新视野第二册翻译练习答案以及重点段落Unit 1: Para 3A foreigner’s first impression of the US is likely to be that everyone is in a rush –often under pressure. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going, restlessly seeking attention in a store, or elbowing others as they try to complete their shopping. Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country. Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating-places are waiting for you to finish so they, too, can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. You also find drivers will be abrupt and people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small exchanges with strangers. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain appropriate point.Unit 2: Para 20-21Last summer, I returned to visit Nikolai. He made me tea--- and did the dishes! We talked while sitting on his couch. Missing the Olympic Team the previous year had made me pause and reflect on what I had gained—not the least of which was a quiet , indissoluble bond with a short man in a tropical shirt.Nikolai taught me to have the courage, heart, and discipline to persist, even if it takes a billion tries. He taught me to be thankful in advance for a century of life on earth, and to remind myself every day that despite the challenges at hand, “Now must be love, love, love.”Unit 3: Para 4We wanted to avoid the mistake made by many couples of marrying for the wrong reasons, and only finding out ten, twenty, or thirty years later that they were incompatible, that they hardly took the time to know each other, that they overlooked serious personality conflicts in the expectation that marriage was an automatic way to make everything work out right. That point was emphasized by the fact that Gail’s parents, after thirty-five years of marriage were going through a bitter and painful divorce, which had destroyed Gail and for a time had a negative effect on our budding relationship.Unit 4: Para 4But when he asked her for a photo, she declined his request. She explained her objection:”If your feelings for me have any reality, any honest basis, what I look like won’t matter. Suppose I’m beautiful. I’d always be bothered by the feeling that you loved me for my beauty, and that kind of love would disgust me. Suppose I’m plain. Then I’d always fear you were writing to me only because you were lonely and had no one else. Either way, I would forbid myself from loving you. When you come to New York and you see me, then you can make your decision. Remember , both of us are free to stop or go on after that—if that’s what we choose.---“Unit 5: Para 5My father died from “the poor man’s friend”, pneumonia, one hard winter when his lung illnesses had left him low. I doubt he had much lung left at all, after coughing for so many years. He had so little breath that, during his last years, he was always leaning on something. I remembered once, at a family reunion, when my daughter was two, that my father picked her up for a minute—long enough for me to photograph them—but the effort was obvious. Near the very end of his life, and largely because he had no more lungs, he quit smoking. He gained a couple of pounds, but by then he was so slim that no one noticed.Unit 6: 1-2For her first twenty-four years, she’s been known as Debbie—a name that didn’t suit her good looks and elegant manner. “My name has always made me think I should be a cook,”she complained. “I just don’t feel like a Debbie.”One day, while filling out an application form for a publishing job, the young woman impulsively substituted her middle name, Lynn, for her first name Debbie. “That was the smartest thing I ever did,” she says now, “As soon as I stopped calling myself Debbie, I felt more comfortable with myself--- and other people started to take my more seriously.” Two years after her successful job interview, the former waitress is now a successful magazine editor. Friends and associates call her Lynne.Unit 7: Para 8-9For many people, the root of their stress is anger, and the trick is to find out where the anger is coming from. “Does the anger come from a feeling that everything must be perfect?” Eliot asks.“That’s very common in professional women. They feel they have to be all things to all people and do it all perfectly. They think, “I should, I must, I have to” Good enough is never good enough. Perfectionists cannot delegate. They get angry that they have to carry it all, and they blow their tops. Then they feel guilty and they start the whole cycle over again.”II、翻译练习的参考答案Unit one :1、她连水都不愿意喝一口，更别提留下来吃晚饭了。

