Today we shall take Unit 2: A Job Worth Doing. But first we have to find a job, that is, to hunt a job. "Job hunting" is the act of looking for employment. It is also known as job seeking. The immediate goal of job seeking is usually to obtain a job interview and ultimately a form of employment.The people in the pictures on page 11 are doing jobs of different types. What are you going to do in the future?Now go to page 12. Lets read about an unusual job. The man in the article is working as a traffic light or traffic signal. Do you think it strange? A traffic light or traffic signal is a signaling device positioned at a road intersection or pedestrian crossing to indicate when it is safe to drive, ride or walk, using a universal color code. Yes, this man is working as a signaling device, not for money but for helping people. Before you readPlease go over the word list for this module, paying attention to the pronunciation of the word, the relationship between its pronunciation and its spelling.While you readCut/ the sentences into thought groups, blacken the predicates, underline the useful expressions and darken the connectives.After you readCopy all the useful expressions into your Expression Book and make your own sentences with them.Expressions from: The Human Traffic Signalat 3，500 metres，the highest in the world, at high altitude, make difficult, in bad condition, in particular, be considered the most dangerous road in the world, on one side, rise steeply; on the other side, a sheer drop, in places, hundreds of metres deep, a lot of traffic, on average， come off the road, inside the vehicle, is lucky to survive. In theory, be used by traffic, go uphill, come downhill, in practice, respect the rules, thanks to, the death toll, a gentle46-year-old man, live in a village near the most dangerous part of the road，known locally as , have an unusual job, a human traffic signal, climb up to, within ones hand, red on one side and green on the other, stand on, direct the traffic, approach from opposite directions, pay for, give a tip, have just enough money to live on, pass by, takefor granted, work as , have a close encounter with death, drive a lorry load of, come off the road at a bend, fall three hundred metres down the mountain, in hospital for months, a few years later, be called out in the night, help pull out of a bus , have a profound effect on, be lucky to be alive, ones mission in life to help others, week in, week out, from dawn to dusk, take up ones place, on the bend Read to transfer informationThe Human Traffic SignalWhereWho and whatWhyAt 3，500 metres，La paz，in Bolivia，is the highest capital in the world. But thanks to one man，the death toll has fallen. Timoteo Apaza is a gentle46-year-old man who lives in a village near the most dangerous part of the roadTimoteo has an unusual job-he is a human traffic signal.So why does he do it? He realised that it was his mission in life to help others. And so every morning, week in, week out, from dawn to dusk, Timoteo takes up his place on the bend and directs the traffic.Many roads are in bad condition and accidents are frequent. One road in particular, which goes north from La Paz, is considered the most dangerous road in the world. Timoteo stands on the bend and directs the traffic. 第4課時(shí)Learning to read in English1. Pay attention when you read and read as if it really matters. PAY ATTENTIONPAY ATTENTION andPAY ATTENTION.2. Stop talking to yourself when you read. People talk to themselves in 2 ways, by:vocalizing, which is the actual moving of your lips as you read, and sub vocalizing, which is talking to yourself in your head as you silently read.3. Read in thought groups. Try to read in phrases of three or four words, especially in complete clauses and prepositional phrases. 4. Dont keep re-reading the same phrases. Poor readers habitually read and re-read the same phrase over and over again. 5. Vary your reading rate to suit the difficulty and type of writing of the text. Poor readers always read at the same slow rate. An efficient reader speeds up for easier material and slows down for the hard. Reading more about “Kinds of Jobs”What kinds of jobs do people do? Some that I have been interested in at various times. Artist I include artists in all media, including words, images, buildings, drama, dance and more. These people work with ideas and emotions as they are expressed in some kind of artifact, so let it include even the arts and crafts types who are usually sneered at by fine artists. I just dont have the vision to be much of an artist, although I have bursts of pretentiousness which make me want to be an artist of some kind. Whats annoying is that I will get an idea for a novel or a movie or a TV show but then it wont crystallize, and then I get bored with it. At the moment I am not responding very well to art. Something about abstraction is frustrating me, and it has a destructive effect on trying to invent imaginary worlds, events and characters. Ive never been much for visual arts, unless you count graphic arts.Designer A person who blends aesthetics with practical production: architectures, graphic artists and print designers, industrial designers and the like. Game designers, too, I guess. This is the sort of work I am probably most suited to, but I have found that because it needs some kind of practical impetus, it is difficult to come up with projects independently, at least for me. Also, I find that I have trouble "seeing" various design choices - finding the suitable one. One design job that used to really interest me, and which is really obscure, is typeface design. I got pretty interested in it as a teenager, but I just couldnt get into it full time. I think I was partly discouraged by my atrocious, left-handed penmanship. I am always in awe of skilled calligraphers. I used to spend hours and hours designing posters or just drawing words, but I could not paint them, so I would carefully construct the outlines and then fill them in.Technician A specialist in a technical field, usually related to the production or operation of some kind of specialized equipment. You get a lot of job titles that