Unit 1 Making a difference I. Speaking Task 1 Who are they? Directions: In the form are the names of some famous scientists. Guess who they are and what they are famous for. English names Chinese names What they’re famous for Archimedes Aristotle Nicholas Copernicus Marie Curie Charles Darwin Thomas Alva Edison Albert Einstein Ben Franklin Galilei Galileo Isaac Newton Other:_________ Task 2 Do you really want to turn into a genius? Directions: work in groups and discuss the following topic. Refer to other people’s opinions before you get down to work. Topic 最近科学家研究发现人类大脑中有"天才按钮"，只要刺激特定区域，常人也能有非凡的算术、艺术等能力。你愿意开启这个"按钮"吗？ Your choice Yes Reasons No Reasons Shelly: I would just like to be a normal person. As far as I know, some talented people are strange. They may be good at one thing but not talented in other areas. For example, Einstein had a gift for physics but found it hard to communicate with others. Eric: I'm willing to turn on such a "button" in my brain, if it really exists. I could become skilled at science, art or economics (经济). But I would make sure this "button" couldn't do me any harm before turning it on. Marie: If more people became geniuses, it may lead to an increase in high-tech crime (犯罪), such as stealing money through the Internet and creating harmful computer viruses. It is hard to imagine what the world would be like if all the criminals were very clever. Judy: In my opinion, such a "button" can do a lot of good. It may help us to develop our abilities so that we can make new discoveries. As a result, we could solve many problems and have a more comfortable life. If possible, I am eager to become a genius. Helen: Although it is convenient, I don't think its right to become cleverer in this way. If someone wants to be successful in math or art, he or she should work hard. I believe success requires hard work as well as natural gifts. Sam (teacher): Just imagine what it would be like to become a genius overnight. In my opinion, most of us would treasure such a chance to make our lives easy and interesting. However, at the same time, we should make good use of these abilities and contribute (贡献) to society and mankind. II. Pre-reading activities Directions: Here is a passage Stephen Hawking wrote about his disease and use the words in the form to complete the passage. My dreams at that time were rather (3) . Before my condition had been diagnosed（诊断）, I had been very (4) with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I dreamt that I was going to be put to death. I suddenly (5) that there were a lot of meaningful things I could do if I (6) longer. Another dream that I had several times, was that I would give up my life to (7) others. After all, if I were going to die anyway, it might as well do some good. But I didn't die. In fact, although there was a cloud (8) over my future, I found to my surprise, that I was enjoying life in the present more than before. I began to make progress with my research, and I got (9) to a girl called Jane Wilde, who I had met just about the time my condition was diagnosed. That engagement changed my life. It gave me something to live for. But it also (10) that I had to get a job if we were to get married. I therefore applied for a research fellowship（奖学金）at Cambridge. To my great surprise, I got a fellowship, and we got married a few months later. III. Understanding the text 1. According to the 1st paragraph, a promising graduate student __________.

On CNN, talk show host（节目主持人）Larry King was interviewing Stephen Hawking. "What, professor, (1) you the most?" King asked. "What do you think about the most?" Hawking immediately replied, " (2) ." It's a comfort to know that Hawking, one of the (3) men in the world, is puzzled by the opposite sex. But, that's not (4) , according to Satoshi Kanazawa. Bright people are (5) better than anyone else at making smart decisions in common things, he says. These (6) finding a mate, maintaining family relationships, raising children, finding the way home, and handling a variety of basic life needs. That's (7) there are several kinds of formal "intelligence", Kanazawa argues. Being smart one way does not (8) mean smart in another way. This view is (9) to be controversial（有争议的）among scientists who think about thinking. That is because it (10) with the common view that general intelligence is a single thing. In that view, it is not, as Kanazawa and others say, a set of (11) mental areas. Kanazawa says that some kinds of intelligence developed slowly over time. Many people have heard about (12) is called "emotional intelligence". Now, psychologists have discovered several (13) types of intelligence. These include the ability to learn a language, find a mate, recognize faces, and (14) oneself in a new environment. But, is there evidence to (15) the theory that intelligence comes in many (16) ? Actually, there is quite a lot of evidence, Kanazawa says. If there were only one type of intelligence, he (17) , then people with (18) IQs should be "smart" in every way. In one test, a psychologist took a group of subjects（受实验者）on a hike, walking into the forest. He then told them to find their way back. The high IQ people were no more likely to be able to find out (19) they were. In another experiment, a researcher asked people to find their way to a specific location in a computer maze（迷宫）.

More language input 限时 总字数 时 间 速 度 阅读 301w ____ m ____ wpm A letter to Edward, a columnist（报刊专栏作家） Dear Mr. Expert: I grew up in an unhappy and abusive home. I always promised myself that I’d get out as soon as possible. Now, at age 20,I have a good job and a nice house, and I’m really proud of the independence I’ve achieved. Here’s the problem: several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine — so much so that they make mine theirs. It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me. But now they seem to take it for granted that they can show up any time they like. They bring boyfriends over, talk on the phone and stay out forever. I enjoy having my friends here sometimes— it makes the place feel comfortable and warm— but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why can’t I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy (隐私)? Joan Edward’s reply to Joan Dear Joan: If your family didn’t pay attention to your needs when you were a child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now. And if you’ve gathered your friends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere(气氛),you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of conflict you grew up with— or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy. You need to understand that in true friendship it’s okay to put your own needs first from time to time. Be clear about the message you want to send. For example, “I really love your company but I also need some privacy. So please call before you come over.” 1. We can learn from the first letter that Joan Edward .

She does not understand true friendship. C. Her family experience stops her from doing so. D. She does not put her needs first. 4. The underlined word “conflict” in the second letter means . A. dependent life B. fierce fight C. bad manners D. painful feeling 5.The second letter suggests that Mr. Expert .
