英语新闻中的复合定语
在英语中，句子一般采用单个单词作为前置定语，但在新闻报道 中，为了使文章包含尽可能多的新闻信息和内容，记者往往不拘 泥于这种传统的语言现象，而是更加灵活地使用复合定语，即同 时使用两个或多个单词作定语。 例如：
We welcome the dispatch of the peace-keeping force. 我们对派出维持和平部队此举表示欢迎。

His proposal has caused ahuge stir on campuses nationwide and rekindled long-standing arguments about the test.3.The College Board argues that SAT measures the sort of higher-order math andliterary-reasoning skills that students need to succeed in college and later in life and that the test correlates well with freshman-year college grades.4.They have adopted college admission systems based in part on class is automatically admittedto state universities.5.Their worry is that it is only a matter of time before there is pressure to scrap subject-areatests and getting rid of the SAT is the first step in a wretched direction.6.SAT I refers to the tests on higher-order math and literary-reasoning skills. Many critics thinkthe questions are confusing and verbal analogies too obscure.

Read the following statements and decide whether they are true (T) or false (F).True: 1、4、5、8False: 2、3、6、7作业（2）Keys:1. Give the definition of the following terms.1) featurea prominent or special article, story, or department in anewspaper or periodical.2) editorialan article in a publication expressing the opinion of its editors or publishers.3) op-edof or being a newspaper page, usually opposite the editorial page, that features signed articles expressing personal viewpoints4) inverted pyramidThe inverted pyramid is a traditional form of writing in which the news is stacked in paragraphs in order of descending importance. The lead summarizes the principal items of a newsevent. The second paragraph and each succeeding paragraph contain secondary or supporting details in order of decreasing significance. All the paragraphs in the story contain newsworthy information, but each paragraph is less vital than the one before it. Inverted-pyramid form puts the climax of a story at the beginning, in the lead.5) leadA lead is a terse opening paragraph that provides the gist of thestory and invites readers inside.2. What is the difference between hard news and soft news? Hard news events, such as killings, and speeches by leading government officials, are timely and are reported almost automatically by the media. Soft news events, such as a car wash by a fourth-graders to raise money for a classmate with cancer, are not usually considered immediately important or timely to a wide audience. These events still contain elements of news, however, and the media often report them.3. What is the difference between news and features?A news story emphasizes the facts of the event, while the feature displaces the facts to accommodate the human interest of the story.4. What are the major criteria for newsworthiness?ProximityProminenceTimelinessImpactConflict and ControversyUniquenessHuman interest5. What are the principles of news writing?News writing tends to be:1. Impersonal to make it appear objective (to distance thereporter from the story) hence:– Written in the third person– Use of direct speech or indirect speech which is attributed to someone other than the reporter,– Some use of passive verbs but usually only when someone who is being quoted wants to distancethemselves from an issue and to show objectively about nissue.2. About something that has taken place so mostly written in thepast tense.3. Simple –In fact close to the way we talk –relatively shortsentences and words and some use of clichés which the whole audience understand.4. Punchy –it must grab the reader’s attention so often uses:– short rather than long words– active verbs– relatively short sentences– concrete rather than abstract vocabulary– sometimes emotive and colorful vocabulary– some use (but not overuse) of adjectives5. But also relatively formal hence:– no use of contractions– sentences written in full (no elision) or elliptical sentences6. sometimes imagery is used to help create a clearer mentalpicture for the reader.7. often including the reporter’s by-line and/or a date-line6. Read the following headlines and analyze the features ofthe language they use.a) More Iraqis Said to Flee Since Troop RiseWhen passive voice is used in headlines, “to be” is alwaysomitted. Here “are” in “More Iraqis are said to flee…” is omitted. Nouns and noun phrases are often used in headlines to save space. Noun phrases which actually express actions or state are heavily used, and they are derived from verb phrases in order to make the sentences more compact and save space without lowering the amount of information conveyed. Instead of “since the troop rises”, noun phrase “troop rise” is used.b) Insurgent raid kills 22 villagersMost headlines use the present tense-despite the fact that they generally describe past events.

But the H.M.O.’s keep stranding hundreds of thousands of beneficiaries annually by either leaving the program or reducing benefits. So he believes that it is foolisheven to consider throwing more money at this failed system. 12.

Many part-time and temporary workers are more likely to bearthe brunt of a job drought because many companies lay them off first.11. Many states will be under pressure to tighten up eligibility ruleseven further because they have allowed their unemployment insurance reserve funds to run down in recent years, when the good times seemed to make them less urgent. With unemployment rising again, fewer workers are paying into the system just as more former workers need to take money out. 12. The safety net could still suffer a strain because a growing glutof low-skilled workers means wages at the bottom are likely to sink.Lesson 23Answers to the questions1. B2. C3. A4. C13.

