新一代大学英语提高篇2第三单元课文读后感
新一代大学英语提高篇2第三单元课文读后感全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1My Thoughts on the Third Unit of the Advanced English Book for the New GenerationHi everyone! Today, I want to share my thoughts on the third unit of our advanced English book for the new generation. It's called "Amazing Animals Around the World." This unit was so much fun and I learned a lot about different animals. Let me tell you all about it!In this unit, we learned about animals from different parts of the world. We studied about kangaroos from Australia, penguins from Antarctica, elephants from Africa, and pandas from China. It was like going on an exciting animal adventure without leaving the classroom!One of the things I loved the most was learning about kangaroos. Did you know that kangaroos have a special pouch called a marsupium? It's like a pocket where they carry their babies. How cool is that? I think kangaroos are super cute, and I wish I could see one in real life someday.Another animal we learned about were penguins. They live in Antarctica, which is a very cold place. Penguins are great swimmers, and they use their wings to glide through the water. They also have a special way of walking called "waddling." It looks so funny, and I couldn't help but laugh when our teacher showed us a video of penguins waddling around.We also talked about elephants. Elephants are the largest land animals, and they have a long trunk called a proboscis. They use their trunks to eat, drink, and even to say hello to other elephants. I think elephants are really smart and gentle creatures. It's sad to know that they are endangered because of poaching and habitat loss. We should all do our part to protect them and their homes.Last but not least, we learned about pandas. Pandas are native to China, and they are known for their black and white fur. They are very cute and cuddly, and I wish I could give one a big hug. Pandas eat bamboo, and they spend most of their time eating and sleeping. I think pandas are the ultimate foodies!Studying about these amazing animals made me realize how diverse and wonderful our planet is. We should take care of these animals and their habitats, so they can continue to thrive. Ialso learned that we can all do small things to make a big difference, like recycling and conserving water.I had so much fun learning about these incredible animals in the third unit of our advanced English book. It was like going on a wild adventure! I can't wait to learn more and discover new things in the next unit. English is so much fun, and I'm excited to continue my language learning journey!That's all for now. Thanks for reading my thoughts, and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Bye-bye!篇2My Thoughts on the Story of the Boy and the Apple TreeHello everyone! I'm going to share my thoughts on the reading we did in English class. It was a neat little story about a boy and an apple tree. At first, I didn't think it would be that interesting, but it turned out to be a really nice tale with some good lessons.The story starts off when the boy is just a little kid. He loves playing around the apple tree in his backyard. The tree is like his best friend. He climbs on its branches, swings from the twigs, and just has a great time. And you know what the cool thing is?The tree is totally okay with it! The tree is happy to let the boy play and have fun.But as the boy grows older, he doesn't come around the tree as much. He gets busy with school, friends, and other stuff kids do as they get bigger. The tree feels sad because she misses the boy so much. I felt bad for the tree feeling that way. It made me think that even trees can have feelings and get lonely if we don't spend time with them.When the boy is a teenager, he comes back to the tree wanting some money. Instead of fruit, the tree suggests taking some of its branches to sell as firewood to make money. I thought that was really kind and selfless of the tree! The boy took the branches without even thanking the tree. That wasn't very nice of him. If I was the tree, I would have refused to give him anything for being so rude.As a young man, the boy comes back again, this time wanting a house to live in. The tree tells him to cut off its trunk and branches to build a house. That's an awfully big sacrifice for the tree to make! But it was willing to do that just to make the boy happy. I don't know if I could ever be that generous.The saddest part was when the boy, now an old man, came back and the tree had nothing left to give except a stump to siton. I got tears in my eyes reading that part. The tree loved the boy so much that it gave absolutely everything it had. And the boy finally learned to appreciate the tree for its generosity and companionship all those years.There are a few lessons I took away from this short story. One is that we shouldn't take people or things for granted, like the boy did with the tree when he was young. The tree was always there for him and he didn't see its value until it was too late. Another lesson is about the importance