2023年大学英语精读第三册第3课Why,I,Teach,3篇大学英语精读第三册第3课Why I Teach1Every teacher probably asks himself time and again: What are the reasons for choosing teaching as a career? Do the rewards teaching outweigh the trying ments? Answering these questions is not a simple task. Let“s see what the author says.Why I TeachPeter G. BeidlerWhy do you teach? My friend asked the question when I told him that I didn"t want to be considered for an administrative position. He was puzzled that I did not want what was obviously a "step up" toward what all Americans are taught to want when they grow up: money and power.Certainly I don"t teach because teaching is easy for me. Teaching is the most difficult of the various ways I have attempted to earn my living: mechanic, carpenter, writer. For me, teaching is a red-eye, sweaty-palm, sinking-stomach profession. Red-eye, because I never feel ready to teach no matter how late I stay up preparing. Sweaty-palm, because I"m always nervous before I enter the classroom, sure that I will be found out for the fool that I am. Sinking-stomach, because I leave the classroom an hourlater convinced that I was even more boring than usual.Nor do I teach because I think I know answers, or because I have knowledge I feel pelled to share. Sometimes I am amazed that my students actually take notes on what I say in class!Why, then, do I teach?I teach because I like the pace of the academic calendar. June, July, and August offer an opportunity for reflection, research and writing.I teach because teaching is a profession built on change. When the material is the same, I change —— and, more important, my students change.I teach because I like the freedom to make my own mistakes, to learn my own lessons, to stimulate myself and my students. As a teacher, I"m my own boss. If I want my freshmen to learn to write by creating their own textbook, who is to say I can"t? Such courses may be huge failures, but we can all learn from failures.I teach because I like to ask questions that students must struggle to answer. The world is full of right answers to bad questions. While teaching, I sometimes find good questions.I teach because I enjoy finding ways of getting myself and my students out of the ivory tower and into the real world. I once taught a course called "Self-Reliance in a Technological Society." My 15 students read Emerson, Thoreau, and Huxley. They kept diaries. They wrote termpapers.But we also set up a corporation, borrowed money, purchased a run-down house and practiced self-reliance by renovating it. At the end of the semester, we would the house, repaid our loan, paid or taxes, and distributed the profits among the group.So teaching gives me pace, and variety, and challenge, and the opportunity to keep on learning.I have left out, however, the most important reasons why I teach.One is Vicky. My first doctoral student, Vicky was an energetic student who labored at her dissertation on a little-known 14th century poet. She wrote articles and sent them off to learned journals. She did it all herself, with an occasional nudge from me. But I was there when she finished her dissertation, learned that her articles were accepted, got a job and won a fellowship to Harvard working on a book developing ideas she"d first had as my student.Another reason is George, who started as an engineering student, then switched to English because he decided he liked people better than things.There is Jeanne, who left college, but was brought back by her classmates because they wanted her to see the end of the self-reliance house project. I was here when she came back. I was there when she told me that she later became interested in the urban poor and went on to e acivil rights lawyer.There is Jacqui, a cleaning woman who knows more by intuition than most of us learn by *ysis. Jacqui has decided to finish high school and go to college.These are the real reasons I teach, these people who grow and change in front of me. Being a teacher is being present at the creation, when the clay begins to breathe.A "promotion" out of teaching would give me money and power. But I have money. I get paid to do what I enjoy: reading, talking with people, and asking question like, "What is the point of being rich?"And I have power. I have the power to nudge, to fan sparks, to suggest books, to point out a pathway. What other power *?But teaching offers something besides money and power: it offers love. Not only the love of learning and of books and ideas, but also the love that a teacher feels for that rare student who walks into a teacher"s life and begins to breathe. Perhaps love is the wrong word: magic might be better.I teach because, being around people who are beginning to breathe, I occasionally find myself catching my breath with them.大学英语精读第三册第3课Why I Teach2administrativea. of the management of affairs 行政的，管理的administrationn. 管理(部门)，行政(机关)puzzlevt. fill with doubt and confusion 使迷惑step (-) upn. promotion; increase in size, speed, etc.mechanicn. skilled workman, esp. one who uses or repairs machines and tools 机械工;机修工sweatya. covered with sweat, sweatingpalma. 手掌professionn. occupation, esp. one requiring special training, such as law, medicine, or teachingconvincevt. make (sb.) feel certain; cause (sb.) to realizepelvt. force (sb. or sth. to do sth.)pacen. rate or speed of development, or in walking, etc. 速度;步速calendarn. 日程表，日历opportunityn. favourable occasion or chancereflectionn. careful thinking; consideration 深思;考虑reflect vi.stimulatevt. encourage; excite 刺激;激励freshmann. student in his first year at a college or universityfailuren. a person, attempt, or thing that fails; lack of successivoryn. 象牙ivory towern. place or condition of retreat from the world of action into a world of ideas and dreams 象牙塔self-reliancen. ability to do things and make decisions by oneself 依靠自己;自力更生reliancen. trust, confidence; dependence 信赖;信心;依靠technologicala. of or related to technology 技术的corporationn.

