UNIT 3
There have been increased demands for higher education to provide students with better courses and more opportunities. To deal with this (1) (complex) issue, colleges and universities are turning to the Internet for quick (2) (access) to its rich educational resources. Now the Internet has been accepted as the (3 (preferred) technology to many other methods in colleges and universities. Many teachers now routinely (4) (post) their teaching materials online. A growing number of schools offer at least some (5) (undergraduate)courses over the Internet. There are two different models of making use of the Internet for higher education. The first model (6) (seeks)to improve existing courses by using the Internet. This model provides high-speed Internet (7) (connectivity)to all students, faculty, and staff. While this model uses the Internet, it doesn't (8) (require)many changes, and it keeps most existing institutional structures unchanged. A different, more revolutionary model regards the Internet as (9) (indispensable) to an important change in higher education, for it is believed that the Internet can (10) (transform) teacher-centered instruction into student-centered learning. This, as a result, will bring about basic change to our university education.
UNIT 4
In January 2011, Daniel Hernandez saved congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords' life in a mass shooting in Tucson. He kept her alive by (1) (applying)pressure to her wounds and speaking (2) (tender) words of sympathy until medical people arrived. He was (3) (hailed)as a hero by the public. Although his devotion to public service is (4) (remarkable), in his book They Call Me a Hero: A Memoir of My Youth, Hernandez insists that he is not a hero.
Hernandez said that he initially resisted the idea of writing a book about his experience on that day of enormous (5) (tragedy). "I had been (6)(pushed) by a few publishers after the incident," he said. "I thought heroes should be people who make a lifetime (7) (commitment) to helping others."
However, Hernandez, now a school board member, had come to realize that he would be interested in writing a book (8) (focusing)on his public service."As a young official, I've faced some big challenges, and I want young people to know that they need to face challenges and (9) (involve) themselves in their communities."
When asked if he had any plan with a second book, Hernandez said his major purpose at present was to continue to serve his community and pursue his passion as a(n) (10) (advocate) for education. "But I'm not going to say no," he said.

UNIT 5
For several centuries, cricket (板球) has been a very popular sport in England. It has been enjoyed by both professional and (1) (amateur)players. This super-popular game is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players. It can provide you with health benefits like building
(2)(endurance), balance, and physical fitness. But for a team sport, cricket also places
(3) (individual) players under unusual pressure because every team player is (4) (independent) of each other.
Cricket might have started in early 16th-century England. Written records (5)(present) evidence of a game known as creag being played by Prince Edward at Newenden, Kent in 1301; and it is possible, (6) (despite) no hard evidence, that this was a form of cricket. By the end of the 18th century, cricket had (7) (developed) into a national sport of England. The growth of the British Empire led to cricket being played abroad and by the mid-19th century the first international (8) (contests) were held. Cricket has had a(n) (9) (remarkable)impact on popular culture in England. It has had an influence on the vocabulary of the English language, with such phrases as that's not cricket
(10)(coined) to describe unfair behavior in general.
UNIT 6
Nowadays college education cost is rising sharply. More and more college students have to work in order to (1) (generate) income to support themselves. But how can you prevent working from (2) (interfering)with your study?
Firstly, plan your class and work (3) (schedules) as far ahead as possible. Arrange your classes in a way so that you have one or two days for work.
Secondly, use time well instead of (4) (burning) the midnight oil. Studying late until midnight may make you tired and take a(n) (5) (consistent) toll on your health. Use those 10 minutes waiting for the bus to read a few more pages. If your job has a lot of downtime (自由支配时间), use the
(6)(opportunity) to do school assignments. Never try to cut corners by copying assignments from other students.
Thirdly, set a goal for your academic performance. You'll probably have to (7) (decrease) your work hours, or even, if possible and necessary, (8)(withdraw) from the workforce to be successful in study. After all, it is not a good idea to risk (9) (compromising) your student career with part-time jobs.
Fourthly, inform all your professors, teaching assistants and employers about your situation so that they can be (10) (flexible) as well. Winning their support is the best way to keep them on your side.

对高等教育的要求越来越高，要求为学生提供更好的课程和更多的机会。为了解决这个
（1）（复杂的）问题，高校正转向互联网，以快速（2）（访问）其丰富的教育资源。现在，互联网已被公认为高等学校的（3）(首选)技术。许多教师现在经常在网上（4）（张贴）他们的教材。越来越多的学校通过互联网提供至少一些（5）（本科）课程。利用因特网进行高等教育有两种不同的模式。第一个模型（6）（寻求）通过使用因特网改进现有课程。该模式为所有学生、教师和员工提供高速互联网（7）（连接）。虽然该模型使用互联网，但它不

