新视野大学英语book4 unit2阅读答案
Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)
(每小题：分)
Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
For an increasing number of students at American universities, old is suddenly in. The reason is obvious: the graying of America means jobs. Coupled with the aging of the baby-boom (生育高峰) generation, a longer life span means that the nation's elderly population is bound to expand significantly over the next 50 years. By 2050, 25 percent of all Americans will be older than 65, up from 14 percent in 1995. The change poses serious questions for government and society, of course. But it also creates career opportunities in medicine and health professions, and in law and business as well. "In addition to the doctors, we're going to need more sociologists, biologists (生物学家), city planners and specialized lawyers," says Professor Edward Schneider of the University of Southern California's (USC) School of Gerontology (老
年学).
Lawyers can specialize in "elder law", which covers everything from trusts and estates to nursing-home abuse and age discrimination (歧视). Businessmen see huge opportunities in the elder market because the baby boomers, 74 million strong, are likely to be the wealthiest group of retirees in human history. "Any student who combines an expert knowledge in gerontology with, say, an MBA or law degree will have a license to print money," one professor says.
Margarite Santos is a 21-year-old senior at USC. She began college as a biology major but found she was "really bored with bacteria". So she took a class in gerontology and discovered that she liked it. She says, "I did volunteer work in retirement homes and it was very satisfying."
1.The words "... old is suddenly in" (Para. 1) most probably
means "_______".
A. America has suddenly become a nation of old people
B. gerontology has suddenly become popular
C. more elderly professors are found on American campuses
D. American colleges have realized the need of enrolling
older students
2.With the aging of America, lawyers can benefit _______.
A. from the adoption of the "elder law"
B. from rendering special services to the elderly
C. by enriching their professional knowledge
D. by winning the trust of the elderly to promote their own
interests
3.Why can businessmen make money in the emerging elder
market?
A. Retirees are more generous in spending money.
B. They can employ more gerontologists.
C. The elderly possess an enormous purchasing power.
D. There are more elderly people working than before.
4.Who can make big money in the new century according to
the passage?
A. Retirees who are business-minded.
B. The volunteer workers in retirement homes.
C. College graduates with an MBA or law degree.
D. Professionals with a good knowledge of gerontology.
5.It can be seen from the passage that the expansion of
America's elderly population ________.
A. will provide good job opportunities in many areas
B. will impose an unbearable burden on society
C. may lead to nursing home abuse and age discrimination
D. will create new fields of study in universities
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.
The decline in moral standards—which has long concerned social analysts—has at last captured the attention of average Americans. And Jean Bethke Elshtain, for one, is glad.
The fact that ordinary citizens are now starting to think seriously about the nation's moral climate, says this ethics (伦理学) professor at the University of Chicago, is reason to hope that new ideas will come forward to improve it.
But the challenge is not to be underestimated. Materialism and individualism in American society are the biggest obstacles. "The thought that 'I'm in it for me' has become deeply rooted in the
national consciousness," Ms. Elshtain says.
Some of this can be attributed to the decay of traditional communities, in which neighbors looked out for one another, she says. With today's greater mobility and with so many couples working, those bonds have been weakened, replaced by a greater emphasis on self.
In a 1996 poll of Americans, loss of morality topped the list of the biggest problems facing the US. And Elshtain says the public is correct to sense that: Data show that Americans are struggling with problems unheard of in the 1950s, such as classroom violence and a high rate of births to unmarried mothers.
The desire for a higher moral standard is not a lament (挽歌) for some nonexistent "golden age," Elshtain says, nor is it a wishful (一厢情愿的) longing for a time that denied opportunities to women and minorities. Most people, in fact, favor a decrease in prejudice.
Moral decline will not be reversed until people find ways to counter the materialism in society, she says. "Slowly, you recognize that the things that matter are those that can't be bought."
6.Professor Elshtain is pleased to see that Americans ________.
A. have adapted to a new set of moral standards
B. are longing for the return of the good old days
C. have realized the importance of material things
D. are awakening to the lowering of their moral standards
7.The moral decline of American society is caused mainly by ________.
A. its growing wealth
B. the self-centeredness of individuals
C. underestimating the impact of social changes
D. the prejudice against women and minorities
8.Which of the following characterizes the traditional communities?
A. Great mobility.
B. Emphasis on individual effort.
C. Concern for one's neighbors.
D. Ever-weakening social bonds.
9.In the 1950s, classroom violence ________.
A. was something unheard of
B. attracted a lot of public attention
C. was by no means a rare occurrence
D. began to appear in analysts' data
10.According to Elshtain, the current moral decline may be reversed ________.
A. if people can return to the "golden age"
B. when women and men enjoy equal rights
C. when people rid themselves of prejudice
D. if less emphasis is laid on material things
新视野大学英语4选词填空答案及翻译 一 Have you ever known anyone famous? If so, you may have found that they are remarkably similar to th e rest of us. You may have even heard them object to people saying there is anything different about them. “I’m really just a normal guy,”protests an acto r who has recently rocketed into the spotlight. There is, of course, usually a brief period when they actually start t o believe they are as great as their worshipping f ans suggest. They start to wear fancy clothes and talk as if everyone should hear what they have to say. This period, however, does not often last long. They fall back to reality as fast as they h ad originally risen above it all. What will it feel like to soar to such altitude and look down like an eagle from up high on everyone else? And what will it feel like to have flown so hi gh only to wake from your dream and realize you are only human? Some only see the cruelty in losin

The formation and development of the Chinese calligraphy is closely related to the emergence and evolution of Chinese characters. In this long evolutionary process,Chinese characters have not only played an important role in exchanging ideas and transmitting culture but also developed into a unique art works well reflect calligraphers’ personal feeling, knowledge, self-cultivation, personality, and so forth, thus there is an expression that “seeing the calligraphers’ handwriting is like s eeing the person”.

