《英美报刊选读》

一、教学目的

通过本课程的学习,使学员对英美报刊有一个清晰的了解,认识英美报刊语言、文体、词汇、语法等基本特点,掌握英美报刊阅读的基本知识及技巧,为独立阅读英美报刊打下良好的基础。

二、教材特点

与该课程旧教材(第1版)相比,本教材具有以下特点:

1.为使学生改变以往依赖教师和英汉词典的学习习惯,培养他们独自排解疑难词语的能力,编者不但向他们推荐工具书,并教授他们使用方法;为使他们能加深对词汇的记忆,还介绍词法和重要词根及词缀。

2.为使学生掌握必要的新闻词语和扩大词汇量,本书在“新闻词语解说”中尽量结合课文,讲透疑难词语。此外还列出一些与这些词语或课文内容有关的课外词汇。

3.为使学生掌握必要的读报知识,本书在“背景知识”中尽量结合课文,介绍重要的并时常见诸报端的人物、党派和组织机构等,并举例说明其重要性。

4.为使学生对新闻写作有一个大致的认识,加深对课文的理解,编者较系统地说明标题的若干特点,对新闻体裁的分类、导语和写作特点及常语等做了简介。

三、教学内容

《英美报刊选读》为省开课程。

1.授课内容:重点为第1、3、4、5、6、8、13、15、17、19、20、21、24、28、30课(共15课),其它内容主要供自学。

2.课时安排:

a) 学员自学:2学时/周,共30学时学完15课。

b)面授辅导:4学时/次,共4次。每学时辅导一课,最后一学时复习。

3.作业:共四次,在湖北电大网站英语本科网页上下载,课后完成,交辅导教师批改,评分,作为平时成绩的主要依据。学员完成作业后,可浏览网页上的“答案及详解”,以加深理解,检查自己掌握的情况

四、教学建议

教师授课时应以学生为中心,鼓励学生自己去探索和获取知识。在上课时,可要求学生先回答每课后的练习题——Questions,使他们基本了解课文的主要内容。然后,再逐段或跳跃式选段对学生需要掌握的内容、新闻词语和背景知识进行阅读和问答式方式讲解。如果备课充分,学生的英语水平又高,教员可采用美英教员教授母语的方法,抛开课本或讲义,只讲有关课文的重点词语、背景知识和写作手法等。这样,学生除预习外,课后还要结合教员

在课堂上所讲的内容好好复习课文。这两种授课方式的好处是,使学生通过自学(指预习)和教师的指导,自己主动去掌握知识。与以教员为中心的灌输式教学方式相比,学生更能巩固所学,并使他们今后更能发挥学习潜能。此外,这也使有的教员摆脱了那种课文注释那么详细而觉得在课堂上没有多少可讲的被动地位和局面。当然,这只是本人的实践和看法。我相信在调动学生主动学习的积极性方面还有更多、更好的教学法。

The Newspaper Lead

The first paragraph of a news story is called the lead. It almost always gives you the story's main topic and most important facts. When you read a newspaper lead sentence, try to find the subject and main verb and note how the rest of the sentence adds information to the subject and main verb.

Anwar Sadat Assassinated at Cairo Military Review

CAIRO,October7-Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, a modern-day pharaoh who attempted to lead the Arab world toward a permanent Mideast peace with Isreal, was assassinated yesterday by a band of soldiers who attacked a military parade reviewing stand with automatic rifles and hand grenades.

Note that a great deal of information is included in a single writer has organized the sentence around the subject(Egyptian President Anwar Sadat)and main verb(was assassinate) very carefully.

The lead sentence usually does the following:

●Answers questions such as “who”“what”“where” “when”

“result”

●Adds background to help you better understand the story or

State where the source of the story comes from.

《英美报刊选读》辅导四

Read the News Story

In most news stories the most important facts will be found near the beginning-usually within the first two or three remainder of the story will give details explaining and clarifying the main points,or introducing new,but less important information.

The following is a formula for a typical news story;

●Paragraph One

The story's subject and most important facts.

●Paragraph Two

Important facts that the writer was unable to include in the lead;

Information to clarify the facts in the lead;

A particularly important quote.

●The rest of the story

Specific details to answer readers' questions;

Statements and opinions by people involved in the story or by outside observers;

Background information;

New,but less important facts.

Accordingly, when you read a news story, you are to:

●Read the beginning of the story very carefully because it contains

the most important fact.

●Try to look for more facts than those given in the lead.

●If you don't understand something at the beginning of a story, keep reading for a second(and perhaps a third) chance to understand.

Reading the Feature Story in a Newspaper

In most news stories the main points come very early and less impotant information comes is another kind of story_the feature story which follows a different format,the feature format.

Popular Magazines and Magazine Articles

Reading popular magazines is a good way to enlarge our vocabulary and learn a little bit about many topics in following is a list of major magazines in Britain and the United States.

