In my parents? words, the difference between their childhood and mine is as vast as that between heaven and earth.When my parents were young, there was no TV, no computers nor any other electronic appliances in their home. Their food was simple and their clothing plain. What is unbelievable to young people today is that they seldom dined out in a restaurant, or traveled to a scenic spot for a holiday.In contrast to family life one generation ago, each family in China today has at least one TV set and many have been equipped with telephones, computers, even cars. While the senior members of a family watch films on TV at home, the younger members like to play computer games or talk to their friends who may live thousands of miles from them.The changes in Chinese family life mirror the economic development of our country. Without the prosperity of the whole country, our family life would probably be just the same as before. Times have changed, and changed, most would surely agree with me, for the better.

Abraham, Martin John DionHas anybody here,Seen my old friend Abraham, Can you tell me, where he's gone, He freed a lotta people,But it seems the good die young, I just loohed around, And he's gone, Has anybody here,Seen my old friend John,Can you tell me, where he's gone, He freed a lotta people,But it seems the good die young, I just loohed around, And he' s gone, Has anybody here,Seen my old friend Martin,Can you tell me, where he's gone, He freed a lotta people,But it seems the good die young, I just looked around, And he's gone,Didn't you love the things they stood for,Didn't they try to find some good for you and me, And we'll he free,Someday soon it's gonna be one day, Has anybody here,Seen my old friend Bothy,Can you tell me, where he's gone,I thought I saw him walhin' up over the hill, With Ahrah am, Martin and John.The unit we are going to study is all about civil-rights heroes. The song you have just heard is about four of them. Can you guess who they are? All are American. All are dead, all, as the song says, \people. That's one clue. Another comes when she quotes the proverb: \young.\young. My guess is Dion has in mind Abraham Lincoln, the American president who freed the slaves and was assassi?nated. How about John, another leader who helped people to free themselves? He too died young. Can you guess who it might be? President John F. Kennedy seems most likely. He too supported civil rights. He too died young, assassinated like Lincoln.4Now who could Martin be? Another civil-rights leader who died young, once again assassi?nated. A great speaker comes to mind. Who do you think? Martin Luther King, surely. And finally, Bobby. Bobby who? Probably Dion is thinking of Bobby Kennedy, John Kennedy's brother, another supporter of civil rights. He was running for president when, like his brother before him, he too was gunned down.Part II Text A Text Organization 1.Parts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1-5 It is high time to honor the heroes who helped liberate slaves by forging the Underground Railroad in the early civil-rights struggles in America.Part Two Paras 6-23 By citing examples the author praises the exploits of civil-rights heroes who helped slaves travel the Un?derground Railroad to freedom.2.

And in this sense,a working holiday could be a life-changing experience.•You are more likely to meet and make friends with the locals,not just other tourists.They can introduce you to a new culture.•A working holiday makes a good break.A popular time to sign up for a working holiday is the break between high school and college or the break after college and before entering the real working world.Transcript:A working holiday is when you spend a significant amount of time in another country and have the working rights to back it up.You are able to pick up a job or two(or6)and break that arrangement up by traveling or moving on to a new location in the country.In general,a working holiday visa grants you access to a country for a longer period of time than a standard tourist visa.In Australia,for example,the typical tourist visa is for3months while a working holiday visa is for12months.With a working holiday visa,you can work as you go,meaning you won’t necessarily go into debt while spending time abroad.Your method of travel may vary.Some prefer to travelup-front for several months and then spend the rest of the time working in one or two differentlocations.Others prefer to work for a month,travel for a month and then work for a month again. Either way,the travel is sustainable in the sense that you can keep refilling your travel funds with employment.With a working holiday visa,you are basically given the opportunity to test out any type of job,and you are probably put in a position to accept ones that you normally wouldn’t when at home.You never know what you might discover.A working holiday,in this sense,could end up being a life-changing experience.Moreover,by taking up employment in a country abroad,you are more likely to meet and make friends with the locals,not just other tourists,and that can do wonders for really introducing you to a new culture.A working holiday also makes a good break.A popular time to sign up for a working holiday is that break between high school and college or the break after college and before entering the real working ter working holiday experiences are often used by individuals as a way to explore the new and unknown.Taking part in a working holiday is a great idea to

