Community,简称EEC,它是法国、联邦德国、意大利、荷兰、比利时、卢森堡根据1957年3月25日签定无限期有效的《罗马条约》而建立的,该条约于1958年1月正式生效。以后陆续加入的有:英国、爱尔兰、丹麦、希腊、西班牙、葡萄牙。在欧洲经济共同体成立之前,已经有1952年生效的欧洲煤钢联营组织(ECSC)。《罗马条约》不仅建立了欧洲经济共同体,而且还建立了欧洲原子能共同体(Euratom),1967年7月欧洲煤钢联营组织、欧洲原子能共同体和欧洲经济共同体合而为一,组成了统一的管理机构,该称为欧洲共同体(简称欧共体,European

Community)。共同体成立以后,逐步朝经济一体化和政治一体化的目标推进。在经济方面,已建立了关税同盟,对外实行统一的关税制度,并开始实行共同农业政策,逐步形成一个货物、劳力、劳务和资本自由流通的市场。在政治上,要求把共同体建成政治上统一的欧洲联盟,加强协商制度。共同体合计国民生产总值仅次于美国。该共同体和非洲、加勒比海和太平洋地区的发展中国家先后签定了3个《洛美协定》,就发展中国家同西欧工业发达国家之间的贸易经济关系作了规定。欧共体对世界经济有着巨大的影响。到80年代末,欧洲统一市场建立在即,1991年12月9日至11日,欧共体12国国家或政府首脑云集荷兰马斯特里赫特城,讨论和修改了主席国荷兰提出的经济货币联盟和政治联盟条约草案,并于1992年2月履行了《欧洲联盟条约》的签字手续,至此,欧洲联盟(European

Are you going to be proud of what you are doing? Are you earning less than others in the same position? You may approach friends, relatives or career advisors for such information.It’s also a good idea to explore further into a certain job position at the interview.To discuss things like what you are expected to do exactly at work and what you can obtain from the job will impress the interviewers that you are rather serious about the job offer.B.询问某人的工作情况可从以下几个方面着手:

1)询问某人是干什么的:

What is your job? What do you do for a living? 2)在哪里工作:

Where do you work? 3)询问某人的职责:

What do you do there? 4)对工作的感受:

How do you like your work? C.Words and expressions relating to income:

salary: fixed compensation for services, paid to a person on a regular

basis薪水,薪金,付给一个人的固定劳动补偿,尤指公职人员,职员等拿的按年、按月或按周计算的年薪,月薪或周薪。

Describe people’s appearance

1.整体描写和局部描写

在描写人物时,我们通常会使用一些形容词描述人的身体各部分:体形、脸形、面颊、鼻子、眼睛、嘴巴、下巴、牙齿、头发的颜色和发型以及肤色等。有些形容词属于整体描写,例如:cool(酷),fashionable(时髦的), healthy, strong, tall, meager, smart,kind等;有些形容词属于局部描写,需要与某些身体器

官搭配使用,例如:round face, deep-set eyes(深陷的双眼),red

cheeks(红色的面颊), crooked nose(鹰钩鼻子),pointed chin(尖下巴),big mouth, even teeth

(平整的牙齿),blonde hair(金发), curly hair(卷发), sunburned skin(晒黑的皮肤)等。

2.生理特征的描写和人格特征的描写

以上与人体器官搭配的形容词都属于生理特征描写。但除了生理描写外,我们也可以描写人的性格特征,例如:generous

(慷慨的),modest(谦虚的),honest, serious, obstinate(固执的), self-conceited(自负的),kind-hearted(善良的)等

3.单个形容词和复合形容词

有些形容词由单个词构成,例如:tall, short, fat, thin slim

;有些形容词由两、三个词共同构成,成为复合形容词,例如:snow-white(雪白的),suntanned(黝黑的),ordinary-looking(相貌平平的)warm-hearted(热心的)等。

4.常用于人物描写的语法结构

系动词+形容词或名词

【例句】My brother is tall and handsome.He is tall and sturdy(强壮).The boy is extremely bright.My mother is thrifty with money.As a child, he is meager(瘦的)and weak.The old man looks thin.He looks old and his hair is all white.The girl tends to be jealous of those who make greater progress.形容词+名词

a wrinkled face a bad temper

a pretty girl a timid boy

Tom has a strong body and high intelligence.动词+副词

【例句】live happily;work actively

介词+名词

【例句】of medium build;of great wisdom

5.描写人物的基本原则

1)描写要具体,避免笼统化,应注重细节描写,体现人物的音容笑貌。在实践中,学习者要避一些泛泛而谈的词,例如:awful, bad,beautiful, fine, good, great, interesting, lovely, nice, pretty,wonderful等。好的描写需要注意具体的细节,所以用词要具体化。

