arrested everyone. They were taken to a transit camp and forced to do hard labour. From there they were taken by train to a concentration camp at Auschwitz.

By 1941, the Nazis were arresting large numbers of Jewish people, and sending them to labour camps which quickly became death camps. Otto Frank, Anne’s father, decided to conceal his family, and the family of his business partner. The Franks went into hiding on 6 July 1942, just a few weeks after Anne started her diary, and were joined by the second family, the Van Pels a week later. For the next two years, eight people were confined to just six small rooms and could never go outside. There was rarely enough to eat, and the families lived in a state of poverty.

新世纪大学英语综合教程2课文翻译及课后答案完整版新世纪大学英语综合教程2Unit 1 Living in HarmonyText A “我原谅你”1并非只有婚姻关系才需要宽恕。

我们与子女、朋友、同事、邻居,甚至陌生人相处时同样需要宽恕。

事实上,没有宽恕的氧气。

任何人际关系都无从维系。

宽恕并不是脾气好的人们才拥有的特质,它是所有关系的必要条件,也是自己身心健康不可缺少的。

、2有些人可能认为自己受伤太深、次数太多,无法宽恕、可耐人寻味的是,恰恰是被伤得最深的人,才真正需要宽恕别人。

原因很简单:仇恨就像癌症。

会毁掉宿主。

如果不尽快铲除。

它就会生根发芽,是那些执意仇恨无法释怀的人受伤甚至死亡。

3因为事实是。

除非我们能宽恕他人,否则就永远无法恢复。

伤口会继续溃烂,永不愈合。

中国有句古谚,“复仇者必自绝”4对有些人来说。

宽恕他人似乎是不可能的,因为他们根本不知从何做起,首先你要接受一个非常重要的事实:宽恕他人并不是件容易的事。

事实上,对于我们大多数人来说。

这也许是最难做到的。

5被伤害的是我们,却还要宽恕他人,这似乎毫无公平可言。

然而这正是宽恕的关键所在。

6“宽恕并忘记”,这句俗话谁都会脱口而出,但实际上既简单又肤浅。

一则这是绝对不可能的,二则它完全偏离了宽恕的真正含义。

生活中最需要宽恕的事正是那些无法忘记的事。

我们不应把这些事掩饰起来,而需记住它们,并有意不因此对做过这些事的人怀有成见,然后继续生活。

7这就是为什么有的时候会感到:宽恕别人,一开始会相对容易些,难的是每次你看到那个人,与他谈话,甚至只是想起他之后如何控制自己的感情。

真正的宽恕不是一劳永逸之举,而是持久的情感面对。

8等待越久,宽恕就越难。

实际上,时间不会愈合伤口,只会让愤懑和仇恨更长时间地吞噬你的内心。

如果要等待“适当的时候”,你也许永远都找不到机会。

9开始运用宽恕的艺术之前,你先要问自己这样一个问题:我们中有多少人在特定的场合下是完全无辜的呢?10几年前,我和妻子买了一件便宜家具。

Complete the following passage with words and phrases chosen from Text A. The initial letter of each is given.Today young people tend to jump on the bandwagon of love with so much h aste (1) that they fail to realize the essence of true love. Given the current s tate o f a ffairs (2), we need to consider more closely the nature of love. True love has to be d istinguished (3) from the pleasures of the flesh. True love means a m eeting o f m inds (4) and it takes time to b lossom (5). People who are in true love focus more on i nner c harm (6) than on physical beauty, more on i ntimacy (7) than on closeness, more on e motion (8) than on passion, more on sharing than on a cquiring (9). As true love happens once in a lifetime, they have in their minds the i deals (10) of the relationship. They share mutual respect, a dmiration (11) and plenty of romance, so their relationship is l asting (12) and meaningful. Preserving true love requires effort, however. You should gift your object of a ffection (13) your time, company, support and friendship; you should give yourself and your beloved time and space to f orge (14) alife-long bond; and you should h onor (15) your commitments. In short, you should devote yourself to your love. Your devotion to love will, in return, bring you an o verwhelming (16) joy.Complete the following passage with words and phrases chosen from Text A. The initial letter of each is given.What is genuine friendship? Some c lassical (1) views may help us understand the n otion (2) of friendship more clearly. Aristotle distinguishes genuine friendship from two other forms: one based on mutual u tility (3) and the other on pleasure. While the g round (4) for the latter two forms of friendship is closely related to material benefits, short-term interests or age, genuine friendship o ccurs (5) only between those who are similar in their g oodness (6). Cicero, another ancient scholar, believes that true friends’ actions and lives should leave no question a s t o (7) their honor, purity, equity and liberality. Whether or not one p ossesses (8) any superiority over the other, both must regard themselves as equals of the other and try their best to preserve the friendship. Moreover, true friends are b ound (9) together, as a friend is said to be a m irror (10) in which you may perceive and know yourself. When v irtuous (11) friends share a c ommitment (12) to the good, they can recognize each other’s m oral e xcellence (13) and fulfill their self-improvement.Complete the following passage with words and phrases chosen from this unit. The initial letter of each is given.AIDS is a terrible disease. It poses a t hreat (1) to all the human beings without caring whether you are black or white, male or female, gay or