Slavery was strongest in the South, where large plantations grew cotton, tobacco, and other crops. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, a growing demand for cotton led to an increase in the demand for slaves in the region. Slavery was less profitable in the North, however, and much of the opposition to slavery came from the northern states. The tension between the North and the South over the issue of slavery led to the Civil War in 1861.With the victory of the North, slavery was abolished. Discrimination, however, did not end. Black Americans were treated as second-class citizens, especially in the South. Dissatisfaction with unfair treatment eventually led to the civil rights protests of the 1950s and 1960s that brought about government action aimed at reducing discrimination.As a result, African Americans have come a long way in the last fifty years, but they still find themselves at a disadvantage in comparison with Americans of European descent. A much smaller proportion of the black population are able to finish higher education. Incomes for the average white family are a lot higher. True, it is inspiring that Barack Obama has become the first black President of the United States, yet it appears that the civil-rights movement in the U.S. still has a long way to go.(237 words)。

新世纪大学英语综合教程3课后答案Unit2分析解析

新世纪大学英语综合教程3课后答案Unit2分析解析

新世纪⼤学英语综合教程3课后答案Unit2分析解析Electronic Teaching PortfolioBook ThreeUnit Two: LovePart I Get StartedSection A Discussion▇Sit in groups of threes or fours and discuss the following questions.1) Do you think love and marriage are important matters in our life? Why or why not?2) Dating and courtship is a common scene at college now. What do you think of it?3) What do you think are the most important factors that contribute to a stable love relationship? Give your reasons.▇ Answers for reference:1)Yes. It is human nature to feel attraction and affection between different sexes. A life without love is oftenregarded as imperfect. Those who are in love would long to stay together, and families resulting from love usually lay the foundation for a stable society.2)I t’s OK to start dating at college, because college students are already grown-ups in the legal sense. Noone has the right to interfere in such private matters. However, students’ top priority at college is to study and acquire knowledge and skills for their future careers. Dating and courtship will interfere with their studies. Therefore, some students tend to hold themselves back even if there are opportunities to start a romantic relationship.3)Many factors may contribute to a stable love relationship. Wealth, social status, appearances, familybackground, etc. may be considered as the external factors, which may help promote a love relationship.Wisdom, knowledge, character, personalities, etc. are the internal factors. Love based on external factors alone may not last long. Love based on the internal factors will survive whatever challenges or crises it may encounter. When two persons are in love, they should respect each other and be honest and faithful to each other. In essence, trust and understanding are the key factors that contribute to a successful love relationship.Section B Quotes▇Study the following quotes about love. Which quote(s) do you like best? Why?⊙The course of true love never did run smooth.—— William Shakespeare Interpretation:Shakespeare believes that a true relationship is not easy to establish. People have different personalities, concepts of value, preferences of life style, etc. When two persons of the opposite sex develop a love relationship, they have to try their best to understand each other and reconcile with each other.William ShakespeareAbout William Shakespeare:William Shakespeare (1564-616): an English writer of plays and poems, who is generally regarded as the greatest of all English writers. His many famous plays include the tragedies Romeo and Juliet (《罗密欧与朱丽叶》), Hamlet (《哈姆雷特》), Julius Caesar (《裘⼒斯·凯撒》), Macbeth (《麦克⽩》), Othello (《奥瑟罗》), and King Lear (《李尔王》); the comedies A Midsummer Night’s Dream (《仲夏夜之梦》), Twelfth Night (《第⼗⼆夜》), and As You Like It(皆⼤欢喜》).⊙To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.—— Bertrand Russell Interpretation:Here Russell emphasizes the importance of an active attitude towards love. We should not be afraid to fall in love just because it is not easy to find true love or just because of any possible setbacks. A life without love is as dull as a dying man because he lacks the energy and passion to enjoy life.Bertrand RussellAbout Bertrand Russell:Bertrand Russell (1872-970): a British philosopher and mathematician who developed new ideas connecting mathematics and logic. He is also known for being a pacifist (和平主义者). He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950.⊙Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl — no superior alternative has yet been found.—— Sir Winston Churchill Interpretation:The quotation emphasizes that true love is the only basis upon which a happy family is built. Only when the man and the woman love each other dearly and devotedly can they endure trials and tribulations in their common effort to build up a happy family.Sir Winston ChurchillAbout Sir Winston Churchill:Sir Winston Churchill (1874-965): a British statesman, soldier, and author who was Prime Minister during most of World War II and again from 1951 to 1955. He is remembered and admired by most British people as a great leader who made possible Britain’s victory in the war. He is also famous for the many speeches he made during the war. In 1953 Churchill was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his writing and oratory (演讲术).⊙It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving.—— Mother Teresa Interpretation:The quotation tells us the significant role that love plays in everything we do in life. Whatever we do, we should put adequate love into it so that others can feel our love and be affected by our love. What we can offer to others may be insignificant, but as long as there is love in it, the benefit will be significant. Here, love isunderstood in a broad sense.Mother TeresaAbout Mother Teresa:Mother Teresa (1910-997): an Albanian (阿尔巴尼亚) Roman Catholic nun (修⼥) who lived in India, where she worked to help the poor and the sick in the city of Calcutta (加尔各答). She won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1979, and people think of her as a typical example of someone who is kind, unselfish, and morally good. Section C Watching and Discussion▇He's Just Not That Into You is a 2009 romantic comedy film about how nine people in Baltimore deal with their romantic problems. Watch the following video clip extracted from this film and then complete the tasks that follow:1.Pay attention to what the woman says in the video clip and fill in the missing words.I. See, you can’t keep being nice to me and I can’t keep pretending like this is something that it’s not.We’ve been t ogether over seven years. You know me. You know who I am. You either wanna marry me or you don’t.II. …for every woman that has been told by some man that he doesn’t believe in marriage and then six months later, he’smarried to some twenty-four-year-old that he met at the gym.III. It’s coming from the place that I have been hiding from you for about five years. About five years because I haven’t wanted to seem demanding, and I haven’t wanted to seem clingy or psycho orwhatever. So I have never asked you.2.What can you infer from the conversation between the man and the woman in the video clip?▇Answers for reference:(Open.)Script:BETH:Now. I want you to stop doing anything nice.NEIL: This feels like a trick.BETH: No. No. I just, I just need you to stop being nice to me —unless you’re gonna marry me after.(Neil laughs.)BETH: Is that funny?

