综合英语教程4 第二版 Paraphrase 答案整理 Unit 1- Unit 14
Unit 4IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences taken from the text.Unit 11.…there has been this long lull with nothing particular up!…Britain has been in too long a period of stillness without taking any particular action against the enemy!2.…we must “… meet with Triumph and Disaster. And treat those two impostorsjust the same.”…we are sure to experience both Triumph and Disaster, and we must treat them as the same thing different appearances because they are essentially interchangeable.3.…never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense.…never give in unless we are convinced that it is honourable and sensible for us to do so.4.Britain, other nations thought, had drawn a sponge across her slate.Other nations thought that Britain was completely conquered.5.…we have only to persevere to conquer.…we will win as long as we hold on to the end.Unit 21.The phrase “personal space” has a quaint, seventies ring to it.The phrase “personal space” has an odd touch that was characteristic of the 1970s.2.T-shirt weather can make proximity more alluring (or much, or less).In hot summer days, people can be drawn to each other, especially to the opposite sex (or feel disgusted with the closeness of others.)3.The logistics of it vary according to geography.People in different regions are given different sizes of personal space. 4.…individuals routinely commandeer booths and sets of facing seats meant forfoursomes.…it is quite common that one person occupies a booth and a set of facing seats designed for four people.5.Even the focus of science these days is micro, not macro.Even science focuses on the intra-personal, inner world rather than theinterpersonal, outer society these days.6.In the same way that the breeze from a butterfly’s wings in Japan may eventuallyproduce a tidal in California, I have decided to expand the contracting boundaries of personal space.Because the initial invasion of personal space can cause a chain of reactions,which may bring about a catastrophic consequence, as the breeze from abutterfly’s wings in Japan, if it initiates a chain of waves, may eventually producea tidal wave in California, I have decided to enlarge the shrinking personal space.Unit 31.Given the relatively few restrictions governing access and usage, it is thecommunications modal equivalent of international waters.As there are relatively few restrictions for reaching and using the Internet,communications via the Internet are comparable to traveling through theinternational waterways.2.But much less widely reported has been the notion that the Internet may beresponsible for furthering the fragmentation of society by alienating its individual users.A lot of people talk about the “new information age”, but not so many people areacquainted with the idea that the Internet separates people from each other and fragments society further as a result.3.It seems to me that we are a society that values immediate gratification above allelse, and what better place to achieve it than in cyberspace, where the cyber-world is your cyber-oyster.I think that in our society the top priority is given to the satisfaction of one’simmediate needs. The Internet is the best tool for this purpose, for on the Internet one can do whatever he likes to.Unit 41.It was therefore left to Yamahata to record, methodically – and, as it happens, witha great and simple artistry – the effects ...The responsibility was therefore placed on Yamahata’s shoulders to record the effects systematically and incidentally with a great and simple artistry.2.That absence, even more than wreckage, contains the heart of the matter.That vanished city rather than its remains represents the true measure of the event.3.In the photographs, Nagasaki comes into its own.In the photographs, Nagasaki regains its own status.4.… the human imagination had stumbled to exhaustion in the wreckage of the firstruined city without reaching even the outskirts of the second.… the human imagination had been exhausted and stopped at the wreckage of the first ruined city and failed to reach even the outskirts of Nagasaki.5.… we seem to need, in addition, some other picture to counterpoise against ruinedNagasaki ...