By doing this, the soldiers would be more determined and concentrated on the battles.2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational human behavior when making a decision, such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open.3 The experiment enabled people to see why it's always so hard for them to say "NO" to any opportunities that came to them. In everyday life, people just give excuses to keep options open.4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash. They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors.5 Because we can see that the students didn't really focus on ensuring future cash earnings. What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close.6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly, not like the ones on the computer in the experiment, people don't really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little.7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking, reduce options, delegate tasks to others, and even give away ideas to others to pursue.8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attention in a more concentrated fashion. They will have more with fewer, carefully chosen options.31 implement2 rival3 motivating4 discarded5 fluctuating6 prejudiced7 restore8 enlightening9 profit 10 investigateWord building 4 Words learned New words formed-ic strategy strategic sympathy sympathetic -ion confirm confirmation locate location reflect reflection provide provision install installation register registration quotation quote -ize sympathy sympathize critic criticize industrial industrialize51 sympathize2 confirmation3 strategic4 installation5 quote6 sympathetic7 criticize8 location9 reflection 10 industrialize 11 provision 12 registration Banked cloze61 M2 D3 H4 05 F6 L7 I8 C9 J 10 AExpressions in use 7I was attached to 2 be measured in 3 come in handy 4 clinging to 5 pay a big price6 are exhausted from7 imposed on8 revolve around10National Happiness Index (NHI) is an index that measures how happy people are.

With the fast growth of Chinese economy, the Chinese government has been paying more and more attention to people's living quality and the increase of happiness index.The government stresses improvement of its people's livelihood, striving to improve their economic conditions and meet their growing material and cultural needs. Currently, the Chinese government advocates the unleashing of more reform dividends, with the aim of offering morereal benefits to its people.

Embroidery, with at least two or three thousand years of history, is one of the Chinese traditional folk arts and crafts. Since most embroiderers are women, it's also called "women's needlework". Embroidery has been much-loved by the Chinese people. It can be used to beautify clothing and things. For example, clothes, quilts, pillowcases etc. can be embroidered with beautiful designs,or a piece of embroidery can be made for a special ornament. There are four most famous typesof embroidery in China: Suxiu from Suzhou, Yuexiu from Guangdong, Xiangxiu from Hunan, and Shuxiu from Sichuan, each having its own style and theme. Among the four, Suzhou embroidery has enjoyed the highest reputation.Unit 8 Human rights vs. Animal rightsunderstanding the text:Text A Animals or children?-A scientist’s choice1. He became a children’s doctor because of this love for children and hisstrong desire to keep them healthy.2. He is thought of having no moral compass: He tortures innocent animals for his careeradvancement and his experiments having nothing to do with medicine.3. The public barely watches, convinced that the issue has no significance to them, while thesenator and politicians continue to give way to the lobbying of animal rights activists4. The author does not really admit their mistake, but the tone is apparently ironic, criticizingthat the physicians were too soft to respond to the animal rights activists.5. Life is cruel to both animals and human beings . if the physician don’t create an animal mo of the problem, they have to do experiments on human beings, or the medical knowledge willremain static.6. Drugs to cure infection will remain undiscovered, surgical and diagnostic techniques willremain undeveloped, and fundamental biological processes will remain mysteries.7. Because protection from serious sickness and drugs as well as most complex surgicalprocedures were initially developed in animals instead of human beings8. If the more radical members of this movement are successful in threatening further research,their efforts will bring about a tragedy that will cost the lives of many human beings.

