Before Korean students take university entrance tests, their friends give them sticky rice candy for luck. The friends hope that the students will pass the test and "stick to" the university. The following short conversations will tell you about different customs in China, Argentina, Switzerland, Italy and Japan.Number 1: ChinaWoman: Did I tell you I'm going to China?Man: China? Great.Woman: Yes. I'm going to Shanghai on business. I have to buy some gifts.Man: Good idea. What are you going to take?Woman: I was thinking of bringing some handkerchiefs. They're colorful, beautiful? also lightweight. I don't want to carry anything heavy.Man: Ah, I don't think you should give handkerchiefs. They aren't a good gift in Chinese culture.Woman: Why not?Man: A handkerchief is a symbol of saying goodbye.Woman: Saying goodbye?Man: Yeah, like when you're going away ... and people are crying, so they need a handkerchief. Actually, I've heard that one of the best things to give is a dinner -- not a present, but a big dinner. It's good for business.Number 2: ArgentinaWoman: This is interesting. Did you know that in Argentina you should never give clothing unless you know the person really well?Man: Don't give clothing? Why not?Woman: Clothing -- even things like ties -- are too personal. Only good friends give them. Man: Huh? I never thought of a tie as being personal ... just uncomfortable. What should you bring?Woman: I don't know. Maybe something for the house.Number 3: SwitzerlandMan: We're meeting Mr. Mertz and his wife for dinner. Maybe I should take flowers or something ... Yeah, I'll pick up some red roses.Woman: You'd better not give them roses. In Switzerland, they could be a symbol of love and romance.Man: Oh, I didn't know that.Woman: I think candy or chocolate might be better.Number 4: ItalyWoman: I'd like some flowers. Uh ... those. About ten, I guess.Man: Ma'am, I don't think you should give ten flowers. In Italy, even numbers -- 2, 4, 6, andso on -- are bad luck.Woman: Even numbers are bad luck? OK, I'll take nine flowers then.Number 5: JapanWoman: May I help you?Man: I'm going to stay with a family in Japan. I need to get something for them.Woman: Pen sets are always a good gift.Man: Oh, that's a good idea. Let's see ... There are sets with a pen and pencil ... and bigger sets with four pens.Woman: You said you're going to Japan?Man: Yeah.Woman: Don't give a set of four pens -- in fact, don't give four of anything.Man: Why not?Woman: The Japanese word for "four" sounds like the word for "death." It's bad luck.Man: Thanks for telling me. I'll take the pen and pencil set.Woman: Good choice. These sets make very good gifts. After all, pens write in any language! Man: Uh ... yeah.

-- Dante, Italian poet --意大利诗人但丁Pre-reading task:1.How do you understand the title of Text A-Writing For Myself?2.Why did Baker enjoy writing “The Art of Eating Spaghetti”?First PeriodPart one: Listening task (10m)Listen to the passage and answer the following questions:Next week, Max is going on a business trip. He’s going to fly to London from San Francisco. He tried to buy airplane tickets last week but the flight was full. Yesterday his travel agent called and told him there was space on the flight. He’s going to get the tickets in a mail tomorrow.Questions:1. What is Max going to do next week? (He’s going on a business trip next week.)2. Is he going to Sa n Francisco? (No, he’s going to fly to London.)3. Why could he not buy the tickets last week? (Because the flight was full.)4. Who helped him with the tickets? (His travel agent)5. Can he get his tickets today? (No, he can’t. He’s going to get the ticke ts tomorrow.)Part two: Review task(20m):How to understand the title-Writing For Myself? (para5)Look at the title of Text A, then find out in which paragraph a similar phrase appears. Read that paragraph carefully and explain in your own words what the author means by saying “write for myself”.Usually we will write the compositions in the light of all the rules given by teacher and do not dare to violate these rules. So in some sense we write the compositions for teachers. But Baker want to put down or write down the warmth and good feeling of eating spaghetti for himself, and relive and recapture the pleasure of that evening, even though Fleagle would give him a failing grade.Why did Baker enjoy writing “The Art of Eating Spaghetti”?(para3-4)Fleagle distributed a homework sheet with some simple-minded and dull topics, so Baker did nothing until the night before the essay was due. Finally Baker faced up to the unwelcome task and scanned it and chose the title The Art of Eating Spaghetti. This title produced an extraordinary sequence of mental images. Vivid memories came flooding back of a night in Belleville when all of us were seated around the supper table.All the good humor of Uncle Allen’s house reawoke in my mind as I recalled the laughing arguments we had that night about the socially respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth.Part three: Cultural Notes (10m)1. Spaghetti(意大利式细面条)It is the Italian-style thin noodles. Unlike some Chinese noodles, it is usually served with sauce, not in soupand it will never taste pulpy (多汁的).2. What is the right way of eating spaghetti ?Spaghetti is the Italian-style thin noodle, cooked by boiling and served with sauce. Usually you would put a fork into a plate of spaghetti, turn the fork several times so that spaghetti will wind around the fork, then place the fork into your mouth. It’s impolite to suck.3.

