Unit 1
II. 他们告诉我们，我们很弱小，无法对抗如此强大的敌人。但是我们什么时候才能强大一些呢？是下个星期吗？是明年吗？是我们完全被解除武装之时吗？犹豫不决，无所作为就能使我们积聚力量吗？难道只有仰面而卧，心存幻想，直至让敌人困住我们的手脚，我们才能找到有效的抵御办法吗？先生们，假如我们适当地运用造物主赋予我们的力量，我们就不弱小。我们拥有300万为争取神圣自由而武装起来的人民，我们拥有这样的国家，这是敌人可能派遣来的任何军队都无法战胜的。战争的胜利不仅仅属于强者，胜利还属于警觉的人，主动的人，无畏的人。先生们，我们已别无选择。即使我们卑躬屈膝，指望从战争中脱身，也为时已晚。除了屈服，沦为奴隶，我们没有退路！战争已迫在眉睫——让它到来吧！先生们，请允许我重复一遍：让它到来吧！
Unit 2
II. 在某些文化中，空间感觉的一个重要方面体香在人民所需要的让彼此感觉舒适却又不觉得拥挤的“私人空间”。例如，北美人彼此感觉舒适所需的空间距离大约是4英尺。而阿拉伯人和拉美人反而是当彼此靠近时才感觉舒适。因此，不同文化的人可能会无意间侵犯别人的空间感。正如不同的时间观可能会造成文化冲突，不同的空间观也可能引发同样的问题。
Unit 3
II.互联网已经把我们带入到一个真正的信息时代，而且正在帮助
世界各地的人们在一个以前不可想象的范围内相互交流。无论互联网和信息高速公路走的是一条什么样的发展道路，电讯、电视和计算机行业一致采用数码化的做法永远改变了我们的交际和计算方式。
这种一致将使公司能提供以前因技术有限而不能提供的服务。网络电视将使观众能接触互联网。大屏幕、高保真数字电视和DVD 有可能改变电影的拍摄方法。卫星将帮助汽车找到回家的路。家家户户将接收到卫星、微波发射塔、前卫或铜线传送的信号。
Unit 4
II. 世贸中心倒塌前102分钟里的声音记录面世了。起初是呼救、问讯和求救，很快就变成了绝望、愤怒和爱的声音。如今，被困在世贸中心楼层上的男男女女发出的这些声音成了永久的记忆。
由《纽约时报》记者收集的这些最后的遗言让人们以一种看不见的形式再次感受这场灾难：北楼最上面的19层和南楼最上面的33层遭受的损失最为惨重，在据说已经死亡的2823人中，至少有1946人，或者说69%的人，是在这些楼层上。
救援人员没能靠近他们。摄影师没能拍下他们的脸。然而，正如在遥远的天边陷入险境的人民在黑匣子里留下的信息一样，他们的遗言不仅让人们感受令人不寒而栗的灾难场景，还让人们了解到在这样一个残酷的时刻，仍然存在着勇敢、体面和风度。

II. 如同在其他许多欧洲国家一样，在法国，朋友通常是相同性别的，友谊则基本上是男人之间的一种关系。法国妇女嘲笑“女人不能成为朋友”这种观念，但她们有时也承认，对女人来说，朋友是“另一回事”。许多法国人不相信男人和女人间可以发展友谊。在团体中，还存在一种关系——男女共事较长时间，他们可能很密切，彼此忠诚，感觉亲切。他们会称呼对方“copains”——在英文中此词意思是朋友，但意思更丰富，含有“铁杆”或“哥们”之意。在法国人眼中这不是友谊，虽然这种团体中的两个成员很可能成为朋友。Unit 6
II.美国人热情友好，不像很多外国人认为的那样肤浅。人们认为
他们是易动感情的。在一些仪式上看到国旗，或是参加纪念美
国光荣历史的游行时，他们很可能会热泪盈眶。与家人和朋友
的团聚也是令人感动的。他们喜欢穿着得体，即便“得体”意
味着奢华炫耀。他们喜欢吹牛，虽然只不过是说说而已。他们
会嘲笑自己和他们的国家，会非常自责，然而他们始终非常爱
国。他们对于日常琐事知之甚广，对于自己所在的州或城市深
为关切。然而，有时外国人也抱怨说，他们对外面的世界漠不
关心，知之甚少。
Unit 7
I. 1. The tape recorder secretly installed in the office of the
Secretary of Treasury brought the government down in less than 3 months.

