Justices of the Peace receive no payment.Their reward is in the interest inherent in the work they do,in the sense of performing a public service and exercising power,and in the prestige attached to their position.They are not expected to have any specific qualifications other than soundness of character,nor any legal training or experience,though some courses are provided which they are obliged to follow,after being appointed.They are advised on points of law by their Clerk,who is a professional lawyer,but in deciding on punishments they do what seems best to them,though they are always expected to be guided by common sense,humanity and a recognition that all courts ought,as far as is practicable,to impose similar penalties in similar circumstances.When a court sits it must have at least two justices on it,and not more than seven.Justices take turns at attending to sit on the bench at their courts.太平绅士没有获得任何付款。他们的报酬是符合其利益的内在，在他们所做的工作，在一定意义上的表演为公众提供服务，并行使权力，而在社会声望，以他们的立场。他们预料不会有什么具体的资历比其他的健全人格，也没有任何法律训练或经验，虽然有些课程是提供他们所必须遵守，之后被任命的。他们则宜法律要点，由自己的秘书，他是一位专业人士，律师，但在决定惩罚他们做什么，似乎最好对他们来说，虽然他们一直预料可遵循的共同意识，人道和承认所有法院都应当，据切实可行的情况下，施加类似的处罚，在类似的情况。当法庭坐在它必须有至少两名法官这件事时，不超过七人。大法官会议轮流在出席向坐在他们的法庭替补席上。

The American’s attitude toward authority,rules,and regulations was the despair of bureaucrats and disciplinarians.Nowhere did he differ more sharply from his English cousins than in his attitude toward rules,for where the Englishman regarded the observance of a rule as a positive pleasure,to the American a rule was at once an insult and a challenge.His schools were almost without discipline,yet they were not on the whole disorderly,and the young girls and spinsters who taught them were rarely embarrassed.This absence of discipline in the schools reflected absence of discipline in the home.Parents were known to be indulgent of their children and children were known to be disrespectful of parents,yet family life was on the whole happy,and most children grew up to be good parents and good citizens.It seemed entirely natural that during the Civil War privates should elect their officers and that the greatest of the generals should so often see his plans miscarried because he hesitated to give firm orders to his subordinates or to insist upon obedience.If Lincoln did not pardon quite so many sleeping sentinels as folklore relates,it was
characteristic that folklore should celebrate as a virtue a gesture so disruptive to all discipline.
美国对待权力，法规以及规章的态度，是对官僚和执行纪律者的绝望。起草委员会并无不同，他更尖锐，由他的英国表弟比他的态度规则，为那里的英国人认为遵守规则，作为一个积极的高兴，向美国一项规则是，一旦一种侮辱和挑战并存。他的学校，几乎没有纪律，但他们并没有对整个无序，和年轻的女孩和老处女他们学会了很少尴尬。这种缺乏纪律，在学校反映，如果没有纪律，在家庭。家长知道是放纵自己的子女和孩子们知是不敬父母，但家庭生活是对整个高兴，对大多数儿童长大成为好父母，好公民。这似乎是完全自然的内战期间列兵们应选出其主席团成员，并认为最伟大的将军们应该常常看到他的计划流产，因为他毫不犹豫地给予坚定的命令，以他的下属或坚持服从。如果林肯不原谅相当这么多睡哨兵，因为涉及民俗，它的特点民俗学应该表扬作为一种美德，一种姿态，使破坏性的所有纪律

The1950s produced a new ideal family type,the nuclear family consisting of a husband,wife,and their dependent children living in a home of their own.The defining characteristic of the nuclear family is independence.Parents or other relatives may visit or even move in temporarily,but they are expected to act like guests and not“interfere”.In times of need the nuclear family turns to professionals (doctors,police,bankers)as well as to relatives.Young people are sent to school and old people to“homes”.Typically,the husband is considered responsible for supporting the family,even if the wife works.He goes off each day to work for a corporation or some branch of government,not a family-owned enterprise.Typically, the wife,who is considered responsible for the family’s social and emotional well-being,stays home at least while the children are small.The couple—particularly the wife—has sole responsibility for their children.(Grandparents and other relatives takes over only as a favor or in emergencies.)But the children are expected to leave home and start families of their own in their twenties.What careers they pursue, where they live,and who they marry are up to them.
