新视野大学英语1第三版读写教程答案U4Part II key to exercisesSection APre-reading activities1Where New York City subway statinWho Wesley Austrey, 50 years old, a construction workerWhat Wesley Austrey saved Cameron Hollopeter.How Hollopeterfell to the tracks between the two rails when a train came. Wesleyjumped onto the tracks, lay on top of Hollopeter and pressed him down.31 .Yes, I think Wesley Austrey is a real hero because he showed unusual courage in times of danger. Few people would jump onto the tracks to save a stranger from a racing train.. No, I don’t think Wesley Austrey is a hero. He was behaving irresponsibly. He should have realized that he had two little children to take care of. What would his kids do if he died?!2 .I am most impressed by Wesley Austrey talking about his own fear and what he said to the stranger. From the report we can tell that Wesley Austrey loved his children and that he was fully aware of the danger he was facing. This further shows how caring and how courageous he was.. I am most impressed when Wesley Austrey said, “I don't feel like I did something extraordinary; I just saw someone who needed help”. This shows that Wesley Austrey is a warm-hearted and courageous person. When it is time for him to offer help, he just extends his hand. This is why when a stranger slipped off the platform, Wesley Austrey immediately jumped onto the tracks to save him, regardless of the extreme danger involved.3 I doubt if I would be courageous enough to jump onto the tracks to save the man. I would probably shout at the man, telling his to stay between the rails, lower his body, and keep his head down. And then I would ask the subway staff for help.Scripts:On a New York City subway, it’s hard enough to find some who’ll give up his seat to some stranger, let alone be willing to give his life for another person.Fifty-year-old Wesley Austrey was a construction worker. One day he was standing on a subway platform with his two little daughters. Right in front of them stood a man. Suddenly the man slipped off the platform edge and fell to the tracks between the two rails. The deadlights of a trian appeared. Wesley Austrey had to make a quick decision. He jumped onto the tracks. He lay on top of the man, pressing him down in a space roughtly a fot deep. There was only one half inch of space between the two men and the train. The train rolled overhead before it stopped and people got the out.Wesley Austr ey’s children were extremely scared at the scene, and Wesley Austrey himself was scared too. “I got to talk to him,” later he told news reporters. “Sir, you can’t move. I’ve got two kids up there looking for their father to come back. I don’t know you and you dn’t know me, but listen don’t panic. I’m here to save you.”The man Wesley Austrey saved is 20-year-old Cameron Hollopter. Except for a fesmall wounds, Hollopeter was doing fine. Wesley Austrey refused medical help because, he said, nothing was wrong. He visited Hollopeter in the hospital before he went to work. “I don’t feel like I did something extraordinary; I just saw someone who needed help,” he said. “I did what I felt was right.”Reading comprehensionUnderstanding the text11. Today both victims and survivors of all kinds of difficulties and tragedies are described asheroes.2. Because during a mass shooting in Tucson, Daniel Hernandez courageously ran through thedanger to save one of the victims.3. The priest meant that Dory was a hero not just because he gave his life for his wife, but alsobecause he had been known for his remarkable spirit and love of humanity when he was alive.4. First responders are people, such as police officers and firefighters, whose job is to rush towarddanger. They are supposed to be the first to arrive at the scene of accidents and deal with emergencies.5. In the past, heroes were those who acted courageously beyond the call of duty or great leaders,while today’s heroes can be average men and women.6. Eleanor McMahon considered may police officers to be heroes because they rush towarddanger to help those in need, against the human instinct to rush toward safety and away from danger.7. The inspiring stories of heroes help remind us that ordinary people can do extraordinary things,whether it is to fulfill their duties, or as part of everyday life.8. We honor heroes by recognizing their heroism and, more importantly, by working to change thecircumstances that led to their death.Critical thinking21. In my view, a hero is someone who:.is brave or even risks their lives in face of danger;. saves others in trouble;. shows great courage when others hesitate or fear;. sacrifices themselves for others2. Yes, people who give their lives for others shouldcertainly be considered heroes, no matterwhom they save-whether it is a family member or a stranger. By rescuing others, they demonstrate extraordinary courage and the rare qualities of a hero.3. Yes, I agree that “Heroism is latent in every human soul.”I th ink everyong, kids or adults, men orwomen, wants to be a hero. Some want to be a hero because they want to be respected or loved by others; they would like to gain fame or attention. Some want to be a hero because they want to feel powerful for themselves. Still some others want to be a hero just because they want to help those in nee, even by sacrificing their own interest, health or lives. No matter what motivates the hero, it is a glorious feeling when others look up to you as a hero.4. Yes, I think they should be regarded as heroes even though their efforts fail. They are heroesbecause they are brave and ready to sacrifice themselves for others. Their act and sacrifice will set a good example for other people, no matter whether their efforts have brought about desirable results or not. The most important thing is that they have tried while many other people would have neither the intention nor the courage to have a try.5. It is heroes who protect us from danger, and give us strength, comfort and confidence. To honorheroes, we should:. spread their names and stories in legends, the media, songs, movies, etc.;. put up monuments for commemoration;. set up a special day to remember them;. take good care of them and their families;. give them special honors; and.call on society to learn from them.Language focusWords in use31. involve2. fulfilled3. intense4. advocate5. circumstances6. respond7. subsequent8. confined9. reconciled10. distinctword building4Words learned New words formed-ableagree agreeable apply applicable desire desirable sustain sustainable compare comparable -anceaccept acceptance attend attendance assistassistance-mententertainmententertainassignment assignengage engagement51. assistance2. comparable3. attendance4. engagement5. applicable6. assigned7. acceptance8. entertain9. agreeable10. sustainable11. desirablebanked cloze61L 2N 3J 4F 5M 6C 7H 8K 9A 10EExpressions in use71. shield … from2. make sense of3. called on4. in need5. are/get caught up in6. relate to7. sum up8. count on9.