新视野大学英语第三版第二册读写课文翻译Unit 1 Text A一堂难忘的英语课1 如果我是唯一一个还在纠正小孩英语的家长,那么我儿子也许是对的。
对他而言,我是一个乏味的怪物:一个他不得不听其教诲的父亲,一个还沉湎于语法规则的人,对此我儿子似乎颇为反感。
2 我觉得我是在最近偶遇我以前的一位学生时,才开始对这个问题认真起来的。
这个学生刚从欧洲旅游回来。
我满怀着诚挚期待问她:“欧洲之行如何?”3 她点了三四下头,绞尽脑汁,苦苦寻找恰当的词语,然后惊呼:“真是,哇!”4 没了。
所有希腊文明和罗马建筑的辉煌居然囊括于一个浓缩的、不完整的语句之中!我的学生以“哇!”来表示她的惊叹,我只能以摇头表达比之更强烈的忧虑。
5 关于正确使用英语能力下降的问题,有许多不同的故事。
学生的确本应该能够区分诸如their/there/they're之间的不同,或区别complimentary 跟complementary之间显而易见的差异。
由于这些知识缺陷,他们承受着大部分不该承受的批评和指责,因为舆论认为他们应该学得更好。
6 学生并不笨,他们只是被周围所看到和听到的语言误导了。
举例来说,杂货店的指示牌会把他们引向stationary(静止处),虽然便笺本、相册、和笔记本等真正的stationery(文具用品)并没有被钉在那儿。
朋友和亲人常宣称They've just ate。
实际上,他们应该说They've just eaten。
因此,批评学生不合乎情理。
7 对这种缺乏语言功底而引起的负面指责应归咎于我们的学校。
学校应对英语熟练程度制定出更高的标准。
可相反,学校只教零星的语法,高级词汇更是少之又少。
还有就是,学校的年轻教师显然缺乏这些重要的语言结构方面的知识,因为他们过去也没接触过。
学校有责任教会年轻人进行有效的语言沟通,可他们并没把语言的基本框架——准确的语法和恰当的词汇——充分地传授给学生。
8 因为语法对大多数年轻学生而言枯燥且乏味,所以我觉得讲授语法得一步一步、注重技巧地进行。

So, people can see Cowherd and Weaving Maid meeting in the Milky Way on the night of Qixi. On this night, girls would also beg Weaving Maid for some wisdom for a happy marriage.

U2 AA child's clutter awaits an adult's return儿时百宝箱老大归家梦I watch her back her new truck out of the driveway. The vehicle is too large, too expensive. She'd refused to consider a practical car with good gas efficiency and easy to park. It's because of me, I think. She bought it to show me that she could. 我看着她在车道上倒着她的新卡车。
车太大,而且太贵。
她就是不愿意考虑买辆开起来省油、停起来省心的实用型汽车。
我想,原因在我。
她买这辆车就是为了让我看看她的能耐。
"I'm 18," she'd told me so often that my teeth ached. "I am an adult!"“我18 岁了,”她经常这样对我说,以至于听得我牙都疼了。
“我是成年人了!”I thought, is that true? Just yesterday you watched some cartoons. What changed between yesterday and today?我心想,真的吗?昨天你还在看动画片呢。
今天和昨天又能有多大的变化?Today she's gone, off to be an adult far away from me. I'm glad she's gone. It means she made it, and that I'm finally free of 18 years of responsibilities. And yet I wonder if she could take good care of herself.今天她走了,远离我去寻求成年人的独立。

Text A课文AThe humanities: Out of date?人文学科:过时了吗?When the going gets tough, the tough take accounting. When the job market worsens, many students calculate they can't major in English or history. They have to study something that boosts their prospects of landing a job.当形势变得困难时,强者会去选学会计。
当就业市场恶化时,许多学生估算着他们不能再主修英语或历史。
他们得学一些能改善他们就业前景的东西。
The data show that as students have increasingly shouldered the ever-rising cost of tuition, they have defected from the study of the humanities and toward applied science and "hard" skills that they bet will lead to employment. In other words, a college education is more and more seen as a means for economic betterment rather than a means for human betterment. This is a trend that is likely to persist and even accelerate.数据显示,随着学生肩负的学费不断增加,他们已从学习人文学科转向他们相信有益于将来就业的应用科学和“硬”技能。

