◆ who somehow appear distinguished from ordinary
people.
And you would not be alone, because pollsters have found that people today do not choose political leaders who shape history for their "Most Admired" list, but rather movie and television celebrities, fashion models, professional athletes, and even comic book and cartoon characters. In short media icons.
bigger than life, you might come up with an entirely
different list. You might, in fact, name people who are
celebrated for their wealth and glamour rather than their achievements and moral strength of character.如 果有人请你列举在社会上受到普遍赞赏、貌似非 凡的人,你所列举的恐怕是完全不同的人。
就定义而言,英雄之所以与众不同是因为他们有 非凡的勇气、取得卓越的成就、常常为他人的利 益而作出牺牲。 by definition:按定义 be distinguished by:由于……而有别(于……) heroes and heroines are people who are different from other people because of their unusual courage, achievements and the sacrifices they make in the interests of others.

Pre-reading questions for discussionDiscuss and answer the following questions.1.What ,in your opinion,are the disadvantages of growing older?2. What do you think are the virtues of being young?3.Most people are afraid of death and therefore afraid of getting older,but are there any virtues of old age that you can observe and appreciate?Step II. An Integrated Analysis of Text 1The Virtues of Growing Older.Structural analysis of the text1. The passage can be divided into three parts.Part One: (Paragraph 1-2 ) this is the introductory paragraphIt tells that our society worships youth and being young is often pleasant ,but being older has distinct advantages.Part Two: (Paragraph 3-5) It describes the virtues of growing older in details:We no longer feel anxious about what others will think ;We have already made many of critical decisions;The greatest benefit of being older is knowing who i am.Part Three:(Paragraph 6)this is a conclusion paragraphThe writer winds up her discussion with a reference to her parents’ contentments in the last paragraph.Step III. Comprehension questionsAnalysis of Paragraghs1-21)Why do people want to hide their gray hair and delay the effect of aging? They worship youth and are afraid of growing older, so they try every means to look young.2)What does the writer mean when she says “it is un-American to say so”?She means these questions seem contrary to the values commonly held by most American people. And the American people would do anything possible to delay aging.3)Does the writer deny the virtues of being young?No, she does not. The writer admits the virtues of being young, but what she really wants to talk about is those advantages of growing older, which are discussed in the subsequent paragraphs. So the last sentence of the second paragraph is both thematic and transitionalParagraph 3AnalysisThe writer, in this paragraph, offers the first advantage of growing older -not being obsessed with one’s appearance. It can be noticed that the technique of contrast is used to project the difference between adolescents and people in their forties:“When my brother Dave and I were teens…”“When Dave and I were young…”“Now, however, Dave and I are beyond such adolescent agonies.”“Now my clothes are attractive yet easy to wear.”“We no longer feel anxious…”These contrasts are focused on two aspects: the shape of their bodies and clothes. With her own experience, the writer drives home her point that adolescents “feel anxious about what others will think”, while older people are happy “as long as we feel good about how we look”.The following question could be asked:1)What is the change in people’s attitude towards their appearance from the writer’s own experience?Old people no longer feel anxious about what others will think. As long as they feel good about what they look, they are happy.Paragraph 4AnalysisThe second advantage is discussed in this paragraph -people in their forties are less uncertain than adolescents. The last sentence pinpoints the writer’s view: what truly worries the young people is not the problem of age, but the unknowns in the future.The following question could be asked:Is it accurate to say that older people are totally free from uncertainty?No, because they still have important choices to make. However, they have already made their major ones, while the young people will meet theirs at every turn. Paragraph 5AnalysisThis paragraph presents the third and the greatest benefit of growing older: the knowledge about yourself (the self-identity). It is implied that lack of this knowledge can bring about a kind of adolescent insanity (in contrast with the sanity of forty-year-olds) expressed in parallel structures “It means…”, “Being young means…”The following questions could be asked:1)What is the meaning of “…wishing you were never born the next”?It is related with first half of the sentence and the complete one should be “feeling happy with yourself one day and wishing you were never born the next day (because you feel so miserable)”.2)How to explain the phrase “keep a running score of everything they didwrong raising me”?It means “constantly reminding yourself of all the unhappy things that your parents did to you in the process of raising you”. Here “score” means “record”Language points.Paragraph 6After sharing her own experience in contrast to adolescents’ problems with the reader, in this paragraph the writer turns to the issue similar to the one mentioned in the first paragraph: the validity of American values on the aging problem. The writer cites her parents’ example to back her view, thus echoing the theme -distinct advantages of growing older makes a better phase of life.Step IV Language points:1.convince v.1)convince sb / yourself (of sth) to make sb/yourself believe that sth is truee.g. you’ll need to convince them of your enthusiasm fo r the job.I’d convinced myself (that) I was right.2) to persuade sb to do sthe.g. I’ve been trying to convince him to see a doctor.2.…glaldly sign with the devil just to be young again: Literally, the phrase “signwith the devil” means “to sign a contract with the devil, so that the devil would help you become young again”.