U校园新视野大学英语4读写教程答案(Unit 4 )

U校园新视野大学英语4读写教程答案Unit 4 Nature: To worship or to conquer Section A4-2 Text A: Achieving sustainable environmentalism Pre-reading activitiesPre-reading activities-11) A2) B3) B4) B5) APre-reading activities-21) As I understand, a "green city" is a city or town that focuses on environmentally friendly practices. It aims to improve the livability of urban surroundings and benefit the well-being of citizens living there.2) To build a green city, other measures include water quality control, efficient recycling and management of waste, use of renewable energy sources, increase of city residents' awareness of environmental protection, and easy access to products and services that make green lifestyle choices easy, such as easy access to organic products and clean transportation methods.Reading comprehensionReading comprehension-11) The rule of sane environmentalism, which holds the belief that it is only necessary to combat ecological changes that directly threaten human health and safety.2) Because they directly threaten human beings, and their consequences cannot be easily addressed.3) It indulges in overt earth worship. It is sentimental, highly selective and incompatible with the reality of natural disasters.4) The author means that he doesn't think man should indulge in nature worship because natural disasters can bring people terrible tragedies.5) The author thinks that biodiversity is necessary to the ecosystem, but it has to be sacrificed sometimes to meet more fundamental human needs.6) The author stands on the side of protecting the logging families. To him, the livelihood of the logging families is more important than the spotted owl.7) The author thinks that nature is under the supervision of us humans, rather than being our master. Humans need to respect nature as well as cultivate it. But when humans have to choose between their own interests and those of nature, they should put their own interests in the first place.8) Man should adapt to nature only when his fate and that of nature are closely connected and man's fate is put in danger. For example, ozone depletion and the greenhouse effect will threaten the living environment of man. Therefore, man has to change his behavior anddo something to stop or reduce the impact of ozone depletion and the greenhouse effect.Reading comprehension-21) I don't quite like the author's classification of "environmental necessity" and "environmental luxury".I think this classifying method is too narrow and extreme. To me, all the issues related to environmental protection need to be considered, not just the ones that threaten human health and safety. Take what the author says about the spotted owl for example. If the spotted owl becomes extinct, the whole ecosystem will be affected and we don't know what other environmental problems will arise.I like the author's classification of "environmental necessity" and "environmental luxury". To me, the world can only spend money and energy protecting things that human beings do depend on for survival. It is impossible for the world to deal with all kinds of environmental problems due to its inability to pay for the costs.2) Human activities can either cause natural disasters or make their effects much worse. For example, one reason that sandstorms, floods and landslides take place is that forests have been destroyed by humans and there are not enough trees and plants to hold the soil. To reduce such natural disasters, humans should attach great importance to planting trees, and at the same time make strict laws to protect forests so that people will not cut trees without planning.3) I think man and nature are interdependent. The reasons are as follows. First, man must realize that he is part of nature and he needs to depend on nature. Therefore man can't ignore natural laws and change nature as he likes. Second, man must understand that nature needs to be managed. If nature has a problem, man should try to solve it as soon as possible. Otherwise, man will eventually suffer from the consequences of the problem.4) Some environmental problems the world is faced with: Water pollution: A large population in the world lacks access to clean drinking water.Air pollution: The air in many cities of the world is so seriously polluted that people can hardly see a blue sky.Wildlife protection: Natural habitats of the wildlife are seriously damaged, and many wildlife species are in danger of extinction.Land erosion: Desertification in some places of the world is causing the loss of large areas of grassland every year.To sum up, these problems are caused by the following factors:People don't have strong awareness of environmental protection.People don't have a long-term vision. They hunt or cut down trees for temporary profit, but they don't realize the price they or their children have to pay in the long run.Some local governments don't make good plans about economic development.5) First, the authorities must have better foresight. Environmental protection is a long-lasting campaign and its impact can't be felt in a short term. However, governments and authorities should always keep in mind the imperative of environmental protection. Some economic benefits don't last long, but the harm to the environment may be enduring. Second, strict laws and policies should be made to ensure that the economy is not developed at the cost of the environment. For example, factories which produce heavy pollution should be closed down and punished severely so that other factories will not do the same.4-3 Text A: Language focusWords in use1. consolidate2. differentiate3. dreadful4. incompatible5. alleged6. bizarre7. correlation8. negligible9. habitats10. intelligibleWord building: Practice Word