According to experts, arctic sea ice has been shrinking by three percent each decade since the 1970s, and that shortens the season when polar bears can hunt seals.Polar bears are an important indicator to ge t an understanding of what’s happening in the Arctic. There are a lot of other species that will be affected by climate change and/or pollution, but when you look at it, polar bears are much easier to study in a lot of respects and we can catch the same individuals over a long period of time. We can follow them for many years and get good insights into what is happening.The impact of climate change on polar bears underscores the critical need to reduce carbon pollution, which is widely blamed for global warming. Experts now say if climate keeps getting hotter, in 100 years by the end of each summer, there will be no ice at all in the Arctic Ocean. In view of the worsening climatic situation, nations have signed and ratified the Kyoto Protocol on Climate Change. The Kyoto climate treaty requires all nations to reduce their carbon emissions so that the negative impact of climate change can be halted. It is the only global effort to fight climate change, and it is a good step forward in the right direction.After Listening1.how global warming is taking a serious toll2.reduce carbon pollution3.no ice at all in the Arctic Ocean4.fight climate changePart II Reading taskText AComprehensionPossible answers to content questions:1.Global warming.2.She discovered it was melting into the ocean.3.The complex meteorological processes associated with snow, permafrost and icemagnify the effects of global warming in the polar regions.4.It points to the fact that humanity has altered the climate.5.They mean that the weather is so changeable that there is no such thing as normalweather.6.It is a long-term shift in worldwide temperature.7.Worldwide temperatures climbed more than 1℉over the past century. Snowfields are disappearing from mountaintops around the globe. Coral reefs are dying off. Drought is the norm in parts of Asia and Africa. El Nino events are more frequent. The Arctic permafrost is starting to melt. Lakes and rivers in colder climates are freezing later and thawing earlier each year. Plants and animals are shifting their ranges, and migration patterns for animals are being disrupted.8.They can conclude that temperatures will keep going up.9.For one thing, with seas rising enormous areas of densely populated land wouldbecome uninhabitable. Hundreds of millions of people would have to migrate from unlivable regions. For another, rising seas, higher levels of urban ozone and warmer temperatures could all incur health hazards. Public health would suffer.10.Humans are at least partly responsible.11.They demonstrate that the last ice age came to an end not in the slow creep ofgeological time but in the quick pop of real time, with the entire planet abruptly warming in just three years. They try to prove the point that there has been not just climate change but also the even more alarming phenomenon of abrupt climate change.12.Although studies on global warming may not be enough to convince the naysayers,what seems certain is that the ranks of those skeptics are growing thinner.Text Analysis1.Parts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1-3 By citing the example of Shishmaref, the authorsintroduce the theme of the essay: global warming.Part Two Paras 4-10 The authors provide evidence from acrossAmerica and around the world in illustration of theimpact that climate change is having.Part Three Paras 11-14 The authors point out that if worldwide airtemperature continues to rise the consequenceswould be disastrous, and that the pace of climatechange may increase dramatically.Part Four Para 15 The authors conclude that it seems certain that thenumber of skeptics on global warming is gettingsmaller.2. Exposition4. Yes, the essay ends well by asserting the number of skeptics on global warming is growing smaller, thus highlighting the point that global warming has undoubtedly become a reality. In a way, the ending echoes the beginning, helping render the whole piece more coherent.Language Sense Enhancement1.1) densely populated 2) uninhabitable3) thrown into 4) migrate5) contaminate 6) respiratory7) widen the range 8) incidence9) adjusting 10) wildlifeVocabularyI 1.1) percentage 2) zone3) warmth 4) diverse5) widen 6) looked around7) in the face of 8) in perspective9) temperate 10) theoretical2.1) Its profits shrank from $5 million to $1.25 million in the last global financial crisis.2) They will have to adhere to the cultural norms of the organization in order to be successful with their database project.3) My hometown is/lies halfway in between Salk Lake City and Denver.4) I saw waves battering (against) the rocks at the bottom of the cliff.5) Flood waters washed away the only bridge connecting the village to the outside world.3.1) Your report on the new car park is fine, but why don't you beef it up with some figures?2) There is a wide variation among Internet providers in cost, features, software, reliability and customer service.3) Poverty is one of the reasons for the high incidence of crime in this neighborhood.4) I suggested we sing and dance for the elderly people in the nursing home, and all my roommates were in favor of my idea.5) Doctors who are compelled to work 36 hours at a stretch cannot possibly be fully efficient.4.1) Much of the loss of biodiversity currently being experienced is attributed to human activity. Natural extinction is being accelerated by human populations wiping out entire ecosystems for development and single crop farming. Destroying naturally diverse vegetation destroys the life sustained by that habitat. We already know the scary effects of deforestation on global warming, but do we stop to think about the thousands of animal and insect species that are dying off because of global warming?2) In August 2005, some scientists from esteemed scientific organizations predicted that a temperature increase of 2 °C above the pre-industrial level could trigger the melting of the Greenland ice sheet, which would have overwhelming consequences for sea levels and biodiversity. At the current level of climate change, this prediction could become a reality in 10-15 years.3) With huge amounts of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases in the atmosphere global surface temperature would rise to a great extent, thereby melting the north and south pole glaciers causing drought, and throwing agriculture into turmoil.The effects would be magnified if temperatures keep going up dramatically.5.1) think back to/on 2) think … over3) thought of 4) think of …as5) think up1) picked up 2) picked out3) picked up 4) picked on5) picks atII.

