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

For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine. They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce your chances of getting stuck in traffic jams.。

7. It's not unusual for people to feel a pain directly behind their breastbone and think that it can't be their heart, because everyone knows that is in the left side of the chest.It's not unusual, but it's wrong. While people think that the problem is in their airways, it is often (36) their heart, Helmut Gohlke of the German Association says.The (37), known as angina (心绞痛), reveals itself as pain behind the breastbone. It's an illness where the blood (38) to the heart muscle is restricted. If not (39) and treated in a timely manner, it can lead to a heart attack and death.The pain behind the breastbone radiates mostly to the throat, the upper abdomen and the left arm. It is (40) described as a dull, wearing feeling of compression, says Christian Hamm of the German Heart Association. Women often (41) about lack of air. All those suffering say the pain comes suddenly and in (42) but does not last for days on end.Steady forms of angina are (43) by exertion (努力,费力), like physical work or stress. "The pain usually disappears with rest," Hamm says.Things are reversed in the more (44), unstable form of the disease. The pain appears out of nowhere, meaning there is a danger of a coming heart attack due to the complete blockage (堵塞) of a blood vessel. Both forms require a(n) (45 trip to the doctor.A) intervals B) obvious C) recognized D) prompted E) actuallyF) times G) transforms H) immediate I) flow J) complain K) dangerousL) inspired M) typically N) sometimes O) condition8.Being fat is bad for you. On that, almost everyone agrees. It is just possible, though, that almost everyone is wrong. In fact, getting fat may be a mechanism that protects the body. The health problems (36) with fatness may not be caused by it but be another consequence, another symptom, of overeating.That is the heretical (异端邪说的) (37) of Roger Unger and Philipp Scherer. They have been (38) the science of what has come to be known as metabolic syndrome (代谢综合症). This is a host of symptoms such as high blood pressure, insulin (胰岛素) resistance and fatness that seem to increase the (39) of heart disease and strokes and liver disease. Metabolic syndrome is (40) in one-sixth of the American population."Syndrome" is the medical term for a (41) of symptoms whose common cause is not properly understood. The symptom of metabolic syndrome that appears first is usually fatness, so this is generally regarded as the (42) cause.Dr. Unger and Dr. Scherer, however, turn this logic on its head. They point out that there is usually a period of many years between a person becoming overweight and his (43) other symptoms. If the growth of the body cells was directly harmful, that would not be the case. This is one of the lines of evidence that has led them to the conclusion that, in addition to its role in storing energy as a way to (44) against future famine, getting fat is a (45) mechanism against metabolic syndrome.A) proposal B) issue C) developing D) stored E) protective F) negativeG) fight H) collection I) reviewing J) assigned K) risk L) found M) discoveredN) associated O) potential9. Suffering with joint pain? Millions of Americans suffer with joint pain for a variety of reasons. Sports fatigue, arthritis (关节炎) and aging can all cause wear and tear on your joints (36) to discomfort and painful joints. Every single (37) your body makes puts pressure on your joints. Up, down, side to side your joints are (38) strained.For some people, just moving around results in joint pain. Even people with (39) joint pain suffer through activities they once loved. Your joints age over time and like any part of your body, they require regular care and comfort. Many people don't realize how important joint care is, or how to stop joint pain. Some people (40) painful joints are just part of life.However, (41) discovery is changing everything. Researchers in Cambridge have discovered a new compound of all-natural ingredients that (42) to relieve joint pain, improve mobility (灵活性), and in some cases protect the actual joints themselves. The new formula, branded under the trademark Green Light Joint Support, includes ingredients with clinical (43) nothing short of amazing.The samples arrive just a few days after ordering and unlike most joint relievers, the results are almost (44) . By the second week of the trial, results can be even more impressive with increased flexibility.After trying many of the joint relief products on the (45) , we've found huge differences in quality. It is an impressive product and a great choice for anyone looking to comfort and relieve their joints.A) assume B) breakthrough C) constantly D) determined E) elements F) essentiallyG) immediate H) leading I) market J) movement K) occasional L) promises M) rationalN) surface O) trials10.It's college graduation season in the United States. Even in today's weak economy, students from famous Ivy League