of giving and making sacrifices for people we care about, like how selfless the tree was towards the boy. And finally, I learned that it's never too late to make things right and show appreciation for others, just like the old man finally did with the tree at the end.Those are some heavy lessons for such a simple story! But that's why I think children's stories are so powerful - they teach us big truths about life in a small, understandable way. This story of the boy and apple tree will really stick with me. From now on, I'm going to try harder to appreciate my family, friends, pets, and even our trees and plants! They all bring be so much joy, just like the tree did for the boy, and I don't want to be too caught up in my own little world to notice them. I'll make sure to say thanks, give hugs, and show how much I care.Thanks for reading my thoughts! I hope you enjoyed reading and discussing this story as much as I did. Let me know if you took away any other lessons or meanings from it. Stories can teach us all sorts of valuable things if we just take a little time to ponder them. Okay, time for me to go play outside and climb a tree!篇3My Amazing Adventure in the English Class!Hi everyone! Today I want to share with you my exciting experience in the English class. We have been studying a new unit called "The Third Unit" in the book "Advanced English for the Next Generation." It was super fun, and I can't wait to tell you all about it!In this unit, we learned so many interesting things about different cultures and countries. Our teacher, Miss Smith, started the class by showing us pictures of famous landmarks from around the world. We saw the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Great Wall of China, and even the pyramids in Egypt. It was like going on a virtual tour!After that, Miss Smith taught us some new words related to traveling and sightseeing. We learned words like "explore,""adventure," and "tourist." It was really cool to learn all these new words. It made me feel like I was a real traveler!But the best part of the class was when we read a story about a boy named Jack who went on an amazing adventure. The story was about Jack's trip to a mysterious island. It was full of excitement and suspense! I couldn't wait to find out what would happen next.As we read the story, we took turns reading aloud. It was so much fun! Each of us got to be a different character in the story. I was Jack's best friend, and I had to pretend I was scared when we encountered a big, scary monster. We all laughed and had a great time.After we finished reading the story, Miss Smith asked us some questions to check our understanding. She wanted to know what we thought about the story and if we could relate to any of the characters. We shared our thoughts and ideas with the class. It was amazing to hear everyone's different perspectives.At the end of the class, Miss Smith gave us a special assignment. She asked us to write a short story about our own adventure. We could use our imagination and create a story about anything we wanted. I was so excited! I decided to write a story about a magical journey to outer space.I went home and started writing my story right away. I imagined myself as an astronaut exploring distant planets and meeting friendly aliens. It was so much fun to let my imagination run wild!In conclusion, this English class was one of the best experiences I've had in school. I learned new words, read an exciting story, and even got to write my own adventure. English class doesn't feel like work anymore. It feels like a thrilling adventure! I can't wait for the next class and all the amazing things we will learn. English is awesome!That's it for my reading reflection. I hope you enjoyed hearing about my English class adventure. Remember, learning can be fun and exciting, just like going on an adventure!篇4My Thoughts on Unit 3Hi there! My name is Timmy and I'm in 4th grade. My teacher Mrs. Roberts just had our class read Unit 3 from this big English book called "New Era University English Improvement Course 2". At first I wasn't super excited because I thought it would be another boring reading. But it turned out to be really interesting!The unit was all about different cultures around the world. The first text was about this ancient city called Petra in Jordan. I had never even heard of Petra before, but after reading about it I really want to go visit someday. Can you believe that entire city was carved into rock cliffs? That's just mind-blowing to me. The pictures in the book showed these huge carved buildings and temples. I can't imagine how long it must have taken people to carve all of that out of solid rock! No wonder Petra is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.My favorite part about reading on Petra was learning about the Nabataeans who built it. They sound like they were a fascinating people. The textbook explained how they were expert traders and stonemasons who created an entire city in the desert as a hub along ancient trade routes. They were able to survive in such a