二、翻译

Unit 5

Sharp conflicts are now arising. Patients are learning to press for answers. 剧烈的冲

突正在出现。病人开始学会催问真实情况。

Patients’ bills of rights require that they be informed about their condition and about alternatives for treatment. 根据病人应享有的权利的规定,医生应将病情和可供选择的治疗方案通告病人。

Many doctors go to great lengths to provide such information. Yet even in hospitals with the most eloquent bill of rights, believers in benevolent deception continue their age-old practices. 许多医生尽可能向病人提供这些情况。然而,即使在对病人的权益考虑得最周到的医院里,信奉”仁慈”欺骗的医生们继续他们传统的古老做法。

Colleagues may disapprove but refrain from objecting. Nurses may bitterly resent having to take part, day after day, in deceiving patients, but feel powerless to take a stand. 同事们也许不赞同,但避免公开表示反对。护士们对不得不日复一日地参与欺骗病人的做法也许深恶痛绝,但要抵制却感到无能为力。

There is urgent need to debate this issue openly. Not only in medicine, but in other professions as well, practitioners may find themselves repeatedly in difficulty where serious consequences seem avoidable only through deception. 及时对这个问题进行公开辩论非常必要。不仅在医疗业,而且在其他行业,从业者不断发现,自己常处于似乎不采用欺骗手段就无法避免严重后果的困难处境。

Yet the public has every reason to be wary of professional deception, for such practices are peculiarly likely to become deeply rooted, to spread, and to erode trust. Neither in medicine, nor in law, government, or the social sciences can there be comfort in the old saying, “What you don’t know can’t hurt you.”但是公众完全有理由对职业性欺骗保持警惕,因为这种做法特别容易变得根深蒂固,蔓延滋长,并损害信任。无论医疗界、法律界、政府机构还是社会科学界,都不应从“不知者,不为所害”这句老话中得到丝毫慰藉。

Unit 6

There are two ways in which one can own a book. The first is the property right you establish by paying for it, just as you pay for clothes and furniture. 一个人拥有书的方法有两种,第一种是花钱取得财产所有权,就像你花钱买衣服和家具一样。But this act of purchase is only the prelude to possession. Full ownership comes only when you have made it a part of yourself, and the best way to make yourself a part of it is by writing in it. 但花钱买书只是占有它的前奏。只有在你将它化为你自己的一部分之后,你才完全占有了它。而把你自己变为书的一部分的最好方法就是在书中写字。

An illustration may make the point clear. You buy a beefsteak and transfer it from the butcher's icebox to your own. But you do not own the beefsteak in the most important sense until you consume it and get it into your bloodstream. I am arguing that books, too, must be absorbed in your bloodstream to do you any good. 打个比方也许可以把这一点说清楚。你买下一块牛排,把它从肉铺的冰箱里转移到你的冰箱中。但从最重要的意义上来说,你还没有占有它,除非你吃下它并将它吸收进你的血液之中。我的论点是,书的营养也只有在被吸收进你的血液中时,才能对你有所裨益。

Unit 10

Jobs and work do much more than most of us realize to provide happiness and contentment. 职业和工作在使人得到幸福与满足方面所起的作用比我们大多数人意识到的要多得多。

We're all used to thinking that work provides the material things of life -- the goods and services that make possible our modern civilization. But we are much less conscious of the extent to which work provides the more intangible, but more crucial, psychological well-being that can make the difference between a full and an empty life. 我们都习惯于认为工作为人生提供物质的东西--提供使我们的现代文明成为可能的商品和服务。但是我们对工作在促进精神生活方面所起的作用则知之甚少。这方面的作用难以捉摸,却更加至关重要,它是人生过得充实还是空虚的决定性因素。

Historically, work has been associated with slavery and sin and punishment. And in our own day.在历史上,工作一直与奴役、罪恶和惩罚联系在一起。

We are used to hearing the traditional complaints: 'I can't wait for my vacation,' 'I wish I could stay home today,' 'My boss treats me poorly,' 'I've got too much work to do and not enough time to do it.' Against this background, it may well come as a surprise to learn that not only psychologists but other behavioral scientists have come to accept the positive contribution of work to the individual's happiness and sense of personal achievement. 现今我们还常常听到那些老一套的怨言:“我巴不得早点放假”,“今天我要是呆在家里该多好”,“我的老板待我不好”,“我的事情多得来不及做”等等。在这种情况下,当你得悉心理学家们以及其他的行为科学家们都认为,工作对个人幸福和个人成就起着积极作用时,你很可能会感到惊奇。Work is more than a necessity for most human beings; it is the focus of their lives, the source of their identity and creativity. 对大多数人来说,工作不仅仅是一种必需,它还是人们生活的焦点,是他们的个性和创造性的源泉。

三、完形

Unit 1

When Dad told us about the delivery work it sounded easy, just a piece of cake. The trouble was, we didn’t take care to inquire just how much material was involved. Before long trucks seemed to be pulling up outside our house all day long, leaving stacks of advertising. It seemed we should have no chance of meeting the deadline. The we had this marvelous idea. Hiring local kids to help would enable us to get the job done on time. True, it would cut into our profits, but there was no alternative. things seemed to be going well, but then we had trouble over a pay claim. Our workers demanded five dollars an hour, but fortunately for us they were ready to settle for less. As for us, when we finally settled our accounts we ended up earning less than the minimum wage for our efforts. I guess we should haveknow better than

to believe that big bucks come easy.

