Answer thequestions by writing the corresponding letter on theAnswer Sheet.Why I Love ThanksgivingA Over the years, I have had the opportunity to visit nearlyevery state in the Union, and I never cease to be amazed by our country's variety of people and places.I can step out of a subway into New York City, go around a Michiganblueberry farm, or dig for clams along a deserted beach inMaine. These places are very different but they represent the land I love.B One of the strongest similarities I have found in all of usAmericans is the way we treat holidays. We all love holidays.They give us a reason to forget routine, to celebrate, and to make memories. What holiday gives us a better chance to do all of these things than Thanksgiving? Thanksgivingweekend is for most of us the longest, least interrupted weekend of the year. It is the ideal time for family and friends to come together again. It is also the most purely American of all holidays, because it celebrates the settling of our country by the Pilgrims over 350 years ago.C For me, Thanksgiving recalls all the things in life that Irespond to most strongly and for which I am truly thankful.There is the simple beauty of the earth and the harvest time.There is the satisfaction that comes from the working of the crops. And there is the tradition of the day itself: the return to my family homes in the green hills of Maryland and Virginia, the delicious food, and the sharing of holiday rituals.D For as long as I can remember, my grandparents had a farm nearFreeland, Maryland. Although I don't visit it often now, itwas once the center of my life. I was five years old whenI spent my first Thanksgiving at the farm. I remember themeal: the huge roast turkey, the red cranberry sauce, the wonderful mounds of just-whipped potatoes, and our family favorite pies — pumpkin and apple, fragrant with spices.That evening we gathered in the parlor and sang. “Singing for our supper,” we called it. To this day we sing for our supper in the Scott household on Thanksgiving. We always sing our favorite, “We Gather Together.”E In the Scott household, the Thanksgiving traditions havenever waned; they've just changed a bit. Although I now live in New York City, I never spend Thanksgiving away from the farm.Instead of at my grandparents' farm, it is now at my own farm in Virginia. Both my wife and I love to cook and we try to do extra special things on the holidays. Inaddition to our old traditional family favorites, we'veadded a molded tomato salad, an extremely rich sweet potato casserole, and a heavenly coconut and mandarin orange salad.But no matter how much the menu changes, no matter if we are serving roast goose instead of roast turkey or Southernpecan pie instead of apple, the sentiment remains the same.The spirit of the Thanksgiving holiday promotes life,friendship, closeness and family unity.Everyone who sharesa Thanksgiving meal with us becomes a friend, and everyfriend becomes an honorary member of the family.F I like to believe that I can remember clearly every taste,every smell, every slightly off-key note of our happysinging — everything except where all the Thanksgivings went.As I grow older, the celebrations seem to merge into o ne set of the best memories. I’ll always rememberThanksgivings as the times we ate good food, sangold-fashioned songs, and shared a lot of love with family and friends. May you all have the same kind of joy.51. All Americans love holidays.52. I’m often filled with wonder when I visit different places and meet various people in our country.53. The spirit of Thanksgiving encourages life, friendship, closeness and family unity.54. T hanksgiving is the ideal time for the reunion of family and friends.55. The writer’s grandparents’ farm was once the center of the writer’s life.56. Thanksgiving reminds the writer of a lot of things which he loves and is thankful for.57. T he writer and his wife now celebrate Thanksgiving at their own farm.58. The writer enjoys Thanksgiving and hopes everyone can have the same kind of joy.59. The writer enjoys the return to his family homes, the delicious food and the holiday rituals at Thanksgiving.60. The celebrations of Thanksgiving become part of the writer’s best memories.Section BDirections:In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please write the corresponding letter for each item on the Answer Sheet. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.A gentle breeze swept the Canadian plains as I stepped outside the small two-story house. Alongside me was a 61 woman in a black dress, my guide back to a time when the surrounding settlement in Dresden, Ontario, was home to a hero in American history. As we walked toward a plain gray church, Barbara Carter spoke 62 of her great-great-grandfather, Josiah Henson. “He was confident that the Creator intended all men to be created equal. And he never gave up 63 for that freedom.”Carter’s 64 to her ancestor is about more than personal pride: it is about family 65 . For Josiah Henson has lived on through the character in American fiction that he helped inspire: Uncle Tom, the long-suffering slave in Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin. 66 , that character has come to 67 everything Henson was not. A 68 sellout unwilling to 69 up for himself? Carter gets angry at the thought. “Josiah Henson was a man of 70 ,” she said firmly.61.62.63.64.65.66.67.68.69. 70.。

