1. In the passage “They were alive and they spoke to me.” Why does the author su ggest resisting your impulses and not opening a book as soon as you get it?
A: There are countless books in the world, but our time is limited. Thus, we should calm down and choice the right one that worth to read.
B: Because the author think that we should read as little as possible not as much as possible.What is important in reading isn’t quantity but what we are thinking.So the book you got it just now may be not necessary to be read.
C: In many times we read a book just because of our inner curiosity and impulse.After finishing reading it,we will find that it is boring and form of wasting time.However,if we can manage to resist our impulse before opening it,we can avoid these troubles.
D: The most difficult thing in life is to learn to do only what is strictly advantageous to one’s welfare,strictly vita.Reading more books failure to prove that you get more.Think over carefully whether the book is essential to me before reading it.If you say”yes”,open and enjoy it;if you say”no”,just discard it.
E: Because the author hold that one should read few but good. Just a little of the books we have read are valuable to us. So, before reading, resist your impulses and ask yourself earnestly if it be absolutely necessary to read. 作者认为读书不在多而在精。我们读过的书有很多都是我们并不需要的。所以读一本书之前，抑制住自己的冲动，仔细琢磨它是否有必要。

1. Do you think workplaces are usually sexist? Explain it in the following aspects: hairstyle, clothing and make-up, word endings like ess and ette, titles in application forms, married women’s surnames, etc.
A: No, I think it’s because they care too much about their appearance. Everyone has its own style so just go along that road and be yourself, everything is OK.
B: If man do not make-up, that’s ok while women be considered as disrespect. Yet no make-up at all doesn’t mean it is unmarked. Some men even see it as a hostile refusal to please them.
C: It’s unfair. Each choice has its own marked, which meant that women is real ly disrespect. Even is multiple name marked.
D: Yes. The range of women's hairstyles is staggering, but if a woman's hair has no particular style, this in itself is taken as a statement that she doesn't care how she looks—an eloquent message that can disqualify a woman for many positions.
E: Female usually wear make-up. And different degrees of make-up have different meanings
2. Do you think languages are sexist? Illustrate it with the examples given in the passage: word endings like ess and ette, titles in application forms, married women’s surnames, etc.
A: A woman who checks the box for "Mrs." or "Miss" communicates not only whether she has been married but also that she has conservative tastes in forms of address, and probably other conservative values as well.
B: Yes,I think.For example,the word actress.Most people think actresses worry about their looks, and women who are actors worry about the characters they are playing.
C: Checking "Ms." declines to let on about marriage (whereas "Mr." declines nothing since nothing was asked), but it also marks the woman who checks it on her form as either liberated or rebellious, depending on the attitudes and assumptions of the one making the judgment.
D: Most application forms now give four choices for titles. Men have one to choose—"Mr."—so their choice carries no meaning other than to say they are male. But women must choose among three, each of them marked.
E: For example, doctor is for male, doctorette is for female. Poet is for male, poetess is for female. And actor is for male while actress is for female.
Unit 1 Men and women’s prejudices Part I Read the following passage aloud. The very language we use to discuss men’s roles (i.e., deadbeat dads) shows a lack of appreciation for the majority of men who quietly yet proudly fulfill their family responsibilities. We almost never hear the term “working father,” and it is rare that calls for more workplace flexibility are considered to be for men as much as for women. Our society acts as if family obligations are not as important to fathers as they are to mothers —as if career satisfaction is what a man’s life is all about. Even more insulting is the recent media trend of regarding at-home wives as “status symbols” — like an expensive car — flaunted by the supposedly few men who can afford such a luxury. The implication is that men with at-home wives have it easier than those whose wives work outside the home because they have the “luxury” of a full-time housekeeper. In reality, however, the men who are the sole wage earners for their families suffer a lot of stresses. The loss of a job — or even the threat of that happening — is obviously much more difficult when that job is the sole source of income for a family. By the same token, sole wage earners have less flexibility when it comes to leaving unsatisfying careers because of the loss of income such a job change entails. In addition, many husbands work overtime or second jobs to make more money needed for their families. For these men, it is the family that the job supports that makes it all worthwhile. It is the belief that having a mother at home is important to the children, which makes so many men gladly take on the burden of being a sole wage earner. Part II. TOPIC Men and women’s prejudices Section One Each of the students will be asked one qu estion on the topic “Men and women’s prejudices and roles”. 1.What’s the division of labor like in your family? In my family, my father is responsible for the heavy and tired work like clean drain, garage, etc., the mother is responsible for some of the common household chores, such as cooking, washing clothes, cleaning, etc.I am responsible for helping my mother to do the housework, so dad is hard and tired. 1.Many people hold the view that men are different from women in many ways. What’s your opinion about it? Men and women are different. In the relationship, for example, men are more rational, while women are more emotional. And because the body structure is different, the responsibility of the men and women is different also, men generally responsible for the breadwinner, women generally responsible for providing a comfortable home. 1.How to be a good father?

U1 TOPIC 1 Famous Universities 1.What kind of universities are good universities in your eyes? First of all, it should have a strong studying atmosphere. I hope students there can talk about their own opinions with freedom. Secondly, the teachers should be high standard and responsible. Then, the teaching equipment should be good, which will contribute to our study. 2.Do you think universities should try their best to provide their students with more scholarships? Why or why not? I don’t think more scholarships are necessary. Merit-based(基于优秀的；以业绩为基础的)scholarships, which are mainly awarded by universities, aim to encourage the students to learn more. It’s a motivation, or a reputation. Students who have financial problems could apply for need-based scholarships. So it’s not necessary for universities to provide more scholarships. 3.Which is more important in your college life, study or working experience? Why? In my opinion, we students should put study in the first place. Only by learning enough knowledge and skills now can we get a good job in the future. Our main task is to lay a solid(可靠的；坚实的) foundation for the future. So, it’s out of question that study is more important in college life. 4.If you had the opportunity to further your study in famous universities either at home or abroad, which would you choose？Why? T o be honest, I’d like to go abroad. First, I want to broaden my horizon. I have been dreaming about something quite different. Second, the academic atmosphere is freer abroad. Finally, I hope to meet more friends from all over the world. So, if possible, I’d like to go out to experience the study life there. 5.What is the aim for your college life？Explain. Above all, it’s beyond question that I want to acquire the knowledge and skills I expected. We can surely gain some working and even social experience. But they should not be our main aim. We should respect our university, the last place from where we get system education. So, my aim for college life is to learn as much as I can. 6.Do you think having a part-time job might affect your academic performance? Why or why not? Personally I think it will. It’s certain that taking a part-time job will occupy some study time. Study is not just doing homework. It requires many practices. Having a part-time job may affect our further study and our academic performance. Section Two Please have a group discussion on the following topic: What can make a university famous? Please give as many examples as possible. In my view, a famous university should have excellent teachers、tutors、professors and all of them and the managements should be responsible for their students.
