新视野大学英语1第三版读写教程答案1-5 Part II key to exercisesSection APre-reading activities11B 2D 3C 4A 5E31 In fact all the pieces of advice mentioned in the interview are very useful. But if I have t choose one as the most useful, I’d choose “keep a balance”. When we were in high school, we spent almost all our time studying. There lacked a balance between social life and academic life in high school. It’s important to keep a balance between life and work because it will give us a sound mind in a sound body. Now we have much more free time, so we can join student organizations or go to different activities.2 Before I left for college my parents did have a talk with me. They told me how important college experience would be in my life. They told me about the opportunities that college education would open up to me. They told me to try to develop more interests and join some student clubs. The most impressive advice they gave me was that I should not only read books about my major; instead, they advised me to read as widely as possible. All these are very valuable pieces of advice.Scripts:Sarah: Hi I’m Sarah. I’m a student advisor at a university. I know the first year of college is always difficult. You have to adapt to a new environment, and learn to do everything on your own. To help make your transition just a little easier, I’m going to interview some senior students on campus let’s see what advice they can give you.Sarah: Hi Jennifer. What do you think is important to a freshman?Jennifer: I think it is very important to go to class regularly. It sounds easy, but oversleeping and missing that 8 o’clock morning class is very common. Try to go to class on time and regularly. You will learn the material in class, get to know the professors, and make friends with your classmates. You will also get important information from the professors about tests and exams.Sarah: Mark, do you agree with Jennifer?Mark: Absolutely. My advice is: Find a good place to study. It may be your dorm room or a corner of the library or a quiet classroom, but find a place that works best for you to get your work done. If you have trouble concentrating in your dorm, you need to find another place.Sarah: Nancy, what is our advice for freshmen?Nancy: “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” My advice is to get involved on campus. A big problem for a lot of new students is that they miss home and they don't have a sense of belonging. The solution is to join a student organization, or a club, or a sports team. You will make new friends, learn new skills, and feel more connected to your school.Sarah: Excellent advice, Nancy. Simon, it seems you have something to say.Simon: Yes, I do. Well, I want to say you should keep a balance. College life is a mixture of social life and academic li fe. Don’t join too many student organizations or go to too many activities. Otherwise, you won’t have enough time to study. Of course, you should not become a book worm. The key is to keep a balance between fun and study.Sarah: They all give very useful tips. But let me add a few more. Take responsibility for yourself and your actions; take advantage of the learning resources on campus; stay healthy and eat right.I hope you will get the most out of your college experience.Reading comprehensionUnderstanding the text11. The parents reminded their children to work hard and achieve the best they could.2. The president calls on the students to make the most of the great resources on campus: to explore new subjects, to meet fascinating people, and to pursue new passions.3. By saying “sample them widely”, the president mean students should try may different courses and try something new to see what it is like.4. If we don’t challenge ourselves, we will not become broadly educated people, and we may not find the passion that will help us shape our future.5. We can learn from the example of Vera Wang that we should challenge ourselves and by challenging ourselves, we are more likely to find an interest we don’t know we have, and this interest may help us build a prosperous future.6. W should not worry, and we should learn to face this new part of our life with enthusiasm. College experiences, pleasant or unpleasant, will provide us with valuable lessons which will enrich our life.7. The expression Now it is your turn” means that now it is time for you to acquire knowledge and to pass it on.8. The president’s welcoming speech is really impressive. He mentions many important things about college life , the resources available on campus, as well as the opportunities we have and the responsibilities we should take. The speech is very inspiring.Critical thinking1. A university education will play a very important role in my life, and it will benefit me in anumber of ways. In the university I can acquire specialized knowledge about my major, and develop critical thinking and research skills. I will have the opportunities to meet and share ideas withpeople of different minds. I can gain a broader view of the world by meeting people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. And I will start my life journey of self-discovery, self-improvement, andself-fulfillment.2.Yes, absolutely. With a university education, a person will have more freedom and thereforemore choices. This education experience provides unlimited potential. Moreover, a university education provides the means for one to succeed. Not only will a person obtain knowledge and skills essential for his career development, but he will also develop an independent mind and be able to make right decisions on his own.3.I admire those who dropped out of university and yet have made fame for themselves byachieving big goals. Some people use those successful college dropouts as counterexamples to show their belief that a person can succeed even without a university education. Chances are that most people do not have the same mind, talent, determination, or opportunities as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg did; therefore, they might not be able to achieve success without having a university education. In fact, a university education will equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills which will help them to succeed.4.Nowadays education is getting more and more expensive, especially college education. Andthere are people who choose to give up education because of the high cost. But without education, one would not be able to acquire knowledge that an education will offer. In other words, they would be “ignorant”. The result would be that ignorant people will suffer even more or pay even more for being so. It is true that education is expensive, but if you try “ignorance”, the cost would