Unit1.课文翻译Translation奔向更加光明的未来1 下午好!作为校长,我非常自豪地欢迎你们来到这所大学。
你们所取得的成就是你们自己多年努力的结果,也是你们的父母和老师们多年努力的结果。
在这所大学里,我们承诺将使你们学有所成。
2 在欢迎你们到来的这一刻,我想起自己高中毕业时的情景,还有妈妈为我和爸爸拍的合影。
妈妈吩咐我们:“姿势自然点。
”“等一等,”爸爸说,“把我递给他闹钟的情景拍下来。
”在大学期间,那个闹钟每天早晨叫醒我。
至今它还放在我办公室的桌子上。
3 让我来告诉你们一些你们未必预料得到的事情。
你们将会怀念以前的生活习惯,怀念父母曾经提醒你们要刻苦学习、取得佳绩。
你们可能因为高中生活终于结束而喜极而泣,你们的父母也可能因为终于不用再给你们洗衣服而喜极而泣!但是要记住:未来是建立在过去扎实的基础上的。
4 对你们而言,接下来的四年将会是无与伦比的一段时光。
在这里,你们拥有丰富的资源:有来自全国各地的有趣的学生,有学识渊博又充满爱心的老师,有综合性图书馆,有完备的运动设施,还有针对不同兴趣的学生社团——从文科社团到理科社团、到社区服务等等。
你们将自由地探索、学习新科目。
你们要学着习惯点灯熬油,学着结交充满魅力的人,学着去追求新的爱好。
我想鼓励你们充分利用这一特殊的经历,并用你们的干劲和热情去收获这一机会所带来的丰硕成果。
5 有这么多课程可供选择,你可能会不知所措。
你不可能选修所有的课程,但是要尽可能体验更多的课程!大学里有很多事情可做可学,每件事情都会为你提供不同视角来审视世界。
如果我只能给你们一条选课建议的话,那就是:挑战自己!不要认为你早就了解自己对什么样的领域最感兴趣。
选择一些你从未接触过的领域的课程。
这样,你不仅会变得更加博学,而且更有可能发现一个你未曾想到的、能成就你未来的爱好。
一个绝佳的例子就是时装设计师王薇薇,她最初学的是艺术史。
随着时间的推移,王薇薇把艺术史研究和对时装的热爱结合起来,并将其转化为对设计的热情,从而使她成为全球闻名的设计师。

UNIT 1课文翻译一位青年男子发现,漫无目的的逛街也会惹官司。
误会一场接一场,直到最终他必须出庭受审……法律小冲突我平生就一次陷入法律困境。
当时被捕并被传上法院的全过程是件相当不愉快的经历,但现在可用此编个好故事。
让人非常烦恼的是我被抓和接着在法庭的命运中那些主观武断的情景。
此事大约发生在十二年前的二月份。
那里我已中学毕业了几个月,并要等到该年十月份才能上大学。
那段时间,我仍住在家中。
一天早晨,我去了里士满,那是离我的地址不远的伦敦郊区。
我正在找一份临时工作以便攒点钱去旅行。
由于天气晴朗,且无急事,我便悠闲自得地看看商店橱窗,逛逛公园,甚至有时只是呆站着到处观望。
很可能是这种明显的无所事事的样子导致了我的不幸。
事情发生的时间是大约十一点半。
我正从地方图书馆走出来,本想在那里找一份工作而一无所获。
此时看到一位男士从街对面走来,显然打算和我讲话。
我猜想他是向我问时间。
然而,他说他是警官并要逮捕我。
起初,我想这是在开玩笑,但接着又来了一位警察,并穿着警服。
我便深信不疑了。
“但为什么呢?”我问。
“到处遛达,有作案嫌疑。
”他说。
“作什么案?”我问。
“偷窃,”他说。
“偷什么?”我问。
“牛奶瓶,”他说,还做出非常严肃的样子!“噢,”我说。
事情的缘由是那一带有许多小窃贼,特别是有从门前台阶上盗奶瓶的小偷。
接着,我犯了一个大错误。
那时我正十九岁,头发长而蓬乱,并把自己当作六十年代“逆文化年轻人”的一员。
因此,我装着一副冷漠的毫不在乎的样子。
所以我说“你们跟踪我多久啦?”说话的腔调尽量装出无所谓有样子,就象随便谈话一样。
于是在他们看来我是十分熟悉此类事情,这使他们更加坚信我彻头彻尾是个名声不好的人。
几分钟后,一辆警车来了。
“坐到后排去,”他们说:“把手放在前排椅背上,不要挪动。
”他俩坐在我的两边。
这倒不是开玩笑的。
在警察局他们审问了我几个小时。
我继续尽力做出深谙世故并对此事习以为常的样子。
当他们问我一直在干什么时,我告诉他们我一直在找工作。

