Unit 1 Personal Relationship

In-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。他紧紧地闭着眼睛,用拳头堵住嘴,想竭力忍住哭泣。

14 医疗小组此时非常担忧,因为针不会使他们的小输血者一直感到疼痛。一定是哪里出了问题。恰好这时,一名越南护士前来帮忙。看到小男孩在哭,她用越南话很快地问他原因。听了小男孩的回答后,又立即作了回答。护士一边说,一边俯身轻轻拍着小男孩的头,她的声音亲切柔和。

15 一会儿,小男孩不再哭了,他睁开眼睛,用质疑的目光看着越南护士。护士点了点头,小男孩的脸上马上露出了宽慰的神色。

16 越南护士抬起头平静地对两名美国人说: “他以为自己快死了。他误解了你们。以为你们要他献出所有的血,小女孩才能活下来。”

17 “那他为什么还愿意这么做呢?”海军护士问。

18 越南护士把这个问题向小男孩重复了一遍。小男孩简单地回答道: “她是我的朋友。”

19 他为了朋友甘愿献出自己的生命,没有比这更伟大的爱了。

我们都需要朋友

1 有要好的老朋友是件好事,但结交新朋友则更好。不论我们年龄有多大,我们都感激朋友给予我们的支持与帮助。这种帮助可能是为一件小事,也可能是为挽救我们的生命。帮助或支持的多少并不是最重要的,真正重要的是拥有好朋友。

2 我刚交了一位新朋友琼。她对于我,并不仅仅是又多了一位在街上碰到时打个招呼讲讲话的人,而是一位真正的好朋友。她会跟我一起吃午饭,会顺便到我家来喝杯茶。我有时会无缘无故感到悲伤或忧愁,这时她会听我说,使我感到有人理解我。她就是这样一位朋友。

3 这对我来说可不是一件小事。仅与老友们保持住联系,已经使我在时间和精力上勉为其难了,更不用说结交新朋友了。但是随着年龄的增长我现在已经35岁了拥有一张安全的朋友关系网变得重要了。随着老朋友的离开,这张网出现了一个个缺口。我现在需要花一些精力去结识新朋友。

4 结交朋友很像经历了可怕的分手后再去约会。你犹豫踌躇,裹足不前,因为你很难相信你又得从头来过。但当你真正做的时候,它的难度还不到你预料的一半,而得到的回报却是你原本期望的两倍。

5 例如,琼现在是我最好的朋友之一,我却差一点没能结识她。第一次相遇时我们都在市游泳池等自己五岁的儿子下游泳课。琼当时正在读一本书,那本书是我原先在读书俱乐部读过的。我想跟她说些什么,但却说不出来。我似乎已失去了说声“你好”的能力。

6 在更衣室里,我们又碰到了,当时我们的儿子都穿好了衣服准备回家。我几乎是对着她的后背说:“你觉得艾米谭的书怎么样?”她转过身来,我却像个十几岁的孩子一样脸红了。“噢,”她说,“我正在看《正骨师的女儿》,真的很喜欢这本书。自从我读过《喜福会》后,艾米一直是我最喜欢的作家。”

7 接下来的两次游泳课后,我们又互相交谈,比较我们的阅读书目,跟着我们的儿子跑出更衣室。到了第五次游泳课时,我们约好了花一天时间去城里购物。对于像我这个年纪的人来说,你不觉得那是很不寻常的吗?

8 我过去基本上不挑选朋友。多年来,我让命运替我决定朋友。一份新工作,一座新城市,一幢昂贵的公寓,让我与原本连说声“你好”都不可能的人成了朋友。然而随着年岁的增长,我对有些朋友已变得不耐烦了,觉得这种因机遇建立的朋友关系有时会经不起生活变化的考验。这种类型的朋友,在你有困难真正需要帮助时并不一定会帮助你。

9 我们和朋友在一起时能够自然不做作,那是一件很美妙的事,是一份很珍贵的礼物,不能不与其他朋友分享。结交朋友,享受友谊,其实并不需要花费那么多的时间,或那么多的努力。

课内阅读练习答案

PART 1 Preparation

1 Welcoming to Our Group!

1 Group Work

Group work is an important activity students are required to do throughout the semester. In the activity students can listen to each other and share each other’s ideas and experiences. Interpersonal relationships will develop during the process of working together. What’s more, working in small groups, say, between 3 and 5, students will have greater opportunities to improve

their listening and speaking skills than they can when the whole class works together.

