UNIT 1As we are at the start of the course, this seems a good moment to offer some advice on how to make the task of learning English easier.课程开始之际，就如何使学习英语的任务更容易提出一些建议似乎正当其时。

Some Strategies for Learning EnglishLearning English is by no means easy. It takes great diligence and prolonged effort.学习英语绝非易事。

它需要刻苦和长期努力。

Nevertheless, while you cannot expect to gain a good command of English without sustained hard work, there are various helpful learning strategies you can employ to make the task easier. Here are some of them.虽然不经过持续的刻苦努力便不能期望精通英语，然而还是有各种有用的学习策略可以用来使这一任务变得容易一些。

以下便是其中的几种。

1. Do not treat all new words in exactly the same way. Have you ever complained about your memory because you find it simply impossible to memorize all the new words you are learning? But, in fact, it is not your memory that is at fault. If you cram your head with too many new words at a time, some of them are bound to be crowded out. What you need to do is to deal with new words in different ways according to how frequently they occur in everyday use. While active words demand constant practice and useful words must be committed to memory, words that do not often occur in everyday situations require just a nodding acquaintance. You will find concentrating on active and useful words the most effective route to enlarging your vocabulary.1. 不要以完全同样的方式对待所有的生词。

现代大学英语精读1 UNIT8 The Kindness of Strangers 课文翻译

20141018第八单元Translation of Text A陌生人的仁慈1 一个夏天，我正驱车从我的家乡加利福尼亚州的塔霍湖市前往新奥尔良。

行驶到沙漠中部时，我遇到了一个正站在路边的年轻人。

他竖起拇指请求搭车，另一只手里握着一个汽油罐。

我径直从他身边开了过去。

在这个国家曾经有一个时期，如果你对一个需要帮助的人置之不理，那你就被认为是一个愚蠢的人。

但现在，你帮助了别人，你就是一个愚蠢的人。

由于到处隐藏着歹徒、吸毒成瘾者、强奸犯和小偷，“我不想惹麻烦”就成了民族的箴言2 驶过了几个州后，我仍然在想着那个搭便车的旅行者。

把他束手无策留在沙漠并没有让我太烦扰。

让我烦扰的是，我是多么轻易的就下了这个决定。

我甚至都没有把脚从加速器上抬起来。

3 还会有人再停下来么？我很想知道。

我想起布兰奇-杜包尔斯的著名的台词“我总是非常依赖陌生人的仁慈”。

如今还会有人依赖陌生人的仁慈检验此事的一个方法就是让一个人不带钱，只依靠美国同胞的好心，从一个海岸到另一个海岸去旅行。

他将发现什么样的美国人呢？谁将会给他食物、提供住处、载他一路？4 这个想法激起我的好奇心。

5 在我步入37岁的那周，我意识到在我的一生中还从未冒过险。

因此我决定身无分文的从太平洋到大西洋旅行。

在这个金钱万能的国家，这将会是一次不花钱的旅行。

我将只接受别人提供的搭车、食物以及休息场所。

我最终的目的地将是被卡罗莱纳周的恐怖角，这是我整个旅行要克服的所有恐惧的一个象征。

