PETS公共英语三英语教材
Kip KeinoKipchoge Keino is a modest man，and it takes prodding to get the great Kenyan runner to recall how he felt on Oct ，20，1968 — when he won his first gold medal，in the 1,500 meters in Mexico City.The day hadn’t started out well，Keino was suffering from stomach pains that later turned out to be a severe gallbladder infection. His doctors advised against running；he ignored them.During the race，Keino was so focused on competing against American ace Jim Ryun that，in retrospect，“Without watching a video, I wouldn’t know what happened at the finish.” He does remember what happened next. “I ran an honor lap. I ran it to celebrate and to let my body recover. I felt overcome by the excitement.” It was not the only memorable event in his life that day. Back home, his wife, Phyllis, gave birth to their third daughter, named Milka Olympia Chelagat in celebration of her father’s victory.Keino went on to win a silver medal in the 5,000 meters in Mexico City and a gold and a silver four years later in Munich. He the n became Kenya’s Olympic running coach from 1976 to 1986, furthering his nation’s dominance in distance events. Kenyan runners have captured 32 Olympic track medals since 1964 and won the last six consecutive Boston Marathons. This summer, Keino will be in Atlanta as chief of the 120-athlete Kenyan delegation, which could include his son Martin, 23, a former NCAA 5,000-meter champion at the 1,5000 meters.But Keio’s athletic accomplishments are not the only reason he is a hero in the town of Eldoret in nort hwestern Kenya. Thirty years ago, Keino and his wife—who now have seven children of their own—began taking orphans into their home. Their house became so crowded that they raised funds to build a dormitory and a dining hall on a nearby farm Keino owns. Income to support the facility comes from the farm, his sports shop and fees he has received from the Kenyan government over the years. Today, 73 children and young adults—aged 2 to 22—live on the farm. “I think I have been lucky,” Keino says. “Now what is important is how I use what I have to help others.”Lesson 2A Gift of New LifeFirst came a boy weighing 3 pounds 14 ounces: Robert Jared Screws. After Robert Jared came his three sisters: Briannia Rae, 3 pounds 1 ounce; Brinkley Faye, 3 pounds 13 ounces; and Buckley Lenay, 4 pounds 2 ounces. All were tiny, but they were strong, healthy babies. In the hallway outside the operating room, friends and relatives wept and cheered as the quad wheeled them by, one by one, in their incubators.The babies stayed in the hospital about a month. Keith went there too, for more chemotherapy, and the nurses took one or two babies at a time to his room for a visit. That seemed to help him more than the medication.Then came a wonderful surprise. When we were ready to go home, we learned that a physicians’ fund had provided a brand-new van for us, complete with four infant car seats. Keith was waiting for us at hone, frail mow and in constant pain, but also very happy.The whole community of Swainsboro and surrounding towns united in trying to help us. Countless women offered to baby-sit. Members of Keith’s high school class prepared dinners for us twice a week. All sorts of fund-raising events were organized.A Kroger store on Wilmington Island near Savannah do nated a year’s supply of diapers and other baby needs. That helped, because the quads required 40 to 50 diapers a day!A man named Ricky Stevens came to measure our farmhouse for central air-conditioning, but went away concerned that the house was too small for six people. That night he could not sleep. He consulted a friend in real estate, Ken Warnock, and the two of them invited a group of Swainsboro businessmen to lunch. By the time Lunch was over, they had enough pledges to begin building a new house.There was a site on our land with a view of the pasture and grazing cattle. Our new house would be built there, a spacious home with five bedrooms-a master bedroom and one for each of the quads.As spring came to Georgia, Keith’s health continued to decline. Still, he took great delight in his four babies. In the mornings he would hold them and play with them and help feed them. He got to be good at handling two bottles at a time. Before we left home for a chemo-treatment or doctor’s appointment Keith would spend time alone with each baby. Later in the spring another operation was necessary, and complications followed. It became difficult for Keith to talk or breathe, and at last consciousness. His final words to me were,“I love you.”The doctors put him on a respirator, but they said it was only as matter of hours. I sat beside him holding his hand and whispering,“Be at peace. Be at peace.”And finally, on June 11, peace did come. He was 32 years old.Life went on. Ground was broken for the new house on a blue-and-gold day in December. The quads were old enough to stand, and each was old enough to stand, and each was given a little gilded shovel to mark the occasion. Many friends and neighbors were there, and the mayor of Swainsboro put our feelings into words:“We hope that when these babies are grown, they will look at this house and understand how much their father was respected and admired by everyone who knew him.”I have gone back to teaching. Devoted friends and relatives and fully qualified helpers take good care of the quads while I am away. Without Keith’s illness we never would have recognized the amazing goodness that lies in people. The outpouring of love and compassion and caring that has surrounded us is almost beyond belief. One life was taken away from me, but four other lives were given to me to sustain and to comfort me. Facing death with Keith made me realize how precious life is. I cherish it and am grateful for it every single day.lesson 3The Cause of the El Nino PhenomenonEl