Unit1 Mr. Doherty Builds His Dream LifeThe passage mainly talked about the dream life of the author with his family on a farm, where the author could write and live. The author viewed his life in the country as a self-reliant and satisfying one, but sometimes the good life would get very hard. On the first winter, the author was fond of every minute instead with his family, which they would never forget, while the follow spring brought two floods, which made them amazed. After quitting his job, the author’s income was reduced, but he and his family were able to manage to get by. Besides, he ran a farm and benefited more from it. A tolerance for solitude and a lot of energy had made it possible for the family to enjoy their life in the country. What’s more, they also had found the lifestyle that they preferred in this place.Unit 2 The Freedom GiversThe passage mainly talked about three persons, Josiah Henson, John Parker and Levi Coffin, who were the givers of freedom for black slaves in the American history. Besides, the author praised the exploits of civil-rights heroes who helped slaves travel the Underground Railroad to freedom by citing more examples. What’s more, it was high time to honor the heroes who helped liberate slaves by forging the Underground Railroad in the early civil-rights struggles in America. After winning his own freedom from slavery, John Parker helped other slaves to escape north to Canada and freedom. Supported by a strong religious conviction, the white man Levi Coffin risked himself to help many black slaves to escape. At last, by traveling the Underground Railroad, Josiah Henson reached his destination and became free.Unit 3 The Land of the LockThe passage mainly talked about the land of lock, which happened in American. When the author was young, it was the local custom for people to leave the front door at night but didn’t close it, and none of them carried keys. However, nowadays those days were over, and the era of leaving the front door on the latch has drawn to a close. What a great change was that no locking had been replaced by dead-bolt locks, security chains, electronic alarm systems and so on. Therefore, the lock became the new symbol of America. What’s more, a new atmosphere of fear and distrust had crept into every aspect of daily life. As a result, security devices, in varied forms, were put to use. In locking their fears out, they became prisoners of their own making.Unit 4 Was Einstein a Space AlienThe passage mainly talked about Albert Einstein, who was a young husband and father with a bushy hair. In order to support his young family, with a poor sleep, he had to work hard at the Patent Office so that he was very tired. For which, he felt all the pressure and responsibility. However, aiming to relax himself, he made astonishing achievements in physics and thus revolutionized the field with five papers about spare time, which were of great impact on all over the world. Because of his supper intelligence and the contribution to the society, the United Nations declared 2005 as his miracle year. What’s more, his discoveries were attributable to his imagination, questioning, disregard constantly for authority, powers of concentration, and interest in science. In fact, he was not a space alien, but just a common person.Unit 5 Three Thank-You LettersThe passage mainly talked about the author’s three special letters, by which he wanted to celebrate the true meaning of Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day 1943, as a young coastguardsman at sea, he worked as a cook. While he was going to think about Thanksgiving, he came up with the idea of expressing his gratitude to people who had helped him before. Therefore, he wrote three thank-you letters to three persons, his father, the Rev. Nelson and his grandmother. At a mail call, he got three letters in reply, which drove him to think deeply. After he retired from the Coast Guard, he still never forgot these letters which gave him an insight into expressing appreciation for one’s efforts. Furthermore, he wished everyone to find the good and then praise it.Unit 6 The Last LeafThe passage mainly talked about the last leaf, which Johnsy gave a sight to after she got the pneumonia and lived in the hospital. She looked out the window and counted the leaves on an old ivy vine. Furthermore, she made up her mind to end her life when the last leaf fell. When she saw the last leaf still cling to