Books may change your life”Reading is a life-changing activity. It aids us to get out of confusion in a material world and to discover the real meaning of the life. Simply put, books are supremely influential in the way we live.Homerun book might be the answer for the book that everyone should read. It describes the first reading experience. Everyone is looking for their own homerun books. And what is yours?Passage2: “They were alive and they spoke to me”Henry Miller depicts the struggle he made to obtain books when he was young, and then introduces the reason that makes a book live. In hiseyes, books are one of the few things men cherished deeply,but if you lend it to others, it makes friends for you. He continues to suggest that the vast majority of books repeat what others say, so read as little as possible.Unit 3Passage1: Fifty years of fashion”Between 1960 and 2010, fashion styles have ranged widely, there are two constant factors: the ubiquitous jeans and the rise and fall of hemlines.Jeans soon became popular among young people after being invented .Hemlines were related to the economy. Whenever the economic outlook is unsettled, both men and women tend to wear more conservative clothes. And as the economy situation changed, time saw a number of different styles.Passage2: “Eco-jewellery: sea glass”Sea glass is popular among the jewellery collectors for several reasons. First, the creation of sea glass is a form of recycling. Second, with human recycling rather than hurling it into the sea, sea glass becomes rarer than diamonds. Third, its eco-credentials lend sea glass further appeal.However, with the decline of sea glass in supply, there has arisenproblem of reviving old habits of dumping glass into the sea. Gina Cowen, a sea glass jeweler, refuses to condone it and she even rejects the idea of polishing new glass to make it look old.Unit4Passage1: “The credit card trap”Today, we are caught in the credit crunch because banks set traps which appeal to our vanity and greed and sometimes to our basic need for survival.The banks target people who are prone to impulse-buying, and potentially bad credit risks.

Maintaining some financial independence, spending time and money together as a kind of investment in marriage.Unit5Pass age1: “Sex differences in English gossip rules”Researchers have found that men gossip as much as women. However, men don’t admit they gossip.The reason why female gossip actually sounds like gossip is that there seem to be three principal factors involved. First, Women adopt a tone which is always highly animated while men gossip in the same flat. Second, women are interested in details. Third, women pay more attention to the feedback than men Passage2: “Marked: women in the workplace”Women constantly have to make choices about dress and appearance, and even the way they sign their names, which lead people to make judgments about them.A woman who takes her husband’s surname announces to the world that she is married and also that she is traditional and may be less herself.However, men do not have to make the same choices.Unit6Passage1: “Winston Churchill”Winston Churchill was born in 1874 into one of Britain’s grandest families.

And yet it can be hard to point to places where our education system is really making use of the latest neuroscience findings. But there is one happy link where research is meeting practice: bilingual education.“In the last 20 years or so, there's been a virtual explosion of research on bilingualism ,says Judith Kroll, a professor at the University of Califonia, Riverside.B) Again and again, researchers have found,“bilingualism is an experience that shapes our brain for life," in the words of Gigi Luk, an associate professor at Harvard's Graduate School of Education.At the same time, one of the hottest trends in public schooling is what's often called dual-language ortwo-way immersion programs.C) Traditional programs for English-language leamers, or ELLs, focus on assimilating students into English as quickdy as possible. Dual-languageclassrooms, by contrast, provide instruction across subjects to both English natives and English leamers, in both English and a target language.The goal is functional bilingualism and biliteracy for all students by middle school. New York City ,North Carolina, Delaware, Utah, Oregon and Washington state are among the places expanding dual-language classrooms.D) The trend fies in the face of some of the culture wars of two decades ago , when advocates insisted on“English first” education. Most famously, Califomnia passed Proposition 227 in 1998. It was intended to sharply reduce the amount of time that English-language leamers spent in bilingual settings. Proposition 58,passed by California voters on November 8, largely reversed that decision,paving the way for a huge expansion of bilingual education in the state that has the largest population of English-language leamers.E) Some of the insistence on Englih-first was founded on research produced decades ago, in which bilingual students underperformned monolingual English speakers and had lower IQ scores. Today's scholars, like Elen Bialystok at York University in Toronto, say that research was “deeply flawed. ”“ Earlier research looked at socially disadvantaged groups, ”agrees Antonella Sorace at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland.