Unit 1 How to Improve Your Study Habits你也许是个智力一般的普通学生。
你在学校的学习成绩还不错,可你也许会觉得自己永远也成不了优等生。
然而实际情况未必如此。
你要是想取得更好的分数,也还是能做到的。
是的,即使中等智力水平的学生,在不增加学习负担的情况下,也能成为优等生。
其诀窍如下:1.仔细安排你的时间。
把你每周要完成的任务一一列出来,然后制定一张时间表或时间分配图。
先把用于吃饭、睡觉、开会、听课等这样一些非花不可的时间填上,然后再选定合适的固定时间用于学习。
一定要留出足够的时间来完成正常的阅读和课外作业。
当然,学习不应把作息表上的空余时间全都占去,还得给休息、业余爱好和娱乐活动留出一定的时间,这一点很重要。
这张周作息表也许解决不了你所有的问题,但是它会使你比较清楚地了解你是怎样使用你的时间的。
此外,它还能让你安排好各种活动,既有足够的时间工作,也有足够的时间娱乐。
2.寻找一个合适的地方学习。
选定某个地方作为你的“学习区”。
这可以是家里或者学校图书馆里的一张书桌或者一把椅子,但它应该是舒适的,而且不该有干扰。
在你开始学习时,你应能够全神贯注于你的功课。
3.阅读之前先略读。
这就是说,在你仔细阅读一篇文章之前,先把它从头至尾迅速浏览一遍。
在预习材料时,你就对它的内容及其结构有了大致的了解。
随后在你正式开始阅读时,你就能辨认出不太重要的材料,并且可以略去某些章节不读。
略读不仅使你的阅读速度提高一倍,还有助于提高你的理解能力。
<4.充分利用课堂上的时间。
上课时注意听讲意味着课后少花力气。
要坐在能看得见、听得清的地方。
要作笔记来帮助自己记住老师讲课的内容。
5.学习要有规律。
课后要及早复习笔记。
重温课堂上提到的要点,复习你仍然混淆不清的地方。
阅读教科书上讲到这些内容的有关章节。
如果你知道第二天老师要讲述的内容,那你就把这部分材料浏览一下。
这有助于你听懂下一堂课。
如果你定期复习笔记和课本,你就能更深刻地领会这些材料的内容,你的记忆也会保持得更长久。

Unit1 A篇学无止境 故事发生在一所东部大学里。
那是终考的最后一天。
一幢教学楼的台阶上围着一群大四的工科生,都在谈论即刻就要开始的考试。
他们脸上都带着自信。
这是毕业前的最后一场考试了,考完后,即是毕业典礼。
然后他们将各奔前程。
话题转到了工作上,有的谈起了找好的工作,有的则谈论着要找的工作。
4年的大学学习给了他们自信,使他们觉得自己足以征服世界。
眼前这场考试,不过是一碟小菜罢了。
老师已经说过可以携带所需的任何书本或笔记,只要不在考试时交头接耳就行了。
学生们兴高采烈地步入教室。
试卷发下来了。
看到只有5道论述题,他们一个个脸笑上开了花。
3小时过去后,老师开始收卷。
学生们先前的那份自信再也看不到了,而是满脸惊慌。
老师握着试卷,面对全班,大家都沉默不语。
她扫了一眼眼前这一张张不安的脸,问道:"5道题全答完的有多少?" 没人举手。
"做完4道的有多少?" 还是没人举手。
"3道呢?两道呢?" 学生们再也坐不住了。
"那么一道呢?总有做完一道的吧。
" 教室里依然鸦雀无声。
老师搁下试卷,说道:"这我早料到了。
" "我只是想让你们牢牢记住,即使你们已经完成了4年工科学习,这个领域你们还有很多东西要学。
其实,你们答不出的这些问题在日常生活中很常见。
"她笑了笑,接着说,"这门课你们都能通过,但要记住,你们虽然已经大学毕业,但学习才刚刚开始。
" 多年后,我已忘了这位老师的姓名,但牢牢记住了她的教诲。
B篇回眸大学 4年的时光已经过去,这一刻终于来临了。
不到两周,我就要毕业了。
此刻回想起来,我仍不敢相信时光飞逝如斯。
我依然记得第一天去上课时的情景,我一边望着课表背面的地图,一边打听教学楼在哪儿。
现在我已是大四的学生,常会以羡慕的眼光看着一年级的新生。
每天我都祈愿时间会凝滞,接下来的两周过得更慢一些。

