Ruins of the later wall are found today along former border areas from Bo Hai in the east to Gansu Province in the west.1)What was the aim of building the Great Wall originally?To protect China’s northern border in the 3rd century BC.2) Where are the ruins of the Great Wall located now?From Bo Hai in the east to Gansu Province in the west.CastleCastles were built in places where they could be easily defended. A position on high ground provided the defenders with a view of the surrounding countryside, making attacks more difficult. In flat areas, castles were surrounded by a protective moat.5.Security Situations in the USATerrorist Attacks on Sept. 11, 2001Wherever you were in lower Manhattan before September 11th, 2001, two buildings dominated the landscape. Critics said the World Trade Center towers didn’t relate to their surroundings and weren’t especially pleasing in design. But the fact is that they were big, undeniably and frighteningly so, and a walk across the plaza in summer months could make your head reel. On February 26, 1993, the World Trade Center complex was rocked by an explosive device left in one of the underground parking lots; sit people were killed and over a thousand injured.On the morning of September 11, 2001, the United States of America awoke to find itself under attack. Several terrorist attacks within an hour wreaked havoc in New York City and Washington, D.C., causing widespread devastation and more than five thousand casualties on September 11, 2001. It was the deadliest day in American history, costing more lives than the attack on Pearl Harbor or D-Day.

I, unfortunately, will be going back to Washington after my remarks. Secretary Rod Paige and the Lieutenant Governor (副州长) will take the podium (讲台) and discuss education. I do want to thank the folds here at Booker Elementary School for their hospitality. Today we’ve had a national tragedy. Two airplanes have crashed into the World Trade Center in an apparent terrorist attack on our country. I have spoken to the Vice President, to the Governor of New York, to the Director of the FBI, and have ordered that the full resources of the federal government got help the victims and their families, and to conduct a full-scale investigation to hunt down and to find those folks who committed this act. Terrorism against our nation will not stand. And now if you would join me in a moment of silence. May God bless the victims, their families, and America.Thank you very much.American Campus ShootingDetroit:On December 11,1998, Wayne State University professor was shot and killed whilecollecting final exams from his engineering students when the gunman stepped into the classroom and opened fire with a rifle.

Two of them died.Ⅲ. Global Reading2.Further UnderstandingFor Part 1 True or False1)The phrase “on the latch” means the door is closed and locked. (F)This phrase means the door is closed but not locked.2)Nowadays, doors, not only in cities but also in rural areas, are locked. (T)3)Urban streets are more dangerous than outskirts and country areas. (F)Suburbs and country areas are more dangerous than urban streets.4) In America nowadays, no one leaves his front door on the latch anymore. (T)For Part 2Supporting Facts for the Central IdeaIn this part the author uses lots of facts to support his central pint of view: America is deteriorating from “the Land of the Free” into “the most insecure nation”.Could you find any more supporting facts in addition to those listed below?1)Doors are not left unlocked either in cities or in rural areas.2)Dead-bolt locks, security chains, electronic alarm systems and trip wires are widelyin use.3)Suburban families have steel bars built in sliding glass doors.4)Small notices warming against burglary are commonly seen pasted on the windowsof the most pleasant of homes.5)Access cards are required of those who work with medium- to large-size companies.6)Airport security uses electronic X-ray equipment to guard against terrorism.7)Businessmen employ new machines linked up the their telephone to determinewhether the caller is telling lies or not.8)Suburban housewives wear rape whistles on their key chains.DiscussionIn Line 19 to Line 22, the author mentions a public service advertisement by a large insurance company. Discuss the following questions.1)What does this ad point out?The lock is the new symbol of America.2) What is the author’s purpose of using this example?Sentence CompletionRead Part 2 carefully and supply the missing information.1)We have become so used to defending ourselves against the new atmosphere ofAmerican life, and so used to putting up barriers.2)We are satisfied when we think we are well-protected.3)With electronic X-ray equipment, we seem finally to have figured out a way to holdthe terrorists at bay.4)We do not want to afford ourselves even so much a luxury as a shadow.For Part 3Questions and Answers1)Under what excuse do people resort to all these means mentioned in Part 2?In the name of “Security”.2)Does the author think they are justified in doing so?No. Because in the author’s opinion, America becomes the most insecurenation with all these means.3)According to the author, what may be the legacy we remember best when we recallthis era?We became prisoners of ourselves when we deal with the unseen horrors among us.3. Word Scanning1)Scan the text to find all the sentences containing the word “lock” or the wordwith “lock” as its root.A“lock”a) … the door was closed but not locked. (Line 3)b) It has been replaced by dead-bolt locks, security chains, electronic alarmsystems… (Line 12)c)The lock is the new symbol of America. (Line 19)d)… the transformation of America from the Land of the Free to the Land of theLock. (Line 27)e) … we devise ways to lock the fear out. (Line 62)f)We may have locked the evils out, but in so doing we have locked ourselves in.(Line 71)B “lock”a) … doors do not stay unlocked, …(Line 7)b) … a picture of a child’s bicycle with the now-usual padlock attached to it.