新编大学英语第3册课后答案超详细版

新编大学英语第3册课后答案超详细版在大学的英语学习中,《新编大学英语》第3 册无疑是重要的一环。

对于课后习题的答案,详细准确的解读能帮助我们更好地理解知识点,巩固所学。

接下来,就为大家呈现一份超详细的课后答案。

首先,我们来看第一单元的课后习题。

第一题通常是词汇理解与运用,这部分主要考查对新学单词的掌握程度。

比如,有这样一个单词“profound”,它的意思是“深刻的;深远的”。

在句子“He has a profound understanding of the problem”中,就需要理解“profound”是用来形容理解的深度。

再看第二题的语法练习。

关于时态的运用,经常会让同学们感到困惑。

以一般过去时和现在完成时为例,“I went to Beijing last year”和“I have been to Beijing twice”,前者强调过去的动作,后者则强调过去的动作对现在的影响。

到了阅读理解部分,这要求我们不仅要理解文章的表面意思,还要能够领会作者的意图和观点。

比如,有一篇关于文化差异的文章,我们需要通过细节描写来体会不同文化之间的碰撞和融合。

第三单元的听力练习答案也值得详细分析。

听力材料中可能会有各种口音和语速,这就需要我们集中注意力,抓住关键信息。

在回答问题时,要注意关键词的匹配和理解。

写作部分的课后答案能给我们提供很好的参考和借鉴。

比如,题目要求写一篇关于旅游经历的短文,我们要注意文章的结构,开头可以引入主题,中间详细描述旅游中的所见所闻,结尾总结感受和收获。

对于翻译题,准确理解原文的意思是关键。

有时候,一个单词在不同的语境中会有不同的翻译。

比如“handle”这个单词,在“He knows how to handle the mac hine”中是“操作”的意思,而在“Can you handle this problem?”中则是“处理”的意思。

