21世纪大学英语应用型综合教程（修订版）1Unit 5 Part AText AA simpl e life well lived1 The businessman was at the pier of small coastal Mexican village when a small boat with just one fisherman d ocked. Insid e the small boat were several large yell ow fin tuna. The businessman complimented the Mexican on the quality of his fish and asked how l ong it took to catch them. The Mexican replied, “Only a little whil e”.2 The businessman then asked why he didn’t stay out l onger and catch more fish. The Mexican said he had enough to support his family’s immediate needs. The businessman then asked, “But what d o you d o with the rest of your time?” The Mexican fisherman said, “I sl eep late, fish a little, paly with ma children, take a nap with my wife, Maria, stroll into the village each evening where I sip wine and play the guitar with my amigos; I have a full and busy life, senor.”3 The businessman scoffed, “I am a Harvard MBA and I could help you. You shoul d spend more time fishing, and with the proceeds buy a bigger boat. With the proceeds from the bigger boat you could buy several boats; eventually you woul d have a fl eet of fishing boats. Instead of selling your catch to a mid dl eman, you woul d sell directly to the processor and eventually open your own cannery. You would control the product, processing and distribution. You woul d need to l eave this small coastal fishing village and move to Mexican City, then LA and eventually New York City where you would run your expanding enterprise.”4 The Mexican fisherman asked, “But senor, how l ong will this all take?” To which the businessman replied, “15-20 years”. “But what then, senor?” The businessman laughed and said, “That’s the best part! When the time is right you woul d announce an IPO and sell your company stock to the public and become very rich. You would make millions.” “Millions, senor? Then what?” The businessman said, “Then you woul d retire, move to a small coastal fishing village where you would sl eep late, fish a little, play with your kids, take a siesta with your wife, stroll to the village in the evenings where you could sip wine and play your guitar with your amigos.”5 The fisherman, still smiling, l ooked up and said, “Isn’t that what I’m d oing right now?”6 We live in a worl d in which being successful is everything. Success is measured by power, popularity, control, achievement, and winning. Having more and being more is success. The businessman measured success by the accumulation of wealth and by living an extravagant life. He hel d a Harvard MBA, millions of d ollars, and status as a powerful businessman. “The person with the most toys wins” is a fitting motto.7 Possessions and wealth are not enough. While comforting, wealth cannot fulfill. Benjamin Franklin was of the op inion, “Money never mad e a man happy y et, nor will it. The more a man has, the more he wants. Instead of filling a vacuum, it makes one.” Wealth may help us to escape emptiness for a short while; it cannot cure it.8 The businessman accumulated money to support his retirement. It was wise to plan for the future. Yet, what sort of life was he living in the present? The businessman was so future-oriented that he hadn’t taken sufficient time to question what the future l ooked like. The businessman was living for what the Mexican already enjoyed – a simple life well lived.9 Rudyard Kipling, giving a commencement ad dress at McGill University in Montreal, said there was one striking thing that d eserves to be remembered about peopl e. Warning the stud ents against an over-concern for money, power, or popularity, he said, “Someday you will meet a man who cares for none of these things. Then you will know how poor you are.” The businessman dis covered how poor he was when he met the Mexican fisherman.10 Ralph Wald o Emerson d efined succ ess in a simpl e life well lived as: “to laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent peopl e and affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to l eave the worl d a litter bit better, whether by a healthy chil d, a gard en patch, or an improved social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeed ed.”11 I think the Mexican fisherman woul d have agreed with Emerson.(731 words) 一个简单的生活生活1商人是在一个小的沿海墨西哥村庄的码头时，一个小的船，只有一个渔夫停靠。

