Unit 2 The Fun They HadMargie even wrote about it that night inOn the page headed May 17, 2157, she her diary.wrote, "Today Tommy found a real book!"It was a very old book. Margie's grandfather once said that when he was a littleboy his grandfather told him that there was a time when all stories were printed on paper.They turned the pages, which were yellow and crinkly, and it was awfully funnyto read words that stood still instead of moving the way they were supposed to — ona screen, you know. And then, when they turned back to the page before, it had the same words on it that it had had when they read it the first time."Gee," said Tommy, "What a waste! When you're through with the book, youjust throw it away, I guess. Our television screen must have a million books on itand it's good for plenty more. I wouldn't throw it away.""Same with mine," said Margie. She was eleven and hadn't seen as manytelebooks as Tommy had. He was thirteen.She said, "Where did you find it?""In my house," he pointed without looking because he was busy reading. "In the attic.""What's it about?""School."Margie was scornful. "School? What's there to write about school? I hat school."Margie always hated school, but now she hated it more than ever. Themechanical teacher had been giving her test after test in geography and she hadbeen doing worse and worse until her mother had shaken her head sorrowfully andsent for the County Inspector.He was a round little man with a red face and a whole box of tools with dialsand wires. He smiled at Margie and gave her an apple, then took the teacher apart. Margie had hoped he wouldn't know how to put it together again, but he knew howall right, and, after an hour or so, there it was again, large and black and ugly, witha big screen on which all the lessons were shown and the questions were asked.That wasn't so bad. The part Margie hated most was the slot where she had to put homework and test papers. She always had to write them out in a punch code they made her learn when she was six years old, and the mechanical teacher calculated the mark in no time.Margie was disappointed. She had been hoping they would take the teacher away altogether.So she said to Tommy, "Why would anyone write about school?"Tommy looked at her with very superior eyes, "Because it's not our kind of school, stupid.This is the old kind of school that they had hundreds and hundreds of years ago."He added loftily, pronouncing the word carefully, "Centuries ago."Margie was hurt. "Well, I don't know what kind of school they had all thattime ago." She read the book over his shoulder for a while, then said,"Anyway, they had a teacher.""Sure they had a teacher, but it wasn't a regular teacher. It was a man.""A man? How could a man be a teacher?""Well, he just told the boys and girls things and gave them homework and asked them questions.""A man isn't smart enough.""Sure he is. My father knows as much as my teacher."Margie wasn't prepared to dispute that. She said, "I wouldn't want a strange man in my house to teach me."Tommy screamed with laughter. "You don't know much, Margie. Theteachers didn't live in the house. They had a special building and all the kidswent there.""And all the kids learned the same thing?""Sure, if they were the same age.""But my mother says a teacher has to be adjusted to fit the minds of each boy and girl it teaches and that each kid has to be taught differently."They weren't even half-finished when Margie's mother called, "Margie! School!"Margie looked up. "Not yet, Mamma.""Now!" said Mrs. Jones. "And it's probably time for Tommy, too."Margie said to Tommy, "Can I read the book some more with you after school?""Maybe," he said nonchalantly. He walked away whistling, the dusty old book tucked beneath his arm.Margie went into the schoolroom. It was right next to her bedroom, and the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same timeevery day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said little girls learned better if they learned at regular hours.The screen was lit up, and it said: "Today's arithmetic lesson is on the addition of proper fractions. Please insert yesterday's homework in the proper slot."Margie did so with a sigh. She was thinking about the old school they had when her grandfather's grandfather was a little boy. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, laughing and shouting in the schoolyard, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home togetherat the end of the day. They learned the same things, so they could help one another on the homework and talk about it.And the teachers were people.Margie was thinking about how the kids must have loved it in the old days.She was thinking about the fun they had.他们的快乐那天晚上玛吉甚至在她的日记里还写到了它。

Not knowing what to do, I stood still by the side of the road, tears welling up in my eyes. Then a car pulled in and I heard a voice asking what the matter was.

All sorts of memories, like the time Tim Shea broke the window, the Halloween that we tiedOld Mr. Parker's gate, and when Mrs. Culver used to keep us after school, came flooding back. What a great time we spent hanging out together. Come to think of it, time was just about all we did have to spend in those days.But time flies. I began the letter with "Old Friend" because that's what we've become over the years—old friends. And there aren't many of us left. Which makes those who are all the more precious. Y ou in particular. Y our friendship over the years has meant an awful lot to me, more than I can say because I'm not good at saying things like that.Anyway, we've been out of touch for far too long.

