新视野大学英语(第三版)读写教程2全册答案Unit 1 Text AEx.1 Understanding the text1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules.2、The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account; however, what the student could do was only one single utterance :“whoa!”without any any specific comment.3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language.4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with.5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs.6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before.7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “as vocabulary.8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in two different situations and with two different feelings.Ex.3 Words in use1.condense2.exceed3.deficit4.exposure5.asset6.adequatepetent8.adjusting9.precisely 10.beneficialEx.4 Word building-al/-ial: managerial/editorial/substance/survival/tradition/margin-cy : consistency/accuracy/efficient-y : recovery/ministry/assemblyEx.5 Word building1.editorial2.recovery3.accuracy4.substance5.managerial6.margin7.assembly8.Ministry9.survival 10.tradition 11.consistency 12.efficientEx.6 Banked cloze1-5: L C J A I 6-10: O N E H FEx.7 Expressions in use1.feel obliged to2.be serious about3.run into4.distinguish between5.thrust upon6.was allergic to7.get lost8.be attracted to9.make sense 10.looked upon asEx.8 Structured writingSome bookworms in my dormitory often spend hours reading their “Bible”, Practical English Grammar, and do a lot of exercises in that book , but I don’t care about it at all.

In fact, English grammar has always been a big headache to me.English grammar is very complicated because, unlike Chinese, there are many verb tenses. Even stranger than verb tenses, English grammar also contains something very confusing. For example, I don’t remember how many times my middle school teacher tried to“impose”the differences between used to and be used to on us. Sometimes he would go on with the explanation for 20 minutes or so. He even summarized the differences by listing three or four points for us to memorize. However, they could never stay in my head . I don’t remember how many times I got it wrong with the sentences containing used to or be used to on my exams . I was really confused with these two phrases,and I can never get them right.In brief, I’m allergic to learning English grammar. Curiously, I just wonder if the native speakers of English have a microcomputer in their brain to help them utter the two phrases promptly with just a click of their brain mouse!Ex.9 E-C Translation人们普遍认为英语是一种世界语言，经常被许多不以英语为第一语言的国家使用。

