They cause people to lose their homes, their possessions, or even their lives. In a word, theycan be downrightunbelievable and courage. Earthquakes and hurricanes may cause the worst things to happen, but they also bring out the best in people.In 2005, one of the worst hurricanes in recent memory formed over the Gulf of Mexico and moved over the southeastern United States. Known as Hurricane Katrina, it was devastating for many major cities, especially New Orleans, and the people who lived there. While some people managed to (34)and find safety outside of the city, many did not. Unfortunately, they were leftwhen the floods filled the streets and drowned their houses.It is hard to use too many words to describe Katrina. It was one of the worst storms in history. It caused the deaths of more than a thousand people. It displaced tens ofthousands more. Still, there was an enormous of people who wanted tohelp. These people certainly deserve our and respect.In the days following the storm, details of what happened were all over the news. There werehundreds of from all over the world in New Orleans to cover the story.Between the journalists telling this story to the world and the thousands of ordinary people who wanted to help those affected by the storm, the lives of New Orleans's residents were made a little more (40)Your answer Correct answer(31) massive massive(32) tragic tragic(33) bravery bravery(34) evacuate evacuate(35) homeless homeless(36) superlative superlative(37) turnout turnout(38) admiration admiration(39) correspondents correspondents(40) humane humanePart III: Reading ComprehensionQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.Have you ever thought about travelling abroad? Do you yearn to see what the world has to offer? Areyou tired of simply hearing about other cultures and want to finally experience some of them? Why simplytravel the world, though, when you can actively make a difference?Too many people visit countries to see the famous landmarks, taste the local food, and experience life away from their familiar hometowns. However, you can also give something back to the communities inwhich you travel. Volunteer vacations are becoming increasingly popular, and many people are discovering that they have much more rewarding and satisfying travel experiences when they volunteer their time and energy to worthwhile causes.Many volunteer vacations are easy to organize and simple to execute. Others are more complicated. There are opportunities for every budget, schedule, and amount of effort you're willing to dedicate. It's really up to you. You can teach a language in Africa. You can help build a school in Southeast Asia or a home for a low-income family close to your home. You can help national park employees conserve endangered plants and animals. You can go hiking and help preserve and maintain trail systems. You can volunteer at an orphanage and help keep children safe. The options are limitless and literally encompass anything you can possibly imagine.We often hear about the heroic deeds that some people do to help others when they are most in need, but why wait until a major disaster to give back? Volunteering your time, skills, knowledge, and energy to meaningful projects in the areas of education, health, sanitation, and construction is just as valuable.Ironically, many countries that are popular vacation destinations are also most in need of aid and assistance. Prominent world citizens such as Bill Clinton and Kofi Annan repeatedly extol the virtues of volunteerism and claim that true heroes are those people who give what they can with no expectation of anything in return.Next time you plan a vacation, won't you consider a volunteer vacation? You might make all the difference in the world.41. Where is a likely place that this passage might appear?A. On a marketing brochure for a volunteer vacation organizer.B. In a newspaper editorial about the need for emergency volunteers.C. On a travel brochure for a popular vacation destination.D. In a magazine article about volunteerism among prominent world citizens.42. Which of the following would make the best title for this passage?A. The Benefits of International TravelB. Heroic Deeds of Bill Clinton and Kofi AnnanC. Volunteer Vacations: Great Opportunities for Meaningful WorkD. Volunteers: The True Heroes of the Planet43. Which paragraph presents several possible scenarios for volunteer work?A. Paragraph 2.B. Paragraph 3.C. Paragraph 4.D. Paragraph 5.44. The type of writing in this passage would best be described as _____.A. educationalB. entertainingC. scientificD. persuasive45. Which of the following sentences is the writer's critical message?A. Volunteer vacations are becoming increasingly popular.B. Many volunteer vacations are easy to organize and simple to execute.C.