He wore primly severe eyeglasses, prim suits with neckties set primly against the collar buttons of his white shirts. He had a primly pointed jaw, a primly straight nose.The prim manner of speaking was so correct and gentle that he seemed a comic antique.2.How to realize his dream?:first (para.3), Mr. Fleagle distributed a homework sheet to write an informal essay.

According to Baker’s essay: The Art of Eating Spaghetti, talk about the essence of the essay. Whatis essay? How to write essay?According to Baker’s essay, we know that a good essay is the reflection of writer’s true feelings not the repetion of all the rules of formal composition. Writer writes simply for his own joy and pleasure not for teachers, recapture and relive the author’s true feelings. So the essence of good essay is to write that one enjoys writing about. This is what the title Writing For Myself means. This is the essence of essay. (see para.5)2. Analysis of writing skills of essayAccording to Text A, the essay is, in a sense, an account of what once happened to you in your life. Writing of this kind usually takes the form of narration with some facts and arguments and some expressions of the author’s feelings. Text A is written according to time clues.2.1 Look for some arguments and supporting details for Baker to support his opinions, and paraphrase these arguments.Argument 1 (para1)The idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville, but it wasn’t until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold. (I was bored by everything connected with English courses. I found English grammar dull and difficult. I hated the assignments to turn out long, lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write.)Argument 2 (para2)When our class was assigned to Mr. Fleagle for third-year English I anticipated another cheerless year in that most tedious of subjects. (He had a reputation among students for dullness and not arousing students’ inspiration. He was said to be formal, rigid, and out of fashion/outdated. I prepared for an unfruitful year with Mr. Fleagle and for a long time was not disappointed.)Argument 3 (para4)This title produced an extraordinary sequence of mental images. (Vivid memories came flooding back of a night in Belleville. We were seated around the supper table, we argue about the socially respectable method for eating spaghetti, we laughed cheerly.)2.2 Ask students to look for some sentences for Baker to express his feelings and translate these sentences into Chinese.-Until then I’d been bored by everything associated with English courses. (para1)-I prepared for an unfruitful year with Mr.Fleagle and for a long time was not disappointed(desperate ). (para3)-suddenly I wanted to write about that, about the warmth and good feeling of it, but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy, not for Mr. Fleagle. It was a moment I wanted to recapture and hold for muself. I wanted to relive the pleasure of that evening. To write it as I wanted, however, would violate all the rules of formal composition I’d learned in school.(para5)-I did my best to avoid showing pleasure, but what I was feelling was pure delight at this demonstration that my words had the power to make people laugh.(para9)2.3 Ask students to look for the time clues in text A and retell the storysuggested answer:Since my childhood in Belleville I haven’t dreamed becoming a writer, until my third year in high school the possibility of the idea took hold. Until then I was bored by everything related to English classes. When our class was assigned to Mr. Fleagle for third-year English I anticipated another cheerless year in that most tedious of subjects. Late in the year we tackled the informal essay, Fleagle assigned an essay to us. Until the night before the essay was due I did nothing, but I finally faced up to the unwelcome task. When I finished writing the essay, the night was half gone and there was no time left to compose a proper and respectable essay for Fleagle. Next morning I had to turn in my tale. Two days passed Fleagle returned everyone’s but mine. When I saw him lift my paper from his desk and knock for the class’s attention I was preparing myself for a command to report to him immediately after school for discipline. When Mr. Fleagle finished, he said that this is the essence of the essay. Congratulations on your writing, Mr. Baker.Part four: Useful Expressions(15m)Translate the below useful expressions into English(teacher tell students these Chinese expressions and let students find the English expressions from the Text A)!1. 断断续续(off and on)2. 对…感到腻味(be bored by ...)3. 觉得…枯燥难懂(find ... dull and difficult)4. 以…而出名(have a reputation for...)5. 据说某人…(sb. be said to be ...)6. 拘谨刻板,落后于时代(formal, rigid and out-of-date)7. 随笔小品文(an informal essay)8. 躺在沙发上(lie on a sofa)9. 