Some holidays, such as New Year's Day, are observed around the world. Some holidays, such as Christmas, Hanukkah, and Ramadan, are celebrated only by members of a certain religion. Still other holidays are unique to specific countries and are celebrated by people who come from those countries, or who are descended from people who came from those countries.St Patrick's Day is a national holiday in Ireland and Northern Ireland, and it is celebrated by Irish people and people of Irish descent in cities and countries around the world. However, in recent years, more and more people who are not Irish have begun to join in the festivities and celebrate the day. It has become especially popular in Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand. St Patrick is one of the patron saints of Ireland (according to the Catholic Church), and St Patrick's Day falls on March 17 each year.Historically, the day began as an Irish religious holiday but became a national public holiday in 1903. Beginning in the late 20th century, the holiday transformed to be more of a cultural holiday—a day to celebrate Irish customs and culture. In Ireland, the Saint Patrick's Festival has become a week-long event to showcase Irish culture to the world. The colour green and the three-leaved shamrock are the symbols most associated with St Patrick and St Patrick's Day. It is therefore very common to see people wear green clothing on March 17 even if they do not join in a major celebration.St Patrick's Day parades are common in cities around the world. The largest Irish populations outside of Ireland and Northern Ireland are in the United States. Many major cities, including Boston, New York City, and Philadelphia have held parades for nearly 300 years! It has also become tradition to dye water green in honour of the day. The Chicago River flows through the middle of that city, and every March 17, the entire river is dyed green! Water fountains in front of the White House in Washington, DC and in Trafalgar Square in London are also typically dyed green.41. St Patrick's Day is a national holiday in _____.A. the United StatesB. EnglandC. Northern IrelandD. Australia42. St Patrick's Day is an example of a _____ holiday.A. religiousB. culturalC. nationalD. all of the above43. Which of the following is a symbolic representation of Saint Patrick?A. Feasts.B. Festivals.C. Parades.D. Shamrocks.44. This passage is an example of what style of writing?A. Informative.B. Persuasive.C. Biographical.D. Editorial.45. Which paragraph describes the international influence of St Patrick's Day?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 3.D. Paragraph 4.。

最新Unit-8-Knowledge-and-wisdom练习答案综合教程三Unit 8 Knowledge and WisdomKey to the ExercisesText comprehensionI. Decide which of the following best states the author's argument.CII. Judge, according to the text, whether the following statements are true or false.1. F (Refer to Paragraph2. The study of the composition of atoms, or the development of the atom bomb, for example, has placed in the hands of powerful lunatics the means to destroy the human race.)2. T (Refer to Paragraph 2. This has become more difficult than it used to be owing to the extent and complexity of the specialized knowledge required of various kinds of technicians.)3. T (Refer to Paragraph 3. Although he had a comprehensive knowledge of history, he was still partial as the chief lesson of history which he sought to inculcate was that from the year 400AD down to his own time Germany had been the most important nation and the standard-bearer of progress in the world.)4. F (Refer to Paragraph 4. It is true that both Mr. A and Mr. B possess some vices of their respective kinds, but the fact does not prove that they are wise or unwise.)5. F (Refer to paragraph 5. The mistake lies in the extremity of the statement. According to Russell, man cannot free himself entirely from the physical and emotional need, so one can only grow in wisdom, which itself is a matter of degree.)III. Answer the following questions.1. Refer to Paragraph2. A sense of proportion could be seen as the ability to take into full consideration all important factors in an issue and attach due weight to each factor. 