Listening InTask 1: Competition in AmericaScriptAlan: What are you reading, Eliza?Eliza: An article on American competition.Alan: Competition is everywhere and constant. Why so much fuss about it, Miss Knowledge? Eliza:Don’t make fun of me. According to the author, competition is especially important in American life. They’re taught to compete from early childhood. When children play games, they learn how to beat others.Alan: And many girls want to look more attractive than the girls sitting next to them in class. Do you think that way?Eliza:Don’t be silly. Let’s get back to the point. When children are growing up, they compete with one another in their studies.Alan: Isn’t that also true of students in other nations? As we all know, many Asian students kill for a high test score and grab every opportunity to sharpen their competitive edge over others.Eliza:American boys find great pleasure in competing with each other in sports, according to the author.Alan: I do like sports. When our football team beats the other team, I feel great. Makes me want to shout out loud. But isn’t that normal t hroughout the world?Eliza: American people also compete with each other at work and at climbing the social ladder.Alan: But there’s competition in other countries as well.Eliza: You’re right in a sense, but the author says the idea of competing is more deeply rooted in the minds of Americans. They’re even taught that if you lose and don’t feel hurt, there must be something wrong with you.Alan: I hear that some Asians put emphasis on cooperation. Which approach do you think makes more sense?Eliza: It’s hard to say. Anyway, there’s no accounting for different cultures.1.What is the dialog mainly about?2.What is the woman doing?3.What do children learn from playing games according to the woman?4.What does the man say about students’ studies?5.What does the woman say when asked which makes more sense, competition or cooperation? Keys: 1.C 2.A 3.C 4.B 5.DTask 2: Americans’ Work EthicScriptFor four hundred years or more, one thing has been a characteristic of Americans. It is called their “work ethic”. Its (S1) roots were in the teaching of the Christian Puritans who first settled in (S2) what is now the northeastern state of Massachusetts. They believed that it was their (S3)moral duty to work at every task to please God by their (S4) diligence, honesty, attention to details, skill, and attitude. To these Puritans, it was a (S5) sin to be lazy or to do less than your best in any task. They and later Americans tried to follow the Bible’s (S6) teachings, “If a man will not work, he shall not eat.”Therefore, Americans have for (S7) centuries believed that they were guilty of sin if they did not work as carefully and hard as they could when they did anything. God would punish those who were careless or lazy in their work. (S8) Even as children they were taught,“If it’s worth doing at all, it’s worth doing well.”But some people have gone beyond the usual sense of diligence. They are especially attracted to the notion of “climbing the ladder” so as to increase their status, financial position, and sense of self-worth. (S9) In English a new word has been created to describe people who work compulsivelly. The word “workaholic” describes an individual who is as addicted to work as an alcoholic is to alcohol.There are conflicting points of view about workaholics. Those concerned with problems of mental stress believe workaholics abuse themselves physically and mentally. (S10) Others hold that workaholics are valuable members of society because they are extremely productive. The American culture values achievement, efficiency, and production, and a workaholic upholds these values.Task 3: Cross-cultural tips on doing businessScriptCountries from around the globe, such as Germany, the U.S., the U.K., and Russia, conduct a lot of business in China-the biggest market in the world. Here are some tips to help you deal more successfully with people from those nations.Firstly, you must be punctual with the Germans. Being even five minutes late makes a poor impression. Being punctual is also very important with the Americans and the British. But while it's important to be on time for business meetings, nobody expects you to be punctual for a social event. Half past seven really means a quarter to eight, or even eight o'clock! With Russians, always be on time, but don't be surprised if your Russian contract is very late! It is not unusual for them to be one or even two hours late!In the business environments of those four countries, it is best to wear formal clothes of dark colors. In Russia, designer clothes are rather common. However, don't be surprised if you go to an office in the U.K. on a Friday and find everyone wearing jeans. Many companies in the U.K. have "dress down Fridays", when people wear casual attire.In conversation, the British and the Americans love humor and talking about sports. The weather is also a good topic of conversation with the British, but you should avoid political talk. With the Russians, say positive