Hi, everybody. Welcome to Studio Classroom Worldwide. Thanks for joining us. My name is Steve. Is it time to leave your job? Well, that’s the question we’re asking in this month’s CAREERS feature. Now the thought of quitting your job may panic you. After all, your job gives you and your family financial security, you’ve become really goo d at doing that job, and you might even have developed some good relationships with your co-workers. So yes, you might be in a safe and comfortable place right now. But don’t ever ignore the warning signs to leave a job or you will put yourself in distress. Let’s open to page 12 now and learn exactly what some of these warning signs are.
Is It Time to Leave Your Job?
If you see these warning signs, maybe it’s time to quit. In a bad economy, it might seem strange to consider quitting your job. However, sometimes resigning is the best way for you to move forward. Here are some signs that may point you toward the exit door:
1. Your work environment is not healthy. Stress is part of any job. But sometimes the frustrations of your job can begin to harm you. They can make you sick or depressed. If you hate going to work, it’s time to leave.
Hey, everyone. We are so glad you can join us today. My name is Ryan. And my name is Kaylah. Today we are talking about CAREERS. Our article is called: Is It Time to Leave Your Job? Now Ryan, often we talk about getting jobs, so it’s a little odd to talk about leaving a job.
Exactly, yeah. We often look at how you can find your new career, but now we’re going to look at whether or not you should leave your current job. So this month we are going to talk about things that you should use to decide if you should leave your job. If you see these warning signs, maybe it’s time to quit.
Now”warning signs” usually refer to something that gives you a warning, which makes sense. But they are not going to be actual signs like on the street, maybe traffic signs. There will not be signs like this in your life. So we’re going to look at things that you can take as warning signs, something that you can be looking for in your career and in your life to maybe change your career.
Yeah, and these warning signs will often present themselves, or usually pretty easy to see. And we’re going to tell you what some of them are so you can look at your job situation and decide for yourself whether or not you should stay. Well, in a bad economy, it might seem strange to consider quitting your job. And that’s true, Kaylah, right now there is a bad economy.
That’s right. The economy refers to the money that is being made and the way the exchange of money between companies and people. So it does seem weird when the economy is not good,
when there is not a lot of money, when things are expensive to quit your job because that is how you provide for your family, provide for yourself. So it is odd, it does seem bizarre, a little strange to consider quitting your job. However, sometimes resigning is the best way for you to move forward. Exactly, and so “resigning” means that you quit your job. Usually when you resign, you tell your boss that you are leaving. So you have decided you don’t want to work there anymore, and you tell your boss, “I am resigning. I’m quitting this job.” And that’s a great way to move forward.
That’s right. You’re giving up the position. You are not being told to leave. You make that decision for yourself. Now sometimes this is the best way to move forward. If you’re in a bad job and a bad situation, you cannot create a better situation until you move on. Well, here are some signs that may point you toward the exit door. And that just means towards a way of getting out or telling you you should get out of a bad job.
That’s right. We’re going to show you some of those warning signs that you should use, if you see any of these, to decide to leave your job. Now the first one is”Your work environment is not healthy.” Now that’s a very good, a very important warning sign. If your work environment is not healthy, that doesn’t mean it has anything to do with how you are eating or exercise, it has to do with how you are treated.
That’s right, how you feel, how you’re feeling at work, the way you’re being treated at work. It says” Stress is part of any job.” That is something we all do need to accept that there are times when we will be stressed. No matter how much you enjoy your job; there are still moments where you will be stressed. There will be stress in your life. But sometimes the frustration of your job can begin to harm you. And that’s what you need to be looking for, Ryan, is if you’re in a situation with the stress is too much, it’s starting to cause you to get sick, that is a... that is not a healthy environment anymore.
Yeah. So here it actually is... it can affect your body too. But there are also... there could be many frustrations. And a frustration, of course, is something that you just don’t like. It’s hard to deal with. And so all of us, we usually have some kind of frustration in your job. But if there are too many, they can harm you. They can make you feel sick or even depressed.