【例句】He was thin, short, and dark.His hair was like a bundle of straw.His

dirty clothes and tired look were clearly signs of a long travel.His

clothes were made of cheap cloth.The coat was too short and the trousers

too loose.And he wore a pair of rubber shoes, which were very

unfashionable.He did not look smart at all.2)生理特征描写应与人物的性格、思想和要表达的情感相结合,并通过具体的事例得以体现,表现出人物的特性和特征。

【例句】Most Jewish women of her age were sickly, weak, broken in body.But this washwoman, small and thin as she was, possessed a strength that came from generations of peasant ancestors.His gaunt, expressive face was dominated by piercing eyes, conveying a mixture of intensity and repose, of wariness and calm self-confidence.He wore an immaculately tailored gray coat, at once simple and elegant.He moved gracefully and with dignity, filling a room tot by his physical dominance but by his air of controlled tension, steely discipline, and self-control.As if he were a boiled spring.He conveyed an easy casualness, which, however, did not deceive the careful observer.The quick smile, the comprehending expression that made clear that he understood English even without translation, the palpable alertness, were clearly the features of a man who had had burned into him by a searing half-century the vital importance of

self-possession.Function and Structure 1.It is important to learn how to say thanks and how to show your appreciation the proper way.Here are some tips: At a party —Take your cue from the host.If he went to the trouble to mail an invitation, send him a note in return.Receiving a Gift—If you thank a person profusely(极多地)after receiving a gift, it’s not necessary to send a note —so it makes you look extra-classy when you do.A business Function —If you’ve been at a formal business meeting and want to thank potential clients or business partners, type a paper note.If the event is a lunch or social function, write it by hand.2.In business, it is customary to express appreciation to people who help your company succeed.In fact, the absence of a ―thank you‖ may be misunderstood to mean the effort was not appreciated.Thanking customers has always been very effective for building royalty, demonstrating corporate commitment to service, generating referral business and differentiating a

business from the rest.There are a variety of ways to express gratitude.The way in which you thank your customers does not have to cost a lot of money and nothing says ―you are important‖ like a handwritten note.A short handwritten note has the power of personal engagement and high impact.It’s a small gesture but keeps customers coming back.Inside a business, when a boss wants to motivate his or her employees, a simple ―thank you‖ also works best.A smart employer knows it well that frequent recognition of accomplishments is the best way to encourage employees.Homework 1.Vocabulary 2.Grammar 3.Reading Summary In this unit, students have known main content of this unit.After class, students should learn more details.

第五篇:精读教案6

Unit 6 Jewelry

Teaching Time: six periods Part I Pre-learning I.Teaching Aims

By the end of this lesson, students should be able to: A.Know the general knowledge about different kinds of Jewelry as well as diamond.B.Learn to use the communicative skill of “making an apology”.C.Master the use of article.D.Grasp the words or phrases related to diamond.II.Teaching Important and Difficult Points Cultural Background

A.Different kinds of jewels:(precious)stones: a rare and valuable kind of mineral.宝石

gem: a pearl of mineral that has been cut and polished for use as an

ornament.宝石,珠宝

ruby: a bright red precious stone.红宝石

sapphire: a kind of transparent precious stone of a bright blue color.蓝宝石

topaz: a transparent yellowish mineral.黄晶,黄玉

pearl: a hard round small silvery-white mass formed inside the shell of

shellfish.珍珠

B.Diamonds Diamond(金刚石,钻石)is a clear, very hard and valuable stone, used in jewelry

and in industry, for example, a diamond engagement ring.It is the

birthstone of April and anniversary gemstone for the 10th and 60th years

of marriage.Diamond was discovered in 500 B.C.in India.The name

“diamond” comes from the Greek word “adamas” which means unconquerable---

suggesting the eternity(永恒)of love.Since ancient Greece diamond has

been the traditional symbol of love.The ancients believed they were

hardened dew(露水)drops, splinters(碎片)from the stars or crystallized

lighting.A diamond, the hardest substance known to man, is a crystallized

carbon which has unique powers of light reflection.Because it is composed

of a single element, a diamond is the purest of all gemstones.Diamond is

a colorless stone.Some other occasional colors are: blue, yellow, amber

(琥珀色的), red, green, pink.C.World production of natural diamonds World natural diamond production for 2003 has been estimated at a total of

