第一单元Text A Tax Competition Spurs GlobalizationKey to the exercises1 Reading comprehension(1)The economic forces behind globalization include rising trade and investment flows, greater labor mobility, and rapid transfers of technology. Those trends have been stimulated by the deregulation of financial markets, reductions in trade barriers, and lower communication costs. (2)Most economists support globalization because it raises the incomes of people worldwide. Another lesser noticed benefit is that it makes it harder for governments to sustain excessively high tax rates. When economic integration increases, individuals and businesses gain the freedom to take advantage of low tax rates abroad.(3)It shows that some smart nations like Ireland are treating international tax competition as an opportunity, not a threat.(4)First, high tax countries have urged international organizations to reduce tax competition. Second, many nations are adding layers of complex rules on businesses to discourage them from investing abroad, rather than reducing tax burdens so that businesses want to invest at home.(5)Because there are more opportunities and lower taxes in cities such as London.(6)The author cites the case of Ireland to show that with the reduction of taxes, a large number of immigrants are attracted, and people at home are unwilling to migrate out. The lower one country’s tax is, the more skilled people will be attracted.(7)Because market competition encourages production efficiency. Tax competition provides an incentive to improve government efficiency. For example, the Federal government is no longer a monopoly—Americans now are able to invest abroad, retire in a low tax Caribbean country, or move their business to low tax Ireland. Accordingly, the Federal government needs to reform the tax code and provide services more efficiently to encourage Americans and their money to stay at home.(8)Tax competition among countries should be a win-win policy, as it restrains governments and helps spur global economic growth.2 V ocabulary(1)spur d(2)curtail g(3)per captia k(4)regime i(5)celebrity b(6)merge m(7)highlight c(8) akin f(9)stifle n(10)deduct a3 Paraphrase(1)Until now, basic economic forces have gone beyond(outweigh) political efforts to make this trend slow. Efforts to oppose economic globalization have extended from anti-globalization protests to Congressional law making to prevent American companies from building subsidiary business in foreign countries.(2)Some nations are treating tax competition as a useless and disadvantageous thing. High tax countries have urged international organizations, such as the organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), to ease (curtail) tax competition.(3)And many nations are formulating a series of complex rules on businesses so as to try to keep them from investing abroad, instead of reducing tax burdens so that businesses are willing to invest at home.(4)The U.S. is divided into (fall into) this group because it has one of the highest corporate tax rates. Nevertheless, America continues to put off(推迟) reforming tax policies, which is expected for a long time.(5) International investors have been affected easily by changes and differences between national tax rates as their investment choices have increased.(6)Another noticeable issue is that many businesses used to invest in foreign country only want to take the opportunity for fixed resources, such as oil deposits. Today, many industries-such as finance and services-are free to invest and can set up new firms anywhere(footloose).(7)For example, in recent years Canadian policymakers have to consider important issue that a group of skilled and talented people from technology industries in Canada have emigrate to its lower tax southern neighbor, the U.S.(8)For many years, young Irish people went to America and other foreign countries, and tried to find a way to live a better life. But after Ireland reduced individual tax and then quickly cut corporate tax, the pattern of out migration was changed around completely in this country.(9)To keep the skilled labor from leaving their own country to other countries, governments had to direct spending and tax levels to satisfy local residents. In which country Individuals chose to resident according to their demand for public goods relative to local tax levels.(10)If the U.S. makes progress in tax reform, other nations would probably reform their taxes in the same way(follow suit), as they did when the U.S. reduced rates in the 1980s.4 Cloze(1)and(2) understand(3) about(4) sides(5) what(6) bad(7) nor(8) properly(9)destroy(10) says(11) which(12) stronger(13) behind(14) up(15) While(16) unique(17)dark(18) benefits(19) from(20) rule5 TranslationA Translate the following paragraphs into Chinese.由于殖民地与许多海外地区的大量贸易,所有欧洲重要商业国以及它们在西半球领地的金银铸币在北美东海岸都可以自由交换。
Unit 1 Human reflectionsMarriage is an institution in which a man loser his Bachelor’s degree and the woman gets her Master’s 婚姻是这样一所学校,男人会失去单身汉的地位,而女人会获得征服者的地位。
---Socrates, Greek philosopherMen marry because they are tried, woman because they are curious; both are disappointed.男人结婚,因为他们厌倦了;女人结婚,因为她们好奇。
结果两人都大失所望。
---Oscar Wilde, British writerPre-reading Activities1.Fill in the blanks with the words you hearIt takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone ,and a day to love someone. But it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don’t go for looks; they can deceive.Don’t go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile. Because it only takes a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meet the right one. So that when we finally meet the right person, we will know hour to be grateful for that gift. It’s true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it, but it’s also true that we don’t know what we’ve been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love will not provide assurance that they will love you back. Don’t expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their hearts.But if it doesn’t, be content. It grew in yours.2. Discuss the following questions.1. Do you know of marriages that have failed? If so, what do you think people have suffered from their failed marriages and what were the possible causes? What assumption do people bring into their marriages?2. In contrast to a failed marriage, what do you think can contribute to a happy marriage? What’s your definition of marriage?TextWhy Marriages FailAnne RoipheAnne Roiphe is an American feminist author known for such novels as Up the Sandbox and Lovingkindness. Her work is noteworthy for its examination of the conflict between the desire for family and relationships and that for career and self-determination1 These days so many marriages end in divorce that our most sacred vows no longer ring with truth. “Happily ever after” and “Till death us do part” are expressions that seem on the way to becoming obsolete. Why has it become so hard for couples