新视野英语第二册课文翻译新视野英语第二册课文翻译如果您想要新视野英语第二册课文翻译，来这里就对了，下面已经整理好了以下翻译资料，希望对您有帮助~Unit 1An impressive English lesson1 If I am the only parent who still corrects his child's English, then perhaps my son is right. To him, I am a tedious oddity: a father he is obliged to listen to and a man absorbed in the rules of grammar, which my son seems allergic to.2 I think I got serious about this only recently when I ran into one of my former students, fresh from an excursion to Europe. "How was it?" I asked, full of earnest anticipation.3 She nodded three or four times, searched the heavens for the right words, and then exclaimed, "It was, like, whoa!"4 And that was it. The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture were captured in a condensed non-statement. My student's "whoa!" was exceeded only by my head-shaking distress.5 There are many different stories about the downturn in the proper use of English. Surely students should be able to distinguish between their/there/they're or the distinctive difference between complimentary and complementary. They unfairly bear the bulk of the criticism for these knowledge deficits because there is a sense that they should know better.6 Students are not dumb, but they are being misled everywhere they look and listen. For example, signs in grocery stores point them to the stationary, even though the actual stationery items — pads, albums and notebooks — are not naileddown. Friends and loved ones often proclaim they've just ate when, in fact, they've just eaten. Therefore, it doesn't make any sense to criticize our students.7 Blame for the scandal of this language deficit should be thrust upon our schools, which should be setting high standards of English language proficiency. Instead, they only teach a little grammar and even less advanced vocabulary. Moreover, the younger teachers themselves evidently have little knowledge of these vital structures of language because they also went without exposure to them. Schools fail to adequately teach the essential framework of language, accurate grammar and proper vocabulary, while they should take the responsibility of pushing the young onto the path of competent communication.8 Since grammar is boring to most of the young students, I think that it must be handled delicately, step by step. The chance came when one day I was driving with my son. As we set out on our trip, he noticed a bird in jerky flight and said, "It's flying so unsteady." I carefully asked, "My son, how is the bird flying?" "What's wrong? Did I say anything incorrectly?" He got lost. "Great! You said incorrectly instead of incorrect. We use adverbs to describe verbs. Therefore, it's flying so unsteadily but not so unsteady."9 Curious about my correction, he asked me what an adverb was. Slowly, I said, "It's a word that tells you something about a verb." It led to his asking me what a verb was. I explained, "Verbs are action words; for example, Dad drives the truck. Drive is the verb because it's the thing Dad is doing."10 He became attracted to the idea of action words, so we listed a few more: fly, swim, dive, run. Then, out of his own curiosity, he asked me if other words had names for their use andfunctions. This led to a discussion of nouns, adjectives, and articles. Within the span of a 10-minute drive, he had learned from scratch to the major parts of speech in a sentence. It was painless learning and great fun!11 Perhaps, language should be looked upon as a road map and a valuable possession: often study the road map (check grammar) and tune up the car engine (adjust vocabulary). Learning grammar and a good vocabulary is just like driving witha road map in a well-conditioned car.12 The road map provides the framework and guidance you need for your trip, but it won't tell you exactly what trees or flowers you will see, what kind of people you will encounter, or what types of feelings you will be experiencing on your journey. Here, the vocabulary makes the journey's true colors come alive!A good vocabulary enables you to enjoy whatever you see as you drive along. Equipped with grammar and a good vocabulary, you have flexibility and excellent control. While the road map guides your journey to your destination, an excellent vehicle helps you to fully enjoy all of the sights, sounds and experiences along the way.13 Effective, precise, and beneficial communication depends upon grammar and a good vocabulary, the two essential assets for students, but they are not being taught in schools.14 Just this morning, my son and I were eating breakfast when I attempted to add milk to my tea. "Dad," he said, "If I were you, I wouldn't do that. It's sour."15 "Oh my!" I said, swelling with pride toward my son, "That'sa grammatically perfect sentence. You used were instead of was."16 "I know, I know," he said with a long agreeable sigh. "It's the subjunctive mood."17 I was, like, whoa!Translation一堂难忘的英语课1 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。

Many people have good memories of that oldMcDonald's.Thesepeople are angry that the building is now in danger of being destroyed, along with their memories.
One year, people wear hats and blue jeans; they drink white wine and eat at Japanese restaurants; for exercise they run several miles aday.Thenext year, however, everything haschanged:womenwear long skirts; people drink expensive water from France, and eat at Italian restaurants; everyone seems to be exercising at health clubs.
To local historians, this explanation makes total sense. One historian said, "We should not rewrite the past. Ray Kroc did not invent McDonald's. The McDonald brothers did."

