新视野大学英语第二版第四册读写教程课文原文
Unit1Para1 An artist who seeks fame is like a dog chasing his own tail who, when he captures it, does not know what else to do but to continue chasing it.The cruelty of success is that it often leads those who seek such success to participate in their own destruction.Para2 "Don't quit your day job!" is advice frequently given by understandably pessimistic family members and friends to a budding artist who is trying hard to succeed. The conquest of fame is difficult at best, and many end up emotionally if not financially bankrupt. Still, impure motives such as the desire for worshipping fans and praise from peers may spur the artist on. The lure of drowning in fame's imperial glory is not easily resisted.Para3Those who gain fame most often gain it as a result of exploiting their talent for singing, dancing, painting, or writing, etc. They develop a style that agents market aggressively to hasten popularity, and their ride on the express elevator to the top is a blur. Most would be hard-pressed to tell you how they even got there. Artists cannot remain idle, though. When the performer, painter or writer becomes bored, their work begins to show a lack of continuity in its appeal and it becomes difficult to sustain the attention of the public. After their enthusiasm has dissolved, the public simply moves on to the next flavor of the month. Artists who do attempt to remain current by making even minute changes to their style of writing, dancing or singing, run a significant risk of losing the audience's favor. The public simply discounts styles other than those for which the artist has become famous.Para4 Famous authors' styles a Tennessee Williams play or a plot by Ernest Hemingway or a poem by Robert Frost or T.S. Eliotare easily recognizable.The same is true of painters like Monet, Renoir, or Dali and moviemakers like Hitchcock, Fellini, Spielberg, Chen Kaige or Zhang Yimou.Their distinct styles marked a significant change in form from others and gained them fame and fortune. However, they paid for it by giving up the freedom to express themselves with other styles or forms.Para5 Fame's spotlight can be hotter than a tropical jungle－a fraud is quickly exposed, and the pressure of so much attention is too much for most to endure.It takes you out of yourself: You must be what the public thinks you are, not what you really are or could be. The performer, like the politician, must often please his or her audiences by saying things he or she does not mean or fully believe.Para6 One drop of fame will likely contaminate the entire well of a man's soul, and so an artist who remains true to himself or herself is particularly amazing. You would be hard-pressed to underline many names of those who have not compromised and still succeeded in the fame game. An example, the famous Irish writer Oscar Wilde, known for his uncompromisin g behavior, both social and sexual, to which the public objected, paid heavily for remaining true to himself. The mother of a young man Oscar was intimate with accused him at a banquet in front of his friends and fans of sexually influencing her son. Extremely angered by her remarks, he sued the young man's mother, asserting that she had damaged his "good" name. He should have hired a better attorney, though. The judge did not second Wilde's call to have the woman pay for damaging his name, and instead fined Wilde. He ended up in jail after refusing to pay, and evenworse, was permanently expelled from the wider circle of public favor. When things were at their worst, he found that no one was willing to risk his or her name in his defense. His price for remaining true to himself was to be left alone when he needed his fans the most.Para7 Curiously enough, it is those who fail that reap the greatest reward: freedom! They enjoy the freedom to express themselves in unique and original ways without fear of losing the support of fans. Failed artists may find comfort in knowing that many great artists never found fame until well after they had passed away or in knowing that they did not sell out. They may justify their failure by convincing themselves their genius is too sophisticated for contemporary audiences.Para8 Single-minded artists who continue their quest for fame even after failure might also like to know that failure has motivated somefamous people to work even harder to succeed. Thomas Wolfe, the American novelist, had his first novel Look Homeward, Angel rejected 39 times before it was finally published. Beethoven overcame his father, who did not believe that he had any potential as a musician, to become the greatest musician the world. And Pestalozzi, the famous Swiss educator in the 19th century, failed at every job he ever had until he came upon the idea of teaching children and developing the fundamental theories to produce a new form of education. Thomas Edison was thrown out of school in the fourth grade, because he seemed to his teacher to be quite dull. Unfortunately for most people, however, failure is the end of their struggle, not the beginning.Para9 I say to those who desperately seek fame and fortune: good luck. But alas, you may find that it was not what you wanted. The dog who catches his tail discovers that it is only a tail. The person who achieves success often discovers that it does more harm than good. So instead of trying so hard to achieve success, try to be happy with who you are and what you do. Try to do work that you can be proud of. Maybe you won't be famous in your own lifetime, but you may create better art.Unit2Para1 He was born in a poor area of South London. He wore his mother's old red stockings cut down for ankle socks. His mother was temporarily declared mad.Dickens might have created Charlie Chaplin's childhood. But only Charlie Chaplin could have created the great comic character of "the Tramp", the little man in rags who gave his creator permanent fame.Para2 Other countries—France, Italy, Spain, even Japan—have provided more applause (and profit) where Chaplin is concerned than the land of his birth.Chaplin quit Britain for good in 1913 when he journeyed to America with a group of performers to do his comedy act on the stage, where talent scouts recruited him to work for Mack Sennett, the king of Hollywood comedy films.Para3Sad to say, many English people in the 1920s and 1930s thought Chaplin's Tramp a bit, well, "crude". Certainly middle-class audiences did; the working-class audiences were more likely to clap for a character who revolted against authority, using his wicked little cane to trip it up, or aiming the heel of his boot for a well-placed kick at its broad rear. All the same, Chaplin's comic beggar didn't seem all that English or even working-class. English tramps didn't sport tiny moustaches, huge pants or tail coats: European leaders and Italian waiters wore things like that. Then again, the Tramp's quick eye for a pretty girl had a coarse way about it that was considered, well, not quite nice by English audiences—that's how foreigners behaved, wasn't it? But for over half of his screen career, Chaplin had no screen voice to confirm his British nationality.Para4 Indeed, it was a headache for Chaplin when he could no longer resist the talking movies and had to find "the right voice" for his Tramp. He postponed that day as long as possible: In Modern Times in 1936, the first film in which he was heard as a singing waiter, he made up a nonsense language which sounded like no known nationality. He later said he imagined the Tramp to be a college-educated gentleman who'd come down in the world. But if he'd been able to speak with an educated accent in those early short comedies, it's doubtful if he would have achieved world fame. And the English would have been sure to find it "odd". No one was certain whether Chaplin did it on purpose but this helped to bring about his huge success.Para5 He was an immensely talented man, determined to a degree unusual even in the ranks of Hollywood stars. His huge fame gave him the freedom—and, more importantly, the money—to be his own master. He already had the urge to