10) Have fun. Play is good for you and helps you refocus on other pursuits. It truly does recharge your batteries. Find the balance between recreation and dedication. Neither extreme brings ultimate satisfaction. Viewing life as only a party or only a chore will never satisfy your soul. Life -- and especially college -- is an adventure. Don't get so caught up in the ultimate goal that you forget to enjoy the jourclass. Woody Allen once said that 80 percent of life is just showing up. There is no substitute for presence. Ever ask someone to take notes for you? Did you ever understand them?
What makes the difference? From my experience, there are 10 rules every freshman should know.
1) Be a warrior. Warriors are never surprised. That means listening in class, staying alert and asking questions. That means doing all the assignments on time. Go into each class expecting an unannounced quiz.

大学英语(一)Unit1课文译文和练习Unit One TextHow to Adapt to College Life Quickly课文译文如何快速适应大学生活当你第一次进入大学的时候,你会发现,大学生活和高中生活有很大区别。

在高中,我们总是依靠家长和老师帮助我们解决各种困难问题。

然而在大学,我们只能依靠自己。

除此以外,我们必须学会如何与同学、室友和睦相处。

几乎每个大学新生都经历过不同程度的紧张和焦虑情绪。

但是不用担心,现在给你一些建议,希望能帮助你尽快适应大学生活。

1、记住,不是只有你有这种情况。

你宿舍的每个人都有同样的情况。

和他们说说你的恐惧和焦虑。

他们可能也有同样的感觉,并且很乐意向你倾诉他们的感觉。

2、走出你的宿舍。

上大学的好处在于你可以与新的面孔一起重新开始生活。

他们不会知道你的过去,他们只会知道你希望他们知道的事情。

因此,尝试新的事物,不要害怕,试着展现新的个性。

弄清楚真正的自己,弄清楚你希望成为什么样的人,这是最佳的时机。

3、制定详细的学习计划。

学习计划应该包括:你的短期目标,每个阶段要阅读什么书籍,参加哪些课外活动,以及你每天的活动安排。

这会有助于你充分利用业余时间。

4、不要忘记享受大学生活!在大学里,要过得愉快,结交新朋友,和学习新知识。

而寄宿就是一个很好的方式。

和朋友们消磨时间,和学习伙伴一起努力备考。

做疯狂的事情,照相留念,分享有趣的故事----快活地渡过。

你只年轻一次!记住,你的朋友和你的父母都离你不远,只要你打一个电话就行。

记住,每个人的适应时间都是不同的。

从容以对,但最重要的是,学有所成。

全新版大学英语综合教程1课文翻译(Unit1-Unit8)

全新版大学英语综合教程1课文翻译(Unit1-Unit8)Unit 1 Growing Up为自己而写拉塞尔·贝壳从孩提时代,我还住在贝尔维尔时,我的脑子里就断断续续地转着当作家的念头,但直等到我高中三年级,这—想法才有了实现的可能。