(Line 22)2)Based on these sentences, summarize the main idea of this text.Text AnalysisWhen we read, we are not only learning new vocabulary or structures, but also looking for key information. Identifying keywords is even more important if our reading time is not that plentiful."Lock" is the keyword in this text, by locating "lock's" throughout the text, we get a pretty good idea of what this essay is about.There are several examples of comparison and contrast in this article: Para 1 vs. Para 4, Para 10 vs. Para 11, Para 12 vs. Para 13. The first pair acts as the opening of the whole piece of writing. The latter two are just two supporting details for the central argument.It's interesting to see how the author threads his narration back and forth between the past and the present. Never for once does he write "in the past" or "at present" explicitly. He has still cleverer devices at hand, like a subtle tense change (e.g. simple past in Para 1 vs. present perfect in Para 4), a phrase that indicated an old habit incontrast with a phrase indicating the current state (i.e. "used to" vs. "no longer" in Para 11), or a summary sentence ("It wasn't always like that" in Para 12).Ⅳ. Detailed ReadingWords, phrases and sentencesPart One (P 1~P3) In America, the era of leaving the front door on the latch hasdrawn to a close.1.(L2)on the latch: (of a door) closed but not locked (门)关着但没上锁Dictation: Let yourself in; the door is on the latch.---Don’t forget to leave the front door on the latch if you go to bed before I come back.2.(L2)I don’t know if that was a local term or if it is universal.1)“Local” means “of a particular place”, while “universal” means “common to allconditions, or situations”.2)Translate the sentence into Chinese我不知道这是当地的一种说法,还是大家都是这么说的…3. (L6) rural: adj.乡下的;农村的; 有乡村特点的of, in or suggesting the countryside ---By the year 2003 urban residents will outnumber rural residents in most developing countries.---庄稼种在乡村地区。

College English Integrated CourseBook Three Unit OneChanges in the Way We LiveText A Changes in the Way We LiveObjectivesStudents will be able to:1.grasp the main idea (tolerance for solitude and energy made it possible for the writer's family to enjoy theirpleasant but sometimes harsh country life);2.appreciate the various techniques employed by the writer (comparison and contrast, topic sentencesfollowed by detail sentences, use of transitional devices, etc.);3.master the key language points and grammatical structures in the text;4.conduct a series of reading, listening, speaking and writing activities related to the theme of the unit. Time AllotmentPre-reading Tasks1.T asks Ss the following questions on the song Out in the Country:— What is the song about? (taking a break from city life, escaping from the crowd)— How is the song related to the theme of this unit? (The singer needs a break because the pace of life has quickened, the environment has been changed, and the old life style is gone.)2.1) Ss divide into three large groups, under each group smaller sub-groups may form. Each large group isassigned one of the following discussion topics:—Why do so many migrant workers (民工) move from the country to the city?— Why do city people buy apartments or houses in the suburbs, even in the countryside?2) After the discussion, speakers of some sub-groups report to class.3) T may sum up like this: People change their places of living because they look for things that theirprevious life is unable to provide. However, once life has been changed, they miss the good old days. 3.Ss do Cloze B in after-text exercises to learn about Americans' ideal of a country life. Then T leads in tothe study of Text A.Text Organization and AnalysisCollege English Integrated Course 1The author writes his piece in a clear and logical way. In many instances he employs the pattern of “one topic sentence + several detail sentences” structure.It’s easy for readers to grasp the main idea, and it is also proven effective for learner writers like our students.Sometimes the detail sentences run parallel to each other, like those in Para 2. In some other paragraphs the detail sentences have their own hierarchy. Take Para 5 for example. The first sentence tells how busy “I” am. The second sentence states that Sandy, the wife, is also busy. The final sentence is a kind of summary—nobody can relax. Yet following the second sentence there are a few more detail sentences showing exactly how tight a schedule Sandy has. Take Paras 12-13 for another example. The topic sentence therein is “I suspect not everyone who loves the country would be happy living the way we do. It takes a couple of special qualities.” Then there are two sub-topic sentences: “One is a tolerance for solitude”; “The other requirement is energy—a lot of it.” Each sub-topic sentence has its own supporting details.Sometimes there is no transitional devices between detail sentences, sometimes there are, the most frequently used one of which is time words or phrases. For example, the detail sentences in Para 4 begin with “three months ago”, “three months from now”, “recently”, and “later this month”, respectively. To be sure, other conjuncti ons scatter the text, like “first”, “then”, “then”, “eventually” in Para 7.Cultural Notes1.the countryside: The countryside of Britain is well known for its beauty and many contrasts: its baremountains and moorland, its lakes, rivers and woods, and its long, often wild coastline. Many of the most beautiful areas are national parks and are protected from development. When British people think of farmland, as well as open spaces, they imagine cows or sheep in green fields enclosed by hedges or stone walls, and fields of wheat and barley.Many people associate the countryside with peace and relaxation. They spend their free time walking or cycling there, or go to the country for a picnic or a pub lunch. Only a few people who live in the country work on farms. Many commute to work in towns. Many others dream of living in the country, where they believe they would have a better and healthier lifestyle.America has many areas of wild and beautiful scenery, and there are many areas, especially in the West in states like Montana and Wyoming, where few people live. In the New England states, such as Vermont and New Hampshire, it is common to see small farms surrounded by hills and green