it is very difficult to climb without training。7(1)
即使是那些從事市場研究工作的成年人也難很想象公關部的人每天都在做些什么。一名普通的系統(tǒng)分析師肯定不知道空間推銷員在店里都干些什么,就好像空間推銷員對分析系統(tǒng)的工具也一竅不通一樣。(2)不管怎么說,這就是那耳熟能詳?shù)奶自?。可是,讓我們有這種論調的正是緣自我們對新奇事物的過度迷戀,對深層次歷史模式的無知,以及我們的狂妄自大。為了證明相比于先輩們的優(yōu)越性,我們夸耀說自己生活在一個前所未有的變革期。但是,有一個很好的例子可以用來證明,實際上我們并沒有生活在多么有趣的時代。
8(1)We couldn’t make of their proposal at all, because it was no easy job for us to come to grips with their perspective.It was a safe bet that we were as much baffled about their way of thinking as they were about ours.I think we need to arrange a meeting to clear up misunderstandings and to remove communication barriers.(2)From a biography written by one of his former colleagues who had worked with him for more than two decades, it is not difficult to conclude that what he represented was nothing if not the elite class of the country in the wake of World War II, who were rather conservative in terms of religious and political views.Unit 5 Active reading(1)Dealing with unfamiliar words 4 Match the words in the box with their definitions.答案:donation intense sophisticated progressive competent recruit intimidate encounter 5Complete the paragraph with the correct form of the words in Activity 4 答案:progressive intense donations recruits competent intimidated encounter sophisticated.6Replace the underlined words with the correct form of the words in the box.You may need to make other changes.答案:agreeable laughable corruption shivering doubtful shrugged impatient applause 7Answer the question about the words and expressions.答案:a a b a b a a b a.Active reading(2)Dealing with unfamiliar words 5 Match the words in the box with their definitions.答案:loyalty enable competitor contract management investment 6 Complete the paragraph with the correct form of the words in

reputation, not because of its food, which had often been maligned, or its jazz orchestra, which had a guest slot for a well-known movie director who played trumpet, but because of the stellar quality of its sophisticated guests: politicians, diplomats, movie actors, hall-of-fame athletes, journalists, writers, rock stars and Nobel Prize winners – in short, anyone who was anyone in this city of power brokers.答案:喬希打了個冷戰(zhàn),他打開手里的紙條核對了一下地址。之前他沒來過喬安妮餐廳,但對于它的鼎鼎大名卻早有耳聞,倒不是因為這里的飯菜有多美味,其實這里的菜品屢遭惡評,也不是因為這里的爵士管弦樂隊有一位知名電影導演客串吹小號,而是因為這里匯集了有頭有臉的賓客,可以說是星光璀璨,他們中有政客、外交家、電影明星、載入名人堂的體育明星、記者、作家、搖滾明星、諾貝爾獎得主等等——總之,這里的每一位客人都是這座權力之城里的一個人物。2 The Swedes and the Saudis in this true story have different concepts of the role of personal relationships in business.For the Swedes, business is done with a company;for the Saudis, with a person whom one has learned to know and trust.As long as one does not know another person well enough it is convenient to have present an intermediary or go-between, someone who knows and is trusted by both parties.At the root of the difference between these cultures is a fundamental issue in human societies: the role of the individual versus the role of the group.答案:在這個真實的故事里,瑞典人和沙特人對人際關系在商業(yè)中的作用有著不同的理解。對瑞典人來說,他們是在和一個公司做生意;但對沙特人來說,他們是在和一個他們了解并且信任的人做生意。只要他們對某個人還不夠了解,就會讓一位雙方都認識并信任的中間人或介紹人在場,這樣做會比較方便。這兩種文化的差異源于人類社會的一個根本問題:即個人角色與集體角色的問題。7Translate the paragraphs into English.這位年輕人是個偵探小說迷,在看了福爾摩斯探案故事之后,他自以為完全掌握了偵探技巧,于是就開始調查一起搶劫案。經(jīng)過幾個星期的周密調查,他倒是追查到了三名疑犯,只可惜案發(fā)時這三個人都身在國外。(know sth inside out;track down)
