People thousands of miles away from each other can send and receive detailed documents within mere seconds. This allows us to take on projects that wouldn’t have been practical or possible only a few years ago. It has become routine for us to correspond and exchange files with people overseas. The only obstacle is the difference in time zones.But on the other hand, e-mail can eat up a substantial portion of our workday. Most of the time and effort involved is going through unsolicited messages and separating the good from the bad. But not all unsolicited messages are spam.Text E-mail, a Blessing and AnnoyanceFor the blessing:E-mail is a conversation that does not require an immediate response (like a telephone). If someone calls you on the telephone, you pick it up (unless you have an answering machine, voice mail or you are just plain rude) and the conversation begins. This is an interactive conversation. With e-mail, you send a message and then wait for a response. The response may come in five minutes or it may come in five days. Either way, it’s not an interactive conversation.If a hundred people send you e-mails in one day, so what? You don’t have to talk with all one hundred. Just think of all the hellos, goodbyes and other unnecessary chit-chat you can avoid. With e-mail, you only deal with their messages (which usually omit hellos, goodbyes and such) and you deal with them on your own time. That’s the blessing.Now for the annoyance:Too many e-mail users assume that the minute someone receives ane-mail, the person will read it. Bad assumption.If you schedule a meeting for an hour from now and send an e-mail to each participant, the chance that all the participants will read that message within the hour will be pretty small. On the other hand, if you schedule the meeting for the next day, the chance that they will read the message will be pretty high. Remember, e-mail is not designed for immediate response (that’s why you have a telephone), it’s designed for convenience.Some (not all) e-mail systems have features that try to combat this problem. These features (usually called “notification”) will notify you when a person has received your e-mail and may also tell you when the person has read it (really all it can do is assure you that the person has looked at the first screen of the message — it has no way to know if the person has read the message word for word). Referring back to the example in the previous paragraph, you could check to see who has checked their e-mail before the meeting and then telephone those who have not read it.Attachment: SmiliesSince there are no facial and voice cues to help e-mail, users have come up with something called “smilies”. They are simple series of symbols that are pieced together in the e-mail text to help express the writer’s feelings. The most common example is :-) (a smiling face). Here are some more examples.They are typically found at the end of sentences and will usually refer back to the previous statement.Language Points1 Explanation of Difficult Sentences1. (Para. 3) If a hundred people send you e-mail in one day, so what?Analysis: so what? is an informal expression, which means “ Why should I care?”Translation: 如果在一天内有一百个人给你发邮件，那又怎么样呢？2. (Para. 3) Just think of all the hellos, good-byes and other unnecessary chit-chat you could avoid.Analysis: Just is used to make a statement or command stronger, meaning in Chinese “只是，仅仅”。

Pre-reading questions for discussionDiscuss and answer the following questions.1.What ,in your opinion,are the disadvantages of growing older?2. What do you think are the virtues of being young?3.Most people are afraid of death and therefore afraid of getting older,but are there any virtues of old age that you can observe and appreciate?Step II. An Integrated Analysis of Text 1The Virtues of Growing Older.Structural analysis of the text1. The passage can be divided into three parts.Part One: (Paragraph 1-2 ) this is the introductory paragraphIt tells that our society worships youth and being young is often pleasant ,but being older has distinct advantages.Part Two: (Paragraph 3-5) It describes the virtues of growing older in details:We no longer feel anxious about what others will think ;We have already made many of critical decisions;The greatest benefit of being older is knowing who i am.Part Three:（Paragraph 6）this is a conclusion paragraphThe writer winds up her discussion with a reference to her parents’ contentments in the last paragraph.Step III. Comprehension questionsAnalysis of Paragraghs1-21)Why do people want to hide their gray hair and delay the effect of aging? They worship youth and are afraid of growing older, so they try every means to look young.2)What does the writer mean when she says “it is un-American to say so”?She means these questions seem contrary to the values commonly held by most American people. And the American people would do anything possible to delay aging.3)Does the writer deny the virtues of being young?No, she does not. The writer admits the virtues of being young, but what she really wants to talk about is those advantages of growing older, which are discussed in the subsequent paragraphs. So the last sentence of the second paragraph is both thematic and transitionalParagraph 3AnalysisThe writer, in this paragraph, offers the first advantage of growing older －not being obsessed with one’s appearance. It can be noticed that the technique of contrast is used to project the difference between adolescents and people in their forties:“When my brother Dave and I were teens…”“When Dave and I were young…”“Now, however, Dave and I are beyond such adolescent agonies.”“Now my clothes are attractive yet easy to wear.”