LESSON 9A Life Without Limits人生不設限ReadingImagine going through life without the ability to walk, take care of your daily needs, or even hug someone you love. Nick Vujicic was born in 1982 in Melbourne, Australia. Because of a rare genetic disorder, he had no arms or legs, which made him the target of bullying at school. “People were looking at me, laughing at me, calling me names. And obviously I couldn’t do a lot of the things that everyone else was doing,” he once recalled in a speech. He felt sorry for himself and even thought about ending his life.A key turning point in Nick’s life came when his mother showed him a newspaper article about how a man overcame his physical disability and became successful. After he found he wasn’t alone in his struggle, Nick learned to accept his lack of limbs. His parents’ constant encouragement and advice was another source of strength. To them, Nick was “perfectly imperfect.” “You may lack limbs, but don’t let that define what you can or can’t do,” said Nick’s father. With his strong religious faith, Nick became determined to live his life with a positive attitude. He learned to swim, comb his hair, brush his teeth, and answer the phone, among many other everyday tasks.However, deep in his heart, Nick often wondered about the purpose of life. There was a janitor in his high school, Mr. Arnold, who suggested that he tell his life story to others. He finally persuaded Nick to share his story in a small discussion group. Nick was nervous and he talked for ten minutes about what it was like to grow up without arms and legs. At the end, everyone was moved to tears. It just blew his mind that his stories could inspire change in others by giving them hope to handle life’s difficulties. From then on, Nick’s life purpose began to become clear. He decided to be a motivational speaker to inspire lost souls around the world.Today this energetic young speaker has achieved more than most people do in a lifetime. So far, he has traveled to more than sixty countries to deliver his message of hope. He is an author, musician, and actor, and his hobbies include fishing, painting andskydiving. He has even realized a dream he once didn’t dare to have. He has found his true love and started his own family, with two lovely children. Now, Nick runs a non-profit ministry, Life Without Limbs as well as an organization called Attitude is Altitude, which arranges his motivational speeches and campaigns against bullying. With his passion and love of people, Nick Vujicic has proved that even without limbs, a person can still stand tall and live without limits.課文中譯想像一下一輩子無法走路、無法打理日常所需、甚至無法擁抱你愛的人，會是什麼樣子？力克•胡哲在1982 年生於澳洲墨爾本。

