21世纪大学实用英语课文翻译及课后答案

Text A 大学——我一生中的转折点

佚名

作为一名一年级新生初进大学时，我害怕自己在学业上搞不好。我害怕独自一人在外，因为我是第

一次远离家人。这里周围都是我不认识的人，而他们也不认识我。我得和他们交朋友，或许还得在我要学的课程上

跟他们在分数上进行竞争。他们比我更聪明吗？我跟得上他们吗？他们会接受我吗？

我很快就认识到，我的生活现在就取决于我自己了。如果我要在学业上取得成功，我就必须制定一份学习计划。我

必须调整花在学习上的时间和花在社交上的时间。我必须决定什么时候上床睡觉，什么时候吃什么，什么时候喝什

么，对什么人表示友好。这些问题我都得自己回答。

开始时，生活有点艰难。我在怎样利用时间上犯了错误。我在交朋友上花的时间太多了。我还在怎样选择大学里的

第一批朋友上犯了一些错误。

然而不久，我就控制住了自己的生活。我做到了按时上课，完成并交上了第一批作业，而且以相当好的成绩通过了

前几次考试。此外，我还交了一些朋友，跟他们在一起我感到很自在，我能把我担心的事告诉他们。我建立了一种

真正属于我自己的常规——一种满足了我的需要的常规。

结果，我开始从一个不同的视角看待我自己了。我开始把自己看作是一个对自己负责也对朋友和家人负责的人。凡

事自己做决定并看到这些决定最终证明是明智的决定，这种感觉很好。我猜想这就是人们所说的“成长”的一部分

吧。

我未来的生活将会怎样呢？在人生的这一阶段，我真的不能确定我的人生之路最终将会走向何方，我真的不知道在

以后的几年中我会做什么。但我知道，我能应对未来，因为我已经成功地跃过了我生命中的这一重要障碍：我已经

完成了从一个依赖家人给予感情支持的人向一个对自己负责的人的过渡。

Text B 我希望从大学教育中得到什么

亚历克西斯?沃尔顿

中学毕业后，我计划做几件事。我计划做的最重要的事就是上大学。除了获得一个学位外，我还计划从大学教育中

追求更高深的学识，开始一种职业生涯，并在我的家庭中创造历史。

我希望从大学教育中得到的第一样东西是更高深的知识。学习知识远远不止是获得中学教育，它在今天的社会里是

非常必要的。它让我们熟悉我们的环境和环境中的每一个人，它让我们对自己保持自信。如果毫无知识，我们很多

人就会迷失方向，我们的世界就会非常混乱。一个人不仅要成为负责、独立的人，还必须学会做像运用数学技能这

样的事情。我知道大学教育就会让我获得这些能力。

其次，我希望因为受了大学教育而开始一种职业生涯。作为一名大学生，我计划学习化学工程。在学习这一专业所

必需的所有课程并成功地完成它们之后，我希望能开始作为一名化工工程师的职业生涯。

在我的家庭中创造历史是我希望从大学教育中得到的又一样重要的东西。我的父母都没有大学毕业，我的三个兄弟

中也没有一个大学毕业生，但他们却都中学毕业了。回顾过去激励着我走得更远。我希望成为第一个获得大学教育

的人而在我的家庭中创造历史。

追求更深远的知识，开始职业生涯，在我家中创造历史，这些就是我希望从大学教育中得到的东西。实现这些目标，从而使我不断地获得成功，这是非常重要的。我知道这些事情和更多的事情都是可能实现的。只要我相信这一点，

那我就能实现它。

他帮助了盲人

珍妮?K?格里泽

眼睛瞎了而又想读书——这就是路易?布莱叶的生活现实。想顺利进行阅读的愿望导致了布莱叶盲字体系的产生。1月4日是布拉耶日。这一节日是向盲人表示敬意。我们还应该记住路易和他在15岁时取得的成就。