In addition, group work can help practice and develop four key skills: problem-solving, decision-making, critical thinking and creative thinking.

To involve students in this activity each group should have a group leader to help the teacher achieve this goal. Students may change their groups every 5 or 6 weeks so as to be able to know more of their classmates. hey may also take turns being group leaders.

2 The Procedures of Group Discussion

In an ideal small group discussion, group members are encouraged to contribute their personal opinions or knowledge of a particular issue, support those opinions, discuss differences of opinion within the group, and eventually, report to the whole class. A small group discussion can be generally divided into the following procedures:

i Forming Groups

In the first class of small group discussion, the whole class is divided into several groups. How many groups are produced? Are the groups student-selected or teacher-selected? Are they gender-mixed or proficiency-mixed? All these will be decided according to the practical situation of the class, for example, how many students there are in the class, the purpose of the activity and so on.

ii Instructions

he instructions given at the beginning are crucial: If the students do not understand exactly what they are to do, they will be confused and a lot of time will likely be wasted.

iii Processes

The teacher’s job during the activity is to go from group to group, monitor, an d either contribute or keep out of the way—whichever is likely to be more helpful. If the teacher does decide to intervene, their contribution may take the form of: providing approval and support,

providing approval and support,

helping students who are having difficulty, and

keeping the students using the target language.

iv Ending

If the teacher has set a time limit, then this will help terminate the activity if the discussion is about to finish.

v Presentation

If the teacher implicitly leads students to some discussion of the “f indings” of the groups, then they may leave enough time for this to take place. Because this progress gives each group a chance to perceive differences and similarities in their work, and it provides motivation for further group work. As a result, this phase brings the class back together as a whole community of learners and even a very short period of whole-class discussion reminds students that everyone in the room is a member of a team of learners.

vi Feedback

A feedback session usually takes place at the end of the small group discussion. Feedback on the task may take many forms: presenting a possible solution, evaluating suggestions, or just expressing appreciation of the effort that has been invested.

Although all participants in a discussion have the responsibility to listen and remember some of the information and contributions, teachers have a special responsibility to retain virtually everything said. They must develop the ability to recall at appropriate times what has been said

earlier in order to illustrate points made later.

3 Teacher’s Primary Roles in Group Discussion

i Participant

In small group discussion, teachers need to communicate openly and empathically with the students. he teacher opens spaces for students to share and clarities unfamiliar ways of thinking. Teachers as participants improve the atmosphere in the class and offer students a chance to learn from them.

ii Facilitator

Teachers as facilitators encourage students to participate and make suggestions when students are confused. They make the discussion easier for their students, and assist them in finding their own ways to success. Teachers, to be facilitators, must first of all be real and genuine, discarding masks of superiority and omniscience.

iii Coordinator

It is the teachers that keep the discussion process flowing smoothly and efficiently. Teachers must coordinate the activities, leading students toward greater communicative ability.

iv Director

Just as the theater director plays a pivotal role in sustaining the fiction of a stage drama, so does the teacher use the classroom stage to simulate the real world.

v Consultant / Resource

Obviously, teachers in the classroom are just like a walking resource center and provide help where necessary.

vi Organizer

It’s the teacher’s responsibility to help the students to organize the group discussion and discuss with the students what they are going to talk about, make clear about what their task is, get the activity going, and then organize feedback when it is over. Teachers are responsible for ensuring that group discussion is satisfactorily organized at a practical level.

STEP ONE

Sample

H ello, everyone. I’m the leader of Group Beast. You may wonder why our group has such a strange name. Let me explai n. If the letter “a” is taken out of “beast”, what word do we have now? Yes, that’s “best”. So I believe our group will be the best of all. Now let’s take “a”, “s”, and “t” out of the word “beast”, and we have the word “be”, which has exactly the same pron unciation as “bee”, a hard-working animal. his implies that all the members in Group Beast are very diligent in their work. Finally, let’s take “s” out of “beast”. What word do the remaining letters make up? hat’s “beat”.

