Unit 1 Cultural Differences文化差异In 1993, I had my first opportunity to visit Russia as a representative of the University of California. I was there to provide some technical assistance in the area of agricultural labor management. ―Russians are a very polite people,‖ I had been tutored before my arrival. One of my interpreters, once I was there, explained that a gentleman should pour the lemonade (a type of juice) for the ladies and show other courtesies to them.1993年,我作为加利福尼亚大学的代表，有了我的第一个访问俄罗斯的机会。
我在该地区的农业劳动管理区提供一些技术援助。
“俄罗斯人是很有教养的人,”我在来访之前就被这样教导过。
我一到那儿，我的一位翻译员就对我解释说,一作为一个绅士应该为女士们倒柠檬汁(一种果汁)并且向他们展示其它的礼貌礼仪。
Toward the end of my three-week trip I was invited by my young Russian host and friend Dmitri Ivanovich and his lovely wife Yielena out to dinner. At the end of a wonderful meal Yielena asked if I would like a banana. I politely declined and thanked her, and explained I was most satisfied with the meal. But the whole while my mind was racing: “What do I do? Do I offer her a banana even though they are as close to her as they are to me? What is the polite thing to do?”就在我这三周的旅行快要结束的时候，我被我的朋友，一位年轻的俄罗斯东道主，季米特里·伊万诺维奇和他美丽的妻子Yielena邀请去吃晚饭。

Unit 7 Literature (2)Lesson 19(E—C)East of Eden(1)By John SteinbeckThe Salinas Valley is in Northern California. It is a long narrow swale betwwen two ranges of mountains, and the Salinas River winds and twists up the center until it falls at last into Monterey Bay.I remember my childhood names for grasses and secret flowers. I remember where a toad may live and what time the irds awaken in the summer—and what trees and seasons smelled like—how people looked and walked and smelled even. The memory of odors is very rich.I remember that the Gabilan Mountains to the east of the valley were light gay mountains full of sun and loveliness and a kind of invitation, so that you wanted to climb into their warm foothills almost as you want to climb into the lap of a beloved mother. They were beckoning mountains with a brown grass love. The Santa Lucias stood up against the sky to the west and kept the valley from the open sea, and they were dark and brooding—unfriendly and dangerous. I always found in myself a dread of west and a love of east. Where I ever got such an idea I cannot say, unless it could be that the morning came over the peaks of the Gabilans and the night drifted back from the ridges of the Santa Lucias. It may be that the birth and death of the day had some part in my feeling about the two ranges of mountains.From both sides of the valley little streams slpipped out of the hill canyons and fell into the bed of the Salinas River. In the winte of wet years the streams ran full-freshet, and they swelled the river until sometimes it raged and boiled, bank full, and then it was a destroyer. The river tore the edges of the farm lands and washed whole acres down; it toppled barns and houses into itself, to go floating and bobbing away. It trapped cows and pigs and sheep and drowned them in its muddy brown water and carried them to the sea. Then when the late spring came, the river drew in from its edges and the sand banks appeared. And in the summer the river didn’t run at all above ground. Some pools would be left in the deep swirl places under a high bank. The tules and grasses grew back, and willows straightened up with the flood debris in their upper branches. The Salinas was only a part-time river. The summer sun drove it underground. It was not a fine river at all, but it was the only one we had and so we boasted about it—how dangerous it was in a wet winter and how dry it was in a dry summer. You can boast about anything if it’s all you have. Maybe the less you have, the more you are required to boast.(from John Steinbeck, East of Eden, Chapter1)译文：萨利内斯河谷位于加利福民亚州北部。

她对棒球的热情和她对球员的信赖使我回到了积极的态度。
Could you imagine a woman with a severe physical handicap running a website on her own and covering the Los Angles Dodgers as extensively as a professional sportswriter? I would never believe it if I had not seen her with my own eyes, curled up in a wheelchair, typing her comments by hitting the key with a pointer fastened to her head. I had driven a long way in hopes of uncovering an elaborate hoax, but watching her strain in the gloom of her shanty to add to her story, I knew I had found a true winner. Her enthusiasm for the game and her trust in the athletes brought me back to a positive attitude.Unit 5 中译英翻译1) 就能力而言,我肯定他能胜任这件工作。

It included a brief item abouta former classmate:"Kate L. teaches part-time at the University of Oklahoma and is assistant principal at County High School. In her spare time she is finishing her doctoral dissertation and the final drafts of two books, and she still has time for tennis and horse riding with her daughters." Four words in that description undid me: in her spare time.

