Twenty-two people had been killed,and many more were in hospital.I don’t remember the rest---something about a government enquiry.27.I stopped listening,but I couldn’t move out of the chair.I think I must’ve known then that my dad was dead---even before the telegram came.28.The newspaper had fallen on the floor.I picked it up,not realizing what I was doing.I saw it---in the“Stop Press.”FACTORY DISASTER IN SELBY.MANY FEARED DEAD.I hadn’t seen it before.I’d been too busy picking winners.I could’ve saved my dad’s life,but I’d been too busy picking bloody winners.I don’t often cry,but the words swam in front of me then.29.There isn’t much more to tell.I got my own business,and I’m doing well.As for my Mum, she was paid insurance by the firm that owned the factory,so she’s better off than she ever was. The only thing is,she doesn’t care if she’s alive or dead now my Dad’s gone.30.When the gods wish to punish us,they make a damn good job of it.Word Listoutside adj.极小的（可能性、机会等）quote v.引证，引述rainy adj.下雨的，多雨的mechanic n.技工，机修工garage n.汽车修理厂（或兼加油站）；车房，车库restless adj.不安分的，坐立不安的mum n.(口语)妈妈council house n.（英国市、郡等统建的便宜的）公寓或房屋pension n.养老金；退休金；抚恤金tube n.（英）地铁gap n.(时间或空间的)间断，空白；差距；裂缝jump n.跳，跳跃my God interj.天哪（用以表示惊异、恐怖等）winner n.获胜的人或马等outsider n.（赛马中）不看好的马bet v.&n.赌博，打赌；赌注，赌金draw v.(从银行)取款lay v.押（赌注），赌（钱等）suspicious adj.(对...)起疑心的，可疑的notice n.辞职书；通知，预告announcer n.播音员，广播员explosion n.爆炸up adv.在北方，在高处enquiey(或inquiry)n.调查，查询stop press n.(英)（报纸付印时留出的）最新消息栏bloody adj.(英俚)该死的swim v.似在旋转，似在摇晃better adj.经济情况好转的damn adv.(口语)非常Proper NamesJan Carew简.卡鲁(人名)Selby塞尔比（地名）Useful Expressionsquote from...引用...a bit有点live on以...为生计，靠...生活build up发展be on one's mind挂在心上take one's mind off sth不去想...in the end最后（do sth.）for a change换换花样bet on赌；在...上下赌注come up产生，发生can't wait to do迫不及待地做（sth.)of one's own某人自己的... switch on打开（灯、收音机等）concentrate on(集中注意力于) come on上演，播放be better off更富裕give in交上，递交look forward to(sth./doing sth.)盼望（某事）I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon. if only...(接虚拟语气的动词)假如...该有多好呀If only I could have another life.make a good job of sth.把...做好You made a good job of organizing the trip.。

新编大学英语综合教程1-unit4

Unit 4 Fresh StartIn-Class Reading Fresh Start新的开端1当我父母开车离去，留下我可怜巴巴地站在停车场上时，我开始寻思我在校园里该做什么。

