Unit 1 College life1. Write an essay in about 100–120 words based on your discussion in Optional Classroom Activities. You can take either of the following titles:1) I like to study on my own2) I like to study in a group2. If you didn’t do Task 3 in Optional Classroom Activities you can write an essay of around 120 words on the following topic.College Is Not an Ivory Tower▆ Sample Essays for Task 1:I like to study on my ownMany of my classmates like to study together. However, I always like to study on my own, with good reasons. First, I feel that I can concentrate better when I study alone. When I have to work together with other people, I often get distracted and more often than not, I end up chatting with them without completing the task at hand. Second, when I study on my own, I can work at my own pace, choosing to spend more time on certain difficult sections and less time on less challenging parts. I can also check my class notes or reference books whenever I feel the need to. One final good advantage of studying alone is that unlike group work, self study is not restricted by time and space. In other words, if I feel like studying, I can do so at any time and anywhere. (146 words)I like to study in a groupAccording to a recent study, students who study together by discussing homework and problems usually score higher than those who work on their own. I am happy to hear that because I like to study in a group. I think we can reinforce our understanding of what we have learned in class by asking each other questions. Besides, it is always enjoyable working with someone else. A discussion on questions we don’t understan d very well will help clear up any possible confusion. Last but not least, we should not ignore the importance of cooperation in our society. Working with others helps develop our team spirit, which has become essential in this modern world of ours. After all, two heads are always better than one. (125 words)▆ Sample Essay for Task 2:College Is Not an Ivory TowerPeople often say that college is an ivory tower and life on campus is cut off from the harsh realities of the real world. College may have been an ivory tower before, but it is not so any more. We college students are under various kinds of pressure. First of all, most of us are burdened with a heavy tuition fee, which keeps on increasing every year. So some of us have to work over ten hours every week. Life for those who can get financial help from their parents is not easy either, as they very often have to follow their parents’ advice and take a major they don’t like. Finally those who are about to graduate suffer from a different kind of pressure: hunting for a job. It is no longer easy for a college student to get a decently paid job these days. (134 words)Unit 2 Learning a language▆Write a passage in about 100-120 words, taking either of the following titles:1) Why I like to learn English2) Why I hate to learn English▆Sample essay for Task 1:Why I like to learn EnglishI have learned English for about seven years. I should say that I am highly motivated to master English. First of all, learning English is useful, as it is becoming a world language and people from different countries often communicate with one another in English. If I am good at English, it will be much easier for me to communicate with them. Secondly, I like traveling a lot. A good mastery of English will make things much easier for me when traveling around the world. Finally, I like literature a lot. If I am very good at English, I can read great works by Shakespeare and Dickens and many other English writers instead of reading the translated versions.▆Sample essay for Task 2:Why I hate to learn EnglishI have learned English for about seven years. I should say the more I learn English, the more I hate it. First of all, learning English is boring. I have to memorize many new words or rely on a dictionary to frequently check unknown words. Doing so wastes a lot of my precious time. Secondly, I don’t understand why we have to learn a foreign language. I don’twant to go abroad and I can always find a job that doesn’t need English in China. Finally, I can always read translated versions of the books I want to read. So, i f I don’t have to learn English, I would rather use the time I spend on English to do things I like.Unit 3 Parents and Children1.In about 100-120 words, write about an incident of misunderstanding between you and your mother/father. Tell usabout how it all started and what happened in the end.2.In about 100-120 words, describe the similarities and differences in the way your father and mother show their lovefor you . Be sure to give examples.▆Sample essay for Task 1A misunderstanding between my mother and IOne afternoon, I was wandering along the main street of our small town with a friend. Suddenly I saw my mother. She was behaving very strangely. She looked around her before going quickly into a shop. When she came out, she had a box in her hand. I was terrified. I knew some of my villagers resorted to theft because they were poor. The thought that my mother could be one of them drove me crazy. I was determined to find out the truth from her. When I questioned her, tears filled her eyes. She told me she was collecting beer cans from some kind shop owners who offered them to her, but would feel embarrassed if she was seen by others. I cried and hugged her and felt sorry that I had misunderstood my own mother.