You know me. You know who I am. You either wanna marry me or you don’t. NEIL: Or there is the possibility that I mean it when I say I don’t believe in marriage.BETH: Bullshit! Bullshit! Come on! Bullshit for every woman that has been told by some man that he doesn’t believe in marriage and then six months later, he’s married to some twenty-four-year-old that he met at the gym. It’s just —it’s Bullshit. (Beth tries to hold back her tears. Neil looks stunned and goes to her.)NEIL: Where is this coming from?BETH: It’s coming f rom the place that I have been hiding from you for about five years. About five years because I haven’t wanted to seem demanding, and I haven’t wanted to seem clingy or psycho orwhatever. So I have never asked you. But I — but I — I have to.

The younger generation tends to be more hasty and selfish in building relationships.Part Four 13-14 The author advises young people to learn the essence of love and find ways to develop relationships into lifelong bonds.Section B In-Depth StudyLove is an overwhelming joy that is beyond description. It is human nature to yearn for and indulge in love, but true love takes a lot of understanding, much sharing and caring, and plenty of affection. What is true love? How deep is your love? The author shares her views with the younger generation on these questions.How Deep Is Your Love?Mansi Bhatia1Love to some is like a cloudTo some as strong as steelFor some a way of livingFor some a way to feelAnd some say love is holding onAnd some say let it goAnd some say love is everythingSome say they don’t know2 At some stage or the other in our lives we experience the gnawing pangs of an emotion which defies definition. It’s a feeling that can only be felt and not described. An overwhelming joy that comes together with its share of sadness. Love.3 Given the busy nature of our lives, it’s to be appreciated that we even find the time to ind ulge in matters of the heart.But at the same time I wonder if we even understand its true depth. I remember having countless crushes while in school. My math teacher, our neighbour’s son, my best friend’s brother and lots of others whom I fancied for the colour of their eyes, the shape of their moustaches or just the way they walked. Harmless puppy loves that are as brief as soap bubbles. I can laugh about all those silly and adventurous thoughts and acts now but at that time nothing could be more serious an affair for me. Then came the stage of real relationships.4 Being in an all girls’ school I hardly had the opportunity to interact with members of the opposite gender. Socials between our school and the boys’ college, therefore, would be awaited anxio usly. Those three hours of unhesitant attention by a group of well-groomed young gentlemen provided us with enough content to talk and feel exhilarated about for the next four weeks.5 And even then there was no real need of having a boyfriend.6 I somehow grew up believing that love would happen when it had to. And sure enough it did. It came at an age when I hada career, a long-term plan and a more or less settled life (and now I am not yet 25!). I was mature enough to enter a relationship which demands a lot of give and not so much of take.7 Love was a magnificent building I built on the foundation of friendship. It took time to blossom. It took a lot of understanding, loads of sharing and caring, and plenty of affection to become what it is today. And it meant a meeting of minds. You might say that I belong to the traditional school of romance. But in my opinion, love needs to be nurtured. And it has to be distinguished from the intense but short-lived love or the pleasures of the flesh.8 Our p arents’ generation was fed lavishly with ideals. It was an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, the calmness, the shy glance—these are all so frequently remindful of a bygone era. An age when the distance between the sexes somehow managed to help preserve the holiness of love and relationships.9 The younger generation, with its openness and fading lines of proximity, has jumped on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities. What we have been exposed to via the media have fast paced our sensibilities so much that taking things slow requires effort on our parts.10 I am amazed when I hear stories of school kids bragging about the number of physical relationships they have had. I am horrified to learn that girls barely eighteen have already been in and out of seven to eight “hook ups”.11 I am sorry to learn about the kind of emotional baggage these kids are carrying in what are purely unemotional relationships. Some might blame the current state of affairs on peer pressure. But has anyone ever stopped to figure out where this peer pressure originates? Do any of us try and understand who is responsible for this shift? Does anyone bother to study the state of mind of the teenagers?12 The mindset of this generation is all too evident in the way it handles its personal life.There are more relationships being distorted under the pressures of lust than ever before. There is more focus on physical beauty than on inner charm. There is more of closeness and less of intimacy. There is more of passion and less of emotion. There is more of acquiring and less of sharing. There is more of opportunism and less of selflessness.In short, there is more of ME and less of US.13 We have hardened ourselves so much in this competitive age that we have forgotten the essence of relationships. There’s much more to being someone’s lover than gifting them red roses and fifty-cent cards. What about gifting our object of affection, our time, our company, our support, our friendship? What about setting priorities in our lives and focusing on each with sincerity? What about trying to be self-sufficient emotionally before letting ourselves loose? What about giving ourselves, and others, time and space to forge relationships? What about working towards meaningful and lasting friendships? What about honouring our commitments? What about channeling our energies and emotions towards building lifelong bonds ratherthan wasting them on seasonal relationships?14 We have but one life and we must experience everything that can make us stronger. True love happens once in a lifetime. And we should not have become so tired by our frivolous acts that when it comes we aren’t able to receive it with open arms.▇课⽂参考译⽂你的爱有多深曼茜·巴蒂亚1 有⼈认为爱如浮云有⼈认为爱坚强如铁有⼈认为爱是⼀种⽣活⽅式有⼈认为爱是⼀种感觉有⼈说爱要执着有⼈说爱不要约束有⼈说爱是⽣命的全部有⼈说不知道爱为何物2 在我们⽣命中的某个阶段,我们会经历某种难以名状的情感所带来的阵阵折磨。

全新版大学英语(第二版)综合教程3课后答案(2)Unit 1 Changes in the Way We Live生活方式的改变课文A在美国,不少人对乡村生活怀有浪漫的情感。

许多居住在城镇的人梦想着自己办个农场,梦想着靠土地为生。

很少有人真去把梦想变为现实。

或许这也没有什么不好,因为,正如吉姆·多尔蒂当初开始其写作和农场经营双重生涯时所体验到的那样,农耕生活远非轻松自在。

但他写道,自己并不后悔,对自己作出的改变生活方式的决定仍热情不减。

多尔蒂先生创建自己的理想生活售姆·多尔蒂有两件事是我一直想做的——写作与务农。

如今我同时做着这两件事。

作为作家,我和E·B·怀特不属同一等级,作为农场主,我和乡邻也不是同一类人,不过我应付得还行。

在城市以及郊区历经多年的怅惘失望之后,我和妻子桑迪终于在这里的乡村寻觅到心灵的满足。

这是一种自力更生的生活。

我们食用的果蔬几乎都是自己种的。

自家饲养的鸡提供鸡蛋,每星期还能剩余几十个出售。

自家养殖的蜜蜂提供蜂蜜,我们还自己动手砍柴,足可供过冬取暖之用。

这也是一种令人满足的生活。

夏日里我们在河上荡舟,在林子里野餐,骑着自行车长时间漫游。

冬日里我们滑雪溜冰。

我们为落日的余辉而激动。

我们爱闻大地回暖的气息,爱听牛群哞叫。

我们守着看鹰儿飞过上空,看玉米田间鹿群嬉跃。

但如此美妙的生活有时会变得相当艰苦。

就在三个月前,气温降到华氏零下30度,我们辛苦劳作了整整两天,用一个雪橇沿着河边拖运木柴。

再过三个月,气温会升到95度,我们就要给玉米松土,在草莓地除草,还要宰杀家禽。

前一阵子我和桑迪不得不翻修后屋顶。

过些时候,四个孩子中的两个小的,16岁的吉米和13岁的埃米莉,会帮着我一起把拖了很久没修的室外厕所修葺一下,那是专为室外干活修建的。

这个月晚些时候,我们要给果树喷洒药水,要油漆谷仓,要给菜园播种,要赶在新的小鸡运到之前清扫鸡舍。

在这些活计之间,我每周要抽空花五、六十个小时,不是打字撰文,就是为作为自由撰稿人投给报刊的文章进行采访。

Then they got married and brought up five children. For all those years, their affection for each other grew stronger in the course of overcoming difficulties and hardships in life. I was fascinated by Aunt Susan’s story, which was totally different from my ideal of love.