2. Refer to Paragraphs 1 and 2. In the first place, they are examples of the idea raised at the very beginning of the text: "although our age far surpasses all previous ages in knowledge, there has been no correlative increase in wisdom." The problem, according to the essay, is partly due to the fact that it is now more difficult to acquire a sense of proportion, or the ability to assign appropriate weights to various factors, thus achieving balance. In consequence, breakthroughs in science are likely to bring about harms if humankind fails to see the end of science and consider everything in a comprehensive manner.3. Refer to Paragraphs 1 to4. According to Russell, the vices of the lack of wisdom are obvious and palpable, ranging from disturbance to public life, most notably the upset of world peace, to unpleasant incidents in private life. Meanwhile, there seems to be animbalance in the growth of knowledge and wisdom, which is very likely to make things even worse. So, wisdom is necessary for both personal and cultural developments.4. Refer to Paragraph5. According to Russell, the essence of wisdom is impartiality, or emancipation from egoistic or temporal concerns. It is naturally difficult for man to attain impartiality, as man is naturally bound up by his own physical states from his birth. As he grows up, however, his horizon widens, his concerns get beyond the limits of time and space, and his feelings becomemore impersonal, hence the growth of impartiality and wisdom.5. Apart from the fact that it is one of the ingredients of wisdom, impartiality is also the basis of rationality, for irrationality is normally based on partiality.IV. Explain in your own words the following sentences.1. It would be unwise to pursue a goal that is bound to fail, although it might be noble to do so.2. I think the essence of wisdom is to get one's horizon free from the confinement of time and space.Structural analysis of the textParagraph 2: Of these I should put first a sense of proportion: the capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight. Paragraph 3: There must be, also, a certain awareness of the ends of human life. Paragraph 4: It is needed in the choice of ends to be pursued and in emancipation from personal prejudice.Paragraph 5: I think the essence of wisdom is emancipation, as far as possible, from the tyranny of the here and now.Four factors that constitute wisdom: comprehensiveness mixed with a sense of proportion; a full awareness of the goals of human life; avoidance of blindness and prejudice in private life; impartiality.Rhetorical features of the textThe capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight. (Paragraph 2) This has the entirely unintended result of making the food supply inadequate and lowering the standard of life in the most populous parts of the world. (Paragraph 2) Perhaps one could stretch the comprehensiveness that constitutes wisdom to include not only intellect but also feeling. (Paragraph 3)It is not only in public ways, but in private life equally, that wisdom is needed. (Paragraph 4)Vocabulary exercisesI. Explain the underlined part in each sentence in your own words.1. consider (when judging a situation)/take into consideration, give proper value to each/attach adequate importance to each2. Certainly/Very probably, brought a good and helpful effect to mankind, in reality/in actual situations3. talk (disapprovingly) about something less worthy or less important, destroy or ruin each other4. connected with/dependent on5. accordinglyII.

Myths1) Only special people are creative.2) Creativity is just about the arts.3) Creativity is all to do with uninhibited self-expression.Author’s opinionsCreativity:1) just as learning, is a highly personal process;2) is not a linear process, in which you must learn the skills before you get started;3) takes connoisseurship,judgment and creativity on the part of the teachers.

Schools should build a free environment and offer support for teachers and students to implement their ideas. Teachers should teach according to students’ aptitude and pay attention to students’ true needs. Students should figure out what their interests are and try to realize what they really want to do.2) I believe that creativity is not a state of being, but, rather, is a personal characteristic on a continuum from low to high. You can move your creativity up the scale by nurturing it. Furthermore, creative activity isn’t only the creation of art. Everyone who has ever found a solution to a problem has employed creativity. Most of the time, these efforts don’t require high levels of creativity. People high on the continuum of creativity have learned to take an active role in developing it by constantly finding out problems for further exploration. They routinely exercise their creativity. The key is that they keep working even when they feel that they will never find a solution. The true magic in creativity lies in the fact that the solutions do come.Language in Use4.1) genuine2) discipline3) facilitate4) talents5) motivate6) appetite7) dynamic8) acquires9) flourished10) ambition5.1) admitted