新视野大学英语第三册unit5_graceful_hands全文翻译与原文
unit5 Graceful Hands 优雅的双手我从未见过克拉克夫人，但看过她的医疗记录和上一位值班医生交给我的报告后，我知道她今晚会去世。
她屋里唯一的光线来自一台医疗设备，它闪着红光，似乎在发出警告。
我站在那里，一股怪味刺激着我的鼻子，我想起了过去闻到过的腐烂的气味，我闭上了眼睛。
我嘴里有一股从胃里返上来的酸味。
我伸手去开灯。
灯静静地照亮了整个病房，我走回病床边，用无动于衷的、医生的目光观察着病人。
克拉克夫人已奄奄一息了。
她一动不动地躺着：骨瘦如柴的身体使她的头显得特别大；皮肤呈暗黄色，松松地裹在嶙峋的、连毛毯也遮掩不住的骨骼上；她的右臂平伸在床边，被无情地用胶带固定在一块板上，以便能固定针头使液体滴入；左臂横放在深陷的胸部，胸口随着不均匀的呼吸一起一伏。
我伸手去触摸她放在胸口的细长手指。
冰凉冰凉的。
我忙将手移到她的手腕，去感觉那微弱的脉搏。
克拉克夫人将头稍稍转向我，微微地睁开眼。
我俯过身去，勉强听见她微弱的声音：“水。
”我从桌上拿起一杯水，用手指封着吸管的一端，滴了几滴凉凉的水到她的嘴里，以缓解她的干渴。
她没有用力去吞咽，因为力气不够。
“还要，”那干涩的声音说。
于是我们又重复了一次。
这次她终于咽了一些，并轻轻说了声：“谢谢，你。
”她虚弱得没法交谈，因此没等她要求，我就开始做她所需要的。
我像抱孩子似的把她抱起来，给她翻了个身。
除了一件浅色的病号服，她什么也没穿。
她又小又轻，像遭受了严重饥荒一样。
我打开护肤霜的瓶盖，揩了一些在手心。
为了不伤着她，我小心翼翼地把护肤霜擦在她发黄的皮肤上。
她的皮肤松松地在骨头上滑动，背上每块骨头的轮廓都能清楚地摸到。
当我把枕头放在她两腿之间时，发现它们也是冰凉的，直到把手移到她膝盖以上的部位，我才感受到血液供给生命的热度。
而后，我挪了把椅子面朝她坐在床边，握住她那只没被固定的手，此时我又一次注意到她细长的手指。
很优雅。
一时间，我突然想知道她是否有家庭，接着我发现病房里没有花，没有孩子们画的彩虹和蝴蝶，也没有卡片。
大学英语unit 5 True-Height原文与翻译
True HeightLook at the following two sayings and then see if the story of Michael Stone bears out the points they make.The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it.-- MolièreWhen it is dark enough, you can see the stars.-- Charles A. Beard读一读以下两则名言，想一想迈克尔·斯通的故事是否印证了其间的道理。
障碍越是巨大，逾越它也就越感自豪。
——莫里哀只有天空漆黑时，你才可以看到星星。
——查尔斯·A·比尔德David Naster 1 His palms were sweating. He needed a towel to dry his grip. The sun was as hot as the competition he faced today at the National Junior Olympics. The pole was set at 17 feet. That was three inches higher than his personal best. Michael Stone confronted the most challenging day of his pole-vaulting career.真正的高度大卫·纳史特他手心在出汗。
他需要用毛巾把握竿的手擦干。

横杆升到了17英尺。
比他个人的最高纪录高出3 英寸。
迈克尔·斯通面临的是其撑竿跳高生涯中最具挑战性的一天。
2 The stands were still filled with about 20,000 people, even though the final race had ended an hour earlier. The pole vault is truly the highlight of any track and field competition. It combines the grace of a gymnast with the strength of a body builder. It also has the element of flying, and the thought of flying as high as a two-story building is a mere fantasy to anyone watching such an event.尽管赛跑决赛一小时前就已经结束，看台上仍然观众满座，足有20,000人上下。

What are the first feelings? Well, losing a job, or not being able to find one, almost always brings unwelcome changes. If you've lost a job, the first feeling is often one of shock. As well as the loss of income, many people find the order of their life is broken up, their contact with other people reduced, and their ambitions checked.At first there may be good feelings too--a new and better job is just around the corner--it' s nice to be able to lie in bed in the morning or spend more time with the children; have more time to think. But, unless a better job does turn up, the chances are that the days start getting longer and time becomes harder to fill. Many people pass through periods of difficulty in sleeping and eating, they feel nervous and depressed, often isolated and lonely, and perhaps worst of all, a feeling of being run down sweeps over them.Despite all these problems, though, unemployment can be a chance for a flesh start. You can discover that it provides an opportunity to rethink what you want from life and how best you can get it. You can use the time to plan a new job, learn a new skill, develop your hobbies, see if you can run your own business, do some voluntary work in your neighborhood or meet new people. It's up to you.1. The writer considers that being made redundant __.A. causes people to lose touch with realityB. completely destroys people's livesC. makes people unable to realize their dreamsD. stops people's chances of getting higher pay2. According to the passage, hope in the unemployed is replaced by breakdown when they __.A. can no longer get up late in the morningB. get tired of playing with their childrenC. are unable to gain a better jobD. have nothing left to think about3. One of the disadvantages of continuing unemployment is __.A. the worsening of relationship between husband and wifeB. the lengthening of meaningless lifeC. the feeling of being cheatedD. being separated from others4. The writer's mention of a fresh start suggests that __.A. everyone should change their job sometimesB. the unemployed people are capable of helping themselvesC. unemployment can be of benefit to peopleD. the neighborhood can help the unemployed people5. What is the writer's aim in this passage? __A. To make the unemployed face the cold facts of lifeB. To offer encouragement to the unemployed peopleC. To bring the attention of the government to the problemD. To help solve the problem of unemployment(2)As we have seen in earlier chapters, the American definition of success is largely one of gaining wealth. It is not surprising, therefore, that Americans have valued education for its money value. They believe that the more schooling people have, the more money they will earn when they leave school.Ben Wattenberg, a social scientist reported that in the course of a lifetime a man, with a college degree in 1972 would earn about $ 380,000 more than a man with just a high school diploma. Perhaps this helps to explain the survey findings which showed that Americans who wished they had led their lives differently in some way regretted most of all that they did not get more education.The regret is shared by those who have made it to the top and by those who have not. Reporter Richard Reeves quotes a black worker in a Ford automobile factory:"When I was in the ninth grade, I was getting bad grades. My father came home one night with a pair of Ford work pants and he threw them in my face." Put these on," he said, "because you're going