Unit 1 Text A一堂难忘的英语课1如果我是唯一一个还在纠正小孩英语的家长,那么我儿子也许是对的。
对他而言,我是一个乏味的怪物:一个他不得不听其教诲的父亲,一个还沉湎于语法规则的人,对此我儿子似乎颇为反感。
2我觉得我是在最近偶遇我以前的一位学生时,才开始对这个问题认真起来的。
这个学生刚从欧洲旅游回来。
我满怀着诚挚期待问她:“欧洲之行如何?”3她点了三四下头,绞尽脑汁,苦苦寻找恰当的词语,然后惊呼:“真是,哇!”4没了。
所有希腊文明和罗马建筑的辉煌居然囊括于一个浓缩的、不完整的语句之中!我的学生以“哇!”来表示她的惊叹,我只能以摇头表达比之更强烈的忧虑。
5关于正确使用英语能力下降的问题,有许多不同的故事。
学生的确本应该能够区分诸如their/there/they're 之间的不同,或区别complimentary 跟complementary 之间显而易见的差异。
由于这些知识缺陷,他们承受着大部分不该承受的批评和指责,因为舆论认为他们应该学得更好。
6学生并不笨,他们只是被周围所看到和听到的语言误导了。
举例来说,杂货店的指示牌会把他们引向stationary (静止处),虽然便笺本、相册、和笔记本等真正的stationery (文具用品)并没有被钉在那儿。
朋友和亲人常宣称They've just ate。
实际上,他们应该说They've just eaten。
因此,批评学生不合乎情理。
7对这种缺乏语言功底而引起的负面指责应归咎于我们的学校。
学校应对英语熟练程度制定出更高的标准。
可相反,学校只教零星的语法,高级词汇更是少之又少。
还有就是,学校的年轻教师显然缺乏这些重要的语言结构方面的知识,因为他们过去也没接触过。
学校有责任教会年轻人进行有效的语言沟通,可他们并没把语言的基本框架——准确的语法和恰当的词汇——充分地传授给学生。
8因为语法对大多数年轻学生而言枯燥且乏味,所以我觉得讲授语法得一步一步、注重技巧地进行。

Unit 1 Language in missionText A An impressive English lessonEx.1 Understanding the text1、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 Romanarchitecture 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.

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 hisson; it also reflects the author ’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in two different situations and with two different feelings.

