increased considerably.,At the beginning of 20th century a commonplace store had only a few dozen categories with one or two options for each category,whereas modern supermarkets have up to 50,000 to 60,000 items in thousands of categories.,But too many options wont necessarily make people happy and satisfied.Ironically,people usually feel the,opposite,less happier than when they had only limited choices.,Tips,Lead-in,Discuss and answer the following questions,1.Have you ever been troubled with making choices in your life,?,Tips,In modern times,people can easily get access and enjoy the luxury of abundant materials,which was impossible back in the early 20th century.But people may take things for granted and become spoiled in the sea of materials.People are overburdened,feel its too much to deal with so many choices,and consequently feel their life is empty.Life with little or no choice is unbearable,and suitable options do increase our quality of life.But that does not mean the more the better.,Lead-in,Discuss and answer the following questions,2.How do people feel about modern life full of options and materials,?,1.What do you know about Gap,？,2.How much do you know about

his philosophy of naturalness and non-action.,2,UNIT,Reading Skills,Presentation of the Skill,Reading Skill Practice,When enough is enough,Reading between the lines usually requires close,careful reading of the entire text,rather like detective work!But by using contextual clues,common sense,and our background knowledge,by connecting ideas and drawing conclusions,by forming and testing ideas about what the author is trying to say,we can usually“fill in the blanks”and discover the authors real meaning.,Reading between the lines,Reading between the lines means making inferences about the authors ideas from what is written and from what is not written.Writers dont always express all their thoughts directly,but they give you hints or clues that help you“read between the lines”.Using these clues to give you a deeper understanding of your reading is called“inferring”.,Reading between the lines,Tips of reading between the lines,1.You have to make use of contextual clues,common sense,and your background knowledge.,2.Connect ideas and draw conclusions from the reading passage.,Reading between the lines,3.Form and test what you have understood between the lines.,Example 1:,The next time youre deciding between rival options,one which is primary and the other one which is secondary,ask yourself this question:What would Xiang Yu do?(Para.1,Text A),Reading between the lines,Question,:,What inference can you make from the question,“What would Xiang Yu do?”,In the authors opinion,Xiang Yu was very,intelligent in making difficult choices.,Reading between the lines,Possible answer,:,Example 2:,General Xiang Yu was a rare exception to the norm,a veteran leader who was highly respected for his so many conquests and who achieved the summit of success.(Para.3,Text A),Reading between the lines,Question,:,What inferences can be made from the statement?,It was exactly due to using these seemingly abnormal battle strategies that Xiang Yu successfully defeated his enemy and won his,soldiers high respect.,Reading between the lines,Possible answer,:,Read Text B and use its contextual clues,your common sense,and your background knowledge to answer the questions between the paragraphs.Then compare your answers with a classmates to see if you understand the authors meaning the same way.,Reading between the lines,6,UNIT,Text Study,Text

jeans?(paras.I-4),3.How did the author probably feel about this purchasing experience?,4.What does the paragraph intend to tell us?(para.6),5.What message does the author want to send out?,6.What is indirectly said in these three paragraphs?(paras.11-13),7.What is the authors point of view implied in these paragraphs?,8.What inference can you draw from these two paragraphs?(paras.14-15),9.What does the author suggest?,Perhaps she took it for granted that it was not difficult for her to make a choice quickly and get what she wanted.,1.Why did the author respond to the salesperson in

inquired about the,style,material,design and color I preferred.,译文,:,“您想要紧身的，合身的，休闲的，宽松的，还是特大宽松的？”她试探地问道。“您想要石磨的还是漂染的？钮扣门襟还是拉链门襟？褪色的还是普通的？”,The store has a full supply of jeans that are in variety.Since there were too many choices of jeans,the author simply didnt know what particular one,to choose.,2.What can you infer from these paragraphs about buying jeans?,(Paras.2-4),Tips,原句：,The

of buying the jeans made me feel very frustrated.,She was unhappy about too many choices and became impatient in this simple transaction.She probably even considered it nothing but torture.,3.How did the author probably feel about this purchasing experience?,(Para.5),Tips,4.What does paragraph 6 intend to tell us?,(Para.6),Tips,Modern life provides people with more options than they used to have,and material choices are incredibly abundant,but do people feel happier?,原句,：,Its true that enforced restrictions with very limited or no choices make life unbearable,and having options does
