自考综合英语二课文
L1 P14 Why does the author tell s not to be afraid to ask stupid questions？The author thinks that many apparently naive inquiries like why grass is green，or why the sn is round，or why we need 55，000 unclear weapons in the world ——are really deep questions. He says when you try to get the answers，you will gain deep understanding of the things. Its also important to know，as well as you can，what it is that you dont know，and asking questions is the way. He also tell us to ask stupid questions requires courage on the part of the asker and knowledge and patience on the part of the answers. And dont confine your learning to schoolwork. Discuss ideas in depth with friends. Its much brave to ask questions even when theres a prospect of ridicule than to suppress your questions and become deadened to the world around you.L2 Icons P30 What are the factors to shift the hero-worship to the lebrity-worship？The new forms of media——photography，moving pictures，radio and television are the main factors. The reproduction of photos in newspapers turned famous people into celebrities whose dress，appearance，and personal habits were widely commented upon. Slowly，the focus of public attention began to shift away from knowing what such people did to knowing what looked like. The shift was accelerated by the arrival of moving pictures. Between 1901 and 1914，74 percent of the magazine articles about famous people were about political leaders，inventors，inventors，professionals，and businessmen. After 1922，however，most articles were about movie stars. With the arrival of television，the faces of the stars became as familiar as those we saw across the breakfast table. We came to know more about the lives of the celebrities than we did about most of the people we know personally. Less than seventy years after the appearance of the first movimg pictures，the shift from hero-worship to celebrity-worship was complete.L3 GO-GO AMERICAN P46 What is the Americans attitude towards time？Give necessary examples. In the United States，many people keenly feel the shortness of each lifetime. They are aware that once a day in their life is gone，it will never come back. And Americans believe no one stands still .If you are not moving ahead，you are falling behind. So they value time and want every minte to count. This attitde towards time is shown in the fast pace of life in the country. Whatever they do they always seem to be in a rush. You find people hurrying to get where they are going. They hurry to eating places for a mea and finish it as quickly as possible. Also Americans do what they can to save time. They produce a lot of labour-saving devices such as clothes-and dish-washers；they rapidly communicate through phone calls，telex and e-mail and cut down on personal contacts.L4 Take Over，Bosn！P62 Can you imagine what did Barret think of when he heard Snyders whisper Take over，bosn？Becase of thirst，Barret was almost out of mind. He rose several times and was a constant threat. But when he heard Snyder said“Take over，bosn，he had a strange feeling suddenly. He came to realize he would and must take over the task and be responsible for the rest. As long as he stopped others from the little water，they would always have hopes and wouldnt die soon. So he picked Snyders gun up and decided to hold off the other from the water until night when a ship saved them.L5 Are You Giving Your Kids Too Much？P78 Why parents overindulge their children？There are several reasons to explain why parents overindulge their children. One fairly common reason is that parents overindulge their chidren out of a sense of guilt. Parents who both hold down full-time jops may feel guilty about the amount of time they spend away from their children and may attempt to compensate by showering them with material possessions. Other parents overindulge because they want their children to have everything they had while growing up，along with those things the parents yearned for but didnt get. Still others are afraid to say no to their childrens denless requests for toys for fear that their children will feel unloved or will be ridiculed if thy dont have the same playthings their friends have.L6 Culture Shock P94 What are four stages that people go through when they experience situations that are very different from those to which they are accustomed？