The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. By a stroke of luck/Lucky enough, thanks to the severely cold weather which made the marshland freeze over, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Unit Two Smart CarsV ocabulary1) expansion 2) automated 3) vapor 4) take control of 5) hazards6) satellite7) vibrated 8) magnetic 9) bunched 10) in the air 11)got/was stuck in12) approximatelyII.

On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities. However, today the applicationof computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminatemost of traffic accidents. For example, electronic sensors mountedin your carcan detectalcohol vapor in the airand refuse to start upthe engine. They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellitesand greatly reduce your chances of getting stuckintraffic jams.Unit 31) rude 2) physically 3) structure 4) made a difference 5) blurted (out) 6) chuckling 7) measurable 8) prospective 9) preparations 10) sparkled 11) took a crack at 12) partnerII.

It is extremely important for a jobapplicantto do hishomework while seeking employment. From my standpoint, whether or not one has done his homeworkclearly makes a difference in his chance of success.I have a friend who is earning somewherein the neighborhood of 100,000 dollars a years in a large computersoftware company. He told me that from his own experience the decision makers who interview prospective employees like people who are well prepared. Those who make no endeavorto learn as much about his prospective employer as possible don’t have much of a chanceof success.Unit 5V ocabularyI1) In a way 2) in accordance 3) vacancy 4) in good condition 5) transparent 6)rub 7) spicy 8) hitherto9) with (a) bad grace 10) instinct 11) pawned 12) currentII.

For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton. In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel. He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death. Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit6V ocabulary 11) appliances 2) comparative 3) multiply 4) distribution5) prosperity 6) decorate 7) famine 8) large quantities of/ a large quantity of9) streamline 10) fax 11) pointed the way to 12) bewilderedTranslation1) They are exploring the new frontiers of medical science in an attempt to find remedies for incurablediseases/ cures for diseases that are beyond remedy so far.2) Her unique teaching methods apart, Ms Wilson, my math teacher, never tried to cram knowledge into my head.3) The regular weather forecast by the Central TV Station keeps us up with the changes of weather wherever wego on a trip.4) The appalling explosion started a big fire and caused the partial collapse of the building.5) In the modern world, there are more ways than ever to waste away time, and all kinds of distractions are eating into our precious time.Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more. Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well/ good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families. It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones. Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.。

No one can live outside nature. However, the previous dynamic balance between man and nature has shown signs of breaking down.

A harmonious relationship between man and the environment is essential for human survival on the earth.However, man and the environment have never been on such bad terms as they are now. As society develops, m an’s transformation of nature has severely polluted his living environment. Deforestation leads to changes in rainfall patterns, causing devastating floods, droughts and sandstorms. The discharge of chemical pollutants endangers our health and the lives of other beings. And mass production has resulted in the shortage of irreplaceable natural resources such as coal and oil. If we take no immediate and effective steps to protectour environment, human beings may be the next species to become extinct.We should do our best to protect our environment by planting more trees, taking care of wildlife, reducing industrial wastes, using renewable energy, and imposing heavy fines on environmentally-unfriendly activities,so as to preserve the environment for future generations.(167 words)...。