“This has been completely contradicted by recent research'”that compares groups more similar to each other.F) So what does recent research say about the potential benefts of bilingual education? It tuns out that, in many ways, the real trick to speaking twolanguages consists in managing not to speak one of those languages at a given moment- -which is fundametally a feat of paying attention. Saying “Goodbye" to mom and then“Guten t ag" to your teacher, or managing to askfor a crayola roja instead of a red crayon, requires skills called “ inhibition”and “task switching.” These skills are subsets of an ability called executive function.G) People who speak two languages often outperform monolinguals on general measures of executive function.“ Bilinguals can pay focused attention without being distracted and also improve in the ability to switch from one task to another,”says Sorace.H) Do these same advantages beneft a child who begins learning a second language in kindergarten instead of as a baby? We don't yet know. Patterns of language learning and language. use are complex. But Gigi Luk at Harvard cites at least one brain-imaging study on adolescents that shows similar changes in brain structure when compared with those who are bilingual from bith, even when they didn't begin practicing a second language in eamest before late childhood.I) Young children being raised bilingual have to follow social cues to fngure out which language to use with which person and in what setting. As a result, says Sorace,bilingual children as young as age 3 have demonstrated a head start on tests of perspective-taking and theory of mind- -both of which are fundamental social and emotional skills.J) About 10 percent of students in the Portland, Oregon public schools are assigned by lottery to dua]-language classrooms that offer instruction in Spanish, Japanese or Mandarin, alongside English.Jennifer Steele at American University conducted a four-year, randomized trial and found that these dual-language students outperforned their peers in English-reading skills by a full school-year's worth of learning by the end of middle school. Because the effects are found in reading, not in math or science where there were few differences, Steele suggests that learning two languages makes students more aware of how language works in general.K) The research of Gigi Luk at Harvard offers a slightly different explanation. She has recently done a small study looking at a group of 100 fourth-graders in Massachusetts who had similar reading scores on a standard test, but very different language experiences. Some were foreign-language dominant and others were English natives. Here's what's interesting. The students who were dominant in a foreign language weren't yet comfortably bilingual; they were just starting to leam English.Therefore, by definition, they had a much weaker English vocabulary than the native speakers.Yet they were just as good at interpreting a text. “ This is very surprising," Luk says.“You would expect the reading comprehension performance to mirror the vocabulary- -it's a cormerstone of comprehension.*L) How did the foreign-language dominant speakers manage this feat? Well, Luk found, they also scored higher on tests of executive functioning. So, even though they didn't have huge mental dictionaries to draw on, they may havebeen great puzzle- solvers, taling into account higher-level concepts such as whether a single sentence made sense within an overall story line. They got to the same results as the monolinguals, by a different path.M) American public school classrooms as a whole are becoming more segregated by race and class.Dual-language programs can be an exception.Because they are composed of native English speakers deliberately placed together with recent immigrants, they tend to be more ethnically andeconomically balanced. And there is some evidence that this helps kids of all backgrounds gain comfort with diversity and different cultures.N) Several of the researchers also pointed out that, in bilingual education, non-English- dominant students and their families tend to feel that their home language is heard and valued,compared with a classroom where the home language is left at the door in favor of English. This can improve students' sense of belonging and increase parents' involvement in their children's education,including behaviors like reading to children. “ Many parents fear their language is an obstacle,a problem, and if they abandon it their child will integrate better," says Antonella Sorace of the University of Edinburgh.