TranslationMost scientists no longer doubt that the world is warming up and that humanity has altered climate. They agree that the long-term effects of global warming will be disastrous for the planet and its inhabitants. What is more, climate change won’t be a smooth transition to a warmer world. Some regions will be greatly affected by abrupt climate changes. Enormous areas of densely populated land like coastal Florida would become uninhabitable. Hundreds of millions of residents would have to migrate to safer regions. Therefore, it is no surprise that global warming has made its way onto the agenda of world leaders.Part III Home Reading TaskText BComprehension Check1. b2. d3. c4. b5. b6. aTranslation北极的变化速度大大超过了几乎所有模拟试验的估计,这些模拟试验旨在展望,在与全球气候变暖有关的温室气体浓度不断提高时,北极将如何反应。

TranslationRobert Lee’s father’s life had been plagued by poor financial investments. He was jailed twice for unpaid debts and in the end was forced to fle e the country. Lee’s mother was the dominant force in shaping Lee’s personality. Against the poignant failure of her husband, she was determined that the tragedy should not be repeated in the life of her children.

全新版⼤学英语(第⼆版)综合教程5-Unit-6课后答案及课⽂翻译Unit6 Grant and Lee格兰特和李1865年4⽉9⽇,当尤利西兹·S·格兰特和罗伯特·E·李在弗吉尼亚州阿珀马特科斯县城⼀所不太⼤的房⼦的客厅⾥会⾯,商讨李所率的北弗吉尼亚军队投降条件时,美国⼈⽣活中⼀个伟⼤的篇章结束了,⼀个崭新的重要篇章开始了。
此⼆⼈是在实质上终⽌内战。
诚然,其他军队尚未投降,已失去主要⽀柱的逃亡的邦联政府仍将绝望地徒然挣扎数⽇,想法寻觅⽣机。
其实,在格兰特和李签署⽂件之时,⼀切都已结束。
他们拟定投降条件时⽤的那间⼩客厅成了见证美国史上强烈的戏剧性对照的场所。
这两位截然不同的将军都是强有⼒的⼈物,他们代表着两股相互冲突的⼒量的潮流,那两股潮流通过他们最终发⽣碰撞。
罗伯特·E·李所仰仗的信念是,古⽼的贵族观念或许能以某种⽅式继续存在下去,并左右美国⼈的⽣活。
李是弗吉尼亚州沿海低地⼈⽒,他的⽣活背景是家庭、⽂化、传统……,是被移植到这个正在形成⾃⾝的传说与神话的新世界的骑⼠时代。
他体现了从骑⼠和英格兰乡绅时代流传下来的⼀种⽣活⽅式。
美国是个⼀切从头开始的国度,信奉的只不过是⼀种颇为模糊的信念,即⼈⼈拥有平等的权利,在世间应有平等的机会,如此⽽已。
在这样⼀个国度⾥,李代表着这样⼀种情感,即社会结构中保留⼀种明显的不平等多少有利于⼈类社会。
理应存在⼀个拥有⼟地的有闲阶级;反过来,社会本⾝应以⼟地为本,视其为财富与势⼒的主要来源。
(根据这⼀理想)这样⼀个社会会造就⼀个对社会有着强烈责任感的阶级,他们不是为⾃⼰获利活着,⽽是为了承担⾃⼰的特权所赋予的重⼤责任活着。
国家从他们中觅得领导⼈员;国家可依靠他们产⽣更加⾼尚的价值观念——思想⽅⾯的,⾏为⽅⾯的,个⼈风度⽅⾯的—以求国兴德盛。
李体现了这⼀贵族理想的最⾼尚的部分。
拥有⼟地的贵族通过他获得存在的理由。