be even higher5.To sample widely and challenge my self, I am going to venture out of my comfort zone and dowhat I have not had the courage to do. For instance, I will make friends with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. I will take a swimming class and learn how to swim. I wil attend unconventionallectures, join student clubs, and try all kinds of food. Most of all, I will do whatever it takes to make the most of the four years and try to become a well-rounded graduate.Language focusWords in use31 confidence2 explore3 emerged4 assume5 pose6 comprehensive7 resources 8 yield 9 inherited 10 transmitWord building4Words learned new words formed-uncover uncovereasy uneasy load unload-antapply applicant resist resistant account accountant -ifysimple amplify note notify quality qualify class classify51.classified2.assist3.resistant4.uncovered5.uneasy6.qualify7.unloading8.applicants9.simplified10.accountant11.notifiedbanked cloze61 D2 H 3A 4B 5M 6 F 7O 8 I 9 G 10 J Expressions in use71.got by2.make the most of3.in advance4.over time5.reap the benefits of6.all at once7.remind… of8.stand a chance of9.open the door to10.take pleasure insection Breading skills11. A2. A3. C4.B, C, EReading comprehensionUnderstanding the text3.1 The father is happy that his child is going to college and will have new exciting experiences. Meantime, the father feels sad to see the child leave.2. Because it is in college that the child will find out what learning is about.3. The statement “Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school” was made by Einstein. It means that the details you have learned or the facts you have remembered are not important. What is really important is the fact that you have learned how to learn and that you have developed a way of thinking and a sense of responsibility.4. the father thinks his child should take courses that will stimulate his interest and improve his intellectual capacity.5. what Steve Jobs meant was that in college, your passion will guide you to learn a lot of new and seemingly unconnected things; but later, those unconnected things will become connected and help you build your life and career.6. the father warns his child not to be upset by low grades. They are only letters and are not important.7. Genuine and sincere people can become our friends.8. The father is eager to see what his child will develop into, and what achievements his child will make in the future.Critical thinking41.I felt somewhat sad when the time came for me to leave my parents for college because I hadto leave them for the first time in my life. I missed all the comforts they provide for me at home. But in the meanwhile, I felt excited about my new experience of living on campus. For me, living on my own was an indication of independence and responsibilities. I was looking forward to this new and exciting leg of my life journey.2.My parents expect me to try my best in all aspects. They said to me when I left home forcollege, “Doing your best does not just mean you have to get straight A’s. it means you should work as hard as you can, develop and flourish socially, and enjoy life fully.” They have very highexpectations of me because they believe in me. They know that I have the motivation and ability to achieve the goals I have set.3..I like to be friends with people who have similar hobbies to mine. If we have similar hobbies,we will have a lot to talk about with each other. I also like to make friends with outgoingpeople because I am very shy.. I only make friends with people who are honest, polite and sincere. I don’t care whether we share similar ho bbies or interests or not. As long as he/she is a nice person, I’ll be happy to be friends with him/her.4.Actually, I think almost all courses can stimulate our intellectual capacity. To some people,courses that require them to solve problems, such as math, physics, and enginerring, can enhance their intellectual capacity. But to other people their intellectual capacity can be developed more by courses like music, philosophy, or literature, because they have to use their brainpower to think and seek answers since there are no right or wrong answers to many questions in these fields. Personally, I think learning something new will definitely stimulate my intellectual capacity, so I’m going to take some courses both in arts and science.5.When I was a kid, my parents had to word away from home, so I had to stay with my relativesfor four years without my parents being around. As a result, I have learned to be very adaptable. Now, I an study and live in different environments. Being able to adapt is thus one of my dots.Language focus51.stimulate2.potential3.cultivate4.instinct5.confident6.assured7.curiosity8.participate9.approach10.capacity expressions in use 61.into2.like3.to4.up5.to6.up7.off8.insentence structure 71.Some people have pets and regard them as friends while other people dislike pets and thinkthey may cause diseases.\2.Jerry is very bold and likes taking risks while his brother is extremely careful and thinks thingsthrough before doing anything.3.Beijing is a busy city with a large population while my hometown is very quiet with a smallpopulation.81.It is Sam that/who thinks that the greatest achievement of last century was the landing ofmankind on the moon.2.It was during my undergraduate studies that I found out what my passion was.3.It is the curiosity and creativity of children that causes many educators to believe thatteaching should stimulate children’s interest in learning.Collocation91.make2.make3.do4.make5.make6.do7.do8.do新视野大学英语1第三版读写教程答案U2Part II key to exercisesSection APre-reading activities2.1. I am very close to my parents. In fact, we are like friends. I never keep a secret from them. When I have problems, I ask them for their advice. They give me directions about life. I like this relationship with my parents, and I think this is what parent-child relationship should be like.2. if I were not very close to my parents, I would do the following to improve our relationship:. find out where the problem is and talk to my parents about it;. do something that makes them happy;. call them often when I am away from home;. keep them informed of what I am doing;. be open and willing to communicate.Reading comprehensionUnderstanding the text1.The daughter bought a large and expensive vehicle probably because her mother advised herto buy a practical and gas-efficient car. The daughter did this on purpose because at this age, she was being rebellious.2.The mother wants to show that although her daughter tries to show she is an adult, actuallyshe is not.3.The mother is hap that their daughter is dependent now, but on the other hand, she