flash of light that leaves you a changed person--not only changed, but changed for the better.the most inspiring and gratifying fact of life is the unexpected spark of enlightenment that makes you different anda better person than before.2. he came across the street, finally, muffled in his ancient overcoat, shapeless felt hat pulled down over his bald head, looking more like an energetic gnome than an eminent psychiatrist.at last he walked over from the other side of the street,wrapped in his old-fashioned overcoat, his bald head coveredby a shapeless felt hat. he looked like a dwarfish old man full of energy rather than a well-known psychiatrist.3. the woman who spoke next had never married because ofa sense of obligation to her widowed mother; she recalledbitterly all the marital chances she had let go by.the next speaker on the tape was a woman who had remained single because she thought she was obliged to take care of her mother who was a widow. she still remembered and told others miserably about all the chances of marriage she had missed.4. in the end, if you let it become a habit, it can become a real roadblock, an excuse for not trying any more.eventually, if you form a habit of saying “if only”, the phrasecan really turn to an obstruction, providing you with an excuse for giving up trying anything at all.5. ... you never got out of the past tense. not once did youmention the future.…you are always thinking of t he past, regretting and lamenting. you did not look forward to what you can do in the future at all.6. my, my, said the old man slyly. if only we had come downten seconds sooner, wed have caught that cab, wouldnt we?the old man said to me trickily, u sing the phrase “if only” on purpose, “if only we’d got here ten seconds earlier, we’d have caught the cab.” i laughed and understood what he meant. so i followed his advice and said, “next time i’ll run faster”.unit 21. moses pleaded a speech defect to rationalize his reluctance to deliver jehovahs edict to pharaoh. moses justified his unwillingness to pass jehovah’s order to pharaoh, saying that he was “slow of speech”.2. yet for all the trouble procrastination may incur, delay can often inspire and revive a creative soul.delay leads to problems. however, in many cases, it can often stimulate the creativity in an artist.3. he notes that speedy action can be embarrassing or extremely costly.he points out that hastiness may give rise to decision which turn out to be humiliating or expensive.4. bureaucratization, which flourished amid the growing burdens of government and the greater complexity of society, was designed to smother policymakers in blankets of legalism, compromise and reappraisal---and thereby prevent hasty decisions from being made.excessive red-tape(官样文章;繁文缛节) developed because public administration was expanding in scope and becausesociety was growing more and more complicated. in this sense, red-tape helped those in charge of policy to be fully engaged in enormous amount of paperwork and judgment, thus making it impossible for an immature decision to result.5. ...many of my friends go through agonies when they facea blank page.…many of my friends have a hard time the moment they attempt to put pen to paper.unit 31. of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is unnerving; but i suspect---i more than suspect, i am convinced---that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of money.brought up in the old tradition, my father is naturally not prepared to accept the idea of modern architecture; his objection to it, i would assume, indeed i should say i am pretty sure, is not a result of his strong dislike of the physical building itself, but rather that of his refusal to change his attitude towards money.2. if a buildings design made it appear impregnable, the institution was necessarily sound, and the meaning of the heavy wall as an architectural symbol dwelt in the prevailing attitude toward money, rather than in any aesthetic theory.if a building was made to look sturdy/invulnerable, it would be accordingly regarded as reliable, and the significance of the thick walls would be measured not by their artistic value, but by their seeming ability to provide a safe location for money.3. in a primitive society, for example, men pictured the world as large, fearsome, hostile, and beyond human control.people in a primitive society, for example, saw the world as an enormous planet full of fear, hatred and disorder.4.the principal function of todays wall is to separate possible undesirable outside air from the controlled conditions of temperature and humidity which we have created inside.today a wall serves mainly as a physical means to protect the desired atmosphere inside from being disturbed by anything unwelcome outside.5. to repeat, it is not our advanced technology, but our changing conceptions of ourselves in relation to the world that determine how we shall build our walls.again, the decisive factor that can influence the design of a wall is not the advancement of science and technology, but our ever-changing attitude towards our place in this world.unit 41. he was a man of exuberant fancy, and, withal, of an authority so irresistible that, at his will, he turned his varied fancies into facts.he was a man rich in whimsies, and intolerant of any act bold enough as to challenge his authority. when his mind caught upon something, absurd as it might be, he would do everything to make sure that it was done in the way he wished.2. when every member of his domestic and political systems moved smoothly in its appointed course, his nature was bland and genial; but whenever there was a little hitch, and some of his orbs got out of their orbits, he was blander and more genial still, for nothing pleased him so much as to make the crooked straight, and crush down uneven places.when all his subjects behaved in such a manner as they were told to, he could be gentle and kind. and he could even be moreso, if anything not conforming to what he expected should occur, because that offered a great chance for him to see the undesirable removed, a thing he was most delighted in doing.3. he could open either door he pleased: he was subject to no guidance or influence but that of the aforementioned impartial and incorruptible chance.he enjoyed total freedom to choose what to do: he was not directed or influenced by anyone as to which door to open. the only thing that was decisive in terms of his fate was the above-mentioned chance, granted to all the accused alike.4. this element of uncertainty lent an interest to the occasion which it could not otherwise have attained.the fact that no one could tell for sure what might happen (to the accused) made this from of trial more attractive than any other form of justice.5. thus the masses were entertained and pleased, and the thinking part of the community could bring no charge of unfairness against this plan; for did not the accused person have the whole matter in his own hands?thus people enjoyed coming here to watch, and those guided by reason in the society could not possibly question the fairness of this form of trial; for was it not the fact that all the accused were given equal chances to make decisions upon their won destiny?unit51. this semi-barbaric king had a daughter as blooming as his most florid fancies, and with a soul as fervent and imperious as his own.this semi-barbaric king had a daughter as exuberant as the wildest of his notions, a daughter who possessed a nature asfierce and tyrannical as his own.2. of course, everybody knew that the deed with which the accused was charged had been done.it was, of course, known to all that he was guilty of the offense of conducting an affair with the princess.3. ...; but the king would not think of allowing any fact of this kind to interfere with the workings of the tribunal, in which he took such great delight and satisfaction.…,even tho ugh the king was well aware that the love affair had taken place, he would still refuse to let the normal method of deciding guilt or innocence be disturbed, because he was extremely enthusiastic about his way of setting matters of this kind.4. ...; but gold, and the power of a womans will, had brought the secret to the princess..…; but because she had the money, and above all, because her determination was so irresistible, the princess was able to get access to the secret.5. he understood her nature, and his soul was assured that she would never rest until she had made plain to herself this thing, hidden to all other lookers-on, even to the king.he knew her so well that he was perfectly positive that she would never cease to search for the secret, which remained unknown to all other spectators, even to the king himself.unit 61. there seems to be a general assumption that brilliant people cannot stand routine; that they need a varied, exciting life in order to do their best.it is generally believed that a colorless life can freeze a creative mind, and that only a colorful life can inspire a man tocreative work.2. the outstanding characteristic of mans creativeness is the ability to transmute trivial impulses into momentous consequences.one of the wonders human creativity works is that man can make full use of even insignificant feelings to produce far-reaching results.3. an eventful life exhausts rather than stimulates.a life full of diversions stops man’s creativity instead of activating it.4. it is usually the mediocre poets, writers, etc.,who go in search of stimulating events to release their creative flow.only literary artists of an average type rely on excitements in life as a source for their creative work./ great poets, writers, etc., create works of art out of trivial and common subject.5. people who find dull job unendurable are often dull people who do not know what to do with themselves when at leisure.people who are unable to see how to be patient with repetitious work are usually those who are unable to see where to find fun in life when it comes to relaxation.【篇三:新编英语教程第3册(李观仪主编)第一单元课后练习答案_】ss=txt>text 1 ( p2 )my first jobcomprehensiona. true (t) or false (f)?1.

