"In the past we waited for a day off for Children's Day. But this time, we just wish our classes could start as normal on June 1."For 13-year-old Wang Zhen from the Mianzhu Middle School, his holiday wish was to see his mom again.The boy has become quieter since losing his mother in the earthquake."She was always nagging(唠叨) and sometimes beat me. But I know she did it because she loved me."When Zhou Lin, his psychologist, told him "you can pretend I'm your mom and give me a hug," Wang threw himself into her arms and cried.To children outside the quake zone, this was maybe their first Children's Day when rather than receiving gifts they instead gave them.In Yushan county of Jiangxi province, 11-year-old Li Jing cut her waist-long hair that had taken her five years to grow and sold it for 5 yuan."My family isn't rich, but I wanted to do something for the other children," she said.Children around the world have also been eager to help the children of Sichuan.56. Why did Yi Jianguo stand on a pile of rubble on June 1?A. He was a rescue soldier from Chengdu.B. He meant to mourn his lost daughter.B. He was planning to save his daughter. D. He was a teacher in that school.57. Why did they four boys who were playing basketball say they wanted to go to school as usualon this Children's Day?A. Because they got tired from playing basketball.B. Because they wanted one day off.C. Because they didn’t want to playD. Because they were missing their previous school life.58. Which of the following is not mentioned in this passage?A. Li Jing tried her best to help the children suffering from the terrible earthquake.B. Wang Zhen’s late mother was very strict with him in the past.C. Children out of the quake zone were excited to get various gifts for their own festival.D. A great deal of help also arrived in quake zone from abroad.59. What can be the best title for this passage?A. An Unusual Children’s DayB. Celebrating Children’s DayC. Gifts For Children’s DayD. Exciting Children’s DayBWhen computer salesman Li Guang and his girlfriend Huang Minxia saw on TV the destruction caused by the unexpected earthquake, they quickly filled their car with bottled water and instant noodles and drove more than 160 miles to lend a hand."It's a small car, but we just wanted to help," said Li, from Chongqing, a city next to hardest-hit Sichuan province. Donations(捐赠) are flooding in, more money than charities(慈善) in China collected all of last year, and so are volunteers.In the week since the quake, donations have totaled $1.3 billion — 85 percent raised within China.Many, like Li, are taking advantage of growing private car ownership and a new, expanding highway system to join the line of government and army assistance toward the epicenter.Across the disaster region, thousands of cars decorated with large handwritten signs— "Hardship comes from one direction, help comes from everywhere" and "For the people, for the Beijing Olympics" — were coming from as far as the capital, Beijing, more than 900 miles away.Private cars crowded so thickly on roads that the police set up donation drop-off points outside cities and towns to clear the way for army and government assistance. People living in tents along the roads posted handwritten signs asking for urgently needed items — water, rice, vegetables. Cars paused to hand out a box or two and then drove on.Instead of waiting for government-organized charity drives, people quickly acted on their own. Bank account(银行帐户) numbers for making earthquake donations flashed on Web logs and mobile phones. Blood donation centers were overwhelmed(淹没) with offers and began asking citizens to register(登记) in advance."People are really united this time, and they're acting on their own without waiting to be asked. It sounds corny, but we're taught in schools and from our parents about helping others," said Ge Jian, the company's general manager.60. What did Li Guang and his girlfriend Huang Minxia intended to do soon after the earthquake?A. They intended to help the victims in the quake-hit areas.B. They were on the way to a pleasant journey in Sichuan.C. They were told to do something for the disaster.D. They wanted to find their friends in the epicenter.61. What does the underlined word “corny” most probably mean?A. out of dateB. heart-brokenC. funnyD. disappointing62. According to the passage, all the following statements are true EXCEPT____?A. The good road system made it possible for more private car owners to rush to help.B. The local people in the quake zone were short of food and drinks.C. More money was collected from overseas than within China for the earthquake.D. People across China were taking active part in the rescue work.63. Why did Blood donation centers advised people to register ahead of time?A. Because they were expecting more money rather than blood.B. Because they had collected enough blood for the disaster.C. Because they were ready to go the epicenter and they were much too busy.D. Because too many people were offering to donate blood.CFor