It is extremely important for a job applicant to do his homework while seeking employment. From my standpoint, whether or not one has done his homework clearly makes a difference in his chance of success.I have a friend who is earning somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,000 dollars a year in a large computer software company. He told me that from his own experience the decision makers who interview prospective employees like people who are well prepared. Those who make no endeavor to learn as much about his prospective employer as possible don't have much of a chance of success.Unit 4VocabularyI.1) advantageous 2) let alone3) witnessing/vanishing 4) landmark5) entitled 6) displace7) Establishment 8) patriotic/strengthen9) contradictions 10) aspires11) divorced 12) pendulums2. 1) come to 2) dozed off3) believed in 4) was set apart5) take in 6) sucks in7) clean up 8) turn awayI.

For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs. And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important. At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy. The internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere. They follow the latest tre nd and copy foreign fashions. Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Unit 5VocabularyI1) In a way 2) in accordance with3) vacancy 4) in good condition 5) transparent 6) rub 7) spicy 8) hitherto9) with (a) bad grace 10) instinct 11) pawned 12) current2.1) turned up 2) will stick to 3) brought back 4)go about5) driving at 6) put away 7) turning over 8) took aback Comprehensive exercisesCloze1.1). insane 2)current 3). candid 4). capable 5). was taken aback 6). in good condition 7). constitution 8). go all to pieces 9). Gone broke 10). vacancy 11). mild 12). deceptive Translation2.For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive. For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton. In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel. He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death. Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit 7 TextAVocabulary:I1) 1. divined 2. nerves 3. solidarity 4. sacred; mourn5. coated6. perish7. hijack8. grief9. farewell10. take revenge on 11. revolves 12. denounced2) 1. drop… off 2. applied for 3. went off4. are gaining on5. bring down6. blotted out7. think back on 8. picking atComprehensive Exercises:Cloze1) Text-related1. mood2. tragic3. in the (immediate) aftermath of4. chaos5. toppling6. solidarity7. take revenge on8. thinking back on 9. mourning 10. perishedTranslation2):Today, long after the earthquake shook / hit my h ometown, I can still recall, in crystal detail, what I saw as I ran out of my home with my parents. The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of choking dust blotted out the sun. Horror-stricken people ran in all directions, crying and screaming.Now, many years after that tragic event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the old one. In the town square, a memorial has been build to remember those killed in the disaster. It seems the wounds in people’s hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.。
Unit 1无名英雄:职业父亲意味着什么?在我们的孪生女儿出生后的第一次“约会”时,我和丈夫一起去看了一部名为《玩具故事》的电影。
我们很喜欢这部片子,但随后我丈夫问道:“父亲在哪儿呢?”起初我还认为因为一个小小的失误而批评一部很吸引人的家庭影片似乎是太偏狭了。
可后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。
父亲不仅没有出现,他甚至没有被提到——尽管家中有婴儿,说明他不可能离开太长时间。
影片给人的感觉是,父亲出现与否似乎是个极次要的细节,甚至不需要做任何解释。
新闻媒体倾向于把父亲的边缘化,这只是一个例子,它反映了在美国发生的巨大的社会变化。
大卫?布兰肯霍恩在《无父之国》一书中将这种倾向称之为“无需父亲”观念。
职业母亲(我想这应是与无职业母亲相对而言的)奋斗的故事从媒体上无尽无休地轰击着我们。
与此同时,媒体上绝大多数有关父亲的故事又集中表现暴力的丈夫或没出息的父亲。
看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候(我怀疑这一说法的可靠性,因为“家务”的定义中很少包括打扫屋顶的雨水沟、给汽车换机油或其它一些典型地由男人们做的事),或者是在他们去世的时候。
当布兰肯霍恩先生就“顾家的好男人”一词的词义对父亲们进行调查时,许多父亲都回答这一词语只有在葬礼上听到。
这种“无需父亲”综合症的一个例外是家庭全职父亲所受到的媒体的赞扬。
我并非暗指这些家庭全职父亲作出的承诺不值得人们的支持,我只是想指出在实际生效的双重标准:家庭全职父亲受到人们的赞扬,而家庭全职母亲和养家活口的父亲,所得到文化上的认同却很少,甚至完全得不到。
我们用来讨论父亲角色(即没出息的父亲)的话语本身就显示出人们对大多数男人默默无闻而自豪地履行对家庭承担的责任缺乏赏识。
我们几乎从来没听到“职业父亲”这一说法,在人们呼吁应该考虑给予工作者在工作地点上更大的灵活性时,很少有人认为这种呼吁不但适用于女子,同样也适应于男子。
我们这个社会表现出似乎家庭职责对父亲来说并不象对母亲那么重要——似乎事业上的满足就是男人生活的全部。
