Further ThinkingSee PowerPoint9. Teaching Procedures:The first two periods (90m)1) (T Ss) Introduction to the contents of the unit (5m)Britain’s colonial expansion established the pre-conditions for the global use of English, taking the language from its island birthplace to settlements around the world. The English language has grown up in contact with many others making it a hybrid language that can rapidly evolve to meet new cultural and communicative needs. In the 20th century English was closely linked to the rise of the US as a superpower. Its influence has extendedbeyond language itself to economics, technology and culture. In the same period, the international importance of other European languages, especially French, declined. Languages were not equal in political or social status, particularly in multilingual contexts. From the trend, English seems set to play an ever more important role in world communication, international business, and social and cultural affairs.2) (Ss)Listening practice task: Lead-in listening for brainstorming (10m)3) (Ss←→Ss)Oral practice task: Speaking Practice referring the expressions in Communicative Tasks(10m)4) Passage A: (Ss←→Ss)The first reading: Understanding the general ideas of the passage (15m)Questions for thinking (5m)1. “Why does the author think of English as alingua franca for the smooth functioning of the EU institutions?”According to the author, for a smooth functioning of the EU institutions, the use of English as a lingua franca would be infinitely better.2. “What the author’s conclusion about English as a lingua franca?”English should be used as a lingua franca in Europe simply because it may be “owned” by all Europeans — not as a cultural symbol, but as a means of enabling understanding.(T Ss)Difficult sentences (8m)1. “Powerful translators’ lobbies fight for their raison d'etre”Paraphrase: The translators want to translate a variety of languages to make a living. Here, “raison d’etre” is a French w ord,which means reason for of justification of sb’s/sth’s existence.2. “In the name of the high ideal of linguistic equality a time-consuming, expensive and increasingly intractable translation machinery is maintained that is doing its best to translate the illusion of equality into illusions of multilingualism and translatability.”Paraphrase: For keeping the cumbersome illusion of making all the languages equal, some huge translation machinery is maintained to translate the various languages, which costs a lot of time and money.(T←→ Ss)Language Points (25m)(Ss←→ Ss)Summary of the Text (10m)The European Union(EU) decides to adopt a multi-linguistic approach in its organizations,therefore requiring all of its documents to be translated into each of the official languages of the EU. While this is a costly, and somewhat inefficient system, it does allow the EU to present an image of linguistic equality, which is symbolic of wider equality between its member states.In this article, the author severely challenges the EU’s language policy , by presenting the reasons why English would be a more appropriate choice as Europe’s lingua franca. He states that English is suitable due to its flexibility, its wide usage and is diversity.The author argues against the common fears that a widespread use of English in EU member states will change other European languages, or destroy the identities of these languages altogether. He also addresses the concern that English carries a cultural identity which will be used as a form of cultural domination overnon-native speaking countries. The author concludes that English has great potential for uniting the people of Europe, promoting mutual and could in fact strengthen their own national identities at the same time.The third period (45m)1) (Ss) Exercises 3, 4, 5, 6, (15m)2) (T←→Ss) Reading Skills Practice: Identifying tone by using the title of Passage B (5m)3) (Ss)Reading Passage B and completing Exercise 10, 11 (25m)4) (T←→Ss) Homework assignment12, 13, 14The fourth and fifth periods (90m)1) (Ss←→ Ss)Talk about Passage B (20m)2) (T←→Ss)Language Points of Passage B (20m)3) (Ss) Exercises 12, 13, 14 ,16, 17, 18 (30m)4) (T←→ Ss)Solve the questions students ask (15m)5) (T←→Ss)Homework assignment: Culture Salon (5m)The sixth period (45m)(Ss←→Ss)Discussion: Do you think Chinese English should be accepted as a variety of English1) Brainstorming (5m)2) Discussion (20m)3) Reporting (15m)4) Summarizing (5m)Unit Five Business Ethics1.