harsh environment by building ingenious water collection and storage systems to catch rainwater. I'll never take clean running water for granted again after learning what the Nabataeans had to do just to have enough to drink!The next reading was on a topic I was way more familiar with - baseball! I'm a huge baseball fan so I was psyched to read about how baseball started and its origins. I had no clue that the sport began back in the 1800s in the United States though. I justassumed it had been around forever and ever. The book went into detail about how baseball evolved from older British games like rounders. It was really interesting learning about the Amateur Baseball Association in 1857 that first laid out the key rules of baseball as we know it today. My favorite part was the old-timey illustrations showing people playing in those hilarious baggy pants and massive mustaches. Baseball has definitely changed a lot over the decades in terms of rules, equipment, and uniforms.What really blew my mind was finding out that baseball didn't just spontaneously get invented out of nowhere in America. The textbook provided evidence that it may have descended from even older stick-and-ball games played across Europe and all the way back to ancient civilizations! How crazy is it that the roots of our modern baseball can be traced to games humans were playing for fun thousands of years ago? That's pretty mind-boggling if you ask me. The Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans were the first recorded people to play sports kind of like baseball. Just imagining toga-wearing Romans hitting a ball around with a bat was a hilarious visual for me.After those first two readings, we transitioned to different cultural traditions and customs from around the globe. Welearned about the ancient Chinese tradition of foot binding which was sobering to read about. The idea of purposely deforming young girls' feet so they could have tiny "lotus feet" to make them more beautiful and marriageable is just disturbing to me. I had nightmares after seeing the pictures and x-rays of what those poor women's crushed feet looked like. It's hard to believe such an awful practice was the norm in China for centuries until it was finally outlawed in the early 1900s. At the same time, it was fascinating delving into the historical and cultural context behind foot binding. The textbook did a good job explaining how it was tied to ideals of beauty, status, and hierarchy in imperial Chinese society.That heavy topic was followed by a reading on a way more lighthearted tradition - the Carnival celebration in Brazil! I've always wanted to experience Carnival ever since watching the crazy colorful parade footage on TV. From the textbook's depiction, it sounds like an absolute blast. The streets of cities like Rio de Janeiro completely transform into this nonstop party for multiple days and nights. Everyone is dressed in wild costumes, dancing, singing, playing music - just an atmosphere of pure joy and energy. I loved learning the history of how Carnival emerged from the Catholic traditions of feasting and merrymaking before the fasting period of Lent. The book alsowent into the various Carnival traditions like the huge parade floats, samba dancing, throwing of confetti and streamers, and electing of a Carnival king and queen.But Carnival isn't all just fun and games. We read how it also has connections to political protests and satire targeting the government or societal problems. Some of the most famous Carnival music and costumes over the decades have had underlying messages or criticism baked into their celebrations. It reminds me of those protests where people dress in silly costumes or use humor and mockery to make their point. Carnival has been a way for Brazilians to express themselves freely, even when political speech was restricted at certain points.I think using art, music, and revelry to protest is a genius form of resistance!The final section we covered was about international etiquette and manners. I'll admit I zoned out a bit during the deadly dull parts about proper hotel, restaurant, and business etiquette across different cultures. {yawn} However, I did find the examples of etiquette mistakes pretty hilarious. Like how in certain Middle Eastern countries, it's offensive to show the bottom of your foot because feet are considered unclean. So you have to be really careful about how you sit and avoid everpointing your feet at someone. The textbook said there have been cases of foreigners accidentally causing diplomatic controversies just by crossing their legs the wrong way! My favorite "etiquette fail" was about the hand gestures Americans use that are actually super rude in other places. For example, the "OK" hand sign is no big deal here but is basically giving the middle finger in certain countries. And that casual hand wavey think we do for "Hey, over here" or "What's up?" apparently means "Get lost" in parts of Europe. No wonder so many travelers find themselves in awkward situations when they don't understand the local