Unit1 The Dinner Party 晚宴那个美国人没有参加这场争论，他只是注视着在座的其他客人。

在他这样观察时，他发现女主人的脸上显出一种奇异的表情。

她两眼盯着正前方，脸部肌肉在微微抽搐。

她向站在座椅后面的印度男仆做了个手势，对他耳语了几句。

男仆两眼睁得大大的，迅速地离开了餐室。

在座的客人中除了那位美国人以外谁也没注意到这一幕，也没有看到那个男仆把一碗牛奶放在紧靠门边的走廊上。

那个美国人突然醒悟过来。

在印度，碗中的牛奶只有一个意思——引蛇的诱饵。

他意识到餐室里一定有条眼镜蛇。

Unit2 Lessons from Jefferson 杰斐逊的遗训杰斐逊的勇气和理想主义是以知识为基础的。

他懂得的东西也许比同时代的任何人都要多。

在农业、考古学和医学方面他都是专家。

在人们普遍采用农作物轮作和土壤保持的做法之前一个世纪，他就这样做了。

他还发明了一种比当时任何一种都好的耕犁。

他影响了整个美国的建筑业，他还不断地制造出各种机械装置，使日常生活中需要做的许多工作变得更加容易。

在杰斐逊的众多才能中，有一种是最主要的：他首先是一位优秀的、不知疲倦的作家。

目前正在第一次出版的他的全集将超过五十卷。

他作为一个作家的才能很快便被发现了，所以，当1776年在费城要撰写《独立宣言》的时刻来到时，这一任务便落在了他肩上。

数以百万计的人们读到他写的下列词句都激动不已：“我们认为这些真理是不言而喻的：一切人生来就是平等的……”Unit3 My First Job 我的第一份工作在我等着进大学期间，我在一份地方报纸上看到一则广告，说是在离我住处大约十英里的伦敦某郊区，有所学校要招聘一名教师。

我因为手头很拮据，同时也想做点有用的事，于是便提出了申请，但在提出申请的同时我也担心，自己一无学位，二无教学经验，得到这份工作的可能性是微乎其微的。

然而，三天之后，却来了一封信，叫我到克罗伊登去面试。

这一路去那儿原来还真麻烦：先乘火车到克罗伊顿车站，再乘十分钟的公共汽车，然后还要至少步行四分之一英里。

Unit10 Profits of PraiseAre we too quick to blame and slow to praise? It seems we are.It was the end of my exhausting first day as waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had gone awry, my apron was stained, my feet ached. The loaded trays I carried felt heavier and heavier. Weary and discouraged, I didn't seem able to do anything right. As I made out a complicated check for a family with several children who had changed their ice-cream order a dozen times, I was ready to quit.Then the father smiled at me as he handed me my tip. "Well done," he said. "You've lookeddo you ever tell you laundry manager how pleased you are when the shirts are done just right? Do you ever praise your paper boy for getting the paper to you on time 365 days a year?Praise is particularly appreciated by those doing routine jobs: gas-station attendants, waitresses - even housewives. Do you ever go into a house and say, "What a tidy room"? Hardly anybody does. That's why housework is considered such a dreary grind. Comment is often made about activities which are relatively easy and satisfying, like arranging flowers; but not about jobs which are hard and dirty, like scrubbing floors. Shakespeare said, "Our praises are ourwages." Since so often praise is the only wage a housewife receives, surely she of all people should get her measure.Mothers know instinctively that for children an ounce of praise is worth a pound of scolding. Still, we're not always as perceptive as we might be about applying the rule. One day I was criticizing my children for squabbling. "Can you never play peacefully?" I shouted. Susanna looked at me quizzically. "Of course we can," she said. "But you don't notice us when we do."Teachers agree about the value of praise. One teacher writes that instead of drowning students' compositions in critical red ink, the teacher will get far more constructive results by finding one or two things which have been done better than last time, and commenting赞扬的好处珍妮特?格雷厄姆我在纽约一家生意繁忙的餐馆做女侍的第一天，令人精疲力竭的第一天，就要结束了。

词义修辞格（LexicalRhetoricalDevices）所谓修辞是指依据题旨情境恰当地选择语言手段和表达方式, 以有效地表情达意。

修辞的目的是使作品更加形象生动、引人入胜。

了解英语中的修辞, 有助于我们更好地理解、欣赏文章,也有助于在写作中丰富我们自己的表达。

英语修辞格按其构成大致可以分为三类:(一)词义修辞格(Lexical Rhetorical Devices)词义修辞格主要是指借助语义的联想和语言的变化等特点创造出来的修辞手法。

大学英语中常见的词义修辞格有以下几种:1.Simile 明喻与汉语的明喻基本相同,是以两种具有相同特征的事物和现象进行对比,表明本体和喻体之间的相似关系。

常用来表示明喻的喻词有like, as, as if, as though等。

如:Learning is like rowing upstream; not to advance is to drop back. 学如逆水行舟,不进则退。

“How like the winter hath my absence been” or “So are you to my thoughts as food to life” (Shakespeare). 如“我的离开好象是冬天来临”或“你对我的思想就象食物对于生命一样重要”（莎士比亚）My love's like a red, red rose. 我的爱人像一朵红红的玫瑰花。

The man can't be trusted. He is as slippery as an eel. 那个人不可信赖。

他像鳗鱼一样狡猾。

He jumped as if he had been stung.他像被蜇了似的跳了起来。

Childhood is like a swiftly passing dream. 童年就像一场疾逝的梦。

2. Metaphor 暗喻暗喻也是一种比喻, 但不用比喻词, 因此被称为"缩减了的明喻(a compressed simile)"。

To my Sweetheart: 0.0 加油次奥~！By J(二) 选词第一：1.The host of dinner party was disappointed at the small number of guests who attended少数嘉宾出席晚宴的主人感到失望。