Theformation and development of the Chinese calligraphy is closely related to theemergence and evolution of Chinese characters. In this long evolutionary process,Chinese characters have not only played an important role in exchanging ideas andtransmitting culture but also developed into a unique art form. Calligraphic works well reflect calligraphers ’personal feelings, knowledge, self -cultivation, personality, and so forth, thus there is an expression that “seeing the calligrapher ’s handwriting is like seeing the person ”. As one of the treasuresof Chinese culture, Chinese calligraphy shines splendidly in the world ’s treasure house of culture and art.Unit 2 College-The ladder to successText A The humanities:Out of date?Reading Comprehension1. because English or history majors are considered less competitive when the jobmarket is shrinking, and they have to study something that can help them more easily locate their future jobs.2. because as the tuition is climbing higher and higher, many students have run away from studying the humanities and toward “hard”skills that they think will leadto employment.3. since more students are now taking job-oriented courses, libraries, where students of liberal arts used to study, are getting less popular than before; incontrast, labs are getting more eye-catching because students of science and engineering do experiments and research there.4. because this inner drive that can be either constructive or destructive is somysterious and powerful that it has attracted many people to speculate on it. From ancient times, these men and womendeveloped artistic “languages ”in the form of story, music, myth, painting, architecture, sculpture, landscape and traditions,which from the very foundation of civilization.5. Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write, makes youfamiliar with the language of emotion and the creative process, and, more importantly, provides you with a wide scope of possibilities that are open to you.6. Because in modern life, an ideal capacity for establishing one ’s career is tohave both technical knowledge and inner insight, not just one without the other.7. “Well - rounded human beings ”are those who have insight and understand the passions, hopes and dreams common to all humanity.8. Since many people who once studied the humanities became famous in their career, the author implies that if students spend more time studying the humanities, theycould surely become successful in the future as well.Language focus 31. promotes2. accelerate3. mystery4. insight5. boost6.analysis 7. calculate 8. barriers 9. destruction 10. prospect4Promising Bearing Housing Objective Offend ExcludeExcess Execute Intensify Identity51. excess2. bearing3. objective4. intensify5. execute6. promising7. exclude8. identity 9 offend 10. housing6.1-5 CHDJB 6-10 LMGFA71. are liable to2. in favor of3. is bound to4. speculate about5. invested ⋯with6. stand up for7.in the form of 8. prepared for 9. in the company of10 in succession10In recent years, with the development of Internet technology, the construction ofdigital education resources of our country has made great achievements. Many universities have set up their own digital learning platforms, and digital teaching is playing an increasingly important role in education. Compared with the traditional way of teaching, the digital way has a lot of advantages. On one hand,digital teaching makes global sharing of teaching resources possible; on the other hand, it expands the learner ’s study time and space to learn, allowing people toget access to the digital virtual schools through the Internet anytime and anywhere. These advantages make it possible for people to shift from one-time learning tolifelong learning.Unit 3 Discovery of a new life stageText A The humanities:Out of date?Ex.11. Because people in different life stages are confronted with different problemsand setbacks and each group of people in a particular time period have theirparticular worries and pains.2.The norm refers to the general consensus that as soon as students graduated from college, they would enter adulthood and be able to find an ideal job leading to their career.3. They are recognized as a new life stage that comes after high school graduation, continues through college and leads to starting a family and having a career.4. Because nowadays so many young people are following this new lifestyle that ithas become a trend. As long as the economic situation continues its long slide, this new stage is unavoidable.5. Unlike their parents, a large number of young people are now delaying marriage, child bearing, and even employment during their odyssey years.6. They often resent the pressure they ’re feeling and keep a distance from theirparents or even run away from home. Many also resort to computer games, iPods, iPhones, or iPads.7. Their parents feel more anxious and upset seeing their children ’s odyssey years continue to stretch without a clear direction.8. The author thinks as people are getting to know the odyssey years better, bothparents and their children can tackle this phase better. For parents, they canunderstand their children more; for children, they can explore and discover themselves with a positive attitude.Ex.31. peculiar2. radical3. phase4. sensible5.predict 6. labeled 7. resent 8. witnessed 9. equivalent 10. parallelsEx.4-ic Chaotic dramatic academy -ion Depression detection erosion Classification confuse cooperate dictate -ist Rightist journalEx.51. journal2. chaotic3. cooperate4. erosion5. dramatic6. confuse7. academy8. rightists9. depression 10. dictate 11. detection 12. classificationEx. 6K E A C L I G N H OEx.71. saddled with2. back off3. gives way to4. resorted to5. makeallowances for6. wonder at7. prior to8. based upon/on Ex. 10Filial piety is the basic code of ethics in the ancient Chinese society. Chinesepeople consider filial piety as the essence of a person’s integrity, family harmony, and the nation ’s well -being. With filial piety being the core of Confucian ethics, it has been the moral standard for the Chinese society to maintain the familyrelationship for thousands of years. It ’s undoubtedly a traditional Chinese virtue. The culture of filial piety is a complex concept, rich in content and wide in range. It concludes not only cultural ideas but also institutional etiquettes. Generallyspeaking, it refers to the obligation of children to their parents required by the society, including respect, care, support for the elderly and so forth. Filial piety is fundamental to the ancient “Oriental civilization ”.Unit 4 Dance with loveText A College sweetheartsEx. 11. The author uses this sentence to tell her own love story. She didn ’t expect that she would end up marrying Butch. He became her boyfriend just because of her wishto find a cute boyfriend. She didn ’t really want to marry him at the beginning.2. Because when she met up with Butch the first time, he kept staring at her allnight long. He flattered her and fell in love with her at first sight. He lookedreally wild or maybe even dangerous.3. Because Butch had a “bad boy image”which was very tempting to a lot of girls, and his wild, dynamic personality was a little frightening. She didn ’t know whether she could be getting along with him.4. Though she always had an excellent reputation in respect to her schoolwork, she thought that her college life was dull, with no fun. In her opinion, college wassupposed to be a time of great learning and also of some fun.5. Because she was becoming more interested in him and she wanted to find out ifshe was the “right ”date in the eyes of Butch, thinking of herself as a traditional girl.6. It means that Butch didn ’t want to do anything to change his bad situation. The word fate here refers to the fact that Butch was going to be expelled from theuniversity.7. Though Butch was wild and would sometimes display directly his love in front ofher friends, he was always a perfect gentleman at his core. And they had a pure and responsible relationship for seven years.8. The author and her husband’s faithful journey of love that started with a causal attraction but bloomed into a mature love proves that romantic love can last longthrough the ups and downs in life.Ex. 31. confess2. tempting3. commence4. coordinating5.granted 6. deserved 7. displayed 8. consequently 9. lodged10. proceedEx. 4-edContented compress complicate -ion Identificationjustification qualification Illustration exhibit extension Interpretation plantation perceptionEx. 51. qualifications2. perception3. plantations4. compressed5. exhibit6. contented7. interpretation8. complicate9. illustration10. extension 11. identification 12. justificationEx. 6N B G I H L E M K C1. on her behalf2. took the liberty of3. immune to4. werefilled with 5. fall in love with 6.