Girls are closing the gender gap by taking more rigorous math and science classes. SAT scores are up from two decades ago. More and more kids are going to college.14. The way society viewed teens shifted dramatically around thetime of the Great Depression. Before then, teens worked and were considered virtually grown up. But facing a workplace without jobs, Depression youth turned to education as a consolation prize. As high school attendance rolls swelled, the status of teens as full-fledged members of society declined. Now that they were students rather than workers, they came to seem younger than before.15. What’s distinctly different for today’s teenagers, experts say, isthe level of cultural negativity they’re exp osed to, from the over-the-top sexuality in advertising, television, and film, to the prevalence of gun violence and family dysfunction. Their exposure to risk is so far beyond what other generations have dealt with.16. Family plays a very important role in helping children overcomethe stresses.

The 2005 survey found that about three out of four companies regularly track which websites their employees visit. More than half use surveillance software to scour office e-mail (looking for hot-button keywords like sex in the subject line or body of messages). More than a third extend their snooping to monitor how much time workers spend at the computer, record their keystrokes or log their downloads. And one in four companies reports firing someone for improper e-mail use.2. Heidi Arace and Norma Yetsko distributed via office e-mail what they thought was fun to share, which their bosses found offensive enough. As a result, the two longtime workers were fired.3. Reasons why companies monitor their workers’ computer use include:- to see to it that workers waste less time online and work more efficiently;- to avoid legal trouble;- to guarantee the security;- to avoid the leakage of sensitive information.4. Companies are using two types of spying software: network-based programs that monitor all traffic passing through a system, and programs that sit directly on an employee’s desktop.5. T hey should know the company’s computer-use policy and comply with it. They should assume they’re being monitored, and behave accordingly. They should never bad-mouth the company online. They should not use personal e-mail accounts or post to a blog. They should avoid transmitting any message that could embarrass themselves or others if made public. They should not think instant messaging is less permanent than e-mail. When surfing the Web, they should never click on something flagged NSFW (not safe for work).作业六：文艺体育、企业经济、社会问题Lesson 28Answers to the questions1. C2. A3. B4. A5.

According to Skilling the company was caught by surprise by the sudden collapse of the Internet content delivery market that Enron had hoped to turn into a profitable arena for trading.8. Because Enron was not welcomed either by the dominant regional telephone companies or cable companies, each of which had their own strategies for high-speed Internet business.Lesson 34Answers to the questions1. A2. B3. C4. D5. The statistics suggest that gang members are more likely to sell drugs, assaut innocent folk, steal cars and commit murder.6. The data show that roughly half of the gang members had been involved in a drive-by shooting, 80% carried a concealed weapon and 50% reported taking guns to school.7. Successful intervention programs must aim at boys at this stage.8. The author believes that the society can help some of the gang members to turn over a new leaf by offering them decent regular jobs. One if four gang members said that they would quit the business for a regular wage of $6-7 an hour.Additional Reading1. He shot and killed two people about 7:20 a.m. in West Ambler Johnston Hall. Two-and-a-half hours later, he killed 30 people in Norris Hall and then committed suicide.2.

It has identified problems like communications breakdowns, gaps in the mental health system and confusion over student privacy laws.4.

He also said the school administration did not have all the facts about the first shooting and did not want to spread partial or incorrect information to students.5.

01 Why Tap Water is Better Than Bottled Water?
Bottled water is a drain on the environment: The U.S. public goes through about 50 billion water bottles a year, and most of those plastic containers are not recycled Transporting the bottles and keeping them cold also burns fossil fuels, which give off greenhouse gases. And groundwater pumping by bottled water companies draws heavily on underground aquifers(含水层) and harms watersheds(分水岭), according to the Sierra Club. And some studies suggest it takes up to three liters of water to produce one liter of bottled water. Yet more than $100 billion is spent every year on bottled water globally. In many cities in developing countries where there is not a safe source of tap water, bottled water becomes a trusted choice.

01 Why Tap Water is Better Than Bottled Water? In the US, tap water is controlled by the government and often examined for dangerous polluted substances. Each American drinks 79 liters of bottled water per year on average, according to the Columbia Water Center at Columbia University’s Earth Institute in New York. The bottled water industry is so successful that it has outpaced(超过) milk, coffee, and juice in the number of gallons of drinks sold — putting it behind only beer and soda. Though the sale and consumption of bottled water is still on the rise, certain policymakers have taken steps to reduce it and encourage people to drink tap water. In September 2009, the Australian town of Bundanoon became the first town in the world to completely ban bottled water from its stores’ shelves, building water fountains around the town instead. Among US cities that have taken action are San Francisco and Seattle, which no longer buy water for city use, and Chicago, which added a five-cent tax on each bottle. Several restaurants in those cities have also given up bottled water for tap water. Other cities are also considering taking action.
