Have you ever known anyone famous? If so, you may have found that

they are remarkably similar to the rest of us. You may have even heard

them object to people saying there is anything different about them. "I'm really just a normal guy," protests an actor who has recently rocketed into

the spotlight. There is, of course, usually a brief period while they are popular when they actually start to believe they are as great as their worshipping fans suggest. They start to wear fancy clothes and talk as

if everyone should hear what they have to say. This period, however, does

not often last long. They fall back to reality as fast as they had

originally risen above it all. What will it feel like to soar to such

altitude and look down like an eagle from up high on everyone else? And what will it feel like to have flown so high only to wake from your

dream and realize you are only human? Some only see the cruelty in

losing something they had gained. They often make desperate attempts to regain what they lost. Often these efforts result in even greater pain. Some become bankrupt financially and emotionally. The only real winners are those who are happy to be back on the ground with the rest of us.

Unit 2A V

Have you ever heard of Jon Stewart? He is currently one of the most popular comics on television. His pessimistic view of the politics and government induces laughter, thought and even anger. He has a clever wit that often runs into collision with some government policies. His whole show is devoted to making fun of the nonsense that occurs in politics. But, what makes his show so successful is his ability to tell his jokes with intelligence.

"It's not just comedy," said one media expert. "His comments have a lot of influence over a very large audience in America. He has a lot of political power."

Recently Stewart was a guest on a news show about politics. The host journalist sparked a heated debate when he inquired about Stewart's responsibility to the American public. Stewart argued that while the content of the script for his show may be political in nature, his primary obligation is to entertain. The host journalist, however, emphasized the political influence of his performance. The argument ended up rousing anger from both parties. The incident underlined how sensitive some people can be to what others find funny. It also showed how important comedians have become to politics.

Unit 2A XIII

It is doubtful that there was a more successful comedy team in the 20th century than the Three Stooges. Larry, Moe, and Curly became famous for their many short movies featuring extraordinary comedy. In their movies, they found many ways of showing off funny actions. They attracted large audience and received a lot of applause. However, their movies also sparked criticism. Some people who didn't like the Three Stooges claimed they were too violent. In a TV interview Moe and Larry were roused to defend themselves. Their coarse brand, they said, shouldn't be taken seriously. It was just "cartoon violence".

The Stooges got their name and their start in an act called Ted Healy and his Stooges. This act began paving the way for their exceedingly successful career. Originally, the team was composed of Larry, Moe and Shemp. However, Shemp left for a career in more serious movies. When Shemp left, Curly took his place. Shemp's clumsy character returned in 1946 after Curly suffered a stroke.

Moe was the heart and soul of the team, acting as both their main comic force and their director. He was responsible for scripting many of the jokes. He'd also spend time providing his services as their business manager. In 1934 the team began a series of comedy shorts that numbered more than 200 when they ceased in 1958, which won them numerous fans. Despite all the criticism, the Three Stooges are undoubtedly the most famous comedy team that history ever invented.

Unit 3A V

What happens in America when someone becomes disabled and cannot do the kind of work they did in the past? If someone has been injured on the job, they are supposed to notify the medical worker, who would certify that there was a problem. Then, they may receive compensation from the company. If the company provides a(n) pension, the person may receive money monthly to make up for lost wages. The person who has been disabled may also take the company to court if safety was neglected at the workplace. This usually results in receipt of a payment to settle the dispute. In addition, all workplaces are required to pay money to the government for a program to take care of people disabled on the job. One provision in this program requires workplaces where more injuries occur to pay more money. For this reason companies that require heavy physical labor take safety very seriously. Most people misunderstand disability insurance. They think it is ridiculous that a person should get paid without working. In fact, this benefit is usually not enough to cover the rent and other bills of those who receive it. Most of the disabled still want to work, but recovery from the injury and training for other types of employment takes time.

