They're colorful, beautiful? also lightweight. I don't want to carryanything heavy.Man: Ah, I don't think you should give handkerchiefs. They aren't a good gift in Chinese culture.Woman: Why not?Man: A handkerchief is a symbol of saying goodbye.Woman: Saying goodbye?Man: Yeah, like when you're going away ... and people are crying, so they need a handkerchief. Actually, I've heard that one of the best things to give is a dinner -- not a present, but a big dinner. It's good for business.Number 2: ArgentinaWoman: This is interesting. Did you know that in Argentina you should never give clothing unless you know the person really well?Man: Don't give clothing? Why not?Woman: Clothing -- even things like ties -- are too personal.

(During the freshman year, students may start thinking about their future. A certain professor, some ongoing school research programs, or a specific area of study, etc. could all be the factors that may influence students’ future careers.)Task Two Zooming In on the DetailsListen to the recording again and fill in each of the blanks according to what you have heard.1) The freshman year at college is, generally speaking, a time filled with anticipation , some anxiety, and wonderful discoveries .2) The workload will be heavier and the major challenges of college work are a large amount of reading and writing and the short deadlines .3) College Friendship will be among the most satisfying and long-term of one’s life. It’s always exciting to discover how wonderfully diverse college relationships can be.4) Students should remember that they are at college with an anticipated mission : they shouldn’t waste time on meaningless things .5) Going to college is not just to get a degree: it is to find out who you really are and what you are really made for .↑返回顶部Read and Explore / Text ATask One Discovering the Main Ideas1 Write down the main idea of the following paragraphs in the space provided.1) Para 2:Top students attain academic excellence by mastering a few basic principles that others can easily learn.2) Para 3:Top students learn to be organized.3) Para 4:Top students know how to schedule their time properly.4) Para 5:Top students are very serious about school and very active in class.5) Para 6:Students benefit from group study.2 Read the following statements and then decide whether each of them is true or false based on the information in the text.

(Para. 1)Being bright doesn’t necessarily make a student a top student. What is of more importance is that he / she learns how to make the best use of the abilities that he / she is born with.2) The students at the top of the class attain academic excellence by mastering a few basic principles that others can easily learn. (Para. 2) Anyone can be a top student if he / she adopts some basic principles that are not difficult to learn.3) According to one professor, the student who turns in neat work is already on the way to scoring an A. (Para. 5)One professor said that the student who turns in a piece of neat work is likely to get a very good score.Task Three Voicing Your ViewsWork in groups of threes or fours and discuss the following questions.1) Do you know any other secrets towards academic excellence besides those mentioned in Text A? If so, share them with your classmates.Other possible secrets are:find out the learning strategies that best suit oneself;consult more references;do extra reading;take a short break when tired; etc.2) Which is more important to you on your way towards academic excellence, intelligence or diligence (勤奋刻苦)? Why do you think so?Some students will opt for intelligence because some people hold that one can’t be a top student if he / she is not bright enough. Other students may say that diligent work always pays off.3) Do you think parental influence is a very important factor in a child’s academic excellence? Why or why not?Most people will say that good parental influence usually has positive effects on the children because parents are role models and first teachers of their children.4) Do you often participate in group study? Why or why not?People are sometimes divided on this question. Most people are positive towards group study because they learn better by discussing homework and problems together. Some may be negative toward group work, as they feel they are most efficient when studying alone. The attitude toward group work has been proven to be related to one’s personality.↑返回顶部Read and Explore / Text BChecking Your VocabularyWord DetectivePlay detective and find the required word or phrase in Text B according to the clues given.

