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

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

Unit 3 Translation of the TextsMain Reading:化学计量学对食品安全的影响恰当应用信息技术会有奇效John R. Joyce 摘自《科学计算》食品安全，或者说是潜在缺乏安全，是我们时常关注的话题；各类媒体更是在这方面做足了文章。
不管是因为食品传播疾病的爆发还是因为类似三聚氰胺的化学污染，食品召回事件似乎没完没了。
然而，很多情况下，这种风险通常是被夸大了的，可能是因为评级，也可能是因为担心责任。
这并不是说接触到受污染食品不会对健康造成严重伤害，而是说为了把受污染食品撤出市场，召回范围通常是扩大了的。
这样做的原因可能有很多，但主要原因之一就是通常无法及时追踪到污染源而不能把未污染的类似产品在市场保留。
在食品安全中恰当应用实验信息技术能为极大改变这种现状，但也应该认识到这也不是能解决所有食品安全问题的金钥匙。
我们可以实验信息技术看成是一块多面的宝石，每个面代表不同的信息系统。
没有哪个单一方面比其他的方面重要。
但是，结合在一起，他们就能变成光芒四射的珠宝，引导我们一路解决这个问题。
尽管有人试图对这个系统进行分类，但所有分类都不是很严格的，因为它们大多有功能的重合。
尽管我们没有足够的空间对所有这些方面做深入的介绍，以下列出的是我们可能遇到的各类实验信息系统的非互斥的分类清单：•实验信息管理系统•分析自动化/色谱分析数据系统•科学数据管理系统•生产工艺控制•化学计量•跟踪系统•质量管理系统这些系统有的是为了生产高品质食品，有的为了分析食品样本并储存分析结果，有的为了利用这些结果来评估食品质量和安全。
然而，虽然每个系统都可以是独立的，但最佳效果还是这些系统相互结合在一起的。
我们最近检查了很多类似的数据系统，我们的讨论就仅限于化学计量。
根据国际纯化学与应用化学联盟的维基介绍，化学计量学是“是一门应用数学或统计学方法把对化学系统或工艺的测量数据与系统的状态相联系的科学，是多元实验设计与建模工具在化学领域的应用。

During the first half of the trip we talked about a wide variety of topics, ranging from the attempts of the Federal Reserve to steer the American economy to a comparison of the best California and French wines. The depth and breadth of the man's knowledge and insight was truly impressive. 最近，在一次穿越大陆的飞行中，我的同座是一位来自纽约的友好、善谈的国际商人。

一小步，重返我们的始发地阿波罗登月任务本应揭示月球的真相，但实际上却让我们更了解了地球和人类自身。
1969年7月，尼尔?阿姆斯特朗和巴兹?奥尔德林刚从月球返回。
人们给他俩播放了录像短片，上面记录了全世界对登月的反响。
他俩看到美国新闻主播沃尔特?克朗凯特在擦拭泪水；从中国到巴西，人们簇拥在电视机前；电视机专卖店外的人行道上也挤满了敬畏不已的观众。
奥尔德林转向阿姆斯特朗说：“尼尔，我们错过了整场好戏。
”这一评论揭示了阿波罗任务的一个惊人事实：它们不是关于月球，而是关于地球。
当阿波罗八号的成员成为第一批飞离地球的人，关于任务背后的思考就开始了。
当他们在1968年平安夜围绕月球飞行时，他们真正好奇的不是飞船下方的死寂晦暗的月球，而是远方那个鲜活蔚蓝的地球。
这三个人，是第一批近距离俯瞰月球的地球人，他们心里油然而生一股崇敬之情，因为他们是第一批从浩瀚穹宇眺望地球的宇航员。
目睹地球从月平线上升起，他们觉得自己很渺小。
他们向全世界亿万听众诵读《圣经?创世纪》的开篇，结束时问候大家：“圣诞快乐，上帝保佑你们，地球人！”在随后的四年里，阿波罗任务教会我们作为人类意味着什么：一句话，永不满足现状。
好奇心没有穷尽，它只是不断找到新目标。
这一转变有多快，彼得?康拉德可谓感受良多。
他是月球行走第三人（也是第一个在月球上摔倒的人）。
一旦阿姆斯特朗和奥尔德林摘得首次登月的桂冠之后，没有人再对阿波罗12号感兴趣了。
然而，从诸多方面看，康拉德的太空任务是阿波罗任务中最有趣的一次。
比如，和他一起月球行走的艾伦?比恩，从来不是最具天分的宇航员，但是全凭勤奋苦练得以成功。
当他最终站在月球表面时，他把身上佩戴的美国航空航天局的银质徽章掷向远方，因为他知道月球行走会让他赢得一枚金质徽章。
但是当他返回地球，他转向康拉德，道出了自己对月球的失望：“感觉就像那首歌《难道仅此而已》。
”他道出了另一个永恒的真理：成就本身并不重要，你为此奋斗的事实才重要。

