To my surprise, when I arrived at the address, I found it was a frail old lay who was awaiting me. After she got into the cab, I engaged her in conversation. I learnt that she was going to the hospice. Her doctor said she didn’t have very long. The old lady told me to drive through the downtown area. She pointed at some old buildings, telling me those were the places where she used to work or live. When the cab finally pulled up in front of the hospice, I didn’t accept her fare. In the rest of the day, I was lost in thought. Though I had to make a living, I lived not for the sole purpose of surviving. When circumstances looked gloomy, the small favour I had done could be a candle light. However faint the light was, it managed to warm up a soul and ennobled me as well.

As to what friendship is, we have read different definitions given by Aristotle, an ancient Greek philosopher,and Cicero, a Roman statesman. No one will deny that some people make friends simply for mutual utility. Once the ground for such friendship disappears, the friendship also breaks up. However, a lot more people long for “soul pals”— those who possess virtues and with whom we can go through trials and tribulations together. Such friendships keep us away from greed and violence and inspire us to have the courage of our convictions. Such is what we call “true friendship”.

Translate the following paragraph into English, using the words and expressions in the boxbelow.▇Answers for reference:A gold medal is a tribute to the athletic talent, determination and courage of an Olympic champion. Then how do the athletes make themselves fortunate enough to be so highly honored? The champions who have mounted the winners’ s tand can offer an answer based on their own experiences. First, in the course of training, they visualize themselves as champions. Once their dreams of becoming champions take shape, they will cling to them courageously. What’s more, top performers are driven to bring out their best. They discipline themselves and s queeze in every possible minute to practice every day. Despite their relentless efforts, they may sometimes fail to win or narrowly miss a gold medal, yet they believe in themselves and never lose heart. They are ready to take on the most psychologically and technically challenging tasks or competitions. In reality, all champions have experienced lots of hardships on their way to the vital break of their lifetime. So we won’t and can’t say that a champion is lucky. After all, luck only strikes those prepared to capitalize on it.Unit FiveListen and RespondTask One Focusing on the Main IdeasChoose the best answer to complete each of the following statements according to the information contained in the listening passage.1) One of the reasons for the annual increase in HIV infections is that________.A) people show little concern about HIVB) no effective cure for AIDS has been found yetC) people are unaware of the danger of HIVD) there is no way to prevent HIV from spreading2) The first reason given for AIDS education is ________.A) to prevent new infections from taking placeB) to help people know where HIV infections may happenC) to tell people how to protect themselves from HIV and AIDSD) to tell people about the two processes of prevention from HIV infections3) The second reason for AIDS education is ________.A) to curb the HIV infectionB) to ask hospitals to offer more helpC) to improve the quality of life for HIV-positive peopleD) to give financial aid to AIDS patients4) The third reason for AIDS education is ________.A) to reduce the fear of HIV and AIDSB) to bring down the death rate of AIDSC) to prevent the spread of HIVD) to protect HIV-positive people or AIDS patients5) The purpose of the passage is ________.A) to explain why we should overcome the fear of AIDSB) to criticize schools for neglecting AIDS educationC) to prove that the danger of AIDS has been overstated (夸大)D) to give the reasons for AIDS educationTask Two Zooming In on the DetailsListen to the passage again and fill in each of the blanks according to what you have heard.1) A survey in the UK found recently that a third of teenagers thought there was a “cure” for AIDS .

