Would you like to hear a story? Today I'll tell you a story that I heard about a cave in which a religious man was walled up. The cave was at the bottom of a rock wall. It had neither window nor door. Inside there was a stream which came out of a small opening under the wall which closed the cave. Three years ago this religious man had come here. He had promised to separate himself from the world of people and go forever into the darkness of the cave. On the day he went into the cave, all his friends, who all belonged to the same religious community as he did, came together to say goodbye and walk him to the cave. Silently they moved, step by step through the valley, as if they wanted to lengthen (延长) the last minutes in which this man could still see the sun, light, and colors. He knew he was leaving the world forever. He would never again see the mountains, and he would die in his cave, forgotten by all. After the entrance of the cave had been walled up, the light disappeared. He was alone and would never hear a human voice again. When he spoke, there would be no one to listen to him, and when he called, nobody would answer. To his friends, who had buried him alive, he was already dead. The only connection between them was their duty to supply him with his daily food. This was pushed through the little opening under the wall. If the food had been eaten, they would know he was alive. If the food was not eaten for six days, the wall had to be broken open. This had already been done, when, three years ago, another man, who had spent twelve years in the cave, died. It was also done fifteen years ago, at the death of another man, who at the age of twenty entered the cave and lived there for forty years.

In this story the man lived in total darkness and under great difficulty, as many religious people do. But not all religious people are like this. In one place, for example, things are quite different. To my surprise, religious people in this other place live together in comfort, living in small rooms that are pleasant and clean. Each room provides air, water, and sun, and allows for exercise as well as time to think. These men, though still not a part of the outside world, are allowed to take with them into their room books and objects which are necessary for their daily life. Their time is carefully organized and divided between study and regular exercise. There is a little kitchen and a few pots and pans for them to heat their normal food. Next to the kitchen is a small bathroom, through which runs a very small stream. The main room is large, with plenty of space and a wide open window, called a skylight, above. On one side of the room there is a place for sitting and sleeping, and fuel is kept against the other walls. This is very important in that place, where hot tea is used for keeping one's body warm in a cold room. Fuel is not used for heating the room itself, because it is far too precious. These rooms are not at all like caves, though the name for them is Kyi Phug, which means "the happy cave".

你想听一个故事吗?今天我给大家讲一个故事,我听说一个山洞里有一个宗教的人被围起来了。那山洞是在一个岩石墙的底部。它既没有窗户也没有门。里面有一个小溪,从一个小洞口出来,在那封闭的洞里。三年前,这个虔诚的人来到这里。他曾许诺要把自己从世界中分离出来,然后永远进入山洞的黑暗中。一天,他走进山洞,所有的朋友,他都是和他一样的宗教团体,他走到了一起,说再见,然后带他去山洞。他们静静地走,一步一步通过山谷,

如果他们想要延长(延长)最后一分钟,这个人仍然可以看见太阳,光,和颜色。他知道他将永远离开这个世界。他再也不见山了,他就死在他的洞里,被所有人所遗忘。在山洞的入口被墙堵住后,光就消失了。他独自一人,再也听不到人的声音。当他说的时候,没有人听他说话,当他打电话时,没有人会回答。他的朋友,谁把他埋葬了,他已经死了。他们之间唯一的联系是他们的责任,为他提供日常食物。这是推通过在墙上的小开口。如果食物被吃了,他们就会知道他还活着。如果食物没有吃了六天,那就把墙打开了。三年前,另一个在山洞里呆了十二年的人,这已经完成了。这也是十五年前,另一个人的死,在二十岁的人进入了山洞,在那里住了四十年。

在这个故事里,这个人生活在黑暗中,在巨大的困难之下,许多宗教人士都这样做。但是并不是所有的宗教人士都喜欢这个。例如,在一个地方,事情是完全不同的。让我惊讶的是,在这个其他地方的宗教人士生活在舒适的生活中,生活在舒适和清洁的小房间里。每个房间都提供空气、水和太阳,并且允许运动以及时间来思考。这些人虽然还不是外部世界的一部分,但被允许带着他们进入他们的房间,他们的日常生活是必需的。他们的时间是精心组织,研究和定期锻炼之间的分歧。厨房里有一个小厨房,还有几个锅和锅给他们加热食物。厨房旁边是一个小的浴室,通过它运行一个非常小的流。主房很大,有足够的空间,有一扇敞开的窗户,上面有一个天窗。在房间的一边有一个地方坐着,睡觉,和燃料被保持对其他墙壁。这是非常重要的,在那个地方,在一个寒冷的房间里,热的茶是用来保持身体温暖的。燃料是不用于加热房间本身,因为它是太珍贵。这些房间是不一样的洞穴,虽然他们的名字是姬phug,意思是“幸福的洞穴”。

