Everybody wants to get wealth.In today’s material world,making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person’s success and capability. Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth. With money,they can buy nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood. With money they can own luxurious cars. Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.But is wealth the only road to happiness? Not really. There are many things in the world, which are beyond the means of money, such as friendship, love, health and knowledge. People are so preoccupied with struggling for money that they have no time or would not take the time to form or maintain friendship. What happiness can they feel living as lonely miserable creatures without love or friends in the world even if they accumulate tremendous wealth?In my opinion, people can’t do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will add to your own happiness. If you want money just for your own needs, you’ll never be satisfied or happy. In a word,you should have money spent for more people. Only then can money be the source of your happiness.Step 8 Homework4 students in a group, one acts Roderick, one Oliver, one servant and the fourth one acts Henry Adams, then listen to the tape, pay more attention to the difference between American English and British English in pronunciation, stress, tone.
4、维新思想推动下的变法运动虽然失败了。但这是中国近代真正意义上的一次思想解放潮流,为什么?展开:维新派提倡西学,兴民权,对封建专制制度和传统观念进行了冲击,促进了中国人民的觉醒,为资产阶级民主思想的传播奠定了基础,具有思想解放的启蒙作用。是一次救亡图存的爱国运动,也是一次发展资本主义的改革运动;他们提倡资产阶级新学,批判封建主义旧学,引导人们重新认识世界,他们痛感民族危机的严重,号召人们奋起救国,谋求国家的独立富强;给古老的中国社会注入的活力是不可低估的,站在历史长河的高度看,由传统农耕社会向近代工业社会转变是一股不可抗拒的历史潮流,尽管它在19世纪末的中国遭到了暂时挫折,但对清朝的封建专制统治却是一次巨大的强烈的冲击波,它留下的痕迹是永不磨灭的,是永远鼓舞与启迪后人的。
学生活动:认真阅读,积极思考。教师总结:这样一个人口大国,依靠外国是不能解决温饱问题的,更谈不上社会主义现代化。实行对外开放,发展对外经济关系,必须坚持独立自主、自力更生原则,并以此为自己发展的根本基点。但坚持坚持独立自主、自力更生,并不是闭关自守、盲目排外,而是在立足自身基础上实行对外开放,把二者结合起来。(三)课堂总结、点评这节课我们重点学习了我国对外开放方面的有关知识,知道了在经济全球化的国际大趋势下,社会主义现代化建设必须实行对外开放,积极参与国际经济竞争与合作。了解了我国对外开放的成就、格局、新形势下的基本政策和战略。这对于我们在正确地认识国际经济关系,增强社会主义优越感和民族自强意识,自觉投身现代化建设等将有重大指导作用。

7.我国人力资源开发利用面临四大挑战在全面建设小康社会进程中,我国人力资源开发与利用面临着以下四个方面严峻挑战。(1)劳动力供给高峰的到来加剧了劳动力供求总量矛盾。持续的经济增长和人口计划生育控制,使得我国人口再生产在不到30年的时间内完成了从“高出生率、低死亡率、高自然增长率”的类型到“低出生率、低死亡率、低自然增长率”类型的转变,人口在日增长率已经连续数年低于千分之十。然而,庞大的人口基数及其低速增长仍对中国未来经济增长和社会发展带来巨大的就业压力,大量预测表明,未来20年是中国人口数量增长和劳动力供给的高峰时期。20世纪90年代以来,中国劳动年龄人口比重(16—59岁年龄组)由1990—1996年期间的61%~62%上升到1999年的63.2%。这种趋势将会持续到2020年左右达到峰值,直到老龄化进程抵消了数量增长效应,劳动年龄人口的比重才会趋于下降。到2020年,中国劳动年龄人口将由2000年的8.61亿上升到10.04亿,平均每年新增劳动力715万人。
南极大地的水陆交接处,全是滑溜溜的冰层或者尖锐的冰棱。企鹅没有可以用来攀爬的前臂,也没有可以飞翔的翅膀,如何从水中上岸?纪录片《深蓝》展示,企鹅在将要上岸之时,要从海面潜入海中,沉潜到适当的深度,借用水的浮力,迅猛向上,飞出一道弧线,落于陆地之上。企鹅的沉潜是为了蓄势,看似笨拙,却富有成效。人生又何尝不是如此?沉潜绝非沉沦,而是勇敢、智慧、自强。如果我们在困难面前能沉下气来,不被“冰棱”吓倒,不被浮华迷惑,专心致志,自强不息,积聚力量,并抓住恰当的机会反弹向上,毫无疑问,我们就能成功登陆!反之,总是随波浮沉,或者怨天尤人,注定就会被命运的风浪所玩弄,直至精疲力竭。结合上述材料,运用《生活与哲学》知识对“价值观是人生的重要向导,有价值观的人生才是更美的人生”加以评析。7、有两名畜牧兽医专业毕业的大学生应聘到农村养猪场担任技术总监后,大力推广使用生态养猪法和中草药防疫技术,使养猪场步入了良性发展轨道。
(三)合作探究、精讲点拨。探究一:探究问题:如何看待排名一名高中生在谈到“排名的二重性”时说:“我们既不能盲目地张扬排名,也不能简单地否定排名。作为学生,如果用片面的观点对待排名,排在前面沾沾自喜、骄傲自满,排在后面灰心丧气、一蹶不振,就会停滞不前,甚至倒退;如果通过排名了解自己的学习实力以及同别人的差距,做到知彼知己,扬长避短,就会出现先进更先进、后进赶先进的生动局面。”问题:(1)在排名问题上,人们的看法往往各不相同,这是为什么?(2)为什么我们应看到排名的“二重性”?(3)联系生活中类似的事例,谈谈生活与哲学的关系。教师活动:指导学生阅读以上的材料,并思考所提问题。学生活动:阅读材料,分组讨论问题,发表自己的观点,分析材料中包含的哲学道理。教师点评:(1)在排名问题上,人们的看法不同,主要是因为人们的思维方法不同。

