3) To win.

【原文】

My hobby is sky-diving. Do you know what that is? I jump from an aeroplane and fall through the air. I open my parachute only when I‘m very close to the ground. Of course it‘s rather dangerous. Perhaps that‘s why I enjoy it. I think it‘s fun. Very few women do it. But we‘re just as good at it as men.

I‘m very interested in music. In my free time I play and listen to it. I can play the guitar and the flute. I enjoy all kinds of music but my favorite is folk music. Good folk music. I like classical music, too. But I prefer folk music. I‘d like to have my own group some day.

I love all kinds of sports but my favorite is tennis. But I don‘t enjoy watching it. I only enjoy playing it. And when I play I want to win. That‘s very important. I hate losing!

Task 2

【答案】

A.

1) F, 2) F, 3) T, 4) T

B.

She was taught where to sit in the aeroplane, how to jump out, how to guide the parachute, and how to land safely on the ground.

【原文】

I made my first parachute jump because I had read an article about it and I had always wanted to try it.

Before the jump I went to six training classes. I was taught where to sit in the aeroplane, how to jump out, how to guide the parachute, and how to land on the ground safely.

On the big day I was very nervous. The weather was cloudy, but the pilot thought it was all right, so the two of us (the instructor and I) got into the aeroplane with the pilot, and Helen Gray got into the other. (She wanted to take some parachuting photographs.) We took off and climbed to 1000 metres. I was really very frightened waiting for the big moment! Then the instructor told me to jump. I looked out of the open door and saw the ground below. It was the most terrifying moment of my life! I closed my eyes and jumped.

It was a great relief when the parachute opened! I looked up and saw the orange canopy. Below me was the landing area. It was really beautiful falling peacefully through the air. I landed well and waited for the instructor. Then we picked up our parachutes and went off to have a coffee and talk about the jump.

Parachuting is definitely more exciting than other things I have done before — like mountain climbing and sailing —and it‘s more fun, too. I‘m going to make my second jump next week.

【原文】

When I was seven years old, my family grew our first square watermelon. No one had ever seen a square watermelon before, so it became an instant celebrity. People visited our garden to see the unusual fruit, and I even took it to school for show-and-tell.

What‘s so great about square watermelons? Well, besi des their odd shape, the melons stack nicely, fit in the refrigerator, and won‘t roll off the table.

Whenever people ask how they can grow their own square watermelons, my dad tells them to ―use square seeds‖. Truthfully, though, my dad discovered the key to square fruit by accident.

Every summer we plant a small vegetable garden. To keep the young fruit from rotting on the moist ground, my dad props them on cinder blocks. In 1996, we returned from vacation to find a young melon stuck in the centre of a cinder block. The watermelon had grown inside the block until it was wedged too tightly to remove.

―We didn‘t want to kill it, so we just left it there,‖ my father remembers. ―At harvest time when we broke the cinder block, we found a perfectly healthy melon — but it was also perfectly square.‖

Since that summer my family has been growing square watermelons on purpose.

Task 5

【答案】

1) On the wall. In his bath.

2) They are constellations.

3) Texas.

4) Through writing, she could express herself and get her troubles out. She could write about things she is reluctant to say in front of people or some serious matters.

5) The first prize in inter-school competitions.

【原文】

My hobbies are collecting stickers and writing songs. I like collecting stickers because some are cool and if I collect enough I can fill up my wall with stickers. I also like writing songs, like ―Baby,Don‘t Leave Me‖, because I always think of them in the shower.

My favorite hobby is stargazing, because I think it is a challenge to look for the Big Dipper, Little Dipper, and all those other constellations. I think it is almost like doing a word search because you have to concentrate and look carefully for the constellations.

One of our favorite hobbies is looking for license plates of other states. So far, we have seen 22 different states, and we‘ve also seen Guam, a territory of the United States. We enjoy this hobby because we usually see Texas, so it‘s fun to see another kind of license plate.

I have many different hobbies. But my favorite hobby is writing. I have dreams of becoming an author, novelist, or journalist. I enjoy writing stories and poems the most. I love writing because there are so many different styles and because writing is the best way for me to express myself and to get my troubles out. I don‘t really like to talk in front of a lot of people or about serious matters. So that‘s where writing comes in handy.