Now, she is servin g a life senten ce withou t chance of parole (假释) at the Lowell Correc tiona l Instit ution in Ocala,Florid a. Lookin g back, Falcon faults her choice of friend s."I was like a magnet for the wrongcrowd," she says.At the time, Falcon was living with her grandm other in Panama City, Florid a. On Novemb er 19, 1997, upsetover an ex-boyfri end, she downed a largeamount of alcoho l and hailed a taxi with an 18-year-old friend. Her friend had a gun and, within minute s, the taxi driver was shot in the head. The driver, Richar d Todd Philli ps, 25, died severa l days later. Each of the teenag ers latersaid the otherhad done the shooti ng.In Falcon's case, she was foundguilty of murder, though it was neverknownprecis ely what happen ed. "It brokemy heart," says Steven Sharp, one of the people who made the decisi on to send Falcon to prison. "Toughas it is, basedon the crime,I thinkit's approp riate. Still, it's terrib le to put a 15-year-old behind bars foreve r."Falcon's case is not so uncomm on in the US, but it is rare around the world. About9,700 Americ an prison ers are servin g life senten ces for crimes they commit ted before age 18. More than a fifthhave no chance for parole. Life withou t parole is availa ble for youngcrimin als in abouta dozencountr ies, but a recent report by HumanRights Watchand Amnest y Intern ation al foundonly 12 youngcrimin als—in Israel, SouthAfrica, and Tanzan ia—servin g such senten ces. In the U.S., more than 2,200 people are servin g life withou t parole for crimes they commit ted before turnin g 18. More than 350 are 15 or younge r.Cruel& Unusua l?Youngcrimin als are servin g life terms(with or withou t the possib ility of parole) in at least48 states, accord ing to a survey by The New York Times,and theirnumber s have increa sed sharpl y in the past decade. Of thoseimpris onedin 2001, 95 percen t were male and 55 percen t were black.Is such punish mentfair for youngoffend ers? In March2005, the Suprem e Courtruledthat the deathpenalt y for crimes commit ted by people under18 violat es the Eighth Amendm ent to the Consti tutio n, whichprohib its "crueland unusua l punish ments." That mighthave surpri sed the people who agreed to the Amendm ent in 1791, many of whom foundsuch execut ionsneithe r cruelnor unusua l. But the Courtsaid that the meanin g of the Amendm ent change s with "evolvi ng standa rds of decenc y." Theirdecisi on has convin ced lawyer s and activi sts that the next legalbattle groun d in the US will be over lifesenten ces for youngcrimin als."Unform ed" Person aliti esThe Suprem e Courtruledthat youths under18 who commit terrib le crimes are less blamew orthy than adults, at leastfor purpos es of the deathpenalt y: They are less mature, more willin g to give in to peer pressu re, and theirperson aliti es are unform ed. "Even a terrib le crimecommit ted by a youngperson," Justic e Anthon y M. Kenned y conclu ded, is not "eviden ce of a hopele sslyevil charac ter."Most of thoseyouthf ul qualit ies were eviden t in Falcon, who had troubl e fittin g in at school. She is in prison for murder, meanin g she partic ipate d in a crimethat led to a killin g but was not proved to have killed anyone.Jim Applem an, the lawyer that triedto put Falcon in jail, says she does not ever deserv e to be free. He is convin ced that she shot Philli ps. "If she were a 29-year-old or a 22-year-old," he says, "I have no doubtshe wouldhave gotten the deathpenalt y."Althou gh Falcon believ es her senten ce is unfair, she says her eightyearsin prison have change d her. "A certai n amount of time beingin jail was what I needed," she says. "But the law I fell underis for people who have no hope of beingchange d for the better, career crimin als who habitu allybreakthe law, and there's just no hope for them in societ y. I'm a comple telydiffer ent case.""This can be hard"The case of anothe r Florid a teenag er, Timoth y Kane, showshow youths can be sent away for life, even when they were not centra l figure s in a crime. (Florid a is amongthe states with the larges t number of youngoffend ers—about600—servin g life senten ces, about270 withou t parole.)On Jan. 26, 1992, Kane, then 14, was playin g videogamesat a friend's housein Hudson, Florid a, whilesome olderboys planne d a robber y. That night, five youths rode theirbikesover to a neighb or's home. Two backed out, but Kane follow ed AlvinMorton, 19, and BobbyGarner, 17, into the house.He did not want others to thinkhe was scared, he recall s. "This is the decisi on that shaped my life since," says Kane.He says he though t the housewouldbe empty. But Madeli ne Weisse r, 75, and her son, John Bowers, 55, were home. WhileKane hid behind a dining-room table, Morton shot and killed Bowers. He then stucka knifein Weisse r's neck; Garner steppe d on the knife, nearly cuttin g off her head.Morton was senten ced to death.Garner, like Kane, a youngoffend er, was givena life senten ce with no possib ility of parole for 50 years. Kane was also senten ced to life, but he may be able to get parole afterservin g 25 years. He doubts that the parole boardwillever let him out.Kane growsemotio nal when talkin g aboutthat Januar y night. "I witnes sed two people die," he says. "I regret that everyday of my life, beingany part of that and seeing that." He does not disput e that he deserv ed punish mentbut says his senten ce is harsh. His days at Sumter Correc tiona l Instit ution in Bushne ll, Florid a, are spentin the prison printshop making 55 centsan hour. "You have no hope of gettin g out," Kane says. "You have no family. You have no moralsuppor t here. This can be hard."Will the courtdo anythi ng to help?In decidi ng whethe r "evolvi ng standa rds" have turned agains t a partic ularpunish ment, the Suprem e Courtlooksat what the states are doing.Life withou t parole for youngoffend ers is widely used, and only threestates specif icall y ban it. If this form of punish mentis to be banned by virtue of its violat ing the Eighth Amendm ent, it will likely happen only when a majori ty of the states firstget rid of it.Robert W. Attrid ge, the lawyer in Kane's case, says he feelssorryfor him. "But he had option s," Attrid ge says. "He had a way out. Two otherboys decide d to leave."CouldTim Kane be your kid, beingin the wrongplaceat the wrongtime?" the lawyer asks. "I thinkhe could. It only takesone nightof bad judgme nt and, man, your life can be ruined."1.What happen ed on Novemb er 19, 1997?A. Falcon's boyfri end drankalcoho l.B. A taxi driver was shot.C.

新视野大学英语2课后参考答案
Section AI. Comprehension of the Text1. The attitude is that if one is not moving ahead he is falling behind.2. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. (People budget it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; they also charge for it.) They do this because time is a precious resource.3. Everyone is in a rush — often under pressure. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going, restlessly seeking attention in a store or elbowing others as they try to complete their shopping.4. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain appropriate point.5. New arrivals in America will miss opening exchanges, the ritual interaction that goes with a cup of coffee or tea and leisurely chats.6. Americans produce a steady flow of labor-saving devices. They communicate rapidly through faxes, phone calls or emails rather than through personal contacts.7. The impersonality of electronic communication has little or no relation to the significance of the matter at hand.8.

