Text A An impressive English lesson
Ex1 Understanding the text
1Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules
2The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account however what the student could do was only one single utterance whoa without any any specific comment
3Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language
4Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with
5He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs
6Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before
7The author uses road mapand carto describe grammar and vocabulary Hereroad mapis considered as grammar and caras vocabulary
8Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure the interjectionwhoareflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student though in two different situations and with two different feelings

Some bookworms in my dormitory often spend hours reading their Bible Practical English Grammar and do a lot of exercises in that book but I don’t care about it at all My assumption is since I have never learned Chinese grammar what’s the sense of learning English grammar In fact English grammar has always been a big headache to me
English grammar is very complicated because unlike Chinese there are many verb tenses Even stranger than verb tenses English grammar also contains something very confusing For example I don’t remember how many times my middle school teacher tried toimposethe differences between used to and be used to on us Sometimes he would go on with the explanation for 20 minutes or so He even summarized the differences by listing three or four points for us to memorize However they could never stay in my head I don’t remember how many times I got it wrong with the sentences containing used to or be used to on my exams I was really confused with these two phrasesand I can never get them right
In brief I’m allergic to learning English grammar Curiously I just wonder if the native speakers of English have a microcomputer in their brain to help them utter the two phrases promptly with just a click of their brain mouse

even though it is important of the students to have a deep understanding of the texts it doesn’t make any sense to read texts word for word from the beginning to the end
as it is a matter of little importance to us it doesn’t make much sense to argue out which is wrong or right or which is better or worse
it makes no sense to compel children to obey their parents instead we should try to tell them what is right and what is wrong

Unit 2 CollegeThe ladder to success
Text A The humanitiesOut of date
Reading Comprehension
1 because English or history majors are considered less competitive when the job market is shrinking and they have to study something that can help them more easily locate their future jobs
2 because as the tuition is climbing higher and higher many students have run away from studying the humanities and toward hard skills that they think will lead to employment
3 since more students are now taking joboriented courses libraries where students of liberal arts used to study are getting less popular than before in contrast labs are getting more eyecatching because students of science and engineering do experiments and research there
4 because this inner drive that can be either constructive or destructive is so mysterious and powerful that it has attracted many people to speculate on it From ancient times these men and women developed artistic languages in the form of story music myth painting architecture sculpture landscape and traditions which from the very foundation of civilization
5 Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write makes you familiar with the language of emotion and the creative process and more importantly provides you with a wide scope of possibilities that are open to you
6 Because in modern life an ideal capacity for establishing one’s career is to have both technical knowledge and inner insight not just one without the other
7 Wellrounded human beings are those who have insight and understand the passions hopes and dreams common to all humanity
8 Since many people who once studied the humanities became famous in their career the author implies that if students spend more time studying the humanities they could surely become successful in the future as well

Unit 3 Discovery of a new life stage
Text A The humanitiesOut of date
Ex1
1 Because people in different life stages are confronted with different problems and setbacks and each group of people in a particular time period have their particular worries and pains
2The norm refers to the general consensus that as soon as students graduated from college they would enter adulthood and be able to find an ideal job leading to their career
3 They are recognized as a new life stage that comes after high school graduation continues through college and leads to starting a family and having a career
4 Because nowadays so many young people are following this new lifestyle that it has become a trend As long as the economic situation continues its long slide this new stage is unavoidable
5 Unlike their parents a large number of young people are now delaying marriage child bearing and even employment during their odyssey years
6 They often resent the pressure they’re feeling and keep a distance from their parents or even run away from home Many also resort to computer games iPods iPhones or iPads
7 Their parents feel more anxious and upset seeing their children’s odyssey years continue to stretch without a clear direction
8 The author thinks as people are getting to know the odyssey years better both parents and their children can tackle this phase better For parents they can understand their children more for children they can explore and discover themselves with a positive attitude

