When you were sweating and out of breath, did you ever wish that you could only stop talking a P.E. class in college? However, taking P.E. courses can be advantageous to all college students.First, taking P.E. classes helps students learn valuable communication and teamwork skills. There are many activities that require students to communicate and interact with each other when they are having a P.E. classes. For example, when one group completes with the other in playing basketball, group cooperation is extremely important in order to win. Effective teamwork usually requires good communication skills.Another advantages is that taking P.E. classes enables students to more effectively handle their heavy coursework. Not infrequently, students sleep in class and miss important information. Notconcentrating in class may be caused by insufficient sleep and no exercise. Through taking P.E. courses, students build up their health. Only when students stay healthy can they learn better.To sum up, taking a P.E. course at college can benefit students in developing useful social skills as well as better coping skills for their stress at school. Therefore, P.E. classes bring students advantages both physically and academically.Translation9慕课是一种网络课程,它只在通过网络实现广泛参与和开放接入。

In this long evolutionary process, Chinese characters have not only played an important role in exchanging ideas and transmitting culture but also developed into a unique art form. Calligraphic works well reflect calligraphers, personal feelings, knowledge, self-cultivation, personality, and so forth, t hus there is an expression that “seeing the calligrapher's handwriting is like seeing the person”.

Reference answers1)• I think it is a good idea for them to make these life changes.The meaning of life is to make life meaningful. Anita and Jasmin obviously felt bored with what they did every day, and couldn't find contentment, fulfillment and pleasure in their life, so it was the right time for them to make a change. They needed to try something different, something that can bring them new experience, give thema sense of achievement, and revive their passion for life. Eventhough they are in their 30s, it's never too late for them to pursue what they really want to do in their life. The pursuit of theirdreams pushes them forward and inspires them to live life to the fullest.• I think it is too risky for them to make these life changes at such an age, especially for Anita Jacobs who sold her house and gave up her job just to go traveling. I just doubt whether she will be able to make a living when she finishes traveling. It's not unusual for many people to feel bored about doing the same job every day.But the point is that this job pays enough so that we can make a living, and we can have some money put away for retirement after paying the bills and putting food in our mouths. So when the going gets tough, just remember times when we have a peaceful life at home after an eight-hour day.2) A typical example is Bill Gates, the former chief executive ofMicrosoft, the world's largest personal-computer software company.Bill Gates enrolled at Harvard University in the fall of 1973, originally thinking of a career in law. He did well there, but he didn't find it interesting. He spent many long nights in front of the school's computer and the next day was asleep in class. When the MITS Altair 8800 based on the Intel 8080 CPU was released in 1974, he and his friend Paul Allen saw this as a great opportunity to start their own computer software company. So Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard to start a business to write software for computers.It was a hard decision but it turned out to be the right choice. Viewing1.Reference answers1)I think the qualities a successful Formula One driver must haveinclude physical strength and proficiency, mental alertness, quick reaction, endurance, consistency, courage, competitiveness, and appreciation for adventure and speed.2)Lewis Hamilton is ambitious and he always wants to win. Now he haswon many competitions and becomes a celebrity with fame and glory, so his life is a dream come true.2.1)The sponsors love the face, the attitude, the style and the talentthat Lewis Hamilton has.2)Because it has got a lot of speed in it.3)His ambition as a teenager was to get to Formula One, because heenjoyed the speed, he liked to be with all the big guys, and he would like to be making lots of money.4)Formula Three is fast, dangerous, and full of young, ambitiousdrivers. The best of the drivers are seen by Formula One managers.3.1) speed 2) survive 3) October 4) richest4.1) seven 2) four 3) everything5.Reference answers1) People say Lewis Hamilton is a "hero", because he is an incredibly talented driver who has made remarkable achievements in his career. In his first season in Formula One, he set numerous records, and was just one point behind the champion in the 2007 Formula One Championship. Then he won the World Championship the following season.I think Lewis Hamilton is a sporting hero because of the excitementand joy that his courageous performances in 2007 and 2008 have brought to his countless fans. He showed us that in any case we should never give up, even if the conditions are not favorable.2) The sporting hero I admire most is Lang Ping, a former player ofChinese Women's Volleyball Team, nicknamed "Iron Hammer". She is a beloved sporting hero and one of the most respected people in modern Chinese sports history mainly because of her central role in the success of the Chinese Women's Volleyball Team in the 1980s, including the Gold Medal at the 1984 Olympics, World Championship crown in 1982 and World Cup titles in 1981 and 1985.Speaking for communicationRole-play1.1) White House2) tomorrow afternoon3) a space flight / a flight into space4) next week5) her husband6) 807) three or four8) organize9) this weekend10) restaurant service11) French12) Paris13) directions14) book2. 1R 2 R 3O 4 R 5O 6OGroup discussion1.

