Unit 1
As a foreigner doing business in the United States, I feel very rushed. I am used to friendly opening exchanges when doing business. Here in Chicago, things are different. There is no time for getting to know one another. This does not seem appropriate to me. There is no chance to develop a sense of trust when people meet to talk over issues. There are no rituals like tea or coffee before discussing business, though this is a(n) convention in my country. When we discuss business it starts with a(n) leisurely chat. I think that it is important for business partners to get familiar with each other first and to feel relaxed. If the exchange is too abrupt , there is a risk that something will be forgotten. Some possibilities go without being assessed when there is too much pressure. I don't believe this is the best strategy for proper communication. Besides, the perception is that they just don't care about you as an individual here. You are basically just another means of making money.
All of this used to create a real dilemma for me. At first, it caused me to have as little interaction with American business partners as possible. Gradually, though, I have come to understand the cultural differences between our two countries. This has really helped me to feel more comfortable doing business here.
作为一个外国人在美国做生意，我觉得很匆忙。我习惯了做生意的时候，开放交流的友好。在芝加哥，一切都不同了。你没有时间去了解彼此。这似乎并不适合我。是没有机会发展一个信任人们见面时谈的问题。没有任何仪式喜欢茶或者咖啡谈生意，虽然这是一个在我国（略）公约。当我们讨论业务开始与（氮）悠闲地聊天。我认为这是非常重要的商业伙伴熟悉彼此第一和放松。如果交流是太突然了，有一种风险，有些事情是可以遗忘。一些可能没有得到评估时，有太多的压力。我不相信这是最好的战略，适当的沟通。此外，看法是，他们只是不关心你作为个人在这里。你基本上只是另一种赚钱的方法。
这一切，用来创建一个真正的困境我。首先，它使我有小小的互动与美国商业合作伙伴尽可能。渐渐地，虽然，我已经明白了我们两国之间的文化差异。这真的让我感到更舒适，在这里做生意。
Unit 3
At first, my dad was not in favor of me marrying Will because Will is black. I guess my dad was a bit of a racist. Unfortunately, no arguments could counter dad's beliefs. Despite his protest , though, Will and I decided to go through with our wedding. On a marvelous June day we were married in the park. The wedding went off without any hostile words or embarrassing exchanges. It was actually quite beautiful. There was just one problem. Many of our friends and relatives didn't attend our wedding. I had to conclude that my dad was not the only prejudiced person we knew. Other than my father, no one had come out to speak against my relationship with Will. It
did not seem appropriate for them to show their resistance to our marriage in this way. My dad had strong reservations about my marriage to Will, but at least he was there. Will and I decided to overcome this burden by showing everyone how wrong they were. We wanted not only to love one another, but also to defy racial hatred by loving one another. We probably weren't being all that realistic, but we did succeed with one person. My dad and Will have developed an amazing friendship. My dad says he has forgotten why he ever had any doubts about our marriage.
首先，我的父亲不赞成我结婚，会因为是黑色的。我想我的爸爸是个种族主义者。不幸的是，没有理由可以对付爸爸的信仰。尽管他的抗议，不过，会和我决定通过与我们的婚礼。在一个精彩的六月我们结婚的日子在公园。婚礼没有任何敌对或尴尬的交流。它实际上是相当漂亮。只是有一个问题。我们的许多朋友和亲戚没有参加我们的婚礼。我认为我的爸爸不是唯一使我们认识的人。除了我的父亲，没有人出来说对我的关系，将。它似乎不适合他们展示他们的抵抗我这样。我爸爸有强烈的保留我的婚姻将，但他至少有。将和我决定克服这一负担，每个人展示他们有多错。我们希望不仅彼此相爱，而且无视种族仇恨的爱彼此。我们不可能都是现实的，但我们成功了一个人。我的爸爸，已经制定了一个惊人的友谊。我爸爸说他忘记了他为什么会有任何的怀疑，我们的婚姻。
Unit 4
What do we know about love? Is it, as some people would suggest, a mysterious force? Or can it be explained and possibly even created? Well, even in this scientific and reason-driven age, love seems still to defy total understanding. We can, however, know something about love and make stronger connections between individuals. One thing that seems to affect love is distance. The common idea is that the love between people grows as they are separated. Sometimes it is true that longing for someone who has gone overseas becomes more intense.
Something that nourishes love is danger. Send both lovers to dangerous places and they will end up loving each other more. This could be caused by the worry it develops. It could also be that feelings of uncertainty or need transform into love with time.
Love gives us warmth, courage, and a feeling of being safe, but it also demands selfless devotion and sacrifice. If you are truly committed to finding true love, you should make yourself more interesting. Do things that you enjoy and try to meet people who share identical interests.