And “depressed” here is some... is an unhappy feeling, but more than just not being happy. It means you have no hope for a future, no hope that the future will be better, that there is a future that things will continue to get better. Depressed is both a medical condition and a word that we use to refer to being extremely sad. Here I think it more refers to actually having no hope because that’s what you need in a job is a future.
Exactly, yeah. In fact, we’ve talked in the past about how you should always be wanting to improve at your job. You should be wanting to learn. If you’re feeling depressed, that usually means you feel sad to the point where you don’t want to learn, you really don’t want to keep going to work. And that’s not the way you should feel about your job. You shouldn’t be going to work just to make money. You should really enjoy it. You should want to go to work. So we see: If you hate going to
work, maybe it’s time to leave.
That’s right. If you hate going to work, if you wake up in the morning and the first thing you think is, “I hate my job. I don’t want to go to work,” that’s probably a good sign that it is maybe time to leave that company or to leave that part of your career. Now Ryan, I know sometimes there are mornings where even if you do love your job, you wake up just not wanting to go in. That’s not what this is talking about. This is talking about a very consistent dislike and hatred of your job, of what the work you’re doing.
Yeah, it’s not just you feel tired one morning, and you don’t want to go to work, so you quit. No. It is as if it is continuing throughout your job. If you feel like you’re not being treated well and you feel depressed, maybe it’s time to find another job. Well, come back after the break. We’re going to look at more warning signs to decide whether or not you should leave your job. Before we go, let’s visit the Chat Room.
?So Rachel, where has Heather been recently? I haven’t seen her working in the library for a couple of weeks now.
?Well, that’s because she’s on sick leave. You know, actually, she got pneumonia. So she’s been recovering at home for a while. Sick leave is when your work grants you a leave of absence due to illness.
?I’ve never had to take sick leave from work before.
?Wow! You’ve been lucky, I guess. Sometimes employees get really sick, and they need to take a lot of time off before they come back to work.
?Have you ever taken an absent leave, Rachel?
?Uh, you mean a leave of absence?
?Oh, yeah, a leave of absence?
?Yes, I’ve taken a couple of leaves of absence. When my boys were born, I took maternity leave for six weeks with each child. The library was nice enough to give me six weeks off.
?Did your husband take maternity leave too?
?No, only women take maternity leave. He took paternity leave.
?Paternity leave?
?Right. That’s what we call “leave for new fathers.” However, paternity leave is usually very short.
Some countries in Europe have a long paternity leave. But my husband’s company only gave him one week off with pay.
?I see. So are there other kinds of work leave?
?Yes. Bereavement leave is paid leave that an employee is entitled to because of the death of a family member. So when my grandpa died, I took a week of bereavement leave so I could go to his funeral in Ohio.
?I had to take bereavement leave when my grandma died, I just didn’t know what to call it. So the word”bereavement” refers to the death of a loved one, right?
?That’s right .Well, you know, Ken, I’m glad you asked me about Heather because I’ve been meaning to give her a call to see how she’s feeling. I hope she can come back to work soon.
?Me too. It’s not the same here without her.

Welcome back, everybody .Friends, there is a right time to leave your job and there’s a wrong time. It would be wrong to leave when your boss gives you a strange look, or to resign after the copy machine breaks down. So then, when is the right time? Honestly, I don’t know. Every person has a different “quitting point.” But I can tell you this; most people who leave their jobs say they regret that they didn’t do it sooner. From this, we learned the importance of listening to your gut instinct. OK, time to move on to our second warning sign, “You need more income,” on line 10. (Music).
Is It Time to Leave Your Job?
2. You need more income. Maybe you thought the salary was OK when you took the job. However, now you need more income to support your family because of different life circumstances. Or maybe you feel that you’re not making what you’re worth.
3. You are not being challenged. You have been in your position for a while, and your skills have improved. Now the work you’re doing no longer seems interesting. Maybe you can get more responsibility at a different job.
Hello, friends. We are going to look at more warning signs that maybe you should leave your job. Now it doesn’t make sense usually in a bad economy, when money is not easily there, to quit your job because that is your way of getting money, but sometimes it is important. Now before the break, we did talk about the first sign, and that’s about a healthy work environment. Our next one to look out for a warning sign is if you need more income.