新视界大学英语综合教程第八单元课文翻译及练习答案Active Reading警钟已经敲响了全世界的孩子们:你们好!新年快乐!我们又该敲响钟声辞旧迎新了!(估计你们还有人不知道“辞旧迎新”这种说法是怎么来的。
以前,每到除夕之夜,我们都会敲响教堂的钟,来告别过去,迎接未来。
)但是今年,我想与你们说说我对环境的一些忧虑。
我刚刚和我亲爱的老朋友圣诞老人聊天来着,他给你们送完了礼物,刚刚回到北极的家。
他告诉我,今年,他的一只驯鹿腿受伤了,差一点没能准时在圣诞节送出礼物。
那是春天的事了。
那时,冰层本来应该是很厚的,但事实上却比以往要薄很多,于是那只驯鹿差点掉进北冰洋。
圣诞老人还告诉我,他的北极熊朋友们不得不走到更远的地方去寻找结实的冰和雪,而北冰洋的鸟类迁徙的时间也与往常不一样了。
看来问题出在气候变化上。
全世界的科学家都已经意识到,我们为了取暖、降温和出行而使用的天然气、石油和煤炭会释放大量的二氧化碳到地球的大气层,从而导致太阳的热能积聚在大气层中,这就叫做温室效应。
温室效应又引起各种其他的变化,我们都知道,有的变化是糟糕透顶的。
所以,天气在变化。
雨不再是细雨,而是使海水泛滥、山洪暴发的狂风暴雨。
甚至一些国家(比如马尔代夫群岛)和大城市(例如纽约和伦敦)也受到了威胁。
而其他地方却因降雨量不足而庄稼干旱,所以有人就会挨饿。
我们最喜欢的一些动物,比如大象、老虎和狮子,也正在失去它们的家园。
不过,我们是可以做点什么让事情改观的。
要知道,这些科学家还说,我们可以用可再生资源来满足大多数能源需求,以此来与气候变化作斗争。
比如,我们可以使用风力涡轮来为房屋照明、取暖,为车辆提供电力。
圣诞老人很关心自己的航空里程,这不足为奇,因为他要把那么多的礼物送给你们这些孩子啊!但我们也找到了弥补的方法,他可以捐钱在巴西种一片森林以抵消他在圣诞前夜产生的二氧化碳。
因为新种的森林能够吸收同等数量的二氧化碳。
你要是坐飞机的话,或许也可以这样做?我们从哥本哈根环境峰会上得知,必须要减少二氧化碳的排放量才能增强气温的稳定性,使其变化范围保持在1.5-2 摄氏度之内。

有人预言,如果我们到2020 年还做不到这一点,那么北极的冰盖必然融化,海平面将要上升,岛屿和沿海地区将被淹没,热带国家将化为沙漠,寒冷的国家将暖和得令人难以忍受。
所以,请想想你们在家里和学校都消耗了多少能源,努力减少你们的碳使用量吧!请提醒大家随手关掉那些开着却无人使用的电灯和电器,比如电视或手机充电器。
看看你们是否可以集资在花园里安装风力涡轮,或在房顶上安装太阳能。
尽可能使用公共交通工具。
最重要的是,在你们的学校开展宣传活动,让大家都知道你们在做什么,包括你们的家人、朋友、老师和政界人士,因为知道的人越多,就有越多的人意识到我们的时间已不多了。
如果我们的时间不够了,怎么办呢?很不幸,到那个时候,世界上就不会再有人互祝新年快乐了。

2 It has become apparent to scientists from around the world that the gas, oil and coal, which we all use to stay warm, stay cool, and travel around, release lots of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere of the earth.全世界的科学家都已经意识到,我们为了取暖、降温和出行而使用的天然气、石油和煤炭会释放大量的二氧化碳到地球的大气层。
3 You see, these scientists then went on to tell me that we could combat climate change by generating most of our energy needs with resources which we can renew.要知道,这些科学家还说,我们可以用可再生资源来满足大多数能源需求,以此来与气候变化作斗争。
4 Then at the environment summit in Copenhagen, we learnt that we have to decrease the carbon dioxide we generate in order to increase the stability of our temperature by 1.5–2 degrees centigrade.我们从哥本哈根环境峰会上得知,必须要减少二氧化碳的排放量才能增强气温的稳定性,使其变化范围保持在1.5-2摄氏度之内。
