3)It is usually available in times of ….In the aftermath of the WenChuan earthquake, for example, there was a swell of unlimited love within the Chinese people for the victims.In no time, such love streamed with ever-greater energy into every corner of China, thus leaving the victims with more courage in the combat against the catastrophe.Such love was, if anything, an endless flow of warmth that not only excited every Chinese but shook the world as well.1)It is a dynamic and powerful energy that can spring from the bottom of every human heart and get the world through any of unusual misfortunes.2)It is based on an attitude of complete acceptance, which means you feel as happy and concerned with others as with yourself.3)It is usually available in times of adversity and typical of steep gain in potential energy.2.What kind of person is apt to cherish such love?
It is often remarked that love is born in times of suffering and misery but dead in periods of ease and comfort.So for those who have a great start in life or enjoy a wealth of love and care from their family, life always goes right along, leaving them with nothing to attend to with heart and soul.But for those who suffer one misfortune after another from childhood, life does not stand any chance to blossom without care and love from others, leaving them with much to feel indebted to.Clearly, it is natural for the second kind of person to cherish unlimited love and know what it matters to those in need because that is the case with their life.1)Those who are born with a wealth of love and care from their families, …?
2)Those who suffer a lot of misfortune from childhood, …? 3.What did the speaker’s brother give first priority to?
My brother does not sweat the life he could never have.Instead he focuses on what he can do—to love.For many, if not all of us these days, it is a constant struggle to get somewhere in life.There is just so much to learn, so much is changing every day, that I hardly have time to breathe, let alone love and care about the people around me.My brother though, always makes it his first priority.He never got the chance to go to a regular school or compete for a decent job;unfortunately, he was born with some brain damage making learning a challenge.He never had trouble learning how to love, though.And he knows how to teach others to love as well.New Horizon College English Book Ⅲ

It is because he often suffered blows from life that he cherished the true love from society and then knew what it meant to love and commit to the well-being of those in trouble.For people like him, therefore, there’s every reason to make love their first priority in life, especially when others are wanting in comfort.As far as we learn from the short passage, lack of oxygen during birth left the speaker’s brother with some brain damage.That permanent disability deprived him of the chance to go to a regular school.His life must have been a mixture of misfortune from life and practical love from people around.My next question is as follows:
1)His misfortune caused by his brain damage?
2)His desire for care from his family members and society around?
3)His love for those who have given him timely help as well as for people in need? 4.What would her brother do in face of great tragedies?
The September 11th terrorist attacks are normally ranked as a national tragedy to the United States.In the wake of the attacks, so great was their impact on Americans that the whole nation, for a long time, was too emotionally exhausted to reckon with the sheer terror as well as with the loss of so many beloved lives.In times of such widespread grief, however, her brother would 1)know well that others were in great need of timely comfort and care, because his life had been blessed with love and care from society;2)make it his first priority to devote his unconditional love to those in need;and 3)believe that boundless love would make a great difference to the way the victims of the disaster felt about their grief.As can be seen from the foregoing, those living in adversity know better the worth of love from others, and in return, they also have a clear idea about what to do when people around are in trouble.My next question is as follows: In the wake of 911, her brother would:
1)Know well from his own experience what others were in great need of, because …?
2)Make it his first priority to …?
3)Believe that boundless love would … ? 5.Look at the following pictures which share the same theme.What is it?

1)He that has no children knows not what love is.2)We never know the love of the parents until we become parents ourselves.3)Give a little love to a child, and you get a great deal back.4)From your parents you learn love and laughter and how to put one foot before the other.Part Three: Related Information 1.September 11th disaster:
It is the result of a series of coordinated suicide attacks by terrorists upon the United States.On the morning of September 11th, 2001, terrorists hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners.The hijackers intentionally crashed two of the airliners into the World Trade Center in New York City, resulting in the collapse of both buildings soon afterward and extensive damage to nearby buildings.The hijackers crashed a third airliner into the Pentagon.The fourth plane crashed into a field near Shanksville in rural Somerset County, Pennsylvania after passengers and New Horizon College English Book Ⅲ