答案:This young man liked reading detective stories.After finished reading Holmes’ stories, he thought he had known the detective’s skills inside out and started to investigate a case of robbery.After a few weeks of close investigation, he tracked down three suspects, who turned out to be abroad when
the robbery took place.在本書中我們確實體會到了兩種文化之間的差異。不過作者沒有詳細敘述這些差異,而是仔細討論了兩種文化的相同點,其中說得最多的是為什么這兩種文化都如此強調工作的熱忱。(dwell on;of which;loyalty)
答案:In this book, we do find some differences between the two cultures.But instead of dwelling on the differences, the author presents lengthy discussions on things they have in common, of which their loyalty to work are most thoroughly touched upon.Unit 6 Active reading(1)Dealing with unfamiliar words 5 Match the words in the box with their definitions.答案:extinguish toll nightmare tragedy utmost heroism chaotic 6Complete the paragraph with the correct form of the words in Activity 5 答案:chaotic extinguish tragedy nightmare toll utmost heroism

our lives等詞語應該調整語序。)答案:我想起我們消防員平??偦ハ啻蛉ふf:“在大火中見吧?!被蛘呤恰拔覀兛隙〞诖蠡鹬信雒娴??!蔽也恢肋@種說法是怎么來的,或者我自己是從什么時候開始說起這種話來的,但這就是我們的暗語。意思是不管這場火有多大,以后在別處還會有比這更大的。我們能安然無恙地度過這場火,也會安然無恙地度過下一場火。遇到一場大火時,我總是這么說,也總聽別人這么說,可現(xiàn)在,我呆在這兒,想著自己再也不會說這樣的話了,也不會再聽到別人這么說了,因為再也不會有比這更大的火了。這會是我們大家一輩子都在說的那場大火,如果以前——就在這一個個令人膽戰(zhàn)心驚的瞬間之前——我沒有認識到這一點的話,現(xiàn)在這渾厚的、不祥的響聲印證了這一點。Named as the first chairman of the UN Human Rights Commission, Roosevelt oversaw the two-year process of drafting and securing passage of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.Additionally, her clashes with representatives of the Soviet Union led one Republican to lean forward in his chair and state – he wouldn’t allow his name to be used for fear of being labeled as a Democratic supporter – “Now, if you want to know what I think about Mrs Roosevelt, she is tuh-riffic!Mrs Roosevelt is unique in her capacity to create an understanding
of our position in the minds of the delegates of other countries.Her performance is so superlative that it is rather unexpected to be asked to evaluate her in ordinary terms.”
答案:作為聯(lián)合國人權委員會的首任主席,羅斯福監(jiān)督了《世界人權宣言》歷時兩年的起草和通過的全過程。此外, 她和蘇聯(lián)代表的交鋒讓一位共和黨人從椅子上朝前探過身來,說出了下面一番話——因為怕被當成是民主黨的支持者,他不愿意透露自己的姓名——“如果你想知道我對羅斯福夫人的看法,那我會說她真是了不起!羅斯福夫人有一種獨特的能力,能讓其他國家的代表清楚地了解我們的立場。要用平常的語言來評價她高超的外交手腕,一時間還真不知道該怎么說?!?/p>
7Translate the paragraphs into English.人們很不理解為什么他一份工作干了30年,大多數(shù)人到了他這個年紀至少已經(jīng)換了四五份工作了。也許對他來說,為了獲得更高的薪水或是尋求體驗新事物的刺激而換工作毫無意義。在他看來,唯一重要的事是穩(wěn)定。(stick with;point;thrill)
答案:People are quite puzzled about the fact that he has stuck with the same job for 30 years when most people of his age have changed at least four or five jobs.Maybe for him there is no
point in changing jobs for a higher pay or for the thrill of experiencing something new.The only thing that matters, in his point of view, is stability.協(xié)會中的大多數(shù)會員認為應該竭力游說政府,確保這項計劃獲得批準。至關重要的是要把決策者中的一些反對者爭取過來。雖然這會很難,但是他們下定決心要作最大的努力。(lobby;win over;adj.+ though it + be;utmost)