customs!That's just a small sampling of everything packed into this unit on cultures and traditions worldwide. I gained so much random knowledge that I can't wait to show off to my family. Maybe I'll start doing that foot wave at my grandma and see if she has any clue why I'm telling her to get lost. Just kidding! I definitely don't want to be unintentionally rude. This unit was an awesome reminder that no matter how normal certain behaviors seem to me, there are so many diverse perspectives and histories behind various customs around the world. I have a much greater appreciation now for just how different cultures can be - even with something as simple as hand gestures or celebratingholidays. Embracing that diversity and seeking to understand others is so important in our increasingly interconnected world.Anyways, those are my thoughts on this English unit all about amazing cultures both modern and ancient. I gave you a general overview but there was soooo much more depth in the actual readings and material. If you haven't checked out this book yet, I highly recommend it! It opened my eyes to so many fascinating traditions through vivid writing, illustrations, and photographs. Who knew learning could be this fun and interesting? Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go practice my samba moves in preparation for joining the Carnival celebrations someday. Thanks for reading!篇5My Amazing Adventure with Unit 3 of the Next Generation University English BookHello everyone! Today I want to share my incredible experience with Unit 3 of the Next Generation University English Book. It was so much fun and I learned a lot of interesting things. Let me tell you all about it!First of all, the title of the unit was "Exploring Nature's Wonders". Wow! I was so excited because I love nature andeverything about it. The unit had a beautiful picture of a lush green forest with colorful birds flying around. It made me feel like I was already on an adventure!The first part of the unit was about different animals and their habitats. I learned about elephants, lions, dolphins, and even some exotic animals like pandas and koalas. The book had some amazing pictures of these animals, and it felt like they were jumping out of the pages! I also learned interesting facts about each animal, like how elephants use their trunks to drink water and how dolphins communicate with each other using special sounds. It was like going on a safari without leaving my classroom!The second part of the unit was all about plants and flowers. We learned about the different parts of a flower and how they grow. Did you know that flowers need sunlight, water, and nutrients from the soil to grow? I found it fascinating! We also talked about different types of trees and how they provide us with oxygen. Trees are like our green superheroes!But the most exciting part of the unit was when our teacher took us on a field trip to a nearby park. We were going to explore nature firsthand! It was a sunny day, and I could feel the fresh breeze on my face as we walked through the park. We saw talltrees, colorful flowers, and even a pond with ducks swimming in it. It was like entering a whole new world!Our teacher gave us a worksheet with questions about the things we saw in the park. We had to observe the plants and animals around us and write down what we noticed. I saw butterflies fluttering around the flowers and squirrels playing on the trees. It was amazing to see nature up close and personal!After the field trip, we had a class discussion where we shared our experiences and what we learned. I was so excited to tell everyone about the animals and plants I saw. We also talked about the importance of taking care of our environment and how we can help protect nature. I realized that even as a kid, I can make a difference by planting trees, recycling, and not littering.In conclusion, Unit 3 of the Next Generation University English Book was an incredible adventure for me. I learned so much about animals, plants, and the beauty of nature. The field trip was the highlight of the unit, and it made me appreciate the wonders of the natural world even more. I can't wait for the next unit and the adventures it will bring!Remember, my friends, let's always take care of our environment and protect the amazing world we live in. Together, we can make a difference!Thank you for reading my reading response. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it!