Jerome was an English writer of the late 19th century and early 20th century. He was bornin 1859 and died in 1927. He published his first work in 1885, On Stage and Off, a collection of humorous sketches about the theater. In his lifetime he was also known as a journalist, playwright, and the founderof a magazine called The Idler. Today he is chiefly remembered as a humorist. His most famous books include The Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, Three Men in a Boat, and its sequel Three Men on the Bummel. 2. Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog)Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog), published in 1889, recounts the misadventures of three Victorian (维多利亚时代的) middle-class London-types men and one dog trying to have a boating vacation on the Thames. It is one of the most readable, and funny books of the era.A Victim of 107 Fatal Maladies身患107种致命疾病的患者- 2 -- 3 - 1 It is a most extraordinary thing, but I never read a patent medicine advertisement without being forced to draw the conclusion that I am suffering from the particular disease said in the ad and dealt with in its most deadly form. The diagnosis seems in every case to correspond exactly with all the sensations that I have ever felt.2 I remember going to the British Museum one day to read up on the treatment for some slight ailment of which I had a touch —hay fever, I fancy it was. I got down the book, and read all I came to read; and then, in an unthinking moment, I idly turned the leaves, and began to lazily study diseases, generally. I forget which was the first disease I plunged into —some fearful, devastating scourge , I know — and, before I had glanced half down the list of "warning symptoms", it was borne in upon me that I had fairly got it.3 I sat for a while, frozen with horror ; and then, in the listlessness of despair, I again turned over the pages. I came to typhoid fever —read the symptoms —discovered that I had typhoid fever, must have had it for months without knowing it — wondered what else I had got; turned up St. Vitus's Dance —found, as I expected, that I had that too —began to get interested in my case, and determined to examine it thoroughly, and so started alphabetically — read up on fever, and learnt that I was sickening for it, and that the acute stage would commence in about another fortnight . Bright's disease, I was relieved to find, I had only in a modified form, and, so far as that was concerned, I might live for years. Cholera I had, with severe complications ; and diphtheria I seemed to have been born with. I read conscientiously through the twenty-six letters, and the only malady I could conclude I had not got was housemaid 's knee.4 I felt rather hurt about this at first; it seemed somehow to be a sort of slight. Why hadn't I got housemaid's knee? Why this unpleasant reservation? After a while, however, less grasping feelings prevailed . I reflected that I had every other known malady in the pharmacology , and I grew less selfish, and determined to do without housemaid's knee. Gout , in its most malignant stage, it would appear, had seized me without my being aware of it; and zymosis I had evidently been suffering with from boyhood. There were no more diseases after zymosis, so I concluded there was nothing else the matter with me.5 I sat and pondered . I thought what an interesting case I must be from a medical point of view, what an acquisition I should be to a class! Students would have no need to "walk the hospitals", if they had me. I was a hospital in myself. All they need do would be to walk round me, and, after that, take their diploma .6 Then I wondered how long I had to live. I tried to examine myself. I felt my pulse. I could not at first feel any pulse at all. Then, all of a sudden, it seemed to start off. I pulled out my 1 此事绝对非同小可，只要我一看到专利药品的广告，就会不自觉地得出结论：我患上了广告中所说的疾病，并且已经病入膏肓。

Life of a Salesman

The portrait of Bill Porter
Part III Cultural Notes
Salesmanship: Sales promotion is an element of the marketing process that can close the sale of goods or services to a potential customer by providing the incentive to make a positive purchasing decision. Sales promotion, advertising, and salesmanship are the major techniques used in merchandising products to the public. Salesmanship often takes the form of a face-to-face encounter between the buyer and seller; the presentation is set up to convince customers that the product on sale is essential to their satisfaction. The lack of personal feedback between buyer and seller is sometimes considered a drawback of the advertising approach. Selling by telephone, although it is significantly less effective than personal selling, is still considered an important method of merchandising. In the 1980s, a growing promotional technique involved in-home shopping programs using cable television channels. In recent years with the help of the Internet online shopping is becoming popular.