张楚雪Victoria 翻译班P19 WritingIn what way do you think college is a time of growth and expansion?Everybody says that going to college means leaving your comfort zone ,which symbolized saying goodbye to your most familiar things, father and mother, close friends, lovey home, every place you could pointed clearly on the map and a carefree lifestyle. Almost all the information you could get from diverse media are telling you learn to be independent and win a place in the new city. Obviously, I believe the popular theory as my life philosophy. And even at the first national holiday after leaving home, I firmly rejected the suggestion of my mom that she would flied to see me. On the contrary, I told her that I was going to make a full use of this time and set basis for rooting in this city in the future.While after a whole college year, things happened to me make a change on the original ideas.At first, I had to admit, I did spend a very enjoyable time in the first semester. Meeting new friends coming from all over the coun try, join student’s hobby associations, participating in the most popular activities in the school and starting to set my steps in the capital of China, the city I always dreamed about traveling in. College did brings to me countless for-the-first-time exp erience and unprecedented expansion And gradually, I was not willing to answer my mother’s phone call because I thought I completely get out of the control of her and it’s no need to share my story with her.Soon, life proved how stupid I was at that time.Last summer holiday, I stayed in Korea for one and half a month as teenager volunteer. During this time, I had to arrange the accommodation, transportation, hard relationships with foreign volunteers and stand long-time discomfort in a strange place wher e I couldn’t understand local language. Everyday life was coming like a struggle for me, let alone our internal dissension and sharp conflict with mean house-owner. We were forced to move home three times in one week. In this terrible week, I walked alone in the pouring rain carrying all my heavy baggage and took more than twenty subway stations. One week before flying back to China, I couldn’t help but cry desperately in the phone call to my mom and told her I missed home so much for the first time. So wei rd, I’ve experience so many for-the-first-time things, but that’s my first time talking about miss to the people who are closest to me.Actually, the experience in Korea is just the prelude to the real society, and compared to which, life at Beihang University is simply romantic symphonies. How self-righteous and self-willed I once was, and how proud and childish I became, thinking everything around my hand and despise the love and care from my parents. I wasn’t aware of how precious it is.People talking about the growth and expansion as opening up and adventure in the new world, but I regard it as when I walking further and further in my way, I will always remember to look back. And whenever I turn my head, I will find my parents looking at me, supporting me and loving me. And I think that’s what I learn after leaving home. Similar to role converse, I am no longer the little girl who is waiting to be cared and enjoy love unilaterally, but a mature younger generation who knows gratitude, tenderness and give more love back.To be independent is good, but you don’t have to bury all your past and give up the people who you love. After all, you are not alone in this world.。

大学英语精读第三版第二册作文范文English:The importance of environmental protection cannot be overstated. In recent years, the accelerating pace of industrialization and urbanization has led to significant damage to the environment, including air pollution, water contamination, deforestation, and loss of biodiversity. As a result, it is crucial for individuals, communities, and governments to take proactive measures to protect and preserve the natural world for future generations. This can be achieved through actions such as reducing carbon emissions, conserving water and energy, advocating for sustainable practices, and supporting policies that prioritize environmental conservation. Additionally, raising public awareness about the urgency of environmental protection and promoting eco-friendly lifestyles can also contribute to a healthier and more sustainable planet.中文翻译:环境保护的重要性不言而喻。

1.Unit 1In my opinion, I agree that college is a time of growth and expansion. We students go to college from high school to acquire further knowledge. Look back, when I stepped into the campus, I knew little about the college. But now I am mature.Before we entered the college, we depended on our parents. Although we cannot completely be independent from our parents, we have been young adult and we have been independent from our parents in some aspects. Also, we start to have our own values and beliefs. W e don’t just follow our parents’ thoughts any more. We have grown.As we all know, in college class, every student has chances to deliver speeches and make presentation in front of others, which requests us to do preparing work adequately and learn to be confident. And I think this is one kind of growth .Apart from study, there is also club