… apart from the pictures of Nagasaki we seen to need some other picture toinspire in us a hope of life to counterbalance the sense of doom suggested by the ruined Nagasaki…Unit 51.Slowly, it planned across the tapestry of friendship…Slowly, the movie gave a panoramic picture of friendship…2.This wasn’t just another binge of trendiness, but a kind of cinema verite.This was not simply a shift from one fashion to another, but a truthful description of friendship.3.Well, that duality must have been mortally wounded in some shoot- out at theYou’re OK, I’m OK Corral.The two sides must have been mortally wounded in the OK Corral gunfight.4.Buddies hang tough together; friends hang onto each other.Buddies hold on together in face of adversity; friends cling tightly to each other for emotional support.Unit 61.July 4 is one of the times when the American in me feels a twinge of unease aboutthe great lacunae in our children’s understanding of who they are and is prompted to try to fill the gaps.July 4 is one of the times I, as a native American, feel instinctively uneasy about the great gaps in our children’s understanding of their American identity, and thusI am motivated to do something to fill the gaps.2.And our physical separation from our native land is not much of an issue.And living away from our native country does not matter much (in our children’s acquisition of our native language).3.In my day little French kids looked like nothing other than little French kids…When I lived in France as an expatriated child, the French kids were dressed in the unique French style, thus looking quite different from their counterparts in other countries.4.That experience no longer seems possible in Western countries – a saddevelopment, in my view.Full immersion in a truly foreign world no longer seems possible in Westerncountries, and I think this is a deplorable impact of globalization upon the growth of children in a foreign country.Unit 71.He was almost innocent of any sense of responsibility.→He almost had no sense of responsibility.2.He wrote begging letters by the score,sometimes groveling without shame,at other s loftily offering his intended benefactor the privilege of contributing to his support,a nd being mortally offended of the recipient declined the honor.→He wrote a large number of letters to his patron without shame,begging for money. But in a manner that it seemed a great honor for the patron to be offered the chance s upport him.That’s why he would be greatly offended if the patron refused to tale the honor.3.He would pull endless wires in order to meet some man who admired his work and was able and anxious to be of use to him.→he would use the influences from as many people as possible to meet his admirer w ho was readily useful to him.4.Is it any wonder he had no time to be a man?→Wagner was such a miraculous monster,is it any wonder that he didn’t behave like a normal human being in this world?Unit 81.“Yes,down,”he says.→“Yes,I’m going down,”he says.(Literally,he means that he is going down with the bed,but metaphorically he means that his physical condition is going from bad to wo rse.2.It is a sound you have never heard.It is something new under the sun.It could cure cancer.→And then he laughs.The wild,relaxed laughter is a totally new sound in the world t hat you have never heard.The laughter could cure cancer.3.She looks over at me shaking her head and making her mouth go.→The aide looks over at me,shaking her head to express her frustration and pursing h er lips to signal her annoyance,I understand that we are to cooperate.Unit 91.he couldn’t stand not being a part of our school.→He wanted very much to be a teacher of our school.2.we found a kinship→we found a strong connection between.3.I supported myself by sweeping foot floors of off-Broadway stages→I supported myself by sweeping floors of off-broadway stages before there was an y new role of me to play.4.He was still living in a world vibrant with all of the beautiful treasures he has stored →he was still living in a world that was exciting and lively because of all the beautif ul poems he had memorized.Unit101.Urban life,during the hours when they reign,is urbane.→Rats make city life orderly and courteous when they dominate the city deep at nigh t.2.City dwellers take the city with them to the country,for they will not live without is pamperings.→City dwellers create all kinds of fashion in the country,for they will not live witho ut these fashionable things.3.These windows are a scandal because they endanger the lives of office workers in c ase of fire.→These windows are disgraceful because they put the lives of office workers in dan ger if a fire should occur.4.No true sense of the rhythms of the seasons is to be had from a lawn in the backyard and a few spindly trees struggling to survive.→a lawn in the backyard and a few spindle-shaped trees struggling for life are not en ough to give the dweller any true sense of the season changes.Unit 111 .Nothing remains of it but memories and a fringe of dwelling houses on its outskirts.