the vine after two nights’ rain and wind, she decided not to give up her life. In fact, the last leaf, called a masterpiece by Behrman who risked his life painting it there the night that the last leaf fell, was actually painted onto the wall. However, because it looked so real that she could have never imagined that it was faked. In a deeper sense, it saved her life.unit 1 Mr. Doherty Builds His Dream LifeIn America many people have a romantic idea of life in the countryside. Many living in towns dream of starting up their own farm, of living off the land. Few get round to putting their dreams into practice. This is perhaps just as well, as the life of a farmer is far from easy, as Jim Doherty discovered when he set out to combine being a writer with running a farm. Nevertheless, as he explains, he has no regrets and remains enthusiastic about his decision to change his way of life.在美国，不少人对乡村生活怀有浪漫的情感。

新标准⼤学英语综合3课⽂翻译（1-10单元30篇）概要Unit 1-1Catching crabs1 In the fall of our final year, our mood changed. The relaxed atmosphere of the preceding summer semester, the impromptu ball games, the boating on the Charles River, the late-night parties had disappeared, and we all started to get our heads down, studying late, and attendance at classes rose steeply again. We all sensed we were coming to the end of our stay here, that we would never get a chance like this again, and we became determined not to waste it. Most important of course were the final exams in April and May in the following year. No one wanted the humiliation of finishing last in class, so the peer group pressure to work hard was strong. Libraries which were once empty after five o'clock in the afternoon were standing room only until the early hours of the morning, and guys wore the bags under their eyes and their pale, sleepy faces with pride, like medals proving their diligence.2 But there was something else. At the back of everyone's mind was what we would do next, when we left university in a few months' time. It wasn't always the high flyers with the top grades who knew what they were going to do. Quite often it was the quieter, less impressive students who had the next stages of their life mapped out. One had landed a job in his brother's advertising firm in Madison Avenue, another had got a script under provisional acceptance in Hollywood. The most ambitious student among us was going to work as a party activist at a local level. We all saw him ending up in the Senate or in Congress one day. But most people were either looking to continue their studies, or to make a living with a white-collar job in a bank, local government, or anything which would pay them enough to have a comfortable time in their early twenties, and then settle down with a family, a mortgage and some hope of promotion.3 I went home at Thanksgiving, and inevitably, my brothers and sisters kept asking me what I was planning to do. I didn't know what to say. Actually, I did know what to say, but I thought they'd probably criticize me, so I told them what everyone else was thinking of doing.4 My father was watching me but saying nothing. Late in the evening, he invited me to his study. We sat down and he poured 抓螃蟹1.⼤学最后⼀年的秋天，我们的⼼情变了。

3.2the mystery of Girl with a Pearl Earring The painting Girl with a Pearl Earring is one of Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer’s masterworks.It shows a striking young woman wearing an exotic costume and a turban,peering over her shoulder straight out at the viewer.As the name implies,it uses a pearl earring for a focal point.It has been referred to as the Mona Lisa of the north,because,like Leonardo da Vinci’s painting,it appears to be a simple likeness of a woman with an enigmatic smile,yet which contains levels of meanings and questions.So much mystery in the painting contributes to its worldwide popularity and generates a thoroughly rewarding novel and a well-composed film.