explore and extend a talent he discovered in himself as he went along. "It can't be me. Is that possible? How extraordinary," is how he greeted the first sight of himself as the Tramp on the screen.Para6 But that shock roused his imagination. Chaplin didn't have his jokes written into a script in advance; he was the kind of comic who used his physical senses to invent his art as he went along. Lifeless objects especially helped Chaplin make "contact" with himself as anartist. He turned them into other kinds of objects. Thus, a broken alarm clock in the movie The Pawnbroker became a "sick" patient undergoing surgery; boots were boiled in his film The Gold Rush and their soles eaten with salt and pepper like prime cuts of fish (the nails being removed like fish bones). This physical transformation, plus the skill with which he executed it again and again, is surely the secret of Chaplin's great comedy.Para7 He also had a deep need to be loved—and a corresponding fear of being betrayed.The two were hard to combine and sometimes—as in his early marriages—the collision between them resulted in disaster.Yet even this painfully-bought self-knowledge found its way into his comic creations.The Tramp never loses his faith in the flower girl who'll be waiting to walk into the sunset with him; while the other side of Chaplin makes Monsieur Verdoux, the French wife killer, into a symbol of hatred for women.Para8 It's a relief to know that life eventually gave Charlie Chaplin the stability and happiness it had earlier denied him. In Oona O'Neill Chaplin, he found a partner whose stability and affection spanned the 37 years age difference between them, which had seemed so threatening, that when the official who was marrying them in 1942 turned to the beautiful girl of 17 who'd given notice of their wedding date, he said, "And where is the young man? "—Chaplin, then 54, had cautiously waited outside. As Oona herself was the child of a large family with its own problems, she was well prepared for the battle that Chaplin's life became as many unfounded rumors surrounded them both—and, later on, she was the center of calm in the quarrels that Chaplin sometimes sparked in his own large family of talented children.Para9 Chaplin died on Christmas Day 1977. A few months later, a couple of almost comic body thieves stole his body from the family burial chamber and held it for money. The police recovered it with more efficiency than Mack Sennett's clumsy Keystone Cops would have done, but one can't help feeling Chaplin would have regarded this strange incident as a fitting memorial—his way of having the last laugh on a world to which he had given so many.Unit3Para1 A welfare client is supposed to cheat. Everybody expects it. Faced with sharing a dinner of raw pet food with the cat, many people in wheelchairs I know bleed the system for a few extra dollars. They tell the government that they are getting two hundred dollars less than their real pension so they can get a little extra welfare money. Or, they tell the caseworker that the landlord raised the rent by a hundred dollars.Para2I have opted to live a life of complete honesty. So instead, I go out and drum up some business and draw cartoons. I even tell welfare how much I make! Oh, I'm tempted to get paid under the table. But even if I yielded to that temptation, big magazines are not going to get involved in some sticky situation. They keep my records, and that information goes right into the government's computer. Very high-profile.Para3 As a welfare client I'm expected to bow before the caseworker. Deep down, caseworkers know that they are being made fools of by many of their clients, and they feel they are entitled to have clients bow to them as compensation. I'm not being bitter. Most caseworkers begin as college-educated liberals with high ideals. But after a few years in a system that practically requires people to lie, they become like the one I shall call "Suzanne", a detective in shorts.Para4 Not long after Christmas last year, Suzanne came to inspect my apartment and saw some new posters pasted on the wall. "Where'd you get the money for those? " she wanted to know.Para5 "Friends and family."Para6 "Well, you'd better have a receipt for it, by God. You have to report any donations or gifts."Para7 This was my cue to beg. Instead, I talked back. "I got a cigarette from somebody on the street the other day. Do I have to report that? "Para8 "Well, I'm sorry, but I don't make the rules, Mr. Callahan."Para9 Suzanne tries to lecture me about repairs to my wheelchair, which is always breaking down because welfare won't spend money maintaining it properly."You know, Mr. Callahan, I've heard that you put a lot more miles on that wheelchair than average."Para10 Of course I do. I'm an active worker, not a vegetable. I live near downtown, so I can get around in a wheelchair. I wonder what she'd think if she suddenly broke her hip and had to crawl to work.Para11 Government cuts in welfare have resulted in hunger and suffering for a lot of people, not just me. But people with spinal cord injuries felt the cuts in a unique way: The government stopped taking care of our chairs. Each time mine broke down, lost a screw, needed a new roller bearing, the brake wouldn't work, etc., and I called Suzanne, I had to endure a little lecture.Finally, she'd say, "Well, if I can find time today, I'll call the medical worker."Para12 She was supposed to notify the medical worker, who would certify that there was a problem. Then the medical worker called the wheelchair repair companies to get the cheapest bid. Then the medical worker alerted the main welfare office at the state capital. They considered the matter for days while I lay in bed, unable to move. Finally, if I was lucky, they called back and approved the repair.Para13 When welfare learned I was making money on my cartoons, Suzanne started "visiting" every fortnight instead of every two months. She looked into every corner in search of unreported appliances, or maids, or a roast pig in the oven, or a new helicopter parked out back. She never found anything, but there was always a thick pile of forms to fill out at the end of each visit, accounting for every penny.Para14 There is no provision in the law for a gradual shift away from welfare. I am an independent businessman, slowly building up my market. It's impossible to jump off welfare and suddenly be making two thousand dollars a month. But I would love to be able to pay for some of my living and not have to go through an embarrassing situation every time I need a spare part for my wheelchair.Para15 There needs to be a lawyer who can act as a champion for the rights of welfare clients, because the system so easily lends itself to abuse by the welfare givers as well as by the clients. Welfare sent Suzanne to look around in my apartment the other day because the chemist said I was using a larger than usual amount of medical supplies. I was, indeed: The hole that has been surgically cut to drain urine had changed size and the connection to my urine bag was leaking.Para16 While she was taking notes, my phone rang and Suzanne answered it. The caller was a state senator, which scared Suzanne a little. Would I sit on the governor's committee and try to do something about the thousands of welfare clients who, like me, could earn part or all of their own livings if they were allowed to do so, one step at a time?Para17 Hell, yes, I would! Someday people like me will thrive under a new system that will encourage them, not seek to convict them of cheating. They will be free to develop their talents without guilt or fear—or just hold a good, steady job.Unit4Para1 A transformation is occurring that should greatly boost living standards in the developing world. Places that until recently were deaf and dumb are rapidly acquiring up-to-date telecommunications that will let them promote both internal and foreign investment. It may take a decade for many countries in Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe to improve transportation, power supplies, and other utilities. But a