Some students cheat on exam.2) What are the possible reasons for people to be dishonest? What should we do when so many peo

11、ple around lose moral standard?-Different people may have different reasons to be dishonest. For example: some businessmen value commercial profits more than anything else in the world. Some doctors lose professional moral standard because of the drive of interests. Some people are in pursuit of fam

12、e and wealth. However, we must have our own moral standard. We should insist on our moral standard in any situation so that we can have a clear conscience. Furthermore, it pays to be honest in the long run.ii. Teachers SummaryAt present many people around us are dishonest. They may accumulate a lot

13、of wealth, get a good mark in exam, or gain fame by deceiving the public. However, when they know some people are injured because of their behaviors, and some even die because of their faults, they may be uneasy, if they have conscience. Furthermore, the truth will be revealed sooner or later. No on

14、e can escape being punished. So we should not only have our own moral standard but also insist on it in any situation, as the nurses and the writers grandparents in the passage did.2. Questions on the Topic and the Passage1) Why did the writer mention his grandparents in the beginning of the passage

15、?He wanted to use his grandparents as an example to tell us that in life you are either honest or dishonest. There is no other possibility. You couldnt sit on the fence or be in the middle-of-the road.2) What are the three principles that constitute the “Integrity Triangle?”一(1) Stand firmly for you

16、r convictions when confronted with personal pressure. (2) Always give others credit that is rightfully theirs. (3) Be honest and open about who you really are.3) What do you think of the nurse in the passage?I appreciate her very much because she was conscientious and responsible.In order to insist

17、on her own principle, she dare challenge authority.4) Why did the nurse tell the surgeon that they couldnt close before they removed the twelfth sponge ?Because if they didnt remove the twelfth sponge, it may be left inside the patients body, endangering the patients life.5) Why did the surgeon say

18、to the nurse with a smile, Youll do just fine in this or any other hospital?一What the nurse did showed that she was a person of principle. When she knew that she was right, she would never concede. The society needs this kind of people. Therefore, the surgeon believed that no matter where she worked

19、, she would be a good nurse.6) Why did David Ogilvy send each of his newly appointed office heads a Russian nesting doll?He wanted to tell them that when they hire employees, they should not be afraid that their inferiors are more intelligent and capable than themselves. If they are envious and narr

20、ow-minded only hiring people weaker than themselves, the company would never develop into a first class company.7) Can you give some examples to show that in our life there are some people who rely on external factors in order to feel good about themselves?一Some people buy expensive and hard-covered

21、 books to decorate their house, but never touch them. Some people buy famous brand watches, clothes and cars to attract peoples attention and show off their wealth. They do this simply because they lack genuine core values, and they do little to enhance their inner value and personal growth.8) How d

22、o you understand the pun in the passage “Tough times never last but tough people do？ Can you give more examples of puns?一(1) Hard times will come to an end sooner or later, but strong people will never be defeated by difficulties.

27、的思想你就可以改变世界。3.

28、都可以把谎言说圆满。All lies are told with a straight face. It is truth that is said with a dismissive giggle. Truth fears no questions.谎言都会伪装在坦率的面容之下,而真理却可能是带着轻蔑的笑容说出来。但是 真理是不怕质疑的。Truth is beautiful, without doubt; but so are lies. 真理是美妙的,不容质疑的,谎言也样。Ralph Waldo EmersonIII. Text Structure AnalysisThis is a pi

29、ece of exposition. The writer begins the essay with an introduction, which tells us what integrity means. Then the writer puts forward the problem that integrity is in short supply today and getting scarcer. This naturally leads to the question of how to test whether one has the value of integrity o

30、r not. Three principles with examples or with explanations are presented one by one. Thus the essay leads to its conclusion about integrity. From this analysis it can be seen that the writer uses the writing technique called a general statement followed and supported by examples. Besides, the writer

31、 also uses different writing skills such as exemplification, figuration and quotation. All these techniques make the essay convincing and vivid.The passage can be roughly divided into 4 parts.Part One (Para. 1-2)Through the example of the writers grandparents, the writer tells us what integrity is:

32、it is an inner compass forjudging your behavior.Part Two (Para. 3)The writer feels worried about the present situation that integrity is in short supply and getting scarcer. This naturally leads to the question of how to test whether one has this value or not. Then the writer ushers in the term of I

33、ntegrity Triangle which consists of three principles.Part Three (Para. 4-13)This part is made up of ten paragraphs which discuss the three principles in details. Paragraph 4-8 deal with the first principle: Stand firmly for your convictions when confronted with personal pressure. The writer gives ex

34、ample to support the first principle. Paragraph 9-11 deal with the second principle: Always give others credit that is rightfully theirs. The writer also gives example to support the second principle. Paragraph 12-13 deals with the third principle: Be honest and open about who you really are. This t

35、ime an explanation and even a quotation are used to support the principle.Part Four (Para. 14)Part Four is the last paragraph. The conclusion paragraph tells us what the components of integrity are and what integrity means. And it encourages us that a life of principle, of not yielding to the tempti

36、ng attractions of an easy morality, will always win the day. The last sentence echoes the first paragraph by saying that this is what his grandfather taught him. Thus the writer makes the essay a unified one.IV. Structured WritingA Paragraph of a General Principle/a General Statement Supported by an

37、 ExampleThe writer of the passage argues for the “Integrity Triangle with three principles. Each principle is supported by an example. In other words, the writer first gives a statement or principle, and then supports it with an example. This kind of writing skill is very common in English articles.

38、 Actually, in Unit Three, we have already learned similar writing skill which is A Paragraph of a General Point Supported by Examples.Take paragraphs 9 to 11 for an example. In Paragraph 9, the writer puts forward the second principle: Always give others credit that is rightfully theirs. In Paragrap

39、hs 10 to 11, the writer supports this principle by a detailed example of what Ogilvy & Mather, a world famous advertising organization did. This writing skill makes the passage more persuasive.We can give more examples to make it easier for students to understand the passage and master this kind of

40、writing skill. In paragraph 4-8 we have a principle and a story from a nurse. In paragraphs 12-13 we have another principle supported by explanation of the principle and a quotation from a celebrity which is still convincing enough.(Turn to P. 240 and do Exercise 11. Now fill in the same kind of cha

41、rt for Paragraph 4-8, identifying a general principle and the examples to support it.)A drillPrinciple: Persistence is essential to success.Abraham Lincoln as an example: be bom into poverty/lose eight elections/suffer a nervous breakdown/not quit/be electedSample Writing: (reference)Persistence is

42、essential to success. Probably the greatest example of persistence is Abraham Lincoln. Born into poverty, Lincoln was faced with defeat throughout his life. He lost eight elections, twice failed in business and suffered a nervous breakdown. He could have quit many times. But he didnt and because he

43、didnt quit, he was elected and became one of the greatest presidents in the history of the United States.V.
