第一篇：大學(xué)英語精讀5課后翻譯

Unit 1

Mastering a large number of words is essential to achieving fluency in a foreign language.An unofficial, but often quoted, figure for the Cambridge First Certificate examiniation suggests that students with a vocabulary of less than 3,500 words are unlikely to be successful in the exam.Current research also suggests that native English speakers who have been educated up to 18 years old or beyond know at least 16,000 English words.And unless you already speak a language like Spanish or German, there are no short-cuts to a large vocabulary in English: you just have to rely on diligence and dedication.Of course you can figure out from the context the meanings of some new words you come across in your reading, but more often than not you have to look them up in a dictionary in order to be clear about their accurate meanings.A practicable way to pick up new words is, perhaps, to read a lot, preferably stories that you find interesting or exciting.It often pays to read the same book over and over again: each time you read it you will learn different new words, and the familiar context helps to fix them in your mind.Unit 2

1.I don’t think it is realistic to turn to him for help.As a matter of fact, he himself is in need of help.2.More and more people are being awakened to the urgent need of combating air pollution.3.There are visible signs that some of the time-honored old traditions and values are no longer cherished by the young people.4.Many of us find the notion of a boundless universe hard to grasp.5.There being so many loopholes in the laws and regulations, it is little wonder that a handful of speculators got rich overnight.6.An unprecedented boom in tourism brought sudden prosperity to the small border town, which was formerly inhabited by only three hundred people.7.In the light of this information, that country already has the capabilities to make nuclear weapons.8.Regardless of repeated warnings from his friends, he staked all his money on high-risk ventures.Unit 3

If you started on some venture and failed, do not despair / lose heart.There is a world of difference between ‘I have failed three times’ and ‘I am a failure.’So long as you do not hold a negative concept of self or identify with failures but try to learn from them, you stand a good chance to succeed in the future.Did it ever occur to you that those who fail repeatedly are often victims of a poor self image?Often their failures are due to internal causes rather than external causes.Numerous cases have borne it out that if they can be induced to change their viewpoint and construct a positive self image, miraculous changes may take place in their performance.Success can come anytime—at thirty, forty or even after a lifetime of apparent failure.Early triumphs may be sweet, but success in later life often tastes even better.Unit 4

1.Somebody says that the best response to unfair criticisms is to forgive and forget.2.For God’s sake, why didn’t you call me?

Scientists are a small group of people who are striving to gain insight

into nature and seek for laws in the superficial disorder.They have a

special ability to think and analyze, and unlimited patience in observing

and collecting date.However , not all scientific discoveries can be

ascribed to abilities and patience;they usually connect closely with

creative imagination.Of course, the leap of imagination is often the

first step leading to discoveries.Moreover , scientists are famous for

their honesty.They put a high premium on honesty, mainly because that

honesty is cardinal to their career.Every theory they put forward has

to be further tested.Every error and lie are sure to be found.So, if

finding some evidence contradiction with their ideas, scientists modify

even abandon their ideas, instead of concealing them.In this way, they

accumulate an immense amount of knowledge, which can help us understand

ourselves and surroundings better.Unit 6

1.The highlight of the circus performance was the panda’s representation.Its clumsy

One day, we received an invitation to my father’s birthday party.Jenny thought my father was reaching out to me for a reconciliation and we should accept the invitation.I was in the midst of abstracting an important case and in the virtual shadow of exams, so I just told her in the simplest possible terms that there would never be a reconciliation.My refusal obviously made Jenny very upset, but being a rational woman she didn’t quarrel with me.She just tried hard to persuade me.But this only filled me with fury, thinking that Jenny was just upsetting me deliberately.I must have gone out of my mind for I did something for which I would never forgive myself—I yelled at Jenny and hurled the phone at her.But the instant I did it I regretted.And when I turned to look at her, she was already gone.I went out and searched everywhere but Jenny was nowhere to be found.I was scared to death, not knowing what to do next.Just as I was about to give up, I caught sight of her sitting in front of our house.I went up to her and said, ‘Jenny, I’m sorry…’ but she cut off my apology and said, ‘Love means not ever having to say you’re sorry.’