work. We won’t forget the student union. The work experiences in it, makes me realize how important the communicating skills and the ability of group work are.Besides, entering the college widen our views. We meet lots of different people from different cultures. Our circle of friends is expanding and we have more and more friends from different places. Of course, we can receive much new knowledge and we are changing our way of learning through realizing new things. After the college education, most of us will be more mature and be able to deal with complicated situations well.So, I agree that college is a time of growth and expansion.2. unit 2The book that I think has influenced me most is the novel " old man and sea " of Hemingway, a famous writer of U.S.A. I admire the old fisherman's will in the novel very much, he lets me understand that a person must have unremitting spirit so that he will succeed .What the novel describes is an old fisherman who is almost sixty years old. When he went to the sea and fished alone once, he had angled to a big Marlin fish. But the big Marlin fish attracted odd herds of sharks, but the old man was still unwilling to give up, and thought that : It is really too close from here to coast, perhaps there are bigger fish in the farther place ……" Seeing us again, meet some little difficulties at ordinary times , all of us complain bitterly. We are the future of the motherland, so we should be as ambitious as this old man, and go to pursue greater goal.I admire the unremitting spirit very much. Though knowing rival's strength is very strong , he has not shrunk back at all but meets the difficulty.Old fisherman's spirit that makes great efforts to struggle without fear of danger and difficulty has a claim to our respect. We should be like him, be positive, be unremitting to do anything, not be satisfied with the current situation, and not give up halfway to difficulty. Only in this way, could we obtain greater success and victory .3. unit 3Six years ago, Vera broke off with the man. I think it is because the man’s egotism. He was young, strong, financially secure, fond of traveling like he was, and above all, madly in love with her. But she decided to end this relationship because he was too egotistical and self-engrossed. And he was so wrapped up in himself that he hadn’t a corner in his heart for anybody else.Now six years later, she still has the opportunity to renew their relationship. She is alone andlonely, and he is successful and financially able to help her realize her dreams. Yet she leaves him again because she recognizes that he has not changed. Firstly, she said she hated the cold weather, “and the worst of it is that the older one grows”, the man interrupted her. And later he asked her “you were saying—the older one grows”, he was so impolite to her. Secondly, when he asked her if she still remembered that they used to talk of going there, he gave a strange half laugh and leaned back in his chair. This behavior is disrespectful. Thirdly, when he said, “when you look at me with those wild eyes I feel that I could tell you things that I would never breathe to another human being.” , there seems to be a hint of mockery in his voice. Those all indicate that the man is still egotistical.So I think she came to realize that it was impossible to pick up their relationship when they met again through these.4. unit 4Diogenes is said to have had an interview with Alexander the Great, who opened the conversation with “I am Alexander the Great.” The philosopher answered, “And I am Diogenes the Cynic.” Alexander then asked him what things he can do for him, “Stand to one side. You are blocking the sunlight.” the philosopher replied. Alexander is said to have been so struck with the Cynic’s self-possession that he went away remarking, “If I were not Alexander, I should wish to be Diogenes.”Alexander is no doubt the perfect model of a superman, he is everything but Diogenes is not. When Alexander asked Diogenes whether there was anything he could do for him, he of course was thinking of money, power, a job, a decent house or a warm garment. But Diogenes did not want any of these. What he wanted from the king was not to block the sunlight, not to interfere with his life, not to stand in his way.Diogenes made his philosophy —"natural life" spread throughout Greece, and Alexander bring Greek civilization to the whole world. So Alexander was what Diogenes called himself, a cosmopolites, "citizen of the world ". Like Diogenes, he admired the heroic figure of Hercules, the mighty conqueror who labors to help mankind while all others toil and sweat only for themselves. He knew that of all men then alive in the world only Alexander the conqueror and Diogenes the beggar were truly free.Alexander is free because he has the power to satisfy people’s desires, so he asked Diogenes what things he can do for him. But Diogenes is also free because he does not have any of those desires. And I think it is the same reason that Alexander said that if he were not Alexander, he should be Diogenes.5. unit 5I think the abuse of chemical pesticides is widespread today. This article described the environment degradation in the United States, but