Unit 3A XIII

The challenges faced by all child protection caseworkers are obvious. What is often not so obvious are the many rewards a caseworker career offers. People often ask why anybody in their right mind would want to be a child protection caseworker, habitually dealing with the most disadvantaged and troubled families in their community. Caseworkers routinely come across disturbing cases of child abuse and neglect, and clients who are not cooperative. Being a caseworker means being an agent of positive change, especially when the welfare sector is not just a job to you, but a professional vocation.

Child protection is a difficult and challenging career path to follow, but the rewards do exist. Many of our caseworkers choose this career path out of a desire to contribute to the community. To be part of a process can ultimately change a family's life, and caseworkers may witness their intervention equip a young person so that his or her future prospects are improved. Of course, this does not occur with every intervention. But when it happens, it is a(n) rewarding experience. And if you are wondering whether this experience makes the job worthwhile, then the answer is YES!

A good indicator of how outside people look at the caseworker career has been the feedback from university students. In 2006 there were 118 students on placements (实习) of caseworker career. Those students who completed their placements in child protection in 2006 told us about the great opportunity they have had to apply theory to practice; the many

chances of learning new skills and trying new tasks; the sound knowledge available through training; the willingness of caseworkers to talk about their experiences; and how valuable becoming familiar with different welfare services was to their future career.

Unit 5A V

How do you spend your time when you're alone? Do you turn up your music as loud as you can and listen to your own entertainment? Do you buy yourself the biggest steak you could find and sit down to a good meal? It has been my observation that these activities can be the best type of therapy for a troubled mind. It is crucial for humans to find some solitude in life. They must find some time to let the universe go spinning on without others' interruption. The portion of this world that

belongs to one person is increasingly becoming smaller. And whatever we do have we must share with others. Therefore, our ability to maintain a healthy balance between social interaction and personal pursuits is being challenged. Inspiration in solitude is a major commodity not only for poets and philosophers but for ordinary people as well. A healthy adult needs "alone-time"; time to reflect on what is truly important to them. When you are alone, you can stretch out your soul until it fills up the whole room, and use your freedom, moving at your own pace. However, it's important to stay rational. Don't forget that in order to be a healthy part of others' lives, you must yourself be healthy.

Unit 5A XIII

Have you ever experienced living alone by yourself?

Sunlight disappears, awakening me to the fact that I am alone. I am a(n) solitary observer on this isolated pond in the forest. Here I sit alone as the last light of day fades away. A lone wolf in the distance cries out. Then darkness creeps in around me. I return to my small hut to put the kettle on the stove and sit in solitude with a hot cup of tea until I want to sleep. The fire inside the stove is low, so I use the axe to split some wood that I throw in. It gets the fire going. I had made preparations to be here for the entire summer. However, after a month I am already lacking supplies. I didn't expect I would be tired of this experience so soon. In the cupboards there is nothing but noodles, and half a pint of wine. I have become so sick of noodles. Still, I have to force myself to choke them down. As I bring the teacup to my lips, I consider whether I should return to civilization to gather supplies or simply abandon my adventure. My observation is that self-reliance is a bit boring. I long to share a steak dinner with my friends, to watch my niece play in the summer's heat. Still my ego will not let me return to my family and friends just yet.

Unit 7A V

I have read The History and Geography of Human Genes by Luca Cavalli-Sforza but still have some questions. Even though these findings seemingly prove that races are essentially equal on a genetic level, there are differences unexplained. It was Darwin who first advanced the theory of natural selection. His notion was that certain characteristics that help that species survive are selected over generations by that species. The species does not consciously make the choice for gene preference. Instead, by surviving longer and being more fruitful, members of that species with the preferred genes gradually become the dominant breed. We may, as a species, all have commenced our existence in one location, but this was long long ago. Factors such as climate and other survival necessities have

created needs for evolution. I believe these factors have contributed to races evolving with different attributes. This explains the phenomena such as Asians receiving better science and math scores. It also sheds light on why there are so many excellent athletes from Africa. I understand that this is a particularly controversial statement.