When it comes to the construction (建造) of a building, few people would argue about the importance of establishing a strong foundation. It's not different in building a business, a family, or a life. In 2000, we watched the failure of many Internet-based companies. One of the reasons for this is that these companies were built without solid foundations. A company needs more than just money and material to satisfy its basic needs; it also requires a firm base from which to build. The emphasis (重点) today is on instant satisfaction. But if we want to build something of value, something that will last, we must build a foundation that will support our goal. It takes effort and it takes

conviction, but the rewards are worth it. Keep Your Eyes on What You're Building There was once a man passing by a construction site. He stopped and asked one of the tradesmen what he was doing. The worker replied simply, "I'm laying bricks(砖), can't you see that?" The man watched a while longer and then asked another worker what he was doing. "I'm just earning a living," he replied. A third time the man asked a worker and the response was much different, "I'm building a beautiful church." No doubt the personal happiness and the quality of the work from the last man was much better than from the first two. And what about us? Are we just collecting a pay check, doing hard dull work —laying bricks? Or are we building churches? By staying focused on what we're building and seeing the task at hand as accomplishing that purpose, we'll gain greater satisfaction, our work will be lighter, and we'll create more excellence. Foundations Take Time I recently watched a building being built. (I must admit I was tempted to ask some of the workers what they were doing.) For months, there seemed to be little progress. There was plenty of dust, lots of activity, but very few signs that anything was really happening. That's because they were building the foundation—the foundation to support a great structure. And that takes time. The engineers, the head builders, and the owner certainly weren't standing around saying, "Where's the building? Why can't I see more progress?" They knew that a majority of the time to construct the building would be spent in laying the groundwork. Once the foundation is ready, the rest of the construction happens at fast speed. Even mistakes made in the superstructure (上层建筑) can be corrected without too much difficulty. But faults in the foundation CANNOT be easily repaired and will threaten the entire structure.

And why should what we build be any different? We need to put

strong foundations under our dreams, our businesses, and our relationships. I believe

that this is where many people struggle. They're too focused on the rewards and don't give enough attention to the hard work and careful planning required in building the substructure (基础建筑). They want to start putting up walls and bringing in the business too soon. And in the end, most fail because there is not the right support.

A strong foundation, built with good materials and a great deal of effort, will make your structure one that stands up to all attacks and fully supports your efforts.

当谈到建设(建造)一楼,很少有人会争辩说,关于建立一个坚实的基础的重要性。在建设一个企业,一个家庭,或生活中,这是没有什么不同。在2000,我们观看了许多互联网为基础的公司的失败。其中一个原因是,这些公司是建立没有坚实的基础。公司需要的不仅仅是金钱和物质来满足它的基本需求,它还需要一个坚实的基础来建立。重点(重点)今天是即时的满足。但是,如果我们想要建立一些有价值的东西,我们必须建立一个支持我们的目标的基础。它需要努力,它需要

信念,但回报是值得的。让你的眼睛看你正在建造的东西,曾经有一个人经过一个建筑工地。他停下来,一个商人他是做什么的问。工人只回答,“我在砌砖(砖),难道你不知道吗?”那人看了一会儿,然后又问他正在做什么。我只是谋生,“他回答说。第三次的人问一个工人和响应是非常不同的,“我正在建立一个美丽的教堂。”毫无疑问,个人幸福,从一个人的工作质量明显优于前两个。那我们呢?我们只是在收一张工资支票,做着辛苦枯燥的工作吗?或者是我们在建造教堂吗?我们将专注于建设和看到的任务,以实现这一目的,我们将获得更大的满意度,我们的工作将更轻,我们将创造更卓越。基金会花时间我最近看了一个正在建造的建筑物。(我必须承认,我很想问一下他们在做什么。)几个月,似乎有一点点进展。有很多灰尘,有很多的活动,但很少有迹象表明有什么事情真的发生了。那是因为他们正在为一个伟大的结构建立基础。这需要时间。工程师们,头上的建筑商和业主,当然没有站在周围说,“在那里的建设?为什么我不能看到更多的进步?”他们知道,大部分的时间来建造建筑物将花费在奠定基础。一旦基础准备好,其余的建设发生在快速。即使错误在上层建筑了(上层建筑)可以毫不费力的修正。但在基础上的故障不能很容易地修复,将威胁到整个结构。

为什么我们的建设是什么?我们需要把

在我们的梦想,我们的企业和我们的关系强大的基础。我相信这是很多人奋斗的地方。他们太专注于奖励和不给予足够的重视,在建筑结构所需要的努力和精心的规划(基础建筑)。他们想开始贴上墙,并在生意中带来太快。最后,大多数失败是因为没有正确的支持。一个强大的基础,建立了良好的材料和大量的努力,将使您的结构是一个站起来的所有攻击,并

充分支持您的努力。

Do you read as much as you'd like, or as many as you'd like of the books you're interested in? Are you aware that the time spent on today's reading prevents you from reading something else? Life is one of choices?make sure your choices take you in the direction you wish to go. My biggest recommendation (建议) to increase your reading rate is to attend a rapid reading course (sometimes called speed reading), but the single most important element is the on-going practice. If you want to try a few techniques on your own, here are a few key pointers, but you really need to attend a course to be pushed to significantly higher levels of competency, because only an external person can push you past the comfort zone of your eyes, your brain, and your current beliefs about your abilities. Some Rapid-reading Keys: Read with purpose. Don't read things you won't remember, and don't waste time reading things that won't further you in any way. However, many people read mindlessly, just because it's there! You should start with the end in mind. Have an expectation of success. See yourself reading at great speed. Fill your mind with a positive expectation of great deeds. Feel and imagine the power of the rapid flow of information into your mind. And hear the rapid flow of words just pouring into your brain. Preview and review the book. You can do it by scanning contents and other information at the front, as well as the back. Sit upright and hold the book at a comfortable position. Have good overhead light, fresh air, plenty of water, and a comfortable temperature. Use a visual guide. You may usually use your finger, or sometimes two fingers, which depends on the size of the print. This is where the training by an instructor is really useful (they won't let you get away with bad habits,

