Unit 1 AR1

This passage focus on the problem of searching jobs after graduation. The graduates always want to find an ideal job with higher salary and less work. But after trying several times, they give up and start to complain about the unfair of the society.

In the end the author concludes that if the graduates can not find an ideal job, they can take a temporary one.

Unit 2 AR1: Danger! Books may change your life

Reading is a life-changing activity. It helps us enter a new world and liberate us from the real world we come from; it aids us to get out of confusion in a material world and to discover the real meaning of life. Simply put, books are supremely influential in the way we live.

Home-run book might be the answer for the book that everyone should read. These books and others like them have helped me to discover the real meaning of my life, and helped me to get out of the confusion and meaninglessness of the real world.

Unit 2 AR2: They were alive and they spoke to me

Henry Miller made a lot struggle to obtain books when he was young, and then introduces the reason that makes a book live, that is the enthusiastic recommendation of one reader to another. In his eyes, books are one of the few things men cherished deeply, but if you lend it to others, it makes friends for you. He think the best way to read a book is to leave a book alone, but think as intensely as possible and if you decide to read, observe with what extraordinary acumen you read it and realize that very little of the books is really new to you.

Unit 3 AR1: Been there, done that, got the T-shirt

Different clothes have different functions. The author’s father’s old battle jacket is a reminder of a historical event. Originally, the clothes are purely functional. However, nowadays we have to make choices: dressing for comfort or dressing for fashion. Fashionistas dress for fashion at the expen se of comfort. What’s worse, some people choose clothes to impress others. Anyway, fashion can express our emotions and also give a sense of occasions.

After all, our clothes are indicative of our lives, the events, the emotions, the sense of nostalgia for yesterday’s innocence and the chastening, humbling reminder of who we are today.

Unit 3 AR2: Eco-jewellery: sea glass

Sea glass is popular among the jewellery collectors for several reasons. First, the creation of sea glass is a form of natural recycling. Second, sea glass becomes rarer than diamonds. This leads to its boom in the market. Third, sea glass is environmental-friendly, so the designers would like to put sea glass to use.

Gina Cowen became a sea glass jeweller in her 20s and 30s. While sea glass is disappearing, she is still on the hunt. Her designs were sold at Liberty London, but mostly she sells her jewellery to private customers.

With the decline of sea glass in supply there has arisen problem of reviving old habits of dumping glass into the sea. However, there is always a story behind sea glass and nothing can replace it.

Unit 4 AR1: The credit card trap

A credit card allows you to charge something immediately and then pay for the bill at a later date. Once a credit card has been issued, you can make

purchases within the credit limit A credit card with a limit of $100.00 enables you to pay for up to 100.00 worth of items. Every month, you will receive credit card statements that lists the charges you have made. You have to pay your bill in full by the due date. Otherwise, you have to pay interest or a finance charge which can be fairly high.

Unit 4 AR2: Look after yourself

This passage tell us that a girl learns how to make financial management from her father. When her eleventh birthday was coming, she wanted an unusual birthday present—a puppy. However, her easy-going father looked serious and showed her the expenditure they should pay. She was surprised to learn how many bills there were for things she took for granted.They should also keep some savings “for a rainy day”.

She worked out how much it would cost to feed a puppy. Then she decided to find some jobs to earn some money. She might have satisfied everyone in the family, thus she got the cutest puppy on her birthday. From this experience, she understood how to take financial responsibility for herself and her family.

Unit 5 AR1: Sex differences in English gossip rules

Researchers have found that men gossip as much as women and men spend much more time talking about themselves. However, men don’t admit they gossip, they define it as “exchanging information”.

The reason why female gossip actually sounds like gossip is that there seem to be three principal factors involved. Firstly, the tone rule. Women adopt a tone which is high and quick, while men gossip in unemotional manner. Secondly, the detail rule. For women, a detailed speculation about possible motives and causes, outcomes are crucial. However, men find all this detail boring, irrelevant and unmanly. Thirdly, the feedback rule. Female listeners are required to be at least as enthusiastic as speakers. However, men who respond in such a manner would be considered girly. For them, a suitable expletive is better to convey their surprise.

Unit 5 AR2: Marked: women in the workplace

Women constantly have to make choices about dress and appearance, which lead people to make judgments about them. A woman without a particular hairstyle is considered careless about how she looks and can be disqualified for many positions. Tight or revealing clothes send a message that the wearer wants to be attractive and that she is still available.

