3. Teaching Procedures:

3.1 Lead-in Activities

Step 1. Warm-up activities

Ask Ss to listen to a song and fill in the missing words in the lyrics.

Have Ss work in pairs. One student asks the other the questions in Opener, the other answers. Then switch roles.

Method: PPT, communicative approach.

Step 2: Discussion about the topic

Introduce the topic of the unit to Ss either in English or Chinese: Sometimes people buy things just for the purpose of showing that they are richer, or have better taste than others. Expensive brand-name goods can serve this purpose, and are often wanted precisely because they are expensive. Whether spending money in this way is good, bad or simply silly is something we are going to explore.

Method: Using task-based language teaching method, communicative approach.

3.2 Global reading

Step 1. Approaching the theme

Ask Ss to take a look at the Culture Notes, or ask them to do some further reading before class about the idiom “keep up with the Joneses”, its origins and its social impact, etc.

Guide Ss to explore the text to fide the meaning and origin of the expression “keep up with the Joneses”, how this phenomenon came into being, and what we should do to rid ourselves of the pressure of keeping up with the Joneses.

Method: PPT; communicative approach.

Step.2 Analyzing the text organization

The teacher tells students that the text can be divided into three parts which have been given in the Text Organization. Then students should summarize the main idea of each part and compare notes with each other.

Method: skimming and scanning, communicative approach

3.3 Detailed Reading

3.3.1 Procedure

1) Students are asked to read the passage carefully again and for each paragraph (sometimes

two-three paragraphs), invite students to answer questions related difficult sentences and understanding of each paragraph.

2) Help Ss find out the good usage in the text and underlined them.

3) Learn new words in details.

Purpose: Further understand the text and train scanning ability to learn difficult sentence structures as well as new words and expressions.

Method:Reading the text together; Using task-based language teaching method, reading approach, communicative approach, grammar-translation approach.

Step 1. Questions related difficult sentences and understanding of each paragraph. Paras.2

Q. Where does the phrase “Keeping up with the Joneses” come from?

A: It comes from a cartoon strip of the same title launched by Pop Momand in 1913.

Para.3&4

Q: Why were we not aware of what the Joneses were doing prior to the late 1880s?

A: Prior to the late 1880s, mass media was not born. We were only concerned about making our own living.

Para.4

Q: What was the ready solution provided by magazines in order for us to catch up with the Joneses?

A: The ready solution was to buy products that were advertised.

Para.9

Q: Where do true happiness and joy come from, if they are not anything money can buy?

A: True happiness and joy come from within.

Paras.10

Q: What are we supposed to do to stop keeping up with the Joneses?

A: Instead of buying into the message that we’re not good enough, we should have positive self-regard. We should realize we don’t have to buy things to impress others.

3.3.2 Language Focus

3.3.2.1 Difficult sentences:

1) I’d love to say that need vanished when the last episode of that comic strip ran, but alas, it seems to have only gotten worse. (Para. 2)

I would like to say that need disappeared when the comic strip came to an end, but it seems that things have turned from bad to worse instead.

我多么想说，随着最后一集连环漫画的结束，这一心态也不复存在了。可是，唉，情况似乎

变得更糟。

2) Prior to the late 1880s, most of us were so busy trying to make a living that we didn’t care what the Joneses were doing, nor did we know, for that matter. (Para. 4)

Before the late 1880s, most of us were bu sy trying to make a living. We didn’t care what the Joneses were doing, and we didn’t know either.

19世纪80年代末以前，我们多数人都在忙于生计，既不关心、也不知道邻居们在做些什么。3) And much of that assessment was, and still is, based on a perceived lack of things we’re told we should want or have. (Para. 4)

And much of that evaluation was, and still is, based on a feeling that we are short of things we ought to have because of the messages from the mass media.

从过去直至现今，很大程度上这种认识源自一种缺失感，即感觉上与别人相比，缺少了一些该要或该有的东西。

4) Because ultimately, you decide if you’re going to buy into this idea that you’re not good enough. (Para. 7)

Because in the end, you determine whether you’re going to accept the notion that you’re not good enough.

因为最终是否接受你还不够好这一想法，由你自己说了算。

5) So it’s time to take some pressure off your self and stop trying to keep up with the Joneses — or anyone else for that matter. (Para. 8)

So it’s time to rid yourself of the pressure/free yourself from the pressure and stop trying to keep up with the Joneses. Nor should you try to keep up with anyone else.

