Unit 5Part BText 1AshleyAshley was reading a magazine when she came across an article about antibiotics and other drugs discovered in European rivers and tap water. If such drugs were present there, she reasoned, they might also be found near her home in West Virginia.Ashley feared that antibiotics in the waters could lead to resistant bacteria, or supergerms, which can kill untold numbers of people.The girl, then 16, began testing her area's river -- the Ohio. With a simple device she herself had designed, she collected 350 water samples from the Ohio and its tributaries over ten weeks. Reading scientific journals, she taught herself to analyze the samples. It was the most scientifically sound project for someone her age.Her experiment, one of the first of its kind in the United States, showed that low levels of three antibiotics are indeed present in local waters. Ashley's study won the International Stockholm Junior Water Prize, a virtual Nobel Prize for teenagers. She received a $5,000 scholarship and an audience with Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria.Her interest in science was sparked by walks in the woods with her mother. But it was the day-to-day stuff -- how water comes to the tap, how rain sticks to glass, that most fascinated her. "Science is not a dead thing," she says. "It's happening all around us."By the sixth grade, she was winning at science fairs. She has won $70,000 in prize money, which she has put aside for college. She plans to attend Harvard University. "I want to make my own discoveries, and not just read about what others have done," she said. Her teachers predict that she will one day win a Nobel Prize.Statements:1. Ashley lives in the state of Virginia.2. Antibiotics in streams and rivers can lead to the emergence of supergerms.3.

Ashley's experiment proved that antibiotics did exist in the Ohio River.6. Ashley developed a strong interest in science when she was in her sixth grade.7. Ashley wants to make discoveries by herself and knows how to make use of what she has read.8. The International Stockholm Junior Water Prize is a Nobel Prize for teenagers.9. Ashley got a $5,000 scholarship from Harvard University.10. Ashley can be regarded as a role model for young people.Text 2Young People Say No to SmokingOn February 16, 2001, the teens from a youth group called REBEL launched their advertising campaign at the Liberty Science Center in New Jersey. By now just about everybody has heard the "Not for Sale" commercial on television and the radio against tobacco companies. What many people don't know is that teenagers from West New York and across New Jersey worked on various aspects of the campaign, and even appeared in some of the advertisements. The campaign organizer thought it would be better than using actors if actual REBEL members were in the commercials.REBEL, which stands for Reaching Everybody by Exposing Lies, is a statewide youth initiative against tobacco companies. The movement, which began in November last year, carries the message that teens no longer want to be targeted by tobacco companies in their advertisements. Knowing that peer pressure on teens to smoke or do drugs is one of the biggest problems that teens face, the group is working hard to ensure that their message reaches all teenagers at New Jersey schools.When the group was first formed, there were only five members, all eighth grade students. But by this summer the group had grown to close to 90 members. At a recent recruiting party, a pizza and pool party, at the West New York swimming pool, more than 50 new members were attracted to the group."We don't think that too many people would be interested," said Jackie, one of its founding members. "But everyone knows our message. They know who we are now."Questions:1. When did REBEL launch their advertising campaign?2. How many members did REBEL have by the summer of 2001?3. Who are the members of REBEL?4. What did REBEL do for their campaign against tobacco companies?5. What did REBEL