我们知道什么是爱吗？这是因为，一些人建议，一个神秘的力量？或许可以解释，甚至可能造成的？好的，即使在这种科学和理性的时代，爱似乎仍然不完全理解。我们可以，但是，知道什么是爱和作出更大的个人之间的联系.
有一点似乎是爱的距离影响。普遍的看法是，人与人之间的爱成长为他们分开。有时这是真的，渴望某人去了海外变得更加激烈。
一些滋养爱情是危险的。发送爱好者危险的地方，他们将会爱彼此。这可能是因为担心它的发展。它也可能是感情的不确定性或需要变换成与时间的爱。
爱让我们温暖，勇气，和一个安全的感觉，但它也需要无私的奉献和牺牲。如果你是真正致力于寻找真爱，你应该让自己更有趣。做你喜欢的事情，并努力满足人们谁分享相同的兴趣。
Unit 5
My son has started to hang out with the wrong type of boys. He is fifteen years old and until recently I had always been grateful for how easy he has been to raise. Lately, though, he has ceased to listen to what I say. He used to be such a sweet boy, but being in high school seems to have hardened him against authority figures. The change in his attitude has been very noticeable even to his teachers.
The other day I asked him to come straight home after school, but instead he rebelled and stayed out until ten o'clock. Later I found out that he had skipped school completely that day. I found out that he was with a(n) bunch of boys who often cause trouble. I decided to forbid him to do anything with those boys, but he didn't listen to me. In spite of my objections to him being with those boys, he was with them the very next day.
A friend of mine has a son who is having identical problems. She decided to give him a change of scenery and sent him to a private school. I'm not sure this is the best solution, though. You can't just change a boy's behavior by changing his school every time he does something wrong. It is better to help a kid establish a good set of core values.
我儿子已经挂出了错误类型的男孩。他十五岁了，直到最近我一直很感激他提高了多么容易。最近，虽然，他已不复听我说。他曾经是这样一个可爱的男孩，但在高中似乎更加坚定了他对权威人物。他态度上的变化已经很明显甚至他的老师。
另一天，我问他放学后就回家，但他却背叛了，出去直到十点。后来我发现，他跳过学校完全的那天。我发现他是一个（氮）一群男孩子经常引起麻烦。我决定禁止他做那些事情的男孩，但他不听我的。尽管我反对他跟那些男孩，他是他们的下一天。
我的朋友有一个儿子谁有相同的问题。她决定给他换个环境，把他送到一所私立学校。我不知道这是最好的解决办法，虽然。你不能改变一个孩子的行为改变了学校每次他做错事。这是更好地帮助孩子建立良好的核心价值观。
Unit 6
My name, Bobby, is used both for boys and girls. Girls spell it "Bobbie". It is characteristic for little boys to be given a name with a "y" sound at the end. For example, I often had a Jimmy, Johnny or Billy in my classes. In my second grade, I also had a Bobbie. In order not to confuse us when she called our names, our teacher assigned us the names "Bobbie Girl" and "Bobby Boy". This caused me a lot of trouble on the playground. There, my friends labeled me "Bobbie Girl". For my friends, the apparent contrast between my name and my sex was the source of much laughter. The fact that they labeled me as a girl was very embarrassing . I had a tendency to compensate for my name by acting more like a boy than I might have otherwise. I threw more rocks and yelled louder than the sum of all of the other boys added together. The real "Bobbie Girl", conversely , acted more like a girl. When my teacher realized she had made a mistake, she stopped calling us "Bobbie Girl" and "Bobby Boy". Unfortunately, my friends never forgot or ceased calling me "Bobbie Girl". Third grade was an improvement; the original "Bobbie Girl" was in a different class. Also, I requested the teacher just call me "Bob".
我的名字，巴比，是用来为男孩和女孩。女孩拼“博比”。它的特点是小男孩得到一个名字与「底音。例如，我经常有吉米，强尼和比利在我的班级。我在二年级，我也有一个心愿。为了不把我们当她叫我的名字，老师让我们的名字“博比女孩”和“嗨”。这给我带来了很多麻烦，在操场。在那里，我的朋友说我“博比女孩”。我的朋友，的明显对比我的名字和我的性别是源远的笑声。事实上，他们说我是一个女孩很尴尬。我有一种倾向，弥补我的名字的作用更像一个男孩比我可能有其他。我把石头大声胜于和其他所有的男孩都加在一起。真正的“芭比女孩”，相反，表现更像是一个女孩。当老师意识到她犯了个错误，她停止给我们“博比女孩”和“嗨”。不幸的是，我的朋友，永远不会忘记或不再叫我“博比女孩”。第三年级的一个改进；原“博比女孩”是在一个不同的类。同时，我要求老师就叫我“·”。
Unit 7
My family, my boss, even my doctor had told me this would happen, but I didn't listen. They said I was getting overwhelmed and focusing too much on the negative things that happened to me. "If you don't learn to control how you react to bad things that happen in your life, you are going to cause damage to your heart," said my doctor. "So many of the situations you complain about are beyond your control. Getting caught in them is very destructive for you physically and emotionally. You have to learn to let these things go and focus on things you can actually change." I, undoubtedly, should have made his advice my number one priority right then. Unfortunately, I got caught in a traffic jam that very same day while driving home from work. This was the setting for the heart attack my doctor had warned me about. Instead of looking for a better outlet for my stress, I began to yell at the car in front of
me. Then the muscle fibers of my heart began beating like a bag of worms instead of pumping blood. Fortunately, it was only a mild heart attack. Someone came to my aid and then accompanied me to the hospital. I have definitely learned that life is too short to worry about things you can't control.