areas. In Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other Midwestern states, fields of corn or wheat reach to the horizon and there are many miles between towns.Only about 20% of Americans live outside cities and towns. Life may be difficult for people who live in the country. Services like hospitals and schools may be further away, and going shopping can mean driving long distances. Some people even have to drive from their homes to the main road where their mail is left in a box. In spite of the disadvantages, many people who live in the country say that they like the safe, clean, attractive environment. But their children often move to a town or city as soon as they can.As in Britain, Americans like to go out to the country at weekends. Some people go on camping or fishing trips, others go hiking in national parks.2.Fahrenheit scale: a scale of temperature, first established by the German physicist Gabriel Fahrenheit in1715. The unit of temperature is the degree Fahrenheit (°F), and 0°F was originally the coldest temperature Fahrenheit could achieve using a freezing mixture of salt and ice. On his scale, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F (under set atmospheric conditions). No longer used in scientific work, Fahrenheit temperatures still feature in everyday language; hot days "in the eighties", for example. To convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius (centigrade), subtract 32, then multiply by 5/9.3.Celsius scale: a scale of hotness, or temperature, first established by the Swedish scientist Anders Celsius(1701-1744) in 1742. On this scale, the unit of temperature is the degree Celsius (°C); water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C (under agreed standard atmospheric conditions), although when Celsius originally devised the scale he made 100°the boiling-point and 0° the freezing-point. The Celsius scale was formerly commonly known as the centigrade scale because of the 100 divisions between the freezing- andCollege English Integrated Course 2boiling-points of water. To convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit multiply by 9/5 and add 32.4.Ivy League: eight long-established colleges and universities in the United States with prestigiousacademic and social reputations. Members of the Ivy League are Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island; Columbia University in New York City; Cornell University in Ithaca, New York; Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire; Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts; University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia; Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey; and Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. The members of the Ivy League compete in intercollegiate athletics.5.Sports Illustrated: a popular US sports magazine published each week by Time Inc. part of Time Warner.It first appeared in 1954, and is read mainly by men. The magazine also publishes the Sports Illustrated Sports Almanac every year.6.Individual Retirement Account (IRA): a US government plan that allows people to put part of theirincome into special bank accounts. No tax has to be paid on this money until they retire.7.Buying Insurance: People face many choices when buying insurance policies. They commonly choose aninsurance provider based on several criteria. Some of the most important of these include: 1) the financial stability of the insurance company, 2) the price of policies, and 3) details of coverage and service.Only a financially sound company can fulfill its promise to pay in all circumstances. Companies with proven records of stability can provide insurance security. Choice of a provider based solely on price, on the other hand, may result in poor service and coverage, even if the provider advertises comprehensive coverage and high quality service.Policy prices vary significantly among companies, but competition usually forces most companies’ prices into a narrow range. The greater cost of some policies may pay off in the long run through better protection. Thus, a detailed examination of coverage in policies provided by different, well-regarded companies can help consumers make the best choice based on the risks they face, their needs, and their finances.People seeking to buy insurance often use the services of an insurance agent or broker to assist in their purchase. Most insurance falls into four main categories, according to what it covers: 1) property and casualty, 2) life, 3) health and disability, and 4) old-age and unemployment. Insurers commonly refer to insurance purchased by individuals as personal lines coverage and to insurance purchased by businesses as commercial coverage.Language Study1.get by: be good enough but not very good; manage to live or do things in a satisfactory way Examples:My parents managed to get by on a small amount of money.It is a little bit difficult for the old couple to get by on such a small pension.We can get by with four computers at the moment, but we'll need a couple more when the newstaff members arrive.2.... when it was 30 below: Here the Celsius scale is used instead of the Fahrenheit scale, (see CulturalNotes)3.indoor: situated or used inside a buildingExamples: Indoor pollution has been found to be as much as five to ten times higher inside some skyscrapers than outside.Tobacco smoke is considered as an indoor pollutant.The Mall of America, the biggest mall in USA includes the world's largest indoor amusementpark.4.pursue: followExamples: After graduation Martin chose to pursue the same career as his father as a minister.College students are advised to pursue a wide range of subjects.Public evening classes allow people to earn a living during the day and pursue vocational andintellectual interests in their spare time.5.get through: come successfully to the endExamples: The local government has taken some measures to ensure that all the people will get through the winter.She got through the entrance examination and was accepted by the college.College English Integrated Course 36.at that point: at that very moment, right thenExamples: The train was now only a couple of yards from the kids on the track.