The formation and development of the Chinese calligraphy is closely related to the emergence and evolution of Chinese characters. In this long evolutionary process, Chinese characters have not only played an important role in exchanging ideas and transmitting culture but also developed into a unique art form. Calligraphic works well reflect calligraphers’ personal feelings, knowledge, self-cultivation, personality, and so fort h, thus there is an expression that “seeing the calligrapher’s handwriting is like seeing the person”. As one of the treasures of Chinese culture, Chinese calligraphy shines splendidly in the world’s treasure house of culture and art.Unit 2 College-The ladder to successText A The humanities:Out of dateReading Comprehension1. because English or history majors are considered less competitive when the jobmarket is shrinking, and they have to study something that can help them more easily locate their future jobs.2. because as the tuition is climbing higher and higher, many students have run away from studying the humanities and toward “hard” skills that they think will lead to employment.3. since more students are now taking job-oriented courses, libraries, where students of liberal arts used to study, are getting less popular than before; in contrast, labs are getting more eye-catching because students of science and engineering do experiments and research there.4. because this inner drive that can be either constructive or destructive is so mysterious and powerful that it has attracted many people to speculate on it. From ancient times, these men and women developed artistic “languages” in the form of story, music, myth, painting, architecture, sculpture, landscape and traditions, which from the very foundation of civilization.5. Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write, makes you familiar with the language of emotion and the creative process, and, more importantly, provides you with a wide scope of possibilities that are open to you.6. Because in modern life, an ideal capacity for establishing one’s career is to have both technical knowledge and inner insight, not just one without the other.7. “Well-round ed human beings” are those who have insight and understand the passions, hopes and dreams common to all humanity.8. Since many people who once studied the humanities became famous in their career, the author implies that if students spend more time studying the humanities, they could surely become successful in the future as well.Language focus 31. promotes2. accelerate3. mystery4. insight5. boost6. analysis7. calculate8. barriers9. destruction 10. prospect4Promising Bearing Housing Objective Offend Exclude Excess Execute Intensify Identity51. excess2. bearing3. objective4. intensify5. execute6. promising7. exclude8. identity 9 offend 10. housing6.1-5 CHDJB 6-10 LMGFA71. are liable to2. in favor of3. is bound to4. speculate about5. invested…with6. stand up for7.in the form of 8. prepared for 9. in the company of10 in succession10In recent years, with the development of Internet technology, the construction ofdigital education resources of our country has made great achievements. Many universities have set up their own digital learning platforms, and digital teachingis playing an increasingly important role in education.

On one hand,digital teaching makes global sharing of teaching resources possible; on the otherhand, it expands the learner’s study time and space to learn, allowing people toget access to the digital virtual schools through the Internet anytime and anywhere.These advantages make it possible for people to shift from one-time learning tolifelong learning.Unit 3 Discovery of a new life stageText A The humanities:Out of date1. Because people in different life stages are confronted with different problems and setbacks and each group of people in a particular time period have their particular worries and pains.norm refers to the general consensus that as soon as students graduated from college, they would enter adulthood and be able to find an ideal job leading to their career.3. They are recognized as a new life stage that comes after high school graduation, continues through college and leads to starting a family and having a career.4. Because nowadays so many young people are following this new lifestyle that it has become a trend. As long as the economic situation continues its long slide, this new stage is unavoidable.5. Unlike their parents, a large number of young people are now delaying marriage, child bearing, and even employment during their odyssey years.6. They often resent the pressure they’re feeling and keep a distance from their parents or even run away from home. Many also resort to computer games, iPods, iPhones, or iPads.7. Their parents feel more anxious and upset seeing their children’s o dyssey years continue to stretch without a clear direction.8.