feelsdoubtful whether her daughter could take good care of herself.4.The mother wants to show that her daughter is not ready t e an adult yet.5.The mothe r puts her daughter’s books onto a single shelf to deal with later.6.The mother finds an envelope with items such as old family photographs, letters, greetingcards, and love notes they gave their daughter and sees the words “DO NOT THROW AWAY”marked on the envelope. Her attitude then changes.7.At first the mother decides to throw some of the items away and donate the rest to charity.After she sees the brown envelope, she changes her mind and puts the back in place.8.Because the mother knows that the sweet childhood memories will bring her daughter back.Critical thinking1.If I were the daughter, I would be very much touched when I read the article. I would call mymom to say sorry for acting rebelliously and would tell her how much I love her. Probably I would return home as soon as I can.2.I don’t think it is wise to refuse parents’advice or even do the opposite without a goodreason. Your parents care about you more than anybody else and always want to share their experience with you. If you follow their advice, you can at least learn from their experience and avoid making some silly mistakes if you don’t take their advice, you may still get experience-but in a hard way. Besides, your parents may directly point out our weaknesses that your peers w ouldn’t. so, listening to your parents’ advice can make you smarter and help you grow mature.3.Good communication will, in my view, help build a good relationship the following are myways to strengthen communication with my parents:. visit them whenever possible;. invite them to see what I am doing at college;. teach them to use new communication tools, such as WeChat and Skype, so that they can communicate with me wherever I am;. try to look at things from their perspectives; and. share with them my feelings, problems or ambitions.4.Although there is no standard pattern for a good parent-child relationship , some common。

第三版《大学英语》1一课一练Unit1
大家网1/8北京联合大学大学英语课程(上外教版)一课一练试卷(I级Unit One)Part I Writing (30 minutes) 注意:此部分试题在答题卡1上。
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a paragraph of your plan to develop your listening comprehension and speaking ability at college. You should write at least 120 words. Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)(15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-7,choose the best answer from the four choices marked A),B),C)and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.How to Improve Your Study HabitsPerhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary the case, however. You can receive better grades if you want to. Yes, even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here’s how:1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments. Of course, studying shouldn’t occupy all of the free time on the schedule. It’s important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well. This weekly schedule may not solve all of your problems, but it will make you more aware of how you spend your time. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have adequate time for both work and play.2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.3. Skim before you read.This means looking over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully. As you preview the material, you get some idea of the content and how it is organized. Later when you begin to read you will recognize less important material and you may skip some of these portions. Skimming helps double your reading speed and improves your comprehension as well.4. Make good use of your time in class. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.5. Study regularly. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class. Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about. Read about these points in your textbook. If you know what the teacher will discuss the next day, skim and read that material too. This will help you understand the next class. If you review your notes and textbooks regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performance on tests.6. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry excessively about a single test. Tests provide grades, but they also let you know what you need to spend more time studying, and they help make your new knowledge permanent.There are other techniques that might help you with your studying. Only a few have been mentioned here. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. Talk with your classmates about their study techniques. Share with them some of the techniques you have found to be helpful. Improving your study habits will improve your grades.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

大学英语课程(外教社版)一课一练试卷(精读-一级)Unit 5答案Part I Writing (30 minutes)How to be a successful writerSome people believe that a writer is born but not taught. A writer should have certain gift or talent since his or her childhood. People can not be taught in school or college to be a good writer.However, other people have the opinion that being a writer doesn’t require much talent or gift. What is required is to put your heart on it and work hard toward it. You should write with honesty and emotion, in a whole-hearted way about what you truly believe instead of making up story to cheat the readers.As far as writing is concerned, I believe that writing right does require a little talent and certain knowledge of writing. Besides, diligence and devotion are dispensable part of being a good writer.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)1-7 CDAABCD8. main attraction9. wandering10. expensivePart III Listening Comprehension (30 minutes)11-15 CABBC 16-21BAB CBC22. matter 23.check 24.brown 25.trafficPart IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)26-35 DCBAE, FGHOL36-45 CBBCD DACADPart V Cloze (15 minutes)46-55.

As is known to all, it is convenient for us to click the mouse when surfing on line, either to entertain ourselves or to meet the work’s needs.On the one hand, no one denies that Internet is currently one of the most useful media in our daily life. As a college student, I get on line every day to exchange information through e-mails with my net friends. But on the other hand, a good many people admit that they are too much addicted to Internet to maintain a regular and wholesome lifestyle.Thus, it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way and restrain from overindulgence. After all,Internet is invented to enrich our life, and to improve the efficiency of our work rather than shackle us with a chain.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)1-7 BBCACDD 8. value 9.