Unit2 HistoryLesson 4 (E—C)Ngland Before the Idndustrial RevolutionThe contry was a place where men worked form dawn to dark, and the labourer lived not in thd sun, but in poverty and karkness. What aids there were to lighten labour were immemorial, like the mill, which was already ancient in Chaucer’s time. The Industrial Revolution began with such machines; the millwrights were the engineers of the coming age. James Brindley of Staffordshire started his self-made career in 1733 by working at mill wheels, at the age of seventeen, having been born poor in a illage.Brindley’s improvements were practical: to sharpen and step up the performance of the water wheel as a machine. It was the first multi-purpose machine for the new industries. Brindley worked, for example, to improve the grinding of flints, which were used in the rising pottery industry.Yet there was a bigger movement in the air by 1750. water had become the engineers’element, and men like Brindley were possessed by it. Water was gushing and fanning out all over the countryside. It was not simply a source of power, it was a new wave of movement. James brindley was a pioneer in the art of building canals or, as it was then called, ‘navigation’.Brindley had begun on his own account, out of interest, to survey the waterways that he travelled as he went about his engineering projects for mills and mines. The Duke of Bridgewater then got him to build a canal to carry coal from the Duke’s pits at Worsley to the rising town of Manchester…. Brindley went on to connect Manchester with Liverpool in an even bolder manner, and in all laid out almost four hundred miles of cannals in a network all over England.Two things are outstanding in the creation of the English system of canals, and they characterise all the Industrial Revolution. One is that the men who made the revolution were practical men. Like Brindley, they often had little education, and in fact school education as it then was could only dull an inventive mind. The grammar schools legally could only teach the classical subjects for which they had been founded. The universities also(there were only two, at Oxford and Cambridge) took little interest in modern or scientific studies; and they were closed to those who did not conform to the Church of England.The other outstanding feature is that the new invetions were for veryday use. The canals were arteries of communication: They were not made to carry pleasure boat, but barges. And the barges were not made to carry luxuries,but pots and pans and bales of cloth, boxes of ribbon, and all the common things that people buy by the pennyworth. These things had been manufactured in villages which were growing into towns now, away from London; it was a country-wide trade.(from J. Bronowski, The Ascent of Man)译文：工业革命前的英国在农村，人们从早到晚都得干活，劳动者并不是沐浴在阳光下，而是生活在贫困和黑暗中，那些帮助减轻劳动的机械都不知从哪个年代起就有了。

Text A读前问题：1．回忆并描述过去你父母是如何给你分配零花钱，你又是怎么花的。
2．家长给孩子零花钱的方式对于孩子的财务管理能力有什么影响？教会孩子明智地使用零花钱在校的孩子们需要零花钱买吃的、文具以及车票。
父母以不同的方式给孩子零花钱，有些家长在周一或者月初一次性给孩子零花钱，而有些家长则喜欢每天给零花钱。
一方面，家长给零花钱的方式会影响到孩子花钱或者攒钱的方式。
另一方面，孩子们花钱的．习惯也会影响到家长给零花钱的方式。
每天都给的零花钱有时候称为“饭钱”，下午学校有活动的话，孩子们通常会在课间休息或者午餐的时候用这钱买食物，这样他们学会了怎么花少量的钱。
数量有限，他们得控制花销。
有些家长选择这种方式给孩子零花钱，就是不想让孩子花太多钱，希望一段时间之后，能够放心把更多的零花钱交给孩子。
日结工资的家长由于经济紧张也许也会选择这种方式。
每天给零花钱的做法实际上是要求家长，而不是孩子养成谨慎花钱的习惯。
孩子知道第二天还能得到一笔钱，因而会花光每一分钱，暴食垃圾食品。
这样一来，孩子在花钱方面就会变得目光短浅了，可能会认为钱就是用来消费的。
有些孩子花钱入不敷出了，就从兄弟姐妹或者同学那里借钱花，放纵自己，之后又会借钱还债。
养成了这种借钱的习惯，他们就会依赖别人解决自己的种种问题，这样定量给零花钱的目的就彻底落空了。

Unit 7T ext AFamilies“Family”_ the word has different meanings f or different people, and even the di ctionary gives us sev eral definitions: “a group of people related by blood or marriage,’’“two adults and their children,’’“ all those people descended f rom a common ancestor,’’“ a household,’’ and so on. Some people think of a family as a mother, a father, and their children; others include grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. For some of us, family means the group of relatives living far away from home. For others, having a family simply means having children. Some f amilies have long histories, while others know very little about their ancestors. No matter if it is young or old, large or small, traditional or modern, every f amily has a sense of what a f amily is. It is that f eeling of belonging, of love and security that comes f rom living together, helping and sharing.There are basically two types of families: nuclear families and extended f amilies. The nuclear family usually consists of two parents (mother and f ather) and thei r children. The mother and f ather f orm the nucleus, or cent er, of the nuclear family. The children stay in the nuclear f amily until they grow up and marry. Then they f orm new nuclear families.The extended f amily is very large. There are of t en many nuclear families in one extended f amily. An extended f amily includes children, parents, grand-parents, uncles, aunts, and cousins. The members of an extended f amily are related by blood (grandparents, parents, children, brothers, sisters, etc.) or by marriage (husbands, wives, mothers-in-law, etc.). They are all related, so the members of an extended f amily are called relatives.Traditionally, all the members of an extended family lived in the same area. However, with the change from an agricultural to an industrial society, many nuclear families moved away from the f amily home in order to f ind work. In industrial societies today, the members of most nuclear families live together, but most extended f amilies do not live together. Theref ore we can say that the nuclear family becomes more important than the extended f amily as the society industrializ es: In post-industrial societies like the United States, even the nuclear f amily is changing. The nuclear family is becoming smaller as parents want f ewer children, and the number of childless families is increasing. Traditionally, the f ather of a nucl ear family earned money f or the family while the mother cared for house and the children. Today, more than 50% of the nuclear f amilies in the United States are two-earner families_ both the f ather and the mother earn money f or the f amily_ and in a f ew families the mother earns the money while the f ather takes care of the house and