新标准大学英语综合教程3课后练习答案_Unit 2

Unit 2Active reading (1)Language points1 ... I can recall the changing colors of those days, clear anddefinite as a pattern seen through a kaleidoscope. (Para 1)A kaleidoscope is a toy that shows changing patterns. It is made of a tube with mirrors and colored pieces of glass inside. The glass pieces move as you turn the kaleidoscope. As a metaphor, kaleidoscope means a view, situation or experience that keeps changing and has many different aspects.2 … and look over the lights of Boston that blazed a nd blinked faroff across the darkening water. (Para 2)To blaze means to burn strongly and brightly. The lights ... thatblazed and blinked means the lights were bright and went on and off continuously, like the blinking of eyes.3 The sunset flaunted its pink flag above the airport, and the soundof waves was lost in the perpetual droning of the planes. (Para 2) To flaunt means to deliberately try to make people notice something, eg your possessions, beauty, abilities etc, because you want them to admire you. The sunset flaunted its pink flag means the pink color of the setting sun was like a flag which the sun was using to try to make everyone notice and admire it. To drone means to make a continuous low sound. Because Logan is an international airport, the noise of the planes continued all the time. So it was perpetual.4 I marveled at the moving beacons on the runway and watched, until it grew completely dark, the flashing red and green lights that rose and setin the sky like shooting stars. (Para 2)A beacon is a bright light that shines in the dark and is used as a signal to warn people of danger or to show them the way to somewhere. Beacons are used in airports to show approaching and departing planes the position of the runways to help them land and take off safely. A shooting star is a meteor, a large piece of rock in space that falls through the earth’s atmosphere and makes a bright line of light in the sky. When you see a shooting star, it is said to be lucky, and some people make a wish.5 Out by the parking lot David and I found the perfect alcove for our Superman dramas. (Para 5)A parking lot is the American equivalent of a car park, British English.A lot in American English refers to a small area of land used for aparticular purpose.6 During recess, David and I came into our own. (Para 6)To come into one’s own means to have the opportunity to show how goodor useful someone is. Here the two children are good at imaginative playwith Superman games.7 We ignored the boys playing baseball on the gravel court and thegirls giggling at dodge-ball in the dell. (Para 6)Dodge-ball is a game played by children standing in a circle or on opposite sides of an area. A rubber ball is thrown by those outside, whotry to hit those in the circle. The children in the circle try to dodge the ball to avoid being hit.8 Our Superman games made us outlaws … (Para 6)An outlaw is a criminal, especially one who moves from place to placeto avoid being caught. There are many famous stories of outlaws in Western culture, eg Robin Hood, Billy the Kid, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Ned Kelly etc. Here, the two children are outlaws because they play their imaginative games against the custom of other games like dodge-ball.9 … the sallow mamma’s boy on our block w ho was left out of theboys’ games ... and skin his fat knees. (Para 6)Mamma, mama, momma, mummy are children’s names for mother (mum). A mamma’s boy is one who depends too much on his mother and is not independent when he should be.To skin one’s knees m eans to hurt one’s knees by falling on a rough surface in a way that causes some skin to be removed.10 At the time my Uncle Frank was living with us while waiting to be drafted … (Para 8)The draft means conscription into the armed forces for military service. People who are drafted are made to join the army, navy etc; they are conscripts or draftees not volunteers.Reading and understanding3 Answer the questions.1 What were Sylvia Plath’s most important memories?She remembered winning a prize, Paula Br own’s new suit and the view from her window.2 Where did she live and what could she see from her bedroom window?She lived on the bay side of town, on Johnson Avenue, and she could see the lights of Boston and LoganAirport from her bedroom window.3 What did the view make her want to do?It made her want to fly in her dreams.4 Why did she have such vivid dreams?Because she was rarely tired when she went to bed.5 Who appeared in her dreams?Superman appeared and taught her to fly.6 Why did she enjoy the radio adventures of Superman?Because she loved the sheer poetry of flight.7 Where did her friend and she play Superman?At the dingy back entrance to the school, an alcove in a long passageway.Unit 2 Childhood memories468 Why do you think they chose Sheldon to be the villain?Because he was a mamma’s boy and was left out of the other boys’ games.9 How did she feel about her Uncle Frank?She admired him as she thought he bore an extraodinary resemblance to Superman incognito.4 Choose the best summary of the passage.3 Sylvia Plath wrote about her real and imaginary life as a child.Dealing with unfamiliar words5 Match the words in the box with their definitions.1 accurate and true (definite)2 continuing all the time (perpetual)3 to spin quickly in circles (whirl)4 to shine very brightly (blaze)5 to laugh in a nervous, excited or silly way that is difficult to control (giggle)6 to encourage someone to speak or continue speaking (prompt)7 to fall to the ground (tumble)6 Complete the paragraph with the correct form of the words inActivity 5.Plath never needed to be (1) prompted to talk about her childhoodmemories. They were very (2) definite and still real to her as an adult.She imagined she could fly and (3) whirl through the air like Superman. Coming from the highways around Boston