Test Yourself (Unit 1-4) Part ⅠWriting An Unforgettable Lesson In my grade school days, some of my classmates and I would spend our lunch money at the store close to the school. After the meal, we’d walk around, talking and laughing for the rest of the lunch hour. A girl named Nancy was usually with us. But on that particular day she wasn’t there, and as we chatted away, we ended up talking about Nancy. Since opinions about her all seemed to be negative, I added,”Nancy isn’t very smart, either. She’s always asking others for their homework.”When she saw me the next day, Nancy asked,”Did you say you thought I wasn’t smart?”As I stood there looking Nancy in the face, I wished a thousand times that I could take back my cruel words. As I began to answer Nancy’s question I experienced the worst feeling that I had ever had up to that point in my life. In an apologetic voice I answered,”Yes, Nancy, I said it. But I’m truly sorry.”Nancy accepted my apology. But that day as I stood there, with my heart in my throat, I learned a lesson: Never say anything about someone that you wouldn’t want them to hear.

Test Yourself (Unit 5-8) Part ⅠWriting On keeping Petst for a long time. In almost every neighborhood, there are people who like pets and people who don’t. The former group of people think that pets are good and helpful companions. Some of them even go so far as saying that animals are as good as humans, and their rights should be respected. Those who hates pets say that animals are noisy, dirty and dangerous. They think laws should be made to forbid people from keeping dogs and cats in cities and towns. The different opinions on keeping pets, which reflect personal preferences, have caused many disputes and much unpleasantness among people who are close neighbors. Personally I do not like pets. But I think we should learn to respect the rights of pet lovers. We have no right to forbid people to keep pets in their home, as long as the animals are properly taken care of and do not threaten the safety and peace of others.

Unit1(1)When I was in college I had an English major and for a while I considered going into teaching.While I was exploring the possibility of becoming a teacher,I did a lot of thinking about the way that the education system in the United States is run.And I disagree with a lot of the ways that things seem to happen and have happened for a long time in our educational system.Uh…people don’t seem to recognize various kinds of intelligence;they seem to just want to give standardized tests and peg you for what you are capable of very early on your education.I’ve always felt that a lot of classes that you’re forced to take in high school are not really geared towards what you are going to be doing.There’s very little emphasis on your own special interests.Uh…everybody’s sort of treated like they’re the same person. Everything is very generalized.There’s a lot of uh…there’s a lot of pressure on students to be as well-rounded as possible.I think being well-rounded isn’t really possible because it becomes impossible to develop any one part of yourself um…to any great degree.And as a result people can’t get into good colleges if they,yaknow,haven’t,yaknow,scored the...the right thing on the math section of SAT,even if they are brilliant writers,and vice versa.You know,um…people just really are not given a chance,I think,in a lot of cases.Another thing that really disturbs me is the way that students are separated from each other.I got involved with vocational education,uh…which means that the kids go out to a technical or trade school for part of the week,and then they come back to the home school for the other part of the week and they take their academic classes.However,those kids are kept separate from the rest of the school almost as if they’re below them.There’s a lot of stratification.Um…at any rate I feel that the kids are very aware of the way that they’re perceived by the educators,by their teachers and,yaknow,by their peers.And I thinkthat it...it causes them to act in a way that...is...not really optimal.And that’s pretty sad to me.I actually had kids tell me when I was teaching them,“yaknow,we’re the just bad class, we...yaknow,it’s not that we have a problem with you personally,yaknow,we are just bad, we are bad kids”because pretty much that was what they felt they were.And yaknow,their classes were very limiting,uh the teachers never try to do anything creative with those classes.I think that many of the kids in that class were intelligent,but never actually realized their potential because of the way they were tracked very early on their education.在我上大学的时候我有一个英语专业的学生,一段时间我考虑进入教学。