II. Basic Listening Practice

1.Script

W: Ok. It’s your turn to pay the bill. I paid last time.

M: What? You have a selective memory. You tried to pay last turn, but your credit card failed; so I ended up paying! It’s definitely your turn.

Q: What is true according to the conversation?

2.Script

M: I’m having real trouble reviewing for this French exam. I just can’t memorize all the vocabulary.

W: Me too. I hate having to learn things by heart.I guess we just have to keep reading the texts over and over.

Q: What does the woman prefer?

3. Script

W: Oh look! There’s that guy we saw last week, playing football in the park! He looked great in his kit, remember?

M: Him? I don’t remember him. I’ve got a terrible memory for faces. I have a hard time even recording people I’ve been introduced to.

Q: According to the conversation, what is the man’s problem?

4. Script

M: Why is there a big sign on the back of your door that says “keys”?

W: It’s to remind me to take my keys when I go out because I’m always locking myself out by accident! It doesn’t help enough. Now I just forget to read the sign. Q: Why is there a sign on the back of the door?

5. Script

M: That history exam was really hard. The essay question was terrible!

W: I know, I wish I were like David. He has a photographic memory, you know. How useful that would be!

Q: What is true of David?

III. Listening In

Script

M: Tell me your secret. You’re suddenly getting excellent marks in every subject, and you used to be a bottom-of –class student just like me.

W:Simple enough. I read an article in a scientific journal that studying with remembering, based on recent research into the brain.

M: Aw, that stuff’s old hat: study at the same time every day, be sure your clothes are comfortable, and make sure you have enough light, blah-blah-blah.

W: Not so fast, wise guy. I’m talking about principles like “Mental Visualization”, creating a picture in your mind of what is to be remembered.

M: Ok, that dies sound different. Id “Association”a principle—you know, you connect what you want to remember with something you’re familiar with?

W: Right on! ‘Consolidation”is another. I review my notes right after class and consolidate—or absorb—the new material into what I’ve already learned.

M: You’re moving ahead fast with those principles. I swear this weekend I’m going to study sixteen hours a day both Saturday and Sunday.

W: Whoa, big guy. That’s not the way. Follow the principle of “Distributes Practice”.

Shorter study sessions distributes over several days are better.

M: That system is all very well for you; you’ve got a good memory. But what about me? I’ve got a memory like a sieve.

W: You’re too modest. There’s nothing wrong with your memory. But memory is like

a muscle; it needs exercise. And don’t forget it.

While the man is wondering why the woman is suddenly getting excellent marks, she says she read an article on studying and remembering. It talks about principles like “Mental Visualization”, that is, creating a picture in one’s mind of what is to be remembered. This reminds the man of the principle of “Association”, which means connecting what one wants to remember with something one is familiar with. Then the woman adds the principle of “Consolidation”, or reviewing one’s notes after class and absorbing the new material into what one has already learned. When the man

promise to study sixteen hours a day, the woman recommends the principle of “Distributed Practice”, which favors shorter study sessions distributed over several days. Finally, the woman tells the man that memory is like a muscle, and that it needs exercise.

Task 2: You forget my toast!

Script

An 80-year-old couple was having problems remembering things, so they decide to go to their doctor to see what was wrong with them. They explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. After checking the couple over, the doctor told them that they were physically okay but might need to start writing things down to help them remember. The couple thanked the doctor and left.

Later that night while watching TV, the old woman said to the old man, “Honey, will you please go to the kitchen and get me a dish of ice cream?”

Before the man left, she added, “Why don’t you write that down so you won’t forget?”

“Nonsense,” said the husband, “I can remember a dish of ice cream!”

“Well,” said the wife, “I’d like some strawberries on it. You’d better write that down because I know your memory is failing.”

“Don’t be silly,” replied the husband. “There’re only two things: a dish of ice cream and some strawberries. I can surely remember that!”

With that, he rushed into the kitchen. After about twenty minutes he returned from the kitchen and handed her a plate of bacon and eggs.

The wife took one look at the plate, glanced up at her husband, and said, “Hey, you forget the toast!”

