V. Let?s Talk
The Origin of the Song “Happy Birthday to Y ou”
The story of the song “Happy Birthday to Y ou” Began as a sweet one, but later became bitter. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at a kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the principal of the same school, wrote a song together for the children, entitled “Good Morning to All”. When Mildred combined her musical talents with her sister?s knowledge in the area of kindergarten education, …Good Morning to All”was sure to be a success. The sister published the song in a collection entitled “Song Stories of the Kindergarten”in 1893. Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia University?s Teachers College, a gentleman by the name Robert Coleman published the song, without the sisters?permission. He added a second part, which is the familiar “Happy Birthday to Y ou”.Mr. Coleman?s addition of the second part made the song popular and, finally, the sisters” original first part disappeared. “Happy Birthday to Y ou”had altogether replaced the sisters?original song “Good Morning to All”. In 1916 Patty took legal action against Mr. Coleman. In court, she succeeded in proving that hey were the real owners of the song.

Possible Retelling for the Teacher?s Reference
The story of “Happy Birthday to Y ou” was a nice, sweet on eat the very beginning, but later turned into a bitter one. There were two sisters: one was Mildred Hill, and the other Patty Hill. The former had great musical talents, while the latter had knowledge of kindergarten education. Bu combining their abilities, the two produced a song called “Good Morning to All”. It was a success, and later published in a collection of songs for kindergartens.
Thirty-one years later a man named Coleman published the song without the sisters? permission. To make things worse, he added a second part, which is the present “Happy Birthday to Y ou”. This new song soon became popular and eventually it replaced the sisters? first part altogether. Then, in 1916, Patty took legal action against Coleman. In court she managed to prove that she and her
sister really owned the song.

Task 2: When was music first sent down a telephone line?
So you think downloading music from the Internet through a phone line is a really cool modern thing? Not so. In 1896, Thaddeus Cahill Filed a patent on the instrument for transmitting music electronically, and until 1914 he sent music signals down telephone lines with this instrument. And he wasn?t even the first. Elisha Gray transmitted music over a telephone line in 1876, which was the same year the telephone was invented. Gray invented the first electronic music instrument in 1874, calling it the “Musical Telegraph”. Alexander Graham Bell also designed an experimental “Electric Harp”for speech to be transmitted over a telephone line using technology similar to Gray?s. Bell was a speech teacher for the deaf. In 1879 he created an instrument to measure hearing loss. That is why the degrees of loudness came to be measured in bels or decibels.

Task 3: Thank Y ou for the Music
I?m nothing special, in fact I?m a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you?re probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
…Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I?m so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud
So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I?m singing
Thanks for all the joy they?re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honestly
What would life be
Without a song or a dance what are we
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me
Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I?ve often wondered, how did it all start
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can
Well, whoever it was, I?m a fan
So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I?m singing

Task 1: Waiting for the New Harry Potter Movie
Amy: I?m so excited about finally seeing this movie!
Peter: Me too. I?m crazy about Harry Potter. Have you heard that J.K. Rowling has added another book to the series?
Amy: She?s already written Book Seven? I?m still waiting for Book Five…
Peter: I know. Who isn?t? At least we have the movies to watch in the meantime.
Amy: By the way, have you seen the trailer yet?
Peter: Y eah. It was great! I think the movie itself will be really scary.
Amy: It surely will! All that writing on the wall in blood…It scares me to death just to think about it!
Both the girl and the boy are excited/crazy about the movie and the hero Harry Potter. The boy heard that the writer J.K. Rowling has written the latest book, which is Book Seven, though the girl is still waiting for Book Five. The boy has been the trailer and believes the film will be scary. The girl shares that view because of the writing on the wall in blood.
Task 2: A Great Actor
There was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After several years of searching, he finally found a theater that was willing to give him a try. The director said, “This is the most important part, and it has only one line. At the opening you walk onto stage carrying a rose. Y ou hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, smell it deeply and then say the line on praise of the rose: …Ah, the sweet smell of my love.?” The actor was excited. All day long before the play he practiced his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, looked at the audience, and with great emotion said the line, “Ah, the sweet smell of my love.” The audience exploded in laughter. Only the director was furious! “Ahhhhhh! Y ou damned fool!”he cried. “Y ou?ve ruined my play! Y ou?ve ruined me!”The actor was puzzled, “What happened? Did I forget my line?”“No!” shouted the director. “Y ou forget the rose!”

