New year’s resolutions are often like that. We make resolutions because we know it would be better for us to lose weight, or get fit, or spend more time with our children. The problem is that a resolution is generally easier to break than it is to keep.—Peter SingerNo one’s ever achieved financial fitness with a January resolution that’s abandoned by February.—Suze OrmanI have no way of knowing how people really feel, but the vast majority of those I meet couldn’t be nicer. Every once in a while someone barks at me. My New Year’s resolution is not to bark back.—Tucker CarlsonMy New Year’s Resolution List usually starts with the desire to lose between ten and three thousand pounds.—Nia V ardalosIf you asked me for my New Year Resolution, it would be to find out who I am.—Cyril CusackMay all your troubles last as long as your New Year’s resolutions.—Joey AdamsI think in terms of the day’s resolutions, not the years’.—Henry MooreMaking resolutions is a cleansing ritual of self assessment and repentance that demands personal honesty and, ultimately, reinforces humility. Breaking them is part of the cycle.—Eric ZornI made no resolutions for the New Year. The habit of making plans, of criticizing, sanctioning and molding my life, is too much of a daily event for me.—Anaïs NinText I1.Pre-Reading QuestionsThe hero of the story, who is married and has four children, is talking about his New Year’s Resolution in the text. In the first paragraph, he says “This year it’s going to be different”. Why does he say so? What sort of resolutions did he make in the previous years? How do his New Year’s resolutions for this year differ from previous ones? Make a few guesses.For your reference:When a person makes New Year’s resolutions, he makes up his mind to do or not to do certain things in the coming year. Of course, different people make different New Year’s resolutions. For example, a student may decide to work harder at his studies and not go to the cinema so often;a teacher may decide to improve his/her teaching; a heavy smoker may decide to stop smoking altogether. Some people may be able to carry out their New Year’s resolutions, but some may not. For most people, it’s often easier to make New Year’s resolutions than to carry them out.2.General ReadingYou are given five minutes to read the text rapidly once to get the main idea.Now decide which of the following statements best sums up the main idea. Put a tick by it.__ 1. Some of his family members were pleased while others were not when the writer tried to please everybody in the family on New Year’s Day.__ 2. The writer tried to be a better husband and a better father in the new year, and his family members appreciated this.√ 3. The writer carried out his New Year’s resolutions faithfully to improve himself, but the results all went contrary to his expectations.Key（点击答案按钮，上述第三句前面横线上出现√）3.Background Notes(1) escapement（卡子，擒纵机）An escapement is a device in mechanical watches and clocks that transfers energy to the timekeeping element and allows the number of its oscillations（振荡，振动）to be counted. The escapement is driven by force from a coiled卷spring弹簧or a suspended悬挂暂停weight, transmitted through the timepiece’s时钟座钟gear 齿轮排挡train. The amount of stored energy, energy loss and efficiency of transfer to the timekeeping element determines the time a clock will run after it has been wound.(2) small talkSmall talk is meaningless conversation in terms of content, but is often seen as socially important in certain situations, or context. In many English-speaking countries, it can be viewed as rude or unfriendly not to participate in it. Non-personal comments about non-controversial subjects are usually considered as appropriate for this type of conversation.4.TextThis Y ear It’s Going to Be Different(1)New Year’s resolutions are like anything else —you get out of them what you put in. Judging from results of other years, I had never put enough in, but this year was going to be different. I read books on self-improvement before I wrote my list. Find some beauty in everything. ... Make the other fellow feel important. ... About thirty like that. Pretty clearly, (2)anyone who followed my collection of rules would be blessed with a richer life, (1)boundless 无穷的无限的love from his family, and the admiration of the community. I could hardly wait until New Year’s Day.When I came downstairs Maggie, my wife, was at the kitchen sink水池. I (2)tiptoed over踮着脚尖走and kissed her on the back of the neck. (Resolution No.1: Be (3)spontaneous自发的无意识的自然的in showing affection.) She (4)shrieked尖叫and dropped a cup. “Don’t ever (5)sneak up悄悄来临鬼鬼祟祟on me like that again!” she cried.“You’re looking lovely this morning,” I said. (A sincere (6)compliment称赞恭维is worth its weight in gold.)(3)“Look,” she said, “it wasn’t my idea to stay out until four a.m.”I took some aspirin and coffee into the living room. I’d just started reading the paper when Sammy, our five-year-old, came in. He was wearing the watch he’d received for Christmas.(4)“Say, Dad,” he said, “what makes a watch run?”In the old days I would have told him to ask his mother. Instead, I got a pencil and drew a (7)sketch草图素描of the escapement (8)mechanism结构机械装置机能. (Always encourage your child’s curiosity.) It took about fifteen minutes, and Sammy wandered off several times, but I kept calling him back. “There,” I said, “that’s what makes your watch run.”(5)“Then how come it doesn’t?” he asked.His brother Roy walked by. “You have to wind上发条it,” said Roy. Sammy wound it and held it to his ear. He smiled. “Roy sure is smart,” he said.Our daughter Gretchen came in with her doll, Mrs. Robinson. “Good morning, Gretchen,” I said. “Happy New Year, Mrs. Robinson.” (Meet your child at his own level.)(6)“It isn’t either happy,” said Gretchen. “Mrs. Robinson is sick. Probably a coronary冠状动脉血栓形成.”“Why don’t you take her to see Dr. Sammy?” I suggested. “He can use his new doctor’s kit.”The phone rang, and I answered it. It was a friend of our daughter Kit. “Happy New Year, Marilyn,”I said. “What have you been doing over the holidays?”(Show an interest in your children’s friends.) She said she hadn’t been doing anything much. “(7)Come now, a pretty girl like you,”I said (9)jovially—(8)“I’ll bet the fellows are(10)swarming蜂群挤满涌往around.… What’s that? Yes, of course you can speak to Kit. Certainly.”Kit was in her room with the record player going very loud, I (11)rapped敲击on the door. She called out something, and I went in. She was in her pajamas睡衣裤. “I didn’t say you could come in!” she (12)yelled, grabbing抓住a robe睡袍and holding it in front of her. At fourteen, she has become extremely aware of being female.“I’m sorry. I couldn’t understand you,” I said apologetically. To ease the situation, I picked up her (13)brand-new全新的sweater毛衣运动衫from the floor and put it over a chair.“I was going to pick it up,” she said defensively, “You don’t always put your things away.”There was a series of shrieks down the hall. I found Gretchen in tears. Roy and Sammy were about to perform open-heart surgery外科手术on Mrs. Robinson with a scou搜索侦察跟踪t knife. “She told us Mrs. Robinson was sick,” Roy said.