全新版大学英语第二版第二册Unit2课文译文及参考答案
一个疑惑不解的小孩提的一个问题促使卡尔·格林思考:虽然他没有贵重的财物,但他在其他许多方面却是富有的。
富足的一生卡尔·格林首次面对这个问题,是在2003年12月初,我第一次为救世军摇铃募捐的时候。
当时我就站在沃尔玛商场入口处门外,对每一位向我的红壶里投入捐款的人都报以一声“谢谢”和一个微笑。
一位穿着整洁的妇人牵着她的幼子向放壶的台子走过来。
她在钱包里摸着找钱时,孩子抬头看了我一眼,问我:“你穷吗?”当时他眼里充满疑惑和好奇,时至今日仍历历在目。
“嗯,”我结结巴巴,边想边回答,“我比有些人拥有的多,但比其他人拥有的少。
”母亲因为孩子问了一个在社交上不该问的问题,训斥了他一顿,他俩便匆匆地赶去购物。
但是孩子的问题却一直在我的心头挥之不去。
我从不认为自己“穷”,但有些事我不可否认。
每当我填1040税务申报表时,我都属于收入最低的档次之一。
在过去的三十五年中,我只出去度过一次假。
我的电视机是黑白的,还是八年前别人送给我的。
然而,想要得到其他那么多人都有的物质的东西,对我来说,只不过是转瞬即逝的念头而已。
我的汽车是1999年的产品,到现在开了十万五千英里,已经很破很旧了,但是它依然可靠。
我的住房不大,但是很安静,住着挺舒心。
我的衣服很适合于我的工作,主要都在户外。
我对计算机的很少的需求,可以在图书馆得到解决。
尽管有些东西我没有,我并不感到贫穷。
这是为什么?五十三年来我一直非常健康。
我不但不生病,而且精力充沛,情绪饱满。
锻炼对我而言是确确实实的快事,我乐意长距离步行,越走越有劲。
我喜爱步行后随之产生的一种“什么都干得了”的心态。
我还十分珍惜我的创作才能。
当我写出美丽的诗句或编造出能把人逗乐的笑话时,我内心感到很富有。

Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11.This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12.The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balancebetween the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1)The text begins with an anecdote.2)His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in Chinaand the West.3)He winds up the text with a suggestion in the form of a question.2.Chinese1)Show a child how to do something, or tech by holding the hand2)Give greater priority to developing skills at an early age, believing thatcreativity can be promoted over timeAmericans1)Teach children that they should rely on themselves for solutions toproblems2)Put more emphasis on fostering creativity in young children, thinkingskills can be picked up laterLanguage Sense Enhancement(1)Summarizing(2)value originalityand independence (3)contrast between (4)in terms of(5)harbor(6)fearful(7)comparable(8)promote creativity(9)emerge(10)p icked upLanguage Focus VocabularyI1.1)insert2)on occasion3)investigate4)In retrospect 5)initial6)phenomena7)attached8)make up for9)is awaiting10)not; in the least11)promote12)emerged2.1) a striking contrast between the standards of living in the north of thecountry and the south.2)is said to be superior to synthetic fiber.3)as a financial center has evolved slowly.4)is not relevant to whether he is a good lawyer.5)by a little-known sixteen-century Italian poet have found their way intosome English magazines.3.1)be picked up; can’t accomplish; am exaggerating2)somewhat; the performance; have neglected; they apply to3)assist; On the other hand; are valid; a superiorII1)continual2)continuous 3)continual4)continuous2.1)principal2)principal3)principle 4)principles5)principalIII1.themselves2.himself/herself3.herself/by herself/on her own4.itself5.ourselves6.yourself/by yourself/on your ownComprehensive Exercises I.cloze1.(1)contrast(2)exaggerating(3)priority(4)on the otherhand (5)promoting(6)pick up(7)assist(8)accomplish(9)occasion(10)n eglecting(11)w orthwhile(12)s uperior2.(1)end(2)perform(3)facing(4)competent (5)equipped(6)designed(7)approach(8)rest(9)definitely(10)q ualityII.translation1.(1)It takes an enormous amount of courage to make a departure from thetradition.(2)Tom used to be very shy, but this time he was bold enough to give aperformance in front of a large audience.(3)Many educators think it desirable to foster the creative spirit in the childat an early age.(4)Assuming this painting really is a masterpiece, do you think it’sworthwhile to buy it?(5)If the data is statistically valid, it will throw light on the problem we areinvestigating.2.To improve our English, it is critical to do more reading, writing, listening and speaking. Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing inyour head you cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.The Salvation Army is a religious charitable organization.