Make the best of our short stay and fill our life with the riches on offer so that when the reaper arrives,we’ve achieved much instead of regrets.UNIT 22.1supermanThe extract from Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams by Sylvia Plath is a combination of her real life and imaginary life in her childhood.In the real life,Plath was a winner of the prize for drawing the best Civil Defense signs,lived by an airport and had an Uncle who bore resemblance to Superman.In her imagination,the airport was her Mecca and Jerusalem because of her flying dreams.Superman fulfilled her dream at the moment.David Stirling,a bookish boy,also worship Superman.During the recess at school,he and the author played Superman /doc/15a6ccfc6394dd88d0d233d4b14e852458fb39dd.html pared with their school-mates who played the routine games,they felt they were outlaws but had a sense of windy superiority.They also found a stand-in,Sheldon Fein, who later invented tortures.2.2cultual childhoodsHistorically,childhood has undergone enormous transformations in terms of children’s responsibilities and parental expectations.Culturally,childhood is socially constructed.The interplay of history and cultural leads to different understanding of childhood,consequently it is advisable not to impose ideas from one culture to understand childhood in another culture.UNIT 33.1how we listenFor the sake of clarify,we split up the process of listening to music into three hypothetical planes.Firstly,the sensuous plane.It is a kind of brainless but attractive state of mind engenderedby the mere sound appeal of the music.Secondly,the expressive plane.It is when we believe each piece of music has a theme,which mirrors a different world of feeling,such asgaiety,sadness.Thirdly,the musical plane.It is the ability to experience different musical elements,such as melodies,the rhythms,the harmonies,the tone colors etc.We usually listen to music on all three planes.3.2the mystery of Girl with a Pearl EarringThe painting Girl with a Pearl Earring is one of Dutch painter Johannes V ermeer’s masterworks.It shows a striking young woman wearing an exotic costume and a turban,peering over her shoulder straight out at the viewer.As the name implies,it uses a pearl earring for a focal point.It has been referred to as the Mona Lisa of the north,because,like Leonardo da Vinci’s painting,it appears to be a simple likeness of a woman with an enigmatic smile,yet which contains levels of meanings andquestions.So much mystery in the painting contributes to its worldwide popularity and generates a thoroughly rewarding novel and a well-composed film.UNIT 44.1work in corporate AmericaIn today’s American jobs are not what they used to be.Not long ago,when a f ather was asked about his job he could answer in terms that a child could come to grips with.Nowadays,when the parent take his offspring to his place of business in glass buildings that are really incomprehensive to children.What’s more,it’s safe bet that even grown men have trouble visualizing what other men does in their jobs with his day.Therefore,it’s not difficult to imagine a poor child mayanswer”mulling over” after it beats me the mysteries of work,when his friends asks him of his father’s job.4.2our supposedly exciting times are really rather dullLiving in a world of unprecedented/dazzling change,there are never been anything quite likeit.However,we are just ignorant of/about deeper historical patterns,take globalization for example,from historical context point of view,the world is almost meaningless.We simply do not live in a age of great technological innovation for all our enthusiasm about internet and iPod.With staggering 90 percent of all web traffic is local,we are always be told the Inter net has “opened up”the world.As the Chinese curse runs “May you live in interesting times”,it can bring chaos and anxiety in the in the wake.UNIT 55.1dinner at Joanne’sWhen a young black man arrives in a crowded and expensive restaurant,the head waiter makes him sit in the least comfortable place,even though a table has been booked for him and a “Ms Rogers”.When Ms Rogers arrives,the waiter realizes that she is a well-known Senator; and Ms Roger realizes that her friend has been treated badly because of the color of his skin.The waiter realizes his mistake too,and tries to make up for it,but it’s too late.5.2we theyThe writer uses stories about doing business between Swedes and Saudis to illustrate the differences between an individualist and a collectivist approach to business. They have different concepts of the role of personal relationships in business. The Swedes believe the business is donewith a company while the Saudis think it should be done with a person they know and trust.Then the writer compares the characteristics of the collectivist and those of the individualist.In the most collectivist societies,the families are usually extended families while in the individualist societies,nuclear families are prevalent.