and they push you beyond your comfort level). One of the key elements of rapid reading is to use our finger at a very fast rate, running it down the page. We don't need to read every word in order to comprehend (理解) and keep the information. All we need is a large amount of text, and the sense is

gathered at lightening speed. Speed training. Go as fast as your hand can turn the pages, and don't worry that there seems to be practically no comprehension at this stage. The key is to extend the eye's capacity to absorb, and to strengthen your mind's belief that it can be done. Two hands are needed. With one hand run a finger down the page as fast as you can. At first you'll notice an occasional word or phrase will jump out at you, but not much else. That's fine—comprehension is not the goal at this stage. With the other hand, turn the pages as fast as you can go. Set a daily target for yourself—it might be to race through a thick book that you're interested to read. It might be to practice for a specified amount of time. Practice, practice, and practice. Magazines and newspapers are great to practice on. The columns (栏目) are thin, which helps you go even faster. Comprehension. You may think you're not absorbing much, but try this test. Choose a book you want to read. Each time you pick it up to read in your old style, first do the rapid run described above. You'll notice when you come to read in your slow way that in fact you already know, and can remember having seen, most of the key concepts. We call this a conscious convincer. Your subconscious needs reassurance (安心) that nothing is being lost, and that you have absorbed the information you need. Coupled with the rapid "preview", if you do wish to read slower, do it with a highlighter in your hand. Your ability to keep the material will be greatly enhanced, for you will have visited the information several times. You may still wish to read at a slower speed for enjoyment, or because you need to really absorb every word of an author for study purposes, but if every day you practice this technique, suddenly you'll find you really are reading and absorbing at a much faster rate.

你尽可能的阅读你喜欢的书,或者你感兴趣的书中的很多书?你知道在今天的阅读中所花的时间会妨碍你阅读其他的东西吗?生活是一种选择吗?确保你的选择将带你走向你想去的方向。我最大的推荐(建议)提高你的阅读速度是参加快速阅读课程(有时被称为快速阅读),但最重要的因素是不断的实践。如果你想试着自己用一些技巧,这里是一些关键的指针,但你真的需要参加一个课程是推显着较高水平的能力,因为只有外在的人可以把你过去的你的眼睛的舒适区,你的大脑,你目前的信念对你的能力。一些快速阅读键:阅读目的。不要读那些你不记得的东西,也不要浪费时间去读那些不会以任何方式来进一步你的东西。然而,许多人不读,只是因为它在那里!你应该开始与结束的想法。对成功有期待。看到自己的阅读速度很快。用积极的期待填满你的心。感觉和想象的力量的快速流动的信息,进入你的心。听到快速流动的话,只是涌入你的大脑。预习和复习书。你可以通过扫描内容和其他信息在前面,以及后面。坐直,把书拿舒服的位置。有良好的顶光、新鲜空气、充足的水和舒适的温度。使用视觉引导。你通常会用你的手指,或有时两根手指,这取决于打印的大小。这是一个教练的训练是非常有用的(他们不会让你远离坏习惯,他们把你超越你的舒适程度)。快速阅读的关键因素之一是用我们的手指在一个非常快的速度,运行它的页面。我们不需要读每一个字都理解为(理解)保持信息。我们所需要的是大量的文本,而这个意义是

聚集在闪电的速度。速度训练。像你的手一样快,你的手可以打开的网页,不要担心,似乎

有在这个阶段几乎没有理解。关键是要扩大眼睛的吸收能力,并加强你的思想的信念,它可以做到。两只手都需要。用一只手把一只手指快速的向下一个页面,你可以。起初你会注意到一个偶然的单词或短语会在你跳出来,但没有其他的。这是很好的理解,不是在这个阶段的目标。用另一只手,把网页翻到你可以去。为自己设定一个每日目标,可能是通过一本厚厚的书,你感兴趣的阅读比赛。它可能是为一个特定的时间练习。练习,练习和练习。杂志和报纸是伟大的实践上。列(栏目)薄,这有助于你走得更快。理解。你可能认为你并不是很吸引人,但要试着做这个测试。选择一本你想读的书。每次你把它捡起来读在你的旧的样式,首先做的快速运行上面描述。你会注意到,当你以你的方式来阅读时,实际上你已经知道,并且可以记住,大多数的关键概念。我们把这种有意识的确信。你的潜意识需要安慰(安心),什么都没有失去,那你吸收你所需要的信息。再加上快速的“预览”,如果你想读得慢些,用你手中的笔做。你的能力将大大提高,因为你将访问的信息几次。你可能仍然希望以较慢的速度享受阅读,或因为你需要真正吸收的每一个字,作者为研究目的,但如果你每天

练习这个技术,突然你会发现你真的是阅读和吸收速度要快得多。

END.......