Light make-up calls attention to the wearer as someone who tries to be attractive without being alluring. A woman who takes her husband’s surname announces to the world that she is married and also that she is traditional and may be less herself. However, men do not have to make the same choices.

Unit 6 AR1: Winston Churchill

This passage tell us a great president of Britain, Winston Churchill. Churchill believed that he was destined to lead his country. When his country was threatened, he stand out. He fought as a soldier in World War I and led the country to victory in World War II. He was an instinctive, daring, often infuriating war leader. But he is also an inspiration. After victory was declared, the billboard said “Cheer Churchill, Vote Labour”, and that’s what people did. Britain could live on because of him, nothing could be greater than him.

1]?The joy of laughing at a funny story is universal, probably as old as language itself.?But, what is it that makes a story or a j o k e f u n n y? [2]?As one who has enjoyed humor since I first recognized it, I've?made an attempt to?explain and discuss humor with students in such diverse cultures as Latin America and China.?I've done some serious thinking about funny stories. It has been a labor of love[N]![3]?Why is it that several students in a class will fall out of their chairs laughing after I tell a joke while the rest of the students look as if I've just read the weather report?[N]?Obviously some people are more sensitive to humor than others.?And, we recognize that some people tell jokes very well while others struggle to say something funny.?We've all heard people say, "I like jokes, but I can't tell one well, and I can never remember them."?Some people have a better sense of humor than others just as some people have more musical talent, mathematical talent, etc. than others.?A truly funny person has a joke for every occasion, and when one is told, that triggers an entire?string?of jokes from that person's memory bank.[N]?A?humorless?person is not likely to be the most popular person in a group.?It is reasonable to say that the truly?humorous?individual is not only well liked, but is often the focus of attention in any gathering.[4]?Even some animals have a sense of humor.?My wife's mother often visited us for extended stays.[N]?She normally didn't like dogs, but she?fell in love with Blitzen[N]—a female Lab[N]?we had, and the relationship was?mutual.?Even when young, Blitzen would?tease?Grandma?by very?selectively?carrying one of her bedroom slippers into the living room where Grandma sat in her favorite, comfortable chair.?Blitzen?pranced?just?beyond the reach of?Grandma until Grandma was?tempted?to leave her chair to get the slipper from Blitzen.?When Grandma left her chair, Blitzen would quickly jump into the chair,?flashing?her Lab smile?from?sparkling?brown eyes which clearly said, "Aha, I fooled you again." [5]?Typical jokes or humorous stories have a three-part?anatomy?that is easily recognized.?First is the SETUP (or?setting), next is the BODY (or story line), and these are followed by the PUNCH LINE[N]?(an unexpected or surprise ending) which will make the joke funny if it contains some humor.?Usually all three parts are present, and each must be clearly presented[N].?It helps if the story/joke teller uses gestures and language which are well known to the audience. [6]?Humor, as a form of entertainment, can be analyzed in order to discover what makes a funny story or joke seem funny.?Here, for example, are some of the most common types of humor. They range from the most obvious humor to the more subtle types. [7]?"SLAP-STICK" is the most obvious humor.?Its language is simple, direct, and often makes fun of another person or group.?Slap-stick was and is the technique of the stand-up comedian[N]?and the?clown.?It appeals to all ages and all cultures.?Nearly every English-speaking?comedian?in this century has used the following joke in one form or another.?One man asks another, "Who was that lady I saw you with last night?"?The other replies, "That was no lady, that was my wife."The humor lies in the fact that the second man is saying that his wife is not a lady.In other words, she is not a refined woman.?The joke is no less funny because it is so often used.?The audience knows in advance what will be said, because it is classic humor, and any audience values it even more because of its?familiarity. [8]?Chinese "cross-talk" is a special type of slap-stick in which two Chinese comedians humorously discuss topics such as?bureaucrats, family problems, or other personal topics.?Cross-talk can be heard anywhere from small village stages to the largest Beijing theatres, and to radio and television.?It is clearly a traditional form of humor well understood by Chinese people. [9]?A PLAY ON WORDS is not so obvious as slap-stick, but it is funny because of?misused?or misunderstood language.?My favorite example is the story of three elderly gentlemen traveling by train in England.?As the train slowed for a