Electronic Teaching PortfolioBook ThreeUnit Two: LovePart I Get StartedSection A Discussion▇Sit in groups of threes or fours and discuss the following questions.1) Do you think love and marriage are important matters in our life? Why or why not?2) Dating and courtship is a common scene at college now. What do you think of it?3) What do you think are the most important factors that contribute to a stable love relationship? Give your reasons.▇ Answers for reference:1)Yes. It is human nature to feel attraction and affection between different sexes. A life without love is oftenregarded as imperfect. Those who are in love would long to stay together, and families resulting from love usually lay the foundation for a stable society.2)I t’s OK to start dating at college, because college students are already grown-ups in the legal sense. Noone has the right to interfere in such private matters. However, students’ top priority at college is to study and acquire knowledge and skills for their future careers. Dating and courtship will interfere with their studies. Therefore, some students tend to hold themselves back even if there are opportunities to start a romantic relationship.3)Many factors may contribute to a stable love relationship. Wealth, social status, appearances, familybackground, etc. may be considered as the external factors, which may help promote a love relationship.Wisdom, knowledge, character, personalities, etc. are the internal factors. Love based on external factors alone may not last long. Love based on the internal factors will survive whatever challenges or crises it may encounter. When two persons are in love, they should respect each other and be honest and faithful to each other. In essence, trust and understanding are the key factors that contribute to a successful love relationship.Section B Quotes▇Study the following quotes about love. Which quote(s) do you like best? Why?⊙The course of true love never did run smooth.—— William Shakespeare Interpretation:Shakespeare believes that a true relationship is not easy to establish. People have different personalities, concepts of value, preferences of life style, etc. When two persons of the opposite sex develop a love relationship, they have to try their best to understand each other and reconcile with each other.William ShakespeareAbout William Shakespeare:William Shakespeare (1564-616): an English writer of plays and poems, who is generally regarded as the greatest of all English writers. His many famous plays include the tragedies Romeo and Juliet (《罗密欧与朱丽叶》), Hamlet (《哈姆雷特》), Julius Caesar (《裘力斯·凯撒》), Macbeth (《麦克白》), Othello (《奥瑟罗》), and King Lear (《李尔王》); the comedies A Midsummer Night’s Dream (《仲夏夜之梦》), Twelfth Night (《第十二夜》), and As You Like It（皆大欢喜》).⊙To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.—— Bertrand Russell Interpretation:Here Russell emphasizes the importance of an active attitude towards love. We should not be afraid to fall in love just because it is not easy to find true love or just because of any possible setbacks. A life without love is as dull as a dying man because he lacks the energy and passion to enjoy life.Bertrand RussellAbout Bertrand Russell:Bertrand Russell (1872-970): a British philosopher and mathematician who developed new ideas connecting mathematics and logic. He is also known for being a pacifist (和平主义者). He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950.⊙Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl — no superior alternative has yet been found.—— Sir Winston Churchill Interpretation:The quotation emphasizes that true love is the only basis upon which a happy family is built. Only when the man and the woman love each other dearly and devotedly can they endure trials and tribulations in their common effort to build up a happy family.Sir Winston ChurchillAbout Sir Winston Churchill:Sir Winston Churchill (1874-965): a British statesman, soldier, and author who was Prime Minister during most of World War II and again from 1951 to 1955. He is remembered and admired by most British people as a great leader who made pos sible Britain’s victory in the war. He is also famous for the many speeches he made during the war. In 1953 Churchill was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his writing and oratory (演讲术).⊙It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving.—— Mother Teresa Interpretation:The quotation tells us the significant role that love plays in everything we do in life. Whatever we do, we should put adequate love into it so that others can feel our love and be affected by our love. What we can offer to others may be insignificant, but as long as there is love in it, the benefit will be significant. Here, love isunderstood in a broad sense.Mother TeresaAbout Mother Teresa:Mother Teresa (1910-997): an Albanian (阿尔巴尼亚) Roman Catholic nun (修女) who lived in India, where she worked to help the poor and the sick in the city of Calcutta (加尔各答). She won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1979, and people think of her as a typical example of someone who is kind, unselfish, and morally good.

Her husband said, “Let’s invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth.” His wife disagreed, “My dear, why don’t we invite Success?” Then the daughter made a suggestion: “Wouldn’t it be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love.” “Let’s take our daughter’s advice,” said the father.So the woman went out and asked, “Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest.” Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: “I only invited Love. Why are you coming in?”The old men replied together: “If you ha d invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would have stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever HE goes, we go with him.

The younger generation tends to be more hasty and selfish in building relationships.Part Four 13-14 The author advises young people to learn the essence of love and find ways to develop relationships into lifelong bonds.Section B In-Depth StudyLove is an overwhelming joy that is beyond description. It is human nature to yearn for and indulge in love, but true love takes a lot of understanding, much sharing and caring, and plenty of affection. What is true love? How deep is your love? The author shares her views with the younger generation on these questions.How Deep Is Your Love?Mansi Bhatia1Love to some is like a cloudTo some as strong as steelFor some a way of livingFor some a way to feelAnd some say love is holding onAnd some say let it goAnd some say love is everythingSome say they don’t know2 At some stage or the other in our lives we experience the gnawing pangs of an emotion which defies definition. It’s a feeling that can only be felt and not described. An overwhelming joy that comes together with its share of sadness. Love.3 Given the busy nature of our liv es, it’s to be appreciated that we even find the time to indulge in matters of the heart.But at the same time I wonder if we even understand its true depth. I remember having countless crushes while in school. My math teacher, our neighbour’s son, my best friend’s brother and lots of others whom I fancied for the colour of their eyes, the shape of their moustaches or just the way they walked. Harmless puppy loves that are as brief as soap bubbles. I can laugh about all those silly and adventurous thoughts and acts now but at that time nothing could be more serious an affair for me. Then came the stage of real relationships.4 Being in an all girls’ school I hardly had the opportunity to interact with members of the opposite gender. Socials between our sch ool and the boys’ college, therefore, would be awaited anxiously. Those three hours of unhesitant attention by a group of well-groomed young gentlemen provided us with enough content to talk and feel exhilarated about for the next four weeks.5 And even then there was no real need of having a boyfriend.6 I somehow grew up believing that love would happen when it had to. And sure enough it did. It came at an age when I had a career, a long-term plan and a more or less settled life (and now I am not yet 25!). I was mature enough to enter a relationship which demands a lot of give and not so much of take.7 Love was a magnificent building I built on the foundation of friendship. It took time to blossom. It took a lot of understanding, loads of sharing and caring, and plenty of affection to become what it is today. And it meant a meeting of minds. You might say that I belong to the traditional school of romance. But in my opinion, love needs to be nurtured. And it has to be distinguished from the intense but short-lived love or the pleasures of the flesh.8 Our parents’ generation was fed lavishly with ideals. It was an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, the calmness, the shy glance—these are all so frequently remindful of a bygone era. An age when the distance between the sexes somehow managed to help preserve the holiness of love and relationships.9 The younger generation, with its openness and fading lines of proximity, has jumped on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities. What we have been exposed to via the media have fast paced our sensibilities so much that taking things slow requires effort on our parts.10 I am amazed when I hear stories of school kids bragging about the number of physical relationships they have had. I am horrified to learn that girls barely eighteen have already been in and out of seven to eight “hook ups”.11 I am sorry to learn about the kind of emotional baggage these kids are carrying in what are purely unemotional relationships. Some might blame the current state of affairs on peer pressure. But has anyone ever stopped to figure out where this peer pressure originates? Do any of us try and understand who is responsible for this shift? Does anyone bother to study the state of mind of the teenagers?12 The mindset of this generation is all too evident in the way it handles its personal life.There are more relationships being distorted under the pressures of lust than ever before. There is more focus on physical beauty than on inner charm. There is more of closeness and less of intimacy. There is more of passion and less of emotion. There is more of acquiring and less of sharing. There is more of opportunism and less of selflessness.In short, there is more of ME and less of US.13 We have hardened ourselves so much in this competitive age that we have forgotten the essence of relationships. There’s much more to being someone’s lover than gifting them red roses and fifty-cent cards. What about gifting our object of affection, our time, our company, our support, our friendship? What about setting priorities in our lives and focusing on each with sincerity? What about trying to be self-sufficient emotionally before letting ourselves loose? What about giving ourselves, and others, time and space to forge relationships? What about working towards meaningful and lasting friendships? What about honouring our commitments? What about channeling our energies and emotions towards building lifelong bonds ratherthan wasting them on seasonal relationships?14 We have but one life and we must experience everything that can make us stronger. True love happens once in a lifetime. And we should not have become so tired by our frivolous acts that when it comes we aren’t able to receive it with open arms.▇课文参考译文你的爱有多深曼茜·巴蒂亚1 有人认为爱如浮云有人认为爱坚强如铁有人认为爱是一种生活方式有人认为爱是一种感觉有人说爱要执着有人说爱不要约束有人说爱是生命的全部有人说不知道爱为何物2 在我们生命中的某个阶段，我们会经历某种难以名状的情感所带来的阵阵折磨。

