Overcoming Obstacles Part I Pre-Reading Task Listen to the recording two or three times and then think over the following questions: 1. What happened to the singer? 2. What helped her pull through all the hardships she suffered? 3. What is the tone of the song? 4. Is the song related to the theme of the unit — overcoming obstacles? Part II Text Look at the following two sayings and then see if the story of Michael Stone bears out the points they make. The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it. —— Moliere When it is dark enough, you can see the stars. —— Charles A, Beard TRUE HEIGHT David Naster His palms were sweating. He needed a towel to dry his grip. The sun was as hot as the competition he faced today at the National Junior Olympics. The pole was set at 17 feet. That was three inches higher than his personal best. Michael Stone confronted the most challenging day of his pole-vaulting career. The stands were still filled with about 20,000 people, even though the final race had ended an hour earlier. The pole vault is truly the highlight of any track and field competition. It combines the grace of a gymnast with the strength of a body builder. It also has the element of flying, and the thought of flying as high as a two-story building is a mere fantasy to anyone watching such an event. As long as Michael could remember he had always dreamed of flying. Michael's mother read him numerous stories about flying when he was growing up. Her stories were always ones that described the land from a bird'seye view. Her excitement and passion for details made Michael's dreams full of color and beauty. Michael had this one recurring dream. He would be running down a country road. As he raced between golden wheat fields, he would always outrun the locomotives passing by. It was at the exact moment he took a deep breath that he began to lift off the ground. He would begin soaring like an eagle. Where he flew would always coincide with his mother's stories. Wherever he flew was with a keen eye for detail and the free spirit of his mother's love. His dad, on the other hand, was not a dreamer. Bert Stone was a hardcore realist. He believed in hard work and sweat. His motto: If you want something, work for it! From the age of 14, Michael did just that. He began a very careful training program. He worked out every other day with weightlifting, with some kind of running work on alternate days. The program was carefully monitored by Michael's coach, trainer and father. Michael's dedication, determination and discipline was a coach's dream. Besides being an honor student and only child, Michael Stone continued to help his parents with their farm chores. Mildred Stone, Michael's mother, wished he could relax a bit more and be that "free dreaming" little boy. On one occasion she attempted to talk to him and his father about this, but his dad quickly interrupted, smiled and said, "You want something, work for it!" All of Michael's vaults today seemed to be the reward for his hard work. If Michael Stone was surprised, excited or vain about clearing the bar at 17 feet, you couldn't tell. As soon as he landed on the inflated landing mat, and with the crowd on its feet, Michael immediately began preparing for his next attempt at flight. He seemed unaware of the fact that he had just beaten his personal best by three inches and that he was one of the final two competitors in the pole-vaulting event at the National Junior Olympics. When Michael cleared the bar at 17 feet 2 inches and 17 feet 4 inches, again he showed no emotion. As he lay on his back and heard the crowd groan, he knew the other vaulter had missed his final jump. He knew it was time for his final jump. Since the other vaulter had fewer misses, Michael needed to clear this vault to win. A miss would get him second place. Nothing to be ashamed of, but Michael would not allow himself the thought of not winning first place. He rolled over and did his routine of three finger-tipped push-ups. He found his pole, stood and stepped on the runway that led to the most challenging event of his 17-year-old life. The runway felt different this time. It startled him for a brief moment. Then it all hit him like a wet bale of hay. The bar was set at nine inches higher than his personal best. That's only one inch off the National record, he thought. The intensity of the moment filled his mind with anxiety. He began shaking the tension. It wasn't working. He became more tense. Why was this happening to him now, he thought. He began to get nervous. Afraid would be a more accurate