The odyssey years are certainly a very complicated phase of life for young people Not only do these young people need to overcome many difficulties they also have to face many challenges from their parents The differences between parents and children can be well observed in their completely different attitudes and views
First they differ in their attitude toward life Parents always wonder what has gone wrong with the new generation They feel that during their time young boys and girls were better behaved more obedient and had greater respect for elders Young people on the other hand feel that they are capable enough to learn on their own rather than lean heavily on the older generation for guidance Young people do not like to be spoonfed by their parents
The differences also appear in the way the two generations look at things For example the parents’ generation never understood Elvis and the Beatles Because they couldn’t understand what was going on they were frequently opposed to them and saw rock as the devil’s music Young people however are crazy about the modern music and would love to listen to it for a hundred times a day Wherever they go they’ll have their iPod with them
In conclusion it’s very difficult for parents and their youngsters to get along due to their distinctive attitudes and the way they view things To fill this gap both parents and their grown children need to be more understanding to each other

Text A College sweethearts
Ex 1
1 The author uses this sentence to tell her own love story She didn’t expect that she would end up marrying Butch He became her boyfriend just because of her wish to find a cute boyfriend She didn’t really want to marry him at the beginning
2 Because when she met up with Butch the first time he kept staring at her all night long He flattered her and fell in love with her at first sight He looked really wild or maybe even dangerous
3 Because Butch had a bad boy image which was very tempting to a lot of girls and his wild dynamic personality was a little frightening She didn’t know whether she could be getting along with him
4 Though she always had an excellent reputation in respect to her schoolwork she thought that her college life was dull with no fun In her opinion college was supposed to be a time of great learning and also of some fun
5 Because she was becoming more interested in him and she wanted to find out if she was the right date in the eyes of Butch thinking of herself as a traditional girl
6 It means that Butch didn’t want to do anything to change his bad situation The word fate here refers to the fact that Butch was going to be expelled from the university
7 Though Butch was wild and would sometimes display directly his love in front of her friends he was always a perfect gentleman at his core And they had a pure and responsible relationship for seven years
8 The author and her husband’s faithful journey of love that started with a causal attraction but bloomed into a mature love proves that romantic love can last long through the ups and downs in life

It is often said that whatever wealth one may have will be gone quickly if the person only spends However some people think the purpose of life is to enjoy moment so they spend all they have earned Even though Bryan and Peter are close friends their spending habits are very different
Bryan is very careful about using his pocket money He only spends money when it’s necessary For example when his pocket money is only 50he may spend 20 on necessary stationery for schoolwork He will try to deposit the remaining 30 in his savings account In his opinion though the amount is small it will help him for a possible rainy day since people never know what could happen in the future
Unlike Bryan Peter usually spends money at will He often purchases expensive electronic products such as an iPhone and iPad Sometimes he might buy himself an expensive brandname shirt or a pair of expensive brand name shoes Different from Byan he never deposits extra money in a bank after meeting his basic needs To him saving money in a bank is something silly because he believes that he can always earn big money after he gets a decent job in the
future
All in all Bryan and Peter are very different in the way they spend money Spending money wisely and saving extra money for future urgent needs enable students to manage their finance and fully concentrate on their study They will also derive great pleasure from the way they handle their money

1 An irrational behavior can be described as an action or opinion not based on adequate use of logic and reason
Be willing to pay much more for a cup of Starbucks coffee when there＇s cheaper equally good coffee across the street
Once a price is established in their minds they will compare other similar items to this price not only for the current but also for the future
Buy products they don＇t need just because they get something for free in the transaction
Do something just because some other people are doing the same thing
2 Ignorance People can be totally unaware about a situation yet form their own views and judgments They often tend to jump to conclusions based on rumors Emotions People take offense or get angry before the actual situation occurs They become anxious and harbor unrealistic expectations
Stress It is the main reason that causes physical as well as mental problems Stress creates feeling of anger irritation and frustration
Blind beliefs People live entirely on the lines that are drawn by others and do not have their own point of view They are too conscious about society and its reactions to them
3 Yes I＇m often irrational because of different kinds of stress uncertainty about my future and sensitivity to how people look at me
No I don＇t think I＇m irrational because I always use my logic and common sense to judge things and react to what has happened to me
Scripts
As the most intelligent animal on this earth we are supposed to behave in a rational way ie act according to logic and reason required in a situation But does that really happen Do we always behave rationally Certainly not There are a lot of people who behave irrationally causing problems to themselves as well as to others Irrational behavior is part of human nature but as MIT Professor Ariely has discovered people tend to behave irrationally in a predictable fashion Though we cannot explain the exact cause behind irrational behavior we know that it is a manner of behavior not based on logic and reasoning I would like to give you an example of irrational behavior If a person has heard about someone suffering from some disease he will start thinking that he may suffer from the same disease This is irrational
and illogical behavior I don＇t think this behavior is always intentional

