新视野大学英语1第三版读写教程答案U3Part II key to exercisesSection APre-reading activities1. Traditional classroom:. Advantages: more direct communication between the teacher and students; a better learning atmosphere.. Disadvantages: little interaction either among students or between students and the teacher;the teacher tending to dominate the class; writing on blackboard reducing efficiency. Multimedia learning:. Advantages: more vivid teaching materials;. disadvantages: too many distractions with too many pictures and videos in multimedia classrooms.Studying online:. advantages: being able to choose when and what you want to learn; easy access to the wide range of online information.. disadvantages: making it easier for students to copy answers from the Internet; lack of face-to-face communication between the teacher and students; the possibility for students to develop Internet addiction.2. . I prefer the multimedia way of learning. A multimedia classroom is vivid with teaching materials presented in different ways: slides, pictures, and even movies. Compared with a traditional classroom, a multimedia classroom is more interesting.. To be frank, I prefer to study online. In this way I can manage my own time. I can have my own priorities and do things at my own pace. It is simply what I want.3. . Yes. The Internet is indispensable in teaching and learning nowadays. It is hard to imagine whatit would be like without the Internet. We would have no easy or quick way to learn about the latest development of teaching and learning. We would miss the many interesting online courses; we couldn’t communicate effectively with teachers after class. We just can’t afford to lose the Internet. . No. teaching and learning had been carried out long before the Internet came into being. And people did just as well without the Internet or the computer. It is true that the Internet makes teaching and learning more convenient and more efficient, but it is by no means indispensable. I’m sure we can still teach or learn without the Internet.Reading comprehensionUnderstanding the text1.1. A fleet of laptops, smartphones and Internet connectivity 24 hours a day.2. wireless Internet access anywhere and anytime on campus.3. because smartphones could draw students’ attention and encourage sophisticated thinking.4. because too much time online can mean too little time I real-life studying or exercising or visiting with friends. If we spend too much time online, we will be cut off from the real world.5. they used the money to wire dorms with high-speed connections and equip their campuses with Wi-Fi networks.6. Becausethe university was afraid that it’s tech nology was not as advanced as that of other universities, it gave away free Apple iPads to compensate for its inferiority in this aspect.7. If a university can’t keep up with the rest f the world, or if it can’t provide high-bandwidth information as expected, it will be at a competitive disadvantage.8. it is mainly because they want to provide students with the most advanced free system.Critical thinking21 .Yes, I think so. Internet access is a must on campus. We students need the Internet to do research for our study, to obtain information to broaden our knowledge of the world, to communicate with family and friends, and to enrich our lives in our spare time.. No, I don’t think so. There are many potential disadvantages if Internet access is so ea sily accessible on campus. Some students may waste too much time I playing online games or chatting online, be tempted to visit “unhealthy” websites, or even become Internet-addicted and neglect their study.2 .It sounds like an awful idea to me. Obtaining knowledge is only part of learning. Learning not only gives us a wealth of knowledge, it also provides us with great vision, strong principles, social abilities, good manners, interpersonal skills and many more valuable attributes. This obviously cannot be realized by learning at home only with the computer..I think it is a good idea that students can study at home via the Internet in the future. Learning would become more flexible and accessible. This way, college education could become available to many more people, old or young, near or far, healthy or handicapped.3 . The Internet and smartphones have become an indispensable part of our daily life because they don’t cost much and they make communication much more convenient. We can talk to people, o r leave them messages almost anywhere and anytime. And very often we will get responses in no time.. With the Internet and smartphones becoming more and more popular, we are forgetting how to write with a pen or how to talk with people face to face. The more we use the Internet and smartphones, the less we meet our friends in real life. Even when friends meet face to face, instead of talking with each other, they all look at their smartphones, checking email or posting something on WeChat.4 .Life would be unimaginable without the Internet or smartphones. I depend on them to do everything, from study to communication, from shopping to entertaining. Without the Internet, the backing systems, the communications systems, in fact all key aspects closely related to peoples’ life will collapse. Life without the Internet would be terrible and simply unimaginable..Actually, I wouldn’t mind having a life without the Internet or smartphones. Without them, I would meet my family and friends face to face and spend more quality time together. I might take up some interesting hobbies or try something new. So, without them life might become even more colorful.Language focusWords in use31. competitive2. transform3. typical4. response5. adopted6. focused7. compensate8. analyze9. regulate10. estimateword building4Words learned new words formed -ry sceneryscene machinery-ivedetective detectcompare comparative explodeexplosiverepresent representative-izeModern modernize Character characterize Special specialize Computer computerize Summary summarize51. scenery2. machinery3. summarize4. specializes5. massive6. detect7. representative(s)8. characterize9. comparative10. modernize11. explosive12. computerizedbanked cloze61J 2H 3L 4N 5F 6I 7E 8A 9C 10OExpressions in use71. fired off2. keep up with3. set up4. account for5. stand out6. add to7. take the lead8. at a disadvantage9. in large part10. visit withstructured writing9It is not uncommon to see teenagers smoking today. Some of them smoke because of peerpressure. When they see some of their friends smoking, they feel the pressure to try it out in order to “fit in” with the crowd. Some other teenagers smoke because they w ant to imitate adults or appear to be mature. Teenagers like to imitate their favorite stars and adults around them. So, parents who smoke may set a bad example for their children. In conclusion, the causes of teenager smoking can be attributed to peer pressure and their intention to look like adults.Translation10伦敦地铁是英国的一个快速交通运输系统,服务于大伦敦的大部分地区。

