In most cases, fame can also help them gain wealth. But, after all, very few people can really become famous while most people, including most artists, are unlikely to become famous.It is true that some failure for some people at certain times in their lives does motivate them to strive even harder so as to achieve final success. For example, Thomas Edison, the famous American inventor, had tried hundreds of materials before he finally found the suitable fuse for the electric bulb. However, unfortunately, for most people failure is the end of their struggle.Therefore, in my opinion, success is one thing and fame is another. As long as you have tried your best, you’re already successful whether you are famous or not.Theme-Related WritingWrite a composition of no less than 150 words on the topic "Fame —Good or Evil?〞. Your paper should cover the following points:1> the advantages of being famous2> the disadvantages of being famous3> your attitude towards fameSample essay:Fame — Good or Evil?Fame has always been pursued by many people for the advantages it brings about. Fame canassure one of a high social status, high regard, great admiration, etc. Fame can also bring one wealth as a celebrity has more chances to earn big money. Besides, the applause and flowers from fans may boost one’s self-confidence and increase one’s sense of fulfillment.However, fame can ruin one’s life, too. Itdeprives one of his privacy. As a public figure, he is often chased by fansand journalists, and his private life never escapes the media’s attention or public curiosity. Fame also places one under great pressure. He has to work in line with public expectations and thus becomes the slave of his own success.So fame is a double-edged sword. I don’t seek fame and I don’t envy those who are famous.I highly appreciate what the American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow says about fame: "The talent of success is nothing more than doing well whatever you do without a thought of fame.〞Unit FOUREnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▇Working with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

With the knowledge accumulated over generations, beings can now build and transform societies with unprecedented knowledge resources.However, there are many barriers to knowledge transfer. For example, lack of trust and resistance to change undermine the transfer of knowledge. People are less likely to acquire knowledge from those whom they don’t trust or to adopt new theories and practices they are not familiar with. Cultural and language barriers also nations or ethnic groups. It would be almostimpossible for people who speak different languages or dialects with different cultural backgrounds to communicate effecitvely, not to mention exchanging knowledge.An underdeveloped economy is another barrier to knowledge transfer. The lack of socio-economic and techno-environmental cooperation, as well as poor communications infrastructure, can greatly and between nations.To remove these barriers, people should change their attitude towards knowledge transfer and the learning of foreign languages and cultures. At the same time, efforts should be made to develop a better world economy. (190 words)The Answers to Book4---Unit4Enhance Your Language Awareness(I) Working with Words and Expressions1.

It boosts the world economy by opening global markets, smoothing the flow of capital and commodities, and increasing productivity and employment opportunities. In addition, the concerted efforts globalization motivates in areas like fighting against terrorism, environmental protection, health, and education have also contributed to the wellbeing of humanity.However, there are always voices against globalization. Some people accuse multinational corporations of providing unfair and unsafe working conditions, using cheap labour, exploiting natural resources and causing ecological damage. They also criticise globalization for not only modernizing but also westernizing native cultures. They also argue that globalization leads to the spread of epidemics and diseases.In short, globalization is a double-edged sword and we must handle it with care.

英文背诵部分第一单元英文翻译:Human beings live in the realm of nature.They are not only dwellers in nature,but also transformers of it.With the development of society and its economy,pepole tend to become less dependent on nature directly,but indirectly their dependence grows. Human beings are connected with nature by “blood ”ties.No one can live outside nature.However,the previous dynamic balance between man and nature has shown signs of breaking down .Problems such as the population explosion,ecological imbalance and the shortage of natural resources has become major factors keeping human society from being further developed.Professor Spirkin holds that the only choice for human being is the wise organization of production and care for Mother Nature.第二单元英文翻译:Nowadays,many people are enjoying the benefits brought about by material and technological advances unimaginable in previous eras.With the development of science and technology,people’s standard of living is getting higher and higher.People’s life expectancy has soared,too.However,oddly enough,many peopke do not feek happier than they used to be.Itcan be seen that there is no close correlation beween people’s income and their happiness.Happiness cannot,after all,be bought with money.Although the majority of people are not very satisfied with their lives,they are happy to be alive,and the more time they get on earth,the better off they feel they’ll be.What is important is that material wealth is far from enough.People need spiritual happiness,too.第三单元英文翻译:We all known that knowledge is power but we are seldom aware of how difficult knowledge transfer is.According to Victoria Griffith,there are many barriers to knowledge transfer and lack of trust is one of the major ones.It seems to her that people are only willing to absorb knowledge readily from those they know and trust.For example,in the early 17th century,Galileo argued that the earth and other planets move around the sun,but this knowledge was rejected by the general population at that time because the Italians over three hundred years ago trusted the Roman Churchmore than they trusted science.What was worse,Galileo had to spend the rest of his life under house arrest for his ideas.Victoria Griffith reminds us thar knowledge transfer is still a tough problem although we are living in the “knowledge era”.第四单元英文翻译:Some people think that they’ve fulfilled their tasks as long as they go on duty and come off duty on time.They never think about what is meant by “work”and why they should work at all.In fact,”work”involves such qualities as wisdom, enthusiasm, imagination and creativity.To do his work well,a worker mudt have a spirit of dedication,and be capable of bearing harships and standing hard work.In addition,he should have initiative and creativity.Having initiative means the worker should be ready to grasp every opportunity to display his outstanding ability.In affition,a worker should make clear the nature and significance of the work he does,be responsible for whatever he isdoing and plunge himself into the work with vigorous enthusiasm.If he can do so,he will find a job no longer a burden but an indispensable part of his life.Whatever he does,he can always find values and pleasure in the work and achieve extraordinary results in otherwise ordinary work.第五单元英文翻译:Many people want to be famous because fame can bring them both honor and respectfrom the public.In most cases,fame can also help them gain wealth.But,after all,very few people can really become famous while most people,including most artists,are unlikely to become famous.It is true that some failure for some people at certain times in their loves does motivate them to strive even harder so as to achieve final success.For example,Thomas Edison,thefamous American inventor,had tried hundreds of materials before he finally found the suitable fuse for the electric bulb. However, unfortunately, for most people failure is rhe end of their struggle.Therefore,in my opinion,success is one thing and fame is another. As long as youhave tried your best,you’re already successful whether you are famous or not.第六单元英文翻译:What is truth?Truth is the correct reflection of people’s knowledge about the objective world and its laws.Truth makes people full of hope and life full of brilliance and glory.Thereforek,many people regardd the pursuit of truth as the ultimate goal of their lives.In human history,many people devoted their lives to the pursuit of truth and made outstanding contributions to mankind.Truth is both absolute and relative.We say that truth is absolute because truth can objectively reflect the essentials of things. However, any truth is but people’s correct understanding of the development of things at a certain stage. Therefore,truth is relative and develops constantly.Sometimes,the brilliance of truth may seem beyond their reach. In fact,it is close at hand.We can find truth as long as we keep pursuing it heart and soul.。