Dancing is my favorite hobby. I have given three to four stage performances. I have also participated in the inter-school competitions, and I have won first prize for my school. Winning prizes and dancing on stage encourages me to learn more.

【原文】

David was a young man who worked in an office in a big city. His hobby was fishing, but he didn‘t often get a chance to practice it.

Then one summer he decided to have a holiday in a beautiful place in the mountains where there were a lot of streams. ―I ought to be able to have some good fishing there, ―he said to himself.

The first morning after he arrived, he walked to the nearest stream with his fishing rod. He saw an old man standing beside the water, so he asked him whether it was a private stream. The old man answered it was not, so David then said to him,‖Well, then it won‘t be a crime if I catch some fish here, will it?‖

―Oh, no.‖ answered the old man. ―It won‘t be a crime, but it will certainly be a miracle.‖

Joe stopped and watched the poor man for a few minutes. He saw that most of the people who passed by him believed he was mad.

Joe pitied the man, so after a few minutes he went up to him and said: ―Hello. Would you like to come into the bar and have a drink with me?‖

The fisherman was delighted to accept his offer and the two men went into the bar together. Joe bought the fisherman a few drinks, and finally said to him, ―You‘ve been fishing outside here, haven‘t you? How many did you manage to catch this morning, if I may ask?‖

―You are the eighth,‖ the fisherman answered merrily.

【原文】

Journalist: Er… roughly, when did you begin collecting badges?

Simpson: At my primary school, I think. The teachers used to give out badges to pupils who were particularly good at certain things. So I got a little blue badge with the word

―swimming‖ on it, and then another one I remember — it was green — which had the

word ―tidy‖ on it! Ha!

Journalist: And have you still got those badges in your collection?

Simpson: No… well, I‘ve got the swimming badge, but I think I was so untidy that I must have lost the tidy badge years ago!

Journalist: And you started collecting badges, then, from that, the age of about nine? Simpson: Er, yeah, I guess so… eight or nine or so. That‘s right. In those days — we‘re talking about the early 50s — there weren‘t so many cars around as there are today. So filling

stations didn‘t have so many customers. So the petrol companies used to give out

badges. I suppose they thought that kids whose parents had a car would keep asking

them to go to a particular filling station so that they could get another free badge. My

dad bought our first car in 1956 — I think it was a black Ford Popular—and every time

I went out with him in it I used to ask him to go to a different petrol station so that I

could add more to my growing badge collection. Actually, he was a very shy man, my

father, and I‘m sure he didn‘t like asking for free thingd.

Journalist: So petrol company badges were the first ones in your collection, weren‘t they? Simpson: After ―swimming‖ and ―tidy‖, yeah. But soon all sorts of companies started making badges to advertise their products, even cigarette companies. I‘ve got one in my

collection f or Will‘s Woodbines — they were the cheapest cigarettes in those days —

and on the badge, at the bottom, it says, ―Smoked by Millions‖— no health warnings

in those days.

Task 9

【答案】

1) In the United States a university professor is granted a few months of freedom from his duties approximately every seventh year for travel or advanced study. This period of freedom from teaching is called a ―sabbatical‖ leave.

2) Some of the usual duties of a college president are giving speeches, dealing with the government and taking part in various social activities.

3) Dr. Coleman started his sabbatical leave on a farm in Canada, hundreds of miles from his college. Getting up at 4:30 each morning, working 13 hours a day in fields and barns, he prepared himself physically for his next job, digging ditches, in Atlanta, Georgia. After that, the college president washed dishes in a Boston restaurant. During the last ten days of his leave, he worked as a garbage collector.

By doing the hard manual labor, Dr. Coleman wanted to remind himself of the common things about people. Therefore he could com to life with the fact that he was just the same as everyone else, not the ―powerful‖person he might think himself to be after being the college president for too long.

4) After two months of working with his hands, Coleman returned from his unusual sabbatical leave, convinced that the experience had been worthwhile. He had some good things to say about people who do hard physical work. He found that pride and satisfaction came chiefly in the form of praise from co-workers.

【原文】

In the United States a university professor is granted a few months of freedom from his duties approximately every seventh year for travel or advanced study. This period of freedom from teaching is called a ―sabbatical‖ leave.