You will also usually be aware of any campus activities and how to be involved in them.Cons1. Little privacy. When living in a dorm, it can be very hard to find privacy. You have to share bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. You may never have quiet time in your dorm because there will always be something going on.2. Limited space. At most colleges, the dorm rooms are tiny. You have to limit what you bring to school, or your space will be too crowded.3. Possible low GPA (grade point average). Because dorm life is very social, your grades may be affected in a negative way. If you constantly choose hanging out with your dorm buddies over studying at the library, then your GPA will suffer.Ⅱ.

New York’s Department of Education makes learning better for these students by providing dual-language programs.Students are taught in two languages, English and another one, like Russian or Chinese. Math, social studies, science and all other regular courses are taught in both languages. And they learn about the culture of the other country.Milady Baez is Deputy Chancellor of English Language Learners and Student Support. She says these dual-language programs will help children succeed in the future.“The jobs of the future require that our students know more than one language. They are going to be traveling abroad; they are going to be communicating with people from all over the world. This will open doors for them.”Questions:1. How do New York public schools make learning better for students whose first language isnot English?2. What will help children succeed in the future according to Milady Baez?News Item TwoQuestions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.A growing number of American universities are dropping the entrance exam requirement. More than 800 universities now allow students to apply without a SAT or ACT test score. The SAT and ACT are the two major college entrance tests in the United States.Fo r years, colleges have used these tests to help measure an applicant’s academic skills. But more universities are becoming “test optional”. Students who apply to test-optional schools can choose whether they want to include test scores in their applications.George Washington University in Washington D.C. is one of the latest schools to adopt a test-optional admissions policy for most of its applicants. It is the largest private university to drop the test requirement.Karen Stroud Felton is the Dean of Admissions at George Washington University. She said in a statement that the university “had concerns that students who could be successful... felt discouraged from applying if their scores were not as strong as their high school performance.”Questions:1. What is the big change of American universities according to the news?2. Which of the following statements about George Washington University is TRUEaccording to the news?News Item ThreeQuestions 1 to 3 will be based on the following news item.Almost 900,000 international students are studying in American colleges and universities today. Nearly half of this record number of foreign students are from Asia, mainly China.They are among people from other countries who now make up about 4 percent of all university students in the U.S. America has more of the world’s 4.5 million international studentsthan any other country. A new report says more than 886,000 foreign students registered at U.S. universities during the school year 2013-2014. That is an increase of eight percent over the year before. The Institute of International Education and the State Department made the report.The study also demonstrates trends over the past 15 years. It shows that since 2000, the number of international students in the U.S. has grown by 72 percent. Students from China in undergraduate programs are mainly responsible for this trend.Questions:1. How many international students in the U.S. come from Asia?2. From 2013 to 2014, how many foreign students registered at U.S. universities?3. Which country is mainly responsible for the rapid increase of international students in the U.S.since 2000?Task 2 Understanding Long ConversationsConversation One1. D2. A3. C4. B5.