6 1994年9月6日，我早早的起了床，动身前往金门桥。

我背上背了50镑重的行李和一个向过往的车辆展示我此行目的地的标牌“美国”。

7 六周的时间，我免费搭车82次，穿越了14个省4223英里。

当我旅行时，人们总是提醒我关于其他地方的事情。

在蒙大拿州，他们告诉我要提防怀俄明州的牛仔。

在内布拉斯加州，他们说艾奥瓦州的人不像他们那么友好。

然而，我所到之处受到的是善意的款待。

我对于人们欣然帮助一个陌生人而感到吃惊，甚至当这些行为与他们自己的利益背道而驰的时候。

新视野大学英语第三版第一册UNIT8课文翻译UNIT8TESTA友情中的性别差异：矛盾还是不矛盾1想到我的好朋友们，我就会用看电影的眼光看待他们。

对男性和女性的拍摄手法是完全不同的。

我对女性朋友的“电影式”记忆是开放的、亲密无间的。

我们交谈着，像磁铁般互相吸引着。

她们直视我的眼睛，她们善解人意，她们用心倾听。

相比较而言，我对男性朋友的记忆是完全不同的另一部影片。

那是一部动作片或者冒险片！对话不多。

习惯性的行动，或者说一系列的动作，弥补了对话及坦诚倾诉方面的不足。

2我回想起我儿时最早的朋友唐纳德。

那时候我还住在欧洲，我家房子附近有一辆战后遗弃的德国旧卡车。

没有轮子，没有挡风玻璃，没有车门。

但是方向盘还完好无损。

我和唐纳德一直开着这辆卡车——也就是我们的“飞机”——“飞往”美国。

即使到现在，我还记得我们每天飞行的那个套路。

我们飞过欧洲，飞越大西洋，去执行救援任务。

那时候的我们单纯，形影不离，有着最好的朋友之间才有的那种高度安全感。

自然，对于我们彼此间显而易见的感情，我们从未吐露过一个字，一切尽付诸行动。

3每天，当我们飞翔在大西洋上空时，总是不可避免地会出现那精彩的时刻：“发动机故障！”我总会对着麦克风大叫，“我们必须跳出去。

”“啊－啊－啊－啊－啊－！”唐纳德发出像发动机出现故障时的声音。

他看了我一眼，说：“我不会游泳啊!”“别怕！我会把你拉上岸的。

”我总是勇敢地回答。

于是，说完这些后，我们两人都从卡车里扑到满是尘土的街道上。

我在尘土中游泳。

唐纳德淹没在尘土中，一边咳嗽，一边大叫：“有鲨鱼！”但我总是会把他救上来。

第二天，我们交换角色，那精心策划的一幕又重复上演。

“我不会游泳啊！”我会喊道，而唐纳德就会来救我。

我俩数百次地把对方从必死的境地中救出，直到最终有一天我家真的要去美国了。

我和唐纳德在火车站呆呆地站着，准备道别。

我们不知道该说些什么，这次我们谁也救不了谁。

于是，当火车驶离时，我俩只是默默地流泪。

你们所取得的成就是你们自己多年努力的结果，也是你们的父母和老师们多年努力的结果。

在这所大学里，我们承诺将使你们学有所成。

2在欢迎你们到来的这一刻，我想起自己高中毕业时的情景，还有妈妈为我和爸爸拍的合影。

妈妈吩咐我们：“姿势自然点。

” “等一等,”爸爸说，“把我递给他闹钟的情景拍下来。

”在大学期间，那个闹钟每天早晨叫醒我。

至今它还放在我办公室的桌子上。

3让我来告诉你们一些你们未必预料得到的事情。

你们将会怀念以前的生活惯，怀念父母曾经提醒你们要刻苦研究、取得佳绩。

你们可能因为高中生活终于结束而喜极而泣，你们的父母也可能因为终于不用再给你们洗衣服而喜极而泣！但是要记住：未来是建立在过去扎实的基础上的。

4对你们而言，接下来的四年将会是无与伦比的一段时光。

在这里，你们拥有丰富的资源：有来自全国各地的有趣的学生，有学识渊博又充满爱心的老师，有综合性藏书楼，有完备的运动设施，还有针对分歧兴趣的学生社团——从文科社团到理科社团、到社区服务等等。

我想鼓励你们充分利用这一非凡的经历，并用你们的劲头和热忱去收获这一机会所带来的丰硕成果。

5有这么多课程可供选择，你可能会不知所措。

你不可能选修所有的课程，但是要尽可能体验更多的课程！大学里有良多事情可做可学，每件事情都会为你提供分歧视角来审视世界。

如果我只能给你们一条选课发起的话，那就是：挑战本人！不要以为你早就了解本人对什么样的范畴最感兴趣。

选择一些你从未接触过的范畴的课程。

这样，你不仅会变得愈加博学，而且更有可能发现一个你未曾想到的、能成绩你未来的爱好。

一个绝佳的例子就是古装设计师XXX，她最初学的是艺术史。

随着时间的推移，XXX把艺术史研究和对古装的热爱联合起来，并将其转化为对设计的热忱，从而使她成为全球闻名的设计师。

Standing against the wall was a big, black bicycle with balloon tires. I recognized it instantly. It was the same second-hand bike I'd been admiring in a Baltimore Street shop window.