Whatever they are, dreams give us a purpose in life and a meaning to live, and allow us to fight for what we believe in. However, we should not let our dreams control our life and become a slave to them. In fact there are other things we should work for apart from our own dreams, such as our family and our friends. So don't be afraid to let go our dreams if we have to.•The second quote tells us that we should always strive to attain our dreams in life. Dreams push us to move forward, to struggle, to strive all the time. Without dreams, life is a life without hope; without dreams, we are as lost as a bird which has lost the gift of flight. So follow our dreams and let our ambition fuel us to surpass our limits. Never quit and always think of different ways to win.3.Further practice in listeningShort conversationsIB 2 B 3 C 4 D 5 DLong conversation1A 2 B 3 B 4 DPassage 11 B 2D 3 A 4 CPassage 21)commentators2)exaggerated3)focus on4)lead an active life5)laid the foundation6)annual7) a series8)advocating9)abolish10)influentialKey to U5Listening to the worldSharing•Reference answers: The podcast is mainly about whether people enjoy city life, the good things about living in a city and the main problems in cities.•1) cities 2) mix of people 3) peace and quiet•1).

新视野英语第三版2作文英文回答:In the tapestry of life, we encounter myriad opportunities that have the potential to shape our destinies. Some stand out as vibrant threads, while others blend seamlessly into the background, leaving a subtle yet indelible mark on our being. It is in the quiet moments, when the clamor of the world subsides, that we find the courage to embrace our passions and pursue the paths that truly resonate with our souls.Education, in its purest form, is not merely the acquisition of knowledge but a transformative journey that empowers us to transcend our limitations. It is the key that unlocks the door to enlightenment, illuminating the path ahead and inspiring us to reach for the stars. It is in the hallowed halls of learning that we forge bonds with like-minded individuals, united by a common thirst for knowledge and a desire to make a meaningful contribution tosociety.As we navigate the complexities of life, it is inevitable that we will encounter setbacks and disappointments. However, it is in these moments that our resilience is tested and our true character is revealed. The ability to pick ourselves up and persevere, even when faced with adversity, is a testament to our indomitable spirit. By embracing the challenges that come our way, we not only overcome them but also emerge stronger and wiser.In the grand scheme of things, our lives are but fleeting moments in the vast expanse of time. It is up to us to make the most of every precious day, to live with intention and purpose. Let us not be content to simply exist but to actively pursue our passions, connect with others, and make a positive impact on the world around us. For in the end, it is not the material possessions we accumulate or the accolades we receive that truly matter, but the legacy we leave behind – a legacy of love, kindness, and unwavering determination.中文回答:在人生的画卷中,我们邂逅了无数的机会,它们潜藏着塑造我们命运的可能。

