Unit 1TEXT IComprehe nsionAn swers for referen ce:A. 1. As the saying goes, “ As you sow, so will you reap ” , which means whatever a man sows he will reap. The writer intends to convince the reader that making New Year's resolutions alsofollows this maxim. The more resoluti ons you make at the beg inning of the year, the better results you will have.2. He had read a number of books on self improvement before he made his resolutions. Hewrote out a long list of resoluti ons. He wan ted to make a differe nt man of himself —a lovi ngfather and an ideal husba nd—by trying to atte nd to every on e's n eeds.3. Having writte n a long list of resoluti ons, he Ion ged to put them into practice, thinking that they would be a great success.4. Judgi ng from the in formati on give n in the text, he was a serious and strict father to the childre n. He did not like to be bothered with questi ons. He n ever treated them as his equals. He showed no in terest i n their friends nor in what they were doing. Having a quick temper, he got excited easily and ofte n yelled at them. He did not allow any mischievous behaviour to go on at home. He was one of those husba nds who did not like to lift a fin ger to help his wife and do household chores. What he did in his free time was enjoy himself thoroughly. He had a good time at parties and liked to stay out late even if this meant he had a headache the n ext day. At home, what he did most of the time was either watch a footfall match or read the n ewspaper.5. He tried to be con siderate and helpful, but failed. All his efforts to be a good busba nd went con trary to his expectati ons. The whole family was throw n into disorder and con fusi on. His wife was anno yed by his good manners and smart remarks, thinking they were affected and that he was being sarcastio on purpose. She attributed his cheerfu In ess, good temper and thoughtfu In ess to not feeli ng his best after stay ing out late.6. He wan ted to do better but did not know how to do it appropriately. On New Year's Day, he was in a particularly cheerful and good mood, eager to ren der any service to his wife and childre n. Hedid everythi ng of his own accord. He was con siderate to his wife to the minu test detail and he graciously con desce nded to play jacks with Gretche n, build a sno wma n for the boys and strike up a con versati on with Kit. But the result in every case proved to be just the opposite to what he had expected. The writer behaved like a cha nged man. What he did was sudde nly totally differe nt from what he used to do, so his family was unprepared for this change. That's why, to them, his behaviour was too good to be true—his temper was too good to be believed, and his thoughtfu In ess was too great to be n atural.7. It means: “ The whole family are happy to see that your have come to be your usual self aga inand you are behav ing n aturally. At last everyth ing will go back to no rmal. ”B. Refere nee version:1. Quite obviously, anyone who was determ ined to be guided by the rules of self improveme nt I collected would be happy and have a richer life, i nfinite affectio n from his family and the love and respect of the com muni ty.2. Show your love readily and willi ngly.3. Whole hearted and genuine praise is really valuable.4. Join your childre n and treat them as your equals.5. I heard screams dow n the hall one after ano ther and I found Gretche n crying.6. The most uni mporta nt light task may turn out to be worthwhile if it is dealt with eagerly and with in terest.7.1 started to have a con versati on with Kit in a frien dly way and tried my best to achieve close agreeme nt and un dersta nding betwee n us.8.

English has now become one of the most widely used Ianguages in the world. In 1500, En glish was an in sig ni fica nt Ian guage, spoke n by the people livi ng on a small isla nd. Now it is spoken as the first Ianguage by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second Ianguage by many millions more. When people speak English, we may be able to tell which English it is —America n En glish, Australia n En glish, British En glish, In dia n En glish and so on. Besides, for differe nt purposes, we use differe nt En glishes: everyday En glish, bus in ess En glish, commercial En glish, diplomatic En glish, medical En glish, scie ntific En glish, tech ni cal En glish, legal En glish, journalistic English and so on. We also use different degrees of formality and can differentiate betwee n formal En glish, in formal En glish, and colloquial En glish.2. Style expresses the writer's in dividuality through his choice of words and sentence patter ns, and his selectio n and arran geme nt of material. Style freque ntly reflects the writer's pers on ality, mood, attitudes, educati on, and gen eralbackgro und. There are differe nt kinds of styles: homely, coarse, refin ed, iro nic, vulgar, pla in, childlike, formal, i nformal, wordy, colloquial, direct, gra ndiloque nt, and so on. We choose words to suit the audie nee, the occasi on, the topic, and the genre (e.g., short story, essay, argume ntati on). Certain words, exact and con crete as they are, are excluded from formal use, because they are not appropriate for formal occasions. It would be absurd if slang terms or vulgarisms were used to address an audie nee at comme nceme nt, or the other way round, if a very formal style, lo ng sentences and complex grammatical structures were used in a frie ndly letter. Yet if we have some idea of different styles, but don't know when to use which, this kno wledge is worse tha n useless.NounV erbAdjectiveAdverb1.beautybeautifybeautifulbeautifully3.moralitymoralizemoralmorally5.suggestio nsuggestsuggestivesuggestively7.admirati on admireadmirableadmirably9.imagi natio nimagi neimagi nativeimaginatively11. impressivenessimpressimpressiveimpressively13. expla nati on expla in expla natoryexpla natorily15. creativitycreatecreativecreatively2. resoluti on resolveresoluteresolutely4. illustrati on illustrateillustrativeillustratively6. collectio ncollectcollectivecollectively8. differe ncedifferdiffere ntdiffere ntly10. harm on yharm oni zeharm onio usharm onio usly12. distributi on distributedistributivedistributively14.3. This is an example of a very formal expressi on alon gside a colloquialism. Bags of fun is a sla ng term whereas extremely gracious is very formal Ian guage.Here is ano ther example of the same ki nd to show the in appropriate ness of a formal style mixedwith colloquialism .In a letter of applicati on, you begi n thus:Dear Sirs,I am writi ng to you in the hope that you still have a vaca nt place in your departme nt. If you hve not yet employed anyon e, I should like my applicati on for the positi on to be con sidered.And you con clude with:As to my character and fitn ess for the job, please rest assured that I am sure smart .In this last senten ce, job may be rather too in formal; employme nt or post would be more suitable. Smart is a colloquialism that means “ men tally alert, quick witted, and t ale nted ” . Moreover, the sentence Iam sure smart is very in formal and colloquial, and so it is in appropriate for the letter.4. Good use of En glish requires the appropriate choice of words for the expressi on of thoughts. To be in “ gooduse of English "therefore, a word must be used appropriately in a specific set of circumsta nces.K 2 25. Coy means “ shy, diffident, bashful ” . What the writer means here is: “ Do away withyour shyn ess. Decide what you want to say and say it as directly as possible in pla in words. Stop deceiv ing people and beati ng about the bush. Call a spade a spade."6. Some examples of euphemisms:1) a men tal home (= an insane asylum)slow (= dull in mi nd)reside nee (= house)a recon diti oned automobile ( = a used car)stout (= fat)The above words and phrases in italics are supposed to be more pleasa nt substitutes for those in pare ntheses.2) sk in tonic ( = cold cream. The term sk in ton ic may help the manu facturer to sell his productsmore easily.)3) Good ness me! Good ness gracious! Thank good ness. For good ness' sake! (It is supposed tobe blasphemous to use the word God in on e's speech, so good ness is used in stead of God.)4) “ Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no moretha n they can carry: this is called tran sfer of populati on. ” (This is quoted from George Orwell's“ Politicsand the English Language " . Euphemisms used here to hide some brutal, harsh, starkpolitical realities.)7. The writer means that in spite of the fact that he stron gly objects to the use of euphemisms, some euphemisms, having considerable vigour and vitality, can still be used as far as he is concern ed.8. It shows that the writer can foresee the in evitable fate of any euphemism, i.e., that any effort toavoid unpleasantness will end in failure, because a euphemism will quickly acquire the same“ n egative conno tati on ” as the word it has replaced. There is thus no sense in using euphemisms.B. Refere nee version:1. The richer life experie nee we have, and the more people from all walks of life we know, we will develop more exte nsive and flexible kno wledge of differe nt En glish styles and the ability to use each style appropriately whe n the occasi on arises.2. If we do not know whe n to use each style appropriately, or if we con fuse one style with ano therin appropriately, an un systematic and casual kno wledge of styles is of no use, or even worse.3. Neither “ bagsof fun ” nor “ extremelygracious in its suitable con text is a careless / casual expressi on of on e's ideas.4. It would, however, also be absurd / foolish to turn the judgment completely the other way round.K 2 35. Except in cases where they are used to achieve humorous effect, con temporary writersthink that euphemisms are too disgust ing, artificial and prete ntious.6. Suppori ng the argume nt made by using the outdated and stereotyped phrases that are often usedby trade union leaders would be as easy as shooti ng birds that n ever fly away.7. Some euphemisms are unu sual eno ugh to be funny. They are so unu sual that they become quite funny.8. Some people may also like extreme un derstateme nt.TEXT nComprehe nsion1. C2. C3. A4. B5. B6.

