It is showed by the statistics which are unofficial but frequently quoted concerning the Cambridge First Certificate examination that those students with a vocabulary of less than 3,500 words are less likely to succeed in the exam. The latest research also indicates that native speaker of English knows at least 16,000 English words, when he has received education until he’s 18 or mor e. Unless you are proficient in a language such as Spanish or German, there is no shortcut to a large vocabulary: you have to depend on diligence and dedication. Of course, you can infer from context the meaning of some new words you come across in reading., but often you have to consult a dictionary to clarify the exactmeanings. A practical method to learn new words may be reading widely, especially reading those interesting and exciting. Repeatedly, the same books is often beneficial to you: each time yo u read it you’ll learn different new words, and the familiar context also helps you to engrave these new words on your mind deeply.第二课大学英语精读第五册课后习题答案(2u)(2010-07-20 14:15:35)转载标签:答案教育分类:大学英语V ocabulary work一1.Notions inhabited2.Denial3.Independent4.Realistic5.Pass for6.Consequent7.A handful of8.As opposed to9.Urged influential10.Eternal11.In search of 12.Cherish 13.Related 14.Denial, was opposed to 15.Haunted 16.Discerned二1.Combat2.Capabilities3.Eternal4.Opposed to5.In search of6.Stake … on7.No wonder8.In the light of9.Discern10.Paralyzed 11.Crying out for 12.Awaken to 13.Consequent 14.Sensitive to三1.She showed a complete lack of interest in the subject under discussion.2.Now that she’s got a part-time job, she is financially independent of her family.3.As a charity, we provide food and shelter for people in need, regardless of the reasons for their need.4.These stars are barely visible to the naked eyes.5.The depression that started in mid-1929 was a catastrophe of unprecedented dimensions for the United States.6.Even to this day, the hunger he suffered in his childhood still haunts him.7.Robert overcame his shyness which had formerly paralyzed him in Mary’s presence.8.The fall in the cost of living is directly related to the drop in the oil price.四1.

As long as you try to learn from you failure instead of holding a negative view about yourself or identifying with failure, you are very likely to succeed in the future. Have you ever thought that those who have failed again and again are always the victims of bad self-image? They failed often because of not external reasons but internal reasons. Countless examples verify that if those people could be prevailed on to change their view and set up positive self-image, their performance would change miraculously. Success can come at any time, whenever you are thirty, forty or when it seems that you have failed all your life. Success in early years is sweet, but the late one is more tasty.第四课大学英语精读第五册课后习题答案(4u)(2010-07-20 15:01:33)转载标签:答案教育分类:大学英语V ocabulary work一1.Blessing2.Borders3.Childish4.Desperation5.Mercy6.Signature7.Steadily8.Stand out9.Came over10.Broke his heart 11.Pay back 12.Flung 13.Consent 14.Hold your tongue 二1.

They have a special ability to think and analyze, and unlimited patience in observing and collecting date. However , not all scientific discoveries can be ascribed to abilities and patience; they usually connect closely with creative imagination. Of course, the leap of imagination is often the first step leading to discoveries. Moreover , scientists are famous for their honesty.They put a high premium on honesty, mainly because that honesty is cardinal to their career. Every theory they put forward has to be further tested. Every error and lie are sure to be found. So, if finding some evidence contradiction with their ideas, scientists modify even abandon their ideas, instead of concealing them. In this way, they accumulate an immense amount of knowledge, which can help us understand ourselves and surroundings better.分享第六课大学英语精读第五册课后习题答案(6u)(2010-07-20 15:53:05)转载标签:答案教育分类:大学英语V ocabulary work一1.

Jenny regarded it as my father’s actively reaching out to a reconciliation, so we should accept it. I was in the midst of abstracting an important case and preparing for the coming examinations at that time, hence I only used the simplest words to tell her no day to reconcile forever. My refusal apparently made Jenny depressed, but as a rational woman, she didn’t quarrel with me. She just tried to persuade me. But it only made me furious, thinking that Jenny made me upset deliberately. I must have been crazy them, because I did a thing for which I would never forgive myself-I shouted at Jenny and hurled the telephone at her. But once I threw it, I regretted. When I turned back to see her, she had disappeared.I went out to look for her everywhere, but in vain. I was scared to death, not knowing what to do next. When I was going to give up, I suddenly saw Jenny sitting in front of our house. I walked forward to her, saying “Jenny, I’m sorry-” But she interrupted my apology and said, ”love means not ever having to say you’re sorry.”分享第八课大学英语精读第五册课后习题答案(8u)(2010-07-09