Aunt Susan was still in the grief of losing Uncle Robert. In her soft voice she told us about their past years. Uncle Robert joined the army shortly after they were engaged. Given the critical situation at the time when lots of army men didn’t return alive, you can imagine how much horrified Aunt Susan was every day, and how much overjoyed she was to see Uncle Robert back safe and sound from the European battlefield. Then they got married and brought up five children. For all those years, their affection for each other grew stronger in the course of overcoming difficulties and hardships in life. I was fascinated byAunt Susan’s story, which was totally different from my ideal of love. They practiced, in their daily life, giving and sharing instead of pursuing passion and romance, or making complaints. Amazingly, such love lasted through their whole life.Theme-Related WritingDo either one of the following two tasks after class.1. Based on Text A, write a passage about the different ways different generations handle male-female relationships. The following hints may be of some help.1) “our” parents’ generation (details mainly found in Para. 8);2) “my” generation (details mainly found in Paras. 3–7);3) the younger generation (details mainly found in Paras. 9–11).2. Study the following data on love and marriage based on a survey with girl students. Write a passage on the topic “What do girl students look for in love and life?”▆ Sample Essay One:Male-female relations are indispensable to adults all through their lives. But different generations handle them differently. Our parents’ generation lived in an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. They kept a distance from people of the opposite gender in order to preserve the holiness of love and relationships.My generation, on the other hand, began with countless crushes for the opposite sex just because of their superficial charm. Harmless as they were, the love was as brief as soap bubbles. As we grew up, we came to the stage of developing real relationships, believing that love demanded a lot of give and not so much of take.By comparison, the younger generation is more open-minded and less restricted in handling the matter of love and relationships. They jump on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities.In short, the younger generation focuses more on physical beauty, closeness and passion, and they tend to seek what they want from the relationships. The other two generations give priority to inner charm, intimacy, emotion and sharing in dealing with relationships. (196 words)▆Sample Essay Two:What Do Girl Students Look for in Love and Life?In order to know about girl students’ opinion about love and life, a survey with girl students was conducted in 2005 in two universities — Chongqing University of Technology and Business and East China Normal University. The survey sought answers to two questions: What do you look fo r first in a boyfriend? What’s the most important thing for a happy life?About one third of the students chose personality as the top factor in choosing a boyfriend, followed by 27 percent focusing on abilities. Next came common interests and goals, favoured by 17 percent, with only 14 percent of students claiming appearance to be uppermost in their minds. Fewer still, 11 percent, rated economic status as the first consideration.As to their views about a happy life, nearly seventy percent of the girls attached the greatest importance to marriage and family. “Career” was given top priority by just under 20 percent, while even fewer, around 9 percent, believed that money was the key to a happy life.Based on the survey, we may conclude that nowadays, girl students generally hold a rational attitude towards love and life. Admittedly, the improved material conditions of life explain why girls take economic status and money rather lightly. But contrary to the popular view that girls are more concerned about self-development in the workplace and social status, they still regard marriage and family life as central to a happy life.

