There‘s a famous book called The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire. (c) Do you live in a high-rise block of flats?I know that a lot of people in cities in China do live in large apartment blocks which have many floors, maybe 15 or 20 or more, but I live in a flat in a much smaller house of just three floors.(d) What are the different factors which give rise to new fashions?Fashion designers produce innovations and new styles. There are changes in the economic situation so that people may spend more or less on clothes; also new materials and colours become available,and people get different ideas about what to wear when they travel to other places or watch filmsand TV.6 Translate the paragraph into Chinese.Sometimes the hemline indicator, as it‘s called, can even precede and predict a change in the mood of the stock market long before it actually happens. In September 2007, at the New York fashion shows, which were displaying their styles for spring 2008, the trend was for much longer dresses and skirts, many to mid-calf or even down to the ankles. Some people felt this showed that the hemline indicator was no longer reliable, and that designers no longer dictated what people would wear. During the London and New York fashion shows in September 2008, hemlines continued to drop. But sure enough, in the fall of 2008, the stock market indexes fell dramatically when the banking crisis hit the US, Europe and then the rest of the world. Hemlines were no longer following the stock market – they were showing the way and indicating future economic trends.有时候，所谓的裙摆指标甚至能事先早早就预告股市的变化。

Unit 1 依我看1 依我看，现实生活并没有人们想象的那么好。
我们上了12年的中、小学，又上了3年的大学，这期间老师们一直在没完没了地谈论在备受呵护的学生生活之外的那个广阔天地里的各种机会，可我遇到的又是什么呢？2 无论我怎么想保持心情愉快，可麻烦事总是接踵而来：有时是和人发生矛盾（尤其是跟男孩子，天哪！他们什么时候才能长大？），但通常是为钱发愁。
这个地方什么东西都很贵！人人都想从我身上赚点钱：税务局要收个人所得税，银行经理要我偿清学生贷款，房东催我交房租、燃气费、水费、电费，手机账单也不断地寄来。
所有这些还没算上吃饭的钱。
更可气的是，不知从哪里冒出一个自作聪明的家伙给我打电话，问我要不要买养老金。
照这样下去，我甚至都支撑不到年底，更别提活到60岁领养老金了。
3 我那时还不想出去工作。
我的意思是，我并不是个逃避现实社会的人，但我知道自己未来某一天可能不得不逃避现实。
许多人认为“生活不是野餐”，“没有免费的午餐”。
但既然我拿到了优等生文凭，我想我应该继续攻读硕士学位。
实际上，我已经看中了伦敦政治经济学院的课程。
这是一所顶尖的学校，能给我的履历表增添一段光彩的经历。
但当我跟妈妈谈起这件事时，她说她没法继续供我上学了。
我大概能理解她的心情，但并不仅仅是因为我学的是经济学。
15年来，为了能让我上学，她含辛茹苦。
这些年来，父亲大部分时间都不在家。
就算在家，他也没钱。
他把钱都拿去赌狗、喝酒了。
所以我听了妈妈的话，向命运低下了头。
4 依我看，不管人们说什么，幸运的是世上还有很多好心人。
迈克就是其中的一个。
大学毕业时，我想如果我回家，妈妈就会觉得她有责任照顾我。
所以，我就收拾行李去伦敦找工作。
我想找金融和投资方面的职位，因为你知道这样我就可以用上我的专业知识。
可是那时候已经没有这样的工作了，但我又不愿意做复印文件、端茶倒水之类的乏味的办公室工作。
5 在伦敦，无论走到什么地方，你都能找到一个好酒吧。
有一天，我意识到这个城市没有人会雇我，于是我走进位于利德贺街的索尔兹伯里酒吧去喝酒，顺便吃点东西。

