The book describes the culture of the late 1940s.2. Pre-reading ActivitiesListen to the short passage twice and answer the following questions.①What’s the main idea?②Where does the strange person come from?③What did the husband leave his wife?听力原文A woman alone writes some painful lines in a notebook. To understand why the lines are painful, we go back in time to a strange event that happened on her wedding day. A strange woman gave the couple a message about their marriage. Every year, the husband and wife discussed their unique wedding guest. The wife thought she had come from heaven; the husband thought she had the wrong shape for some from heaven. One night, he wrote his wife a note. He wrote that it did not matter where their guest had come from. What mattered was that the word giftshe had given them was true. Now that her husband has died, the woman finds the painful lines in the book remind her of him.Answers:①It’s a woman’s memory. She recalled her wedding and a strange person.②Maybe from the heaven.③A note.3.

Why?Answer: No. He was still in doubt Aunt Esther’s identity. This is shown by the phrase in his message;” whether she came from heaven or a nearby town”.4.

1) In picture No. 1,.2) In picture No. 2,.3) In picture No. 3,.4) In picture No. 4,.Reference:2.• I would like to work as a teaching assistant in kindergarten. I really enjoy spending time with small children and I am thinking of working as a teacher in kindergarten in the future. So working as a teaching assistant would definitely be a great experience for me.• I would like to work in a company, whether big or small, because in the future I plan to establish my own business. Working part-time in a company would give me some idea of what it is like to work in a company, how a company is run, and what job a boss should do.Reference:In my opinion, the most important advantages of doing part-time jobs are: gaining work experience, acquiring communicative skills, and building connections for future career. In doing part-time jobs, especially those jobs which are related to my field of study, I can build up my work experience and enrich my resume. Besides, in working, I may have to communicate with different kinds of people, so it can help develop my communicative skills, which are essential to success. And in getting to know some important people in the workplace, I can build some contacts for my future career.1. To measure the impact of employment on student achievement.2. According to the research, a heavy commitment to part-time work undermines and significantly interferes with school achievement and commitment.3. About 10 hours per week or less.4. Students become interested in study again.5. Students may take easier classes, copy others' assignments, cut class, or refuse to do assignments, and over time, students' commitment to school is eroded bit by bit.6. Students may find school less rewarding and interesting, and it is highly possible that those who have been working long hours will drop out of school before graduation.7. Because teenagers working long hours frequently have more money to spend than their peers, and they often become used to spending their earnings on drugs and alcohol.8. Doing part-time jobs while studying is acceptable, but students should work no more than 10 hours a week if they want to be successful in school.1. • Yes, I think early employment can definitely build character because besides study, you have to fit yourself into the working environment. You can learn interpersonal skills, social responsibility and professional ethics in a working setting. Moreover, you have to try hard to strike a balance between work, study, and play. In this way, you will develop a strong sense of responsibility and boost your self-confidence.• No, not necessarily. Though early employment may help students to gain some work experience, it is not necessarily helpful in building their character. Because they have to spend quite a lot of time working and may become less responsible or less committed to their study. Too much work may also lead to alcohol and drug abuse. So, in some cases, early employment undermines character-building rather than help it.2. • Yes, I agree. Students have so many academic tas ks to complete in college that they hardly have any extra time for work. If they work, they will certainly have to spend less time and energy on study, which is likely to depress their school performance. I see many working students around me sleep in class, skip class, or copy others' assignments. If they cannot be responsible students when they should be, how could they become responsible people after graduation? So, I think students should take study as their main task instead of doing part-time jobs.