the children. Many nuclear f amilies are also “splitting up’’ _ more and more parents are getting divorced.What will be the result of this “ splitting”of the nuclear f amily? Social scientists now talk of two new f amily f orms: the single parent f amily and the remarried f amil y. Almost 20% of all American f amilies are single parent f amilies, and in 85% of these f amilies the single parent is the mother.Most single parents f ind it very dif f i cult to take care of a f amily alone, so they soon marry again and f orm remarried f amilies. As social scientists study these two new f amily f orms, they will be able to tell us more about the f uture of the nuclear family in the post-industrial age. (565 words) (3) (23)T ext BThe Changing American FamilyThe f amily is important to people all over the world although the structure of the family is quite different from one count ry to another. In the United States, as in many countries in the world, the f amily is changing. A generation or two ago, the traditional f amily, in which the f ather was boss, was customary. Now the modern f amily, in which both the f ather and the mother are equal partners, is more common. Although there are several similarities between the traditional and the modern f amily, there are also some very important diff erences.The traditional f amily of yesterday and the modern f amily of today have several similarities. The traditional f amily was a nuclear f amily, and the modern f amily is, too. The role of the father in the traditional f amily was to provide f or his f amily. Similarly, the f ather in the modern family is expected to do so, also. The mother in the traditional family took care of the children’s physical and emotional needs just as the modern mother does.On the other hand, there are some great diff erences between the traditional f amily and the modern f amily. The f irst important dif ference is in the man’s role. The traditional husband was the head of the household, because he was the only one who worked outside the home. If the wi f e worked f or pay, then the husband was not considered to be a good provider. In many f amilies today, both husband and wif e work f or pay. Theref ore, they share the role of head of household. In addition, the traditional husband usually made the big decisions about spending money. However, the modern husband shares these decisions with his working wi fe. Also, the traditional husband did not help his wif e with the housework or m eal preparation. Dinner was ready when he cam e home. In contrast, the modern husband helps his working wife at home. He may do some of the household jobs, and it is not unusual f or him to cook.The second diff erence is in the woman’s role. In the traditional f amily, the woman may have worked f or pay during her f irst years of marriage. However, af ter she becam e pregnant, she would usually give up her job. Her primary role was to take care of her family and home. In contrast, in many f amilies today, the modern woman works outside the home even af ter she has children. She’s doing two jobs instead of one, so she is busier than the traditional mother was. The traditional wif e learned to live within her husband’s income. On the other hand, the modern wif e does not have to because the f amily has two incomes.The f inal difference is in the role of the children. In the traditional f amily, the children were taken care of by the mother because she did not work outside the home. However, today preschool children may go to a child care center or to a baby-sitter regularly because the mother works. The school-age children of a traditional f amily were more dependent. Their mother was there to help them to get ready f or school and to make their breakfast. In contrast, modern children are more independent. They have to get up early in the morning and get ready f or school. Their mother is busy getting ready f or work, so they may even have to make their own breakfast.In conclusion, the American family of today is diff erent f rom the f amily of f i f ty years ago. In the modern f amily, the roles of the f ather, mother, and children have changed as more and more women work outside the home. The next century may bring more important changes to the American f amily structure. In should be interesting to see.(614 words) (6)(17)。

1Rock music began in America in the late 1950‟s . It was not only a new musical form , but a forum for the American youth to express their ideas of the world and life . In this forum , the stars sang out the attitudes of the youth towards civil rights , war and peace ,the disaffection of their society , and a range of emotions between love and hate . Allin all , in this forum , the American youth redefined the beliefs and feelings of their society . The typical representatives of the early rock music were Elvis Presley , singer and poet Bob Dylan , the Bealtles , the rolling Stones and so on . They were the culture heroes whom the young people worshipped .2The American young people in 1960‟s were a generation of rebellion . They found that the affluent American society was filled with poverty , injustice and gypocrisy . They didn‟t trust the adult world that didn‟t belong to them and refused to take their beliefs and values . Many young people took active part in the struggle which protested against poverty , racial discrimination and Vietnam War . Some young people even tried to overthrow this world by armed revolution. Many other young took passive ways to show their disaffections . They took drugs , refused to take any responsibilities and lived a parasitic way of life . Or they escaped to the frontiers and lived a primitive way of life .3Mathilda had been ill for three days . Her mother had given her some medicine, but it did n‟t do any good . So they had to ask the doctor to come . There had been a number of cases of diphtheria in Mathilda‟s school and two of them had been dead . When the doctor arrived at Olson‟s home , he wanted to examine Mthilda‟s throat first . But no mat ter how he coaxed ,,She wouldn‟t open her mouth . So the doctor had to get the tongue depressor into her mouth . But Mathilda reduced it to splinters . In order to protect Mathilda herself