新核⼼⼤学英语读写教程1课⽂翻译及课后题答案第五单元Unit Five Benefits of MusicⅠ. Pre-listening ActivitiesPart 1略■ScriptThe minds of young people are filled with eternal hope, which reflects in their musical creations. This can be clearly seen while watching them learn to play musical instruments and when they are performing. The combination of young minds and music brings joy and hope.There have been a lot of studies conducted on the influence of music. In the elderly people, music has been shown to not only reduce tension and anxiety but also helps reduce the feeling of isolation and solitude. And a surprising revelation of this study was that the subjects enrolled for this study showed an increased production of human growth hormone, which has a positive effect on the side effects of aging like wrinkling, general aches and pains.Health workers can draw an important inference from this study. It shows that group activity and interaction with others is important for staying healthy and having a better standard of living. It proves the long held belief that music is a means to link with our higher selves and thereby help us lead a healthy life that can be enjoyed to the fullest.Ⅱ. Listening TasksTask 1 Understanding News Reports1. D2. A3. B4. C5.B6. C7. A■ScriptNews Item OneQuestions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.The World Bank has warned that 100 million more people will be pushed into poverty by 2030 unless action is taken to prevent global warming. It says global warming will ravage crops and fuel the spread of malaria and other diseases. Laura Becca reports from Washington.“The World Bank says that climate change is already having an effect on the poorest people who are struggling to raise crops in extreme weather and low rainfall. They say the world’s poorer receive fewer resources and are woefully unprepared to deal with further climate shocks such asrising seas or severe drought. They’re calling for more to be done to help those in need and they want world leaders to act to reduce carbon emissions. That report had been released just a few weeks before a UN climate summit in Paris.”Questions:1. Which of the following statements about the impact of global warming is NOT true?2. How are the world leaders supposed to help the poor according to the news?News Item TwoQuestions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.Many parties and concerts at SXSW feature new music. This one honored Buddy Holly, the great singer and songwriter who died in 1959. He was only twenty-two when he died in a plane crash while on tour.This event was organized by the Buddy Holy Foundation and its principal mover, Buddy Holly’s widow, M aria Elena Holly. The foundation’s aim, among others, is to help aspiring artists survive success.Maria Elena says Buddy Holly had lost the rights to some of his own songs because he was new at the music business. She says the idea for the foundation came from Buddy himself.Austin entertainment attorney Stephen Easley says the foundation tries to help aspiring musicians learn the business. The Buddy Holly Foundation will give an award beginning next year. It will include ten thousand dollars and free ma nagement services, and is named for Holly’s song, “Learning the Game”.The Buddy Holly Foundation and Maria Elena Holly are encouraging musicians, young and old, to make sure that Buddy Holly’s music does not “fade away”.Questions:1. What do we learn about the Buddy Holy Foundation from the news report?2. What will be the award given by the Buddy Holly Foundation?News Item ThreeQuestions 1 to 3 will be based on the following news item.Forbes magazine says there are now a record of 1226 billionaires on its annual rich list, compared with 140 when it was launched 25 years ago. The Mexican telecoms magnate Carlos Slim, who’s worth an estimated $69 billion, tops the list for the third year in a row followed by the software magnate Bill Gates and financier Warren Buffett. No Indian billionaires are in the top 10 this year, and the only Chinese one is the Hong Kong property magnate Li Ka-shing. Steve Forbes explains why.“Well, what it tells us is there’s a lot of churn. There hasn’t been a lot of growth in the economy in the last year. The number of billionaires went up 16, but yet some regions go down: China went down a little bit; Russia went down because of weak commodity prices. But the fact is there hasn’t been a lot of real vigorous growth in the worl d, and that’s reflected on the list this year.”Questions:1. How many billionaires were on the list when Forbes magazine was launched 25 years ago?2. Who came first on the list for three consecutive years?3. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the news?Task 2 Understanding a Long ConversationsConversation One1. D2. B3. C4. A5. DConversation One1. B2. B3. B4. D■ScriptConversation OneM: How are your new neighbors, Jane?W: They seem nice enough, but they have a son who’s driving me cra zy.M: What happened?W: He comes home every night around 10, and immediately plays some Rock and Roll loudly after he enters his house. But by then Brian and Lisa are wide awake.M: Oh, no.W: Oh, yes. Sometimes it takes us till mid-night just to get them settle down again.M: Have you tried talking to them?W: We have n’t even really met them yet except to say a quick hello. I hate to get off on the wrong foot.M: You are not going to like them if you can not settle it as soon as possible.W: I know, but I feel stupid complaining.M: You said yourself it is driving you crazy.W: Well, you know how early I have to get up to be here at the office. I’m just not getting enough sleep and neither are the kids. They’re so irritable when I get home in the afternoon.M: Maybe you could go over sometime with a little gift—a plant for the yard or something. Then you could ask about their son whether they have any other c hildren and they’ll be sure to ask about yours.W: Yeah, and then what?M: Then you could mention that the hardest thing is getting your kids to get sleep at night.W: And keeping them in the sleep.M: That’s the idea. And you should do it soon. The longer you wait, the harder it’ll be to do politely.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. What does the woman think of her new neighbors?2. What bothers the woman according to the conversation?3. Why is the woman reluctant to speak to her neighbors about the problem?4. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the woman and her children?5. What suggestion does the man offer?Conversation TwoM: Is it difficult to be a top DJ? 22-year-old Jodie White thinks so. Jodie is a classical musician, but she learned how to be a DJ for a TV reality show, and she did it in just four weeks. Jodie, tell us what happened.W: Well, I had a lot of help. Two experienced DJs helped me.M: But what did you have to do?W: First, I had to change my image. I was a bit unfashionable before, so I went shopping and bought new jeans and trainers. I also changed my hair.M: Yes, you look very different now.W: But buying new clothes was easy. It was more difficult playing the records.M: It doesn’t look difficult.W: That’s what I thought, but it is. I had to learn about pop music, about different groups, and I had to find songs that sounded good together. I was listening to hundreds of records every week.M: Did you practice often?W: Yes, I did. But I was disorganized and I made mistakes. The experienced DJs were very organized. They had all their records ready. People didn’t like the music I played and I was unhappy about that.M: But you didn’t stop.W: No, I didn’t. I wanted to get it right. I was playing records eight hours a day—I wasn’t practicing my flute at all!M: Did it make a difference?W: Yes it is. After four weeks, I was ready to be a real DJ.M: How did you feel?W: Well, I was feeling nervous when I arrived at the club. We started late and the people were impatient. They looked unfriendly, but when I started playing my music, it was great. People were dancing and enjoying themselves.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. How long does it take for the woman to become a DJ?2. What did the woman do to change her image?3. What did the woman do in order to learn how to play the records?4.