boy’s education but the writer did not consider games to have so much importance to the boys.4. the writer was not happy about his having to teach algebra and geometry, but he did not mind having to walk a mile along the dusty road to the park.t5. the young man was satisfied with the salary he would get.fthe young man would only get twelve pounds a weekincluding lunch, which was by no means good pay. of course the writer was not satisfied. however, before he could say anything about the poor pay, the headmaster had stood up and asked the young man to meet his wife.6. the writer did not feel unhappy at the idea of working under the headmaster’s wife.fthe writer thought it was something he could hardly bear. to him, for a young man to work under a woman would be shameful and would result in a loss of dignity and self-respect.b. explain the following in your own words.1. being very short of money and wanting to do something useful, i applied, fearing as i did so, that without a degree and with no experience of teaching my chances of landing the job were slim. because i was in bad need of money and was eager to do something of use, i applied for the job. but at the same time that i did so, i was afraid that the possibility for me to get the job was very small because i didn’t have a university degree, nor did i have any teaching experience.2. ...three days later a letter arrived, summoning me to croydon for an interview.… three days later i received a letter, asking me to go to croydon to have an interview.3. he looked at me with an air of surprised disapproval, as a colonel might look at a private whose bootlaces were undone. he cast a look at me with the same surprise and dislike as a colonel would look at a soldier when his bootlaces came loose.4. the headmaster and i obviously had singularly little in common.apparently the headmaster and i had no similar interests or beliefs.5. the teaching set-up appalled me.the way teaching was organized filled me with terror (or, i was shocked at the teaching arrangements).6. i should have to split the class up into three groups and teach them in turn at three different levels.i should have to divide the class into three groups of three different levels and teach them one after another.7. it was not so much having to tramp a mile along the dusty streets of croydon, followed by a crocodile of small

have to work under a woman in future made me feel totally humiliated.text 2 ( p3 )how to do well on a job interviewcomprehensiontrue (t) or false (f)1. most people think that a job interview is a terrible experience.key: t2. you’re often given a reason if you’re not hired after an interview.key: fif you don’t get the job, you’re rarely given any reason why.3. you should neither wear casual

fast expresses, slow local trains which stop at every station, suburban trains taking businessmen to their offices and home again; i enjoy them all. it must be theelement of romance that attracts me. there is no romance on motorway, which is a box of metal and rubber on a strip of concrete, or in flying through the air in a pressurized tube from one identical plastic and glass airport to another. but trains are different. on a train, you can walk around, look at the scenery, observe your fellow passengers; whereas in a plane all you can see are the clouds and the back of other people’s heads. and then the re are the stations. some, i’m afraid, have become too like airport; others, fortunately, are old and dirty, full of unexpected details and with their own individual peculiarities. traveling by train remains an adventure, as you try to interpret the timetable, persuade the booking office clerk to sell you a ticket and understand the incomprehensible messages coming over the loudspeaker system. then there is that delightful uncertainty as you wonder whether you are on the right train, or the right part of th e train. there’s nothing like it.precis writing ( p7 )i applied for my first job before i entered university because i was short of money. the school where i applied for a job was ten miles away from where i lived and i was not sure if i could get the job.

afternoon of that eventful day, i stood on the porch, dumb, expe ctant, i guessed from my mother’s signs and from the hurrying in the house that something unusual was about to happen, so i went to the

Unit 11. Nothing in life is more exciting and rewarding than the sudden flash of light that leaves you a changed person--not only changed, but changed for the better.The most inspiring and gratifying fact of life is the unexpected spark of enlightenment that makes you different and a better person than before.2. He came across the street, finally, muffled in his ancient overcoat, shapeless felt hat pulled down over his bald head, looking more like an energetic gnome than an eminent psychiatrist.A t last he walked over from the other side of the street, wrapped in his old-fashioned overcoat, his bald head covered by a shapeless felt hat. He looked like a dwarfish old man full of energy rather than a well-known psychiatrist.3. The woman who spoke next had never married because of a sense of obligation to her widowed mother; she recalled bitterly all the marital chances she had let go by.The next speaker on the tape was a woman who had remained single because she thought she was obliged to take care of her mother who was a widow. She still remembered and told others miserably about all the chances of marriage she had missed.4. In the end, if you let it become a habit, it can become a real roadblock, an excuse for not trying any more.Eventually, if you f orm a habit of saying “if only”, the phrase can really turn to an obstruction, providing you with an excuse for giving up trying anything at all.5. ... you never got out of the past tense. Not once did you mention the future.…you are always thinking of the past, regretting and lamenting. You did not look forward to what you can do in the future at all.6. ''My, my,'' said the Old Man slyly. ''If only we had come down ten seconds sooner, we'd have caught that cab, wouldn't we?''The Old Man said to me tr ickily, using the phrase “if only” on purpose, “If only we’d got here ten seconds earlier, we’d have caught the cab.” I laughed and understood what he meant. So I followed his advice and said, “Next time I’ll run faster”.Unit 21. Moses pleaded a speech defect to rationalize his reluctance to deliver Jehovah's edict to Pharaoh. Moses justified his unwillingness to pass Jehovah’s order to Pharaoh, saying that he was “slow of speech”.2. Yet for all the trouble procrastination may incur, delay can often inspire and revive a creative soul.Delay leads to problems. However, in many cases, it can often stimulate the creativity in an artist.3. He notes that speedy action can be embarrassing or extremely costly.He points out that hastiness may give rise to decision which turn out to be humiliating or expensive.4. Bureaucratization, which flourished amid the growing burdens of government and the greater complexity of society, was designed to smother policymakers in blankets of legalism, compromise and reappraisal---and thereby prevent hasty decisions from being made.Excessive red-tape(官样文章;繁文缛节) developed because public administration was expanding in scope and because society was growing more and more complicated. In this sense, red-tape helped those in charge of policy to be fully engaged in enormous amount of paperwork and judgment, thus making it impossible for an immature decision to result.5. ...many of my friends go through agonies when they face a blank page.…many of my friends have a hard time the moment they attempt to put pen to paper.Unit 31. Of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is unnerving; but I suspect---I more than suspect, I am convinced---that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of money.Brought up in the old tradition, my father is naturally not prepared to accept the idea of modern architecture; his objection to it, I would assume, indeed I should say I am pretty sure, is not a result of his strong dislike of the physical building itself, but rather that of his refusal to change his attitude towards money.2.

In a primitive society, for example, men pictured the world as large, fearsome, hostile, and beyond human control.P eople in a primitive society, for example, saw the world as an enormous planet full of fear, hatred and disorder.4.The principal function of today's wall is to separate possible undesirable outside air from the controlled conditions of temperature and humidity which we have created inside.Today a wall serves mainly as a physical means to protect the desired atmosphere inside from being disturbed by anything unwelcome outside.5. To repeat, it is not our advanced technology, but our changing conceptions of ourselves in relation to the world that determine how we shall build our walls.Again, the decisive factor that can influence the design of a wall is not the advancement of science and technology, but our ever-changing attitude towards our place in this world.Unit 41. He was a man of exuberant fancy, and, withal, of an authority so irresistible that, at his will, he turned his varied fancies into facts.He was a man rich in whimsies, and intolerant of any act bold enough as to challenge his authority. When his mind caught upon something, absurd as it might be, he would do everything to make sure that it was done in the way he wished.2.

There seems to be a general assumption that brilliant people cannot stand routine; that they needa varied, exciting life in order to do their best.It is generally believed that a colorless life can freeze a creative mind, and that only a colorful life can inspire a man to creative work.2. The outstanding characteristic of man's creativeness is the ability to transmute trivial impulses into momentous consequences.One of the wonders human creativity works is that man can make full use of even insignificant feelings to produce far-reaching results.3.

