《新编英语教程》(修订版)第三册Unit 1[见教材P1]My First Job我的第一份工作Robert Best罗伯特.贝斯特①While I was waiting to enter university, I saw②Being very short of money andwanting to do something useful, I applied, fearing thatmy chances of landing the job were slim.①那年,我考上了大学,还没有入校时,在本地一家报纸上看到一所学校发布广告,招聘一名教师。
②这所学校位于伦敦郊区,距离我住的地方大约[有]十英里。
③当时因为急需用钱,又想做些有意义的事情,于是我就提出了申请。
④但是同时,我又担心,既没有学位又没有教学经验,所以获得这个职位的可能性非常小。
①However, three days later a letter arrived, summoning me to Croydon for an interview. ②It proved an awkward journey: a train to Croydon station;a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of at least a quarter of a mile. ③As a result I arrived on a hot June morning too depressed to feel nervous.①然而,三天以后来信了,通知我到Croydon参加面试。
②路很不好走,先坐火车到Croydon车站,再坐十分钟的公交车,最后步行至少0.25英里才到达目的地。
③那可是六月天的上午,天气很热,我非常沮丧,也非常紧张,简直都崩溃了。
①and②The front garden was a gravel square;four evergreen shrubs stood at each corner, where they struggled to survive the dust and fumes from a busy main road.①学校是一幢维多利亚时代的红砖建筑,有山墙,有很大的垂直拉窗,闪闪发光,让人感觉单调乏味。

Unit 1DIALOGUE IBack from the Summer CampA: You know what? I've just come back from a wonderful summer camp.B: You have? Where did you go?A: Mount Tai.B: I've been there too. It's one of China's most beautiful mountains. There're many scenic spots and places of historical interest. I was greatly impressed by its natural beauty when I took a study tour there two years ago.A: It really is a very beautiful tourist attraction. But we went there as campers, not as tourists. It was a study programme organized by our local community committee.B: I bet you had lots of fun there.A: Yes, it was a wonderful experience. You know it was the first time I'd been to a summer camp in five years, and it brought back such sweet memories.B: Were there any other camping groups when you were there?A: Not when we arrived at the foot of the mountain. But soon we were joined by many similar camping groups from other cities. By the time we arrived at the campsite, night had fallen. And we were so happy to see that the campers who arrived there the day before were giving a performance by the campfire.B: You remind me of my last trip there. I wish I had been there with you this time. What did you do at the summer camp? A: Oh, lots of things. Most of the time we studied plants, rocks, insects... things like that. We also had lots of fun, hiking, climbing mountains, taking pictures...B: I guess you had the life of a natural scientist.A: And the life of an athlete, too.B: I had a similar experience during the summer two years ago. I remember my summer camp was subdivided into what we called "hobby groups", such as the music group, the drama group, and the model aircraft and ship group. People sharing similar interests and hobbies worked together. Were there any hobby groups in your programme?A: Yes, of course. We had a number of hobby groups for campers with varied interests. We called them "project groups" because each group worked on a particular project. At the completion of their projects, each group presented their "fruits" to all the campers. Some gave oral reports, some staged an exhibition, and others put on a performance.B: You had a marvellous time this summer! Your story has really brought back happy memories of my own camping experience.DIALOGUE IIDialogue:Sally Jones, an English language teacher from Oxford University, has just arrived at Beijing Airport. She is going to spend three months here, lecturing and teaching at different colleges and universities. Miss Wang, Secretary of the English Department, and Mr. Yu, Vice Chairman of the English Department, have come to the airport to meet her.Miss Wang: Excuse me, are you Miss Jones?Sally: Yes, that's right.Miss Wang: Oh, how do you do? I'm Wang Xinfu, Secretary of the English Department.Sally: Oh, yes, Miss Wang, hello. I'm very pleased to meet you. (They shake hands.)Miss Wang: Miss Jones, may I introduce you to Mr. Yu, Vice Chairman of the English Department?Mr. Yu: Hello, Miss Jones, I've been looking forward to meeting you.Sally: How do you do? (They shake hands.) It's very kind of you both to come and meet me at the airport.Miss Wang: Not at all. I hope you had a good flight.Sally: Well, not too bad. It was a bit bumpy as we came in