Unit 1无名英雄：职业父亲意味着什么？在我们的孪生女儿出生后的第一次“约会〞时，我和丈夫一起去看了一部名为?玩具故事?的电影。
我们很喜欢这部片子，但随后我丈夫问道：“父亲在哪儿呢？〞起初我还认为因为一个小小的失误而批评一部很吸引人的家庭影片似乎是太偏狭了。
可后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。
父亲不仅没有出现，他甚至没有被提到——尽管家中有婴儿，说明他不可能离开太长时间。
影片给人的感觉是，父亲出现与否似乎是个极次要的细节，甚至不需要做任何解释。
新闻媒体倾向于把父亲的边缘化，这只是一个例子，它反映了在美国发生的巨大的社会变化。
大卫?布兰肯霍恩在?无父之国?一书中将这种倾向称之为“无需父亲〞观念。
职业母亲〔我想这应是与无职业母亲相对而言的〕奋斗的故事从媒体上无尽无休地轰击着我们。
与此同时，媒体上绝大多数有关父亲的故事又集中表现暴力的丈夫或没长进的父亲。
看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候〔我疑心这一说法的可靠性，因为“家务〞的定义中很少包括清扫屋顶的雨水沟、给汽车换机油或其它一些典型地由男人们做的事〕，或者是在他们去世的时候。
当布兰肯霍恩先生就“顾家的好男人〞一词的词义对父亲们进行调查时，许多父亲都答复这一词语只有在葬礼上听到。
这种“无需父亲〞综合症的一个例外是家庭全职父亲所受到的媒体的赞扬。
我并非暗指这些家庭全职父亲作出的承诺不值得人们的支持，我只是想指出在实际生效的双重标准：家庭全职父亲受到人们的赞扬，而家庭全职母亲和养家活口的父亲，所得到文化上的认同却很少，甚至完全得不到。
我们用来讨论父亲角色〔即没长进的父亲〕的话语本身就显示出人们对大多数男人默默无闻而自豪地履行对家庭承当的责任缺乏赏识。
我们几乎从来没听到“职业父亲〞这一说法，在人们呼吁应该考虑给予工作者在工作地点上更大的灵活性时，很少有人认为这种呼吁不但适用于女子，同样也适应于男子。
我们这个社会表现出似乎家庭职责对父亲来说并不象对母亲那么重要——似乎事业上的满足就是男人生活的全部。

Unit 1无名英雄：职业父亲意味着什么？在我们的孪生女儿出生后的第一次“约会”时，我和丈夫一起去看了一部名为《玩具故事》的电影.我们很喜欢这部片子,但随后我丈夫问道：“父亲在哪儿呢?”起初我还认为因为一个小小的失误而批评一部很吸引人的家庭影片似乎是太偏狭了。
可后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。
父亲不仅没有出现，他甚至没有被提到-—尽管家中有婴儿，说明他不可能离开太长时间.影片给人的感觉是，父亲出现与否似乎是个极次要的细节，甚至不需要做任何解释。
新闻媒体倾向于把父亲的边缘化,这只是一个例子，它反映了在美国发生的巨大的社会变化。
大卫？布兰肯霍恩在《无父之国》一书中将这种倾向称之为“无需父亲”观念。
职业母亲（我想这应是与无职业母亲相对而言的）奋斗的故事从媒体上无尽无休地轰击着我们。
与此同时，媒体上绝大多数有关父亲的故事又集中表现暴力的丈夫或没出息的父亲。
看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候（我怀疑这一说法的可靠性，因为“家务”的定义中很少包括打扫屋顶的雨水沟、给汽车换机油或其它一些典型地由男人们做的事),或者是在他们去世的时候.当布兰肯霍恩先生就“顾家的好男人”一词的词义对父亲们进行调查时,许多父亲都回答这一词语只有在葬礼上听到.这种“无需父亲”综合症的一个例外是家庭全职父亲所受到的媒体的赞扬。
我并非暗指这些家庭全职父亲作出的承诺不值得人们的支持,我只是想指出在实际生效的双重标准：家庭全职父亲受到人们的赞扬，而家庭全职母亲和养家活口的父亲,所得到文化上的认同却很少,甚至完全得不到。
我们用来讨论父亲角色（即没出息的父亲）的话语本身就显示出人们对大多数男人默默无闻而自豪地履行对家庭承担的责任缺乏赏识。
我们几乎从来没听到“职业父亲”这一说法，在人们呼吁应该考虑给予工作者在工作地点上更大的灵活性时,很少有人认为这种呼吁不但适用于女子，同样也适应于男子。
我们这个社会表现出似乎家庭职责对父亲来说并不象对母亲那么重要—- 似乎事业上的满足就是男人生活的全部。