Then, within one month, I got a(31)promotion at work and my girlfriend and I decided to get married. Suddenly, my life was in (32)transition with big changes ahead!The new position at work was wonderful. I was no longer relegated to the (33)sidelines. My boss was starting to notice all of my hard work! After a (34)lengthy speech about my new responsibilities, my boss took me to my new private office. Fantastic! I didn't have to sit in the (35)rear of the office anymore, behind the copy machine. I loved my job already.My girlfriend also suggested that we move out of the city and buy a house in the suburbs. We had been city (36)dwellers for so long that it was a difficult decision for us to make. On top of that, I was worried about taking out a (37)mortgage for the house. My new job paid better, but our resources were still (38)finite. Finding a down payment would be tough.In the end, we decided to go for it. There's no time like the present, right? With the new job, I could honestly say that I had a (39)budding career, so it felt right to take the plunge and buy a house. After all these changes, we'd be ready to just relax and enjoy life. So, we took on a honeymoon to the (40)coastal California.Part III: Reading ComprehensionIt would be a fairly accurate statement to say that, when I was in elementary school and high school, I was a painfully shy child. I usually kept to myself, had only a few friends, and rarely spoke in class. My parents were always very busy, so they never pushed me to become more involved in activities and meet more people. I was perfectly happy by myself. I spent much of my time with my nose buried in a book. The only times that I ventured away from the comforts of my bedroom were when I explored the seemingly endless aisles of stocked bookshelves at my favourite bookstore.In retrospect, it was no surprise that I read with such an incredible appetite. Reading was my escape. My favourite books were adventure and travel stories—stories that brought the readers to exotic, unexplored, or dangerous places. These were places I longed to go, and they were adventures I yearned to experience, but I knew it was all just a fantasy. I had a hard time working up the nerve to talk to a fellow classmate, I knew there was no way I could travel around the world and live out oneof these adventures. Therefore, I read. I read every book I could find that promised adventure, excitement, or escape. By the time I graduated from high school, I had probably read more books than our school had in its library. It was quite an achievement, but no one knew about it except for me. I told no one because I had no one to tell. My only friend was Justin, and that relationship only existed because we had been next-doorneighbors for fifteen years.Like most of my classmates, I applied to college and eventually worked up the courage to go. It wasn't easy. I had lived at home with my parents my whole life, and I rarely ever thought about leaving. However, it had finally become inevitable; I couldn't stay with them forever. I attended a local college and moved out to live in a dormitory with a roommate. It would be an understatement to say that I was nervous. I was terrified.My roommate's name was Greg, and the first few weeks of school were very awkward. He kept trying to start conversations and be friendly. I was able to answer his questions, of course, but I found it difficult to keep the conversation going. I just wasn't used to it—I had no practice at this sort of thing. Then one day I returned from an afternoon class and found him reading a Jack London book. Suddenly, I found that I had a hundred questions to ask Greg. Did he like Jack London? Which was his favourite book? Did he read a lot? What other authors did he like? The list was endless.To my surprise, Greg was also in love with adventure and travel books. One of his dreams was to travel around the world and follow in the footsteps of some of history's greatest explorers. There must have been magic at work that day. It was as if my shyness suddenly disappeared. Greg and I talked for hours about our favourite books and dreams of travel. I also found it easier to talk to other people at school and make friends since that day. I felt like the world opened up to me. So many things suddenly seemed possible. In fact, Greg and I are planning a great adventure for this summer! It may have taken me a while, but I finally found a way to break out of my shell and start enjoying life.41. Which of the following is a rite of passage that helped the writer to become less shy?A. Attending high school.B. Reading many books.C. Attending college.D. Planning a great adventure.42.

Once again, Greg was left out of the decision.Part II: Banked ClozeWhen I was a child, my best friend Joseph and I would play a game called "Super Secret Spy." Sometimes I would play the spy and Joseph would play the (31)villain, and sometimes we would reverse the roles. Make-believe games like this were my favourite, and I remember that many summer days were (32)largely spent outside, playing Super Secret Spy.Every time we played, the story had to be different. We played so much that, needless to say, some of the stories got quite (33)bizarre. Eventually, Super Secret Spy was like a science fiction movie; the stories took place on other planets and one of us was an alien. Sometimes, we would wear old Halloween masks so the (34)resemblance to an alien was remarkable!I remember one day in particular. Joseph was the alien and he captured me on a (35)barren, empty planet (my backyard). He threw me in "alien prison" (behind a big tree) and (36)giggled with mischievous delight. At first, I felt all alone and (37)helpless. Then I pulled myself together and remembered that I was the Super Secret Spy!I thought of my escape plan. When Alien Joseph came to check on me in the alien prison, I (38)whirled around quickly and grabbed his alien laser gun. In a (39)blaze of laser fire, I ran past my captor and escaped the alien prison! I was free! Super Secret Spy had won again!Just then, Joseph and I both realized that it was late afternoon, the sun was setting, and (40)twilight was upon us. We were both hungry, so we were incredibly happy when my mother called us inside for dinner. Even SuperSecret Spies and aliens need to eat!Part III: Reading ComprehensionWhen we're young, we can't wait to grow up and get on with life. When we're adults, we long for the carefree days of our youth when we could play all day without worry. This is one of the greatest ironies of life. Indeed, "the grass is always greener on the other side." It is a harsh truth that humans always want what they can't have. It's our nature.That's why it's