Unit 1 Personal RelationshipIn-Class Reading The Gift of Life以生命相赠1 炸弹落在了这个小村庄里。
在可怕的越南战争期间,谁也不知道这些炸弹要轰炸什么目标,而它们却落在了一所由传教士办的小孤儿院内。
2 传教士和一两个孩子已经丧生,还有几个孩子受了伤,其中有一个小女孩,8岁左右,双腿被炸伤了。
3 几小时后,医疗救援小组到了。
医疗小组由一名年轻的美国海军医生和一名同样年轻的海军护士组成。
他们很快发现有个小女孩伤势严重。
显然,如果不立即采取行动,她就会因失血过多和休克而死亡。
4 他们明白必须给小女孩输血,但是他们的医药用品很有限,没有血浆,因此需要匹配的血型。
快速的血型测定显示两名美国人的血型都不合适。
而几个没有受伤的孤儿却有匹配的血型。
5 医生会讲一点越南语,护士会讲一点法语,但只有中学的法语水平。
孩子们不会说英语,只会说一点法语。
医生和护士用少得可怜的一点共同语言,结合大量的手势,努力向这些受惊吓的孩子们解释说,除非他们能输一些血给自己的小伙伴,否则她将必死无疑。
然后他们问孩子们是否有人愿意献血来救小女孩。
6 对医生和护士的请求,孩子们瞪大眼睛,一声不吭。
此时小病人生命垂危。
然而,只有这些受惊吓的孩子中有人自愿献血,他们才能够得到血。
过了好一会儿,一只小手慢慢地举了起来,然后垂了下去,一会儿又举了起来。
7 “噢,谢谢,”护士用法语说。
“你叫什么名字?”8 “兴,”小男孩回答道。
9 兴很快被抱到一张床上,手臂用酒精消毒后,针就扎了进去。
在整个过程中,兴僵直地躺着,没有出声。
10 过了一会儿,他发出了一声长长的抽泣,但立即用那只可以活动的手捂住了自己的脸。
11 “兴,疼吗?”医生问。
12 兴默默地摇了摇头,但一会儿忍不住又抽泣起来,并又一次试图掩饰自己的哭声。
医生又问是不是插在手臂上的针弄疼了他,兴还是摇了摇头。
13 但现在,偶尔的抽泣变成了持续无声的哭泣。

Then a carpulled in and I heard a voice asking what the matter was. When he heard my story, the driver offeredme a lift. Thank to his kindness, I arrived just in time. And so here I am today. ( 157 words)。
Text comprehensionI. C (This statement goes to extremes. Though the author stresses the notion that we shouldfind our true selves and be faithful to them in college, she does not mean we should ignore others in pursuit of our true selves.)II. 1. F; 2. T; 3. F; 4. T; 5. FIII. 1. Refer to Paragraphs 1 and 2. She felt “first-gradish” on her arrival at the campus. The “first-gradish” feeling refers basically to naivety and anxiety, so she attempted to behave in a perfect way with the hope that no one would notice she was a freshman.2. Refer to Paragraph3. She chose to sit in the front row and to the side. This was becausethe freshman manual suggested sitting near the front to show that one is an intelligent and enthusiastic student, but as she was not confident enough to sit in the professor’s direct line of vision, she chose a side seat in the front row.3. Refer to Paragraph 6. She felt as if her life had punged into total failure and the doomof life had come.4. Refer to Paragraph 9. The football player got up, hands held high above his head in avictory clap, which is an expression of fun. At this moment, Evelyn realized that she had been too serious and on the contrary her slip could be a moment of fun for other people and herself alike. Everyone may have done something dumb, but they have all survived after all.5. Refer to Paragraphs 13 and 14. She understood that one could live his college life as anexperiment. She should not be afraid of making mistakes because it is only through trial and error that one can find his real self and finding is real self is the ultimate purpose of a college education. The college allows one to make massive mistakes. And even after graduation, she was still making mistakes of which she was no longer afraid.IV. 1. I planned to keep silent and act in such a way that nobody would notice that I was onlya newcomer in college.2. For three days, I had not been to the cafeteria due to my feeling of humiliation and shame. Instead, I stayed alone in my room and ate junk food of various kinds from a vending machine which was in just the right place to aid me in avoiding others.3. It didn’t matter whether or not you were widely accepted or admired; you did not have to behave to the liking of everybody else.Structural analysis of the textUnlike a piece of expository writing, which usually expresses the main idea in a thesis statement, in a piece of narrative writing, the point is shown through dialogues, actions or events.The three incidents that are treated expansively in this essay are related to one another by their implicit messages—the author made mistakes and her reaction toward the mistakes. It was in this process that the author achieved significant insight into life and herself.Rhetorical features of the text“I knew everyone would stare. Forget it. I settled into my chair and tried to assume the scientific pose of a biology major, bending slightly forward, tensing my arms in preparation for furious note-taking, and cursing under my breath”(Paragraph 5). “Keeping myself upright and getting out of the mess was not going to be easy, and this flailing of my feet was doing no good. Just as I decided to try another maneuver, my food tray tipped and I lost my balance” (Paragraph 6). The italicized parts in the selections offer vivid pictures of what she did or how she looked in the embarrassing situations.VocabularyI. Explain words1.