(9)I suggested that they carve切雕something for their mother —like a salad spoon. (Encourage creativity in the young.)In the kitchen, Maggie wanted to know what was wrong with Gretchen. “Mrs. Robinson had a coronary,” I told her.“I know you’re not feeling your best after last night,” she said, “but I’m getting a little tired of these smart remarks. Would you mind taking the garbage out?”“I’d be happy to,” I said. (The most (14)trivial琐碎的平常的(15)chore零星工作令人讨厌的工作can prove rewarding if approached with (16)zest热情兴趣.)“Do you have to be so (17)sarcastic讽刺的挖苦的?” she said.It seemed that my resolutions weren’t working the way the books had said. I didn’t quit, though. I helped the boys build a snowman —only Sammy got his feet wet and Roy lost his mittens露指手套and they went inside. I played jacks玩游戏with Gretchen, but she said I didn’t do it right. I (18)struck up 开始a conversation with Kit, trying to establish some kind of (19)rapport友好关系融洽和谐. I touched on hippies, pop music, dating, (20)morality and so on. She contributed very little. Anybody else (10)would have thrown in the sponge, but I kept trying. For example, Maggie always (21)dreads 害怕担心taking down拿取the Christmas tree, so I thought I’d do it for her. (Take over接管帮忙one of your wife’s chores, she’ll love you for it.)I was about two thirds done when Maggie came in. “Oh, no!” she cried. “I wanted it left up for the party tonight. Can’t you just sit and watch a football game, please? It’s what you usually do on New Year’s.”“This year is different,” I said.“Yes, isn’t it?” She shook her head. “I swear I don’t know. The kids have been impossible all day. I found the boys (22)whittling切削on my best salad spoon, and then (12)they had the nerve to say you suggested it. And Kit has been (12)in a poisonous mood. She said that Marilyn phoned and you didn’t tell her. And that you (23)cross-examined盘问Marilyn about her boyfriends.”(13)“Hold it!”I said. “I was only making small talk.”By now the kids were in the room, drawn by the commotion混乱喧闹.“You never bothered with small talk before. Why start now?”“Because it’s New Year’s,” I said. I explained to the assembled gathering about the books and the resolutions and what I’d been trying to accomplish. Silence. The kids stood there looking uneasily at each other. “A man wants to improve himself,” I said. “He wants to be a better husband, a better father —”“We all want to be better,” Maggie said. “Except that when you’re so considerate it doesn’t seem natural. (14)If the kids do something and you get mad, they know where they stand.But when you’re so (24)even-tempered性情平和的沉重的稳重的—”“Yeah,”Kit said. “You didn’t say a word about my clothes on the floor. You just smiled.(15)It made me sick.”Roy said, “(16)I been in more trouble today.…”Gretchen said, “I think it was better when you didn’t play jacks.”“(17)And yelled,” Sammy said, “and said ‘damitall（damn it all 口语表达愤怒的方式）’.”“All right,” I (25)snarled咆哮吠, “I make every effort to be a good father, and this is the thanks I get. The fact is, you don’t deserve the father you’ve got.”I was illustrating 说明表明my points with gestures. “You’re the ones who’d better start making resolutions. Like doing your homework, cleaning your rooms, (18)letting the spoons alone. And when I tell you to do something,(19) jump!”I reached out to steady a lamp I had brushed with my sleeve. “Furthermore —”At this moment, I realized suddenly that the atmosphere had changed. The kids were sprawled四肢伸展坐着on the floor, relaxed. I turned to Maggie.“Why is everybody smiling? What’s the big joke?”“No joke,” she said. “We’re just happy to have you back again.”Words and phrases: (点击文中红色单词或词组，出现该红色部分及e.g.字样，再单击e.g. ，出现例句)(1) boundless: a. having no limit or ende.g. Have you ever experienced a time in your life when you have boundless energy?The Internet occupies little space and has a boundless storing capacity.(2) tiptoe:v. walk quietly and carefully on your toes, so that nobody hears youe.g. He tiptoed quietly around the house to avoid waking the children.The constitutional right to bear arms is seen by many Americans as set in stone, andeven after mass shootings, politicians have tiptoed around specific steps.(3) spontaneous:a. not planned or organized, but happening by itself, self-generatede.g. Both sides burst into spontaneous cheers at the magician’s skillful tricks.The activities may be spontaneous or at the suggestion of the teacher.(4) shriek:v. make a very high loud sound, especially because one is afraid, angry, excited, or inpaine.g. Everyone is shrieking with excitement and jumping up and down.People sometimes shriek because of terror, anger, or pain.(5) sneak:v. go somewhere secretly and quietly in order to avoid being seen or hearde.g. How did you sneak off in the middle of the meeting without being noticed?His son grabbed his running shoes and sneaked out this morning.(6) compliment:n. a remark that shows one admires someone or somethinge.g. Receiving a compliment can lead to a great friendship or help a day be better.They have discovered that the same area of the brain is activated when a person isrewarded a compliment or cash.(7) sketch:n. a simple, quickly-made drawing that does not show much detaile.g. The sketch should be centered horizontally on the canvas.With this program you can get not just black and white sketch, but a color picture.(8) mechanism:n. part of a machine or a set of parts that does a particular jobe.g. Removing the hands from a battery-operated clock mechanism is an easy job that requiresno special tools.A regenerative brake is an energy recovery mechanism which slows a vehicle or objectdown by converting its kinetic energy into another form.(9) jovially:adj. happilye.g. He also resumed smoking, jovially asking an interviewer what he would do if he only hada month to live.The girl was feeling very insignificant when she heard someone laughing jovially behind her.(10) swarm:v. go to a place as a large, uncontrolled groupe.g. By midday skiers will swarm over the slopes of this popular winter resort.The passionate students swarm into the auditorium to attend a lecture by the celebratedprofessor of Cambridge University.(11) rap:v. hit or knock something quickly several timese.g. He rapped sharply on his son’s head with his knuckles.He shouted and rapped with his walking stick on the door.(12) yell:v. shout or say something very loudly, especially because one is frightened, angry, orexcitede.g. If you ask children how they feel about being yelled at, they will all tell you they don’tlike it.He yelled out the wrong answer in class and now he looks like a moron.(13) brand-new: a. new and not yet usede.g. Waving in the day of snow, we greeted a brand-new year again.More importantly, users will enjoy a brand-new experience while interacting togetheron the multi-touch table.(14) trivial:a. not serious, important, or valuablee.g. Please don’t omit any details, no matter how trivial they may seem.Cool down!

