4、How did the language of a small island off the coast of Europe become the language of the planet----more widely spoken and written than any other has ever been?

一个欧州海岸附近的小岛上的语言是怎样成为这个星球上的通用语言而比其它任何语言更广泛地用于口头和笔头的呢？英语的历史根植于幼儿最初学习的有关身份（我，主格；我，宾格；你）；领属（我的所有物，你的所有物）；身体（眼睛，鼻子，嘴）；大小（高，低）和必需品（食物，水）的词语。

这儿有一个前人阅读的书目，完全可以帮助你加深对一部名著的理解，这就是名著作者本人读过的其它名著书目。

工程硕士研究生英语基础教程 课文翻译
Unit 1 我的第一份工作 汽车清洁工 [1] 我从父母那儿获得了很强的工作道德观。他们俩都经历过大萧条时期，对不是按常规工作的人感到难以理解。我曾经告诉我妈妈，西尔堆斯特·史泰龙工作10周挣1200万美元，“那他在一年其余的日子里干什么呢?”她问。 [2] 我把父母的工作道德观带入了我在故乡马萨诸塞州安多佛镇附近的威尔明顿镇福特汽车专营店干的第一份工作。那时我16岁，学期当中我干活干到五、六点，暑假期间则每天干12个小时。我干的是汽车清洁小工的活儿，也就是清洗，抛光等事，并确保纸地板垫的位置合适。还有一项职责是在夜里将汽车轮毂盖取下来以免被偷，第二天再还回原处。这是一项很费劲的工作，因为我们有占大约7英亩地的汽车。 [3] 一天，我抱着一大捧毂盖转过一个角落，几乎与我们新任总经理撞了个满怀。我吓了一跳，结果把毂盖全掉在了地上。他当场就解雇了我。 [4] 我羞愧万分，不愿让父母知道这件事。大约有两周的时间，我每天都忙到晚上，然后我会回家说工作干得很愉快。
[5] 走投无路之下，我写了一封信给亨利·福特二世，告诉他所发生的事情。我说我们家是福特车的忠实用户，并说我长大成年后打算买一辆野马车。最后，汽车专卖店的店主给我打来了电话。“我不知道你在底特律认识谁，”他说，“但如果你还想要回你原来的工作的话，这工作就归你了。” [6] 后来在大学期间，我想在一家劳斯菜斯(罗尔斯—罗伊斯)的专营店干活，但店主说他们不缺人。即便如此，我还是开始在那儿清洗汽车。当店主注意到我时，我说我会一直干到他雇我。最后他真雇了我。 [7] 成功需要毅力。态度也很重要。我从不认为我那时比其他任何人强，但我一直相信我当时干的活别人都赶不上。 出纳员 [1] 第一次与我祖母坐在她位于曼哈顿的药店的现金出纳机后时，我l0岁。不久之后，她就让我一个人坐在那儿。很快我就知道了礼貌对待顾客以及说“谢谢”的重要性。 [2] 起初我的报酬是糖果，后来我每小时得到50美分。每天放学后我都工作，暑假、周末和假期则从上午8点干到下午7点。我父亲帮我在银行立了一个账户。看着存款数增加比我当时本可以买到的任何东西都更让我满足。 [3] 祖母是一位严厉的监工，从不给我任何特殊照顾。她像鹰一样注视着我的一举一动，不过却放手让我应付象在午餐高峰时干活这样压力很大的场面。她的信任教会了我如何对待责任。
工程硕士英语unit1完型答案及翻译
UNIT 1 CLOZE B Every year Forbes magazine prints “The Forbes Four Hundred”, a list of the richest individuals in the United States. This issue 1 interesting reading because it tells how these people made their money and, indirectly, how the country has changed over the years. The original list 14 years ago was crawling with Rockefellers, and Du Ponts, a Frick, a Whitney, Mellon or two---all great family fortunes that stretched back to the 19th century. However, there weren’t as many old-money fortunes on last year’s list---which leads to some conclusions about wealth in America. First, it’s not easy to hold down money, even for billionaires. Taxes put a big dent in family fortunes, and unless the heirs are careful and invest wisely, they can lose their millions as fast as their ancestors made them. Second, the old ways to riches aren’t as dependable as they used to be. Only 18 in the latest 400 made their fortunes from oil. Third, America is still the land of opportunity where smart young people like Bill Gates of Microsoft can end up on top of the list of the richest Americans ahead of the Rockefellers, Mellons, Gettys and Carnegies. What’s more, it’s amazing how many of these people keep their frugal habits after they’ve made it big. Among The Forbes Four Hundred, there are many such stories of self-made millionaires living modestly, avoiding publicity and working long hours even though they can pay the bills without lifting a finger. These people are still doing whatever it was that led to their success. There is a good lesson in this: Find something you enjoy doing, give it everything you’ve got, and the money will take care of itself. 1. A. makes off B. makes at C. makes for D. makes out 逃走、离开袭击、扑向导致、有助于理解、起草 2. A. when B. how C. where D. why 何时如何哪里为什么 3. A. entirely B. indicatively C. incorrectly D. indirectly 完全地、彻底地表示错误地间接地 4. A. original B. novel C. pioneering D. fresh 最初的新奇的、异常的首创的新鲜的 5. A. crawling B. crawled C. to crawl D. crawl 震惊爬行（过去式）爬行爬行 6. A. extended B. stretched C. spread D. expanded 延伸的拉伸的伸展的展开的 7. A. results from B. holds to C. leads to D. leads up 起因于坚持导致引入 8. A. hold down B. hand down C. hold up D. hold on to 抑制、保有宣布、流传下去举起、阻挡紧紧抓住 9. A. although B. unless C. despite D. otherwise 尽管除非不管否则 10.