description. What was he going to do? He had never experienced these feelings. Then out of nowhere, and from the deepest depths of his soul, he pictured his mother. Why now? What was his mother doing in his thoughts at a time like this? It was simple. His mother always used to tell him when you felt tense, anxious or even scared, take deep breaths. So he did. Along with shaking the tension from his legs, he gently laid his pole at his feet. He began to stretch out his arms and upper body. The light breeze that was once there was now gone. He carefully picked up his pole. He felt his heart pounding. He was sure the crowd did, too. The silence was deafening. When he heard the singing of some distant birds in flight, he knew it was his time to fly. As he began sprinting down the runway, something felt wonderfully different, yet familiar. The surface below him felt like the country road he used to dream about. Visions of the golden wheat fields seemed to fill his thoughts. When he took a deep breath, it happened. He began to fly. His take-off was effortless. Michael Stone was now flying, just like in his childhood dreams. Only this time he knew he wasn't dreaming. This was real. Everything seemed to be moving in slow motion. The air around him was the purest and freshest he had ever sensed. Michael was soaring like an eagle. It was either the eruption of the people in the stands or the thump of his landing that brought Michael back to earth. On his back with that wonderful hot sun on his face, he knew he could only see in his mind's eye the smile on his mother's face. He knew his dad was probably smiling too, even laughing. What he didn't know was that his dad was hugging his wife and crying. That's right: Bert "If You Want It, Work For It" Stone was crying like a baby in his wife's arms. He was crying harder than Mildred had ever seen before. She also knew he was crying the greatest tears of all: tears of pride. Michael was immediately surrounded by people hugging and congratulating him on the greatest accomplishment of his life. He later went on that day to clear 17 feet 6 1/2 inches: a National and International Junior Olympics record. With all the media attention and sponsorship possibilities, Michael's life would never be the same again. It wasn't just because he won the National Junior Olympics and set a new world record. And it wasn't because he had just increased his personal best by 9 l/2 inches. It was simply because Michael Stone is blind. bear out prove that (sth.) is true 证实 sweat vi. 出汗 n. 汗⽔ towel n. ⽑⼱，⼿⼱ pole-vault vi., n. 撑竿跳⾼ vault n. 撑竿跳⾼ (=pole vault);撑物跳跃 grace n. quality of being smooth and elegant, esp. in movement or structure 优美，优雅;雅致 gymnast n. 体操家，体操运动员 body builder n. 健美运动员 mere a. nothing more than 仅仅，只不过 fantasy n. 幻想 numerous a. very many 许多的，⽆数的 passion n. strong feeling, esp. of love 热情 detail n. small, particular fact or item 细节，琐碎的`事 recur▲ vi. come or happen again 再来;再发⽣ outrun (outran, outrun) vt. run faster or better than; go beyond 跑得⽐…快;跑得⽐…好;超过 eagle n. 鹰 coincide▲ vi. happen at the same time; be in agreement 同时发⽣;⼀致 coincide with 与…同时发⽣;与…⼀致 hard-core a. 顽固不化的 core n. the most important part 核⼼ realist n. a person who deals in a practical way with situations as they actually are 现实主义者 motto n. 格⾔，座右铭 work out go through a physical exercise session 体育锻炼，训练 weightlifting n. 举重(运动) alteinate▲ a. every other or second; happening by turns 交替的;轮流的 coach n.

新视野大学英语第三版第二册Unit5课文语法讲解新视野三版读写B2 U5 Text ASpend or save — The student's dilemma1 Do you feel as confused and manipulated as I do with this question, "ShouldI spend or should I save?" I think that the messages we get from our environment seem to defy common sense and contradict each other. The government tel s us to spend or we'l never get out of the recession. At the same time, they tel us that unless we save more, our country isin grave danger.Banks offer higher interest rates so we increasesavings. Then the same banks send us credit card offers so we can spend more.2 Here's another familiar example: If we don't pay our credit card bil on time, we get demanding, nasty emails from the credit card company saying something like: "Your failure to pay is unacceptable. Pay immediately or you'l be in trouble!" Then, as soon as we pay, we get a fol ow-up email in a charming tone tel ing us how valuable a customer we are and encouraging us to resume spending. Which depiction is correct: a failing consumer in trouble or a valued customer? The gap between these two messages is enormous.3 The paradox is that every day we get two sets of messages at odds with each other. One is the "permissive" perspective, "Buy, spend, get it now. You need this!" The other we could cal an "upright" message, which urges us, "Work hard and save. Suspend your desires. Avoid luxuries. Controlyour appetite for more than you truly need." This messagecomes to us from many sources: from school, from parents, even from political figures referring to "traditional values". Hard work, family loyalty, and the capacity to postpone desires are core American values that have made our country great.