全新版⼤学英语（第⼆版）综合教程5-Unit-6课后答案及课⽂翻译Unit6 Grant and Lee格兰特和李1865年4⽉9⽇，当尤利西兹·S·格兰特和罗伯特·E·李在弗吉尼亚州阿珀马特科斯县城⼀所不太⼤的房⼦的客厅⾥会⾯，商讨李所率的北弗吉尼亚军队投降条件时，美国⼈⽣活中⼀个伟⼤的篇章结束了，⼀个崭新的重要篇章开始了。
此⼆⼈是在实质上终⽌内战。
诚然，其他军队尚未投降，已失去主要⽀柱的逃亡的邦联政府仍将绝望地徒然挣扎数⽇，想法寻觅⽣机。
其实，在格兰特和李签署⽂件之时，⼀切都已结束。
他们拟定投降条件时⽤的那间⼩客厅成了见证美国史上强烈的戏剧性对照的场所。
这两位截然不同的将军都是强有⼒的⼈物，他们代表着两股相互冲突的⼒量的潮流，那两股潮流通过他们最终发⽣碰撞。
罗伯特·E·李所仰仗的信念是，古⽼的贵族观念或许能以某种⽅式继续存在下去，并左右美国⼈的⽣活。
李是弗吉尼亚州沿海低地⼈⽒，他的⽣活背景是家庭、⽂化、传统……，是被移植到这个正在形成⾃⾝的传说与神话的新世界的骑⼠时代。
他体现了从骑⼠和英格兰乡绅时代流传下来的⼀种⽣活⽅式。
美国是个⼀切从头开始的国度，信奉的只不过是⼀种颇为模糊的信念，即⼈⼈拥有平等的权利，在世间应有平等的机会，如此⽽已。
在这样⼀个国度⾥，李代表着这样⼀种情感，即社会结构中保留⼀种明显的不平等多少有利于⼈类社会。
理应存在⼀个拥有⼟地的有闲阶级；反过来，社会本⾝应以⼟地为本，视其为财富与势⼒的主要来源。
（根据这⼀理想）这样⼀个社会会造就⼀个对社会有着强烈责任感的阶级，他们不是为⾃⼰获利活着，⽽是为了承担⾃⼰的特权所赋予的重⼤责任活着。
国家从他们中觅得领导⼈员；国家可依靠他们产⽣更加⾼尚的价值观念——思想⽅⾯的，⾏为⽅⾯的，个⼈风度⽅⾯的—以求国兴德盛。
李体现了这⼀贵族理想的最⾼尚的部分。
拥有⼟地的贵族通过他获得存在的理由。

This book is to help you to improve further so that you can reach the point people will say that your English is fluent---a level measured by the Cambridge Proficiency Examination, for example.You will see my opinion of the difficulties ahead you and how you can best solve in Lesson 4 of this book. But it may be helpful for me to the main points of my argument here, you start. In the first place, there is quite a long way to go you can feel sure that your English is . You have probably noticed yourself that you can express your ideas in English clearly , you only know one way of saying or writing them.You would like to be able to vary this a little, depending the company around your or the situation you find yourself , just as you would in your own language. the same way, while you understand your teacher perfectly, you may sometimes not it so easy to follow ordinary English or American people do not choose their words so . One object of this book is to “expose”you as many variations of modern English as and help you to use them yourself in the appropriate circumstances.The second main point I want to here is that becoming fluent in English does not on learning a lot of more complicated structures you have studied already. Good modern English is not up of long, complicated sentences. It largely depends on the correct of structures and the connecting words and that link sentences together. You will find some of these in the paragraphs --- “that is to say,”“for example,”“in the first place,”“in the same way,”and so . This book tries to by examples the use of such phrases so that you will be encouraged to try them for yourself in your own speech and .Unit 2To most people, education means schools. But education has many sources as well—the home, the farm, museums, television, advertisements, newspapers and , sports events and practical experience. When one thinks of education, it is important to all these sources.Since ancient certain questions have been asked about education. Different societies have these questions in very different . The following are among the :Who shall be educated? Most of the countries of the world beginning education to everyone. But opinions as to who should receive advanced education. Some countries select advanced education only those students who have proved to be ready for it. In the United States, the door advanced education is kept for everyone for as long as possible. Does this “water down” education by advanced education “too easy”? Some people think , but others do not.How should schools be organized? Some countries have a system of schools for everyone，specialization possible within the single system. maintain specialized schools, some for students as as 13. In the United States, there are both public and schools. The private schools tend to emphasize academic subjects more exclusively the public schools, which generally offer a broader . Is it better to have different of schools for different kinds of students? all children take the same of time to go through schools,should the time be different for different children？The way those in of schools answer these questions depends on their beliefs about schools are for. Unit 3In this book psycho-cybernetics, Dr. Maxwell Maltz explains the amazing results one educator had in improving grades of school-children by changing their self-images. He had observed that when they saw themselves stupid in a certain subject (or stupid general), they unconsciously acted to their self-image. They believed they were , so they acted that . Reasoning that it was their defeatist attitude than any lack of ability was defeating them, the educator set to change their self-images. And he found that when he accomplished that, they nobehaved stupidly!Maltz records this same negative self-image kept a salesman ever reaching more than a certain level of . When his territory was changed a larger and more promising territory, he to make the same dollar amount, not a bit . When the commissions were raised, he l made the same. The trouble was found to be in the conditions of his work, but in his . He had decided he couldn’t exceed a amount, and so he subconsciously prevented himself doing so.Maltz concludes these and other examples that our experiences can work a kind of self-hypnotism on us, suggesting a conclusion about ourselves and then urging us to make it true.Unit 4A man and a woman were seated in a car that had been circling the same area for a half hour. The woman was saying, “why don’t we ask someone?” the man was saying, not for the first time, “I’m sure it’s here somewhere. I’ll just try this street.”Why are so many men reluctant to ask ? Why aren’t women? And why can’t women understand men don’t want to ask? The explanation, for this and for countless minor and frustrations that women and men encounter when they talk to each other, lies the different ways that they use language—differences that begin how girls and boys use as children, growing up in different worlds.Sociologists and psychologists have found that little girls play in small groups or in ; they have a best friend, with whom they spend a lot of time talking. It’s the telling of secrets that them