Each passage is followed by 4 questions or unfinished statements, and each question or unfinished statement is followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are to decide on the best choice by blackening the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. Passage One Mr Gordon is right that the second industrial revolution involved never-to-be-repeated changes. But that does not mean that driverless cars count for nothing. Messrs Erixon and Weigel are also right to worry about the West’s dismal recent record in producing new companies. But many old firms are not run by bureaucrats and have reinvented themselves many times over: General Electric must be on at least its ninth life. And the impact of giant new firms born in the past 20 years such as Uber, Google and Facebook should not be underestimated: they have all the Schumpeterian characteristics the authors admire. On the pessimists’ side the strongest argument relies not on closely watching corporate and investor behavior but rather on macro-level statistics on productivity. The figures from recent years are truly dismal. Karim Foda, of the Brookings Institution, calculates that labor productivity in the rich world is growing at its slowest rate since 1950. Total factor productivity (which tries to measure innovation) has grown at just 0.1% in advanced economies since 2004, well below its historical average. Optimists have two retorts. The first is that there must be something wrong with the figures. One possibility is that they fail to count the huge consumer surplus given away free of charge on the internet. But this is unconvincing. The official figures may well be understating the impact of the internet revolution, just as they downplayed the impact of electricity and cars in the past, but they are not understating it enough to explain the recent decline in productivity growth. Another, second line of argument that the productivity revolution has only just begun is more persuasive. Over the past decade many IT companies may have focused on things that were more “fun than fundamental” in Paul Krugman’s phrase.But Silicon Valley’s best companies are certainly focusing on things that change the material world.

为自己而写 从孩提时代，我还住在贝尔维尔时，我的脑子里就断断续续地转着当作家的念头，但直等到我高中三年级，这—一想法才有了实现的可能。在这之前，我对所有跟英文课沾边的事都感到腻味。我觉得英文语法枯燥难懂。我痛恨那些长而乏味的段落写作，老师读着受累，我写着痛苦。 弗利格尔先生接我们的高三英文课时，我就准备着在这门最最单调乏味的课上再熬上沉闷的一年。弗利格尔先生在学生中以其说话干巴和激励学生无术而出名。据说他拘谨刻板，完全落后于时代。我看他有六七十岁了，古板之极。他戴着古板的毫无装饰的眼镜，微微卷曲的头发剪得笔齐，梳得纹丝不乱。他身穿古板的套装，白衬衣领扣外的领带打得——丝不苟。他救着古板的尖下巴，古板的直鼻梁，说起话来—·本正经，字斟句酌，彬彬有礼，活脱脱一个橱稽的老古董。 我作好准备，打算在弗利格尔先生的班上一无所获地混上—·年，不少日子过去了，还真率出所料。后半学期我们学写随笔小品文。弗利格尔先生发下一张家庭作业纸，出了不少题供我们选择。像“暑假二三事”那样傻乎乎的题目倒是一个也没有，但绝大多数—样乏味。我把作文题带回家，——直没写，直到要交作业的前一天晚上。我躺在沙发上，最终不得不面对这一讨厌的功课，便从笔记本里抽出作文题目单粗粗—看。我的目光落在“吃意大利细面条的艺术”这个题目上。… 这个题目在我脑海里唤起了一连串不同寻常的图像。贝尔维尔之夜的清晰的回忆如潮水一般涌来，当时，我们大家——起围坐在晚餐桌旁——艾伦舅舅、我母亲、查理舅舅、多丽丝、哈尔舅舅——帕特舅妈晚饭做的是意大利细面条。那时意大利细面条还是很少听说的异国食品。多丽丝和我都还从来没吃过，在座的大人也是经验不足，没有—个吃起来得心应手的。艾伦舅舅家诙谐有趣的场景全都重现在我的脑海中，我回想起来，当晚我们笑作—团，争论着该如何地把面条从盘子上送到嘴里才算合乎礼仪。 突然我就想描述那…切，描述当时那种温馨美好的气氛，但我把它写下来仅仅是想白得其乐，而不是为弗利格尔先生而写。那是我想重新捕捉并珍藏在心中的一个时刻。我想重温那个夜晚的愉快。然而，照我希望的那样去写，就会违反我在学校里学的正式作文的种种法则弗利格尔先生也肯定会打它—个不及格。没关系。等我为自己写好了之后，我可以再为弗利格尔先生写点什么别的东西。 等我写完时已是半夜时分，再没时间为弗利格尔先生写——篇循规蹈矩、像模像样的文章了。第二天上午，我别无选择，只好把我为自己而写的贝尔维尔晚餐的故事交了上去。两天后弗利格尔先生发还批改过的作文，他把别人的都发了，·就是没有我的。我正准备着遵命—放学就去弗利格尔先生那儿挨训，却看见他从桌上拿起我的作文，敲了敲桌子让大家注意听。 “好了，孩子们，”他说。“我要给你们念一篇小品文。文章的题目是：吃意大利细面条的艺术。” 于是他开始念了。是我写的!他给全班大声念我写的文章。更不可思议的是，全班同学都在听着他念，而且听得很专心。有人笑出声来，接着全班都笑了，不是轻蔑嘲弄，而是乐乎乎地开怀大笑。就连弗利格尔先生也停顿了两三次，好抑制他那丝拘谨的微笑。我尽力不流露出得意的心情，但是看到我写的文章竟然能使别人大笑，我真是心花怒放。就在十——年级，可谓是最后的时刻，我找到了一个今生想做的事。这是我整个求学生涯中最幸福的——刻。弗利格尔先生念完后说道：“瞧，孩子们，这就是小品文，懂了没有。这才是一知道吗——这才是小品文的精髓，知道了没有。祝贺你，贝克先生。”他这番话使我沉浸 在十全十美的幸福之中

