Unit 4IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken from the text.Unit 11.…there has been this long lull with nothing particular up!…Britain has been in too long a period of stillness without taking any particular action against the enemy!2.…we must “… meet with Triumph and Disaster. And treat those two impostorsjust the same.”…we are sure to experience both Triumph and Disaster, and we must treat them as the same thing different appearances because they are essentially interchangeable.3.…never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense.…never give in unless we are convinced that it is honourable and sensible for us to do so.4.Britain, other nations thought, had drawn a sponge across her slate.Other nations thought that Britain was completely conquered.5.…we have only to persevere to conquer.…we will win as long as we hold on to the end.Unit 21.The phrase “personal space” has a quaint, seventies ring to it.The phrase “personal space” has an odd touch that was characteristic of the 1970s.2.T-shirt weather can make proximity more alluring (or much, or less).In hot summer days, people can be drawn to each other, especially to the opposite sex (or feel disgusted with the closeness of others.)3.The logistics of it vary according to geography.People in different regions are given different sizes of personal space. 4.…individuals routinely commandeer booths and sets of facing seats meant forfoursomes.…it is quite common that one person occupies a booth and a set of facing seats designed for four people.5.Even the focus of science these days is micro, not macro.Even science focuses on the intra-personal, inner world rather than theinterpersonal, outer society these days.6.In the same way that the breeze from a butterfly’s wings in Japan may eventuallyproduce a tidal in California, I have decided to expand the contracting boundaries of personal space.Because the initial invasion of personal space can cause a chain of reactions,which may bring about a catastrophic consequence, as the breeze from abutterfly’s wings in Japan, if it initiates a chain of waves, may eventually producea tidal wave in California, I have decided to enlarge the shrinking personal space.Unit 31.Given the relatively few restrictions governing access and usage, it is thecommunications modal equivalent of international waters.As there are relatively few restrictions for reaching and using the Internet,communications via the Internet are comparable to traveling through theinternational waterways.2.But much less widely reported has been the notion that the Internet may beresponsible for furthering the fragmentation of society by alienating its individual users.A lot of people talk about the “new information age”, but not so many people areacquainted with the idea that the Internet separates people from each other and fragments society further as a result.3.It seems to me that we are a society that values immediate gratification above allelse, and what better place to achieve it than in cyberspace, where the cyber-world is your cyber-oyster.I think that in our society the top priority is given to the satisfaction of one’simmediate needs. The Internet is the best tool for this purpose, for on the Internet one can do whatever he likes to.Unit 41.It was therefore left to Yamahata to record, methodically – and, as it happens, witha great and simple artistry – the effects ...The responsibility was therefore placed on Yamahata’s shoulders to record the effects systematically and incidentally with a great and simple artistry.2.That absence, even more than wreckage, contains the heart of the matter.That vanished city rather than its remains represents the true measure of the event.3.In the photographs, Nagasaki comes into its own.In the photographs, Nagasaki regains its own status.4.… the human imagination had stumbled to exhaustion in the wreckage of the firstruined city without reaching even the outskirts of the second.… the human imagination had been exhausted and stopped at the wreckage of the first ruined city and failed to reach even the outskirts of Nagasaki.5.… we seem to need, in addition, some other picture to counterpoise against ruinedNagasaki ...… apart from the pictures of Nagasaki we seen to need some other picture toinspire in us a hope of life to counterbalance the sense of doom suggested by the ruined Nagasaki…Unit 51.Slowly, it planned across the tapestry of friendship…Slowly, the movie gave a panoramic picture of friendship…2.This wasn’t just another binge of trendiness, but a kind of cinema verite.This was not simply a shift from one fashion to another, but a truthful description of friendship.3.Well, that duality must have been mortally wounded in some shoot- out at theYou’re OK, I’m OK Corral.The two sides must have been mortally wounded in the OK Corral gunfight.4.Buddies hang tough together; friends hang onto each other.Buddies hold on together in face of adversity; friends cling tightly to each other for emotional support.Unit 61.July 4 is one of the times when the American in me feels a twinge of unease aboutthe great lacunae in our children’s understanding of who they are and is prompted to try to fill the gaps.July 4 is one of the times I, as a native American, feel instinctively uneasy about the great gaps in our children’s understanding of their American identity, and thusI am motivated to do something to fill the gaps.2.And our physical separation from our native land is not much of an issue.And living away from our native country does not matter much (in our children’s acquisition of our native language).3.In my day little French kids looked like nothing other than little French kids…When I lived in France as an expatriated child, the French kids were dressed in the unique French style, thus looking quite different from their counterparts in other countries.4.That experience no longer seems possible in Western countries – a saddevelopment, in my view.Full immersion in a truly foreign world no longer seems possible in Westerncountries, and I think this is a deplorable impact of globalization upon the growth of children in a foreign country.Unit 71.He was almost innocent of any sense of responsibility.→He almost had no sense of responsibility.2.He wrote begging letters by the score,sometimes groveling without shame,at other s loftily offering his intended benefactor the privilege of contributing to his support,a nd being mortally offended of the recipient declined the honor.→He wrote a large number of letters to his patron without shame,begging for money. But in a manner that it seemed a great honor for the patron to be offered the chance s upport him.That’s why he would be greatly offended if the patron refused to tale the honor.3.He would pull endless wires in order to meet some man who admired his work and was able and anxious to be of use to him.→he would use the influences from as many people as possible to meet his admirer w ho was readily useful to him.4.Is it any wonder he had no time to be a man?→Wagner was such a miraculous monster,is it any wonder that he didn’t behave like a normal human being in this world?Unit 81.“Yes,down,”he says.→“Yes,I’m going down,”he says.(Literally,he means that he is going down with the bed,but metaphorically he means that his physical condition is going from bad to wo rse.2.It is a sound you have never heard.It is something new under the sun.It could cure cancer.→And then he laughs.The wild,relaxed laughter is a totally new sound in the world t hat you have never heard.The laughter could cure cancer.3.She looks over at me shaking her head and making her mouth go.→The aide looks over at me,shaking her head to express her frustration and pursing h er lips to signal her