The first misunderstanding is that of the meaning of democracy.We think that democracy in education means gearing all courses to the middlelevel.We reject special programs and schools for superior students as undemocratic.(Paras.5)B. The second misunderstanding is that of the meaning of happiness.This misunderstanding results from our stress on comfort rather than onaccomplishment.The stress on material well-being has been reflected in the schools by too littlediscipline and too easy subjects.(Paras.6)C. The third misunderstanding is that of ultimate values.These values have been denied in recent teacher education.The inevitable result in mass selfishness is already evident.(Paras.7-9)IV.To assure our children the freedom to develop, we must challenge their abilities.(Paras.7)A.We can give them a demanding curriculum.Michelangelo did not learn to paint by doodling.Mozart did not become a pianist by watching television.They, like Eve Curie and Helen Keller, were challenged by disciplined training.(Paras.8)B.We can give them the right to failure.We must not give high school diplomas without regard to merit.We must be realistic about failure to meet standards and must teach our childrenrealism.(Paras.9) C.We can give them the best values we know.We can show them what history has taught us to be true.These truths may inspire us to make a “ringing message”that could mean true freedomfor them.IV.

An unofficial, but often quoted, figure for the Cambridge First Certificate examination suggests that students with a vocabulary of less than 3,500 words are unlikely to be successful in the exam. Current research also suggests that native English speakers who have been educated up to 18 years old or beyond know at least 16,000 English words. And unless you already speak a language like Spanish or German, there are no shortcuts to a large vocabulary in English: you just have to rely on diligence and dedication. Of course you can figure out from the context the meanings of some new words you come across in your reading, but more often than not you have to look them up in a dictionary in order to be clear about their accurate meanings.A practicable way to pick up new words is, perhaps, to read a lot, preferably stories that you find interesting or exciting. It often pays to read the same book over and over again: each time you read it you will learn different new words, and the familiar context helps to fix them in your mind.Unit 21. I don’t think it is realistic to turn to him for help. As a matter of fact, he himself is in need of help.2. More and more people are being awakened to the urgent need of combating air pollution.3. There are visible signs that some of the time-honored old traditions and valuesare no longer cherished by the young people.4. Many of us find the notion of a boundless universe hard to grasp.5. There being so many loopholes in the laws and regulations, it is little wonder that a handful of speculators got rich overnight.6. An unprecedented boom in tourism brought sudden prosperity to the small border town, which was formerly inhabited by only three hundred people.7. In the light of this information, that country already has the capabilities to make nuclear weapons.8. Regardless of repeated warnings from his friends, he staked all his money on high-risk ventures.Unit 3If you started on some venture and failed, do not despair/lose heart. There is a world of difference between “ I have failed three times” and “I am a failure”. So long as you do not hold a negative concept of self or identify with failures but try to learn from them, you stand a good chance to succeed in the future. Does it ever occur to you that those who fail repeatedly are often victims of a poor self-image? Often their failures are due to internal causes rather than external causes. Numerous cases have borne it out that if they can be induced to change their viewpoint and construct a positive self-image, miraculous changes may take place in their performance. Success can come anytime --- at thirty, forty or even after a lifetime of apparent failure. Early triumphs may be sweet, but success in later life often tastes even better.Unit 41. Far from being permissive, many parents are putting tremendous pressure on their children to be exceptional in everything.2. Owing to her academic excellence, this Changsha girl has been accepted by several prestigious American universities, including Harvard, Yale and MIT.3. Many parents start their children in piano or violin lessons at ever-earlier ages in hopes that they will become exceptional pianists or violinists.4. In modern society, clothing styles change yearly. Some are in this year but will be out the next.5. More likely than not, what this “new” parenting idea brings about will be “super problems” rather than “super kids”.6. Young people should be given the opportunity to take the initiative, to take responsibility for their mistakes and credit for their achievements.7. In my view, he is so weak-willed that he could hardly give up smoking. To my surprise, he has easily cured himself of this bad habit.8. Demands on students have to be tailored to their interests and abilities.Unit 5Scientists are a small group of people who strive to gain insights into nature, seeking order in seeming disorder. They are credited with a special ability to think and analyze, and with infinite patience in making observations and collecting data. But ability and patience do not account for all scientific discoveries, which often have。