good practice to instill in our children a healthy respect for childhood. Too many adults seem to be in a hurry for children to grow up. We always ask them, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" We repeatedly tell them, "You can do/have that when you're older." We continually encourage them, "When you grow up, the world will be yours and you can make your dreams come true." It's no wonder, then, that children seem to be in such a rush to grow up, get older, and demand everything that we tell them is coming to them.Children should be free to play the day away. We should encourage them to use their imagination, create entire worlds in a cardboard box, and explore their backyard as if they were exploring an undiscovered country. You cannot put a price on an active and fertile imagination, nor can you overestimate the value of an inquisitive mind, a respect for the environment, and an urge to question why everything is as it is. These traits are all developed and nurtured when we're children and, without them, we would not be able to function as adults in the modern world.Research has shown that children are happiest and healthiest when they have the freedom to act like children. This may seem obvious, but it's often forgotten as parents push their children to study harder, practice longer, and essentially act like adults. It's important to remember that children are constantly learning.Therefore, they are also learning as they're playing. Exploring nature fosters a respect for the environment that may lead children to become biologists or naturalists. Creating with paint and crayons instills a love of art that might help develop young artists or musicians. Playing make-believe stimulates the imagination in a way that writers, filmmakers, and actors find most useful. Building with blocks helps the mind understand how things are constructed and might lead to an interest in engineering.It's true that play helps develop skills that will be used later in life. However, this should not be the sole purpose of play. Children should play because they're children. It's how they stay happy, healthy, and young. Why should we push them to be something they're not?41. Which of the following sentences is the main idea of this passage?A. It is a harsh truth that humans always want what they can't have.B. Too many adults seem to be in a hurry for children to grow up.C. Children should be free to play the day away.D. It's true that play helps develop skills that will be used later in life.42. Which of the following would the writer of this passage likely NOT agree with?A. Adults should understand that children learn while they play.B. It is important for children to play and act young.C. Many games help children appreciate potential careers.D. Children should concentrate on their schoolwork above everything else.43. "The grass is always greener on the other side" means _____.A. other situations always seem better than the ones we are inB. people always lack confidence in themselvesC. people prefer to live in a less barren landD. people always want their children to grow up fast44.

The President's new policy is, so to speak, beneficial for international trade.Part II: Banked ClozeLet me pose a(n) (31)hypothetical situation for you. Imagine that you are very rich and can do almost anything you want. Now imagine that you love art and want to support struggling artists. You decide to (32)commission a painting from a young artist whose work you admire. What would you have him paint?Would you ask for an epic battle set in a(n) (33)mythological world of monsters and fairies or would you ask for a realistic, (34)expressive portrait of yourself? If you chose the latter, you're in good company because that is (35)precisely what I did. I had seen so many beautiful portraits of famous people hanging in museums that I thought it was time to have my very own.It took me a long time to find a highly (36)qualified artist whose work would do justice to my portrait. In the (37)meantime, I studied the artistic process and learned a lot about how art is created. I must admit that, even though I've always admired artists, I never had a full appreciation for their creative talent. I certainly don't have that ability, so I'm incredibly impressed when someone (38)instinctively knows how to create a work of such beauty.I was fairly nervous about seeing my finished portrait. The artist, likewise, was very nervous about showing it to me. In the end, I must admit that he did a(n) (39)sufficient job capturing my likeness. I'm not in love with the painting, but the artist should take (40)consolation in the fact that he did the best he could with his subject. I'm not a very attractive man, so it's almost impossible for my portrait to be beautiful and realistic.Part III: Reading ComprehensionWhen it comes to the arts, many people automatically think of Europe and North America. This is understandable since so many famous artists come from these regions. Many art museums are filled with paintings and drawings from European and North American artists from the past few hundred years. All countries, however, have a unique artistic heritage, so it should come as no surprise that countries throughout Africa and Asia have their own artistic styles and histories.Completely landlocked within Southern Africa, the nation of Botswana is particularly susceptible to cultural trends and influences from surrounding countries, chiefly South Africa. However, there is a burgeoning arts scene native to Botswana, and the country also has a long history of distinct artistic traditions.The oldest evidence of art in the country was found in the Tsodilo Hills, located in northwestern Botswana, in the Kalahari Desert. Dating to 1,000—2,000 years ago, these rock paintings form the highest concentration of rock art in the world and are considered sacred by the San minority culture. Today, the San are known for continuing the ancient arts of decorating ostrich eggshells for jewelry and creating ostrich eggshell beads, which they consider to represent good luck and good fortune. Archaeologists believe this type of bead to be the oldest-known man-made bead; they have been recovered at East and Southern African archaeological digs and dated to 28,000—45,000 years ago.The National Museum and Art Gallery in Gaborone is the centrepiece of modern art in the country. It is widely regarded as one of the best art galleries in Southern Africa; it holds regular exhibitions highlighting the work of local artists and also sponsors an annual celebration for local art and artists. The National Museum also acts as custodian for the cultural heritage and traditions of the country, the duties