1 Every night for weeks, the priests gave sermons, and people sang songs in praise of God, worshipped God and shouted for joy. Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly.2 The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation. His speech was marvellously regular and melodious; it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain, grief and suffering, loud and happy as well as lonely cries, and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die.3 The whole building shook with all the praying and singing.4 All the people attending church service prayed only for me; their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering.5The whole church became a sea of great joy.6When everything became quiet again, during a respectful silence, which was broken only by several people saying “Amen”extremely joyfully and happily, all the children were given blessings by the minister in the name of God.Unit41 I argue plainly that making marks in a book is not something done to spoil it but to show its worth and value.2 Getting the book by payment is merely a preparatory step on the way to ownership.3 Only when you have fully absorbed it can you say that you own the book completely.4 The third kind of book owners possess only a few or many books, but every one of them is worn, with the corners of the leaves folded over, and has become less tightly bound because of constant use. There are marks and informally written notes in each book from cover to cover.5 I would never mark pages of a first edition copy of Paradise Lost, just as I would not give my baby a set of coloured pencils and a painting by Rembrandt in the original.6 If the elaborate cover, style of printing or layout prevent you from marking up a book, then you'd better buy a cheap edition in which you can show your respect to the writer (i.e., by writing notes in it).7 If you write notes in the book yourself, the words and sentences will stand out more distinctly in your mind and last longer in your memory.8 Don't believe that a reader is only expected to take in passively what is in the book(i.e., the reader should also contribute).9 Comprehension is a process involving both reception and production. If you remain a container ready only to receive, you cannot expect to learn very much.1 The ground looked black because it was covered with numerous black ants. These vigorous, strong and powerful ants, without paying any attention to the boy, were moving quickly towards the wounded buck which was struggling helplessly. The ants looked like brightly shining black water running through the grass.2 Just as he took a breath, feeling pity for the buck and somehow afraid, the buck was no longer on its feet and became silent.3 He looked closely at the twisting body of the buck covered with black ants; its only movement now was short, quick twitches.4 The thought well expressed his growing feeling of anger and unhappiness, and objection to what was happening.5 Near him the ants were gradually going home in small groups with bits of pink meat in their mouths and there was in the air a sharp fresh smell, that of blood and fresh raw flesh.6 People might think the buck had been lying there for years, if there had not been scraps of pink meat on the white bone.7 The buck, walking around happily and proudly with its beautiful white tail swishing from side to side, had breathed in and smelt the cold morning air.Unit91 The mothers had already learned the news before their sons could stammer it out.2 The news spread from one brush house to another and continued to travel fast into the town.3 When the doctor realized that Kino was the man who had asked for his help, he became both serious (about the treatment) and wise ／clever (about how he could gain).4 For a moment the doctor's eyes were focussed on nothing as his thoughts turned to Paris.5 The news caused a profound “negative force”to be at work in the town. This could be compared to a scorpion, which causes pain, or the hunger created by the smell of food, or feeling of loneliness which comes when love is refused.6 What acted as the “venom producing bag”of the town, i.e., the increasing selfinterest in the townspeople, began to create poison which afflicted the whole town with a negative force.1 He gives us not what is happening outside himself but the deepest, most essential expression of himself as a person and member of the human race.2 If a composer wants to be in any way a great artist, he must have his own individuality. This may be very important or not important at all but as far as significant music is concerned, it will reflect that individuality.3 His personality may include many human weaknesses, as did Lully's and Wagner's, but excellence in his music will still stem from those aspects of his personality which are excellent.4 A composer's style is formed from the interrelationship between his personality and his own period.5 There is no need to argue about the part that an interpreter plays.6 Most contemporary first class musicians have instruments which are very satisfactory for them to meet any challenge in a composition.7 The musical notation cannot be the exact transcription of a composer's thought both because it is ambiguous and because it provides freedom for personal taste and choice.8 The joint efforts of composer and interpreter have significance only when they are appreciated by listeners who understand music.(or, Whether the joint efforts of composer and interpreter have meaning or not depends on whether they are understood by a number of sensible listeners.)9 That shows that the listener is duty bound to fully appreciate or understand music.10 By that piece of wit, he undoubtedly wanted to suggest that only when a listener becomes truly concerned about music will he be of interest and value both to music and its composers.Unit81We learn from the astronauts that if we look “down”from space, we will find the most conspicuous ／outstanding characteristic of Earth to be the thick layer of ice which is Antarctica, which sends light overthe southernmost part of the southern hemisphere.2One hundred and sixty years ago, however, nobody had ever seen this enormous continent, and had certainly not walked on it. Even today whether we can occupy it or not is still uncertain. Further, we know relatively little about it.3The differences between the Arctic and the Antarctic are greater than the similarities. (or, There are more differences than similarities between the Arctic and Antarctic.) The Arctic is tightly surrounded by the continents of Europe, America and Asia where there are permanent populations; whereas the Antarctic is unconnected to anywhere else, separated from the nearest land by vast areas of the world's roughest seas.4Under such conditions, a person could only stand for a few seconds, and that was by leaning forward to form an angle of 45°with the ground.5It is not surprising that although man did not hesitate to explore and take possession of most of the earth in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the continent in the far south was left untouched.ⅣTranslation1 I can't drive a car, let alone fly an airplane.2 The Arctic is populated with people of different nationalities. (TheAntarctic, in contrast,) has no permanent residents because the climate there is unfavourable to human survival.3Although she felt like a normal person after the heart surgery, the doctor insisted that she should go to the hospital for examination every other day.4Small wonder they lost the games time and again; they had been out of training for quite some time.5I am inclined to think that there will be strong opposition to our reform plan among quite many board members.6The employees of the company at all levels think of their new manager as far sighted, resourceful and highly competitive.7No matter who he is or where he is from, we cannot condone anyone's behaviour that is injurious to social order.8Those who claimed to have set eyes on the mysterious savage in the forest all affirmed that the most distinctive feature of the savage was its huge size.9As regards the quality of the drinking water on that small island, the explorers who set foot on the island reported that it was sweet, pleasant and refreshing.10As far as the business profits are concerned, the main drawback of the publication of academic treatises is that they usually do not sell well, with an average number of only several hundred copies foreach printing.。

