He told me that from his own experience the decision makers who interview prospective employees like people who are well prepared.

For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton. In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel. He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death. Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.UNIT6V ocabularyI.1. appliances;2. comparative;3. multiply;4. distribution;5. prosperity;6. decorate;7. famine;8. large quantities of/a large quantity of9. streamline; 10. fax; 11. pointed the way to; 12. bewildered;1. eat into;2. cling to;3. stand out/stood out;4. wears away;5. set about;6. switch off;7. will be turned loose;8. poured in;16.is forecast to be below average next year, which at the moment is 4 percent17.to enter the building and find the baby girl proved futile as rescuers were driven out by theheat and flames18.was urged to divert some of its attention from expanding production and get more involvedwith issues of market demand.19.can really eat heavily into your profits when you are selling suits at￡900 and dresses at￡2,00020.has toiled endlessly over the exercise machine for the last twenty years in order to keep herbody in shape1. reaction to; discontent; provoked;2.

Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well/good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families. It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.

The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of choking dust blotted out the sun. Horror-stricken people ran in all directions, crying and screaming.Now, many years after that tragic event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the old one. In the town square, a memorial has been built to remember those killed in the disaster.

He said he had found it on the curbwhen he hopped off his school bus.2.Last Wednesday, my classmate Caroline and I visited Zhouzhuang, a well-known town looped all around by streams. When we arrived at the town, Caroline was so excited that she darted towards the first bridge she saw and began singing loudly there. Suddenly her voice hushed when she found that she had startled a flock of ducks not too far from us. Now as Caroline was dying for a boat ride, we decide to tour the town by boat. Now loud, now soft, Caroline talked to all the creatures in the stream and was fussing about everything while I looked at the boats gliding over the water in silence. Though we did not see anything spectacular, we enjoyed every minute in the town that lies out of the range of the heavy traffic and noise of the large city.Zhouzhuang is worth visiting and, time permitting, I’d like to go there again.。

The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. Luckly enough,thanks to the severe cold weather which made the marsh froze over, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle.The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Part III TextBComprehension Check 1. d3. b.-2.d 4.Translation(#JE Appendix III)Language Practice1. boast2. obstacles3. was concerned4. call ...off■5. paid off6. was pinneddown7. are contesting 8. prior to9. holdout 10. objective11. responsible for 12. in case13. favorable 14. due to15. on the eve of 16. cancel17. complications 18. stiff19. withstand 20. absentPart IV Theme-Related Language Learning TasksWriting StrategyTick which of the following is more convincing:____________ I t was reported that General Eisenhower, though indecisive sometimes, had nohesitation in ordering the assault on Normandy._____ √____ E isenhower's chief of staff, Brigadier General Water Bedell Smith, later wrote:"...

One thinks of successes in medicine in the fight against disease, such as the invention of antibiotics and the promise held out by advances in biogenetic engineering. On a broader scale, one thinks of man's success in harnessing new forms of energy from steam power through oil to nuclear power.Yet, nature has often hit back in unexpected ways to these attempts to tame it. New forms of-disease that are resistant to antibiotics are constantly developing. Burning fossil fuels has led to fears of global warming; while nuclear power has produced dangerous waste that will remain a hazard for generations to come.However, perhaps to talk of man triumphing over nature is the wrong way to look at the matter. We need to find ways to work with nature rather than forever fighting against it.(154 words)Unit 2Text org. Ex. 2 On P381. Smart cars can see, hear, feel, smell, talk, and act;2.

Lucky enough, thanks to the severely cold weather which made the marshland freeze over, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Unit 2 Smart CarsText A:VocabularyI.1. 1) expansion 2) automated 3) vapor 4) take control of 5) hazards 6) satellite 7) vibrated 8) magnetic9) bunched 10) in the air11) got/was stuck in 12) approximately2.1) send out 2) stand up for3) pass for 4) were closing in on5) starting up 6) went through7) fill out 8) fall into3. 1) …incorporates all the latest safety features.2) …two trees ten feet apart.3) …awarding lucrative contracts to his construction firm.4) …the prototype of a new model before they set up a factory to make the cars.5) …are correlated in all racial groups.4. 1) the application, remote, has turned into a reality, are poised to2) that vibrate, can detect, frequency23) lanes, are mounted in, alert a, hazardII.kilogram medical carememorandum electronic mailgymnasium communications satelliteliberation news broadcastdoctor sky hijackveterinarian European dollarpreparatory breakfast and lunchautomobile television broadcastinfluenza Oxford and CambridgeIII.1. swimming pool2. drawing board3. enriched Middle English4. disturbing change5. fully developed prototype6.