新视野大学英语（第三版）第二册读写教程课后答案 新视野大学英语（第三版）第二册读写教程课后答案Unit 1 Language in mission Text A An impressive English lesson Ex.1 Understanding the text 1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules. 2、The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account; however, what the student could do was only one single utterance :“whoa!” without any any specific comment. 3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language. 4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with. 5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs. 6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before. 7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary. 8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, tho ugh in two different situations and with two different feelings.

Unit 1 A Technological Revolution in Education 教育界的科技革命 如果让生活在1900年的人来到我们这个时代，他会辨认出我们当前课堂里发生的许多事情——那盛行的讲座、对操练的强调、从基础读本到每周的拼写测试在内的教学材料和教学活动。可能除了教堂以外，很少有机构像主管下一代正规教育的学校那样缺乏变化了。 让我们把上述一贯性与校园外孩子们的经历作一番比较吧。在现代社会，孩子们有机会接触广泛的媒体，而在早些年代这些媒体简直就是奇迹。来自过去的参观者一眼就能辨认出现在的课堂，但很难适应现今一个10岁孩子的校外世界。 学校——如果不是一般意义上的教育界——天生是保守的机构。我会在很大程度上为这种保守的趋势辩护。但变化在我们的世界中是如此迅速而明确，学校不可能维持现状或仅仅做一些表面的改善而生存下去。的确，如果学校不迅速、彻底地变革，就有可能被其他较灵活的机构取代。 计算机的变革力 当今时代最重要的科技事件要数计算机的崛起。计算机已渗透到我们生活的诸多方面，从交通、电讯到娱乐等等。许多学校当然不能漠视这种趋势，于是也配备了计算机和网络。在某种程度上，这些科技辅助设施已被吸纳到校园生活中，尽管他们往往只是用一种更方便、更有效的模式教授旧课程。 然而，未来将以计算机为基础组织教学。计算机将在一定程度上允许针对个人的授课，这种授课形式以往只向有钱人提供。所有的学生都会得到符合自身需要的、适合自己学习方法和进度的课程设置，以及对先前所学材料、课程的成绩记录。 毫不夸张地说，计算机科技可将世界上所有的信息置于人们的指尖。这既是幸事又是灾难。我们再也无须花费很长时间查找某个出处或某个人——现在，信息的传递是瞬时的。不久，我们甚至无须键入指令，只需大声提出问题，计算机就会打印或说出答案，这样，人们就可实现即时的"文化脱盲"。 美中不足的是，因特网没有质量控制手段；"任何人都可以拨弄"。信息和虚假信息往往混杂在一起，现在还没有将网上十分普遍的被歪曲的事实和一派胡言与真实含义区分开来的可靠手段。要识别出真的、美的、好的信息，并挑出其中那些值得知晓的, 这对人们构成巨大的挑战。 对此也许有人会说，这个世界一直充斥着错误的信息。的确如此，但以前教育当局至少能选择他们中意的课本。而今天的形势则是每个人都拥有瞬时可得的数以百万计的信息源，这种情况是史无前例的。 教育的客户化 与以往的趋势不同，从授权机构获取证书可能会变得不再重要。每个人都能在模拟的环境中自学并展示个人才能。如果一个人能像早些时候那样"读法律"，然后通过计算机模拟的实践考试展现自己的全部法律技能，为什么还要花12万美元去上法学院呢？用类似的方法学开飞机或学做外科手术不同样可行吗？ 在过去，大部分教育基本是职业性的：目的是确保个人在其年富力强的整个成人阶段能可靠地从事某项工作。现在，这种设想有了缺陷。很少有人会一生只从事一种职业；许多人都会频繁地从一个职位、公司或经济部门跳到另一个。 在经济中，这些新的、迅速变换的角色的激增使教育变得大为复杂。大部分老成持重的教师和家长对帮助青年一代应对这个会经常变换工作的世界缺乏经验。由于没有先例，青少年们只有自己为快速变化的"事业之路"和生活状况作准备。 技术的更深远影响

Translation 10 苏格拉底是古希腊哲学家，被誉为现代西方哲学的奠基人。他是一个谜一般的人物，人们主要通过后来的一些古典作家的叙述，尤其是他最著名的学生柏拉图的作品去了解他。苏格拉底以他对伦理学的贡献而闻名。他的教学法亦称为苏格拉底法，即通过提问和回答来激发批判性思维以及阐述观点。该方法在各种讨论中仍被普遍使用。他还在认识论和逻辑领域作出了重大而深远的贡献。他的思想和方法所带来的影响一直是后来的西方哲学的坚实基础。苏格拉底是古代哲学史上最丰富多彩的人物。他在他那个时代已威名远扬。虽然他未曾建立什么哲学体系，未曾设立什么学派，也未曾创立什么宗派，但他的名字很快就变得家喻户晓了。 11 Confucius was a great thinker and educator in Chinese history. He was the founder of Confucianism and was respectfully referred to as an ancient “sage”. His words and life story were recorded in The Analects. An enduring classic of ancient Chinese culture, The Analects has had a great influence on the thinkers, writers, and statesmen that came after Confucius. Without studying this book, one could hardly truly understand the thousands-of-years’ traditional Chinese culture. Much of Confucius’thought, especially his thought on education, has had a profound influence on Chinese society. In the 21st century, Confucian thought not only retains the attention of the Chinese, but it also wins an increasing attention from the international community. Section B
