He worked himself to death, finally and precisely, at 3:00 A.M. Sunday morning.他终于累死了,The obituary didn’t say that, of course. It said that he died of a coronary thrombosis----I think that was it----but everyone among his friends and acquaintances knew it instantly. He was a perfect Type A, a workaholic, a classic, they said to each other and shook their heads----and thought for five or ten minutes about the way they lived.讣告并没有这么说.讣告说他死于冠桩血栓---应该就是这种病吧----但他所有的朋友和熟人全都立刻就知道他其实是累死的.他是典型的A型血人,典型的工作狂,所谓的精英,他的朋友们一边摇头一边交谈,花上五到十秒钟反省自己的生活方式.This man who worked himself to death finally and precisely at 3:00 A.M. Sunday morning---on his day off---was fifty one years old and a vice-president. He was, however, one of six vice-presidents, and one of three who might conceivably---if the president died or retired soon enough---have moved to the top spot. Phil knew that.那累死在周日凌晨三点---这天是他的假期---的死者今年51岁, 是一家公司的副总裁. 不过,那家公司有六个副总,他是其中三名有望升任总裁----如果老总去世或是及时退休的话--的副总之一, 他很有希望爬到颠峰, 非尔明白这一点.He worked six days a week, five of them until eight or nine at night, during a time when his own company had begun the four-day week for everyone but the executives. He worked like the Important People. He had no outside “extracurricular interests,” unless, of course, you think about a monthly golf game that way. To Phil, it was work. He always ate egg salad sandwiches at his desk. He was, of course, overweight, by 20 or 25 pounds. He thought it was okay, though, because he didn’t smoke.他每周工作六天, 其中五天一直到晚上八点或九点. 这时,公司已开始实行四工作日制, 当然,这不包括行政人员. 非尔和每一个所谓的”重要人物”一样, 没有任何业余爱好, 当然了,每月打一次高尔夫除外.但对非尔来说, 这也是工作.非尔总是坐在办公桌前啃鸡蛋沙拉. 当然了,他体重超标,大概超重20或25磅. 不过非尔觉得那没关系, 因为他从不吸烟.On Saturdays, Phil wore a sports jacket to the office instead of a suit,because it was the weekend.周六时,非尔会把西装换成运动装,因为周末到了.He had a lot of people working for him, maybe sixty, and most of them liked him most of the time. Three of them will be seriously considered for his job. The obituary didn’t mention that.非尔有一大群下属为他工作,估计有六十人吧,大部分的人在大部分的时候都很喜欢他们的上司. 其中三人将角逐非尔现在的位置.讣告也没有提到这一点.But it did list his “survivors” quite accurately. He is survived by his wife, Helen, forty-eight years old, a good woman of no particular marketable skills, who worked in an office before marrying and mothering. She had, according to her daughter, given up to compete with his work years ago, when the children were small. A company friend said, “I know how much you will miss him.” And she answered, “I already have.”不过,讣告明确地提到了他的”未忘人”. 非尔撇下了他的妻子海伦. 她是个好女人, 今年四十八岁, 没有多少经商头脑. 在做妻子和母亲之前,她一直在办公室做一名小职员. 他们的女儿说,母亲多年前就放弃了同父亲的工作竞争, 在孩子们都还很小的时候. 公司一个朋友安慰海伦道:” 我知道你会非常非常想念他.” 海伦答道:” 我已经想念了好多好多年.”