U校园新视野大学英语1读写教程答案Unit 5 Winning is not everythingSection A5-2 Text A: Cliff Young, an unlikely heroPre-reading activitiesPre-reading activities-11) playing baseball2) swimming3) running on a treadmill4) playing tennis5) cycling1) Yes. Generally speaking, these sports are popular among college students, though they are not as popular as basketball and soccer.Not all of these sports are popular among college students. As far as I know, swimming and tennis are more popular among college students than the other three sports.Pre-reading activities-21) I like jogging and playing tennis. When I jog, I listen to music or English. So I don't feel bored and I can learn something while exercising. I also like playing tennis because it is a very exciting sport and it is fun playing with friends.2) I don't do sports every day, but I try to exercise regularly. On weekdays, I'm too busy with my classes and homework, so I can only do sports occasionally. But on weekends I always manage to spend as much time as I can playing table tennis, going hiking, or doing yoga.I spend about half an hour doing exercise every morning. Usually, I run on the sports field on campus. But if it rains, I do push-ups (俯卧撑) and sit-ups (仰卧起坐) in my dorm. If I have time, I play soccer or basketball in the afternoon with my classmates.3) Yes, I think so. Playing sports offers many obvious benefits. Playing sports is good to our health and good health is important for success at college. It also helps cultivate cooperation and teamwork. Besides, playing sports is very good for the development of our social skills, for sports teach us how to communicate and cooperate with people.Reading comprehensionReading comprehension-11) Because the Sydney-to-Melbourne race is 875 kilometers long and it is a harsh test of endurance for the world's top athletes.2) Cliff Young was a toothless 61-year-old farmer; he waswearing rubber boots, and was much older than the other runners.3) Other athletes neither believed it nor treated Cliff Young with respect.4) Because Cliff Young didn't run properly. He had the strangest running style and appeared to shuffle.5) When people found that Cliff Young ran through the entire night without sleeping and when it seemed to them that he intended to keep running until he reached the finish line or fell ill or was injured.6) When he was running, Cliff Young imagined he was gathering his sheep and trying to outrun a storm.7) Cliff Young gave all the prize money to five other runners. He didn't keep a single cent for himself.8) Cliff Young is a brilliant example showing that ordinary people also have the inherent quality to achieve great results. Reading comprehension-21) I think teamwork, fair play and honesty, and excellence in performance best characterize the spirit of sports. Teamwork: Individuals can be strong on their own, but they can be much stronger in a team. You can't win alone in a team game.Fair play and honesty: Respect the rules of the game. Be honest. Never cheat even though you know you won't get caught. Excellence in performance: Always try your best. Show your efforts and best performance.2) By playing sports, people can cultivate honesty, determination, and mutual respect.Honesty: You will learn that having the sense of fair play and observing moral principles are essential in playing sports. Determination: Be ready to face difficulties or frustrations and never give up. Ultimately, this could be the deciding factor when it comes to winning or losing.Mutual respect: It is compulsory to play by the rules. You will learn to respect your opponents, fellow players, referees, and fans.3) No, winning isn't the most important thing in sports. Winning is good, but there is much more about playing sports than winning. Playing sports brings about many benefits, the most important of which is to cultivate the spirit of sports. The spirit of sports is best reflected in the Olympic Creed, which reads: "The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to haveconquered but to have fought well."4) I think it means that a true champion has great confidence and determination that we should not take lightly. A true champion knows one must push his limits of endurance or strength or skill to achieve victory. A true champion never gives up.5) The story of Cliff Young is extraordinary and inspirational, from which I have learned a great deal. I have learned that we should pursue our dreams regardless of what other people have to say. An ordinary person can become a hero, and wonderful things do happen when we are determined and committed. Most important of all, we should believe in ourselves!5-3 Text A: Language focusWords in use1. annual2. contract3. distinction4. substantial5. furnished6. amateur7. assemble8. react9. apparent10. magnificentWord building: Practice Word building: Practice-11) bore2) fascinate3) amusing4) explosion5) assumption6) evolution7) compensation8) contribute9) elementary10) revolutionaryWord building: Practice-21. assumption2. fascinated3. explosion4. elementary5. compensation6. evolution7. amusing8. bore9. contribute10. revolutionary Banked cloze1) amateur2) endurance3) individual4) independent5) present6) despite7) developed8) contests9) remarkable10) coined Expressions in use1) passed away2) left behind3) give away4) had no intention of5) Up to6) regardless of7) might as well,might just as well8) fall ill9) in attendance10) to this day5-4 Structure analysis & writingStructure analysis: Practice1) By the fifth night, he had overtaken them all.