Childre n can learn basic less ons from them. For example, they may lear n thrift by heari ng a pare nt or gran dpare nt say, “ Waste not, want not. ” Young people tempted to be dish on est are ofte n able toresist the temptation by recalling “ Honestyis the best policy "Or persons faced with difficult tasks will be encouraged to persevere by keeping in mind that “ Little strokes fell great oaksmany tense situati ons are improved whe n one pers on or ano ther remembers that “ A soft an swerturns away wrath ” , or that “ Two cannot quarrel if one won't ”.K 2 4Proverbs are found in almost every Ian guage in the world, whether the Ian guage is writte n or no t.

Refere nee version:We should always bear in mind that in different circumstances we use the English Ianguage in differe nt ways. This fact, however, is ofte n forgotte n. When we thi nk about la nguage, we too ofte n think only of the more formal forms, especiallythe writte n forms. But we are not always readi ng and writ ing. We use sla ng, or at least colloquial forms, with friends and acqua intan ces. In certa in social situations, we use clich sethat we would probably blush to write down. We use polite speech when we speak to our elders or our superiors. We use high sounding Ianguage on importa nt occasi ons. We tell jokes and make comme nts about things or people n ear or far. We talk about ordinary things or of the secrets of the uni verse. We express feeli ngs to one pers on or to a group. We choose slightly different forms of Ianguage for each of these purposes. For a native speaker of En glish, his choice is partly in sti nctive and partly based on an aware ness of the kind of Ian guage that is expected of him.

Now that there was an opport unity for the soul of her n ephew to be saved, she could n't help feeli ng excited. She was look ing forward to the special meeti ng for childre n, un able to hide her eager ness.2 She told him that he could see and hear and feel Jesus in his soul whe n he was saved. Jesus would come to him and the child would see a light and feel differe nt in side. Being a child of twelve, he believed her and waited in great earn est for Jesus to come into his life.3 The writer purposely describes the members of the con gregati on in detail —— the old blackwome n weari ng plaits, and weather beate n old men; “ weather beaten” in dicates their richexperie nee of life. Since they believed in God and they said the same things about Jesus, the child did n't think it could be un true. The writer is suggest ing that the power of other people to make a pers on do what they believe is right is often irresistible.4 1) It is first men ti oned by the child's aunt in the sec ond paragraph, as an idea prese nted by his aunt in the process of trying to convince him of the importa nee of being saved.2) In the fifth one sentence paragraph the child was wait ing to see Jesus.3) It is repeated in the seventh paragraph, when the child was still waiting and longing to see Jesus.4) It it repeated aga in in the eleve nth paragraph, this time as an in direct accusati on of hypocrisy, since Jesus did n't punish Westley for tell ing a lie.5) The last time it is repeated is in the last paragraph, when it ends up in Langston's self revelati on of and regret over his dish on esty, and it helps to express his distress about havi ng bee n disillusi on ed.5 He believed that many old people certa inly knew better —that God would come into his life. He felt he had to wait patie ntly to see Jesus in spite of the heat, the crowd, and the earn est en treaties of some of the members of the con gregatio n. As he had n't see n Jesus, he did n't want to lie and say he had, for he was basically an hon est boy.6 The less ons he lear ned were：1) He could n't resist the power to do what a great many people thought he should. People, old and young, men and wome n, all believed in the existe nee of almighty God; he had to do what they expected of him and sit on the mour ner's bench to be saved and say Jesus had come.2) If he did n't want to hold everyth ing up, and if he wan ted to save further trouble, he had betterlie. The proverb “ Honesty is the best policy ” , he learned, did not always apply.3) Religi on was not what he wan ted. He could n't and would n't believe in his aunt and God any more since he had bee n deceived and forced to tell a lie.7 He was saved from sin in an ironic sen se. He was compelled to commit a sin (ie, to lie) in order to be “ saved from sin ” .B Refere nee version:1 Every ni ght for weeks, the priests gave serm ons, and people sang songs in praise of God, worshipped God and shouted for joy. Some sinners who had n ever showed sig ns of shame or repe ntance were saved from sin and the nu mber of the members of the church in creased rapidly.2 The clergyma n spoke on religious matters to the con gregati on. His speech was marvellously regular and melodious; it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain, grief and sufferi ng, loud and happy as well as Ion ely cries, and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to whe n they die.3 The whole buildi ng shook with all the pray ing and singing.4 All the people atte nding church service prayed only for me; their pray ing became one stro ng and powerful sound of pain and sufferi ng.5 The whole church became a sea of great joy.6 When everyth ing became quiet aga in, duri ng a respectful sile nee, which was broke n only by several people saying “Amen ” extremely joyfully and happily, all the children were given bless ings by the mini ster in the n ame of God.TEXT nComprehe nsion1 F (People were pleased because he was not only hon est but also a good bus in essma n.)2 F (In fact, they were greatly in terested in others' bus in ess.