to land; some low clouds, I think.Mr. Yu: Yes, we had a storm here yesterday and the weather is still a bit unsettled.Sally: Oh, dear! I was rather lucky then!Miss Wang: You must be rather tired after your long flight.Sally: Well, yes, I am actually... I've been travelling for 21 hours!Mr. Yu: In that case, I think we should go straight to the hotel.Miss Wang: Yes, I agree. This way then, ... if you'd like to follow me.READING IHerbert's HomecomingHerbert Marshall was a student at Cambridge, but his hometown was St. Albans. It was August and the family had gone to the seaside. Herbert went to France for his holiday, but he ran out of money, and came home a week earlier than he had expected to.His train didn't get into St. Albans until just before midnight. The last bus had gone, so he had to walk home. He let himself into the kitchen, and as he was feeling hot and sticky, he took off his shirt to have a wash.Suddenly he heard heavy footsteps running up the path. The back door burst open, and he found himself surrounded by policemen. They pushed him into the living-room next door, made him sit down, and began asking him question."What's your name?""Where do you live?""What's in that case?""What are you doing here?""I live here," said Herbert, "I've been on holiday." But nobody listened to him. They just went on asking questions. Then suddenly one of the policemen said:"Watch him, Frank — we'll go and search the house."They left a tall, very young policeman to guard him."Can I put my shirt on?" asked Herbert."No," said the policeman, "stay where you are."Then the others came back with an older man, a sergeant. He asked the same questions, but he listened to Herbert's answers."I live here," said Herbert, "and I want to put my shirt on." The sergeant looked at him thoughtfully."We'll soon settle this," he said.He went out and came back with a small, sandy-haired man wearing a shabby, brown dressing-gown. It was Herbert's next-door neighbour. He peered at Herbert intently through thick spectacles."Oh, yes, sergeant," he said, "that is Mr. Marshall." Then he disappeared very quickly. The policemen all looked dreadfully disappointed. They were convinced they had caught a burglar."Did he ring you up?" asked Herbert. The police sergeant nodded."He saw a light and understood your family had all gone away to the seaside."When they had all gone, Herbert made himself a cup of coffee.。

Yes, she did.2.Why did Ingrid buy the man for the whole dayBecause she wanted him to help make her other New Year’sresolutions come true by midnight.Discussion:Why do New Year’s resolutions rarely work In your opinion, how can we succeed in achieving them?(This is an open question.)Script(From New Year’s Eve)- All right. Working on those resolutions, huh?- No.- Okay. I have a delivery here for Mr. Jonathan Cox.- Do you work here?- No. I work for a courier(快递员) service. I’ve been delivering packages to you for about, I don’t know, a year now. But I think this is maybe the first time you’ve ever looked me in the eye. How are you doing?- Sorry. That’s actually an old resolution. Make more eye contact. - So those were New Year’s resolutions, huh Looks like a long list. You gotta get on it.- I don’t know, maybe next year.- Whoa. Jeez! Are you serious That is a hot ticket.- Really- It’s amazing. They have the best food, the best music. They have so many single girls. And it’s a masquerade(化妆舞会), so youdon’t even have to worry about their faces. You kind of just, you know, use your imagination. If anybody tries to kick you out, or even asks who you are, you just straight-up lie. What are they gonna doIt’s brilliant. It’s like Facebook, but real.- I remember who you are now.- Right, exactly. Anyways, I would give my left... Well, maybe next year.- Ms. Withers Did you call in a delivery of something- Ingrid.- Ingrid.- And actually, I’m your next job. I bought you for the day.- Bought me for the day, huh Oh, Ms. Withers. I think I should be offended(得罪,冒犯), but I’m just too intrigued(好奇的,被迷住的).- My New Year’s resolutions. I just took care of the first one.- You quit your job All right.- If you can make the rest of these come true by midnight, you get these.- For me Holy shi... Whoa. Whoa, okay. Put these down.