This year, some shoppers, however, stayed up late on Thanksgiving night. This change in behavior was in large part due to the efforts of different stores to beat each other during the traditional start to the holiday shopping season. Some popular stores for the first time opened at midnight on Thanksgiving night to offer deals that once were reserved for the next day. It was reported that 24 percent of Black Friday shoppers were at stores at midnight.That’s up from 9.5 percent the year before when only a few stores were open during that time.But those hours mostly attracted the younger people. Of those shopping at midnight on Black Friday, 37 percent were aged 18 to 34. Older shoppers weren’t as quick to run to the stores. Only 23.5 percent of 35- to 54-year-olds were in stores by midnight. One department store, for example, attracted 10,000 people to its midnight opening and many of them were young people who turned out for the gift sets and discounted fashion items. Jenny, 15 years old, went out with her four cousins to one big department store at midnight and then shopped at another one until 2:30 a.m.Then, she and her cousins went home to bed.“It’s always been inconvenient,” Jenny says of the traditional 4 a.m. Black Friday openings of years past. “No one likes to wake up that early.”Q1: What is special about this year’s Black Friday shopping?Q2: Why did some stores open at midnight on Thanksgiving night?Q3: How many Black Friday shoppers were reported to go to the shops at midnight this year?Q4: What can we learn about the 15-year-old Jenny?Passage 2Scripts and answersMost people like to keep a healthy diet during the holiday season starting from Thanksgivingto Christmas and New Year. There are many social events to 1) celebrate and we love to look our best. We also need healthy food to 2) provide us with the energy necessary to go to all of theseparties with enthusiasm.But the unfortunate reality is that many of us have a hard time 3) sticking to healthy eatinghabits during the holidays. We face more 4) challenges at this time than we do during the rest of the year. Starting from Thanksgiving, many of us are already 5) anticipating gaining some weight. The holiday season is when we bring out abundant and delicious food. Turkey, ham, cakes and other great foods attract us to eat larger 6) portions than we need. Many of us are more likely than usual to 7) stuff ourselves, and not always with the healthiest food. Moreover, the holiday season is a busy, and often stressful, time of year. We are rushing too much, spending too much, and letting stress 8) take hold of us too often. This can lead to emotional eating, that is, eating too much or too little.Luckily, there are some 9) effective ways to fight holiday eating problems. Learn about the causes of and solutions for emotional eating. Eat some healthy food before you go to a party so that you won’t eat too much there. E xercise after the party is over. All these 10) strategies can help you curb holiday eating without reducing your holiday joy.。

That's what they called it. He didn't have to go to school.2．Still he could walk about. He could go fishing in the creek or the waterworks pond. There was a place up at the pond where in the spring the water came tumbling over the dam and formed a deep pool. It was a good place.

UNIT5TESTA克里夫·杨，令人意想不到的英雄1 澳大利亚一年一度的悉尼至墨尔本的马拉松比赛全长875 公里，被认为是世界上最艰难的马拉松赛事之一，对任何年龄段的世界顶尖运动员来说都是一项严酷的耐力考验。
体能超好的年轻选手在赛前要进行数月的训练，而且还和像耐克和阿迪达斯这样著名的赞助商签约，这些赞助商通过强大的资金和装备支持机制为选手提供资助和装备。