We’ll beat all the other groups i n the class. So if you want to be the best, if you want to be the winner, please join Group Beast.

STEP THREE

Sample

My name is Wang Ling. I am 18. I come from Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. I graduated from the Fourth Middle School. Hangzhou is a very beautiful city and its West Lake is famous all over China. I love my hometown.

I have a lot of hobbies, such as playing tennis, basketball, table tennis, and listening to music. I hope we can become good friends.

My name is Zhang Ping. I come from Harbin, Heilongjiang Province. It took me more than 30 hours to get here by train. I hope I can get used to the climate and food here soon.

I’m a bit shy, and that’s why I didn’t volunteer to be a group leader. My friends all say that I’m gentle and easy-going but a little lazy. I have many hobbies but reading is my chief hobby. My favorite writer is Charles Dickens. I’ve read almost all his works. I hope we can really be “the best”, “the winner”.

2 Developing Personal Relationships

Sample

Yes. I’m afraid it’s true. Most of us have had cell-phones and computers since we were in junior high school or even earlier. hey have become an important part in our lives. We don’t have to see each other in person and can reach anyone we want to easily. When I was a high school student, I used to keep myself in my own room, doing homework. Sometimes I did enjoy myself, listening to music, playing computer games, chatting online or sending text messages to my classmates. We seldom saw each other face to face after school because we didn’t have to. I’ve been used to the two kinds of tools that I feel at a loss when facing people personally. I know it’s very important to develop personal relationships in society. Hopefully I can learn how to do so during my college years.

No, I don’t think so. I think computers are just a kind of tool and are used to help us communicate with each other when we’re physically far apart. I’ve been using a computer for a long time and upgraded it when I was a second year student in senior high school. I have quite a few very good friends. hey were my high school classmates and we spent a lot of time together after school. Each week we spent at least one night together, going to the movies, singing at a karaoke bar or just talking at someone’s ho me. During the long holidays, we went traveling together. Now we are in different colleges or universities and still keep in touch with each other. Surely, when we’re back home, we’ll visit each other and get together o f ten. Now I’m a college student and have more opportunities to make new friends. I’m sure I’ll have more friends during the four years here.

3 Enjoying a Joke

Sample

The woman’s neighbors disliked her, so they were happy to hear that she was going to move out. They believed the neighborhood would be a better one after the woman moved out.

2 Vocabulary Review

1 A Though / Although B though C though

A Both “although” and “though” can be used as conjunctions to introdu ce a subordinate clause of concession (让步状语从句) in which you mention something which contrasts with what you are saying in the main clause.

B “Though” is sometimes used as an adverb. When used as an adverb, it is not used at the beginning of a clause. “Although” cannot be used as an adverb.

C When a clause beginning with “though” ends with a complement or adverb, you can bring the complement or adverb forward to the beginning of the clause. However, when a clause beginning with “although” ends with a complement or adverb, you cannot move the complement or adverb to the beginning of the clause.

2 A reply / answer B answer C replying

Both “answer” and “reply” can be used as nouns and verbs. With a noun object we use the verb “answer” or “reply to”. e.g. We must answer / reply to these qu estions as soon as possible.

3 A speaks B speak C talking D speak / talk

You say that someone “speaks” or “can speak” a foreign language. If someone is giving a speech, you say they are “speaking”. If two or more people are having a conversa tion, you say that they are “talking”. You do not say that they are “speaking”. If you “speak to / talk to” someone, you have a conversation with them.

4 A injured / hurt B hurt / injured C wounded / injured D wounds

You can be “wounded” or receive a “wound” from any attack in which a gun or sharp instrument such as a sword or knife is used. You can be “hurt” or “injured” or receive an “injury”, a) when any other weapon such as a heavy stick or bomb is used, b) in an accident. Both “wound” and “injure” are more serious than “hurt”. Note that “hurt” can be used as an intransitive verb but not “wound” or “injure”.

e.g. It hurts when I try to move my leg.