篇6My Thoughts on the Third Unit of the Advanced Version of New Generation College EnglishHello everyone! Today, I want to share my thoughts on the third unit of the advanced version of New Generation College English. This unit is all about a very interesting topic - "The Power of Dreams." Dreams are like magical journeys that take us to places we have never been before. They inspire us to reach for the stars and make our wishes come true.In this unit, we read a story called "The Dream Catcher." It's about a young girl named Lily who loves to dream. She believes that dreams have the power to change our lives and make us happy. I really liked this story because it made me think about the importance of dreams in our lives.The story taught me that dreams are not just something we have when we sleep, but they are also the hopes and goals we have for the future. Lily's dream was to become a famous artist, and she worked hard to make it come true. She practiced painting every day and never gave up, even when things got tough. I admired her determination and it taught me that if we believe in our dreams and work hard, we can achieve anything.Another thing I learned from this unit is that dreams can inspire us to help others. In the story, Lily used her paintings to raise money for a children's hospital. She wanted to make a difference in other people's lives and bring them happiness. This made me realize that our dreams can have a positive impact not only on ourselves but also on the people around us.One activity in this unit that I really enjoyed was creating a dream board. We were asked to think about our dreams and make a collage of pictures and words that represent them. It was a lot of fun searching for pictures and thinking about what I want to achieve in the future. I chose pictures of books and a graduation cap because my dream is to become a writer and graduate from college. Every time I look at my dream board, it reminds me of what I want to accomplish and motivates me to work towards my goals.Overall, the third unit of the advanced version of New Generation College English was inspiring and thought-provoking. It made me realize the power of dreams and how they can shape our lives. I learned that dreams are not just fantasies, but they are the fuel that drives us to become the best version of ourselves. I also learned that dreams can have a positive impact on others and inspire us to make a difference in the world.I would recommend this unit to all my friends because it teaches us the importance of dreaming big and working hard to make our dreams come true. It's never too early to start dreaming and setting goals for ourselves. So, let's dream big, work hard, and make our dreams soar high in the sky!That's all for today. Thank you for listening to my thoughts on the third unit of the advanced version of New Generation College English. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Keep dreaming and never stop believing in yourself!。

In today's fast-paced world, it is easy to become overwhelmed with the various tasks and responsibilities that come with being a student. However, with proper time management, students can effectively prioritize their tasks and make the most of their time.One of the key benefits of time management is that it helps students stay organized and focused.

Bob Dylan Bob Dylan, born on May 24,1941 in Duluth, Minnesota in the USA, is widely regarded as perhaps America‟s greatest popular songwriter born in the twentieth century. Detailed Reading Much of his best work is from the 1960s when his musical shadow was so large that he took on political influence. The civil rights movement had no more moving anthem than his song Blowin’ in the Wind. Millions of young people embraced his song The Times They Are A-Changin’ during that era of extreme change. The radical political group The Weathermen named themselves after a lyric in Dylan‟s song Subterranean Homesick Blues (“You don‟t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows”).

（2020年7月整理）全新版大学进阶英语综合教程第2册Unit3课文翻译.docWhy Do Friendships End?By Allison HunterThe only danger in Friendship is that it will end.– Henry David Thoreau1 I received an email from a reader who asked, “Why do some friendships end, no matter how much you want them to last?” She referred to having seen the question in one of my articles, Mystery of Friendship. As I wrote in it, I don’t think easy answers exist as to how friendships start, why some turn into lifetime o nes, and why some end. Although I’ve tried answering the first two questions in other articles (To Have A Friend and BeA Friend), I still get surprised by friendships that endure and disillusioned by ones that slip away. Eve n so, I’ll try to offer some ins ights here as to why friendships end.2 My simple answer is that friendships end because the situations friends are in or even the friends themselves change. Others have similar answers. First, the situations friends face may change. The decision to relocate for a new school or job cannot help but affect a friendship. Likewise, if a friend is in an accident, develops an illness, or loses someone close, these situations cannot help but affect a friendship. Does a friendship need to end because of these changes? No, but it’ll require adjustments that one or both friends might not be willing to make.3 Second, the friends themselves may change. A significant reason that friendships often end when friends are apart for an extended period of time (for summer camp, college, etc.) is that one or both of the friends change. I think it hurts less when bothfriends change, because then the breakup is more often mutual and so both friends get closure