(2 minutes)2.T explains the key language points in Part I and gives Ss practice (see Language Study). (10minutes)1.1) Ss form groups to discuss the following questions:—Among so many participants of the Underground Railroad, why were John Parker, Levi Coffin and Henson chosen as their representatives Who do they each represent—We learn about Henson in Part I, then why is his story delayed until the last part—Why does the author sometimes quote directly from characters in the stories？—(The answers to these questions are discussed below in Text Analysis.)'2) Some Ss group report discussion results to class (see Text Analysis). (20 minutes)2.T guides Ss through some after-text exercises. (20 minutes)3.T checks on Ss’ home reading (Text B).

(1 period)5.T asks Ss to prepare the next unit: (2 minutes)1)—2)do the pre-reading task;3)preview Text A.Ⅱ.Text AnalysisWhen we learn a foreign language, we must also learn the culture of the speakers of that langu-age. T ext 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 from Biblical stories, such as Moses who led the Jewish people out of slavery in Egypt, or Bethlehem, a holy city for Christians.'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 occasions, 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.!Ⅲ. 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 particular 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 recognize the other person’s right to make it.A mericans sometimes call the US the “land of the free”, a phrase taken from its national anthem.British people have always strongly defended their freedom. Fear that they will lose the freedom to decide their own future is behind many people’s lack of enth usiasm 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 ( = refusals 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 1964 and the Voting 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 Americans.]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 the civil rights movement and was strongly supported by President Lyndon Johnson. It was followed the next year by the Voting 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 T om who is badly treated and finally killed by Simon Legr ee. T om’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 an 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 thousandsof slaves 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. 6. 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, there 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 War.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.7. 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 peaceinclude 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 Monica Lewinsky, a junior member of the White House staff, after denying it earlier. He was impeached for lying under oath and obstructing justice, but the Senate judged him not guilty.8.Quaker: any member of the Society of Friends, a religious group established in England in 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.9.Grand Central Terminal: the best-known railway station in the US. It is on East 42nd Street in New York andwas 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 ca n’t move in there—it’s like Grand Central Station!10.~11.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.12.t he 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.Ⅳ.