Book OneUnit OnePassage OneDirections: You will have 10 minutes to read this passage quickly and answer the following questions from A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Chinese AlcoholAn important part of Chinese culture, the use of alcohol can be traced back to the dawn of the nation’s history. Over the centuries many different kinds of alcoholic drinks have been developed and brewing (酿造) methods as well as distillation (蒸馏) has become more sophisticated. At the same time the way of enjoying these desirable products has become a vital part of custom and culture.Alcoholic beverages have inspired many writers resulting in thousands of poems and other works relating to “the magic elixir” (长生不老药). People drink it when they are joyous and for fun. No formal dinner would be complete without it, while a toast can seal a business enterprise, send troops into battle with a prayer for victory as well as express a wish for the health and happiness of family and friends. One of the classic examples of the ceremonial use of alcohol is described in the famous story Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The three heroes in the tale, become blood brothers by drinking bowls of wine into which they have mixed drops of their own blood from cuts in their fingers. This act may seem extreme but was a symbol of faithfulness in those days.The symbolic serving and drinking of wine on various occasions and in different places can convey many meanings. It can express either joy or sorrow. In China, there is a saying that “a thousand cups of wine is not too much when bosom friends meet together”, which indicates the happiness between two close friends; whereas a poem by Li Bai, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907), says, “releasing melancholy by wine, but adding more,” suggested a touch of sadness. There are frequent references to wine in well-known legends, as for example—“to taste the sweet osmanthus (木犀属植物) wine on the moon, produced by the beautiful fairy Chang’e when she felt lonely, is everyone’s dream”.Nearly all important occasions are celebrated with alcohol. The Spring Festival, which is a favorite time for family party, is probably one of the most meaningful when happiness is expressed by social drinking. During the Double Ninth Festival, people drink chrysanthemum (菊花) wine to drive away the evil and to wish their elders good health and long life. Of course, no wedding ceremony is complete unless the happy couple expresses their love for each other by linking their arms to drink to their future happiness (jiaobeijiu), after which they offer a dutiful toast to their parents to thank them for the care they have given to them as children. Similarly, birthday celebrations and the ceremony to mark the 100th day following the birth of a baby will be celebrated with a toast of wine. In South China, when a baby girl is born, her parents will brew alcohol for her, bury it underground and keep it until she marries. Then they take the jar up and paint pleasant pictures upon it to give greetings.Each ethnic group has some form of alcoholic drink with which to celebrate special festivals.For example, around the Spring Festival, Korean people drink their “suijiu” to which they add rice, root of the balloon flower, cinnamon (肉桂) and, red chili and so on, to protect themselves from demons.When drinking wine at table, both the host and the guests are expected to follow certain rules of manners and behavior.The glass should be full of wine, or else the guest will think they are lacking due respect. The elders and superior person or persons present should always be served first.A toast represents respect, while refusing to participate in a toast shows a lack of politeness or respect. Should a guest be really unable to take a drink, he has to find another to do it for him in order to save face.When making a toast, everyone is required to stand and lightly touch each others’ cup, ensuring that the junior’s cup is held lower than that of their superior. The cup should be emptied and inverted to show that no wine remains. Drinking with a single draught symbolizes courage. Those who cannot manage to do so should explain in advance in order to receive a kindly understanding of their situation and thus ensure that no one is offended.(714 words) Questions1. Chinese alcohol .A) has a history more than a centuryB) is developing rapidlyC) is enjoyed in more sophisticated ways than the westernersD) is an important part of Chinese culture2. The act of the three heroes in Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a symbol of inthose days.A) faithfulness B) courage C) happiness D) willingness3. Li Bai’s poem mentioned in the third paragraph expresses .A) sadness B) joy C) loneliness D) sorrow4. parents will brew alcohol for their baby girl for future use.A) During the Spring Festival B) In South ChinaC) On the wedding ceremony D) During the Double Ninth Festival5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned when people make a toast?A) E veryone is required to stand and lightly touch each others’ cup.B) The elders and superiors should hold the cups higher.C) People should ensure that the junior’s cup is held lower than that of their superior.D) Those who cannot drink with a single draught should explain in advance.Notes1. Romance of the Three Kingdoms:《三国演义》Passage TwoDirections: In this part,y ou will have 10 minutes to go over the passage quickly and decide questions 1-8 according to the passage. If it is true you fill “T” in theparenthesis, if not or false fill “F” in parenthesis before the sentence.Zhang Yimou—A Creative GeniusOn the eighth day of the eighth month of 2008, 2 billion TV viewers and thousands in attendance in the now famous Bird’s Nest enjoyed an unforgettable sight at the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympic Games.Behind it all was the creative genius of Chinese film director Zhang Yimou. Drawing from the depths of the Chinese culture and creativity of the Chinese people, showing ancient Chinese inventions—paper, printing, gunpowder, ceramics and the compass—that have shaped civilization and channeling the sensibility and spirit that unite his fellow 1.3 billion citizens, Zhang told China’s story to a watching world. He created arguably the grandest sight of the new millennium, and it was viewed by nearly one-third of the world’s population. With this work, Zhang obtained a high position shared by very few film directors in the world.In telling China’s story, Zhang explored the Chinese character he, or peaceful harmony—an ideal extremely important to Chinese culture. This level of creative artistry is rare in the controlled field of filmmaking, let alone in a multidimensional arena (多维的舞台) with thousands of performers and visual set pieces that seemed to be impossible—yet it was all happening live, before the eyes of the world.There is much legend surrounding Zhang’s rise to his world fame, given that his first job was as a farmhand and then a laborer in a cotton mill. But the story I enjoy most is that he gave blood over a period of months to earn enough money to buy his first camera. He was 25. When the Beijing Film Academy reopened in 1978 after the Cultural Revolution, he was 27, already considered too old to become a filmmaker and lacking many of the necessary credits. Bravely, he offered his photographic works and was admitted to the department of cinematography.Zhang became a filmmaker, and for the past two decades, he has inspired the world’s interest with China through his films. Not since the great British director Michael Powell has a director used color so effectively to tell stories. In Red Sorghum(1987), Ju Dou(1990) and one of his greatest works, Raise the Red Lantern (1991), the vivid use of red in the manufacturing of wine, the traditional wedding gown, the process of dyeing silk and even the dark red splashes of blood illuminate Zhang’s celebration of life, exoticism and death. Ju Dou was the first Chinese film to be nominated for an Academy Award; Raise the Red Lantern was the second.Zhang also brought the actress Gong Li to prominence, casting her in starring roles in six of his films. Together they are credited with introducing sensuality and eroticism to Chinese cinema. Western audiences are probably familiar with Zhang more from his action films: Hero(2002), House of Flying Daggers (2004) and his most Shakespearean work, Curse of the Golden Flower (2006).Zhang was no stranger to live theatrical events either. In 1998 he staged and directed Puccini’s opera Turandot at the Forbidden City in Beijing. He directed a folk musical in 2003 and staged it outdoors on the Li River. In 2006 he direct ed Tan Dun’s The First Emperor for New York City’s Metropolitan Opera.All this work and its complexity should have prepared me for the depth and breadth of Zhang’s vision, apparent even in its early stages wh en he first met me in 2005 about the Beijing ceremonies. We met on a sunny afternoon in East Hampton, New York, and I knew immediately we were going to become good friends. With the description of his idea on his computer, he showed me what he was thinking. I realized Zhang would be the creator-director of the Olympic ceremonies, with the honor of putting on what would become the greatest show on earth, with China at center stage. I was honored to have been one of the first people inspired by Zhang’s ideas.At the heart of Zhang’s Olympic ceremonies was the idea that the conflict of man foretells the desire for inner peace. This theme is one he’s explored and perfected in his films, whether they are about the lives of humble peasants or great nobles. This year he captured the theme of harmony and peace, which is the spirit of the Olympic Games. In one evening of visual and emotional splendor, he educated, enlightened and entertained us all. In doing so, Zhang secured himself a place in world history.(746 words) True or False( ) 1. The Beijing ceremonies showed the Chinese culture, creativity of the Chinese people and the quick development of China to the world.( ) 2.