1 He was imposing on his troops a necessary sacrifice to achieve victory over their opponents By doing this the soldiers would be more determined and concentrated on the battles
2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational human behavior when making a decision such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open
3 The experiment enabled people to see why it＇s always so hard for them to say NO to any opportunities that came to them In everyday life people just give excuses to keep options open
4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors
5 Because we can see that the students didn＇t really focus on ensuring future cash earnings What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close
6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly not like the ones on the computer in the experiment people don＇t really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little
7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking reduce options delegate tasks to others and even give away ideas to others to pursue
8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attention in a more concentrated fashion They will have more with fewer carefully chosen options

There are a lot of people who behave irrationally causing problems to themselves as well as to others It＇s hard to analyze the exact causes behind irrational behavior but we know that it is a manner of behavior that is not based on logic and reasoning Irrational behavior is caused by various factors but two stand out
The first main factor that contributes to irrational behavior is uncontrolled emotions Irrational people take offense or get angry before the actual situation occurs They become anxious and express exaggerated emotions such as crying and shouting They have unrealistic expectations expecting everyone to like them and if someone does not they feel angry and neglected It is fairly common for people to show such signs of irrationality
Too much stress can also lead to irrational behavior In fact these days stress is the major cause of physical as well as mental problems Stress creates feelings of anger irritation and frustration For instance when you spend a stressful day in the office it makes you anxious You start releasing your frustration or stress by screaming at your family members for small reasons like a badly prepared meal That day you feel everything is wrong
In summary uncontrolled emotions and too much stress can result in irrational behavior To behave rationally is not an easy job because the behavior is internalized However to discover the source of your irrationality will help you behave more rationally

3 The public barely watches convinced that the issue has no significance to them while the senator and politicians continue to give way to the lobbying of animal rights activists
4 The author does not really admit their mistake but the tone is apparently ironic criticizing that the physicians were too soft to respond to the animal rights activists
5 Life is cruel to both animals and human beings if the physician don’t create an animal model of the problem they have to do experiments on human beings or the medical knowledge will remain static
6 Drugs to cure infection will remain undiscovered surgical and diagnostic techniques will remain undeveloped and fundamental biological processes will remain mysteries
7 Because protection from serious sickness and drugs as well as most complex surgical procedures were initially developed in animals instead of human beings
8 If the more radical members of this movement are successful in threatening further research their efforts will bring about a tragedy that will cost the lives of many human beings

Text A An impressive English lesson
Ex1 Understanding the text
1Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules
2The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account however what the student could do was only one single utterance whoa without any any specific comment
3Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language
4Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with
5He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs
6Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before
7The author uses road mapand carto describe grammar and vocabulary Hereroad mapis considered as grammar and caras vocabulary
8Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure the interjectionwhoareflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student though in two different situations and with two different feelings

Some bookworms in my dormitory often spend hours reading their Bible Practical English Grammar and do a lot of exercises in that book but I don’t care about it at all My assumption is since I have never learned Chinese grammar what’s the sense of learning English grammar In fact English grammar has always been a big headache to me
English grammar is very complicated because unlike Chinese there are many verb tenses Even stranger than verb tenses English grammar also contains something very confusing For example I don’t remember how many times my middle school teacher tried toimposethe differences between used to and be used to on us Sometimes he would go on with the explanation for 20 minutes or so He even summarized the differences by listing three or four points for us to memorize However they could never stay in my head I don’t remember how many times I got it wrong with the sentences containing used to or be used to on my exams I was really confused with these two phrasesand I can never get them right
In brief I’m allergic to learning English grammar Curiously I just wonder if the native speakers of English have a microcomputer in their brain to help them utter the two phrases promptly with just a click of their brain mouse

it makes no sense to compel children to obey their parents instead we should try to tell them what is right and what is wrong

