And team sports can help to shape children's personality in a positive way, because they can learn how to cooperate with each other in the competition.3) Martin Luther King and Rosa Parker had a lot in common.

He even speculated whether it would be better for him to rejoin his wife in paradise. Though each of us expressed our deep sympathy, no one thought it appropriate to intrude upon his family uninvited, in consideration of their need for peace and privacy at such a moment.。

However, when it came to academic matters, he was by no means an easy person. Before he started his lecture, he discoursed enthusiastically on theimportance of working in an orderly fashion, of being thoroughly prepared before each class, and of not being content with what you have learned. His attitude towards work was infectious, and by and by I became an ardent math lover, too.

Hundreds of millions ofresidents would have to migrate to safer regions. Therefore, it is no surprise that global warming has made its way onto the agenda of world leaders.。
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。
What attitudes did your family have toward reading when you were a child? Did books surround you? Which books did your parents or other relatives read to you or suggest that you read? How did you feel about books as a child growing up? Read on to see if your experiences in any way match those of the author.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------当你还是个孩子时,你家人对阅读持什么态度?你周围可曾有各种书籍?父母亲戚给你念哪些书?推荐你读哪些书?作为一个渐渐长大的孩子,你对书有些怎样的感受?请读本文,看看你的经历是否与本文作者的经历有相同之处。
One Writer's Beginnings Eudora Welty1 I learned from the age of two or three that any room in our house, at any time of day, was there to read in, or to be read to. My mother read to me. She'd read to me in the big bedroom in the mornings, when we were in her rocker together, which ticked in rhythm as we rocked, as though we had a cricket accompanying the story. She'd read to me in the dining room on winter afternoons in front of the coal fire, with our cuckoo clock ending the story with "Cuckoo", and at night when I'd got in my own bed. I must have given her no peace. Sometimes she read to me in the kitchen while she sat churning, and the churning sobbed along with any story. It was my ambition to have her read to me while I churned; once she granted my wish, but she read off my story before I brought her butter. She was an expressive reader. When she was reading "Puss in Boots," for instance, it was impossible not to know that she distrusted all cats.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------作家起步时尤多拉·威尔提我从两三岁起就知道,家中随便在哪个房间里,白天无论在什么时间,都可以念书或听人念书。
母亲念书给我听。
上午她都在那间大卧室里给我念,两人一起坐在她那把摇椅里,我们摇晃时,椅子发出有节奏的滴答声,好像有只唧唧鸣叫的蟋蟀在伴着读故事。
冬日午后,她常在餐厅里烧着煤炭的炉火前给我念,布谷鸟自鸣钟发出“咕咕”声时,故事便结束了;晚上我在自己床上睡下后她也给我念。
想必我是不让她有一刻清静。
有时她在厨房里一边坐着搅制黄油一边给我念,故事情节就随着搅制黄油发出的抽抽搭搭的声响不断展开。
我的奢望是她念我来搅拌;有一次她满足了我的愿望,可是我要听的故事她念完了,她要的黄油我却还没弄好。
她念起故事来富有表情。
比如,她念《穿靴子的猫》时,你就没法不相信她对猫一概怀疑。
2 It had been startling and disappointing to me to find out that story books had been written by people, that books were not natural wonders, coming up of themselves like grass. Yet regardless of where they came from, I cannot remember a time when I was not in love with them — with the books themselves, cover and binding and the paper they were printed on, with their smell and their weight and with their possession in my arms, captured and carried off to myself. Still illiterate, I was ready for them, committed to all the reading I could give them.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------当我得知故事书原来是人写出来的,书本原来不是什么大自然的奇迹,不像草那样自生自长时,真是又震惊又失望。
不过,姑且不论书本从何而来,我不记得自己有什么时候不爱书——书本本身、封面、装订、印着文字的书页,还有油墨味、那种沉甸甸的感觉,以及把书抱在怀里时那种将我征服、令我陶醉的感觉。
还没识字,我就想读书了,一心想读所有的书。
3 Neither of my parents had come from homes that could afford to buy many books, but though it must have been something of a strain on his salary, as the youngest officer in a young insurancecompany, my father was all the while carefully selecting and ordering away for what he and Mother thought we children should grow up with. They bought first for the future .--------------------------------------------------------------------------------我的父母都不是来自那种买得起许多书的家庭。
然而,虽然买书准得花去他不少薪金,作为一家成立不久的保险公司最年轻的职员,父亲一直在精心挑选、不断订购他和母亲认为儿童成长应读的书。
他们购书首先是为了我们的前程。
4 Besides the bookcase in the living room, which was always called "the library", there were the encyclopedia tables and dictionary stand under windows in our dining room. Here to help us grow up arguing around the dining room table were the Unabridged Webster, the Columbia Encyclopedia, Compton's Pictured Encyclopedia, the Lincoln Library of Information, and later the Book of Knowledge. In "the library", inside the bookcase were books I could soon begin on —and I did, reading them all alike and as they came, straight down their rows, top shelf to bottom. My mother read secondarily for information; she sank as a hedonist into novels. She read Dickens in the spirit in which she would have eloped with him. The novels of her girlhood that had stayed on in her imagination, besides those of Dickens and Scott and Robert Louis Stevenson, were Jane Eyre, Trilby, The Woman in White, Green Mansions, King Solomon's Mines.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------除了客厅里有一向被称作“图书室”的书橱,餐厅的窗子下还有几张摆放百科全书的桌子和一个字典架。
这里有伴随我们在餐桌旁争论着长大的《韦氏大词典》、《哥伦比亚百科全书》、《康普顿插图百科全书》、《林肯资料文库》,以及后来的《知识库》。
“图书馆”书橱里的书没过多久我就能读了——我的确读了,全都读了,按着顺序,一排接着一排读,从最上面的书架一直读到最下面的书架。