things about their country, and avoid making complaints. The Germans, however, prefer to get straight down to business!Remember that with the Germans, once a deal has been agreed upon, you can't change it! With the Americans money is more important than relationships, whereas with the Russians it's important to get to know your contacts well. Also, don't be surprised if a British meeting seems like chaos, with everyone participating and giving opinions!Remember these tips and you will be on your way to a successful international business career!Key1 What is true of the Americans and the British in terms of punctuality?D) They are punctual for business meetings, but less so for social events.2. In which country do people have “dress down Fridays"?A) The U.K.3. What can you infer about the Russians from their conversation?D) They are patriotic.4. How can you do business well with the Russians?A) You should know your contacts well.5. What is the speaker's attitude toward the four nationalities?C) He is neutral to all of them.IV. Speaking OutMODEL 1 Americans glorify individualism.Susan: John, I was looking for you. Where have you been hiding all morning?John: Well, I caught Professor Brown’s lecture on American individualism.Susan: Oh, how did you find it?John: Enlightening. Americans glorify individualism. They believe individual interests rank above everything else.Susan: Sounds interesting. It’s a sharp contrast to the oriental collectivism Professor Wang talked about last semester.John: But you should know that the individualism in the United States is not necessarily an equivalent for selfishness.Susan: Then what does it mean in the States?John: They believe all values, rights, and duties originate in individuals, so they emphasize individual initiative and independence.Susan: There could be something in that. Of course in oriental countries the interests of the group are more important than anything else.John: So, it’s all the more necessary for foreigners to understand American culture, or they can’t hope to understand the importance of pri vacy in the West.. Susan:Maybe that’s the reason nuclear families outnumber extended families in the United States.John: Right on! You’re catching on fast!Susan: Now let me ask you a question.John: Shoot. Go ahead.Susan: Why do Americans cherish individualism more than oriental people?John: I don’t know. Anyway, Professor Brown didn’t say.Susan: One reason might be that American children stop sleeping with their parents at an early age. They learn independence early, so it’s deeply rooted.John: Wow, that’s an intelligent guess!MODEL2What do you think are the reasons for that difference? ScriptSusan: Do you find that people in America often walk faster than people in China?Americans always seem to be in a hurry.John: It’s hard t o come to a definite conclusion. Some Americans walk in a leisurely way, and some Chinese hurry all the time. But on the whole, I think you’re right. Susan:What do you think are the reasons for that difference?John: Americans treasure time. For them, time is tangible. It’s a thing. “Time is money.” You can “spend time”, “waste time”, “save time”. You can even “kill time”!Susan:Does this strong sense of time affect their lifestyle?John:Sure. If you’re 20 minutes late for a business appointment, the other person or persons will be annoyed. They may not trust you anymore.Susan: But as far as I know, English-speaking people may be 15-30 minutes late for a dinner party.John: That’s true. For an informal occasion like that, punctuality is not so i mportant.Also, a boss may keep his employees waiting for a long time.Susan:But if his secretary is late, she’s in trouble. She will probably receive a reprimand.John: How true!Susan: The American workship of time probably led them to create fast foods.John: I agree. And globalization shrinks the differences between cultures. Now people everywhere are rushing, and anywhere you go, you find Kentucky Fried Chicken. Susan: But plenty of Chinese are still making appointments saying, “If I am late, w ait for me.”John: But with more intercultural communication, I think the gap will eventually be bridged, and Chinese will be hurrying everywhere.MODEL3That’s the secret of their success.ScriptChris: Hey Sue, how’s the math class going? Are you h ead of the class?Susan:Are you kidding? There’s a bunch of foreign students in the class---from China somewhere---and they are on top.Chris: Why do you think so many Chinese students excel in math? It’s been my observation that the Chinese students are usually the best.Susan:In class they don’t say much, but they definitely get the best marks.Chris: I think part of it is their work ethic. They never skip class, and they pay attention.Susan:One Chinese student in my class did homework each night until the early hours.He never took a break, watched TV, or went out for a beer.Chris:That’s the secret of their success: hard work and diligence.Susan:It’s so unfair. I could probably do better if I worked harder, but that’s no fun. I think learning should be more