A奥黛丽·赫本——人间天使1 奥黛丽·赫本在《蒂凡尼的早餐》、《龙凤配》、《罗马假日》、《窈窕淑女》、《战争与和平》和《直到永远》等出色电影中主演的许多角色让观众为之陶醉。
2 尽管在电影界获得成功,但她最愿意塑造的角色却并不在影片中,而是做两个儿子的模范母亲和联合国儿童基金会亲善大使,为饱受战争蹂躏的人们服务。
3 作为一名在纳粹占领下的祖国荷兰生活的小女孩,奥黛丽·赫本清楚战争所带来的野蛮、死亡和破坏。
由于受到侵略,家庭破产,奥黛丽经常食不果腹,营养不良。
她的父亲抛弃了家庭,两个舅舅也被俘,并且惨遭杀害。
奥黛丽被纳粹分子从大街上抓走,与准备被押往劳役营的人放在一起。
趁卫兵不注意,她飞快地跑开,惊险逃脱了,蜷缩着躲在一个满是耗子、又冷又脏的地下室里。

不过她并没有让自己的精神受到幼年生活中残酷现实的影响。

6 很快,奥黛丽就从营养不良的移民变成了国际知名的影星。
导演比利·怀尔德称赞她说:“奥黛丽行姿优美,言谈优雅。
”尽管她数度获得奥斯卡金像奖和其他演艺荣誉,奥黛丽觉得自己最重要的工作还是为那些需要帮助的人开展人道主义服务,以及当好两个儿子的母亲。
她经历了两次离婚,并忍受着战争记忆带给她的悲伤,然而,奥黛丽从不让这些悲伤支配自己,或者影响自己对美好未来的向往。
最后,奥黛丽遇到了她的灵魂伴侣,罗伯特·沃尔德斯,并和他一起度过了人生的最后12年。

I spent a few days at a hotel in Alice Springs and went to Ayers Rock and … Well, anyway, one day, I went out for a walk … in the outback.

I felt really frightened, but I remembered some advice I, I, er … um, I … I read in my guidebook: Don’t move, and don’t look at the dogs. So I froze, like a statue … I didn’t move … and I looked at a tree, not at the dogs, and didn’t move my eyes. The dogs were all around me, jumping and barking … I thought they were going to bite me. Then one dog did bite my arm, just a little, but still I didn’t move. In the end, after about 20 minutes, the dogs went away.

