Unit1 My FatherI don't really know my father. He isn't easy to get on with. He's quite self-centred, and a little bit vain, I think, and in some ways quite unapproachable. The public must think he's very easy-going, but at home he keeps himself to himself.He can't have been at home much when I was a child, because I don't remember much about him. He's always been slightly out of touch with family life. His work always came first, and he was always off somewhere acting or rehearsing. He loves being asked for his autograph, he loves to be recognised. He has won several awards, and he's very proud of that. He was made a Member of the British Empire, and we had to go to Buckingham Palace to get the medal. It was incredibly boring. There were hundreds of other people getting the same awards, and you had to sit there for hours. He shows off his awards to whoever comes to the house.I went to public school, and because of my total lack of interest and non-attendance I was asked to leave. I didn't want to go there in the first place. I was taken away from all my friends. He must have been very pleased to get me into the school, but in the end it was a complete waste of money. I let him down quite badly, I suppose. I tried several jobs but I couldn't settle down in them. Then I realised that what I really wanted to do was live in the country and look after animals, so that's what I now do.As a family, we're not that close, either emotionally or geographically. We don't see much of each other these days. My father and I are totally different, like chalk and cheese. My interests have always been the country, but he's into books, music and above all, opera, which I hate. If they do come to see us, they're in completely the wrong clothes for the country-mink coats, nice little leather shoes, not exactly ideal for long walks across the fields.He was totally opposed to me getting married. He was hoping we would break up. Gerald's too humble, I suppose. He must have wanted me to marry someone famous, but I didn't, and that's all there is to it. We don't want children, but my father keeps on and on talking about wanting grandchildren. You can't make someone have children just because you want grandchildren.I never watch him on television. I'm not that interested, and anyway he usually forgets to tell me when he's on.我实在不了解我的父亲,与他相处很难。

