Part Two Grammar Exercises
1. concrete nouns & abstract nouns
Concrete nouns are words we use for people, places, or things that we can observe with at least one of our five senses. The abstract class is the opposite — we can never experience these nouns according to our senses.
While this distinction is sometimes useful, the boundary between concrete and abstract is not always clear. Some nouns can be used as uncountable nouns when they refer to a thing in general and countable nouns when they refer to a particular instance of it, consider, for example, the noun art, which usually refers to a concept:
e. g. Art is an important element of human culture.
But it can refer to a specific artwork in certain contexts:
e.g. I put my daughter’s art up on the fridge.
This is the problem of context within sentences.
I. Complete the following sentences with the appropriate forms of the nouns given.
1. agony.
2. agonies.
3. experience.
4. experiences.
5. youth.
6. a youth.
7. My children are __a great help__ to me. (great, help)
8. The boy had __a good knowledge__ of mathematics. (good, knowledge)
9. a gray hair
10. He is looking for __work__. (work)
II. 1 A; 2 B; 3 D; 4 C; 5 A; 6 B; 7 B; 8 C.
III. a lot of; a little; some; a few; A; some; some; a lot of; X.
many; X; a lot of.
2. quantifiers & determiners (every, each, everyone, every one, all)
Each and every have similar but not always identical meanings.
each = every one separately
every = each, all
Sometimes, each and every have the same meaning:
e. g. Prices go up each year.
Prices go up every year.
But often they are not exactly the same.
Each expresses the idea of “one by one”. It emphasizes individuality.
e. g. Each artist sees things differently.
Every is half-way between each and all. It sees things or people as singular, but in a group or in general.
e. g. Every soldier saluted as the President arrived.
Each can be used in front of the verb:
e. g. The soldiers each received a medal.
Each can be followed by “of”:
e. g. The President spoke to each of the soldiers.
Every cannot be used for two things while each can:
e. g. He was carrying a suitcase in each hand.
Every is used to say how often something happens:
e. g. There is a plane to Bangkok every day.
Everyone means “everybody” and is used when you want to refer to all the people in a group:
e. g. Everyone in my family likes spaghetti.
But if you’re referring to the individuals who make up a group, then the phrase is every one. “Each and every one” you should never substitute everyone, for everyone as singular or plural:
e.g. We wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas.
All is more often used with plural verb forms, though sometimes it is used with singular verbs. However, if we wish to specify the things or people under discussion, we can use all or all of with nouns and pronouns and the correspondingly correct singular or plural verb forms.
e. g. Has all (of) the cake been eaten?
Have all (of) the presents been distributed?
All of us are going to Sam’s party next week. We’re all going.
IV. Complete the following with every, each, everyone, every one or all.
1. all; Every one; Every.
A: He had eaten _______ the biscuits.
B: What? _____________?
A: __________ single one.
2. The pavement on ________ side was crowded with neat smiling people. each;
3. Every;
4. each;
5. Everyone. The girl is very popular. ____________ likes her.
6. Each;
7. everyone; everyone; 8. Each.
3. dangling participles
Dangling participles is a participle that is not grammatically linked to the word it is intended to modify. In “Driving down the street, the house came into view,” “driving” is a dangling participle. Though they are not rare in speech, dangling participles are avoided in formal writing because of the possibility of misunderstanding.
e. g. The burglar was about 30 years old, white, 5′10″, with wavy hai r weighing about 150 pounds.
If properly installed, you shouldn’t be able to open the door without first pressing the safety button.
V. Correct errors in the following sentences.
1. When planting these flowers, care must be taken not to damage the roots.
you must take care
2. Though received late at night, he started to work on the document immediately.
Though he received the document … work on it….
3. Falling … we thought…. ------ When he fell
4. Reading the letter a second time, the meaning becomes clearer.
When you read
5. what he meant became clear to me ------- I became clear about what he meant
6. Shining in the sky we saw the first star.
We saw the first star shining in the sky.
7. The teacher walked behind the kids eating their lunches.
who were eating
8. While cleaning his gun, it went off unexpectedly.

VI Writing Practice
Paragraph development — the topic sentence
A topic sentence is a statement of the controlling idea that the rest of the paragraph clarifies, exemplifies, or supports. It is usually the most general statement of the paragraph but meanwhile specific enough so that it can be fully developed in a single paragraph. A good topic sentence promises what is to come.
A good topic sentence has three characteristics: it includes a topic and a controlling idea; it is limited; and it lends itself to development.
Exercise 1. Write a topic sentence to sum up the following details.
Set A
1. Denver, Colorado, is named for James Denver, a soldier and administrator of the Western frontier.
2. Mississippi’s capital Jackson is named after the seventh President of the United States.
3. Cleveland, Ohio’s largest city, gets its name from Moses Cleveland, a man who invested a lot of money in the area.
Topic sentence: Many American cities are named after important people who are or were locally or nationally famous.
Set B
Topic sentence: Happiness means different things to different people.
Exercise 2. For each of the following two paragraphs, the topic sentence has been taken out. Read them carefully and work out for each paragraph a topic sentence that you think can hold all the following details together.
A. The problem isn’t that there’s no interest in teaching. I constantly meet young people who’ve graduated from colleges and have signed up for teaching in some of the country’s toughest urban public schools. They are strongly interested in helping those so-called difficult kids. They find the work extraordinarily rewarding; the kids they teach benefit from their creativity and enthusiasm. But by the end of two years, most have either changed careers or moved to suburban schools — a consequence of low pay, a lack of support from the educational bureaucracy, and an overwhelming feeling of isolation, but never because of the lack of interest in teaching.
B. It means paying teachers what they’re worth. There’s no reason why an experienced, highly qualified, and effective teacher shouldn’t earn $100,000 annual ly at the peak of his or her career. Highly skilled teachers in such critical fields as math and science — as well as those willing to teach in the toughest urban schools —should be paid even more.

