新视野大学英语第三版电子教案Book3unit5当工作是一种乐趣的时候9第1部分9理解和学习概述本单元的主题是工作——个人生活中不可或缺的一部分。

工作可能服务于不同的目的，对不同的人有不同的意义。

正文A认为，通过区分工作、劳动和娱乐，对工作的兴趣和享受对个人和社会都是重要的。

课文B，通过给我们讲一个鞋匠和作者的故事，激发了关于建立一种自豪、自尊和负责任的工作传统的思考。

所有这些要素，如两个文本所示，都不能在仅仅为了钱而做的工作中实现。

关于写作风格，文本A主要是通过对比来发展的，对比被有效地用来逐点突出工人和工人之间的差异。

文本B通过使用第一人称“我”的叙述方式，通过细致的描写和生动的对话，给读者一种身临其境的强烈感觉，达到了极其生动的效果。

为了让学生更好地理解单元主题，培养良好的工作态度，老师应该鼓励发人深省的讨论和活动。

讨论的主题可能包括我们为什么工作，我们如何培养对工作的热爱，我们如何在工作中获得快乐等等。

可能的活动包括同伴访谈、复述课文、问卷调查，以衡量特定职业的快乐程度，并找出如何在工作中获得更大的快乐。

你是工人还是劳工？背景信息1继续教育继续教育是指成人教育，通常在晚上上课，特别是与工作相关的科目。

2体验式学习体验式学习是从直接经验中创造意义的过程。

它是通过对做的反思来学习，这是由死记硬背来控制的。

19919体验式学习的例子是去动物园，通过观察和与动物园环境的互动来学习，而不是从书中阅读关于动物的内容。

因此，一个人用第一手知识进行发现和实验，而不是听或读别人的经历。

在一个严格意义上的奴隶制已经被废除的社会中，围绕工作的社会条件、工作的价值和工资，已经使许多劳动者沦为现代奴隶——“雇佣奴隶”。

(第106段)。

1)含义:在一个严格意义上已经结束奴隶制的社会里，工作的社会地位，工作的价值和工资，何说，中国政府将继续贯彻“一国两制”的方针。

监考老师警告学生不要在考试中作弊，以免他们侮辱自己。

注这里的“工资奴隶”是指那些仅仅为了赚取工资而工作的人。

Unit 5 Course：College EnglishSection A Graceful HandsI. Warm-up Activity1. Topic Discussioni. Student’s Discussion1) What is life usually understood to be?―short and suffering, very long and full of happiness…2) Have you ever touched the problem of the relationship between life anddeath? Describe it.―yes or no…ii.Teacher’s SummaryThere are almost as many ways to view life as there are human lives. This statement may seem exaggerated, but life is at least invested with the meanings as follows:1) Life is a becoming, a flowing on without pity. Our parents live on throughus, and we will live on through our children.2) Life is a long but enjoyable journey as long as you are ready to overcomeobstacles in your way.3) Life is short and suffering.4) Life is an accumulation of treasures – a truth you find out, a skill you prideyourself on, an experience you get insight from, a friendship you make firm and long …By living, we do not mean merely enjoying the pleasures each day offers or laboring for wealth. Rather, we mean living each day as if it is the only one you have.2. Questions on the Topic and the Passage1) Why was the word “graceful” used to describe the grandmother?―The grandmother well deserves the word ―graceful‖. What is graceful in heris not only her hands, but her fine and considerate character as well. At thetime of her passing, she sent her families away in order that they would notsuffer the grief-stricken moment by watching their beloved part with themforever. This act is enough to reveal the grandmother’s kindness and lovefor her family members in her life time. Therefore, the word ―graceful‖ is inplace to describe the grandmother’s heart and mind.2) What does the physician find out and what does she learn?―By staying with the patient in her last moment, the physician finds out thatthe patient’s heart and mind are as truly graceful as her hands. The patienthas sent her family away to spare them the grief and pain of seeing her passaway. In these special last moments between these two human beings thedoctor learns what being graceful really is.3) What does the writer want to show by using such words as large head,skeleton body, dark yellow skin and exaggerated bones to describe Mrs.Clark?―The writer wants to show us a true-to-life picture of Mrs. Clark at the end ofher life.4)What does the writer mean by saying that both she and Mrs. Clarkbecome aware that this is a special moment between two humanbeings?―She means that they both realize that Mrs. Clark is dying and as humanbeings this is an unavoidable and very special moment.5)If you were given this decision to assist in your family member’s death,what are the challenges you might face?―Truly speaking, nobody wants to be faced with this situation, even thoughwe all know that death is the law of nature.If I were put in the situation to assist in my family member’s death, the challenges I might face lie in two aspects. One is psychological. I can’timagine how I can watch the person I love most leave me forever, while Ican do nothing about it. I will suffer the most profound guilt of myhelplessness. Another one is physical, for I might be afraid of makingcontacts with him/her.This is just what occurs to my mind. Maybe, in reality, I’ll conquer thesechallenges.II. Background Information1. A medical eye: Medicine, like science, is concerned with objectivity-the cool, calculating, reason-based observation of facts. The writer describes herself as having a ―medical eye‖, by which she means she watches patients without any personal emotions as a doctor.2. Newspaper reports of death: The writer reads about the death of Mrs. Clark in the newspaper. This is because every newspaper contains a section devoted to recent deaths. This section is called the ―obituary section‖, or simply, the ―obituaries‖. Obituary entries often contain a single, small photo of the deceased, accompanied by a short article about the person’s life.III．