After-Class Reading迟做总比不做好1他躺在草从中,躲在那儿,同时思索着。

2他研究了这个小女孩的习惯。

他知道下午三点左右她会从外祖父的房子里出来玩耍。

3他为此举痛恨自己。

4在他悲惨的一生中,他还从来没有考虑过任何像绑架这样冷酷无情的事情。

5然而此时此刻他却躺在草丛里,被树木遮掩着,房了里的人看不见他。

他正等待着一个天真无邪、红头发、两岁人的小女孩向他走近。

6这是一次漫长的等待;有时间进行思考。

7可能在哈伦德的一生中,一切都太过匆忙。

85岁的时候,他那当农民的山地人父亲就去世了。

9 14岁的时候,他就从格林伍徳屮学辍学,开始到处流浪。

10他做过农场的临时工,但他不喜欢那工作。

11他尝试做过公共汽车的售票员,但也不喜欢那工作。

12在16岁的时候,他谎报年龄参了军——可他也不喜欢当兵。

在一年的服役期满后,他前往阿拉巴马州,在那儿试着做铁匠,但没有成功。

13 (后来)他成了南方铁路公司的恢路机车司炉工。

他喜欢那工作,以为自己找到了真正的自我。

14在18岁的时候,他结了婚。

谁知道没几个月,就在他说自己又被解雇了的那一天,他妻子说她怀孕了。

15接着,有一天,当他外出找工作的时候,他年轻的妻子散尽他们所有的家产回娘家去了。

16接下来就是经济萧条时期。

17正如人们所说的那样,哈伦德失去得太多,赢不回来了。

18他确实努力了。

19 一度,当他在铁路上不断地打各种零工的时候,他尝试过通过函授学习法律。

20但他也半途而废了。

21他尝试过卖保险、卖轮胎。

22他尝试过开渡轮,经营加汕站,但都没有用。

23面对现实吧——哈伦徳是一个失败者。

24他现在正躲在列吉尼亚州罗阿诺克郊外的杂草从里,筹划一次绑架。

25就如我所说的,他已经观察过这个小女孩的习惯,知道她下午玩耍的时间。

26但是,这一天,小女孩却没有出来玩,所以他那失败之链依旧没有中断。

27在他后来的生活中,他成了科尔宾一家餐馆的主厨和刷瓶工。

一切都挺好,直到冇一天新的公路绕餐馆而过。

2 Do you think foreigners can understand Chinese sports such as t’ai chi and kung fu? This is a strange question. Why not? Chinese people can surely understand sports which have come to China from other countries, invented or developed by foreigners, can’t they? So the reverse must also be true. Many foreigners are interested in traditional Chinese sports like martial arts and t’ai chi, and if they learn them well they can understand them.

1 Work in pairs and discuss the questions. 2 Look at the title and the first two paragraphs of the passage and answer the questions.
Warming Up
Plays usually begin with a “scrimmage” in which players on the field take up particular formations for offence and defence and consist of a series of “downs” (rapid bursts of play in which the offence attempts to advance the ball towards their opponents’ endzone), outside of which the ball is “dead” (out of play). The main points are scored by a 6-point “touchdown” (when the ball is taken to the opponents’ end zone), a 3-point “field goal” (when the ball is kicked through the opponents’ goal posts), or a 2-point “safety” (by tackling an opposing ball carrier in their own end zone).