Unit 1无名英雄：职业父亲意味着什么？在我们的孪生女儿出生后的第一次“约会”时，我和丈夫一起去看了一部名为《玩具故事》的电影。
我们很喜欢这部片子，但随后我丈夫问道：“父亲在哪儿呢？”起初我还认为因为一个小小的失误而批评一部很吸引人的家庭影片似乎是太偏狭了。
可后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。
父亲不仅没有出现，他甚至没有被提到——尽管家中有婴儿，说明他不可能离开太长时间。
影片给人的感觉是，父亲出现与否似乎是个极次要的细节，甚至不需要做任何解释。
新闻媒体倾向于把父亲的边缘化，这只是一个例子，它反映了在美国发生的巨大的社会变化。
大卫?布兰肯霍恩在《无父之国》一书中将这种倾向称之为“无需父亲”观念。
职业母亲（我想这应是与无职业母亲相对而言的）奋斗的故事从媒体上无尽无休地轰击着我们。
与此同时，媒体上绝大多数有关父亲的故事又集中表现暴力的丈夫或没出息的父亲。
看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候（我怀疑这一说法的可靠性，因为“家务”的定义中很少包括打扫屋顶的雨水沟、给汽车换机油或其它一些典型地由男人们做的事），或者是在他们去世的时候。
当布兰肯霍恩先生就“顾家的好男人”一词的词义对父亲们进行调查时，许多父亲都回答这一词语只有在葬礼上听到。
这种“无需父亲”综合症的一个例外是家庭全职父亲所受到的媒体的赞扬。
我并非暗指这些家庭全职父亲作出的承诺不值得人们的支持，我只是想指出在实际生效的双重标准：家庭全职父亲受到人们的赞扬，而家庭全职母亲和养家活口的父亲，所得到文化上的认同却很少，甚至完全得不到。
我们用来讨论父亲角色（即没出息的父亲）的话语本身就显示出人们对大多数男人默默无闻而自豪地履行对家庭承担的责任缺乏赏识。
我们几乎从来没听到“职业父亲”这一说法，在人们呼吁应该考虑给予工作者在工作地点上更大的灵活性时，很少有人认为这种呼吁不但适用于女子，同样也适应于男子。
我们这个社会表现出似乎家庭职责对父亲来说并不象对母亲那么重要——似乎事业上的满足就是男人生活的全部。