Listen this way 听力教程第三册-5Unit 5 Meet People from around theWorldPart I Getting ready Audioscript:Presenter:Today Selina Kahn is in the arrival area at Gatwick Airport checking out today's topic -- national stereotypes. Selina ... Selinar:Thanks, John. I have with me Eric, who's just flown in with Virgin Atlantic from the USA.Eric:That's right. I've just come back from New York.Selinar:Is it as dangerous as they say?Eric:No, New York isn't dangerous, no more than any other big city, especially if you're careful and don't advertise the fact thatyou're a tourist.Selinar:And is it true what they say about New Yorkers, that they're rude, and that they only care about themselves?Eric:Well, I found the people were very friendly. However, they do have a reputation for not caring about other people. I think thereason for this is that life in New York is incredibly stressful.People just don't have the time to think about anybody else. Itisn't that they don't care.Selinar:Is there anything else you noticed about New Yorkers? Eric:Two things I had heard about before I went to New York did seem to be true, though. First is that they are always talkingabout money and how much things cost. Secondly, it's thatpeople eat all the time as they go about their daily lives, youknow they "graze on the hoof" as they walk about the streets. Selinar:Thanks Eric, and now I have with me, Sue, who's been to the south of France ...Part II New Icelanders Audioscript:New Zealand is an island country in the South Pacific Ocean about 1 200 miles southeast of Australia. It has about 2 575 000 people. Two thirds live on the North Islands, and one third on the larger South Island. Most of them are of British descent.Almost everyone in New Zealand knows how to read and write. Thegovernment provides free education for children from ages 3 to 19. Education is compulsory for children between the ages of 7 and 15, but most enter school by the age of 5. Young children who live far from schools belong to the Government Correspondence School and listen to daily school broadcasts on the radio.New Zealanders enjoy one of the highest standards of living in the world. There are no people of great wealth, but poverty is practically unknown. The majority of families live in one-story wooden homes. Most families have an automobile, and many have modern home appliances. Because the country is a major producer of sheep and dairy products, meat and butter form a larger share of the diet than is common in other countries. The people are among the world's greatest tea drinkers.Many of the books, magazines, and movies in New Zealand come from the United Kingdom or the United States. But the number of books published in the country is growing rapidly. Musical and theatrical groups come from Europe and North America to perform. The larger cities have radio and television stations. The National Symphony Orchestra gives concerts throughout the country, and there are also opera and ballet companies.New Zealanders enjoy the outdoors, and people of all ages take part in sports. Favorite holiday activities are camping, boating, hunting andfishing. Horse racing draws large crowds to racetracks. Rugby football is a national game. Other team sports are soccer, cricket, basketball, and field hockey.Statements:1. New Zealand is about 1 400 miles from Australia.2. More people live on the larger South Island than the North Island in New Zealand.3. Most New Zealanders are of British origin.4. Children in New Zealand usually go to school at the age of5.5. Not many New Zealanders have their own cars.6. New Zealanders are fond of drinking a lot of tea.Part III What do you think of Britain?Audioscript: ?Paul comes from Jamaica.Interviewer:What do you think of English food?Paul:English food -- right now, I can enjoy it, but when I first came up from the West Indies, I found it rather distasteful, rather boring,no flavor, no taste.Interviewer:What do you think of the English weather?Paul:The English weather -- I do not think there are enough adjectives to describe (it) -- miserable, cold, damp, changeable,depressing. I think bleak is the best word.Interviewer:Now what do you think about English people and their way of life?Paul:The older generation of English people are really snobbish -- the snob-nosed English. But the youth of England today -- they'rereally alive, you know, they're more vibrant, on fire, alive.They are much more free than their parents, crazy! Cindycomes from Los Angeles.Interviewer:What do you think of the English weather?Cindy:Well, it's rather cloudy and depressing. I get tired of all these "sunny intervals." There's not enough sunshine. Other than that,it's all right. It's not too cold, nor too warm.Interviewer:And have you had much opportunity to eat English food? Cindy:Yes, I avoid it, because it's dull. I think it's dull. And I think the English eat a lot of sweets and greasy food like chips. Interviewer:And what about the English way of life? What do you think of that?Cindy:Well, it's certainly more relaxed, but I think that the English people are -- tend to be -- difficult to get to know. They'rereserved. The cities are safer and I also think they're muchcleaner than the American cities, which makes it much morepleasant to live there. Usha comes from Madras, in India. Interviewer:Would you like to tell me what you think of the English weather? Usha:Well, the English weather is very changeable,but it's OK. Well, I like spring and autumn best. I think they arethe loveliest time of the year.Interviewer:And what about English food? What do you think of that?Usha:Well, English food is healthy. But I wouldn't like to haveit every day. It's rather ... I wouldn't say dull -- but too bland formy taste.Interviewer:And what about English people? How have you found them? Usha:Well, in the beginning, they are rather reserved,but once you get to know them, they are very friendly, and I'vegot many English friends now in England.Interviewer:And how have you found the English way of life?Usha:Well, city life is fast of course everywhere, but I like thecountryside very much. I like it very much, yes. Spiro comesfrom Salonika, in Greece.Interviewer:You've lived in England for about seven years. What do you think of English weather?Spiro:Well, I think the English winter is very depressing at times, especially when it drizzles all the time, and also the other thingthat makes it depressing is the long nights. It gets dark veryearly and you wake up and it's pitch black again, and so you goto work and it's very dark and you come home and it's darkagain. But in the summer, I think, when the