Task3: Memory-Improving Techniques

Script

There are many techniques you can use to improve your memory. Some of them are introduced her.

First and foremost, you need to stimulate your memory all the time. To put it simply,

you should use your memory as much as possible. It is especially important to try to learn something new. If you work in an office, learn to dance; if you are a dancer, learn to deal with a computer, if you work with sales, and learn to play chess; if you are a programmer, learn to paint. These added activities stimulate the brain so that I t continues to function.

Older people need to pay attention to things they are dealing with. Don’t try to memorize everything that catches your attention; focus on what you consider important. For example, you can take any object such as a pen and concentrate on it. Think on its various characteristics: its material, its function, its color, and so on. Don’t allow any other thought to occupy your mind while you are concentrating in that pen.

Another method that can be used is to relax yourself. It is impossible to remember things if you are tense or nervous.

So, try holding your breath for ten seconds, and then release it slowly.

Association is also a powerful tool to develop your memory. For example, if you cannot remember a person’s name, you can think about a special feature of his face and then link it with his mane.

1.What’s seems to be an especially important way to stimulate one’s memory?

2.What seems to be the best way to focus your memory?

3.How can you concentrate on a pen?

4.How can you relax yourself according to the passage?

5.What is the main idea of the passage?

B: I don’t think it’s so serious. Anyway, a bad memory helps you forget your trouble.

V. Let’s Talk

Script

Student:Professor, thank you for graining me this interview. I’m Susan, a reporter from the Student Union magazine. Many students have difficultly

memorizing things. Since you‘re an outstanding psychologist, could you

give us some tips on how top improve our memory?

Professor: Well, some people have better memories than others, but that’s largely because they are better at creating mental images.

Student: If I’m not good at creating images, what can I do?

Professor: Practice helps. And the mind remembers things better if they are connected with other images. For example, I you have to pick up several

items at the grocery store, say, carrots, egg, bananas, and milk, you can

create a picture in your mind of a giant carrot, and hanging from it, a

banana.

Student: Then I could have a giant milk carton pouring milk over the carrot and banana.

Professor: Certainly. Then what would you do with the egg?

Student:Hmmm. I’d visualize an egg-shaped UFO flying across the sky. Professor:There you go. The more you apply the ideas, the easier it gets. Besides creating pictures, there’s another technique that is very useful. Student:What is it?

Professor:Establishing an association. Suppose you are looking for lost keys.

Relax, and let your mind look for all the images connected with those

keys--their feel, the sounds they make.

Student:How will that help?

Professor:You might remember the sound the keys made when you placed then in

a drawer or cold touch of the keys in your jacket were you left them. Student: Oh my gosh! I have to run. It’s time my English class. I see an image of my teacher staring at my empty seat in the classroom. Many thanks,

Professor.

Professor: Not at all, and good luck with your memory.

Discussion

SAMPLE

A:As we just heard from the interview, the technique of associating certainly important in promoting memory.

B:And according to the interview, creating images helps remember things. If your shopping list includes eggs, you might visualize an egg or an egg-shaped UFO flying across.

A:Another important factor in improving memory can be of interest. If you get interested in something, you can remember it better.

B: Yeah. And if you recognize facts into meaningful groups, you can remember them better. For instance, if you want to memorize all the names of American presidents,

it is not easy. If, however, you arrange them chronologically into three periods: those before Abraham Lincoln, those between Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt, and those after, then the task will be less difficult.

A: It is common sense that if you glance at something quickly, you tend to forget it quickly. If you stuffy it slowly, you can remember it better.

B: Another technique is intensive practice or repeating. As a saying goes, practice makes perfect. If you repeat something again and again, you will eventually learn it by heart.

A:But we should not work too hard. When we get tired, our learning efficiency declines. We need breaks so the mind can rest and absorb what has been learned.

VI. Further Listening and Speaking

Task1: The Role Memory Plays in Our Life

Script

Since memory plays a significant role in our life, scrientists are increasingly interested in research on how to improver memory, Here are some factors they believe to be important to expanding memory capacity.