在这之前,我对所有跟英文课沾边的事都感到腻味。

我觉得英文语法枯燥难懂。

我痛恨那些长而乏味的段落写作,老师读着受累,我写着痛苦。

弗利格尔先生接我们的高三英文课时,我就准备着在这门最最单调乏味的课上再熬上沉闷的一年。

弗利格尔先生在学生中以其说话干巴和激励学生无术而出名。

据说他拘谨刻板,完全落后于时代。

我看他有六七十岁了,古板之极。

他戴着古板的毫无装饰的眼镜,微微卷曲的头发剪得笔齐,梳得纹丝不乱。

他身穿古板的套装,白衬衣领扣外的领带打得——丝不苟。

他救着古板的尖下巴,古板的直鼻梁,说起话来—本正经,字斟句酌,彬彬有礼,活脱脱一个橱稽的老古董。

我作好准备,打算在弗利格尔先生的班上一无所获地混上—年,不少日子过去了,还真不出所料。

后半学期我们学写随笔小品文。

弗利格尔先生发下一张家庭作业纸,出了不少题供我们选择。

像“暑假二三事”那样傻乎乎的题目倒是一个也没有,但绝大多数—样乏味。

我把作文题带回家,—直没写,直到要交作业的前一天晚上。

我躺在沙发上,最终不得不面对这一讨厌的功课,便从笔记本里抽出作文题目单粗粗—看。

我的目光落在“吃意大利细面条的艺术”这个题目上。

这个题目在我脑海里唤起了一连串不同寻常的图像。

贝尔维尔之夜的清晰的回忆如潮水一般涌来,当时,我们大家—起围坐在晚餐桌旁——艾伦舅舅、我母亲、查理舅舅、多丽丝、哈尔舅舅——帕特舅妈晚饭做的是意大利细面条。

那时意大利细面条还是很少听说的异国食品。

多丽丝和我都还从来没吃过,在座的大人也是经验不足,没有—个吃起来得心应手的。

艾伦舅舅家诙谐有趣的场景全都重现在我的脑海中,我回想起来,当晚我们笑作—团,争论着该如何地把面条从盘子上送到嘴里才算合乎礼仪。

新大学英语卓越篇Unit1课文Find Your Inner Einstein全文翻译标准版

新大学英语卓越篇Unit1课文Find Your Inner Einstein全文翻译标准版

Find Your Inner Einstein找到你内心的爱因斯坦史蒂夫·钱德勒当你再次见到阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦的画像时,你要意识到画像里画的其实就是你自己,你要看着爱因斯坦的画像,说这就是我。

每个人都具备某种天才的禀赋,你不必非得擅长数学或物理才能体验到天才的思维,你只需要经常发挥你的想象力,就能体验到爱因斯坦级别的创造性思维。

然而这对于成年人来说却很难做到,因为他们已经习惯于只在一件事情上发挥想象力忧虑,成年人成天就想着事情的最坏情形,他们的想象力都用来呈现他们所担忧的各种情景。

他们没有认识到忧虑实为想象力的一种误用,人类的想象力本应有更好的用武之地,发挥想象力去创造的人通常所获的成就相比,忧心重重的人即便智商更高,其所获得的成就也绝不可能望其项背,经常发挥想象力的人成为同事们称为天才,好像天才是一种基因特质,其实更应把他们视为能够熟练运用其天赋的一般人而已。

基于这种天赋能力的认识,拿破仑曾说想象力统治世界。

还是孩童时你本能的使用你的想象力,这本该如此,你沉浸于梦幻,醉心于虚构,白天你在幻想中上游,晚上在你的右脑里,你在梦境之河上航行。

现在如果你再次回到那种自信与虚幻的状态,你会惊喜的发现,自己居然想出来,这么多既新颖又即刻可用的方案来解决问题。

爱因斯坦曾说过想象力比知识更重要,我第一次听到这句话是对其意思并未理解,我总以为更多的知识才是解决每一个棘手问题的,关键是要多学一些重要知识,所有问题都会迎刃而解,我没有意识到我真正需要学习的不是知识是技能,要主动发挥想象力的技能。

一旦掌握这种技能,我们首先要做的就是开始想想自己到底想成为何种人,关于这方面词曲作家弗雷德·奈普曾写过一句话,作为一段视频的配乐,该视频针对青少年,旨在帮助他们,去想象自己成功地做到他们想做的事情。

那就是你,在你最疯狂的梦里,做着最疯狂的事,别人都无法做到,只要你爱的只要爱恋不舍,那些梦,那些疯狂的梦终会实现。

3
随着社会的发展,人类对大自然的直接依赖越来越少,而间接的依赖却越来越多。我们远古的祖先生活在大自然的威胁及破坏力的恐惧之中,他们常常连基本的生活物资都无法获取。然而,尽管工具不甚完备,他们却能同心协力,顽强工作,并总是有所收获。在与人类的相互作用中,大自然也发生了改变。森林被破坏了,耕地面积增加了。大自然及其威力被看成是和人类敌对的东西。譬如,森林被认为是野性的和令人恐惧的,因此人类便想方设法使其面积缩小。这一切都是打着“文明”的旗号进行的,所谓“文明”,就是人类在哪里建立家园,耕耘土地,哪里的森林就被砍伐。
As society develops, man tends to become less dependent on nature directly, while indirectly his dependence grows. Ourdistant ancestorslived in fear of nature's destructive forces. Very often they were unable to obtainthe merest daily necessities.However, despite their imperfect tools, theyworked together stubbornly , collectively,and were able toattain results. Nature was also changed through interaction with man. Forests were destroyed and the area of farmland increased. Nature with itselemental forceswas regarded as something hostile to man. The forest, for example, was something wild and frightening and people tried to force it to retreat . This was all donein the name of civilization, which meant the places where man had made his home, where the earth wascultivated, where the forest had been cut down.

