There are changes in the economic situation so that people may spend more or less on clothes; also new materials and colours become available,and people get different ideas about what to wear when they travel to other places or watch filmsand TV.6 Translate the paragraph into Chinese.Sometimes the hemline indicator, as it‘s called, can even precede and predict a change in the mood of the stock market long before it actually happens. In September 2007, at the New York fashion shows, which were displaying their styles for spring 2008, the trend was for much longer dresses and skirts, many to mid-calf or even down to the ankles. Some people felt this showed that the hemline indicator was no longer reliable, and that designers no longer dictated what people would wear. During the London and New York fashion shows in September 2008, hemlines continued to drop. But sure enough, in the fall of 2008, the stock market indexes fell dramatically when the banking crisis hit the US, Europe and then the rest of the world. Hemlines were no longer following the stock market – they were showing the way and indicating future economic trends.有时候,所谓的裙摆指标甚至能事先早早就预告股市的变化。

Unit 4A View of MountainsJonathan Schell1. On August 9, 1945, the day the atomic bombwas dropped on Nagasaki, YosukeYamahata, a photographer serving in the Japanese army, was dispatched to the destroyed city. The hundred or so pictures he took the next day constitute the fullest photographic record of nuclear destruction in existence. Hiroshima, destroyed three days earlier, had largely escaped the camera ' s lens in thefirst day after the bombing. It was therefore left to Yamahata to record,methodically —and, as it happe ns, with a great and simple artistry —the effects on a humanpopulation of a nuclear weapononly hours after it had been used. Some of Yamahata 's pictures show corpses charred in the peculiar way in which a nuclearfireball chars its victims. They have been burned by light-tech nically speaking, by the “thermal pulse ” —and their bodies areoften branded with the patterns of their clothes, whose colors absorb light in differentdegrees. One photograph shows a horse twisted under the cart it had been pulling.Another shows a heap of something that once had been a human being hanging over a ledge into a ditch. A third shows a girl who has somehow survived unwounded standing in the open mouth of a bomb shelter and smiling an unearthly smile, s hocking us with thesight of ordinary life, whichotherwise seems to have been left behind for good in the scenes we are witnessing.Stretching into the distance on all sides are fields of rubble dotted with fires, and, in thebackground, a view of mountains. We can seethe mountains because the city is gone. That absence, even more than wreckage, contains the heart of the matter. The true measure of the event lies not in what remains but in all that has disappeared.2. It took a few seconds for the United States to destroy Nagasaki with theworld 's second atomic bomb, but it took fifty years for Yamahata's pictures of the event to makethe journey back from Nagasaki to the United States. They were shown for the first time in this country in 1995, at the International Center for Photography in New York.Arriving a half-century late, they are still news. The photographs display the fate of a single city, but their meaning is universal, since, in our age of nuclear arms, what happened to Nagasaki can, in a flash, happen to any city in the world. In the photographs, Nagasakicomes into its own. Nagasaki has always been in the shadow of Hiroshima, as if thehuman imagination had stumbled to exhaustion in the wreckage of the first ruined citywithout reaching even the outskirts of the second. Yet the bombing of Nagasaki is incertain respects the fitter symbol of the nuclear danger that still hangs over us. It is proof that, having once used nuclear weapons, wecan use them again. It introduces the idea of a series -the series that, with tens of thousands of nuclear weapons remaining inexistence, continues to threaten everyone. (The unpredictable, open-ended character of the series is suggested by the fact that the second bomb originally was to be dropped on the city of Kokura, which was spared Nagasaki 's fate only because bad weatherprotected it from view.) Each picture therefore seemednot so much an image of something that happened a half-century ago as a window cut intothe wall of the photography center showing what soon could easily happen to NewYork.Wherever the exhibit might travel, moreover, the view of threatened future from these“windows” would be roughly accurate, since, although every intact city is different from every