综合教程3 Unit2 课后习题答案
An Integrated English Course IIIUnit 2Text 1 Tyranny of the UrgentKey to ExercisesText comprehensionI. Decide which of the following is the biggest problem we may have in using our time.C. Jumbled priorities are, according to Hummel, the biggest problem we have in time management. Hummel points out in the third paragraph that the real problem is not shortage of time but that of priorities. We have spent too much time dealing with urgent tasks that are hardly important in the long run while neglecting those that are truly important.II. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F. A day with thirty hours is almost as good as one with twenty-four in relieving us of the pressure because the problem is not the length of time but the way to spend our time. Even if we have a 30-hour day, we still cannot finish all the tasks required because there is simply no end to any type of work.2. F. The passage of time will not help us to catch up because we may be charged with more important tasks, or simply more tasks, with the passage of time. A mother's work is never finished when her children grow up; nor is that of a manager when he mounts a higher position in his company.3. F. Hard work does not wear us out. We can still feel a sense of achievement and joy upon accomplishing a difficult and important task. It is doubt and misgiving that make us weary when we look back and find so many tasks left undone that should have been finished.4. T. Urgent things are those that call for immediate action and hold momentary appeals; they are not necessarily important in the long term. Important things rarely must be done today or tomorrow.III. Answer the following questions.1. No. We must ensure we are working hard on important things rather than those that are merely urgent.2. Learning to prioritize. We shouldn't let the urgent crowd out the truly important things while merely doing those that are not really important.3. Because urgent things call for instant attention and immediate action while important things hardly do so. If we crowd our schedule with too many urgent engagements, we will have less time to deal with truly important things.4. The development of modem science and technology, especially that of the modem means of communication, is accused as an accomplice of the tyranny of the urgent. The telephone line has tied us to the fast-growing outside world to which we have to give instant response. So our life has been cursed with endless callings and intrusions, for which the development of modem technology is partially responsible.5. No. The message the writer wants to convey is that we should not let urgent things crowd out important things. He does not mean we should leave urgent things unnoticed.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken from the text.1. He did not realize what an impact his words had on me. They often return to my mind andreproach me with the grave problem of priorities.2. But from a long-term perspective, they no longer seem to be important as they promised, and we suffer from a sense of loss when we recall those important tasks left undone.Structural analysis of the textThe writer supports his argument by using a number of facts and examples in addition to reasoning.Rhetorical features of the textSo we find ourselves working more and enjoying it less (Paragraph 2 ); "we have left undone those things, which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done" ( Paragraph 3).Vocabulary exercisesI. Explain the underlined part in each sentence in your own words.1. a series of; a number of (tasks) that come one after the other2. demanding more care, effort and attention3. weighed on my mind; affected me4. earnest call for instant attention5. in view of6. been dominated byII. Fill in the blank in each sentence with a word taken from the box in the proper form.1. prominent 2:. rebuked 3. breach 4. priority5. haunt6. tyranny7. imperious8. misgivingIII. Fill in the blank in each sentence with an appropriate phrasal verb or collocation taken from the text.1. crowded out2. catch up3. calls/called for4. involved in5. pushing aside6. wish forIV. Fill in the blanks' with the appropriate forms of the given words.1. tyrants2. urgency3. relieved4. undoubtedly5. irresistibly6. deceiveV. Explain the underlined phrasal verbs in your own words.1. affects2. catching up with 3, been involved in4. doing5. tell6. rejectedGrammar exercisesI. Note how the coordinated structures are joined together in the following sentences.Pay attention to the connectors and punctuation marks used in the coordinated structures.Note that the connectors and, but, or and nor are frequently followed by shortened sentences. II. Complete the following sentences using proper coordinators.1. not only ... but also2. Either or3. and4. or5. so6. and7. neither ... nor8. butIII. Combine the following sentences into a paragraph, using coordinators. Make other changes if necessary.The recorded history of mankind is only 6,000 or 7,000 years, but within that short period of time many civilizations have risen and fallen. The people of the Nile Valley created a high culture, and so did the people of the Tigris-Euphrates Valley, but both of these cultures disappeared. They were absorbed into the Greco-Roman culture that dominated the Mediterranean world, but this civilization also disintegrated in time.IV. Punctuate the following sentences, using commas or stops. Make some changes if necessary.1. The butterfly is a marvel. It begins as an ugly caterpillar and turns into a work of art.2. The earthquake was devastating, Tall buildings crumbled and fell to the earth.3. The child hid behind his mother, for he was afraid of the dog.4. We have to help the children. Or, more precisely, we have to help them to help themselves.5. Both John and I had many errands to do: yesterday. John had to go to the post office and bookstore. I had to go to the drugstore, the travel agency and the bank.6. He's walking in the garden, the dog is playing at his feet, and the children are following him. V. Make sentences of your own after tile sentences given below, keeping the underlined parts in your sentences.1. He considers Jane's opinion as valuable as any of ours.Waves of red light are about twice as long as waves of blue light.2. He taught himself to play the violin by practicing all night.I did not think she would do any good by coming over.Translation exercisesI.