“Missing him all these years,” she must have given up part of herself which had cared too much for the man. She would be “wel l taken care of.”“这么多年来,我每天都在想他”, 海伦许会因为过分思念丈夫而失落了自我吧. 她将得到”最好的照料”.His “dearly beloved” eldest of the “dearly beloved” children is a bard-working executive in a manufacturing firm down South. In the day and a half before the funeral, he went around the neighborhood researching his father, asking the neighbors what he was like. They were embarrassed.他”最最亲爱”的长子是南部一家工厂的行政人员, 他同父亲一样卖力地工作.在葬礼的前1.5天, 他走访了很多邻居想要找回他的父亲, 他向邻居们询问父亲的情况. 邻居们感到很尴尬,因为他们对他的父亲几乎一无所知.His second child is a girl, who is twenty-four and newly married. She lives near her mother and they are close, but whenever she was alone with her father, in a car driving somewhere, they had nothing to say to each other.老二是女儿, 今年二十四岁, 最近刚结婚. 她和母亲住得很近,她们亲密无间, 但每每她与父亲独处, 比如坐车去某个地方时, 他们从来都无话可说.The youngest is twenty, a boy, a high-school graduate who has spent the last couple of years, like a lot of his friends, doing enough odd jobs to stay in grass and food. He was the one who tried to grab at his father, and tried to mean enough to him to keep the man at home. He was his father’s favorite. Over the last two years, Phil stayed up nights worrying about the boy.最小的儿子今年二十岁, 高中毕业生, 和他的朋友们一样靠着零零总总的工作赚钱来换取毒品.他确曾努力地想要留住他的父亲, 他确曾尝试过让父亲觉得自己很重要,重要到足以使父亲留在家里. 他是非尔最喜欢的孩子,在过去的两年里, 非尔常常彻夜难眠,为他担心.The boy once sa id, “My father and I only board here.”男孩曾经宣称, “我和爸爸只是寄居在这!”At the funeral, the sixty-year-old company president told the forty-eight-year-old widow that the fifty-one-year-old deceased had meant much to the company and would be missed and would be hard to replace. The widow didn’t look him in the eye. She was afraid he would read her bitterness and ,after all, she would need him to straighten out the finances-the stock options and all that.葬礼上, 六十一岁的公司总裁安慰四十八岁的寡妇说, 那五十一的过世者对公司多么重要, 大家会多么想念他, 找到一个接替他的人将多么困难. 可怜的女人不敢抬头看他, 她怕他看出她是多么地痛苦. 毕竟, 她需要他帮她理清所有财产问题-优先控股权以及诸如此类的事情.Phil was overweight and nervous and worked too hard. If he wasn’t at the office, he was worried about it. Phil was a Type A, a heart-attack natural. You could have picked him out in a minute from a lineup.非尔超重, 神经质, 工作得太玩命. 即使他不在办公室, 他也总是想着公司的事情. 非尔是典型的A型血, 心脏病易患群体. 你花一分钟就能从人潮中轻易地认出他.So when he finally worked himself to death, at precisely 3:00 A.M. Sunday morning, no one was really surprised.所以当他终于在周日凌晨三点累死时, 并没有谁真正大吃一惊.By 5:00 P.M. the afternoon of the funeral, the company president had begun, discreetly of course, with care and taste, to make inquiries about his replacement, one of the three man. He asked around:” who ‘s been working the hardest?”葬礼当天下午,五点后, 公司总裁开始慎重, 仔细, 挑剔地考虑非尔的接班人, 他问那三个职员, “你们谁工作最最卖力呢?”。