5 A houses B apartment, apartments

A “house” is a building for people to live in and often has more than one level. An “apartment” in American English or a “lat” in British English refers to a set of rooms within a larger building, usually on one level.

6 A aside B apart C aside / apart

Both “aside” and “apart” can be used as adverbs. “Aside” means “away or to the side”. “Apart” means “separated by a distance”. he phrase “aside from / apart from” means a) except for, b) in addition to.

7 A requests B requested C demanded D demands

Both “request” and “demand” mean “ask for sth. or ask sb. to do sth.”. “Request” is more formal and stronger than “ask (for)”. “Demand” is even stronger. If you “demand” something, you feel strongly that you have the right to get it, and will not take “no” for an answer. Both “request” and “demand” can be used as a verb or as a noun. A “request” for something is a polite demand for it.

8 A border B boundary

The word “border” refers to the dividing line between two countries or states or the land near that line. A “boundary” is a preci se line marking the outer limits of an area.

3 Roommates and Friends

STEP ONE

Sample

In addition to those listed in the book, my ideal roommate would also be: someone who does not smoke; a responsible and honest person; someone who does not snore while sleeping; the best student in my class; someone who does not stay up too late; an independent person; someone who does not interfere in my private affairs; a tolerant person; a trustworthy person, etc.

STEP TWO

Sample

No, I don’t think roommates are usually friends. Living in the same room doesn’t necessarily mean that friendships will develop. Although roommates are usually friendly to each other, not all of them are friends because friendliness is not always an indication of friendship. It’s true with classmates.

Only when people have similar interests and a common outlook on life will they become friends or close friends.

I think more often than not roommates will become friends. Obviously, roommates spend much time together and therefore will learn a lot about each other. When people get to know each other, friendship often develops. Many people could have become friends if they had met and got together often or long enough. Sharing rooms paves the way to friendship. We often hear older people say they were roommates or classmates and therefore good friends. It doesn’t mean roommates will surely become friends. They’re more likely to become friends.

4 It Made Me Feel So Good

STEP TWO

Sample

As a newcomer in this university, the first letter I’ve rec eived here is from my best friend, Dong Ming. Dong Ming and I were classmates in high school and we spent a lot of time together, studying, talking and playing around. I can safely say that not a single day was spent without our being together during our s enior high school years. But now we’re studying at two different universities far apart from each other. His letter makes me feel as if we were together again, talking. And what’s important is not the letter itself but what he said in the letter.

Dear Dong Hao,

I felt sad when we let each other last Friday and yet a little happy about all the new things and the excitement ahead of us in our new college life. It’s what we want and need. One thing is very important to both of us: to make more friends and to learn to get along with others. To do so I believe we should respect others—their point of view, their way of doing things, etc. Only in this way can we make more friends and make our campus life more interesting. What do you think? I look forward to your reply.

Best Wishes,

Dong Ming

Sometimes I feel good about myself when I’ve been able to contribute a little bit to my relationships with others. I remember what I did for Xiao Li, my next door neighbor and good friend. Last summer Xiao Li got seriously ill and was in the hospital for five weeks.

At the beginning I didn’t know what I could do for him. I went to Mom for advice. Mom thought about it for a while and said, “Well, the only thing I can tell you is to be available when he needs you—not when you want to be available.” I took Mom’s advice seriously. I called him on the phone now and then to check if he needed any help and I went to see him every day after school and did what I could for him. So when Xiao Li recovered and let the hospital I felt so

happy.

5 When Your Neighbor Is in Need of Help

STEP ONE

Sample

A young woman was walking along the streets one night when she was attacked. She screamed for help and managed to escape. A few minutes later her attacker caught her again and she continued screaming for help while the neighbors watched terrified from their windows and did nothing. T hey didn’t even call the police. T he woman died of multiple stab wounds ( 多处刺伤).