▆Sample essay for Task 2:My parents’ loveMy parents differ greatly in showing their love for me. While my mother appears more anxious and depressed if anything goes wrong with me, my father tends to be silent and expresses his concern for me mainly through actions rather than words. I still remember the day when I left home for university. When my mother was in tears and kept giving me endless advice, my father remained silent. But when he saw an ice-cream man on the platform, he rushed towards him and got me an ice-cream just before the train started to move. I learned from my mother later that my father locked himself up in his room after returning home and cried for the first time in his life. I never expected that my departure would trigger such an emotional response from my father.Unit 4 Growing up1. In about 100-120 words, write about a conflict you once had with your parents .You can start with either of the following openings:1) I was very unhappy with my mother/father the other day…2) I was grateful that my mother/father criticised me the other day…2.Describe your attitude toward your father or mother when you were a teenger. When you could not agree with each other, what did you do? Use an incident from daily life to support the description.▆Sample essay for Task 1:I was very unhappy with my mother /father the other day. . .I was very unhappy with my father the other day. He must have called out to me for help with some housework, but I was so absorbed in reading that I did not hear him. He stepped into my room , apparently in anger, grabbed my book and threw it on the floor. I got upset and insisted he should pick it up and apologize to me. When he remained silent, I ran out and went off to play games with friends in the neighbourhood. When it was turning dark, I saw my father looking for me. He patted me on the head walked back home with me, his arm wrapped around my shoulder. When I got home, I saw my book had "returned" to my reading table.▆Sample essay for Task 2:I was very grateful that my mother /father criticised the other day. . .I was grateful that my mother criticised me the other day. I had been asking her for money to buy all kinds of things that my friends have--a new pair of shoes or some new clothes. Every time I was refused, I played the same trick -- threatening to pour the dish she cooked for the family into the river. My mother gave in each time I threatened to do that, but one day, she criticised me really hard. She scolded me for being selfish and inconsiderate and asked me to sit in acorner and reflect on my own behavior. I could not believe my mother could be so angry with me and I grew afraid. I learned a good lesson and changed a lot afterwards. I was thankful that my mother made me realize my mistakes.▆Sample essay for Task 2:I was so proud of my fatherMy father is a well-known carpenter in my village. I still remember that when I was in my mid-teens, I used to adore him make furniture for the villagers. He not only had good skills, but he was also willing to help the villagers with minor repairs such as mending a broken window frame or fixing a door, without charge. All the villagers respected him. They also paid me compliments when they saw me helping him , saying that I would grow up to become honest and industrious just like my father. I was so proud that I had a father who was so well respected.Unit 5 Knowing YourselfWrite a passage of about 100-120 words according to one of the instructions given below.1) Describe a few of your own personality traits. Then identify your favourite colour and see if the descriptions of the colour in Text B match your personality.2) Think of the person you admire most. Write two personality traits that you like most about this person. Remember to give an example for each personality trait.3) Imagine that you had been given a wish to change your life. Write about two personality traits that you would like to have and give your reasons.4) Write about a person whom you dislike most and give one or two reasons or examples why you dislike him or her so much.▆Sample essay 1)I have been described by many friends as a warm, sociable, and outgoing extravert. I find it easy to make new friends and I enjoy the company of people who share similar characteristics as I. When I am at a party, many people including those I do not know, will talk to me. I am not a great beauty, neither am I rich and intelligent. In fact, I am just a very simple person who is happy and smiles a lot. Maybe being happy is the attraction. I like bright colours, especially red. It is said that people who like red are passionate and have a lot of energy. I agree that I am enthusiastic about many things and like doing many things at the same time. So it seems there is some truth after all in what colours say about a person’s personality.▆Sample essay 2)The person I admire most is my father’s youngest brother. He is known to us as ba shu because he is the eighth son in a family of eleven. He is a high achiever. Since young, he has done well in his studies and work. For example, he received a prestigious scholarship to study at a well-known medical school in England. Today, at the age of 62, he is still as outgoing. He is a well-respected surgeon and has won many awards. What I like most about ba shu is his sensitive nature, especially toward children who are born unlucky. He has volunteered his time and made sacrifices to help those in poor and developing countries. His strong desire to bring happiness to these people has impress me a lot.