《新编大学英语》第4册课内及课后答案-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company One1Unit 1享受幽默—什么东西令人开怀？1 听了一个有趣的故事会发笑、很开心，古今中外都一样。

这一现象或许同语言本身一样悠久。

那么，到底是什么东西会使一个故事或笑话让人感到滑稽可笑的呢？2 我是第一次辨识出幽默便喜欢上它的人，因此我曾试图跟学生议论和探讨幽默。

这些学生文化差异很大，有来自拉丁美洲的，也有来自中国的。

我还认真地思考过一些滑稽有趣的故事。

这么做完全是出于自己的喜好。

3 为什么听我讲完一个笑话后，班上有些学生会笑得前仰后合，而其他学生看上去就像刚听我读了天气预报一样呢？显然，有些人对幽默比别人更敏感。

而且，我们也发现有的人很善于讲笑话，而有的人要想说一点有趣的事却要费好大的劲。

我们都听人说过这样的话：“我喜欢笑话，但我讲不好，也总是记不住。

”有些人比别人更有幽默感，就像有些人更具有音乐、数学之类的才能一样。

一个真正风趣的人在任何场合都有笑话可讲，而且讲了一个笑话，就会从他记忆里引出一连串的笑话。

一个缺乏幽默感的人不可能成为一群人中最受欢迎的人。

一个真正有幽默感的人不仅受人喜爱，而且在任何聚会上也往往是人们注意的焦点。

这么说是有道理的。

4 甚至有些动物也具有幽默感。

我岳母从前经常来我们家，并能住上很长一段时间。

通常她不喜欢狗，但却很喜欢布利茨恩—我们养过的一条拉布拉多母猎犬。

而且，她们的这种喜欢是相互的。

布利茨恩在很小的时候就常常戏弄外祖母，当外祖母坐在起居室里她最喜欢的那张舒适的椅子上时，布利茨恩就故意把她卧室里的一只拖鞋叼到起居室，并在外祖母刚好够不到的地方蹦来跳去，一直逗到外祖母忍不住站起来去拿那只拖鞋。