在第四单元的课后练习中,词汇拓展是一个重点。

新编大学英语(第三版/浙江大学编著)4视听说教程原文Unit3Part1Listening 1Three guys are out having a relaxing day fishing. Out of the blue, they catch a mermaid who begs them to set her free in return for granting each of them a wish.One of the guys just doesn’t believe it, and says, “OK, if you can really grant wishes, then double my IQ.” The mermaid says, “Done!” Suddenly, the guy starts to recite Shakespeare flawlessly and then make an extremely insightful analysis of it. The second guy is so amazed that he says to the mermaid, “Hey, triple my IQ.”The mermaid says, “Done!”The guy begins pouring out all the mathematical solutions to problems that have puzzled scientists in all fields.The last guy is so impressed by the changes in his friends that he says to the mermaid, “Quintuple my IQ.” The mermaid looks at him and says, “You know, I normally don’t try to change people’s minds when they make a wish, but I really wish you‘d reconsider.”The guy says, “No, I want you to increase my IQ by five times, and if you don’t do it, I won’t set you free.”“Please,” says the mermaid, “you don’t know what you’re asking for. It’ll change your entire view of the universe. Won’t you ask for something else? A million dollars or anything?”But no matter what the mermaid says, the guy insists on having his IQ increased by five times its usual power. So the mermaid sighs and says, “Done!” And he becomes a woman.Listening2Dr. Rose Herring, author of a book on language and communication, is being interviewed by Bob White, a writer for an academic journal on communication.Bob White: Good morning Dr. Herring! We both know that many communication specialists believe that gender bias exists in language, culture and society. Do you think this is really so? Dr. Herring: Yes, I certainly do. How we talk and listen can be strongly influenced by cultural expectations, and these begin during childhood. Children usually play together with other children of the same gender, and this is where our conversational style is learned.Bob White: Can you give some specific examples?Dr. Herring: Certainly. We find that girls use language mainly to develop closeness or intimacy as a basis for friendship. Boys, on the contrary, use language mainly to earn status in their group. Bob White: But, in communication through electronic devices like e-mail discussion groups, thereshould be no gender distinction if writers’ names are not used in the messages.Dr. Herring: One might think so, but in fact, e-mail writing style is more comparable with spoken language, so basic language styles are still evident.Bob White: I thought e-mail messages were gender neutral!Dr. Herring: No. while theoretical gender equality exists for the Internet, in reality women are not given equal opportunity because of different communication and language styles between the sexes.Bob White: How does that happen? Do you have any hard facts to back up this impression?Dr. Herring: Yes. I’ve done a research project using randomly selected e-mail messages from online discussion groups. I found that females use language that is more collaborative and supportive, such as “Thanks for all the tips on…”,”Good point.” and “Hope this helps!”. Men tend to use more aggressive or competitive language such as “Do you understand that?”, “You should realize that…”, “It is absurd to think…”.Bob White: How great are these gender differences?Dr. Herring: Males write messages using aggressive, competitive language more than twice as often as females do, while females use collaborative and supportive language three times as often as males do. In this study, it is clear that there is gender difference in e-mail messages just as in other communication media.Bob White: So the “battle of the sexes” is still with us, even online.Listening3John: Cathy, do you think it’s appropriate for females to continuously expect guys to behave in a standard gentlemanly fashion like opening car doors?Cathy: Well, I think it would be nice if men could do such things.John: My side of the theory is that we all have to admit that we are living in a changes world. Right? Sometimes the equation changes if the driver is a girl and the passenger is a guy who doesn’t drive. So what happens? Should the girl open the door for the guy or should the guy open the door for the girl? Maybe we should just adopt an “open your own door” policy. Cathy: Yeah, I agree, John. But…sometimes it’s just a matter of courtesy. It doesn’t matter who opens the door for whom. Maybe females just should not expect too much. Life isn’t a fairy tale after all.John: That’s absolutely true. Sometime I feel that there isn’t any difference in the roles both genders can perform. Of course I’m not saying that men can give birth. Rather what I meant was that except for the physical and natural differences between both sexes, there isn’t much difference between them.Cathy: But honestly, although I don’t expect guys to open doors for me, or to pull out a chair for me, I’m usually quite impressed if they do so, as many guys don’t do it. If the guy was walking in front of me and went through the door first, I’d appreciate it if he could hold the door and not let it slam in my face.John: Well, if I’m the one walking in front, I will open the door and hold it for the people behind me, be it a girl or a boy. I’ve actually had the door slammed right in my face a number of timesthough, when the person walking closely in front of me didn’t hold the heavy glass door and let it swing back in my face. Of course, I tried to hold the door, but it was too heavy and too late. But I think it was more embarrassing for him than me as everyone was looking at him, while I was rubbing my squashed nose.Cathy: So, being a gentleman does not stop at opening doors. There are many other aspects I believe.Listening4Do you know how you learned to be a woman? Do you know how you learned to be a man? What makes the difference in terms of gender and our roles in society? Even when our physical structures are revealed to be really similar, women and men “tend”to play different roles in society. In an article in the latest issue of Psychology Today, we find a study that reflects how parents of 15 girl-babies 15 boy-babies differed in their descriptions of their babies. Despite the fact that objective data such as birth length, weight, irritability, etc. did not differ, when the parents were asked to describe their babies, they said that girl-babies were softer, litter, more beautiful, prettier, cuter than boy-babies. Based on these facts, we could conclude that parents’attitudes are influencing their children.Our parents and later our school, television and Internet all show us a whole set of expected behaviors that create our patterns. Thus, a simple cartoon can suggest to children how they are supposed to act. Male cartoon characters are not only more prominent than female characters, but they also portray a broader range of masculine traits. Male characters are powerful, strong, smart and aggressive.Of course roles have been changing over the past decades. Women are not necessarily expected to stay home raising their family and supporting their husbands. In the same way, men are no longer expected to be the only breadwinner like they used to be; now women and men share these responsibilities. But traditional roes still have a big influence.Part2Listening 1“Equal” does not always mean “the same”. Men and women are created equally but boys and girls are not born the same.You throw a little girl a ball, and it will hit her in the nose. You throw a little boy a ball, and he will try to catch it, then it will hit him in the nose.A baby girl will pick up a stick and look in wonder at what nature has made. A baby boy will pickup a stick and turn it into a gun.When girls play with Barbie dolls, they like to dress them up and play house with them. When boys play with Barbie dolls, they like to tear their hair off.Boys couldn’t care less if their hair is untidy. If their hair got cut a quarter-inch too short, girls would rather lock themselves in their room for two weeks than be seen in public.Baby girls find mommy’s makeup and almost instinctively start painting their face. Baby boys find mommy’s makeup and almost instinctively start painting the walls.Boys grow their fingernails long because they’re too lazy to cut them. Girls grow their fingernails long—not because they look nice—but because they can dig them into a boy’s arm.Girls are attracted to boys, even at an early age. At an early age, boys are attracted to dirt.Most baby girls talk before boys do. Before boys talk, they learn how to make machine-gun noises.Girls turn into women. Boys turn into bigger boys.Listening 2In order to understand this story, you have to know the nursery rhyme Hickory, Dickory, Dock. In this nursery rhyme, the words in the title have no meaning. The rhyme gone like this:Hickory, Dickory, Dock,The mouse ran up the clock.The clock struck one,The mouse ran down!Hickory, Dickory, Dock.Here is the story:One day I took my seven-year-old son with me to buy an electronic wall clock for the kitchen, and found a whole counter full of them on sale at a discount store. I had trouble deciding which clock to buy. While I held one clock in my hand and looked at another, I asked my son which one he liked best. He said, “The one you’re holding with the mouse in it, Mom.”Before I understood his words, a real, live mouse jumped out onto the counter and ran away. I screamed so loud that everyone turned to see what was wrong. I was so embarrassed. I tried to make my way quietly out of the store, but my delighted son recited Hickory, Dickory, Dock. What a naughty boy!Listening 3Men, it is said, are generally more aggressive than women and enjoy taking risks. They play fighting games and enjoy “dares”. More men than women are convicted for crimes, especiallycrimes of violence.Some say that this is simply a matter of biology; others suggest than it is a function of the way we organize the sex and gender roles in our society. In fact, many of the findings, in this area, have turned out to be unsatisfactory, and often there turns out be very small differences with a large degree of overlap.Biologically, men certainly seem to be the weaker sex. On average, men experience heart attacks 10 years earlier than women, but have a better rate of survival if they survive the first year after an attack. Symptoms also vary by sex:Women experience shortness of breath, fatigue, and chest pain; most male heart attacks come on as sudden, striking pain in the chest. In adulthood, men are more likely to be infected with viruses and have a shorter average lifespan.In recent years, a great many biological sex differences have been found throughout the body, including the brain. However, regardless of the findings that sex differences really do exist after all and despite the pressure to deny them, socially, we still expect women to behave like women and men like men.Listening 4It is my belief that gender stereotypes are very real gender characteristics that are exaggerated to the extreme ends with no gray areas. So in truth a woman is “weak” physically only because a man is in reality “stronger”. A woman is “submissive”only because a man in reality is more “aggressive”. A woman is “emotional”only because a man is “less emotional”. All these are observed facts.Are there ways to avoid the stereotyping? This is hard to do. We as males and females love to exaggerate our differences. It seems we love to do this in many ways. We love to exaggerate gender traits as if to say “Look how female I am” or “Look how male I am”. Do we go so far as to actually create differences that do not exist? Not from what I see. I think we like to exaggerate our differences because the more male we feel or the more female we feel, the more attractive we feel.So, all in all, I believe stereotypes are true differences that are exaggerated. I don’t think stereotypes should be avoided because they are real. I don’t think that we should be attribute extremes of a trait to a gender as a whole, and most certainly not limit someone’s potential abilities based on a stereotype. Stereotypes should apply in general but not to an individual. They should serve to help make judgments but not as an absolute.。