Teaching Reflection:Try to listen to the feedback of the students during and after the course, analyze the weaknesses in teaching and improve the methods as much as possible.The feedback from the students:The methods taken to improve the teaching and learning:X. Appendix: Teaching Contents:A. Text AnalysisTo make a character portrait convincing, an author must refrain from telling readers directly what the person is like. Instead, he/she lets readers deduce.Of all the methods of indirect description, the one used most frequently in Text A is quotation. The author quotes not only Sam Walton himself, e.g. “Th e reason for our success... is our people and the way they’re treated and the way they feel about their company. They believe things are different here, but they deserve the credit”, but also his townsfolk and colleaguesThe text begins with an anecdote: how waiter Jamie Beaulieu had anticipated a lavish mansion at the Waltons, only to find an ordinary-looking household. This kind of beginning lures readers to go on. There are other anecdotes, like how Sam Walton forgot his wallet and insisted on fetching it to pay the local barber, and how he lost 4 straight games after a Wal-Mart employee asked him a question about pricing.Sam Walton is a folksy guy, of which a lot of examples are given. Examples of how generous an employer he is are also plentiful.Jami e Beaulieu’s anticipation and the reality he later found out form a contrast. It reveals SamWalton’s down-home characteristics. When retired company president Ferold F. Arend compared Sam Walton with his previous employer, we appreciate further Sam Walton’s generosity.B. Cultural Notes1. Rolls-Royce: any of the large, expensive, comfortable cars made by the British company Rolls-Royce. Many people recognize them by the small metalstatue on the front of every Rolls-Royce car. The company was formed in 1905—1906 by Charles Rolls (1877—1910) and Henry Royce (1863—1933) and also produces aircraft engines. The Rolls-Royce company was bought by the German company Volkswagen in 1998. The name Rolls-Royce is also used informally to refer to the best product of a particular type.2. dime store: a store offering a wide assortment of inexpensive items, formerly costing five or ten cents, for personal and household use.3. Wal-Mart: any of a very large chain of shops in the US selling a wide range of goods at low prices. The first Wal-Mart Discount City was opened in 1962 by Sam Walton.4. Ford Motor Company: a large US company that makes cars. It was established in Detroit in1903 by Henry Ford, and the first Model T was sold in 1908. The company has produced the Lincoln since 1922 and the Mercury since 1938.5. names: Apart from their surname or last name, most British and American children are given two personal names by their parents, a first name and a middle name. These names are sometimes called Christian names or given names. Some people have only one given name, a few have three or more. Friends and members of a family who are of similar age usually call one another by their first names. In some families young people now also call their aunts and uncles and even their parents by their first names. Outside the family, the expression be on first name terms suggests that the people concerned have a friendly, informal relationship.When writing their name Americans commonly give their first name, their middle initial and their last name, e.g. George M. Cohan. Both given names are used in full only on formal occasions, e.g. when people get married.6. Forbes: an American business magazine. It is noted for its lists of the richest men and women in business. In its November 27, 2000 edition it published one listing the 50 richest businessmen and women in China, headed by Rong Yiren of CITIC with 1.9 billion dollars, followed in second place by LiuYongxing of the Hope Group with 1 billion dollars.

