Part 2: Teaching Resources (第二部分:教学资源)I. Background readings Time (美国人的时间观)What is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it something we have no control over, like the weather? Is time the same all over the world? Thats an easy question, you say. Wherever you go, a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forth. Well, maybe. But in America, time is more than that. Americans see time as a valuable resource. Maybe thats why they are fond of the expression, Time is money. Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, they try to conserve and manage it. People in the U.S. often attend seminars or read books on time management. It seems they all want to organize their time better. Professionals carry around pocket planners-some in electronic form-to keep track of appointments and deadlines. People do all they can to squeeze more life out of their time. The early American hero Benjamin Franklin expressed this view best: Do you love life? Then do not waste time, for that is the stuff life is made of. To Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other peoples time. Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology, and maybe an explanation. People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay. Of course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on time. At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time. But they usually dont try that at work.II. Fun materials Holes and coversOnce San Diego was badly flooded. Some residents suggested removing manhole covers to speed up the draining of rain flooded streets. That sounded a good idea. However, it made matters worse because the underground system was flooded too. Several covers became lost in knee-deep water, and police were called in to help.“were picked up the lost covers all right.” One officer asked headquarters. “Now how do we find the holes?”Back came the order: “Thats easy.
