U校园新视野大学英语4读写教程 答案(Unit 1 Life and logic)

U校园新视野大学英语4 读写教程答案Unit 1 Life and logicSection A1-2 Text A: Love and logic: The story of a fallacy Pre-reading activitiesPre-reading activities-11) B2) A3) A4) B5) B6) A7) C8) CPre-reading activities-21) Reasoning skills deal with the process of getting from a problem to a solution or a conclusion. By improving your reasoning skills, you can improve your success in doing things. Specifically, strong reasoning skills can help you to:improve the quality and validity of your own arguments; improve your ability to assess the quality and validity of others' arguments;make more logical decisions;solve problems more efficiently and effectively.To give a specific example, every day you have to make various decisions, and yet even some simple decisions like deciding what to wear when you're getting dressed in the morning require some reasoning skills. When you decide what to wear, you take many factors into consideration the weather forecast, the current temperature, your plans for the day (where you are going, what you will do, and whom you will meet), your comfort level, and so on. In real life, you need to face decisions that are much more difficult than choosingwhat to wear. So, it is really important to have strong reasoning skills.2) The factors below are usually important for a logical conclusion:critical thinking skills;facts;evidence;sound reasoning process, etc.Reading comprehensionReading comprehension-11) The deal between them is that the narrator gives Rob his leather jacket, and Rob, in exchange, gives the narrator his girlfriend. They make the deal because they want to get something from each other: Rob is crazy about fashion, and he wants to own the narrator's fashionable leather jacket; the narrator longs to have a beautiful girlfriend, and Rob's girlfriend is beautiful.2) He thinks a beautiful and well-spoken girlfriend will assist him to land a job and achieve success in an elite law company.3) The narrator feels this way because he can't stop thinking that his purpose of dating Polly is not for romance but for improving her intelligence, and he can't let Polly know his plan.4) The narrator decides to teach Polly logic because he believes logic is essential to clear thinking. By teaching Polly logic, he can make her intelligent. 5) When the narrator teaches her logic, Polly responds either shortly with "Cool", "Great", "I like that idea", or simply with nodding or blinking without saying anything. These responses give us an impression that Polly is a nice but rather simple-minded girl.6) Yes. He is only too successful in teaching Polly logic because in the end when he asks Polly to be his girlfriend, Polly refuses his request by applying all the logical fallacies he has taught her.7) Because he wants to make one more attempt to win Polly as his girlfriend by asking her to forget what he has taught her.8) The end of the story is ironic because Polly turns out to be smarter than the narrator. First, she is able to refute all his arguments as logical fallacies. Then, she discloses that she and Rob have played a trick on him. The narrator has been too smart for his own good. Reading comprehension-21) In my opinion, all the three characters are complex. The following are my descriptions about them. Smart: He is an excellent law student and knows a lot about logic.Sophisticated: He believes a beautiful and intelligent girlfriend will benefit him in his future career. Arrogant and self-conceited: He thinks highly of himself but badly of his roommate.Over-confident: He thinks the girl will surely choose him rather than Rob.Stupid and simple-minded: He knows nothing about what can happen in real life.Fashionable and cool: He loves fashion and cares a lot about his appearance.Dishonest: He plays a trick on the narrator to get his leather jacket.Clever: He is able to get what he wants without losing anything.Beautiful and nice: She is pretty and easy to be with. Shallow: She chooses Rob simply because he is fashionable.Smart: She learns quickly and is full of wit when refusing to be the narrator's girlfriend.2) The story itself includes the fallacy "Dicto Simpliciter". The narrator assumes that all girls would be happy to date a boy whose future is somewhat guaranteed. Therefore, Polly, a beautiful and wealthy young girl, would certainly fall in love with him "an ingenious student" and "a man with an assured future",rather than Rob "a muscular idiot". However, to the narrator's surprise and disappointment, Polly chooses Rob in the end because Rob is fashionable and cool.3) Love is blind. It is ridiculous to use logic to deal with love.Smart people sometimes can make wrong judgments. Smart people are sometimes too arrogant and confident. Smart people may fall victims to their own smartness.4) Yes. Because not only would teaching logic in school help minimize the overwhelming number of fallacious assertions, but also would serve as an excellent precursor to higher mathematics and help make other courses such as geometry and calculus less of a mystery to most students.No. Because logic can be learned through other subjects such as math, philosophy, reading, etc. It's not necessary to offer a special course about it.5) Yes, certainly. Actually, logical fallacies are very common in our everyday life. I myself commit logicalfallacies very often, too. For example, when I first met my roommate in college, I felt very surprised when he told me he didn't like noodles. I asked, "People in the north of China like eating noodles. You are from the north, why don't you like noodles?" Here I committed the logical fallacy "Dicto Simpliciter". I falsely asserted that all people in the north should like noodles, and there should be no exception to this premise.1-3 Text A: Language focusWords in use1. crumbled2. discern3. surpass4. shrewd5. conversion6. distort7. radiant8. ingenious9. stumped10. propositionWord building: Practice Word building: Practice-11) delicacy2) bankruptcy3) accountancy4) secrecy5) vacancy6) urgency7) atmospheric8) magnet9) metallic10) gloom11) guilt12) masteryWord building: Practice-21. bankruptcies2. atmospheric3. delicacies4. urgency5. accountancy6. gloom7. magnet8. metallic9. mastery10. vacancy11. guilt12. secrecyBanked cloze1) mentioned2) determine3) gained4) responsible5) heavily6) artistic7) opposite8) analytical9) distorted10) stumped Expressions in use1) were dripping with2) in exchange for3) flared up4) make an analogy between5) set a date for6) make7) out of8) made a pact9) had appealed to1-4 Structure analysis & writingStructured writing: Practice参考:I had my most embarrassing experience when I was in the second year of college. During that period of time, I often liked to chat with my friends by passing notes in class. My bitter story happened one Tuesday morning, when our English teacher was busy writing on the blackboard, trying to teach us, in her monotonous voice, the difference between "tolerable" and "tolerant".The teacher was hard-working, but I really wanted to share my good mood with my best friend, Tony. Therefore,I picked up my pen and wrote on a slip of paper, "Hey, I want to tell you something that will make you really envious of me," and then I passed the slip to him. He quickly opened it and read it. Being too curious, he wasted no time writing on the note some words and passed it back. "What is it? Tell me immediately!" he asked. "Sally just gave me her cell phone number." I responded.I could not wait to see his jealous face.However, when he got my note, an unexpected thing happened. The note was grabbed by another hand. To my shock, the teacher was standing in front of Tony. She read the note in her hand loudly and looked sternly around the whole class. "Who passed the note to Tony? Who was so lucky to get Sally's phone number?" She asked. All the class started to whisper, and I vaguely heard them talking about who started the passing of the note. My face turned red, and my heart beat quickly. Of course, those who sat around me knew I was the culprit. They looked at me, giggling quietly. Meanwhile, Sally blushed a deep crimson and looked very angry. She glared at me as if to say, "I am going to kill you."I did not stand up to admit I was the offender, but I felt so embarrassed that I really wished that there had been a place for me to hide myself. After the incident, I did not dare to pass notes in class anymore.1-5 TranslationTranslationTranslation-1参考:亚里士多德是古希腊的哲学家和科学家。