●Magazines in Britain

The Economist Britain Today

The Spectator Contemporary Review

New Statesman London Magazine

New Scientist Observer Review

The Listener Punch

British Weekly

●Magazines in the United States

Time US News & World Report

Newsweek Reader's Digest

Life Business Weekly

Fortune Harper's

People American Review

The New Yorker

Very often we read magazines while traveling or relaxing of magazine articles do not expect their audience to spend too much time reading and try to make the main ideas stand out clearly. The task for the reader is to locate these main ideas quickly.

Popular magazine writers use various devices to capture a reader's attention:clever titles,short paragraphs and compound nouns to economize on in magazine often have characteristics similar to those found in news stories or articles found in are some feautures of magazine articles:

●An introductory paragraph summarize the main idea;

●The details are given in the rest of the articles;

●The author's view of the subject is directed to a particular audience but

may interest readers in general.

Reading Advertisements

Most magazines and newspapers contain advertisements that are designed to make us want the want us to believe that their product is important for a good life. Some advertisements even present viewpoints on timely newspaper ads try to influence the reader's opinions.

The language of advertising must be a language of immediate impact and rapid persuasion. No one is likely to spend much time deciding whether to read a printed advertisement or listen to a spoken one:If their attention is not attracted immediately and held firmly for the short amount of time necessary to absorb what is being said. Then the advertisement will have miserably. So the advertising language uses a basically simple grammatical structure and a richly suggestive and descriptive vocabulary.

Read the following ad.

Only the cream of the crop files

Our chefs buy only the freshest and most expensive ingredients for our kitchens.

Anywhere.

Because they believe that good food really is the way to a person's heart.

Obviously, there are many who would agree.

In fact, experienced travelers have rewarded Swissair with the greatest percentage of repeat business.

Which is not something we take lightly.

Because travelers who fly more, expect more.

So our chefs prepare five gourmet selections for every flight. Plus any one of 15 different special meals on request:

Hindu,Kosher,Moslem,diabetic,slat-free,vegetarian,dietetic…you name it.

Only the best will please Swissair passengers.

The cream of the crop.

Swissair has worldwide departures from New York, Boston, Chicago, Montreal and Toronto.

Call Swissair of your travel expert

SWISSAIR

In the above ad, a great deal is said in a few words. We see short sentences, vivid language, and many informal, popular expressions. They appeal to all of the senses.

When you read an advertisement, you may:

●Look for the hidden message; the way in which an advertiser uses words and pictures to influence readers opinions and attitudes.

●Read between the lines for meanings implied rather than clearly stated.

●Find the source of its appeal to the senses.

China Arrests Former Security Czar in Major Political Purge Dec. 6, 2014 From “Time” China's former Politburo Standing Committee Member Zhou Yongkang attends the closing ceremony of the National People's Congress (NPC) at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, March 14, 2012. Jason Lee—Reuters Zhou Yongkang faces serious corruption charges Chinese authorities arrested the nation‘s former security czar Zhou Yongkang, once considered the most feared man in China, just before midnight on Dec. 5–the first ever arrest of a member of the nation‘s ruling Politburo Standing Committee, retired or sitting. The 72-year-old Zhou was also expelled from the Chinese Communist Party. Zhou‘s suspected rapsheet is extensive, according to Xinhua, the Chinese state newswire: ―The [party‘s] investigation found that Zhou seriously violated the Party‘s political, organizational and confidentiality discipline. He took advantage of his posts to seek profits for others and accepted huge bribes personally and through his family, the statement said. He abused his power to help relatives, mistresses and friends make huge profits from operating businesses, resulting in serious losses of state-owned assets. Zhou leaked the Party‘s and country‘s secrets. He seriously violated self-disciplinary regulations and accepted a large amount of money and properties personally and through his family. Zhou committed adultery with a number of women and traded his power for sex and money.‖ For months, the noose had been tightening around Zhou, who retired from the Standing Committee in 2012 due to age limits. Dozens of his known associates and underlings were arrested in three of his previous spheres of influence: the nat ion‘s domestic security apparatus, which received more official funding than the Chinese military did; the highly lucrative state-owned oil industry; and the populous province of Sichuan. Zhou‘s family members, including his wife, brother and son, have bee n detained. Last year, Bo Xilai, a former Zhou political acolyte and ex-chief of Chongqing municipality, was sentenced to life imprisonment for corruption and other crimes. Over the summer, the party had placed Zhou under formal investigation for ―serious disciplinary violations,‖ a codeword for corruption. It was quite the comedown for a man who once controlled the nation‘s panopticon state security machine. Since taking office in 2012, China‘s President Xi Jinping has unleashed an anti-graft campaign that has resulted in thousands of arrests of government officials. Xi famously promised to nab both ―tigers and flies,‖ high-ranking leaders and the lowliest of communist cadres. And there was no mightier tiger than Zhou. Zhou will almost certainly be convicted, if past political investigations are any indication. But it‘s still going to take a lot more than midnight announcements to convince a skeptical public that graft won‘t flourish in China‘s future.

