Overcoming ObstaclesPart I Pre-Reading TaskListen to the recording two or three times and then think over the following questions:1. What happened to the singer?2. What helped her pull through all the hardships she suffered?3. What is the tone of the song?4. Is the song related to the theme of the unit — overcoming obstacles?Part IITextLook at the following two sayings and then see if the story of Michael Stone bears out the points they make.The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it.—— MoliereWhen it is dark enough, you can see the stars.—— Charles A, BeardTRUE HEIGHTDavid NasterHis palms were sweating. He needed a towel to dry his grip. The sun was as hot as the competition he faced today at the National Junior Olympics. The pole was set at 17 feet. That was three inches higher than his personal best. Michael Stone confronted the most challenging day of his pole-vaulting career.The stands were still filled with about 20,000 people, even though the final race had ended an hour earlier. The pole vault is truly the highlight of any track and field competition. It combines the grace of a gymnast with the strength of a body builder. It also has the element of flying, and the thought of flying as high as a two-story building is a mere fantasy to anyone watching such an event.As long as Michael could remember he had always dreamed of flying. Michael's mother read him numerous stories about flying when he was growing up. Her stories were always ones that described the land from a bird'seye view. Her excitement and passion for details made Michael's dreams full of color and beauty. Michael had this one recurring dream. He would be running down a country road. As he raced between golden wheat fields, he would always outrun the locomotives passing by. It was at the exact moment he took a deep breath that he began to lift off the ground. He would begin soaring like an eagle.Where he flew would always coincide with his mother's stories. Wherever he flew was with a keen eye for detail and the free spirit of his mother's love. His dad, on the other hand, was not a dreamer. Bert Stone was a hardcore realist. He believed in hard work and sweat. His motto: If you want something, work for it!From the age of 14, Michael did just that. He began a very careful training program. He worked out every other day with weightlifting, with some kind of running work on alternate days. The program was carefully monitored by Michael's coach, trainer and father. Michael's dedication, determination and discipline was a coach's dream. Besides being an honor student and only child, Michael Stone continued to help his parents with their farmchores. Mildred Stone, Michael's mother, wished he could relax a bit more and be that "free dreaming" little boy. On one occasion she attempted to talk to him and his father about this, but his dad quickly interrupted, smiled and said, "You want something, work for it!"All of Michael's vaults today seemed to be the reward for his hard work. If Michael Stone was surprised, excited or vain about clearing the bar at 17 feet, you couldn't tell. As soon as he landed on the inflated landing mat, and with the crowd on its feet, Michael immediately began preparing for his next attempt at flight. He seemed unaware of the fact that he had just beaten his personal best by three inches and that he was one of the final two competitors in the pole-vaulting event at the National Junior Olympics.When Michael cleared the bar at 17 feet 2 inches and 17 feet 4 inches, again he showed no emotion. As he lay on his back and heard the crowd groan, he knew the other vaulter had missed his final jump. He knew it was time for his final jump. Since the other vaulter had fewer misses, Michael needed to clear this vault to win. A miss would get him second place. Nothing to be ashamed of, but Michael would not allow himself the thought of not winning first place.He rolled over and did his routine of three finger-tipped push-ups. He found his pole, stood and stepped on the runway that led to the most challenging event of his 17-year-old life.The runway felt different this time. It startled him for a brief moment. Then it all hit him like a wet bale of hay. The bar was set at nine inches higher than his personal best. That's only one inch off the National record, he thought. The intensity of the moment filled his mind with anxiety. He began shaking the tension. Itwasn't working. He became more tense. Why was this happening to him now, he thought. He began to get nervous. Afraid would be a more accurate description. What was he going to do? He had never experienced these feelings. Then out of nowhere, and from the deepest depths of his soul, he pictured his mother. Why now? What was his mother doing in his thoughts at a time like this? It was simple. His mother always used to tell him when you felt tense, anxious or even scared, take deep breaths.So he did. Along with shaking the tension from his legs, he gently laid his pole at his feet. He began to stretch out his arms and upper body. The light breeze that was once there was now gone. He carefully picked up his pole. He felt his heart pounding. He was sure the crowd did, too. The silence was deafening. When he heard the singing of some distant birds in flight, he knew it was his time to fly.As he began sprinting down the runway, something felt wonderfully different, yet familiar. The surface below him felt like the country road he used to dream about. Visions of the golden wheat fields seemed to fill his thoughts. When he took a deep breath, it happened. He began to fly. His take-off was effortless. Michael Stone was now flying, just like in his childhood dreams. Only this time he knew he wasn't dreaming. This was real. Everything seemed to be moving in slow motion. The air around him was the purest and freshest he had ever sensed. Michael was soaring like an eagle.It was either the eruption of the people in the stands or the thump of his landing that brought Michael back to earth. On his back with that wonderful hot sun on his face, he knew he could only see in his mind's eye the smile on his mother's face. He knew his dad was probably smiling too, even laughing. What he didn'tknow was that his dad was hugging his wife and crying. That's right: Bert "If You Want It, Work For It" Stone was crying like a baby in his wife's arms. He was crying harder than Mildred had ever seen before. She also knew he was crying the greatest tears of all: tears of pride. Michael was immediately surrounded by people hugging and congratulating him on the greatest accomplishment of his life. He later went on that day to clear 17 feet 6 1/2 inches: a National and International Junior Olympics record.With all the media attention and sponsorship possibilities, Michael's life would never be the same again. It wasn't just because he won the National Junior Olympics and set a new world record. And it wasn't because he had just increased his personal best by 9 l/2 inches. It was simply because Michael Stone is blind.New Words and Expressionsbear outprove that (sth.) is true 证实sweatvi. 出汗n. 汗水toweln. 毛巾，手巾pole-vaultvi., n. 撑竿跳高vaultn. 撑竿跳高 (=pole vault);撑物跳跃gracen. quality of being smooth and elegant, esp. in movement or structure 优美，优雅;雅致gymnastn. 体操家，体操运动员body buildern. 健美运动员merea. nothing more than 仅仅，只不过fantasyn. 幻想numerousa. very many 许多的，无数的passionn. strong feeling, esp. of love 热情detailn. small, particular fact or item 细节，琐碎的`事recur▲vi. come or happen again 再来;再发生outrun (outran, outrun)vt. run faster or better than; go beyond 跑得比…快;跑得比…好;超过eaglen. 鹰coincide▲vi. happen at the same time; be in agreement 同时发生;一致coincide with与…同时发生;与…一致hard-corea. 顽固不化的coren. the most important part 核心realistn. a person who deals in a practical way with situations as they actually are 现实主义者motton. 格言，座右铭work outgo through a physical exercise session 体育锻炼，训练weightliftingn. 举重(运动)alteinate▲a. every other or second; happening by turns 交替的;轮流的coachn.