was still living in a world vibrant with all of the beautiful treasures he has stored →he was still living in a world that was exciting and lively because of all the beautif ul poems he had

the country,for they will not live without is pamperings.→City dwellers create all kinds of fashion in the country,for they will not live witho ut these fashionable things.3.These windows are a scandal because they endanger the lives of office workers in c ase of fire.→These windows are disgraceful because they put the lives of office workers in dan ger if a fire should occur.4.No true sense of the rhythms of the seasons is to be had from a lawn in the backyard and a few spindly trees struggling to survive.→a lawn in the backyard and a few spindle-shaped trees struggling for life are not en ough to give the dweller any true sense of the season changes.Unit 111 .Nothing remains of it but memories and a fringe of dwelling houses on its outskirts.→Except for some dwelling houses on its suburbs,San Francisco has almost complet ely disappeared from the world and only remains in people’s memories.2.There was no withstanding the onrush of the flames.→Nothing could stop the advancement of the flames.3.An enumeration of the deeds of heroism would stock a library and bankrupt the Car negie medal fund.→The courageous and brave deeds in the firefighting would fill up a library if

members of a family fastened themselves with straps to a carriage or delivery wagon that was heavily loaded with their possessions.5.And against this wall of flames,silhouetted sharply,were two United States cavalry men sitting their horse,calmly watching.→Two United States soldiers sat astride on their horse and calmly watched the conflagration,their shapes contrasting sharply with the wall.Unit121.It is an insidious practice,all the uglier for its blatancy.→The media’s malicious use of the small segment of black America to represent the whole of it is harmful and offensive.2.The free press,indeed,as the main interpreter of American culture and American e xperience,holds the mirror on American reality-so much so that what the media sa y is,even if it’s not that way at all.→The media are supposed to present American culture and American experience trut hfully by reflecting American reality,and people usually accept news reports as truth without any doubt.Unfortunately,in many cases what they present is anything but the truth.The distorted,inaccurate coverage of news is worse than covering nothing at all about blacks.4.Nor is it a matter of closing one’s eyes to the very real problems of the urban under class-which undeniably is disproportionately black.→We should never ignore the existence of real problems of the urban underclass-w hich undeniably is disproportionately black.5.For the millions of black people like myself-ordinary,hard-working,law-abiding ,tax-paying Americans-the media’s blindness to the fact that we even exist,let alo ne to our contributions to American society,is a bitter cup to drink.→Most black people work hard,obey the law and pay all kinds of taxes.We have ma de our contributions to American society,as all the other Americans have.Unit 131.Their cynical attitude to marriage may be gathered from the enthusiastic reception they gave to Punch’s advice to those about to marry -“Don’t.”→From the way they enthusiastically received the “Don’t advice given in themagazine Punch, we can tell that they adopted a skeptical attitude to marriage.2.The humour was crude; but it went home to the honest Victorian heart.→Although the humor might sound offensively rude, it was readily accepted by people in the Victorian era.3. “The marriage state, with and without the affection suitable to it, is the completest image of Heaven and Hell we are capable of receiving in this life.”→The marriage state, whether there is love involved or not, is a combination of the happiness and misery we may encounter in life.Unit 141.Everywhere, the media flow defies national boundaries. (Paragraph 1)→Throughout the world, the modern electronic media flow across national boundaries. / Throughout the world, the media flow is not barred by national boundaries.2.Just as their “cultures”are neither hard-wired nor uniform, so there is no simple way in which they are “Americanized”,though there are American tags on their experience -low-cost links to status and fun.→For young people, cultures are not innate or unvarying. They don’t simply become Americanized although they may have contact with American fun culture at little cost.3. The empire strikes from inside the spectator as well as from outside.→American pop culture not only impacts on the more material side of young people’s lives but also touches their hearts with great force.。

