Unit 2 BRIDGING CULTURES单元分析单元主题：人与社会单元内容分析本单元主题语境是人与社会，围绕“文化沟通与交流（Bridging cultures）”这一主题展开。
内容涵盖中国学生国外留学的经历、巴基斯坦孔子学院的情况、不同家长对出国留学利与弊的观点等。
作为青年人主体的学生既要学习世界各国的优秀文化，汲取精华，博采众长，又要积极推动中华文化走向世界，增强中华文化的国际影响力，在对外文化交流中，既要认同民族文化，坚定文化自信，又要尊重文化的多样性，学会包容其他民族文化，求同存异，和睦相处，在文化沟通和交流中肩负起文化传播和沟通的使命。
以下为教材各部分教学内容的简要分析及教学活动的实施建议：1．Opening Page 主题图展示的是国外大学课堂的场景，画面上的主体人群是不同肤色的国外青年。
出国留学是青年学生接触外国文化的一种常见方式，在海外求学的同时，留学生沟通中外文化，构架起中国与世界的桥梁，本单元的阅读语篇便是从留学生的视角切入文化沟通和交流这一主题的。
开篇页的引言“I am not the same，having seen the moon shine on the ot her side of the world.”可译为：当在世界的另一端看到月光闪耀的时候，我就不一样了。
这句话阐述了一个人在接触另一种全新的文化后的心理触动，以及自己在深入体验这一文化后产生的深刻变化，用简练又深刻的语言阐释了文化沟通与交流对个人的意义。
它能让人们开阔视野，增长见识，理解不同文化之间的差异，接受新的观念和价值观的挑战，在文化交融中学会用新的眼光看待自己的文化，更全面地理解人性和世界，从而形成更为完整的人生观和世界观。
2．Reading and Thinking 阅读语篇是一篇刊登在伦敦一所大学校报上的文章，讲述了中国商科留学生谢蕾国外的留学生活。
文章有两条线索，一条线索介绍了谢蕾初到国外时在生活和学业上遇到的种种困难和挑战，并逐渐适应新环境的经历，以及伴随这些经历所产生的一系列情感体验的变化，具体表现为：离开祖国和家人朋友飞往陌生国度时的兴奋、紧张与迷茫，与寄宿家庭相处过程中获得的安慰，听到导师提出学术要求时的困惑，在学业上取得进步后的惊喜，作报告成功后重获的信心，以及逐渐适应新生活后内心的轻松自在。

Punjabi，this tropical fruit traces its origins to South Asia.Urdu and Hindi literature are filled with references to this fruit that once filled the kitchens and gardens of emperors.Everyone is crazy about mangoes during the summer months in South Asia.City streets in India are lined with vendors(小贩) selling all varieties of mangoes.Young and old bargain for better prices，mangoes are sent as gifts，restaurants have special mango menu items and the fruit becomes a gesture of goodwill between India and Pakistan，with the choicest varieties sent across the border to celebrate each country’s independence days.South Asians all over the world await mango season.South Asian stores receive shipments of the fruit，though they are limited in quality and quantity.Each year，I savor(品尝) my mangoes，though I’m saddened that popular varieties aren’t easily available in Vancouver.Mango memories take me back to the city I was born in：Rourkela in the eastern part of India.In late March，just as the days would start to become hot，I remember mango trees blooming with their fresh fragrance in the breeze as we biked to e April，the trees would start bearing fruit.I remember the thrill of sneaking out to collect raw mangoes，climbing onto the roof of our quarters and eating them with pink salt and powdered red chilies (红辣椒粉) alongside my best friend.Mango stories from my childhood are endless.But this summer in Vancouver，I can’t help but remember my sweet mango memories.I realize that I need to wander the streets of my home country，to feel the intense heat of the summer months and soak in the country of my birth.Instead，I am in this state savoring mangoes，enjoying those I can find in Canada but missing the Indian varieties.This year，the mighty mango has become a symbol of the

the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Mango MemoriesB.The King of Fruits in the EastC.My Affection for My MotherlandD.The Different Tastes of MangoesTeens who have good，supportive relationships with their teachers enjoy better health as adults，according to research published by an American research centre.“This research suggests that improving students’ relationships with teachers could have positive and long-lasting effects beyond just academic success，” said Jinho Kim，a professor at Korea University and author of the study.“It could also bring about health implications in the long run.”Previous research has suggested that teens’ social relationships might be linked to health outcomes in adulthood.However，it is not clear whether the link between teen relationships and lifetime health is causal(因果关系的)—it could be that other factors，such as different family backgrounds，might contribute to both relationship problems in adolescence and poor health in adulthood.Also，most research has focused on teens’ relationships with their peers(同龄人)，rather than on their relationships with teachers. To explore those questions further，Kim analyzed data on nearly 20，000 participants from the Add Health study，a national study in the US that followed participants from seventh grade into early adulthood.The participant pool included more than 3，400 pairs of siblings(兄弟姐妹).As teens，participants answered questions，like“How often have you had trouble getting along with other students and your teachers？”