大学英语第三册1：12-15I suspect not everyone who loves the country would be happy living the way we do.It takes a couple of special qualities.One is a tolerance for solitude.Because we are so busy and on such a tight,we don't entertain much.During the growing season there is no time for socializing anyway.Jim and Emily are involved in school activitives,but they too spend most of their time at home.The other requirement is energy--a lot of it.The way to make selfsufficiency work on a small scale is to resist the temptation to buy a tractor and other expensive laborsaving devices.Instead,you do the work yourself.The only machinery we own (not counting the lawn mower)is a little threehorsepower rotary cultivator and a 16-inch chain saw.How much longer we'll have enough energy to stay on here is anybody's guess--perhaps for quite a while,perhaps not.When the time comes,we'll leave with a feeling of sorrow but also with a sense of pride at what we've been able to accomplish.We should make a fair profit on the sale of the place,too.We've invested about $35000 of our own money in it,and we could just about double that if we sold today.But this is not a good time to sell.Once economic conditions improve,however,demand for farms like ours should be strong again.We didn't move here primarily to earn money though.We came because we wanted to improve the quality of our lives.When I watch Emily collecting eggs in the evening,fishing with Jim on the river or enjoying an oldfashioned picnic in the orchard with the entire family,I know we've found just what we were looking for.大学英语第三册2：4-5Yet this stop was only part of a much larger mission for me.Josiah Henson is but one name on a long list of courageous men and women who together forged the Underground Railroad,a secret web of escape routes Between 1820 and 1860,as many as 100000 slaves traveled the Railroad to freedom.In October 2000,President Clinton authorized $16 million for the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center to honor this first great civil-rights stuggle in the U.S.the center is scheduled to open in 2004 in Cincinnati.And it's about time.For the heroes of the Underground Railroad remain too little remembered,their exploits still largely unsung.I was intent on telling their stories.大学英语第三册3:4-8It has been replaced by dead-bolt locks,security chains,electronic alarm systems and trip wires hooked up to a police station or private guard firm.Many suburban families have sliding glass doors on their patios,with steel bars elegantly built in so no one can pry the doors open.It is not uncommon,in the most pleasant of homes,to see pasted on the windows small notices announcing that the premises are under surveillance by this security force or that guard company.The lock is the new symbol of America.Indeed,a recent publicservice advertisement by a large insurance company featured not charts showing how much at risk we are,but a picture of a child's bicycle with the nowusual padlock attached to it.The ad pointed out that,yes,it is the insurance companies that pay for stolen goods,but who is going to pay for what the new atmosphere of distrust and fear is doing to our way of life?Who is going to make the psychic payment for the transformation of American from the Land of the Free to the Land of the Lock?For that is what has happened.We have become so used to defending ourselves against the new atmosphere of American life,so used to putting up barriers,that we have not had time to think about what it may mean.