新编大学英语(第三版/浙江大学编著)4视听说教程原文Unit6Part1Listening 1Husband: Oh! It’s unbelievable!Wife: What’s the matter?Husband: The article says that lifespan varies according to race, income level and whether you are male or female. Now, can you guess which is the most important factor?Wife: Hmm, I think it might be the sex.Husband: That’s right! My grandma lived four years longer than my grandpa. Generally speaking, women live longer than men. In 1993, the average lifespan of women was 6.9 years longer than that of men in the United States.Wife: 6.9 years! I can’t believe it. Then how about race?Husband: About race, the paper says white women live 5.1 years longer than black women. Wife: So this means I am doubly lucky since I am a white woman.Husband: Yes. But actually the largest risk you could run is being poor. Being poor is far more likely to kill you than smoking, drinking, a hereditary disease, or an unhealthy lifestyle.Wife: That’s true. If you are poor, you may not have good living conditions, good medical care and good nutrition. But still I have a question. Why do women live longer than men?Husband: I think you’d better ask the experts.Listening 2The possibility that something bad will happen is a risk. Risk can also be defined as the degree of danger that goes along with an opportunity. All risks have possible negative results. However, some risks are worth taking. For example, suppose that you have the chance to join a school football team. You risk a possible injury while playing to achieve the sense of accomplishment that comes with being on the team. You decide that the pleasure of playing is worth the risk of injury. By being fit, you can also reduce the risk of physical injury.How can we determine the risks involved in an action? Many risks that relate to health choices have been studied. These risks relate to choices made over activities or behavior that influence one’s health, either positively or negatively. Scientists can use statistics to measure these risks. Statistics is a branch of mathematics that helps determine the possibility that something willoccur. The information about this possibility is called statistical risk and can help you make healthy choices.For example, statistics indicate that in the United States the chance of dying from cancer is about 20 percent. In other words, two out of every 10 deaths are due to some kind of cancer. Therefore, the risk of death from cancer is quite high. However, statistics also show that 80 percent of all cancers are related to things over which you have some control. In other words, you can make choices that will reduce your risk of developing cancer. These include such things as avoiding pollution, not smoking and eating a diet high in fiber. If you do these things, you are less likely to develop cancer.Listening 3If you plan to go hiking in the wilderness or a national park, make sure you are prepared. A compass, a knife, and maps are all essential items to take with you. You should also take wooden matches in a waterproof case; some concentrated food such as nuts and dried fruit and water in a canteen. Plan for emergencies as well. Take along first-aid equipment, shelter for the rain, and extra clothes. In order to stay warm, your head, hands and feet must be kept warm, so you should bring gloves, extra socks and a wool hat.If you get lost in the woods, first try to backtrack and find the trail you were on. Look for trail signs other people may have left, such as piles of rocks, tied bunches of grass, or broken branches. Sit down and try to figure out which direction you came from and then go back that way.If you can’t find the trail, try to explore the area, making your path as you go. Climb a tree and look for landmarks. During the day, look for roads or rooftops in the distance. At night, look for lights and sniff the air. You may be able to smell smoke from a campfire. If you detect any of these signs, start to walk in their direction, but if it is dark, find shelter for the night and wait until the morning. Even a full moon won’t give you enough light to see; it can throw shadows that hide dangers.If you are lost, do not expect to be rescued. Even if someone knows you are lost and sends out a search party, it may not find you. Therefore, if you can get out on your own, do so. However, if you cannot move far for some reason, build a bright fire at night and a smoky one during the day. Try to clear an area that can be seen from the air, and use rocks to write a message. You can also use bright colors, shiny metal or mirrors to signal aircraft. Above all, do not panic.Listening 4I’ve been in a lot of dangerous situations. Over in Bolivia, for example, I was working for a small airline, and we carried just about everything: animals, whisky, dynamite, and, of course, people. There were times when I felt I was flying a bomb, not a place. Once I was taking dynamite to the mines. Dynamite! Man, I had never seen so much. They had even put some on the floor right next to me. I was certainly nervous on that trip. Well, I was flying over the mountains whensuddenly the engine stopped. Somehow I got my parachute on, and got down without the plane, but I was hurt. I was flying out there for about four days before they found me. They told me later that they had almost given me up for dead. Anyway, they got me back to the hospital, and three months later I was flying again. No, I’m not afraid of flying. But there’s a lot to worry about as a pilot.Part2Listening 1Balley: Hello, fire service.Grace: Oh, em, I’m ringing because I think there’s a fire in the house across the street. Smoke is coming out of the upstairs windows, and I can see flames too.Balley: Can you give me your name and address and telephone number, Madam?Grace: Yes. Grace Litton, 17 Mallett Street, Alford.Balley: I’m sorry. Can you spell Mallett, please?Grace: yes, M, A, double L, E, double T. The telephone number is 6943168. The fire’s in number 18, just across the road.Balley: Is anyone in the house?Grace: No, they’ve gone on holiday. They went to Bournemouth last Saturday, for two weeks. Balley: All right, Madam. We’ll send a fire engine up to Mallett Street straightaway.Grace: What shall I do? Shall I warn the neighbors?Balley: Yes, you’d better tell the people living next door, at number 16 and number 20. But don’t go into the house.Listening 2Six days ago, in Russia, a mine was flooded and lots of miners were trapped underground. Nobody knew how much air was inside and what the situation was for the tapped miners. Rescue teams tried every way to get some message from the miners, but it all seemed in vain. This caused worldwide concerns. The accident was reported by the world media. But this morning, to people’s great surprise, came the dramatic news that rescue teams had dug 60 meters and tunneled through. They had discovered survivors in the part of the mine not flooded. For the rest of the miners, however, those were really anxious moments. They had prepared themselves for the worst. Now suddenly there was hope that they could see their loved ones again. And then they too were rescued and brought out of the mine. Exhausted and wounded, they were not strong enough to wave to their relatives or friends. Wrapped with blankets, these survivors werecarefully handed over to the ambulances and taken to nearby hospital. However, not everyone survived. One miner was reported to have been found dead, another missing.Listening 3Joe Burns is a famous racing driver. He is being interviewed on a sports program.Reporter: You’ve had a very dangerous life, haven’t you, Joe? I mean, you’ve been almost killed several times?Joe: Yes. I suppose that’s right.Reporter: When was your worst accident?Joe: I’d say last year. It was during the British Grand Prix. I smashed into a wall. The car was completely ruined and my left leg was broken. Luckily, nobody was killed.Reporter: Is that the only time you’ve been close to death?Joe: No. Once, during the Mexican Grand Prix, two cars in front of me had a bad accident. One of them ran into the other. I swerved to avoid them and hit a fence. My car was badly damaged, but luckily, I wasn’t even hurt.Reporter: You must enjoy danger. I mean, you wouldn’t be a racing-driver otherwise?Joe: I don’t know about that. I had a very frightening experience quite recently. I was frightened to death! I thought I was going to be killed at any moment.Reporter: Really? Was that during your last race?Joe: No. It was on my way to this studio. I had to drive through London during rush hour.Listening 4On the morning of April 10, 1912, the luxury liner, Titanic, left English on a voyage to New York. Four days later, she lay at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. On July 18, 1956, the ocean liner, Andrea Doria, left Italy. It was also traveling to New York. Eight days later, this great ship also lay at the bottom of the Atlantic.The sinking of these two huge ships shocked the world. Reports of the two tragedies filled the newspapers for days. When Andrea Doria went down, people compared her sinking with the sinking of Titanic. There were similarities between the two events; however, there were also important differences.What were some of these similarities? First of all, both ships were transatlantic ocean liners. In addition, they were both luxury liners. They carried many of the world’s rich and famous people. In fact, 10 American millionaires lost their lives when Titanic went down. Today, millions of dollars worth of gold, silver and cash may still remain locked inside these two sunken ships.Another similarity, is that as each ship was sinking, there were acts of heroism and of evil. Some people even gave up their lives so that others could live. There were also some people who acted like cowards. For example, one man on Titanic dressed up as a woman so that he could get into a lifeboat and save his own life. One last similarity, is that both of these ships were considered“unsinkable”. People believed that they would never sink.There are also differences between these great ship disasters. To begin with, Titanic was on her very first voyage across the Atlantic; Andrea Doria, on the other hand, was on her hundred and first transatlantic crossing. Another difference is that the ships sank for different reasons. Titanic struck an iceberg; while Andrea Doria collided with another ship. Also, Andrea Doria had radar to warn of the approach of another ship; but Titanic was not equipped with radar—It had only a lookout. The lookout was only able to see the iceberg moments before the ship struck it. But, of course, the greatest difference between these two terrible accidents is the number of lives lost. When Titanic sank, more than 1500 people died—They drowned or froze to death in the icy, North Atlantic water. Also, about 700 people survived the sinking. In the Andrea Doria accident, 60 people lost their lives, and around 1650 lives were saved. One of the reasons that so many people died on Titanic is that the ship was considered to be unsinkable, and so there were about half the number of necessary lifeboats to rescue all the people aboard. Andrea Doria had more than enough lifeboats to rescue every person on the ship. However, they were only able to use about half of the lifeboats due to a mechanical problem. The passengers and crew of Andrea Doria were very lucky that another ship was able to rescue most of them. The passengers on Titanic were not so fortunate. It is interesting too that the wreck of Titanic was only found in September, 1985.。