答案:Most members of the association believe that they need to lobby as hard as possible to make sure that the plan will be approved by the government.It’s essential to win over some of the naysayer among the policy makers.Tough though it will be, they have made up their mind to make utmost efforts.Unit7: Active reading(1)2.ababdaba 3.misfortune neutral mathematical vulnerable subsequent frequency 4.misfortunes neutral frequency mathematical vulnerable subsequent 5.route overlapped adjacent sacked cluster duration 6.abbbbbbba 7.bedca Active reading(2)3.dcdc

it comes to his competence in running the government, the media have long lost their trust, if only he could do well in his subsequent term.2.Keep remembering that do not humiliate your child because they don’t gain good grades, as their memory of the humiliation will haunt them for a long time, turn them off from learning at an early age and prevent them from gaining positive attitudes towards life.The development of children can be sustained only when parents identify the strengths in their children and encourage them from time to time.Unit8 Active reading(1):5.dump lounge beloved sneak fury gossip 6.bumped into sincere vacuum stick around advisable filled up with 7.aabab aaab Active reading(2): 3.dabcbd 4.humble justify undergo feast calendar youngster charm

束鮮花,一份小禮物,可能是一瓶香水或者一雙褲襪,妻子會 高興得 大叫起來,激動好一會兒,直到孩子們怒氣沖沖地跑過來,小臉漲得通紅,鬧著要媽媽給他 們做一 頓像樣的早餐
2.不管是好是壞, 世界在過去二十多年間所經(jīng)歷的變化可能比過去兩百年間所經(jīng)歷的還要多。為了讓 彼此間聯(lián)系得更緊密,營造出一個真正的地球村,我們消耗了更多的資源,燒掉了更多的能 源,造 成了更多的污染,滅殺了更多的動植物。過去,我們一直把電視看作是連接全世界的終極手 段,直 到我們了解了互聯(lián)網(wǎng),才發(fā)現(xiàn)事實并非如此。所有這些變化都讓我們用另外一種眼光來看待外面的世界以及我們自己的家園。在這個全球 市場中,得到任何東西都是要付出代價的。如果我們想擁有西方世界那著名的眩目而舒適的生活,我 們也必 須接受西方文化中的一些異常事物。當然,這并不是說節(jié)日對于西方人來說有著不同的意義。
1.When he divorced his wife, he knew that he would never hear the end of it from his friends, because they all believed the rumor that he had dumped her for a younger woman.Whenever he bumped into a friend in the street, they would reprimand him severely for betraying his wife.He realized with his own experience that if a rumor stuck around long enough, people would gradually take it as true.。
2.After undergoing so many misfortunes, he vents all his anger, discontent and despair on people around him, be they families
or colleagues.Instead of shutting our eyes and ears to his anomalies, we should offer him more cares and love.We believe he is bound to recollect himself and go through the tough time。

一人了,現(xiàn)在卻要等到天快亮時才會有空座,小伙子們熬夜熬出了眼袋,他們臉色蒼白,睡眼惺忪,卻很自豪,好像這些都是表彰他們勤奮好學的獎章。
(2)明天行嗎?明天只是個謊言;根本就沒有什么明天,只有一張我們常常無法兌現(xiàn)的期票。明天甚至壓根兒就不存在。你早上醒來時又是另一個今天了,同樣的規(guī)則又可以全部套用。明天只是現(xiàn)在的另一種說法,是一塊空地,除非我們開始在那里播種,否則它永遠都是空地。你的時間會流逝(時間就在我們說話的當下滴答滴答地走著,每分鐘順時針走60秒,如果你不能很好地利用它,它就會走得更快些),而你沒有取得任何成就來證明它的存在,唯獨留下遺憾,留下一面后視鏡,上面寫滿了“本可以做”“本應該做”“本來會做”的事情。
