<p1>Learning a foreign language was one of the most difficult yet most <2>rewarding</2> experiences of my life.<p2>Although at times learning a language was <3>frustrating</3>, it was well worth the effort.<p3>My experience with learning a foreign language began in <4>junior</4> middle school, when I took my first English class.I had a kind and patient teacher who often praised all of the students.<p4>Because of this <5>positive</5> method, I eagerly answered all the questions I could, never worrying much about making mistakes.<p5>I was at the top of my class for two years.When I went to <6>senior</6> middle school, I was eager to continue studying English; however, my experience in senior middle school was very different from before.<p6>While my <7>former</7> teacher had been patient with all of the students, my new teacher quickly punished those who gave incorrect answers.Whenever we answered incorrectly, she pointed a long stick at us and, shaking it up and down, shouted, "No! No! No!"<p7>It didn't take me long to lose my eagerness to answer questions.<p8>Not only did I lose my joy in answering questions, but I also lost my desire to say anything at all in English.However, that state didn't last long.When I went to college, I learned that all students were required to take an English course.<p9><8>Unlike</8> my senior middle school teacher, my college English teachers were patient and kind, and none of them carried long, pointed sticks!<p10>The situation was far from perfect, though.As our classes were very large, I was only able to answer a couple of questions in each class period.Also, after a few weeks of classes, I noticed there were many students who spoke much better than I did.<p11>I began to feel <9>intimidated</9>.So, once again, although for different reasons, I was afraid to speak.It seemed my English was going to stay at the same level forever.<p12>That was the situation until a couple of years later when I was offered an <10>opportunity</10> to study English through an <11>online</11> course.The <12>communication</12> <13>medium</13> was a computer, a phone line, and a <14>modem</14>.<p13>I soon got <15>access</15> to the necessary equipment, learned how to use the technology from a friend and <16>participated</16> in the <17>virtual</17> classroom 5 to 7 days a week.<p14>Online learning is not easier than regular classroom study;it requires a lot of time, <18>commitment</18> and <19>discipline</19> to keep up with the flow of the course.<p15>I worked hard to meet the <20>minimum</20> standards set by the course and to complete <21>assignments</21> on time.I practiced all the time.I carried a little dictionary with me everywhere I went, as well as a notebook in which I listed any new words I heard.<p16>I made many, sometimes <23>embarrassing</23>, mistakes.<p17>Once in a while I cried out of <24>frustration</24>, and sometimes I felt like giving up.<p18>But I didn't feel intimidated by students who spoke faster than I did because I took all the time I needed to think out my ideas and wrote a reply before <25>posting</25> it on the screen. <p19>Then, one day I realized I could understand just about everything I came across, and most importantly, I could "say" anything I wanted to in English.<p20>Although I was still making many mistakes and was <27>continually</27> learning new ways to say things, I had finally <28>reaped</28> the <29>benefits</29> of all of my hard work.<p21>Learning a foreign language has been a most trying experience for me, but one that I wouldn't trade for anything.