Every year, some big businesses organize various activities, and young people send gifts to their lovers. As a result, the QixiFestival is considered to be Chinese “Valentine ’s Day”. The Qixi Festival isderived from the legend of Cowherd and Weaving Maid. The legend holds that on thisparticular night every year the Weaving Maid in heaven meets with Cowherd. So, people can see Cowherd and Weaving Maid meeting in the Milky Way on the night of Qixi. Onthis night, girls would also beg Weaving Maid for some wisdom for a happy marriage. But, with the changing of times, these activities are diminishing. All that remains is the legend of Cowherd and Weaving Maid, a sign of faithful love, continuouslycirculated among the folk.Unit5 The money gameText A Spend or save- The student ’s dilemmaEx.31. contradict2. paradox3. perspective4. explicit5. suspended6.derive 7. defy 8. retains 9. manipulating 10. tackleEx4-er browse browsermessage messenger consumer consume -ion negotiate negotiationobject objection react reaction constitute constitutioncultivate cultivation define definition expand expansionconcentration concentrate civilization civilize1. concentrated2. messenger3. civilized4.

This trade route focuses on the trade of silk, hence the name “the Silk Road ”.As an international trade channel and a bridge of cultural exchanges, the Silk Road effectively improved the economic and cultural exchanges and development betweenthe East and the West, exerting a profound impact on the progress of the worldcivilization. Nowadays, under the new historical circumstances, our country proposes the strategy of “One Belt, One Road”(namely the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st- century Maritime Silk Road). The strategy of “One Belt, One Road ”focuses on cooperation and mutual benefits, emphasizing mutual benefits, win-win,as well as commondevelopment of the related countries. Once proposed, the strategy has received positive responses from the related countries along the road.Unit6 Less is moreText A Door closer,are you?Reading comprehension Understanding the text11 He was imposing on his troops a necessary sacrifice to achieve victory over their opponents. By doing this, the soldiers would be more determined and concentratedon the battles.2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational humanbehavior when making a decision, such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open.3 The experiment enabled people to see why it's always so hard for them to say "NO" to any opportunities that came to them. In everyday life, people just give excuses to keep options open.4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash. They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors.5 Because we can see that the students didn't really focus on ensuring future cashearnings. What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close.6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly, not like the ones on the computerin the experiment, people don't really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little.7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking, reduce options, delegatetasks to others, and even give away ideas to others to pursue.8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attentionin a more concentrated fashion. They will have more with fewer, carefully chosenoptions.31 implement2 rival3 motivating4 discarded5 fluctuating6 prejudiced7 restore8 enlightening9 profit 10 investigateWord building 4 Words learned New words formed-ic strategy strategic sympathy sympathetic -ion confirm confirmationlocate location reflect reflection provide provisioninstall installation register registrationquotation quote -ize sympathy sympathize criticcriticize industrial industrialize51 sympathize2 confirmation3 strategic 4installation 5 quote 6 sympathetic 7 criticize8 location 9 reflection 10 industrialize 11 provision 12 registration Banked cloze61 M2 D3 H4 05 F6 L7 I8 C9 J 10 AExpressions in use 7I was attached to 2 be measured in 3 come in handy 4 clinging to 5 paya big price 6 are exhausted from 7 imposed on 8 revolve around10National Happiness Index (NHI) is an index that measures how happy people are. Itis also a tool that measures the levels of economic development and people's livelihood and happiness in a country or region. With the fast growth of Chineseeconomy, the Chinese government has been paying more and more attention to people's living quality and the increase of happiness index. The government stresses improvement of its people's livelihood, striving to improve their economic conditions and meet their growing material and cultural needs. Currently, theChinese government advocates the unleashing of more reform dividends, with the aim of offering more real benefits to its people. All these measures will combine toeffectively increase the NHI of our people.Unit7 Women:Making a differenceTextA Women at rhe management level3.Words in use1. harness2.symbolic3.disposed4.flourishing5.violated6.accommodation7.infer pose 9.plausible 10.toleranceWord building 4.-al/-ial fate fatal horizon horizontal mechanic mechanical occasionoccasional proportion proportionan logical logic deny denial commercial mommerce-ity relative relativity prior priority continue continuity actual actuality5.1.actuality2.mechanical3.logic4.denial5.Occasional6.fatal7.continuity8.relativity9.priority merce 11.proportional 12.horizon6.1.D2.J3.M4.H5.

