Unit 1练习答案-全新版大学进阶英语-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company OnelUnit 1 Key to ExercisesOpener1.Mr. Qian Xuesen was a distinguished and world-renowned rocket scientist. Steve Jobs was a famous American entrepreneur, the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc.2.Both of them were dream pursuers and hard workers who finally succeeded in fulfilling their dreams in their own specialized domains. Qian Xuesen became universally acknowledged as the father of China’s space programs, and Steve Jobs came to fame as a creative entrepreneur who revolutionized many products, including personal computers and smartphones.3.In the early 1950s, Qian, a scientist working in the United States, suffered serious persecution by the US government just because he sympathized with China. However, he remained firm and overcame lots of difficulties and returned to his motherland in the end. Following that, he devoted himself whole-heartedly to the development of China’s nuclear weapons program. As to Jobs, he also had to overcome a lot of obstacles on his way to success. Once he was forced out of Apple, the company he had co-founded. But years later he came back and became its CEO, and led the world in tablet computing and smartphones.Reading & Interacting1.Understanding the Text2.Text OrganizationThe Development of the Writer’s Skills as a DJTI EMI Majoe- Evanij /tl QA■Thrm wBi fllu-ara mueit（）□ inhia■He- kxmi to MelnQkm Led ZeppcLu, Bab Murky, Jadcsca.■Hit 欣id who:pkyed dlew, folk, d的出 /周mwlc frcm 9th打皓On. his.iSth birthdari,2Hk dad asked him tn dwisynt Ihe- Estinir』班he DVOUM L加旬口t him 阳口fat 屯favv u He i3“-on. 鼻禽DJ And 力守忸HMF-A-5Hr ailed! si wdLknwu DJ -nal Mr to bde hrtori叼< e曲 fw few&Whun be Parted dEtp.）1ng d.1 皿血4Ek 51s楫up, iiLtcodjoed hli^sdE 口od 中IDUSJC Lelbng pe口出thur± Jit力油+ djeuLKow utieti he perform¥■ Ffels 很iful. vitib bl- body auLomjaticdly.S.■ Hff can heur some of tfhu kniH frequEncirs and ieel the-belt in hiss fw<.・i-k> LTMIU Ecftw 由b ihol: tumj ih# muHe into A fasipu-lAr we As■H A plm ⑪ Borts 口E gettoprtfcws. odk5fr part ire W enwiBprehension Check3.1Focusing on the main ideasRobbie Wilde has been enjoying his life as a DJ.

大学英语（一）Unit1课文译文和练习Unit One TextHow to Adapt to College Life Quickly课文译文如何快速适应大学生活当你第一次进入大学的时候，你会发现，大学生活和高中生活有很大区别。