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:For the most part, rapid economic development has been a boon. But there is a down side to development -- health problems such as overweight are all becoming more prevalent, as more people take taxis to work instead of riding their bicycles, and other labor-saving devices become more popular.An increasingly fast pace of life makes it difficult for people to spend time working out or playing sports. "I know exercise is good for your health," a young lady said. "But after a busy work week, the only thing I want to do is watch some TV and go to sleep." That attitude may explain the results of a recent nationwide study, which suggested 15 percent of urban adults in China are overweight, a large number of people over the age of 40 suffer from high blood pressure and cardiac ailments.Local researchers found that 31.2 percent of elderly respondents were getting enough exercise, but less than 9 percent of youngsters and the middle-aged got an adequate amount of physical activity.Elderly people understand the importance of protecting their health. The young people, however, are busy working and use this as an excuse to avoid exercise. In fact, physical exercise doesn't require much time, money or a special gymnasium. (S1) People can make use of any time and any place at their convenience to take part in sports. Walking quickly, cycling, climbing the stairs and dancing are all helpful methods to enhance one's health.The benefits of adding a little more activity to your life are priceless. "There is no need to be an athlete, however," a local doctor said. People should walk for 30 minutes a day and takepart in some other physical activity three to five times a week. He warns, however, that people in poor physical shape should start slowly, and build up over time.China has taken the need for more exercise to heart, with the government running several activities last Sunday, which was the designated World Health Day. Pamphlets and posters based on the theme "Move for Health" were distributed nationwide, encouraging people to develop a positive and healthy lifestyle.21. Rapid economic development has resulted in all the following except _____________.A) an increasing number of taxi passengersB) the wide use of labor-saving devicesC) an increasingly fast pace of lifeD) people's awareness of the importance of exercise22. Some people are getting overweight because __________.A) they are too busy to have any time for exerciseB) they are ignorant of the benefits of exerciseC) they are too weak to participate in physical activityD) they are short of money to pay for different exercises23. According to the passage, who need regular daily exercise most?A) People taking taxis to work.B) Urban adults with full-time jobs.C) Elderly people suffering from high blood pressure.D) Youngsters dreaming of becoming professional athletes.24. What is the main idea of the last paragraph but one?A) Many people are still unable to afford the cost of physical exercises.B) Nobody should take part in physical activity in order to be an athlete.C) Moderate physical exercise is usually enough for ordinary people.D) Old or sick people should only take part in physical exercises of the slowest type.25. By referring to rapid economic development as "a boon" at the beginning of the passage, the author means that ____________.A) it has benefited the general public greatlyB) it has done harm to people's health nationwideC) it is going faster than anyone could have imaginedD) it has helped to establish a positive and healthy lifestyle of the publicPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:For Roy Johnson, a senior magazine editor, the latest indignity came after a recent dinner at a fancy restaurant in the wealthy New York City suburb where he and his family live. First the parking valet handed him the keys to his Jaguar instead of fetching the car. Then an elderly white couple came out and handed him the keys to their black Mercedes-Benz. "It took them a while to realize that I was not a valet," says Johnson. "It didn't matter that I was dressed for dinner and had paid a handsome price for the meal, just as he had. What mattered was that I didn't fit his idea of someone who could be equal to him."Such incidents, which are depressingly familiar to African-Americans of all ages, incomes and social classes, help explain why black and white attitudes often differ so completely. A recent survey found that 68 percent of blacks believe racism is still a major problem in America. Only 38 percent of whites agreed.Many Americans find the gulf between blacks and whites bewildering. After all, official segregation is a bad memory and 40 years of laws, policies and court decisions have helped African-Americans make significant progress toward equal opportunity. Indeed, a black man born in Harlem could be the nation's next president.But racism persists, unmistakable to every black but largely invisible to many whites. (S2) It is evident in the everyday encounters African-Americans have with racial prejudice and discrimination, like the valet parking incident. Such encounters often strike whites as trivial misunderstandings. But they remind blacks that they are often dismissed as less intelligent, less industrious, less honest and less likely to succeed. Some insults are patently racist; others may be evidence of insensitivity or bad manners rather than racial prejudice. But the accumulation of insults feeds anger."What is amazing to me is the number of whites who express surprise that any of this happens," observes Mary Frances Berry, chairperson of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, who says she has been watched at shopping malls.26. The word "valet" in the first paragraph most probably means __________________.A) a restaurant ownerB) a driver of expensive carsC) a wealthy-looking