single optical fiber with a diameter of less than half a millimete can carry more information than a large cable made of coppe wires. By installing optical fiber, digital switches, and the latest wireless transmission systems, a parade of urban centers and industrial zones from Beijing to Budapest are stepping directly into the Information Age. A spider's web of digital and wireless communication links is already reaching most of Asia and parts of Eastern Europe.Para2All these developing regions see advanced communications as a way to leap over whole stages of economic development. Widespread access to information technologies, for example, promises to condense the time required to change from labor-intensive assembly work to industries that involve engineering, marketing, and design. Modern communications "will give countries like China and Vietnam a huge advantage over countries stuck with old technology".Para3 How fast these nations should push ahead is a matter of debate. Many experts think Vietnam is going too far by requiring that all mobile phones be expensive digital models, when it is desperate for any phones, period. "These countries lack experience in weighing costs and choosing between technologies," says one expert.Para4 Still, there's little dispute that communications will be a key factor separating the winners from the losers. Consider Russia. Because of its strong educational system in mathematics and science, it should thrive in the Information Age.The problem is its national phone system is a rusting antiqu that dates from the l930s. To lick this problem, Russia is starting to install optical fiber and has a strategic plan to pump $40 billion into various communications projects.But its economy is stuck in recession and it barely has the money to even scratch the surface of the problem.Para5Compare that with the mainland of China. Over the next decade, it plans to pour some $100 billion into telecommunications equipment. In a way, China's backwardness is an advantage, because the expansion occurs just as new technologies are becoming cheaper than copper wire systems. By the end of 1995, each of China's provincial capitals except for Lhasa will have digital switches and high-capacity optical fiber links. This means that major cities are getting the basic infrastructure to become major parts of the information superhighway, allowing people to log on to the most advanced services availablePara6 Telecommunications is also a key to Shanghai's dream of becoming a top financial center.To offer peak performance in providing the electronic data and paperless trading global investors expect, Shanghai plans telecommunications networks as powerful as those in Manhattan.Para7 Meanwhile, Hungary also hopes to jump into the modern world. Currently, 700,000 Hungarians are waiting for phones. To partially overcome the problem of funds and to speed the import of Western technology, Hungary sold a 30% stake in its national phone company to two Western companies.To further reduce the waiting list for phones, Hungary has leased rights to a Dutch-Scandinavian group of companies to build and operate what it says will be one of the most advanced digital mobile phone systems in the world.In fact, wireless is one of the most popularways to get a phone system up fast in developing countries. It's cheaper to build radio towers than to string lines across mountain ridges, and businesses eager for reliable service are willing to accept a significantly higher price tag for a wireless call—the fee is typically two to four times as much as for calls made over fixed lines.Para8 Wireless demand and usage have also exploded across the entire width and breadth of Latin America. For wireless phone serviceproviders, nowhere is business better than in Latin America—having an operation there is like having an endless pile of money at your disposal. Bellsouth Corporation, with operations in four wireless markets, estimates its annual revenu per average customer at about $2,000 as compared to $860 in the United States. That's partly because Latin American customers talk two to four times as long on the phone as people in North America.Para9 Thailand is also turning to wireless, as a way to allow Thais to make better use of all the time they spend stuck in traffic. And it isn't that easy to call or fax from the office: The waiting list for phone lines has from one to two million names on it. So mobile phones have become the rage among businesspeople who can remain in contact despite the traffic jams.Para10 Vietnam is making one of the boldest leaps. Despite a per person income of just $220 a year, all of the 300,000 lines Vietnam plans to add annually will be optical fiber with digital switching, rather than cheaper systems that send electrons over copper wires. By going for next-generation technology now, Vietnamese telecommunications officials say they'll be able to keep pace with anyone in Asia for decades.Para11 For countries that have lagged behind for so long, the temptation to move ahead in one jump is hard to resist. And despite the mistakes they'll make, they'll persist—so that one day they can cruise alongside Americans and Western Europeans on the information superhighway.Unit5Para1 Here we are, all by ourselves, all 22 million of us by recent count, alone in our rooms, some of us liking it that way and some of us not. Some of us divorced, some widowed, some never yet committed.Para2 Loneliness may be a sort of national disease here, and it's more embarrassing for us to admit than any other sin. On the other hand, to be alone on purpose, having rejected company rather than been cast out by it, is one characteristic of an American hero. The solitary hunter or explorer needs no one as they venture out among the deer and wolves to tame the great wild areas. Thoreau, alone in his cabin on the pond, his back deliberately turned to the town. Now, that's character for you.Para3 Inspiration in solitude is a major commodity for poets and philosophers.They're all for it. They all speak highly of themselves for seeking it out, at least for an hour or even two before they hurry home for tea.Para4 Consider Dorothy Wordsworth, for instance, helping her brother William put on his coat, finding his notebook and pencil for him, and waving as he sets forth into the early spring sunlight to look at flowers all by himself. "How graceful, how benign, is solitude," he wrote.Para5 No doubt about it, solitude is improved by being voluntary.Para6Look at Milton's daughters arranging his cushions and blankets before they silently creep away, so he can create poetry. Then, rather than trouble to put it in his own handwriting, he calls the girls to come back and write it down while he dictates.Para7 You may have noticed that most of these artistic types went outdoors to be alone.The indoors was full of loved ones keeping the kettle warm till they came home.Para8 The American high priest of solitude was Thoreau. We admire him, not for his self-reliance, but because he was all by himself outthere at Walden Pond, and he wanted to be—all alone in the woods.Para9 Actually, he lived a mile, or 20 minutes' walk, from his nearest neighbor; half a mile from the railroad; three hundred yards from a busy road. He had company in and out of the hut all day, asking him how he could possibly be so noble. Apparently the main point of his nobility was that he had neither wife nor servants, used his own axe to chop his own wood, and washed his own cups and saucers. don't know who did his laundry; he doesn't say, but he certainly doesn't mention doing his own, either. Listen to him: "I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude."Para10 Thoreau had his own self-importance for company. Perhaps there's a message here: The larger the ego, the less the need for other egos around. The more modest and humble we feel, the more we suffer from solitude, feeling ourselves inadequate company.Para11 If you live with other people, their temporary absence can be refreshing.Solitude will end on Thursday. If today I use a singular personal pronoun to refer