with Gretchen build a snowman for the boys and strike up a conversation with Kit But the result in every case proved to be just the opposite to what he had expected The writer behaved like a changed

2TEXT ⅠComprehensionAnswers for referenceA 1 English has now become one of the most widely used languages in the world In 1500 English was an insignificant language spoken by the people living on a small island Now it is spoken as the first language by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second language by many millions more When people speak English we may be able to tell which English it isAmerican English Australian English British English Indian English and so on Besides for different purposes we use different Englishes everyday English business English commercial English diplomatic English medical English scientific English technical English legal English journalistic English and so on We also use different degrees of formality and can differentiate between formal English informal English and colloquial English2 Style expresses the writers individuality through his choice of words and sentence patterns and his selection and arrangement of material Style frequently reflects the writers personality mood attitudes education and general background There are different kinds of styles homely coarse refined ironic vulgar plain childlike formal informal wordy colloquial direct grandiloquent and so on We choose words to suit the audience the occasion the topic and the genre eg short story essay argumentation Certain words exact and concrete as they are are excluded from formal use because they are not appropriate for formal occasions It would be absurd if slang terms or vulgarisms were used to address an audience at commencement or the other way round if a very formal style long sentences and complex grammatical structures were used in a friendly letter Yet if we have some idea of different styles but dont know whento use which this knowledge is worse than useless3 This is an example of a very formal expression alongside a colloquialism Bags of fun is a slang term whereas extremely gracious is very formal languageHere is another example of the same kind to show the inappropriateness of a formal style mixed with colloquialism In a letter of application you begin thusDear SirsI am writing to you in the hope that you still have a vacant place in your department If you hve not yet employed anyone I should like my application for the position to be consideredAnd you conclude withAs to my character and fitness for the job please rest assured that I am sure smart In this last sentence job may be rather too informal employment or post would be more suitable Smart is a colloquialism that means 搈entally alert quickf witted and talented Moreover the sentence I am sure smart is very informal and colloquial and so it is inappropriate for the letter4 Good use of English requires the appropriate choice of words for the expression of thoughts To be in good use of English therefore a word must be used appropriately in a specific set of circumstances K 225 Coy means shy diffident bashful What the writer means here isDo away with your shyness Decide what you want to say and say it as directly as possible in plain words Stop deceiving people and beatingabout the bush Call a spade a spade6 Some examples of euphemisms1 a mental home ＝ an insane asylumslow ＝ dull in mindresidence ＝ housea reconditioned automobile ＝ a used carstout ＝fatThe above words and phrases in italics are supposed to be more pleasant substitutes for those in parentheses2 skin tonic ＝cold cream The term skin tonic may help the manufacturer to sell his products more easily3 Goodness me Goodness gracious Thank goodness For goodness sake It is supposed to be blasphemous to use the word God in ones speech so goodness is used instead of God4 Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry this is called transfer of population This is quoted from George Orwells Politics and the English Language Euphemism is used here to hide some brutal harsh stark political realities7 The writer means that in spite of the fact that he strongly objects to the use of euphemisms some euphemisms having considerable vigour and vitality can still be used as far as he is concerned8 It shows that the writer can foresee the inevitable fate of any euphemism ie that any effort to avoid unpleasantness will end in failure because a euphemism will quickly acquire the same negative connotationas the word it has replaced There is thus no sense in using euphemismsB Reference version1 The richer life experience we have and the more people from all walks of life we know we will develop more extensive and flexible knowledge of different English styles and the ability to use each style appropriately when the occasion arises2 If we do not know when to use each style appropriately or if we confuse one style with another inappropriately an unsystematic and casual knowledge of styles is of no use or even worse3 Neither bags of fun nor extremely gracious in its suitable context is a careless casual expression of ones ideas4 It would however also be absurd foolish to turn the judgment completely the other way roundK 235 Except in cases where they are used to achieve humorous effect contemporary writers think that euphemisms are too disgusting artificial and pretentious6 Supporing the argument made by using the outdated and stereotyped phrases that are often used by trade union leaders would be as easy as shooting birds that never fly away7 Some euphemisms are unusual enough to be funny They are so unusual that they become quite funny8 Some people may also like extreme understatementTEXT ⅡComprehension1 C2 C3 A4 B5 B6 CTEXT ⅢComprehension1 F The euphemistic term for dustmen in the US simply sounds more prosperous2 T3 F He is put in prison but the name for prison is adjustment centre4 F There are but the term poor people has been replaced by the euphemism the underprivileged5 F There are more euphemisms in English than in many other

they may learn thrift by hearing a parent or grandparent say Waste not want not Young people tempted to be dishonest are often able to resist the temptation by recalling Honesty is the best policy Or persons faced with difficult tasks will be encouraged to persevere by keeping in mind that Little strokes fell great oaks And many tense situations are improved when one person or another remembers that A soft answer turns away wrath or that Two cannot quarrel if one wontK 24Proverbs are found in almost every language in the world whether the language is written or not In fact where the language

