Encourage Ss to think independently, critically and creatively and share their ideas with each other.Supplementary Information1.economic systemAn economic system is a system for producing, distributing and consuming goods and services, including the combination of the various institutions, agencies, consumers, entities that comprise the economic structure of a given society or community. It also includes how these various agencies and institutions are linked to one another, how information goes between them, and the social relations within the system.Two of the basic and general economic systems are market economy and planned economy. Market economy is an economic system in which businesses and individuals decide what to produce and buy, and the market determines quantities sold and prices, whereas planned economy is an economic system in which decisions regarding production and investment are embodied in a plan formulated by a central authority, usually by a public body such as a government agency.Although a planned economy may be based on either centralized or decentralized forms of economic planning, it usually refers to a centrally planned economy.2.free enterpriseFree enterprise refers to the system of business in which individuals are free to decide what to produce, how to produce, and at what price to sell.Language Support1.Most academics today subscribe to the following modified version of AdamSmith’s theory:…(Para. 2)In the text, the phrase “subscribe to”means “agreeing with or supporting (an opinion, theory, etc.)”（同意；赞成）.e.g. I subscribe to the idea that voting is my civic duty.She subscribes to the theory that some dinosaurs were warm-blooded andothers were cold-blooded.It can also refer to “paying money to get (a publication or service) regularly”（订阅）.e.g. I subscribe to several magazines.We have subscribed to an evening newspaper.2.These constraints take a number of different forms. …Another set ofconstraints …(Para. 3)Two recent examples dramatically illustrate these points. First, …(Para. 3) Classification is employed to organize things into categories with a single organizing principle, and give examples of things that fit into each category. Here are other commonly-used words and expressions for classification:•The first (kind/type/group/class/etc.) …; the second …; the third …•sort, classify, categorize …•category, group, class, kind …3.Saving the financial system required a bailout of the banks and otherfinancial companies, and that bailout imposed huge costs on the taxpayers, and also helped push the economy into a deep recession. (Para. 5)impose sth. on sb.:i) force something on someone把......强加于e.g. He always imposes his opinion on others.ii) levy a tax or duty征税e.g. It is therefore necessary for governments to impose a higher tax on this kindof food.Here is another usage of the word “impose”:impose on sb.:i) force oneself on others强加于人e.g. Thanks for your offer to help, but I did not want to impose on you.ii) take unfair advantage of 利用e.g. Don’t you think you are imposing on your neighbor when you use histelephone for half an hour?4.be true to one’He is always true to his word and focused on the big picture.Ninety days later, true to his word, the goldsmith brought the crown.5.To date, Buffett has contributed more than $6 billion, and over time he isscheduled to contribute additional stock that is now worth in excess of $40 billion. (Para. 7)in excess of: greater than, more than 超过e.g. Luggage in excess of 100 kg will be charged extra.This plane can reach speeds in excess of 1000 kilometers an hour.Answer KeysCritical reading and thinkingTask 1 / Overview1The original version：The invisible hand; Profit maximization; Free enterprise systemThe modified version:the wealth of its stockholders; the best economic system; constraints2Argument 11) a wide range of regulations are imposed2) assessing costs on companies; BP oil spillArgument 21) behave ethically; value and reputation2) Don’t Be Evil3) creative capitalism4) contributed more than $6 billionTask 2 / Points for discussion (Suggested Answers)11) Yes, I agree. Because:• Earning profit is the main aim of every economic activity. A business is an economic activity and hence, its main aim should be to earn profit.• Profit is a measure of eff iciency and economic prosperity of the business. This justifies the concept of profit maximization.• Economic conditions do not remain the same all the time. A business can retain its profit so that it can survive the adverse situations in the future. Profit gives protection against future risks and uncertainties.• Profit is the main source of finance for growth and expansion. Profit is essential for the business in order to invest in new business propositions.• Profitability is essential for fulfilling the social goals of the business. With profit maximization a business can do socio-economic welfare and follow its policies of corporate social responsibility.2) No, I don’t agree. Because:Business should do anything they can to make a profit, but never at the cost of human welfare and natural environment. Human welfare must be considered as important as profit making. A business is successful to the extent that it provides a product that contributes to happiness in all forms. As a matter of fact, the great value of a business should be morally associated with consumer’s satisfaction and safety. On the other hand, businesses of great value should not be blind to their moral obligations of protecting the natural environment.2 Yes, it is a very effective way for society to impose such regulations to prevent companies from engaging in practices that hurt society. For most businesses their ultimate goal is to make profits. It is true that most businessmen try to abide by the laws while making profits. However we have to admit that there are some who use every means to make as much money as possible, even regardless of the interests ofemployees, communities, and environment. Therefore, the regulations such as penalties and suspension for internal rectification should be imposed to deter companies from unlawful practices.3 Yes, having a good reputation with customers, suppliers, employees and regulators is essential if value is to be maximized. Business success is associated with many entities, such as customers, suppliers, employees and regulators. If customers are satisfied with your products and service, they will be loyal to your company. If suppliers provide you with qualified products, your business will operate well. If employees are treated well, they will work very hard and are willing to be part of your company. If regulators are certain that your company acts fairly and follows rules, your company will develop sustainably. All above depends on whether the business is continually operating with society’s interests in mind and maintaining a good reputation.Language building-upAnswer keysTask 1 / Specialized vocabulary11 纳税人2 自由企业制度3 股东4 经济体制5 市场力量；市场调节作用6 金融机构7 stock price 8 mission9 corporate motto 10 assets11 profit maximization 12 financial system21 financial institutions2 free enterprise system3 assets4 Taxpayers5 stockholder6 profit maximization7 economic system 8 market forcesTask 2 / Academic vocabulary1. principal2. dramatically3. academics4. maximization5. framework6. range7. compensate 8. transfer9. inadequate 10. constraintsTask 3 / Collocations1. subscribe to2. striving to3. imposing …on4. go out of business5. as a whole6. engaged in7. go hand in hand with 8. in excess ofTask 4 / Formal English1 insights2 subscribe to3 imposes4 adverse5 mission6 philanthropic7 donated 8 famedTranslation of Text A达到适当的平衡在1776年，亚当·斯密描述了一只“看不见的手”是如何引导企业追求利润的，而这只手会引导企业做出有利于社会的决策。