Unit 1 Men and Women’s PrejudicesFamous QuoteThere can be no two opinions as to what a highbrow is. He is the man or woman of thoroughbred intelligence who rides his mind at a gallop across country in pursuit of an idea.—Virginia WoolfVirginia Woolf (1882-1941): A British novelist, essayist, critic, publisher and feminist. Her most famous works include the novels Mrs Dalloway(1925), To theLighthouse(1927) and Orlando(1928), and the book-length essay A Room of One’sOwn(1929), with its famous dictum, “A woman must have money and a room of herown if she is to write fiction.”Unit OverviewDo men and women really come from the different planets? If not, why have they, for centuries, vilified one another? This may all result from the prejudices against each other. After the women’s movement and men’s movement, we are now on the way to a better understanding of men and women in terms of their differences and equality. In this unit, you will find out women’s social status, differences and similarities between the two sexes, and their new social roles. Students will consider the gender issue through listening, viewing and reading. A variety of activities will inspire them to talk about gender roles and gender equality using the words and expressions in this unit. And finally, they will conduct a survey on ‘Gender Consciousness in Advertisements’.In this unit, you will∙consider the gender issues through listening, viewing and reading∙discuss the gender roles and gender equality through guided activities∙conduct a survey on ‘Gender Consciousness in Advertisements’∙pick up useful words and expressions∙learn to reflect on your own learning and comment on that of your peers∙learn to think independently, critically and creativelyBackground Information“A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction”. Eighty years ago Virginia Woolf published these words in an essay that was to become one of the seminal feminist texts of our age. “A Room of One’s Own” has shaped the way in which creative achievement by men and women is viewed, and provided a point of reference for generations of female writers. Woolf uses the ‘room’ as a symbol for privacy, leisure time, and financial independence, all of which have been historically lacking for women. Women today are still struggling to find the mental and physical space for their creativity and advocating for equal rights with men in society.In response to the Women’s Movement, there arose a Men’s Movement. Three books have catalyzed the mythopoetic me n’s movement: Robert Bly’s Iron John, Sam Keen’s Fire in the Belly,and Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette’s King, Warrior, Magician, Lover . All posit a stable entity called “male identity” and see initiation as a key to achieving it.Wherever these two movements will lead, it is time we took a new look on the gender roles and female-male relations.Global Gender Gap Index Rank 2009 Country Score Rank 2008 1 Iceland 0.828 4 2 Finland 0.825 2 3 Norway 0.823 1 4 Sweden 0.814 3 5 New Zealand 0.788 5 6 South Africa 0.770 22 7 Denmark 0.763 7 8 Ireland 0.760 8 9 Philippines 0.758 6 10Lesotho0.75016* 0-1 scale: 0= inequality, 1= equalityTopic Preview1.

That’s the question raised by a thought-provoking study, ‘The Paradox of Declining Female Happiness’ released last month. The research showed that over the past 35 years women’s happiness has declined, both compared to the past and relative to men even though, by most objective measures, the lives of women in the U.S. have improved in recent decades.The research, by University of Pennsylvania economists Betsey Stevenson and Justin Wolfers, released by the National Bureau of Economic Research, found the decline in happiness to be pervasive among women across a variety of demographic groups. The researchers measured similar declines in happiness among women who were single parents and married parents. They cast doubt on the hypothesis that trends in marriage and divorce, single parenthood or work/family balance are at the root of the happiness declines among women.One theory for the decline in happiness is that expectations for workplace and general advancement were raised too high by the women’s movement and women might feel inadequate for not having it all.The researchers acknowledge that is a possibility. They think that If the women’s movement raised women’s expectations faster than society was able to meet them, the women would be more likely be disappointed by their actual life experiences. But the researchers also add that things could change for the better, a s women’s expectations move into alignment with their experiences, this decline in happiness may reverse.Adapted from/juggle/2009/06/22/why-arent-women-happier/tab/article/Video StudioWord Bank1. ingrained Adjsomething firmly established and therefore difficult to change 根深蒂固的2. psyche n. s omeone’s mind or their basic nature, which controls their attitudes and behavior 心灵3. mathematician n. someone who studies or teaches mathematics, or is a specialist in mathematics 数学老师，数学家4. physicist n. someone who studies or works in physics 物理学家5.cite v.to mention something as an example, especially one that supports, proves or explains an idea or situation 引证6.coefficient n.the number by which something that varies is multiplied 系数 7. calculusn.the branch of mathematics that is concerned with limits and with the differentiation and integration of functions 微积分Task 1 Matching & PredictingTeaching Tips1.