1 On university campuses in Europe, mass socialist or communist movements gave rise to increasingly violent clashes between the establishment and the college students, with their new and passionate commitment to freedom and justice.在欧洲的大学校园里,大学生以新的姿态和激情地投入到自由和正义的事业中去,大规模的社会主义或共产主义运动引发了他们与当权者之间日益升级的暴力冲突。
2 These days political, social and creative awakening seems to happen not because of college, but in spite of it. Of course, it’s true that higher education is still important. For example, in the UK, Prime Minister Blair was close to achieving his aim of getting 50 per cent of all under thirties into college by 2010 (even though a cynic would say that this was to keep them off the unemployment statistics).现在,政治、社会和创造意识的觉醒似乎不是凭借大学的助力,而是冲破其阻力才发生的。
当然,一点不假,高等教育仍然重要。
例如,在英国,布莱尔首相几乎实现了到2010 年让50%的30 岁以下的人上大学的目标,(即使愤世嫉俗的人会说,这是要把他们排除在失业统计数据之外)。

横杆升到了17英尺。
比他个人的最高记录高出3英寸。
迈克尔·斯通面临的是其撑竿跳高生涯中最具挑战性的一天。
尽管赛跑决赛一小时前就已经结束,看台上仍然观众满座,足有20,000人上下。
撑竿跳高确实是所有田径比赛中最精彩的项目。
它融合了体操运动员的优雅与健美运动员的力量。
它还具有飞翔的特征,对观看该项目比赛的观众来说,飞跃两层楼的高度简直是一件不可思议的事情。

从小到大,母亲给迈克尔念过无数关于飞翔的故事。
她的故事总是从高空俯瞰描述大地。
她对细节的激情和酷爱使得迈克尔的梦境色彩缤纷、绚丽无比。
迈克尔总是重复做着一个梦。
他在乡间大路上飞奔。
当他奔跑在金色的麦田之间时,总是把开过的机车一路甩在身后。
就在他深深吸上一口气的瞬间,他开始从地面一跃而起,就像一头雄鹰那样开始翱翔。
他飞越的都是母亲故事里描述的地方。
无论他飞向何方,他都怀着母爱所赐予他的自由精神,用敏锐的目光观察入微。
可他的父亲却不是个梦想家。

全新版大学英语综合教程(第二版)第2册课文翻译Unit 1 Text A哈佛大学教育学教授霍华德·加德纳回忆其中国之行,阐述他对中西方不同的学习方式的看法。
Learning, Chinese-Style1987年春,我和妻子埃伦带着我们18个月的儿子本杰明在繁忙的中国东部城市南京住了一个月,同时考察中国幼儿园和小学的艺术教育情况。
然而,我和埃伦获得的有关中美教育观念差异的最难忘的体验并非来自课堂,而是来自我们在南京期间寓居的金陵饭店的大堂。
我们的房门钥匙系在一块标有房间号的大塑料板上。
酒店鼓励客人外出时留下钥匙,可以交给服务员,也可以从一个槽口塞入钥匙箱。
由于口子狭小,你得留神将钥匙放准位置才塞得进去。
本杰明爱拿着钥匙走来走去,边走边用力摇晃着。
他还喜欢试着把钥匙往槽口里塞。
由于他还年幼,不太明白得把钥匙放准位置才成,因此总塞不进去。
本杰明一点也不在意。
他从钥匙声响中得到的乐趣大概跟他偶尔把钥匙成功地塞进槽口而获得的乐趣一样多。
我和埃伦都满不在乎,任由本杰明拿着钥匙在钥匙的槽口鼓捣。
他的探索行为似乎并无任何害处。
但我很快就观察到一个有趣的现象。
饭店里任何一个中国工作人员若在近旁,都会走过来看着本杰明,见他初试失败,便都会试图帮忙。
他们会轻轻握紧本杰明的手,直接将它引向钥匙的槽口,进行必要的重新定位,并帮他把钥匙插入槽口。
然后那位“老师”会有所期待地对着我和埃伦微笑,似乎等着我们说声谢谢——偶尔他会微微皱眉,似乎觉得我俩没有尽到当父母的责任。
我很快意识到,这件小事与我们在中国要做的工作直接相关:考察儿童早期教育(尤其是艺术教育)的方式,揭示中国人对创造性活动的态度。
因此,不久我就在与中国教育工作者讨论时谈起了钥匙槽口一事。
TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO LEARN我的中国同行,除了少数几个人外,对此事的态度与金陵饭店工作人员一样。
既然大人知道怎么把钥匙塞进槽口——这是处理槽口一事的最终目的,既然孩子还很年幼,还没有灵巧到可以独自完成要做的动作,让他自己瞎折腾会有什么好处呢?他很有可能会灰心丧气发脾气——这当然不是所希望的结果。

新视野大学英语(第二版)第二册Unit 1答案Unit 1Section AI Comprehension of The Text1. The attitude is that if one is not moving ahead he is falling behind.2. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. (People budget it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; they also charge for it.) They do this because time is a precious resource.3. Everyone is in a rush — often under pressure. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going, restlessly seeking attention in a store or elbowing others as they try to complete their shopping.4. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly and they resent someone else ―wasting‖ it beyond a certain appropriate point.5.

They communicate rapidly through faxes, phone calls or emails rather than through personal contacts.7.