Task 3: Movie Reviews
I love movies! And after I see them, I like to comment on them. These are movies I saw this year I would like to recommend: Among comedies I highly recommend “Monsoon Wedding”. It?s an Indian movie. The story is about an Indian wedding. Preparations for the wedding bring out funny and sad situations touching on love and a past rape. This movie shows some of the wonderful customs of India, and the importance of family and love. It?s great!
Among dramas, I like “Adaptation”. It is an excellent movie! But for me the first part of the movie was too fast to follow. I hope to see it again on DVD with captions.
“The Pianist” is set in the Second World War. It?s about a young Polish-Jewish pianist, who lives in Warsaw with his family. The Nazis sent his family to die in the concentration camps. He was safe, but would have died without unusually good luck and the kindness of a few non-Jews. This is a powerful movie with thought-provoking themes.
“Rabbit-Proof Fence” is set in the 1930s in Australia, and it?s based on real events. It is about three native girls who are separated from their families by the racist police who send them to special centers. There the girls are taught practical skills, and the government tries to integrate them into white Australian society. They can away from the camp and walked 1,500 miles to find their mothers. This is a sad, touching story that you should not miss.

So he was able to get the tickets for free.

John: Really? But I think this Star Wars episode was incredible!
Laura: Why do you think so?
John: Well, one of the most spectacular things about it was the special effects. State-of-the-art special effects were the main reason for the success of the previous episodes.

B: I thought it was just OK. Why do you think so?
A: Well, it?s so interesting that the lives of the lions were similar to the lives of human beings.
B: Y ou?re right. The murder in The Lion King was almost the same as the murder in the Shakespearean play Hamlet.
Model 3 The plot is first-class.
John: It?s kind of cool that they still used the same Star Wars theme song for this movie. Laura: Y eah! It just reminds me of the previous Star Wars scenes.
John: I know exactly what you mean! Hearing that song makes me think of the past.
Laura: I think the plot was first-class. But I don?t think the character development was that strong.
John: Do you think that has anything to do with the casting of the movie?
Laura: No, the casting was great; the actors are excellent, but I think the acting was a little weak.
They just didn?t have a lot of funny or meaningful lines.
John: Well, maybe, but I liked the little kid that played “Skywalker”. I can?t imagine anyone else playing that part.
Laura: Y eah, I liked him too. He?s soooo cute!

V. Let?s Talk
Alfred Hitchcock
Alfred Hitchcock was a British director. His movies frequently show innocent people caught up in situations beyond their control or even understanding.
Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense in his movies. In surprise, the director provides the viewer with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the movie do not know, and then skillfully builds up tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth. Hitchcock had a great sense of humor. Once at a French airport, a suspicious customs official looked at Hitchcock?s passport, which was marked simply PRODUCER. The curious official asked, “And what do you produce?”“Gooseflesh.”replied Hitchcock.
Alfred Hitchcock always managed to make a brief appearance in his movies: He was sometimes getting on a bus, or crossing a street, pr walking in front of a store, or across the courtyard in an apartment. However, for the movie Lifeboat in 1944, he was faced with a difficult problem. The entire movie was set in a lifeboat out at sea, and there were only a few characters in the boat. Originally, he wanted to float by as a dead body, but he was afraid he?d sink! His clever solution was to place a photograph of himself in a newspaper that one of the characters read during the course of the movie.

Task 2: An Interview with J.K. Rowling
Q: How did you get the idea for Harry Potter?
A: I was traveling on a train between Manchester and London and the idea for Harry just fell into my head. At that point it was essentially the idea for a body wh o didn?t know he was a wizard. Q: Did you always plan to write Harry?s story in more than one book? If so, how many?
A: I always conceived it as a seven-book series because I decided that it would take seven years, from age eleven to seventeen, inclusive, to train as a wizard, and each of the books would deal with one year of Harry?s life at the school.
Q: Any clues about the next book?
A: I don?t want to i\give anything away, but I tell you that the books are getting darker. Harry?s going to have quite a bit to deal with as he gets older. Sorry if they get too scary!
Q: Of the many things you must have heard people say about Harry Potter, what are some of your favorites?
A: My very favorite was from a twelve-year-old Scottish girl who came to hear me read at the Edinburgh book festival. At the end of the festival, the queue for signing was very long. When the girl finally reached me, she said, “I didn?t W ANT there to be so many people here, because this is MY books!” That is exactly how I feel about my favorite books. Nobody else has a right to know them; let alone like them!

Interviewer: Hello, Robert and Richard, I?d like to ask you something about movies. Do you prefer going to the theater or watching movies on video at home?
Robert: I prefer, personally, going to the theater, because I believe there are certain movies that come over better when you see them in a large theater. The sound effect is much
better.

Interviewer: There?re many different movie genres, for example, science fiction, action, comedy, romance. What?s your personal favorite?
Robert: My favorite would be action movies.
Richard: And mine would be nice movies that touch me deeply.
Interviewer: How do you like the old black and white movies of the forties, and fifties compared with the modern blockbusters?
Robert: For their time, the movies of the forties and fifties were excellent. But try to compare them with today?s technology, and you?ll find there isn?t anything to compare. It?s so
superior today.