Stage one is a honeymoon phase，during which the new experience is perceived to be interesting，picturesque，entertaining，and charming. You may notice several superficial differences such as music，food，and clothing，and the fresh apeal of the new experience keeps you feeling interested and positive. When you stay in a new envirnment for a while，you move to stage two-the crisis stage-in which the shine wears off and day-to-day realities sink in. In relationship，you notie annoying habits；in a new country，you find barriers to establishing connections or to learning the language beyond a few polite phrases. If you stick with theexperience and try to deal with it realistically，you will probably move to the third phase：recovery. In recovery，you learn the systems，procedures，language or nonverbal behaviors of the new environment so that you can cope with it on the basis of some mastery，competence，and comfort. Finally，when you feel that you function well and almost automatically in the new culture，you will move to the fourth phase：adjustment.L7 The Model Millionaire（I）P108 Suppose you are the millionaire.Explain how you get to know Hughie Erskine and what you do in return for the pound he gave you when you first met. I am Baron Hausberg. I have enough money to buy the whole of London. One day，on a whim I asked my artist friend Alan Trevor to pain me as a beggar. Alan had almost finished the picture when a very charming young man walked into his studio.I suppose he must have been very sympathetic with me，for when Alan was away a minute，the young man quickly put a pound into my hat. I was startled for a moment，but I was pleased when I realized that he took me for a real begger. Later I learned from Alan all about this young man：he was poor，and could not marry the girl he loved because her father wouldnt let them unless he had 10，000 pounds.Touched by the young mans spirit of kindness，I decided to help him. The next day I had a cheque for 10，000 pounds delivered to him as a wedding gift.L8 The Model Millionaire（II）P123 Retell the story The Model Millionaire in about 150 words，concluding your retelling with a one-sentence comment. Hughie Erskine was a charming young man who was in love with a nice girl called Laura uras father made it clear to Hughie that he would not marry his daughter to him until Hughie had ten thousand pounds. One day，Hughie went to see his artist friend Alan Trevor in his studio. There he found his friend painting a beggar，who was an old man in rags.Hughie felt so sorry for the poor model that he gave him the only pound he had. The old model was actually a millionaire.When he heard all about Hughie and Laura，and their problem，he had a cheque for ten thousand pounds delivered to him the very next day.The couple were happily married，and the beggar attended their wedding. The story shows that a genuine millionaire is not one who has，but who give.L9 Only Three More Days P139 The author got a solution finally. What was the solution？Was it risky？He laid out the diaries in two big steel suitcases. Over them he palced a number of his broadcast scripts，each page of which had been stamped by the military and civilian censors as passed for broadcast. On top he put a few General Staff maps he had picked up from friends. Then he phoned the Gestapo Headquarters to say he had a couple of suicases full of his dispatches，broadcasts and notes that he wanted to take out of the country. As he was flying off early the next day，there would be no time for Gestapo official at the airfield to go over the contents. Could they take a look now，if he brought them over；and if they approved，put a Gestapo seal on the suitcases so he wouldnt be held up at the airport？Yes，it was risky. He thought life in the Third Reich had always been risky. It was worth a tryL10 The Washwoman P155 Describe the situation that“I”saw the old washwoman for last time. One evening，while Mother was sitting near the oil lamp mending a shirt，the door opened and a small puff of steam，followed by a gigantic bag，entered the room. I ran toward the old woman and helped her unload her bag. She was even thinner now，more bent. Her head shook from side to side as though she were saying no. She could not utter a clear word，but mumbled something with her sunken mouth and pale lips. After the old woman had recovered somewhat，she told us that she had been ill badly. But as soon as she was able to stand on her feet once more，she began her washing. She said “I could not rest easy in my bed because of the wash. The wash would not let me die.……I dont want to be a burden on anyone！”L11 How I Served My Apprenticeship 170 Why was Andrew Carnegie so pround of the one dollor and twenty cents——the first pay he brought home？Carnegie was very pround of the one dollar and twenty cents he earned for the first time in his life when he was only twelve. The money，though small in amount，meant a great deal. First，when he got his first pay he felt that he had grown up. He was no longer a boy who had to depend on his parents；he had become a man who was able to help support the family，a contributing member. This was important because at that time life was hard for the family and it was difficult for his parents to manage alone. Also he though the money was the direct reward of honest manual labor. It represented a week of very hard work. This money gave him the greatest satisfaction of being rewarded for what he had done.L12 A Friend of the Environment P185 Why did Rachel Carson write the Silent Spring？