Lesson One: The Time Message Elwood N, Chapman 新的学习任务开始之际，千头万绪，最重要的是安排好时间，做时间的主人。本文作者提出了7点具体建议，或许对你有所启迪。 1 Time is tricky. It is difficult to control and easy to waste. When you look a head, you think you have more time than you need. For Example,at the beginning of a semester, you may feel that you have plenty of time on your hands, but toward the end of the term you may suddenly find that time is running out. You don't have enough time to cover all your duties (duty), so you get worried. What is the answer? Control! 译：时间真是不好对付，既难以控制好，又很容易浪费掉，当你向前看时，你觉得你的时间用不完。例如，在一个学期的开始，你或许觉得你有许多时间，但到学期快要结束时，你会突然发现时间快用光了，你甚至找不出时间把所有你必须干的事情干完，这样你就紧张了。答案是什么呢？控制。 2 Time is dangerous. If you don't control it, it will control you. I f you don't make it work fo r you, it will work against you. So you must become the master of time, not its servant. As a first-year college student, time management will be your number one Problem. 译：时间是危险的，如果你控制不了时间，时间就会控制你，如果你不能让时间为你服务，它就会起反作用。所以，你必须成为时间的主人，而不是它的奴仆，作为刚入学的大学生，妥善安排时间是你的头等大事。 3 Time is valuable. Wasting time is a bad habit. It is like a drug. The more time you waste,the easier it is to go on wasting time. If seriously wish to get the most out of college, you must put the time message into practice. 译：时间是珍贵的，浪费时间是个坏习惯，这就像毒品一样，你越浪费时间，就越容易继续浪费下去，如果你真的想充分利用上大学的机会，你就应该把利用时间的要旨付诸实践。 Message1. Control time from the beginning. 4 Time is today, not tomorrow or next week. Start your plan at the Beginning of the term. 译：抓紧时间就是抓紧当前的时间，不要把事情推到明天或是下周，在学期开始就开始计划。 Message2. Get the notebook habit. 5 Go and buy a notebook today, Use it to plan your study time each day. Once a weekly study plan is prepared, follow the same pattern every week with small changes. Sunday is a good day to make the Plan for the following week.

Scripts: Early life of Gabriel Garcia Marquez Gabriel Garcia Marquez is a well known Latin American writer. He was awarded the 1982 Nobel Prize in literature for his famous novel Hundred Years of Solitude. Today we are going to talk about his early life, and show how this part of his life influenced his works. Gabriel Garcia Marquez was born on March 6, 1928 in a town called Aracataca in Northern Colombia. At first, he was raised by his maternal grandparents as it was quite common at that time if one’s parents were poor and struggling. This part of life
新一代大学英语综合教程1 课后翻译 UNIT 1 2、Indeed, we might feel as if we are suddenly awash in friends. Yet right before our eyes, we're also changing the way we conduct relationships. Face-to-face chatting is giving way to texting and messaging; people even prefer these electronic exchanges to, for instance, simply talking on a phone.Smaller circles of friends are being partially eclipsed by Facebook acquaintances routinely numbered in the hundreds. Amid these smaller trends, growing research suggests we could be entering a period of crisis for the entire concept of friendship. Where is all this leading modern-day society? Perhaps to a dark place, one where electronic stimuli slowly replace the joys of human contact.确实如此，我们似乎感到突然之间好友数量井喷。不过，我们眼前也正在改变为人处世的方式。面对面的聊天正在被短信取代；相比打个电话，人们甚至更愿意使用这些电子交流方式。脸谱网上的熟人圈儿动辄数百人，相比之下，现实生活中规模较小的朋友圈则显得黯淡少光。在这些较细微的趋势中，越来越多的研究表明友谊的整个概念正在遭受危机，而我们也许正在一步步地迈向这个危机时代。所有这一切要把现代社会引向何方？也许现代社会就此陷入黑暗深渊，在这个深渊里，人与人之间交往的乐趣慢慢地被电子诱惑所取代。 8、No single person is at fault, of course. The pressures on friendship today are broad. They arise from the demands of work, say, or a general busyness that means we have less quality time for others. How many individuals would say that friendship is the most important thing in their lives, only to move thousands of miles across the continent to take up a better-paid job?当然，这并不是某个人的错。如今，交友压力来自方方面面。比如来自工作压力，或是整天瞎忙，无法和他人享有高质量的沟通时间。有人嘴上说友谊是生命中最重要的东西，却为了一份收入颇丰的工作远赴千里之外。这样的人还少吗？ 9、Of course, we learn how to make friends — or not — in our most formative years, as children. Recent studies on childhood, and how the contemporary life of the child affects friendships, are illuminating. Again, the general mood is one of concern, and a central conclusion often reached relates to a lack of what is called "unstructured time."当然，我们是在性格成型的最重要的孩提时期学会如何结交朋友或是如何断交。最近，关于儿童期和儿时生活对交友的影响的研究很有启发性。这些研究再一次关注了风气这个问题，其主要结论都与孩子缺少“计划外时间”有关。10、Structured time results from the way an average day is parceled up for our kids — time for school, time for homework, time for music practice, even time for play. Yet too often today, no period is left unstructured. After all, who these days lets his child just wander off down the street? But that is precisely the kind of fallow time so vital for deeper friendships. It's then that we simply "hang out," with no tasks, no