不得不面对…(face up to ...)10. 围坐在晚餐桌旁(be seated around the supper table) 11. …重现在我脑海中(... reawake in my mind)12. 自得其乐(for my own joy) 13. 违反规定(violate the rules)14. 不及格分(a failing grade) 15. 别无选择,只好做…(There is no choice but to do...)16. 更不可思议的是(what’s more) 17. 专心听讲(listen attentively)18. 乐乎乎地开怀大笑(laugh with open-hearted enjoyment) 19. 心花怒放(pure delight)20. 最后的时刻(at the eleventh hour)Part five: homework(5m)1.Find out the synonymous words and phrases from Text Afor the words and phrases below.dull (L. 4): bored, lifeless, cheerless, tedious turn out (L. 5): compose, put downanticipate (L. 8): prepare for formal (L.10): rigid, prim, correct, proper, respectablerecapture (L. 35): relive contempt (L. 52): ridicule2. Preview Text B and try to find out the answers to the following questions:1. Who was Mr. Ballou? What was the author’s impression of Mr. Ballou at first? What did the author find about Mr. Ballou later?2. What was the attitude of the author towards reading books before he went into Mr. Ballou’s house? Did t he author’s attitude towards reading changed later?3. How did the author like what Mr. Ballou had given to him?4. What’s the conclusion of this author?Third PeriodPart one: review task : task 1 (task 2 will be handled when the structure of Text B is analyzed) (10m) Part two: Error Correction (15m)Directions: Look carefully at the passage and correct the mistakes. And then underline the words and phrases you’ve just learned.The sight of the picture always associated me to(with) my childhood. Life in school was tideous(tedious) and dull.Discipline(disciplines) from the rigid teachers were unavoidable for any violation out of(of) their commands. However(what’s more), nothing could inspire us to face up with(face up to) the hopless(hopeless) life.Part three(20m): Group Discussion1. What do you learn from the story?(No matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, we should face up to them and try our best to conquer them. We should learn from Baker to dare to write a good essay for his own joy not for Fleagle, that is to say, we should dare to challenge the rules of formal compositions not only obey them, we should learn his spirit to challenge authority. We should believe in our abilities to deal with the difficult problems just as Baker wrote a good essay by himself and got teacher’s appreciation finally. )2.Is there any unforgettable experience during your growing up? What is it? Why? How do you succeed and how do you overcome you failures?We all hope we will experience all the good things in life, such as the happiness of realizing our dreams, the joy of feeling worthwhile, and the satisfaction of knowing we’ve succeeded. Indeed, we cannot always hope to embrace success and never accept failure. And most importantly, only if we learn from many a failure can we do things better and finally overcome such a bad feeling as frustration. It is the part ou our life experience. In our process of growing up, we may inevitably experience it when confronted with situations that don’t come up to our expectations. It is a test of our courage when it befalls us. If we let it controls us, we may fall into sadness. But if we conquer it, it will become our source of inspiration, we may ultimately enjoy the glory of success.3. Summary of text AAs students when we are writing we are often told to keep our readers and teachers in mind, to shape what we say to fit their tastes and interests. So Baker is very confused and does not know how to finish an essay when Mr. Fleagle distributed a homework sheet offering a choice of topics. But there is one reader in particular who should not be forgotten, that is the writer himself. Baker discovered this point. And finally finished the essay writing by putting down the happy memories for himself and obtained the teacher and classmates’ appreciation.Part four: Structure of Text B( 40m)I. Structural Chart of Text B:II. Questions that could guide the students to understand the structure of Text B.1. When did the story take place? What did the author do at that time?This story took place when he was fourteen. He was a student who cut lawns for other people as a summer job to earn money.2. When did the narrator wrote this essay? What did the narrator do when he wrote this essay?Thirty years later. He became an anthropologist at Dartmouth College.3. Who was Mr. Ballou? What was the author’s impression of Mr. Ballou at first?He was one of the neighbors of the author who never paid the author for cutting lawns at all. The author thought that Mr. Ballou was poor but polite at first.(Para.2 “ Mr. Ballou fell into the last category, and he always had a reason why. On one day he had no change for a fifty, on another he was flat out of checks, on another, he was simply out when I knocked on his door.” “I figured him for a thin retiremen t check.” “Grass was grass, and the little that Mr.Ballou’s property comprised didn’t take long to trim.”