美国总统的住宅迄今为止,已有44人在白宫椭圆办公室履行了56届总统任期。

就在今年2月20日(星期一),我们马上要迎来又一个总统日,而且马上就要举行选举,值此之际,让我们一起看看在过去40年间我们国家最高领导人称之为“家”的地方是什么样子的。

贝拉克·奥巴马总统奥巴马一家于2005年6月以165万美元的价格购买了位于芝加哥肯伍德(Kenwood)社区格林伍德(Greenwood)大街5046号的一座6199平方英尺的双层独栋别墅。

其最终购买价低于别墅要价30万美元。

与此同时,奥巴马总统竞选支持者、商人安东尼·“托尼”·雷兹科(Antoin Tony Rezko)及妻子芮塔(Rita)以全价62.5万美元购买了紧邻奥巴马别墅的一块空地。

六个月后,奥巴马以10.45万美元的价格从雷兹科手中购进了部分空地。

(在一项联邦调查认定雷兹科犯有受贿罪后,奥巴马对《芝加哥太阳报》解释道:“尽管我竭力关注道德行为规范的特定要求,但我错误地预计了从雷兹科先生手中购买额外地产这件事所产生的社会影响,对此,我深表遗憾。

”)奥巴马位于格林伍德大街上的别墅最新估价约为119万美元。

乔治·沃克·布什乔治·沃克·布什和劳拉·布什从白宫卸任后,这对夫妇回到了普雷斯顿霍洛(Preston Hollow)社区,当布什还是德克萨斯州州长的时候他们一家就住在这里。

现在,布什一家的单层住宅位于达瑞亚(Daria Place)街10141号,面积为8501平方英尺,掩映在绿树丛中,外有大门守卫。

背朝布什官邸的是一处规模庞大的房产,该房产在《达拉斯月刊》的“达拉斯100处最贵房产”名单中名列榜首,估价为3914万美元,所有者是汤姆·希克斯(Tom Hicks')控股公司。

该公司还拥有德克萨斯游骑兵棒球队(Texas Rangers)、达拉斯星辰冰球队(Dallas Stars)以及利物浦足球俱乐部(Liverpool Football Club)的股权。

大学英语教材1课文翻译Unit 1: Introduction to EnglishLesson 1: GreetingsGreetings are the way we express goodwill when we meet or welcome someone. They are an important part of social interaction and can vary across cultures.In English-speaking countries, common greetings include "Good morning," "Good afternoon," and "Good evening." These greetings are often accompanied by a friendly smile and a firm handshake. Additionally, asking "How are you?" is a customary way to show interest in the other person's well-being.In formal situations, such as meetings or professional settings, greetings are more formal and may consist of a simple nod or a slight bow. It is important to maintain proper etiquette and show respect towards others.Understanding the appropriate greetings in different scenarios is crucial to effective communication. In English, it is considered polite to greet people when entering a room or starting a conversation. Failure to do so may be seen as impolite or rude.Furthermore, greetings may vary based on the time of day. For instance, "Good morning" is used before noon, while "Good afternoon" is suitable for the period between noon and sunset. "Good evening" is used after sunset and is typically used as a parting phrase.Learning greetings is one of the first steps in mastering a language. It not only helps you initiate conversations but also portrays your interest in others. By understanding and using appropriate greetings, you can create a positive impression and build rapport with people from different backgrounds.In conclusion, greetings play a significant role in social interactions and communication. They reflect cultural norms and contribute to establishing connections. Regardless of the language, greetings serve as a bridge between individuals, fostering mutual understanding and respect.。

大学英语读写教程1课文翻译Unit 1Lesson 1: The EarthThe Earth is our home. It is the third planet from the sun in our solar system. It is the only planet known to have life. The Earth is a beautiful and diverse place, with vast oceans, towering mountains, and lush forests.The Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old. It has a diameter of about 12,742 kilometers and a circumference of around 40,075 kilometers. It is made up of several layers, including the crust, mantle, and core.The Earth rotates on its axis, which takes approximately 24 hours to complete one full rotation. This rotation gives us day and night. The Earth also orbits around the sun, completing one orbit in about 365.25 days, giving us the concept of a year.The Earth is made up of many different ecosystems. These ecosystems support a wide variety of plants, animals, and microorganisms. It is important to protect and preserve these ecosystems to maintain the delicate balance of life on Earth.The Earth's climate is constantly changing. It experiences seasons due to the tilt of its axis. It also undergoes long-term changes, such as global warming, which is primarily caused by human activities. As inhabitants of this planet, we have a responsibility to take care of the Earth. We should reduce our carbon footprint, recycle,conserve water, and protect the natural environment. By doing so, we can ensure a sustainable future for ourselves and future generations.。

