21世纪大学英语读写教程第二册Reading aloud

U1

“Very hesitantly I selected a tube of blue paint , and with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean on the snow-white field . At that moment I heard the sound of a motorcar in the drive and threw down my brush in a panic . I was even more alarmed when I saw who stepped from the car: the wife of Sir John Lavery , the celebrated painter who lived nearby.

“?Painting!?she declared,?What fun. But what are you waiting for? Let me have the brush---the big one.? She plunged into th e paints and before I knew it , she had swept several fierce stokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely terrified canvas. Anyone could see it could not hit back. I hesitated no more. I seized the largest brush and fell upon my wretched victim with wild f ury. I have never felt any fear of a canvas since.”

This belief in hard work is the first of three main factors contributing to Asian students? outstanding performance. It springs from Asians? common heritage of Confucianism, the philosophy of the 5th-century-BC Chinese sage whose teachings have had a profound influence on Chinese societh. One of Confucius?s primary teachings is that through effort, people can perfect themselves.

Confucianism provides another important ingredient in the Asians? success as well. In Confucian philosophy, the family plays a central role—an orientation that leads people to work for the honor of the family, not just for themselves. One can never repay one?s parents, and there?s a sense of obligation or even guilt that is as strong a force among Asians as Protestant philosophy is among those in the West.

U3

The first cultural translator I ever met was an installation engineer, George by name, who worked for an American company where I was the director of international operations. The company had just started a joint venture with a Japanese firm, and the American management needed someone to train the Japanese employees in its unique technology. George?s solid understanding of the equipment, its installation and use made him the best-qualified employee for the job, so everyone was happy when George accepted a two-year contract for temporary transfer to Japan.

From the start, George was well accepted by all the Japanese employees. Japanese managers often distrust anyone sent to represent US owners, but George was so naturally nonassertive that no one could see him as a threat to their careers. So they felt comfortable asking his advice on a

wide range of matters, including the odd behavior of their partners across the ocean. Engineers throughout the company appreciated George?s expertise and his friendly and capable help, and they got into the habit of turning to him whenever they had a problem—any problem. And the secretaries in the office were eager to help this nice bachelor learn Japanese.

U4

Failure is never pleasant. It hurts adults and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask, “Why did I fail?” Resist the natural impulse to blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help,don?t be shy about inquring.

Success, which encourages repetition of old behavior, is not nearly as good as a teacher as failure. You can learn from a disastrous party how to give a good one, from an ill-chosen first house what to look for in a second. Even a failure that seems total can prompt fresh thinking, a change of direction.

U5

Balancing work and school was difficult. "I was staying up late studying, and going to work early every morning. I was having a h ard time concentrating in class, and a hard time on the job because I was so tired," she says. But she ended up with two A's in her first semester anyway.

Priscilla decided to pursue an archaeology major, and in the su mmer of 1992, she got her first opportunity to really test out her i nterest in the subject. The archaeological field school of Washingto n State University was sponsoring a summer research project at a s ite alongside the Snake River in Washington. Priscilla threw herself into the work, and the project supervisors were impressed. At the end of the summer, one of the professors offered her a job. "He sa id,…We just got a contract for a project in North Dakota. We want to hire you if you're willing to take a semester off from school.'" The offer was a diversion from Priscilla's pursuit of her BA. "But by then I no longer doubted that I would ultimately finish school, so I felt comfortable grabbing this opportunity," she says.

U6

He has bee n proclaimed “the finest mind alive”, “the greatest genius of the late 20th century”, and “Einstein?s heir”, Known to millions , far and

wide, for his book A Brief History of Time, Stephen Hawking is a star scientist in more ways than one. His gift for revealing the mysteries of the universe in a style that non-scientists can enjoy made Hawking an instant celebrity and his book a bestseller in both Britain and America. It has earned a place in the Guinness Book of Records for spending 184 weeks in The Sunda y Times “top-ten”list, and has sold more than five million copies worldwide—virtually unheard-of success for a science book.