by both deciding to let go and move forward in their lives without each other. What tends to hurt most is when just one friend changes. One friend might change social circles, become involved in new social organizations, start to date, get a pet, or take on some other venture that consumes more time and passion. Again, a friendship can endure these changes, unless one or both of the friends for some reason decide not to invest the time and energy involved in the adjustment period. (For example, one friend might forget the importance of the friendship due to the high of having a new pet or might feel that the change is impossible to overcome when one gets married but the other is still single.) In this situation, breakups may not be mutual and so one or both friends feel betrayed and end up with bitter memories about what was a precious friendship to them.4 There are other reasons why friendships end. For example, as much as two people might wanta friendship to survive, oneor both of them might unintentionally neglect it. Friendship is often compared to a flower garden. Well, if flowers don’t get exposed regularly enough to sunlight and don’t get watered enough, flowers will wither and even die. The same applies to friendship. If week after week passes where plans are made to spend time together but are never honored, perhaps due to taking a friendship for granted, eventually even the closest of friendships may cease to have a reason to exist.5 Conflicts can also cause the end of friendships. If the flower is a fledgling plant, one blow might destroy it just as sometimes relati vely young friendships aren’t strong enough to enduremuch conflict. Even those amazing close friendships, where friends love us no matter what our faults are, need care when it comes to conflicts. Sure, if a flourishing flower gets stepped on, it might re vive on its own. Moreover, if it gets a little extra special care, it’ll probably bounce back as if it hadn’t ever been injured. At the same time, if a flower gets repeatedly trampled on, it’ll probably eventually break. Especially the friendships that have been around for a long time can endure storms, and even become stronger for them, but most friendships have breaking points.6 Nevertheless, while we can rarely predict at the outset which ones will last, most friendships do enrich us for however short o r long they’re a part of our lives.为什么友谊会终结？艾利森·亨特友谊内在的唯一危险是：友谊将会终结。

Every year, on June 19th, a professor from the University of Pisa climbs to the bell tower and measures the increase in the slant with special instruments. And every year the professor makes the same report: the tower has leaned a fraction of an inch more. Last summer, the 125 foot-high tower was leaning an incredible 15 feet out of line. Scientists say that unless a way is found to stop the tilt, the tower will collapse in less than 80 years.The tower is leaning because the soft subsoil of Pisa will not support it. Its foundation is sinking into the soil at an angle, causing the tower to lean. Since a tremor could shake the foundation loose, the ringing of the tower's bells was forbiddenin 1959. Trucks are not allowed to pass in the neighborhood of the tower for this same reason.1. The statement which best expresses the main idea of this passage is that _________.A. the Leaning T ower of Pisa is in increasing danger of collapsingB. every year a professor measures the increase in the tower's slantC. the tower is leaning because the subsoil of Pisa will not support itD. there is only one way to save the Leaning T ower of Pisa2. It can be inferred from the passage that last summer the tower was found tilted further by __.A. 15 feetB. more than one inchC. a fraction of an inchD. several inches3. The tower tilts more and more because ___________.A. the ringing of the bells causes a tremorB. there are passing trucks nearbyC. it is built on soft soilD. its foundation has been shaken loose4. Why is the tower described as defying the laws of gravity?A. It had resisted shaking tremors for hundreds of years.B. It was built on soft ground.C. It leans a fraction of an inch more every year.D. Scientists think that it should have collapsed long ago.5. Truck traffic has been forbidden in the neighborhood of the tower _________.A. to protect the driversB. to prevent accidentsC. as a precaution against shaking tremorsD. because trucks damage the foundationQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Napoleon Bonaparte was the master of Europe. He wanted to be the master of the whole world. But he had to first win England, and to win England he had to cross the English Channel in force. If only he had ships which could ignore wind and current and tide and outtravel the British war vessels.Just at that time, there came to his court an American inventor, Robert Fulton by name. Fulton had invented a way of propelling ships by steam instead of by sails.He had also worked out a submarine torpedo (鱼雷) boat. He made successful tests of both these inventions, to the satisfaction of Napoleon's most doubting navy experts.The problem