College English Integrated CourseBook Three Unit OneChanges in the Way We LiveText A Changes in the Way We LiveObjectivesStudents will be able to:1.grasp the main idea (tolerance for solitude and energy made it possible for the writer's family to enjoy theirpleasant but sometimes harsh country life);2.appreciate the various techniques employed by the writer (comparison and contrast, topic sentencesfollowed by detail sentences, use of transitional devices, etc.);3.master the key language points and grammatical structures in the text;4.conduct a series of reading, listening, speaking and writing activities related to the theme of the unit. Time AllotmentPre-reading Tasks1.T asks Ss the following questions on the song Out in the Country:— What is the song about? (taking a break from city life, escaping from the crowd)— How is the song related to the theme of this unit? (The singer needs a break because the pace of life has quickened, the environment has been changed, and the old life style is gone.)2.1) Ss divide into three large groups, under each group smaller sub-groups may form. Each large group isassigned one of the following discussion topics:—Why do so many migrant workers (民工) move from the country to the city?— Why do city people buy apartments or houses in the suburbs, even in the countryside?2) After the discussion, speakers of some sub-groups report to class.3) T may sum up like this: People change their places of living because they look for things that theirprevious life is unable to provide. However, once life has been changed, they miss the good old days. 3.Ss do Cloze B in after-text exercises to learn about Americans' ideal of a country life. Then T leads in tothe study of Text A.Text Organization and AnalysisCollege English Integrated Course 1The author writes his piece in a clear and logical way. In many instances he employs the pattern of “one topic sentence + several detail sentences” structure.It’s easy for readers to grasp the main idea, and it is also proven effective for learner writers like our students.Sometimes the detail sentences run parallel to each other, like those in Para 2. In some other paragraphs the detail sentences have their own hierarchy. Take Para 5 for example. The first sentence tells how busy “I” am. The second sentence states that Sandy, the wife, is also busy. The final sentence is a kind of summary—nobody can relax. Yet following the second sentence there are a few more detail sentences showing exactly how tight a schedule Sandy has. Take Paras 12-13 for another example. The topic sentence therein is “I suspect not everyone who loves the country would be happy living the way we do. It takes a couple of special qualities.” Then there are two sub-topic sentences: “One is a tolerance for solitude”; “The other requirement is energy—a lot of it.” Each sub-topic sentence has its own supporting details.Sometimes there is no transitional devices between detail sentences, sometimes there are, the most frequently used one of which is time words or phrases. For example, the detail sentences in Para 4 begin with “three months ago”, “three months from now”, “recently”, and “later this month”, respectively. To be sure, other conjuncti ons scatter the text, like “first”, “then”, “then”, “eventually” in Para 7.Cultural Notes1.the countryside: The countryside of Britain is well known for its beauty and many contrasts: its baremountains and moorland, its lakes, rivers and woods, and its long, often wild coastline. Many of the most beautiful areas are national parks and are protected from development. When British people think of farmland, as well as open spaces, they imagine cows or sheep in green fields enclosed by hedges or stone walls, and fields of wheat and barley.Many people associate the countryside with peace and relaxation. They spend their free time walking or cycling there, or go to the country for a picnic or a pub lunch. Only a few people who live in the country work on farms. Many commute to work in towns. Many others dream of living in the country, where they believe they would have a better and healthier lifestyle.America has many areas of wild and beautiful scenery, and there are many areas, especially in the West in states like Montana and Wyoming, where few people live. In the New England states, such as Vermont and New Hampshire, it is common to see small farms surrounded by hills and green areas. In Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other Midwestern states, fields of corn or wheat reach to the horizon and there are many miles between towns.Only about 20% of Americans live outside cities and towns. Life may be difficult for people who live in the country. Services like hospitals and schools may be further away, and going shopping can mean driving long distances. Some people even have to drive from their homes to the main road where their mail is left in a box. In spite of the disadvantages, many people who live in the country say that they like the safe, clean, attractive environment. But their children often move to a town or city as soon as they can.As in Britain, Americans like to go out to the country at weekends. Some people go on camping or fishing trips, others go hiking in national parks.2.Fahrenheit scale: a scale of temperature, first established by the German