gentlemanD) a restaurant employee taking care of the cars of the diners27. Roy Johnson was unfairly treated because ______________.A) his car was inferior in qualityB) he forgot to wear proper clothesC) he failed to express himself clearlyD) he is black28. From the passage we can learn that ____________________.A) both blacks and whites are bewildered by racismB) examples of racism are common in the USC) some government officials have very bad memoriesD) a black man born in Harlem will be the next US president29. It is implied in the passage that many white people deny the presence of racism in the US because __________.A) they tend to regard instances of racism as trivial misunderstandingsB) they have never seen any instance of racism in their countryC) they believe that black people are inherently less intelligent and less industriousD) they have always treated black people as their equals30. Judging from the context, the most possible explanation for Mary Frances Berry's being watched at shopping malls is that ____________________________.A) she was a national celebrityB) she didn't fit people's idea of an Afro-American womanC) many people nowadays are insensitive and rudeD) she is blackPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Add Littleton, Colorado, to the list of cities dazed with grief after a school slaughter. Two students shot and killed 12 other students and a teacher before taking their own lives. The massacre was the largest in the history of this nation. This type of crime didn't exist 10 years ago.Americans should stop acting surprised that these shooting happen in "nicer" neighborhoods. That's the only place they happen. None of the recent school massacres took place at an inner-city campus; they all occurred in smaller towns or suburbs. (S3) These killers haven't been from impoverished or extremely violent families. They don't appear to have been picked on（挨骂受罚）any worse than kids have been for generations. They chose alienation and destruction, and they found the tools to carry out their hate-filled plan.Do not blame schools for these massacres. Schools simply take what they are sent. Question the killers' parents. The parents are supposed to teach their children respect and empathy for others' lives. Parents should help their offspring learn to handle taunt or conflict without resorting to violence.All concerned adults should take a youth's threat to shoot someone as seriously as airport security guards take jokes about bombs. Students must be encouraged to tell teachers if a classmate threatens or jokes about violence. Administrators at schools around the country need to emphasize they will take such reports seriously, and that they will not identify any student who comes forward with such a report.More gun regulations probably won't stop these shootings, but gun owners and sellers must take more responsibility for keeping weapons away from young people. Gun owners should keep their guns unloaded, locked up and hidden away. Most car owners don't leave their keys in the car even when they park in their own garage; gun owners should be at least as careful with weapons.The federal government can't solve this problem. Schools alone can't solve it. More guns won't solve it. Americans must consciously create a culture that makes violence unacceptable. Parents need to stop allowing their children's minds to be polluted with violence. News media need to show more restraint and thought about how and what they report.The Colorado massacre is a national tragedy. More's the pity if Americans do not stop, reflect and vow to make it the last school massacre.31. One common feature of all the recent school massacres is that ______________________.A) they have all been carefully planned by hateful youngstersB) the killers have all failed to passed their examsC) they all occur in places that appear to be all rightD) the killers are all from disadvantaged families32. Children are less likely to become killers if _______________________.A) their parents succeed in teaching them respect and empathy for others' livesB) they study hard in school and get high scoresC) teachers stop telling meaningless jokes in classD) they follow the rules set by administrators at schools around the country33. Who does the author think should take the main responsibility for campus shootings?A) School authorities.B) The federal government.C) News media.D) The killers' parents.34. What is the most effective way to prevent school massacre from happening again?A) Reinforcing stricter laws and regulations.B) Introducing security guards onto campus.C) Creating a culture that makes violence unacceptable.D) Keeping weapons away from young people.35. From the passage we can infer that ___________________________.A) there were a lot of school massacres in inner-cities 10 years agoB) many people turn a blind eye to school massacreC) a youth's joke about violence is often ignored by other peopleD) most gun owners like to leave their guns in their carsPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:A new look at an asteroid orbiting the sun shows it could possibly smash into the Earth with tremendous force. But experts say the potential impact is still 872 years away, time enough for the speeding space rock to alter its course.