新课标大英三Summary
大学英语3 第二版summaryU1 Active reading（1）In the fall of our final year, our mood changed. The relaxed atmosphere had disappeared, and the peer group pressure to work hard was strong. M eanwhile, at the back of everyone's mind was what we would do next afte r graduation. As for me, I wanted to travel, and I wanted to be a writer. I braced myself for some resistance to the idea from my father, who wante d me to go to law school, and follow his path through life.However, he supported what I wanted but he made me think about it b y watching the crabs. The cage was full of crabs. One of them was trying to escape, but each time it reached the top the other crabs pulled it back. I n the end it gave up lengthy struggle to escape and started to prevent othe r crabs from escaping. By watching crabs, my father told me not to be pul led back by others, and to get to know oneself better.U1 Active reading（2）Life is short. We never quite know when we become 1) coffin dwellers or 2) trampled ash in the rose garden of some local cemetery. So there’s no point in putting our dreams 3) on the back burner until 4) the right tim e arrives. Now is the time to do what we want to do. 5) Make the best of o ur short stay and 6) fill our life with the riches on offer so that when the r eaper arrives, we’ve achieved much instead of 7) regrets.U2 Active reading（1）The author’s family never believed in Santa myth, as her parents coul d not afford expensive gifts. In her mother’s view, the children have been brainwashed into believing the silly myth. So their family celebrated Chri stmas about a week after Dec. 25 and the kids got their gifts from after-C hristmas sale.On that year, the father lost his job and they had no money for Christ mas. On Christmas Eve,the father took each of the kids out into the deser t night one by one and asked them to pick out a star as their Christmas gif t. The author claimed Venus and when the sun starts to burn out and Eart h turns cold, every one here might want to move to Venus to get warm. A nd they'll have to get permission from your descendants first. The father’s imagination lead to a unique Christmas.U2 Active reading（2）Historically, childhood has undergone enormous transformations in ter ms of children’s responsibilities and parental expectations. Culturally, chi ldhood is socially constructed. The interplay of history and culture leads t o different understanding of childhood, consequently, it is advisable not t o impose ideas from one culture to understand childhood in another cultur e.U3 Active reading（1）For the sake of clarity, we 1) split up the process of listening to music into three hypothetical planes. Firstly, 2) the sensuous plane. It is a kind of 3) brainless but attractive state of mind engendered by the mere 4) sou nd appeal of the music. Secondly, 5) the expressive plane. It is when we b elieve each piece of music has a theme, which 6) mirrors a different world of feeling, such as gaiety, sadness. Thirdly, 7) the musical plane. It is the ability to experience different 8) musical elements, such as melodies, th e rhythms, the harmonies, the tone colors etc. We usually listen to music on all three planes.U3 Active reading（2）V-J Day in Times Square is a photograph by a 1) prominent photogra pher that portrays an American sailor kissing a woman in a white dress on 2) Victory over Japan Day in Times Square in New York City, on Augus t 14. Since its publication, it has 3) commanded the world’s attention. It b rims with perceived uncontrolled 4) passion and sexual 5) tension. Also, i t 6) ignites the imagination of people, who 7) devised story lines about w hat ever happened to the couple.Most important of all, it sketches for people a beautiful 8) vision of lif e after the Second World War, with a sprint towards a more 9) prosperousstandard of living and inventive ideal family life. Though the years pass, the photo will never fade and remind people of the 10) fond memory they have had.U4 Active reading（1）I can still remember the men who built the house. The master from the manor house found a clearing in the huge orchard which ran up and down the hills. I only see my neighbour side-on. I’ve never seen him from the f ront. Apart from the autumn, the groundsman brought a young woman ho me. I was filled with the sound of conversation and laughter. The woman looked after the garden around me, there was a riot of colours. With time going by, they had children and then grew up. But one day, I saw a postm an arrive with a bundle of letters, the woman cried out and fainted. Years later, they left without saying goodbye to me.Two middle-aged women spent several years here. I like them because they kept everything spick and span. The last person lived with me worki ng at home assembling furniture. We just kept each other company. He w alked very slowly using his hands to steady himself.As time passed, there are traces of everyone who has lived with me. Ho wever, there are my golden memories. But in fact, I look and feel my age .U4 Active reading（2）• Homesickness was traditionally experienced by American childre n during the long summer vacation when they received convenient childcare which was idealized by the parents as being great “fun”,while British children experienced homesickness at an even earlier age, when sons of the aristocracy were sent to boarding school at the age of seven. Nowadays, homesickness is usually first experienced by teenagers who leave home and go to college.