课内阅读参考译文及课后习题答案(Book 4)Unit 1享受幽默—什么东西令人开怀?1 听了一个有趣的故事会发笑、很开心,古今中外都一样。
这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。
那么,到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢?2 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人,因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。
这些学生文化差异很大,有来自拉丁美洲的,也有来自中国的。
我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。
这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。
3 为什么听我讲完一个笑话后,班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合,而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢?显然,有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。
而且,我们也发现有的人很善于讲笑话,而有的人要想说一点有趣的事却要费好大的劲。
我们都听人说过这样的话:“我喜欢笑话,但我讲不好,也总是记不住。
”有些人比别人更有幽默感,就像有些人更具有音乐、数学之类的才能一样。
一个真正风趣的人在任何场合都有笑话可讲,而且讲了一个笑话,就会从他记忆里引出一连串的笑话。
一个缺乏幽默感的人不可能成为一群人中最受欢迎的人。
一个真正有幽默感的人不仅受人喜爱,而且在任何聚会上也往往是人们注意的焦点。
这么说是有道理的。
4 甚至有些动物也具有幽默感。
我岳母从前经常来我们家,并能住上很长一段时间。
通常她不喜欢狗,但却很喜欢布利茨恩—我们养过的一条拉布拉多母猎犬。
而且,她们的这种喜欢是相互的。
布利茨恩在很小的时候就常常戏弄外祖母,当外祖母坐在起居室里她最喜欢的那张舒适的椅子上时,布利茨恩就故意把她卧室里的一只拖鞋叼到起居室,并在外祖母刚好够不到的地方蹦来跳去,一直逗到外祖母忍不住站起来去拿那只拖鞋。
外祖母从椅子上一起来,布利茨恩就迅速跳上那椅子,从它那闪亮的棕色眼睛里掠过一丝拉布拉多式的微笑,无疑是在说:“啊哈,你又上了我的当。
”5 典型的笑话或幽默故事由明显的三部分构成。
第一部分是铺垫(即背景),接下来是主干部分(即故事情节),随后便是妙语(即一个出人意料或令人惊讶的结尾)。

(para. 2-4)Supporting evidenceA. Teachers called on males in class far more than on female students. (para 2)i) Its consequence: This has a tremendous impact on the learning process.ii) The reason for this: Active classroom participants develop more positive attitudesand go on to higher achievement.iii) Two examples:a. In many of the former all-women’s colleges, the boys were taking over the class-room discussions and active participation by womenstudents had diminished noticeably.b. A similar subordination of female to male students has also been observed in law and medical school classrooms in recent years.B. Teachers assigned boys and girls different tasks according to stereotyped gender roles. (para. 3)i) Its consequence: This prevented girls from participating as actively as boys in class.ii) An example: A teacher had the little boys perform the scientific experiment while the girls were given the task of putting the materials away.C. Gender-biased education is also reflected in the typical American teacher’assumption. (para 4)i) The assumption: Boys will do better in the hard, masculine subjects of math and science while girls are expected to have better verbal and reading skills.ii) Three examples:a. American boys do develop reading problems, while girls, who are superior to boys in math up to the age of nine, fall behind from then on.b. In Germany, all studies are considered masculine and it is girls who develop reading problems.c. In Japan, where early education appears to be nonsexist, both girls and boys do equally well in reading.(3) The educational bias begins at home. (para 5)A. Supporting evidence:i) Boy preschoolers were permitted to go away from home in a much wider area than girl preschoolers.ii) Boys were encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity and physical skills, while girls are filled with fears of the world outside the home and with the desire to be approved of for their goodness and obedience to rules.B. The consequence when these lessons carry over from the home to the classroom: Girls are generally observed to be more dependent on the teacher, more concerned with the form and neatness of their work than its content, and more anxious about being right in their answers than in being intellectually independent, analytical, or original.C. Conclusion: Through the educational process that occupies most of the child’s waking hours, society reinforces its established values and turns out each sex in its traditional and expected mold.V ocabulary1. 1) genetic 2) assign 3) noticeably 4) approved 5) Bias 6) deprived7) constituted 8) participation 9) unintentional 10) postgraduate 2.conscious- unconsciousencourage- discouragedirectly- indirectlysexist –nonsexistdependent- independentpositive –negativesuperior - inferiorbiased –fairlimited –unlimitedappropriately- inappropriately3. 1) C 2) D 3) A 4) E 5) B 6) C 7) F 8) B4. 1) turn out2) carry over3) calling on4) put away5) fallen behind6) take overunit4Reading Comprehension1. 1) Introduction(para 1)It is introduced in the article how teachers and parents can encouragecreativity in children.2) An important strategy for parents and teachers to follow (para. 2-3)A.