to myself, next week I will use the plural form. While the others are absent you can stretch out your soul until it fills up the whole room, and use your freedom, coming and going as you please without apology, staying up late to read, soakin in the bath, eating a whole pint of ice cream at one sitting, moving at your own pace. Those absent will be back. Their waterproof winter coats are in the closet and the dog keeps watching for them at the window. But when you live alone, the temporary absence of your friends and acquaintances leaves a vacuum; they may never come back.Para12 The condition of loneliness rises and falls, but the need to talk goes on forever.It's more basic than needing to listen. Oh, we all have friends we can tell important things to, people we can call to say we lost our job or fell on a slippery floor and broke our arm.It's the daily succession of small complaints and observations and opinions that backs up and chokes us. We can't really call a friend to say we got a parcel from our sister, or it's getting dark earlier now, or we don't trust that new Supreme Court justice.Para13 Scientific surveys show that we who live alone talk at length to ourselves and our pets and the television. We ask the cat whether we should wear the blue suit or the yellow dress.We ask the parrot if we should prepare steak, or noodles for, dinner. We argue with ourselves over who is the greater sportsman: that figure skater or this skier. There's nothing wrong with this.It's good for us, and a lot less embarrassing than the woman in front of us in line at the market who's telling the cashier that her niece Melissa may be coming to visit on Saturday, and Melissa is very fond of hot chocolate, which is why she bought the powdered hot chocolate mix, though she never drinks it herself.Para14 It's important to stay rational.Para15It's important to stop waiting and settle down and make ourselves comfortable, at least temporarily, and find some grace and pleasure in our condition, not like a self-centered British poet but like a patient princess sealed up in a tower, waiting for the happy ending to our fairy tale.Para16 After all, here we are. It may not be where we expected to be, but for the time being we might as well call it home. Anyway, there is no place like home.Unit6Para1 Students taking business courses are sometimes a little surprised to find that classes on business ethics have been included in theirschedule. They often do not realize that bribery in various forms is on the increase in many countries and, in some, has been a way of life for centuries.Para2 Suppose that during a negotiation with some government officials, the Minister of Trade makes it clear to you that if you offer him a substantial bribe, you will find it much easier to get an import license for your goods, and you are also likely to avoid "procedural delays", as he puts it. Now, the question is: Do you pay up or stand by your principles?Para3 It is easy to talk about having high moral standards but, in practice, what would one really do in such a situation? Some time ago a British car manufacturer was accused of operating a fund to pay bribes, and of other questionable practices such as paying agents and purchasers an exaggerated commission, offering additional discounts, and making payments to numbered bank accounts in Switzerland. The company rejected these charges and they were later withdrawn.Nevertheless, at that time, there were people in the motor industry in Britain who were prepared to say in private: "Look, we're in a very competitive business. Every year we're selling more than a ￡1billion worth of cars abroad. If we spend a few million pounds to keep some of the buyers happy, who's hurt? If we didn't do it, someone else would."Para4 It is difficult to resist the impression that bribery and other questionable payments are on the increase. Indeed, they seem to have become a fact of commercial life. To take just one example, the Chrysler Corporation, the third largest of the US car manufacturers, revealed that it made questionable payments of more than $2.5 million between 1971 and 1976. By announcing this, it joined more than 300 other US companies that had admitted to the US Securities and Exchange Commission that they had made payments of one kind or another—bribes, extra discounts, etc.—in recent years. For discussion purposes, we can divide these payments into three broad categories.Para5 The first category consists of substantial payments made for political purposes or to secure major contracts. For example, one US corporation offered a large sum of money in support of a US presidential candidate at a time when the company was under investigation for possible violations of US business laws.This same company, it was revealed, was ready to finance secret US efforts to throw out the government of Chile.Para6 In this category, we may also include large payments made to ruling families or their close advisers in order to secure arms sales or major petroleum or construction contracts. In a court case involving an arms deal with Iran, a witness claimed that ￡1 million had been paid by a British company to a "negotiator" who helped close a deal for the supply of tanks and othermilitary equipment to that country. Other countries have also been known to put pressure on foreign companies to make donations to party bank accounts.Para7The second category covers payments made to obtain quicker official approval of some project, to speed up the wheels of government. An interesting example of this kind of payment is provided by the story of a sales manager who had been trying for some months to sell road machinery to the Minister of Works of a Caribbean country. Finally, he hit upon the answer. Discovering that the minister collected rare books, he bought a rare edition of a book, slipped$20,000 within its pages, then presented it to the minister. This man examined its contents, then said, "I understand there is a two-volume edition of this work."Para8 The sales manager, who was quick-witted, replied, "My company cannot afford a two-volume edition, sir, but we could offer you a copy with a preface!" A short time later, the deal was approved.The third category involves payments made in countries where it is traditional to pay people to help with the passage of a business deal. Some Middle East countries would be included on this list, as well as certain Asian countries.Para9Is it possible to devise a code of rules for companies that would prohibit bribery in all its forms? The International Chamber of。

ScriptNora: Hey John.John:heyNora: I took a course on how the airport runs, and I don't suffer from fear of flying any more. Last week I flew nonstop to San Francisco.John: Congratulations! Which flight did you take?Nora: United Airlines, Flight UA858.John: How did it go? Everything smooth sailing?Nora: Not everything. Since I hadn't traveled by air for a long time, I wasn't familiar with the airport. It took me quite a while to find the United Airlines check-in counter. John: Then how did you find it?Nora: In fact, it was displayed on the monitor: "Flight UA858 c~/Counter 45." John: And was everything OK once you found it?Nora: No, there was a terrible line-up. I had to wait there for an hour.John: I see. You must have been burned out waiting before you even boarded the plane.Nora: That still wasn't the end of my troubles. When I finally got to the counter and handed in my passport and ticket, the airline agent looked at my passport and at me again and again.John: Why? Did she think your passport was a fake?Nora: I don't know. I just told her my photo did not flatter me at all.John: Your photo certainly doesn't do justice to your beauty.Nora: She didn't say anything like that. Fortunately, when I asked for an aisle seat, she said she had one. You know, I wouldn't dare take a window seat and look out the window.John: I prefer an aisle seat, too. Then I can stretch my legs and occasionally stand up in the aisle.Nora: Finally she gave me a boarding pass, and it said that my flight would be boarding at Gate 33 in just minutes.