路易?布莱叶于1809年1月4日生于法国。他与父母、两个姐姐和一个哥哥住在库普弗雷一幢小小的石头房子里。

3岁的路易去了父亲的作坊。路易的父亲是个鞍具制作商，他用皮革制作各种鞍具。路易学着父亲的样子，试着用

小刀割一块皮革。他的手一滑，刀尖就戳进了眼睛。医生们竭尽全力为他医治，但那只受伤的眼睛受到了感染。后

来感染传给了他那只好的眼睛。路易变成了盲人。

路易进了一所公立学校，通过听老师讲课进行学习。为了做作业，他的姐姐和一个朋友把作业读给他听。很快路易

便成了班里的尖子生。

一天，教会的牧师来到路易家，告诉他的父母, 巴黎有一所盲童学校。路易的父母决定把他送到那所学校去，当时

他是9岁。

路易渴望读书。学校里只有14本供盲人阅读的书。这些书又大又重。书中的字母很大而且是凸起的。读一本书要

花很长时间。路易心想，肯定有一种更好的阅读方法。

路易12岁时，一位法国军官查尔斯?巴比埃来到了学校。巴比埃研制出一种供军队士兵使用的字母电码。这种电码

被用来在夜间向士兵发送信息。它由点和划组成。即使敌人看到信息，电码也能使它们保密。但这种电码对盲人来

说太复杂了。路易认为这种电码使用起来太慢，而那些划也太占地方。一页纸只容得下一两句句子。

在以后的三年中，路易一直在做着简化电码的工作。在家中度假的一天，15岁的路易捡起了一把钝锥子。啊哈！他

突然想到了一个主意。他只用6个点就做出了字母表。他用不同的凸点代表不同的字母。后来，他又为数字和音乐

编制了一个体系。

今天，布莱叶盲字已用于全世界几乎每一种语言。路易?布莱叶在15岁时创造了六圆点布莱叶体系从而改变了盲人

的生活。把布莱叶的生日1月4日定为向盲人表示敬意的布莱叶日是非常恰当的。

不要吃番茄，它们有毒！

迈克尔?威廉斯

最早的番茄是几千年前印第安人在秘鲁和厄瓜多尔发现的野生番茄。在印第安人迁移至中美时，他们随

身带去了番茄这种植物。在16世纪初期征服了墨西哥的西班牙士兵又把这种植物带到了西班牙。

很快番茄就遍及了整个欧洲，但英国人却对它很当心。他们认为番茄看上去很漂亮，但却不是供人食用的。英国的

医生们警告病人说，番茄是有毒的，吃一只番茄就会致人死亡。

有几百年的时间，英国人和美国人都用一株株的番茄装饰他们的房间，但他们从来不敢吃这种蔬菜。如果不是有一

个名叫罗伯特?约翰逊的新泽西人，这一荒诞说法可能至今还在流行。

1808年，约翰逊带着大量的番茄植物回到了美国。他本希望把它们卖到美国市场。他把这些植物送给了当地的农场主，并为种出的最大番茄提供了一笔奖金。但在他的家乡新泽西的塞勒姆和别的地方一样，人们仍然拒绝接受番茄。约翰逊于是决定采取一种孤注一掷的措施。他公开宣布他要站在当地政府办公楼的台阶上当众吃下一筐番茄。

镇民们都震惊了。约翰逊的医生警告说，他将口吐白沫，然后摔倒并在几分钟后死去。

终于，那个重要的日子来到了。两千人围在县政府办公大楼周围来看一个人自杀（或者说他们认为他是自杀）。当

约翰逊身穿一套色彩鲜亮的西装走上县政府办公大楼的台阶时，人群突然陷入死一般的寂静。当时钟敲响中午12点时，他拿起一只番茄，把它举了起来。他随后对人群讲起了话。

“朋友们，我现在就吃我的第一只番茄。”

在他咬第一口时，人群中一个妇女尖叫着晕倒了。吃完那只番茄后，约翰逊又拿起一只番茄开始吃了起来。人群中

又有一个妇女晕了过去。

很快，那筐番茄就吃光了。人群中爆发出一阵掌声。罗伯特?约翰逊成了一名英雄。在不到5年的时间里，番茄便成了美国的一种主要作物。

今天，每年生产的番茄超过了5000蒲式耳。人们消费的番茄汁超过了4000万箱，番茄酱几百万瓶。如果不是罗伯特?约翰逊那孤注一掷的措施，也许番茄永远也不会成为美国人饮食的一部分。