Unit2 Gender Issues Men turn to jobs women usually do 1.HOUSTON - Over the last decade, American men of all backgrounds have begun flocking to fields such as teaching, nursing and waiting tables that have long been the province of women. 2."The way I look at it is that anything, basically, that a woman can do, a guy can do," said Miguel Alquicira, who graduated from high school when construction and manufacturing jobs were scarce and became a dental assistant. 3.The trend began well before the crash,and appears to be driven by a variety of factors, including financial concerns, quality-of-life issues and a gradual erosion of g ender stereotypes. 4.In interviews, about two dozen men played down the economic considerations, saying that the stigma associated with choosing such jobs had faded, and that the jobs were appealing not just because they offered stable employment, but because they were more satisfying. 5."I.T. is just killing viruses and clearing paper jams all day," said Scott Kearney, 43, who tried information technology and other fields before becoming a nurse in the pediatric intensive care unit at Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston. 6.An analysis of United States census data by The New York Times shows that from 2000 to 2010, occupations that are more than 70 percent female accounted for almost a third of all job growth for men, double the share of the previous decade. 7.That does not mean that men are displacing women - those same jobs accounted for almost two-thirds of women's job growth. But in Texas, for example, the number of men who are registered nurses nearly doubled in that time period. 8.The shift includes low-wage jobs as well. Nationally, two-thirds more men were bank tellers, almost twice as many were receptionists and two-thirds more were waiting tables in 2010 than a decade earlier. 9.Even more striking is the type of men who are making the shift. From 1970 to 1990, according to a study by Mary Gatta, senior scholar at Wider Opportunities for Women, an organization based in Washington, D.C., and Patricia A. Roos, a sociologist at Rutgers University in New Jersey, men who took so-called pink-collar jobs tended to be foreign-born, non-English speakers with low education levels. 10.Now, though, the trend has spread among men of nearly all races and ages, more than a third of whom have a college degree. In fact, the shift is most pronounced among young, white, college-educated men like Charles Reed, a sixth-grade math teacher at Patrick Henry Middle School in Houston. 11.Mr. Reed, 25, intended to go to law school after a

Violence Can Do Nothing to Diminish Race Prejudice In some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has so come to be taken for granted as a means of solving differences, that it is not even questioned. There are countries where the white man imposes his rule by brute force; there are countries where the black man protests by setting fire to cities and by looting and pillaging. Important people on both sides, who would in other respects appear to be reasonable men, get up and calmly argue in favor of violence – as if it were a legitimate solution, like any other. What is really frightening, what really fills you with despair, is the realization that when it comes to the crunch, we have made no actual progress at

Lesson Nine. Iraq: Who won the war? Not the 90,000 Iraqi civilians or the 4,200 US and UK troops killed since 2003. The big winners are the money men who have made billions. Raymond Whitaker and Stephen Foley report 1.Five years ago today, Britain stood on the brink of war. On 16 March 2003, United Nations weapons inspec-tors were advised to leave Iraq within 48 hours, and the "shock and awe" bombing campaign began less than 100 hours later, on 20 March. The moment the neocons around President George Bush had worked so long for, aided by the moral fervour of Tony Blair, was about to arrive. 2."I believe demolishing Hussein's military power and liberating Iraq would be a cakewalk," Kenneth Adelman, a leading neocon, had said a few weeks before, and so it proved. Within barely a month, Saddam's bronze statue in Baghdad's Firdaus Square was scrap metal. But every other prediction by the Bush administration's hawks proved wrong. 3.No weapons of mass destruction –Britain's key justification for war –have been found. The Pentagon acknowledged last week that a review of more than 600,000 captured Iraqi documents showed "no evidence that Saddam Hussein's regime had any operational links with Osama bin Laden's al-Qa'ida terrorist network". 4.In 2008, there are still more American troops in Iraq than during the invasion, with no exit yet in sight. Britain's Ministry of Defence has just admitted that it has been unable to withdraw as many British troops as it planned – there are 4,000 still based just outside Basra, instead of the projected 2,500. So far 3,987 American soldiers and 197 British troops have died in Iraq. 5.So, five years on, who can be said to have won the war? Certainly not Iraqi civilians, at least 90,000 of whom have died violently since 2003, at the most conservative estimate. Other studies have multiplied that figure by five or six. Two million Iraqis have fled the country, and at least as many again are internally displaced. Baghdad households suffered power cuts of up to eight hours a day in Saddam's time; now they can expect less than eight hours of electricity a day on average. The US troop "surge" has cut the number of murders, but there are still 26 a day in the capital. The list goes on. 6.Nor have the eager promotors of the war, such as Mr Adelman, fared well. (By October 2006 he was admitting: "We're losing in Iraq.") The most arrogant of them all, Donald Rumsfeld, the ex-secretary of defence, was reluctantly dropped by Mr Bush in his second term. His former deputy, Paul Wolfowitz, who famously said that WMD had been used as the excuse for war because it was the only topic Washington's bureaucracy could agree on, was forced to resign as president of the World Bank after arranging a pay rise for his girlfriend. The Senate refused to confirm John Bolton