With the development of science and technology, people’s standard of living is getting higher and higher. People’s life expectancy has soared, too.However, oddly enough, many people do not feel happier than they used to be. It can be seen that there is no close correlation between people’s income and their happiness. Happiness cannot, after all, be bought with money.Although the majority of people are not very satisfied with their lives, they are happy to be alive, and the more time they get on earth, the better off they feel they’ll be. What is important is that material wealth is far from enough. People need spiritual happiness, too.Theme-related WritingSample Essay:The Impact of the Mobile Phone on People’s livesAmong the many technological inventions, the mobile phone impresses me most.The mobile phone brings considerable convenience to our lives. It not only enables us to keep in touch with each other almost anytime and anywhere but also helps us solve problems or do business efficiently. In emergencies, a mobile phone can even be a life-saver. Besides, its multi-functions add ease and color to our lives. With a mobile phone, we can receive mail, read news, listen to music, play games, and take pictures.Yet, the mobile phone has its disadvantages, too. Most of us have experienced the nuisance of unwanted or wrong calls. We are inconvenienced by calls on occasions when we least expect one. Besides, the technology infrastructure to support mobile communication hasconsumed valuable natural resources and caused significant environmental problems. It is reported that electromagnetic radiation waves from the phone may result in health problems.Despite its negative side, the advantages of the mobile phone outweigh its disadvantages. I believe that with advances in scienceand technology, improved and safer models of mobile phones will surely serve us still better.(184 words)key to unit 3 book 4WORDS IN ACTIONWorking With Words and Expressions1. 1) quest 2) remained 3) consume 4) likewise5) vessel 6) qualify7) stiff 8) collapsed9) predict 10) inevitably 11) absorbed 12) sheer13) refining 14) paralyzed 15) exchange2. 1) In a way 2) act on3) to such an extent that4) opens up 5) close off 6)look intoIncreasing Your Word Power1.Clipped wordsOriginal formsClipped wordsOriginal formsfaxfacsimilefridgerefrigeratorautoautomobilememomemorandumburgerhamburgerPoli-sciPolitical science demodemonstrationsubSubstitute; submarine fluInfluenzazooZoological garden2.Nouns / Adjectives SuffixesUncountable Nouns Chinese Meaningsking-dom / -hoodKingdom王国;领域fatherfatherhood父亲的身份(或资格)adultadulthood成年brother brotherhood手足之情,同胞之爱freefreedom自由;自主dukedukedom公爵的爵位likelylikeliness可能性neighbor neighborhood街坊,四邻;住宅区wisewisedom智慧,才智womanwomanhood女子成年期;女子气质3. 1) positive 2) certain3) less4) unknown5) complete6) infinite7) hopeless8) modern9) individual10) contradictoryGRAMMAR REVIEW1. 1) If they hadn’t broken away from the out-of-date regulation, they wouldn’t have made great advances in their work.2) If they hadn’t taken proper care of her, she wouldn’t have recovered so rapidly.3) The conference wouldn’t have been so successful if we hadn’t made adequate preparations.4) We would have had a hard time if we hadn’t followed the right instructions.5) The flood would have caused great damage to our property if we hadn’t built so many reservoirs.6) They would have succeeded in the experiment if they had followed the right procedure.2. 1) If English hadn’t become a language of international business after World War II, most developing countries wouldn’t have required students to study it at school.2) If William hadn’t invaded England in 1066, the English language wouldn’t have had many words of French origin.3) If modern English hadn’t developed from several different languages, the grammar and spelling rules wouldn’t have been so irregular.4) If England hadn’t been conquered by the Normans in 1066, French wouldn’t have become the main language of the ruling class at that time.CLOZE1. 1) topic 2) creates 3) really 4) grasp5) sure 6) opposite 7) contradictory 8) reality9) physical 10) rigidity 11) individual 12) humility13) rainbow 14) falsehoodTRANSLATION1. 1) Most people strongly believe that the court will no doubt punish the bank robbers severely.2) The medical workers overcame one difficulty after another intheir long-term quest for a cure for the disease.3) Acting on the information they received, the police closed offthe streets and caught the bank robbers.4) We were amazed at learning that the newly-built TV factory can produce 500,000 TV sets in the first year.5) The government is looking into the causes of so many layoffsand is trying to help the laid-off workers to be re-employed.6) To expand the sales of its product, the company has taken up various measures to open up new markets and to improve its services.7) He has neglected his studies to such an extent that I am afraidit is impossible for him to catch up with the other students in a month.8) The fireworks factory was closed last month for failing to comply with the government safety regulations.9) It remains to be seen whether our football team can beat its opponents.10) Mr. Smith predicted that the recent oil discoveries, together with the use / employment of new technologies, would lead to a decline in the price of crude oil.2.We all know that knowledge is power but we are seldom aware of how difficult knowledge transfer is. According to Victoria Griffith, there are many barriers to knowledge transfer and lack of trust is one of the major ones.It seems to her that people are only to absorb knowledge readily from those they know and trust. For example, in the early 17th century, Galileo argued that the earth and other planets move around the sun, but this knowledge was rejected by the general populations at that time because the Italian over three hundred years ago trusted the Roman Catholic Church more than they trusted science. What was worse, Galileo had to spend the rest of his life under house arrest for his ideas.Victoria Griffith reminds us that knowledge transfer is still a tough problem although we are living in the “knowledge era.”THEME-RELATED WRITINGSample Essay:Knowledge transfer is a human phenomenon and plays a very important role in the process of human evolution. With the knowledge accumulated over generations, human beings can now build and transform societies with unprecedented knowledge resources.However, there are many barriers to knowledge transfer. For example, lack of trust and resistance to change undermine the transfer of knowledge. People are less likely to acquire knowledge from those whom they don’t trust or to adopt new theories and practices they are not familiar with. Cultural and language barriers also hamper thetransfer of knowledge between nations or ethnic groups. It would be almost impossible for people who speak different languages or dialects with different cultural backgrounds to communicate effecitvely, not to mention exchanging knowledge.An underdeveloped economy is another barrier to knowledge transfer. The lack of socio-economic and techno-environmental cooperation, as well as poor communications infrastructure, can greatly hinder the flow of knowledge within and between nations.To remove these barriers, people should change their attitude towards knowledge transfer and the learning of foreign languages and cultures. At the same time, efforts should be made to develop a better world economy. (190 words)The Answers to Book4---Unit4Enhance Your Language Awareness(I) Working with Words and Expressions1.