The approach: Combining the basics with the activities wherestudents mustuse their imaginations.B. How to do so: By asking questions and meanwhile praising their ideas andnew thoughts.C. How to facilitate the process: To create an atmosphere in which there is norisk in being creative-- a place where wild ideas are honored and valued,never scorned or dismissed.6) Things parents can do at home to encourage creativity (para. 8-10)A.

These isolated locations appeal to travelers who want to get close tO nature because they are tired of stressful city life.Other people who can afford neither the time nor the money for travel will stay at home,watching TV , going to the movies or concerts,or inviting some friends over for a party·Children like to go to the park,play computer games,and participate in sports.Young women like to go shopping while young men prefer to stay at home,watching TV and drinking tea.The popularity of pastimes varies according to age,sex,personality and financial situations. Whatever one’s pastime is。

在长达41年多的时间⾥,她出现在12部长篇⼩说、20篇短篇⼩说中——最后⼀次破案时她已经很⽼了。
从外表上看,马普尔⼩姐⾼⾼瘦瘦,⾯⾊红润⽽布满皱纹,有着⼀双淡蓝⾊的眼睛,雪⽩的头发在头上盘成⽼式的发髻。
她的外表看上去不会给任何⼈造成伤害。
再加上她那漫⽆边际的闲谈以及永远都在⾝边的⽑线针,她常常会引起⼈们的误解,把她仅仅看成是⼀位“犹犹豫豫的⽼⼥⼈”。
那可真是⼩看了她。
那些真正了解她的⼈都明⽩,她是⼈类本性敏锐的观察者,⽽且“不可思议地总是正确的”。
虽然马普尔⼩姐⼀⽣都⽣活在看上去枯燥乏味的圣玛丽牧场,她却相当⽼到地明⽩并接受“我们周围尽是邪恶”这个事实。
就像她经常指出的那样,⼤城市能找到的⼈性特征和邪恶,在她住的村⼦及周边也都能找到。

