第一单元P14
One Match Factory, a major match producer for domestic use in Henan Province and one of the biggest factories in the country, recently sent an SOS to the Ministry of Railways, saying that the factory was running short of timber. The message is not a false alarm. The drastic cutbacks in the output of the factory have caused an acute shortage of matches in the market over the last three months. In the cities, a box of matches is now selling at four times its normal price on the black market; in the countryside, people do not even have matches to light their cooking stoves
第二单元P35
我们没有理由要成为敌人。我们哪一方都不企图取得对方的领土，我们哪一方都不企图统治对方，我们哪一方都不企图伸出手去统治世界。毛主席写过：“多少事，从来急，天地转，光阴迫。一万年太久，只争朝夕。”现在就是只争朝夕的时候，是我们两国人民攀登那种可以缔造一个新的、更美好的世界的伟大境界的高峰的时候了。本着这种精神，我请求诸位同我一起举杯，为毛主席，为周总理，为能够导致全世界所有人民的友谊与和平的中国人民和美国人民之间的友谊，干杯。
第三单元P53
克服怕死念头的最好办法，至少在我看来，就是逐步扩大你的兴趣，并使其更加脱离个人所关心的事情，直到禁锢自我的壁垒逐渐步步隐退，直到你的生命越来越同大千世界的生命融合在一起。个人的存在应该像一条河—起初狭小，局限在自己的河岸之间，然后激越地流过巨砾，冲下悬崖。河逐渐越流越宽广，河岸越来越后退，水流也越来越平静，最后和大海融为一体，分不出任何界限，毫无痛苦地失去了自我的存在。如果一个老年人能以这样的态度来看待生命，他就不会怕死，因为他所关心的一切将会继续下去。

首先，并非所有的英国人都保持着“英国人的气质”。某些举足轻重的头面人物，如政客、文人、官僚、野心勃勃的金融家和企业家均属此列，他们无不精心使自己摆脱“英国人的气质”。还有一批浅薄愚昧之辈甚至抱着嗤之以鼻的态度要将这一遗产彻底抛弃。
第七单元P128
两幅价值三千四百万的毕加索画被盗。它们是在巴黎一个外人免进的毕加索的孙女家中被窃的。这两幅肖像是星期二清晨四点失窃的。人们认为，当时毕加索孙女戴安娜正在法国首府的这座公寓二楼熟睡，警察也不知道窃贼是如何进屋的，因为没有任何明显的闯入痕迹。也许这些肖像是有了黑道买家才被盗的，因为其他的毕加索作品，包括图画，都丝毫未动。

UNIT1 Oxford University牛津大学 Oxford University is the oldest university in Britain and one of the world's most famous institutions of higher learning. Oxford University was established during the 1100's. It is located in Oxford, England, about 80 kilometers northwest of London. 牛津大学是英国最古老的大学，也是世界最著名的高等学府。牛津大学始建于12世纪。它位于英格兰的牛津，在伦敦西北约80公里处。 The university has over 16,300 students (1999-2000), almost a quarter of these students are from overseas and more than 130 nationalities are represented. It consists of 35 colleges, plus five private halls established by various religious groups. Three of the five private halls are for men only. Of the colleges, St. Hilda's and Somerville are for women, and the rest are for men and women. 牛津大学有16,300多名学生（1999－2000），其中留学生占将近四分之一。他们来自130多个国家。牛津大学有35个学院，还有5个由不同宗教团体建立的私人学院。5个私人学院中，有3个只招男生。学院中，圣希尔达和萨默维尔学院只收女生，其他均为男女兼收。At Oxford, each college is a corporate body distinct from the university and is governed by its own head and fellows. Most fellows are college instructors called tutors, and the rest are university professors and lecturers. Each college manages its own buildings and property, elects its own fellows, and selects and admits its own undergraduate students. The university provides some libraries, laboratories, and other facilities, but the colleges take primary responsibility for the teaching and well-being of their students. 牛津的每个学院都是独立于大学的实体，由该学院的院长和管委会成员负责管理。部分管委会成员都称为导师的学院教师，其余的是大学教授和讲师。每个学院管理自己的房产和资产，遴选自己的管委会，选择和招收自己的本科生。大学提供某些图书馆、实验室和其他设施，但教学和学生生活主要由各学院负责。 Each student at Oxford is assigned to a tutor, who supervises the student's program of study, primarily through tutorials. Tutorials are weekly meetings of one or two students with their tutor. Students may see other tutors for specialized instruction. They may also attend lectures given by university teachers. Students choose which lectures to attend on the basis of their own special interests and on the advice of their tutors. 牛津大学给每个学生指定一个导师，他主要通过辅导课监督学生的学习。导师每周和1到2名学生见面一次，学生如需专业指导，还可以去约见其他的导师，也可选听大学老师讲授的课程。学生选听什么课程是根据自己的兴趣和导师的建议而定的。 The university, not the individual colleges, grants degrees. The first degree in the arts or sciences is the Bachelor of Arts with honors. Oxford also grants higher degrees, diplomas, and certificates in a wide variety of subjects. 学位由大学授予，而不是各个学院。最低文科或理科学位是优等文学学士。牛津还在其他众多学科领域授予最高的学位，颁发文凭和证书。 The Rhodes scholarship program enables students from the United States, Canada, and many other nations to study at Oxford for a minimum of two years. The British government grants Marshall scholarships to citizens of the United States for study at Oxford and other universities that are located in Britain.