Audiovisual SupplementWatch the movie clip and answer the following questions.Script:Narrator: A German factory builds one of the world‘s most famous cars. The 911 is the icon of the sports car industry. It‘s the shape, it‘s the engine in the back, it‘s the feel it gives you, it‘s the emotion. The factory runs like a precision machine, building hundreds of engines a day. The product and our manufacturing process are one unit, and that‘s our secret of success. Automation, technology and skilled human labor combine to build 16 versions of the Porsche 911, including the 911 GT3.Questions:1. Where is the engine of the 911?In the back of the car.2. What‘s the secret of success of that factory?The product and their manufacturing process are one unit. Automation, technology and skilled human labor combine to build the Porsche 911. And the factory runs like a precision machine.II. Cultural Background1. Car culture has been a major niche lifestyle in America.2. In the 1950s, the post-war boom produced a generation of teenagers with enough income to buy their own cars. These cars became so much more than just modes of transportation. They were reflections of a lifestyle. The ability to tune and soup-up muscle cars gave average Joes the opportunity to show off their power, their speed and their style in a way that personified the car as character.3. Like Granny in Jan and Dean's 1964 song ―The Little Old Lady from Pasadena,‖ we can't keep our foot off the accelerator.4. We are crazy about our cars —and always have been. ―The American,‖William Faulkner lamented in 1948, ―really loves nothing but his automobile.‖5. We dream of cars as we dream of lovers.6. Americans have always cherished personal freedom and mobility, rugged individualism and masculine force.Section Two Global ReadingI.Text AnalysisMain Idea―Out of Step‖ is an exposition that presents the absurdity of the Americans‘ dependence on cars. The Americans, being so accustomed to using cars, have almost forgotten the existence of their legs. Wherever they go, they go in their cars. As a result, pedestrian facilities are neglected in city planning or rejected by the inhabitants.II. Structural AnalysisParagraph 1-6 The writer introduces his idea with an anecdote.Paragraphs 7-13 In this part, the author presents the fact that the Americans are habituated to using cars for everything. Paragraphs 14-20 In this part, the author explains that pedestrian facilities are neglected or discarded.Section Three Detailed ReadingI.Text 1Out of StepBill Bryson1After living in England for 20 years, my wife and I decided to move back to the United States. We wanted to live in a town small enough that we could walk to the business district, and settled on Hanover, N.H., a typical New England town —pleasant, sedate and compact. It has a broad central green surrounded by the venerable buildings of Dartmouth College, an old-fashioned Main Street and leafy residential neighborhoods.2It is, in short, an agreeable, easy place to go about one‘s business on foot, and yet as far as I can tell, virtually no one does.3Nearly every day, I walk to the post office or library or bookstore, and sometimes, if I am feeling particularly debonair, I stop at Rosey Jekes Caféfor a cappuccino. Occasionally, in the evenings, my wife and I stroll up to the Nugget Theatre for a movie or to Murphy‘s on the Green for a beer, I wouldn‘t dream of going to any of these places by car. People have gotten used to my eccentric behavior, but in the early days acquaintances would often pull up to the curb and ask if I wanted a ride.4―I‘m going your way,‖ they would insist when I politely declined. ―Really, it‘s no bother.‖5―Honestly, I enjoy walking.‖6―Well, if you‘re sure,‖ they would say and depart reluctantly, even guiltily, as if leaving the scene of an accident without giving their name.7In the United States we have become so habituated to using the car for everything that it doesn‘t occur to us to unfurl our legs and see what those lower limbs can do. We have reached an age where college students expect to drive between classes, where parents will drive three blocks to pick up their children from a friend‘s house, where the letter carrier takes his van up and down every driveway on a street.8We will go through the most extraordinary contortions to save ourselves from walking. Sometimes it‘s almost ludicrous. The other day I was waiting to bring home one of my children from a piano lesson when a car stopped outside a post office, and a man about my age popped out and dashed inside. He was in the post office for about three or four minutes, and then came out, got in the car and drove exactly 16 feet (I had nothing better to do, so I paced it off) to the general store6 next door.9And the thing is, this man looked really fit. I‘m sure he jogs extravagant distances and plays squash and does all kinds of healthful things, but I am just as sure that he drives to each of these undertakings.10An acquaintance of ours was complaining the other day about the difficulty of finding a place to park outside the local gymnasium. She goes there several times a week to walk on a treadmill. The gymnasium is, at most, a six-minute walk from her front door.11I asked her why she didn‘t walk to the gym and do six minutes less on the treadmill.12She looked at me as if I were tragically simple-minded and said, ―But I have a program for the treadmill. It records my distance and speed and calorie burn rate, and I can adjust it for degree of difficulty.