That’s right.”If you need more money...” income is the amount of money that you are earning at your job. And this makes sense. If you are not making the amount of money that you need, then maybe it would be a good time to find a new job. Maybe you thought the salary was OK when you took the job. And of course, that’s something that we mostly look at when we decide if we want to get a job is if there is enough salary.
That’s right.”Salary” refers to the agreed-upon amount of money that you make in an entire year, so not by the week or by the month, but by the year. It talks about the entire sum of that money. Now Ryan, what would be the difference then between your salary and your income? Why do we have two separate words?
Well, salary, like you said, is the amount of money you’re making every year. It is decided. Income is the actual money that you earn at your job, so. The money that you’re making, whether it is hourly or whether it is on a salary that is your income. That’s the money that you can use to spend on bills or things that you want to buy. And so here maybe you saw the salary that you were going to earn at your job was good, but now you need more income. You need more money to support your family because of different life circumstances.
That’s right. Life changes all the time. Yeah. You may take a job thinking that the salary is what you need. And then maybe you have another child. Maybe someone is added to your family. Maybe you get a dog, or maybe you buy a house. There are different things in life that come into life that do change the amount of money we need all the times. All the time, our circumstances are changing. And it’s good to be aware of that.
That’s right. Now circumstances, or the word “circumstance,” which is talking about a fact or an event that has... makes a situation the way that it is. So if you have a situation in your life that changes, then you have different circumstances. And so our lives are always changing. Once we start a job, maybe we decide to travel more, maybe we decide we want to buy nicer things.That would mean that our situation or our circumstances are changing.
It says or, you know, your circumstances may change, or maybe you feel that you are not making what you’re worth. And I know, unfortunately, that happens a lot. When you’re working, you’re giving a lot of effort. You’re putting 100 percent of your focus into your job, and you’re giving so much. And you’re not getting paid the amount that you are giving in, putting into the job. You are worth more. And sometimes, Ryan, that’s true. You can be worth more than what you’re getting paid. So it’s important to think about that in a job.
That’s right. Yeah, we usually think of the word “worth” referring to how much money something is. But here we’re talking about how your skills are used. Maybe you have spent a lot of time in school. You spent a lot of time practicing. You have skills, but you’re not being paid very much money for using them, so. You know, maybe if you’re not getting paid very much money, if you need more income, it’s time to look for a new job.
That’s right. And along the line of skills, our next point is “You are not being challenged.” Now that is very important. In a job, you don’t want to be over challenged. You don’t want to be doing something you are not prepared for. But you also do not want to be in a job where you have no place to grow, where there’s nothing to continue onward if you’re staying in the same place. We need to always be learning. We need to be lifelong learners, always pursuing knowledge. So this is part of being in a job is being challenged.
That’s right, yeah. Usually we think of a challenge is being something that’s hard to deal with, and that’s true. And you usually don’t want too many challenges, but you don’t want no challenges either. You want there to be a little bit of challenge that we are always learning. You’re always trying to improve, so you...We see here You have been in your position for a while, and your skills have improved. That’s good. That’s what you want at your job.
So that is a good situation to be in, your skills are improving. But now the work you’re doing no longer seems interesting.” That is something that you need to think about. If you’re bored at work, if you’re sitting just looking on the Internet doing nothing, that is something to consider. Maybe moving on is a good idea.
Yeah, that’s true. Maybe you’re skilled in music, but you’re sitting there looking at reports. It’s not necessarily going to help you improve, so maybe you can get more responsibility at a different job.” And that’s true. You want to have responsibility. If you’re responsible, it means you can take care of different tasks.
That’s right. You don’t want to sit in an office or in any sort of work environment just being bored, doing nothing, feeling like you have put nothing into your job. That is... await the end of day when you just don’t feel good about yourself .So if that’s the way your job is going, it just might be a good
time to consider looking for a new career.
Yeah, it might be time to find a different job. These are very good tips to help you realize if the job you are in might not be the right job for you. It might be time for you to find a different job. Join us tomorrow as we will tell you more tips about finding the right job for you. We’ll see you next time. Before you leave, let’s watch today’s skit.
