B1U3 Keys to ExercisesWarm-up1.1) stressed 2) identity 3) involved with 4) belong 5) coping with6) feel 7) bind 8) defined 9) supporting 10) beautyScript:The philosopher Plato once said, “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” Music has always been a big part of my life. To create and to perform music connects you to people countries and lifetimes away. It connects you to the people you are playing with, to your audience, and to yourself. When I’m happy, when I’m sad, when I’m bored, when I’m stressed, I listen to and I create music.When I was younger, I played piano; later, I took up guitar. And as I started high school, music became a part of my identity. I was in every band, I was involved with every musical fine arts event. Music surrounded me. It made me who I was, and it gave me a place to belong.When I first arrived at university, I felt lost. It’s like I had been taken out of my natural environment, and put somewhere new, where the rhythms and the harmonies and the form had gone away. And there was just me, silence, and my melody. But then the next moment — I could hear it. And I could feel it. And it was me. And I was here. Music is my way of coping with the changes in my life.There’s a beautiful connection between music and life. It can bind us to reality, at the same time it allows us to escape it. So you see, everything is music. When I look at the world, I see music all around us. When I look at myself, I see music. And my life has been defined by music. I found myself through music. Music is everywhere, and it is in everything. And it changes and it builds and it diminishes. But it’s always there, supporting us, connecting us to each other, and showing us the beauty of the universe. So if you ever feel lost, stop and listen for your song. 2.

The word our indicates that this is a storyof personal experience.2 This indicates that studying for the final exams was not the only concern of thestudents. So it is a transition from studying for final exams to the next topic –getting a job after graduation.3 Because this changes the focus onto the writer as an individual. The we paragraphsare general background to the main narrative about the individual, which is coming.4 This change to direct speech opens a moment-by-moment dialogue. This slows downthe narrative of events but gives a good impression of how the writer found it difficult to say what he wanted to do and how the father made few comments.5 The topic shifts to crabs. The sentence also arouses the readers’ interest – we expectsome fascinating new information about crabs here. Later, we realize how the topic of crabs is connected with the son finding a job, and the crabs’ behaviour leads the father to give memorable advice.6 Yes, we don’t know what happens next, but the implication is fairly clear that thefather would support the son’s idea of travel and of being a writer. It makes a better conclusion not to say it explicitly, as it leaves a lot of room for personalinterpretation.Active reading 2 (P8)2. c, d, b3. 34. 1 triple, 2 cemetery, 3 rear, 4 biography, 5 cram, 6 budding, 7 finite, 8 elapse5. 1 elapsed, cemetery, 2 crammed, 3 triple, 4 budding, biography, 5 finite6. a, b, a, a, b, b, a, a7. a, b, b, a, a, b, b, b, a8.

We never know when death will come to us. Thereaper wears a black hood so you can’t se e his face, and he carries a scythe which represents cutting people down like corn; he brings our last breath.2 This refers to the main body of the story, and the main part of our life, like the meatin a sandwich. The meat is between two pieces of bread; the main content of the story is between the prologue and epilogue.3 This means plans which you have postponed or kept waiting as a low priority, as ifthey are simmering gently but not really cooking on the back part of the cooker.4 This means tomorrow is like a note which has promised a payment of money but bywhich we can’t actually get the cash. It never really comes unless we act now.5 The image is of someone driving a car and looking in the rear-view mirror. They arelooking at their past with lots of regrets about what they could have, should have, or would have done but did not in fact do.6 This means take as much as you can in your life within the limits of what is possible.The image is of filling a salad bowl with as much salad as possible because you only have one chance to serve yourself.7 This image is of a man waiting for a girl who has said she will come but who isn’t5 It wasn’t just that the Grim Reaper was intended to frighten people, but it wasalso a figure of fun.5. 1 settle(a) On the surfaces that aren’t used very often or aren’t cleaned.(b) Yes, it is, because the disagreement i s solved and each p arty is satisied with theoutcome.(c) Nothing, because you have paid everything that is owed.(d) We relax in a comfortable chair and enjoy it.2 smooth(a) No, because the sea is calm.