fun.Chris:Someone with a knowledge of chess would find a chess tournament fascinating. But if you don’t have the knowledge, then you won’t understand the significance of the moves, and you’ll be bored.Susan:So what you’re saying is knowledge requires hard work, and knowledge makes things interesting.I am not against knowledge; I just want to learn it in an interesting way. What’s more, “Allwork and no play makes Jack a dull boy.”V. Let’s TalkScriptThe International Slavery Museum has opened at Albert Dock, in Liverpool. Many people traveled from all over the world to celebrate the opening on 23rd of August.The museum is a place of reflection, contemplation and education.It tells the story of the cruel acts of the transatlantic slave trade, the stories of the lives of the millions of African people, who were forced from their homelands onto ships that sailed to unknown lands where they were made to work on farms and in mines in harsh conditions without dignity or payment.Liverpool is one of the many British seaports that became very rich from money made transporting goods such as cotton and sugar, produced by African slaves.One of the most important parts of the museum's exhibits are the stories of the lives of people who live all over the world today, whose family history can be traced to the Africans whose lives were changed forever by the transatlantic slave trade.It has taken four years of hard work and planning to organise the creation of the museum, and its opening year is a very significant date because in 2007 we commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act.This was a law made in 1807; it banned all British people from taking part in the slave trade. Later in 1833 all people who had been forced into slavery to work for British companies were freed.Keyl. It tells the story of the cruel acts of the (l)transatlantic slave trade, the stories of the lives of the millions of African people, who were forced from their homelands onto ships that sailed to (2)unknown lands where they were made to work on farms and in mines in harsh conditions without (3)dignity or payment.2. Liverpool is one of the many British seaports that became very (l)rich from money made transporting goods such as (2)cotton and sugar, produced by African slaves.3. One of the most important parts of the museum's exhibits are the stories of the lives of people who live (l)all over the world today, whose (2)family history can be traced to the Africans whose lives were (3) changed forever by the transatlantic slave trade.4. Because 2007 marks the 200th anniversary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act.5. A law was made in 1807; it (l)banned all British people from (2)taking part in the slave trade. In 1833 all people who had been forced into (3)slavery to work for British companies were (4)freed.VI.Further Listening and SpeakingTask 1: PunctualityT o Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other people’s time. Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology, and maybe an explanation. People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay.Of course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on tome. At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time. But they usually don’t try that at work.American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others. When people plan an event, they often set the time days or weeks in advance. Once the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to chance it. If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient. Only very close friends will just “drop in” unannoun ced. Also, people hesitate to call others late at night for fear they might be in bed. The time may vary, but most folks think twice about calling after 10:00 p.m.To outsiders, Americans seem tied to the clock. People in some Eastern cultures value relati onships more than schedules. In these societies, people don’t try to control time, but to experience it. Many Eastern cultures, for example, view time as a cycle. The rhythm of nature---from the passing of seasons to the monthly cycle of the moon---shapes their view of events. If they have wasted some time or let an opportunity pass by, they are not very worried, knowing that more time and opportunities will come in the next cycle. But Americans often want to jump at the first opportunity. They are unwilling to stand by idly and give up the opportunity.The early American hero Benjamin Franklin expressed that view of time like this: “Do you love life? Then do now waste time, for that is the stuff life is made of.”1.According to the passage, when people are late in America, what do they do?2.According to the passage, what do Americans do after the time for an appointment isfixed?3.How do people in some Eastern countries view relationships and schedules?4.According to the passage, why aren’t some Eastern people w orried if they let anopportunity pass by?5. What was Benjamin Franklin’s view of time?Keys: 1.C 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.DTask 2: Our Personal