The topic of this part is “Discover the reasons for festivals and celebrations.The Listening & Speaking & Talking part aims at talking about the experiences and feelings or emotions about the festivals and celebrations. This section aims at detecting the reason why the people celebrate the festivals, the time, the places, the types and the way of celebrations. It also explains why some traditions in the old celebrations are disappearing, like the firecrackers in the big cities and some new things are appearing like the prosperity of business or commerce. 1. Students can talk about what festivals they know and the reasons and the way of celebrating them.2. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.3. Students can understand the past, the present situation of some festival around the world and why there are some changes about them. 4. Students can have the international awareness about the festivals.1. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.2.

The theme of this section is “Talk about festival activities and festival experiences”.Festival and holiday is a relaxing and interesting topic for students. This part talks about the topic from the daily life of students’. In the part A ---Listening and Speaking, there are three conversations among different speakers from three countries(Japan, Rio and China), where the speakers are participating in or going to participate in the festivals and celebrations. So listening for the relationship among them is a fundamental task. Actually, with the globalization and more international communication, it is normal for Chinese or foreigners to witness different festivals and celebrations in or out of China. In the Conversation 1, a foreign reporter is interviewing a Japanese young girl who just had participated in the ceremony of the Coming-of-Age Day on the street and asking her feeling about the ceremony and the afterwards activities. Conversation 2, Chinese girl Li Mei is witnessing the Rio Carnival for the first time, and her friend Carla gives her some advice on the costumes which enables her to match with the carnival to have a good time. Conversation 3, a Chinese guide is showing a group of foreign visitors around the Lantern Festival and introducing the customs of the festival to them. The three conversations have a strong vitality and insert the festival and cultural elements from different countries. So perceiving the festivals and cultures from different countries is the second task. At the same time, the scripts also insert the targeted grammar --- v-ing as attributive and predicative, which students can perceive and experience in a real context and make a road for the further study. That is the third task. In the Part B--- Listening and Talking, the theme is “Talk about festival experience”, which is the common topic in our daily conversations. During the conversation, Song Lin, a Chinese student, asked Canadian friend Max about how to spend Christmas. In the conversation, Song Lin talked about experience and the feelings during the Chinese Spring Festival, during which there are not only some enjoyable things but some unpleasant things. After the listening, perhaps students find there are some similarities between Christmas and the Chinese Spring Festival as there are some differences in the origins and celebrations. For example, people always visit friends and relatives, decorate their houses, have a big dinner together, chat and give presents to each other.
The topic of this part is “Write about your festival experience”.During the Listening and Speaking and Talking, students are just asked to say out their festival experiences such as the Spring Festival, Mid-autumn Day, but this part students will be asked to write down their own festival experiences. During the reading part, it introduces the Naadam Festival in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, which can give students a good example to imitate. Students not only learn the festival, but touch and feel the Inner Mongolian’s character, the spirit and cultural atmosphere, which can help students form the cultural awareness and learn to enjoy and value the diversity of Chinese culture.Concretely, the dairy tells the experience that the author spent the Naadam Festival in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region with his/her friend. The structure is clear. In the opening paragraph, it introduces the topic of the Naadam Festival and the whole feeling. Then it introduces the items of the festival like the ceremony, wrestling and horse racing. Finally, it summarizes this experience. Because this part is a travel journal, we must guide students pay more attention to these details: 1. use the first person. 2. use the past tense to tell the past thing and use the present or future tense to describe the scenery. 3. use the timeline to tell the development. 4. be careful for the author’s psychology, emotion and feeling, etc.1. Read quickly to get main idea; read carefully to get the detailed information about Naadam Festival.2. Learn the structure of the reading article and language.3. Write an article about a festival experience4. Learn to use the psychology, emotions and feeling in the writing.1. Write an article about a festival experience.2.