(para. 2-4) Supporting evidenceA. Teachers called on males in class far more than on female students. (para 2) i) Its consequence: This has a tremendous impact on the learning process. ii) The reason for this: Active classroom participants develop more positive attitudesand go on to higher achievement.iii) Two examples:a. In many of the former all-women’s colleges, the boys were taking over the class-room discussions and active participation by women students had diminished noticeably.b. A similar subordination of female to male students has also been observed in law and medical school classrooms in recent years.B. Teachers assigned boys and girls different tasks according to stereotyped genderroles. (para. 3)i) Its consequence: This prevented girls from participating as actively as boys in class.ii) An example: A teacher had the little boys perform the scientific experiment while the girls were given the task of putting the materials away.C. Gender-biased education is also reflected in the typical American teacher’assumption. (para 4)i) The assumption: Boys will do better in the hard, masculine subjects of math and science while girls are expected to have better verbal and reading skills. ii) Three examples:a. American boys do develop reading problems, while girls, who are superior to boys in math up to the age of nine, fall behind from then on.b. In Germany, all studies are considered masculine and it is girls who develop reading problems.c. In Japan, where early education appears to be nonsexist, both girls and boys do equally well in reading.(3) The educational bias begins at home. (para 5)A. Supporting evidence:i) Boy preschoolers were permitted to go away from home in a much wider area than girl preschoolers.ii) Boys were encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity and physical skills, while girls are filled with fears of the world outside the home and with the desire to be approved of for their goodness and obedience to rules.B. The consequence when these lessons carry over from the home to the classroom: Girls are generally observed to be more dependent on the teacher, more concerned with the form and neatness of their work than its content, and more anxious about being right in their answers than in being intellectually independent, analytical, or original.C. Conclusion: Through the educational process that occupies most of the child’s waking hours, society reinforces its established values and turns out each sex in its traditional and expected mold.Vocabulary1. 1) genetic 2) assign 3) noticeably 4) approved 5) Bias 6) deprived7) constituted 8) participation 9) unintentional 10) postgraduate2.conscious- unconsciousencourage- discouragedirectly- indirectlysexist – nonsexistdependent- independentpositive – negativesuperior - inferiorbiased – fairlimited – unlimitedappropriately- inappropriately3. 1) C 2) D 3) A 4) E 5) B 6) C 7) F 8) B4. 1) turn out2) carry over3) calling on4) put away5) fallen behind6) take overunit4Reading Comprehension1. 1) Introduction(para 1)It is introduced in the article how teachers and parents can encourage creativity in children.2) An important strategy for parents and teachers to follow (para. 2-3)A.

The approach: Combining the basics with the activities where students must use their imaginations.B. How to do so: By asking questions and meanwhile praising their ideas and new thoughts.C.

新编大学英语4课后答案
新编大学英语4课后答案【篇一:新编大学英语4课文翻译和答案(浙江大学)】p class=txt>unit 1享受幽默—什么东西令人开怀?1 听了一个有趣的故事会发笑、很开心,古今中外都一样。
这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。
那么,到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢?2 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人,因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。
这些学生文化差异很大,有来自拉丁美洲的,也有来自中国的。
我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。
这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。
3 为什么听我讲完一个笑话后,班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合,而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢?显然,有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。
而且,我们也发现有的人很善于讲笑话,而有的人要想说一点有趣的事却要费好大的劲。
我们都听人说过这样的话:“我喜欢笑话,但我讲不好,也总是记不住。
”有些人比别人更有幽默感,就像有些人更具有音乐、数学之类的才能一样。
一个真正风趣的人在任何场合都有笑话可讲,而且讲了一个笑话,就会从他记忆里引出一连串的笑话。
一个缺乏幽默感的人不可能成为一群人中最受欢迎的人。
一个真正有幽默感的人不仅受人喜爱,而且在任何聚会上也往往是人们注意的焦点。
这么说是有道理的。
4 甚至有些动物也具有幽默感。
我岳母从前经常来我们家,并能住上很长一段时间。
通常她不喜欢狗,但却很喜欢布利茨恩—我们养过的一条拉布拉多母猎犬。
而且,她们的这种喜欢是相互的。
布利茨恩在很小的时候就常常戏弄外祖母,当外祖母坐在起居室里她最喜欢的那张舒适的椅子上时,布利茨恩就故意把她卧室里的一只拖鞋叼到起居室,并在外祖母刚好够不到的地方蹦来跳去,一直逗到外祖母忍不住站起来去拿那只拖鞋。
外祖母从椅子上一起来,布利茨恩就迅速跳上那椅子,从它那闪亮的棕色眼睛里掠过一丝拉布拉多式的微笑,无疑是在说:“啊哈,你又上了我的当。
”5 典型的笑话或幽默故事由明显的三部分构成。
第一部分是铺垫(即背景),接下来是主干部分(即故事情节),随后便是妙语(即一个出人意料或令人惊讶的结尾)。

These isolated locations appeal to travelers who want to get close tO nature because they are tired of stressful city life.Other people who can afford neither the time nor the money for travel will stay at home,watching TV , going to the movies or concerts,or inviting some friends over for a party·Children like to go to the park,play computer games,and participate in sports.Young women like to go shopping while young men prefer to stay at home,watching TV and drinking tea.The popularity of pastimes varies according to age,sex,personality and financial situations. Whatever one’s pastime is。