Few sabbatical leaves are interesting enough to be described in national newspapers and magazines. Recently, however, there was an exception. The public learned how Dr. John R. Coleman, president of Haverford College, had spent his sabbatical leave.

―I wanted to get away from the world of words and politics and parties—the things a president does,‖ Dr. Coleman later explained to reporters. ―As a college president you begin to take yourself very seriously and to think you have power you don‘t. You forget things about people. I wanted to relearn things I‘d forgotten.‖

Telling no one of his plans, Dr. Coleman started his sabbatical leave on a farm in Canada, hundreds of miles from his college. Getting up at 4:30 each morning, working 13 hours a day in fields and barns, he prepared himself physically for his next job, digging ditches, in Atlanta, Georgia. After that, the college president washed dishes in a Boston restaurant. During the last ten days of his leave, he worked as a garbage collector.

This unusual sabbatical leave was conducted in great secrecy. Coleman telephoned his family once a week, ―just to let someone know where I was and that I was healthy.‖

None of his students or co-workers at Haverford College knew what their president was doing. On each job he avoided letting people know who he was. ―When people would ask me about myself, I‘d try to turn the conversation back to them,‖he explained. ―Some co-workers might have thought I was a little different, a little quiet maybe, but I doubt anyone knew I was a college president.‖

There was only one employer who sensed something unusual. ―At a restaurant in Boston, I had been on the job exactly one hour — I was washing dishes — when the boss came over and said, ?I‘m afraid you won‘t do.‘ and handed me two dollars. ―

―Immediately I asked him why, but he just said, ?It‘s not your work. Sorry.‘‖That was the first time in more than 30 years as a job holder that Coleman had heard such words. It helped him understand how a man of his age might feel when he suddenly realized he had lost his job.

After two months of working with his hands, Coleman returned from his unusual sabbatical leave, convinced that the experience had been worthwhile. He had some good things to say about people who do hard physical work. ―A lot of my co-workers would complain when the work was too heavy,‖ he said, ―but they‘d complain a lot more when there was nothing to do.‖He found that pride and satisfaction came chiefly in the form of praise from co-workers. Even though pay was important, what brought the greatest satisfaction was knowing that someone had noticed how a job was being done.

Task 10

【答案】

I love trees because they have many different shades of green, so many that it‘s almost impossible to count. When I paint a picture of a tree I use many shades of green and many more shades of brown. My favorite thing about trees is that they always seem to have a glow around them.

I love trees because they always smell so fresh and clean. I like to go to the nursery because I love the smell of trees — it‘s so refreshing. It‘s a glass of cool water on a hot day, or a damp cloth on a hot forehead.

One of my favorite things about trees is that they are fun to climb. I started climbing trees when I was very little. My dad taught me how to climb, along with some useful tips. I especially like to climb my grandpa‘s apple tree.

Yesterday morning Gretel went to the City of London. She wanted to see St. Paul's Cathedral. She was surprised to see so many Englishmen who looked alike. They were all wearing dark suits and bowler hats. They were all carrying umbrellas and newspapers. When she returned home she asked Mr clark about these strange creatures. "They must be typical English gentlemen," she said." I have often read about them and seen photographs of them. They all look as if they are wearing a uniform. Does the typical English gentleman still exist?" Mr. Clark laughed. "I've never thought about it," he answered." It's true that many of the men who work in the City of London still wear bowler hate and I suppose they are typical Englishmen. But look at this." Mr. Clark picked up a magazine and pointed at a photo of a young man. "He's just as typical, perhaps. It seems as if there is no such thing as a 'typical' Englishman. Do you know the English saying 'It takes all kinds to make a world'? That's true of all countries-including England." “Oh, just like the poem ‘If All the Seas Were One Sea’,”Gretel began to hum happily. If all the seas were one sea, what a great sea that would be!

The problems can be divided into three broad categories: psychological ,cultural and linguistic. The first two categories mainly affect those who come to study in Britain from Asia and Africa.I'll come to comment only briefy on these two categories and then spend most of the time looking at linguistic difficulties which apply to everyone. some of the common psychological problems really involve fear of unknown: for example,whether one's academic studies will be too difficult.Looking at the cultural problems,we can see that some of them are very practical nature, for example , arranging satisfactory accommodation.Others are less easy to define.