Unit Four 4►Text:参考译文爱因斯坦痛苦的罗曼史沃尔特·沙利文[1]新近披露的艾伯特·爱因斯坦与意中人（此人后来成为他的元配）之间的来往信件，向人们展示了这对情侣饱含辛酸的爱情经历。

[2]有许多信件都叙述了这位年轻科学家和他未婚妻米莱娃·玛丽克之间的爱情，叙述了因为爱因斯坦的母亲拼命反对这门亲事而引起他俩的痛苦心情，还叙述了他俩为孩子的即将出世油然而生的兴奋心情。

[3]然而，这个女孩后来的命运如何依然是个谜。

她是在这对夫妇于1903年结婚前生下的，而且对她后来的情况显然没有记载。

[4]与所披露的艰难的罗曼史交织在一起的是爱因斯坦满怀信心地为自己的相对论概念而努力奋斗的思想片断。

[5]爱因斯坦与玛丽克（她出生在当时匈牙利的塞尔维亚地区，现为南斯拉夫的一部分。

）是在1896年交上朋友的。

当时他俩正一起在苏黎世的联邦理工学院学习，在后来的许多岁月中，因爱因斯坦为找工作奔波，玛丽克为回家探亲而造成多次分离，所以他们通信频繁。

[6]爱因斯坦在信中向玛丽克吐露，自己正投身于物理学的许多领域（其中包括光的特性、相对运动和分子现象）内发生的革命。

[7]据波士顿大学物理学教授、爱因斯坦论文集的编辑约翰·施塔赫尔博士说，看起来，与其说玛丽克是爱因斯坦思想的贡献者，不如说是爱因斯坦思想的“共鸣者”。

[8]1899年爱因斯坦20岁。

在给玛丽克的一封信中，他提前谈论了自己6年后发表的早期相对论思想。

当时许多物理学家仍然认为空间充满着一种能使光波传播的不可见的介质。

他们将这种介质称之为“传光的以太”。

[9]爱因斯坦的信还透露了他家里的人对玛丽克的鄙视态度。

1900年7月，他得到姐姐的警告说，父母竭力反对他与玛丽克结婚。

当他把自己的打算告诉母亲后，“妈妈一下子扑倒在床上，把头埋在枕头下，哭得像孩子似的”，他在给玛丽克的信中写道。

[10]爱因斯坦继续写道：“当她从开头的打击中恢复过来后，便立即转换方式，发起猛烈攻势。

The criterion is the length of food deprivation.4) He predicted that participants with long-term food deprivation would perform worse on theconcentration perseverance tasks than those with short-term food deprivation, who in turn wouldperform worse than those without food deprivation.The result was that food deprivation had no significant effect on concentration, and a significantTeacher’s Manual of an Integrated Academic English Course IV130effect on perseverance time, with the 12-hour group spending significantly less time on theperseverance task than either the control group or the 24-hour group, with no significant differencebetween the latter two groups.5) It was explained that the participants in the 12-hour group gave up more quickly on theperseverance task because of their hunger produced by the food deprivation, while the 24-hourgroup had developed “learned industriousness”. Another explanation was the motivational state ofparticipants, for the 12-hour group took the tests at 10 p.m., a prime time of the night for businessand socializing rather than for working on the puzzle.The first limitation of the study was the time of day when the respective groups took the tests, andthe second was the reasons of food deprivation; for example, fasting for religious reasons.Task 31) s 2) q 3) r 4) p 5) n 6) f7) g 8) m 9) k 10) l 11) i 12) j13) h 14) e 15) t 16) d 17) b 18) c19) a 20) o 21) x 22) v 23) w 24) uTask 4SentencesChineseequivalentsSynonyms1) The number of wells is a fair indicator of thedemand for water.指标，指示物index, display, signal, sign2) Body temperatures can fluctuate when you areill.波动，变动oscillate, change, alter, vary,vacillate3) Unemployment is a chronic problem in thiscountry.长期的，慢性的constant, deep-rooted, deep-seated,persistent, ineradicable4) I requested a copy of the form. 请求，要求demand, ask for, appeal for, put infor, desire, pray for, put forward,beg for5) She then proceeded to criticize the way I did it. 开始，继续进行continue, carry on, go on, go ahead, advance, continue6) Consumption of alcohol impairs your ability todrive.损害，削弱spoil, injure, decrease, weaken,damage, worsen, diminish,reduce, reduce, undermine, harm7) We need to designate someone as our spokesperson. 指定，指派name, appoint, choose8) Can my child be medically examined withoutmy consent?同意sanction, approval, assent,permission, agreement,acquiescence9) They’ve been deprived of the fuel necessary toheat their homes.