Reading ComprehensionDirections: Choose the ONE best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Passage OneTo be sure, only children experience some things differently from those with siblings (兄弟姐妹). Many feel more pressure to succeed. In the absence of brothers and sisters, only children also tend to look more exclusively to their parents as role models.In India, 19-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny minority of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to counter the myth that they are irresponsible. “People think we’re pampered (娇养) and spoiled,” says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. “But I’d like to remind them how lonely it can get.”Most only children, however, say they wish for siblings only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britain’s David Emerson, co-author of the book The Only Child, says that such a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable (易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more security. “The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it,” he says. “Ultimately, I am left with that responsibility.”In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasingly the norm (正常现象), many families are finding they simply don’t have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the accusation made against them is unjust.1. It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s attitude towards only children is ____.A.criticalB.objectiveC.hostileD.unjust2. It can be inferred from the passage that only children’s parents should ______.A.found a support group for their only childrenB.do volunteer work to help their only childrenC.let their only children make all the decisions aloneD.set good examples for their only children3. Emerson decided to move his elderly mother to a new house because he ____.A.is the only who cares about herB.doesn’t want to 1eave her aloneC.wants to share the responsibility with herD.is worried about her safety4. It is quite usual now for a working mother to _____.A.spend all her time and money on her only childB.be responsible for bringing up her only childC.have and bring up only one childD.concentrate all her energies on her job5. The main idea of the passage is that ______.A.only children are spoiled and irresponsibleB.only children have to face many challengesC.most only children want to have brothers and sistersD.most only children share their responsibilities with their parentsPassage T woWhen an invention is made, the inventor has three possible courses of action open to him: he can give the invention to the world by publishing it, keep the idea secret, or patent it.A granted patent is the result of a bargain struck between an inventor and the state, by which the inventor gets a limited period of monopoly (垄断) and publishes full details of his invention to the public after that period terminates.Only in the most exceptional circumstances is the life span of a patent extended to alter this normal process of events.The longest extension ever granted was to Georges V alensi; his 1939 patent for color TV receiver circuit was extended until 1971 because for most of the patent’s normal life there was no color TV to receive and thus no hope of reward for the invention.Because a patent remains permanently public after it has terminated, the shelves of the library attached to the patent office to use and, if older than half a century, sometimes even re-patent. Indeed, patent experts often advise anyone wishing to avoid the high coat of conduction a search through live patents that the one sure way of avoiding violation of any other inventor's right is to plagiarize a dead patent. Likewise, because publication of an idea in any other form permanently invalidates further patents on that idea, it is traditionally safe to take ideas from other areas of print. Much modern technological advance is based on these presumptions of legal security.Anyone closely involved in patents and inventions soon learns that most “new” ideas are, in fact, as old as the hills. It is their reduction to commercial practice, either through necessity or dedication, or through the availability of new technology, that makes news and money. The basi c patent for the theory of magnetic recording dates back to 1886. Many of the original ideas behind television originate from the late 19th and early 20th century. Even the V olkswagen rear engine car was anticipated by a 1904 patent for a cart with the horse at the rear.6. The passage is mainly about _________.A.an approach to patentsB.the application for patentsC.the use of patentsD.the access to patents7. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.When a patent becomes out of effect, it can be re-patented or extended if' necessary.B.It is necessary for an inventor to apply for a patent before he makes his invention public.C.A patent holder must publicize the details of his invention when its legal period is over.D.One can get all the details of a patented invention from a library attached to the patentoffice.8. Georges V alensi’s patent lasted until 1971 because _________.A.nobody would offer any reward for his patent prior to that timeB.his patent could not be put to use for an unusually long timeC.there were not enough TV stations to provide color programsD.the color TV’ receiver was not available until that time9. The word “plagiarize” most probably means _________.A.steal and useB.give reward toC.make publicD.take and change10. From the passage we learn that _________.A.an invention will not benefit the inventor unless it is reduced to commercial practiceB.products are actually inventions which were made a long time agoC.it is much-cheaper to buy an old patent than a new oneD.patent experts often recommend patents to others by conducting a search through deadpatentsPassage ThreeMost people feel lonely sometimes but it usually lasts only between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Psychologists are studying this complex phenomenon in an attempt to