现代大学英语精读2 Unit 2 AB comparison

Unit 2 comparisonText A Say YesText B Arrangement in Black and WhiteThe main topic of Unit2 is the problem between black and white, both texts concentrate on this point. And through attentive reading, I find the language skills in two articles are similar to each other. They both descript the dialog between people as vividly as the real life circumstances. And though this live conversation, the character is unfolded before the reader’s eyes, and helps us to understand the article better. But there are also differences between the two, for example, the writing angle and the general position adopted by the characters.As for the writing angle, Text A happens between a couple’s normal talking, though the article introduces the different opinions the couple take towards the problem that should black and white get into marriage, the real contradiction is “will you still marry me if I were black”. In this perspective, the black problem lead this couple to gaze at their relationship but not really be discussed. Text B happens on a party where a woman wants to be introduced to a colored singer, and then they have a conversation concerns about black.For the second difference, the woman in Text A doesn’t care about the color problem, she thinks lots of thing above racism such as true love, while the man thinks the because of the culture difference and the background, the two can’t understand each other. While the woman in Text B pretends to be kind and open-minded with niggers, she despises and be afraid of them.。

UNIT1 又一学年——为了什么?约翰·切阿迪1.给你们讲讲我刚当老师时候的一次失败经历吧。
那是1940年的1月,我从研究生院毕业不久,在堪萨斯城大学开始第一学期的教学工作。
一个瘦高,长得就像顶上有毛的豆角架一样的男学生走进我的课堂,坐下,双臂交叉放在胸前,看着我,好像在说:“好吧,教我一些东西。
”两周后我们开始学习《哈姆雷特》。
三周后他双手叉腰走进我的办公室,“看,”他说,“我来这是学习当药剂师的。
我为什么必须读这个?”由于没有随身带着自己的书,他就指着桌子上放着的我的那本。
2.虽然我是位新老师,我本来可以告诉这个家伙许多事情的。
我本来可以指出,他考入的不是制药技工培训学校而是大学,而且他在毕业时,应该得到一张写有理学学士而不是“合格的磨药工”的学位证书。
这证书会证明他专修过药剂学,但它还能进一步证明他曾经接触过一些人类发展史上产生的思想。
换句话说,他上的不是技能培训学校而是大学,在大学里学生既要得到培训又要接受教育。
3.我本来可以把这些话都告诉他,但是很明显,他不会待很长时间,说了也没用。
4.但是,由于我当时很年轻而且责任感也很强,我尽量把我的意思这样表达出来:“在你的余生中,”我说,“平均每天24小时左右。
谈恋爱时,你会觉得它有点短;失恋时,你会觉得它有点长。
但平均每天24小时会保持不变。
在其余的大约8个小时的时间里,你会处于睡眠状态。
5.“然后在每个工作日8个小时左右的时间里,我希望你会忙于一些有用的事情。
假设你毕业于一所药科大学——或工程大学,法学院,或者其他什么大学——在那8个小时时间里,你将用到你的专业技能。
作为一个药剂师,你要确保氯化物没有和阿斯匹林混在一起;作为一个工程师,你要确保一切都在你的掌控之中;作为一个律师,你要保证你的当事人没有因为你的无能而被处以电刑。
这些都是有用的工作,它们涉及到的技能每个人都必须尊重,而且它们都能给你带来基本的满足。
无论你还干些什么,这些技能都很可能是你养家糊口的本领。

Background
His Style
A direct writing style, obeying the “show, don’t tell” maxim, leaving much to the reader’s intuition Non-dramatic, focusing more on the psychological dimensions of a character in dilemmas than on plot development Often understated, forcing readers to become engaged in the collection of strands that will result in the full comprehension of a story. Exploring alienation, the nature of lying, and the essential foundations of relationships Hoping to instruct and inspire people to triumph over their situations through character change and development
