Unit 1Text A An impressive English lesson一堂难忘的英语课如果我是唯一一个还在纠正小孩英语的家长，那么我儿子也许是对的。

对他而言，我是一个乏味的怪物：一个他不得不听其教诲的父亲，一个还沉湎于语法规则的人，对此我儿子似乎颇为反感。

我觉得我是在最近偶遇我以前的一位学生时，才开始对这个问题认真起来的。

这个学生刚从欧洲旅游回来。

我满怀着诚挚期待问她：“欧洲之行如何？”她点了三四下头，绞尽脑汁，苦苦寻找恰当的词语，然后惊呼：“真是，哇！”没了。

所有希腊文明和罗马建筑的辉煌居然囊括于一个浓缩的、不完整的语句之中！我的学生以“哇！”来表示她的惊叹，我只能以摇头表达比之更强烈的忧虑。

关于正确使用英语能力下降的问题，有许多不同的故事。

学生的确本应该能够区分诸如their/there/they’re之间的不同，或区别complimentary跟complementary之间显而易见的差异。

由于这些知识缺陷，他们承受着大部分不该承受的批评和指责，因为舆论认为他们应该学得更好。

学生并不笨，他们只是被周围所看到和听到的语言误导了。

举例来说，杂货店的指示牌会把他们引向stationary（静止处），虽然便笺本、相册、和笔记本等真正的stationery (文具用品) 并没有被钉在那儿。

朋友和亲人常宣称They’ve just ate。

实际上，他们应该说They’ve just eaten。

因此，批评学生不合乎情理。

对这种缺乏语言功底而引起的负面指责应归咎于我们的学校。

学校应对英语熟练程度制定出更高的标准。

可相反，学校只教零星的语法，高级词汇更是少之又少。

还有就是，学校的年轻教师显然缺乏这些重要的语言结构方面的知识，因为他们过去也没接触过。

学校有责任教会年轻人进行有效的语言沟通，可他们并没把语言的基本框架——准确的语法和恰当的词汇——充分地传授给学生。

因为语法对大多数年轻学生而言枯燥且乏味，所以我觉得讲授语法得一步一步、注重技巧地进行。

U2 AA child's clutter awaits an adult's return儿时百宝箱老大归家梦I watch her back her new truck out of the driveway. The vehicle is too large, too expensive. She'd refused to consider a practical car with good gas efficiency and easy to park. It's because of me, I think. She bought it to show me that she could. 我看着她在车道上倒着她的新卡车。