Freshmen2. 15Listening for specific comprehension1. B2. D3. B4. C5. A■ScriptListening for general comprehensionFreshmen 15 is a plague that haunts the mind of all newly high school graduates. You hear of this horror tale before even stepping foot on a college campus. So what exactly is the freshmen 15? Legend says that during your freshmen year of college, you end up gaining around fifteen pounds. Is this simply a story told to scare young freshmen, or a reality?The bad news is that a noticeable weight gain does occur among college students. However, the good news is it’s not as drastic as fifteen pounds. Food served in the dining halls is laden with fats while exercise in college has become a true burden. It is difficult to schedule a workout session among the already busy schedule filled with classes, clubs, homework, and organizations. Here at USC, the professors like to pack their students with work upon work, so students can truly “eat the fruits of the knowledge tree.” For an average student, it is considered a celebration if you could simply finish all your homework on time and sleep before 2 a.m. With that said, who cares about exercise?Listening for specific comprehension1. According to the passage, what does “15” refer to?2. How is the food like in the college’s dining halls?3.

How does a student feel if he finishes homework and sleeps before 2 a.m.?Passage TwoListening for general comprehension1. taking notes2. Four suggestions are given in the passageListening for specific comprehension1. A2. C3. A4. B5. C■ScriptListening for general comprehensionIt’s necessary for a student to take notes when he attends a lecture. The notes can be readily used in the future when the student forgets or reviews something.When a student takes notes in a lecture he has to do four things.Firstly, he has to understand what’s said, as the speaker says it. He can’t stop the lecture in order to look up a new word or check an unfamiliar sentence pattern.The second thing the student has to do is to decide what’s important in the lec ture. Many lecturers pause, and speak more slowly and loudly, when they’re making an important point.The third task that faces the student is that he has to write down the important points. The student should abbreviate, write down the important words, usually nouns, sometimes verbs oradjectives, and should write one point on each line. He ought, if possible, to choose a moment to write when the lecturer isn’t giving vital information.Finally, the student’s notes must show the connections between the various points he’s noted. If he makes intelligent use of spacing and underlining, together with the use of conventional signs and the numbering of points, he’ll be able to understand the framework of the lecture more easily. Listening for specific comprehension1. Why is it necessary for a student to take notes?2. What can a student do during a lecture if there is something he can’t understand?3. What do many lectures do when they are making an important point?4. When is the right moment to write down the important points?5.

Become familiarWill you go to a new school this year? Then during the summer, visit your new school. Find out exactly where it is and how long it takes to get there. This will help you avoid confusion on the day.Ask friends to introduce you to a student who goes to the school. You’ll feel better knowing some there.Keep it in balanceDecide how many activities you’ll participate in, and don’t do too much. Keeping schoolwork, home life and extra activities in balance will keep your stress level low.Here’s another tip to help you prepare for the first day of s chool. Start going to bed and getting up at your normal school time two weeks before school begins. Then your body and mind will become rested and prepared for the first day.Get involvedThe best way to make new friends is to join school clubs.

新核心大学英语三 主要课文翻译
Unit 1Main Reading ----拥有自己头脑的机器如果任其自由发展，有些机器可以学得更聪明，在一些最需要脑力的任务方面甚至会超越人类。
人类能否建造出可以演变得更好并可以超出人们想象而发明解决方案的机器吗？利用计算蛮力方法，计算机现在可以进行通行的国际象棋游戏。
1997年，IBM的一款名为深蓝的超级计算机击败了卡斯帕罗夫。
世界冠军认为这次经历如同与顶尖的人类挑战者对抗一样艰难。
阿蓝图灵，战时英国谜团破译密码工作背后的数学天才，于20世纪50年代设立了人工智能的标准，而深蓝的行为至少达到了其中的一个。
然而，深蓝的成功并没有给人工智能界留下深刻的印象，那是因为这台机器的创举仅仅在于运算速度快于其他任何以前的计算机。
巨大的处理能力可以使它预测到向前推进的棋步多达30个，而且它聪明的编程可以计算出数百万的可能的棋步中哪一步会加强它的位置。
但就本身而言，深蓝所能做的，而且出色完成的仅仅是数学。
它不能为象棋游戏制定自己的战略。
但是如果深蓝被赋予一种演变的能力，使用反复试验的经历学会完善自身，会怎么样呢？一种名为“演化硬件”的新技术正试图这么做。
和深蓝一样，演化硬件也是通过尝试几十亿个不同的可能，寻求解决方案。
区别在于，和深蓝不同，演化硬件不停地调整和完善它的搜索算法，而这也正是找到解决方案所需的逻辑步骤。
它每次都选择最好的，并加以尝试。
而且，它所作的一切不是根据编好的指令，而都是自动完成的，。
传统观念长期认为一个机器的能力是受限于创造者的想象力。
但是在过去的几年里，演化硬件的前驱已经成功地建造了一些可以自行调整并且表现更佳的设备。
有些情况下，后来出现的机器甚至超出了创造者的能力。
例如，在电路设计领域，对几十年来人类束手无策的一些问题，演化硬件却找出了创造性的解决方案。
演化硬件首先需要硬件可以重新配置。
如果一个设备不能调整形状或调整做事方法，它是不可能演变的。
拿一把瑞士军刀为例，如果要完成开启瓶子的任务，使用者要确认刀具中合适的工具，然后打开刀具，再把设备转变成一个可以敲开瓶盖的用具。

