新世纪英语专业综合教程第2版3 unit1~unit10课后translation III翻译新世纪英语专业综合教程第2版 3 课后translation III翻译Unit 1我刚进入大学的头几天让我颇为难忘。

当父母驾车离开，将我一个人留在校园里时，我感到手足无措。

不管我如何尝试让自己看起来成熟，我还是没能处理好即将成为一个新生的菜鸟气。

我花费了几个小时去将我的教室一一找出来。

接下来的一天早上，我坐在前面，打开我的美国文学选集并准备好用精力充沛的姿态去听讲座。

但当听到那个教授说“欢迎来到生物讲座”时，我便意识到我进错了教室。

我用仿佛钢铁般的意志保持着一个生物专业学生该有的姿态直到讲座结束。

下课后，我感觉我的胃需要补充一点儿营养，于是我赶到自助餐厅。

但不幸的是，当我拿着餐盘走向一张桌子时，我的脚底打滑了，餐盘被打翻了，并且我自己也失去了平衡躺倒在地上。

那几天里，我被一种羞耻感所困扰着。

后来，我意识到我把这件小事太放在心上了。

在大学里，做你自己并且找到真正的自我比尝试去把每件事都做到完美更重要。

我们不必去不惜一切代价地避免所有善意的谎言，因为一个善意的谎言可能仅仅是用信任来换取关心而已。

你的观点又是什么呢？Unit 6诗歌既如语言一般普遍，又同语言一样古老。

在某些方面，阅读诗歌跟阅读小说很相似；我们注意细节和语言，联系上下文并作出推断，然后得出结论。

然而诗歌的阅读还是有些不同的。

与小说相比，诗歌则是一门浓缩和含蓄的艺术。

我们需要不止一次地去读一首诗，因为一首好诗，只凭一次简单的阅读是不能懂得它的全部含义的。

读一首诗的最佳方法和读一份报纸的最佳方法是刚好相反的。

人在读一份报纸的时候是快速浏览，而读一首诗时是慢慢咀嚼。

我们为什么要阅读诗歌？我们认为我们可以从阅读诗歌中获得乐趣。

譬如，通过阅读他们的诗歌，我们可以发现并享受斯宾塞的梦幻，弥尔顿的壮丽，华兹华斯的自然简洁，济慈的美妙旋律，拜伦的叙述魅力等。

●Global Reading✧Structural Analysis of the TextThis text is a piece of narrative writing, in which the author tells about her experience during the first year at university, which at first seems to be very awkward but turns out to be on the right track at last.In the text, three incidents are narrated by the author: 1) the first is about her going into the wrong classroom; 2) the second is about her falling down in the cafeteria; 3) the last is about her witnessing the same embarrassing fall happening to someone admired by her.Despite the differences between these three incidents, they actually revolve around one theme: The growth of the author, who is able to draw lessons from the mistakes she has made and finally succeeds in adjusting herself to the college life.✧Rhetorical Features of the TextDetailed descriptions of events are everywhere to be seen in this text, which is a dominant feature of narrative writing. Since the description of an event will involve a lot of movements or actions, compound sentences and compound-complex sentences have been used frequently in the text.For examples:I first began to wonder what I was doing on a college campus anyway when my parents drove off, leaving me standing pitifully in a parking lot, wanting nothing more than to find my way safely to my dorm room. (Paragraph 1)I settled into my chair and tried to assume the scientific pose of a biology major, bending slightly forward, tensing my arms in preparation for furious note-taking, and cursing under my breath. (Paragraph 5)●Detailed Reading✧Questions1. Why did the author have the impression that “everyone on campus was watching me”? (Paragraph 1)→The author, being over-sensitive, was uneasy with her identity as a freshman. She thought a new student would attract others’ attention, as what she did or said was liable to be too naïve to be right. That feeling is a typical symptom of lacking in self-confidence.2. Why did the author exclaim “What confidence, what reserve, what muscles!” when she saw the football player? (Paragraph 2)→College life was a new experience to the author. That she marveled at the real football player showed her excitement about her new life. And more importantly, her response revealed her admiration of an image which was almost exactly the opposite of her own. This admiration would later become the motivation of her change.3. How many questions are used in Paragraphs 3, 4 and 5? Why does the author raise these→Four elliptical questions are used in these paragraphs. Being a freshman, the author was not well acquainted with campus life. She was at a loss as to what to do when something unexpected happened. These questions are used to show her bewilderment.4. Why did she dine on junk food for the next three days? (Paragraphs 6-8)→Because she thought she had become the laughing-stock on campus. She couldn’t stand being laughed at by all the students when she turned up in the cafeteria.5. What was the key lesson Evelyn Herald learned during her first few weeks in college? (Paragraphs 10-14)→The key lesson she learned during her first few weeks in college was that she realized she didn’t have to pay too much attention to what other people were thinking about her. The fresh campus life was her big chance to do her own things and be her own person. She might well relax herself and stop worrying about making mistakes because people all grow by trial and error.✧Group discussion: What lessons have you learned from Evelyn’s experiences after readingthe article “Fresh Start”? Share the experiences when you first came to college.✧Words and ExpressionsParagraph 1distinct a.clearly seen, heard, felt, understood, etc.; noticeablee.g. Now that the boss was no longer present, there was a distinct change in her attitude.The children have distinct memories of their grandfather in his last days.Comparison: distinct & distinctivedistinct: Something that is distinct can clearly be seen, heard, smelled, etc.e.g. There is a distinct smell of beer in this room.distinctive: It means having a special quality, character, or appearance that is different and easy to recognize.e.g. Beer has a very distinctive smell; it’s quite distinct from the smell of wine.Practice:One of the _________ features of this book is its __________ illustrations.本书特点之一就是具有清楚明了的图解。