Some time ago, there lived a king. This king should have been contented with his life, given all the riches he had. However, this was not the case! The king was not content with life at all, and he spent all his time wondering why. One day, the king woke up earlier than usual to take a leisurely walk around his palace. He came to a stop when he heard someone happily singing away. He followed the sound until he discovered where it was coming from. As it turned out, one of the servants was singing, and this servant had a very contented look on his face. This attracted the king greatly and he called this man to his room. The man entered the king's room as ordered. The king asked why he was so happy. To this the man replied, "Your Majesty, I am nothing but a servant, but I make enough of a living to keep my wife and children happy. We don't need anything more than a roof over our heads and warm food to fill our stomach. My wife and children are content with the little money and food I bring home. And I am happy because my family is happy." Hearing this, the king let the servant leave and called his personal assistant to his room. The king told him about his sadness and about the happiness of the servant, hoping that somehow, he would be able to explain why a king, who could have anything he wished for, was not happy, whereas his servant, who had so little, was greatly contented. The personal assistant listened carefully and came to this conclusion: "Your Majesty, I believe that the servant has not been made part of the 99 Club." The 99 Club? And what exactly is that?" the king asked. The Assistant replied, "Your Majesty, to truly know what the 99 Club is, you will have to do the following: Place 99 gold coins in a bag and leave it at this servant's doorstep. You will then understand what the 99 Club is." That very same evening, the king arranged for 99 gold coins to be placed in a bag at the servant's doorstep. The servant was just

stepping out of his house when he saw the bag. He then took it to a table and emptied it out so he could count the coins. Doing so, he realized that there were 99 coins and he thought it was an odd number so he counted again, and again and again, only to come to the same amountD99 gold coins. He began to wonder, what could have happened to that last coin? He couldn't imagine that anyone would leave 99 coins. He began to search his entire house, looked around his backyard for hours, not wanting to lose out on that one coin. Finally, tired out, he decided that he was going to have to work harder than ever to make up for that one gold coin and make his entire collection an even 100 gold coins. He got up the next morning and began the day by shouting at his children and his wife for letting him sleep too late, though in fact it was not their fault. Actually, he had spent most of the night imagining ways of working hard so that he would have enough money to buy himself that gold coin. He went to work as usual but did not feel happy as he usually did. Instead of singing happily while he did his work, he did everything very angrily. Seeing the man's attitude change so

violently, the king was confused. He could not believe that the servant, who until yesterday had been singing away happy and content with his life, could have such a sudden change in behavior, and when he should have been happier after receiving the gold coins. To this, the assistant replied, "Ah! But your Majesty, the servant has now officially joined the 99 Club." He explained, "the 99 Club is just a name given to those people who have a lot but are never contented. They are not pleased with what they have, but are angry because of what they do not have. We have so much to be thankful for, and we can live with very little in our lives, but the minute we are given something bigger and better, we want even more! By wanting more and more we don't realize the price we pay for it. We lose sleep and happiness. Hurting the people around us is another price we pay for our growing needs and desires. That is what joining the 99 Club is all about." Having heard this, the king learned a lesson about life and decided that from that day onwards, he was going to start appreciating all the little things in life.

前一段时间,有一个国王。这个国王应该满足于他的生活,给予他所有的财富。然而,这并非如此!国王不满足于生活,他花了所有的时间想知道为什么。一天,国王比往常早醒了,在他的宫殿里悠闲地散步。当他听到有人高兴地唱着歌的时候,他停了下来。他跟着声音,直到他发现它是从哪里来的。原来,有一个仆人在唱歌,这仆人在脸上显得很知足。这吸引了国王,他把这个人叫到他的房间。那人进入国王的房间。国王问他为什么这么高兴。这人回答说:“陛下,我只不过是一个仆人,但我做了足够的生活,让我的妻子和孩子幸福。我们不需要任何东西超过我们头上的屋顶和温暖的食物来填满我们的胃。我的妻子和孩子们都很知足,我带回家的钱和食物。我很高兴,因为我的家人很高兴,“听到这个,国王让仆人离开,并称他的私人助理,他的房间。国王告诉他关于他的悲伤和幸福的仆人,希望,不知何故,他就可以解释为什么一个国王,谁能有他想要的东西,是不幸福的,而他的仆人,谁有这么小,是极大的满足。个人助理仔细地听着,得出了这样的结论:“陛下,我相信这99家俱乐部的一员,我相信这是没有人的,”99俱乐部?那是什么?”国王问。店员回答说,“你的威严,真正知道什么是99元俱乐部,你将必须做到以下几点:地方99枚硬币袋和离开它在这个仆人的家门口。你会明白99个俱乐部是什么,“那个晚上,国王安排了99枚金币放在一个袋子里,在仆人的门口。仆人只是

当他看见袋子的时候走出了家门。然后他把它带到一张桌子上,把它倒出来,这样他就能数出硬币了。这样做,他意识到有99个硬币,他觉得这是个奇怪的号码,他又数了一遍,又一遍,只到同一amountd99金币。他开始想知道,究竟发生了什么事,最后一枚硬币?他无法想象有人会留下99个硬币。他开始搜寻他的整个房子,环顾四周的后院,不想失去一个硬币。最后,他决定,他要努力工作比以往任何时候都要努力弥补这一个金币,并使他的整个收藏的100金币。第二天早上,他起床,开始喊他的孩子和他的妻子,让他睡得太晚了,但事实上,这不是他们的过错。事实上,他花了大部分的时间来想象自己的工作方法,这样他就有足够的钱来买金币了。他像往常一样去工作,但他通常都没有感到快乐。当他工作的时候,他不高兴地唱着歌,他很生气地做了所有的事情。看到这个人的态度改变得那么厉害,国王也被迷惑了。他可以不相信,的仆人,他们直到昨天已经唱了快乐和内容与他的