谢谢你，妈妈，为了你所做的一切

鲍勃?伯恩斯

我们往往被日常事务缠住而忘记一些最为重要的事情。我们极少有人停下来花时间对我们的母亲说一声“谢谢

你”。

我准备在母亲节之际花一点时间给母亲写封信反省一下。在5月10日星期天问候你的母亲时请随意用这封信中任

何句子。祝大家母亲节快乐。

亲爱的妈妈：

我知道，这封信早就该写了。我知道你会原谅我的拖沓，你总是这样的。

有很多很多理由要说谢谢你，真不知从何说起。我会永远记住，每当需要你时，你总是在那儿。

我小的时候，如同所有的小男孩一样，身上总有些割破的伤口、碰撞造成的肿块和擦伤，但有你照料总

感到好一些。

你使我一直走在正路上，我认为这仍是我在走的路。

最为丢脸的事莫过于站在我小学的课堂外看到你沿着走廊走过来。你在学校里工作，而我竟然常常因为犯事被赶出

教室。你的责备很和婉，但却非常中肯。

我还会记住，即使在我长得比你高大以后，你也不怕提醒我谁是家里的主管。为此我感谢你。

母亲们做的事你都做了，洗衣服、烧饭、打扫卫生，而且毫无怨言、毫无异议。然而即使再忙你也总能帮着我做题，

或助我一臂之力。

你让我学会了厨房里的基本功，这使我在独自一人时不致挨饿。

你以身作则，身教重于言教，对此我非常感激。我能看到我多么容易就成了自己女儿的最佳楷模。你为我做出了榜

样。

你的孩子们现在都已成人，你孩子们的孩子也差不多都已长大。你现在可以自豪地回顾过去，而且知道自己可以休

息了。要是对母亲们进行评价，你当立于最佳母亲之列。

愿上帝保佑你，妈妈。

他一生的工作

怀维恩?弗拉特

他妻子死的时候，那个婴儿才两岁。他们另外还有6个孩子——3个男孩和3个女孩。年龄从4岁到16岁不等。

他成了鳏夫几天后，他的父母和岳父母一起来看他。

“我们一直在讨论，”他们说，“这事怎么办才好。你不可能一边照顾所有这些孩子一边还要干活养家糊

口。所以我们已在安排把每个孩子安置在一个叔叔、阿姨家。我们保证你所有的孩子都住在这个地区内，让你随时

都能见到他们……”

口。所以我们已在安排把每个孩子安置在一个叔叔、阿姨家。我们保证你所有的孩子都住在这个地区内，让你随时

都能见到他们……”

在以后的几个星期里，那人跟他的孩子们一起干活。他给他们分配杂活儿，让他们承担职责。两个12岁和10岁的大女儿开始烧饭、洗衣服、做家务杂活儿。两个16岁和14岁的大儿子则帮着父亲干农活儿。

但接着又是一个打击。那男人患上了关节炎。他的两只手肿了起来，他不能使用他的农具了。孩子们都很好地承担

起自己的重任，但那男人看得出他将不能这样继续下去了。他卖掉了农具，把家搬到一个小镇上，开了一家小商店。街坊欢迎这家人住进来。男人的商店生意很兴旺。他从接待人们并为他们服务中得到了快乐。关于他为人和蔼可亲，对顾客服务细致周到的口碑开始传了出去。人们从四面八方来和他做生意。孩子们也都在家里和店里帮着干活。父