was solved. It was Napoleon's God-given opportunity. He wanted very much to try Fulton's idea. Then he decided against it.If Fulton's invention should fail, Napoleon feared he would be the laughing-stock of Europe. He could not afford to be laughed at. So he refused to pay the price of a laugh, and incidentally, he threw away world conquest.6. Napoleon's refusal to pay the price of a laugh probably cost him _________.A. much troubleB. world conquestC. bloodshedD. immense human lives7. At first the naval experts of Napoleon were _____.A. suspiciousB. astonishedC. annoyed with Fulton's inventionsD. satisfied8. The ultimate aim of Napoleon was to __________.A. win EnglandB. conquer the whole worldC. outtravel the British war vesselsD. be the king of France9. Which of the following statements is true?A. Fulton was a French inventor.B. Napoleon threw away world conquest on purpose.C. Napoleon did not want very much to try Fulton's idea.D. Fulton's inventions proved to be successful.10. A submarine boat is one that _________.A. is used to carry passengersB. is able to operate under the surface of the seaC. carries mainly goodsD. is moved by one or more paddiesQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:All the useful energy at the surface of the earth comes from the activity of the sun. The sun heats and feeds mankind. Each year it provides men with two hundred million tons of grain and nearly ten million tons of wood.Coal, oil, natural gas, and all other fuels are stored-up energy from the sun. Some was collected by this season's plants as carbon compounds. Some was stored by plants and trees ages ago.Even waterpower derives from the sun. Water turned into vapor by the sun falls as rain. It courses down the mountains and is converted to electric power.Light transmits only the energy that comes from the sun's outer layers, and much of this energy that is directed toward the earth never arrives. About nine-tenths of it is absorbed by the atmosphere of the earth. In fact, the earth itself gets only one half-billionth of the sun's entire output of radiant energy.11. The sun is the source of all of the following EXCEPT____.A. gasolineB. natural gasC. atomic energyD. green plants12. Radiant energy is stored as carbon compounds by _____.A. plantsB. rainC. rockD. wind13. The sun's energy directly provides us with _____.A. rainB. vaporC. lightD. food14. The largest part of the radiant energy directed toward the earth is ______.A. stored by the current season's plantsB. absorbed by the earth's atmosphereC. turned into fuelD. used for electric power15. Of the sun's entire output of radiant energy, the earth receives _______.A. one tenthB. nine tenthsC. all that comes from the sun's outer layersD. a very small portionQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:With the invention and development of television, entertainment has grown much more visual in character and is demanding less and less use of the imagination, considered by many to be man's greatest faculty ; but its greatest inadequacy lies in its inability to exercise just those creative powers in men which are called upon and developed in the pursuit of a worthwhile hobby. This lack is not serious while a man is still fully employed in his day-to-day work which itself often gives him opportunities to create either with his hands or with his mind. At this time he seeks only some form of relaxation in his leisure. There comes a time, however, when he must retire from his occupation on account of age, and it is then that these shallower pastimes, useful enough as a form of relaxation, might cease to satisfy the hitherto active man. Today, many elderly people are finding this to be true, and seem constantly to be suffering from a sense of frustration after retirement, which reveals itself in a short temper and slow degeneration (衰退) of health, the two most common symptoms.16. The writer criticizes visual entertainment because _________.A. it does not require men's creative powersB. it cannot improve our intelligence and skillC. it demands too much of our imaginationD. it leads men to slow degeneration in health17. What is regarded as men's greatest faculty?A. Entertainment.B. Character.C. Hobbies.D. Imagination.18. While fully employed, men look for _______.A. visual entertainment that requires imagination in their leisureB. opportunities to create either with their hands or with their minds in their leisureC. something that will help them relax in their leisureD. creative hobbies in their leisure19. The elderly people find _________.A. that shallower pastimes can no longer satisfy themB. it unnecessary to cultivate creative hobbies in their younger daysC. retirement unnecessaryD. relaxation most suitable for their age20. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. hobbies are more important to the youth than to the elderly peopleB. we should develop worthwhile hobbies when we are youngC. in ancient time entertainment was more visual in characterD. hobbies are not important in the health of modem menPart III Vocabulary & Structure1.