Unit 5

Whether or not to tell the seriously ill about their true condition has long been a dilemma for medical professionals. Many doctors believe that concealing the facts from those patients will benefit them psychologically and may help them recover. But new studies show that contrary to this widespread belief, the overwhelming majority of patients want to be told the truth, even in the case of grave illnesses. If they are not, they feel betrayed and misled. As it is, lying makes it difficult for patients to make choices concerning their own health. And keeping a dying patient in the dark prevents him from making decisions about the end of his life. Lying can also cause doctors to lose their integrity and credibility and dose harm to colleagues who are honest with their patients. In the long run, lying hurts the entire medical profession. As a consequence of the current concerns, many hospitals have adopted patients’ bills of rights, but patients still need to be wary because the days of physicians deceiving patients are certainly not over yet and many never be.

Unit 6

We all know that we need to “read between the lines” of a text, but some people find writing between them just as helpful. For making books can be a useful tool at times. This is not true of all books, of course. It would clearly be wrong to scribble notes in a magnificent leather-bound first edition that has been preserved unmarked. Nor would writing on works we just dip into for light entertainment be appropriate. But with one’s own textb ooks, marking may have a place. For reading is not just a passive transfer of information from the page to the eye. Reading is a much more active process, in which we need to think through and question what we read in order to integrate it into our existing knowledge. Setting down our ideas on the page as we read and underlining those points we find particularly relevant can have a part to play here. So, next time you sit down to study, instead of letting your eyes just glide lazily over the page, reach for your pen!

While it is often said that love makes the world go round, scientists take a less romantic view. To their minds, energy is the fundamental force at work. All animal life is dependent on obtaining sufficient energy from food. Deer, like other wild animals, do this through eating as much food as possible in the summer, when food resources are abundant. Any excess of energy over their current needs is deposited in the body in the form of fat. Then, when food becomes scarce in the winter, they can live off the fat. In addition, nature helps them to survive the winter by slowing down their metabolism, assisting them to pull through the cold weather. However, when the winter is particularly harsh, deer may have to draw on the fat they have built up more heavily. Under such conditions, only deer in good condition are able to survive to give birth to a new generation. In his essay George Orwell starts off by citing Bernard Shaw’s remark that people are more superstitious today than they were in the Middle Ages. They promptly accept the opinions of experts without asking any questions themselves. Obviously Shaw exaggerates just in order to prove his point that we should not always fall back on the theories of well-known authorities. Rather, we should aim at finding out some things for ourselves. By way of illustration, Orwell outlines arguments against the Flat Earth and the Oval Earth theories, thus throwing light on the fact that much of our knowledge actually rests on authority rather than on reasoning or on experiment. Finally, Orwell draws his conclusion that ours is a credulous age partly because we have such an exceptionally heavy burden of knowledge. The last time Lyz saw her husband was as he waved goodbye to her from the steps of their house. He was due to fly off on business later that day. Unluckily for him his flight was cancelled and he found himself having to take United Flight 93 the following day. It was from on board that ill-fated flight that he telephoned with the news that hijackers had threatened to blow up the aircraft. Cursing his bad luck, he nonetheless realized that his fate was in his own hands. Hoping that the terrorists were bluffing when they claimed to have a bomb, he and some other passengers decided to act. Without hanging up, he set off with the others to attack the hijackers. From the telephone came the sound of screams. Then silence.

大学英语精读第二册Reading Aloud and Memorizing答案

The American does not join in the argument but watches the other guests. As he looks, he sees a strange expression come over the face of the hostess. She is s taring straight ahead, her muscles contracting slightly. She motions to the nat ive boy standing behind her chair and whispers something to him. The boy's eyes widen: he quickly leaves the room. Of the guests, none except the American notices this or sees the boy place a bo wl of milk on the veranda just outside the open doors. The American comes to with a start. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thi ng -- bait for a snake. He realizes there must be a cobra in the room. Unit2 Jefferson's courage and idealism were based on knowledge. He probably knew more than any other man of his age. He was an expert in agriculture, archeology, an d medicine. He practiced crop rotation and soil conservation a century before t hese became standard practice, and he invented a plow superior to any other in existence. He influenced architecture throughout America, and he was constantly producing devices for making the tasks of ordinary life easier to perform. Of all Jefferson's many talents, one is central. He was above all a good and ti reless writer. His complete works, now being published for the first time, will fill more than fifty volumes. His talent as an author was soon discovered, and when the time came to write the Declaration of Independence at Philadelphia in 1776, the task of writing it was his. Millions have thrilled to his words: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…" Unit3 While I was waiting to enter university, I saw advertised in a local newspaper a teaching post at a school in a suburb of London about ten miles from where I lived. Being very short money and wanting to do something useful, I applied, fe aring as I did so, that without a degree and with no experience in teaching my chances of getting the job were slim. However, three days later a letter arrived, asking me to go to Croydon for an i nterview. It proved an awkward journey: a train to Croydon station; a ten-minut e bus ride and then a walk of at least a quarter to feel nervous. Unit 4 As a boy and then as an adult,I never lost my wonder at the personality that was Einstein .He was the only person i knew who had come to terms with himself and the world around him .He knew what he wanted and he wanted only this :to understand within his limits as a human being the nature of the universe and the logic and simplicity in its functioning .He knew there were answers beyond his intellectual reach .but this did not frustrate him .He was content to go as far as he could.

一、阅读理解(共1道小题,共25.0分) 1. Sixty-year-old grandmother, Fiona McFee, is going to stop working next year and she decided to realize a childhood dream and sail around the coast of Scotland in a small boat.