(Poor)Para.2 “ …always waving or tipping his hat when he’d see me from a distance…” (Polite))4. What did the author find about Mr. Ballou later?Later, the author found that Mr. Ballou was rich in books and experienced in reading.(Para.7 “…I saw that books were stacked everywhere. It was like a library…”(rich in books)Para.8 “ This is nothing…a second time.” (experienced in reading))5. What was the attitude of the author towards reading books before he went into Mr. Ballou’s house?He just read what was in front of him, i.e. he just read randomly for entertainment, and he even didn’t know what were his favorites, none of the books or magazines he read before had any impressions on his memories. (Para. 9 “ I generally read what was in front of me, what I could get from the paperback stack at the drugstore, what I found at the library, magazines, the back of cereal boxes, comics. The idea of consciously seeking out a special title was new to me, but, I realized, not without appeal…”)6. Did the author’s attitude towards reading changed later? When?Yes, his attitude towards reading changed later. In the evening of the day on which he got the book t itled “ The Last of the Just” from Mr. Ballou, he began to read seriously and absorbedly, this book attracted him and impressed him deeply.(Para.16 “ Within a few pages, the yard, the summer, disappeared, and I was plunged into the aching tragedy of the Holocaust, the extraordinary clash of good, represented by one decent man, and evil.”Para.17 “ To this day, thirty years later, I vividly remember the experience. It was my first voluntary encounter with world literature, and I was stunned by the concentra ted power a novel could contain.”)7. Had Mr. Ballou ever paid a cent to the author? What did he give to the author instead? How did the author like what Mr. Ballou had given to him?Mr. Ballou had never paid a cent to the author; he just gave some books to the author as the down payment. The author thought that what Mr. Ballou had given to him was of great value, because he became an anthropology professor later due to these books.(Para20. “ To make two long stories short, Mr. Ballou never paid me a cent for cutting his grass that year or the next, but for fifteen years I taught anthropology at Dartmouth College.8. What’s the conclusion of this author?Reading was not the innocent entertainment, and a right book will change the course of your life.(P ara. 20 “Summer reading was not the innocent entertainment I had assumed it to be, not a light hearted, instantly forgettable escape in a hammock (though I have since enjoyed many of those, too). A book, if it arrives before you …all that follows.”)Part five: Homework(5m)Ask the students to rewrite this essay in their own words, and encourage them to try to use the following wordsin their writings: comprise, motion, clash, represent, decent, evil, voluntary, assume. (120 words).Fourth periodPart one: review task(15m)Suggested answer:When I was fourteen, I earned money in the summer by cutting lawns. Mr. Ballou was one of my neighbors who never paid me at all. But I didn’t mind because the little that his property comprised didn’t take long to trim. O ne day, he motioned me to come into his house, and I saw that books were stacke d everywhere. Mr. Ballou encouraged me to choose some books to read, but I didn’t know what I want at all. So, Mr. Ballou helped to choose one book for me through a careful consideration. I started after supper. Within a few pages, I was plunged into the aching tragedy of the Holocaust, the extraordinary clash of good, represented by one decent man, and evil. It was my first voluntary encounter with world literature, and I was stunned by the concentrated power a novel could contain. Summer reading was not the innocent entertainment I had assumed it to be; a book, if it arrives before you at the right moment, will change the course of all that follows.Part two: Paraphrase and Translate the Following Sentences (35m)1.I got to know people by the flowers they planted that I had to remember not to cut down, by the things theylost in the grass or stuck in the ground on purpose.Paraphrase: My customers would plant some flowers on their lawns, and I had to remember not to cut down these flowers. Or sometimes they would lose or stick some things in the ground intentionally, and these details had helped me to get to know them gradually.客户们种植的花卉我得记住不能剪去,他们有时会将东西遗落在草地上或故意插在地里,通过这些我逐渐认识了他们。

They offer us a variety of ways to learn new information , to test your skills, and most importantly, to bring us together .Instead of watching television all the time, people are finding that board games give us the outlet to test our skills and knowledge against each other.