They are not only dwellers in nature, but also transformers of it. With the development of society and its economy, people tend to become less dependent on nature directly, but indirectly their dependence grows.Human beings are connected with nature by “blood” ties. No one can live outside nature. However, the previous dynamic balance between man and nature has shown signs of breaking down. Problems such as the population explosion, ecological imbalance and the shortage of natural resources have become major factors keeping human society from being further developed.Professor Spirkin holds that the only choice for human beings is the wise organization of production and care for Mother Nature.Theme-Related Writing▆ Write an essay of no less than 150 words on the topic “My Understanding of Environmental Protection”. Your writing should cover the following points:1) the relationship between man and the environment2) the urgency of environmental protection3) ways to protect the environment▆Sample essayMy Understanding of Environmental ProtectionMan and the environment are closely related. Man relies on the environment for water, food and shelter. A harmonious relationship between man and the environment is essential for human survival on the earth.However, man and the environment have never been on such bad terms as they are now. As society develops, man’s transformation of nature has severely polluted his living environment. Deforestation leads to changes in rainfall patterns, causing devastating floods, droughts and sandstorms. The discharge of chemical pollutants endangers our health and the lives of other beings. And mass production has resulted in the shortage of irreplaceable natural resources such as coal and oil. If we take no immediate and effective steps to protect our environment, human beings may be the next species to become extinct.We should do our best to protect our environment by planting more trees, taking care of wildlife, reducing industrial wastes, using renewable energy, and imposing heavy fines on environmentally-unfriendly activities, so as to preserve the environment for future generations.(167 words)Unit TwoMan and TechnologyEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▆ Working with Words and Expressions3.In the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

With the development of science and technology, people’s standard of living is getting higher and higher. People’s life expectancy has soared, too.However, oddly enough, many people do not feel happier than they used to be. It can be seen that there is no close correlation between people’s income and their happiness. Happiness cannot, after all, be bought with money.Although the majority of people are not very satisfied with their lives, they are happy to be alive, and the more time they live on earth, the better off they feel they’ll be. What is important is that material wealth is far from enough. People need spiritual happiness, too.Theme-Related WritingWrite an essay of no less than 150 words about a technological invention.

It not only enables us to keep in touch with each other almost anytime and anywhere but also helps us solve problems ordo business efficiently. In emergencies, a mobile phone can even be a life-saver. Besides, its multi-functions add ease and color to our lives. With a mobile phone, we can receive mail, read news, listen to music, play games, and take pictures.Yet, the mobile phone has its disadvantages, too. Most of us have experienced the nuisance of unwanted or wrong calls. We are inconvenienced by calls on occasions when we least expect one. Besides, the technology infrastructure to support mobile communication has consumed valuable natural resources and caused significant environmental problems. It is reported that electromagnetic radiation waves from the phone may result in health problems.Despite its negative side, the advantages of the mobile phone outweigh its disadvantages. I believe that with advances in science and technology, improved and safer models of mobile phones will surely serve us still better.(184 words)Unit ThreeFame and SuccessEnhance Your Language Awareness Words in ActionWorking with Words and Expressions1.