(para. 2-4)Supporting evidenceA.Teachers called on males in class far more than on female students. (para 2)i)Its consequence: This has a tremendous impact on the learning process.ii)The reason for this: Active classroom participants develop more positive attitudesand go on to higher achievement.iii)Two examples:a.In many of the former all- women's colleges, the boys were taking over the class-room discussions and active participation by women students had diminished noticeably.b. A similar subordination of female to male students has also been observed in law and medical school classrooms in recent years.B.Teachers assigned boys and girls different tasks according to stereotyped gender roles. (para. 3)i) Its consequence: This prevented girls from participating as actively as boys in class.ii) An example: A teacher had the little boys perform the scientific experiment while the girls were given the task of putting the materials away.C.Gender-biased education is also reflected in the typical American teacher ' assumption. (para 4)i) The assumption: Boys will do better in the hard, masculine subjects of math and science while girls are expected to have better verbal and reading skills.ii) Three examples:a. American boys do develop reading problems, while girls, who are superior to boys in math up to the age of nine, fall behind from then on.b. In Germany, all studies are considered masculine and it is girls who develop reading problems.c.In Japan, where early education appears to be nonsexist, both girls and boys do equally well in reading.(3)The educational bias begins at home. (para 5)A.Supporting evidence:i) Boy preschoolers were permitted to go away from home in a much wider area than girl preschoolers.ii) Boys were encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity and physical skills, while girls are filled with fears of the world outside the home and with the desire to be approved of for their goodness and obedience to rules.B.The consequence when these lessons carry over fromthe home to the classroom: Girls are generally observed to be more dependent on the teacher, more concerned with the form and neatness of their work than its content, and more anxious about being right in their answers than in beingintellectually independent, analytical, or original.C.Conclusion: Through the educational process that occupies most of the child 'sw aking hours, society reinforces its established values and turns out each sex in its traditional and expected mold.2 CBDBCDVocabularyapproved 5) Bias1. 1) genetic 2) assign 3) noticeably 4)6) deprived 7) constituted 8) participation 9) unintentional 10) postgraduate2. conscious –unconscious negativeencourage –discourage –inferior positive –superiordirectly –indirectly biasedlimited – unlimiteddependentappropriately – inappropriately3. 1) C 2) D 3) A 4) E 5) B 6) C 7) F 8)B4. 1) turn out 2) carry over 3) calling on 4) put away 5) fallen behind 6) take overUnit 4Reading Comprehension 1. 1) Introduction(para 1)It is introduced in the article how teachers and parents canencouragecreativity in children.2) An important strategy for parents and teachers to follow (para. 2-3)A.

The approach: Combining the basics with the activities where students mustuse their imaginations.B. How to do so: By asking questions and meanwhile praising their ideas andnew thoughts.C.How to facilitate the process: To create an atmosphere in which there is norisk in being creative-- a place where wild ideas are honored and valued,never scorned or dismissed.6)Things parents can do at home to encourage creativity (para. 8-10)A.To involve children in decision making.B.To help children to understand the consequences of various decisions.C.To encourage them to talk out loud about things they are doing.

新编大学英语4课文参考译文及课后习题答案(Book 4)Unit 1享受幽默—什么东西令人开怀？1 听了一个有趣的故事会发笑、很开心，古今中外都一样。
这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。
那么，到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢？2 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人，因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。
这些学生文化差异很大，有来自拉丁美洲的，也有来自中国的。
我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。
这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。
3 为什么听我讲完一个笑话后，班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合，而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢？显然，有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。
而且，我们也发现有的人很善于讲笑话，而有的人要想说一点有趣的事却要费好大的劲。
我们都听人说过这样的话：“我喜欢笑话，但我讲不好，也总是记不住。
”有些人比别人更有幽默感，就像有些人更具有音乐、数学之类的才能一样。
一个真正风趣的人在任何场合都有笑话可讲，而且讲了一个笑话，就会从他记忆里引出一连串的笑话。
一个缺乏幽默感的人不可能成为一群人中最受欢迎的人。
一个真正有幽默感的人不仅受人喜爱，而且在任何聚会上也往往是人们注意的焦点。
这么说是有道理的。
4 甚至有些动物也具有幽默感。
我岳母从前经常来我们家，并能住上很长一段时间。
通常她不喜欢狗，但却很喜欢布利茨恩—我们养过的一条拉布拉多母猎犬。
而且，她们的这种喜欢是相互的。
布利茨恩在很小的时候就常常戏弄外祖母，当外祖母坐在起居室里她最喜欢的那张舒适的椅子上时，布利茨恩就故意把她卧室里的一只拖鞋叼到起居室，并在外祖母刚好够不到的地方蹦来跳去，一直逗到外祖母忍不住站起来去拿那只拖鞋。
外祖母从椅子上一起来，布利茨恩就迅速跳上那椅子，从它那闪亮的棕色眼睛里掠过一丝拉布拉多式的微笑，无疑是在说：“啊哈，你又上了我的当。
”5 典型的笑话或幽默故事由明显的三部分构成。
第一部分是铺垫（即背景），接下来是主干部分（即故事情节），随后便是妙语（即一个出人意料或令人惊讶的结尾）。

新编大学英语4课文翻译及课后习题答案
课内阅读参考译文及课后习题答案(Book 4)Unit 1享受幽默—什么东西令人开怀？1 听了一个有趣的故事会发笑、很开心，古今中外都一样。
这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。
那么，到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢？2 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人，因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。
这些学生文化差异很大，有来自拉丁美洲的，也有来自中国的。
我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。
这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。
3 为什么听我讲完一个笑话后，班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合，而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢？显然，有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。
而且，我们也发现有的人很善于讲笑话，而有的人要想说一点有趣的事却要费好大的劲。
我们都听人说过这样的话：“我喜欢笑话，但我讲不好，也总是记不住。
”有些人比别人更有幽默感，就像有些人更具有音乐、数学之类的才能一样。
一个真正风趣的人在任何场合都有笑话可讲，而且讲了一个笑话，就会从他记忆里引出一连串的笑话。
一个缺乏幽默感的人不可能成为一群人中最受欢迎的人。
一个真正有幽默感的人不仅受人喜爱，而且在任何聚会上也往往是人们注意的焦点。
这么说是有道理的。
4 甚至有些动物也具有幽默感。
我岳母从前经常来我们家，并能住上很长一段时间。
通常她不喜欢狗，但却很喜欢布利茨恩—我们养过的一条拉布拉多母猎犬。
而且，她们的这种喜欢是相互的。
布利茨恩在很小的时候就常常戏弄外祖母，当外祖母坐在起居室里她最喜欢的那张舒适的椅子上时，布利茨恩就故意把她卧室里的一只拖鞋叼到起居室，并在外祖母刚好够不到的地方蹦来跳去，一直逗到外祖母忍不住站起来去拿那只拖鞋。