million carats(1.克拉: 宝石重量单位=200毫克 2.开: 黄金纯度单位, 纯金为24开)with a value

of US$ 9.4 billion.About 20% of this volume are gems, which will be

polished and set into diamond jewelry and 45% are near-gems, which would

have been graded as industrial 40 years ago but are now polished by the

vast low-cost Indian cutting industry.The balance is of industrial

quality.DeBeers is the largest diamond miner in the world.Its mines in

Botswana, South Africa, Namibia and Tanzania produced 41%(US$ 3.9

billion)by value or 31% by caratage(43.9 million carats)of the world’s

2003 production.The company’s marketing arm, the Diamond Trading

Company(DTC), sold 48% of world total production---a steep fall from the

recent past when(in 2000)the company’s market share was about 60% and

the 1970s and 1980s when it was 80%.In 2003, Canada’s Northwest

Territories mines produced 11.2 million carats, 7.5% of the world total by

weight, worth an estimated value of US$ 1024 billion, which is over 12% of

the world total by value, making Canada the third largest producer of

diamond in the world, behind Bostwana and Russia, surpassing South Africa

and Angola.A large production of the gem-quality diamond produced by both

the mines in the NWT is in the range of high color and quality, and in

sizes that are most in demand in the world’s leading consumer market, the

USA.Botswana was again the world’s number one diamond-producing country

in 2003 terms of value(estimated at US$ 2.48 billion)and only marginally

behind Australian in carats mined(30.4 million carats).South Africa

contributed an estimated 12.4 million carats to the world’s total

production, which represents about 11% by value(US$ 1.1 billion), 96% of

which comes from mines owned by DeBeers.Namibia now recovers about half

of its diamonds from mining the sea bed with the remainder being found on

its beaches, which have been swept for alluvial diamonds since 1908.The

stones are high in average value, though small in average size.Russia is

the world’s number two producer of diamonds.All the mines are situated in

the Western Yakuti(西伯利亚的雅库特地区), and are owned by the state company

Alrosa.In Russia, half of the rough output is currently sold for

polishing and half is exported.Part II Teaching Procedure Reading I I.Key Language Points 1.jewelry: n.“Jewel” is a countable noun, meaning a valuable stone, such as a diamond,while “jewelery” is an uncountable noun, meaning small things that you

译文:他父亲从事的工作与钻石有关,他的祖父也是这样。

2)To cut a diamond perfectly is an act like a samurai’s sword-thrust, or

a master archer’s centered arrow.要点:This sentence means: If a samurai intends to make a correct thrust at

his rival with his sword or a master archer wants to shot an arrow in the

center of the target without missing it, perfect skills are needed.Likewise, splitting a diamond perfectly also needs excellent skills.译文:要完美的切割钻石,就像武士准确地刺向自己的对手,高明的弓箭手每次都射中

靶心一样,需要高超的技艺。

3)When an important diamond is shaped a man may spend a week …will split

marry early and not paid more attention to what his family members said,sometimes jokingly, about his unwillingness to get married soon because he

was choosy.But when other people spoke of him with a sharp tone, the

family members had nothing to say.Why those people blamed him with such a

harmful, threatened tune was that they felt very angry when people like

Ephraim refused to get married and have children.译文:他总是不把结婚放在心上,对于家人开玩笑说是太挑剔了,他也不太在意。当别人生气地,有时恶意地,甚至用威胁的语气谈到此事时,他的家人无话可说。人们之所以这样说是因为像Ephraim

这样不想结婚养孩子的行为让他们感到生气。

Berquen发明了使用高速旋转的金刚石镶边的齿轮切割和打磨钻石的方法。

4)Every diamond has a natural line of cleavage, along which it may be

split by a sharp blow with a cutting edge.要点: 本句是“介词+关系代词”的用法。“介词+关系代词“结构中的介词可以是 in, on, about, from, for, with, to

at, of, without 等,关系代词只可用whom或 which, whose.不可用 that

。介词的选择受上下文的制约。在结合语意的基础上,可以从下面几个角度判断该用什么介词。

看先行词与哪一个介词是习惯“介 + 名 ” 搭配的。

【例句】This is the factory in which he works.(in the factory 在工)

这就是他工作的那个工厂。

看定语从句中的动词是与哪一个介词形成习惯“动 + 介” 搭配。

【例句】The car on which he spent 40,000 Yuan is made in Nanjing.(spend money

on sth.)The car for which he paid 40,000 Yuan is made in Nanjing.(pay money for

sth.)

