现代大学英语精读4unit2翻译及课后答案

UNIT2历史学家们为什么意见不一大多数学生通常是通过一本厚厚的课本接触历史的,他们很快就被淹没在姓名、日期、时间和数据中。

然后学生的技能通过考试来检验,考试考的是他们记住了多少材料。

记得越多,分数就越高。

我们可以从中得出几条明显的结论:学习历史就是学习“史实”;作为历史专业的学生,知道的“史实”越多,你学得就越好。

专业的历史学家只不过是把大量的“事实”搜集在一起的人。

因此,当学生们发现历史学家们即使在研究同一事件时意见也有很大分歧的时候,他们常常感到困惑不解。

对于这种情况,学生们根据自己的常识作出的反应是,断定一位历史学家是正确的,而另一位是错误的。

而且,据此推测,错误的历史学家给出的“事实”是错误的。

然而,实际情况很少如此。

历史学家的论证通常很有道理,并且有说服力。

而且,“事实”——姓名、日期、事件和数据——常常是被证明是正确的。

此外,学生们还经常发现争论不休的历史学家对事实大致持相同意见;也就是说,他们使用大体相同的材料。

他们作出的结论不同,是因为他们看待过去的角度不同。

历史,本来已定就是记忆“史实”,现在变成了从众多解释中挑选一个令人满意的解释的事情。

历史的真相成为了个人偏好问题。

这种看法很难使人满意。

学生们肯定会想,对同一事件的两种完全不同的观点不可能同时是正确的;然而,他们没有能力在两者之间作出选择。

要了解历史学家们为什么意见不一致,学生们必须考虑一个他们或多或少认为是理所当然的问题。

他们必须问问自己,历史到底是什么。

从最广泛的意义上来说,历史指的是人类过去的总和。

比较狭义的概念是,历史是有记录的过去,即留下了某种记录的人类生活的一部分,比如民间故事、手工艺品或者有文字记载的文献。

最后,历史可以被定义为历史学家们书写的过去。

当然,这三种定义互相联系。

历史学家们的记述以过去人们的遗留物为根据;显然,他们不可能对所有的事情都了解,原因很简单,并不是每一件大小事件都被完整地记录下来了。

因此,历史学家充其量也只能接近历史。

大学英语精读第4册课文翻译及课后答案

大学英语精读第四册课文翻译Unit 1两个大学男孩 不清楚赚钱需要付出艰苦的劳动 被一份许诺轻松赚大钱的广告吸引了。

男孩们很快就明白 如果事情看起来好得不像真的 那多半确实不是真的。

轻轻松松赚大钱约翰•G•哈贝尔“你们该看看这个 ”我向我们的两个读大学的儿子建议道。

“你们若想避免因为老是向人讨钱而有失尊严的话 这兴许是一种办法。

”我将挂在我们门把手上的、装在一个塑料袋里的几本杂志拿给他们。

塑料袋上印着一条信息说 需要招聘人投递这样的袋子 这活儿既轻松又赚钱。

“轻轻松松赚大钱!” “我不在乎失不失尊严 ”大儿子回答说。

“我可以忍受 ”他的弟弟附和道。

“看到你们俩伸手讨钱讨惯了一点也不感到尴尬的样子 真使我痛心 ”我说。

孩子们说他们可以考虑考虑投递杂志的事。

我听了很高兴 便离城出差去了。

午夜时分 我已远离家门 在一家旅馆的房间里舒舒服服住了下来。

电话铃响了 是妻子打来的。

她想知道我这一天过得可好。

“好极了!”我兴高采烈地说。

“你过得怎么样?”我问道。

“棒极了!”她大声挖苦道。

“真棒!而且这还仅仅是个开始。

又一辆卡车刚在门前停下。

”“又一辆卡车?”“今晚第三辆了。

第一辆运来了四千份蒙哥马利-沃德百货公司的广告 第二辆运来四千份西尔斯-罗伯克百货公司的广告。

我不知道这一辆装的啥 但我肯定又是四千份什么的。

既然这事是你促成的 我想你或许想了解事情的进展。

”我之所以受到指责 事情原来是这样 由于发生了一起报业工人罢工 通常夹在星期日报纸里的广告插页 必须派人直接投送出去。

公司答应给我们的孩子六百美金 任务是将这些广告插页在星期天早晨之前投递到四千户人家去。

“不费吹灰之力!”我们上大学的大儿子嚷道。

“六百块!”他的弟弟应声道 “我们两个钟点就能干完!”“西尔斯和沃德的广告通常都是报纸那么大的四页 ”妻子告诉我说 “现在我们门廊上堆着三万二千页广告。

就在我们说话的当儿 两个大个子正各抱着一大捆广告走过来。

这么多广告 我们可怎么办?”“你让孩子们快干 ”我指示说。

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?