7.(1)Students differ about whether they should have their future mapped out when they are still at university.Some think they should have a definite goal and detailed plan, so as to brace themselves for any challenges, whereas some others think they don’t have to think much about the future , because future is full of uncertainties.(2)After a very careful check-up ,the scientist was told he had got a fatal disease.Although he knew that his life was ticking away ,instead of complaining about the fate ,the scientist decided to make the best of the remaining days ,and speed up the research project he and his colleagues initiated ,and have a shot at completing it ahead of schedule.Unit2 Active reading 5.definite perpetual whirl blaze giggle prompt tumble 6.prompted definite whirl perpetual blazing giggling tumbled 7.blinked barren tag torture resemblance napkin 8.a a b a

嘯而過。他長得太像我的舅舅弗蘭克了,舅舅那會正跟媽媽和我住在一起。當超人的斗篷神奇地旋轉時,我好像能聽見上百只海鷗的振翅聲,上千架飛機的馬達轟鳴聲。
(2)相反,根據(jù)海倫·莫頓的研究,太平洋島國湯加的兒童經(jīng)常挨父母和哥哥姐姐的打。人們認為兒童和成年人相比更像瘋子,因為他們缺乏被大家看中的社會能力(湯加人稱之為poto)。小孩子經(jīng)常因為笨手笨腳而挨罵,他們連摔跤都會被嘲笑﹑呵斥,甚至被打。人們認為兒童很頑皮,都是因為淘氣他們才哭鬧,或者要東西吃。在大人看來,三至五歲的兒童尤其任性,因此他們打這個年齡段的孩子也打得最狠。孩子們相信,只有靠訓導和體罰才能使孩子獲得社會能力,所以他們用一種在外人看來非常嚴厲的方式對待孩子。
5(1)At the railway station , an old man told me his experience in the Liberation War , the fighting stories of which were of great fascination to me.Then he got up on the train and it roared past me.But the stories were so real and definite that I greatly marveled at the courageous deeds of those war heroes.(2)Effective environmental policy might bring about a good environment , as well as reducing energy consumption.Looking back on the recent development of this region , we find , to our pleasant surprise , that little exception has been taken to the environmental policy of the local government , and the policy has raised the environmental awareness of the local residents and prompted them to save energy as possible as they

題吧,要明確悲傷的性質。是悲觀厭世的悲傷,還是無可奈何的悲傷?是時運不濟的悲傷,還是強顏歡笑的悲傷?
(2)我們對《戴珍珠耳環(huán)的少女》的了解比對維梅爾的其他作品都少。實際上,這種無法解釋的背景資料的缺失甚至會使得該畫更受歡迎。正因為如此神秘,這幅畫先是成了一部小說的主題,而后又被一部電影所采納。它們都試圖揭開有關這幅畫的一些謎題,其中一個是:女孩那雙睜得大大的眼睛,以及那一絲神秘的微笑,到底是天真還是誘惑?像小說或電影這類媒介更適合作出回答。
7(1)As the wedding ceremony was approaching, Susan had become quite anxious.She could not pin down what exactly was troubling her.After a long talk with her close friend Kate, she realized that, although she was 28 years old, she was not emotionally mature enough to be ready for marriage and she was not sure whether the marriage would guarantee her a happy family life.(2)
She knew that Chinese students had a way of shying away from revealing their feelings or opinions, due not merely to their lack of confidence in spoken English, but to their belief in the virtue of modesty.So she specially conceived a couple of simple topics and encouraged them in the discussion, in order that they might become more confident and closer with each other.Unit 4

里的飯菜有多美味,其實這里的菜品屢遭惡評,也不是因為這里的爵士管弦樂隊有一位知名電影導演客串吹小號,而是因為這里匯集了有頭有臉的賓客,可以說是星光璀璨,他們中有政客、外交家、電影明星、載入名人堂的體育明星、記者、作家、搖滾明星、諾貝爾獎得主等等——總之,這里的每一位客人都是這座權力之城里的一個人物。2 The Swedes and the Saudis in this true story have different concepts of the role of personal relationships in business.For the Swedes, business is done with a company;for the Saudis, with a person whom one has learned to know and trust.As long as one does not know another person well enough it is convenient to have present an intermediary or go-between, someone who knows and is trusted by both parties.At the root of the difference between these cultures is a fundamental issue in human societies: the role of the individual versus the role of the group.答案:在這個真實的故事里,瑞典人和沙特人對人際關系在商業(yè)中的作用有著不同的理解。對瑞典人來說,他們是在和一個公司做生意;但對沙特人來說,他們是在和一個他們了解并且信任的人做生意。只要他們對某個人還不夠了解,就會讓一位雙方都認識并信任的中間人或介紹人在場,這樣做會比較方便。這兩種文化的差異源于人類社會的一個根本問題:即個人角色與集體角色的問題。7Translate the paragraphs into English.這位年輕人是個偵探小說迷,在看了福爾摩斯探案故事之后,他自以為完全掌握了偵探技巧,于是就開始調查一起搶劫案。經(jīng)過幾個星期的周密調查,他倒是追查到了三名疑犯,只可惜案發(fā)時這三個人都身在國外。(know sth inside out;track down)
