《新视野大学英语读写教程2》各单元Banked cloze答案

Unit 1The Internet has made English learning much easier. English learners used to be obliged to spend their time in libraries looking for the books that would help them in their language studies. It was very inconvenient because a lot of materials could only be found in tedious and uninteresting textbooks and readers. But today authentic content on a variety of subjects is only a click away. This is especially beneficial for those who wants to learn English earnestly.In order to achieve fluency in English, you need to be comfortable using at least 10, 000 words. The abundant materials on the Internet make it possible for you to choose appropriate content to read and listen to. These materials can be adjusted to your level if you input some key words in the search engine. But how can you remember the bulk of unfamiliar words?In this case, the Internet evidently makes it easier to learn vocabulary. You can use online dictionaries to instantly find out their grammatical functions and the specific meaning of these words. The Internet helps you to efficiently accumulate vocabulary based on lively and interesting language content, which greatly reduces your distress caused by inability to remember the new words. The efficiency of this vocabulary learning is one of the reasons why the Internet has become an ideal place to learn English.Unit 2Through exploration of the humanities, we learn how to think creatively and critically, to analyze, and to ask questions. Because these skills allow us to gain new insight into everything from poetry and paintings to business models and politics, humanistic subjects have been at the heart of a liberal arts education since the ancient Greeks first used them to educate their citizens.Research into the human experience helps to boost our knowledge about our world. Through the work of humanities scholars, we learn about the values of different cultures, about what goes into making a work of art, and about the mystery of how history is made. Their efforts depict the great accomplishments of the past, help us understand the world today, and give us tools to imagine the prospect of our future.Today, humanistic knowledge continues to promote the ideal foundation for exploring and understanding the human experience. Learning another language might help to invest you with great insights as well as gain much appreciation of different cultures. Taking a close look at a sculpture might make you think about how an artist's life affected his creative decisions. Reading a book from another region of the world might help you speculate about the meaning of democracy. Listening to history courses might give you a clearer picture of what the future will be like.Unit 3There is a special life stage that our generation goes through. It is the transition period, during which we move from teenage to adolescence. We learn who we are and what we stand for and what inspires us. Also, in this period we are saddled with a lot of pressure from our parents who want us to make something out of ourselves.My parents have already expressed feelings of anxiety over my future with academics and life. When I expressed to them recently that I would not mind graduating in five years instead of four in order to study abroad to acquaint myself with the world, they seemed so shocked. That idea sounded foreign and to them was equivalent to lack of ambition.Apart from that, my mother has expressed to me that she is worried that I am not searching for a boyfriend. I resent this stupid idea of marrying out of college since it does not suit me one bit. Women today can get what they want out of life without a man, even children, as it becomes more acceptable for women to adopt children.I personally want to stay in school as long as I can to reinforce my academic work, possibly complete a law degree and start a career, and then after, and only after, begin to think about shifting to marriage. If my math is correct, that means I will be more or less 'ready' for marriage at the age of 29 or 30, the age when my mother had me.Unit 4Traditional dating is a self-paced, general meeting of two people. The two usually commence with spending extra time together, getting to know one another and seeing how tempting they could be to each other. A good example is a man meeting a woman and sensing her charm. He then extends a formal invitation for a date. With traditional dating, you get to go at a steady pace, allowing yourself and your date to get to know each other through extensive contact.There are many components that can be expected from traditional dates. Men, who are supposed to display these traditional values, will open the door for the woman, stand up when she leaves the table, pay for everything, and proceed to the next move. In the1950s, a man would usually ask a woman out several days ahead for a specific date and time. If she accepted, they would arrange for a time to pick her up. He would then take her to a dinner and a movie.Today the rules of traditional dating are less clear. Twenty years ago, if a young lady asked a men out on a date, it was thought to be weird. Now, women are being encouraged to take the initiative and ask men out. A date may consist of a brief meeting at a café or a trip to the local art museum. Men often pay on the first date, but the woman may offer to go Dutch. The traditional dating style has been found much