sun's shining, it'svery pleasant indeed, with green parks, trees, very pleasant. Interviewer:And what about English food? What do you think of that?Spiro:Well, I think it's ... English food is all right, but there's a very limited selection of dishes. It's mostly roast and -- offhand --there's only about five typically English dishes I can think of,whereas compare that to Greek food, there's an enormousselection of dishes one could cook. Interviewer:And what doyou think of the English people?Spiro:I find them very reserved, but it seems that when you get to know them, they're quite friendly and sincere. But it usuallytakes some time to actually open an English person up -- if youlike.Interviewer:And what do you think of the English way of life? Spiro:Pretty awful, actually. It's the speed of life really that I find rather tiring.Part IV More about the topic:Native People of Alaska Audioscript:When the Russian discovered Alaska in 1741, they found it occupied by three groups of native peoples -- Eskimos, Aleuts, and Indians. Descendants of these natives still live in Alaska.Most scientists think that the native peoples migrated originally from Asia to North America, not all at once but in wave after wave over thousands of years. Probably the last to enter Alaska were the ancestors of the northern Eskimos.Eskimos Of the different groups of native peoples, the Eskimos are the most numerous. From earliest times the Eskimos depended upon sea mammals, fish, and caribou for their living. In the 1890's reindeer werebrought from Siberia to start herds as an additional means of livelihood.Many Eskimos now live in frame houses heated by fuel oil, but they once lived in sod and driftwood huts heated by seal-oil lamps. They did not build snow ig100s, as some of the Canadian Eskimos still do, except for emergency shelter.The Eskimos are superb hunters. They are an energetic people who have long been known for their ivory carving and other arts and crafts. Their way of life is changing as they find opportunities for schooling and for employment in trades and professions.Aleuts The Aleutian Islands and the Alaska Peninsula are the homelands of the Aleuts. The Aleut language is related to the language of the Eskimos, and yet it is very different. Like the Eskimos, the Aleuts have always depended on the sea for food and other needs. Some of the present-day Aleuts operate fishing boats. Others work in fish canneries. Many Aleuts have Russian names, which go back to the time of the Russian occupation of Alaska.Indians There are two major groups of Indians -- the Indians of the Interior Plateau and the Indians of Southeastern Alaska.The Indians who live in the interior came to Alaska from Canada. Originally they were hunters. Some of them still live by hunting, fishing, and trapping. Others have moved to towns, where they live and work as do other present-day Alaskans.The Indians of Southeastern Alaska are sometimes known as the maritime Indians, or Indians who live near the sea. They have been in Alaska for hundreds of years. Carving and basket making are among the crafts of the maritime Indians. They are known for their totem poles. From earliest times they depended on fish, especially salmon, for their living. Today they are efficient business people who operate commercial fishing boats and canneries. They also follow other occupations such as logging, shopkeeping, and working in government offices.Part V Do you know ...? Audioscript:Dan Cruickshank:I'm at Cuiaba in the western Brazil -- and I'm about to fly, go by car, and by boat, around 750 kilometres into theAmazon rainforest to find my living treasure. My treasure's notan ancient artifact, but something very special that continues tobe created and used by people deep in the rainforest.After several hours, we cross the threshold into what remainsof the rainforest. It's been fenced off and is now protected bythe Brazilian government. I head down the Warema River, atributary of the Amazon, towards my treasure. It's anunbelievably beautiful work of art, created by a tribe called theIgbatsa (Rikbaktsa). Excellent reception committee. Wonderwho I approach. Hello.That is what I've come to see -- the headdress. My most colourful of treasures is a symbol of the Amazon and an object of immense importance to these people. Here we go.Oh my god. Wow. I expected one, maybe two, umahara, but a whole hut full. Beautiful objects, beautifully made, but more to the point, they're full of meaning to these people. They celebrate their culture, their aspirations, their religion. And made from human hair, parrot feathers. Ah, absolutely wonderful. The umahara headdress is worn with great pride by the Igbatsa (Rikbaktsa) people. It's the emblem of an endangered culture. It once played a key role in war ceremonies and is still used in dance rituals. This dance takes place every day for 90 days after the first of June. It's a celebration of birth and all things new. During the dance wives have the right to ask favours of their husbands, who are obliged to grant them.After the dance, I talk to members of the tribe about the headdress and how it's made.Can I ask what it -- what it means to them today, the umahara headdress?Interpreter:He says the umahara represents a great richness in their own culture. And for their future. For their future, theyshouldn't stop creating it and using it for their own use.Dan Cruickshank:Represents their sense of identity really. Interpreter:It represents the identity of the Igbatsa (Rikbaktsa) people. Dan Cruickshank:So we've got feathers from parrots and -- and female hair. That -- that is correct, is it... really? On -- onto -- Interpreter:This is from the -- a Marella clan.Dan Cruickshank:Yes, there is the hair.It's all rather perplexing. To preserve their traditions, theIgbatsa (Rikbaktsa) have to make the umahara headdresses. Yetin so doing, they must kill protected bird species for theirfeathers. While the faces and bodies of the men and women arebrightly painted in the traditional way, they sport natty shortsand bikini tops. Bit by bit, the Igbatsa (Rikbaktsa) are beingdrawn into the modern world, whether they like it or not. Asevening approaches, preparations are being made for supper. Arather tasty feast awaits me. This all brings back very deepmemories. The family halls scattered round about thecompound, the main hall where the communal ceremonies takeplace -- the people gathered round the fire at night eating. Thefields round about. It's like an Anglo-Saxon village in Englanda couple of hundred years ago. It's like meeting one's ancestorscoming back here.Statements:1. The