He had to choose the former.
7. Richard is quite at home here, therefore he could stay a
few more days even without the invitation of the host.
8. She was badly taken in by his honest-looking
appearance.
II.在总统竞选开始之前，各政党需选出其总统候选人。党内竞选有时会出现候选人势均力敌的局面，许多有望成为该政党候选人的人聘请最优秀的公共关系和广告专家，有他们撰写别出心裁的宣传口号，将其候选人加以“推销”。候选人乘火车、飞机、汽车到各地作短暂停留。他们发表无数演说，与数不清的人握手。这种哗众取宠之举是美国人热情与奢侈的典型表现。
Unit 8
III.2001年7月7日，在耶路撒冷举行的一场音乐会在以色列引起了轩然大波。在以色列艺术节上，世界著名指挥家丹尼尔〃巴伦波姆郑智慧德国管弦乐队演奏反犹太作曲家，希特勒最欣赏的音乐家瓦格纳的音乐。建国以来的五十多年中，以色列一直都有一条不成文的规定——禁止公开演出瓦格纳的作品。因为对许多以色列犹太人和大屠杀幸存者来说，瓦格纳的音乐总是不可避免地与希特勒政权联系在一起。尽管瓦格纳的作品世界闻名，久演不衰，但在以色列只要一提到瓦跟就会激起民众的愤慨和谴责。
但巴伦波姆坚持认为，瓦跟的反犹太主义思想既不能忽略，也不能简单地等同于他的音乐。他的音乐引起艺术价值而值得欣赏，一个民主的社会不应当禁止人们欣赏这样的作品。
Unit 9

pretending to sleep, but now and then he steals a furtive glance at the passers-by.
7. The social and economic changes that have taken place
in this country are so sweeping that is has dwarfed all its neighbors.
8. In the dim light of the daybreak, I say a dark shape
looming athwart the door.
II.父亲那些浆得发硬的衬衫是个问题。他穿衬衫时，把它
套住头往下拉，两只手左右乱伸，寻找袖子。新衬衫非
常结实，经得起这样拉扯，不会撕裂，但经父亲穿过后，
很快就不牢了。首先他知道，他会听到它开始撕裂的声
音，这使他感到讨厌。她憎恨任何脆弱的表现，不管是
人还是物。他在愤怒时摸索袖子会比以前更加用力，接
着会传来衬衫撕裂的刺耳的噼啦声和母亲的大声的抱怨。Unit 10
III.8岁到11岁时，我就读于英格兰巴思的一所教会小学。
学校不大，由四个班组成，每个班大约25个孩子，按年
龄分班。一般都是由一个老师负责教一个班的全部课程。
但是校长罗纳德〃布罗克斯先生偶尔也会到班上来，待
上个把小时的时间，讲授他特别喜欢的课程。他对我很
感兴趣，并且很快就知道我喜欢破解难题。他经常在我
去教室的路上拦住我，从口袋里掏出一张纸条给我，上
面通常写着数学或逻辑方面的难题。慢慢地，题目越来
越难，可我非常喜欢。这些纸条点燃了我对数学和解题
的热爱，这种热爱一直保持到今天。当我找出答案时，
我会觉得那种智力活动很有价值，但或许更重要的是，
那是一种巨大的快乐。
Unit 11
I. 1. John stood his ground, though his friends said that he
was wrong.
2. The wounded elephant charged at the tree with terrific

3. He shrugged off our questions for being unwilling to tell
us what had happened.

6. He saluted, spun round and rushed out.
7. In a fit of rage, he took out a gun and shot his oppponent.
8. He would jump at any chance of getting a promotion.
II.机遇不常来，只是偶尔有之。它们常常是悄无声息地来，又默默而去。因此你最好珍惜它，谨慎地对待它。
当机遇来临时，它给人带来希望，但它自身从来不会使
希望实现。如果你想取得成就，或者实现自己的雄心壮
志，你就得勤奋工作，付出努力，做好准备。否则，机
遇来临时，你就不能利用。
成功者与失败者的区别仅仅在于他们对待机遇的方式上。
成功者往往做好充足的准备去迎接机遇的适时来临。而
失败者却工作懒散，只是坐以待毙，看着机遇从身边走
过。
在我看来，在我们这个社会中，人人都有很多的机遇，
但是只有那些做好充足准备，并且高度称职的人，才能
利用机遇去实现目标。正如巴斯特所说，机遇只青睐那些有所准备的人。