Embroidery, with at least two or three thousand years of history,is one of the Chinese traditional folk arts and crafts. Since most embroiderers are women, it's also called "women's needlework". Embroidery has been much-loved by the Chinese people. It can be used to beautify clothing and things. For example, clothes, quilts, pillowcases etc. can be embroidered with beautiful designs, or a piece ofembroidery can be made for a special ornament. There are four most famous types ofembroidery in China: Suxiu from Suzhou, Yuexiu from Guangdong, Xiangxiu from Hunan, and Shuxiu from Sichuan, each having its own style and theme. Amongthe four, Suzhou embroidery has enjoyed the highest reputation.Unit 8 Human rights vs. Animal rightsText A Animals or children?- A scientist ’s choice understanding the text:1. He became a children ’s doctor because of this love for children and hisstrong desire to keep them healthy.2. He is thought of having no moral compass: He tortures innocent animals for hiscareer advancement and his experiments having nothing to do with medicine.3. The public barely watches, convinced that the issue has no significance to them, while the senator and politicians continue to give way to the lobbying of animalrights activists4. The author does not really admit their mistake, but the tone is apparently ironic, criticizing that the physicians were too soft to respond to the animal rightsactivists.5. Life is cruel to both animals and human beings . if the physician don’t create an animal model of the problem, they have to do experiments on human beings, or the medical knowledge will remain static.6. Drugs to cure infection will remain undiscovered, surgical and diagnostictechniques will remain undeveloped, and fundamental biological processes will remain mysteries.7. Because protection from serious sickness and drugs as well as most complexsurgical procedures were initially developed in animals instead of human beings8. If the more radical members of this movement are successful in threateningfurther research, their efforts will bring about a tragedy that will cost the lives of many human beings.

The government hastaken a series of important measures to protect and improve the ecological environment, such as actively promoting key ecological projects, enhancing ecosystem construction and biodiversity conservations, establishing a number ofnature reservation, ecological demonstration zones, scenic spots and forest parks. One of the important goals of building a socialist harmonious society is to strengthen ecological protection and construction and to achieve harmony betweenman and nature. Environmental protection and ecological civilization constructionhave provided a solid foundation for the sustainable development of China’s economy and society.。

Chinese people consider filial piety as the essence of a person’s integrity, family harmony, and the nation’s well-being. With filial piety being the coreof Confucian ethics, it has been the moral standard for the Chinese society to maintain the family relationship for thousands of years. It’s undoubtedly a traditional Chinese virtue. The culture of filial piety is a complex concept,rich in content and wide in range. It concludes not only cultural ideas but also institutional etiquettes. Generally speaking, it refers to the obligationof children to their parents required by the society, including respect, care, support for the elderly and so forth. Filial piety is fundamental to the ancient “Oriental civilization”.Unit 4 Dance with loveText A College sweetheartsEx. 11. The author uses this sentence to tell her own love story.

Though she always had an excellent reputation in respect to her schoolwork,she thought that her college life was dull, with no fun. In her opinion,college was supposed to be a time of great learning and also of some fun.5.

Nowadays, under the new historical circumstances, our country proposes the strategy of “One Belt, One Road”(namely the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st-century Maritime Silk Road). The strategy of “One Belt, One Road” focuses on cooperation and mutual benefits, emphasizing mutual benefits, win-win, as well as common development of the related countries.