this problem is usually much more serious in developing countries. The abuse of chemical pesticides seems caught up in an endless spiral. The insects have evolved super races immune to the particular insecticide used, hence human will develop a deadlier one than that. And the chemical pesticides pollute rivers and lakes, cause frequent acid rains and so on. There are also other environment problems, such as sand storms, soil erosion, desertification, deforestation and over-fishing, and the list is far from complete.So we should have a sense of urgency as well as a strong sense of duty to contribute to thesolution of this problem. We must do everything possible to keep our water and air clean, to protect our land and soil, to preserve our forests, rivers and lakes, marshland, wilderness, to stop the global warming and to save the endangered species.When it comes to keeping away from contaminated food, firstly, we should let people recognize that we ought not to develop our economy at the expense of our ecosystem, namely strengthen people’s environmental awareness. Secondly, we college students can make suggestions to some industries on how to deal with the waste water and materials. Finally, we also can do some researches or develop some methods to help purify the contaminated things. All in all, we should do everything in our power.6. unit 6Drugs become more and more accessible to people nowadays and cause several problems. As far as I am concerned, they can be solved from two respects.On account of the serious situation now, I think our government should limit the drugs and severely crack down on drug crimes. Criminalization may be a quick and efficient means to work it out, cracking down on users, pushers and producers and imposing stiff sanctions against property. Some people think taking drugs is a form of recreation, so I think government can rising the price of drugs by limiting drugs. Once the expense is higher than the benefits and the amusement offered by drugs, they may reconsider and begin searching for cheap forms of recreation.On the other hand, if we want to eliminate drugs to root, there is essential need for a powerful method that takes into effect in a long term. The government can educate people to keep away from the drugs in many ways. Deglamorization is absolutely the suitable process for us to put into practice. For a long time, taking drugs has been regarded as a fashion among young adults, owing to the impression of attraction and charm projected by TV ads. We can ban this sort of advertisement while encouraging society to present this drug-taking as a confession of weakness, panic and anxiety, which are not what they want to show or even what they hate.With the two approaches working together, the drug problems can be handled well. And we are supposed to call for the government and the whole society to support the drugs’ blue sky by their arms!7. unit 8Nowadays, China has already stepped into an aging society according to international standards. And people will meet many difficulties in their everyday life when getting old. Common problems for senior citizens are poor health, inconvenient public facilities, and loneliness. So family care, community-based services and social welfare are necessary to help our old population in helping and supporting their lives.Firstly, young people are busy with their work everyday, and they don’t have time to take care of them, it means that if their parents feel uncomfortable, there is no body else know this. So it is necessary for old people to go to hospital frequently, and they may choose take public transport to go there, and this will involve the problem about inconvenient public facilities. When people get older, it is likely for them to walk with difficulty. And many places don’t have convenient public facilities, so it will cause old people lost their footing and were precipitated to the ground. Thirdly , old people will feel lonely. Though young people can try their best to satisfy parents’ desires asmany as possible, old people’s spiritual fulfillment can’t be satisfied. So young couples may pay more visits to their parents' homes during weekends and holidays. The young can also help the old more in public，offering seats on buses, for example. Additionally, rural pension is a major problem now facing China society, low coverage of social pension is serious.However, the most important thing to help the old is that the society should consider more for senior citizens. We should build up more rest homes, hospitals, and entertainment centers with high-grade service specially for old people.8. unit 9Globalization has positive and negative effects.First of all, I will talk about the positive effects. Globalization for developing countries is an opportunity. For example, in 1970s, China was undeveloped economically and culturally. In the context of globalization, China carri ed a policy named “reform and opening up”. Using this policy, China spent ten years to make the gross national production higher and make people get higher. Also, one of the most visible positive effects of globalization is the improved quality of products due to global competition. Customer service and “the