However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents. For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine. They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce your chances of getting stuck in traffic jams.Unit 3 Job InterviewText A:VocabularyI.1. 1) rude 2) physically 3) structure 4) made a difference 5) blurted (out) 6) chuckling 7) measurable 8) prospective9) preparations 10) sparkled11) took a crack at 12) partner2.1) go after 2) look back at/on3) be put up 4) stood for5) build in 6) follow up7) be hooked up to 8) closed up3. 1) …grilled her about where she had been all night.2) …beyond Cinderella’s wildest dreams that she could one day dance in the King’s palace.3) …will be in readers’ hands soon.4) …do your homework before going on an interview.5) …was in the neighborhood of 150 dollars.4. 1) applicants, veteran, the prospective2) From his standpoint, has made every endeavor to go after3) as the saying goes, to have a crack at, barelyII.1.behave2.keep (used to avoid repetition)3.clean4.get along5.perform/complete6.perform/complete7.study 8.be enough9.be acceptableIII.1.

It was the 100th anniversary of Einstein’s theory of relativity and the 50th anniversary of his death. In 1905, Einstein published five highly important essays in the history of science, thus revolutionizing physics. His great achievements can be credited to his impressive powers of imagination, constant questioning, and not giving a fig for authority. It is beyond doubt that Einstein was the greatest scientist in the 20th century.。

Everyso often, one of thosemagazi nes wouldrun an articl e on the“Car of the Future”. They featur ed unconv entio nal things like smallnuclea r reacto rs反应堆 as powersource s. Yet, frankl y, my car doesn’t do anythi ng that my brothe r’s Studeb akerdidn’t do. It goes, it stops, it burnsgas oli ne. I stillhave to steerit, and it stillruns into things if I don’t steerit carefu lly.But guesswhat? All of thesethings are likely to change in the not-so-distan t future. It may not burn gasoli ne, I may not have to steer it, and it may be a lot better at not runnin g into things.Airbag s aren’t the be-all and end-all in safety. In fact, consid eri ng the recent news aboutpeople occasi onall y beingkilled by theirairbag s in low-speedcollis ions（碰撞), they obviou sly stillneed some develo pment. But they aren’t go ingaway, and in fact, you can expect to see cars appear ing with add iti onal, side-impact airbag s, someth ing some Europe an car manufa cturers alread y offer.Better than system s to minimi ze（使减少到最低限度） injury in the eventof an accide nt ,howeve r, are system s that m inimi ze the likeli hoodof an accide nt happen ing. Future cars may be able to remove many of the majorcauses of accide nts, includ ing drun k-drivin g, and tailga ting. Cars couldbe equipp ed with sensor s that can detect alcoho l in a driver’s system and preven t the car from b eingstarte d, for exampl e. As earlyas next year, you’ll be able to buy cars with radar-equipp ed contro l system s. If the radardeterm in esyou’re closin g too quickl y with the car in front, it will ease u p on the thrott le .Will cars eventu allybe able to drivethemse lves? There’s no reason to thinkit won’t be techni cally possib le, and Merced es is workin g on a system that can brake, accele rateand steera vehicl e down a h ighwa y on its own. Nobody really expect s people to give up all control to theircars, but such system s couldbe used as failsa fe system s to keep cars on the road and bringthem safely to a stop even if the driver sudden ly became disabl ed.71.Why was the author fascin atedby cars becaus e _______.A. othersmallboys likedto own a car of theirown, too.B. he read unconv entio nal things aboutcars in his brothe r’s magazi nes.C. his oldest brothe r lovedto take him to places in his car.D. he subscr ibedto cool car magazi nes.72.By saying "my car doesn’t do anythi ng that my brothe r’s Studeb a kerdidn’t do", the authormeansthat_____.A. my car is far better than my brothe r’sB. my car is not as go od as my brothe r’sC. not much has change d in the perfor mance of cars so farD. much improv ement has been made in the design of cars recent ly73. Whichof the follow ing statem entsis true of airbag s?A. They are in need of furthe r improv ement.B. They are goingto disapp ear gradua lly.C. They kill people instea d of protec tingthem in low-speedcollis io ns.D. They are a standa rd featur e of Europe an cars.74.Accord ing to the author, what will future cars do if the sensor s det ect alcoho l in the driver's system?A. They will give a warnin g in advanc e.B. They will brakeautoma tical ly.C. They will ease up on the thrott le.D. They will not start.75.Whichof the follow ing statem entsis true accord ing to the last para gr aph?A. People will give up all contro l to theircarsB. Cars will be able to drivethemse lves.C. No cars will ever breakdown on the roads.D. Cars will all be equipp ed with failsa fe system.答案：BCADBU5 TO U8I studypoliti cal violen ce暴力for a living, yet I, too, am shaken and unsure how to react.As I sit here todayin my office, only a few milesfrom the still-burnin g Pentag on, images of the slaugh ter屠杀in my native New York domina te统治my though ts.