(S4) Named 1950 DA, the asteroid -- 1 kilometer wide -- is the most threatening to the Earth of all of the known large asteroids, but the odds are only about one in 300 that it would impact the planet, researchers said."One in 300 is pretty long odds," said Jon D. Giorgini, a scientist in California. "I'm not personally going to worry about. It is so far in the future that lots of things could change." There are approximately 1,000 asteroids bigger than a kilometer that can pass near the Earth in their orbit of the sun. About 580 have been found and their orbits plotted. Of these, only 1950 DA represents a possible threat. Scientists continue an effort to identify all the other large asteroids that pass near the Earth, and it is their great hope that they don't find any that are greater threats.If 1950 DA did hit the Earth, said Giorgini, it would have planetwide effects, setting off fires, changing the weather and perhaps creating immense tidal waves. But it would not be a planet killer like the asteroid thought to have snuffed out the dinosaurs some 65 million years ago.Asteroid 1950 DA was first discovered in 1950, but then not noted in astronomy logs again for decades. It was rediscovered in the year 2000 and in March 2001 whizzed within about 77 million miles of Earth, giving astronomers an opportunity to gather visual and radar readings. From that, the astronomers projected the orbital path 1950 DA would take on its next 15 near passes of the Earth -- over a period covering nearly nine centuries. For the 15th near pass, on March 16, 2880, the analysis showed it was mathematically possible, though unlikely, that the asteroid could hit the Earth.He said the highest probability is that the asteroid in 2880 will miss the Earth by about 290,000 kilometers -- a distance closer than the 370,000-kilometer orbit of the Moon around the Earth.36. Talking about asteroids, the writer tells us that __________.A) nothing can alter the course of an asteroid in its orbit of the sunB) it usually takes 300 years for scientists to discover an asteroidC) scientists have managed to identify all the asteroids orbiting the sunD) there is no immediate threat to the Earth from an asteroid right now37. We can infer from the passage that __________________________.A) larger asteroids are more likely to smash into the EarthB) an asteroid will probably just miss the Earth in 2880C) asteroids will eventually destroy everything on EarthD) no asteroid was noted in astronomy logs before 195038. Judging from the context, the word "whizzed" (in Paragraph 6) most probably means ________________________________.A) kept turning aroundB) went into and out of its orbit quicklyC) moved very fastD) exploded all the while39. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A) Scientists have managed to know everything about asteroid 1950 DA.B) Many people seem to be worried about the predicted asteroid smash.C) Scientists are still quite optimistic about man's future.D) The Earth is faced with frequent threats from space.40. The best title for the passage is _____________________________.A) Possible Asteroid Smash in 2880B) New Discoveries about 1950 DAC) Asteroids in the Solar SystemD) Earth -- an Unsafe Place for LifeVocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Now loud, now soft, Caroline talked to all the creatures in the stream and was fussing about everything while I looked at the boats gliding over the water in silence. Though we did not see anything spectacular, we enjoyed every minute in the town that lies out of the range of the heavy traffic and noise of the large city.Zhouzhuang is worth visiting and, time permitting, I’d like to go there again.Test yourself u1 to u4Globallization by the bookGlobalization is actually quite easy to define.

And when I landed in New York it was still my 20th birthday and I celebrated it by eating Chinese food that came in funny little white containers I‘d never seen before。

Yet, frankl y, my car doesn’t do anythi ng that my brothe r’s Studeb akerdidn’t do. It goes, it stops, it burnsgas oli ne. I stillhave to steerit, and it stillruns into things if I don’t steerit carefu lly.But guesswhat? All of thesethings are likely to change in the not-so-distan t future. It may not burn gasoli ne, I may not have to steer it, and it may be a lot better at not runnin g into things.Airbag s aren’t the be-all and end-all in safety. In fact, consid eri ng the recent news aboutpeople occasi onall y beingkilled by theirairbag s in low-speedcollis ions（碰撞), they obviou sly stillneed some develo pment. But they aren’t go ingaway, and in fact, you can expect to see cars appear ing with add iti onal, side-impact airbag s, someth ing some Europe an car manufa cturers alread y offer.Better than system s to minimi ze（使减少到最低限度） injury in the eventof an accide nt ,howeve r, are system s that m inimi ze the likeli hoodof an accide nt happen ing. Future cars may be able to remove many of the majorcauses of accide nts, includ ing drun k-drivin g, and tailga ting. Cars couldbe equipp ed with sensor s that can detect alcoho l in a driver’s system and preven t the car from b eingstarte d, for exampl e. As earlyas next year, you’ll be able to buy cars with radar-equipp ed contro l system s.

