Youranswer:When we talk about what can contribute to a person's success, many words, such as perseverance, creativity, luck, and so on, will appear in our minds. Some people argue that luck has nothing to do with a person's success and attribute a person's success to many other factors. In my opinion, however, luck sometimes plays an indispensable role in one's success. Luck is not something that we can control, but being lucky really helps in one's success. Personally I think it is better to be lucky than to be rich. If you are poor but lucky, you might berich someday. If you are rich but unlucky, you are in trouble.Though persistence and some other factors contribute to one's success, luck will help one to be successful more quickly. For example, the famous inventor Edison, who invented the electric bulb in the 19th century. Throughout his invention process, we can see what an important role persistence and other factors played, but at the same time we must admit luck also played apart.IfithadnotoccurredtoEdisontousemetalinhisexperiment, thelightmightnothaveappeareduntilthenextcentury.creativity, and some other things, luck will help a person to succeed to some extent.Reference answer: When we talk about what can contribute to a person's success, many words, such as perseverance, creativity, luck, and so on, will appear in our minds.

Then give a speech based on the following outline:1. What is friendship?2.

In this sense, friendship involves mutual knowledge, esteem, affection, and respect, along with an element of rendering service to friends in times of need or crisis. Friends will welcome each other's company and exhibit loyalty towards each other. Their tastes will usually be similar and may converge, and they will share enjoyable activities. They will also engage in mutually helpful behavior, such as the exchange of advice and the sharing of hardship.Friendship is a relationship which takes time to build and takes work and understanding. If there is something wrong with your friendship, in order to save it you really need to understand what exactly has taken place and had a negative influence on the relationship. It requires communication. It requires sitting down with your friend and saying, "What happened?" "What did I do?" "What did I do that was offensive?"If you want to maintain a friendship, you should always stand up for your friend, especially in his or her absence. Always give emotional support to your friends. When you and your friends are together, try to make your friends happy. You should always offer tohelp your friends in times of need. You also should keep confidences. When your friends tell you something, they only want you to know; it's for your ears only.B. Story dictationListen to a story and fill in the missing words. The story will be read three times.

But he declined, stating that he had important work to do for his master. He felt sure, he said, that all her other friends would come to her assistance. She then applied to the bull, hoping that (2)(he would repel the hounds) with his horns. The bull replied, "I am very sorry, but I have an appointment with a lady; but I feel sure that our friend the goat will do what you want." The goat, however, feared that his back (3)(might do her some harm ) if he took her upon it. The ram, he felt sure, was the proper friend to ask for help. So she went to the ram and told him her case. The ram replied, "Another time, my dear friend. I do not want to interfere on the present occasion, as hounds have been known to eat sheep as well as hares." The hare then applied, as a last hope, to the calf, (4)(who regretted that he was unable to help her), as he did not want to take the responsibility upon himself, as so many older persons than himself had declined the task. By this time the hounds were quite near, and the hare took to her heels and (5)(was lucky to escape). The moral of the story is that he that has many friends has no friends.。

大学英语视听说2答案Unit 1 - Social Networking SitesListening Comprehension1. A2. B3. C4. D5. B6. A7. C8. A9. D10. CSpeaking1.Personally, I think social networking sites have both advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, they provide a platform for people to connect and communicate with each other. We can easily find and reconnect with old friends and relatives. On the other hand, excessive use of social networking sites can lead to addiction and distraction from more important tasks. It is important to find a balance and use social networking sites in a responsible and meaningful way.2.In my opinion, social networking sites have had a significant impact on society. They have made it easier for people to stay connected with friends and family, regardless of geographical distance. They have also facilitated the sharing and exchange of ideas and information. However, they have also contributed to the spread of fake news and cyberbullying. It is crucial for individuals to use social networking sites responsibly and critically evaluate the information they encounter.3.I believe that social networking sites have changed the way we communicate. They have made communication more convenient and instantaneous. We can easily share our thoughts, photos, and videos with a wide audience. However, this ease of communication can also lead to impulsive and thoughtless posting. It is important to think before we post and consider the potential consequences of our online actions.WritingSocial networking sites have become an integral part of our daily lives. They provide a platform for people to connect, communicate, and share information. However, with the increasing popularity of these sites, there are concerns about their impact on society. In this essay, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of social networking sites.One of the main advantages of social networking sites is that they facilitate communication. People can easily connect with friends, family, and even acquaintances from different parts of the world. It is now possible to stay in touch with loved ones, regardless of geographical distance. Social networking sites also provide a platform for individuals to express themselves, share their thoughts and ideas, and engage in meaningful conversations.Another advantage of social networking sites is the easy access to information. Through these sites, users can stay updated on current events, follow their favorite celebrities or organizations, and discover new trends. Social networking sites have become a source of news and information, allowing individuals to be informed and engaged.However, there are also disadvantages associated with social networking sites. One of the main concerns is privacy. Users often share personal information on these sites, which can be accessed by strangers or even used for malicious purposes. It is important for individuals to be cautious about the information they choose to share and to adjust their privacy settings accordingly.Another disadvantage is the potential for addiction. Social networking sites can be addictive, with users spending excessive amounts of time scrolling through feeds, liking posts, and seeking validation. This addiction can lead to a loss of productivity and a neglect of real-life relationships. It is important for individuals to set boundaries and use social networking sites in moderation.In conclusion, social networking sites have changed the way we communicate and share information. They offer advantages such as convenient communication and easy access to information. However, they also have disadvantages like privacy concerns and addiction. It is essential for individuals to use social networking sites responsibly and strike a balance between online and offline interactions.。