*4 But the opposite message, advertising's permissive message, is inescapable. Though sometimes disguised, the messages are everywhere we look: on TV, in movies on printed media and road signs, in stores, and on buses, trains and subways.Advertisements invade our daily lives. We are constantly surrounded by the message to spend, spend, spend. Someone recently said, "The only time you can escape advertising is when you're in your bed asleep!"5 It's been calculated that by the age of 18, the average American wil have seen 600,000 ads; by the age of 40, the total is almost one mil ion. Eachadvertisement is doing its utmost to influence our diverse buying decisions,from the breakfast cereal we eat to which cruise line we wil use for ourvacation. There is no shortage of ideas and things to buy! Now, of course, wedon't remember exactly what the products were, but the essential messageis cemented into our consciousness, "It's good to satisfy your desires. Youshould have what you want. You deserve the best. So, you should buy it —now!" A famous advertisement said it perfectly, "I love me. I'm a good friend tomyself. I do what makes me feel good. I derive pleasure fromnice things andfeel nourished by them. I used to put things off. Not anymore. Today I'l buynew ski equipment, look at new compact cars, and buy that camera I'vealways wanted. I live my dreams today, not tomorrow."6 What happens as we take in these contradictory but explicit messages? What are the psychological and social consequences of this campaign to control our spending habits? On one hand, we want morethings because we want to satisfy our material appetite. Most of us derivepleasure from treating ourselves. On the other hand, a little voice insideus echoes those upright messages: "Watch out, take stock of your life, don't letyour attention get scattered. Postpone your desires. Don't fal into debt.Wait! Retain control over your own life. It wil make you stronger."7 Anyway, many of the skil s you need as a successful student can be appliedto your finances. Consider your financial wel -beings a key ingredient of youruniversity education as money worries are extremely stressful anddistracting. They can make you feel terrible and hinder your ability to focus onyour prime objective: successful y completing your education.*8 How can you be a smart and educated consumer? Many schools,community organizations, and even some banks offer financial literacyclasses. Consider consulting with your school's financial aid office orseek input from your parents or other respected adults in setting up abudget. An additional option is finding a partner to help you stay on track andfind pleasure in the administration of your own financial affairs. Mostimportantly, if you find yourself getting into financial trouble, don't letyour ego get in your way; urgently get help with tackling your problem before itspins out of control and lands you in legal troubles.9 Al this wil help you become an educated consumer and saver. As you learnto balance spending and saving, you wil become the captain of your own ship,steering your life in a successful and productive direction throughthe choppy waters.Language Points：1 Do you feel as confused and manipulated as I do with this question, “Should Ispend or should I save?” (Para. 1)Meaning: When asking yourself whether you should spend or save, do you feel puzzledand control ed as I do?Meaning beyond words: According to the conventional concept, we are the master orthe boss of the money we have earned. It is up to us to decide how to use our money. However, the sentence gives us the hintthat we are actual y no longer in control of our money.2 I think that the messages we get from our environment seem to defy commonsense and contradict each other. (Para. 1)Meaning:In my opinion, the messages we get in our daily life about the question “ShouldI spend or should I save?” are against common sense and they often don’t agree witheach other.Usage note: defy, denydefy 和deny 都是及物动词，词形相近，但实际上两者词义有别，用法也不同。

