B: Th at’s too bad. But he should have asked his roommate to wake him up. A: Well anyway he got to the classroom before the listening part finished. But then he found the batteries for his radio were dead. B: Well he should have bought new batteries the day before. A: Yes very true. He then had to borrow two batteries from his classmate. But when Tom was doing the exam he found there were many words that were new to him. B: He should have spent more time memorizing new words and phrases before the exam. A: Yes and then Tom had a splitting headache because he had studied until two in the morning. B: That’s too bad. But he really shouldn’t have stayed up the night before the exam. A: And what’s more Tom was so afraid to fail the final that he peeped at his neighbor’s paper. He was caught and would be punished. B: Really He shouldn’t have cheated on the exam.2 Vocabulary Review1 A Though / Although B though C thoughA Both “although” and “though” can be used as conjunctions to introduce a subordinateclause of concessio n 让步状语从句in which you mention something which contrastswith what you are saying in the main clause.B “Though” is sometimes used as an adverb. When used as an adverb it is not used at thebeginning of a clause. “Although” cannot be used as an adverb.C When a clause beginning with “though” ends with a complement or adverb you canbring the complement or adverb forward to the beginning of the clause. However when aclause beginning with “although” ends with a complement or adverb you cannot movethe complement or adverb to the beginning of the clause.2 A reply / answer B answer Creplying Both “answer” and “reply” can be used as nouns and verbs. With a noun object we use the verb “answer” or “reply to”. e.g. We must answer / reply to these questions as soon as possible.3 A speaks B speak C talking D speak / talk You say that someone “speaks” or “can speak” a foreign language. If someone is giving a speech you say they are “speaking”. If two or more people are having a conversation you say that they are “talking”. You do not say that they are “speaking”. If you “speak to / talk to” someone you have a conversation with them.4 A injured / hurt B hurt / injured C wounded / injured D wounds You can be “wounded” or receive a “wound” from any attack in which a gun or sharp instrument such as a sword or knife is used. You can be “hurt” or “injured” or receive an “injury” a when any other weapon such as a heavy stick or bomb is used b in an accident. Both “wound” and “injure” are more serious than “hurt”. Note that “hurt” can be used as an intransitive verb but not “wound” or “injure”. e.g. It hurts when I try to move my leg.5 A houses B apartment apartments A “house” is a building for people to live in and often has more than one level. An “apartment” in American English or a “flat” in British English refers to a set of rooms within a larger building usually on one level.6A asideB apartC aside / apart Both “aside” and “apart” can be used as adverbs. “Aside” means “away or to the side”. “Apart” means “separated by a distance”. The phrase “aside from / apart from” means a except for b in addition to.7 A requests B requested C demandedD demands Both “request” and “demand” mean “ask for sth. or ask sb. to do sth.”. “Request” is more formal and stronger than “ask for”. “Demand” i s even stronger. If you “demand” something you feel strongly that you have the right to get it and will not take “no” for an answer. Both “request” and “demand” can be used as a verb or as a noun.A “request” for something is a polite demand for it.8 A bor derB boundary The word “border” refers to the dividing line between two countries or states or the land near that line. A “boundary” is a precise line marking the outer limits of an area.3 Roommates and Friends STEP ONE Sample In addition to those listed in the book my ideal roommate would also be: someone who does not smoke a responsible and honest person someone who does not snore while sleeping the best student in my class someone who does not stay up too late an independent person someone who does not interfere in my