现代大学英语精读5课后答案
Lesson 1Vocabulary1. Manhood:the state of being human2. White lie:harmless or trivial lie,esp.one told in order to avoid hurting sb.3. black sheep:person regarded as a disgrace or a failure by other members of his family or group4. To upset: to defeat5. Affirmation:stating sth.as truth firmly and forcefully6. To strain: to make the greatest possible effort7. Off base: mistaken8. (a) want (of) : lack of9. Ringing cry: rallying callParagraph1. The job of arousing manhood within a people that have been taught for so many centuries that they are nobody is not easy.It is no easy job to educate a people who have been told over centuries that they were inferior and of no importance to see that they are humans, the same as any other people.2. Psychological freedom, a firm sense of self-esteem, is the most powerful weapon against the long night of physical slavery.If you break the mental shackles imposed on you by white supremacists, if you really respect yourself, thinking that you are a Man, equal to anyone else, you will be able to take part in the struggle against racial discrimination.3. The Negro will only be free when he reaches down to the inner depths of his own being and signs with the pen and ink of assertive manhood his own emancipation proclamation.The liberation of mind can only be achieved by the Negro himself/herself. Only when a negro is fully convinced that he/she is a Man/Woman and is not inferior to anyone else, can he/she throw off the manacles of self-abnegation and become free.4. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.Power in its best form of function is the carrying out of the demands of justice with love and justice in the best form of function is the overcoming of everything standing in the way of love with power.5. At that time economic status was considered the measure of the individual’s ability and talents.At that time, the way to evaluate how capable and resourceful a person was to see how much money he had made (or how wealthy he was).6. …the absence of worldly goods indicated a want of industrious habits and moral fiber.A person was poor because he was lazy and not hard-working and lacked a sense of right and wrong.7. It is not the work of slaves driven to their tasks either by the task, by the taskmaster, or by animal necessity.This kind of work cannot be done by slaves who work because the work has to be done, because they are forced to work by slave-drivers or because they need to work in order to be fed and clothed.8. …when the unjust measurement of human worth on the scale of dollars is eliminated.…when the unfair practice of judhing human value by the amount of money a person has irs done away with.9. He who hates does not know God, but he who has love has the key that unlocks the door to the meaning of ultimate reality.Those who harbor hate in their hearts cannot grasp the teachings of God. Only those who have love can enjoy the ultimate happiness in Heaven.10. Let us be dissatisfied until America will no longer have a high blood pressure of creeds and an anemia of deeds.Let us be dissatisfied until America no longer only talk about racial equality but is unwilling or reluctant to take action to end such evil practice as racial discrimination.Translation1. A white lie is better than a black lie.一个无关紧要的谎言总比一个恶意的谎言要好。

现代大学英语精读5翻译及课后习题答案(5个单元)
现代大学英语V-4译文及练习答案女性的职业弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫l.你们的秘书邀请我时对我说你们妇女服务团关注的是女性就业问题,她提议我讲一讲我就业的亲身体验。
我是女性,这是事实;我有工作,这也是事实。
但我又有什么职业体验呢?这很难讲。
我从事的是文学职业,与其他职业相比,当然不包括戏剧行业,在文学职业里几乎没有什么女性体验,我的意思是几乎没有女性特有的体验。
多年前,路已开辟出来。
许多知名的女性---范妮·伯尼、阿芙拉.贝恩、哈丽雅特·马蒂诺、简·奥斯汀、乔治·艾略特---和许多不知名以及已被人忘记的女性在我之前铺平了道路并指导我向前走。
因此,在我从事写作时,几乎没有物质障碍。
写作这个职业既受人尊敬又没有危险。
写字的沙沙声不会打破家庭的和平,写作也不需要什么家庭开销。
花16便士买的纸足够用来写莎士比亚的所有戏剧---要是你有那样的才智的话。
作家不需要钢琴和模特,不用去巴黎、维也纳和柏林,也不需要家庭教师。
当然,廉价的写作用纸是女性作为作家成功而先于其他职业的原因。
2.我讲讲我的故事,那只是个平常的故事。
你们自己设想一个姑娘,手里握着一支笔坐在卧室里。
从十点钟到一点钟她只是不停地由左向右写,然后她想到做一件既省钱又省力的事---把那些纸张放进信封,在信封的一角贴上一张一便士的邮票,把信封投进拐角的一个红色邮筒。
我就是这样成了一名撰稿人。
我的努力在下个月的第一天得到了回报---_那是我一生中非常快乐的一天。
我收到了编辑寄来的一封信,里面装有一张一英镑十先令六便士的支票。
为了让你们了解我不值得被称作职业女性,对人生的艰难和奋斗知之甚少,我得承认我没用那笔钱买食物、付房租、买袜子和肉,而是出去买了一只猫,一只漂亮的波斯猫,这只猫不久就引起了我和邻居间的激烈争端。
3.什么会比写文章并用赚得的钱买波斯猫来得更容易?但再想一想,文章得有内容。
我好像记得我的文章是评论一部名人写的小说。

