TranslationsUnit 11.Meyer opened the bidding at $55 million, matching the record pricepaid for a Picasso at auction.迈耶开出起拍价5500万美元，该价格相当于以往毕加索作品的最高竞拍价2.Standing near the front of the room, Weitman bid up to $79 million bydetecting signals from someone in the room, a classic auction ruse meant to preserve the anonymity of a bidder.维特曼站位靠近拍卖会场的前部，通过捕捉来自会场内其他一些人的信号（这样做是一个典型的拍卖计策旨在保护竞拍者的身份）为其竞拍，把价格推升至7900万美元3.The hammer came down, the painting went to weitman’s collectorfor $104 million with buyer’s premium, and the audience broke into applause.拍卖槌落下，这幅画被维特曼代理的收藏者以1.04亿美元附带买家附加费的价格收入囊中，观众们爆发出掌声4.Picasso’s portrait of a moody adolescent in blue overalls, a garlandof roses on his head, and an unlit pipe in his hand dating from the artist’s Rose period [1905-6], was bought by Whitney for $50,000 in 1950.毕加索这幅肖像画表现的是一个穿蓝色工装的忧郁少年，头戴玫瑰花环，手持一个未点燃的烟斗，这幅作品可追溯到画家的粉红色时期[1905-1906]，被惠特尼在1950年以5万美元买下5.Daix surmises that Picasso would have been pleased to compete withvan Gogh for such prices, that his work would get as muchrecognition as that of a painter for whom he had a lot of respect and admiration戴克斯推断毕加索将会很高兴与凡高以这样的价格竞争，而且他的作品能与他尊敬和仰慕的画家同样受到赞誉Unit 21.It is important for us not to deceive ourselves into believing that wecan understand the intention of an African sculptor simply by looking at his work.这对于我们来说很重要不要自欺欺人的认为知识简单看非洲雕塑作品就能够理解一个非洲雕塑家的创作意图2.In the case of the masks made by the Kalabari of the Niger Delta,Horton has discovered that is because the painting is not simply an enrichment of the sculpture, but is the means whereby the spirit is brought to occupy the mask.以位于尼日尔三角洲的卡拉巴瑞族制作的面具为例，霍顿发现因为彩绘不仅仅可以使雕塑面具丰富多彩，还是招魂于其上的手段3.While the Fang argue that the statues represent age, the ancestors,and their august powers in their descendants’ affairs, they also recognize the infantile qualities of the figures themselves.虽然范族人有理由证明雕塑代表年龄、祖先及对其后代事物的威慑力，他们也承认人物本身具有婴儿特征4.In Western society, when art critics speak of “art for art’s sake”,they mean that the artist produces an object which is valued for itself, which attempts neither to instruct nor to edify, a product in which the artist is concerned exclusively with the solution of artistic problems of composition, color or form.在西方社会，当艺术评论家说道“艺术至上主义”时，他们的意思是创作自身具有价值的创作，他们既不教授也不教诲，艺术家只关注构图，色彩、造型这些艺术难题的解决之道5.Yet they do have a social function which is entirely independent of thesubject represented: that of establishing prestige, brass being regarded as a semi-precious metal; only the wealthy can afford to buy them, and they are displayed in the home both as objects of beauty and as status symbols然而他们的确具有完全独立的主题表现的社会官能：树立威望，黄铜被认为是贵重金属，只有富有的人能支付的起购买这种材质的艺术品，因而它们作为美与声望的象征陈列于家中Unit 31.Resultantly, they mean many different things to different people. It isnot even possible to be too specific about what the word “exhibition”means, and even more “professional” ones.因此，它们对于不同的人来说意味颇多。

Unit 1 Bridging Cultural Gap Development
Regarding international communications, travel and trade are good ways of carrying the communication. Beforehand, travelers and business people can read books well prepared for them on how to become aware of and how to handle the cultural differences. Conflict raised by cultural divisions can be lessened through communication. Immigrants and migrant laborers need to learn the ways of adapting to new culture. Tourists may also meet diversity in protocols, such as tips, body language, personal space, dress codes, and other cultural issues. Knowledge of cultural differences should be covered by language teachers as well.