<p22>Not only did learning another language teach me the value of hard work, but it also gave me <30>insights</30> into another culture, and my mind was opened to new ways of seeing things. The most wonderful result of having learned a foreign language was that I could <31>communicate</31> with many more people than before.Talking with people is one of my <32>favorite</32> activities, so being able to speak a new language lets me meet new people, participate in conversations, and form new, unforgettable friendships.<p23>Now that I speak a foreign language, instead of staring into space when English is being spoken,I can participate and make friends.<p24>I am able to reach out to others and bridge the <33>gap</33> between my language and culture and theirs.学习外语是我一生中最艰苦也是最有意义的经历之一。

记住,虚拟课堂里老师看不见学生。 这就意味学生必须直接明了地表达自己的看法和要求。 如果碰到技术方面的问题,或在理解课程中遇到困难,必须大胆说出来,否则任何人都无从 知晓问题所在。 如果某人不理解某个问题,或许别人也有同样的问题。 如果有哪个学生能解决,他(她)也许就会帮助你。 学生在给他人解释问题时,自己对该问题的认识也加深了。
Unit 1 B
虽然常规的学校依然存在,但虚拟课堂在今天的教学领域中起着重要的作用。 随着学生就业机会的迅速增多,越来越多不同年龄层的人开始意识到这种在家就学的网上学 习方式。 然而,网络学生需要具备一些特别的素质才能取得成功。 以下是网上学生要取得成功必备的一些理想素质。
1.与人分享生活、工作及学习经验,这些是网上学习的一部分。
7. 跟上课程进度。
网上学习通常是循序渐进的,要求学生专心投入。 与网络课程保持同步,并按时完成所有功课至关重要。 一旦落后就很难赶上。 学生要有成功的欲望,而且也要渴望这种经历。 老师可能会与学生面对面交流,提供帮助并提醒他们跟上进度的必要性。
正如许多优秀教师并不能有效地用网络辅助教学一样,并不是所有学生都具备在网上学习中 取得成功所需的素质。 具备上述素质的人通常能够成为优秀的网络学生。 一旦拥有这些素质,网上学习说不定将是你最有价值的发现之一。
“我喜欢这种音乐,爸爸。这是我最喜欢的。 您听一下吧,您肯定会喜欢的。” 桑迪伸手把音乐开得更响。
“别,别开那么响,我受不了。 把收音机音量调低点,这样我和你妈妈就听不到了。 我敢肯定,那音乐既伤你的耳朵,又伤你的大脑。”
桑迪走进浴室,打开淋浴喷头。 然后她抓起香皂,浑身上下洗个遍,连头发也洗了。
淋浴后,桑迪梳了梳头发,穿上一件旧的绿色圆领衫和一条牛仔裤。 接着她化好妆,走进了厨房。 和往常一样,她不知道早餐该吃什么,便抓了杯牛奶,站在洗涤槽旁吃烤面包。 就在此时,她妈妈简走进了厨房。
新视野大学英语(第二版)读写教程 第一单元 课文翻译
Unit 1 Section A 时间观念强的美国人Para. 1 美国人认为没有人能停止不前。
如果你不求进取,你就会落伍。
这种态度造就了一个投身于研究、实验和探索的民族。
时间是美国人注意节约的两个要素之一,另一个是劳力。
Para. 2 人们一直说:“只有时间才能支配我们。
”人们似乎是把时间当作一个差不多是实实在在的东西来对待的。
我们安排时间、节约时间、浪费时间、挤抢时间、消磨时间、缩减时间、对时间的利用作出解释;我们还要因付出时间而收取费用。
时间是一种宝贵的资源,许多人都深感人生的短暂。
时光一去不复返。
我们应当让每一分钟都过得有意义。
Para. 3 外国人对美国的第一印象很可能是:每个人都匆匆忙忙——常常处于压力之下。
城里人看上去总是在匆匆地赶往他们要去的地方,在商店里他们焦躁不安地指望店员能马上来为他们服务,或者为了赶快买完东西,用肘来推搡他人。
白天吃饭时人们也都匆匆忙忙,这部分地反映出这个国家的生活节奏。
工作时间被认为是宝贵的。
Para. 3b 在公共用餐场所,人们都等着别人吃完后用餐,以便按时赶回去工作。
你还会发现司机开车很鲁莽,人们推搡着在你身边过去。
你会怀念微笑、简短的交谈以及与陌生人的随意闲聊。
不要觉得这是针对你个人的,这是因为人们非常珍惜时间,而且也不喜欢他人“浪费”时间到不恰当的地步。
Para. 4 许多刚到美国的人会怀念诸如商务拜访等场合开始时的寒暄。
他们也会怀念那种一边喝茶或咖啡一边进行的礼节性交流,这也许是他们自己国家的一种习俗。
他们也许还会怀念在饭店或咖啡馆里谈生意时的那种轻松悠闲的交谈。
一般说来,美国人是不会在如此轻松的环境里通过长时间的闲聊来评价他们的客人的,更不用说会在增进相互间信任的过程中带他们出去吃饭,或带他们去打高尔夫球。
既然我们通常是通过工作而不是社交来评估和了解他人,我们就开门见山地谈正事。
因此,时间老是在我们心中的耳朵里滴滴答答地响着。
Para. 5 因此,我们千方百计地节约时间。
大学英语读写教程第一册Reading Alound
21世纪大学英语读写教程第一册Reading Aloud及翻译Unit 1Reading Aloud:How do A students like these do it? Brains aren't the only answer. The most gifted students do not necessarily perform best in exams. Knowing how to make the most of one's abilities counts for much more.Hard work isn't the whole story either. Some of these high-achieving students actually put in fewer hours than their lower-scoring classmates. The students at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can easily learn. Here, according to education experts and students themselves, are the secrets of A students.Translation: 像他们这样的优等生是如何做到这一点的呢?脑子好使并不是唯一的答案。
最有天赋的学生未必在考试中取得最好的成绩。
懂得如何充分利用自己的才能要重要得多。
学习刻苦也不能说明全部问题。
在这些成绩优秀的学生中,有些人投入的时间其实比那些分数低的同学还少。
班级中拔尖学生的成功之道在于他们掌握了一些基本的技巧,这些技巧其他人也能很容易地学到。
根据教育专家和学生们自己的叙述,优等生成功的奥秘有以下几点。

Communicating with native English speakers is a very rewarding experience from which we can learn a lot.4.如今,越来越多的人可以利用互联网查找他们需要的信息。
Today, more and more people have access to the Internet though which they look for the information they need.5.他要她放弃工作在家照顾孩子,但是她觉得这个要求太过分了。