Teaching Procedures:The first two periods (90m)1)(T Ss) Teacher’s introduction of ethics andvirtue in business (10m)Business Ethics, according to Cambridge International Dictionary of English, is a system of accepted beliefs in business, which controls behavior, esp. such a system based on morals in business. It has been a very popular topic recently. Business ethics examines morality, honesty, and virtues, etc in business. More and more people, esp. some CEOs in big companies have realized the importance of business ethics by trial and error. On the other hand, the traditional focus of business ethics is on the morality of action. This results in conclusions about which business practices are acceptable and which are not. For example, employees have ethical rights. When a business practice violates these rights, this practice is unethical.a)(T←→Ss) The pre=listening material(15m)b)(T←→Ss)Teacher’s remark of thepassage A (5m)c)(Ss)Students’ skimming for the wholetext and do exercise 3 (15m)d)(T←→Ss)Some questions about thecontent are raised (25m)e)(T←→Ss)Word class transference (10m)f)(Ss←→Ss)The textual analysis (10m)The third period (45m)1)(Ss←→Ss)A check of exercises 4,5,6 &20 (15m)2)(Ss←→Ss) Oral Practice: Faithfulness in Business(1)T eacher’s summarization (5m)(2)T he present situation of marketingeconomy (5m)(3)V ocabulary laying-off (5m)(4)S tudents’ individual lecture (15m)The fourth and fifth periods (90m)1)(Ss←→Ss) Talk about the content ofpassage B (15m)2)(T←→Ss)Some involved sentences totranslate (10m)3)(T←→Ss)Language points (65m)The sixth period (45m)1)(T←→Ss)Check of the exercises ofPassage C and D (10m)2)(T←→Ss) Exercise of identifying theauthor’s purpose (the tone, point of view, attitude, etc.) (15m)3)(Ss←→Ss) Writing skills mastery: Threeparagraph Writing (Introduction, development and conclusion) (20m)Unit Six Psychological Health1.

Further ThinkingSee PowerPoint9. Teaching Procedures:The first two periods (90m)1) (T←→ Ss)Introduction to the contents of the unit (5m)Britain’s colonial expansion established the pre-conditions for the global use of English, taking the language from its island birthplace to settlements around the world. The English language has grown up in contact with many others making it a hybrid language that can rapidly evolve to meet new cultural and communicative needs. In the 20th century English was closely linked to the rise of the US as a superpower. Its influence has extended beyond language itself to economics, technology and culture. In the same period, the international importance of other European languages, especially French, declined. Languages were not equal in political or social status, particularly in multilingual contexts. From the trend, English seems set to play an ever more important role in world communication, international business, and social and cultural affairs.2) (Ss)Listening practice task: Lead-in listening for brainstorming (10m)3) (Ss←→ Ss)Oral practice task: Speaking Practice referring the expressions in Communicative Tasks(10m)4) Passage A: (Ss←→Ss)The first reading: Understanding the general ideas of the passage (15m)Questions for thinking (5m)1. “Why does the author think of English as a lingua franca for the smooth functioning of the EU institutions?”According to the author, for a smooth functioning of the EU institutions, the use of English as a lingua franca would be infinitely better.2. “What the author’s conclusion about English as a lingua franca?”English should be used as a lingua franca in Europe simply because it may be “owned” by all Europeans — not as a cultural symbol, but as a means of enabling understanding.(T←→ Ss)Difficult sentences (8m)1. “Powerful translators’ lobbies fight for their raison d'etre”Paraphrase: The translators want to translate a variety of languages to make a living. Here,“raison d’etre” is a French word, which means reason for of justification of sb’s/sth’s existence.2. “In the name of the high ideal of linguistic equality a time-consuming, expensive and increasingly intractable translation machinery is maintained that is doing its best to translate the illusion of equality into illusions of multilingualism and translatability.”Paraphrase: For keeping the cumbersome illusion of making all the languages equal, some huge translation machinery is maintained to translate the various languages, which costs a lot of time and money.