自考综合英语2-02Lesson Two The Man Who Could Work Miracles (I)H. G. Wells一个青年本来不相信有违反自然规律的所谓奇迹,却偶然发现自己能以意志力来创造奇迹。

开始他对此困惑不解,甚至有些害怕。

反复的试验证实他确实有这种本领,愉悦的情绪油然而生。

这一特异功能实在太有用了,既能为他的早餐增加一个新鲜的鹅蛋,又能使他在10分钟之内完成全天的工作,还能把自己讨厌的人一下子贬到阴曹地府。

不过这种非凡的天赋对自己、对他人究竟是福还是祸,此刻下结论还为时过早,要等到第3课才能见分晓。

1 Until he was thirty years old, Fotheringay did not believe in miracles. It was while he was asserting the impossibility of miracles that he discovered his extraordinary powers. He was having a drink in a bar. Toddy Beamish opposed everything he said by a monotonous but effective "So you say," and drove him to the limit of his patience. Angry with Mr. Beamish, Mr. Fotheringay determined to make an unusual effort.2 "Look here, Mr. Beamish," said Mr. Fotheringay. "Let us clearly understand what a miracle is. It's something contrary to the course of nature done by power of Will."3 "So you say," said Mr. Beamish.4 "For instance," said Mr. Fotheringay. "Here would be a miracle. That lamp, in the natural course of nature, couldn't burn like that upside down, could it, Beamish?"5 "You say it couldn't," said Beamish.6 "And you?" said Fotheringay. "You don't mean to say ... ?"7 "No," said Beamish reluctantly. "No, it couldn't."8 "Very well," said Mr. Fotheringay. "Then here comes someone, perhaps myself, and stands here, and says to that lamp,as I might do, collecting all my will —'Turn upside down without breaking, and go on burning steady, ' and —Hullo!"9 It was enough to make anyone say "Hullo!" The incredible was visible to them all. The lamp hung upside down in the air, burning quietly with its flame pointing down.10 Mr. Fotheringay stood with a forefinger stretched out and the troubled face of one expecting a terrible crash. A cyclist, who was sitting next to the lamp, ducked and jumped across the bar. For nearly three seconds the lamp remained still. A faint cry of mental distress came from Mr. Fotheringay; "I can't keep it up," he said, "any longer." He staggered back, and the lamp suddenly fell.11 It was lucky it had a metal container, or the whole place would have been on fire. Mr. Cox, the landlord, was the first to speak, and his remark was to the effect that Fotheringay was a fool. Fotheringay himself was astonished beyond measure at the thing that had occurred. The subsequent conversation threw no light on the matter,[0907:37] and everyone accused Fotheringay of a silly trick. He himself was terribly puzzled, and he rather agreed with them.12 He went home red-faced and hot. It was only when he found himself alone in his little bedroom that he was able to think clearly and ask, "What on earth happened?"13 He had removed his coat and boots, and was sitting on the bed with his hands in his pocket. He was repeating for the seventeenth time, "I didn't want the thing to turn over," when it occurred to him that at the precise moment he said the commanding words he had willed the thing that he said. And when he saw the lamp in the air he had felt that it depended on him to maintain it there without being clear how this was to bedone. He decided on another experiment.14 He pointed to his candle and collected his mind, though he felt he did a foolish thing. "Be raised up," he said. The candle was raised, hung in the air for a moment, and then fell with a crashon his table, leaving him in darkness.15 For a time Mr. Fotheringay sat perfectly still, "It did happen, after all," he said. "And how I'm going to explain it, I don't know." He signed heavily, and began feeling in his pockets for a match. He could find none, and he groped about the table. "I wish I had a match," he said. He tried his coat, and there were none there, and then it dawned upon him that miracles were possible even with matches. He stretched out a hand. "Let there be a match in that hand," he said. He felt some light object fall across his palm, and his fingers closed upon a match.16 After several futile attempts to light this, he threw it down, and then it occurred to him that he might have willed it to be lit. He did so, and saw it burning on the table. He caught it up hastily, and it went out. His perception of possibilities enlarged, and he felt for and replaced the candle in its candlestick. "Here! You be lit," said Mr. Fotheringay, and at once the candle was burning. For a time he stared at it, and then looked up and met his own gaze in the looking