He wants her to give up working and stay at home to look after the children. She feels, however, that this is too much for her.6.既然我们已经学完这门课程,就应该多做些复习。
Now that we have finished the course, we shall start doing more revision work.7. I’ll never forget the teacher who showed me that learning a foreign language could be fun and rewarding. Were it not for him, I would not be able to speak English as well as I do now.我永远都不会忘记那位老师,是他告诉我学外语是有趣的、有价值的。
新视野大学英语1读写教程Unit1 3 4课后练习汉译英参考译文
新视野大学英语1读写教程Unit1,Unit3,Unit4 课后练习汉译英参考译文:Unit1:孔子是中国历史上著名的思想家、教育家,是儒家学派(Confucianism)的创始人,被尊称为古代的“圣人”(sage)。
他的言论和生平活动记录在《论语》(The Analects)一书中。
《论语》是中国古代文化的经典著作,对后来历代的思想家、文学家、政治家产生了很大影响。
不研究《论语》,就不能真正把握中国几千年的传统文化。
孔子的很多思想,尤其是其教育思想,对中国社会产生了深远的影响。
在21世纪的今天,孔子的学说不仅受到中国人的重视,而且也越来越受到整个国际社会的重视。
Confucius was a great thinker and educator in Chinese history. He was the founder of Confucianism and was respectfully referred to as an ancient “sage”. His words and life story were recorded in The Analects. An enduring classic of ancient Chinese culture, The Analects has had a great influence on the thinkers, writers, and statesmen that came after Confucius. Without studying this book, one could hardly truly understand the thousands-of-years’ traditional Chinese culture. Much of Confucius’ thought, especially his thought on education, has had profound influence on Chinese society. In the 21st century, Confucian thought not only retains the attention of the Chinese, but it also wins an increasing attention from the international community. Unit3:中国航天业开创于1956年。

Unit1 奔向更加光明的未来1 下午好!作为校长,我非常自豪地欢迎你们来到这所大学。
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习惯,怀念父母曾经提醒你们要刻苦学习、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,有综合性图书馆,有完备的运动设施,还有针对不同兴趣的学生社团—-从文科社团到理科社团、到社区服务等等。

你们要学着习惯点灯熬油,学着结交充满魅力的人,学着去追求新的爱好。
我想鼓励你们充分利用这一特殊的经历,并用你们的干劲和热情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!大学里有很多事情可做可学,每件事情都会为你提供不同视角来审视世界。
如果我只能给你们一条选课建议的话,那就是:挑战自己! 不要认为你早就了解自己对什么样的领域最感兴趣。
选择一些你从未接触过的领域的课程。
这样,你不仅会变得更加博学,而且更有可能发现一个你未曾想到的、能成就你未来的爱好。
一个绝佳的例子就是时装设计师王薇薇,她最初学的是艺术史。
随着时间的推移,王薇薇把艺术史研究和对时装的热爱结合起来,并将其转化为对设计的热情,从而使她成为全球闻名的设计师。

大学英语读写教程1课文翻译Unit 1Lesson 1: The EarthThe Earth is our home. It is the third planet from the sun in our solar system. It is the only planet known to have life. The Earth is a beautiful and diverse place, with vast oceans, towering mountains, and lush forests.The Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old. It has a diameter of about 12,742 kilometers and a circumference of around 40,075 kilometers. It is made up of several layers, including the crust, mantle, and core.The Earth rotates on its axis, which takes approximately 24 hours to complete one full rotation. This rotation gives us day and night. The Earth also orbits around the sun, completing one orbit in about 365.25 days, giving us the concept of a year.The Earth is made up of many different ecosystems. These ecosystems support a wide variety of plants, animals, and microorganisms. It is important to protect and preserve these ecosystems to maintain the delicate balance of life on Earth.The Earth's climate is constantly changing. It experiences seasons due to the tilt of its axis. It also undergoes long-term changes, such as global warming, which is primarily caused by human activities. As inhabitants of this planet, we have a responsibility to take care of the Earth. We should reduce our carbon footprint, recycle,conserve water, and protect the natural environment.