D■ScriptNews Item OneQuestions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.In New York City public schools, 176 different languages are spoken among the more than 1 million students.For 160,000 children, English is not their first language. New York’s Department of Education makes learning better for these students by providing dual-language programs.Students are taught in two languages, English and another one, like Russian or Chinese. Math, social studies, science and all other regular courses are taught in both languages. And they learn about the culture of the other country.Milady Baez is Deputy Chancellor of English Language Learners and Student Support. She says these dual-language programs will help children succeed in the future.“The jobs of the future req uire that our students know more than one language. They are going to be traveling abroad; they are going to be communicating with people from all over the world. This will open doors for them.”Questions:1. How do New York public schools make learning better for students whose first language isnot English?2. What will help children succeed in the future according to Milady Baez?News Item TwoQuestions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.A growing number of American universities are dropping the entrance exam requirement. More than 800 universities now allow students to apply without a SAT or ACT test score. The SAT and ACT are the two major college entrance tests in the United States.Fo r years, colleges have used these tests to help measure an applicant’s academic skills. But more universities are becoming “test optional”. Students who apply to test-optional schools can choose whether they want to include test scores in their applications.George Washington University in Washington D.C. is one of the latest schools to adopt a test-optional admissions policy for most of its applicants. It is the largest private university to drop the test requirement.Karen Stroud Felton is the Dean of Admissions at George Washington University. She said in a statement that the university “had concerns that students who could be successful... felt discouraged from applying if their scores were not as strong astheir high school performance.”Questions:1. What is the big change of American universities according to the news?2. Which of the following statements about George Washington University is TRUEaccording to the news?News Item ThreeQuestions 1 to 3 will be based on the following news item.Almost 900,000 international students are studying in American colleges and universities today. Nearly half of this record number of foreign students are from Asia, mainly China.They are among people from other countries who now make up about 4 percent of all university students in the U.S. America has more of the world’s 4.5 million international students than any other country. A new report says more than 886,000 foreign students registered at U.S. universities during the school year 2013-2014. That is an increase of eight percent over the year before. The Institute of International Education and the State Department made the report.The study also demonstrates trends over the past 15 years. It shows that since 2000, the number of international students in the U.S. has grown by 72 percent. Students from China in undergraduate programs are mainly responsible for this trend.Questions:1. How many international students in the U.S. come from Asia?2. From 2013 to 2014, how many foreign students registered at U.S. universities?3. Which country is mainly responsible for the rapid increaseof international students in the U.S.since 2000?Task 2 Understanding Long ConversationsConversation One1. D2. A3. C4. B5. AConversation Two1.

You hear of this horror tale before even stepping foot on a college campus. So what exactly is the freshmen 15? Legend says that during your freshmen year of college, you end up gaining around fifteen pounds. Is this simply a story told to scare young freshmen, or a reality?The bad news is that a noticeable weight gain does occur among college students. However, the good news is it’s not as drastic as fifteen pounds. Food served in the dining halls is ladenwith fats while exercise in college has become a true burden. It is difficult to schedule a workout session among the already busy schedule filled with classes, clubs, homework, and organizations. Here at USC, the professors like to pack their students with work upon work, so students can truly “eat the fruits of the knowledge tree.” For an average student, it is considered a celebration if you could simply finish all your homework on time and sleep before 2 a.m. With that said, who cares about exercise?Listening for specific comprehension1.