was the (4) perpetual sound of traffic. In the distance a plane was taking off, its lights (5) blazinginto the night sky. She remembered the sound of (6) giggling which camefrom the group of girls. Sadly in her later life it seemed as if Superman had (7) tumbled to earth.7 Replace the underlined words with the correct form of the words inthe box.1 The lights at the airport went on and off all day and night. (blinked)2 The playground was like a desert. It was without any interesting or positive features and unfriendly. (barren)3 The boys were playing a children’s game in which the players chase and try to touch each other and the girls were gossiping and giggling. (tag)4 Pulling the legs off insects is a form of action causing extreme physical pain by someone as a punishment, and is extremely cruel. (torture)5 The similarity in appearance between the twins was striking. (resemblance)6 He would cover candy with a piece of cloth used for cleaning lips and hands, and make it disappear. (napkin)8 Answer the questions about the words and expressions.1 If you look through a kaleidoscope, are you likely to see (a)changing coloured patterns, or (b) a single coloured pattern?2 If you flaunt something, do you (a) deliberately try to make people notice, or (b) try to hide it?3 If you marvel at something, do you find it (a) boring, or (b) surprising and fascinating?4 Are shooting stars likely to (a) move brightly through the night sky, or (b) stand still?5 Is the twilight likely to be (a) at the end of, or (b) in the middleof the day?6 If you drift off to sleep, are you likely to fall asleep (a) quickly, or (b) slowly?7 If someone is bookish, are they likely to be (a) more, or (b) less interested in reading books than doing other activities?8 If you make up something, do you (a) invent it, or (b) borrow it from someone else?9 If you come into your own, are you likely to show (a) how effectiveand useful, or (b) ineffective and useless you can be?10 Is a villain likely to be a (a) good, or (b) bad person?11 If you are left out of something, are you likely to be (a) included, or (b) excluded?Active reading (2)Language points1 These changing ideas about children have led many social scientists to claim that childhood is a “social construction”. (Para 4)A social construction refers to the process or result of creating an idea or system of behaviour in social contexts, ie it is created and developed between people and is not something natural or genetic.2 Social anthropologists have shown this in their studies ofpeoples ... (Para 5)Social anthropologists are scholars and researchers who study human societies, customs and beliefs from a social perspective, which may be distinct from the focus of physical anthropologists or linguistic anthropologists.3 Because they can’t be reasoned with, and don’t understand, parents treat them with a great deal of tolerance and leniency. (Para 5) Tolerance is the attitude of someone who is willing to accept other people’s belie fs or way of life without criticizing them even if they disagree with them. The word leniency means giving a punishment or acting in a way that is not as severe or harsh as it could be.4 They are seen as being closer to mad people than adults because they lack the highly prized quality of social competence … (Para 6) Something is prized if it is considered to be very important or valuable. The examples in the passage emphasize how different cultural communities may give importance to quite different qualities which they expect from children, so the children are brought up very differently.5 They are regularly told off for being clumsy and a child who falls over may be laughed at, shouted at, or beaten. (Para 6)To tell someone off means to criticize someone angrily for doing something wrong. If you are told off for doing something in a serious or official way, you are reprimanded.6 Looking at it from a cross-cultural perspective shows the wide variety of childhoods that exist acrossthe world … (Para 11)A cross-cultural perspective is a view which considers different cultures separately or independently and then makes comparisons. An intercultural perspective would look at the relations and interactions between different cultures or communities, taking inside views of each culture into account. A transcultural perspective would look at different cultures using knowledge, skills and insights which are thought to apply to a wide range of cultural contexts and which would help people in intercultural contexts.Reading and understanding3 Read the passage again and complete the table.Teaching tips• When Ss have completed the table on their own, divide the class into seven groups, each group being responsible for one row in the table. They have to summarize the characteristics of childhood of this ethnic group, and also include an example. Then they report to the class. Each group should also add related information they learned from the passage, and the language and culture notes. The presentation of each group could be given from that exact roles of parents from that exact cultural or ethnic group. If this is difficult, T may give each group a copy of the example below, and ask them to practise and present it to the class.