“We tell them they're not doing their child a favor by giving up their language.”O) One theme that was striking in speaking to all these researchers was just how strongly they advocated for dual-language classrooms. Thomas and Collier have advised many school systems on how to expand theirdual-language programs, and Sorace runs “ Bilingualism Matters," aintermational network of researchers who promote bilingual education projects. This type 0 advocacy among scientists is unusual; even more so becausethe“bilingual advantage hypothesis" is being challenged once again.P) A review of studies published last year found that cognitive advantages failed to appear in 83 percent of published studies , though in a separateanalysis , the sum of effects was still signifcantly positive.One potential explanation offered by the researchers is that advantages that are measurable in the very young and very old tend to fade when testing young adults at the peak of their cognitive powers. And, they countered that no negative effects of bilingual education have been found.So,even if the advantages are small, they are still worth it. Not to mention one obvious, outstanding fact:“ Bilingual children can speak two languages! ' '36. A study found that there are similar changes in brain structure betweenthose who are bilingual from birth and those who start leaming a secondlanguage later.37. Unlike traditional monolingual prograns, bilingual classrooms aim atdeveloping students' ability to use two languages by middle school.38. A study showed that dual-language students did significantly better thantheir peers in reading English texts.39. About twenty years ago, bilingual practice was strongly discouraged,especially in California.10. Ethnically and economically balanced bilingual classooms are found to be helpful for kids to get used to social and cultural diversity.41. Researchers now claim that earlier research on bilingual education was seriously flawed.42. According to a researcher , dual-language experiences exert a lifelong influence on one's brain.43. Advocates of bilingual education argued that it produces positive effects though they may be limited.44. Bilingual speakers often do better than monolinguals in completing certain tasks because they can concentrate better on what they are doing.45. When their native language is used, parents can become more involved in their children's education.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.It is not controversial to say that an unhealthy diet causes bad health. Nor are the basic elements of healthy eating disputed. Obesity raises susceptibility tocancer, and Britain is the sixth most obese country on Earth. That is a public health emergency. But naming the problem is the easy part. No one disputesthe costs in quality of life and depleted health budgets of an obese population, but the quest for solutions gets diverted by ideological arguments aroundresponsibility and choice. And the water is muddied by lobbying from the industries that profit from consumption of obesity-inducing products.Historical precedent suggests that science and politics can overcome resistance from businesses that pollute and poison but it takes time, andsuccess often starts small. So it is heartening to note that a programme inLeeds has achieved a reduction in childhood obesity, becoming the first UK city to reverse a fattening trend. The best results were among younger children and in more deprived areas.When 28% of English children aged two to 15 are obese, a national shift on the scale achieved by Leeds would lengthen hundreds of thousands of lives. A significant factor in the Leeds experience appears to be a scheme called HENRY,which helps parents reward behaviours that preyent obesity in children.Many members of parliament are uncomfortable even with their own govemment's anti-obesity strategy,since it involves a“sugar tax" and a ban on the sale of energy drinks to under-16s. Bans and taxes can be blunt instruments, but their harshest critics can rarely suggest better methods.These critics just oppose regulation itself.The relationship between poor health and inequality is too pronounced for govermments to be passive about large-scale intervention. People living in the most deprived areas are four times more prone to die from avoidable causes than counterparts in more affluent places. As the structural nature of publichealth problems becomes harder to ignore,the complaint about overprotective govenment loses potency.In fact, the polarised debate over public health interventions should have been abandoned long emment action works when individuals are motivatedto respond. Individuals need govemments that expand access to good choices.The HENRY programme was delivered in part through children's centres. Closing such centres and cutting council budgets doesn't magically increase reserves of individual self-reliance. The function of a well-designed state intervention is not to deprive people of liberty but to build social capacity and infrastructure that helps people take responsibility for their wellbeing. The obesity crisis will not have a solution devised by leit or right ideology- -but experience indicates that the private sector needs the incentive of regulation before it starls taling public health emergencies seriously.46. Why is the obesity problem in Britain so difficult to solve?A) Goverment health budgets are depleted.B) People disagree as to who should do what.C) Individuals are not ready to take their responsibilties.D) Industry lobbying makes it hard to get healthy foods.47. What can we learmn from the past experience in tacking public health emergencies?A) Govemments have a role to play.B) Public health is a scientifc issue.C) Priority should be given to deprived regions.D) Businesses' responsility should be stressed.48. What does the author imply about some critics of bans and taxes concerning unhealthy drinks?A) They are not aware of