Passage:The ladies were puzzled. Cheryl Spangler, Valeria Borunda Jameson and Susan Puckett, three university-admissions workers on a training visit to Florence, Kentucky, had walked into a local barbecue joint called Chung Kiwha. But instead of sauce-covered mutton served up from the kitchen, they saw a buffet of uncooked meats and vegetables. Instead of knives and forks, they were given large scissors, chopsticks and metal tongs. No candle flickered at their table, but a bucket of fiery wood charcoal hissed in the tabletop grill pit. Chung Kiwha served barbecue, all right—cook-it-your-self Korean barbecue. “I didn’t realize there were restaurants like this,” marveled Spangler to her friends, who hail from Knoxville, Tennessee, and I worked in restaurants for 20 years.The secret is out, thanks to the growing popularity of restaurants where the customer is the chef. Long a staple of immigrant communities in big cities, restaurants where diners chop, grill, boil, or dip their dip their food are hot in the American heartland. St.Paul, Minnesota, has Thai hot-pot cooking. Indianapolis, Indiana, has Japanese shabu-shabu (another type of hot pot). A pizzeria in Las Vegas lets customers roll the dough.Why would people bother going out to cook their own meal? “Americans want control,” says Hudson Riehle, senior vice president of research for the National Restaurant Association. “The cook-it-your-self experience embodies the American values of freedom of choice and independence.” With families spending 46% of their food budget on meals outside the home, they miss the cooking experience—sort of. “Psychologically, people want to be a little involved,” says Pamela Parseghian, executive food editor at Nation’s Restaurant News.Not every diner, however, embraces the experience. Dragged in by enthusiastic wives, “men often sit with their arms crossed…that is, until we fill them up with good wine,”says Will Layfield, owner of the Melting Pot in Westwood, New Jersey. At the Vinok let, diner Grey Schafer says, “I don’t cook at home, and if I’m going to pay good money, I want someone to do the cooking for me.” What’s more, do-it-your-self dining isn’t cheap. At the Minturn Country Club in Minturn, Colorado, Kobe beef costs $49.95—uncooked. Still, restaurant-owners insist that the customer knows best. “Who knows what to them is rare?” says Mikulic, owner of Vinoklet. “This way, if they screw it up, I get no complaints.” Back at Chung Kiwha in Florence, diner Puckett sees it this way: “We don’t have to clean up, do we?.”参考译文:这些女士有些迷惑不解。

公共英语等级考试三级(PETS3)学习笔记第1部分Unit 1 Greeting and introuduction Dialogues /monologues: 1、You can tell they lived during the Depression. 这里的"tell"是断定的意思,咳……常常把它的意思与(告知、告诉)联系在一起,脑子便转不过弯来。

此句意思应该是:你可以断定他们生活在那时的大萧条期。

2、He really knows how to bring a person out. "bring a person out."是“鼓励一个人的”的意思。

整句话的意思是:他非常善于鼓励别人/使别人振作起来。

PS:to bring sb. out 意思为:to make someone feel more comfident, happy, and friendly /使某人更加自信、开朗 3、he looks like his fun to be with. 整句话的意思是:他看起来是个很有意思的人。

或,和他在一起应该会很有意思。

句子解析 4、since we're going to recruit some staff so that we can get our new school going in time。

这里的since, 和so that 是基于...原因的意思.根据意思我将其译成: 届时...将...以便... 整句话的意思是:届时我们将聘请一些工作人员以便使我们的新学校及时开学. 5、Would you address character description for the commercial and industrial arts staff? arts staff 怎么翻译? ==>你能够给商业与工艺美术的职员讲讲特征描述吗? arts跟前面的commercial and indutrial连在一起看,而非与后面的staff: (the commercial and industrial arts) staff. 6、There are a number of other positions to consider. "A number of" 换成"a lot of" 或者是”a great many”行不行,为什么? ==>可以换成a lot of或a great many of,因为position是可数名词。

