But there is one reader in particular who should not be forgotten.Can you guess who? surprised himself and everyone else when he discovered the answer.WRITING FOR MYSELFRussell BakerThe idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville, but it wasn't until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold. Until then I'd been bored by everything associated with English course s. I found English grammar dull and difficult. I hated the assignments to turn out long, lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write.When our class was assigne d to Mr. Fleagle for third-year English I anticipate d another cheerless year in that most tediousof subjects. Mr. Fleagle had a reputation among students for dullness and inability to inspire. He was said to be very formal, rigid and hopelessly out of date. To me he looked to be sixty or seventy and excessively prim. He wore primly severe eyeglasses, his wavy hair was primly cut and primly comb ed. He wore prim suits with necktie s set primly against the collar button s of his white shirts. He had a primly pointed jaw, a primly straight nose, and a prim manner of speaking that was so correct, so gentlemanly, that he seemed a comic antique.I prepared for an unfruitful year with Mr. Fleagle and for a long time was not disappointed. Late in the year we tackle d the informal essay. Mr. Fleagle distribute d a homework sheet offering us a choice of topic s. None was quite so simple-minded as "What I Did on My Summer Vacation," but most seemed to be almost as dull. I took the list home and did nothing until the night before the essay was due(到期的).Lying on the sofa, I finally faced up to the unwelcome task, took the list out of my notebook, and scan ned it. The topic on which my eye stopped was "The Art of Eating Spaghetti."This title produced an extraordinary sequence of mental image s.in Bellevillewhen all of us were seated around the supper table —Uncle Allen, my mother, Uncle Charlie, Doris, Uncle Hal — and Aunt Pat serve d spaghetti for supper. Spaghetti was still a little known foreign dish in those days. Neither Doris nor I had ever eaten spaghetti, and none of the adults had enough experience to be good at it. All the good humor of Uncle Allen's house reawoke in my mind as I recall ed the laughing argument s we had that night about the socially respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth.Suddenly I wanted to write about that, about the warmth and good feeling of it, but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy, not for Mr. Fleagle. It was a moment I wanted to recapture and hold for myself. I wanted to relive the pleasure of that evening. To write it as I wanted, however, would violate all the rules of formal composition I'd learned in school, and Mr. Fleagle would surely give it a failing grade. Never mind. I would write something else for Mr. Fleagle after I had written this thing for myself.When I finished it the night was half gone and there was no time left to compose a proper, respectable essay for Mr. Fleagle. There was no choice next morning but to turn in my tale of theBelleville supper. Two days passed before Mr. Fleagle returned the graded papers, and he returned everyone's but mine. I was preparing myself for a command to report to Mr. Fleagle immediately after school for discipline when I saw him lift my paper from his desk and knock for the class's attention."Now, boys," he said. "I want to read you an essay. This is titled, 'The Art of Eating Spaghetti.'"And he started to read. My words! He was reading my words out loud to the entire class. What's more, the entire class was listening. Listening attentively. Then somebody laughed, then the entire class was laughing, and not in contempt and ridicule, but with open-hearted enjoyment. Even Mr. Fleagle stopped two or three times to hold back a small prim smile.I did my best to avoid show ing pleasure, but what I was feeling was pure delight at this demonstration that my words had the power to make people laugh. In the eleventh grade, at the eleventh hour as it were, I had discovered a calling. It was the happiest moment of my entire school career. When Mr. Fleagle finished he put the final seal on my happiness by saying, "Now that(连用有既然之意,但此处非连用), boys, is an essay, don'tyou see. It's — don't you see —Congratulation s, Mr. Baker."(797 words)New Words and Expressionsoff and onfrom time to time; sometimes 断断续续地;有时possibilityn. 可能(性)take holdbecome established生根,确立borevt. make (sb.) become tired and lose interest 使(人)厌烦associatevt. join or connect together; bring in the mind 使联系起来;使联想assignmentn. a piece of work that is given to a particular person(分配的)工作,任务,作业turn outproduce 编写;生产,制造agony▲n. very great pain or suffering of mind or body (身心的)极度痛苦assignvt. give as a share or duty 分配,分派anticipatevt. expect 预期,期望tediousa. boring and lasting for a long time 乏味的;冗长的reputationn. 名声;名誉inabilityn. lack of power, skill or ability 无能,无力inspirevt. fill (sb.) with confidence, eagerness, etc. 激励,鼓舞formala.

Not knowing what to do, I stood still by the side of the road, tears welling up in my eyes. Then a car pulled in and I heard a voice asking what the matter was.