other, all cities that suffer nuclear destruction will look much the same.3. Yamahata's pictures afford a glimpse of the end of the world. Yet in ourday, when the challenge is not just to apprehend the nuclear peril but to seize a God-given opportunity to dispel it once and for all, we seem to need, in addition, some other picture to counterpoise against ruined Nagasaki -one showing not what we would lose through our failure but what we would gain by oursuccess. What might that picture be, though? How do you show the opposite of the end of the world? Should it be Nagasaki, intact and alive, before the bombwasdropped -or perhaps the spared city of Kokura? Should it be a child, or a mother and child, or perhaps the Earth itself? None seems adequate, for how can we give a definite form to that which can assumeinfinite forms, namely, the lives of all human beings, now and in the future? Imagination, faced with either the end of the world or its continuation, must remain incomplete. Only action can satisfy.4. Once, the arrival in the world of new generations took care of itself.Now, they can come into existence only if, through an act of faith and collective will, we ensure their right to exist. Performing that act is the greatest of the responsibilities of the generations now alive. The gift oftime is the gift of life, forever, if we know how to receive it.望远山乔纳森•谢尔1 1945 年8 月9 日,一颗原子弹投向长崎。
Unit 1Never Give In, Never, Never, NeverWinston ChurchillAlmost a year has passed since I came down here at your Head Master's kind invitation in order to cheer myself and cheer the hearts of a few of my friends by singing some of our own songs. The ten months that have passed have seen very terrible catastrophic events in the world—ups and downs, misfortunes—but can anyone sitting here this afternoon, this October afternoon, not feel deeply thankful for what has happened in the time that has passed and for the very great improvement in the position of our country and of our home? Why, when I was here last time we were quite alone, desperately alone, and we had been so for five or six months. We were poorly armed. We are not so poorly armed today; but then we were very poorly armed. We had the unmeasured menace of the enemy and their air attack still beating upon us, and you yourselves had had experience of this attack; and I expect you are beginning to feel impatient that there has been this long lull with nothing particular turning up!But we must learn to be equally good at what is short and sharp and what is long and tough. It is generally said that the British are often better at the last. They do not expect to move from crisis to crisis; they do not always expect that each day will bring up some noble chance of war; but when they very slowly make up their minds that the thing has to be done and the job put through and finished, then, even if it takes months—if it takes years—they do it.Another lesson I think we may take, just throwing our minds back to our meeting here ten months ago and now, is that appearances are often very deceptive, and as Kipling well says, we must "... meet with Triumph and Disaster. And treat those two impostors just the same."You cannot tell from appearances how things will go. Sometimes imagination makes things out far worse than they are; yet without imagination not much can be done. Those people who are imaginative see many more dangers than perhaps exist; certainly many more will happen; but then they must also pray to be given that extra courage to carry this far-reaching imagination. But for everyone, surely, what we have gone through in this period—I am addressing myself to the school—surely from this period of ten months this is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in except to convictions of honour and goodsense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy. We stood all alone a year ago, and to many countries it seemed that our account was closed, we were finished. All this tradition of ours, our songs, our school history, this part of the history of this country, were gone and finished and liquidated.Very different is the mood today. Britain, other nations thought, had drawn a sponge across her slate. But instead our country stood in the gap. There was no flinching and no thought of giving in; and by what seemed almost a miracle to those outside these islands, though we ourselves never doubted it, we now find ourselves in a position where I say that we can be sure that we have only to persevere to conquer.You sang here a verse of a school song: you sang that extra verse written in my honour, which I was very greatly complimented by and which you have repeated today. But there is one word in it I want to alter—I wanted to do so last year, but I did not venture to. It is the line: "Not less we praise in darker days."I have obtained the Head Master's permission to alter darker to sterner. "Not less we praise in sterner days."Do not let us speak of darker days: let us speak rather of sterner days. These are not dark days; these are great days—the greatest days our country has ever lived; and we must all thank God that we have been allowed, each of us according to our stations, to play a part in making these days memorable in the history of our race.绝不屈服,绝不,绝不,绝不温斯顿·丘吉尔1 将近一年前,应贵校校长盛情邀请,我来到这里唱了几首我们自己的歌曲,既为自己加油,也为一些朋友打气。