Task 2: Problem of Meeting People
Before the wedding, the groom went up the minister with an unusual offer. “Look, I?ll give you $100 if you?ll change the wedding vows. When you get to the part where I?m expected to promise to …love, respect and obey her,?…giving up all others,? and …be true to her forever,? I?d be happy if you?d just leave that part out.” He gave the minister the cash and walked away with a light heart. The wedding day arrived, and the bride and groom reached that part of the ceremony where they would make vows to each other. When it was time for the groom?s vows, the minister looked the young man in the eye and said, “Will you promise to kneel before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and make a vow before God and your lovely wife that you will never even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?”The groom was shocked, but in spite of himself, he said in a low voice, “Y es, I will.” Then the groom whispered to the minister, “I thought we had a deal.” The minister put the $100 into his hand and whispered back, “She made me a much better offer.”

Task 3: Long Distance Friendships
American weddings are not always the same. I?d like to show you pictures of my wedding. When we got engaged, an announcement was published in the newspaper.

About a month before the wedding, we sent out wedding invitations to relatives and friends. This is the church where we had the wedding. My father gave me to my future husband. Then the minister started the wedding ceremony. He greeted the guests, and talked about the meaning of marriage. Next, we exchanged vows and gave each other rings. This is the main part of the wedding. After the vows, the minister prayed for us. Then the minister declared us husband and wife, and we kissed each other. Here is my sister, who was a bridesmaid. This is the bouquet I carried. Traditionally, the unmarried women gather after the wedding, and the bride throws her bouquet to them. The one who catches it will, according to tradition, be the next one to get married. At the reception, we cut the wedding cake and fed each other bites of the cake. Then we toasted each other with champagne. Finally the reception was over, and the minister signed the marriage certificate and we were legally married.

Model 1 I just broke up with Alice!
John: Hey, Se-Jin, what?s wrong with you? Y ou look so down!
Se-Jin: Nothing.
John: I know it?s not your studies, so it must be girl trouble. Y ou must have a broken heart.
Se-Jin: Well, you?re right. I just broke up with Alice.
John: Oh, I?m sorry. I thought you two were made for each other.
Se-Jin: Well, you never know. I want to settle down, but she wants a career while she?s still
young.
John: Well, it?s always difficult to choose between career and family.
Se-Jin: Maybe you?re right.
John: I don?t know what to say to comfort you, but try to cheer up!
Se-Jin: Y eah, but it?s hard to forget her at the moment. Y ou know, we were together for almost three years.
John: There?s lots more fish in the sea and you?ll find your perfect match!

Mary: Maybe you?re right.

Dating
Before marriage, younger Americans date each other, that is, they often go out together. Casual dating usually begins in the early teens, and in the late teens a pattern of steady dating develops. There is a great possibility that one goes to a dance with one person, to a football game with another, and to a picnic with a third. Sometimes two couples go out together. This is known as “double dating.”Group dating is also popular among young people. Large groups of boys and girls may go around together. Y oung people may go out together for a long time, which is, in effect, a public statement of their intention to marry. Men and women go out together a great deal, especially those in cities. This is “adult dating.”They ski together, dine together, either at restaurants or in each other?s homes. The American dating system is a rather casual one. Often young Americans who hardly know each other go out on dates. It is also acceptable for them to arrange a “blind date”, that is, a date between two young people who have not met before.

Task 1: Finding the Right Type of Girl
Keith: Hey, Peter! Y ou?ve been in the room all night. Get out and dance with someone like that babe over there.
Peter: No way, Keith! She?s the intellectual type. My pickup line just won?t work with her. Keith: Oh, come on, man! What kind of girl do you like?
Peter: I want a girl that gentle and mild, and that babe is not the right type.
Keith: Times are changing, and you?ll never find a woman that will shine your shoes and fill your beer mug all the time. Wake up.
Peter: Oh really? I still prefer women that stay home, cook, clean, and take care of the kids. Keith: Okay, then what will you do after you get home from work?
Peter: Hmm. Eat, watch TV, and throw our the trash.
Keith: Wit, wait, wait. I can?t believe my ears. Y ou?ll never find a wife.

Task 2: He thinks I?m God.
A young woman brings home her fiancéto meet her parents. After dinner, her mother tells her father to find out about the young man?s plans. The father invites the fiancéto his study for a drink.
“So what are your plans?” the father asks the young man.
“I am a Bible student,” he replies.
“A Bible student. Hmm.” The father says. “Good, but what will you do to provide my daughter with a nice house such as she?s accustomed to?”
“I will study,”: the young man replies, “and God will provide for us.”
“And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring such as she deserves?” asks the father. “I will concentrate on my studies,” the Y oungman replies, “and God will provide for us.”
“And children?” asks the father. “How will you support children?”
“Don?t worry, sir. God will provide,” replies the fiancé.
The conversation goes on like this, and each time the father questions him, the young man insists that God will provide. Later, the mother asks, “How did it go, honey?”
The father answers, “He had no job and no plans, but the good news is he thinks I?m God.”