With filial piety being the core of Confucian ethics,it has been the moral standard for the Chinese society to maintain the familyrelationship for thousand s of years. It’s undoubtedly a traditional Chinese virtue.The culture of filial piety is a complex concept, rich in content and wide in range.It concludes not only cultural ideas but also institutional etiquettes. Generallyspeaking, it refers to the obligation of children to their parents required by thesociety, including respect, care, support for the elderly and so forth. Filial pietyis fundamental to the ancient “Oriental civilization”.Unit 4 Dance with loveText A College sweetheartsEx. 11. The author uses this sentence to tell her own love story. She didn’t expect that she would end up marrying Butch. He became her boyfriend just because of her wish to find a cute boyfriend. She didn’t really want to marry him at the beginning.2. Because when she met up with Butch the first time, he kept staring at her all night long. He flattered her and fell in love with her at first sight. He looked really wild or maybe even dangerous.3. Because Butch had a “bad boy image” which was very tempti ng to a lot of girls, and his wild, dynamic personality was a little frightening. She didn’t know whether she could be getting along with him.4. Though she always had an excellent reputation in respect to her schoolwork, she thought that her college life was dull, with no fun. In her opinion, college was supposed to be a time of great learning and also of some fun.5. Because she was becoming more interested in him and she wanted to find out if she was the “right” date in the eyes of Butch, thinking o f herself as a traditional girl.6. It means that Butch didn’t want to do anything to change his bad situation. The word fate here refers to the fact that Butch was going to be expelled from the university.7. Though Butch was wild and would sometimes display directly his love in front of her friends, he was always a perfect gentleman at his core.

Because she was becoming more interested in him and she wanted to find out ifshe was the “right ”date in the eyes of Butch, thinking of herself as a traditional girl.6. It means that Butch didn ’t want to do anything to change his bad situation. The word fate here refers to the fact that Butch was going to be expelled from theuniversity.7. Though Butch was wild and would sometimes display directly his love in front ofher friends, he was always a perfect gentleman at his core.

By doing this, the soldiers would be more determined and concentratedon the battles.2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational humanbehavior when making a decision, such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open.3 The experiment enabled people to see why it's always so hard for them to say "NO" to any opportunities that came to them. In everyday life, people just give excuses to keep options open.4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash. They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors.5 Because we can see that the students didn't really focus on ensuring future cashearnings. What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close.6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly, not like the ones on the computerin the experiment, people don't really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little.7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking, reduce options, delegatetasks to others, and even give away ideas to others to pursue.8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attentionin a more concentrated fashion. They will have more with fewer, carefully chosenoptions.31 implement2 rival3 motivating4 discarded5 fluctuating6 prejudiced7 restore8 enlightening9 profit 10 investigateWord building 4 Words learned New words formed-ic strategy strategic sympathy sympathetic -ion confirm confirmationlocate location reflect reflection provide provisioninstall installation register registrationquotation quote -ize sympathy sympathize criticcriticize industrial industrialize51 sympathize2 confirmation3 strategic 4installation 5 quote 6 sympathetic 7 criticize8 location 9 reflection 10 industrialize 11 provision 12 registration Banked cloze61 M2 D3 H4 05 F6 L7 I8 C9 J 10 AExpressions in use 7I was attached to 2 be measured in 3 come in handy 4 clinging to 5 paya big price 6 are exhausted from 7 imposed on 8 revolve around10National Happiness Index (NHI) is an index that measures how happy people are.

Embroidery, with at least two or three thousand years of history,is one of the Chinese traditional folk arts and crafts. Since most embroiderers are women, it's also called "women's needlework". Embroidery has been much-loved by the Chinese people. It can be used to beautify clothing and things. For example, clothes, quilts, pillowcases etc. can be embroidered with beautiful designs, or a piece ofembroidery can be made for a special ornament.

Amongthe four, Suzhou embroidery has enjoyed the highest reputation.Unit 8 Human rights vs. Animal rightsText A Animals or children?- A scientist ’s choice understanding the text:1. He became a children ’s doctor because of this love for children and hisstrong desire to keep them healthy.2. He is thought of having no moral compass: He tortures innocent animals for hiscareer advancement and his experiments having nothing to do with medicine.3. The public barely watches, convinced that the issue has no significance to them, while the senator and politicians continue to give way to the lobbying of animalrights activists4. The author does not really admit their mistake, but the tone is apparently ironic, criticizing that the physicians were too soft to respond to the animal rightsactivists.5. Life is cruel to both animals and human beings . if the physician don’t create an animal model of the problem, they have to do experiments on human beings, or the medical knowledge will remain static.6. Drugs to cure infection will remain undiscovered, surgical and diagnostictechniques will remain undeveloped, and fundamental biological processes will remain mysteries.7. Because protection from serious sickness and drugs as well as most complexsurgical procedures were initially developed in animals instead of human beings8. If the more radical members of this movement are successful in threateningfurther research, their efforts will bring about a tragedy that will cost the lives of many human beings.