Appendix IKey to Exercises (Units 1-8)Unit 1Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:Ways of learning is the topic of this unit. It is also the topic of the song you are about to listen to, called Teach Your Children sung by Crosby, Stills and Nash.Teach Your ChildrenCrosby, Stills and NashYou, who are on the road,Must nave a code that you can live by.And so, become yourselr,Because the past is just a goodbye.Teach your cbildren well,Their lather's hell did slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,The one they picks, the one you'll mow by.Don't you ever ash them why, ir they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.Appendix I - 93 -And you, oi tender years,Can't know the rears that your elders grew by.Ana so please help them with your youtb,They seek the truth before tbey can die.Teacb your parents well,Tbeir children's bell will slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,Tbe one tbey picks, tbe one you'll know by.Don t you ever ask them why, ir tbey told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know tbey love you.The first part of die song is about how parents can inspire their children through sharing with them their dreams, their hopes for a better life. It starts with advice on how you need a set of rules, "a code diat you can live by," to guide you on the road of life. Only then will you be able to fully realise all that is within you and "become yourself." Therefore, parents need to teach their children well.And children ¡ª "you of tender years" ¡ª also have something to teach their parents, for learning is not a one-way street. Children shouldshare their own dreams with their parents so that young and old can get to understand each otiier better.That said, one should not go too far. For some things are perhaps better left unsaid between parents and children. "Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry." At such mo?ments all that there is left to do is to look at one another and sigh, happy in each otiier's love.Part II Text A Text Organization1. 1) The text begins with an anecdote/incident.2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3) The end winds up the text with a suggestion in die form of a question.Points for Comparison/Contrast Chinese Americans1) ways to learn to accomplish a task show a child how to do something, or teach by holding his hand teach children that they should rely on themselves for solutions to problems94 - Appendix I2) attitudes to creativity and skills give greater priority to de?veloping skills at an early age, believing creativity can be promoted over time put more emphasis on fos?tering creativity in young children, thinking skills can be picked up laterVocabulary1) insert 2) on occasion3) investigate 4) In retrospect5) initial 6) phenomena7) attached 8) make up for9) is awaiting 10) exception11) not... in the least 12) promote13) working on 14) in due course15) emerged1) There is a striking contrast between the standard of living in the north of the country andthe south.2) Natural fiber is said to be superior to synthetic fiber.3) The city's importance as a financial center has evolved slowly.4) His nationality is not relevant to whether he is a good lawyer.5) The poems by a little-known sixteenth-century Italian poet have found their way into some English magazines.3. 1) Chinese isn't a subject that can be picked up in a month. You can't accomplish your goal of mastering the language unless you workat it for years. Well, it sounds as if I'm exag?gerating the difficulties, but the fact is I'm only telling the truth.2) The principal is somewhat disappointed with the performance of the children. From what she has gathered, some of the teaching staff have neglected their pupils. She has just announced that strict work regulations have been made and that they apply to both Chinese and overseas teachers.3) The teacher-directed and the child-directed approaches to teaching art represent two ex?tremes of opinion. Too many teacher-directed activities cannot be expected to effectively assisLchildren in learning because of the rigid structure. On the other hand, too many child-directed activities may see a curriculum that is totally unstructured and out of con?trol. There are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guided approach would be a superior wayAppendix I - 95 -to guide children's development. This approach combines some form of structure with the child leading the direction.II.

Here I would like to make three relevant points.First, wide reading should be taken as a priority in the learning process, because it is through reading that we get the most language input. Next, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. On the one hand, rote learning/learning by rote is indeed of little help, but on the other hand, memorization/learning by heart with a good understanding will cer?tainly be of benefit/do good to us. With an enormous store of excellent essays in our heads, we will find it much easier to express ourselves in English. Finally, it is critical that we should put what we have learned into practice. By doing more reading, writing, listening and speaking, we will be able to accomplish the task of perfecting our English.Part III TextBComprehension Check1. c2. c3. d4. a5. c6. bTranslation(#ja Appendix III)Appendix I - 97 -Language Practice1. adopt3. plus5. furthermore7. annual9. pace11. on demand13. perspective 15. fell apart17. access19. deposit2. account4. ended up6. fund8. keeping track of10. intends12. devise14. undoubtedly16. protest18. resources20. from your point of viewPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksModel paperHow I Learn at CollegeI went to school in a small town near Chengdu and now I am studying law at Fudan University in Shanghai. Passing from one to the other you have to get used to many new things, not the least being the different way of learning.At school I found my timetable full throughout the day. One lesson came close on the heels ofanother with little time to call one's own. At university, in contrast, only a few hours of each day aretaken up with classes or lectures. In the time made available you are expected to learn on your own.When and where is up to you. At the same time what you are meant to learn shifts from memorizingmasses of facts to developing an ability to understand theories and present arguments. There are, ofcourse, still facts to be learned. One should not exaggerate the differences. Nevertheless, learning atuniversity certainly teaches me greater self-reliance and to think for myself. (169 words)- 9& - Appendix IUnit 2Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:You have heard about Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, haven't you? He came from a poor family, but rose to become one of the most fondly remembered presidents in his country's history. There are many stories about him. Here is one of them.When Abraham Lincoln was young he worked in a store. As a clerk he proved honest and efficient. One day a woman came into the store and bought some articles. They added up to two dollars and six and a quarter cents, or the young clerk thought they did. The bill was paid, and the woman was entirely satisfied. But the young store-keeper, not feeling quite sure as to the accuracy of his calculation, added up the items once more. To his dismay he found that the sum total should have been only two dollars. "I've made her pay six and a quarter cents too much," said Abe, disturbed. It was a very small sum, and many clerks would have dismissed it as such. But Abe was too conscien?tious to forget about the overcharge."The money must be paid back," he decided. This would have been easy enough had the woman lived just around the corner, but, as the young man knew, she lived two or three miles away. This, however, did not alter the matter. It was night, but he closed and locked the store, and walked to the home of his customer. Having arrived there, he explained the matter, paid over the six and a quarter cents, and returned satisfied. This anecdote won him a new name: Honest Abe.Appendix I - 99 -Part II Text Alext Organization1.Parts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1-4 The waiter was disappointed to find that the Richest Man in America led so simple a life.Part Two Paras 5-13 Being friendly, easy-going and never flashy, Walton carries on like plain folks and never wants any special treatment.