best friends. They learn to use language to negotiate intimacy—to make connections and feel close each other.Boys, on the other hand, tend to play games in larger.High-status boys give orders and boys are pushed ground. So boys learn to use language to preserve independence and negotiate their status, trying to center stage, challenge and resist challenges, display knowledge and verbal .These divergent assumptions about the of language persist into adulthood, where they lie wait behind cross-gender conversations, ready to leap and cause puzzlement or grief. In the of asking for directions, the same interchange is experienced differently by women and . From a woman’s perspective, you ask for help, you get it ,and you get to you’re going. A fleeting connection is made with a stranger, is fundamentally pleasant. But a man is aware that admitting ignorance and asking for information, he positions himself one-down to someone else. Far pleasant, this is humiliating. So it makes sense for him to preserve his independence and self-esteem at the of a little extra travel time.Unit 5There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical ; technology is a method of practical problems (and sometimes creating new problems of the “solution”). Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships observable phenomena in nature and with theories that serve to organize facts and relationships; technology has to do tools, techniques, and procedures for implementing the findings of . Another distinction between science and technology has to with the progress in each.Progress science excludes the human factor. And this is justly . Scientist, who seek to comprehend the and know the truth within the degree of accuracy and certainty, cannot pay attention to their own or other people’s likes or or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people—as . Darwin’s theory of evolution. But even an truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the option of refusing to it! But hardly so with technology; we don not have the option of refusing to the sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to polluted air; and we do not have the option of living in a nonatomic . Unlike science, progress in technology must be measured in of the human factor. Technology must be our slave and not the . The legitimate purpose of technology is to people—people in general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely who presently wish to gain advantage for . Technology must be humanistic if it is to lead a better world.第六册完型填空Unit1On an April afternoon last year, Father George Clements sat alone in his study and wept.minister of Holy Angles Catholic Church on Chicago’s South Side, he had just officiated at a funeralan 18-year-old named Joey. Over the past two years, Father Clements had conducted far tooservices for young people who, Joey, had died of drug overdoses.Surrounding the church and Holy Angels School were record shops and grocery and convenience stores kids went after classes. Prominently displayed in these was a wide array of drug paraphernalia, crack pipes and syringes. Clement’s mind, such displays not only the curiosity of impressionable children but also seemed to legitimize use.Now Joey was gone, and soon other young people would . Where was it going to end? By God, the 57-year-old priest vowed, pulling himself of his chair, it’s going to end here and !Clements marched to a convenience store a few blocks the church and confronted the store owner. “I want you to get of all this drug paraphernalia,” the priest demanded.The store owner looked at Clements as he were crazy. “Get the hell out of my store,” he barked.“Would you sell this stuff to your son or daughter?”Clements asked.“No, of course .”“Then why are you selling it to ?”“Because you niggers care. Now get out.”the window, Clements saw a customer approaching. The priest went and stood in front of the store, “You don’t want to go in there,” he said. “This man is selling drug paraphernalia to kids. People like him are kids are getting addicted and dying.”“You’re right, Father. I want to go in there.”For the next 45 minutes, the priest said the thing to each would-be customer and received the response. A small crowd accumulated, waiting to see the store owner would do. Finally he came out. “Okay, you win,” he said. “ I’ve taken the stuff the shelves.”“Good,”said Clements. “Now bring out here. You and I are going to smash up that stuff right in front of all these people.”Unit 2Some have worried that a message from an advanced society might make us lose faith our own, might deprive us of the initiative to make new if it seemed that others had made those discoveries , or might have other negative consequences. This is rather a student dropping out of school his teachers and textbooks are more learned than he is. We are free to an interstellar message if we find it offensive. If we choose to respond, there is no way the transmitting civilization to determine that its message was received and understood on the tiny distant planet Earth. The translation of a radio from the depths of space, about we can be as slow and cautious as we wish, seems to pose few dangers to mankind; , it holds the greatest promise ofpractical and philosophical benefits.In particular, it is possible that among the first contents of a message may be detailed prescriptions for the avoidance of technological disaster, for a passage through adolescence to . Perhaps the transmissions from advanced civilizations will describe pathways of cultural evolution are to lead to the stability and longevity of an intelligent species, and which paths lead to stagnation or degeneration or disaster. There is, of course, no guarantee such would be the contents of an interstellar message, it would be foolhardy to overlook the . Perhaps there are straightforward , still undiscovered on Earth, to problems of food shortages, population , energy supplies, dwindling resources, pollution and war.。
