In China, for example, greater priority is given to developing skills at an early age. The Americans, on the other hand, place more emphasis on promoting creativity in young children, leaving them to pick up skills later. American parents tend to avoid rushing in to assist their children as they try to accomplish a task, thinking in better that children should learn to solve problems by themselves. Such an approach can, on occasion, be mistaken for neglecting ones parental duties by those more used to “teaching by holding the hand.” Both approaches have their disadvantages as well as advantages, and it may well be worthwhile to search for a superior method that would combine the best of both worlds.中国与西方的学习方式有什么区别吗？尽管我们试图去避免夸大他们之间的不同时，但是不同还是存在的。例如，在中国，人们优先考虑的是在早年进行技艺的学习。另一方面，美国人更加注重小孩子的创造力的发展，然后才是技艺的学习。但孩子们在完成某件事情时，美国的父母认为孩子们应该学会自己解决问题，他们会尽量避免早早地向孩子们提供帮助。有时，这个方法会让那些经常“手把手教育”的父母误会这些父母在消极怠工。这两种方法都有他们的可取之处和不好的地方，也许，找到一个将二者合二为一的办法能更好。3、 Translation1) 背离传统需要极大的勇气。It takes an enormous amount of courage to make a departure from the tradition.2) 汤姆过去很腼腆，但这次却非常勇敢能在大庭广众面前上台表演了。Tom used to be very shy, but this time he was bold enough to give a performance in front of a large audience.3) 很多教育家认为从小培养孩子的创新精神是很可取的。Many educators think it desirable to foster the creative spirit in the child at early age.4) 假设那幅画确实是名作，你觉得值得购买吗？Assuming that this painting really is a masterpiece, do you think its worthwhile to buy it?5) 如果这些数据统计上是站得住脚的，那它将会帮助我们认识正在调查的问题。If the data is statistically valid, it will throw light on the problem we are investigating.要求我们提高我们的英语水平，关键是多读、多写、多听、多说、此外，尽可能多背熟一些好文章也十分重要。如果你脑子里没有储存大量好的英语文章，你就不能用英语自由地表达自己的思想。一边学一边总结经验也很有帮助，因为这样做，我们就能搞明白哪种学习方法是更有效的，能够产生最理想的效果，只要我们坚持努力学习，到时候我们就会完成掌握英语的任务。To improve our English, it is critical to do more reading, writing, listening and speaking. Besides, learning by heart as many well written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your head you cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit 2:1、 VocabularyBless 祝福 consequence 结果 curiosity 好奇心 sentiment 情绪Dated 日期 emotional 情感的 genuine 真正的 primarily 主要地Seemingly 看似 abrupt 突然的 nothing more than 没有什么比wear and tear 磨损Curiosity 好奇 deny 否认 tickle 逗乐 in contrast to相比之下1.

Most of what he owns is rather dated and he will readily admit to falling into the bottom income bracket. Yet he would deny that he is poor, for he feels that his life is full of less tangible riches. Rather than devoting himself to the pursuit of money before all else, he cherishes the pleasures of friendship. His lack of interest in possessions does, however, sometimes make him feel out of place in todays materialistic society and he still clearly feels hurt when he remembers the abrupt departure of a girlfriend who did not share his views. Yet there are many who admire him, particularly for his focus on helping the poor through collecting donations each Christmas.如果您访问过卡尔·格林，您可能一开始认为他是小康人家。他所拥有的东西大锁都是过时的，他也会毫不犹豫地承认落入最低收入阶层。然而他否认他很穷，因为他觉得他的生活只是少了形式上的物质的富足，他不是致力于对金钱的追求，他珍视友谊的乐趣。他缺乏对物质的追求，然而，在当今物欲横流的社会，他仍然清楚地感觉到他记得一位女朋友不同意他的看法突然离开时，他感到了些许的伤痛。不过，还是有很多人佩服他，尤其是对于他在每个圣诞节扶贫募捐。3、 Translation1) 该公司否认其捐款有商业目的。The company denied that its donations had a commercial purpose.2) 每当他生气的时候，他说话就有一点结巴。Whenever he was angry, he would begin to stammer slightly.3) 教育是我们家庭最看重的传统，这就是为什么我父母从不带我到昂贵的饭店吃饭，却送我到最好的私立学校上学。Education is the most cherished tradition in our family.

You can certainly say he gives our welfare his constant attention. Sometimes, however, we wish he wouldnt try quite so hard. To be frank, he seems to have a talent for embarrassing us by making dumb remarks. He should know better than that, but he never seems to learn and just goes on making the same old mistakes repeatedly. The result is that we live in constant dread of his well-intentioned interference in our affairs. Mom is no help, as you can bet she will always see things from his point of view rather than from ours. Overall, though, hes a wonderful dad and I assure you I wouldnt trade him for anyone in the world.我们的爸爸是典型的老一辈人，你当然可以说他一直关心我们的福祉。然而，我们希望他不那么尽力。老实说，他在说蠢话使我们感到尴尬方面有特殊的才能。他应该很清楚的，但他从来都没有吸取教训，老是重复的犯一些错误。我们一直担心他对我们的事情有善意的干涉，妈妈是帮不了忙的，你可以打赌说她总是站在爸爸的视角看问题。然而，总的来说，他是一个很棒的老爸，我保证在这个世界上我不愿意和任何人交换他。3、 Translation1) 科学家们找到火星上有水的证据了吗？Have scientists found proof of water on Mars?2) 计划委员会已经将建核电厂的可能地点缩小到了两个沿海城镇。The planning committee has narrowed down the possible locations for the nuclear power plant to two coastal towns.3) 山姆不仅失去了工作，而且还失去了双腿，他只好靠社会救济度过余生。Sam not only lost his job but also both legs; he had to live on welfare for the rest of his life.4) 有十二人组成的陪审团一致表决认为玛丽有罪。A jury consisting of 12 members voted in unison that Mary was guilty.5) 听到有人质疑他的才能，肖恩觉得受了奇耻大辱。Sean felt humiliated to hear his talent being questioned.约翰逊先生的儿子乔治爱在晚上听重金属音乐，这使失去其他居民无法入眠，疲倦不堪的邻居们终于失去了耐心，决定直接干预。他们打电话给约翰逊先生，坦率地把想法告诉了他。约翰逊先生向邻居保证他一定会解决这个问题。放下电话他便去训斥儿子：“你这是怎么了？你该懂得不能为了你自己的娱乐而妨碍别人。”结果乔治拿CD跟同学换了电脑游戏软件。George, the son of Mr. Johnson, liked listening to heavy metal music in the evenings, which made it hard for other residents in the community to fall asleep. Eventually the exhausted neighbors lost their patience and decided on direct interference. They called Mr. Johnson to tell him in a frank manner what they were thinking. Mr. Johnson assured them that he would certainly settle the issue. As soon as he put down the phone he scolded his son, “What has come over you? You should know better than to disturb others for your own amusement.” In the end George traded his CDs for computer games software from his classmates. Unit 41、 VocabularyTake in 接收angle 角度 arrange 安排 conversely 相反地Data 数据edit 编辑 stretch 拉伸 Internet 互联网Spit 吐出 but then 然而 symptom 症状 tone 语气At times有时 in sight 临近 abuse 滥用appointment 约会1.

The computer does not take in your messages nor does it spit out data. Still others, who get sucked into the virtual world, may find communicating face-to-face too emotional and unbearable. At times they feel this so strongly that they have to flee from real human contact,
