For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs. And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important. At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy. 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.

He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel. He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.

It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones. Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.。

Unit 1练习答案-全新版大学进阶英语-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company OnelUnit 1 Key to ExercisesOpener1.Mr. Qian Xuesen was a distinguished and world-renowned rocket scientist. Steve Jobs was a famous American entrepreneur, the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc.2.Both of them were dream pursuers and hard workers who finally succeeded in fulfilling their dreams in their own specialized domains. Qian Xuesen became universally acknowledged as the father of China’s space programs, and Steve Jobs came to fame as a creative entrepreneur who revolutionized many products, including personal computers and smartphones.3.In the early 1950s, Qian, a scientist working in the United States, suffered serious persecution by the US government just because he sympathized with China. However, he remained firm and overcame lots of difficulties and returned to his motherland in the end. Following that, he devoted himself whole-heartedly to the development of China’s nuclear weapons program. As to Jobs, he also had to overcome a lot of obstacles on his way to success. Once he was forced out of Apple, the company he had co-founded. But years later he came back and became its CEO, and led the world in tablet computing and smartphones.Reading & Interacting1.Understanding the Text2.Text OrganizationThe Development of the Writer’s Skills as a DJTI EMI Majoe- Evanij /tl QA■Thrm wBi fllu-ara mueit（）□ inhia■He- kxmi to MelnQkm Led ZeppcLu, Bab Murky, Jadcsca.■Hit 欣id who:pkyed dlew, folk, d的出 /周mwlc frcm 9th打皓On. his.iSth birthdari,2Hk dad asked him tn dwisynt Ihe- Estinir』班he DVOUM L加旬口t him 阳口fat 屯favv u He i3“-on. 鼻禽DJ And 力守忸HMF-A-5Hr ailed! si wdLknwu DJ -nal Mr to bde hrtori叼< e曲 fw few&Whun be Parted dEtp.）1ng d.1 皿血4Ek 51s楫up, iiLtcodjoed hli^sdE 口od 中IDUSJC Lelbng pe口出thur± Jit力油+ djeuLKow utieti he perform¥■ Ffels 很iful. vitib bl- body auLomjaticdly.S.■ Hff can heur some of tfhu kniH frequEncirs and ieel the-belt in hiss fw<.・i-k> LTMIU Ecftw 由b ihol: tumj ih# muHe into A fasipu-lAr we As■H A plm ⑪ Borts 口E gettoprtfcws. odk5fr part ire W enwiBprehension Check3.1Focusing on the main ideasRobbie Wilde has been enjoying his life as a DJ.

I’m a freshman at Peking University a nd I’m majoring in chemistry.At college we have to study a foreign language. I choose English because I li ke listening to English programs on the radio and TV. I also like British and American pop songs. Some day I hope to visit Britain and the United States.I started learning English several ye ars ago and I’m getting better at it. My fa vorite activity is listening, especially listening to songs and stories. My big pro blem is, however, speaking. I feel nervous whenever I speak. And I never see m to know what to say when people talk to me. But I’ve decided to overcom e my shyness and learn to speak English by speaking as much as I can.Hi, my name is Virginia Wang. I’m a library science major at the National U niversity of Singapore. In our country, English is important. It is one of the of ficial languages and you have to be fluent to English to get a good job.I’ve been studying English since high school. I’m good at reading because I li ke learning about new things and new ideas. There are so many books and art icles written in English. Our textbooks at the university are in English, too. I know writing is also very important, but I find it rally difficult.When I graduate from the university I would like a job in the city library wh ere I can read all kinds of new books.Part CExercise:How to Improve Listening ComprehensionAmong the four skills of listening , speaking, reading and writing, I find listening most difficult, because I worry about the words I don't know. Now I am trying to focus on the general idea,not worrying about he new words. This makes me feel good, because I know I have understood something. Then, I listen againcarefully and if I have any problems I play the difficult part again. In this way I come to understand better both the main ideaand the details of the listening text.Unit 2Part ACommunicative Function1.closing2.opening3.closing4.opening5.opening6.openingListening Strategy1. a2. b3. b4. a5. b6. a7. b8. a9. b 10. bPart BTextExercise 1:1. 1) b 2) c 3) a2. dExercise 2:1. a. age b. money c. people's appearance2. a. ...say that again?