less common now.Unit 5To spend or save is a question which many people have. There is always a(n) dilemma whether one should spend the money that he has earned or save that money for the future. Well, there is no explicit answer to the question as different people have different perspectives on their life, and that is the reason why some people tend to spend all the money earned while others retain control over their money.People who spend all the money do not think much about the future. The only thing that they enjoy doing most is to derive pleasure from spending money. For example, if they like a particular car, mobile phone or laptop, they will buy it without giving it a thought. For them, the most important thing is to satisfy their material appetite. People who have their first job or who haven't married often fall in this category.In the long run, saving is a good option for one's life as saving helps an individual to plan for future urgent needs. That is also the reason why many people save money for a rainy day. Individuals who can suspend their spending save money successfully. Instead of buying on impulse, they delay their purchasing decision and won't be easily manipulated by commercial ads. Individuals who have responsibility for their family belong to this category.Unit 6Simplifying is not necessarily about less. It can be about more: more time, more enjoyment, more accomplishment, and more of what profits you. If you do a lot of things that don't bring you joy or support your long-term plan, then doing less of that kind of things makes sense because you can't preserve everything. The purpose of simplifying is to remove what's not important.To understand what should be discarded, try to think of activities and things as either assets or obligations. An asset is something that is valuable. Some corresponding examples are stocks, bonds, buildings, land, gold, etc. , but a little more broadly, an asset is anything that can strengthen and motivate you, moving you closer to your goals. However, obligations are debts. An obligation is anything that weakens you, moves you farther from your goals, provides negative stress, creates anxiety, and decreases your health.Then how can you implement the idea of simplifying? Think about your daily activities and start with just one area. For example, you may begin with obligation by making a long list of your daily activities. Your list may revolve around such routines as paying bills and planning a birthday party for a friend, etc. Do the activities get you closer to your goals? If not, modify the list. Remove what is unnecessary in order to concentrate more on something important in your life.Unit 7It's obvious that women have come a long way as successful professionals. Women in the workplace are flourishing as an increased number of women have made their presence felt in many industries and professions. The sector of the female workforce has expanded with more and more strength and thus has its genuine importance in the professional world.Whether they like it or not, men have to accept that women are marching up the management ladder confidently and diplomatically. Women used to be much more "quiet and passive" due to the relatively small number of female employees in comparison to males. Women today, on the other hand, have begun seeking their administrative positions by using all their powers of intelligence.Men are hierarchical and jealous of the "beauty power" that allows women to get certain things based on their physical assets. Even though there is a(n) dispute whethermany professional females got into positions of power by using their appearance to their advantage, the valid fact is the majority of women have worked hard to achieve their desired success.Women were considered as bystanders in the workplace for many years and it was believed that the only jobs that they could handle were those of teachers or secretaries, but today's women can not only hold their own positions in the workplace, but they also have the dual task of raising their families.Unit 8The animal rights movement is a social movement which seeks an end to using animals in the research, food, clothing, and entertainment industries, hence being called animal liberation. It advocates the idea that the most basic interests of non-human creatures should be afforded the same consideration as those of human beings.Advocates lobby for animal rights from different aspects, ranging from the focus on animal suffering in laboratories to the argument that insists on not casting animals as properties of human beings. Despite the different approaches, advocates broadly consent to the opinion that animals should be viewed as non-human members of the moral community and should be omitted from being food, clothing, entertainment, or research subjects. The idea of awarding rights to animals wins the support of several prominent scholars.However, some critics argue that animals are unable to enter into a social contract or moral compass and for that reason cannot be granted rights. Only humans have duties and, therefore, only humans have rights. There is nothing wrong or evil about using animals as resources so long as there is no unnecessary suffering. From within the animal rights movement itself, there has also been criticism of certain forms of animal rights activism, in particular the destruction of fur farms and animal laboratories.。