The queue was quite short. But I had another problem.A: What was that?B: When I handed in my passport, the airline agent looked at it for a long time.A: Why? Did the agent think your passport was a fake?B: No, she didn't, but she told me that my passport was going to expire in a week.

It took me a while to go through the procedure.A: Any good news before you boarded the plane?B: Yes, when I asked for a window seat, I got one.

So I had to run!A: But you made it! Good for youMODEL 3 I've got jet lag.ScriptSusan: Wow! What happened? You look like something the cat dragged in.John: You would too if you’d been through what I have. I've got jet lag.Susan: Jet lag's not for real, is it? It's like a "broken heart"-a figure of speechJohn: It’s for real. See my eyes? They’re all bloodshot. I can’t eat; I can’t sleep. Susan: How long does this jet lag last after you’re home again and walking round? John: I don’t know exactly. It can be a day for each hour’s difference in time. Susan: Ouch! At that rate it’ll take you twelve days to recover from the flight. John: Maybe a drink on the plane can ease your jet lag.Susan: That's not a very good idea. Alcohol dries you out when it's combined with altitude and stale dry air in the cabin.John: I wonder whether a long flight like that is worth the high cost.Susan: Take my advice. Go by boat. Arrive rested and ready to enjoy your holiday. John: No, it'll take too long-longer than the time for me to reset my biological clock after a flight.Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: Wow! What's wrong with you? You look dead tired ~B: You would too if you'd been through what I have. I've got jet lag. See my eyes: they're bloodshot. I can't eat; I can't sleep.A: How long will this jet lag last?B: I don't know exactly. It can be a day for each hour's difference in time.A: Ouch! At that rate it'll take you twelve days to recover. Maybe a drink on the plane can save you from jet lag.B: That's not a good solution, I'm afraid. Alcohol dries you out when it's combined with altitude and stale dry air in the cabin. But if you drink a lot of water, it helps. A: let's check on the Internet to see how we can overcome jet lag quickly.B: Look, here's an article. So you need to get some exercise. You can go to the gym to work out.A: You should try to match your schedule with the local time. When it's time to go to bed but you don't feel sleepy, you might as well take sleeping pills.B: When you feel sleepy in broad daylight, you can drink strong coffee to stay awake. A: In this way you can reset your biological clock quickly.V. Let' TalkScriptBefore I conclude my talk, I'd like to summarize what we have covered.Air travel has its inherent advantages. Airplanes fly fast, and they are now flying faster than before. Now supersonic passenger planes can fly across the Atlantic Ocean in just a couple of hours. It is reported that new models are being designed. In the future they may carry people from New York to London in less than an hour.In the past not many people traveled by air because of the high fares. Now owing to the market competition, the fare has dropped a great deal, so more people are traveling by air. In the 1990s, the United States witnessed an explosive growth in demand for air travel. Many millions who had never, or rarely flown before, became regular passengers. They even joined frequent flyer loyalty programs, receiving free flights and other such benefits.Flying has become increasing convenient. The introduction of new services and more frequent flights has meant that business flyers can fly to another city, do business, and return on the same day. This applies to almost any two points in the country.Some passengers worry about safety in flying. In a crash there are usually no survivors. However, to prevent tragic accidents and serious financial loss, airlines are especially cautious in checking the conditions of aircraft to reduce the possibility of accidents to the minimum. It is sometimes claimed that flying involves fewer accidents than any other modes of travel.Airplanes do have their disadvantages. For example, they are incapable of transporting large quantities of cargo.Also, an airport can be quite far away from the city center. But the advantages of flying outweigh these small drawbacks, and flying remains an efficient kind of transportation.That's the end of my lecture. Now may I take your questions if you have any?Pros and Cons of FlyingPro 1An airplane flies fast(1) Supersonic passenger planes can fly across the Atlantic Ocean in just acouple of hours;(2) In future they may carry people from Now York to London in less than anhour.Pro 2 The fare has dropped a great deal, so more people are traveling by air: Many millions became regular passengers, and even joined frequent flyer loyaltyprograms.Pro 3Flying has become increasingly convenient: Business fliers can fly to another city, do business, and return on the same day.Pro 4Airlines are cautious about checking the conditions of aircraft to reduce the possibility ofaccidents to the minimumCon 1The plane is incapable of transporting large quantities of cargo.Con 2An airport can be quite far away from the city center.DissussionSAMPLEA: I like flying better than any other way of traveling. It's so fast and convenient that you can fly to another city, do business, and return on the same day, between almost any points in the country.B: But land transport is not slow, thanks to superhighways. What's more, it's often cheaper.A: I'll admit air fare is a bit high, but it's dropped a lot. The high speed and great convenience are worth the money.B: Land transport is often safer. In case of accidents like a fire, you can jump out of the car. Can you jump our of a plane?A: It's true that in a crash there are often no survivors. However, airlines are especially cautious in checking the conditions of aircraft. It's sometimes believed that flying involves fewer accidents than other kinds of travel.B: The problem with a plane is that it can't transport large quantities of cargo.A: I agree, but certainly a plane can carry perishable goods like fresh vegetables to a distant city quickly and safely.B: But an airport is often quite far away from the city center. So that will add to your traveling time. You can’t fly directly to your final destination.A: You have a point there. I know trucks can provide door-to-door delivery service, but buses and trains can't.B: OK, let's come to this conclusion: each type of transport has its own advantages and disadvantages.A: Yes, that's why none of them has been phased out.