我的家人，我的老板，我的医生告诉我这会发生，但我没有听。他们说我是越来越不堪重负，重点太多的负面的事情发生在我。”如果你不学会控制你如何反应，糟糕的事情发生在你的生活，你会损害你的心，说：“我的医生。”这么多的情况，你抱怨你无法控制的。遇上他们是非常破坏你的身体和情感。你必须学会让这些事情于事情上，你可以改变。”我，毫无疑问，应该让他的忠告我优先权利。不幸的是，我遇到交通堵塞时，同一天下班开车回家。这是设置的心脏病医生警告我。而不是寻找一个更好的出路，我的压力，我开始在我前面的车。然后，肌纤维的我的心开始跳动像一袋蠕虫不是抽水血液。幸运的是，这只是一个轻微的心脏病发作。有人来帮助我，陪我去医院。我有一定了解，生命太短暂，担心那些你不能控制的事情。
Unit 8
Having a lot of money is useless without a good education. Life isn't simply about consumption and having a good time when you're not at work. Money will only cause you grief unless you use it for the welfare of the world. That's why I believe that a good education is indispensable. A formal education with emphasis on history, literature, and culture helps a person learn how to distinguish right from wrong. Education that only teaches skills specific to a job can only render skills for performing a task. It doesn't teach you how to make important decisions. Employers tend to demand more from their employees than the ability to perform a task. Our world needs workers who pay constant attention to high standards for their performance. It is evident that far too many people today are focusing on making money and not on improving themselves. What puzzles me is why people should ignore contributions to the good of humanity while making money. It is only rational a person who gives to the world enjoys the benefits. After all, our civilization simply can't be built on the principle of making money alone.
In summary, we must educate our young people to understand and love the world around them. This is the only way to ensure a better tomorrow.
有很多钱是无用的，没有一个好的教育。生活不是简单的消费和有一个很好的时间，当你不在工作。钱只会使你悲伤，除非你使用它，世界人民的福利。这就是为什么我认为一个好的教育是必不可少的。一个正式的教育重点放在历史，文学和文化，帮助一个人学习如何明辨是非。教育只有教技能的具体工作才能使技能执行任务。它不教你如何做重要的决定。雇主往往更需要员工的能力来执行任务。我们的世界需要工人谁经常注意高标准的性能。显而易见的是，很多人今天的重点是赚钱而不是在改善自己。令我不解的是，为什么人们要忽略的贡献人类的利
益而赚钱。这是唯一合理的人谁给世界享有的好处。毕竟，我们的文明不可能的原则基础上赚钱的。
总之，我们要教育年轻人了解和喜欢他们周围的世界。这是唯一的出路，以确保一个更好的明天。
Unit 9
Nobody has ever had to tell me to get out of bed. My number one asset has always been that I am much more ambitious than most. The way I see it, life is too short to make periodical concessions to comfort and fun. If you want to accomplish something remarkable, you've got to stay motivated and constantly work toward your goals. My goal has been to become a(n) journalist since I was a young boy. When I was eight, my father said, "That field of work is too competitive for you. You should be more realistic about your prospects and abilities."
I didn't want to deceive myself about how hard it would be, so I started that day by getting a job delivering newspapers. I departed from home every morning at 4:30 to do my work before school. I was fascinated with the printing machines so I always arrived to work early to ask questions. I wasn't much of a scholar, so I eventually ended up enrolling in an average university. Still, I was keen on becoming a reporter and did not give up my dream. I wrote for the school newspaper and when I graduated, took a job sorting mail with a local media company. I later convinced them to give me a chance to write some simple articles. That's how I got my start.
