When the final student was seated he picked up a large and empty glass bottle and filled it with rocks. He then asked the students if thejar was full . They agreed that it was.2 He then picked up a box of pebbles and added them to the jar, shaking it lightly. The pebbles, of course rolled intothe open areas between the rocks. After that he poured some sand into bottle. The sand filled ineverything else. Finally he took 2 cans of beer and poured it into the jar.3 Through this the professor wanted his students to recognize that this jar representsour life. The rocks are the important things in our life, like our family, our health … things that would still remaineven if everything else were lost, and our life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter— like our job or our house. The sand is the small stuff in our life. If we put the sand into the jar first there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. So he told his students to set their priorities and pay attention to things that are criticalto their happiness: their family, their health … The else is just sand.Read and ExploreTask One Discovering the Main Ideas1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text A.1) Why does Helen Keller think that it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow?Because she believes that such an attitude would emphasize sharply the value of life.2) According to Helen Keller, what is the right way tolive each day?According to Helen Keller, we should live each day with a gentleness, a vigour, and a keenness of appreciation.3) What does Helen Keller mean by saying that most of us take life for granted?Although we all know that we will die sooner or later, we tend to picture that day as far in the future. So, we go about our petty tasks, hardly aware of our listless attitude towards life. In other words, we take life for granted.4) What does Helen Keller think of the attitude that most of us adopt towards our faculties and senses?She thinks that we tend to take our abilities to see and hear for granted and seldom make the fullest use of these blessed faculties. That is why we often fail to make our life fuller and richer.5) Why does Helen Keller think that it would be a blessing if each of us were stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during our early adult life?Because darkness would make us more appreciative of sight and silence would teach us the joys of sound.2 Text A can be divided into two parts with the paragraph number(s) of each part provided as follows. Write down the main idea of each part.Part: One; Paragraph(s): 1- 4; Main Idea: Most of us take life for granted.

(Para. 5)This is especially true of the people who have becomeblind and deaf after they have grown up.4) To me the colorful seasons are a thrilling and unending drama, the action of which streams through my finger tips. (Para. 8)It seems to me that the change of seasons is like an exciting drama and I can fully appreciate what is going on there just by my sense of touch.5) It is human, perhaps, to appreciate little that which we have and to long for that which we have not. (Para. 9) Perhaps, it is human nature that we do not truly cherish the things we already have but are always eager to get what we do not have.Checking Your VocabularyWord Detective1 Choose the definition in Column B that best matches each italicized word in Column A.1)b2)f3)d4) h5) j6) a7) i8)c2 The table below contains approximate synonyms and antonyms for some words from Text B.

We're studying Unit 5 in our Big Uni English Book, and it's all about "Culture Shock".So like, have you ever been to a new place and felt like everything was totally different from what you're used to? That's basically what culture shock is all about. It's like when you go to adifferent country and people are talking in a different language, eating strange food, or doing things in a way that you're not used to.In the unit, we learned all about the different stages of culture shock - like the "Honeymoon Stage" when everything is new and exciting, the "Frustration Stage" when you start getting annoyed with all the differences, and finally the "Adjustment Stage" when you start getting used to the new culture and feeling more comfortable.We also talked about some ways to cope with culture shock, like being open-minded, learning about the new culture, and trying new things. It's all about embracing the differences and making the most of your experience in a new place.So yeah, that's what we learned in Unit 5 today. It was pretty cool to learn all about culture shock and how to deal with it. I can't wait to travel to a new place and put all this new knowledge to use!篇3Title: My Thoughts on Unit 5 of College English Integrated Coursebook 2Hey guys! Today I want to share with you all about what I learned in Unit 5 of our College English Integrated Coursebook 2. This unit is all about “The Internet and Social Media”, which is super cool because we all love to use the internet, right?First off, the unit talks about the history of the internet and how it has changed our lives. Did you know that the internet was firs t invented in the 1960s? That’s way before we were even born! It’s crazy to think about how much it has grown since then.Next, we learned about social media and how it has become a big part of our daily lives. We talked about different social media pl atforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. It’s so fun to connect with friends and share photos and videos with them, isn’t it?But we also talked about the dangers of the internet and social media. We learned about cyberbullying and online scams, w hich are really important to be aware of. It’s so sad that some people use the internet to hurt others.Overall, I had a lot of fun learning about the internet and social media in Unit 5. It’s such a big part of our lives now, so it’s important to understand how to use it safely. I can’t wait to see what we learn next in our College English class!That’s all for now, see you next time! Bye!篇4Hey guys, have you ever wondered what it's like to study at university? Well, let me tell you all about it! In Unit 5 of our English textbook, we learned all about university life and the different subjects we can study.First of all, going to university is super cool because we get to choose what we want to study. There are so many subjects to choose from like English, Math, Science, History, and even Art! We can pick the subjects that we are really interested in and learn all about them.But going to university is not just about studying, it's also about making new friends and having fun. There are so many clubs and activities to join, like sports teams, drama clubs, and even cooking classes. It's a great way to meet new people and have a break from all the studying.One of the best things about university is that we get to live in dorms or apartments with our friends. We can decorate our rooms however we want and have sleepovers and movie nights whenever we feel like it. It's like having a big sleepover every night!So, if you ever get the chance to go to university, don't be scared because it's an amazing experience. You get to learn new things, make new friends, and have the time of your life. Just remember to study hard, have fun, and enjoy every moment of it!