• To broaden the scope of knowledge • To develop good interpersonal relations with fellow students and teachers • To build up a positive outlook and attitude towards life • To discover one’s potential and then make great efforts to bring it into full play
Study methods In high school I learned from the textbooks. In class I took lots of notes and after class I did a lot of homework, I hardly had time to learn anything independently. In college I have discussions with my teachers and classmates, although I do have much homework from the teachers, I often study by myself in the library.
Daily life In high school I seldom helped my parents with the household chores and depended on them for everything. In college I have to be my own---I do laundry, make the bed and clean the dorm all by myself. And I have to plan my budget carefully.

全新版大学英语综合教程1 教案Unit1Unit One College LifeText A What to Expect from College LifeBackgroundTypes of Colleges in the U.S.If you’re planning to study in the U.S., you have a number of choices when it comes to pickyour college. There are many types of schools, each having its own mission and purpose within American education.Two-year collegesTwo-year institutions, which are typically referred to as community or junior colleges, award the associate degree — Associate of Arts (A.A.) or Associate of Science (A.S.) — followingsuccessful completion of a two-year, full-time program. There are two basic types of programs at community and junior colleges. Some programs are strictly academic and designed to prepare students to transfer to four-year institutions with bachelor's degree programs. Others are more practical or applied and provide career training in specific areas. This second type of school does not usually preparestudents for transfer to a four-year institution, though some of the credits earned may still be accepted by a four-year institution.A small number of two-year colleges offer the final two years of the undergraduate program only, awarding the bachelor‘s degree rather than the associate degree. Most community and juniorcolleges are publicly supported by the state and local communities, although some are private. Some private two-year colleges areproprietary or run for a profit.Four-year colleges and universitiesThe college or university (sometimes called an institute when it emphasizes engineering or other technical courses) awards the bachelor's degree. The Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degrees are the most common, but a variety of bachelor's degrees by other names are also granted. Bachelor's degrees are typically awarded following successful completion of a four-year, full-time program. Programs in some fields of study or at some institutions can be longer than four years. There are both public and private colleges and universities in the United States, and some have an affiliation with a religious denomination.Public versus privatePublicly supported schools are generally state colleges or universities or two-year community colleges. These institutions receive most of their funding from the states in which they are located. Private schools generally have higher costs because they do not receive the sameprimary funding from the state and federal government. Colleges and universities with religious affiliations are private. Most of them are Christian (Roman Catholic and Protestant), although there are a small number of Jewish and Islamic institutions. In most cases, you do not need to be a member of a particular church or religious group to attend a religiously affiliated college and enrollment in these institutions will not usually interfere with your own religious views. Privately owned colleges Proprietary institutions are different from other types of schools in that they are privately owned and run for a profit. They are "educational businesses" that offer services and courses similar to those at other institutions, but you need to be very careful and research their accreditation status. Their programs tend to be technical and pre-professional courses of study.Almost all the colleges in the United States are now coeducational, which means that both men and women attend. There are also a small number of single-sex schools, some for men and some for women. Faculty, administration, and staff members will likely be of both sexes at any college.Words and Expressions1.a little bit有点He was a little bit under the weather. , 他生病了。

大学体验英语综合教程1第二版课后答案全
大学体验英语综合教程1第二版课后答案全Unit1 college life学无止终考的最后一天,东部一所的大学里,一群大四的工科生聚集在一幢教学楼的台阶上,谈论着即刻就要开始的考试。
他们脸上都充满自信。
在参加即将到来的毕业典礼和从事未来的工作前,这是他们最后一门考试。
他们有的谈起了已经找到的工作,有的则谈论着要找的工作。
4年的大学学习给了他们全部的自信,使他们觉得自己足以征服世界。
眼前这场考试,不过是小事一桩。
这门课的教授已经说过,除考场上不能交头接耳外,允许他们带任何书或笔记到考场。
考生们依次进入考场,心情轻松而愉快。
当教授把考卷发给在座的考生后,学生们脸上的笑容更加灿烂,因为考卷上只有五道论述题。
她扫视着一张张焦虑的脸问道:“5道题答完的有多少?”没人举手。
“答完4道的有多少?”还是没有人举手。
“完成3道题的?2道题的?”考生们有些坐不住了,不安地动了动。
“那么,有没有写完一道题的?我想总有人做完一道题吧!”考场里还是一片寂静。
教授放下手中的考卷,说:“果真不出我所料。
”“我只是想让你们牢牢记住,即使你们已经学完了4年工科课程,在这个领域里,你们还有很多东西不懂。
在你们今后的日常工作中,类似于今天考卷上你们无法回答的问题很常见。
”接着,她微笑着补充说:“你们都会通过考试,但是请记住,即使你们现在已经毕业了,你们的学习才刚刚开始。
”多年后,这位老师的姓名已经被淡忘,但她的教诲却深深地刻在记忆中。
五、长难句解析1. On the steps of one building, a group of engineering seniors huddled, discussing the exam due to begin in a few minutes. (Para. 1)→解析:engineering seniors指工科专业的第四年级的学生。
discussing 是非谓语结构,引导伴随状语。
2. On their faces was confidence. (Para. 1)→解析:On their face. 英语句子中重点强调的内容多位于句尾,本句强调confidence(自信)所以用倒装形式则非常恰当。
