Unit ‎1误‎会‎佚名‎‎他头发蓬乱‎，衣着肮脏‎，口袋里只‎有35美分‎。

在马里兰‎州的巴尔的‎摩，他登上‎一辆公共汽‎车并径直走‎向了洗手间‎。

他想如果‎他躲在洗手‎间里，便可‎以不付钱就‎乘车去纽约‎。

但是坐在‎公共汽车后‎面的一位乘‎客看见了他‎。

她拍了拍‎她前面那位‎乘客的肩膀‎说：“洗手‎间里有个流‎浪汉。

告诉‎公共汽车司‎机。

”那位‎乘客轻轻地‎拍了一下坐‎在他前面的‎人，说道：‎“告诉公共‎汽车司机，‎洗手间里有‎个流浪汉。

‎但在这一过‎程的某个环‎节，口信变‎了。

当它传‎到公共汽车‎司机那儿时‎，已经不是‎“洗手间里‎有个流浪汉‎”，而是“‎洗手间里有‎颗炸弹”。

‎司机马上在‎公路边停下‎车来并用无‎线电通知了‎警察。

当警‎察到达时，‎他们让乘客‎下车并且远‎离汽车。

WritingFor Better Understanding between Parents and ChildrenWith a steep rise in numbers of children who leave their kith and kin, the problem oflacking of understanding between parents and children has aroused general concern in recent years. And better understanding between the two generations is called for in society.So what causes this situation? First, it comes from the generation gap. Growing in different times leads to great difference in interests between the two generations. For example, R&B, about which many teenagers are crazy, is decadent music in their parents eyes. And meanwhile, teenagers can t stand the boredom and dullness in their parents life. Second, the reason is the lack of communication. Nowadays, parents slave to earn money and spend less time to talk with their children. And the children think it just an excuse of not concerning about them. Third, the reason is the pressure. As most children are from only child families, their parents baby them, hoping they will be successful in the future. But in fact, the pressure makeschildren depressed and heedless of advice. To solve this problem, efforts should be made by both sides: For parents, they should try to listen to their children with patience to find out what they really want; and for children, they just remember that what their parents do is all for their sake. And then the conversation between parents and children will be much easier and better understanding can be available.Ⅱ.

WritingMy View on Going after Fashion Nowadays, some college students like to go after fashion. Boy students wear long hair and blue jeans and girl students wear short hair and mini shirts. Whenever a new fashion appears on the street, these young people will just follow it without considering whether it is suitable to them or not. In their eyes, fashionis the symbol of the young generation. However, some other students prefer to go their own way. They pay little attention to the common taste of fashion. They often seek the styles they really like. Though sometimes what they wear is quite different from others, they do look great and nice.As to me, I don t like to go after fashion. Though fashion, in some way, may show a tendency of common taste, it depersonalizes people by making people everywhere look alike.

WritingOn StressWith the fast pace of modern life, more and more people are living under great pressure. Some people are afraid of pressure. They think that the stresses and strains of work deprive them of joy and happiness. In their view, stress does harm to them both physically and mentally. That is why they prefer something less competitive and strenuous to something more demanding and challenging.Others argue that stress isn t as bad as it is often supposed to be. Unless it is overwhelming, a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and stimulation. Without stress, you may slack off and idle away your time. It gives purpose and meaningto an otherwise meaningless, dull life. People under stress tend to bring their potential into full play and to realize their goals.In my opinion, we shouldn t escape from stress but to face it as it is. What we can do is to adapt to the stress and to profit from it rather than to avoid it.Ⅱ.

Appendix IKey to Exercises (Units 1-8)Unit 1Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:Ways of learning is the topic of this unit. It is also the topic of the song you are about to listen to, called Teach Your Children sung by Crosby, Stills and Nash.Teach Your ChildrenCrosby, Stills and NashYou, who are on the road,Must nave a code that you can live by.And so, become yourselr,Because the past is just a goodbye.Teach your cbildren well,Their lather's hell did slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,The one they picks, the one you'll mow by.Don't you ever ash them why, ir they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.Appendix I - 93 -And you, oi tender years,Can't know the rears that your elders grew by.Ana so please help them with your youtb,They seek the truth before tbey can die.Teacb your parents well,Tbeir children's bell will slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,Tbe one tbey picks, tbe one you'll know by.Don t you ever ask them why, ir tbey told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know tbey love you.The first part of die song is about how parents can inspire their children through sharing with them their dreams, their hopes for a better life. It starts with advice on how you need a set of rules, "a code diat you can live by," to guide you on the road of life. Only then will you be able to fully realise all that is within you and "become yourself." Therefore, parents need to teach their children well.And children — "you of tender years" — also have something to teach their parents, for learning is not a one-way street. Children should share their own dreams with their parents so that young and old can get to understand each otiier better.That said, one should not go too far. For some things are perhaps better left unsaid betweenparents and children. "Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry." At such mo?ments all that there is left to do is to look at one another and sigh, happy in each otiier's love.