The future of a nation depends in a large measure upon the quality of education and training.Theme-related writing1) Li Hui, my friend in high school, was born into a worker's family. She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice, because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the job opportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect her skills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chance came: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners would be given a scholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through her fingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certain that her dream will come true. (156 words)2) In my opinion, before a person becomes successful, he or she should fully understand the basic elements of success: competence, determination and optimism. For a person to succeed, he or she has toface great competition and excel in his or her chosen career. The person needs to demonstrate and prove his or her competence in dealing with problems. Without competence, the person can neither stand out among the crowd nor attract the attention of those who hold the keys to the doors of opportunity and advancement. Yet ability alone cannot guarantee success. Often enough, things do not go the way we have planned and failure is unavoidable no matter how intelligent or capable we may be. In such cases one needs to remain firm and optimistic, always believing that hard work will eventually pay off. If the person gives up halfway, success will never knock at the door. (149 words)。

综合教程二第三单元Taska
综合教程二第三单元TaskaScriptGeneration gaps have always existed. The generation who grew up with the first automobiles shocked their parents by having wild parties accompanied by jazz music in the 1920's. But one of the greatest generation gaps in history was the one between Boomers, those born in the years following WWII, and their parents and grandparents.My father was born in 1919. He spent his teenaged years in the Great Depression. Pleasures and pastimes were few for him, as he pulled through harsh economic times on a Minnesota farm. Poor dental care cost him his teeth by the age of thirty. So entertainment and having fun were rather low on his list of priorities. In addition, he disliked loud rock and roll music, and saw little reason in the student protests of the 60's.He was a great father, but you can see how his thinking and the thinking of his offspring would be so different.The parents who worked so hard to provide great lives for the post WWII-born children would one day find themselves disagreeing with their children over the cultural, musical, and political preferences. For instance, refusal to go to war in 1942 would have been regarded as cowardly. However, many Boomers were bold enough to question the very morality of the war in Vietnam, and to thereby burn draft cards and loudly protest and refuse to go, fleeing to Canada or going to jail, if necessary.Our parents just couldn't relate or understand.But not all of us protested the war or used drugs, though it's hard to imagine a Boomer not being into Rock and Roll. But even if we lived more straight-laced lives than the hippies on the nightly news, there's no doubt that our thinking was a whole lot different from that of our parents. And that constituted a massive generation gap that has not been repeated since.1. According to the speaker, one of the greatest generation gaps in history was theone between and their and .(1) Answer: Boomers(2) Answer: parents(3) Answer: grandparents2. People refusing to go to war in 1942 were considered ; whereas manyBoomers protested the war in Vietnam because they its morality.(1) Answer: cowards / cowardly(2) Answer: questioned3.

"Dear Sleepless in Seattle - You are most attractive man I ever laid ears on."Father: Wait, wait, wait. They called? How did they get our number? Oh, let me guess. You gave it to them.Son: You have to give them your phone number, or they won't let you on the air. "Dear Sleepless in Seattle, I live in Tulsa." Where is that?Father: It's in Oklahoma. Do you know where Oklahoma is?Son: Somewhere in the middle?Father: I'm not even gonna think about what they're not teaching you in school. I'm not gonna think about it. Yeah, someone in the middle. And generally speaking, we should rule out anyone that doesn't live near here.Son: She's willing to fly anywhere.Father: Well, she looks like my third grade teacher. I hated my third grade teacher. Wait a minute, she is my third grade teacher.Son: Aren't you gonna read any of these?Father: No, this is not how it's done. I'd much rather just see somebody I like and get a feeling about them and ask them if they want to have a drink.Son: Or a slice of pizza?Father: Not a dinner. Not necessarily on the first date. Because halfway through dinner you could be really sorry you asked them to dinner. Whereas, if it's just a drink, if you like them you could always ask them to dinner. But if not, you can just say, "Well, that was great." And then you go home. See what I mean? I wonder if it still works this way.Son: It doesn't. They ask you.Father: I'm starting to notice that.1) How do people get their mailing address?2) Can you guess what these letters are about from the context?3) Do you agree with what the man says about dating?Keys(1)They called and asked for it.(2) Love letters. These women want to be the man's girlfriend / wife.(3) Yes, it's quite reasonable.。