▆Sample essay 3)If I were given a wish to have two personality traits, I would choose to be an optimistic person because those who are optimistic are usually satisfied and content with what they have. They seldom let sadness be a part of their life. I want to be happy and being optimistic is one way to remain happy. I also would like to be creative. I think that creativity is inherited. Some may disagree and say that we can learn to be creative. However, no matter how hard one learns, it is those born with the talent of creativity who will make a great name for themselves like the famous poet Li Bai and the richest man in the world, Bill Gates.▆Sample essay 4)There is no one person I disagree most but there are a couple of personality traits that I cannot tolerate: aggressiveness and selfishness. Aggressive people do not consider other’s feelings and will not think twice about hurting even those closest to them. I once had a neighbour who would beat his wife one day and appear loving the next. His wife lived in fear constantly but could do nothing because he was in control of her. Another personality trait I dislike is selfishness. Likeaggressive people, selfish people only think of themselves. There are many everyday examples of selfishness such as those not willing to lend things to others and those not wanting to share exam tips even with their best friends. If you know someone with a combination of aggressiveness and selfishness, you should consider whether to call him or her a friend.。

Unit 1 college lifeText A A Stisfying College Experience令人满意的大学体验莉亚.思宁斯基2011年8月31日随着时间的推移,我对“你长大想要干什么?”这个老问题的答案变化很大。
四岁时候,像大多数充满希望的学龄前儿童,我很自信的回答,我想成为美国总统。
上小学时,我的目标稍微实际了一点—我想成为一名宇航员或者科学家。
但是,到了初中,警钟响起:我对自然科学没有天赋。
上高中时,我决定在英语方面找到适合自己的位置,我的职业规划是希望自己做自己最喜欢的一块—读和写。
作为一名主修英语辅修新闻的大四学生,我自豪地说我不得不放弃梦想,我长大想要做什么的梦想毫无疑问排在我毕业后能做什么之后。
每当我告诉人们我上大学所学的东西,我收到的是种种疑问,我听到的是各种“为什么”,领会的多,自然就更自信。
大学的三年时光让我明白所有关于大学的陈词滥调都是正确的。
大学是一生中学习最多的地方。
不仅仅在学习上,而且因为大学塑造了未来的我们。
上大学时候所做的选择极大地影响我们培养的兴趣和我们认可的价值观。
刚毕业我可能不能在出版社找到理想的工作,但是我不后悔,也从来没有后悔过我所选择的专业。
今年夏天,在朋友的毕业晚会上,我听着朋友们讨论以后无聊的工作和压抑的研究生生活。
这些都是我最聪明,最有天赋和最勤奋的朋友。
他们的简历令人印象深刻,写满了各个季度的实习,各个社团的职位以及极高的GPA。
他们中很多人都是英文专业。
但是我仍然怀有希望。
在大学,我亲身体验了我所珍视的东西。
体验了记者的生活,完成了采访,体验了截止日期内交稿,体验了看到所写的东西出版的满足感。
在文学课上,我拜读了作家的经典作品,他们的价值观有的我认同,有的我反对,但是他们都使我变得更加智慧,更加有修养,更加开明。
或许需要一段时间,我才能找到像我大学经历那样满意的职业,但是我相信我能找到。
我永远感激自己上大学学的是文科,我知道它将继续丰富我的生活。

W. Emerson (1803–1882): R. W. Emerson,a US poet and writer who had great influence on the religious and philosophical thought of his time.W. B. Yeats⊙Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.— W. B.

I would like to tell you that if you select something that you love and that you’re passionate about, everything’s going to be fine and you’re going to get a great job with your degree, but of course this is not completely true. However, when you’re going to college, your primary reason for going to college is to educate yourself, which means to make yourself a better person both intellectually, spiritually, mentally, all of these things.2.Discuss the topic with your group members:What are the recommended concerns in selecting a college major according to the video clip?And how did you choose your current major?▇Answers for reference:According to the video clip, the main concerns should be: first, to choose something you really enjoy; second, to choose something your school is well known for.Script:Hi, this is Laura Turner, and today I’m going to talk to you about how to select your college major. I would like to tell you that if you select something that you love and thatyou’re passionate about, everything’s going to be fine and you’re going to g et a great job with your degree, but of course this is not completely true. However, when you’re going to college, your primary reason for going to college is to educate yourself, which means tomake yourself a better person both intellectually, spiritually, mentally, all of these things. So, whenever you choose your major, I would say yes, do choose something that you enjoy,because really if you are just in it to get a degree that will get you a high-paying job andyou’re not really passionate about this and you want to be an Engineering Major justbecause you know that’s going to make you into a high earning person, that may be thewrong reason to study it because you’re going to get overwhelmed over time because adegree takes, it’s four years out of your life that you’re going to be studying this thing. There has to be something beyond money, and beyond the job that’s going to keep you interested.So I would suggest picking something that you love as well as, hopefully, it will besomething that will get you a job. Also, my other point is, pick something that your school is well known for, something in your school, the major in your school that actually has really great professors to teach you. If you have a great English Department, if you have a greatH istory Department, and you’re passionate about those things, study with professors whoare great and they can help turn a little bit of interest in a subject matter into a lifelong love of it. So good luck with choosing your major wisely.Part II Listen and RespondSection A Word BankSection B Task One: Focusing on the Main Ideas1.