• No, I don't agree. College students should prepare themselves for future careers, so they need not only to perform well academically but also develop other skills because surviving in society requires more than book knowledge. Working part-time can expose students to the real world and help them acquire basic interpersonal skills. Besides, by earning money to pay for their study, college students can learn how to manage their money and become less dependent on their parents.3. • Yes, I agree with the autho r that working while studying has many negative impacts on students, such as not getting enough rest, decreased school performance, abuse of drugs and alcohol. As one's time and energy are limited, working, even part-time, will affect one's study. Therefore, students should take study seriously and it is critical not to work long hours while studying at college.• No, I don't think there are so many negative impacts of working while studying as mentioned by the author. I have many classmates who are working part-time to cover their tuition. Most of them are responsible students as they want to share the financial burden with their parents. They also study very hard for scholarships. At the same time, they try to make full use of their working time. Some of them work with their professors in the lab, so their work does not interfere with their study. In fact, working may benefit their study because they can apply what is learned in class in practice.4. • Yes, I think part-time jobs may help build a sense of responsibility, which in turn may enhance students' school performance. Because if you take part-time jobs while studying, you have to follow the work ethics, observe the working schedule, work up to expectations, contribute to teamwork, and balance work and study. All these will help you to multitask, to be more efficient, to cultivate a sense of responsibility, and to enhance your school performance.• No, I don't think part-time jobs help to build a sense of responsibility, not to mention enhancing students' school performance because students who take part-time work, especially those who work long hours, have to strike a balance between work and study. To meet the demanding working schedule, more often than not, they have to cut corners, for example, by devoting less time to study or ignoring homework. Moreover, they may spend more on entertainment and luxury goods as they have more spending money. Students who work long hours usually fail to meet the academic requirements and have no clear plan for career development.5. Part-time employment provides a good opportunity for students to learn many other things other than book knowledge. It has many positive influences:• building a sense of responsibility as you have to accomplish your tasks;• building self-discipline as you have to manage your time well and rely on yourself;• gaining social skills and work experience as you interact with people outside the classroom;• broadening your vision as you learn about the workplace and society;• having more emplo yment opportunities as you gain work experience in preparation for your future career.1.

PreviewFeelings, like words and actions, also communicate messages. Sometimes feelings say more than just words can tell us. The way words are spoken in English often tells us how the speaker feels. This expression of feeling can make the learning of spoken English very challenging. Knowing and understanding the feelings behind the words makes a huge difference in successful English communication. In this unit, feelings tell us a lot about the people we meet. First, we read about a sad, lonely woman who experiences the pain of loss as she remembers how her wedding day sent its spell over the rest of her marriage. Next, two workers express how annoyed and angry they feel about how they are treated by others. Finally, a man humours us with a funny account of his history of moving. How do these writers communicate these very different feelings?Alone now, the widow reads considerably. She used to underline favorite passages to sharewith her husband. Now, in a notebook, she stores quotations like this one from Elizabeth Jolley's Cabin Fever: "I experience again the deep-felt wish to bepartof a married couple, to sit by the fire in winter with the man who is my husband. So intense is this wish that if I write the word husband on a piece of paper, my eyes fillwith tears."Why are these lines so painful?We begin with a worn wedding album.In the first picture, the bride and groom are facing, with uncertain smiles, a church filled with relatives and friends. The bride did not wear glasses that day, so everything was a blur of candlelight and faces.They walked to the back of the church and stood at the door as their guests filed past. From colleagues and old schoolmates came cheerful good wishes clothed in friendly jokes. Some relatives, however, were not pleased. One sat in a car, crying; another stood surrounded by sympathizers offering pity. Both these women-mothers of the bride and groom-would have insisted they wanted only the best for their children but they defined "the best" as staying home to help support the family. The last person to approach the couple was a short, elderly woman who smiled as she congratulated them-not by name but as "wife" and "husband"."I'm Aunt Esther Gubbins," she said. "I'm here to tell you you are going to live a good life and be happy. You will work hard and love each other."Then quickly, for such a short, portly, elderly person, she disappeared.Soon they