STEP TWO

Sample

1 I think there are several reasons for that. First, people were rather cowardly and selfish. When they heard someone screaming late at night, they thought that might be dangerous so they just stood back and watched the woman get killed in front of them. They preferred to protect themselves rather than get involved to risk being injured or even killed. Second, they felt that there are already institutions in cities to deal with this kind of problem. T hey didn’t think they needed to intervene because the police would do something for them. Finally, it is possible that these people were so terrified that they could not think clearly or take action to protect the woman.

2 I don’t know. Maybe I would go to the street and try to protect the woman. I think more people would come to help if they realized what was really happening. Maybe I would call the police. But I’m afraid that when the police arrived, she might already have been killed. Or maybe I would be too scared to give any help. I might simply close the window and put my ear plugs in. These are the different things I might do on such an occasion, but I believe it’s most likely that I would call the police.

3 Writing

Sample

When we need help, we should not hesitate to ask for it. There are two reasons for us to do so. First, sometimes in our lives we all may have pain and sorrow, so we all need somebody to lean on. For example, when we are angry, we need someone who is willing to listen to our complaints and to comfort us. Sometimes it is very likely that the one whom you have asked for help may need your help some day in the future. By helping each other, we become friends. The other reason is that no one can help us if we are too proud to let others know what we want. So next time if we have trouble, if we need somebody to lean on, don’t hesitate to ask for help. Likewise, when one day someone else needs our help lend them a hand or let them lean on us.

大学英语Unit 1 课文翻译

学外语 学习外语是我一生中最艰苦也是最有意义的经历之一。虽然时常遭遇挫折,但却非常有价值。 我学外语的经历始于初中的第一堂英语课。老师很慈祥耐心,时常表扬学生。由于这种积极的教学方法,我踊跃回答各种问题,从不怕答错。两年中,我的成绩一直名列前茅。 到了高中后,我渴望继续学习英语。然而,高中时的经历与以前大不相同。以前,老师对所有的学生都很耐心,而新老师则总是惩罚答错的学生。每当有谁回答错了,她就会用长教鞭指着我们,上下挥舞大喊:“错!错!错!”没有多久,我便不再渴望回答问题了。我不仅失去了回答问题的乐趣,而且根本就不想再用英语说半个字。 好在这种情况没持续多久。到了大学,我了解到所有学生必须上英语课。与高中老师不同,大学英语老师非常耐心和蔼,而且从来不带教鞭!不过情况却远不尽如人意。由于班大,每堂课能轮到我回答的问题寥寥无几。上了几周课后,我还发现许多同学的英语说得比我要好得多。我开始产生一种畏惧感。虽然原因与高中时不同,但我却又一次不敢开口了。看来我的英语水平要永远停步不前了。 直到几年后我有机会参加远程英语课程,情况才有所改善。这种课程的媒介是一台电脑、一条电话线和一个调制解调器。我很快配齐了必要的设备并跟一个朋友学会了电脑操作技术,于是我每周用5到7天在网上的虚拟课堂里学习英语。 网上学习并不比普通的课堂学习容易。它需要花许多的时间,需要学习者专心自律,以跟上课程进度。我尽力达到课程的最低要求,并按时完成作业。 我随时随地都在学习。不管去哪里,我都随身携带一本袖珍字典和笔记本,笔记本上记着我遇到的生词。我学习中出过许多错,有时是令人尴尬的错误。有时我会因挫折而哭泣,有时甚至想放弃。但我从未因别的同学英语说得比我快而感到畏惧,因为在电脑屏幕上作出回答之前,我可以根据自己的需要花时间去琢磨自己的想法。突然有一天我发现自己什么都懂了,更重要的是,我说起英语来灵活自如。尽管我还是常常出错,还有很多东西要学,但我已尝到了刻苦学习的甜头。 学习外语对我来说是非常艰辛的经历,但它又无比珍贵。它不仅使我懂得了艰苦努力的意义,而且让我了解了不同的文化,让我以一种全新的思维去看待事物。学习一门外语最令人兴奋的收获是我能与更多的人交流。与人交谈是我最喜欢的一项活动,新的语言使我能与陌生人交往,参与他们的谈话,并建立新的难以忘怀的友谊。由于我已能说英语,别人讲英语时我不再茫然不解了。我能够参与其中,并结交朋友。我能与人交流,并能够弥合我所说的语言和所处的文化与他们的语言和文化之间的鸿沟。

