Unit 1 Men and women’s prejudices Part I Read the following passage aloud. The very language we use to discuss men’s roles (i.e., deadbeat dads) shows a lack of appreciation for the majority of men who quietly yet proudly fulfill their family responsibilities. We almost never hear the term “working father,” and it is rare that calls for more workplace flexibility are considered to be for men as much as for women. Our society acts as if family obligations are not as important to fathers as they are to mothers —as if career satisfaction is what a man’s life is all about. Even more insulting is the recent media trend of regarding at-home wives as “status symbols” — like an expensive car — flaunted by the supposedly few men who can afford such a luxury. The implication is that men with at-home wives have it easier than those whose wives work outside the home because they have the “luxury” of a full-time housekeeper. In reality, however, the men who are the sole wage earners for their families suffer a lot of stresses. The loss of a job — or even the threat of that happening — is obviously much more difficult when that job is the sole source of income for a family. By the same token, sole wage earners have less flexibility when it comes to leaving unsatisfying careers because of the loss of income such a job change entails. In addition, many husbands work overtime or second jobs to make more money needed for their families. For these men, it is the family that the job supports that makes it all worthwhile. It is the belief that having a mother at home is important to the children, which makes so many men gladly take on the burden of being a sole wage earner. Part II. TOPIC Men and women’s prejudices Section One Each of the students will be asked one qu estion on the topic “Men and women’s prejudices and roles”. 1.What’s the division of labor like in your family? In my family, my father is responsible for the heavy and tired work like clean drain, garage, etc., the mother is responsible for some of the common household chores, such as cooking, washing clothes, cleaning, etc.I am responsible for helping my mother to do the housework, so dad is hard and tired. 1.Many people hold the view that men are different from women in many ways. What’s your opinion about it? Men and women are different. In the relationship, for example, men are more rational, while women are more emotional. And because the body structure is different, the responsibility of the men and women is different also, men generally responsible for the breadwinner, women generally responsible for providing a comfortable home. 1.How to be a good father?

University and Campus Life Chen: Now, let’s talk about our campus life. I like our library best. There are so many books there. I like reading books, and there are many old books which cannot be easily found in book shops. The building looks like a castle; it seems the building is very large and I always get lost in library. Wu: Woo, you are so brave. I don’t think it’s safe to stay in the library. I always hung around in the campus, especially in summer evening. The old building looks very grand in the dim light of sunset. And I can always meet some friends, it feels good to meet a friend by accident and have a free chat with him. Dong: Yeah, I always see you in the campus at night. I like hung around too. While, I like do sports better, such as playing badminton, swimming. I don’t like outdoor sports because I don’t think the air is healthy enough to breath. To be honest, as a hard working man, I spend most of the part-time studying in classrooms. I think it’s really convenient for us to study in our school. The students in the classroom are always very quiet, and you can focus on your books easily. That’s why I can get high marks in almost all the exams. Chen: Err…..I’m not a hard working man; I spend a lot of time reading novels. I don’t like this campus at all, so I always devote myself in the fantastic world created by the writers. On the other hand, I think reading book helps a lot in my study; it improves my imagination a lot. Wu: I spend much time playing guitar, and I’m the rhythm guitar of a rock band called P.A. Our style is death metal, and it’s always difficult to play well. Every member of the band admire the time we play together. It’s really exciting to play that kind of music. I’m really grateful that our school can provide places to run over our songs and hold concerts. Dong: I can imagine the girls screaming besides the stage. But I can hardly accept that kind of music. What a happy talk. I’m grate that all of us will get further education here. Nations and Traditions Chen: Let’s talk about some different countries. Which country do you like to go for your graduation tour? Wu: I would like to go to Japan. I think Japan is a very strange country. It’s both modern and traditional. There are many shopping centers and bars and there are many temples as well.

What do you think is the most serious challenge of living in a big city? With the development of economy, the speed of urbanization of our country is faster and faster. The area of cities is larger and larger. More and more people crowd into cities, resulting in larger and larger population of citcities. The abundance of consumer goods in big city indeed bring us much convenience. However, there are also many challenges and pressures living in a big city. Such as crowded transport, dirty air, noisy street and so on. Among these challenges, I believe, the most serious one is the tense pace of life. To get enough consumer goods and live a happy life, We have to work every day to make money. We get up early in the morning and go to work in a hurry even no time to have breakfast. After a day,s busy work, we go home at night and go to sleep. We spend half of our time to work even forget to stop to enjoy our life. Sometimes I think that we are so stupid to devote ourselves to work and forget the purpose we work for. But most of time, we have to do so. So that is the reason for my view. Say something about the impact of horror films on young children. When it comes to horror films, opinions vary from person to person. It is the same to young children. I believe horror films have both positive and negative impact on young children, the point depend on the attitudes of children on horror films. Horror films indeed excite us greatly compared with other films. For children like horror films, watching horror films is an interesting adventure. Kids who always watch horror films would have more curiosity on the world and life. This results that children watching horror films have the spirit of exploration and innovation. However, for those timid and do not like horror films, watching horror films may make them have nightmares. What is worse, it may lead to psychological illness and make them more timid, resulting them afraid of trying unfamiliar things. So it is concluded that if children like horror films, they are admitted to watch them, if they do not like, do not force them to watch. What factors influence you most in your choice of a job? With the increasing of population of our country and the diversification of economy, it is becoming more and more difficult for our young to find a satisfactory job. Too many factors affect us to