外语系教案第次课学时：授课时间：第周Context: Unit 1Title: IntroductionsThe tone of a business relationship can be set by an initial introduction. It is important to make a good impression right from the first handshake. When meeting businesspeople for the first time, is it better to be formal or informal? If in doubt, advise students to adopt a more formal approach. Here are some points to remember when making business introductions in English-speaking Western countries:a.Introduce businesspeople in order of professional rank –the person of highestauthority is introduced to others in the group in descending order, depending on their professional position.b.When possible, stand up when introductions are being made.c.If clients are present, they should be introduced first.d.The same and title of the person being introduced is followed by the name and titleof the other person.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs listen to four businesspeople and match the speakers to their business cards.

During the late twentieth century the concept of a job for life was largely replaced by the short-term contracts favored by the enterprise culture. Some found themselves with too much free time n their hands when company restructures led to redundancies. Others saw leisure time shrink and working hours increase in exchange for greater financial rewards. The British TUC estimates that, despite European Union legislation, 4 million people in the UK work more than 48 hours per week and 1 in 25 work over 60 hours. It is thought that managers and professional staff work the longest hours.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs listen to four people talking about what they want from work and make word partnerships.Vocabulary 1: Days, months, datesSs practice days, months and dates and use the prepositions in, at and on with time phrases.Lesson 2Reading: Describing your routineSs read an article about the working day of Michael Dell, Chairman of Dell computers.