• Then, what is homesickness? Is homesickness just associated with a lack of maturity? Actually, the modern term “homesickness” was coined in the 17th century to describe the feelings of Swiss merc enaries who missed their homeland while fighting elsewhere in Eur ope. In the18th and 19th century, people especially women who mi ssed their home were even considered virtuous.• British actors in Hollywood, sportsmen on long tours abroad, sold iers serving in foreign wars, business travellers and as well as the a uthor all admit how they suffer from and deal with extreme homesi ckness. In the recent years, people are more willing to talk about ho mesickness and it is believed that acknowledging homesickness ma y help avoid the risk of anxiety and depression. Therefore, instead of being immature or something to be ashamed of, homesickness isboth a painful longing to be back home, and an extremely common occurrence.U5 Active reading（1）When a young black man arrives in a crowded andexpensive restaurant , the head waiter makes him sit in the least comfortable place, even thoug h a table has been booked for him and a “Ms Rogers”.When Ms Rogers arrives, the waiter realizes that she is a well-known S enator; and Ms Rogers realizes that her friend has been treated badly beca use of the colour of his skin. The waiter realizes his mistake too, and tries to make up for it, but it is too late.U5 Active reading（2）The writer uses stories about doing business between Swedes and Saud is to illustrate the differences between an individualist and a collectivist a pproach to business. They have different concepts of the role of personal relationships in business. The Swedes believe the business is done with a company while the Saudis think it should be done with a person they kno w and trust. Then the writer compares the characteristics of the collectivis t and those of the individualist.In most collectivist societies, the families are usually extended families while in the individualist societies, nuclear families are prevalent. People consider themselves as part of a “we” group or in-group in the collectivist societies. In contrast, the individualists think of themselves as “I”, their personal identity which is distinct from other peoples’. A practical and ps ychological dependence relationship develops between the person and the in-group in the collectivist societies. However, rarely do people depend o n a group in the individualist societies.U6 Active reading（1）As a young boy, the writer (1) overheard his parents talking about helpi ng his father do the milking early every morning. He realized that he had(2) taken his father’s love for granted so on Christmas morning he (3) rose very early and (4) crept downstairs and did the milking all alone. When his father discovered what he had done, he (5) clutched the boy in his arm s. Now, as an older man, he decides to (6) trimmed the Christmas tree and tie his present and letter to his (7) beloved wife before she gets up.U6 Active reading（2）There is concern among the Chinese scholars and students that Christm as has an increasing impact on the Chinese culture. Due to the changes in the past two decades, we Chinese do seem to attach a lot more attention t o Christmas today than we did in the past.In fact, be it in China or in the West, a festival carries the same meanin g featured by celebrations, a feast or humble meal, relaxation and a break from the skulduggery or the mundane affairs.However, no one can be left untouched by the festivals in the Gregoria n calendar though we follow the lunar calendar. The festive spirit of the West has influenced us.The fear of the impact of the decadence of the West on the Chinese cult ure is not well grounded, as no culture in the world is free of decadence. Consequently, we Chinese should not follow the West blindly, but accept the goodness the Western festivals offer and practice what they stand for.。

Make the best of our short stay and fill our life with the riches on offer so that when the reaper arrives,we’ve achieved much instead of regrets.UNIT 22.1supermanThe extract from Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams by Sylvia Plath is a combination of her real life and imaginary life in her childhood.In the real life,Plath was a winner of the prize for drawing the best Civil Defense signs,lived by an airport and had an Uncle who bore resemblance to Superman.In her imagination,the airport was her Mecca and Jerusalem because of her flying dreams.Superman fulfilled her dream at the moment.David Stirling,a bookish boy,also worship Superman.During the recess at school,he and the author played Superman pared with their school-mates who played the routine games,they felt they were outlaws but had a sense of windy superiority.They also found a stand-in,Sheldon Fein, who later invented tortures.2.2cultual childhoodsHistorically,childhood has undergone enormous transformations in terms of children’s responsibilities and parental expectations.Culturally,childhood is socially constructed.The interplay of history and cultural leads to different