Some people are so afraid of making mistakes that they never open their mouths. And that’s the biggest mistake of all. Now if you have cou rage and are ready to make a few errors, what do you say?First of all, you have to open the conversation. Finding an appropriate topic is half the battle. Some topics, such as the weather and news, work well. But o thers, such as age, money or people’s appearance do not. The following are so me good ways to open a conversation.Weather –I t sure is cold today, isn’t it?News –Did you hear about that terrible forest fire?A conversation in a foreign language doesn’t always go smoothly. Sometimes your partner talks too fast and you find it difficult to follow. Not to worry, th ough. You can always ask your partner to repeat what he has said or to speak more slowly. For example, “Excuse me, but could you say that again? I did n’t catch it.” Or “Could you speak more slowly, please?”At the end of a conversation you need to find a way to close it in a polite w ay. “Well, I really need to be going,” or “It was nice talking to you” are freq uently used by people to end a conversation.Part CSmile When You Read ThisHow good is your memory? Answer these four questions: What did you have for breakfast yesterday? What clothes did you wear last Friday? Who did you talk to yesterday? Where did you go last Saturday? If you can answer all four questions, you memory is very good.Memory is important for leaning language skills. Education specialists in Engla nd want to help people improve their reading abilities. They want students to r emember the books and articles they read. The specialists found something to help: facial expressions. They gave ten students a happy article to read. Five o f the students read the happy article while smiling. Five students read the happ y article while frowning. Then they answered comprehension questions the smil ing students remembered more of the happy article than the frowning students.Then the specialists gave ten students another article to read. It was an angry letter to the editor of a newspaper. Five students read the angry article while s miling, and five students read the angry article whiling frowning. Which group remembered better? You’r e right. The frowning students.The specialist don’t know why facial expressions help memory. They are conti nuing to study the relationship between the mind and the body. Until they find the answer, keep smiling (or frowning?)!Unit 3Part ACommunicative FunctionMaggie likes swimming but she does not care for skiing.

A busy life2.Between 6 and 15 hours3.Reading. remain current4.revise and updateWhat College Professors DoCollege professors are often believed to lead easy lives of quiet thinking while teaching one or two classes every week. But college professors do much mor e than go to class. The average professor spends between six and fifteen hours in the classroom weekly. And that same college professor works from sixty t o eighty hours a week.Because they must remain current in their fields, professors spend part of that time reading, reading, reading. That leads to additional hours during which the y revise and update their class lecture notes. It takes far longer to prepare not es than to deliver them in class. Professors may spend time conducting experi ments, working on college projects, or advising students. They may be writing books, articles, or papers for delivery at conventions.When not in the classroom or in the office, professors are still working, behin d closed doors in committee sessions or at home grading papers and preparing for tomorrow’s classes. To accept this sort of schedule willingly, they must fe el strongly about the importance of the college experience.Unit 4Part ACommunicative Function1.Yeah/ By the way/ Who?/ Don't you think so?/ Yes./ Quite well.2.Like what?/ Yeah/ Hmmm, let me think./ Well./ Come to think of it.

Have a good time a t the party.Note:Small talk means light conversations on unimportant or non-serious subjects such as the weather or TV programs you saw last night, or little compliments on what people are wearing.