To him, the session was just like “a flash of insight that leaves him a changed person—not only changed, but changed for the better.”3. The three speakers on the tape were all unhappy, and the two words they all used frequently in what they said were “if only.” What the old man wanted to point out to the author was that to keep saying “if only” would not change anything; on the contrary, it only kept the person facing the wring way—backward instead of forward. Thus it did more harm than good to the person who kept saying them. (See para. 15)4. Shift the focus; substitute “next time” for “if only”5. They point to entirely different mental directions; one is backward and negative, and the other forward and positive.6. It is instructive and inspirational.II. 1. The most inspiring and gratifying fact of life is the unexpected spark of enlightenment that makes you different and a better person than before.2. At last he walked over from the other side of the street, wrapped in his old-fashioned overcoat, his bald head covered by a shapeless felt hat. He looked like a dwarfish old man full of energy rather than a well-known psychiatrist.3. The next speaker on the tape was a woman who had remained single because she thought she was obliged to take care of her mother who was a widow. She still remembered and told others miserably about all the chances of marriage she had missed.4. Eventually, if you form a habit of sayi ng “if only”, the phrase can really turn to an obstruction, providing you with an excuse for giving up trying anything at all.5. …you are always thinking of the past, regretting and lamenting. You did not look forward to what you can do in the future at all.6. The Old Man said to me trickily, using the phrase “if only” on purpose, “If only we’d got here ten seconds earlier, we’d have caught the cab.” I laughed and understood what he meant. So I followed his advice and said, “Next time I’ll run faster”.III. 1. The whole plan fell through for want of fund.2. Newton is acknowledged as one of the world’s most eminent scientists.3.

Paraphrase the parts underlined in the following:“Never put off till tomorrow,” 1exhorted Lord Chesterfield in 1749, “what you can do today.”’ That the elegant earl never 2got around to marrying his so n’s mother and had a bad habit of keeping 3worthies like Dr. Johnson cooling their heels for hours in an anteroom 4attests to the fact that even the most well-intentioned men have been postponers ever. Quintus Fabius Maximus, one of the great Roman generals, was 5dubbed “Cunctator” (Delayer) for putting off battle 6until the last possible vinum break. Moses 7pleaded a speech defect to rationalize his reluctance to deliver Jehovah’s edict to Pharaoh. Hamlet, of course, raised procrastination to an art form.There are those who prepare their income taxes in February, prepay mortgages and serve precisely planned dinners at an 8ungodly 6: 30 p.m. The other half dine happily on leftovers at 9 or 10, misplace bills and 9file for an extension of the income tax deadline. They seldom pay credit-card bills until the 10apocalyptic voice of Diners threatens doom from Denver. They postpone, 11as Faustian encounters) visits to barbershop, dentist or doctor.Yet 12for all the trouble procrastination may incur, delay can often inspire and revive a creative soul.From Cunctator’ s day until this century, the art of postponement had been 13virtually a monopoly of the military (“Hurry up and wait”), diplomacy and the law. In former times, a British proconsul faced with a native uprising could comfortably 14ruminate about the situation with Singapore Sling” in hand. 15Blessedly, he had no flattering Telex to order in machine guns and fresh troops.Even 16where there is no will, there is a way. There is a difference, of course, between chronic procrastination and purposeful postponement, particularly 17in the higher echelons of business.The data explosion 18fortifies those seeking excuses for inaction —another report to be read, another authority to be consulted.His point is well 19taken. 20Bureaucratization, which flourished amid the growing burdens of government and the greater complexity of society, was designed to smother policymakers in blankets of legalism, compromise andreappraisal --- and thereby prevent hasty decisions from being made.Many languages are 21studded with phrases that refer to putting things off ---from the Spanish maiana to the Arabic bukrafil mishmish.There are all sorts of 22rationalizations: the pressure of teaching responsibilities at home, checking out the latest book, looking up another footnote.”To Georgia State Psychologist Joen Fagan, however; procrastination may be a kind of 23subliminal way of sorting the important from the trivial.It is something of 24a truism that to put off making a decision is itself a decision. The parliamentary process is essentially a system of delay and deliberation. So, 25for that matter, is the creation of a great painting, or 26an entree, or a book, or a building like Blenheim Palace, which took the Duke of Marlboro ugh’s architects and laborers 15 years to construct. In the process, the design can 27mellow and marinate.In other words, 28pace Lord Chesterfield, what you don’t necessarily have to do today, by all means put off until tomorrow.I.

新编英语教程6第三版练习册答案【篇一:新编英语教程第六册练习册paraphrase答案】nothing in life is more exciting and rewarding than the sudden flash of light that leaves you a changed person--not only changed, but changed for the better.the most inspiring and gratifying fact of life is the unexpected spark of enlightenment that makes you different and a better person than before.2. he came across the street, finally, muffled in his ancient overcoat, shapeless felt hat pulled down over his bald head, looking more like an energetic gnome than an eminent psychiatrist.at last he walked over from the other side of the street,wrapped in his old-fashioned overcoat, his bald head coveredby a shapeless felt hat. he looked like a dwarfish old man fullof energy rather than a well-known psychiatrist.3. the woman who spoke next had never married because of a sense of obligation to her widowed mother; she recalledbitterly all the marital chances she had let go by.the next speaker on the tape was a woman who had remained single because she thought she was obliged to take care of her mother who was a widow. she still remembered and told others miserably about all the chances of marriage she had missed.4. in the end, if you let it become a habit, it can become a real roadblock, an excuse for not trying any more.eventually, if you form a habit of saying “if only”, the phrasecan really turn to an obstruction, providing you with an excuse for giving up trying anything at all.5. ... you never got out of the past tense. not once did you mention the future.…you are always thinking of the past, regretting and lamenting. you did not look forward to what you can do in the future at all.6. my, my, said the old man slyly. if only we had come downten seconds sooner, wed have caught that cab, wouldnt we?the old man said to me trickily, using the phrase “if only” on purpose, “if only we’d got here ten seconds earlier, we’d havecaught the cab.” i laughed and understood what he meant. so i foll owed his advice and said, “next time i’ll run faster”.unit 21. moses pleaded a speech defect to rationalize his reluctance to deliver jehovahs edict to pharaoh. moses justified his unwillingness to pass jehovah’s order to pharaoh, saying that he was “slow of speech”.2. yet for all the trouble procrastination may incur, delay can often inspire and revive a creative soul.delay leads to problems. however, in many cases, it can often stimulate the creativity in an artist.3. he notes that speedy action can be embarrassing or extremely costly.he points out that hastiness may give rise to decision which turn out to be humiliating or expensive.4. bureaucratization, which flourished amid the growing burdens of government and the greater complexity of society, was designed to smother policymakers in blankets of legalism, compromise and reappraisal---and thereby prevent hasty decisions from being made.excessive red-tape(官样文章;繁文缛节) developed because public administration was expanding in scope and because society was growing more and more complicated. in this sense, red-tape helped those in charge of policy to be fully engaged in enormous amount of paperwork and judgment, thus making it impossible for an immature decision to result.5. ...many of my friends go through agonies when they face a blank page.