In most cases, fame can also help them gain wealth. But, after all, very few people can really become famous while most people, including most artists, are unlikely to become famous.It is true that some failure for some people at certain times in their lives does motivate them to strive even harder so as to achieve final success. For example, Thomas Edison, the famous American inventor, had tried hundreds of materials before he finally found the suitable fuse for the electric bulb. However, unfortunately, for most people failure is the end of their struggle.Therefore, in my opinion, success is one thing and fame is another. As long as you have tried your best, you’re already successful whether you are famous or not.Theme-Related WritingWrite a composition of no less than 150 words on the topic “Fame —Good or Evil?”. Your paper should cover the following points:1) the advantages of being famous2) the disadvantages of being famous3) your attitude towards fameSample essay:Fame — Good or Evil?Fame has always been pursued by many people for the advantages it brings about. Fame can assure one of a high social status, high regard, great admiration, etc.Fame can also bring one wealth as a celebrity has more chances to earn big money. Besides, the applause and flowers from fans may boost one’s self-confidence and increase one’s sense of fulfillment.However, fame can ruin one’s life, too. It deprives one of his privacy. As a public figure, he is often chased by fans and journalists, and his private life never escapes the media’s attention orpublic curiosity. Fame also places one under great pressure. He has to work in line with public expectations and thus becomes the slave of his own success.So fame is a double-edged sword. I don’t seek fame and I don’t envy those who are famous.I highly appreciate what the American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow says about fame: “The talent of success is nothing more than doing well whatever you do without a thought of fame.”Unit FOUREnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▇Working with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

Unit 5Text comprehensionI. Decide which of the following best states the autho r’s purpose of writing.C.II. Judge. according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F. Refer to Paragraphs 1 and2.Though it is true that what interested the woman was the all-sided description of the friendship between the two characters, the plot of the movie was far from exciting; it was in many ways a slight movie..2. T. Refer to Paragraph3.3. F. Refer to Paragraph4. The shift was not simply from men to women. It in depth represented a shift from one type of friendship to another. In other words, female friendship depicted in movies nowadays was distinct in nature from male friendship portrayed in earlier movies.4. T. Refer to Paragraph 8.5. T. Refer to Paragraph 16.6. F. Refer to Paragraph 18. The author only says that in the double standard of friendship the female version was becoming accepted as the general idea for once. III. Answer the following questions.1. She thought it was a trivial movie, particularly with regard to its dull plot. At the same time she found it gentle and affecting on the ground that the movie described in detail the characteristics of the friendship between two women.2. Because in the past men were exclusive images for friendship in movies and they were presented as the only inheritor of a primitive capacity for friendship. Women, on the other hand, were portrayed choosing each other as companions just as they picked berries with little genuine friendship involved. Nowadays, the female friendship was becoming a fashionable theme of movies to take the place of the make friendship.3. The male friendship, i.e. the bonding relationship between buddies, is established on the need for co-operation in the activities that men are engaged in or in the adverse situations they are confronted with. In other words, without the need to do things together, there would probably be no buddies at all. In contrast, the female friendship borders on love, the need for mutual emotional support. Women friendsdesire to be together as a result of spiritual attachment, regardless of whether they are involved in the same act or not.4. Men become buddies only when they have undergone together competitive, adverse or dangerous situations like sports games and wars, but women are not real friends unless they have exchanged three loathsome secrets. This fact shows again that the male friendship is activity-oriented while the female friendship isemotion-rooted.5. It is intended to illustrate that female friends exchange their confidences.6. Because what men described as friendship was nothing of the kind at all to the woman. As she saw it, when two women see each other only once a year, they cannot count as best friends; when two women do not call each other long distance without a real reason, they don’t count as intimates; and when two women don’t have dinner together alone without a company of their spouses, they don’t count as chums. But in such situations, men still describe them as bosom friends.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken form the text.1. Slowly, the movie gave a panoramic picture of friendship…2. This was not simply a shift from one fashion to another, but a truthful description of friendship.3. The two sides must have been mortally wounded in the OK Corral gunfight.4. Buddies hold on together in face of adversity; friends cling tightly to each other for emotional support.Structural analysis of the textWe can summarize the author’s viewpoint with the following sentence: A buddy is a fine life-companion but a friend is that part of the race with which you can be human.The more specific differences between a buddy and a friend are given below:1.Buddies bonded, but friends loved.2.Buddies faced adversity together, but friends faced each other.3.Buddies seemed to “do” things together; friends simply “were” together.