Unit 4 Task 1 【答案】 A. 1) They are farms that grow vegetables for city people to eat fresh. 2) It’s a farm that grow plants and flowers to sell. 3) They protect the plants from the cold in the winter but let them get plenty of light, so the plants can be grown all through the year. B. 1) canned, frozen 2) flowers, garden plants, home gardens, yards, window boxes 3) buildings, furniture, firewood 【原文】 Grain, vegetables and fruits are found on most farms. All of them are food for animals and people. Grain can be fed to animals just as it is harvested. But before people use them grains are usually made into flour or breakfast cereal. Bread, macaroni（通心粉）, and cereals（麦片）all come from grain. Tomatoes, beans, potatoes, beets（甜菜）, lettuce（生菜）, carrots and onions are field and garden vegetables. Can you think of any others Vegetables are good for people and for some animals such as pigs and rabbits. Farms that grow vegetables for city people to eat fresh are called truck farms. Truck farms are usually close to big cities. Each day hundreds of loads of fresh vegetables are brought to stores on the farmers' trucks. Without the truck farmers people in cities would not eat well. And without city people who eat fresh vegetables, the truck farmers would have no work. There are many kinds of fruit. Apples, pears, peaches, cherries, oranges, grapefruit, and berries are a few kinds. You will be able to think of other kinds that you like. Most fruit is grown on specialized farms. But many general farms have some fruit to use and sell also. Like vegetables, fruit is sold fresh in markets. But a large part of both fruit and vegetable crops is sent to factories to be canned or frozen. In warm parts of our country farmers grow cotton, rice, tobacco, sugar cane（甘蔗）, and peanuts. Specialized farms raise flowers and garden plants. They are sold to florists（花商）and to families for home gardens, or yards, or window boxes. A farm that grow plants and flowers to sell is called a nursery（苗圃）. Most nurseries have glass buildings, called hothouses or greenhouses. The hothouses are heated to protect the plants from cold in the winter but let them get plenty of light, so they can be grown all through the year. Some farms grow only trees. Some of these are Christmas tree farms. Others are large forests where trees are grown for their wood. The wood is used for buildings, furniture and firewood. Some tree farms grow only nut trees.

大学英语听力教学研究 摘要：在大学英语教学中，加强听力训练、确立听力训练的基础地位是大势所趋，是英语教学发展的需要，也是由英语教学的规律所决定的。本文从选择合适 的教材、坚持英语授课、培养学生语感、重视学生朗读、采用多种练习方式和强 化文化背景知识六个方面对提高英语听力教学质量、提高学生英语听力水平进行 了深入研究。 关键词：大学英语听力教学研究 听力训练，是大学英语教学必不可少的一个重要环节，是英语学习的重要手 段之一。听力训练能否搞好，直接影响到英语教学的质量，因为听觉练习同其他 练习相互制约、相互促进，应该同读、写、说训练同步展开。但是由于教学学时 的有限，英语学习的重点往往集中于语法学习和阅读理解上，听力训练往往受到 一定的制约，是一个薄弱环节，所以学生的听力往往很难达到所要求的程度。因此，改进大学英语听力教学，使学生达到预期的一定程度的学习目标，教师应做 好以下工作： 一、选择合适的教材 教师最重要的工作之一，就是为学生选择合适的听力材料。选择学生感兴趣的、语言程度适宜的教材，提供具体的指导并策划辅助活动等手段，都可以有效 鼓励学生提高听力水平。例如可以选用外研社出版的英语教材，其中的主题听力 材料比较适合中国学生的英语听力水平。课外听力材料最好从近几年出版的原版 英语出版物中采用贴近现实生活和反映世界发展的多种话题，如当前的教育状况、科技发展、环境问题、社会文化等一系列具有现实性的话题。要用精心挑选的听 力材料来吸引学生的注意力，满足他们从另一语音的视角看身边问题的好奇心， 从而激发他们的学习兴趣，使学生真正听有所乐、听有所得，最终通过提高听力 水平进一步促进英语综合技能的全面提高，形成英语学习的良性循环。 二、坚持英语授课 在课堂上，教师应坚持用英语提问题，学生用英语回答。针对本次课也可组 织自由发言、分组讨论和轮流发言等多种形式的英语讨论，最后，由教师进行总 结归纳，对学生经常犯的一些发音、语法方面的错误，及时予以纠正，既鼓励学 生敢说敢犯错误，又教会他们如何少犯错误。对于一些常用的习语和句子，应要 求学生在课堂上尽快掌握，其目的是帮助学生养成使用英语思考的良好习惯，同 时锻炼他们的英语反应能力。 三、培养学生的英语语感 大学英语听力教学的重点在于培养学生的语感。在授课过程中，教师应把语 感的提高和发展放在首位，坚持遵循语言实践，系统讲解48个国际音标，使学 生从中了解国际音标的特点，要求学生按规律熟练背诵元音音标和辅音音标，并 突出重点、难点，示范解析元音长短音和辅音相似的音符。通过示范比较，使学 生透彻地理解国际音标的功能和规律，能迅速地把所听词句用音标记下，从而掌 握正确的拼音能力，有效地领会交际信息中语言的整体结构，加强英语语感。 四、重视学生朗读 朗读是英语听力教学中一个不可缺少的环节。朗读，是指大声洪亮地宣读， 而非个人早已习惯的默读或低读。只有大声朗读，才可能使自己对已熟悉的词语 在声音中更加巩固，特别是对于原来比较陌生的词语在“视”、“听”觉的直接作用下，把该词的音、形、义在大脑中迅速地统一起来，逐步在听音和朗读过程中学