I’m just saying.- Thanks. Make a list of your own. Don’t wait as long as I did.- Pow, pow, shwing.- Thank you. Mm.- Goodbye.- Goodbye.- Have a great time.- You too. Happy new year, Ingrid.3.QuotesRead the following quotes and tell your classmates which one is your favorite. State your reasons.Sometimes we know the best thing to do, but fail to do it. Newyear’s resolutions are often like that. We make resolutions because we know it would be better for us to lose weight, or get fit, or spend more time with our children. The problem is that a resolutionis generally easier to break than it is to keep.— Peter SingerNo one’s ever achieved financial fitness with a January resolution that’s abandoned by February.— Suze OrmanI have no way of knowing how people really feel, but the vastmajority of those I meet couldn’t be nicer. Every once in a while someone barks at me. My New Year’s resolution is not to bark back.— Tucker CarlsonMy New Year’s Resolution List usually starts with the desire to lose between ten and three thousand pounds.— Nia VardalosIf you asked me for my New Year Resolution, it would be to find out who I am.— Cyril CusackMay all your troubles last as long as your New Year’s resolutions.— Joey AdamsI think in terms of the day’s resolutions, not the years’.— Henry MooreMaking resolutions is a cleansing ritual of self assessment and repentance that demands personal honesty and, ultimately, reinforces humility. Breaking them is part of the cycle.—Eric ZornI made no resolutions for the New Year. The habit of making plans, of criticizing, sanctioning and molding my life, is too much of a daily event for me.—Anaïs NinText I1.Pre-Reading QuestionsThe hero of the story, who is married and has four children, istalking about his New Year’s Resolution in the text. In the first paragraph, he says “This year it’s going to be different”. Whydoes he say soWhat sort of resolutions did he make in the previous yearsHow do his New Year’s resolutions for this year differ from previous onesMake a few guesses.For your reference:When a person makes New Year’s resolutions, he makes up his mind to do or not to do certain things in the coming year. Of course,different people make different New Year’s resolutions. For example, a student may decide to work harder at his studies and not go to the cinema so often; a teacher may decide to improve his/her teaching; a heavy smoker may decide to stop smoking altogether. Some people maybe able to carry out their New Year’s resolutions, but some may not. For most people, it’s often easier to make New Year’s resolutions than to carry them out.2.General ReadingYou are given five minutes to read the text rapidly once to get the main idea.Now decide which of the following statements best sums up the main idea. Put a tick by it.__ 1. Some of his family members were pleased while others were not when the writer tried to please everybody in the family on NewYear’s Day.__ 2. The writer tried to be a better husband and a better father in the new year, and his family members appreciated this.√ 3. The writer carried out his New Year’s resolutions faithfully to improve himself, but the results all went contrary to hisexpectations.Key(点击答案按钮,上述第三句前面横线上出现√)3.Background Notes(1) escapement(卡子,擒纵机)An escapement is a device in mechanical watches and clocks that transfers energy to the timekeeping element and allows the number of its oscillations(振荡,振动) to be counted. The escapement isdriven by force from a coiled卷 spring弹簧 or a suspended悬挂暂停weight, transmitted through the timepiece’s时钟座钟 gear 齿轮排挡train. The amount of stored energy, energy loss and efficiency of transfer to the timekeeping element determines the time a clock will run after it has been wound.(2) small talkSmall talk is meaningless conversation in terms of content, butis often seen as socially important in certain situations, or context. In many English-speaking countries, it can be viewed as rude or unfriendly not to participate in it. Non-personal comments about non-controversial subjects are usually considered as appropriate for this type of conversation.4.TextThis Year It’s Going to Be Different(1)New Year’s resolutions are like anything else — you get outof them what you put in. Judging from results of other years, I had never put enough in, but this year was going to be different. I read books on self-improvement before I wrote my list. Find some beauty in everything. ... Make the other fellow feel important. ... Aboutthirty like that. Pretty clearly, (2)anyone who followed mycollection of rules would be blessed with a richer life, (1)boundless 无穷的无限的love from his family, and the admiration of the community. I could hardly wait until New Year’s Day.When I came downstairs Maggie, my wife, was at the kitchen sink水池. I (2)tiptoed over踮着脚尖走 and kissed her on the back of the neck. (Resolution : Be (3)spontaneous自发的无意识的自然的inshowing affection.) She (4)shrieked尖叫and dropped a cup. “Don’t ever (5)sneak up悄悄来临鬼鬼祟祟 on me like that again!” she cried.