1、 Oral englishUnit 1 memory桐Some people have very good memory and can easily learn quite long poems by heart. There are other people who can only remember things when they have repeated them again and again. 那So, there exists discrepancy among the people. 崢Do you know what factors may weaken our memo
2、ry? 谢In my point of view, a lack of sleeping may make a bad influence on our memory. In other words, if you cant guarantee a enough sleep, you cant learn anything quickly. 桐I know someone has a good memory. For instance, the famous English writer, Charles Dickens said that he could walk down any lon
3、g street in London and then tell you the name of every shop he had passed. Of course, many of the great men of the world have wonderful memories. 崢Yes, you are right. A good memory is also a help in learning a foreign language. You know, everybody learns his own language by remembering what he hears
4、 when he was a small child, and some children-like boys and girls who live abroad with their parents-seem to learn two languages as easily as one. 那Right! In school it is not so easy to learn a second language. But they trying to learn it well! So, whats the reason? 谢You know that the pupils have so
5、 little time for it, and they are very busy with other subjects as well. And I believe that if anyone has enough time to learn the foreign language, they all can do it well. 那whats more, I think developing an interest in the subject you learn can also improve our memory. And having breaks or rest ca
6、n also be a help. 桐Oh, right, a mans mind is rather like a camera, but it takes photos not only of what we see but also what we feel,hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photo with a camera, there is much to do before the photo is finished and is readyfor us to show to our friends. In the same
7、 way there is much work to be done before we can keep a picture forever in our minds. 崢I agree with you. Maybe when you are remembering something, firstly, you can create some images, in other words, it is a mental visualization, and then granting what you create to your mind. The third step is asso
8、ciating them together to help your remembering. Maybe this is my way to have a good memory in remembering things. 谢Ok, my way is that if you cant get something quickly, you can change your mode of thinking. Maybe you also can slow down your learning. 那So whats your idea in improving our memory. 桐You
9、 know, our brain has its own period. If you work for a long time and dont have a break, the cell in your brain will not work any longer. So I agree with you that having breaks and rest is a good way to improve our memory. Because a short break, or a little fresh air can stimulate our brains cell to
10、work again. Whats more, if you want to learn something well, you must have intensive practice or repeating periodically. 那So maybe everyone has a little difference in our memory, but the method we have make it not the same. 崢Memory is the diary we all carry about us. We keep things we have experienc
11、ed in this diary. 谢So learn more things now, taking the advantage of your young age and our good memory now. Pay attention to the method from now, maybe one day we can have the super capability to memorize everything easily. 那You are right!1. What factors may weaken ones memory?It is often reported
12、that long-term nutrition may affect the functioning of the brain, thus damaging both the long-term and short-term memory. Also harmful to ones memory is lack of water. Elderly people need plenty of water to guarantee their memory works. A third factor is lack of sleep. Without enough sleep, one may
13、feel tired and have difficulty concentrating, not to mention learning things by heart.2. Can you describe some possible advantages of having a poor memory?A poor memory may have some advantages.ith the passage of time, the sad memories will fade. Those with a short memory tend to recover faster than
14、 those with a tenacious memory. For the same reason, forgetful people may be more ready to forget their daily worries and forgives others for their offenses. With a less retentive mind, they may enjoy life more.3.What can you do to make sure all your relatives and friends are on the guest list for y
15、our birthday party?First of all, I would check my address book and tick the names of those I intend to invite.Then, to avoid possible omissions, I would ask some of my close relatives, friends and colleagues to look at my initial list of names. They might suggest one or two additions. In this way, I
16、 can reduce the chances of missing those I should invite.4. How do you ensure important phone numbers are always at your fingertips?I usually remember my close relatives and friends phone numbers through frequent use.But my memory cannot always be trusted. In this case, a mobile phone is extremely u
17、seful because it can store many phone numbers. But when the batteries run down, the mobile phone cant help either. So I also rely on my address book. To play safe, I prefer to have two address books. I take one with me and leave the other at home. Thus I can always find the number I need.unit 2xie：Y
18、esterday, I read a paper ,as it reports More than 1.9 million couples got divorced in China in 2006, an increase of 7 percent on the previous year.this is a society phenomenon in China. people can now get married or divorced much more easily, Getting divorced used to be seen as an embarrassing loss
19、of face and cause for anger and grief by almost all concerned. But nowadays its generally treated with tolerance and understanding. Why divorce rate is on the rise?zhao:I think it is not hard to see the social and economic reasons for it. In the past, marriage used to be confined by family backgroun
20、ds. some people could not find the spouses of their hearts because of their family origin. Such a marriage can not bring happiness.cu: but now more and more young people get divorce. because young people put a higher standard on marriage, They want to have more in common with their life-long compani
21、on. To them, marriage is the unity of body and soul. They associate love more with esteem an admiration than with passion. Some are too young to fall in love. When they are in passion, they marry each other. When the passion is gone, the marriage is over.na: As a result ,more families are broke. At
22、the same time, it bring an another issue is “single parent family”. Without a moms or dads affection, the kids may feel them inferior and isolated, that will leave a shadow at kids heart. that is the negative influence in single parent family.xie: Single-parent families in todays society have their
23、share of daily struggles and long-term disadvantages. The issues of expensive day care, shortage of quality time with children, balance of work and home duties, and economic struggle are among the seemingly endless problems these families must solve.zhao: As many single-parent households are female-
24、headed, their economic burden is much greater than that of a single-father family. This issue results from the fact that single women typically do not earn the same income as a single man; thus, there is a consequent economic struggle not experienced in the single-father household.Cu：Due to lacking
25、of partners support, indebted responsibility and duty, Single Parent ,no matter in life or in society, has to bear double pressures and efforts, even though single parent may successfully carry the heavy load to support the kids. In the circumstance of lacking of moms or dad affection, the kids miss
26、 the moms femininity and dads masculinity during the kids growth in psychology and personal character. A: In a two-earner family, one parent may be able to stay at home with the children. But in a single-parent family, the parent rarely has the option of staying home to care for children full-time.