大学英语A统考——写作(51套范文)汇编
大学英语A/统考——写作（51套范文） 1 Pollution is becoming more and more serious all over the world, and people's health is threatened. How to solve this problem remains one of the most important issues for each country. Write an essay on the topic "The Problem of Pollution". You should base your essay on the following outline. 1. 全球污染现象变得日益严重。 2. 全世界人民都非常关注这一现象。各国政府也采取了一定的措施来解决这一问题。 3. 我们应该怎么做。 I read a piece of news recently. It says that in Japan many businessmen are selling fresh air to customers, and now it is becoming increasingly popular. Why? Fresh air is getting less and less in Japan, and so is it in the U. S. A., China, India, etc. In fact, environmental pollution is a very serious problem the whole world is facing. It is largely caused by the waste products released from artificial substances, industrial production and increased consumption of goods. Besides, the use of chemical substances in agriculture also causes environmental pollution. Look at the sky, you can see that dense smoke is being released from the high and big chimneys; those dirty and poisonous substances are flowing into the rivers that we use for drinking water and millions of tons of waste products are heaping around us. Indeed, the earth is our home and we have the duty to take care of it for ourselves and for our descendants. In my opinion, we should work out concrete solutions to the problem of pollution For example, poisonous gas given off by automobiles should be controlled by equipping them with a device which can dispose of waste gas so as to prevent it from polluting air. 2 Everyone in the world needs friendship. When he is happy, his friend can share his happiness; when he is in trouble, his friend can lend him a hand. Write an essay on the topic "My Ideal Friend". You should base your essay on the following outline. 1. 你心目中理想的朋友是什么样的。 2. 现实生活中你是否有这样的朋友以及你如何获得这样一个朋友。 3. 和好朋友相处应该注意哪些。 Friendship is the most valuable to every one in the world. As far as I am concerned, friends will make my life more colorful and meaningful. However, there are a great variety of friends, with whom we have to make

Celebrating Families When I lived in Long Island, New York, my family lived all around. They were about ten to thirty minutes away from where I lived. My grandparents and great grandparents lived around the corner from each other and other family members weren’t too far behind. Today, families live all over the world. Although a lot of families still live in the same state, the majority live miles and even days apart. I believe a lot of this has to do with the economy, job opportunities, and venturing(敢于)out to do and have better things. But as far as the Family Unit is important and unfortunately there are a lot of us who don’t live near family, there are several ways in which we can communicate and bond with our family members. 1. Family Reunion. Organize a family reunion. Find someone within your family that is willing to help you plan this event. Rent a beach house, country club, or have it in your own backyard. Make favors, have food, entertainment, or whatever your budget(收支预算)can afford. 2. Emails and Technology. Today the Internet is soaring. We can send “live messages” to our folks and loved ones through the Internet. Emails are a great way to get in touch with people from all over the world. 3. Eat Meals Together. Many of us today are running on empty. We are forever looking at our

How is it going? 答案: C 解析:本题考查“询问”情景的交际用语。What are you doing意为“你在做什么?”；Ho w are you意为“你好吗?”；How is it going意为“情况如何”。根据答语，相当不错，诸事顺利，可知问话应是：迈克几年不见了，情况如何? 所以答案选C。 2. —______ will it take me to walk there? —About ten minutes. A．How far B．How long C．How much 答案：B 解析：本题考查“指路问路”的交际用语。根据答复里的信息“About ten minutes.”,我们得知应当是就时间长短发出询问。How far是对距离有多远的提问；How much是对数量有多少的提问;选项B则是对时间长短的提问，所以答案是B。 3. --- why not dine out together and go to the movies? --- ________________________________________ A. You deserve that.

A. can I help you? B. where are you? C. will you do me a favor 答案：C