years, investors(投资者) have been trying to make money on minerals and oil found in the Sahara. But some three decades ago, scientists discovered another natural resource running below the dry dusty earth—water.In the early 1980s, Libyan President(利比亚总统) Moammar Gadhafi decided to pump this unlikely desert resource to Libya. More than 20 years later, a pipe (管道) big enough to pass a truck runs below the desert, carrying water to Libyan coastal cities.When people in Tripoli, Benghazi or Sirte turn on their faucets(水龙头), their water comes from deep under the desert and hundreds of kilometers away. This water is saved from tens of thousands of years ago when the region had a lot more rain. It sank deep into the desert and is now being pulled out by this pipe project.But with the Earth's rising temperature, the desert is now mostly unlivable. Saharan communities live in about two percent of the desert, near oases(绿洲).Children in the oasis village of Timia, Niger(几内亚), at the southern edge of the Sahara desert fill their containers(容器) every morning. The mountain village gets enough water to grow fruit year round.Brothers Aruba and Alison say their grandfather's fruit farm was the first in their village. They sell oranges and mangoes to tourists for 20 cents each. They also sell dates, raisins, and grapefruits.Theirs is the only mechanical water well(机械水井) in the village. During the hottest months, the water level goes down, but they say they still manage to water the garden. Even during the country's droughts in the early 1970s and in 2005, the garden and family survived.The brothers had not heard about the Libyan water pipe project. They hope this does not mean their garden will get less water in the coming years.Libyan water scientists say the pipe network and the Saharan underground water can last for the next 50 years.64. What used some investors to get from the Sahara desert?A. FruitsB. Underground waterC. Oil and mineralsD. Farm fields.65. What does “unlivable” in the fourth paragraph mean in this passage?A. unlikelyB. not fit for livingC. incredibleD. extremely hot66. We can learn from this passage that “dates” is ________.A. a special dayB. a placeC. some kind of fruitsD. a local farmer’s name67. This passage mainly tells us that _________.A. It’s pretty easy to grow fruit trees in the Sahara desert.B. People are doing everything possible to find and use the water in the desert.C. Water is of great importance for the people living in the coastal areas in Libya.D. The Saharan underground water can last for the next 50 years.IV. 翻译练习1.有没有什么问题你们不懂的？2.星期六在会上讲话的那个学生是我们班长。

"In the past we waited for a day off for Children's Day. But this time, we just wish our classes could start as normal on June 1."For 13-year-old Wang Zhen from the Mianzhu Middle School, his holiday wish was to see his mom again.The boy has become quieter since losing his mother in the earthquake."She was always nagging(唠叨) and sometimes beat me. But I know she did it because she loved me." When Zhou Lin, his psychologist, told him "you can pretend I'm your mom and give me a hug," Wang threw himself into her arms and cried.To children outside the quake zone, this was maybe their first Children's Day when rather than receiving gifts they instead gave them.In Yushan county of Jiangxi province, 11-year-old Li Jing cut her waist-long hair that had taken her five years to grow and sold it for 5 yuan."My family isn't rich, but I wanted to do something for the other children," she said.Children around the world have also been eager to help the children of Sichuan.56. Why did Yi Jianguo stand on a pile of rubble on June 1?A. He was a rescue soldier from Chengdu.B. He meant to mourn his lost daughter.B. He was planning to save his daughter. D. He was a teacher in that school.57. Why did they four boys who were playing basketball say they wanted to go to school as usualon this Children's Day?A. Because they got tired from playing basketball.B. Because they wanted one day off.C. Because they didn’t want to playD. Because they were missing their previous school life.58. Which of the following is not mentioned in this passage?A. Li Jing tried her best to help the children suffering from the terrible earthquake.B. Wang Zhen’s late mother was very strict with him in the past.C. Children out of the quake zone were excited to get various gifts for their own festival.D. A great deal of help also arrived in quake zone from abroad.59. What can be the best title for this passage?A. An Unusual Children’s DayB. Celebrating Children’s DayC. Gifts For Children’s DayD. Exciting Children’s DayBWhen computer salesman Li Guang and his girlfriend Huang Minxia saw on TV the destruction caused by the unexpected earthquake, they quickly filled their car with bottled water and instant noodles and drove more than 160 miles to lend a hand. "It's a small car, but we just wanted to help," said Li, from Chongqing, a city next to hardest-hit Sichuan province. Donations(捐赠) are flooding in, more money than charities(慈善) in China collected