车太大，而且太贵。

她就是不愿意考虑买辆开起来省油、停起来省心的实用型汽车。

我想，原因在我。

她买这辆车就是为了让我看看她的能耐。

茶馆丰富的生活哲理每一条生命似乎都是在苦难和欢乐之间张扬。

有些人通过工作、朋友和家庭来寻求安慰。

而有些人则喜欢逛茶馆，与不同背景、不同身份的人交谈，分享他们的故事和哲学。

茶馆是中国文化的一部分，这里成为了社会集中的一个地方，一个人们聚会兴会聊天的地方。

这种传统的文化娱乐方式，成为了许多人心灵深处的撒手锏。

茶馆文化也逐渐演化出精炼的哲学，这些哲学或许比我们所看到的更深刻和有影响力。

1. 观察力“观察力”可能是在茶馆可学到的最重要的哲学之一。

对于一个经常到茶馆喝茶的人来说，所有的事情都可能成为一个故事和哲学的来源。

通过观察不同的人，不同的情境和现象，人们变得更有意识、更敏锐，更善于察觉周围的世界和社会。

2. 知识的深度茶馆也是获取知识深度的地方，它可以是教育、知识、文化和信息交流的中心。

在茶馆里，人们可以聊学术、聊封建领地、聊商业等等。

这种聚集，让不同地位、不同阶层的人在同一个地方进行交流，使得他们积累更多丰富的知识。

3. 时间的价值经常喝茶的人会发现，时间有时过得就像火箭一样快。

但在茶馆里面会让这种快速的时光滑慢下来。

茶馆成为唯一的地方，让人们可以彻底放松，享受喝茶所带来的轻松和闲适。

在这种舒适的环境中，时间变得无足轻重，服务员和茶楼的管理者，也可以在这种时空里，从静态到动态去理解时间的价值。

4. 无私的爱茶馆是一个聚集了很多不同人的地方，每一天都会有各个不同的人喝茶。

在茶馆，也许会有一个或几个里面真正的人从你身边走过，他会在你最意外的时刻送你一盏茶，或是向你讲述自己的生活故事。

这种相互的了解和倾听，不仅展示了人类各种形式的爱，也展现出一种对陌生人的尊重和关爱。

5. 文化的传承茶馆已成为承载中国传统文化的一个代表，这里有着包括中国四大名画之一的黄山系列壁画之类的文化标志。

它不仅仅代表着文化的传承，还代表着人们对文化和传统的理解与承认。

当今的茶馆文化继承了古代的文化底蕴，从茶艺，到话剧，到新媒体，它们都深刻影响着我们的生活方式和思维方式，丰富了我们的内在世界。

Unit 2 Fit for lifeTwo life-saving medicinesThis article will focus on two drugs that started revolutions in medicine. If you open up any medicine cupboard or go to any medicine counter in the world, it is likely that you will find aspirin and penicillin. Both of these medicines have saved millions of people's lives and have proved beneficial to mankind since they were invented.AspirinAspirin was invented in 1897. However, the basic chemical used to make aspirin can be found in nature. Nearly 3,500 years ago, people chewed on leaves or drank a kind of tea made from leaves possessing a special chemical to reduce body pains and fever. About 2,500 years ago, the Greek physician Hippocrates, father of all doctors, made a juice from a tree bark containing salicylic acid for the same effect. It was in 1897 that a European chemist called Dr Felix Hoffmann produced aspirin from this chemical. The first trials of this medicine took place in 1899, when the company Hoffmann worked for began distributing the medicine in powder form to physicians to use with patients. A year later, in 1900, aspirin was sold in shops in the form of tablets. Within a short time, aspirin became the best-selling medicine in the world for pain relief.Not only has aspirin proved vital for reducing fever and helping stop pain, but there are also other things that aspirin can help with. Lawrence Craven, a doctor from the USA, introduced the idea in 1953 that aspirin had the potential to reduce the risk of heart attacks, because it helped the blood circulate better. The report was ignored. However, in 1971, Smith and Willis from the UK proved that aspirin could have that effect, and in 1977 a study carried out in the USA showed that aspirin could prevent strokes, as well. Eleven years later, Dr Thun from the USA showed that aspirin could reduce the risk of some cancers by 40 per cent. In 1999, aspirin was over 100 years old, and yet there have been more discoveries about how it can help increase the length of people's lives. In 2003, a Chinese doctor, Dr Y uan Minsheng, found that aspirin could reduce blood sugar levels and, therefore, help people with diabetes.PenicillinAnother drug that has helped increase the standard of people's health is penicillin, which is considered by many to be one of the most important medicines in contemporary society. It was discovered by a Scottish scientist named Alexander Fleming in 1928. He noted that a dish in which he was trying to grow bacteria for an experiment looked abnormal--there was blue mould in it. It astonished him to see the bacteria surrounding the mould dead, which meant that the mould had killed them. Fleming tried this mould out on another bacterium and found that it killed the bacterium too. He immediately realized that the mould might have an application in treating illnesses caused by bacteria. He named the liquid made from the mould 'penicillin'. However, the development of penicillin as a drug faced two problems. First, he was unable to find a procedure to make penicillin pure enough to work as a medicine. Second, it was difficult to produce penicillin in the ample quantities needed to be effective. In 1940, two other scientists, Howard Florey (Australian) and