• As a way to follow this up, T can ask each group, one by one, to compare their result with that of another group, without looking at their books. An alternative follow-up is for the T, together with one or two Ss, to take the roles of TV reporters who meet each group and ask them “on camera” to compare themselves with another group, and talk about how they understand the other group from a cross-cultural perspective.1 We are American colonial people. We lived in the 17th and 18th centuries on the east coast of America and our families settled here from Europe. In our time, children were expected to be good and industrious. That was the main characteristic of childhood. For example, when our girls were four they knitted stockings and mittens; when they were six they spun wool. We called them “Mrs” to show the girls our appreciation.2 We are Inuit people from the Arctic regions. Some of us are from Canada and Greenland, Denmark, others from Russia and Alaska of US. For us, children need to get ihuma – you would call this the process of acquiring thought, reason and understanding. That’s the main characteristic ofchildhood.For example, as parents we are tolerant and lenient with children until they are old enough to develop ihuma, then we can teach them and discipline them.3 We are from Tonga, a kingdom of about 170 islands in the south-west Pacific Ocean. As parents, we may regularly beat our children if they haven’t yet developed poto. You would think of poto as social competence. For us, it’s the main quality that our children need to develo p. So we treat them with discipline and physical punishment when they are mischievous or wilful.4 We are the Beng people. We live in different parts of West Africa. The main characteristic of childhood is that young children are thought to be in contact with the spirit world. They come to the world reluctantly because life in the spirit world is so pleasant. As parents, we have to look after our children properly, or they may return to the spirit world. We have to treat them with care and reverence. They can know and understand everything we tell them, whatever languages we use.5 We are parents from the Western world today. Some of us are from Europe, others from North America, Australia and other places. The main characteristic of childhood in our countries is that children are incompetent and dependent, so they should play, be part of the family and go to school. Children should not work. For example, a child under 14can’t look after a younger child unsupervised because they aren’t competent or responsible yet. If we found a child of 12 working in afactory or in a market, the social services could intervene and the family could be prosecuted.6 We are Fulani people. Most of us live in West Africa. For us, the main characteristic of childhood is that children are competent and responsible. So by the age of four our girls can care for their younger siblings; by six they can pound grain or produce milk and butter which they can sell in the market alongside us.7 We are the Yanamamö people from the Amazonian rainforest. We live among the hills where you probably call the border between Brazil and Venezuela. The main characteristic of childhood is that children are responsible and competent. Our girls help their mothers from a young age and by the age of ten they will be running the house. This is important because they will probably be married at 12 or 13.Our boys have fewer responsibilities. They can play because they don’tget married until later.Culture / Ethnic group Characteristics of childhoodAmerican colonial expected to be good and industriousInuit develop a process of acquiring thought, reason and understanding Tongaregularly beaten and told off by parents and older siblings, seen as being verynaughty, until they develop social competenceBengtreated with great care and reverence, believed that they are in contact with thespirit worldChildhood memories Unit 255Culture / Ethnic group Characteristics of childhoodWestern world todayseen as incompetent and irresponsible; playing not working, going to school notlabouring, consumption instead of productionFulani competent and responsible; expected to workYanamamöcompetent and responsible; girls expected to work from a young age, be marriedand have children at 12 or 13; boys having fewer responsibilities and gettingmarried later4 Choose the best way to complete the sentences.1 The characteristics of childhood a hundred years ago (d) .(a) would have interfered in their education(b) are similar to those of today(c) would be illegal today(d) meant that children were treated more like adults2 The idea that childhood is a social construction suggests that (a) .(a) children experience childhood in different ways according to the society in which they live(b) enormous transformations have taken place within a relatively short time(c) children in the past worked harder(d) all children are different from adults3 Both Inuit and Tongan parents understand that (b) .(a) their children need to be treated in a way which would beconsidered harsh by outsiders(b) their children don’t yet possess certain prized qualities, such as reasoning and social competence(c) growing up is a process of acquiring thought, not social skills(d) bringing up their children requires tolerance and discipline4 Parents of Beng children treat them with great care because they (d) .(a) think children know all human languages and understand all cultures(b) think life in the earthly world is unpleasant(c) believe the children still live in a spirit world(d) fear the children may choose to return to the spirit world wherethey lived before they were born5 Western childcare practices (c) .(a) include allowing eight-year-old girls to work and 12-year-old girls to marry(b) treat the child in a bizarre and possibly harmful way(c) see the child as being incompetent, dependent on the parents, and incapable of looking after other children(d) are only similar to Yanamamö childcare practices in that girls help out at home, and boys are allowed to play well into their teens6 The main idea of the passage is that (c) .(a) history shows us how our perception of childhood has changed(b) childhood is viewed in different ways according to the child’s cultural and social upbringing(c) both history and society can affect our perception of childhood(d) Western notions of childhood are outdated and not informed(continued)Dealing with unfamiliar words5 Read the passage again and find the words in the box.