Occasionally, I email the man I didn't marry.Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.Coffee is one of the most popular (流行的) drinks throughout the world today. In fact, according to some estimates, over 30% of all adults in the world drink coffee at least once a day on the average.Coffee contains a kind of drug called caffeine (咖啡因). Caffeine is a chemical that stimulates (刺激) thenerves of the body. Drinking coffee tends to make people a little bit more awake-at least for a short time―because of this stimulating effect on the nervous system (系统). A cup of coffee has, on the average, about 3% caffeine in it.One story of the discovery of the coffee plant relates to this effect of caffeine. According to the story, coffee was discovered in East Africa. The story says that coffee was first found by a goat farmer named Kaldi. This was about the year 850.Kaldi was leading his animals through the mountains and the goats were stopping repeatedly to eat the plants near the path. Suddenly, some of the goats started jumping up and down in a very strange way.Kaldi figured out that the goats were acting this way because of the plants they were eating. Kaldi himself tried eating some of the green beans (豆荚) that the goats had been eating. He, too, felt the stimulating effect of the beans.Kaldi wanted to prove what had happened, so he picked some of the beans and took them back to his home village, where he told his story. The green bean got the name "Kaffa" and later "coffee" because the beans were discovered in a place called Kaffa in Africa.Then for years, people used to eat a few of the green Kaffa beans when they were in the mountains and needed extra energy to do their work. It was later found that the coffee beans could be picked and then dried until they turned brown, and then they could be stored. If the beans were dried and stored, they could be used at any time.1.What is caffeine?A. A kind of seed.B. A kind of plant.C. A kind of drug.D. A kind of nut.2.What is the purpose of drinking coffee?A. To become more awake.B. To become more healthy.C. To become more happy.D. To become more clever.3.Coffee was first found by a __________.A. doctorB. farmerC. druggist(药剂师)D. chemist(化学家)4.How did the goats react after eating the plants?A. They fell asleep.B. They could not find their way home.C. They started jumping up and down.D. They wanted to eat more.5.Why did the green bean get the name "Kaffa"?A. Because Kaldi loved his home village very much.B. Because Kaldi's goats loved the green bean very much.C. Because the beans were discovered in a place by this name.D. Because the beans could be picked and dried.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.Pepys and his wife had asked some friends to dinner on Sunday, September 2nd, 1666. The servants (女仆) were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see it. So he set to work to tidy (整理) his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything.While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a baker's house in Pudding Lane (小巷), and then the flames (火焰) had quickly spread to the other houses in the narrow lane. So began the Great Fire of London, a fire that lasted nearly five days, destroyed most of the old city and ended, so it is said, at Pie Corner.6.The servants were up very late because _______________.A. they were chattingB. they were having a partyC. they were preparing for a dinnerD. they were watching a fire7.Pepys went back to bed because _______________.A. he was not interested in chatting about a fireB. he did not think the fire was anything specialC. the fire was far awayD. the fire had died down8.When Pepys was tidying his room and things, Jane came in and told him that _______________.A. the fire was dying downB. the fire had been put outC. the fire was a bad oneD. no flame could be seen9.The fire started _________________.A. on London BridgeB. in a baker's houseC. because the lane was too narrow for people to come inD. because people could not get enough water to put it out10.Pie Corner was __________________.A. the site of the Tower of LondonB. the site of the Great Fire of LondonC. the place where the fire endedD. the place where Pepys livedQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog.In the United States 84 colleges now accept just women. Most of these colleges were established in the 19th century; they were designed to offer women the education they could not receive anywhere else. At that time major universities and colleges accepted only men. In the past 20 years many young women have chosen to study at colleges that accept both men and women. As a result some women's colleges decided to accept men students too. Others, however, refused to change. Now these schools are popular (流行的) again.The president of Trinity College (三一大学) in Washington, D.C. said that by the end of the 1980s women began to recognize that studying at the same school with men did not mean women were having an equal chance to learn. The president of Smith College in Massachusetts says a women's college permits women to choose classes and activities freely. For example, she says that in a women's college a higher percentage of students studies mathematics than in a college with both men and women.Educational experts say men students in the United States usually speak in class more than women students do. In a women's college, women feel freer to say what they think. Women's schools also bring out leadership capabilities in many women. Women are represented everywhere. For example, at a women's college every governing office is held by a woman. Recent studies reportedly show that this leadership continues after college. American women who went to women's colleges are more likely to hold successful jobs later in life.11.Women's colleges were established to ________________.A. give women the same right of education that men enjoyB. make changes to the traditional educational system (系统)C. defy men's privilege (特权) in societyD. train women in particular fields12.Studying at the same school with men does not mean ________________.A. women can do the same thing as menB. that women are given the same chance as menC. women are allowed more freedom to develop themselvesD. the present educational system does not allow other choices13.According to the passage, in women's schools _________________.A. women are freer than if they study at the same school with menB. women could do anything they wantC. they teach things peculiar to womenD. men are openly challenged14.Which one of the following statements is NOT true