全新版大学英语综合教程第三册教案Unit7Unit 7 Making a livingⅠ. Suggested Teaching PlanObjectivesStudents will be able to:understand the main idea (Bill Porter the salesman will never give in) and structure of the text (4 parts, 2 flashbacks);appreciate the characteristics of journalistic writing;grasp the key language points and grammatical structures in the text;conduct a series of reading, listening, speaking, and writing activities related to the theme of the unit.Time Allotment1st period2nd period3rd period4th period5th periodPre-reading; While-reading (structure)While-reading (Parts I-II; Parts III-IV)While-reading; Post-reading (discussion)Post-reading; Check on Ss’ home reading (Text B)Theme-Related Language Learning T asksPre-reading Activities1. T asks Ss the following questions on the song: (5 minutes)Why does Onetta think it worthwhile to work hard day after day? (People need her; some people care for her; she keeps her integrity by working hard.)Would you rather have a low paid job that is interesting or awell-paid job that is boring?2. Role play: Classroom salesman (25 minutes)T lets Ss read the title of Text A, then announces that the class is to do a role-play. One student will act as a salesperson. All other students will act as his / her potential customers.T appoints a student with a relatively advanced level of English to act as the salesperson. He / She will leave the classroom, think of a product to sell, and plan his / her sales talk. The product should be relevant to campus life.After the salesperson leaves the classroom, T selects several Ss at random. Only they can buy from the salesperson. All other Ss must come up with an excuse not to buy.T invites the salesperson back into the classroom. He / she has 10 minutes to close a deal.Ss discuss with their neighbors the qualities of a good salesperson.3. T leads in to the text by saying: From the role-play we know the sale of goods is rather a difficult job. It is even more difficult for a handicapped person, like Bill Porter in Text A. (1 minutes) While-reading activities1. Text structure (9 minutes)1) Ss scan the text to see if there is any natural division of parts in the text. (Asterisks divide the text into 4 parts.) Ss read the first paragraph of each part, locate the time words or references to time. (They are: 5:45, 7:45, “This is the moment he’s been preparing for since 5:45 a.m.”, after 7 p.m.) By then Ss will realize that the text is about a typical day of salesman Bill Porter.T explains language points in Parts I - II and gives Ss practice (see Language Study). (25 minutes) Ss re-read Parts I - II to finda flashback. Then, by reading the sentences preceding and following the flashback, they will see how skillfully it is woven into the narration. (10 minutes)T explains language points in Parts Ⅲ-Ⅳand gives Ss practice (see Language Study). (35 minutes)Ss re-read Parts III — IV to find another flashback. Then, by reading the sentences preceding and following the flashback, they will see how skillfully it is woven into the narration. (10 minutes)Post-reading Activities1. Group discussion (25 minutes)1) Ss form groups to discuss the following questions:What has Bill Porter been struggling for all his life? Do you think it is worth his efforts?How do you feel about Bill Porter? Why?What characteristics of journalistic writing do you find in this article?Some groups report to class.T explains in more detail the characteristics of journalistic writing (see Text Analysis).T guides Ss through some after-text exercises. (30 minutes) T checks on Ss’ home reading (Text B). (3 minutes)Ss do Part IV: Theme-Related Language Learning Tasks. (1 period)T asks Ss to prepare for the next unit: (2 minutes)do the pre-reading task;preview Text A.Ⅱ.Text AnalysisThis article first appeared in a newspaper; therefore it carries many characteristics of journalistic writing.First of all, a journalist tries to be objective in reporting. As a result, third-person narrative is usually preferred over first-person narrative. Moreover, the journalist would not make any comments to reveal his / her feelings, but simply give the facts.Secondly, an eye-catching beginning helps lure readers to linger more on the story out of an overwhelming number of stories offered by the day’s newspaper. For example, at the beginning of this story, we learn that it takes our physically deformed hero great efforts to get up so as to do something important, yet what is this something? We are kept in suspense until the fourth paragraph.Thirdly, the vocabulary is simple, the sentences and paragraphs short, sometimes elliptical (see after-text exercise on ellipsis). When needs (for emphasis, to list a series of rapidly conducted activities, etc.) arise, a paragraph is as short as one sentence.Lastly, conversations can be transcribed word for word if they illustrate the theme, like the one in the text between Bill Porter and his indecisive female customer.Ⅲ. Cultural Notes1. 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 adrawback 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.The traveling salesman appeared late in the 19th century both in Europe and in the U.S. The early itinerant peddler carried his goods on his back or on his horse, working his way from a port city through the hinterlands. With the coming of the railroad and the assurance given to sellers by new credit-reporting systems, salesmen with their sample cases moved across the land. Persuasive skill was less important in those days of unsatisfied demand, and orders were readily forthcoming. By 1900, however, with the increasing supply of manufactured goods, buyers became more discriminating in their purchases. Greater attention was given to training the sales force and to providing buyer incentives. The growth of industrialization and urban living led to the development of merchandising as a major business endeavor. The use of sales promotion practices experienced steady growth in the 20th century.The techniques of sales promotion are used both to motivate salespersons to improve their performance and to induce consumers to purchase goods and services. Although sales promotion works most closely with advertising, it is also related to other elements of marketing: production services, packaging, price, and distribution. At the manufacturing and wholesale levels of distri-bution, the methods used to motivate personnel to meet specific goals usually fall into two categories —salesincentive prizes (such as merchandise, travel, or cash awards) and sales contests. Both are based upon the salesperson reaching an objective above the normal salesquota.Consumer promotions encompass a wide variety of techniques, including sampling of goods or services, store redeemable “money-off’ coupons to encourage the trial of products, special price-reduced packages, mail-in premium merchandise offers, cash or coupon refunds by mail, special product packaging, contests, and sweepstakes. During recessionary periods, when the demand for consumer expendable dollars becomes more competitive, there is greater participa-tion in refund, coupon, and premium offers. More than half the households in the U.S. take advantage of some sales promotion offers each year.Sales promotion, now fully recognized as a vital element in the marketing mix, has become a multibillion dollar industry. In recent years, sales promotion expenditures have exceeded monies spent on advertising and there are strong indications that this pattern of growth will continue to maintain its economic edge.Ⅳ.

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.

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.