Nobody really expect s people to give up all control to theircars, but such system s couldbe used as failsa fe system s to keep cars on the road and bringthem safely to a stop even if the driver sudden ly became disabl ed.71.Why was the author fascin atedby cars becaus e _______.A. othersmallboys likedto own a car of theirown, too.B. he read unconv entio nal things aboutcars in his brothe r’s magazi nes.C. his oldest brothe r lovedto take him to places in his car.D. he subscr ibedto cool car magazi nes.72.By saying "my car doesn’t do anythi ng that my brothe r’s Studeb a kerdidn’t do", the authormeansthat_____.A. my car is far better than my brothe r’sB. my car is not as go od as my brothe r’sC. not much has change d in the perfor mance of cars so farD. much improv ement has been made in the design of cars recent ly73.

Test Yourself1Passage OneLaura walked towards the man. "It is terribly cold," she said."Colder than ever," the man said. "Now tell me what the hell you want." He stared at Laura for a few seconds, and then grinned, "Maybe you'd like to come inside and warm up. "No. No, I don't want to come in." She took a deep breath. "I just wanted to know if you're interested in selling your dog." "That worthless mutt?" The man pointed to a dog in the yard and laughed for a few seconds, then suddenly stopped. "I was just joking about the worthless part. He's a pretty good dog. Yeah. I might be interested." "Well, he's the kind of dog I'm looking for, and it doesn't look to me like you're too fond of him. I mean he' s tied up outside. I don't see any food or water." "You just wait a minute. I take good care of that dog. The guy I got him from said he was a trained guard dog. Trouble is the stupid thing doesn't even bark when strangers come around. But then I guess that wouldn't matter to you. You' re probably just looking for a pet, huh?" "Yeah, well here's your chance to get rid of him.I'll give you twenty dollars." He snorted(哼着鼻子说) . "You expect me to sell a purebred guard dog for twenty dollars? Fifty dollars. That' s my price. You bring me fifty dollars, honey, and you got yourself a dog." The man smiled. "Sure you don't want to come in?" Laura shook her head. "I'll be back with the money." Breakfast forgotten, she searched for and found a cash machine four blocks away. I can't afford this, she thought as she punched the numbers into the machine. The dog will need a vet(兽医) and where am I going to get the money for that? Her fears faded(消退) as she pictured the dog, curled up, not outside on the cold, hard ground, but in frontof a glowing fireplace.Blue ceramic bowls filled with food and water sat in the corner of the kitchen, and she saw him, head held high, matching her stride on their daily walk. With the money in her purse she hurried back to the man's house.26. Why did Laura walk up to the man?A. To ask him where she could buy a pet.B. To see if she could buy his dog.C.

