read more books英语作文

read more books英语作文English:Reading more books is not only a way to gain knowledge but also a means of expanding our imagination and creativity. Books allow us to delve into different worlds, travel through time, and experience diverse cultures without leaving our seats. The words on the page can spark new ideas, challenge our perspectives, and inspire us to think critically. Furthermore, reading regularly can improve our language skills, broadening our vocabulary and enhancing our writing abilities. By immersing ourselves in books, we can also develop empathy and understanding for others, as we see the world through various characters' eyes. In a fast-paced world dominated by technology, reading provides a peaceful escape and a chance for introspection. Therefore, it is crucial to prioritize reading in our daily lives, setting aside time to explore different genres and authors, and allowing ourselves to be swept away by the magic of storytelling.中文翻译:阅读更多的书不仅是获取知识的一种方式,也是扩展我们想象力和创造力的手段。

Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules.2. The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described in a brief account ; however, what the student could do was single utterance : 〃whoa!〃 without any specific comment.3. Because the schools fail to set high standards of proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language.4. Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it's not properly dealt with.5. He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs.6. Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before.7. The author uses 〃road map ,z and 〃cax〃 to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here, 〃road map ,z is considered as grammar and 〃cax〃 as vocabulary.8. Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection 〃whoa!〃 reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author's humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in twodifferent situations and with two different feelings.(2)1.•Motivation.2.English grammar helps a lot in the following:3.•Use more communicative ways.4.•Read more English from online sources.5.•Read English newspapers,magazines,and books.1. 3.1Word in use1.condense,2.exceed,3.deficit,4.exposure,5.asset,6.adequate,petent,8.adjusting,9.precisely,10.beneficial1.3.2Word building:Practice(1)1)managerial,2)editorial,3)substance,4)survival,5)tradition,6)margin,7)consistency,8)accuracy,9)efficient,10)recovery,11)ministry,12)assembly(2)I.editorial,2.recovery,3.accuracy,4.substance,5.managerial,6.margin,7.assembly,8.Ministry,9.survival,10.tradition,II.consistency,12.efficient1. 3.4Banked cloze1)obliged,2)tedious,3)beneficial,4)abundant,5)adjusted,6)bulk,7)evidently,8)functions,9)efficiently,10)distress1. 3.5Expressions in use1.feel obliged to,2.be serious about,3.run into,4.distinguish between,5.thrust upon,6.was allergic to,7.get lost,8.be attracted to,9.make sense,10.looked upon as1. 4.1Structured writing:PracticeSome bookworms in my dormitory often spend hours reading their 〃Bible〃,Practical English Grammar,and do a lot of exercises in that book,but I don,t care about it at all.My assumption is since I have never learned Chinese grammar,what's the sense of learning English grammar?In fact,English grammar has always been a big headache to me.English grammar is very complicated because,unlike Chinese, there are many verb tenses.Even stranger than verb tenses,English grammar also contains something very confusing.For example,I don,t remember how many times my middle school teacher tried to〃impose〃the differences between used to and be used to on us.Sometimes he would go on with the explanation for20minutes or so.He even summarized the differences by listing three or four points for us to memorize.However,they could never stay in my head.I don,t remember how many times I got it wrong with the sentences containing used to or be used to on my exams.I was really confused with these two phrases, and I can never get them right.In brief,I'm allergic to learning English grammar.Curiously,I just wonder if the native speakers of English have a microcomputer in their brain to help them utter the two phrases promptly with just a click of their brain mouse!⑴人们普遍认为英语是一种世界语言,经常被许多不以英语为第一语言的国家使用。