SpacesScriptOur personal space, that piece of the universe we occupy and call our own, is contained within an invisible boundary surrounding our body. As the owners of this area, we usually decide who may enter and who may not. When our space is invaded, we react in a variety of ways. We back up and retreat, stand our ground as our hands become moist from nervousness, or sometimes even react violently. Our response shows not only our unique personality, but also our cultural background.For example, cultures that stress individualism such as England, the United States, Germany, and Australia generally demand more space than collective cultures do, and tend to become aggressive when their space is invaded. This idea of space is quite different from the one found in the Mexican and Arab cultures. In Mexico, the physical distance between people when engaged in conversation is closer than what is usual north of the border. And for middle easterner, typical Arab conversations are at close range. Closeness cannot be avoided.As is the case with most of our behavior, our use of space is directly linked to the value system of our culture. In some Asian cultures, for example, employees do not stand near their bosses; the extended distance demonstrates respect. Extra interpersonal distance is also part of the cultural experience of the people of Scotland and Sweden, for whom it reflects privacy. And in Germany, private space is sacred.Keys: 1.T 2.F 3.T 4.F 5.FTask 3: We don’t know what to do with them.ScriptA Russian, a Cuban, an American businessman, and an American lawyer were passengers on a fast train speeding across the French countryside. As time wore on, the men gradually became friendly with one another, introducing themselves and shaking hands. Eventually, the Russian took out a large bottle of vodka and poured each of his traveling companions a drink. Just as the American businessman was sipping the vodka and praising its fine quality, the Russian hurled the half-full bottle out of the open window.“What did you do that for?” asked the startled American businessman.“Vodka is plentiful in my country,” said the Russian, “In fact, we have thousands and thousands of liters of it---far more than we need.”The American businessman shook his head and leaned back in his seat, obviously baffled by the Russian’s reasoning.A little later, the young Cuban passed around a box of fine Havana cigars. The men enjoyed this treat and made admiring remarks about the pleasures of smoking good Havana cigars. At that very moment the Cuban took a couple of puffs of his cigar and then tossed it out of the open window.“I thought the Cuban economy was not good this year,” the American businessman said. “Yet you threw that perfectly good cigar away. I find your actions quite puzzling.”“Cigars,” the Cuban replied, “are a dime a dozen in Cuba. We have more of them than we know what t o do with.”The American businessman sat in silence for a moment. Then he got up, grbbed the lawyer, and threw him out of the window.Key:1.The Russian hurled the half-full bottle of vodka out of the open window.2.He answered, "Vodka is plentiful in my country. In fact, we have thousands and thousandsof liters of it-far more than we need."3.The businessman said, "I thought the Cuban economy was not good this year. Yet you threwthat perfectly good cigar away. I find your actions quite puzzling."4.He replied, "Cigars are a dime a dozen in Cuba. We have more of them than we know whatto do with."5.The American businessman sat in silence for a moment. Then he got up, grabbed the lawyer,and threw him out of the window. He did that probably because he thought there were too many lawyers in the United States.希望对大家有所帮助，多谢您的浏览！Viewing and SpeakingKey1)disappearing 2) kicking 3) tea shop 4) image crisis 5) update 6)compete 7)fast 8)product designers 9) contacts 10)similar 11)want 12)challenge 13) consumer 14) traditional（注：可编辑下载，若有不当之处，请指正，谢谢!）授课：XXX。

Here are some tips to help you pack your bags.1.Pre-trip planning. Make a packing list to help you remember everything. Reveal it about aweek before your trip. Plan a time to go shopping for things you need for your trip. Don’t pack the night before you travel. You’ll forget things when you’re in a hurry.2.Tagging luggage. Before packing, put names tags on valuable items like cameras and cellphones.Make sure that each piece of luggage, including carry-on has a luggage tag on it. If you know your hotel’s address and phone numbers, put it on your luggage tags.3.Saving space. Pack small items: socks, belts and etc inside your shoes. It uses the emptyspace and helps the shoes to hold their shape. Pack your clothes in plastic bags. If you’re traveling with a friend, plan your packing together, share your alarm clock, toothpaste or first aid kit.4.Your carry-on bag. The most important items for your trip: passport, plane tickets, traveler’s checks, credit cards keys and etc should go in your carry-on bag. Always keep them with you. Keep your carry-on bag small and light. Put those the heavy items in your checking luggage.Use