all of last year, and so are volunteers.In the week since the quake, donations have totaled $1.3 billion — 85 percent raised within China.Many, like Li, are taking advantage of growing private car ownership and a new, expanding highway system to join the line of government and army assistance toward the epicenter. Across the disaster region, thousands of cars decorated with large handwritten signs— "Hardship comes from one direction, help comes from everywhere" and "For the people, for the Beijing Olympics" — were coming from as far as the capital, Beijing, more than 900 miles away.Private cars crowded so thickly on roads that the police set up donation drop-off points outside cities and towns to clear the way for army and government assistance. People living in tents along the roads posted handwritten signs asking for urgently needed items — water, rice, vegetables. Cars paused to hand out a box or two and then drove on.Instead of waiting for government-organized charity drives, people quickly acted on their own. Bank account(银行帐户) numbers for making earthquake donations flashed on Web logs2and mobile phones. Blood donation centers were overwhelmed(淹没) with offers and began asking citizens to register(登记) in advance."People are really united this time, and they're acting on their own without waiting to be asked. It sounds corny, but we're taught in schools and from our parents about helping others," said Ge Jian, the company's general manager.60. What did Li Guang and his girlfriend Huang Minxia intended to do soon after the earthquake?A. They intended to help the victims in the quake-hit areas.B. They were on the way to a pleasant journey in Sichuan.C. They were told to do something for the disaster.D. They wanted to find their friends in the epicenter.61. What does the underlined word “corny” most probably mean?A. out of dateB. heart-brokenC. funnyD. disappointing62. According to the passage, all the following statements are true EXCEPT____?A. The good road system made it possible for more private car owners to rush to help.B. The local people in the quake zone were short of food and drinks.C. More money was collected from overseas than within China for the earthquake.D. People across China were taking active part in the rescue work.63. Why did Blood donation centers advised people to register ahead of time?A. Because they were expecting more money rather than blood.B. Because they had collected enough blood for the disaster.C. Because they were ready to go the epicenter and they were much too busy.D. Because too many people were offering to donate blood.CFor years, investors(投资者) have been trying to make money on minerals and oil found in the Sahara. But some three decades ago, scientists discovered another natural resource running below the dry dusty earth—water.In the early 1980s, Libyan President(利比亚总统) Moammar Gadhafi decided to pump this unlikely desert resource to Libya. More than 20 years later, a pipe (管道) big enough to pass a truck runs below the desert, carrying water to Libyan coastal cities.When people in Tripoli, Benghazi or Sirte turn on their faucets(水龙头), their water comes from deep under the desert and hundreds of kilometers away. This water is saved from tens of thousands of years ago when the region had a lot more rain. It sank deep into the desert and is now being pulled out by this pipe project.But with the Earth's rising temperature, the desert is now mostly unlivable. Saharan communities live in about two percent of the desert, near oases(绿洲).Children in the oasis village of Timia, Niger(几内亚), at the southern edge of the Sahara desert fill their containers(容器) every morning. The mountain village gets enough water to grow fruit year round.Brothers Aruba and Alison say their grandfather's fruit farm was the first in their village. They sell oranges and mangoes to tourists for 20 cents each. They also sell dates, raisins, and grapefruits.Theirs is the only mechanical water well(机械水井) in the village. During the hottest months, the water level goes down, but they say they still manage to water the garden. Even during the country's droughts in the early 1970s and in 2005, the garden and family survived.The brothers had not heard about the Libyan water pipe project. They hope this does not mean their garden will get less water in the coming years.Libyan water scientists say the pipe network and the Saharan underground water can last for the next 50 years.64. What used some investors to get from the Sahara desert?A. FruitsB. Underground waterC. Oil andminerals D. Farm fields.65. What does “unlivable” in the fourth paragraph mean in this passage?A. unlikelyB. not fit for livingC. incredibleD. extremely hot66. We can learn from this passage that “dates” is ________.A. a special dayB. a placeC. some kind of fruitsD. a local farmer’s name67. This passage mainly tells us that _________.A. It’s pretty easy to grow fruit trees in the Sahara desert.B. People are doing everything possible to find and use the water in the desert.C. Water is of great importance for the people living in the coastal areas in Libya.D. The Saharan underground water can last for the next 50 years.IV. 翻译练习1.有没有什么问题你们不懂的？2.星期六在会上讲话的那个学生是我们班长。

