I. BII. TTTFFIV.1.Being unsuccessful in one’s life and career and financiallydisadvantaged is regarded as shameful or even sinful because in this world people tend to think that only those who are successful now can be saved from evil in the future.2.It is important to see the fact that although they differ in their classstatus and educational background, human beings are essentially the same. First of all they are, biologically speaking, constructed in the same way, and then they all share the feelings of fear and joy, and also the common experience of suffering and achieving. This commonality has bound them together. All of them will regard wars, diseases, and disasters both private and public as unfortunate big events in their life time.V ocabularyI.1.inner nature; indispensable quality; the most important part2.sins leading to damnation3.making you think or act wrongly4.tasks traditionally required of students5.far from enoughV. 1. synonym: balanced, compensated2. antonym: unconventional3. antonym: abundant, plentiful4. synonym: evaluated, assessed5. synonym: average6. synonym: essentially, basically7. antonym: lightly, frivolously8. antonym: temporarilyVI.1.另见PPTTranslationI.1.不管我们的标准是什么，这个标准现在提高了，结果使你对自己没能得到更高的分数而感到失望。
大学英语第二册课后练习答案Unit 7
参考译文：Unit 7 Text A有些语言拒绝引入新词。
另一些语言，如英语，则似乎欢迎新词的引入。
罗伯特·麦克尼尔回顾英语的历史，得出结论说，英语对变化的包容性体现了根深蒂固的自由思想。
英语中绚丽多彩的杂乱无章现象罗伯特·麦克尼尔我们的英语的历史是典型的大量窃取其它语言的历史。
正因为如此，今日英语的词汇量据估计超过一百万，而其他主要语言的词汇量都要小得多。
例如，法语只有约75,000个单词，其中还包括像snack bar (快餐店) 和hit parade (流行唱片目录) 这样的英语词汇。
但法国人不喜欢借用外来词，因为他们认为这样会损害法语的纯洁性。
法国政府试图逐出英语词汇，宣称Walkman (随身听) 一词有伤大雅，因此他们造了个新词balladeur让法国儿童用—可他们就是不用。
Walkman一词非常耐人寻味，因为这个词连英语也不是。
严格地说，该词是由日本制造商发明的，他们把两个简单的英语单词拼在一起来命名他们的产品。
这事儿我们不介意，法国人却耿耿于怀。
由此可见英语中绚丽多彩的杂乱无章现象。
这种乐意包容的精神，这种不管源自何方都来者不拒的精神，恰好解释了英语为什么会这么丰富，解释了英语缘何在很大程度上成了第一种真正的国际语言。
欧洲沿海一个弹丸小岛的语言何以会成为地球上的通用语言，比历史上任何一种其他语言都更为广泛地被口头和书面使？英语的历史体现在孩子最先学会用来表示身份(I, me, you)、所属关系(mine, yours)、身体部位(eye, nose, mouth)、尺寸量度(tall, short)，以及生活必需品(food, water) 的词汇当中。
这些词都来自英语的核心部分—古英语或盎格鲁一撒克逊英语。
这些词通常简短明了，我们今天仍然用这些词来表示对我们真正至关重要的事物。
伟大的演说家常常用古英语来激发我们的情感。
例如，在二战期间，温斯顿·丘吉尔作了如下的演讲来激励国民的勇气以抵抗对岸准备渡英吉利海峡来袭的希特勒的军队：“我们要战斗在海滩上，我们要战斗在着陆场上，我们要战斗在田野和街巷，我们要战斗在群山中。

She craves knowledge and works hard. However, as a scientist, she could not help noticing all kinds of indications of gender inequality on campus. Men and women professors did the same work, but when it came to promotion the administrators were rather selective. It was ironic that after so much cultural progress, women were still at a disadvantage in institution of higher education. When her request for more lab space was refused, she knew she had to fight.

English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.Unit8 Protecting Our Environment VocabularyI1.1)barking2)evil3)brooding;hatched 4)migrant 5)tragedies6)counterpart7)arecomplaining/co-mplain8)grim9)flocks; fed on10)vegetation11)patches12)Scores of2.1)was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguishedforeign guests.2)the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office.3)wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed thecrowed unnoticed.4)looked deserted.5)were stricken by it.3.1)patches; came into full bloom; were puzzled; mysterious2)throbbed with; sickened; migrant; a chorus3)had crept into; flickered; the starkII.Word Formation1.Compound words age-oldair force daughter-in-law first-rate greenhousehalf brother ice-cream lifelikelight year salespersonself-centered threefold overusestone-still worldwide Chinese meaning古老的空军儿媳妇一流的温室同母异父兄弟；同父异母兄弟冰淇淋逼真的光年售货员；推销员以自己为中心的，自私的三倍过度使用石头似的一动不动全世界范围的；在世界范围内2.1)poverty-stricken people2)heart-breaking news3)newly-built database4)well-fed kids 5)successful spacewalk6)peace-loving people7)need-based scholarships8)color-blind peopleIII.Confusable Words1.lyingidyin5.liey7.lieyy10.liesComprehensive Exercises I.cloze1.(1)spell(2)stricken(3)misfortunes(4)surroundings(5)blossom/bloom(6)migrant (7)deserted(8)silence(9)sickened(10)hatch(11)puzzled(12)in harmony with2.(1)rate(2)publication(3)dangerous(4)banned (5)export(6)profit(7)accept(8)comprehend(9)boundaries(10)ultimatelyII.Translation1.1)This is a prosperous town, but there is still poverty in the midstof wealth and abundance.2)The Brown family was stricken with one misfortune after another,but their children never complained.3)The museum is designed in such a way that it stands in perfectharmony with its surroundings.4)It was a miracle that these flowers did not wither at all in theblazing sun.5)Flocks of sheep feed on the patches of vegetation that rise abovethe winter snow.2.This village was once famous for its beautiful natural surroundings. All the year round, the trees were green and the flowers in bloom. Clear streams flowed out of the hills through a checkerboard of rice fields. Birds sang all day, and deer came and went in a leisurely manner. However, with the coming of DDT and other pesticides, an evil spell seemed to have settled over the village. Misfortunes came one after another. Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village doctor. The village square, once throbbing with life, was now deserted.。

Three factors continue to contribute to this spread of English: English usage in science, technology and commerce; the ability to integrate vocabulary from other languages; and the acceptability of various English dialects.
“By 2010, around 2 billion people, or a third of the world’s population, will speak English as a second language. In contrast, just 350 million people will speak it as a first language. By 2020, the number of native speakers will be down to 300 million,” the Daily Mail newspaper predicts.
Consonants at the end of words may be dropped. So “friend” may be pronounced as “frien” and “send” as “sen”. Group nouns like “information” and “furniture” – which don’t have plural versions – could vanish. Therefore, it may become acceptable in Panglish to talk about “informations” and “furnitures”.

English is now an international language and is used as a means of communication between people from many countries. As a result the influences on the English language are wider than ever and it is possible that World English will move away from using a British or American standard and establish its own international identity.
Middle English
English from about 1300 to 1500 is known as Middle English. It was influenced by French in governmental words, like “court”, “legal”, and “government” itself, and Latin in religious and educational words, like “minister”, “angel”, “school”, and “grammar”.