Task 1: The Influence of Advertising
Richard: Dad, I need a pair of new shoes for an important basketball game. My old ones look kind of funny.
Father: Funny! We just bought those last spring. There?s a lot of life left in them.
Richard: But look at this ad with Y ao Ming. He says these shoes give him extra spring. Father: Y ao Ming is so tall that he doesn?t need extra spring. Anyway, he makes money than I do. And they probably give him millions of dollars to wear those shoes.
Richard: But if you bought me the shoes, I?d wear them for nothing. And I?d have that extra spring.
Father: Do you think Y ao Ming reached the top just because of the shoes he wears? Or was it something else?
Richard: Y ou mean like hard work, dedication, that sort of thing?

One day just before closing time, John rushed into a TV store to buy a color TV set with the money he had saved for three months. The friendly shop assistant was waiting for the day?s last and 100th customer to reach his sales target for his bonus, so he warmly greeted John and showed him the various models on display. He asked John to see how sharp and colorful the imagine on the screen was. At that moment, a new commercial came onto the screen, introducing a popular brand of camera as well as some beautiful pictures it had taken. The camera and pictures attracted John. He suddenly changed his mind and told the shop assistant: “Thank you for the TV commercial. Now I have to hurry to the camera store to get that camera.”

They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language. 4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with. 5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs. 6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before. 7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary. 8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, tho ugh in two different situations and with two different feelings.

Instead, they prefer to start their own businesses and realize their self-value through their own wisdom and efforts. Young entrepreneurship is the source of national economic vitality in the future. The success of entrepreneurs not only creates fortune, increases job opportunities, improves people’s life, but it is also good for the country in the long term. Entrepreneurs are a driving force in upgrading China’s economy. Especially for the time being, our country is encouraging people to start their own businesses and make innovations and giving policy support for medium and small businesses. This further arouses young people’s enthusiasm to start their own businesses. Unit 2 Translate the following paragraph into English 实现中华民族伟大复兴（rejuvenation)是近代以来中国人民最伟大的梦想，我称之为“中国梦”，其基本内涵是实现国家富强、民族振兴、人民幸福。中国梦，是让每一个积极进取的中国人形成世世代代的信念：只要经过不懈的奋斗便能获得更好的生活。人们必须通过自己的勤奋、勇气、创意和决心迈向繁荣，而不是依赖于社会和他人的援助。每个中国人都是中国梦的参与者和创造者。中国梦是民族的梦，也是每个中国人的梦。 Realizing the great national rejuvenation, which we define as the Chinese Dream, has been the greatest Chinese expectation since modern times. It basically means achieving prosperity for the country, renewal of the nation and happiness for the people, thus ensuring that every enterprising Chinese carries, generation after generation, the firm conviction that a better life is accomplished through persistent effort. People should achieve their prosperity through diligence, courage, creativity and determination instead of aid from society or other people. Each individual is a participant and a designer in the cause of realizing the Chinese Dream, for it is a dream not only for the entire nation but also for every Chinese. Unit 3 Translate the following paragraph into English 水墨画（ink and wash painting）是中国独具特色的传统艺术形式之一，是中国国画的代表。它大约始于唐代，兴盛于宋代和元代，距今已有一千多年的历史，其间经历了不断的发展、提高和完善。水墨画的创作工具和材料是具有浓厚中国特色的毛笔、宣纸和墨，其作品特点也与此紧密相关。例如，水和墨相互调和，使作品具有干湿浓淡的层次。水墨和宣纸的交融渗透也使画作善于表现丰富的意向，从而达到独特的审美效果。水墨画在中国绘画史上具有很高的地位，甚至被认为是衡量东方绘画艺术水平的标准。 Ink and wash painting, one of the unique traditional art forms of China, is representative of Chinese painting. It began around the time of the Tang Dynasty, and then prospered in the Song and Yuan dynasties. With a history of over one thousand years, it has experienced constant development, improvement and perfection. The tools and materials used to create ink and wash painting, i.e. brushes, rice paper, and ink, are characteristic of Chinese culture and closely related to the features of the paintings. For example, the mixing of water and ink creates different shades of dryness, wetness, thickness and thinness. The integration and infiltration of water, ink, and rice paper enables such paintings to convey rich images, and hence to achieve unique aesthetic effects.