private affairs a tolerant person a trustworthy person etc. STEP TWO Sample No I don’t think roommates are usually friends. Living in the same room doesn’t necessarily mean that friendships will develop. Although roommates are usually friendly to each other not all of them are friends because friendliness is not always an indication of friendship. It’s true with classmates. Only when people have similar interests and a common outlook on life will they become friends or close friends. I think more often than not roommates will become friends. Obviously roommates spend much time together and therefore will learn a lot about each other. When people get to know each other friendship often develops. Many people could have become friends if they had met and got together often or long enough. Sharing rooms paves the way to friendship. We often hear older people say they were roommates or classmates and therefore good friends. It doesn’t mean roommates will surely become friends. They’re more likely t o become friends.4 It Made Me Feel So Good STEP TWO Sample As a newcomer in this university the first letter I’ve received here is from my best friend Dong Ming. Dong Ming and I were classmates in high school and we spent a lot of time together studying talking and playing around. I can safely say that not a single day was spent without our being together during our senior high school years. But now we’re studying at two different universities far apart from each other. Hisletter makes me feel as if we wer e together again talking. And what’s important is not the letter itself but what he said in the letter.Dear Dong HaoI felt sad when we left each other last Friday and yet a little happy about all the newthings and the excitement ahead of usin our new coll ege life. It’s what we want andneed.One thing is very important to both of us: to make more friends and to learn to get alongwith others. To do so I believe we should respect others—their point of view their wayof doing things etc. Only in this way can we make more friends and make our campuslife more interesting. What do you think I look forward to your reply. Best Wishes Dong Ming Sometimes I feel good about myself when I’ve been able to contribute a little bit to my relationships with others. I remember what I did for Xiao Li my next door neighbor and good friend. Last summer Xiao Li got seriously ill and was in the hospital for five weeks. At the beginning I didn’t know what I could do for him. I went to Mom for advice. Mom thought about it for a while a nd said “Well the only thing I can tell you is to be available when he needs you—not when you want to be available.” I took Mom’s advice seriously. I called him on the phone now and then to check if he needed any help and I went to see him every day after school and did what I could for him. So when Xiao Li recovered and left the hospital I felt so happy.5 When Your Neighbor Is in Need of Help STEP ONE Sample A young woman was walking along the streets one night when she was attacked. She screamed for help and managed to escape. A few minutes later her attacker caught her again and she continued screaming for help while the neighbors watched terrified from their windows and did nothing. They didn’t even call the police. The woman died of multiple stab wounds 多处刺伤. STEP TWO Sample 1 I think there are several reasons for that. First people were rather cowardly and selfish. When they heard someone screaming late at night they thought that might be dangerous so they just stood back and watched the woman get killed in front of them. They preferred to protect themselves rather than get involved to risk being injured or even killed. Second they felt that there are already institutions in cities to deal with this kind of problem. They didn’t think they needed to intervene because the police would do something for them. Finally it is possible that these people were so terrified that they could not think clearly or take action to protect the woman. 2 I don’t know. Maybe I would go to the street and try to protect the woman. I think more people would come to help if they realized what was really happening. Maybe I would call the police. But I’m afraid that when the police arrived she might already have been killed. Or maybe I would be too scared to give any help. I might simply close the window and put my ear plugs in. These are the different things I might do on such an occasion but I believe it’s most likely that I would call the police.Part 4 Translation and Writing2 Translation Practice Lean on Me 依靠我吧Sometimes in our lives we all have pain we all have sorrow 生活中我们会有痛苦,会有悲伤But if we are wise we know that there’s always tomorrow. 然而,聪明的我们明白总有明天(可指望)。