Unit 3 Schools and UniversitiesThinking AheadStudents are asked to discuss the following questions in groups. The reference answers for the questions are offered below:1. Do you like your university? Describe your dream university.Well, I love it. It is awesome! I’ve never had so much fun or learned so much about a topic, or most importantly, learned so much about myself. I’ve met so many great and diverse people and been in situations that I never thought I’d ever be in. I would not trade my years at the university for anything.My dream university is the one where I can breathe the cool air and chat with my easy-going friends about our common interest freely. The beautiful campus with a lake and extensive parkland greenery is a must. Moreover, I dreamed of joining numerous student clubs and other organizations which demonstrate the breadth of student interests in academic and career areas, social issues, athletics and much more. In my opinion, studying in a university is an experience that goes far beyond lectures, and the academic life should be dynamic and vibrant（生气勃勃的）.2. How do you make use of the facilities and resources in your university?My university boasts numerous facilities including library, gym, pub, etc, among which the library and gym are the two which I make full use of. As for me, study is still the priority. The library facility includes traditional reading areas where silence is the rule; there, it is less likely to be distracted by the noise outside. There are also areas designated for group study where you can communicate and interact with your colleagues for group projects. Also, the enormous collections of the books help to broaden my horizon and the library staff provide us with the effective Internet searching strategy, which enables me to study independently.Moreover, being in good physical health is critical to maintaining good academic standing as well as quality of life. The campus gym offers enormous facility with spaces and programs for students at all levels of physical skill and activity. I go to gym three times a week to get good workout. It helps me to relax and release the stress, and concentrate easily on my academic study.Part I Video TimeIn this part, students will have 2 tasks to accomplish.Task 1In task 1, students will watch a video clip about the University of Oxford, one of the leading universities in the world, and then do the exercises as required. Before watching, students are supposed to read the words, expressions and cultural notes related to the video.TranscriptThe University of OxfordOxford is the oldest university in the English-speaking world, a city that lives and breathes education, a place where you can think rigorously, where you can grow intellectually, an institution that has been educating world changing leaders for over 800 years, and draws together the finest men across the globe. At Oxford, you have all the resources of the Oxford University at your fingertips, some of the finest libraries, academic departments, and research labs in the world.“Oxford is the pre-eminent research university that, when it does things, it does things at the very very highest level. And serious-research universities are places where the cleverest people on the planet think really hard about the hardest problems on the planet.”“I would say that the things that strike me the most about Oxford, what I do appreciate about it the most is that it taught me to think again. That the spirit in the air, of learning, of feeling like you are a part of a long legacy of centuries of academic excellence, and being around people also who reaffirm that.”As a student at the Oxford University, you become a member of an Oxford college, which contains a wealth of history and tradition. There are 39 different colleges in the university; each has its own academic fellowship and individual student community. The colleges have their own dining hall,library, cultural groups and sports teams. Your college will give you opportunity to meet other brilliant students from all areas of academic study, from astrophysicist to archeologist, from scientists to engineers.

Before listening, students are supposed to read the words and expressions related to the talk.TranscriptFreshers’ WeekFreshers’ Week at universities can be a nerve-wracking experience.The UK has a well-respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world. But to those who are new to it all, it can be overwhelming and sometimes confusing.October is usually the busiest month in the academic calendar.Universities have something called Freshers’ Week for their newcomers. It’s a great opportunity to make new friends, join lots of clubs and settle into university life.However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, the prospect of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve-wracking.