现代大学英语精读4unit2翻译及课后答案

现代大学英语精读4unit2翻译及课后答案

UNIT2历史学家们为什么意见不一大多数学生通常是通过一本厚厚的课本接触历史的,他们很快就被淹没在姓名、日期、时间和数据中。

然后学生的技能通过考试来检验,考试考的是他们记住了多少材料。

记得越多,分数就越高。

我们可以从中得出几条明显的结论:学习历史就是学习“史实”;作为历史专业的学生,知道的“史实”越多,你学得就越好。

专业的历史学家只不过是把大量的“事实”搜集在一起的人。

因此,当学生们发现历史学家们即使在研究同一事件时意见也有很大分歧的时候,他们常常感到困惑不解。

对于这种情况,学生们根据自己的常识作出的反应是,断定一位历史学家是正确的,而另一位是错误的。

而且,据此推测,错误的历史学家给出的“事实”是错误的。

然而,实际情况很少如此。

历史学家的论证通常很有道理,并且有说服力。

而且,“事实”——姓名、日期、事件和数据——常常是被证明是正确的。

此外,学生们还经常发现争论不休的历史学家对事实大致持相同意见;也就是说,他们使用大体相同的材料。

他们作出的结论不同,是因为他们看待过去的角度不同。

历史,本来已定就是记忆“史实”,现在变成了从众多解释中挑选一个令人满意的解释的事情。

历史的真相成为了个人偏好问题。

这种看法很难使人满意。

学生们肯定会想,对同一事件的两种完全不同的观点不可能同时是正确的;然而,他们没有能力在两者之间作出选择。

要了解历史学家们为什么意见不一致,学生们必须考虑一个他们或多或少认为是理所当然的问题。

他们必须问问自己,历史到底是什么。

从最广泛的意义上来说,历史指的是人类过去的总和。

比较狭义的概念是,历史是有记录的过去,即留下了某种记录的人类生活的一部分,比如民间故事、手工艺品或者有文字记载的文献。

最后,历史可以被定义为历史学家们书写的过去。

当然,这三种定义互相联系。

历史学家们的记述以过去人们的遗留物为根据;显然,他们不可能对所有的事情都了解,原因很简单,并不是每一件大小事件都被完整地记录下来了。

因此,历史学家充其量也只能接近历史。

Understand how grammar helps to create meaning in context.1) Observe these inverted sentences and learn why inversion is used.Inverted is used(1) with the introductory word here(2) fo rrhetorical purpose –-for emphrasis(3) after an adverbial of place(4) with the introductory word there (5) same as (2) (6) same as (2) (7) same as (2) (8) same as (2) (9) same as (4)(10) because the subject is too long while the verb too short (11) same as (3)(12) because the subject has a modifier and also for emphasis (13) same as (3), (10) and (12) (14) same as (12)Note: Inversion for rhetorical purposes chiefly occurs in works of literature. Most of the inverted sentences in this text are highly rhetorical and a little old-fashioned. This type of inversion should avoidedin everyday speech and informal writing.2) Observe the relative clauses in these sentences and find out in whatway theyare special. The relative clauses in the 10 sentences fall into twotypes:a. Those that modify pronouns insteadof nouns. In such relative clauses that, not which, isused for things, and when it functions as the object of the clause, it is often omitted. But when it is the subject, it cannot be left out. (This isalso true when the relative clause modifies a noun.) all the sentences except (4) belong to this type.b. Those that modify nouns with a superlative adjective. The rules forsuch clauses are thesame as those mentioned in a.2. Combine each pair of the sentences as shown in the example.1) Xiao Fang is the smartest girl I’ve ever known.2) This is the most fantastic story I’ve ever heard.3) 15,000 yuan is the lowest price we can offer for this laptop. 4) Pearl Harbor is the best American film I’ve seen for quite a while. 5) Lin is the most easy-going professor I’ve ever met. 6) The storm last night was theworst I can remember.7) I think Dialogue is the most thought-provoking takk show CCTV offers. 8)I think Mr. Cui is the wittiest talk show host you can find at the moment.9) In the 1930s, nursing and teaching were the best jobs capable womencould dream of. 10) These are the most delious noodles we’ve had since a long time ago.3. Complete the sentences by translating the Chinese in the brackets into English, using“all/everything,etc + a relative clause”. 1) The doctors did all they could2) I don’t always agree with everyting he says 3) anything they ask for4) All he got from a week of hard work 5) All that is written in his wife’s letter 6) Nothing the doctors said 7) anything you suggest8) Something he read in a popular magazine 9) All that can be done is done 10) anything the artist painted11) something that never existed before 4. Learn how to use modals.1) Find out what notion eachof the modals expresses.(1) possibility (2) belief (3) negative possibility(4) ability (7) negative possibility(5) possibility, ability (8 possibility)(6) possibility(9) possibility, possible necessity(10) necessity (11) subjective certainty (12) subject certainty (13) necessity (because of importance)2) Put in the blanks proper modals listed below.(1) can ’t (ability) (2) must (obligation) (3) mustn ’t (obl igation)(4) must (obligation, had to (necessity)(5) cannot (possibility), can (possibility)(6) May (permission, can’t (permission, might (possibility) (7) can (possibility, must (obligation)(8) can/may (possibility, must (subject certainty)(9) might (possibility), hav to (necessity), can’t (possibility) (10) could (possibility), could (possibility), might (possibility) (11) must (necessity), can’t (possibility), have to (necessity)Note: According to the Oxford Advanced Learner ’s Dictionary, the 2000 edition, there isn ’t much difference between “must ” and “have to” inAmerican Englsih.