?Smith, give me a cup of coffee.
?No!
?No?
?No. Mr. Jones. I’m leaving this job. It’s time to quit.
?But the economy is bad right now. How can you consider quitting?
?Warning signs are pointing me toward the exit door.
?What warning signs?
?Frustration and stress. This work environment is not healthy.
?Not healthy? What do you mean?
?I’m sick and depressed. I hate coming to work.
?So you hate this job, and you think it’s time to leave.
?Right. Besides, I need more income.
?But your salary was OK when you started.
?But circumstances change. I have a family now. Besides, I’m not making what I’m worth.
?You’re making what you’re worth.
?No. I’ve been at this position for quite a while. My skills have improved.
?So your work is easier now.
?That’s good. But I’m not challenged. My work no longer seems interesting.
?OK, so you hate this job, and you need more income, and your job is not challenging?
?Exactly. So, I’m resigning .I’m moving forward. I’m quitting.
?Well, not so fast, Smith. Take more time to think about it.
?Well, hmm...
?And uh, while you’re thinking about it, get me another cup of coffee.
?Hmm...
(Chinese).
And you don’t want to miss what comes next. Stay tuned. Thank you so much, Michelle. We appreciate those tips. Friends, if you know in your gut that it’s time to quit your job, note that it will require a measure of courage, passion and confidence. It will likely cost you some money as well. If you think the cost is too much, though, consider that staying will likely cost you even more. Working at a bad job long enough can rob your energy, your motivation, self-worth, possibly your health. And in a worst case scenario, your very life. OK, more signs that it’s time to resign tomorrow. As always, I and everyone else here at Studio Classroom hope you have a great day. Bye-bye. (Music).

1. Teaching and Learning Teaching is supposed to be a professional activity requiring long and complicated training as well as official certification. The act of teaching is looked upon as a flow of knowledge from a higher source to an empty container. The student’s role is one of receiving information, while the teacher’s is one of sending it. There is a clear distinction assumed between one who is supposed to know and another, usually, younger person who is supposed not to know. However, teaching needn’t be a province of a sp ecial group of people nor need it looked upon as a technical skill .Teaching can be more like guiding and assisting than forcing information into a supposedly empty head. If you have a certain skill, you should be able to share it with someone. You don’t h ave to get certified to convey what you know to someone else or to help them in their attempts to teach themselves. 2. Comets In recent years, scientists’ investigation of comet has increased because of a growing interest in the origin of the sun and planets. Scientists want to learn how comets are formed. They think such information will help to explain the origin of the solar system. The word “comet” comes from Greek and means “hairy object”. In history comets have a special place. People believed that they brought

四级听写： The African elephant The African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on earth ,is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统) As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives, setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat (栖息地). It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem. （158 words） 2. What is a Father A father is a person who is forced to endure childbirth without an anesthetic. He growl s when he feels good, and laughs very loud when he is scared half-to-death. A father never feels entirely worthy of the worship in a child's eyes. He is never quite the hero his daughter thinks. Never quite the man his son believes him to be, and this worries him sometimes. A father is a person who goes to war sometimes and would run the other way except that war is part of his only important job in his life, which is making the world better for his child than it has been for him. I don't know where father goes when he dies, but I've an idea that, after a good rest, wherever it is, he won't just sit on a cloud and wait for the girl he's loved and the children she bore. He'll be busy there too, repairing the stars, oiling the gates, improving the streets, smoothing the way. (173 words) 3 Depression The dictionary describes depression as the state of feeling very sad, anxious and hopeless. The question here is why one gets depressed. Is the inability to deal with the situation or the high stress levels that come with success or failure? Life is full of twists and turns. Some are pleasant and some are not so pleasant, and sometimes even terrible.