有人曾告诉我滚出去的床。我的头号资产一直是我更加雄心勃勃的比大多数。在我看来，生命太短暂，使期刊优惠的舒适和乐趣。如果你想完成某件事情，你要保持积极性和不断的向着你的目标。我的目标是成为一个（氮）记者因为我是一个年轻的男孩。我八岁的时候，我的父亲说，“这一领域的工作是对你太竞争。你应该更现实的前景和能力。”
我不想欺骗自己有多么难，所以我开始这一天被送报纸的工作。我离开了家，每天清晨四点半做我的工作在学校。我喜欢上了印刷机，所以我总是去上班早问问题。我不是个学者，所以我最终结束在普通高校招生。不过，我希望成为一个记者并没有放弃我的梦想。我为学校题写了报纸，当我毕业了，工作了邮件分类与当地媒体公司。后来我让他们给我一个机会，写一些简单的文章。这就是我开始的。
UNIT 8
It is strange that some people tell us the economy is bad and the job market is changing for the worse, especially for young people. This puzzles me. From my perspective, the world is never seen so many incredible opportunities for young people exiting college. Trends toward specialized careers and lower salaries leave economists and sociologists fearful that the next generation of
employees will be confined to roles that are too narrow and thus not regarding enough. Many say corporations are taking advantage of the labor force. But, no one is forcing our youth into such occupations. If a rewarding job does not exist in the current system, they’ll have to cre ate it for themselves. The Internet has already answered students’ cries for more career possibilities. The next breakthrough to create something truly creative is bound to happen anything now. At the same time let’s ensure that students are prepared for t he day when their chances are coming. By telling our young people everything has already been done and that there is nothing left to dream about, we are robbing them of the opportunity to create a system that is new and exciting, outside the confines of wh at is currently imaginable. But then again, maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I shouldn’t worry about our youth at all. Their ability to challenge what is before them and defy our unnecessary worries is their great strength. Maybe by telling them they can’t, we are i n effect encouraging them to create something truly incredible. All in all, the future for the young people is not gloomy; instead, it is promising.

大学英语四级考试复习方法 1 首先是要切忌单纯地背单词。往往在四级考试之前，许多同学会日日夜夜捧着一本词汇手册猛背，争取要在最后的时间中记住更多的单词。其实这是一个误区。背单词增大词汇量是件好事，但单纯得记单词就不可取了。俗话说，词不离句。意思就是说要把单词放到句子中去理解、去分析。 其次，要在最后的时间段里进行广泛地阅读，不断提高阅读的速度、技巧和效率，熟练掌握阅读科学的方法。纵所周知，阅读是四级考试中所占比例最大的一部分，那么我们该怎样将其把握好呢这就需要我们平时进行广泛地阅读，坚持阅读，在不断的阅读过程中掌握一定的方法。阅读的内容可广泛地涉及到时事，科技，文化，风土人情等。具体阅读的方法在很多相关的辅导书上都有介绍，在此不再赘述。总之，英语阅读很重要，广大同学要予以足够的重视。 再有，英语作文也是四级考试中很重要的一部分，而要提高这一部分的分值唯一的方法就是多写多练笔。笔者建议广大同学可以在最后的复习阶段做到每天写一篇，写作的内容可以是近期的热门话题。在写作的过程中发现不足，不断改进。 还有很重要的一点就是要坚持朗读。其实朗读带给我们的帮助不仅仅是提高语感，增强口语。还有就是它同样可以帮助我们
提高听力。边读边听，听读结合就能收到单纯地练习听力所得不到的效果。 最后谈谈参考书的问题。现在市场上的英语四级辅导书可谓良莠不齐，若是选书不当，往往会起到相反的效果，误人子弟。笔者不建议广大同学做太多的习题，买太多的辅导书，只需在考前有选择性地做几套历年的试题作为热身即可。因为历年的试题有其他模拟题所没有的规范性和权威性。 总之，掌握良好的复习方法，怀着一种平和的心态去参加考试，这样就一定能顺利地通过英语四级考试。 (一)大学英语四级考试听力复习方法 1.扎实的语言基本功听力理解技巧是建立在听力理解水平基础上的，而听力理解水平是通过听力理解能力来体现的，它包括记忆和回想的能力、选择要点的能力、推断演绎的能力、判断和得出结论的能力以及运用背景知识的能力。词汇主要涉及如何处理生词的问题，即利用上下文、同位语猜词的能力和一词多义的辨别能力。语法主要包括那些最基本的语法现象，如时态、语态、虚拟语气、比较级、最高级、否定式和说话人的口气等。语音、语调、词汇、语法是语言的基本要素，对它们的熟练掌握是打好语言基本功的关键。 2.预测、综合判断能力 总体来说听力技巧包括听前、听中和听后的准备，实施过程和相应的预测、记忆以及综合判断能力。听前预测是指从所给的
