时文选读 | 数字游民：自由与挑战并存的漂泊人生

时文选读| 数字游民：自由与挑战并存的漂泊人生Life as a digital nomad六级 偏易| 337词 刘立军供稿Part I. PassageIf you could work from any location in the world, where would you go? Picture filling in a spreadsheet on a sandy Caribbean island, or maybe a little rooftop cafe in Rome where you can sip an espresso while editing a social media video. More and more countries are offering digital nomad visas and therefore the chance to work remotely, from wherever you’d like to.This way of working is on the rise. A 2023 report found that 11% of US workers now consider themselves a digital nomad, and this type of worker is expected to increase in number by more than 20 million in the next five years. Traditionally, digital nomads have worked freelance. They might be social media managers, software developers or copywriters, but now even traditional professions like accountants and lawyers are taking the leap. But what is the life of a digital nomad really like?Rowena Hennigan, who writes for Harvard Business Review, is a digital nomad along with her family. They have a ‘home base’ in Spain but frequently go away for workcations that can last from weeks to months. She says that compared to a ‘traditional’ model of raising children, “remote working has allowed my family to move away from that kind of intensity, and this way, we all get to move at a more sustainable and healthy pace.” Plus, her family are regularly exposed to new cultures, languages and natural beauty.Though it doesn’t work for everyone. Francesca Specter, a writer for The Guardian, decided to country-hop where her ‘office’ included beaches, cafes and coworking spaces. But along with struggling to find reliable wi-fi and fighting bouts of loneliness, she wrote that she felt envious as she cooled her overheating laptop in the shade while holidaymakers relaxed by the pool. She said, “I was chronically firefighting unglamorous concerns such as missing luggage or sleep deprivation after an overnight flight delay.”So, it’s not for everyone, but if you ever feel like escaping the rat-race, why not give it a go?【Vocabulary】1. spreadsheet n. 电子表格2. espresso n. 浓缩咖啡3. nomad n. 游牧者，流浪者4. freelance adv. 自由职业地5. copywriter n. 文案撰稿人6. accountant n. 会计师7. workcation n. 边工作边度假8. country-hop v. 边工作边穿梭于不同国家旅行9. bout n.一阵（情绪）10. rat-race n. 激烈竞争的生活方式Part II. QuestionsQ1. According to the text, what is one reason digital nomad visas are becoming popular?A. They allow people to work without restrictions.B. They offer opportunities to work from any location.C. They guarantee reliable wi-fi and coworking spaces.D. They encourage traditional professions to go freelance.Q2. What does Rowena Hennigan say about remote working compared to traditional parenting models?A. It allows her family to travel without a home base.B. It exposes her family to fewer cultural experiences.C. It helps her family adopt a healthier and sustainable pace.D. It reduces the need for childcare and traditional schooling.Q3. What can be inferred about the lifestyle of digital nomads?A. It offers flexibility but comes with unique challenges.B. It is only suitable for people in creative industries.C. It eliminates the need for a permanent home base.D. It guarantees a glamorous and stress-free work life.Q4. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To encourage readers to adopt a digital nomad lifestyle.B. To explain how digital nomads overcome work challenges.C. To compare digital nomadism with traditional work models.D. To analyze the pros and cons of being a digital nomad.Part III. KEYQ1. 【答案】B【解析】细节题。题目出处为：More and more countries are offering digital nomad visas and therefore the chance to work remotely, from wherever you’d like to. 