U4 AHeroes among us我们身边的英雄Who's a hero these days? In an era of heightened heroism, the word hero has become more common. We use hero to describe both victims and survivors of all kinds of difficulties and tragedies. Who are the heroes among us?谁是当今的英雄？在一个英雄主义发扬光大的时代，“英雄”一词已经变得更加常见。

我们把各种困难和悲剧的受害者和幸存者都称为“英雄”。

那么，我们身边哪些人是英雄呢？In the days subsequent to a mass shooting in Tucson, Arizona, many described 20-year-old political associate Daniel Hernandez as a hero. During the horrible shooting, he courageously ran through the danger to save the life of one of the victims, his boss and friend, congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. Daniel held her head up so she could breathe and applied pressure to her wounds. He spoke tender words of sympathy, telling her that he would find her husband and her parents and that everything would be fine. And he never left her side, staying beside her in the ambulance all the way to the hospital.在亚利桑那州图森市枪击案发生后的日子里，许多人都把20 岁的政界同事丹尼尔•赫尔南德兹描述为英雄。

College sweethearts大学情侣1 I smile at my two lovely daughters and they seem so much more mature than we, their parents, when we were college sweethearts. Linda, who's 21, had a boyfriend in her freshman year she thought she would marry, but they're not together anymore. Melissa, who's 19, hasn't had a steady boyfriend yet. My daughters wonder when they will meet "The One", their great love. They think their father and I had a classic fairy-tale romance heading for marriage from the outset. Perhaps, they're right but it didn't seem so at the time. In a way, love just happens when you least expect it. Who would have thought that Butch and I would end up getting married to each other?

Unit 1Section A Time-C on scious America nsI ・ AbstractThis passage shows the way of Americans regarding time。

America ns are famous for their time-consciousness. His/her belief is that no one stands still. No moving ahead means falling behind・ This results in a country that people of it devote themselves into researching, experimenting and exploring・Time is the most important thing for Americans lives・On one hand, Americans try their best to save up time by different ways・ They are in hurry to get their destinatJon, push the others in order to finish their shopping quickly. Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in America.

Present-orientated cultures hold that the moment has the most significance・ For them, the future is vague, ambiguous, and unknown and what is real exists I the here and now.Future-orientated cultures, such as the one found in the United States, emphasize the future and expect it to be grander and nicer than the present・III. New Words■v. plan the spending of (time, money, etc.), or provide (time, money) in the plan 必编入预算；设计使用Vi.安排开支n.预算a.便宜的，廉价的She budgeted for buying a new car.她为了买新汽车而计划节省开支。

