The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Unit 2Language Sense Enhancement on P 38-391) cure 2) impact 3) orbiting4) warn of 5) location 6) At any given time7)vibrate 8) detected 9) calculate 10) convertedI.

The internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere. They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions. Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Unit 5VocabularyI1) In a way 2) in accordance 3) vacancy 4) in good condition 5) transparent 6) rub 7) spicy 8) hitherto9) with (a) bad grace 10) instinct 11) pawned 12) current2.1) turned up 2) will stick to 3) brought back 4)go about5) driving at 6) put away 7) over 8) took aback3.1) has a very weak constitution --- she may not be able to survive the operation.2) was taken aback by the insurance company’s rejection of my compensation claim3) was something of a surprise when we ran into each other in a place like that.4) needs trimming/ to be trimmed ---it’s getting too long.5) are often seceptive4.1) Oddly enough /went broke /wrinkled / he had gone all to pieces2) definite / is capable of /her vanity3) too mild / sipping / strokeII.

Unit 7Part I Listening T askScript for the recording:Y ou have to be careful with gambling. It can grow into an addiction that can leave you and your family penniless. It is an addiction that can catch people of any age in its grasp, as you can hear from the following story about Joe and Ellen.Retirement was a bright spot on the horizon for Joe and Ellen until a riverboat casino appeared on the scene.After Joe turned 65 and wound up with a lot of time on his hands, he accepted a friend's invitation to visit one of the local riverboat casinos. He had never gambled before, but this was entertainment, something to do with his friends.The men started going fairly often, Ellen recalls, and Joe would sometimes ask her for an extra $50 or $80 to take to the boats."Sometimes he would win and come home with money. Sometimes he would come home and say he lost it all. But I didn't know he was spending $500 or $800," she said.By the time he reached his early 70s, Joe had wiped out the entire amount he and Ellen had saved for retirement. But he kept it hidden from his wife.Ellen found out last April when she asked him how they were going to pay for an upcoming vacation."He gave me one excuse after another about why he couldn't get at his money, and I knew something was wrong. I kept after him that whole day, like the FBI. Finally he confessed. He said he spent everything. I was devastated," she said, her eyes quickly tearing up. "I told him to get out."Ellen eventually let him stay but she demanded Joe go to Gamblers Anonymous, an organization to rehabilitate gamblers, which he did that week and continues to do. Months later, she was still in shock over how his compulsion had ruined their lives.A daughter who lives with them now buys their food. The only other income is their Social Security checks and a meager paycheck Joe earns at a part-time job. Luckily, they had paid off their mortgage before he became a compulsive gambler.Their story is not so different from those collected in a two-year national gambling study that examined whether any economic benefit it brings is worth the high social cost.Not everyone who places a bet becomes a compulsive gambler, but millions of people in the U.S. are hooked on gambling, the study revealed. Among them a significant number of individuals turn into pathological, problem or at-risk gamblers, who are distinct from recreation or social gamblers in that they cannot control their impulse to gamble and often bring ruin on themselves and their families.After Listening1.the local riverboat casinos2.wiped out/gambled away the entire amount3.rehabilitate gamblers4.cannot control their impulse to gamble；bring ruin on themselves and theirfamiliesPart II Reading taskComprehensionContent QuestionsPossible answers to content questions:1.Rex used to be an editor at Random House.

But no amount of knowledge, no amount of enlightenment, makes the illness any less confounding, any less destructive.9.Gamblers often make such excuses as: It’s in the desk at work; A friend borrowedit; It got spent on family dinners, car repairs, loans to in-laws. Once the secret is uncovered, spouses usually fight the problem alone, bleeding inside.10.Anybody who is living with a compulsive gambler is totally overwhelmed. Theyare steeped in anger, resentment, depression, confusion. None of their personal efforts will ever stop a person from their addiction.11.His study reveals that people in V egas, Atlantic City and other gambling meccasshowed significantly higher suicide rates than people in non-gambling cities. 12.Rex was at a poker table in Gardena. In the small hours he hesitated about whetherto leave but finally decided to stay. The episode shows that it’s rea lly hard to quit gambling.Text Analysis1.Parts Paragraphs Main IdeasPart One Paras 1- 4 The authors give a brief account of the life experience of ahard-core gambler named Rex Coile.Part Two Paras 5 -15 The authors expound the problem of gambling addiction, itscauses and its attendant steep social price.Part Three Paras 16 - 22 Through further discussion of the example of Rex, the authorsreinforce the essay's thesis that the life of compulsivegamblers is a narrow box.

I felt myknees sinking lower and lower as if I were running across quicksand.4. 1) Operating a vehicle while intoxicated is a serious offence in itself, but few cases hit the headlines unless they involve serious injury.2) Ten years ago, when Bruce R., a 57-year-old insurance broker from Southern California, was on the verge of suicide after having gambled away the trust of his family and a small remnant of business partners, little help was available. He was, at one point, advised by two doctors that he just needed to get his gambling "under control"—which is like telling a drug addict to take drugs more moderately.3) The company was facing great financial problems due to the devastating effects of nationwide economic depression. Naturally the CEO’s sudden resignation at such a difficult time led to great resentment from the board of directors. The only hope they had was that the banks would keep the firm from bankruptcy by accepting a reorganization plan.5. 1) fall under 2) fall behind3) had fallen apart 4) fall back on5) fall to 6) had left off7) leave out 8) Leaving aside9) be left alone 10) left behindII.

T ranslationGamblers’ family members always pay a steep price. They not only have to endure the pain of having their wealth wiped away overnight, but they are also frequently overwhelmed with feelings of depression and hopelessness.A nationwide survey found that over 2 million adults identified a spouse's gambling as a significant factor in a prior divorce. The number of divorces in a county in Mississippi has nearly tripled since the advent of casinos. The county has also witnessed increases in domestic violence since then.A considerable body of evidence showed that the expansion of legally sanctioned gambling destroys individuals, ruins families, increases crime, and ultimately costs society far more than the revenues government collects.Part III Home Reading TaskText BComprehension Check1. d2. c3. d4. c5. a6. bTranslation洛塞莫尔的两个孩子还在上学，目前他已离婚，正在俄亥俄一家戒赌中心接受治疗。