Nino is the Spanish name for the baby Jesus. The phenomenon is so-called because warm water moving across the Pacific traditionally reaches South America around Christmas. Scientists have now applied the term El Nino to the major warming episodes over large South American coastal areas and westernly along the equator and the Dateline area. Scientists noted the El Nino has a return period of four to five years and lasts between 12—18 months.In the late 1960s, it became apparent that the year-to-year variations in the sea surface temperature and consequently El Nino events, were closely linked to the Southern Oscillation, a relationship between atmospheric pressure over the southeastern Pacific and Indian Ocean. When pressure is high in the Pacific Ocean, it tends to be low in the Indian Ocean from Africa to Australia. These conditions are associated with low temperatures in both these areas and rainfall varies in the direction opposite the pressure.Thus, the combination of El Nino and Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the linkage atmospheric and oceanic events and involves changes in circulations of the atmosphere and oceans across the Pacific Basin. The strongest El Nino this century occurred in 1982—1983 and resulted in droughts and disastrous forest fires in Indonesia and Australia, wreaking economic damage of at least US $8 billion.A major warming of the ocean waters across the eastern and central tropical Pacific Ocean, known as ENSO, has developed since March 1997. The El Nino developed very rapidly during April—May, and reached strong intensity by June. This event is currently comparable in magnitude and extent to the 1982/1983 episode.lesson 4Our Changing DietWhat do most Americans and Canadians usually eat? Many people think that the typical North American diet consists of fast food-hamburgers, hot dogs, French fries, pizza, fried chicken, and so on. They think Americans and Canadians also eat a lot of convenience foods, usually frozen or caned, and junk food-candy, cookies, potato chips, and other things without much nutritional value. Unfortunately, this description is mot totally inaccurate. The American diet is generally high in sugar, salt, fat, and cholesterol, and these substances can cause health problems.However, some people’s eating habits are changing. They are becoming more interested in good health, and nutrition is an important part of health. North Americans are eating less red meat and fewer eggs, and they are eating more chicken and fish. Chicken and fish contain less fat than meat and eggs. Many people are also buying more fresh vegetables and eating them raw or cooked quickly in very little water in order to keep the vitamins.Restaurant menus are also changing to reflect people’s growing concern with good nutrition. The “typical” North American diet now includes food from many different countries. More ethnic restaurants are opening in big cities in the United States and Canada. Foods from China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, India and the Middle East are very popular. Even fast-food places now offer “lean” (low-fat) hamburgers, broiled or roasted (instead of fried) chicken, and salad bars with a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables.How are we going to eat in the future? Because we now know about the importance of nutrition, we will probably continue to eat more fish and vegetables and less meat. We will still buy convenience foods in supermarkets, but frozen foods may be more nutritious and canned foods may have less salt and sugar. Our j unk food will not be “junk” at all because instead of candy bars we will eat “nutrition bars” with a lot of vitamins and protein. In the future, our diet will probably be even more interesting and healthful than it is now.In the United States and Canada, food is a very common topic of conversation. People are always discussing new dishes, restaurants, diet plans, and ideas about nutrition. The arguments about the best diets and foods will continue: Are vegetables better than a diet of cooked foods? Is a little alcohol good for relaxation, or is all alcohol harmful? Is some caffeine good for energy, or is caffeine always bad? Can yellow vegetables really prevent cancer? Will eating garlic help avoid heart attacks? One thing we do know for sure:the key to good nutition is balance. How do we achieve that balance? We can choose foods from a variety of sources, control the quantities that we eat, limit fats, and exercise.lesson 5I Did It“I did it.” This is what newly-crowned Olympic gymnastics champion Li Xiaoshuang wanted to say most after his victory here on Sunday night at the 25th Olympic Games.Li scored 9.925 points by successfully completing his somersault tuck, becoming the first male gymnast ever to execute this maneuver in the optional apparatus finals. The program was extremely difficult. Failure could have been met by his head slamming the mat. Former Soviet Valery Liukin had once done this tuck in the team competition.“all the gymnasts before me had pretty high scores and this was the only way out for me,” said Li. “I knew I could end up either first or last.” Li also won a bronze in the rings with a 9.862.Grigori Misutin of the Unified Team scored 9.875 points to share second place with Japanese Yukio Iketani.Right after his safe landing, Li rushed to his coach and former world parallel bars champion Huang Yubing. The two broke into tears and embraced each other after the final gymnast, Vitali Scherbo of the Unified Team, failed to surpass Li. Li’s gold was China’s first in the floor exercises since 1984, when Li Ning won at the Los Angeles Olympic Games. Until the 1987 World Championships in Amsterdam where Lou Yun won the floor exercise, the event was dominated by the former Soviet Union gymnasts. “Though the floor is his specialty, Li still performed above his normal level,” said coach Huang, who shed from the award ceremony and watched it on TV at the back of the gymnasium.