about women's college?A. Women feel freer to say what they think.B. More women can participate in the management of the college.C. A very high percentage of women will become leaders later.D. Women are more likely to be successful in their later careers.15.The title of this passage is most likely to be ______.A. Female Education in the United StatesB. Women's Schools in the United StatesC. Women Should be Given the Same Education as MenD. Education in AmericaQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog.Being a man has always been dangerous. There are about 105 males born for every 100 females. However, this number changes a great deal, and by the age of maturity (成熟), the number of young men is about the same as that of young women. And among 70-year old people, there are twice as many women as men. But this great universal (普遍性) truth is changing. Now, boy babies survive almost as well as girls do. This means that for the first time there will be too many boys in those crucial (至关紧要的) years when boys are searching for a mate. What is even more troubling is that the survival of so many boys has removed a chance for natural selection (选择) to do its work. Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meant almost certain death. Today it makes almost no difference. Since much of the difference in weight is due to genes (基因), a force of change has gone.There is another way to commit evolutionary (进化的) suicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. Except in some religious communities, very few women have 15 children. Nowadays the number of births, like the age of death, has become average. Most of us have roughly the same number of children. Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have disappeared.For us, this means that people will no longer experience the physical changes that other living things do; our bodies are as perfect as they are ever going to be. Strangely, we have been able to make great advancements without physical change. In the past 100,000 years—even the past 100 years—our lives have been transformed but our bodies have not. We managed to make such changes because of technology and social systems.Darwin had a phrase to describe those ignorant of the process of change; they "look at living beings like a dog looks at a ship, as at something wholly beyond their comprehension." No doubt we will be shockedat the ugliness of the 20th century way of life. But however amazed future people may be at how far from perfection we were, those future people will look just like us.16.According to the author, what was the danger a man had to face in the past?A. Lack of mates.B. Strong competition.C. Lower chance of living to maturity.D. Genes.17.The sentence "There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide" perhaps means_______________________________________.A. there is another way to stop the society from making progressB. you can kill yourself by another meansC. there is another factor to prevent us from evolvingD. we have to find a way to do something18.Women except _______________ are having relatively small numbers of children.A. those who live to be very oldB. those who live in religious communitiesC. those who have the advantage of technologyD. those who live in poor countries19.The author argues that our bodies have stopped evolving because____________________________.A. life has been improved by technological advancementB. the number of female babies has been decliningC. we have reached the highest stage of evolutionD. the difference between wealth and poverty (贫穷) is disappearing20.What is this passage mainly about?A. The change in the numbers of boys and girls.B. Ways of continuing man's evolution.C. The evolution future of nature.D. Human evolution going nowhere.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the same passage or dialog.A little noticed change has been taking place in our time-world. The arrival of digital (数字的) time has been changing the way we act and think. I believe that it has put us to a higher level of anxiety, with greater expectations of efficiency.The old, round, hand-moved time still kept a certain connection to the natural flow of things, to the roundness of the earth, and to the changes of light and seasons. Old, round time was outside ourselves, far enough removed from us so we could ignore it if we so chose.It is not so with digital time, which is a beat. It beats instead of turning. It makes a sound like the sound ofthe heart and thus places itself smoothly into the body. More and more, we mistake its regular beat for our own, thus mistaking the demands of the world for our wishes.Before wrist watches, time used to live in towers in the centers of towns. At that distance, it could be seen by everybody, but only if they so wished. It took an effort, an actual visit to "time". But then something happened. Time began to live with us, and now it is beginning to live in us.I remember what it was like to be a child, absorbed in the endlessly changeable thing of time. For me there was only child time, divided meaninglessly and quite painfully by the orders of the parents into Bedtime, Wakeup Time, and School Time. But within each of those divisions (分割), Eternity still ruled. Later, of course, they managed to infect me with the anxious demands of clock time. Very soon, all that remained was the anxiety of that which was exact. The fast beats of the timepiece (时钟) cut Eternity to pieces.Occasionally, I stop long enough to recall the times of childhood, but not often enough. Like everybody else, I am helpless before the new technologies. Time is a virus, and it is growing stronger.21.Digital time has changed how we act and think by ____________________.A. allowing us to work with more efficiencyB. giving us more time to do what we likeC. causing us to be more anxiousD. having us expect more of others22.The author thinks that the old clocks ____________________.A. are somehow linked with the seasonal changesB. stay closer to people than a digital watchC. are connected with human's handsD. work better than a wrist watch23.Before watches, clocks were located __________________.A. everywhere for everyone to seeB. wherever a person wishedC. on the wristD. in the center of town24.In the author's early childhood memory, _________________.A. time was a concrete thingB. time seemed to have no endC. he fought against his parents' idea of timeD. he enjoyed the anxiety of precision (精确)25.The author's attitude towards time in the modern world is ____________.A. positiveB. unclearC. negativeD. in the middle。