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1:An Overview of AirlinesScriptAn airline is an organization which provides aviation services for passengers and cargo. It owns or leases airliners to supply these services and may form partnerships or alliances with other airlines for reasons of mutual benefits.The scale and scope of airline companies range from those with a single airplane carrying mail or cargo, to full-service international airlines operating many hundreds of airplanes of various types. Airline services can be categorized as intercontinental, intra-continental, regional or domestic and may be operated as scheduled services or charters. These variations in the types of airline companies, their operating scope, and the routes they serve, make analysis of the airline industry complex. But one thing is certain: The industry is heavily influenced bythe market now. In the past 50 years or so, the general trend of ownership has gone from government-owned or government-supported to independent, for-profit companies. This is a result of the government permit greater freedom. This trend is not yet consistent across all airlines in all regions. The demand for air travel services depends on other things: needs for cargo transportation, business passenger demand, leisure passenger demand, which are all influenced by macroeconomic activity in the market. These trends are highly seasonal, and often depend on day-of-week, or time-of-day. The industry is cyclical. Four or five years of poor performance are followed by five or six years of gradual improvement in performance.1.D 2 C 3.D 4.A 5.BTask2:Results of Damage TestingScript:Birds often cause accidents when they strike aircraft. To date no reliable method of avoiding birds has been discovered. But scientists at the NASA space center havedeveloped a gun built to launch dead chickens at the windshields of airliners, military jets and the space shuttle, all traveling at their top speed. The idea is to reproduce the frequent incidents of collisions with birds to test the strength of the windshields. Trains sometimes encounter similar problems with birds. It was not surprising that when British engineers heard about the gun, they were eager to test it on the windshields of their new high-speed trains.Arrangements were made to borrow the gun. It was flown across the Atlantic and set up with great care near London. But when the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken flew into the shield, smashed it, went through the engineer's chair, and landed on the back of the car.Horrified, the British sent NASA the results of the disastrous experiment, along with the designs of the new windshield. They begged the U.S. scientists to send them their suggestions for avoiding smashed windshields. NASA reviewed the test thoroughly and had one recommendation: "Thaw the chicken.”Task3: Funny Flight AnnouncementsScript:Occasionally, airline crews try to make their announcements entertaining. Here are some examples that have been reported. One pilot delivered this welcome message: "We are pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry. Unfortunately none of them are on this flight."One pilot said, "Folks, we have reached our cruising altitude now, so I'm going to switch the seatbelt sign off. Feel free to move about as you wish, but please stay inside the plane till we land. It's a bit cold outside, and if you walk on the wings, it affects the flight pattern."A Southwest Airlines employee said, "In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, oxygen masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have small children traveling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with two small children, decide now which one you love more."Another flight attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing goes like this: "We ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to the terminal." Still another attendant said, “As you exit the plane, please be sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses. Last one off the plane must clean it.”News ReportParagliding for a Publishing DealScriptAn Australian writer-and paraglider-tried landing in front of Buckingham Palace lastDecember to help him land a publishing deal.In what looked like a scene from a James Bond movie, the paraglider, 36-year-old Brett de la Mare, was followed through the skies of central London by a police helicopter as he headed toward the palace-the London home of Queen Elizabeth II. The royal family was not present at the time, but police took the incident seriously, all the same. The helicopter tried to force the paraglider away, but in the end, he succeeded in landing on the palace grounds. Police there promptly arrested him.This was no terrorist, however, as Police had feared. He was, rather, a writer trying to gain publicity to help publish a book, called “C anine Dawn”. Unable to get publishers interested in the book, he tried some new ways to get attention.After the incident, de la Mare explained what happened to reporters. "I came in over the fence, and I landed in the forecourt here, and the crowd started cheering. And I was arrested and dragged off." De la Mare said police had difficulty deciding what to charge him with: "They initially…they arrested me for attempted burglary.. of ...Buckingham Palace... and of course, they dropped that. I mean, attempted burglary! I mean, it's hardly a discreet method of burglary..." They later charged him with breaches of the Air Navigation Order.De la Mare left a humorous message on his cell phone for callers: "Hi, this is Brett. I'm sorry you missed me. I am incarcerated right now or something. Please leave me a message, and I'll get back to you as soon as I am free."。

新视野大学英语第三版第二册读写课文翻译Unit 1 Text A一堂难忘的英语课1 如果我是唯一一个还在纠正小孩英语的家长，那么我儿子也许是对的。
对他而言，我是一个乏味的怪物：一个他不得不听其教诲的父亲，一个还沉湎于语法规则的人，对此我儿子似乎颇为反感。
2 我觉得我是在最近偶遇我以前的一位学生时，才开始对这个问题认真起来的。
这个学生刚从欧洲旅游回来。
我满怀着诚挚期待问她：“欧洲之行如何？”3 她点了三四下头，绞尽脑汁，苦苦寻找恰当的词语，然后惊呼：“真是，哇！”4 没了。
所有希腊文明和罗马建筑的辉煌居然囊括于一个浓缩的、不完整的语句之中！我的学生以“哇！”来表示她的惊叹，我只能以摇头表达比之更强烈的忧虑。
5 关于正确使用英语能力下降的问题，有许多不同的故事。
学生的确本应该能够区分诸如their/there/they're之间的不同，或区别complimentary 跟complementary之间显而易见的差异。
由于这些知识缺陷，他们承受着大部分不该承受的批评和指责，因为舆论认为他们应该学得更好。
6 学生并不笨，他们只是被周围所看到和听到的语言误导了。
举例来说，杂货店的指示牌会把他们引向stationary（静止处），虽然便笺本、相册、和笔记本等真正的stationery（文具用品）并没有被钉在那儿。
朋友和亲人常宣称They've just ate。
实际上，他们应该说They've just eaten。
因此，批评学生不合乎情理。
7 对这种缺乏语言功底而引起的负面指责应归咎于我们的学校。
学校应对英语熟练程度制定出更高的标准。
可相反，学校只教零星的语法，高级词汇更是少之又少。
还有就是，学校的年轻教师显然缺乏这些重要的语言结构方面的知识，因为他们过去也没接触过。
学校有责任教会年轻人进行有效的语言沟通，可他们并没把语言的基本框架——准确的语法和恰当的词汇——充分地传授给学生。
8 因为语法对大多数年轻学生而言枯燥且乏味，所以我觉得讲授语法得一步一步、注重技巧地进行。

新视野大学英语2课文翻译「Unit8」
新视野大学英语2课文翻译「Unit8」新视野大学英语2是由国家级名师上海交通大学郑树棠教授担任总策划和教材总主编而成的教育部普通高等教育“十五”国家级规划教材。
下面是第八单元的课文翻译，欢迎阅读!新视野大学英语2课文翻译【1】人们常常说：对于青春来说，最令人悲伤的事情莫过于青春在年轻时被浪费掉了。
在读一份对大学一年级新生作的调查报告时，我又想起了这种惋惜之情：“要是当初我就懂得了现在我领悟到的东西该有多好!”这份调查报告印证了我以前根据在梅肯和罗宾斯住宿中心对学生进行的非正式民意调查所作的推断：学生们认为如果某种东西(不管它是何物)没有实际意义，不能把它当酒喝、当烟抽、当钱花，那么“它”就基本毫无价值。
基于对188，000多名学生答卷的调查表明，当今的大学新生比这项民意测验开始17年以来的任何时候的大学新生都“更主张消费主义，同时也少了些理想主义”。
在这个经济不景气的时代，学生们的主要目标是追求“经济上的富裕”。
与过去任何时候相比，树立有意义的人生哲学已不那么重要了。
这一情况并不让人感到惊奇。
因此，如今最受欢迎的课程不是文学或历史，而是会计学。
如今人们对当教师、社会服务和人文学科、还有种族和妇女研究的兴趣都处于低潮。
而另一方面，攻读商科、工程学及计算机科学的学生人数却在迅速增加。
还有一件事也不令人意外。
我的一个朋友(一个化工公司的销售代理)在干这份工作的第一年所挣的钱就已是大学教师薪水的两倍了──这甚至还是在她修完两年制的准学士学位课程之前的事。
她喜欢说这样一句话：“我会对他们讲，他们学习音乐、历史、文学等等有什么用!”那还是四年以前呢，我都不敢想象她现在赚多少钱。