An analysis of the whole text structureIn narrative, it is common to write according to a chronological order—listingevents according to time sequence.The first part consists of four paragraphs, from paragraph 1 to paragraph 4, telling us something about the writer and the patients. The descriptions are presented in a chronological order. First the writer tells us that she has never seen the patient before and she learns from the medical report that the patient will die that night. Then the writer describes what she sees and feels on entering the room in paragraph 2.From paragraph3 to 4, the writer gives a detailed description about the patient’s conditions.The second part has only one paragraph, paragraph 5, which is arranged according to the time sequence too, though without any time markers. We can understand the time sequence from our knowledge of the real world: after the writer examines the patient, she does something for the patient as a medical worker. Through her service to the patient, the writer creates a dominant impression on readers that the patient is seriously ill, too weak for anything.The third part is made up of two paragraphs, paragraph6-7. Here we have the real exchange between the two human beings. It is also the first time that the writer mentions that the patient’s graceful hands catch her attention.The fourth part is paragraph 8. The patient dies. And the writer seems to have a better understanding of the patient. Mr. Clark spares her family from seeing her die and the writer feels it a privilege to be there with the patient.The fifth part is paragraph 9. It is only two days after Mrs. Clark’s death that the writer comes to learn more about her from the newspaper.The last part is paragraph 10. Though only one line, the paragraph leaves readers much space for further thoughts.IV. Language pointsPassage ALanguage Point 1The only light in her room is coming from a piece of medical equipment, which is flashing its red light as if in warning. (Para. 2)Meaning: The red light on a piece of medical equipment is shining off and on, as if it is making a warning. This is the only light in the room.Language Point 2 I reach for the light switch, and as it silently lights the scene, I return to the bed to observe the patient with an unemotional, medical eye. (Para. 2) Meaning: I stretch out my hand to turn on the light, and as the light quietly lights the room, I return to the bed to watch the patient without any personal emotions as a professional doctor does.Language Point 3 She is too weak for conversation, so without asking, I go about providing for her needs. (Para. 5)Meaning: As she is too weak to talk, I begin to provide for her needs without being asked.Language Point 4Naked, except for a light hospital gown, she is so very small and light that she seems like a victim of some terrible famine. (Para. 5)Meaning: She wears nothing except for a light hospital gown, and she is very small and light as if she has suffered from a terrible famine for quite a long time. Language Point 5Carefully, to avoid injuring her, I rub cream into her yellow skin, which rolls freely over the bones, feeling perfectly the outline of each bone in the back. (Para. 5)Meaning: I take care and try not to hurt her while I rub cream into her yellow skin. The loose skin rolls freely over the bones, and I can feel perfectly the outline of each bone in the back.Language Point 6Placing a pillow between her legs, I notice that these too are ice-cold, and not until I run my hand up over her knees do I feel any of the life-giving warmth of blood. (Para. 5) Meaning: When I put a pillow between her legs, I find that her legs too are cold as ice, and it is only when I move my hand up over her knees that I feel the warmth of blood that gives life.Language Point 7As though she is a mind reader, Mrs. Clark answers my thoughts... (Para. 6) Meaning: As if she is able to know what I'm thinking, Mrs. Clark replies to my doubts...Language Point 8In the total silence, I feel my own pulse quicken and hear my breathing as it begins to match hers, breath for uneven breath. (Para. 7)Meaning: In the complete silence, I feel my own pulse beat faster and hear my breathing as it begins to correspond to her irregular breath.Language Point 9There is a swell of emotion within me for this stranger who so quickly came into and went from my life. (Para. 8)Meaning: A strong feeling grows in me for this stranger who so quickly came into and went out of my life.Language Point 10Her suffering is done, yet so is the life. (Para. 8)Meaning: Her suffering is over, but her life is over, too.Language Point 11Mrs. Clark spared her family an episode that perhaps they were not equipped to handle and instead shared it with me. (Para. 8)Meaning: Mrs. Clark prevented her family from suffering an event which perhaps they were not prepared to deal with. She shared it with me instead.V.