II. Listening Skills1. W: From what I can remember, the director asked us to rehearse this a hundred times.M: One hundred times? Is the director out of his mind?Q: What does the man imply?2. M: Do you think we have made enough food for the party?W: The refrigerator is about to explode.Q: What does the woman imply?3. W: She said she might become a famous movie star.M: Yes, and pigs might fly.Q: What does the man mean?4. M: So if you give me 20 dollars for three tickets, I can give you eight dollars change.W: Oh, that‟s cheaper than I expected.Q: How much is a ticket?5. W: She‟s the best woman director ever. I‟ve seen all her movies.M: Are you sure? She‟s never won any awards.Q: What does the man mean?1. A2.D3.B4.C5.BIII. Listening InTask 1: Finally, we‟ve found something in commonAmy: What did you think of the movie, Peter? Did you like it?Peter: Not really, Amy. It seemed that the director was just trying hard to impress us with strange close-ups and special sound effects, but he forgot to include a good story.Amy: The movie made you think. It was different from the superficial dialogs you usually see in films these days.Peter: But the movie seemed to be too dark and sad. Why does a movie have to be sad to be deep? Amy: But it is better than some violent movies with nothing but gunfights and exploding cars. I prefer thought-provoking movies.Peter: Soemtimes you don‟t want to think. You just want light-hearted movies. By the way, did you see the new mystery movie shown at the local cinema yesterday?Amy: Oh, it was so suspenseful. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.Peter: I loved it too. The plot was great, and the acting was unbelievable.Amy: Now we‟ve found something in common. I guess we can watch mysteries together in the future.Task 2: An actor forgetting his lineThere was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After several years of searching, he finally found a theater that was willing to give him a try. The director said, “This is the most important part, and it has only one line. At the opening you walk onto stage carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, smell it deeply and then say the line on praise of the rose: …Ah, the sweet smell of my love.‟” The actor was excited. All day long before the play he practiced his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, looked at the audience, and with great emotion said the line, “Ah, the sweet smell of my love.” The audience exploded in laughter. Only the director was furious! “Ahhhhhh! You damned fool!”he cried. “You‟ve ruined my play! You‟ve ruined me!”The actor was puzzled, “What happened? Did I forget my line?”“No!” shouted the director. “You forget the rose!”1.D2.C3.D4.A5.BTask 3: The Academy AwardsThe Academy Awards, popularly known as the Oscars, are presented every year by the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to recognize excellent professionals in the film industry, including directors, actors, and writers.The formal ceremony at which the awards are presented is one of the most important award ceremonies in the world. It is televised live in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and gathers large numbers of viewers elsewhere throughout the world. This year‟s ceremony was watched by more than 40 million Americans. It is said that only the Super Bowl, the Olympic opening Ceremonies, and the Football World Cup Final draw more viewers in the United States. However, the Academy Awards are not without criticism. It has been observed that several of the Academy Award winners have not stood the test of time. Critics claim that many films with artistic value, cultural influence and innovative qualities have not received enough attention. Since the 1980s, money-making blockbusters have often been Best Picture winners, but they are not necessarily great films with depth. The Academy Awards have also been criticized for favoring certain types of films and neglecting other types. The Best Picture prize has rarely been given to an animated film or a science fiction film, with Avatar as an exception.IV. Speaking OutModel 1 Will you come with me?John: Laura, I am wondering if you‟re free tomorrow night.Laura: Well, I guess I am. Why?John: I‟ve got two Star Wars premiere tickets. Will you come with me?Laura: Yeah, definitely! Thanks for inviting me!John: It‟s my pleasure.Laura: I really wanted to see Star Wars on the opening night, but the tickets were sold out. How did you manage to get hold of them?John: A friend of mine works at the “Pepsi” headquarters, which is a major sponsor of the movie.So he was able to get the tickets for free.Laura: Wow, people are paying as much as $200 each on the black market. I‟m flattered you went through all this trouble