20世纪50年代，产生了新的理想家庭类型，核心家庭构成的一个丈夫，妻子，和他们的受供养子女生活在一个属于自己的家。决定性特征的核心家庭是独立。父母或其他亲属也可以浏览，甚至走向暂时的，但预料他们的行为像客人，而不是"干扰"。在需要的时候，核心家庭逐渐转向专业人士（医生，警察，银行家），也向亲戚。青少年是分发给各学校及旧人，以"家"。通常情况下，丈夫被认为是负责为家庭提供支援，即使妻子工程。他接着过每一天的工作，为一家公司或某些政府部门，而不是一个家族经营的企业。通常情况下，妻子，他们被认为是负责家庭的社会和情感福祉，留在家至少当孩子都是小。这对夫妇-尤其是妻子已独力承担其子女。（祖父母，外祖父母及其他亲属接管只是作为一种恩赐或在紧急情况下），但孩子们都预计在离家时，并开始家人自己在二十多岁。作什么职业，追求什么，住哪里，和谁结婚都取决于他们。

School-age children of employed mothers seem to have two advantages over children of homemakers.They tend to live in more structured homes,with clear-cut
rules giving them more household responsibilities;and they are encouraged to be more independent.Achievement of independence seems to be especially good for girls,helping them to become more competent,to achieve more in school,and to have higher self-esteem;but it may put pressure on some boys.
Findings for boys are less clear-cut and more varied by social class.For example, boys in both single-parent and two parent lower-income families seem to benefit when their mothers work;these boys achieve more in school.They are probably benefiting from the family’s higher income.Sons of middle-class working mothers, however,have done less well in school than have the sons of homemakers.However, the data for this study were collected in the1960s and1970s,when opportunities for women and options for child care were not as broad as they are today.As society adjusts to the fact that now the typical mother is a working mother,there should be fewer negative effects on boys.
Children do complain that they have too little time with their working mothers. And many mothers are concerned about the difficulties of finding competent day care and after-school care for younger children and of supervising older ones,especially when the children care for themselves part of the day.Time-related problems are not, of course,as severe for women who work part-time or have flexible hours.
学龄期儿童的受雇母亲似乎有两个好处超过孩子的家庭主妇。他们大多生活在更有条理的家园，并旗帜鲜明的规则，给予他们更多的家庭责任，以及鼓励他们更加独立。实现独立的，似乎是特别好的女孩，可以帮助他们成为更称职的，以取得更在上学，有较高的自尊，但它可能会施加压力，对一些男孩。
结果，男孩不太明确和更多样化的社会阶层。举例来说，男生在这两个单亲和两名家长较低收入的家庭，似乎受益时，他们的母亲工作;这些男孩达到更上学。他们可能受益于家庭的收入较高。儿子的中产阶层，有工作的母亲，但是，已经做了那么好成绩，比有儿女的家庭主妇。然而，据统计，这项研究被收集在20世纪60年代和70年代，当妇女的机会和选择，对于幼儿，没有广泛的，因为他们的今天。随着社会调整到一个事实：现在典型的母亲是一个工作的母亲，应该有更少的负面影响，对男生。
孩子抱怨说，他们有时间太少，跟他们的母亲。许多母亲都关心困难找到称职的日间照顾和放学后照顾年幼的儿童和监督不断更新换代，特别是当孩子照顾自己的部分日程。时间相关问题都没有，当然，由于严重的妇女兼职工作，或有灵活的工作时间。

There are at least three aspects of dying:the biological,the social,and the psychological,all of which have become increasingly controversial.
The legal definition of biological death varies from state to state,but in general, biological death is considered the cessation of bodily processes.A person may be pronounced dead when the heart stops beating for a significant period of time or when electrical activity in the brain stops.The criteria for death have become more complex with the development of medical apparatus that can prolong the basic signs of life indefinitely.People in a deep coma can be kept alive for years,even though they may have suffered irreversible brain damage and may never regain https://www.wendangku.net/doc/7a4522589.html,ter in this chapter we will discuss the issue of whether or when such life supports as respirators and feeding tubes may be withheld or removed.