L1 P14 Why does the author tell s not to be afraid to ask stupid questions？The author thinks that many apparently naive inquiries like why grass is green，or why the sn is round，or why we need 55，000 unclear weapons in the world ——are really deep questions. He says when you try to get the answers，you will gain deep understanding of the things. Its also important to know，as well as you can，what it is that you dont know，and asking questions is the way. He also tell us to ask stupid questions requires courage on the part of the asker and knowledge and patience on the part of the answers. And dont confine your learning to schoolwork. Discuss ideas in depth with friends. Its much brave to ask questions even when theres a prospect of ridicule than to suppress your questions and become deadened to the world around you.L2 Icons P30 What are the factors to shift the hero-worship to the lebrity-worship？The new forms of media——photography，moving pictures，radio and television are the main factors. The reproduction of photos in newspapers turned famous people into celebrities whose dress，appearance，and personal habits were widely commented upon. Slowly，the focus of public attention began to shift away from knowing what such people did to knowing what looked like. The shift was accelerated by the arrival of moving pictures. Between 1901 and 1914，74 percent of the magazine articles about famous people were about political leaders，inventors，inventors，professionals，and businessmen. After 1922，however，most articles were about movie stars. With the arrival of television，the faces of the stars became as familiar as those we saw across the breakfast table. We came to know more about the lives of the celebrities than we did about most of the people we know personally. Less than seventy years after the appearance of the first movimg pictures，the shift from hero-worship to celebrity-worship was complete.L3 GO-GO AMERICAN P46 What is the Americans attitude towards time？Give necessary examples. In the United States，many people keenly feel the shortness of each lifetime. They are aware that once a day in their life is gone，it will never come back. And Americans believe no one stands still .If you are not moving ahead，you are falling behind. So they value time and want every minte to count. This attitde towards time is shown in the fast pace of life in the country. Whatever they do they always seem to be in a rush. You find people hurrying to get where they are going. They hurry to eating places for a mea and finish it as quickly as possible. Also Americans do what they can to save time. They produce a lot of labour-saving devices such as clothes-and dish-washers；they rapidly communicate through phone calls，telex and e-mail and cut down on personal contacts.L4 Take Over，Bosn！P62 Can you imagine what did Barret think of when he heard Snyders whisper Take over，bosn？Becase of thirst，Barret was almost out of mind. He rose several times and was a constant threat. But when he heard Snyder said“Take over，bosn，he had a strange feeling suddenly. He came to realize he would and must take over the task and be responsible for the rest. As long as he stopped others from the little water，they would always have hopes and wouldnt die soon. So he picked Snyders gun up and decided to hold off the other from the water until night when a ship saved them.L5 Are You Giving Your Kids Too Much？P78 Why parents overindulge their children？There are several reasons to explain why parents overindulge their children. One fairly common reason is that parents overindulge their chidren out of a sense of guilt. Parents who both hold down full-time jops may feel guilty about the amount of time they spend away from their children and may attempt to compensate by showering them with material possessions. Other parents overindulge because they want their children to have everything they had while growing up，along with those things the parents yearned for but didnt get. Still others are afraid to say no to their childrens denless requests for toys for fear that their children will feel unloved or will be ridiculed if thy dont have the same playthings their friends have.L6 Culture Shock P94 What are four stages that people go through when they experience situations that are very different from those to which they are accustomed？Stage one is a honeymoon phase，during which the new experience is perceived to be interesting，picturesque，entertaining，and charming. You may notice several superficial differences such as music，food，and clothing，and the fresh apeal of the new experience keeps you feeling interested and positive. When you stay in a new envirnment for a while，you move to stage two-the crisis stage-in which the shine wears off and day-to-day realities sink in. In relationship，you notie annoying habits；in a new country，you find barriers to establishing connections or to learning the language beyond a few polite phrases. If you stick with theexperience and try to deal with it realistically，you will probably move to the third phase：recovery. In recovery，you learn the systems，procedures，language or nonverbal behaviors of the new environment so that you can cope with it on the basis of some mastery，competence，and comfort. Finally，when you feel that you function well and almost automatically in the new culture，you will move to the fourth phase：adjustment.L7 The Model Millionaire（I）P108 Suppose you are the millionaire.Explain how you get to know Hughie Erskine and what you do in return for the pound he gave you when you first met. I am Baron Hausberg. I have enough money to buy the whole of London. One day，on a whim I asked my artist friend Alan Trevor to pain me as a beggar. Alan had almost finished the picture when a very charming young man walked into his studio.I suppose he must have been very sympathetic with me，for when Alan was away a minute，the young man quickly put a pound into my hat. I was startled for a moment，but I was pleased when I realized that he took me for a real begger. Later I learned from Alan all about this young man：he was poor，and could not marry the girl he loved because her father wouldnt let them unless he had 10，000 pounds.Touched by the young mans spirit of kindness，I decided to help him. The next day I had a cheque for 10，000 pounds delivered to him as a wedding gift.L8 The Model Millionaire（II）P123 Retell the story The Model Millionaire in about 150 words，concluding your retelling with a one-sentence comment. Hughie Erskine was a charming young man who was in love with a nice girl called Laura uras father made it clear to Hughie that he would not marry his daughter to him until Hughie had ten thousand pounds. One day，Hughie went to see his artist friend Alan Trevor in his studio. There he found his friend painting a beggar，who was an old man in rags.Hughie felt so sorry for the poor model that he gave him the only pound he had. The old model was actually a millionaire.When he heard all about Hughie and Laura，and their problem，he had a cheque for ten thousand pounds delivered to him the very next day.The couple were happily married，and the beggar attended their wedding. The story shows that a genuine millionaire is not one who has，but who give.L9 Only Three More Days P139 The author got a solution finally. What was the solution？