大学生艺术类英语教材
大学生艺术类英语教材Introduction:English Language Learning in Art EducationAs art continues to gain popularity among university students, there is a growing recognition of the need to integrate English language learning into art education. With the expansion of global exchange programs, it is crucial for art students to possess proficiency in English to effectively communicate and collaborate with artists and art enthusiasts from around the world. This article aims to explore the significance of incorporating English language learning in art education and propose a framework for a specialized English textbook catering specifically to art students.Section 1: The Importance of English Language in Art Education1.1 Enhancing Global CommunicationIn the contemporary art world, interaction between artists, critics, and curators from diverse cultures is prevalent. Proficiency in English enables art students to connect with international communities and gain exposure to different artistic perspectives.1.2 Facilitating Cultural ExchangeArt is deeply rooted in cultural contexts. By incorporating English language learning into art education, students can access a wide range of literature, articles, and critical analyses, enabling them to better understand art movements, trends, and the historical development of art across cultures.1.3 Expanding Career OpportunitiesProficiency in English opens up numerous career opportunities for art students. Whether pursuing careers as artists, art educators, or museum professionals, the ability to effectively communicate in English enhances their competitiveness in the global job market.Section 2: Designing a Specialized English Textbook for Art Students2.1 Targeted VocabularyThe textbook should include art-specific vocabulary encompassing various art forms, techniques, materials, and art historical terminology. This will equip students with the necessary language skills to discuss and analyze artworks proficiently.2.2 Thematic UnitsEach unit should revolve around a specific theme, such as "Abstract Art" or "Sculpture," providing comprehensive vocabulary, reading materials, and exercises related to the theme. This will enable students to develop language skills while deepening their understanding of art.2.3 Authentic Artistic MaterialsIncluding authentic materials, such as interviews with contemporary artists, exhibition reviews, and artist biographies, will expose students to real-world English usage in the arts field, fostering their ability to comprehend and discuss art topics fluently.2.4 Collaborative ProjectsTo simulate real-life art collaborations, the textbook should incorporate group projects that encourage students to apply their language skills inartistic contexts. For example, students can engage in collaborative art critiques and presentations in English, fostering teamwork and communication abilities.Section 3: Supporting Resources and Tools3.1 Audiovisual MaterialsThe textbook should be accompanied by audio recordings of dialogues, interviews, and lectures to provide students with oral language practice, pronunciation guidance, and exposure to various accents.3.2 Online PlatformA dedicated online platform should be developed to accompany the textbook, offering additional resources such as interactive exercises, video demonstrations, and virtual art galleries. This platform can facilitate self-study and encourage independent exploration.3.3 Teacher's GuideFor instructors, a comprehensive guide should be included, containing suggested activities, assessment tools, and teaching strategies to effectively integrate the textbook into art education curriculum.Conclusion:Incorporating English language learning into art education is essential for ensuring the holistic development of university art students. By designing a specialized English textbook catering specifically to their needs, we can equip art students with the language skills necessary for global communication, cultural exchange, and expanding career opportunities.Through a well-structured curriculum and interactive resources, students can enhance their language proficiency while deepening their engagement with the arts.。

Whether near his home in Wales, roaming other parts of Britain or even further afield, linguist David Crystal always travels with an insatiable curiosity about the English language. He never fails to meet people with distinctive accents or come across towns with unusual names, and takes the time to explore intriguing turns of phrase, whether rooted deep in Anglo-Saxon origins or fresh off a television set. In his new book, “Walking English,” David Crystal hits the road in search of new linguistic experiences from Wales to Lodz in Poland and California’s Silicon Valley. He joins us in a moment to discuss the lilts, words, catchphrases and grammar he found along the way. David Crystal joins us from his home in Holyhead, Wales. And it’s nice to have you back on the program. Mr. DAVIDCRYSTAL (Author, “Walking English”). Hello, Neal, it’s a real pleasure to be back.Learning English as a Global Language Unit 219u2.indd 192012.8.14 2:58:01 PMNEAL CONAN. And to begin with, how do you define your accent? (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. I wish I could. Well, you know, an accent reflects where you’ve been, where you’ve been brought up. And most people these days don’t spend their whole lives in one place. So, whereas once upon a time it was quite easy to almost predict where somebody had come from just by listening to them, you listen to somebody like me and what you hear in this voice you’re hearing now is the first 10 years of my life living in Wales - living in Wales it would have been that sort of accent then. And then the next 10 years of my life living in Liverpool, well, everybody knows the Beatles. The Beatles accent, you know. And there was that sort of accent mixed in with it. And then I lived for 20 years down in the south of England and there was a kind of, you know, southern accent that came on top of the other two. And they’ve all mixed together to produce what you’re hearing now. CONAN. And it’s interesting, you say, in part, your accent depends on who y ou’re speaking with. Your children, for example, grew up in this country. Mr. CRYSTAL. Well, it’s - it’s, you know, as you and I might talk now over the next few minutes, I wouldn’t mind betting that my accent became slightly more American than it might ha ve been before. You know, it’s what happens. Accents change in terms of everything. I mean, that’s a good example.My kids, take the word schedule, you know, schedule in America, of course. Now I was brought up to say shed-ule. But all my kids have been influenced by American English. So, they all say, sked-ule. So, when I talk to them, I say sked-ule as well now. So, I got two pronunciations of the word. And this is very typical of the way language is going. CONAN. I - I had the good fortune to live and work in London for four years and it was my contention that an American could get about two-thirds of the way to a British accent before anybody noticed. (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. That’s right. And not just in pronunciation but, also in spelling because an awful lot of the American spellings have come into British English now. Yes, that’s right. I mean, it’s all your fault, you see... (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. ...you guys, the other side of the pond. You’ve made all the films, you made all the most successful television programs and things like that. And so, inevitably we are more used to your accent than you are to ours. I mean, one day, when British filmmaking becomes as powerful as Hollywood, it might go the other way round. But I can’t see that happening just yet. CONAN. Well, we used to go to the theatre sometimes and we would hear British actors doing Americans accents. In general they’re much better at American accents than we are at British ones. But nevertheless, there used to be something I used to call the I-80 accent because it sort of wandered all the way across the country. (Soundbite of laughter) Mr. CRYSTAL. Yes, that’s right. It’s very difficult actually to pick up the accent differences within a country if you’re not part of that country. CONAN. Mm-hmm. Mr. CRYSTAL. I mean, I’ve been to America several times and I’ve got to know, you know, some of the accent differences, but I still have great difficulty placing accents in a way that you would have no trouble about.And vice-versa. You know, Americans come over to Britain and they - they don’t - they20Unit 2 Learning English as a Global Languageu2.indd 202012.8.14 2:58:01 PMget the main accents, like say, Scottish English or something like that... CONAN. Mm-hmm. Mr. CR YSTAL. But it’s very difficult to really put your finger on some of the more subtle differences. CONAN. I was astonished to learn that English people had a hard time differentiating between American and Canadian accents. And indeed, they found it curious t hat I couldn’t tell the difference between Kiwis and Aussies. Mr. CRYSTAL. Yeah, that’s right. CONAN. Yeah. Mr. CRYSTAL. I think most people would be completely unclear about the difference between U.S. and Canadian English. I mean, there are some very clear differences, like the Canadian, you know, house, which you just don’t get the other side of - your side of the border. But most British people just wouldn’t hear it.Part Two Initializing the ProjectReadingActivity 1:Things to be crossed out are.