篇5Title: My Day at the UniversityHey guys! Today I wanna tell you all about my day at the university. It was super duper fun and I learned a lot of cool stuff!First off, in the morning, I had my English class. We learned about different types of writing and even did a fun activity where we had to write a short story. I wrote about a talking dog who went on an adventure to find his lost bone. It was so fun!After English class, I had math class. I know math can be super boring sometimes, but my teacher made it really interesting. We learned about fractions and played a game where we had to solve math problems to win points. I ended up winning a prize for getting the most answers right!For lunch, I had a yummy sandwich and some fruit in the cafeteria. I sat with my friends and we chatted about our classesand what we wanted to do after school. It was nice to relax and hang out with them.In the afternoon, I had a science lab. We got to do experiments with different chemicals and learn about how they react with each other. It was so cool to see the colors change and bubbles form. I felt like a real scientist!After my last class, I headed home feeling happy and excited for the next day at the university. I can't wait to learn even more new things and have more fun with my friends. University is the best!篇6Hey guys! Today, I wanna talk about Unit 5 in our English textbook. It's all about technology and how it affects our lives. So, let's dive in!First off, technology is everywhere nowadays. We use smartphones, tablets, and computers all the time. It's so cool how we can connect with people from all over the world with just a few clicks. But sometimes, I think we spend too much time on our devices. We need to remember to take breaks and spend time with our friends and family in person.Next, social media is a big part of technology. We use apps like Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok to share our life with others. It's fun to see what our friends are up to, but we need to be careful too. Not everything we see online is true, so we need to be smart about what we believe.Another thing to think about is how technology can help us learn. We can research any topic we're interested in, and there are so many educational apps and websites out there. We should take advantage of these tools to improve our knowledge and skills.In conclusion, technology is a powerful tool that can make our lives easier and more fun. But we also need to use it responsibly and remember to balance screen time with real-life activities. So, let's make the most of technology while also living our best lives offline. Thanks for listening, and keep learning!篇7Title: My Adventure in Unit 5 of College English Comprehensive CourseYo guys! Today, I wanna share with you all about my adventure in Unit 5 of our College English Comprehensive Course. It was like, totally awesome!So, first of all, we learned about different cultures and traditions from around the world. Like, did you know that in Japan they have this crazy festival called Hanami where they celebrate the beauty of cherry blossoms? And in India, they have this super cool festival called Holi where they throw colored powders at each other? It was so rad learning about all these cool traditions!Next, we had to read this article about climate change and how it's affecting the planet. It was kinda scary to think about how our actions can impact the environment, but it was also really important to learn about it so we can try to make a difference.Then, we had this super fun group project where we had to create a presentation about a famous historical figure. My group chose Rosa Parks and it was so cool to learn about her and how she fought for civil rights. We even dressed up as her for our presentation!Overall, Unit 5 was like, the bomb dot com! I learned so much cool stuff and had a blast doing it. Can't wait to see what adventures await in the next unit! Peace out!篇8Hello everyone, I'm a primary school student and today I want to talk about the topic of Unit 5 in College English Integrated Course 2!Unit 5 is all about technology and how it affects our lives. Technology is super cool, right? We can use smartphones to play games, watch videos, and even chat with our friends. But it also has some bad sides, like making us spend too much time on screens and forgetting to go outside and play.In this unit, we learned about different types of technology, like computers, tablets, and robots. We also talked about how technology can help us in different ways, like making our lives easier and connecting us with people from all over the world.One thing I found super interesting is how technology can be used to solve problems. For example, scientists use technology to study the environment and find ways to protect the Earth. It's amazing how something as simple as a computer can help us save the planet!I think it's important to learn about technology and how to use it wisely. We should remember to balance our screen time with real-life activities, like playing outside and spending time with our families. Technology is great, but we should alwaysremember to use it in a way that benefits us and the world around us.That's all for today! I hope you enjoyed my little talk about Unit 5. Thanks for listening!篇9Hello everybody, I'm here to tell you about my experience in unit 5 of the College English Integrated Course 2. This unit is all about dreams and goals, and it really got me thinking about what I want to achieve in life.First of all, we learned about setting goals and making plans to achieve them. I realized that it's important to have a clear idea of what I want to accomplish and to break it down into smaller steps. For example, I want to become a doctor in the future, so I need to study hard in school, get good grades, and go to medical school. It seems like a long way off, but I know that if I work hard and stay focused, I can make it happen.We also talked about the importance of staying positive and never giving up on our dreams. Sometimes things might not go as planned, but it's important to stay determined and keep pushing forward. I know that there will be challenges along theway, but I believe that I can overcome them and achieve my goals.Overall, I really enjoyed learning about dreams and goals in unit 5. It's inspired me to work even harder and keep striving towards my dreams. I know that with determination and perseverance, I can make my dreams a reality. So, don't be afraid to dream big and never give up on your goals! Keep pushing forward and you'll be amazed at what you can achieve. Thank you for listening to my little story, and I hope you feel inspired to chase your own dreams too!篇10Title: My Thoughts on Unit 5 of College English Comprehensive Course 2Hey guys! Today I want to talk to you about Unit 5 of College English Comprehensive Course 2. This unit is all about technology and how it impacts our lives. It’s super interesting!First, we learned about the benefits of technology, like how it helps us communicate with people from all over the world. We can send messages instantly and have video calls with our friends and family. It’s so cool!But there are also some drawbacks to technology. We talked about how it can be addictive and distracting. I know sometimes I spend too much time on my phone instead of doing my homework. Oops!We also learned about the importance of being safe online. We have to be careful about what we share on social media and who we talk to. It’s important to protect our personal information.Overall, I think technology is pretty great, but we have to use it responsibly. We should set limits on our screen time and be mindful of how we use it. It’s important to find a balance between being online and spending time in the real world.That’s all for now! Thanks for listening to my thoughts on Unit 5. Bye!。