亲在工作中的愉快给他们带来了满足，而他也从他们的成功中得到乐趣。

孩子们长大了，结婚了。7个孩子中有5个进了大学，大多是在结婚后。每个人都是自己支付的学费。孩子们读大

学的成就是父亲骄傲的来源。他当年只读到六年级就辍学了。

后来子女们也有了孩子。没有哪个爷爷比这个男人更喜欢孙子辈的小孩子了。在他们蹒跚学步时，他把

他们邀请到自己的工作场所和自己小小的家中。他们给彼此都带来了巨大的欢乐。

终于，最小的女儿——母亲去世时只有两岁大的那个女婴——也结婚了。

而那个男人，在完成了一生的工作后，也死了。

这个男人的工作就是养育子女这一孤独但却充满欢乐的任务。这个男人就是我的父亲。我是那个16岁的男孩，７个孩子中的老大。

跑得飞快

克里斯坦?赫尔

知道这一点的孩子并不多，但实际上一个人可以学会跑得更快。这是真的。即使运动场上跑得最慢的人也可以通过

学习和练习跑的技术成为一个跑得快的人。办法如下：

基本技术

跑需要的基本技能有两种：速度和耐力。

速度测量的是一个人能够跑多快。

耐力测量的是一个人能够跑多远。

大多数体育项目都要求运动员在速度和耐力两方面均技术娴熟。例如，足球运动员在做动作时要用速度，而要在整

场比赛中能在球场上来回奔跑则需要耐力。速度和耐力都可以学会。

速度的秘密

一个运动员要跑得快就必须运用一种特殊的奔跑技术，这种技术通常被称作冲刺。冲刺的技术要领如下：

首先，把脚看作四个不同的部分： 1. 脚跟； 2. 足弓； 3. 足垫； 4. 脚趾。

在冲刺时，运动员只用脚的两部分，即足垫和脚趾。运动员用足垫撞击地面，然后用脚趾推动向前。（脚跟从不接触地面！）这样只用两部分，脚步就会加快，速度就会提高。

冲刺技术的另外一个部分是双臂的运用。这可能听上去很愚蠢，但双臂实际上的确能帮助我们跑得更快。

年轻的运动员可以在自家的后院或运动场上练习冲刺技术以提高自己的速度。要达到技术娴熟的水平可

能要花费一些时间，但如同任何运动技术一样，练习越经常，技术越熟练！

增强耐力之要诀

第二项跑的技能是耐力。运动员需要很好的耐力才能跑很长的时间而不疲劳。在大多数体育项目中这都是一项非常

重要的技能。

耐力跑的要诀是保存能量。这意味着用所需的最小能量使自己向前移动。像冲刺一样，也有一项技术可用来帮助跑

步者成为好的耐力跑步者。这项技术通常被称作重力引力技术。其技术要领如下：

首先，运动员前倾的幅度不要太大，只要使他不停地向前跨步使自己不致摔倒即可。其次，摆臂的幅度要大，以保

持身体平衡。最后——这是很难对付的一部分——在跑的整个过程中一直保持这种姿势。

在这项技术上达到熟练程度需要进行相当多的练习。然而，用这种方式跑，运动员就可以运用重力的引力向前跑。

这样做不是很聪明吗？

结论

几乎每个体育项目的运动员都要运用速度和耐力。令人高兴的是，任何人都可以通过学习和练习这些跑的技术成为

一名更好的运动员。奇怪的是，几乎没有人知道这一点！

运动：它能为你做什么？

佚名

各种不同年龄的美国人都在跑步、跳跃和举重，以保持身体健康。很多人相信，运动对身心有好处。他们说，运动

有助于他们减轻体重，变得更有吸引力，或年纪大时仍保持原有的体形。还有些生活节奏非常紧张的人说，运动能

帮助他们放松。这些人认为，运动能帮助他们避免由紧张引起的多种健康问题——例如心脏病。这些信念中有些是

幻想：不可能或不真实的东西。其他的信念则是事实：真实的东西，因为人们在研究中已经证实了它们。

关于运动的事实是什么呢？仅仅通过运动你就真的能够改变体形？如果进行锻炼是否任何女人都能看上去像简?方达那样身段优美？如果经常举重是否任何男人都能像阿诺德?施瓦辛格那样肌肉发达？事实上，答案是不，并非如