To begin with, you must take special care in your daily life. Food for example, is very important. Some vitamins are essential foe your memory to work properly. They are found in bread, cereal, vegetables and fruits. Some experts say that synthesizes vitamins improve memory, but others have doubts about this, arguing that the studies have not confirmed they do work. Another essential factor is water. It helps to maintain the memory systems, especially in older persons. According to Dr. Roswell, lack of water in the body has an immediate and strong effect on memory; it can cause confusion and other thought difficulties. Sleep also plays a significant role. To be able to have a goof memory, we must allow the brain to have plenty of rest. While sleeping, the brain no longer controls the senses, and starts to revise and store the information one has receives. Lack of sleep would make one feel exhausted and would weaken one’s ability to concentrate. Also, one’ ability to store information would be affected.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

2.Why are foods important in promoting memory according to the passage?

3.To whom is water especially important in maintaining the memory system?

4.What problem can a lack of water cause?

5.Why is sleep important to memory?

Task 2: Where did the professor go?

Script

This is a true story, while happened to friends of ours in a small town in South Africa. They were a hospitable couple who often entertained their neighbors for drinks, tea or dinner. On this particular spring night, they have invited a retired professor to super. During the evening, it began to pour with rain, and the heavens really opened. Because he had walked there, they offered to put him up for the night. They pointed out that by staying overnight, he did not need to go to out in the bad weather. He agreed on the soundness of that idea, thanked his hosts profusely, and the matter seemed to be settled. But while they were washing the dishes after supper, the forgetful professor disappeared. No one could find him anywhere. Eventually, after40 minutes, the front door bell rang. There was the professor, soaked to the skin. When he was asked what on earth he has been dong in the rain, he replied that because he was going to stay there overnight, he had gone home to get his pajamas and toothbrush.

Task3: How to Remember Names

Script

You just called the TV repair shop, and the voice on the other end of the line tells you, “This is Don Smith”.

About 5 minutes later you tell your wife that “this guy”will be out to fix the TV in the morning. You can’t think of his mane although you know he mentioned it on the phone.

This happens all the time to just about any of us unless we have learned to concentrate and implant a name in our memory, right at the time we hear it. To do this, you must make a habit of repeating the name back to the person. This action will remind you to store the name in your “memory bank”each time you hear someone’s name, and

within a short time the “repeating” process can be discontinued

When you meet someone in person, use the same procedure, and in addition, visualize something different, unusual or ridiculous about hid or her appearance, position, or actions that “ties in “with his or her name. Later, you may write the descriptive information on one side of a card and the name in the other side. Look at it repeatedly, see the “picture” in your mind’s eye as you look at the name; or when you see he name, visualize the “picture” you have assigned to the name.

Getting this system to work will require changes in your thinking, and it may take several days or several weeks to become proficient.

News Report

A Dolphin Exhibition

Script

A recent art exhibition in Florida honored the animal often seen as man’s most intelligent friend, the dolphin.

The “Dolphins on Parade” exhibition in the Florida Keys featured life-sized decorates dolphin paintings made of wood and the cost of materials. The dolphins were shown at area business and along the beach. Sponsors paid U.S. $750 to cover the artists’ fee and the cost of materials.

There were more than 100 dolphin themes, including a beer-belly dolphin. They showed the work of local artists, as well as the beach atmosphere the Keys are famous for.

Probably the most unique was special because of its artist, Pandora. Pandora the dolphin painter is area dolphin, art the Dolphin Research center, in Marathon, Florida. The playful artist streaks colors across a dolphin painting holding a brush in its mouth.

The exhibition was held by the Monroe [Florida] Council of the Arts as part of a plan to make the Keys an international arts center. The paintings were to be auctioned off in March, with the money earned going to community art programs.

Task1: On the First Day

Script

Harrison: I’m Harrison. Good to meet you. So you’ve bought the books for this biology class.

Jenny:Sure, I think everyone had to before class started.

Harrison: No. Usually no one does much on the first day because it’s still add-drop. Jenny: What’s that?

Harrison: Changing from class to class to find out which one is best. Hey, where are you from?