physicist Gabriel Fahrenheit in1715. The unit of temperature is the degree Fahrenheit (°F), and 0°F was originally the coldest temperature Fahrenheit could achieve using a freezing mixture of salt and ice. On his scale, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F (under set atmospheric conditions). No longer used in scientific work, Fahrenheit temperatures still feature in everyday language; hot days "in the eighties", for example. To convert a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius (centigrade), subtract 32, then multiply by 5/9.3.Celsius scale: a scale of hotness, or temperature, first established by the Swedish scientist Anders Celsius(1701-1744) in 1742. On this scale, the unit of temperature is the degree Celsius (°C); water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C (under agreed standard atmospheric conditions), although when Celsius originally devised the scale he made 100°the boiling-point and 0° the freezing-point. The Celsius scale was formerly commonly known as the centigrade scale because of the 100 divisions between the freezing- andCollege English Integrated Course 2boiling-points of water. To convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit multiply by 9/5 and add 32.4.Ivy League: eight long-established colleges and universities in the United States with prestigiousacademic and social reputations. Members of the Ivy League are Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island; Columbia University in New York City; Cornell University in Ithaca, New York; Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire; Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts; University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia; Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey; and Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. The members of the Ivy League compete in intercollegiate athletics.5.Sports Illustrated: a popular US sports magazine published each week by Time Inc. part of Time Warner.It first appeared in 1954, and is read mainly by men. The magazine also publishes the Sports Illustrated Sports Almanac every year.6.Individual Retirement Account (IRA): a US government plan that allows people to put part of theirincome into special bank accounts. No tax has to be paid on this money until they retire.7.Buying Insurance: People face many choices when buying insurance policies. They commonly choose aninsurance provider based on several criteria. Some of the most important of these include: 1) the financial stability of the insurance company, 2) the price of policies, and 3) details of coverage and service.Only a financially sound company can fulfill its promise to pay in all circumstances. Companies with proven records of stability can provide insurance security. Choice of a provider based solely on price, on the other hand, may result in poor service and coverage, even if the provider advertises comprehensive coverage and high quality service.Policy prices vary significantly among companies, but competition usually forces most companies’ prices into a narrow range. The greater cost of some policies may pay off in the long run through better protection. Thus, a detailed examination of coverage in policies provided by different, well-regarded companies can help consumers make the best choice based on the risks they face, their needs, and their finances.People seeking to buy insurance often use the services of an insurance agent or broker to assist in their purchase. Most insurance falls into four main categories, according to what it covers: 1) property and casualty, 2) life, 3) health and disability, and 4) old-age and unemployment. Insurers commonly refer to insurance purchased by individuals as personal lines coverage and to insurance purchased by businesses as commercial coverage.Language Study1.get by: be good enough but not very good; manage to live or do things in a satisfactory way Examples:My parents managed to get by on a small amount of money.It is a little bit difficult for the old couple to get by on such a small pension.We can get by with four computers at the moment, but we'll need a couple more when the newstaff members arrive.2.... when it was 30 below: Here the Celsius scale is used instead of the Fahrenheit scale, (see CulturalNotes)3.indoor: situated or used inside a buildingExamples: Indoor pollution has been found to be as much as five to ten times higher inside some skyscrapers than outside.Tobacco smoke is considered as an indoor pollutant.The Mall of America, the biggest mall in USA includes the world's largest indoor amusementpark.4.pursue: followExamples: After graduation Martin chose to pursue the same career as his father as a minister.College students are advised to pursue a wide range of subjects.Public evening classes allow people to earn a living during the day and pursue vocational andintellectual interests in their spare time.5.get through: come successfully to the endExamples: The local government has taken some measures to ensure that all the people will get through the winter.She got through the entrance examination and was accepted by the college.College English Integrated Course 36.at that point: at that very moment, right thenExamples: The train was now only a couple of yards from the kids on the track.