straight, young or old. But what is a t r isk (2) now is not just the people i nfected (3) with the disease. Human civilization itself is being threatened. This is because the whole society tolerates both ignorance of and p rejudice (4) against HIV or AIDS. Once diagnosed (被诊断) as HIV-positive, the victims are i solated (5) or treated as outcasts. They are believed to have c ontracted (6) something evil or to have entered some alien state of being. As a result, these poor people have tos helter (7) the flickering candle of life from the cold wind of rejection by their family members. When they die of the disease, their families dare not whisper the word AIDS. They just g rieve (8) silently. Thus, our prejudice and silence have helped the disease a long (9). Now HIV marches firmly towards AIDS in more than a million American homes, littering its p athway (10) with the bodies of the young. To guard against the disease effectively, we must take this i ssue (11) seriously. People should be educated to b ring (12) those negative attitudes to an end. We should not see AIDS as something e vil (13) and the patients as alien. Instead, we should c oncern o urselves w ith (14) the prevention of the disease and render strong s upport (15) to the patients with more compassion. Only in this way can we have a better chance of winning the war against AIDS.Complete the following passage with words and phrases chosen from this unit. The initial letter of each is given.Mankind hopes for a better world to live in. T o t his e nd (1), man has to confront the inevitable conflicts that the future holds i n s tore (2). Since education plays an i ndispensable (3) role in managing those conflicts, the following four pillars of education are proposed. Learning to live together c alls f or (4) an understanding of others and awareness of the d iversity (5), similarities and interdependence of all people so that people can i mplement (6) joint projects.

Text
5 “Yes, yes, of course,” murmured the company, more and more agitated.
6 “Seldom has a city gained such world renown, and I am proud and happy to welcome you to Hiroshima, a town known throughout the world for its – oysters.”
Warming Up
HARRY TRUMAN: “The world will note that the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, a military base. We won the race of discovery against the Germans. We have used it in order to shorten the agony of war, in order to save the lives of thousands and thousands of young Americans. We shall continue to use it until we completely destroy Japan’s power to make war.” American planes dropped one of the bombs on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, and another on Nagasaki 3 days later. Exactly how many people in those 2 cities died from the force and heat of the blasts or later from radiation may never be known. The Radiation Effects Research Foundation in Japan estimates that between 150,000 and 246,000 died within 2 to 4 months of the bombings. Japan surrendered on August 15, 1945, 6 days after the Nagasaki bombing.

One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently; in a secondexample, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works; and in a third,young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hoursa day.10.

Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors.
— African proverb
Interpretation:
Sailing on rough seas, sailors are constantly faced with all kinds of hostile conditions. In their struggle against adversities, they can acquire survival skills in time. Similarly, the difficulties of life should make us better, not bitter. In the process of dealing with problems and difficulties, we can become more experienced in life. Therefore, instead of panicking or complaining in the face of adversity, we should see it as a challenge as well as a chance to improve our abilities.

Unit 1Key to ExercisesPart 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 lookat 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 justlook 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 — "you of tender years" — also have something to teach their parents, for learning is not a one-way street. Children should share 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."

There are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guidedapproach would be a superior way to guide children's development.

