新視野大學英語(第三版)第二冊讀寫教程課后答案 Unit 1 Language in mission Text A An impressive English lesson Ex.1 Understanding the text
1、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 at least in a brief account;however, what the student could do was only one single utterance :“whoa!” without any any specific comment.3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency.They only teach a little grammar and less advanced 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”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary.Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”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 two different situations and with two different feelings.Ex.3 Words in use 1.condense 2.exceed 3.deficit 4.exposure 5.asset 6.adequate 7.competent 8.adjusting 9.precisely 10.beneficial Ex.4 Word building-al/-ial: managerial/editorial/substance/survival/tradition/margin-cy : consistency/accuracy/efficient-y : recovery/ministry/assembly Ex.5 Word building 1.editorial 2.recovery 3.accuracy 4.substance 5.managerial 6.margin 7.assembly 8.Ministry 9.survival 10.tradition 11.consistency 12.efficient Ex.6 Banked cloze 1-5: L C J A I 6-10: O N E H F Ex.7 Expressions in use 1.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 as Ex.8 Structured writing Some 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 for 20 minutes 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!Ex.9 E-C Translation 人們普遍認為英語是一種世界語言,經常被許多不以英語為第一語言的國家使用。與其他語言一樣,英語也發生了很大的變化。英語的歷史可以分為三個主要階段:古英語,中古英語和現代英語。英語起源于公元5世紀,當時三個日耳曼部落入侵英國,他們對英語語言的形成起了很大的作用。在中世紀和現代社會初期,英語的影響遍及不列顛群島。從17世紀初,它的影響力開始在世界各地顯現。歐洲幾百年的探險和殖民過程導致了英語的重大變化。今天,由于美國電影、電視、音樂、貿易和技術、包括互聯網的大受歡迎,美國英語的影響力尤其顯著。
Ex.10 C-E Translation Chinese calligraphy is a unique art and the unique art treasure in the world.The formation and development of the Chinese calligraphy is closely related to the emergence and evolution of Chinese characters.In this long evolutionary process, Chinese characters have not only played an important role in exchanging ideas and transmitting culture but also developed into a unique art form.Calligraphic works well reflect calligraphers’ personal feelings, knowledge, self-cultivation, personality, and so forth, thus there is an expression that “seeing the calligrapher’s handwriting is like seeing the person”.As one of the treasures of Chinese culture, Chinese calligraphy shines splendidly in the world’s treasure house of culture and art.Text B The great journey of learning 2.Understanding the text D.2.A 3.C 4.A 5.C 6.B 7.C 8.D 4.Words in use mysterious 2.desperate 3.devise 4.negotiate 5.recalled 6.specifically 7.depict 8.Ignorance 9.Expand 10 confusion 5.Expressions in use apply to 2.in a bid to 3.end up 4.speaking of 5.get hold of 6.appealed to 7.leaving..behind 8.focus on EX.6 Sentence structure.even though it is important of the students to have a deep understanding of the texts, it doesn’t make any sense to read texts word for word from the beginning to the end as it is a matter of little importance to us, it doesn’t make much sense to argue out which is wrong or right or which is better or worse it makes no sense to compel children to obey their parents;instead, we should try to tell them what is right and what is wrong.EX.7.II might as well have stayed at home.We might as well have taken the train home So he might as well have told me all about it.Collocation: Warm-up essential framework 2.distinctive difference 3 high standards 4 valuable possessions 5 considerable frustration 6 acquire knowledge 7 overcome deficiencies 8 sketch thoughts 9 devise a scheme Ex.8 1 essential framework 2 proper vocabulary 3 excellent control 4 language deficit 5 high standards 6 language proficiency 7 acquire knowledge 8 competent communication 9 overcome deficiencies 10 sketch thoughts 11 effective communication 12 advanced vocabulary Unit 2 College-The ladder to success Text A The humanities:Out of date? Reading Comprehension 1.because English or history majors are considered less competitive when the job market is shrinking, and they have to study something that can help them more easily locate their future jobs.2.because as the tuition is climbing higher and higher, many students have run away from studying the humanities and toward “hard” skills that they think will lead to employment.3.since more students are now taking job-oriented courses, libraries, where students of liberal arts used to study, are getting less popular than before;in contrast, labs are getting more eye-catching because students of science and engineering do experiments and research there.4.because this inner drive that can be either constructive or destructive is so mysterious and powerful that it has attracted many people to speculate on it.From ancient times, these men and women developed artistic “languages” in the form of story, music, myth, painting, architecture, sculpture, landscape and traditions, which from the very foundation of civilization.5.Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write, makes you familiar with the language of emotion and the creative process, and, more importantly, provides you with a wide scope of possibilities that are open to you.6.Because in modern life, an ideal capacity for establishing one’s career is to have both technical knowledge and inner insight, not just one without the other.7.“Well-rounded human beings” are those who have insight and understand the passions, hopes and dreams common to all humanity.8.Since many people who once studied the humanities became famous in their career, the author implies that if students spend more time studying the humanities, they could surely become successful in the future as well.Language focus 3 1.promotes 2.accelerate 3.mystery 4.insight 5.boost 6.analysis 7.calculate 8.barriers 9.destruction 10.prospect 4 Promising Bearing Housing Objective Offend Exclude Excess Execute Intensify Identity 5 1.excess 2.bearing 3.objective 4.intensify 5.execute 6.promising 7.exclude 8.identity 9 offend 10.housing 6.1-5 CHDJB 6-10 LMGFA 7 1.are liable to 2.in favor of 3.is bound to 4.speculate about 5.invested…with 6.stand up for 7.in the form of 8.prepared for 9.in the company of 10 in succession 9 幕課是一種網絡課程,它旨在通過網絡實現廣泛參與和開放接入。幕課是遠程教育邁出的最新一步,現已在高等教育領域迅速引領潮流。通過這些課程,大學可以擴大影響的范圍,從影響成千上萬住在城里付學費的學生,擴展到惠及全球上百萬的學生。除了擁有傳統的課程資料,幕課還給使用者提供互動論壇,支持學生和講師之間的交流。幕課能促進參與者之間的交流,使得多種觀點、知識和技能涌現到課堂上來;它鼓勵人們嘗試之前不可能嘗試的課程,甚至是嘗試新的教育方式;它提供多種學習課程資料的方式,鼓勵多模式學習,以各種學習風格滿足學習者的需求;另外,幕課促進教學的改善,使技術在面對面授課中得以更好地應用。10 In recent years, with the development of Internet technology, the construction of digital education resources of our country has made great achievements.Many universities have set up their own digital learning platforms, and digital teaching is playing an increasingly important role in education.Compared with the traditional way of teaching, the digital way has a lot of advantages.On one hand, digital teaching makes global sharing of teaching resources possible;on the other hand, it expands the learner’s study time and space to learn, allowing people to get access to the digital virtual schools through the Internet anytime and anywhere.These advantages make it possible for people to shift from one-time learning to lifelong learning.Unit 2 TextB What college bring us?

Ex.1 1.Because people in different life stages are confronted with different problems and setbacks and each group of people in a particular time period have their particular worries and pains.2.The norm refers to the general consensus that as soon as students graduated from college, they would enter adulthood and be able to find an ideal job leading to their career.3.They are recognized as a new life stage that comes after high school graduation, continues through college and leads to starting a family and having a career.4.Because nowadays so many young people are following this new lifestyle that it has become a trend.As long as the economic situation continues its long slide, this new stage is unavoidable.5.Unlike their parents, a large number of young people are now delaying marriage, child bearing, and even employment during their odyssey years.6.They often resent the pressure they’re feeling and keep a distance from their parents or even run away from home.Many also resort to computer games, iPods, iPhones, or iPads.7.Their parents feel more anxious and upset seeing their children’s odyssey years continue to stretch without a clear direction.8.The author thinks as people are getting to know the odyssey years better, both parents and their children can tackle this phase better.For parents, they can understand their children more;for children, they can explore and discover themselves with a positive attitude.Ex.3 1.peculiar 2.radical 3.phase 4.sensible 5.predict 6.labeled 7.resent 8.witnessed 9.equivalent 10.parallels Ex.4-ic Chaotic dramatic academy-ion Depression detection erosion Classification confuse cooperate dictate-ist Rightist journal Ex.5 1.journal 2.chaotic 3.cooperate 4.erosion 5.dramatic 6.confuse 7.academy 8.rightists 9.depression 10.dictate 11.detection 12.classification Ex.6 K E A C L I G N H O Ex.7 1.saddled with 2.back off 