How empathy unfolds同感是怎样表露的1 The moment Hope, just nine months old, saw another baby fall, tears welled up in her own eyes and she crawled off to be comforted by her mother, as though it were she who had been hurt. And 15-month-old Michael went to get his own teddy bear for his crying friend Paul; when Paul kept crying, Michael retrieved Paul's security blanket for him. Both these small acts of sympathy and caring were observed by mothers trained to record such incidents of empathy in action. The results of the study suggest that the roots of empathy can be traced to infancy. Virtually from the day they are born infants are upset when they hear another infant crying – a response some see as the earliest precursor of empathy.霍普才九个月大，一见到另一个婴儿摔倒，泪水就涌了出来。
她爬到妈妈身边寻求安慰，就好像是她自己摔疼了。

War
1 The passengers had had to stop at a small station in order to continue their journey by the small oldfashioned local train. 2 At dawn, a bulky woman in deep mourning was hoisted in – almost like a shapeless bundle. Behind her, puffing and moaning, followed her husband – a tiny man, thin and weakly, looking shy and uneasy. 3 Having at last taken a seat he politely thanked the passengers who had helped his wife and made room for her. The wife pulled up her collar again to her eyes, so as to hide her face.
Warming Up
Today on Okinawa, many Japanese still remember the battle. The fighting caused the deaths of almost one-third of the civilians who lived on the island. Some Japanese military areas are preserved as memorials.

If so, why?3)Do you know how to keep yourself in a good mood?4)How do you react to difficulties in life? Can you give an example?5)Do you think optimism is the key to a happy and better life?▇ Answers for reference:1)Possible Answers:a. I feel happy about my present life.●My parents love me much and my classmates are friendly and caring.●I am making progress in my studies every day.●I am becoming a more independent person.b. I am not happy about my life now.●It seems that I still cannot adapt to college life very well.●I find it hard to balance between social activities and studies.●I have difficulty getting along with my classmates.●I feel lonely at times.2)Possible Answers:a.

If I meet some problems or difficulties in life, I will face them positively and try my best to solve themby myself.●My parents hardly have enough money to pay for my education. I did not complain or feeldisadvantaged. Instead, I set my mind on solving the problem by myself. After I got into college I found a part-time job on campus and managed to earn some money to support myself.b. I would turn to my parents for help, because they are more experienced in life.

No, I don‟t think so. Optimism alone is not enough for a happy and better life. Things may not getbetter just because of one‟s will power or one‟s optimistic attitude towards them.Section B Quotes▇Study the following quotes about personality and see if you accept the ideas expressed in the quotes.⊙Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face.─Victor Hugo Interpretation:When we feel disappointed, sad, lonely or miserable, we tend to feel as if we were living in winter. Butlaughter is a good medicine and it can work miracles. If we make a conscious effort to laugh, we will soon findthat we are in a better mood. Here, Victor Hugo tells us, in a humorous way, the importance of being optimisticin times of adversity.Victor HugoAbout Victor Hugo:Victor Hugo /5vIkE(r) 5hju:gEU/ (1802-1885): French writer of poems, plays, and novels. Two of hismost famous novels, Notre Dame de Paris (《巴黎圣母院》); in English also called The Hunchback of NotreDame (《钟楼怪人》) and Les Misérables (《悲惨世界》), have been made into films, and Les Misérableshas also been made into a famous musical (音乐剧).⊙What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise (伪装).─Oscar Wilde Interpretation:Life is full of trials. When you are in difficulty or suffer a setback, don‟t despair. You can always findsomething good in what seems to be a bad thing. Once you‟ve gone through the trials, you will find yourselfstronger and in a better position to attain success.Oscar WildeAbout Oscar Wilde:Oscar Wilde/5CskE(r) waIld/ (1854-1900): Irish writer of poems, stories, and especially humorousplays. He is best known for his play The Importance of Being Earnest and for his novel The Picture of DorianGray.⊙A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.─Winston ChurchillInterpretation:The attitude of a person colours things around him or her. A pessimistic person is always focusing on thenegative side of things. Even when there is a good opportunity, a pessimist will think about the possibledangers or risks involved in it. An optimist does recognize the difficulties, but he or she chooses to focus onthe positive side.Winston ChurchillAbout Winston Churchill:Winston Churchill/5wInst E n 5tF\:tFIl/ (1874-1965): British politician who was Prime Ministerduring most of World War II and again from 1951 to 1955. He is still remembered and admired by most Britishpeople as a great leader who made possible Britain‟s victory in the war.⊙Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.─Helen Keller Interpretation:Optimism is essential for achievement. If we see no hope and have no confidence in what we are doing, we canachieve nothing. It is hope and confidence that motivate us to reach our objectives.Helen KellerAbout Helen Keller:Helen Keller/5helEn 5kelE(r)/ (1880-1968): US writer known especially for the way she learned tospeak and write after becoming blind and deaf as a baby. She greatly helped blind and deaf people bycollecting money, making speeches, and trying to change people‟s attitudes. She was the subject of a famousbook and film about her life called The Miracle Worker (《奇迹创造者》).Section C Watching and Discussion▇Watch the following video clip “How to Practice Positive Thinking” and do the tasks that follow:插入视频片段：“How to Practice Positive Thinking.wmv”1.Fill in the missing words according to what you hear from the video clip.A few simple attitude adjustments can make you happier and healthier.