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

哈佛商学院，生日快乐！哈佛商学院建院100周年之际，处于领先地位比以往更加困难。
我们能从它目前的成功中学到什么？哈佛商学院的发展前景光明吗？4月8日建院100周年之际，其辉煌的历史会得到人们更多的关注。
但在迅速变化的全球经济中，这所全球著名的商学院面临所有著名院校都面临的各种新威胁。
新的直接竞争对手（如北京大学）正获得人们的关注。
能提供更快捷、更好培训的公司也日益增多。
如果胸怀大志的二十几岁的年轻人认为他们需要不一样的教育，以适应未来基于创造力和想象力的右脑经济，那么市场需求也要发生转变。
既然许多公司也面临哈佛商学院所面临的挑战，那么我想找出使该学院如此成功的本质，以及无论发生何种变化，该学院必须保留的核心价值。
于是我向各类校友提出一个相同的简单问题：你在哈佛商学院学到的最具价值的东西是什么？我学到一天有24小时，每分每秒都可利用。
—— Jeffrey Immelt，82届MBA毕业生，通用电气公司执行总裁不同却又相同所有人的回答都不同，但又都一样：没有人提到课堂内容，他们谈及的都是那段经历。
John Bishop 讲授生产与运营管理课，他总是用苏格拉底的步步逼问法来考察推理能力和细节，这样你就永远不会遗忘记。
可口可乐公司的Roberto oizueta 曾说，你会因苦思冥想一个问题而流汗。
John Bishop 的方法就教你如此思考商业问题。
——Adrian Slywotzky, 80 届MBA毕业生，Oliver Wyan 管理咨询公司合伙人这里的关键词是“你不会忘记”。
学校学的大多数东西我们都忘了。
哈佛商学院的校友也一样。
他们记住的不是所传授的知识，而是让他们认识自我的经历。
同有不同见解和专业知识的聪明人一起攻克难题，能产生令人惊叹的创造性成果。
——Rick Wagoner, 77 届MBA 毕业生，通用汽车公司执行总裁不仅仅是课堂课堂所讲内容并非全部，这样说合情合理。
这些内容不断在商品化。
教授都写书，任何人都能买到，甚至著名的哈佛商学院的案例也在出售。
我发现满足标记的课堂笔记和满是运算规则的黑板不能教会专业人士如何思考。
———Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, 78届MBA 毕业生， 80级 DBA 毕业生。
1980 —89 年在哈佛商学院任教，现任耶鲁经管学院教授特别难以复制的种是这印象深刻的经历，它源于该校的精英素质，以及残酷的竞争机制。
把高素质的学生集中起来，然后配以教师，这些教师能催促学生超常进步，并且在两学年内每天向他们挑战。
学生当然不会忘记。
但这种模式只有当学生和老师都很优秀时才奏效。
其他人可以从哈佛商学院学到的最重要的经验之一就是，这里始终有一种自我激励的机制在运行：这是一所卓越的学院，因此它吸引了最好的学生和老师，这些学生和老师又使学校保持辉煌，如此循环。
只要这种运行机制持续运转，哈佛商学院就会不断提供独特而有效的体验，使人无法忘记——这就是校友学到的最有价值的东西。
这种教育对每个人都很重要，因为哈佛商学院的唯一产品就是思想，唯一的资本就是人才资源。
在信息经济时代，许多公司处境相同。
对哈佛商学院而言，过去的100年始终使自我激励的机械运转是一项令人惊叹的成就。
在下一个100年要继续运转会更加艰难。
Unit2英语，世界语言今天大多数人会认可英语遍布于整个世界的物理、经济、文化领域和网络空间。