新编大学英语综合教程1-unit5Unit 5 Animal WorldIn-Class Reading Do Animals Have a Culture?动物拥有文化吗?1 只有人类有文化呢,还是某些动物也同样有文化,这是社会科学家们最近才提出来的问题。
说到文化,我们指的是某一类人群共有的生活方式。
文化包涵了我们形成的信念和看法。
正是人们的行为模式促使他们生活在一起,也正是人们的行为模式把不同的群体区分开来。
人类失去了蛮力、爪子、长牙及其他自卫功能,然而文化为我们弥补了这些缺失。
人类使用工具,相互合作,并借助语言进行交流沟通。
但人类行为的这些方方面面,或称之为“文化”的东西,在某些动物的生活中也同样存在。
3 我们过去一直认为会不会使用工具是人和其他动物的分界线。
然而,最近我们发现情况并非如此。
黑猩猩不但能够使用工具,事实上还能自己制造工具。
与仅仅捡起身边的东西加以利用相比,这已经向前迈出了一大步。
例如,有人看到黑猩猩把树叶扯掉,将树枝伸进白蚁巢穴。
当白蚁啃咬树枝时,黑猩猩就把树枝抽回,然后把枝条底端的白蚁吃掉——就像我们使用餐叉一样。
4 我们曾一度认为,尽管人类可以学习文化,但却不可能教会动物学文化。
或者,即使动物能够学习,它们也不会像人类那样互相传授。
然而,这一观点也同样是不正确的。
日本京都大学猴子研究中心对一群日本猴进行过研究。
科学家们给猴子白薯,想把它们引到海岛的岸边。
一天,为了去掉白薯上面的沙子,一只年轻的母猴开始用水来洗白薯。
这一做法马上传遍了整个猴群。
这是学来的行为,不是向人类学的,而是从其他猴子那里学到的。
而凡是没有跟这一猴群接触过的其他所有的猴子几乎都不会用水洗去沙子。
这样,动物间就存在了“文化差异”。
5 我们已经把使用和发明工具从区分动物和人类行为的方法中排除出去了, 同样也把学习和互相传授行为排除在外了。
但我们仍抓住语言这最后一个特点不放。
然而,即便是语言的使用也无法把人类文化和动物文化区分开来。

She had a great deal of influence on us. Although she was not for sparing the stick and spoiling the child, we were never really frightened of her punishment. She knew that my brother was sensitive to criticism, and she was especially lenient with him because she was afraid of hurting his feelings.All of the children were very fond of her. She was famous for her chocolate cake and known for her generosity(慷慨)in cutting large pieces. My parents didn't allow our eating so many sweets. They said they didn't want to spend all their money on our teeth, but they never had the heart to blame our grandmother. She wouldn't listen to them anyway. She would never believe that--what tasted good was bad for the teeth. 1 must say that I now agree with my parents on that point. But you can hardly blame me for not taking their advice at that time.We used to talk our problems with her. We could always depend on her to help us or to cheer us up. She had a great deal of faith in us and used to tell us that we should have more confidence in ourselves. She also used to say that we should be interested in getting ahead in the world, but, that at the same time we should be thankful for what we had.1.What was the grandmother like?______.A. She tended to spoil the childrenB. She liked punishing the children with firm handC. She was strict but kind-heartedD. She was knowledgeable but obstinate (固执的)2. Why didn't the parents allow the children to eat so many sweets?__________.A. Because they thought it bad for children's teethB. Because they didn't want to waste money on itC. Because they didn't believe the grandmotherD. Because they believed it was the way to spoil children3. What probably happened to the writer when he said, "I now agree with my parents on that point."__________A. He didn't believe in his grandmother nowB. His paints persuaded him to do soC. He probably had tooth problemD. He regretted having blamed his parents4. In the first paragraph, the word "lenient " has the same meaning asA. spoilingB. seriousC. gentleD. strict5. Which is not mentioned in the passage? __A. The children depended on their grandmotherB. The grandmother took good care of the childrenC. The grandmother always punished the children with stickD. The grandmother was generous to the children(2)It's never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need to know the art of apologizing. Look back with honesty and think how often you've judged roughly, said unkind things, pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend. They count the occasions when you indicated clearly and truly that you were sorry. A bit frightening, isn't it? Frightening because some deep wisdom in us knows that when even a small wrong has been committed (犯), some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed; and it stays out of balance until fault is owned and regret expressed.I remember a doctor friend, Clarence Lieb, telling me about a man who came to him with a variety of signs :headaches, insomnia( 失眠)and stomach trouble. No physical cause could be found. Finally Dr. Lieb said to the man,"Unless you tell me what's worrying you, I can't help you."After some hesitation, the man confessed that, as executor(执行者) of his father's will, he had been cheating his brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance(遗产). Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking forgiveness and enclosing a cheque as the first step in reopening their good relation. He then went with him to the mail box in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man burst into tears. “Thank you,” he said, “I think I'm cured.” And he was.A heartfelt apology can not only heal a damaged relationship but also make it stronger. If you can think of someone who deserves an apology from you, someone you have wronged, or judged too roughly, or just neglected, do something about it right now.1. When we have done something wrong, we shouldA. look honest and think over the fault carefullyB. escape from being disturbedC. admit the fault with regretD. forgive ourselves2. What will happen if we have done something wrong? __A. Our logic(逻辑)of thinking will be disturbedB. We shall lose a friendC. We shall go to the psychologistD. Our moral balance will be disturbed3. What was the cause of the patient's disease?A. Headaches and insomniaB. A variety of unknown reasonsC. Disturbance of conscienceD. Some physical weakness4. What had the patient done to his brother?A. He had sent his brother abroadB. He had cheated his brother out of his inheritanceC. He had given just a little share of the inheritance to his brotherD. He had gone abroad leaving his brother nothing5. The patient was cured byA. writing his brother a letterB. mailing a letter in the corridorC. enclosing a cheque in the letterD. asking his brother to forgive him(3)In 1849 a servant girl wrote home to her brother from Port Adelaide, South Australia: "I have accepted a situation at $ 20 a year, so you can tell the servants in your neighborhood not to stay in England for such wages as from $ 4 to $ 8 a year, but come here. "Letters such as these, which were passed on from kitchen to kitchen in English homes, were the best recruiting(招募)agents for the colonies(殖民地)which were then in need of young women to serve the pioneers who were trying to create a new life for themselves in their chosen countries. Other girls read about the much better future overseas in newspapers and magazines, which also published advertisements, while some servants, like the writer of the letter quoted above, were induced(引诱)to set forth after attending a public meeting on emigration (移民).Now that Australia is not much more than a quick phone call and a day's flight away, it is difficult to imagine all the discomforts and dangers which young servant girls, and other emigrants, had to face on the long sea voyage a century or so ago. The journey took three to four months at least, according to the state of the sea and the winds, as clippers(快速帆船)continued to be used for reasons of economy well into the age of steam. The emigrants lived together in crowded and often ill-ventilated(通风不良的)quarters below deck. Whenever there was a violent storm, they were often battened(封闭) down below, with all their fears, their sickness and the smells, until danger had passed. Some of the women were usually pregnant (怀孕的), so that the passenger lists became longer by the time the ships reached port, though these increases were frequently balanced by a number of deaths among the adult emigrants and their young children.I. The most effective way to persuade servant girls to work in Australia wasA. passing on letters from emigrants who worked in AustraliaB. setting up recruiting agentsC. publishing advertisements in newspaper and magazinesD. holding a public meeting on emigration2. The writer of the letter went to work in Australia becauseA. she was persuaded by a personal letter from a servant girt who had actually gonethereB. she was influenced by advertisements in newspapers and magazinesC. she was induced by a public meeting on emigrationD. she was recommended by a recruiting agent3. The journey to Australia was made by clipper ship becauseA. this was cheaperB. this was quickerC. this was saferD. this was more comfortable4. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE? __A. The journey to Australia was most likely made by sailing shipB. The journey to Australia took no more than four monthsC. The journey to Australia was dangerous and discomfortD. Passenger would be caught in a violent storm on the sea voyage5. It is implied but not stated in the passage thatA. emigrants had to face all the discomforts and dangers on the voyageB. births and deaths often occurred during the voyagesC. passengers had to stay in quarters during a stormD. the time the journey took was determined by the state of the sea and the winds(4)During the American War of Independence, women were involved in the active rioting in three ways. First, as members of a branch of the Continental Army, referred to as "Women of the Army", women staffed field hospitals and acted as military support in such roles as water carriers. In an emergency, women water carriers, who had plenty of opportunity to observe the firing of guns, could replace a wounded comrade. The second way that women were involved in active fighting was as regular members who wore men's uniforms(制服)and fought side by side with the male. Theoretically, women were not supposed to be recruited(招募) into the Continental Army, but if a woman was a good soldier, no one made an issue(争论)of sex at a time when the army was so short of soldiers that boys not yet in their teens were also being recruited in violation(违反)of rules. Third, women were occasional fighters who served in local militia(民兵)companies or committees of safety formed to protect the town district.1. what is the main idea expressed in the passage?A. Women played an important role in military hospitals during the RevolutionaryWarB. The Continental Army was successful in teaching women to fire guns.C. The services of women on committees of safety were essential in winning the warD. Women were active in fighting during the Revolutionary War2. Women sometimes fired guns in battle becauseA. they had observed the action and therefore could substitute themselves for disabledmenB. local militia companies had trained them very carefully for emergency fightingC. they had a better safety record than men for using gunsD. it was against the law for young boys to fire guns3. What is probably the main reason that women were permitted to fight in the war?A. Only women were successful as water carriersB. They had to substitute for their husbands who died in the warC. Continental women were particularly healthy and strongD. The army desperately needed fighters4. Women were involved in fighting the war for American independence in all of thefollowing ways EXCEPT asA. members of committees of safetyB. staff of the field hospitalsC. makers of battle uniformsD. troops in the regular army5. This passage would most probably be assigned reading for a course in what subject?A. NursingB. Women MovementC. HistoryD. Labor StudiesⅤ.Translation1.这份关于现代化对于人性影响的报告很值得一读。

Reading Comprehension(1)Byrne turned the key in the heavy lock and put it calmly in his pocket. He did so much more from caution(谨慎)than from any kind of fear. This was the only entrance to the house, and he did not mean to be caught unawares by any danger from outside. He wondered if TomCorbin had been as careful the night before. Though Tom would be away for at least three days. Byrne had a strange feeling of his nearness. In the stillness he seemed to hear Tom' s voice. He looked round quickly, for the tricks of hearing are the most realistic of all. But there were only the women. It seemed impossible that Tom should not be there.The girl, carrying a smoky oil lamp, led Byrne upstairs. He threw open one after another the doors along the passage. At this, the girl stopped and raised the lamp in each doorway, staring at him meanwhile. Satisfied he was the only guest, Byrne came to the last door, which the girl threw open herself.“You sleep here, sir,” she said, giving him the lamp. “Your friend slept here too. It's our most comfortable bed. "Her lips moved in reply, but he did not catch the words. Her eyes never for a moment left his face. He stepped in, and as he turned to close the door she was still standing theremotionless. He paused, and in the silence he thought he again heard the sound of Tom's voice. The sound terrified him now, not only because it seemed much nearer but also because he imagined a note of warning in it.He shut the door in the girl's face then, leaving her in the dark. He opened it again almost at once. She had disappeared without a sound. He closed and bolted the door. A deep mistrust suddenly took possession of him. Why had that girl stared at him so? Did she wish to remember him dearly? It was as if she knew that she was seeing his face for the last time.1. Why did Byrne take the key with him? .A. To let Tom in, when he rammedB. Because he was afraid of what was going to happenC. To stop any enemy being let into the houseD. Because he did not want the women to escape2.