For questions 1-7, mark Y (for YES) if the statement agrees withthe information given in the passage. N (for NO) if the statement contradicts theinformation given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is notgiven in the passage.The Mystery of StonehengeFor hundreds of years people have wondered about Stonehenge (英国的史前巨石柱), the great circle of huge stones on the Salisbury Plains in southern England. Who built it? How did they do it? And, most puzzling of all, why?The word Stonehenge means “the hanging stones.” We do not know who gave the place this name, but it is a good one. Some of the stone pillars (柱子) still stand, just as they did almost 4, 000 years ago. Across the top of a few of the pillars, connecting one to another, are smaller stones that seem to hang in space.Some people thought that Stonehenge was an old Roman temple. Others said that it was the work of Merlin, the wizard of King Arthur’s court. Still others said that it was built by Druids, religious leaders of the people who lived in England not long before the time of Jesus. In each case, people suggested the earliest groups that they knew about. Today we know more about prehistoric times, and we do not put Stonehenge into the earliest period we know.Scientists have done a great deal of digging at Stonehenge and at hundreds of other old stone circles around the English countryside. Joining each small piece of information together, they came up with a remarkable story.About 2300 B.C. a group of people came from the European continents to what is now England. The people in England before them lived by hunting, but the newcomers were farmers and herders. Using deer antlers (鹿角) for picks, they built huge round corrals (畜栏) with sides of heaped earth.About 2000 B. C. another group of people came from Europe. They began to use the corrals as temples and meeting places. Around 1850 B. C. these people started work on what was to become Stonehenge.About 150 years later a third group of people arrived. They have been called the Beaker people because much of their pottery (陶器) looked like the containers called beakers that chemists use.The Beakers became very wealthy and began to build up Stonehenge. They added a huge avenue to the circle and decided to bring stone blocks from Wales to place inside the circle.They chose eighty stones that weigh up to 5, 400 kilograms (six tons) each. As far as we know, these people had no wheels or animals to carry loads. They had to pull the stones by using large round wood as rollers. The Beakers must have taken the stones most of the way by water. It would be far easier to float them on rafts than to drag them over the hilly country. But a raft big enough to carry such stones on the ocean would be too big to travel up English rivers. The stones must have gone upriver on dugout canoes (独木舟), probably on two or three canoes roped together.How were these huge stones shaped and polished? Large stone hammers have been found atStonehenge. The workers must have heated a rock with torches where they wished to make a cut. Then if they poured cold water on the hot rock, the stone would be weakened and would break smoothly when cut with the hammers. The final shaping and polishing were done by teams of workers who struck the stone again and again and pulled grinders (研磨的机械) over it.Now the stones were ready to be put into place. The workers should use a strong machine to lift a fallen stone back on top of two others. But the builders of Stonehenge had only wood and leather rope. With these alone they set huge stones upright and lifted others to the tops of the columns.The biggest question about Stonehenge, its purpose, is still asked. Careful study has shown that different arrangements of the stones line up with twenty-four separate points. It was found that the sun and moon rose and set in different seasons in the years around 1500 B.C. By standing in different places, the builders could predict when the sun and moon would rise or set in winter or summer. Other studies show that the stones may have been used to predict things that happen in the sky.One thing is sure, though. Stonehenge will continue to attract people even if its mysteries are solved. The more we learn about it, the more remarkable it seems.(726 words) Questions( ) 1. The Stonehenge in southern England has aroused people’s great interest.( ) 2. Stonehenge has a history as long as 2, 300 years.( ) 3. Druids was religious leaders of the people in England not long after the time of Jesus. ( ) 4. The Beakers must have taken the stones most of the way on dugout canoes.( ) 5. People now doubt whether the builders in the ancient time were able to set huge stones upright and lifted others to the tops of the columns with only wood and leather ropes. ( ) 6. Study has shown that different arrangements of the stones line up with twenty-four separate points.( ) 7. The mystery of Stonehenge has already solved completely.Fill in the blanks8. The meaning of the word Stonehenge is ________________.9. The corrals were used as temples and meeting places in about ________________.10. It was who began to build up Stonehenge in around 1700 B.C.Passage FourDirections: In this part, you will have15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions. For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A),B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information givenin the passage.The Need for Environmental AssessmentEconomic, social and environmental change is closely related to development. While development aims to bring about positive change, it can also lead to conflicts. In the past, the promotion of economic growth meant people had a chance to enjoy better life; however, people were not aware there might be negative social or environmental impacts (影响). The need to avoid negative impacts and to ensure long term benefits led to the concept of sustainable development (可持续发展). This has become accepted as a key characteristic of development, if the aim of increased happy life and greater equity in satisfying basic needs is to be met for this and future generations.In order to predict environmental impacts of any development activity and to provide an opportunity to decrease negative impacts and improve positive impacts, the environmental impact assessment (EIA) procedure was developed in the 1970s. An EIA may be explained as:a formal process to predict the environmental effects of human development activities and to plan appropriate measures to get rid of or reduce negative impacts and to increase positive effects.EIA thus has three main functions:• to predict problems,• to find ways to avoid them, and• to improve positive effects.The third function is of particular importance. The EIA provides a unique opportunity to find ways in which the environment may be improved as part of the development process. The EIA also predicts the conflicts and limits between the suggested project, or program and its environment. It provides an opportunity for mitigation (缓解) measures to be taken to minimize problems. It enables monitoring programs to be set up to assess future impacts and provide data on which managers can take wiser decisions to avoid environmental damage.EIA is a management tool for planners and decision makers and complements (补充) other project studies on engineering and economics. Environmental assessment is now accepted as a key part of development planning and management. It should become as familiar and important as economic analysis in project assessment.The aim of any EIA should be to promote sustainable development. Beneficial environmental effects are maximized while negative effects are improved or avoided to the greatest possible extent. EIA will help select and design projects, programs or plans with long term development and therefore improve cost effectiveness.It is important that an EIA is not just considered as part of the approval process. Many reports produced for such a purpose, which are neither read nor acted upon, will lower the value of the process. A key output of the EIA should be an action plan to be followed during implementation (实施) and after implementation during the monitoring stage. To enable the action plan to be effective, the EIA may also recommend changes to laws and institutional structures.In the beginning EIA was seen by some project promoters as a limit to development but this view is gradually disappearing. It can, however, be a useful limit to unsustainable development. It is now well understood that environment and development are complementary and depend on each other, and EIA is a technique for ensuring that the two can reinforce each other. A study carried out by the Environmental Protection Agency (USA) in 1980 showed that there were significant changes to projects during the EIA process, obvious improvements in both environmental protection measures and financial benefits. Irrigated agriculture is such a good example.Irrigated agriculture is extremely important to the economy, health and welfare of a very large part of the developing world. It is too important to be ignored as it is vital for world food security. However, irrigated agriculture often greatly changes land use and is a major consumer of freshwater. Irrigation development thus has a major impact on the environment. All new irrigation and drainage (排水) development results in some form of degradation (退化). It is necessary to determine the acceptable level and to compensate (补偿) for the degradation. This degradation may extend both upstream and downstream of the irrigated area. The impacts may be both to the natural, physical environment and to the human environment,and large irrigation and drainage developments is environmentally sensitive.An EIA is concerned both with impacts of irrigation and drainage on the environment and with the sustainable development of irrigation and drainage itself. Clearly an EIA will not resolve all problems. There will be balances between economic development and environmental protection as in all development activities. However, without an objective EIA, reasonable decision making would be impossible.(743 words) Questions1. In the past, __________________.A) economy grew slowlyB) people didn’t know economic development might have negative social or environmentalimpactsC) people tried to predict environmental impacts of any development activityD) people enjoyed better life2. Sustainable development _____________.A) has become accepted as a key characteristic of developmentB) means quicker economic developmentC) lowers economic developmentD) aims to satisfy people’s basic needs3. Which of the following is not the mains function of EIA?A) To improve positive effects.B) To predict the possible problems.C) To plan appropriate measures.D) To find ways to avoid the possible problems.4. EIA aims _____________.A) to improve beneficial effectsB) to avoid negative effects completelyC) to benefit the present generationD) to sustainable development5. _________will lower the value of the EIA process.A) That EIA is just considered as part of the approval processB) Focusing on economic developmentC) Quick economic developmentD) The changes to laws and institutional structures6. EIA is now well understood that ___________.A) it is a technique for ensuring quick developmentB) it is a technique for ensuring environmental protectionC) it is a technique for ensuring that environment and development can reinforce each otherD) it is still a limit to development7. A study by the Environmental Protection Agency in 1980 showed________.A) environmental protection measures are improvedB) financial benefits are improvedC) neither environmental protection measures and financial benefits are improvedD) both environmental protection measures and financial benefits are improvedFill in the blanks8. change may have a strong effect on development.9. _____________ is very important to the economy, health and welfare of a very large part ofthe developing world.10.