答案:This young man liked reading detective stories.After finished reading Holmes’ stories, he thought he had known the detective’s skills inside out and started to investigate a case of robbery.After a few weeks of close investigation, he tracked down three suspects, who turned out to be abroad when the robbery took place.在本書中我們確實體會到了兩種文化之間的差異。不過作者沒有詳細敘述這些差異,而是仔細討論了兩種文化的相同點,其中說得最多的是為什么這兩種文化都如此強調工作的熱忱。(dwell on;of which;loyalty)
答案:In this book, we do find some differences between the two cultures.But instead of dwelling on the differences, the author presents lengthy discussions on things they have in common, of which their loyalty to work are most thoroughly touched upon.Unit 6 Active reading(1)

hadn’t known this before – just before these chilling moments – this sick, black noise now confirmed it.(? 這段話由許多短句構成,要注意短句間語氣的連接。像at big fires,all
our lives等詞語應該調整語序。)答案:我想起我們消防員平??偦ハ啻蛉ふf:“在大火中見吧?!被蛘呤恰拔覀兛隙〞诖蠡鹬信雒娴摹!蔽也恢肋@種說法是怎么來的,或者我自己是從什么時候開始說起這種話來的,但這就是我們的暗語。意思是不管這場火有多大,以后在別處還會有比這更大的。我們能安然無恙地度過這場火,也會安然無恙地度過下一場火。遇到一場大火時,我總是這么說,也總聽別人這么說,可現(xiàn)在,我呆在這兒,想著自己再也不會說這樣的話了,也不會再聽到別人這么說了,因為再也不會有比這更大的火了。這會是我們大家一輩子都在說的那場大火,如果以前——就在這一個個令人膽戰(zhàn)心驚的瞬間之前——我沒有認識到這一點的話,現(xiàn)在這渾厚的、不祥的響聲印證了這一點。Named as the first chairman of the UN Human Rights Commission, Roosevelt oversaw the two-year process of drafting and securing passage of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.Additionally, her clashes with representatives of the Soviet Union led one Republican to lean forward in his chair and state – he wouldn’t allow his name to be used for fear of being labeled as a Democratic supporter – ―Now, if you want to
know what I think about Mrs Roosevelt, she is tuh-riffic!Mrs Roosevelt is unique in her capacity to create an understanding of our position in the minds of the delegates of other countries.Her performance is so superlative that it is rather unexpected to be asked to evaluate her in ordinary terms.‖
答案:作為聯(lián)合國人權委員會的首任主席,羅斯福監(jiān)督了《世界人權宣言》歷時兩年的起草和通過的全過程。此外, 她和蘇聯(lián)代表的交鋒讓一位共和黨人從椅子上朝前探過身來,說出了下面一番話——因為怕被當成是民主黨的支持者,他不愿意透露自己的姓名——“如果你想知道我對羅斯福夫人的看法,那我會說她真是了不起!羅斯福夫人有一種獨特的能力,能讓其他國家的代表清楚地了解我們的立場。要用平常的語言來評價她高超的外交手腕,一時間還真不知道該怎么說。”
7Translate the paragraphs into English.人們很不理解為什么他一份工作干了30年,大多數(shù)人到了他這個年紀至少已經(jīng)換了四五份工作了。也許對他來說,為了獲得更高的薪水或是尋求體驗新事物的刺激而換工作毫無意義。在他看來,唯一重要的事是穩(wěn)定。(stick with;point;thrill)
答案:People are quite puzzled about the fact that he has stuck with the
same job for 30 years when most people of his age have changed at least four or five jobs.Maybe for him there is no point in changing jobs for a higher pay or for the thrill of experiencing something new.The only thing that matters, in his point of view, is stability.協(xié)會中的大多數(shù)會員認為應該竭力游說政府,確保這項計劃獲得批準。至關重要的是要把決策者中的一些反對者爭取過來。雖然這會很難,但是他們下定決心要作最大的努力。(lobby;win over;adj.+ though it + be;utmost)