Here are three stories about their funny and disgusting behavior.1. One lunchtime, I was waiting on a man who was dining alone. He looked like a typical businessman: (1) he was wearing smart clothes and he had a cell phone and a newspaper with him. He talked on his phone for most of the meal. When I brought his dessert, he told me that he had to leave the restaurant for a few minutes. He left his phone on the table.Well, after about ten minutes, he still hadn't come back to the table. I went over to the table and realized that the mobile phone was actually a toy. (2) The man never came back to pay his bill.2. I work as a server in a fast-food restaurant. It's a drive-through restaurant:(3) customers drive up to the window and speak into the intercom. "May I take yourorder?" I said into the intercom as usual. A voice replied, "Hamburger, cheeseburger, double cheeseburger, small and large roast beef sandwich, chicken sandwich, regular fries, large fries, apple pie, chocolate shake, strawberry shake, Coke, diet Coke, 7UP and orange juice." The staff prepared the large order and filled several bags. When the customer got the food, she was shocked. "But that wasn't my order," she said. "(4) I was reading the menu to my little girl."3. Our restaurant has tables outside, on the street. People often stop for a coffee or a glass of wine while they are out for a walk. One day a woman came along with a big dog. She tied her dog to the table, sat down and ordered a glass of white wine.Everything was fine for a few minutes — then a man rode by on a moped. The dog chased the moped, pulling the table behind it, and of course the woman's wine fell to the ground. So we cleaned everything up, and brought the customer another glass of wine. Later we gave her the bill for her drinks. She refused to pay for the second glass of wine because"(5) itwasn't(it wasn't her fault)" that she couldn't drink the first one!。

God said, "(1) You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves, and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of sixty years."The cow said, "(2) That's a kind of tough life you want me to live for sixty years. Let me have twenty years and I'll give back the other forty."And God agreed.On the second day, God created the dog. God said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and (3) bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years."The dog said, "That's too long to be barking. Give me ten years and I'll give back the other ten."So God agreed.On the third day God created the monkey. God said, "Entertain people, do monkey tricks, and make them laugh. I'll give you a twenty-year life span."The monkey said, "How boring! Monkey tricks for twenty years? I don't think so. Dog gave you back ten, so that's what I'll do too, okay?"And God agreed again.On the fourth day God created man. God said, "(4) Eat,sleep,play.Do nothing,just enjoy,enjoy(Eat, sleep, play. Do nothing, just enjoy, enjoy). I'll give you twenty years."Man said, "What? Only twenty years? No way! Tell you what, I'll take my twenty, and the forty cow gave back, and the ten dog gave back, and the ten monkey gave back. That makes eighty, okay?""Okay," said God.

Then make a presentation to the class. Your presentation should include:1. Stating your opinion;2. Giving reasons to support your opinion;3. Summarizing your idea.Your answer:Reference answer: When we talk about what can contribute to a person's success, many words, such as perseverance, creativity, luck, and so on, will appear in our minds. Some people argue that luck has nothing to do with a person's success and attribute a person's success to many other factors. In my opinion, however, luck sometimes plays an indispensable role in one's success.Luck is not something that we can control, but being lucky really helps in one's success. Personally I think it is better to be lucky than to be rich. If you are poor but lucky, you might be rich someday. If you are rich but unlucky, you are in trouble.Though persistence and some other factors contribute to one's success, luck will help one to be successful more quickly. For example, the famous inventor Edison, who invented the electric bulb in the 19th century. Throughout his invention process, we can see what an important role persistence and other factors played, but at the same time we must admit luck also played a part. If it had not occurred to Edison to use metal in his experiment, the light might not have appeared until the next century.In conclusion, though success mainly depends on hard work, perseverance, creativity, and some other things, luck will help a person to succeed to some extent.B. Story dictationListen to a story and fill in the missing words. The story will be read three times.

After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of care, Jerry was released from the hospital with parts of the bullets still in his body.I saw Jerry about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "Don't worry. I'm fine. Do you want to see my scars?" (1)(I refused to see his wounds), but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the robbery took place. Jerry replied, "As I lay on the floor, (2)(I remembered that I had two choices): I could choose to live or I could choose to die. I chose to live.""Weren't you scared?" I asked. Jerry continued, "The doctors were great. (3) (They kept telling me I was going to be fine). But when they wheeled me into the operation room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read 'he's a dead man'. I knew I needed to take action." "What did you do?" I asked. "Well, there was a nurse shouting questions at me," said Jerry. "(4)(She asked if I was allergic to anything). 'Yes,' I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and shouted, 'Bullets!' Over their laughter, I told them, 'I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead.'"Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude.I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully. (5)(Attitude, after all, changes everything).。

Build another Ark and save two of every living thing along with a few good humans. You have six months to build the Ark before I will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights."Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah weeping in his yard — but no Ark."Noah!" He asked, "(2)(I'm about to start the rain)! Where is the Ark?""Forgive me, Lord," begged Noah, "but things have changed. I have come across many difficulties.My neighbors claimed that I had (3)(no permission to build the Ark), even in my garden.We had to go to the Secretary of State for a decision.Then the Department of Transport asked how much it would cost for the Ark's move to the sea. I told them that the sea would be coming to us, but they would hear nothing of it.(4)(Getting the wood was another problem). I was forbidden to cut down any trees.When I started gathering the animals, people argued that it was cruel to put so many animals in such a small space.Then the government said that I couldn't build the Ark until they'd conducted an environmental impact study on the possible flood.I'm still having another problem about whom to hire for my building team. The trade unions say I can't use my sons. They insist I have to hire only union workers with Ark-building experience.To make matters worse, the customs house claims (5)(I'm trying to leave the country illegally) with endangered species. So, forgive me, Lord, but it seems impossible for me to finish this Ark."Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine, and a rainbow appeared across the sky. "I'm not going to end the world. Your government beat me to it!" said the Lord.(注:文档可能无法思考全面,请浏览后下载,供参考。