Jenny: Poland. Have you has this teacher before? I’ve heard he is really good. Harrison: He’s good if you’re a hand-worker. He expects a lot.

Jenny: Oh, I guess that’s good. I hope I can keep up with everyone else in the class. Maybe I need your help after class.

Harrison: You’re welcome.

Professor: All right. See you guys next week.

Student: See you.

Jenny: Harrison, wait up!

Harrison: So what do you think about the professor’s lecture?

Jenny: I think half of what he said went over my head.

Harrison: That’s all right. A lot of what he said is explain in the reading/

Jenny: Hey, would you mind if I borrowed your notes tonight to look them over? Harrison: No problem. We don’t have class until Wednesday. Here you go.

Jenny: Thanks. I just want to make sure I’m prepared for the seminar. Harrison: Yeah, participation in the discussion is an important part of the education here.

Seeing that Jenny has bought the books for the biology class, Harrison says nobody does much on the first day because it’s still add-drop, which means students are changing from class to class. Jenny knows the professor is really good. But Harrison warns her that the professor is good, only if students are hand-workers, for he expects a lot.

After class, Jenny admits that half of what the professor said went over her head, and Harrison assures her that a lot of what the professor said is explained in the reading. When Jenny asks to borrow Harrison notes, he says “on problem”, for they don’t have class until Wednesday. Finally, Harrison says participation in the discussion at the

seminar is an important part of the education there.

Task 2: Money for College

Script

Robert is a university student. He likes to have fun. But having fun was expensive, so he was rapidly running out of money. There was nothing to do to try to call his mother for help.

“Hi, Mom. I certainly miss you and Dad. I…uh…got a big surprise this week in my physics course. We have to buy two new textbooks. I’m going to need $100.”

“I understand,” said his mother, “I’ll send you the money right away. You left your calculus book here when you were home two weeks ago. Shall I mail that at the same time?”

“Oh, yeah. Thanks,” Robert said.

Robert’s mother made up a parcel with the calculus book and two checks, and mailed it to Robert that very day. When she returned from the post office, her husband was waiting for her.

“Well, how much did you give the boy this time?” asked Dad.

“I send two checks: one for $100 and the other for $1, 100,” answered Mom.“You’re outing your mind,”yelled Dad, “That’s $1,100. He’ll just spend that in a couple of weeks. He’s never going to learn the value of money that way.”

“Don’t worry, honey,” Mom said, “I taped the $100 check to the cover of his book, but I put the $1,000 one between the pages in Charper13!”

Task3: How to Get Straight A’s

Script

It is interesting to note how straight A students achieve academic excellence. Here, according to education experts and students themselves are the secrets of super-achievers.

First, they know how to set priorities. Top students allow no intrusions on study time. Once the books are open or the computer is turned on, phone calls go unanswered, TV shows unwatched, snacks ignored. Study is business, and business comes before recreation.

Also, good students can study anywhere and everywhere. Claudia Hill, an Arizona State University business professor recalls a cross-country runner who worked out every day. Hill persuaded him to use his spare time to memorize biology term. Then

he posted a list of biology terms on the mirror in the bathroom. He learned a few terms every day while brushing his teeth. Eventually, he scored high on the final examination.

Moreover, top students schedule their time well. Study times are strictly a matter of personal preference. Some work late at night when the house is quiet. Others awake early. Still others study as soon as they come home from school when the work is fresh in their minds. All agreed, however, on the need for consistency. A student says, “Whatever I was doing, I maintained a certain period of time every day for studying.”Another important characteristic of super-achievers is that they know hoe to read, According to a book entitled Getting Straight A’s, the secret of good reading is to be “an active reader-one who continually asks questions that lead to a full understanding of the author’s message”.

6.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about super—achievers starting to

study?

7.What did the cross-country runner do to score high on the exam?

8.What is the good thing all top students agree on?

9.What does the speaker mean by “an active reader”?

MODEL 1 Y ou’re just going to have study hard

Nora: Only our first day back at school, and already I feel like I’ve learned a lot. Chris: Only our first day back at school, and I already feel like I’m up to my ears in homework.