新视野大学英语第三版读写教程第一册1-8单元课文翻译读写教程01课文翻译Unit01XXX奔向更加光明的未来1下午好!作为校长,我非常自豪地欢迎你们来到这所大学。
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。
你们将自由地探索、研究新科目。
你们要学着惯点灯熬油,学着结交充满魅力的人,学着去寻求新的爱好。
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。

Unit One New Campus, New LifeⅠ. Pre-listening ActivitiesChoice 1略Choice 2There are pros and cons of living on campus.Pros Cons1. Accessibility to the school 1. Little privacy2. Increased social life 2. Limited space3. Possible low GPA (grade point average)■ScriptThere are pros and cons of living on campusPros1. Accessibility to the school. If you live on campus, you can easily walk to the classes, libraries, computer labs, cafeterias, etc. You don’t have to waste time and money on driving to school, finding a parking space, and so forth.2. Increased social life. Living on campus will allow you to meet more people and establish more friendships than living off campus. You will also usually be aware of any campus activities and how to be involved in them.Cons1. Little privacy. When living in a dorm, it can be very hard to find privacy. You have to share bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. You may never have quiet time in your dorm because there will always be something going on.2. Limited space. At most colleges, the dorm rooms are tiny. You have to limit what you bring to school, or your space will be too crowded.3. Possible low GPA (grade point average). Because dorm life is very social, your grades may be affected in a negative way. If you constantly choose hanging out with your dorm buddies over studying at the library, then your GPA will suffer.Ⅱ. Listening TasksTask 1 Understanding News ReportsNews Item One1. B2. CNews Item Two1. D2. DNews Item Three1. B 2 A 3. D■ScriptNews Item OneQuestions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.In New York City public schools, 176 different languages are spoken among the more than 1 million students.For 160,000 children, English is not their first language. New York’s Department of Education makes learning better for these students by providing dual-language programs.Students are taught in two languages, English and another one, like Russian or Chinese. Math, social studies, science and all other regular courses are taught in both languages. And they learn about the culture of the other country.Milady Baez is Deputy Chancellor of English Language Learners and Student Support. She says these dual-language programs will help children succeed in the future.“The jobs of the future require that our students know more than one language. They are going to be traveling abroad; they are going to be communicating with people from all over the world. This will open doors for them.”Questions:1. How do New York public schools make learning better for students whose first language isnot English?2. What will help children succeed in the future according to Milady Baez?News Item TwoQuestions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.A growing number of American universities are dropping the entrance exam requirement. More than 800 universities now allow students to apply without a SAT or ACT test score. The SAT and ACT are the two major college entrance tests in the United States.Fo r years, colleges have used these tests to help measure an applicant’s academic skills. But more universities are becoming “test optional”. Students who apply to test-optional schools can choose whether they want to include test scores in their applications.George Washington University in Washington D.C. is one of the latest schools to adopt a test-optional admissions policy for most of its applicants. It is the largest private university to drop the test requirement.Karen Stroud Felton is the Dean of Admissions at George Washington University. She said in a statement that the university “had concerns that students who could be successful... felt discouraged from applying if their scores were not as strong as their high school performance.”Questions:1. What is the big change of American universities according to the news?2. Which of the following statements about George Washington University is TRUEaccording to the news?News Item ThreeQuestions 1 to 3 will be based on the following news item.Almost 900,000 international students are studying in American colleges and universities today. Nearly half of this record number of foreign students are from Asia, mainly China.They are among people from other countries who now make up about 4 percent of all university students