and other children , the doctor had to make surewhether she had diphtheria or not , so that he could treat her in time . Letting Mathilda …s father hold her wrists he tried his best to open her mouth and found she really had diphtheria. This story made us can think such a question that something in life can‟t only depend on self willingness . Under some circumstances , certain force seems necessary .4The need for laws on euthanasia can‟t be dodged for much longer . Euthanasia is a taboo in most countries . In these countries doctors can only practise it secretly . But it is openly practiced in some countries , such as Holland . Right now more and more countries are going over the arguments about legalizing euthanasia .When a patient suffers from illness for a long time and there is no hope of curing it , why do we l et him polong the throes ?Why can‟t we practise euthanasia to stop the throes ?But if we legalize euthanasia , there will be a danger Someone may use it for killing . All in all , euthanasia is question we can‟t dodge .5The American women made great c ontributions to the nation‟s development , but they received different forms of prejudices because of their sex . In politics , they did all the tedious details that made the differene between victory and defeat on election day and seldom had the chance to reach a better position , while the men reaped the rewards . In economy , most women did the lower-paying and dead –end jobs and they were paid less than the men for the same job . Many American people didn‟t admit it was prejudice against women . They said it was only a different division of labour in society . Even many women were content with their roles as second-class citizens . So the author said it was a long painful struggle for the women to get real equality .6When I knew Magpie got a scholarship of a California University and could go to the Fine Arts School to study , I was very pleased for him . I knew he wanted to become a poet all the time. I also knew he had a good talent . It was a very good chance for him . So I went back to Crow Creek to tell him about the good news and let him fill out some papers . But I didn‟t find him at his home . His wife said they had not been together for a while and only heard he was in Chamberlain . Then I went for Salina and asked her to help me find Magpie . Salina said Magpie had changed a lot since he was taken into prison . She thought he was not interested in going to the university of white people . But I said Magpie had a right to know this news and make the decision whether to go or not by himself . She agreed and took me to his good friend , Elgie . But when I could really see Magpie at last , he had been shot by the police .7Miss Brill was an English who lived in a coastal city in France . She was old and poor . She would go to the park on every Sunday afternoon . She always sat on the same bench , listening people around her talk , or watching other people‟s lives in front of her . She suddenly had a feeling on that Sunday afternoon . She felt the life was like a play and she was one part of the community . She had a part in the performance . At this time , the feeling of loneliness began to escape her .But just at this time she heard a couple of young people talk about her with contempt . Even the young man asked her to leave in a low voice . The short feeling of happiness disappeared . she went home with a broken heart .8Man created language . It was man‟s way of communicating with his fellow man . The difference between oral and written language was that oral language could take the human voice to infuse it with the shades of deeper meaning . Flowers was nearly singing when she read A Tale ofTwo Cities . It sounded beautiful . Her reading made me realize the wonder of language. Mrs. Flowers gave me novels and poems . I learned value of life from these books and realized how beautiful the language of literature works was .Man created language . It was man‟s way of communicating with his fellow man .

So in order to capture the viewer‟s attention , television must provide constant stimulation through variety , novelty , action and movement . The result of doing so is that news is too brief and results in inefficient communication . Many news programs are like “ machine –gunning with scraps “and figh t coherence of mind.The appeal to the short attention span will decivilize as well. To avoid complexity means to give up thinking . The “ functionally illiterates “ among adult Americans are continually increasing . They even do not know how to answer the want ad. Or understand the instructions on a medicine bottle . At least television should be responsible for part of it .10One night , two German military officers were murdered by Frenchmen . The next day , a German officer declared to thirty French prisoners , “ My order is that one man in every ten shall be selected and shot tomorrow . That is to say , three of you thirty people will die tomorrow . We are indifferent as to which three . You can choose for yourselves .”The prisoners had a heated discussion about who should die. Someone said the old people should go first . This was the way of nature . Some people said the unmarried should go first because they had no responsibilities . At last , all consented to drawinglots to decide which three went to die . A rich lawyer unfortunately got the death draw . He said , “ I …ll give a hundred thousand francs to anyone who will die for me . “11Some people will fall asleep as soon as their heads touch the pillows . Some people can‟t go to sleep although they have been lying in bed several hours . The more he wants to go to sleep , the more wakeful he is . I belong to the latter . When I write an essay , I feel an overpowering desire for sleep . But when I go to bed , I can do anything but sleep . I can compose grand symphonies , paint magnificent pictures and write good essays . The artificial ways of inducing sleep are legion , but they are of no avail . When I can‟t go to sleep at night , I imagine a dialogue with a friend till I either laugh or fall asleep . I find this is a good way to go to sleep .12As a very small child , I made up my mind to become a writer in future . When