答案:Most members of the association believe that they need to lobby as hard as possible to make sure that the plan will be approved by the government.It’s essential to win over some of the naysayer among the policy makers.Tough though it will be, they have made up their mind to make utmost efforts.Unit7: Active reading(1)2.ababdaba 3.misfortune neutral mathematical vulnerable subsequent frequency

翻譯 1.司機不趕時間的時候碰到的紅燈其實和趕時間的時候一樣多;只是如果時間不緊急,紅燈帶來的不便要小得多。認為紅燈出現(xiàn)的次數(shù)比綠燈多其實是一種錯覺。產(chǎn)生這 種錯覺的原因很簡單,因為司機有更多的時間去想紅燈,而綠燈的時候,車子幾秒 鐘之內就疾馳而過了——這其實和在暢通的公路上開車沒有任何區(qū)別——而紅燈卻迫使司機改變行為,一小會兒的時間里要強迫自己努力一下,承受點壓力,還要失去 一兩分鐘的自由。所以紅燈會深深地印在司機的腦海里,而綠燈轉瞬間就被拋到腦 后了.2.人人都能學會唱歌嗎?在撰寫我最新出版的《唱著歌的尼安德特人》一書時,這個 問題就一直縈繞在我的心頭。我做的研究讓我相信音樂才能是深深植根于人類基因 中的,從進化史的角度來說,它比人類的口頭語言都要古老得多。可是我本人一唱 起歌來不是跑調,就是跟不上節(jié)奏。朋友們和學術同僚們都說,那都是因為我小時 候對音樂失去了興趣,只要上幾節(jié)音樂課,我一定能放聲歌唱。也許他們是對的。記得小時候,音樂老師們讓我在全班同學面前獨―唱‖,讓我覺得很丟臉。所以后 來一有機會,我就躲開音樂,35 年來從來沒有參加過任何音樂活動。說不定學一學 我也能唱得不錯。1.The media doubt the claim that the two consecutive tragedies were independent of each other, and are dissatisfied with the fact that the President was not responsive immediately.When it comes to his competence in running the government, the media have long
lost their trust, if only he could do well in his subsequent term.2.Keep remembering that do not humiliate your child because they don’t gain good grades, as their memory of the humiliation will haunt them for a long time, turn them off from learning at an early age and prevent them from gaining positive attitudes towards life.The development of children can be sustained only when parents identify the strengths in their children and encourage them from time to time.Unit8 Active reading(1):5.dump lounge beloved sneak fury gossip 6.bumped into sincere vacuum stick around advisable

2.不管是好是壞, 世界在過去二十多年間所經(jīng)歷的變化可能比過去兩百年間所經(jīng)歷的還要多。為了讓 彼此間聯(lián)系得更緊密,營造出一個真正的地球村,我們消耗了更多的資源,燒掉了更多的能 源,造 成了更多的污染,滅殺了更多的動植物。過去,我們一直把電視看作是連接全世界的終極手 段,直 到我們了解了互聯(lián)網(wǎng),才發(fā)現(xiàn)事實并非如此。所有這些變化都讓我們用另外一種眼光來看待外面的世界以及我們自己的家園。在這個全球 市場中,得到任何東西都是要付出代價的。如果我們想擁有西方世界那著名的眩目而舒適的生活,我 們也必 須接受西方文化中的一些異常事物。當然,這并不是說節(jié)日對于西方人來說有著不同的意義。
1.When he divorced his wife, he knew that he would never hear the end of it from his friends, because they all believed the rumor that he had dumped her for a younger woman.Whenever he bumped into a friend in the street, they would reprimand him severely for betraying his wife.He realized with his own experience that if a rumor stuck around long enough, people would gradually take it as true.。
2.After undergoing so many misfortunes, he vents all his anger, discontent and despair on people around him, be they families or colleagues.Instead of shutting our eyes and ears to his anomalies, we should offer him more cares and love.We believe he is bound