生活,能有这样一个突然的变化行为,和当他应该一直幸福后接收的金币。对此,助理回答说:“啊!“陛下,仆人现在已经正式加入了99个俱乐部,”他解释说,“99个俱乐部只不过是一个有很多却不满足的人的名字。他们不喜欢他们所拥有的,但由于他们没有的东西而生气。我们有太多的事情要感谢,我们可以生活得很小,但我们得到的是更大更好的一分钟,我们想要更多!我们不知道我们为之付出的代价。我们失去了睡眠和幸福。伤害我们周围的人是我们为我们不断增长的需求和欲望所付出的另一个代价。,就是加入99元俱乐部是所有关于。”听到这句话,王学上了一课关于生命和决定,从那天起,他是要感激生活中的小事开始。

In an age when television is a vital entertainment medium, more and more people are using it as a study aid. In Britain, the Open University, founded in 1969, encourages home-based students to study for Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees using a combination of television and radio programmes and mail work, where students send in assignments to their instructors and have them returned after evaluation. The Open University has no formal entrance requirements for its students and is designed particularly for people who have missed out on a formal higher education because of lack of money or opportunity in the past. The system works very well in Britain; similar programmes operate in many other countries.

Television learning is not limited to university level education, however. Courses that use educational television programmes as a component may cover a wide variety of subjects, from accounting and statistics to language study. Because so many people use television learning to help them improve their employment opportunities, most television learning courses are job-related in nature. Study programmes may include marketing and business management. Also, in countries such as Australia and New Zealand, language courses in Spanish, French, and Mandarin are also popular. Those who promote the televison courses talk of the opportunity it gives for people to learn "in their own place, at their own pace, and in their own time". Business programmes are very popular around the world. An increasing number of people in management and marketing are studying for business certificates and choose the televison open learning system as an alternative form of study. Some students

study at home on a full-time basis and students also include young mothers, busy workers, and secondary school pupils. Many people study purely out of interest. The TV "open learning" Chinese programme running in Australia and New Zealand was developed by Griffith University in Queensland and Macquarie University in Sydney. Lessons involve a half-hour programme on television followed up by at least 10 hours of study each week. The course is equal to a quarter of a year's full-time study; students get a huge resource pack which includes textbooks and workbooks, tapes, and a wide range of other materials. There is no limit on student numbers in the course because students do not have to be sitting in lecture rooms. They learn at their own speed, have one-on-one mail sessions with their instructors, and can play back a lesson on video as many times as they wish, going over pronunciation repeatedly until they are confident that they have it right. Susan Sun, instructor and class teacher of the Modern Standard Chinese course at the Auckland College of Technology, has been using the Chinese television course for the past three years. She has taught Modern Standard Chinese for the past 10 years as a first language in China and as a second language in New Zealand. She says her course has an emphasis on teaching communicative Chinese. "It is designed to serve the needs of busy, self-motivated people such as university students, teachers, and those employed in public service or working in business. There is also a strong following from people who have a general interest in Chinese people or Chinese language and culture." Sun says there is a big demand to learn Mandarin in Australia and New Zealand. "Business people welcome the programme because it allows them to learn the language quickly and put their new-found knowledge into use." One of her students was enrolled in the course because her employer, a carpet-cleaning company, was experiencing a growth in the number of Chinese clients they were servicing and felt it would offer the company a business advantage if staff could speak the language. Sun says other businesses in Australia and New Zealand are realising the value of learning Chinese because of increasing trade with China. Students studying through the television "open learning" programmes are as close to their instructor as the telephone; a phone hotline is available to all students, 24 hours a day. Contact with instructors can also be made through e-mail or fax, and tapes

of questions and answers are also exchanged on a regular basis. The aim of the

Modern Standard Chinese course is to get students speaking fluently. "Some of the other language courses offered are strong on literature," Sun says. But she wants her students to feel confident enough to go to China and be able to communicate with the people. "It is all about the spontaneous learning of speech." The "open learning" method of study is very challenging. To be successful, students need to be greatly motivated. But this has not stopped a number of students in the Chinese course from going on to study for a Bachelor of Arts degree in the language.

在一个时代,电视是一个重要的娱乐媒介,越来越多的人使用它作为一个研究援助。在英国,的开放大学,成立于1969年,鼓励家庭学生研究学士和学士学位结合使用电视和广播节目和邮件工作,让学生把作业给老师和艺术有他们返回后评价。开放大学对其学生没有正式的入学要求,特别是因为在过去的一个正规的高等教育中由于缺少钱或机会而错过了一个正式的高等教育。该系统在英国工作很好;在许多其他国家也有类似的项目运作。然而,电视学习并不局限于大学水平的教育。使用教育电视节目作为一个组成部分的课程可以涵盖各种各样的科目,从会计和统计到语言学习。因为很多人利用电视学习来帮助他们提高他们的就业机会,大多数电视学习课程相关的性质。研究方案包括市场营销和企业管理。此外,在澳大利亚和新西兰等国家,西班牙语、法语和普通话的语言课程也很受欢迎。那些促进电视课程谈论它给人们了解”自己的地方的机会,在自己的步伐,和自己的时间”。商业计划在世界上很受欢迎。越来越多的企业经营管理和市场营销的人学习业务凭证,选择电视的开放学习系统作为研究的另一种形式。一些学生

There are three popular team games, which are similar. They are soccer (英式), rugby (橄榄球), and American football. The games are similar because, in all of them, a ball is used and the players move the ball with their bodies, especially their feet. However, each game is different from the others in a number of ways. The games are different in their source, in their rules and strategies, in where they are played, and in many other ways. Soccer may be the most popular of the three games. It is played in many countries around the world. Soccer is also called association (协会) football. It is one of the team sports played in the Olympics. It has been a regular part of the Olympic Games since 1908.

