Unit1 攻勢已經持續了三天,但是我們并沒有取得多少進展。師長(division commander)命令我們營(battalion)夜晚繞道敵人后方發起突然襲擊。然而,要繞到敵人后方,我們必須越過一片沼澤地(marshland)。我們很多人擔心會陷入泥潭之中。我們營長決定冒一下險。所幸由于寒冷天氣沼澤地都結上了冰,我們于天亮前到達目的地并從敵人后方發起進攻。這一下扭轉了戰局。敵人沒有戒備,不久便投降了。

Thanks to
instruct The offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground.The division commander instructed our battalion to get around the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack.To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud.Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble.By a stroke of luck, thanks to the cold weather which made the marshland freeze over, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear.This turned the tide of the battle.The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.Unit 2
汽車自從發明以來使交通運輸發生了革命性的變化,永遠地改變了人們的生活、旅行和辦事的方式。但另一方面,也帶來了危害,尤其是公路死亡事故。然而,現今由于計算機技術和電子傳感器的使用,有可能消除發生的大多數交通事故。例如,裝在你汽車上的電子傳感器能檢測到空氣中的酒精霧汽并拒絕啟動引擎。同樣,傳感器還能通過接受在軌道上運行的衛星發出的信號檢測路況并大大減少你陷入交通擁堵的可能性。

Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business.On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities.However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents.For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine.They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce your chance of getting stuck in traffic jam.Unit4 全球化對中國年輕人具有重大影響。例如,年輕的農民正在大規模流向城市尋找工作。而對那些想出國深造或進外企工作的年輕人說,英語變得越來越重要。另外一方面,許多海外學子近年來回歸祖國,因為他們看好中國經濟的長期增長前景。因特網加強了中國年輕人與其他地方年輕人的聯系。他們跟蹤最新潮流,模仿外國時尚。他們中的一些人似乎不在乎中國的傳統美德,更不要說發揚光大,這使得有人憂慮中國傳統文化會不會有一天終將消失。
Aspire
considerable economy elsewhere growth increasingly let alone On a large scale outlook strengthen vanish
Globalization has great implications for young Chinese.For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs.And for those who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprise, English has become increasingly important.At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long run growth for the Chinese economy.The internet has strengthened the links between the Chinese young people and those elsewhere.They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions.Some of them don’t seem to care traditional Chinese culture, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Unit5 就我來說,我發現外表往往是靠不住的。譬如,要是你僅憑外表去判斷諸如愛德華-海德-伯頓這樣的人,你就錯了。外表上,伯頓像一個表里一致的人。他個子很小,滿頭白發,有著一雙溫和、蔚藍的眼鏡,文雅且坦率。然而,他原來卻是十分的殘忍。他侮辱和愚弄窮困潦倒的倫尼,讓他去做那樣的蠢事。更讓人吃驚的是,他對倫尼的死全然冷漠無情。毫無疑問,他是一個鐵石心腸的家伙。
For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive.For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece.He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid.Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel.He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture.What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit 6當今我們處于持續的壓力之下,要工作更長的時間,要生產更多,擁有更多。許多人有一種錯誤的認識:幸福就在于拼命地干,使勁地賺。
許多婦女今天感到同樣的壓力,要工作,要出人頭地,而與此同時,又要養育子女,承擔起家庭責任的負擔。
研究表明,工作狂往往使我們與家人的關系疏遠。它迫使我們長時間幸苦勞作,僅留微乎其微的時間與我們的親人呆在一起、交流感情。家庭成員間的親密關系在此過程中注定要消亡。
Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more.Lots of people hole the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead, and at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.Unit 7 今天,在地震襲擊我的家鄉很久以后,我仍然能歷歷在目地回想起我與父母親從家里逃出來時所看到的情景。馬路對面的房子就在我們面前倒塌,瓦礫四處亂飛,嗆人的塵云遮住了太陽。驚恐的人們哭叫著四處奔跑。
如今那一場悲慘事件已經過去很多年,舊城的廢墟上已經聳立起一座新城。人們在小鎮的廣場上建立了一座紀念碑,以懷念那些災難中的死者。看來人們心目中的創傷已愈合,但對此事的記憶將不會消失。
Today, long after the earthquake hit my tome-town, I can still recall, in crystal detail, what I saw as I ran out of my home with my parents.The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of choking dust blotted out the sun.Horror-stricken people ran in all directions, crying and screaming.Now, many years after that tragic event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the old one.In the town square, a memorial has been build to remember those killed in the disaster.It seems the wounds in people’s hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.

UNIT 5 Cloze 1
You see that young man swimming out at sea ?He is trying to swim out to the beacon and back.He must be 1 insane to have committed himself to such a thing.The 2 current is far too strong.To be 3 candid ,I would not attempt it.I dare say few swimmers are 4 capable of such a feat.I met him on the beach before he set out.I donot mind telling you that I 5 was taken aback when he told me what he was going to do ,because he didnot look in good condition at all.Far from it.He may have had a good 7 constitution once,but he had clearly let himself go 8 go all to pieces.However it seems like he had no choice.He told me that he had 9 gone broke,not a penny left,and that old Burton would only find him a vacancy in his firm if he did the swim.That was another surprise.Burton seems such a 11 mild-mannered man ,kind to everybody.Perhaps he thought the young man would not have the courage,that he would funk it.Then ,again,perhaps Burton knew he was sending the young man to his desth,but was too cold-blooded to care.It only goes to show how 12 deceptive appearances can be.Translation 1.1).I have an instinct that Henry will seek to join in the expedition, because he is something of an adventurer.我的直覺是亨利會設法參加這次探險,因為他有一點冒險家的氣質(omething of,instinct)
2).He is capable of sticking to the task at hand, even if he is exposed to noises.即使置身于一個嘈雜的環境中,他也能堅持做手頭的工作。(capable,sticking
to)