in the U.S. America has more of the world’s 4.5 million international studentsthan any other country. A new report says more than 886,000 foreign students registered at U.S. universities during the school year 2013-2014. That is an increase of eight percent over the year before. The Institute of International Education and the State Department made the report.The study also demonstrates trends over the past 15 years. It shows that since 2000, the number of international students in the U.S. has grown by 72 percent. Students from China in undergraduate programs are mainly responsible for this trend.Questions:1. How many international students in the U.S. come from Asia?2. From 2013 to 2014, how many foreign students registered at U.S. universities?3. Which country is mainly responsible for the rapid increase of international students in the U.S.since 2000?Task 2 Understanding Long ConversationsConversation One1. D2. A3. C4. B5. AConversation Two1. D2. C3. A4. B■ScriptConversation OneW: Would you like to join the V olunteers’ League?M: Am I crazy? I just quitted the Students’ Counsel. I don’t want to be as busy as before. I’v e given up a big chance of getting scholarships for that.W: No, joining the V olunteers’ League won’t take you much time. It only has activities on the weekends.M: Really? That’s good. I was just wondering about how to spend my free time on weekends.W: C ome on, you won’t regret about joining the V olunteers’ League. It’s different from other student’s clubs or unions.M: What’s the difference?W: The V olunteers’ League often offers free services for grand occasions, such as Olympic Games, World Expo. Isn’t that special?M: Not really. I’d rather join the Entrepreneurs’ Club, so my experience will be helpful when I look for jobs in the future.W: That’s also a good choice. But the Entrepreneurs’ Club just hold some boring activities, you know, speeches, competitions…M: But you can learn a lot of things from the activities and it’s related to our major.W: You can also learn a lot in the V olunteers’ League. You will have the chance to learn how to communicate, how to arrange an activity and how to cooperate with your group members. M: What activities does the V olunteers’ League have?W: We will be voluntary guides, interpreters and …M: Does that mean I have lots of chances to practice my English?W: You can say that again.M: OK, you win. Just tell me how to get enrolled for that club.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. Why does the man refuse to join the V olunteers’ League in the beginning?2. When does the V olunteers’ League have activities according to the woman?3. W hy does the woman say the V olunteers’ League is different from other clubs and unions?4. Why does the man prefer joining the Entrepreneurs’ Club?5. Why does the man decide to join the V olunteers’ League in the end?Conversation TwoW: Come in!M: Hi, Professor Hampton. It’s me, Tony again. I hope I’m not bothering you. I know how busy everyone is near the end of the semester, but...W: Have a seat, Tony. Like everyone else, I have plenty to do, but I try to keep up with my work.Now, what’s on you r mind?M: That’s it! That’s it exactly!W: I’m not following you.M: Excuse me, but you were talking about keeping up with your work, keeping on schedule.That’s my problem. I can never seem to keep up with all my responsibilities, no matter how hard I try. And next year I’d like to try working part-time for some more spending money. If I can’t manage my time, I won’t be able to do either well.W: Well, consider these tips for time management. First, don’t bite off more than you can chew.You’d better make a reasonable plan which is achievable.M: I thought I was doing that now.W:Chances are you’re not using your time efficiently, Tony. Remember, too, “work when you work, and play when you play.” Divide your day and night into two or three hour periods when you can concentrate on either studying or working. Don’t let yourself be interrupted by anyone.M: I see what you mean. A lot of times I’ll j oin my friends in going out after only an hour of studying.W:And if you plan your time week by week rather than day by day, you’ll find you have more time than you thought. Well, give it a try. I’d like to know how you handle it.M: Thanks a lot, Dr. Hampton.W:Now get back to your studies, Tony. Finals are coming.M: Thanks again, madam.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. Why is everyone busy according to Tony?2. What does Tony plan to do next year?3.

Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the conversation?Task 3 Understanding PassagesPassage OneListening for general comprehension1. Freshmen2. 15Listening for specific comprehension1. B2. D3. B4. C5. A■ScriptListening for general comprehensionFreshmen 15 is a plague that haunts the mind of all newly high school graduates. You hear of this horror tale before even stepping foot on a college campus. So what exactly is the freshmen 15? Legend says that during your freshmen year of college, you end up gaining around fifteen pounds. Is this simply a story told to scare young freshmen, or a reality?The bad news is that a noticeable weight gain does occur among college students. However, the good news is it’s not as drastic as fifteen pounds. Food served in the dining halls is laden with fats while exercise in college has become a true burden. It is difficult to schedule a workout session among the already busy schedule filled with classes, clubs, homework, and organizations. Here at USC, the professors like to pack their students with work upon work, so students can truly “eat the fruits of the knowledge tree.” For an average student, it is considered a celebration if you could simply finish all your homework on time and sleep before 2 a.m. With that said, who cares about exercise?Listening for specific comprehension1. According to the passage, what does “15” refer to?2. How is the food like in the college’s dining halls?3. Which of the following is NOT included in the students’ busy schedule according to the passage?4. How much work does the professors give to the students in USC?5. How does a student feel if he finishes homework and sleeps before 2 a.m.?Passage TwoListening for general comprehension1. taking notes2. Four suggestions are given in the passageListening for specific comprehension1. A2. C3. A4. B5. C■ScriptListening for general comprehensionIt’s necessary for a student to take notes when he attends a lecture. The notes can be readily used in the future when the student forgets or reviews something.When a student takes notes in a lecture he has to do four things.Firstly, he has to understand what’s said, as the speaker says it. He can’t stop the lecture in order to look up a new word or check an unfamiliar sentence pattern.The second thing the student has to do is to decide what’s important in the lec ture. Many lecturers pause, and speak more slowly and loudly, when they’re making an important point.The third task that faces the student is that he has to write down the important points. The student should abbreviate, write down the important words, usually nouns, sometimes verbs oradjectives, and should write one point on each line. He ought, if possible, to choose a moment to write when the lecturer isn’t giving vital information.Finally, the student’s notes must show the connections between the various points he’s noted. If he makes intelligent use of spacing and underlining, together with the use of conventional signs and the numbering of points, he’ll be able to understand the framework of the lecture more easily. Listening for specific comprehension1. Why is it necessary for a student to take notes?2. What can a student do during a lecture if there is something he can’t understand?3. What do many lectures do when they are making an important point?4. When is the right moment to write down the important points?5. What may not be helpful for a student to understand the framework of the lecture more easilyaccording to the passage?Passage ThreeListening for general comprehension1. The passage is about how to cope with a new school year.2. There are three tips mentioned in the passage.Listening for specific comprehension1. D2. A3. C4. B5. C■ScriptListening for general comprehensionHow do you approach a new school year? Do you have feelings of happiness and excitement or feelings of dread? New teachers, classes, classmates and maybe even a new school can all cause students to worry. But there are some things you can do to avoid the back-to-school blues. Become familiarWill you go to a new school this year? Then during the summer, visit your new school. Find out exactly where it is and how long it takes to get there. This will help you avoid confusion on the day.Ask friends to introduce you to a student who goes to the school. You’ll feel better knowing some there.Keep it in balanceDecide how many activities you’ll participate in, and don’t do too much. Keeping schoolwork, home life and extra activities in balance will keep your stress level low.Here’s another tip to help you prepare for the first day of s chool. Start going to bed and getting up at your normal school time two weeks before school begins. Then your body and mind will become rested and prepared for the first day.Get involvedThe best way to make new friends is to join school clubs. Choose something you enjoy and you’ll meet people who share your interests.A+ for attitudeDuring those first scary days, having a positive attitude will help you survive. Concentrate on the exciting things you’ll learn and the fun you’ll have with your classma tes. With rest,preparation and the right attitude, you’ll be off to a great school year!Listening for specific comprehension1. What may cause students to worry according to the passage?2.