…many of my friends have a hard time the moment they attempt to put pen to paper.unit 31. of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is unnerving; but i suspect---i more than suspect, i am convinced---that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of money.brought up in the old tradition, my father is naturally not prepared to accept the idea of modern architecture; his objection to it, i would assume, indeed i should say i am prettysure, is not a result of his strong dislike of the physical building itself, but rather that of his refusal to change his attitude towards money.2. if a buildings design made it appear impregnable, the institution was necessarily sound, and the meaning of the heavy wall as an architectural symbol dwelt in the prevailing attitude toward money, rather than in any aesthetic theory.if a building was made to look sturdy/invulnerable, it would be accordingly regarded as reliable, and the significance of the thick walls would be measured not by their artistic value, but by their seeming ability to provide a safe location for money.3. in a primitive society, for example, men pictured the world as large, fearsome, hostile, and beyond human control.people in a primitive society, for example, saw the world as an enormous planet full of fear, hatred and disorder.4.the principal function of todays wall is to separate possible undesirable outside air from the controlled conditions of temperature and humidity which we have created inside.today a wall serves mainly as a physical means to protect the desired atmosphere inside from being disturbed by anything unwelcome outside.5. to repeat, it is not our advanced technology, but our changing conceptions of ourselves in relation to the world that determine how we shall build our walls.again, the decisive factor that can influence the design of a wall is not the advancement of science and technology, but our ever-changing attitude towards our place in this world.unit 41. he was a man of exuberant fancy, and, withal, of an authority so irresistible that, at his will, he turned his varied fancies into facts.he was a man rich in whimsies, and intolerant of any act bold enough as to challenge his authority. when his mind caught upon something, absurd as it might be, he would do everything to make sure that it was done in the way he wished.2. when every member of his domestic and political systems moved smoothly in its appointed course, his nature was bland and genial; but whenever there was a little hitch, and some of his orbs got out of their orbits, he was blander and more genialstill, for nothing pleased him so much as to make the crooked straight, and crush down uneven places.when all his subjects behaved in such a manner as they were told to, he could be gentle and kind. and he could even be more so, if anything not conforming to what he expected should occur, because that offered a great chance for him to see the undesirable removed, a thing he was most delighted in doing.3. he could open either door he pleased: he was subject to no guidance or influence but that of the aforementioned impartial and incorruptible chance.he enjoyed total freedom to choose what to do: he was not directed or influenced by anyone as to which door to open. the only thing that was decisive in terms of his fate was the above-mentioned chance, granted to all the accused alike.4. this element of uncertainty lent an interest to the occasion which it could not otherwise have attained.the fact that no one could tell for sure what might happen (to the accused) made this from of trial more attractive than any other form of justice.5. thus the masses were entertained and pleased, and the thinking part of the community could bring no charge of unfairness against this plan; for did not the accused person have the whole matter in his own hands?thus people enjoyed coming here to watch, and those guided by reason in the society could not possibly question the fairness of this form of trial; for was it not the fact that all the accused were given equal chances to make decisions upon their won destiny?unit51. this semi-barbaric king had a daughter as blooming as his most florid fancies, and with a soul as fervent and imperious as his own.this semi-barbaric king had a daughter as exuberant as the wildest of his notions, a daughter who possessed a nature as fierce and tyrannical as his own.2. of course, everybody knew that the deed with which the accused was charged had been done.it was, of course, known to all that he was guilty of the offense of conducting an affair with the princess.3. ...; but the king would not think of allowing any fact of this kind to interfere with the workings of the tribunal, in which he took such great delight and satisfaction.…,even though the king was well aware that the love affair had taken place, he would still refuse to let the normal method of deciding guilt or innocence be disturbed, because he was extremely enthusiastic about his way of setting matters of this kind.4. ...; but gold, and the power of a womans will, had brought the secret to the princess..…; but because she had the money, and above all, because her determination was so irresistible, the princess was able to get access to the secret.5. he understood her nature, and his soul was assured that she would never rest until she had made plain to herself this thing, hidden to all other lookers-on, even to the king.he knew her so well that he was perfectly positive that she would never cease to search for the secret, which remained unknown to all other spectators, even to the king himself.unit 61. there seems to be a general assumption that brilliant people cannot stand routine; that they need a varied, exciting life in order to do their best.it is generally believed that a colorless life can freeze a creative mind, and that only a colorful life can inspire a man to creative work.2. the outstanding characteristic of mans creativeness is the ability to transmute trivial impulses into momentous consequences.one of the wonders human creativity works is that man can make full use of even insignificant feelings to produce far-reaching results.3. an eventful life exhausts rather than stimulates.a life full of diversions stops man’s creativity instead of activating it.4. it is usually the mediocre poets, writers, etc.,who go in search of stimulating events to release their creative flow.only literary artists of an average type rely on excitements in life as a source for their creative work./ great poets, writers, etc., create works of art out of trivial and common subject.5. people who find dull job unendurable are often dull people who do not know what to do with themselves when at leisure. people who are unable to see how to be patient with repetitious work are usually those who are unable to see where to find fun in life when it comes to relaxation.【篇二:新编英语教程6 练习与答案】txt>practice testsforadvanced english(2)主编张华鸿第五、六册本书的主要特点:1.2.前言编写本书的目的:目前英语专业三年级所使用的由上海外国语大学李观仪教授主编的〈新编英语教程〉紧扣精读课文编写练习,实用性、针对性强。