The Han people can be found throughout the country, though mainly on the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the Pearl River valleys, and the Northeast Plain. The national minorities, though fewer in number, are also widely dispersed throughout China, often inhabiting important border regions from northeast China to north, northwest and southwest China. Equality, unity and common prosperity are the fundamental principles of China’s government in handling the relations between different ethnic groups.

The martial arts are either bare-handed or weapon-in-hand practice or performance according to certain sets. Generally speaking, modern martial arts consist of such five categories as boxing, weapon exercises, sparring exercises, actual combat and teamwork. The five categories can be further divided into different schools or styles. The martial arts play positive roles in strengthening the body, developing the potential of the body, tempering people’s will power and even curing difficult and complex cases of illness.

Unit 4 Lierature and ArtsText A 参考译文诗,如同这世界,可以说是有四个时代的,不过程度不同罢了;诗的第一个时代是铁器时代、第二个是黄金时代;第三个是白银时代;第四个是黄铜时代。

在诗的第一个时代,铁器时代,粗野的歌人,用震耳的旋律,歌颂更粗野的魁酋们的丰功伟业,当时,人人都是战士,各式社会的最高实践箴言是:“保持我们所有的东西,夺取我们所能夺取。

”,这箴言尚未以正义的名义和法律的形式装扮起来,而是刀光剑影的一句露骨格言,白刃相向就是meum et meum(而我之间)一切问题的裁判和公断。

在那些日子,只有三种职业兴隆(除了时时都兴隆的祭司职业以外),那就是王者、盗贼、乞丐的职业:乞丐多半是穷途落魄的王者,盗贼则多半是前途似锦的王者。

向一个陌生者询问的第一个问题是:“你是乞丐还是盗贼?”陌生人回答,往往先冒充乞丐,等到方便时机,便证明他堪称为盗贼。

每个人的自然欲望,是把他所能获得的权势和财产,尽量独占为己有,不择手段,强权就是公理;加上一个同样自然的欲望,那就是让尽可能多的人知道,他在这个普遍追求中夺得多少东西。

成功的武士变成魁酋,成功的魁酋转成王者:他接着便需要一个工具来宣扬他的功业的名声和财富的多寡。

这个工具他在歌人身上找到了,歌人事前在他的美力充分感发之下,是随时准备歌颂他的武力的。

这就是诗的起源:诗,正如其他职业那样,是因有这种商品的需求而兴起,按照市场范围的扩大而繁荣的。

所以,诗在起源时是歌功颂德的。

各民族最早的粗野诗歌,好像是一种简要的历史介绍,用臃肿浮夸的调子,颂扬一些杰出人物的功绩和财产。

诗的黄金时代取材于铁器时代。

这个时代开始之时,诗便开始回顾往事,一种类似扩大的国家行政体系的制度已经建立起来,个人的力量和勇敢已经不足以扩张武人勇士的势力,不足以使帝王废立和国家兴亡了,有组织的人群,社会的制度,世袭的继承等等,将予以抑制。