(Para. 16)May I point out that if we don’t leave now we shall miss the bus?Checking Your Comprehension1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text B.1) What does the writer mean by “brutal economy”?Para. 2 in the text provides the answer. Studying at college means a huge sum of money to pay for tuition, room and board, books andmany other expenses. A student may have a loan of up to $5,000 when he graduates, and this same student has to work both part-time and full-time whenever possible at college.2) Why are humanities courses not popular with parents?Parents want to make sure that their children have a secure future and they don’t think that humanities subjects with no “practical” value will pay off.3) What are the possible reactions of a student who suffers from peer pressure?Examples of possible reactions include:a. always thinking other students are brighter and study harder;b. studying at the library as late as possible;c. doing homework till early morning;d. getting into a panic when exams are approaching and papers are due;e. getting sick and stuck;f. oversleeping due to tiredness; andg. doing more than expected.4) Who can help to free students from the pressures they suffer from? Professors, parents, and friends can help to free students from the pressures they suffer from, but it is the students themselves who should relieve themselves of the pressures.5) Explain in your own words why, according to the text, economic pressure is closely connected with parental pressure, and peer pressure with self-induced pressure.a. Students normally find it hard to cope with different kinds of fees at college without parental help. However, when students do get financial help from their parents, they will feel obligated to follow their parents’ advice, sometimes against their own will, because after all, their parents are paying all their expenses at college.b. When a student thinks that his / her peers are brighter and study harder, he / she will push himself / herself more, which will in turn induce more pressure on himself / herself.2 Read the following statements and then decide whether each of them is true or false based on the information in the text. Write T for True and F for False in the space provided before each statement. 1)T Without parental help, a student may be expected to have a large loan to pay back after graduation.2) F Many students dream of becoming dentists.(Many students don’t want to take pre-medical courses. So they go off to their labs as if they were going to see a dentist.)3)T Knowledge in the humanities can help create leaders in all general fields.4)T Lawyers, doctors and businessmen usually earn more than most of other people.5) F Students who finish an assignment up to requirements will be given the same credits as those who have done more.(When most students are doing more than they are expected to, those who are doing normal work can be perceived as not doing well.)3 Listed in the left column are the four pressures faced by college students and in the right column are causes or consequences linked to the pressures. Relate the causes or consequences to the types of pressure by following the example given. Some causes or consequences can be related to more than one type of pressure.Types of Pressure Causes or ConsequencesA. economic pressure ( a, d )B. parental pressure a. loans to payb. taking some courses unwillinglyc. taking courses with “practical value”( b, c )C. peer pressure( e, f, g )D. self-induced pressure ( e, f, g )d. heavy tuition fees, expenses on rooms and bookse. thinking some fellow students are working harderf. staying in the library till very lateg. doing more work than required4 Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicized parts.1) But there are no villains; only victims. (Para. 1)Nobody is to blame for the pressures college students are suffering; all involved are victims.2) They go off to their labs as if they were going to the dentist. (Para. 4) Many students who are taking pre-medical courses don’t like this major at all.3) They are caught in one of the oldest webs of love and duty and guilt. (Para. 9)Parents and children are trapped in an age-old struggle between feelings of love, duty and guilt arising out of their different outlooks.4) “Will I get everything done?” (Para. 13)The student is totally worn out and has become suspicious of his / her own ability.5) Pity the poor student who is still just doing the assignment. (Para. 15) The students who just fulfill what they are asked to do are put at a disadvantaged position.6) The tactic works, psychologically. (Para. 16)Teachers are likely to give a higher credit to students who do more than expected.↑返回顶部Optional Classroom Activities1 Sit in groups of threes or fours and discuss each of the following questions.1) Do college students in China suffer from the same pressures mentioned in Text B? Are there any differences?Most students perhaps will say “yes” to this question as the four kinds of pressure mentioned in the text are also felt by Chinese university students. The only significant difference, perhaps, lies in the fact that Chinese university students enjoy more financial support from their parents than their American counterparts.2) What is your major? Who chose this major, you or your parents? Are you happy with your major so far? Give reasons.Answers will vary depending on who the student is and what family background he or she comes from.3) Are you working part time while being a full-time student? If so, why are you working part time? If not, do you think it’s good to work part time while being a full-time student?Some students in China are working part time while being full-time students. Some work because they need money to cover their expenses at college; some work because they think working experience is important for them.2 Sit in groups and discuss with your classmates the learning methods effective in achieving academic excellence you agree with.