他花4万块钱买到那辆车是产自南京。

既要看定语从句中的动词,又要看先行词有何习惯“动 + 介 + 名”搭配。

【例句】I don't know the student with whom Mary quarreled yesterday.(quarrel

with sb.)

我不认识昨天和玛丽争吵的那位学生。

Function and Structure The Art of Apology(道歉的艺术)

Most of us were taught that offering an apology, any apology, when we make

a mistake will take care of most offenses.But offering the right apology,particularly in the corporate world, is not as simple as saying, “I'm

sorry.”

Done right, an apology can enhance both reputations and relationships.Done wrong, an apology can compound the original mistake, sometimes to

disastrous consequences.Sometimes Chinese do not consider westerner’s apologies to be sincere

although the westerners involved were being sincere in the western way of

honestly and directly expressing feeling of regret.So then the question

becomes, what do the Chinese on the receiving end of the apology consider

to be sincere? The conclusion is that for an apology to be considered

sincere, it must follow a proper form.Words of regret are not always

sufficient.The person apologizing must express a higher degree of respect

to the offended party to restore the balance in the relationship.Westerners sometimes use a cursory(草率的)apology to move past the

troublesome event and on to the next thing.This is offensive to a Chinese

who is paying attention to the form and not just the words of the apology.The westerner thinks he has done enough by saying “ I am sorry” but to the

Chinese these words are empty unless accompanied by proper communication

of respect and humility(谦恭).Generally, American apologies have one of the

following three elements, in addition to “I am sorry”:

1)an excuse---I was looking at an old map.2)an offer of repair---I’ll compensate the victims.3)a promise about future actions---It will never happen again.Chinese tend to interpret the offer of an excuse as a sign of insincerity.An excuse doesn’t improve an apology as it does for Americans;it weakens

it.So how do you build a good apology? Apologies involve three elements:

Acknowledgment of a fault or an offense, regret for it, and responsibility

for the offense.You can put them all together, but a sincere, effective

apology need not necessarily express all three;whether it should depends

on the circumstances.Here are some tips for making effective professional

apologies.1.Find words that are clear and accurate—not provocative.A good apology

should make the person wronged think, “Yes, she understands.” Often what

the offended person wants is accountability and vigilance;he wants to

know that it won't happen again.2.Don't apologize for the wrong thing.People and institutions tend to

apologize for what they find forgivable.If there is no clear relationship

between what the offender is apologizing for and what the offended

experienced as the original wrong, the apology actually

exacerbates(使„加重/恶化)the problem.At best, the offender will seem blind to

the problem;at worst, he will be perceived as intentionally distorting

it.3.Consider the angle of approach.Decide whether it will be easier for

you to apologize position to position or person to person.If you are

angry with the person you've got to apologize to, it may be easier to

frame the apology in terms of your respective jobs or ranks.Example: “We both work for a good company, and, as your colleague, I

should try harder to see past our individual differences.I'm sorry I

spoke harshly.”

Such an apology is likely to resonate favorably with both parties, even

when anger between them remains.In other circumstances, a person-to-person apology is easier to offer.For

someone who equates an apology with loss of stature, for instance, the

person-to-person apology can appear to be a magnanimous act that does not

diminish her.Example: “I can't agree with the stance you are taking, but

I like you and want us to work well together.I'm sorry I spoke harshly.”

Choose the approach that is easier for you to do well.That will save you

from making an apology that is so grudging that it fails.4.“I want to apologize” is not an apology.It's no more an apology than

“I want to lose weight” is a loss of weight.Do the work.Deliver a clear,direct apology;don't hide behind vagueness, circumlocution, or clichés.You may not be able to control whether your apology is accepted, but you

can control its quality.So make every effort to control what you can.This will increase your chances of feeling good about what you have done

with your apology—instead of feeling bad about having to do it.Practical Reading 产品目录Catalogue(cat)的核心内容一般包括产品名称、编号、规格、型号、品质、参考零售价(RRP= Recommended Retail