Before listening, students are supposed to read the words and expressions related to the dialogue.TranscriptA Dialogue between a Teacher and a StudentDr Richardson: Enter, please.David Simons: Good afternoon, Dr Richardson.Dr Richardson: Good afternoon. You’re David Simons, is that right?David Simons:Yes. I’ve an appointment to talk about the course requirements with you.Dr Richardson: Fine. Now why don’t you take a seat over there and I’ll just get some details from you. First, can I have your home address and your student number?David Simons: That’s 15 Market Avenue, Hornsby and my student number is C97H85.Dr Richardson: OK. Now I see here that you’ve already completed 18 credit points, but that you haven’t done the Screen Studies course which is normally a prerequisite for this course. Why is that, David?David Simons:Oh, the course coordinator gave me an exemption because I’ve worked for a couple of years in the movie and television business and they considered my practical experience fulfilled the same requirements. Dr Richardson: Fine. Shall we go over the course requirements first, and then you can bring up any queries or problems you might have. It might be most useful to start with a few dates. The final examination will be in the last week of June, that’s the week of the 23rd. but the final date hasn’t been set. It should be the 25th or the 20th, but you don’t have to worry about that yet. Before that, as you can see in your study guide, there are three essay assignments and some set exercises. I’ll deal with these first. These set exercises are concerned with defining concepts and key terms. They do have fixed answers not in the wording but in the content. To that extent they are quite mechanical, and provide an opportunity for you to do very well as long as your answers are veryspecific and clear.David Simons: Yes, I see there are about twenty terms here. How long should the answers be?Dr Richarson: You shouldn’t exceed 250 words for each term.David Simons:Right. That looks easy enough. And the third assignment seems fairly straightforward too. Just a journalistic type review of a recent development in television. It’s not so different from what I’ve done in my work.Dr Richarson:Yes, it should be fairly easy for you, but don’t exceed 1,000 words on that one. Essays 1 and 2 are the long ones. The first essay should be about 2,000 words and the second 2,500 to 3,000, and the approach for both should be analytical. In the first one, your focus should be on TV and the audience, and you should primarily consider the theoretical issues, particularly in relation to trying to understand audience studies. In the second, I’ll want you to focus on analyzing television programs.David Simons: Should I concentrate on one particular type of program for that?Dr Richarson: Not necessarily. But you must be careful not to overextend yourself here. A comparison between two programs or even between two channels is fine, or a focus on one type of program, such as a particular series, works well here.David Simons:So if I wanted to look at television news programs, that would be OK?Dr Richarson:Yes, there would be no problem with that. In fact it’s quitea popular choice, and most students handle it very well.David Simons: Good. I’ll probably do that, because it’s the area I want to work in later.(黄若妤，2008) Key to ExercisesExercise 1 Listening for Global UnderstandingStudents are asked to listen to the conversation and choose the best answers to the questions.1) D2) B3) DExercise 2 Listening for DetailsStudents are asked to listen to the conversation again and draw lines to match the assignments with their descriptions.Assignmentset exercise assignment1 assignment2 assignment3Descriptionmechanical theoretical analytical journalisticAdditional ListeningIn this section, students will listen to a lecture given by a counselor about the campus facilities and then do the exercises as required. Before listening, students are supposed to read the words and expressions related to the lecture. TranscriptCampus FacilitiesHi, I am your counselor for this year. Today we will visit the facilities available to you on our campus. As students, you should take advantage of everything you have available to you.How many of you like sports? Well, I hope most of you do, because our school has great sports facilities. We have an indoor gym with state of the art equipment. First I want to tell you about our basketball facilities. There are 2 basketball courts, both are full court and open for student use. We offer basketball leagues that all students are invited to join, just sign up with a team. Usually there are games on the courts, but during the league time, only the teams are allowed to use the courts. The basketball courts are open 24 hours a day. If you want a job, you can be a referee at the games.Next, I want to tell you about the tennis facilities. We have 5 tennis courts available for student use. The tennis courts are open everyday 8 am until 10 in the evening. You should call ahead to reserve a court, because they are very popular and can often be booked weeks in advance. There are rackets and balls available for rent at the front desk of the courts.There is an Olympic size swimming pool that is open for students and the general public. There are also showers and locker rooms available. The swimming pool is open everyday 9 am until 7 in the evening. There are