大学英语第三册4:4-11It was actually Bart Cameron's error and you'll have to understand about Bart Cameron.He's the sheriff at Twin Gulch,Idaho,and I'm his deputy.Bart Cameron is an impatient man and he gets most impatient when he has to work up his income tax.You see,besides being sheriff,he also owns and runs the general store,he's got some shares in a sheep ranch,he's got a kind of pension for being a disabled veteran(bad knee)and a few other things like that.Naturally,it makes his tax figures complicated.It wouldn't be so bad if he'd let a taxman work on the forms with him,but he insists on doing it himself and it makes him a bitter man.By April 14,he isn't approachable.So it's too bad the flying saucer landed on April 14,1956.I saw it land.My chair was backed up against the wall in the sheriff's office and I was looking at the stars through the windows and wondering if I ought to knock off and hit the sack or keep on listening to Cameron curse real steady as he went over his columns of figures for the hundred twentyseventh time.It looked like a shooting star at first, but then the track of light broadened into two things that looked like rocket exhausts and the thing came down without a sound.Two men got out.I couldn't say anything or do anything.I couldn't choke or point;I couldn't even bug my eyes.I just sat there.Cameron? He never looked up.大学英语第三册5:21-23Always the college professor,my dad had carefully avoided anything he considered too sentimental,so I knew how moved he was to write me that,after having helped educate many young people,he now felt that his best results included his own son.The Reverend Nelson wrote that his decades as a"simple,old-fashioned principal"had ended with schools undergoing such swift changes that he had retired in self-doubt."I heard more of what I had done wrong than what I did right,"he said,adding that my letter had brought him welcome reassurance that his career had been appreciated.A glance at Grandma's familiar handwriting brought back in a flash memories of standing alongside her white rocking chair,watching her"settin,down"some letter to relatives.Character by character,Grandma would slowly accomplish one word,then the next,so that a finished page would consume hours.I wept over the page representing my Grandma's recent hours invested in expressing her loving gratefulness to me--whom she used to diaper!大学英语第三册6:18-20Old Behrman was a painter who lived on the ground floor beneath them.He was past sixty and had a long white beard curling down over his chest.Despite looking the part,Behrman was a failure in art.For forty years he had been always about to paint a masterpiece,but had never yet begun it.He earned a little by serving as a model to those young artists who could not pay the price of a professional.He drand gin to excess,and still talked of his coming masterpiece.For the rest he was a fierce little old man,who mocked terribly at softness in any one,and who regarded himself as guard dog to the two young artists in the studio above.Sue found Behrman smelling strongly of gin in his dimly lighted studio below.In one corner was a blank canvas on an easel that had been waiting there for twenty-five years to receive the first line of the masterpiece.She told him of Johnsy's fancy,and how she feared she would,indeed,light and fragile as a leaf herself ,float away,when her slight hold upon the world grew weaker.Old Behrman,with his red eyes plainly streaming,shouted his contempt for such foolish imaginings. "What!"he cried."Are there people in the world foolish enough to die because leafs drop off from a vine ?I have never heard of such a thing.Why do you allow such silly ideas to come into that head of hers?God!This is not a place in which one so good as Miss Johnsy should lie sick.Some day I will paint a masterpiece,and we shall all go away.Yes."。

