大英IIIUnit2课文翻译和练习答案大英IIIUnit 1Pre-reading ActivitiesInstructions for teachers: Pre-teach essential new vocabulary. Tell the students they're going to hear a conversation about Western traditions of courtesy toward women, but before they listen they should brainstorm what forms of traditional courtesy they know about (question 1 in the students' book). During the first listening, they should check to see if any of their ideas are mentioned; then they should listen again to find the answers to the questions marked 2 in the Students' Book.1. This is an open-ended question with no "correct" or "incorrect" answers, but other ideas mightbe opening doors for women, helping them carry heavy things, holding their chairs when they sit down, etc.2. Checking for the mention of polite gestures that they have thought of is an open-endedactivity with no "correct" or "incorrect" answers.a) Where do you imagine the incident the woman describes took place?Certainly at the entrance to a building —probably an apartment building.b) What courtesy did she expect?She expected the man to open the door for her.c) What, in the man's view, is the basis of a lot of common courtesy?The notion that women are too weak to cope with everyday reality.3. These are open-ended questions with no "correct" or "incorrect" answers.Listening Passage:Germaine: So there I was, struggling to get the door open without dropping my bags, and this guy just stood there staring at me with a look of total confusion on his face. I don't understand. I think if it'd been a woman, she would've opened the door for me. Or if I'd been a man, he would've opened the door for me. It was a simple case of one human being needing a hand from another human being, and all this guy could do was stare stupidly at me.Hugh: I don't blame him — how was he supposed to know you wouldn't bite his head off for offering help? A lot of women get mad nowadays when a guy offers to help them with something. Men just don't know how to act anymore.G: That's exactly my point! Something's gone wrong. Surely the idea of equal rights for women wasn't meant to prevent common courtesy.H: Well, but a lot of what you call common courtesy is based on the notion that women are too weak to cope with everyday reality.G:[getting angrier and angrier] Oh yeah?! Well, maybe too much of what you call everyday reality was designed without thinking of women. Why is the door so heavy? Why are the shelves in shops and libraries so high?? Why aren't babysitters provided for free00? [wildly] Why was I the one carrying all those heavy shopping bags H;Ow, don't hit me!(228 words)Text ComprehensionII. Responses to the questions are open-ended, but thegeneral idea is:1. The attitude that women should be grouped with children in getting "priority seating" onlifeboats.2. Because it is so clearly contrary to modern views of women's rights; because it is insulting towomen.3. He gives examples from recent newspapers:"The invaders gunned down the Indians, most of them women and children ...""As many as 200 civilians, most of them women and children, were killed ...""At the massacre in Ahmici 103 Muslims, including 33 women and children, were killed ..."4. He considers it appropriate, because children are both helpless and innocent.5. He sees it as attributing to women the same dependence and moral simplicity we find inchildren.6. In 1912 women had few rights and privileges, and being given special consideration in timesof emergency was a form of "compensation" for this inequality. But now that women have much greater equality, there is no justification for giving them special privileges or for treating them like children.7. It's depressing and (implied) wrong to treat women as if they were merely "egg-layers."8. Fathers and mothers sharing equally in the responsibilities of bringing up children.9. It's applicable only in a limited number of situations andtherefore fails to resolve the wholeproblem. 10. The author's vision is that everyone might drown out of stubborn idealism.Other possible endings might be:Seats on the lifeboats might go to whoever has the speed/strength to get and keep them; the women on board might accept the traditional "priority seating"; each individual might make his or her own decision about whether to yield a seat to someone else; or ... you'll see the students will come up with their own ideas!VocabularyIII.1. complement2. indispensable3. privileges4. strategy5. constraints6. entitled7. survival8. instinct(s)9. randomly10. faculties11. urgent12. depressingIV. The choice of the definitions/synonyms can vary, so the answers below are only guidelines.1. correct form: at random definition: without any plan or criteria for selection2. correct form: went down synonym: sank3. correct form: hand out synonym: distribute4. correct form: at a distance of ten miles synonym: ten miles away5. correct form: fend for themselves synonym: take care ofthemselves6. correct form: gunned down synonym: shot7. correct form: attached to synonym: fastened to8. correct form: is entitled to definition: has a right toV.These are open-ended questions with no "correct" or "incorrect" answers —anything grammatical that shows understanding of the target vocabulary is excellent. Please make sure the students understand that this exercise is an opportunity for them to practice their English as they feel is appropriate and useful for them. Their answers can be whole paragraphs, or just single sentences; and/or they can produce several different short answers to each question —it's up to them. The only requirement is that they use at least one of the vocabulary items in each sentence they write (and that the sentences make some kind of sense!).Word BuildingVI.1) breathtaking2) heartbreaking3) man-eating4) movie-going5) peace-loving6) fact-finding7) child-bearing1.breathtaking2. peace-loving3. man-eating4. fact-finding5. heartbreaking6. child-bearing7. movie-goingVocabulary Power GamesVII.

But if anyone has an imaginative reason for putting it elsewhere, that's fine too!Some of the words in the Games are not new to our students, such as steamer (2-lA, Ex.) and submarine (2-10B).