新视野大学英语读写教程第二册(第二版)Pre-reading听力原文Unit 1 第一单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesTime is the same in all places, but people’s relationship with time is different from country to country. In the United States, time is a real, precious resource, and every minute counts. People here are always in a rush and under pressure. There are no short conversations or small exchanges with strangers because people think it is a waste of time. Does this sound like your country? If it does not, and if you don’t think you would like such a place, you would most likely be unhappy in the United States, where doing things quickly is seen as a skill.1. Time.2. Short conversations or small exchanges with strangers.3. (Open-ended.)Unit 2 第二单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesWhen I think back about the many people who have influenced me during my life, I often think of one person who showed his passion through his commitment to my success. I think of my coach, the man who taught and inspired me not only how to run the mile as fast as I could, but also how to work at something a little every day until greatness is achieved. Through his continuous efforts, I gradually came to an understanding of the meaning of commitment, which is really what love is all about.1. Her coach.2. How to run the mile as fast as she could and how to work at something a little every day until greatness is achieved.3. (Open-ended.)Unit 3 第三单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesGail and Mark were from different cultural and racial background. They had been together for two years and had learned to understand and respect each other. Recently they decided to marry and they told the news to Gail’s parents. To their surprise, they met with some resistance. Gail’s mother was worried that they might be ma rrying for the wrong reasons and advised her daughter to wait. Gail’s father also opposed the marriage because he thought that Mark was marrying his daughter so that he could remain in the United States. Such concerns are understandable. After all, marriage across nations may have its problem of one kind or another.1. Gail’s mother was worried that they might be marrying for the wrong reason.2. Mark wanted to marry Gail so that he could remain in the United States.3. (Open-ended.)Unit 4 第四单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesI wrote a story about love, and I hope you like it. The story is about a young soldier who is waiting to see a woman he has fallen in love with. I suppose it’s a lot like my other stories in that it has a happy ending. Y ou might laugh at me for writing stories that are so sweet. But, you see, I am a deep believer in love, and I am hopeful about everyone finding it. Without love, I really don’t know what the purpose of living would be.4. He is waiting to see a woman he has fallen in love with.5. A happy ending.6. (Open-ended.)Unit 5第五单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesToday, I want to talk about the historic opportunity we now have to protect our children from an even more deadly threat: smoking. Smoking kills more people every day than AIDS, alcohol, car accidents, murders, drugs and fires combined. Nearly 90% percent of those smokers lit their first cigarette before they turned 18. In the past few years we’ve worked to stop our children from smoking before they start, to red uce their access to tobacco products, andto restrict tobacco companies from advertising to young people. If we do these, we’ll cut teen smoking by almost half over the next five years.1. Before they turned 18.2. To reduce children’s access to tobacco pr oducts, and to restrict tobacco companies from advertising to your people.3. ( Open-ended)自由作答,陈述各自的观点.Unit 6 第六单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesPre-reading ActivitiesThere are various reasons for our final decision on what name to give to a baby. For some it may simply because they come across a name that they feel is “it”. But for most people it may be a process of careful selection based on meaning, tradition, or parents’ wishes for their child. Whatever the naming method, a given name follow s the child throughout his or her life.How can parents decide on a name that will satisfy them? Consider the following: First, consider the area the child will grow up in when selecting a name. Second, choose a name based on some personal meaning so when the child asks why they’re named so, the parents will have a reasonable explanation. Finally, before deciding on a name, get opinions of people around! Chances are, if your friends and family members look shocked when you share your name selection, your child will probably be horrified as well.1.Meaning, tradition, or parents’wishes for their child.2. Three. Get opinions of people around.3. (Open-ended.)Unit 7 第七单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesStress can kill you. Being tense can damage your heart, so it is wise to take charge of your life and realize you cannot control everything. But you can control stress which is caused by fear, uncertainty, doubt, and lack of control. Anger may also be the root of this stress, especially for hard-working professional women and people with no goals in life. To relax and take control of your life, try the NICE factors: new, interesting, challenging experiences. And follow Ben Franklin’s example by writing down the major goals you want to achieve in your life. For the problems over which you have no control, you have to learn to go with the flow.1.Stress can be caused by fear, uncertainty, doubt, lack of control, and anger..2. The NICE factors are new, interesting, challenging experiences.3. (open-ended.)Unit 8 第八单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesWhat is life about? We work hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health, time with our family, the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love. One day when we look back, we will realize that we don’t really need that much. We then will realize how much we have missed in life! Work definitely is not the whole of life. Work is meant to keep us living so that we enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life.Life is a balance of work and play, family and personal time. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the aim of human existence. So, live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy life!1.Our health, time with our family, the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.2. Happiness.3. (open-ended.)Unit 9 第九单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesI wasn’t the brightest kid in my graduating class. I didn’t even attend a famous school. What I did have, though, was a supportive family, and with their help, I was able to become one of the top lawyers in the state of Floridaand then a Florida State Supreme Court Justice. And you know what? It wasn’t as hard as you may think. It started with a clear set of rules: always get up early, always work hard, always do things honestly, always try to improve on the day before and never give up. When I was younger, I didn’t always remember the rules myself, so my father had to remind me. After a while, though, the rules became habit and everything else sort of fell into place.1. He owed his success to his supportive family.2. The rules were: always get up early, always work hard, always do things honestly, always try to improve on the day before, and never give up.3. (Open-end.) 开放性问题,可按自己的想法回答。