just for me.John: You‟re welcome.Model 2 What did you think about the movie?John: So…what did you think about the movie?Laura: Well… I think this Star Wars episode is an excellent piece of work, but not as good as the previous ones.John: Really? But I think this Star Wars episode was incredible!Laura: Why do you think so?John: Well, one of the most spectacular things about it was the special effects. State-of-the-art special effects were the main reason for the success of the previous episodes.Laura: You‟re right. The special effects were amazing! And I like the fact that they created so many fantastic settings and other-worldly costumes, weapons and creatures.Model 3 The plot is first-class.John: It‟s kind of cool that they still used the same Star Wars theme song for this movie. Laura: Yeah! It just reminds me of the previous Star Wars scenes.John: I know exactly what you mean! Hearing that song makes me think of the past.Laura: I think the plot was first-class. But I don‟t think the character development was that strong.John: Do you think that has anything to do with the casting of the movie?Laura: No, the casting was great; the actors are excellent, but I think the acting was a little weak.They just didn‟t have a lot of funny or meaningful lines.John: Well, maybe, but I liked the little kid that played “Skywalker”. I can‟t imagine anyone else playing that part.Laura: Yeah, I liked him too. He‟s soooo cute!V. Let‟s TalkAlfred HitchcockAlfred Hitchcock was a British director. His movies frequently show innocent people caught up in situations beyond their control or even understanding.Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense in his movies. In surprise, the director provides the viewer with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the movie do not know, and then skillfully builds up tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth. Hitchcock had a great sense of humor. Once at a French airport, a suspicious customs official looked at Hitchcock‟s passport, which was marked simply PRODUCER. The curious official asked, “And what do you produce?”“Gooseflesh.”replied Hitchcock.Alfred Hitchcock always managed to make a brief appearance in his movies: He was sometimesgetting on a bus, or crossing a street, pr walking in front of a store, or across the courtyard in an apartment. However, for the movie Lifeboat in 1944, he was faced with a difficult problem. The entire movie was set in a lifeboat out at sea, and there were only a few characters in the boat. Originally, he wanted to float by as a dead body, but he was afraid he‟d sink! His clever solution was to place a photograph of himself in a newspaper that one of the characters read during the course of the movie.1. A2.C3.DVI. Furthering Listening and Speaking ListeningTask 1: Only One LinePeter has always wanted to be an actor, but never succeeded because he had a hard time memorizing lines. A friend of his told him about a small part in a play. He promised Peter that he could do it because he‟s only have to remember one line. Peter decided to take the part. His only line was, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Peter practiced and practiced, “Listen, I hear the guns roar!” On the opening night of the play Peter was very nervous. Backstage, he practiced his line, over and over again, “Listen, I hear the guns roar! Listen, I hear the guns roar!” Finally came his turn, Peter went onto stage. He heard a loud BOOM and cried out in spite of himself, “WHAT THE HELL WAS THA T?”1.memorizing lines2.remember one line3.I hear the guns roar4. a loud boom5.forgot his lineTask 2: Movie ReviewsI love movies! And after I see them, I like to comment on them. These are movies I saw this year I would like to recommend: Among comedies I highly recommend “Monsoon Wedding”. It‟s an Indian movie. The story is about an Indian wedding. Preparations for the wedding bring out funny and sad situations touching on love and a past rape. This movie shows some of the wonderful customs of India, and the importance of family and love. It‟s great!Among dramas, I like “Adaptation”. It is an excellent movie! But for me the first part of the movie was too fast to follow. I hope to see it again on DVD with captions.“The Pianist” is set in the Second World War. It‟s about a young Polish-Jewish pianist, who lives in Warsaw with his family. The Nazis sent his family to die in the concentration camps. He was safe, but would have died without unusually good luck and the kindness of a few non-Jews. This is a powerful movie with thought-provoking themes.