It is said that the 661 large and medium-sized cities nationwide, about two-thirds are suffering from acute shortage of water. Beijing is a good example in point. It not only lacks surface water, even its underground water is dangerously low. It is reported to have dropped by 90 meters.Some scholars suggest we move our capital to some other place. This is of course unfeasible/ unrealistic, but the message is clear.3.Our water resources first of all are not evenly distributed intime or space. They are either too much, causing floods, or too little, causing droughts.4.In spite of the impressive progress we have achieved in thepast years, we are still far from effectively harnessing our rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Soil erosion and desertification are increasingly threatening our economy and people’s life.Many of our rivers no longer flow to the sea. In 1998, the Yellow River failed to have enough water to flow to the sea for 212 days.5.Traditionally, our water resources have mainly been used toirrigate land but, in recent years, demands on water for industrial and domestic use have also been sharply on the rise.They have seriously outgrown supplies.6.Today our scarce water resources are becoming even scarcerbecause a lot of water is being wasted on capacious power showers, flush lavatories, and golf rinks. Moreover, a lot of water being polluted.7.These two rivers both have their headwater in the country. Ittherefore makes water an issue for potential serious dispute between the two countries.8.In recent years, we have pinned great hopes on the projects todivert water from the south to the north, hopping that it will once and for all solve our flood problem in the south and the drought problem in the north. But there are scholars whose opinions differ. They warn us that immunity of the Yangtze to droughts cannot be taken for granted.1 with better medical care, my grandfather could have lived to eighty.2 even at a gunpoint I wouldn’t renounce my beliefs.3 Further delay would cause us even greater loss.4. But for the seatbelt, she would have been severely injured inthe acctident.5 A man without a strong sense of justice wouldn’t have br ought the matter up.6 Without an experienced guide like her, we might have been trapped in the jungle.7 I wonder how many of us would have done the same in his position8 With a more sophisticated computer, we would have completed the project much sooner.9 Without a strong will, even a healthy man wouldn’t have reached the top of the mountain in two hours10 A less resourceful person wouldn’t have been able to carry out the task under such unfavorable conditions.。

现代大学英语精读5翻译及课后习题答案(5个单元)
现代大学英语精读5翻译及课后习题答案(5个单元)现代大学英语V-4译文及练习答案女性的职业弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫l.你们的秘书邀请我时对我说你们妇女服务团关注的是女性就业问题,她提议我讲一讲我就业的亲身体验。
我是女性,这是事实;我有工作,这也是事实。
但我又有什么职业体验呢?这很难讲。
我从事的是文学职业,与其他职业相比,当然不包括戏剧行业,在文学职业里几乎没有什么女性体验,我的意思是几乎没有女性特有的体验。
多年前,路已开辟出来。
许多知名的女性---范妮·伯尼、阿芙拉.贝恩、哈丽雅特·马蒂诺、简·奥斯汀、乔治·艾略特---和许多不知名以及已被人忘记的女性在我之前铺平了道路并指导我向前走。
因此,在我从事写作时,几乎没有物质障碍。
写作这个职业既受人尊敬又没有危险。
写字的沙沙声不会打破家庭的和平,写作也不需要什么家庭开销。
花16便士买的纸足够用来写莎士比亚的所有戏剧---要是你有那样的才智的话。
作家不需要钢琴和模特,不用去巴黎、维也纳和柏林,也不需要家庭教师。
当然,廉价的写作用纸是女性作为作家成功而先于其他职业的原因。
2.我讲讲我的故事,那只是个平常的故事。
你们自己设想一个姑娘,手里握着一支笔坐在卧室里。
从十点钟到一点钟她只是不停地由左向右写,然后她想到做一件既省钱又省力的事---把那些纸张放进信封,在信封的一角贴上一张一便士的邮票,把信封投进拐角的一个红色邮筒。
我就是这样成了一名撰稿人。
我的努力在下个月的第一天得到了回报---_那是我一生中非常快乐的一天。
我收到了编辑寄来的一封信,里面装有一张一英镑十先令六便士的支票。
为了让你们了解我不值得被称作职业女性,对人生的艰难和奋斗知之甚少,我得承认我没用那笔钱买食物、付房租、买袜子和肉,而是出去买了一只猫,一只漂亮的波斯猫,这只猫不久就引起了我和邻居间的激烈争端。
3.什么会比写文章并用赚得的钱买波斯猫来得更容易?但再想一想,文章得有内容。