Unit 2 CollegeThe ladder to success
Text A The humanitiesOut of date
Reading Comprehension
1 because English or history majors are considered less competitive when the job market is shrinking and they have to study something that can help them more easily locate their future jobs
2 because as the tuition is climbing higher and higher many students have run away from studying the humanities and toward hard skills that they think will lead to employment
3 since more students are now taking joboriented courses libraries where students of liberal arts used to study are getting less popular than before in contrast labs are getting more eyecatching because students of science and engineering do experiments and research there
4 because this inner drive that can be either constructive or destructive is so mysterious and powerful that it has attracted many people to speculate on it From ancient times these men and women developed artistic languages in the form of story music myth painting architecture sculpture landscape and traditions which from the very foundation of civilization
5 Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write makes you familiar with the language of emotion and the creative process and more importantly provides you with a wide scope of possibilities that are open to you
6 Because in modern life an ideal capacity for establishing one’s career is to have both technical knowledge and inner insight not just one without the other
7 Wellrounded human beings are those who have insight and understand the passions hopes and dreams common to all humanity
8 Since many people who once studied the humanities became famous in their career the author implies that if students spend more time studying the humanities they could surely become successful in the future as well

Unit 3 Discovery of a new life stage
Text A The humanitiesOut of date
Ex1
1 Because people in different life stages are confronted with different problems and setbacks and each group of people in a particular time period have their particular worries and pains
2The norm refers to the general consensus that as soon as students graduated from college they would enter adulthood and be able to find an ideal job leading to their career
3 They are recognized as a new life stage that comes after high school graduation continues through college and leads to starting a family and having a career
4 Because nowadays so many young people are following this new lifestyle that it has become a trend As long as the economic situation continues its long slide this new stage is unavoidable
5 Unlike their parents a large number of young people are now delaying marriage child bearing and even employment during their odyssey years
6 They often resent the pressure they’re feeling and keep a distance from their parents or even run away from home Many also resort to computer games iPods iPhones or iPads
7 Their parents feel more anxious and upset seeing their children’s odyssey years continue to stretch without a clear direction
8 The author thinks as people are getting to know the odyssey years better both parents and their children can tackle this phase better For parents they can understand their children more for children they can explore and discover themselves with a positive attitude

The odyssey years are certainly a very complicated phase of life for young people Not only do these young people need to overcome many difficulties they also have to face many challenges from their parents The differences between parents and children can be well observed in their completely different attitudes and views
First they differ in their attitude toward life Parents always wonder what has gone wrong with the new generation They feel that during their time young boys and girls were better behaved more obedient and had greater respect for elders Young people on the other hand feel that they are capable enough to learn on their own rather than lean heavily on the older generation for guidance Young people do not like to be spoonfed by their parents
The differences also appear in the way the two generations look at things For example the parents’ generation never understood Elvis and the Beatles Because they couldn’t understand what was going on they were frequently opposed to them and saw rock as the devil’s music Young people however are crazy about the modern music and would love to listen to it for a hundred times a day Wherever they go they’ll have their iPod with them
In conclusion it’s very difficult for parents and their youngsters to get along due to their distinctive attitudes and the way they view things To fill this gap both parents and their grown children need to be more understanding to each other

Unit 4 Dance with love
Text A College sweethearts
Ex 1
1 The author uses this sentence to tell her own love story She didn’t expect that she would end up marrying Butch He became her boyfriend just because of her wish to find a cute boyfriend She didn’t really want to marry him at the beginning
2 Because when she met up with Butch the first time he kept staring at her all night long He flattered her and fell in love with her at first sight He looked really wild or maybe even dangerous
3 Because Butch had a bad boy image which was very tempting to a lot of girls and his wild dynamic personality was a little frightening She didn’t know whether she could be getting along with him
4 Though she always had an excellent reputation in respect to her schoolwork she thought that her college life was dull with no fun In her opinion college was supposed to be a time of great learning and also of some fun
5 Because she was becoming more interested in him and she wanted to find out if she was the right date in the eyes of Butch thinking of herself as a traditional girl
6 It means that Butch didn’t want to do anything to change his bad situation The word fate here refers to the fact that Butch was going to be expelled from the university
7 Though Butch was wild and would sometimes display directly his love in front of her friends he was always a perfect gentleman at his core And they had a pure and responsible relationship for seven years
8 The author and her husband’s faithful journey of love that started with a causal attraction but bloomed into a mature love proves that romantic love can last long through the ups and downs in life