building: Practice-11) harmonious2) disastrous3) spacious4) hazardous5) virtuous6) victorious7) desirous8) adventurous9) evenly10) routinely11) consequent12) respectivelyWord building: Practice-21. victorious2. hazardous3. consequent4. adventurous5. disastrous6. evenly7. spacious8. respectively9. virtuous10. routinely11. harmonious12. desirous Banked cloze1) incompatible2) preserve3) available4) proportion5) utilized6) converted7) dreadful8) balance9) sane10) considerable Expressions in use 1. took on2. called upon3. runs against the grain4. be incompatible with5. come through6. is bound up7. differentiate between8. have struck a chord with4-4 Structure analysis & writingStructured writing: Practice参考：Have you ever been to a national park? How do you like it? Nowadays, national parks are very common in the world, and they can be found in many countries. Most people believe that national parks are necessary because they can help protect the variety of species on earth and offer people a place where they can explore nature and learn more about the environment. However, there are also different voices about the establishment of national parks.Some people are against national parks because they argue that wild areas should not be disturbed, and wild animals should be left entirely alone. But I think these people may not have realized that some wild animals and plants have become so rare that proper protection is necessary and urgent. The establishment of national parks aims to provide a safe home for native plants and animals. For instance, Wolong National Nature Reserve in Sichuan Province has provided a natural habitat for giant pandas and many other precious species.Other people oppose national parks because they worry that too much exploration of national parks can be damaging to the environment. True, extreme exploration will do harm to anything. But reasonable exploration of national parks can not only increase people's knowledge about the environment, but also is beneficial to the protection of biodiversity. The thing is, in considering building up a national park, the authorities and experts involved must plan carefully to make sure that the national park will play a significant role in protecting biodiversity. In addition, the government can use the park as a livingschool to teach people the importance of environmental protection.All in all, I agree that national parks are necessary. If we can make good use of them, we can not only protect plant and animal species, but also help people learn more about our environment.4-5 TranslationTranslationTranslation-1参考：巴洛克建筑是一种建筑风格，兴盛于16世纪晚期至18世纪中期的欧洲。

大学英语综合教程四Unit4答案[策划]

Unit 5Text comprehensionI. Decide which of the following best states the autho r’s purpose of writing.C.II. Judge. according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F. Refer to Paragraphs 1 and2.Though it is true that what interested the woman was the all-sided description of the friendship between the two characters, the plot of the movie was far from exciting; it was in many ways a slight movie..2. T. Refer to Paragraph3.3. F. Refer to Paragraph4. The shift was not simply from men to women. It in depth represented a shift from one type of friendship to another. In other words, female friendship depicted in movies nowadays was distinct in nature from male friendship portrayed in earlier movies.4. T. Refer to Paragraph 8.5. T. Refer to Paragraph 16.6. F. Refer to Paragraph 18. The author only says that in the double standard of friendship the female version was becoming accepted as the general idea for once.III. Answer the following questions.1. She thought it was a trivial movie, particularly with regard to its dull plot. At the same time she found it gentle and affecting on the ground that the movie described in detail the characteristics of the friendship between two women.2. Because in the past men were exclusive images for friendship in movies and they were presented as the only inheritor of a primitive capacity for friendship. Women, on the other hand, were portrayed choosing each other as companions just as they picked berries with little genuine friendship involved. Nowadays, the female friendship was becoming a fashionable theme of movies to take the place of the make friendship.3. The male friendship, i.e. the bonding relationship between buddies, is established on the need for co-operation in the activities that men are engaged in or in the adverse situations they are confronted with. In other words, without the need to dothings together, there would probably be no buddies at all. In contrast, the female friendship borders on love, the need for mutual emotional support. Women friends desire to be together as a result of spiritual attachment, regardless of whether they are involved in the same act or not.4. Men become buddies only when they have undergone together competitive, adverse or dangerous situations like sports games and wars, but women are not real friends unless they have exchanged three loathsome secrets. This fact shows again that the male friendship is activity-oriented while the female friendship isemotion-rooted.5. It is intended to illustrate that female friends exchange their confidences.6. Because what men described as friendship was nothing of the kind at all to the woman. As she saw it, when two women see each other only once a year, they cannot count as best friends; when two women do not call each other long distance without a real reason, they don’t count as intimates; and when two women don’t have dinner together alone without a company of their spouses, they don’t count as chums. But in such situations, men still describe them as bosom friends.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken form the text.1.