目录 Unit1-奔向更加光明的未来 (1) Unit2-儿时百宝箱,老大归家梦 (2) Unit3-互联网时代的大学生活 (3) Unit4-我们身边的英雄 (4) Unit1-奔向更加光明的未来 1下午好!作为校长,我非常自豪地欢迎你们来到这所大学。你们所取得的成就是你们自己多年努力的结果,也是你们的父母和老师们多年努力的结果。在这所大学里,我们承诺将使你们学有所成。 2在欢迎你们到来的这一刻,我想起自己高中毕业时的情景,还有妈妈为我和爸爸拍的合影。妈妈吩咐我们:“姿势自然点。"等一等,爸爸说,“把我递给他闹钟的情景拍下来。“在大学期间,那个闹钟每天早晨叫醒我。至今它还放在我办公室的桌子上。 3让我来告诉你们一些你们未必预料得到的事情。你们将会怀念以前的生活习惯,怀念父母曾经提醒你们要刻苦学习、取得佳绩。你们可能因为高中生活终于结束而喜极而泣,你们的父母也可能因为终于不用再给你们洗衣服而喜极而泣!但是要记住:未来是建立在过去扎实的基础上的。 4对你们而言,接下来的四年将会是无与伦比的一段时光。在这里,你们拥有丰富的资源:有来自全国各地的有趣的学生,有学识渊博又充满爱心的老师,有综合性图书馆,有完备的运动设施,还有针对不同兴趣的学生社团一一从文科社团到理科社团、到社区服务等等。你们将自由地探索、学习新科目。你们要学着习惯点灯熬油,学着结交充满魅力的人,学着去追求新的爱好。我想鼓励你们充分利用这一特殊的经历,并用你们的干劲和热情去收获这一机会所带来的丰硕成果。 5有这么多课程可供选择,你可能会不知所措。你不可能选修所有的课程,但是要尽可能体验更多的课程!大学里有很多事情可做可学,每件事情都会为你提供不同视角来审视世界。如果我只能给你们一条选课建议的话,那就是:挑战自己!不要认为你早就了解自己对什么样的领域最感兴趣。选择一些你从未接触过的领域的课程。这样,你不仅会变得更加博学,而且更有可能发现一个你未曾想到的、能成就你未来的爱好。一个绝佳的例子就是时装设计师王薇薇。她最初学的是艺术史。随着时间的推移,王薇薇把艺术史硏究和对时装的热爱结合起来,并将其转化为对设计的热情,从而使她成为全球闻名的设计师。 6 在大学里,一下子拥有这么多新鲜体驴可能不会总是令人愉快的。在你的宿舍楼里,住在你隔壁寝室的同学可能会反复播放同一首歌,令你头痛欲裂!你可能喜欢早起,而你的室友却是个夜猫子!尽管如此,你和你的室友仍然可能成为最要好的朋友。如果有些新的经历让你感觉不那么舒心,不要担心。我保证快乐的经历会多于不快的经历。而且我保证几乎所有这些经历都会给你带来宝贵的经验教训l,从而使你的生活更加丰富多彩。所以,带着热切的目光和欢乐的心情,去拥抱这些新的体验吧! 7我们相信,你们的自我发现之旅和对爱好的寻求带给你们的将不仅仅是个人的进步。我们相信,当你们成为我们的学者群体中的一员时,你们很快就会认识

新编大学英语(第二版)第一册阅读文参考译文 Unit One 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,而他们却落在了一所有传教士们办的小孤儿院内。 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,她的双腿被炸伤。 3 几小时后,医疗救援小组到了。救援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。如果不立即采取行动,显然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,因此需要相配血型的血。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相配的血型。 5 这位医生会讲一点越南语,忽视会讲一点法语,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。接着问他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(只是)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,兴又摇了摇头。

