The main topic of interest at home wa s my father’s new car.“Let me take it out for a drive.” I said.My father agreed, but not without his usual warning. “Be careful.”I glared at him. “Sam, I’m sick of being treated like a child. I’m in college now. Don’t you think I know how to drive?”I c ould see the hurt in my father’s face, and I remembered how much he hated it whenever I called him “Sam.”“All right then,” he replied.I hopped into the car and headed down the road, savoring the beauty of Vermont countryside. My mind was wandering. At a busy intersection, I hit the car right in front of mine before I knew it.The woman in the car jumped out screaming: “You idiot! Why didn’t you look where you were going?”I surveyed the damage. Both cars had sustained serious dents.I sat there like a gui lty child as the woman continued complaining. “It’s your fault,” she shouted. I couldn’t protest. My knees began to shake. I choked back my tears.“Do you have insurance? Can you pay for this? Who are you?” she kept asking. “Who are you?”I panicked and, w ithout thinking, shouted, “I’m Doctor Eppley’s son.”I sat there stunned. I couldn’t believe what I had just said. Almost immediately, the woman’s frown became a smile of recognition. “I’m sorry,” she replied, “I didn’t realize who you were.”(249 words)Unit 7 Relationships and CommunicationText A How Well Can We Listen? (Para 5-6) To become a good listener begins with concentration. That looks easy on the surface. In too many cases, we have to listen to other people with physical and mental distractions around us. The ring of the telephone, the slam of a door or other human voices are some of the common physical distractions. The mental distractions in one’s own mind, on the other hand, are much more difficult to overcome, for many reasons. A speaker may not able to keep pace with the working of the listener’s mind. The average person’s rate of thinking is faster than the average rate of speech. With much free time left at their disposal, the listeners are likely to be carried away by their own thoughts and they soon lose their way. That is where the problem lies: listening too quickly.Sometimes, the listener tends to skip part of what is being said unconsciously. Since each person has his own range of interests, when the speaker talks about something tha t is of no personal interest or concern to him, he would “switch off the talking.” Though he might nod his head or respond with gestures, his mind is wandering. This automatic control exercises its influence especially when the topic is too boring. (208 words)公共组二、三、四年级大学英语综合教程3（非音体美）（新世纪版）Unit 2 LoveText A How Deep Is Your Love? (Para7-9)Love was a magnificent building I had built on the foundation of friendship. It took time to blossom. It took a lot of understanding, loads of sharing and caring, and plenty of affection to become what it is today. And it meant a meeting of minds. You might say that I belong to the traditional school of romance. But in my opinion, love needs to be nurtured.And it has to be distinguished from the intense but short-lived love or the pleasures of the flesh.Our parents’ generation was fed lavishly with ideals. It was an era of constraints, restraints, respect, admiration, and plenty of romance. The long skirts, the quiet and unpretentious looks, the curled long hair, the calmness, the shy glance — these are all so frequently remindful of a bygone era. An age when the distance between the sexes somehow managed to help preserve the holiness of love and relationships.The younger generation, with its openness and fading lines of proximity has jumped on the bandwagon of love with so much haste that it is difficult for them to distinguish between physical attraction and mental compatibilities. What we have been exposed to via the media have fast paced our sensibilities so much that taking things slow requires effort on our parts.（215 words）Unit 6 Intercultural CommunicationText A Culture shock (Para 5)People have a way of accepting their culture as both the best and the only way of doing things. This is perfectly normal and understandable. To this attitude we give the name ethnocentrism, a belief that not only the culture but the race and the nation form the center of the world. Individuals identify themselves with their own group to the extent that any critical comment is taken as a remark which is rude to the individual as well as to the group. If you criticize my country, you are criticizing me; if you criticize me, you are criticizing my country. Along with this attitude goes the tendency to attribute all individual peculiarities as national characteristics. For instance, if an American does something odd or anti-social in a foreign country which back home would be considered a purely individual act, this is nowconsidered a national trait. He acts that way not because he is Joe Doaks but because he is an American. Instead of being censured as an individual, his country is censured. It is thus best to recognize that ethnocentrism is a permanent characteristic of national groups. Even if a national criticizes some aspect of his own culture, the foreigner should listen but not enter into