Lesson One: The Time Message Elwood N, Chapman 新的学习任务开始之际，千头万绪，最重要的是安排好时间，做时间的主人。本文作者提出了7点具体建议，或许对你有所启迪。 1 Time is tricky. It is difficult to control and easy to waste. When you look a head, you think you have more time than you need. For Example,at the beginning of a semester, you may feel that you have plenty of time on your hands, but toward the end of the term you may suddenly find that time is running out. You don't have enough time to cover all your duties (duty), so you get worried. What is the answer? Control! 译：时间真是不好对付，既难以控制好，又很容易浪费掉，当你向前看时，你觉得你的时间用不完。例如，在一个学期的开始，你或许觉得你有许多时间，但到学期快要结束时，你会突然发现时间快用光了，你甚至找不出时间把所有你必须干的事情干完，这样你就紧张了。答案是什么呢？控制。 2 Time is dangerous. If you don't control it, it will control you. I f you don't make it work fo r you, it will work against you. So you must become the master of time, not its servant. As a first-year college student, time management will be your number one Problem. 译：时间是危险的，如果你控制不了时间，时间就会控制你，如果你不能让时间为你服务，它就会起反作用。所以，你必须成为时间的主人，而不是它的奴仆，作为刚入学的大学生，妥善安排时间是你的头等大事。 3 Time is valuable. Wasting time is a bad habit. It is like a drug. The more time you waste,the easier it is to go on wasting time. If seriously wish to get the most out of college, you must put the time message into practice. 译：时间是珍贵的，浪费时间是个坏习惯，这就像毒品一样，你越浪费时间，就越容易继续浪费下去，如果你真的想充分利用上大学的机会，你就应该把利用时间的要旨付诸实践。 Message1. Control time from the beginning. 4 Time is today, not tomorrow or next week. Start your plan at the Beginning of the term. 译：抓紧时间就是抓紧当前的时间，不要把事情推到明天或是下周，在学期开始就开始计划。 Message2. Get the notebook habit. 5 Go and buy a notebook today, Use it to plan your study time each day. Once a weekly study plan is prepared, follow the same pattern every week with small changes. Sunday is a good day to make the Plan for the following week.

Unit1: 1)我们像在暖房里种花那样养孩子是错误的。我们必须让他们接触各种社会问题，因为不久他们就将作为公民来应对这些问题。 It is wrong to raise our children the way we grow flowers in the greenhouse. We must expose them to all social problems because very soon they will be dealing with them as responsible citizens. 2)随着时间的推移，我们不可避免地会越来越多地卷入国际事务。而冲突必然会发生，因为国家之间总有不同的观点和利益。 As time goes on we are inevitably going to get more and more involved in international affairs. And conflicts are sure to occur because there always exist different views and interests between nations. 3)我们为我们的成就而骄傲，我们有理由感到骄傲。但是我们永远不能变得狂妄，不然我们就会失去我们的朋友。 We are proud of our accomplishments, and we have reason to be.

They do not have any legal document to certify that they have the necessary expertise. We must find a company that specializes in building theatres. 6)这些智囊团不作决策。他们力图提出一些对决策者十分有用的新主意和深刻的分析。 These think tanks do not make decisions. They are out to generate new ideas and penetrating analyses that will be extremely useful for decision makers. 7)国内生产总值不是一切的。如果人民的生活质量没有真正改善的话，我们国家就并不能说已经现代化了。 The growth of GDP is not everything. Our country cannot be said to have been modernized unless the quality of our people’s lives is really improved. 8)虽然那时候我们在很多方面都很困难，但作为孩子我们仍然很幸福，因为有干净的空气、水；江河湖泊里有很多鱼、螃蟹、黄 鳝；田野里有花，有树，有鸟。 Poor as we were in many ways at that time, we were still quite happy as children, for there was clean air, clean water, a lot of fish, crabs and eels in the rivers, lakes, and ponds, and a lot of flowers, trees and birds in the fields. 9)只要给某一个人或某一群人以绝对权力，那这个人或这一群人就肯定会滥用权力，因为正如阿克顿勋爵所说，“权力使人腐败， 绝对权力绝对使人腐败。” Give absolute power to some individual or any particular group of people, and that person or group are sure to abuse that power because, just as Lord Acton says, “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” 10)在我们国家，传统上都认为，“万般皆下品，惟有读书高”。 Traditionally in our country school education was always said to be more important and useful compared with all other pursuits.