Reference versionWe should always bear in mind that in different circumstances we usethe English language in different ways This fact however is often forgotten When we think about language we too often think only of the more formal forms especially the written forms But we are not always reading and writing We use slang or at least colloquial forms with friends and acquaintances In certain social situations we use clichés that we would probably blush to write down We use polite speech when we speak to our elders or our superiors We use high sounding language on important occasions We tell jokes and make comments about things or people near or far We talk about ordinary things or of the secrets of the universe We express feelings to one person or to a group We choose slightly different forms of language for each of these purposes For a native speaker of English his choice is partly instinctive and partly based on an awareness of the kind of language that is expected of him

an opportunity for soul of her nephew to be saved she couldnt help feeling excited She was looking forward to the special meeting for children unable to hide her eagerness2 She told him that he could see and hear and feel Jesus in his soul when he was saved Jesus would come to him and the child would see a light and feel different inside Being a child of twelve he believed her and waited in great earnest for Jesus to come into his life3 The writer purposely describes the members of the congregation in detail the old black women wearing plaits and weather beaten old men weather beaten indicates their rich experience of life Since they believed in God and they said the same things about Jesus the child didnt think it could be untrue The writer is suggesting that the power of other people to make a person do what they believe is right is often irresistible4 1 It is first mentioned by the childs aunt in the second paragraph as an idea presented by his aunt in the process of trying to convince him of the importance of being saved2 In the fifth one sentence paragraph the child was waiting to seeJesus3 It is repeated in the seventh paragraph when the child was still waiting and longing to see Jesus4 It it repeated again in the eleventh paragraph this time as an indirect accusation of hypocrisy since Jesus didnt punish Westley for telling a lie5 The last time it is repeated is in the last paragraph when it ends up in Langstons self revelation of and regret over his dishonesty and it helps to express his distress about having been disillusioned5 He believed that many old people certainly knew better that God would come into his life He felt he had to wait patiently to see Jesus in spite of the heat the crowd and the earnest entreaties of some of the members of the congregation As he hadnt seen Jesus he didnt want to lie and say he had for he was basically an honest boy6 The lessons he learned were1 He couldnt resist the power to do what a great many people thought he should People old and young men and women all believed in the existence of almighty God he had to do what they expected of him and sit on the mourners bench to be saved and say Jesus had come2 If he didnt want to hold everything up and if he wanted to save further trouble he had better lie The proverb Honesty is the best policy he learned did not always apply3 Religion was not what he wanted He couldnt and wouldnt believe in his aunt and God any more since he had been deceived and forced to tell a lie7 He was saved from sin in an ironic sense He was compelled to commita sin ie to lie in order to be saved from sinB Reference version1 Every night for weeks the priests gave sermons and people sang songs in praise of God worshipped God and shouted for joy Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly2 The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation His speech was marvellously regular and melodious it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain grief and suffering loud and happy as well as lonely cries and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die3 The whole building shook with all the praying and singing4 All the people attending church service prayed only for me their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering5 The whole church became a sea of great joy6 When everything became quiet again during a respectful silence which was broken only by several people saying Amen extremely joyfully and happily all the

The writer intends to convince the reader that making New Year's resolutions also follows this maxim. The more resolutions you make at the beginning of the year, the better results you will have.2. He had read a number of books on self improvement before he made his resolutions. He wrote out a long list of resolutions. He wanted to make a different man of himself —a loving father and an ideal husband—by trying to attend to everyone's needs.3. Having written a long list of resolutions, he longed to put them into practice, thinking that they would be a great success.4.

She attributed his cheerfulness, good temper and thoughtfulness to not feeling his best after staying out late.6. He wanted to do better but did not know how to do it appropriately. On New Year's Day, he was in a particularly cheerful and good mood, eager to render any service to his wife and children. He did everything of his own accord. He was considerate to his wife to the minutest detail and he graciously condescended to play jacks with Gretchen, build a snowman for the boys and strike up a conversation with Kit. But the result in every case proved to be just the opposite to what he had expected. The writer behaved like a changed man. What he did was suddenly totally different from what he used to do, so his family was unprepared for this change. That's why, to them, his behaviour was too good to be true—his temper was too good to be believed, and his thoughtfulness was too great to be natural.7.

Cheques are commonly used to pay rent, for utilities, and telephone bills and can also be used to make purchases while credit cards are mainly used to make purchases.Credit cards are pieces of plastic, usually 5.5cm. by 8.5cm. They are issued by banks and stores that want people to spend more money. When purchasing something, the buyer will give his credit card to the seller. The seller will check the information on the card and record it, accept the card instead of accepting money. The seller will give the buyer a receipt and another receipt goes to the bank. The bank will then send a bill to the buyer, usually after 30 days.COMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ.