大学高级英语第六册课文Paraphrase

Lesson 1 Sexism in Schoolcation is not a spectator sport. (p3)Education is something that all students should participate in.2.When students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudestoward school, and that positive attitudes enhance learning. (p3)When students participate in classroom discussion they are more inclined to think that going to school is useful, and the positive attitudes facilitate learning.3.It is no coincidence that girls are more passive in the classroom and score lower than boyson SATs. (p3)It is not surprising that the two things, namely, girls being more passive in the classroom and scoring lower than boys should be causally related.4.Most teachers claim that girls participate and are called on in class as often as boys. (p4)Most teachers state that girls participate and are asked to speak in class as often as boy.5.But a three-year study we recently completed found that this is not true; vocally, boys clearlydominate the classroom. (p4)Based on a three-year study, we found that this is not true; in terms of oral participation, boys clearly speak much more in classroom.6.When we showed teachers and administrators film of a classroom discussion and asked whowas talking more, the teachers overwhelmingly said the girls were. (p4)When we showed teachers and people responsible for the running of a school a video of a classroom discussion and asked who was talking more, the teachers almost all said the girls were.7.But in reality, the boys in the film were out-talking the girls at a ratio of three to one. (p4)But in reality, the boys in the video were talking more than the girls at a speed of three to one.8.Half of the classroom covered language arts and English-subjects in which girls traditionallyhave excelled; the other half covered math and science --- traditionally made domains. (p5) Half of the classroom covered the skills in using the language for effective communication and literary appreciation. And girls usually do better in these subjects. The other half covered math and science which traditionally belong to male field.9.Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls dominate classroomdiscussion in reading, while boys are dominant in math. (p7)Our research denied the truth of the traditional supposition that girls control classroom discussion in reading, while boys control the discussion in math.10.We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science, boysgot more than their fair share of teacher attention. (p7)We found that whether the subject was skills in using the language for effective communication and English or math and science, boys got more teacher attention than is supposed to be fair.11.Some critics claim that if teachers talk more to male students, it is simply because boys aremore assertive in grabbing their attention --- a classic case of the squeaky wheel getting the educational oil. (p8)Some critics state firmly that if teachers talk more to male students, it is simply because boys are more aggressive in catching their attention --- a typical example of the notice ---arresting students getting more attention from the teacher.12.However, male assertiveness is not the whole answer. (p8)However, male’s mere assertive cannot completely answer the question.13.Girls are often shortchanged in quality as well as in quantity of teacher attention. (p10)Girls are often not given enough teacher attention what they deserve in quality as well as in quantity.14.Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself;classroom chivalry is not only misplaced, it is detrimental. (p13)Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself; “let me do for you” behavior is not only improper, it is harmful.15.During classroom discussion, teachers in our study reacted to boys’ answers with dynamic,precise and effective responses, while they often gave girls bland and diffuse reactions. (p13) During classroom discussion, teachers in our study reacted to boys’ answers with energetic, accurate and effective responses, while they often gave girls indifferent and general reactions.16.Despite caricatures of school as a harsh and punitive place, fewer than 5 percent of theteachers’ reactions were criticism, even of the mildest sort. (p15)Although school is often mockingly described as a place where students are badly treated and often punished.17.Too often, girls remain in the dark about the quality of their answers. (p18)Too often, girls are kept completely uninformed about the quality of their answers.18.Unfortunately, acceptance, the imprecise response packing the least educational punch,gets the most equitable sex distribution in classroom. (p18)It is unfortunate that the least useful kind of feedback is distributed between boys and girls most impartially, while the more useful kinds of feedback are heavily biased towards boys.Thus the overall result is that the feedback boys receive much more beneficial than that for girls.19.Active students receiving precise feedback are more likely to achieve academically. Andthey are more likely to be boys. (p18)Any active student who receives precise feedback can achieve more in his or her studies.And boys are more likely to be active and to receive such feedback, and so are more likely to succeed.20.By high school, some girls become less committed to careers, although their grades andachievement-test scores may be as good as boys’. (p20)By high school, some girls are not so devoted to the subject they have been studying, despite their academic study as good as boys’.21.Many girls’ interests turn to marriage or stereotypically female jobs. (p20)Many girls’ interests turn to marriage or jobs which are conventionally believed to be taken up by women only.22.The sexist communication game is played at work, as well as at school. (p23)The conversation among people which exhibits elements of sexism not exists in the field of work but also at school.23.Classes taught by these trained teachers had a higher level of intellectual discussi on andcontained more effective and precise teacher responses for all students. (p28)Classes taught by these trained teachers had a higher level of the discussion which is full of intelligence and contained more effective and accurate teacher responses for all students.Lesson 2 Philosophers among the Carrots1.I asked myself if it was still permissible to take pleasure in the profession of housewife andnot be a traitor to the cause. (p1)I was wondering whether it is possible for me to get pleasure by working as a housewifewhile at the same time still devoted to the Women’s Lib.2.I recalled Socrates saying that, “The unexamined life is not worth living,” and decided thatmaybe it was time to examine mine. (p1)I remembered Socrates’saying that, “The life of few profound consideration and carefulchoice is not a meaningful one”, and decided that maybe it was time to look at my life very carefully to see if any lessons could be drawn from it or any changes needed to be made in it.3.If I hadn’t been to college, I wouldn’t have been that significant analogy, I thought smugly,depositing an orange pit in the sink as I finished the salad (or did I learn that in high school?).(p2)I feel proud of knowledge I have acquired from college which descend in scale. I splitted anorange pit into the kitchen sink after I had finished eating the salad. (If I didn’t learn that in high school, which part of the compulsory education was, I should not feel so indebted to Women’s Lib.)4.Then, as I eyed a bowl of cooked carrots speculatively, sizing them up for carrot cake ofmarinated vegetable salad and opting for the cake which I knew would be seconded by my husband and sons, (p3)Then, as I watched a bowl of cooked carrots thoughtfully, estimating whether they would be better for making salad, and deciding on the cake which I knew would be supported by my husband and three sons,5.I followed the train of my thoughts which was chugging off into philosophical realms led byArchimedes who said, “Any object placed in a fluid displaces its weight; an immersed object displaces its volume,” (p3)My thoughts, led by Archimedes, wandered away into the kingdom of philosophy. He said, “W hen an object floats on the liquid we can know its weight, which is equal to the weight of the liquid it has displaced; when an object immersed in the liquid we can know its volume which is equal to the volume of the liquid it has displaced.”6.Muttering, along with Emerson, that “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds…”I dumped in a couple of spoonfuls of applesauce to make it come out right. (p3)Saying in a low voice, quoting from Emerson that “To observe a rule rigidly is an abominable quality of unintelligent people” I poured a couple of spoonfuls of applesauce to taste better.7.Buddha has his Bo tree, I have my refrigerator. (p4)Just as Buddha received heavenly inspiration to found Buddhism under the Bo tree, so I get new understanding about housewives and philosophy by gazing into the depth of the refrigerator.8.You can’t step twice in the same river. (p4)Please rest assured that what you are washing today is different from what you washedyesterday.9.I saw about me the variety in unity and unity in variety spoken of by my aestheticsprofessor. (p4)I saw the principle spoken by my aesthetics professor which means to see uniformity indifferences and see differences in uniformity. Applied to my case, “unity”means that all the clothes I had to wash were dirty clothes and “variety”means that every piece to be washed was different from every other piece.10.I indulged in aggressive fantasies against my dear family as I picked up a necktie draped ona lamp, a pair of tennis shoes under the couch, a cache of peanut shells beneath anewspaper and remembering William James’ comment that “Even a pig has a philosophy,”I wondered angrily what theirs was. (p5)I allowed myself to develop a lot of hostile and angry thoughts against my dear husbandand three sons when I picked up a tie draped on a lamp, a pair of tennis shoes under the couch, a secret store of peanut shells beneath a newspaper and remembering William James’ comment that “Even a pig has an attitude to life.” So I wondered since they were like pigs, they must have had one too. (Anyone may find an excuse for their behavior.) 11.……with a wave of willfulness (p6)……with a sudden burst of determination to go my own way12.In my present state of mind I found this the quintessence of good sense and I walked out ofhouse and into the car, leaving the breakfast dishes on the table. (p6)In my present mood, I found this the best representation of human wisdom.13.I smiled enigmatically as I continued to stir the chicken soup and quoted Alexander Pope,“All chaos is but order misunderstood,” then added with composure that I had purchase a new dress. (p7)I smiled in a way which showed there was something secret about her when I continued tostir the chicken soup and quoted Alexander Pope, “All chaos is in fact not chaos, but is order which has been mistaken for chaos.”14.But, without becoming the least bit ruffled, I replied, in the words of Pascal, “Ah, but theheart has its reasons the mind knows not of.” (p8)……sometimes you do something out of emotion which is not based on any reason.15.Whatever is, is good. (p9)Reality is good. It is good, because everything is created by God.Lesson 3 The Power of Habit1.Habit is a second nature! Habit is ten times nature. (p1)Habit is a second born quality. It is so deeply fixed that you simply follow your habit without thinking.2.