Reference answers1)• I think it is a good idea for them to make these life changes. The meaning oflife is to make life meaningful. Anita and Jasmin obviously felt bored with what they did every day, and couldn't find contentment, fulfillment and pleasure in their life, so it was the right time for them to make a change. They needed to try something different, something that can bring them new experience, give them a sense of achievement, and revive their passion for life.Even though they are in their 30s, it's never too late for them to pursue what they really want to do in their life. The pursuit of their dreams pushes them forward and inspires them to live life to the fullest.• I think it is too risky for them to make these life changes at such an age, especially for Anita Jacobs who sold her house and gave up her job just to go traveling. I just doubt whether she will be able to make a living when she finishes traveling. It's not unusual for many people to feel bored aboutdoing the same job every day. But the point is that this job pays enough so that we can make a living, and we can have some money put away for retirement after paying the bills and putting food in our mouths. So when the going gets tough, just remember times when we have a peaceful life at home after an eight-hour day.2) A typical example is Bill Gates, the former chief executive of Microsoft, theworld's largest personal-computer software company. Bill Gates enrolled at Harvard University in the fall of 1973, originally thinking of a career in law.He did well there, but he didn't find it interesting. He spent many long nights in front of the school's computer and the next day was asleep in class. When the MITS Altair 8800 based on the Intel 8080 CPU was released in 1974, he and his friend Paul Allen saw this as a great opportunity to start their own computer software company. So Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard to start a business to write software for computers. It was a hard decision but it turnedout to be the right choice.Viewing1.Reference answers1)I think the qualities a successful Formula One driver must have includephysical strength and proficiency, mental alertness, quick reaction, endurance, consistency, courage, competitiveness, and appreciation for adventure and speed.2)Lewis Hamilton is ambitious and he always wants to win.

Never quit and always think of different ways to win.3.Further practice in listeningShort conversationsIB 2 B 3 C 4 D 5 DLong conversation1A 2 B 3 B 4 DPassage 11 B 2D 3 A 4 CPassage 21)commentators2)exaggerated3)focus on4)lead an active life5)laid the foundation6)annual7) a series8)advocating9)abolish10)influentialKey to U5Listening to the worldSharing•Reference answers: The podcast is mainly about whether people enjoy city life, the good things about living in a city and the main problems in cities.•1) cities 2) mix of people 3) peace and quiet•1).

Reference answers1)? I think it is a good idea for them to make these life changes.The meaning of life is to make life meaningful. Anita and Jasmin obviously felt bored with what they did every day, andcouldn't find contentment, fulfillment and pleasure in their life, so it was the right time for them to make a change. They needed to try something different, something that can bring them new experience, give thema sense of achievement, and revive their passion for life. Eventhough they are in their 30s, it's never too late for them to pursue what they really want to do in their life. The pursuit of their dreams pushes them forward and inspires them to live life to the fullest.I think it is too risky for them to make these life changes at such an age, especially for Anita Jacobs who sold her house and gave up her job just to go traveling. I just doubt whether she will be able to make a living when she finishes traveling. It's not unusual for many people to feel bored about doing the same job every day.But the point is that this job pays enough so that we can make a living, and we can have some money put away for retirement afterpaying the bills and putting food in our mouths. So when the going gets tough, just remember times when we have a peaceful life at home after an eight-hour day.2) A typical example is Bill Gates, the former chief executive ofMicrosoft, the world's largest personal-computer software company.Bill Gates enrolled at Harvard University in the fall of 1973, originally thinking of a career in law. He did well there, but he didn't find it interesting. He spent many long nights in front of the school's computer and the next day was asleep in class. When the MITS Altair 8800 based on the Intel 8080 CPU was released in 1974, he and his friend Paul Allen saw this as a great opportunity to start their own computer software company. So Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard to start a business to write software for computers.It was a hard decision but it turned out to be the right choice. Viewing1.Reference answers1)I think the qualities a successful Formula One driver must haveinclude physical strength and proficiency, mental alertness, quick reaction, endurance, consistency, courage, competitiveness, and appreciation for adventure and speed.2)Lewis Hamilton is ambitious and he always wants to win.