B2. D3. A4. D5. C■ScriptListening for general informationForget counting sheep, next time you are having trouble dropping off to sleep, try putting ona jazz CD. Researchers have shown just 45 minutes of relaxing music before bedtime can make for a restful night.The Taiwanese researchers studied the sleeping patterns of 60 elderly people with sleep problems. They told the Journal of Advanced Nursing, how the technique was easy to learn and lacked the side-effects of other treatments. The study participants were either given a choice of music to listen to before going to sleep or nothing at all. The music group were able to choose from six tapes that featured soft, slow music—around 60-80 beats per minute—such as jazz, folk or orchestral pieces.Listening to music caused physical changes that aided restful sleep, including a lower heart and respiratory rate, the researchers found. The people in the music group reported a 35% improvement in their sleep, including better and longer night-time sleep and less dysfunction during the day.Listening for specific information1. According to the passage, which of the following is the best when you have trouble getting tosleep?2. How many people participated in the study?3. What advantage did the technique have in treating sleep problems?4. What kind of music did people in the music group listen to?5. What would listening to music probably result in according to the researchers?Passage TwoListening for general information1. stimulate the mind2. create a meditative moodListening for specific information1. D2. B3. C4. A5. B■ScriptListening for general informationLet’s face it—we all have some form of stress. Whether it’s due to work, school reports, family, or relationships, we could all use a break now and then. Yet in the hustle and bustle of everyday’s life, a lot of us can’t find the time to just drop everything and take it easy.Well, what if someone told you that by just playing music from classical composers like Mozart, Strauss, or Vivaldi, you might find your job a little easier and that it is beneficial to your learning and mind relaxation. It can also reduce our levels of stress. Various studies of children have shown that those who receive music education or play a musical instrument often have increased academic skills. Don Campbell, author of The Mozart Effect, has dedicated himself to studying the effects of music on the mind and body. He counsels students that classical music playing in the background can help them concentrate for longer periods of time and memorize material more easily. He feels that Mozart’s music has a balance that makes it especially beneficial. But Campbell doesn’t stop with Mozart. He says that Bach can stimulate the mind, military marches can rev up the body, and religious music can help create a meditative mood. It’s important to find what works best for your situation.So the next time you feel yourself overwhelmed with work and deadlines, or if you’re just finding it difficult to concentrate,remember the power of music.Listening for specific information1. Why do people often suffer from stress according to the speaker?2. Which of the following is not mentioned as the benefits of listening to classical music?3. What does Don Campbell study?4. What makes Mozart’s music especially beneficial?5. Which of the following statements is NOT true?Passage ThreeListening for general information1. It means listening to a Mozart Sonata increases IQ.2. Classical music, rock, hip hop, popular music etc.Listening for specific information1. A2. D3. B4. C5. B■ScriptListening for general informationIn 1993 researchers from the University of Wisconsin and UC Irvine discovered that listening to a Mozart Sonata increased IQ. This idea called the “Mozart Effect” has been confirmed by various studies around the world.The study suggested that IQ rises 8 to 9 points when listening to Mozart compared to silence. Other studies have suggested improved test scores after listening to Mozart Piano Concertos. Why does this occur?One reason is that classical music is generally very relaxing. Once the brain and body is relaxed, it is more receptive to new input. Classical music as opposed to silence or rock, hip hop or other popular music creates an environment that is conducive to cerebral activities.Not all pieces of classical music are relaxing or create an environment for better cognitive abilities. However, compared to other genres of music, classical music has shown the most potential for increasing IQ.Most classical music is “easy” to listen to, so much that it is sometimes considered “boring” compared to popular music. However, compared to other forms of popular music, it is less distracting. Therefore it helps improve focus while doing other activities.Anecdotal evidence has shown that playing classical music to plants increases the speed and development of plant growth, and that playing classical music to babies increases the reasoning skills of the child.Listening for specific information1. When was the study conducted?2. What happens to the brain when it is relaxed?3. Why do people sometimes feel bored listening to classical music?4. What will happen when playing classical music to plants?5. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?Ⅴ. Learn English Through a Radio Program1. summer is over2. falling to the ground3. the greatest songs4. have recorded this song5. a lovely version6. darker days and lost love7. the death of a father8. more hopeful song9. leaving the big city 10. the promise of new love ■Script略Ⅵ.