我决定我最想做的就是平安无事地回到宿舍。

我感到似乎校园里的每个人都在看着我。

我打定主意：竖起耳朵，闭上嘴巴，但愿别人不知道我是新生。

2第二天早上我找到了上第一堂课的教室，大步走了进去。

然而，进了教室，我又碰到了一个难题。

坐哪儿呢？犹豫再三，我挑了第一排边上的一个座位。

3“欢迎你们来听生物101 课，”教授开始上课。

天哪，我还以为这里是文学课呢！我的脖子后面直冒冷汗，摸出课程表核对了一下教室——我走对了教室，却走错了教学楼。

4怎么办？上课途中就站起来走出去？教授会不会生气？大家肯定会盯着我看。

算了吧。

我还是稳坐在座位上，尽量使自己看起来和生物专业的学生一样认真。

5下了课我觉得有点饿，便赶忙去自助食堂。

我往托盘里放了些三明治就朝座位走去，就在这时，我无意中踩到了一大滩番茄酱。

手中的托盘倾斜了，我失去了平衡。

就在我屁股着地的刹那间，我看见自己整个人生在眼前一闪而过，然后终止在大学上课的第一天。

6摔倒后的几秒钟里，我想要是没有人看见我刚才的窘相该有多好啊。

但是，食堂里所有的学生都站了起来，鼓掌欢呼，我知道他们不仅看见了刚才的情景，而且下决心要我永远都不会忘掉这一幕。

7接下来的三天里，我独自品尝羞辱，用以果腹的也只是些从宿舍外的售货机上买来的垃圾食品。

到了第四天，我感到自己极需补充一些真正意义上的食物。

也许三天时间已经足以让校园里的人把我忘在脑后了。

于是我去了食堂。

8我好不容易排队取了食物，踮脚走到一张桌子前坐下。

突然我听到一阵熟悉的“哗啦”跌倒声。

抬头看见一个可怜的家伙遭遇了和我一样的命运。

当人们开始像对待我那样鼓掌欢呼的时候，我对他满怀同情。

他站起身，咧嘴大笑，双手紧握高举在头顶上，做出胜利的姿势。

我料想他会像我一样溜出食堂，可他却转身重新盛一盘食物。

大学英语综合教程(一)重点背诵段落

大学英语综合教程(一)重点背诵段落本页仅作为文档封面，使用时可以删除This document is for reference only-rar21year.March英语背诵资料Unit 1Every day I see advertisements in the newspapers and on the buses claiming that it is easy to learn English. According to these advertisements, with very little effort on the student's part, he will be able to speak the language fluently in there months or even ten days. There is often a reference to William Shakespeare or Charles Dickens to encourage him even more. When I see advertisements like this, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. If it were as easy to learn English as they say, I would have to look for anther job, because very few qualified teachers would be needed. But a large number of people must believe these ridiculous claims, or else the advertisements would not appear.It is natural for students to be attracted to methods that will teach them as quickly and efficiently and cheaply as possible. But ti is difficult for anyone to explain in simple language why one method is better than anther, and it is no use pretending that anyone has discovered a perfect way of teaching English in every possible situation. Some experts even argue that there are as many good methods of teaching a language as there are good teachers, because every teacher is an individual with his own personality. No doubt this is true to a certain extent, but it is not very helpful to students.Unit 3Every person feels the same basic emotions, such as fear, happiness, anxiety and pain, yet each responds to them individually. When Kara's grandmother died, for example, her sorrow was expressed through tears. Another person might show the same kind of sorrow in a quiet, reflective way. Similarly, when you hear a piece of good news, you may jump up with joy and may immediately decide to throw a party for your classmates and friends to share your happiness and joy, another person may just keep the good news to himself or herself and just enjoy the happiness secretly. As you observe how people handle their emotions, you start to from a picture of this part of their personality.People are also different in how they relate to others. This reveals the social side of their personality, and there are plenty of variations. Some people prefer the company of others rather than being alone. We say they are sociable. Others are just the opposite. Most people want some combination of the two.Intellectual traits are the third part of personality. These qualities are influenced by the mind and how it works. One person may prefer spending his spare time in deep thought. Another may be more creative. Jake, for example, often has people in his class laughing. He sees humor in almost everything and is able to express it in entertainment ways.Unit 4Where there's a will, as they say, there's a way. When I told my best friends, Liz and Chris, about my problem, Liz put me in touch with a local dollmaker who made doll heads, hands and feet of a ceramic that closely resembled the old porcelain ones. From her I commissioned a doll head in the style of there-quarters of a century ago-making sure to specify "big blue eyes that opened and closed，”and hands and feet. From a doll supply house I ordered a long brown wig and a kidskin body, and Meagan and I shopped for fabric, lace and ribbon to duplicate the outfit GG had so lovingly described. Liz volunteered to put the doll together, and as the last days before Christmas raced by, Chris helped me make the doll's outfit, complete with lacy petticoat. And while Liz, Chris and I searched for doll "boots with real buttons," Meagan wrote and illustrated the story of the lost doll.Finally, our creation was finished. To our eyes it was perfect. But, of course, there was no way it could be exactly like the doll GG had loved so much and lost. Would she think it looked anything like itOn Christmas Eve, Meagan and I carried our gaily wrapped gift to GG. "It's for you," Meagan said, "but first you have to read the story that goes with it."Unit 5I held her tightly while she told me that her heart condition was worsening and couldn't be repaired. I think I had known for quite a while but had not been willing to admit it to myself. she'd had several heart attacks and, a few years ago, even open-heart surgery. What I didn't know, and what she had kept from me, was that her condition wasn't improving. We talked about her options, which were few ; we cried, held each other and wished for more time together.That was many years ago now. Mother died soon after that day, before my sons had a chance to know her. I still come to the park, but now I bring my boys. I still sit under that same sturdy pine tree on an old blanket and talk to my sons of family picnics, gatherings and the grandmother they never knew. Just as my mother did with me, I tell my children about their youthful funny behaviors and praise them for their accomplishments as young adults. We come to this special place to create our own memories-memories that I know would make my mother smile with pride.Unit 8The students at the top of the class attain academic excellence by mastering a few basic principles that others can easily learn. To begin with, top students know how to set their priorities right. Study time isnever compromised for phone call, television programmers or snakes. In other words, it is always placed above recreation. In addition, top students make a point of studying anywhere or everywhere. A top student who is also a top athlete memorises biology terms as he works out every day. Another student learns a new word every morning while brushing his teeth. Among all the students interviewed, every one agreed that study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some thrive at night when all is silent. Others prefer to study as soon as they come home from school when the lessons are fresh in their minds. However, all agreed that consistency is a main factor if one is to perform well at all times.A student must also learn to be organized. For example, a top student who is actively involved in his school band, track and field, rugby association and debate team disclosed that he keeps his things in their proper places because he simply cannot afford time-wasting searches. Another student immediately files the day's notes in colour-coded folders so that they are available for review nearing examination time. Another technique advocated by top students is to read effectively. This includes speed-reading, improving one's memory or retention ability, and actively asking question that will lead to a full understanding of the author's message.It is also important for students to know how to schedule their time. They must know how to pace each assignment or project according totheir daily timetable and work ability so that they might not be overwhelmed by the task at hand. Being able to set timetables not only allows students more time to review and polish their work, it also prevents them from procrastinating. Top students believe that a secret of their success is the talking down of good notes during lesson and using them for revision. One student revealed that she writes notes from the text on one side of her notebook and those from her teacher's lectures on the other side. This allows her to review both aspects of each lesson at once. The student also revealed that instead of wasting time whispering to friends and getting ready to rush out of the class just before the bell rings, she uses those few minutes to jot down a two or three-sentence summary of the lesson's principal points. She then scans the notes to refresh her memory before the next day's class.Another wining formula which teachers promote lies in a student's ability to hand in neat work. According to one professor, the student who turns in neat work is already on the way to scoring an A. In the classroom context, it is equally important for students to speak up and ask questions. This is perhaps the best way for a student to clarify any doubts. Classroom participation also demonstrates a student's intellectual curiosity. As a student concisely puts it, "Better grades come from better understanding."。