to be wearing them the rest of your life if you don't get an education."Douglas Fraser, the president of the United Auto Workers Union, regretted not finishing high school so much that he occasionally lied about it. He told Richard Reeves about his pride in graduating from high school, but then a few minutes later he said: “I wasn't telling the truth about high school. I never finished. It's funny--after all these years, I still think about it. Because the fact is, I still think it was a stupid thing to do. I should have finished my education."Even a man like Fraser, a nationally known and successful leader, was troubled by regrets that he did not climb higher on the educational ladder.1. What is the main idea of this passage? __.A. Americans place a high value on educationB. Americans believe it is possible, though difficult, to be successful without an advanceddegreeC. Americans believe that the more the education, the higher the salaryD. A basic American value is getting material wealth2. The survey by Ben suggested that people __ regretted most not having got more education.A. who hoped to teachB. who were not satisfied with their own way of livingC. who were proud of their social positionsD. who had left high schools too early3. When the factory worker in the third paragraph was a student, his father __.A. wanted him to start earning his livingB. wanted him to study harderC. wanted him to work with him at the Ford plantD. wanted him to stop wearing such dirty clothes4. Which of the following is TRUE about Douglas Fraser? __.A. He was proud of his high schoolB. He became a successful leader thanks to his educationC. He wished he hadn't dropped out of schoolD. He was a liar5. This passage most likely comes from a book on American __.A. educationB. historyC. economicsD. way of life(3)Let children learn to judge their own-work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's. In the same way, children learning to do all the other thing they learn to do without being taught--to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle-- their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.1. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by __.A.listening to skilled people's adviceB. asking older people many questionsC. making mistakes and having them correctedD. doing what other people do2. Which of the following does the writer think teachers should NOT do? __A.Give children correct answersB. Allow children to make mistakesC. Point out children's mistakes to themD. Let children make their own work3. According to the writer, teachers in school should __.A. allow children to learn from each otherB. point out children's mistakes whenever foundC. correct children's mistakes as soon as possibleD. give children more book knowledge4. The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are __.A.different from learning other skillsB. the same as learning other skillsC. more important than other skillsD. not really important skills5. The title of this passage could probably be __.A. Let Us Teachers Stop WorkB. Let Us Make Children LearnC. Let Children Correct Their ExercisesD. Let Children Learn By Themselves(4)Anna liked the look of the house as soon as she saw it. Jack knew that before she said anything. The plain white walls, the black window frames and door -- the good taste of that combination had always pleased her."It's a nice family house.” she said. "One can see it's been well lived in."Fifty-seven Eden Square was a narrow house on three floors in the middle of a row facing a small dirty park. It was in what a house agent would call a popular rather than a fashionable area. The little front gate was open, broken. They went in and up a few stone steps to the front door. They could see in through one of the sitting-room windows from which a net curtain had fallen at one side. The large room was almost bare. A dirty green carpet half covered the floor. From an old brick fire-place a gas-fire had been pulled out into the morn. The wall-paper was dark green, dirty, and damp-looking. There was no furniture. Silently they stared in. Then Jack tried the front door. It was locked."It's been empty a long while, "he said. "All last winter at least. Is it worth going to the agent to get the keys? We'd have to do an awful lot of cleaning up.""Any empty house up for sale needs cleaning, "said Anna. "That's part of the fun of buying. You can make it look so different. This place will be a lot better when cleaned up. How much do you think it'll cost?""Well, it's about eighty years old, and modernized probably." He stepped back and looked up. "It should have three or four large bedrooms, as large as I think bedroom ought to be, and one or two small ones. That is, if it wasn't used as a guest house in the days before people started going to Spain for their holidays. I think it would cost about fifteen thousand, It depends on how modern it is inside. We'll get the keys and have a look, shall we?"They did so the following afternoon. In an earlier time, the house had had large, airy bedrooms. All four of these were now divided up by wooden walls and ugly passages. Each big window looking on to the park was shared by two or even three rooms. There were in all eighteen tiny bedrooms, each with a tiny wash-basin and water: sleeping spaces for thirty or so holiday-maker."Little cages," Anna said at last. She did not like the place at all.1. When Anna looked at the house, she __.A. liked its situation very muchB. admired the way it was paintedC. told Jack it was very expensiveD. said there was a nice family living in it2.
