Unit1

When I think of people in this world who have really made a difference, I think of my parents. They were truly saints among ordinary people.

I was one of the ten children my parents adopted. They rescued(挽救) each of us from a life of poverty(贫穷) and loneliness孤独). They were hardly able to restrain(克制) themselves from bringing home more children to care for. If they had had the resources(资源) they certainly would have.

Most people do not realize how much they appreciated (感激) someone until they pass away(大多数人都不知道他们有多么感激一个人,直到那个人去世). My sisters and brothers and I did not want this to happen before we uttered(说) the words "Thank you" to our parents(我的妹妹和弟弟和我都不想在我们对父母说谢谢你之前让这件事发生).

Although we have all grown up and scattered(散落) about the country, we got back together to thank our parents. My brother Tom undertook(从事,承担) the task of organizing the event. Every Friday night, Mom and Dad have had the ham dinner special at the same restaurant for the last twenty years. That is where we waited without their knowing. When we first caught a glimpse(瞥一眼) of them coming across the street, we all hid underneath(在之下) a big table. When they entered, we leapt(跳出来) out and shouted, "Thank you, Mom and Dad." My brother Tom presented 提供)them with a card(办法,手段,妙计) and we all hugged(拥抱). My Dad pretended(假装) that he had known we were under the table all along.

Unit2

Women who exercise regularly need to be careful with what they eat. Researchers have found evidence(证据,迹象) that even moderate(适度的) exercise can result in losing iron. They said that women who exercise regularly, especially in endurance(耐久) activities, typically lose iron. In order to prevent this from becoming a problem(为了防止这成为问题), it is important that those women consume more meat吃肉) or take supplements补充) to replace(取代) the iron lost. Those who do not bother to get plentiful amounts of iron(嫌麻烦不愿意获得大量铁的人) may begin to feel weak and tired. "If you can get the recommended daily allowance(按定量供给) of iron in your diet(如果你能每天服用推荐铁的含量), you will probably perform better," said one diet specialist. "One shortcoming(缺点) of taking iron pills is that the pill form is not well absorbed专心致志,全神贯注) and can sometimes make you sick. It is preferable可取的) that you try to remedy(治疗) the deficiency(缺点) by getting more iron-rich meats(红肉) in your diet."

There are ways to help your body store(储存) away(一直在做 the iron it takes in. By getting plenty of Vitamin C, your body is able to process(处理), or use, the iron better. Researchers acknowledge(承认,声明) that everyone's body is different and the problem will be less serious for some. Because it is impossible to decide whether or not this could be a problem for you, health specialists say健康专家说) it is advisable明智的) to check your iron levels. Even when you can't feel it, you may still have a problem.

Unit3

While many private schools are focusing more on values(重视), public schools are moving toward testing standards. The national government demands(需要) academic(学术上的) success and tests are taken as a key measurement(量度;份量,尺寸; for a school's performance(表现). Schools with low test scores face penalties(惩罚) such as a reduction(减少) in money to run(经营) their schools. And, even individual teachers are being graded on(分级) how they're preparing their students for these tests.

"We have concentrated(集中的,全神贯注的) too much on teaching the kids how to take these tests," commented(评论) one elementary school teacher初中老师). "We should be providing a more comprehensive(综合的,全面的) curriculum课程 to these kids. We should be cultivating(改善,培养) leadership and curiosity(领导能力和好奇心). Unfortunately, there is never time."

One school principal remarked(重要的评论), "It's true that it would be beneficial(有益的) to our kids if they were getting better scores on the subjects being tested. The trouble is that in poorer areas of the city like ours, kids start school less equipped(被装备) to perform工作 well. We have many obstacles(障碍) to overcome(战胜,压倒) before we can teach them basic subjects. All schools are not alike(同样地) , so they shouldn't be tested that way."

"The goal is to improve performance in schools that are not providing(提供) their students with tools for success," said one government official. He admits(承认), however, that he is having a hard time convincing faculty(说服全体教职员工) and teachers this plan will work.

Unit 4

For many, beauty and fashion are permanently linked. With regard to fashion, the Barbie doll has been consistently in style. From the first Barbie dolls, Mattel took care to dress them in detailed, fashionable clothes. Some observers note that the fashions of the Barbie doll trace fashion trends perfectly since 1959.While critics complain that model do not represent "average" female bodies, they also complain about the Barbie doll's size. Some have criticized the dimensions of the Barbie doll as an unattainable ideal of the female shape.

Charlotte John, the Barbie doll's first dress designer, explained that the doll was not intended to reflect a female figure realistically, but rather to portray an exaggerated shape underneath fashionable clothes. However, the unrealistic dimensions of the doll have brought the strongest criticism regarding the doll's encouragement of an obsession with weight and looks.

Convinced of the negative effects of the Barbie doll on children, Cathy Meredig of High Self Esteem Toys developed a more realistically proportioned doll in 1991.Her doll didn't sell well, however. Throughout the years, the Barbie doll has several competitors, but none have been able to compete with the glamor offered by the Barbie doll.