Thus, we -- all of us -- are the real target s of this attack. This explai ns why many of us, even thoseof us who were not near the attack s, or who knew no one affect ed by them, felt this traged y so deeply.Yet we must not succum b屈从 to fear, for if we do the terror istshave won. Surely our liveswill be differ ent now. We may be more aware, more inconv enien ced不方便,more insecu re不安全.

Our troops engaging the enemy at the front were faced with strong/fierce/stiff resistance. The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. T o do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degreesCelsius and the marsh froze over.Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle.The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Unit21) There was an unusual quietness in the air, except for the sound of artillery in the distance.2) The expansion of urban areas in some African countries has been causinga significant fall in living standards and an increase in social problems.3) The research shows that atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are closely correlated with global temperatures.4) The frequency of the bus service has been improved from 15 to 12 minute recently.5) The diver stood on the edge of the diving board, poised to jump at the signal from the coach.Translation : Ex. 2 on P48Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the way people live, travel, and dobusiness. On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities. However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents. For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine. They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce yourchances of getting stuck in traffic jams.UNIT3Translation on P81-821) Despite the inadequate length of the airstrip in thisemergency landing, the veteran pilot managed to stop theplane after taxiing for only a short while.2)Grilled by the reporters, the movie star eventually blurted(out) that she had undergone two plastic surgeries.3) We have the technology and our partner has the capital.Working together, we’ll have the future in our hands.4) If I had known beforehand that you would bring so manyfriends home, I would have made better preparations.

One thinks of successes in medicine in the fight against disease, such as the invention of antibiotics and the promise held out by advances in biogenetic engineering. On a broader scale, one thinks of man's success in harnessing new forms of energy from steam power through oil to nuclear power.Yet, nature has often hit back in unexpected ways to these attempts to tame it. New forms ofAppendix I - 98-disease that are resistant to antibiotics are constantly developing. Burning fossil fuels has led to fears of global warming; while nuclear power has produced dangerous waste that will remain a hazard for generations to come.However, perhaps to talk of man triumphing over nature is the wrong way to look at the matter. We need to find ways to work with nature rather than forever fighting against it.(154 words)Unit 2Text org. Ex. 2 On P381. Smart cars can see, hear, feel, smell, talk, and act;2.

新编大学英语第二版第四册第三课练习答案 Post-Reading 1. Understanding the Organization of the Text 1) Introduction (para 1) It has been proven repeatedly that the various types of behavior, emotions, and interests that constitute being masculine and feminine are patterned by both heredity and culture. 2) There is a cultural bias in education that favors boys over girls. (para. 2-4) Supporting evidence A. Teachers called on males in class far more than on female students. (para 2) i) Its consequence: This has a tremendous impact on the learning process. ii) The reason for this: Active classroom participants develop more positive attitudes and go on to higher achievement. iii) Two examples: a. In many of the former all-women’s colleges, the boys were taking over the class-room discussions and active participation by women students had diminished noticeably. b. A similar subordination of female to male students has also been observed in law and medical school classrooms in recent years. B. Teachers assigned boys and girls different tasks according to stereotyped gender roles. (para. 3) i) Its consequence: This prevented girls from participating as actively as boys in class. ii) An example: A teacher had the little boys perform the scientific experiment while the girls were given the task of putting the materials away. C. Gender-biased education is also reflected in the typical American teacher’ assumption. (para 4) i) The assumption: Boys will do better in the hard, masculine subjects of math and science while girls are expected to have better verbal and reading skills. ii) Three examples: a. American boys do develop reading problems, while girls, who are superior to boys in math up to the age of nine, fall behind from then on. b. In Germany, all studies are considered masculine and it is girls who develop reading problems. c. In Japan, where early education appears to be nonsexist, both girls and boys do equally well in reading. 3) The educational bias begins at home. (para 5) A. Supporting evidence: i) Boy preschoolers were permitted to go away from home in a much wider area than girl preschoolers. ii) Boys were encouraged to develop intellectual curiosity and physical skills, while girls are filled with fears of the world outside the home and with the desire to be approved of for their goodness and obedience to rules. B. The consequence when these lessons carry over from the home to the classroom: Girls are generally observed to be more dependent on the teacher, more concerned with the form and neatness of their work than its content, and more anxious about being right in their answers than in being intellectually independent, analytical, or original. C. Conclusion: Through the educational process that occupies most of the child’s waking hours, society reinforces its established values and turns out each sex in its traditional and expected mold.