The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor. Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired; there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity. American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge; on the other hand, skills can be picked up later.美国人的立场可以概括起来这么说,我们比中国人更重视创新和自立;我们两种文化的差异也可以从我们各自所怀的忧虑中显示出来;中国老师担心,如果年轻人不及早掌握技艺,就有可能一辈子掌握不了；另一方面,他们并不同样地急于促进创造力的发展;美国教育工作者则担心,除非从一开始就发展创造力,不然创造力就有可能永不再现；而另一方面,技艺可于日后获得;However, I do not want to overstate my case. There is enormous creativity to be found in Chinese scientific, technological and artistic innovations past and present. And there is a danger of exaggerating creative breakthroughs in the West. When any innovation is examined closely, its reliance on previous achievements is all too apparent the "standing on the shoulders of giants" phenomenon.但我并不想夸大其辞;无论在过去还是在当今,中国在科学、技术和艺术革新方面都展示了巨大的创造力;而西方的创新突破则有被夸大的危险;如果仔细审视任何一项创新,其对以往成就的依赖则都显而易见“站在巨人肩膀之上”的现象;But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity are both worthwhile goals, the important question becomes this: Can we gather, from the Chinese and American extremes, a superior way to approach education, perhaps striking a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills然而,假定我这里所说的反差是成立的,而培养技艺与创造力两者都是值得追求的目标,那么重要的问题就在于：我们能否从中美两个极端中寻求一种更好的教育方式,它或许能在创造力与基本技能这两极之间获得某种较好的平衡UNIT 21. 面临,遭遇be confronted with2. 仰头向上看look up at3. 填写fill out4. 属于fall into5. 仅仅,不多于,不强于nothing more than6. 转瞬即逝的念头 a passing whim7. 磨损,损耗wear and tear8. 虽然,尽管in spite of9. 期望,盼望look forward to10. 富裕的,有钱的well off11. 不自在,格格不入out of place12. 陈旧的家具dated furniture13. …之后不久shortly after14. 走下坡路,失败go south15. 转折点 a turning point16. 与…形成对比in contrast to17. 对…予以注意,致力于focus on18. 归属感 a sense of belonging19. 遭遇困难go through a rough time20. 久不消逝的微笑 a lingering smile21. 为…感恩be thankful for22. 收入最低的档次the lowest income bracket23. 创作才能the gift of creativity24. 对物质财富的追求the pursuit of possessionsYet I feel nothing more than a passing whim to attain the material things so many other people have.