Every year, some big businesses organizevarious activities, and young people send gifts to their lovers. As a result,the Qixi Festival is considered to be Chinese “Valentine’s Day”. The QixiFestival is derived from the legend of Cowherd and Weaving Maid. The legendholds that on this particular night every year the Weaving Maid in heaven meetswith Cowherd. So, people can see Cowherd and Weaving Maid meeting in the MilkyWay on the night of Qixi. On this night, girls would also beg Weaving Maid forsome wisdom for a happy marriage. But, with the changing of times, theseactivities are diminishing. All that remains is the legend of Cowherd andWeaving Maid, a sign of faithful love, continuously circulated among the folk.Unit5 The money gameText A Spend or save-The student’s dilemmaEx.31. contradict2. paradox3. perspective4. explicit5. suspended6. derive7. defy8. retains9. manipulating 10. tackleEx4-er browse browsermessage messenger consumer consume -ion negotiate negotiation object objection react reaction constitute constitution cultivate cultivation define definition expand expansion concentration concentrate civilization civilizeEx.51. concentrated2. messenger3. civilized4.

This trade route focuses on the trade of silk, hence the name “the Silk Road”. As an international trade channel and a bridge of cultural exchanges, the Silk Road effectively improved the economic and cultural exchanges and development between the East and the West, exerting a profound impact on the progress of the world civilization. Nowadays, under the new historical circumstances, our country proposes the strategy of “One Belt, One Road”(namely the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st-century Maritime Silk Road). The strategy of “One Belt, One Road” focuses on cooperation and mutual benefits, emphasizing mutual benefits, win-win, as well as common development of the related countries. Once proposed, the strategy has received positiveresponses from the related countries along the road.Unit6 Less is moreText A Door closer,are you?Reading comprehension Understanding the text11 He was imposing on his troops a necessary sacrifice to achieve victory over their opponents. By doing this, the soldiers would be more determined and concentrated on the battles.2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational human behavior when making a decision, such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open.3 The experiment enabled people to see why it's always so hard for them to say "NO" to any opportunities that came to them. In everyday life, people just give excuses to keep options open.4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash. They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors.5 Because we can see that the students didn't really focus on ensuring future cash earnings. What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close.6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly, not like the ones on the computer in the experiment, people don't really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little.7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking, reduce options, delegate tasks to others, and even give away ideas to others to pursue.8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attention in a more concentrated fashion. They will have more with fewer, carefully chosen options.31 implement2 rival3 motivating4 discarded5 fluctuating6 prejudiced7 restore8 enlightening9 profit 10 investigateWord building 4 Words learned New words formed-ic strategy strategic sympathy sympathetic -ion confirm confirmationlocate location reflect reflection provide provisioninstall installation register registrationquotation quote -ize sympathy sympathize critic criticize industrial industrialize51 sympathize2 confirmation3 strategic 4installation 5 quote 6 sympathetic 7 criticize 8 location 9 reflection 10 industrialize 11 provision 12 registration Banked cloze61 M2 D3 H4 05 F6 L7 I8 C9 J 10 AExpressions in use 7I was attached to 2 be measured in 3 come in handy 4 clinging to 5pay a big price 6 are exhausted from 7 imposed on 8 revolve around10National Happiness Index (NHI) is an index that measures how happy people are.It is also a tool that measures the levels of economic development and people'slivelihood and happiness in a country or region.

