新标准大学英语综合教程1课后参考翻译Unit 1英译汉：T oday, a gap year refers mostly to a year taken before starting university or college. During their gap year, American students either engage in advanced academic courses or do some volunteer work to improve their knowledge, maturity, decision-making, leadership, independence, self-sufficiency and more, thus improving their résumés before going to college. British and European students, however, take a much more holiday-style approach to the gap year by generally working for 3–6 months and then travelling around the world before college begins. This is intended to expand their minds, personal confidence, experiences and interests prior to college. It is a much less structured approach than taken in the United States, and is generally viewed by parents as a formative year for young adults to become independent and learn a great deal of responsibility prior to engaging in university life.参考译文：如今，间隔年最为普遍的含义是指上大学前的一年。

Key to Exercises NSCE Book 1Unit FiveActive reading (1)Reading and understanding4 Answer the questions.1 Why does Cathy ask if Nelly is alone?Because Cathy wants to talk to Nelly in private about a secret (Edgar’s proposal of marriage).2 Why does Cathy want to know where Heathcliff is?Because Cathy wants to make sure that she is alone with Nelly. She wants to talk about Edgar and Heathcliff, so she wouldn’t want either of them to hear the conversation.3 What news does Cathy give Nelly?Cathy tells Nelly that Edgar has proposed to her and she has accepted him.4 What does she want Nelly to tell her?She wants Nelly to say whether she should have accepted or refused Edgar’s proposal.5 What does Nelly think is the most important thing in a marriage?Love, so she asks whether Cathy loves Edgar as the first consideration.6 What happens in Cathy’s dream?She goes to heaven, but is broken-hearted to be away from home. The angels send her back home where she sobs for joy. It seems for Cathy this means she will be unhappy with Edgar. She has “no more business” to marry him than to be in heaven, where, in the dream, she is unhappy.7 What does Cathy say about Heathcliff?She loves him and feels that they have the same soul, but it would degrade her to marry him. (He was found homeless on the street, so he had a poor social background.)6 How does Cathy feel about Edgar?Cathy thinks she and Edgar have different souls, “as different as a moonbeam from lightning, or frost from fire”.Dealing with unfamiliar words5 Match the words in the box with their definitions.1 to say something very quietly (whisper)2 to say something suddenly and loudly (exclaim)3 to cry because you feel strong emotion (weep)4 to cry noisily, taking short breaths (sob)5 to promise to do something (pledge)6 to say that you did not do something (deny)7 to stop someone from doing something, like speaking (interrupt)8 to start something again, like speaking (resume)9 to breathe out slowly, especially because you are sad (sigh)10 to say the opposite of what someone has said is true (contradict)Now check (¸) the reporting verbs which give most information about emotions. exclaim, weep, sob, pledge, sigh, contradict6 Replace the underlined words with the correct form of the words in the box.1 He was resting with his knees on the ground beside her when he asked her to marry him.