soft bags such as backpacks or shoulder bags for carry-ons. They fit easily under the airplane seat or into the small overhead compartment.5.Other ideas. Bring an empty bag for souvenirs from the trip. Remember to pack a few rub ofbans, safety pins and plastic bags, they can be very useful. Bring some snacks such as nuts, cookies or dried fruit, you can eat them if you don’t have enough time for a meal. Sharing food is a good way to made other travelers.Track 3-1-OL-7 Track 3-1-OL-8Travel TodayGoing solo is the way to go!By D. ToorHow do you usually travel? Do you go with a close friend or a group of friends? Do you join a tour group? Do you travel with your family? Have you ever imagined "going solo"? In the mid 1990s, it was estimated that 9 million Americans were planning a summer vacation alone. Since then, the number of solo travelers has increased.You may think that traveling alone would be scary or boring. Well, according to people who do it, that's not exactly true. Solo travelers often have positive experiences: they make new friends, get to know themselves better, and can make their own schedules.There are many different things you can do on a vacation alone. Some solo travelers use the time to learn or practice a sport such as golf, mountain climbing, or scuba diving. Others go and stayon a ranch and learn how to ride a horse. You can pretend to be a cowboy or a cowgirl for a day! You may not believe this, but some travelers like to study on their vacation. They even go to "vacation college" at a university or join a research team as a volunteer worker. It's hard but satisfying work. You can "play scientist" for a week or two while you help someone with their project.For solo travelers of different ages and genders, there are many travel options, There are tours for women only and for people over the age of 60. And, of course, there are trips for singles who are looking for romance. One company offers trips that focus on fine dining----there is time for sightseeing during the day and for sharing a delicious meal with new friends at night. The next time you take a trip somewhere, why don't you consider going solo?Bon voyage!Global ViewpointsP13 ADave: Before going on a trip I pay the bills, I empty the trash, and I give a house key to a friend. Alejandra: Before I leave on a trip, I have to confirm travel plans and make sure that I have requested a vegetarian meal.Thallus: Before leaving for a long trip, I turn off the lights, I turn off my heater, I give my keys to my roommate, and I water my plant.Julianna: The funniest story of m}'r traveling experience was w hen I came to the U.S. for the first time by myself. They lost my luggage and I didn't speak a word of English. I had to use my hands to explain myself. People understood what I meant and they helped me out. Catherine: My recent trip to Africa was one of the most amazing trips of my life, This was my second trip to Tanzania, Africa. We visited a lot of villages, some very remote that we had to travel by helicopter. In Tanzania, it's very different from America so there are no maps. So, even traveling in a helicopter, we didn't really know where we were going to go. We didn't really know the village names, so we just kind of had no destination and we got in the helicopter and just flew around. And if we saw some animals or some rooftops of hut houses, we said, "Let's go there" and we just kind of landed.Dennis: I have a lot of funny experiences on the airline as a flight attendant. But one of the funniest I could recall was, there was this passenger who had a toupee and one of my flight attendants was serving---l think---she was serving food---and she had this tray. And suddenly turbulence happened, and she lost her balance---and her hand landed on the guy's head, who had atoupee.

While Sun-hee is talking to Mike on the phone, Claudia and Tara have some trouble preparing for the trip. First, Tara can’t find her bag and then Claudia doesn’t know where her ticket is. But Sun-hee is tatally relaxed because she has already finished getting ready. Sun-hee tells Mike about all the errands she had to do earlier that day. She had to confirm her flight, get travel’s checks, change her voice-mail message, and pay the bills. Finally, Tara and Claudia are ready to go and Sun-hee checks to be sure they have everything. However, after they leave, Sun-hee soon comes running back in. Why? She forgot to take her ticket and passport!Unit 4, Lesson ATrack 3-4-1 Track 3-4-2(F): Well, Jim, our next story is a strange one, isn't it?