An opportunity for individuality/ independence vanishes.2. No.3. Through the clothing he or she wears.4. Clothes should be carefully chosen so as not to reveal what is within.5. Clothing can help older people feel better about themselves and present a positive image to those around them.ScriptClothes make the man“Clothes make the man? runs the old proverb. If you believe that, you might feel that clothing enhances appearance, increases independence, allows for function, and provides comfort. What’s more, clothing that is neat and clean, fits well, and feels good can boost anyone’s morale.People express their personality in many ways, including through their clothing, hair style, and accessories. That’s why clothes often define the person. Clothes can indicate personalit y, status, and attitude to life. A man may have worn a beard all his life, a woman may have worn makeup. If their ability to choose their appearance is taken away, then an opportunity for independence/individuality vanishes. Keeping some familiar clothes and personal articles helps them retain some sense of self-control over what is happening. Research shows that when a woman dresses for success, it does not guarantee success, but if she dresses poorly or inappropriately, it almost always ensures failure.Our clothes are very much part of our personality. Clothing protects people from humidity, heat, and cold, and helps them feel physically comfortable. Clothing at the same time gives the wearer a sense of well-being. It tells something about the person. Clothing also affects the way others see, think of, and react to the person. A person can be comfortable or uncomfortable wearing a certain garment or type of clothing in a social situation. Social comfort may be involved when a person wishes to “make an impression” through the clothing he or she wears. So, clothes should be carefully chosen so as not to reveal what is within.Before making choices about clothing, it is important to understand how clothing affects people. For example, making decisions about cl othing can increase older people’s sense of independence and help them feel better about themselves. The stereotype says older people don’t care about their appearance. But, research shows that most older people think of themselves as younger than they are, their sense of fashion reflects their youthful thinking and the fashion of earlier years when they were younger, and they like clothing that looks good on them. Clothing can help older people feel better about themselves and present a positive image to those around them. Sending positive appearance messages may increase older people’s opportunities for social interaction.Real World Listening1. PredictAnswer□The outfits she should take along for her trip.1.

I’m always pleased to help.Sue: I have an international conference to attend in Norway, and I’m going to stay there for two weeks. But I have no clothes for that cold climate. I know you’ve been to Northern Europe, so I need your suggestions about the (1) outfits I should take along.Ann: OK. You’ve found the right person. Let’s see. You’ll be gone for two weeks, so you’ll need (2) several changes of business suits. No doubt, there’ll be a few parties and (3) social gatherings while you?e there, so you’ll need some evening dresses for tho se special occasions. Am I right? Sue: Yes, I’m sure you are. But what should I wear for those rather (4) elegant banquets and dances during the conference?Ann: No problem. I’ll help (5) outfit you completely before you go. Let’s start with your business suits and dresses. You’ll want them warm, of course, but you won’t want them to be too much trouble to care for, so (6) all wool is out.Sue: I guess I’d better (7) stick to conservative colors and patterns, and I’d like to (8) coordinate some skirts and blouses so that I can wear the same outfit in several different ways.Ann: That’s exactly what I had in mind. I think a (9) smartly tailored navy blue suit would suit you. It has a (10) casual look, yet it can be worn with a matching white blouse or light blue blouse to give it a more professional look. You can wear it to any of your meetings, with or without the blouse.Sue: If I add a few (11) cardigans and a scarf to go with it, I can wear it on different occasions. How about something in blue?Ann: Wha t do you think of a (12) synthetic blend dress? It’s warm, yet quite lightweight. It’s especially convenient for travel. And the best thing is that you can wash it right in your hotel room, hang it up, and it will dry (13) wrinkle-free overnight.Sue: I th ink I’ll also get one or two designer gowns. I won’t look out of place in them there, will I? Ann: No, you won’t. Though you don’t want to (14) draw undue attention, you’ll want to look (15) professional and festive at the same time. A couple of lively colored dresses will give you a nice change from time to time.Sue: Right. I can’t believe I’m doing this. I’m going to buy several new outfits and double my wardrobe -- all for a two-week trip!Unit 4 An outsider looking inV ocabulary TaskScript and Answers1.