He is a short and heavily built man in his late fifties, with close-cropped white hair and a neat mustache. Y ou can easily pick him out from a lineup. He usually wears a grim expression on his face and seldom speaks to others unless spoken to. A year ago when he was introduced to us as our teacher of English, I said to myself, “Gosh, here comes a stern and harsh old man!”indeed, he did look like a Japanese officer in the movies that I had seen.My first impression of him totally changed after we had the first lesson with him. He was all smiles when talking to us. I still remember how he began his first class: Y ou guys have studied English for quite a number of years. Do you still need me to teach you English grammar and pronunciation? Definitely not. So from now on don’t call me “Teacher Ma”; call “Coach Ma” instead, for I am not a sage on the stage; I am a guide on the side.In class Coach Ma always shoots us thought-provoking questions. Whenever a student gives the right answer, he will stick out his thumb and chuckled out a musical “OK”; when he hears an unsatisfactory answer, he will shake his head while blinking his eyelids, as if to say, “Think hard!” in class we do m ost of the talking either in pairs or in groups while Coach Ma just paces around, listening and observing. He is the conductor while we are all performers in an orchestra.I like his teaching style a lot and often ask him for English books to read. Last Wednesday, before class began, Coach Ma came over and placed a package on my desk.“Happy birthday to you !” he whispered.I was surprise to find that it was a brand new English-English dictionary.“Use this one instead of your pocket English-Chinese dictionary.”“But how did you know it is my birthday today, Sir?”“I discovered the secret from one of the compositions you wrote,”I looked into his face. He wore the same grim expression as usual.。

Globalization has great implications for young Chinese. For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs. And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important. At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy. The Internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere. They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions. Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Text BComprehension check1.c2.a3.b4.b5.c6.dTranslation1.如果9/11有什么引人注目的地方,那就是恐怖主义者们来自世界上全球化程度最低、最不开放、融合程度最低的地方:沙特阿拉伯、也门、阿富汗和巴基斯坦西北部。

Study the paragraphs carefully and point out how smooth paragraph transition is achieved.Paragraphs 3,8,21,28,35,39Para 3: Para 3 is a one-sentence paragraph for emphasis. It serves as a transition, leading to discusions about life beyond earth.Para 8; Para 8 serves as another transition, moving from speculation to naming the field of researchPara 21: The first .sentence of the paragraph is a transitional sentence, leading to the Fermi parade and the four possibilities, and then to the exploration of Mars. That is, from assumption to explantion and exploration.Para 28: This paragraph serves as a transition from the previous idea of "two-decade funk" to the change of mood. The last part of the last sentence of the paragraph begins the shift to the new topic of meteorite.Para35: This paragraph has a double duty; one is to develop the idea put forward by Gibson; the other is to pave the way for Paras 36 and 37 by asking the two questions that will be answered in these two paragraphs.Para 39: posing questions at the end of a paragraph serves as transition. The question posed at the end of Para 39 serves this purpose and is expected to be answered in the following paragraphs.B.

The three sentences have a common contrasting pattern, by using "and yet" to introduce a contrast.2. Note the framing of ideas in the sentence. Thesuccinctness of the statement liesin the way the idea is formulated which is an expression difficult to imitate by non-native speakers and yet this is what they should aim at learning. It is another example of chiasmus.3. The author is using the phrase "full-scale invasion" in a humorous way, comparing the full-scale invasion . With one scientific instrument after another landing on the Mars,it is like the landing of an invasion army.4. The whole idea is contained in a statement with the following pattern: they don't wonder why they are... they wonder why they aren't. The author use negative and positive element in a reversed way in the two parts of this statement, which makes the ideas stand out and the sentence more humorous.5. This is an inverted sentence with purpose of smooth transition and emphatic effect, so that the word “evidence" which the author wants to stress comes at the end of the sentence and stands out.6. What Lowell really said is a criticism of the wars and other conflicts among people (nations on Earth.7. The word "alas" should have expressed sorrow, pity or regret. Yet the author here is using it in a mocking way8. There is a contrast in this sentence: fantastic triumph is pitted against a two-decade funk. The way the idea in the second half of the sentence is expressed is worth noticing. The author uses "the absence of detectable life" but not "the absence of life" to show so far no life has been detected. The reason may be that the instrument only collected information about the surface.9. Inversion is used here for both better connection of the two sentences and emphasis.10. The author is being humorous when he says "thisseemingly minor deficiency".11. The author is being sarcastic here. He means that humans have brains but with brains, there come wars, pollution, man-made disasters. In that case, the world may be better off if humans have had brains of our kind.