A Country of Immigrants一个移民国家As you walk along the street in any American city, you see many different faces. You see oriental faces, black faces, and white faces. These are the faces of the United States, a country of immigrants from all over the world. Immigrants are people who leave one country to live permanently in another country.当你沿着街道走在美国任何城市,你会看很多不同的面孔。
你会看到东方(黄种人)的面孔,黑种人的面孔和白种人的面孔。
这些是一个来自世界各地移民而来的美国的面孔。
这些移民者离开一个国家然后永久居住在另外一个国家。
The first immigrants came to North America in the 1600s from northern European countries such as England and Holland. These people generally had light skin and light hair. They came to live in North America because they wanted religious freedom. In the 1700s and early 1800s immigrants continued to move from Europe to the United States. At this time there was one group of unwilling immigrants, black Africans. These people were tricked or forced to come to the United States, where they worked on the large farms in the south. The blacks had no freedom; they were slaves. In the 1800s many Chinese and Irish immigrants came to the United States. They came because of economic or political problems in their countries. The most recent immigrants to the United States, the Indochinese, Cubans, and Central Americans also came because of economic or political problems in their own countries. Except for the blacks, most of these immigrants thought of the United States as a land of opportunity, of a chance for freedom and new lives.第一批移民者来到北美洲的北部是17世纪的北欧国家,比如英国和荷兰。