Stand up f or yourself, but try not to hunt p eople’s feelings.In cyberspace, we state this in an even more basic manner: Remember the human. When you communicate electronically, all you see is a computer screen. You don’t have the opportunity to use facial expressions, gestures, and tone of voice tocommunicate your meaning: words—lonely written words -- are all you’ve got. And that goes for your correspondent as well.When you’re holding a conversation online—whether it’s an email exchange or a response to a discussion group posting—it’s easy to misinterpret your correspondent’s meaning. And it’s frighteningly easy to forget that your corres pondent is a person with feelings more or less like your own.It’s ironic, really. Computers networks bring people together who might never meet. But the impersonality of the medium changes that meeting to something less personal. Humans exchanging e-mail often behave the way some people behind the wheel of a car do: They curse at other drivers, make dirty gestures, and generally behave like savages. Most of them would never act that way at work or at home .But the interposition of the machine seems to make it acceptable.26.The golden rule tells us _______________.A)one should not force others to do what he doesn’t want to doB)one can do the same thing that others doC)we should not fight with each otherD)we should cooperate with each other27.In electronic communication, all one need is______________.A)gestures B)sounds C)words D)pens28.One of the disadvantages of taking online is______________.A)it makes you unable to see each otherB)you may forget the feelings that the other hasC)it does harm to your eyesD)you cannot talk very long time29.According to the passage, computer networks ____________.A)shorten the distance between peopleB)make the meetings less personalC)enable us to make more friendsD)enable us to hold meeting online30.It can be inferred from the passage that ____________.A)having online meeting is like driving a carB)online meeting is very effectiveC)drivers are usually very rude and impoliteD)people tend to behave rudely onlinePartⅢ Vocabulary and Structure31.I don’t want them to ______________ their religious beliefs on my children.A)insert B)impose C)import D)inspire32.Septemer 1939 saw the _______ of the Second World War.A)outcome B)outskirt C)outbreak D)outline33.Don’t be bullied, learn to _________ your self and what you believe in.A)head for B)stand up for C)pass for D)go for34.He ______ his lessons about Italy with photographs of the people who live there.A)illustrated B)cited C)quoted D)explained35.In addition to rice, we need to _________ our diet with fish, meat and vegetables.A)replace B)supplement C)replenish D)mix36.The change in government is a(n) __________ event in our time.A)historic B)historical C)permanent D)eternal37.He speaks French well enough to pass ______ a French man.A)into B)over C) through D)for38.The waitress said that she noticed the man because he was _____ not only in address but in expenditure.A)sophisticated B)dizzy C)racial D)extravagant39.The old man prefers the ______ life to life in the city as he enjoys little blossoms and little birds when spring comes.A)diligent B)fugitive C)rural D)civilizedlions of Africans were sold into ________ between the 17th to the 19th centuries.A)evolution B)organization C)devotion D)slavery41.It took them a few years to _________ the sunken wreaks out of the water finally.A)spray B)haul C)forge D)veil42.We were intrigued to hear about Richard’s ________ when he went mount-climbing.A)exploits B)behavior C)deeds D)activity43.He makes a little money ________ by cleaning windows in his spare time.A)on the side B)as a result C)in the side D)aside from44.Though you frequently make mistakes, your accomplishments, ______, outweigh your faults.A)under no circumstances B)in additionC)on balance D)on the side45.She ______ a new career for herself as a singer.A)invested B)whispered C)forged D)diverged。