Translate the passageThough how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to many people, linguists believethat English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: theIndo-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.。

You may draw on some useful ideas and expressions from a variety of sources, such as the two texts in this unit or the Internet.1) Having read the two passages in this unit, you may have come to a better understandingof life and the times when pessimistic and optimistic thoughts take turns to affect your behaviour. Write a letter of encouragement (of about 150 words) to one of your high school friends who failed in the college entrance examination. Tell him or her about your new understanding of the need to remain optimistic.2) The writers of the two texts in this unit convey to us the message that we need to look atthe positive side of anything that comes to us and that we need to take an optimistic andpositive attitude toward life. Write an essay (of about 150 words) to share your ideas with your classmates. The following hints may be of some help:a. What is meant by “thinking positively”?b. What is the connection between success and optimism?c. How can we keep an optimistic and positive attitude?▆Sample Letter for Task 1:Dear Weihua,I know you are still feeling upset about your results in the college entrance examination. I’ve just read an article about how pessimistic and optimistic thoughts can affect our behaviour and I’m now sending you a copy, hoping that it will help you step out of the shadows.Naturally, failing the college entrance examination can be very depressing, yet if you continue to dwell on the past, you will never be able to pick yourself up and focus on what is more important for now and the future. Life is full of trials and anyone may suffer setbacks. We must take an optimistic attitude towards the things we have to deal with. Optimism and positive thinking are powerful forces. Good things do come true if we picture them often. Please do have confidence in your potential. Just work hard and prepare for another chance.You will make it.Yours,Janet(152 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:Thinking positively means allowing your mind to be filled with optimistic feelings, andalways hoping for the best though still aware of the difficulties that might be involved.The human mind is powerful; thoughts of optimism and pessimism can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Though it might seem impossible to some, positive thinking and success actually have a cause-and-result relationship. The reason is that a person with positive thinking will always broadcast goodwill and confidence and that kind of radiating attitude will take a hold on everybody.Gradually, people’s attitude will shift towards more trust and respect. This not only opens up more opportunities for the individual, but it also feeds back emotionally, and the cycle continues.Though the shaping of a positive or negative personality often happens subconsciously, it is possible to control such processes consciously. A person can try visualizing favourable situations, whether it is remembering a contest won as a child or imagining getting that job offer so long sought after. Over time circumstances will change accordingly.

She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice, because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the job opportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect her skills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chance came: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners would be given a scholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through her fingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certain that her dream will come true. (156 words)2) People may have different opinions about the key factors for success. Write a short essay(of about 150 words) and share your opinions with your classmates.Sample essay:In my opinion, before a person becomes successful, he or she should fully understand the basic elements of success: competence, determination and optimism.For a person to succeed, he or she has to face great competition and excel in his or her chosen career. The person needs to demonstrate and prove his or her competence in dealing with problems. Without competence, the person can neither stand out among the crowd nor attract the attention of those who hold the keys to the doors of opportunity and advancement.Yet ability alone cannot guarantee success. Often enough, things do not go the way wehave planned and failure is unavoidable no matter how intelligent or capable we may be. In such cases one needs to remain firm and optimistic, always believing that hard work will eventually pay off. If the person gives up halfway, success will never knock at the door.