Unit 3 Social Problems挂着钥匙的小孩––––笃,笃,有人在家吗?1 在美国过去的几十年中,生活开支一直在持续上升。

食品价格、服装开支、住房开支以及学费不断增高。

母亲们已经不再扮演专职家庭主妇的传统角色,这在一定程度上是出于经济上的需要,一定程度上也是为了使自己有一种成就感。

她们越来越多地在从事着家庭以外的带薪水的工作。

2 这样重大的角色转换影响到整个家庭,尤其是小孩。

某些后果是显而易见的。

例如,晚饭时间推迟了。

然而,这种转变对感情上的影响更为微妙。

母亲们早上带着负疚感离开家,因为孩子放学回家时她们不能在家等候。

她们压抑着负疚心理,因为相信从长远来看这份工作对大家都有利。

她们的收入能够使家庭积攒起孩子的大学学费、全家度一个更长的假期、买一辆新车,等等。

3 孩子们在感情上所受到的影响是很大的。

孩子们普遍感到受了伤害,有怨恨情绪。

毕竟有好几个小时他们要独自呆在家里,而他们觉得母亲应该“在那儿”等着他们。

他们也许会需要母亲帮他们完成家庭作业,或是想把一天里的活动说给母亲听。

然而十分常见的情况是:母亲们回到家里已经疲惫不堪,又面临着一个紧迫的任务––––做饭。

她们的首要任务是为全家人做晚饭,而不是放松地聊天。

4 挂钥匙的孩子们的年龄从6岁到13岁不等。

每天他们放学回家,用挂在自己脖子上的钥匙打开家门。

然后就独自呆在安安静静、空空荡荡的房间里。

对于某些孩子来说,这是一段属于他们自己的有所作为的时间,而对于另一些孩子来说则是令人恐惧的、孤独的空虚。

为了安全的原因,许多父母不允许他们的孩子出去玩或是让别的孩子来家玩。

因此这些孩子有一种被隔离的感觉。

5 接受采访的挂钥匙的孩子们的反应不同。

一些孩子说每天有几个小时让他们独自呆在家里培养了或者说激发了他们的独立意识和责任感。

他们觉得受到了关爱与信任,而且这种感觉增强了他们的自信心。

(挂钥匙的)女孩子们通过观察母亲们如何对付家庭与工作中的难处而学习了职业母亲的行为榜样。

新编大学英语4(浙大版)课文翻译单元一:享受幽默—什么东西令人开怀?1 听了一个有趣的故事会发笑、很开心,古今中外都一样。

这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。

那么,到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢?2 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人,因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。