“It’s not an easy job,” Li said. “It’s the result of my hard training. And that three backward somersaults was the first rime that I have done it successfully.”“I want to thank my parents and especially my coach Huang who contributed greatly to my success.”Li joined the national team at the end of 1989 and his highest international achievement was first place in the floor exercises of the Beijing Asian Games.At last year’s Indianapolis World Championships, he was the best non-Soviet gymnast in the all-around competition, placing fourth, though he failed to score higher than 9.75 points in any apparatus. He was only sixth in the floor competition. He was still so little-known that even with his World Championship achievement here at the Olympics, computer statistics erroneously listed him as h aving done badly competing in two women’s events, the uneven bars and the balance beam.Li said he learned a lot here in Barcelona, both in gymnastics and manhood. He said in the team all-around competition, he repeatedly got low scores, and did not get the amount of points he should get for the degree of difficulty and execution of routines. But he kept the complaints to himself.Yet his execution in the floor final was so perfect that nobody doubted he was the gold medal winner.The 18-year-old from Hubei Province said that his regular training was not only technical but also mental. He said to himself three times, “Start and leap, accelerate and land,” which he said was crucial in winning.Li also took part in the 1990 Seattle Goodwill Games and finished second in the floor exercises, and is now regarded as the Chinese team’s best all-around gymnast, especially after former best Li Ning missed both in the pommel horse and high bar finals Sunday night.lesson 6Our Changing Lifestyles:Trends and FadsThese days urban lifestyles seem to change very fast. It is more than just clothing and hairstyles that are in style one year and out of date the next; it’s a whole way of living. One year people wear sunglasses on top of their heads and wear jeans and boots; they drink white wine and eat sushi at Japanese restaurants; for exercise they jog several miles a day. However, the next year everything has changed. Women wear long skirts; people drink expensive water from France and eat pasta at ltalian restaurants; everyone seems to be exercising at health clubs. Then, suddenly, it has changed again. People wear only natural fabric (safe for the environment); they drink gourmet coffee and eat Thai food; for both leisure and exercise, they go rollerblading.Almost nothing in modern life escapes the influence of fashion; food, music, exercise, book, slang words, movies, furniture, places to visit, even names go in and out of fashion. For a while, it seems that all mew parents are naming their babies Heather, Dawn, Eric, or Adam. These names are “in.” then, suddenly, these names are “out,” and Tiffany and Jason are “in.” It’s almost impossible to write about specific fads because these interests that people enthusiastically follow can change very quickly.In th e United States, even people can be “in” or “out.” Like people in any country, Americans enjoy following the lives of celebrities: movie stars, sports heroes, famous artists, politicians, and the like. But Americans also pay a lot of attention to people who have no special ability and have done nothing very special. In 1981, for example, an unknown elderly woman appeared in a TV commercial in which she looked at a vary small hamburger and complained loudly, “Where’s the beef?” These three words made her fam ous. Suddenly she appeared in magazines and newspapers and on TV shows. She was immediately popular. She was “in.” In 1987, an exterminator in Dallas, Texas, decided that he would be very happy if he could find more customers for his small business; he needed more people to pay him to kill the insects and rats in their houses.He put an unusual advertisement in a Dallas newspaper. He offered to pay $1,000 to the person who could find the biggest cockroach. This strange offer made him suddenly famous. There were stories about him nationwide-from New York to California. He was “in.” However, this kind of fame does not last long. Such people are famous for a very short time.This is the essence, the central, quality,of a fad. It doesn’t last long. Some fads dis appear before we have all even heard of them. How many people remember Green peace swimsuits? They changed color to indicate polluted water. And then there was “Beethoven Bread.” Popular in Japan in 1994, it was expensive-$20 for one loaf. It was made while classical music played in the kitchen. The woman who created this bread emphasized that “bread doesn’t like rock music.”A person who participates in fads should remember that they come and go very fast, and they often come back in style after 10 to 15 y ears of being “out.” It might be a good idea never to throw anything away. Mickey Mouse watches andlesson 7Compulsive SpendersAre you a compulsive spender, or do you hold on to your money as long as possible? Are you a bargain hunter? Would you rather use charge accounts than pay cash? Your answer to those questions will reflect your personality. According to psychologists, our individual money habits not only show our beliefs and values, but can also develop from past problems. Experts in psychology believe that for many people, money is an important symbol of strength and influence. Husbands who complain about their wives’ spending habits may be afraid that they are loosing power in their marriage. Wives, on the other hand, may waste huge amounts of money because they are angry with their