Paragraph translationSome people think that they’ve fulfilled their tasks as long as they go on duty and come off duty on time. They never think about what is meant by “work” and why they should work at all. In fact, “work”involves such qualities as wisdom, enthusiam, imagination and creativity.To do his work well, a worker must have a spirit of dedication, and be capable of bearing hardships and standing hard work. In addition, he should have initiative and creativity. Having initiative means the worker should be ready to grasp every opportunity to display his outstanding ability.In addition, a worker should make clear the nature and significance of the work he does, be responsible for whatever he is doing and plunge himself into the work with vigorous enthusiasm. If he can do so, he willl find a job no longer a burden but an indispensable part of his life. Whatever he does, he can always find values and pleasure in the work and achieve extraordinary results in otherwise ordinary work.The Answers to Book4---Unit5Enhance Your Language Awareness(I) Working with Words and Expressions1.

In most cases, fame can also help them gain wealth. But, after all, very few people can really become famous while most people, including most artists, are unlikely to become famous.It is true that some failure for some people at certain times in their lives does motivate them to strive even harder so as to achieve final success. For example, Thomas Edison, the famous American inventor, had tried hundreds of materials before he finally found the suitalbe fuse for the electric bulb. However, unfortunately, for most people failure is the end of their struggle.Therefore, in my opinion, success is one thing and fame is another. As long as you have tried your best, you’re already successful whether you are famous or not.Uint6Working with words and expressions 1. 2. clozeTranslationUint7Working with words and expressions 1. 2. clozeTranslationUint8Working with words and expressions 1. 2. clozeTranslation。

Man relies on the environment for water, food and shelter. A harmonious relationship between man and the environment is essential for human survival on the earth.However, man and the environment have never been on such bad terms as they are now. As society develops, man's transformation of nature has severely polluted his living environment. Deforestation leads to changes in rainfall patterns, causing devastating floods, droughts and sandstorms. The discharge of chemical pollutants endangers our health and the lives of other beings. And mass production has resulted in the shortage ofirreplaceable natural resources such as coal and oil. If we take no immediate and effective steps to protect our environment, human beings may be the next species to become extinct.We should do our best to protect our environment by planting more trees, taking care of wildlife, reducing industrial wastes, using renewable energy, and imposing heavy fineson environmentally-unfriendly activities, so as to preserve the environment for future generations.(167 words)。