Listed below are some examples. Discuss with your partner how and why the writers use such rhetorical devices. The explanation of the first one is provided.1) Harmless puppy loves that are as brief as soap bubbles. (Para. 3, Text A) Simile: “Soap bubbles” is used to emphasize the brief period of time that puppy loves last.2) Love was a magnificent building I built on the foundation of friendship. It took time to blossom. (Para. 7, Text A)Metaphor: “Magnificent building” is used to imply that love should be developed in the same way as we build or construct a building and that, like a building, love should be based on something. “To blossom” is also a metaphor, which implies that love can be as beautiful as a flower but it takes time to have it develop or grow.3) Our parents’ generation was fed lavishly with ideals. (Para. 8, Text A) Metaphor: Here “(be) fed (with)” is used metaphorically, meaning that, people of her parents’ generation were taught to pursue love and relationships strictly according to the “ideals” of the time, these ideals nourishing their mental needs much as food does the body.4) I am sorry to learn about the kind of emotional baggage school kids are carrying in what are purely unemotional relationships. (Para. 10, Text A) Metaphor: “Baggage” is used to indicate the heavy burden that school children have to shoul der when they pursue “purely unemotional relationships.”5) What about giving ourselves, and others, time and space to forge relationships? (Para. 12, Text A)Metaphor: “To forge” implies that relationships are like iron and require plenty of tempering before they become as solid and strong as steel.6) For seven-and-a-half months, my grief for my husband had been frozen within me like an icy presence that would not yield. (Para. 12, Text B) Simile: “Frozen” and “icy presence” are used to imply that during the seven-and-a-half months after her husband died, the author had managed to bury the grief for her husband deep down in her heart as if it had turned into something like ice.7) Then, this last Sunday of February, I was undone by the simple presence of emery boards. (Para. 12, Text B)Metaphor: “Was undone” emphasizes the sudden release or outbreak of her grief, as if a knot came loose or untied unexpectedly.Enhance Your Language AwarenessWords in ActionWorking with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in thisunit.

Electronic Teaching PortfolioBook ThreeUnit Two: LovePart I Get StartedSection A Discussion▇Sit in groups of threes or fours and discuss the following questions.1) Do you think love and marriage are important matters in our life? Why or why not?2) Dating and courtship is a common scene at college now. What do you think of it?3) What do you think are the most important factors that contribute to a stable love relationship? Give your reasons.▇ Answers for reference:1)Yes. It is human nature to feel attraction and affection between different sexes. A life without love is oftenregarded as imperfect. Those who are in love would long to stay together, and families resulting from love usually lay the foundation for a stable society.2)I t’s OK to start dating at college, because college students are already grown-ups in the legal sense. Noone has the right to interfere in such private matters. However, students’ top priority at college is to study and acquire knowledge and skills for their future careers. Dating and courtship will interfere with their studies. Therefore, some students tend to hold themselves back even if there are opportunities to start a romantic relationship.3)Many factors may contribute to a stable love relationship. Wealth, social status, appearances, familybackground, etc. may be considered as the external factors, which may help promote a love relationship.Wisdom, knowledge, character, personalities, etc. are the internal factors. Love based on external factors alone may not last long. Love based on the internal factors will survive whatever challenges or crises it may encounter. When two persons are in love, they should respect each other and be honest and faithful to each other. In essence, trust and understanding are the key factors that contribute to a successful love relationship.Section B Quotes▇Study the following quotes about love. Which quote(s) do you like best? Why?⊙The course of true love never did run smooth.—— William Shakespeare Interpretation:Shakespeare believes that a true relationship is not easy to establish. People have different personalities, concepts of value, preferences of life style, etc. When two persons of the opposite sex develop a love relationship, they have to try their best to understand each other and reconcile with each other.William ShakespeareAbout William Shakespeare:William Shakespeare (1564-616): an English writer of plays and poems, who is generally regarded as the greatest of all English writers. His many famous plays include the tragedies Romeo and Juliet (《罗密欧与朱丽叶》), Hamlet (《哈姆雷特》), Julius Caesar (《裘力斯·凯撒》), Macbeth (《麦克白》), Othello (《奥瑟罗》), and King Lear (《李尔王》); the comedies A Midsummer Night’s Dream (《仲夏夜之梦》), Twelfth Night (《第十二夜》), and As You Like It（皆大欢喜》).⊙To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.—— Bertrand Russell Interpretation:Here Russell emphasizes the importance of an active attitude towards love. We should not be afraid to fall in love just because it is not easy to find true love or just because of any possible setbacks. A life without love is as dull as a dying man because he lacks the energy and passion to enjoy life.Bertrand RussellAbout Bertrand Russell:Bertrand Russell (1872-970): a British philosopher and mathematician who developed new ideas connecting mathematics and logic. He is also known for being a pacifist (和平主义者). He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950.⊙Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl — no superior alternative has yet been found.—— Sir Winston Churchill Interpretation:The quotation emphasizes that true love is the only basis upon which a happy family is built. Only when the man and the woman love each other dearly and devotedly can they endure trials and tribulations in their common effort to build up a happy family.Sir Winston ChurchillAbout Sir Winston Churchill:Sir Winston Churchill (1874-965): a British statesman, soldier, and author who was Prime Minister during most of World War II and again from 1951 to 1955. He is remembered and admired by most British people as a great leader who made possible Britain’s victory in the war. He is also famous for the many speeches he made during the war. In 1953 Churchill was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his writing and oratory (演讲术).⊙It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving.—— Mother Teresa Interpretation:The quotation tells us the significant role that love plays in everything we do in life. Whatever we do, we should put adequate love into it so that others can feel our love and be affected by our love. What we can offer to others may be insignificant, but as long as there is love in it, the benefit will be significant. Here, love isunderstood in a broad sense.Mother TeresaAbout Mother Teresa:Mother Teresa (1910-997): an Albanian (阿尔巴尼亚) Roman Catholic nun (修女) who lived in India, where she worked to help the poor and the sick in the city of Calcutta (加尔各答). She won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1979, and people think of her as a typical example of someone who is kind, unselfish, and morally good. Section C Watching and Discussion▇He's Just Not That Into You is a 2009 romantic comedy film about how nine people in Baltimore deal with their romantic problems. Watch the following video clip extracted from this film and then complete the tasks that follow:1.Pay attention to what the woman says in the video clip and fill in the missing words.I. See, you can’t keep being nice to me and I can’t keep pretending like this is something that it’s not.We’ve been t ogether over seven years. You know me. You know who I am. You either wanna marry me or you don’t.II. …for every woman that has been told by some man that he doesn’t believe in marriage and then six months later, he’s married to some twenty-four-year-old that he met at the gym.III. It’s coming from the place that I have been hiding from you for about five years. About five years because I haven’t wanted to seem demanding, and I haven’t wanted to seem clingy or psycho orwhatever. So I have never asked you.2.What can you infer from the conversation between the man and the woman in the video clip?▇Answers for reference:(Open.)Script：BETH：Now.