Whereas You Were an Insensitive Fool...The simple truth is that if you want to be heard by your husband, you must speak a language he understands.如果你想你丈夫听你的，你就必须说他能听懂的语言，这是一个简单的事实。

An example: A friend of mine is married to a wealthy money waster(spendthrift) who used to drive like a maniac （madman）—tailgating, speeding, weaving between lanes. My friend repeatedly expressed her fear about his dangerous habits but he didn’t modify his behavior; money was the language he spoke. She gave him one fina l warning: slow down or else. He didn’t, so without any fanfare, she withdrew $40,000 from their bank accounts and bought herself a luxury convertible. I hear he’s a pretty safe driver now.举个例子：我的一个朋友，她的丈夫很有钱，爱挥霍，开起车子来像个疯子：追逼前车、超速、随意变道。

我的朋友不止一次对她丈夫表示这种危险的驾车习惯让人害怕，但他不曾有任何改变；钱是他能听懂的语言。

我朋友给了最后通牒：开慢点，否则……他当然没有听进去，于是我朋友从他们的银行账户里取了40000美元给自己买了辆豪华敞篷跑车，当然这样做并不是为了炫耀。

Unit 3Text A Audrey Hepburn — A true angel in this world1 Audrey Hepburn thrilled audiences with starring roles in noteworthy films like Breakfast at Tiffany's, Sabrina, Roman Holiday, My Fair Lady, War and Peace, and Always.2 Despite her success in the film domain, the roles she most preferred portraying were not in movies. She was an exemplary mother to her two sons and a UNICEF (the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund) Ambassador of Goodwill serving victims in war-torn countries.3 As a young girl during the Nazi occupation of her native Holland, Audrey Hepburn was aware of the brutality, death, and destruction of war. She was hungry and malnourished, as her family was bankrupted as a result of the invasion. Audrey's father abandoned the family, and two of her uncles were taken captive and killed. Audrey was grabbed off the street by Nazis and placed in line to be sent to a work camp. When the guards glanced away she darted off, barely escaping, and huddled ina cold, foul basement full of rats.4 The little girl who would become the world's most magical actress began as an anonymous refugee confronting life's horrors and fragility firsthand. But she refused to allow her spirit to be afflicted by the desperate reality of her young life. Instead, she transcended those challenges but never forgot what it felt like to suffer, to be hungry, alone and helpless.5 After the war, Audrey and her mother left Holland, arriving in London as poor immigrants. Her dream of becoming a prime dancer drove her into a rigorous schedule at a famous ballet school. Later, she was spotted by a producer and eventually landed a role in the film Roman Holiday starring Gregory Peck, one of Hollywood's top leading men.6 Soon, Audrey was transformed from a malnourished immigrant to an internationally famous movie star. Director Billy Wilder complimented her, saying, "Audrey walked beautifully, she spoke beautifully." Although she won many Academy Awards and other honors for acting, Audrey felt that her most significant work was humanitarian work with those in need, and as the mother to her two sons. She suffered through two divorces and from her memories of the war. Yet, Audrey never let her sadness overcome her or jeopardize her hope for a brighter future. Audrey finally met her soul mate, Robert Wolders, and spent the last 12 years of her life with him.7 Becoming famous never changed Audrey's generous and compassionate character. She felt a deep sense of responsibility to alleviate suffering of those in need, especially children. Friends said Audrey had a complete lack of ego and accepted and appreciated others as they were.8 Though she became very wealthy, she owned only one home in Switzerland. For Audrey it wasa paradise where she could hide from the world with her beloved family, work in her garden and take long walks in nature.9 In 1988, Audrey was appointed a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF designed to provide emergency food and healthcare to children suffering the destruction of war or other catastrophes. In that role, her lifelong passion for helping those in need, found its greatest calling.10 She turned down three million dollars to pen her autobiography and instead accepted one dollar a year in the more conscientious role as diplomat for UNICEF. For seven months out of each of her last five years, she and Robby left the peace and beauty in their cozy home to embark on outreach trips into some of the most difficult places on earth. From Bangladesh, Sudan, India, Vietnam, Kenya, Ethiopia, Central and South America, to Somalia, Audrey Hepburn traveled representing UNICEF, making over 50 emotionally draining and physically dangerous missions into bleak destinations to raise world awareness of wars and droughts. Having been a victim of war, she understood the blessing of being the beneficiary of food, clothing, and, most of all, hope.11 Audrey felt it was wicked that billions of children were deprived of simple joys and drowned in overwhelming misery. She believed deeply in the ideology that all people share in the duty to care for those in need. Audrey Hepburn was always ready to lead by example. She said: "When you deny childhood, you deny life." She saw UNICEF's work as an integral, sacred force in people's lives and said of UNICEF's results, "Anyone who doesn't believe in miracles is not a realist."12 In 1992, Audrey was stricken by cancer. She, Robby and her two sons returned to their home in Switzerland for their last Christmas together.13 Audrey's long-time friend and world-famous French fashion designer, Hubert de Givenchy, spoke to his cherished friend for the last time, just before she died. He said she was "... serene at the end because she knew she had achieved everything with perfection".14 Audrey Hepburn's passion for service was enduring. Even as her life ended at 63 years of age, she