3.gives way to 4.resorted to 5.make allowances for 6.wonder at 7.prior to 8.based upon/on Ex.8 The odyssey years are certainly a very complicated phase of life for young people.Not only do these young people need to overcome many difficulties, they also have to face many challenges from their parents.The differences between parents and children can be well observed in their completely different attitudes and views.First, they differ in their attitude toward life.Parents always wonder what has gone wrong with the new generation.They feel that during their time, young boys and girls were better behaved, more obedient and had greater respect for elders.Young people, on the other hand, feel that they are capable enough to learn on their own rather than lean heavily on the older generation for guidance.Young people do not like to be spoon-fed by their parents.The differences also appear in the way the two generations look at things.For example, the parents’ generation never understood Elvis and the Beatles.Because they couldn’t understand what was going on, they were frequently opposed to them and saw rock as “the devil’s music”.Young people, however, are crazy about the modern music and would love to listen to it for a hundred times a day.Wherever they go, they’ll have their iPod with them.In conclusion, it’s very difficult for parents and their youngsters to get along due to their distinctive attitudes and the way they view things.To fill this gap, both parents and their grown children need to be more understanding to each other.Ex.9 作為美國文化價值體系的一個重要組成部分,“個人主義”受到大多數美國人的推崇。美國人認為家庭作為一個群體,其主要目的是促進家庭各成員的幸福。
與許多其他文化相比,美國家庭成員的主要職責,不是在社會上或經濟上提高整個家庭的地位。人們通常認為,什么是對個人最好的要比什么是對家庭最好的更為重要。與自由相伴而來的是照顧自己的責任,因為所選擇的自由承載了責任,即必須接受自己的選擇所帶來的后果。許多美國人給他們的孩子很多的自由,因為他們希望孩子們能夠獨立和自力更生。在美國人強調個人自由的同時,父母與孩子間平等的信念也對美國家庭產生了巨大的影響。Ex.10 Filial piety is the basic code of ethics in the ancient Chinese society.Chinese people consider filial piety as the essence of a person’s integrity, family harmony, and the nation’s well-being.With filial piety being the core of Confucian ethics, it has been the moral standard for the Chinese society to maintain the family relationship for thousands of years.It’s undoubtedly a traditional Chinese virtue.The culture of filial piety is a complex concept, rich in content and wide in range.It concludes not only cultural ideas but also institutional etiquettes.Generally speaking, it refers to the obligation of children to their parents required by the society, including respect, care, support for the elderly and so forth.Filial piety is fundamental to the ancient “Oriental civilization”.Unit 3 Text B Finding my way back home Understanding the text 2 1.A 2.C 3.D 4.A 5.B 6.D 7.D 8.C Words in use 4 1.hollow 2.restless 3.demonstrate 4.exiled 5.miserable 6.commercial

story.She didn’t expect that she would end up marrying Butch.He became her boyfriend just because of her wish to find a cute boyfriend.She didn’t really want to marry him at the beginning.2.Because when she met up with Butch the first time, he kept staring at her all night long.He flattered her and fell in love with her at first sight.He looked really wild or maybe even dangerous.3.Because Butch had a “bad boy image” which was very tempting to a lot of girls, and his wild, dynamic personality was a little frightening.She didn’t know whether she could be getting along with him.4.Though she always had an excellent reputation in respect to her schoolwork, she thought that her college life was dull, with no fun.In her opinion, college was supposed to be a time of great learning and also of some fun.5.Because she was becoming more interested in him and she wanted to find out if she was the “right” date in the eyes of Butch, thinking of herself as a traditional girl.6.It means that Butch didn’t want to do anything to change his bad situation.The word fate here refers to the fact that Butch was going to be expelled from the university.7.Though Butch was wild and would sometimes display directly his love in front of her friends, he was always a perfect gentleman at his core.And they had a pure and responsible relationship for seven years.8.The author and her husband’s faithful