第一单元我的大学我的大部份大学生活是在哥伦比亚大学过。

2001年来中国之前,我一边在华尔街工作,一边任该校的经济学和金融学教授。

在那里既当过学生,又当过教师,我因此对哥伦比亚大学超级了解。

这并非奇怪,因为我记得,我学童时的妄图确实是上哥伦比亚大学,而且我一直深爱着它。

建于1754年的哥伦比亚大学是一所常青藤联盟学校,这也确实是说它与布朗大学、康奈尔大学、达特茅斯学院、哈佛大学、普林斯顿大学、宾夕法尼亚大学及耶鲁大学并列,是全美最古老的八所大学之一。

与其他七所学校一样,哥伦比亚大学在美国的历史中扮演了重要的角色,培育出了一批杰出人物,其中包括美国的开创人之一亚历山大·汉密尔顿——我个人以为美国领袖中最杰出也是最重要的一名。

这所学校过去的学生及教授包括富兰克林·罗斯福和约翰·杰伊等政治领袖,科学家恩里科·费密,诗人与作家杰克·凯鲁亚克和约翰·贝里曼,和美国历史上很多重要的知识分子。

同时,它是教师和毕业生取得诺贝尔奖最多的一所大学,共诞生了64位诺贝尔奖得主,仅在近五年中就在经济学、医学及物理学方面取得6项诺贝尔奖。

与之相较,麻省理工学院诺贝尔奖得主共有57人,牛津大学46人,哈佛大学40人,普林斯顿大学33人。

尽管大多数哥伦比亚人承认哥伦比亚大学在某些方面与世界上任何一所伟大的大学别无二致,但咱们一直坚持以为有三点使哥伦比亚大学有别于其他任何学校。

第一个也是最显而易见的不同确实是哥伦比亚大学的漂亮校园座落在纽约市正中心。

哥伦比亚大学的学生最初了解到的可能是这座城市的鼎鼎大名,但大多数学生专门快就学会适应并吸收这座城市的活跃思想。

对我来讲,哥伦比亚是一所座落在纽约市中心的很棒的学校,正是这点强烈地吸引了我,尽管那时我还小,还从没在大城市生活过。

在那里度过了最初的几礼拜后(一开始我常常对这座城市感到恐惧和惊惶失措),我意识到自己的直觉是正确的,我开始喜爱上纽约,胜过任何一个我曾到过的地址。

Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. I got blisters(水泡)from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration(合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie(大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it. We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school, He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

22..Egalitarianism 平等主义
Egalitarianism (from French égal, meaning "equal")—or, rarely, equalitarianism—is a trend of thought that favors equality for all people. Egalitarian doctrines maintain that all humans are equal in fundamental worth or social status, according to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the term has two distinct definitions in modern English. It is defined either as a political doctrine that all people should be treated as equals and have the same political, economic, social, and civil rights or as a social philosophy advocating the removal of economic inequalities among people or the decentralization of power. Some sources define egalitarianism as the point of view that equality reflects