在可怕的越南战争期间,谁也不知道这些炸弹要轰炸什么目标,而他们却落在了一所有传教士们办的小孤儿院内。

2传教士和一两个孩子已经丧生,还有几个孩子受了伤,其中有一个小女孩,8岁左右,她的双腿被炸伤。

3几小时后,医疗救援小组到了。

救援小组由一名年轻的美国海军医生和一名同样年轻的海军护士组成。

他们很快发现有个小女孩伤势严重。

如果不立即采取行动,显然她就会因失血过多和休克而死亡。

4他们明白必须给小女孩输血,但是他们的医药用品很有限,没有血浆,因此需要相配血型的血。

快速的血型测定显示两名美国人的血型都不合适,而几个没有受伤的孤儿却有相配的血型。

5这位医生会讲一点越南语,忽视会讲一点法语,但只有中学的法语水平。

孩子们不会说英语,只会说一点法语。

医生和护士用少得可怜的一点共同语言,结合大量的手势,努力向这些受惊吓的孩子们解释说,除非他们能输一些血给自己的小伙伴,否则她将必死无疑。

接着问他们是否有人愿意献血来救小女孩。

6对医生和护士的请求,孩子们(只是)瞪大眼睛,一声不吭。

此时小病人生命垂危。

然而,只有这些受惊吓的孩子中有人自愿献血,他们才能够得到血。

过了好一会儿,一只小手慢慢地举了起来,然后垂了下去,一会儿又举了起来。

7 8 9“噢,谢谢,”护士用法语说。

“你叫什么名字?” “兴,”小男孩回答道。

兴很快被抱到一张床上,手臂用酒精消毒后,针就扎了进去。

在整个过程中,兴僵直地躺着,没有出声。

10过了一会儿,他发出了一声长长的抽泣,但立即用那只可以活动的手捂住了自己的脸。

11 “兴,疼吗?”医生问。

12兴默默地摇了摇头,但一会儿忍不住又抽泣起来,并又一次试图掩饰自己的哭声。

医生又问是不是插在手臂上的针弄疼了他,兴又摇了摇头。

13 但现在,偶尔的抽泣变成了持续无声的哭泣。

他紧紧地闭着眼睛,用拳头堵住嘴想竭力忍住哭泣。

Unit 1 Book 3Do you remember your first love? All those exciting and wonderful new emotions – the way your heart raced when that special person was near –those anxious, awkward moments when you didn't know what to say or do? And then (for most of us) that sad moment when for one reason or another it all came to an end … Ernest Hemingway once said, "Every love story ends as a tragedy" – but the authors of the texts in this unit have a different point of view. Text A focuses on the unexpected side effects of the author's first venture into romance, while Text B recalls the ups and downs of the author's great love for … his car! Finally, the authors of Text C offer some fascinating advice about how to successfully navigate romantic relationships.Text A How I Got SmartA common misconception amongyoungsters attending school is that theirteachers were child prodigies. Who else buta bookworm, with none of the normal kid'stendency to play rather than study, wouldgrow up to be a teacher anyway?I've tried desperately to explain to my students that the image they have of me as an enthusiastic devotee of books and homework during my adolescence was a bit out of focus. On the contrary, I hated compulsory education with a passion. I could never quite accept the notion of having to go to school while the fish were biting.But in my sophomore year, something beautiful and exciting happened. Cupid aimed his arrow and struck me right in the heart. All at once, I enjoyed going to school, if only to gaze at the lovely face in English II.My princess sat near the pencil sharpener, and that year I ground up enough pencils to fuel a campfire. Alas, Debbie was far beyond my wildest dreams. We were separated not only by five rows of desks, but by about 50 I.Q. points. She was the top student in English II, the apple of Mrs. Larrivee's eye.Occasionally, Debbie would catch me staring at her, and she would flash a smile that radiated intelligence and quickened my heartbeat. It was a smile that signaled hope and made me temporarily forget the intellectual gulf that separated us.I schemed desperately to bridge thatgulf. And one day, as I was passing thesupermarket, an idea came to me. A sign in thewindow announced that the store was offering thefirst volume of a set of encyclopedias at thespecial price of 29 cents. The remaining volumeswould cost $2.49 each.I purchased Volume I -- Aardvark to Asteroid -- and began my venture into the world of knowledge. I would henceforth become a seeker of facts.I would become Chief Brain in English II and sweep my princess off herfeet with a surge of erudition. I had it allplanned.My first opportunity came one day in thecafeteria line. I looked behind me and there shewas.“Hi,” she sai d.After a pause, I wet my lips and said, “Know where anchovies come from?”She seemed surprised. “No, I don't.”I breathed a sigh of relief. “The anchovy lives in salt water and is rarely found in fresh water.” I had to talk fast, so that I co uld get all the facts in before we reached the cash register. “Fishermen catch anchovies in the Mediterranean Sea and along the Atlantic coast near Spain and Portugal.”