新视野大学英语第三版电子教案Book 3unit 5Unit 5 When work is a pleasurePART 1Understanding and Learning Overview This unit centers on the topic of work-an indispensable part of individual lives. Work may serve different purposes and have different meanings to different people. Text A argues, by differentiating among work,labor,and play,that interest and enjoyment in work are important for the benefit of both individuals and society. Text B, by telling us a story of a shoemaker and the author, stimulates thoughts on building a tradition of working with pride, self-esteem, and responsibility. All of these elements, as shown in both texts, cannot be achieved in a job that is done merely for the sake of money.Concerning the writing style, Text A is developed mainly by means of contrasts, which are effectively used to highlight, point by point, the differences between workers and laborers. Text B, by means of narration through the use of the first person“I”andwith detailed description and lively conversations,givesthereaders a strong feeling of beingpersonally on the scene,and achieves the effect of great vividness.In order for students to get a strong understanding ofthe unit theme and foster a good attitude toward work,the teacher should encourage thought-provoking discussions and activities. The topics for the discussions may includewhy we work, how we can foster love for work, how we achieve happiness at work, are peer interviews,retellingof Text B, questionnaire survey to gauge thehappiness level of a specific occupation and towork out how to achieve greater happiness at work.Section A Will you be a worker or a laborBackground information1 continuing educationContinuing education refers to the education for adults, usually in classes that are held in the evening and especially on subjects that are related to their jobs.2 experiential learningExperiential learning is the process of making meaning from direct experience.

Unit 5 book 3 -3rd Unit 5 When work is a pleasureSection A Will you be a worker or a laborer?In modern society, the nature of work is rapidly changing. Most people work hard, but two people in very similar jobs may have very different experiences. One may enjoy his work while the other may find the work difficult and tiring. What do you think creates such a striking difference in job satisfaction? Find the answer from the texts. By the end of this unit you are expected to make a report on the following topic: Happiness at workLead -in: 1) short answer questions:1.

After all, most people want to enjoy themselves rather than have plenty of money without a sense of achievement and happiness.On the other hand, some people may choose a well-paid job instead of a job close to their hearts to earn more money. If one is in serious financial difficulty, one can hardly afford the luxury of a dream job.Pre-reading activities: A job-related surveyYou will find 10 typical job characteristics below, which may or may not be important to you when you choose your future job or career. Read the statements and write down the number that represents your opinion.