意为：“越来越多的国家开始提供数字游民签证，让人们可以远程工作，并在任何自己想去的地方办公。”这里明确指出数字游民签证提供了远程工作的机会，使人们得以“在任何地方工作”，因此正确答案为B。Q2. 【答案】C【解析】细节题。题目出处为：Remote working has allowed my family to move away from that kind of intensity, and this way, we all get to move at a more sustainable and healthy pace. 意为：“远程办公让我家人得以远离那种高强度的生活节奏，以更可持续、更健康的方式生活。”这里强调了远程工作对家庭节奏的积极影响，帮助Rowena Hennigan一家摆脱紧张状态并实现可持续的生活方式，因此正确答案为C。Q3. 【答案】A【解析】推理题。题目出处为：Though it doesn’t work for everyone. Francesca Specter, a writer for The Guardian, decided to country-hop … But along with struggling to find reliable wi-fi and fighting bouts of loneliness, she wrote that she felt envious as she cooled her overheating laptop in the shade while holidaymakers relaxed by the pool. 意为：“但这种生活方式并不适合所有人。《卫报》撰稿人弗朗西丝卡·斯派克特（Francesca Specter）决定在不同国家间“跳岛”旅行……但同时，她也在努力寻找可靠的无线网络并与孤独作斗争。她写道，当她在阴凉处给过热的笔记本降温时，看着度假者在泳池边放松，她感到羡慕。”这个案例指出了数字游民生活方式的灵活性及其伴随的挑战，如可能会孤独或遇到网络不畅等问题，因此可以推断，它既有优势也有挑战，因此正确答案为A。Q4. 【答案】D【解析】主旨题。文章分析了数字游民生活方式的优缺点，既指出了其灵活性和跨文化体验，又揭示了其背后的孤独和可能遇到的困难。整篇文章的核心是分析数字游民生活方式的优缺点，而不是单纯鼓励或比较，因此正确答案为D。（本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

时文选读 | 我们为什么不喜欢接电话了

时文选读| 我们为什么不喜欢接电话了Why we’ve stopped answering the phone? 四级偏难 | 362词 刘立军供稿Part I. PassageSuddenly a sound rings out, stopping you in your tracks. Panicking, you search for where it could be coming from. It’s your phone, and if you’re like a quarter of 18 to 34-year-olds in a recent British study, you probably won’t answer it. The same study found that 70% of people in this age group prefer text messages to phone calls. Why do so many people hate phone calls?While previous generations grew up using landlines to talk to their friends, smartphone-equipped younger people have grown up accustomed to using text messages, group chats and voice notes for social conversations. What these media have in common is that they are asynchronous — they don’t need to happen in real time. When you can craft a reply free of interruption, you have greater control over your contributions to a conversation. It also means that you can reply when it’s best for you. Synchronous communication, like phone calls or face-to-face conversations, can lead people to feel a loss of control and the corresponding anxiety. Coupled to this is that fact that many young people report associating phone calls, particularly those without prior warning, with bad news.This means that new social codes are being established. Many people will now text someone to see if they’re available to take a phone call. If someone doesn’t feel able to sum something up in a few short messages, they might leave a long voice note. Could it be that not wanting to intrude on someone with a sudden phone call is just a question of good manners and respecting someone’s boundaries?Maybe, but this doesn’t mean that anxiety around communication has been eliminated. Texting may be asynchronous, but many people report tensions from being ‘left on read’ — when you know someone has read your message, but they don’t, or won’t, reply. Many would agree with British writer Daisy Buchanan, who reminds us how picking up the phone to talk to someone can be far more effective at relieving tension than a series of awkward messages. So, are these new social codes better at respecting boundaries, or are they just creating a whole new set of potential anxieties?【Vocabulary】1. asynchronous adj. 不同时发生的，非共时的2. craft v. 精心制作3. synchronous adj. 