这些学生文化差异很大,有来自拉丁美洲的,也有来自中国的。

我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。

这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。

3 为什么听我讲完一个笑话后,班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合,而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢?显然,有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。

而且,我们也发现有的人很善于讲笑话,而有的人要想说一点有趣的事却要费好大的劲。

我们都听人说过这样的话:“我喜欢笑话,但我讲不好,也总是记不住。

”有些人比别人更有幽默感,就像有些人更具有音乐、数学之类的才能一样。

一个真正风趣的人在任何场合都有笑话可讲,而且讲了一个笑话,就会从他记忆里引出一连串的笑话。

一个缺乏幽默感的人不可能成为一群人中最受欢迎的人。

一个真正有幽默感的人不仅受人喜爱,而且在任何聚会上也往往是人们注意的焦点。

这么说是有道理的。

4 甚至有些动物也具有幽默感。

我岳母从前经常来我们家,并能住上很长一段时间。

通常她不喜欢狗,但却很喜欢布利茨恩—我们养过的一条拉布拉多母猎犬。

而且,她们的这种喜欢是相互的。

布利茨恩在很小的时候就常常戏弄外祖母,当外祖母坐在起居室里她最喜欢的那张舒适的椅子上时,布利茨恩就故意把她卧室里的一只拖鞋叼到起居室,并在外祖母刚好够不到的地方蹦来跳去,一直逗到外祖母忍不住站起来去拿那只拖鞋。

外祖母从椅子上一起来,布利茨恩就迅速跳上那椅子,从它那闪亮的棕色眼睛里掠过一丝拉布拉多式的微笑,无疑是在说:“啊哈,你又上了我的当。

”5 典型的笑话或幽默故事由明显的三部分构成。

第一部分是铺垫(即背景),接下来是主干部分(即故事情节),随后便是妙语(即一个出人意料或令人惊讶的结尾)。

第一单元,羞怯的痛苦1 对许多人来说,羞怯是很多不愉快的起因。

各种各样的人——矮的、高的、愚笨的、聪明的、年轻的、年老的、瘦的、胖的——都说自己是羞怯的。

羞怯的人会焦虑不安,感到不自然;也就是说,他们显而易见地关注自己的外表和举止。

脑海中不断地盘旋着一些使自己不安的想法: 我给人留下的是什么印象?他们喜欢我吗?我讲话是不是傻里傻气?我长得难看。

我穿的衣服毫不引人注目。

2 很显然这种不安的感觉会对人们产生不利的影响。

一个人的自我看法反映在自己的行为方式之中,而一个人的行为方式又影响他人的反应。

通常,人们如何看待自己对他们生活的各个方面都会产生深刻的影响。

例如,具有积极的自我价值观或很强的自尊心的人往往表现自信。

由于自信,他们不需要他人不断地称赞和鼓励使自己感觉良好。

自信者热情地自发地投身生活。

他们不因别人认为他们―该‖做什么而受到影响。

有很强自尊心的人不会被批评所伤害;他们不会把批评看作是人身攻击。

相反,他们认为批评是一种要他们改进的建议。

3 相比之下,羞怯的人自尊心较弱,往往消极被动并且容易受他人影响。

他们(是否)在做―该做的事情‖需要得到别人的肯定。

害羞的人对批评非常敏感;他们觉得批评却好证实了他们比别人差。

他们也很难因别人的赞美而高兴,因为他们相信自己不值得称赞。

羞怯的人也许会用这样的话来回答别人的赞美之辞:―你这么说只是为了让我感觉好一些。

我知道这不是真的。

‖显然,尽管自我意识是一种健康的品质,过分的自我意识却是不利的、有害的。

4 能否彻底消除或者至少减轻羞怯感呢?幸运的是,人们能够通过坚持不懈的努力建立自信从而克服羞怯。

由于胆怯和缺少自尊是密切相关的,因此正视自己的优点还有弱点非常重要。

例如,大多数人希望每门功课都得A。

如果仅仅因为在某些领域有困难,就把自己列为差生,这不恰如其分。

人们对自己的期望必须与现实相符。

老是想那些不可能的事情会觉得自己能力差,甚至产生嫉妒。

当我们嫉妒比自己成绩好的学生时,我们正在自我毁灭。

If you select option A, for example, it would be a good idea to write letters while you are in college to a dozen or more publishing houses and ask for an interview with the personnel director. If you happen to have a contact such as an editor who might be willing to meet with you, so much the better . Make every effort to have an interview. You should be familiar with the company before your interview and your aim should be to express to the personnel manager your interest in working for the company. You might ask if a summer job (with pay, if possible) or an internship is available. In many cases interns do receive a small stipend; in others no pay is offered.
If you happen to have a contact such as an editor who might be willing to meet with you, so much the better. (3rd paragraph 3rd line) happen to= chance to发生于;偶然发生 发生于; 发生于 e.g. I had a most extraordinary thing happen to me yesterday. meet with meet someone , especially for discussion会见;会晤 会见; 会见 e.g. It is a pleasure to meet with you today. so much the better那就更好了 那就更好了 e.g. If you join us, so much the better.