better understand long-term loneliness. These researchers have already identified three different types of loneliness.The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a particular situation, for example, a divorce, the death of a loved one or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches andsleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. Situational loneliness is easy to understand and to predict.The third kind is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic (慢性的) loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person’s social contacts, i.e. friends, family members, coworkers, etc. We depend on various people for different reasons. However, psychologists have found that the number of social contacts we have is not the only reason for loneliness. It is more important how many social contacts we think or expect we should have. In other words, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more.Most researchers agree that the loneliest people are between the ages of 18 and 25. They found that more than 50 percent of the college freshmen were situationally lonely at the beginning of the semester, but had adjusted after a few months. Thirteen percent were still lonely after seven months due to shyness and fear. They felt very uncomfortable meeting new people, even though they understood that their fear was not rational. The situationally lonely freshmen overcame their loneliness by making new friends, but the chronically lonely people remained unhappy because they were afraid to do so.Psychologists are trying to find ways lo help habitually lonely people for two reasons. First of all, they are unhappy and unable to socialize. Secondly, researchers have found a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illnesses such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of man, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.11. What is the main idea of this passage?A.There are three different kinds of loneliness.B.Chronic loneliness is the most severe kind.C.Researchers want to cure loneliness.D.There is some difference between being alone and being lonely.12. Lonely people have social contacts _________.A.because they can ask for helpB.until they produce good healthC.but they think they do not have enoughD.and therefore they can get emotional support from their friends13. Situational loneliness has made it possible for people ________.A.to adjust to the new circumstancesB.to cause sleeplessness and headachesC.to understand that their shyness can not be got hold ofD.to keep fit14. “The situationally lonely freshmen overcame their loneliness” probably means .A.they accepted their lonelinessB.they were no longer lonelyC.they made new friendsD.they improve their condition15. What does “to do so” (Para. 5) mean?A.To predict situational lonelinessB.To have physical problemsC.To question popularityD.To make new friendsPassage FourI’ve been struck, living in Silicon V alley (硅谷) and spending time in other high-tech regions, by how each region can be analyzed with respect to the quality and diversity (多样性) of its knowledge producers and knowledge consumers.The classic way to view knowledge production in a region is to list all the educational institutions one can think of — universities and colleges, schools, libraries, museums, civic (城市的) centers —and to see these as the region’s producers of knowledge, with the region’s citizens, students, firms, government, and voluntary organizations as their consumers.But in most regions I visit today, there is a rich interaction between the knowledge producers and knowledge consumers.If the region is geographically compressed enough, you start to get all kinds of informal, face-to-face connections between knowledge producers and consumers —students work part-time in surrounding firms, new firms spin out of universities, employees are retrained on campus, different people go to different public gathering places, and so on. In the 1970s and 1980 we were absorbed with science parks; in the 1990s, all these connections produce what I think of as learning parks. Such learning parks bring increasingly rich intellectual and educational opportunities to their region.If top-quality schools and universities once invested money in science parks, we now see learning parks pushing resources the other way. In the relation between leading-edge (前沿) firms and universities, for example, the firms increasingly provide adjunct (临时的) professors, guest lecturers, internships (实习期) for students, vacations for faculty, and workplace experiences for scholars of all ages. So the traditional producers of knowledge (the faculty) are also becoming consumers of the knowledge that their traditional consumers (graduate students, firms in the region) produce. This is very healthy indeed.16. The author has noticed how to look at a place in terms of ______.A.the quality and diversity of its servicesB.its rich intellectual and educational opportunitiesC.knowledge production and consumptionD.investment in educational institutions17. Educational institutions in a region inc lude not only universities and colleges but also ____.A.high-tech companiesB.firms, government and organizationsC.science parks and learning parksD.libraries, museums and civic centers18. In the passage the word “park” most probably means ______.A. a piece of land in a town for public recreationB. a group of buildings housing related enterprisesC. a piece of country kept in its natural conditionD.an enclosed area of grassland attached to a large country house19. Learning parks are now helping universities by ______.A.hiring adjunct professors in leading firmsB.establishing business relations with surrounding firmsC.allowing scholars to work in leading-edge firmsD.retraining employees on campus20. The traditional producers of knowledge are those who ______.A.teach full time in a college or universityB.work in leading-edge firmsC.pursue graduate studies in a college or universityD.teach temporari1y at a college or universityV.