(para. 2-4)Supporting evidenceA. Teachers called on males in class far more than on female students. (para 2)i) Its consequence: This has a tremendous impact on the learning process.ii) The reason for this: Active classroom participants develop more positive attitudesand go on to higher achievement.iii) Two examples:a. In many of the former all-women’s colleges, the boys were taking over the class-room discussions and active participation by women students had diminished noticeably.b. A similar subordination of female to male students has also been observed in law and medical school classrooms in recent years.B. Teachers assigned boys and girls different tasks according to stereotyped gender roles. (para.3)i) Its consequence: This prevented girls from participating as actively as boys in class.ii) An example: A teacher had the little boys perform the scientific experiment while the girls were given the task of putting the materials away.C. Gender-biased education is also reflected in the typical Ame rican teacher’ assumption. (para 4)i) The assumption: Boys will do better in the hard, masculine subjects of math and science while girls are expected to have better verbal and reading skills.ii) Three examples:a. American boys do develop reading problems, while girls, who are superior to boys in math up to the age of nine, fall behind from then on.b. In Germany, all studies are considered masculine and it is girls who develop reading problems.c. In Japan, where early education appears to be nonsexist, both girls and boys do equally well in reading.(3) The educational bias begins at home. (para 5)A. Supporting evidence:i) Boy preschoolers were permitted to go away from home in a much wider area than girl preschoolers.ii) Boys were encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity and physical skills, while girls are filled with fears of the world outside the home and with the desire to be approved of for their goodness and obedience to rules.B. The consequence when these lessons carry over from the home to the classroom: Girls are generally observed to be more dependent on the teacher, more concerned with the form and neatness of their work than its content, and more anxious about being right in their answers than in being intellectually independent, analytical, or original.C. Conclusion: Through the educational process that occupies most of the child’s waking hours, society reinforces its established values and turns out each sex in its traditional and expected mold.Vocabulary1. 1) genetic 2) assign 3) noticeably 4) approved 5) Bias 6) deprived7) constituted 8) participation 9) unintentional 10) postgraduate2.conscious- unconsciousencourage- discouragedirectly- indirectlysexist – nonsexistdependent- independentpositive – negativesuperior - inferiorbiased – fairlimited – unlimitedappropriately- inappropriately3. 1) C 2) D 3) A 4) E 5) B 6) C 7) F 8) B4. 1) turn out2) carry over3) calling on4) put away5) fallen behind6) take overunit4Reading Comprehension1. 1) Introduction(para 1)It is introduced in the article how teachers and parents can encourage creativity in children.2) An important strategy for parents and teachers to follow (para. 2-3)A. The strategy:To encourage children to spend time thinking and developing new ideas. B. The significance for adopting the strategy:If children can be taught to think creatively, they will be better able tofunction in tomorrow’s society.3) The definition of creativity (para. 4-5)A. Who successful students and adults are:Those who can find a number of ways to approach problems.B. What creative people can do:They can use what they have to produce original ideas that are good forsomething.4) A big problem in school (para. 6)The problem: Children can obtain and give back information, but can’t figure out ways to apply what they know in new situations.5) A new approach to teaching (para 7)A. The approach: Combining the basics with the activities where students mustuse their imaginations.B. How to do so: By asking questions and meanwhile praising their ideas and new thoughts.C. How to facilitate the process: To create an atmosphere in which there is norisk in being creative-- a place where wild ideas are honored and valued, never scorned or dismissed.6) Things parents can do at home to encourage creativity (para. 8-10)A. To involve children in decision making.B. To help children to understand the consequences of various decisions.C. To encourage them to talk out loud about things they are doing.

(para. 6-7)A. Sometimes people put athletes on a pedestal.Example: I have had parents in Utah put my picture on the wall beside JesusChrist. (para. 6)B.

新编英语教程4_李观仪版练习册答案Unit 1TEXT ⅠComprehensionAnswers for referenceA 1 As the saying goes As you sow so will you reap which means whatever a man sows he will reap The writer intends to convince the reader that making New Years resolutions also follows this im The more resolutions you make at the beginning of the year the better results you will have2 He had read a number of books on self improvement before he made his resolutions He wrote out a long of resolutions He wanted to make a different man of himself a loving father and an ideal husband梑y trying to attend to everyones needse 3 Having written a long list of resolutions he longed to put them into practice thinking that they would be a great success4 Judging from the information given in the text he was a serious and strict father to the children He did not like to be bothered with questions He never treated them as his equals He showed no interest in their friends nor in what they were doing Having a quick temper he got excited easilyand often yelled at them He did not allow any mischievous behaviour to go on at home He was one of those husbands who did not like to lift a finger to help his wife and do household chores What he did in his free time was enjoy himself thoroughly He had a good time at parties and liked to stay out late even if this meant he had a headache the next day At home what he did most of the time was either watch a footfall match or read the newspaper5 He tried to be considerate and helpful but failed All his efforts to be a good busband went contrary to his expectations The whole family was thrown into disorder and confusion His wife was annoyed by his good manners and smart remarks thinking they were affected and that he was being sarcastio on purpose She attributed his cheerfulness good temper and thoughtfulness to not feeling his best after staying out late6 He wanted to do better but did not know how to do it appropriately On New Years Day he was in a particularly cheerful and good mood eager to render any service to his wife and children He did everything of his own accord He was considerate to his wife to the minutest detail and he graciously condescended to play jacks with Gretchen build a snowman for the boys and strike up a conversation with Kit But the result in every case proved to be just the opposite to what he had expected The writer behaved like a changed man What he did was suddenly totally different from what he used to do so his family was unprepared for this change Thats why to them his behaviour was too good to be truehis temper was too good to be believed and his thoughtfulness was too great to be natural7 It meansThe whole family are happy to see that your have come tobe your usual self again and you are behaving naturally At last everything will go back to normalB Reference version1 Quite obviously anyone who was determined to be guided by the rules of self improvement I collected would be happy and have a richer life infinite affection from his family and the love and respect of the community2 Show your love readily and willingly3 Whole hearted and genuine praise is really valuable4 Join your children and treat them as your equals5 I heard screams down the hall one after another and I found Gretchen crying6 The most unimportant light task may turn out to be worthwhile if it is dealt with eagerly and with interest7 I started to have a conversation with Kit in a friendly way and tried my best to achieve close agreement and understanding between us8 You never troubled yourself to chat with people in the past Why do you want to start doing it nowTEXT ⅡComprehension1 F He knew this beforehand but he had to go there because he felt the bank was the only place to keep his money safely2 T3 F The manager said Good morning not to Mr Montgomery but to the writer Good morning in this case is not a greeting but a farewell meaningGood bye4 F The clerks were at first astonished and then amused5 F He was never very rich All he saved were some silver dollars ina sockK 13TEXT ⅢComprehension1 C2 B3 A4 C5 AGUIDED WRITINGSentence CombinationReference versionIt is much less common for people to carry cash in the West than it is for people to carry cash in China Often it is not safe to have large amounts of cash on hand in the WestMost people use cheques or credit cards to avoid carrying cash with them Cheques are commonly used to pay rent for utilities and telephone bills and can also be used to make purchases while credit cards are mainly used to make purchasesCredit cards are pieces of plastic usually 55cm by 85cm They are issued by banks and stores that want people to spend more money When purchasing something the buyer will give his credit card to the seller The seller will check the information on the card and record it accept the card instead of accepting money The seller will give the buyer a receipt and another receipt goes to the bank The bank will then send a bill to the buyer usually after 30 daysCOMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ Spelling1 downstairs2 spontaneous3 creativity4 jovially5 wander6 shriek7 chore8 poisonous9 relieve10 interruption11 reckless12 wretchedⅡ DictationThe United States is becoming more and more a cashless society People are making purchases by cheque charge accounts or credit cards rather than carrying large amounts of money in their pockets or purses Normally people pay by cheque at the end of each month at department stores and some food markets and drugstores They also pay monthly by cheque for rent telephone calls electricity milk newspaper deliveries and similar household expenses Mary have charge cards to pay for petrol and service station expenses and credit cards for restaurant hotel and travel costsMany other people however prefer to pay as they go and not accumulate monthly bills Most people work out a combination paying some bills in cash and charging others This is a matter of personal choice But if you have charge accounts be sure to pay promptly the interest charged for late payments can be highK 14Ⅲ Listening ComprehensionA Income ￡2000 a yearExpensesHousing ￡50 a month for mortgageFood ￡60 a monthCar a large repair bill every now and thenElectricity ￡16 a yearGas ￡70 a yearBooks B The man on the doorstep he is doing a survey for the Department of Health and Social Security He is actually a salesman trying to sell The New World Childrens EncyclopaediaⅣ TranslationA 1 Every time he returned home from work at midnight he would tiptoe upstairs trying not to disturb his neighbours2 To establish some kind of rapport with his new

