12、s novel Catch-22 published in 1961. In the book, “Catch-22” is a military rule, the self-contradictory circular logic that, for example, prevents anyone from avoiding combat missions. It described a situation where, in WWII, you could be excluded from combat if you were crazy. However, the very proc
13、ess of wanting to leave combat proved that you were sane, therefore you had to keep fighting.,Notes,Notes,Now, the term is often used to refer to a paradoxical situation in which an individual cannot avoid a problem because of contradictory constraints or rules. Often these situations are such that

What are the benefits of spending more time outside?,Script1,Light up Your Life: How the Weather Affects Our Moods For the past three years, Ive
19、 been living in Southern Oregon, where the summers are very hot, sunny and dry, while the winters bring long spells of grey skies and drizzly rain. Between November and March it feels like it rains all the time, or at least stays pretty dark. Luckily, the past few days have brought some bright, sunn
20、y days, and thats been brightening my mood, too. I always wondered why people especially weather forecasters always had to equate certain weather with being “miserable” or “dreary”. I thought it was pretty much giving our power away to let something as random as the weather affect our moods.,Script2
21、,But lately Ive been thinking more and more about the scientific validity of that. After a bit of digging, I got confirmation of the fact that light (and, by extension, weather) does indeed impact the way we feel. Its laid out pretty clearly in a little informational e-book called Brighten Your Life
22、. In the book, Dr. Kripke writes, “Think about the dark dungeons of despair, the heart of darkness, the gloominess of a funeral mood. Sadness rules where it is dark,” He goes on to say, “Think about a person who has seen the Light. Think about brilliance. Think how we describe the great joy of love
23、by singing, You are My Sunshine. We know that light makes us happier.”,Script3,These days, we spend more and more time indoors, and Dr. Kripke blames modern urbanization. He points out that when he was a little boy, they played outside often, and walked to school even in the winter. After all, they
24、didnt have all the video games and electronic toys, and there were only a few channels on TV. But we dont need to blame technology. In fact, technology provides an answer in Kripkes book: bright light, which is used to treat depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD).,Script4,So if not technol
25、ogy, what should we blame? Laziness, perhaps, or simply routine habits. But its really a catch 22. We dont feel like going outside, but we feel worse by staying in. I know that I find my head clears and my energy rises when I go outside, even if it is raining. So certainly our kids can benefit from
26、fresh air too, not to mention the Vitamin D we get from the sun. Thats why Im making it a personal goal this year to spend more time outside, and to take my family with me, regardless of how much my husband and I feel we need to be tied to our computers, working. After all, if youre going to light u
27、p your life, you might as well do it the natural way. Indoor lights might be good, but the biggest light of all the sun is even better.,Speaking Practice,Speaking Practice,1. Give an oral presentation on the summary of the listening passage.,For your reference,The key points: - my experience and con

29、 oral presentation. 3. Work in pairs and take turns to ask and give answers about the following topics:,a. Do you agree that the weather affects our moods? Have you ever had such an experience? b. Can you cite some examples from some literary works regarding the correlation between the weather and p

When combined with other systems in order to contr
35、ol the building climate, the whole system may be an HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) system.,Background Notes1,Central heating differs from local heating in that the heat generation occurs in one place, such as a furnace room in a house or a mechanical room in a large building (thoug
36、h not necessarily at the “central” geometric point). The most common method of heat generation involves the combustion of fossil fuel in a furnace or boiler.,Background Notes1,The resultant heat then gets distributed: typically by: forced-air through ductwork, water circulating through pipes, or by
37、steam fed through pipes. Increasingly, buildings utilize solar-powered heat sources, in which case the distribution system normally uses water circulation.,Dialogue-Text1,A Winter to Remember,According to the weathermen last winter was one of the worst in living memory. We live in the depths of the
38、country, and my whole family agree that it was certainly a winter we shall never forget. Snow began to fall at round about the beginning of the New Year and continued on and off for approximately ten days.,At first we were all thrilled to see it. It fell silently and relentlessly in large soft flake
39、s until every ugly patch and corner of our rather rambling garden was smoothed over and had become a spotless white canopy. The children soon spoilt its beauty by having snowball fights and leaving their footprints all over it. Hungry birds too, in search of scraps of food, made delicate impressions
40、 on its surface. It was now, when the garden was all churned up and of a dirty grey colour, that a severe frost set in, hardening the snow into ugly lumps of grimy concrete. For the next three months the whole countryside lay in a grip of iron.,Dialogue-Text2,Indoors it was pretty cold too. Our cent
41、ral heating system proved both inadequate and unco-operative: inadequate partly because it needed overhauling and partly because the poor state of the doors and most of the windows made a whistling stream of cold air come through; unco-operative because occasionally it simply went on strike.,Every d
42、ay the birds grew tamer, often waiting hopefully almost on our backdoor step. We fed them with bits of cheese, chopped up meat and any leftovers we had. We also put out bowls of water, which unfortunately within an hour had frozen solid.,Dialogue-Text3,Dialogue-Text4,To make matters worse there were
43、 tiny holes in the brickwork of many of the rooms. As a result the water pipes froze so that for several weeks our water supply had to be brought in buckets from a nearby farm. We tried to buy a number of oil-stoves to keep these rooms warm, but other people had thought of doing this too when we cal
44、led at the village shop the shopkeeper told us she had sold out and that although there were more on order they were unlikely to be delivered until the spring which, of course, was a great comfort.,Dialogue-Text5,Throughout January and February and much of March we sat about in our overcoats and war
45、med ourselves by tramping to and from the farm, lugging buckets of water. On one occasion the water actually froze before it reached the house, and our youngest son not the most intelligent of youth promptly took it all the way back to the farm.,Dialogue-Text6,However, one good thing did happen. One
46、 of the children dropped a container with a dozen eggs in it. I stooped down furiously to pick up what I thought would be the messy remains only to discover the eggs had come to no harm they were as solid as if they had been hard-boiled.,Dialogue-Text7,Late in March, it finally thawed. Water squirte
47、d from pipes in at least half a dozen places. Instead of carting buckets of water into the kitchen from the farm we now brought them in from different parts of the house. Eventually we found a plumber. The plumber undoubtedly saved us from drowning. I have been devoted to plumbers ever since. By Robert Best,approximately,approximately: ad.