of which include preservation, education, and promotion. Twentieth and twenty-firstcentury painters include Phillip Segola, Ann Gollifer, and Neo Matome.Spring in Gaborone, the capital city, sees the annual Maitisong Festival—the country's largest celebration of the performing arts. The festival includes free outdoor performances at city arenas as well as ticketed indoor events at Gaborone's theatres and arts venues. Performing arts organizations, such as the Mogwana Dance Troupe, are becoming more popular as more and more people embrace and wish to share their cultural heritage.Local handcrafts, supported in large part by the tourist trade, are generally of the utilitarian variety. Handwoven baskets, one of the specialties associated with Botswana, are of extremely high quality. Made almost exclusively in the Okavango region, they are woven with the leaves of the Mokolwane palm and utilize various roots and barks in order to give the baskets their unique colours and designs (typically associated with the nation's traditional lifestyle). Due to the abundance of cattle livestock, leatherwork has also developed as an important and widespread handcraft. Traditionally used to make clothing, blankets, and sleeping mats, leather is today more often used to make designer bags, belts, and accessories.41. Which of the following best describes the main idea of this passage?A. European art is superior to all other art.B. African art is superior to all other art.C. Every country has a unique artistic tradition.D. Art is only a modern creation.42. Which paragraph discusses the early history of art in Botswana?A. Paragraph 3.B. Paragraph 4.C. Paragraph 5.D. Paragraph 6.43. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. All art in Botswana is thoroughly unique to that country.B.

When we're adults, we long for the carefree days of our youth when we could play all day without worry. This is one of the greatest ironies of life. Indeed, "the grass is always greener on the other side." It is a harsh truth that humans always want what they can't have. It's our nature.That's why it's good practice to instill in our children a healthy respect for childhood. Too many adults seem to be in a hurry for children to grow up. We always ask them, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" We repeatedly tell them, "You can do/have that when you're older." We continually encourage them, "When you grow up, the world will be yours and you can make your dreams come true." It's no wonder, then, that children seem to be in such a rush to grow up, get older, and demand everything that we tell them is coming to them.Children should be free to play the day away. We should encourage them to use their imagination, create entire worlds in a cardboard box, and explore their backyard as if they were exploring an undiscovered country. You cannot put a price on an active and fertile imagination, nor can you overestimate the value of an inquisitive mind, a respect for the environment, and an urge to question why everything is as it is. These traits are all developed and nurtured when we're children and, without them, we would not be able to function as adults in the modern world.Research has shown that children are happiest and healthiest when they have the freedom to act like children. This may seem obvious, but it's often forgotten as parents push their children to study harder, practice longer, and essentially act like adults. It's important to remember that children are constantly learning. Therefore, they are also learning as they're playing. Exploring nature fosters a respect for the environment that may lead children to become biologists ornaturalists. Creating with paint and crayons instills a love of art that might help develop young artists or musicians. Playing make-believe stimulates the imagination in a way that writers, filmmakers, and actors find most useful. Building with blocks helps the mind understand how thingsare constructed and might lead to an interest in engineering.It's true that play helps develop skills that will be used later in life. However, this shouldnot be the sole purpose of play. Children should play because they're children. It's how they stay happy, healthy, and young. Why should we push them to be something they're not?41. Which of the following sentences is the main idea of this passage?A. It is a harsh truth that humans always want what they can't have.B. Too many adults seem to be in a hurry for children to grow up.C. Children should be free to play the day away.D. It's true that play helps develop skills that will be used later in life.42. Which of the following would the writer of this passage likely NOT agree with?A. Adults should understand that children learn while they play.B. It is important for children to play and act young.C. Many games help children appreciate potential careers.D. Children should concentrate on their schoolwork above everything else.43. "The grass is always greener on the other side" means _____.A. other situations always seem better than the ones we are inB. people always lack confidence in themselvesC. people prefer to live in a less barren landD. people always want their children to grow up fast44. This passage is best described as _____.A. a first-person memoirB. a dramatic dialogueC. a persuasive essayD. an entertaining story45. What does the writer mean by "You cannot put a price on an active and fertile imagination"?A. The ability to think creatively is worthless.B. The ability to think creatively is invaluable.C. The ability to think creatively helps children develop.D. The ability to think creatively is a natural part of childhood.。

They cause people to lose their homes, their possessions, or even their lives. In a word, theycan be downrightunbelievable and courage. Earthquakes and hurricanes may cause theworst things to happen, but they also bring out the best in people.In 2005, one of the worst hurricanes in recent memory formed over the Gulf of Mexico and movedover the southeastern United States. Known as Hurricane Katrina, it was devastating for many majorcities, especially New Orleans, and the people who lived there. While some people managed to (34)and find safety outside of the city, many did not. Unfortunately, they were leftwhen the floods filled the streets and drowned their houses.It is hard to use too many words to describe Katrina. It was one of theworst storms in history. It caused the deaths of more than a thousand people. It displaced tens ofthousands more. Still, there was an enormous of people who wanted tohelp. These people certainly deserve our and respect.In the days following the storm, details of what happened were all over the news.