Time AllotmentPre-reading Tasks1. Tasks Ss the following questions on the recording:What are the special contributions of Abraham, John and Martin to the Americans?(They all advocated black civil rights.)How did they die?(They were all assassinated.)2. Knowledge of Christianity:1) T explains that, for historical reasons, many black slaves believed in Christianity, like Uncle Tom in Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Therefore, in black writings there are frequent references to Christianity.2) T writes down the following vocabulary items on the blackboard: the Creator, and African American Moses, Quaker, Bible, Methodist minister, Bethlehem salvation.3) Ss self-study their meanings by reading the New Words and Expressions and Proper Names sections following the text.4) T checks Ss’ understanding and, if necessary, gives further guidance (see Text Analysis).3. Out-of-class research projects: T guides Ss through Writing Strategy, then tellsthem to form groups to research into the discussion questions in Part IV: theme-Related Language Learning Tasks by using library resources, the Internet and other resources. Each group member may focus on only one discussion question. They will share findings in a later class.4. Ss do Cloze B to get a better understanding of the Underground Railroad.Text Organization and AnalysisWhen we learn a foreign language, we must also learn the culture of the speakers of that language. Text A in this unit is a good case in point. Readers need some basic knowledge of Christianity. Some terms in this text are markedly Christian, like “Methodist Minister”, “Bible”, “Quaker”. Others refer to characters or places fro m Biblical stories, such as Moses who led the Jewish people out of slavery in Egypt, or Bethlehem, a holy city for Christian.The author tells three stories about the Underground Railroad and the early Black civil rights movement. The three stories are chosen because they are representative of all participants in this movement: John Parker is a freed slave who later turned into a courageous “conductor”; Levi Coffin is a brave white “conductor”; Josiah Henson is a slave who struggled his way to freedom with the help of the Underground Railroad.We learn about the name of Josiah Henson at the beginning of the text, yet his full story is not told until the last part. In this way the author achieves coherence of text.Direct speech is more convincing than indirect speech, especially when it comes to expressing personal beliefs. For example, the text quotes Levi Coffin saying “The Bible, in bidding us to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, said nothing about color.”On other occasion, direct speech makes a story more vivid. For example, in the John Parker story, characters spoke short sentences to stress the urgency of the situation. For another example, Josiah Henson threw himself to the ground and shouted to astonished onlookers: “Oh, no! Don’t you know? I’m free!” His joy affects us all.Cultural Notes1. Freedom and rights:Freedom of the individual is considered one of the essential features of westerncivilization, which is itself sometimes called the Free World. This freedom is often expressed in terms of rights to do certain things or to be treated in a particularly way. When a person does something that others think strange, British and American people will often say, “it’s a free country.” Meaning that although they disagree with the choice they recogniz e the other person’s right to make it.Americans sometimes call the US the “land of the freed”, a phrase taken from it national anthem.British people have always strongly defended their freedom. Fear that they will lose the freedom to decide their won fut ure is behind many people’s lack of enthusiasm for European unity.In Britain and the US the most basic rights include freedom of expression (=freedom to say or write anything), freedom of choice (=freedom to make decisions about your own life) and freedom of worship (=freedom to practice any religion).2. The civil rights movement: (in the US) the national campaign by African-Americans for equal rights,especially in the 1950s and 1960s. the campaign included boycotts( =refusal to buy particular products).The actions of freedom riders, and in 1963 a march to Washington led by Martin Luther King. It succeeded in causing the introduction of bussing and affirmative action. The Civil Rights Act of 1965 were also introduced as a result of the civil rights movement, which has helped to change the attitudes of many white American.3. the Civil Rights Act of 1964: the US law that forced the southern states to allow African-Americans toenter restaurants, hotels, etc. which had been reserved for white people only and to end the practice of having separate areas for black and white people in theatres, train stations, buses, etc. the act was mostly the result of civil rights movement and was strongly supported by President Lyndon Johnson. It was followed the next year by the V oting Rights Act.4. Uncle Tom’s Cabin: a novel (1852) by the US writer Harriet Beecher Stowe which increased support forthe