He was crouching on the ground with deformed hands and legs, mumbling something. He had obviously lost the normal ability to move and work. A dirty plate was placed in front the miserable-looking man, in whichthere were some coins and small notes.As my eyes were drifting away from him, his eyes caught mine suddenly. What eyes they were! Filled with misery and expectation, they were looking straight at me. He was unable to speak, but I seemed to hear his pleading voice and read his despairing mind. His look seemed to be telling me about his hard life and his longing for help. For a while, I was at a loss what to do. Should I drop some coins in the plate like some other passers-by or turn away in indifference? I recalled news reports about men pretending to be beggars, who were actually healthy and able to work. Could this be another one of those scams? But the beggar was there, groaning and living. Then something seemed to hit me hard. I drew a five-yuan note from my pocket, dropped it in his dirty plate and walked away quickly in silence.“No good deed is too small.” Maybe we need to bear this saying in mind.▆Sample Essay for Task 2:We are living in a world of distrust.

The following hints mightserve as a guide:a. The problems existing in the relationships between people in our society.b. The negative results such problems may bring about to our society.c. What can you do to help establish a harmonious society as a student?▆Sample Essay for Task 1:One weekend morning, while walking on a bustling street with a light heart, I was suddenly overtaken by a startling moan. Turning around, I discovered the sound was coming from a black mass in a corner. “What’s that?” My heart pounded heavily. I went up and saw a human being, alive but in a dreadful state. He was crouching on the ground with deformed hands and legs, mumbling something. He had obviously lost the normal ability to move and work. A dirty plate was placed in front the miserable-looking man, in which there were some coins and small notes.As my eyes were drifting away from him, his eyes caught mine suddenly. What eyes they were! Filled with misery and expectation, they were looking straight at me. He was unable to speak, but I seemed to hearhis pleading voice and read his despairing mind. His look seemed to be telling me about his hard life and his longing for help. For a while, I was at a loss what to do. Should I drop some coins in the plate like some other passers-by or turn away in indifference? I recalled news reports about men pretending to be beggars, who were actually healthy and able to work. Could this be another one of those scams? But the beggar was there, groaning and living. Then something seemed to hit me hard. I drew a five-yuan note from my pocket, droppedit in his dirty plate and walked away quickly in silence.“No good deed is too small.” Maybe we need to bear this saying in mind.▆Sample Essay for Task 2:We are living in a world of distrust. We live behind cold security bars; we do not talk to strangers, let alone go out of our way to help them; we live in fear of fake products. In short, fear and feelings of insecurity fill the environment we live in.All this greatly harms our society. Growing up in such an environment, we tend to feel isolated and care only about ourselves. If things go on like this, ‘trust’, ‘teamwork’, and ‘harmony’ will eventually become terms unheard of.In my opinion, trusting others and being trustworthy are the two basic principles that we should follow if we want to improve human relationships. We may not be in a position to change others, but we can change the way others see us by winning their trust in us. Mutual understanding and love are the pillars that support a harmonious society.Unit TwoOptimism and Positive ThinkingEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▆Working with Words and Expressions3.In the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

You may draw on some useful ideas and expressions from a variety of sources, such as the two texts in this unit or the Internet.1) Having read the two passages in this unit, you may have come to a better understanding of life and thetimes when pessimistic and optimistic thoughts take turns to affect your behaviour. Write a letter of encouragement (of about 150 words) to one of your high school friends who failed in the college entrance examination. Tell him or her about your new understanding of the need to remain optimistic.2) The writers of the two texts in this unit convey to us the message that we need to look at the positive side ofanything that comes to us and that we need to take an optimistic and positive attitude toward life. Write an essay (of about 150 words) to share your ideas with your classmates. The following hints may be of some help:a. What is meant by “thinking positively”?b. What is the connection between success and optimism?c. How can we keep an optimistic and positive attitude?▆Sample Letter for Task 1:Dear Weihua,I know you are still feeling upset about your results in the college entrance examination. I’ve just read an article about how pessimistic and optimistic thoughts can affect our behaviour and I’m now sending you a copy, hoping that it will help you step out of the shadows.Naturally, failing the college entrance examination can be very depressing, yet if you continue to dwell on the past, you will never be able to pick yourself up and focus on what is more important for now and the future. Life is full of trials and anyone may suffer setbacks. We must take an optimistic attitude towards the things we have to deal with. Optimism and positive thinking are powerful forces. Good things do come true if we picture them often. Please do have confidence in your potential. Just work hard and prepare for another chance.You will make it.Yours,Janet(152 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:Thinking positively means allowing your mind to be filled with optimistic feelings, and always hoping for the best though still aware of the difficulties that might be involved.The human mind is powerful; thoughts of optimism and pessimism can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Though it might seem impossible to some, positive thinking and success actually have a cause-and-result relationship. The reason is that a person with positive thinking will always broadcast goodwill and confidence and that kind of radiating attitude will take a hold on everybody.Gradually, people’s attitude will shift towards more trust and respect. This not only opens up more opportunities for the individual, but it also feeds back emotionally, and the cycle continues.Though the shaping of a positive or negative personality often happens subconsciously, it is possible to control such processes consciously. A person can try visualizing favourable situations, whether it is remembering a contest won as a child or imagining getting that job offer so long sought after. Over time circumstances will change accordingly.