…… the degree to which this is true no one probably can appreciate as well as one who is aveteran soldier himself. (p1)Only the experienced soldier can best recognize the truth of the duke’s statement.3.The daily drill and the years of discipline end by fashioning a man completely over again, asto most of the possibilities of his conduct. (p1)It takes many years of daily training of mind and qualities to create a completely new person, as far as his possible patterns of behavior are connected.4. a practical joke (p2)sb. who plays a trick on sb. else so as to make the victim foolish5.The drill had been thorough, and its effects had become embodied in the man’s nervousstructure. (p2)The training had completed in any way, and it s effects had become a part of man’s nervous system.6.Rider less cavalry-horses, at many a battle, have been seen to come together and go throughtheir customary evolutions at the sound of the bugle-call. (p3)Without a rider, soldier who fight on horseback at many battles, have been to gather together and take part in their habitual drills as soon as they heard sound of trumpet.7.Most domestic beasts seem machines almost pure and simple, undoubting, unhesitatinglydoing from minute to minute the duties they have been taught, and giving no sign that possibility of an alternative ever suggests itself to their mind. (p3)Most beasts raised at home are completely like machines, and no doubt, never hesitate to do the duties they have been taught all the time and give no indication that they have never come up with other options.8.…… by his new responsibilities, (p4)…… things he had to face or manage in the new environment,9.Habit is thus the enormous fly-wheel of society, its most precious conservative agent. (p4)Habit is a regulating force that maintains established order of society and prev ents any sudden change in it.10.It alone is what keeps up all with the bounds of ordinance. (p4)It keeps us all in the different professional, geographical, or social positions designated to us by law or fate.11.It alone prevents the hardest and most repulsive walks of life from being deserted by thosebrought up to tread therein. (p4)Because of habit, those who have been trained to work in that place since their childhood will not give up those most difficult and unpleasant occupation.12.It protects us from invasion by the natives of the desert and the frozen zone. (p4)It makes the natives of the desert and the frozen zone stay in their own place because of habit.13.It dooms us all to fight out the battle of life upon the lines of our nature or our early choice,and to make the best of a pursuit that disagrees, because there is no other for which we are fitted, and it is too late to begin again. (p4)Habit determines that one will stay and work hard till the end of life in a disagreeable occupation which he was brought to follow or chose early in our life, and try to accept and manage it as well as he can. Because there is no other choice for which we are suitable, and it is too late to begin again.14.Although at the age of twenty-five you see the professional mannerism settling down onthe young commercial traveler. (p4)By age 25, your future career has been settled down and you have formed peculiar habits in work.15.You see the little lines of cleavage running through the character, the tricks of thought, theprejudices, the ways of the “shop”, in a word, from which the man can by-and-by no moreescape than his coat sleeve can suddenly fall into a new set of folds. (p4)You get the general idea of the traits of one’s personality, the particular way of thinking, the personal preference, the ways in which one does one’s business, they are all fixed habits. Therefore, the man cannot escape his old habits he has acquired just as his coat sleeve cannot suddenly fall into a new set of folds which has been ironed into it.16.It is best he should not escape. (p4)It is most desirable he should not eacape.17.Hardly ever is a language learned after twenty spoken without a foreign accent;If one learns a language after the age of twenty, he will almost never sound like a native speaker, but only like a foreigner;18.Hardly, ever can a youth transformed to the society of his betters unclean and nasality andother vices of speech bred in him by the associations of his growing years. (p5)Any young man who has been promoted to a higher social position may learn to give up his nasal accents and other bad habits that have been brought up in him by his early education.19.An invisible law, as strong as gravitation, keeps him within his orbit, arranged this year ashe was the last; and how his better-clad acquaintances continue to get the things they wear will be for him a mystery till his dying day. (p5)A person’s old habits, as powerful as gravity, make him to take control over his behaviors…20.It is to fund and capitalize our acquisitions, and live at ease upon the interest of the found.(p6)The calculation of good habits formed is just like the investment of money in a project, if you can form a good habit in your early years, you can benefit a lot from them and enjoy the comfortable life in the future.21.The more of the details of our daily life we can hand over to the effortless custody ofautomatism, the more our higher powers of mind will be set free for their own proper work. (p6)Most of the trivial items in our life can become a habit and can be taken of our conscious mind which therefore can be used for more important task.22.Full half the time of such a man goes to deciding, or regretting, of matters which ought tobe so ingrained in him as practically not to exist for his consciousness at all. (p6)Such man spends not less than half of his time deciding or regretting which should be deeply fixed and really should not all matters for his conscious thinking at all.Lesson 4 The Invisible Japanese Gentlemen1.They spoke to each other rarely in their incomprehensible tongue. (p1)They hardly ever spoke during the meal, and when they did speak, they spoke in a way that the author cannot understand what they are talking about.2.Sometimes the pretty girl who sat in the window beyond gave them a passing glance, buther own problem seemed too serious for her to pay real attention to any in the world except herself and her companion. (p1)Sometimes the pretty girl who sat near window over there gave them a casual glance, but she was so much troubled by her own problem that she couldn’t pay any attentions to others but to herself and her fiancé.3.…… petite in a Regency way, oval like a miniature, though she had a harsh way of speaking--- perhaps the accent of the school, Roedean or Cheltenham Ladies’ College, which she not long ago left. (p2)……her face was small, delicate, and clean, and was as oval-shaped as a miniature, representing the typical feminine face admired as perfect by Regency time, though she spoke in a firm, commanding tone and an upper-class manner, typical of those who had been educated at a highly prestigious school for upper-class young women, which she graduated not long ago.4.Her companion appeared a little distraught. (p4)Her partner seemed somewhat worried or upset about what to do next.5.I could see them as two miniatures hanging side by side on white wood panels. (p5)I could see them to be two small portraits hanging side by side as decorations for thesurface of a wall.6.He should have been a young officer in Nelson’s navy in the days when a certain weaknessand sensitivity were no bar to promotion. (p5)He should have had an easy access to promotion in Nelson’s navy despite some weakness and sensitivities as he had some feminine features which would be admired by people then.7.She deserved a better life. (p6)She could have enjoyed an easier life than toiling as a novelist.8.You know you don’t get on with him. This way we shall be quite independent. (p8)You know you don’t have a good relationship with your uncle. If we do as I have said we shall be quite independent.9.My mother says that writing is a good crutch… (p13)She disapproves of writing as the main thing (a career), but though writing is good only as an auxiliary support.10.a pretty solid crutch (p14)If you should think writing is support, I would argue that it is a pretty solid support. It can be the main source of a living.11.I see what you mean. (p26)I understand what you are trying to say.12.I was on the side of his mother. It was a humiliating thought, but I was probably about hermother’s age. (p26)I agreed with his mother that writing should not be a career, but only a support. Althoughknowing oneself to be old would cause discomfort and embarrassment, I was actually about her mother’s age and therefore quite in a position to advise her and her future. 13.……“the long defeat of doing nothing well” (p27)……“the frustration of being unable to write anything good for many years”14.……, by performance and not by promise. (p27)……, by what you have actually written, not by any indication of potential success in you. 15.I didn’t know you’d ever been there. (p29)The polite way of saying “I know you have never been there (so how can you write about a place you don’t know?)16.A fresh eye’s terribly important. (p30)It’s all good to see something new.17.Perhaps, we’d go better to marry when you come back. (p37)It will be more sensible of us to get married when you come back.18.……couldn’t you observe a bit more near home? Here in London. (p47)…… why go off to St. Tropez? Couldn’t you write something about here, about London?19.Darling, you’re awfully decorative, but sometimes --- well, you simply don’t connect. (p51)You look awfully good. (If we go out together, I can feel proud of being accompanied by such a handsome young man.) But you haven’t got intelligence, you absolutely don’t connect one meaning to author.20.…… bowed to each other, as though they were blocked in doorway. (p54)…… yielded apologetically to each other in such a manner as if they have dumped into each other in a doorway, as one was going out and the other coming in21.I had thought the two young people matching miniatures, but what a contrast in fact therewas. The same type of prettiness could contain weakness and strengthens. (p55)I had wrongly believed that the two young people were a good match for their looks. Butnow I saw they were so different in nature. The same pretty looks could mean a weak character in some people, but a strong character in others.22.Her Regency counterpart, I suppose, would have borne a dozen children without the aid ofanesthetics, while he would have fallen an easy victim to the first dark eyes in Naples.(p55)If she had lived in Regency time, she would have been able to give birth to a dozen children without the use of anesthetics. However, if he had been a young officer in Nelson’s navy and had called at the port of Naples, he would easily have been secured by the first Italian woman he met after setting foot ashore.23.I didn’t like to think of her as the Mrs. Humphrey Ward of her generation --- not that Iwould live so long. (p55)I dreaded the thought of her becoming a well-established writer. This was not because Iwould live so long as to see her become another Mrs. Humphrey Ward, the Mrs. Humphrey Ward of her time. But this was because I was deeply aware that the further she went alonga writer’s road, the more severely she was sure to suffer.24.Old ages saves us from the realization of a great many fears. (p55)Being old enable we to avoid seeing many unpleasant things happen. Because we are old, we will not live to see a great many things we fear actually happen.25.……, and she didn’t look like Mrs. Humphrey Ward. (p55)……, Mrs. Humphrey Ward looked plain, while she looked pretty, and her photo on the back of the jacket would help make the book well received by reviewers as well as readers. 26.Sometimes you are so evasive I think you don’t want to marry me at all. (p57)evasive: deliberately avoiding the major topic of getting married。