UNIT 1As we are at the start of the course, this seems a good moment to offer some advice on how to make the task of learning English easier.课程开始之际,就如何使学习英语的任务更容易提出一些建议似乎正当其时。
Some Strategies for Learning EnglishLearning English is by no means easy. It takes great diligence and prolonged effort.学习英语绝非易事。
它需要刻苦和长期努力。
Nevertheless, while you cannot expect to gain a good command of English without sustained hard work, there are various helpful learning strategies you can employ to make the task easier. Here are some of them.虽然不经过持续的刻苦努力便不能期望精通英语,然而还是有各种有用的学习策略可以用来使这一任务变得容易一些。
以下便是其中的几种。
1. Do not treat all new words in exactly the same way. Have you ever complained about your memory because you find it simply impossible to memorize all the new words you are learning? But, in fact, it is not your memory that is at fault. If you cram your head with too many new words at a time, some of them are bound to be crowded out. What you need to do is to deal with new words in different ways according to how frequently they occur in everyday use. While active words demand constant practice and useful words must be committed to memory, words that do not often occur in everyday situations require just a nodding acquaintance. You will find concentrating on active and useful words the most effective route to enlarging your vocabulary.1. 不要以完全同样的方式对待所有的生词。
大学英语快速阅读1TheEarth27sAtmosphere带翻译

Unless it's raining or the wind is blowing, we don't usually pay much attention to the atmosphere, the blanket of air that surrounds the Earth. Yet, without the atmosphere, the Earth would be a desolate (荒芜的) planet with no signs of life!The atmosphere plays several roles in helping to make life possible. First, theatmosphere provides the three gases necessary for life: oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. All animals, including ourselves, breathe oxygen. Nitrogen and carbon dioxide are both needed for plant growth. Less important atmospheric gases include argon, neon, helium, and hydrogen.Second, the atmosphere also protects us from most of the sun's high-energy ultraviolet light rays, which are harmful tolife. Although these rays are only a small part of the sunlight striking the Earth, they are known to be very dangerous. However, 99 percent of all ultraviolet rays are absorbed before they reach the Earth's surface. They are absorbed by an atmospheric gas, called ozone, a type of oxygen gas. The ozone layer surrounds the Earth but is much thinner over the North and South Poles than over other regions of the Earth.The one percent of the ultraviolet light in the atmosphere that does reach the Earth's surface is known to cause sunburn and is now believed to also cause skin cancer in many people.Because of this, doctors recommend that people limit the amount of time they spend in direct sunlight and wear a suntan lotion ( 防晒油) that blocks the ultraviolet rays when they do sunbathe.Finally, the atmosphere generates all types of weather such as clear blue skies and storms. It acts as a huge energy machine, changing sunlight into other forms of energy such as heat and wind. As part of this role, the atmosphere regulates the temperature on the Earth's surface. First it allows only 46 percent of the sunlight striking it to pass through and actually reach the Earth's surface.

UNIT 1As we are at the start of the course, this seems a good moment to offer some advice on how to make the task of learning English easier.课程开始之际,就如何使学习英语的任务更容易提出一些建议似乎正当其时。
Some Strategies for Learning EnglishLearning English is by no means easy. It takes great diligence and prolonged effort.学习英语绝非易事。
它需要刻苦和长期努力。
Nevertheless, while you cannot expect to gain a good command of English without sustained hard work, there are various helpful learning strategies you can employ to make the task easier. Here are some of them.虽然不经过持续的刻苦努力便不能期望精通英语,然而还是有各种有用的学习策略可以用来使这一任务变得容易一些。
以下便是其中的几种。
1. Do not treat all new words in exactly the same way. Have you ever complained about your memory because you find it simply impossible to memorize all the new words you are learning? But, in fact, it is not your memory that is at fault. If you cram your head with too many new words at a time, some of them are bound to be crowded out. What you need to do is to deal with new words in different ways according to how frequently they occur in everyday use. While active words demand constant practice and useful words must be committed to memory, words that do not often occur in everyday situations require just a nodding acquaintance. You will find concentrating on active and useful words the most effective route to enlarging your vocabulary.1. 不要以完全同样的方式对待所有的生词。
大学英语快速阅读1The Earth's Atmosphere带翻译