husbands. In addition, many people consider money a symbol of love. They spend it on their families and friends to express love, or they buy themselves expensive presents because they need love.People can be addicted to different things, for example, alcohol, drugs, certain foods, or even television. They are compulsive in their addictions, that is, they must a satisfy these needs to feel comfortable. In the same way, according to psychologists, compulsive spenders must spend more money. For those who buy on credit, further more, charge accounts are even more exciting than money: in other words, these people feel that with credit they can do anything. Their pleasure at spending enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasure they get from the things they buy.There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don’t need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budget, but they are really playing an exciting game: when they can buy something for less than other people, they are winning.It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider people’s need for love, power or influence, as well as their values, beliefs and opinions, in their advertising and sales methods.Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy” to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money. They give them “assignments.” If a person buys something in every store that he enters, for instance, a therapist might teach him self-discipline in this way. On the first of his therapy, he must go into a store, for five minutes, and then leave. On the second day, he should stay for ten minutes and try something on. On the third day he stays for fifteen minutes, asks the sales clerk a question, but does not buy anything. Soon he will learn that nothing bad will happen to him if he doesn’s buy anything, and he can solve the problem of his compulsive buying.lesson 8Stories of ChristmasIn many countries of the world, The celebration of Christmas on December 25th is a high point of the year. From November onward, it is impossible to forget that Christmas is coming. Colored lights decorate many town centers and shops, along with shimmy decorations and artificial snow painted on shop windows. In streets and shops, “Christmas trees” (real or plastic evergreen conifer trees) will also be decorated with lights and Christmas ornaments. Shopping centers become busier as December approaches and often stay open till late. By mid-December, most homes will also be decorated with Christmas trees, colored lights and paper or plastic decorations around the rooms. These days many more people also decorate garden trees or house walls with colored electric lights, a habit, which has been long popular in USA. In many countries, most people post Christmas greeting cards to their friends and families, and these cards will be hung on the walls of their homes.The custom of sending Christmas cards started in Britain in 1840 when the first “Penny Post” public postal deliveries began. (Helped by the new railway system, the public postal service was the 19th cen tury’s communication revolution, just as e-mail is for us today.) As printing method improved, Christmas cards were produced in large numbers from about 1860. Today, pictures are often about jokes, winter pictures, Father Christmas, or romantic scenes of life in past times. Father Christmas (or Santa Claus) has become the symbol of Christmas. Pictures will be seen everywhere of the old man with long white beard, red coat, and bag of toys. Children are taught that he brings them presents the night before Christmas, and many children up to the age 7 or 8 really believe this is true. In most countries, it is said that he lives near the North Pole, and arrives through the sky on a sledge (snow-cart) pulled by reindeer. He comes into houses down the chimney at midnight and places presents for the children in socks or bags by their beds or in front of the family Christmas tree. In shops or at children’s parties, someone will dress up as Father Christmas and give small presents to children, or ask them what gifts they want for Christmas. Christmas can be a time of magic and excitement for children.Father Christmas is based on a real person, St. Nicholas, which explains his other name “Santa Claus” which comes from the Dutch “Sinterklaas.” Nicholas was a Christian le ader from Myra (in modern-day Turkey) in the 4th century AD. He was very shy, and wanted to give money to the poor people without their knowing about it. It is said that one day, he climbed up the roof of a house and dropped a purse of money down the chimney. It happened to land in the stocking which a girl had put to dry by the fire! This may explain the belief that Father Christmas comes down the chimney and places gifts in children’s stockings.In English speaking countries, the day following Christmas D ay is called “Boxing Day.” This word comes from the custom which started in the Middle Ages around 800 years ago: Churches would open their “alms box” (boxes in which people had placed gifts of money) and distribute the contents to poor people in the neighborhood on the day after Christmas. The tradition continues today.lesson 9White HouseThe USA Chief Executive Mansion, White House, stands on a knoll on the Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington overlooking the Potomac River. The cornerstone was laid in 1792 and in 1800 it was initially completed. Since the second President John Adams first moved into the house, all the US presidents have lived and worked there. However, in 1814, when the English was at war with America, the White House was set on fire by the British army. Only its enclosing wall survived but stained with scorch marks. It took three years to hide the White House renovated and be available for use.In order