He was always in a good mood, always up and always had something positive to say.If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation. Seeing his optimism really made me curious, so one day I went up to Michael and asked him, “I don‟t get it. You can‟t be positive all the time. How do you do it?”Michael replied, “E ach morning I wake up and say to myself: Mike, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood. I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it.

You choose how you react to situations; you choose how people will affect your mood; you choose how you feel. The bottom line is: It‟s your choice how you live your life.”From Michael I have learned that every day we have a choice to live fully. So I will choose to be anoptimist.

If this is the case, then can we consciously make our emotions work for us in a constructive way? The following passage provides a positive answer: by simply choosing optimism, we can lead a better life.Choose OptimismRich DeV os1 If you expect something to turn out bad, it probably will. Pessimism is seldom disappointed. But the same principle also works in reverse. If you expect good things to happen, they usually do! There seems to be a natural cause-and-effect relationship between optimism and success.2 Optimism and pessimism are with powerful forces, and each of us must choose which we want, so as to shape our outlook and our expectations. There is enough good and bad in everyone‟s life— ample sorrow and happiness, sufficient joy and pain — to find a rational basis for either optimism or pessimism. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or curse. It‟s our decision: From which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in hope or down in despair?3 I believe in the upward look. I choose to highlight the positive and slip right over the negative. I am an optimist by choice as much as by nature. Sure, I know that sorrow exists. I am in my 70‟s now, and I‟ve lived through more than one crisis. But when all is said and done, I find that the good in life is far greater and more important than the bad.4 An optimistic attitude is not a luxury; it‟s a necessity. The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. Conversely, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations feed on themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy.Pessimism creates a sad and hopeless place where no one wants to live in.5 Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “How do you feel?”That seemed like an odd question, but I felt fine and told him so.“You do n‟t look well,” he replied. This took me completely by surprise. A little less confidently, I told him that I had never felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.6 By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little uneasy. About a block away, I pulled over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Did I look that bad? Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little sick. Did I have a bad liver? Had I picked up some rare disease?7 The next time I went into that gas station, feeling fine again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright but disgusting yellow, and the light reflecting off the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis! I wondered how many other folks had reacted the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total stranger change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, I was actually feeling sick. That single negative observation had a profound effect on the way I felt and acted.8 The only thing more powerful than negativism is a positive affirmation, a word of optimism and hope. One of the things I am most thankful for is the fact that I have grown up in a nation with a grand tradition of optimism. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be accomplished. When the world is seen as a hopeful, positive place, people are given the power to attempt and to achieve.9 Optimism doesn‟t need to be naive. You can be an optimist and still recognize that problems exist and that some of them are not dealt with easily. But what a difference optimism makes in the attitude of the problem solver! For example, through the years I‟ve heard some people say that the money spent on our space program has been wasted. “Instead of spending $455 million to put a man on the moon,” they say, “why not spend that money here on earth on the poverty problem?” But when you ask them exactly how they would spend thatmoney to solve the poverty problem, most of them don‟t have an answer. “Give me a solution,” I tell them, “and I‟ll raise you the money.” Think in positive terms about how to address the issue rather than criticizing money spent on another program, such as America‟s space program, which has resulted in many positive discoveries that have benefited mankind.10 Optimism draws our attention away from negativism and channels it into positive, constructive thinking. When you‟re an optimist, you‟re more concerned with problem-solving than with useless fault-finding. In fact, without optimism, issues as big and ongoing as poverty have no hope of solution. It takes a dreamer —someone with hopelessly optimistic ideas, great persistence, and unlimited confidence — to tackle a problem that big. It‟s your choice.（此课文没有更新，不需要配图说明。