the consequences of obesity.B) They have not come up with anything more constructive.C) They are uncomfortable with parliament's anti obesity debate.D) They have their own motives in opposing govermment regulation.49. Why does the author stress the relationship between poor health and inequality?A) To demonstrate the dilemma of people living in deprived areas.B) To bring to light the root cause of widespread obesity in Britain.C) To highlight the area deserving the most attention from the public.D) To justify govermment intervention in solving the obesity problem.50. When will govermment action be effective?A) When the polarised debate is abandoned.B) When ideological differences are resolved.C) When individuals have the incentive to act accordingly.D) When the private sector realises the severity of the crisis.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Home to virgin reefs, rare sharks and vast numbers of exotic fish, the Coral Sea is a unique haven of biodiversity off the northeastem coast of Australia. If a proposal by the Australian govemment goes ahead, the region will also become the world's largest marine protected area, with restrictions or bans on fishing, mining and marine farming.The Coral Sea reserve would cover almost 990 000 square kilometres and stretch as far as 1100 kilometres from the coast. Unveiled recently by environment minister Tony Burke,the proposal would be the last in a series of proposed marine reserves around Australia's coast.But the scheme is attracting criticism from scientists and conservation groups,who argue that the govemment hasn't gone far enough in protecting the Coral Sea, or in other marine reserves in the coastal network.HughPossingham,director of the Centre of Excellence for Environmental Decisions at the University of Queensland, points out that little more than half of the CoralSea reserve is proposed as“no take" area, in which all fishing would be banned. The world's largest existing marine reserve,established last year by the British govemment in the Indian Ocean, spans 554 000 km2 and is a no-take zone throughout. An alliance of campaigning conversation groups argues that more of the Coral Sea should receive this level of protection.“I would like to have seen more protection f or coral reefs," says Tery Hughes, director of the Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies at James CookUniversity in Queensland.“More than 20 of them would be outside the no-take area and vulnerable to catch- and-release fshing” .As Nature went to press, the Australian govemment had not responded to specifc criticisms of the plan. But Robin Beaman, a marine geologist at James Cook University, says that the reserve does“broadly protect the range of habitats”in the sea.“I can testify to the huge effort that govemment agencies and other organisations have put into trying to understand the ecological values of this vast area," he says. .Reserves proposed earlier this year for Australia's southwester and northwesterm coastal regions have also been criticised for failing to give habitats adequate protection. In August,173 marine scientists signed an open letter to the govemment saying they were“greatly concemed" that the proposals for the southwestem region had not been based on the“ core science principles”of reserves-the protected regions were not, for instance , representative of all the habitats in the region, they said.Critics say that the southwestem reserve offers the greatest protection to the offishore areas where commercial opportunities are fewest and where there is lttle threat to the environment,a contention also levelled at the Coral Sea plan.51. What do we learn from the passage about the Coral Sea?A) It is exceptionally rich in marine life.B) It is the biggest marine protected area.C) It remains largely undisturbed by humans.D) It is a unique haven of endangered species.52. What does the Australian govemment plan to do according to Tony Burke?A) Make a new proposal to protect the Coral Sea.B) Revise its conservation plan owing to criticisms.C) Upgrade the established reserves to protect marine life.D) Complete the series of marine reserves around its coast.53. What is scientists' argument about the Coral Sea proposal?A) The govemment has not done enough for marine protection.B) It will not improve the marine reserves along Australia's coast.C) The govemment has not consulted them in drawing up the proposal.D) It is not based on suffcient investigations into the ecological system.54. What does marine geologist Robin Beaman say about the Coral Sea plan?A) It can compare with the British govemment's effort in the Indian Ocean.B) It will result in the establishment of the world's largest marine reserve.C) It will ensure the sustainability of the fishing industry around the coast.D) It is a tremendous joint effort to protect the range of marine habitats.55. What do critics think of the Coral Sea plan?A) It will do more harm than good to the environment.B) It will adversely affect Australia's fishing industry.C) It will protect regions that actually require lttle protection.D) It will win lttle support from environmental organisations.Part IV Translation(30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allonwed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.