Otherwise we look impolite, angry or gloomy.2. A: We consider clothes a symbol of material status and people are dressed neat and originalB: You wouldn’t believe my astonishment when I first came here. People wear very simp le clothes; they actually look rather careless.A: Here even very, very rich people wear simple clothes.B: They like those clothes that are convenient, like Y-shirts and blouses. Since they change clothes each day, such clothes are easy to wash and iron.3. A: I just don’t get it. Every time I ask my students questions they remain silent.B: Don’t be frustrated. Here modesty is more important than speaking out. Students are afraid that they might appear arrogant if they are the first to answer a question.A: Equally puzzling to me is that here I haven’t come across any challenges in my class.B: Well, if students disagree with a professor it is regarded as a lack of respect.4. A: I was supposed to meet my supervisor but he wasn’t in the office. That’s odd.B: Let me see. Did you go there on time?A: No, but I was only five minutes late.B: There you go. Here punctuality seems to take priority over any other matter. I you arrive late, the appointment may be cancelled and the person may be unable to see you.5. A: It looks as if you are in a flurry. What are you preparing for?B: You know, people here have been so kind to me. So I invited these new friends to dinner here. But it really beats me what to make.A: I see. But you don’t have to go to a lot of expense. People will appreciate sampling a favorite ethnic dish that you have prepared and enjoy an evening of conversation.B: A favorite ethnic dish? What about spicy bean-curd?Listening Task1. Pre-listening Activity.Answers1. “Zeny” means woman in Czech.2. Chicken sandwich.3. Is the dish made of fish?4. Where is the train station?2. Listening Activity1) First ListeningAnswers1. The speaker cannot decide which toilet is women’s.2. A lot of physical communication is inv olved during the speaker’s travel.2) Second ListeningAnswers1. Before leaving home the speaker thought a joy of traveling would be encountering people who speak a different language.2. The speaker has found that her inability to speak another language is frustrating.3. In order to buy a chicken sandwich, the speaker imitated a chicken.4. When the speaker made the sound of “choo-choo”, she was asking where the train station was.5. The speaker achieved understanding when she was buying a chicken sandwich.ScriptTravel becomes a game of chanceAm I a zeny or a muzi? This is the kind of questions that plague me these days---days in which a trip to the ladies’ room has a good chance of leaving me standing before two doors, utterly baffled as to which one I’m expected to walk through.My husband, Richie and I are in the midst of a trip around the world. The journey has taken us to 14 countries thus far, and in only one did we speaker the language, that was England. We left home in December believing wholeheartedly that one of the great joys of traveling would be encountering people who speak in exotic dialects. I have to admit, however, the constant language barrier has been, at times, acutely frustrating.Trying to determine which toilet is the women’s versus the men’s in each new country has been just the tip of a much larger and more befuddling iceberg. On a typical day, I understand the people around me as much as the average mutt understands his owner. If I’m lucky, I compensate for my ignorance by smiling and wagging my tail a lat.With time, however, Richie and I have come to enjoy the ongoing challenge our lack of linguistic endowments provides. It helps that we now think of our lives as a 24-hour game of charades. In this version of the g ame, there’s only one required skill: an absolute willingness to make a complete ass of ourselves in front of total strangers.For instance, in trying to explain to a street vendor in Prague that I wanted a chicken sandwich. I was, at long last, able to achieve understanding but only I shoved my armpits, flapped my elbows wildly and declared loudly and for everyone to hear: “bawk bawk bawk!”On the downside, this method of physical communication leads to comprehension only about 50 percent of the time. In Hungary, while trying to determine if a dish was made of fish, I looked the waiter square in the eye, sucked in my checks and flapped my pursed lips at him. He stared at me then with a mix of incomprehension and search of a train station, I approached a large Czech security guard and queried, “choo-choo, choo-choo”I can’t blame him for his blank incredulity. When has a train ever made anything approaching the sound “choo-choo”?Real World Listening1. PredictAnswerNora, the interviewee, was a Jewish American.