But is it true? The lack of women mathematicians, engineers and physicists has often been cited as proof of a difference in the sexes in math performance. But today a team of researchers writing in the journal Science says the conventional wisdom is completely wrong. With our closer look, here is ABC’s Ned Potter.“Oh, oh, look, look, we can do it.”15 years ago, it was an issue that filled the headlines that by high school, girls were falling 50 points behind boys on the SAT college entrance exam. (It’s the coefficient of A) Here’s part of a story of ours from 1994.“For anytime I see math, I just, I try and stay away from it.”But somet hing’s changed. This is Ramona ; she was a baby when we did that first story. Now she is building robots in a special course of the New Jersey Institute of Technology. And she says she loves the stuff.“What is it about math that you like?”“The fact that I understand it so cruising like sometimes I don’t have to study to actually get it. It just comes natural to me.”Researchers looked at test scores from more than 7 million kids grades 2 to 11, and whatever differences there used to be, they are now gone.What’s happened? Among other things, hi -tech has turned cool with everyone texting and downloading, and some people getting very rich. “Plans need a g as called . . .”And teachers have been reaching out aggressively to girls, urging them to get in on the action. “500 points for you.”Being interested in science, engineering and technology is not, does not make you a geek, and as a matter of fact, it’s the geeks who rule the world.The result, for the first time girls are taking math as often as boys. “I feel like I am learning a lot more this year.”We are not born knowing how to do calculus. And when girls take classes at the same rate as boys, we tend to get a narrowing of the gender gap. Most of America’s engineers are still men, but that’smath-related subjects.3. Teachers have reached out aggressively to the girls, and urged them to get in on the action .changing. Half of the kids who go on to get math degrees are now female.Ned Potter, ABC News, Newark, New JerseySource:/Technology/story?id=5441728&page=2Notes:1. SAT: The SAT test is a college preparatory exam devised to give an idea of a student’s competency with basic skills in mathematics, reading and writing. Since the early 20th century, the SAT test has been a major source of information for colleges and has served as a benchmark of public education.2. Geek: Originally it means a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake. Now it often refers to an enthusiast or expert especially in a technological field or activity.Speaking WorkshopTeaching Tips1.This section is designed to draw students’attention to useful expressions and structures in thislesson.2.Encourage students to use these expressions and structures in the following speaking activities.

But a recent study shows the gender gap in math performance has disappeared. The change may result from the fact that some institutes offer tailored courses to girls and teachers have reached out aggressively to girls, urging them to take math classes. Besides, hi-tech has turned cool, and geeky role models show students that math is the gateway to a future in technology. This message seems to be working. As a result, girls take classes at the same rate as boys nowadays, and we tend to get a narrowing gender gap.While most of America’s engineers are still men, that demographic is shifting. Half of the students who continue on to get math degrees are now female.Task 2 Solving the ProblemTeaching Tips1.This speaking activity is designed to encourage students to think creatively about how to solvereal life problems with the knowledge they have acquired in this lesson.2.Ask students to form groups of four or five and assign them different roles.3.Encourage students to u se as many phrases from the “Expressions & Structures to Use” box aspossible in their role play.4.Monitor the process and provide appropriate assistance when necessary.Work with your peers on the situation below and try to come up with a solution to the problem described.

One student should act as an HR manager of a giant telecommunicationscompany, who is hunting for a Sales Manager for its business development in China. The company engages in telecommunication equipment and services, and has been competing fiercely with its rivals for the market share in China. The others should act as applicants of both sexes. In a job interview, the candidates should try every means to convince the HR manager of his/her own competence for the post. Taking factors as the candidates qualities and labour cost into consideration, the HR manager should make the decision and tell why this is so.2.You have 15 minutes to discuss within your own group.3.Several groups will be selected to present their role plays.