FriendshipA person can have many friends but only one or two bosom friends. W e regard some of our friends as our intimate friends, and others as ordinary friends. Those who are unfaithful to us can’t be called our friends.A good friend is a real friend, and a real friend is a friend for life. A friend is, as it were, a second self. First, a friend is one whom you can count on, trust and talk to. Second, a friend is someone who will listen to you when you talk about your problems or before whom you may think aloud. What is more, a friend is a person who will help you if you are in trouble. Just as the saying goes: A friend in need is a friend indeed.Friendship involves affection and intimacy. Friendship is based on warmth, trust and shared experience. T rue friendship is a plant of slow growth, the value of which can stand the test of time. T rue friendship is like health, the value of which is seldom known until it is lost.Life without friends is like life on a desert island, and life without friendship is not worth living. Sharing joy and sorrow is the way to show your deep friendship. If you tell your joy to your friend, your joy will double. And if you pour your sorrow to your friend, your sorrow will be reduced by half.Dealing with cultural differencesPeople from different countries speak different languages, keep different value systems, and have different ways of looking at things. These differences are generally called cultural differences. Cultural differences are subtle and are often unrecognized or overlooked. It is upsetting to find people who behave differently from us. We may, at first, assume that something is wrong with them..Cultural backgrounds may influence people’s way of thinking.First, cultural background influences what people consider to be good manners or bad manners. Second, it influences what they consider to be polite or rude. Third, it influences what they consider to be on time or late.Failure to recognize cultural differences may cause many problems. On the one hand, those who are uninformed about cultural differences may have difficulty communicating with their business associates from other cultures. On the other hand, inability to recognize cultural differences can make mutual understanding difficult.There are many ways to deal with cultural differences. First, we can avoid unintentionally offending others by learning the basic characteristics of other cultures. For instance, we may ask our foreign friends about their everyday customs or take time to explain certain common customs of our own culture to them.One worldIn a sense, the world is a very complicated network, in which , people of the world are one big family. The world in which we live gives birth to the human race. For together we exist, and together we try to make the world better for all. Although people in different countries have different traditions, they are essentially the same everywhere. They will go through the same life stages in their life, babyhood, childhood, adolescence, youth, middle age and se nior age. All human beings have the basic needs to eat, to have shelter and clothing, and to work. They also need to love others and be loved.They all seem to celebrate certain days such asNew Y ear’s Day, Mother’s Day, Children’s Day, etc.Admittedly there are differences among people from different cultures. With the rapid development of transportation means and the information technology the world is getting smaller and smaller.Contacts between cultures give great access to promote the mutual understanding among peoples of the world.Explaining processesWe are often expected to give oral presentations to our classmates and teachers.Our performance in oral presentations will form an important part of the overall assessment of our work.Many students find giving an effective oral presentation difficult and stressful.In giving an oral presentation, we should not only organize information and ideas coherently but also deliver the speech in a clear and vivid ing charts, photos and computer graphics can help us to get our message across and to make our presentations clear, interesting and memorable.The use of visual aids such as overheads, slides, and computer images can add interest to teaching and learning.OHP is short for overhead projector. It is a device which projects enlarged images from transparencies onto a screen or a white wall. Using an overhead projector enables the audience to see the charts, diagrams and photos clearly.In our daily life, we are often required to explain to others how to perform a