基于多模态理论的高中英语词汇教学探究 文档
基于多模态理论的高中英语词汇教学探究高一开学初，笔者所教班级参加了外研社“优诊学―高中生英语成长诊断学习系统”平台的综合测试和词汇量测试，结果发现词汇量越大的学生在综合测试中表现越突出。英国语言学家 “Without grammar very little can be conveyed；Wilkins曾说： without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed.”由此可见， 词汇是英语学习的基础，学生词汇量的大小直接影响他们听、说、读、写各方面的能力和表现。但是在访谈和问卷调查中很多学生反映词汇学习主要靠死记硬背，要么背了就忘，要么记住了但不会用，而教师的词汇教学大多很传统而且形式单一。随着信息技术的快速发展和教育改革的不断深入，信息的呈现更加多元化，这就需要教师们与时俱进，改变传统教学理念，寻找多元、高效的教学模式。多模态词汇教学正好可以填补传统词汇教学的不足，让词汇学习变得有趣而高效。 一、多模态的基本概念 多模态教学理论由New London Group在1996年提出，虽然至今只有二十年，它已被广泛运用到语言教学等诸多领域。Gunther Kress和Van Leeuwen（2001）指出：模态是同步实现话语和交 流的符号资源，是人通过视觉、听觉、触觉等感官跟外部环境之间的互动方式。多模态是多种模态的混合体，是通过语言、图像、声音、动作等多种手段和符号资源进行交际的现象，
它往往调用两个及以上的感官参与互动。多模态理论的提出让人们意识到意义不仅可以通过语言来传递，还可以通过非语言符号资源（静态和动态）的综合运用来实现。在国内，关于多模态理论的研究开始于二十一世纪初，正处于起步阶段。在多模态理论中，传统被称为副语言的图像、声音、动作等也被提到了重要地位。 二、多模态理论在高中英语词汇教学中的运用 多模态教学的核心就是多元化、多角度、多层次地进行教学活动。高中英语词汇在读音、构成、用法、话题等方面都为多模态教学提供了一定的空间，教师可以根据词汇的不同特点来选择不同的模态进行教学。下面从张德禄的模态分类中选取几种常用的模态进行分析。 （图1） （一）文字的运用 文字对于教学来说是必不可少的。无论是课本、练习，还是教师的教案、板书、PPT等都离不开文字，它既是传统词汇教学的基础，也是多模态词汇教学的基础。多模态下的文字不仅仅是教材、板书、教案中的文字，还可以是网络新闻、歌词、视频字幕等。在多模态英语词汇教学中，教师首先要扩大课外阅读，多累积优质的英语素材，在授课时多提供地道、真实的语境文本帮助学生多维度了解词汇的用法。也可以在教室里设立“English Corner”或者“Word Bank”，不定期张贴一些与重点词汇或者．
空中英语教室自学系列1
空中英語教室自學系列Part I 作者：王鵬順東吳大學語言中心組員 適合對象：適合用「聽」的方式來學習的人。 具備能力：大一程度，能聽懂大家說英語的學習者。 準備工具：空中英語教室Studio Classroom或Advanced彭蒙惠英語雜誌、廣播教學版、筆記本。 預期目標：建立個人學習策略，長期下來可提升寫作能力，加強文法觀念。 自我評鑑：個人累積的筆記內文及冊數越多，進步的機會就越大。 前言 空中英語教室歷史悠久，在媒體還不太發達的時候，許多人是透過電台廣播的方式學習英文，空中英語教室就是老字號的教學節目。最早，一本雜誌內包含了實用（Basic）及進修（Advanced）兩個等級；發展至今，這兩個等級已分為兩本雜誌發行，一本仍然叫做空中英語教室Studio Classroom，另一本則叫做Advanced彭蒙惠英語。儘管如此，這兩種都是很不錯的英語學習雜誌。另外，還有一本雜誌－大家說英語，則較適合國、高中程度的初級學習者。 說明 這份學習單張的主要目的是要幫助學習者，透過「聽」的方式，搭配閱讀雜誌劃記重點，建立屬於自己的學習策略。本文將就下面幾個部分一一說明：收聽前的疑惑、收聽前的準備、收聽時如何做筆記、雜誌內文劃記重點、如何利用所做的筆記。 【收聽前的疑惑】 - 是用「聽」來學，還是要用「聽與看」來學？ 每個人有不同的學習風格，一般來講，可分為三種：視覺學習、聽覺學習及觸覺學習。不論是哪一種，瞭解自己擅長的學習方式，才能有效建立個人的學習策略。這三種學習方式，概略敘述如下：
「視覺學習」是最為普遍的使用方式，凡是用到眼睛的，都可以算是視覺學習。有的人特別擅長於視覺學習，也就是說，靠的是圖表或文字的編排方式、整體的相關位置等等來學習或記憶，就好比光靠課堂中的聽講不一定全吸收得進去，但是回家看一遍課本就記住了。屬於視覺學習的人，建議將繁雜的內容做成圖表，或是將內容多「看」幾遍，甚至在背誦英文單字時，可以將一個個的字母想像成一幅幅的圖畫，有助於記憶。 「聽覺學習」著重於對聲音的感受和接受度，若光聽老師上課就吸收了百分之八十的內容，就是適合聽覺學習。擅長聽覺學習的人，不用說，當然是上課的時候要專心「聽」講，或者錄下來反覆聆聽，甚至可以運用各種聲音的想像，將枯燥乏味的文言文編成一首歌，或是將要背誦的重點改成一句順口溜，也就是將傳統的「視覺學習」轉變成自己可以接受的「聽覺學習」。 「觸覺學習」可能是較為陌生的詞，舉凡用到身體各個部位的大小肌肉，都可算是「觸覺學習」。從小，我們就被要求在教室裡要安靜地坐在椅子上，不可以亂動；然而對於某些學生來說，「維持端坐」反而要花掉他們大半的注意力，這時候學習的效果就大打折扣了。