Unless it's raining or the wind is blowing, we don't usually pay much attention to the atmosphere, the blanket of air that surrounds the Earth. Yet, without the atmosphere, the Earth would be a desolate (荒芜的) planet with no signs of life!The atmosphere plays several roles in helping to make life possible. First, theatmosphere provides the three gases necessary for life: oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. All animals, including ourselves, breathe oxygen. Nitrogen and carbon dioxide are both needed for plant growth. Less important atmospheric gases include argon, neon, helium, and hydrogen.Second, the atmosphere also protects us from most of the sun's high-energy ultraviolet light rays, which are harmful tolife. Although these rays are only a small part of the sunlight striking the Earth, they are known to be very dangerous. However, 99 percent of all ultraviolet rays are absorbed before they reach the Earth's surface. They are absorbed by an atmospheric gas, called ozone, a type of oxygen gas. The ozone layer surrounds the Earth but is much thinner over the North and South Poles than over other regions of the Earth.The one percent of the ultraviolet light in the atmosphere that does reach the Earth's surface is known to cause sunburn and is now believed to also cause skin cancer in many people.Because of this, doctors recommend that people limit the amount of time they spend in direct sunlight and wear a suntan lotion ( 防晒油) that blocks the ultraviolet rays when they do sunbathe.Finally, the atmosphere generates all types of weather such as clear blue skies and storms. It acts as a huge energy machine, changing sunlight into other forms of energy such as heat and wind. As part of this role, the atmosphere regulates the temperature on the Earth's surface. First it allows only 46 percent of the sunlight striking it to pass through and actually reach the Earth's surface. Second, carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere controls theamount of warmth on the Earth's surface that is allowed to radiate ( 发散) back into space. By these two controlling devices, the atmosphere regulates the Earth's surface temperature.Choose the best answers to the following questions.1.Which of the following is trueaccording tothe passage?A.The ozone layer is much thicker over North America than over the North Pole.B.Ozone is a type of a nitrogen gas.C.Ozone can absorb some ultraviolet rays before they reach the Earth's surface.D.Ozone can protect us from anything harmful to our life.2.The main idea of the third paragraph isthat __ .A.the Earth is surrounded by a layer of ozoneB.99 percent of all ultraviolet light rays that reach the Earth's surface are absorbed by the ozone layerC.the o zone layer protects people from the sun's high-energy ultraviolet light raysD.ozone is an atmospheric gaswhich surrounds the Earth3.According to the article, carbon dioxide ________________________A.is a less important atmospheric gasB.controls the amount of warmth onthe Earth's surfaceC.allows only 46 percent of sunlightto reach the Earth's surfaceD.acts l ike a huge energy machine4.Doctors suggest that ______ .A.people should stay away from the sunlight to protect themselves from the sunburnB.people should block the ultraviolet rays when they do sunbatheC.people should wear a suntan lotion under direct sunlightD.people should know that skin cancer results from sunbathing5.

大学英语1英语课文翻译IntroductionIn this article, we will provide a translation of an English text that is frequently used as a lesson in a college-level English course. The translation aims to accurately convey the meaning of the original text while maintaining readability and coherence.Text Translation原文:The Value of a College EducationA widely debated topic today is whether college education is worth the investment. The rising cost of tuition fees and the increasing number of graduates struggling to find employment have fueled this ongoing discussion. However, despite the challenges, obtaining a college education is still highly valuable for several reasons.First and foremost, a college education provides individuals with expanded knowledge and specialized skills. Through a variety of courses and programs, students develop critical thinking abilities, analytical skills, and a broader understanding of the world. This comprehensive education equips graduates with the tools to navigate and succeed in a competitive job market.In addition, a college degree opens doors to better career opportunities and higher earning potential. Statistics consistently show that those with a college education earn higher salaries compared to those without. Thespecialized knowledge gained through higher education allows individuals to qualify for higher-paying positions and positions in fields that require specific expertise. Furthermore, graduates are more likely to receive benefits such as healthcare and retirement plans, which contribute to their overall financial stability.Moreover, college provides a unique environment for personal growth and development. The college experience exposes students to a diverse range of ideas, cultures, and perspectives. This exposure fosters tolerance, empathy, and open-mindedness - skills that are essential in a globalized society. Additionally, students have the opportunity to engage in extracurricular activities, develop leadership skills, and build a strong network of contacts, which can greatly benefit them in their future endeavors.Lastly, a college education has long-term societal benefits. College graduates tend to be more informed and engaged citizens, actively contributing to their communities. They are more likely to vote, participate in volunteer work, and promote positive change. Moreover, higher education institutions often serve as hubs for research and innovation, leading to advancements in various fields and driving societal progress.In conclusion, while the debate over the value of a college education continues, it is evident that obtaining a college degree remains highly advantageous. The expanded knowledge, specialized skills, improved career prospects, personal growth, and long-term societal benefits make investing in higher education a worthwhile endeavor.翻译:大学教育的价值今天一个被广泛争论的话题是大学教育是否值得投资。
《大学英语》book1 译文

