Unit-8-Two-Truths-to-Live-By课文翻译
1.生活的艺术就是要懂得何时紧抓、何时放手，因为人生就是个矛盾：在令我们依恋于它所赋予的种种恩赐的同时，它也注定我们最终得放弃这些恩赐。
正如古代的犹太学者们所言：“人降世时拳头紧握，但离世时还得松手。
”2.我们当然要紧抓生命，不仅因为它奇妙无比，而且因为它所蕴含的美已散布到了地球的每个角落。
其实，我们都懂得这个道理，然而我们往往只有在回首过去时才会明白这一点，只是在记起它往昔的美丽时，我们却突然发现已时过境迁了。
3.我们铭记褪色的美、消逝的爱。
但是这种记忆却饱含着苦涩，我们痛惜没有在美丽绽放的时候注意它，没有在爱情到来的时候回应它。
4.最近的一次经历再次使我明白了这个道理。
一次严重的心脏病发作之后，我在重症监护病房住了几天。
那不是个令人愉快的地方。
5.一天上午，我得接受几项额外的检查。
由于所需的检查器械在医院另一头的一幢建筑里，所以我得躺在轮床上被推着穿过院落。
6.在我们从病房出来的瞬间，阳光洒在我的身上，我所感觉到的就只有这阳光。
它是多么美丽，多么温暖，多么闪耀，多么辉煌啊！7.我环视四周，看看是否还有其他人也在享受这金色的阳光，然而所有的人都是来去匆匆，且大多数人眼睛只顾盯着地面。
继而我便想到，我也常常陷于琐事，有时甚至陷入俗物之中，对身边每天的美景也是视而不见。
8.我从这次经历所洞悉的灼见，其实与这次经历本身一样平淡无奇：生命的恩赐是珍贵的—只是我们对此从未留心罢了。
9.因此，对我们有着自相矛盾的要求的人生一方面要求我们：不要过于忙碌而错失生活中的美好和庄严;虔诚地迎接每个黎明的到来；拥抱每一个时辰，抓住珍贵的每一分钟。
10.紧紧把握人生……但又不能抓得过死，松不开手。
这是人生这枚硬币的另一面，也正是其矛盾的另一面：我们必须接受失去的现实，学会如何放手。
11.要学会这点并非易事。
尤其当我们年轻时，以为世界在我们的掌控之中，但凡激情满怀的我们一心想得到的东西，都将属于我们。
但是随着生活的继续，我们面临的种种现实让我们慢慢地明白了生活的第二条真理。

Warming Up
Becoming a volunteer of ILP will truly change your life. It’s you change the life of the children across the world. Because English is such an international language, teaching this language to kids is great lesson in their lives. Also, interaction with ILP participants with high standards and care for these kids influence them in profound ways beyond just learning another language. The method ILP uses is great.

But the method we used is really just playing in the environment. Where you are going, you are teaching the kids English inversion.

He sat with his computer in front of him, but no idea came to his head. So he decided to go and see a crime movie to get some inspiration.When he came back, he was surprised to find that he had had a visitor. Someone had broken into his flat. The intruder had had a drink, smoked several of Tom’s cigarettes – and had read his story. The visitor left Tom a note:I have read your story and I don’t think much of it. Please read my suggestions and then you can finish your story. By the way, I’m a burglar. I’m not going to steal anything tonight. But if you become a successful writer, I will return.Tom read the burglar’s suggestions. Then he sat down and wrote an ending to his story.Tom has not yet become a successful writer, and he is still having difficulties finding a good ending to his stories.

Her best friend, Lisa had a painting on display, otherwise she would never have come. But Lisa talked constantly about her summer art class and urged Sheila to attend the first show. Sheila had almost refused to come when she learned what would be shown.“Do you mean to tell me that everyone in your class painted the same thing?” she had asked.“Yes,” Lisa had said. “Is it a still life of an orange and some grapes.”“How boring! I don’t see how you could stand to paint the same thing as everyone else did. Art should be individual.”“It is individual,” Lisa had answered. “You’ll see.”So Sheila had come to the show. As she walked into the gallery, she saw her friend waiting. “Hi, Lisa!” Sheila called, “Here I am. Bring on the fruit!”Lisa laughed and led Sheila into a large room. The first thing to catch Sheila’s eye was not a painting, but a huge color photograph of the orange and grapes that the art students had painted. It was hanging high on a wall above the paintings.The first painting that Sheila examined was a complete surprise to her. The artist had painted a shapeless mass of color for the fruit but had mixed the colors very well, making them quite pleasing to the eye. The next artist had given the orange and grapes such perfect roundness thatthey looked artificial. Another artist had painted the fruit in strange shapes, while still another had made it look so real that Sheila felt she could almos t taste it. Lisa’s painting showed the surface of the orange in every detail, making Sheila want to touchit.By the time Sheila finished viewing all the paintings, she was thoroughly fascinated. She realized that every painting was as individual as the student who had painted it. All has seen the fruit differently and had tried to put their impression on canvas.