Igbatsa (Rikbaktsa) people live in Brazil.2. The headdress is made from parrot feathers and male hair.3. The headdress is now used in dance rituals to celebrate birthand all things new.4. The dance takes place every day in June.5. During the dance, husbands cannot refuse favors asked bytheir wives.6. The Igbatsa (Rikbaktsa) people do not like the modern wayof life.Part VII Watch and enjoy Videoscript:Narrator:It looks like a paradise, but it is in fact the most treacherous desert in the world:the Kalahari. After the short rainy season, there are many water holes, and even rivers. But after a few weeks, the water sinks away into the deep Kalahari sand. The water holes dry up, and the rivers stop flowing. The grass fades to a beautiful blond color that offersexcellent grazing for the animals. But for the next nine months, there'll be no water to drink. So most of the animals move away, leaving the beautiful blond grass uneaten. Humans avoid the deep Kalahri like the plague because man must have water to live. So the beautiful landscapes are devoid of people, except for the little people of the Kalahari. Pretty, dainty, small and graceful, the Bushmen. Where any other person would die of thirst in a few days, they live quite contentedly in this desert that doesn't look like a desert. They know where to dig for roots and bulbs and tubers and which berries and pods are good to eat. And of course they know what to do about water. For instance, in the early morning, you can collect dewdrops from leaves that were carefully laid out the previous evening. Or a plume of grass can be a reservoir. And if you have the know-how, an insignificant clump of twigs can tell you where to dig, then you come to light with an enormous tuber. You scrape shavings off it with a stick that is split for a sharp edge. You take a handful of the shavings, point your thumb at your mouth and squeeze. They must be the most contented people in the world. They have no crime, no punishment, no violence, no laws, no police, judges, rulers or bosses. They believe that the gods put only good and useful things on the earth for them to use. In this world of theirs, nothing is bad or evil. Even a poisonous snake is not bad. You just have to keep away from the sharp end. Actually, a snake is very good. In fact, it's delicious and theskin makes a fine pouch. They live in the vastness of the Kalahari in small family groups.One family of Bushmen might meet up with another family once in a few years. But for the most part, they live in complete isolation, quite unaware that there are other people in the world. In the deep Kalahari, there are Bushmen who have never seen or heard of civilized man. Sometimes they hear a thundering sound when there are no clouds in the sky, and they assume that the gods have eaten too much again and their rummies are rumbling up there. Sometimes they can even see the evidence of the gods' flatulence. Their language has an idiosyncrasy of its own. It seems to consist mainly of clicking sounds. They are very gentle people. They'll never punish a child or even speak harshly to it. So of course their kids are extremely well-behaved. And their games are cute and inventive. When the family needs meat, the hunter dips his tiny arrow in a brew that acts as a tranquilizer. So when he shoots a buck, it only feels a sting and the arrow drops out. The buck runs away, but soon it gets very drowsy and it stops running. After a while, it goes to sleep. And the hunter apologizes to his prey. He explains that his family needs the meat. The one characteristic which really makes the Bushmen different from all the other races on earth is the fact that they have no sense of ownership at all. Where they live, there's really nothing you can own. Only trees and grass and animals. In fact these Bushmen havenever seen a stone or a rock in their lives. The hardest things they know are wood and bone. They live in a gentle world, where nothing is as hard as rock, or steel or concrete.。

Generally speaking, these sports are popular among college students, though they are not as popular as basketball and soccer.. Not all of these sports are popular among college students. As far as I know, swimming and tennis are more popular among college students than the other three sports.21. I like jogging and playing tennis. When I jog, I listen to music or English. So Idon't feel bored andI can learn something while exercising. I also like playing tennis because it is a very excitingsport and it is fun playing with friends.2. . I don’t do sports every day, but I try to exercise regularly. On weekdays, I’m too busy with myclasses and homework, so I can only do sports occasionally. But on weekends I always manage to spend as much time as I can playing table tennis, going hiking, or doing yoga.. I spend about half an hour doing exerciseevery morning. Usually, I run on the sports field on campus. But if it rains, I do push-ups and sit-ups in my dorm. If I have time, I play soccer or basketball in the afternoon with my classmates.3. Yes, I think so. Playing sports offers may obvious benefits. Playing sports is good to our healthand good health is important for success at college. It also helps cultivate cooperation andteamwork. Besides, playing sports is very good for the development of our social skills, for sports teach us how to communicate and cooperate with people.Reading comprehensionUnderstanding the text11. Because the Sydney-to-Melbourne race is 875 kilometers long and it is a harsh test ofendurance for the world’s top athletes.2. Cliff Young was a toothless 61-year-old farmer; he was wearing rubber boots, and was mcholder than the other runners.3. Other athletes neither believed it nor treated Cliff Young with respect.4. Because Cliff Young didn’t run properly. He had the strangest running style and appeared toshuffle.5. When people found that Cliff Young ran through the entire night without sleeping and when itseemed to them that he intended to keep running until he reached the finish line or fell ill or was injured.6. When he was running, Cliff Young imagined he was gathering his sheep and trying to outrun astorm.7. Cliff Young gave all the prize money to five other runners. He didn’t keep a single cent forhimself.8. Cliff Young is a brilliant example showing that ordinary people also have the inherent quality toachieve great results.Critical thinking21. I think teamwork, fair play and honesty, and excellence in performance best characterize thespirit of sports.. teamwork: Individuals can be strong on their own, but they can be much stronger in a team game.. fairpaly and honesty: Respect the rules of the fame. Be honest. Never cheat even though you know you won’t get caught.. excellence in performance: Always try your best. Show your efforts and best performance. 