Text A in this unit is a good case in point. Readers need some basic knowledge of Christianity. Some terms in this text are markedly Christian, like “Methodist Minister”, “Bible”, “Quaker”. Others refer to characters or places fro m Biblical stories, such as Moses who led the Jewish people out of slavery in Egypt, or Bethlehem, a holy city for Christian.The author tells three stories about the Underground Railroad and the early Black civil rights movement. The three stories are chosen because they are representative of all participants in this movement: John Parker is a freed slave who later turned into a courageous “conductor”; Levi Coffin is a brave white “conductor”; Josiah Henson is a slave who struggled his way to freedom with the help of the Underground Railroad.We learn about the name of Josiah Henson at the beginning of the text, yet his full story is not told until the last part. In this way the author achieves coherence of text.Direct speech is more convincing than indirect speech, especially when it comes to expressing personal beliefs. For example, the text quotes Levi Coffin saying “The Bible, in bidding us to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, said nothing about color.”On other occasion, direct speech makes a story more vivid. For example, in the John Parker story, characters spoke short sentences to stress the urgency of the situation. For another example, Josiah Henson threw himself to the ground and shouted to astonished onlookers: “Oh, no! Don’t you know? I’m free!” His joy affects us all.Cultural Notes1. Freedom and rights:Freedom of the individual is considered one of the essential features of westerncivilization, which is itself sometimes called the Free World. This freedom is often expressed in terms of rights to do certain things or to be treated in a particularly way. When a person does something that others think strange, British and American people will often say, “it’s a free country.” Meaning that although they disagree with the choice they recogniz e the other person’s right to make it.Americans sometimes call the US the “land of the freed”, a phrase taken from it national anthem.British people have always strongly defended their freedom. Fear that they will lose the freedom to decide their won fut ure is behind many people’s lack of enthusiasm for European unity.In Britain and the US the most basic rights include freedom of expression (=freedom to say or write anything), freedom of choice (=freedom to make decisions about your own life) and freedom of worship (=freedom to practice any religion).2. The civil rights movement: (in the US) the national campaign by African-Americans for equal rights,especially in the 1950s and 1960s. the campaign included boycotts( =refusal to buy particular products).The actions of freedom riders, and in 1963 a march to Washington led by Martin Luther King. It succeeded in causing the introduction of bussing and affirmative action. The Civil Rights Act of 1965 were also introduced as a result of the civil rights movement, which has helped to change the attitudes of many white American.3. the Civil Rights Act of 1964: the US law that forced the southern states to allow African-Americans toenter restaurants, hotels, etc. which had been reserved for white people only and to end the practice of having separate areas for black and white people in theatres, train stations, buses, etc. the act was mostly the result of civil rights movement and was strongly supported by President Lyndon Johnson. It was followed the next year by the V oting Rights Act.4. Uncle Tom’s Cabin: a novel (1852) by the US writer Harriet Beecher Stowe which increased support forthe movement to free slaves. It is about a kind slave called Tom who is badly treated and finally killed byCollege English Integrated Course 7Simon Legree. Tom’s daughter Little Eva also dies, and another well-known character in the novel is the slave child Topsy. The name Uncle Tom is sometimes used as and insult to describe an African-American who has too much respect for white people.5. the Underground Railroad: a secret system used in the US before the Civil War for helping thousands ofslaves to escape to the free northern states or Canada. The slaves were called “passengers”, the people who helped them were “conductors”, and the slaves hid in “stations” (safe houses) along the way.5.Slavery: Slavery played a particularly important role in the history of the US.The first slaves were taken to North America from Africa by the Dutch in 1619. By the time of the American Revolution (1775) there were 500,000 slaves, mostly in the South. After the Revolution the northern states made slavery illegal but the South needed cheap labor for the cotton plantations. Gradually the South’s economy became dependent on slaves and by 1860, the year before the Civil War, ther e were about 4 million slaves.Conflict between the North and the South increased, and it became clear that supporters and opponents of slavery could not continue to be part of the same country. In 1861 the slave states left the US and formed their own government. This was the beginning of the Civil.After the North won the Civil War and brought the southern states back into the US, slavery was ended. But little changed for former slaves. Some moved to the North but there were not enough jobs there and many suffered prejudice from Whites. Those that stayed in the South often worked on the plantations where they had been slaves. They were paid for their work, but had to buy food and clothes. Many had to stay there trying to pay off