such as water pollution noise pollution and visual pollution4 If it had not been for the constant encouragement and help from her friends she couldnt have accomplished anything5 It was only a few days ago that he was full of contempt for the new project but he is now working hard with zest for its realization What a baffling change6 Judging from what she wrote in her autobiography she always had mixed feelings for that pianist7 While waiting in the lounge for the flight he struck up a conversation with two American travellers and touched on many interesting cross cultural issues8 These girls all dread working alone on night duty9 I dont mind working overtime What I do mind is working on those insignificant trivial things during the weekend10 Actually nobody asked them to do anything on the first day of school When they saw the classroom in such a mess however they cleaned it spontaneouslyB Reference versionK 15Joe had dodged the police many times but never like this He was afraid He was sprawled on the rooflistening for sounds Somewhere below people were yelling and shrieking but he was not concerned about the commotion He looked round searching for any sign of a policeman When he heard some footsteps on the corrugated iron roof he was seized with fear What made them chase after me he thought I havent done anything You shouldnt have sneaked up here he said to himselfThen he saw the shape of a policeman approaching He did not want to give up He still wanted to make an effort to escape He rose to his feet quietly and tiptoed over to the far end of the roof thinking that he could perhaps slide down the drainpipe Just at that moment the policeman strode forward and was about to grab the boy by the collar when unaware of a clothesline in his way which caught his cap he almost stumbled Joe was startled but he could go back no further The policeman steadied himself and reached out for the boyⅤ． Blank FillingA 1 down 2 for 3 down down4 after5 back6 on7 in8 off9 out10