But for me, the following three factors affect my choice most. First, the job must fit my personality. I believe that certain occupations are more suitable for particular personality types than others. If the job really fits my personality, I will be more likely to be successful and enjoy working.Second, how much the job pays. It is understandable that if I want to live an adequate life, I need to make enough money to support that kind of life. Finally, the location of the office building is also an important factor in choosing a career for m e. I don’t like a job located far away from my home, because it requires extra commute time and will surely reduce the time with my family.Try to translate this letter of resignation into English.1) What did she mean in this letter?She probably meant that she would take time to truly feel thebeauty of life and the world.2) Why do you think she quitted her job?The reasons of her resignation vary. It can be caused byexcessive workload, unfair treatment or her desire forfreedom.Background InformationContinuing EducationContinuing education (similar to further education in the UnitedKingdom and Ireland) is an all- encompassing term within abroad list of post-secondary learning activities and programs. The term is used mainly in the United States and parts of Canada. Recognized forms of post-secondary learning activities within the domain include: degree credit courses by non-traditional students, non-degree career training, workforce training, formal personal enrichment courses (both on-campus and online), self-directed learning (such as through Internet interest groups, clubs or personal research activities) andexperiential learning as applied to problem solving.Experiential LearningExperiential learning is theprocess of making meaning from direct experience. It is learning through reflection on doing, which is often contrasted with rote learning(死记硬背). Experiential learning focuses on the learning process for the individual. An example of experiential learning is going to the zoo and learning through observation and interaction with the zoo environment, as opposed to reading about animals from a book. Thus, one makes discoveries and experiments with knowledge firsthand, instead of hearing or reading about others’ experiences.DiscussionHow does technology change people’s work and life?Since the dawn of time, humans have developed tools and technology to assist in the pursuit of their goals. Large shifts in technology have resulted in large shifts in social structures, and in how individuals both contribute to society and make a living. Today, advances in technology are rapidly making it possible to automate much of the work currently carried out by humans. This applies not only to blue-collar jobs through robotics and the Internet of Things, but also towhite-collar work through artificial intelligence. The wide applicability of these technologies has led to broad concern about thedestruction of jobs. Indeed, according to a 2014 Oxford study, 47% of jobs in the US could be replaced by automated processes in the next two decades. Of course, while technology has always removed the need for some types of jobs, as many havenoticed, it also creates new ones. Nine of the top ten most in-demand jobs in the latest years did not exist in 2003, suggesting that the latest technological revolution is creating new employment opportunities.On the other hand, people are working harder and are more enslaved to their work than before. More people are seen walking around with laptops or smartphones. They’re becoming slaves to high technology. So it’s not high-tech, but kind of high-shackles or high-manacles. Unfortunately, there’s no escape.How can you foster love for your work?In general, it is hard to foster love for your work, especially if you get bored with your work or if you do not feel appreciated. So if you find it hard to love what you do, there are several ways for you to develop a more positive attitude towards work. With time and effort, you may start to find that you are looking forward to work rather than dreading it.Step 1: Change the way you work. When work becomes mundane, it can feel more difficult to face. In these situations, it might be helpful to change your approach. This is sometimes called job enrichment.Step 2: Focus on the positive aspects of your job. If you are not enjoying your job, you usually tend to focus your mind on all of the negative aspects of it. To reverse the trend, you need to identify what you like about your job and start focusing on those positive aspects instead.Step 3: Practice gratitude. If you have negative thoughts about going to work each day, try keeping a list of the things that you are grateful for. Practicing gratitude can help you to feel happier overall and may also help you see your job in a more positive light.Step 4: Look at the big picture. Sometimes work may become a chore if little things start to bother you more than they should. If you find yourself focusing on minor issues at work, such as a rudecustomer or making a mistake, remind yourself that these are not important in the grand scheme of things.Step 5: Improve other parts of your life. Sometimes a job can be more difficult to engage with when other parts of your life are out of balance. Consider other aspects of your life that might be making you unhappy.New words:degrade [dɪˈɡreɪd] v. to show or treat sb in a way that makes them seem not worth any respect 降低…身份;侮辱…的人格;使受屈辱;(使)退化，降解;分解;降低，削弱(尤指质量)A dishonest action like that will degrade you.像这样不诚实的行为会使你降低身份。