When we're adults, we long for the carefree daysof our youth when we could play all day without worry. This is one of the greatest ironies of life .In deed, "the grass isalways gree ner on the other side." It is a harsh truth that huma ns always want what they can't have. It's our n ature.That's why it's good practice to in still in our childre n a healthy respect for childhood. Too many adults seem to bein a hurry for children to grow up. We always ask them, "What do you want to be whe n you grow up?" We repeatedlytell them, "You can do/have that whe n you're older." We continually encourage them, "When you grow up, the world willbe yours and you can make your dreams come true." It's no wonder, then, that children seem to be in such a rush togrow up, get older, and dema nd everyth ing that we tell them is coming to them.Children should be free to play the day away. Weshould encourage them to use their imagination, create entireworlds in a cardboard box, and explore their backyard as if they were exploring an undiscovered country. You cannotput a price on an active and fertile imagination, nor can you overestimate the value of an inquisitive mind, a respect forthe environment, and an urge to question why everyth ing is as it is. These traits are all developed and n urtured whe nwe're childre n and, without them, we would not be able to fun cti on as adults in the moder n world.Research has show n that childre n are happiest and healthiest whe n they have the freedom to actlike childre n. This may seem obvious, but it's ofte n forgotte n as pare nts push their childre n to study harder, practice Ion ger, and esse ntially act like adults. It's importa nt to remember that childre n are con sta ntly lear ning. Therefore, they are also lear ning as they're play ing. Explori ng nature fosters a respect for the environment that may lead children to become biologists or n aturalists. Creati ng with paint and cray ons in stills a love of art that might help develop young artists or musicians. Playing make-believe stimulates the imagination in a way that writers, filmmakers, and actors find most useful. Building with blocks helps the mind understand how things are con structed and might lead to an in terest i n engin eeri ng.It's true that play helps develop skills that will be used later in life. However, this should not be the sole purpose of play. Childre n should play because they're childre n. It's how they stay happy, healthy, and young. Why should we push them to be someth ing they're not?41. Which of the follow ing sentences is the main idea of this passage?A. It is a harsh truth that huma ns always want what they can't have.B. Too many adults seem to be in a hurry for children to grow up.C. Childre n should be free to play the day away.D. It's true that play helps develop skills that will be used later in life.42. Which of the following would the writer of this passage likely NOT agree with?A. Adults should un dersta nd that childre n lear n while they play.B. It is importa nt for childre n to play and act young.C. Many games help childre n appreciate pote ntial careers.* D. Childre n should concen trate on their schoolwork above everythi ng else.43.