customer is the king” have led to improved quality of products and services. And the most powerful positive effects of globalization on women and men both is the spread of education. Today, you can search the best education facilities in the world and move to there. A person living in the US can even go to another continent for a new experience and some courses which one may not find in the home country.It does will know that globalization is a trend and every country. But there also are negative effects.First, rich and poor countries experience effects from the globalization. However the key is that in this background the rich countries become richer and the poor countries become poorer. It means that the benefits of globalization is not universal. Second, globalization damages the local environment. The global trade liberalization has accelerated the consumption of global resources and it direct threat to the Earth's biological diversity system. Third, globalization makes the world economy instable. In the background of globalization, countries have a close economic links, so if one country's economic system had problems and it will be linked to other related countries, so the joint-relationship is inevitable.G lobalization has brought more positive changes to individual’s lives, even if it has many negatives, but in fact, people can not separable from globalization.9. unit 10The role Lincoln played in bringing the war to a close is a spiritual pillar, a martial leader.First of all, the North bourgeoisie and people that Lincoln led fought against the south. He was always the representative of justice and the direction of popular feeling. The Lincoln administration took measures, and arouse the enthusiasm of people. As Lincoln said, the war broke out because the American people had become proud and forgot God’s mission. It was a lesson God wanted them to learn. Therefore there were no losers in this war. All Americans had won. They had all achieved a rebirth. So I think Lincoln was a spiritual pillar in people’s hearts. Also, Lincoln was a martial leader. When the northern army encountered a crushing defeat, many people at home required to stop the war, but Lincoln strained every nerve to inspire soldiers to fight bravely by using his Attic faith of victory. And in the address at Cettysburg, Lincoln said,“It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.” Lincoln had an eye for military decision, and had flexible Political and military strategies, and he solved the crisis successfully.So I think the role Lincoln played in bringing the war to a close is a spiritual pillar, a martial leader.10. unit 11How history should be taught at school depends on what teachers hope students to acquire from history study. Many students think history is great bu t they don’t like history lessons. So I think history should be taught freely, not give them others comments, but let themselves to think by themselves.Now our history are taught like this: teachers spend much time on preparing lessons, they are leading roles in class, and that students listen to them carefully is enough. Our students get history by teacher telling them, but not they explore by themselves.We can compare our history teaching with Germans and Americans. As for Germans, if they learn The Franco-Prussian War, their teacher will require them read much first hand information. For example, the speech text of Bismarck. Teachers will require them discuss the foreign policy that Prussia used at that time through the speech text, and analyze the true breaking reason of The Franco-Prussian War. As for Americans, teachers only tell students the happening, the development and the process, and not judge the event subjectively, though it is about those important events like the second world war, students judge the history responsibility by themselves.So we can get two points from the two countries, and our history lessons should be also taught like this. Firstly, let students contact with original documents directly. This first hand information is good for us cognize history. Secondly, teachers should give more weight to develop the independent thinking and judging ability of students. Thirdly, teach students to feel with themselves in history events. History is about human beings, so any important events are connected with the survival conditions of human, so we need get close to human feelings by history lessons.Only in this way that history is taught, can history lessons work really.11. unit 12The fiction the most dangerous game using the minute description about Rainsford and the general Zaroff, shows adventurous scenes to people, and speaks highly of the spirits that Rainsford showed when he struggled with the general constantly, the confidence and calm, the braveness and resourcefulness. Though the fiction is not long, but the structure and the plots are complementary to each other, and offer much food for thought, and arouse our thinking about human even about the world.Rainsford is a Warm, honest and optimistic young man. When he faced with all kinds of adventurous risks, he was always with a strong desire to survival, and kept his confidence and calm. Though he was in poor position, he