因此，若是習慣一邊看書，一邊甩筆、吃口香糖、咬指甲、玩頭髮、抖腳等等，在不妨礙他人的情況下，這些小動作是不應該被禁止的。此外，「觸覺學習」其實還包括了「自己動手做」，最常見的就是學校的實驗課以及在家裡自行拆組用品器具。 也許你會問，既然視覺是最常被使用的方式，是不是不該用「聽」廣播英語來學習英文？仔細想想，雖然是用聽的，可不是完全沒用到視覺喔，還必須搭配閱讀雜誌上的文章、圖片、圖表，才能真正熟習。以看電視上播送的空中英語教室節目而言，學習者必須處理的資訊除了「聽覺」之外，尚需處理大量的視覺資訊，例如臉部表情與肢體語言等，而這些視覺資訊絕對有利於理解。因此，學習目標若是要加強會話能力，收看此類視覺節目會有不錯的效益。 - 聽Basic 或Advanced？ 這個問題困擾過許多學習者，以筆者的學習經驗而言，Basic對於初次接觸者來說，可能還是有點難以接受，但若能夠耐心聽完，配合適當的學習策略來進行，難度就會隨著每日的收聽學習而逐漸降低。當你覺得Basic似乎沒有那麼難了，應該也可以慢慢接受Advanced。 那麼答案到底是什麼？筆者認為最好兩個等級都聽。對剛入門的收聽者而言，建議每個等級聽兩次，Basic兩次，Advanced兩次。以這樣的次數持續約一個月後，你就會發現自己慢慢能夠聽懂Basic了，此時再依據個人狀況調整為收聽Basic一次，但Advanced或許還是頗難的，那就繼續維持兩次。到第三個月後，多數人會發現也聽得

历年英语专业四级考试听力听写原文（1994年-2007年） The American Family (1994) The concept of family life has changed considerably over the years. / In earliest times, several generations lived together in clans, / which consisted of all living descendents and their husbands or wives. / These clans were almost totally self-sufficient, / every member contributing in some way toward the survival of the group. / The men hunted and fished for food or sometimes maintained flocks of sheep or goats. / The women baked bread and roasted the meat their men provided. / Special members of the community were selected to make products like pottery, baskets and home weapons. / But with the development of greater varieties of food, clothing and shelter, / a single clan could no longer develop all the individual skills the group required. / Clans merged into larger societies and at the same time broke into smaller units consisting of married couples and their children. / Later the Industrial Revolution brought about even more important changes in family life. / New inventions brought shorter working hours for men and easier housekeeping routines for women. / Today a productive family life suggests not the group's cooperative efforts of working together, / but the pleasant and meaningful sharing of its leisure. Unidentified Flying Objects (1995) There are many explanations for why UFOs visit the Earth. / The most popular one is that they maybe visitors from other planets./ To fly such aircraft, their builders must develop different forms of aviation,/because they seem to fly much faster than normal aircraft./ The UFOs, it is believed, must contain scientists/ from other planets who are studying life on earth./ It is even believed that