人们也更多生活在真理光辉之中,交换着观察成果,从而看出了鬼神的作用不是那么经常在他们之间发生,从古代诗歌和传说看来好像经常在他们祖先之间发生似的。

V. Keys to the ExercisesFocusing on ReadingTask 1Task 21) First, to understand the effect of GM crops on us and animals; second, to provide investigation intothe influence of GM crops on mammals, especially on their reproductive function.2) Because it is known that raw soybean contains a number of anti-nutrients and female hormone-likesubstances, a positive control group was created to guarantee the validity of the study.3) The major findings are: first, the mortality rate of the pups from the GM soya group was muchhigher and this high rate continued; second, the weights of the surviving rat pups were lower.4) Table 4 shows the weight distribution of the pups which reveals a much lower weight of the pupsfrom the GM soya group.5) Firstly, the transformation and the insertion of the foreign genes into the sexual/stem cells, or/andinto cells of the fetus. Secondly, the accumulation of Roundup residues in GM soya residues couldproduce negative effects of GM.Task 31) j 2) i 3) g 4) b 5) e 6) f7) c 8) s 9) d 10) q 11) w 12) x13) u 14) o 15) t 16) v 17) a 18) r19) h 20) n 21) m 22) p 23) k 24) l Task 4The most formal ones are: novel, stunt, impede, curb, hamper, allocate, dispense, persist, accumulate,presume, postulate, surmise, detrimental, pernicious, jeopardy, menace, perilTask 51) Therefore, we decided to carry out a study to see how the most commonly used GM crop affectedthe birth rate, death rate and weight gain of rat pups whose mothers were fed diets added withRoundup-Ready soya, a kind of GM food.2) This fact showed that the pups from the GM group were the same age as others, but changesappeared with the development of internal organs. A slight bad effect was found in the group withthe traditional soya, but this effect was not very important.3) The more surprising thing was that the pups were smaller, about half the size, so more milk shouldhave been given to the individual pups. They should have a better chance to grow best, unless theamount, and/or the quality of the milk, were not affected by eating the GM soya flour.Task 6Summary: GMO, with foreign genes from other species, displays certain novel characteristics andundergoes criticisms from scientists worldwide.Task 7Four major sources of the hazards of GMO have been discussed by scientists worldwide and thesehazards have been proved in many investigations. This study intends to f ind the effect of the mostcommonly used GM crop on the birth rate, mortality and weight gain of rat pups. Two weeks before their mating, three groups of rats which were sexually mature received respectively standard laboratory feed, feed supplemented with traditional soya and feed supplementedwith GM soya.It has been found that the GM soya group has a much higher rate of pup mortality than the other twogroups, and the pups continue to die over the period of lactation. This group also has lower weights.Task 8(omitted)Task 9(omitted)Task 10(omitted)Research Paper WritingTask 11) The methods section of Text 4 contains two parts: participants and procedure. The participant parttells the reader the participants (Wistar rats) and the number of rats used. The procedure part givesthe reader a summary of each step in the execution of the research.2) The writer divided the rats into three groups: the experimental group, the control group and thepositive control group. The division was intended to see how the GM crops inf luence the birth rate,mortality and weight gain of rat pups.3) Each step was made clear to prove the validity and reliability of the results and conclusion.

