Universities and colleges are schools that continue a person's education beyond high school. A university or college education helps men and women enjoy richer, more meaningful lives. It prepares many people for professional careers as doctors, engineers, lawyers, or teachers. It also gives a person a better appreciation of such fields as art, literature, history, human relations, and science. In doing so, a university or college education enables individuals to participate with greater understanding in community affairs.

Universities differ from colleges in that they are larger, have wider curricula, are involved in research activities, and grant graduate and professional as well as undergraduate degrees.

Louis thought the code was slow and the dashes took up too much space. Only one or two sentences fit on a page.

第一句是概括性的，其余的句子是有关该code的种种细节。 再比如A篇课文第八段：

Over the next three years, Louis worked to simplify the code. On a vacation at home, Louis, age 15, picked up a blunt awl. Aha! An idea came to him. He made the alphabet using only six dots. Different dots were raised for different letters. Later, he made a system for numbers and music.

It was called Mothering Sunday, and came in mid Lent. People in other nations have observed similar days. Mother's Day was first observed in 1908 and received national recognition on May 9, 1914.

Father's Day is a day on which the people of many countries express gratitude and appreciation for their fathers by giving them gifts or greeting cards. In the United States and Canada, Father's Day falls on the third Sunday in June.

e.g. The old man thanked me for helping him. I have to thank you for the present.

2) all you have done: = all that you have done. 本定语从句中作为宾语的关系代词that被省略了。如果先行词是all或由all修饰，定语从句只能用that引导，不能用which，whom或who。

Second Period

11.) …that always felt better when tended by you.

= …that always felt better when they were tended by you.

在此定语从句中，felt作连系动词，意思是―使我感到‖。关系代词that在定语从句中作主语，因此不能省略。在嵌入的时间状语从句when（they were）tended by you中省略了主语和助动词be。在英语中，如果状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致，且后面跟有助动词be，可以省略从句中相同的主语和后面的助动词be。 12.) There was nothing quite so humbling as……: 最为丢脸的事莫过于…… 英语中，句型―否定词+so+形容词/副词+as‖可以表示最高级，意思是―没有…比…更…‖。

There are none so blind as those who will not see.

13.) … and I often managed to get sent outside class for something. …

愿做某事)。

Step 2 Text A Run Like the Wind

1. Background Information (5 minutes)

Running has been around as long as humans have, but it did not become a popular activity for the masses until the 1970s. There are many different kinds of runners, from casual joggers to regular race runners to ultra marathoners who run 100 miles at a time. Each runner should have a specific training regimen tailored to the individual‘s goals and abilities.

A good schedule for a beginner is to run 20 minutes at a time, every other day. In the short term, there are techniques that can help a runner perform better. Mixing in higher speed workouts is one strategy, but this can lead to injury unless the individual builds up to them gradually.

The benefits of exercise are far reaching. Studies have demonstrated that regular aerobic exercise reduces the risk of death due to heart disease and stroke, aids in reducing weight, helps prevent diabetes mellitus, strengthens bones, and enhances immune function. The psychological benefits are also broad, and most studies suggest a positive relationship between physical fitness and mental achievement.
