1.Even from the title of the text we can see that it is about Martin Luther King, the most
important leader of the civil rights movement in the United States.
2.The numbers are mainly dates and some statistics.
3.Altogether, there are four full quotes in the text: one from Thoreau, an American writer; one
from Gunnar Jahn of the Norwegian Nobel Committee; and two from Martin Luther King himself.
4.The title of the text indicates that the whole piece is going to be informational. The language
of the first paragraph testifies this. It has no technical terms. Frequently seen in the text are dates, which are associated with the activities of Martin Luther King. The language is very formal as it has rather long sentences. This also points to the fact that the writer of the text intends to inform readers of the most famous civil rights movement leader—Martin Luther King.

1.The title is actually a question. By using a question as a title, the writer tries to attract the
readers\' attention. Obviously, it\'s about the possibility or legality of human cloning. The writer will give us a thorough analysis as to who might take advantage of human cloning.
2.The language is formal and serious. Besides, it is emotional. The evidence for this is the
repeated employment of rhetorical questions
3.Altogether, there are seven questions, including the one in the title. Of the seven, four are
rhetorical questions. They appear respectively at the end of Paragraph 2, Paragraph 3, Paragraph 4, and at the beginning of Paragraph 6.
4.Rhetorical questions are mainly intended to stir up the readers\' emotions, to put them off
guard, making them ready to accept the writer\'s opinion. Rhetorically, this is called emotional appeal. By using rhetorical questions four times, the writer of this text is appealing to the readers to accept the idea \"Don\'t just say no to human cloning\". With all the above in view, we can see that the text is persuasive.

Thirdly, there are still some students who learn without a clear goal. They take courses, finish homework, enjoy life on campus, but don’t want to 10) anything new or challenging. They have no idea what they will be doing after college. And they may end up with nothing in their lives. Parents and teenagers have different or even opposite things to worry about. For example, while a mother might have a hard time understanding why her teenagers' room is always a(n) 1) of dirty stuff, the teenagers are more worried about their next exams and may think it is 2) for their mother to insist on keeping a clean room.

Covering an area of 28.78 square kilometers, Shanghai Free Trade Zone is the first of its kind in China’s mainland, and is regarded as a “testing ground” for a number of economic ref orms. The establishment of the free trade zone is a significant measure taken to actively promote the opening-up strategy under the new global economic and trade situation. It undertakes a major task to explore new ways and accumulate new experience for the deepening of reform and opening up in an all-round way. As a pilot project, Shanghai Free Trade Zone will become a “touchstone” for Chinese economy. It will play an active role in deepening reforms and boosting economic vigor.
unit1 When I think of people in this world who have really made a difference, I think of my parents. They were truly saints among ordinary people. I was one of the ten children my parents adopted. They rescue (挽救)each of us from a life of poverty and loneliness. They were hardly able to restrain（克制）themselves from bringing home more children to care for. If they had had the resources （资源）they certainly would have. Most people do not realize how much they appreciated（感激）someone until they pass away. My sisters and brothers and I did not want this to happen before we uttered（说）the words "Thank you" to our parents.

Every Friday night, Mom and Dad have had the ham dinner special at the same restaurant for the last twenty years. That is where we waited without their knowing. When we first caught a glimpse （瞥一眼）of them coming across the street, we all hid underneath(在…之下） a big table. When they entered, we leapt out and shouted, "Thank you, Mom and Dad." My brother Tom presented（提供）them with a card and we all hugged. My Dad pretended that he had known we were under the table

新视野第三册答案 Unit 1 Section A. The Expensive Fantasy of Lord Williams 《读写教程III》:Ex. II, p. 9 1. Because this is a title bought with stolen money. The guy‘s real name is Anthony Williams. 2. It‘s small, with a population of only 320. 3. No. He looks like a Scottish noble, soft-spoken and wealthy. 4.

He stole more than eight million pounds over eight years and poured about five million pounds into the village. 6. Most of the stolen money was supposed to be used to pay spies and conduct secret activities against the Irish Republican Army. 7.