课后练习答案:《全新版大学英语》第三册(综合教程第二版)Unit 1 Changes in the way we liveV ocabulary1.1) on balance 2) resist 3) haul 4) wicked5) illustrated 6) budget 7) lowering 8) boundary 9) involved 10) economic 11) blasting 12) just aboutCloze:Jim Doherty may not be a born farmer, but he gets by without too much trouble. Not that he has had it easy. That first hard winter he faced must have left him with the temptation to give up and go back to the city. But he managed to get through it without losing heart. He’s picked up a lot of skills since then and made some real improvements to his farm, though without much laborsaving machinery, aside from that old rotary cultivator. I suspect he doesn’t make all that much, though he does have his writing to supplement what little profit he makes from the farm. I guess he does it primarily from the quality of life. Certainly, they seem a happy family and you can often see them out working together, one day spraying apple trees, the next stacking firewood.Translation:A decade ago, Nancy did what so many Americans dream about. She quit an executive position and opened/ set up a household device store in her neighborhood. People like Nancy made the decision primarily for the improvement in the quality of their lives.But, to run a small business on a small scale is by no means an easy job. Without her steady income, Nancy had to cut back on her daily expense. Sometimes she did not even have the money to pay the premium for the various kinds of insurance she needed.Fortunately, through her own hard work, she has now got through the most difficult time. She is determined to continue pursuing her vision of a better life.Unit 2 Civil Rights HeroesText A Freedom GiversV ocabulary1) decades 2) historic 3) imposed 4) religious 5) slender 6) web 7) bade 8) site 9) on the side 10) authorized 11) terminal 12) make the best of Cloze:The Underground Railroad was forged by the efforts of those who were prepared to fight against slavery and stand up for the long-suffering Southern black Americans. Some of those who helped to transport slaves to the north and freedom were former slaves themselves. Others felt compelled to take part because of their deeply held convictions. For many of those involved, liberating the slaves from those exploited them became a mission. While their eventual goal was to abolish slavery completely, in the meantime they were intent on helping to free as many as slaves as possible, often at considerable risk. In the eyes of slave owners, they were dangerous enemies and frequently received death threats.Translation:Shortly after he achieved freedom Henson became intent on assisting fugitive slaves. He secretly returned to the United States from Canada several times to help others to travel the Underground Railroad to freedom. Once some slave catchers closed in on the escaping slaves and Henson when they were on the run. He disguised them and successfully avoided capture. Later he built a small settlement in Dresden in Canada for escaped slaves, setting up a chapel and a school. He held to the conviction that slavery would be abolished, and the day was bound to come when racial discrimination no longer existed.Unit 3 SecurityText A The Land of The LockV ocabulary1.1) threatens 2) by a small margin 3)civilize 4)closed up 5)wandered 6) paste 7) without so much as 8) sideways 9) hook up to 10) universal 11) chart 12) Bathed inCloze:Statistics show that crime in rural areas is now rising faster than in the cities. The ear when the countryside stood for safety and security has long gone. No longer is it safe anywhere to go out leaving the door on the latch. We all feel vulnerable and seek to strengthen the barriers we use to hold criminals at bay. These can range from old fashioned bolts and bars to the latest electronic devices. A moment’s reflection, however, is enough to bring us face with the following puzzle: we may have locked the evils out, but in doing so we have locked ourselves in. this hardly seems a civilized way of life.Translation:It is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out. All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes. Thus exposing him to police patrols. Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity. A light should be fixed in the doorway and switched on at night. Make sure/Assure yourself that you don't leave the door onthe latch if you happen to be the last to come in. If you decide to buy a sophisticated electronic alarm system, be sure to ask for its signs and put them up on both windows and doors. In addition you may have it hooked up to a police station.Unit 4 Imagination and CreativityText A Was Einstein a Space Alien?V ocabulary1.1) accordingly 2) loose 3) concentration 4)stimulating 5) fabric 6)if anything 7) reality 8) intuition 9) trifle10) at the turn of the century 11) mess 12) undermineCloze:Einstein’s teacher should have had a little more caution before he came to he conclusion that his pupil would never get anywhere in life. Probably he was irritated by the thought that the young Einstein was undermining his position. And certainly it is true that Einstein did not give/care a fig for authority. However, far from being a flaw in Einstein’s character, this proved, beyond any doubt, to be one of his greatest strengths. It was on this foundation, combined with the remarkable/impressive power of his imagination, that his great achievements were built.Translation:What was remarkable about 2005 was perhaps that the UN declared it "The World Year of Physics". It was the 100th anniversary of Einstein's theory of relativity and the 50th anniversary of his death. In 1905 Einstein published five highly important essays in the history of science, thus revolutionizing physics. His great achievements can be credited to his impressive powers of imagination, constant questioning, and not giving a fig for authority. It is beyond doubt that Einstein was the greatest scientist in the 20th century.Unit 5 Giving ThanksText A Writing Three Thank-You LettersV ocabulary1) sprinkled 2) in turn 3) reversed 4) repay 5) at sea6) traditional 7) statement 8) longed for 9) in secret 10) unloaded11) weep 12) under wayCloze:Alex Haley was at sea when