You know me. You know who I am. You either wanna marry me or you don’t.NEIL: Or there is the possibility that I mean it when I say I don’t believe in marriage.BETH: Bullshit! Bullshit! Come on! Bullshit for every woman that has been told by some man that he doesn’t believe in marriage and then six months later, he’s married to some twenty-four-year-old that he met at the gym. It’s just —it’s Bullshit.(Beth tries to hold back her tears. Neil looks stunned and goes to her.)NEIL: Where is this coming from?BETH: It’s coming f rom the place that I have been hiding from you for about five years. About five years because I haven’t wanted to seem demanding, and I haven’t wanted to seem clingy or psycho orwhatever. So I have never asked you. But I — but I — I have to.

Write down the main idea of each part.Paragraph(s) Main IdeaPart One 1-2 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Part Two 3-7 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Part Three 8-12 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Part Four 13-14 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________▆ Answers for Reference:Paragraph(s) Main IdeaPart One 1-2 Love is hard to define because it can only be felt but not described.Part Two 3-7 The author discusses love of different depths from her own experiences.Part Three 8-12 The two generations handle love and relationships differently. The younger generation tends to be more hasty and selfish in building relationships.Part Four 13-14 The author advises young people to learn the essence of love and find ways to develop relationships into lifelong bonds.Section B In-Depth StudyLove is an overwhelming joy that is beyond description. It is human nature to yearn for and indulge in love, but true love takes a lot of understanding, much sharing and caring, and plenty of affection. What is true love? How deep is your love? The author shares her views with the younger generation on these questions.How Deep Is Your Love?Mansi Bhatia1Love to some is like a cloudTo some as strong as steelFor some a way of livingFor some a way to feelAnd some say love is holding onAnd some say let it goAnd some say love is everythingSome say they don’t know2 At some stage or the other in our lives we experience the gnawing pangs of an emotion which defies definition. It’s a feeling that can only be felt and not described. An overwhelming joy that comes together with its share of sadness. Love.3 Given the busy nature of our lives, it’s to be appreciated that we even find the time to ind ulge in matters of the heart.But at the same time I wonder if we even understand its true depth. I remember having countless crushes while in school. My math teacher, our neighbour’s son, my best friend’s brother and lots of others whom I fancied for the colour of their eyes, the shape of their moustaches or just the way they walked. Harmless puppy loves that are as brief as soap bubbles. I can laugh about all those silly and adventurous thoughts and acts now but at that time nothing could be more serious an affair for me. Then came the stage of real relationships.4 Being in an all girls’ school I hardly had the opportunity to interact with members of the opposite gender. Socials between our school and the boys’ college, therefore, would be awaited anxio usly. Those three hours of unhesitant attention by a group of well-groomed young gentlemen provided us with enough content to talk and feel exhilarated about for the next four weeks.5 And even then there was no real need of having a boyfriend.6 I somehow grew up believing that love would happen when it had to. And sure enough it did. It came at an age when I had a career, a long-term plan and a more or less settled life (and now I am not yet 25!). I was mature enough to enter a relationship which demands a lot of give and not so much of take.7 Love was a magnificent building I built on the foundation of friendship. It took time to blossom. It took a lot of understanding, loads of sharing and caring, and plenty of affection to become what it is today. And it meant a meeting of minds. You might say that I belong to the traditional school of romance. But in my opinion, love needs to be nurtured. And it has to be distinguished from the intense but short-lived love or the pleasures of the flesh.8 Our p arents’ generation was fed lavishly with ideals. It was an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, the calmness, the shy glance—these are all so frequently remindful of a bygone era. An age when the distance between the sexes somehow managed to help preserve the holiness of love and relationships.9 The younger generation, with its openness and fading lines of proximity, has jumped on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities. What we have been exposed to via the media have fast paced our sensibilities so much that taking things slow requires effort on our parts.10 I am amazed when I hear stories of school kids bragging about the number of physical relationships they have had. I am horrified to learn that girls barely eighteen have already been in and out of seven to eight “hook ups”.11 I am sorry to learn about the kind of emotional baggage these kids are carrying in what are purely unemotional relationships. Some might blame the current state of affairs on peer pressure. But has anyone ever stopped to figure out where this peer pressure originates? Do any of us try and understand who is responsible for this shift? Does anyone bother to study the state of mind of the teenagers?12 The mindset of this generation is all too evident in the way it handles its personal life.There are more relationships being distorted under the pressures of lust than ever before. There is more focus on physical beauty than on inner charm. There is more of closeness and less of intimacy. There is more of passion and less of emotion. There is more of acquiring and less of sharing. There is more of opportunism and less of selflessness.In short, there is more of ME and less of US.13 We have hardened ourselves so much in this competitive age that we have forgotten the essence of relationships. There’s much more to being someone’s lover than gifting them red roses and fifty-cent cards. What about gifting our object of affection, our time, our company, our support, our friendship? What about setting priorities in our lives and focusing on each with sincerity? What about trying to be self-sufficient emotionally before letting ourselves loose? What about giving ourselves, and others, time and space to forge relationships? What about working towards meaningful and lasting friendships? What about honouring our commitments? What about channeling our energies and emotions towards building lifelong bonds ratherthan wasting them on seasonal relationships?14 We have but one life and we must experience everything that can make us stronger. True love happens once in a lifetime. And we should not have become so tired by our frivolous acts that when it comes we aren’t able to receive it with open arms.▇课文参考译文你的爱有多深曼茜·巴蒂亚1 有人认为爱如浮云有人认为爱坚强如铁有人认为爱是一种生活方式有人认为爱是一种感觉有人说爱要执着有人说爱不要约束有人说爱是生命的全部有人说不知道爱为何物2 在我们生命中的某个阶段，我们会经历某种难以名状的情感所带来的阵阵折磨。