A Long March to Creativity 培养创造性——任重道远 Howard Gardner[1] The Jinling Hotel is a comfortable, modern hotel in the heart of Nanjing, a big city in eastern China. My wife Ellen, ouryear-and-a-half-old son, Benjamin, and I lived there for a month in the spring of 1987 while we were studying arts education in Chinesekindergartens and elementary schools. The keyto our room was attached to a large plasticblock with the room number printed on it.When leaving the hotel, a guest wasencouraged to turn in the key, either byhanding it to an attendant or by dropping itthrough a slot into a container. Because the keyslot was narrow and rectangular, the key and the block had to be inserted carefully so as to fit into the slot.金陵饭店是一座舒适、现代化的宾馆,位于中国东部大城市南京市的中心。

1987年春天我和妻子埃伦及我们一岁半的儿子本杰明曾在那里住了一个月,当时我们在研究中国幼儿园和小学的艺术教育。

我们房间的钥匙系在一块大塑料牌上,牌上印有房间号。

Unit 1Sample 1It is believed that pessimism often leads to hopelessness, sickness and failure, while optimism usually brings happiness, good health and success. Pessimists also make those around them very miserable. Therefore, pessimists should change their way of thinking and overcome the negative aspects of their personalities. Here are a few tips for them:1. Try to smile more often. A smile has great power. It can chase sadness away. It will make you and other people feel happy. And it may even make things easier and better. Smiling in the morning makes a good beginning for the day. A smile is the most important sign of optimism.2. Build up your self-confidence. Try to discover as many of your personal strengths as you can. Then write them all down. Read them several times when you are getting ready to do something or when you are facing difficulties. Your list will help you see your abilities.3. Change your way of thinking. Don't always think that things will go wrong or that if they do there will be terrible results. Instead, convince yourself that things will improve and that you can work hard to help improve them. If you fail, think about what you have learned from the failure. If you succeed, praise yourself. Don't be too modest! There is nothing more encouraging than self-praise.Try your best to become an optimist.Sample 2Are you an optimist or a pessimist? If you're a pessimist, here is some advice for you.As everyone knows, pessimism is harmful to people. It makes you unhappy and unhealthy, and even brings depression, loneliness and failure. Pessimists tend to suffer more failures and setbacks because they don't believe they can succeed and thus don't struggle for it. Optimism, by contrast, can make you happy, healthy and successful. So it is good for you to change yourself from a pessimist to an optimist.Here are some suggestions for you to become an optimist:1. Remember that everyone experiences failures and disappointments. So when you fail, don't blame yourself too much. It may not be your fault.2. When you fail in something, profit from the failure as a learning experience instead of getting depressed. And next time, you can make your plans to be more successful.3. When you fail, don't be discouraged. Try again. Don't let negative thoughts hold you back. Just give yourself another chance. So never give up just because you failed.Pessimism is harmful, but it can be changed. Trust yourself and try to adopt an optimistic attitude, and then you will be a winner in life more often.Unit 3If I Were the Mayor of This CityAs the topic of the 2010 Expo --- “Bette r City, Better Life” indicates, the ultimate goal of making a city better is to make its people happier. So if I were the mayor ofthis city, I would start with issues which are closely related to people’s living quality.First and foremost, pollution. The air we breathe, the water we drink and the soli we plow, have been polluted in different levels. I would ask specialists to help eliminate pollutions, make out new policies to restrict local factories, and promote public awareness of environment protection at the same time.Second, the traffic. As people are getting more and more used to traffic jam, it’s time to make a difference. Subways would be built to lighten the burden of city buses and the number of private cars would be limited. I’d use all possible means to perfect the traffic system.Third, the income gap. The gap between the rich and the poor is enlarging these days. The social stability is being threatened that immediate measures should be taken to stop this tendency. I would narrow the education gap between the city and the suburban area, and create more working opportunities for laid-off workers. I would also try my best to form a reemployment-oriented training network to enhance their abilities to face challenges.With all these acts taking effect, I believe that in our city, the air would be more fresh, the traffic would be more convenient, the poor’s life would be easy and all our citizens would be happier to live in such a booming city.Unit 4Sample 1Dec. 28, ______Mailbox 352,________ University,__________ Road, Dear Sir/Madam:I would like to be considered as a private tutor listed in today’s _______ EveningPaper.I am 19 years old and right now I am studying at ________ University, majoring in Energy.