(M): Yes, Irene, it sure is. It surprised everyone. Almost 200 people on a two-week holiday trip to Saint Martin became sick. They're calling it the "holiday cruise disease." It sounds scary. What caused it? The doctors aren't exactly sure, but they know it was something in the food thepassengers ate. OK, give us the details. All right, here's the story: On Friday night, the ship departed around 10 p.m. with 300 passengers on board. By Sunday morning, some people reported feeling lightheaded. They stayed in bed. By that afternoon, more than half of the passengers had severe indigestion. Some of them got very sick. We spoke to one woman about her experience. Everyone was complaining. My stomach hurt so much I couldn't eat anything. It was really terrible! What's the situation now? Well, the ship had to return home on Monday---- after only two and a half days at sea---- and most of the passengers went straight to the hospital then.F: How are they doing now?M: They're exhausted---- many haven't slept for 48 hours---- but they're doing fine.F: That's good news. It's too bad they couldn't enjoy their vacation.M: Yes, it is. And that’s the next problem. The passengers are asking for their money back, but the company doesn't want to refund the full amount.F: What's going to happen then?M: Nobody knows. I'II keep following the story, though, and I'II have more details for you tomorrow. Track 3-4-3Chad: Hi, Doctor Park.Doctor: Hi, Chad. How are you today?Chad: Not so great.Doctor: What seems to be the problem?Chad: Well, I have a rash on my arm. I can't stop scratching it.Doctor: Is there anything else?Chad: Yes. I have a slight fever.Doctor: I see. Have you been in the woods recently?Chad: Let's see…I went hiking last week.Doctor: Maybe an insect bit you. Please sit up here. Let's take your temperature.Track 3-4-41. When I was younger and I had a sore throat my mother would always make me gargle with hot water and salt. Surprisingly, it works.2. I use aloe vera. I use it for burns and things on the skin. I think it really works. Track 3-4-OL-1 Track 3-4-OL-2M: Are you finished packing?B: Almost. I just have to check my tent one last time, I don’t want to forget any of the pieces. M: Is that your first aid kit?B: Yep.M: Well, I see bandages and some aspirin, where’s everything else?B: Like what?M: Well, your toothbrush and toothpaste for example.B: Huh… I’ll put it in, don’t worry.M: And where is your allergy medicine?

It’s only an overnight camping trip.M: OK. All right then. Oh, what about mouthwash? After you brush you teeth, you’re going to wantto…B: Mom! I’m not preparing for a date! I’m going on a camping trip, an overnight camping trip!I think I can live without mouthwash for 24 hours!M: All right then. I was just trying to be helpful. I’m sure you’ll have a great time. Track 3-4-OL-3A: What’s wrong?B: I feel exhausted. I didn’t sleep well last night.A: Do you have a cold?B: No, I’m fine. It’s Fred, he has the flu.A: I’m sorry to hear that.B: Yeah, it’s pretty bad. He can’t stop coughing. It keeps me awake at night.Track 3-4-OL-4I stopped drinking coffee because I couldn’t sleep at night. It was had to break that habit, but now I sleep very well, and I don’t wake up in the middle of the night. If you want to stop drinking coffee, here’s some advice for you. Don’t stop drinking coffee suddenly. You might get a headache. Reduce the amount of coffee slowly. Drink juice or herbal tea instead. If you usually have coffee in the morning, go for a walk or do exercises instead. That will wake you up. And go to bed early! A lot of people drink coffee just because the feel tired.Track 3-4-OL-5 Track 3-4-OL-6Get in the habitWe all know that good habits bring in good health. But we don’t realize how much difference they can make. In the 1970s, scientists at the University of California, LA interviews seven thousand people about their health habits. Then they follow these people to see how long they lived. The scientist discovered that seven habits were closely linked with a longer life. These habits are：1. Eating breakfast everyday. 2. Avoiding snacks between meals.3. Keeping an ideal weight, not too heavy or too thin.4. Exercising regularly. 5. Sleeping 7 to 8 hours per night, not more or less.6. Not smoking.7. Drink two or fewer alcoholic drinks per day. The researchers found that these habits had a powerful effect on health. People in the study who had three or fewer of these habits lived another 21.6 years. People who had six or seven could expect to live another 33 years. People age 55 to 64 with all seven good habits were as healthy as younger people age 25 to 34 who practiced only one or two of the habits. But how do you change your habits? A slow approach is the best way. Make one small change every week and be patient, it takes about 21 days to form a new habit.Track 3-4-OL-7 Track 3-4-OL-8Surprising syndromes of modem lifeR4argaret's friend is taking a new job in a faraway city. She wants to hold a farewell dinner party at her home. But she can't. Margaret suffers from CHAOS (Can't Have Anyone Over Syndrome). Her apartment is messy and she's embarrassed by it. "I've never been a tidy person," she says. "My best friend gave me some good advice. He told me to get a maid." Today it's so easy to get information--and lots of it. We receive telephone calls all day long. People expect a quick response to their faxes, text messages, and e-mail messages. I;or some people, it's too much. They have information fatigue syndrome. There is so much information, they become paralyzed and can't think clearly "I can't sleep