Whether near his home in Wales, roaming other parts of Britain or even further afield, linguist David Crystal always travels with an insatiable curiosity about the English language. He never fails to meet people with distinctive accents or come across towns with unusual names, and takes the time to explore intriguing turns of phrase, whether rooted deep in Anglo-Saxon origins or fresh off a television set. In his new book, “Walking English,” David Crystal hits the road in search of new linguistic experiences from Wales to Lodz in Poland and California’s Silicon Valley. He joins us in a moment to discuss the lilts, words, catchphrases and grammar he found along the way. David Crystal joins us from his home in Holyhead, Wales. And it’s nice to have you back on the program. Mr. DAVIDCRYSTAL (Author, “Walking English”). Hello, Neal, it’s a real pleasure to be back.Learning English as a Global Language Unit 219u2.indd 192012.8.14 2:58:01 PMNEAL CONAN. And to begin with, how do you define your accent? (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. I wish I could. Well, you know, an accent reflects where you’ve been, where you’ve been brought up. And most people these days don’t spend their whole lives in one place. So, whereas once upon a time it was quite easy to almost predict where somebody had come from just by listening to them, you listen to somebody like me and what you hear in this voice you’re hearing now is the first 10 years of my life living in Wales - living in Wales it would have been that sort of accent then. And then the next 10 years of my life living in Liverpool, well, everybody knows the Beatles. The Beatles accent, you know. And there was that sort of accent mixed in with it. And then I lived for 20 years down in the south of England and there was a kind of, you know, southern accent that came on top of the other two. And they’ve all mixed together to produce what you’re hearing now. CONAN. And it’s interesting, you say, in part, your accent depends on who y ou’re speaking with. Your children, for example, grew up in this country. Mr. CRYSTAL. Well, it’s - it’s, you know, as you and I might talk now over the next few minutes, I wouldn’t mind betting that my accent became slightly more American than it might ha ve been before. You know, it’s what happens. Accents change in terms of everything. I mean, that’s a good example.My kids, take the word schedule, you know, schedule in America, of course. Now I was brought up to say shed-ule. But all my kids have been influenced by American English. So, they all say, sked-ule. So, when I talk to them, I say sked-ule as well now. So, I got two pronunciations of the word. And this is very typical of the way language is going. CONAN. I - I had the good fortune to live and work in London for four years and it was my contention that an American could get about two-thirds of the way to a British accent before anybody noticed. (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. That’s right. And not just in pronunciation but, also in spelling because an awful lot of the American spellings have come into British English now. Yes, that’s right. I mean, it’s all your fault, you see... (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. ...you guys, the other side of the pond. You’ve made all the films, you made all the most successful television programs and things like that. And so, inevitably we are more used to your accent than you are to ours. I mean, one day, when British filmmaking becomes as powerful as Hollywood, it might go the other way round. But I can’t see that happening just yet. CONAN. Well, we used to go to the theatre sometimes and we would hear British actors doing Americans accents. In general they’re much better at American accents than we are at British ones. But nevertheless, there used to be something I used to call the I-80 accent because it sort of wandered all the way across the country. (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. Yes, that’s right. It’s very difficult actually to pick up the accent differences within a country if you’re not part of that country. CONAN. Mm-hmm. Mr. CRYSTAL. I mean, I’ve been to America several times and I’ve got to know, you know, some of the accent differences, but I still have great difficulty placing accents in a way that you would have no trouble about.And vice-versa. You know, Americans come over to Britain and they - they don’t - they20Unit 2 Learning English as a Global Languageu2.indd 202012.8.14 2:58:01 PMget the main accents, like say, Scottish English or something like that... CONAN. Mm-hmm. Mr. CR YSTAL. But it’s very difficult to really put your finger on some of the more subtle differences. CONAN. I was astonished to learn that English people had a hard time differentiating between American and Canadian accents. And indeed, they found it curious t hat I couldn’t tell the difference between Kiwis and Aussies. Mr. CRYSTAL. Yeah, that’s right. CONAN. Yeah. Mr. CRYSTAL. I think most people would be completely unclear about the difference between U.S. and Canadian English. I mean, there are some very clear differences, like the Canadian, you know, house, which you just don’t get the other side of - your side of the border. But most British people just wouldn’t hear it.Part Two Initializing the ProjectReadingActivity 1:Things to be crossed out are.