several such aircraft may have landed on earth/ and the space visitors may be living amongst us./ But there are also less fantastic explanations available./ Although some sightings of UFOs are difficult to explain, most can be explained quite easily./ In many cases the observers might have made a mistake./ They might have seen a weather balloon or an aircraft./ Or the light they saw in the sky might have been light from the ground,/ reflected on to the clouds./ However, the exact cause of many sightings still remained a mystery. The Indian Medicine Man (1996) Among the Indians of North America, the medicine man was a very important person. He could cure illness and he could speak to the spirits. The spirits were the supernatural forces that controlled the world. The Indians believed that bad spirits made people ill. So when people were ill, the medicine man tried to help them by using magic. He spoke to the good spirits and asked for their help. Many people were cured, because they thought the spirits were helping them, but really these people cured themselves. Sometimes your own mind is the best doctor for you. The medicine men were often successful for another reason, too. They knew about plants that really can cure illness. A lot of medicines are made from the plants that were used by medicine men hundred of years ago. Legal Age for Marriage (1997)
英语专业四级听写50篇(完整版)
英语专业四级听写50篇 前言 听写在英语专业四级统考中占有15％的比重，是考试的重要组成部分。 说起听写，正在准备和已经参加过英语专业四级考试的同学会说： “我能明白听写的内容，可写的时候就是跟不上！”“短文大意我明白，可是有的语我不 会写。” 这只反映出了问题的两个方面。一是听写速度不够快。二是词汇量不够或词汇掌握得不够准确。这些无疑是影响听写成绩的重要因素。但是，这些不是问题的全部。在从事听写教学及听写问卷过程中，很容易发现学生失分的具体问题： （1）没听懂，没听好，听写速度跟不上，写出的内容断断续续不连贯，学生因此大量失分； （2）有的词汇没听懂，拼写不够准确，这导致听写失分； （3）时态错误导致失分； （4）单复数不准确导致失分； （5）没有注意断句或专有名词，句子开头单词或专有名词错误使用大小写导致失分； （6）没有注意原文冠词的使用，书写时漏掉冠词导 致失分； （7）没有注意单数第三人称形式导致失分； （8）没有注意单数复数名词的形式导致失分。 上述问题的产生有的是缺乏训练造成的，如书写速度跟不上。有的则是语言基础较 差造成的，如听力较差没有完全听懂或没有掌握好词汇。而单复数、大小写、冠词漏写 等则多是粗心大意造成的。 听写部分能提高吗？ 当然能！而且提高的空间很大。 笔者从事英语专业基础教学与研究，从一开始所带的教学班参加四级考试超过全国 院校平均通过率28．2个百分点，超过全国专业外语院校平均通过率12．5个百分点开始，所带的教学班在全国英语专业④级统考中通过率始终ito％，平均成绩、优秀率始终名列 前茅。最近一次所带的教学班参加四级统考，又考出了很好的成绩，通过率超过全国院 校平均水平26石个百分点，超过全国专业外语院校13．6个百分点，而且在十几个平行 班中平均成绩是最高的，优秀人数也是最多的。在四级考试中，听写一项的成绩也不例外，每次均位居第一，本项目满分15分，所带班级平均成绩能够达到14分。 是不是学生基础很好？统计表明，和平行班相比所带班级入学时并不存在什么特别 优势。 教学经验表明，听写成功的关键是训练方法和体现训练方法的训练材料。 听写训练过程中无论是老师还是学生都有必要注意以下几点： 二．扭握淤轿肘虚度大纲要求第一遍用正常速