Christmas Day-December 25-which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, the founder ofthe Christian religion, is the biggest and best-loved holiday in the United States.According to the Bible, the holy book of Christians, God decided to allow his only son, Jesus Christ, to be born to a human mother and live on the earth so that people could understand God better and learn to love God and each other more." Christmas" meaning "celebration of Christ " honors the time when Jesus was born to a young Jewish woman Mary.Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph, a carpenter, but before they came together, she was found to be with child. Because Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in his dream and said, "Do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."Although the exact date of the birth of Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago is not known, the calendar on the supposed date divides all time into B.C.(Before Christ)and A.D.(a Latin phrase, Anno Domini,“in the year of our Lord”) For the first 300 years, Jesus' birthday was celebrated on different dates. Finally, in the year 354 A.D. church leaders choseDecember 25 as his birthday.3. Open.Unit 6 LiteratureExercise 11. B2. D3. C4. D5. CExercise 21. G2. D3. F4. H5. CExercise 31. T2. T3. T4. T5. FIV.

Cao was deeplyeducated by China's troubled history and by his hometown where he spent childhood in poverty. But hardship finally turned into his spiritual and literary wealth.2. Cao tells many genuine Chinese stories, but the themes of his Chinese stories areuniversal,and at the same time all of them belong to humankind.3. Whether a book can make its way into the world, that is to say whether it is suitable fortranslation into other languages, is also a basic norm of its literary value.Unit 7 CultureExercise 11. C2.

Generally speaking, because smoking is harmful for health. According to rel ated survey,like 2011 China Tobacco Control Report, about 740 million peopl e, including 180 million chil dren and teenagers are affected by second hand smoke. More than 1 million peopl e die every year from smoking-rel ated diseases, and more than 100,000 of those cases can be traced back to second-hand smoke.2. I am afraid there’s no simil ar regulations passed or carried out in my city. Here are somereasons. Firstly, the corresponding d epart ments d o not pay enough attention tosecond-hand smoking issue as in Harbin. Secondly, there are too many smokers here in the city and most of them refuse to d o any change. Thirdly, l ocal citizens here are too shy to express their opinions against second-hand passive smoking.3. As we can see from the passage, Harbin is the first city that tries to regulate second-handsmoke for the sake of public health. It is really a good start. One the one hand,non-smokers especially chil dren and teenagers are effectively protected than ever before.Since second-hand passive breathing coul d no l onger threat their health, many serious diseases are avoid ed. That is of great significance. On the other hand, before l ong Harbincoul d be a successful mod el of tobacco control for other cities to copy. Then, there coul d be cl eaner air, healthier environment, and happier life in many cities.Unit 9 Ethics IssuesExercise 11. C2. D3.

As society develops, m an’s transformation of nature has severely polluted his living environment. Deforestation leads to changes in rainfall patterns, causing devastating floods, droughts and sandstorms. The discharge of chemical pollutants endangers our health and the lives of other beings. And mass production has resulted in the shortage of irreplaceable natural resources such as coal and oil. If we take no immediate and effective steps to protect our environment, human beings may be the next species to become extinct.We should do our best to protect our environment by planting more trees, taking care of wildlife, reducing industrial wastes, using renewable energy, and imposing heavy fines on environmentally-unfriendly activities,so as to preserve the environment for future generations.(167 words)。