2. By playing sports, people can cultivate honesty, determination, and mutual respect.. Honesty: you will learn that having the sense of fair play and observing moral principles are essential in playing sports.. Determination: Be ready to face difficulties or frustrations: Be ready to face difficulties or frustrations and never give up. Ultimately, this could be the deciding factor when it comes to winning or losing.. Mutual respect: It is compulsory to play by the rules. You will learn to respect your opponents, fellow players, referees, and fans.3. No, winning isn’t the most important thing in sports. Winning is good, but there is much moreabout playing sports than winning playing sports brings about many benefits, the most important of which is to cultivate the spirit of sports. The spirit of sports is best reflected in the Olympic Creed, which reads: “The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is no the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.4. I think it means that a true champion has great confidence and determination that we should nottake lightly. A true champion knows one must push his limits of endurance or strength or skill to achieve victory. A true champion never gives up.5. The story of Cliff Young is extraordinary and inspirational, from which I have learned a greatdeal. I have learned that we should pursue our dreams regardless of what other people have to say. An ordinary person can become a hero, and wonderful things do happen when we are determined and committed. Most important of all, we should believe in ourselves!Language focusWords in use31. annual2. contract3. distinction4. substantial5. furnished7. assemble8. react9. apparent10. magnificentword building4Words learned new words formed -ingboring borefascinating fascinateamuse amusing-ionExplode explosion Assume assumption Evolve evolution Compensatecompensation Contribution contribute-aryElement elementary Revolution revolutionary51. assumption2. fascinated3. explosion4. elementary5. compensation6. evolution8. bore9. contribute10. revolutionarybanked cloze61K 2D 3C 4B 5H 6O 7F 8M 9A 10GExpressions in use71. passed away2. left behind3. give away4. had no intention of5.

(1)In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child's acquisition (学会)of each new skill m the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing.It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child.This might happen at any stage.A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads.On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.(2)Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children.Some may be especially strict in money matters.Others are severe (严格的)over time of coming home at night or punctuality for meals.In general, the controls represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child's own happiness.(3)As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching.To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德).Also, parents should realize that "example is better than precept".If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.(4)A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents' principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.58.Eagerly watching the child's acquisition of new skills, ___________.A.should be avoidedB.is universal among parentsC.sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD.will make the child lose interest in learning new things58.B 推理判断题。

This year, some shoppers, however, stayed up late on Thanksgiving night. This change in behavior was in large part due to the efforts of different stores to beat each other during the traditional start to the holiday shopping season. Some popular stores for the first time opened at midnight on Thanksgiving night to offer deals that once were reserved for the next day. It was reported that 24 percent of Black Friday shoppers were at stores at midnight. That’s up from percent the year before when only a few stores were open during that time.But those hours mostly attracted the younger people. Of those shopping at midnight on Black Friday, 37 percent were aged 18 to 34. Older shoppers weren’t as quick to run to the stores. Only percent of 35- to 54-year-olds were in stores by midnight. One department store, for example, attracted 10,000 people to its midnight opening and many of them were young people who turned out for the gift sets and discounted fashion items. Jenny, 15 years old, went out with her four cousins to one big department store at midnight and then shopped at another one until 2:30 . Then, she and her cousins went home to bed. “It’s always been inconvenient,” Jenny says of the traditional 4 . Black Friday openings of years past. “No one likes to wake up that early.”Q1: What is special about this year’s Black Friday shopping?Q2: Why did some stores open at midnight on Thanksgiving night?Q3: How many Black Friday shoppers were reported to go to the shops at midnight this year?Q4: What can we learn about the 15-year-old Jenny?Passage 2Scripts and answersMost people like to keep a healthy diet during the holiday season starting from Thanksgiving to Christmas and New Year. There are many social events to 1) celebrate and we love to look our best. We also need healthy food to 2) provide us with the energy necessary to go to all of these parties with enthusiasm.But the unfortunate reality is that many of us have a hard time 3) sticking to healthy eating habits during the holidays. We face more 4) challenges at this time than we do during the rest of the year. Starting from Thanksgiving, many of us are already 5) anticipating gaining some weight. The holiday season is when we bring out abundant and delicious food. Turkey, ham, cakes and other great foods attract us to eat larger 6) portions than we need. Many of us are more likely than usual to 7) stuff ourselves, and not always with the healthiest food. Moreover, the holiday season is a busy, and often stressful, time of year. We are rushing too much, spending too much, and letting stress 8) take hold of us too often. This can lead to emotional eating, that is, eating too much or too little.Luckily, there are some 9) effective ways to fight holiday eating problems. Learn about the causes of and solutions for emotional eating. Eat some healthy food before you go to a party so that you won’t eat too much there. Exercise after the party is over.