“You’re looking lovely this morning,” I said. (A sincere(6)compliment称赞恭维 is worth its weight in gold.)(3)“Look,” she said, “it wasn’t my idea to stay out untilfour .”I took some aspirin and coffee into the living room. I’d just started reading the paper when Sammy, our five-year-old, came in. He was wearing the watch he’d received for Christmas. (4)“Say, Dad,”he said, “what makes a watch run?”In the old days I would have told him to ask his mother. Instead,I got a pencil and drew a (7)sketch草图素描 of the escapement(8)mechanism结构机械装置机能. (Always encourage your child’s curiosity.) It took about fifteen minutes, and Sammy wandered off several times, but I kept calling him back. “There,” I said,“that’s what makes your watch run.”(5)“Then how come it doesn’t?” he asked.His brother Roy walked by. “You have to wind上发条 it,” said Roy. Sammy wound it and held it to his ear. He smiled. “Roy sure is smart,” he said.Our daughter Gretchen came in with her doll, Mrs. Robinson. “Good morning, Gretchen,” I said. “Happy New Year, Mrs. Robinson.” (Meet your child at his own level.)(6)“It isn’t either happy,” said Gretchen. “Mrs. Robinson is sick. Probably a coronary冠状动脉血栓形成.”“Why don’t you take her to see Dr. Sammy?” I suggested. “He can use his new doctor’s kit.”The phone rang, and I answered it. It was a friend of ourdaughter Kit. “Happy New Year, Marilyn,” I said. “What have you been doing over the holidays?” (Show an interest in your children’s friends.) She said she hadn’t been doing anything much. “(7)Come now, a pretty girl like you,” I said (9)jovially—(8)“I’ll bet the fellows are(10)swarming蜂群挤满涌往around.… What’s that Yes, of course you can speak to Kit. Certainly.”Kit was in her room with the record player going very loud, I (11)rapped敲击on the door. She called out something, and I went in. She was in her pajamas睡衣裤. “I didn’t say you could come in!”she (12)yelled, grabbing抓住 a robe睡袍 and holding it in front of her. At fourteen, she has become extremely aware of being female.“I’m sorry. I couldn’t understand you,” I said apologetically. To ease the situation, I picked up her (13)brand-new全新的 sweater毛衣运动衫 from the floor and put it over a chair.“I was going to pick it up,” she said defensively, “You don’t always put your things away.”There was a series of shrieks down the hall. I found Gretchen in tears. Roy and Sammy were about to perform open-heart surgery外科手术 on Mrs. Robinson with a scou搜索侦察跟踪t knife. “She told us Mrs. Robinson was sick,” Roy said.(9)I suggested that they carve切雕 something for their mother — like a salad spoon. (Encourage creativity in the young.) In the kitchen, Maggie wanted to know what was wrong with Gretchen. “Mrs. Robinson had a coronary,” I told her.“I know you’re not feeling your best after last night,” she said, “but I’m getting a little tired of these smart remarks. Would you mind taking the garbage out?”“I’d be happy to,” I said. (The most (14)trivial琐碎的平常的(15)chore零星工作令人讨厌的工作can prove rewarding if approached with (16)zest热情兴趣.)“Do you have to be so (17)sarcastic讽刺的挖苦的” she said.It seemed that my resolutions weren’t working the way the books had said. I didn’t quit, though. I helped the boys build a snowman — only Sammy got his feet wet and Roy lost his mittens露指手套 and they went inside. I played jacks玩游戏 with Gretchen, but she said I didn’t do it right. I (18)struck up 开始a conversation with Kit, trying to establish some kind of (19)rapport友好关系融洽和谐. I touched on hippies, pop music, dating, (20)morality and so on. She contributed very little. Anybody else (10)would have thrown in the sponge, but I kept trying. For example, Maggie always (21)dreads 害怕担心taking down拿取 the Christmas tree, so I thought I’d do it forher. (Take over接管帮忙 one of your wife’s chores, she’ll love you for it.)I was about two thirds done when Maggie came in. “Oh, no!” she cried. “I wanted it left up for the party tonight. Can’t you just sit and watch a football game, pleaseIt’s what you usually do on New Year’s.”“This year is different,” I said.“Yes, isn’t it?” She shook her head. “I swear I don’t know. The kids have been impossible all day. I found the boys (22)whittling 切削 on my best salad spoon, and then (12)they had the nerve to say you suggested it. And Kit has been (12)in a poisonous mood.