新视野大学英语读写教程第四册课文翻译(含Section A与Section B,目前最完整的翻译)第四册unit1 sectionA艺术家追求成名,如同狗自逐其尾,一旦追到手,除了继续追逐不知还能做些什么。

成功之残酷正在于它常常让那些追逐成功者自寻毁灭。

对一名正努力追求成功并刚刚崭露头角的艺术家,其亲朋常常会建议“正经的饭碗不能丢!”他们的担心不无道理。

追求出人头地,最乐观地说也困难重重,许多人到最后即使不是穷困潦倒,也是几近精神崩溃。

尽管如此,希望赢得追星族追捧和同行赞扬之类的不太纯洁的动机却在激励着他们向前。

享受成功的无上光荣,这种诱惑不是能轻易抵挡的。

成名者之所以成名,大多是因为发挥了自己在歌唱、舞蹈、绘画或写作等方面的特长,并能形成自己的风格。

为了能迅速走红,代理人会极力吹捧他们这种风格。

他们青云直上的过程让人看不清楚。

他们究竟是怎么成功的,大多数人也都说不上来。

尽管如此,艺术家仍然不能闲下来。

若表演者、画家或作家感到无聊,他们的作品就难以继续保持以前的吸引力,也就难以保持公众的注意力。

公众的热情消磨以后,就会去追捧下一个走红的人。

有些艺术家为了不落伍,会对他们的写作、跳舞或唱歌的风格稍加变动,但这将冒极大的失宠的危险。

公众对于他们藉以成名的艺术风格以外的任何形式都将不屑一顾。

知名作家的文风一眼就能看出来,如田纳西?威廉斯的戏剧、欧内斯特?海明威的情节安排、罗伯特?弗罗斯特或T.S.艾略特的诗歌等。

同样,像莫奈、雷诺阿、达利这样的画家,希区柯克、费里尼、斯皮尔伯格、陈凯歌或张艺谋这样的电影制作人也是如此。

他们鲜明独特的艺术风格标志着与别人不同的艺术形式上的重大变革,这让他们名利双收,但也让他们付出了代价,那就是失去了用其他风格或形式表现自我的自由。

名气这盏聚光灯可比热带丛林还要炙热。

骗局很快会被揭穿,过多的关注带来的压力会让大多数人难以承受。

它让你失去自我。

你必须是公众认可的那个你,而不是真实的你或是可能的你。
