Unit Eight Travel
I.Teaching Objectives:
Students will be able to :
1.understand the main idea and structure of the text;
2.appreciate the fluid and sensual writing style;
3.grasp the key language points and grammatical structures
in the text;
4.conduct a series of reading, listening, speaking and
writing activities.
II.Text Analysis:
The text is beautifully written. That’s why we arrange a post-reading activity simply for students to share favorite sentences with each other. It may be true that the functional use of English will dominate in their life, but it pays to expose them to the aesthetic side of English.
There is an abundance of sensory impressions in the essay.
All of our five senses are appealed to here. We hear the songs of birds, insects and children. We feel the coolness of drinks and the night. We smell the sweetness in the air.
We observe the wonderful sights and graceful movements on the river, on the lake and in the jungle. We taste the
delicious village food.
Not only does the author move effortlessly from one sensory impression to another, but she also handles the changes in time and place in a smooth, seamless way. In part II, she first writes about what happened “later that night”, then moved back to narrate the incidents of “ that afternoon”, finally back to “now”. she was sitting on a tree stump on the river bank near a palm-thatch village in Part I, then she sat in a camp in Part II, went on a journey away from the river into the jungle and finally returned to riverside village in Part III.
All through these movements there is overall coherence.
There is an echo—“It would be worth it”, “The Napo River: it is not out of the way. It is in the way.”
III.Cultural Notes:
1.Amazon (river): river in northern South America, largely
in Brazil, ranked as the largest in the world in terms of
watershed area, number of tributaries, and volume of
water discharged. Measuring 6,400 km (4,000 mi) from
source to mouth, it is second in length only to the Nile
among the rivers of the world. With its hundreds of
tributaries, the Amazon drains a territory of more than 6
million sq km (2.3 million sq mi), roughly half of which is in Brazil; the rest is in Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Venezuela. It is estimated that the Amazon discharges between 34 million and 121 million liters (9 million and
32 million galleons) of water per second and deposits a
daily average of 3 million tons of sediment near its mouth.
The annual outflow from the river accounts for one-fifth of all the fresh water that drains into the oceans of the world. The outpouring of water and sediment is so vast that the salt content and color of the Atlantic Ocean are altered for a distance of about 320 km (about 200 mi) from the mouth of the river.
2.Ecuador:republic in northwestern South America,
bounded by Colombia on the north, by Peru on the east and south, and by the Pacific Ocean on the west. The country also includes the Galapagos Islands in the Pacific, about 965 km (about 600 mi) west of the mainland.
Ecuador straddles the equator and has an area of 272,045 sq km (105,037 sq mi). Quito is the country’s capital.
Ecuador has a diverse population composed of people of European, Native American, and African descent. The majority are Mestizos, individuals of mixed European and
Native American ancestry. Most of the Native Americans live in poverty in the highlands region, where a small elite of European descent controls most of the land and wealth.
Ecuador was a Spanish colony until 1822, when independence forces won a decisive victory over Spain.
Ecuador has had a democratically elected government since 1979, but historically the government has alternated between civilian rule and military dictatorship. Most political conflicts involved squabbles among groups within the upper classes who controlled the nation’s wealth.
3. Andes:the principal mountains of South America and
one of the greatest mountain systems of the world. The Andes include some of the world’s highest peaks. More than 50 of them soar higher than 6,100 m above sea level. Only the Himalayas of south central Asia are higher. The lofty plateaus and high mountain valleys of the Andes contain some of the highest permanent human settlements in the world. The Andes are the longest system of high mountain ranges on earth. They extend for more than 8000 km in a narrow belt along the western edge of the South American continent, from the
coast of the Caribbean Sea in the north to the island of
Tierra del Fuego in the extreme south. Along almost its
entire length, the Andes rise abruptly from the Pacific
coast. The mountains reach into seven countries.
Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile and
Argentina.