新视野三版读写B2U4Te x t AC o ll e g e s w ee t h ea r t s1 I smile at my two lovely daughters and they seem so much more mature than we, their parents, when we were college sweethearts. Linda, who's 21, had a boyfriend in her freshman year she thought she would marry, but they're not together anymore. Melissa, who's 19, hasn't had a steady boyfriend yet. My daughters wonder when they will meet "The One", their great love. They think their father and I had a classic fairy-tale romance heading for marriage from the outset. Perhaps, they're right but it didn't seem so at the time. In a way, love just happens when you least expect it. Who would have thought that Butch and I would end up getting married to each other? He became my boyfriend because of my shallow agenda: I wanted a cute boyfriend!2 We met through my college roommate at the university cafeteria. That fateful night, I was merely curious, but for him I think it was love at first sight. "You have beautiful eyes", he said as he gazed at my face. He kept staring at me all night long. I really wasn't that interested for two reasons. First, he looked like he was a really wild boy, maybe even dangerous. Second, although he was very cute, he seemed a little weird.3 Riding on his bicycle, he'd ride past my dorm as if "by accident" and pretendto be surprised to see me. I liked the attention but was cautious about his wild, dynamic personality. He had a charming way with words which would charm any girl. Fear came over me when I started to fall in love. His exciting "bad boy image" was just too tempting to resist. What was it that attracted me? I always had an excellent reputation. My concentration was solely on my studies to get superior grades. But for what? College is supposedto be a time of great learning and also some fun. I had nearly achieved a great education, and graduation was just one semester away. But I hadn't had any fun; my life was stale with no component of fun! I needed a boyfriend.Not just any boyfriend.He had to be cute. My goal that semester became: Be ambitious and grab the cutest boyfriend I can find.4 I worried what he'd think of me. True, we lived in a time when a dramatic shiftin sexual attitudes was taking place, but I was a traditional girl who wasn't ready for the new ways that seemed common on campus. Butch looked superb! I was not immune to his personality, but I was scared. The night when he announced to the world that I was his girlfriend, I went alongwith him. And then I suddenly thought: "Oh my gosh! Am I his girlfriend? How did that happen?" Then he whispered sweet words in my ear and said, "I'm going to marry you one day and I will be a lawyer. You will see."5 I was laughing inside and said to myself, "I'd never marry this guy. He's a rebel without a good future. He's my boyfriend because I hate my boring student life. I just want to have fun."6 Sure enough, the following month, I found out he had failed all hiscourses. Consequently, he was going to be expelled from the university. To my disgust, he seemed resigned to his fate. I knew there was hope, so I led him to the college secretary for reconsideration.7 "You are going to graduate with a BA in political science from UPenn and proceed to the College of Law," I told him, lodging an appeal on his behalf, which was approved. Butch was granted reconsideration. And, once we became steadies, he coordinated his studies and social life, passingall of his classes. He eventually studied law.8 Despite Butch's somewhat wild character, at his core, he is always a perfect gentleman and deserves a lot of credit for that.True, he'd sometimes take the liberty of displaying his love by planting a kiss on my lips right in front of my astonished friends who watched and disapproved. But the truth is we had a pure and responsible relationship for seven full years. Sitting by the palm trees, hand in hand, we would listen to romantic songs, watch the sunset, and weave dreams of being together with children of our own, forever.9 Two years passed in a blur. One day, Butch took me by surprise ashe knelt down and proposed marriage holding a dozen red roses! Filled with deep emotion, I confessed my love for him, "How roooomaaaantic!!" Then my brain woke up from fantasy land. I cried out, "Good heavens. No! We're too young to tie the knot. We haven't even graduated from college yet!" I really loved him but was pessimistic about our chances for success.10 We married five years later.11 Our faithful journey of love and learning took us down rocky roads of hardship and on smooth easy-going highways. It is a long, romantic, sometimes crazy, love story that sums up a 29-year long honeymoon togetheras a couple who are still madly in love with each other. Our love commenced with a casual attraction but bloomed into a mature love and rich life.L a ngu a g e P o i n t s:1I s m il e a t m y t w o l ov e l y d a ugh t e r s a nd t h e y s ee m so m uch m o r e m a t u r e t h a n w e, t h e i r p a r e n t s,w h e n w e w e r e co ll e g e s w ee t h ea r t s.(Pa r a.1)Mea n i ng b e yond w o r ds:Married to her college sweetheart,the author now is happy with her family and two grown daughters.N o t e:College sweethearts refer to someone with whom one is in love and by whom oneis loved at college;sweetheart is equivalent to lover,darling,beloved,or dear.For example:Well done,sweetheart,we are all so proud of you.做得好，宝贝，我们以你为荣。

Unit 4 Text A大学情侣1 我微笑着看着我那两个可爱的女儿，她们似乎比她们的父母还是大学情侣那会儿更为成熟。

琳达，21岁，在大学一年级交过一个男友，她曾以为会跟那个男孩结婚，但他们已不再来往了。

梅丽莎，19岁，还没有一个固定的男友。

我的女儿不知何时才能遇到她们的那个“唯一”，她们伟大的爱。

她们认为她们的父亲和我有着一段经典的、童话般的浪漫史，从一开始就直奔婚姻的殿堂。

也许，她们是正确的，但在那时似乎并不是那么回事。

在某种程度上，爱神恰恰在你最没准备时来临。

谁曾想到，布奇和我最终会结婚呢？他之所以成为我男友，只是因为当时我那肤浅的打算：我要找一个可爱的男友！2 我们通过我的大学室友介绍在大学食堂相识。

在那个命中注定的夜晚，我只是好奇，但对他而言，我认为是一见钟情。

他凝视着我的脸，说：“你有一双美丽的眼睛。

” 他整个晚上一直盯着我。

我真的对他没那么感兴趣，其原因有二。

首先，他看起来就像是一个野小子，甚至还有些危险。

其次，虽然他很可爱，却似乎有点怪异。

3 他骑着自行车经过我的宿舍，装作与我“偶遇”，看到我时还假装惊讶。

我喜欢被重视的感觉，但对他的野性和充满活力的个性却小心谨慎。

他很会说话，这会迷倒任何女孩。

当我开始爱上他时，恐惧向我袭来。

他那令人激动的“坏小子形象”简直太诱人了。

究竟是什么吸引了我？我，一直口碑极好。

为了获得优异的成绩，我的注意力只专注在自己的学习上。

但又怎么样呢？大学应该是学习的好时间，可也应该有一些乐趣。

我已几乎达成了伟大的教育目标，离毕业只有一学期之遥了。

但我却还没有享受过任何乐趣，我的生活乏味，没有一点新鲜感！我需要一个男朋友，当然不是任何男朋友。

他必须很可爱。

于是我那个学期的目标就成为：雄心勃勃，抓住一个我能找到的最可爱的男友。

4 我担心他会怎么看我。

不错，我们生活在一个性观念正在发生戏剧性转变的时代，但我是一个传统的女孩，对在校园里似乎常见的新方式还没有心理准备。