So problem-solving is an essential life skill both at home and in the office. Many pressurized managers in the modern business world may benefit from training in conflict resolution to resolve disagreements. It is wise to deal with sensitive matters face-to-face. Irate e-mails and memos often contain sentiments we would modify if speaking to the person directly. Social psychologist Albert Merabian says that words account for seven percent of communication, tone 38 percent and body language 55 percent. These elements are particularly useful in understanding and resolving potential conflict situation but can be lost in cyber communication. PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs match sentences and problems and listen to five phone calls to identify the product and the problem.Vocabulary: AdjectivesSs look at the adjectives and their opposites and use too and enough.Lesson 2Reading: Dealing with problems at workFour people answer the question: ‘What are the biggest problems facing your company?’Language focus 1: Present simple: negatives and questionsSs match questions and answers, make negative sentences and practice the question forms in a role play.Lesson 3Language focus 2: have gotSs look at the use of have got, haven’t got and Have you got?

The modern businessperson is more likely to choose flying as the quickest way of getting from A to B. Although safer than canoe, this can still pose hazards. Frequent fliers are likely to encounter a number of hurdles that can lead to increased stress levels. First, you have to acturally get on the plane. Most airlines overbook to minimise seat wastage and no-shows. This means that if all the passengers who actually booked seats turn up, there could be a shortage of place. If there are not enough volunteers to give up their seats, then you may find yourself bumped – denied boarding and put on a later flight.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about things they like and don't like when travelling on business. Vocabulary: Travel detailsSs practise the alphabet and numbers 1-100 and match verbs and travel phrases.

WritingSs write a fax to one of the guests confirming arrangements.第次课学时：授课时间：第周Context: Unit 5Title:Food and entertainmentFood can communicate complex messages about status, nationally and identity. The fashion for eating out in restaurant was adopted by the upper classes during the French revolution. Most English words relating to eating out are adopted from the French (hotel, café, menu, chef, etc.) including restaurant, which was originally from the French verb meaning ‘to store’. Later, the migrations of the twentieth century proved fertile ground for mingling cuisines and a knowledge of the vast variety on offer is viewed as a mark of modern cosmopolitan taste.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about the kind of food they like and match dishes and countries. Vocabulary: Eating outSs look at food groups and different parts of a menu.Reading: TippingThis reading section can be completed in two parts. Ss match jobs with places where people work. Then Ss talk about what services they tip before completing a table about which countries tip most often (Exercises A-C).Lesson 2Reading: TippingSs read an article about factors that encourage people to tip and answer comprehension questions (Exercises D-E).Language focus 1: some/anySs correct mistakes using some and any and underline the correct words in a dialogue.

Now advertisements pop up as text messages. Goods can be ordered by mall order. We can compare prices, get quotes, check if an item is in stock and place an order without moving away from our computer screen. In some ways the methods o buying and selling have undergone a revolution and in others little has changed since the early 1900s when keywords in sales were service and relationships. A modern sales force uses a mixture of tried and tested techniques and new technology to increase sales. The foundation of modern sales techniques was developed in the 1950s and includes gaining the client’s interest, building desire by showing product features or giving samples, increasing conviction by comparing the product with competitors or using statistics to highlight benefits and, finally, closing the deal.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs listen to three people talk about where and when they buy products. Vocabulary 1: Buying and sellingSs complete a sales leaflet for a computer company and listen to a conversation between a buyer and seller.Lesson 2Reading: Thirsty for success?Ss read a job advertisement for a sales representative in a soft drinks company.

Ss role play being salespeople and customers.WritingSs write an e-mail to a colleague about what phone and service package a customer wants, using information from the case study.第次课学时：授课时间：第周Context: Unit 7Title:PeopleWhat charactreristics can help people to succeed in business and in life? A positive attitude, intelligence, perserverance and self discipline all help. Are the personality traits that contribute to success or failiure genetic? Or do we learn these characeristics are we grow up? Experts still disagree as to whether nature or nurture is more important.Can personality and intelligence be measured? IQ and psychometric tests remain popular, and the latter are still used by many companies as part of the selection process. However, in recent years the idea that only one type of intelligence exists has been criticised. Howard Gardner developed the theory of multiple intelligence. This said that people have a number of different types of intelligence that they possess to varying degrees. These are linguistic, musical, logical-mathematical, spatical, body-kinesthetic, intrapersonal(e.g. insight) and interpersonal (e.g. social skills and the ability to understand and motivate other people).PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs answer a questionnaire about what sort of person they are.Vocabulary: Describing peopleSs look at the adjectives to describe people’s personalities.Listening: A difficult colleagueA property developer talks about a colleague who left the company.Lesson 2Language focus 1: Past simple: negatives and questionsSs focus on past simple negatives and questions and write questions using Why, How long, What, When and Where.Reading: Stella McCartneySs read an article about the fashion designer Stella McCartney.