Ernst Chain (German-born English), helped solve these problems, and managed to make and test the new drug in large quantities. Since the new drug was needed for World War II, the government approval process for penicillin was accelerated, and mass production began in 1944. Due to the widespread use of penicillin, many lives were saved during the war. If penicillin had not been available, many people would have died from sickness or evensmall wounds. Penicillin became the greatest drug of the 20th century, saving millions of lives.In 1945, the three scientists, Fleming, Florey and Chain, shared the Nobel Prize in Medicine for their work.Magic needles: Chinese acupunctureOne of the most famous Chinese medical treatments is the art of 'magic needles', or Chinese acupuncture. It was developed long ago, perhaps as early as 2000 BC. There is evidence that acupuncture began during the Stone Age, when stone tools called bian (砭) were used to press areas of the body.As acupuncture developed, the simple bian stones were replaced by stone needles. Eventually, metal needles began to appear and took their place. There were nine different kinds of needles. These included a needle with a head like an arrow, used for making shallow holes in the surface of the skin; a needle with a round tip, used for pressing the tissue under the skin; a dull needle, used for tapping against pressure points; and a needle like a small sword, used for letting liquid out of body parts which had swollen up. These needles could be made of different metals, such as gold and silver. Some acupuncturists today still use gold and silver needles, but the majority use only stainless steel ones. The main needle now used for acupuncture is fine and sharp. Most of the others have been replaced by more complex medical instruments. For example, the needle looking like a sword has been replaced by a sharp knife that doctors use in operations.Acupuncture uses stainless steel needles that are put into the skin at certain points on the body so that a disease can be cured or a health problem solved. These points are called acupuncture points. When acupuncture was first practised, there were 365 such points. The number of acupuncture points was the same as the number of days in a year. However, over the last 2,000 years, this number has gradually increased to about 2,000. Some acupuncturists insert needles at or near the body part affected by the disease, while others select points according to the symptoms that the patient has.If you go to an acupuncturist, he or she will ask you questions about your medical history and your way of life. The acupuncturist will look at the colour of your skin and your tongue, listen to your breathing, and check your pulses.Western medicine only recognizes one pulse which indicates the heartbeat. However, according to traditional Chinese medicine, there are twelve different pulses, six on each wrist, and every one of them is connected with a major body organ or its function. By checking all the pulses, the acupuncturist can find out which energy channel does not have enough energy.Some of the medical problems that can be treated by acupuncture include severe pains, headaches, injuries, stomach problems and high blood pressure. Some people have also used acupuncture to treat smokers, alcoholics and people who are addicted to drugs.How acupuncture reduces pain is not clear. One theory explaining this phenomenon suggests that acupuncture blocks pain signals from reaching the brain. Another theory relates acupuncture to the production of chemicals in the body which reduce pain. A lot of people now subscribe to these theories.As a unique contribution of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture spread to many other Asian countries, such as Japan, as early as the 6th century. It was introduced to the West in the 17thcentury. Today acupuncture has become popular round the world, as have other traditional Chinese medicines. The World Health Organization recommends acupuncture as a good treatment for over forty medical problems. While doubts about its safety have faded away, interest continues to grow.两种挽救生命的药物这篇文章将着重讲述两种引发了医学革命的药物。