Given that feminists have been fighting for gender/sexual equality for years, it is not surprisingto find such new words as chairperson and Ms in widespread use.6. Given one more chance to go to college. I would choose to study engineering rather thanmathematics.IX.1. Five teachers being absent due to illness, the test has to be postponed.2. Humans being animals, we can't ignore our basic biological needs and instincts.3. Civilization having become so complex, we face many puzzling situations that the earlyphilosophers didn't foresee.4.

He looked across the classroom at the drinking fountain. It was very close—only ten steps away. So, Ryan asked himself, “Why do some African children have to walk ten kilometres to get water every day And why is the water so dirty that it makes them sick” Young Ryan thought, “Life is easy for me, but hard for those people. Why don’t I help?”年仅六岁的加拿大小学生瑞安难以相信老师所说的话:在欠发达的非洲国家,许多人都喝不到足够的干净的水。
他的目光掠过教室,望向对面的喷泉式饮水器,它是那么近——只有十步之遥。
因此,瑞安问自己:“为什么有些非洲儿童每天要步行十公里去取水为什么他们会因为喝了不卫生的水而生病”年幼的瑞安想道:“我的生活很舒适,但他们的生活却那么艰难,我为什么不去帮帮他们呢?”At first, his plan was to earn money to build a single well somewhere in Africa. He cleaned windows and did gardening for his family and neighbours. He soon reached his first target of $70, but when he gave the money to a charity, he was told that it actually cost $2,000 to build a well. Seventy dollars was only enough for a hand pump. Ryan understood that a hand pump wouldn’t help the children. What they needed was a well dug near their homes.起初,他的计划是赚钱在非洲挖一口井。
通过帮助家人和邻居们擦窗户、做园艺,他很快就达到了他的第一个目标——70美元,但当他把这笔钱捐给慈善机构时,他才得知挖一口井实际上需要花费2,000美元。
70美元只够买一个手压泵。
瑞安明白一个手压泵帮不了非洲的孩子们。
他们需要的是一口离家不远的井。
Two thousand dollars was a lot of money, but Ryan didn’t give up. He was determined to help other children have clean water. He started to ask for help from his classmates and neighbours and persuaded them to donate money. At the same time, a friend of Ryan’s mother helped make his story go public. After several months, Ryan had raised the $2,000, with which a well was built near a primary school in Uganda. The children at the school no longer needed to walk for hours to get water. They were grateful to him and invited him to visit.2,000美元可是一笔大数目,但是瑞安并没有放弃。
他下定决心要帮助其他孩子获得干净的水。
他开始向同学和邻居求助,说服他们捐款。
与此同时,在瑞安妈妈的一位朋友的帮助下,瑞安的事为公众所知了。
几个月后,瑞安筹集了2,000美元,在乌干达一所小学附近建造了一口井。
这所学校的孩子们再也不用走几小时的路去打水了。
他们非常感激瑞安,并邀请瑞安前来参观。
In Uganda, Ryan at last saw the finished well with his own eyes. But that was not all. He also saw hundreds of delighted students who had turned out to welcome him. They sang and danced happily. Some even offered him food and gifts. At first Ryan was nervous, but soon a great warmth filled him. He really had made a difference for these children. He broke into a joyful smile.在乌干达,瑞安终于亲眼看到了打好的井。
不仅如此,他还看到了几百名学生兴高采烈地欢迎他。
他们高兴地唱歌跳舞。
有的学生还为他送上了食物和礼物。
一开始瑞安还有点紧张,但很快他就感到一阵温暖。
他真的改变了这些孩子的生活。
他突然笑了起来。
Later, Ryan’s experience led him to set up a foundation to encourage more people to help. Many inspired people gave him their support. Ryan’s foundation continues to attract support from more and more people, so the work of building more wells can go on. Today, over 800,000 people in 16 countries across Africa have benefited from the life-changing gift of clean, safe water.后来,这段经历促使瑞安建立了一个基金会,以鼓励更多的人提供帮助。
许多深受鼓舞的人都给与瑞安支持。
瑞安的基金会不断吸引着越来越多的人给予帮助,从而使打井事业能够继续。
如今,这份能改变人一生的礼物——干净卫生的水——已经惠及了非洲16个国家的80多万人。
Now, as an adult, Ryan says that the question to ask is not “Why don’t I help?”, but “How can I help today?”. This insight grew from the determined attitude of a six-year-old boy who had the courage and perseverance to make his dream a reality.如今,瑞安已长大成人,他不再问“我为什么不去帮助他们?”,而是“如今我该如何去帮助他们?”。
这份领悟,始于一个有勇气和毅力实现梦想的六岁男孩那颗坚定不移的心。
Developing ideasThe Power of Good善行的力量“The British Schindler”: the life of Nicholas Winton“英国辛德勒”:尼古拉斯·温顿的生平It is August 1939, and a group of frightened children are boarding a train at Prague’s Wilson Station. Their heartbroken parents do not join them. Indeed, they fear they may never see their children again. But they know that their children will l ive. These are among the 669 children, most of them Jewish, that Nicholas Winton will go on to save from death at the hands of the Nazis.1939年8月,一群心惊胆战的孩子们在布拉格的威尔逊车站登上列车。

这些孩子大都是犹太人,他们是尼古拉斯·温顿即将从纳粹手里解救的669名儿童中的一部分。