People are making purc hases by cheque, charge accounts or credit cards, rather than carrying large amounts of money in their pockets or purses.Normally people pay by cheque at the end of each month at department stores and some food markets and drugstores. They also pay monthly by cheque for rent, telephone calls, electricity, milk, newspaper deliveries, and similar household expenses. Mary have charge cards to pay for petrol and service station expenses and credit cards for restaurant, hotel, and travel costs.Many other people, however, prefer to pay as they go and not accumulate monthly bills. Most people work out a combination, paying some bills in cash and charging others. This is a matter of personal choice. But if you have charge accounts, be sure to pay promptly; the interest charged for late payments can be high.K 14Ⅲ. Listening ComprehensionA.

Somewhere below people were yelling and shrieking, but he was not concerned about the commotion. He looked round, searching for any sign of a policeman. When he heard some footsteps on the corrugated iron roof, he was seized with fear. What made them chase after me, he thought. I haven't done anything. You shouldn't have sneaked up here, he said to himself.Then he saw the shape of a policeman approaching. He did not want to give up. He still wanted to make an effort to escape. He rose to his feet quietly and tiptoed over to the far end of the roof, thinking that he could perhaps slide down the drainpipe. Just at that moment, the policeman strode forward and was about to grab the boy by the collar when, unaware of a clothesline in his way which caught his cap, he almost stumbled. Joe was startled, but he could go back no further. The policeman steadied himself and reached out for the boy.Ⅴ．Blank FillingA. 1. down 2. for 3. down, down4. after5. back6. on7. in8. off9. out10. for11. in, out12. out13. to14. over15. upB.

English has now become one of the most widely used languages in the world. In 1500, English was an insignificant language, spoken by the people living on a small island. Now it is spoken as the first language by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second language by many millions more. When people speak English, we may be able to tell which English it is—American English, Australian English, British English, Indian English and so on. Besides, for different purposes, we use different Englishes: everyday English, business English, commercial English, diplomatic English, medical English, scientific English, technical English, legal English, journalistic English and so on. We also use different degrees of formality and can differentiate between formal English, informal English, and colloquial English.2. Style expresses the writer's individuality through his choice of words and sentence patterns, and his selection and arrangement of material. Style frequently reflects the writer's personality, mood, attitudes, education, and general background. There are different kinds of styles: homely, coarse, refined, ironic, vulgar, plain, childlike, formal, informal, wordy, colloquial, direct, grandiloquent, and so on. We choose words to suit the audience, the occasion, the topic, and the genre (e.g., short story, essay, argumentation). Certain words, exact and concrete as they are, are excluded fromformal use, because they are not appropriate for formal occasions. It would be absurd if slang terms or vulgarisms were used to address an audience at commencement, or the other way round, if a very formal style, long sentences and complex grammatical structures were used in a friendly letter. Yet if we have some idea of different styles, but don't know when to use which, this knowledge is worse than useless.3. This is an example of a very formal expression alongside a colloquialism. Bags of fun is a slang term whereas extremely gracious is very formal language.Here is another example of the same kind to show the inappropriateness of a formal style mixed with colloquialism. In a letter of application, you begin thus:Dear Sirs,I am writing to you in the hope that you still have a vacant place in your department. If you hve not yet employed anyone, I should like my application for the position to be considered....And you conclude with:As to my character and fitness for the job, please rest assured that I am sure smart. In this last sentence, job may be rather too informal; employment or post would be more suitable. Smart is a colloquialism that means “mentally alert, quick witted, and t alented”. Moreover, the sentence I am sure smart is very informal and colloquial, and so it is inappropriate for the letter.4. Good use of English requires the appropriate choice of words for the expression of thoughts. To be in “good use of English”, therefore, a word must be used appropriately in a specific set of circumstances.K 225. Coy means “shy, diffident, bashful”. What the writer means here is:“Do away with your shyness. Decide what you want to say and say it as directly as possible in plain words. Stop deceiving people and beating about the bush. Call a spade a spade.”6. Some examples of euphemisms:1) a mental home (＝an insane asylum)slow (＝dull in mind)residence (＝house)a reconditioned automobile (＝a used car)stout (＝fat)The above words and phrases in italics are supposed to be more pleasant substitutes for those in parentheses.2) skin tonic (＝cold cream. The term skin tonic may help the manufacturer to sell his products more easily.)3) Goodness me！Goodness gracious！Thank goodness. For goodness' sake！(It is supposed to be blasphemous to use the word God in one's speech, so goodness is used instead of God.)4) “Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry: this is called transfer of population.” (This is quoted from George Orwell's “Politics and the English Language”. Euphemism is used here to hide some brutal, harsh, stark political realities.)7. The writer means that in spite of the fact that he strongly objects to the use of euphemisms, some euphemisms, having considerable vigour and vitality, can still be used as far as he is concerned.8. It shows that the writer can foresee the inevitable fate of any euphemism, i.e., that any effort toavoid unpleasantness will end in failure, because a euphemism will quickly acquire the same “negative connotation” as the word it has replaced. There is thus no sense in using euphemisms.B. Reference version:1. The richer life experience we have, and the more people from all walks of life we know, we will develop more extensive and flexible knowledge of different English styles and the ability to use each style appropriately when the occasion arises.2. If we do not know when to use each style appropriately, or if we confuse one style with another inappropriately, an unsystematic and casual knowledge of styles is of no use, or even worse.3. Neither “bags of fun” nor “extremely gracious” in its suitable context is a careless / casual expression of one's ideas.4. It would, however, also be absurd / foolish to turn the judgment completely the other way round.K 235. Except in cases where they are used to achieve humorous effect, contemporary writers think that euphemisms are too disgusting, artificial and pretentious.6. Supporing the argument made by using the outdated and stereotyped phrases that are often used by trade union leaders would be as easy as shooting birds that never fly away.7. Some euphemisms are unusual enough to be funny. They are so unusual that they become quite funny.8. Some people may also like extreme understatement.TEXT ⅡComprehension1. C2. C3. A4. B5. B6.