How did all this happen? How has a man who is almost completely paralysed and unable to speak except through a computer overcome these incredible obstackes and achieved far more than most people ever dream of?

U7

But thinking is far different from laziness. Thinking is one of the most productive activities a human being can undertake. Every beautiful and useful thing we have created exists because somebody took the time and effort to think of it.

And thinking does require time and effort. It's a common misconception that if a person is "gifted" or "bright" or "talented," wonderful ideas will flash spontaneously into his mind. Unfortunately, the intellect doesn't work this way. Even Einstein had to study and think

for months before he could formulate his theory of relativity. Those of us who are less intelligent find it a struggle to conceive even a moderately good idea, let alone a brilliant one.

U8

When you're eating among other people, you don't raise your voice; it's just one example of the unwritten rules we live by. When you consider it, you recognize that those rules probably govern our lives on a more absolute basis than the ones you could find if you looked in the law books. The customs that govern us are what make a civilization. There would be chaos without them, and yet it's not at all clear why —even in our disintegrating society — we obey them.

How many times have you stopped at a red light late at night? You can see in all directions; there's no one else around — no headlights, no police cruiser idling behind you. You're tired and in a hurry. But you wait for the light to change. Is it for safety's sake? No; you can see that there would be no accident if you drove on. Is it to avoid getting arrested? No; you are alone; there's no one to catch you. Still, you sit and wait.

Unit5 Text A 约翰·肯尼迪就职演说 1961年1月20日，星期五 今天我们并不是在庆祝政党的胜利，而是在庆祝自由的胜利；它象征着一个结束，也象征着一个开始；它意味着一种更新，也意味着一种变革。因为我已在你们和上帝面前，宣读了庄重的誓言，与我们的先辈在175年前所拟定的相同。 现在的世界已大不相同了，因为人类的手中掌握着既能消灭人间的各种贫困，又能毁灭所有人类生命的力量。但我们先辈为之奋斗的相同的革命信念，在世界各地仍然有着争论。这个信念就是：人权并非来自国家的慷慨施舍，而是来自上帝的恩赐。 今天，我们不敢忘记我们是第一次革命的继承者。让我们的朋友和敌人都能够听见我此时此地的讲话：(革命的)火炬已经传给了新一代的美国人——他们出生在本世纪，经历过战争的洗礼和严峻而艰苦的和平的考验，为我国悠久的传统感到自豪——他们不愿目睹或容许我国一向坚持，并且今天仍在国内和国际做出承诺的人权渐趋毁灭。 让每个国家都知道，不论是祝福我们的，还是诅咒我们的，为确保自由的存在和胜利，我们将不惜付出任何代价，承受任何沉重负担，应付任何艰难险阻，支持任何朋友，反对任何敌人。 这就是我们的保证——而且还不止于此。 对于那些和我们有着共同文化和精神渊源的昔日盟邦，我们保证会像对待挚友般忠诚。只要团结起来，在许多需要合作的事业中几乎没有什么事是办不到的。我们如果分歧对立，就会一事无成，因为我们在这种情况下，就不敢应付强有力的挑战。 对于那些我们欢迎其加人到自由国家行列中来的新国家，我们将恪守诺言：决不让一种更为严酷的暴政来取代消失的殖民统治，，我们并不总是指望他们会支持我们的观点，但我们始终希望他们能坚决捍卫自身的自由，而且铭记，在历史上，凡是愚蠢地骑在虎背上谋求权力的人，都是以葬身虎口而告终的。 对那些遍布半个地球的身居茅舍和乡村、为摆脱赤贫桎梏而挣扎的人们，我们保证尽最大努力帮助他们自救，不管需要花多长时间——之所以这样做，并不是因为共产党可能在这样做，也不是因为我们需要他们的选票，而是因为这样做是 正确的，，自由社会如果不能帮助众多的穷人，也就无法保护少数的富人。 最后，对于那些与我们敌对的国家，我们提出的不是保证，而是要求：在科学释放出可怕的破坏力量，把全人类卷入到预谋的或意外的自我毁灭的深渊之前，让我们双方重新开始寻求和平。我们不敢以示弱来引诱他们。因为只有当我们毋庸置疑地拥有足够的军备，我们才能毫无疑问地确信永远不会使用这些军备。 所有这些在最初的100天内不会完成，在最初的1000天内也不会完成，在本届政府仔期内也不会完成，甚至我们在这个星球上的有生之年都不会完成。但是让我们开始行动。同胞们，我们的事业最终成败与否，与其说掌握在我的手中，不如说掌握在你们的手中。自从合众国建立以来，每一代美国人都受到过召唤去证明他们对国家的忠诚。曾经响应召唤而献身的美国青年的坟墓遍及全球。 现在，号角已再次吹响——不是召唤我们拿起武器，尽管我们需要武器，不是召唤我们去作战，虽然我们严阵以待——而是召唤我们为迎接黎明而肩负起漫长斗争的重任，年复——年，“从希望中获得欢乐，在苦难中保持坚韧”，去反对人类共同的敌人：专制、贫困、疾病和战争本身。我们能不能结成一个包括东西南北各方的全球大联盟，以反抗这些敌人，确保人类有更为富足的生活呢?你们愿意加入这场历史性的斗争吗? 在悠久的世界历史中，只有少数几代人被赋·子这种使命，能够在面临最大的危机时捍卫自由，、我们在这场奋斗中所奉献的精力、信念和献身精神，将照亮我们的国家和所有