→Except for some dwelling houses on its suburbs,San Francisco has almost complet ely disappeared from the world and only remains in people’s memories.2.There was no withstanding the onrush of the flames.→Nothing could stop the advancement of the flames.3.An enumeration of the deeds of heroism would stock a library and bankrupt the Car negie medal fund.→The courageous and brave deeds in the firefighting would fill up a library if related in writing and exhaust the Carnegie medal fund if rewarded.4.Sometimes a whole family was harnessed to a carriage or delivery wagon that was weighted down with their possessions.→Sometimes all members of a family fastened themselves with straps to a carriage or delivery wagon that was heavily loaded with their possessions.5.And against this wall of flames,silhouetted sharply,were two United States cavalry men sitting their horse,calmly watching.→Two United States soldiers sat astride on their horse and calmly watched the conflagration,their shapes contrasting sharply with the wall.Unit121.It is an insidious practice,all the uglier for its blatancy.→The media’s malicious use of the small segment of black America to represent the whole of it is harmful and offensive.2.The free press,indeed,as the main interpreter of American culture and American e xperience,holds the mirror on American reality－so much so that what the media sa y is,even if it’s not that way at all.→The media are supposed to present American culture and American experience trut hfully by reflecting American reality,and people usually accept news reports as truth without any doubt.Unfortunately,in many cases what they present is anything but the truth.The distorted,inaccurate coverage of news is worse than covering nothing at all about blacks.4.Nor is it a matter of closing one’s eyes to the very real problems of the urban under class－which undeniably is disproportionately black.→We should never ignore the existence of real problems of the urban underclass－w hich undeniably is disproportionately black.5.For the millions of black people like myself－ordinary,hard-working,law-abiding ,tax-paying Americans－the media’s blindness to the fact that we even exist,let alo ne to our

Americans have.Unit 131.Their cynical attitude to marriage may be gathered from the enthusiastic reception they gave to Punch’s advice to those about to marry -“Don’t.”→From the way they enthusiastically received the “Don’t advice given in themagazine Punch, we can tell that they adopted a skeptical attitude to marriage.2.The humour was crude; but it went home to the honest Victorian heart.→Although the humor might sound offensively rude, it was readily accepted by people in the Victorian era.3. “The marriage state, with and without the affection suitable to it, is the completest image of Heaven and Hell we are capable of receiving in this life.”→The marriage state, whether there is love involved or not, is a combination of the happiness and misery we may encounter in life.Unit 141.Everywhere, the media flow defies national boundaries. (Paragraph 1)→Throughout the world, the modern electronic media flow across national boundaries. / Throughout the world, the media flow is not barred by national boundaries.2.Just as their “cultures”are neither hard-wired nor uniform, so there is no simple way in which they are “Americanized”,though there are American tags on their experience －low-cost links to status and fun.→For young people, cultures are not innate or unvarying. They don’t simply become Americanized although they may have contact with American fun culture at little cost.3. The empire strikes from inside the spectator as well as from outside.→American pop culture not only impacts on the more material side of young people’s lives but also touches their hearts with great force.。

Detailed reading
MARRIAGE
Robert Lynd “Conventional people,” says Mr. Bertrand Russell, 1 “like to pretend that difficulties in regard to marriage are a new thing.” I could not help wondering, as I read this sentence, where one can meet these conventional people who think, or pretend to think, as conventional people do. I have known hundreds of conventional people, and I cannot remember one of them who thought the things conventional people seem to think. They were all, for example, convinced that marriage was a state beset with difficulties, and that these difficulties were as old,

Unit 13 Marriage习题答案综合教程四
