Cultural Notes1. the Internet: an international computer network for the exchange of information. It was originally used mainly in the academic and military worlds but has since become available to the large and increasing number of people with personal computers. Other services, e.g. the World Wide Web, are available through it.The Internet is changing our lives and a parallel universe is rapidly emerging online. Today there’s scarcely an aspect of our life that isn’t being upended by the torrent of information available on the hundreds of millions of sites crowding the Internet, not to mention its ability to keep us in constant touch with each other via electronic mail. The Internet is saving companies billions of dollars in producing goods and serving the needs of their customers. Nothing like it has been seen since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, when power-driven machines began producing more in a day than men could turn out in nearly a year. The Internet and e-commerce are viewed as a global megatrend along the lines of the printing press, the telephone, the computer and the electricity.You would be hard pressed to name something that isn’t available on the Internet. Consider: books, health care, movie tickets, baby clothes, stocks, real estate, toys and airline tickets. American kids today are so computer savvy that it virtually ensures the United States will remain the unchal-lenged leader in cyberspace for the foreseeable future. Most kids use computers to play games and have email chats with friends.What’s clear is that, whether we like it or not, the Internet is an ever-growing part of our lives and there is no turning back.2.NBC (the National Broadcasting Company): the first of the original three US nationalbroadcasting companies.

However, Liu Shan was such an incompetent leader that the heavy responsibility of governing the Shu fell to the Prime Minister, Zhuge Liang. Fearing he would fail in the charge Liu Bei had given him, Zhuge Liang worked nightand day and did everything himself. Hoping to increase the Shu’s and strength, he persistently sought to unite with the kingdom of Wu against the kingdom of Wei.After a period of preparation, Zhuge Liang decided the time was ripe for an attack to the north. However, this attack was not successful. Zhuge Liang could only return to Shu and wait for his next opportunity to launch a campaign against Wei.After saving tax revenue for a few more years, Zhuge Liang decided to try again. When he was about to leave, he wrote a message for Liu Shan in which he described in detail the relative circumstances of Shu and Wei. He explained that the powers of the two kingdoms had not been mutually agreed upon. Given the situation, if Shu were not to attack Wei now, Wei would soon attack Shu. Liu Shan read the message and agreed that Zhuge Liang should dispatch the troops to the north. This message is what has become known in history as “The Pre-Dispatch Message.” At the end of it, Zhuge Liang wrote “I will spare no effort (literally “bow to exhaustion”) and fig ht with my last breath.” to indicate his sincerity and his wish to serve his country.Unfortunately, the Wei kingdom was much stronger than the Shu kingdom, and this campaign was also unsuccessful. However, Zhuge Liang refused to be discouraged; he continued to look for a chance to advance, driving the army against the power of Wei, until he finally became ill and died in camp with the army. In this way, he fulfilled his aspiration to “spare no effort and fight with his last breath” for Shu.Task TwoTranslate the following passage into Chinese.“朝九晚五”用来形容传统甚至可能单调的工作。

Mortgage is an agreement to have money lent, especially to buy a house or land, with the house or land belonging to the lender until the money is repaid. It enables a person to buy a house without having enough money to pay for it completely.

Cultural Notes1.The Internet: an international computer network for the exchange ofinformation. It was originally used mainly in the academic and military worldsbut has since become available to the large and increasing number of peoplewith personal computers. Other services, e.g. the World Wide Web, areavailable through it.The Internet is changing our lives and a parallel universe israpidlyemerging online. Today there is scarcely an aspect of our life that isn’t beingupended by the torrent of information available on the hundreds of millions ofsites crowding the Internet, not to mention its saving companies billions ofdollars in producing goods and serving the needs of their customers. Nothinglike it has been seen since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, whenpower-driven machines began producing more in a day than men could turnout in nearly a year. The Internet and e-commerce are viewed as a globalmegatrend along the lines of the printing press, the telephone, the computerand the electricity.You would be hard pressed to name something that isn’t available on theInternet. Consider: books, health care, movie tickets, baby clothes, stocks,real estate, toys and airline tickets. American kids today are so computersavvy that it virtually ensures the United States will remain the unchallengedleader in cyberspace for the foreseeable future. Most kids use computers toplay games and have email chats with friends.What’s clear is that, whatever we like it or not, the Inter net isanever-growing part of our lives and there is no turning back. 2.

However, Liu Shan was such an incompetent leader that the heavy responsibility of governing the Shu fell to the Prime Minister, Zhuge Liang. Fearing he would fail in the charge Liu Bei had given him, Zhuge Liang worked nightand day and did everything himself. Hoping to increase the Shu’s and strength, he persistently sought to unite with the kingdom of Wu against the kingdom of Wei.After a period of preparation, Zhuge Liang decided the time was ripe for an attack to the north. However, this attack was not successful. Zhuge Liang could only return to Shu and wait for his next opportunity to launch a campaign against Wei.After saving tax revenue for a few more years, Zhuge Liang decided to try again. When he was about to leave, he wrote a message for Liu Shan in which he described in detail the relative circumstances of Shu and Wei. He explained that the powers of the two kingdoms had not been mutually agreed upon. Given the situation, if Shu were not to attack Wei now, Wei would soon attack Shu. Liu Shan read the message and agreed that Zhuge Liang should dispatch the troops to the north. This message is what has become known in history as “The Pre-Dispatch Message.” At the end of it, Zhuge Liang wrote “I will spare no effort (literally “bow to exhaustion”) and fig ht with my last breath.” to indicate his sincerity and his wish to serve his country.Unfortunately, the Wei kingdom was much stronger than the Shu kingdom, and this campaign was also unsuccessful. However, Zhuge Liang refused to be discouraged; he continued to look for a chance to advance, driving the army against the power of Wei, until he finally became ill and died in camp with the army.
