One thinks of successes in medicine in the fight against disease, such as the invention of antibiotics and the promise held out by advances in biogenetic engineering. On a broader scale, one thinks of man's success in harnessing new forms of energy from steam power through oil to nuclear power.Yet, nature has often hit back in unexpected ways to these attempts to tame it. New forms ofAppendix I - 98-disease that are resistant to antibiotics are constantly developing. Burning fossil fuels has led to fears of global warming; while nuclear power has produced dangerous waste that will remain a hazard for generations to come.However, perhaps to talk of man triumphing over nature is the wrong way to look at the matter. We need to find ways to work with nature rather than forever fighting against it.(154 words)Unit 2Text org. Ex. 2 On P381. Smart cars can see, hear, feel, smell, talk, and act;2.

Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.Unit 7VocabularyI.11) divined 2) nerves 3) solidarity 4) sacred, mourn 5) coated 6) perish 7) hijack8) grief9) farewell 10) take revenge on 11) revolves, revolves 12) denounced21)drop …off 2)applied for 3) went off 4)are gaining on 5) bring down 6) blottedout7)think back on 8) picking … at31)brought down the American housing market in 20082)what will happen after his son steps into shoes3)not in the mood to go out4)long before the market began to show signs of weakness5)mourn the loss of the tranquil life we had in the countryside41)in the aftermath of , to blot out , the tragic2)armed, at dusk, accomplices, explosive3) in the space of, no illusionII1. a little of2. a few , most of /many of3. much4. few5. many6. many of7.much of8. little 9. few of 10. someIII.1.As the boy grew older2.She sings as beautifully as a nightingale/sings like a nightingale3.they don’t see themselves, as servants of the people4.As she had left her key in the office5.Just do as you are told6.Areas once regarded as rural7.as they do in China8.As he was brave and loyal as wellComprehensive Exercises1.mood2. tragic3. in the… aftermath of4. chaos5. toppling6. solidarity7. take revenge on 8. thinking back on 9. mourning 10. perished1.crashed2. horrible3. harsh4. protect5. remove6. utterly7. truly8.justify 9. rewarded 10. devastatingII.1.Some high-ranking officers of the armed forces started a coup, toppling thegovernment and throwing the country into chaos2.The falling market shattered her illusion about getting rich quickly.3.Thinking back on the history of the World War II, we can see that the formationof the Allies was the natural product of the development of political and military circumstances then.4.Paul felt stung when Jim called him a religious fanatic.

The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of chocking 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 built to remember those killed in the disaster.

Integrated Course Book 4 Unit 2Listen to the recording two or three times and then think over the following questions: 1. According to the song, will the world be a better or a worse place in a few hundred years' time?2. Will the use of drugs to change the way we think and feel be common in the future?3. What does the song writer feel about the future? Is he optimistic or not?4. Do you share the views of the song writer about the effects of modern science and technology on man in the future?What will the world be like in five hundred years' time? A thousand years' time? Or more? Some people are optimistic, looking forward to a better world. Others are pessimistic, and fear that things can only get worse. The writer of the song you are about to listen to takes the pessimistic view. Looking further and further into the future things seem to him to get worse and worse. By 3535, he foresees all our thoughts and feelings will be shaped by drugs. Looking further still into the future he foretells that our bodies will waste away as machines do everything for us. Family life as we know it will fade away as children are bred artificially, chosen, in the words of the song, "from the bottom of a long black tube." Given that man seems to pay so little attention to taking care of the planet and avoiding using up all its resources, he ends by wondering whether man will still be around in the future. It's enough, as he says, to make even God shake his head.Here is the song:In the Year 2525Zager & EvansIn the year 2525If man is still aliveIf woman can surviveThey may findIn the year 3535Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies Everything you think, do, and sayIs in the pill you took todayIn the year 4545Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes You won't find a thing to doNobody's gonna look at youIn the year 5555Your arms are hanging limp at your sidesYour legs got nothing to doSome machine is doing that for youIn the year 6565Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too From the bottom of a long black tubeIn the year 7510If God's a-comin' he ought to make it by thenMaybe he'll look around himself and sayGuess it's time for the Judgement DayIn the year 8510God's gonna shake his mighty headHe'll either say I'm pleased where man has been Or tear it down and start againIn the year 9595I'm kinda wondering if man's gonna be alive He's taken everything this old earth can give And he ain't put back nothingNow it's been 10,000 yearsMan has cried a billion tearsFor what he never knewNow man's reign is throughBut through eternal nightThe twinkling of starlightSo very far awayMaybe it's only yesterdayText ASmart cars that can see, hear, feel, smell, and talk?