“Rabbit-Proof Fence” is set in the 1930s in Australia, and it‟s based on real events. It is about three native girls who are separated from their families by the racist police who send them to special centers. There the girls are taught practical skills, and the government tries to integrate them intowhite Australian society. They can away from the camp and walked 1,500 miles to find their mothers. This is a sad, touching story that you should not miss.Task 3: The Secret of the Next Harry Potter BookLisa: What kind of movie do you want to see, Nick?Nick: I really want to see Monster Night, the horror movie advertised in newspapers.Lisa: Monster Night? It sounds scary. I don‟t like horror films.Nick: OK. It‟s not yet in theatres anyway. It won‟t be coming out until next week. What movies are palying now?Lisa: Let me check… There‟s an action film starring Jet Li, and … Monster Night! It‟s already in theaters.Nick: What? It is? Which theater is it playing at?Lisa: It‟s showing at the theater in the mall. But I really don‟t want to see it.Nick: All the critics have given Monster night great reviews. What time is the next showing? Lisa: Well, if we hurry, we can make the three o‟clock show. The show after that is at 4:30. But I‟m too frightened to see this one.Nick: Come on, Lisa! Don‟t be a chicken. Let‟s go! We have to get tickets before they sell out! SpeakingViews on MoviesInterviewer: Hello, Robert and Richard, I‟d like to ask you something about movies. Do you prefer going to the theater or watching movies on video at home?Robert: I prefer, personally, going to the theater, because I believe there are certain movies that come over better when you see them in a large theater. The sound effect is muchbetter.Interviewer: What about you, Richard?Richard: Just the opposite. It‟s more comfortable to sit at home.Interviewer: There‟re many different movie genres, for example, science fiction, action, comedy, romance. What‟s your personal favorite?Robert: My favorite would be action movies.Richard: And mine would be nice movies that touch me deeply.Interviewer: How do you like the old black and white movies of the forties, and fifties compared with the modern blockbusters?Robert: For their time, the movies of the forties and fifties were excellent. But try to compare them with today‟s technology, and you‟ll find there isn‟t anything to compare. It‟s sosuperior today.Richard: I agree.。

Time Time Time is is is one one one of of of the the the two two elements that Americans save carefully, the other being labor. "We are slaves to nothing but the clock," it has been said. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. We budget it, save it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; we also charge for it. It is a precious resource Many Many people people people have have have a a a rather rather rather acute acute acute sense sense sense of of of the the the shortness shortness shortness of of of each each each lifetime. lifetime. lifetime.

Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country. Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating-places are waiting for you to finish so they, too, can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. You also find drivers will be abrupt and people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small exchanges with strangers. Don't take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else "wasting" it beyond a certain appropriate point. Many new arrivals in the States will miss the opening exchanges of a business call, for example. They will miss the ritual interaction that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee that may be a convention in their own country. country.

Normally, house. Normally, Americans Americans do do do not not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over extended small talk; much less do they take them out for dinner, or around on the golf course while they develop a sense of trust. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly. Time is, therefore, always ticking in our inner ear. Consequently, we work hard at the task of saving time. We produce a steady flow of labor-saving devices; we we communicate communicate communicate rapidly rapidly rapidly through through through faxes, faxes, faxes, phone phone phone calls calls calls or or or emails emails emails rather rather rather than than than through through through personal personal personal contacts, contacts, contacts, which which though though pleasant, pleasant, pleasant, take take take longer longer longer——especially especially given given given our our our traffic-filled traffic-filled traffic-filled streets. streets. streets.

In America, too, a final agreement will normally be signed in person. However, people are meeting increasingly on television screens, conducting "teleconferences" to settle problems not only in this country but also also——by satellite—internationally.