Unit 6 Less is moreSection A Door closer, are you?Background information1 Xiang YuXiang Yu (232 BC-202 BC) was a prominent military leader and political figure during the late Qin Dynasty. In 207 BC, Xiang Yu led the Chu rebel forces to victory at the Battle of Julu（巨鹿之战）against the Qin armies. After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu proclaimed himself “Hegemon-King of Western Chu”（西楚霸王）and ruled a vast area of land covering parts of present-day Shanxi, Henan, Hubei, Hunan and Jiangsu. He engaged Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty, in a long struggle for power, known as the Chu-Han Contention（楚汉之争）that concluded with his eventual defeat and suicide at the bank of the Wu River.2 the Battle of JuluThe battle was fought in Julu (in present-day Xingtai, Hebei, 现今的河北邢台) primarily between forces of the Qin Dynasty and the insurgent（谋叛的）state of Chu. The Battle of Julu marked the decline of Qin’s military power. In 207 BC, Xiang Yu’s army advanced towards Julu and successfully crossed the Zhang River（漳河）, which separated them from Julu, to attack the Qin forces. After crossing the Zhang River, Xiang Yu ordered his men to sink all their boats and break their cooking pots, leaving only a three-day supply of food for each soldier. He warned them that there was no way to retreat; the only thing they could do to survive was to advance and fight. Xiang Yu’s boat burning strategy gave his men no choice but to do forward to fight with skill and passion. After nine long fierce battles, the Qin army was finally defeated. The battle of Julu was of crucial importance in overthrowing the Qin Dynasty, and it has been known as the battle of “Smashing the Cauldrons and Sinking the Boats”（破釜沉舟）. This idiom is now used to indicate one’s firm determination to achieve one’s goal at any cost.3 behavioral economicsBehavioral economics is an interdisciplinary school subject of economics and psychology, which studies the effect of social, cognitive and emotional factors on the economic decisions of individuals and institutions, and the consequences for market prices, returns and resource allocation.Detailed study of the text1The next time you’re deciding between rival options, one which is primary and theother which is primary and the other which is secondary, ask yourself this question: What would Xiang Yu do? (Para.1)Meaning:The next time when you are to make a choice between two competing options , you have to distinguish which is the primary one and which is the minor one. To be enlightened, you ask yourself what option XiangYu would choose.Meaning beyond words: It suggests that XiangYu was a wonderful decision-maker. Note:The phrase rival options means that both options seem like good choice , but one choice is somewhat better than the other. In this case, it is the one That XiangYu chose to implement.rival:a.(only before noun) used about a person or group that competes against sb. or sth. else 竞争的；对抗的Fierce fighting broke out between the rival groups. 敌对集团之间爆发了激烈的战斗。

Appendix: Teaching Contents:A. Text AnalysisTo make a character portrait convincing, an author must refrain from telling readers directly what the person is like. Instead, he/she lets readers deduce.Of all the methods of indirect description, the one used most frequently in Text A is quotation. The author quotes not only Sam Walton himself, e.g. “Th e reason for our success... is our people and the way they’re treated and the way they feel about their company. They believe things are different here, but they deserve the credit”, but also his townsfolk and colleaguesThe text begins with an anecdote: how waiter Jamie Beaulieu had anticipated a lavish mansion at the Waltons, only to find an ordinary-looking household. This kind of beginning lures readers to go on. There are other anecdotes, like how Sam Walton forgot his wallet and insisted on fetching it to pay the local barber, and how he lost 4 straight games after a Wal-Mart employee asked him a question about pricing.Sam Walton is a folksy guy, of which a lot of examples are given. Examples of how generous an employer he is are also plentiful.Jami e Beaulieu’s anticipation and the reality he later found out form a contrast. It reveals SamWalton’s down-home characteristics. When retired company president Ferold F. Arend compared Sam Walton with his previous employer, we appreciate further Sam Walton’s generosity.B. Cultural Notes1. Rolls-Royce: any of the large, expensive, comfortable cars made by the British company Rolls-Royce. Many people recognize them by the small metalstatue on the front of every Rolls-Royce car. The company was formed in 1905—1906 by Charles Rolls (1877—1910) and Henry Royce (1863—1933) and also produces aircraft engines. The Rolls-Royce company was bought by the German company Volkswagen in 1998. The name Rolls-Royce is also used informally to refer to the best product of a particular type.2. dime store: a store offering a wide assortment of inexpensive items, formerly costing five or ten cents, for personal and household use.3. Wal-Mart: any of a very large chain of shops in the US selling a wide range of goods at low prices. The first Wal-Mart Discount City was opened in 1962 by Sam Walton.4. Ford Motor Company: a large US company that makes cars. It was established in Detroit in1903 by Henry Ford, and the first Model T was sold in 1908. The company has produced the Lincoln since 1922 and the Mercury since 1938.5. names: Apart from their surname or last name, most British and American children are given two personal names by their parents, a first name and a middle name. These names are sometimes called Christian names or given names. Some people have only one given name, a few have three or more. Friends and members of a family who are of similar age usually call one another by their first names. In some families young people now also call their aunts and uncles and even their parents by their first names. Outside the family, the expression be on first name terms suggests that the people concerned have a friendly, informal relationship.When writing their name Americans commonly give their first name, their middle initial and their last name, e.g. George M. Cohan. Both given names are used in full only on formal occasions, e.g. when people get married.6. Forbes: an American business magazine. It is noted for its lists of the richest men and women in business. In its November 27, 2000 edition it published one listing the 50 richest businessmen and women in China, headed by Rong Yiren of CITIC with 1.9 billion dollars, followed in second place by LiuYongxing of the Hope Group with 1 billion dollars.