剥夺，使丧失strip, rob, dispossess131Unit 6 The Effects of Food DeprivationSentencesChineseequivalentsSynonyms10) Many slopes are rock fields with sparse vegetation. 稀疏的，稀少的scarce, meager, sporadic, scattered, scanty11) He surmised that he had discovered one of theillegal streets.猜测，推断infer, guess, speculate, deduce,conclude, predicate, theorize12) Freud postulated that we all have a death instinct. 假定，认为presume, suspect, assume, presuppose, suppose, hypothesizeThe most formal ones are: fluctuate, oscillate, vacillate, ineradicable, undermine, sanction,acquiescence, sparse, meager, sporadic, surmise, hypothesizeTask 51) According to some researchers, most of the results so far prove that short-termfasting does notaffect cognitive function very much. However, it is too early to draw the conclusion because there isnot enough research on the cognitive functions such as concentration and perseverance. 2) In general, we found our hypothesis supported by the data, as 12 hours of food deprivation wouldgreatly affect perseverance when compared to no deprivation. Unexpectedly, 24 hours of fooddeprivation did not influence perseverance much when compared with the control group.3) We guess that the participants who were deprived of food for 12 hours gave up more quickly on theperseverance task because of hunger. But why didn’t 24-hour food deprivation produce the sameeffect? We assume that it is because of “learned industriousness” which means participants whoperform one difficult task do better on a following task than those who never took the f irst task.Task 6Summary: Future researches on food deprivation and cognition could include the effects of short-termfood deprivation on other aspects of cognition, exploration of longer-term fooddeprivation periods andthe effects of food deprivation on learned industriousness.Task 7Food deprivation has been found to affect people’s ability to focus on a task in previous studies, butnot much attention has been paid to the effects of food deprivation on cognition.①This study intendedto explore how short-term food deprivation affects concentration and perseverance with a difficulttask.②Qualified participants were divided into the control group(with no food deprivation), 12-hourfood deprivation group and 24-hour food deprivation group and they were assigned tofinish theconcentration tasks and perseverance tasks.③It was found that food deprivation had no significant effecton concentration, 12 hours of food deprivation greatly affected perseverance when compared to nodeprivation while 24 hours of food deprivation did not influence perseverance much.④“ Learnedindustriousness” and the motivational state of participants were the possible explanations for theresults.⑤The study provides some insights into the cognitive and physiological effects of skipping meals.(Continued )Teacher’s Manual of an Integrated Academic English Course IV132① the objective ② methods used ③ findings④ explanation ⑤ implicationTask 8(omitted)Task 9(omitted)Task 10(omitted)Research Paper WritingTask 1Function: Describe the outline of the talkFunction: Introduce the topicFunction: Indicate the shift from one idea to anotherFunction: Giving closing remarksFunction: Summarize the talkTask 2Will our city be buried under the sea in one thousand years time?