Embroidery, with at least two or three thousand years of history, is one of the Chinese traditional folk arts and crafts. Since most embroiderers are women, it's also called "women's needlework". Embroidery has been much-loved by the Chinese people. It can be used to beautify clothing and things. For example, clothes, quilts, pillowcases etc. can be embroidered withbeautiful designs, or a piece of embroidery can be made for a special ornament. There are four most famous types of embroidery in China: Suxiu from Suzhou, Yuexiu from Guangdong, Xiangxiu from Hunan, and Shuxiu from Sichuan, each having its own style and theme. Among the four, Suzhou embroidery has enjoyed the highest reputation.Unit 8 Human rights vs. Animal rightsText A Animals or children?-A scientist’s choice understanding the text:1. He became a children’s doctor because of this love for children and his strong desire to keep them healthy.2. He is thought of having no moral compass: He tortures innocent animals for his career advancement and his experiments having nothing to do with medicine.3. The public barely watches, convinced that the issue has no significance to them, while the senator and politicians continue to give way to the lobbying of animal rights activists4. The author does not really admit their mistake, but the tone is apparently ironic, criticizing that the physicians were too soft to respond to the animal rights activists.5. Life is cruel to both animals and human beings . if the physician don’t create an animal model of the problem, they have to do experiments on human beings, or the medical knowledge will remain static.6. Drugs to cure infection will remain undiscovered, surgical and diagnostic techniques will remain undeveloped, and fundamental biological processes will remain mysteries.7. Because protection from serious sickness and drugs as well as most complex surgical procedures were initially developed in animals instead of human beings8. If the more radical members of this movement are successful in threateningfurther research, their efforts will bring about a tragedy that will cost thelives of many human beings.

Unit 2The humanities: Out of date?1When the going gets tough, the tough take accounting.When the job market worsens, many students calculate they can't major in English or history.They have to study something that boosts their prospects of landing a job.2The data show that as students have increasingly shouldered the ever-rising cost of tuition, they have defected from the study of the humanities and toward applied science and "hard" skills that they bet will lead to employment.In other words, a college education is more and more seen as a means for economic betterment rather than a means for human betterment.This is a trend that is likely to persist and even accelerate.3Over the next few years, as labor markets struggle, the humanities will probably continue their long slide in succession.There already has been a nearly 50 percent decline in the portion of liberal arts majors over the past generation, and it is logical to think that the trend is bound to continue or even accelerate.Once the dominant pillars of university life, the humanities now play little roles when students take their college tours.These days, labs are more vivid and compelling than libraries.4Here, please allow me to stand up for and promote the true value that the humanities add to people's lives.Since ancient times, people have speculated about the mystery of those inner forces that drive some people to greatness and others to self-destruction. This inner drive has been called many things over the centuries.The famous psychologist,Sigmund Freud, called it the "unconscious mind" or, more familiarly, "instinct".5From the beginning of time, this inner aspect of our being, this drive that can be constructive or destructive, has captured our imagination.The stories of this amazing struggle have formed the basis of cultures the world over.Historians,architects, authors, philosophers and artists have captured the words, images and meanings of this inner struggle in the form of story, music, myth, painting, architecture, sculpture,landscape and traditions.These men and women developed artistic "languages" that help us understand these aspirations and also educate generations.This fertile body of work from ancient times, the very foundation of civilization, forms the basis of study of the humanities.6Studying the humanities improves our ability to read and write.No matter what we do in life, we will have a huge advantage if we can read complex ideas and understand their meaning.We will have a bright career if we are the person in the office who can write a clear and elegant analysis of those ideas!7Studying the humanities makes us familiar with the language of emotion and the creative process.In an information economy, many people have the ability to produce a useful product such as a new MP3 player.Yet, very few people have the ability to create a spectacular brand: the iPod.Most importantly, studying thehumanities invests us with great insight and self-awareness,there by releasing our creative energy and talent in a positive and constructive manner.8Perhaps the best argument in favor of the humanities is the scope of possibilities that are widely open to us.Did you know that James Cameron, world-famous director of the movie,Titanic, graduated with a degree in the humanities?So did Sally Ride, the first woman in space.So did actors Bruce Lee,Gwyneth Paltrow,Renee Zellweger and Matt Damon.Dr.Harold Varmus, who won a Nobel Prize for Medicine, studied the humanities.Even Michael Eisner, Chairman of the Disney Company, majored in the humanities. Famous people who studied the humanities make a long list indeed.It's easy to see that the humanities can prepare us for many different careers and jobs we can undertake, whether medicine, business, science or entertainment.If we study only mathematics, it's likely we will be a candidate only for jobs as a mathematician.If we include studying the humanities, we can make breakthroughs on many barriers and are limited only by our effort and imagination.9Of course, nowadays, if we study the humanities alone, we are liable to miss many opportunities.Each one of us needs to become as technically and professionally skilled as possible to help meet the needs of modern life.In fact, increasingly a pairing of technical knowledge and inner insight is seen as the ideal in the establishment of a career.If I were the Dean of Admissions at a medical school and two people applied to our school, both having the required basic scientific courses, one a philosophy major and the other solely a pre-med student, the philosophy applicant would be chosen.10In summary, the humanities help to create well-rounded human beings with insight and understanding of the passions, hopes and dreams common to all humanity.The humanities, the ancient timeless reservoir of knowledge, teach us to see things differently and broaden our horizons.They are as useful and relevant in our modern age as they have always been.Doesn't it make sense to spend some time in the company of the humanities, our outstanding and remarkable treasure of knowledge?Who knows how famous YOU might become!Translation人文学科:过时了吗?1 当形势变得困难时,强者会去选学会计。