南京艺术学院第二册英语课文翻译（1~10 ）第一单元你去过古玩店吗？如果你能像买家那样博学，你就有可能买到不同凡响但又很便宜的东西。
幸运的发现古玩店对许多人来说有一种特殊的魅力。
高档一点的古玩店为了防尘，把文物漂亮地陈列在玻璃柜子里，那里往往令人望而却步。
而对不太装腔作势的古玩店，无论是谁都不用壮着胆子才敢往里进。
人们还常常有希望在发霉，阴暗，杂乱无章，迷宫般的店堂里，从杂乱地摆放在地面上的，一堆堆各式各样的破烂货里找到一件稀世珍品。
无论是谁都不会一下子就发现一件珍品。
一个到处找便宜货买的人必须具有耐心，而且最重要的是看到珍品时要有鉴别珍品的能力。
要做到这一点，他至少要像古董商一样懂行。
他必须像一个专心致志进行探索的科学家一样抱有这样的希望，即终有一天，他的努力会取得丰硕的成果。
我的老朋友弗兰克哈利戴正是这样一个人。
他多次向我详细讲他如何只花50 英镑便买到一位名家的杰作。
一个星期六的上午，弗兰克去了我家附近的一家古玩店。
由于他从未去过那儿，结果他发现了许多有趣的东西。
上午很快过去了，弗兰克正准备离去，突然看见地板上放着一只体积很大的货箱。
古董商告诉他那只货箱刚到不久，但他嫌麻烦不想把它打开。
经弗兰克恳求，古董商才勉强把货箱撬开了。
箱内东西令人失望。
除了一柄式样别致、雕有花纹的匕首外，货箱内装满了陶器，而且大部分都已破碎。
弗兰克轻轻地把陶器拿出箱子，突然发现在箱底有一幅微型画，画面构图与线条使他想起了一幅他所熟悉的意大利画，于是他决定将画买下来。
古董商漫不经心看了一眼那幅画，告诉弗兰克那画值50 英镑。
弗兰克几乎无法掩饰自己兴奋的心情，因为他明白自己发现了一件珍品。
那幅不大的画原来是柯勒乔的一幅未被发现的杰作，价值几十万英镑。

大学英语拓展教程2第二单元作文
大学英语拓展教程2第二单元作文全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Title: My Dream of Becoming a SuperstarHi there! My name is Emily, and I'm a 10-year-old girl who loves to sing, dance, and perform. Ever since I was a little kid, I've always dreamed of becoming a superstar like Taylor Swift or Ariana Grande. Let me tell you all about my big dream!When I was just 5 years old, my parents took me to see a live concert by my favorite pop singer at the time. It was magical! The lights, the music, the energy in the air – I was completely mesmerized. From that moment on, I knew I wanted to be up on that stage, singing my heart out and making people happy with my voice.Since then, I've been practicing singing and dancing every single day. My mom says I'm like a little songbird, always humming and making up my own tunes. I even put on little shows for my family in our living room, using my hairbrush as a microphone. They clap and cheer for me, which makes me feel like a real star!In school, I always volunteer to sing solo parts during our music classes or school assemblies. My friends think I'm really good, and they encourage me to try out for talent shows or join the school choir. I love performing in front of people, even if it's just my classmates and teachers.Last year, my parents enrolled me in voice lessons and dance classes. My voice teacher, Mrs. Johnson, says I have a lot of natural talent and potential. She's been teaching me how to breathe properly, project my voice, and hit those high notes. As for dance, I'm learning all kinds of styles like hip-hop, jazz, and even a little bit of ballet. It's so much fun, and I feel like I'm improving every day.When I'm not singing or dancing, I love watching videos of my favorite pop stars on YouTube or TikTok. I study their moves, their outfits, and the way they command the stage. I imagine myself up there, entertaining millions of fans and making them scream with excitement.I also want to be a positive role model for other kids who dream big like me. I want to show them that with dedication, perseverance, and a whole lot of passion, anything is possible. Who knows, maybe someday you'll see me performing on stageat a massive concert venue, singing my heart out and living my dream!So, that's my big dream of becoming a superstar. I'll keep practicing, keep learning, and keep believing in myself. With my family's support and my love for music and performing, I know I can make it happen. Wish me luck, everyone! Maybe one day, you'll be singing along to one of my hit songs.篇2Learning English Is Fun!Hi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm a 4th grader. I really like learning English because it's super fun and interesting. Mrs. Roberts is my English teacher and she always makes our classes awesome. Today I want to tell you all about what we learned in Unit 2 of our college English extension course book.The unit was called "A Wider World" and it was packed with cool stuff about different countries and cultures around the world. We started by reading this really neat story called "Tinker's Travels." It was about a little toy robot named Tinker who got lost and ended up going on all these crazy adventures in far-off places like India, Egypt, and Mexico.In India, Tinker met this elephant driver called a mahout who helped him see amazing temples and go on an elephant ride through the jungle. How cool is that?! I would love to ride an elephant someday. We learned that India has over a billion people and they speak tons of different languages there. The official language used in schools is called Hindi and it has its own alphabet with funky squiggly letters. I tried writing my name in Hindi and it looked crazy!After India, Tinker visited Egypt where he saw the famous Great Pyramids and the Sphinx statue with the body of a lion and a human head. Those ancient Egyptian people were incredible builders. We made our own miniature pyramids out of sugar cubes and they kept falling apart. I can't imagine how they built ones as massive as the real pyramids using just ropes and sleds!Mexico was Tinker's next stop. That chapter talked a lot about the Día de los Muertos or Day of the Dead festival they celebrate there. It's not meant to be scary, but more of a happy celebration to honor relatives who have passed away. We made decorative sugar skulls and learned that the bright yellow marigold flowers are really important during the festival. Mexican food also sounded delicious - I really want to try mole sauce and hot chocolate made with chili peppers someday!Throughout the stories, we learned about different traditions, holidays, foods, and fun facts from countries all over the globe. Mrs. Roberts had us working on projects like making travel brochures, giving oral presentations about a country we picked, and sampling yummy cultural snacks like Turkish delight and Chinese