Background Information1. AIDS: AIDS, acquired immune deficiency syndrome, is a disease which destroys the natural method the body uses to protect against other diseases. It is a disease caused by the HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), but AIDS is different from HIV in that the former usually causes death while HIV may lead to AIDS. HIV is spread in three ways: (1) contact with infected blood; (2) sex; (3) mother-to-child. AIDS usually develops in four stages: (1) In the first stage, there is only infection by HIV and antibody (抗体) production. (2) In the second stage, the lymph nodes (淋巴结)enlarge (肿大)(3) In the third stage, an infected person may begin to have such signs (症状)as tiredness, fever, and night sweats. (4) In the last stage, AIDS is diagnosed when a person develops certain uncommon, life-threatening illnesses, for example Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia(卡氏 肺囊虫肺炎)2. Latino (pl. Latinos):Latino (pl. Latinos) is the name given to Hispanic American citizens in the United States who share the Spanish language in common but may be from different races or religions and different Spanish speaking countries. Latinos are the fastest growing group in the U.S. and expected to more than double in size by 2020.3. HIV: HIV is the human immunodeficiency virus. This is the virus that spreads through contact with infected blood, infected sexual partners or within the womb of an infected pregnant mother. After infecting a person, HIV can remain hidden in the body for long and different periods of time until it becomes active and develops into AIDS for which no known cure exists. The virus spreads very fast once contact has been made with an infected source.4. The Federal Government: The federal government in the United States is a national republic whose members are elected to hold office fbr a limited period of time by citizens over 18 years of age. This republic has an elected president who is head of the nation as well as head of the federal or national government.5. A State Government: A state government is the political structure that includes an area of land, citizens, and an elected governing body with the right to control and change all powers within the state that are not given by constitution to the federal government. Fifty state governments exist in the United States.6. A beauty Shop: A beauty shop is a business place where women go "to have their hair done,“ washed, curled, colored, etc., or their fingernails or skin treated. The shop sells the thought' of beauty. A client should feel/look more beautiful after a visit to the beauty shop. Women who use such shops often have weekly appointments.7. Some Terms:'Homosexual' adj. sexually attracted only to people of the same as oneself.'Gay' is a term often used to refer to homosexual men.'Lesbian' is a term often used to refer to homosexual women.'Coming out' refers to those people who are homosexual.'Outing' is the publicizing by others about a person's homosexuality, either to try and get them discriminated against in some way, or to gain status fbr homosexuals groups by showing that prominent people of good reputation are homosexual. 'Outing' can have severe effects on a person's life, ranging from verbal abuse to loss of job or accommodation, and even to being severely bashed or worse. It is important to be aware if people are "publicly out., The fact that we learn of someone's sexual preference, does not mean it is appropriate to tell others.'Homophobia' is the fear, revulsion, and hatred of homosexuals.III. Text Structure AnalysisFor this unit, particular attention should be focused on the problem-solution pattern. One structure analysis of Paragraphs 8 and 9 is presented in students' book. In these two paragraphs, the problem-solution pattern is to support a general statement: "Speaking to your community in a way they can hear". Then the writer goes on to tell us why we should speak to the community in a way they can hear. It is because there is a problem of a low literacy rate, which makes reading our AIDS literature impossible. To solve the problem, it is necessary to ask people who can draw well in the community to create low-literacy AIDS education publication. Another structure analysis is made in student's exercise for Paragraph 10, which is organized in exactly the same pattern.An analysis of the whole text structureThe passage can be roughly divided into three parts.Part One (Para. 1-2): This part tells us about the background and the present situation about the problem of AIDS.Part Two (Para. 3-13): It is the major part of the article, telling us the current battle against AIDS. In place of government inactivity in face of the rapid spreading of AIDS, a number of local organizations operate effective AIDS educational programs combating the growing number of AIDS cases. From their practice, they find a solution that education represents the only safe measure to guard against the virus since there is not a cure for AIDS.Part Three (Para. 14): It emphasizes the importance of the battle against AIDS and it concludes that the battle against AIDS is an undeclared war that everyone must sign up for in order for us to win.IV. Structure WritingA general statement supported by a problem-solution patternThe problem-solution is one of the most common patterns we have in writing. The basic structure of the pattern is situation-problem-solution-evaluation. There are some possible differences in the pattern but the basic parts are problems and solutions.We may pay some attention to the organizational words or phrases that are often used in this pattern. "The problem" or "the question" is often used to introduce a problem. 6tTo solve." and "the solution" are often used to introduce the solution while "the result" or “as a result" is often used for result, effect or evaluation.(Turn to P. 116 and do the Exercise XII)V.