新视野大学英语读写教程第二册(第二版)Pre-reading听力原文
新视野大学英语读写教程第二册(第二版)Pre-reading听力原文Unit 1 第一单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesTime is the same in all places, but people’s relationship with time is different from country to country. In the United States, time is a real, precious resource, and every minute counts. People here are always in a rush and under pressure. There are no short conversations or small exchanges with strangers because people think it is a waste of time. Does this sound like your country? If it does not, and if you don’t think you would like such a place, you would most likely be unhappy in the United States, where doing things quickly is seen as a skill.1. Time.2. Short conversations or small exchanges with strangers.3. (Open-ended.)Unit 2 第二单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesWhen I think back about the many people who have influenced me during my life, I often think of one person who showed his passion through his commitment to my success. I think of my coach, the man who taught and inspired me not only how to run the mile as fast as I could, but also how to work at something a little every day until greatness is achieved. Through his continuous efforts, I gradually came to an understanding of the meaning of commitment, which is really what love is all about.1. Her coach.2. How to run the mile as fast as she could and how to work at something a little every day until greatness is achieved.3. (Open-ended.)Unit 3 第三单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesGail and Mark were from different cultural and racial background. They had been together for two years and had learned to understand and respect each other. Recently they decided to marry and they told the news to Gail’s parents. To their surprise, they met with some resistance. Gail’s mother was worried that they might be ma rrying for the wrong reasons and advised her daughter to wait. Gail’s father also opposed the marriage because he thought that Mark was marrying his daughter so that he could remain in the United States. Such concerns are understandable. After all, marriage across nations may have its problem of one kind or another.1. Gail’s mother was worried that they might be marrying for the wrong reason.2. Mark wanted to marry Gail so that he could remain in the United States.3. (Open-ended.)Unit 4 第四单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesI wrote a story about love, and I hope you like it. The story is about a young soldier who is waiting to see a woman he has fallen in love with. I suppose it’s a lot like my other stories in that it has a happy ending. Y ou might laugh at me for writing stories that are so sweet. But, you see, I am a deep believer in love, and I am hopeful about everyone finding it. Without love, I really don’t know what the purpose of living would be.4. He is waiting to see a woman he has fallen in love with.5. A happy ending.6. (Open-ended.)Unit 5第五单元SECTION A Pre-reading ActivitiesToday, I want to talk about the historic opportunity we now have to protect our children from an even more deadly threat: smoking. Smoking kills more people every day than AIDS, alcohol, car accidents, murders, drugs and fires combined. Nearly 90% percent of those smokers lit their first cigarette before they turned 18. In the past few years we’ve worked to stop our children from smoking before they start, to red uce their access to tobacco products, andto restrict tobacco companies from advertising to young people.

For some it may simply because they come across a name that they feel is “it”. But for most people it may be a process of careful selection based on meaning, tradition, or parents’ wishes for their child. Whatever the naming method, a given name follow s the child throughout his or her life.How can parents decide on a name that will satisfy them? Consider the following: First, consider the area the child will grow up in when selecting a name. Second, choose a name based on some personal meaning so when the child asks why they’re named so, the parents will have a reasonable explanation. Finally, before deciding on a name, get opinions of people around!

But you can control stress which is caused by fear, uncertainty, doubt, and lack of control. Anger may also be the root of this stress, especially for hard-working professional women and people with no goals in life. To relax and take control of your life, try the NICE factors: new, interesting, challenging experiences.

Reading More翻译Unit1Why Do We Work?律师们从事的是一项要求很高又费神的职业。
他们期待优厚的报酬。
在思考这句话的含义时,考虑一下这个基本问题会对我们有所帮助:“我们为什么工作?”塞缪尔·约翰逊在他的著名论断“除了笨蛋没有人会写作,除非为了钱。
”中显然给出了答案。
但我写这篇文章时并没有人付我钱。
,而且我非但不会把自己当作傻瓜,还想引用一下著名的心理学家西奥多·赖克的深刻见解:“工作和爱——这是基本需求。
没有这两样,人就会得神经官能症。
”我们为什么工作?为钱,也为有明智的头脑。
我们期待并且需要以非货币的方式获得回报,非经济报酬对一流的律师们来说很重要——要不然,他们早就跑到投资银行去了。
律师事务所如果要招募并挽留住最好的(也是最有头脑的)律师的话,就必须不仅仅以美元的方式,而且还要以精神满足的方式支付报酬。
相应地,一流律师事务所的经理们需要认真地考虑,除了钱律师们还在寻找什么。
以下是非经济报酬的一些关键因素。
职业认同感许多律师从行业的特权和性质来诠释他们自己。
当律师事务所认可了他们的职业特权时,便提供了一种重要的补偿方式。
例如,律师们以属于一个学识渊博的行业而引以为豪。
通过提供进一步增长知识的机会,律师事务所能够在提供一种回报方式的同时加强行业的核心价值。
做到这一点并不难,组织并主办由最好的学者主讲的研讨班,利用诸如研究援助等资源提供内部奖学金,并为律师们提供进行严肃讨论的场所。
另一个核心行业价值是自主性。
当一个律师事务所理解并接受了在职业性判断这样的事情上律师们是自己的主人,它就是在支付精神报酬。
从这个意义上说,律师事务所应该鼓励以多样化的方式让每位律师形成自己的行事风格。
以此种方式授权律师既强调了一种高度的个人责任感,又反过来加强了个人追求卓越的驱动力。
与职业自主性同样重要的是,律师事务所需要注意不要干涉律师运用他们经过深思熟虑的职业判断,即便那意味着拒绝客户。