I become a writer , what I have most wanted to do is to make political writing into a work of art . The opinion that art should have nothing to do with politics is wrong . Writing is exposing lies , protecting truth and also an aesthetic experience . Animal Farm was the book in which I tried to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole . Writing should serve the society and the public . This is the principle I must follow . I f a writer lacks political purpose , he will only write some purple passages , even some humbug .13The first thing Russell thinks is the most ordinary function of work , namely the relief o ftedium. He thinks even the dullest work is less painful than idleness to most people . Then he talks about how the work can provide the people with opportunities for their ambitions. Man, as a member of the society , hopes that he can procure more and more social achievements . He pointsout that most women are so unfortunate that they can not work outside their homes . They are deprived of this chance .It seems that different kinds of work give people satisfaction to different degrees . Russell studies the concerning two chief elements , that is the exercise of skill and construction .When he analyzes the latter , Russell finds an opportunity to express his profound hatred to the war and social violence .14John F. Kerry was a discharged veteran from Vietnam War and took part in the investigation held in Detroit in December in 1970 . He thought the purpose for the veterans to attend the investigation was not only to confess their war crimes in order to purge their souls . It was not the individual but the American government that should have been responsible for the war crimes . He hoped to arouse the sense of responsibility of American people by this text . He criticized that the mass of people in America lit erally didn‟t give a damn and pointed out that the policy of the American government was hypocritical. He revealed the veterans‟ miserable conditions after they came back : racial discrimination ,drug taking , unemployment , no good medical care , etc. In the end he told the readers that members of Vietnam Veterans Against the War would march on Washington to the Capitol . Their most important demand was that the government set a date for withdrawl of troops from Vietnam, otherwise , they would camp and sta y there and won‟t move .15The author first pointed out that American and European women expended a large sum of money on cosmetics in order to make them look younger and more beautiful . Unlike the people of 19th century , they didn‟t think that only women who were not virtuous could use cosmetics . But the author worried that women only paid attention to their appearances and ignored the necessity to overcome the ugliness of theirhearts . He thought the people would be really beautiful only when the human beings had an opportunity to live harmoniously . But the author did not think the objective could be realized .16The three interviewers hid the truth of the firm to McDeere and only told him that the firm mainly did tax work . The clients of the firm were all big corporations , banks and wealthy people . Although the firm was not large in size and only consisted of forty –one lawyers , the salaries an all other benefits of the members were incredibly high . For the first year , McDeere could receive a base salary of eighty thousand dollars , plus bonuses , a low –interest mortgage and a luxurious car . If he worked hard , he would become a partner in ten years . If he put in ten more years , he could be a millionaire .All these were very appealing to Mcdeere . He agreed to accept this job without hesitation . But he could not imagine that he mistakenly went into a lawyer firm which was controlled by a black organization and specialized in illegal activities .1It‟s not easy to work in a big comp any . There is strict hierarchy in the company , and if you hope to be successful and get promotion , you have to obey directions and disciplines in addition to bear heavy pressure of work and work hard . Every day you are under rigid supervision and live in panic . If what you do is a job which will not provide you any chance to get promotion and for some reasons you have no way to find another job , you will be bored with it and feel dull . You will be in despair , lose ambition and working motivation , and finally become a mediocre .2Eveline agreed to marry Frank –an Irish sailor who lived in Buenos Ayres . They got to know each other when Frank just came back Dublin to spend his holidays . They would go to Buenos Ayres by boat that night . The boat was going to leave in a few hours , but she was still in doubtwhether it was wise or not to go to such a distant country with Frank . Although she didn‟t like the job in the store , and her father didn‟t treat her well , it was the only life that she was f amiliar with , after all . Besides , Eveline had promised to her mother that she would keep the home together as long as she could before her mother died . But the vision of the miserable life of her mother made her feel horrible . She would live a happy life with Frank .But she changed her mind before boarding the boat . The boat left with Frank . Everybody dreamed of happy life , but one must have courage to realize his dream .3Television has much more advantages than newspapers . When watching TV, we use our eyes as well as ears ; we can see the words and picture on the screen , and listen to the language and music as well . TV news broadcasting is quicker than that of newspapers . But television lives on commercial advertising to an even greater extent than newspapers . Profits drive television to cater to the lowest instinct of man . There are violence and sex in entertainment programmes of American television . Very often , television coverage of news is superficial and inadequate .There are a lot of problems in American newspapers too . the most prominent problem is that newspapers distort fact , and attack the countries ,people and the social systems which Americans do not like .4The life circle includes birth , being old , and death . Death is an unavoidable end for everybody . Aging is the neglected period