Unit 7Active reading (1)美好的回忆虽然这个房子已经换了许多户人家了，但直到现在我还记得那些筑墙、盖屋顶的工人。
当时马路对过那座庄园大宅的主人需要建一个小屋给他的园丁住。
他在这片连绵不断的巨大的丘陵果园中找到了一片空地，他派工人到本地的采石场运来金黄色的石头，工人花了三个月时间在园子里建起了这两座农家小屋。
我只从侧面看到过我的旁边的那座房子，我从来没有见过它的正面。
但是我知道，尽管我们在结构和外观上是一摸一样的，我们的朝向正好相反，这真是不可思议。
我的前门朝东，隔壁房子的前门是朝西的。
我的卧室在房子的后部，在隔壁那所房子里，这个位置正好是厨房的上面。
我的厨房在房子的前部，在隔壁的那个房子里，这个位置是在卧室的下方。
我觉得我比它幸运，因为每天早上，我这边的石头会在阳光的照耀下熠熠发光。
园丁精心地照料庄园周围的果园和花园，所以到了秋天，树上总是果实累累，结满了苹果和梨。
当白天越来越短的时候，这四周的土地上是一片忙碌的景象，帮工们采摘水果，把摘下的水果送到庄园去或是沿着那条路运到镇上的市场去卖。
除了秋天，其他时候这里非常安静。
园丁的生活好像很孤独，后来有一天，他带了一个年轻女子回家。
我这个房子里顿时充满了欢声笑语和饭菜的香味。
园丁外出干活的时候，他的妻子会照看我周围的花园，种玫瑰、水仙和郁金香，还有夏季植物和菊花。
从早春的鲜花到深秋的深深的金黄色叶子，花园里真是五彩缤纷。
能照看这样一对夫妇，我感觉很幸福。
没过多久，又有孩子要照看了。
头一个孩子是女孩，她常常高兴得咯咯笑，睡得也很沉。
后来又添了一个男孩，他哭起来嗓门很大，让我们大家都不得安宁。
但是他们都很快乐，也很听话。
他们会静静地在屋里或花园里一起玩耍。
渐渐地，他们长大了，也长高了。
最让我感到愉快的一个记忆是：在一个温暖的夏日，我看到男孩高高地坐在苹果树的枝干上，读着他最喜爱的那本书。
我的窗户是我的眼睛，它们对着绿树和田野。
窗外的风景被低矮的丘陵围绕着，仿佛一切都栖息在它温暖的怀抱里。

新标准大学英语综合教程4教师用书unit5课文翻译Unit5Translation of the passagesActive reading (1)英国人说闲话规则的性别差异与普遍的看法相反，研究人员发现：男人和女人一样爱说闲话。
英国的一项研究发现：两个性别的人对诸如人际关系这类的社会话题所花的时间一样多，大约是65%；另一项研究则表明：两性差异很小，男人谈话时有55% 的时间在说闲话，女人说闲话的时间是67%。
由于体育和休闲大约占10% 的说话时间，所以很可能是谈论足球的时间导致了这种性别的差异。
男人谈论政治、职业、艺术及文化事务等‚重要‛或‚高雅‛话题的可能性并不比女人高，除非女人在场（这就形成了强烈的对比）。
女人不在场的时候，男人也说闲话，他们谈论职业和政治等社会问题的时间不会超过5%。
男女都在场时，为了引起女人的注意，男人谈论‚高雅‛话题的时间会大大增加，达到15% 至20%。
事实上，最近的研究表明，男性和女性说闲话在内容上只存在一个重要的差别：男人会花更多的时间谈论自己。
在谈论社会关系的总时间中，男人用了三分之二的时间来谈论自己的关系，而女人谈论自己的时间则只占三分之一。
即便如此，那个关于男人讨论‚解决世界上问题‛而女人只是躲在厨房里闲言碎语的神话仍然大行其道，尤其是在男人堆里。
在我所调查的人群及面谈中，大多数英国男性刚开始时都声称他们不说闲话，而大多数女性都坦承自己说闲话。
在接下来的提问中，我发现两者的差别只在于语义层面而非实践层面：女性通常称为‚说闲话‛的活动在男性那里被定义为‚信息交流‛。
显然，在英国男性眼里说闲话是一件可耻的事情，这条不成文的规则已经深入人心，因此就算一个人真的在说闲话，他也会把它说成是另一回事。
更重要的是，它必须听起来像是在说别的事。
在研究中我发现男女说闲话的主要区别在于女人说闲话听起来更像闲言碎语。
这涉及到三个主要因素——音调规则、细节规则和反馈规则。
语调规则我面谈过的英国女人都认为只有某种特别的语调适合于说闲话。