Unit 1前些日子,我接到一位同事的电话,问我是否愿意做仲裁人,为一道考题评分。
这是一道物理题,同事打算给一个学生打零分。
这位同学却坚持认为自己在该问题上的回答表现出色,应该得满分。
他深信,如果评分制度不与学生作对,那他就应该得满分。
结果同事便来找我定夺。
来到同事办公室,我阅读了这道考题。
其内容为:说明借助气压计测量大楼高度的可能方法。
那位同学的答案是:“将气压计带到楼顶,系一根长绳。
用绳子把气压计从楼顶送至楼下的大街上,再将绳子拉上来,测其长度。
绳子的长度便是大楼的高度。
”我的态度是,该生回答得既完整又正确,应该得满分。
可问题在于,这种回答无法反映该生所掌握的物理知识。
为了证明他是个合格的学生,我提议,再给他一次回答这一问题的机会。
同事表示同意,对此我并不感到意外。
那位同学竟然也表示同意,这倒真有些出人意料。
我给这位同学六分钟时间回答问题,并提醒他,答案必须反映出一定的物理知识。
五分钟过去了,他只字未写。
我问他是否打算放弃,他回答无此念头,而且告诉我这道题有很多答案,他实际上是在考虑哪个答案最好。
我为自己上前打搅他表示抱歉,并请他继续答题。
在随后的一分钟里,他迅速写出了答案,内容如下:“将气压计带到楼顶。
把气压计扔下楼,用秒表计时。
然后用S = 1/2 gt 2这个公式,计算大楼的高度。
”此时,我问那位同事是否愿意放弃。
他放弃了,而我给这位同学几乎打了满分。
离开同事办公室时,我想起那位同学说过他还有其他解答方法,便问他还有哪些方法。
他答道:“是呀,有很多种借助气压计测量大楼高度的方法。
比如说,你可以在阳光明媚的时候把气压计带出去,先测量气压计的高度及其影子的长度,再测出大楼影子的长度,然后利用单比例关系,就能计算出大楼的高度。
”“真不错,”我说道,“还有其他方法吗?”“有啊,”他说,“有一种最基本的测量方法,你一定会喜欢。
这种方法需要你带着气压计去爬楼梯,一边上楼,一边沿着墙壁按气压计的高度做记号,然后数数做了多少个记号,就知道大楼的高度是多少个气压计的单位高度了。

Why I Love the City我的许多朋友都离开了这座城市。
它们是在郊区买房子,因为他们想要远离城市的喧嚣、烟雾、交通、和犯罪的城市。
一个朋友说,“有太多的空气污染的城市。
我更喜欢郊区,那里的空气是那么清新。
“另一个朋友抱怨交通:“有太多的汽车市区!你不能找到一个停车的地方,交通堵塞的情况都很可怕。
“每个人都在抱怨关于犯罪:“城市有许多罪犯。

这种变化的原因是什么?他们的花园!他们很快了解到,一个不可避免的一部分yardwork郊区生活。

然而到目前为止我还没有一个缺点:我不需要做yardwork或喂动物。
同时,在这个城市,到处都可以让我乘公共汽车吗?如果有交通堵塞,我可以走回去。
似乎每个人都搬到郊区,避免罪恶的大城市。
我有一个理论的城市犯罪的,然而,所以我觉得安全罪犯将反映在社会生活的变化:如果人们买了房子在郊区,罪犯将步其后尘。

最近,美国人一直不断地由城市郊区。
开放空间;西部地区迁移美国人开始先驱移动,从东海岸到西250年前。
他们向西边移居的原因有许多种。
一个理由是无限的开放空间的可用性和土地耕作。
美国人喜欢大的开放空间,他们也喜欢独立和自由发展的土地以他们自己的方式。
一些土地变得农场。
重要的矿产资源被发现在某些地区,因此有一些那地就都归了地雷。
其他大型地区成为牛牧场。
似乎对每个人都有足够的土地。
但这是一个困难的生活——一种无止境的工作和困难。
城市1860年以后,工业革命改变了美国。
美国人学会了如何生产的钢铁。
他们开始生产石油。
汽车被发明了。
工厂各类开始出现,而在城市开始长大了工厂周围。
农民和其他的国家里,人们搬到越来越多的城市人为了寻找工作,更容易的生活。
在1900年代早期,城市工作忙、令人激动的地方。
然而,也有很多贫穷和困苦。
城市增长的城市建筑taller-and不必得到增长out-they展开的中心。
私有房屋和门廊与码就消失了。

越来越多的人搬到城市,越来越大,城市。
一些城市不能分散因为没有房间这么做。
这些城市,纽约就是一个最好的例子,变得越来越拥挤。
更多的人意味着更多的汽车、卡车、公交车、更大的噪音,更多的污染,以及更多的犯罪。

近年来,越来越多的企业开始向郊区迁移。
他们吸引了很多人,郊区变得拥挤。
接下来要做什么?美国人看了他们缓慢下落到大城市年久失修而死。
许多人离开了城市中产阶级,只有非常富有的人和很多贫困的人呆在后面。
有关美国人正设法解决这一问题的噪音、灰尘、犯罪和污染在大城市里。
他们正试图重建坏的部分城市为了吸引和保持业务的人。
他们正在努力使他们的城市美丽。
如今,许多美国人都正在考虑搬回了城市。