My minimal computer needs can be met at the library.然而,想要得到其他那么多人都有的物质的东西,对我来说,只不过是转瞬即逝的念头而已;我的汽车是1999年的产品,到现在开了十万五千英里,已经很破很旧了,但是它依然可靠;我的住房不大,但是很安静,住着挺舒心;我的衣服很适合于我的工作,主要都在户外;我对计算机的很少的需求,可以在图书馆得到解决;In spite of what I don’t have, I don’t feel poor.

I'd never thought I relied so much on co-workers for company. I began to understand why long-term unemployment can be so damaging, why life without an externally supported daily plan can lead to higher rates of drug abuse, crime, suicide.以前我从未意识到日常的生活起居是多么重要,如穿戴整齐去上班,按时就寝;以前我从未想过自己会那么依赖同事做伴;我开始理解为什么长时间的失业会那么伤人,为什么一个人的生活缺少了外部支持的日常计划就会导致吸毒、犯罪、自杀率的增长;To restore balance to my life, I force myself back into the real world. I call people, arrange to meet with the few remaining friends who haven't fled New York City. I try to at least get to the gym, so as to set apart the weekend from the rest of my week. I arrange interviews for stories, doctor's appointments -- anything to get me out of the house and connected with others.为了恢复生活的平衡,我强迫自己回到真实世界中去;我给别人打电话,与所剩无几的仍然住在纽约城的几个朋友安排见面;我至少设法去去健身房,以便使周末与工作日有所不同;我安排采访好写报道,预约看医生——安排任何需要我出门与他人接触的活动;But sometimes being face to face is too much. I see a friend and her ringing laughter is intolerable -- the noise of conversation in the restaurant, unbearable.I make my excuses and flee. I re-enter my apartment and run to the computer as though it were a place of safety.但有时面对面地与人相处实在难以忍受;我与一位朋友见面,她那种响亮的笑声让人忍无可忍——饭店里的噪杂谈话声也让人受不了;我找了个藉口逃之夭夭;我重新回到我的公寓,冲向电脑,似乎那儿才是一个安全的地方;I click on the modem, the once-annoying sound of the connection now as pleasant as my favorite tune.