candied fruits. It was like taking tiny trips to all these fascinating places without ever leaving our classroom!My favorite part was when we had to write pen pal letters to students from other countries. I got paired up with a 9-year-old boy named Ravi who lives in New Delhi, India. In my letter, I asked him tons of questions about what his daily life is like, what foods he enjoys, and what he likes to do for fun. I can't wait to get his response and learn more about his world. How neat is it that I now have a friend on the other side of the planet?Overall, Unit 2 made me realize how many cool cultures and customs exist beyond my little town. The world is such an enormous, vibrant place with countless traditions to discover. Learning about different countries doesn't just teach you facts, it helps you appreciate the diversity of people and open your mind to new perspectives. It's a big world out there and I'm excited to explore more of it through books, activities, and maybe even some real travel adventures when I'm older!Well, that's all I've got for now. Gotta run - Mrs. Roberts scheduled a super exciting virtual field trip to the Amazon rainforest next and I don't want to be late! Learning English is awesome because it opens doors to understanding people from everywhere. See you next time!篇3My Big Adventures in Learning EnglishHi there! My name is Timmy and I'm 10 years old. I'm going to tell you all about how I've been learning English and the fun adventures I've had along the way. Get ready for an exciting story!It all started a few years ago when my mom and dad told me that I was going to start taking English lessons. At first, I wasn't too sure about it. I thought English was just this weird language that grown-ups had to learn for their jobs and stuff. But my parents said it would be really important for me to know English as I got older. They said it's like the language that connects the whole world together!So off I went to my first English class. I remember feeling a little nervous walking into that classroom. There were all these big books filled with strange words and rules I didn't understand.But my teacher, Mrs. Jenkins, was really nice. She made learning English fun by having us sing songs, play games, and even act out little skits! Before I knew it, I was soaking up words like "apple," "run," and "friend" like a sponge.As the lessons went on, English started seeming less weird and more...I dunno, kinda cool? Like it was unlocking a secret code to communicate with new people and see amazing things. My vocabulary grew and grew, from basic words to describing things with crazy adjectives like "gigantic" and "miniscule." Sentence structure still trips me up sometimes, but I'm getting there!The biggest adventure, though, was when my family went on a trip to the United States two summers ago. Everything from the airplane ride to the hotels to the restaurants - it was all English, English, English! At first I was a little overwhelmed. But then I realized...hey, I could actually understand a lot of what people were saying to me! When the server at a diner asked "What would you like to drink?" I knew exactly how to respond with "A chocolate milkshake, please!" Ordering my own food, asking where the bathrooms were, even just making small talk...it felt like I was some kind of English superhero!There were still plenty of hilarious misunderstandings, though. Like when I asked a guy at Disneyland "What time is the dog Show?" because I thought he said "dog show" instead of "dog show." Imagine my surprise when Mickey Mouse came dancing out! My parents just laughed and thanked my English lessons for making it possible to communicate at all.Another time, I was at the hotel swimming pool and noticed this reaaaally cute girl playing with her parents. I practiced what I was going to say over and over: "Hi, my name is Timmy. Do you want to go swimming together?" I was sooo nervous, but finally worked up the courage to say it. Except what came out was "Hi, my name is go swimming Timmy. Do you want to together?" The girl just looked at me like I was crazy, and I felt like disappearing into the pool! Ugh, still needs some work on that grammar...But honestly, little blunders like that are all just part of the fun. Learning English has opened up so many doors for me to make friends, see new places, and explore opportunities I never would've had before. I'm just a kid, but now the whole world feels so much bigger and brighter!There's still SO muchmore for me to learn - idioms, writing compositions, prepping for those big standardized tests. Being bilingual is hard work, no doubt. But I'm going to stick with it andkeep on adventuring. Who knows where English will take me? Maybe I'll be a diplomat and negotiate world peace...or a scientist who helps invent radical new technologies...or even a great novelist spinning wild tales about a young learner like me! Whatever I end up doing, I know that English is going to be a lingo I'm fluent in for life.So that's my story so far! A big round of a-plau-se (see, I'm still learning how to pronounce some words) to English for being an awesome tool to explore this amazingly diverse world we live in. Thanks for reading, and don't be scared to start your own journey into a new language. Who knows what adventures are waiting? Let me know how it goes, ok? Bye for now!