这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。
那么,到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢?2 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人,因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。
这些学生文化差异很大,有来自拉丁美洲的,也有来自中国的。
我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。
这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。
3 为什么听我讲完一个笑话后,班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合,而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢?显然,有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。

布利茨恩在很小的时候就常常戏弄外祖母,当外祖母坐在起居室里她最喜欢的那张舒适的椅子上时,布利茨恩就故意把她卧室里的一只拖鞋叼到起居室,并在外祖母刚好够不到的地方蹦来跳去,一直逗到外祖母忍不住站起来去拿那只拖鞋。
外祖母从椅子上一起来,布利茨恩就迅速跳上那椅子,从它那闪亮的棕色眼睛里掠过一丝拉布拉多式的微笑,无疑是在说:“啊哈,你又上了我的当。

大学英语四课后习题答案浙江大学版教参4第2课Final
大学英语四课后习题答案浙江大学版教参4第2课FinalUnit 2 The Power of WordsUseful InformationAt any level of society, people who are good with words often have power or influence. The capacity to communicate is a valuable asset in any situation, whether you want to convince, console or encourage others. To be able to use the right words at the right time is both a skill and a gift.We often assume that to be a good communicator you have to be well educated when in fact people from all walks of life can communicate effectively. The most important aspect of the art of communicating is to know or understand one’s audience. Without this sensitivity, it is impossible to choose words that will have the desired impact on the person or people with whom we are speaking.One of the advantages of education is that it often enables one to change levels or registers of language more easily. When speaking to a person in a position of authority, we normally speak differently than we would if we were speaking to a close friend. Education increases our vocabulary and our capacity to switch from one type of language to another. In other words, we can choose to speak in plain and simple language or with complex and sophisticated sentences. Changing registers does not mean, of course, that the content of what we say becomes more or less profound. Just because a person speaks in simple terms (or even incorrectly) does not mean that they are not saying something important and profound. After all, one of the most famous sentences in the English language is extremely simple grammatically but complex from a philosophical point of view:“To be or not to be, that is the question.”In our personal lives, other people’s words can c hange our mood or even our attitudes. Words are an essential link between friends, relatives, colleagues and acquaintances. Using kind and thoughtful words to maintain and to improve our relationships is one way to contribute to the well-being of others. I n today’s fast-paced world, it is often easy to become so involved with one’s daily existence that one forgets to keep in touch with friends, to give words of encouragement to the people around us and to show that we care about them.The written word is even more powerful than the spoken word because it can be kept and treasured as a permanent reminder of a positive gesture on the part of someone we knew or still know. With the advent of e-mail, letter-writing has perhaps made a comeback. Providing one has access to a computer and a modem, keeping in touch with distant friends and colleagues has been made much easier.Part OnePREPARATION1. The Sentences That Affected Y ouSamples:1) —When I left home for college, my mother said to me with tears in her eyes: T ake goodcare of yourself.—I love you.—I admire you.—You are so beautiful.2) —You are stupid.—I don’t love you any more.—You disappointed me.3) —Go on.—I’m sure you’ll succeed.—Wherever you go, I’ll be right there supporting you.2. What Has Happened?Sample:Pat and Tom work in the same office and are good friends too. One day they were having dinner in a restaurant. They were talking about their colleague, Mary. Both of them thought that Mary was a disagreeable person, and not easy to get along with. They even mentioned that once Mary suspected her colleague had stolen her purse, but in fact she had left it in the bus. When they were talking, they didn’t realize that Mary happened to be there, too.Then, Mary stomped angrily out of the restaurant. At that moment, Pat realized that Mary had listened to their conversation and heard what they had been saying about her. Pat was very embarrassed. She put her hand to her mouth, wishing that they hadn’t said anything about her.3. Dialects and Mandarin (Putonghua)1) (open)2) (open)3) Sample answers:—The great majority of Chinese people should be able to speak Mandarin because dialects can be understood only by small groups of people. When we go to a different city, we have to speak Mandarin if we don’t know the local dialect. Otherwise, people won’t understand us and there’ll be a lot of trouble and inconvenience. Not only is Mandarin important for our work and life, it is also important for entertainment. If we don’t understand Mandarin, we won’t be able to enjoy TV programs,radio program s and movies, because they are usually in Mandarin.