Even societies that are very rational and scientific are sometimes a little bit superstitious. For example, the United States is a country that is very advanced in science andtechnology. But American people sometimes believe in superstitions. Americans consider “13” an unlucky number. Some people in the United States also believe that if Friday falls on the 13th day of the month, they will have bad luck.Some Americans believe they will have bad luck if they walk under a ladder. Even if people say they are not superstitious, they will often avoid walking under a ladder. Often people consider it unlucky to break a mirror. If a person breaks a mirror, he or she will have seven years of bad luck. Americans also think they will have bad luck if a black cat crosses their path. A long time ago, people believed that black cats were actually witches.However, some things are thought to bring good luck. For instance, some Americans believe if they dream about a white cat, or step on their own shadow, or put a mirror just across the door, they will have good luck. Or if they catch a falling leaf on the first day of autumn, they will have good luck all winter. Others think if they blow out all the candles on their birthday cake in one blow, they will get whatever they want. And some people think they will have good luck if they find a penny on the ground and pick it up.Q1: What is this passage mainly about?Q2: According to the passage, what is considered as bad luck?Q3: Why is it considered bad luck to see a black cat crossing one’s path?Q4: According to the passage, what will bring people good luck?Passage 2ScriptsSome parts of the earth are more likely to have earthquakes than other parts. This is usually true of 1) mountainous areas because there the thickness of rocks is not even.It is easy to understand why people are so 2) frightened by earthquakes. People used to believe that when an earthquake 3) took place, the ground opened, swallowed great numbers of people, and then it closed. It was also thought that those people would 4) vanish forever. But now we know this is not what really happens.What we need to fear most is the effects of a serious earthquake, including fires, floods, and landslides. A powerful earthquake 5) occurred in Yellowstone National Park on August 17, 1959. The earthquake was 6) massive and very strong. It also caused the worst landslides in US historysince 1927.After the earthquake, some people said that they would never visit Yellowstone, because they were afraid they would be 7) caught in such a disaster caused by the earthquake. This is actually a foolish idea. Such a fear would 8) keep us away from beautiful mountains for the rest of our lives. Even though earthquakes happen every day, such a powerful earthquake like the Yellowstone one does not happen frequently at all. We should feel 9) grateful that very few of us will suffer such a bad natural disaster. Besides, if we know10) in advance and make careful preparations, the loss of lives could be avoided.。
UNIT3TEST A互联网时代的大学生活1 大学校园长久以来都是学术之地,也是新技术的前沿。
现在随着手提电脑和智能手机的大量出现,加上每天24小时不间断的网络连接,大学校园正在转而进入电子设备的新时代。
2 在典型的现代校园里,每幢建筑和大部分室外公共区域都提供无线互联网接入, 学生可以把手提电脑带到任何地方。
课堂上,她用手提电脑记笔记,有时如果教授的课一点都没意思,她就会给朋友发送即时信息或电子邮件。
在寝室,她甚至会给近在咫尺的室友发送即时信息。
她离不开智能手机,甚至对住在楼上的朋友也要发短信;在从上一堂课去下一堂课的路上她也要用智能手机听音乐。
3 欢迎来体验21世纪的大学生活:通过源源不断的信息流,学生之间、师生之间以及学生和课堂作业之间建立了电子化的联系,一天24小时,一周7天,从不间断。
在许多学校,无线互联网连接覆盖了校园的各个角落,大学整体上也因此成为世界上互联网最普及的地方。
4 学生们说他们非常看重动动手指就可获得无限的网上信息,还可以在凌晨两点给教授发电子邮件,并能在第二天早上收到教授的回复。
一位工程专业的学生说:“我觉得无论在课内还是在课外,我都拥有一种交流手段。
”5 很多学生不仅使用智能手机自创语体发短信,而且也用智能手机来做更正经的工作,比如练习外语、分析戏剧课的脚本等。
在一所大学的有关美国广播电台历史的课上,学生们用智能手机录下他们自己的广播节目。
教授这门课的教师说:“这提高了学生学习这门课的兴奋感。
”学校也鼓励教授录下授课内容并发布到网上。
一位一流大学的主管说:“我们意识到,像这样一种能够引起学生关注、并促使他们深入思考的工具也许大有潜力。
”6 对于大多数本科生来说,永不间断的互联网是大学生活的动力。
网络工具不只是玩具,而且是储存和管理几乎各种信息的强大工具。
随着世界上越来越多的人使用这些工具,它们已经变得不可或缺。
所以,学生应该运用互联网所创造的奇迹来完成作业、复习讲座提纲、参与课堂讨论、与朋友们进行网上社交。