To my surprise, when I arrived at the address, I found it was a frail old lay who was awaiting me. After she got into the cab, I engaged her in conversation. I learnt that she was going to the hospice. Her doctor said she didn’t have very long. The old lady told me to drive through the downtown area. She pointed at some old buildings, telling me those were the places where she used to work or live. When the cab finally pulled up in front of the hospice, I didn’t accept her fare. In the rest of the day, I was lost in thought. Though I had to make a living, I lived not for the sole purpose of surviving. When circumstances looked gloomy, the small favour I had done could be a candle light. However faint the light was, it managed to warm up a soul and ennobled me as well. I did take pride in that small favour.Unit TwoLoveEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▆Working with Words and ExpressionsIn the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

Then they got married and brought up five children. For all those years, their affection for each other grew stronger in the course of overcoming difficulties and hardships in life. I was fascinated by Aunt Susan’s story, which was totally different from my ideal of love. They practiced, in their daily life, giving and sharing instead of pursuing passion and romance, or making complaints.

Translate the following paragraph into English, using the words and expressions in the boxbelow.▇Answers for reference:A gold medal is a tribute to the athletic talent, determination and courage of an Olympic champion. Then how do the athletes make themselves fortunate enough to be so highly honored? The champions who have mounted the winners’ s tand can offer an answer based on their own experiences. First, in the course of training, they visualize themselves as champions. Once their dreams of becoming champions take shape, they will cling to them courageously. What’s more, top performers are driven to bring out their best. They discipline themselves and s queeze in every possible minute to practice every day. Despite their relentless efforts, they may sometimes fail to win or narrowly miss a gold medal, yet they believe in themselves and never lose heart. They are ready to take on the most psychologically and technically challenging tasks or competitions. In reality, all champions have experienced lots of hardships on their way to the vital break of their lifetime. So we won’t and can’t say that a champion is lucky. After all, luck only strikes those prepared to capitalize on it.Unit FiveListen and RespondTask One Focusing on the Main IdeasChoose the best answer to complete each of the following statements according to the information contained in the listening passage.1) One of the reasons for the annual increase in HIV infections is that________.A) people show little concern about HIVB) no effective cure for AIDS has been found yetC) people are unaware of the danger of HIVD) there is no way to prevent HIV from spreading2) The first reason given for AIDS education is ________.A) to prevent new infections from taking placeB) to help people know where HIV infections may happenC) to tell people how to protect themselves from HIV and AIDSD) to tell people about the two processes of prevention from HIV infections3) The second reason for AIDS education is ________.A) to curb the HIV infectionB) to ask hospitals to offer more helpC) to improve the quality of life for HIV-positive peopleD) to give financial aid to AIDS patients4) The third reason for AIDS education is ________.A) to reduce the fear of HIV and AIDSB) to bring down the death rate of AIDSC) to prevent the spread of HIVD) to protect HIV-positive people or AIDS patients5) The purpose of the passage is ________.A) to explain why we should overcome the fear of AIDSB) to criticize schools for neglecting AIDS educationC) to prove that the danger of AIDS has been overstated (夸大)D) to give the reasons for AIDS educationTask Two Zooming In on the DetailsListen to the passage again and fill in each of the blanks according to what you have heard.1) A survey in the UK found recently that a third of teenagers thought there was a “cure” for AIDS .