Caution: Bumpy Road Ahead毕业的学生今天还没有充分准备对付“真实的世界。
“我相信,大学生必须教会更多的技能和信息使他们能满足面对各种挑战,每个人都在日常生活中。
学生需要的地区训练打信用的比赛,他们的个人财务战略规划,以及消费者意识。
学习如何获取和使用信用卡可能是最宝贵的知识青年。
信用是一个危险的工具,它可以是非常大的帮助,如果它是谨慎处理。
有信用可以使人们获得物质必需品之前,他们已那笔钱买他们了事。
但不幸的是,许多年轻人获得带走他们的塑胶信用卡和清醒的一天,发现他们是在严重的金融债务。
学习如何使用信用卡不适当的一个十分困难且令人痛苦的教训:的确如此。
同样重要的是学会如何计划一项个人预算。
人们必须知道如何控制钱;否则,就可以控制它们。
学生应该离开大学时,知道如何分配他们的钱生活费用、保险、储蓄、等等,以避免“哦,不!“我身无分文,我不会被支付薪水又为两个星期!“焦虑综合症。
随着学习信贷和个人财务策划,毕业大学生应被训练为消费者。
今天的消费市场充斥着各种各样的产品和服务的不同质量和价格。
一个年轻的人进入“真实的世界”,突然面临困难的决定哪种产品购买或服务的开展。
他通常是没有意识到的诸如退货政策、担保、或维修的方法。
这类信息是至关重要的,日常生活知识。
对于一个刚刚毕业大学生,“真实的世界”,可以是一种可怕的地方当他或她正面临着这样的问题处理信用,计划规划预算,或者知道如何寻找决定购买时,谁来买它。
进入这个“真实的世界”,应该更少的人受过教育的痛苦在处理这些地方的日常生活中。
还有什么更好的地方来完成这比在学校吗?Memory Lane Isn't What It Used to Be大约每一年的这个时候,我就觉得很怀旧的色彩。
我的邻居在穿过一个秋天的午后使我想起了不久之前当孩子的声音,空气里弥漫着,孩子们玩游戏在一座小山上,把周围的叶子在街尾,我是这些孩子们,心旷神怡。
我住在一条大街那一条街长。
我一直住在同一条街上十六年。
我爱我的街道。
一方有六个房子,其他的只有两个房子,一座小山上,中间的树和一个巨大的三叶一侧。
当我想起了家乡,我觉得我的街道,我只把它看作从前。
不幸的是,事情变化。
有一天,不久前,我环顾四周,看见一切都变成了多么不同。
生活在我的街道将永远不会跟以前一样,因为邻居们很快衰老,朋友是成长和离开,这个城市正在策划摧毁我宝贵的小山和出售财产的承包商。
我很难接受我的许多美妙的邻居是随着年龄的增长不能在更长时间。
我留下了美好的回忆这对夫妇穿过马路,谁一起坐在门廊的秋千几乎每天晚上,隔壁的寡妇谁吼我的兄弟和我因为太吵闹,并且疯狂的黑色西装的老人在驾驶一辆旧汽车。
相反,今天我见到的人都是很古老的邻居有过好日子。
黑色的西服的人说他想死,另一位邻居刚卖掉了自己的房子,搬进了一个养老院。
那位女士曾大叫,我们太累了,麻烦了,这对夫妇穿过街道很少去他们的前廊,这些天。
很难看到这些珍贵的人快结束的时候他们的生活因为我以为他们会永远活着。
“来来往往”的年轻一代,现多道街的“强”视为朋友和同事继续前进。
很久以前,我的生活和我的同学们的生活围绕回家。
我们的世界的边界阴沟里在这条街的尽头。
我们有快乐游戏玩晚上,或从一个惊人的骑三轮车。
现在情况和以前不同了,因为我的朋友已经长大成人,继续前进。
现在孩子们骑着三轮车开汽车。
有一次打过的孩子现在跟我有新的利益和价值观,因为他们要解散。
有些人去上大学,一些结了婚,两个进了军队,和一个进了监狱。
看这些人长大了,走只能使我渴望的好日子。
也许最大的变化在我的街道是事实,这个城市是准备把珍贵的希尔分成几个很多新家园。
十六年,主张从我的厨房窗口已经看到那座山。
山顶上是其中一个基本需求我的童年生活,这是社会活动的枢纽的孩童在我的街道。
我们花了几个小时建堡垒,滑雪,打标签。
从我的观点现在是非常不同的厨房的窗户;它是一种拖拉机、自卸卡车撕裂了山。
当山上去,邻居们会不一样的。
这是一片我的童年。
它是一个可视提醒做小孩子。
没有山,我的街道将只是另一种豌豆在豆荚。
曾有一个时候,我是我的世界街,我还以为我的世界永远不会变。
但有事发生了。
人长大了,人们变老的。
地方变化,变化来了解我的心痛再也回不到多少次,我爱。
在一年左右的时间里,我将不复存在就像许多我的邻居。
我总是回想我的年作为一个孩子,但这个地方我记得是寂静的街道被中断的和平建设的声音。
这将是快乐,喧闹的,有点奇怪,但奇妙的街道我知道作为一个孩子Unit 2Rosa Parks—A Hero of Civil Rights大多数历史学家说,开始的当代民权运动在美国1955年12月1日。