Another important international soccer competition is called the World Cup. The World Cup competition occurs once every four years. It is usually played between the Olympics. A World Cup soccer match is held two years after the Olympics. The players in the World Cup are professionals, while those who play in the Olympics must be amateurs.

Soccer

Soccer is played by two teams with eleven men on each team. To win, a team must score more goals than the other team. Each goal in soccer is worth one point. Soccer is played with a round ball. The ball may be kicked, or it may be moved by any part of the body except the hands. Ten of the players must not use their hands. Only one

player is allowed to use his hands. This is the player who defends the goal, or the goalkeeper on the team.

A soccer game usually lasts for ninety minutes. The playing time is divided into two equal parts. The teams play for forty-five minutes, and then take a short rest. After this half-time rest, they play again for another forty-five minutes. Soccer is tiring because the game is very long. To help the players have some rest during the game, there are other players who may play for them, so that everyone may have some rest during the game.

Rugby

The second of the three types of football is called rugby. It is now played professionally in many countries. The most important professional teams are in Great Britain, France, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. There are two kinds of rugby: rugby league and rugby union. They have somewhat different rules.

The major difference between rugby and soccer is that rugby players may use their hands to move the ball. The shape of the ball is oval rather than round as it is in soccer. Rugby is also different from soccer in that it is played by a larger number of players: A rugby union team has fifteen players on each side, while a rugby league team has thirteen.

A rugby game usually lasts for eighty minutes. The playing time is divided equally into two halves. Rugby teams also have substitutes just as soccer teams do. This helps all the players by giving them chances to rest during the games. Rugby is somewhat more complex than soccer. It may be easy to follow when you are watching it, but it is hard to explain.

American Football

American football is also a difficult game to understand. It is a cross between soccer and rugby. This means that it is like soccer in some ways and like rugby in other ways. It is like soccer, for example, because there are eleven men on each team. It is also like rugby because an oval ball is used to play the game. However, there is a difference between the oval ball used in rugby and the one used in American football. The American football is pointed at the ends, unlike the rugby football.

Modern American football is different from rugby and soccer in many ways. Although only eleven men play on a football team at one time, there are actually twenty-two players. In modern football, most teams have two groups of eleven men. One group, the offense, plays when the team has the ball; and the other group, the defense, plays when the other team has the ball. This way of playing allows the players to specialize in one thing in the game. Some players are very good at defense, and others are much

better at scoring goals. All of the players play in the part of the game that they do best. An American football game lasts for sixty minutes, not including all the time the ball is not actually "in play". The playing time is usually divided into four equal periods of fifteen minutes. The players get a short rest between periods. But after two periods, they get a minimum of fifteen minutes rest.

有三种流行的团队游戏,这是相似的。他们是足球(英式),橄榄球(美式足球橄榄球),和。游戏是相似的,因为,在所有的,一个球被用来和球员移动球与他们的身体,特别是他们的脚。然而,每一个游戏都是不同于其他的一些方法。游戏不同于他们的来源,在他们的规则和策略,在他们的发挥,并在许多其他方式。足球可能是最受欢迎的三场比赛。它在世界上许多国家都有。足球也被称为足球协会(协会)。这是一个团队在奥运会上的运动之一。自从1908以来,它一直是奥运会的一部分。

另一项重要的国际足球比赛被称为世界杯。世界杯比赛每四年发生一次。这通常是在奥运会之间进行的。一场世界杯足球赛在奥运会之后两年举行了。世界杯上的球员是专业人士,而那些在奥运会上比赛的选手必须是业余选手。

足球

足球是由两队的十一名队员踢的。要赢,一个队必须比其他队得分更多的进球。足球中的每一个进球都是值得的。足球是用一个圆球踢的。该球可以被踢,或它可以被任何一部分的身体除了手。十的球员不能用手。只有一个球员被允许使用他的手。这是球员谁防守的目标,或在球队的守门员。

足球比赛通常持续九十分钟。游戏时间分为两个相等的部分。两队打四十五分钟,然后休息一会。这个中场休息后,他们玩了四十五分钟。足球是很累的,因为比赛很长。为了帮助球员在比赛中休息,有其他球员可以为他们比赛,这样每个人都可以在比赛中休息。

橄榄球

这三种类型的足球被称为英式橄榄球。它现在在许多国家都是专业的。最重要的专业团队是在英国,法国,澳大利亚,新西兰和南非。有2种橄榄球:橄榄球联盟和橄榄球联盟。他们有不同的规定。

橄榄球和足球之间的主要区别在于橄榄球运动员可以用手移动球。球的形状是椭圆形的,而不是圆的。橄榄球也不同于足球,这是一个更大的球员的数量:一个橄榄球联盟的球队有十五名球员在每边,而一个橄榄球联盟团队有十三。

橄榄球赛通常持续八十分钟。玩的时间被分成两半。橄榄球队也有替补,正如足球队所做的那样。这有助于所有的球员,让他们有机会在比赛期间休息。英式橄榄球比足球更复杂。当

(英语)英语阅读理解练习题含答案及解析

一、中考英语阅读理解汇编 1.阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出最佳选项。 What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow. When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic control. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality. Three-dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic. They build the object layer by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop, the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive. So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people. (1)What is the passage mainly about? A. Environmental protection. B. The world of tomorrow. C. Advantages of technology. (2)What do we learn from the passage? A. Some people think technology development may bring new problems B. 3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap. C. The flying cars won't bring air traffic jam even when they become popular.