As adults，participants were asked about their physical and mental health.Kim found that participants who had reported better relationships with both their peers and teachers in middle and high school also reported better physical and mental health in their mid-20s.However，when he controlled for family background by looking at pairs of siblings together，only the link between good teacher relationships and adult health remained significant.The results suggest teacher relationships are more important than previously realized and that schools should invest in training teachers on how to build warm andsupportive relationships with their students.“This is not something that most teachers receive much training in，”Kim said.“But it should be.”8.What does the underlined word “implications” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Recipes.B.Habits.C.Benefits.D.Risks.9.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.Poor health in adolescence.B.Limitations of the previous research.C.Teens’ relationships with their peers.D.Factors affecting health in adulthood.10.What does Kim’s research show?A.Good adult health depends on teens’ good teachers.B.Good family background promises long-term adult health.C.Healthy peer relationship leads to students’ academic success.D.Positive student-teacher relationship helps students’ adult health.11.Where does this text probably come from?A.A health magazine.B.A medical report.C.A term paper.D.A family survey.Ⅱ.七选五(2024·临沂二模)Being late is a tendency that some people cannot seem to shake.Many factors contribute to continual lateness, including time perception, time management and personality.We all know someone who never seems to be on time, whether it’s to a lunch date or a work meeting.__1__“It is likely that there’s a mechanism in the brain that causes some people to be late for meetings because they underestimate the time it will take them to get there，”Hugo Spiers, a professor at University College London told Li v e Science.__2__ Research suggests that neurons in the hippocampus(海马体)acting as “time cells” contribute to our perception and memory of events, but why exactly some peoplecontinually underestimate time is unclear.One factor may be how familiar we are with a space.For the 2017 study, Spiers asked 20 students who had newly moved to London to sketch a map of their college district and estimate travel times to different destinations.The students’ space estimates expanded if they knew an area well.__3__“If you’re very familiar with a space, you start to discount the trouble it will take，” Spiers said.Another environmental factor may be crowdedness.In a 2022 study in the journal Virtual Reality, researchers asked participants to estimate the length of more or less crowded simulated (模拟的)subway trips.They found that crowded commutes felt like they took 10% longer than less busy rides.__4____5__ Certain character features, such as reduced conscientiousness(责任心), can cause some people to forget tasks that they had planned ahead of time.A.Personality also plays a role in running late.B.That was linked to it being an unpleasant experience.C.We make time estimates based on how urgent the tasks are.D.However, their estimates of travel time contracted with familiarity.E.But is there a good explanation for why some people are always late?F.A region of the brain, called hippocampus，processes some aspects of time.G.That’s because people who run late tell themselves and others they can be punctual.选择性必修其次册UNIT 2Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是应用文。