同步的，同时发生的Part II. QuestionsQ1. Why do younger generations prefer texting over phone calls, according to the text? A. Texting allows them to avoid bad news completely.B. Texting provides greater control over the timing and content of replies.C. Texting eliminates the need for voice notes in conversations.D. Texting is considered more polite and respectful than phone calls.Q2. What can be inferred about phone calls from the passage?A. They are mostly used by older generations now.B. They may cause discomfort due to their unexpected nature.C. They are still the preferred method for urgent messages.D. They help reduce social anxiety in communication.Q3. What social change is reflected in today’s phone etiquette?A. People avoid making any phone calls to others.B. Long voice notes are mainly used to express stress.C. It is polite to text first before calling someone.D. Calling without warning is now considered normal.Q4. What does Daisy Buchanan suggest about phone calls compared to texting?A. Phone calls are more effective at resolving communication anxiety.B. Phone calls are considered outdated by most young people.C. Texting is better at respecting boundaries in sensitive situations.D. Texting creates fewer misunderstandings than phone calls.Part III. KEYQ1.【答案】B【解析】细节题。题目出处：When you can craft a reply free of interruption, you have greater control over your contributions to a conversation. It also means that you can reply when it’s best for you. 意为：“当你能够不受干扰地构思回复内容时，你就能更好地掌控自己在对话中的表达。这也意味着你可以在对自身最有利的时候做出回应。”正确答案为B。Q2.【答案】B【解析】推断题。题目出处：… many young people report associating phone calls, particularly those without prior warning, with bad news. 暗示突如其来的电话让人紧张或不安。A 项虽可能正确但未在文中提及；C 项和D 项与原文意思相反。Q3.【答案】C【解析】细节题。文中指出，人们现在更倾向于先发短信确认对方是否方便接电话，以避免突然打扰，这种做法反映了一种新的社交礼仪。因此，正确答案是C。A项“避免所有通话”说法太绝对；B项“表达压力”并非语音信息的主要用途；D项则与文意相反，因为段末提出突然来电可能被认为不礼貌、不尊重他人边界。Q4.【答案】A【解析】推理题。题目出处：Many would agree with British writer Daisy Buchanan, who reminds us how picking up the phone to talk to someone can be far more effective at relieving tension than a series of awkward messages. 意为：“许多人会同意英国作家黛西·布坎南的观点，她提醒我们，与其发送一系列尴尬的信息，不如拿起电话与某人交谈，这可以更有效地缓解紧张情绪。”可以推断，她认为电话比短信更能有效缓解沟通焦虑。因此正确答案为A。 （本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

教学素材 | 锻炼的最佳时间真的存在吗？

锻炼的最佳时间真的存在吗？Is there a best time to exercise?词汇：四级 | 句法：四级 | 文本：四级刘立军供稿With our already busy lives, finding time to exercise can feel like one more thing on our ‘to do’ list. So maybe it would help if there was ‘a best time’ to exercise? Could exercising at certain times help maximize our fitness goals? The answer is ‘yes’, but it’s easier than you think — no matter who you are, or when you like to work out.在我们已经忙碌不堪的生活中，抽时间锻炼可能感觉像是又给我们的“待办清单”新增了一项任务。那么，是否存在一个“最佳锻炼时间”呢？在特定时间锻炼，是否能帮助我们最大化达成健身目标呢？答案是肯定的，而且比你想象的要简单——无论你是谁，或者你喜欢什么时候锻炼，都可以找到适合自己的方式。There are clear benefits to exercising in the morning. Many of us have more free time compared to later in the day, and it may therefore be easier for us to stick to a morning workout routine. 晨练有着明显的好处。与一天中的其他时段相比，许多人早晨的时间更充裕，因此更容易坚持晨练的习惯。A study published in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise found that participants who exercised in the morning increased their physical activity throughout the day, were less distracted by food, and slept better. Exercising on an empty stomach before breakfast could also burn more fat and increase metabolism, which means you’ll continue to burn calories throughout the day. 发表在《运动医学与科学》上的一项研究发现，参与早晨锻炼的人在一整天中身体活动量增加，受到食物的干扰减少，并且睡眠质量更好。空腹晨练还能燃烧更多脂肪并提高新陈代谢，这意味着在一整天里都能持续消耗热量。So, good news for early birds, but what if you’re not a morning person?所以，早起确实有早起的好处，但如果你不是喜欢早起的人呢？Working out in the afternoon or evening also has benefits, just different ones. For example, your body’s ability to perform peaks in the afternoon, according to a 2010 study by the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports. 下午或晚上锻炼也有好处，只是优势有所不同。