Northern Ireland is located in the northeast corner of Ireland, the second largest island in the British Isles. The capital of the United Kingdom is the city of London, situated near the southeastern tip of England.2E n g l a n dEngland is a political division of the island of Great Britain and the principal division of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

It's a place for debates between, on the one hand, the government (used to be the king) and on the other hand, the representatives of the communities: the communes, the commons, into which the country was divided. They used to come together to have a dialogue. The king wanted their support and their taxes and they wanted the king to follow their policies and to redress any local grievances. That's what it was in the past, centuries ago and that's what it still is today: a place for debates.Words and Expressions1. represent: stand for or be a sign or symbol ofExamples:• The foreign minister represented the country at the conference.• Each dot on my map represents a town.2. consist of: (no passive) be made up ofExamples:• The United Kingdom consists of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.• That area's future weather pattern might consist of long, dry periods.3. establish: set upExamples:• Father established this business forty years ago.• Public schools for girls were established in some places.4. elect: choose (somebody) by votingExamples:• They elected him to represent them.• We must urge that delegates be elected from the various factories in a district.5. facility: aids, circumstances, which make it easy to do thingsExamples:• One of the facilities our students have is a large library.• This kitchen has a garbage disposal and other modern facilities.6. assign: give as a share or dutyExamples:• They assigned me a small room.• Two pupils were assigned to sweep the floor.7. enable: make ableExamples: • This train enables me to get there in time.• This would enable them to double their output of machine guns.8. apply: write to ask for (a job, membership, etc.)Examples: • He has applied for a post in England.• I applied to four universities and was accepted by all of them.9. demonstrate: show clearly by giving proof(s) or example(s)Examples:• The salesman demonstrated the new washing-machine to the customers.• These figures clearly demonstrate the size of the economic problem facing the country.10. enrich: make rich, improve (in quality, flavor, etc.)Examples:•An education enriches the mind.• American culture has been enriched by European immigrants.11. at large: as a wholeExamples:• The people at large wanted peace.• The country at large is hoping for great changes.12. benefit from / by: gain by; receive advantage fromExamples:• Who would be most likely to benefit from the old man's death?• You will benefit by taking a holiday.Notes to the Text1.

Chapter 1教育:社会的反思(杜亚-译)探访学校,在世界任何地方,你可能会注意到若干相似之处。
学生,教师,课本,黑板和考试无处不在。
然而,在任何其他国家相比一个国家的学校制度是不同于别的的系统。
它不能完全一样的,因为每个文化是不同的。
教育系统是一面镜子,反映文化。
看看学校系统,你将看到的社会结构及其文化价值。
墨西哥在墨西哥,教育系统反映了国家的许多方面。
相信国家能够通过教育实现人人平等的权利。
墨西哥的教育系统的基础是国家的宪法,并于1917年写的。
它要求教育是免费的,强制性的,具有普遍性。
它还指出,教育应支持民族团结,导致社会,经济和文化的人民改善。
在较低的水平,这意味着有该国丰富的文化历史的重视。
孩子写历史论文,参加各种活动,为国家节日,阅读有关国家英雄 - 特别是土著人。
然而,我们很难提供在农村地区,那里的土著人民仍然生活教育。
在这些地区的人民是贫穷和孤立的地理位置。
没有足够的学校,农村教师必须能够教小学所有6个等级。
此外,在一些土著人民的传统通常不包括上学。
日本日本高度重视教育。
一项统计数字反映了这一点:日本教育等放在重要的是,百分之88的学生不仅完成小学,而且高中。
公立学校都是免费和平等的,所有学生被认为是平等的,学习相同的材料。
对于社会的原因,很重要的一个学生获得大学学位,并从“大学学位的权利。
”为了实现这一目标,学生必须通过“考试地狱。
”有入学的所有大学困难的考试,到更好的小学和中学很多,甚至一些幼儿园!日本学生需要伟大的纪律,以使他们在学习的时间,他们需要自我控制放弃嗜好,体育和社会生活。
这些考试的结果会影响整个家庭,因为有很高的地位,社会地位或为整个家庭,当孩子考试分数高。
英国在联合王国(英国),教育系统反映了复合系统。
所有公立学校,小学,中学和大学,都是免费的,首先是平等的9年,所有学生学习相同的材料。
11岁时,学生参加考试的一个重要的国家。
在此之后,他们参加一个中学三种可能:学院的筹备,职业(就业培训),或全面(与两组的学生)。