四、练习答案Listen and Respond听力原文Living a Frugal LifePeople who live a frugal lifestyle often live with less stress.This is because they know how to take control of their money and,therefore,they have more control over their lives in general.And if you have more control of your life,you are likely to have more peace of mind.With that peace of mind comes what may be called “frugal freedom”,namely,freedom from debt,freedom from envy,freedom from shame,freedom from worry,and freedom from loss of one’s identity.Living a frugal life does not mean having nothing or living poor and cheap. Neither does it mean denying oneself the luxuries of life.A frugal lifestyle simply means that you have the intelligence to live a happy and fulfilling life without possessing a lot.Much of the transition from being extravagant to being frugal is within the mind.For example,before you leave your room,remember to turn off the light;keep all windows and outside doors closed when the air conditioning is on;turn off the tap water immediately after use;when you go shopping,use your brain to save money on certain things for something else you need or want.In short,living a frugal lifestyle means that you don’t have to“keep up with the Joneses”and that you don't have to follow trends and fads.We should always remember that it is easier to spend less than it is to makemore.It is easier to be frugal than to free oneself from financial stress.So,let us be frugal and live within our means.It is a great way of life.Task One1)The passage mainly tells us what is meant by a frugal lifestyle and how to livea frugal life.2)“Frugal freedom”refers to freedom from debt,freedom from envy, freedom from shame,freedom from worry,and freedom from loss of one’s identity.3)Living a frugal life does not mean having nothing or living poor and cheap. Neither does it mean denying oneself the luxuries of life.A frugal lifestyle simply means that you have the intelligence to live a happy and fulfilling life without possessing a lot.Task Two1)luxuries2)intelligence3)transition4)frugal5)conditioning6) tap7)brain8)lifestyle9)financial10)meansText ATask One1.1.1)They wanted a world of their own in which they could enjoy family and social life at the same time,and balance work and spare time.And also,theydidn’t like their previous lifestyle and realized that they could still live a happy life on less money.2)First,they traded two-full time careers for two half-time careers.Second,they decided to spend their money only on things that contributed to their major goal and that did not make wasteful use of the earth's resources.They gave up paper products,processed foods,expensive hobbies,first-run movies, restaurants,and paying for the services of others.Third,they moved to in a handsome,energy-efficient home they designed themselves,which is bright and light and in harmony with its surroundings.And soon they would build a solar greenhouse outside the front door.Fourth,they gave up all the expensive clutter:medicine cabinets full of cosmetics and over-the-counter drugs they would never use;kitchen cabinets crowded with items they would eventually throwaway.Fifth,they exchanged their expenses of work in a commuter age,the extra car.3)They were satisfied with their frugal and simple lifestyle,and felt self-fulfilling.4)It refers to the strong desire to possess more and more material things.5)She appreciated the new lifestyle of the couple;however,she found it difficult to give up their present lifestyle for a simple one.2.Paras.1-5Fed up with their previous wasteful and busy lifestyle,Sara and Michel changed jobs,moved to a small but energy-efficient house and started a simple and environmental-friendly lifestyle.They wanted to build a world of theirown where they could enjoy family life and social life at the same time and balance work and play simultaneously.Paras.6-10In order to“strip down to bare happiness”,Sara and Michel made further adjustment to their lives.They gave up all the expensive clutter and unnecessary electric and electronic appliances;they picked out what was needed and got rid of what was useless or unnecessary;they spent money only on things that contributed to their major goal;and they tried to do things by themselves and devoted more time to the quality of their lives.Paras.11-13The author was deeply affected by the couple’s simple but fulfilling lifestyle.However,she,like most Americans,found it hard to gather the resolve and courage to live a simple lifestyle.Task Two1.According to Sara,living a simple life does not mean people have been deprived of what they really need;it is just because they have fewer desires,just as Sara and her husband.2.The strong desire to possess more and more material things is a part of American culture,and this will exist forever.Thus it is hard for people to give up their consumption habits.3.I failed to resist the temptation of buying the inexpensive towel and the sandals which I did not really need.So I felt lost when I leave the store,because of my impulse buying,as if I were just a child who could not control her desires.4.The world is full of temptation,and going shopping,just like riding a merry-go-round,which goes round and round,has no clear destination.Text BChecking Your Vocabulary1)c2)a3)h4)b5)g6)d7)f8)e2.1)A.