Part Three: Writing Practice“Differences Between Men and Women .”Traditionally, men and women were seen as opposite poles
35、 of a magnet. Men were strong, women were weak; men were the breadwinners, women were the homemakers; men were rational, women were emotional. In accordance with these beliefs, the men filled the leadership positions in society, as well as the majority of positions that required courage, clear-think
36、ing and intellect. Women took on the nurturing, caring or supportive jobs such as nurse, teacher, assistant. However, modern society has greatly challenged these perceived differences between men and women.These days gender roles are becoming less clear. Women are moving into the male-dominated occu

From the changing perspectives towards this question, it would seem that socialization plays a large role in defining masculinity and femininity in any given time period and in any given culture. In other words, perhaps men and
39、women are not that different after all. 章节Listening and Speaking (Unit1-2)课时2教学目的Aims: To familiarize students with the three basic steps of listening;To finish the listening exercises based on the given information;To practice using the listening strategy-prediction;To learn how to introduce a deba