remained a gracious woman who perpetually signified simplicity, charity, charm and kindness.15 The majesty of Audrey Hepburn's spirit of social responsibility and dedication lives on in her words: "Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm. As you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others." And "For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone."Unit 3Text B A life in filmSteven had to face rejections and obstacles in his film-creating efforts, but his persistence and dedication transformed the obstacles into an alternative route to success.1 At 12 years old, Steven Spielberg was already visiting film shootings at Universal Studios in his office suit, a packed lunch tucked into his briefcase. The young boy tried to immerse himself in film in any way possible. He had been given an administrative job at Universal Studios from a friend of his father's, and every day, even though he didn't have a legitimate security pass, he would try to manipulate his way past the guards and into his personal paradise. Such persistence is hardly surprising from a boy whose lifelong conviction was to "Make sure you are right and go on!" (adopted from a 1954 Disney film).2 When Steven was eight years old, his father gave him a Brownie 8 mm film camera as his birthday present. Steven immediately began collecting footage of family events, and he simulated action scenes with his miniature toy spacecraft, populating his films with his neighborhood friends as actors. People quickly began to recognize his terrific talent, and he won a prize for cinematography for his early westernThe Last Gunfight; years later, he won a national contest for his film Escape to Nowhere. His film Firelight was twice analyzed by a national newspaper and was presented in the city theater as if it were a Hollywood premiere. By the time he was 17 years old, Steven had established himself as a director with the artistic intuition of a man twice his age.3 His achievements are certainly related to the personal obstacles and setbacks he faced from an early age. Steven's family moved often, so that he was constantly trying to find his place in a turbulent environment with new people. Despite his natural intelligence, Steven had a carefree attitude and put little effort into school. He consistently earned only a C average, or lower. Socially, he wasn't athletic or popular, and since his conspicuous interest in film made him seem eccentric, classmates shunned and mocked him.4 His home life was not ideal either, as his father's rigid engineering temperament could not understand his or his mother's artistic personalities. Steven would miss his father when he was gone for long work trips, and then reverted to furiously arguing with him as soon as he returned. Finally, when he was in high school, his parents ended their unhappy marriage with a divorce. The theme of the lack of a father figure consistently infected Steven's films.5 Unfriendly surroundings at home and school made Steven strive even harder to achieve in the film world. He applied to two of the best film schools in the country: the University of Southern California and the University of California, Los Angeles. But even with a formidable 10 years of experiences in filmmaking and his friends atUniversal Studios endorsing him, his grades were too poor, and he was flatly turned down at both institutions.6 Unwilling to give up, Steven entered the California State University, where he hoped the program in TV and radio might open his way to Hollywood. Unfortunately, the university was not suited to his experience, and one academician recalled, "Steven knew more about cameras, mounts, and lenses than anyone else in the department. He could teach there." Despite his manifest talent, his low grades sabotaged transfer attempts, forcing real film schools to withhold acceptance.7 Steven contrived to rectify the situation on his own by diverting his attention away from academics. He cleaned his old suit and briefcase and returned to visiting Universal Studios where he had worked as a boy. He discreetly sneaked into any department he could, such as shooting rooms, editing and sound-mixing studios, and he quietly watched until he was discovered and ordered to leave. Introducing himself under the pretext of being either an actor, director, or producer, he would invite people to dinner to make connections and learn as much as he could. Even though he was caught and expelled at least once a day, he always returned to smuggle himself back in again.8 Steven repeatedly tried to prove himself to the Universal executives, while working in a cafeteria to save up money for equipment. He would discretely create scenes and then shoot and re-shoot his movies. He kept upgrading from 8 to 16 and finally 35 mm film before he was allowed a screening. Finally, his film Amblin was given a chance in front of the executives. It was a short, silent film and the plot differed greatly from the sci-fiand combat films that would later predominate Steven's career. Still, the short film was awesome enough to win Steven, only 21 years old, a seven-year contract with Universal Studios.9 After directing smaller TV dramas and low-budget projects, Steven earned the chance to direct his big Hollywood debut: a thriller film starring a shark! Jaws was a box office hit and it made Steven famous. He continued his relationship with Universal Studios to produce the notable moviesE.T., Jurassic Park, and Schindler's List.10 As his first producer said, "It is not by any coincidence that Steven is in his present position." Instead, it is Steven's committed spirit that has strengthened him in standing fast against all rejections, prejudice and skepticism and driven him to keep moving onward.。