U2 AA child's clutter awaits an adult's return儿时百宝箱老大归家梦I watch her back her new truck out of the driveway. The vehicle is too large, too expensive. She'd refused to consider a practical car with good gas efficiency and easy to park. It's because of me, I think. She bought it to show me that she could. 我看着她在车道上倒着她的新卡车。

车太大,而且太贵。

她就是不愿意考虑买辆开起来省油、停起来省心的实用型汽车。

我想,原因在我。

她买这辆车就是为了让我看看她的能耐。

"I'm 18," she'd told me so often that my teeth ached. "I am an adult!"“我18 岁了,”她经常这样对我说,以至于听得我牙都疼了。

“我是成年人了!”I thought, is that true? Just yesterday you watched some cartoons. What changed between yesterday and today?我心想,真的吗?昨天你还在看动画片呢。

今天和昨天又能有多大的变化?Today she's gone, off to be an adult far away from me. I'm glad she's gone. It means she made it, and that I'm finally free of 18 years of responsibilities. And yet I wonder if she could take good care of herself.今天她走了,远离我去寻求成年人的独立。

新视野大学英语第三版读写教程第二册Unit2课文及翻译

U2 AA child's clutter awaits an adult's return儿时百宝箱老大归家梦I watch her back her new truck out of the driveway. The vehicle is too large, too expensive. She'd refused to consider a practical car with good gas efficiency and easy to park. It's because of me, I think. She bought it to show me that she could. 我看着她在车道上倒着她的新卡车。

车太大,而且太贵。

她就是不愿意考虑买辆开起来省油、停起来省心的实用型汽车。

我想,原因在我。

她买这辆车就是为了让我看看她的能耐。

"I'm 18," she'd told me so often that my teeth ached. "I am an adult!"“我18 岁了,”她经常这样对我说,以至于听得我牙都疼了。

“我是成年人了!”I thought, is that true? Just yesterday you watched some cartoons. What changed between yesterday and today?我心想,真的吗?昨天你还在看动画片呢。

今天和昨天又能有多大的变化?Today she's gone, off to be an adult far away from me. I'm glad she's gone. It means she made it, and that I'm finally free of 18 years of responsibilities. And yet I wonder if she could take good care of herself.今天她走了,远离我去寻求成年人的独立。