—To me, dialects are important in many ways. People speaking the same dialect feel close to each other. Usually they are from the same region and have more in common. When you talk about a particular ev ent or custom in your home town, very often you’ll find it hard to express yourself in Mandarin. At that time, you’ll find your dialect has more vividexpressions than Mandarin. Besides, dialects can help you recognize fellow townsmen or fellow provincials. You can identify them by the dialect they speak or the accent they have.Sometimes when you are in difficulty, your dialect can help you find people who’ll give you a hand because you speak the same dialect.Part TwoREADING-CENTERED ACTIVITIESIn-Class ReadingPre-ReadingSamples:1) —I usually send or receive letters to or from my parents once a month. I have manyfriends and classmates and we also write each other letters. I am very happy when Ireceive their letters, and can’t wait to read them. Sometimes I can’t help laughingwhile reading because they tell me a joke or describe something interesting in theletter. After I send a letter, I will wait anxiously for a reply. I hope they enjoy myletters too, for I want to make them feel good.—I don’t think people of my age often write letters. Instead, we send e-mails to each other almost every day. So the happiest time in a day is when I sit down and checkmy e mailbox after a day’s work. When I read emails, I feel as if I were talking withthe writers face-to-face. And at the same time, I can experience many thingsvicariously and share with them some happy moments in their lives.2) —Yes, I believe people need encouragement and praise. An encouraging word tosomeone who is down can lift them up and help them make it through the day. Iremember very well when I was in middle school there was a speech contest in myschool. I wanted to take part in it but I was afraid of making a fool of myself. Thenone of my cla ssmates said to me, “This is your c hance. Just have a try. What couldyou lose?” Her words encouraged me so much that I entered the contest and finallywon second prize.—There is no doubt that people need encouragement and praise. All of us would like to feel needed and admired. If we didn’t hear any words of encouragement or praise,how could we know that we were valued by people close to us? Besides, when I failto do something successfully, I’ll feel depressed. If someone can comfort or consoleme at t his moment, and give me encouragement, they’llprobably make a bigdifference in my life. On the other hand, if I can encourage or cheer my friend, I’llfeel good about myself. So encouragement actually benefits people on both sides.In-Class ReadingWords, Phrases and Grammatical Points1. column inch (l. 6)Column inch is a newspaper term. A page may have several columns. A column has a fixed width. Newspaper space is measured as columns wide times inches tall—column inches. For example, ads are charged per column inch. To determine the size a classified display ad, we multiply the number of columns wide by the number of inches in depth. For example, an ad that is 2 columns wide and that is 5 inches in depth would be 10 column inches.2. “make a habit of…” (l. 9)了除“make a habit of…”, “habit”的其它用法有:1)be in the habit of doing somethinge.g.I) I’m not in the habit of lying to my friends.II) Jeff was in the habit of taking a walk after dinner.2)get/fall in(to) /out of the habite.g. I) Since I stopped taking lesson s, I’ve got out of the habit of practicing my saxophone.II) He had fallen into the habit of having a coffee every time he passed the coffee machine.3)break the habit of doing somethinge.g. I) A new method was developed to help break the habit of smoking.II) In that context, will he break the habit of a lifetime andanswer two questions straight?3. a quick, encouraging word (l. 11)Here “word” means “a short statement, especially one that gives advice, information, or a warning”.e.g. I) A word to father s: don’t frighten away your daughter’s friends.II) A good word of advice to students: don’t speak before you think.4. …the paper was flooded with calls and letters… (l. 20)The expression “flood somebody/something with” means “deliver in great quantit ies for somebody/at something”.e.g. I) The office was flooded with complaints.II) He was flooded with joy when his first child was born.5. …have been known to turn around a day. (l. 18-19)More examples using the structure “have been + pas t participle + to do…”:e.g. I) He has been known to be very generous with his time.II) Dr. Smith has been asked several times to perform that operation.6. attach… to (l. 24-25)e.g. I) It is unwise to attach too much importance to the information.II) She attached a stamp to the envelope and mailed it.III) This institute is attached to the University of Toronto.7. owe… to…(l. 28)e.g. I) I owe my success to him.II) She owed her good health to her regular life.III) I owe it to the doctor that I am still alive.8. ever-ready (l. 28)“ever-”is a prefix meaning “always or continuously”. It isoften used with many adjectives and “ing” verb forms.e.g. I) The visit left an everlasting impression on me.II) The leaves of evergreens/evergreen trees are often shaped like needles.III) Perhaps the dread of cancer is ever-present.IV) The government was embarrassed by its ever-growing debt.V) The ever-changing colors of the sea have inspired many artists.课内阅读参考译文便笺的力量1 我当体育编辑,最早是为蒙比利埃(俄亥俄州)的《企业导报》工作,当时我很少收到体育迷的来信。