2 This year will be filled with his music, but it will also be a time to re-examine the contradictions and conflicting interpretations of his brief 35-year life.今年会充满莫扎特的音乐,但今年也会重新审视莫扎特短短35年的一生带来的矛盾和冲突的看法。
3 That notion was first given scientific support in a 1993 article in Nature, which found that college students who listened to the first movement of Mozart’s Sonata in D Major for Two Pianos performed better on a spatial reasoning test that involved mentally unfolding a piece of paper.《自然》杂志1993年的一篇文章首次给这个说法提供了科学依据,该文章指出,在一项要求在大脑里想像如何展开一页纸的空间推理测试中,听了莫扎特“D大调双钢琴奏鸣曲”第一乐章的大学生取得了更好效果。
4 In the decade since, these studies have sparked an academic storm, with many of Rauscher’s peers either refining or debunking her findings.在随后的十年里,这些研究引起了学术界的轩然大波,罗切尔的许多同行对她的发现要么进行补充完善,要么进行反驳。
5 Today, she’s even revising her own initial conclusions in the light of subsequent research by others, working on a book tentatively titled Music and the Mind Beyond the Mozart Effect.目前,罗切尔甚至正在根据其他人后来做的研究修改她最初的结论,她在写一本书,书名暂定为《音乐以及莫扎特效应之外的心灵》。
III. SummaryComplete the following statements with words and expressions from the box. Use their proper forms.1. This year will celebrate the 250th anniversary of a music genius — Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who has beencast in many roles ever since his childhood.2. Yet people’s fever about Mozart is bey ond music. Over the past decade, Mozart has been placed in a very controversial role: a healer of mind and body.3. It is claimed that Mozart’s music can help treat ailments ranging from acne to Alzheimer’s disease. Such claims, however, lack substantial support.4. A 1993 article in Nature first gave scientific support to the notion— perhaps by far the most disputed— that Mozart can enhance your brain power.5. The study and its main author Frances Rauscher sparked a storm in the academic community. Nevertheless, Rauscher’s work attracted widespread media attention and made possible a pop-psychology trend known as the “Mozart effect.”6. But people don’t under stand why music can have powerful influence on the brain. Scientific studies only show that many different areas of the brain are activated when one listens to music. Some of these areas overlap with those used in spatial reasoning.7. Then why should Mo zart’s music become the focal point of the debate, rather than that of other classical composers? The answer, according to neurologist John Hughes, lies in the way Mozart repeated his melodies.新世纪大学英语系列教材(第二版)Unit 7Part IExercisesI. Reading for information 。

TranslationTranslate the following sentences into Chinese.1 There are equally empathetic, if more sober, nods when Grace Chang Lucarelli, 32, speaking in a soft Texan drawl, recalls “people making fun of me”because she was one of the few Asian Americans in her town.32岁的格雷丝·张·卢卡莱丽拖着长腔、用柔和的得克萨斯口音回忆说:由于她是镇上为数不多的亚裔美国人之一,因此“受到人们的嘲笑”,对此同伴们也是同情地、但更为严肃地点了点头。
2 And it was there that their kids, now 20 to 40 years old, grew up, straddling two worlds —the traditional domain their recently arrived parents sought to maintain at home and the fast-changing Western culture of the society outside the front door.正是在那儿(与外界隔绝的郊区)他们的孩子长大成人,如今年龄在20至40岁之间,他们生活在两种社会之间:一个是不久前移民至此的父母在家中极力维持的传统文化,另一个是大门外社会里飞速变化的充满着西方文化的社会。
3 In doing so, they have updated the old immigrant story and forged a new Asian-American identity, not wholly recognizable in any of their parents’native lands but, in its hybrid nature, vibrantly American.如此,他们更新了古老的移民故事,塑造了全新的亚裔美国人身份,这种身份在他们父母的祖国没有获得完全的认可,但就其混合性而言,洋溢着美国式的活力。
4 If you were to draw a diagram of acculturation with the mores of immigrant parents on one side and society’s on the other, the classic model might show a steady drift over time, depicting a slow-burn Americanization, taking as long as two or three generations.如果你绘制一个表示文化适应的图表,一边是父辈移民的风俗习惯,另一边是生活其中的社会的风俗习惯,标准的图表也许会显示一个稳定的趋势:需要两三代人才能慢慢实现美国化。