浅谈高中英语阅读课课堂教学设计

浅谈高中英语阅读课课堂教学设计 发表时间:2013-01-21T11:23:15.637Z 来源:《新校园》学习版2012年第9期供稿作者:杨彩红 [导读] 高中英语的阅读课文的选材丰富,是渗透着思想情感的教育,对学生的身心发展会产生较强的感染作用。 张圆 (兰州市六十中,甘肃兰州730060) 摘要:高中英语阅读材料贴近现代生活,许多阅读课文渗透着思想情感的教育,是高中英语教学的一个重要环节。本文对高中英语阅读课教学设计进行初步探讨,提出一种新的阅读课的课堂教学设计,强调学生在阅读教学中的主体性和参与性,重视学生的参与以及学生用英语获取信息、运用信息、处理信息、分析和解决问题的能力,同时也注重学生的知识拓展以及对英语文学作品的审美能力。 关键词:阅读课教学;教学设计 英语阅读课是扩充学生词汇量、丰富学生语言和提高学生语言运用能力的重要课程和途径,是学生拓宽视野,获取知识和信息的重要渠道。新课程标准指导下的Senior Englishfor China 新教材阅读课教材内容十分广泛,包括人文地理、科学发明、历史与文学、体育与健康、宇宙空间、新闻媒体、报刊杂志、旅游与休闲、人权等各种题材。体裁则更加丰富多彩,有记叙、说明、议论、小说、书信、戏剧、游记、幽默等。这样就具有话题广泛、信息量大、语言知识丰富等特征。它是各单元教学的核心,是培养学生阅读能力的经典范文,也是学生吸收和运用信息的主渠道。以高中英语阅读课文为例,对高中英语阅读课文课堂教学设计进行初步探讨,大致分为以下四个环节进行课堂教学设计,每个环节在教学中的侧重点不同,但又缺一不可。 一、导入(Leading in)———引出话题 课文导入环节是为了对阅读作教学准备,引起学生对阅读的兴趣和求知欲。设计好导入环节能有效地激发学生的学习兴趣,培养良好的阅读习惯。采用启发式教学方法,激活学生思维,让学生对文章所给的信息产生好奇的心理,给学生独立思考、大胆想象和自我发挥创造了思维空间,从而激发他们去捕捉文章中的信息。在教学中根据不同的内容可以使用的导入方式有以下几种: 1.背景介绍式(the way to introduce background information) 这种导入模式可以启发学生对有关话题的思考,常用于涉及西方文化的背景知识,比如外国的政治、历史、文学、地理、风俗习惯等题材的文章,我们可以利用PPT 来进行背景展示,也可以通过录像、文字资料、旅游指南、音乐、视频等进行介绍,目的是提供背景信息,启发学生的思维和想象,提升课程周边知识量。在阅读课The British Isles (高二Unit5)的教学中,让学生了解其历史、文化、自然风光等知识,还可以通过世界地图或者教学挂图来让学生了解the British Isles 的地理位置及其它的组成部分。 2.提问式(the way to ask questions) 这是一种常用的导入模式,教师通过教学参考资料或者课文中的重点和难点提出问题,让学生根据自己的常识进行回答,或者带着问题去阅读。提出的问题不仅与本单元的主题有关,而且与阅读材料关系密切。此任务型活动需要学生根据问题的启发,发表自己的见解。学生找到文章中的有关章节并不难,难点在于要求学生用自己的语言将答案概括出来。例如,在进行课文Table manners at a dinner party (高一Unit6)的教学时,笔者要求学生先讨论以下问题: (1)What table manners does the text about? (2)How does the text develop, in the order of content or in theorder of time? 3.讨论式(the way to discuss) 高中英语教材大多数内容都与我们的日常生活密切相关,比如,饮食健康、旅游、自然灾害、疾病与急救常识、环境保护等。在上课前先组织学生讨论与课文有关的话题,能激活学生头脑里的生活体验,启发学生预测课文的内容,展开简短的讨论,以便通过阅读验证自己的推测,让学生在阅读文章时有身临其境的感觉。例如,让学生例举平时在身边发生的紧急情况,比如溺水、交通事故、房子着火、出血、哽住、煤气中毒等,要求他们分组讨论如何自救,从而为阅读课文The rescue(高一Unit5)作好铺垫。 二、课文教学———课文呈现(Presentation) 课文教学是阅读课教学的核心部分,它是学生从文章中吸取信息而进行加工处理的一个阶段,学生要从所给的篇章中找出文章的细节描写、归纳出文章的中心思想,找出文章的主题句和主题段、归纳文章的语言知识,培养学生对获得信息、处理信息、分析问题和解决问题的能力,特别是注重提高学生用英语进行思维和表达的能力。在课文教学时,打破传统的授课模式,不再逐字逐段地为学生翻译句子或者向学生“满堂灌”或“满堂问”,而是要指导学生进行篇章分析,找出每段的中心词和中心句(key word and sentence),理解文章的体裁,掌握每个段落的大意(general idea),归纳出整篇文章的主题,最后让学生欣赏文章。课文阅读教学应该分为以下两步来进行: 1.快速浏览(Skimming)———初步感知 快速浏览是为了获取特定的信息而阅读,要求学生在限定的时间内找到问题的出处,并迅速找到问题的答案。在进行课文Kwanzaa(高一Unit14)设计与课文有关的的几个问题,要求学生通过快速浏览来回答: (1)What is the name of the festival? (2)What is the festival about? (3)When do people celebrate Kwanzaa? 教师要让学生养成正确的阅读习惯,训练学生“Z”字型的阅读方式,避免一个词一个词地逐行阅读,而是要快速用眼、用心、用大脑去扫描文章,集中精力用大脑去捕捉每段文字所传达的信息并对信息进行简单的加工和处理。 2.详细阅读(Careful reading)———深化理解 详细阅读是课文教学的重要环节,是学生掌握课文内容的关键。首先要引导学生仔细阅读课文,了解课文的主要情节和细节,可以让学生分析段落、段落大意以及段落之间存在的内在逻辑联系。在详细阅读这一环节还可以给学生设计多项选择题或者正误判断题让学生讨论。分段细读,注意细节,帮助学生深化理解。例如,进行课文Chuck’s friend(高一Unit 1)的教学时,设计划分文章段落大意的题,目的在于教会学生理清文章的层次,进一步理解阅读材料的内容。 详细阅读之后,在学生基本掌握课文内容的基础上,教师通过播放录音,要求学生在听的过程中注意英语的语音语调和句子的停顿,