Nora: You’re going to have to hit the books if you want to keep your grades up. Chris: Tell me about it! I already have two reports, two books reports, a composition, an oral report, and a research project—all due before midterms.

Nora: We could work together. Maybe some of my organized study habit would rub off on you.

Chris: Better yet, maybe you could do my homework for me.

Nora: Forget it! That would be cheating.

Chris: All right, all right. I have yet to write a term paper. Can you recommend any articles and books? You’d better find me the exact pages where I can find what

I want.

Nora: You could borrow ideas from references, but if you quote without giving the

sources, you’re plagiarizing.

Chris: The quiz next week will be a headache. If you don’t help me, I’ll have to prepare some study sheets and hide them in my hand when I take the test. Nora: Oh, no! If you’re caught, the professor will definitely give you an F. Probably, you will have to repeat the year.

Chris: All right, I’ll take your advice. The library is going to be my new home, and in the dorm I’ll be burning the midnight oil.

Now Y our Turn

SAMPLE DIALOG

A: We’re going to have a test, and I also have a term paper to finish. But I haven’t done a thing. I’m really worried now.

B: You’re going to have to have to hit the books if you want to get good grades.

A: But this course is so difficult that I already don’t understand it at all.

B: We could work together. Maybe some of my organized study habit can help you. A: Better yet, maybe you could write a term paper for me.

B: Forget it! That would be cheating.

A:All right, all right. I have yet to write it myself. Maybe I can download some articles from the Internet and piece them together.

B: You could borrow ideas from those articles, but if you quote without giving the sources, you’re plagiarizing.

A:Also, the test next week will be a headache. If you don’t help me, I’ll have to prepare a cheat-sheet and hide it in my hand during the test.

B: Oh, no! If you’re caught, the professor will definitely give you an F.

A: I’ll try to be careful.

B: But if the professor catches you, you’ll have to repeat the year. You’re just going to have to study hard.

A: Ok, I’ll take your advice. The library’s going to be my new home, and in the dorm I’ll be burning the midnight oil.

MODEL2 Which class do you prefer?

Script

Chris:First period is math with Mr. Woods. I don’t know how am I going to stay awake?

Nora: I like Mr. Wood. He’s interesting.

Chris: He’s boring! He could put the entire basketball team to sleep—during the championship game! Who do you have for economics?

Nora: Mrs. Jenkins. She’s smart. Students really learn a lot from her.

Chris: She’s tough! You have to work hard in her class, or you’ll probably fail. Nora: No pain, no gain.

Chris: Nonsense, You could have learned even more with Mr. Sharp. But not many students opt for his class.

Nora: What’s wrong with him?

Chris: Often, the highest grade he gives on a term paper is C+, and he usually fails half of the students.

Nora: No wonder he’s got the nickname Mr. Shark. Well, how about PE? What are you doing this semester?

Chris: That’s the worst part. In PE, we’re learning t’ai chi. I’m bored to death. Nora: Ha-ha! Not to rub salt into the wound, but our class is playing your favorite sport: basketball.

Chris: Oh…that figures! This is going to be a terrible semester.

Nora: This is going to be a great semester!

Now Y our Turn

SAMPLE DIALOG

A: The history class is really boring. How am I going to stay awake?

B:I like the history teacher. She’s knowledgeable. She told us a lot of interesting historical events in class.

A: Bur I find her boring! She could put the entire basketball team to sleep—during the championship game! Which class do you find dull?

B: I hate the economics course. The teacher always talks above my head. So I’ve lost interest in the course.

A: Bur economic is my favorite. The professor is smart. Most students really learn a lot from him.

B:But he’s tough! He expects a lot. You have to work hard in his class, or you’ll probably fail.

A: No pain, no gain.

B: Actually not many students opt for his class.

A: What’s wrong with him?

B: Often the highest grade he gives on a term paper is B-. Last seme4stwe he failed more than a third of the students and I was one of them.

A: Oh, that’s too bad.

B: Well, how do you find your English teacher? I don’t think much of her, either.