Chronobiology tells people how to coordinate their activities with their biological capacities so that they can achieve their best with the least effort.5) What approach has been developed to help a person recognize his body’s patterns?Winget and his associates have developed a simple approach. It is to record 6 readings of a person’s temperature all throughout the day and put the readings on graph paper.

In most people, this peak lasts about four hours. For mental activities, the timetable is more complicated. Precision tasks such as mathematical work are best tackled when your temperature is on the rise. For most people, this is at 8 or 9 a.m. By contrast, reading and reflection are better done between 2 and 4 p.m., which is the time when body temperature usually begins to fall.7) What tips does chronobiology offer for effective dieting?。

综合教程3 Unit2 课后习题答案
An Integrated English Course IIIUnit 2Text 1 Tyranny of the UrgentKey to ExercisesText comprehensionI. Decide which of the following is the biggest problem we may have in using our time.C. Jumbled priorities are, according to Hummel, the biggest problem we have in time management. Hummel points out in the third paragraph that the real problem is not shortage of time but that of priorities. We have spent too much time dealing with urgent tasks that are hardly important in the long run while neglecting those that are truly important.II. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F. A day with thirty hours is almost as good as one with twenty-four in relieving us of the pressure because the problem is not the length of time but the way to spend our time. Even if we have a 30-hour day, we still cannot finish all the tasks required because there is simply no end to any type of work.2. F. The passage of time will not help us to catch up because we may be charged with more important tasks, or simply more tasks, with the passage of time. A mother's work is never finished when her children grow up; nor is that of a manager when he mounts a higher position in his company.3. F. Hard work does not wear us out. We can still feel a sense of achievement and joy upon accomplishing a difficult and important task. It is doubt and misgiving that make us weary when we look back and find so many tasks left undone that should have been finished.4. T. Urgent things are those that call for immediate action and hold momentary appeals; they are not necessarily important in the long term. Important things rarely must be done today or tomorrow.III. Answer the following questions.1. No. We must ensure we are working hard on important things rather than those that are merely urgent.2. Learning to prioritize. We shouldn't let the urgent crowd out the truly important things while merely doing those that are not really important.3. Because urgent things call for instant attention and immediate action while important things hardly do so. If we crowd our schedule with too many urgent engagements, we will have less time to deal with truly important things.4. The development of modem science and technology, especially that of the modem means of communication, is accused as an accomplice of the tyranny of the urgent. The telephone line has tied us to the fast-growing outside world to which we have to give instant response. So our life has been cursed with endless callings and intrusions, for which the development of modem technology is partially responsible.5. No. The message the writer wants to convey is that we should not let urgent things crowd out important things. He does not mean we should leave urgent things unnoticed.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken from the text.1. He did not realize what an impact his words had on me. They often return to my mind andreproach me with the grave problem of priorities.2. But from a long-term perspective, they no longer seem to be important as they promised, and we suffer from a sense of loss when we recall those important tasks left undone.Structural analysis of the textThe writer supports his argument by using a number of facts and examples in addition to reasoning.Rhetorical features of the textSo we find ourselves working more and enjoying it less (Paragraph 2 ); "we have left undone those things, which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done" ( Paragraph 3).Vocabulary exercisesI. Explain the underlined part in each sentence in your own words.1. a series of; a number of (tasks) that come one after the other2. demanding more care, effort and attention3. weighed on my mind; affected me4. earnest call for instant attention5. in view of6. been dominated byII.

Note how the coordinated structures are joined together in the following sentences.Pay attention to the connectors and punctuation marks used in the coordinated structures.Note that the connectors and, but, or and nor are frequently followed by shortened sentences. II. Complete the following sentences using proper coordinators.1. not only ... but also2. Either or3. and4. or5. so6. and7. neither ... nor8. butIII. Combine the following sentences into a paragraph, using coordinators. Make other changes if necessary.The recorded history of mankind is only 6,000 or 7,000 years, but within that short period of time many civilizations have risen and fallen. The people of the Nile Valley created a high culture, and so did the people of the Tigris-Euphrates Valley, but both of these cultures disappeared. They were absorbed into the Greco-Roman culture that dominated the Mediterranean world, but this civilization also disintegrated in time.IV. Punctuate the following sentences, using commas or stops. Make some changes if necessary.1. The butterfly is a marvel. It begins as an ugly caterpillar and turns into a work of art.2. The earthquake was devastating, Tall buildings crumbled and fell to the earth.3. The child hid behind his mother, for he was afraid of the dog.4. We have to help the children. Or, more precisely, we have to help them to help themselves.5. Both John and I had many errands to do: yesterday. John had to go to the post office and bookstore. I had to go to the drugstore, the travel agency and the bank.6. He's walking in the garden, the dog is playing at his feet, and the children are following him. V. Make sentences of your own after tile sentences given below, keeping the underlined parts in your sentences.1.

The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, thecalmness, the shy glance —these are all so frequently remindful of a bygoneera.

And we should not have become so tired by our frivolous acts that when it comes we aren’t able to receive it with open arms.