debts which became larger each year.6.Bill Clinton (1946- ): the 42nd US President, elected in 1992 and 1996. He is a Democrat and waspreviously the governor of Arkansas. The US economy improved under Clinton, and the North American Free Trade Agreement has been signed. His successes in helping to achieve world peace include the Camp David Agreement for the Near East and the Dayton Agreement to end the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina.His wife Hillary (1947- ) tried without success to improve the US health system. In 1998 President Clinton admitted that he had had a sexual relationship with Monical Lewinsky, a junior member of the Whit House staff, after denying it earlier. He was impeached for lying under oath and obstructing justice, but the senate judged him not guilty.7.Quaker: any member of the Society of Friends, a religious group established in England n the 1650s byGeorge Fox. They were originally called Quakers because members were thought to “quake” or shake with religious excitement. Quakers worship Christ without any formal ceremony or fixed beliefs, and their meetings often involve silent thought or prayer. They are strongly opposed to violence and war, and are active in education and charity work.8.Grand Central Terminal: the best-known railway station in the US. It is on East 42nd Street in New Yorkand was completed in 1913 in the American Beaux Arts style. The main area is very large, and the trains enter and leave the station on 123 tracks, arranged on two levels. The station is often very crowded: You can’t move in there--- it’s like Grand Central Station!9.Methodist: a member of the Methodist Church, the largest of the Protestant Free Churches in Britain andthe US. It was established in 1739 by John Wesley as part of the Church of England but it became separate from it in 1795. it was introduced into the US in the 18th century and today has over 50 million members around the world. It emphasized the importance of moral issues, both personal and social.10.the Deep South:the most southern states of the south-east US: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,Mississippi, South Carolina and eastern Texas. They are among the states that once had slaves and left the Union during the Civil War. They still have racial problems and the people there are mostly conservative in their politics and religion.Language Study1.slender: a.

Time Allotment1st period 2nd period 3rd period 4th periodPre-reading tasks Text organization Language study Post-reading tasksCultural notes Language study Text analysisPre-reading Tasks1.T asks Ss the following questions on the song Out in the Country:—What is the song about? (taking a break from city life, escaping from thecrowd)—How is the song related to the theme of this unit? (The singer needs a break because the pace of life hasquickened, the environment has been changed, and the old life style is gone.)2.1) Ss divide into three large groups, under each group smaller sub-groups may form. Each large group isassigned one of the following discussion topics:—Why do so many migrant workers ( 民工) move from the country tothe city?—Why do city people buy apartments or houses in the suburbs, even in the countryside?2) After the discussion, speakers of some sub-groups report to class.3) T may sum up like this: People change their places of living because they look for things that theirprevious life is unable to provide. However, once life has been changed, they miss the good old days. 3. Ss do Cloze B in after-text exercises to learn about Americans' ideal of a country life. Then T leads in tothe study of Text A.Text Organization and AnalysisParts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1-3 The writer views his life in the country as a self-reliant and satisfying one.Part Two Paras 4-7 Life in the country is good yet sometimes very hard.Part Three Paras 8- 11 After quitting his job, the writer 's income was reduced, but heand his family can manage to get by.1College English Integrated CourseBook Three Unit One全新版大学英语综合教程第三册Part Four Para 12-15 A tolerance for solitude and a lot of energy have made it possiblefor the family to enjoy their life in the country.The author writes his piece in a clear and logical way. In many instances he employs the pattern of “onetopic sentence + several detail sentences ” structure. It 's easyfor readers to grasp the main idea, and it is alsoproven effective for learner writers like our students.Sometimes the detail sentences run parallel to each other, like those in Para 2. In some other paragraphs the detail sentences have their own hierarchy. Take Para 5 for example. The first sentence tells how busy “ I ” am. The second sentence stat es that Sandy, the wife, is also busy. The final sentence is a kind of summaryYet following the second sentence there are a few more—nobody can relax. detail sentences showing exactly how tight a scheduleSandy has. Take Paras 12-13 for another example. T he topic sentence therein is “Isuspect not everyone who loves the country would be happy living the way we do. It takes a couple of special qualities. ” Then there are two sub- topic sentences: “One is a tolerance for solitude ”; “The other requirement is energy —a lot of it. ” Each sub -topic sentence has itsown supporting details.Sometimes there is no transitional devices between detail sentences, sometimes there are, the most frequently used one of which is time words or phrases. For example, the detail sentences in Para 4 begin with“three months ago ”, “three months from now ”, “ recently ” , and “later