坦率地说，我为这位小姐感到骄傲(不是为她的态度，而是为她的成功)。
但是我们为什么不能两全其美呢?我们就不能教会人们既懂得谋生，又懂得人生么?我相信我们能够做到。
如果我们做不到这一点，那就是对我们从幼儿园、小学、中学直到大学的整个教育制度的否定。

教案课程名称新视野商务英语视听说(第三版)(上) 课时班级专业教师系部教研室教材《新视野商务英语视听说(第三版)(上)》1Unit 8 Receiving Visitors Learning Objectives（教学目标）2Business Profile（内容概览）ReceptionistThe WorkMost organisations employ receptionists, for example, hotels, factories, hospitals, schools, etc. Receptionists’main duty is to deal with members of the public, who could be clients, visitors or patients. They provide information, answer queries, and direct the comers to the right person. They may need to keep the reception area tidy, organise reading materials and provide refreshments. They should also be aware of the organisation’s safety and security procedures, ensuring the procedures are followed at all times.In smaller companies, or where the reception area is less busy, it may be necessary to perform a wider range of tasks. Receptionists might need to answer the switchboard, take messages and deal with telephone enquiries or do basic clerical work. They might also be required to handle cash and do simple bookkeeping.Skills and InterestsTo be a receptionist you should:●be outgoing and confident with a pleasant personality, and enjoy dealing with the public;●have a smart appearance;●have good communication skills, both spoken and written;●be able to stay calm under pressure at busy times;●be courteous, but firm, when dealing with difficult, impatient or distressed people;3●be efficient and well organised;●be able to work on your own;●have basic computer skills;●be able to use office equipment such as switchboards, fax machines and photocopiers;●be interested in the work of the organisation.Having a working knowledge of a foreign language can be useful, especially when dealing with visitors from overseas.4Language Expansion（语言扩充）Receiving visitors at the officeAsking for name/identification of the visitorAre you Miss Karolin from ABC?May I have your name, please?Yes, I am.

This may confuse Arabs and Latin Americans, who are accustomed to strong, steady eye contact. On the other hand, Norwegian gaze behaviour may confuse many Asians. Negotiators from these cultures are used to soft, indirect eye contact, and equate the Scandinavian gaze with staring, which is regarded as rude, hostile behaviour. Furthermore, visitors should have confirmed appointments. Although references and introductions are useful anywhere in the world, you can contact Norwegian companies directly by telephone, fax or email to make an appointment. Intermediaries are much less important than in Asia, Latin America and the Middle East.Terms of AddressNorwegians usually address each other rather informally and use first names. However, when introduced for the first time, address your counterpart by Mr. or Ms. and their surname, e.g. Ms. Jason. Wait for your counterpart to suggest switching to first names. Male visitors should not be surprised if they are addressed by their surname alone.Professional titles followed by the family name, such as Doctor Larsen or Professor Thomas are used when relevant to the situation, whereas business titlessuch as Director are not used. It is sometimes appropriate to address senior9government officials by their titles.Business PunctualityBusiness meetings usually start on time in Norway. Plan to arrive five to ten minutes early for appointments. If you are going to be even a few minutes late, call to explain the problem. A late visitor is presumed to be either impolite or disinterested. Meetings are rarely interrupted by phone calls or other intrusions.DressAlthough Norwegian business people are sometimes a little more relaxed than in many other business cultures, as a general rule, business visitors should wear a suit and tie, especially when visiting large multinational companies. However, dress norms vary depending on the business and situation involved. A casual jacket with trousers is acceptable attire when, for example, visiting construction sites. Follow the lead of your host.HandshakingNorwegians expect a firm, brief handshake and steady, moderate eye contact. Prolonged pumping is not done. Shake hands with each person present and again when leaving. Only at formal affairs should a semi-stiff posture and mild bow accompany a handshake.Business Versus Leisure TimeNorwegians tend to have a relaxed attitude toward business. Business is as important as leisure time. Norwegians usually expect weekends to be free of business obligations. Visitors may find it impossible to secure business appointments on Saturday mornings or even Friday afternoons.10Schedules and DeadlinesSchedules and deadlines are very firm. Norwegians quickly lose interest in dealing with business partners who fail to meet their obligations on time.Giving GiftsExcept for Christmas presents and tasteful logo items, Norway is not a gift-giving business culture. However, upon successful completion of negotiations, a bottle of quality cognac or whisky will be welcome. Make sure your gift is wrapped in quality paper.PersuasionAn American saying is that a good marketing man sells the sizzle, not the steak. This philosophy often falls flat in Norway. Norwegian business people tend to be irritated by hard sell tactics. They react better to a well-documented, straightforward approach without hype or exaggerated claims. The concept of new is not as convincing in Norway as in the U.S., where new is often associated with something better. If you can demonstrate that something is solid and of good quality, then you will have a much better chance.HumourIn contrast to some other Northern European cultures such as Germany, humour is quite acceptable during presentations. Jokes and casual conversation mix well with serious business discussions. But remember that because it is strongly culture-specific, humour often does not translate well. Self-deprecating humour is perhaps the least likely to offend.ConversationNorwegians appreciate modesty and a certain degree of humility. They consider11flaunting wealth or success to be in poor taste. Material things do not overly impress them. The same lack of interest applies to name dropping, i.e. the mention of influential or famous people you know. Avoid comments that could be taken as boastful or selfpromoting.Good topics of conversation include hobbies, politics, travel and sports, especially winter sports such as skiing. Norwegians are proud of their country and their history. Many Norwegians have very close ties with nature. The visitor should avoid being critical of things, attitudes or organisations. Norwegians tend toward restraint when criticising their own affairs.Discussion:1. What do you know about Norwegians’terms of address?2. How important is leisure time to Norwegians?3. What kind of conversation style do Norwegians prefer?12补充教学资源Video 1Receiving a visitor to the office(Situation: Mr. Dantini, an American businessman, comes for his appointment with Mr. Hansen.