“How fascinating,” said Debbie, shaking her head in disbelief.It was obvious that I had made quite animpression.A few days later, during a fire drill,I casually went up to her and asked, “Ever beento the Aleutian Islands?”“Never have,” she replied.“Might be a nice place to visit, but I certainly wouldn't want to live there,” I said.“Why not?” said Debbie, playing right into my hands.“Well, the climate is forbidding. There are no trees on any of the 100 or more islands in the group. The ground is rocky and very little plant life can grow on it.”“I don't think I'd even care to visit,” she said.The fire drill was over and we began to file into the building, so I had to step it up to get the natives in. “The Aleuts are short and sturdy and have dark skin and black hair. They live on fish, and they trap blue foxes and seals for their valuable fur.”Debbie's eyes widened in amazement.One day I was browsing through the library.I spotted Debbie sitting at a table, absorbed in acrossword puzzle. She was frowning, apparentlystumped on a word. I leaned over and asked if I couldhelp.“Four-letter word for Oriental female servant,” Debbie said.“Try amah,” I said, quick as a flash.Debbie filled in the blanks, then turned to stare at me in amazement. “I don't believe it,” she said. “I just don't believe it.”And so it went, that glorious, joyous, romantic sophomore year. Debbie seemed to relish our little conversations and hung on my every word.Naturally, the more I read, the more my confidencegrew.In the classroom, too, I was gradually makingmy presence felt. One day, during a discussion ofColeridge's “The Ancient Mariner”, we came acrossthe word albatross.“Can anyone tell us what an albatross is?” asked Mrs. Larrivee.My hand shot up. “The albatross is a large bi rd that lives mostly in the ocean regions below the equator, but may be found in the north Pacific as well. The albatross measures as long as four feet and has the greatest wingspread of any bird. It feeds on fish and shellfish. Thealbatross has an enormous appetite, and when it's full it has trouble getting into the air again.”There was a long silence in the room. Mrs. Larrivee couldn't quite believe what she had just heard. I sneaked a look at Debbie and gave hera big wink. She beamed proudly and winked back.What I failed to perceive was that Debbie allthis while was going steady with a junior from aneighboring school -- a basketball player with a C+average. The revelation hit me hard, and for a whileI felt like forgetting everything I had learned. Ihad saved enough money to buy Volume II --Asthma toBullfinch -- but was strongly tempted to invest in a basketball instead.I felt not only hurt, but betrayed. Like Agamemnon, but with lessdrastic consequences, thank God.In time I recovered from my wounds. The next yearDebbie moved from the neighborhood and transferred toanother school. Soon she became no more than a memory.Although the original incentive was gone, Icontinued poring over the encyclopedias, as well as an increasing number of other books. Having tasted of the wine of knowledge, I could not now alter my course. For:“A little knowledge is a dangerous thing:Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring.”So wrote Alexander Pope, Volume XIV -- Paprika to Pterodactyl.斯蒂夫· 普罗迪上学的孩子们中间有一种普遍的错误想法,即认为他们的老师当年都是些神童。

Unit one 绿化,永无止境【1】环保主义思想已经深深的扎根于校园。

你可以看到环保运动已经蔓延到了全国,从加利福利亚大学戴维斯分校的“零浪费”运动场到纽约州瓦瑟学院07级学生献给学校的价值10000美元的太阳能电池板。

环保意识已经深入到同学们的内心,他们通过开展一些竞赛活动来推进回收再利用,并且大幅减少学生宿舍能源的使用。

学校里还开设了一些与环境相关的课程与专业,甚至还设立了一些奖学金。

这些新的举措是很有意义的。

高等教育明确定位,不仅是要为社会培养有环保意识的公民,还要培养环保工程师,环保建筑师和环保政策的制定者。

康奈尔大学的校长David Skorton说得好:“可持续发展势在必行。

”【2】想要寻找环保运动已经广泛开展的证据,只要关注全国各大学都热衷参与RecycleMania 竞赛就能找到答案。

2008年的冠军不是像哈佛和斯坦福大学这些以环保著称的著名学府,而是在密歇根州的一所微不足道的大学——卡拉马祖大学。

在十周的比赛中,卡拉马祖大学的同学们总共回收利用了59%的废物。

(哈佛是27%,斯坦福是30%)。

环保社团的成员们还开展了名为“宿舍风暴”的活动。

他们在每个寝室都埋伏了同学来专门观察和宣传那些减少浪费的行为。

他们还收集校内垃圾桶内的可回收材料——甚至运送塑料泡沫和废旧电脑到公司以便加工后再利用。

他们把废弃的书拆开来使得纸张可以再利用。

一些旧的椅子、杯子、扬声器和钢琴都在校园的二手货交易中重获新生,满屋子都是一些二手货,当然还是免费的。

【3】环保建筑也如春笋般突然出现在校园中,从杜克大学里带有环保屋顶的“智慧屋” (一间同时可作为绿色生活实验室的宿舍)到加州大学在默赛德新校区,那里的所有建筑都达到了美国绿色建筑委员会制定的标准。

