Part Ⅳ. Reading in Depth

Unit 7

今天，在地震袭击我的家乡很久以后，我仍然能历历在目地回想起我与父母从家里逃出来时所看到的情景。马路对面的房子就在我们面前倒塌，瓦砾四处乱飞，呛人的尘云遮住了太阳。惊恐的人们哭叫着四处奔跑。

如今那一场悲惨事件已过去多年，旧城的废墟上已耸立起一座新城。人们在小镇广场上建立起了一个纪念碑，以纪念那些在灾难中的死者。看来人们心中的创伤已愈合，但对此事的记忆将不会消失。

1.Today, long after the earthquake shook/ hit my hometown, I can still

recall, in crystal detail, what I saw as I ran out of my home with my parents. The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of choking dust blotted out the sun. Horror-stricken people ran in all directions, crying and screaming.

Now, many years after that tragic event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the old one. In the town square, a memorial has been built to remember those killed in the disaster. It seems the wounds in people’s hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.

Unit 4

全球化对中国年轻人具有重大影响。例如，年轻的农民正在大规模流向城市寻找工作。而对那些想出国深造或进外企工作的年轻人说，英语变得越来越重要。另外一方面，许多海外学子近年来回归祖国，因为他们看好中国经济的长期增长前景。因特网加强了中国年轻人与其他地方年轻人的联系。他们跟踪最新潮流，模仿外国时尚。他们中的一些人似乎不在乎中国的传统美德，更不要说发扬光大，这使得有人忧虑中国传统文化会不会有一天终将消失。

2.

Globalization has great implications for young Chinese. For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs. And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important. At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy. The Internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere. They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions. Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might

one day vanish.

Can you switch off from the cares of life and relax? Many people today cannot. They feel instead that they are obliged to be on the go all the time . The pace of life seems to grow ever faster. As a result, feelings of stress are common as people struggle to cope with what they see as a shortage of time. Such widespread feelings are in part caused by the large quantity of information that comes pouring in on us. “All men，”said Aristotle, “by nature desire to know.” But it is no longer possible,as it was in the past,for an individual to master the whole range of human knowledge. Instead, any individual,no matter how smart he is, can only command a fraction of the total knowledge available. It may be argued that it is futile to even attempt to do so.

You see that young man swimming out at sea? He’s trying to swim out to the beacon and back. He must be insane to have committed himself to such a thing.The current is far too strong. To be candid,I wouldn’t attempt

it.I dare say few swimmers are capable of such a feat.

I met him on the beach before he set out. I don’t mind telling you that I was taken back when he told me what he was going to do,because he didn’t look in good condition at all. Far from it.He may have had a good condition

once, but he had clearly let himself go all to pieces. However, it seems like he had no choice. He told me that he had gone broke, not a penny left ,and that old Burton would only find him a vacancy in his firm if he did the swim. That was another surprise. Burton seems such a

mild-mannered man, kind to everybody. Perhaps he thought the young man would not have the courage, that he would funk it. Then, again, perhaps Burton knew he was sending the young man to his death, but was too cold-blood to care. It only goes to show how deceptive appearances can be.

While Hitler decided to launch his invasion of Russia, he thought that nothing could stand in the way of his armies. Conquest, it seemed, was inevitable. He had surprise on his side, catching Stalin off his guard by launching his attack without a declaration of war. Hitler expected the campaign to last only a few months. In the event, it was to drag on for much longer. Like napoleon before him, he had made a fatal mistake in

failing to reckon with the severity of the Russian weather. Many German solders were to die from the cold as winter set in, bringing the German advance to a halt.