Before you read it, let me tell you something about its author, Stephen Hawking.Hawking is perhaps the most well-known scientist since Einstein. Like Einstein his work tackles the big questions, questions such as How did the universe begin? Why is the universe the way it is? and How will it end? He is now working on what is sometimes known as the 'theory of everything.' Among other things, this promises to explain what caused the Big Bang that started the universe.But it is not simply the power of Hawking's mind that has led to his fame. For what many people find most striking about him is the contrast between the strength of his mind and the weakness of his body. For for many years Hawking has suffered from an illness that has left him unable to move and to speak normally.Born in England in 1942, Hawking had a normal childhood, and it was not until he was a student at university that his illness started to affect him. Hospital tests showed he was suffering from a disease that weakens control over the muscles. The disease gets worse with time and there is no known cure. But Hawking did not lose heart. As he says, "although there was a cloud hanging over my future, I found, to my surprise, that I was enjoying life more than before. I began to make progress with my research, and I got engaged to a girl called Jane Wilde. That engagement changed my life. It gave me something to live for."Hawking started research at Cambridge and went on to hold the same post that another great scientist, Newton, once held. Over the years his condition has worsened, but even when he finally lost the ability to speak, he managed to get round the problem. He now uses a computer that enables him to select words which are then turned into speech. "The only trouble," the English scientist says, "is that it gives me an American accent!"- 102 -Appendix IPart II Text AT ext Organization1.Parts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1-3 To make informed decisions about change, the public needs a basic understanding of science.Part Two Paras 4-6 What can be done to educate the public about science.

Computers, for example, have provided some with the comfort of working from home while at the same time throwing others out of work as their jobs are automated. In the future changes are likely to be even much greater as science reaches out to shape life itself. New organisms (有机体) are already being engineered. New genetically modified crops promise benefits from higher yields and less use of harmful chemicals.But once again we cannot be sure that science will only change our lives for the better.

Unit OneText AComprehensionContent QuestionsPair Work1 He used to be utterly bored by English courses.2 When he was in the third year in high school.3 He heard that Mr. Fleagle was dull, formal, rigid, and hopelessly out of date, and unable to inspire. He thought he was excessively prim and proper.4 Because he expected the topics would be dull.5 The art of Eating Spaghetti.6 Because this topic brought back vivid memories of a night in Belleville when he and his family members learned how to eat spaghetti.7 He thought he would violate all the rules of formal composition he’d learned in school, and Mr. Fleagle would surely give it a failing grade.8 He was preparing himself for a command to report to Mr. Fleagle immediately after school for discipline.9 He announced that he wanted to read an essay to the class.10 Mr. Fleagle was reading Mr. Baker’s essay to the class. The class listened attentively, and then the entire class was laughing with open-hearted enjoyment.11 Because both Mr. Fleagle and his classmates appreciated his essay very much.12 Probably he meant that the way Baker’s essay was composed was exactly the way essays should be written or that the essence of a good essay is that it can move readers.Text OrganizationWorking on Your Own1 2 Baker’s impression of his new English teacher4 Vivid memories the title brought back6 Anticipating punishment8 Classmates’ response to the essay2 Part Two: Baker found himself attracted by one particular topic and wrote about it for his own joy.Part Three: The experience of writing the essay helped him discover his talent for writing and realize what he wished to do in life.Language Sense Enhancement1 ⑴warmth (2) put it down (3) recapture and hold (4) relive (5) however (6) violate (7) composition (8) a failing grade (9) mind (10) for myself Language Focus1 V ocabulary1 1) respectable 2) agony 3) put down 4) sequence 5) hold back6) distribute 7) off and on 8) vivid 9) associate 10) finally11) turn in 12) tackle2 1) has been assigned to the newspaper’s Paris office.2) was so extraordinary that I didn’t know whether to believe him or not.3) a clear image of how she would look in twenty years’ time.4) gave the command the soldiers opened fire.5) buying bikes we’ll keep turning them out.3 1) reputation, rigid, to inspire2) and tedious, What’s more, out of date ideas3) compose, career, avoid showing, hardly hold backII Synonyms in Context1 composed2 severe3 agony4 extraordinary5 recall6 command7 was violating8 anticipateIII Collocation1 at2 for3 of4 with5 as6 about7 to8 in, in9 from 10 on/upon Comprehensive Exercises1 Cloze1 Text-related(1) hold back (2) tedious (3) scanned (4) recall (5) vivid (6) off and on (7) turn out/in (8) career2 Theme-related(1) last (2) surprise (3) pulled (4) blowing (5) dressed (6) scene(7) extraordinary (8) image (9) turn (10) excitementII Translation11) As it was a formal dinner party, I wore formal dress, as Mother told me to.2) His girlfriend advised him to get out of/get rid of his bad habit of smoking before ittook hold.3) Anticipating that the demand for electricity will be high during the next few months, they have decided to increase its production.4) It is said that Bill has been fired for continually violating the company’s safety rules. / Bill is said to have been fired for continually violating the company’s safety rules.5) It is reported that the government has taken proper measures to avoid the possibility of a severe water shortage. / The local government is reported to have taken proper measures to avoid the possibility of a severe water shortage.2 Susan lost her legs because of / in a car accident.