缅因州的福尔曼大学也实施了一项最不寻常的计划。

在2008年6月,福尔曼大学与南方生活杂志协力创建了名为“绝壁村屋”的太阳能展示区。

它占地3400平方英尺,在将来也许会成为环保主义者的梦想住宅。

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。

Unit 1 Growing UPPart Text A Writing for MyselfⅡWhen we are writing we are often told to keep our readers in mind, to shape what we say to fit their tastes and interests. But there is one reader in particular who should not be forgotten. Can you guess who? Russell Baker surprised himself and everyone else when he discovered the answer.我们写作时常常被告诫,脑子里要有读者,笔者所云一定要符合读者的口味和兴趣。

但有一位读者特别不该忘记。

你能猜出是谁吗?当拉塞尔·贝克找到这个问题的答案时,他自己和别人都感到大为惊讶。

Writing for MyselfRussell Baker1The idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville, but it wasn't until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold. Until then I've been bored by everything associated with English courses. I found English grammar dull and difficult. I hated the assignments to turn out long, lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write.为自己而写拉塞尔·贝克从孩提时代,我还住在贝尔维尔时,我的脑子里就断断续续地转着当作家的念头,但直等到我高中三年级,这一想法才有了实现的可能。

Unit 1不要让别人偷走你的梦想1 我有个朋友叫蒙蒂·罗伯兹,他在圣伊斯德罗有个牧马场。

他把住宅借给我举办募款活动,为问题青少年项目筹备基金。

2上次我在那里时,他介绍我时这样说:“知道我为什么让杰克借用我的房子吗?”这要从一个男孩的故事说起。

男孩的父亲是位巡回驯马师,经常在不同的马厩、赛马场、农场和牧场之间来回奔波。

因此,男孩的中学学业经常中断。

读毕业班时,有一天老师让写一篇文章,讲述长大之后的理想。

3那晚他写了七张纸,描述他的梦想,那就是拥有一个属于自己的牧马场。

他很详细地描写了他的梦想,甚至画了一张占地200英亩的马场的设计图,上面标有所有建筑物、马厩、跑道等的位置。

在这个200英亩的梦想农场中他要建一个4000平方英尺的房子,并且画了一个详细的平面图。

4他花了好大心血把文章写完,第二天交给了老师。

两天后他拿回了文章。

见文章的第一页上打了一个又红又大的F,旁边还写了一行字:“下课后来见我。

”5这个满怀梦想的男孩下课后去见了老师,问道:“您为什么给我不及格?”6老师说:“对你这样的一个男孩来说,这个梦想是不现实的。

你没有钱。

你来自一个巡回驯马师的家庭,你没有背景。

拥有一个牧马场需要大量的钱,你要买地,一开始得买繁殖用的马群,以后还得付高额的配种费。

你不可能做到这些。

”然后老师又加了一句,“如果你愿意重新写一篇目标比较现实的作文,我会重新考虑你的分数。

”7男孩回到家后,冥思苦想了很长时间。

他问他的父亲应该怎么做。

父亲说:“听着,儿子,你要自己拿主意。

但这对你来说是个非常重要的决定。

”8男孩想了整整一个礼拜,最后又把原稿一字未改地交给了老师。

他告诉老师说:“您可以保留这个‘F’,但我将保留我的梦想。

”9说到这里,蒙蒂转向众人,说道:“我之所以告诉你们这个故事,是因为你们现在就坐在这个占地200英亩的牧马场中的4000平方英尺的房子里。

那篇作文我一直保留到现在,它就镶在壁炉上方。

”他接着又说道:“下面是这个故事最为精彩的部分:两年前这位老师带领30个孩子到我的牧场来野营一周。

Book 1 Unit 1 Writing for Myself为自己而写Russell BakerThe idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville, but it wasn't until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold. Until then I'd been bored by everything associated with English courses. I found English grammar dull and difficult.