Then they role paly a conversation negotiating a new company car.Lesson 4Case study: A people problemA US food coompany has problems with a business manager.WritingSs write a memo aobut their meeting.第次课学时：授课时间：第周Context: Unit 8Title:MarketsIf a company wants to sell a product or service successfully, it ust identify the target market. There are many different types of market to choose from. The mass market aims to sell to as many people as possible, crossing age and income groups. In contrast, a niche market focuses on a narrowly defined group fo customers. It often caters to a need that has been overlooked by those suppliers who cater to markets which deal in more mainstream products or sevices.

Changes are taking place at an incredible speed. Hardware is becoming more compact, faster and more affordable, allowing more individuals and companies to utilise the Net. In the past, research took longer, important documents got lost in the post and information could be difficult to find. Unfortunately this revolution has brought with it a new set of problems. Research is certainly quicker but connections can be slow, making it difficult to access the websites that you need. Documents can still get lost, but now they float around cyberspace. Spam can be a problem when you e-mail account becomes overloaded with advertising that you don't want. But more sinister are the various computer viruses which can make your computer crash.

It is easier to make a good impression in our own culture than in another, where our knowledge of the language and rules of behavior may be limited. Knowledge of the protocol and etiquette in the countries we do business with is essential. Protocol is adhering to the correct procedures and conduct in formal situations. This involves knowing the acceptable way to behave and includes formalities of rank, which denotes the level of a person’s position in an organisation. Etiquette focusses on communicating in a respectful and polite way in accordance with the good manners and accepted norms of the culture.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs look at tips for visiting another country or doing business there.Vocabulary: Company culturesSs complete sentences about different company cultures.Listening: Cultural mistakesSs listen to three people talk about cultural mistakes they have made.Lesson 2Language focus 1: should/ shouldn'tSs use should and shouldn't to give advice and make suggestions.Reading: Fast food in JapanAn American sandwich chain has problems with their Japanese franchise.

Despite the growth of outsourcing (buying in services that were previously performed by a company’s employees from outside the organisation) and teleworking by freelancers working from home communicating via the Internet, most professional people still go to what is recognisably a job in a building that is recognisably an office.

The dotcom frenzy of the late 1990s, with companies raising vast amounts of money from investors, for example just to sell dog food over the Internet, came and went, and some organisations removed the dotcom suffix from their names, so much did it become a synonym for failure. E-commerce courses in business schools are no longer oversubsribed and no longer preaching that ‘everything has changed’. Companies look more at how e-commerce can be used in conjunction with other methods of selling: in retailing this means clicks and mortar, combining traditional retail outlets with online operations, ratther than investing in a whole new expensive infrastructure.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about traditional shopping versus buying online and goods typically bought online Vocabulary: Shopping onlineSs work on words related to buying and selling.Listening: Selling onlineSs listen to the founder of the British operation of Amazon talk about how to succeed in online selling.Lesson 2Reading: Virtual pocket moneyTeenagers buy a lot online.

Ss role play negotiations between the two companies.第次课学时：授课时间：第周Context: Unit 3Title:CompaniesMultinationals are the most visible of companies. Their local subsidiaries give them sometimes global reach, even if their corporate culture, the way they do things, depends largely on their country of origin. But the tissue of most national economies is made up of much smaller organisations. Many countries owe much of their prosperity to SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprise) with tens or hundreds of employees, rather than the tens of thousands employed by large corporations. Small businesses with just a few employees are also important. Many governments hope that the small businesses of today will become the multinationals of tomorrow, but many owners of small companies chose to work that way because they find it more congenial and do not want to expand. PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about the types of company they would most like to work for and the business sector they work in now.Vocabulary: Company vocabularySs look at vocabulary used to describe companies and that used in company reports to describe performance.Listening: Reasons for successSs listen to the sales manager of a UK motocycle manufacturer talk about the factors that make his company successful.Lesson 2。