It is often said that whatever wealth one may have will be gone quickly if the person only spends However some people think the purpose of life is to enjoy moment so they spend all they have earned Even though Bryan and Peter are close friends their spending habits are very different
Bryan is very careful about using his pocket money He only spends money when it’s necessary For example when his pocket money is only 50he may spend 20 on necessary stationery for schoolwork He will try to deposit the remaining 30 in his savings account In his opinion though the amount is small it will help him for a possible rainy day since people never know what could happen in the future
Unlike Bryan Peter usually spends money at will He often purchases expensive electronic products such as an iPhone and iPad Sometimes he might buy himself an expensive brandname shirt or a pair of expensive brand name shoes Different from Byan he never deposits extra money in a bank after meeting his basic needs To him saving money in a bank is something silly because he believes that he can always earn big money after he gets a decent job in the
future
All in all Bryan and Peter are very different in the way they spend money Spending money wisely and saving extra money for future urgent needs enable students to manage their finance and fully concentrate on their study They will also derive great pleasure from the way they handle their money

1 An irrational behavior can be described as an action or opinion not based on adequate use of logic and reason
Be willing to pay much more for a cup of Starbucks coffee when there＇s cheaper equally good coffee across the street
Once a price is established in their minds they will compare other similar items to this price not only for the current but also for the future
Buy products they don＇t need just because they get something for free in the transaction
Do something just because some other people are doing the same thing
2 Ignorance People can be totally unaware about a situation yet form their own views and judgments They often tend to jump to conclusions based on rumors Emotions People take offense or get angry before the actual situation occurs They become anxious and harbor unrealistic expectations
Stress It is the main reason that causes physical as well as mental problems Stress creates feeling of anger irritation and frustration
Blind beliefs People live entirely on the lines that are drawn by others and do not have their own point of view They are too conscious about society and its reactions to them
3 Yes I＇m often irrational because of different kinds of stress uncertainty about my future and sensitivity to how people look at me
No I don＇t think I＇m irrational because I always use my logic and common sense to judge things and react to what has happened to me
Scripts
As the most intelligent animal on this earth we are supposed to behave in a rational way ie act according to logic and reason required in a situation But does that really happen Do we always behave rationally Certainly not There are a lot of people who behave irrationally causing problems to themselves as well as to others Irrational behavior is part of human nature but as MIT Professor Ariely has discovered people tend to behave irrationally in a predictable fashion Though we cannot explain the exact cause behind irrational behavior we know that it is a manner of behavior not based on logic and reasoning I would like to give you an example of irrational behavior If a person has heard about someone suffering from some disease he will start thinking that he may suffer from the same disease This is irrational
and illogical behavior I don＇t think this behavior is always intentional

1 He was imposing on his troops a necessary sacrifice to achieve victory over their opponents By doing this the soldiers would be more determined and concentrated on the battles
2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational human behavior when making a decision such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open
3 The experiment enabled people to see why it＇s always so hard for them to say NO to any opportunities that came to them In everyday life people just give excuses to keep options open
4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors
5 Because we can see that the students didn＇t really focus on ensuring future cash earnings What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close
6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly not like the ones on the computer in the experiment people don＇t really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little
7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking reduce options delegate tasks to others and even give away ideas to others to pursue
8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attention in a more concentrated fashion They will have more with fewer carefully chosen options

There are a lot of people who behave irrationally causing problems to themselves as well as to others It＇s hard to analyze the exact causes behind irrational behavior but we know that it is a manner of behavior that is not based on logic and reasoning Irrational behavior is caused by various factors but two stand out
The first main factor that contributes to irrational behavior is uncontrolled emotions Irrational people take offense or get angry before the actual situation occurs They become anxious and express exaggerated emotions such as crying and shouting They have unrealistic expectations expecting everyone to like them and if someone does not they feel angry and neglected It is fairly common for people to show such signs of irrationality
Too much stress can also lead to irrational behavior In fact these days stress is the major cause of physical as well as mental problems Stress creates feelings of anger irritation and frustration For instance when you spend a stressful day in the office it makes you anxious You start releasing your frustration or stress by screaming at your family members for small reasons like a badly prepared meal That day you feel everything is wrong
In summary uncontrolled emotions and too much stress can result in irrational behavior To behave rationally is not an easy job because the behavior is internalized However to discover the source of your irrationality will help you behave more rationally
