UNIT 2-1一场关于男人是否比女人勇敢的激烈的讨论以一个意外的方式。
晚宴我最初听到这个故事是在印度，那儿的人们今天讲起它来仍好像实有其事似的——尽管任何一位博物学家都知道这不可能是真的。
后来有人告诉我，在第一次世界大战之后不久就出现在一本杂志上。
但登在杂志上的那篇故事, 以及写那篇故事的人，我却一直未能找到。
故事发生在印度。
某殖民官员和他的夫人举行盛行的晚宴。
跟他们一起就座的客人有——军官和他人的夫人，另外还有一位来访的美国博物学家——筵席设在他们家宽敞的餐室里，室内大理石地板上没有铺地毯；屋顶明椽裸露；宽大的玻璃门外便是阳台。
席间，一位年轻的女士同一位少校展开了热烈的讨论。
年轻的女士认为，妇女已经有所进步，不再像过去那样一见到老鼠就吓得跳到椅子上；少校则不以为然。
“女人一遇到危急情况，”少校说，反应便是尖叫。
而男人虽然也可能想叫，但比起女人来，自制力却略胜一筹。
这多出来的一点自制力正是真正起作用的东西。
”那个美国人没有参加这场争论，他只是注视着在座的其他客人。
在他这样观察时，他发现女主人的脸上显出一种奇异的表情。
她两眼盯着正前方，脸部肌肉在微微抽搐。
她向站在座椅后面的印度男仆做了个手势，对他耳语了几句。
男仆两眼睁得大大的，迅速地离开了餐室。
在座的客人中，除了那位美国人以外论证也没有注意到这一幕，也没有看到那个男仆把一碗牛奶放在紧靠门边的阳台上。
那个美国人突然醒悟过来。
在印度，碗中的牛奶只有一个意思——引蛇的诱饵。
他意识到餐室里一定有条眼镜蛇。
他意识到餐室里一定有条眼镜蛇。
他抬头看了看屋顶上的椽子——那是最可能有蛇藏身的地方——但那上面空荡荡的。
室内的三个角落里也是空的，而在第四个角落里，仆人们正在等着下一道菜。
这样，剩下的就只有一个地方了餐桌下面。
他首先想到的是往后一跳，并向其他人发警告。
但他知道这样会引起骚乱，致使眼镜索受惊咬人。
于是他很快讲了一通话，其语气非常威严，竟使所有的人安静了下来。

现代大学英语精读2第三版unit2读后感
现代大学英语精读2第三版unit2读后感After reading Unit 2 of Modern College English Reading 2 (Third Edition), I have gained valuable insights and a deeper understanding of the topic of technology and its impact on our lives. In this unit, the readings and exercises have prompted me to think critically about the role of technology in our society, and how it has both positive and negative effects on our daily lives.One of the key readings in this unit was the article on the Internet and social interaction. It highlighted how the Internet has revolutionized the way we communicate with each other, but also raised important questions about the impact of social media on our relationships and mental health. I found this discussion to be particularly thought-provoking, as it made me reflect on my own usage of social media and how it has affected my interactions with others.Another important theme in this unit was the impact of technology on the environment. The reading on e-waste and sustainability shed light on the environmental consequences of our obsession with the latest gadgets and devices. It made me realize the importance of being conscious consumers and making more sustainable choices in order to protect the planet for future generations.Overall, this unit has been a valuable learning experience for me. It has broadened my perspective on the role of technology in our lives and inspired me to be more mindful of the ways in which I use and engage with technology. I look forward to applying the insights and knowledge gained from this unit in my daily life, and continuing to educate myself on this important topic.。