do recently?Part CSkatescootersIn Hong Kong these days, you will often see people riding skatescooters in the streets. Depending on which way you look at them, they can be great for performing tricks or are just the latest fashionable commodity. Fung is one of the more experienced skatescooter riders, as he has been practising his technique for about a year. His curly hair and baggy jeans show his devotion to street fashion and being comfortable. He has a deep passion for and understanding of this sport."I started riding skatescooter a year ago, but at that time there was no one to share the experience with or learn new tricks from," he explained. "Now that it has caught on and more people take part in it, it is more enjoyable."Most of the best brands of skatescooters are made in Switzerland and began to be importedRoger: And if you decide she should wait, she can get a job, take classes at a community college or do an internship to get experience. She may be just one of those who need to see a bit of real life before they settle down.Questions:1. What is Jenny worried about?2. What is Jenny's daughter interested in?3. What does Roger recommend Jenny do with her daughter now?4. Which of the following is not a suggestion given by Roger?5. What can you infer about the relationship between Roger and Jenny?重点单词及词组Part Bcame across 偶遇antibiotic 抗生的resistant 抵抗的，有抵抗的bacteria 细菌fascinate 使着迷put aside 撇开commercial 商业的statewide 遍及全州的recruiting 征募亲兵,复原initiative 主动Part Ctrick 诡计，欺骗commodity 日用品regard as 把…看作executive 执行者Part Dtuition 学费scholarship 奖学金be wrapped up in 被包藏于settle down 定居pay attention to 注意。
全新版大学英语综合教程3Unit5Unit 5Passage A# Detailed Reading##1. Difficult Sentences1. I stared at the words in the distressed way you might stare at party guests whose faces you’ve seen somewhere before but whose names have escaped your mind .(Para .9 , L .1)我看着这些词, 一筹莫展。
这就像参加晚会时, 盯着那些似曾相识的脸孔, 可怎么也想不起名字一样。
2.. He looked conf used, a reminder that clever’s not clever if it doesn’t communicate.He looked confused, and his puzzled look reminded me that my answer was not clever at all because it couldn’t be understood.他一脸的迷惑，这是在提醒我，如果不能使对方明白，这词儿就不能算用得聪明。
3.Just not right now, now when it mattered, now when the fate ofa curious, intelligent immigrant hung on the answers he assumed would fall from a native speaker’s tongue as naturally as leaves from an October tree.I couldn’t say the answer right now, because this answer was so important that the fate of this curious and intelligent Pakistani driver kind of relied on it. I couldn’t tell the answer precisely, though he supposed it would be so natural for me to give him an answer as a native speaker, as natural as leaves falling from an October tree.这我可以回答，但不是在此时。
Unit 5 The New Parent Trap每年，我们许多人把我们的婚姻更美好生活的一页。
我们这样做了充满希望，走出了一条美国乐观：它会比这更好。
通常，它是。
我们都知道的人谁给不幸的婚姻，找到自己或其他合作伙伴甚至更幸福。
但是，我们不喜欢看离婚的后果。
这部分是太痛苦了。
每过一段时间，尽管在表面的文化的东西，抓住我们的衣领。
我1977年的小说，克莱默主场迎战克莱默，和奥斯卡奖获奖影片，就是这样改编，似乎这样做的人，带回家影响家庭生活的困扰的离婚。
这个题目也审议辩论）的书，几年前在罚款（和非常意外的遗产，离婚由朱学沃勒斯坦，朱莉娅路易斯和桑德拉布莱克斯利米。
总的来说，虽然离婚是不是真的在我们的雷达屏幕上。
或多或少恰好今天在美国生活。
我们翻开新的一页。
我们继续前进。
几年以前，在一个大学的社会学课程，我记得得知在结束第一次婚姻的离婚数字是百分之二十五的工作。
今天，来自美国人口普查局中常用的数字是百分之五十。
对于国家卫生统计中心，略带采取更有利的物质（和稍微不同的方法），说百分之43。
无论哪种方式，这些数字是惊人的。
大约1亿到大约1亿离婚下的孩子成为离婚的18岁以下儿童每年转换。
奇怪的是，有没有危机感的民族。
即使是离婚语言已经消毒。
请记住这个词“破碎的家庭，”这意味着损害？这几乎已经消失的文化。
在我的新小说，一个完美的离婚，好心的父母对一个十几岁的男孩-出于美国的乐观和否定好位-认为他们可以管理一个智能离婚，并保持相对的儿子为他们的痛苦。
但是，在他大学一年级，汤米伯罗斯失去他的去路。
他掉出来，从工作到工作反弹。
他的情感过山车乘坐会影响所有两岸人民的生命- 他的朋友，祖父母，雇主。
汤米的父母，罗布和Karen，就像谁相信，如果你对你的孩子爱，分手就比较顺利的许多其他问题。
在我看来，这是伟大的美国神话的完美离婚。
拉里沙利文，纽约心理医生，已经工作了30年以上的已婚夫妇，单身，离婚夫妇和离婚的孩子。
“当然是有一个神话的土地，”他说。