Unit 13 MarriageKey to the ExercisesText comprehensionI. Decide which of the following best states the author's purpose of writing.BII. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. T (Refer to Paragraph 1. The conventional people didn't have the falsely optimistic expectation that marriage would be easy, which can be seen from their enthusiastic response to the "Don't" advice which Punch gave to those about to marry.)2. F (Refer to Paragraph 2. It is said that in the nineteenth century, the horrors of marriage were depicted especially cruelly, but still there were songs, though rare, occasionally sung about happily married people, which could bring respectful silence to the drunken husbands. )3. F (Refer to Paragraph4. It is indicated here that the clergy would only say that marriage was made in Heaven, but it wouldn't necessarily end in Heaven, too.)4. T (Refer to Paragraph 7. Dr. Johnson's quote shows that he believes that marriage is not something natural for man and woman, so however they try, it is still hardly enough to keep them together.)5. T (Refer to Paragraph 8, which tells us that almost everybody seems to have painted the troubles of marriage in the darkest colours. And it is also mentioned that in modern times nearly everybody, single or married, is imagined to be unhappy.)6. T (Refer to Paragraph 9, which argues that, though it is believed that the ostrich can never escape his pursuers by burying his head in the sand, actually many of them do survive by this practice. It suggests that ignoring the difficulties will be the advisable practice for all the married people.)III. Answer the following questions.1. Refer to Paragraph 1. By denying the existence of the conventional people as depicted in Bertrand Russell's quotation who like to pretend that difficulties in regard to marriage are a new thing, the author intends to show that everyone in this world agrees that marriage is difficult, from as early as the beginning of human society to the present day.2. Refer to Paragraph 2. According to the songs sung in music-halls, marriage was like a hell where the married couple were constantly troubled by the wife's twin sister and mother.3. Refer to Paragraphs 2?. The humour in comic papers, songs in music-halls, and plays and novels are all examples to illustrate that horrible situation of marriage. Then quotations of reputed philosophers, writers, scientists and essayists are used to prove that even the wise painted marriage in the darkest colours.4. Refer to Paragraphs 5?. By "unconventional people," the author refers tophilosophers, writers and scientists, who have knowledge, talents and wisdom. What they thought of marriage could be derived from the essence of human experience.5. Refer to Paragraph 8. Since social reformers are keen to maintain the positive development of society, of which marriage and family are the most important building stones, they try to convince people to pursue happiness in marriage by recommending changes in their lives; while thinkers and seekers of beauty are more realistic about the chances of achieving what one desires, and they explore the essence of life through meditating over its miseries and difficulties.6. Refer to Paragraph 9. The ostrich, when pursued, hides its head in the sand and believes itself to be unseen. The logic in the ostrich's practice is that one can avoid danger or difficulty by refusing to face it. The author hopes that someday a naturalist will find out the ostrich's logic is valid, so that people can follow this practice by ignoring the difficulties in marriage, or pretending that they never exist. The metaphor is used to propose that, to a difficulty-conscious generation who are too much burdened with the thought of difficulty, it will be advisable to pretend in its non-existence. Otherwise, they will never enjoy the rosy side of marriage. If marriage is really both Heaven and Hell, one will never be in Heaven because of his fear of Hell.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences.1. From the way they enthusiastically received the "Don't" advice given in the magazine Punch, we can tell that they adopted a sceptical attitude to marriage.2. Although the humor might sound offensively rude, it was readily accepted by people in the Victorian era.3. The marriage state, whether there is love involved or not, is a combination of the happiness and misery we may encounter in life.Structural analysis of the textThe text falls into three parts: in Part 1 (Paragraph 1), the author, after quoting Russell on the subject, puts forward his own argument that difficulties in regard to marriage have been an old issue for centuries. In Part 2 (Paragraphs 2?), the author analyzes the roots of such difficulties by listing quotations from famous literary works and famous people. In Part 3 (Paragraphs 8?), the author assigns the causes of unhappy marriages to the excessive consciousness of difficulties in human beings, and encourages people to face the difficulties in marriage bravely.Rhetorical features of the text卼he reputed saying of the henpecked Socrates, ...Burton is far from encouraging!Pepys scribbled in his diary ?The pious Jeremy Taylor was as keenly aware that marriage is not all bliss.The sentimental and optimistic Steele ?Dr. Johnson, ?devoted husband though he was, ?Vocabulary exercisesI.