所以，现在你该卸去你身上的压力了，不要再跟邻居攀比，也不要跟其他任何人攀比。

6) If you can’t put a cap on it, you’re chasing the wind. (Para. 9)

If you can’t put a limit on what you desire, you are undertaking a meaningless task that will lead you nowhere.

如果你不能设定一个上限，你便是在追风。

7) Think of the moments you look back on as your fondest memories. Would you trade those for a pile of cash? (Para. 9)

Think of the moments you look back on as your warmest memories. Would you exchange them for a pile of cash?

想一想回顾起来是最美好的记忆。你愿意拿它们去换一堆钱吗？

综合能力水平测试 (时间：150分钟分值：150分) 第Ⅰ卷阅读题一、现代文阅读(9分，每小题3分) [2014·昆明市调研测试]阅读下面的文字，完成1～3题。墨法思想与秦的富强韩毓海华夏文明第一次系统、深刻地进行自我批评，从而展开一场文明自我更新的思想大解放运动，这主要就体现在战国时代墨家和法家的思想中。墨法学说，可谓此后一切中国改革、变法思想的源泉。墨法两家，成于魏，归于秦。墨翟、孟胜、吴起、商鞅这些人之所以艰辛辗转，四处碰壁，这主要就是由于当时“魏康楚富，齐淫吴巧”，即发达地区民风奢华，文明积习太深，听不进批评意见，更不愿展开自我批评，特别是墨子所倡导的“艰苦奋斗”这一条，在文明发达的地区，非但难行，而且难听。能够接受墨法思想的，最终证明是被文明核心区视为“戎狄”的秦。正因为秦在七国之中开化最迟，尚不存在六国那样庞大的既得利益阶层、贵族世家集团，因此，墨法“官无常贵，而民无终贱”“有为则上，无能则下”的平等政治主张，方才能够在秦地得以实行。正因为贵族、世家的力量还没有形成，正因为“不党(党：偏私)父兄，不偏富贵，不嬖(嬖：宠幸)颜色”乃是秦的民风，以至“王亦不爱其家”，故“上同而下不周比(周比：结党营私)”“王子犯法，与庶民同罪”的“户籍－连坐”制度，亦方才能够在秦地顺利推进。而更为重要的是，正因为秦开化最迟，百姓

极不善言辞文饰，不存在一个靠巧言夸色、舞文弄墨发达起来的智识阶级，故商鞅那一套以“农战”立国的思想，方能在秦地大受欢迎，吴起自鲁赴魏，又去魏适楚，而商鞅亦自中原最发达的魏亡命入秦，他们所献出的强国之策，首先就是对华而不实，只说不练的中原文明弊端的诊断和分析，在文明反思的基础上，他们方才转而倡导一种埋头苦干、只练不说的新文化品质。于是，开化最迟、民风淳朴的戎狄秦地，便这样成为他们培植新文明的试验田。这是秦人艰苦奋斗精神的起源，这更是秦走向富强的动力。商鞅在《商君书·农战》中，曾比较“境外”的秦地与“境内”的中原文明。他认为由于中原地区文明发达，方才养成了盘根错节的贵族世家势力，方才铸成了导致阶级分化的富豪大贾集团，方才重用巧言令色，只说不练的智识阶层。而此三者具备，固可谓文明之成就，但也却正是“求荣取辱”“政怠宦成”的开端，是“人亡政息”——即国家危亡的征兆，是文明走向异化的开始。作为“戎狄”的秦，之所以能据天下之雄图，最终统摄四海，扫荡群雄，这就是秦人的生活朴素、务实使然，秦人正是以朴素的“又战斗来又生产”、以南泥湾开荒般的“农战”精神，最终战胜了中原文明之骄奢淫逸。秦的改革蓝图，其实就来自中原精英对于自身文明弊端的自我批评，这种自我批评，最终演化成“西戎”之秦对于中原文明所进行的“武器的批判”，秦王扫六合，乃是中国文明艰苦奋斗精神的第一次胜利、中华民族第一次自我更新。《荀子·疆国》亦曾赞美秦的朴素民风说：“其百姓朴，其声乐不流污，其服不佻”，又说“其百吏肃然，莫不恭俭、敦敬、忠信”。荀子观察到的，恰是百年之后，中华文明在秦更生的基础。这个主张艰苦奋斗的新文明，就是墨法政治理想的高度实现。