新视野英语2课文翻译Unit1My motherIn my eyes, my mother is the most beautiful woman in the world. Her eyes are as clear and bright as the night sky, and whenever she smileds, they would glow up and shine like a million twinkling stars. Nobody could possibly stay angry or depressed under such a smile, and even a heart of stone would crumble under her shine.She is also the gentlest person alive. Once, when I scraped my knee by accident, she flew like a wirlwind to my side, and took out a piece of alcohol swab to clean the cut. It stung like I was being bit by a bee, so she started blowing the red rash on my knee. The light gust of wind coming out of her mouth soothed the pain, and suddenly I had the courage to stand up again. I looked up into her eyes, eyes filled with concentration and gentleness.I want to thank you for your careful care. You have taught me how to study. You also taught how to be a good person. You have a really busy job. But you always help me with my homework. You should rest at home at weekends. But you always take me to the places I want to go. You are the best mother in the world. I am happy that I can be you child.I love my mother for all that she has given me, and always will.My FatherMy father is a kind man. He is not very tall but he is a man of perseverance. He works very hard and his services are highly appreciated.My father is a man of devotion. Every morning he gets upthe earliest to make breakfast for us. In the evening, he is always the late to come back home. At weekends, he always takes us to go outing in his car. He is a man of few words, but he often says to me "A little learning is a dangerous thing". I will always remember these words.He always makes use of his wit and humor to relax tense situation at work. He is m humorous that his colleagues and friends all enjoy staying with him. He also uses humor to create a very happy family atmosphere.I love my father very muchUnit3winnerEvery body wants to succeed. Maybe you're not so cute.Maybe you're not so rich.Maybe you're in trouble……No matter how you are ,everyone is the winner. If you are going through a task,try your best and then you are the winner.If you lose your confidence by accident,never put out the flame of hopeness and then you are the winner.If you are depress,try to face the challenges.The wonderful rainbow always appears after storm.HOID ON,and let us be the winner.Not just a happy experience ,a special memory ,or an excellent feeling ,winning is a long journey which contains danger, sadness, fortune and many other things. To get to the destination, we still have much to learn .therefore , guys, come on .strive every nerve to make an attempt, whatever happens,have faith in yourself , a bright future is waiting for you.Unit7Dining Customs in ChinaEvery country has its own peculiar dining customs. The Chinese feel that the first rule of being a courteous guest is to be modest. When a person is invited to dinner, he will decline first because he is afraid it will give the host and hostess a lot oftrouble preparing for it. As the host keeps inviting him, he will then accept it. Usually the guest will bring some gifts to the host, such as fruit, flowers and wine. the host will immediately protest h is doing so by saying, “You shouldn't have brought the gifts. You are too polite and generous! ”Before the dinner, the guests and the host all sit at the table and start chatting. Usually the hostess is busy preparing dishes. The host offers something such as tea, sunflower seeds, and fruit. The guests always say, “No, no, please don’t bother, I am not thirsty.” or “I will help myself to them.”The dinner will begin when everybody is present and the guests are invited to sit down first. When the dinner begins, The host often says to the guests , “ Please help yourselves .” The guests usually say , “ OK! OK!” The host starts the dinner first and the others follow. The host or hostess will bring food to the bowls of their guests to encourage them to eat as much as they can. The guests will say “No, no, you don’t have to bother” or “I will help myself” at the beginning and will let the host or hostess do so later on. At a Chin ese table a guest should not eat too quickly to finish eating. The Chinese like to talk with each other during the dinner. If someone eats without speaking to anyone else, he is considered unfriendly or impolite.At the end of dinner, if someone wants to leave the table, he should apologize to others for not being able to accompany them to the end and at the same time ask them to eat slowly. When the dinner is over, the guests will offer to help with the cleaning, but of course, the host and hostess will not let them do so. Instead, they will ask the guests to watch TV, drink tea, and sometimes to play cards or Mahjong. After some time, the guests will leave, and it is customary for the host to see the guests off.The guests try to discourage them from doing so. The guests will invite the host to their home in order to return the favor.Unit10How to Manage StressAs university students, we are lucky to have a chance to learn more things. And college life is beautiful. But college is not st udents’ paradise. We must face many difficulties which come from not only our study, but also our daily lives. These difficulties b ear down on us with the weight of Mount Tai. The stress is harmful to students’ health. We must manage it. Here is how: You can speak out or write down your stress. When you are depressed, you can tell one of your intimate friends all your troubles. Then he or she will giveyou a few