transferred the disadvantages to advantages dependingon his calm, resourcefulness and braveness. And finally he changed danger into safety , and won the right to survive. But Zaroff is different. He was crazy about hunting, and was full of expectations about the hunting which was about to start. He had strong bloodthirsty desires, and regarded killing people as homely food. These all indicate his arbitrariness and cruelty, even his extreme contempt. And his hunting human game is inhuman and what heaven and earth will not tolerate. So this also destines his final fail.And through this fiction, we should thinking about human. If we human lose our reasoning power, play a role of Zaroff, and develop the jungle law to a extreme degree, the human society will bring destruction on itself. So only when human respect the law of development, respect other species, and respect ourselves, can human society develop harmoniously. I think this is what the writer intends to communicate.12. unit 13The abuse of power damages the social equity severely, and causes the instability of society, and makes people lose belief in government. Then people don’t believe administrative officers, and don’t support and understand administrative officers. Thus it leads to a tense relationship, and forms a vicious circle.some administrative officers discharge their duties, and feather their own nests. They would rather sacrifice collective interest in order to get their own benefits. Actually, there are some administrative officers abuse their power. Though they said “use power in right ways” in public, they think power is really a way to get their own benefits.For example, Zhang paid a fine of 100 yuan on the spot because of traffic violation, and he said several angry words about the punishment of the traffic police. But in the end, he was added to pay another 100 yuan for the traffic violation. This is the abuse of power. The traffic police should enforce the law in the range of his power, but not add the fine because of the angry words. His way of using power is casual and makes the enforcement lose justice.There is another example. The driving trainers said that trainees could use the training car for private affairs with paying money. But the training cars belong to the driving school and the driving trainers have no power to allow using training cars for other things. Driving trainers abused their power, and it is unfair.Through the two examples, we can see the abuse of power has serious harms, so people ought to use power in right ways and protect the fairness of society.13. unit 15(writing 2)Through this story, I think it is because of the racism. As for “ like a man trying to run a race in iron shoes”, we can see that Rensburg wanted to learn more about Edward, so he invited to split a bottle with him. It is just as a man trying to run a race. But Rensburg led him to a apartment building, but he has to drink in the passage, so we can see that a man in iron shoes. As for “not understanding why he cannot move”, I think it is because there exists an invisible wall between them which hampers their free communication and full understanding, and it is racism.we can see that Rensburg wanted to communicate with black people , but he couldn’t take the first step. In fact, the two persons are both anxious to reach out to each other, but they do not know how. Obviously, there exists an invisible wall between them, not just a wall imposed by apartheid laws, but a wall deep in their hearts. Racism has been a serious problem throughout human history,and this barrier between white people and black people has deeply ingrained in their hearts. Actually, racism of course is based on prejudice, and prejudice can lead to tremendous human suffering, be it racial, religious or political. Moreover, racism or any other form of prejudice does not only involve government and politicians, it exists on a personal level.But why Rensburg couldn’t move, I think it is that he feared to break the racism, and there is a wall that stopped his steps, and the wall is deep-rooted racism concept.。

大学英语三级作文范文英文回答：As a college student, I believe that there are both advantages and disadvantages to living on campus. On the one hand, living on campus provides a sense of community and allows for easy access to campus resources, such as the library, gym, and dining halls. It also gives students the opportunity to form close friendships and participate in various campus activities. For example, when I was living on campus, I was able to join a study group with my classmates and we would often stay up late discussing our assignments and helping each other out. This sense of camaraderie and support is something that I cherish from my time living on campus.On the other hand, living on campus can also have its drawbacks. For one, the cost of living on campus can be quite high, and some students may find it difficult to afford. Additionally, living in close quarters with so manyother students can sometimes lead to conflicts and noise disturbances. I remember there were times when my roommate and I would have disagreements about cleanliness and noise levels, which could be quite stressful.中文回答：作为一名大学生，我认为住校有利有弊。