Starter1.Background informationLang Lang(Chinese: 郎朗; pinyin: Láng Lǎng; born 14 June 1982) is a Chinese concert pianist who has performed with leading orchestras in Europe, the United States and his native China. Lang Lang currently resides in New York City.Early lifeLang Lang was born in Shenyang, Liaoning, China. His father Lang Guoren (郎国任), a Manchurian, is also a musician, who specializes in the erhu, a traditional Chinese stringed instrument. At the age of two, Lang watched the Tom and Jerry episode The Cat Concerto which features the Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 by Franz Liszt. According to Lang, this first contact with Western music is what motivated him to learn piano. He began lessons with Professor Zhu Ya-Fen at age three. At the age of five, he won first place at the Shenyang Piano Competition and performed his first public recital.When Lang Lang was nine years old, he was near his audition for Beijing's Central Conservatory of Music, and, having difficulties with his lessons, was expelled from his piano tutor's studio for "lack of talent". The music teacher at his state school noticed Lang Lang's sadness, and decided to comfort him by playing a record of Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 10 in C major, K. 330; she asked him to play along with the second movement. This reminded Lang Lang of his love of the instrument. "Playing the K. 330 brought me hope again," he recalled.Lang Lang was later admitted into the conservatory where he studied under Professor Zhao Ping-Guo. In 1993, he won the Xing Hai Cup Piano Competition in Beijing and, in 1994, was awarded first prize for outstanding artistic performance at the fourth International Competition for Young Pianists in Ettlingen, Germany. In 1995, at 13 years of age, he played the Op. 10 and Op. 25 études by Chopin at the Beijing Concert Hall and, the same year, won first place at the International Tchaikovsky Competition for Young Musicians in Japan, playing Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 2 with theMoscow Philharmonic Orchestra in a concert broadcast by NHK Television. When 14, he was a featured soloist at the China National Symphony's inaugural concert, which was broadcast by China Central Television and attended by President Jiang Zemin. The following year, he began studies with Gary Graffman at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia.Awards and outreachLang Lang has received many awards and made many television appearances. His DG recording of Beethoven Piano Concertos Nos. 1 and 4 with Christoph Eschenbach was nominated for Grammy Award during the year of its release.He appeared in Time magazine's 2009 list of the 100 Most Influential People in the World, and in Gramophone magazine's Hall of Fame in 2012. In 2008, the Recording Academy named him their Cultural Ambassador to China. More recently, Lang Lang has been chosen as an official worldwide ambassador to the 2010 Shanghai Expo. Lang Lang was appointed by the United Nations' Children's Fund (UNICEF) as an International Goodwill Ambassador in 2004. The Chinese government selected him as a vice-president of the All-China Youth Federation.The Financial Times reported that Lang Lang is "evangelical in his efforts to spread the popularity of classical music." In October 2008, he launched the Lang Lang International Music Foundation in New York with the support of the Grammys and UNICEF. In May 2009, Lang Lang and his three chosen scholars from the foundation – Charlie Liu, Anna Larsen, and Derek Wang, aged between eight and 10 years old –performed together on The Oprah Winfrey Show."In June 2011, Lang Lang was engaged by Telefónica to make appearances concerning culture, technology, education and social commitment.On 22 July 2012, Lang carried the London 2012 Olympic torch through Hornchurch on its Redbridge to Bexley leg. On 24 August 2012, he was awarded the Cross ofMerit of the Federal Republic of Germany for his engagement in the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival.On October 28, 2013, Lang Lang was chosen by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to be a United Nations Messenger of Peace — a role he says is more important than his music because it can help improve the lives of children around the world through education.His Sony 'Chopin Album' received the 2013 Echo Klassik Award.2.