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.。

新标准⼤学英语综合教程2Unit7课⽂翻译Unit 7Active reading (1)保护瑟伦要去⽇本学⽊⼯⼿艺,临⾛前他问我能否收留他的狗霍根。

我说:“当然可以,它可以保护我。

”最近我们家附近常有抢劫案发⽣,我在马塞诸塞州的房⼦北⾯靠湖,西⾯被树林环绕,晚上坏⼈可以神不知⿁不觉地溜进来。

瑟伦哈哈⼤笑。

他说:“有陌⽣⼈进门时,霍根也不⼀定会叫。

如果来了个夜贼,他或许还会去舔他。

”不过,霍根感觉到他跟我的关系与他跟瑟伦的关系有所不同。

瑟伦体格强壮,⽽且相对来说⽐较勇敢,他并不需要太多的保护。

匆忙赶路时,瑟伦会像抱⼩孩那样⼀下⼦把霍根抱到⽪卡的货箱上。

我可抱不动他,我的体重和霍根差不多,⽽且他还⽐我年轻⼒壮。

作为⼥⼈,我所⾯临的危险是瑟伦和霍根根本不可能知道的。

在我这⾥⽣活了⼀周之后,只要⼀有陌⽣⼈靠近家门,霍根就开始吠叫。

我们之间的保护关系其实早就存在了,起初我是保护者。

瑟伦第⼀次把霍根托付给我看管时,他Animal plane t Unit 7225还只是⼀只七个⽉⼤的⼩狗,它只在我家⾥过了⼀个周末。

那是11 ⽉底⼀个寒冷的早晨,湖⽔刚开始结冰。

湖⾯上的⼀层薄冰能托得住吹落的树叶和细⼩的树枝,但是还太脆弱,远不能承受动物的⽖⼦。

那时我正在后院晾⾐服,长长的晒⾐绳拴在房⼦旁的⼀棵参天橡树和湖边的⼀棵云杉之间。

⼀条淡蓝⾊的床单随风飘起,眼看着就要掠过湖⾯飞上天空。

当我奋⼒地⽤⾐服夹⼦夹床单时,霍根正在我腿边玩得⽓喘嘘嘘,⼀段两英尺长的橡树枝成了他的宝贝,被他叼来叼去。

由于⼀⼼只想着揪住床单,让它平整伏贴地悬挂在晒⾐绳上,我⼼不在焉地捡起那段树枝,朝⼭坡下将我们家院⼦与湖⽔隔开的围栏⽅向扔了过去。

我以前也经常这样为他扔⽊头。

根据⽊头的不同重量和我的动作的⼤⼩,我知道它们⼤概能飞多远。

但这块⽊头赶上了⼀阵疾风,朝着床单想去的⽅向飞过了院⼦,越过了围栏,最后以溜冰⾼⼿般的优美动作滑进湖⽔⾥。

我抬头⼀看,只见霍根飞速穿过院门,以⼀个漂亮的飞跃撞破薄冰,落⼊⽔中,他差⼀点就够得着那段⽊头了。

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 8Protecting Our Environment VocabularyI1.1)barking5)tragedies8)grim2)evil6)counterpart9)flocks; fed on3)brooding;7)are10)vegetationhatched complaining/co-11)patches4)migrant mplain12)Scores of2.1)was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguished foreignguests.2)the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office.3)wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed the crowedunnoticed.4)looked deserted.5)were stricken by it.3.1)patches; came into full bloom; were puzzled; mysterious2)throbbed with; sickened; migrant; a chorus3)had crept into; flickered; the starkII.Word Formation1.Compound words Chinese meaningage-old古老的air force空军daughter-in-law儿老婆first-rate一流的greenhouse温室half brother同母异父兄弟;同父异母兄弟ice-cream冰淇淋lifelike传神的light year光年salesperson售货员;销售员self-centered以自己为中心的,自私的threefold三倍overuse过分使用stone-still石头似的一动不动worldwide全球范围的;在世界范围内2.1)poverty-stricken people5)successful spacewalk2)heart-breaking news6)peace-loving people3)newly-built database7)need-based scholarships4)well-fed kids8)color-blind peopleIII.

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.

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.

Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors.
— African proverb
Interpretation:
Sailing on rough seas, sailors are constantly faced with all kinds of hostile conditions. In their struggle against adversities, they can acquire survival skills in time. Similarly, the difficulties of life should make us better, not bitter. In the process of dealing with problems and difficulties, we can become more experienced in life. Therefore, instead of panicking or complaining in the face of adversity, we should see it as a challenge as well as a chance to improve our abilities.

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
—Anne Bradstreet
Click Picture
Interpretation: We love spring and resent winter; we love prosperity and hate adversity. But just as white would have no meaning if there is no black as a contrast, we wouldn’t be able to appreciate the warm spring sun without having endured the cold of winter.
Through adversity we can approach truth. When we are going through difficult times, we are able to see things and people from an angle different from when we are successful. Hence we tend to see things more soberly and
Interpretation:
This quote tells us not to lose hope in the face of adversity. As we all know, we cannot see well when night falls, but against the dark background we find the shining stars in the sky. So, at a time when we think we are at our worst, we can always discover something that promises hope, such as friendship, love and care from the people who won’t desert us no matter what has happened.