浅析中国大学的英语教学现状 摘要：英语作为一种国际性语言已是一个无可非议的事实，在我国科研创造、经济商贸和国际交往中的作用也是有目共睹的。为适应我国高等教育发展的新形式，深入英语教学改革，提高英语教学质量，满足新时期国家和社会对人才培养的需要，全国多所高校近几年开展了大学英语教学改革试点工作。本文从教师的教学方式、师资队伍、应试教学倾向等方面对中国大学的英语教学现状进行了阐述。 关键词：高校；英语；教学 目前从高校应届毕业生的反响来看，大学英语教育水平的高低渐渐成了衡量当代大学综合实力的一个重要参考标准，英语四六级在大学阶段的重要性逐年得到重视，也是应聘者简历上的重要参数，为适应时代发展，我国各地高校开始陆陆续续在英语教学上开始了新的尝试。 一、高校英语课堂亟待新的英语教学模式 据2010年央视关于大学生英语学习情况的一份调查报告显示：许多大学英语教师在教学中仍然采用传统的教育理念，对现代教育思想和语言学习特点缺乏基本的理解。而教师的现代教育理念意识薄弱，对大学英语教学却是致命的威胁。另外大多数高等院校课堂教学效果不理想，被学生认可的程度颇低。因为其相对单一的教学方式不能满足当代学生
的需求，从而导致大量学生缺课。究其原因主要是：很多教师课堂教学模式只是“一本书”，“一只笔”，“一言堂”，学生总是被动的接受，没有主动参与的机会，从而违背了语言的交际本质。然而，现代教育技术迅猛发展，正把人类带入知识经济的时代。知识将取代物质、能源和资本成为促进生产力发展的第一生产力。在这样一个新的形势下，传统的教育观念、手段和方法将面临巨大的挑战。社会的高度信息化和知识经济的蓬勃发展，使得课程教学的网络化、信息化是必然趋势，大学的英语教学应该摆脱传统的单一模式，将大学教学内容与高中内容相结合、课堂授课与课后自主学习相结合、光盘多媒体与网络教学相结合、第一课堂与第二课堂相结合，使教学满足学生个性化学习的实际需要，实现从以教师为中心、单纯传授语言知识和技能的教学模式，向以学生为中心、既传授一般的语言知识与技能，又注重培养语言运用能力和自主学习能力的教学模式的转变，从而增加学生自主学习的动力达到事半功倍的效果。 二、高校对英语教学的投入较少，师资力量不足 随着在校大学生数量的急剧增加，大学英语师资不足的矛盾日显突出。特别是一些地方性的普通高校，外教资源严重匮乏，这种现状一部分导致成为大学英语教师的门槛越来越低、绝大多数的新教师毕业后就立刻开始授课，使得大学英语教师的教学水平参差不齐，同时，这几年高等教育招生

I. Warm-up activities 1.Background information Chrysler Corporation (A) The Chrysler Corporation, founded in 1924, used to be one of the three largest American automobile manufacturers whose brands include both passenger and commercial vehicles such as Chrysler, Jeep? and Dodge. The two other largest American automobile manufacturers are General Motors and Ford. Chrysler Corporation (B) In addition to auto making, Chrysler is also engaged in financial services, providing loan services (mostly) to car buyers. In 1998 it merged with Daimler-Benz AG (of Germany) (best known for its Mercedes-Benz brand name) to become part of the DaimlerChrysler Corporation, which is jointly owned by European, U.S. and other international investors. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (A) A U.S. government agency, whose mission is to protect investors and maintain the integrity of the securities markets. The Commission was set up by the U.S. Congress in 1933 in response to “Black Monday”, the Great Stock Market Crash in 1929. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (B) Its purpose was to restore investor confidence in the U.S. capital markets by providing more structure and government oversight. It is based on the concept that all investors, whether large institutions or private individuals, should have access to certain basic facts about an investment prior to buying it. To achieve this, the SEC requires public companies to disclose meaningful financial and other information to the public, which provides a common pool of knowledge for all investors to use to judge for themselves if a company’s securities are a good investment. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (C) It is believed that only through the steady flow of timely, comprehensive and accurate information can people make sound investment decisions. At present the SEC is comprised of five presidentially-appointed Commissioners, four Divisions and 18 Offices, with a total of about 3,100 staff. The International Chamber of Commerce (A) The aim of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), founded in 1919, is to serve world business by promoting trade and investment, open markets for goods and services, and the free flow of capital. The International Chamber of Commerce (B) Its activities cover a broad spectrum, from arbitration and dispute resolution to making the case for open trade and the market economy system, business self-regulation, fighting corruption or combating commercial crime. The ICC is made of a World Council (its governing body) and individual national committees and groups. Individual companies, corporations, professional associations as well as individuals can also join the ICC as individual members. 2.Questions and answers 1)-Why do business students study professional ethics? People feel that bribery is increasing throughout the world. One day, business students will grow into managers of all ranks and in all fields. If they should offer or take bribes in their positions, corruption and unfair competition would result. In that case, normal economic order would be ruined, and people in business circles would have no commonly agreed principles to follow. To