According to Professor Hyde, why do girls lag behind their male counterparts in math?Answer: Their parents have lower expectation of their success and that affects their confidence.3.According to Professor Hyde, what accounts for the gender differences in society?Answer:1) Society’s expectation of how men and women should behave shape people’s attitudes and guide their behaviours.2) Over-inflating claims of gender differences exercise influence on people’s psychology.ScriptMen may be from Venus tooMen and women might be on the same planetary wavelength after all. According to PsychologistProfessor Janet Hyde at the University of Wisconsin, men and women are more alike than different in personality, communication, cognitive ability and leadership than is generally believed.The studies looked at cognitive abilities, such as the ability to do mathematics, verbal and nonverbal communication, aggression, leadership, self-esteem, moral reasoning and motor behaviour, such as throwing distance and found large gender differences in throwing distance, and attitudes about casual sex, and a moderate difference in aggression. But for most psychological characteristics, she found no differences between men and women.Hyde found evidence that differences between men and women are linked to society’s expectation of how they should behave. For instance, women smiled more than men when observed but this was not the case when they thought they were not being observed. Hyde says the findings provide strong evidence against the idea that psychological differences between men and women are “large and stable”.Besides the social expectations, over-inflating claims of differences between men and women can be damaging. After examining the gender differences in math performance in high school, Hyde revealed that it could be due to parents having lower expectations of their daughters’ s uccess in math and thus affecting her self-confidence and performance.She also found women’s success as workplace leaders can also be hindered if they go against the caring and nurturing stereotype.So it’s really amazing how people’s perceptions of them selves and their own behaviours are in fact a reflection of assumptions and constructs in society.Adapted from‘Men may be from Venus too’, by Anna Salleh, 19 September 2005 .au/science/articles/2005/09/19/1462074.htmVideo StudioWord Bank1. psychiatrist n. a physician who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of mentaldisorders 精神病医师2. feminine adj.womanly女性的3. masculinity n. the properties of the male sex 男性，雄性4. chores n. the regular or daily light work of a household or farm 家务,杂事5. maternity leave n. leave allowed to the woman who has just given birth to a child 产假6. a stay-at-homemom a mom who remains at home especially to tend to children and domestic duties while her spouse is at work 全职妈妈7. flexibility n. a quality of being adaptable or variable 弹性，机动性8. cut to the chase get to the main point 闲话少说，切入正题。

Unit 1无名英雄：职业父亲意味着什么？在我们的孪生女儿出生后的第一次“约会”时，我和丈夫一起去看了一部名为《玩具故事》的电影。
我们很喜欢这部片子，但随后我丈夫问道：“父亲在哪儿呢？”起初我还认为因为一个小小的失误而批评一部很吸引人的家庭影片似乎是太偏狭了。
可后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。
父亲不仅没有出现，他甚至没有被提到——尽管家中有婴儿，说明他不可能离开太长时间。
影片给人的感觉是，父亲出现与否似乎是个极次要的细节，甚至不需要做任何解释。
新闻媒体倾向于把父亲的边缘化，这只是一个例子，它反映了在美国发生的巨大的社会变化。
大卫?布兰肯霍恩在《无父之国》一书中将这种倾向称之为“无需父亲”观念。
职业母亲（我想这应是与无职业母亲相对而言的）奋斗的故事从媒体上无尽无休地轰击着我们。
与此同时，媒体上绝大多数有关父亲的故事又集中表现暴力的丈夫或没出息的父亲。
看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候（我怀疑这一说法的可靠性，因为“家务”的定义中很少包括打扫屋顶的雨水沟、给汽车换机油或其它一些典型地由男人们做的事），或者是在他们去世的时候。
当布兰肯霍恩先生就“顾家的好男人”一词的词义对父亲们进行调查时，许多父亲都回答这一词语只有在葬礼上听到。
这种“无需父亲”综合症的一个例外是家庭全职父亲所受到的媒体的赞扬。
我并非暗指这些家庭全职父亲作出的承诺不值得人们的支持，我只是想指出在实际生效的双重标准：家庭全职父亲受到人们的赞扬，而家庭全职母亲和养家活口的父亲，所得到文化上的认同却很少，甚至完全得不到。
我们用来讨论父亲角色（即没出息的父亲）的话语本身就显示出人们对大多数男人默默无闻而自豪地履行对家庭承担的责任缺乏赏识。
我们几乎从来没听到“职业父亲”这一说法，在人们呼吁应该考虑给予工作者在工作地点上更大的灵活性时，很少有人认为这种呼吁不但适用于女子，同样也适应于男子。
我们这个社会表现出似乎家庭职责对父亲来说并不象对母亲那么重要——似乎事业上的满足就是男人生活的全部。