英美文学选读名篇中英对照 赏析 简介
Because I could not stop for Death, He kindly stopped for me;The carriage held but just ourselves And Immortality.We slowly drove, he knew no haste, And I had put awayMy labor, and my leisure too,For his civility.We passed the school, where children stroveAt recess, in the ring;We passed the fields of gazing grain, We passed the setting sun.Or rather, he passed us;The dews grew quivering and chill,For only gossamer my gown,My tippet only tulle.We paused before a house that seemed A swelling of the ground;The roof was scarcely visible,The cornice but a mound.Since then 'tis centuries, and yet each Feels shorter than the dayI first surmised the horses' heads Were toward eternity. 我无暇去会死亡爱米莉·伊丽莎白·狄更生我无暇去会死亡，死神便和善地接我前往，我只好放下劳作与闲暇，无法拒绝他的殷勤礼让。
我们一起坐上马车，还有永生陪伴身旁，我们驱车缓缓前行，他悠然自得不慌不忙。
我们经过校园，娱乐的孩子挤满操场，我们经过田野，麦穗张望，我们经过西沉的太阳。

Throughout history, religious doctrines have served as potent frameworks for shaping moral codes, ethical norms, and societal values.Various religions espouse distinct sets of beliefs and practices, which often provide adherents with a comprehensive worldview and a sense of purpose. These tenets offer a framework for navigating life's complexities and can serve as a compass for decision-making and conduct.Living in Accordance with Faith.By embracing religious tenets as a guiding principle, individuals strive to align their lives with the teachings and principles of their faith.

Individuals must navigate these complexities by thoughtfully balancing their personal beliefs with the laws and values of their society.Overreliance and Blind Faith:Uncritically accepting religious tenets without questioning their validity can lead to blind faith and a lack of self-reflection.

These early volunteer groups were often motivated by religious beliefs and a desire to serve humanity.In the 19th century, the concept of volunteerism beganto take on a more organized and structured form.

探索人性英文作文Title: Exploring Human Nature。
Human nature is a complex and multifaceted aspect of our existence that has intrigued philosophers, psychologists, and thinkers throughout history. It encompasses the inherent qualities, behaviors, and tendencies that define us as human beings. Through exploration and introspection, we can gain insights into the intricacies of human nature.One fundamental aspect of human nature is our innate desire for connection and social interaction. From the earliest stages of life, humans seek companionship and belonging. This drive to connect with others shapes our relationships, communities, and societies. We form bonds with family members, friends, and colleagues, seeking support, validation, and love. Our ability to empathize, communicate, and collaborate is rooted in this fundamental aspect of human nature.However, alongside our social instincts, human nature also encompasses elements of individuality and self-interest. We are driven by personal goals, desires, and ambitions that shape our actions and decisions. This self-interest can manifest in various ways, from pursuing success and recognition to prioritizing our own needs over others'. While cooperation and altruism are prevalent in human interactions, so too are competition and conflict, reflecting the complexities of human nature.Moreover, human nature is inherently adaptable and resilient. We possess the capacity to learn, grow, and evolve in response to our environments and experiences. This adaptability is evident in our ability to overcome challenges, adversity, and obstacles. From technological advancements to cultural shifts, humans demonstrate a remarkable capacity for innovation and change. Our ability to adapt and thrive in diverse circumstances is a testament to the dynamic nature of human nature.Yet, alongside our adaptability, human nature alsoencompasses vulnerabilities and imperfections. We are susceptible to biases, prejudices, and irrationality that can influence our thoughts and behaviors. From cognitive biases that cloud our judgment to emotional responses that override rationality, our minds are susceptible to a myriad of influences. Understanding these cognitive and emotional tendencies is crucial for navigating the complexities of human nature.Furthermore, human nature is shaped by cultural, societal, and environmental factors that influence our beliefs, values, and norms. Our identities are shaped by our upbringing, education, and experiences within specific social contexts. Cultural traditions, religious beliefs, and ideological perspectives contribute to the diversity of human nature, shaping our worldview and perspectives on life. Recognizing the role of culture and society in shaping human nature is essential for promoting understanding and empathy across diverse communities.In conclusion, human nature is a multifaceted and dynamic aspect of our existence that encompasses a range ofqualities, behaviors, and tendencies. From our innatedesire for connection and social interaction to ourcapacity for adaptation and resilience, human naturereflects the complexities of the human experience.