篇4My Awesome Summer VacationSummer vacation is the best time of the year! No more teachers, no more books, no more sitting at desks all day long. Just weeks and weeks of fun, fun, fun! This summer was one of the most exciting ever. I went on so many awesome adventures and did a bunch of really cool stuff. Let me tell you all about it!It all started on the last day of school. I was sooo happy when the final bell rang. All my classmates cheered and threwtheir hats in the air. No more school for three whole months! My mom picked me up and we went home to start getting ready for our big summer trip. We were going to drive all the way across the country to visit my grandparents in California. I couldn't wait!The next morning, bright and early, we loaded up the car with our suitcases and snacks and toys to keep me busy in the car. My dad got behind the wheel and we hit the road. The drive took forever! We had to stop every few hours to use the bathroom, get gas, and let my little brother Stevie run around after being cooped up in the car. I read books, played games on my tablet, and gazed out the window watching the scenery change as we crossed different states.Finally, after what felt like a bajillion hours in the car, we made it to my grandparents' house. I was so excited to see them! My grandma gave me a huge hug and my grandpa picked me up and spun me around. He's really strong for an old guy! Their house looked just like I remembered – a cozy little blue bungalow with a beautiful flower garden out front. The best part was the backyard though. They had this gigantic swimming pool! As soon as we were settled in, I changed into my bathing suit and cannon-balled into that pool. Ahhh, that cool water felt so refreshing after being stuck in a hot car for days.We spent two wonderful weeks at my grandparents' place just relaxing and having fun. I went swimming every single day, either in their pool or at the beach. My grandpa taught me how to body surf in the big waves – that was scary at first but I got the hang of it. We had big barbecues and roasted marshmallows over the fire pit in their backyard. On the 4th of July, we watched a spectacular fireworks show light up the night sky in brilliant colors. I stuffed my face with cotton candy, caramel apples, and funnel cakes from the carnival too!Towards the end of our trip, the whole family went to Disneyland. Oh man, I was like a kid in a candy store! We rode the wildest rollercoasters like Space Mountain and Splash Mountain. We met Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and all the other classic Disney characters. I danced alongside the princesses in a magical parade down Main Street USA. We watched an incredible nighttime show with stunning lights, music, and fireworks over Sleeping Beauty's castle. I never wanted to leave that magical place!After our Disneyland adventure, it was finally time to head back home. I was kinda sad because I loved being in sunny California and spending time with my grandparents. But I was also excited to get back and see my friends again. Plus, therewere still over a month of summer vacation left! We stopped on the drive back home in Las Vegas for a couple of nights. Can you believe they have actual pyramids, a mini Eiffel tower, and castles right there in the desert? Vegas was a total sensory overload with the flashing neon lights, ringing slot machines, and gigantic musical fountains. I decided I definitely want to be a professional magician when I grow up after seeing the incredible magic shows there.When we finally made it back to our quiet little town, I was greeted by my best buddy Charlie. We spent countless sunny days running through sprinklers in the backyard, having epic water balloon fights, and just being silly kids. We'd make cheap carnival games like ring tosses or milk bottle pyramids and charge our parents a quarter to play and win little prizes. At night we'd collect fireflies in mason jars and go on backyard camping adventures in our tents. Of course no summer is complete without a lemonade stand too! We'd mix up big pitchers of super sour lemonade and sell it to neighbors for just 25 cents a cup. I think we made about 5 total, which we happily spent on ice cream.Before I knew it, school was starting up again way too soon. Those three months of summer freedom just flew by in the blinkof an eye! I'll always look back on this past summer with amazing memories though – the long road trip, seeing my grandparents, hitting up Disneyland and Vegas, hanging out with my best friend, and all the other little silly adventures in between. I hope next summer is just as fun! Though I do look forward to seeing my friends every day and learning new things in my classes too. Fourth grade, here I come!篇5My Summer VacationSummer vacation is the best time of the year! No school, no homework, just fun all day long. This summer was the most exciting one yet.It started off with a bang on the last day of school. All my classmates were cheering and running around feeling free. I was doing cartwheels on the playground. My best friend Sammy and I made silly faces at our teacher Mrs. Johnson as we left for summer break. She tried to look mad but I could see she was holding back a smile.The first week of vacation, I slept in late every morning. My mom had to shake me awake around 10am. I spent lots of lazy days just watching TV and eating snacks. But after a week, I gotbored. "This summer is going to be lame if I just sit around all day," I told my puppy Rufus.That's when my dad suggested we go camping for a few days. Camping?! I love camping! We packed up our tent, sleeping bags, camp stove, and a bunch of other supplies. We drove three hours to a campground near a cool lake in the forest.Setting up the tent was hard work. I struggled to hammer in the stakes while dad unrolled the tent. But finally we got it standing up straight. I was proud of our