By doing this, the soldiers would be more determined and concentrated on the battles.2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational human behavior when making a decision, such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open.3 The experiment enabled people to see why it's always so hard for them to say "NO" to any opportunities that came to them. In everyday life, people just give excuses to keep options open.4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash. They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors.5 Because we can see that the students didn't really focus on ensuring future cash earnings. What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close.6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly, not like the ones on the computer in the experiment, people don't really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little.7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking, reduce options, delegate tasks to others, and even give away ideas to others to pursue.8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attention in a more concentrated fashion. They will have more with fewer, carefully chosen options.31 implement2 rival3 motivating4 discarded5 fluctuating6 prejudiced7 restore8 enlightening9 profit 10 investigateWord building 4 Words learned New words formed-ic strategy strategic sympathy sympathetic -ion confirm confirmationlocate location reflect reflection provide provisioninstall installation register registrationquotation quote -ize sympathy sympathize critic criticize industrial industrialize51 sympathize2 confirmation3 strategic 4installation 5 quote 6 sympathetic 7 criticize 8 location 9 reflection 10 industrialize 11 provision 12 registration Banked cloze61 M2 D3 H4 05 F6 L7 I8 C9 J 10 AExpressions in use 7I was attached to 2 be measured in 3 come in handy 4 clinging to 5pay a big price 6 are exhausted from 7 imposed on 8 revolve around10National Happiness Index (NHI) is an index that measures how happy people are.It is also a tool that measures the levels of economic development and people'slivelihood and happiness in a country or region.

Embroidery, with at least two or three thousand years of history, is one of the Chinese traditional folk arts and crafts. Since most embroiderers are women, it's also called "women's needlework". Embroidery has been much-loved by the Chinese people. It can be used to beautify clothing and things. For example, clothes, quilts, pillowcases etc. can be embroidered withbeautiful designs, or a piece of embroidery can be made for a special ornament. There are four most famous types of embroidery in China: Suxiu from Suzhou, Yuexiu from Guangdong, Xiangxiu from Hunan, and Shuxiu from Sichuan, each having its own style and theme. Among the four, Suzhou embroidery has enjoyed the highest reputation.Unit 8 Human rights vs. Animal rightsText A Animals or children?-A scientist’s choice understanding the text:1. He became a children’s doctor because of this love for children and his strong desire to keep them healthy.2. He is thought of having no moral compass: He tortures innocent animals for his career advancement and his experiments having nothing to do with medicine.3. The public barely watches, convinced that the issue has no significance to them, while the senator and politicians continue to give way to the lobbying of animal rights activists4. The author does not really admit their mistake, but the tone is apparently ironic, criticizing that the physicians were too soft to respond to the animal rights activists.5. Life is cruel to both animals and human beings . if the physician don’t create an animal model of the problem, they have to do experiments on human beings, or the medical knowledge will remain static.6. Drugs to cure infection will remain undiscovered, surgical and diagnostic techniques will remain undeveloped, and fundamental biological processes will remain mysteries.7. Because protection from serious sickness and drugs as well as most complex surgical procedures were initially developed in animals instead of human beings8. If the more radical members of this movement are successful in threateningfurther research, their efforts will bring about a tragedy that will cost thelives of many human beings.