此。在你出生前，遗传性就决定了你的脂肪细胞数和你的肌肉线条（你肌肉的显露程度），所以，你的身体通过运

动能改变多少是有一个限度的。然而，如果你烧掉（消耗掉）的卡路里超过你摄入的卡路里，你的确能减轻体重。

运动与节食相结合能有所帮助，但你大概不会看上去像方达女士那样身段优美，除非你在开始运动前已经身材优美。

同样地，你的确能增强并扩大你的肌肉；这可以改进你的整体外观，但它大概不会使你看上去像施瓦辛格那样肌肉

发达，除非你一生下来就有他那种肌肉线条。

通过运动来减少压力又怎么样呢？实际上，研究已经表明，做有氧运动（加快心率的运动）能促使脑释放内啡肽，

这是身体内的一种减轻痛苦、使身体放松的化学物质。然而，不能保证运动会防止心脏病发作或中风，特别是如果

你的家庭成员中有人患过这些疾病。但如果你运动，饮食得当，不吸烟，有一个从容、积极的态度，你就会减少患

上与紧张有关的疾病的可能性。

Text A 果园里的财宝

佚名

一个老园丁快死了，叫人把两个儿子叫到床边来，因为他想要对他们说话。两个儿子应他的要求来了，老人坐直身

子靠在枕头上，指向窗外的果园。

“你们看到果园了吗？”他说。

“是的，父亲，我们看到果园了。”

“多年来，它一直生产最好的水果——金黄的橘子、红艳艳的苹果和比红宝石还要大还要晶莹鲜亮的樱桃！”

“的确是这样，父亲。它一直是个好果园！”　

老园丁一次又一次地点头。他看看自己的双手——用了一辈子的铲子把他的手都磨出了老茧。然后又看看儿子们的

手，只见他们的指甲都修得光光的，他们的手指像闲雅女士的手指一样白皙。

“你们一生从没有干过一天活，你们俩！”他说。“我怀疑你们以后会不会干活！但我已经在果园里藏了一笔金银

财宝让你们去找。除非你们把它挖出来，否则你们永远也不会拥有它。它就放在两棵树的中间，距离树干既不太近，也不太远。只要花力气去挖它就是你们的——就这些！”

然后他就打发他们走了，之后不久他就死了。于是，果园就成了他两个儿子的财产。他们毫不迟延，立即开始工作，挖找已经答应给他们的财宝。

他们挖呀，挖呀，一天又一天地挖，一周又一周地挖。沿着果树间长长的小径向前挖，距离树干既不太近也不太远。他们掘起所有的野草，拣出所有的石块；不是因为他们喜欢除草和清理石块，而是因为这是寻找埋藏的财宝必须做

的事情。冬去春来，橘子树上、苹果树上和樱桃树上开出了花，花瓣淡雅如珍珠，柔软如丝绸，像窗帘一般挂在树

上，那花从来没有这样盛开过。随后夏天把阳光洒满果园，有时阴云又使果园沐浴在清凉可口的雨水中。终于，水

果收获的季节到了，但两兄弟还没有找到藏在树根之间的财宝。

后来他们派人从最近的镇上叫来了一个商人来购买这些水果。金黄色的橘子，红艳艳的苹果和比红宝石还要大、还

要晶莹鲜亮的樱桃一大串一大串地挂在果树上。那商人看着那些水果毫不掩饰地大加赞赏。

“这是我见过的最好的收成，”他说。“我愿意给你们20袋钱买下它！”

20袋钱比两兄弟一辈子有过的钱还要多。他们非常高兴地达成协议成交，拿着钱袋进了屋，而那位商人则安排把水果运走。

“我明年还来，”他说。“我总是高兴买这样的水果的。你们肯定花了大力气刨地、除草、干活才种出这样的水果

吧！”

商人走了。两兄弟坐在那儿，目光越过钱袋顶看着对方。他们的双手变得粗糙，磨出了老茧，正像老园丁临死时的

手那样。

“金黄色的橘子，红艳艳的苹果和比红宝石还要大、还要晶莹鲜亮的樱桃，”一个兄弟轻声地说。“我想这就是我

们整整一年来一直挖找的财宝，也就是我们父亲所指的财宝。”