Unit 4 A View of Mountains课文翻译综合教程四Mountains have always held a special fascination for human beings. From their majestic beauty to their rugged terrain, mountains have captivated our imagination through the ages. In this unit, we will explore the significance of mountains in different cultures, as well as the impact they have on the environment and human societies.In many cultures, mountains are considered sacred or divine. They are often associated with gods and spirits, believed to possess supernatural powers. For example, in Hinduism, the Himalayas are believed to be the abode of Lord Shiva, one of the most important deities in the religion. Similarly, in Greek mythology, Mount Olympus was the dwelling place of the gods. These beliefs not only reflect the awe-inspiring nature of mountains but also the spiritual connection that people feel towards them.Aside from their cultural significance, mountains also play a crucial role in regulating the climate and supporting biodiversity. Mountains act as natural barriers, preventing the movement of air masses and influencing local weather patterns. They also capture moisture from the atmosphere, leading to the formation of rivers and providing a source of freshwater for surrounding regions. The diverse range of habitats found in mountains supports numerous plant and animal species, many of which are unique and endemic to these environments.Furthermore, mountains have shaped human societies in various ways. Historically, mountainous regions have provided natural defenses againstinvaders, making them ideal locations for fortresses and strongholds. This is evident in the construction of medieval castles and hilltop citadels that can be found in mountainous areas around the world. Additionally, mountains have been a source of valuable resources such as minerals, timber, and medicinal plants. The extraction of these resources has not only contributed to economic development but also posed environmental challenges.However, the significance of mountains is threatened by various factors, including climate change and unsustainable human activities. Rising temperatures and melting glaciers pose a direct threat to mountain ecosystems. Changes in precipitation patterns can lead to increased frequency of landslides and flash floods, endangering both human lives and biodiversity. Furthermore, deforestation, illegal mining, and over-tourism can degrade mountain landscapes, disrupting fragile ecosystems and affecting the livelihoods of local communities.In order to preserve the beauty and ecological value of mountains, it is crucial to adopt sustainable practices. This includes promoting responsible tourism, implementing effective land-use planning, and supporting local communities in sustainable resource management. Additionally, international cooperation and policies aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions are essential in mitigating the impacts of climate change on mountain ecosystems.In conclusion, mountains hold a significant place in human culture and the natural world. Their spiritual and cultural significance, environmental importance, and influence on human societies make them worthy ofadmiration and protection. By valuing and safeguarding mountains, we can ensure their preservation for future generations to appreciate and enjoy.。

In addition, he should have initiative and creativity. Having initiative means the worker should be ready to grasp every opportunity to display his outstanding ability.In addition, a worker should make clear the nature and significance of the work he does, be responsible for whatever he is doing and plunge himself into the work with vigorous enthusiasm. If he can do so, he will find a job no longer a burden but an indispensable part of his life. Whatever he does, he can always find values and pleasure in the work and achieve extraordinary results in otherwise ordinary work.THEME-RELATED WRITINGWrite a composition of no less than 150 words on the topic “My Career Choice”.