‖13I confess it had not occurred to me how thoughtlessly deficient nature is in this regard.14According to a concerned and faintly horrified 1997 editorial in the Boston Globe, the United States spent less than one percent of its transportation budget on facilities for pedestrians. Actually, I‘m surprised it was that much. Go to almost any suburb developed in the last 30 years, and you will not find a sidewalk anywhere. Often you won‘t find a single pedestrian crossing.15I had this brought home to me one summer when we were driving across Maine and stopped for coffee in one of those endless zones of shopping malls, motels, gas stations and fast-food places. I noticed there was a bookstore across the street, so I decided to skip coffee and head over.16Although the bookshop was no more than 70 or 80 feet away, I discovered that there was no way to cross on foot without dodging over six lanes of swiftly moving traffic. In the end, I had to get in our car and drive across.17At the time, it seemed ridiculous and exasperating, but afterward I realized that I was possibly the only person ever to have entertained the notion of negotiating that intersection on foot.18The fact is, we not only don‘t walk anywhere anymore in this country, we won‘t walk anywhere, and woe to anyone who tries to make us, as the city of Laconia, N.H., discovered. In the early 1970s, Laconia spent millions on a comprehensive urban renewal project, which included building a pedestrian mall to make shopping more pleasant. Esthetically it was a triumph —urban planners came from all over to coo and take photos--but commercially it was a disaster. Forced to walk onewhole block from a parking garage, shoppers abandoned downtown Laconia for suburban malls.19In 1994 Laconia dug up its pretty paving blocks, took away the tubs of geraniums and decorative trees, and brought back the cars. Now people can park right in front of the stores again, and downtown Laconia thrives anew.20And if that isn‘t sad. I don‘t know what is.II. Questions1)What kind of town is it? (Paragraph 1)It is a small, pleasant and agreeable town. The inhabitants are friendly and willing to help.But although the town is compact, few people go about on foot.2)What is considered the author‘s ―eccentric behavior‖? (Paragraph 3)Instead of riding a car, the author walks around the city, doing his shopping, going to themovies or visiting the café or bar. To people who are used to going everywhere in a car, he is an eccentric.3)Why would drivers ―depart reluctantly, even guiltily‖when their offer was declined?(Paragraphs 3-6)With cars becoming the basic essentials of their life, people are so habituated to using the car for everything. The scene of somebody walking around seemed so unusual to them that they would naturally show their concern to him. When their offer to give him a ride was declined, they were sorry for not being able to help him out.4) Why did the author say ―Actually, I‘m surprised it was that much‖? (Paragraph 14)When the author found that the newly planned suburbs totally overlooked pedestrian needs, he assumed there was no budget for pedestrian facilities at all. So he says he was surprised to learn that there actually was less than one percent of budget on it. Here the author writes with a touch of irony.5) Why did Laconia change its downtown pedestrian mall to one with parking lots? (Paragraphs18-19)Although the pedestrian mall was well decorated, shoppers were unwilling to walk to the stores from a parking garage. As a result, it was a commercial failure. The government had to compromise with the public preference.Class ActivityGroup discussion: What does the title mean?With the use of this title, the writer seems to suggest1. people no longer walk in America;2. the few people who do walk seem to be old-fashioned and ―eccentric‖.III. Words and ExpressionsParagraphs 1-6sedate a. calm, serious and formale.g. She is a sedate old lady; she is caring but never talks much.The fight against a nuclear power station site has transformed a normally sedate town into a battlefield.v. make calm or sleepy, esp. with a druge.g. The patient was heavily sedated and resting quietly in bed.Derivation: sedately (ad.), sedation (n.), sedative (a., n.)eccentric a.(of people or behavior) unconventional and slightly strangee.g. The old gentleman, who lived alone all his life, was said to have some eccentric habits.n. a person of unconventional and slightly strange views or behaviore.g. The old gentleman enjoyed a colorful reputation as an engaging eccentric.curb n.