In a word, I’m sure that I’m a suitable person for the job and I can do it well.I would be glad to come for an interview at your convenience. My telephone number is _________. I am looking forward to hearing from you.Sincerely Yours,XXX Unit 5Should Learners Aim to Speak English with a Native-SpeakerPronunciation?Sample 1In my opinion, there is no point in aiming to speak English with a native-speaker pronunciation. For most people, it is a waste of time.First, language is a tool for communication among human beings. If people we meet understand what we are saying, that is all that is necessary. We do not need to imitate native speaker's pronunciation. In any case, there are many types of accents, so which one should we choose to imitate?Second, the most important thing is how well we organize what we want to express. Our ideas should be clear and easy to understand. To do so, we should be able to use right words and correct grammar.Third, given the fact that we live in China, it seems a little bit pointless for us to try desperately hard to get rid of our national accent in order to speak BBC English.Finally, each of us has our own style when we speak. If we can give free rein to personal style, the English-speaking world will become more colorful and more interesting.In a word, I prefer to speak with my characteristic and recognizable pronunciation, so long as listeners can understand me.Sample 2Yes, I think it is important to aim for native-speaker pronunciation. First of all, I think perfection is always a good goal in any aspect of language-learning. We aim for perfect grammar, so why not perfect pronunciation?Second, the purpose of learning a language is to communicate with native-speakers or people from other parts of the world. The better my pronunciation is, the more easily they will be able to understand me. And I want people to understand me without any difficulty.Third, English is now an international language and I would like to be part of that community. If my pronunciation is like a native-speaker's, I will blend into the community more naturally. I'll feel pleased if I am taken for a native-speaker. Even if I can't speak so well, I don't like to spoil the language by terrible pronunciation.So learners should aim to speak English with a native-speaker pronunciation.Unit 6Should Animals be Trained to Help Humans?Sample 1There are a wide variety of animals in the world. And many of them are highly intelligent. So if we train some animals to work for human beings, we can save a lot of money and manpower.First, some kinds of animals can be trained based on their capacity to do certain types of jobs better than humans. For example, since dogs have a superior ability to track down odors, we can train them to find illegal drugs, earthquake victims, or even ancient tombs.Second, some animals can even lend us their hands. The monkey is a good example. Monkeys can be trained to learn to open doors, fetch tools, bring books, etc. So they can help those who cannot move about freely because of some physical problems. Monkeys make the lives of these people happier and more comfortable.Finally, in some cases, using animals not only saves money but also trouble. Using dolphins as underwater guards can be better and cheaper than any man-made tracking devices.In a word, animals should be trained to help humans. If we train animals in the proper way, both humans and animals can get along very well.Sample 2Humans and animals are both creatures of nature, so we are equal. We have no right to take advantage of them. However, many animals are now being trained to work for us. Monkeys are trained as servants, dogs as hunters and sniffers, and dolphins as soldiers.Beasts should be allowed to run freely over great distances and birds, fly freely in the blue sky. When they are in nature, they are active and able to live a normal life. But when they are kept in captivity, they are bored and frustrated.If we have the right to choose our fate, so do animals. So when we force them to serve us, they have no freedom and are like slaves. What’s more, a lot of animals lose their lives when they help humans. But most humans don't care about their lives at all. As we know, life belongs to us only once and therefore is priceless, and it is also true with animals. But we show no mercy to animals when they have done so much for us. We are cold-blooded creatures and we should criticize ourselves.In brief, we should treat animals in the same way we treat other people. Give animals their freedom.Unit 7Sample 1Traveling Is WonderfulIn school we always study hard and rarely have time for play and relaxation. During our vacation, we can do what we like. Some students go swimming, watch TV, go to the cinema, etc. But all I want to do is to travel.Traveling is interesting. You can see a lot of fascinating things and you can learn about history. Three years ago, I went to Beijing. When I was in the Summer Palace, I walked through the famous Long Corridor, admiring the beautiful pictures drawn on it. In the Imperial Palace, I saw a lot of rare treasures I had never seen before. I went to theGreat Wall as well as the Ming Tombs. After visiting these famous places, I can’t help feeling proud of my great motherland.I think it is important to travel to different countries, if possible, so that you can learn about different cultures and customs. It can widen your knowledge of the world. In addition to learning new things, you can also discover the beauty of nature by yourself. When you are on the top of a mountain, you can breathe fresh air, you can see green scenery below and you can hear the sounds of nature. It is a very wonderful feeling.Now I’d like to invite you to go on a trip with me. Can you refuse?Sample 2I Enjoy TravelingI enjoy traveling. I even consider it as a part of my life. When winter vacation approaches, the question for me to ask is not whether I should travel but where I should travel.I find traveling can do me a lot of good when I look back on my trips. Traveling brings me knowledge and pleasure. It puts me in a good mood. When I go back to my studies, I work more happily.As for knowledge, traveling helps me learn a lot about local customs and it broadens my views. Three years ago, I went to the “European City”in Wuxi, wherethere are many models of European architecture. During that trip I learned something about Europe. Sometimes, traveling can bring me unexpected pleasure, too. Last year, two friends and I went to a small town near the Tai Mountain. The fact that the town had beautiful scenery and low expenses made us overjoyed.Traveling is uplifting because it is relaxing and we can get rid of our anxiety and stress during the trip. If we travel together with our friends, we can improve our friendship through the shared experience. We can also meet new people and make new friends.In the future, I plan to do more traveling.。