this month ”, respectively. To be sure, other conjunctions scatter the text, like “first ”, “then”, “then ”, “eventually ” inPara 7.Cultural Notes1.the countryside: The countryside of Britain is well known for its beauty and many contrasts: its baremountains and moorland, its lakes, rivers and woods, and its long, often wild coastline. Many of the mostbeautiful areas are national parks and are protected from development. When British people think offarmland, as well as open spaces, they imagine cows or sheep in green fields enclosed by hedges or stonewalls, and fields of wheat and barley.Many people associate the countryside with peace and relaxation. They spend their free time walkingor cycling there, or go to the country for a picnic or a pub lunch. Only a few people who live in thecountry work on farms. Many commute to work in towns. Many others dream of living in the country,where they believe they would have a better and healthier lifestyle.America has many areas of wild and beautiful scenery, and there are many areas, especially in theWest in states like Montana and Wyoming, where few people live. In the New England states, such asVermont and New Hampshire, it is common to see small farms surrounded by hills and green areas. InOhio, Indiana, Illinois and other Midwestern states, fields of corn or wheat reach to the horizon and thereare many miles between towns.Only about 20% of Americans live outside cities and towns. Life may be difficult for people wholive in the country. Services like hospitals and schools may be further away, and going shopping can meandriving long distances. Some people even have to drive from their homes to the main road where theirmail is left in a box. In spite of the disadvantages, many people who live in the country say that they likethe safe, clean, attractive environment. But their children often move to a town or city as soon as they can.As in Britain, Americans like to go out to the country at weekends. Some people go on camping orfishing trips, others go hiking in national parks.2.Fahrenheit scale: a scale of temperature, first established bythe German physicist Gabriel Fahrenheit in1715. The unit of temperature is the degree Fahrenheit (?F), and 0?F was originally the coldest temperatureFahrenheit could achieve using a freezing mixture of salt and ice.On his scale, water freezes at 32?F andboils at 212?F (under set atmospheric conditions). No longer used in scientific work, Fahrenheittemperatures still feature in everyday language; hot days "in the eighties", for example. To convert aFahrenheit temperature to Celsius (centigrade), subtract 32, then multiply by5/9.3.Celsius scale: a scale of hotness, or temperature, first established by the Swedish scientist Anders Celsius(1701-1744) in 1742. On this scale, the unit of temperature is the degree Celsius (?C); water freezes at 0?Cand boils at 100? C (under agreed standard atmospheric conditions), although when Celsius originallydevised the scale he made 100?the boiling-point and 0? the freezingpoint. The Celsius scale was formerlycommonly known as the centigrade scale because of the 100 divisions betweenthe freezing- and2College English Integrated CourseBook Three Unit One 全新版大学英语综合教程第三册boiling-points of water. To convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit multiply by 9/5 and add 32. 4. Ivy League: eight long- established colleges and universities in the United States with prestigiousacademic and social reputations. Members of the Ivy League are Brown University in Providence, RhodeIsland; Columbia University in New York City; Cornell University in Ithaca, New York; DartmouthCollege in Hanover, New Hampshire; Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts; University ofPennsylvania in Philadelphia; Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey; and Yale University in NewHaven, Connecticut. The members of the Ivy League compete in intercollegiate athletics. 5. Sports Illustrated: a popular US sports magazine published each week by Time Inc. part of Time Warner.It first appeared in 1954, and is read mainly by men. The magazine also publishes the Sports IllustratedSports Almanac every year.6. Individual Retirement Account (IRA): a US government plan that allows people to put part of theirincome into special bank accounts. No tax has to be paid on this money until they retire. 7. Buying Insurance: People face many choices when buying insurancepolicies. They commonly choose aninsurance provider based on several criteria. Some of the most important of these include: 1) the financialstability of the insurance company, 2) the price of policies, and 3) details of coverage and service.Only a financially sound company can fulfill its promise to pay in all circumstances. Companieswith proven records of stability can provide insurance security. Choice of a provider based solely on price,on the other hand, may result in poor service and coverage, even if the provider advertises comprehensivecoverage and high quality service.Policy prices vary significantly among companies, but competition usually forces most companies 'prices into a narrow range. The greater cost of some policies may pay off in the long run through betterprotection. Thus, a detailed examination of coverage in policies provided by different, well-regardedcompanies can help consumers make the best choice based on the risks they face, their needs, and theirfinances.People seeking to buy insurance often use the services of an insurance agent or broker to assist intheir purchase. Most insurance falls into four main categories, according