The best of the drivers are seen by Formula One managers.3.1) speed 2) survive 3) October 4) richest4.1) seven 2) four 3) everything5.Reference answers1) People say Lewis Hamilton is a "hero", because he is an incrediblytalented driver who has made remarkable achievements in his career.In his first season in Formula One, he set numerous records, and was just one point behind the champion in the 2007 Formula One Championship.Then he won the World Championship the following season.I think Lewis Hamilton is a sporting hero because of the excitementand joy that his courageous performances in 2007 and 2008 have brought to his countless fans. He showed us that in any case we should never give up, even if the conditions are not favorable.2) The sporting hero I admire most is Lang Ping, a former player ofChinese Women's Volleyball Team, nicknamed "Iron Hammer". She is a beloved sporting hero and one of the most respected people in modern Chinese sports history mainly because of her central role in the success of the Chinese Women's Volleyball Team in the 1980s, including the Gold Medal at the 1984 Olympics, World Championship crown in 1982 and World Cup titles in 1981 and 1985.Speaking for communicationRole-play1.1) White House2) tomorrow afternoon3) a space flight / a flight into space4) next week5) her husband6) 807) three or four8) organize9) this weekend10) restaurant service11) French12) Paris13) directions14) book2. 1R 2 R 3O 4 R 5O 6OGroup discussion1.

He also started to write songs. He played all the time.5)At 28 he realized that apart from music he had his familyand friends. He still played but only for fun.2.Reference answersWe all have dreams in our life. These dreams may be things we want to accomplish, places we want to go, or feats we must attempt. Whatever they are, dreams give us a purpose in life and a meaning to live, and allow us to fight for what we believe in. However, we should not let our dreams control our life and become a slave to them. In fact there are other things we should work for apart from our own dreams, such as our family and our friends. So don't be afraid to let go our dreams if we have to. The second quote tells us that we should always strive to attain our dreams in life. Dreams push us to move forward, to struggle, to strive all the time. Without dreams, life is a life without hope; without dreams, we are as lost as a bird which has lost the gift of flight. So follow our dreams and let our ambition fuel us to surpass our limits. Never quit and always think of different ways to win.3.Further practice in listeningShort conversationsIB 2 B 3 C 4 D 5 DLong conversation1A 2 B 3 B 4 DPassage 11 B 2D 3 A 4 CPassage 21)commentators2)exaggerated3)focus on4)lead an active life5)laid the foundation6)annual7) a series8)advocating9)abolish10)influentialKey to U5Listening to the worldSharingReference answers: The podcast is mainly about whether people enjoy city life, the good things about living in a city and the main problems in cities.1) cities 2) mix of people 3) peace and quiet1).

Key to Exercises of Unit 2Understanding the text1 Because English or history majors are considered less competitive when the job market is shrinking, and they have to study something that can help them more easily locate their future jobs.2 Because as the tuition is climbing higher and higher, many students have run away from studying the humanities and toward “hard” skills that they think will lead to employment.3 Since more students are now taking job-oriented courses, libraries, where students of liberal arts used to study, are getting less popular than before; in contrast, labs are getting more eye-catching because students of science and engineering do experiments and research there.4 Because this inner drive that can be either constructive or destructive is so mysterious and powerful that it has attracted many people to speculate on it. From ancient times, these men and women developed artistic “languages” in the form of story, music, myth, painting, architecture, sculpture, landscape and traditions, which form the very foundation of civilization.5 Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write, makes you familiar with the language of emotion and the creative process, and, more importantly, provides you with a wide scope of possibilities that are open to you.6 Because in modern life, an ideal capacity for establishing one’s career is to have both technical knowledge and inner insight, not just one without the other.7 “Well-rounded human beings” are those who have insight and understand the passions, hopes and dreams common to all humanity.8 Since many people who once studied the humanities became famous in their career, the author implies that if students spend more time studying the humanities, they could surely become successful in the future as well.Critical thinking1 ?