Sometimes the customs seem unusual. For exampl e, in Australia, a birthday cake for a 21-year-old is often shaped like a key. It means the person is an adult and can come home at any time. In parts of Africa, peopl e give a cow as a wedding present, because they believe that a cow can bring good luck to the newly-weds. Before Korean stud ents take university entrance tests, their friends give them sticky rice candy for luck. The friends hope that the stud ents will pass the test and "stick to" the university. The following short conversations will tell you about different customs in China, Argentina, Switzerland, Italy and Japan.Number 1: ChinaWoman: Did I tell you I'm going to China?Man: China? Great.Woman: Yes. I'm going to Shanghai on business. I have to buy some gifts. Man: Good id ea. What are you going to take?Woman: I was thinking of bringing some handkerchiefs. They're col orful, beautiful? also lightweight. I d on't want to carry anything heavy.Man: Ah, I d on't think you shoul d give handkerchiefs. They aren't a good gift in Chinese culture.Woman: Why not?Man: A handkerchief is a symbol of saying goodbye.Woman: Saying goodbye?Man: Yeah, like when you're going away ... and peopl e are crying, so they need a handkerchief. Actually, I've heard that one of the best things to give is a dinner -- not a present, but a big dinner. It's good for business.Number 2: ArgentinaWoman: This is interesting. Did you know that in Argentina you shoul d never give clothing unl ess you know the person really well?Man: Don't give clothing? Why not?Woman: Cl othing -- even things like ties -- are too personal. Only good friends give them.Man: Huh? I never thought of a tie as being personal ... just uncomfortabl e. What should you bring?Woman: I d on't know. Maybe something for the house.Number 3: SwitzerlandMan: We're meeting Mr. Mertz and his wife for dinner. Maybe I should take fl owers or something ... Yeah, I'll pick up some red roses.Woman: You'd better not give them roses. In Switzerland, they could be a symbol of l ove and romance.Man: Oh, I didn't know that.Woman: I think candy or chocolate might be better.Number 4: ItalyWoman: I'd like some fl owers. Uh ... those. About ten, I guess.Man: Ma'am, I d on't think you should give ten fl owers. In Italy, even numbers -- 2, 4, 6, and so on -- are bad luck.Woman: Even numbers are bad luck? OK, I'll take nine fl owers then. Number 5: JapanWoman: May I help you?Man: I'm going to stay with a family in Japan. I need to get something for them. Woman: Pen sets are always a good gift.Man: Oh, that's a good id ea. Let's see ... There are sets with a pen and pencil ... and bigger sets with four pens.Woman: You said you're going to Japan?Man: Yeah.Woman: Don't give a set of four pens -- in fact, d on't give four of anything. Man: Why not?Woman: The Japanese word for "four" sounds like the word for "d eath." It's bad luck.Man: Thanks for telling me. I'll take the pen and pencil set.Woman: Good choice. These sets make very good gifts. After all, pens write in any language!Man: Uh ... yeah. Right.Key Unit 2 The Fun They HadText ComprehensionI. AII. 1. T 2. F 3. T 4. F 5. TIII.IV.1.