大学英语综合教程3Unit 2答案

Unit 2Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:The song you are going to listen to is called Abraham, Martin & John, sung by Dion.Abraham, Martin & JohnDionHas anybody here,Seen my old friend Abraham,Can you tell me,where he's gone,He freed a lotta people,But it seems the good die young,I just loohed around,And he's gone,Has anybody here,Seen my old friend John,Can you tell me, where he's gone,He freed a lotta people,But it seems the good die young,I just loohed around,And he' s gone,Has anybody here,Seen my old friend Martin,Appendix I- 95 -Can you tell me, where he's gone,He freed a lotta people,But it seems the good die young,I just looked around,And he's gone,Didn't you love the things they stood for,Didn't they try to find some good for you and me,And we'll he free,Someday soon it's gonna be one day,Has anybody here,Seen my old friend Bothy,Can you tell me,where he's gone,I thought I saw him walhin'up over the hill, WithAhrah am,Martin and John.The unit we are going to study is all about civil-rights heroes. The song you have just heard is about four of them. Can you guess who they are? All are American. All are dead, all, as the song says, "gone". How about Abraham? Dion says he freed a lot of people. That's one clue. Another comes when she quotes the proverb: "the good die young." So it seems Abraham died young. My guess is Dion has in mind Abraham Lincoln, the American president who freed the slaves and was assassi-nated. How about John, another leader who helped people to free themselves? He too died young. Can you guess who it might be? President John F. Kennedy seems most likely. He too supported civil rights. He too died young, assassinated like Lincoln.Now who could Martin be? Another civil-rights leader who died young, once again assassi-nated. A great speaker comes to mind. Who do you think? Martin Luther King, surely. And finally, Bobby. Bobby who? Probably Dion is thinking of Bobby Kennedy, John Kennedy's brother, another supporter of civil rights. He was running for president when, like his brother before him, he too was gunned down.- 96 -Appendix IPart II Text AText Organization1.2.

