Because what I can learn from the quotationis that experience will teach you that to have real friends is more important than to have more friends.3. I like the fourth best. You know why? Because the quotation tells me that it is amiracle to have a real friend who trusts and supports you when others are against you.4. I like the fifth best. You know why?

Text Organization1.11.2Para. 1 serves as an introduction to why friendships end.Para. 6 serves as a conclusion: Anyway, most friendships do enrich our lives no matter whether they are long or short.2. Comprehension Check2.1 Focusing on the main ideasWhy do friendships end? The author offers some insights into the question.Friendships end because the situations friends are in change. These changes can’t help but affect a friendship. Next, the friends themselves may change. The breakups can be mutual or one-sided. It hurts less when both friends change. What tends to hurt most is when just one friend changes. A third reason is that as much as two people might want a friendship to survive, one or both of them might unintentionally neglect it. Lastly, conflicts can cause the end of a friendship, since most friendships have breaking points under pressure.2.2 Digging into detail1. Why do some friendships end, no matter how much you want them to last?2. When you decide to relocate for a new sch ool or job, this can’t help but affect afriendship. Likewise, if a friend of yours is in an accident, develops an illness, or loses someone close, these situations can’t help but affect a friendship. These events can end friendships if the necessary adjustments are not made.3. For example, when one or both friends start to date or get married, theirfriendship may come to an end. It hurts less when both friends want to do so. It tends to hurt most when just one friend changes.4. Friendship needs regular care. Taking a friendship for granted can cause it tobreak.5. A blow to a flower. If a flower gets repeatedly trampled on, it’ll eventuallybreak. So even those amazing close friendships need care when conflicts arise.2.3 Understanding difficult sentences1. B2.

Comprehensive Practice4.1 ClozeWhen it comes to friendship, few of us deliberately want them to cease. On the contrary, we want our friendships not merely to survive, but to flourish. Yet, no matter how much we value friendship, sometimes we do drift apart from one another. Without noticing it we may fail to invest enough time and effort in maintaining our relationships. If we neglect them in this way they cannot help but be damaged. And once the damage is done, it is often hard to revive the friendship.4.2 Translation1. The article/essay helps us get a deep insight into the nature of the problem.2. Based on mutual respect, friendship will flourish.3. Like a plant, friendship will wither if neglected.4.

全新版大学英语(第二版)综合教程3课后答案(2)Unit 1 Changes in the Way We Live生活方式的改变课文A在美国,不少人对乡村生活怀有浪漫的情感。
许多居住在城镇的人梦想着自己办个农场,梦想着靠土地为生。
很少有人真去把梦想变为现实。
或许这也没有什么不好,因为,正如吉姆·多尔蒂当初开始其写作和农场经营双重生涯时所体验到的那样,农耕生活远非轻松自在。
但他写道,自己并不后悔,对自己作出的改变生活方式的决定仍热情不减。
多尔蒂先生创建自己的理想生活售姆·多尔蒂有两件事是我一直想做的——写作与务农。
如今我同时做着这两件事。
作为作家,我和E·B·怀特不属同一等级,作为农场主,我和乡邻也不是同一类人,不过我应付得还行。
在城市以及郊区历经多年的怅惘失望之后,我和妻子桑迪终于在这里的乡村寻觅到心灵的满足。
这是一种自力更生的生活。
我们食用的果蔬几乎都是自己种的。
自家饲养的鸡提供鸡蛋,每星期还能剩余几十个出售。
自家养殖的蜜蜂提供蜂蜜,我们还自己动手砍柴,足可供过冬取暖之用。
这也是一种令人满足的生活。
夏日里我们在河上荡舟,在林子里野餐,骑着自行车长时间漫游。
冬日里我们滑雪溜冰。
我们为落日的余辉而激动。
我们爱闻大地回暖的气息,爱听牛群哞叫。
我们守着看鹰儿飞过上空,看玉米田间鹿群嬉跃。
但如此美妙的生活有时会变得相当艰苦。
就在三个月前,气温降到华氏零下30度,我们辛苦劳作了整整两天,用一个雪橇沿着河边拖运木柴。
再过三个月,气温会升到95度,我们就要给玉米松土,在草莓地除草,还要宰杀家禽。
前一阵子我和桑迪不得不翻修后屋顶。
过些时候,四个孩子中的两个小的,16岁的吉米和13岁的埃米莉,会帮着我一起把拖了很久没修的室外厕所修葺一下,那是专为室外干活修建的。
这个月晚些时候,我们要给果树喷洒药水,要油漆谷仓,要给菜园播种,要赶在新的小鸡运到之前清扫鸡舍。
在这些活计之间,我每周要抽空花五、六十个小时,不是打字撰文,就是为作为自由撰稿人投给报刊的文章进行采访。