Their work is excellent, and they’re very reasonable.They’re across the street.Julia: Thanks so much for your help. I appreciate it.Mark: No problem. See you around!Part 4 Having Things DonePassage 1 Paoding Carves up a CowOne time, a butcher named Paoding was commissioned to butcher a cow for King Hui. As he worked,his movements were graceful and faultless. The sound of the knife between the bones was like a whisper inthe night. When Paoding was finished, the cow didn’t even know it was dead. The king said, “Your skill isamazing”. Paoding said, “It was nothing really. When I butcher a cow, it’s notskill that I use, it is the Dao.When I first took up th e butcher’s trade, what I saw was the whole cow. But after I had been at it for a fewyears and butchered a good number of cows, what I saw was no longer the whole cow, but just its skeletalstructure. Ever since then, I stopped using my eyes and used my mind instead, tointuit my way around thecow. The good cook changes knives every year, because he merely chops but doesn’t hack. Because I neitherhack nor chop, I have used this same knife for 19 years, and it’s still like new. My knife glides in and outbetween the bone joints, moving as it pleases; so, the cow suffers no pain and in the end, doesn’t even knowit is dead.” The king was enlightened. He understood the good way of living one’s life. The complexities oflife are like the skeletal structure of the cow, and those who don’t understand how to approach them end uprunning around in circles, wasting all their energy.Passage 2 The Beginning of StampsRowland Hill, a schoolmaster in England, was the first to put forward a proposal to use stamps. Hethought it would be much easier for people to use stamps to cover postage. They could go to the nearby postoffice to buy stamps and put them on envelops before they sent the letters. The post office could simply putseals on the stamps so that people could not use the stamps again. In this way, the post office did not needto send postmen to collect postage. It only needed to send postmen to deliver letters. That was a good ideaand the government finally accepted it.Passage 3 “Dry” CleaningDespite its name, dry cleaning is actually not a dry process. Clothes are washed in liquid chemicals, butwithout water, and that is why the process became known as dry cleaning. But who came up with this idea,and how did it happenThe invention of dry cleaning was an accident. In 1855, a Frenchman named Jean Baptiste Jolly made adiscovery: a lamp filled with kerosene fell on a greasy cloth in his home. Kerosene is a type of oil that burnswell. When the kerosene dried, the cloth was cleaner where the liquid had been.Based on this discovery, people began to use chemicals to clean clothes. But most of these chemicals,such as kerosene and gasoline, could easily catch on fire, so dry cleaning was very dangerous.In the 1930s, people started to use a new chemical called perchloroethylene, or perc for short. This chemicaldidn’t catch on fire easily, so it was much safer than the earlier ones. It is still used today by most drycleaners.Lesson 2Part 1 Find a Good Courier ServiceSteve: Hey, Maya, can you recommend a courier service I need to send this package. Maya: Sure, Steve. Why don’t you have Pack Express take care of itSteve: Do you think that they can get it to Lima overnightMaya: They must be able to. They have service all over South America. They’re really reliable.Steve: I should have asked you for a recommendation earlier! Last week I used Aero Fast, but theywere expensive and not very efficient.Part 2 It is Urgent.Anna: Hello. Can I help youGreg: I hope so. This photo is too small. Can you enlarge itAnna: Absolutely.Greg: I need this done right away. Do you have express serviceAnna: Sure. When do you need itGreg: Well, can you do it in an hour It’s urgent.Anna: Let me see…is 4:30 OKGreg: It is great. Thanks. I really appreciate it.Part 3 News and IntroductionPassage 1 Book of the MonthHome and Family magazine talked to Pamela Darby, author of the new book Time Management. Here’ssome of the advice that she gives:Making time for special treatments and things you enjoy is important. You make time for a lot of thingsthat you don’t enjoy, like work and housecleaning. Choose something that you really like to have done,make an appointment, and go. You could get your nails done or have someone massage your back. Theimportant thing is to choose something that you enjoy having done.Accept offers of help. People are so used to doing things on their own, that they don’t think aboutletting people help them. If someone asks, “How can I help” tell them what you need done! For example,if you’re planning a class party for one of your children, get some of the other parents to bring food. Whensomeone offers to watch the kids, let them do it.But, you don’t have to wait for people to offer to help. Assign responsibilities to other family members.Have your spouse drop off the dry cleaning on the way to work. Get your kids to help around the house.Even young children can be responsible for certain tasks, such as putting away their toys or setting the table.Passage 2 The Beginnings of Mass ProductionUntil the early twentieth century, the normal method of manufacturing was that one person produceda whole item. This system was transformed by Frederick W. Taylor, an American engineer who developedthe theory of scientific management. His aim was to make factory work as fast and efficient as possible: increasing workers’ productivity in this way would mean that large quantities of goods could bemanufactured cheaply.Taylor recommended that the manufacturing process should be broken down into tasks, and that workersshould specialize in particular tasks, instead of making the whole item. Through this division of labor, eachworker would become very good at certain activities. Henry Ford, the American car manufacturer, was thefirst industrialist to base product ion on Taylor’s ideas. Although this approachkeeps production costs to aminimum, it has been blamed for making factory work boring.Passage 3 Lost LuggageApproximately one airline passenger in every thousand arrives at their destination to find that some orall of their baggage has not arrived with them. For many passengers this means a waitof hours or days,with all the associated inconvenience, whilst the missing item is being located and forwarded. Others, lessfortunate still, have to resign themselves to the fact that their bags are actuallylost and, as the days turn intoweeks, face the fact that they are unlikely ever to see them again.To prevent loss, or at least assist recovery, passengers are urged to make sure that identification tags aresecure and up-to-date, an itinerary with addresses is enclosed and that bags are distinguishable from othersof the same make. Airlines recommend the use of colored tape or large elasticatedstraps made specificallyfor this purpose.Lost or delayed luggage actually costs the world’s airlines over £ 6 billion per year. They get some ofthis back, however, by selling off those lost items which are never claimed by their rightful owners. Aftermonths of intensive tracking, airlines send hopelessly lost luggage to companies which sort the contentsand then put them on sale at bargain prices. At one such company in Alabama, the leftovers of flying are laidout in a vast store, which has itself now become an attraction for tourists from all over the world. Whoknows, they may even come across some of their own stuff.。