He became the editor of this paper when he was sixteen.He went to Philadelphia then and bought his own newspaper.He worked hard and by the age of 24 he was one of the most successful men there.In 1732 Franklin published a book"Poor Richard's Almanac."Most almanacs contained information for farmers,such as information about the days and weeks of the year and about the weather.To his almanac,Franklin added wise sayings of observations about life;some of these sayings are still famous today.For example,"Early to bed,early to rise makes a man healthy,wealthy and wise,"and "Waste not,want not,"and" A penny saved is a penny earned."Unit1-5Title: Ambulance GirlWhen I became a volunteer EMT,my friends were puzzled.They knew me to be deeply terrified of sick and dying people.If there was an accident on the road,I tucked my head in my hands to avoid seeing blood or broken glass.My husband and I had been married 30 years. We loved to travel,read and write.But at age 52,I felt stuck in a midlife funk,cut off from others. Passing the local firehouse one day,I saw a sign:"Volunteers wanted:Fire/EMT."The EMT part pointed to everything cowardly in me-my fear of death and disease.Maybe I could help others if I did this and could also save myself by facing what scared me most. As time goes by,I was able to work through my fears. Now I understand that the closest I have ever felt to God is in the back of an ambulance.When I rush out to help sick strangers,I am part of something larger than myself.Sometimes I truly connect with someone who I would never have met otherwise-as I did with Nellie. One midnight,the AIDS hospice needed help.A colleague and I were shown to a bedroom.Lying there was a thin black woman with wild hair.When I was given aprintout of her medical history,I thought,this lady should be dead over ten times. She hadAIDS,he patitis and TB.She had had brain surgery.Tonight she had a seizure."Hello,I'm Clarissa,are you in pain?" I asked.She replied by cursing at me. I didn't take offense. When I rode alone with her in the back of the ambulance as another EMT drove,I reread the printout.Nellie was 33 years old.No previous address.No family members. No next of kin.Her whole life as presented here was just a list of medicines,symptoms and illnesses.One line caught my attention:Hobbies.Nellie's hobbies were sewing and gospel singing. I could not sew,but I loved gospel music. "Nellie,it says here that you like gospel music,"I asked. I expected another curse,but it didn't come."I really like Shirley Caesar," I continued,thinking of the singer's heartbreaking song about a mother's love for her ungratefulson,pouring her soul into every word. Suddenly Nellie's eyes moved back and forth."I like her too," Nellie said weakly. I was stunned she could speak. I started naming other gospel singers. With each one,Nellie nodded back,and I saw her try to smile. I was not a singer,but I decided to pretend that I was.It was not unthinkable that Nellie might die during this ride to the hospital,that I would be the last face she ever saw, the last voice she ever heard. I wanted to say something meaningful toher,something other than"Where does it hurt?" So I started singing,and I held Nellies hand as I sang. We reached the hospital,and she was wheeled to one of the ER rooms. I touched her thin shoulder."Nellie," I said.She fixed her eyes on me. "Take care of yourself." She gave me one long last look,and then turned her face to the wall. When I climbed back into the ambulance,there was no more trace of Nellie.The driver had cleaned and sanitized everything."Lets go,"I told him.As the ambulance pulled out,I felt like crying.But my eyes remained dry,like Nellie's.Hobbies:sewing and gospel music,I thought as we glided in the darkness of the night toward home.。

There's a lot of death, dying, and suffering out there!M: I heard that, but it's not surprising actually because we haven't had as much rain as normal this year.W:Well, if it could rain even a drop, things would be much better!And my flowers in the garden would come back in a heartbeat.M:I guess you might have to quit watering your garden.I heard that they are going to start rationing water.

Great!There go my vegetables.M:I guess so. But think aboutAfrica.Questions 7-10Have you heard enough about rain yet? Once again, torrential downpours seem to be dominating the weather stories of the day, and here in the U.K. is no exception!First of all,let's have a quick sum-up of the storm situation.Bonnie and Charley are still dominating the scene in central America,Bonnie, a tropical storm, is moving through the Gulf of Mexico towards Florida, and hurricane are gusting to 105mph at the time when this forecasting was prepared.But even with these tropical systems aside, there's plenty of wet weather elsewhere too. Turkey has had a downpour of thunderstorms during the last day or so, with 64mm of rain being recorded in Golcuk in just 16 hours. This is more than double the amount usually seen here during the whole month of August.Northwest Spain hasn't escaped, and neither have many areas of France. In fact, many western European countries had a few inches of rain from the weather fronts that are now plaguing the U.K.The main fronral band of rain moved its way northwards through England and Wales last night, giving over 46mm of rain in south Wales by morning. Although it then headed intoNorthern Ireland, northern England and southern Scotland, there have also been plenty of big showers developing behind it. Torrential downpours prompted the Met Office to issue Flash Warnings of Severe Weather due to the intensity of some of these showers.(注:可编辑下载,若有不当之处,请指正,谢谢!)。