Unit 2 The Fun They HadMargie even wrote about it that night in her diary. On the page headed May 17, 2157, she wrote, "Today Tommy found a real book!"It was a very old book. Margie's grandfather once said that when he was a little boy his grandfather told him that there was a time when all stories were printed on paper.They turned the pages, which were yellow and crinkly, and it was awfully funny to read words that stood still instead of moving the way they were supposed to—on a screen, you know. And then, when they turned back to the page before, it had the same words on it that it had had when they read it the first time."Gee," said Tommy, "What a waste! When you're through with the book, you just throw it away, I guess. Our television screen must have a million books on it and it's good for plenty more.I wouldn't throw it away.""Same with mine," said Margie. She was eleven and hadn't seen as many telebooks as Tommy had. He was thirteen.She said, "Where did you find it?""In my house," he pointed without looking because he was busy reading. "In the attic.""What's it about?""School."Margie was scornful. "School? What's there to write about school? I hat school."Margie always hated school, but now she hated it more than ever. The mechanical teacher had been giving her test after test in geography and she had been doing worse and worse until her mother had shaken her head sorrowfully and sent for the County Inspector.He was a round little man with a red face and a whole box of tools with dials and wires. He smiled at Margie and gave her an apple, then took the teacher apart. Margie had hoped he wouldn't know how to put it together again, but he knew how all right, and, after an hour or so, there it was again, large and black and ugly, with a big screen on which all the lessons were shown and the questions were asked. That wasn't so bad. The part Margie hated most was the slot where she had to put homework and test papers. She always had to write them out in a punch code they made her learn when she was six years old, and the mechanical teacher calculated the mark in no time.Margie was disappointed. She had been hoping they would take the teacher away altogether. So she said to Tommy, "Why would anyone write about school?"Tommy looked at her with very superior eyes, "Because it's not our kind of school, stupid. This is the old kind of school that they had hundreds and hundreds of years ago." He added loftily, pronouncing the word carefully, "Centuries ago."Margie was hurt. "Well, I don't know what kind of school they had all that time ago." She read the book over his shoulder for a while, then said, "Anyway, they had a teacher.""Sure they had a teacher, but it wasn't a regular teacher. It was a man.""A man? How could a man be a teacher?""Well, he just told the boys and girls things and gave them homework and asked them questions.""A man isn't smart enough.""Sure he is. My father knows as much as my teacher."Margie wasn't prepared to dispute that. She said, "I wouldn't want a strange man in my house to teach me."Tommy screamed with laughter. "You don't know much, Margie. The teachers didn't live in the house. They had a special building and all the kids went there.""And all the kids learned the same thing?""Sure, if they were the same age.""But my mother says a teacher has to be adjusted to fit the minds of each boy and girl it teaches and that each kid has to be taught differently."They weren't even half-finished when Margie's mother called, "Margie! School!"Margie looked up. "Not yet, Mamma.""Now!" said Mrs. Jones. "And it's probably time for Tommy, too."Margie said to Tommy, "Can I read the book some more with you after school?""Maybe," he said nonchalantly. He walked away whistling, the dusty old book tucked beneath his arm.Margie went into the schoolroom. It was right next to her bedroom, and the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said little girls learned better if they learned at regular hours.The screen was lit up, and it said: "Today's arithmetic lesson is on the addition of proper fractions. Please insert yesterday's homework in the proper slot."Margie did so with a sigh. She was thinking about the old school they had when her grandfather's grandfather was a little boy. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, laughing and shouting in the schoolyard, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home together at the end of the day. They learned the same things, so they could help one another on the homework and talk about it.And the teachers were people.Margie was thinking about how the kids must have loved it in the old days. She was thinking about the fun they had.他们的快乐那天晚上玛吉甚至在她的日记里还写到了它。