在这之前,我对所有跟英文课沾边的事都感到腻味。

我觉得英文语法枯燥难懂。

我痛恨那些长而乏味的段落写作,老师读着受累,我写着痛苦。

When our class was assigned to Mr. Fleagle for third-year English I anticipated another cheerless year in that most tedious of subjects. Mr. Fleagle had a reputation among students for dullness and inability to inspire. He was said to be very formal, rigid and hopelessly out of date. To me he looked to be sixty or seventy and excessively prim. He wore primly severe eyeglasses, his wavy hair was primly cut and primly combed. He wore prim suits with neckties set primly againstthe collar buttons of his white shirts. He had a primly pointed jaw, a primly straight nose, and a prim manner of speaking that was so correct, so gentlemanly, that he seemed a comic antique.弗利格尔先生接我们的高三英文课时,我就准备着在这门最最单调乏味的课上再熬上沉闷的一年。

新标准大学英语综合教程1 课文翻译新标准英语 1 课文翻译Unit 1 大一新生日记星期日从家里出发后,我们开车开了很长一段时间才到达我住的宿舍楼。

我进去登记。

宿舍管理员给了我一串钥匙,并告诉了我房间号。

我的房间在6楼,可电梯坏了。

等我们终于找到8号房的时候,妈妈已经涨红了脸,上气不接下气。

我打开门锁,我们都走了进去。

但爸爸马上就从里面钻了出来。

这个房间刚刚够一个人住,一家人都进去,肯定装不下。

我躺在床上,不动弹就可以碰到三面墙。

幸亏我哥哥和我的狗没一起来。

后来,爸爸妈妈就走了,只剩下我孤零零一个人。

周围只有书和一个箱子。

接下来我该做什么?星期一早上,有一个为一年级新生举办的咖啡早茶会。

我见到了我的导师,他个子高高的,肩膀厚实,好像打定了主意要逗人开心。

“你是从很远的地方来的吗?”他问我。

他边说话边晃悠脑袋,咖啡都洒到杯托里了。

“我家离爱丁堡不太远,开车大约6个小时,”我说。

“好极了!”他说,接着又走向站在我旁边的那个女孩儿。

“你是从很远的地方来的吗?”他问。

但不等那女孩儿作出任何回答,他就说到,“好极了!”然后就继续向前走。

他啜了一口咖啡,却惊讶地发现杯子是空的。

妈妈打来电话。

她问我是不是见到了导师。

星期二我觉得有点儿饿,这才意识到我已经两天没吃东西了。

我下楼去,得知一天三餐我可以在餐厅里吃。

我下到餐厅排进了长队。

“早餐吃什么?”我问前面的男生。

“不知道。

我来得太晚了,吃不上早餐了。

这是午餐。

”午餐是自助餐,今天的菜谱是鸡肉、米饭、土豆、沙拉、蔬菜、奶酪、酸奶和水果。

前面的男生每样儿都取一些放到托盘上,付了钱,坐下来吃。

我再也不觉得饿了。

妈妈打电话来。

她问我有没有好好吃饭。

星期三早上9点钟我要去听一个讲座。

我醒时已经8:45了。

竟然没有人叫我起床。

奇怪。

我穿好衣服,急匆匆地赶到大讲堂。

我在一个睡眼惺忪的女生旁边坐下。

她看了看我,问:“刚起床?”她是怎么看出来的?讲座进行了1个小时。

结束时我看了看笔记,我根本就看不懂自己写的字。

学外语
学习外语是我一生中最艰苦也是最有意义的经历之一。

虽然时常遭遇挫折,但却非常有价值。

我学外语的经历始于初中的第一堂英语课。

老师很慈祥耐心,时常表扬学生。

由于这种积极的教学方法,我踊跃回答各种问题,从不怕答错。

两年中,我的成绩一直名列前茅。

到了高中后,我渴望继续学习英语。

然而,高中时的经历与以前大不相同。

以前,老师对所有的学生都很耐心,而新老师则总是惩罚答错的学生。

每当有谁回答错了,她就会用长教鞭指着我们,上下挥舞大喊:“错!错!错!”没有多久,我便不再渴望回答问题了。

我不仅失去了回答问题的乐趣,而且根本就不想再用英语说半个字。

好在这种情况没持续多久。

到了大学,我了解到所有学生必须上英语课。

与高中老师不同,大学英语老师非常耐心和蔼,而且从来不带教鞭!不过情况却远不尽如人意。