The social aspect of death revolves around funeral and mourning rituals and legal arrangements for the inheritance of power and wealth.A major problem in present-day American society is a lack of widely-accepted conventions of behavior for people who know they are dying,for those around them,and for the survivors after the death of a loved one.Several conventions which do exist are rarely helpful either for dying people or for those close to them:isolating the dying in hospitals or nursing homes,refusing to discuss their condition with them,separating from them before death by visiting less often,and thus leaving them to cope with death alone.
The psychological aspect of death involves the way people feel both about their own death as it draws near and about the death of those close to them.Most people today have a great deal of trouble coming to terms with the meaning of death.We need a more positive acceptance of the reality of death as a natural and expected phase of life.
至少还有三个方面的临终：生物，社会，心理，所有这些问题，已成为日益引起争议。
法律定义的生物死亡不同，从国家对国家，但普遍而言，生物的死亡被认为是停止身体的进程。一个人可被宣告死亡时，心脏停止跳动，为维持相当长一段时期，或当电活动在大脑中站。该标准为死亡已变得更加复杂与发展中的医学仪器可以延长基本生命迹象无限期地拖延下去。人们在深昏迷状态，可以维持生命，多年来，即使他们可能已遭到不可逆转的脑损害，而且可能永远不会恢复意识。后来在这一章中我们将讨论的问题，是否或何时等生活支持，因为呼吸器和进食管的，可以不予或撤销。
社会方面的死因是围绕葬礼和追悼仪式和法律安排的继承权力和财富。一个主要问题，在当今的美国社会是一个缺乏广泛接受的公约行为的人都知道，他们正在死去，对于他们周围，并为幸存者去世后，一位亲人。几项公约，其中确实存在，是很少有用的，无论是死的人，或对于那些接近他们：孤立亡者在医院或护理之家，拒绝讨论他们的情况，与他们分开，从他们死亡前通过访问较少，从而使他们为应付死亡。
心理方面的死亡牵涉到的人都感到对自己的死亡，因为它的临近和对于死亡的那些接近他们。大多数人，今天有大量的麻烦来计算与意义的死因。我们需要一个更加积极地接受现实的死亡是一个自然和预期相的生活方式。

Most nations of the world export goods to other countries.Like-wise,most import goods from other nations.Why do countries of the world engage in international trade?
Some nations of the world have certain conditions or resources that provide them with a basis for international trade Columbia and Brazil have just the right climate for growing coffee.They export the surplus to earn foreign exchange to pay for the goods they import.
If a country has an abundance of natural resources,it is common for it to export some of these resources.Rubber from Malaysia and oil from some of the Middle East countries are examples.
If a nation is advanced in science and technology,it can produce sophisticated machinery and equipment,such as computers,jet airplanes and electric generators. Their manufactured goods are usually sold at high prices in international market.So
they enjoy favorable conditions in international trade.
In addition to trade in goods,there is another form of trade,i.e.trade in service. The former is called visible trade,and the latter,invisible trade.Transportation, insurance,financing and tourism are some of the forms of invisible trade.Invisible trade can be as important to some nations as the export of goods is to others.
大多数世界各国都出口货物到其他国家。同样地，多数进口商品来自其他国家。为什么世界各国从事国际贸易？
有些国家有一定的条件或资源，为他们提供了一个基础，以国际贸易哥伦比亚和巴西都只是适当的气氛，为越来越多的咖啡。他们出口的盈余，以赚取外汇，以支付货物，他们进口。
如果一个国家拥有大量的自然资源，这是普遍的，它以出口这些资源。橡胶来自马来西亚和石油从一些中东国家就是例子。
如果一个国家的先进科学技术，它可以生产精密机械及设备，如电脑，喷气飞机和电动发电机。他们制造的商品通常是卖高价，在国际市场上。使他们享受到了有利条件，在国际贸易。
此外，在货物贸易方面，也有另一种形式的贸易，即服务贸易。前者是所谓的有形贸易，而后者，无形贸易。运输，保险，金融业和旅游业是一些形式的无形贸易。无形贸易方面，可作为重要的，有些国家由于出口货物的，是给别人。

Ⅳ.Reading Comprehension(阅读理解)

The history of English is conventionally,if perhaps too neatly,divided into three periods usually called Old(or Anglo-Saxon)English,Middle English,and Modern English.The earliest period begins with the migration of certain Germanic tribes from the continent to Britain in the fifth century A.D.,though no records of their language survive from before the seventh century,and it continues until the end of the seventh century or a bit later.By that time Latin,Old Norse(the language of the Viking invaders),and especially the Anglo-Norman French of the dominant class after the Norman Conquest in1066had begun to have a substantial impact on the vocabulary,and the well-developed inflectional system that typifies the grammar of Old English had begun to break down.