It does not seem to be a villain. It is not very poisonous and it is present in the atmosphere in so small a quantity — only 0.034 percent — that it does us no harm.二氧化碳看上去不像一个恶棍。
它毒性不大，在大气层中的含量极小——只占0.034％——不会对我们造成任何伤害。
What's more, that small quantity of carbon dioxide in the air is essential to life. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and convert it into their own tissue, which serve as the basic food supply for all of animal life (including human beings, of course). In the process they liberate oxygen, which is also necessary for all animal life.再者，空气中的那一点点二氧化碳对生命至关重要。

大学英语精读第二册UnitFive讲解大学英语精读第二册Unit Five讲解导语：你玩过Yo-yo吗，下面是一篇关于Yo-yo的英语课文，欢迎大家学习!TEXTSeen through the eyes of a young friend Einstein was a simple, modest and ordinary man.The professor and the Yo-yoMy father was a close friend of Albert Einstein. As a shy young visitor to Einstein's home, I was made to feel at ease when Einstein said, "I have something to show you." He went to his desk and returned with a Yo-Yo. He tried to show me how it worked but he couldn't make it roll back up the string. When my turn came, I displayed my few tricks and pointed out to him that the incorrectly looped string had thrown the toy off balance. Einstein nodded, properly impressed by my skill and knowledge. Later, I bought a new Yo-Yo and mailed it to the Professor as a Christmas present, and received a poem of thanks.As boy and then as an adult, I never lost my wonder at the personality that was Einstein. He was the only person I knew who had come to terms with himself and the world around him. He knew what he wanted and he wanted only this: to understand within his limits as a human being the nature of the universe and the logic and simplicity in its functioning. He knew there were answers beyond his intellectual reach. But this did not frustrate him. He was content to go as far as he could.In the 23 years of our friendship, I never saw him show jealousy, vanity, bitterness, anger, resentment, or personal ambition. He seemed immune to these emotions. He was beyondany pretension. Although he corresponded with many of the world's most important people, his stationery carried only a watermark - W - for Woolworth's.To do his work he needed only a pencil only a pencil and a pad of paper. Material things meant nothing to him. I never knew him to carry money because he never had any use for it. He believed in simplicity, so much so that he used only a safety razor and water to shave. When I suggested that he try shaving cream, he said, "The razor and water do the job.""But Professor, why don't you try the cream just once?" I argued. "It makes shaving smoother and less painful."He shrugged. Finally, I presented him with a tube of shaving cream. The next morning when he came down to breakfast, he was beaming with the pleasure of a new, great discovery. "You know, that cream really works," he announced. "It doesn't pull the beard. It feels wonderful." Thereafter, he used the shaving cream every morning until the tube was empty. Then he reverted to using plain water.Einstein was purely and exclusively a theorist. He didn't have the slightest interest in the practical application of his ideas and theories. His E=mc2 is probably the most famous equation in history - yet Einstein wouldn't walk down the street to see a reactor create atomic energy. He won the Nobel Prize for his Photoelectric Theory, a series of equations that he considered relatively minor in importance, but he didn't have any curiosity in observing how his theory made TV possible.My brother once gave the Professor a toy, a bird that balanced on the edge of a bowl of water and repeatedly dunked its head in the water. Einstein watched it in delight, trying to deduce the operating principle. But be couldn't.The next morning he announced, "I had thought about that bird for a long time before I went to bed and it must work this way…" He began a ling explanation. Then he stopped, realizing a flaw in his reasoning. "No, I guess that's not it," he said. He pursued various theories for several days until I suggested we take the toy apart to see how it did work. His quick expression of disapproval told me he did not agree with this practical approach. He never did work out the solution.Another puzzle that Einstein could never understand was his own fame. He had developed theories that were profound and capable of exciting relatively few scientists. Yet his name was a household word across the civilized world. "I've had good ideas, and so have other men," he once said. "But it's been my good fortune that my ideas have been accepted."