It can only hold two people.. It’s difficult to slow down.. It’s open to bad weather conditions.The Lightning Bug:. It’s very small..

It is also easy to get into and out of the Horseless Sulky. And it is easy to see things both on the left and on the right.Student B: The Lightning Bug was invented by an American in the 1930s.

The average one-way commute has grown by 13 percent to 25 minutes. For a growing number of people, getting to work takes more than an hour. In 2000, only in New York State did more than 10 percent of workers spend more than an hour getting to work. Now that situation can be found in several other states as well. Two pint eight million people have so called extreme commutes because they spend more than 90 minutes on their way to work.Steven, an electrical engineer, has an extreme commute between home and work. He learves home before dawn and returns after dark, but as tiring or boring as Stevens trip may sound, he says it’s the way to keep the home and jo he loves. “I have the balance right now,” Steven said. “I could do similar jobs closer, but not with the work rewards and job satisfaction I have now. and I could live closer, but I wouldn’t have the lifestyle that I desire.”Longer commutes frequently involve people who live at one end of the city and work at another. Such a pattern probably begins with companies moving away from the city center, attracting workers to move to less expensive areas further away from the city center. People see this as an opportunity because such aove may provide more affordable housing or better schools. Steven spends about $185 a week on gas. Even high fuel costs can pay off in a better quality of life.Added to long commutes are increased traffic jams, however. Comuters typically spend 47 hours a year in traffic jams, up from 40 hours a decade earlier.Q1: How much time on average do Americans spend on their way to work?Q2: What is the present situation about Americans’ commuting t work?Q3: why does Steven choose to have an extreme commute?Q4: Which of the following is the disadvantage of long commutes?Answers1C 2A 3D 4APassage 2Scripts and answersHumans’ first means of transportation were walking and swimming. 1)Gradually, humans learned to use animals for transportation.

After the Revolution, transportation changed 6)thoroughly. In the 19th century, the invention of the steam engine made land transportation independent of human or animal power. Both speed and 7)capacity increased rapidly.With the development of cars at 8)turn of the 20th century, land transportation became more common. In 1903, the first controllable airplane was invented, and after world War I, it became a fast way to transport people and goods. After World War II, 9)automobiles and airplanes became more popular as methods of transportation. Then, after high-speed rail was first introduced in Japan in 1964, passengers started using it in Asia and Europe instead of using airplanes to travel long distances.Now, 10)thanks to the development of technology, human beings are able to enjoy various methods of transportation for their speed and comfort.。

大学英语课程(外教社版)一课一练试卷(精读-一级)Unit 5答案Part I Writing (30 minutes)How to be a successful writerSome people believe that a writer is born but not taught. A writer should have certain gift or talent since his or her childhood. People can not be taught in school or college to be a good writer.However, other people have the opinion that being a writer doesn’t require much talent or gift. What is required is to put your heart on it and work hard toward it. You should write with honesty and emotion, in a whole-hearted way about what you truly believe instead of making up story to cheat the readers.As far as writing is concerned, I believe that writing right does require a little talent and certain knowledge of writing. Besides, diligence and devotion are dispensable part of being a good writer.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)1-7 CDAABCD8. main attraction9. wandering10. expensivePart III Listening Comprehension (30 minutes)11-15 CABBC 16-21BAB CBC22. matter 23.check 24.brown 25.trafficPart IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)26-35 DCBAE, FGHOL36-45 CBBCD DACADPart V Cloze (15 minutes)46-55.

I put on the trousers I had on yesterday and take a shirt out of the wardrobe----it doesn’t matter which one as long as it’s ironed. I find the jacket that goes with the trousers, look down and check that my socks match and t hat’s it. Nearly all my clothes are either green or brown because I’ve been told that they are the only colors that suit me. So I never really have to worry about what I go with. The important thing is to make sure I have enough time to listen to the traffic and weather program before I leave for work.。