She is a novelist, director and (1)performance artist and has lived in Berlin for 30 years. Her just-published novel, Prince William and Me, has received (2)out standing reviews in Germany. Nora, where did you live before you went to Berlin?Nora: I grew up in Queens.

How did you come up with the ideas for your novel?Nora: As an artist, you have to find your voice, and it has to separate you from everyone else. I immediately(5)got into Jewish themes and I probably would not have at home.

It explores Jewish life in Berlin today as(6)both real and relaxed, replete with tedious Hebrew classes and daunting bar mitzvahs. It also explores the tensions that emerge(7)when cultures clash, like when the mother accuses the father of being typically German.Nora: Being typical is something we expatriates(8)try desperately to avoid. When I went there to live, I tried not to talk too loudly, or in English, or talk about the Nazis all the time---and other things Americans are known to do. I really wanted to fit in.

It is a day set aside for the purpose of honoring mothers. On that day mothers are usually given flowers and cards to celebrate the occasion. Children usually write “To the best mother in the world”, “Thinking of you on Mother’s Day”, or “Thanks, Mom!” and so on on the cards. It is a common practice for sons and daughters to wear a pink carnation if their mothers are still living and white if they are dead. Where does the idea for the holiday come from? We should give credit to Miss Anna Jarvis, a native of West Virginia. Her mother died in Philadelphia on May 9, 1905. And on the first anniversary of her mother’s death she invited some friends to an informal memorial meeting. Again in 1907 a church service was held on her mother’s death anniversary. Because of her efforts, Philadelphia observed the first Mother’s Day on May 10, 1908. After that she began to write countless letters to very important persons and went to see many public men in order to plead for the observance of the day. Thanks to her painstaking efforts, the state of Pennsylvania made it a state holiday in May, 1913, and in the same year the United States Congress recommended that the second Sunday in May be made a national holiday honoring motherhood. The holiday was officially proclaimed by President Wilson, and the American people have observed Mother’s Day ever since.1．What day is Mother’s Day?A．The second Saturday in May.B．The second Sunday in May.C．The first Sunday in May.D．The first Saturday in May.正确答案：B解析：该题为细节题。

But the amazing thing was here we were, all these different people, with all these we were, all these different people, with all these different accents, and we could communicate.A: Wow, that‘s cool.4.A: I can‘t believe it! Our English teacher is Chinese.B: Yeah, well, so are you! What‘s wrong with that?A: But he‘s not a n ative speaker.

It‘s like a zoo around here.C My husband can‘t get around by himself anymore. His weight is causing him trouble with his legs. My son and daughter-in-law had to move back home to help out. We have no one else we can turn to.Listening Task1) First ListeningAnswersJeanne-[Fred][Lily]-Simon Gloria-[Lyle]…SharonKristy Shawna Marty [Eddie]2) Second ListeningAnswers1. [Fred] It‘s nice having Gloria here to help with Jeanne.2. [Lyle] Gloria and I have been together for 12 years. She is always trying to help out her family.3. [Lily] Gloria is so sweet to us. She‘s going to take care of Kristy and Shawna until we get settled in Florida.4. [Eddie] Gloria is my step-mom. I don‘t know how she can han dle taking care of all these people. It seems like everyone depends on her.Script1. Hi, I‘m Fred. About four years ago, Jeanne and I retired. We werelooking forward to taking care of our yard. But just when we got the yard looking really nice, Jeanne‘s legs started causing her trouble. At first, I tried to take care of her and the yard all by myself, but it was just too much. So we asked our daughter Gloria to come back home to live with us, together with her family. Now it‘s like a zoo around here, but it‘s nice having Gloria here to help with Jeanne.2. Hi, I‘m Lyle. Gloria and I have been together for 12 years now. we have a son who is 11 years old —his name is Marty. Eddie lives with us, too. He‘s my son from my first marriage, to Sharon. About two ye ars ago Gloria‘s parents asked us to come live at their house. Fred was having trouble talking care of Jeanne, and Gloria, She‘s always trying to help out her family, so she offered to help. Jeanne‘s always been over-weight, but finally, I guess, it got to the point where she couldn‘t get around by herself anymore. I don‘t mind helping out Gloria‘s mom, but sometimes I miss the privacy of our own home.3. Hi, I‘m Lily. I‘m married to Simon, Gloria‘s brother. We have 2-year-old twin daughters named Kristy and Shawna. Simon—that‘s my husband—is in the Air Force, and he just got transferred across the country, so we have to move again. He‘ll be working as soon as he gets to Florida, so I have to go and find us an apartment, and find myself a job, too. There‘s n o way I can do that and watch Kristy and Shawna at the same time .So Simon askedGloria to take care of them until I can get us settled. I hate to do that, but we have no one else to turn to. Gloria‘s so sweet to us, and she said, ―Sure, it‘s no problem.‖4. Hi, I‘m Eddie. Lyle is my dad. He used to be married to my Mom, Sharon, but they got divorced when I was little. I‘ve been living with my dad ever since. When he and Gloria got married, I felt okay about it. Gloria is my step-mom, and I like her a lot. Then they had Marty, my stepbrother. Marty is a cool kid. But now we have to live with Gloria‘s parents, and pretty soon, her two nieces are coming, too. I don‘t know how Gloria can handle taking care of all these people. It seems like everyone depends on her. So I try to help out as much as I can.Real world Listening1.