Children can learn basic lessons from them. For example, they may learn thrift by hearing a parent or grandparent say, “Waste not, want not.” Young people tempted to be dishonest are often able to resist the temptation by recalling “Honesty is the best policy”. Or persons faced with difficult tasks will be encouraged to persevere by keeping in mind that “Little strokes fell great oaks”. Andmany tense situations are improved when one person or another remembers that “A soft answer t urns away wrath”, or that “Two cannot quarrel if one won't”.K 24Proverbs are found in almost every language in the world, whether the language is written or not. In fact, where the language has not been written, proverbs are one of the principal ways the people pass down their philosophy of life from one generation to another, thus preserving their most precious heritage.COMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ.

Although the composition teacher considers these expressions nothing but cliches, they appeal very much to the students.B. Reference version:We should always bear in mind that in different circumstances we use the English language in different ways. This fact, however, is often forgotten. When we think about language, we too often think only of the more formal forms, especially the written forms. But we are not always reading and writing. We use slang, or at least colloquial forms, with friends and acquaintances. In certain social situations, we use clichés that we would probably blush to write down. We use polite speech when we speak to our elders or our superiors. We use high sounding language on important occasions. We tell jokes and make comments about things or people near or far. We talk about ordinary things or of the secrets of the universe. We express feelings to one person or to a group. We choose slightly different forms of language for each of these purposes. For a native speaker of English, his choice is partly instinctive and partly based on an awareness of the kind of language that is expected of him. A good command of English must include an acquaintance with all these “registers”.Ⅴ.

Now that there was an opportunity for the soul of her nephew to be saved, she couldn't help feeling excited. She was looking forward to the special meeting for children, unable to hide her eagerness.2She told him that he could see and hear and feel Jesus in his soul when he was saved. Jesus would come to him and the child would see a light and feel different inside. Being a child of twelve, he believed her and waited in great earnest for Jesus to come into his life.3The writer purposely describes the members of the congregation in detail —the old black women wearing plaits, and weather beaten old men; “weather beaten”indicates their rich experience of life. Since they believed in God and they said the same things about Jesus, the child didn't think it could be untrue. The writer is suggesting that the power of other people to make a person do what they believe is right is often irresistible.41) It is first mentioned by the child's aunt in the second paragraph, as an idea presented by his aunt in the process of trying to convince him of the importance of being saved.2) In the fifth one sentence paragraph the child was waiting to see Jesus.3) It is repeated in the seventh paragraph, when the child was still waiting and longing to see Jesus.4) It it repeated again in the eleventh paragraph, this time as an indirect accusation of hypocrisy, since Jesus didn't punish Westley for telling a lie.5) The last time it is repeated is in the last paragraph, when it ends up in Langston's self revelation of and regret over his dishonesty, and it helps to express his distress about having been disillusioned.5He believed that many old people certainly knew better —that God would come into his life. He felt he had to wait patiently to see Jesus in spite of the heat, the crowd, and the earnest entreaties of some of the members of the congregation. As he hadn't seen Jesus, he didn't want to lie and say he had, for he was basically an honest boy.6The lessons he learned were：1) He couldn't resist the power to do what a great many people thought he should. People, old and young, men and women, all believed in the existence of almighty God; he had to do what they expected of him and sit on the mourner's bench to be saved and say Jesus had come.2) If he didn't want to hold everything up, and if he wanted to save further trouble, he had better lie. The proverb “Honesty is the best policy”, he learned, did not always apply.3) Religion was not what he wanted. He couldn't and wouldn't believe in his aunt and God any more since he had been deceived and forced to tell a lie.7He was saved from sin in an ironic sense. He was compelled to commit a sin (ie, to lie) in order to be “saved from sin”.B Reference version：1Every night for weeks, the priests gave sermons, and people sang songs in praise of God, worshipped God and shouted for joy. Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly.2The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation. His speech was marvellously regular and melodious; it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain, grief and suffering, loud and happy as well as lonely cries, and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die.3The whole building shook with all the praying and singing.4All the people attending church service prayed only for me; their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering.5The whole church became a sea of great joy.6When everything became quiet again, during a respectful silence, which was broken only by several people saying “Amen”extremely joyfully and happily, all the children were given blessings by the minister in the name of God.TEXT ⅡComprehension1 F (People were pleased because he was not only honest but also a good businessman.)2 F (In fact, they were greatly interested in others' business.