还有就是,学校的年轻教师显然缺乏这些重要的语言结构方面的知识,因为他们过去也没接触过。
学校有责任教会年轻人进行有效的语言沟通,可他们并没把语言的基本框架——准确的语法和恰当的词汇——充分地传授给学生。
8 因为语法对大多数年轻学生而言枯燥且乏味,所以我觉得讲授语法得一步一步、注重技巧地进行。
有一天机会来了。
我跟儿子开车外出。
我们出发时,他看到一只小鸟飞得很不稳,就说:“它飞的不稳。
”(It's flying so unsteady.)我小心翼翼地问:“儿子,鸟怎么飞” “有问题吗我说得不对吗(Did I say anything incorrectly)” 他一头雾水。
“太好了,你说的是incorrectly而不是incorrect。
我们用副词来描述动词。
所以,要用unsteadily来描述鸟飞,而不是unsteady。
”9 他对我的纠正很好奇,就问我什么是副词。
我慢慢解释道:“副词是用来修饰动词的词。
” 这又导致了他询问我什么是动词。
我解释说:“动词是表示行为的词,例如:爸爸开卡车。
‘开’是动词,因为它是爸爸在做的事。
”10 他开始对表示行为的词产生兴趣,所以我们又罗列了几个动词:“飞行”、“游泳”、“跳水”、“跑步”。
然后,他又好奇地问我,其他的词有没有说明它们的用法和功能的名称。
这就引发了我们对名词、形容词和冠词的讨论。
在短短十分钟的驾驶时间内,他从对语法一无所知到学会了句子中主要词语的词性。
这是一次毫无痛苦而又非常有趣的学习经历。
11 也许,语言应该被看成是一张路线图和一件珍品:我们要常常查看路线图(核对语法)和调整汽车的引擎(调节词汇)。
学好语法和掌握大量的词汇就好比拿着路线图在车况良好的车里驾驶。
12 路线图为你的旅行提供所需的基本路线和路途指南,可是它不会告诉你一路上你究竟会看见什么树或什么花,你会遇见什么样的人,或会有什么样的感受。
这里,词汇会使你的旅途变得五彩缤纷、栩栩如生。
大量的词汇让你享受到开车途中所见的点点滴滴。
借助语法和丰富的词汇,你就有了灵活性,掌控自如。
路线图会把你带到目的地,而一台好车却能让你完全陶醉于旅途的所有景色、声音及经历之中。
(13 对学生来说,有效、准确且富有成效的沟通技能取决于语法和词汇这两大有利条件,可是学校并没有教他们这些。
14 就在今天早上,我跟儿子吃早饭时,我想把牛奶加入我的茶里。
“爸爸,” 他说,“如果我是你的话,我不会这样做。
牛奶会变酸。
(If I were you, I wouldn't do that. It's sour.)”15 “哦,上帝!” 我满怀着无比的骄傲说道,“这是一句语法完全正确的句子。
你用了were而不是was。
”16 “我知道,我知道,”他愉悦地舒了口气,“这是虚拟语气!”17 这下轮到我“哇!”了。
Unit 2 Text A人文学科:过时了吗1 当形势变得困难时,强者会去选学会计。
当就业市场恶化时,许多学生估算着他们不能再主修英语或历史。
他们得学一些能改善他们就业前景的东西。
~2 数据显示,随着学生肩负的学费不断增加,他们已从学习人文学科转向他们相信有益于将来就业的应用科学和“硬”技能。
换言之,大学教育越来越被看成是改善经济而不是提升人类自身的手段。
这种趋势可能会持续,甚至有加快之势。
3 在未来几年内,由于劳动力市场的不景气,人文学科可能会继续其长期低迷的态势。
在上一代大学生中,主修文科的学生数跌幅已近50%。
这种趋势会持续、甚至加速的想法是合情合理的。
人文学科曾是大学生活的重要支柱,而今在学生们的大学游中却只是一个小点缀。
现在,实验室要比图书馆更栩栩如生、受人青睐。
4 在这儿,请允许我为人文学科给人们的生活所增添的真实价值进行支持和宣传。
自古以来,人们一直在思索人类自身具有什么神奇的内力使一些人变得崇高伟大,而使另一些人走向自我毁灭。
几个世纪以来,这股内力被称作很多东西。
著名的心理学家西格蒙德·弗洛伊德称之为“潜意识”,或更为人熟知的“本能”。
5 从一开始,人类这股可以是建设性也可以是毁灭性的内在驱动力,就令我们心驰神往。
这些惊人的、充满内心挣扎的故事形成了世界文化的基础。
历史学家、建筑师、作家、哲学家和艺术家们以故事、音乐、神话、绘画、建筑、雕刻、风景画和传统的形式,捕捉到了这些撞击心灵的文字、形象及内涵。
这些男男女女创造出了具有艺术性的“语言”,帮助我们了解人类的这些强烈愿望,并用以教育一代又一代人。