In general, it is a time filled with anticipation, some anxiety, and wonderful discoveries.College is a lot different from high school. Your freshman experience will definitely make an impression on you. So, what can you expect as you head off into the wonderful world of higher education?The first thing you’ll notice is the workload. It will be heavier than you ever experienced before. The major challenges of college work are the large amount of reading and writing, and the short deadlines. A related effect that can be brought on by the workload is doubt, frustration, and possibly loneliness. You’ll be away from the comforts and friendships your home provided for you over the previous years.During the freshman year, you’ll be making a lot of new friends. But you should continue to be yourself. Select your friends with the same care and patience you have always shown. Believe it or not, your college friendships will be among the most satisfying and long-term of your life. It’s always exciting to discover how wonderfully diverse college relationships can be.You’ll also be on your own —you’ll be your own boss 24 hours a day, so to speak. But, remember, with freedom comes responsibility. You should always remember that you are at college with an anticipated mission. Don’t waste your time on meaningless things.During the freshman year, you may even start thinking about your future. Maybe a certain professor is especially inspiring. Perhaps your school has some great research going on. If some area of study attracts you, find out all you can about it. It might be the beginning of your lifetime career. Going to college is not just to get a degree — it is to find out who you really are and what you are really made for.Part III Read and ExploreText ASection A Discovering the Main IdeasExercise 1.

Straight-A students, in this respect, can be of great help by sharing their secrets in achieving academic excellence. Read the following text to find out what some of these secrets are.Secrets of Straight-A Students1 A professor of education who has conducted major studies of super-achieving students revealed that top grades do not always go to the brightest students. According to him, other education experts and top students themselves, it is far more important for a student to know how to make the most of his or her innate abilities.2 The students at the top of the class attain academic excellence by mastering a fewbasic principles that others can easily learn.To begin with, top students know how to set their priorities right. Study time is never compromised for phone calls, television programmes or snacks.In other words, it is always placed above recreation. In addition, top students make a point of studying anywhere or everywhere. A top student who is also a top athlete memorises biology terms as he works out every day. Another student learns a new word every morning while brushing his teeth. Among all the students interviewed, every one agreed that study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some thrive at night when all is silent. Others prefer to study as soon as they come home from school when the lessons are fresh in their minds. However, all agreed that consistency is a main factor if one is to perform well at all times.3 A student must also learn to be organised. For example, a top student who is actively involved in his school band, track and field, rugby association and debate team disclosed that he keeps his things in their proper places because he simply cannot afford time-wasting searches. Another student immediately files the day’s notes in colour-coded folders so that they are available for review nearing examination time. Another technique advocated by top students is to read effectively. This includes speed-reading, improving one’s memory or retention ability, and actively asking questions that will lead to a full understanding of the author’s message.4 It is also important for students to know how to schedule their time. They must know how to pace each assignment or project according to their daily timetable and work ability so that they might not be overwhelmed by the tasks at hand. Being able to set timetables not only allows students more time to review and polish their work, it also prevents them from procrastinating. Top students believe that a secret of their success is the taking down of good notes during lessons and using them for revision. One student revealed that she writes notes from the text on one side of her notebook and those from her teachers’ lectures on the other side. This allows her to review both aspects of each lesson at once. The student also revealed that instead of wasting time whispering to friends and getting ready to rush out of the class just before the bell rings, she uses those few minutes to jot down a two or three-sentence summary of the lesson’s principal points. She then scans the notes to refresh her memory before the next day’s class.5 Another winning formula which teachers promote lies in a student’s ability to hand in neat work. According to one professor, the student who turns in neat work is already on the way to scoring an A.In the classroom context, it is equally important for students to speak up and ask questions. This is perhaps the best way for a student to clarify any doubts. Classroom participation also demonstrates a student’s intellectual curiosity. As a student concisely puts it, “Better grades come from better understanding.”6 The value of studying together was demonstrated in an experiment conducted at one top university. The study revealed that students who discussed homework and problems together, tried different approaches and explained their solutions to one another scored higher than those who laboured on their own. The experiment also illuminated the value of hypothetical tests conducted among the students and on their own. This means that students frame