Was it risky？He laid out the diaries in two big steel suitcases. Over them he palced a number of his broadcast scripts，each page of which had been stamped by the military and civilian censors as passed for broadcast. On top he put a few General Staff maps he had picked up from friends. Then he phoned the Gestapo Headquarters to say he had a couple of suicases full of his dispatches，broadcasts and notes that he wanted to take out of the country. As he was flying off early the next day，there would be no time for Gestapo official at the airfield to go over the contents. Could they take a look now，if he brought them over；and if they approved，put a Gestapo seal on the suitcases so he wouldnt be held up at the airport？Yes，it was risky. He thought life in the Third Reich had always been risky. It was worth a tryL10 The Washwoman P155 Describe the situation that“I”saw the old washwoman for last time. One evening，while Mother was sitting near the oil lamp mending a shirt，the door opened and a small puff of steam，followed by a gigantic bag，entered the room. I ran toward the old woman and helped her unload her bag. She was even thinner now，more bent. Her head shook from side to side as though she were saying no. She could not utter a clear word，but mumbled something with her sunken mouth and pale lips. After the old woman had recovered somewhat，she told us that she had been ill badly. But as soon as she was able to stand on her feet once more，she began her washing. She said “I could not rest easy in my bed because of the wash. The wash would not let me die.……I dont want to be a burden on anyone！”L11 How I Served My Apprenticeship 170 Why was Andrew Carnegie so pround of the one dollor and twenty cents——the first pay he brought home？Carnegie was very pround of the one dollar and twenty cents he earned for the first time in his life when he was only twelve. The money，though small in amount，meant a great deal. First，when he got his first pay he felt that he had grown up. He was no longer a boy who had to depend on his parents；he had become a man who was able to help support the family，a contributing member. This was important because at that time life was hard for the family and it was difficult for his parents to manage alone. Also he though the money was the direct reward of honest manual labor. It represented a week of very hard work. This money gave him the greatest satisfaction of being rewarded for what he had done.L12 A Friend of the Environment P185 Why did Rachel Carson write the Silent Spring？Whats the content of it？Because she felt that the wonders of Nature are precious and permanent，and much of Nature was forever beyond the destruction of man. But then she discovered she was wrong. She learned with sadness that little in Nature is truly beyond the tampering reach of man. Then，She wrote the book Silent Spring to sound a startling warming to mankind and the book showed quite clearly that man was endangering himself and everything else on this planet by his indiscriminate use of chemical pesticides. As her title suggests，Miss Carson was saying that there might come a springtime that would indeed be silent because the birds，as well as other creatures，and plants would have been destroyed by the man-made poisons used to kill crop-threateding insects.L13 Who Shall Dwell？P201 In the story Who shall Dwell？，how did the fatners attitude towards the neighbours change？What brought about the change？When the bomb alert came，the father was clear that he had built the shelter for his own family，and that he would not let anybody else in. So when his neighbours came and asked to share the shelter he rejected them flatly. When a monther begged him to take her little girl in ，he did not know what to do. At that monent his wife dashed outside and pushed the girl in. her act set him thinking hard. Just a moment before the first bomb struck he made a big decision. After giving his elder son a few instructions，he stepped out and shoved two children into the shelter. He stood beside his wife，ready to spend the last minute with her. His change seemed sudden，but was actually quite natural. He loved his children，so he was greatly affected by the monthers plea and gave the chance of surival to the two children. Also his love for his wife led him to follow her example.L14 Cipher in the Snow P218 Describe Cliff Evans life before his sudden death. Cliff Evans lived with his mother，stepfather and five younger half brothers and sisters. His stepfather had never legally adopted him，nor did he show any affection for him. At home Cliff didnt talk much and had never told his family about his problems. When he began school，he was timid but eager to learn. And his IQ was pretty good. Then in the third grade a teacher wrote in the school record that he was uncooperative and slow. Since then he had never got any encouragement from his teachers. Gradually，the child had no more confidence left. He never smiled nor talked much. He had no friends；he had never belonged to a club，never played on a team and never held an office. He came to school by himself and left by himself. In class，he would sit back in the last seat. Finally he became silent and lonely. He became nothing.L15 Bribery——An Inevitable Evil？P232 What are the major forms of bribery？Bribery can be classified into three broad categories. The first category consisits of large amounts of money paid for political purposes or to secre major contracts. For example， a certain American company offered big sums of money to support a U.S. presidential candidate when it was nder investigation. Also in order to get big contracts，such payments are often made to ruling families or their close advisers. The second category covers payments made to obtain quicker official approval of some project. In such cases，the money is often paid to key goverment officials concerned. The third category involves payments made in certain countries to make a business deal easy to get approved. For instance， a foreign company may pay to get permission to import equipment. A common type of this category is the facilitating payment to clear cargoes. These are smaller sums of money paid to customs officials.L16 A Social Event P250 What do you know about Randy and Carle in A Social Even？Why are they anxious to get invited to Scottys funeral？Randy and Carole are a young Hollywood couple. They have been married only a short time. Both have achieved a certain degree of success in pictures，but their careers in the show business are still in the promising stage. Scotty Woodrow， a world-famous movie star has just died，and Randy and Carole are anxious to go to his funeral，which will be a gathering of celebrities and is regarded as a big social event. It is said that flowers have come from the U.S. President and the British Queen. Randy and Carole think it is extremely important for their career to be seen there with a lot of big shots. But they havet got an invitation while some of their Hollywood friends，also young actors and actresses like themselves，have been invited. Thats why they are worried and are trying hard to find ways of getting themselves invited in the last minute.。