Unit 1 Language in missionText A An impressive English lessonEx.1 Understanding the text1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules.2、The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account。
however, what the student could do was only one single utterance :“whoa!”without any any specific comment.3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language.4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with.5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs.6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before.7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary.8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son。

U2 AA child's clutter awaits an adult's return儿时百宝箱老大归家梦I watch her back her new truck out of the driveway. The vehicle is too large, too expensive. She'd refused to consider a practical car with good gas efficiency and easy to park. It's because of me, I think. She bought it to show me that she could. 我看着她在车道上倒着她的新卡车。
车太大,而且太贵。
她就是不愿意考虑买辆开起来省油、停起来省心的实用型汽车。
我想,原因在我。
她买这辆车就是为了让我看看她的能耐。
"I'm 18," she'd told me so often that my teeth ached. "I am an adult!"“我18 岁了,”她经常这样对我说,以至于听得我牙都疼了。
“我是成年人了!”I thought, is that true? Just yesterday you watched some cartoons. What changed between yesterday and today?我心想,真的吗?昨天你还在看动画片呢。
今天和昨天又能有多大的变化?Today she's gone, off to be an adult far away from me. I'm glad she's gone. It means she made it, and that I'm finally free of 18 years of responsibilities. And yet I wonder if she could take good care of herself.今天她走了,远离我去寻求成年人的独立。
我很高兴她离开了。
这意味着她成功了,而我也终于可以从18 年的责任中脱身了。
但是我还是担心她能不能照顾好自己。
She left a mess. Her bathroom is an embarrassment of damp towels, rusted shaving blades, hair in the sink, and nearly empty tubes of toothpaste. I bring a box of big black garbage bags upstairs. Eye shadow, face cream, nail polish - all go into the trash. I dump drawers, sweep shelves clear and clean the sink. When I am finished, it is as neat and impersonal as a hotel bathroom.她留下的是一片狼藉。
她的卫生间真是凌乱不堪,有没拧干的毛巾,有生锈的剃刀片,散落在面盆里的头发,还有几支快挤空了的牙膏。
我拿了一盒大号的黑色垃圾袋上了楼。
眼影、面霜、指甲油——这些统统扔进垃圾袋。
我把抽屉清空,把架子打扫干净,还把面盆擦洗干净。
我打扫完后,卫生间就像酒店里的那样井井有条,丝毫没有人情味儿。
In her bedroom I find mismatched socks under her bed and purple pants on the closet floor. Desk drawers are filled with school papers, filed by year and subject. 在她的卧室里,我发现床下有不配对的袜子,壁橱底板上扔着紫色的裤子。
书桌的抽屉里满是学校的卷子,按照年份和科目归了类。
I catch myself reading through poems and essays, admiring high scores on tests and reading her name, printed or typed neatly in the upper right-hand corner of each paper. I pack the desk contents into a box. Six months, I think. I will give her six months to collect her belongings, and then I will throw them all away. That is fair. Grown-ups pay for storage.我发现自己竟然在翻看她的诗歌和作文,欣赏着考卷上的高分,端详着每张考卷右上角她用印刷体工工整整书写的或是打印的她的名字。