She's got the money in her purse to pay for the pet she desiredTest Yourself1Passage TwoAlthough Thomas Jefferson did not begin the effort of designing the University of Virginia until late in his life, the education of the common man had occupied his thoughts for decades. He believed ignorance (无知) to be the enemy of freedom, and he wanted to correct what he considered to be the weaknesses of educational institutions (机构) modeled on European settings. He imagined that an "academical village" around a tree-lined lawn would provide an ideal setting in which to pursue higher education. The center of such a village would be a Temple of Knowledge that would house the university library.When Virginia decided to set up a state university in 1818, the retired U.S. President finally was able to devote his talent, time, and energy to creating this new kind of educational institution. By the time he was finished with his design, Jefferson had invented an entirely new American setting for higher education: the college campus.In 1812, Jefferson chose to begin building his "academical village," the University of Virginia, in Charlottesville, VA, far away from the city center. He intended this spot to promote learning because it was natural and unspoiled, and far from anything that could distract or harm the students. The University consists of two rows of houses, five on each side, leading to a main building. This main building, the Rotunda, became the most important part of the University, because it contained the library. By focusing his entire institution on the library, instead of around the church, Jefferson revolutionized American university architecture.Jefferson's aim was to create a new institutional form for his ideal educational system, a system he thought should give every citizen the information he needs for carrying out his daily business. This new approach to citizenship and education demanded a new type of university, one where students and professors could coexist and share ideas. He attempted to create this environment by combining the professors' houses and students' classrooms, and linking all the buildings with covered walkways so intellectual exchanges between departments could go on smoothly. Jefferson had also recognized the importance of the students' whole life, and given much thought and planning to the students' dining, living, and exercise facilities (设施).31. Jefferson devoted much of his thought to the education of the common man because he believed ________.A. everyone who loved freedom hated ignoranceB. a country could not be strong without educationC. an uneducated man could not gain full freedomD. European educational institutions did not suit America32. According to Jefferson, the center of a university should be _______.A. the churchB. the libraryC. the lawnD. the classrooms33. Jefferson chose to locate the University of Virginia far away from the city center because________.A. land in the city center could not be foundB. there was a tree-lined lawn thereC. this was a European traditionD. there was no distraction for the students34. In Jefferson's view, an ideal educational system should ________.A. be one under which every citizen enjoys equal opportunityB. give everyone the information he needs for conducting his businessC. ensure that everyone has a chance to enter an institution of higher learningD. provide students with a natural and unspoiled setting for learning35. What was made easy by the revolutionized American campus?A. Students' learning.B. Intellectual exchange.C. Professors' teaching.D. Both students' and professors' life.Test Yourself1Passage ThreeThe good news we get from TV and radio makes us feel more kindly toward other people, but bad news — especially news of cruelty and violence — stirs up suspicion and a sense of competition toward others.These are the findings of 10 years of experiments by research psychologists (心理学家) at Columbia University, who conclude that broadcasters encourage hostile (敌对的) behavior by stressing bad news."We found that the news people are exposed to either encourages them to concentrate on the differences between themselves and others, or on the common problems that make them feel,'We're all in this together,' " explained Dr. Harvey Hornstein."'News about one human being helping another … brings out feelings of trust and cooperation. But news about one person actually doing harm to another changes our estimate of other people for the worse."”In an early experiment in 1968, Dr. Hornstein and his associates, who had been dropping wallets (钱包) for two years to test the honesty of people, discovered that on June 4, 1968, not one wallet was returned."That was the night Robert F. Kennedy was shot," he recalled. "Strangers suddenly seemed dangerous, and nobody wanted to return a lost wallet to a stranger.""But good news on the other hand, lifts us up," he stressed, citing the date of July 4, 1976, America’s Bi centennial (两百年的) celebration. "On that day, we all felt safe and good. Being American was the thing. We all felt as if we all belonged together."Recent tests support these conclusions. In one experiment, 60 subjects were exposed to good news, bad news or music. Then they were told to play a game with a non-existent person supposedly in another room. It was a game of choice that emphasized cooperation or competition. After hearing good news, the overwhelming majority, 91 percent, played cooperatively. But after hearing bad news, competitive responses were over three times as high — up to 28 percent, from 9 percent."If we watch television and see a lot of blood," said Dr. Hornstein, "we’re probably assuming that the world is a dirtier place than we assumed before we saw that TV violence. And we’ll deal with the next individual we come upon as if he is part of that grim (冷酷的) picture