Before you read it, let me tell you something about its author, Stephen Hawking.Hawking is perhaps the most well-known scientist since Einstein. Like Einstein his work tackles the big questions, questions such as How did the universe begin? Why is the universe the way it is? and How will it end? He is now working on what is sometimes known as the 'theory of everything.' Among other things, this promises to explain what caused the Big Bang that started the universe.But it is not simply the power of Hawking's mind that has led to his fame. For what many people find most striking about him is the contrast between the strength of his mind and the weakness of his body. For for many years Hawking has suffered from an illness that has left him unable to move and to speak normally.Born in England in 1942, Hawking had a normal childhood, and it was not until he was a student at university that his illness started to affect him. Hospital tests showed he was suffering from a disease that weakens control over the muscles. The disease gets worse with time and there is no known cure. But Hawking did not lose heart. As he says, "although there was a cloud hanging over my future, I found, to my surprise, that I was enjoying life more than before. I began to make progress with my research, and I got engaged to a girl called Jane Wilde. That engagement changed my life. It gave me something to live for."Hawking started research at Cambridge and went on to hold the same post that another great scientist, Newton, once held. Over the years his condition has worsened, but even when he finally lost the ability to speak, he managed to get round the problem. He now uses a computer that enables him to select words which are then turned into speech. "The only trouble," the English scientist says, "is that it gives me an American accent!"15/4716/47- 102 - Appendix IPart II Text A2. 1) The importance of the teaching of science in schools.2) The role mass media can play, especially what television can do.Vocabularyinquired in terms of tend precise grasped sufficient conveyin two minds Winning the match today has ensured their team a place in the Cup Final.

Computers, for example, have provided some with the comfort of working from home while at the same time throwing others out of work as their jobs are automated. In the future changes are likely to be even much greater as science reaches out to shape life itself. New organisms (有机体) are already being engineered. New genetically modified crops promise benefits from higher yields and less use of harmful chemicals.But once again we cannot be sure that science will only change our lives for the better. The possibility remains that some modern Frankenstein may carelessly or deliberately let loose a new and19/47- 106-Appendix Idangerous form of life. However, we should have sufficient faith in the good sense of the public to believe that we could prevent this from happening.(146 words)Unit 4Part I Pre-reading TaskScript for the recording:What you are about to hear is an interview with Dr Lee Hertz, the director of a scientific laboratory in Stanford University, California.Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz: Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer:What does the expression the American Dream mean to you?I guess in one way it's the dream of my grandparents. They turned their backson poverty in Poland and set out with high hopes for a new life in America.So the American Dream means getting out of poverty?Then it did. However, when they got to America, they realized that the dream wasn't going to happen, that the streets were not paved with gold and they hadto struggle to make a living. So the dream became the chance for their childrento succeed.Through?Through hard work and giving their kids an education. They thought that through education their children would have the choice of doing what they wanted. That basically life could be what you made it.And do you believe that?Well, America does give some people the opportunity to be what they want to be. Why just some people? Isn't the American Dream an idea everyone can believe in? Yes, but only because our government wants us to believe it. You could say that the American Dream has been used to support the capitalist system. It keepsmost of the population working and spending their money.How?20/47Appendix I107-Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Well, all the time TV shows that the dream of a good life can be reached through money. Advertising tells you to buy and buy so that finally you will get there and the dream will come true.So you're saying it's the dream that makes the system work? Yes, because people become gripped by the need to move up in the world, they have to reach the top. They are never satisfied with what they have. The American Dream is at the end of the rainbow. It's not simply about having enough money to buy the things you need. It's about reaching the level of all the other people who have the money to buy more than you can afford. The American Dream may be in your head, but to find it you have to reach into your pocket.Part II Text AMain Events1)Tony worked as a help at Mr. Crawford's house.2)Tony got a job clearing snow at Mr. Crawford's factory.3)Tony learned to become a skilled worker.4)Tony bought a house with Mr. Crawford's help.5)Tony bought a farm and sent for his family in Italy.

Test Yourself (Unit 1-4) Part ⅠWriting An Unforgettable Lesson In my grade school days, some of my classmates and I would spend our lunch money at the store close to the school. After the meal, we’d walk around, talking and laughing for the rest of the lunch hour. A girl named Nancy was usually with us. But on that particular day she wasn’t there, and as we chatted away, we ended up talking about Nancy. Since opinions about her all seemed to be negative, I added,”Nancy isn’t very smart, either. She’s always asking others for their homework.”When she saw me the next day, Nancy asked,”Did you say you thought I wasn’t smart?”As I stood there looking Nancy in the face, I wished a thousand times that I could take back my cruel words. As I began to answer Nancy’s question I experienced the worst feeling that I had ever had up to that point in my life. In an apologetic voice I answered,”Yes, Nancy, I said it. But I’m truly sorry.”Nancy accepted my apology. But that day as I stood there, with my heart in my throat, I learned a lesson: Never say anything about someone that you wouldn’t want them to hear.