universities like Harvard have an extra (36) on the road to financial success. However, not everyone in Harvard College's Class of 2010 is (37) for a profitable career. The director of Harvard's Office of Career Services is (38) her students with the right employers and career opportunities, often in the fields of education, international development and public service.Graduating senior Wes Howe (39) to become a mainstream journalist, but he became (40) about social justice while working as a reporter during summer break. Howe wrote a news article about a man who spent his savings on a house that turned out to be a failure. The circumstances pointed to criminal (41) by the seller, but the man has no way to get his money back. Howe was angry, but felt that, as a newspaper reporter, there was little he could do about it. "There is a point where (42) injustice wasn't enough," Howe says, "and actually working either toward changing either the law or bringing this to the attention of law enforcement (实施) was something that was interesting to me."Statistics from Harvard's Office of Career Services do not show a (43) among students away from profitable careers in the (44) sectors and toward public service. However, one thing is clear: many of today's best and brightest are also (45) to ensuring the well being of America's communities tomorrow.A) associated B) advantage C) benefit D) committed E) disposing F) exposing G) expectingH) fraud I) intended J) matching K) private L) passionate M) public N) tend O) trend7.46.Insurers cut off the woman's benefits because she gave away too much her information on Facebook.47.A job candidate would be turned down if the employer found some negative information about him on Facebook.48.The mom found her biological children on Facebook, but the children don't want anything to do with her.49.Facebook can make it easier for your follower or insulting partner to follow your movements.50.Lenders use Facebook to decide whom they would lend money to and creditors use Facebook to track their debtors down.51.Kids might be targeted by killers.52.Facebook could make people feel depressed.53.Facebook can cause you trouble because you might be charged for libel.54.Divorce lawyers use information they get from Facebook to defend clients.55.Your friends might give away your secrets even if you thought you were careful enough. 8.46.Scientists should remember that their job is to do good science.47.Finally many scientists realize that they should accept the public criticism and regain the public support although they thought their cirtics were ignorant.48.After the exposure, more Americans thought that they were cheated by the climate scientists.49.Climate scientists need to do something that they haven't experienced before in order to change the status quo.50.The exposure of errors has badly ruined the public confidence in the science.51.Scientists need to regain their reputation and draw the public attention again back to the climate change.52.Some scientists were charged with hiding data and faking results.53.However, some critics are still unsatisfied with the climate scientists and their work.54.The officials and institutions are making efforts to imporve their work and trying to regain public confidence.55.The United Nations IPCC were forced by the critics to reform, reviewing its research procedures and trying to eliminate bias and errors from their reports.9.46.Still you can keep fit if you are active most of the day though you don't have time to do exercise.47.You should try to get more knowledge of the company before you go to the interview.48.One of the lessons we learned from the incident is that we should remember, first of all, to leavea note about where we're going.49.Mobile phones and GPS units can help you enjoy your life, whereas they can also ruin it.50.You'll find it beautiful if you look at it with love.51.Good quality sleep can make you work faster and have more time in your day.52.Enough water in your body can make you act and feel young.53.You will win more clients if you can offer solutions instead of pointing out problems.54.Carrying heavy shoulder bags might cause an aching back.55.No matter how wonderful an eating plan seems to be, it is not successful if you can't carry it out.10.46.The map shows that wellness consumers care not only what they eat, but also how they live.47.Most American consumers prefer a healthier lifestyle rather than targeted responses.48.Consumers become clearer on what they should buy.49.People change from more general watching behaviors to more targeted health behaviors when they fall ill.50.Core wellness consumers take not only vitamins and mineral, but also special supplements.51.Cosumers become more and more health-conscious.52.Consumers think that supplements are very important in their lives.53.People start using supplements because of their nutritional needs, health conditions and aging.54.The core wellness consumers have more knowledge about supplements and are more brand aware.55.More people turn to use medicine when they experience health problems.。