Unit 8 Daydream a Little课文翻译大学英语三

Unit 8 Daydream a LittleEugene RaudseppDaydreaming has always had reputation, but now scientific research has revealed that daydreaming may actually improve your mental health and creativity. It can even help you achieve your desired goals."Daydreaming again, Barb? You'll never amount to anything if you spend your time that way! Can't you find something useful to do?" Many youngsters have heard words like those from their parents. And until recently this hostile attitude towards daydreaming was the most common one. Daydreaming was viewed as a waste of time. Or it was considered and unhealthy escape from real life and its duties. But now some people are taking a fresh look at daydreaming. Some think it may be a very healthy thing to do.Attitudes towards daydreaming are changing in much the same way that attitudes towards night dreaming have changed. Once it was thought that nighttime dreams interfered with our needed rest. But then researchers tried interrupting the dreams of sleepers. They learned that sleepers who aren't allowed to dream lost the benefits of rest. They become tense and anxious. They become irritable. They have trouble concentrating. Their mental health is temporarily damaged. To feel well again, they must be allowed to dream.Now researchers are finding that daydreaming may also be important to mental health. Daydreaming, they tell us, is a good means of relaxation. But its benefits go beyond this. A number of psychologists have conducted experiments and have reached some surprising conclusions.Dr. Joan T. Freyberg has concluded that daydreaming contributes to intellectual growth. It also improves concentration, attention span, and the ability to get along with others, she says. In an experiment with school children, this same researcher found that daydreaming led the children to pay more attention to detail. They had more happy feelings. They worked together better. Another researcher reported that daydreaming seemed to produce improved self-control and creative abilities.But that's only part of the story. The most remarkable thing about daydreaming may be its usefulness in shaping our future lives as we want them to be. Industrialist Henry J. Kaiser believed that much of his success was due to the positive use of daydreaming. He maintained that "you can imagine your future." Florence Nightingale dreamed of becoming a nurse. The young Thomas Edison pictured himself as an inventor. For these notable achievers, it appears that their daydreams came true.Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick believed that the way we picture ourselves is often the way we turn out. He offered this advice: "Hold a picture of yourself … in your mind's eye, and you will be drawn toward it. Picture yourself vividly as defeated, and that will make victory impossible. Picture yourself as winning, and that will contribute immeasurably to success. Do not picture yourself as anything, and you will drift ……"The experiences of some athletes seem to confirm this belief. For instance, John Uelses, a former pole-vaulting champion, used daydreaming techniques before each meet. He would imagine himself winning. He would vividly picture himself clearing the bar at a certain height. He would go over all the details in his mind. He would picture the stadium and the crowds. He'd even imagine the smell of the grass and the earth. He said that this exercise of the imagination left memory traces in his mind that would later help his actual performance.Why would a mental vision of success help produce real success? Dr. Maxwel Maltz, a surgeon and author, say this: "Your nervous system cannot tell the difference between an imagined experience and real experience. In either case it reacts automatically to information that you give it …… It reacts appropriately to what you think or imagine to be true."He believes that purposeful daydreaming builds new "memories" in the brain. These positive memories improve a person's self-image. And self-image has an important effect on a person's action and accomplishments.Can you use purposeful daydreaming to shape your own future? Why not try? Here is how those who believe in creative daydreaming recommend going about it. Choose a time when you can be alone and undisturbed. Close your eyes, to permit your imagination to soar more freely. Many people find that they get best results by pretending that they are sitting before a large screen. They project the desired image of themselves onto that screen.Now picture yourself ——as vividly as possible ——the way you want to be. Remember to picture your desired goals as if you had already attained them. Go over all the details of this picture. See them clearly and sharply. Impress them strongly on your memory. The resulting memory traces will supposedly start affecting your everyday life. They will help lead you to the attainment to your goals.Of course daydreaming is no substitute for hard work. If it's athletic achievement you want, you also have to get lots of practice in your sport. You have to work hard to develop skills. If it's school success you're after, you can't neglect studying Daydreaming alone can't turn you into your heart's desire. But in combination with the more usual methodsof self-development, it might make a critical difference. It could be the difference between becoming merely good at something and becoming a champion.If what researchers are saying is true, a life lived without fantasies and daydreams isn't as rich and rewarding as life can be. So they suggest setting aside a few minutes each day for daydreaming. By so doing, you may improve your physical and mental well-being. By taking a ten-or fifteen-minute "vacation" into the realm of imagination each day, you may add much to the excitement and enjoyment of your life. And who knows: You might see your own daydreams come true.做点白日梦“巴勃，你又在做白日梦啦？如果你那样消磨时间，你将一事无成！你就不能找点儿有用的事做做？”许多年轻人都听父亲讲过类似的话，而且直到最近，对待白日梦的这种敌视态度还是非常常见的。