大学英语听力教学心得

大学英语听力教学心得 庞静 相对于其他正规院校的本科生来说，高职生的英语基础较差，平均水平不高。从英语听力课的教学来看，其不足主要表现为词汇量少，语音语感较差，知识面窄，独立进行分析判断能力不足，从而反应较慢。除此之外，高职生在英语听力学习方面的不足还表现为缺乏良好的英语听力的自我控制能力和逻辑思维能力，缺乏良好的听力习惯，缺乏应有的自学能力，这一切都无形中构成了高职生英语听力学习的障碍。在我上的大学英语听力的部分系部表现的特别明显。教材是教学的依据，教材的选用和利用对于教学来讲意义重大。虽说我们学校的大学英语听力选用了不同的教材——外语系选用的大学英语听力；人文系选用的英语教程；音乐美术系选用的实用英语。但由于系部不同班级的学生水平也参差不齐，所以因材施教显得尤为重要。 外语系学生相对英语成绩相对较好，大部分学生的学习积极性都比较高。处在这个竞争愈来愈激烈的社会中，他们强烈地感受到自身的不足，从而有着很高的学习积极性。但同时也有相当一部分同学由于种种原因或自卑不前，或自满松懈，或心不在焉，学习态度和学习成绩均和前者有着很大差距，形成两极分化。外语系选用的教材中每个单元由三部分组成：第一部分通常是语音练习，它对于纠正学生的发音很有帮助。教师在完成这一部分的听力练习之后可以接着让学生跟读，模仿，从单词到长句，循序渐进。同时讲解相应的发音规则。第二部分通常是对话和短文。由于部分学生基础较差，如果按照机械的程序从讲解词汇，介绍背景，播放录音直至完成练习，他们会感到十分吃力。于是我一般在讲完词汇和介绍完背景之后，先把所要播放的录音内容概述一下，当然语速要慢。这样可以给学生留下一定的适应时间，帮助他们理解接下来的内容。第三部分是口头练习，这一部分往往会被忽略，我认为这是十分可惜的。不妨让学生根据所听的内容编排对话，复述大意或进行主题讨论，将听与说结合，把听到的内容用自己的语言表达出来。语言是交流的工具，而交流则包涵了由听到说的过程。听是说的基础，听最终要服务于说。 人文系现在的英语教程听力没个单元有不同的话题，围绕这个话题从report 来引出话题，这部分比较简单。然后10个段对话，1个长对话，1个短文听力。这部分听完，再简单讲解一下基本上要花一节课的时间。对于学生的认知，45分钟都在不停的听，做题目无疑会走神，事倍功半，往往是开始20分钟效率特别高，然后就思想松散了听的有一句没一句的。休息5分钟后按照课本内容是听电影片段做填词。这部分联系简单但由于是原声电影说话的语速很快而且连读，省略都很多，加之听力疲劳。所以效果也不佳。我觉得还是听与说要结合交替进