A: I find her kind, always willing to answer my questions; she always gives me high marks.

B:You’re rubbing salt into my wound. She failed me last semester.

MODEL3 Publish or perish

Script

Chris: Tell us, Professor Grant, What are your primary duties as a professor?

Professor Grant: Well, I do a lot of research and writing. It’s rough being an associate professor. It’s publish or perish.

Chris: So you spent a lot of time in your office?

Professor Grant:Yes, but I also have to prepare class motes, give lectures, hold office hours. Teaching is an important part of being a professor. Chris: With all those responsibilities, you must make a lot of money. Professor Grant: I wish. Actually, I spend a lot of tome applying foe grants to fund my research. Then I can offer assistantships and scholarships to

the worthy graduate.

Chris: I see why they call you “the boss”. But being a professor sounds pretty competitive.

Professor Grant: Actually, I think you were in one of my classes…

Chris: Um….I think you’re mistaken, Professor Grant!

Professor Grant: No, I remember very clearly now! You owe me an essay!

Chris: Sorry, I have too much work to do for the Student Union Newsletter, and I have to work two jobs to pay for school.

Professor Grant: So you get an F in this course.

Now Your Turn

SAMPLE DIALOG

A: Professor Smith, I’m from the Student Union newspaper. Many students want to know a western professor’s main duties and compare them with a Chinese professor’s duties.

B: Well, I do a lot of research and writing. It’s tough to be a professor.

A: Chinese professor are also facing increasing pressure, as they are required to do more research than before. Professor Smith, do you spend al lot of time on teaching?

B: Yes, I have to prepare class notes, give lectures, host seminar, and hold office

hours. In fact, teaching is an important part of being a professor, though some professors believe that research is more important than teaching.

A: With all those responsibilities, you must make a lot of money, I suppose.

B: I wish. Salary is a sensitive topic in the west. Let me say something about research funds. Actually I spend a lot of time applying for grants to fund my research.

A: How are you going to use the grants?

B:With that money, I can offer assistantships and scholarship to graduate students who can help with my research project.

A: Now I see why they call you “boss”. But being a professor sounds pretty competitive.

B: That’s true. A lot of young teachers want to be promoted to a professorship.

A: What you said has given us a fairly clear picture of a western professor’s primary responsibilities. Thank you very much for your time.

B:You’re welcome

V. Let’s Talk

Script

Hi, everybody. My topic today is “Problems with Our Educational System”.

There are a lot of things in our educational system that I don’t agree with. It seems that educators just want to give standardized tests, which focus only on academic performance but neglect students’ abilities and interests in other areas. I think there’re a lot of people who are very intelligent, but haven’t had the opportunities they could’ve had, had they been educated in a broader-minded educational systems. I feel that a lot of courses that students are focused to take in high school are too academic, and, as a result, many kids lost their interest in learning.

Educators have failed to recognize various kinds of intelligence. They often exert a lot of pressure on students to be as well-rounded as possible. I think being well-rounded isn’t really possible. And as a consequence some students who are believed to be intelligent can’t get into good colleges if they, for example, haven’t scored well on the math section, even if they ate brilliant writers.

Another thing that disturbs me is that the so-called “weak students”are separated from the rest of the school. Some kids are kept in a separate class id their grades are lower then others. And they’ve very aware of their social position, you know. I think it causes them to act in a way that is not really positive. They’re just acting in a way that they are expected to act. Often their grades go from bad to worse. And that’s pretty sad to me. I think that many of the kids in those classed are intelligent, but never actually realize their potential because of the way they are treated very early on in

It‘s small, with a population of only 320. 3. No. He looks like a Scottish noble, soft-spoken and wealthy. 4.

He stole more than eight million pounds over eight years and poured about five million pounds into the village. 6. Most of the stolen money was supposed to be used to pay spies and conduct secret activities against the Irish Republican Army. 7. He used the money to buy an estate, a beautiful home, and a dozen noble titles. But most of all, he sunk his dishonest gains into the village, buying multiple cottages, a pub and a run-down hotel and turning them into very good-looking places. 8. His bank deposits were so large that they were noticed by the bank‘s management. The bank then notified the police, who discovered that the criminal was one of their own. 9.