But most of all, he sunk his dishonest gains into the village, buying multiple cottages, a pub and a run-down hotel and turning them into very good-looking places. 8. His bank deposits were so large that they were noticed by the bank‘s management. The bank then notified the police, who discovered that the criminal was one of their own. 9.

Never, ever give up! 1 As a young boy, Britain's great Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill, attended a public school called Harrow. He was not a good student, and had he not been from a famous family, he probably would have been removed from the school for deviating from the rules. Thankfully, he did finish at Harrow and his errors there did not preclude him from going on to the university. He eventually had a premier army career whereby he was later elected prime minister. He achieved fame for his wit, wisdom, civic duty, and abundant courage in his refusal to surrender during the miserable dark days of World War II. His amazing determination helped motivate his entire nation and was an inspiration worldwide. 英国首相温斯顿·丘吉尔小时候就读于一所名为哈罗的公立学校。他不是一个好学生，如果他不是来自一个有名的家庭，他可能会因为背离校规而被开除出学校。谢天谢地，他在哈罗大学毕业了，他的错误并没有妨碍他继续上大学。他最终有了一个陆军总理的职业生涯，后来他被选为首相。他以机智、智慧、公民责任和在二战黑暗的日子里拒绝投降的勇气而出名。他惊人的决心有助于激励他的整个国家，也是全世界的灵感来源。 2 Toward the end of his period as prime minister, he was invited to address the patriotic young boys at his old school, Harrow. The headmaster said, "Young gentlemen, the greatest speaker of our time, will be here in a few days to address you, and you should obey whatever sound advice he may give you." The great day arrived. Sir Winston stood up, all five feet, five inches and 107 kilos of him, and gave this short, clear-cut speech: "Young men, never give up. Never give up! Never give up! Never, never, never, never!" 在他担任总理的时期即将结束之际，他被邀请在他的旧学校哈罗向爱国青年发表演讲。校长说：“年轻的先生们，我们这个时代最伟大的演讲者，几天后将到这里向你们讲话，你们应该听从他给你们的任何合理建议。”伟大的一天到来了。温斯顿爵士站了起来，他身高五英尺五英寸，体重107公斤，简短而清晰地说：“年轻人，永不放弃。永不放弃！永不放弃！从不，从不，从不，从不！” 3 Personal history, educational opportunity, individual dilemmas —none of these can inhibit a strong spirit committed to success. No task is too hard. No amount of preparation is too long or too difficult. Take the example of two of the most scholarly scientists of our age, Albert Einstein and Thomas Edison. Both faced immense obstacles and extreme criticism. Both were called "slow to learn" and written off as idiots by their teachers. Thomas Edison ran away from school because his teacher whipped him repeatedly for asking too many questions. Einstein didn't speak fluently until he was almost nine years old and was such a poor student that some thought he was unable to learn. Yet both boys' parents believed in them. They worked intensely each day with their sons, and the boys learned to never bypass the long hours of hard work that they needed to succeed. In the end, both Einstein and Edison overcame their childhood persecution and went on to achieve magnificent discoveries that benefit the entire world today. 个人历史、教育机会、个人困境——这些都不能抑制致力于成功的坚强精神。没有任务太难。准备的时间不要太长或太难。以我们这个时代最有学术价值的两位科学家为例，阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦和托马斯·爱迪生。双方都面临巨大的障碍和极端的批评。两人都被老师称为“学习慢”，并被他们的老师当作白痴注销。托马斯·爱迪生逃学是因为他的老师因为问太多问题而不断鞭打他。爱因斯坦直到九岁时才说得流利，他是一个很穷的学生，有些人认为他无法学习。然而，两个男孩的父母都相信他们。他们每天都和儿子们一起努力工作，孩子们学会了永远不要绕开他们要成功所需的长时间辛勤工作。最后，爱因斯坦和爱迪生都克服了童年时代的迫害，继续取得了有利于当今世界的伟大发现。