he started thinking how best he could mark Thanksgiving. Turning over the meaning of the holiday in his mind, he came to reverse the order of the words and got to thinking about giving thanks. How, he wondered, could be repaythose who had been so helpful to him in the past? It seemed to him that the best way he could express his gratitude would be to write to them. For too long he had gone about without troubling to tell them how much he appreciated all that they had done for him. Before long he had assembled pen and paper and was immersed in writing. Not long after the ship reached port, people started unloading its cargo together with his letters. The replies were not swift in arriving, but when they did, he found them deeply moving.Translation:Amid the atmosphere of Thanksgiving, rather than joining his friends in celebration of the holiday, George was immersed in the diary left to him by his father, who died at sea after he completed two successive trips around the world. The diary brought back every moment George had spent with his father and many of the specific things his father did on his behalf. George's father used to impress on him the need to undergo all kinds of hardship in quest of excellence. He also taught him that nothing in the world could be taken for granted. Even today, George still remembers how his father would quote Aesop's famous saying "Gratitude is the sign of noble souls" and tell him to accord the greatest importance to it.Unit 6 The Human TouchText A The Last LeafI. V ocabulary:i)1. masterpieces2. fragile3. fancy4. nonsense5. cling to6. endure7. acute8. whistle9. mock 10. subtracted 11. Sin 12. flutter/flutteringCloze:I had only known Johnsy a few months when she fell victim to the disease. We had met in May and, finding ourselves so much in tune, had set up home together. Then, in November, she became ill. Scarcely able to speak in a whisper, she seemed unable to cling to life. It was such a change. Before she had always been so lively and merry. Now she just sat up in bed, staring out of the window. She had this strange belief that once the last leaf on the vine outside fell, she would die. I told her it was all nonsense, but to no effect.It was our downstairs neighbor, Mr.Behrman, who came to her rescue. When he heard of Johnsy’s strange fancy he flew into a fierce temper, regarding it as a sin that one so young should give up life so easily.Thanks to Behrman, the last leaf never did fall. Late at night he had climbed up and painted the leaf on the wall. It was his long-promised masterpiece.Translation:Here and there we see young artists who stand out from other people. They may be in worn-out jeans all the year round, or walk barefoot / in bare feet even in winter, or drink to excess, or cling to the fancy of creating a masterpiece without actually doing any creative work. In fact, many of them act like this just to look the part, or to be in tune with other artists. They have forgotten that only through persistent effort can one achieve success.。

Reading comprehension(阅读理解)A. Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案,用A,B,C或D表示)My four-year-old daughter's first trip abroad could open her eyes to different cultures, music, food and ways of living. Perhaps we’d head to England, or I could take her to Mexico, where I spent a lot of my time while growing up in San Diego. Or we could head to France or Belgium, where we have cousins. Even if my daughter understood the language, she might see for the first time that people live differently than we do. While I had been thinking about where to go, spring break in Costa Rica fell into my lap.My child had to get extra changes. Here’s what I learned ——through trial and error——about makingthe leap into international travel with kids:Pick a country where your child will have some new and familiar experiencesAny trip abroad is going to be huge change for a small child. So I would like to pick a country where I know people or speak the language.My neighbors who are living with their 10-year-old son on a university campus in Costa Risa for the spring semester, invited us to visit for the week. So, having another child built into the trip was essential for my child and she can spend a great time playing with her neighborhood pal.Unless your children can go all day at home, book some time for everyone to relaxWith sm all children, it’s a terrible mistake to overbook unless your child is energetic enough. We were not going to take a seven-day backpacking trip through the Amazon. My daughter still gets an afternoon nap, so I knew she would likely a tablet loaded with epi sodes of “Blue’s Clues” and “Super WHY!” for the airplane and breaks. I also didn’t have a set agenda.Know your childKnowing your child’s strengths and weakness will help you on your trip, even as you teach them to go outside their comfort zones.My chil d loves to learn new things (like “Where’s the bathroom?”in Spanish) and does fine with a flexible schedule. She can pretty quickly regroup and decide to have fun doing a new thing. But she doesn’t do so well if she doesn’t eat a good protein snack. That’s why I packed healthy snacks and bought more.Plan a few grown-up eventsNo child I know wants to go on a coffee tour, but the grown-ups in our party like their caffeine. So off we went. Children need to see their parents doing something for themselves on a trip or they’ll think vacation (and life)is all about themselves. Teaching them to think about others is a good thing. I simply told her that we would also do fun staff for grown-ups and that complaining would send her into timeout. Luckily, it worked. By the end of the tour, she had gotten into the banana trees scattered about the plantation and the chocolate-covered fruit candy at the company store. She high-fived out tour guide at the end.Eat like a localThe local version of some food was really fresh and delicious.How did our trip turn out?As I was packing my luggage on our last morning there, my daughter said quietly, “I don’t want to leave.”“That’s the sign of a good vacation,” I replied. “Let’s come back some day.”60. The writer probably spent her children in _______.A.EnglandB. San DiegoC. FranceD. Belgium61.