Unit5

As a surgeon(外科医生,军医), I have seen a lot of deaths. I am rarely astonished(很少惊讶) by anything. The other day, however, one humorous and slightly odd story(轻微奇怪的故事) I heard touched me. A doctor told me that a very old woman he was treating was lying motionless(静止不动的) on her pillow face down. He thought she was dead, but when he approached(靠近), he noticed she was breathing. Her hospital gown(病服) exposed(暴露出) her back bare(赤裸的后背), so he put a cover over her. Just then she sat up slowly(慢慢的做起来), startling(令人吃惊的) the doctor. She seemed quite alive.

"I thought you were nearly gone," the doctor said. "Your breathing was so shallow(微弱的) and you seemed lifeless(毫无生气的)."

"Never mind that, doctor, I've been waiting for you," the old woman said quite confidently, as if she were his mother. She had been a good mother to four, but she had survived(幸存,活的更长) them all. She gracefully handed the doctor a jar(罐子) of strawberry jam. "Take the lid off(拿掉盖子) and try some," she said. He sampled(品尝) a little and told her it was delicious.

"Good," she said, handing him a piece of paper with writing. "This is how to make it." He understood what a(n) privilege(特权,权益) she had given him and took it with thanks and then left. The old woman lay back down and died soon after his departure(离开).

Unit6

Do you know February 2nd is Groundhog's Day (土拨鼠日)? Legend has it that on this morning(传说在这天早上), if a groundhog can see its shadow(影子), 如果一个土拨鼠能看见自己的影子,there will be six more weeks of winter(就会有多于六周的冬季). If it cannot see its shadow, spring is on the way(如果不能看见,春天就快来了). Some believe that the means of forecast is rather arbitrary(主观的,随意的) and is often incorrect(有些人认为这个预言是乱说的,通常是错误的). Others argue that it is significant(有重大意义的) because it recognizes that the different parts of nature are connected in some way(一些人争论那是有重大意义的,因为那是一种识别大自然的不同部分间是有联系的一种方式). Each part is dependent(依赖于) on the rest of the parts for a healthy system(对于一个健康的系统来说,每一部分又依赖于剩下的那一部分). Some farmers pay close attention to the behavior of ducks and geese when predicting(预测) the weather(一些农民在预测天气的时候会密切注意鸭子和鹅的行为). It is sensible(合理的) to guess an early winter is coming when you see ducks and geese moving south in October(如果你看到鸭子和鹅在十月份迁移到南方,那么你猜测冬天快要来了是合理的). Many dog owners can tell when winter or spring will come by stroking(轻抚) their pet(狗的主人通过轻抚他们的宠物能够知道冬天或春天将要来临). In preparation for winter, a dog's hair becomes thicker(狗的毛会变密). Dogs lose hair as spring sets in(狗在春天脱毛).

Information gathered from nature can help people to take precautions(预防) against a hard winter or bad storm(从大自然采集信息能够帮助人们预防对抗一个寒冷的冬天和一场恶劣的风暴). Some animals are even believed to be able to detect(洞察) when an earthquake will occur(一些动物甚至被人们相信能够察觉地震将要发生). People holding this belief even go further(更进一步) to say that information gathered by computers is often worthless and nature is far more accurate(准确的)(人们坚持相信甚至更进一步说,通过电脑采集的信息是没有价值的,通过自然才是更准确的): Isn't it time we started paying attention to what is around us?

Unit 7

Bill Gates is known around the world for the founding of Microsoft. And, most people are quite aware that his evolution from computer hacker to the world's richest man was due in large part to his partner Paul Allen. But, while Gates' fame has mushroomed since the beginning of Microsoft, Allen has remained less famous. Many around the world have followed the life Gates, but are ignorant of what has happened to Allen. In fact, as most in the Northwest can tell you, Allen has made quite an impact on the region and the world. In 2000, he retired from Microsoft, but the company retains him as a permanent advisor to top executives. Not all of Allen's interests involve commercial success. Allen has given four hundred million dollars in charity to University of Washington for science and technology research. He created the Experience Music Project in Seattle, employing famous architect Frank Gehry to design the building, with modernizing Hollywood's movie technology .His film studio is the most advanced in the world. He has also built a sports empire, buying both a basketball and a football team as well as helping to support a local stadium, and he owns a sports magazine. Oh, let's not forget, Allen is the seventh richest man in the entire world. Not bad.

Unit 9

My friend, Anna, said to me before I married Mike, "He's fine now, but wait until after you've married him." She thought that her own experience with marriage was applicable to mine. Without even being asked, she cited all of the problems she's had with her husband. The disputes ranged from him not sharing responsibility for household tasks to how often he went out at night. And every time, Anna complained, her husband would find justification for what he did." If I were you," she advised, "I'd get everything documented in writing. If there is something desirable about him now, make sure you get an agreement from him that he will continue it after you are married." I tried to dispose of her advice saying that I thought Mike and I could handle it without such an agreement. She just dismissed what I had to say with laughter." You can't believe him just because what he said. Once you marry him, he'll think he owns you, and everything will change," she said.

I tried to ignore her advice, but the next day I changed my mind and talked to Mike. "Mike," I said," I'm not going to marry you unless you promise to always stay the same."

He replied, "You've been talking to Anna again, haven't you?"