新视野大学英语第2册课后练习答案以及课文翻译
新版新视野读写教程第二版第二册课文翻译unit1美国人认为没有人能停止不前。
如果你不求进取，你就会落伍。
这种态度造就了一个投身于研究、实验和探索的民族。
时间是美国人注意节约的两个要素之一，另一要素是劳力。
人们一直说：“只有时间才能支配我们。
”人们似乎把时间当作一个差不多是实实在在的东西来对待。
我们安排时间、节约时间、浪费时间、挤抢时间、消磨时间、缩减时间、对时间的利用作出解释；我们还要因付出时间而收取费用。
时间是一种宝贵的资源，许多人都深感人生的短暂。
时光一去不复返。
我们应当让每一分钟都过得有意义。
外国人对美国的第一印象很可能是：每个人都匆匆忙忙──常常处于压力之下。
城里人看上去总是在匆匆地赶往他们要去的地方，在商店里他们焦躁不安地指望店员能马上来为他们服务，或者为了赶快买完东西，用肘来推搡他人。
白天吃饭时人们也都匆匆忙忙，这部分地反映出这个国家的生活节奏。
人们认为工作时间是宝贵的。
在公共用餐场所，人们都等着别人尽快吃完，以便他们也能及时用餐，你还会发现司机开车很鲁莽，人们推搡着在你身边过去。
你会怀念微笑、简短的交谈以及与陌生人的随意闲聊。
不要觉得这是针对你个人的，这是因为人们都非常珍惜时间，而且也不喜欢他人“浪费”时间到不恰当的地步。
许多刚到美国的人会怀念诸如商务拜访等场合开始时的寒暄。
他们也会怀念那种一边喝茶或喝咖啡一边进行的礼节性交流，这也许是他们自己国家的一种习俗。
他们也许还会怀念在饭店或咖啡馆里谈生意时的那种轻松悠闲的交谈。
一般说来，美国人是不会在如此轻松的环境里通过长时间的闲聊来评价他们的客人的，更不用说会在增进相互间信任的过程中带他们出去吃饭，或带他们去打高尔夫球。
既然我们通常是通过工作而不是社交来评估和了解他人，我们就开门见山地谈正事。
因此，时间老是在我们心中滴滴答答地响着。
因此，我们千方百计地节约时间。
我们发明了一系列节省劳力的装置；我们通过发传真、打电话或发电子邮件与他人迅速地进行交流，而不是通过直接接触。

Unit 1 Passage 1第1页到第3页Differences Between Two Kinds of Youth原版：The trip to the United State opened my eyes to the fact that there are a lot ofsimilarities as well as differences between American youth and French youth. Now Iwill talk about the differences between them.The first difference is in appearance. Going around in the U.S., I found that American youth do not really care about their appearance. In the morning, they choose something in their closet and wear it with another thing, often of different colors andstyles, without wondering whether their choices make them look strange. The reasonbehind this is that they don't care what people look like, but are just interested in theirideas. I think it's great, but it also causes problems. Since they don't care about their appearance, they don't really care about their weight. Often they get fat without realizing it.There are differences in relationships too. When the American youth fall in love,they don't really think of the future. Also, there are differences in the rules concerningbehavior that is allowed. In some respects, the French are more accepting. For example,in America it is generally unacceptable to make physical display of love. Lovers,actually, can't kiss or hold each other everywhere they want. People think that notshowing love in public places is a way to respect others. On the contrary, the Frenchyouth can do almost everything they want,and they are usually more concerned aboutthe future of the relationship than American youth.With regard to othet types of relationships ,there are also big differences.Americans act differently from French people in front of unknown people. When an American girl, for example, arrives in front of people she has never met before, she will talk with them, trying to create a kind of tie between her and this new circle of people. The French girls will just think about rather than really do this kind of thing because they are too shy and lacking in self-confidence.To finish, I noticed that in American classes, when pupils want to say or ask something, they just do it. In general, they don't really care how the others will judge them. In France, it's not the same case. If somebody wants to ask something, he/she will think about it before speaking up. I appreciate the freedom in Americans' behavior, ideas, and ways of expressing themselves.1、In this article,the author talks about______between American youth and Frenchyouth.A) The friendshipB) The differences and similaritiesC) The similiartiesD) The differences2、American young people_______A) Are more concerned about appearanceB) Show more interest in people‘s ideasC) Are just interested in peoples‘ clothesD) Care more about their weight3、American youth often______A) Wonder why they look strangeB) Care what people look likeC) Neglect their weightD) Cause problems with their ideas4、When American youth fall in love with each other, they _________.A) will kiss wherever they likeB) will always think about their futureC) will not hold each otherD) will rarely display their love in public5、French youth may think more about_____A) Their lover‘s ideasB) Their relationship‘s futureC) Their physical displaysD) Their public images6、When meeting with strange,American girls_______A) Are usually shy and keep silentB) Will try to create a bond with themC) Will try to arrive in front of themD) Usually lack self-confidence7、When facing strangers,French girl usually______A) Start to create a lively conversationB) Enjoy showing their self-confidencceC) Are shy and lack confidenceD) Behave in a way similar to American girls8、If French pupils want to ask questions in class,they will_____A) Ask for the teacher‘s permission firstB) Speak up before the teacher permitsC) Try to control themselves not to do soD) Think about it before they do so译文：对美国的旅行让我打开眼界，有很多的相似性以及差异的美国青年和法国青年。