“We no longer feel anxious…”These contrasts are focused on two aspects: the shape of their bodies and clothes. With her own experience, the writer drives home her point that adolescents “feel anxious about what others will think”, while older people are happy “as long as we feel good about how we look”.The following question could be asked:1)What is the change in people’s attitude towards their appearance from the writer’s own experience?Old people no longer feel anxious about what others will think. As long as they feel good about what they look, they are happy.Paragraph 4AnalysisThe second advantage is discussed in this paragraph －people in their forties are less uncertain than adolescents. The last sentence pinpoints the writer’s view: what truly worries the young people is not the problem of age, but the unknowns in the future.The following question could be asked:Is it accurate to say that older people are totally free from uncertainty?No, because they still have important choices to make. However, they have already made their major ones, while the young people will meet theirs at every turn. Paragraph 5AnalysisThis paragraph presents the third and the greatest benefit of growing older: the knowledge about yourself (the self-identity). It is implied that lack of this knowledge can bring about a kind of adolescent insanity (in contrast with the sanity of forty-year-olds) expressed in parallel structures “It means…”, “Being young means…”The following questions could be asked:1)What is the meaning of “…wishing you were never born the next”?It is related with first half of the sentence and the complete one should be “feeling happy with yourself one day and wishing you were never born the next day (because you feel so miserable)”.2)How to explain the phrase “keep a running score of everything they didwrong raising me”?It means “constantly reminding yourself of all the unhappy things that your parents did to you in the process of raising you”. Here “score” means “record”Language points.Paragraph 6After sharing her own experience in contrast to adolescents’ problems with the reader, in this paragraph the writer turns to the issue similar to the one mentioned in the first paragraph: the validity of American values on the aging problem. The writer cites her parents’ example to back her view, thus echoing the theme －distinct advantages of growing older makes a better phase of life.Step IV Language points:1.convince v.1)convince sb / yourself (of sth) to make sb/yourself believe that sth is truee.g. you’ll need to convince them of your enthusiasm fo r the job.I’d convinced myself (that) I was right.2) to persuade sb to do sthe.g. I’ve been trying to convince him to see a doctor.2.…glaldly sign with the devil just to be young again: Literally, the phrase “signwith the devil” means “to sign a contract with the devil, so that the devil would help you become young again”.

People thousands of miles away from each other can send and receive detailed documents within mere seconds. This allows us to take on projects that wouldn’t have been practical or possible only a few years ago. It has become routine for us to correspond and exchange files with people overseas. The only obstacle is the difference in time zones.But on the other hand, e-mail can eat up a substantial portion of our workday. Most of the time and effort involved is going through unsolicited messages and separating the good from the bad. But not all unsolicited messages are spam.Text E-mail, a Blessing and AnnoyanceFor the blessing:E-mail is a conversation that does not require an immediate response (like a telephone). If someone calls you on the telephone, you pick it up (unless you have an answering machine, voice mail or you are just plain rude) and the conversation begins. This is an interactive conversation.With e-mail, you send a message and then wait for a response. The response may come in five minutes or it may come in five days. Either way, it’s not an interactive conversation.If a hundred people send you e-mails in one day, so what? You don’t have to talk with all one hundred. Just think of all the hellos, goodbyes and other unnecessary chit-chat you can avoid. With e-mail, you only deal with their messages (which usually omit hellos, goodbyes and such) and you deal with them on your own time. That’s the blessing.Now for the annoyance:Too many e-mail users assume that the minute someone receives an e-mail, the person will read it. Bad assumption.If you schedule a meeting for an hour from now and send an e-mail to eachparticipant, the chance that all the participants will read that message within the hour will be pretty small. On the other hand, if you schedule the meeting for the next day, the chance that they will read the message will be pretty high. Remember, e-mail is not designed for immediate response (that’s why you have a telephone), it’s designed for convenience.Some (not all) e-mail systems have features that try to combat this problem. These features (usually called “notification”) will notify you when a person has received your e-mail and may also tell you when the person has read it (really all it can do is assure you that the person has looked at the first screen of the message —it has no way to know if the person has read the message word for word). Referring back to the example in the previous paragraph, you could check to see who has checked their e-mail before the meeting and then telephone those who have not read it.Attachment: SmiliesSince there are no facial and voice cues to help e-mail, users have come up with something called “smilies”. They are simple series of symbols that are pieced together in the e-mail text to help express the writer’s feelings. The most common example is :-) (a smiling face). Here are some more examples.They are typically found at the end of sentences and will usually refer back to the previous statement.Language Points1 Explanation of Difficult Sentences1. (Para. 3) If a hundred people send you e-mail in one day, so what?Analysis: so what? is an informal expression, which means “Why should I care?”Translation: 如果在一天内有一百个人给你发邮件，那又怎么样呢？2. (Para. 3) Just think of all the hellos, good-byes and other unnecessary chit-chat you could avoid.Analysis: Just is used to make a statement or command stronger, meaning in Chinese“只是，仅仅”。
