The first passage describes the change in feelings a
woman experiences when she spends time with her
husband’s initially silent friend who both surprises and

tempts her. The next passage is a discussion about the
contrast between a family based upon romance, the “love
family”, and a family based upon a marriage. The author
concludes that the bonds are too loose in a love family and
thus have negative consequences for any children involved.
Passage C explores the concept of love and how one

partner’s actions affect the other’s feelings and
development as a person. Essentially the author believes
that it is necessary to respect the other’s uniqueness and

First Listening
Please listen to a short passage carefully and prepare to answer
some questions
Initially Mrs. Baroda found her husband’s friend’s silence
both puzzling and boring. Her husband, Gaston, had
Book 4
Unit 10
informed her that his friend, Gouvernail, would be staying at
the plantation for a few weeks and that he had a great wit.
But she found his solemn silence lacking in any interest.
The truth was, however, that he was a run-down, exhausted
man merely seeking a short rest from overwork. Once he

opened up and revealed his true personality, Mrs. Baroda
Global Reading
was surprised and shocked by the temptation and desire he

Mrs.Baroda heard footsteps coming from the direction of

Mrs.Baroda was greatly tempted that night to tell her

Collocation
V. Collocation is a combination of words in a language that happens very often and
more frequently than would happen by chance. And it has one of the difficult
points fro Chinese learners of English. Instead of saying “receiving the telephone”,
“open a check”, “receive an operation” and “crowded traffic”, we should say
“answer the telephone”, “write out/make out a check”, “have/undergo an
operation”and “busy/heavy traffic”. Now look at the following sentence taken
from your reading passage. Just think about what else you can “impose” and fill in
the sentences with the right word
e.g. Then she imposed her company upon him, accompanying him in his idle walks to
the mill to press her attempt to penetrate the silence in which he had
unconsciously covered himself.

Text Structure Analysis
The passage is a story structurally governed by time sequence as a whole, which can
be divided into several parts or several episodes accordingly. Along with the chronical
order of episodes, we find the main characters, Mrs. Baroda, experiences a process of
attitude change and emotion change. The changes in Mrs. Baroda are characterized by a
structure of cause-and-effect. What are the causes that lead to the effect of a puzzled
feeling and to Mrs. Baroda’s thinking of the guest as a terrible nuisance? Or what is the
effect of Gouvernail’s low, hesitating narration about himself? And lastly what are the
causes that lead to the effect the Mrs. Baroda finally welcomed Gouvernail’s revisit?
There are many parts in the passage carefully written with the cause-and-effect structure.
XIII. Now have a look at Paragraph 2 to find out the causes that lead to the effect
of a puzzling feeling. Then fill out the chart below.
Para.2
Gouvernail's quiet personality puzzled Mrs.Baroda. After a few days with him,
she could understand him no better than at first. She left her husband and his guest, for
the most part, alone together, only to find that Gouvernail hardly noticed her absence.
Then she imposed her company upon him, accompanying him in his idle walks to the
mill to press her attempt to penetrate the silence in which he had unconsciously covered
himself. But it hardly worked.

Structured Writing
Mrs. Baroda could never understand her guest, Gouvernail, even after a
few days with him on the plantation. She purposely left her husband and his
guest alone, not joining them, only to find that Gouvernail didn’t seem to
notice her absence at all. Then, she imposed her company upon him, trying
to penetrate his mysterious silence, but without success, too. She found
him a dull man without any wit or anything interesting at all, a man with few
words and a man who walled himself against the outside world. Mrs. Baroda
found to her great disappointment that Gouvernail was a nuisance. Finally,
Baroda decided that she should leave the house and that she would not
come back until Gouvernail was gone.