The writer holds that instead of being exciting or full of unprecedented and dazzling changes, modern times are in fact rather dull.Taking globalization and technological innovations for examples, he believes that at a certain stage in the history, there were more sweeping transformations.Generally speaking, for all the Internet or I-pod, the early 21 century is a relatively stable period.5.1 本篇課文是關于一個年輕黑人的故事。他和一位女性參議院在一家餐廳預約吃飯appointment,遭遇到領班headwaiter的冷遇和輕蔑disdain。等議員來后,領班的態(tài)度大變,畢恭畢敬的樣子令人可笑,故事嘲笑了一些人,對不同社會地位的人們采取的不同態(tài)度。The text tells a story about a young black man.He had a dinner appointment with a female Senator, but encountered cold treatment and disdain of a head waiter.When the senator arrived, the attitude of the waiter changed a lot.His humility was laughable.The story laughs at some people who adopt a different attitude to people of different classes.5.2 本篇課文講了一個關于一筆生意合同contract簽訂的故事。故事說明了兩種不同社會的區(qū)別。集體主義collectivist的社會里,集體是個人身份的來源。是個人應對生活艱難的安全保障。他對于集體要要保持終身的忠實。這種依賴關系無論從實際上還是心理上都是必要的。個體主義社會里 一個人要獨立,他的利益高于prevail over集體之上。
By telling a story about signing a business contract, the writer of this text distinguishes two types of societies or families.In collective societies, the group is the source of one’s identity and is a secure protection against the hardships of life.He must be loyal to his group or family.Such loyalty is necessary both practically and mentally.In contrast, in individual society, one must be independent.His interest prevails over that of a group.6.1 本篇課文是關于911大規(guī)模massive恐怖襲擊中一位消防隊員和他的戰(zhàn)友們comrades如何滅extinguish火,并幫助受困trapped的人們疏散evacuate逃生的。他們很多人獻出了自己的生命。他們是真正的英雄。體面decent而又值得信任trustworthty。作者詳談了dwell on自己當時的感受。他的描寫生動,給人留下較深刻的印象。

The text is about why people feel unlucky.What is called bad luck is mostly psychological or coincidental.There are two concepts of badness.One is marginally bad and extremely bad.The other is badness on a spectrum.A particular event may only be a misfortune because of the circumstances around it.A bad thing may leave one a deep impression and a long memory, which gives him a perception of bad luck.Some bad luck is related with probability

NSCE綜合教程3 課后翻譯 unit 1-6
Unit 1
(1)對于是否應該在大學期間詳細規(guī)劃自己的未來,學生們意見不一。有的人認為對未來應該有一個明確的目標和詳細的計劃,為日后可能遇到的挑戰(zhàn)做好充分的準備;有的人則認為不用過多考慮未來,因為未來難以預料。(map out;brace oneself for;uncertainty)
Students differ about whether they should have their future mapped out when they are still at university.Some think they should have a definite goal and detailed plan, so as to brace themselves for any challenges, whereas some others think they don’t have to think much about the future , because future is full of uncertainties.(2)經(jīng)過仔細檢查,這位科學家得知自己患了絕癥。雖然知道自己將不久于人世,他并沒有抱怨命運的不公,而是準備好好利用剩下的日子,爭取加速推進由他和同事們共同發(fā)起的那個研究項目,以提前結項。(tick away;make the best of;have a shot at)
After a very careful check-up ,the scientist was told he had got a fatal disease.Although he knew that his life was ticking away ,instead of complaining about the fate ,the scientist decided to make the best of the remaining days ,and speed up the research project he and his colleagues initiated ,and have a shot at completing it ahead of schedule.Unit 2
(1)在火車站上,有一位老人給我講述了他參加解放戰(zhàn)爭的經(jīng)歷,那些戰(zhàn)斗故事對我有著極大的吸引力。后來他上了車,列車從我身邊隆隆地開走了??赡切┕适氯匀皇悄敲辞逦梢姡瑢τ谟⑿蹅兊膲雅e,我欽佩不已。
At the railway station , an old man told me his experience in the Liberation War , the fighting stories of which were of great fascination to me.Then he got up on the train and it roared past me.But the stories were so real and definite that I greatly marveled at the courageous deeds of those war heroes.(2)行之有效的環(huán)保政策不僅能創(chuàng)造良好的生態(tài)環(huán)境,還能大大降低能源消耗?;仡欉@個地區(qū)近年來的發(fā)展情況,我們驚喜地發(fā)現(xiàn)地區(qū)政府強制實行的環(huán)保政策不但沒有受到任何批評,還促使居民增強了環(huán)保意識,盡其所能節(jié)約能源。