understanding of childhood,consequently it is advisable not to impose ideas from one culture to understand childhood in another culture.UNIT 33.1how we listenFor the sake of clarify,we split up the process of listening to music into three hypothetical planes.Firstly,the sensuous plane.It is a kind of brainless but attractive state of mind engenderedby the mere sound appeal of the music.Secondly,the expressive plane.It is when we believe each piece of music has a theme,which mirrors a different world of feeling,such asgaiety,sadness.Thirdly,the musical plane.It is the ability to experience different musical elements,such as melodies,the rhythms,the harmonies,the tone colors etc.We usually listen to music on all three planes.3.2the mystery of Girl with a Pearl EarringThe painting Girl with a Pearl Earring is one of Dutch painter Johannes V ermeer’s masterworks.It shows a striking young woman wearing an exotic costume and a turban,peering over her shoulder straight out at the viewer.As the name implies,it uses a pearl earring for a focal point.It has been referred to as the Mona Lisa of the north,because,like Leonardo da Vinci’s painting,it appears to be a simple likeness of a woman with an enigmatic smile,yet which contains levels of meanings and questions.So much mystery in the painting contributes to its worldwide popularity and generates a thoroughly rewarding novel and a well-composed film.UNIT 44.1work in corporate AmericaIn today’s American jobs are not what they used to be.Not long ago,when a f ather was asked about his job he could answer in terms that a child could come to grips with.Nowadays,when the parent take his offspring to his place of business in glass buildings that are really incomprehensive to children.What’s more,it’s safe bet that even grown men have trouble visualizing what other men does in their jobs with his day.Therefore,it’s not difficult to imagine a poor child mayanswer”mulling over” after it beats me the mysteries of work,when his friends asks him of his father’s job.4.2our supposedly exciting times are really rather dullLiving in a world of unprecedented/dazzling change,there are never been anything quite likeit.However,we are just ignorant of/about deeper historical patterns,take globalization for example,from historical context point of view,the world is almost meaningless.We simply do not live in a age of great technological innovation for all our enthusiasm about internet and iPod.With staggering 90 percent of all web traffic is local,we are always be told the Inter net has “opened up”the world.As the Chinese curse runs “May you live in interesting times”,it can bring chaos and anxiety in the in the wake.UNIT 55.1dinner at Joanne’sWhen a young black man arrives in a crowded and expensive restaurant,the head waiter makes him sit in the least comfortable place,even though a table has been booked for him and a “Ms Rogers”.When Ms Rogers arrives,the waiter realizes that she is a well-known Senator; and Ms Roger realizes that her friend has been treated badly because of the color of his skin.The waiter realizes his mistake too,and tries to make up for it,but it’s too late.5.2we theyThe writer uses stories about doing business between Swedes and Saudis to illustrate the differences between an individualist and a collectivist approach to business. They have different concepts of the role of personal relationships in business. The Swedes believe the business is donewith a company while the Saudis think it should be done with a person they know and trust.Then the writer compares the characteristics of the collectivist and those of the individualist.In the most collectivist societies,the families are usually extended families while in the individualist societies,nuclear families are prevalent. People consider themselves as part of a “we”group or in-group in the collectivist societies.In contrast, the individualist think of themselves as “I”,their personal identity which is distinct from other people’s. A practical and psychological dependence relationship develops between the person and the in-group in the collectivist societies. However, rarely do people depend on a group in the individualist societies.UNIT 66.1 Last man downThe text from Last Ma Down offers an eyewitness account of defining historical event of 9/11 attack from the perspective of Richard Picciotto, a firefighter; his story is that of a man, a hero,and a tragic event that inspired the nation. His recount isn’t one of death and destruction, but a celebration of life and it’s unpredictable nature.6.2 Eleanor RooseveltThe passage offers a hero who contrasts with brave firefighters. This time she is a woman of power and previlege who still wanted to devote herself to the sucess she believed in.Living in a male-dominated world, Eleanor Roosevelt showed growing concern for women’s issues, along with those for labor issues,youth and civil rights issues.Eleanor created new First Lady profile. She held a press conference for the female only. She was a great supporter for FDR, her wheel-bound husband, whose career as the US president offered her opportunity to come into her own.After FDR’s departure, she still held public posts to use her power to her beliefs.Anna Eleanor Roosevelt never ran on a par with men, she set the place.。