Unit 4 Fresh StartIn-Class Reading Fresh Start新的开端1当我父母开车离去,留下我可怜巴巴地站在停车场上时,我开始寻思我在校园里该做什么。
我决定我最想做的就是平安无事地回到宿舍。
我感到似乎校园里的每个人都在看着我。
我打定主意:竖起耳朵,闭上嘴巴,但愿别人不知道我是新生。
2第二天早上我找到了上第一堂课的教室,大步走了进去。
然而,进了教室,我又碰到了一个难题。
坐哪儿呢?犹豫再三,我挑了第一排边上的一个座位。
3“欢迎你们来听生物101 课,”教授开始上课。
天哪,我还以为这里是文学课呢!我的脖子后面直冒冷汗,摸出课程表核对了一下教室——我走对了教室,却走错了教学楼。
4怎么办?上课途中就站起来走出去?教授会不会生气?大家肯定会盯着我看。
算了吧。
我还是稳坐在座位上,尽量使自己看起来和生物专业的学生一样认真。
5下了课我觉得有点饿,便赶忙去自助食堂。
我往托盘里放了些三明治就朝座位走去,就在这时,我无意中踩到了一大滩番茄酱。
手中的托盘倾斜了,我失去了平衡。
就在我屁股着地的刹那间,我看见自己整个人生在眼前一闪而过,然后终止在大学上课的第一天。
6摔倒后的几秒钟里,我想要是没有人看见我刚才的窘相该有多好啊。
但是,食堂里所有的学生都站了起来,鼓掌欢呼,我知道他们不仅看见了刚才的情景,而且下决心要我永远都不会忘掉这一幕。
7接下来的三天里,我独自品尝羞辱,用以果腹的也只是些从宿舍外的售货机上买来的垃圾食品。
到了第四天,我感到自己极需补充一些真正意义上的食物。
也许三天时间已经足以让校园里的人把我忘在脑后了。
于是我去了食堂。
8我好不容易排队取了食物,踮脚走到一张桌子前坐下。
突然我听到一阵熟悉的“哗啦”跌倒声。
抬头看见一个可怜的家伙遭遇了和我一样的命运。
当人们开始像对待我那样鼓掌欢呼的时候,我对他满怀同情。
他站起身,咧嘴大笑,双手紧握高举在头顶上,做出胜利的姿势。
我料想他会像我一样溜出食堂,可他却转身重新盛一盘食物。
就在那一刻,我意识到我把自己看得太重了。
9我是否摔了个托盘,坐在教室的哪个位置,甚至是否走错了教室,有谁会在乎呢?没有人在乎。
这不像在中学。
在大学里,这些都无关紧要。
我完全可以按自己的意愿行事。
10一旦意识到我不必考虑别人的期望,只要自己满意就行,我感到释然。
我开始把大学看作一个美妙的实验。
我稍稍改变了自己的穿着,开始欣赏爵士乐,还认定自己喜欢光着脚走路。
11在接下来的大学生活里,我不再试图做出什么姿态,而是顺其自然。
大学,在我看来,也许是唯一一个犯错误可以得到完全谅解的阶段(包括踩到番茄酱,摔了托盘)。
于是,我利用这个机会来体验我认为自己可能会犯的所有过失。
12大学毕业已经三年了,我仍然时有过失。
其中的一些过失我甚至还是得到了原谅。
After-Class Reading College-a New Beginning大学——一个新的开端1“今天上午早些时候,我与一位同事通电话。
他告诉我,今天我不用到办公室来,因为正是新生入学的时候,校园里一切都乱套了。
他说得没错。
真的是一团糟。
校园里有数百辆车,载着汗流浃背的新生、他们的家人、还有许多行李。
父母们为什么时候停车、在哪里停车、是否要停车争执不停。
校警竭尽全力指挥交通,但是他们知道,今天不得不允许人们违反一些规则了。
这是一年中最忙乱的日子,这一点毫无疑问。
这也是我最喜欢的日子。
”2这是夏洛特·J. 帕特森在迎新致辞中的开场白。
作为弗吉尼亚大学的一位心理学教授,帕特森对新生了如指掌:她了解他们的希望、梦想和顾虑。
在开学的这一天成为大学一年级学生意味着什么?帕特森教授认为它意味着一个崭新的开端。
她接着说:3“它使我想起了积雪消融的早春时节。
你无论踩到哪里都会溅起水花。
但即便是又冷又湿,我也无法使自己怨恨那些日子,因为它们昭示着春天的来临。
新生的到来让学校变得一团糟,但我同样无法讨厌这件事。
新生来到镇上,就像绿色的新苗从四处冒出来,寻找阳光。
当他们从宿舍的窗户里探出头来时,就好像古老的大树上绽出的新芽。
也许有人会担心阳光是否充足,土壤是否肥沃,霜冻是否降临,但是对于幼苗和大学新生来说,能够存活,能够跨进大学的校门,就足够了。
4“是的,今天是新生活的开始。
昨天你们还是妈妈的孩子,住在家里;今天,你们已经是大学的新生,开始独立生活了。
‘新生!’我喜欢这个称呼。
这个称呼本身让人想到一个问题。
我们在读这个词时,应该把重音放在‘新’上呢,还是放在‘生’上?怎么读都可以。
无论你把成年看作是人生的一段旅程还是新起点的到来,今天无疑是你们人生道路上的一大步。
新生的欢喜和新生的忧愁都挂在我周围每一张年轻的脸上。
5“大学是令人激动的时期,也许还是你一生中最开心的时光,但同时也是进行许多重大调整和经历一些挫败的时期。
如今,大多数研究领域的竞争都已经非常激烈了。
你们必须努力学习,做好充分准备,才能进入这些领域。
信息爆炸对想要吸收所有信息的人提出了更高的要求。
因此,对大学生活来说,越来越需要有一个安排更合理的开端。
现在,学校里针对新生的课程越来越受欢迎。
作为新生,你们应该选修一些这样的课程,它们能帮助你们为将来学习难度更大的课程做准备。
你们应该确保自己能够提高读、写、说等各方面的能力,不要惧怕那些迫使你思考的课程。
思考可以令人兴奋并且大有裨益。
同时,花一些时间享受生活——放松一下,注意饮食,笑口常开。
让大学生活如你所愿,成为美妙而有价值的经历。
祝大家好运!”课内阅读练习答案Part One Preparation1 Talking About High School ClassmatesSample• Among the 54 students in my high school class, I’m the only one enrolled in a national key university. There are 14 others who were accepted by provincial universities or colleges. Their majors vary greatly, covering most of the engineering fields. Of the 14 former classmates, 4 are now studying in Shanghai, 2 in Shandong, 3 in Beijing and the rest in other parts of the country. Though initially dissatisfied with their universities or colleges, they are quite happy with their majors.• I graduated from ________ High School, a key high school in ________ Province.Among the50 students in my class, 48 are enrolled in universities, mostly national keyuniversities. Three went to Peking University and two to Tsinghua University. The three who study at Peking University are majoring in law, philosophy and physics respectively and the two at Tsinghua are majoring in computer science and information science. In this university alone there are five of us, each with a different major.Another three of my former classmates are enrolled in normal universities, one in Beijing Normal University, one in South China