to hide the scars of war, the burnt wall was covered with many layers of white paint, hence the name White House was given. It was President Theodore Roosevelt who officially named it first in 1902.The White House is an 18-acre-estate, yet the major of the ground is filled with lawns, gardens, tennis courts, outdoor swimming pools, bowling alleys, game rooms, movie theaters, horseshoe pits and other subsidiary facilities. The 26-meter highs 3-floored main section consisting of 132 rooms is mot quite spacious. In the west are the magnificent State Dining Room and the bright and commodious East Room which is the place for balls and art performances. The other three smaller rooms are resplendent in their decorations. Each of them has its distinctive features and has its name matching the colors of the wall, ceilings, carpets, and the like in it. The Blue Room in the middle is an oval office used officially for receiving heads of state and foreign diplomats. The Red Room in the west characterized in the US style in early 19th century, is a family parlor, and the Green Room is used as an all-purpose parlor for playing cards and chess or having a chat. The second floor is president family’s private living quarters, and on the third floor are offices of president’s secretaries’ store rooms and service center.Room, etc., the most important one is the Oval Office, the heartland for president to formulate policies and make decisions. Just outside the Oval Office is the charming Rose blooming with flowers and plants, where state dinners and ceremonial events are sometimes held. In the East Wing, are offices of First Ladies’ and wording staffs. The Kennedy Garden lying outside of those offices is for press conferences and tea parties. The well-known South Lawn is often used for arrival ceremonies in honor of visiting heads of state.lesson 10Paris, France A short time later our plane began to slow and bank. Lovely, green England came into view, but we soon left England behind. After watching the English Channel slip by, France appeared, the land carved into squares of green and brown. Paris, lovely, green romantic Paris, a city of contrasts-I fell in love with her as so many others have before me. Magnificent modern buildings were everywhere, but in between them stood tiny ancient shops and apartments. As long as I live, I’ll remember my first night in Paris when I stood on Montamarte, t he highest hill in the city, the lights of Paris spread in a panorama below while the cool autumn breeze whispered through the trees. I could not believe I was really there!The next morning, we enjoyed a tour of Paris, which is just as beautiful by day as by night. The tree-lined streets were spotless, for each morning, water from the River Seine flows from drains onto the streets where shopkeepers with long reed brooms sweep the streets clean. We drove past many famous restaurants, shops and apartment houses. At the end of the most famous street in Paris, the Champs Elysse, stood the golden Arch of Triumph through which the Allies in World War Ⅱ marched after driving defeated Germans from the city.As we walked through the grounds around Notre Dame, I gazed above me at imposing Gothic towers silhouetted like giant sentinels against the gray sky. From the top of the Cathedral wall rain spouts jutted about every twelve feet, each spout made in the face of an animal, the rain pouring from its mouth.Inside the Cathedral, exquisite, elegant rosette stained glass windows gleamed from a sudden burst of sunlight forcing its way through the clouds as though heaven had opened long enough to light them for us. One of the windows had been badly damaged during World War Ⅱ. All the colors in the replacement glass perfectly match the undamaged window except blue; the formula for this shade of blue had been lost and could not be duplicated no matter how hard the artists tried. To my untrained eye, it was undetected.The Eiffel Tower, an extraordinary edifice made of interlocking steel girders soared into the sky, glittering brightly。

Rose：Just one more thing...could you drop off this film at a camera shop? T om：Sure, if I have time. Rose：Thank you very much!unit7-4.----------Title：-3.Tom asks Rose if she needs something.Question：What will Tom do in the post office?Question：What other things does Rose ask him to do?Question：How much does Rose give to Tom?Man：Mary Mary：Students in adolescence are likely to be confused mentally,to be subject to involuntary distractions and romantic dreaminess.They are basically timid or self-conscious;they lack frankness and are usually sensitive but hate to admit it.They are motivated either by great ambition, probably out of all proportion to their capabilities, or by extreme laziness caused by the fear of not attaining their objectives.Fundamentally they want to be kept busy but they refuse to admit it.They are usually willing to work, but they hate to work without obtaining the results they think they should obtain.Their critical faculties are beginning to develop and they are critical of their instructors and of the materials they are given to learn.They are beginning to feel the pressure of time;and although they seldom say so, they really want to be consulted and given an opportunity to direct their own affairs, but they need considerable guidance.They seldom admit that they need this guidance and they frequently rebel against it, but if it is intelligently offered they accept it with enthusiasm.It is in this period that students can be most easily and permanently influenced.Their outlook on life is usually extremely exaggerated.They are either far too modest or too boastful.They are much more susceptible to the influence of a strong personality than that of a great intelligence.Of all periods of life, this is what may be called the"plastic age".Title：-4.The following monologue is about the mentality ofstudents in adolescence.Question：Are students in adolescence very frank?Question：Do they like their teachers and textbooks?Question：Why is this period of time called the "plastic age"?unit7-5.