新世纪大学英语综合教程2课文翻译及课后答案完整版

新世纪大学英语综合教程2课文翻译及课后答案完整版新世纪大学英语综合教程2Unit 1 Living in HarmonyText A “我原谅你”1并非只有婚姻关系才需要宽恕。

我们与子女、朋友、同事、邻居，甚至陌生人相处时同样需要宽恕。

事实上，没有宽恕的氧气。

任何人际关系都无从维系。

宽恕并不是脾气好的人们才拥有的特质，它是所有关系的必要条件，也是自己身心健康不可缺少的。

、2有些人可能认为自己受伤太深、次数太多，无法宽恕、可耐人寻味的是，恰恰是被伤得最深的人，才真正需要宽恕别人。

原因很简单：仇恨就像癌症。

会毁掉宿主。

如果不尽快铲除。

它就会生根发芽，是那些执意仇恨无法释怀的人受伤甚至死亡。

3因为事实是。

除非我们能宽恕他人，否则就永远无法恢复。

伤口会继续溃烂，永不愈合。

中国有句古谚，“复仇者必自绝”4对有些人来说。

宽恕他人似乎是不可能的，因为他们根本不知从何做起，首先你要接受一个非常重要的事实：宽恕他人并不是件容易的事。

事实上，对于我们大多数人来说。

这也许是最难做到的。

5被伤害的是我们，却还要宽恕他人，这似乎毫无公平可言。

然而这正是宽恕的关键所在。

6“宽恕并忘记”，这句俗话谁都会脱口而出，但实际上既简单又肤浅。

一则这是绝对不可能的，二则它完全偏离了宽恕的真正含义。

生活中最需要宽恕的事正是那些无法忘记的事。

我们不应把这些事掩饰起来，而需记住它们，并有意不因此对做过这些事的人怀有成见，然后继续生活。

7这就是为什么有的时候会感到：宽恕别人，一开始会相对容易些，难的是每次你看到那个人，与他谈话，甚至只是想起他之后如何控制自己的感情。

真正的宽恕不是一劳永逸之举，而是持久的情感面对。

8等待越久，宽恕就越难。

实际上，时间不会愈合伤口，只会让愤懑和仇恨更长时间地吞噬你的内心。

如果要等待“适当的时候”，你也许永远都找不到机会。

9开始运用宽恕的艺术之前，你先要问自己这样一个问题：我们中有多少人在特定的场合下是完全无辜的呢？10几年前，我和妻子买了一件便宜家具。

How important is English in Yi Ling’s opinion?English gives her more access to knowledge and job opportunities.2. What type of career is Yi Ling thinking of?To be a businessman, an engineer, or a scientist.Direction: Listen to the dialogue again and check your understanding.ScriptJohn: Do you think English is very important to you, Yi Ling?Yi Ling: Definitely!John: In what way?Yi Ling: The biggest thing is that it gives me more access to knowledge. So many materials and resources are in English these days.John: Tell me more about it?Yi Ling: With English we can use more computer software, get more information onthe Internet, enjoy foreign movies and TV shows. You see, it makes a big difference. John: What about job opportunities? Can you get a better career if you are good at English here in China?Yi Ling: Definitely.

Authority-oriented learners : Having teachers explain everything and writing everything down in the notebook.Concrete learners: Playing games, looking at pictures and talking in pairs, etc. ScriptAll right, class. Today we're going to be looking at different language learning styles. You may be surprised to find that there are different ways of going about learning languages, none of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learner "types" -- the communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native speakers. At home, they 'like to learn by watching TV and videos. They like to learn new words by hearing them. In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to learn by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, by talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes at home and school. Now, authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down in their notebook, and they like to have a textbook. They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we have analytical learners. These learners like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books, and they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mistakes. Now, of course, it's unusual for a person to be exclusively one "type" rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What type of learner do you think you are?Step IV Discussion: What are the effective ways of learning a foreign language. Tips:+ keen interest+ confidence+ aggressiveness in study+ strong motive to communicate and express self-feeling+ participation in class-teaching+ trial and error procedure+ unique style of self-studyReferences:1.