新编⼤学英语4课⽂翻译after--classreadingAfter—class reading 课⽂翻译(Book 4)Unit 1致命诱惑1英国离奇谋杀案⼩说的⼥皇，毫⽆疑问是阿加莎·克⾥斯蒂。
虽然作者本⼈在20多年前就去世了，但她创作的78部侦探⼩说还是⾮常畅销。
它们已经被译成了100多种语⾔，销量超过了20亿册。
2阿加莎的⼩说⽆论是在英国还是在其他国家，都如此受⼈喜爱并不难理解。
她的每本书都构思精巧。
她创造的⼈物⼀眼就能辨认出，情节的发展⾮常规范、准确、流畅。
但最重要的是，她所有的故事都给读者⼀个谜团。
3克⾥斯蒂的作品⼏乎都是以谋杀开场，迫使读者提出这样⼀个问题：“是谁⼲的?”，⽽最后总是⽔落⽯出。
读者的乐趣就在于根据故事⾥隐含的线索顺藤摸⽠，试图在作者揭开谜底之前找到正确答案。
这种模式吸引了⼈类最强烈的本能——好奇⼼——⽽⼈们对这种模式欢迎的程度没有任何减弱的迹象。
4很多离奇的案⼦都是由克⾥斯蒂笔下某个常常出场的侦探破解，例如那个⾮常⾃信的⽐利时⼈埃居尔·波洛探长，或者是那个显然没有恶意的⼩⽼太太马普尔⼩姐。
她同时也为她的故事创造了⼀个特有的背景，这⼀背景，如同她创作的⼀些⼈物⼀样为⼈们所熟知。
那是处于两次世界⼤战之间的英国，那⼉的⼩村庄⾥社区关系紧密，⽣活安静，或者是城⾥的阔佬们在乡下的豪宅⾥度周末。
5这个世界有着严格的社会等级制度。
乡下宅⼦的主⼈，很可能是贵族成员，占据着社会的顶层，然后是那些职业阶层：医⽣、律师和商⼈。
处于底层的则是⼀般民众，在书中通常作为仆从、厨师和园丁出场。
当谋杀案发⽣时，需要调查的嫌疑⼈不在少数。
6阿加莎-克⾥斯蒂的世界不是⼀个完全真实的世界，这就是她的作品还没有过时的原因之⼀。
这是⼀个安定、循规蹈矩的世界，然后谋杀案打乱了⼈们的正常⽣活。
必须侦破案件，抓住杀⼈犯，恢复宁静的⽣活。
7在阿加莎·克⾥斯蒂⼀⽣的⼤部分时问⾥，英国的杀⼈犯都被处以死刑。

He sent workman to bring the golden stone from the local quarry and they spent three months building two cottages in the park.

Unit 1 Nine to FiveActive Reading 1 Looking for a job after university?First, Get off the Sofa大学毕业找工作的第一要义：别躺在沙发上做梦今年夏天，超过65 万的大学生毕业离校，其中有许多人根本不知道怎么找工作。
在当今金融危机的背景下，做父母的该如何激励他们？1 七月，你看着21 岁英俊的儿子穿上学士袍，戴上四方帽，骄傲地握着优等学士学位证书，拍毕业照。
这时，记忆中每年支付几千英镑，好让儿子吃好、能参加奇特聚会的印象开始消退。
总算熬到头了。
2 等到暑假快要结束，全国各地的学生正在为新学期做准备的时候，你发现大学毕业的儿子还歪躺在沙发上看电视。
他只是偶尔走开去发短信，浏览社交网站Facebook，去酒吧喝酒。
这位前“千禧一代”的后裔一夜之间变成了哼哼一代的成员。
他能找到工作吗？3 这就是成千上万家庭所面临的景象：今年夏天，超过65 万大学生毕业，在当今金融危机的背景下他们中的大多数人不知道自己下一步该做什么。
父母只会唠叨，而儿女们则毫无缘由地变成了叛逆者，他们知道自己该找份工作，但却不知道如何去找。
4 来自米德尔塞克斯郡的杰克·古德温今年夏天从诺丁汉大学政治学系毕业，获得二级一等荣誉学士学位。
他走进大学就业服务中心，又径直走了出来，因为他看见很多人在那里排长队。
跟他一起住的另外5 个男孩也都跟他一样，进去又出来了。
找工作的压力不大，虽然他所认识的大多数女生都有更清晰的计划。
5 他说：“我申请政治学研究工作，但被拒了。
他们给的年薪是1 万8 千镑，交完房租后所剩无几，也就够买一罐煮豆子，可他们还要有研究经历或硕士学位的人。
然后我又申请了公务员速升计划，并通过了笔试。
但在面试时，他们说我‘太冷漠’了，谈吐‘太像专家治国国论者’。
我觉得自己不可能那样，但我显然就是那样的。