----------Title：LifeMan：Mary Mary：Sometimes, people come into your life and you realize that they are there for some purpose- to teach you a lesson, or to help you to know who you are or who you want to become.You'd never know who these people may be, your friend, your classmate, your neighbor, your co-worker, your teacher, or even a stranger, but they will deeply affect your life in some way. Mary：And sometimes things happen to you that may seem unfair, painful and horrible at first, but later, you realize that without overcoming those difficulties you would never know your strength, willpower or potential.Everything happens for a reason.Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck.Illness, great achievement, love, injury and failure all come to test the limits of your soul.Without these tests, life would be like a straight and flat road, but it goes nowhere.It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and completely meaningless. Mary：Those people who affect your life, and the failure and the success you experience can help you to create who you are and who you become.Even the bad experiences can be learned from.In fact, they are the most important ones.If someone breaks your heart, or hurts you, please forgive them, for they helped you to learn about the importance of being careful when you open your heart.If someone loves you, love them back, because they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things. Mary：You can make of your life anything you wish.Appreciate every moment and take everything from those moments as possible as you can because you may never be able to experience them again.Talk to people who you have never talked to before, and when they talk, you'd better listen to them.Let yourself fall in love, then break free and set your sights high.Tell yourself you are a great person and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, it will be difficult for others to believe in you.Make every day meaningful and interesting.Create your own life and live without regrets.Love your life and you may have some pleasant, cheerful and happy hours. Mary：If we are strong enough to forgive, brave enough to love, generous enough to rejoice in other's happiness, we can make great achievements in our own lives.。

PETS3全国英语等级考试三级教材-教材译文
Unit01独白以下独白讲述了著名的美国人本杰明•富兰克林的生平。
“如果您一死一烂就不会被遗忘，要么写值得读的东西，要么做值得写的东西。
”美国从未忘记本杰明•富兰克林，因为他俩都做到了。
他以成为科学家，发明家，政治家，印刷家，哲学家，音乐家和经济学家而闻名。
今天，我们纪念本•富兰克林成为我们的开国元勋之一，也是美国最伟大的公民之一。
他于1706年出生在马萨诸塞州的波士顿。
他的父母都是清教徒。
他们离开英格兰，搬到马萨诸塞州的英国殖民地，以逃避对其宗教的迫害。
富兰克林（Franklin）十岁时就离开了学校，并为父亲工作了两年。
然后他去看哥哥的报纸。
他16岁时成为本文的编辑。
然后他去了费城，买了自己的报纸。
他工作努力，到24岁时是那里最成功的人之一。
1732年，富兰克林出版了《可怜的理查德年鉴》。
大多数年历包含有关农民的信息，例如有关一年中的几天和几周以及天气的信息。
富兰克林（Franklin）在他的年历中加入了关于生活观察的明智说法；其中一些俗语今天仍然很出名。
例如，“早睡早起使一个男人健康，富有和明智”，“不浪费，不想要”，和“节省一分钱就是一分钱。
”#救护车女孩#当我成为志愿者EMT时，我的朋友感到困惑。
他们知道我对生病和垂死的人感到非常恐惧。
如果道路上发生事故，我会把头塞在手中，以免看到鲜血或碎玻璃。
我和我丈夫已经结婚30年了。
我们喜欢旅行，阅读和写作。
但是在52岁的时候，我感到自己陷入了中年放克，与他人隔绝。
有一天，我经过当地的消防站，看到一个标语：“想要的志愿者：消防/ EMT。
”EMT部分指出了我胆怯的一切-我对死亡和疾病的恐惧。
如果这样做的话，也许我可以帮助他人，也可以通过面对最让我感到恐惧的东西来拯救自己。
随着时间的流逝，我得以克服恐惧。
现在我明白，我曾经与上帝最亲近的是在一辆救护车的背后。
当我急忙帮助生病的陌生人时，我是比自己更大的一部分。
有时，我会真正与一个我以前从未见过的人建立联系，就像我与Nellie一样。

Someone you had great confidence in，surely．But several lines of research show that our instincts about where to mm to for counsel are often not completely correct．My research looks at prejudices that affect how people use advice，including why they often blindly follow recommendations from people who —as far as they know—are as knowledgeable as they are．In studies I conducted with Don Moore of Carnegie Mellon University，for example，I found mat people tend to overvalue advice when the problem they’re addressing is hard and to undervalue it when the problem is easy．In our experiments．subjects were asked to guess the weight of people in various pictures，some of which were in focus and some of which wereunclear．For each picture，subjects guessed twice：the first time without advice and the second time with input from another participant．When the pictures were in focus，we found，subjects tended to discount the advice；apparently，they were confident in their ability to guess correctly．When the pictures were unclear，subjects leaned heavily on me advice of others and seemed less secure about their initial opinion．Because they misjudged the value of the advice they received--consistently overvaluing or undervaluing it depending on the difficulty of the problem—our subjects did not make the best guesses overall．They would have done better if they’d considered the advice equally，and to a moderate degree，on both hard and easy tasks.Another advice—related prejudice I've found people compels to overvalue advice that they pay for．In one study conducted，subjects answered different sets of questions about American history．Before answering some of the questions, they could get advice on the correct answer from another subject whom they knew was no more expert than they were．In one version of the experiment，people could get advice for free，while in another version，they paid for it．When they paid for advice，people tended to have firm belief in it，I suspect，by a combination of sunk-cost prejudice and the nearly instinctual belief that cost and quality are linked．51．In the face of a mission—critical decision，people tend to __________．[A]trust their own efforts[B]rely on research findings[C]get affected by other’s opinion[D]seek help from the more knowledgeable52．Research shows that when faced with difficult problems people often __________．[A]discount others’ advice[B]overlook others’ advice[C]disagree with others’ advice[D]over-rely on others’ advice53．