Effective environmental policy might bring about a good environment , as well as reducing energy consumption.Looking back on the recent history of this region , we find , to our pleasant surprise , that not much exception has been taken to the environmental policy of the local government , and the policy has raised the environmental awareness of the local residents and prompted them to save energy as possible as they could.Unit 3
(1)隨著婚禮的臨近,蘇珊變得非常焦慮。她說不清楚是什么讓自己如此煩惱。在同好友凱特長談了一次后,她才意識到,盡管自己已經(jīng)28歲了,但在情感方面還不夠成熟,還沒有為婚姻做好準備,也不知道這樁婚姻是否會給自己帶來美滿的家庭生活。(pin down;guarantee)
As the wedding ceremony was approaching, Susan had become quite anxious.She could not pin down what exactly was troubling her.After a long talk with her close friend Kate, she realized that, although she was 28 years old, she was not emotionally mature enough to be ready for marriage and she was not sure whether the marriage would guarantee her a happy family life.(2)她知道中國學生總是不愿意表達自己的情感和想法,這不僅僅因為他們對自己的英語口語不夠自信,還因為他們相信穩(wěn)重是一種美德。因此她特意設計了一些簡單的話題,鼓勵學生參與討論,讓他們增強自信心,拉近彼此間的距離。(shy away;engage sb in)
She knew that Chinese students had a way of shying away from revealing their feelings or opinions, due not merely to their lack of confidence in spoken English, but to their belief in the virtue of modesty.So she specially conceived a couple of simple topics and engaged them in the discussion, in order that they might become more confident and closer with each other.Unit 4
(1)我們根本就看不懂他們的計劃書,因為他們的觀點不太容易把握。這很可能是因為我們雙方對于另一方的思維方式都感到同樣的困惑。我認為應該安排一次面談,讓大家消除誤會,掃除溝通的障礙。(make of;come to grips with;it’s a safe bet that;as baffled … as)
We couldn’t make of their proposal at all, because it was no easy job for us to come to grips with their perspective.It was a safe bet that we were as much baffled about their way of thinking as they were about ours.I think we need to arrange a meeting to clear up misunderstandings and to remove communication barriers.(2)從與他共事二十多年的一位同事所寫的傳記中不難得出這樣的結論:他所代表的絕對是該國二戰(zhàn)之后的精英階層,他們的宗教和政治方面的觀念較為保守。(nothing if not;in the wake of;in terms of)
From a biography written by one of his former colleagues who had worked with him for more than two decades, it is not difficult to conclude that what he represented was nothing if not the elite class of the country in the wake of World War II, who were rather conservative in terms of religious and political views.Unit 5
(1)這位年輕人是個偵探小說迷,在看了福爾摩斯探案故事之后,他自以為完全掌握了偵探技巧,于是就開始調查一起搶劫案。經(jīng)過幾個星期的周密調查,他倒是追查到了三名疑犯,只可惜案發(fā)時這三個人都身在國外。(know sth.inside out;track down)
This young man liked reading detective stories.After finished reading Holmes’ stories, he thought he had known the detective’s skills inside out and started to investigate a case of robbery.After a few weeks of close investigation, he tracked down three suspects, who turned out to be abroad when the robbery took place.(2)在本書中我們確實體會到了兩種文化之間的差異。不過作者沒有詳細敘述這些差異,而是仔細討論了兩種文化的相同點,其中說得最多的是為什么這兩種文化都如此強調工作的熱忱。(dwell on;of which;loyalty)