21世纪大学英语教程(第四册)Unit1课文原文

21世纪大学英语读写教程（第四册）Unit1课文原文 《Who Is Great?》 Michal Ryan As a young boy, Albert Einstein did so poorly in school that teachers thought he was slow. The young Napoleon Bonaparte was just one of hundreds of artillery lieutenants in the French Army. And the teenage George Washington, with little formal education, was being trained not as a soldier but as a land surveyor. Despite their unspectacular beginnings, each would go on to carve a place for himself in history. What was it that enabled them to become great? Were they born with something special? Or did their greatness have more to do with timing, devotion and, perhaps, an uncompromising personality? For decades, scientists have been asking such questions. And, in the past few years, they have found evidence to help explain why some people rise above, while others—similarly talented, perhaps—are left behind. Their findings could have implications for us all. Who is great? Defining who is great depends on how one measures success. But there are some criteria. "Someone who has made a lasting contribution to human civilization is great," said Dean Keith Simonton, a professor of psychology at the University of California at Davis and author of the 1994 book Greatness: Who Makes History and Why. But he added a word of caution: "Sometimes great people don't make it into the history books. A lot of women achieved great things or were influential but went unrecognized." In writing his book, Simonton combined historical knowledge about great figures with recent findings in genetics, psychiatry and the social sciences. The great figures he focused on include men and women who have won Nobel Prizes, led great nations or won wars, composed symphonies that have endured for centuries, or revolutionized science, philosophy, politics or the arts. Though he doesn't have a formula to define how or why certain people rise above (too many factors are involved), he has come up with a few common characteristics. A "never surrender" attitude. If great achievers share anything, said Simonton, it is an unrelenting drive to succeed. "There's a tendency to think that they are endowed with something super-normal," he explained. "But what comes out of the research is that there are great people who have no amazing intellectual processes. It's a difference in degree. Greatness is built upon tremendous amounts of study, practice and devotion." He cited Winston Churchill, Britain's prime minister during World War II, as an example of a risk-taker who would never give up. Thrust into office when his country's morale was at its lowest, Churchill rose brilliantly to lead the British people. In a speech following the Allied evacuation at Dunkirk in 1940, he inspired the nation when he said, "We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end...We shall never surrender."