movement to free slaves. It is about a kind slave called Tom who is badly treated and finally killed byCollege English Integrated Course 7Simon Legree. Tom’s daughter Little Eva also dies, and another well-known character in the novel is the slave child Topsy. The name Uncle Tom is sometimes used as and insult to describe an African-American who has too much respect for white people.5. the Underground Railroad: a secret system used in the US before the Civil War for helping thousands ofslaves to escape to the free northern states or Canada. The slaves were called “passengers”, the people who helped them were “conductors”, and the slaves hid in “stations” (safe houses) along the way.5.Slavery: Slavery played a particularly important role in the history of the US.The first slaves were taken to North America from Africa by the Dutch in 1619. By the time of the American Revolution (1775) there were 500,000 slaves, mostly in the South. After the Revolution the northern states made slavery illegal but the South needed cheap labor for the cotton plantations. Gradually the South’s economy became dependent on slaves and by 1860, the year before the Civil War, ther e were about 4 million slaves.Conflict between the North and the South increased, and it became clear that supporters and opponents of slavery could not continue to be part of the same country. In 1861 the slave states left the US and formed their own government. This was the beginning of the Civil.After the North won the Civil War and brought the southern states back into the US, slavery was ended. But little changed for former slaves. Some moved to the North but there were not enough jobs there and many suffered prejudice from Whites. Those that stayed in the South often worked on the plantations where they had been slaves. They were paid for their work, but had to buy food and clothes. Many had to stay there trying to pay off debts which became larger each year.6.Bill Clinton (1946- ): the 42nd US President, elected in 1992 and 1996. He is a Democrat and waspreviously the governor of Arkansas. The US economy improved under Clinton, and the North American Free Trade Agreement has been signed. His successes in helping to achieve world peace include the Camp David Agreement for the Near East and the Dayton Agreement to end the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina.His wife Hillary (1947- ) tried without success to improve the US health system. In 1998 President Clinton admitted that he had had a sexual relationship with Monical Lewinsky, a junior member of the Whit House staff, after denying it earlier. He was impeached for lying under oath and obstructing justice, but the senate judged him not guilty.7.Quaker: any member of the Society of Friends, a religious group established in England n the 1650s byGeorge Fox. They were originally called Quakers because members were thought to “quake” or shake with religious excitement. Quakers worship Christ without any formal ceremony or fixed beliefs, and their meetings often involve silent thought or prayer. They are strongly opposed to violence and war, and are active in education and charity work.8.Grand Central Terminal: the best-known railway station in the US. It is on East 42nd Street in New Yorkand was completed in 1913 in the American Beaux Arts style. The main area is very large, and the trains enter and leave the station on 123 tracks, arranged on two levels. The station is often very crowded: You can’t move in there--- it’s like Grand Central Station!9.Methodist: a member of the Methodist Church, the largest of the Protestant Free Churches in Britain andthe US. It was established in 1739 by John Wesley as part of the Church of England but it became separate from it in 1795. it was introduced into the US in the 18th century and today has over 50 million members around the world. It emphasized the importance of moral issues, both personal and social.10.the Deep South:the most southern states of the south-east US: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,Mississippi, South Carolina and eastern Texas. They are among the states that once had slaves and left the Union during the Civil War. They still have racial problems and the people there are mostly conservative in their politics and religion.Language Study1.slender: a.

Pre-reading Task:1. Background informationTom Hallman Jr., the author is a senior reporter specializing in features at The Oregonian. He joined the paper in 1980 and covered the police beat for a decade, longer than any reporter since the 1950s. While covering cops, Hallman began writing feature stories -- at first off the beat, then the stories of everyday people. He was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in beat reporting in 1995 and in feature writing in 1999. He has won the Ernie Pyle Award for human-interest writing, the ASNE Distinguished Writing Award for nondeadline writing (twice), the feature-writing award from the Society of Professional Journalists and the Livingston Award for Young Journalists.Bill Porter, the salesman in the story is a 65-year-old Portlander with cerebral palsy.