Whats the content of it？Because she felt that the wonders of Nature are precious and permanent，and much of Nature was forever beyond the destruction of man. But then she discovered she was wrong. She learned with sadness that little in Nature is truly beyond the tampering reach of man. Then，She wrote the book Silent Spring to sound a startling warming to mankind and the book showed quite clearly that man was endangering himself and everything else on this planet by his indiscriminate use of chemical pesticides. As her title suggests，Miss Carson was saying that there might come a springtime that would indeed be silent because the birds，as well as other creatures，and plants would have been destroyed by the man-made poisons used to kill crop-threateding insects.L13 Who Shall Dwell？P201 In the story Who shall Dwell？，how did the fatners attitude towards the neighbours change？What brought about the change？When the bomb alert came，the father was clear that he had built the shelter for his own family，and that he would not let anybody else in. So when his neighbours came and asked to share the shelter he rejected them flatly. When a monther begged him to take her little girl in ，he did not know what to do. At that monent his wife dashed outside and pushed the girl in. her act set him thinking hard. Just a moment before the first bomb struck he made a big decision. After giving his elder son a few instructions，he stepped out and shoved two children into the shelter. He stood beside his wife，ready to spend the last minute with her. His change seemed sudden，but was actually quite natural. He loved his children，so he was greatly affected by the monthers plea and gave the chance of surival to the two children. Also his love for his wife led him to follow her example.L14 Cipher in the Snow P218 Describe Cliff Evans life before his sudden death. Cliff Evans lived with his mother，stepfather and five younger half brothers and sisters. His stepfather had never legally adopted him，nor did he show any affection for him. At home Cliff didnt talk much and had never told his family about his problems. When he began school，he was timid but eager to learn. And his IQ was pretty good. Then in the third grade a teacher wrote in the school record that he was uncooperative and slow. Since then he had never got any encouragement from his teachers. Gradually，the child had no more confidence left. He never smiled nor talked much. He had no friends；he had never belonged to a club，never played on a team and never held an office. He came to school by himself and left by himself. In class，he would sit back in the last seat. Finally he became silent and lonely. He became nothing.L15 Bribery——An Inevitable Evil？P232 What are the major forms of bribery？Bribery can be classified into three broad categories. The first category consisits of large amounts of money paid for political purposes or to secre major contracts. For example， a certain American company offered big sums of money to support a U.S. presidential candidate when it was nder investigation. Also in order to get big contracts，such payments are often made to ruling families or their close advisers. The second category covers payments made to obtain quicker official approval of some project. In such cases，the money is often paid to key goverment officials concerned. The third category involves payments made in certain countries to make a business deal easy to get approved. For instance， a foreign company may pay to get permission to import equipment. A common type of this category is the facilitating payment to clear cargoes. These are smaller sums of money paid to customs officials.L16 A Social Event P250 What do you know about Randy and Carle in A Social Even？Why are they anxious to get invited to Scottys funeral？Randy and Carole are a young Hollywood couple. They have been married only a short time. Both have achieved a certain degree of success in pictures，but their careers in the show business are still in the promising stage.

It is said that flowers have come from the U.S. President and the British Queen. Randy and Carole think it is extremely important for their career to be seen there with a lot of big shots. But they havet got an invitation while some of their Hollywood friends，also young actors and actresses like themselves，have been invited.