of human life circle . Death happens within a few seconds while aging is a long period which means illness , poverty , and loneliness advertisements and travel folders show relaxed , happy , well-dressed older people enjoying recreation,travel and their grandchildren . But all these can not be enjoyed by the poor elder . They have to struggle to survive in old age . Many old people struggle to exist in an inhospitable world . There are more and more old people in the world now , and the government of every country is beginning to pay attention to the problems of old people .5Mrs . Wright was a town girl before she married John Wright and lived in his farm . She used to be a lively girl who liked singing . But during the thirty years living together with Wright , she totally changed . Wright was miserly and never paid attention to his wife‟s needs . There was no joy in their house , and even the neighbours were reluctant to call at their house . One winter morning , Mr. Hale , their neighbour , found that Wright was strangled on his bed .Mrs Wright said that shedidn‟t know who killed her husband . Her behaviour was very queer . She didn‟t call the police , but just sat in the rocker rocking back and forth in the kitchen . The policemen arrested her . Next morning , county sheriff and county attorney took Hale back to the farm to investigate who had killed Wright .6The county sheriff and county attorney couldn‟t find out any sign of anyone having come from the outside , and they were sure that Wright had been killed by his wife . In order to make juries believe the story , they had to find out Mrs . Wright‟s motive for killing her husband , but they failed . While they were busy investigating ,the two women sitting in the kitchen found a dead canary which was wrapped up in a piece of silk lying in a box . The canary had been wrung to death . The two women could imagine what kind of life Mrs . Wright had spent while living with Wright in this house . They didn‟t want the box containing the dead canary to be seen by sheriff and county attorney . In order to protect Mrs . Wright , they hid the box .7Ace was in a plight . He lost the job and was afraid to see his wife .Evey had to work as a saleswoman because Ace could not earn enough money to support the family . She was always very tired after working a whole day . She always had no time to cook dinner . now he was sacked , so he was worried that Evey would be ma d . Ace …s mother took care of their daughter Bonnie for them . Evey always took Bonnie back , but Ace went to take Bonnie that day . Ace‟s mother was glad that Ace lost the job , for she thought Ace should have a better job . Evey was not very angry with Ace this time , but did Ace get rid of the plight ?8Why are so many people overweight in the United States ? Most people may say that there are two reasons . One is that American food is tasty ; the other is that they take few exercises . But the author doesn‟t think this way . He proposes such a hypothesis that people eat in order to satisfy the sense of taste . When food has the flavor of library paste , people need to eat more so as to satisfy the frustrated taste buds . “ Science “ causes the blandne ss of American food which is the real reason why obesity has become a national curse . We should not be very serious about the author‟s strange opinion which is merely a way that the author used to satirize the American food .9I was born , grew up and finished high school in Watts , so I have deep feelings to Watts . I decided to make a career in Watts because it was supposed to be impossible . At that time , many young blacks left Watts in droves . They thought they could make a career only outside the ghetto .I also left Watts and went to study in Oxford University and Yale University . The riots in ghetto in 1960s showed the ever increasing militancy of the blacks . The riots were the most significant massive action taken by Northern Negroes . It was a watershed in the ghetto‟s history . The deepest impact of the riots was on the people of Watts . I will never escape from the ghetto . I have staked my all on its future . Watts is my home .10Customers have different values about products and services . Some customers demand low prices with the least inconvenience . Some customers don‟t care much about the prices , but they demand that the products should represent the hottest style and technology on the market . Other customers demand that products and services should meet their specific needs . Thus , if a company hopes to become the market leader and keep its edge , it must focus on one dimension and create a breakthrough to reach new heights of performance according to its own situation . It can win through cost or with great products or through customer intimacy .11Human beings have four major desires ; acquisitiveness , rivalry , vanity and love of power . Acquisitiveness is the wish to possess as much as possible of goods . Satiety is a dream which will always elude you . Acquisitiveness is the mainspring of the capitalist system , but rivalry is a much stronger motive than acquisitiveness . Vanity is a motive of immense potency . It is scarcely possible to exggerate the influence of vanity throughout the range of human life . But love of power is a motive which overweighs vanity . love of power is insatiable . Love of power is by far the strongest motive in the lives of important men . love of power is greatly increased by the experience of power .12Jerry ----Marian‟s son -----had to join the army and was sent to Vietnam to fight a losing battle shortly after he spent twenty –year –old birthday . Later , he was captured in one battle and was sent to a prison –compound . Young Jerry couldn‟t stand such a heavy blow and broke down . the handsome young man changed into another person . He was expressionless with a dull look in his eyes . His face muscles were jerking . He looked like an idiot . Marian‟s heart broke when she saw her idiot son in the newsreel . What made her relieved was the fact that her son was still alive and she would wait for her son patiently .13Huxley states in the article that most people are snobs about something . He says that some people even feel