Snedecor, in honor of Sir Ronald A. Fisher, an English statistician knownfor his important contributions to statistics, including the analysis of variance. P stands for probability.They should be reported to show whether the difference in the means was statisticallysignificant.Task 9Past tense is used in the results section because the results were collected from the data in theexperiment.Task 10Similarity 1: Both sections use tables to report the data clearly and insert titles on the top of the tables.Similarity 2: Both sections use the past tense to present the data.Similarity 3: Both sections are concise and well-organized.Similarity 4: Paragraphs in both sections begin with an opening sentence telling the reader the aim ofthe experiments.Task 11Title: The number of different types of words recalled in different background music conditionsTask 12Table 1 The effects of time limit and television exposure on reading comprehensionTask 13—From the data it is evident that 36% of ...—The study of ... showed that ...—This fact indicated that ...—A slight negative effect was found in the group which ...—A very high rate of ... was observed in the group of ...—The subjectively estimated prevalence ... was somewhat greater for ... than for ... —Three manipulation-check questions indicated that ...—This survey of ... found that ...—A possible explanation for this finding may be ...—A one-way analysis of variance showed no significant effect of ...—Another one-way ANOVA indicated a significant effect of ...—... with no significant difference between the latter two groups.—No significant effect was found for ...—Unexpectedly, ... had no significant effect on ...—Unexpectedly, ... did not significantly affect ...Task 14shows; were; was; was; stopped; was; suggests; isTask 15(omitted)Academic Survival SkillsTask 1An academic essay is considered formal professional communication, with its primary goals asaccuracy, clarity and completeness. To achieve this style, formal language and clear organization shouldbe adopted. The language used in the article bears the following characteristics:1) Use formal words rather than verb phrases;2) Use long and complex sentences with clauses, nominal phrases;3) Avoid using f irst person or second person pronouns to achieve objectivity;4) Avoid using contractions.Task 21) Failure to protect the environment will cause children to suffer the most.2) These problems need to be addressed.3) However, endangered animals are available in many restaurants.4) Participating in social activities as volunteers can be of great significance to children.Task 3By comparing the above pairs of sentences, we can f ind the functions of nominalization. First, nominalization avoids the use of modal verbs (can, may, etc.), giving more logic to the statement;second, nominalization depersonalizes the statement by avoiding using first and second-personpronouns (I, you, we, etc.), making the writing impersonal and objective and increasing thecredibility; third, nominalization makes the sentence concise and succinct, thus easier for the readerto understand.Task 41) The model provides an explanation for the figure fluctuation in this period.2) But those skills can f ind their application in the exploration of the universe.3) The accidental release of radiation caused damage to a wide area for a long time.4) To obtain most readers’ acceptability and more profitability, the novel follows the most commonlyaccepted notions of morality and justice.5) The richness of the soil in this area contributes to the quick growth of the crops.6) The information explosion and the increasing obsolescence of knowledge are forcing upon highereducation a new set of demands.7) The times give signs on the necessity of modification in the legal system.8) The careful supervision of the crops is necessary for their survival at harvest time.9) Yet all of history has taught us that the denial of these ultimates and the placement of man at thecore of the universe will lead to mass selfishness.10) The knowledge of its sources and symptoms provides rational analysis of many things. Task 51) How we view the world is a reflection of how we view ourselves, and this gives us insight into ourinner thought patterns.2) That does not eliminate the need for us to continue to develop other clean energy sources like solar,wind, biomass, etc.3) Some analysts worried that the tax on the wealthy would discourage jobs creation and hampereconomic growth.4) This meeting highlights the importance of setting targets for progress.5) Too much criticism undermines the children’s co nfidence.Task 61) The opportunities offered by urbanization must be taken full advantage of.2) However, little control is exercised over online articles and speeches.3) The main effects of poverty can be illustrated by looking at those on the lowest incomes in richcities.4) Obviously, people were given jobs according to whether they were male or female.5) Although there are potential benefits of such techniques, the potential environmental and medicalconsequences of GMOs are seriously concerned about.6) A fairly consistent picture of its short-term effects on users in many publications are presented.7) Not much has been learned about the acute physiological effects of cannabis.8) People’s concerns can be understood if we look at the current anti-discrimination laws.9) The distinction between government policy and economic reality is made clear in the essay.10) Social conditions as well as the economic situation should be taken into account. Task 7I would prefer to use the ones in the left column.Task 81) Systems analysts can assist managers in many different ways.2) This program was established to improve access to medical care.3) Medical research expenditure has increased to nearly $350 million.4) Researchers have discovered that this drug has serious side effects.5) Exercise also will not eliminate medical problems related to blood pressure.6) Researchers have been investigating this problem for 15 years now.7) This issue was raised during the coroner’s inquest.8) He observed that the increase in life expectancy has led to some economic problems.9) Children under the age of 15 constitute nearly half of the country’s population.10) The study will conduct a series of experiments to test our hypothesis.Task 91) The study lacks solid evidence and therefore its conclusions are doubtful.2) The scientists are pretty fatigued after their lengthy experiment.3) The book attempts to explain the fundamental character of social life.4) The study confirms the fact that there is no research in this field.5) We noted a potential problem with the experimental design.6) The issue always generates a great deal of debate among academics.7) The group’s principal concern is to protect human rights.8) The research underlines the importance of an international trade agreement.9) There was an apparent discrepancy between the two sets of results.10) The primary cause of the failure was a sudden temperature change.VI.

Questions(1) Because like a dog chasing its own tail, when the artist captures the fame, he does not know what else to do but to continue chasing it.(2) Their freedom to express themselves with other styles or forms.(3) It means that while men gradually become old, they never learn how to be good.Part TwoⅠ. WritingMy View on Remedial ExaminationsRemedial examinations have been part of university education for many years. After careful observation, we can find that it is more complicated than what we have thought.On the whole, I should say remedial examinations are necessary for our educational system. On the one hand, if none of them fail the examination, how can we guarantee the quality of education On the other hand, by preparing for and taking part in remedial examinations, students can make up for the lost time. If they can learn from this lesson, it will certainly do good to their future life.To make remedial examinations do the job, however, we have to make sure of several points below. For one thing, we should make all the examinations as fair as possible. Some students cheat in the examinations to get high scores, and others beg the teacher for a satisfactory grade. All of these people should be severely punished. For another, we should not decide the number of students failing the test before the examination. Teachers should bear a standard in mind, which is comparable across the years.The remedial examination is an important part of college education. Only by planning it wisely and conducting it reasonably can we make best use of it.Ⅱ.