Part Ⅲ(para.4) -----The uselessness of teaching method based on the behaviorist theory.Part Ⅳ (para.5-6)-----The useful way of learning a language.Step III. Scan the text and detect the detail information of the text.1) Part ITrue or False1. In order to catch the attention of potential learners, advertisements usually exaggerate the fast pace and great ease of learning English. T2. To be able to read the original works by great writers can be a motivation for people to learn the language of those great writers. T3. People don’t believe what advertisements say about language learning at all. F4. Each individual teacher may have his or her unique way of teaching a language. T Sentence rearrangement1. No doubt this is true to a certain extent, but it is not very helpful to students.2. But it is difficult for anyone to explain in simple language why one method is better than another, and it is no use pretending that anyone has discovered a perfect way of teaching English in every possible situation.3. It is natural for students to be attracted to methods that will teach them as quickly and efficiently and cheaply as possible.4. Some experts even argue that there are as many good methods of teaching a language as there are good teachers, because every teacher is an individual with his own personality.Key: 3-2-4-1Questions and answerQ 1 What do advertisements for English learning always claim?It is easy to learn English; it doesn’t take much time; it doesn’t take much effort.Q 2 Why do those advertisements also refer to famous writers like William Shakespeare or Charles Dickens?Both they were great writers and are considered ad great masters of the English language. The advertisers intend to use the two British writers to encourage students to join them in learning English so that they will be able to enjoy works by these great writers in the original.Q 3 Wh at is the writer’s response to such advertisements?It’s impossible to learn English well in a short time; many people must believe these ads.SkimmingQ 4 Does the author feel satisfied with the fact that every teacher has his or her own way of teaching English?No. The author recognizes the fact but does not feel happy about it because he thinks simply pointing out the fact does not help students much.If it were as easy to learn English as they say, I would have to look for another job, because very few qualified teachers would be needed.Q 5 What is the author’s profession?He must be an English teacher whose job is to train qualified English teachers.Q 6 What is meant by “every teacher is an individual with his own personality”?It means that different teachers have different personalities and, therefore, a teacher may have his or her own way of teaching English.Q 7 If you all feel that your teacher’s way of teaching is good and acceptable, does it mean that everyone in your class can learn English well enough?No. The reason is simple. Each student is an individual with his or her own personality. That is why the teach should attend to / satisfy / meet the individual needs of his or her students.No doubt this is true to a certain extent, but it is not very helpful to students.Q 8 What can we learn from the expression “This is true to a certain extent, but …”? We can see the author doesn’t totally agree with the previous statement.Q 9 Then, what, in the author’s opinion, is helpful to students?Students should have some good methods in learning English.2) Part IITrue or falseThe only way to learn a language well is to go and live in a country where it is spoken. FQuestions and answerQ 1 What are the two extremes concerning the beliefs of language learning?On one hand, some believe that the only way to learn a foreign language is to spend a great deal of time in the target country; on the other hand, some learners claim that they can master a foreign language just by self-study with only the help ofdictionaries.Q 2 Could you give some examples to show that “it is wrong to assume that each word in English has a precise equivalent in another language and vice versa”?One example is that the English word “aunt”may refer to 姑母，姨母，舅母，婶母，伯母，etc. Another case in point is that in Chinese we have “mantou”(馒头）which has no precise equivalent in English, though we can paraphrase it as “steamed bread”.3) Part IIITrue or falseLearning a language is just like how a parrot imitates a human being. FQuestions and answerWhat would teachers who believe in behaviorist psychology encourage students to do in the language learning context? Behaviorists believe that language learning is a kind of habit formation and they assume that people learn things very much like parrots and chimpanzees. So teacherswho believe in behaviorist psychology would ask students to repeat phrases and do mechanical exercises by imitation.4) (Part IV)Questions and answerQ 1 What is the author’s opinion about lea rning a new language?The author believes that no one can learn a new language well enough unless he or she is interested in it. He also thinks that the way of learning to speak and write in another language is probably similar to the way of learning one’s mother tongue.Q 2 What does the writer emphasize towards the end of this essay?He emphasizes the importance of group work in learning a new language.Q 3 Why does the writer repeat the word “real” in the last sentence?He wants to emphasize the idea th at language learning should be based on “real situations” in “real life” and the language we learn should be “real language”.5)Summary of the textDirection: Complete the following passage with words chosen from this unit. The initial letter of each is given. (Page 28) Step IV.

Write a letter of encouragement(of about 150 words) to one of your high school friends who failed in the college entrance examination. Tellhim or her about your new understanding of the need to remain optimistic.2) The writers of the two texts in this unit convey to us the message that we need to look at the positive side ofanything that comes to us and that we need to take an optimistic and positive attitude toward life. Write anessay (of about 150 words) to share your ideas with your classmates. The following hints may be of somehelp:a. What is meant by “thinking positively”?b.

I've just read anarticle about how pessimistic and optimistic thoughts can affect our behaviour and I'm now sending you acopy, hoping that it will help you step out of the shadows.Naturally, failing the college entrance examination can be very depressing, yet if you continue to dwell onthe past, you will never be able to pick yourself up and focus on what is more important for now and the future.Life is full of trials and anyone may suffer setbacks. We must take an optimistic attitude towards the things wehave to deal with. Optimism and positive thinking are powerful forces. Good things do come true if we picturethem often. Please do have confidence in your potential. Just work hard and prepare for another chance. You will make it.Yours,Janet(152 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:Thinking positively means allowing your mind to be filled with optimistic feelings, and always hoping forthe best though still aware of the difficulties that might be involved.The human mind is powerful; thoughts of optimism and pessimism can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Though it might seem impossible to some, positive thinking and success actually have acause-and-resultrelationship. The reason is that a person with positive thinking will always broadcast goodwill and confidenceand that kind of radiating attitude will take a hold on everybody.Gradually, people's attitude will shift towards more trust and respect. This not only opens up moreopportunities for the individual, but it also feeds back emotionally, and the cycle continues.Though the shaping of a positive or negative personality often happens subconsciously, it is possible toisit whether situations, favourable visualizing try can person A consciously. processes such control remembering a contest won as a child or imagining getting that job offer so long sought after.