从好莱坞，微软到可口可乐。
美国在受到两次世界大战打击的世界上享有垄断权——英语是流行“酷”，是文化、旅游、市场和贸易，也是孤独者和好奇者通过互联网聊天来扩展自我的语言。
这是发展中的世界、曾经强大的世界，和向往民主的世界的年轻人不得不学习的语言。
历史上，和其它任何语言都不同，它正在成为一种全球性的语言。
英语是一种越来越没有阶级的语言。
也许这是因为它是美国的语言或者因为它是数字世界的语言。
无论如何，英语不仅仅是全球居民的一种方便的交流手段，也是一种意识形态运动―—即便是偶然的。
英语不能再被视为一个国家的语言。
加拿大人讲英语；美国人也讲；印度人、中国人、澳大利亚人、肯尼亚和俄罗斯人都在讲英语。
在1998年，试图把英语视为是大英帝国的专属语言是困难的。
一想到汉语人们就会将它与中国联系在一起。
同样的情况也适用于俄语、波兰语、韩国语、德语、越南语和斯瓦希里语。
每一种语言都是与一个国家有联系，即使是阿拉伯语，人们会将它与海湾地区的国家联系在一起，这些国家早在二十世纪初期，帝国主义的鼎盛时期被人为地划分了。
现在，在一次会议上，坐在你身旁讲英语的妇女，可能是来自华盛顿也可能是来自孟加拉国或者苏丹。
这个数字是惊人的。
在剑桥语言百科全书中，戴维·克里斯特尔提请注意一些惊人的数字。
各大洲都在使用英语。
在60多个国家，它是政府规定或认可的官方语言，在另外20个国家里英语处于很重要的地位。
超过1.5亿人能接收到英语广播节目。
世界各地有80%的电子信息是用英语存储的。
克里斯特尔还说“5千万儿童在小学阶段就把英语作为附加语言学习；超过8千万学生在中学阶段学习英语（这些数字不包括中国）。
”最后，他指出，世界上超过三分之二的科学家用英语写作。
冈萨罗·佩拉尔塔对这个问题有一个独特的视角。
他是生活语言学院的校长，山田圭子、多萝茜和荣格都在这所院校勇敢地学习沟通必须的日常短语。
佩拉尔塔拥有14年把英语作为第二语言教学的经验，并亲自目睹了英语在世界上的重要性。
“我在南美洲遇到的乞丐懂英语，他们都可以看莎士比亚的作品。
”这位智利本土人说。
在谈话中，很明显，他毫不怀疑英语的重要性，也不怀疑为什么他的学生从世界各地来到他的学校学习英语。
他强调说，“英语就像面包！有了它，你才能去任何地方。
”仿佛语言的价值就如作笔记时对钢笔的需要是同样明显的。
他补充道，“英语打开了机会的大门。
”大多数在他的学院就读的学生是大学生。
他们为了获得英语所提供的经济机会而学英语。
他说，很多年轻的工程师如果不使用英文的教科书就无法完成他们的课程。
甚至在毕业后，英语在全球工作场所也是广泛使用的。
“我在这里学习是因为我的工作需要懂英语。
”玛丽亚说，她是法律系的学生；她准备在委内瑞拉，她的家乡的律师事务所从事法律工作。
“如果你想找到一份好工作，你需要它。
”来自西班牙的鲁宾说，他准备将翻译当成自己的职业。
“如果我能流利地说英语，我可以与人们交流并获得更多的就业机会。
”小川哲也说，他曾经是日本的一位机械工。
他还补充说：“这是商业的语言。
”韩国计算机科学的学生杰瑞米说，“我需要它帮我找工作；英语有最多的信息，特别是对我的课程而言更是如此。
”“如果你想找工作，你就需要两种语言。
”另一个委内瑞拉人比阿特丽丝说，她在学习企业管理。
他们都将在数字时代、全球性的市场上工作。
Unit3我过英语关我的全名叫托马什·P.希纳尔斯基，你可以叫我汤姆。
在弗罗茨瓦夫理工大学学习工商管理学并获得硕士学位。