WritingHow to Eliminate Cheating on CampusNowadays, instead of listening attentively in class and working hardafter class, a number of students adopt all kinds of dishonest methodsto get high scores in examinations. It has become such a serious problem that it has aroused the concern from the whole society.To put an end to such a serious problem, in my mind, it calls for the efforts from all sides. First of all, the university authority should make it clear that any cheating behavior in the examinations, from whispering and copying, receiving answers via mobile phones to asking ringers for help, will be severely punished with no exception. Moreover, teachers of all subjects should go all the way to restore honesty by setting an example for the youth through speaking sincerely and behaving truthfully. Last but not least, young students, the future of our nation, should view integrity as the prerequisite to an upright and responsiblecitizen so as to learn to despise and fight against dishonest behaviors throughout the life.How can anybody expect to lead a meaningful life if he is not far from any kind of cheating behaviors Only when all of us join in the efforts of eliminating cheating at all levels can we expect to have a cleaner society and a more beautiful future.Ⅱ.

WritingWelfare in Modern SocietySocial welfare is an essential element of an advanced society. Good systems are always abused, but that does not mean they are faulty. In my opinion, the two main reasons why welfare payments are necessary are as follows:First of all, critics forget that there are many forms of welfare besides payments to the unemployed. Their negative opinions harm those who are not capable of earning a wage, such as single parent mothers, the disabled, and the sick.The second reason is that crime increases when people have no means of support. The desperately poor inevitably turn to crime, which is not only dangerous but also costly.Certain members of society believe that people should look after themselves. They point out that welfare increases dependency on others and destroys dignity. This may be true, but in the case of the unemployed, the relief payments are usually temporary. It is surely the fault of the government if there are long term unemployed.Without welfare payments the poor are destined to become poorer. The first duty of a government is to provide a financial safety net for all disadvantaged persons, and that includes those without work.Ⅱ.

WritingPeople s Interpretations of Hi techHi tech in its largest sense refers to a set of investment intensive technologies that lead in the modern science and technology as guidesfor tapping productivity, promoting social civilization and modernizing national defense.It features improvement, integration, and creativity in technology and has IT, new materials and new energies as its major pillars. When applied to different walks of life, however, it takes on different shades of meaning. Hi tech in the world of enterprisers is often interpreted as an ideal way to open up new businesses and bring in huge profits. Hi tech in the context of IT is a general term for such landmarks as network, fiber optics, digitization and information superhighway. To politicians, hi tech is symbolic of the winning edge a country needs to compete for its rise in the world. With scientists,hi tech is the representative of sophistication, infiltration, independence, and diffusion. For the military circles, hi tech means a key factor separating the winners from the losers in the battlefield.As far as college students like us are concerned, hi tech always signifies a summit that challenges our endurance as well as our knowledge learned in class. Anyone who tries to attain it with one leap or fails to endure the pains during the long course of striving towardit will stand little chance to experience the thrill derived from conquering it. And moreover, hi tech is something relative and changeable, because today s hi tech results from yesterday s technology and will grow out of date as compared to tomorrow s.In this light, the ideal way of keeping pace with hi tech is to build up a sound foundation in basic knowledge.Ⅱ.

WritingCredit CardsPersonal credit cards are becoming more common in China. Banks and other financial institutions are encouraging their customers to change the way they buy things. Credit cards, otherwise known as “plastic money”, are being offered on very good terms to encourage the change. Consumers will be able to “buy now, pay later”, and many see this as an adva ntage. But people need to be careful. There are dangers associated with credit cards. Some people find it very easy to exceed their budget. They are tempted to purchase goods that they do not really need, and can become quickly overburdened by debt. The credit cards often charge a high rate of interest, which exacerbates the problems for these people.However, used wisely credit cards can improve the quality of people s lives. They can give people access to money to meet sudden unplannedexpenses. Properly handled, they can let people control their expenditure and the monthly statements provide a record of where their money has gone.Ⅱ.

WritingOn Marriage of Chinese On Campus StudentsThere is a new dissension putting forward these days: Should Chineseon campus students be approved to get married before they completethe ir courses Some people prefer “yes” while some others prefer “no”. Certainly a large number of people just cannot decide on which side they should stand.In fact, the government allows on campus students to get married before they complete their education. There isn t a regulation proclaimed in writing to forbid marriage of on campus students. But it must affect those triers.In my opinion, it is unnecessary to forbid on campus students to get married before they finish their college study, however, it shouldn tbe advocated or encouraged, because for on campus students, they play the role as learners. Their main task is to learn. If they married,their school work must be affected and they may not graduate favorablyor may not be capable for future works. So, I believe: Almost allon campus students should deal with the question reasonably.Ⅱ.