After 17 years of education in the finest schools in America, he couldn't repair a burnt connection in his car or locate a carburetor (化油器>. ix6iFA8xoXDanny is an educated man. He is a master of writing papers, taking tests, talking, and filling out forms. He can discuss Freud from a Marxian viewpoint and he can discuss Marx from a Freudian viewpoint. wt6qbkCyDEIn short, Danny is a worker without skills, and he has a sociology degree to prove it. He is of very little use to American industry. Kp5zH46zRkThis is nothing new. Colleges have been turning out workers of this sort for decades. Until five years ago, most of these workers took their degrees in sociology, philosophy, political science, or history, and marched right into the American middle class. Some found work in business and government but many, if not most, went into education,which is the only thing they knew anything about. Once there, they taught another generation the skills necessaryto take tests and write papers. Yl4HdOAA61But the cycle broke down. There are too many teachers these days, college applications are down, plumbers are making$ 12 an hour, and graduates with degrees in fields like sociology are faced with a choice: graduate school or drive a taxi.ch4PJx4BlIDanny chose the taxi because driving was about the onlyskill he had that he could make money with. Danny refers to his job as "Real World 101". He has been beaten and shot at. But he has also acquired some practical skills: he can get his tickets fixed。

Infact, some researchers claim that less than half of a spokenmessage’s real meaning is in the message. They say thatmost of a message’s meaning comes from understandinghow the speaker uses things like tone of voice and bodylanguage.Body language includes such things as the expressionon the speaker’s face, gestures the speaker makes with hisor her hands, and the position of the speaker’s body. Just asthere are many different languages spoken around the world, there are many different ways for people to use body language, too. For example, gestures may imply different meanings in different cultures. Making a “thumbs up” sign in America means “Great!” However, in Arab cultures, this gesture is extremely offensive. And in India, if listeners want to show speakers that they understand, the listeners will move their heads from side to side. In many Western countries, a similar gesture means “no.”Although many gestures can be interpreted differently by different cultures, there are also many gestures that are almost universally interpreted the same way. For example, by and large a smile is understood as a sign of friendship or good will around the world. Also, using an open hand to gesture toward something is viewed as polite or friendly in most cultures.There are also some forms of body language that can be universally read with the meaning, “I am interested in you” or “I like you.” Sometimes this kind of body language is used unconsciously between two people. These signs of interest include standing or sitting with both feet flat on the ground, mirroring or using the same gestures as the other person, and turning one’s body to fully face the other person. In addition, a person’s pupils will automatically become wider when they are interested in another person.Body language that ca be read with the meaning, “I am not interested in you” or “I don’t like you,”may include the following gestures: looking down or looking in another direction, leaning away from a person, crossing one’s arms or legs, or tapping a foot or finger.Body language experts point out one important thing. The person’s culture is only one factor that can influence his or her use of body language. The time and place where the body language is being used can have a lot to do with a person’s body language. If the person has had a bad day or if a meeting takes place in a crowded place, the body language a person uses may be very different than under other circumstances.Reading Comprehension 阅读理解Circle the letter of the best answer.1.

What advice abut body language in your country would you give to foreign tourist?2. How can the tone of someone ’s voice show what they are thinking?Part 1: Find the same meaning 同义替换In the 1960s, an anthropologist named Edward. T. Hall noticed that he ways people used the space around their body were not universal. In fact he (1) demonstrated that the use of space changes according to culture, and is done without thinking. This area of the study of body language and the ways people use was given the name proxemics. Hall thought that by studying proxemics people would be able to understand the uses of space in their own culture better, and then they would be able to (2) understand the ways other cultures use space too. Hall believed that there were four different types of space: public, social, personal, and intimate. Public space is the largest of these areas, going from 3.5 to 7.5 metters. In a large auditorium the speaker might be this distance away. Social space ranges from 1.5 to 3.5 meters and is the space we use in public with people we don ’t know well. Personal space is much closer, from 0.6 to 1.5 meters, and we use this with friends or family. We also use this space when we stand in line to buy tickets or get on a train. The smallest distance is intimate space, only about 30 centimeters away. This is so close that we may touch other people and this is the space we use with children or when we want to hug or kiss someone we love. Hall started his research by looking at how animals use space. Then he watched people use space to see if it(3) was related to who the people were with. Hall learned that in American culture, if a stranger comes into your personal or intimate space, people thinks it ’s (4) rude. By and large, they will try to back away from the stranger to increase the space between them. Of course, in enclosed spaces such as elevators and crowded trains, it is not possible to increase the place, so people have to use other ways. In those (5) conditions, people protect their personal space by shrinking. They move their arms tightly against their bodies and avoid any eye contact. The next time you are in that kind of environment, keep track of how people behave. Decide which words or idioms in the box mean the same as the underlined words in the article. Write the word on the line next to the number. There are there extra items. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Part 2: Read and answer 阅读并答题Circle the letter of the best answer. 1.