Personally I prefer to be a teacher.I have three reasons for my decision. The first reason is that the profession of teaching is in agreement with my personality. Being an outgoing, patient and understanding person, I think I am able to communicate with my students and understand their feelings easily, which constitutes an important factor in ensuring success in teaching. The second reason is that I am interested in the job. It would always give me great joy and satisfaction to see the happy faces of my students, to share my knowledge and life experience with them and to participate in their process of growing up. The third reason is related to my occupational attitude. I always believe that school teachers all over the world are respected for their profound knowledge and higher social status. I have always held my teachers in respect and I hope I would be respected as a teacher, too, in the future.I think teaching is an ideal career for me. Being a university student now, I will work hard to realize my dream.(198 words)篇三:新世纪大学英语综合教程4第二版unit1课文翻译人在自然界亚历山大·斯伯金1人类生活在大自然的王国里。
Unit 4A View of MountainsJonathan Schell1.On August 9, 1945, the day the atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, YosukeYamahata, a photographer serving in the Japanese army, was dispatched to the destroyed city、The hundred or so pictures he took the next day constitute the fullest photographic record of nuclear destruction in existence、Hiroshima, destroyed three days earlier, had largely escaped the camera’s lens in the first day after the bombing、It was therefore left to Yamahata to record, methodically -and, as it happens, with a great and simple artistry –the effects on a human population of a nuclear weapon only hours after it had been used、Some of Yamahata’s pictures show corpses charred in the peculiar way in which a nuclear fireball chars its victims、They have been burned by light – technically speaking, by the “thermal pulse” -and their bodies are often branded with the patterns of their clothes, whose colors absorb light in different degrees、One photograph shows a horse twisted under the cart it had been pulling、Another shows a heap of something that once had been a human being hanging over a ledge into a ditch、A third shows a girl who has somehow survived unwounded standing in the open mouth of a bomb shelter and smiling an unearthly smile, shocking us with the sight of ordinary life, which otherwise seems to have been left behind for good in the scenes we are witnessing、Stretching into the distance on all sides are fields of rubble dotted with fires, and, in the background, a view of mountains、We can see the mountains because the city is gone、That absence, even more than wreckage, contains the heart of the matter、The true measure of the event lies not in what remains but in all that has disappeared、2.It took a few seconds for the United States to destroy Nagasaki with the world’ssecond atomic bomb, but it took fifty years for Yamahata’s pictures of the event to make the journey back from Nagasaki to the United States、They were shown for the first time in this country in 1995, at the International Center for Photography in New York、Arriving a half-century late, they are still news、The photographs display the fate of a single city, but their meaning is universal, since, in our age of nuclear arms, what happened to Nagasaki can, in a flash, happen to any city in the world、In the photographs, Nagasaki es into its own、Nagasaki has always been in the shadow of Hiroshima, as if the human imagination had stumbled to exhaustionin the wreckage of the first ruined city without reaching even the outskirts of the second、Yet the bombing of Nagasaki is in certain respects the fitter symbol of the nuclear danger that still hangs over us、It is proof that, having once used nuclear weapons, we can use them again、It introduces the idea of a series -the series that, with tens of thousands of nuclear weapons remaining in existence, continues to threaten everyone、(The unpredictable, open-ended character of the series is suggested by the fact that the second bomb originally was to be dropped on the city of Kokura, which was spared Nagasaki’s fate only because bad weather protected it from view、) Each picture therefore seemed not so much an image of something that happened a half-century ago as a window cut into the wall of the photography center showing what soon could easily happen to New York、Wherever the exhibit might travel, moreover, the view of threatened future from these “windows” would be roughly accurate, since, although every intact city is different from every other, all cities that suffer nuclear destruction will look much the same、3.Yamahata’s pictures afford a glimpse of the end of the world、Yet in our day,when the challenge is not just to apprehend the nuclear peril but to seize a God-given opportunity to dispel it once and for all, we seem to need, in addition, some other picture to counterpoise against ruined Nagasaki -one showing not what we would lose through our failure but what we would gain by our success、What might that picture be, though? How do you show the opposite of the end of the world? Should it be Nagasaki, intact and alive, before the bomb was dropped -or perhaps the spared city of Kokura? Should it be a child, or a mother and child, or perhaps the Earth itself? None seems adequate, for how can we give a definite form to that which can assume infinite forms, namely, the lives of all human beings, now and in the future? Imagination, faced with either the end of the world or its continuation, must remain inplete、Only action can satisfy、4.Once, the arrival in the world of new generations took care of itself、Now, theycan e into existence only if, through an act of faith and collective will, we ensure their right to exist、Performing that act is the greatest of the responsibilities of the generations now alive、The gift of time is the gift of life, forever, if we know how to receive it、望远山乔纳森·谢尔1 1945年8月9日,一颗原子弹投向长崎。