She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice,because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the jobopportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect herskills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chancecame: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners wouldbe given ascholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through herfingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certainthat herdream will come true.

Write a short essay (of about 150words) and share your opinions with your classmates.Sample essay:In my opinion, before a person becomes successful, he or she should fully understand the basic elementsof success: competence, determination and optimism.For a person to succeed, he or she has to face great competition and excel in his or her chosen career. Theperson needs to demonstrate and prove his or her competence in dealing with problems. Without competence,the person can neither stand out among the crowd nor attract the attention of those who hold the keys to thedoors of opportunity and advancement.Yet ability alone cannot guarantee success. Often enough, things do not go the way we have planned andfailure is unavoidable no matter how intelligent or capable we may be. In such cases one needs to remain firmand optimistic, always believing that hard work will eventually pay off. If the person gives up halfway, successwill never knock at the door.

Unit 2 Text A Three Days to See看见东西的三天海伦·凯勒1 我们大家都读过一些令人激动的故事，这些故事里的主人公仅仅活在有限并且特定的时间内，有时长达一年，有时短到２４小时。

但我们总是有兴趣发现，那命中注定要死的是那些有选择自由的人，而不是那些活动范围被严格限定了的判了刑的犯人。

2 这样的故事让我们思考，在相似的情况下，我们该怎么办，作为终有一死的人，在那最终的几个小时内安排什么事件，什么经历，什么交往？在回顾往事时，我们该找到什么快乐？什么悔恨？3 有时我想到，过好每一天是个非常好的习惯，似乎我们明天就会死去。

这种态度鲜明地强调了生命的价值。

我们应该以优雅、精力充沛、善知乐趣的方式过好每一天。

而当岁月推移，在经常瞻观未来之时日、未来之年月中，这些又常常失去。

当然，也有人愿按伊壁鸠鲁的信条“吃、喝和欢乐”去生活。

（译注：伊壁鸠鲁是古希腊哲学家，他认为生活的主题目的是享乐，而最高的享受唯通过合理的生活，如自我控制才能得到。

因为生活享受的目的被过分强调，而达此目的之手段被忽视，所以伊壁鸠鲁的信徒现今变为追求享乐的人。

他们的信条是：“让我们吃喝，因为明天我们就死亡”），但绝大多数人还是被即将面临死亡的必然性所折磨。

4 但是，我们大多数人把生活认为是理所当然的。

我们知道，某一天我们一定会死，但通常我们把那天想象在遥远的将来。

当我们心宽体健时，死亡几乎是不可想象的，我们很少想到它。

时日在无穷的展望中延展着，于是我们干着琐碎的事情，几乎意识不到我们对生活的倦怠态度。

5 恐怕，同倦的懒散也成为利用我们所有的本能和感觉的特点。

只有聋子才珍惜听力，唯有瞎子才体会到能看见事物的种种幸福，这种结论特别适合于那些在成年阶段失去视力和听力的人们，而那些从没有遭受视觉或听觉损伤之苦的人却很少充分利用这些天赐的官能。

他们模模糊糊地眼观八方，耳听各音，毫无重点，不会鉴赏，还是那相同的老话，对我们所有的官能不知珍惜，直至失去它，对我们的健康意识不到，直至生病时。

Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human
face.
— Victor Hugo
Click Picture
Interpretation:
When we feel disappointed, sad, lonely or miserable, we tend to feel as if we were living in winter. But laughter is a good medicine and it can work miracles. If we make a conscious effort to laugh, we will soon find that we are in a better mood. Here, Victor Hugo tells us, in a humorous way, the importance of being optimistic in times of adversity.