Book 4 unit 1P6Hello, I’m Lisa Jackson, Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency.At the fi rst Earth Day 39 years ago, 20 million Americans stood up to protect human health and the environment.It was a time when many American cities were blanketed with dangerous pollution and smog ... A time when in many communities, local waterways were too polluted to swim in, to fi sh from, or to drink ...That first Earth Day grew into a movement that reached millions more, and built a better future for all of us.We’ve helped clear harmful toxins from our air, our water, and land.And what started with those 20 million Americans almost four decades ago will engage more than abillion people this Earth Day, April 22nd.People all around the world will join together to say that it is our job to protect and preserve our planet and the people that live on it.We’ve seen how far we can come if individuals take the initiative and get involved. But we still have a long way to go ... to protect our most vulnerable communities, especially the children that live in them ...to remove pollution and toxic chemicals from our air, water, and land... and to build a clean energy economy that creates new jobs, clears the air, and frees us from our dependence on foreign oil.That way, people 39 years from now will remember that this generation helped to build a better future for all of us.We won’t get there without your help. Visit /earthday to fi nd out about events and volunteer opportunities in your community.Celebrate Earth Day this year by making April Earth Month. Then think about stretching that out into an Earth Year.I look forward to joining you. Thank you very much.P10Following the Copenhagen Conference, China set a target of cutting the nation’s carbon intensity by 45 percent by 2020 compared with the level of 2005. Energy conservation and carbon reduction has become a challenge for the government and its people. Starting today, CCTV begins a special series called “My Low-carbon Life”. We profile the small activities that could create big change in society.In our first episode, our reporter Han Bin finds out that low-carbon lifestyle has become a trend among certain groups of people.Checking expiration dates. Lin Hui always selects products with longer shelf life when he shops. He says this is to reduce waste and ultimately reduce greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide. He believes consumer attitudes can change methods of production, and encourage people to live a low-carbon lifestyle.“Paper cups are made from cutting forests. We should try not to use them, or select the smaller ones when we do. Because trees can absorb carbon dioxide and reduce greenhouse gas.” Back in his offi ce, Lin Hui works for an environmental website he and his friendsset up two years ago. It provides all kinds of information about carbon offset, including environment policies, tips on how to save energy and so on.Lin Hui says promoting a low-carbon lifestyle is (a) personal mission that will never end.“When people talk about low-carbon life, they often think it’s the matter of entrepreneurs, but they forget they themselves are the real engines of production. We should promote low-carbon consumption.”Professor Li Lin is also a champion of the low-carbon lifestyle. Taking public transportation to work is part of her daily routine. Li Lin works for the WWF, one of the world’s leading conservation organizations. She showed us the promotional activities for encouraging a low-carbon lifestyle over the past years.Her office uses energy saving lights, which are turned off when not needed. This has greatly reduced electricity consumption. Li Lin says small actions like this can mean a lot in terms of carbon reduction. Another way is to double print the paper.“If you save one ton of paper, you’ll save one ton of energy used for producing paper and pulp, that will translate (into) about two and a half tons of CO2 reduced.”This booklet produced by WWF offers guidance for (a) low-carbon lifestyle. There are 30 ways to save energy, and the booklet covers everything from why to save, what to eat, how to travel, and how to calculate savings.“All the efforts translated into saved nature, saved habitat for human as species, together with other species, and we would avoid all the negative impacts of global warming.” Although there has been much talk about climate change in China, not everyone understands the low-carbon lifestyle.“Low carbon?”“I really don’t know.”Policy makers should also play a role.For example, central heating is supplied by thermal power stations, the majority of offi ces use nonadjustable heating system, which has lessened users’ willingness to save energy. As global warming becomes a mounting challenge, low-carbon development is considered to be the best way forward in the long term. Despite increasing efforts by the government to promote the low-carbon lifestyles, it might continue to be just a trend within certain groups, and not for all Chinese.Han Bin, CCTV, Beijing.课文翻译绿化，永无止境【1】环保主义思想已经深深的扎根于校园。

Unit 11. If you ask me, real life is not all it’s cracked up to be. Twelve years at school and three years at university, teachers banging on about opportunities in the big wide world beyond our sheltered life as students, and what do I find?Try as I might to stay cheerful, all I ever get is hassle, sometimes with people (especially boys, god, when will they grow up?), but mostly with money. It’s just so expensive out here! Everyone wants a slice off you. The Inland Revenue wants to deduct income tax, the bank manager wants repayments on my student loan,the landlord wants the rent, gas, water, electricity and my mobile bills keep coming in, and all that’s before I’ve had anything to eat. And then some bright spark calls me out of the blue, asking if I’m interested in buying a pension. And this rate, I won’t even last till the end of the year, let alone till I’m 60.依我看，现实生活并没有人们想象的那么美好。