If you could afford a car, would you want to drive one? Why or why not?2. In your opinion, what is a “smart car”?Step 2 Background Information (25 minutes) (see T’s book Page 17-19)Ss are required to get the general information about Automobile industry, Global Positioning System (GPS), Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)*Automobile industry:The automobile industry is one of the most important industries in the world, affecting not only economies but also cultures. It provides jobs for millions of people.Automobiles revolutionized transportation in the 20th century, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business.The automobile has enabled people to travel and transport goods farther and faster, and has opened wider market areas for business and commerce.Automobile manufacturers are among the largest companies in the world. These corporations are often multinational. These companies often share parts, or use parts made in foreign factories.At the start of the 21st century, the trends of global trade and manufacturing flexibility continue. Computerization continues to be a major part of auto design and manufacture.*Global Positioning System (GPS):space-based radio-navigation system, consisting of 24 satellites and ground support. GPS provides users with accurate information about their position and velocity(速度), as well as the time, anywhere in the world and in all weather conditions.GPS determines location by computing the difference between the time that a signal is sent and the time it is received. GPS satellites carry atomic clocks that provide extremely accurate time.As of March 1994, 24 GPS satellites were in operation. GPS applications continue to grow in land, sea, air, and space navigation.The ability to enhance safety and to decrease fuel consumption will make GPS an important component of travel in the international airspace system. Airplanes will use GPS for landing at fogbound airports. Automobiles will use GPS as part of intelligence transportation systems.*Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS):advanced electronics, communications, and computer systems that increase the efficiency and safety of highway transportation.Originally known as Intelligent Vehicle/ Highway Systems (IVHS), these technologies can provide real-time information exchange between drivers and the roads, giving rise to the terms “smart cars” and “smart highways.”As the technologies have expanded to include public transportation and commercial vehicles, this range of technologies has become known as the Intelligent Transportation System.Increasingly, drivers will have access to up-to-the-minute information on traffic conditions, alternate routes, and directions to unfamiliar destinations. Ultimately, vehicle control may be automated.Step 3 Text Organization (10 minutes)Lead Ss through Text Organization exercise 1 (see Page 43).

2 In 1941, Adolf Hitler, leader of Nazi Germany, launched an attack against the Soviet Union, as Russia then was called. Hitler's military might was unequaled. His war machine had mowed down resistance in most of Europe. Hitler expected a short campaign but, like Napoleon before him, was taught a painful lesson. The Russian winter again came to the aid of the Soviet soldiers. 1941年，纳粹德国元首阿道夫·希特勒进攻当时被称作苏联的俄罗斯。

One thinks of successes in medicine in the fight against disease,such as the invention of antibiotics and the promise held out by advances in biogenetic engineering.On a broader scale,one thinks of man's success in harnessing new forms of energy from steam power through oil to nuclear power.Yet,nature has often hit back in unexpected ways to these attempts to tame it.New forms of-disease that are resistant to antibiotics are constantly developing.Burning fossil fuels has led to fears of global warming;while nuclear power has produced dangerous waste that will remain a hazard for generations to come.However,perhaps to talk of man triumphing over nature is the wrong way to look at the matter.We need to find ways to work with nature rather than forever fighting against it.(154words)Unit2Text org.Ex.2On P381.Smart cars can see,hear,feel,smell,talk,and act;2.They can eliminate most of car accidents3.They can alert the police and provide precise location of your car if stolen4.They can monitor one’s driving and the driving conditions nearby;5.They can alert the driver who feels drowsy;6.They can locate your car precisely and warn of traffic jams.