members of the flight crew on the fourth aircraft attempted to retake control of their plane.Excluding the 19 hijackers, 2,974 people died as an immediate result of the attacks with another 24 missing and presumed dead.The overwhelming majority of casualties were civilians, including citizens from over 90 different countries.2.Why is calamity liable to give birth to love without limitations?
Beilby Porteus, Bishop of London, once remarked, ‘Calamity is the perfect glass wherein we truly see and know ourselves.’ So it is, because, in time of peace, most of us are too preoccupied with aspirations for fame and wealth to examine ourselves.As a gradual result, Americans born in the 1970s are often referred to as megeneration, or soulless slaves to consumerism who care little about bigger issues of politics, social justice or poverty.Bertran Rusell, a famous British philosopher, once concluded from his many years of observation in China that the Chinese nation was wanting in passion for humanity.For the sense of gratitude to come back into us, therefore, there must come a time when we have to reflect on what has made all of our well-being possible.So the best point of time is bound up with the outbreak of a calamity, which can serve as a mirror for us to realize that what we are often concerned with means nothing without the existence of the nation as a whole.That is why there was an outpouring of patriotism among Americans in the wake of the September 11th terrorist attacks, whereas there was an explosion of boundless love within the Chinese people in response to the rare earthquake in WenChuan.3.How to integrate such unlimited love into our daily life?
It is no easy job to work such love well into our daily routine for good, since, as is taken for granted, where there is love there is always expectation.But for the very virtue to last in our life, the first and foremost thing to do is never fail to set aside the time to introspect what social factors contribute to our well-being and comfort, thus building up our awareness of gratitude to our society.Just as Cicero once put it, a thankful heart is not only the great virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues as well.Also important is our clear identification of what we can do to add to our social unity, harmony and better-being, especially if we are in better positions to do so.Once the foregoing is achieved, what matters most to us next is how to put our duties into effect.If we can reconcile our action with our gratitude, the returns from that will be in greater measure.If we exercise kindness in our social contact, for example, we will reap more of smile from society.If we exert true concern for those around, we are sure to harvest more help from them.And if we render unlimited love to the world, we are more than likely to find such love knows no bounds.Part Four: Text Understanding

(Problem)The population explosion of urban areas has given rise to a lot of problems such as sprawling slums and regular failures of electric and water services because of the excessive demands.In addition, the urban areas suffer extensive unemployment and strained educational and recreational facilities.The population explosion of urban areas must be corrected.(Response)One of the ways to correct the population explosion of urban areas is to improve the facilities in rural areas.Adequate parking facilities, attractive and well-stocked department and food stores, drug stores, gift shops and bakeries should be built in rural areas to convince more people living there to stay where they are.The government should offer lower tax rates and modest homes on convenient terms to those who choose to live in the rural areas.(Evaluation)If rural areas were built to have all the facilities that urban areas do, the population explosion in urban areas can be corrected.Writing Practice Directions: Write a composition of no less than 120 words with a problem-response-evaluation structure on the following topic.You can follow the detailed outline given as follows.Topic: The fight against air pollution Problem: The region has been seriously polluted by harmful smog.Response: close down/modernize some factories

The fight against air pollution
(Problem)The region has been seriously polluted by harmful smog, which proves to be the cause of many illnesses and for the climbing death rate.As a result, people have started to move out of the area.(Response)In response to the problem, the local government has decided to fight against air pollution.It has closed down several factories, which were considered to be the major cause of the pollution.Many power plants have been modernized to give off less pollution and also moved further away from people’s homes so as to decrease the damage.At the same time, the local government has decided to plant trees in and around the region because trees can absorb some of the pollution.(Evaluation)People welcome all the measures taken by the government.Consequently, more and more people have begun to move back to the region to take part in this battle for a clean environment.Writing Assignment
Directions: Write a composition of no less than 120 words with a problem-response-evaluation structure on the following topic.Topic:

Love Without Bounds
At 2:28 p.m., May 12th, 2008, a severe earthquake with a magnitude of 8.0 on the Richter scale struck Wenchuan, an area of Sichuan, leaving the place with ruins everywhere.As an immediate result of that, around 69,000 people died, with another 18,000 missing, over 370,000 injured, and 5,000,000 survivors homeless.Accompanying the arrival of disaster was a sheer paralysis of electricity, water works, telecommunications and transportation.Usually accessible to tourism for its scenic beauty, the area was now completely secluded from the outside world.(Problem)
Faced with such a devastating disaster, the Chinese Communists held China together with their role models, and called upon the whole dropped relief supplies for the victims.Besides, medical workers from different parts of the country and the world flocked to the epicenter in good time to offer first aid to the injured and the sick.Unable to go there in person, most of us were in charge of rear services, for which some made tents, medicine, food, etc.day and night, and every one of us vied with one another to donate money and blood.In fact, effecting the rescue of the victims who remain as firm and appreciate our efforts as much as those in Sichuan do has refined our love more than anything else ever could have.(Response)
With the disaster relief drive being in full swing and with the live reports on it dominating the headlines of all mass media, we were reminded that sweeping across the entire China was an ever-greater flow of love that could get our nation through whatever life could present.There would be no bounds to what such love could accomplish.(Evaluation)

VII.Text Analysis: Main Idea and Devices for Developing It Central topic:
Time-conscious Americans(“Time is one of the two elements that Americans save carefully, the other being labor” Para.1)Structure Analysis: Americans save time carefully.(Para.1)Americans’ attitude towards time and how they try to save time in daily life and in business(Paras.2-7)Time is a precious source.(Para.2)Americans save time in their daily life.(Para.3)Americans save time in doing business.(Para.4)Americans produce labor-saving devices in order to save time.(Paras.5-7)It is taken as a sign of skillfulness or being competent to solve a problem or fulfill a job successfully with speed in the US.(Para.8)Stucture of the Text: VI.Reading Sills: 1.Deduction organization General statement: “Time is one of the two elements that Americans save carefully, the other being labor.”
Specific statements: 1)(Para.3)In the US everyone seems to be in a rush in daily life, e.g.shopping, eating out, walking, driving a car, etc.2)(Para.4)Americans start talking business directly without opening exchanges.3)(Paras.5-7)Americans work hard at the task of saving time by producing a steady flow of labor-saving devices, e.g.faxes, phone calls, emails, etc.Conclusion :(Para.8)It is taken as a sign of skillfulness or being competent to solve a problem or fulfill a job with speed in the US.2.Exemplification(Illustration)Typical sentences: 1)(Para.3)“City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going…Racing through daytime meals is part of life …You also find drivers will be abrupt and people will push past you.”2)(Para.4)“Many new arrivals to the States will miss the opening exchanges of a business call, for example.They will miss the ritual interaction… They may miss leisurely business chats…” 3.Comparison & contrast In order to make it clear that Americans are time-conscious, the text compares the different conventions of other countries(“new arrivals”)with the Americans’ attitude towards time.1)(Para.4)“Many new arrivals…will miss the ritual interaction that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee that may be a convention in their own country… Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings…”
2)(Para.6)“In some countries no major business is conducted without eye contact, requiring a face-to-face conversation.In America, too, a final agreement will be normally signed in person.However, people are meeting increasingly on television screens, …”3)(Para.8)“Some new arrivals will come from cultures where it is considered impolite to work too quickly… In the US, however, it is taken as a sign of skillfulness or being competent to solve a problem or fulfill a job successfully, with speed.” 4.Cause & effect Typical sentences: 1)(Para.3)“…Don’t take it personally.This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain appropriate point.”
2)(Para.4)“…Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly.Time is, therefore, always ticking in our inner ear.”
3)(Para.5)“Consequently, we work hard at the task of saving time…We, therefore, save most personal visiting for after-work hours or for social weekend gatherings.”
4)(Para.7)“… This is due partly to the fact that the telephone service is superb here, whereas the postal service is less efficient.”
5)(Para.8)“Unless a certain amount of time is allowed to elapse, it seems in their eyes as if the task being considered were insignificant, not worthy of proper respect.Assignments are, consequently, felt to be given added weight by the passage of time.”