little camping home for the next few nights. As night fell, we made smores over the campfire. The gooey chocolate and toasted marshmallows tasted like heaven.In the morning, we went on a long hike around the lake. I spotted a deer drinking from the water and countless birds flitting through the trees. Being out in nature was so peaceful. That afternoon, dad and I went canoeing. The water was smooth as glass. I got to use the paddle a bit too. We didn't catch any fish but we didn't care.At night, we stared up at a gazillion stars twinkling in the deep black sky. Dad pointed out constellations like The Big Dipper and Orion's Belt. Sitting by the crackling campfire, weroasted hot dogs for dinner. I went to sleep feeling happy and closer to my dad.After camping, the rest of summer vacation seemed to fly by. Sammy and I spent lots of days riding our bikes around the neighborhood. We set up a lemonade stand a few times too, hustling to make some extra money. I bought the latest comic books with my profits.There were fun day trips as well. We went strawberry picking one day and made fresh jam with our berries. Another time we visited an amusement park and went on all the crazy rides. I loved the looping roller coaster and spinning tea cups, even though they made me a little dizzy.But way too soon, summer break was over. I dreaded going back to school and homework again. The night before class started, I played outside catching fireflies until it got too dark to see them glowing. I felt sad saying goodbye to summer.Now I'm back at my desk at school, daydreaming about the fun I had over vacation instead of listening to my teacher's boring math lesson. I'm already counting down the days until next summer when I'll be free again to go on more adventures!篇6My Awesome Summer VacationHey there! My name is Timmy and I just got back from the most amazing summer vacation ever! I'm so excited to tell you all about it. Get ready for an awesome adventure!It all started when my parents surprised me and my little sister Sarah by telling us we were going on a big trip. They didn't say where at first, which made it even more exciting! After what felt like forever of guessing and begging them to spill the beans, they finally revealed we were going to Disney World in Florida! Sarah and I totally freaked out. We had been dreaming of going to the happiest place on Earth for years.The flight down to Orlando took forever and a day. Good thing my parents loaded up my tablet with tons of games and movies to keep me busy. As soon as we landed and got our rental car, I could feel the Disney magic in the air. We drove right to our Disney resort hotel which had these gigantic statues of Mickey and his pals out front. So cool!Our hotel room was amazing too. There were Mickey Mouse decorations everywhere and the bathtub even had his iconic ears sculpted into the side. Sarah and I were bouncing off the walls with anticipation to finally go to the parks.That first morning was just indescribable. Walking through the entrance gate into the one and only Magic Kingdom, it was like being transported into a real life fairy tale. The iconic Cinderella's castle was right there, looming beautifully in front of us. We just had to stop and take a million pictures in front of it.Then the adventures really began! We started off by going on all the classic Disney rides like It's A Small World, the Haunted Mansion, and the Mad Tea Party spinners. That one made me so dizzy but in the best way possible. We got to meet and take photos with so many of the iconic Disney characters too. Hugging Mickey himself was a moment I'll never forget!One of the highlights was definitely the afternoon parade down Main Street USA. All the beloved Disney characters were there, dancing away on these incredible floats covered in millions of lights and decorations. The music, the energy, the confetti – it was just pure magic.By the time evening rolled around, we were completely exhausted but still pumped for the nighttime fireworks spectacular. Let me tell you, nothing compares to watching those brilliant fireworks exploding over Cinderella's castle, synchronized perfectly to that iconic Disney soundtrack. My jawwas on the floor the entire time. Easily one of the most amazing things I've ever experienced!We spent several more days just bouncing around between the different Disney parks – Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom. Each one was more awesome than the last with mind-blowing rides, shows, characters, and attractions around every corner. I seriously don't think my brain could handle much more Disney amazingness.Some other super cool experiences were going on the new Guardians of the Galaxy indoor coaster which launched us backwards into an insane glow-in-the-dark adventure. We also got to design and take home our very own customized lightsabers from the Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge area of Hollywood Studios. I felt like such a real-life Jedi getting to build my own lightsaber!The safari ride through the gigantic Animal Kingdom park was another unforgettable experience. We rode around in these rugged truck vehicles, getting up close and personal with live elephants, lions, zebras and more roaming right up to our vehicles. It was like being transported to the plains of Africa!Of course no Disney trip would be complete without doing a ton of shopping and bringing home lots of souvenirs. We eachgot to pick out our very own set of Mickey ears, plus about a million other little toys, shirts, accessories and more. My personal favorite was the super cool light-up Buzz Lightyear figure I got.Man, I