Unit 1-1Catching crabs1 In the fall of our final year, our mood changed. The relaxed atmosphere of the preceding summer semester, the impromptuball games, the boating on the Charles River, the late-night parties had disappeared, and we all started to get our heads down, studying late, and attendance at classes rose steeply again. We all sensed we were coming to the end of our stay here, that we would never get a chance like this again, and we became determined not to waste it. Most important of course were the final exams in April and May in the following year. No one wanted the humiliation of finishing last in class, so the peer group pressure to work hard was strong. Libraries which were once empty after five o'clock in the afternoon were standing room only until the early hours of the morning, and guys wore the bags under their eyes and their pale, sleepy faces with pride, like medals proving their diligence.2 But there was something else. At the back of everyone's mind was what we would do next, when we left university in a few months' time. It wasn't always the high flyers with the top grades who knew what they were going to do. Quite often it was the quieter, less impressive students who had the next stages of their life mapped out. One had landed a job in his brother's advertising firm in Madison Avenue, another had got a script under provisional acceptance in Hollywood. The most ambitious student among us was going to work as a party activist at a local level. We all saw him ending up in the Senate or in Congress one day. But most people were either looking to continue their studies, or to make a living with awhite-collar job in a bank, local government, or anything which would pay them enough to have a comfortable time in their抓螃蟹大学最后一年的秋天,我们的心情变了。

My sisters and brothers and I did notwant this to happen before we uttered() the words "Thank you" toour parents.Although we have all grown up and scattered(散落) about the country, we got back together to thank our parents.

They said that women whoexercise regularly, especially in endurance(耐久) activities, typicallylose iron.In order to prevent this from becoming a problem(了防止成), it is important that those women consume more meat(吃肉) or take supplements(充) to replace (取代) the iron lost.

新编大学英语3课文翻译 Unit 5、6、 8、9第五单元,我是怎样识字的3 你可曾在航海时遇上过有浓雾的时候?你仿佛被困在了触手可及的一片白茫茫中,不见天日。
你乘坐的巨轮,靠测深锤或测深线的指引,举步维艰地靠向海岸,既紧张又焦急不安;而你则心里砰砰直跳,等着有事要发生。
而我在接受教育之前正像那巨轮,所不同的是我连指南针或测深线都没有,更无从知晓离港湾还有多远。
我的心灵在无声地疾呼:“光明!给我光明吧! ”而就在此时此刻,爱的光芒洒在了我的身上。
(考原课文填空,英文,注意新单词) 9 那天我学会了很多新词。
现在我已记不清都是些什么词了,但我还记得其中有“妈妈、爸爸、姐妹、老师”。
这些词使得整个世界就像有了“亚伦的神杖,充满了鲜花”,为我绽开。
在这个重要的日子快要结束时,已很难找到一个比我更加幸福的孩子。
我躺在自己的小床上,回味着这一天所给予我的欣喜;渴望着新的一天的到来,这是我有生以来从未有过的期盼。
(考课文英翻汉)第六单元,人和动物的好斗性1 人类肯定是所有动物中最好斗和最残忍的。
我们会说暴徒的行为就“像野兽”,然而事实上,没有任何一种动物象人类那样残暴。
当领域性的动物或鸟类侵入了别的同类动物的领地时,后者只会做一些表示敌意的姿态以吓跑入侵者。
但是,万一有争斗,任何一方都不会受重伤,因为败方会做出姿态表示投降以便保全性命。
一般情况下,动物之间只会为了觅食而杀戮,同类动物之间自相残杀是极少见的。
(考课文英翻汉)2 然而,如果动物发现自己处于异常环境下,它会表现出特别地富有攻击性。
有一只老虎从丛林跑到村庄来,袭击了人,后来人们发现原来它的爪子受了伤,使它显然不能像平时那样去猎食。
假如不是因为受伤,这只虎毫无疑问还会呆在丛林里,并像往常那样去猎取食物。
关在动物园笼子里的动物,往往会比在野外时更加寻衅好斗。
比如说,关在笼子里的狮子一旦能自由自在地徜徉在非洲的大草原上,那么它会一直活力充沛,长途游弋,与家族同类一起追捕食物。