The first experiment tries to prove how objective conditions __________．[A]strengthen people’s initial opinion[B]strengthen people’s self-confidence[C]influence people’s response to advice[D]influence people’s guess of weight loss54．It can be inferred that people are likely to __________．[A]undervalue free advice[B]overvalue peer’s advice[C]misinterpret specialist’s advice[D]misjudge their instinctual belief55．The two experiments mentioned in the text reveal __________．[A]how to follow others’ advice[B]how to understand others’ advice[C]what causes people to seek advice[D]what affects people’s attitude to adviceText 3Top National Health Service(NHS)nurses will be able to earn $40，000 a year without leaving frontline patient care in a modification to salary structures． New“supernurse”grades will be created to enable the best staff to increase their salaries without having to move into management desk jobs Currently the most senior NHS nurses can earn a maximum$28，000 a year unless they are willing to withdraw from the frontline and become administrators．Hundreds of experienced and highly-qualified nurses are lost to patient care every year because of this oddity·While only a few thousand of Britain’s 332，000 NHS nurses will qualify for the$40，000 plus salary. Fast track promotion schemes and a simpler grading system will increase the pay of many more．The governmentannounced that a new simplified career structure would see just four grades replacing the existing six．Nurses will begin their careers as healthcare assistants before moving up to registered practitioner grade，followed by senior registered practitioner and ultimately consultant practitioner and a$40，000salary．“Nurses are rising to the challenge of modernization，”said a government official“These proposals will help them improve their professional role further and provide a better service to Patients·We do not think mat in order to be paid more，nurses should have to move into management·Nurses working at the sharpened of patient care should have a career structure which no longer penalizes them for wanting to stay there．”The Nursing Strategy will include proposals to allow more flexible training courses and Improve opportunities for qualified nurses who have left the profession to return in part-time roles·The Royal College of Nursing welcomed the reforms．The top salary level falls into line with figures it had presented to ministers．56 Hundreds of experienced nurses are lost to patient care every year because they__________·[A]dislike the nursing job[B]are dissatisfied with their pay[C]are replaced by“super nurses”[D]lack further training for the profession57．The new system will mostly benefit those who__________·[A]move into management[B]work on a part time basis[C]have retired from the nursing job[D]have reached the top of the system58．The new career structure is different from the existing one in its__________．[A]quality of nurses’ services[B]possibility of a job transfer[C]opportunities for promotion[D]simplicity of nurses’ grades59．The Nursing Strategy will be adopted in order to__________ ．[A]provide more consultation to practitioners[B]encourage experienced nurses to work part time[C]enable the most experienced nurses to be paid more[D]promote the most experienced nurses to management60．The Royal College of Nursing __________．[A]proposed similar top salary for nurses[B]raised the management issue to ministers[C]suggested a four-grade system for nurses[D]put forward the Nursing Strategy to ministersPart BDirections：Read the texts taken from five people's comments on an article on the issue of global poverty．For questions61 to 65，match the name of each person(61to 65)to one of the statements(A to G)given below Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET 1． Ankita Agarwal：Your article made me ashamed．I've always thought of myself as not the typical self-absorbed teenager，but I guess l was wrong．While I sit in my large，warm and cozy house．Wishing for the shoes and clothes I see in teen magazines，there are people in the world wishing for something as simple as clean water. Thank you for reminding me about people who would be more than happy with what I have．Janet Tejada：What about the relationship between population，consumption and resources? After all, poverty most simply defined，is not having enough resources．The steady growth of the global population, overconsumption of resources by developed nations such as the U．S．，and increasing levelsof C0nsumption among the growing middle class in many developing nations ensure that there is ever less of the planet’salready dwindling resources to go around．Tadaship Kawabe：Extreme poverty is so tragic．Sudden natural disasters like an earthquake mobilize a large number of people and money for a short period of time，while the slow but massive wave of poverty and death in Africa doesn't attract the world’s attention in the same way. When we try to help those affected by disasters and extreme poverty，however，we shouldn’t focus on the overwhelming number of the dead but simply try to do something good for others·Jane Thomas：The poor should be trained to organize，set priorities and develop skills and resources to put their own community plans into action．What your article proposes is the conventional top-down way for doing things：outsiders determine the priorities and solutions，then throw money at them.To actually help，we must first develop our own skills and understanding．We need to find out what the poor want and what the root causes of the problems are．We have to listen to poor people．Sanjay Kathe：Concerned and sensible people’s endeavors to reduce poverty in underdeveloped countries are deserving of high praise．It is sad，however，that only a small part of the funds raised for the poor actually l each them．The generous people who donate money to reduce poverty would be more successful if they spent time in the poor nations to check first—hand the use of their funds.Now match the name of each person (61 to65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements．61.

