He is a mysterious figure known chiefly t hrough the accounts of later classical writers, especially the writings of h is most famous student Plato. Socrates has become well known for his contri bution to the field of ethics. His method of teaching, known as the Socrat ic Method, by asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to explain ideas remains a commonly used tool in a wide range of disc ussions. He also made important and lasting contributions to the field of e pistemology (认识论) and logic, and the influence of his ideas and approach remains a stron g foundation for Western philosophy that followed. Socrates was the most col orful figure in the history of ancient philosophy. His fame was widespreadin his own time, and his name soon became a household word although he co nstructed no philosophical system, established no school, and founded no sect (宗派).苏格拉底是古希腊哲学家, 被誉为现代西方哲学的奠基人。

Indeed, people are so concerned with their appearance that the word “diet diet”” has lost its original meaning. It now has the same meaning as “weight loss diet diet””. There was a time when women bound their waists to have a nice figure. Them came Twiggy, a British supermodel most famous in the 1960s, and since then everyone has wanted to look like a twig. Because of this trend, many diets have become popular. It is not uncommon to meet young girls who look weak enough to be blown away in the wind, yet they are still talking about diets!

Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Medical Services on CampusWhile every university in America has its own policies and creates its own rules, most provide some type of medical service or health insurance for students, especially large universities. If students have a cold, or other illnesses, they can see a doctor, and they may also seek medical advice on a range of issues. Free testing for STDs such as HIV is a major part of disease prevention prevention——sharing important information about the epidemic. If students need a major operation or procedure, they must seek outside assistance, but the school may help them make the arrangements. Smaller universities and colleges are not likely to provide in-depth medical assistance; they usually deal with small problems in housing, and assist students to take care of major issues off campus. No medical services are offered in universities and colleges that do not have students living on campus.1. medical servicehealth insurance 2. medical advice 3. operation outsidemake the arrangements 4. medical assistance housingoff campus 5. living on campusTask 2: An Expensive TreatmentSteven had a temperature of 100.