Unit 1 Text A Never, ever give up!Ⅰ. Background Information1. public schoolIn the UK (with the exception of Scotland), the term public school refers to a group of older, more expensive and exclusive fee-paying private schools, which cater primarily for children aged between 13 and 18. It is independent of the state system in regard to endowment and administration. The typical great public school such as Eton, Harrow, and Winchester evolved from an institution founded by a single benefactor during the late European Middle Ages or the Renaissance. The curriculum from the beginning placed heavy emphasis on the Greek and Roman classics and continued to do so until well into the 20th century.In the US, public schools generally refer to elementary or secondary schools, offered to all children by the government and paid for, in whole or in part, by public funding from taxation. The term may also refer to institutions of post-secondary education funded, in whole or in part, and overseen by the government.2. Stanford Law SchoolIt is a graduate school at Stanford University. It was established in 1893 and is regularly ranked among the top three law schools in the United States, along with Harvard Law School and Yale Law School.3. Winston ChurchillSir Winston Churchill (1874-1965) grew up as the son of a British noble. He attended a private school from age seven, and entered Harrow in 1888. He was not impressed with his education. Later he entered Sandhurst Royal Military College in 1893, after three attempts to pass the entrance test. He joined the army in 1895.He was a British Conservative politician and statesman known for his leadership of the United Kingdom during World War II. Widely regarded as one of the greatest wartime leaders of the 20th century, he served as prime minister twice (1940-1945 and 1951-1955). A noted statesman and orator, Churchill was also an officer in the British Army, a historian, a writer, and an artist. He is the only British prime minister to have received the Nobel Prize for Literature (in 1953), and was the first person to be made an Honorary Citizen of the United States.4. Albert EinsteinAlbert Einstein (1879-1955), born to a Jewish family in Germany, grew up in Munich and moved to Italy in 1894. As a boy, he was said to be slow in learning to talk, but later in his childhood he showed great curiosity about nature and a likewise great ability to solve difficult mathematical problems. After he left school, he went to Switzerland, where he graduated from university with a degree in mathematics. In 1905, Einstein published a series of papers which shook the whole scientific and intellectual world. For the theories he established in his papers, he won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921. Among the important discoveries Einstein made in his life, the greatest is the creation of his famous Theory of Relativity. He was considered the greatest scientist of the 20th century and one of the greatest of all time. His discoveries and theories have greatly influenced science in many fields.5. Thomas EdisonThomas Edison (1847-1931) was an American inventor, scientist and businessman. Edison had very little formal education as a child, attending school only for a few months. He was taught reading, writing, and arithmetic by his mother, but he was always a very curious child and taught himself much by reading on his own. This belief in self-improvement remained throughout his life.He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and a long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. He was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large teamworkto the process of invention, and therefore is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. He is credited with numerous inventions that contributed to mass communication and, in particular, telecommunications. Edison originated the concept and implementation of electric-power generation and distribution to homes, businesses, and factories — a crucial development in the modern industrialized world.6. Sandra Day O'ConnorSandra Day O'Connor (1930- ,) is an American jurist who was the first female member of the Supreme Court of the United States. She served as an Associate Justice from 1981 until her retirement from the Court in 2006.She was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor of the US in 2009.7. StanfordCommonly referred to as Stanford University or Stanford, it is an American private research university located in Stanford, California. Stanford is a founding member of the Association of American Universities, and one of the world's leading research and teaching institutions. Its academic reputation, alumni, influence, and wealth have made it one of the most prestigious universities in the world.Ⅱ.New Words1. preclude vt. (fml.) prevent sth. or make sth. impossible 阻碍；阻止；妨碍Better options may come along later, and taking the first option will preclude them from being free for the later and better ones. 后面可能会出现更好的选择，选了第一个他们就无法自由选择后面更好的了。
