（2）Text understanding
①背景知识层面思政元素：
The author, Miles Corwin, was once a student in community college. But after great efforts, he went to UC Santa Barbara and received his M.A. at the University of Missouri School of Journalism. He worked as a crime reporter for the Los Angeles Times and is now professor at UC Irvine.
Note: community college is a higher education institution that provides a two-year curriculum that can lead to an associate’s degree. Many students suspend their studies here. But from the author’s experience, we can see that where there is a will, there is a way.
②篇章理解层面思政元素：
通过让员工快速阅读，引发员工进一步思考，了解课文整体内涵，体会到大学专业并不代表一个人的未来，且只有努力者才能成功。同时，通过整篇文章内容，让员工感受到文科学习具有一定的重要性。

③语言知识层面思政元素（结合思辨）：
Maybe reading novels wasn’t just an escape and diversion. Maybe the study of literature would be a worthwhile pursuit. And if I could succeed as a literature student, maybe it would lead me in a direction that might enhance my career prospects. (Para. 10)
讲解diversion, pursuit, prospect三个词汇时，让员工同时思考以下三个问题：
Do you have the feeling of escape and diversionwhen studying this major?
Is your major a worthwhile pursuit?
What’s your career prospect?
Students might have some difficulties when studying the major, by thinking up these three questions and encouraging them,they can regain a new view on study and life.
3. iExplore 2 Follow a career passion? Let it follow you
（1）lead-in
引入部分思政元素
view of employment: what is great glitters, its glitter arouses ambition, and ambition can easily have produced the inspiration, or what we took for inspiration; but reason can no longer restrain the man who is tempted by the demon of ambition, and he plunges headlong into what impetuous instinct suggests: he no longer chooses his position in life, instead it is determined by chance and illusion. Nor are we called upon to adopt the position which offers us the most brilliant opportunities.
通过马克思这段话，使员工理解正确择业观，引入课文内容，让员工思考择业这一话题。

4. iProduce单元任务输出评价
Writing an essay: the authors of the two texts tell us how they chose their major or future career. One took his professor's advice to follow his interest and changed his major. The other took a very different path by letting passion follow him. How did you decide on your major? Do you think that you made a good choice?
You have studied in college for several months. After going through some difficulties or problems, you are more confident in your study. Now you are invited by your senior high school to share your experience of choosing your major with Grade 3 students who will be choosing their majors. You will write an essay in which you reflect on how you chose your major and then give suggestions.

Criteria for evaluation
5. 课后练习思政元素：
Translate the sentences into Chinese:
(1) Once you choose a path to take, that decision comes with necessary next steps and responsibilities.
一旦你选择了一条道路，这一决定就意味着下一步要制定种种计划，承担各种责任。
(2) Companies are more open to failure than they've been in the past. That's why ambitious young professionals – and women in particular – are encouraged to take calculated risks（可预计的风险）.
The lessons learned will be just as valuable in failure as they would be in success.
各家公司现在对失败的态度比过去更开明。因此我们鼓励有抱负的年轻专业人士，尤其是女性，承担一些可预计的风险。从失败中吸取的教训与从成功中获得的经验同样珍贵。
(3) Sometimes just quitting a job because it's boring is the wrong thing to do, but thinking about where you want to be and if you need more education is good planning.
有时候，仅仅因为工作枯燥乏味而辞职并不是明智之举。但是思考一下你到底想要什么，或者是否需要深造，这不无益处。
(4) We’ve all hit that point where we can’t figure out exactly whatreally want to do with our lives. It can come when you’re 18 orwhen you’re 50, and it’s always a difficult process to workthrough.
我们都有过那样的时候，我们无法确切地弄清楚我们生活中到底想要什么。那可能是我们18 岁的时候，也可能是50 岁的时候，而且那会是一个很难应对的过程。
Translate the sentences into English.
(1)俗话说，鱼与熊掌不可兼得。对于很多白领而言，很难同时追求事业和照顾家庭。（you cannot have your cake and eat it; white-collar, pursue）
As the saying goes, you cannot have your cake and eat it. For many white-collar workers, it is quite difficult to pursue acareer and look after the family at the same time.
(2)随着生活水平的不断提高，人们在节假日间可选择的娱乐活动越来越多，如旅游、购物、看电影等. (living standards; recreationalactivities)
With the improvement of people’s living standards, peoplehave more choices of recreational activities for festivals andholidays, like traveling, shopping, watching movies and soon.
(3)自从中国实行改革开放政策以来，大量的外国投资促进了中国社会和经济的发展。(reform and opening up)
Since China adopted the reform and opening-up policy, large amounts of foreign investment have promoted its social and economic development.
四、教学反思
1.思政元素要融合地自然、恰当
针对英语教材思政元素的结合点，仍需不断挖掘、商讨，要与时事相结合，与党的最新政策和方针相结合。同时，在讲解时要融入地自然、恰当，让员工体会到所传达的观念。
2.以多种形式引起员工兴趣
本单元主题是“人生选择”，此话题离员工有一定距离。比如，员工在理解就业观念时有一点困难。因此，可以引入多种形式，如相关主题视频展示，员工情景对话等，帮助员工理解单元主题。