to whatit covers: 1) property andcasualty, 2) life, 3) health and disability, and 4) old-age and unemployment. Insurers commonly refer toinsurance purchased by individuals as personal lines coverage and to insurance purchased by businessesas commercial coverage.Language Study1. get by: be good enough but not very good; manage to live or do things in a satisfactory way Examples:My parents managed to get by on a small amount of money.It is a little bit difficult for the old couple to get by on such a small pension.We can get by with four computers at the moment, but we'll need a couple more when the newstaff members arrive.2. ... when it was 30 below: Here the Celsius scale is used instead of the Fahrenheit scale, (see CulturalNotes)3.indoor: situated or used inside a buildingExamples: Indoor pollution has been found to be as much as five to ten times higher inside someskyscrapers than outside.Tobacco smoke is considered as an indoor pollutant.The Mall of America, the biggest mall in USA includes the world's largest indoor amusementpark.4.pursue: followExamples: After graduation Martin chose to pursue the same career as his father as a minister.College students are advised to pursue a wide range of subjects.Public evening classes allow people to earn a living during the day and pursue vocational andintellectual interests in their spare time.5.get through: come successfully to the endExamples: The local government has taken some measures to ensure that all the people will get throughthe winter.She got through the entrance examination and was accepted by the college.3College English Integrated CourseBook Three Unit One 全新版大学英语综合教程第三册6.at that point: at that very moment, right thenExamples: The train was now only a couple of yards from the kids on the track.

Text A in this unit is a good case inpoint. Readers need some basic knowledge of Christianity. Some terms in this text are markedly Christian, like “Methodist Minister ”, “Bible“Quaker”. Others refer to characters or places fromBiblical stories, such as Moses who led the Jewish people out of slavery in Egypt, or Bethlehem, a holy city for Christian.The author tells three stories about the Underground Railroad and the early Black civil rights movement. The three stories are chosen because they are representative of all participants in this movement: John Parker is a freed slave who later turned into a courageous “conductor ”; Levi Coffin is a brave white“conductor ”; Josiah Hensonis a slave who struggled his way to freedom with the help of the Underground Railroad.We learn about the name of Josiah Henson at the beginning of the text, yet his full story is not told until the last part. In this way the author achieves coherence of text.Direct speech is more convincing than indirect speech, especially when it comes to expressing personal beliefs. For example, the text quotes Levi Coffin s aying “The Bible, in bidding us to feed the hungryand clothe the naked, said nothing about color. ”On other occasion, direct speech makes a story more vivid. For example, in the John Parker story, characters spoke short sentences to stress the urgency of the situation. For another example, Josiah Henson threw himself to the ground and shouted to astonished onlookers: “Oh, no! Don't you know? I 'm free! ” His joy affects us all.Cultural Notes1. Freedom and rights: Freedom of the individual is considered one of theessential features of westerncivilization, which is itself sometimes called the Free World. This freedom is often expressed in terms ofrights to do certain things or to be treated in a particularly way. When a person does something that othersthink strange, British and American people will often say, “it 's a free country. ” Meaning that althoughthey disagree with the choice they recognize the other person 's right to make it.Americans sometimes call the US the “land of the freed ” , a phras e taken from it national anthem.British people have always strongly defended their freedom. Fear that they will lose the freedom to decidetheir won future is behind many people 's lack of enthusiasm for European unity.In Britain and the US the most basic rights include freedom of expression(=freedom to say or writeanything), freedom of choice (=freedom to make decisions about your own life) and freedom of worship(=freedom to practice any religion).2.The civil rights movement: (in the US) the national campaign byAfrican-Americans for equal rights,especially in the 1950s and 1960s. the campaign included boycotts( =refusal to buy particular products).The actions of freedom riders, and in 1963 a march to Washington led by Martin Luther King. Itsucceeded in causing the introduction of bussing and affirmative action. The Civil Rights Act of 1965were also introduced as a result of the civil rights movement, which has helped to change the attitudes ofmany white American.3.the Civil Rights Act of 1964: the US law that forced the southern states to allow African-Americans toenter restaurants, hotels, etc. which had been reserved for whitepeople only and to end the practice ofhaving separate areas for black and white people in theatres, train stations, buses, etc. the act was mostlythe result of civil rights movement and was strongly supported by President Lyndon Johnson. It wasfollowed the next year by the Voting Rights Act.4.Uncle Tom 's Cabin: a novel (1852) by the US writer Harrie t Beecher Stowe which increased support forthe movement to free slaves. It is about a kind slave called Tom whois badly treated and finally killed bySimon Legree. Tom ' s daughter Little Eva also dies, and