include "engineer" that are not engineers - those are technicians. Audio engineers, for example. It sounds fancier. I would make a great technician, because it requires fairly strict, but not absolute, conformance to rules of the domain. Equipment operation is readily "benchmarked" for efficiency, which my mechanical mind is pretty good at. However I have not acquired much in the way of technical knowledge in my life, since I fear the dangers of obsolescence. Information technology work is mostly a highfaluting kind of technician work, with a large base of theoretical knowledge. It lends itself to the bureaucratic mind, which is something that many people, myself included, find comforting. But it also lends itself to rigidness, which is not something I see as positive.Scientist The scariest calling - to extract the secrets of the universe, its function and its rules. It requires a kind of obsession which I do not have, and a love of nature, which I am generally half-hearted about, and a capability to invent, perform and document detailed experiments in order to discover properties of the test subject - and I hate experimentation. I figured this out right away in first year university. I think scientists are great and I like to learn about science (maybe not so much now as I used to), but this was a brief dream for me.Engineer Super-technician. Too nerve-wracking, because engineers make things that peoples lives depend on, like vehicles, buildings, electric grids, medical equipment and the like. While I would certainly derive pride from helping build a new and better orbital vehicle, thats pure fantasy. Engineering is all the worst parts of science and all the worst parts of design. I love what they make and, like scientists, I respect them immensely, but I do not have a brain for remembering rules and formulae. I would get people killed for sure.Analyst You know, like economists and financial analysts and accountants. I am sure there are analysts who do not work with money, but that seems to be the primary area. I never seriously considered anything in this realm, but I did think about it briefly once. I think that at least part of the skill set of an analyst is overlaps with that of other fields, since you have to be able to look at a system, understand it, and predict its behaviour in most technically-related work. But money and business systems are very abstract, almost virtual. Lately I am having a lot of trouble with anything abstract. Its all just turning into a haze of symbols.Clerk Yeah, no kidding, sometimes I miss just being the guy who tells you where it is on the shelf. Reliable, predictable, concrete, orderly, tactile, and comprehensible. A retail store is a nice static system. And I want to distinguish a clerk, who just facilitates a purchase, from a sales person, who attempts to encourage or invent the desire for a purchase. Clerks dont have stress and they dont make any money, usually not even enough to live on, unless they are at a fancier retailer like The Bay or Sears. There are all kinds of other jobs also called "clerk" but I have to admit I do not know anything about them. But they do have a nice, safe, routine tedium to comfort them when they feel like the world is turning upside down. Everybody needs some level of stability. Closing down by telling about your future jobId like to work asin the future.Actress or ActorAmbassador/diplomatAnimatorArchaeologist Architect ArtistAstronomerAstronautBabysitter Basket ball playerBiologistBusiness/Economy Chef/cook ComputersCosmetologistCounselor DancerDentistDoctor ElectricianEngineer Farmer Fashion DesignerFirefighter Hairdresser Horse rider, etc.Interior decorator Interpreter/translatorJournalist/WriterLawyer/LegalMassage therapist Mechanic MilitaryModel Movie director Musician NaturalistNurse Photographer PilotPolicePresidentPriest PsychiatristPsychologist ScientistSkateboarderSingerSoccer player Social workerSportsperson Stewardess Stylist SurgeonTeacherTourismUnusual Jobs Veterinarian 第5課時(shí)Additional MaterialsComplete the article with one word in each blank:La paz is the highest _1_ in the world.

One road in particular, which goes north from La Paz, is considered the most dangerous road in the world. 其中有一條路，從拉巴斯往北，被認(rèn)為是世界上最危險(xiǎn)的路。閱讀或朗讀時(shí)，considered后面有個(gè)停頓， the到句號(hào)是主語補(bǔ)語。帶有賓語補(bǔ)語的動(dòng)詞變成被動(dòng)語態(tài)后，原賓語變成了主語，賓語補(bǔ)語亦因而變成了主語補(bǔ)語。如：She was made angry? (她被惹得生氣了。) He was elected President.? (他被選為總統(tǒng)。) What is the baby called? (這個(gè)嬰兒叫什么?)2On one side the mountains rise steeply; on the other side there is a sheer drop, which in places is hundreds of metres deep. 一邊，群山陡峭，另一邊，懸崖直下，有 些地方深達(dá)幾百英尺。On one side 和on the other side是相關(guān)并列連詞，也是所謂“篇章銜接詞語”。篇章中表示語義聯(lián)系的語法和詞匯手段有五類,構(gòu)成不同類型的語義銜接。前者包括照應(yīng)(reference) 、替代(substitution) 、省略(ellipsis) 、連接(conjunction) 和詞匯銜接(lexical cohesion) 。后者則包括詞匯重述( reiteration) 、同義( synonymy) 、下義( hyponymy) 和搭配( collocation)等。2.

It such a good chance that we must not miss it. To such an degree was he excited that he couldnt sleep last night.3. Timoteo has an unusual job-he is a human traffic signal. 鐵穆特歐有一份不尋常的工作，他是人式形交通信號(hào)燈。a human traffic signal是名詞短語作表語，是所謂“暗喻”用法。Metaphor (暗喻）：It is like a simile, also makes a comparison between two unlike elements, but unlike a simile, this comparison is implied rather than stated. For example, the world is a stage. 英語修辭還有：Figures of speech (修辭) ，Simile (明喻），Analogy (類比）Personification (擬人） Hyperbole (夸張） Understatement (含蓄陳述）Euphemism (委婉）Metonymy (轉(zhuǎn)喻）Synecdoche (提喻）Antonomasia (換喻）Pun (雙關(guān)語）Syllepsis (一語雙敘）， Zeugma (軛式搭配）Irony (反語），Innuendo (暗諷），Sarcasm (諷刺）， Paradox (似非而是的雋語） Oxymoron (矛盾修飾），Antithesis (對照），Epigram (警句），Climax (漸進(jìn)），Anti-climax or bathos (突降）， Apostrophe (頓呼），Transferred Epithet (轉(zhuǎn)類形容詞），Alliteration (頭韻），Onomatopoeia (擬聲）。4. And so every morning, week in, week out, from dawn to dusk, Timoteo takes up his place on the bend and directs the traffic. 因此，每天早上，一周又一周，從早到晚，鐵穆特歐在拐角處站好位置，指揮交通。本句中的短語有：and so， every morning, week in, week out, from dawn to dusk, take up ones place， on the bend， direct the traffic。Answer the reading comprehension questions:1.