words of comfort. You will feel better after that. Also you can write down all your troubles, and read them again and again. When you are bored with them, you will worry less about them.If you don’t like speaking or writing, y ou can go out with your friends. You can go camping, fishing, swimming, skating and things like that. But you must throw yourself into it. Then you will be happy and forget all your stress. You may be tired after that, and you will sleep like a log till broad daylight. The next day, everything will be all right.Remember that stress is dangerous to your health, but you can mange it. Why not start now?How to Stay HealthyNow we are all far away from our families, so a healthy body is crucial for us. But how do we stay healthy? The following is my opinion.Firstly, develop good living habits. At the proper time do theproper things, such as eating, sleeping, exercising, and study ing. Keep at it, and you’ll do more and better things within a limited time. Secondly, exercise is a traditional way to keep healthy and it is extremely effective. Being students, we have to sit at our desks for most of the day.If we don’t spare some time for exercise, fat as well as some toxic substances will accumulate in our body, and cause us much trouble. In addition, exercise is a good way for us to release our emotions. There are so many unpleasant things on campus that we have to taste all kinds of bitterness. When you feel depressed, you may go to the playground and run as fas t as possible. When you feel tired, you’ll find that bitterness is merely a piece of cake. The future is still splendid.Outside the family, we have to adjust ourselves to new conditions all the time. We should remember that it is the greatest pleasure for our parents to see us in good health.Emotions and HealthEveryone wants to be healthy, but what affects health? Health is connected not only with food, but also with emotions.There is an old saying: Laughter is the best medicine. Experiments show that w hen one is angry, there are various kinds o toxic substances produced in the blood. It can do great harm to one’s health. Mos t people who live long are often in a good mood. And they are mostly optimists or realists.Many doctors and psychologists now real ize that good emotions sometimes can be of more help to one’s health than medicine. If a patient always thinks that he is sur e to die, how can he try to fight off his disease?“Smile a happy smile and one will be ten years younger.” That may be a bit exag gerated. But emotions really havesomething to do with health.Unit6I have a good friend. Her name is Amy. She likes fruit is many. She likes to have banana, apple, pear, orange, strawberry. I like apple, orange, strawberry. I like vegetables are tomatoes, carrots and salad. I don't like broccoli. She likes salad. She doesn't like carrots and broccoli。
新视野英语2第二单元作文
新视野英语2第二单元作文Paragraph 1:Wow, I can't believe it's already the second unit of New Horizon English 2! Time really flies. I remember when we started this course, I was a bit nervous about learning a new language. But now, I feel more confident and excited about improving my English skills.Paragraph 2:Speaking of English skills, I have to say thatlistening is something I struggle with sometimes. It's not easy to understand native speakers, especially when they speak fast or use slang. But I'm determined to improve, so I've been listening to English podcasts and watching movies without subtitles. It's challenging, but I know it will pay off in the long run.Paragraph 3:Grammar is another area that I find challenging. There are so many rules to remember, and sometimes it feels overwhelming. However, I've found that practicing with exercises and doing grammar drills can be really helpful.It's like solving puzzles, and it's satisfying when Ifinally understand a concept or rule.Paragraph 4:Vocabulary is something I enjoy learning. I love discovering new words and finding ways to use them in my daily life. It's like building a puzzle, finding the right word to express my thoughts or feelings. I've been using flashcards and online resources to expand my vocabulary, and it's been a fun and rewarding experience.Paragraph 5:One aspect of English that I find fascinating is idioms and expressions. They add color and depth to the language, and I love learning their meanings and origins. It's likeunraveling a mystery, trying to understand the hidden meanings behind these phrases. Plus, using idioms in conversations makes me feel more like a native speaker.Paragraph 6:Writing is something I've always enjoyed, and English writing is no exception. It allows me to express my thoughts and ideas in a creative way. I've been practicing by writing short stories and journal entries in English. It's a great way to improve my writing skills and explore different writing styles.Paragraph 7:Finally, speaking is the ultimate goal for many language learners, including myself. It's the ability to communicate with others and express myself fluently. I've been practicing speaking with native speakers and participating in language exchange programs. It can be nerve-wracking at times, but it's also exciting to see my progress and gain confidence in my speaking abilities.Conclusion:Learning a new language is a journey full of challenges and rewards. Each aspect of English listening, grammar, vocabulary, idioms, writing, and speaking presents its own unique set of difficulties and joys. But with determination and practice, I know I can become fluent in English and open up a world of opportunities.。