(ad.)completely,veryB.(a.)clear;easy to see2)A.(a.)continuing in use or in forceB.(n.)reputation or status3)A.(v.)make(sth.)smallerB.(v.)(of a company)reduce the number of employees in order to reduce costs4)A.(a.)taking careful notice;paying close attentionB.(a.)politely helpful5)A.(n.)a very small amountB.(n.)(in mathematics)a division or part of a whole number3.1)for good2)Looking back3)eat out4)cut out5)write outChecking Your Comprehension1.If I wanted to live a simpler life,the best way for me is to quit my job,andafter that,I had to think positively of what was to happen to my life.2.My husband didn’t care much about our house,so he had little difficulty in adjusting to our new home,but I encountered some problems at first because I used to live in a big house,thus none of my possessions suited the new home which was much smaller than the previous one.3.It occurred to me that if I dealt with small sums of money carefully,I could save a lot of money.ing credit cards makes me careless when paying for the purchase,but when using hard cash,I could control myself and be careful.5.Now we live a simple and frugal life,but we do not deprive ourselves of what we like and enjoy.Enhance Your Language AwarenessWords in ActionWorking with Words and Expressions1.1)furnish2)resolve3)maintaining4)discarded5)sanction6) raise7)strip8)bare9)bargain10)simplified11)trade12)downsize13)numerous14)fraction15)plain16)thereby17)rolling2.1)keeps track of2)it turned out that3)strip down to4)take an interest in。

The largest group, the Han, makes up over 91% of China’s population. As the majority of the population is of the Han ethnic group, the other 55 ethnic groups are customarily referred to as the national minorities. The Han people can be found throughout the country, though mainly on the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the Pearl River valleys, and the Northeast Plain. The national minorities, though fewer in number, are also widely dispersed throughout China, often inhabiting important border regions from northeast China to north, northwest and southwest China. Equality, unity and common prosperity are the fundamental principles of China’s government in handling the relations between different ethnic groups. Meanwhile, China exercises a policy of regional autonomy for various ethnic groups, allowing ethnic groups living in compact communities to establish self-government and direct their ownaffairs.•Unit TestsUnit Test - I1-5: BDADB6-10: CBACA11-15: CBDAD16-20: CDDBCUnit Test - II1-5: BCCBC(6)C. insecure (7)G. compare(8)H. influence (9)J. impact(10)L. post(11)M. surveyed (12)I. negative (13)O. participants(14)D. preoccupation(15)A. establish16-20: DCBDA21-25: CCADAU2•Textbook StudyListening1)habit of living2)profound changes3)human activities4)extinction events5)human agricultural technology 6)domesticating7)cultivate plants8)intimate knowledge9)familiar with10)human companionsText B1)spreading the word about “the crisis facing these social, sensitive, passionately intense, playful, complex, exceedingly intelligent and endangered creatures”.2)their sizes and species.3)they are quite consciously together, each pacing herself to the other’s gait and waiting for the other to catch up.4)stood vigil outside the building, knowing that her friend was inside.5)saw past the things they didn’t have in common and found in each other common ground enough•CET-Oriented StudyListening1、B2、A3、C4、D5、C6、A7、D8、AReading Comprehension(1)G(2)A(3)F(4)J(5)B(6)K(7)C(8)H(9)I(10)BParagraph Translation(翻译参考)Chinese martial arts may be traced back to prehistoric times when Chinese ancestors used stones and wooden clubs in hunting for subsistence and self-defense. It is recorded in the history that there were people specializing in martial arts during the periods of Spring and Autumn and the Warring States, and considered it as a theory to maintain good health and applied it in wars when necessary. The martial arts are either bare-handed or weapon-in-hand practice or performance according to certain sets. Generally speaking, modern martial arts consist of such five categories as boxing, weapon exercises, sparring exercises, actual combat and teamwork. The five categories can be further divided into different schools or styles. The martial arts play positive roles in strengthening the body, developing the potential of the body, tempering people’s will power and even curing difficult and complex cases of illness. They are a precious national cultural legacy of China.