【艺术类院校大学英语第一册】课文翻译及课后答案
英语第一册课文翻译及课后答案(9~16)第九单元歌剧的性质三百多年以来,歌剧已经成为一种最吸引人的音乐娱乐形式。
各具独特的魅力与和他有关的一些分不开——咏叹调,歌唱家和角色,更不用说它的首映夜了。
卡门,咪咪,维奥莱塔,特里斯坦无论是在现实中还是故事中,是什么样的人物能拥有一代又一代那么重视的观众呢?歌剧就是演唱出来的戏剧。
它把声乐、器乐资源---独唱家、合奏,合唱团、乐队、芭蕾与诗歌、戏剧、表演、哑剧、舞台场景、还有戏服等办法融合起来。
把多种元素融为一体并不简单,这一点一直让音乐史上一些最有聪明才智的人大伤脑筋。
乍一看,歌剧似乎不太可能让观众那么容易相信它。
因为它呈现给我们的是一些人沉浸在剧情中不用对话用歌声来表达感情。
有理由问这样一个问题(从歌剧诞生以来文学家们既已经尖锐地问过了):一种这么不自然的艺术如何让人信服呢?这个问题忽略了一点:让艺术一直都具有激情的最基本的东西:不是去复制自然,而是提高我们对自然的意识。
的确,现实中的人们不会对唱,也不会像莎士比亚笔下的人物那样用无韵诗对话,他们也不住在为方便观众看见里面而缺少一面墙的房间里。
所有的艺术使用一些艺术家和观众都能接受的传统,歌剧使用的传统比诗歌、绘画、戏剧、或电影更明显但本质有不一样。
一旦我们已经接受毯子能飞的事实,也就很容易相信它也可以带上把王子的行李。
歌剧在诗化的戏剧中具有独特的作用。
他利用人类的声音以其独有的力量把人类最基本的情感——爱、恨、妒嫉、快乐、悲伤对观众形成强大的冲击。
现实的逻辑在歌剧的舞台上被艺术超越现实的逻辑所替代,被音乐对心灵产生的力量所替代。

大学英语第二册课后段落翻译参考答案
第二册课后段落翻译参考答案Unit 1 (p.20)To improve our English, it is critical to do more reading, writing, listening and speaking. Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your head you cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English. Unit 2 (p.48)With more and more donations coming in, our university will be much better off financially next year. We will thus be able to focus on the most important task that we, educators, must take on: to encourage students to attain their scholarly / academic goals, to train them to be dependable and responsible individuals, to prepare them for the life ahead, and to guide them in their pursuit of spiritual as well as material satisfaction.Unit 3 (p. 77)George, the son of Mr. Johnson, liked listening to heavy metal music in the evenings, which made it hard for other residents in the community to fall asleep. Eventually the exhausted neighbors lost their patience and decided on direct interference. They called Mr. Johnson to tell him in a frank manner what they were thinking. Mr. Johnson assured them that he would certainly settle the issue. As soon as he put down the phone he scolded his son, “What has come over you? You should know better than to disturb others for your own amusement.”In the end George traded his CDs for computer games software from his classmates.Unit 4 (p. 104)Perhaps you envy me for being able to work from home on the computer. I agree that the Internet has made my job a lot easier. I can write, submit and edit articles via email, chat with my colleagues on line and discuss work with my boss. With a click of the mouse, I can get all the data I need and keep up with the latest news. But then, communicating through the Net can be frustrating at times. The system may crash. Worse still, without the emotional cues of face-to-face communication, the typed words sometimes seem difficult to interpret.Unit 5 (p. 148)Numerous facts bear out the argument / statement / claim that in order to recover speedily from negative emotion, you should allow yourself to cry. You needn’t / don’t have to be ashamed of crying. Anxiety and sorrow can flow out of the body along with tears.Consider the case of / Take Donna. Her son unfortunately died in a car accident. The intensity of the blow made her unable to cry. She said, “It was not until twoweeks later that I began to cry. And then I felt as if a big stone had been lifted from my shoulders. It was the tears that brought me back to earth and helped me survive the crisis.”Unit 6 (p. 175)Nancy Hopkins is a biology professor at MIT. She craves knowledge and works hard. However, as a scientist, she could not help noticing all kinds of indications of gender inequality on campus. Men and women professors did the same work, but when it came to promotion the administrators were rather selective. It was ironic that after so much cultural progress, women were still at a disadvantage in institutions of higher education. When her request for more lab space was refused, she knew she had to fight. So she gritted her teeth and complained to the President. The fight ended in victory and Nancy was converted into a gender-equity advocate.Unit 7 (p. 202)Though how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to many people, linguistics believe that English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: the Indo-European parent language. English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.Unit 8 (p. 228)This village was once famous for its beautiful natural surroundings. All the year round, the trees were green and the flowers in bloom. Clear streams flowed out of the hills through a checkerboard of rice fields. Birds sang all day, and deer came and went in a leisurely manner. However, with the coming of DDT and other pesticides, an evil spell seemed to have settled over the village. Misfortunes came one after another. Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village doctor. The village square, once throbbing with life, was now deserted.。