(para. 2-4)Supporting evidenceA. Teachers called on males in class far more than on female students. (para 2)i) Its consequence: This has a tremendous impact on the learning process.ii) The reason for this: Active classroom participants develop more positive attitudesand go on to higher achievement.iii) Two examples:a. In many of the former all-women’s colleges, the boys were taking over the class-room discussions and active participation by women students had diminished noticeably.b. A similar subordination of female to male students has also been observed in law and medical school classrooms in recent years.B. Teachers assigned boys and girls different tasks according to stereotyped gender roles. (para. 3)i) Its consequence: This prevented girls from participating as actively as boys in class.ii) An example: A teacher had the little boys perform the scientific experiment while the girls were given the task of putting the materials away. C. Gender-biased education is also reflected in the typical American teacher’assumption. (para 4)i) The assumption: Boys will do better in the hard, masculine subjects of math and science while girls are expected to have better verbal and reading skills.ii) Three examples:a. American boys do develop reading problems, while girls, who are superior to boys in math up to the age of nine, fall behind from then on.b. In Germany, all studies are considered masculine and it is girls who develop reading problems.c. In Japan, where early education appears to be nonsexist, both girls and boys do equally well in reading.(3) The educational bias begins at home. (para 5)A. Supporting evidence:i) Boy preschoolers were permitted to go away from home in a much wider area than girl preschoolers.ii) Boys were encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity and physical skills, while girls are filled with fears of the world outside the home and with the desire to be approved of for their goodness and obedience to rules.B. The consequence when these lessons carry over from the home to the classroom: Girls are generally observed to be more dependent on the teacher, more concerned with the form and neatness of their work than its content, and more anxious about being right in their answers than in being intellectually independent, analytical, or original.C. Conclusion: Through the educational process that occupies most of the child’s waking hours, society reinforces its established values and turns out eachsex in its traditional and expected mold.Vocabulary1. 1) genetic 2) assign 3) noticeably 4) approved 5) Bias 6) deprived7) constituted 8) participation 9) unintentional 10) postgraduate2.conscious- unconsciousencourage- discouragedirectly- indirectlysexist – nonsexistdependent- independentpositive – negativesuperior - inferiorbiased – fairlimited – unlimitedappropriately- inappropriately3. 1) C 2) D 3) A 4) E 5) B 6) C 7) F 8) B4. 1) turn out2) carry over3) calling on4) put away5) fallen behind6) take overunit4Reading Comprehension1. 1) Introduction(para 1)It is introduced in the article how teachers and parents can encouragecreativity in children.2) An important strategy for parents and teachers to follow (para. 2-3)A.