Test Yourself (Unit 5-8) Part ⅠWriting On keeping Petst for a long time. In almost every neighborhood, there are people who like pets and people who don’t. The former group of people think that pets are good and helpful companions. Some of them even go so far as saying that animals are as good as humans, and their rights should be respected. Those who hates pets say that animals are noisy, dirty and dangerous. They think laws should be made to forbid people from keeping dogs and cats in cities and towns. The different opinions on keeping pets, which reflect personal preferences, have caused many disputes and much unpleasantness among people who are close neighbors. Personally I do not like pets. But I think we should learn to respect the rights of pet lovers. We have no right to forbid people to keep pets in their home, as long as the animals are properly taken care of and do not threaten the safety and peace of others.

Unit1大学英语综合教程1课后答案Unit1大学英语综合教程1课后答案Unit 1Part I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:Ways of learning is the topic of this unit. It is also the topic of the song you are about to listen to, called Teach Your Children sung by Crosby, Stills and Nash.Teach Your ChildrenCrosby, Stills and NashYou, who are on the road,Must nave a code that you can live by.And so, become yourselr,Because the past is just a goodbye.Teach your cbildren well,Their lather's hell did slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,The one they picks, the one you'll mow by.Don't you ever ash them why, ir they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.Appendix I - 93 -And you, oi tender years,Can't know the rears that your elders grew by.Ana so please help them with your youtb,They seek the truth before tbey can die.Teacb your parents well,Tbeir children's bell will slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,Tbe one tbey picks, tbe one you'll know by.Don t you ever ask them why, ir tbey told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know tbey love you.The first part of die song is about how parents can inspiretheir children through sharing with them their dreams, their hopes for a better life. It starts with advice on how you need a set of rules, "a code diat you can live by," to guide you on the road of life. Only then will you be able to fully realise all that is within you and "become yourself." Therefore, parents need to teach their children well.And children — "you of tender years" — also have something to teach their parents, for learning is not a one-way street. Children should share their own dreams with their parents so that young and old can get to understand each otiier better.That said, one should not go too far. For some things are perhaps better left unsaid between parents and children. "Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry." At such mo?ments all that there is left to do is to look at one another and sigh, happy in each otiier's love.Part II Text A Text Organization1. 1) The text begins with an anecdote/incident.2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3) The end winds up the text with a suggestion in die form of a question.Points for Comparison/Contrast Chinese Americans1) ways to learn to accomplish a task show a child how to do something, or teach by holding his hand teach children that they should rely on themselves for solutions to problems94 - Appendix I2) attitudes to creativity and skills give greater priority to de?veloping skills at an early age, believing creativity can be promoted over time put more emphasis on fos?tering creativity in young children, thinking skills can be picked up laterVocabulary1) insert 2) on occasion3) investigate 4) In retrospect5) initial 6) phenomena7) attached 8) make up for9) is awaiting 10) exception11) not... in the least 12)promote13) working on 14) in due course15) emerged1) There is a striking contrast between the standard of livingin the north of the country andthe south.2) Natural fiber is said to be superior to synthetic fiber.3) The city's importance as a financial center has evolved slowly.4) His nationality is not relevant to whether he is a good lawyer.5) The poems by a little-known sixteenth-century Italian poet have found their way into some English magazines.3. 1) Chinese isn't a subject that can be picked up in a month. You can't accomplish your goal of mastering the language unless you work at it for years. Well, it sounds as if I'm exag?gerating thedifficulties, but the fact is I'm only telling the truth.2) The principal is somewhat disappointed with the performance of the children. From what she has gathered, some of the teaching staff have neglected their pupils. She has just announced that strict work regulations have been made and that they apply to both Chinese and overseas teachers.3) The teacher-directed and the child-directed approaches to teaching art represent two ex?tremes of opinion. Too many teacher-directed activities cannot be expected to effectively assisLchildren in learning because of the rigid structure. On the other hand, too many child-directed activities may see a curriculum that is totally unstructured and out of con?trol. There are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guided approach would be a superior wayAppendix I - 95 -to guide children's development.

This freedom really helped me grow a lot as a young professional.Everyone I met during this period welcomed me warmly.

However, as the economy is getting stronger, it might be the ideal time to begin your search. If you believe you have the skills and abilities that employers need, it’s important to strategically prepare for the job hunting.First, don’t quit your current job until you’re certain about securing a new one. The best time to look for a job is when you are currently employed. People who are unemployed and desperate for work sometimes make bad decisions in accepting job offers. So you need to consider job offers carefully. Will the new job be better than the one you are having now? What about the location? Will the commute be easy or difficult? Secondly, good English skills can facilitate job hunting and career development. On average, it takes a person about five years to learn English well. However, for people who have already been living in an English-speaking country for several years, they may achieve this in less time. Many cities offer free English lessons through public school systems, or you can learn English online. You can take these classes in the evenings or on weekends.11. The writer believes this is the ideal time for job hunting because of .A. the rising economyB. the increasing exportC. the high consumptionD. the substantial investment12.