to stay together? What goes wrong? What has happened to us that close to one half of all marriages are destined for the divorce courts?How could we have created a society in which 42 percent of our children will grow up in single-parent homes? If statistics could only measure loneliness, regret, pain, loss of self-confidence, and fear of the future, the numbers would be beyond quantifying.2. Even though each broken marriage is unique, we can still find common perils, common causes of marital despair. Each marriage has a crisis point, and each marriage tests endurance, the capacity for both intimacy and change. Outside pressures such as job loss, illness, infertility, trouble with a child, care of aging parents, and all the other plagues of life the marriage the way hurricanes blast our shores. Some marriages survive these storms, and others don’t. Marriages fail, however, not simply because of the outside weather but because the inner climate becomes too hot or too cold, too turbulent or too stupefying.3. When we look at how we choose our partners and what expectations exist at the tender beginning of romance, some of the reasons for the disaster become quite clear. We all select with unconscious accuracy a mate who will recreate with us the emotional patterns of our first homes. Dr. Carl A. Whitaker, a marital therapist and emeritus professor of psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin, explains, “From early childhood on, each of us carried models for marriage, femininity, masculinity, motherhood, fatherhood and all the other family roles.’ Each of us falls in love with a mate who has qualities of our parents, who will help us rediscover both the psychological happiness and miseries of our past lives. We may think we have found a man unlike Dad, but then he returns to drink or drugs, or losses his job over and over again, or sits silently in front of the TV just the way Dad did. A man may choose a woman who doesn’t like kids just like his mother, or who gambles away the family savings just like his mother. Or he may choose a slender wife who seems unlike his obese mother but then turns out to have other addictions that destroy their mutual happiness.4. A man and a woman bring to their marriage bed a blended concoction of conscious and unconscious memories of their parents’ lives together. The human way is to compulsively repeat and recreate the patterns of the past. Sigmund Freud so well described the unhappy design that many of us get trapped in: the unmet needs of childhood, the angry feelings left over from frustrations of long ago, the limits of trust, and the reoccurrence of old fears. Once an individual senses this entrapment, there may follow a yearning to escape, and the result could be a broken, splintered marriage.5. Of course people can overcome the habits and attitudes that developed in childhood. We all have hidden strengths and amazing capacities for growth and creative change. Change, however, requires work – observing your part in a rotten pattern, bringing difficulties out into the open – and work runs counter to the basic myth of marriage:’ When I wed this person all my problems will be over. I will have achieved success and I will become the center of life for this other person and this person will be my center, and we will mean everything to each other forever.’ This myth, which every marriage relies on ,is soon exposed. The coming of children, the pulls and the tugs of their demands on affection and time, place a considerable strain on that basic myth of meaning everything to each other, of merging together and solving all of life’s problems.6. Concern and tension about money take each partner away from the other. Obligations to demanding parents or still-depended-upon parents create further strain. Couples today must also deal with all the cultural changes brought on in recent years by the woman’s movement and thesexual revolution. The altering of roles and the shifting of responsibilities have been extremely trying for many marriages.7. These and other realities of life erode the visions of marital bliss the way sandstorms eat at rock and the ocean nibbles away at the dunes. Those euphoric, grand feelings that accompany romantic love are really self-delusions, self-hypnotic dreams that enable us to forge a relationship. Real life, failure at work, disappointments, exhaustion, bad smells, bad colds and hard times all puncture the dream and leave us stranded with our mate, with our childhood patterns pushing us this way and that, and with our unfulfilled expectations.8. The struggle to survive in marriage requires adaptability, flexibility, genuine love and kindness, and an imagination strong enough to feel what the other is feeling. Many marriages fall apart because either partner cannot imagine what the other wants or cannot communicate what he of she needs or feels. Anger builds until it erupts into a volcanic burst that buries the marriage in ash.9. If we sense from our mate a need for too much intimacy, we tend to push him of her away, fearing that we may lose our identities in the merging of marriage. One partner may suffocate the other partner in a childlike dependency. A good marriage means growing so a couple but also growing as individuals. This isn’t easy. Richard gives up his interest in carpentry because his wife, Helen, is jealous of the time he spends away from her. Karen quits the choir group because her husband dislikes the friends she makes there. Each pair clings to each other and is angry with each other as life closes in on them. This kind of marital balance is easily thrown as one or the other pulls away and divorce follows.10. Marriage takes some kind of sacrifice, not dreadful self-sacrifice of the soul, but some level of compromise. Some of one’s fantasies, some of one’s legitimate desires have to be given up for the value of the marriage itself. “While all marital partners feel shackled at times, it is they who really choose to make the marital ties into confining chains or supporting bonds,” says Dr. Whitaker. Marriage requires sexual, financial, and emotional discipline. A man and a woman cannot follow every impulse, cannot allow themselves to stop growing and changing.11. Divorce is not an evil act .Sometimes it provides salvation for people who have grown hopelessly apart or were frozen in patterns of pain or mutual unhappiness. Divorce can be, despite its initial devastation, like the first cut of the surgeon’s knife, a step toward new health and a good life. On the other hand, if the partners can stay past the breaking-up of the romantic myths into the development of real love and intimacy, they have achieved a work as amazing as the greatest cathedrals of the world. Marriages that do not fail but improve, that persist despite imperfections, are not only rare these days but offer a wondrous shelter in which the face of our mutual humanity can safely show itself.Notes1.Dr. Carl A.