2TEXT ⅠComprehensionAnswers for referenceA 1 English has now become one of the most widely used languages in the world In 1500 English was an insignificant language spoken by the people living on a small island Now it is spoken as the first language by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second language by many millions more When people speak English we may be able to tell which English it isAmerican English Australian English British English Indian English and so on Besides for different purposes we use different Englishes everyday English business English commercial English diplomatic English medical English scientific English technical English legal English journalistic English and so on We also use different degrees of formality and can differentiate between formal English informal English and colloquial English2 Style expresses the writers individuality through his choice of words and sentence patterns and his selection and arrangement of material Style frequently reflects the writers personality mood attitudes education and general background There are different kinds of styles homely coarse refined ironic vulgar plain childlike formal informal wordy colloquial direct grandiloquent and so on We choose words to suit the audience the occasion the topic and the genre eg short story essay argumentation Certain words exact and concrete as they are are excluded from formal use because they are not appropriate for formal occasions It would be absurd if slang terms or vulgarisms were used to address an audience at commencement or the other way round if a very formal style long sentences and complex grammatical structures were used in a friendly letter Yet if we have some idea of different styles but dont know whento use which this knowledge is worse than useless3 This is an example of a very formal expression alongside a colloquialism Bags of fun is a slang term whereas extremely gracious is very formal languageHere is another example of the same kind to show the inappropriateness of a formal style mixed with colloquialism In a letter of application you begin thusDear SirsI am writing to you in the hope that you still have a vacant place in your department If you hve not yet employed anyone I should like my application for the position to be consideredAnd you conclude withAs to my character and fitness for the job please rest assured that I am sure smart In this last sentence job may be rather too informal employment or post would be more suitable Smart is a colloquialism that means 搈entally alert quickf witted and talented Moreover the sentence I am sure smart is very informal and colloquial and so it is inappropriate for the letter4 Good use of English requires the appropriate choice of words for the expression of thoughts To be in good use of English therefore a word must be used appropriately in a specific set of circumstances K 225 Coy means shy diffident bashful What the writer means here isDo away with your shyness Decide what you want to say and say it as directly as possible in plain words Stop deceiving people and beatingabout the bush Call a spade a spade6 Some examples of euphemisms1 a mental home ＝ an insane asylumslow ＝ dull in mindresidence ＝ housea reconditioned automobile ＝ a used carstout ＝fatThe above words and phrases in italics are supposed to be more pleasant substitutes for those in parentheses2 skin tonic ＝cold cream The term skin tonic may help the manufacturer to sell his products more easily3 Goodness me Goodness gracious Thank goodness For goodness sake It is supposed to be blasphemous to use the word God in ones speech so goodness is used instead of God4 Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry this is called transfer of population This is quoted from George Orwells Politics and the English Language Euphemism is used here to hide some brutal harsh stark political realities7 The writer means that in spite of the fact that he strongly objects to the use of euphemisms some euphemisms having considerable vigour and vitality can still be used as far as he is concerned8 It shows that the writer can foresee the inevitable fate of any euphemism ie that any effort to avoid unpleasantness will end in failure because a euphemism will quickly acquire the same negative connotationas the word it has replaced There is thus no sense in using euphemismsB Reference version1 The richer life experience we have and the more people from all walks of life we know we will develop more extensive and flexible knowledge of different English styles and the ability to use each style appropriately when the occasion arises2 If we do not know when to use each style appropriately or if we confuse one style with another inappropriately an unsystematic and casual knowledge of styles is of no use or even worse3 Neither bags of fun nor extremely gracious in its suitable context is a careless casual expression of ones ideas4 It would however also be absurd foolish to turn the judgment completely the other way roundK 235 Except in cases where they are used to achieve humorous effect contemporary writers think that euphemisms are too disgusting artificial and pretentious6 Supporing the argument made by using the outdated and stereotyped phrases that are often used by trade union leaders would be as easy as shooting birds that never fly away7 Some euphemisms are unusual enough to be funny They are so unusual that they become quite funny8 Some people may also like extreme understatementTEXT ⅡComprehension1 C2 C3 A4 B5 B6 CTEXT ⅢComprehension1 F The euphemistic term for dustmen in the US simply sounds more prosperous2 T3 F He is put in prison but the name for prison is adjustment centre4 F There are but the term poor people has been replaced by the euphemism the underprivileged5 F There are more euphemisms in English than in many other languagesGUIDED WRITINGSentence CombinationReference versionProverbs probably as old as our civilization form an important part of our heritage Children can learn basic lessons from them For example they may learn thrift by hearing a parent or grandparent say Waste not want not Young people tempted to be dishonest are often able to resist the temptation by recalling Honesty is the best policy Or persons faced with difficult tasks will be encouraged to persevere by keeping in mind that Little strokes fell great oaks And many tense situations are improved when one person or another remembers that A soft answer turns away wrath or that Two cannot quarrel if one wontK 24Proverbs are found in almost every language in the world whether the language is written or not In fact where the language has not been written proverbs are one of the principal ways the people pass down their philosophy of life from one generation to another thus preserving theirmost precious heritageCOMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ Spelling1 drift2 perspective3 significantly4 Danish5 ordinary6 variety7 desirable8 isolation9 nineteenth10 linguist11 negotiate12 satisfactoryⅡ DictationOne day over lunch in a Chinese restaurant I heard somebody say Take what youve got and never want more I called the Chinese Embassy and asked the young lady who answered exactly what that meant Did they really have such a proverb She replied that it was indeed an old Chinese proverb and similar in meaning to our A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush I told her I was so glad that we had something in common and thanked her It was then that I decided to find out if the rest of the world had this proverb in common with us I had no trouble in my quest as far as the Spanish Embassy was concerned When I asked for the Spanish version of A bird etc the bright but highly amused young woman came up immediately with Better to have one in hand than a hundred flyingⅢ Listening ComprehensionA 1 F Not everyone laughs at the same things What is funny to an Italian may not be funny to a Chinese2 F The American says that the Empire State Building was built in only two months in order to boast that things can be done incredibly fast in his country3 F He sometimes laughs when we make mistakes because we sound funny4 F A wise person laughs at himself or herself when he or she makesa mistake5 T6 TⅣ TranslationA 1 An unknown disease affected his brain so badly that he lost his memory completely2 The protesting crowds outside the courthouse had no effect at all on the judges and the jury of this Pacific island country3 A guilty man apprehends danger in every soundK 254 Her soft voice and gracious smile put everyone in the room at ease5 Not until you have a good command of a scale of styles can you speak English appropriately in different situations6 His haphazard knowledge of modern economics was one of the reasons why he failed in his business7 The new general manager did not feel very comfortable with the way he was addressed by his colleagues in the company8 No matter how hard he had tried his efforts to improve his image in the mind of the public proved to be ineffective9 It was the last thing that occurred to the commander that his soldiers would defy／disobey his orders10 Although the composition teacher considers these expressions nothing but cliches they appeal very much to the studentsB Reference versionWe should always bear in mind that in different circumstances we usethe English language in different ways This fact however is often forgotten When we think about language we too often think only of the more formal forms especially the written forms But we are not always reading and writing We use slang or at least colloquial forms with friends and acquaintances In certain social situations we use clichés that we would probably blush to write down We use polite speech when we speak to our elders or our superiors We use high sounding language on important occasions We tell jokes and make comments about things or people near or far We talk about ordinary things or of the secrets of the universe We express feelings to one person or to a group We choose slightly different forms of language for each of these purposes For a native speaker of English his choice is partly instinctive and partly based on an awareness of the kind of language that is expected of him A good command of English must include an acquaintance with all these registersⅤ Blank FillingA 1 a diedb deathc deadd deathlye deadlyf deathlikeg dying2 a judgeb judgmentc judges3 a approachingb

an opportunity for soul of her nephew to be saved she couldnt help feeling excited She was looking forward to the special meeting for children unable to hide her eagerness2 She told him that he could see and hear and feel Jesus in his soul when he was saved Jesus would come to him and the child would see a light and feel different inside Being a child of twelve he believed her and waited in great earnest for Jesus to come into his life3 The writer purposely describes the members of the congregation in detail the old black women wearing plaits and weather beaten old men weather beaten indicates their rich experience of life Since they believed in God and they said the same things about Jesus the child didnt think it could be untrue The writer is suggesting that the power of other people to make a person do what they believe is right is often irresistible4 1 It is first mentioned by the childs aunt in the second paragraph as an idea presented by his aunt in the process of trying to convince him of the importance of being saved2 In the fifth one sentence paragraph the child was waiting to seeJesus3 It is repeated in the seventh paragraph when the child was still waiting and longing to see Jesus4 It it repeated again in the eleventh paragraph this time as an indirect accusation of hypocrisy since Jesus didnt punish Westley for telling a lie5 The last time it is repeated is in the last paragraph when it ends up in Langstons self revelation of and regret over his dishonesty and it helps to express his distress about having been disillusioned5 He believed that many old people certainly knew better that God would come into his life He felt he had to wait patiently to see Jesus in spite of the heat the crowd and the earnest entreaties of some of the members of the congregation As he hadnt seen Jesus he didnt want to lie and say he had for he was basically an honest boy6 The lessons he learned were1 He couldnt resist the power to do what a great many people thought he should People old and young men and women all believed in the existence of almighty God he had to do what they expected of him and sit on the mourners bench to be saved and say Jesus had come2 If he didnt want to hold everything up and if he wanted to save further trouble he had better lie The proverb Honesty is the best policy he learned did not always apply3 Religion was not what he wanted He couldnt and wouldnt believe in his aunt and God any more since he had been deceived and forced to tell a lie7 He was saved from sin in an ironic sense He was compelled to commita sin ie to lie in order to be saved from sinB Reference version1 Every night for weeks the priests gave sermons and people sang songs in praise of God worshipped God and shouted for joy Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly2 The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation His speech was marvellously regular and melodious it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain grief and suffering loud and happy as well as lonely cries and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die3 The whole building shook with all the praying and singing4 All the people attending church service prayed only for me their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering5 The whole church became a sea of great joy6 When everything became quiet again during a respectful silence which was broken only by several people saying Amen extremely joyfully and happily all the children were given blessings by the minister in the name of GodTEXT ⅡComprehension1 F People were pleased because he was not only honest but alsoa good businessman2 F In fact they were greatly interested in others business Forexample George Williams and Clyde Ballards wife listened to others telephone calls on the party line3 F George also spoke ill of him For example he said Well I always said that Sam Billings was the biggest crook that ever lived in the town of Androscoggin4 F Florida was to the South of Androscoggin5 T6 F No one told him of the things that had been said against