another well-known character in the novel is theslave child Topsy. The name Uncle Tom is sometimes used as andinsult to describe an African-Americanwho has too much respect for white people.5.the Underground Railroad: a secret system used in the US beforethe Civil War for helping thousands of7College English Integrated CourseBook Three Unit Two 南昌大学教务处全新版大学英语综合教程第三册slaves to escape to the free northern states or Canada. The slaveswere called “passengers ”, the people who helped them were“conductors ”, and the slaves hid in “stations ” ( safe houses) alongthe way.5.Slavery: Slavery played a particularly important role in the history of the US.The first slaves were taken to North America from Africa by theDutch in 1619. By the time of the American Revolution (1775) there were 500,000 slaves, mostly in the South. After the Revolution the northern states made slavery illegal but the South needed cheap labor for the cotton plantations. Gradually the South 's economy became dependent on slaves and by 1860, the year before the Civil War, there wereabout 4 million slaves.Conflict between the North and the South increased, and it becameclear that supporters and opponents of slavery could not continue to bepart of the same country. In 1861 the slave states left the US and formed their own government. This was the beginning of the Civil.After the North won the Civil War and brought the southern states back into the US, slavery was ended. But little changed for former slaves. Some moved to the North but there were not enough jobs there and many suffered prejudice from Whites. Those that stayed in the South often worked on the plantations where they had been slaves. They were paid for their work, but had to buy food and clothes. Many had to stay there trying to pay off debts which became larger each year. nd6. Bill Clinton (1946- ): the 42 US President, elected in 1992 and 1996. He is a Democrat and was previously the governor of Arkansas. The US economy improved under Clinton, and the North American Free Trade Agreement has been signed. His successes in helping to achieve world peace include the Camp David Agreement for the Near East and the Dayton Agreement to end the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina. His wife Hillary (1947- ) tried without success to improve the US health system. In 1998 President Clinton admitted that he had had a sexual relationship with Monical Lewinsky, a junior member of the Whit House staff, after denying it earlier. He was impeached for lying under oath and obstructing justice, but the senate judged him not guilty.7.

You may wantto write dow n some key words in the space provided before you do so. (Para. 6) 1 What made the author so mad about her husba nd that they bega n to fight over childcare duties?The fact that he wasn ' t tak ing on half of the childcare duties, and he thought it was more important to spend time on his work than on his daughter, and his expectation that his mother would do all the housework he was supposed to do.(Para. 8) 2 How did her mother-i n-law explai n her role in the family?Her mother-in-law explained that her role in the family was to lighten the burde n of her son, allow ing him to keep his former way of life, and to help her daughter- in-law out with pare nti ng and household man ageme nt.(Para. 9) 3 What did the author think of her mother-in-aw ' s explanation?She thought it was absolutely un acceptable, because, in her view, her husband is one of two parents, and therefore their daughter should be half his responsibility; and she married her husband, not her mother-in-law.(Para. 13) 4 How come her husband, unlike the author, failed to adopt daily habits around the schedule of their daughter?He obviously believed that mothers are the primary caregiver of childre n and this was the no rmal differe nee betwee n mothers and fathers.(Para. 16) 5 How did the author react whe n she was told that, now that her mother-in-law helped her out by taking care of her daughter, it was her resp on sibility to take care of her mother-i n-law whe n she was old?She totally rejected the idea, because she thought what her mother-in-law did was fulfillingthe parenting responsibility of her husband, therefore it was her husband ' s responsibility to take care of his own mother when she was old. 2.2 Un dersta nding difficult senten cesTips in this part :1.

Text An alysisThe author ' r eflections on childcare are skilfully framed between the con versati ons with other wives that ope n and close the text. The ope ning sets the scene and introduces her husband and herself. Next comes her mother-in-law, whose strong senseof duty is expressed in a shift to short, emphatic senten ces:“ Her role isclear. She has to be here. ”What follows is part factual account, part persuasive argument. The author does not simply give a neutral description of the differences between her husba nd and herself. She clearly wishes to persuade us that she is right and he is wrong. As a con seque nceher writ ing contains much in com mon with other pieces of persuasive writing. There are therhetorical questions : “lam expected …but he is relieved of his fatherly duties …?” “ Why does he getout of the datasks …?T here is the emotive Ianguage. She is "incensed a f what she sees as hisStep Two(步骤二)“ laz in ess ” ; he “ was n' t honouring ” his role as a father.Towards the end she admits that he has made an effort to compromise, though eve n here she is quick to add “ in resp onse to my growli ngwith the impression of an uneasy truce rather than a meeting of minds.Step Three (步骤三)II.