Theme-Related Writing1) Write a narrative essay (of about 150 words) about your pursuit of a dream or someone’s experiences inmaking his / her dream come true.Sample essayLi Hui, my friend in high school, was born into a worker’s family. She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice, because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the job opportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect her skills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chance came: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners would be given a scholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through her fingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certain that her dream will come true. (156 words)2) People may have different opinions about the key factors for success. Write a short essay (of about 150words) and share your opinions with your classmates.Sample essay:In my opinion, before a person becomes successful, he or she should fully understand the basic elements of success: competence, determination and optimism.For a person to succeed, he or she has to face great competition and excel in his or her chosen career. The person needs to demonstrate and prove his or her competence in dealing with problems. Without competence, the person can neither stand out among the crowd nor attract the attention of those who hold the keys to the doors of opportunity and advancement.Yet ability alone cannot guarantee success. Often enough, things do not go the way we have planned and failure is unavoidable no matter how intelligent or capable we may be. In such cases one needs to remain firm and optimistic, always believing that hard work will eventually pay off. If the person gives up halfway, success will never knock at the door.

Write a letter of encouragement(of about 150 words) to one of your high school friends who failed in the college entrance examination. Tellhim or her about your new understanding of the need to remain optimistic.2) The writers of the two texts in this unit convey to us the message that we need to look at the positive side ofanything that comes to us and that we need to take an optimistic and positive attitude toward life. Write anessay (of about 150 words) to share your ideas with your classmates. The following hints may be of somehelp:a. What is meant by “thinking positively”?b. What is the connection between success and optimism?c. How can we keep an optimistic and positive attitude?▆Sample Letter for Task 1:Dear Weihua,I know you are still feeling upset about your results in the college entrance examination. I've just read anarticle about how pessimistic and optimistic thoughts can affect our behaviour and I'm now sending you acopy, hoping that it will help you step out of the shadows.Naturally, failing the college entrance examination can be very depressing, yet if you continue to dwell onthe past, you will never be able to pick yourself up and focus on what is more important for now and the future.Life is full of trials and anyone may suffer setbacks. We must take an optimistic attitude towards the things wehave to deal with. Optimism and positive thinking are powerful forces. Good things do come true if we picturethem often. Please do have confidence in your potential. Just work hard and prepare for another chance. You will make it.Yours,Janet(152 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:Thinking positively means allowing your mind to be filled with optimistic feelings, and always hoping forthe best though still aware of the difficulties that might be involved.The human mind is powerful; thoughts of optimism and pessimism can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Though it might seem impossible to some, positive thinking and success actually have acause-and-resultrelationship. The reason is that a person with positive thinking will always broadcast goodwill and confidenceand that kind of radiating attitude will take a hold on everybody.Gradually, people's attitude will shift towards more trust and respect. This not only opens up moreopportunities for the individual, but it also feeds back emotionally, and the cycle continues.Though the shaping of a positive or negative personality often happens subconsciously, it is possible toisit whether situations, favourable visualizing try can person A consciously. processes such control remembering a contest won as a child or imagining getting that job offer so long sought after.

She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice,because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the jobopportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect herskills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chancecame: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners wouldbe given ascholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through herfingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certainthat herdream will come true. (156 words)2) People may have different opinions about the key factors for success. Write a short essay (of about 150words) and share your opinions with your classmates.Sample essay:In my opinion, before a person becomes successful, he or she should fully understand the basic elementsof success: competence, determination and optimism.For a person to succeed, he or she has to face great competition and excel in his or her chosen career. Theperson needs to demonstrate and prove his or her competence in dealing with problems. Without competence,the person can neither stand out among the crowd nor attract the attention of those who hold the keys to thedoors of opportunity and advancement.Yet ability alone cannot guarantee success. Often enough, things do not go the way we have planned andfailure is unavoidable no matter how intelligent or capable we may be. In such cases one needs to remain firmand optimistic, always believing that hard work will eventually pay off. If the person gives up halfway, successwill never knock at the door.