It startled him for a brief moment. Then it all hit him like a wet bale of hay. The bar was set at nine inches higher than his personal best. That's only one inch off the National record, he thought. The intensity of the moment filled his mind with anxiety. He began shaking the tension. It wasn't working. He became more tense. Why was this happening to him now, he thought. He began to get nervous. Afraid would be a more accurate description. What was he going to do He had never experienced these feelings. Then out of nowhere, and from the deepest depths of his soul, he pictured his mother. Why now What was his mother doing in his thoughts at a time like this It was simple. His mother always used to tell him when you felt tense, anxious or even scared, take deep breaths.这一回,那跑道显得有些异样;刹那间,他感到一阵惊吓;一种惶惑不安的感觉向他袭来;横杆升在高出他个人最高纪录9英寸的高度;他想,这一高度与全国纪录只差1英寸了;这一刻紧张异常,他感到焦虑不安;他想摆脱紧张情绪;没有用;他更紧张了;在这种时刻怎么会这样呢,他暗暗思忖着;他有点胆怯起来;说是恐惧也许更为恰当;怎么办他以前从来不曾有过这种感觉;这时,不知不觉地,在内心最深处,出现了他母亲的身影;为什么是在这一刻记忆中,母亲在这种时刻会怎样做呢很简单;母亲过去总跟他说,当你觉得紧张、焦虑、甚至害怕的时候,就深深地吸气;So he did. Along with shaking the tension from his legs, he gently laid hispole at his feet. He began to stretch out his arms and upper body. The light breeze that was once there was now gone. He carefully picked up his pole. He felt his heart pounding. He was sure the crowd did, too. The silence was deafening. When he heard the singing of some distant birds in flight, he knew it was his time to fly.于是他深深吸了一口气;在摆脱腿部肌肉紧张的同时,他轻轻地把撑竿放在脚边;他开始舒展双臂和上身;刚才飘过一阵轻风,此刻消失了;他小心翼翼地拿起撑竿,只觉得心怦怦在跳;他相信观众们的心也在怦怦跳动;场上鸦雀无声,令人透不过气来;当他听见远处飞鸟啼鸣时,他知道,自己飞身起跃的时刻到了;UNIT 61.把…改成convert… into…2.对…一无所知don’t know the first thing about…3.把…区分开来distinguish… from…4.渴望独立be craving independence5.不禁不寒而栗can’t help shuddering6.处于劣势at a disadvantage7.在…方面when it comes to…8.偶然闯进stumble into9.轻而易举地把它学好it comes easily to somebody10.咬紧牙学好它grit your teeth to get good at it11.极有可能there’s a strong chance that12.把成绩提高到A pull the grade up to an A13.恐惧的时候moments of panic14.基于be based on15.文化熏陶cultural cues16.人不是孤岛; No man is an island17.毫无疑问, 不可否认There’s no denying that…18.与…相关联be relevant to19.不容改变的结论hard and fast conclusions20.生来就懂be born knowing21.有敢冒风险而为的精神take a leap of faith22.有所选择地听别人的话have a selective hearingWhy are we so quick to limit ourselves I’m not denying that most little girls love dolls and most little boys love videogames, and it may be true that some people favor side of their brain, and others the left.