openings for the position of lifeguards, so if you are looking for a job in the sun, this might be good for you.There are also 2 weight rooms and a gymnastics room. The weight rooms have all the standard equipment available. Please check with the gym to see the open hours, because they vary from time to time. The gymnastics room is usually not open for individual users because there are almost always classes held in the room. However, if you are interested, you may sign up for gymnastics classes. Plus if you like martial arts and boxing, we offer classes for everyone, from beginners to advanced students. Please check the schedule for availability. There is everything available from Chinese Wushu to Brazilian wrestling.I will talk for a brief moment about our library system. Our campus has3 libraries available to undergraduate students, one additional graduate library, and one faculty library. The libraries are open daily until midnight, except for during testing periods, when the libraries will be open 24 hours.Please look on a map to see where the libraries are located. All students with a valid ID can check out books, with a maximum of 10 books at a time. Books can be checked out for a 2 weeks period, and then renewed for a one month maximum. After that, there is a 1$ fine per week that the book is overdue.I will repeat that…There is a hefty one dollar fine per week! So it is a good idea to return books on time. If you lose a book, then you will have to repay the library for it, plus a fine. If you damage a book, most likely you will have to repay the value of the book. So please, enjoy the library facilities, but take care of the school’s belongings. The library is also equipped with 200 computers for student use. They are all internet ready and available for use. You must sign up at the library for 1 hour timeslots. You may sign up for up to 3 consecutive slots at a time. No one can use the computers without first signing in at the library.That is it for now. Thank you for your attention.(胡敏, 2008) ExercisesExercise 1 Listening for DetailsStudents are asked to listen to the talk and answer the following questions.1) How many hours are the basketball courts open each day?The basketball counters are open 24 hours a day.2) What kind of job do the basketball courts offer?The basketball counts offer the position of referrees at games.3) How many tennis courts are available for students?There are five tennis courts available for students.4) What kind of job does the swimming pool offer?The swimming pool offers the position of lifeguards.5) What should you do if you are interested in gymnastics?You may sign up for gymnastics classes.Exercise 2 Listening for Specific InformationStudents are asked to listen to the talk again and fill in the blanks with the missing information.Part III Oral PracticeIn this part, students will have 3 tasks to accomplish.Task 1 Casual TalkStudents are supposed to choose one of the topics to discuss their definition in detail with the help of the words in the following Information Box. They may do it either in pairs or in groups.My definition of a good…Reference AnswerIn my opinion, a good university should create a most beautiful academic setting where the historic architecture and the inviting green spaces are integrated together. Students can be able to really breathe in the atmosphere. A good university should be dedicated to helping students think smart as they build their academic, personal and career success.I think the key ingredients of a good education include a capable faculty, and strong academic programs. A good university should balance its educational program and close attention to student needs with a progressive look to the future to meet the needs of changing society. In addition to the beautiful campus and the prestigious academic strength, students should enjoy excellent accommodations that help define the university experience. Moreover, a good university should boast attractive and abundant resources and facilities, which support students to enjoy and experience the high-quality academic program, and colorful social life at the same time.Additional Information:Facultylecturer 讲师tutor 助教，导师assistant professor 助理教授associate professor 副教授coordinator 课程协调老师liaison officer 校联络departmental head/chairperson 系主任dean （大学学院）院长chancellor/university president（大学）校长headmaster （中小学）校长school counselor/adviser 指导老师Degreesdiploma 文凭，毕业证书degree 学位Bachelor 学士学位Master 硕士学位Doctorate 博士头衔./Bachelor of Arts 文学学士学位./Bachelor of Science 理学学士学位./Master of Arts 文学硕士学位./Master of Science 理学硕士学位./Doctor of Medicine 医学博士./Doctor of Philosophy 博士Postdoctoral 博士后（研究人员）honorary degree 荣誉学位Coursesbasic course 基础课specialized course 专业课compulsory/required course 必修课optional/selective course 选修课literature 文学philosophy 哲学history 历史art 艺术sociology 社会学linguistic 语言学psychology 心理学engineering 工程学architecture 建筑学business 商务law 法学economics 经济学finance 金融学accounting 会计学banking 银行学biochemistry 生物化学Facilitiesdivision/departments 系campus 校园common room 公共休息室canteen 食堂dining hall 食堂cafeteria 自助餐厅accommodation 住宿parking lot 停车场shopping mall 购物中心teaching building 教学楼lecture theatre 阶梯教室administration/admin office 管理/行政办公室laboratory/lab 实验室student union 学生会auditorium 会堂，礼堂gymnasium/gym 体育馆playground 操场locker room 更衣室library 图书馆recreation room 娱乐室Task 2 Group WorkStudents are asked to redesign and redecorate the apartment they have just rented.