例如，根据《斯堪的纳维亚运动医学与科学杂志》2010年的一项研究，人体在下午时段的运动表现达到最佳状态。Also, in the afternoon and evening, your reaction time is quickest, and your heart rate and blood pressure are lowest, which reduce your chance of injury while improving performance.此外，在下午和晚上，你的反应速度最快，心率和血压最低，这不仅降低了受伤风险，还能提升运动表现。But does any of this change depending on whether you’re a man or a woman? Our bodies are different, after all, so the best time to exercise may be different too. A 2022 study from Skidmore College, New York, looked at exactly this question and the results showed that there are some differences.但这些结论是否会因性别不同而有所变化呢？毕竟，男性和女性的身体存在差异，因此锻炼的最佳时间也可能不同。纽约斯基德莫尔学院2022年的一项研究正好探讨了这个问题，结果显示确实存在一些差异。Want to reduce your blood pressure and you’re a woman? Exercise in the morning. Want to improve your heart health and you’re a man? Evening is better for you. But, ultimately, the study found that there are clear benefits for both sexes to exercising at either time of day.例如，如果你想降低血压，对于女性来说，早晨锻炼效果更佳；而如果你是男性，想改善心脏健康，晚上锻炼对你更有益。但最终，该研究发现，无论男女，在一天中的这两个时段锻炼都有明确的益处。So what time is best? It seems the answer is: whatever time is best for you!那么，什么时间锻炼最好呢？看来答案是：最适合你的时间，就是最佳时间！【词汇】1. maximize v. 最大化，使达到最大值2. workout n. 锻炼，健身活动3. metabolism n. 新陈代谢4. peak v. 达到高峰，达到最佳状态5. ultimately adv. 最终，从根本上来说 （本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

TRANSCRIPTWhy forgetting is good for you Have you ever bumped into someone and their name just doesn’t come to you? Or, you walk into a room and suddenly can’t recall why you’re there? Being forgetful can be really annoying, sometimes even embarrassing. But what if I told you that there are actually good reasons for our memories fading away?In a BBC interview, neuroscientist Charan Ranganath uses a hoarding analogy. We don’t tend to store everything we’ve ever owned in our house. Similarly, we don’t need to store all our memories either. He says, (Q1) “If we didn’t forget anything, we’d be hoarding memories, and you’d never be able to find what you want, when you want it.” For example, you don’t need to remember the hotel number weeks after you’ve left the hotel or memorize all the faces you pass on the street.neuroscientist n. 神经科学家hoarding n. 贮藏，囤积We also need to be able to forget things in order to update our memories with new information. Imagine you get used to the same school timetable or work schedule for a whole year, but the next year, you have new procedures or routines. (Q2) Your brain needs to be flexible and forget irrelevant details in order to handle the new information. Or, maybe it’s been 10 years since you last saw a distant relative. It’s likely their face has changed a lot since then, so that memory needs to be updated as well.And, if you’ve ever been convinced that you know a word, but it just doesn’t pop into your head, you’re not alone. (Q3) This tip-of-the-tongue phenomenon may suggest that some things are not fully forgotten, just currently inaccessible. Those with a higher level of knowledge are more affected by this, according to studies such as ‘Impact of knowledge and age on tip-of-the-tongue rates’, because their brains have to sort through more information to find the word.tip-of-the-tongue phenomenon 舌尖效应，指心理学中“话到嘴边却无法说出”的现象Memories are sometimes compared to a cliff: once they have crumbled, they are lost and cannot be retrieved. However, in their article ‘Forgetfulness: Why your mind going blank can be a benefit’, Sanjay Sarma and Luke Yoquinto write that (Q4) forgetting, it seems, is “less like a cliff slowly collapsing into the sea, and more like a house deep in the woods that becomes harder and harder to find”.crumble v. 崩塌，碎裂retrieve v. 找回，恢复Part III.