Unit 7A XIII

Many Native Americans closely resemble Asians. This has led most scientists to exceedingly believe something about Native Americans. They think that most Native Americans descen d from a distant group of people. These people migrated from Siberia across the Bering Strait, between 17,000-11,000 years ago. The exact time and route is still under question. That is, it is still a(n) matter of debate. The time they traveled and the route they went is still being argued, as is whether it happened at all. Until recently, some anthropologists (人类学家) argued that the migration occurred 12,000 years ago. However, there are a number of difficulties with this theory—in particular, the presence of people in the Americas earlier than one might think. There is growing evidence of human presence in Brazil and Chile 11,500 years ago or earlier. There is also evidence of humans living in the Americas some 50,000 years ago. Therefore, other possibilities have been suggested.

They may have crossed the land bridge several thousand years earlier or they may have sailed along the western coast. However, some contest this theory. They think that humans lacked skills for sailing during this era.

Some consider the genetic and cultural evidence for an Asian origin overwhelming. It should be noted, however, that some other people are very upset at this idea. Many present-day Native Americans reject the above theories. They say those who put forward such theories have political motivation.They have their own traditional stories that offer accounts of where they came from. Their own stories claim that their origins are different from what scientists say. Those accounts, though, have mostly been ignored by scholars. Therefore, the origin of Americans still remains a mystery to be explored.

Unit 10A V

As a boss, I have dealt with all types of employees. The ones that are the least productive are those who are not adaptive. They may have high IQ points, but they just don't understand how to apply their theories to reality.

I recently read a book by Daniel Goleman, which suggested that the true measure of intelligence was not IQ, but rather EQ or Emotional Intelligence. This made a lot of sense to me. I have never been at the top

of my class, but I have always been efficient and worked well with other people. I have always taken good communication skills my number one priority. I think only testing how well a person solves complicated academic problems fails to take into account other abilities, which can be just as crucial and even more so to a person's accomplishments. In fact, many of the "idea people" have a real hard time getting their point across. They simply don't have the skills to demonstrate how valuable their idea might be. Sure, the world would be lost without these "idea people", but

I'd rather hire someone with superior EQ. The higher a person's EQ is, the better they will be able to implement the great ideas they have. The real trick is finding someone who combines both.

Unit 10A XIII

The concept of Emotional Intelligence (EQ or EI) was first defined by Peter Salovey and John Mayer, but it became widely popular after Daniel Goleman published his best-seller Emotional Intelligence in 1995. A definition of emotional intelligence is "Knowing how you and others feel and what to do about it".

The control center of our emotions is a small part of our brain called the amygdala (扁桃核). It scans incoming signals from our sensory organs (eyes, ears, etc.) and act as the emotional alarm center of our body. When it detects a condition that we hate, that we fear, or that could hurt us, it triggers an immediate response from the other parts of our brain that control our actions. The amygdala's extensive web of neural connections allows it,

in case of an emotional emergency, to take control of much of the rest of the brain, including the rational mind. This accounts for why we sometimes do things "without thinking", like closing our eyes just before a flying bug hits our face or losing our control during the course of a quarrel.

In fact, the importance of EQ for individual success has emerged as a hot topic over the past decade. Many organizations are beginning to realize the importance of EQ and have started to dentify the aspects of EQ that are most essential to success. Once this is done, they are able to use formal assessment tools to pick out strong candidates.

It is easy to see how EQ can impact performance as an individual contributor. Considering the increasing importance of teams in today's working world, it is obvious that any role that requires teamwork relies heavily on interpersonal insight and proficiency. Even the smartest, most experienced workers can have a(n) negative impact on team performance if they fail to find ways to get along with others. In a more solitary role like sales, individuals still need to demonstrate high EQ to recognize how a potential customer is feeling. Success often depends on the ability to identify the customer's needs. Those better equipped to deal with frustration and pressure may be less likely to make mistakes or become injured through poor decision-making.