死亡和重生的英语作文简单
As a high school student, Ive always been fascinated by the concept of death and rebirth, not just as a philosophical idea, but as a part of the human experience. Its a theme that resonates deeply within me, and Ive often found myself pondering over its implications.Death, as we all know, is the end of life, the cessation of all biological functions that sustain a living organism. Its a universal phenomenon that every living being must face. But what intrigues me the most is the idea of rebirth the possibility of life continuing in some form or another after death. This concept is deeply rooted in many cultures and religions around the world, offering different perspectives on what happens after we die.In Hinduism and Buddhism, for instance, the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, known as Samsara, is a fundamental belief. It suggests that our souls are eternal and that after death, we are reborn into a new life, based on the karma we accumulated in our previous life. This idea of karma and rebirth provides a sense of continuity and purpose to life, encouraging individuals to live virtuously in the hope of a better rebirth.On the other hand, Christianity and Islam believe in the concept of an afterlife. They propose that after death, our souls either go to heaven or hell, based on our actions and beliefs during our lifetime. This belief system instills a moral compass, guiding people to live righteously to attain eternal bliss in the afterlife.However, the idea of rebirth isnt limited to religious beliefs alone. It can also be seen in the natural world. For example, the life cycle of a butterflyis a beautiful metaphor for death and rebirth. A caterpillar undergoes a transformation, entering a state of rest in a chrysalis, only to emerge as a beautiful butterfly. This process of metamorphosis is a testament to the cycle of life and the potential for renewal.Similarly, the concept of rebirth can be observed in the changing seasons. Winter, with its cold and barren landscape, may seem like a period of death for nature. Yet, as spring arrives, life blossoms anew, symbolizing rebirth and renewal.But what does this all mean for us as individuals? I believe that the idea of death and rebirth encourages us to embrace change and transformation in our lives. It teaches us to let go of our past and be open to new beginnings. Its a reminder that even in the face of loss and endings, theres always the potential for new life and growth.Moreover, contemplating death and rebirth can also foster a deeper appreciation for life. It reminds us of our mortality, urging us to make the most of our time on earth. It pushes us to live meaningfully, to cherish our relationships, and to pursue our passions.In conclusion, the concept of death and rebirth is a profound and multifaceted idea that offers different perspectives based on cultural and religious beliefs. Its a reminder of the cyclical nature of life and the potential for transformation and renewal. As a high school student, grappling with these ideas has helped me develop a deeper understandingof life and its many mysteries. Its a topic that continues to captivate my imagination and inspire me to explore the complexities of existence.。
信仰英语翻译
信仰英语翻译Belief is a concept that is deeply rooted in human nature. It guides our thoughts, shapes our values, and influences our behaviors. It is a force that gives us hope, strength, and purpose in life. As such, it plays a significant role in our personal and collective development.In its essence, belief is a conviction or trust in something or someone. It can take various forms, including religious, spiritual, philosophical, or ideological beliefs. People often derive their beliefs from their upbringing, cultural background, personal experiences, or rational thinking.Religious beliefs, for example, revolve around faith in a higher power, be it God, deities, or divine energy. These beliefs provide individuals with a framework for understanding the world and their place in it. They offer guidance on how to live a morally upright and fulfilling life. Additionally, religious beliefs often provide rituals, traditions, and a sense of community, which can foster a sense of belonging and support.Spiritual beliefs, on the other hand, focus on the individual's connection with their inner self and the universe. They may involve practices such as meditation, self-reflection, or exploration of consciousness. Spiritual beliefs often seek to find meaning, purpose, and transcendence beyond the material world. Philosophical beliefs involve a rational inquiry into fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, ethics, and reality. They may encompass various schools of thought, such as existentialism, utilitarianism, or stoicism. Philosophical beliefs offer intellectualframeworks for understanding the nature of reality and human existence.Ideological beliefs center around a set of political, social, or economic principles. They provide a vision for how society should function and how individuals should interact with one another. Ideological beliefs often form the basis for political movements, social activism, or cultural values.Regardless of the type of belief, they can shape individuals' thoughts and behaviors. Beliefs have the power to inspire individuals to undertake great deeds, overcome obstacles, and persevere in the face of adversity. They can provide solace during difficult times and help individuals find meaning and purpose in their lives.However, beliefs can also lead to conflict, discrimination, and division. When held rigidly and without critical examination, beliefs can create barriers between different groups of people. It is essential, therefore, to cultivate an open-minded and respectful attitude towards others' beliefs, promoting dialogue and understanding.In conclusion, belief is a fundamental aspect of human existence. It guides individuals' thoughts, values, and behaviors, providing them with hope, strength, and purpose. Whether religious, spiritual, philosophical, or ideological, beliefs shape individuals' understanding of the world and their place in it. They can inspire great deeds or lead to conflict, making it crucial to foster dialogue and respect among people with different beliefs.。