departed, in a borrowed car. With money loaned by the groom's brother, they could afford a honeymoon at a state-park lodge. Sitting before a great oak fire, they recalled the events of the day, especially the strange message conveyed by Aunt Esther Gubbins."Is she your mother's sister or your father's?" asked the wife."Isn't she your aunt?" the husband responded. "I never saw her before."They wondered. Had she come to the wrong church or at the wrong time, mistaking them for another couple? Or was she just an old woman who liked weddings and scanned for announcements in church bulletins?With the passage of time and the birth of grandchildren, their mothers accepted their marriage. One made piles of clothes for the children; the other knitted hats, sweaters and gloves.The couple's life together was very ordinary. Peculiarly,neither ever asked "Whose job is this?" or asserted "That is not my responsibility!" Both acted to filltheirneeds as time and opportunity allowed. Arriving from work, he might announce, "Wife, I am home!" And she, restraining the desire tocomplain about housework, would respond, "Husband, I am glad!"Occasionally, usually around their anniversary,they would bringup the old curiosityregarding Aunt Esther Gubbins. He would insist the elderly woman did attend their wedding accidentally.But she knew "Aunt Esther" was on some heavenly mission.Widowed now, the wife wonders what she would savefrom their old home if it were to catch fire: Her mother's ring?Pictures of her husband?The $47 hidden in the sugar bowl?No, it would be the worn, fading envelope she kept for so long. She knows exactly where it can be found: under a pile of napkins.One evening her husband had fallen asleep while reading a spynovel.She wrote a note on the envelope and left it on his book: "Husband, I have gone next door to help Mrs. Norton with her sick children."The next morning she saw he had written below her message: "Wife, I missed you. You thought I was asleep, but I was just resting my eyes and thinking about that peculiar woman who talked to us in church a long time ago. It has always seemed to me that she was the wrong shape for a heavenly messenger.Anyway, it's time to stop wondering whether she came from heaven or a nearby town. What matters is this: whoever she was, Aunt Esther Gubbins was right."Words: 700Saturday, April 7Steve and I hauledtrash for four solid hours continuously,except for about five minutes when we stopped to talk. My shoulder hurt wickedly each time I put another full barrel on it, and my legs occasionally trembled as I was heading to the street. But the rest of me said, "Go, trashman, go."I could not have imaged there would be joy in this. Dump. Lift. Walk. Lift. Walk. The hours flew by.Saturday meant most adults were at home on the route. So were school-age children.I thought this might mean more exchanges as I madetherounds today. Many people were out-doors working in their gardens or greenhouses. Most looked approachable enough. There wasn't time for lengthy talks but enough to exchange greetings that gowithcivilized ways.That is where I got my shock.I said hello in quite a few yards before the message registered that this wasn't normally done. Occasionally, I got a direct reply from someone who looked me in the eye, smiled, and asked "How are you?" or "Isn't this a nice day?" I felt human then. But most often the response was either nothing at all, or a surprised stare because I had spoken.One woman in a housecoat was startled as I came around the corner of her house. At the sound of my greeting, she gathered her housecoat tightly about her and retreated quickly indoors. I heard the lock click. Another woman had a huge, peculiar animal in her yard. I asked what it was. She stared at me. I thought she was deaf and spoke louder. She seemed frightened as she turned coldly away.Steve ragedspontaneously about these things on the long ride to the dump."The way most people look at you, you'd think a trashman was a monster. Say hello and they stare at you in surprise. They don't realize we're human.""One lady put ashes in her trashcan.I said we couldn't take them. She said, 'Whoareyoutosay what goes? You're nothing but a trashman.' I told her, 'Listen, lady, I've got an I.Q. of 137, and I graduated near the top of my high school class. I do this for the money, not because it's the only work I can do.""I want to tell them, 'Look, I am as clean as you are,' but it wouldn't help. I don't tell anyone I'm a garbageman. I say I'm a truck driver. My family knows, but my wife's folks don't. If someone comes right out and asks, 'Do you drive for a garbage company?' I say yes. I believe we're doing a service people need, like being a police officer or a fire fighter. I'm not ashamed of it, but I don't go around boastingabout it either.""A friend of my wife yelled at her kids one day when they ran out to meet a trash truck. 'Stayawayfrom those trashmen. They're dirty.' I was angry with her. 'They're as good as we are,' I told her. 'You seem to have a lot of sympathy for them,' she said. 