In-Class Reading: Athletes Should Be Role Models

1. Read the new words and point out some important words.

2.Give students fifteen minutes to read the passage Athletes Should Be Role Models.

3. Look over exercise 1 to get familiar with the text structure.

4. Explain some important/difficult sentences:

词were用了虚拟语气，而进行时则起强调作用。更为常用的表达方式应为If I were to decide…

就像“make, let”一样，后面要接不带to的不定时。因此不能翻译成“有”。

This is at least partly due to what is known as language interference, meaning that the linguistic patterns of our first language interfere with those of the second because no two languages have exactly the same sounds and grammatical structures. The English language has a very large vocabulary because it has incorporated words from many other languages over the centuries. This is nowhere more apparent than in its color words. For example, there are many words that express the color “purple”, describing its different shades and hues: mauve, violet, lilac, or lavender. An interesting linguistic gender difference among native speakers of English is the likelihood of women using these color terms to differentiate between shades of purple, whereas, men will be satisfied with the one word “purple”. This is true of other color words too.

原版英语教材与国内自编教材之比较

龙源期刊网 https://www.sodocs.net/doc/0215265152.html, 原版英语教材与国内自编教材之比较 作者：叶文彦 来源：《速读·下旬》2019年第09期 ◆摘; 要：本文先介绍了英语原版教材在中国高校的使用现状，又从教学目标、教学理念和选材三方面对原版英语教材和国内自编教材进行了比较，最后提出应该基于本土情况对原版英语教材进行一定程度的本地化。 ◆关键词：原版英语教材;国内自编教材 近年来，越来越多的高校开始关注原版英语教材，因其地道的语言和独特的英语文化等特点，许多教师在课堂上广泛地运用这类教材。 一、原版英语教材在中国高校使用的现状 伴随着全球化的深入，中国高校对于英语的教学要求也在逐年提升。高校不仅要培养具备英语基础知识的人才，还立足于培养出能熟练运用专门用途英语的人才。教育部也多次出台文件强调双语教学在高校教学中的重要性，更规定了大学课程中使用双语教学的比例。而教材对于双语教学有着至关重要的作用，教材的质量很大程度上决定了该课程的教学质量。现今高校双语教育的教材多可归为两个类型，即原版英语教材和国内自编教材。众多著名高校纷纷采用原版英语教材教学，多的数目甚至高达百门。课时在实际操作中还是暴露出了一些问题。一方面，很多原版教材难度较高，学生因而产生畏难情绪，与母国文化相比有较大的文化差异，挑战了学生的成长价值觀，另一方面国内自编教材又常常过于简单，有教条化的问题，无法起到实战指导的作用。整体来说，原版英语教材确有其优势，例如英语语言的准确性，教授知识的快速更迭以及纯正西方文化的传播。而且国内自编教材的出版周期要比原版英语教材场，从内容的时效性看就不是特别强。所以在高校课堂中有选择地使用经过评估的高质量原版英语教材是可行的，它既能帮助学生提高英语水平，又能有效提升教学的品质。可是，原版英语教材也存在一些问题，例如文化差异、知识产权、教学理念的冲突等等，所以比较恰当的做法是在比较原版英语教材和国内自编教材并进行分析的基础上对原版教材做一定程度的本土化。 二、原版英语教材与国内自编教材之比较 1.教学目标差异 原版英语教材的教学目标是培养学生实际运用语言的能力，教材编写时往往遵循交际教学法的原则，会呈现出较浓厚的交际分为。比如，经济科学出版社出版的《新编剑桥商务英语》就是属于这个类别，该教材自引进面世以来在我国广受欢迎，成为了最经典的商务英语教材之一。《新编剑桥商务英语》编写的主要目的就是让学生在提高语言能力的基础之上，以交互的

Part 1 Listening 1 Ex1: C A D C B Ex2: 1) approaching 2) left 3) toilet 4) locked 5) Tickets please 6) pushed 7) stamped Scripts: Two Belgians and two Dutchmen traveled regularly to work on the same train. After a while the Dutchmen saw that the two Belgians only had one ticket between them and asked how they managed to achieve this. The Belgians explained that when they heard the conductor approaching from the other end of the carriage, the two of them left their seats, went into the toilet and locked the door. When the conductor knocked on the toilet door, saying, "Tickets, please!", they pushed one ticket under the door. It was then stamped and pushed back under the door again. The Dutchmen thought this was a very good idea and the following morning bought one ticket between them. When they got to their carriage there was only one Belgian. They told him what they had done and asked the Belgian if he had a ticket as he was traveling on his own. The Belgian said he did not have a ticket at all and when they asked how he proposed to manage to travel free of charge, he told them they would have to wait and see until the conductor arrived, but he had no doubt that he would manage it without difficulty. As soon as they heard the conductor coming, the two Dutchmen immediately went to the toilet and locked the door. A few moments later, the Belgian followed them down the corridor and knocked on the toilet door, saying, "Tickets, please!" One ticket appeared under the door. Questions: 1. Where did the story take place 2. What did the two Dutchmen want to know from the two Belgians 3. How did the Dutchmen feel about the Belgians' behavior 4. What did the Belgian do when asked if he had a ticket 5. Who finally managed to travel free of charge Listening 2 Ex1: 1 department store 2. attend college 3. difficult 4. physical education 5. terrified Ex2: FTTFT Scripts: My name is Atsuko Saeki. I work as a salesclerk in a big department store in Fuji, Japan. Six years ago when I was 21 years old, I went to California to attend college. Life in the United States was much more difficult than I had ever imagined. It wasn't like the descriptions I had read in my textbooks. People often seemed tense and so I felt very alone. One of my hardest classes was physical education. We often played volleyball. All the other students were good at it, but I clearly wasn't. One afternoon, the teacher asked me to hit the ball to my classmates. For most people, this would be easy but I was terrified that I would make a fool of myself. When one of the boys on my team saw how nervous I was, he walked up to me and whispered, "Come on, you can do that." You can't imagine how those words of encouragement made me feel. I was so happy that I almost cried. I managed to hit the ball and I think I thanked the young man, but I'm not sure. I have never forgotten his kind words of encouragement. He probably doesn't even remember what he said to me or how much his kindness meant to me. Whenever things aren't going well, I think of those simple words of encouragement: Come on, you can do that.
