Supporting quotes: Where’s the passion today What’s the matter with college Students today are much more serious. Why aren’t Wordsworth’s lines true for the students today)8. Work in pairs and discuss the questions.(Examples for your reference)1.What do you think is the purpose of a university education Should it be an end in itself ora means to an endI certainly believe a university education is to train people to think and to create thoughtsand things with the best possible environment and facilities available. It has the duty to transmit theories, knowledge and skills to people and to society and train young people tocontribute to society. Meanwhile, it does have a responsibility to give students the necessary abilities to survive in the real world and to contribute to society. In this sense, it is a means to an end. In short, it should be both: you enjoy the journey ( the means) but you want to arrive at the destination ( the end), too.2.What factors influences your choice of university and the course you are doingThere is a combination of factors I consider for the choice of university and for my course.If I have achieved a high score for the university entrance exam, I would like to go to a university which is well-known for its tradition, the quality of courses offered, the staff, the learning environment and the location. And I will do some research to find out why a particular course is good. But most importantly, I would like to choose something I really love to learn and have a passion for; whether this course is popular or not is not my first consideration.3.If you had the chance to continue your studies abroad, what factors would influence yourchoice of destinationThis would depend on what course I would take. I would say the quality of the course, the teaching staff, and how the university and staff care about their students are the key factors I would consider when choosing my destination university. I understand that in some Western countries, the most famous universities may not necessarily offer the best learning environment to students. I heard that some famous professors in some research-focused universities hardly give lectures and tutorials to students.4.Why do young people protest more than old peopleI suppose young people have no fear. They have an ideology and strong energy and theybelieve they can change the world, just like that. On the other hand, I suppose young people are easier to be manipulated by others since their life experience is limited.5.Do you think today’s young people in China are very different from the previousgenerationsI think in some ways they are, because many of them are the only child of the family. Theyhave great pressure from their parents and grandparents to do well. They feel all the hopes of the family are on their shoulders. However, at the same time, some of them may be spoiled by the family, because their family tries to give them the best.Active reading (2)Page 7 Reading and understanding2.

Decide whether the sentences are critical or approving of today’s students.1. critical2. critical3. critical4. approving or critical5. critical or approving6. approving7. Look at the sentences from the passage and choose the best way to complete the sentences.1. b In the context, students’parents rebelled a lot and that generation is nostalgic about this. They expect the younger generation to rebel, too. This younger generation rebels by not rebelling, that is, they rebel against the expectation that they should rebel. This can be interpreted as rebelling in a different way.2. b The writer says it is difficult to see what postmodernism is, because it is against everything that came before it. From Paragraph 2 of the passage we can find that the writer says “almost by definition it can’t be defined” to mean it is hard to give a definition to postmodernism because different people use it to mean different things.8. Work in pairs and discuss the questions.(Examples for your reference)pare the two passages in the unit. Decide which ideas they have in common,and which passage is more critical of today’s students.·They are both about student life and experience. Both passages mention events of the 1960s or later and say something about revolution or protest. They both include nostalgia for the past (from the writer or from students’ parents) and both find something exciting about being a student (freedom and stimulation or the ideas of postmodernism).·Both the passages have critical points about today’s students. In Passage 1, the writer says students do not rebel or feel passion; they see study only as a means to an end. In Passage 2, the writer points out that students are cool and sleepy, not radical or rebelling. The second passage mitigates the criticism by the softening comment at the end that today’s students are writing the revolution in technology, whereas the first passage ends by lamenting that today’s students don’t feel theexcitement of change. On balance, the first passage is more critical.2.Say what you think today’s students in China have in common with the Americanstudents described in the passage. What can you find to criticize about students in China todayThis is hard to say because there are so many students in China --- more than in the US --- and we shouldn’t expect them to be all the same. Some of them are “sleepy and cool”, others are excited about what they study (like the American students in Passage 2); many see study as a means to an end (like the Americans in Passage 1). In general, many Chinese students are quieter, less critical, and more hardworking than American students and they want to get good jobs and help their family and their country --- but these aren’t criticism, are they3.The writer says there are no inspirational characters for students today. Do youagreeNot at all. We can find inspiration wherever we look! My teachers are really inspiring, so are Olympic gold medalists, Nobel Prize winners and some figures in history or fiction.4.Would you like to have been a student in the 1960s Why/ Why not1)Yes, it sounds exciting and free, but perhaps I wouldn’t study much in suchan atmosphere.2)Probably not, it sounds confusing and the people who are nostalgic for thattime probably forget the difficulties they had. I expect they see the pastwith rosy spectacles.Page 10 Language in use1. Complete the sentences with the words in brackets and the suffix –ment or –ism.1. government2.
