You just find a way to join in with a normal conversation and say something about what you would like.2range This word can mean a number of things of the same general type, the distance or limits of something, or to move freely.(a) What can you find in a shop which stocks a wide range of products?You can find products of all kinds, a good variety of them.(b) What would be the best thing to do if you were within range of someone with a gun?Run quickly away out of range if there is time; if not, take shelter.(c) Which is the biggest mountain range in China?Well, the Himalayas are the highest, but the Tian Shan or Kunlun mountain ranges are longer.(d) What have hens which lay free-range eggs been able to do?They have been able to run and walk around freely, compared to hens which are kept in small cagesor containers.3 reflect This word can mean to be a sign of a situation, or to think carefully about something.(a) Whose image is reflected if you look in a mirror?Your own image is reflected back to you when you look in a mirror.(b) Do you believe that the state of the economy can be reflected in the height of hemlines?I wouldn‘t have believed it before I read the passage, but I believe it now!(c) Do you ever reflect on the mistakes you make in English?Yes, I do try to reflect on them because I know such reflection is a good way to improve my English.4 rise This word can mean an increase in number, amount or value, or the achievement of success or power.(a) Why was there a sharp rise in unemployment in the West in the 1930s?The sharp rise in unemployment was due to the stock market crash and the financial crisis.(b) What do you know about the rise and fall of the Roman Empire?I know that over several hundred years the Roman Empire expanded, but after a time it then declined over a long period. There‘s a famous book called The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire. (c) Do you live in a high-rise block of flats?I know that a lot of people in cities in China do live in large apartment blocks which have many floors, maybe 15 or 20 or more, but I live in a flat in a much smaller house of just three floors.(d) What are the different factors which give rise to new fashions?Fashion designers produce innovations and new styles. There are changes in the economic situation so that people may spend more or less on clothes; also new materials and colours become available,and people get different ideas about what to wear when they travel to other places or watch filmsand TV.6 Translate the paragraph into Chinese.Sometimes the hemline indicator, as it‘s called, can even precede and predict a change in the mood of the stock market long before it actually happens. In September 2007, at the New York fashion shows, which were displaying their styles for spring 2008, the trend was for much longer dresses and skirts, many to mid-calf or even down to the ankles. Some people felt this showed that the hemline indicator was no longer reliable, and that designers no longer dictated what people would wear. During the London and New York fashion shows in September 2008, hemlines continued to drop. But sure enough, in the fall of 2008, the stock market indexes fell dramatically when the banking crisis hit the US, Europe and then the rest of the world. Hemlines were no longer following the stock market – they were showing the way and indicating future economic trends.有时候,所谓的裙摆指标甚至能事先早早就预告股市的变化。

Unit 1攻势已经持续了三天,但是我们并没有取得多少进展。

师长命令我们营夜晚绕到敌人后方发起突然袭击.然而,要绕到敌人后方,我们必须越过一片沼泽地。

我们很多人担心会陷入泥潭之中。

我们营长决定冒一下险。

所幸由于寒冷天气沼泽地都结上了冰,我们于天亮前到达目的地并从敌人后方发起进攻。

这一下扭转了战局。

敌人没有戒备,不就便投降了。

The offensive had lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground. The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy at night and launch a surprise attack。

To do this we have to cross a marshland, and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. Luckily enough, thanks to the severely cold weather which had made the marshland freeze over, we arrived our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear。

This had turned the tide of the battle。

The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered。

《大学英语4 》复习自整理2017年6月20日柏映羽版权所有,请勿翻印第一单元MAN AND NATURE一.TEXTA(P4-7)课文翻译:人在自然界亚历山大•斯伯金1 人类生活在大自然的王国里。