为自己而写 从孩提时代,我还住在贝尔维尔时,我的脑子里就断断续续地转着当作家的念头,但直等到我高中三年级,这—一想法才有了实现的可能。在这之前,我对所有跟英文课沾边的事都感到腻味。我觉得英文语法枯燥难懂。我痛恨那些长而乏味的段落写作,老师读着受累,我写着痛苦。 弗利格尔先生接我们的高三英文课时,我就准备着在这门最最单调乏味的课上再熬上沉闷的一年。弗利格尔先生在学生中以其说话干巴和激励学生无术而出名。据说他拘谨刻板,完全落后于时代。我看他有六七十岁了,古板之极。他戴着古板的毫无装饰的眼镜,微微卷曲的头发剪得笔齐,梳得纹丝不乱。他身穿古板的套装,白衬衣领扣外的领带打得——丝不苟。他救着古板的尖下巴,古板的直鼻梁,说起话来—·本正经,字斟句酌,彬彬有礼,活脱脱一个橱稽的老古董。 我作好准备,打算在弗利格尔先生的班上一无所获地混上—·年,不少日子过去了,还真率出所料。后半学期我们学写随笔小品文。弗利格尔先生发下一张家庭作业纸,出了不少题供我们选择。像“暑假二三事”那样傻乎乎的题目倒是一个也没有,但绝大多数—样乏味。我把作文题带回家,——直没写,直到要交作业的前一天晚上。我躺在沙发上,最终不得不面对这一讨厌的功课,便从笔记本里抽出作文题目单粗粗—看。我的目光落在“吃意大利细面条的艺术”这个题目上。… 这个题目在我脑海里唤起了一连串不同寻常的图像。贝尔维尔之夜的清晰的回忆如潮水一般涌来,当时,我们大家——起围坐在晚餐桌旁——艾伦舅舅、我母亲、查理舅舅、多丽丝、哈尔舅舅——帕特舅妈晚饭做的是意大利细面条。那时意大利细面条还是很少听说的异国食品。多丽丝和我都还从来没吃过,在座的大人也是经验不足,没有—个吃起来得心应手的。艾伦舅舅家诙谐有趣的场景全都重现在我的脑海中,我回想起来,当晚我们笑作—团,争论着该如何地把面条从盘子上送到嘴里才算合乎礼仪。 突然我就想描述那…切,描述当时那种温馨美好的气氛,但我把它写下来仅仅是想白得其乐,而不是为弗利格尔先生而写。那是我想重新捕捉并珍藏在心中的一个时刻。我想重温那个夜晚的愉快。然而,照我希望的那样去写,就会违反我在学校里学的正式作文的种种法则弗利格尔先生也肯定会打它—个不及格。没关系。等我为自己写好了之后,我可以再为弗利格尔先生写点什么别的东西。 等我写完时已是半夜时分,再没时间为弗利格尔先生写——篇循规蹈矩、像模像样的文章了。第二天上午,我别无选择,只好把我为自己而写的贝尔维尔晚餐的故事交了上去。两天后弗利格尔先生发还批改过的作文,他把别人的都发了,·就是没有我的。我正准备着遵命—放学就去弗利格尔先生那儿挨训,却看见他从桌上拿起我的作文,敲了敲桌子让大家注意听。 “好了,孩子们,”他说。“我要给你们念一篇小品文。文章的题目是:吃意大利细面条的艺术。” 于是他开始念了。是我写的!他给全班大声念我写的文章。更不可思议的是,全班同学都在听着他念,而且听得很专心。有人笑出声来,接着全班都笑了,不是轻蔑嘲弄,而是乐乎乎地开怀大笑。就连弗利格尔先生也停顿了两三次,好抑制他那丝拘谨的微笑。我尽力不流露出得意的心情,但是看到我写的文章竟然能使别人大笑,我真是心花怒放。就在十——年级,可谓是最后的时刻,我找到了一个今生想做的事。这是我整个求学生涯中最幸福的——刻。弗利格尔先生念完后说道:“瞧,孩子们,这就是小品文,懂了没有。这才是一知道吗——这才是小品文的精髓,知道了没有。祝贺你,贝克先生。”他这番话使我沉浸 在十全十美的幸福之中