自1998年以来，我一直从事英语——波兰语的翻译工作，并兼做英语教学、网页设计和编程。
我是如何学英语的？1. 起初我6岁时开始学英语。
此后8年，我用和大家同样的方式学英语——上英语课。
这种方式效果极差。
老师让我做什么，我就做什么：记笔记、做各种家庭作业，所有要做的事。
然而，我的努力并没有多少收获，至少没有显著的收获。
牺牲了8年的时间就换来如此的结果……在小学，像《猴岛2》这样的冒险游戏是我仅有的英语语言输入。
因为我要玩游戏必需至少理解其中的一些英语。
我的英语有了点长进，就是由于电脑游戏。
1991年，当我父亲给我买了第一台电脑，我就开始玩冒险游戏。
在玩这些游戏时，我要读很多英语句子，一段时间后，我找到了一点“语法直觉”。
当我在本地的一次14岁年龄组英语竞赛中取得好成绩时，我觉得那些冒险游戏比英语课教会我更多的东西。
你知道，在读了这么多个小时的对话后，我常能“感觉”出语法考试中的正确答案，而别的同学却不得不死记硬背一大堆语法规则。
不过我的英语仍很差。
2. 后来，我有了强烈的自学英语的动机我开始认真地学英语，因为我想要提高自己的能力，想要与世人交流，想要得高分，想要找到一份高薪水的工作。
起初，我有着不良的动机，那就是要超过别人。
1993年我考入弗罗茨瓦夫最好的高中。
在那儿，我遇见了许多对我帮助非常大的同学和老师。
起初，我认为我不用努力就可以学得很好。
直到我遇到了我的两个同学——沃伊泰克·杰扎诺夫斯基和迈克尔·雷沙德·沃伊齐克，他们的英语学得都很棒。
沃伊泰克·杰扎诺夫斯基说一口漂亮的美语，迈克尔·雷沙德·沃伊齐克在英语方面很少会出错，并且，每次我听他们说英语，都感觉他们的词汇很丰富。
我对于他们的进步既羡慕又嫉妒。
我心里很清楚自己必须刻苦学习，否则会被他们落下的。
于是，我更加重视我的英语老师的建议。
我买了英—英词典，学着读里面的语音，在家里开始练习英语单词的发音，注意相似词的不同发音，比如：full 和fool。
尽管事实上波兰的学校把英式英语看成是标准发音，但沃伊泰克·杰扎诺夫斯基和迈克尔·雷沙德·沃伊齐克和我还是决定学习美式发音。
因为美语里有更多有趣的内容，比如，电视节目和电影。
我开始听录音模仿我所听到的表达，每天放学后我都会看美国的电视节目（美国有线电视新闻网，卡通电视网）。
结果，我的英语理解能力不断提高，并且我也逐渐从中学会了一些我可以用上的词汇和短语。
我所在的中学是与众不同的，因为那里有几个美籍老师。
我决定尽可能地抓住这个机遇，课间休息时我会找他们拉家常，有时课堂纪律不好，同学们在交头接耳，我会跟老师整整聊上45分钟。
我说英语时，一定会用简单的语法以免犯错误。
就这样坚持了两、三个月，我不再惧怕开口说英语。
当然，我经常会因为找不着合适的词而犯愁，也从不用条件句、过去完成时和as if从句，并且我的写作技能也一般（写作比起口语来需要更丰富的词汇）。
但是我通常可以用漂亮的发音犯较少的错误就可以表达我的基本意思，虽然有时我的表达像小孩子说的话。
3. 通过阅读，我的英语有了很大的提高在1994年暑假，我开始读英文书籍，大部分是惊险故事和科幻小说。
这主要得益于我英语老师的鼓励，沃伊泰克·杰扎诺夫斯基和迈克尔·雷沙德·沃伊齐克是我的榜样，他们也功不可没。
这对我来说是令人振奋的新体验，我自己都没有意识到一年之前作为高一学生的我居然可以像美国人或英国人一样读原版的英语文学作品了。
现在我一直在读英文小说，并且乐在其中，我的父母对此简直不敢相信！Unit4我过英语关我的全名叫托马什·P.希纳尔斯基，你可以叫我汤姆。