Marty: Yeah, so he and Lily got to go there first and do a whole bunch of stuff. That means that we get stuck with the twin brats.Eddie: Ah, come on, Marty. They aren‘t brats.Marty: Yeah, but you know what it‘s going to mean? Mom and Dad aren‘t going to have any time for us anymore. And it‘s going to get even more crowded here. Just one big happy family!Eddie: Yeah, there‘s a lot of us now, that‘s for sure. I hear we‘re going to have to sleep in the living room so that Kristy and Shawna can have our room.Marty: I wish we were back in our old house—just us, Mom and Dad.Eddie: Yeah, sometimes I do, too.Marty: And I wish Mom and Dad wouldn‘t try to solve everybody‘s pr oblems.

I‘m not really mad at her. I‘m mad at Mon and Dad. They used to always have time to help me with my homework, or play games with me, but they‘re always too busy. And now it‘s going to get even worse.

I ca n‘t get over howfriendly and helpful people are. I would like to live out my life here.B I‘ve gotten used to it here. I used to try to figure out why they do things a certain way.C Sometimes foreigners are too inflexible. They shouldn‘t try to convert u s to their way of doing things.

She feels very safe. She can leave her backpack unattended.2. People talk about their cars a lot.3. People compliment him when he speaks the language. People can‘t believe that he can use chopsticks.4. People go out of their way to help you.Script1. One of the things I really like about living in Costa Rica is that it‘s so safe. I mean, I can go walk around the streets with 50,000 pesetas in my wallet and I don‘t even worry about it. In American cities, I used to worry about waling around with 20 dollars in my wallet. And another thing is that sometimes I go into a restaurant and I can leave my backpack sitting at a table and I go up to order and I come back knowing that my backpack is going to be safe and no one‘s even touched it .2. People in the States are so connected to their cars. They are so concerned whether their cars look good, and they talk about their cars a lot. I think that cars isolate people. Public transportation brings people together…and it‘s better for the environment. Americans live in their cars. This is one th ing about living here that I just can‘t get used to.3. People in Tokyo overreact when I can use chopsticks or speak the language. I‘ve been living here for three years—of course I can eat with chopsticks and say some things in their language. They act as if I were some kind of genius who had broken a secret code, or as if I had just done them a really big favor. I don‘t congratulate them when they speak English to me. I don't get what the big is.4. I‘ll never get over how helpful people are in Tel Aviv. The other day I was shopping for a certain book, right? The bookstore I usually go to didn‘thave it, so the clerk called a couple of his competitors until he found a store to hold a copy for me. After that, he photo-copied a map and highlighted where the store was, and marked the easiest route for me to get there. They would never do that in the U.S.Real World Listening1.PredictAnswersStore clerks, social rules2.