You do not have to lie to hide the parts of you that are not like what you see in anyone else. You were meant to be different. Nowhere, in all of history, will the same things be going on in anyone’s mind, soul and spirit as are going on in yours right now.

Enjoy it and share it! No one can reach out to others in the same way that you can. No one can speak your words. No one can convey your meanings. No one can comfort others with your kind of comfort. No one can bring your kind of understanding to another person. No one can be cheerful and light-hearted3 and joyous4 in your way. No one can smile your smile. No one else can bring the whole unique impact of you to another human being. Share your uniqueness. Let it flow out freely among your family and friends, and the people you meet in the rush and clutter of living, wherever you are. That gift of yourself was given to you to enjoy and share. Give yourself away! See it! Receive it! Let it inform you, move you and inspire you! You are unique!

Over the past 10 years, developments in technology have moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now, two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon. The British company Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype (原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton, marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics, says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed, he adds. Mr. Stapleton says safety was the company's main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors ( 交叠式旋翼 )to power the vehicle. The company is testing a full-size prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams. In New Zealand, the Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a full-size prototype of its personal flying device, called the Jetpack. It can fly for more than 30 minutes, up to 1,000 meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour. Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said the Jetpack “is built around safety from the start. In his words, reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself, very similar to a Formula One racing car.” The Jetpack uses a gasoline-powered engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr. Coker says it also has a parachute (降落伞) that can be used should there be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot,” he adds. Mr. Coker says the Jetpack will be ready for sale soon. (1)We can learn from the passage that the Hoverbike .

They are hastening back to their warm wooden dovecote(鸽房) earlier than usual perhaps because they have mistaken the bleak(阴冷的,荒凉的) leaden sky for nightfall or because of their presentiment(预感) of a storm. The willow twigs, daubed with a light green by several days of sunshine, are now covered all over with dust and look so sickly that they need to be washed.

(完整)初中英语阅读课堂教学案例

初中英语阅读课堂教学案例 阅读理解是英语学习中必须具备的能力之一,有助于巩固和扩大词汇、丰富语言知识,提高运用语言的能力。可以训练学生的思维能力、理解能力、概括能力与判断能力。加强阅读训练可以为学生创造大量获取语言知识和大量运用语言的机会和条件。既可以培养学生对语篇进行分析、综合并从中获取信息的能力,也能培养学生的审美情趣。培养阅读能力也是教学大纲中规定的中学英语教学目标之一,所以阅读课在我们平时的英语教学中尤为重要,怎样上好阅读课成为英语教师教学中的关键。以下根据自己近些年的教学经验,对初中英语阅读理解教学模式进行初步的探究和分析。 教学模式总结如下: Presentation(导入)——skimming(粗读)——listening and reading (听读)——scanning(跳读)——intensive reading(细读)——retellin g(复述)——discussing(讨论)——writing(写作)——summary(小结)。 现以初中英语人教版九年级Unit 12 Section B 3a中的一篇短文为例,进行说明。 Step 1:Presentation(导入) 本篇文章主要讲述法国的风俗,所以可以通过讲述一个因为语言差异所产生的误解的笑话导入,以此引起学生对课文产生兴趣,使学生更快的进入学习状态。 Step 2:Skimming

这一步是为掌握文章大意而进行的阅读,要求学生读后概括文章的大意,并且设计一些简单的问句让学生进行回答。 What does Wang Kun do? Where is she now? What’s the article mainly about? Step 3:Listening and reading 让学生边听边读,并且在听读的过程中找出文章的重点词汇、短语、句子。并且进行解决,扫除学生阅读中存在的一部分障碍,但要注意知识点的讲解要尽量简练,并且要引导和培养学生根据上下文猜词的能力。 Step 4:Scanning 这是一种为寻求特点细节放弃大部分内容,只注意某一点或某几点的阅读方式,要求学生根据老师提出的问题进行跳跃式的阅读,找出问题的主要信息。在此环节中提醒学生不要逐词逐句看课文,要讲究速度。在最短的时间内找出问题的答案。在此期间老师要出示以下问题: How many table manners are mentioned in the passage ? What are th ey ? be supposed to do be not supposed to do Step 5:Intensive reading