在高中，我们总是依靠家长和老师帮助我们解决各种困难问题。

然而在大学，我们只能依靠自己。

除此以外，我们必须学会如何与同学、室友和睦相处。

几乎每个大学新生都经历过不同程度的紧张和焦虑情绪。

但是不用担心，现在给你一些建议，希望能帮助你尽快适应大学生活。

1、记住，不是只有你有这种情况。

你宿舍的每个人都有同样的情况。

和他们说说你的恐惧和焦虑。

他们可能也有同样的感觉，并且很乐意向你倾诉他们的感觉。

2、走出你的宿舍。

上大学的好处在于你可以与新的面孔一起重新开始生活。

他们不会知道你的过去，他们只会知道你希望他们知道的事情。

因此，尝试新的事物，不要害怕，试着展现新的个性。

弄清楚真正的自己，弄清楚你希望成为什么样的人，这是最佳的时机。

3、制定详细的学习计划。

学习计划应该包括：你的短期目标，每个阶段要阅读什么书籍，参加哪些课外活动，以及你每天的活动安排。

这会有助于你充分利用业余时间。

4、不要忘记享受大学生活！在大学里，要过得愉快，结交新朋友，和学习新知识。

而寄宿就是一个很好的方式。

和朋友们消磨时间，和学习伙伴一起努力备考。

做疯狂的事情，照相留念，分享有趣的故事----快活地渡过。

你只年轻一次！记住，你的朋友和你的父母都离你不远，只要你打一个电话就行。

记住，每个人的适应时间都是不同的。

从容以对，但最重要的是，学有所成。

Reading comprehensionPassage 1Telecommuting—substituting the computer from the trip to the job—has been hailed as a solution to all kinds of problems related to office work.For workers it promises freedom from the office, less time wasted in traffic, and help with child-care conflicts. For management, telecommuting helps keep high performers on board, minimizes tardiness(缓慢) and absenteeism(旷工, 缺勤) by eliminating commutes, allows periods of solitude for high-concentration tasks, and provides scheduling flexibility. In some areas, such as Southern California and Seattle, Washington, local governments are encouraging companies to start telecommuting programs in order to reduce rush-hour congestion(堵塞) and improve air quality.But these benefits do not come easily, Making a telecommuting program work requires careful planning and an understanding of the differences between telecommuting realities and popular imageMany workers are reduced by rosy illusions of life as a telecommuter. A computer programmer from New York City moves to the tranquil Adirondack Mountains and stays in contact with her office via computer. A manager comes in to his office three days a week and works at home the other two. An accountant stays home to care for her sick child; she hooks up her telephone mode connections and does office work between calls to the doctor.These are powerful images, but they are a limited reflection of reality. Telecommuting workers soon learn that it is almost impossible to concentrate on work and care for a young child at the same time. Before a certain age, young children cannot recognize, much less respect, the necessary boundaries between work and family. Additional child support is necessary if the parent is to get any work done.Management, too, must separate the myth from the reality. Although the media has paid a great deal of attention to telecommuting, in most cases it is the employee’s situation, not the availability of technology, that precipitates(使提前或突然发生) a telecommuting arrangement.That is partly why, despite the widespread press coverage, the number of companies with work-at-home programs or policy guidelines remains small.1. What is the main subject of the passage?A.Business management policies.B.Driving to work.C. Extending the workplace by means of computers.D. Computers for child-care purposes.2. What are the common problems for office employees?A.Being restricted to the office.B.Taking care of sick children.C.Driving in heavy traffic.D.All of them.3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a problem for employers that is potentiallysolved by telecommuting?A.Employees’ lateness for work.B.Employees’ absence from work.C. Employees’ need for time alone to work intensively.D. Employees’ conflicts with second jobs.4. What is the possible disadvantage of telecommuting?A.Small children cannot understand the boundaries of work and play.puter technology is not advanced enough to accommodate the needs of everysituation.C. Electrical malfunctions can destroy a project.D. The worker often does not have all the needed resources at home.5. Which of the following is an example of telecommuting as described in the passage?A. A scientist in a laboratory developing plans for a space station.B. A technical writer sending via computer documents created at home.C. A computer technician repairing an office computer network.D. A teacher directing computer-assisted learning in a private school.Passage 2Through a series of experiments an American scientist has obtained an understanding of the social structure of the most complex of ant societies. The ants examined are the only creatures other than man to have given up hunting and collecting for a completely agricultural way of life. In their underground nests they cultivate gardens on soil made from finely chopped leaves. This is a complex operation requiring considerable division of labour. The workers of this type of ant can be divided into four groups according to size. Each of the groups performs a particular set of jobs.The making and care of the gardens and the nursing of the young ants are done by the smallest workers. Slightly larger workers are responsible for chopping up leaves to make them suitable for use in the gardens and for cleaning the nest. A third group of still larger ants do the construction work and collect fresh leaves from outside the nest. The largest are the soldier ants, responsible for defending the nest.To find out how good the various size-groups are at different tasks, the scientist measured the amount of work done by the ants against the amount of energy they used. He examined first the gathering and carrying of leaves. He selected one of the size-groups, and then measured how efficiently these ants could find leaves and run back to the nest. Then he repeated the experiment for each of the other size-groups. In this way he could see whether any group could do the job more efficiently than the group normally undertaking it.The intermediate-sized ants that normally perform this task proved to be the most efficient for their energy costs, but when the scientist examined the whole set of jobs performed by each group of ants it appeared that some sizes of worker ants were not ideally suited to the particular jobs they performed.6. In what way are the ants different from other non-human societies?A. They do not need to search for food.B. They do not need to look for shelter.C. Individuals vary in social status.D. Individuals perform different functions.7. It seems that smaller ants perform more of the __________.A. construction tasksB. defensive workC. domestic tasksD. heavy work8. ―good‖ (Line 1,Para.3.)refers to ants’ _________.A. cooperation in workingB. sense of responsibilityC. efficiency in workingD. willingness to work hard9. The scientist’s work was based on __________.A.occasional observationsB.systematic observationsC.observations of several nestsD.observations of undisturbed nests10. The organization of the ants has the effect of ________.A.getting the most work doneB.dividing the work up systematicallyC.each ant helping with all the tasksD. each ant doing what it can do bestIII. Banked clozeI am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it weren’t for my job I would 1 head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic is the dream ?Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of 2 to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervous – cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play ; their mothers feel 3 from the rest of the world. Strangely 4 , whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower block don’t even say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, 5 from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages 6 . People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need 7 . But country life has disadvantages too. While it is 8 that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. There’s little possibility of going to a new show or the 9 movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on an expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often 10 by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.Key:I.1. C.2. B.3. A.4. D.5. A.6. D.7. A.8. C.9. B. 10. C.11. A. 12. D. 13. B. 14. B. 15.D.16.