他们时刻被大自然所包围并与之相互影响。

人类呼吸的空气、喝下的水和摄入的食物,无一不令人类时刻感知到大自然的影响。

我们与大自然血肉相连,离开大自然,我们将无法生存。

2 人类不仅生活在大自然之中,同时也在改变着大自然。

人类把自然资源转变为各种文化、社会历史的财富。

人类降服并控制了电,迫使它为人类社会的利益服务。

人类不仅把各种各样的动植物转移到不同的气候环境下,也改变了他所生活环境的地貌和气候,并使动植物因之而发生转变。

3 随着社会的发展,人类对大自然的直接依赖越来越少,而间接的依赖却越来越多。

我们远古的祖先生活在大自然的威胁及破坏力的恐惧之中,他们常常连基本的生活物资都无法获取。

然而,尽管工具不甚完备,他们却能同心协力,顽强工作,并总是有所收获。

在与人类的相互作用中,大自然也发生了改变。

森林被破坏了,耕地面积增加了。

大自然及其威力被看成是和人类敌对的东西。

譬如,森林被认为是野性的和令人恐惧的,因此人类便想方设法使其面积缩小。

这一切都是打着“文明”的旗号进行的,所谓“文明”,就是指人类在那些地方建立了家园,那些地方的土地得以耕耘,那里的森林已被砍伐。

4 然而,随着岁月的流逝,人类越来越关注的是在何处以及如何得到生产所需的不可替代的自然资源的问题。

科学与人类改变大自然的实践活动已经使人类意识到了工业在改变地球的进程中对地质产生的重大影响。

5 目前,人与自然以及自然与社会整体之间过去存在的动态平衡,已呈现崩溃的迹象。

生物圈中所谓可替代资源的问题变得极为严重。

人类和社会的需求,即便是像淡水一样的物质,也变得越来越难以满足。

清除工业废物的问题也变得日益复杂。

6 现代技术的特征是生产和使用日益丰富的人工合成产品。

人们生产成千上万种人工合成材料。

全新版大学英语综合教程4课后翻译答案Unit 11)The offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground. The division commander(营长)instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. By a stroke of luck, the marsh froze over because of the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Unit 2Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the waypeople live, travel, and do business. On the other hand, theyhave brought hazards, especiallyhighway fatalities. However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors indesigning and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents. Forexample, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to startup the engine. They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out fromorbiting satellites and greatly reduce your chances of getting stuck in traffic jams.Unit 3Well begun, half done,as the saying goes. It is extremely important for a job applicant to do hishomework while seeking employment.From my standpoint, whether or not one has done hishomework clearly makes a difference in his chance of success.I have a friend who is earning somewhere in the neighborhood of100,000 dollars a years in a largecomputer software company. He told me that from his own experience the decision makers whointerview prospective employees like people who are well prepared. Those who make no endeavor tolearn as much about his prospective employer as possible don’t have much of a chance of success.Unit 4Globalization has great implications for young Chinese. For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs. And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important. At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimisticoutlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy. The internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere. They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions. Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Unit 5For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive. For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton. In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel. He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indiffer ent to Lenny’s death. Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit 6Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more. Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well/ good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families. It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to stay and communicate the feeling with our families. Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.。

大学体验英语综合教程4全文翻译(带课后答案)

Unit 1无名英雄:职业父亲意味着什么?在我们的孪生女儿出生后的第一次“约会”时,我和丈夫一起去看了一部名为《玩具故事》的电影。

我们很喜欢这部片子,但随后我丈夫问道:“父亲在哪儿呢?”起初我还认为因为一个小小的失误而批评一部很吸引人的家庭影片似乎是太偏狭了。

可后来越想越觉得这一疏忽太严重了。

父亲不仅没有出现,他甚至没有被提到——尽管家中有婴儿,说明他不可能离开太长时间。

影片给人的感觉是,父亲出现与否似乎是个极次要的细节,甚至不需要做任何解释。

新闻媒体倾向于把父亲的边缘化,这只是一个例子,它反映了在美国发生的巨大的社会变化。

大卫?布兰肯霍恩在《无父之国》一书中将这种倾向称之为“无需父亲”观念。

职业母亲(我想这应是与无职业母亲相对而言的)奋斗的故事从媒体上无尽无休地轰击着我们。

与此同时,媒体上绝大多数有关父亲的故事又集中表现暴力的丈夫或没出息的父亲。

看起来似乎父亲惟一值得人们提及的时候是因为他们做家务太少而受到指责的时候(我怀疑这一说法的可靠性,因为“家务”的定义中很少包括打扫屋顶的雨水沟、给汽车换机油或其它一些典型地由男人们做的事),或者是在他们去世的时候。

当布兰肯霍恩先生就“顾家的好男人”一词的词义对父亲们进行调查时,许多父亲都回答这一词语只有在葬礼上听到。

这种“无需父亲”综合症的一个例外是家庭全职父亲所受到的媒体的赞扬。

我并非暗指这些家庭全职父亲作出的承诺不值得人们的支持,我只是想指出在实际生效的双重标准:家庭全职父亲受到人们的赞扬,而家庭全职母亲和养家活口的父亲,所得到文化上的认同却很少,甚至完全得不到。

我们用来讨论父亲角色(即没出息的父亲)的话语本身就显示出人们对大多数男人默默无闻而自豪地履行对家庭承担的责任缺乏赏识。

我们几乎从来没听到“职业父亲”这一说法,在人们呼吁应该考虑给予工作者在工作地点上更大的灵活性时,很少有人认为这种呼吁不但适用于女子,同样也适应于男子。

我们这个社会表现出似乎家庭职责对父亲来说并不象对母亲那么重要——似乎事业上的满足就是男人生活的全部。

Well begun is half done, as the saying goes. It is extremely important for a job applicant to do his homework while seeking employment.

他认为,在一个多元化社会里,不同意见是不可避免的。

关键在于怎样正确对待不同意见,使之发挥建设性、而非破坏性的作用。

他还说,在一个多元化社会里,我们必须注重人际关系,强调合作,多从他人视角考虑问题。

如果某些群体自视高人一等,不尊重其他种族或宗教,那么整个社会有可能陷入瘫痪。

我相信,要是我们把上述想法付诸实践,那我们就有可能创造出一种新的文明。

Professor Huntington's paper greatly inspired me. According to him, in a plural/pluralistic society, there will inevitably be different opinions. The key is to deal withthem in such a way that they can play a constructive rather than destructive role. He argues that in a plural society we must attach importance to interpersonal relationships, cooperation, and looking at issues from the perspective of other people. If some groups regard themselves as superior and treat other ethnic groups or religions with disrespect, the whole society may be paralysed.就我来说,如果要雇个职员我肯定不会单凭他的长相就作出决定。