美國和歐洲各國都會慶祝2月14日的情人節。這是一個充滿愛情和浪漫的節日,戀人之間通常都會交換情人卡和愛情信物。關于這個節日的起源有著不同的說法。一個傳說是羅馬人把一個叫圣瓦倫丁的神父關進了監獄,因為他拒絕相信羅馬神。2月14日那天,瓦倫丁被處死,不僅因為他是基督徒,而且因為他曾治愈了一位監獄看守雙目失明的女兒。他在被處死的前一晚上給她寫了一封署名“你的瓦倫丁”的告別信。后來,2月14日就成了一個人們可以為他們的情人展示感情的節日。現在,人們以不同的方式慶祝情人節,他們發送賀卡、鮮花,贈送巧克力或其他禮品,或共進浪漫的晚餐。現在這個節日已流行世界各地。在中國,這個節日也越來越受年輕人的歡迎。Ex.10 July 7th on the Chinese calendar is Chinese Qixi Festival, the most romantic of all the traditional Chinese holidays.Every year, some big businesses organize various activities, and young people send gifts to their lovers.As a result, the Qixi Festival is considered to be Chinese “Valentine’s Day”.The Qixi Festival is derived from the legend of Cowherd and Weaving Maid.The legend holds that on this particular night every year the Weaving Maid in heaven meets with Cowherd.So, people can see Cowherd and Weaving Maid meeting in the Milky Way on the night of Qixi.On this night, girls would also beg Weaving Maid for some wisdom for a happy marriage.But, with the changing of times, these activities are diminishing.All that remains is the legend of Cowherd and Weaving Maid, a sign of faithful love, continuously circulated among the folk.Unit 4 Text B Saving the date Reading Skills 1 1.They became romantically attracted to each other.(para.5)2.share the dating expense or split the money

gone quickly if the person only spends.However, some people think the purpose of life is to enjoy moment, so they spend all they have earned.Even though Bryan and Peter are close friends, their spending habits are very different.Bryan is very careful about using his pocket money.He only spends money when it’s necessary.For example, when his pocket money is only $50,he may spend $20 on necessary stationery for schoolwork.He will try to deposit the remaining $30 in his savings account.In his opinion, though the amount is small, it will help him for a possible rainy day since people never know what could happen in the future.Unlike Bryan, Peter usually spends money at will.He often purchases expensive electronic products such as an iPhone and iPad.Sometimes, he might buy himself an expensive brand-name shirt or a pair of expensive brand-name shoes.Different from Byan, he never deposits extra money in a bank after meeting his basic needs.To him, saving money in a bank is something silly because he believes that he can always earn big money after he gets a decent job in the future.All in all, Bryan and Peter are very different in the way they spend money.Spending money wisely and saving extra money for future urgent needs enable students to manage their finance and fully concentrate on their study.They will also derive great pleasure from the way they handle their money.Ex.9 大發現年代,也被稱為大勘探年代,是歐洲進行全球勘查的一個歷史時期,始于15世紀初并一直持續到18世紀。這一時期通常被認為是中世紀和近代之間的橋梁,當時西方帝國主義剛興起,歐洲各王國之間正在經濟上互相競爭,他們想通過建立貿易路線和殖民地來尋找財富。在這一時期眾多偉大的探險家中,最杰出的是克里斯托弗?哥倫布,因為他發現了新大陸。歐洲的海外擴張導致了殖民帝國的崛起,舊大陸與新大陸的接觸也促進了兩邊的互相交換:大量的植物、動物、食物、文化等得到遷移。這代表了歷史上生態、農業和文化在全球范圍內最重大的活動之一。歐洲大勘探讓繪制全球性的世界地圖成為可能,從而使人們看到一個新的世界與古老的文明正遙相呼應。Ex.10 The Silk Road is a traffic route in the ancient times connecting China and Eurasia.This trade route focuses on the trade of silk, hence the name “the Silk Road”.As an international trade channel and a bridge of cultural exchanges, the Silk Road effectively improved the economic and cultural exchanges and development between the East and the West, exerting a profound impact on the progress of the world civilization.Nowadays, under the new historical circumstances, our country proposes the strategy of “One Belt, One Road”(namely the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st-century Maritime Silk Road).The strategy of “One Belt, One Road” focuses on cooperation and mutual benefits, emphasizing mutual benefits, win-win, as well as common development of the related countries.Once proposed, the strategy has received positive responses from the related countries along the road.Unit5 Text B A$3,000 dictionary Reading Skills 1 2.Denotation: examine a place or area in order to get information

Do we always behave rationally? Certainly not.There are a lot of people who behave irrationally, causing problems to themselves as well as to others.Irrational behavior is part of human nature, but as MIT Professor Ariely has discovered, people tend to behave irrationally in a predictable fashion.Though we cannot explain the exact cause behind irrational behavior, we know that it is a manner of behavior not based on logic and reasoning.I would like to give you an example of irrational behavior.If a person has heard about someone suffering from some disease, he will start thinking that he may suffer from the same disease.This is irrational and illogical behavior.I don't think this behavior is always intentional.Reading comprehension Understanding the text 1 1 He was imposing on his troops a necessary sacrifice to achieve victory over their opponents.By doing this, the soldiers would be more determined and concentrated on the battles.2 The purpose