新视野大学英语课文翻译第三册Unit 1威廉斯勋爵代价昂贵的贵族梦苏格兰托明陶尔——周六晚,在"牢骚酒吧",村民依旧乐意向"威廉斯勋爵"祝酒,尽管这个头衔现在只能引来阵阵笑声。
如今他们就叫他"托尼"。
这个美丽的山村座落在苏格兰山区,总共只有320人,其中一些村民说,他们一直不太了解安东尼·威廉斯。
这位有钱的贵族说话和气,1986年和他穿着入时的妻子一同来到这里。
还有一些人说,他们的怀疑是与日俱增的,因为55岁的威廉斯先生总是西装革履地在周末出现,他买下了一笔又一笔的地产,给小村投入大量现金,独自一人使这个小村庄起死回生。
可是谁也没有料到这个事实:这个财源滚滚、举止友好的人并非什么勋爵,而是一名政府公务员。
他幻想自己是位苏格兰贵族,并从苏格兰场(即伦敦警察总署)盗用钱财来买这个贵族头衔。
威廉斯先生自1959年起效力于伦敦警署,官至财务部副主管,年薪65,000英镑。
大约两周前,后悔不已的他在法庭受审,被判监禁7年半。
据估计他在该村投入了近500万英镑的赃款,提供了43个就业机会。
如今他落难入狱,至少仍有部分村民支持他。
"我觉得这个人非常可爱,非常友好,非常体贴,一点也不傲慢。
" 70岁的乔吉·麦卡利斯特这样说。
他是当地博物馆馆长,家里人世代都在周围山上种地。
" 很难理解一个像他这样聪明的人会那样误导别人。
真是糟糕。
当然,这对我们村倒不坏,许多房产都修缮得很漂亮。
"距广场几家之遥,理发师唐纳德·科尔坐在自己的店里讲述人们是如何开始怀疑的。
" 每个人都猜疑钱是从哪来的,为什么他要把钱花在山沟里的一个小地方?老天,他就是等100年也收不回这些钱。
"依据法庭调查,威廉斯八年中共窃取了800多万英镑。
其中大部分钱来自一项由他单独管辖的秘密基金。
该基金本应用来支付间谍费用,以及开展对抗爱尔兰共和军的秘密活动。

大学英语3课文及翻译篇1The Expensive Fantasy of Lord WilliamsTomintoul, Scotland —On Saturday night at The Grouse's Nest, they're still willing to raise a glass or two to “Lord Williams” though now his title prompts laughter. And now they just call him “Tony”.There are those in this beautiful village in the mountains of Scotland (population, 320) who say they were never quite sureabout Anthony Williams, the soft-spoken, wealthy noble who arrived in 1986 with his well-dressed wife.And there are others who say their suspicions were aroused over time, as the 55-year-old Mr. Williams, who appeared onweekends turned out in fine suits, bought up property after property, providing such a large injection of cash into the villagethat he single-handedly brought the community back to life.But no one could have possibly guessed the truth — that the man with endless money and a friendly manner was not a lordat all but a government employee living out a fantasy that he was a Scottish noble and paying for it by stealing funds fromScotland Yard.About two weeks ago, a regretful Mr. Williams, who had worked for the London police since 1959 and had risen to a £65,000 a year position as deputy director of finance, was brought into court and sentenced to seven and a half yearsinprison.Estimates are that he poured nearly £5 million of the stolen money into the village and gave jobs to 43 people. And nowthat he has fallen upon dark days at least some villagers are sticking by him.“I found him a very charming man, very friendly, considerate —not at all proud,” said Georgie McAllister, 70, themanager of the local museum whose family has been farming the surrounding hills for generations. “It's hard to understandhow a clever person like him could mislead people like that. It's sad. Of course, it did benefit the village. A lot of the propertieswere beautifully restored.”A few doors down the square, barber Donald Corr sat inside his shop and described how suspicions began to grow. “Everyonewondered where the money was coming from. Why was he spending it in a little place in the mountains? Christ, he wouldn'thave gotten it back in 100 yea rs.”According to the court, Mr. Williams stole more than £8 million over eight years. Most of it came from a secret fund thathad been placed under his sole authority and that was supposed to be used to pay spies and conduct secret activities againstthe Irish Republican Army.Instead, it went to create one more British lord.Mr. Williams bought an estate with a fine brick house in England. He bought a beautiful home with white walls and a poolin Spain. He bought noble titles at auctions, spending £95,000 to become the Lord of Chirnside, and then adding on 10 moreScottish titles.But most of all, he sunk his dishonest gains into this village that captured his heart with its fine stone cottages, its centralareaof green grass, green rows of hedges, and its fantastic view of rolling fields and pine forests disappearing into the distancelike the men of an ancient army marching over the horizon.He bought multiple cottages and fixed them up. He purchased the pub and made it into a fine place to have a glass ofGlenlivet Scotch whiskey, produced only 10 miles (16 kilometers) to the north. And most of all, he bought the run-downGordon Arms Hotel and totally restored it, transforming it from a mess into a glorious first-class hotel with 30 handsomelyfurnished rooms, wood-paneled stairs, false bookshelves with fake leather books and an outstanding restaurant.“I would offer him three choices of glasses for the restaurant: an average one, a poor one, and fine crystal. Always, he chosethe crystal. Nothing but the best,” said David Abdy, who was chosen by Mr. Williams to manage the construction work andrun the businesses.Mr. Williams deceived everyone, including Mr. Abdy and including even his own wife, telling them that he inherited themoney from a rich uncle. He was caught because his bank deposits were so large that they were noticed by the bank'smanagement. The bank notified the police, who discovered, to their terrible embarrassment, that the criminal was one oftheir own.The London police commissioner publicly apologized for poorly supervising his department. Under a hastily madearrangement, the police will sell the properties, but at a substantial financial loss. Mr. Abdy, a 27-year-old businessman,acquired the bulk of the properties for about half a million pounds, obtaining bank loans and striking deals withvarious peopleto pay only a part of what they are owed by Mr. Williams.In the only interview he has given since his arrest a year ago, Mr. Williams discussed his motives for the crime with aLondon newspaper: “I discovered this bloody huge amount of money. I went from the need to pay off a few debts to what canonly be described as greed. There is no way to justify it.”翻译我哥哥吉米出生时遇上难产,因为缺氧导致大脑受损。