这项比赛历时七天，即使对那些为荣誉和奖金而赛的世界一流运动员来说，这项比赛也是对体能和力量的严峻考验。
2 1983年比赛那一天，克里夫·杨，一个牙齿已全部脱落的61 岁的农民业余选手也来参加比赛。
他脚穿橡胶靴，年龄也比其他选手大得多。
没有人注意到这个外表古怪的老头，他就跟个隐身人差不多。
聚集的人群以为克里夫只是来观看比赛的。
当克里夫明确表示自己是来参赛的时候，他周围的世界级选手先是表示出明显的怀疑，继而予以鄙视。
显然，人们认为这只是媒体的炒作而已。
3但是媒体记者颇为好奇，所以当克里夫领好自己的参赛号码，走进配备昂贵的特殊装备的参赛选手队伍时，镜头对准了他，聚集的记者们向他抛来一个又一个问题。
他们问：“你是谁？”“你来做什么？”4 “我是克里夫·杨。
我来自墨尔本郊外的一个大农场，我们在那里养羊。
”5 他们接着问道：“你为什么认为自己有能力参加这项比赛？跑完全程要花一周的时间，而且每晚的睡眠不足六个小时。
”6 克里夫回答道：“我放羊时每一次都要跑上两三天。
这项比赛只是需要再多花几天而已。
我相信我可以做到。
”7 很快，马拉松比赛开始了，年轻的运动员把克里夫远远地甩在了后面。
人们笑了，有些人还大声地笑，因为克里夫甚至连跑步的姿势都不正确。
他跑步的样子怪极了，因为他似乎是在拖着脚走。
随着比赛的进行，体育解说员和观众们的注意力都放到了那些领先的选手身上。
想象一下第二天早上看到新闻报道说克里夫还在比赛的队伍里时，人们有多么惊奇！不仅如此，他还彻夜未眠，一直在跑。

3. 昨天，布克先生宣布说要进行单元测验，如果不及格，就得星期六也要来学校。
他还特别提到我，因为我上次测验没通过。
象往常一样，他就当着全班同学的面说我，你可以想象我有多讨厌他。
4. 但事实上，我的确曾准备好好复习，prove to him that I'm plenty smart—which I am mostly—except in math, which I'd be okay in if I'd memorize my times tables. Anyway, I got my desk ready to study on since it was stacked with about two million things. Just when I was ready to work, Nicho came into my room with our new rabbit and it jumped on my desk and knocked the flashcards all over the floor.5．I yelled for my mother to come and help me pick them up, but Carlotta was crying as usual and Mother said I was old enough to help myself and a bunch of other stuff like that which mothers like to say. My mother's one of those people who tells you everything you've done wrong for thirty years like you do it every day. It drives me crazy.6．Anyway, Nicho and I took the rabbit outside but then Philip came to my room and also Marty from next door and before long it was dinner. After dinner my father said I could watch a special on television if I'd done all my homework.7．Of course I said I had.8．That was the beginning. I felt terrible telling my father a lie about the homework so I couldn't even enjoy the special. I guessed he knew I was lying and was so disappointed he couldn't talk about it.9．Not much is important in our family. Marty's mother wants him to look 想证明给他看我是蛮聪明的。
实际上，我是挺聪明的——数学除外——但只要我能记住那张乘法表，一切问题就迎刃而解了。
总之，我准备好好学习一番。
我先把书桌整理好，因为上面堆满了数不清的东西。
可正当我准备潜心学习时，尼克带着我们家新买的兔子走了进来，那只兔子跳到我桌上，把抽认卡弄得满地都是。
5. 我大声喊着，叫母亲过来帮我清理这些卡片。
但卡洛特还在那边一如往常地哭着，于是母亲说我已经长大了，能自己做自己的事了。
她还说了一大堆母亲们惯说的话。
我母亲就是那种人。
你一旦犯了错，她就将这个错挂在嘴边，每天重复，说上整整30年。
就好像你天天都在重犯这个错误一样。
她这样真要把我逼疯了。
6. 就这样，我和尼克将兔子拎了出去。
可是，菲利浦又进来了，还带着隔壁的马丁。
没多久，就开饭了。
吃完饭，父亲说如果我已经做完了作业，就可以看一个特别节目。
7. 我当然说我已经做完了作业。
8. 这就是我撒谎的开端。
因为对父亲撒了谎，我觉得忐忑不安，所以根本不能好好欣赏那个节目。
我猜想他知道我在说谎，但极度的失望已经使他无法和我谈论说谎这个问题了。
9. 我们家的家规并不严。
马丁的母亲希望他随时随地都衣冠楚楚。
我的朋友内森必须okay all the time and my friend Nathan has to do well in school and Andy has so many rules he must go crazy just trying to remember them. My parents don't bother making up a lot of rules. But we do have to tell the truth—even if it's bad, which it usually is. You can imagine how I didn't really enjoy the special.10．It was nine o'clock when I got up to my room and that was too late to study for the unit test so I lay in my bed with the light off and decided what I would do the next day when I was in Mr. B.'s math class not knowing the 8 ─ and 9 ─ times tables.11．So, you see, the cheating was planned after all.12．But at night, thinking about Mr.B.—who could scare just about anybody I know, even my father—it seemed perfectly sensible to cheat. It didn't even seem bad when I thought of my parents' big thing about telling the truth.13．I'd go into class jolly as usual, acting like things were going just great, and no one, not even Mr. B., would suspect the truth. I'd sit down next to Stanley Plummer—he is so smart in math it makes you sick—and from time to time, I'd glance over at his paper to copy the answers. It would be a cinch. In fact, every test before, I had to try hard not to see his answers because our desks are practically on top of each other. 在学校表现得出类拔萃。
安迪家有那么多家规，光是记住那些条条框框就够他受的了。
我父母并不挖空心思制定一大堆家规，但在我们家，大家都必须说实话，即便实话和坏事有关。
的确，说的实话常和坏事有关。