of humanity. After the good news, it’s the reverse."36. According to the findings of researchers at Columbia University, when people hear good news, they feel _______.A. happierB. more kindly toward othersC. safer than they really areD. more competitive37. Dr. Harvey Hornstein found that when people hear news about one person actually doing harm to another, they tend to _______.A. regard other people as worse than they really areB. treat total strangers as suspects of cruel crimesC. become hostile towards neighbors and friendsD. think about the common problems facing mankind38. What did Dr. Harvey Hornstein and his associates discover on the night of June 4, 1968?A. Robert F. Kennedy was shot.B. Their wallets were lost.C. People in America suddenly became dishonest.D. Nobody returned the wallets they dropped.39. We can infer from the passage that on July 4, 1976, most probably _______.A. people drank and sang and dancedB. lost wallets were returned to their ownersC. everybody wanted to be AmericanD. even criminals were friendly to others40. We can conclude from the passage that _______.A. violence on TV leads to more violence on the streetsB. broadcasters should emphasize good news rather than bad newsC. the world is a dirtier place than we assume it to beD. people are more competitive when they are faced with challengesKaleil Isaza Tuzman moved to the United States from Columbia when he was 15. Within a few years he was pushing to get ahead, hawking (叫卖) baseball caps to pay the bills his Harvard scholarship didn't cover.After graduating, he landed on Wall Street, but every night he dreamed of working for himself. During the booming (繁荣的) 1990s, he gave it a try when he and a partner started govWorks - a software company that helped city government go online.They raised $60 million and expanded like crazy. Then dotcoms started turning into dotbombs - govWorks broke up too. Says Isaza Tuzman, "Entrepreneurs (创业人) have to be ready for both success and failure. In Columbia if you fail, you become a pariah and no one will do business with you. The wonderful thing about this country is you can get up again."From national parks to moon landings, America has given the world some amazing ideas. But the American Dream is still the biggest - the idea that with hard work and a bit of luck you can be whoever you want to be. Historian James Truslow Adams once wrote that Americans believe "life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement."These days there's pressure on the dream idea. A 1978 study of boys born and raised after World War II found an astonishing 23% of the poorest had reached the top of the income heap by 1973. Now, in a typical generation, only 10% work their way from bottom to top.But every day, some still do make it. After govWorks went bankrupt, Isaza Tuzman built on what he had learned. His new company, Recognition Group, restructures (重组) firms and finds them venture capital – nearly $150 million so far. Last year, "Hispanic Business" magazine named him to its 100 Most Influential list. Not bad for a dreamer, in a country built on dreams.41. What did Kaleil Isaza Tuzman dream of after graduating from college?A. Working in the Wall Street stock market.B. Starting a business of his own.C. Climbing to the top of society.D. Entering the IT industry.42. The word "pariah" in " if you fail, you become a pariah" (Line 3,Para. 3) most likely means "________."A. a person who has no futureB. a person to be pitiedC. a person to be condemnedD. a person to be avoided43. What does the author mean by the American Dream?A. Everyone can reach the top of the social ladder.B. People will have a better, richer, and fuller life than their parents.C. A lucky poor boy can move to the top if he works hard.D. Everyone enjoys equal opportunity and share in the wealth.44. Which of the following statements is true of the American Dream these days?A. It is becoming more and more difficult for one to work their way from the bottom to the top.B. More and more people are feeling the pressure to work harder in order to realize their dreams.C. It is becoming more and more unpopular because few people today can move up the social ladder.D. If one works hard enough, he will eventually make his dreams come true.45. To Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, the wonderful thing about America is that ________.A. there is equal opportunity for everyoneB. everyone can get rich if they work hardC. you can get capital if you want to start a businessD. you can start all over again after failureTest Yourself1Vocabulary and Structure46.

Those who hates pets say that animals are noisy, dirty and dangerous. They think laws should be made to forbid people from keeping dogs and cats in cities and towns. The different opinions on keeping pets, which reflect personal preferences, have caused many disputes and much unpleasantness among people who are close neighbors.Personally I do not like pets.

基础综合英语unit5textB原文及翻译
Finding your true calling找寻内心真实的呼唤The very worst use of time in life is to stay for months or years at a job for which you are completely unsuited.However, a great number of people spend their whole lives doing something during the week so that they can somehow find some thing enjoyable to do on the weekend.人们一生中利用时间最糟糕的莫过于经年累月地从事自己完全不合适的工作。
可是, 有相当多的人却一生都是如此度过的: 工作日内做做事, 周末找些乐子。
In every case, these are men and women with very little future before them.They look upon their jobs as a form of drudgery, a penance they have to pay in order to enjoy the rest of their lives.And because of this attitude, they will seldom advance or be promoted.They will stay pretty much at the same level, moving from job to job, and always wondering why other people seem to live the "good life" while they feel they are living lives of quiet desperation.从各种情况看, 这些人的前途黯淡。