我把书桌里的东西收拾到一个盒子里。
六个月,我心想。
如果过了六个月她还不来拿她的东西,我就会把它们一股脑儿全扔了。
这算讲道理了吧。
成年人存放东西是要付费的。
I have to pause at the books. Comic books, teen fiction, romantic novels, historical novels, and textbooks. A lifetime of reading; each book beloved. I want to be practical, to stuff them in paper sacks for the used bookstore. But I love books asmuch as she does, so I stack them onto a single bookshelf to deal with later.轮到整理书的时候,我有些犹豫了。
连环漫画册、青少年小说、言情小说、历史小说,还有课本。
阅读是一辈子的事;每本书都是心爱之物。
原本我想现实一点,把这些书塞进纸袋,然后送到旧书店。
但是我跟女儿一样爱书如命,于是我把她的这些书归置到一个单独的书架上,等日后再作处理。
I go for her clothes. Dresses, sweaters, and shoes she hasn't worn since seventh grade are placed into garbage bags. I am a plague of locusts emptying the closet. Two piles grow to clumsy heights: one for charity, the other trash.接下来,我着手整理她的衣服。
那些她从七年级起就不再穿的裙子、毛衣和鞋子都被装进了垃圾袋。
就像蝗虫洗劫一样,我清空了壁橱。
理出高高的、乱蓬蓬的两大堆东西:一堆捐给慈善机构,另一堆扔掉。
There are more shoes, stuffed animals, large and small posters, hair bands, and pink hair curlers. The job grows larger the longer I am at it. How can one girl collect so much in only 18 years?可是还有更多的鞋子、填充动物玩具、大大小小的招贴画、发箍和粉红色的卷发夹。
我越理,要理的东西就越多。
一个小姑娘怎么能在短短的18 年里收集了这么多东西?I stuff the garbage bags until the plastic strains. I haul them down the stairs, two bags at a time. Donations to charity go into the trunk of my car; trash goes to the curb. I'm earning myself sweat and sore shoulders.我把东西往垃圾袋里塞,直到塑料袋快要被撑破了。
我把垃圾袋拽下楼梯,一次拽两个。
要捐给慈善机构的都放在我汽车的后备箱里;要扔掉的都放在路边。
我弄得浑身是汗,肩膀酸痛。
She left the bedroom a ridiculous mess, the comforter on the floor, the sheets tossed aside. I strip off the comforter, blanket, sheets, and pillows. Once she starts feeding coins into laundry machines, she'll appreciate the years of clean clothes I've provided for free.她把卧室弄得乱到匪夷所思的地步,盖被掉在地板上,床单掀到一边。
我把床罩、毯子、床单和枕套都拆了下来。
等到她开始投币洗衣的那一天,她就会感激我这些年来为她无偿提供的干净衣服了。
I will turn her room into a crafts room. Or create the fancy guest room I've always wanted.我打算把她的房间改作手工室,或者改成一间我一直想要的漂亮客房。
I turn the bed over. A large brown envelope is marked "DO NOT THROW AWAY". I open it. More papers. I dump the contents onto the floor. There are old family photographs, letters, greeting cards, and love notes from us to her. There are comics clipped from newspapers and magazines. Every single item in this envelope has passed from our hands to hers. These are all things that we gave her. Suddenly, I feel very emotional.我把床翻了个个儿,只见一个棕色的大信封,上面写着“不要扔掉”。