Unit11. Nothing in life is more exciting and rewarding than the sudden flash of light that leaves you a changed person --- not only changed, but changed for the better:The most inspiring fact of life is the unexpected spark of enlightenment that makes you different and a better person than before.2. He came across the street, finally, muffled in his ancient overcoat, shapeless felt hat pulled down over his bald head, looking more like an energetic gnome than an eminent psychiatrist.At last he came from the other side of the street, wrapped himself in his old-fashioned overcoat, his bald head covered by a shapeless felt hat. He looked like a short old man full of energy rather than a well-known psychiatrist3.The woman who spoke next had never married because of a sense of obligation to her widowed mother; she recalled bitterly all the marital chances she had let go by.The next speaker on the tape was a woman who had remained single because she thought she was obliged to take care of her mother who was a widow. She still remembered and told others miserably about all the chances of marriage she had missed.4.In the end, if you let it become a habit, it can become a real roadblock, an excuse for not trying any more.Eventually, if yo u form a habit of saying “if only”, the phrase can really turn to an obstacle, providing you with an excuse for giving up trying anything at all.5.… you never got out of the past tense. Not once did you mention the future.… you are always thinking of the past, regretting and lamenting. You did not look forward to what you can do in the future at all.6.“My, my,” said the Old Man slyly. “If only we had come down ten seconds sooner, we’d have caught that cab, wouldn’t we”I laughed and picked up the cu e. “Next time I’ll run faster.”The Old Man said to me trickily, using the phrase “if only” on purpose, “If only we’d got here ten seconds earlier, we’d have caught the cab.”I laughed and understood what he meant. So I followed his advice and said, “Next time I’ll run faster.”Unit21、 Moses pleaded a speech defect to rationalize his reluctance to deliver Jehovah’s edict to Pharaoh.Moses used his speech defect as an excuse to make it reasonable that he was unwilling to tell God’s command to P haraoh.2、 Yet for all the trouble procrastination may incur, delay can often inspire and revive a creative soul.Delay leads to problems. However, in many cases, it can often stimulate the creativity in an artist.3、He notes that speedy action can be embarrassing or extremely costly. He points out that hastiness may give rise to decisions which turn out to be humiliating or expensive.4、Bureaucratization, which flourished amid the growing burdens of government and the greater complexity of society, was designed to smother policymakers in blankets of legalism, compromise and reappraisal ---- and thereby prevent hasty decisions from being made.Excessive red-tape developed because public administration was expanding in scope and because society was growing more and more complicated. In this sense, red-tape helped those in charge of policy to be fully engaged in an enormous amount of paperwork and judgment, thus making it impossible for an immature decision to make.5.…many of my friends go through agonies when they face a blank page. …many of my friends have a hard time the moment they attempt to put pen to paper.Unit3.1.Of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is unnerving; but I suspect ---- I more than suspect, I am convinced ---- that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of moneyBrought in the old tradition, my father is naturally not to accept the idea of modern architecture; his objection to it, I would assume, indeed I am sure that is not a result of his strong dislike of the physical form of the building, but his refusal to change his attitude towards money.2.If a building’s design made it appear impregnable, the institution was necessarily sound, and the meaning of the heavy wall as an architectural symbol dwelt in the prevailing attitude toward money, rather than in any aesthetic theory.If a building was made to look invulnerable, it would be regarded as reliable, and the significance of the thick walls would be measured not by their artistic value, but by their attitude towards money3.In a primitive society, for example, men pictured the world as large, fearsome, hostile, and beyond human control.People in a primitive society, for example, saw the world as an enormous planet full of fear, hatred and disorder.4.The principal function of today’s wall is to separate possible undesirable outside air from the controlled conditions of temperature and humidity which we have created inside.Today a wall serves mainly as a physical means to protect the desired atmosphere inside from being disturbed by anything unwelcome outside.5.To repeat, it is not our advanced technology, but our changing conceptionsof ourselves in relation to the world that determine how we shall build ourwalls.Again, the decisive factor that can influence the design of a wall isnot the advancement of science and technology, but our ever-changing attitudetowards our place in this worldUnit41.He was a man of exuberant fancy, and, withal, of an authority soirresistible that, at his will, he turned his varied fancies into facts.He was a man rich in the fancies, and intolerant of any act bold enoughas to challenge his authority. When his mind caught upon something, he woulddo everything to make sure that it was done in the way he wished.2.When every member of his domestic and political systems moved smoothlyin its appointed course, his nature was bland and genial; but whenever therewas a little hitch, and some of his orbs got out of their orbits, he was blanderand more genial still, for nothing pleased him so much as to make the crookedstraight, and crush down uneven places.When all his subjects behaved in such a manner as they were told to, hecould be gentle and kind. And he could even be more so, if anything notconforming to what he expected should occur, because that offered a greatchance for him to see the undesired removed, which he was most delighted in.3.He could open either door he pleased: he was subject to no guidance orinfluence but that of the aforementioned impartial and incorruptible chance. He enjoyed total freedom to choose what to do: he was not directed orinfluenced by anyone as to which door to open. The only thing that was decisivein terms of his fate was the above-mentioned chance, granted to all theaccused alike.4.This element of uncertainty lent an interest to the occasion which itcould not otherwise have attained.The fact that no one could tell for sure what might happen (to theaccused) made this form of trial more attractive than any other form ofjustice.5.Thus the masses were entertained and pleased, and the thinking part ofthe community could bring no charge of unfairness against this plan; for didnot the accused person have the whole matter in his own handsThus people enjoyed coming here to watch, and those sensible people couldnot possibly question the fairness of this form of trial; for was it not thefact that all the accused were given equal chances to make decisions upontheir own destinyUnit51. This semi-barbaric king had a daughter as blooming as his most floridfancies, and with a soul as fervent and imperious as his own.This semi-barbaric king had a daughter as exuberant as the wildest of his notions, a daughter who possessed a nature as fierce and tyrannical as his own2.Of course, everybody knew that the deed with which the accused was charged and had been done.It was, of course, known to all, that he was guilty of the offense of conducting an affair with the princess.3.…but the king would not think of allowing any fact of this kind to interfere with the workings of the tribunal, in which he took such great delight and satisfaction.… even though the king was well aware that the love affair had taken place, he would still refuse to let the normal method of deciding guilt or innocent be disturbed, because he was extremely enthusiastic about his way of settling matters of this kind.4. but gold, and the power of a woman’s will, had brought the secret to the princess.but because she had the money, and above all, because her determination was irresistible, the princess was able to get across the secret.5. He understood her nature, and his soul was assured that she would never rest until she had made plain to herself this thing, hidden to all other lookers-on, even to the king.He knew her so well that he was perfectly positive that she would never cease to search for the secret, which remained unknown to all other spectators, even to the king himself.Unit61.There seems to be a general assumption that brilliant people cannot stand routine; that they need a varied, exciting life in order to do their best. It is generally believed that a colorless life can freeze a creative mind, and that only a colorful life can inspire a man to creative work.2. The outstanding characteristic of man’s creativeness is the ability to transmute trivial impulses into momentous consequences.One of the wonders human creativity works is that man can make full use of even significant feelings to produce far-searching results.3.An eventful life exhausts rather than stimulates.A life full of diversions stops man’s creativity instead of activating it.4.It is usually the mediocre poets, writers, etc., who go in search of stimulating events to release their creative flow.Only literary artists of an average type rely on excitements in life as a source for their creative work.5.People who find dull jobs unendurable are often dull people who do not know what to do with themselves when at leisure.People who are unable to see how to be patient with repetitious work are usually those who are unable to see where to find fun in life when itcomes to relaxation.Unit71. One of Socrates’ main pedagogical acts was to be ugly and teach those innocent, no doubt splendid-looking disciples of his how full of paradoxes life really was.The contrast between Socrates’ outward ugliness and his inner strengths served to tell his naïve and handsome followers the fact that there were many such strange contrasts in the world.2.We not only split off---- with the greatest facility ---- the “inside”(character, intellect) from the “outside”(looks); but we are actually surprised when someone who is beautiful is also intelligent, talented, good.We tend to resist the idea that inside beauty (character, intellect) can coexist with outside beauty (looks) in one single person, but in fact we are surprised to meet one who is beautiful both inside and outside.3.Associating beauty with women has put beauty even further on the defensive, morally.Connecting beauty with women has put beauty in a position which is subject to criticism concerning moral principles.4.If a woman does real work ---- and even if she has clambered up to a leading position in politics, law, medicine, business, or whatever ---- she is always under pressure to confess that she still works at being attractive. However successful a woman may be in her career as a politician, lawyer, doctor, businesswoman, or whatever, she unavoidably feels compelled to admit to making an effort to look attractive.5.One could hardly ask for more important evidence of the dangers of considering persons as split between what is “inside” and what is “outside” than that interminable half-comic half-tragic tale, the oppression of women.The biased attitude towards women ---- the long story of which is both lamentable and laughable ---- is the most powerful proof as to how harmful it can be to judge a person by refusing to put into consideration both inner beauty and outer beauty together.Unit81. Besides, the whole toffeeness of toffees was imperceptibly diminished by the gross act of having eaten it.Apart from that, the entire attraction of the toffee is gone once the toffee is eaten.2. So, for me, one of the keenest pleasures of appetite remains in the wanting, not the satisfaction.As far as I am concerned, the greatest pleasure appetite can offer is the longing for what I have yet to achieve rather than to feel content withwhat I have already achieved.is why I would carry the preservation of appetite to the extent of deliberate fasting, simply because I think that appetite is too good to lose, too precious to be bludgeoned into insensibility by satiation and overdoing itMy intentional denial of food might be explained by the urge to keep the desire for food constantly afresh in me, which means so much to me that I must handle it with the greatest care so as not to spoil it by overindulgence.4. A day of fasting is not for me just a puritanical device for denying oneself a pleasure, but rather a way of anticipating a rare moment of supreme indulgence.An occasional self-denial of food not an indication that I refuse to accept a pleasure. On the contrary, it is a good way to prepare me for pleasure that is even greater for being enjoyed infrequently.5. Life is short and precious, and appetite is one of its guardians, and loss of appetite is sort of death.Life is a brief journey, which is worth treasuring. Appetite is one of the thing that accompanies and protects the journey.Unit91. The person who illegally spits on the sidewalk remains disgusting, but clearly poses less risk to others than the company that illegally buries hazardous chemical waste in an unauthorized location.Spitting on the sidewalk is against the law and is always disgusting. But the harm it does to others seems insignificant when it is compared with the danger a company causes by disposing of poisonous chemical waste in a place where it is not permitted.2. Red light running has always been ranked as minor wrong, and so it may be in individual instances. When the violation becomes habitual, widespread and incessant, however, a great deal more than a traffic management problem is involved.Driving through the intersection of a street regardless of the red traffic light is generally considered as misbehavior of little importance. But when it develops into a social habit, it becomes a problem more serious than a mere traffic problem.3. Innocent drivers and pedestrians pay a repetitious price in frustration, inconvenience and outrage, not to mention a justified sense of mortal peril. The significance of red light running is magnified by its high visibility.Well-behaved drivers and pedestrians are constantly upset and threatened by danger from violations. The great impact of red-light running is due to its being so noticeable.4. For all their differences, today’s scofflaws are of a piece as asymptom of elementary social demonstration —the loss by individuals of the capacity to govern their own behavior in the interest of others.However different in forms, today’s scofflaw is an indication that the society has basically been degraded morally. People seem to have lost their ability to discipline themselves in such a way that the interests of others has been duly taken care of.5. The most disquieting thing about the scofflaw spirit is its extremeinfectiousness. Only a terminally foolish society would sit still and allow it to spread indefinitely.The rapid spread of scoff Lawry is its most disturbing characteristic.Only a totally irrational society could ever tolerate its unchecked growth.。