现代大学英语精读2unit3theriteofspring译文

现代大学英语精读2 Unit3 the rite of spring春之祭说真的,我从来都不明白,我们到底为什么要有一个菜园子,为什么36年前,当我第一次在乡下买了房子以后,我会别的事情都不做,首先就挖一块菜地。

现在想想买一堆胡萝卜或者甜菜头,相对来说那么容易,而且又那么便宜,为什么还要自己去种呢?尤其是那些块根植物,自己种的和店里买的,根本就很难分辨。

这里肯定有人的本性在起作用。

人就喜欢脱离现实,毫无意义地瞎折腾。

再说,我又并非特别喜欢吃蔬菜,我宁可吃些油汪汪、香喷喷、一咬一口肉汁的东西,比如说热狗。

要说,如果能在窗外种热狗的话,那倒真的有了一种可以毫不犹豫为自己辩护的理由了。

可是,在现在这种情况下,我无法否认,每当4月来临,我就会发现自己走出家门,倚着院子外的篱笆,望着那块倒霉的地,十分理智地下定决心再也不去种它了。

然而,总有那么一天,当我早晨醒来的时候,一股香味似乎从窗外飘进来,就好像来自地球中心的泥土的清香味。

这时,太阳似乎也突然认真起来,它投射到地毯上的光似乎比往常要更加深黄。

那些鸟开始歇斯底里地鸣叫,心里和我一样,想着那些美味可口的虫子正从那融化的土中慢慢爬出来。

让我回去看那块地的并不只是快乐,而是矛盾和斗争。

每年碰到的问题是一样的:今年我们该使用什么方法?前几年,我们在一行行的蔬菜之间放上了36英寸宽的黑塑料薄膜。

效果极好,干旱的时候能够保湿,而且保证没有杂草。

但是黑塑料薄膜一看就是来自工厂的东西,一点浪漫的情调都没有。

所以我就逐步改用干草作覆盖料。

我们收割了不少干草,草一腐烂,的确能改善土壤的结构。

再说,看起来很舒服,而且又不花一分钱。

家里有个菜园子能是你感觉到我们这个小小星球的表面有多娇嫩、多丰饶、多容易被毁坏。

在我们那块50英尺宽、70英尺长的土地上,肯定有十几种不同的土壤。

西红柿在某个地方长不好,但是在另一个地方却长得很好。

其他庄稼也一样。

我想,要是你在地里洒满化肥,这种差别就不会如此明显。

新编大学英语Book2Unit3课后练习答案和课文翻译

Unit 3 Born to WinIn-Class Reading课内阅读参考译文生而成功一个人不可能事事由别人来教你,只能在别人的帮助下靠自己去发现。

——伽利略1 每个人生来都是独特的,与众不同的。

每个人都有能力以自己特有的方式去赢得成功。

每个正常人都能够看、听、触摸、品尝并且思考自己的事情。

每个人都有自己特有的潜在性――能力和局限性。

每个人都能凭自己的本事成为举足轻重、会思考、明事理、创造性成果颇多的人——一位成功的人。

2 “成功者”和“失败者”这两个词有多种意思。

当我们把一个人称作成功者时,我们所指的并不是那种通过优势战胜他人而获得成功的人。

而是一个无论是作为个体或是社会的成员他都能可靠、迅速地采取行动做出真诚回应的人。

失败者是一个不会采取行动作出真诚回应的人。

3 很少有人是绝对的成功者或失败者。

这(成败)只是一个程度的问题。

然而,当一个人一旦具有了成为成功者的能力时,(他)经常获得成功的可能性就会更大。

4 对成功者来说成就不是最重要的;最重要的是真诚。

真诚的人知道自己的独特之处,也赞赏他人的这一特点。

5 成功者是不怕独立思考并运用自己知识的。

他能把客观事实与主观意见区分开来,而且不会装作能解决一切问题。

他倾听他人、评价他们说的话,却能得出自己的结论。

6 成功者能灵活变通。

(他)遇事不会采用已有的、刻板的方式行事。

他能根据形势的需要改变自己的计划。

成功者热爱生活。

他乐于工作、喜爱游玩、享受美食、欣赏他人和自然带来的乐趣。

他心安理得地欣喜自己的成就。

他(也)毫无妒忌地欣赏他人的成绩。

7 成功者关心天下、关爱世人。

他贴近社会上普遍存在的问题。

他努力提高生活质量。

即使面对国内和国际上的难题,他也不会认为自己是无能为力的。

他做一切力所能及的事,使世界变得更美好。

8 即使人们生来注定会成功,但也是生来就要完全依赖于周围环境的。

成功者顺利地完成从依赖到独立的转变。

失败者则没有做到这一点。

在这一过程的某个时候失败者开始回避独立。

8The starting gun was fired, and the race began. The first lap was good, I managed
to keep up with the group, but I was feeling much more tired than I usually did, and much more than I’d anticipated. Both the long, hard weeks of training that had led up to this championship, and the exhaustion from two days of gruelling competition were showing in my performance. Mental and physical fatigue were starting to crush me, and I had to fight back.

The heptathlon consists of seven events (“hepta” means “seven” in Greek): Three are track events – the 100m hurdles, 200m and 800m events, and four are field events – the high jump, shot put, long jump and javelin. On the first day, athletes participate in the 100m hurdles, high jump, shot put and 200m events. The other events are on the second day. The winner is the woman who achieves the highest number of points collected in all the events. She does not need the top score in any single event, but competitors must take part in all the events. Points are calculated for each event by measuring distance and speed. The equivalent event for men is the decathlon (“deka” means “ten” in Greek) with ten events (100m, 400m, 110m hurdles, 1500m, long jump, high jump, shot, discus, pole vault and javelin).