Do you yearn to see what the world has to offer? Areyou tired of simply hearing about other cultures and want to finally experience some of them? Why simplytravel the world, though, when you can actively make a difference?Too many people visit countries to see the famous landmarks, taste the local food, and experience life away from their familiar hometowns. However, you can also give something back to the communities inwhich you travel. Volunteer vacations are becoming increasingly popular, and many people are discoveringthat they have much more rewarding and satisfying travel experiences when they volunteer their time and energy to worthwhile causes.Many volunteer vacations are easy to organize and simple to execute. Others are more complicated. There are opportunities for every budget, schedule, and amount of effort you're willing to dedicate. It's really up to you. You can teach a language in Africa. You can help build a school in Southeast Asia or a home for a low-income family close to your home. You can help national park employees conserve endangered plants and animals. You can go hiking and help preserve and maintain trail systems. You can volunteer at an orphanage and help keep children safe. The options are limitless and literally encompass anything you can possibly imagine.We often hear about the heroic deeds that some people do to help others when they are most in need, but why wait until a major disaster to give back? Volunteering your time, skills, knowledge, and energy to meaningful projects in the areas of education, health, sanitation, and construction is just as valuable.Ironically, many countries that are popular vacation destinations are also most in need of aid and assistance. Prominent world citizens such as Bill Clinton and Kofi Annan repeatedly extol the virtues of volunteerism and claim that true heroes are those people who give what they can with no expectation of anything in return.Next time you plan a vacation, won't you consider a volunteer vacation? You might make all the difference in the world.41. Where is a likely place that this passage might appear?A. On a marketing brochure for a volunteer vacation organizer.B. In a newspaper editorial about the need for emergency volunteers.C. On a travel brochure for a popular vacation destination.D. In a magazine article about volunteerism among prominent world citizens.42. Which of the following would make the best title for this passage?A. The Benefits of International TravelB. Heroic Deeds of Bill Clinton and Kofi AnnanC. Volunteer Vacations: Great Opportunities for Meaningful WorkD. Volunteers: The True Heroes of the Planet43. Which paragraph presents several possible scenarios for volunteer work?A. Paragraph 2.B. Paragraph 3.C. Paragraph 4.D. Paragraph 5.44. The type of writing in this passage would best be described as _____.A. educationalB. entertainingC. scientificD. persuasive45. Which of the following sentences is the writer's critical message?A.

新标准大学英语综合教程3课后答案Unit11 对于是否应该在大学期间详细规划自己的未来，学生们意见不一。
有的人认为对未来应该有一个明确的目标和详细的计划，为日后可能遇到的挑战做好充分的准备；有的人则认为不用过多考虑未来，因为未来难以预料。
(map out; brace oneself for; uncertainty)Students differ about whether they should have their future mapped out when they are still at university. Some think they should have a definite goal and detailed plan, so as to brace themselves for any challenges, whereas some others think they don’t have to think much about the future, because future is full of uncertainties.2 经过仔细检查，这位科学家得知自己患了绝症。
虽然知道自己将不久于人世，他并没有抱怨命运的不公，而是准备好好利用剩下的日子，争取加速推进由他和同事们共同发起的那个研究项目，以提前结项。
( tick away; make the best of; have a shot at)After a very careful check-up, the scientist was told he had got a fatal disease.Although he knew that his life was ticking away, instead of complaining about the fate, the scientist decided to make thebest of the remaining days, and speed up the research project he and his colleagues initiated, and have a shot at completing it ahead of schedule.Unit21 在火车站上，有一位老人给我讲述了他参加解放战争的经历，那些战斗故事对我有着极大的吸引力。