Unit1 Ways of LearningPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.They were studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementaryschools in Nanjing.2.Their 18-month-old son Benjamin was fond of trying to place the key intothe slot of the key box during their stay at the Jinling Hotel.3.They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how todo it properly.4.Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant to their assignedtasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5.Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff at the Jinling Hotel.6.He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that oncan solve a problem effectively by oneself.7.He means that this incident pointed to important differences in educationaland artistic practices between China and the USA.8.The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child byguiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9.One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish andanimals skillfully and confidently; in a second example, calligraphers 9 and10 years old were producing works; and in a third, young artists work onperfecting their craft for several hours a day.10.Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may neveremerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11.This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12.The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balancebetween the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1)The text begins with an anecdote.2)His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in Chinaand the West.3)He winds up the text with a suggestion in the form of a question.2.Chinese1)Show a child how to do something, or tech by holding the hand2)Give greater priority to developing skills at an early age, believing thatcreativity can be promoted over timeAmericans1)Teach children that they should rely on themselves for solutions toproblems2)Put more emphasis on fostering creativity in young children, thinkingskills can be picked up laterLanguage Sense Enhancement(1)Summarizing(2)value originalityand independence (3)contrast between (4)in terms of(5)harbor(6)fearful(7)comparable(8)promote creativity(9)emerge(10)p icked upLanguage Focus VocabularyI1.1)insert2)on occasion3)investigate4)In retrospect 5)initial6)phenomena7)attached8)make up for9)is awaiting10)not; in the least11)promote12)emerged2.1) a striking contrast between the standards of living in the north of thecountry and the south.2)is said to be superior to synthetic fiber.3)as a financial center has evolved slowly.4)is not relevant to whether he is a good lawyer.5)by a little-known sixteen-century Italian poet have found their way intosome English magazines.3.1)be picked up; can’t accomplish; am exaggerating2)somewhat; the performance; have neglected; they apply to3)assist; On the other hand; are valid; a superiorII1.1)continual2)continuous 3)continual4)continuous2.1)principal2)principal3)principle 4)principles5)principalIII1.themselves2.himself/herself3.herself/by herself/on her own4.itself5.ourselves6.yourself/by yourself/on your ownComprehensive Exercises I.cloze1.(1)contrast(2)exaggerating(3)priority(4)on the otherhand (5)promoting(6)pick up(7)assist(8)accomplish(9)occasion(10)n eglecting(11)w orthwhile(12)s uperior2.(1)end(2)perform(3)facing(4)competent (5)equipped(6)designed(7)approach(8)rest(9)definitely(10)q ualityII.translation1.(1)It takes an enormous amount of courage to make a departure from thetradition.(2)Tom used to be very shy, but this time he was bold enough to give aperformance in front of a large audience.(3)Many educators think it desirable to foster the creative spirit in the childat an early age.(4)Assuming this painting really is a masterpiece, do you think it’sworthwhile to buy it?(5)If the data is statistically valid, it will throw light on the problem we areinvestigating.2.To improve our English, it is critical to do more reading, writing, listening and speaking. Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing inyour head you cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.The Salvation Army is a religious charitable organization.

George, the son of Mr. Johnson, liked listening to heavy metal music in the evenings, which made it hard for other residents in the community to fall asleep. Eventually the exhausted neighbors lost their patience and decided on direct interference. They called Mr. Johnson to tell him in a frank manner what they were thinking. Mr. Johnson assured them that he would certainly settle the issue. As soon as he put down the phone he scolded his son, “What has come over you?

Text Organization1.1Para. 1 serves as an introduction to why friendships end.Para. 6 serves as a conclusion: Anyway, most friendships do enrich our lives no matter whether they are long or short.2. Comprehension Check2.1 Focusing on the main ideasWhy do friendships end? The author offers some insights into the question. Friendships end because the situations friends are in change. These changes can’t help but affect a friendship. Next, the friends themselves may change. The breakups can be mutual or one-sided. It hurts less when both friends change. What tends tohurt most is when just one friend changes. A third reason is that as much as two people might want a friendship to survive, one or both of them might unintentionally neglect it. Lastly, conflicts can cause the end of a friendship, since most friendships have breaking points under pressure.2.2 Digging into detail1. Why do some friendships end, no matter how much you wantthem to last?2. When you decide to relocate for a new school or job, this can’thelp but affect a friendship. Likewise, if a friend of yours is in an accident, develops an illness, or loses someone close, these situations can’t help but affect a friendship. These events can end friendships if the necessary adjustments are not made.3. For example, when one or both friends start to date or getmarried, their friendship may come to an end. It hurts less when both friends want to do so. It tends to hurt most when just one friend changes.4. Friendship needs regular care. Taking a friendship for granted cancause it to break.5. A blow to a flower. If a flower gets repeatedly trampled on, it’lleventually break. So even those amazing close friendships needcare when conflicts arise.2.3 Understanding difficult sentences1. B2.

Sam said, “No matter who becomes the President, I don’t care.”3. No matter whether she comes or not, it makes no difference to me.4. Comprehensive Practice4.1 ClozeWhen it comes to friendship, few of us deliberately want them to cease. On the contrary, we want our friendships not merely to survive, but to flourish. Yet, no matter how much we value friendship, sometimes we do drift apart from one another. Without noticing it we may fail to invest enough time and effort in maintaining our relationships. If we neglect them in this way they cannot help but be damaged. And once the damage is done, it is often hard to revive the friendship.4.2 Translation1. The article/essay helps us get a deep insight into the nature of theproblem.2. Based on mutual respect, friendship will flourish.3. Like a plant, friendship will wither if neglected.4. No matter what may happen, we will do our best to overcome it.5. A friendship without constant care from both sides will end upwith a breakup.6.