2011年1月，丹尼尔·埃尔南德斯在Tucson的一次大规模枪击中救了女议员嘉贝丽·吉佛斯的性命。他给她的伤口（1）（应用）压，并用（2）（温柔的）同情之词使她活着，直到医务人员赶到。他被公众（3）（赞颂）为英雄。尽管他对公共服务的奉献是（4）（非凡的），但在他的著作《他们称我为英雄：我年轻时的回忆录》中，埃尔南德斯坚持认为他不是英雄。
埃尔南德斯说，他最初拒绝写一本关于他在那一天经历巨大（5）（悲剧）的书。”他说：“事发后，我被几家出版商(6)（推）了。”我认为英雄应该是一生（7）（致力于）帮助他人的人。”然而，现在是学校董事会成员的埃尔南德斯已经意识到，他会有兴趣写一本（8）（集中）于他的公共服务的书，“作为一个年轻的官员，我面临着一些巨大的挑战，我想让年轻人知道他们需要面对挑战，并让他们（9）（参与）到自己的社区中来。”
当被问到是否有第二本书的计划时，埃尔南德斯说，他目前的主要目的是继续为社会服务，追求他作为教育（10）（倡导者）的热情。”但我不会说不，”他说。
几个世纪以来，板球在英国一直很受欢迎。无论是职业选手还是（1）（业余）选手都很喜欢。这项超级受欢迎的比赛是由11名球员组成的两队之间的球拍比赛。它可以为你提供健康的好处，如锻炼（2）（耐力），平衡和身体健康。但对于团队运动来说，板球也会让（3）（个别）球员承受不寻常的压力，因为每个团队球员都是彼此（4）（独立的)。
板球运动可能始于16世纪早期的英国。1301年爱德华王子在肯特郡纽伦登玩的一种被称为creag的游戏是书面记录（5）（现存的）的证据；（6）(尽管)不是确凿的证据，但有可能这是一种板球。到18世纪末，板球已（7）（发展）成为英国的一项全国性运动。大英帝国的发展导致板球在国外进行，到19世纪中叶，第一次国际（8）(比赛）开始举行。板球运动对英国的流行文化产生了（9）（非凡的）影响。它已经对英语词汇产生了影响，比如用“那不是板球”来（10）（创新地）描述不公平的行为。
当今大学教育成本急剧上升。越来越多的大学生为了（1）（产生）收入养活自己不得不工作。但是你怎样才能避免工作（2）（干涉）你的学习呢？
首先，尽可能提前计划你的班级和工作（3）（时间表）。安排好你的课程，这样你就有一两天的工作时间。第二，好好利用时间，不要（4）（熬夜）。学习到深夜可能会使你疲倦，并（5）（持续）对你的健康造成损害。用那10分钟等公共汽车再看几页。如果你的工作有很多停工时间，利用这个（6）（机会）做作业。不要抄其他学生的作业来偷工减料。
第三，为你的学习成绩设定一个目标。你可能不得不（7）（减少）你的工作时间，甚至，如果可能和必要的话，（8）（退出）从工作中获得成功的学习。毕竟，冒着（9）（妥协）学生事业的风险从事兼职工作不是一个好主意。
第四，向你的教授、助教和雇主通报你的情况，以便他们能（10）（灵活）。赢得他们的支持是让他们支持你的最好方法。

新视野大学英语（第三版）第二册读写教程课后答案 新视野大学英语（第三版）第二册读写教程课后答案Unit 1 Language in mission Text A An impressive English lesson Ex.1 Understanding the text 1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules. 2、The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account; however, what the student could do was only one single utterance :“whoa!” without any any specific comment. 3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language. 4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with. 5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs. 6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before. 7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary. 8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, tho ugh in two different situations and with two different feelings.

新视野Book3 汉译英翻译 Unit 1 Translate the following paragraph into English 如今，很多年轻人不再选择“稳定”的工作，他们更愿意自主创业，依靠自己的智慧和奋斗去实现自我价值。青年创业(young entrepreneurship)是未来国家经济活力的来源，创业者的成功不但会创造财富、增加就业机会、改善大家的生活，从长远来看，对于国家更是一件好事，创业者正式让中国经济升级换代的力量。尤其是在当前，国家鼓励大众创业、万众创新，在政策上给予中小企业支持，这更加激发了年轻人的创业热情。 Nowadays, many young people no longer choose“stable” jobs. Instead, they prefer to start their own businesses and realize their self-value through their own wisdom and efforts. Young entrepreneurship is the source of national economic vitality in the future. The success of entrepreneurs not only creates fortune, increases job opportunities, improves people’s life, but it is also good for the country in the long term. Entrepreneurs are a driving force in upgrading China’s economy. Especially for the time being, our country is encouraging people to start their own businesses and make innovations and giving policy support for medium and small businesses. This further arouses young people’s enthusiasm to start their own businesses. Unit 2 Translate the following paragraph into English 实现中华民族伟大复兴（rejuvenation)是近代以来中国人民最伟大的梦想，我称之为“中国梦”，其基本内涵是实现国家富强、民族振兴、人民幸福。中国梦，是让每一个积极进取的中国人形成世世代代的信念：只要经过不懈的奋斗便能获得更好的生活。人们必须通过自己的勤奋、勇气、创意和决心迈向繁荣，而不是依赖于社会和他人的援助。每个中国人都是中国梦的参与者和创造者。中国梦是民族的梦，也是每个中国人的梦。 Realizing the great national rejuvenation, which we define as the Chinese Dream, has been the greatest Chinese expectation since modern times. It basically means achieving prosperity for the country, renewal of the nation and happiness for the people, thus ensuring that every enterprising Chinese carries, generation after generation, the firm conviction that a better life is accomplished through persistent effort.

It began around the time of the Tang Dynasty, and then prospered in the Song and Yuan dynasties. With a history of over one thousand years, it has experienced constant development, improvement and perfection. The tools and materials used to create ink and wash painting, i.e. brushes, rice paper, and ink, are characteristic of Chinese culture and closely related to the features of the paintings. For example, the mixing of water and ink creates different shades of dryness, wetness, thickness and thinness. The integration and infiltration of water, ink, and rice paper enables such paintings to convey rich images, and hence to achieve unique aesthetic effects.