It finds that carbondioxide 1) __emissions_ are making seawater so acidic that coral reefs could begin to disintegrate within a few 2)__decades_. The report states that even ambitious plans to stabilize greenhouse gas emissions, thought by many to be the main 3) ____cause__ of a warming climate, will not be enough to save the reefs. About a third of carbon emissions is soaked up by the world’s oceans, where it 4) _combines__ with seawater to form carbonic acid.The research comes as the Queensland state government in Australia 5) _announces__ a new plan to protect the Great Barrier Reef from 6) __agricultural pollution.

Some of these forces are 3) internal_, such as needs, interests, and beliefs. Others are external, such as danger, the environment, or 4)_pressure_ from a loved one. There is no simple formula for motivation — you must keep an open viewpoint on human nature. There is a 5)_complex_array of forces steering the direction of each person, and these forces cannot always be seen or studied. Also, if the same forces are steering two different people, each one will act differently.

We all make mistakes or need help to achieve a particular goal.Unit 6Home Listening.............We all know of cases where negative fan behavior has driven some athletes to perform at less than their best o r perhaps even knock them completely out of a competition. ―Athleteswant to live up to a high paying 1)__contract__as well as fan expectations. It is the same with Olympians who 2) _strive_ to live up to expectations.Athletes may say they are immune to fans, but we know better. They are like teenagers who say they don’t care what their parents think,‖ said Daniel L. Wann, who heads the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) Special Interest Group on Fandom.According to Wann, there has been a good deal of research on fans and their ability to pump up the home team or negatively 3)_impact____on the visiting team. ―Some athletes thrive under this pressure and others don’t.

He helps them develop their mental abilities, while the coaches focus on their physical skills. ―The key is for 7)__athletes to learn tocompartmentalize what they pay attention to, to be able to tune out the fans but not the coaches. They need to be 8)_ selective between valuable information (from coaches or teammates) versus noise (from fans).‖Just as athletes are involved in their sports for a variety of reasons, fans are motivated for different reasons. 9) It is important to remember that fans are driven_by a variety of motives.You can’t paint them with one brush stroke.

But more and more older Americans want to grow old in familiar 1)_surroundings To them, the focus is on staying in their own homes and living in a community with neighbors who have babies or school age children.It is a 2)trend called aging-in-place. But, many people recognize, to remain in their home as long as possible, they are going to need some help.

The first factor was the spread of personal computers (PCs). Prior to the 1980s, home computers were nearly non-existent or they were toys. Real computers were rare, and they were locked away for use by 2)_experts During the 1980s, real computers started to spread to businesses and homes because of the 3) popularity__of the IBM PC (released in 1982) and the Apple Macintosh (released in 1984). By the late 1980s, PCs were widespread in businesses, homes and college 4)___campuses.The second factor was the use of computer bulletin boards. People could dial up a bulletin board with a modem and download programs of all types. Games were extremely popular, and so were simple word 5) _processor_spreadsheets and other 6) _productivity software. Bulletin boards led to the precursor of the virus known as the Trojan horse. A Trojan horse is a program with a cool-sounding name and 7) __description . so it tricks people into downloadingWhen you run the program, however, it does something ―uncool‖ like erasing your disk. You think you are getting a neat game, but it wipes out your system. Trojan horses only hit a small number of people because they are quickly discovered, the 8)__infected programs are removed and word of the danger spreads among users.The third factor that led to the creation of viruses was the floppy disk. In the1980s, programs were small, 9)_and you could fit the entire operating system . a few programs and some documents onto a floppy disk or two. Many computers did not have hard disks, so when you turned on your machine it would load the operating system and everything else from the floppy disk. 10) _Virus authors took_advantage of this to create the first self-replicating programs.。
