Certainly I don't teach because teaching is easy for me.Teaching is the most difficult of the various ways I have attempted to earn my living: mechanic, carpenter, writer.For me, teaching is a red-eye, sweaty-palm, sinking-stomach profession.Red-eye, because I never feel ready to teach no matter how late I stay up preparing.Sweaty-palm, because I'm always nervous before I enter the classroom, sure that I will be found out for the fool that I am.Sinking-stomach, because I leave the classroom an hour later convinced that I was even more boring than usual.当然,我之所以教书并不是因为我觉得教书轻松。我做过各种各样的工作借以谋生:机修工、木工、作家,教书可是其中最难的一行。对我来说,教书是个会令人熬红眼睛、掌心出汗、精神沮丧的职业。说熬红眼睛,这是因为我晚上不管备课到多晚,总觉得准备得还不充分。说掌心出汗,是因为我跨进教室之前总是非常紧张,自信学生一定会发觉我其实是个傻瓜笨蛋。说精神沮丧,这是因为我1小时后走出教室时,确信这堂课上得比平常还要平淡无味。
你能想像一个身体严重残疾的妇女独自经营一个网站并且像一个专业的体育记者一样详细报道洛杉矶道奇队吗?如果我没有亲眼见到她蜷曲在轮椅里,用固定在头上的一根棍子敲击字键打出她的评论,我是绝不会相信的。我长途驱车希望揭露一个精心策划的骗局,但是,看着她在黑暗的棚屋里添写她的报道,我知道我发现了一个真正的赢家。她对棒球的热情和她对球员的信赖使我回到了积极的态度。Could you imagine a woman with a severe physical handicap running a website on her own and covering the Los Angles Dodgers as extensively as a professional sportswriter? I would never believe it if I had not seen her with my own eyes, curled up in a wheelchair, typing her comments by hitting the key with a pointer fastened to her head.I had driven a long way in hopes of uncovering an elaborate hoax, but watching her strain in the gloom of her shanty to add to her story, I knew I had found a true winner.Her enthusiasm for the game and her trust in the athletes brought me back to a positive again

第三篇:大学英语推荐
亲们,高考英语成绩有点拉分有木有?开学英语有个入学等级考试,有点担心有木有?不小心被分到一级倍受打击有木有?
英语,从进入大学之后,几乎变成了自学。我们学校不似有些学校,在大一上半学期的冬天就能考四级,而是2,3级的在大一下夏天才有第一次机会,而1级的同学只有等到大二上学期才能有机会。你一定要坚信,在大学的英语课堂上学到的东西很少,而仅仅保持你高考的英语水平都得你在课外付出很多努力。
去年我定了21世纪英语周报,觉得还不错,今年我果断做了报纸的代理。
报纸每周一期,彩印加黑白印,不仅有实事,有娱乐资讯,有四六级的真题和模拟预测题。同时订报纸附赠英语专区教育卡,四六级词典。
为英语……奋斗吧,孩纸们!

08/09学年教学与管理安排
按照外语学院大学英语教研室期中教学、教务会议精神,和近期各学院及师生对教学反映。我们对大学英语08/09学年教学与管理作如下安排:
1、06级“英语视听说”教材使用《新世纪大学英语视听说》(上海外语教育出版社)第3、4册。上课地点:各语言实验室。
2、在07级“综合英语”和“口语”课程中增加授课内容:“翻译和写作”;翻译教材使用毛荣贵教授编写的《新世纪大学英汉翻译教程》(上海交通大学出版社)。每周课型设计:“综合英语”2节+“口语+翻译和写作”2节。
3、08年级普通本科(除音乐、体育、美术类本科外)教学环节细述如下:
1)、普通本科继续实施网络教学。对新生入学时进行分班教学,分A、B、C三种类型。分班原则:浙江省考生按照高考分数分班,外省新生按照A班占1/4,B班占1/2,C班占1/4的比例,将学生划入各模块教学班。所用教材与07级相同。不过教学计划应重新编写,选择合适的章节授课。期末统一出卷。
2)、在“口语”课中增加与专业和时事相关的口语练习内容,任课教师协作编写口语练习教材,教学过程应体现地方性综合大学的特点。同时落实课内“快速阅读”练习。
3)、音乐、体育、美术类本科学生按照传统行政班级教学,每周4节课。教材使用上海外语教育出版社全新版大学英语预备级(底起点+高起点)和综合教程第一、二册全套(综合英语、阅读、视听说、快速阅读)。期末统一出卷。
4)、08专生本的班级按照教学行政班级,不参加网络模块教学班。教材使用大学英语全新版第3、4册的“综合英语”、“阅读”、“视听说”、“快速阅读”。每周4节课。时间1学年,期末单独出卷。
5)08学前专科、08体育高职按照教学行政班级教学教材使用大学英语全新版预备级(底起点+高起点)“综合英语”、“阅读”、“视听说”、“快速阅读”。每周4节课。时间1学年,期末单独出卷。
4、认真总结一年来网络教学改革,努力撰写教学科研论文。教研室将对诸如论文版面费给以适度补贴。

学院路:1个(原1个)
茶山南校区:1个(原3个)
请教务处、现代教育技术中心与外语学院合作讨论有关事项。

I.Lesson 3
Background information
A.About the author
Richard MoranMore Crime and Less Punishment
Richard Moran is a criminologist and a leading expert on the insanity defense,capital punishment, and the history of the electric chair.The author of numerous
articles and reviews, Moran has also written articles for the Washington Post,Christian Science Monitor, New York Times, and Newsweek.The Executioner's Current
It is the story of how the electric chair developed out of an effort by one nineteenth-century
electric company to discredit the other.EdisonEdison, Thomas Alva(1847-1931)a US inventor who made over 1300 electrical inventions, including the , the record player, and equipment for the cinema.He is most famous for inventing the(=a glass container with a thin wire inside, which produces light by using electricity).When Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse(1846-1914, 美国发明家)were building the first power plants in the country, electric light was a bizarre new technology that few people understood and many people feared.Adding to the confusion were the two competitors' attempts to promote their own systems and discredit the other.When New York State began considering electrocution as a method of capital punishment, Edison recommended Westinghouse's alternating current for the unseemly task.Westinghouse, not wanting the negative stigma associated with his system, fought back, and a truly well intentioned government effort to find a more humane method of execution became a courtroom battle for commercial supremacy between two competing pioneers.Moran's account is broad, covering the electric power struggle between Edison and Westinghouse, the trial and execution of the first man to die in the electric chair, and the history of the capital punishment debate in the U.S.Edison's popularity as a cultural hero lends appeal to the entertaining drama of the power companies' competition, and the surprisingly colorful history of the electric chair makes for fascinating reading.
