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.Unit 3Language Sense Enhancement1.

At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy.

When we arrived at the town, Caroline was so excited that she darted towards the first bridge she saw and began singing loudly there. Suddenly her voice hushed when she found that she had startled a flock of ducks not too far from us. Now as Caroline was dying for a boat ride, we decided to tour the town by boat. Now loud, now soft, Caroline talked to all the creatures in the stream and was fussing about everything while I looked at the boats gliding over the water in silence. Though we did not see anything spectacular, we enjoyed every minute in the town that lies out of the range of the heavy traffic and noise of the large city.Zhouzhuang is worth visiting and, time permitting, I’d like to go there again.。

They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant to their assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5. Most of them displayed the same attitude asthe staff at the Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to important differences in educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9. One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently; in a second example, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works; and in a third, young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hoursa day.10. Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there isno hurry to promote creativity.11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12. The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1) The text begins with an anecdote.2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3) He winds up the text with a suggestion in the form of a question.2.

Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your head you cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpfulto summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.

大学英语综合教程2课后练习答案
UNIT 1陌生人的善意1 一年夏天,我从家乡加利福尼亚州的塔霍城开车前往新奥尔良。
在沙漠深处,我碰到一个年轻人站在路旁。
他一只手打出拇指向外的手势,另一只手里拿着一个汽油罐。
我直接从他身边开过去了。
别人会停下来的,我想。
再说,那汽油罐只是个让车停下、好抢劫司机的幌子而已。
在这个国家,曾有那么一段时间,你要是对需要帮助的人置之不理,大家会认为你是混蛋,而如今你要是帮了你就是笨蛋。
到处潜伏着犯罪团伙、吸毒上瘾者、杀人犯、强奸犯、盗窃犯还有劫车犯,为什么要冒险呢?“我不想卷进去”已经成为全国性的信条。
2 开过了几个州以后,我还在想着那个想搭便车的人。
把他一个人留在沙漠中倒并没有让我有多么不安。
让我不安的是,我多么轻易地就做出了这个决定。
我甚至根本没把脚从油门上抬起来。
我很想知道,现在还有人会停车吗?3 我想到我此行的目的地——新奥尔良。
那里是田纳西•威廉姆斯的剧作《欲望号街车》的背景地。
我回想起布兰奇•杜波依斯的名句:“我总是依赖陌生人的善意。
”4 陌生人的善意。
听起来好怪。
如今这年头还有谁能指望陌生人的善意吗?5 要验证这一点,一个办法是一个人从东海岸旅行到西海岸,不带一分钱,完全依靠美国同胞的善意。
他会发现一个什么样的美国?谁会给他饭吃、让他歇脚、捎他一程呢?6 这个念头激起了我的好奇心。
但谁会这么不切实际、愿意去尝试这样一次旅行呢?好吧,我想,那不如我来试试?7 满37岁那个星期,我意识到我这辈子还从没冒过什么险呢。
所以我决定来个观念的跨越,美洲大陆那么宽——从太平洋去大西洋,不带一分钱。
要是有人给我钱,我会拒绝。
我只接受搭顺风车、提供食物和让我歇脚的帮助。
这将是在这片金钱至上的土地上的一次身无分文的旅行。
我的最终目的地是北卡罗来纳州的“恐惧角”(即开普菲尔),它象征着我沿途必须克服的所有恐惧。

They were studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary schools in Nanjing.2.

They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant to their assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5. Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff at the Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that on can solve a problem effectively byoneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to important differences in educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9.

Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12. The author makes the suggestion that we shouldstrike a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1) The text begins with an anecdote.2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3) He winds up the text with a suggestion in the form of a question.2.