In my parents' words, the difference between their childhood and mine is as vast as that between heaven and earth.When my parents were young, there was no TV, no computers nor any other electronic appliances in their home. Their food was simple and their clothing plain. What is unbelievable to young people today is that they seldom dined out in a restaurant, or traveled to a scenic spot for a holiday.In contrast to family life one generation ago, each family in China today has at least one TV set and many have been equipped with telephones, computers, even cars. While the senior members of a family watch films on TV at home, the younger members like to play computer games or talk to their friends who may live thousands of miles from them.The changes in Chinese family life mirror the economic development of our country. Without the prosperity of the whole country, our family life would probably be just the same as before. Times have changed, and changed, most would surely agree with me, for the better.Unit Two Civil Rights HeroesPart II Text A THE FREEDOM GIVERSText Organization1.Part One Paras 1-5It is high time to honor the heroes who helped liberate slaves by forging the Underground Railroad in the early civil-rights struggles in America.Part Two Paras 6-23By citing examples the author praises the exploits of civil-rights heroes who helped slaves travel the Un­derground Railroad to freedom.2.

Shortly after he achieved freedom he became a member of an organization that assisted fugitive slaves. He secretly returned to the United States from Canada several times to help others to travel the Underground Railroad to freedom. Once some slave catchers closed in on the escaping slaves and Henson when they were on the run. He disguised them and successfully avoided capture. In addition, later he built a small settlement in Dresden in Canada for escaped slaves, setting up a chapel and a school where they could learn useful ways of making a living. He held to the conviction that slavery would be abolished, all the slaves would be liberated, and the day was bound to come when racial discrimination no longer existed.Part III Text BComprehension Check 1. a 2. d 3. c 4. d 5. b 6. bLanguage Practice1. remarkable2. commitment3. flourish4. resulted from5. grave6.

In this contextPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksModel paperThe Civil-Rights Movement in the U.S.Black Africans were first brought as slaves to what was to become the United States in the seventeenth century. Slavery was strongest in the South, where large plantations grew cotton, tobacco, and other crops. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, a growing demand for cotton led to an increase in the demand for slaves in the region. Slavery was less profitable in the North, however, and much of the opposition to slavery came from the northern states. The tension between the North and the South over the issue of slavery led to the Civil War in 1861.With the victory of the North, slavery was abolished. Discrimination, however, did not end. Black Americans were treated as second class citizens, especially in the South. Dissatisfaction with unfair treatment eventually led to the civil rights protests of the 1950s and 1960s that brought about government action aimed at reducing discrimination.As a result, African Americans have come a long way in the last fifty years, but they still find themselves at a disadvantage in comparison with Americans of European descent. Only 17 per cent of the black population are able to finish higher education, in contrast to 28 per cent of whites. Incomes for the average white family were just over $44,000 in 1999. For an average black family, however, the figure was in the region of $25,000. Not one of the chief executive officers of the top 500 companies is black.Anyway, the civil-rights movement in the U.S. still has a long way to go.Unit Three SecurityText A THE LAND OF THE LOCKText Organization1. 1) Doors are not left unlocked either in cities or in rural areas.

TranslationA burglary is reported every 15 seconds in the United States. Statistics show burglars en­tered more than 2 million homes last year. Actually it is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out. All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus exposing him to police patrols or those wandering around. Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity. A light should be fixed in the doorway and switched on at night. Believe it or not, some people, particularly children who happen to be the last to come in, leave their doors on the latch at night. Doors of hollow core, even when locked, are vulnerable to break-ins. Thus doors of solid core or steel are much preferred as they make it difficult for the burglar to pry open. If you decide to buy analarm device, be sure to ask for its signs and put them up on both windows and doors. Finally, a word of warning—when you travel, make sure that you have a trusted neighbor collect and keep all the deliveries of newspapers and mail until you return. This is because a collection of newspapers and mail on the front doorstep or in your mailbox is an advertisement that no one is home.

The gun is the great equalizer. It does not matter whether you are a big tough man or a small frail woman. With a gun in your hand you stand at the same height.What's more, it is the foundation of our nation. Without it there would be no Republic as it is, for we would never have been able to drive the Indians off the land without shooting so many of them down. Nor would the West have been won. Who would have dared venture into lands unpro­tected by the law if they had not been able to protect themselves with a gun? The spirit of our nation thrives on aggressive individuals who are ready to stand up for themselves and to fight for their rights. Look at our films. What do we enjoy watching? People shooting one another. True, children occasionally get hold of guns and slaughter their classmates. But if only their classmates had been properly armed, they could have fought back. It was gun control that left them defenceless.。