'Yes, I do.' But I never told her why."I had originally planned to stayat this employment for only two days but now I'm going to continue. The exercise is great; the lifting gets easier with every load, even if my shoulder muscle is sore.I become faster and neater each day. I'm outdoors in clean air. And, contraryto what people think, I don't get dirty on the job.I have decided, too, to keep saying hello in people's yards. It doesn't do any harm, and it still feels right. Frankly, I'm proud. I'm doing an essential task. I left this country a little cleaner than I found it this morning. Not many people can say that tonight. John Gardner wrote that a society which praises its philosophers and looksdownon its plumbersisinfor trouble. "Neither its pipes nor its theories will holdwater,"he warns. He might have gone a step further and calledfor respect for both our economists and our trashmen; otherwise, they'll both leave garbage behind. Words: 702My Moving ExperienceMoving is bad-in the sense of carrying furniture, equipment and hundreds of boxes out of one place and into another. This is why you hardly ever meet nomads (游牧人) anymore, even though "nomad" is a great job name. Suppose you're at a party, someone asks what you do, and you announce 'nomad'. Immediately you're talking about camels (骆驼). And you can leave anytime. "Excuse me," you say, "but I must go now and seek water."I prefer to stay put. Sometimes, like weekends, it takes huge control just to get out of a chair.Regardless, last Thursday we moved into a new house. Since I work at home,this also required moving my office; the buyers of our old house wouldn't like seeing me every day in one of their bedrooms.My wife and I moved because as the kids kept getting bigger and bigger, the house kept getting smaller and smaller. It seemed the kids were eating the house. Moving seemed the wise thing to do even though, in the end, we decided to take the kids with us.In my 20s, moving was done by friends, but everyone secretly hated it. After six or seven hours of lifting chairs and chests, we'd take out our resentment on the furniture. Once we dropped a new refrigerator down a flight of stairs. Now I'm 47, so we hired movers. The idea of "movers" makes me nervous. A group of strong, muscular men come into your house, carry out all your possessions, and drive off in a truck. This can't be good.I chose "Low Cost Movers", checking to make sure they had a permit and were insured(保险). The customer service person, Julie, was helpful with this. "I'm not going to say we never have accidents or even that we rarely have accidents. What I am going to say is if you have a computer, now would be a good time to back up your files (档案)."The week before moving, Julie called twice to confirm (确定) our 8 a.m. appointment. I'm of two minds about confirming. The people doing the confirming always appear very professional, while seeming to say you're not. Obviously Julie knew she was dealing with someone with low mental power. I didn't mind.8 a.m. the day of the move, the moving company calls to say they'll be an hour late. What a relief (松口气). I'm feeling totally lacking in organization (杂乱无序), mainly because I am totally lacking in organization. It's my natural state. Having to have organization (有序), for me, is much too confusing.Moving has taught me I need a better filing system (系统). I plan to have a better filing system in the new office. The old system was more of a piling system, meaning piling everything on my desk-a very good way of organization.11 a.m. The moving company still hasn't arrived. I call Julie. She promises to have the president of the company, Max, personally call me in 10 minutes. I'm impressed. "President" is a great job name, although, let's face it, not as great as "nomad."I have no idea how big this moving company is. Maybe it's just a Mom and Pop operation. Maybe it's just Julie. Maybe Julie is the customer service department, the movers and now the president. It could be a long day. 11:10 a.m. The phone rings. "This is Max, president of Low Cost Moving." I check out the voice. It's not Julie. Max tells me he's upset with the delay. He's enraged at his own moving company. "I'm knocking $10 off the hourly rate," he says.I sympathize with the moving company: "Look," I say, "these things happen. Trucks break. Refrigerators fall down stairs. Workers develop severalpersonalities."3 p.m. Movers still haven't arrived. I call Max, who's more enraged than before. "This is unheard-of," he says. "I'm taking another $10 off the hourly charge."If this keeps up, I'll be moving for free and going nowhere.6 p.m. The movers finally arrive. I call Max. He's fit to be tied.

Most New Year's parties have some things in common: first of all, they are usually noisy; this tradition of noise-making is believed to be centuries old. People thought that loud sounds would drive away the evil spirits of the old year, before the New Year began. In the USA, the biggest and noisiest party takes place in Times Square in New York City. Thousands of people gather there every year. Some of them ring bells or let off fireworks. At midnight, they begin to cheer as an electric sign in the shape of a red apple lights up on top of a tall building.