Text B 金色杨桃树

很久、很久以前，有一个富有的四口之家，他们是父亲、母亲和两个儿子。父母去世时，把他们的金子、房子和地

等财产都留给了两个儿子。但大儿子欺骗了弟弟，几乎把所有的东西都自己拿走了。他留给弟弟的唯一一样东西是

一棵杨桃树。

弟弟是个温和平静的人，对哥哥那种贪婪的欺骗行为并没有感到不高兴。他找到一份工作，业余时间则照料那棵杨

桃树。每当看到那棵树时，他都会想到自己的父母。他希望它会结出丰硕的果实让他在市场上出售，从而额外挣些

钱。

一天早晨，正当杨桃成熟时，一只凤凰飞下来，开始吃那些最好的杨桃了。“请不要吃它们，”年轻人说。“我要

在市场上卖钱的。我真的很需要这钱。也许我可以拿些别的东西给你吃。”凤凰回答说，“我吃的杨桃我会用纯金

来偿付你的。准备好一只袋子，等我吃完，你就可以有一大笔金币补偿你的杨桃了。”

年轻人拿来一只口袋，凤凰吃饱后，便把他驮在背上，飞过大海来到远处一个地上铺着厚厚一层金币的岛上。年轻

人为凤凰吃的每一只杨桃拿了一枚金币，然后那只大鸟又驮着他和那只装满金币的口袋回到他的家。

年轻人买了一幢新房子，在里面摆满了昂贵的家具。后来他又买下几家商店，便安顿下来享受起富人的生活。很快

他便邀请哥哥来共享美餐，庆祝他时来运转。

哥哥发现弟弟如此富有不禁大为惊讶。“你怎么这么快就变富了？”他急切地问道。年轻人对他讲了凤凰和杨桃树

的故事，哥哥马上就要用父母留下的金子、房子和地来交换那棵杨桃树。弟弟觉得自己已经有了一辈子也用不完的

财富，便同意进行交换。

当杨桃树的果实再次成熟时，凤凰又飞回来吃了。哥哥要求吃杨桃要付钱，凤凰同意了。“拿一只口袋来装金子，

你会得到报酬的，”凤凰说。

当凤凰驮着哥哥来到岛上时，那个贪婪的人并不满足于一只杨桃换一枚金币，而是抓起一把一把的金币，把口袋装

得满满的。从岛上往回飞的路上，因为口袋太沉，连大凤凰也承受不住它的重量了。它把人和口袋一起丢进了大海。哥哥淹死了，而那些金币也丢失在了海底。

UNIT 1 Want to know how to improve your grades without having to spend more time studying? Sounds too good to be true? Well, read on... How to Improve Y our Study Habits Perhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. Y ou do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily the case, however. Y ou can receive better grades if you want to. Y es, even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here's how: 1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed（指定的时间）time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments. Of course, studying shouldn't occupy all of the free time on the schedule. It's important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well. This weekly schedule may not solve all of your problems, but it will make you more aware of how you spend your time. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have adequate time for both work and play. Plan your time carefully: topic sentence Supporting sentences 展开句 Fill in/out :write in; complete sth by putting whatever is needed Listen carefully and fill in the numbers you’ve heard from the tape. decide on: choose from two or more possibilities or make a decision about I’ve decided on leaving for New Y ork the day after tomorrow. Be sure (to do sth): not fail (to do sth) Be sure to leave adequate time for play. Be sure to write to us as soon as you get there. Be sure not to be late again. set aside：keep or save for special use or purpose Why don’t you set aside some money so that you can use it when you’re in need? as well: also , too This book tells Lu Hsun’s writings, and his life as well. With the changes in their social role, women’s position in the family has been improved as well. Be/ become aware of: know sth; know(what is happening) Are you aware of the importance of learning a foreign language? 2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject. concentrate on/ upon : give all one’s attention or efforts, etc. to I can’t concentrate on my studies, for I’m homesick.思乡 Airsick晕飞机 seasick 晕船 3. Skim before you read. This means looking over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully. As you preview the material, you get some idea of the content and how it is organized. Later when you begin to read you will recognize less important material and you may skip some of these portions. Skimming helps double your reading speed and improves your comprehension as well. Look over: examine; inspect I looked hurriedly over the apples in the basket and took one that looked good. They looked over several kinds of new bikes before making up their minds to buy. My sister is busy looking over her mail. 4. Make good use of your time in class. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.