Normal University and one in East China Normal University.2 A Freshman’s Scho ol LifeSTEP ONE1DE P A R T M E N TOR2P3C R4ED I T S5MA J O R XO T6F R7ES H M E N RE C A8SS OT 9TSCC S10N O E UH O O R R11S O R M M R O12F I N A L I13TI CA14CA M P U S C I 15H16GR A D E S I U E O S T L T 17BA C H E L O R18LI B R A R Y B I O RI19OP T I O N A L NESSTEP TWOSampleI’m a freshman at Zhejiang University with a major in economics. I have been on campus forabout two months. I’m living in a dorm and have th ree nice roommates. I enjoy reading to widen my horizons, so I spend a lot of time in the university library. So far I have been enjoying my new life except that sometimes I worry about the coming mid-term and final exams. Our professors stress in class th at students’ top priority here is to acquire as much knowledge as possible. We should attend classes regularly and take good notes. We should hand in our assignments on time; and the results of quizzes will account for part of our final grades. Usually we are very busy during the week. But on weekends we can spend some time on our hobbies. The spare time thing I like to do most is to surf the Internet. Some students make use of their spare time to do some part-time jobs, for example, serving as a tutor. They say they have to earn at least part of their tuition.

When I was in high school, my goal was to enter a prestigious university, so most of the time I studied hard just for the sake of getting high marks. Now things are different, and I am more concerned about my future career. Thus, I plan to devote my time to whatever will prepare me for my future job and life. The only item that is not important to me is Item 10 because it’s too early for me to consider a recommendation letter. The rest of the items are somewhat important to me. I hope I can develop a good relationship with my teachers and classmates.• I think the most important goal I want to achieve in college is to develop my interpersonal skills. As we know, undergraduate studies should be focused on quality education. Gaining knowledge is something very natural to undergraduate students if we attend classes regularly and pay enough attention to lectures. In fact, learning is a life- long activity. I have a wide range of interests. I’m also a good problem solver. So Items 6 to 9 are very important to me while Items 1 to 5 are less important. As I’m planning to pursue further studies abroad after graduation, Item 10 is somewhat important to me.Part Two Reading-Centered ActivitiesIn-Class ReadingPost-ReadingReading ComprehensionReading Comprehension11dormitory / dorm room2watching3freshman4wrong5biology6 literature7cafeteria8stepped9dropped10ashamed / embarrassed11forgotten12fate13serious14matter 15experiment16forgiven2 1 No, that was just the way the writer felt, because she was self-conscious and shy.2She probably wanted to be out of the professor’s view.3Most biology majors are serious.4A Here “it” refers to “my entire life”.B It was a miserable day.5Here “it” refers to the miserable and embarrassing moment.6 Because she was afraid that other students might recognize her and make fun of her.7Dropping the food tray and falling to the ground.8Because he took it as nothing serious.9Whether you drop a tray, where you sit, or whether you show up in the wrong lecture, etc.3Sample• On the afternoon of the day I came to college, I saw my parents off and went back to the campus.I found my dorm and walked in. Settling into my bed as I was tired, I reached for the cup on thedesk when I sensed something strange. Two persons in the room were staring at me, puzzled. I can still remember I was a bit shocked at that moment. Who were they? I jumped out of bed, puzzled, too. Why were they staring at me like that? But in a few seconds I realized what had happened: I had come to the right room but the wrong building. I flushed and apologized in a clumsy way. The two guys seemed to be amused. They told me that they were also freshmen and that I was welcome to their dorm anytime I liked. I said thanks and then fled.