Buddhist theory of “pratityasamutpāda” emphasize the importance of relations in different things and points out that there are no things which are isolated. The theory of “Connection Among Three Worlds” and other theories are the way for Buddhism to link up subject and object. The real intention of Dharma is to establish an equal circle of life between human beings living things and nonliving things. According to the Buddhist belief, the transformation of the external environment and the realization of an ideal environment are set up on the reform of the subjective world of man. The environmental crisis today is namely the result of human deviation from the Buddhist principle.
The Buddhist Ecological Views and Practice

The Buddhist ecological practices not only provide the Buddhists with the way of self-improvement and guide them toward their adaptation to the community and their service to the masses, but also demonstrate that the way to achieve global ecological protection depends on enhancing the people’s understanding and participation.

It regards protection of the natural environment an essential part of its religious practice, and holds that the natural ecological valance must be preserved. It advocates (主张) that men should take the limit of endurance of the natural ecological environment into full consideration during economic development, and enhance people’s consciousness of the harmonious co-existence with nature. It also respects life, opposes war and killing and advocates peaceful co-existence of all races, ethnic nationalities and religions.
The Contribution of Taoists to the Protection of Ecological Environment
The age-old Chinese Taoism has been contributing to the development of human civilization, over the past two millenniums, through the development of its rich ideals, culture and religious legacy (遗产).

Carry Forward the Ideal of Taoism, Protect Ecological Environment and Benefit Mankind
As an ecological crisis worsens around the world, more and more people have realized that the environment problem is not merely a result of over zealous (狂热的) industrial and technological development, but is an issue closely related to people’s world outlook, values and knowledge system. We hold that only when the Taoist belief of “letting things take their own nature course” takes root at the heart of all people and is earnestly practiced, can the world’s ecological crisis be thoroughly resolved and mankind’s eternal welfare be preserved.
Islamic Ecological Outlook and Its Modern Significance
The Islamic culture’s outlook of a harmonious ecology and ties brilliant success achieved through integration (结合) with other cultures and in the spirit of modern science will be revitalized (复活) to demonstrate important spiritual value in overcoming ecological crisis and facilitating sustainable development. And it will also contribute in encouraging people to create an ecologically harmonious world, featuring luxuriant (丰富的) forests crystal-clear lakes, paradise of chirping birds and gardens of fragrant (香的) flowers in the new century.
Religious Beliefs on Npment
The modern thought of sustainable development has, actually, stemmed from people’s growing understanding of and their deep concern about environmental problems. In fact, a variety of views and ideas on sustainable development have also been embodied in the principles, doctrines and practices of Taoism. The Taoist idea of “cherishing human beings and treasuring life” does not, however, entail (把……给以) upon men the privilege to put themselves above nature. Instead, it requires mankind to live in harmony with nature, under the principle that man is an integral (组成的) part of nature. To grasp such a dialectical relationship is of crucial importance in today’s drive to achieve a sustainable development.