新视野大学英语读写教程第二版第2册课文翻译UNIT11. 美国人认为没有人能停止不前。

如果你不求进取，你就会落伍。

这种态度造就了一个投身于研究、实验和探索的民族。

时间是美国人注意节约的两个要素之一，另一要素是劳力。

2. 人们一直说：“只有时间才能支配我们。

”人们似乎把时间当作一个差不多是实实在在的东西来对待。

我们安排时间、节约时间、浪费时间、挤抢时间、消磨时间、缩减时间、对时间的利用作出解释；我们还要因付出时间而收取费用。

时间是一种宝贵的资源，许多人都深感人生的短暂。

时光一去不复返。

我们应当让每一分钟都过得有意义。

3. 外国人对美国的第一印象很可能是：每个人都匆匆忙忙──常常处于压力之下。

城里人看上去总是在匆匆地赶往他们要去的地方，在商店里他们焦躁不安地指望店员能马上来为他们服务，或者为了赶快买完东西，用肘来推搡他人。

白天吃饭时人们也都匆匆忙忙，这部分地反映出这个国家的生活节奏。

人们认为工作时间是宝贵的。

在公共用餐场所，人们都等着别人尽快吃完，以便他们也能及时用餐，你还会发现司机开车很鲁莽，人们推搡着在你身边过去。

你会怀念微笑、简短的交谈以及与陌生人的随意闲聊。

不要觉得这是针对你个人的，这是因为人们都非常珍惜时间，而且也不喜欢他人“浪费”时间到不恰当的地步。

4. 许多刚到美国的人会怀念诸如商务拜访等场合开始时的寒暄。

他们也会怀念那种一边喝茶或喝咖啡一边进行的礼节性交流，这也许是他们自己国家的一种习俗。

他们也许还会怀念在饭店或咖啡馆里谈生意时的那种轻松悠闲的交谈。

一般说来，美国人是不会在如此轻松的环境里通过长时间的闲聊来评价他们的客人的，更不用说会在增进相互间信任的过程中带他们出去吃饭，或带他们去打高尔夫球。

既然我们通常是通过工作而不是社交来评估和了解他人，我们就开门见山地谈正事。

因此，时间老是在我们心中滴滴答答地响着。

5. 因此，我们千方百计地节约时间。

我们发明了一系列节省劳力的装置；我们通过发传真、打电话或发电子邮件与他人迅速地进行交流，而不是通过直接接触。

大学英语读写教程2第四版unit2作文

大学英语读写教程2第四版unit2作文I am unable to fulfill the requirement of emulating a human response with emotional elements. However, I can generate a sample essay that meets the other requirements.---The Importance of Critical Thinking in College EducationCritical thinking is an essential skill that all college students should develop in order to succeed in their academic pursuits and beyond. In today'sfast-paced and complex world, the ability to think critically is more important than ever. In this essay, I will discuss the importance of critical thinking in college education from various perspectives.First and foremost, critical thinking is crucial for academic success. In college, students are often required to analyze complex texts, solve challenging problems, and think critically about various issues. Without strong critical thinking skills, students may struggle to comprehend and engage with the material presented to them. By developing their critical thinking abilities, students can better understand and evaluate the information they encounter, leading to improved academic performance.Furthermore, critical thinking is essential for personal and intellectual growth. When students learn to think critically, they become more open-minded and better able to consider different perspectives. This not only enriches their own learning experience but also fosters a more inclusive and diverse academic community. Additionally, critical thinking encourages students to question assumptions, challenge established beliefs, and seek out new knowledge. This intellectual curiosity is essential for lifelong learning and personal development.In addition to its academic and personal benefits, critical thinking is also valuable for future career success. Employers consistently rank critical thinking as one of the most important skills for job candidates. In today's competitive job market, employers are seeking individuals who can analyze complex problems, make sound decisions, and think creatively. By honing their critical thinking skills in college, students can better prepare themselves for the demands of the professional world.Moreover, critical thinking is essential for responsible citizenship and civic engagement. In an era of misinformation and fake news, the ability to think critically about the information we encounter is more important than ever. College students who develop strong critical thinking skills are better equipped to evaluate the credibility of sources, discern fact from opinion, and make informed decisions as engaged citizens. This is essential for the health of our democracy and the well-being of society as a whole.In conclusion, critical thinking is a vital skill that all college students should strive to develop. From its academic benefits to its personal, professional, and civic implications, the importance of critical thinking in college education cannot be overstated. By fostering a culture of critical thinking on college campuses, we can empower students to become lifelong learners, responsible citizens, and successful professionals.In conclusion, critical thinking is a vital skill that all college students should strive to develop. From its academic benefits to its personal, professional, and civic implications, the importance of critical thinking in college education cannot be overstated. By fostering a culture of critical thinking on college campuses, we can empower students to become lifelong learners, responsible citizens, and successful professionals.。

今天和昨天又能有多大的转变？Today she's gone, off to be an adult far away from me. I'm glad she's gone. It means she made it, and that I'm finally free of 18 years of responsibilities. And yet I wonder if she could take good care of herself.今天她走了，远离我去寻求成年人的独立。
