《大学英语2》(新)第二套作业(第五~八单元)
新视界大学英语第2册第5单元课文翻译及练习答案
新视界大学英语综合教程第五单元课文翻译及练习答案Active Reading闲暇无为——抑或如何歇着无所事事几个世纪以前，人们没有多少闲暇时间，因为大家都在辛苦劳作。
在19世纪的英国，人们有了较多的空闲时间，但是维多利亚时代的人认为无所事事地歇着是一种罪。
于是，为了避免其诱惑，他们发明了足球和板球。
他们还开始从事更温和的休闲活动，如观鸟、园艺，甚至可能只是观看一项运动。
这给他们一种有事可做的满足感。
其中的一个例子是板球，这是一种规则怪异的奇特运动，比赛一连五天也没有任何进展，最后球员常常决定比赛以平局而告终。
但是所有的球员和观众都对这种毫无结果的比赛感到心满意足。
这就是我们现在称之为闲暇无为的一个很好的例子。
近年来，闲暇无为中的互动渐渐地变得更少了。
20世纪90年代，一种新的休闲方式诞生了，一些人认为躺在沙发上看电视体育节目或是DVD是他们能做的最令人激动的闲暇无为活动了。
这种人就是沙发土豆。
那么，谁想成为沙发土豆呢？实际上，许多人都想，而且都有很好的理由。
也许是一周中的休息日，也许是刚下班或放学回来，也许是疲惫不堪时想放松一下，对于沙发土豆来说，其他所有活动都太麻烦了，而懒散悠闲才是一种艺术。
怎么成为沙发土豆呢？那很容易。
找个舒适的地方坐下，比如一张很不错的软椅，或者……你知道接下来是什么……一张沙发。
别坐在土豆上。
确定你需要的所有东西都备好了：零食（尤其是炸薯片——真正的沙发土豆不会吃别的任何东西）、饮料、杂志和电视。
最重要的一个装备当然是遥控器了。
如果没有无需离开沙发就能改换频道的自由，那沙发土豆就徒有虚名了。
实际上，如果看电视不拿遥控器，就有类似于锻炼身体的危险了，这也许是应该避免的。
现在开始看电视吧。
要每十秒换一次频道，然后照此一直换下去。
尽可能快速地失去注意力，好让你保持一个沙发土豆的状态。
（记住，你的注意力持续时间和土豆的一样长。
）最后，请别人帮你做事，如再拿点吃的，或租张影碟。
然而，对他们的态度一定要好！如果态度不好，你很可能要自己做这些事了。

The following hints might serveas 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 hear his pleading voice and read his despairing mind. His look seemed to be telling me about his hard life and his longingfor help. For a while, I was at a loss what to do. Should I drop some coins in the plate like some other passers-byor 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. 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 the timeswhen 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 entranc e 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 Writing 1) Write a narrative essay (of about 150 words) abou t 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 150 words)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.

新视野大学英语2读写教程课本翻译(5-8单元)
新视野大学英语2读写教程课本翻译（5-8单元）Unit 5课文A花钱还是存钱,学生进退维谷1你是不是跟我一样对“我应该花钱还是存钱”这个问题感到困惑,且有被操纵的感觉?我觉得我们从生活的环境里所获得的信息似乎是有违常识、互相矛盾的。
政府告诉我们要花钱,否则我们将永远走不出衰退与此同时，他们又告诉我们，除非我们节省更多的钱,否则我们的国家会处于严重危险之中。
银行提供较高的利率以增加储蓄。
然后,同样是这些银行又提供信用卡让我们可以花更多的钱。
2这里还有一个大家熟悉的例子:如果我们不按时支付信用卡账单,我们会收到从信用卡公司发来的类似这样的令人讨厌的催缴账单的电子邮件:不还款是不可接受的。
请立即缴付,否则后果自负!之后,一旦还款;我们就会收到一封跟进的电子邮件，语气和蔼可亲,说我们是多么宝贵的客户,并鼓励我们继续花钱。
到底哪一个描述是正确的?有麻烦的失败消费者还是宝贵的客户?这两者之间可是天壤之别!3自相矛盾的情况还有,我们每天都收到彼此相左的两种信息。
一种从“纵容”的角度,让我们”买东西,花钱,现在就得到它。
你需要这个!另外一种,我们可称之为“正直”的信息,它力劝我们:“努力工作,把钱存起来。
控制你的欲望，不要买奢侈品，不要垂涎那些你并不真正需要的东西。
”这类信息来源甚多，有学校方面的,有家长方面的;甚至还来自提及传统价值观的政治人物。
艰苦创业,忠于家庭、能推迟欲望是美国价值观的核心，它使我们的国家变得强大。
4但相反的信息,即那些纵容人们不断花钱的广告,无所不在。
虽然此类信息有时经过了乔装打扮,但仍随处可见，电视、电影、印刷媒介和路牌、商店,及公共汽车、火车和地铁上，比比皆是。
广告侵入了我们的日常生活。
我们时时被包围在花钱，花钱，花钱的信息中。
最近有人说: "唯-可以逃脱广告的时候是当在床上睡着时!”5据计算,普通的美国人到18岁时，会看过60万则广告;到40岁时，看过的广告总数近百万。
每个广告都在尽最大努力影响我们形形色色的购买决定——从我们吃的早餐麦片到我们的假期将使用哪条邮轮线路。