新视野大学英语1 读写教程答案【完整版】Unit 1 Fresh StartSection A1-2 Text A: Toward a brighter future for allPre-reading activitiesPre-reading activities-11) B2) D3) C4) A5) EPre-reading activities-21) In fact all the pieces of advice mentioned in the interview are very useful. But if I have to choose one as the most useful, I'd choose "keep a balance". When we were in high school, we spent almost all our time studying. There lacked a balance between social life and academic life in high school. It's important to keep a balance between life and work because it will give us a sound mind in a sound body. Now we have muchmore free time, so we can join student organizations or go to different activities.2) Before I left for college my parents did have atalk with me. They told me how important college experience would be in my life. They told me about the opportunities that college education would open up to me. They told me to try to develop more interests and join some student clubs. The most impressive advice they gave me was that I should not only read books about my major; instead, they advised me to read as widely as possible. All these are very valuable pieces of advice.Reading prehensionReading prehension-11) The parents reminded their children to work hard and achieve the best they could.2) The president calls on the students to make the most of the great resources on campus: to explore new subjects, to meet fascinating people, and to pursue new passions.3) By saying "sample them widely", the president means students should try many different courses and try something new to see what it is like.4) If we don't challenge ourselves, we will not bee broadly educated people, and we may not find the passion that will help us shape our future.5) We can learn from the example of Vera Wang that we should challenge ourselves, and by challenging ourselves, we are more likely to find an interest we don't know we have, and this interest may help usbuild a prosperous future.6) We should not worry, and we should learn to face this new part of our life with enthusiasm. College experiences, pleasant or unpleasant, will provide us with valuable lessons and will enrich our life.7) The expression "Now it is your turn" means that now it is time for you to acquire knowledge and to pass it on.8) The president's weling speech is really impressive. He mentions many important things about college life, the resources available on campus, as well as the opportunities we have and the responsibilities that we should take. The speech is very inspiring.Reading prehension-21) A university education will play a very important role in my life, and it will benefit me in a number of ways. In the university I can acquire specialized knowledge about my major, and develop my critical thinking and research skills. I will have the opportunities to meet and share ideas with people of different minds. I can gain a broader view of the world by meeting people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. And I will start my life journey of self-discovery, self-improvement, and self-fulfillment.2) Yes, absolutely. With a university education, a person will have more freedom and therefore more choices. This education experience provides unlimited potential. Moreover, a university education provides the means for one to succeed. Not only will a person obtain knowledge and skills essential for his career development, but he will also develop an independent mind and be able to make right decisions on his own.3) I admire those who dropped out of university andyet had made fame for themselves by achieving big goals. Some people use those successful college dropouts as counterexamples to show their belief that a person can succeed even without a university education. Chances are that most people do not havethe same mind, talent, determination, or opportunities as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg did; therefore, they might not be able to achieve success without having a university education. In fact, a university education will equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills which will help them to succeed.4) Nowadays education is getting more and more expensive, especially college education. And there are people who choose to give up education because of the high cost. But without education, one would not beable to acquire knowledge that an education will offer. In other words, they would be "ignorant". The result would be that "ignorant" people will suffer even more or pay even more for being so. It is true thateducation is expensive, but if you try "ignorance", the cost would be even higher.5) To sample widely and challenge myself, I am going to venture out of my fort zone and do what I have not had the courage to do. For instance, I will make friends with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. I will take a swimming class and learn how to swim. I will attend lectures, join student clubs, and try all kinds of food. Most of all, I will do whatever it takes to make the most of the four years and try to bee a well-rounded graduate.1-3 Text A: Language focusWords in use1. confidence2. explore3. emerged4. assume5. pose6. prehensive7. resources8. yield9. inherited10. transmitWord building: Practice Word building: Practice-11) uncover2) uneasy3) unload4) applicant5) resistant6) accountant7) assist8) simplify9) notify10) qualify11) classifyWord building: Practice-21. classified2. assist3. resistant4. uncovered5. uneasy6. qualify7. unloading8. applicants9. simplified10. accountant11. notified Banked cloze1) classify2) passion3) attain4) pursue5) virtually6) fascinating7) prosperous8) acquire9) available10) sample Expressions in use1) got by2) make the most of3) in advance4) over time5) reap the benefits of6) all at once7) remind8) of9) stand a chance of10) open the door to11) take pleasure in1-4 Structure analysis & writingStructure analysis: Practice1) A2) B3) B4) CStructured writing: Practice参考：There are some things you can do to succeed in college.