大学英语精读：第一册UNIT8

A young boy faces the impossible task of trying to soften the blow of tragic mews.You Go Your Way, I'll Go Mine The messenger got off his bicycle in front of the house of Mrs. Rosa Sandoval. He went to the door and knocked gently. He knew almost immediately that someone was inside the house. He could not hear anything, but he was sure the knock was bringing someone to the door and he was most eager to see who this person would be —— his woman named Rosa Sandoval who was now to heat of murder in the world and to feel it in herself. The door was not a long time opening, but there was no hurry in the way it moved on its hinges. The movement of the door was as if, whoever she was, she and nothing in the world to fear. Then the door was open, and there she was. To Homer the Mexican woman was beautiful. He could see that she had been patient all her life, so that now, after years of it, her lips were set in a gentle and saintly smile. But like all people who never receive telegrams the appearance of a messenger at the front door is full of terrible implication. Homer knew that Mrs. Rosa Sandoval was shocked to see him. Her first word was the first word of all surprise. She said "Oh," as if instead of a messenger she had thought of opening the door to someone she had know a long time and would be pleased to sit down with. Before she spoke again she studied Homer's eyes and Homer Knew that she knew the message was not a welcome one. "You have a telegram?" she said. It wasn't Homer's fault. His work was to deliver telegrams. Even so, it seemed to him that he was part of the whole mistake. He felt awkward and almost as if he alone were responsible for what had happened. At the same time he wanted to come right out and say, "I'm only a messenger, Mrs. Sandoval, I'm very sorry I must bring you a telegram like this, but it is only because it is my work to do so." "Who is it for?" the Mexican woman said. "Mrs. Rosa Sandoval, 1129 G Street." Homer said. He extended the telegram to the Mexican woman, but she would not touch it. "Are you Mrs. Sandoval?" Homer said. "Please," the woman said. "Please come in. I cannot read English. I am Mexican. I read only La Prensa which comes from Mexico City." She paused a moment and looked at the boy standing awkwardly as near the door as he could be and still be inside the house. "Please," she said, "what does the telegram say?" "Mrs. Sandoval," the messenger said, "the telegram says ——" But now the woman interrupted him. "But you must open the telegram and read it to me," she said. "You have not opened it." "Yes, ma'am," Homer said as if he were speaking to a school teacher who had just corrected him. He opened the telegram with nervous fingers. The Mexican woman stooped to pick up the torn envelope, and tried to smooth it out. As she did so she said, "Who sent the telegram —— my son Juan Domingo?" "No, ma'am." Homer said. "The telegram is from the War Department." "War Department?" the Mexican woman said. "Mrs. Sandoval," Homer said swiftly, "your son is dead. Maybe it's a mistake, Everybody makes a mistake, Mrs. Sandoval. Maybe it wasn't your son. Maybe it was somebody else. The telegram says it was Juan Domingo. But maybe the telegram is wrong," The Mexican woman pretended not to hear. "Oh, do not be afraid," she said. "Come inside. Come inside. I will bring you candy." She took the boy's arm and brought him to the table at the center of the room and there she made him sit. "All boys like candy," she said. "I will bring you candy." She went into another room and soon returned with an old chocolate candy box. She opened the box at the table and in it Homer saw a strange kind of candy. "Here," she said. "Eat this candy. All boys like candy." Homer took a piece of the candy from the box, put it into his mouth, and tried to chew. "You would not bring me a bad telegram," she said. "You are a good boy —— like my little Juanito when he was a little boy. Eat another piece." And she made the messenger take another piece of the candy. Homer sat chewing the dry candy while the Mexican woman talked. "It is our own candy," she said, "from cactus. I made it for my Juanito when he come home, but you eat it. You are my boy, too." Now suddenly she began to sob, holding herself in as if weeping were a disgrace. Homer wanted to get up and run, but he knew he would stay. He even thought he might stay the rest of his life. He just didn't know what else to do to try to make the woman less unhappy, and if she had asked him to take the place of her son, he would not have been able to refuse, because he would not have known how. He got to his feet, as if by standing he meant to begin correcting what could not be corrected and then he knew the foolishness of this intention and became more awkward than ever. In his heart he was saying over and over again, "What can I do? What the hell can I do? I'm only the messenger."