the criticism. (208 words)公共组一年级《创新大学英语》预备级（音、体、美）Unit Three CommunicationHow to Be a Good Listener（Para 3-7）Here is some advice if you could like to be a good conversationalist: Be an attentive listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves. To be interesting, be interested. Ask questions that other people will enjoy answering. Encourage them to talk about themselves and what they have done.Remember that the people you are talking to are a hundred times more interested in themselves and their problems than they are in you and your problems. When someone shares information with you, put yourself in his shoes. Doing this will allow the two of you to discover solutions more easily and will also help you appreciate a perspective different from your own.Diogenes, the Greek philosopher who is supposed to have lived in a barrel, said, “The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is that we may listen more and talk less!”Do you know how to get on with people? Do you ever feel shy? What situation makes you feel shy? Do you sometimes feel as if you don't knowhow to interest and amuse people and have conversations with them? Do you search desperately in your head for something to say? Do people find an excuse to leave you as soon as they can?Try listening! (210 words)Unit Five LifeFeeling the Pinch (Para 4-5)My father agreed to give me a small loan and promised he would send money whenever he could to help me out. So far he has stuck to his promise, which is a big help to me. My mother, on the other hand, has been a little more practical by sending me food, medicine, and other necessities. She even bought me brand new snow tires for Christmas, because she knew I could never afford them. My parents' help has relieved a little of my financial burden, but it will be a long while before I can buy something freely for myself like I used to in high school.I have been here for almost three months and every day has been a struggle for me. Even though my loans were approved, I still have to come up with money to fix my car, which always seems to be breaking down, to pay my phone bill, which seems to get more expensive every month,and to buy food, so I will not go hungry if I miss a meal in my meal plan. Another struggle I have to look forward to in the future is paying off all the loans I have just to go to this school. Sometimes, I wonder if all this money borrowing and penny-pinching is worth it, but then I realize that without a good education I would have no hope of ever making enough money to survive in the real world. (245 words)公共组二、三、四年级创新大学英语综合教程2 （音、体、美）Unit 3 The New Discovery of Thank-you（Para 5 - 6）"I was reminded that I lived in an exciting and interesting place," he says. "Whenever I'm feeling down, I do this. It makes me feel better." It's been more than 20 years since David took his "walk of thanks" across Manhattan. Now he's a successful entrepreneur in the media business and says his gratitude stroll helps him stay focused to this day.What if, instead of indulging in our misery, we all chose to focus on being valued by a dear friend, for example, or the memory of a colleague's face when she receives a surprise birthday cake at work, or the smooth ride we've had to work in the past week? As science is now proving, feeling grateful can actually make us healthier. Practicing gratitude, acknowledging the blessings in our lives and making it a point to recognize the good things can change us positively. We'll sleep better and exercise more. We'll feel more optimistic. We'll be more alert and active. And if we do this over a period of time, we'll realize that we're making progress toward our life goals. (182 words)Unit 5 What’s Globalization（Para 4 - 5）The question has become increasingly relevant as to what is the proper balance between the cultural heritage and the globalization that threatens to unify the world in one model. That model at this stage of the world economy seems clearly the American one, as the US is now leading the world economy, almost without any challenge. The American style of capitalism is taking the world over by storm with its emphasis on enterprise, the market force and the capital market.To my mind, however, there are no conquerors and the conquered in the march of globalization fueled by the technological and economic development. The world is infinitely more exciting today—the Internet linking almost everyone everywhere, cellular phones rising up in places far and near, and yes, McDonald's in France and French wines in China. The best of globalization is to have the modern technology and efficiency while preserving the cultural heritage and the way of lifethe people treasure, and to make the latter more accessible to the people beyond their original geographic boundaries. In a word, it is making the best from all over the world available everywhere in the world. (193 words)专业组一年级综合英语教程1Unit 7 The Mystery of the White Gardenia （Para 1-3）Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a white gardenia was delivered to my house. No card or note came with it. Calls to the florist were always in vain—it was a cash