A woman can learn anything a man can, but first she needs to know that she can do it, and that takes a leap of faith.It also helps to have selective hearing.秘密在于：对大多数人来说,数学和科学学习并不比其他人来得更容易些;没有人生来就懂微积分;男人能学会的,女人也能学会;但首先女人需要明白她能做到,而那需要足够大的勇气和自信;这也会有助于我们学会有选择地采纳别人的见解;UNIT 71.排行榜 a hit parade2.严格地说strictly speaking3.对我们真正至关重要的事the things that really matter to us4.发表演说make a speech5.为了加强效果for effect6.系统的研究 a systematic study7.起源于descend from8.提出come up with9.向西漂泊drift west10.留传给我们pass on to us11.日子过得开心enjoy oneself12.抚养孩子rear/raise a child13.诺曼人征服英国the Normans conquered England14.平民百姓common people15.印刷机 a printing press16.大量新思想 a wealth of new thinking17.欧洲文艺复兴the European Renaissance18.失控be out of control19.付诸实施put into practice20.个人自由的崇尚者 a respecter of the liberties of eachindividual21.开拓新路strike out new path22.培育了…的准则nourish the principles of …23.人权the rights of man24.知识精英an intellectual eliteTwo centuries ago an English judge in India noticed that several words in Sanskrit closely resembled some words in Greek and Latin. A systematic study revealed that many modern languages descended from a common parent language, lost to us because nothing was written down.两个世纪前,在印度当法官的一位英国人注意到,梵文中有一些词与希腊语、拉丁语中的一些词极为相似;系统的研究显示,许多现代语言起源于一个共同的母语,但由于没有文字记载,该母语已经失传;Identifying similar words, linguists have come up with what they call an Indo-European parent language, spoken until 3500 to 2000 B.C. These people had common words for snow, bee and wolf but no word for sea. So some scholars assume they lived somewhere in north-central Europe, where it was cold. Traveling east, some established the languages of India and Pakistan, andothers drifted west toward the gentler climates of Europe. Some who made the earliest move westward became known as the Celts, whom Caesar's armies found in Britain.语言学家找出了相似的词,提出这些语言的源头是他们称之为印欧母语的语言,这种语言使用于公元前3500年至公元前2000年;这些人使用同样的词表达“雪”、“蜜蜂”和“狼”,但没有表示“海”的词;因此有些学者认为,他们生活在寒冷的中北欧某个地区;一些人向东迁徙形成了印度和巴基斯坦的各种语言,有些人则向西漂泊,来到欧洲气候较为温暖的地区;最早西移的一些人后来被称作凯尔特人,亦即凯撒的军队在不列颠发现的民族;New words came with the Germanic tribes -- the Angles, the Saxons, etc. -- that slipped across the North Sea to settle in Britain in the 5th century. Together they formed what we call Anglo-Saxon society.新的词汇随日尔曼部落——盎格鲁、萨克逊等部落——而来,他们在5世纪的时候越过北海定居在不列颠;他们共同形成了我们称之为盎格鲁－萨克逊的社会;The Anglo-Saxons passed on to us their farming vocabulary, including sheep, ox, earth, wood, field and work. They must have also enjoyed themselves because they gave us the word laughter.盎格鲁－萨克逊人将他们的农耕词汇留传给我们,包括sheep, ox, earth, wood, field 和work等;他们的日子一定过得很开心,因为他们留传给我们laughter一词;UNIT 81. 在…的腹地in the heart of…2. 与…和谐相处live in harmony with3. 富足的农场prosperous farm4. 默默地穿越silently cross5. 在…中in the mists of6. 令…人目不暇接delight sb’s eye7. 以…为食feed on8. 蜂拥而至pour through9. 悄悄蔓延creep over10. 死亡的阴影 a shadow of death11. 对…迷惑不解be puzzled by12. 莫名其妙突然死去sudden and unexplained deaths13. 出奇地安静 a strange stillness14. 许许多多scores of15. 开花come into bloom16. 几处斑痕 a few patches17. 遭遇灾难的世界the stricken world18. 经历…的不幸experience the misfortune19. 多个 a substantial number of20. 想像的悲剧imagined tragedy21. 严酷现实stark reality22. 使…鸦雀无声silence the voices ofThere was once a town in the heart of America where all life seemed to live in harmony with its surroundings. The town lay in the midst of a checkerboard of prosperous farms, with fields of grain and hillsides of orchards where, in spring, white clouds of bloom drifted above the green fields. In autumn, oak and maple and birch set up a blaze of color that flamed and flickered across a backdrop of pines. Then foxes barked in the hills and deer silently crossed the fields, half hidden in the mists of the fall mornings.从前在美国中心有一个小镇,那里的万物看上去都与其四周的环境融洽相处;小镇的四周是像棋盘交错的生意盎然的农庄,还有一块块的田地和一座座遍布山坡的果园;春天来了,白色的鲜花云彩般地漂浮在田野上；秋天到了,橡树、枫树和桦树色彩斑斓,在一片松树林间火焰般地燃烧与跳跃;小山上狐狸吠叫,田野间小鹿静静地跃过,所有的一切都在秋天清晨的薄雾中半隐半现;Along the roads, laurel, viburnum and alder, great ferns and wildflowers delighted the traveler's eye through much of the year. Even in winter the roadsides were places of beauty, where countless birds came to feed on theberries and on the seed heads of the dried weeds rising above the snow. The countryside was, in fact, famous for the abundance and variety of its bird life, and when the flood of migrants was pouring through in spring and fall people traveled from great distances to observe them. Others came to fish the streams, which flowed clear and cold out of the hills and contained shady pools where trout lay. So it had been from the days many years ago when the first settlers raised their houses, sank their wells, and built their barns.在路的两旁,一年中许多时候,月桂树、荚莲、桤木、蕨类植物和各样的野花都能让过往的行人赏心悦目;即使是冬天,路边的景色依旧是美不胜收,那里无数的小鸟来觅取浆果莓和露在雪地上的枯枝上的种子;事实上,这乡村正是由于鸟类的数量和种类之繁多而出名的;在候鸟群潮涌而来的春秋季节,人们从大老远的地方慕名前来欣赏;还有的人来这里的小溪垂钓;清冽的溪水从山中流出,溪水中有许多鳟鱼藏身的背阴的水潭;所以,从许多年前开始,第一批居住者就在这里盖房挖井,搭起了自己的谷仓;。