综合英语二课文概括 (1-8课)
综合英语二课文概括 (1-8课)BOOK ⅠL1 P14 Why does the author tell s not to be afraid to ask stupid questions? The author thinks that many apparently naive inquiries like why grass is green, or why the sun is round, or why we need 55,000 nuclear weapons in the world --are really deep questions. He says when you try to get the answers, you will gain deep understanding of the things. It’s also important to know, as well as you can, what it is that you don’t know, and asking questions is the way. He also tells us to ask stupid questions requires courage on the part of the asker and knowledge and patience on the part of the answers. And don’t confine your learning to schoolwork. Discuss ideas in depth with friends. Its much brave to ask questions even when there’s a prospect of ridicule than to suppress your questions and become deadened to the world around you.L2 Icons P30 What are the factors to shift the hero-worship to the celebrity-worship?The new forms of media--photography, moving pictures, radio and television are the main factors.The reproduction of photos in newspapers turned famous people into celebrities whose dress, appearance, and personal habits were widely commented upon. Slowly, the focus of public attention began to shift away from knowing what such people did to knowing what looked like.The shift was accelerated by the arrival of moving pictures. Between 1901 and 1914, 74 percent of the magazine articles about famous people were about political leaders, inventors, inventors, professionals, and businessmen. After 1922, however, most articles were about movie stars. With the arrival of television, the faces of the stars became as familiaras those we saw across the breakfast table. We came to know more about the lives of the celebrities than we did about most of the people we know personally. Less than seventy years after the appearance of the first moving pictures, the shift from hero-worship to celebrity-worship was complete.L2 GO-GO AMERICAN P46 What is the Americans attitude towards time? Give necessary examples.In the United States, many people keenly feel the shortness of each lifetime. They are aware that once a day in their life is gone, it will never come back. And Americans believe no one stands still. If you are not moving ahead, you are falling behind. So, they value time and want every minute to count.This attitude towards time is shown in the fast pace of life in the country. Whatever they do they always seem to be in a rush. You find people hurrying to get where they are going. They hurry to eating places for a meal and finish it as quickly as possible.Also Americans do what they can to save time. They produce a lot of labour-saving devices such as clothes-and dish-washers; they rapidly communicate through phone calls, telex and e-mail and cut down on personal contacts.L4 Take Over, Bosn! P62 Can you imagine what did Barret think of when he heard Snyder’s whisper Take over, bosn?Because of thirst, Barret was almost out of mind. He rose several times and was a consta nt threat. But when he heard Snyder said “Take over, bosn, he had a strange feeling suddenly. He came to realize he would and must take over the task and be responsible for the rest. As long as he stoppedothers from the little water, they would always hav e hopes and wouldn’t die soon. So, he picked Snyder’s gun up and decided to hold off the other from the water until night when a ship saved them.L5 Are You Giving Your Kids Too Much?P78 Why parents overindulge their children?There are several reasons to explain why parents overindulge their children. One fairly common reason is that parents overindulge their children out of a sense of guilt. Parents who both hold down full-time jobs may feel guilty about the amount of time they spend away from their children and may attempt to compensate by showering them with material possessions. Other parents overindulge because they want their children to have everything they had while growing up, along with those things the parents yearned for but didn’t get. Still others are afraid to say no to their children’s dintless requests for toys for fear that their children will feel unloved or will be ridiculed if thy don’t have the same playthings their friends have.L6 Culture Shock P94 What are four stages that people go through when they experience situations that are very different from those to which they are accustomed?Stage one is a honeymoon phase, during which the new experience is perceived to be interesting, picturesque, entertaining, and charming. You may notice several superficial differences such as music, food, and clothing, and the fresh apeal of the new experience keeps you feeling interested and positive. When