部编版九年级上册语文第19课《谈创造性思维》课文原文及教案.课文不过，也许有人会选择图形C。

因为非对称性图形只有C一个，所以会被认为与其他图形不同。

确实如此，这也是正确答案。

答A也是可以的。

因为A是没有角的图形，所以A也是正确答案。

那么，D 又怎样呢?这是一个由直线与曲线构成的图形，因此D也是正确答案。

换句话说，由于看图形的角度不同，四种答案全都正确。

'正确答案只有一个'这种思维模式，在我们头脑中已不知不觉地根深蒂固。

事实上，若是某种数学问题的话，说正确答案只有一个是对的。

麻烦的是，生活中大部分事物并不像某种数学问题那样。

生活中解决问题的方法并非只有一个，而是多种多样。

由于情况的变化，原来行之有效的方法，到了现在往往不灵了。

正因为如此，如果你认为正确答案只有一个的话，当你找到某个答案以后，就会止步不前。

因此，不满足于一个答案，不放弃探求，这一点非常重要。

然而，寻求第二种答案，或是解决问题的其他路径和新的方法，有赖于创造性的思维。

那么，创造性的思维又有哪些必需的要素呢?有人是这样回答的:'富有创造性的人总是孜孜不倦地汲取知识，使自己学识渊博。

从古代史到现代技术，从数学到插花，不精通各种知识就一事无成。

因为这些知识随时都可能进行组合，形成新的创意。

这种情况可能出现在六分钟之后，也可能在六个月之后，六年之后。

但当事人坚信它一定会出现。

'我对此完全赞同。

知识是形成新创意的素材。

但这并不是说，光凭知识就能拥有创造性。

发挥创造力的真正关键，在于如何运用知识。

创造性的思维，必须有探求新事物，并为此而活用知识的态度和意识，在此基础上，持之以恒地进行各种尝试。

这方面的典型代表，首推约翰·古登贝尔克。

他将原来毫不相关的两种机械--葡萄压榨机和硬币打制器组合起来，开发了一种新机械。

因为葡萄压榨机用来从葡萄中榨出汁，所以它在大面积上均等加力。

而硬币打制器的功能则是在金币之类的小平面上打出印花来。