tentative test questions based on their notes and give each other or themselves written examinations the day before a test. Experts confirmed that students who devise possible test questions often find many of the same questions during the real examination and thus score higher.7 Another technique employed by top students is to do more than the assigned homework.A student revealed that if her teacher gives five problems, she will undertake ten. In the student’s words, “Part of learning is practising. The more you practise, the more you learn.” Last but not least, all experts and top students agree that the most important “secret” of super-achievers lies in the crucial contribution by parents. From infancy, super-achievers were taught the importance of learning by their parents. The latter set high standards for their children and held them to those standards. They encouraged their children in their studies but did not undertake the work for them. Instead of pressuring their children, these parents were always loving, gentle and took pains to explain and motivate. They impressed the lessons of responsibility on their children, andthe children delivered.(此课文没有更新,不需要配图说明。

(Para. 16)May I point out that if we don’t leave now we shall miss the bus?Checking Your Comprehension1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text B.1) What does the writer mean by “brutal economy”?Para. 2 in the text provides the answer. Studying at college means a huge sum of money to pay for tuition, room and board, books andmany other expenses. A student may have a loan of up to $5,000 when he graduates, and this same student has to work both part-time and full-time whenever possible at college.2) Why are humanities courses not popular with parents?Parents want to make sure that their children have a secure future and they don’t think that humanities subjects with no “practical” value will pay off.3) What are the possible reactions of a student who suffers from peer pressure?Examples of possible reactions include:a. always thinking other students are brighter and study harder;b. studying at the library as late as possible;c. doing homework till early morning;d. getting into a panic when exams are approaching and papers are due;e. getting sick and stuck;f. oversleeping due to tiredness; andg. doing more than expected.4) Who can help to free students from the pressures they suffer from? Professors, parents, and friends can help to free students from the pressures they suffer from, but it is the students themselves who should relieve themselves of the pressures.5) Explain in your own words why, according to the text, economic pressure is closely connected with parental pressure, and peer pressure with self-induced pressure.a. Students normally find it hard to cope with different kinds of fees at college without parental help. However, when students do get financial help from their parents, they will feel obligated to follow their parents’ advice, sometimes against their own will, because after all, their parents are paying all their expenses at college.b. When a student thinks that his / her peers are brighter and study harder, he / she will push himself / herself more, which will in turn induce more pressure on himself / herself.2 Read the following statements and then decide whether each of them is true or false based on the information in the text. Write T for True and F for False in the space provided before each statement. 1)T Without parental help, a student may be expected to have a large loan to pay back after graduation.2) F Many students dream of becoming dentists.(Many students don’t want to take pre-medical courses. So they go off to their labs as if they were going to see a dentist.)3)T Knowledge in the humanities can help create leaders in all general fields.4)T Lawyers, doctors and businessmen usually earn more than most of other people.5) F Students who finish an assignment up to requirements will be given the same credits as those who have done more.(When most students are doing more than they are expected to, those who are doing normal work can be perceived as not doing well.)3 Listed in the left column are the four pressures faced by college students and in the right column are causes or consequences linked to the pressures. Relate the causes or consequences to the types of pressure by following the example given. Some causes or consequences can be related to more than one type of pressure.Types of Pressure Causes or ConsequencesA. economic pressure ( a, d )B. parental pressure a. loans to payb. taking some courses unwillinglyc. taking courses with “practical value”( b, c )C. peer pressure( e, f, g )D. self-induced pressure ( e, f, g )d. heavy tuition fees, expenses on rooms and bookse. thinking some fellow students are working harderf. staying in the library till very lateg. doing more work than required4 Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicized parts.1) But there are no villains; only victims. (Para. 1)Nobody is to blame for the pressures college students are suffering; all involved are victims.2) They go off to their labs as if they were going to the dentist. (Para. 4) Many students who are taking pre-medical courses don’t like this major at all.3) They are caught in one of the oldest webs of love and duty and guilt.

(Para. 15) The students who just fulfill what they are asked to do are put at a disadvantaged position.6) The tactic works, psychologically. (Para. 16)Teachers are likely to give a higher credit to students who do more than expected.↑返回顶部Optional Classroom Activities1 Sit in groups of threes or fours and discuss each of the following questions.1) Do college students in China suffer from the same pressures mentioned in Text B? Are there any differences?Most students perhaps will say “yes” to this question as the four kinds of pressure mentioned in the text are also felt by Chinese university students.