来自米德尔塞克斯郡的杰克·古德温今年夏天从诺丁汉大学政治学系毕业，获得二级一等荣誉学士学位。
他走进大学就业服务中心，但又径直走了出来，因为他看见很多人在那里排长队。
跟他一起住的另外 5 个男孩子也都跟他一样，进去又出来了。
找工作的压力不大，虽然他所认识的大多数女生都有更明确的计划。
他说：“我申请政治学研究工作，但被拒绝了。
他们给的年薪是 1 万 8 千镑，交完房租后所剩无几，也就够买一罐豆子，可他们还要有研究经历或硕士学位的人。
然后我又申请参加快速晋升人才培养计划，并通过了笔试。
但在面试时，他们说我‘太冷漠’了，谈吐‘太像专家政治论者’。
我觉得自己不可能那样，但我显然就是那样的。
” 打那以后，他整个夏天都在“隐身” 。
他能够轻松地复述出电视剧《交通警察》中的若干片段。
他白天看电视的时间太长，已经到了影响健康的地步。
跟朋友谈起自己漫无目标的日子时，他才发现他们的处境和自己一样。
其中一位朋友在父母的逼迫下去超市上货，其余的则都是朝九晚五地“无所事事” ，晚上则去酒吧喝酒打发时间。
要么，干脆就在酒吧工作？这样还可以挣些酒钱。
“我不想在酒吧工作。
---------------------------------------------------------------最新资料推荐------------------------------------------------------ 我上的是综合学校，我拼命读书才考上了一所好大学。
到了大学，我又埋头苦读，才取得一个好学位。
可现在我却跟那些没上过大学的做无聊的酒吧侍应的朋友处在同一个水平线上。
我觉得自己好像兜了一圈，又回到了原来的起点。
”他的母亲杰奎琳·古德温替他辩护。
她坚持认为她的儿子已经尽力了。
因为她自己中学毕业后一直都在工作，所以她和她的丈夫发现，建议儿子如何继续找工作是件很棘手的事情。
她说，“我一直都不得不工作。
而现在的年青人很难做到这一点，因为如果你有了学位，学位就会为你提供新的机会，至少你自己会这么想。
” 虽然现在她对儿子的态度还比较温和，但是她心里很清楚，去南美度三星期的假之后，他的休假就该结束了。
他可能还得付房租，并分担家庭开支。
9 她说，“在某个时候孩子们总要长大成人。
我们已经帮他交了大学的学费，所以他也该给我们一点点回报了。
南美度假就是一个分水岭，他回来以后如果找不到工作，那就圣诞节打零工好了。
” 心理治疗师盖尔·林登费尔德是《情感康复策略》的作者。
3/ 7
她说古德温夫妇的做法是很恰当的。
从大学到工作的转换对父母和孩子来说都很艰难，关键是父母要在支持理解孩子和不溺爱孩子之间找到一个平衡点。
“父母的主要任务就是支持孩子，如果他们教导孩子该如何做，那么就会引起矛盾，如果
---------------------------------------------------------------最新资料推荐------------------------------------------------------ 有熟人，一定要找他们想办法。
”她说。
“但很多父母心太软了。
必须限制孩子的零花钱，要求他们交房租，或分担日常生活或养宠物的开销。
父母要维持正常的生活，不要让孩子随便用你们的银行账户或者榨干你们的情感能量。
” 为孩子支付职业咨询费、面试交通费及书费是好事，但不能催得太紧。
林登费尔德建议：虽说父母不能太宽容，但是如果孩子找工作遇到了挫折，父母应该体谅他们，宽容他们几天甚至几周——这取决于他们受打击的程度。
等他们缓过来之后，父母就该坚决要求孩子继续求职。
男孩更容易窝在家里。
林登费尔德相信男人比母亲和姐妹更容易帮助儿子、侄子或朋友的儿子。
她说，由于男人和女人处理挫折的方式不同，所以男孩需要跟男人谈话才能度过难关。
林登费尔德强烈支持去酒吧打工：那是克服毕业冷漠症的一剂良方。
这工作好不好要取决于你如何看待它。
5/ 7
就是在酒吧打工的时候，林登费尔德找到了她的第一份当航拍助手的工作。
她说在酒吧工作是拓展人际关系的绝好机会，肯定比赖在家里看电视更容易找到工作。
她说：“在超市上货也一样。
如果干得好，你就会被人发现的。
如果你聪明、活泼，礼貌待客，你很快就会升职。
所以，把它看作是机会。
那些最终成功的人士很多都有在超市上货的经历。
” 你的儿女可能不会干好莱坞影星们干过的活，比如像乌比·戈德堡那样去停尸房给死人化妆，或者像布鲁斯·威利斯那样在核电站当警卫，但即便是布拉德·皮特也曾经不得不穿上宽大的小鸡模样的服装站在快餐连锁店 El Pollo Loco 的门口招揽生意。
他们中没有一个人因为这些经历而变得更加穷困。