4.Sputtering ignitions can also be produced by squeezing a peel near a candle (at least one candle is always going at Christmastime), and leftover peels are set on the stove top to scent the house. --- If you squeeze an orange peel near a burning candle (as there is always at least one candle lit at Christmas season), you can see flickering flames. You put the remaining peels on the top of the stove to give the house a pleasant smell. 5.And if indeed you have sensed yourself coming down in a cold, there is a chance that you will feel it driven from your head--your nose and sinuses suddenly opening --- in the midst of the scent of peel and eating an orange.

第1单元避免两词铭记两词在生活中,没有什么比顿悟更令人激动和兴奋的,它可以改变一个人——不仅仅是改变,而且变得更好。

当然,这种顿悟是很罕见的,但仍然可以发生在我们所有人身上。

它有时来自一本书,一个说教或一行诗歌,有时也来自一个朋友。

在曼哈顿一个寒冷的冬天的下午,我坐在一个法国小餐馆,倍感失落和压抑。

因为几次误算,在我生命中一个至关重要的项目就这样落空了。

就因为这样,甚至连期望看到一个老朋友(我常常私下亲切的想到的一个老人)的情形都不像以前那样令我兴奋。

我坐在桌边,皱起眉头看着色彩多样的桌布,清醒的嚼着苦涩的食物。

他穿过街道,裹着旧棉袄,一顶帽子从光头打下来,看上去不像是一个有名的精神病医生,倒像是一个精力充沛的侏儒。

他的办公室在附近到处都有,我知道他刚刚离开他最后一个病人。

他接近80岁,但仍然扛着一个装着满满文件的公文包,工作起来仍然像一个大公司的主管,无论何时有空,他都仍然爱去高尔夫球场。

当他走过来坐我旁边时,服务员早已把他总是要喝的啤酒端了过来,我已经几个月没有见他了,但他似乎还是老样子。

没有任何寒暄,他就问我“怎么了,年轻人?”我已经不再对他的样子感到奇怪,所以我详细地把烦恼告诉他。

带着一丝忧伤的自豪。

我尽量说出实情,除了我自己,我并没有因为失望而责备任何人。

我分析了整件事情,但所有负面评价以及错误仍然继续。

我讲了约有十五分钟,这期间老人只是默默的喝着啤酒。

我讲完后,他取下眼镜说:“到我的办公室去。

”“到你的办公室?你忘了带什么了吗?”他和蔼的说“不是,我想看看你对某些事情的反应,仅此而已。

”外面开始下起小雨,但他的办公室很温暖,舒服,亲切:放满书的书架靠着墙壁,长皮沙发,弗洛伊德的亲笔签名照,还有墙边放着的录音笔。

他的秘书回家了,只有我们在那里。

老人从纸盒里拿出一盘磁带放进录音笔,然后说:“这里有到我这来求助的三个人的简单录音,当然,这没有说明具体是哪三个人。

我想让你听听,看你是否能找出双字词的短语,这里是在三个案例中共有的。

Book 6 Paraphrase units 4-8Unit 41.He was a man rich in whimsies, and intolerant of any act bold enough as to challenge hisauthority. When his mind caught upon something, absurd as it might be, he would do everything to make sure that it was done in the way he wished.2.When all his subjects behaved in such a manner as they were told to, he could be gentle and kind.And he could even be more so, if anything not conforming to what he expected should occur, because that offered a great chance for him to see the undesirable removed, a thing he was most delighted in doing.3.He enjoyed total freedom to choose what to do: he was not directed or influenced by anyone as towhich door to open. The only thing that was decisive in terms of his fate was theabove-mentioned chance, granted to all the accused alike.4.The fact that no one could tell for sure what might happen (to the accused) made this from of trialmore attractive than any other form of justice.5.Thus people enjoyed coming here to watch, and those guided by reason in the society could notpossibly question the fairness of this form of trial; for was it not the fact that all the accused were given equal chances to make decisions upon their won destiny?Unit51.This semi-barbaric king had a daughter as exuberant as the wildest of his notions, a daughter whopossessed a nature as fierce and tyrannical as his own.2.It was, of course, known to all that he was guilty of the offense of conducting an affair with theprincess.3.…,even though the king was well aware that the love affair had taken place, he would still refuseto let the normal method of deciding guilt or innocence be disturbed, because he was extremely enthusiastic about his way of setting matters of this kind.4..…; but because she had the money, and ab ove all, because her determination was so irresistible,the princess was able to get access to the secret.5.He knew her so well that he was perfectly positive that she would never cease to search for thesecret, which remained unknown to all other spectators, even to the king himself.Unit 61.It is generally believed that a colorless life can freeze a creative mind, and that only a colorful lifecan inspire a man to creative work.2.One of the wonders human creativity works is that man can make full use of even insignificantfeelings to produce far-reaching results.3. A life full of diversions stops man’s creativity instead of activating it.4.Only literary artists of an average type rely on excitements in life as a source for their creativework./ Great poets, writers, etc., create works of art out of trivial and common subject.5.People who are unable to see how to be patient with repetitious work are usually those who areunable to see where to find fun in life when it comes to relaxation.Unit 71.The contrast between Socrates’outward ugliness and his inner strengths served to draw theattention of his native and handsome followers to the fact that there were many such strange contrasts in the world.2.We tend to resist the idea that inside beauty (character, intellectual) can coexist with outsidebeauty (looks) in one single person, and are in fact taken aback to meet one who is beautiful both inside and outside.3.Beauty, when considered in relation to a female, involves a judgment of not only looks but alsocharacter and intellectual, making itself a much more controversial issue.4.However, a woman may be successful in her career as a politician, lawyer, businesswoman, orwhatever, she unavoidably feels compelled to admit to making an effort to look attractive.5.The biased attitude towards women—the long history of which is both lamentable and laughable—is the most powerful proof as to how harmful it can be to judge a person by refusing to put into consideration both inner beauty and outer beauty together.Unit 81.Apart from that, the entire attraction of the toffee is gone without your noticing it when youactually go so far as to eat it.2.As far as I am concerned, the greatest pleasure appetite can offer is the longing for what I haveyet to achieve rather than to feel content with what I have already achieved.3.My intentional denial of food might be explained by the urge to keep the desire for foodconstantly afresh in me, which means so much to me that I must handle it with the greatest care so as not to spoil it by overindulgence.4.An occasional self-denial of food is no sense an indication that I refuse to accept a pleasure whereI can. On the contrary, it is a good way to prepare me for pleasure that is even greater for beingenjoyed infrequently.5.Life is a brief journey, which is worth treasuring. Appetite is one of the things that accompaniesand protects the journey.。