Unit 1TEXT ⅠComprehensionAnswers for reference:A. 1. As the saying goes, “As you sow, so will you reap”, which means whatever a man sows he will reap. The writer intends to convince the reader that making New Year's resolutions also follows this maxim. The more resolutions you make at the beginning of the year, the better results you will have.2. He had read a number of books on self improvement before he made his resolutions. He wrote out a long list of resolutions. He wanted to make a different man of himself —a loving father and an ideal husband—by trying to attend to everyone's needs.3. Having written a long list of resolutions, he longed to put them into practice, thinking that they would be a great success.4. Judging from the information given in the text, he was a serious and strict father to the children. He did not like to be bothered with questions. He never treated them as his equals. He showed no interest in their friends nor in what they were doing. Having a quick temper, he got excited easily and often yelled at them. He did not allow any mischievous behaviour to go on at home. He was one of those husbands who did not like to lift a finger to help his wife and do household chores. What he did in his free time was enjoy himself thoroughly. He had a good time at parties and liked to stay out late even if this meant he had a headache the next day. At home, what he did most of the time was either watch a footfall match or read the newspaper.5. He tried to be considerate and helpful, but failed. All his efforts to be a good busband went contrary to his expectations. The whole family was thrown into disorder and confusion. His wife was annoyed by his good manners and smart remarks, thinking they were affected and that he was being sarcastio on purpose. She attributed his cheerfulness, good temper and thoughtfulness to not feeling his best after staying out late.6. He wanted to do better but did not know how to do it appropriately. On New Year's Day, he was in a particularly cheerful and good mood, eager to render any service to his wife and children. He did everything of his own accord. He was considerate to his wife to the minutest detail and he graciously condescended to play jacks with Gretchen, build a snowman for the boys and strike up a conversation with Kit. But the result in every case proved to be just the opposite to what he had expected. The writer behaved like a changed man. What he did was suddenly totally different from what he used to do, so his family was unprepared for this change. That's why, to them, his behaviour was too good to be true—his temper was too good to be believed, and his thoughtfulness was too great to be natural.7. It means:“The whole family are happy to see that your have come to be your usual self again and yo u are behaving naturally. At last everything will go back to normal.”B. Reference version:1. Quite obviously, anyone who was determined to be guided by the rules of self improvement I collected would be happy and have a richer life, infinite affection from his family and the love and respect of the community.2. Show your love readily and willingly.3. Whole hearted and genuine praise is really valuable.4. Join your children and treat them as your equals.5. I heard screams down the hall one after another and I found Gretchen crying.6. The most unimportant light task may turn out to be worthwhile if it is dealt with eagerly and with interest.7. I started to have a conversation with Kit in a friendly way and tried my best to achieve close agreement and understanding between us.8. You never troubled yourself to chat with people in the past. Why do you want to start doing it now?TEXT ⅡComprehension1. F (He knew this beforehand, but he had to go there because he felt the bank was the only place to keep his money safely.)2. T3.

Cheques are commonly used to pay rent, for utilities, and telephone bills and can also be used to make purchases while credit cards are mainly used to make purchases.Credit cards are pieces of plastic, usually 5.5cm. by 8.5cm. They are issued by banks and stores that want people to spend more money. When purchasing something, the buyer will give his credit card to the seller. The seller will check the information on the card and record it, accept the card instead of accepting money. The seller will give the buyer a receipt and another receipt goes to the bank. The bank will then send a bill to the buyer, usually after 30 days.COMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ.

DictationThe United States is becoming more and more a “cashless society”. People are making purc hases by cheque, charge accounts or credit cards, rather than carrying large amounts of money in their pockets or purses.Normally people pay by cheque at the end of each month at department stores and some food markets and drugstores. They also pay monthly by cheque for rent, telephone calls, electricity, milk, newspaper deliveries, and similar household expenses. Mary have charge cards to pay for petrol and service station expenses and credit cards for restaurant, hotel, and travel costs.Many other people, however, prefer to pay as they go and not accumulate monthly bills. Most people work out a combination, paying some bills in cash and charging others. This is a matter of personal choice. But if you have charge accounts, be sure to pay promptly; the interest charged for late payments can be high.K 14Ⅲ. Listening ComprehensionA.

Reference version:K 15Joe had dodged the police many times, but never like this. He was afraid. He was sprawled on the rooflistening for sounds. Somewhere below people were yelling and shrieking, but he was not concerned about the commotion. He looked round, searching for any sign of a policeman. When he heard some footsteps on the corrugated iron roof, he was seized with fear. What made them chase after me, he thought. I haven't done anything. You shouldn't have sneaked up here, he said to himself.Then he saw the shape of a policeman approaching. He did not want to give up. He still wanted to make an effort to escape. He rose to his feet quietly and tiptoed over to the far end of the roof, thinking that he could perhaps slide down the drainpipe. Just at that moment, the policeman strode forward and was about to grab the boy by the collar when, unaware of a clothesline in his way which caught his cap, he almost stumbled. Joe was startled, but he could go back no further. The policeman steadied himself and reached out for the boy.Ⅴ．Blank FillingA. 1. down 2. for 3. down, down4. after5. back6. on7. in8. off9. out10. for11. in, out12. out13. to14. over15. upB.