综合英语四第十三单元
综合教程第四册Unit 13I. Background尽管在捕鲸和杀狼的问题上，挪威的国际声誉并不好，但总的说来，人与动物关系十分和谐。
在挪威的法律中，甚至还可以找到“为了人类和动物的健康与福社”这类字句。
狗是最受挪威人宠爱的家养动物。
在大街上，常常可以见到一位嘴上叼着一支烟的妇人牵着一条狗，狗的后面跟着一个会走路的孩子，左手边的男人推着一个摇篮，篮子里的孩子的嘴上塞着一个奶嘴。
也有单身女子，骑着进办室的也不少见。
往往男士们带的狗高大威猛，女士们带的狗小巧玲珑，好抱的缘故。
国庆节那一天，人们甚至会给狗穿上一件价格不菲的挪威传统盛装“布纳得”。
猫也是挪威人家中的宠儿。
到朋友家聚会，养猫的挪威人总忘不了带上十来个吃剩的虾回家。
猫的可爱之处是对主人非常亲热和友爱。
主人下班回到家门口，猫就一下子蹭到主人身边，仰着身躯等待主人的爱抚。
有客人来，猫还会抢占客人的稚卒，与客人争宠。
有一次，我在挪威朋友家中抚摸了一下他的猫，这猫干脆躺在我身上，赖着不走了。
在奥斯陆，到处都有野生的鸽子。
在我居住的客林啸学生城，鸽子们常在厨房的阳台上过夜。
一见有人进厨房做饭，鸽子们就站在门外讨食。
在大街上，广场上，雕像的人头和手臂上，都有鸽子的俊俏身影。
鸽子不怕人，但总是与人保持着一米以上的距离。
对鸽子最感兴趣的是学龄前的孩子们，尤其是那些走路还不太稳当的孩子。
他们手里拿着吃食，追着喂那些鸽子，给成年人带来了诗一般的意境。

第十二单元TEXT动物的魔力许多科学家认为，动物——人体移植是解决器官短缺问题的唯一长远的办法。
玛格丽特·西蒙介绍了最新发展情况。
全球普遍缺少可用于移植的人体器官。
例如在英国，有6000人在等待人体器官——5000人在等待肾脏，其余的则在等待心脏、肺以及肝脏。
然而，每年实施的仅有1750例肾移植手术，500例心脏或肺移植手术，以及650例肝脏移植手术。
而等待的人数每年在以百分之五的比例增长。
在美国，等待器官的三万人中仅有一半的人得到了器官移植。
因此人们对动物——人体移植术，即人们所称谓的异种移植，产生了极大的兴趣，大多数科学家认为这是解决器官短缺问题的唯一长远的办法。
自本世纪初以来人们多次尝试异种移植手术，但无一例成功；其中存活时间最长的是一位名叫费依的出生20天的婴儿，1984年他被植入了一只狒狒的心脏。
任何器官移植手术的主要问题在于, 接受器官的病人的免疫系统把植入器官视作入侵者，因此会对该入侵者发动大规模的攻击，激活人称防御素的酶来攻击异体，最终也会杀死病人。
对于人体间的器官移植，人们通过对组织进行严格匹配以及长期使用称作免疫抑制剂的药物，已经克服了这种排斥现象，而此类药物仅于十多年前才首次采用。
然而对于异种移植，排斥现象更为严重，例如，要给一只正常的猪心脏输入人血的话，它将在15分钟内毁掉。
在过去的几年中，人们做了大量的研究，通过养殖遗传基因已被改变的动物来培养动物器官，这些动物被称作转基因动物。
人们将人类的基因注入动物胚胎以产生人体防御素的抑制剂，可控制防御素的释放，这样，在移植手术后，人体的防御素会把转基因动物的器官“看”成是人类的器官。
较适于异种移植的动物是猪，并不是其他灵长目动物, 而灵长目动物曾被认为是异种移植的最佳选择。
极具讽刺的是，灵长目动物与人类过于相似，使猿猴感染的同一病毒可能也会使人类受到感染，而移植一只灵长目动物器官可能会传播致命的疾病。
艾滋病最初或许源于猴子体内的一种病毒，并通过某种渠道传染给了人类。

Early life and career
As a school boy :worked on the farm
In 1996,as a leader of the research group that cloned Dolly
In 1997,undertooke a PhD and graduated in 1971
Clone technology
In biology, a clone is any organism descended asexually from a single ancestor and whose genetic information is identical to that of the” mother organism” from which it was created. In molecular biology, a clone is an exact replica of all or part of a macromolecule (e.g. DNA ) .
Unit 13 Dolly’s False Legacy
1. Do you think a cloned animal is almost the same with the original one?
The author—— Ian Wilmut is a British
embryologist(胚胎学家）who led the team that brought Dolly the cloned sheep to life at Roslin Insti incidence of death among fetudes and offspring produced by cloning is much higher than it is through natural reproduction — almost 10 times as high as normal before birth and three times as high after birth in the studies in Roslin.
On the other hand, conflict would be sure t arise if the cloned child failed to develop the same interests as the original. What if the copy of Einstein shows no interest in science? Or the football player turns to acting?...
Dolly’s death
On February 14,2003,Dolly died because of a progressive lung disease. She lived only 6 years, shorter than the expectation of 11 to 12 years. After Dolly was successfully cloned, many other large mammals have been cloned, including horses and bulls. The attempt to clone a bull was more successful . In 2005 a dog, Snuppy, was cloned by Korean stem cell researcher .
Dolly (1996-2003)
Dolly , the sheep ,is the first mammal to be cloned from differentiated adult mammary cells. She was born on July5,1996.She was created by Ian Wilmut and Keith Campbell. Scientists, however, did not announced her birth until February 22,1997.On April 9,2003,she died ,and her stuffed remains were placed in state at Edinburgh’s Royal Museum.
Roslin Institute
Roslin institue is one of the world’s leading cemtres for research for animal biotechnology. It has internationally recognized programmes on molecular and quantitative,geneties,genomics,reproduction,ani –mal behaviour and welfare and has pioneered methos for the genetic modification and cloning of farm animals.
Parkinson’s Disease
It is name after the British doctor James Parkinson (1755-1824) who discovered this disease. It is a chronic and progressive nervous disease occurring most often after the age of 50,associated with the destruction of brain cells that produce paralysis, peculiarity of gait and posture, and posture ,and weakness.
