Social Relationships
Life places us in a complex web of relationships with other people. Our humanness arises out of these relationships in the course of social interaction. Moreover, our humanness must be sus tained through social interaction--and fairly constantly so. When an association continues long enough for two people to become linked together by a relatively stable set of expectations, it is called a relationship.
People are bound within relationships by two types of bonds: expressive ties and instrumental ties. Expressive ties are social links formed when we emotionally invest ourselves in and commit ourselves to other people. Through association with people who are meaningful to us, we achieve a sense of security, love, acceptance, companionship, and personal worth. Instrumental ties are so-cial links formed when we cooperate with other people to achieve some goal. Occasionally, this may mean working with instead of against competitors. More often, we simply cooperate with others to reach some end without endowing the relationship with any larger significance.

Passage 2
The Mystery of Yawning
According to conventional theory, yawning takes place when people are bored or sleepy and serves the function of increasing alertness by reversing, through deeper breath- ing, the drop in blood oxygen levels that are caused by the shallow breathing that accom-panies lack of sleep or boredom. Unfortunately, the few scientific investigations of yawning have failed to find any connection between how often someone yawns and how much sleep they have had or how tired they are. About the closest any research has come to supporting the tiredness theory is to confirm that adults yawn more often on weekdays than at weekends, and that school children yawn more frequently in their first year at primary school than they do in kindergarten.
Another flaw of the tiredness theory is that yawning does not raise alertness or physiological activity, as the theory would predict. When researchers measured the heart rate, muscle tension and skin conductance of people before, during and after yawning, they did detect some changes in skin conductance following yawning, indicating a slight increase in physiological activity. However, similar changes occurred when the subjects were asked simply to open their mouths or to breathe deeply. Yawning did nothing special to their state of physiological activity. Experiments have also cast serious doubt on the belief that yawning is triggered by a drop in blood oxygen or a rise in blood carbon dioxide. Volunteers were told to think about yawning while they breathed either nor-mal air, pure oxygen, or an air mixture with an above-normal level of carbon dioxide. If the theory was correct, breathing air with extra carbon dioxide should have triggered yawning, while breath-ing pure oxygen should have suppressed yawning. In fact, neither condition made any difference to the frequency of yawning, which remained constant at about 24 yawns per hour. Another experi-ment demonstrated that physical exercise, which was sufficiently vigorous to double the rate of breathing, had no effect on the frequency of yawning. Again the implication is that yawning has little or nothing to do with oxygen.

English learners are getting younger. A global survey of English for young learners, undertaken by the British Council in 1999, showed that the majority of countries in which English was taught in primary schools had introduced the innovation in the 1990s.
Since then, the practice has become more widespreaD． In Europe, almost every country docu-mented in the 2005 Eurydice survey showed an increasing percentage of primary pupils learning English during the years 1998-2002 (the most recent year for which data was available). Since2002, the trend has continued apace.
(a) One rationale for teaching languages to young children is the idea that they find it easier to learn languages than older students. (b) They are still developing physically and intellectually; their emotional needs may be higher, they are less able to take responsibility for their own learn-ing. (c) One of the practical reasons for introducing English to younger learner is to ensure that they have longer time in their school careers to master the language; another is because the timetables in secondary schools now have too many competing demands. (d)
There are many hazards attached to EYL, not least of which is that it requires teachers who are proficient in English, have wider training in child development, and who are able to motivate young children. Such teachers are in short supply in most countries, but failure at this stage_may be difficult to remedy later.

《义务教育英语课程标准》以科学发展观和先进的外语课程理念为指导，立足国情，综合分析了我国英语教育发展的现状，充分考虑了语言学习的规律和义务教育阶段学生的发展需求。与过去传统外语教学大纲相比，请你从四个方面陈述新课程理念上所呈现的变革和特点。

教师在小学课堂教授新单词时，通常会采用相应的方法和技巧，模拟创造情景。请列举出常见的四种词汇教学方法。

案例分析：
(1)下面是一位小学英语老师在课堂中教授现在进行时这一语法项目的话语片断，请根据该片断分析该教师运用了归纳法还是演绎法?该方法有何利弊?
同学们：我们今天将会学习一种新语法项目：现在进行时，现在进行时是用动词的ING形式表示正在进行的动作，比如：
He is singing. She is dancing. Tom is running. Amy is reading.
(2)下面是一位小学英语教师课堂听说教学的真实片断，请你从教学理念和教学步骤等方面分析该教师的听说教学的有效性。
This teacher has just taught preposition and in this lesson she is going to play a card game but she notices that there are a lot of things on pupils’desks so she makes an on-the-spot decision．
T：…Let’s play a card game．Now take out your cards．You all have 5 cards，right?
Ss：Right，yes．
T：OK．Listen．Please look at me…OK，now show me your paper，this one(holds on the pa-per)．Put your paper in your desk．OK，now next show me your books．Right，put your books in your desk．OK，now last，show me your pencil box．Put it in your desk．OK，good…．Now put your cards on the desk，on the left side．

教学设计：
(1)教学是一种有明确目的的活动，这种目的性渗透到课堂教学中，并由每堂课的具体目标来实现。教学目标对于指导课堂教学实施具有非常重要的作用。制定教学目标是课堂教学设计的第一步，是教师完成教学任务所要达到的要求或标准。请你根据《义务教育英语课程标准》中的总体课程目标结构，以“PEP Primary English Students’Book(小学五年级)上册Unit 5”一篇课文为例(如下)，设计一个五维度的课堂教学目标。
We are rabbits. We have a new flat. It's on the third floor, There are two bedrooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and a living room. I'm a baby rabbit. I have my own room now. It's small and
nice. There is a mirror, a bed and a big closet. There are green curtains and two end tables. There
is a new air-conditioner. It's cool, I love my new room very much.
(2)以上文为例，假如教师通过小组合作的形式让学生自学该课文的内容。并运用评估的方式检验学生的学习情况，请你从话题、语法、词汇、策略和反思等方面设计一份自我评估表。(逐条列举，不必作表格)。