大学英语(2)部分课后练习答案及课文译文
解析:过去分词短语相当于一个定语从句,与主语的逻辑关系为被动关 系,相当于“which is founded”。整个句子的意思是:“创建于1951年的 国际研究大学是一所军事学院。”
10. C 解析:本题需要选择whose来充当关系代词,作定语修饰名词,相当于 所修饰成分的前置所有格。整个句子的意思是:“一个我不知道名字的 学生来看望我。”
3. D 解析:在4个选项中,除了as能够引导非限制性定语从句外,其余都不 可以。整个句子的意思是:“代表们提出了许多提议,这正是我们所希 望的。”
4. A 解析:因为one of前有定冠词the,所以定语从句应该是修饰one的,谓 语动词要用第三人称单数。整个句子的意思是:“玛丽是唯一要被转走 的队员。”
13. D 解析:句子的意思是:“这就是我所想告诉你的”。这是一个表语从 句,后面句子缺少一个作tell宾语的连接词,因此只能选择what。 14. C 解析:句子的意思是:“班里的同学们不理解这句话的意思是什 么。”疑问句作宾语从句时语序应该使用陈述句的语序,其他选项都不 是陈述句语序,故正确但为C。 15. B 解析:及物动词doubt后面缺少一个宾语,由于宾语部分已经完整,这 里只需要连词that起连接作用,而且在句子里不充当成分。句子的意思 是:“我们不怀疑他能做的很好。”
11. B 解析:第一个空需要选择when来引导定语从句表示时间,一般来讲表 示时间“time”一词的定语从句只用when引导。第二个空需要选择表示地 点的关系副词where来引导定语从句。整个句子的意思是:“人类在宇宙 中随心所欲自由飞翔的日子终归会到来。”
12. D 解析:本题考查判断关系代词和关系副词的区别。此时需要准确判断先 行词在定语从句中的成分(主、谓、宾、定、状)。在本题中所缺部分为 宾语,而where, that, on which都不能起到宾语的作用,只有the one既可 作主句的表语,又可作从句的宾语,更重要的是它可以省略关系代词。 整个句子的意思是:“这是你几天前参观的那家博物馆吗?”
全新版大学英语第二版第二册Unit2课文译文及参考答案
一个疑惑不解的小孩提的一个问题促使卡尔·格林思考:虽然他没有贵重的财物,但他在其他许多方面却是富有的。
富足的一生卡尔·格林首次面对这个问题,是在2003年12月初,我第一次为救世军摇铃募捐的时候。
当时我就站在沃尔玛商场入口处门外,对每一位向我的红壶里投入捐款的人都报以一声“谢谢”和一个微笑。
一位穿着整洁的妇人牵着她的幼子向放壶的台子走过来。
她在钱包里摸着找钱时,孩子抬头看了我一眼,问我:“你穷吗?”当时他眼里充满疑惑和好奇,时至今日仍历历在目。
“嗯,”我结结巴巴,边想边回答,“我比有些人拥有的多,但比其他人拥有的少。
”母亲因为孩子问了一个在社交上不该问的问题,训斥了他一顿,他俩便匆匆地赶去购物。
但是孩子的问题却一直在我的心头挥之不去。
我从不认为自己“穷”,但有些事我不可否认。
每当我填1040税务申报表时,我都属于收入最低的档次之一。
在过去的三十五年中,我只出去度过一次假。
我的电视机是黑白的,还是八年前别人送给我的。
然而,想要得到其他那么多人都有的物质的东西,对我来说,只不过是转瞬即逝的念头而已。
我的汽车是1999年的产品,到现在开了十万五千英里,已经很破很旧了,但是它依然可靠。
我的住房不大,但是很安静,住着挺舒心。
我的衣服很适合于我的工作,主要都在户外。
我对计算机的很少的需求,可以在图书馆得到解决。
尽管有些东西我没有,我并不感到贫穷。
这是为什么?五十三年来我一直非常健康。
我不但不生病,而且精力充沛,情绪饱满。
锻炼对我而言是确确实实的快事,我乐意长距离步行,越走越有劲。
我喜爱步行后随之产生的一种“什么都干得了”的心态。
我还十分珍惜我的创作才能。
当我写出美丽的诗句或编造出能把人逗乐的笑话时,我内心感到很富有。
通过写作而获得的洞察力,不断地令我惊奇。
而与那么多写作朋友交谈,是我乐趣的主要源泉之一。
但是在我生活中,有一个重要方面我并不那么富有。
在一个对物资财富的追求投入如此之多心力的社会中,我觉得很不自在。