Part I Listening TaskScript for the recording:The meeting at Appomattox in 1865, at which General Robert E. Lee surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant, effectively ended the American Civil War. It has gone down in history as one of the great moments in the making of America. The account you are about to listen to gives an eyewitness account of the event.When we entered the room, we found General Grant sitting at a table in the center of the room, and Lee sitting beside a small table near the front window. The contrast between the two commanders was striking. General Grant was five feet eight inches in height. His hair and full beard were a nut-brown, without a trace of gray in them. His boots and portions of his clothes were spattered with mud. He had no sword, and a pair of shoulder-straps was all there was about him to show his rank. Lee, on the other hand, was fully six feet in height, and he was Grant's senior by sixteen years. His hair and full beard were silver-gray and quite thick. He wore a new uniform of Confederate gray, buttoned up to the throat, and at his side he carried a long sword of fine workmanship.General Grant began the conversation: "I met you once before, General Lee, while we were serving in Mexico. I have always remembered your appearance, and I think I should have recognized you anywhere." "Yes," replied General Lee, "I know I met you on that occasion, and I have often thought of it and tried to recollect how you looked, but I have never been able to recall a single feature." The two generals talked a bit more about Mexico and moved on to a discussion of the terms of the surrender.Lee asked Grant to commit the terms to paper. "Very well," replied General Grant, "I will write them out." He opened the order-book on the table before him and proceeded to write the terms. He wrote very rapidly, and after finishing the last sentence, he handed the document to Lee. Lee reviewed it and informed Grant that the Cavalry men and Artillery men in the Confederate Army owned their horses and asked that they keep them. Grant agreed and Lee wrote a letter formally accepting the surrender. Then Lee shook hands with General Grant, bowed to the other officers, and left the room. While his horse was being bridled, the general stood on the lowest step and gazed sadly in the direction of the valley beyond where his army lay — now an army of prisoners.After Listening1.appearance; dress;striking2.Mexico; the terms of the surrender3.their horses4.army of prisonersPart II Reading taskComprehensionPossible answers to content questions:1.The author sees the encounter of Generals Grant and Lee at Appomattox as thebeginning of a new chapter in American history.2.He thinks General Lee represented the privileged land-owning class.3.Human society should have a pronounced inequality in the social structure. Thereshould be a leisure class, backed by ownership of land. Society itself should be keyed to the land as the chief source of wealth and influence.4.The country should be ruled by a class of men with a strong sense of obligation tothe community, who lived not to gain advantage for themselves, but to meet the solemn obligations which had been laid on them by the very fact that they were privileged.5.General Grant was the son of a tanner on the Western frontier.6.They cherished democracy most. No man was born to anything, and life wascompetition. They had a deep sense of belonging to a national community. They thought that their financial success was closely related to the development of their country.7.They viewed privileges as those each man had won for himself.8.Because everything the Westerner lived by was tied to growth, expansion, and aconstantly widening horizon. What he lived by would survive or fall with the nation itself.9.They represented two diametrically opposed elements in American life. Grant wasthe modern man emerging.10.Because Grant represented the emerging class that would usher in the great age ofsteel and machinery in the future in the New World.11.He depicts Lee as a man who might have ridden down from the old age of chivalry,lance in hand, silken banner fluttering over his head.12.Each man was the perfect champion of his cause, drawing both his strengths andhis weaknesses from the people he led. They were marvelous fighters. Each man had the great virtue of utter tenacity and fidelity. They had daring and resourcefulness and the ability to think faster and move faster than the enemy. And the greatest similarity between them was the ability to turn quickly from war to peace once the fighting was over.Text Analysis1.Parts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1- 2 The Appomattox meeting brought the Civil War to its virtual end.

Asked about the underlying reasons for the great success, he said, "To begin with, it's the two orientations that characterize the culture of this company: cooperative with regard to making decisions, and trusting in relation to fellow workers. Every employee has a strong sense of obligation to the company and boundless enthusiasm for the work."2) Most chapters of this book are dedicated to the effects of games on children. According to the author, in performing and observing actions, like the collision of two objects, babies can have first-hand experience of the relations implicit in the phenomena. And team sports can help to shape children's personality in a positive way, because they can learn how to cooperate with each other in the competition.3) Martin Luther King and Rosa Parker had a lot in common.

TranslationRobert Lee’s father’s life had been plagued by poor financial investments. He was jailed twice for unpaid debts and in the end was forced to flee the country. Lee’s mother was the dominant force in shaping Lee’s personality. Against the poignant failure of her husband, she was determined that the tragedy should not be repeated in the life of her children. Self-control, a sense of obligation and an indomitable spirit were the virtues she taught Lee. In 1825, with an aspiration to win back the family honor, Lee began studying at West Point Military Academy. This began a new chapter of his life. Over the four years, he consistently finished near the top of every course. Part III Home Reading TaskText BComprehension Check1. d2. d3. d4. b5. c6. cTranslation1863年7月联邦军队在葛底斯堡和维科斯堡的胜利标志着战争的一个转折点。