从古时起开始的这些充满想象的大量作品,正是文明的底蕴,它奠定了人文研究的基础。
6 学习人文学科会提高我们的阅读和写作能力。
无论我们这一生中从事什么职业,如果我们能读懂复杂的思想并理解它们的内涵,我们都会受益匪浅。
如果我们是在办公室里能对这些思想写出既明确又简洁的分析的人,我们会有光明的职业前景。
7 学习人文学科会让我们熟悉表达情感的语言及进行创造的过程。
在信息经济中,很多人都有能力创造出一个如新的MP3播放器那样的有用产品。
然而,仅有很少的人具有能力创造出一个如iPod那样的精彩品牌。
最重要的是,学习人文学科使我们具有伟大的洞察力和自我意识,从而以积极和建设性的方式来发挥我们的创造力和才艺。
8 也许,支持人文学科的最好论点是,人文学科为我们提供了广阔的机会。
你知道世界闻名的电影《泰坦尼克号》的导演詹姆斯·卡梅隆拿的是人文学科的学位吗第一个登上太空的女宇航员萨利·赖德拿的也是人文学科的学位。
还有电影演员李小龙、格温妮丝·帕特洛、蕾妮·齐薇格及马特·达蒙,也都如此。
获诺贝尔医学奖的哈罗德·瓦慕斯博士也学过人文学科。
甚至迪士尼公司的总裁迈克尔·艾斯纳也主修人文学科。
学习人文学科的有名人士确实可以列出一长串。
显而易见,人文学能为我们从事许多不同的职业做准备,不管是医学、商务、科学或娱乐。
如果我们仅学习数学,我们很可能只能申请数学家之类的工作。
如果我们还学了人文学科,那我们就能突破许多障碍,只要我们愿意付出努力,敢于想象。
9 当然,在当下,如果我们单学人文学科,可能会失去很多机会。
我们每个人都需要尽可能变得技能化、职业化,以满足现代生活的需要。
事实上,技术知识和内在洞察力的结合越来越被看成是建立职业生涯的理想搭配。
如果我是某个医学院的招生部主任,有两个人同时申请我们学校,这两个人都学过基础的科学课程,一个主修哲学,另一个仅是医学院的预科生,我会选择那位哲学专业的申请者。
[10 总之,人文学科帮助造就全面发展的人,这些人具有洞察力,并理解全人类共有的激情、希望和理想。
人文学科,这个古老、永恒的知识储蓄库,教我们如何以不同的方式看待事物,同时也拓宽我们的视野。
在现代社会中,人文学科一如既往地同生活息息相关,也发挥着重要作用。
我们在学习中花一些时间与人文学科——我们杰出、非凡的知识宝藏——相伴,这难道不是明智的吗谁知道你将来会变得多有名气呢!Unit 3 Text A奥德赛岁月之旅1 我们大多数人都知道,根据不同的年龄和生活阶段,人生可与此平行划分为童年、青春期、成年和老年这四个阶段。
我们把这些阶段想象为婴儿在童年之前,中年在老年之前,每个阶段都会面临一系列特有的挑战,如孩子对学习的需要,成人对找到合适的职业生涯和建立一个家庭的需要,以及年长者对得到帮助和良好医疗保健的需要。
通过对它们的充分了解,我们就可以战胜这些挑战。
2 有趣的是,关于人生阶段的观念正在发生变化。
3 在先前的年代,人们并没有一种固有的把童年和成年分开的想法。
一百年前,谁也没有想到过青春期。
直到最近,人们还很自然地认为:只要他们一从大学毕业,他们的成人入门阶段就结束了。
他们就会找到一份把他们引入职业生涯的合适的工作。
然后在此职业生涯期间,他们会成家,三十岁之前成家更为理想。
4 今天,我们同样需要认识一个新的人生阶段:从高中毕业到上大学,然后到成家立业,即所谓的奥德赛岁月。
由于年轻人正按照一种不同的模式生活,最近的趋势出现了根本性的变化。
他们从学校休学,与朋友同住,也常回去与父母同住。
同样,他们恋爱又失恋,辞掉一份工作又去寻找新的,甚至改行。
因此,我们需要认识这个新阶段——奥德赛岁月。
现在许多人认为这是步入成年之前的一个难以回避的阶段。
5 出生于上个世纪60年代或70年代之前的人们往往会将成年的概念基于是否取得了某些成就:从父母家搬走,经济上独立,找到合适的配偶并组织家庭。
但是,对稳定的强调并没能保持不变。
今天,年轻人不太可能仿效他们的父母。
在奥德赛岁月中,相当比例的年轻人都推迟结婚、生子,甚至推迟就业。
:6 奥德赛岁月使年轻人承受了巨大的压力,迫使他们快速往前冲。
作为他们父母唯一的继承人和所有期望、希望和梦想的聚焦,有些年轻人以叛逆和桀骜不驯的行为和态度对待父母。
他们往往憎恨他们所感到的压力,并同他们的父母保持距离,甚至离家出走。
他们的困惑源于很难让家长了解他们,也源于这段需要进行自我探索的、不确定的人生之旅。