The period of Middle English extends roughly from the twelfth century through the fifteenth.The influence of French(and Latin,often by way of French) upon the vocabulary continued throughout this period,the loss of some inflections and the reduction of others accelerated,and many changes took place within the grammatical systems of the language.A typical prose passage,especially one from the later part of the period,will not have such a foreign look to us as the prose of Old English,but is will not be mistaken for contemporary writing either.
The period of Modern English extends from the sixteenth century to our own day.The early part of this period saw the completion of a revolution in vowel distribution that had begun in late Middle English and that effectively brought the language to something resembling its present pattern.Other important early
developments include the stabilizing effect on spelling of the printing press and the beginning of the direct influence of Latin,and,to a lesser extent,Greek on the https://www.wendangku.net/doc/7a4522589.html,ter,as English came into contact with other cultures around the world and distinctive dialects of English developed in the many areas which Britain had colonized,numerous other languages made small but interesting contributions to our word-stock.
英文的历史是有规可循的，也许太规矩了，分为3个时期通常被称为旧（或盎格鲁-撒克逊人），英语，中级英语和现代英语。最早时期开始与迁移的某些日耳曼部落，从大陆到英国在五世纪广告中，虽然没有记录自己的语言生存的，由前七世纪，并一直持续到年底，七世纪或有点迟。到那时，拉丁，旧挪威（语言的海盗入侵者），尤其是盎格鲁-诺曼法语的主导阶层后，诺曼征服1066年已经开始有实质性的影响，对词汇量，并制定完善的有屈折变化的系统中就可见一斑了语法的旧英语已开始打破。
期间，中英文延伸大约从12世纪通过第十五。的影响，法国（及拉丁，往往透过法国）后，词汇量继续在这整个期间，损失屈折变化的和减少的加快，许多变化发生在语法体系的语言。一个典型的散文通道，尤其是从后来的一部分，此期间，将不会有这样的外交指望我们作为散文的古英语，但不会被误认为当代写作。
该时期的现代英语延伸，从16世纪至今。早期的一部分，这一时期完成的一场革命，在元音分配已开始在已故中英文，并有效地把语言来显露其目前的格局。其他重要的早期发展包括稳定作用拼写印刷机，并开始直接的影响，拉丁，以及在较小的程度上，对希腊的词汇。后来，随着英语接触到与其他世界各地的文化和独特的方言英语发达，在许多领域，其中英国的殖民地，许多其他语种的规模虽小但有趣的贡献，是我们文字的储存。

The Unwanted Box That Made Millions
For a long time Chester Carlson carried around his little black box----the invention over which he had worked and struggled for years.He showed it to the directors of twenty-one large American corporations,such as“General Electric, International Business Machines(IBM),Lockheed,and RCA.”
Nobody wanted it.
Nobody wanted to invest a penny in it.
It must be painful for those directors to think of Chester Carlson now.For the little black box is the heart of the multi-billion-dollar Xerox Corporation.Carlson is the inventor of“xerography”(from two Greek words meaning“dry writing”),the dry-printing process used in thousands and thousands of offices,businesses,industries, universities,shops,and government agencies around the world.
Thanks to Carlson,it now takes minutes to copy a document which,twenty years ago,would have kept a secretary busy for a whole day.And for a few pennies anyone can have a copy of anything from cooking recipes to Greek poetry.More than thirty billion such copies are made each year.
