role in a company.What skills and qualities do you think a good secretary should possess?What duties may business secretaries perform in a company?Have you ever thought of becoming a business secretary after graduation?The learning of the three texts in this unit will help you find satisfactory answers to the questions above.In addition to some knowledge about a secretary,this unit also tells you how to use scanning to search for needed information.第第3页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社Reading Skill FocusWords and ExpressionsPractical ReadingComprehensive Reading第第4页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社Scanning(1)Scanning is a fast reading technique.Its a way of reading to look for specific information in a text.Scanning can be used to look up a phone number,read through the small ads in a newspaper,or browse TV schedules,timetables,lists,catalogues or web pages for information.For these tasks you dont need to read or understand every word.Reading Skill Focus第第5页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社 In scanning,we search for needed information and neglect the irrelevant information.For example,in preparation for a research paper we may have to consult a number of reference books in order to find particular names,dates,figures,definitions or facts.In the course of reading,we usually run our eyes rapidly over the reading material until we come to the right place.Here we shall decrease our reading speed and read carefully until we locate the specific item of information we need.第第6页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社We shall probably not continue beyond that point,for we have fulfilled our special reading purpose.In this unit,you will get a general picture of Scanning.Next unit will tell you more about this technique.第第7页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社AGuided Practice The

3.C。第第14页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社B.Challenge Yourself Read the following passage quickly and choose the best answer for each of the questions that follow.Beauty with Botox Botox injections are one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the world.Celebrities like Madonna,Kylie Minogue and Liz Hurley are rumoured to be keeping the wrinkles at bay this way.Sir Cliff Richard admitted to having had the treatment and now it is an increasingly popular choice for ordinary women looking for a quick way to look younger.第第15页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社What is Botox?Botox is made from“botulinum toxin”,a poison produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.This bacterium causes botulisma severe form of food poisoning.In small quantities,however,Botox merely interrupts nerve muscles in the face.第第16页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社 Botox first began to be used in 1980 to treat many muscle disorders such as lazy eye,eye ticks and uncontrolled blinking.Cosmetic treatments were pioneered by dermatological surgeons in 1987.In small doses,Botox works by paralysing the muscles of the face which are used in frowning and raising the eyebrows.When these muscles relax,the fine lines and wrinkles smooth out.Unfortunately,when it is overdone,Botox treatment can leave the face with a lack of expression.This is reputed to have caused a problem for some actors.第第17页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社Armpit attack Botox is reportedly a favorite with Oscar nominees who dont want to work up a sweat on the red carpet.Some stars have injections in their armpits to paralyze the sweat glands there.This way they can receive their awards knowing they dont have sweaty patches undertheir arms and hand back their couture outfits unstained.第第18页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社How long does it last?Injections take effect about three to seven days after treatment and the effect lasts three or four months.A treatment costs roughly 200.With repeated treatments,atrophy or thinning of the muscles occurs,which produces longer lasting results.Botox may be unsuitable for use around the mouth as the muscles there are important for facial expressions and eating.第第19页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社Side effects Soreness or mild bruising can occur around the injection site.In rare instances patients may experience a droopy eyebrow or eyelid.Headaches can also occur.Since it is still a relatively new treatment,any possible side effects of long-term use are still unknown.Botoxshould only be administered by experienced and well-trained doctors or nurses.A high dose could cause poisoning,or an exaggerated effect.第第20页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社Botox and Bollinger Botox parties are causing concern amongst practitioners.People are receiving treatments whilst sipping champagne.The American Academy of Dermatology has warned against this practice.Alcohol and Botox do not mix well.Not only can booze intensify bruising but it can also wash the toxin away from the target muscle.第第21页页大连理工大学出版社大连理工大学出版社1.According to the article,which of the following celebrities is rumoured to have used Botox?A.Jerry Hall.B.Judy Finnigan.C.Liz Hurley.D.Barbara