In this contextPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksModel paperThe Civil-Rights Movement in the U.S.Black Africans were first brought as slaves to what was to become the United States in the seventeenth century. Slavery was strongest in the South, where large plantations grew cotton, to-bacco, and other crops. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, a growing demand for cotton led to an increase in the demand for slaves in the region. Slavery was less profitable in the North, however, and much of the opposition to slavery came from the northern states. The tension between the North and the South over the issue of slavery led to the Civil War in 1861.With the victory of the North, slavery was abolished. Discrimination, however, did not end. Black Americans were treated as second class citizens, especially in the South. Dissatisfaction with unfair treatment eventually led to the civil rights protests of the 1950s and 1960s that brought about government action aimed at reducing discrimination.As a result, African Americans have come a long way in the last fifty years, but they still find themselves at a disadvantage in comparison with Americans of European descent. Only 17 per cent of the black population are able to finish higher education, in contrast to 28 per cent of whites. Incomes for the average white family were just over $44,000 in 1999. For an average black family, however, the figure was in the region of $25,000. Not one of the chief executive officers of the top 500 companies is black.Anyway, the civil-rights movement in the U.S. still has a long way to go.(254 words)。

Given the critical situation at the time when lots of army men didn’t return alive, you can imagine how much horrified Aunt Susan was every day, and how much overjoyed she was to see Uncle Robert back safe and sound from the European battlefield. Then they got married and brought up five children. For all those years, their affection for each other grew stronger in the course of overcoming difficulties and hardships in life. I was fascinated by Aunt Susan’s story, which was totally different from my ideal of love. They practiced, in their daily life, giving and sharing instead of pursuing passion and romance, or making complaints. Amazingly, such love lasted through their whole life.Theme-Related WritingDo either one of the following two tasks after class.1.Based on Text A, write a passage about the different ways different generations handle male-female relationships. The following hints may be of some help.1) “our” parents’ generation (details mainly foundin Para. 8);2) “my” generation (details mainly found in Paras. 3–7);3) the younger generation (details mainly found in8Paras. 9–11).2.Study the following data on love and marriage based on a survey with girl students. Write a passage on the topic “What do girl students l ook for in love and life?”▆ Sample Essay One:Male-female relations are indispensable to adults all through their lives. But different generations handle them differently. Our parents’ generation lived in an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. They kept a distance from people of the opposite gender in order to preserve the holiness of love and relationships.My generation, on the other hand, began with countless crushes for the opposite sex just because of their superficial charm. Harmless as they were, the love was as brief as soap bubbles. As we grew up, we came to the stage of developing real relationships, believing that love demanded a lot of give and not so much of take.By comparison, the younger generation is more open-minded and less restricted in handling the matter of love and relationships. They jump on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities.9In short, the younger generation focuses more on physical beauty, closeness and passion, and they tend to seek what they want from the relationships. The other two generations give priority to inner charm, intimacy, emotion and sharing in dealing with relationships. (196 words)▆ Sample Essay Two:What Do Girl Students Look for in Love andLife?In order to know about girl students’ opinion about love and life, a survey with girl students was conducted in 2005 in two universities —Chongqing University of Technology and Business and East China Normal University. The survey sought answers to two questions: What do you look for first in a boyfriend? What’s the most important thing for a happy life?About one third of the students chose personality as the top factor in choosing a boyfriend, followed by 27 percent focusing on abilities. Next came common interests and goals, favoured by 17 percent, with only 14 percent of students claiming appearance to be uppermost in their minds. Fewer still, 11 percent, rated economic status as the first consideration.As to their views about a happy life, nearly seventy percent of the girls attached the greatest importance to marriage and family. “Career” was given top priority by just under 20 percent, while even10fewer, around 9 percent, believed that money was the key to a happy life.Based on the survey, we may conclude that nowadays, girl students generally hold a rational attitude towards love and life. Admittedly, the improved material conditions of life explain why girls take economic status and money rather lightly. But contrary to the popular view that girls are more concerned about self-development in the workplace and social status, they still regard marriage and family life as central to a happy life.