新标准大学英语综合教程第二册 课文译文与翻译参考答案
UNIT1 COLLEGE CULTURE大学已经不再特别了有这么一种说法:“要是你能记得20世纪60年代的任何事情,你就没有真正经历过那段岁月。
” 对于在大麻烟雾中度过大学时光的那些人,这话可能是真的。
但是,20世纪60年代有一件事人人都记得,那就是:上大学是你一生中最激动人心、最刺激的经历。
20世纪60年代,加州的高校把本州变成了世界第七大经济实体。
然而,加州大学的主校园伯克利分校也以学生示威、罢课以及激进的政治氛围而著名。
1966年,罗纳德•里根竞选加州州长,他问加州是否允许“一所伟大的大学被喧闹的、唱反调的少数人征服。
” 自由派人士回答说,大学之所以伟大正是因为它们有能力容忍喧闹的、唱反调的少数人。
在欧洲的大学校园里,大学生以新的姿态和激情投入到争取自由和正义的事业中去,大规模的社会主义或共产主义运动引发了他们与当权者之间日益升级的暴力冲突。
许多抗议是针对越南战争的。
可是在法国,巴黎大学的学生与工会联盟,发动了一场大罢工,最终导致戴高乐总统辞职。
20世纪60年代大学生活的特点并不仅仅是激进的行动。
不论在什么地方,上大学都意味着你初次品尝真正自由的滋味,初次品尝深更半夜在宿舍或学生活动室里讨论人生意义的滋味。
你往往得上了大学才能阅读你的第一本禁书,看你的第一部独立影人电影,或者找到和你一样痴迷吉米•亨德里克斯或兰尼•布鲁斯的志同道合者。
那是一段难以想象的自由时光,你一生中最无拘无束的时光。
可如今那份激情哪儿去了?大学怎么了?现在,政治、社会和创造意识的觉醒似乎不是凭借大学的助力,而是冲破其阻力才发生的。
当然,一点不假,高等教育仍然重要。
例如,在英国,布莱尔首相几乎实现了到2010年让50%的30岁以下的人上大学的目标(即使愤世嫉俗的人会说,这是要把他们排除在失业统计数据之外)。
不过,大学教育已不再是全民重视的话题了。
如今,大学被视为人们急于逃离的一种小城镇。
有些人辍学,但大多数已经有些麻木,还是坚持混到毕业,因为离开学校实在是太费事了。

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。

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II课后 段落翻译和答案 (Unit 1-5)
中国书法是一门独特的艺术,是世界上独一无二的艺术瑰宝。
中国书法艺术的形成、发展与汉文字的产生与演进存在着密不可分的关系。
汉字在漫长的演变发展过程中,一方面起着交流思想、继承文化的重要作用,另一方面它本身又形成了一种独特的艺术。
书法能够通过作品把书法家个人的生活感受、学识、修养、个性等折射出来,所以,通常有“字如其人”的说法。
中国书法不仅是中华民族的文化瑰宝,而且在世界文化艺术宝库中独放异彩。
Chinese calligraphy is a unique art and the unique art treasure in the world. The formation and development of the Chinese calligraphy is closely related to the emergence and evolution of Chinese characters.In this long evolutionary process, Chinese characters have not only played an important role in exchanging ideas and transmitting culture but also developed into a unique art form. Calligraphic works well reflect calligraphers' personal feelings, knowledge, self-cultivation, personality, and so forth, thus there is an expression that "seeing the calligrapher's handwriting is like seeing the person". As one of the treasures of Chinese culture, Chinese calligraphy shines splendidly in the world's treasure house of culture and art.第二册Unit 2近年来,随着互联网技术的发展,我国的数字化教育资源建设取得了巨大的成就。