Unfortunately, not all these changes did good to the human society. Some of them have done serious damage to mankind and have been even predicted to destroy the whole world someday if out of control. In fact, mankind is not biologically programmed for violent behaviors like war.

大学英语语法教学初探 提要：英语语法的掌握是英语能力的基本功,而目前中国学生的英语语法的学习效果并不令人乐观。改进教学方法,有机整合语法内容,加强文化对比,进行有效的语法练习是改善英语语法教学的重要途径。 关键词:语法教学;有机整合;文化对比;语法练习 语法是语言赖以形成和发展的要素,是语言组织的纽带,它和词汇、语语音共同构成语言的基本要素。在英语教学中,语言的三要素都是学生要掌握的基础知识。其中语法是研究用词造句的规则体系,它是为培养技能,形成语言交际能力服务的,并且对高效率的交际起着制约的作用。因此教学中应重视语法教学,决不能排斥。 一、语法教学现状及其学习的重要性 目前教学中存在两种不利语法教学的现象:其中之一,由于受传统教学的影响,很多老师先强调理论,孤立地讲完语法规则后再让学生做一定的练习,这样就形成了教师滔滔不绝地讲,学生辛辛苦苦地练,而最终的结果是学生笔试能力、做题能力提高了,相反口试能力,语言交际能力却差了;第二种现象,由于受教学改革的影响,很多老师在果断的摒弃旧的教学理念的同时又步入了另一个极端:强调注重人们语言学习的自然规律,英语课上大部分时间进行口语操练,废弃语法。即使有的教师会在上课时讲解语法,但大多采用的是那种就事论事的阻断式、割裂式的讲解和翻译模式,往往给学生造成一种“雾里看花”的感觉。致使许多学生到了大学之后其语法知识薄弱、语言运用能力差。他们所写、所译的东西错漏百出,让人啼笑皆非。在正确推进大学英语教学改革的今天,语法教学的薄弱使得提高学生的英语运用能力便只是空中楼阁。因此“让语法教学重返课堂”的呼声在英语教学上越来越强烈。对中国学生学习英语而言,他们毕竟没有使用目的语的环境,那么他们就很难及时、准确地辨别母语和目的语之间的语义特征和差异。因此就中国学生而言,希望不学语法便能牢固地掌握英语,提高其英语运用能力是不切实际的。换言之,在大学英语教学过程中,重视语法教学,改善语法教学是提高学生英语运用能力必不可少的。 二、关于语法教学的一些想法 很多学生进入大学之后,意识到了缺乏语法知识对其英语提高的限制,便买来语法书,夜以继日地研读,结果发现越来越糊涂。要想在短时间让学生加深对语法现象的了解,使学生对语法的认识豁然开朗,大学英语教师可从以下方面着手: 首先,有机整合语法内容。为了让学生能完整地了解语法的基础知识,在原理相通的情况下,删除一些过于琐碎的部分,采用联系、归纳、演绎、对比等多种方法将语法内容进行适当的有机整合。例如:将主语从句、宾语从句及表语从句联系起来讲解;将定语从句和同位语从句一同加以讲解及区别;将动名词和现在分词