Making the choice to be truly beautiful 选择拥有真正的美丽 1.Extreme makeovers are all the rage these days, with too many people addicted to Botox injection parties and reality shows. Plastic surgery is on the rise. Many people are trying to match the extraordinary measures actors and actresses go through to look perfect on the screen. Yet, the shortcuts to create biomedical happiness by having surgery, taking supplements or dieting don't usually fulfill their promise. Besides, beautiful people are not automatically happy people. 1.当今,过度追求相貌修整的风⽓⽆⽐盛⾏,太多的⼈沉迷于⾁毒杆菌注射的宣讲会和真⼈秀,整容⼿术也⽇趋流⾏。

2.Attaining the highest degree of your beauty is not about looking good during social interaction, or physiological perfection, and you can't get there via technology. It's a growth process, a transformation of self through awareness and learning. It's about meaning, and being real. It's an emotional and spiritual walk, and it requires faith fueled with liberal doses of loving kindness. 2.为了获得⽣物医学标准下的幸福感,⼈们会⾛做整容⼿术、吃营养品、节⾷这样的捷径,但这些捷径并不总能实现它们所承诺的效果。

Unit 2: Deer and the Energy Cycle Introductory RemarksLife depends on energy. All human beings eat food and make use of the chemical energy in it, and so do all other animals. Calling energy the currency of the ecological system, Prof. Moen argues that it is neither love nor money but energy that makes the world go round.However, our energy sources are limited and, to make matters worse, we are rapidly using up our energy supplies. It is extremely important therefore that we conserve the supplies we have so as to make them last as long as possible.In this article Prof. Moen describes in great detail the life of deer round the year and the various means by which they survive the hard winter. When he concludes by saying “it is biologically reasonable for deer to reduce their cost of living to increase their chances of surviving in winter,” he is actually leading us to the question: If deer can do that, why not we human beings?

大学体验英语综合教程4Unit2课文翻译及课后答案
Unit 2为什么数字文化对你有好处?最近,新闻媒体以及社会学家和行为学家们都发出大量警告指出:网络空间危险重重。
其实,万维网与世界上其它任何事物一样并非天然地有害。
它并非某种看不见摸不着的实体,能使危险降临进入它的每一个人。
实际上,网络就其本身而言是相当无害的,它没有超越其使用者并改变他们的存在的特殊功能。
正如古老的传说指出的一样,吸血鬼不请不会自入家门来伤害你,互联网也不会不请自来地使你堕落。
除孩子和意志薄弱者外,它不可能造成本来就不存在的东西…(1)如同酒精的作用一样,网络仅仅是将已有的事物放大:专家们担心,网上盛行的隐藏装假对参与数字文化的人来说是危险的。
他们告诉我们,我们不知不觉地全都会使用假身份,一个个变得残缺不全面目全非,以至于连自己都不敢肯定自己究竟是谁。
全错。
只有那些在“现实生活”中表现得诡秘莫测,毫不坦诚的人,才感到被迫要在网上伪装自己并用其它方法提供虚假情况。
网络只不过为他们增添了一种实施欺骗的工具。
因为我们了解现实生活中的这些人,所以被这些人欺骗的可能性很小。
因特网并不会“引起”人们去装扮成另一些人。
至于数字文化中人被这些不诚实的家伙欺骗的问题,就如同“现实”生活中一样,网上同样有许多“信号”会揭露他们的骗术。
有水平的网迷能识别在线人行为所发出的很多危险信号。
尤其是经过一段时间之后,别的用户的意图常常是非常清楚的。
有人试图在网上欺骗我们时,常常会明白无误地表现为自我矛盾,这是力求取信而过分涂抹,甚至说话虚假、令人难信的必然迹象。
同样,与在“现实世界”中一样,许多其它令人讨厌的倾向在网上也都能很容易地识别出来。
孤芳自赏(一切围绕“我我我”)在网络上也老远就会被发现,因为他们都是些只说别人反话或坏话的人,认为只有吹灭他人的蜡烛自己才能闪光的人。

Summary Talking points
Active reading 2: Destination
Read the following summary and use the phrases from the text to replace the underlined words. waged Henry Miller depicts the struggle he made to obtain books when he was young, and then introduces the reason that makes a book live—that is, the enthusiastic passionate recommendation of one reader to another. In his eyes, books are one of the few things men cherished deeply, possessions but if you lend it to others, it makes friends for you. He continues to suggest that the vast majority of books overlap repeat what others say, so read as little as possible. He then advices such a way to test his suggestion—that is, leave a book alone, but think as intensely as possible and if you decide to read, observe with what extraordinary acumen you tackle read it and realize that very little of the books is really new to you.