that they are important just because of having certain diseases . But so far I have never met any disease –snobs . In china , during the Culture Revolution , the snobbery of family and the snobbery of ignorance and stupidity were most popular . Twenty years later , modernity –snobbery is making headway today . our media encourage modernity –snobbery desperately . TV advertisements urge people to buy new goods . In addition , they make you feel that you are shameful if you don‟t have the most fashionable goods . For u p-to-dateness means that you are wealthy , and wealth is a symbol of strong capability . Only a man knowing his own mind can resist the flood of propaganda .14Arthur likes to go fishing along the canal on Sunday mornings . After six days‟ tiring labor work , he wants to leave the factory , leave the city as soon as possible to go to the tranquil countrysideand sit by the canal , fishing . He thinks it is a best way to relax himself and a best way to forget all the troubles . The factory is dirty stinking and ugly and people do not want to stay there for one more minute . The countryside has a picturesque view : fresh air , enchanting spring scene , green grass and trees , fragrant earth . The factory is hell while the countryside is heaven .15Most people believe that American education is of the highest quality in the world , but the author has his unique opinion . He thinks that there are serious problems in American education . The low quality of American education can not be faulted on the low teaching level . Teachers are working hard , but the problem is that they are teaching so rigidly that they work rigidly from the approved rigidly programmed primers . They are afraid of losing the job . They can‟t cultivate rare genius in this way . Another serious problem in american education is that children are not taught how to respect and inherit cultural heritage of human beings . What the author states here is the situation of primary education . Are the secondary education and higher education in the same situation .?16Jerry was tired of swimming and sunbathing . He wanted to swim down to the bottom of the sea to see what it was like there and play with other boys . But he felt he should not leave his widowed mother alone . His mother was also considerate of him . she hoped Jerry to stay on the safe beach with her care at his side . But she was afraid that her son felt that she tried to keep him close and she was possessive . Her son was eleven years old . She should give him freedom , and let him go wherever he likes to go . He could take care of himself without her . When Jerry swam far , he kept looking back to see whether his mother was still on the beach .。

Unit 4 EconomyLesson 10 (E—C)A Golbal EconmyRsident Clinton realized—as all of us must—that today’s economy is global. We live in an era in which information, goods and capital sped around the globe, every hour of every day. Whther we like it or not, all of our fortunes are tied together. We are truly interdependent.America supports international trade because we believe fundamentally that trade will enrich those nations who embrace its discipline. The great promise of trade is its potential to promote mutual prosperity—and to strengthen the bonds between sovereign nations.The U.S. and China both demonstrate the potential of trade to improve the lives of our people. Y ou know better than I the great achievements of the Chinese economy over the past two decades. In 1977, the sum total of Chinese imports and exports was less than $15 billion, putting China’s share of world trade at 0.6 percent. The most populosus country in the world, China ranked a distant 30th among exporting nations. By 1993 China’s exports and imports totaled nearly $200 billion. China had become the world’s tenth largest exporter.Since 1978, when China began opening its econnomy to imcreased foreign investment and trade, aggregate outpou has more than doubled. The strongest growth has occurred in the coastal areas near Hong Kong and opposite Taiwan, where foreign investment and modern production methoods have spurred productin of both domestic and export goods. Per capita GNP has grown at an average rate of 7.6% from 1980-1992.The numbers are interesting, but how has this affected the people of China? In the last decade, telephone connections rose more than 60%. Electrical production more than doubled to 621 million kilowatt hours. In short, China has improved the economic well-being of its people.The people of the United States also have experienced the benefits of world trade. Since World War II, the U.S. has been the world’s largest econnomy and, in most years, the world’s largest eporter.But the importance of trade in our economy had exploded in the past three decades. In 1970, the value of two way trade was equal to just 13% of the U.S. economy. Last year, that figure, at 28%, was more than twice as high. In just the last seven years, jobs supported bu U.S. exports (goods and services) have risen by 4 million, to a total of 11 million. That’s almost one out of ten American jobs. Last year U.S. trade equalled $1.8 trillion dollars.Nor is the importance of trade likely to diminish for either China or the United States. China will continue to depend upon lucrative export markets to earn the foreign exchange it needs to develop and grow. At the same time, China’s imports will supply the much needed machinery and technology to fuel its continued development.For the United States, new commercial opportunities will grow most rapidly in the emerging markets. We estimate that three quarters of new eport opportunities over the next twenty years that’s an incredible $1.9 trillion in potential exports—will come in the emerging markets of Asia and Latin America. This means jobs for American workers and a higher standard of living for the American people.(Ecerpted form “Remarks by Ambassador Kantor at the University of International Business and Economics”, 1995)译文：一个全球性的经济正如每个人必须认识到的那样，克林顿总统认识到当今的经济具有全球性质。