at night because I worry," says Bahman, a college senior. "It's terrible." Hurry sickness is a straightforward name for another syndrome of modern life. "I'malways rushing. Get headaches a lot. Taking aspirin seems to help," says Mari, a mother of two and a part-time company employee. Do you engage in "deskfast" (eating breakfast at your desk at work) more than once a week? Then you, too, may suffer from hurry sickness! We've all complained about having too much work to do. Well, now about not having enough work?Underload syndrome is caused by having little or nothing to do at the office. You have to pretend that you're working. Steven works as a project manager. "I can finish my work in about four hours, but I'm afraid to say anything about it. I don't want to be assigned too much work!" In severe cases, people with this syndrome can get very bored and even became depressed. Chances are you're experienced phone neck before. Another name for it would be "pain in the neck," because that's what people with this condition experience. Holding the phone between your neck and your ear for a long time causes phone neck. A good long message is the suggested treatment for this syndrome. Unit 4, Lesson BGlobal ViewpointsP65 AAlejandra: Unfortunately, I get colds a couple of times a year. When I get a cold, I feel very weak and I've got headaches, my throat aches, and I just don't want to get out of bed. So I stay home. I take medicines and try to drink a lot of liquids.Gian: When I get sick----and I mean really sick---- the first thing I do is run to the machine cabinet and try to find something to make me feel better. And if I'm not feeling better after a little while, I’ll call the doctor and trudge in to make sure that I'm really OK, and it's just a matter of time.Malinda: When I xx-as younger and I had a sore throat, my mother would always make me gargle with hot water and salt. Surprisingly, it worked.Dave: I have an aunt in Mexico that believes that toothpaste can cure everything. Toothpaste can cure burns---bee stings---uh-- bites-- it's... amazing. "I got a bee sting---- ah, put toothpasteon it." "I got burnt---- ah, put toothpaste on it." "I have cancer---- ah, put toothpaste on it." Kumiko: I use aloe vera. I use it for burns and things on the skin. I think it really works. Catherine: My father's been recently very interested in acupuncture. He's been having a lot of headaches and backaches so he's been studying up on acupuncture and he realized that if he puts a needle right here for his headache and a needle right here for his back it eases his pain. I think it works for him. For me I'm a little skeptical but I think if you really believe in it, it works.City LivingIt must be a miracle!Tara: (opening the door to find Takeshi and Mike) Hi--hi.Takeshi: Hi.Tara: Thank goodness you're here! This morning she almost fainted, then she felt very tired, and now she says she feels very lightheaded. I don't know hat to do.Takeshi: Has she seen a doctor?Tara: She won't go. She says just needs to get some rest.Mike: Did anything happen?Tara: Nothing out of the ordinary. The worst thing is, she has this big meeting with the president of the university tonight.

Oh--why do I have that meeting with the president tonight? I can't stop thinking about it...Mike: Eat something, you'll feel better.Sun-hee :Are you kidding? I can't eat. I'm not hungry.Takeshi: Maybe you should go for a walk-- you know, get some fresh air--Sun-hee :No, I just need to rest.Tara: (phone rings) Hello? Yes ... no, this is her roommate, Tara. What? OK--I'll let her know. Thanks. (to Sun-hee) That was the president's secretary,Sun-hee :What did she say?Tara: She told me to tell you that tonight's meeting has been canceled.Sun-hee: Oh, thank goodness. Uh--Mike, can you hand me that orange juice?Tara: (to Takeshi) I don't know maybe we should call a doctor.Takeshi: (to Tara as Sun-hee starts eating and drinking) Yeah, maybe we should.Sun-hee: What's the matter? Haven't you ever seen anyone eating before?Tara: (to Sun-hee) I take it you're feeling better?Sun-hee: I am feeling pretty good. It must be a miracle, or something.Tara: (to Takeshi) Or a lucky phone call.Track 3-4-OL-9Sun-hee doesn’t feel well, so Tara asks Takeshi and Mike to come over. When they arrive, Takeshi asks Sun-hee how she is feeling. Sun-hee says she’s very tired, a little dizzy, and that she might even have a fever. Tara then explains that Sun-hee has also been very anxious about a meeting with the president of her university. Mike tells Sun-hee to eat something, but she says.” I can’t eat. I’m not hungry.” Then the phone rings. It’s the president’s secretary. She tells Tara to tell Sun-hee that tonight’s meeting has been canceled. When Sun-hee gets the news, she starts to feel much better and says,” it must be a miracle or something.” But her friends know it’s not a miracle. She was just really nervous about the meeting!Unit 7． Lesson ATrack 3-7-1 Track 3-7-2Conversation 1Host: Hello, Spencer. How are you?Spencer: Fine, thank you. I'm excited to be here.Host: Great!

