college education. Once given the opportunity, one would surely secure a well-paid and much-respected job, which he or she would probably do for a lifetime. Therefore, to secure a college degree used to be the ultimate goal of a person’s education.Today, however, we are living in what is called a “knowledge society,” where creative ideas and innovations are generated at a fantastic speed. One must constantly renew one’s knowledge and upgrade one’s skills so as to meet the needs of the changing world. Moreover, at the stage of general education, it is pointless for a person to attempt to know everything. When one is required to settle down to be a specialist in a specific field, one has to make an in-depth study of the subject one is supposed to know. In this sense, general education can provide students with only a passport to lifelong education. As Robert Maynard Hutchins once said, the object of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives.In my opinion, life in modern society is not only a process of “learning to live” but also a process of “living to learn”. The slogan “Live and Learn” can best reflect the concept of lifelong education. (226 words)▆ Sample essay for task 2:Should Family Schooling Exist？Meng Mu Tang, a private school in Shanghai, is modeled after the educational system of ancient Chinese home schools, which favored rote memorization and recitation of classic works. But the local education authorities in Shanghai have declared it illegal according to a report in 21st Century. Should family schooling exist? What role should it play?In my opinion, family schooling should be permitted to play a positive role in the current educational system in China. Every family should be free to choose the form of education that best suits their children’s interests and natural gifts. Although the existing education system in China has remarkably improved, it does not fit each child perfectly. Since family schooling provides a means to develop a person’s talents and unique interest, Meng Mu Tang, as a private school geared to a specific group of children, should not be banned in haste. In view of the current dynamic, quality-minded educational reforms in China, we should permit family schooling to enrich and diversify our educational system.On the other hand, home schooling should adapt itself to the modern world. To prepare children for the future, it should equip them with knowledge and innovative power so that they can cope with the development of the modern world. While tapping children’s innate talents on an individual basis, family schooling should never neglect their all-round development. Meng MuTang may not be a perfect private school, but we should let it live and have a try so that family schooling may eventually become an indispensable component of our formal education.

Unit 7Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:The song you are about to hear came about through a chance meeting. The singer, Donna Summer, was having a meal with her manager in an expensive restaurant in the plush Beverly Hills area of Los Angeles. As Donna tells the story: "I went into the ladies, and saw one of the waitresses sleeping on a stool, absolutely exhausted from lack of sleep," she says. "I woke the lady up and asked her name. She was called Onetta and simply told me she worked hard for money.

It attempts to give us some idea of the hardships he faces and the strength of character he shows. For his job is made all the more difficult by a handicap from which he suffers, which makes it difficult for him to move normally.The story starts with Bill struggling to get himself ready to go to work in the early morning. It then follows him on his long journey to work and the discouraging rejections he receives. As the story unfolds, we learn more about his past and his character, how, for example, he followed his father's example in becoming a salesman and how proud he is of his ability to support himself by his trade. We learn how many miles he has to walk, and the household provisions he deals in. In many ways, his life seems bleak. He does not get home until late at night and lives alone. He is getting old. Yet, despite all this, he refuses to give way to self-pity.(181 words)Appendix I - 137。

• 1.“我亲爱的先生，” 老人回答说，“我的货物存量并不多—我不卖 泻药和牙痛药---虽然存量不多，但品种却不少。 我想是我卖的货没有 一样可以说是寻常的。” • 2. “你若愿意，可以叫它手套清洁剂，”老人淡淡地说，“或许它会 把手套洗干净。 我从来没有试过。也可以叫它生活清洁剂。生活有时 是需要清洗的。” • 3.“哦， 亲爱的， 不，”老人说，“比如，爱情魔液要卖那样高的价 是不行的。需要爱情魔液的年轻人很少，很少能有五千美元，要不他 们就不需要爱情魔液了。” • 4. “这种没药能以全身心的爱来替代冷漠，”老人说，“能以崇拜来 替代轻视。 给哪位年轻的女士喝上哪怕就那么一点点---它的味道在橘 子汁、汤或鸡尾酒中是感觉不到的---不管她怎样放浪和轻浮，她会彻 底地改变。她只想独处或者与你呆在一起。”
• “我想问你是不是卖，呃，一种有着特殊效果的混合物。” 年轻人问道。“我亲爱的先生，事实上，我这里卖的任何 东西都是不寻常的，虽然我物品的库存相当有限。”“但 是你……”年轻人有点迫不及待。“这是一种像水一样的无 色液体，化在咖啡里、茶里、葡萄酒里或者其它饮料里是 看不出来的，”老人打断他的话，“但它被起名为万能清 洁液，它能够清洁一切东西，从手套到生活。我相信生活 有时是需要清洗的。”
• “恐怕那不是我所需要的东西，”年轻人说。“这没关系，我 仍然想让你知道它的价格。小小的勺，当然这也足够了，我收 费不下于6000美金，一点也不能少。”年轻人心里充满着担忧， 但是老人继续说：“然而要是卖爱情魔液也收这么多的钱是不 合实际的，甚至是残酷的。年轻人喜欢爱情魔液，但是情况往 往是这样的，他们，我指的是那些需要爱情魔液的人，他们不 够富裕，这么高的价格他们是买不起的，所以啊，它的定价低 得令人难以置信。”这时年轻人的脸上露出了微笑。“这个爱 情魔液有……”“它有着不同寻常的效果，”老人说。他似科能 够读懂年轻人的心思。“效果是持久的，姑娘喝了这爱情魔液， 将把你看成她生活中唯一的兴趣。” • 年轻人离开了屋子，心里溢满了幸福感。他太幼稚了，不知道 他以及和他相似的年轻人将很有可能用自己的钱来造就一个富 翁，因为他或许会在将来不断地造访老人，来买其它价格昂贵、 效果不同寻常的混合物。