1、其实查看灭火器是否失效的方法很简单，就是查看灭火器的压力表（有少数的灭火器没有压力表，这里不做讨论）。 我们可以看到灭火器压力表有红绿黄三段。 如果指针指到红色区域，表示灭火器内压力小，不能喷出。 注意了，这表明该灭火器已经失效了，请立即充装或更换！2、如果指针指到绿色区域，表示灭火器内压力正常，可以正常使用。 我们观察可以发现绿色区域是红绿黄三段区域中范围最窄的一段。3、如果指针指到黄色区域，表示灭火器内压力过大，可以使用，但却有爆炸的危险。 这里我提醒一下大家，不要以为灭火器很安全，其实只要是那种密闭的容器，如果里面气压过大，都会有爆炸的危险，像各类气瓶，如氧气瓶、丙烷瓶、乙炔瓶等，坚决不能在阳光下暴晒，暴晒会导致气瓶内压力过大而爆炸。 所以灭火器要注意两点： 、灭火器不要在烈日下暴晒（尤其是建筑工地的灭火器）。

干粉灭火器怎么使用干粉灭火器利用二氧化碳气体或氮气气体作动力，将筒内的干粉喷出，可扑灭一般火灾，还可扑灭油，气等燃烧引起的失火。下面介绍一下干粉灭火器的使用方法。 1、检查干粉灭火器是否在正常的工作压力范围。2、灭火器压力表分为三个颜色区域，黄色表示压力充足，绿色表示压力正常，红色表示欠压。3、一般灭火器指针要在绿色区域。4、将灭火器上下颠倒几次，使里面的干粉松动，拔掉保险销。5、一只手握住压把，另一只手抓好喷管。将灭火器竖 建筑桩基检测实战桩基检测承载力标准值与特征值区别，合格数值多大 桩基检测仪枕块、槽钢、压力表，重型吊车 1、清理基槽，平整桩基周围，桩基套护筒。吊车吊装枕块，千斤顶安装。 2、桩基检测仪安装，这时给千斤顶加压，设置控制荷载。 例：控制荷载为9800KN.（单桩承载力特征值） 3、定时观察实际荷载数值（单桩承载力标椎值）；单桩承载力标准值不小于2倍单桩承载力特征值。例：实际荷载为9823KN合格 电冰箱打压检漏的技巧打压检漏是电冰箱维修中必不可少的关键一个步骤，也是不易操作的一个步骤， 要想彻底的将冰箱的漏点区分是哪个部位内漏，就要进行分体打压，具体技巧如下： 真空泵一台氮气瓶一只压力表三块手提焊炬 1、将压缩机上面的高低压管用割刀从里压缩机2-3cm处割开，将过滤器与毛细管接头处离过滤器2-5cm处用钳子剪断，2、用焊炬将毛细管和过滤器的断口处焊死，3、用焊炬将从压缩机上断开的高低压管子的端口处各焊接上一块压力表，4、把电冰箱冷冻室的盘管从冰箱里面拆开网外拉出来一些， 怎样添加汽车空调制冷剂谁都会试过汽车空调制冷剂没有的情况，除非你经常对空调系统进行保养，否则有一天你会发现汽车空调系统的制冷效果下降，而汽车空调没有任何问题，那么这时要考虑一下加注制冷剂的事了。接下来就让我们详细了解汽车空调加注制冷剂的步骤和方法。 高压端加注制冷剂方法步骤：1、当系统抽真空后，关闭歧管压力表上的高、低压手动阀。2、将中间软管的一端与制冷剂罐注入阀的接头连接。打开制冷剂罐开启阀，再拧开歧管压力表软管一端的螺母，让气体溢出几分钟，然后拧紧螺母。 3、拧开高压侧手动阀至全开位置，将制冷剂罐倒立。 4、从高压侧注入规定量的液态制冷剂。关闭制冷剂罐注入阀及歧管压力表上的高压手动阀，然后将仪表卸下。从高压侧向系统加注制冷剂时，发动机处于不启动状态（压缩机停转），不要拧开歧管压力表上的低压手动阀，以防产生液压冲击。 如何查看灭火器是否失效灭火器是常见的防火设施之一，许多人可能知道灭火器的使用方法，但却不知道怎样查看灭火器是否已失效。 这其实一个很严重的问题，大家不要以为一些饭店宾馆摆了灭火器就没有消防隐患了。事实上，我见到过很多小型的饭店宾馆灭火器大多都是失效的，但顾客却完全看不懂这些。 大家可以想象一下，一旦发生火灾，我们拎着灭火器去救火，却发现灭火器失效了，那是一件多么悲催的事！ 所以，希望大家看完我的这篇经验之后能擦亮眼睛观察一下你周围摆放的灭火器，看它是否失效，如果失效了，请提醒店主赶紧充装或更换！ 灭火器、灭火器压力表

Matthew：
And in my time I've bathed a few babies, changed nappies and washed them.
Sarah：
Woman：Grace
Robert：
With the rapid development, more and more problems are coming out.
Just think of the population explosion.
If that continues at the present rate, we all will be starving in future.
they can go to university;
they can compete with men in the professions on equal terms.
Sarah：
I agree, but not many.
Most of them are still housewives.
Robert：
Yes, because industry is using up the world's natural resources faster and faster, especially energy.
Grace：
Do you know millions of tons of oil are spilt into the sea every year?
Can you imagine the monotony, the boredom and the frustration?
Matthew：
I can imagine it easily enough.
But don't forget that a lot of men have equally boring jobs and less freedom to do them in their own way.

====================
unit16-1.----------
Title：1.Two students are discussing some social problems.
Question：What do some countries do to deal with population explosion?
Victor：
Huh, huh, quite right.
Everybody seems to believe that you'd just be a younger version of who you are today and could use all your experience and shape your life because you now know better.
Tang：
I first learnt about the clone from the cloning of Dolly, a sheep created using genetic material from an adult cell.
Victor：
It's said that the difference between that and cloning a human being was not that great.
Question：Is there any improvement on population increase according to Robert's view?
Question：What other social problems do they talk about?
Man：Robert
True.
In fact, technology is neither good nor evil.
It's just the use of it.
unit16-3.----------
Title：3.Sarah and Matthew are talking about problems related to the equality of women and men.
Matthew：
You mean they've been conditioned to accept an inferior position?
Sarah：
Exactly, they've been brainwashed.
It's the job of the Women's Lib Movement to open their eyes to the way they have been fooled and dominated and exploited all these years.
Victor：
You have read a lot.
The scientist also said that if the United States does outlaw human cloning, he would set up his operation elsewhere.
I believe the housework and the work of bringing up the children should be shared equally.
Matthew：
Well, I do that at my house;
and I fill up the stove and mow the lawn and dig the garden.
Question：What did people first clone?
Question：Why do some people want to clone human beings?
Man：Tang
Man：Victor
Tang：
I read from the paper that an American physicist said he was ready to clone a human being and hoped to produce the first human duplicate within the next 18 months.
Grace：
Oh, don't say that.
Most countries are developing family planning programs now.
At least there is a solution to the population explosion.
Robert：
Question：Where was this H7 virus discovered?
Question：What did other countries react to the bird flu in America?
It's all very well to say that population growth will be controlled, but I don't think the figures show any real improvement yet, and all the people alive now obviously want to have children.
Well, all I can say is you must be pretty unusual.
My husband's never touched a nappy in his life.
unit16-4.----------
Title：4.The following monologue is about the bird flu.
Tang：
Many experts said that it was not a fear of science but of how to control the technology.
Victor：
Yes, I agree.
Tang：
And it seems to me that it touches a central theme-search for immortality.
Most housewives, in my experience, are content to be housewives.
Take my wife Lisa for example, she's not bored or frustrated;
she finds her life quite satisfying;
But the reality is that you'd go through another life and it wouldn't be you.
Tang：
So it's hard to see the future of the human cloning.
Victor：
Man：Matthew
Woman：Sarah
Matthew：
It strikes me that here in Britain women have already got as much freedom as they could possibly want.