you stay in a new envirnment for a while, you move to stage two-the crisis stage-in which the shine wears off and day-to-day realities sink in. In relationship, you notie annoyinghabits;in a new country, you find barriers to establishing connections or to learning the language beyond a few polite phrases. If you stick with the experience and try to deal with it realistically, you will probably move to the third phase:recovery. In recovery, you learn the systems, procedures, language or nonverbal behaviors of the new environment so that you can cope with it on the basis of some mastery, competence, and comfort. Finally,when you feel that you function well and almost automatically in the new culture, you will move to the fourth phase:adjustment.L7 The Model Millionaire(I) P108 Suppose you are the millionaire.Explain how you get to know Hughie Erskine and what you do in return for the pound he gave you when you first met.I am Baron Hausberg. I have enough money to buy the whole of London. One day, on a whim I asked my artist friend Alan Trevor to pain me as a beggar. Alan had almost finished the picture when a very charming young man walked into his studio.I suppose he must have been very sympathetic with me, for when Alan was away a minute, the young man quickly put a pound into my hat. I was startled for a moment, but I was pleased when I realized that he took me for a real begger.Later I learned from Alan all about this young man:he was poor, and could not marry the girl he loved because her father wouldnt let them unless he had 10,000 pounds.Touched by the young mans spirit of kindness, I decided to help him. The next day I had a cheque for 10,000 pounds delivered to him as a wedding gift.L8 The Model Millionaire(II) P123 Retell the story The Model Millionaire in about 150 words, concluding your retelling with a one-sentence comment. Hughie Erskine was a charming young man who was in love with a nice girlcalled Laura uras father made it clear to Hughie that he would not marry his daughter to him until Hughie had ten thousand pounds. One day,Hughie went to see his artist friend Alan Trevor in his studio. There he found his friend painting a beggar, who was an old man in rags.Hughie felt so sorry for the poor model that he gave him the only pound he had.The old model was actually a millionaire.When he heard all about Hughie and Laura, and their problem, he had a cheque for ten thousand pounds delivered to him the very next day.The couple were happily married,and the beggar attended their wedding.The story shows that a genuine millionaire is not one who has, but who give.。

People can also take home their “trophies (战利品)”, such as the ivory. But Germany doesn’t like this idea. Some people there think it’s bad for Earth.After knowing German’s ideas, Botswana had a funny plan.

I felt _____13_____ in Granny’s small kitchen. We always had peaceful conversations, and Granny always seemed to have some wisdom (智慧) with every dish she prepared.I remember one Saturday morning. I was about 11 years old. After breakfast I asked Granny, “What kind of _____14_____ are you making today?” “Vegetable beef,” she answered, “and you can help by cutting some carrots.” As I slowly cut the carrots. I said,“I’ve got to give a _____15_____ next week and I’m scared. I don’t like standing in front of everybody. What if I forget what I’m going to say? Or what if somebody laughs?” “And what if you do just fine?” Granny asked. “Have you _____16_____ notes?” “Well, no. That would be a lot of work.” “Hard work never hurts anyone,” Granny said, “you could try practicing in front of a mirror (镜子). It’s easy to find how well you are practicing.”I pushed the pieces of carrots to the side of the cutting board and then complained about schoolwork, friends and family. Granny took it all in, listening _____17_____ while I talked about so many pieces of grief (伤事) in my life. “Nancy,” she said, “there’s nothing wrong with a little trouble in your life. Well, you know, a lot of people don’t make homemade soup these days. They say it’s too much trouble. But I don’t _____18_____ such a little trouble. It adds flavor (滋味) to my soup—and to my life. My soup will be pretty bland (平淡的) without the vegetables, and so will my life be if it doesn’t have the little ups and downs.” She smiled and then started washing the dishes. While I helped Granny clean up, I thought about what she had said. I still had a few days to practice my report.That Saturday, Granny gave me food for thought as well as a bowl of her homemade soup. As I _____19_____ the meal with my grandparents, my problems didn’t seem so big any more. Maybe I could _____20_____ a little trouble into something as special as Granny’s homemade soup.