to2) working on3) pass through4) thrown out5) end up6) do with6.a group of students (一群学生)a flock of sheep (一群羊)a ray of hope (一线希望)a bunch of flowers (一束花)a heap of earth (一堆泥土)a packet of cigarettes (一包烟)1) a body of2) a block of3) a chain of4) a ray of5) a gust of6) a mountain of7) a herd of8) a string of9) a bunch of10) a packet of7.1) adjective + noun-ed r osy-cheeked, good-tempered, warm-hearted2) adverb + verb-ed so-called, newly-built, well-known3) adjective + verb-ing long-standing, high-performing, funny-looking4) noun + adjective duty-free, snow-white, life-long5) adjective + noun part-time, first-class, mid-term6) noun + verb-ed hand-painted, self-centered, snow-covered7) noun + verb-ing time-consuming, world-shaking, English-speaking8) a + b + c hand-in-hand, heart-to-heart, three-year-old1) easy-going2) heart-broken3) self-confident4) poverty-stricken5) up-to-date6) narrow-minded7) long-distance8) well-educated8.Reference translation1) 我认为创造性是获得有价值的创意的过程。

新编英语教程第二册答案unit8dictationandtranslation
新编英语教程第二册答案unit8dictationandtranslationI. dictationA.Imagine sitting on the smooth floor of a dark room. There are no windows or doors. The walls are so thick that no noise from outside can reach you. At first, you might enjoy the restfulness There would be nothing for you to do. If you were tired, you might fall asleep after a while. But how would you feel when you woke up?If you couldn’t see or hear or smell anything, you wouldn’t know where you were. You wouldn’t know what time it was. Soon you might start see things which are not there. You might see flashing lights, hear dog barking, or smell a cake baking. You might imagine that the floor or the walls were moving. You might feel very warm or very cold. You might even shout to the people outside the room, asking them to let you out.What had been happening? The human mind is deprived of external stimuli it’s used to. It manufactures its own.B.Most people rarely think about how or why they sleep. We need sleep to rest our bodies and our minds. Both are important in order for us to be healthy. It seems there are two purposes of sleep: physical rest and emotional rest.Each night we alternate between two kinds of sleep: active sleep and passive sleep. Passive sleep gives our body the rest that is needed, and prepares us for active sleep, in which occurs. In passive sleep, the body is at rest, and the brain becomes very inactive. If we continue to sleep, we will enter a more active stage, in which the brain goes from being very inactive to being activeand the eyes begin to move rapidly. The eye movement signals that the person is dreaming. This alternating cycle is repeated several times throughout the night. During eight hours of sleep, we dream for a total of one and a half hours, on the average.Many people say that they do not dream , or that they rarely dream. This is not what actually happens, because everyone dreams and in fact, everyone needs to dream in order to stay healthy. The truth is we need both kinds of sleep: We need passive sleep to rest our bodies , and active sleep in order to dream. Dreaming helps us to rest our minds.Translation:A.1.The boy is so obstinate that he won’t listen to anybody’s advice, not even h is parents’.2.After the invention of the new model, the old one, by contrast, seemed very clumsy and slow.3.Since time was very pressing, they had to travel by night as well as by day.4.The consumption of domestic fuel oil varies from 150 gallons a month in winter to practically nothing in July and August.5.Did you have much trouble getting tickets for the exhibition?6.He survived the accident miraculously, but no one else did.7.I was struck by the resemblance between the two men.8.At the conference the general manager winked at me several times, but I still couldn’t figure out what he was hinting at.B.Jim:How’s your toothache?Andrew:It’s gone, thanks. I went to the dentist last night.Jim:Teeth keep causing trouble, and nobody really does anything about toothache. I can’t understand why.Andrew: They can put men on the moon, but they can’t keep people from having trouble with teeth.Jim: Why can’t they transplant teeth the way they transplant hearts?Andrew: I’ve heard they’re working on that. My d entist says they’re working on tooth transplants right now.Jim:On second thoughts, I’m not sure I’d want to eat with some other person’s teeth.Andrew:That’s not how it works. The idea is to develop a plastic tooth that can be put into the hole where your own tooth came out.Jim: Well, that sounds like a good idea.Guided writing:Reference version:Dreams reflect what people are thinking about during the day.