However, I always like to study on my own, with good reasons. First, I feel that I can concentrate better when I study alone. When I have to work together with other people, I often get distracted and more often than not, I end up chatting with them without completing the task at hand. Second, when I study on my own, I can work at my own pace, choosing to spend more time on certain difficult sections and less time on less challenging parts. I can also check my class notes or reference books whenever I feel the need to. One final good advantage of studying alone is that unlike group work, self study is not restricted by time and space. In other words, if I feel like studying, I can do so at any time and anywhere. (146 words)I like to study in a groupAccording to a recent study, students who study together by discussing homework and problems usually score higher than those who work on their own. I am happy to hear that because I like to study in a group. I think we can reinforce our understanding of what we have learned in class by asking each other questions. Besides, it is always enjoyable working with someone else. A discussion on questions we don’t understandvery well will help clear up any possibl e confusion. Last but not least, we should not ignore the importance of cooperation in our society. Working with others helps develop our team spirit, which has become essential in this modern world of ours. After all, two heads are always better than one.(125 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:College Is Not an Ivory TowerPeople often say that college is an ivory tower and life on campus is cut off from the harsh realities of the real world. College may have been an ivory tower before, but it is not so any more. We college students are under various kinds of pressure. First of all, most of us are burdenedwith a heavy tuition fee, which keeps on increasing every year. So some of us have to work over ten hours every week. Life for those who can get financial help from their parents is not easy either, as they very often have to follow their parents’ advice and take a major they don’t like. Finally those who are about to graduate suffer from a different kind of pressure: hunting for a job. It is no longer easy for a college student to get a decently paid job these days.(134 words)The Answers to Unit 2Enhance Your Language Awareness Section A Useful ExpressionsUseful Expressions from Text A Chinese Equivalencesdon’t know whether to laugh or cry 哭笑不得it is no use doing…做……是没有用的to a certain extent 在某种程度上have a great advantage over sb. 比某人有优势cannot afford to do sth. 负担不起……go to the opposite extreme 走到另一个极端let alone 更别说be fond of doing sth. 喜欢做……it is a pity (that) 遗憾……in my personal opinion 我个人认为be similar to…与……相似It is worth doing 值得做……Useful Expressions from Text B Chinese Equivalenceshave great trouble with…做……很吃力try at all costs to do sth. 不惜任何代价做……rid them of their fear and dislike of books 消除他们对书本的厌恶和恐惧心理do sth. for pleasure 出于乐趣而做……mean every word of it 说话算数(I) Working with Words and Expressions1.

I should say that I am highly motivated to master English. First of all, learning English is useful, as it is becoming a world language and people from different countries often communicate with one another in English. If I am good at English, it will be much easier for me to communicate with them. Secondly, I like traveling a lot. A good mastery of English will make things much easier for me when traveling around the world. Finally, I like literature a lot. If I am very good at English, I can read great works by Shakespeare and Dickens and many other English writers instead of reading the translated versions.▆Sample essay TwoWhy I hate to learn EnglishI have learned English for about seven years. I should say the more I learn English, the more I hate it. First of all, learning English is boring. I have to memorize many new words or rely on a dictionary to frequently check unknown words. Doing so wastes a lot of my precious time. Secondly, I don’t understand why we have to learn a foreign language. I don’t want to go abroad and I can always find a job that doesn’t need English in China. Finally, I can always read translated versions of the books I want to read. So, if I don’t have to learn English, I would r ather use the time I spend on English to do things I like.Unit 3 Parents and ChildrenEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action2 In the box below are some of the words you have learnedin this unit.