Understanding the Organization of the Text1) Introduction (para 1)It has been proven repeatedly that the various types of behavior, emotions, and interests that constitute being mas culine and feminine are patterned by both heredity and cult ure.2) There is a cultural bias in education that favors boys over girls. (para. 2-4)Supporting evidenceA. Teachers called on males in class far more than on femal e students. (para 2)i) Its consequence: This has a tremendous impact on the le arning process.ii) The reason for this: Active classroom participants devel op more positive attitudes and go on to higher achievement. iii) Two examples:a. In many of the former all-women’s colleges, the boys we re taking over the class-room discussions and active partic ipation by women students had diminished noticeably.b. A similar subordination of female to male students has a lso been observed in law and medical school classrooms in r ecent years.B. Teachers assigned boys and girls different tasks accordi ng to stereotyped gender roles. (para. 3)i) Its consequence: This prevented girls from participating as actively as boys in class.ii) An example: A teacher had the little boys perform the s cientific experiment while the girls were given the task of putting the materials away.C. Gender-biased education is also reflected in the typical American teacher’ assumption. (para 4)i) The assumption: Boys will do better in the hard, mascul ine subjects of math and science while girls are expected to have better verbal and reading skills.ii) Three examples:a. American boys do develop reading problems, while girls, who are superior to boys in math up to the age of nine, fal l behind from then on.b. In Germany, all studies are considered masculine and it is girls who develop reading problems.c. In Japan, where early education appears to be nonsexis t, both girls and boys do equally well in reading.3) The educational bias begins at home. (para 5)A. Supporting evidence:i) Boy preschoolers were permitted to go away from home in a much wider area than girl preschoolers.ii) Boys were encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity and physical skills, while girls are filled with fears of the world outside the home and with the desire to be approved of for their goodness and obedience to rules.B. The consequence when these lessons carry over from thehome to the classroom: Girls are generally observed to be more dependent on the teacher, more concerned with the for m and neatness of their work than its content, and more anx ious about being right in their answers than in being intelle ctually independent, analytical, or original.C. Conclusion: Through the educational process that occupie s most of the child’s waking hours, soc iety reinforces its es tablished values and turns out each sex in its traditional a nd expected mold.Vocabulary1. 1) genetic 2) assign 3) noticeably 4) approved 5) Bias6) deprived7) constituted 8) participation 9) unintentional 10) p ostgraduate3. 1) C 2) D 3) A 4) E 5) B 6) C 7) F 8) Bunit4Reading Comprehension1. 1) Introduction(para 1)It is introduced in the article how teachers and par ents can encourage creativity in children.2) An important strategy for parents and teachers to foll ow (para. 2-3)A. The strategy:To encourage children to spend time thinking and dev eloping new ideas.B. The significance for adopting the strategy:If children can be taught to think creatively, they wi ll be better able to function in tomorrow’s society.3) The definition of creativity (para. 4-5)A. Who successful students and adults are:Those who can find a number of ways to approach pro blems.B. What creative people can do:They can use what they have to produce original idea s that are good for something.4) A big problem in school (para. 6)The problem: Children can obtain and give back inform ation, but can’t figure out ways to apply what they know in new situations.5) A new approach to teaching (para 7)A. The approach: Combining the basics with the activities where students must use their imaginations.B. How to do so: By asking questions and meanwhile prais ing their ideas and new thoughts.C. How to facilitate the process: To create an atmospher e in which there is no risk in being creative-- a place where wild ideas are honored and valued, never scorned or dismissed.6) Things parents can do at home to encourage creativity (para. 8-10)A. To involve children in decision making.B. To help children to understand the consequences of v arious decisions.C. To encourage them to talk out loud about things theyare doing. The reasonfor doing so: Talking out loud improves language ski lls and thinking skills.D. To show a sense of humor. The reason for doing so: C hildren can see creativity in its purest form.E. To give children choices from their earliest age.Examples:a. When they are very young, let them choose between t wo food items for lunch.b. B. When they grow older, let them decide how to use t heir time or spend their money.Vocabulary3. 1) dismiss 2) consequences 3) promoting 4) applies 5) vital 6) scorned7) conventional 8) original4. 1) consciously 2) innovative 3) unconsciously 4) determined 5) Imagination6) aware 7) control 8) created 9) extension 10) techni que 11) vulnerable12) unfolding 13) joyful 14) gain 15) ApplyUnit5Understanding the organization of the text1) Introduction (para. 1)Athletes are chosen to be role models, and they can choo se only to be good or bad ones.2) Athletes should be role models. (para. 2-5)The author’s arguments:A. Athletes should not refuse the responsibility of being a r ole model while accepting all the glory and the money that comes with be ing a famous athlete. (para. 2)B. I try to b e a positive role model, but that doesn’t mean I am perfect. (para. 3)C. Qualities of a positive role model: (para. 4)a. He influences people’s lives in a positive way.b. He gives of himself in time or money to help those w ho look up to him.c. He displays the values like honesty and determinatio n.D. Athletes cannot take the place of parents, but can help r einforce what parentstry to teach their children. (para. 5)3) People sometimes expect so much that some athletes do n’t want t o be role modes. (para. 6-7)A. Sometimes people put athletes on a pedestal.Example: I have had parents in Utah put my picture on th e wall beside Jesus Christ. (para. 6)B. Constantly being watched by the public can be hard to to lerate at times. Example: 1: Negative publicity Michael Jordan received ab out gambling.2.

Unit 4 Career Planning择业规划1 进行择业规划不一定要遵照常规的或合乎逻辑的步骤。

我们每个人对不同的因素有不同侧重,也许在不同的时候会考虑择业规划的不同方面。

进行择业规划,要收集有关我们自身以及职业的信息资料,估计采取各种举动可能出现的结果,最后做出我们认为有吸引力并且可行的选择。

2 许多观察家指出学生在择业规划方面不是很在行。

他们列出了以下事实:1)大部分学生选择职业的范围很窄;2)多达40%至60%的学生选择专业性的职业,而实际上只有15%至18%的从业人员在做专业性的工作;3)男青年对文书、销售以及服务性行业兴趣索然,尽管这些领域会提供许多就业机会;4)多达三分之一的学生说不出选择什么职业好。

3 欧文·贾尼斯和利昂·曼在他们的《决策》一书中指出,许多人的决策方式存在严重缺陷,而这些问题似乎与人们处理问题的模式有关。

第一个缺陷是自满。

有些人对于要费心思考虑的择业信息置之不理,这就是自满的表现。

有些人采取“这不会影响我”或“这永远也不会发生”的态度,这就是以自满作为支配地位的行为模式。

当然,对于那些不决定成败的决策,自满是可以的,但在做职业方面的决策时,来不得自满。

4 人们在决策方式上存在的第二个缺陷是消极回避。

每当面临抉择而又自认为找不到合适的解决方法时,一些人或想入非非或做白日梦,以此来保持平静。

有些学生没有考虑到职业抉择会产生的影响,往往采取文过饰非(对自己的行为所作的解释虽能自我满足但却是错误的,以此来欺骗自己)或者拖延(推迟或耽搁)的态度。

面对现状也许会令人焦急不安,但认真考虑一下各种方案也能给人宽慰。

5 第三个缺陷是过份地提心吊胆。

当人们面对职业选择而又感到没有足够时间找到解决方法时,会感到惊慌失措。

他们紧张地寻找各种就业机会,然后采取匆忙的决定,忽视了这样的选择会带来的后果,也忽视了其他的择业机会。

惊慌失措的人往往会思路不清,缺乏逻辑。

6 最好的做法就是眼观六路,耳听八方。