大学英语精读第三版第二册英语课文UNIT2essons from jeffersonJefferson died long ago, but may of his ideas still of great interest to us.Lessons from JeffersonThomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States, may be less famous than George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, but most people remember at last one fact about him: he wrote the Declaration of Independence.Although Jefferson lived more than 200 years ago, there is much that we learn from him today. Many of his ideas are especially interesting to modern youth. Here are some of the things he said and wrote:Go and see. Jefferson believed that a free man obtains knowledge from many sources besides books and that personal investigation is important. When still a young man, he was appointed to a committee to find out whether the South Branch of the James River was deep enough to be used by large boats. While the other members of the committee sat in the state capitol and studied papers on the subject, Jefferson got into a canoe and made on-the-spot-observations.You can learn from everyone. By birth and by education Jefferson belonged to the highest social class. Yet, in a day when few noble persons ever spoke to those of humble origins except to give an order, Jefferson went out of his way to talk with gardeners, servants, and waiters. Jefferson once said to the French nobleman, Lafayette, "You must go into the people's homes as I have done, look into their cooking pots and eat their bread. If you will only do this, you may find out why people are dissatisfied and understand the revolution that is threatening France."Judge for yourself. Jefferson refused to accept other people's opinions without careful thought. "Neither believe nor reject anything," he wrote to his nephew, "because any other person has rejected or believed it. Heaved has given you a mind for judging truth and error. Use it."Jefferson felt that the people "may safely be trusted to hear everything true and false, and to form a correct judgment. Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter."Do what you believe is right. In a free country there will always be conflicting ideas, and this is a source of strength. It is conflict and not unquestioning agreement that keeps freedom alive. Though Jefferson was for many years the object of strong criticism, he never answered his critics. He expressed his philosophy in letters to a friend, "There are two sides to every question. If you take one side with decision and on it with effect, those who take the other side will of course resent your actions."Trust the future; trust the young. Jefferson felt that the present should never be chained to customs which have lost their usefulness. "No society," he said, "can make a perpetual constitution, or even a perpetual law. The earth belongs to the living generation." He did not fear new ideas, nor did he fear the future. "How much pain," he remarked, "has been caused by evils which have never happened! I expect the best, not the worst. I steer my ship with hope, leaving fear behind."Jefferson's courage and idealism were based on knowledge. He probably knew more than any other man of his age. He was an expert in agriculture, archeology, and medicine. He practicedcrop rotation and soil conservation a century before these became standard practice, and he invented a plow superior to any other in existence. He influenced architecture throughout America, and he was constantly producing devices for making the tasks of ordinary life easier to perform.Of all Jefferson's many talents, one is central. He was above all a good and tireless writer. His complete works, now being published for the first time, will fill more than fifty volumes. His talent as an author was soon discovered, and when the time came to write the Declaration of Independence at Philadelphia in 1776, the task of writing it was his. Millions have thrilled to his words: "We hold these truths to beself-evident, that all men are created equal…When Jefferson died on July 4, 1826, the 50th anniversary of American independence, he left his countrymen a rich legacy of ideas and examples. American education owes a great debt to Thomas Jefferson, Who believed that only a nation of educated people could remain free.杰斐逊很久以前就死了，但是我们仍然对他的一些思想很感兴趣,杰斐逊的箴言, 布鲁斯.布利文、托马斯.杰斐逊美国第三任总统，也许不像乔治.华盛顿和亚伯拉罕.林肯那样著名，但大多数人至少记得有关他的一件事实：《独立宣言》是他起草的。

现代大学英语精读2第三版unit2读后感
Unit 2 of Modern College English Intensive Reading II, Third Edition: Reflections andInsightsAs I delved into Unit 2 of Modern College English Intensive Reading II, Third Edition, I was immediately captivated by the diverse range of themes and ideas explored within the unit. The selection of texts, ranging from informative essays to thought-provoking narratives, provided a rich tapestry of perspectives and opinions, allowing readers to gain insights into various aspects of human life and society.The opening text, "The Richness of a Full Life," was a particularly captivating essay that explored the concept of a fulfilling life. The author emphasized the importance of not just accumulating wealth and material possessions, but also seeking meaningful relationships, personal growth, and a sense of purpose. This resonated deeply with me, as it reminded me that true happiness and fulfillment come from a balanced life that encompasses both material and spiritual aspects.The following narrative, "A Day's Wait," was a powerful story of a young boy's courage and resilience in the face of illness. Through the boy's naivety and misunderstanding of his condition, the story highlighted the importance of maintaining a positive attitude even in the midst of adversity. It was a reminder that, regardless of our age or situation, we all have the capacity to find strength and hope within ourselves.The closing text, "A Good Heart to Lean On," was a heartwarming tale of friendship and support. It told the story of a woman who, despite facing significant physical challenges, found solace and comfort in the kindness and empathy of her friends. This story served as a powerful reminder of the importance of community and the role of empathy in building strong relationships.Overall, Unit 2 of Modern College English Intensive Reading II, Third Edition was a profound and thought-provoking collection of texts. It not only expanded my knowledge and understanding of various topics but also inspired me to reflect on my own values and beliefs. The unit left me feeling both informed and moved, a testamentto the power of literature in sparking meaningful conversation and encouraging introspection.**《现代大学英语精读2》第三版第二单元读后感** 当我深入阅读《现代大学英语精读2》第三版第二单元时，我立即被其中探索的多样化主题和思想所吸引。