现代大学英语译文及练习答案一、Where_do_we_go_from_here我们向何处去?马丁.路德.金1.为了回答“我们向何处去”这一问题,我们现在必须明确我们的现状。
当初拟定宪法时,一个不可思议的公式规定黑人在纳税和选举权方面只是一个完整人的60%。
如今又一个匪夷所思的公式似乎规定黑人只盂交纳一个人应交税的50%,只享受一个人应享受的选举权利的50%。
对于生活中的好事,黑人大约只享有白人所享受的一半;而生活中的不愉快,黑人却要承受白人所面对的两倍。
因此,所有黑人中有一半人住着低标准的住房。
并且黑人的收入只是白人的一半。
每当审视生活中的负面经历时,黑人总是占双倍的份额。
黑人无业者是白人的两倍。
黑人婴儿的死亡率是白人的两倍,从黑人所占的总人口比率上看,在越南死亡的黑人是白人的两倍。
2.其他领域也有同样惊人的数字。
在小学,黑人比白人落后一至三年,并且他们的被白人隔离的学校的学生人均所得到的补贴比白人的学校少得多。
20个上大学的学生中,只有一个是黑人。
在职的黑人中75%的人从事低收入、单凋乏味的非技术性工作。
3.这就是我们的现状。
我们的出路在哪里?首先,我们必须维护自己的尊严和价值。
我们必须与仍压迫我们的制度抗争,从而树立崇高的不可诋毁的价值观。
我们再不能因为是自已黑人而感到羞耻。
几百年来灌输黑人是卑微的、无足轻重的,因此要唤起他们做人的尊严绝非易事。
4.甚至语义学似乎也合谋把黑色的说成足丑陋的、卑劣的。
罗杰特分类词典中与黑色相关的词有120个,其中至少60个微词匿影藏形,例如。
污渍、煤烟、狰狞的、魔鬼和恶臭的。
而与白色相关的词约有134个,它们却毫无例外都褒嘉洋溢,诸如纯洁、洁净、贞洁和纯真此类词等。
白色的(善意的)谎言总比黑色的(恶意的)谎言要好。
家中最为人所不齿的人是“黑羊”,即败家子。
奥西.戴维斯曾建议或许应重造英语语言,从而教师将不再迫不得已因教黑人孩子60种方式蔑视自己而使他们继续怀有不应有的自卑感,因教白人孩子134种方式宠爱自己而使他们继续怀有不应有的优越感。

My father had some unhappy experiences with lawyers and policemen (implyingthat he got into some trouble and was punished in some way) and therefore did notlike lawyers and policemen. The speaker’s use of this unashamed admission about his father’s trouble with the law is humorous.2. My father advised me to study literature since that was what I really liked. I had onlyone life, unless I had secret knowledge that we can all be reborn again and again (that reincarnation is not just nonsense) and therefore I can go to college many times. Myfather of course was totally contemptuous of the whole idea of reincarnation.3.

In order to be successful, they have to work hard. They must earn the right to keeptheir job as a professor for as long as they like, keep publishing if they do not want to perish, get higher and higher salaries, and get offers from outside their universities to add to their prestige. And all this can be broadly called scholarly work.5. The professor saves his energies for his own scholarly work while the student saveshis energies for his friends, socializing, volunteer work, building a network ofpeople who might be useful for his career, and trying in every possible way toobtain an ideal job upon graduation, which is really the most important goal for him.The speaker is implying that neither the professor nor the student is giving his/hermain attention to teaching and learning.6. Eton, as we know is a “public”(that is, private) school for the British aristocracy. Iteducates the men who become Britain’s leaders; the ties formed there areall-important as are the unspoken rules you learn. So what Wellington is sayinghere is that it was this small and cohesive class and its values that defeated Napoleon.7. What students are looking for from a liberal arts education is not a luxury, but anecessity. It is not something you could do with, but something you absolutely can’tdo without.8. You may be… someone who is never embarrassed in social gatherings because youare so well-read and so knowledgeable (or who can embarrass others by making them appear ignorant).9. For some reason, you find that these writers who lived a long time ago seem to knowmore about you than you do yourself.10. In reading, I continue to look for one thing.