Short conversations or small exchanges with strangers. Comprehension of the Text Exercise ⅠThe exact form of the answers is open, but the general idea is: 1. The attitude is that if one is not moving ahead, he is falling behind. 2. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. People budget it, save it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; they also charge for it. They do this because time is a precious resource. 3. Everyone is in a rush —often under pressure. In the writer’s eyes, city people always appear to be burying to get where they are going, restlessly seeking attention in a store, or elbowing others as they try to complete their shopping. 4. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain appropriate point. 5. This is because Americans generally assess and enquire about their visitors professionally rather than socially. They start talking business very quickly. Time is always ticking in their inner ear. 6.

Locked Away Forever
The Sad Case of Rebecca Falcon
One night when she was just 15, Rebecca Falcon got drunk and made the decision that ruined her entire life. Now, she is serving a life sentence without chance of parole (假释) at the Lowell Correctional Institution in Ocala, Florida. Looking back, Falcon faults her choice of friends.
Although Falcon believes her sentence is unfair, she says her eight years in prison have changed her. "A certain amount of time being in jail was what I needed," she says. "But the law I fell under is for people who have no hope of being changed for the better, career criminals who habitually break the law, and there's just no hope for them in society. I'm a completely different case."
Is such punishment fair for young offenders? In March 2005, the Supreme Court ruled that the death penalty for crimes committed by people under 18 violates the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution, which prohibits "cruel and unusual punishments." That might have surprised the people who agreed to the Amendment in 1791, many of whom found such executions neither cruel nor unusual. But the Court said that the meaning of the Amendment changes with "evolving standards of decency." Their decision has convinced lawyers and activists that the next legal battleground in the US will be over life sentences for young criminals.
Cruel & Unusual?
Young criminals are serving life terms (with or without the possibility of parole) in at least 48 states, according to a survey byThe New York Times, and their numbers have increased sharply in the past decade. Of those imprisoned in 2001, 95 percent were male and 55 percent were black.
On Jan. 26, 1992, Kane, then 14, was playing video games at a friend's house in Hudson, Florida, while some older boys planned a robbery. That night, five youths rode their bikes over to a neighbor's home. Two backed out, but Kane followed Alvin Morton, 19, and Bobby Garner, 17, into the house. He did not want others to think he was scared, he recalls. "This is the decision that shaped my life since," says Kane.
In Falcon's case, she was found guilty of murder, though it was never known precisely what happened. "It broke my heart," says Steven Sharp, one of the people who made the decision to send Falcon to prison. "Tough as it is, based on the crime, I think it's appropriate. Still, it's terrible to put a 15-year-old behind bars forever."
"This can be hard"
The case of another Florida teenager, Timothy Kane, shows how youths can be sent away for life, even when they were not central figures in a crime. (Florida is among the states with the largest number of young offenders—about 600—serving life sentences, about 270 without parole.)
Falcon's case is not so uncommon in the US, but it is rare around the world. About 9,700 American prisoners are serving life sentences for crimes they committed before age 18. More than a fifth have no chance for parole. Life without parole is available for young criminals in about a dozen countries, but a recent report by Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International found only 12 young criminals—in Israel, South Africa, and Tanzania—serving such sentences. In the U.S., more than 2,200 people are serving life without parole for crimes they committed before turning 18. More than 350 are 15 or younger.
Most of those youthful qualities were evident in Falcon, who had trouble fitting in at schor, meaning she participated in a crime that led to a killing but was not proved to have killed anyone.
Jim Appleman, the lawyer that tried to put Falcon in jail, says she does not ever deserve to be free. He is convinced that she shot Phillips. "If she were a 29-year-old or a 22-year-old," he says, "I have no doubt she would have gotten the death penalty."
"Unformed" Personalities
The Supreme Court ruled that youths under 18 who commit terrible crimes are less blameworthy than adults, at least for purposes of the death penalty: They are less mature, more willing to give in to peer pressure, and their personalities are unformed. "Even a terrible crime committed by a young person," Justice Anthony M. Kennedy concluded, is not "evidence of a hopelessly evil character."