新视野大学英语(第三版)第二册读写教程课后答案 新视野大学英语(第三版)第二册读写教程课后答案Unit 1 Language in mission Text A An impressive English lesson Ex.1 Understanding the text 1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules. 2、The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account; however, what the student could do was only one single utterance :“whoa!” without any any specific comment. 3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language. 4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with. 5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs. 6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before. 7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary. 8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, tho ugh in two different situations and with two different feelings.

新视野Book3 汉译英翻译 Unit 1 Translate the following paragraph into English 如今,很多年轻人不再选择“稳定”的工作,他们更愿意自主创业,依靠自己的智慧和奋斗去实现自我价值。青年创业(young entrepreneurship)是未来国家经济活力的来源,创业者的成功不但会创造财富、增加就业机会、改善大家的生活,从长远来看,对于国家更是一件好事,创业者正式让中国经济升级换代的力量。尤其是在当前,国家鼓励大众创业、万众创新,在政策上给予中小企业支持,这更加激发了年轻人的创业热情。 Nowadays, many young people no longer choose“stable” jobs. Instead, they prefer to start their own businesses and realize their self-value through their own wisdom and efforts. Young entrepreneurship is the source of national economic vitality in the future. The success of entrepreneurs not only creates fortune, increases job opportunities, improves people’s life, but it is also good for the country in the long term. Entrepreneurs are a driving force in upgrading China’s economy. Especially for the time being, our country is encouraging people to start their own businesses and make innovations and giving policy support for medium and small businesses. This further arouses young people’s enthusiasm to start their own businesses. Unit 2 Translate the following paragraph into English 实现中华民族伟大复兴(rejuvenation)是近代以来中国人民最伟大的梦想,我称之为“中国梦”,其基本内涵是实现国家富强、民族振兴、人民幸福。中国梦,是让每一个积极进取的中国人形成世世代代的信念:只要经过不懈的奋斗便能获得更好的生活。人们必须通过自己的勤奋、勇气、创意和决心迈向繁荣,而不是依赖于社会和他人的援助。每个中国人都是中国梦的参与者和创造者。中国梦是民族的梦,也是每个中国人的梦。 Realizing the great national rejuvenation, which we define as the Chinese Dream, has been the greatest Chinese expectation since modern times. It basically means achieving prosperity for the country, renewal of the nation and happiness for the people, thus ensuring that every enterprising Chinese carries, generation after generation, the firm conviction that a better life is accomplished through persistent effort. People should achieve their prosperity through diligence, courage, creativity and determination instead of aid from society or other people. Each individual is a participant and a designer in the cause of realizing the Chinese Dream, for it is a dream not only for the entire nation but also for every Chinese. Unit 3 Translate the following paragraph into English 水墨画(ink and wash painting)是中国独具特色的传统艺术形式之一,是中国国画的代表。它大约始于唐代,兴盛于宋代和元代,距今已有一千多年的历史,其间经历了不断的发展、提高和完善。水墨画的创作工具和材料是具有浓厚中国特色的毛笔、宣纸和墨,其作品特点也与此紧密相关。例如,水和墨相互调和,使作品具有干湿浓淡的层次。水墨和宣纸的交融渗透也使画作善于表现丰富的意向,从而达到独特的审美效果。水墨画在中国绘画史上具有很高的地位,甚至被认为是衡量东方绘画艺术水平的标准。 Ink and wash painting, one of the unique traditional art forms of China, is representative of Chinese painting. It began around the time of the Tang Dynasty, and then prospered in the Song and Yuan dynasties. With a history of over one thousand years, it has experienced constant development, improvement and perfection. The tools and materials used to create ink and wash painting, i.e. brushes, rice paper, and ink, are characteristic of Chinese culture and closely related to the features of the paintings. For example, the mixing of water and ink creates different shades of dryness, wetness, thickness and thinness. The integration and infiltration of water, ink, and rice paper enables such paintings to convey rich images, and hence to achieve unique aesthetic effects.