Procedures Section. The second major section of the research report details, with as much data as possible, exactly how the study was carried out. This section includes description of any necessary equipment, how the subjects were selected if subjects were used, what statistical technique was used to evaluate the significance of the findings, how many observations were made and when, etc. An investigation of the relative effectiveness of various swim-strokes would have to detail the number of swimmers tested, the nature of the tests conducted, the experience of the swimmers, the weather conditions at the time of the test, and any other factors that contributed to the overall experiment. The goal of the procedures section is to allow the reader to duplicate the experiment if such were desired to confirm, or refute, your findings.

Unit 6 Literature(1)Lesson 16(E—C)Tess of the D’Urbervilles(1)By Thomas HardyOn an evening in the latter part of May a middle-aged man was walking homeward from Shaston to the village of Marlott, in the adjoinning Vale of Blakemore or Blackmoor. The pair of legs that carried him were rickety, and there was a bias in his gait which inclined him somewhat to the left of a straight line. He occasinally gave a smart nod, as if in confirmation of some opinion, though he was not thinking of anything in particular. An empty egg-basket was slung upon his arm, the nap of his hat was reffled, a patch being quite worn away at its brim where his thumb came in taking it off. Presently hi was met by an elderly parson astride on a gray mare, who, as he rode, hummed a wandering tune.‘Good night t’ee,’ said the man with the basket.‘Good night, Sir John,’ said the parson.The pedestrian, after another pace or two, halted, and turned round.‘Now, sir, begging your pardon; we met last market-day on this road about this time, and I zaid “Good night,” and you made reply “Good night, Sir John,” as now.’‘I did,’ said the parson.‘And once before that—near a month ago.’‘I may have.’‘Then what might your meaning be in calling me “Sir John” these different times, when I be plain Jack Durbeyfield, the haggler?The parson rode a step or two nearr.‘It was only my whim,’he said; and, after a moment’s hesitation: ‘It was on account of a discovery I made some little time ago, whilst I was hunting up pedigres for the new county history.I am Parson Tringham, the antiquary, of Stagfoot Lane. Don’t you reaally know, Durbeyfield, that you are the lineal representative of the ancient and knightly family of the d’Urbervilles, who dervie their descent from Sir Pagan d’Urberville, that renowned knight who came from Normandy with William the Conqueror, as appears by Battle Abbey Roll?’‘Never heard it before, sir!’‘Well it’s true.’…‘But you’ll turn back and have a quart of beer wi’me on the strength o’t Pa’son Tringham? There’s a very pretty brew in tap at The Pure Drop—though, to be sure, not so good as at Rolliver’s.’‘No, thank you—not this evening, Durbeyfield. You’ve had enough already.’(from Thomas Hardy, Tess of the D’Urbervilles, Chapter 1)译文：五月后半月里，有一天傍晚，一个中年男子，正打沙氏屯，朝着跟这相连的那个布蕾谷（或者布莱谷）里面的马勒村往家里走去。
支着他的那两条腿老是摇摇晃晃的，他走路的姿势里，又总有一种倾斜的趋势，使他或多或少地往一条直线的左边歪。
待一会儿他就轻快地把头一点，好像是对某一个意见表示赞成似的，其实他心里头可并没想什么特别的事儿。
他胳膊上挎着一个空着的鸡蛋篮子，他头上那顶帽子的绒头都乱七八糟的，帽檐上摘帽子的时候大拇指接触的那个地方还磨掉了一大块。
他往前刚走了一会儿，就有一个要上年纪的牧师，跨着一匹灰色的骒马，一路信口哼着一个小调儿，迎着面儿走来。
“晚安，”挎篮子的人说。
“约翰爵士，晚安，”牧师说。
那个步行的男子又走了一两步，站住了脚，转过身来：“先生，对不起。
上次赶集的日子，咱们差不多也是这样儿在这条路上碰见的，那回俺对你说‘晚安’，你也跟刚才一样回答说‘约翰爵士，晚安’。
”“不错，是，”牧师说。
“在那一次以前，大概有一个月了，也有过这么一回。
”“也许。
”“俺分明是平平常常的杰克·德北，一个乡下小贩子，你可三番两次地老叫俺‘约翰爵士’，到底是什么意思？牧师拍马走近了一两步。
“那不过是我一时的高兴就是了，”他说；跟着迟疑了一会儿：“那是因为不久以前，我正考查各家的谱系预备编新郡志的时候，发现了一个事情，所以我才这么称呼你。
我是丝台夫路的崇干牧师兼博古家。
德北，你真不知道你就是那古老的武士世家德伯氏的嫡派子孙吗？德伯氏的始祖是那位有名气的武士裴根·德伯爵士，据‘纪功寺谱’上说，他是跟着胜利王维廉从诺曼底到英国来的。
”“从来没听说过，先生！”“这是真事。
”……“可是，崇干牧师，既是这样，那你回来跟俺去喝它一夸特啤酒，好不好？清酒店有开了桶的好酒，可是比起露力芬店里的，自然还差点儿。
”“谢谢你，不喝了，今儿晚上不喝了，德北。
我瞧你喝的已经不少了。
”Lesson 17(E—C)An American Tragedy(1)By Theodore DreiserTo-day, being driven by the necessity of doing something for himself, h entered the drug store which occupied the principal corner, facing 14th street at Baltimore, and finding a girl cashier in a small glas cage near the door, asked of her who was in charge of the soda fountain. Interested by his tentative and uncertain manner, as well as his deep and rather appealing eyes, and instinctively judging that he was looking for something to do, she observed: “why, Mr.Secor, there, the manager of the store.” She nodded in the direction of a short, meticulously dressed man of about thirty-five, who was arranging an especial display of toilet novelies on the top of a glass case. Clyde approached him, and being still very dubious as to how one went about getting anything in life, and finding him engrossed in what he was doing, stood first on one foot and then on the other, until at last, sensing some one was hovering about for something, the man turned: “Well?” he queried.“You don’t happen to ned a soda fountain helper, do you ?” Clyde cast at him a glance that sid as plain as anythng could, “If you have any such place, I wish you would please give it to me. I“No, no, no,”eplied this individual, who was blond and vigorous and by nature a little irritabl and contentious. He was about to turn away, but seeing a flicker of disappointment and depression pass over Clyde’s face, he turned and added, “Ever work in a place like this efore?”“No place as fine as this No, sir.”Replied Clyde, rather fancifully moved by all that was about him. “I’m working now down at Mr.Klinkle’s store at 7th and Brooklyn, but it isn’t anything like this one and I’d like to get something better if I could.”“Uh,” went on his interviewer, rather pleased by the innocent tribute to the superirity of his store. “Well, that’s reasonable enough. But there isn’t anything here right now that I could offer you. We don’t make many changes. But if you’d like to be a bellboy, I can tell you where you might get a place. They’re looking for an etra boy in the hotel inside there right now. The capptain of the boys was telling me he was in need of one. I should think that would be as good as helping about a soda fountain, any day.”Then seeing Clyde’s face suddenly brighten, he added: “But you mustn’t say that I sent you, because I don’t know you. Just ask for Mr. Squires inside there, under the stairs, and he can tell you all about it.”(from Theodore Drieser, An American Tragedy, Book 1, Chapter 4)译文：今天他因为急于要给自己想个办法，迫不得已，便走进了那家杂货店。