When Chester Carlson went to work in a patent office in1930,the copying methods were slow,dirty,and expensive.In his job,Carlson had to make many copies of patents for inventions.One night,after working late and painfully,he decided that
somebody had better find an easier way to do it.He went to work in the kitchen of his apartment with measuring cups and cooking pots.By1937,having developed a simple form of xerography,he applied for his first patent on the process.
Then began Carlson’s famous unsuccessful search for investors.Only in1044 did the Battelle Memorial Institute of Columbus,Ohio,agree to spend$3,000for research on Carlson’s invention.According to the agreement,Carlson was to receive 25percent of all profits;his share would rise to40percent if he could repay Battelle the$3,000within five years.This part of the agreement later brought millions of dollars to Carlson who,by borrowing from his family,had managed to repay his debt in time.
Even with Battelle’s help,it took another year to find a company willing to buy Carlson’s process.In1945,Dr.John H.Dessauer,director of research of the Haloid Company(maker of copying machines),decided to adopt and market the process, which was then named“Xerox.”Three years later,the Haloid Company had changed its own name to become the Xerox Corporation.It is now the thirty-ninth largest corporation in the US,with sales of over four billion dollars a year.
不佳票房赚得数百万
在相当长的时间切斯特卡尔森进行了周围小黑匣子----发明超过了他的工作和奋斗了多年。他表明，它的董事，2001年美国大公司，如"通用电气公司，国际商业机器公司（ibm），洛克希德，和rca"谁都不愿投资，一分一毫。
它必须是痛苦，为那些导演想切斯特卡尔森现在。对于小黑匣子是心脏多亿美元的施乐公司。卡尔森是发明人的"静电"（来自希腊字，意思是"干写作"），干式印刷过程中使用的数以千计的官员，商业界，产业界，大学，商店，以及政府机构在世界各地。
感谢卡尔森，现在需分钟复印一份文件，其中，20年前，将已保持了局长忙了一整天。以及数美分，任何人都可以有一本什么烹饪食谱，以希腊诗歌。超过三百亿复制品是每年申请一次。
当切斯特卡尔森上班去了，在美国专利商标局在1930年起，复制方法速度很慢，脏，而且费用昂贵。在他的工作，卡尔森曾使许多副本发明的专利权。一晚后，工作到很晚，并沉痛地后，他决定某人不如找一个比较容易的方式做到这一点。他到厨房里的工作，他的公寓与测量杯烹饪盆。由1937年后，制定了一个简单形式的静电，他已经申请对他的第一个专利就这一进程。
然后开始卡尔森的著名不成功的搜索，供投资者参考。仅在1044年当年巴特尔纪念研究所俄亥俄州哥伦布市，同意花费3000美元用于研究卡尔森的发明。根据该协议，卡尔森是接收有25％的利润，其份额将上升到百分之四十，如果他能够报答巴特尔3000美元以内五年。这个协议的一部分，后来带来了数百万美元，卡尔森的人，由借款由他的家人，已设法还债时间。
即使巴特尔的帮助下，历时一年，找到一家公司愿意购买卡尔森的进程。1945年，博士约翰h德绍尔，研究主任的卤素公司（制造商，复印机），决定采取与市场过程中，当时命名为"施乐"，3年后，卤素公司已改变以自己的名义成为施乐公司。它是目前第三十二第九大公司，在美国的销售额超过40亿美元。

大学英语教学与中国传统文化的渗透
龙源期刊网 https://www.wendangku.net/doc/7a4522589.html, 大学英语教学与中国传统文化的渗透 作者：向莉萍 来源：《职业时空》2014年第02期 摘要：针对大学英语教学中中国传统文化的缺失现象，分析了在大学英语教学中渗透中国传统文化的必要性，并从学习具有中国特色的中国英语、增加传统文化教学内容、实施对比教学、增加学生阅读量、拓宽知识面、开设丰富多彩的课外活动等方面提出了在英语教学中渗透中国传统文化的方法和途径，对提高大学英语教学效果，培养学生文化交流意识具有重要的实践指导价值。 关键词：大学英语教学；中国传统文化；英语学习 一、大学英语教学中中国传统文化的缺失 众所周知，语言和文化是密不可分的，语言是文化的产物，同时又是文化的载体，承担着传承文化的重任；而文化是语言存在的环境，是人类用来表达思想、传递感情的交际工具。Widdowson（1983）指出，语言学习应确立学习目的，而大部分人学习语言的目的都是为了交流，尤其是进行跨文化交流。交流本身是双向的，交流的进行意味着吸收和传播，两者不可缺少的。随着时代的发展，中国大学英语教学理念亦在悄然发生着变化，从最初的侧重于听说读写等语言技能的学习逐渐转向了对跨文化交流的重视，在大学英语教学中大量增加了目的语国家的人文、地理、风俗、习惯等方面的知识，这对促进英语学习者对英语国家文化的了解、更好地利用语言进行交流起到了积极的促进作用。但同时，也呈现出一定的认识偏颇，这种跨文化交流更多表现出了一种单向的交流，以课程设置而言，有精读、视听说、英美文学选读、英美概况、英美报刊等，所涉及的内容、练习和测试也是以英美文化为主，至于博大精深的中国文化，在大学英语的教学过程中几乎完全被忽略。而且由于受到强势文化的侵入，绝大多数学生更愿意了解和获取西方文化知识，他们对中国传统文化要么知之甚少，要么不能用恰当的英语表达中国文化，导致跨文化交际能力发展失衡，不但无法满足交流对象对中国传统文化的了解需求，而且由于表达不准确，容易造成外国人对中国文化的误解，从而产生了“中国文化失语现象”。 二、大学英语教学中渗透中国传统文化的必要性 1.有利于继承和弘扬中国优秀传统文化 中国传统文化是由华夏民族为主流的多元文化在长期的历史发展过程中沉淀而成的，包括思想观念、价值取向、道德情操、社会准则、风俗习惯、宗教信仰、文学艺术等方面。它是中华民族几千年文明的结晶，其内容博大精深，具有鲜明的民族特色和稳定的形态。随着经济的快速发展和改革开放的不断深入，全民英语学习热情日益升温，以英语为主要语种所承载的西