for the experiment is to investigate seemingly irrational human behavior when making a decision, such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open.3 The experiment enabled people to see why it's always so hard for them to say “NO” to any opportunities that came to them.In everyday life, people just give excuses to keep options open.4 Students should quickly check all the doors and keep clicking on the one with the highest cash.They should absolutely ignore the vanishing doors.5 Because we can see that the students didn't really focus on ensuring future cash earnings.What they tried to avoid was the immediate pain of watching options close.6 Because in life the doors are closing slowly, not like the ones on the computer in the experiment, people don't really see the opportunities actually vanishing away little by little.7 He suggests that people should prohibit overbooking, reduce options, delegate tasks to others, and even give away ideas to others to pursue.8 People can obtain pleasure and satisfaction by focusing their energy and attention in a more concentrated fashion.They will have more with fewer, carefully chosen options.Critical thinking 2 1 ~ Surprising but very strategic and visionary.~ Reflection of his unique foresight and wisdom.~ Knowledgeable about winning battles.~ Experienced in fighting with enemies.2 ~ Interesting and thought-provoking.~ Reflect students' mentality.~ Meaningful and valid.~ May not be convincing to some people.3 ~ Both consequences are surprising.~ Both are about choices and decision-making.~ Both have to do with strategies.~ Both focus on human's mentality.4 ~ Afraid of losing potential opportunities.~ Too greedy and too ambitious.~ Over-confident about their real capacity.~ More choices, better chances.5 ~ Fewer options, more focused concentration.~ Fewer choices, better quality.~ Everything has two sides.~ Too much greed ends up with nothing.Language focus 3 1 implement 2 rival 3 motivating 4 discarded 5 fluctuating 6 prejudiced 7 restore 8 enlightening 9

causing problems to themselves as well as to others.It's hard to analyze the exact causes behind irrational behavior, but we know that it is a manner of behavior that is not based on logic and reasoning.Irrational behavior is caused by various factors but two stand out.The first main factor that contributes to irrational behavior is uncontrolled emotions.Irrational people take offense or get angry before the actual situation occurs.They become anxious and express exaggerated emotions such as crying and shouting.They have unrealistic expectations, expecting everyone to like them and if someone does not, they feel angry and neglected.It is fairly common for people to show such signs of irrationality.Too much stress can also lead to irrational behavior.In fact, these days, stress is the major cause of physical as well as mental problems.Stress creates feelings of anger, irritation and frustration.For instance, when you spend a stressful day in the office, it makes you anxious.You start releasing your frustration or stress by screaming at your family members for small reasons like a badly prepared meal.That day you feel everything is wrong.In summary, uncontrolled emotions and too much stress can result in irrational behavior.To behave rationally is not an easy job because the behavior is internalized.However, to discover the source of your irrationality will help you behave more rationally.Translation 9 極簡主義是指去掉多余的,僅保留需要的部分、用最簡單的話來說,極簡的生
活方式,就是生活得越簡單越好,直到獲得心靈的平靜,這種簡單既是精神上的,也是身體上的:這樣的生活方式會減輕壓力,帶來更多自由時間.并增強幸福感、極簡主義者會說.他們生活得更有意義了,更從容了,極簡的生活方式讓他們著眼于生活中更重要的事物:朋友、愛好、旅游和體驗。當然,極簡主義并不意味著擁有物質財富從本質上來講有什么不對。現在的問題似乎在于,我們往往太重視所擁有的東西,而常常拋棄了健康、人與人之間的關系、我們的熱情、個人成長,以及幫助他人的愿望。極簡主義除了在我們的口常生活中可以得到應用,還存在于很多創意領域,包括藝術、建筑、沒汁、舞蹈、電影、戲劇、音樂、時尚、攝影和文學等。10 National Happiness Index(NHI)is an index that measures how happy people are.It is also a tool that measures the levels of economic development and people's livelihood and happiness in a country or region.With the fast growth of Chinese economy, the Chinese government has been paying more and more attention to people's living quality and the increase of happiness index.The government stresses improvement of its people's livelihood, striving to improve their economic conditions and meet their growing material and cultural needs.Currently, the Chinese government advocates the unleashing of more reform dividends, with the aim of offering more real benefits to its people.All these measures will combine to effectively increase the NHI of our people.Unit 6 Text B When enough is enough