有些人会认为这样的话题完全是一派胡言，另外的人对相信和接受积极思维的人嗤之以鼻。
而那些熟悉这个话题的人中，知道如何有效地行动而达到理想结果的也不算多。
不过，关注这个话题的人似乎越来越多，相关书籍、讲座和课程越来越多，就是明证。
这个话题已越来越流行。
常听人们对那些情绪低落而焦躁的人说：“想开点！”绝大多数人不把这样的话当回事儿，因为他们不知道这话的真实含义，或者觉得它并不实用。
试问，在你认识的人当中，有多少人曾经停下来思考过积极思维的威力到底意味着什么呢？阿伦申请了一份新工作，但他对自己评价很低，认为自己是个失败者，没有成功的资本，因此肯定自己不可能得到这份工作。
他对自己的想法是消极的，相信其他的应聘者比他好，比他更有资格。
阿伦有这样的想法是因为他之前申请过的工作大多都没有成功，因此会有消极的体验。
面试前的整整一个星期，他的脑子中都充满着关于那份工作的消极想法和恐惧。

新世纪大学英语综合教程2作文答案作文答案Unit 1 p27 1) In my middle school years, I had a best friend. We talked about everything. And we loved singing songs together. Once, however, there was a bitter quarrel between us and we stopped talking to each other. It was obvious that both of us wanted to keep the friendship, but neither had the courage to break the ice. It went on like this for months. Then one day we were asked to write about friendship. I wrote in my composition what friendship meant to me and the misunderstanding that had separated us. It was given the top mark, and I was asked to read it in class. When I ended my my presentation presentation presentation with with with the the the words words words from from from our our our favourite favourite favourite song, song, song, my my my friend friend friend was was was singing singing singing along. along. along.

We live behind cold security bars; we do not talk to strangers, let alone go ou of our way to help them; we live in fear of fake products. In short, fear and feelings of insecurity fill the environmen we live in. All this greatly harms our society.

In my opinion, trusting others and being trustworthy are the two basic principles that we should follow if we want to improve human relationships.

Growing up in such environments, they tend to take for for granted granted granted what what what they they they have. have. have. Some Some Some even even even develop develop develop bad bad bad habits habits habits and and and character character character flaws flaws flaws such such such as as as self-will, self-will, self-will, lack lack lack of of responsibility and selfishness. In my opinion, taking a listless attitude toward life is extremely harmful to them. With such a negative attitude, they fail to appreciate the advantages they enjoy. They waste away their precious time, seeking pleasure in running after pop stars or indulging in computer games. In the end, they may have to leave college without having acquired any useful skills or knowledge. Sometimes I think it is good for us to think more of the young people who are still struggling for their lives and education. Such an attitude would certainly impel us to cherish more our college life. And life would be more meaningful if we treat it with a gentleness, a vigor and keenness of appreciation. (155 words) 2) Being admitted to college was an important turning point in my life. I would never have been able to make it without the help and support of my parents, teachers and classmates. Throughout the time I was preparing for the entrance examination my parents were always there to back me up. They allowed me to make my own decisions about which major I wanted to pursue. What’s more, they had full confi dence in me. I was lucky enough to have had fine teachers and kind classmates. My teachers were patient and competent to explain the problems I did not understand; my classmates helped me and encouraged me all the time. We shared our hopes and anxieties together. That was a memorable time in my life! I didn’t achieve everything alone. I owe a lot to those who have helped me to get where I am. （147 words ）Unit 3 p94 1) Li Hui, my friend in high school, was born into a worker's family. She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice, because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the job opportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect her skills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chance came: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners would be given a scholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through her fingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certain that her dream will come true.

The human mind is powerful; thoughts of optimism and pessimism can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Though it mightseem impossible to some, positive thinking and success actually have a cause-and-result relationship. The reason is that a person with positive thinking will always broadcast goodwill and confidence and that kind of radiating attitude will take a hold on everybody. Gradually, people’s attitude will will shift shift shift towards towards towards more trust and respect. This not only opens up more opportunities for the individual, but it more trust and respect.

Some hold that there are not enough opportunities because there are far too many people. Yet others believe that there are opportunities everywhere.

However, history has proven over and over again that the morally defective cannot be truly successful, even if they at times enjoy some temporary glory.

This This This is is is clearly clearly clearly reflected reflected reflected in in in our our reaction to advertisements. Instead of seeing advertisements as a source of reliable information, we tend to doubt the truth they claim and always assume that the producers are trying to trick customers into buying their products. One of the most serious consequences of such absence of mutual trust is the constant doubt and anxiety within our own minds. If we see everyone else as a potential enemy, we can no longer make new friends; if we regard all information passed on to us as lies, how can we make use of such sources effectively? Mutual trust is the glue that holds human society together. As students, we should try to foster mutual trust and help build up a moral society by our own deeds. If we are honest to others and foster mutual trust, we shall soon see the difference. (158 words) Unit6 p209 1) A Creative Person My physics professor is a very creative person.

To get better scores, some students cheat in exams. But dishonesty does not pay in the long run. Those who sell fake products end up losing customers. Students who practice cheating in exams are cheating themselves. By contrast, honest people gain a clear conscience and also win the trust and respect of others. Besides, it is easier for a person with a good record to get a better job. After all, who would want a dishonest employee? B sticking to the principle of honesty, we can help make the world a better place to live in. Honesty is the best policy and it really pays to be honest. (135 words) 。