could just go on and on forever about all the amazing things we did and experienced at Disney World. Without a doubt, it was the best vacation ever and my favorite childhood memories were made. From the incredible rides and attractions, to meeting all the iconic characters, taking in the shows and fireworks spectaculars, eating more junk food than I thought was humanly possible – it was just all so epically awesome.Honestly, I'm still riding the high from our Disney adventures weeks later. Part of me never wants that feeling of magic and wonderment to end. I'm already bugging my parents about going back to Disney again ASAP because let's be real, once you've experienced the amazing world of Disney, you get instantly hooked and just can't get enough!So there you have it – the tales of my most awesome summer vacation ever at the happiest place on Earth. I don't think any future trips can ever hope to top the sheer amazingness of our Disney adventures. I'll never forget the incredible sights and experiences for as long as I live. Yep, I'm officially a Disney kid for life now and proudly shouting it fromthe rooftops! Maybe I'll even grow up to be a Disney Imagineer and help create the magic myself someday. A kid can dream, right?Welp, I'm getting a little sleepy now after reliving all those exciting memories. Time for me to hit the sack and keep on dreaming about my next Disney adventure! Thanks for reading all about my awesome summer vacation. The end!。

对于“展览”一词的意思甚至没有特别确切的定义，更不用说“专业”的了2.Surprisingly enough, at the time of writing, this is the one area ofexhibition design still dominated by amateurs.十分令人惊讶的是，在写该文的时候，在此类设计仍是由外行主宰的展示设计领域3.The exquisite market stall remains commonplace throughout theworld.精美的市场摊仍在世界上随处可见4.Plastics, for instance, in their crudest form along with detailedspecifications of their properties, could be sold to a manufacturer who might only make part of a product which is passed on to another assembler, who might make the final product to sell to you or me.例如，以最初形态带有详细性能说明书的塑料可以被卖给可能只制作产品部件的生产商，然后将这些部件卖给另一组装厂，进而生产出最后可能卖给你我的产品5.Of course, as soon as information is brought in beside the product,things start to get complicated.当然，一旦产品边上引入信息，事情就开始变得复杂了6.In any such display the “curator” should be trying to communicatedirectly with the actual user. There is no intermediary here; the basic circumstances are as primitive as the market stall.在任何此类展览中，“策展人”都应该尽量与实际用户直接沟通，这里没有中间人，最基础的环境和市场摊位一样原是如初Unit 41.He should be dressed in an expensively cut matt black “suit” maybesipping a can of the latest fashionable lager and balancing.他应该身着昂贵的深黑色西装，或许同时品着一听最时髦的拉格，脚穿名牌鞋2.And anyway it wasn’t fair to all the other talented people workinghere.而且无论如何这对在此工作的有才人都不公平3.Then I realized that it doesn’t affect the way you think about yourwork, just the way that you can do it.然后我意识到这并不影响你思考你设计的方式，而只是影响你设计的方式4.What CD-ROM should be doing is enabling you to alter the story.CD-ROM应该做的就是让你能够改变剧情5.It’s just that most of the software coming out which proclaimsinteractivity isn’t.只是大多数问世的软件都声称具有互动性，其实不然Unit 51.Why is it different with the Graz trade fair poster, which alsorepresents a tapering shape none of us has seen?对于一个还表现了一个我们从未见过的圆锥体形状的格拉茨商品展销会海报来说有何不同之处2.Merely to ask this question is to remind the reader at last of thegigantic over-simplification that lies in discussing the rendering of space without reference to modeling, that is, the rendering of light and shade.仅仅问这个问题是为了最后提醒读者，在探讨空间表现的同时没有涉及到造型（即明暗表现），这样做未免过于简单了3.In light and shade Western artists have discovered a means of vastlyreducing the ambiguity of shapes as seen from one side.在明暗上西方艺术家发现一种手段可以最大程度的减少形状从侧面看所产生的多义性4.At any rate, the decorators of classical antiquity must have known ofour ability to switch between various readings, even of shaded objects, “as fancy directs” for they used the most striking pattern of this kind, the reversible cubes, on walls and pavements.不管怎样，古典时期的装饰家一定知道我们能够凭借想象对甚至有明暗的物体作出不同的解读，因为他们在墙面和人行道上采用了这种最为明显的图案--可逆立方体5.We begin to see a little more clearly that these tests rely on whatHogarth called the “mutually compleating of ideas”, the consistent interaction of clues.我们开始逐清晰的理解到，这些检验依赖贺加斯所谓的“概念的相互完善”即线索的连续互动Unit 61.It was a phenomenon that any designer of today, however, shouldbuild into the masterplan.然而，当今任何一个设计者都应该把此类情况归纳于总体规划2.Regional & Town Planning is perhaps the most straightforward of thecategories and includes primarily those projects where a new town or community has been designed on a previously unoccupied site, much like Brasilia.区域和城镇规划可能是诸多城市规划领域中最容易理解的，包括对先前无人居住的地点上设计新镇和社区的项目，和巴西利亚很像3.Here the concept of evolutionary time is illustrated by showing notjust the process of disuse and decay, but the process of revitalization and, sometimes, new use for existing areas.在此，不仅通过说明废弃和褪变的过程，还通过说明振兴的过程，有时，包括对旧地新用的过程对时间深化的概念进行解释4.How soon and in what ways the trees and other plant materials willgrow is vitally important.树木和其他植物的生长时间和方式极为重要5.One of the examples shows how the necessity of using a retentionpond on the site focused the design into new and uniqueconfiguration of benefit, both to the environment and the users of thesite.诸多例子之一表明规划用地有必要用澄清池，使得设计变得新颖独特，其重心兼顾环境和使用者的利益Unit 71.Stored or displayed at his two private Heritage Villages for Arts andCulture, the first of which was built 30 minutes from downtownShanghai, Wong’s collection has grown, in a mere five years, toinclude more than 150 notable structures, clustered on roughly 40 acres.王先生收藏和展示于他的两个私人的文化艺术遗产村，第一个离上海市中心30分钟车程，仅仅在5年内，其收藏多达150多个著名的建筑结构，集中存放在40英亩的区域内2.Even more important to Wong, though, is the fact that stones are old,purchased from a small village that wanted a modern, paved road.然而，对于王先生更为重要的是。