AI makes it possible for machines to learn from experience and perform human-like tasks. But what is the future of AI? Will it be a good thing? Students are talking about it.21．Tina thinks_________.A．AI will help us solve problemsB．AI will change the way we workC．we need to be careful about AID．AI robots will do lots of human jobs22．Who believes AI will develop at a high speed?A．Mary.B．Bill.C．Tina.D．John.23．John thinks that AI will be _________.A．dangerous B．usefulC．exciting D．surprisingJust move on! Never give up and you will see your wonderful future.One day, a young lady was driving along the long straight road with her father. Unluckily, they came upon a storm（暴风雨）. The young lady was very nervous, and she asked her father, “What should I do?” Her father answered, “Keep driving! Go, go, go.” At the same time, the young lady saw some other cars and buses begin to park on the side because the storm was getting worse.The young lady asked her father the same question again and her father told her to keep driving. But the daughter said, “Dad, I must park the car on the side. Everyone is parking on the side. I am afraid of the storm. It is terrible out there.” Her father still told her not to give up and asked her not to look back. The young lady had no choice but driving.After a few miles, they were on a dry land and the Sun was shining. The father said, “Now, park and get out of the car.”“But why now?” the daughter was confused（困惑的）and asked. The father said, “Look back at all the people that gave up. They are still in the storm. You didn’t give up, so now your storm is over.” The young lady stopped the car and got out of it. Thinking back what had happened, she felt relaxed and pleased.It is true that sometimes, in our real life, if we keep going on, our “storm” will soon be over and the “Sun” will shine upon our face again. When you meet some troubles, you should try your best to keep going on. Just go on and never give up. What’s more, pay more attention to yourself and do not look at others too much. Sooner or later, you will get your own goals. 24．How did the young lady feel when they came upon a storm?A．Excited.B．Happy.C．Nervous.D．Sad.25．How many times did the young lady ask her father the question“what should I do”?A．Once.B．Twice.C．Three times.D．Four times.26．What does the writer want to tell us?A．It is exciting to drive in a storm.B．It is great to have a clever father.C．Give up at the right time and look at others.D．Keep on going and you will see your future.We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. One might say, “Did Jerry really care when I broke up (分手) with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy (妒忌) my luck?” When we look back, doubts (怀疑) like these can make us feel bad.Why do we go wrong about our friends? Sometimes what people want to say hides their real meaning. And if we don’t really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. If someone tells you “You’re a lucky dog”, is he really on your side? If he says, “You are a lucky guy.” That’s being friendly. But if he says “a lucky dog”, there’s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn’t see it himself. But he puts you down a little if he brings in the “dog”. What he may say is that he doesn’t think you deserve (应得) your luck.“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another phrase that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? The thought in this phrase is that your problem isn’t important. It’s telling you to think of all the starving (挨饿的) people in the world when you haven’t got a date for Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone (语气) of voice, his posture (立场), or the look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake. So when you hear someone saying, please try to know what he really means. Don’t just listen to what he says with your ears but feel the words he uses with your head. In this way you may make fewer mistakes.27．The reason why we go wrong about our friends is that _________.A．we never believe what they sayB．we cannot listen carefully when they talkC．they sometimes say one thing but mean anotherD．they become angry when we know what they really mean28．When a person is talking, we should try to know _________.A．his tone, his posture and the look in his eyesB．his real meaning of what he saysC．his way the person is talkingD．his look when he is talking29．This passage is mainly about _________.A．what to do when we listen to others talkingB．how to tell the real meaning behind the wordsC．what to do when we know the wrong we will doD．how to avoid mistakes when talking with peopleAre kids getting too much praise（赞扬）? Too much praise may be doing kids more harm than good.A cover story in Scholastic Instructor magazine asks if kids today are over-praised. He is worried that while parents are trying to build up kids’ confidence, they are paying little attention to kids’ real goals and achievements（成就）. In a study, eighth graders in Korea and the United States were asked if they were good at math. Among the American students, 39% said they were excellent at math, but just 6% of the Korean eighth graders said they were good at math. But the fact was rather different. The Korean kids scored far better than the over-confident American students.The disadvantage of too much praise is that kids may start to focus on（注意）what they get rather than what they are learning. His confidence comes from a blind sense of achievement rather than his or her actual abilities, so when