By highlighting studies focused on high-performance athletes.Part II. TRANSCRIPTFor Exercising, When and How Should You Stretch?Years ago, the traditional advice was to do some stretching before exercising. Over the years, that advice changed to stretching after exercising. It turns out that both advice can be true. And that can lead to some confusion.(Q1-1) Stretching can help make you more flexible. The more you stretch, the more you improve the range of motion in your joints. This not only feels good, but it also can prevent injury and lead to better physical results.David Behm researches human body movements at Memorial University of Newfoundland in St. John’s, Canada. Speaking with the Associated Press, he offers advice on when to stretch and how to do it safely.Warm up firstIt is almost always good to stretch. However, Behm says it is better if you warm up first. He suggests light aerobic activity such as jogging, walking or cycling for 5-10 minutes.aerobic adj. 有氧的(Q2) He suggests to follow that warm-up movement with static stretching. This traditional way of stretching involves reaching your body into different positions and holding them for about one minute each.static adj. 静态的，不动的Then you can do dynamic stretching related to specific exercises or activities. This is where you warm up the muscles with repeated movements like leg lifts.Expand your definition of ‘stretching’Should you always stretch before exercising? If it is traditional static stretching, not necessarily, Behm says.The better questions, he says, are, “Should people increase their range of motion? Should people have better flexibility? And that is yes, (Q1-2) because it helps prevent injuries. It helps with health. But you don’t have to stretch to achieve that.”Resistance training, for example, can be an effective form of stretching. Doing a chest press increases range of motion in your arm and chest muscles. Whether you use barbells, dumbbells or machines, there is no need to stretch beforehand. However, Behm warns to start with a small amount of weight to warm up and then add more to train.effective adj. 有效的barbell n. 杠铃dumbbell n. 哑铃He adds that you do not need to stretch first if you are going for a short run. Simply start with a slow jog to warm up and then increase the speed.Don’t do it if it hurts(Q3) After exercise, light stretching is fine, as long as you do not feel pain, Behm says. Because your muscles will be warm by that point, overdoing it makes you more likely to injure yourself. Foam rollers can help with muscle recovery and have been shown to increase range of motion as well as stretching.overdo v. 做得过度，超过foam roller 泡沫轴Do some static stretching before sportsIf you’re playing a sport, Behm says, static stretching beforehand helps reduce muscle and tendon injury.tendon n. 腱Sports like gymnastics, ice skating, and golf require a great range of motion. For these activities, he suggests extra stretching specific to those sports.“If you’re going to do an explosive movement, change of direction, agility, sprint, any of these explosive activities that involve your muscles and tendons,” he said, “you’re going to be stronger if you do static stretching.”agility n. 敏捷，灵活sprint n. 短跑，全速奔跑People can especially get in trouble when they go back to a sport they used to play. Stretching can prepare muscles that may be out of shape. (Q4) Also, he says to stretch both sides of your body equally. Lacking flexibility on one side also can lead to injury.Sounds simple. Why all the confusion?(Q5) Different studies over the years have led to different advice about stretching before exercise. Behm says that is partly because some studies did not consider real-life conditions. Also, some researchers designed studies with high-performance athletes in mind and not regular people.