Increased social life 2. Limited space3. Possible low GPA (grade point average)■ScriptThere are pros and cons of living on campusPros1. Accessibility to the school. If you live on campus, you can easily walk to the classes, libraries, computer labs, cafeterias, etc. You don’t have to waste time and money on driving to school, finding a parking space, and so forth.2. Increased social life. Living on campus will allow you to meet more people and establish more friendships than living off campus. You will also usually be aware of any campus activities and how to be involved in them.Cons1. Little privacy. When living in a dorm, it can be very hard to find privacy. You have to share bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. You may never have quiet time in your dorm because there will always be something going on.2. Limited space. At most colleges, the dorm rooms are tiny. You have to limit what you bring to school, or your space will be too crowded.3. Possible low GPA (grade point average). Because dorm life is very social, your grades may be affected in a negative way. If you constantly choose hanging out with your dorm buddies over studying at the library, then your GPA will suffer.Ⅱ.

Math, social studies, science and all other regular courses are taught in both languages. And they learn about the culture of the other country.Milady Baez is Deputy Chancellor of English Language Learners and Student Support. She says these dual-language programs will help children succeed in the future.“The jobs of the future require that our students know more than one language. They are going to be traveling abroad; they are going to be communicating with people from all over the world. This will open doors for them.”Questions:1.

But more universities are becoming “test optional”. Students who apply to test-optional schools can choose whether they want to include test scores in their applications.George Washington University in Washington D.C. is one of the latest schools to adopt a test-optional admissions policy for most of its applicants. It is the largest private university to drop the test requirement.Karen Stroud Felton is the Dean of Admissions at George Washington University.

The Institute of International Education and the State Department made the report.The study also demonstrates trends over the past 15 years. It shows that since 2000, the number of international students in the U.S. has grown by 72 percent. Students from China in undergraduate programs are mainly responsible for this trend.Questions:1. How many international students in the U.S. come from Asia?2. From 2013 to 2014, how many foreign students registered at U.S. universities?3.

However, the good news is it’s not as drastic as fifteen pounds. Food served in the dining halls is laden with fats while exercise in college has become a true burden. It is difficult to schedule a workout session among the already busy schedule filled with classes, clubs, homework, and organizations. Here at USC, the professors like to pack their students with work upon work, so students can truly “eat the fruits of the knowledge tree.” For an average student, it is considered a celebration if you could simply finish all your homework on time and sleep before 2 a.m. With that said, who cares about exercise?Listening for specific comprehension1.

He can’t stop the lecture in order to look up a new word or check an unfamiliar sentence pattern.The second thing the student has to do is to decide what’s important in the lec ture. Many lecturers pause, and speak more slowly and loudly, when they’re making an important point.The third task that faces the student is that he has to write down the important points. The student should abbreviate, write down the important words, usually nouns, sometimes verbs oradjectives, and should write one point on each line. He ought, if possible, to choose a moment to write when the lecturer isn’t giving vital information.Finally, the student’s notes must show the connections between the various points he’s noted. If he makes intelligent use of spacing and underlining, together with the use of conventional signs and the numbering of points, he’ll be able to understand the framework of the lecture more easily.

pretendthat it did not happen.You need to tell them that this was not OK and the friendships can no longermove on.It might be tempting to give someone the silent treatment,but remember that everything

我离开了家,因此有很多东西要去适应,比如说,自己依靠自己,和友好的人交谈,这些是我喜欢大学的一些方面。

首先,大学生活赋予我一种责任感、一种独立感。

父母不会再在身边对我说:“不行,你今晚不能出去。

”或者,“你做完家庭作业了吗?”我做的每件事都得自己决定,而这就使我必须对自己的生活负责。

在校第二周,我得出去找可以开账户的银行。

当我找到这家银行时,我得决定是开往来账户还是储蓄账户,是否要一个信用卡。

拿主意吧!快拿主意吧!人们都很友好,这是我喜欢大学的另一个方面。

我从纽约来到弗吉尼亚州玛丽蒙特大学的第一天,我搞不清这儿的路怎么走。

母亲和我开车进了学校,然而我们不知道要去的那栋房子在哪儿。

可警卫很好。

他笑着告诉我们要找的是哪栋房子,该在什么地方停车,我的房间在新格拉德一楼。

我知道我得通过几道玻璃门,可母亲和我却不知道是哪几道。

有些学生看到我,问:“你是新生吧?”当他们得知我在找新格拉德时,其中一个说:“啊,跟我们来吧,我们也去那里。

”即使是现在,我也感到住在学生宿舍里很舒服,因为可以和身边友善的人们聊天。

我的确喜欢大学里的很多东西,但这并不意味着我不想念家里的东西。