全新版大学进阶英语综合教程2第五单元作文The Importance of Lifelong Learning in the Modern EraIn today's rapidly evolving world, the ability to adapt and continuously learn has become increasingly vital for success. As we navigate the complexities of the 21st century, the concept of lifelong learning has emerged as a key driver of personal and professional growth. This essay will explore the significance of lifelong learning and its impact on individuals and society.Firstly, lifelong learning is essential for keeping pace with the constantly changing demands of the job market. The skills and knowledge required for many professions are evolving at an unprecedented rate, driven by technological advancements, globalization, and shifting societal needs. By embracing a mindset of lifelong learning, individuals can stay relevant, competitive, and equipped to tackle the challenges of their respective fields. This not only enhances their career prospects but also enables them to contribute more effectively to their organizations and communities.Moreover, lifelong learning fosters personal development and fulfillment. As we progress through various stages of life, our interests, aspirations, and perspectives often evolve. Engaging in continuous learning allows us to explore new subjects, acquire new skills, and broaden our understanding of the world around us. This process of self-discovery and growth can lead to a greater sense of purpose, increased self-confidence, and the ability to adapt to the changing circumstances that life presents.In addition, lifelong learning plays a crucial role in promoting social and economic progress. When individuals continuously expand their knowledge and skills, they contribute to the overall intellectual capital of a society. This, in turn, drives innovation, problem-solving, and the development of new technologies and solutions that can address pressing global challenges. Ultimately, a society that values and encourages lifelong learning is better equipped to thrive in the face of rapid change and uncertainty.Furthermore, lifelong learning fosters a sense of personal fulfillment and enrichment. The process of acquiring new knowledge and skills can be deeply rewarding, as it allows us to continuously challenge ourselves, explore our passions, and engage in meaningful learning experiences. This can lead to a greater sense of personal satisfaction, a more fulfilling life, and the ability to contribute to the betterment of our communities.In conclusion, the importance of lifelong learning in the modern era cannot be overstated. By embracing a commitment to continuous learning, individuals can enhance their career prospects, foster personal growth, and contribute to the overall progress of society. As we navigate the complexities of the 21st century, the ability to adapt, learn, and evolve will be the key to unlocking our full potential and shaping a brighter future for all.。

I don't know if I have the words to describe it, but I'll try. The modern camp site is really just a collection of barracks that have been slightly reconfigured to present the history of the camp. Each building focused on a separate theme, such as "Everyday Life of the Prisoner," "Living and Sanitary Conditions," and "Extermination." Certain barracks also had themed exhibits for individual countries that had a significant number of citizens sent to the concentration camp.In addition to these museum-style exhibits, Auschwitz also has the very famous entrance gate which has been included in many films, documentaries, and books. However, on the whole, Auschwitz seemed to be nothing more than a very powerful museum about the Holocaust. Birkenau, on the other hand, was more powerful and horrifying than I had imagined it would be.I walked three kilometers between the camps and soon arrived at the famous "Death's Gate" entrancewith the railway tracks leading through. What struck me immediately about the camp was its size.It's monstrously huge! For me, the most disturbing aspect of the camp is that visitors are allowedto wander around the grounds freely. Nothing is off limits.I must say, it felt wrong to be walking around the scenes of so much pain, bloodshed, and cruelty.Still, there were many tourists doing just that. In the farthest reaches of the camp—the placesmost distant from the entrance—it felt almost scary in its silence, emptiness, and loneliness. Surrounded by the relative tranquillity of the modern world, it is hard to believe that this placewas the scene of so much evil.Places like Auschwitz and Birkenau are constant reminders of the inhumanity people are capableof. However, they're also a helpful reminder that life goes on—and so must we—yet our continuinglives must always include memory.41. This passage is best described as _______.A. narrative fictionB. editorial nonfictionC. first-person historyD. personal memoir42. According to the passage, the author found his visit to the concentration camps _______.A. fun and lightheartedB. sad and depressingC. emotional and enlighteningD. boring and unremarkable43. Which of the following quotes best represents the author's final thought?A. Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind.B. Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it.C. Only the dead have seen the end of war.D. Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die.44. With which of these statements would the author of this passage probably agree?A. Important historical sites should be preserved as museums for futureB. Historical sites related to wars should be destroyed because they areC. It is unimportant to remember terrible things that happened in the past.D. Tourism to historical sites tends to erode that place's integrity.45.