Learn to Communicate
Christmas is also a great time for family reunion. People like to travel the distance just to be together with their families. It’s a time to be nice and give presents, and show their kindness. To children, it’s a lot of fun, and a time for delicious food and to receive gifts. People of all ages would like to take time off from work at the end of the year and enjoy themselves. There’s another reason for its increasing popularity, particularly in some of the traditionally non-Christmas countries, that is, the advertising by the businesses. It is a time for the stores and businessmen to realize big sales and make profits. They begin their sales promotions weeks before the occasion.

新编大学英语3课文翻译 Unit 5、6、 8、9第五单元，我是怎样识字的3 你可曾在航海时遇上过有浓雾的时候？你仿佛被困在了触手可及的一片白茫茫中，不见天日。
你乘坐的巨轮，靠测深锤或测深线的指引，举步维艰地靠向海岸，既紧张又焦急不安；而你则心里砰砰直跳，等着有事要发生。
而我在接受教育之前正像那巨轮，所不同的是我连指南针或测深线都没有，更无从知晓离港湾还有多远。
我的心灵在无声地疾呼：“光明！给我光明吧! ”而就在此时此刻，爱的光芒洒在了我的身上。
(考原课文填空，英文，注意新单词) 9 那天我学会了很多新词。
现在我已记不清都是些什么词了，但我还记得其中有“妈妈、爸爸、姐妹、老师”。
这些词使得整个世界就像有了“亚伦的神杖，充满了鲜花”，为我绽开。
在这个重要的日子快要结束时，已很难找到一个比我更加幸福的孩子。
我躺在自己的小床上，回味着这一天所给予我的欣喜；渴望着新的一天的到来，这是我有生以来从未有过的期盼。
(考课文英翻汉)第六单元，人和动物的好斗性1 人类肯定是所有动物中最好斗和最残忍的。
我们会说暴徒的行为就“像野兽”，然而事实上，没有任何一种动物象人类那样残暴。
当领域性的动物或鸟类侵入了别的同类动物的领地时，后者只会做一些表示敌意的姿态以吓跑入侵者。
但是，万一有争斗，任何一方都不会受重伤，因为败方会做出姿态表示投降以便保全性命。
一般情况下，动物之间只会为了觅食而杀戮，同类动物之间自相残杀是极少见的。
(考课文英翻汉)2 然而，如果动物发现自己处于异常环境下，它会表现出特别地富有攻击性。
有一只老虎从丛林跑到村庄来，袭击了人，后来人们发现原来它的爪子受了伤，使它显然不能像平时那样去猎食。
假如不是因为受伤，这只虎毫无疑问还会呆在丛林里，并像往常那样去猎取食物。
关在动物园笼子里的动物，往往会比在野外时更加寻衅好斗。
比如说，关在笼子里的狮子一旦能自由自在地徜徉在非洲的大草原上，那么它会一直活力充沛，长途游弋，与家族同类一起追捕食物。

Warm-up Questions
1.Is there room for disagreement in science?
2013-6-12
2
I think there must be disagreement in science. If a so-called truth isn’t demonstrated by experiment, then it won’t be really truth. We are obliged to grow up in skepticism, requiring proofs for every assertion about nature. Disagreement can stimulate us to search for the answers and ultimately lead to human’s progress.

We humanbeings had realized the ignorance of themselves,and we can still make up stories to explain the world by scientific. Take a phenomenon in entomology for examlpe,to explain the admission of ignorance that leads to progress.

3. Is our behavior mainly shaped by our genes or by our environment?

One group of highly intelligent, beautifully trained, knowledgeable, and imaginative scientists maintaining that all behavior, animal and human, is governed exclusively by genes, and another group of equally talented scientists asserting that all behavior is set and determined by the environment or by culture. There is not a certain answer yet, but one thing is certain that we can learn quite a lot in the debate.
Through account for the problem of animal awareness,to state that students should be exposed very early to the big arguments currently going on among scientists.