a student fails, the result can be devastating（毁灭性的）. This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t praise our kids or that teachers shouldn’t try to build up their students’ self-confidence. But self-confidence should be the result of good grades and real achievements, not empty praise from others.Last month, Cognitive Daily reported that parents and teachers should be specific rather than general when they offer praise. For example: General praise is telling a child, “You are smart”. Specific praise would be to say “you did a good job on reading...” or “you did greaton your math test”. Kids who receive general praise about their abilities probably show “helpless” behavior when they meet with problems with learning, compared with kids who receive specific praise about their achievement on a task. The reason: a child who knows she’s a smart girl feels defeated（挫败的）if she has trouble reading a sentence. But a child who has been told she is a good reader is more likely to have confidence in that specific ability and work a little harder to do with a more difficult book.30．What can we learn from the passage?A．The students in the United States are over-praised.B．Over-confident students may achieve much more.C．Kids’ self-confidence should come from teachers’ praise.D．Parents and teachers should give kids more general praise.31．The underlined word “specific” in Paragraph 4 means_________.A．scientific B．careful C．exact D．secret 32．What will kids who is getting general praise do when they face learning problems? A．Ask others for advice.B．Probably give up easily.C．Work them out alone.D．Work harder than before.33．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A．To encourage us to give up praising kids.B．To tell us Korean students are less confident.C．To explain why kids can get praise from parents.D．To prove too much praise may be harmful to kids.四、阅读回答问题I’d like to share a little story with you about something that happened when I was four. I remember it clearly. Our loving family dog was nearing the end of his life. My father picked him up and put him in a little bed we had made for him. Our dog, my friend, whom we had cared for, bit (咬) my father when he tried to help him. How could he? Why? I couldn’t understand it. I didn’t like him anymore.I hadn’t thought about that story for a long time, but something that happened last weekbrought it back to me. I went to speak with a friend. When I knocked on the door, I met an angry look and a few unkind words. When the door was slammed (砰地关上) in my face, I stood there shocked(震惊的), and suddenly, I was reminded of my dog biting my father 20 years ago or so. The same feeling of hurt brought that story back.Both stories taught me something the next day. You see, when I got up in the morning and was told my dog had died, it became clear to me that he must have been in great pain. For him to have bitten a family member, he could not have been himself. Much the same for the other story when I learned that my friend had just lost his job the day before.We are all living in our environments, our opinions and feelings. And all of those things can cause you to say and do things that can’t be understood by those who are not in the same situation with you.If you meet someone either acting out of character or in a way that doesn’t seem to fit the situation, put out your hand and be patient when you think it is least possible for him to do so. You may turn around a story that has a sad ending simply by your actions.34．How old was the writer when his pet dog was nearing end of his life?_____________________________________________________35．Did the dog bite the writer’s father when he tried to help him?_____________________________________________________36．What made the writer bring back the story of about 20 years ago?_____________________________________________________37．Why did the writer’s friend say unkind words?_____________________________________________________38．What does the story mainly tell us?_____________________________________________________五、电子邮件39．假如你是李华，你收到你的朋友Tom发来的邮件，询问你最喜欢的中国传统节日。

7 Overindulgence of a child also happens when parents are unable to stand up to their children's unreasonable demands. stand up to sb.: resist sb.'s request 抵制某人的要求 父母顶不住孩子们的无理要求也就娇惯了孩子。 Such parents vacillate between saying no and giving in -but neither response seems satisfactory to them. 这类家长举棋不定，对孩子的无理要求，不知道是该回绝还是该满足，觉得这两者都 不理想。 If they refuse a request, they immediately feel a wave of remorse for having been so strict or ungenerous. If they give in, they feel regret and resentment over having been a pushover. This kind of vacillation not only impairs the parent's ability to set limits, it also sours the parent-child relationship to some degree, robbing parents and their children of some of the happiness and mutual respect that should be present in healthy families. feel regret over sth. 就某事感到懊悔 sour：使…恶化 rob sb. of sth. : to deprive sb. of sth. 使某人失去…
2 I'm not complaining, only making a point. 我并不是抱怨，只是表明一个看法。 I think that the tendency to give children an overabundance of toys and clothes is quite common in American families, and I think in far too many families not only do children come to take their parents' generosity for granted, but also the effects of this can actually be somewhat harmful to children. an overabundance of：太多的，过多的 take sth. for granted：认为…理所当然 be harmful to sth/sb.：对…有害 我觉得给孩子过多的玩具和服装是美国家庭普遍的倾向。我还认为，在太多太多的家 庭里，这样做的结果不仅让孩子们认为父母对他们的大方理所当然，而且实际上还会对孩 子有一定程度的负面影响。