This revolution is a matter of national importance. 这次革命于国家意义重大。 4. tradition: n. custom; what a group of people have always done 传统;习惯 e.g. In Britain it is a tradition to give children chocolate eggs at Easter.

新视界大学英语第一册第6单元课文翻译及练习答案[1]1
新视界大学英语综合教程第六单元课文翻译及练习答案Active Reading里程碑上周,我生命中最重要的两位女性都跨越了重要的里程碑。
周四,我五岁半的大女儿伊登小学一年级结束了,拿到了她的第一份“评语”,而我60岁的妈妈庆祝自己光荣退休。
这两件事都提醒着我:我是一个非常幸运的人。
这两件事都让我对自己出生的家庭和正在经营的家庭感到自豪。
这两件事都使我思考妈妈当时努力把我培养成什么样的人以及我正努力把女儿培养成什么样的人。
我一直努力不让自己成为那种一谈起令人自豪的孩子就喋喋不休的家长。
所以,我就不细讲伊登的评语了,免得你们感到无聊。
但我还是会提一下这两页文档中那五个无疑让我倍感骄傲的短语:“果断独立”、“非常专注”、“幽默风趣”、“充满活力”和“乐于助人”。
这些都不是对伊登学业成绩的描述,但对我来说,如果伊登在上学期间能够保持这些特质,这比她的学习成绩更为重要。
当天的晚些时候,我听了爸爸在妈妈退休晚宴上的发言,真切地意识到母亲对我的生活有多么积极的影响;她是如此出色的榜样,要做到她那样实在不容易。
妈妈永远是一个乐观、稳重、沉着的人,极少因为什么事而烦恼。
爸爸是这样形容她的:“才情可畏”。
只要她一开口,就能滔滔不绝,不管是讲什么。
从运动到政治,她对一切无所不知,简直厉害得吓人。
她充满了生机和活力。
她就是她自己,而且为此而开心。
她非常坚强,善于处理问题。
她让人感到愉悦。
她充满了智慧。
她是一个天生的“咨询师”。
在我和兄弟们还很小的时候,妈妈为了养育我们,舍弃了很多,还放弃了前途光明的社会工作,她本来可以轻而易举地在事业上获得巨大成功,但她从来没有一句怨言。
多年之后,我们都长大了,而她开始了一份全新的事业——教书,一切都那么自然。
妈妈教给我的最重要的东西就是:我可以做任何事。
整个世界都是我的盘中餐,为什么不享用呢?她总能让我很有安全感,让我倍感爱意。
在遭遇危机或冲突的时候,她总是尽力保护我,但同时,她又教我站出来维护自己。
新视野英语语1第三版第6单元作文
新视野英语语1第三版第6单元作文Unit 6 of "New Horizon English Book 1" is all about holidays and celebrations. In this unit, we learn about different holidays and how they are celebrated in different cultures around the world. From Christmas to Chinese New Year, from Thanksgiving to Diwali, there are so many diverse holidays to learn about and explore.One of the most important holidays in my culture is Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year. It is a time of joy and celebration, where families come together to feast, exchange gifts, and wish each other good luck for the coming year. The streets are filled with colorful decorations, fireworks light up the sky, and traditional lion dancers perform in the streets.Another important holiday in my culture is the Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Mooncake Festival. It is a time to give thanks for the harvest and celebrate the full moon. Families gather together to enjoy mooncakes, a traditional pastry filled with lotus seed paste and salted egg yolk, and to admire the beauty of the moon.In Unit 6, we also learn about holidays in other cultures, such as Thanksgiving in America and Bonfire Night in the UK. Theseholidays may be different from the ones we celebrate in my culture, but they all have one thing in common – they are times for families and communities to come together and celebrate.Overall, Unit 6 has taught me the importance of holidays and celebrations in bringing people together and creating lasting memories. Whether we are celebrating with our families or with our friends, holidays are a time to cherish and enjoy the company of those we love. I look forward to celebrating many more holidays in the future, both in my culture and in cultures around the world.。