The store had a good reputation, and Mrs. White had often shopped ther e before. But when she got home and examined the sheets, Mrs. White was s hocked. One of them had a big hole in the middle, and another was badly sta ined. And two others were frayed at the edges.As you can imagine, Mrs. White was very angry and she went back immediat ely to complain. When she arrived, the store was closed and the two other an gry ladies were waiting outside. One of them told Mrs. White that she had bo ught some towels that morning, and the other lady said that she had purchased a linen tablecloth. In both cases the goods were defective. A little later some other women joined them, and they all told the same story.Finally the storekeeper appeared and let them in. The poor man looked very w orried. He became very nervous when the ladies threatened to call the police, but he denied trying to cheat them. Then he explained what had happened. In his absence, the driver of a delivery truck had mistaken his shop for a second hand goods store and had delivered a load of used material from a nearby hot el. The sales clerk had not bothered to check the delivery and had started selli ng the defective goods right away.The storekeeper apologized for the mistake and promised to exchange the ladie s’ purchases and to refund half the price. Needless to say he fired the careless assistant.Unit 7Part ACommunicative Function1.O,2.O3.F4.F5.O6.F7.O8.O9.F 10.O 11.O 12.FListening Strategy(omitted)Part BTextExercise 1: 1.a 2.dExercise 2:Steve Wellsa university juniorB averagea lifeguard for two summersin an apartmenthard working and reliableseldom absent from work and always on timepay the rent of the apartmenta clerk in the mailroom2 to 6 am Monday through FridayMinimumWe Have an Opening NowMs. Campbell: Have a seat, Mr. Wells.

The poor boy spoiled everything he did and for that reason could never keep a job. He’d had many jobs over the years but only for a few weeks at a time. For six months, Fred was out of employment. Finally, he got a job in a warehou se where many different types of home furnishings were stored. Fred’s job was to unpack the merchandise newly arrived from the factory and put each item in its assigned place. The work was only temporary, but after so long with no employment at all it was better than nothing.One morning Fred unpacked a large and quite fragile vase. He picked it up to carry across the warehouse. But he had only walked two steps and he tripped. There was a loud crash as the vase fell from Fred’s hands a nd shattered into a thousand pieces.Fred was called immediately to the manager’s office, and he was sure he woul d be fired. The you ng man’s spirits began to drop.“I’ll have to deduct something from your wages every week until the vase is paid for,” the m anager said sternly.“How much is the vase worth?” Fred asked.“$350”A wide grin spread across the young man’s face. “That’s wonderful!” he sho uted happily. “At last I have a steady job!”Part CExercise: 1.d 2.c 3.d 4.b 5.bMark HillMark Hill is a traffic police officer in Watford, near London.

On average they have to deal with three to fou r accidents each shift. Here is Mark Hill talking about his job:“We deal with anyone in the accident who is injured. That’s the first thing. Then we have to clear the road and get the traffic moving again.”“Most accidents happen because people drive too fast—especially when the ro ads are wet. Sometimes we get accidents that occur because drivers don’t follo w the rules. For example, I’ve seen a number of cases of drivers overtaking o n the left. This is illegal in Britain. If you want to overtake, you have to go i nto the fast lane on the right.”“Not everyone can use a motorway in Britain. People that ride a bicycle or a small motorbike are not allowed to use it.“I like my job. I have a varied working day—I never know what I’m going to do from one day to the next.

Unit 1 Key to ExercisesOpener1. Mr. Qian Xuesen was a distinguished and world-renowned rocket scientist. Steve Jobs was a famous American entrepreneur, the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc.2. Both of them were dream pursuers and hard workers who finally succeeded in fulfilling their dreams in their own specialized domains. Qian Xuesen became universally acknowledged as the father of China’s space programs, and Steve Jobs ca me to fame as a creative entrepreneur who revolutionized many products, including personal computers and smartphones.3. In the early 1950s, Qian, a scientist working in the United States, suffered serious persecution by the US government just because he sympathized with China. However, he remained firm and overcame lots of difficulties and returned to his motherland in the end. Following that, he devoted himself whole-heartedly to the development of China’s nuclear weapons program. As to Jobs, he also had to overcome a lot of obstacles on his way to success. Once he was forced out of Apple, the company he had co-founded. But years later he came back and became its CEO, and led the world in tablet computing and smartphones.Reading & InteractingI.

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.
