这个单元有 5 章:原创课文「 burnout 之后」、词汇延展(健康/心理词族与习语)、语法延展(冗长句衔接:用连接词与分词把短句织成长句)、功能句型(Writing Article 健康话题 + 口语 Part 4)、CPE 考点与 8 题自测。
学完你能:把零散短句织成逻辑严密的 C2 长句,用 furthermore/nevertheless/granted 衔接;区分 burnout/stress 的语域。
预计时间:约 1 周半。
衔接说明:你在 FCE 已会基本连接词,本单元升级为 C2 的高密度衔接与冗长句组织。
健康单元 = 心理词族 + 衔接手段。课文写 narrator 从职业倦怠中恢复的经历,词汇按「压力/恢复/心态」分组,语法攻克用连接词把短句织成 40 词不断句的复合句。
主题课文 · 慢下来的那一年
课文 · A Burden Off My Shoulders
(可参看本单元语法深化页)课文精讲 · C2 怎么把观点说透
论为什么这段课文是「长句衔接教材」
短句写法:The rewards were considerable. The toll on my health was mounting. I collapsed. I realised my life was unsustainable.
C2 写法(衔接织句):The rewards were considerable; nevertheless, the toll on my health was mounting. It was not until I collapsed that I realised how unsustainable my life had become. Having been advised to rest, I stepped back, only to discover that I was more productive.
升级点 1 — 逻辑连接词:granted(诚然)/ nevertheless(然而)/ above all(最重要的是)。
升级点 2 — It was not until...that 强调句:直到…才…。
升级点 3 — 分词 + only to:Having been advised..., I stepped back, only to discover...(出乎意料的结果)。
① a burden off one's shoulders 卸下重担
② by leaps and bounds 突飞猛进
③ weigh on someone 压在某人心头
④ switch off 彻底放松、不再想工作
⑤ equate A with B 把 A 等同于 B

功能句型 · Writing Article + 口语 Part 4
三套句型模板
It began, as these things often do, with a simple symptom...
Like many people, I assumed I could keep going — until I couldn't.
What I learnt over the following year changed my outlook entirely.
In hindsight, I would advise anyone in my position to...
Rather than waiting to burn out, we should...
The lesson, I believe, is that well-being is not a luxury but a prerequisite.
Is burnout an individual failing, or does it reflect a broken system?
We have, it seems, normalised being constantly exhausted.
Where does personal responsibility end and institutional duty begin?
场景对话 · 口语 Part 4 讨论「社会是否把过度工作正常化了」
Student A: We have, it seems, normalised being constantly exhausted. Granted, our lives are convenient; nevertheless, we sit for hours, sleep too little and rest almost never.
Student B: I'd go further. Is burnout an individual failing, or does it reflect a culture that glorifies busyness? Having seen colleagues collapse, I lean towards the latter.
Student A: Exactly. Where does personal responsibility end and institutional duty begin?
Student B: Precisely that question, I suspect, is what policymakers should be debating. Recovery, after all, benefits everyone.