由于班大,每堂课能轮到我回答的问题寥寥无几。

上了几周课后,我还发现许多同学的英语说得比我要好得多。

我开始产生一种畏惧感。

虽然原因与高中时不同,但我却又一次不敢开口了。

看来我的英语水平要永远停步不前了。

直到几年后我有机会参加远程英语课程,情况才有所改善。

这种课程的媒介是一台电脑、一条电话线和一个调制解调器。

我很快配齐了必要的设备并跟一个朋友学会了电脑操作技术,于是我每周用5到7天在网上的虚拟课堂里学习英语。

网上学习并不比普通的课堂学习容易。

它需要花许多的时间,需要学习者专心自律,以跟上课程进度。

我尽力达到课程的最低要求,并按时完成作业。

我随时随地都在学习。

不管去哪里,我都随身携带一本袖珍字典和笔记本,笔记本上记着我遇到的生词。

我学习中出过许多错,有时是令人尴尬的错误。

有时我会因挫折而哭泣,有时甚至想放弃。

但我从未因别的同学英语说得比我快而感到畏惧,因为在电脑屏幕上作出回答之前,我可以根据自己的需要花时间去琢磨自己的想法。

突然有一天我发现自己什么都懂了,更重要的是,我说起英语来灵活自如。

尽管我还是常常出错,还有很多东西要学,但我已尝到了刻苦学习的甜头。

学习外语对我来说是非常艰辛的经历,但它又无比珍贵。

它不仅使我懂得了艰苦努力的意义,而且让我了解了不同的文化,让我以一种全新的思维去看待事物。

学习一门外语最令人兴奋的收获是我能与更多的人交流。

与人交谈是我最喜欢的一项活动,新的语言使我能与陌生人交往,参与他们的谈话,并建立新的难以忘怀的友谊。

由于我已能说英语,别人讲英语时我不再茫然不解了。

我能够参与其中,并结交朋友。

我能与人交流,并能够弥合我所说的语言和所处的文化与他们的语言和文化之间的鸿沟。

网络学习的成功秘诀
虽然常规的学校依然存在,但虚拟课堂在今天的教学领域中起着重要的作用。

随着学生就业机会的迅速增多,越来越多不同年龄层的人开始意识到这种在家就学的网上学习方式。

然而,网络学生需要具备一些特别的素质才能取得成功。

以下是网上学生要取得成功必备的一些理想素质。

1.与人分享生活、工作及学习经验,这些是网上学习的一部分。

许多人发现网上学习需要他们运用各自的经验,同时又为他们提供了相互交流的场所。

这一交流场所消除了一些学生自我表达的视觉障碍。

此外,学生在答题之前有时间进行思考,这就使得网上环境开放而友好。

2. 能通过书写进行交流。

虚拟课堂的交流几乎都是书面形式。

因而很重要的一点是学生要具有书面表达能力。

有些学生书面表达能力差,有待提高,可以在网上学习之前提高或将其作为网上学习的一部分。

这常常需要他们加倍努力。

不管是单独学习还是小组学习,学生们就学习内容交流观点和见解,并展开讨论,同时了解其他同学的意见。

这样,学生可以从同龄人那里得到启发,既跟老师学,又互相学习。

3. 说出你的困难。

记住,虚拟课堂里老师看不见学生。

这就意味学生必须直接明了地表达自己的看法和要求。

如果碰到技术方面的问题,或在理解课程中遇到困难,必须大胆说出来,否则任何人都无从知晓问题所在。

如果某人不理解某个问题,或许别人也有同样的问题。

如果有哪个学生能解决,他(她)也许就会帮助你。

学生在给他人解释问题时,自己对该问题的认识也加深了。

4. 认真对待课程。

网上学习并不比课堂学习容易。

事实上,许多学生说它需要花更多的时间和努力。

网络课程的要求不低于其他任何一种优质课程。

然而,取得成功的学生认为网上学习是一种便捷的受教育方式,但并不容易。

晚上或周末,为了完成作业,许多网络学生在电脑前一坐就是几个小时。

别人已完成作业和学习,开始玩耍,而此时网络学生却很可能还在上课。

他们每门课程每周要上4到15小时。

5. 把批判性思维和决策作为网上学习的一部分。

网络课程要求学生根据事实和经验做出决定。

对学生来讲,理解并消化信息,并通过批判性思维做出正确的决定是十分必要的。

在积极的网络环境中,学生从老师、同学那里感受到自己的价值,对自己的学习也感到满意。

6. 三思而后答。

在虚拟课堂上做出有意义、高质量的回答是网上学习的重要部分。

要花时间斟酌并仔细作答,提倡对不同观点进行验证和质疑。

网络学生往往并不总是对的;他们应做好准备,迎接挑战。

7. 跟上课程进度。

网上学习通常是循序渐进的,要求学生专心投入。

与网络课程保持同步,并按时完成所有功课至关重要。

一旦落后就很难赶上。

学生要有成功的欲望,而且也要渴望这种经历。

老师可能会与学生面对面交流,提供帮助并提醒他们跟上进度的必要性。

正如许多优秀教师并不能有效地用网络辅助教学一样,并不是所有学生都具备在网上学习中取得成功所需的素质。

具备上述素质的人通常能够成为优秀的网络学生。

一旦拥有这些素质,网上学习说不定将是你最有价值的发现之一。