5).The teacher’s affectionate words, along with his candid comments, changed the awy Mike perceived the the society and himself.老師那充滿關愛的話語,以及坦誠的評價改變了邁克對于社會和他自己的看法,(affectionate,candid)
Passage translation: For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive.For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece.He eas a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid.Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel.He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture.What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.就我來說,我發現外表往往是靠不住的。譬如,要是你僅憑外表去判斷諸如愛德華*海德*波頓這樣的人,你就錯了。外表上。伯頓像一個表里一致的人。他個子很小,滿頭白

Unit 6 Cloze 1 Can you 1 switch off from the cares of life and relax?Many people today cannot.They feel instead that they are 2 obliged to be 3 on the go all the time.The pace of life seems to grow ever faster.As a result, feelings of stress are common as people struggle to 4 cope with what they see as a 5 shortage of time.Such wi despread feelings are in part caused by the 6 large quantity of information that comes 7 pouring in on us.“All men ,”said Aristotle,“ 8 by nature desire to know.” But it is no longer possible,as it was in the past ,for an individual to master the whole range of human knowledge.Instead,any individual,no matter how smart he is,can only command a 9 fraction of the total knowledge available.It may be argued that it is 10 futile to even attempt to do so.We should learn to set more realistic goals for ourselves if we are to hope to escape from the tyranny(專制)of time.Translation 1)They are exploring the new frontiers of medical science in an attempt to find remedies for incurable diseases / cures for diseases that are beyond remedy so far.他們正在探索醫學研究新領域,試圖治療那些目前還無藥可治 的疾病。(frontier,remedy)

Passage Translation Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more.Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well / good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.當今我們處于持續的壓力之下,要工作更長的時間,要生產更多,擁有更多。許多人有一種錯誤的認識:幸福就在于拼命的干,使勁的賺。
許多婦女今天感到同樣的壓力,要工作,要出人頭地,而與此同時,又要養育子女,承擔起家庭責任的負擔。
研究表明,工作狂(workaholism)往往使我們與家人的關系疏遠。它會迫使我們長時間辛苦勞作,僅留微乎其微的時間與我們的親人呆在一起,交流感情。家庭成員間的親密關系在此過程中注定要消亡,

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 avioded capture.Later he built a small settlement in Dresden, 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.1、無論是在城市還是農村,因特網正在改變人們的生活方式。The Internet is changing the way people live, no matter whether they are in urban or rural areas.2、2、和大公司相比,中小公司更容易受到全球經濟危機的威脅。

Looking back on my twenty years’ teaching in high school, I attributed my success to patience, talent, and the constant pursuit of knowledge.人們幾乎無法將蓄意行竊的盜賊拒之門外。所能做的只是沒法阻攔他片刻,從而使其暴露在巡警面前。常識告訴我們,光照是犯罪行為的障礙物。家門口必須安裝一盞燈,并在晚間開著。如果你碰巧是最晚一個回家,別只關門而不上鎖。如果你決定購買精密的電子報警系統,別忘了索要報警器的標志,并把它們張貼在窗戶和門上。此外,你還可以將報警系統連接到警署。
It is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out.All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus explosing 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.Assure yourself that you don’t leave the door on the 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.1、紅十字會派遣的隊員很小心地對村里的飲用水進行消毒,以避免爆發瘟疫。The volunteers sent by the Red Cross disinfected, with great caution, the drinking water in the village so as to avoid an outbreak of plague.2、愛因斯坦用了多年的時間試圖把電磁學理論和引力理論結合起來,但沒有成功。Einstein spent many years trying to unify the theories of electromagnetism and gravity but failed.3、因其在激發學生創造性想象方面的出色表現,王教授獲得了校長獎。

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.1、奶奶想當然地認為糧價要漲,所以買了許多大米。

Amid the atmosphere of Thanksgiving 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.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.

Though how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to many people, linguists believe that English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: the Indo-European parent language.English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century.They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English.In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing.As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English.Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.Unit 8

This village was once famous for its beautiful natural surroundings.All the year round, the trees were green and the flowers in bloom.Clear streams flowed out of the hills through a checkerboard of rice fields.Birds sang all day, and deer came and went in a leisurely manner.However, with the coming of DDT and other pesticides, an evil spell seemed to have settled over the village.Misfortunes came one after another.Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village doctor.The village square, once throbbing with life, was now deserted.
第五篇:全新版大學英語(第二版)課后翻譯答案
1.The offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground.The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy at night and launch a surprise attack.To do so, however, we had to cross marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud.Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble.Lucky enough, thanks to the severely cold weather which made the marshland freeze over, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear.This turned the tide of the battle.The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.2.Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business.On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities.However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents.For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine.They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce.4.Globalization has great implications for young Chinese.For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs.And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important.At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy.The internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere.They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions.Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.5.For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive.For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece.He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid.Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel.He insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture.What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death.Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.6.Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more.Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.