“If you’re Usain Bolt, it makes a difference,” he said. For the rest of us not so much.Part III. KEYQ1. C. 主旨题。根据整体文章内容，特别是各部分的总结，如“Stretching can help make you more flexible... It helps prevent injuries. It helps with health.” 均表明 Behm 的建议主要集中在增加灵活性和预防伤害。因此答案为C。Q2. B. 细节题。根据“He suggests to follow that warm-up movement with static stretching... Then you can do dynamic stretching related to specific exercises or activities.” 可知Behm建议在热身运动后进行静态拉伸，然后在进行与特定运动或活动相关的动态拉伸。因此答案为B。Q3. A.细节题。根据“After exercise, light stretching is fine, as long as you do not feel pain... Foam rollers can help with muscle recovery and have been shown to increase range of motion as well as stretching.” 可知Behm建议运动后可以进行轻微拉伸，但若产生疼痛应立即停止……泡沫滚轴可以帮助肌肉恢复，跟拉伸有一样的效果，也就是说使用泡沫轴时如果感到疼痛也应该避免。因此答案为A。Q4. C.. 细节题。根据“Also, he says to stretch both sides of your body equally. Lacking flexibility on one side also can lead to injury.” 可知当长时间休息后重新开始一项运动时，要均衡地伸展身体的两侧，以防止受伤。因此答案为C。Q5. D. 推理题。根据“Different studies over the years have led to different advice about stretching before exercise. Behm says that is partly because some studies did not consider real-life conditions. Also, some researchers designed studies with high-performance athletes in mind and not regular people.” 可知Behm认为关于拉伸的建议之所以不同，部分是因为一些研究没有考虑现实生活条件，此外，一些研是针对高水平运动员，而不是普通人设计的。因此答案为D。（本文图片来源于摄图网，版权归摄图网所有)

授课点评：潘紫萌老师在本次大赛中与来自全国各地的商务英语优秀教师展开激烈角逐，在教学理念、教学方法、课堂设计、英语素质、商务知识、教姿教态、师生互动等方面的表现都较突出，最后以总分第一荣获特等奖。潘老师以准确的英语发音先声夺人，丰富的表达方式、适中的语调语速和端庄的教姿教态也令人印象深刻。在课程设计环节，为实现其教学目标，她选择business ethics作为主题，介绍了教学目标、学生特征、以学生为中心和以产出为导向的教学理念，以及线上线下结合、传统和高科技媒体结合等丰富多彩的教学方式。这份介绍全面立体但简明扼要，为后面的演示（demo）课提供了一个很好的支撑。由于大赛的授课时间有限，潘老师突出重点，在演示课上只展示教学方案的第三步，即participatory learning 1 和 post assessment 1。她采用BOPPPS（bridge in, objectives, pre-assessment, participatory learning, post assessment, summary）模型，通过德国大众汽车减排作假、中国支付宝公益植树项目等案例，教学目标涵盖商务英语知识、技能、以及相关的伦理和价值观等。在短短的十几分钟里要达到这么多项教学目标绝非易事。潘老师通过一系列的短视频、多种教学方法（如听力填空、案例讨论、汉译英、样本对话补正等）以及活泼的师生互动，较好地实现了教学目标，显示出选手突出的课堂组织能力。商务英语教学起源于英美等国，因此基本使用本国素材、讲本国故事。传入中国后，主要使用外国素材、讲外国故事。令人欣喜的是，潘老师注意突出中国特色，多次引用中国案例，讲授中国故事，传播中国价值观。加上她出色的英语基本功和良好的师生互动，使得教学过程十分流畅，也没有不同文化同场展示的违和感。总而言之，潘紫萌老师在授课环节的各方面表现都很优秀。不足之处当然也有。首先， 8’13’’开始的讨论过于仓促，只有18秒， 8’31’’就结束了。由于讨论不充分，在随后的问答环节中，更多的回答似乎来自老师而不是学生。第二个是要增加教学过程的自然自发 (spontaneity)。不知是因为课前多次排练还是老师特意要求，学生的产出只有一次对话（17’40’’）相对自然，其他的多次回答虽准确无误，但都像中国小学生朗读课文或回答问题，语音、语调、语速都过于整齐合一，这不利于培养学生的英语实际表达能力。点评专家：陈准民

第12届教学大赛商务英语组二等奖贺静授课

授课点评：贺静老师授课效果较好，教学目标清楚、教学方法得当、教学程序井井有条。此外，贺静老师口齿清晰，语音语调比较纯正、流利；教态端庄自然，有亲和力，教学过程中与学生互动良好，体现了以学生为主体，教师为主导的教学原则。授课分两部分。第一部分介绍该单元（Empire of Wealth）的总教学安排，用了3分30秒，时间把握得比较好。另外，设计的PPT形式多样，各种图表清楚展现了教学安排。授课开始的第三分钟，PPT显示的该单元总教学目标及三篇课文的教学目标一览无遗，加上贺静老师的阐释，清晰地传递了教学目标和学习目标，这能帮助学生在课堂内外围绕主题有效学习。紧接着，贺静老师借助PPT上的流程图比较详细地介绍了授课课文In Praise of Competitive Urges的教学安排，其中的Problem-centred教学方法对学生发现、分析和解决问题有很大帮助。之后进入第二部分：比赛授课阶段。第二部分具体授课含四个阶段。进入第一阶段Warm-up时，贺静老师显得有点紧张，但很快就调整好了状态。该阶段有教师对课文理解的提问，请学生从课文中找到相关的依据回答问题，这种做法本来值得称道，因为授课不能离开课文。但是，Warm-up阶段是课前准备阶段，因此，贺静老师在Warm-up阶段讲解课文不妥，建议把重点放在教材中的Warm-up Activities上，适当设计一些附加的活动，才符合教学逻辑。此外，在总时间为20分钟且第一阶段用了3分30秒的情况下，Warm-up阶段用了5分1秒显得有点过长。之后是第二阶段Questionnaire Results，贺静老师分析解释了调查表中的信息，谈了自己对问题的看法，期间激励学生思考、回答问题，这对培养学生的独立思考能力及理解课文非常有益。Questionnaire之后进入授课第三阶段：Wealth-flaunting Motivations / Summarizing。炫富动机是课文包含的核心内容之一。因此，讨论炫富动机有助于学生理解课文。教师要求学生从PPT上（视频13'）显示的课文段落寻找答案，并要求学生做pair work找到有关的词汇。另外，通过分析课文的修辞寓意，贺静老师阐释了文章作者的真实目的。这一点做得很好。另一方面，根据该单元内容，所授的是“综合商务英语”课程。因此，贺静老师应更多围绕语言难点、篇章结构、写作风格、文法修辞等方面进行解释，让学生对课文有更深层次的理解。第四阶段Assignment在视频18'15"开始。课后作业包括questionnaire设计、调研报告写作、相关阅读作业。这样较好兼顾了综合商务英语课程语言学习和商务实践的教学特点。建议更多以教材内容教学为主，重视语言、篇章教学，在帮助学生充分理解课文的前提下掌握一些商务知识和技能；需要结合课文融入更多的思政教育内容。点评专家：翁凤翔