•Unit TestsUnit Test - I1-5: BDADB6-10: BACAB11-15: DDACB16-20: DDADAUnit Test - II1-5: CBBAB(6)E. companion (7)A. affinity (8)L. disparity (9)G. species (10)F. infirmity (11)O. immobile (12)C. vigil(13)I. resumed (14)N. overwhelming (15)D. memorial16-20: BADCC21-25: BCABCU3•Textbook StudyListening1)long-term survival2)coordinate the relationship3)environmental goals4)promote this concept5)economic and political issues6)building materials7)architecture and ecology8)environmental effects9)the preservation10)enjoyment of future generationsText BPara. 1assemble a real building and structure a business Para. 2a critical architecturePara. 3a Paul Rudolph building in Boston and Richard Neutra’s Cyclorama Building in Gettysburg,Para. 4·wanting to save the entire building,·wanting to demolish it.Para. 5the protagonist in the battle to save or the antithesis to modern design.Para. 6emerges the richness of place and understanding of time.Para. 8experience and imagination,•CET-Oriented StudyListening1、B2、A3、B4、B5、B6、B7、A8、CReading Comprehension(1)B(2)F(3)B(4)H(5)A(6)E(7)J(8)I(9)G(10)CParagraph Translation(翻译参考)The Ancient City of Ping Yao is one of the well-preserved ancient county-level cities in China. Located in Ping Yao County, central Shanxi Province, the property includes three parts: the entire area within the walls of Ping Yao, Shuanglin Temple 6 kilometers southwest of the county seat, and Zhenguo Temple 12 kilometers northeast of the county seat. The design of this Ancient City shows the evolution of architectural styles and town planning in Imperial China over the past five centuries. Noteworthy are the imposing buildings associated with trading and bankingin the city, for Ping Yao was the major center for the whole China in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It retains all the Han city features, and provides a complete picture of the cultural, social, economic and religious development in Chinese history.

Ecological civilization, like material civilization, cultural and ethical civilization, and political civilization, is a historical concept. As such, ecological civilization is constantly undergoing a process of evolution from a lower stage to a higher stage as human civilization progresses. A comprehensive plan for the promotion of ecological progress was outlined in the political report to the Eighteenth National Congress of the CPC. The report clearly states that we must incorporate the idea of ecological civilization into every aspect of economic, political, cultural, and social progress; step up effortsto develop a resource-conserving and environmentally friendly society; and strive to build a beautiful China so as to realize lasting and sustainable development for the Chinese nation and make due contributions to global ecological security.•Unit TestsUnit Test - I1-5: CABDB6-10: AABAD11-15: ACBCA16-20: CDACBUnit Test - II1-5: CABCB(6)E. obtained(7)D. decaying(8)I. injecting(9)H. solidifies(10)C. available(11)F. eligible(12)B. routes(13)N. alternative(14)A. combined(15)G. protective16-20: BDADB21-25: CABCAU5•Textbook StudyListening1)gas emissions2)renewable energy3)ultimate source of energy 4)fossil fuels5)alternative energy6)mass transportation7)limited in supply8)our growing energy challenges9)diverse energy technologies10)destroy our environmentText B1)fossil fuelsglobal warmingatmospheric pollutants productioneconomic development hindrance2)renewable energyother alternative energy sources which are greener and renewable.3)the fossil fuelsit is derived from natural processes that are replenished constantly.4)it can reduce the reliance on exhaustible sources of fossil fuelsit is clean from the environmental point of view.•CET-Oriented StudyListening1、B2、D3、B4、C5、B6、C7、AReading Comprehension(1)E(2)B(3)I(4)A(5)D(6)G(7)J(8)F(9)C(10)HParagraph Translation(翻译参考)Traditionally, the Chinese love sports as an essential way for keeping fit as well as for entertainment.

This proves that Europeans in ancient times related porcelain closely with China. Porcelain found its way to Europe in the 15th century, playing an important place in the exchanges between China and other countries.
