Unit4 Colors and Mood Talk about the pictures： What can you see? How many colors can you see? What is she doing? What’s this on the big tree?What does it mean in America? 1971年10月14日《纽约邮报》刊登了一片文章说：长途汽车上坐着一位沉默不语的男子，看上去忧心忡忡，在热心乘客的追问下，他终于开口了，原来他刚从监狱释放出来，在之前，他曾给妻子写过一封信，信中说：如果她有了新的归宿，他也不责怪她；如果她还爱着他，愿意他回去，就在镇口的老橡树上系上一条黄丝带，如果没有黄丝带，他会随车而去，永远不再打扰她……汽车快到目的地了，远远望去，镇口的老橡树上挂着几十上百条黄丝带，车上的乘客都欢呼起来，为这位男子高兴。 这个动人的故事被写成了歌曲， 伴着这歌声这个故事传遍了全世界，黄丝带也成了美国 “欢迎被囚禁的人重获自由” 的标志。 黄丝带，是亲人离散后的求助标志，也是为亲人祈祷的祝福标识。据了解，汶川地震后，福建都市生活广播电台筹集了万余条黄丝带，并于当天将数千条黄丝带派发出去。 意义： 黄丝带象征的意义不同，主要用于等待久违的亲人归来。或象征反战，期待远赴战场的亲人早日归来。或是原谅有前科的罪犯，再次接纳，给予其机会。 Reading: Color Association Fast reading (3-5mins.) 1.