purchase. After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender’s identity and just delighted in the beauty and heady perfume of that one magical, perfect white flower nestled in soft pink tissue paper.But I never stopped imagining who the anonymous giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about someone wonderful and exciting but too shy or eccentric to make know his or her identity.My mother contributed to these imaginations. She’d ask me if there was someone for whom I had done a special kindness who might be showing appreciation. Perhaps the neighbor I’d helped when she was unloadin g a car full of groceries. Or maybe it was the old man across the street whose mail I retrieved during the winter so he wouldn’t have to venture down his icy steps. As a teen-ager, though, I had more fun speculating that it might be a boy I had a crush on or one who had noticed me even I didn’t know him. (208 words)Unit 8 The Message Behind the Smile (Para 2-4) Child psychologists report that babies start smiling so early in life (often as early as three weeks) that this action is unlikely to have been picked up from parents. Apparently the act of wrinkling up the mouth functions as a vital survival mechanism: by making the baby appear attractive, a smile reduces the chance that it will be abandoned by the mother.While smiling may start as instinctive behaviour, it is soon shaped by social situations. By the time we are four years old, it is no longer a sign of openly expressed pleasure. Instead, it can be produced artificially to please others. According to Dr. Roger Lambb of Oxford University, "Conversational signals become habitual and just as automatic as emotional expressions. It is very difficult for adult not to smile and nod their heads when listening to someone's conversation."The problems start when people of different ages, sexes, and cultures try to smile encouragingly at each other, for although the basic expression is universally recognized, each social group develops its own system of conversational signals. A typical British "wry smile", for example, involving raising one corner of the mouth and lowering the other, is likely to be incomprehensible to people of most other nationalities. (205 words)专业组二、三、四年级综合英语教程3Unit 11 The Two Roads (Para 2-5)The days of his youth appeared like dreams before him, and he recalled the serious moment when his father placed him at the entrance of the two roads-one leading to a peaceful, sunny place, covered with flowers, fruits and resounding with soft, sweet songs；the other leading to a deep, dark cave, which was endless，where devils and poisonous snakes hissed and crawled.He looked towards the sky and cried painfully, ″O youth, return！O my father, place me once more at the entrance to life, and I'll choose the better way！″But both his father and the days of his youth had passed away.He saw the lights flowing away in the darkness. These were the days of his wasted life; he saw a star fall from the sky and disappear, and this was the symbolof himself. His remorse, which was like a sharp arrow, struck deeply into his heart. Then he remembered his friends in his childhood, who entered on life with him. But they had made their way to success and were now honoured and happy on this New Year's night.The clock in the high church tower struck and the sound made him remember his parents' early love for him. They had taught him and prayed to God for his good. But he chose the wrong way. With shame and grief he dared no longer look towards that heaven where his father lived. His darkened eyes were full of tears, and with a despairing effort, he burst out a cry: "Come back, my early days! Come back!" （266 words）Unit 10 A Horse and Two Goats (Para 9-15) The old man reacted to the relaxed atmosphere by smiling himself, and pleaded, "Please go away, sir. I know nothing. Our village has always had a clean record. Must be the other village.""Please try to understand me," the American tourist said. "I arrived three weeks ago and have traveled five thousand miles since, seeing your wonderful country."Then he went on to explain at length, uttering each syllable carefully, what brought him to this country, how much he liked it, what he did at home, how he had planned for years to visit India, the dream of his life and so forth — every now and then pausing to smile politely. The old man smiled back but said nothing. Then he turned to go.The other seized his shoulder and said earnestly, "Is this statue yours? Will you sell it to me?"The old man realized that the other was referring to the horse. He thought for a second and then related in detail that the horse had been there for a very long time and that it would appear as the tenth avatar at the end of the Yuga, when the world would be destroyed, and the Redeemer would come in the form of a horse to help the good and punish the evil."And this horse will come to life then," he continued, "and that is why this is the most sacred village in the whole world."A conversation leading to mutual mystification followed, with the Indian chattering away about various avatars of God Vishnu and the American trying to drive a bargain for the purchase of the statue.