这些时尚原理保持不变。
尽管时尚在变,但是这些原理却不变。
他们是识别和预测时尚流行趋势的坚实基础。
时尚流行的基本原理包括以下几条:1.时尚的流行一般采取渐进的方式,很少采取突变的方式。
时尚通常从一种风格逐渐地向另一种风格进化,是进化式的,而不是快速地变化。
这一点经常可以从女裙长度的变化中得到体现。
在一个季节中人们不希望裙子的长度有较大的变化。
一般裙长要在几个季节甚至几年时间里缓慢地增加或减少。
在20世纪50年代后期以及以后的10年里,裙子的长度开始以每年约1英寸的速度缩短,直至变成20世纪60年代后期的超短式样。
在整个70年代,裙子的长度又逐渐增加。
2.消费者创造时尚。
是消费者通过接受一种款式而抛弃另一种款式来决定流行的时尚,而不是设计师或制造商。
尽管设计师、制造商、销售商可以促进或减缓新时尚的流行,但最终对时尚的接受与否还要取决于消费者。
3.价格不会影响时尚的流行。
时尚的流行与否并不取决于价格。
尽管一个新款式推出的价格会很高,但很快会有各种价格变化。
一件向设计师定做的服装售价可能会高达几千美元,但是一旦此款式被仿制并以成衣批量生产,就会出现不同的价格以适合不同层次消费者的要求。
有时仿制品批量生产的速度十分之快,甚至会先与原设计的服装上市。
尽管服装的修饰不同,使用的布料会有区别,做工也有差异,但服装的款式却基本上是相同的。
4.时尚的流行并不取决于商品促销活动。
广告、时装表演、橱窗展示都不能售出顾客不愿购买的商品。
尽管生产厂家与销售商通过广告和促销活动能推动销售,但他们不能决定消费者必须接受哪一种款式。
但是,一旦一种流行时尚已经形成,促销活动的确能够推动这一时尚趋势的发展。
5.时尚流行的结果也常是多而溢。
20世纪初法国著名高级时装设计师保罗波烈曾经说过:“所有的时尚流行的结果都是多而溢”。
这一说法在今天也是正确的。
一旦一种时尚达到其款式的顶峰,一种新的不同外观的时尚就会诞生。
例如在20世纪60年代后期,妇女开始对蓬松的发行感到厌倦,开始最求新的形象。
另外一个例子是20世纪80年代中期突出肩宽的时装外型。
当垫肩开始使妇女看上去像橄榄球运动员时,过大垫肩的时尚就消失了第三单元你能想象一个学医的人最终竟成了一个著名的服装设计师吗?一个天才时装设计师如果你是二十世纪八十年代的一个事业有成的银行家或实业家,你身上穿的很可能是一套阿玛尼西装。
在那个年代,以衣着代表其身份的人的衣橱里基本都有阿玛尼的服饰,阿玛尼西装成了那些年轻有为专业人士的象征。
阿玛尼西装的设计风格将休闲装与正装的款式相融合,使东西方的文化交相辉映。
在二十世纪八十年代,阿玛尼西装成了那些追求成功或者已经成功之人士的最有力的时尚代言物。
阿玛尼西装的设计师具有与生俱来的设计天赋。
1934年,乔治?阿玛尼出生于意大利米兰附近的一个地方。
他在医学院学习过两年,还做过短期的摄影师,之后步入时装界,在一家百货商店做采购员,但没多久他就展现出与生俱来的创作才能。
没有受过正规训练的阿玛尼,在1964年受雇于意大利一个顶级设计工作室的时候,推出了他的第一个男装系列,然后他创立了自己的公司。
1975年,阿玛尼的服装品牌第一次问世。
在阿玛尼的品牌问世之前,时装的选择不是局限于僵硬的正装,就是20世纪60年代休闲的、过分随意的嬉皮装。
阿玛尼设计的夹克外套宽松而有好看,被人们看成是很得人心的变化。
当这个品牌受到女士欢迎时,阿玛尼开始设计女装。
他的很多服饰的特点在于那种现在用他的名字命名的颜色,即混合了淡棕色与灰色的“阿玛尼灰棕色”。
这些极具魅力的套装深受20世纪80年代年轻富有人士(雅皮士)的喜爱。
当他设计的服装开始出现在好莱坞电影中时—里查?基尔曾在《美国舞男》一片中穿着阿玛尼服饰,阿玛尼的名气开始如日中天。
阿玛尼是一名不折不扣的艺术家,他的作品曾分别受邀于纽约博物馆和毕尔巴鄂的古根汉姆博物馆展出。
阿玛尼在当下被看作是20世纪风格代表的大腕之一。
第四单元人与颜色人们一般谈论的颜色有两类:冷色和暖色。
研究人员认为人有两种类型:一类人喜欢冷色调,一类人喜欢暖色调。
暖色有红色、橙色和黄色。
如果色调温暖并且光线充足,人们就会很活跃。
喜欢社交、愿意跟别人呆在一起的人偏爱红色。
冷色包括绿色、蓝色和紫色。
与暖色不同,这些颜色可以使人放松。
在有冷色调的地方,人们往往很安静。
那些喜欢独处的人常常偏爱蓝色。