Cape Town became a British colony in 1806. European settlement expanded during the
1820s as the Boers (Original Dutch, Flemish, German and French Settlers.) and the British Settlers claimed land in the north and east of the country. Within the country, anti-British policies among white South Africans focused on independence. South Africa achieved its political independence in 1961 when it was declared a republic. In 1994 South Africa held its first democratic election. Nelson Mandela and the African National Congress (ANC) came to power, and the country rejoined the Commonwealth of Nations.

3 Nearly every day, I walk to the post office or library or bookstore, and sometimes, if I am fபைடு நூலகம்eling particularly debonair, I stop at Rosey Jekes Café for a cappuccino. Occasionally, in the evenings, my wife and I stroll up to the Nugget Theatre for a movie or to Murphy’s on the Green for a beer, I wouldn’t dream of going to any of these places by car. People have gotten used to my eccentric behavior, but in the early days acquaintances would often pull up to the curb and ask if I wanted a ride. ―I’m going your way,‖ they would insist when I 4 politely declined. ―Really, it’s no bother.‖

―Honestly, I enjoy walking.‖ 5 6 ―Well, if you’re sure,‖ they would say and depart reluctantly, even guiltily, as if leaving the scene of an accident without giving their name. 7 In the United States we have become so habituated to using the car for everything that it doesn’t occur to us to unfurl our legs and see what those lower limbs can do. We have reached an age where college students expect to drive between classes, where parents will drive three blocks to pick up their children from a friend’s house, where the letter carrier takes his van up and down every driveway on a street.

1. Car culture has been a major niche lifestyle in America. 2. In the 1950s, the post-war boom produced a generation of teenagers with enough income to buy their own cars. These cars became so much more than just modes of transportation. They were reflections of a lifestyle. The ability to tune and soup-up muscle cars gave average Joes the opportunity to show off their power, their speed and their style in a way that personified the car as character.
4. We are crazy about our cars — and always have been. ―The American,‖ William Faulkner lamented in 1948, ―really loves nothing but his automobile.‖ 5. We dream of cars as we dream of lovers. 6. Americans have always cherished personal freedom and mobility, rugged individualism and masculine force.

Narrator: A German factory builds one of the world’s most famous cars. The 911 is the icon of the sports car industry. It’s the shape, it’s the engine in the back, it’s the feel it gives you, it’s the emotion. The factory runs like a precision machine, building hundreds of engines a day. The product and our manufacturing process are one unit, and that’s our secret of success. Automation, technology and skilled human labor combine to build 16 versions of the Porsche 911, including the 911 GT3.

Out of Step Bill Bryson After living in England for 20 years, my wife and I 1 decided to move back to the United States. We wanted to live in a town small enough that we could walk to the business district, and settled on Hanover, N.H., a typical New England town — pleasant, sedate and compact. It has a broad central green surrounded by the venerable buildings of Dartmouth College, an old-fashioned Main Street and leafy residential neighborhoods. It is, in short, an agreeable, easy place to go about 2 one’s business on foot, and yet as far as I can tell, virtually no one does.
Text Analysis
Structural Analysis
―Out of Step‖ is an exposition that presents the absurdity of the Americans’ dependence on cars. The Americans, being so accustomed to using cars, have almost forgotten the existence of their legs. Wherever they go, they go in their cars. As a result, pedestrian facilities are neglected in city planning or rejected by the inhabitants.

8 We will go through the most extraordinary contortions to save ourselves from walking. Sometimes it’s almost ludicrous. The other day I was waiting to bring home one of my children from a piano lesson when a car stopped outside a post office, and a man about my age popped out and dashed inside. He was in the post office for about three or four minutes, and then came out, got in the car and drove exactly 16 feet (I had nothing better to do, so I paced it off) to the general store next door.