You can't accomplish your goal of mastering the language unless you work at it for years. Well, it sounds as if I'm exag?gerating the difficulties, but the fact is I'm only telling the truth.2) The principal is somewhat disappointed with the performance of the children. From what she has gathered, some of the teaching staff have neglected their pupils. She has just announced that strict work regulations have been made and that they apply to both Chinese and overseas teachers.3) The teacher-directed and the child-directed approaches to teaching art represent two ex?tremes of opinion. Too many teacher-directed activities cannot be expected to effectively assisLchildren in learning because of the rigid structure. On the other hand, too many child-directed activities may see a curriculum that is totally unstructured and out of con?trol.There are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guided approach would be a superior wayAppendix I - 95 -to guide children's development.

Here I would like to make three relevant points.First, wide reading should be taken as a priority in the learning process, because it is through reading that we get the most language input. Next, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. On the one hand, rote learning/learning by rote is indeed of little help, but on the other hand, memorization/learning by heart with a good understanding will cer?tainly be of benefit/do good to us. With an enormous store of excellent essays in our heads, we will find it much easier to express ourselves in English. Finally, it is critical that we should put what we have learned into practice. By doing more reading, writing, listening and speaking, we will be able to accomplish the task of perfecting our English.Part III TextBComprehension Check1. c2. c3. d4. a5. c6. bTranslation(#ja Appendix III)Appendix I - 97 -Language Practice1. adopt3. plus5. furthermore7. annual9. pace11. on demand13. perspective 15. fell apart17. access19. deposit2. account4. ended up6. fund8. keeping track of10. intends12. devise14. undoubtedly16. protest18. resources20. from your point of viewPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksModel paperHow I Learn at CollegeI went to school in a small town near Chengdu and now I am studying law at Fudan University in Shanghai. Passing from one to the other you have to get used to many new things, not the least being the different way of learning.At school I found my timetable full throughout the day. One lesson came close on the heels of another with little time to call one's own. At university, in contrast, only a few hours of each day aretaken up with classes or lectures. In the time made available you are expected to learn on your own.When and where is up to you. At the same time what you are meant to learn shifts from memorizingmasses of facts to developing an ability to understand theories and present arguments. There are, ofcourse, still facts to be learned. One should not exaggerate the differences. Nevertheless, learning atuniversity certainly teaches me greater self-reliance and to think for myself. (169 words)- 9& - Appendix IUnit 2Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:You have heard about Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, haven't you? He came from a poor family, but rose to become one of the most fondly remembered presidents in his country's history. There are many stories about him. Here is one of them.When Abraham Lincoln was young he worked in a store. As a clerk he proved honest and efficient. One day a woman came into the store and bought some articles. They added up to two dollars and six and a quarter cents, or the young clerk thought they did. The bill was paid, and the woman was entirely satisfied. But the young store-keeper, not feeling quite sure as to the accuracy of his calculation, added up the items once more. To his dismay he found that the sum total should have been only two dollars. "I've made her pay six and a quarter cents too much," said Abe, disturbed. It was a very small sum, and many clerks would have dismissed it as such. But Abe was too conscien?tious to forget about the overcharge."The money must be paid back," he decided. This would have been easy enough had the woman lived just around the corner, but, as the young man knew, she lived two or three miles away. This, however, did not alter the matter. It was night, but he closed and locked the store, and walked to the home of his customer. Having arrived there, he explained the matter, paid over the six and a quarter cents, and returned satisfied. This anecdote won him a new name: Honest Abe.Appendix I - 99 -Part II Text Alext Organization1.Parts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1-4 The waiter was disappointed to find that the Richest Man in America led so simple a life.Part Two Paras 5-13 Being friendly, easy-going and never flashy, Walton carries on like plain folks and never wants any special treatment.Part Three Paras 14-22 With the Wal-Mart team in mind, Walton devotes himself heart and soul to making the business a great success.2.