大学英语一二册背诵段落

大学英语综合教程—考试要求背诵段落(第一二册)All the cabbie had was a letter (6—15)“T his isn‟t family, “he replied. “Although,” he went on, “come to think of it, it might just as well have been family. Old Ed was my oldest friend. In fact, we used to call each other …Old friend‟—when we‟d meet, that is. I‟m not much of a hand at writing.”“I don‟t think any of us keep up our correspondence too well,” I said. “I know I don‟t .But I take it he‟s someone you‟ve known quite a while?”“All my life, practically. We were kids together, so we go way back.”“Went to school together?”“All the way through high school. We were in the same class, in fact, through both grade and high school.”“There are not too many people who‟ve had such a long friendship,” I said.“Actually,” the driver went on, “I hadn‟t seen him more than once or twice a year over the past 25 or 30 years because I moved away from the old neighborhood and you kind of lose touch even though you never forget. He was a great guy.”“Y ou said …was‟. Does that mean—?”He nodded. “Died a couple of weeks ago. ““I‟m sorry,” I said. “It‟s no fun to lose any friend—and losing a real old one is even tougher.”Public attitudes toward science (1—2)Whether we like it or not, the world we live in has changed a great deal in the last hundred years, and it is likely to change even more in the next hundred. Some people would like to stop these changes and go back to what they see as a purer and simpler age. But as history shows, the past was not that wonderful. Is was not so bad for a privileged minority, though even they had to do without modern medicine, and childbirth was highly risky for women. Bur for the vast majority of the population, life was nasty, brutish, and short.Anyway, even if one wanted to, one could n‟t put the clock back to an earlier age. Knowledge and techniques can‟t just be forgotten. Nor can one prevent further advances in the future. Even if all government money for research were cut off (and the present government is doing its best), the force of competition would still bring about advances in technology. Moreover, one cannot stop inquiring minds from thinking about basic science, whether or not they are paid for it. The only way to prevent further developments would be a global state that suppressed anything new, and human initiative and inventiveness are such that even this would n‟t succeed. All it would do is slow down the rate of change.Tony Trivisonno‟s American Dream (30—33)After he passed away, I thought more and more about Tony‟s career. He grew in stature in my mind. In the end, I think he stood as tall, and as proud, as the greatest American industrialists.They had all reached their success by the same route and by the same values and principles: vision, determination, self-control, optimism, self-respect and, above all, integrity.Tony did not begin on the bottom rung of the ladder. He began in the basement. Tony‟s affairs were tiny; the greatest industrialists‟affairs were giant. But, after all, the balance sheets were exactly the same. The only difference was where you put the decimal point.Tony Trivisonno came to America seeking the American Dream. But he didn‟t find it—hecreated it for himself. All he had were 24 precious hours a day, and he wasted none of them.A valentine story (12—15)And there she stood. Her pale, round face was gentle and sensible, her gray eyes had a warm and kindly glow. I did not hesitate.My fingers gripped the small worn blue leather copy of the book that was to identify me to her. This would not be love, but it would be something precious, something perhaps even better than love, a friendship for which I had been and must ever be grateful.I squared my shoulders and saluted and held out the book to the woman, even though while I spoke I felt chocked by the bitterness of my disappointment. “I‟m Lieutenant John Blanchard, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner?”The woman‟s face broadened into a smile. “I don‟t know what this is about, son,”she answered, “but the young lady in the green suit who just went by, she begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should go and tell you that she is waiting for you in the big restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!”What animals really think (1—2)Over the years, I have written extensively about animal-intelligence experiments and the controversy that surrounds them. Do animals really have thoughts, what we call consciousness? Wondering whether there might be better ways to explore animal intelligence than experiments designed to teach human signs, I realized what now seems obvious: if animals can think, they will probably do their best thinking when it serves their own purposes, not when scientists ask them to.And so I started talking to vets, animal researchers, zoo keepers. Most do not study animal intelligence, but they encounter it, and the lack of it, every day. The stories they tell us reveal what I‟m convinced is a new window on animal intelligence: the kind of mental feats animals perform when dealing with captivity and the dominant species on the planet—humans.Learning, Chinese style (12—14)One way of summarizing the American position is to state that we value originality and independence more than the Chinese do. The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor. Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired; there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity. American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge; on the other hand, skills can be picked up later.However, I do not want to overstate my case. There is enormous creativity to be found in Chinese scientific, technological and artistic innovations past and present. And there is a danger of exaggerating creative breakthrough in the West. When any innovation is examined closely, its reliance on previous achievements is all too apparent.But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity are both worthwhile goals, the important question becomes this: Can we gather, from the Chinese and American extremes, a superior way to approach education, perhaps striking a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills?The richest man in America, down home (19—22)Walton set up a college scholarship fund for employees‟children, a disaster relief fund torebuild employee homes damaged by fires, floods, tornadoes, and the like. He believed in cultivating ideas and rewarding success.“He‟d say, …That fellow worked hard, let‟s give him a little extra,‟” recalls retired presidents\ Ferold F. Arend, who was stunned at such generosity after the stingy employer he left to join Wal-Mart. “I had to change my way of thinking when I came aboard.”“The reason for our success,” says Walton, in a company handout, “is our people and the way they‟re treated and the way they feel about their company. They believe things are different here, but they deserve the credit.”Adds company lawyer Jim Hendren: I‟ve never seen anyone yet who worked for him or was around him for the any length of time who wasn‟t better off. And I don‟t mean just financially, although a lot of people are. It‟s just something about him—coming into contact with Sam Walton just makes you a better person.A virtual life (10—13)I‟d never realize how important daily routine is: dressing for work, sleeping normal hours. I‟d never thought I relied so much on co-workers for company. I began to understand why long-term unemployment can be so damaging, why life without an externally supported daily plan can lead to higher rates of drug abuse, crime, suicide.To restore balance to my life, I force myself back into the real world. I call people, arrange to meet with the few remaining friends who haven‟t fled New Y ork City. I try to at least get to the gym, so as to set apart the weekend from the rest of my week. I arrange interviews for stories, doctor‟s appointments—anything to get me out of the house and connected with others.But sometimes being face to face is too much. I see a friend and her ringing laughter is intolerable—the noise of conversation in the restaurant , unbearable. I make my excuses and flee. I re-enter my apartment and run to the computer as though it were a place of safety.I click on the modem, the once-annoying sound of the connection now as pleasant as my favorite tune. I enter my password. The real world disappears.I‟m going to buy the Brooklyn Bridge (11—13)Racing the clock every day is such an exhausting effort that when I actually have a few free moments, I tend to collapse. Mostly I sink into a chair and stare into space while I imagine how lovely life would be if only I possessed the organizational skills and the energy of superheroines. In fact, I waste a good deal of my spare time just worrying about what other women are accomplishing in theirs. Sometimes I think that these modern fairy tales create as many problems for women as the old stories that had us biding our time for the day our prince would come.Y et superwomen tales continue to charm me. Despite my friend‟s warning against being taken in, despite everything I‟ve learned, I find that I‟m not only willing, but positively eager to buy that bridge she mentioned. Why? I suppose it has something to do with the appeal of an optimistic approach to life—and the fact that extraordinary deeds have been accomplished by determined individuals who refused to believe that “you can‟t” was the final word on their dreams.Men have generally been assured that achieving their heart‟s desires would be a piece of cake. Women of course, have always believed that we can‟t have our cake and eat it too—the old low-dream diet. Perhaps becoming a superwoman is an impossible dream for me, but life without that kind of fantasy is as unappealing as a diet with no treats.The glorious messiness of English (17—19)That tolerance for change also represents deeply rooted ideas of freedom. Danish scholar Otto Jespersen wrote in 1905, “The English language would not have been what it is if the English had not been for centuries great respecters of the liberties of each individual and if everybody had not been free to strike out new paths for himself.”I like that idea. Consider that the same cultural soil producing the English language also nourished the great principles of freedom and rights of man in the modern world. The first shoots sprang up in England, and they grew stronger in America. The English-speaking peoples have defeated all efforts to build fences around their language.Indeed, the English language is not the special preserve of grammarians, language police, teachers, writers or the intellectual elite, English is, and always has been, the tongue of the common man.。
