新标准大学英语综合教程3课后答案Unit11 对于是否应该在大学期间详细规划自己的未来,学生们意见不一。

有的人认为对未来应该有一个明确的目标和详细的计划,为日后可能遇到的挑战做好充分的准备;有的人则认为不用过多考虑未来,因为未来难以预料。

(map out; brace oneself for; uncertainty)Students differ about whether they should have their future mapped out when they are still at university. Some think they should have a definite goal and detailed plan, so as to brace themselves for any challenges, whereas some others think they don’t have to think much about the future, because future is full of uncertainties.2 经过仔细检查,这位科学家得知自己患了绝症。

虽然知道自己将不久于人世,他并没有抱怨命运的不公,而是准备好好利用剩下的日子,争取加速推进由他和同事们共同发起的那个研究项目,以提前结项。

( tick away; make the best of; have a shot at)After a very careful check-up, the scientist was told he had got a fatal disease.Although he knew that his life was ticking away, instead of complaining about the fate, the scientist decided to make thebest of the remaining days, and speed up the research project he and his colleagues initiated, and have a shot at completing it ahead of schedule.Unit21 在火车站上,有一位老人给我讲述了他参加解放战争的经历,那些战斗故事对我有着极大的吸引力。

Brazil's Famous Carnival Holiday
RenataPauperio from Brazil
Carnival is the most famous holiday in Brazil. It is not about a big moment in history or about a famous person, but it is important for the people because it's a time of camaraderie, freedom, and almost a whole week without work.
People can choose between parties or rest, and most people choose parties, day after day, night after night.
It starts forty days before Easter. It's based on the Christian calendar, but it isn't approved by the Church very well.
It lasts four days and four nights. It starts on Saturday and finishes on a Thursday. People put on their costumes and go out into the streets or to clubs.
There are also the Samba schools which make a parade showing their music, fantasies, and allegorical cars. They are followed by the people. Every year the parade tell a different story. Each city has one or more schools like this.
Carnival is celebrated in the south where by Wednesday everything comes back to normal
The problem is that it is not approved by the church in the Northwest where carnival is more traditional.
There people don't respect its end and keep going to party until the next Sunday
I like Carnival, but I don't agree that the party should keep going on. And, like at every other popular party, people drive, dance and have fun. Unfortunately, some people aren't conscientious and give it a bad name, leaving a bad impression of this holiday,
but it is the only national holiday that moves all the country and its different kinds of people and cultures together

New Year Traditions
Irish (Celtic) New Year
The Irish New Year festival is known as Samhain which meant summer ends and was celebrated on 31 October. The festival has survived as Halloween.
It was at this time they hold their General Assembly. This was held in the out in the air parliament where the laws were renewed and accounts of events, details of births, deaths and marriages, were recorded.
This day was considered of great danger for it was when the spirits of the dead returned to earth. It was believed the spirits could do harm unless precautions were taken. The Celtic priests go into the woods on New Year's Eve to gather bunches of mistletoe which they handed out to
people to protect them from any harm. Also bonfires were lit to drive
away evil forces. They also believed that it was safer to stay indoors as fairies were abroad on New Year's Eve.
In Ireland the girls would go to bed with sprigs of mistletoe, or holly and
ivy leaves under their pillows so they would go to bed dreaming of their future husbands. They might also chant:
"Oh, ivy green and holly red,
Tell me, tell me whom I shall wed!"
In western Ireland the direction of the wind blowing at New Year would indicate the trend of politics in the coming year
If it blew from the west it would flourish, if from the east the English would have upper hand.
Also if they ate a very large New Year's Eve dinner they would have plenty of food for the coming year
One custom that was practiced on New Year's Eve was to take a large loaf of Christmas bread or cake outside the house and hammer it against the closed doors and windows,
this was done so as to drive out any misfortune and let happiness in
The Druids gave a gift of twigs from the mistletoe, as this was a plant that was sacred to them as a magic source of fertility. It would bestow on the recipient a fruitful year in the number of children, as well as the amount of cattle and the amount of crop.。