certain task. My major difficulty is that I can’t find the right verbs to de scribe certain actions. I have to use nonverbal means such as gestures and pictures besides language to make myself understood.MemoryMemory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use or the process by which people store and retrieve information.There are 2 kinds of memory, Short-term memory and long-term memory. A short-term memory is temporary, as it is stored for a very short time in the brain.Long-term memory refers to the storing of information for a longer period of time.Some people get photographic memory but others have a memory like a sieve .People may hold the opinion that a good memory is something you were born with. But I think it in a different way. Whether you can remember things well or not depends on the way you try to remember them and how often you recall them. Don't try to memorize all the facts, but focus your attention on what you consider more important.Memory is like a muscle , which is built up by frequent use. That is to say, the more it is used, the better it gets; The more it is neglected, the worse it gets. There are many things you can do to help you recall past events, such as keeping a diary, buying postcards, taking photos and making video films.WealthModern life is built around money. Money, whatever form it takes, is essential for buying goods and services. The rich are supposed to be able to satisfy their personal wishes without difficulty. For the rich, good education, travel, luxury and security are all readily available, while the poor attain these with great difficulty, if at all.Money in itself is neutral. Money can buy certain comforts and offer some security, but it is not the answer for everything. Money is man's greatest source of joy as well as his greatest source of anxiety.Money is a terrible master but an excellent servant. Money and wealth trap people into various obligations.Money does not guarantee happiness. Money brings you food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health. Those who have some means think that the most important thing in life is love. The poor know that it is money. Riches are not an end of life, but an instrument of life. Happiness is not attained by accumulating / amassing wealth. W e will be disappointed if we count on wealth or physical comforts alone for happiness. Because Happiness does not depend on the amount of money you have. A happy man is one who is content, whether he is rich or poor. The greatest wealth is contentment with a little.AgingAging is the natural process of growing old or a decline in all areas of a person’s mental and physical abilities. People over 65 years old are generally considered senior citizens.Some old people are rather conservative and they are slow to accept new things. They think they are always right and yearn to be recognized, admired and praised by the young. Many elderly people have difficulty remembering recent events but may retain vivid memories of what happened to them a long time ago .The old have a long past and a short future before them while the young have a short past and a long future before them. However ,old people are an asset of society as they are more experienced and responsible. We should treat old people with respect and kindness. It makes sense for us to keep them up-to-date and take good care of them, especially when they are sick.Aging comes to everyone after they reach a certain age. However, an elderly person may remain young at heart.The elderly should enjoy their remaining years in happiness.。

Unit 01 Working Holiday AbroadHow My Working Holiday Changed MeHayley1 Now that I have been home for a while and have had time to reflect on my working holiday in Vancouver, I’ve thought a lot about who I was before I left for Canada and who I am prese ntly.1 我回到家已经有一段时间了,有空回顾在温哥华的打工度假经历。
对于去加拿大之前的自我和如今的自我,我思考了很多。
2 Prior to leaving, I was not in a good place. I had suffered a lot of personal blows and felt emotionally stretched. I lost my grandma, my job and had two car crashes in five months. I needed something to change in my life, and that came in the form of a working holiday visa.2 出发前,我的境况不好。
个人生活上经受了许多打击,精神压力很大。
我失去了我的祖母,我的工作,5个月里遭遇两起车祸。
我需要生活得到改变,于是便有了打工度假签证这回事。
3 In less than three months I filled out the necessary paperwork, booked my plane ticket and fled Brisbane. I spent fifteen months living and working in Vancouver, Canada and eighteen months in total away from Australia. This is how that working holiday changed me and my life.3 在不到三个月的时间里,我填写了所需的表格,订好了机票,逃离布里斯班。