27、Finding affordable, available childcare is likely to be a challenge. B: In order to avoid those negative influences, Single Parent will act double parent figures; on the other hand, the divorced parents will get in touch with the kids more often from time to time.A: But single parents are often work
28、ing parents because someone needs to earn money to buy food, clothing, and a place to live. So single parents dont have enough time with their kids. Living with one parent instead of two can bring out a lot of emotions. The kids might feel terribly lonely and sad.B: The effects of divorce on childre
29、n can be detrimental to their future relationships. Children sometimes feel betrayed by their parents, resulting in a mistrust of others. Sometimes, Some children blame themselves for the divorce, believing that they caused their parents divorce due to their bad behavior or not listening. Some child
30、ren just shut down after the divorce and find it very difficult to express their feelings. （2）what makes a successful marriage?xie: what makes a successful marriage? Most young poople believe that romantic love is the most important condition for marriage,however,quite a lot of older people maintain
31、 that a marriage based on romantic alone will not last long ,for a sense of responsibility is most essential to a successful marriage. what is your opinion?na: I agree with those who believe that love alone is not enough to have a successful marriage causeofsome of the circumstances that you will fa
32、ce with your spouse like saving money and raising your kids .etc cu: Im agree with you.because love in most case is romantic and the lover only see the bright side of his or her counterpart,but the marriage invovles more vulgar things. During the daily life, you not only discover his or her bright s
33、ide,you may also be reluctant to find sometimes he or she offensive to you. Therefore, mutual understanding is pretty important to maintain a good marriage. Without it, the couples will only complain each other when confronted with conflicts between them. As time goes by and the tention exists, more
34、 often than not, the marriage will eventually fall collapsed.zhao:Respect is the best thing, I think. Respect means that you will not cheat.Respect means you will not let the little things that bother people destroy a good marriage.Marriage is a partnership between two equal people. The man is not b
35、etter than the woman, and the woman is not better than the man. Both people have to treat each other like adults and show respect for each other.1. What subjects do you like best? What made you like it: your personal interests, the teacher, the practical applications of the course in future, etc?I l
36、ike physics best, though my classmates find it hard. A lot of factors led me to like this subject.As early as in high school, I was amazed at the laws scientists like Newton and Einstein discovered. What they found out changed the world.Luckily, my physics teacher at this university is excellent. He
37、 is knowledgeable and patient. Just because of him, I am willing to spend lots of time on this subject.Most importantly, what I have learned from the physics course will be of great help in landing a good job. Nowadays many companies think physics majors often have a solid academic foundation and ca
38、n easily adapt themselves to a wide variety of positions.2. Do you think it is necessary for some Chinese children to do a lot of difficult math problems for the Olympic Math Competition?Some parents believe that by doing a lot of difficult math problems, their children will have a solid foundation
39、in math. Some parents even believe that trying to solve math problems will promote the growth of childrens brains and help develop their logical reasoning ability and concentration, which will facilitate learning in other areas.On the other hand, many people even believe that it is unnecessary and u
40、nnatural for children to study difficult math problems. Some people even believe that strict math training harms childrens moral and physical development. Fierce competition may dampen the spirit of teamwork, which is so important in the contemporary world.3. What study habits seem to be happy among
41、 successful students?Many top students seem to have these good study habits:They tend to have a strong sense of time and organize their time well. They may draw up their study plan well in advance. While studying, they check whether they are working ahead of schedule or lagging behind it. They usual
42、ly work in a systematically way. Before class, they preview the text to get some idea about what the teacher is going to say and which part of the text is difficult.In class, they listen attentively, take notes of the main points of the lecture, and ask questions when they dont understand.After clas
43、s, they review what they have learned. By doing through the text and the notes, they can remember important information.4. How to prevent students cheating in examinations?First, the administrators must adopt severe measures to punish that disgraceful practice. In the case of serious offenders, it i
44、s not enough just to give them an F. They must repeat the whole year, or even be expelled from school.Second, it is more important for teachers to enforce the university rules strictly. When they see students cheating, they should not turn a blind eye to it.Unit 3This is going to be a great semester
45、!A: First period is math with Mr. Zhang. I dont know how am I going to stay awake? B: Mr. Zhang? My roommate said that hes interesting. A: Hes boring! He could put the entire basketball team to sleepduring the championship game! B: What about you, C. I heard you have chose his course this semester.C
46、: I dont like him too. You know, In Zhangs classes, he usually dominates the class. He lectures, puts outlines and language points on the blackboard, gives solutions to problems, and fills the students heads with information. The students only sit, listen and take notes silently at their desks. D: O
47、h, That is horrible. Have you ever had the class of Mrs. Lee. Shes smart. Students really learn a lot from her. C: I know her, she is perfect. What about you?B: Ive had her class before. She is on the contrary of Mr. Zhang. It is more student centered. In her classes, she tries to stimulate the stud
48、ents to learn on their own by asking provocative questions, by posing problems, and most important of ail, by being a participant too. Students in these classes are more actively involved in the thinking learning process. They ask questions and read up to search for the answers themselves and then d
49、iscuss in classes what they have found. D: But shes strict! You have to work hard in her class, or youll probably fail. The mark is so important in this semester!A: But I dont think we should put so much stress on marks. The ability is much more important. It can accompany us to the end of our lives. Eve