Unit 5 How to Celebrate HolidaysSuggested T eaching Plan (5 periods)Objectives:Students will be able to:1.understand the main idea and the structure of the text;2. learn to memorize words in association;3. grasp 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 Allotment1st period 2nd period 3rd period 4th period 5th periodPre-reading; While-reading (text organization, vocabulary prediction, Part I) While-reading(Parts I – III)While-reading;Post-reading(association map)Post-reading;Check onstudents’ homereading (Text B)Theme-RelatedLanguageLearning Tasks)Pre-reading tasks1. T asks Ss the following questions on the song:---- According to the singer, why are people busy coming and going on holiday? (They want to go back to their hometown.)---- In what way is Thanksgiving similar to our Spring Festival? (Both are occasions to families to get together.) (5 minutes)2. Group discussion: who should I thank for what1) T dictates to Ss the following questions:---- What should I thank my parent(s) /teacher(s) / friend(s) for?---- Have I expressed my gratitude to the person(s)?---- If the answer to the previous question is yes, what have you done? If the answer is no, what do you plan to do?---- Are holidays a good time to express gratitude? Which holidays are the most appropriate?2) Ss form group to discuss them.3) Some groups report discussion results to class. (15 minutes)3. T leads in to the text by saying: Do you remember a text in Book 1, All the Cabbie Had Was a Letter? Quite often we take for granted the people who are nice to us, then we realize all too late that we have never expressed our appreciation, just like the cab driver. At other times, when we are away from the holiday rush, we are able to recall the true significance of a holiday – a time to say how much we value others. The author of this text did exactly that. (2 minutes)While-reading task1. T draws Ss attention to Text Organization Exercise 1, to see how the text is divided into four parts. T asks Ss to give the main idea of each part. (5 minutes)2. T tells Ss that the story took place on a ship. Ss take out a sheet of paper and write down any vocabulary items they can think of that are related to a boat or to people onboard T will explain that this list is for future reference (see T ext Analysis). (8 minutes)3. T explains key language points in Part I and gives Ss practice (see Language Study). (20 minutes)4. Student pairs discuss why it was necessary for the author to offer so many details of his voyage. (possible answer: Details indicate that this Thanksgiving was unusual, explaining why the author felt the need to celebrate it in an unusual way.) (4 minutes)5.T explains key language points in Part II and gives Ss practice (see Language Study). (20 minutes)6. Ss complete part of Text Organization Exercise 2. (8 minutes)7. T explains key language points in Part III and gives Ss practice (see Language Study).(20 minutes)8. Ss complete the rest of Text Organization Exercise 2. (8 minutes)9. T explains key language points in Part IV and gives Ss practice (see Language Study).

T asks Ss to prepare for the next unit:1) do the pre-reading task;2) preview Text A. (2 minutes)T ext AnalysisWe all want to expand our English vocabulary. An effective and efficient way is to memorize English words and phrases through association maps. Experiments have proved that it is much easier for human beings to memorize things in meaningful groups than isolated items.Fi rst of all, we put a central idea or a key word in the middle of the map, e.g. “ship”.Then we draw a cobweb structure around “ship”. One branch may be the names of different parts of a boat, like “hold”, “cabin”, “afterdeck”, “deck”. Another branch may be the various types of people on board the ship, like “coastguardsmen”, “sailor”, “seaman”, “shipmate”. Still another branch may be verbal phrases related to a ship, like “put to sea”, “be under way”, “be at sea”.This cobweb can keep on growing. Every once in a while we redraw it, and we may find that it has grown in size, because we are better at association and our word power is stronger.Of course, there are other methods of improving vocabulary memorization. For example, when you see a new vocabular y item, you’d better read it aloud, pronounce it correctly, and spell it on a sheet of paper. By using eyes, mouth, ears, and hands together, we mobilize multiple parts of our brain, thus keeping a longer memory.。