When I’m 23, I may come home to look for a job. Most probably in a bank or an accounting firm. After working for 4 to 5 years, I may have some savings to start a family. At the age of 30, I’d like to be a father. If everything goes smoothly,I’ll retire at the age of 50 and travel around the world.Audio Track 3-3-6Hi Jackie,I’m so excited about visiting you! Here are the details. My plane arrives on Friday at 2 p.m. When I get to the airport, I’ll take a taxi, so I’ll arrive at your house at about 3:00. That evening, Jeff and Carol are taking us out for dinner at a nice restaurant. I really want to spend Saturday at the beach. I’m bringing my swimsuit and beach clothes. I looked at the weather forecast on the Internet. The weather is going to be sunny and beautiful. I’ll see you soon!KaitlynAudio Track 3-3-7/ Audio Track 3-3-8Celebrating life changesIn Mexico and some other Latin American countries, girls mark their fifteenth birthday with a celebration called the Quinceanera. In the morning, the birthday girl goes to church with her family and her best friends. She wears a beautiful (and sometimes very expensive!) dress. Later in the day, there is a huge party, with a big cake that matches the girl’s dress, and a night filled with music and dancing.When older people in the United States retire, their friends and coworkers often give them a retirement party to celebrate this life change. On their last day of work, there is a big dinner, with entertainment afterward. People make speeches and tell jokes about the retiree. Guests like to give presents, such as an album of photos of the retiree’s coworkers, or a homemade video of the retiree’s friends.Becoming an adult is a very important life change, and Japan has a special holiday to celebrate this. The second Sunday in January is Coming-of-Age Day. On that day, everyone who had their twentieth birthday in the last year goes to their town’s City Hall for a special ceremony. Everyone dresses up, and many women wear beautiful kimonos. The mayor makes a speech and gives presents to all the new adults.Some kids are afraid to start school, but six-year-olds in Germany can’t wait. For them, Schulanfang is a big holiday. To celebrate a child’s first day of school, parents or friends give the child a Zuckertuete, a big colorful cardboard cone filled with candy and little presents. People take pictures of the kids holding their Zuckertuete, and there is a school party later for the parents, with cake and coffee.Audio Track 3-3-9Coping with life’s st ressorsLet’s face it: Life is stressful. Stressful events in our lives are called “stressors.” Some of them are minor, such as uncomfortable air conditioning or a loudly ringing telephone. Others are more serious, such as the death of a spouse. That event tops the list as life’s most stressful event.You might be surprised to learn about the top 20 life stressors. Getting a divorce, for example, is number 2 on the list. And not all stressors are unhappy events. Pregnancy is a happy time for most families. It may also cause stress. Pregnancy is right below retirement on the list of life’s major stressors. We can’t avoid stress, but we can do something about it. Listen to three people talking about their responses to stress in their lives.Tina Vega, 16Last year was horrible! My family moved to another town. I had to change schools and say good-bye to all my friends. It was really tough. I felt so lonely in my new school.

Roberto, however, said his life was planned already, almost right up to retirement. He thought it was important to have well-defined goals, but Claudia said that Roberto should keep his options open, and “go with the flow.” Roberto agreed, but only if the “flow” followed his plan!。

M：我想他们不说话是因为他们的文化价值观的谦虚，他们不想炫耀。

Eliza:American people also compete with each other at work and at climbing the social ladder.Alan: But there’s such competition in other countries as well.Eliza:You’re right in a sense, but the author says the idea of competing is more deeply rooted in the minds of Americans.