Dearest,
The invasion, I read, is a topic of daily conjecture among the people at home and I guess you are a bit worried. Well, sweetheart, don’t worry, please. It is possible I may be a member in the assault but no more possible than that I may someday die. It is God’s will darling, to which we must all bow. In prep school we had a quarterback who always ended his pre-game prayers with the addition of the phrase, “Not my will God, but Thine” and so it is sweetheart and so it must always be — we must trust our God unflinchingly, unquestioningly. I love ’em all but Polly best of all — Frank 6（诺曼底登陆前28天） 1944年5月9日最亲爱的，我读到报道说，国内人天天在揣测登陆作战一事，我猜你会担心。唉，宝贝，请别担心。我可能成为进攻行动的一员，这就跟我总有一天可能要死一样。这是上帝的意志，亲爱的，我们都必须俯首遵从。在读预科学校时我们有个四分卫，他在赛前祈祷结尾时总要加上一句： “主啊，这不是我的意愿，这是您的意愿。” 是这样的，宝贝，向来如此——我们必须相信主，无所畏惧地，毫无疑问地。我爱大家，最爱的是波莉—— 弗兰克

You may draw on some useful ideas and expressions from a variety of sources, such as the two texts in this unit or the Internet.1) Having read the two passages in this unit, you may have come to a better understanding of life and the timeswhen pessimistic and optimistic thoughts take turns to affect your behaviour. Write a letter of encouragement (of about 150 words) to one of your high school friends who failed in the college entrance examination. Tell him or her about your new understanding of the need to remain optimistic.2) The writers of the two texts in this unit convey to us the message that we need to look at the positive side ofanything that comes to us and that we need to take an optimistic and positive attitude toward life. Write an essay (of about 150 words) to share your ideas with your classmates. The following hints may be of some help:a. What is meant by “thinking positively”?b. What is the connection between success and optimism?c. How can we keep an optimistic and positive attitude?▆Sample Letter for Task 1:Dear Weihua,I know you are still feeling upset about your results in the college entrance examination. I’ve just read an article about how pessimistic and optimistic thoughts can affect our behaviour and I’m now sending you a copy, hoping that it will help you step out of the shadows.Naturally, failing the college entrance examination can be very depressing, yet if you continue to dwell on the past, you will never be able to pick yourself up and focus on what is more important for now and the future. Life is full of trials and anyone may suffer setbacks. We must take an optimistic attitude towards the things we have to deal with. Optimism and positive thinking are powerful forces. Good things do come true if we picture them often. Please do have confidence in your potential. Just work hard and prepare for another chance.You will make it.Yours,Janet(152 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:Thinking positively means allowing your mind to be filled with optimistic feelings, and always hoping for the best though still aware of the difficulties that might be involved.The human mind is powerful; thoughts of optimism and pessimism can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Though it might seem impossible to some, positive thinking and success actually have a cause-and-result relationship. The reason is that a person with positive thinking will always broadcast goodwill and confidence and that kind of radiating attitude will take a hold on everybody.Gradually, people’s attitude will shift towards more trust and respect. This not only opens up more opportunities for the individual, but it also feeds back emotionally, and the cycle continues.Though the shaping of a positive or negative personality often happens subconsciously, it is possible to control such processes consciously. A person can try visualizing favourable situations, whether it isremembering a contest won as a child or imagining getting that job offer so long sought after. Over time circumstances will change accordingly.

Theme-Related Writing1) Write a narrative essay (of about 150 words) about your pursuit of a dream or someone’s experiences inmaking his / her dream come true.Sample essayLi Hui, my friend in high school, was born into a worker’s family. She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice, because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the job opportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect her skills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chance came: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners would be given a scholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through her fingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certain that her dream will come true. (156 words)2) People may have different opinions about the key factors for success. Write a short essay (of about 150words) and share your opinions with your classmates.Sample essay:In my opinion, before a person becomes successful, he or she should fully understand the basic elements of success: competence, determination and optimism.For a person to succeed, he or she has to face great competition and excel in his or her chosen career. The person needs to demonstrate and prove his or her competence in dealing with problems. Without competence, the person can neither stand out among the crowd nor attract the attention of those who hold the keys to the doors of opportunity and advancement.Yet ability alone cannot guarantee success. Often enough, things do not go the way we have planned and failure is unavoidable no matter how intelligent or capable we may be. In such cases one needs to remain firm and optimistic, always believing that hard work will eventually pay off. If the person gives up halfway, successwill never knock at the door.