Who chose this major, you or your parents? Are you happy with your major so far? Give reasons.Answers will vary depending on who the student is and what family background he or she comes from.3) Are you working part time while being a full-time student? If so, why are you working part time? If not, do you think it’s good to work part time while being a full-time student?Some students in China are working part time while being full-time students.

Write an essay in about 100–120 words based on your discussion in Optional Classroom Activities. You can take either of the following titles:1) I like to study on my own2) I like to study in a group2. If you didn’t do Task 3 in Optional Classroom Activities you can write an essay of around 120 words on the following topic.College Is Not an Ivory Tower▆Sample Essays for Task 1:I like to study on my ownMany of my classmates like to study together. However, I always like to study on my own, with good reasons. First, I feel that I can concentrate better when I study alone. When I have to work together with other people, I often get distracted and more often than not, I end up chatting with them without completing the task at hand. Second, when I study on my own, I can work at my own pace, choosing to spend more time on certain difficult sections and less time on less challenging parts. I can also check my class notes or reference books whenever I feel the need to. One final good advantage of studying alone is that unlike group work, self study is not restricted by time and space. In other words, if I feel like studying, I can do so at any time and anywhere. (146 words)I like to study in a groupAccording to a recent study, students who study together by discussing homework and problems usually score higher than those who work on their own. I am happy to hear that because I like to study in a group. I think we can reinforce our understanding of what we have learned in class by asking each other questions. Besides, it is always enjoyable working with someone else. A discussion on questions we don’t understand very well will help clear up any possible confusion. Last but not least, we should not ignore the importance of cooperation in our society. Working with others helps develop our team spirit, which has become essential in this modern world of ours. After all, two heads are always better than one.(125 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:College Is Not an Ivory TowerPeople often say that college is an ivory tower and life on campus is cut off from the harsh realities of the real world. College may have been an ivory tower before, but it is not so any more. We college students are under various kinds of pressure. First of all, most of us are burdened with a heavy tuition fee, which keeps on increasing every year. So some of us have to work over ten hours every week. Life for those who can get financial help from their parents is not easy either, as they very often have to follow their parents’ advice and take a major they don’t like. Finally those who are about to graduate suffer from a different kind of pressure: hunting for a job. It is no longer easy for a college student to get a decently paid job these days.(134 words)。

大学体验英语综合教程1第二版课后答案全Unit1 college life学无止终考的最后一天,东部一所的大学里,一群大四的工科生聚集在一幢教学楼的台阶上,谈论着即刻就要开始的考试。
他们脸上都充满自信。
在参加即将到来的毕业典礼和从事未来的工作前,这是他们最后一门考试。
他们有的谈起了已经找到的工作,有的则谈论着要找的工作。
4年的大学学习给了他们全部的自信,使他们觉得自己足以征服世界。
眼前这场考试,不过是小事一桩。
这门课的教授已经说过,除考场上不能交头接耳外,允许他们带任何书或笔记到考场。
考生们依次进入考场,心情轻松而愉快。
当教授把考卷发给在座的考生后,学生们脸上的笑容更加灿烂,因为考卷上只有五道论述题。
她扫视着一张张焦虑的脸问道:“5道题答完的有多少?”没人举手。
“答完4道的有多少?”还是没有人举手。
“完成3道题的?2道题的?”考生们有些坐不住了,不安地动了动。
“那么,有没有写完一道题的?我想总有人做完一道题吧!”考场里还是一片寂静。
教授放下手中的考卷,说:“果真不出我所料。
”“我只是想让你们牢牢记住,即使你们已经学完了4年工科课程,在这个领域里,你们还有很多东西不懂。
在你们今后的日常工作中,类似于今天考卷上你们无法回答的问题很常见。
”接着,她微笑着补充说:“你们都会通过考试,但是请记住,即使你们现在已经毕业了,你们的学习才刚刚开始。
”多年后,这位老师的姓名已经被淡忘,但她的教诲却深深地刻在记忆中。
五、长难句解析1. On the steps of one building, a group of engineering seniors huddled, discussing the exam due to begin in a few minutes. (Para. 1)→解析:engineering seniors指工科专业的第四年级的学生。
discussing 是非谓语结构,引导伴随状语。
2. On their faces was confidence. (Para. 1)→解析:On their face. 英语句子中重点强调的内容多位于句尾,本句强调confidence(自信)所以用倒装形式则非常恰当。