人们把颜色与不同的物体、情感和节日联系在一起。
比如红色,它是火、热、血液与生命的颜色,人们常说红色令人激动,给人活力,并将其与愤怒这类强烈的情感联系在一起。
红色也用来标识危险,如停车信号和消防车就是红色的。
与红色有关的节日有:国庆节和元旦。
商人知道人们靠颜色来挑选产品。
精明的商人清楚年轻人与老年人,男人和女人有不同的颜色喜好。
幼儿对物体颜色的反应先于对形状的反应。
他们喜欢暖色,即:红、黄、橙色。
随着年龄的增长,他们逐渐开始对物体的形状而不是颜色做出反应。
不同种族和国家的成年人都喜欢蓝色,其次为红色,再次为绿色。
总的来说,女人比男人更喜欢鲜艳的色彩。
你喜欢的颜色甚至可能泄露你的秘密。
你最喜欢的颜色是什么?你喜欢黄色、橙色或红色吗?如果是这样,你肯定是一个乐观主义者,或是一位领导者,或是一个热爱生活、喜欢与人交往和让生活充满刺激的活跃分子。
你喜欢灰色和蓝色吗?那你可能喜欢安静,比较害羞,宁可服从命令也不愿领导别人。
你有悲观者的倾向,至少心理学家是这么说的。
他们当然应该知道,因为他们曾认真地研究过颜色对人类的影响及颜色偏好的意义。
在诸多事实中,他们曾提到:我们并不是在成长的过程中选择自己最喜欢的颜色,而是生来就有这种偏好。
如果你碰巧喜欢褐色,你是一睁眼或至少一旦能看清周围就有此偏爱了。
毫无疑问,颜色的确影响心情。
大多数人觉得呆在黄色的房间比呆在深绿色的房间心情更加舒畅,情绪更加放松;一件红色的衣服可以给最郁闷的冬日带来暖意和好心情。
相反,黑色则使人感到压抑。
伦敦附近泰晤士河上的一座黑色大桥在被重新漆成绿色之前,曾是当地几座大桥中自杀最多的一座。
重漆之后,自杀者的数目立即急剧下降。
如果大桥被漆成粉红色或浅蓝色的话,这个数目可能还会下降更多。
浅色和亮色不仅可以使人更愉快,还可以使人更积极。
如果橙色取代黑色或用灰色来油漆机器的话,工人们会工作得更好,更努力,而且事故会减少,这已经成为一个确凿的事实。
那么记住,在你情绪低落的时候,你总可以用一件新的衬衫或几听油漆使自己拥有快乐的一天。
也要记住,你对朋友或敌人颜色的喜欢的发现会使你进一步了解他们。
另外,不要忘了在你选择一双袜子或一个灯罩的时候,别人可能会猜出你的个性。
第五单元你知道男性与女性舞蹈演员的差异吗?请读下去吧……男女舞蹈演员的差异女性舞蹈演员确实有超越男性舞蹈演员的优势,因为她们开始跳舞的年龄均早得多(7岁与17岁对比)。
家庭的支持也许是一个因素。
正如我们的调查,我们发现鼓励女儿去跳舞的家长明显多于鼓励儿子跳舞的家长(19%比3%)。
相反,男性舞蹈演员,只有当他们下决心成为职业舞蹈家时才会选择跳舞。
百分之七十一的男性告诉我们,与一半稍多一点的女性相比(57%),他们从事专业跳舞是“非常”重要的。
男性舞蹈演员也用了多得多的精力去追求这个目标(82%比59%)。
令人遗憾地是,在舞蹈方面起步晚可能使得掌握技巧很难。
当男性舞蹈演员的训练被耽误时,体形就成了阻碍他们胜出的第一要素(24岁与16岁对比)。
令人意外地是,女性在舞蹈方面早先的优势在她们接近就业时就似乎减小了。
与男性相比,经济压力困扰了女性舞蹈演员,机遇的缺乏、家庭的责任、怀孕、年龄及有限的时间和(家庭的)支持。
除了怀孕、机遇和时间外,罗列这些原因的女性舞蹈演员显然还有较多跳舞造成的损伤。
由于训练不佳而妨碍了他们目标的演员们有着明显的表演焦虑问题。
与女性相比,男性找工作似乎较少有问题。
更多的男性做了专业舞蹈演员工作(61%比22%),而且他们也更有可能获得专业演员的领舞地位(46%比18%)。
女性舞蹈演员即使获得了领衔地位,男性做专职演员明显比女性更普遍(100%比42%)。
这些优势也影响着男性退休的年龄。
男性表演的时间更长,平均起来,退休比女性舞蹈演员晚八年(40岁与32岁对比)。
不过,舞蹈职业对男性和女性的确都延寿。
领舞演员退休明显比独舞或群舞演员晚。
无论专业状态怎样,损伤对结束职业生涯也起着作用。
有慢性腱鞘炎的演员要比没有这种损伤的演员早退休十一年。
同样,脚伤也会导致过早地退休。
了解到大部分舞蹈演员(74%)退休会情感受挫,我们并不吃惊。
但是只有百分之十三发现会出现经济问题。
有趣地是,男性与女性舞蹈演员在处理这类问题时不同。
女性中,如果遇到退休情感不安,女性舞蹈演员会更加频繁地运用心理疗法(34%比4%),然而当她们遇到麻烦时,女性会在职业调换中心解决经济问题。