2.Shouts of protest sprang out form the angry crowd3.Mang people have the bad habit of spending money on impulse4.All I can remember when I came to is my mother’s anxious face我只记得当我醒来时我母亲焦虑的脸。

5.By careful examination ，the doctors hope to track down the source of the infection6.The attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7,1941 was a(an) unexpected event which brought America into world war 2发生在1941年12月7日的珍珠港偷袭是使美国卷入第二次世界大战的一个意外事件。

7.The coat fits the boy perfectly now，but he will outgrow it in a year’s time这件外套完美地适合这男孩,但他会在一年的时间后穿不了了。

8.The man’s eyes widened with fear when he saw the robber’s gun当男人看见强盗用的枪，他的瞳孔扩大充满恐惧。

9.He resumed his regular working hours shortly after he came out ofhospital他出院后不久他就重新开始了正常的工作10.New problems emerge when old ones are solved当旧的问题都解决了新问题出现了。

UNIT 10 Profits Of PraiseTeaching Aims:Shed new light on the positive effect of praise that not only brings joy into other people’s lives, but also, very often, added happiness into our own.1)remember that “ praise produces far better results than criticism”.2)get rid of the habit that “ready to criticize but reluctant to praise”.3)develop the habit that “be alert to the small excellencies around us”.Teaching Content:1. Words: alert, apply, appreciate, comment, constructive, convey, critical, criticize,discourage, dozen, drown, earn, load, reluctant, routine, scold, somehow,profit, quit2. Phrases & Expressions: make out, only too, no much of a, fish out, shrug off,pass on, live on3. Grammar: instead of, it is that…I. Background Information1. TipA tip is a small gift of money for service, usually in addition to payment due.Originally, it was used to insure prompt service or to speed service. But nowadays, it is a common practice for most American and European hotels and restaurants to add a service charge of about 10% to 20% to their bills, and many guests feel impelled to tip above this. On the other hand, many waiters and waitresses depend largely on tips for their livelihood.2. Behavior and behavioral sciencesBehavior is anything that a living creature does. With human beings the word often refers to acts that other persons can observe if they happen to be present. Actually, all responses and ways of acting are behavior. These include a person’s thoughts, emotions, feelings, needs, and the responses of his muscles and glands.Behavioral sciences deal with the subject of human actions, especially those actions that develop out of interpersonal relations, usually including the fields of sociology, social and cultural anthropology, education and psychology.3. William ShakespeareWilliam Shakespeare (1564-1616) was an English playwright and poet, recognized in much of the world as the greatest of all dramatists.His style: His plays communicate a profound knowledge of the sources of human behavior, revealed through portrayals of a wide variety of characters. His use of poetry within hisplays to express the deepest levels of human motivation in various situations isconsidered one of the greatest accomplishments in literary history.His famous plays: Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado About Nothing, A Midsummer Night’s Dream The Merchant of Venice, Hamlet, Macbeth4. Mark TwainMark Twain (1835-1910) is the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens, a great American writer and humorist.His style: His best work is characterized by broad, often irreverent humor or biting social satire.Twain’s writing is also known for realism of place and language, memorable characters,and hatred of hypocrisy（伪善）and oppression（压迫）.His famous work: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885)The book is the story of the title character, known as Huck, a boy who flees hisfather by rafting down the Mississippi River with a runaway slave, Jim.II. Warm-up Questions and Oral PracticePre-reading questions:1.Are you often praised by your parents or friends or teachers? How do you feel when you arepraised?2.Are you often criticized by your teachers or scolded by your parents? If so, how do you feel?3.Which do you think is more profitable for the growth and development of a young student,praised or criticism? Or do you think they are equally profitable? Give your reasons.Post-reading questions:1.How did she feel towards the family with several children at first?2.Cite an example to show that one word of praise can earn you friends throughout the world.3.how will composition teachers get better results?4.What have behavioral scientists tried to prove with regard to human reactions to praise andcriticism?5.What does it cost the giver to give praise?III. Text Structure Analysis1.Outline of the textsPart I. (Para.1-4) The author give us an example to illustrate that praise is like sunlight to the human spirit.Question: 1.How exhausted did the author feel after the first as waitress in a busy New York restaurant?2. What did the father give the author and say ?Part II. (Para. 5--6) Body paragraphs: when one word can bring such pleasure?Question: 1. Why did the friend earn many friends all over the world even thought they didn’t share a language?2.why are we chary about praising?Part III. (Para. 7--10) Body paragraphs: when one word can bring such pleasure?Question: Why did the author say rewarding to give praise in areas in which effort generally goes unnoticed?Part IV. (Para. 11-12) scientists made an experiment. :Question: 1. What was the experiment about?2．How did the scientists do ?3. What results were it?Part V. (Para.13-14) ConclusionQuestion: What suggestions did the author give us?2.Summary of the textWell-meaning and to-the-point criticism has long been valued above praise even if the praise is sincere. We often hear it said that the proof of true love is to be unsparing in criticism.However, the author of the article argues from her personal experience, and the experiences of many other people, that there is magic in a word of praise and that praise will bring about more profits than criticism.IV. Language Points1.profitn. advantage or good obtained from sth.; money gained in businessYour mother did that for your profitWhat’s the profit of doing that thing?Unlike nonprofit organizations, we do everything for a profit.They made a lot profits by selling illegal disks. 他们出售非法光碟，大量获利。