English has now become one of the most widely used languages in the world. In 1500, English was an insignificant language, spoken by the people living on a small island. Now it is spoken as the first language by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second language by many millions more. When people speak English, we may be able to tell which English it is—American English, Australian English, British English, Indian English and so on. Besides, for different purposes, we use different Englishes: everyday English, business English, commercial English, diplomatic English, medical English, scientific English, technical English, legal English, journalistic English and so on. We also use different degrees of formality and can differentiate between formal English, informal English, and colloquial English.2. Style expresses the writer's individuality through his choice of words and sentence patterns, and his selection and arrangement of material. Style frequently reflects the writer's personality, mood, attitudes, education, and general background. There are different kinds of styles: homely, coarse, refined, ironic, vulgar, plain, childlike, formal, informal, wordy, colloquial, direct, grandiloquent, and so on. We choose words to suit the audience, the occasion, the topic, and the genre (e.g., short story, essay, argumentation). Certain words, exact and concrete as they are, are excluded fromformal use, because they are not appropriate for formal occasions. It would be absurd if slang terms or vulgarisms were used to address an audience at commencement, or the other way round, if a very formal style, long sentences and complex grammatical structures were used in a friendly letter. Yet if we have some idea of different styles, but don't know when to use which, this knowledge is worse than useless.3. This is an example of a very formal expression alongside a colloquialism. Bags of fun is a slang term whereas extremely gracious is very formal language.Here is another example of the same kind to show the inappropriateness of a formal style mixed with colloquialism. In a letter of application, you begin thus:Dear Sirs,I am writing to you in the hope that you still have a vacant place in your department. If you hve not yet employed anyone, I should like my application for the position to be considered....And you conclude with:As to my character and fitness for the job, please rest assured that I am sure smart. In this last sentence, job may be rather too informal; employment or post would be more suitable. Smart is a colloquialism that means “mentally alert, quick witted, and t alented”. Moreover, the sentence I am sure smart is very informal and colloquial, and so it is inappropriate for the letter.4. Good use of English requires the appropriate choice of words for the expression of thoughts. To be in “good use of English”, therefore, a word must be used appropriately in a specific set of circumstances.K 225. Coy means “shy, diffident, bashful”. What the writer means here is:“Do away with your shyness. Decide what you want to say and say it as directly as possible in plain words. Stop deceiving people and beating about the bush. Call a spade a spade.”6. Some examples of euphemisms:1) a mental home (＝an insane asylum)slow (＝dull in mind)residence (＝house)a reconditioned automobile (＝a used car)stout (＝fat)The above words and phrases in italics are supposed to be more pleasant substitutes for those in parentheses.2) skin tonic (＝cold cream. The term skin tonic may help the manufacturer to sell his products more easily.)3) Goodness me！Goodness gracious！Thank goodness. For goodness' sake！(It is supposed to be blasphemous to use the word God in one's speech, so goodness is used instead of God.)4) “Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry: this is called transfer of population.” (This is quoted from George Orwell's “Politics and the English Language”. Euphemism is used here to hide some brutal, harsh, stark political realities.)7. The writer means that in spite of the fact that he strongly objects to the use of euphemisms, some euphemisms, having considerable vigour and vitality, can still be used as far as he is concerned.8. It shows that the writer can foresee the inevitable fate of any euphemism, i.e., that any effort toavoid unpleasantness will end in failure, because a euphemism will quickly acquire the same “negative connotation” as the word it has replaced. There is thus no sense in using euphemisms.B. Reference version:1. The richer life experience we have, and the more people from all walks of life we know, we will develop more extensive and flexible knowledge of different English styles and the ability to use each style appropriately when the occasion arises.2. If we do not know when to use each style appropriately, or if we confuse one style with another inappropriately, an unsystematic and casual knowledge of styles is of no use, or even worse.3. Neither “bags of fun” nor “extremely gracious” in its suitable context is a careless / casual expression of one's ideas.4. It would, however, also be absurd / foolish to turn the judgment completely the other way round.K 235. Except in cases where they are used to achieve humorous effect, contemporary writers think that euphemisms are too disgusting, artificial and pretentious.6. Supporing the argument made by using the outdated and stereotyped phrases that are often used by trade union leaders would be as easy as shooting birds that never fly away.7. Some euphemisms are unusual enough to be funny. They are so unusual that they become quite funny.8. Some people may also like extreme understatement.TEXT ⅡComprehension1. C2. C3. A4. B5. B6.

Children can learn basic lessons from them. For example, they may learn thrift by hearing a parent or grandparent say, “Waste not, want not.” Young people tempted to be dishonest are often able to resist the temptation by recalling “Honesty is the best policy”. Or persons faced with difficult tasks will be encouraged to persevere by keeping in mind that “Little strokes fell great oaks”. Andmany tense situations are improved when one person or another remembers that “A soft answer t urns away wrath”, or that “Two cannot quarrel if one won't”.K 24Proverbs are found in almost every language in the world, whether the language is written or not. In fact, where the language has not been written, proverbs are one of the principal ways the people pass down their philosophy of life from one generation to another, thus preserving their most precious heritage.COMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ.

Although the composition teacher considers these expressions nothing but cliches, they appeal very much to the students.B. Reference version:We should always bear in mind that in different circumstances we use the English language in different ways. This fact, however, is often forgotten. When we think about language, we too often think only of the more formal forms, especially the written forms. But we are not always reading and writing. We use slang, or at least colloquial forms, with friends and acquaintances. In certain social situations, we use clichés that we would probably blush to write down. We use polite speech when we speak to our elders or our superiors. We use high sounding language on important occasions. We tell jokes and make comments about things or people near or far. We talk about ordinary things or of the secrets of the universe. We express feelings to one person or to a group. We choose slightly different forms of language for each of these purposes. For a native speaker of English, his choice is partly instinctive and partly based on an awareness of the kind of language that is expected of him. A good command of English must include an acquaintance with all these “registers”.Ⅴ.

Now that there was an opportunity for the soul of her nephew to be saved, she couldn't help feeling excited. She was looking forward to the special meeting for children, unable to hide her eagerness.2She told him that he could see and hear and feel Jesus in his soul when he was saved. Jesus would come to him and the child would see a light and feel different inside. Being a child of twelve, he believed her and waited in great earnest for Jesus to come into his life.3The writer purposely describes the members of the congregation in detail —the old black women wearing plaits, and weather beaten old men; “weather beaten”indicates their rich experience of life. Since they believed in God and they said the same things about Jesus, the child didn't think it could be untrue. The writer is suggesting that the power of other people to make a person do what they believe is right is often irresistible.41) It is first mentioned by the child's aunt in the second paragraph, as an idea presented by his aunt in the process of trying to convince him of the importance of being saved.2) In the fifth one sentence paragraph the child was waiting to see Jesus.3) It is repeated in the seventh paragraph, when the child was still waiting and longing to see Jesus.4) It it repeated again in the eleventh paragraph, this time as an indirect accusation of hypocrisy, since Jesus didn't punish Westley for telling a lie.5) The last time it is repeated is in the last paragraph, when it ends up in Langston's self revelation of and regret over his dishonesty, and it helps to express his distress about having been disillusioned.5He believed that many old people certainly knew better —that God would come into his life. He felt he had to wait patiently to see Jesus in spite of the heat, the crowd, and the earnest entreaties of some of the members of the congregation. As he hadn't seen Jesus, he didn't want to lie and say he had, for he was basically an honest boy.6The lessons he learned were：1) He couldn't resist the power to do what a great many people thought he should. People, old and young, men and women, all believed in the existence of almighty God; he had to do what they expected of him and sit on the mourner's bench to be saved and say Jesus had come.2) If he didn't want to hold everything up, and if he wanted to save further trouble, he had better lie. The proverb “Honesty is the best policy”, he learned, did not always apply.3) Religion was not what he wanted. He couldn't and wouldn't believe in his aunt and God any more since he had been deceived and forced to tell a lie.7He was saved from sin in an ironic sense. He was compelled to commit a sin (ie, to lie) in order to be “saved from sin”.B Reference version：1Every night for weeks, the priests gave sermons, and people sang songs in praise of God, worshipped God and shouted for joy. Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly.2The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation. His speech was marvellously regular and melodious; it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain, grief and suffering, loud and happy as well as lonely cries, and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die.3The whole building shook with all the praying and singing.4All the people attending church service prayed only for me; their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering.5The whole church became a sea of great joy.6When everything became quiet again, during a respectful silence, which was broken only by several people saying “Amen”extremely joyfully and happily, all the children were given blessings by the minister in the name of God.TEXT ⅡComprehension1 F (People were pleased because he was not only honest but also a good businessman.)2 F (In fact, they were greatly interested in others' business.