(T←→ Ss)Language Points (25m)(Ss←→ Ss)Summary of the Text (10m)The European Union(EU) decides to adopt a multi-linguistic approach in its organizations, therefore requiring all of its documents to be translated into each of the official languages of the EU. While this is a costly, and somewhat inefficient system, it does allow the EU to present an image of linguistic equality, which is symbolic of wider equality between its member states.In this article, the author severely challenges the EU’s language policy , by presenting the reasons why English would be a more ap propriate choice as Europe’s lingua franca. He states that English is suitable due to its flexibility, its wide usage and is diversity.The author argues against the common fears that a widespread use of English in EU member states will change other European languages, or destroy the identities of these languages altogether. He also addresses the concern that English carries a cultural identity which will be used as a form of cultural domination over non-native speaking countries. The author concludes that English has great potential for uniting the people of Europe, promoting mutual and could in fact strengthen their own national identities at the same time.The third period (45m)1) (Ss) Exercises 3, 4, 5, 6, (15m)2) (T←→ Ss) Reading Skills Practice: Identifying tone by using the title of Passage B (5m)3) (Ss)Reading Passage B and completing Exercise 10, 11 (25m)4) (T←→ Ss)Homework assignment12, 13, 14The fourth and fifth periods (90m)1) (Ss←→ Ss)Talk about Passage B (20m)2) (T←→ Ss)Language Points of Passage B (20m)3) (Ss) Exercises 12, 13, 14 ,16, 17, 18 (30m)4) (T←→ Ss)Solve the questions students ask (15m)5) (T←→ Ss)Homework assignment: Culture Salon (5m)The sixth period (45m)(Ss←→Ss)Discussion: Do you think Chinese English should be accepted as a variety of English1) Brainstorming (5m)2) Discussion (20m)3) Reporting (15m)4) Summarizing (5m)Unit Five Business Ethics1.

Teaching Procedures:The first two periods (90m)1)(T→Ss) Teacher’s introductio n of ethics and virtue in business (10m)Business Ethics, according to Cambridge International Dictionary of English, is a system of accepted beliefs in business, which controls behavior, esp. such a system based on morals in business. It has been a very popular topic recently. Business ethics examines morality, honesty, and virtues, etc in business. More and more people, esp. some CEOs in big companies have realized the importance of business ethics by trial and error. On the other hand, the traditional focus of business ethics is on the morality of action. This results in conclusions about which business practices are acceptable and which are not. For example, employees have ethical rights. When a business practice violates these rights, this practice is unethical.a)(T←→Ss) The pre=listening material (15m)b)(T←→Ss)Teacher’s remark of the passage A (5m)c)(Ss)Students’ skimming for the whole text and do exercise 3 (15m)d)(T←→Ss)Some questions about the content are raised (25m)e)(T←→Ss)Word class transference (10m)f)(S s←→Ss)The textual analysis (10m)The third period (45m)1)(S s←→Ss)A check of exercises 4,5,6 &20 (15m)2)(S s←→Ss) Oral Practice: Faithfulness in Business(1)Teacher’s summarization (5m)(2)The present situation of marketing economy (5m)(3)Vocabulary laying-off (5m)(4)Students’ individual lecture (15m)The fourth and fifth periods (90m)1)(S s←→Ss) Talk about the content of passage B (15m)2)(T←→Ss)Some involved sentences to translate (10m)3)(T←→Ss)Language points (65m)The sixth period (45m)1)(T←→Ss)Check of the exercises of Passage C and D (10m)2)(T←→Ss) Exercise of identifying the author’s purpose (the tone, point of view,attitude, etc.) (15m)3)(S s←→Ss) Writing skills mastery: Three paragraph Writing (Introduction,development and conclusion) (20m)Unit Six Psychological Health1.