glass.17 "What about miracles now?" said Mr. Fotheringay, addressing his own reflection.18 The subsequent thoughts of Mr. Fotheringay were confused. So far as he could see, he had only to will the thing. [1001:37] After his first experiences, he wished to make only very cautious experiments. But he lifted a sheet of paper, and turned a glass of water pink, and then green, and got himself atoothbrush. In the early hours of the morning he had reached the fact that his will power must be unusual and strong. The fears of his first discovery were now mixed with pride and ideas of advantage. He heard the church clock striking one, and decided to get into bed without further delay. As he struggled to get his shirt over his head, he was struck with a brilliant idea. "Let me be in bed," he said, and found himself so. "Undressed," he added; and, finding the sheets cold, he said hastily, "and in my nightshirt — no, in a nice soft woollen nightshirt. Ah!" he said with immense enjoyment. "And now let me be comfortably asleep..."19 He awoke at his usual hour and was thoughtful all through breakfast-time. He wondered whether his experience might not be a dream. At last his mind turned again to cautious experiments. For instance, he had three eggs for breakfast; two were supplied by his landlady, good, but from the shop, and one was a delicious fresh goose-egg, laid, cooked, and served by his extraordinary will. He hurried to work in a state of profound but carefully concealed excitement. All day he could do no work because of his astonishing knowledge, but this caused him no inconvenience, because he made up for it miraculously in his last ten minutes.20 As the day passed, his state of mind passed from wonder to delight. He intended, among other things, to increase his personal property by acts of creation, and called into existence a number of nice things. But he could see that the gift required caution and watchfulness.21 After supper one night, he went out to try a few miracles in private by the gasworks. He stuck his walking stick into the ground and commanded the dry wood to blossom. The air was immediately full of the scent of roses. He struck a match and saw that this beautiful miracle was indeed accomplished. Hissatisfaction was ended by advancing footsteps. Afraid that someone would discover his powers, he said to the stick hastily, "Go back." What he meant was "Change back" ; but the stick moved backwards at a considerable speed, and there came a cry of anger from the approaching person. "Who are you throwing rosebushes at, you fool?" cried a voice.22 "I'm sorry," said Mr. Fotheringay. He saw Winch, a policeman, advancing.23 "What do you mean by it?" asked Winch. "Hullo! It's you, is it? The man who broke the lamp at that bar! What did you do it for? Do you know that stick hurt?"24 For the moment Fotheringay could not utter a word. His silence seemed to irritate Mr.Winch. "You've been assaulting the police, young man, this time."25 "Look here, Mr. Winch," said Fotheringay, annoyed and confused. "I'm very sorry. The fact is ..."26 "Well?"27 He could think of no answer but the truth.[0801:42] "I was working a miracle." He tried to speak as casually as he could.28 "Working a . .. ! Look! Don't talk rot. Working a miracle, indeed! Well, that's really funny! You're the man who doesn't believe in miracles... The fact is, this is another of your silly tricks. Now I tell you ..."29 But Mr. Fotheringay never heard what Mr. Winch was going to tell him. He realized that he had given himself away. He became violently irritated. He turned on the policeman swiftly and fiercely. "Listen," he said. "I've had enough of this. I'll show you a silly trick, Go to Hades!"30 He was alone!31 Mr. Fotheringay performed no more miracles that night, nor did he trouble to see what had become of his flowering stick. He went back, scared and very quiet. "Good Heavens!" he said, "It's an extremely powerful gift. I didn't mean as much as that. Not really... I wonder what Hades is like."32 He sat on the bed taking off his shoes. Struck by a happy thought he transferred the policeman to San Francisco, and then went to bed.33 The next day Fotheringay heard two interesting pieces of news. Someone had planted a most beautiful climbing rose near the gasworks, and everyone was looking for Constable Winch.第二课创造奇迹的人(I)直到30岁,佛泽林盖也不相信“奇迹”。