Unit 3 Diverse CulturesReading and ThinkingWednesday, 21 June6月21日，星期三Today was my first day back in San Francisco after camping in the Redwood Forest and visiting the wine country of Napa Valley. I have to admit that it definitely feels good to be back in the city again. And what a city—a city that was able to rebuild itself after the earthquake that occurred in 1906. There are so many beautiful old buildings—many siting on top of big hills, offering great views of the city, the ocean, and the Golden Gate Bridge.在红杉林露营并参观了纳帕谷酒乡后，今天是我回到旧金山的第一天。

我得承认，再次回到城里的感觉实在是太棒了。

多么神奇的一座城市啊——一座1906年大地震后重建的城市。

这里有众多美丽的古建筑——不少坐落于大山之巅，城市、大海和金门大桥美景尽收眼底。

My hotel is near downtown, in the Mission District, one of the oldest parts of the city. Many of the people living here are from Mexico or Central America. This district used to be a poor area of town, but is now a centre for art, music, and food. In fact, an art movement called the “Mission School” started here. It’s influenced by graffiti art and comic art. I walked around looking at the street art for a few hours. It was quite modern and lively. Afterwards, I ate some delicious Mexican-Chinese noodles from a food truck. A real mix of cultures here!我住的旅馆靠近市中心，位于教会区，这是旧金山最古老的街区之一。

WELCOME TO CHINATOWN!欢迎来到唐人街！The Chinatown in San Francisco is the biggest in America，and also the oldest. It is a very popular tourist draw that receives more visitors each year than even the Golden Gate Bridge. The climate is mild all year round，meaning it is always a good time to visit.旧金山的唐人街是美国最大的，也是最古老的。

这是一个非常受欢迎的旅游景点，每年接待的游客甚至比金门桥还要多。

这里一年四季气候温和，意味着一年四季都是旅游的好时节。

Historically，Chinese immigrants settled in the area during the railroad construction and gold rush period. What started as a residential area for Chinese immigrants then turned into a centre for Chinese culture. The majority of residents in Chinatown are still ethnic Chinese;many of whom do not speak English fluently. This allows visitors to experience a real taste of China.历史上，中国移民在铁路建设和淘金热时期就定居于此。

这里最初是中国移民的居住区，后来变成了中国文化的中心。

唐人街的大多数居民仍然是华人，其中许多人英语说得不流利。

Catching Crabs1 In the fall of our final year, our mood changed. the relaxed atmosphere of the preceding summer semester, the impromptu ball games, the boating on the Charles River, the late-night parties had disappeared, and we all started to get our heads down, studying late, and attendance at classes rose steeply again. We all sensed we were coming to the end of our stay here, that we would never get a chance like this again, and we became determined not to waste it. Most important of course were the final exams in April and May in the following year. No one wanted the humiliation of finishing last in class, so the peer group pressure to work hard was strong. Libraries which were once empty after five o'clock in the afternoon were standing room only until the early hours of the morning, and guys wore the bags under their eyes and their pale, sleepy faces with pride, like medals proving their diligence.大学最后一年的秋天，我们的心情变了。

One is a tolerance for solitude. Because we are so busy and on such a tight budget, we don't entertain much. During the growing season there is no time for socializing anyway. Jim and Emily are involved in school activities, but they too spend most of their time at home.我想，不是所有热爱乡村的人都会乐意过我们这种生活的。

这种生活需要一些特殊的素质。

其一是耐得住寂寞。

由于我们如此忙碌，手头又紧，我们很少请客。

在作物生长季节，根本就没工夫参加社交活动。

吉米和埃米莉虽然参加学校的各种活动，但他俩大多数时间也呆在家里。

The other requirement is energy -- a lot of it. The way to make self-sufficiency work on a small scale is to resist the temptation to buy a tractor and other expensive laborsaving devices. Instead, you do the work yourself. The only machinery we own (not counting the lawn mower) is a little three-horsepower rotary cultivator and a 16-inch chain saw.另一项要求是体力――相当大的体力。