Students are asked to identify the problems they might encounter at university and come up with solutions to them.Teaching StrategyStep 1List the categories of problems that students may encounter at university on the board. Such as, study, financial problem, relations with others, etc.Step 2Divide the class into groups of four. Assign each group a specific category for discussion. Each group, with the help of the related words and phrases, is required to list in detail the problems relevant to the category given to them and tries hard to offer advice or solutions to these problems.Step 3Draw the chart on the board. 10-15 minutes later, ask each group to report what they have discussed.Reference AnswerFar from reflecting on the many new opportunities before me, I was wondering if I will ever feel settled when I first stepped into the college. I was even experiencing doubts about my decision to go to university in the first place. It seems that most new students go through a negative period in which our thoughts may be dominated by feelings of loneliness, anxiety, homesickness or combination of these.It is important to believe that you are not the only one feeling like this; even those around you appear to be happy and coping well. If you are feeling homesick, phone home and talk it through with your family and friends. However, try not to give up too quickly and rush home at the first available opportunity as this will not help in the long term.

Key to Exercise TwoSection 1. Compound DictationMartha Leathe’s belief is derived from（come from）her experience with children, not so much the one she is taught but her own, the task of raising children is often a test of belief as parents come to realize that their actions provide the lessons that children (1) assimilate同化to be similar . Here is Martha Leathe with her essay for this I believe.Several weeks ago, I got a call from a good friend whose husband had just been diagnosed with (被诊断为)prostate cancer(前列腺癌). “Do we tell the kids?” she asked.“Absolutely,” I answered.“Do we use the C-word （cancer委婉语）?”“Yes, I think you do,” I said. “The boys deserve to know the truth, however heartbreaking it is.”Adults always insist that children be honest, but how many of us are honest with our kids, particularly about the tough stuff: death, sex, (2) corruption（腐败）, our own failings?I believe in telling children the truth. I believe this is vital for their understanding of the world, their (3) confidence and the development of their morals and values.This does not mean kids need to be unnecessarily (4) frightened, or told more than they can handle. When our son was 6, he tagged along紧跟，尾随while his older sister got her nose-ring changed. In the shop, he sifted through （check and sort carefully）a big bin of brightly (5) packaged condoms. “What are these?” he said.“Condoms,” I replied.“What are they for,” he asked. Briefly, I explained what condoms are, (6) precisely where you put them and how they work.“Oh,”he said, clearly (7) disappointed, I think, that they weren’t candy. It wasn’t a lot of information, but it was the truth.Many people think they are protecting children when they spare them the truth. I disagree. I believe children (8) possess an enviable (to be envied) ability to cope with and make sense of what even adults find confounding困惑的.When we are honest with children, we also validate their intuition. If we can admit that, yes, people can be mean, grandma does have a drinking problem, divorce is painful, we allow children to trust their gut. (9) They can begin to recognize and rely on their own inner voice, which will speak to them throughout their lives.Kids also have an uncanny (surpassing the normal异乎寻常) sense of when something is up: They realize when we’re uneasy, they can tell when we’re lying.One night, I was in the car with our two oldest daughters. (10) It was dark and cozy — the perfect time for a heart-to-heart conversation.Out of the blue, one of our kids said, “So, Mom, have you ever smoked pot（大麻）?” I stalled a little, but the girls persisted. They had me, and they knew it. So I told them the truth, albeit（虽然）somewhat abridged（缩略）. What ensued was a frank discussion about the lures and perils of drugs. I believe my honesty was much more effective than warnings or platitudes（陈词滥调）.These same daughters are in college now; we have two other kids still at home. (11) And while I have made plenty of mistakes as a parent, I do have clear and open relationships with each of our kids. I believe that my being truthful with our children has paid off, because I’m pretty sure that now they are honest with me.上述是一篇叙述型的文章，不是考试类型，就练习一下dictation题型及熟悉语音语调和速度。

英语作为一门外语在教授时我们总是追求其易懂和得体。

但如果每个民族创造他们自己独特的英语，英语作为一门语言有没有解体的危险。

“我认为媒体的融合过程将使不同种类的英语越来越被人们所理解。

但如果每个地区有不同的英语而每个地区与世隔绝，谁知道又会发生什么情况呢？远离南卡罗莱纳州海岸的海岛是世界上最迷人的地方之一，如果你来到这儿，你会看到三百年前作为奴隶用船运来的黑人。