• It happened about a week after I came to college. Just as I got out of the library building, I found that I had taken someone else’s bag. How foolish! I hurried back to the library, only to find that the guy was already in the librarians’ office with an angry look. The moment he saw his bag he smiled with relief. I apologized for my mistake and waited for his sharp words. To my surprise, he patted me on the back and said in a friendly way, “Don’t worry, I have made the same mistake, too.”• I made a serious mistake on my first English test. I forgot to put my name on my paper. My teacher didn’t blame me but told me to avoid repeating the same mistake. It was a good lessonfor me and I learned to be very careful when it came to details.Vocabulary1 1 rearing2 tips3 settled4 major5lot, lot6 rear7 settle8 major9 settled10tipping2 1 seriously 2 crashed3 schedule4 slip5clasps / clasped6 groped7 accidentally8 grinned9 opportunity10hesitation Translation1 The individuals who have contributed are far too many / numerous to mention.2 The noise woke us up in the middle of the night.3 He shouldn’t have been angry at what I said.

Th ey won’t drive you to study. They give lectures, they answer questions, and they disappear, leaving you a mass of assignments to do. Very often you’ll be asked to cover half of a book in just one week. But generally they’re much more knowledgeable, humorou s and tolerant than high school teachers.•Students in college come from all over the country. You can even see some foreign students on campus. We share our knowledge about the places we are from: different dialects, different customs and different eating habits. We make friends with each other and spend a lot of time together; thus we can broaden our horizons and discover an even richer world.•High school work was easy, so we always knew the answers and got high scores. But in college the texts are more difficult to understand, the quantity of required reading is greater, and nobody can answer all the questions. It seems high school students are swimming in a pool while college students are adrift in a sea.•Good study skills are a must in college. We’re entitled to much more free time but we should learn to use it in a reasonable way. In college most classes meet only once or twice a week. We have to work hard to keep up with the course work. We have to learn to take notes from texts and lectures because college teachers, unlike high school teachers, seldom provide notes for us. And we should also take an active part in discussions in class.•We probably have fewer tests in college, usually with mid-term and final exams only.•The college often helps with our needs for assistance—student loans, scholarships, special student aid funds, etc. There are also work-study programs that are available to satisfy students’ different needs for financial aid.•College students can take some part-time jobs. In this way they can earn some money to support themselves. At the same time, they get some useful experience and learn to get along with different kinds of people.•We are free to organize extracurricular activities in college. For example, in our spare time we may hold a party, a sports meet, an English speech contest, or we may go to the movies on weekends or go for a picnic on a spring day. In short, college life is very exciting and in most cases you’re the decision-makers.4 Fighting Against Freshman LonelinessSampleW ays to fight against loneliness on campus:•make more friends;•keep yourself busy;•have a good sleep;•surf the Internet;•have a tour around the city where your university is located;•go to a movie;•play sports;•phone your family or friends;•write letters to friends or send them e-mails;•read a novel or listen to music;•talk to someone you know;•visit some relatives or acquaintances who are in the same city;•stroll around the supermarket or depart ment store even if you aren’t going to buy anything;•be friendly with your classmates / roommates and spend some out-of-school time with them;•consult your counselor;•attend an association / club or be a member of the Student Union.Part Four Writing and Translation2.