Then ideas and feelings come out to form the mind picture known as dreams.Dreams may be influenced by different things that are present during sleep. If a person is cold, he may dream that he is out in a snowstorm. Worries or anger may also influence the content of a dream.Some people think that they seldom dream, and other people are quite sure that they do not dream at all. Studies of human sleep have shown, though, that everyone dreams every night. If a person thinks he does not dream, it is because he does not remember dreaming when he wakes up. Usually, a person may dream three to seven times for a total of one to two hours of dreaming every night.Perhaps you are wondering just howresearch workers can be sure that a person is dreaming. The story behind the discovery is an interesting one.During their research studies of human sleep, Dr Kleitmmn and his assistants noticed that a person sleeping made sudden eye movements. These eye movements occurred at least several times a night. When a sleeper was awakened during these periods of eye movement, it was learned that he had been dreaming. In most cases, the dreamer could then recall his dream. The person's eye movements, scientists believe, were caused by the movements of his eyes as he followed the events of the dream.Not only does everyone dream, but it seems that we all need to dream. One theory is that dreaming gives us a chance to escape from the rules of our real world. In dreams we can see our wishes come true. We can be rich, powerful, successful.Another theory is that in our dream we are trying to work out problems that havetroubled us during waking moments.Whatever the explanation, we all do dream, and dreaming is necessary and important to us.1.

For instance, Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took the time to ask me what happened. When I explained that my baseball had flew through Mrs. Holt's basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to confess to her. After all, I should have been playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my knees shook under me as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money. I also learned from Steve that personal property is a sacred(神圣的)thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom,I wanted to keep it. But Steve explained that it might be importantto someone else in spite of the fact that it had little value. He reminded me of how much I'd hate to lose to someone else the small dog my father carved( 雕刻) from a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and still remembered the smell of her perfume (香水) as she patted me on my shoulder. Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve I killed an old brown bird in the yard with a BB gun. Excited with my accuracy ( 准确), I screamed to Steve to come to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?”I didn't know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is if it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most “important lesson my brother taught me.1. What is the main subject of the passage?A.

After four years of below-normal rainfall (in some cases only I0 percent of the annual average), vast areas of France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Britain andIreland are dry and barren( 不毛的). Water is so low in the canals of northern France that waterway traffic is forbidden except on weekends. Oyster(牡蛎) growers in Britain report a 30 percent drop in production became of the loss of fresh water in local rivers necessary for oyster growing. In southeastern England, the rolling green hills of Kent have turned so brown that officials have been weighing plans to pipe in water from Wales. In Portugal, farmers in the southern Alentejo region have held prayer meetings for rain -- so far, in vain.Government in those countries are taking severe measures. In hard-hit areas of France washing cars and watering lawns were strictly forbidden. In Britain. water will soon be metered, like gas and elec tricity. “The English have always taken water for granted.”says Graham Warren, a spokesman d Britain's National Rivers Authority. “Now they' re putting a price on .”Even a sudden end to thedrought would not end the misery (痛苦)in some areas. It will take several years of unusually heavy winter rain, the experts say, .just to bring existing water' reserves(储备)up to their normal levels.1.