大学英语期末考试写作必背范文
Is It Better to Buy or Rent? The price of housing has kept increasing in recent years, which causes a big headache for people living in cities. A lot of people cannot afford to own a real estate property, so they choose to rent instead of buying an apartment. This group of people does not want to bear burden of mortgage so that they opt for a practical solution. Renting an apartment makes them have a place to stay and thus they can focus on work as well as personal life. Some other people, however, believe that an apartment owned by themselves makes them feel safe and relieved, so they are willing to sacrifice some other aspects of life to borrow money from the bank to buy an apartment. As far as I am concerned, to buy or to rent is all about it will be better to rent first and wait for the good timing when the price is going down to buy. Topic 2: On Job Hopping It seems that nowadays, very few young people are willing to stay in a job position for long, let alone for the whole life. They change jobs constantly. This results from several factors. Firstly, young people like fresh things, and it is easy for them to be fed up with old routine work. So when they stay in a position for a while,the excitement will fade out. They are quite realistic and not willing to waste time in a job they are not interested in. Thirdly, some young people are not satisfied with current salary, believing they deserve better pay. In my opinion, constant job hopping will not benefit young people in their career development. Every job has its own merits and young people can certainly learn something from it as long as they are patient and wise enough. Every job experience is valuable down the career path and young people shall be able to make the most of it. Topic 3: Online Social Network Modern people will be no stranger to online social network. Facebook, Renren and Kaixin001 are probably the most populous networks among Chinese netizen. In these networks, people interact with each other, be it a stranger or a friend, and have a lot of fun in the virtual world. This phenomenon could be a result of the fast development of the Internet and people's great interest of the virtual world. I think it is a very good new platform for people to keep in touch. But it should not be overused. Firstly, some people are addicted to it, which makes them want to get online 24 hours a day. When people spend too much time on one thing,they will naturally have not enough time for study and for work. Secondly, online social network change people's behavior of interacting with others. In virtual world, you just click the mouse and type in words instead of having a face-to-face talk. This will not benefit people's long term friendship, and even harm their interpersonal relationships in real world.