思维导图在大学英语阅读教学中的应用——以《新视野大学英语读写教程2》Unit 5 Section A为例
思维导图在大学英语阅读教学中的应用——以《新视野大学英语读写教程2》Unit 5 Section A为例作者：董喜春来源：《校园英语》 2020年第37期文/董喜春【摘要】针对大学生英语阅读中文章篇章结构把握不清的问题，提出在英语教学中采用思维导图的方法来解决。
以《新视野大学英语读写教程2》中课文为例来说明思维导图在大学英语教学中的应用方法，该方法分为四步，这四步分别为，把握好文体特点、画文体脉络图、引导学生理清文章脉络和学生绘制思维导图。
【关键词】英语阅读；逻辑；思维导图【作者简介】董喜春(1980-)，女，汉族，陕西西安人，西京学院外国语学院，讲师，硕士，研究方向：英语语言与文化、大学英语教学方法研究。
【基金项目】该文章是校级教学改革《思维导图在英语读写教学中的应用研究》(JGYB1933)的阶段性成果。
一、引言分析我校大学英语四级考试结果，发现学生阅读失分较多，尤其是涉及文章的篇章结构的题目，失分特别多。
有关文章篇章结构的问题主要有：阅读时对语篇的宏观结构、上下文的衔接、逻辑不清。
针对这些问题，目前在大学英语阅读教学中采用产出导向 (POA)、翻转课堂、任务型教学法等方法，采取以上教学理论和方法有助于学生在词汇、句法、语法的正确运用，有助于提高学生的语言交际能力，但是不能有效解决学生在英语阅读中对英语语篇宏观结构、衔接、逻辑不清的问题。
为了解决学生在英语阅读宏观结构不清的问题，将组织性思维工具——思维导图引入大学英语阅读教学中通过图文并茂的方式帮助学生，构建可视化的文章思路结构脉络图，有助于帮助学生实现从发散性到系统化思维的培养和提升，从而帮助学生培养语篇宏观的结构思维能力。
二、思维导图概述思维导图又名心智图，是托东尼·博赞提出。
思维导图具有三个主要特征：第一，思维导图使用颜色；第二，思维导图从中心发散；第三，思维导图使用线条、符号、词汇和图像，遵循一套简单、基本、自然、易被大脑接受的规则。

unit 5教材分析
Unit5教材分析和教学设计思路
二 确定任务核心
新课程的基本理念是要走向生活，面向学生的生活实践和社会实践，教 学活动必须尊重学生已有的知识和经验，让学生以自主合作探究的学习方式 参与到教学活动中，让课堂教学充满创新活力和实践能力，放飞思维和想象， 让学生在课堂上获得充分的人身自由（走动，交谈，选择）和精神自由（即 心理的自由，是思维和想象的自由），让课堂不仅成为学生获得知识及体验 的殿堂更是学生舒展灵性的空间。 基于以上的理念，本课第一个环节，我设计了结合生活的话题，春光明 媚话春游，让学生结对谈论五一假期出游的打算。这一环节要用的基本语言 结构是be going to及be doing,这是学生已有的知识，另外旅游也是学生所具 备的生活经验，这也是我们设计教学活动是很重要的一部分课程资源，通过 同伴的交流进一步扩大了资源。 在第一个活动基础上 延伸出 本课的新目标语言if-clause+will，用来预 言各种打算的良好后果和思量 一些不良的后果，以便调整计划，做出最佳的 决定。在真实自然的交流中把新知识纳入原有的认知结构中，这时由于问题 的提出让学生有强烈的交流欲望 ，继而会积极主动地倾听模仿老师的新语言 并在原有知识和经验的基础上自我建构新知识，即活动二（Talk about decisions and consequences）。
Unit 5教材分析与教学设计思路
活动三继续活动二的意念功能即谈论决定及后果，但是话题转为：假 如五一假期天气下雨所安排的居家休闲活动。活动的设计同样基于新课程的 理念即课程由科学世界回归到生活世界。通过活动的安排让学生了解现实生 活的复杂性以及人们所作出的调整，从而培养学生认知世界的 全面性和应对 变化的能力。 活动四Listening Practice(Unit5 SectionA 1b,2b)放在一个大的听力背景 下即1b从参加晚会方的决定和后果考虑,2b从举办晚会方的安排，决定和后果 考虑，培养学生完整地了解生活中一件事情的方方面面，在知识的建构中学 会了思维和做事的方法，学会做人做事。 活动五Making a survey and a survey report,调查的问题是如果你得到 许多零花钱，你将会做什么？（What will you do if you get lots of pocket money?）学生进行六人一组的小组活动，连环提问并记录调查结果，使每个 成员都有机会调查，记录并报告调查结果的机会。 家庭作业Homework是一个开放性的写作练习“如果在我们的城市里多 种树将会怎样呢？（What will happy if we plant more trees in our city?）旨 在培养学生放眼外部世界关心生活环境，领悟我们与环境的关系，树立朴素 的环境观，从小事入手保护环境改变世界。学习能力方面培养学生的发散思 维
