Unit 1第一篇It was my first day at collage and I was hauling my suitcase up the stairs of my accommodation block with my parents close behind me. I was sharing a bedroom and sincerely hoped that my roommate would be like me, quiet, tidy and studious, someone with whom I could have lengthy philosophical conversations about the meaning of life. I was also rather hoping that I would be the first to arrive in the room so that I could grab the best bed! I opened the door and peered in, muttering a little prayer that my roommate hadnt arrived yet, then gasped in astonishment at the sight that met my eyes. Had the room be visited by a hurricane-or perhaps there had been a burglary? There had to be some explanation for the clothes that were strewn all over the floor and the beds-both beds! On both beds too were four of the most enormous suitcases I had ever seen, both of them overflowing with clothes (and not a book in sight, I noticed). Sprawled on one of the bedsthe best one, of coursewas an attractive girl dressed as if for an extremely glamorous party. She was talking animatedly on her mobile and, on hearing us enter, waved casually in our direction without so much as bothering to look up. Our mouths fell open in a collective gasp of astonishment, and we must have stood there for at least a minute waiting for her to acknowledge us. she did no such thing but instead turned to face the wall and continued her conversation. “Well!” said my mother. “Well!” My father cleared his throat nervously while I gulped. How on earth was I going to cope? Slowly the girl turned over and granted us a lazy smile. “Hi!” she said languidly. “My names Tracy. Look, Im really hoping you dont object, but Ive decided to change rooms. Do you mind?”它是我在大学里的第一天,我把我的行李箱上楼的我和我父母住宿块紧随其后。我分享一间卧室,真诚地希望我的室友会像我一样,安静,整洁,好学,能跟我冗长的哲学讨论人生的意义。我也很希望我将是第一个抵达的房间,这样我就能抓住最好的床上! 我打开门,在细看,咕哝着祈祷,我的室友还没有到达,然后喘着粗气惊讶地看到,见过我的眼睛。房间被飓风访问,或者也许有盗窃?必须有一些解释的衣服散落在地板上,床床!在两个床也最巨大的四个行李箱我所见过的,他们两人的衣服(而不是一本书,我注意到)。 躺在一个床上的最好的一个,课程是一个有吸引力的女孩身着极其迷人的聚会。她活生生地在她的移动和说话,听到我们进入,挥舞着随便在我们的方向不懒得抬头。嘴里倒在一个集体惊讶的喘息,我们必须站在那里至少一分钟等待她承认我们。她没有这样做,而是转过头来面对着墙,继续她的谈话。 “好吧!”我妈说。“好吧!” 我父亲紧张地清了清嗓子,我一饮而尽。我在地球上是如何去应对呢?慢慢的女孩了,答应给我们一个慵懒的笑容。“嗨!”她阴沉地说。“我的名字是特蕾西。看,我真的希望你不反对,但我决定改变房间。你介意吗?”问题;1.

And Im doing it for Rag Week! Rag Week!” Lenny jumped. When he hit the ground (safely!) 30 seconds later, not only had Lenny made his first parachute jump, he had also succeeded in raising $400 for Save the Children, one of the charities sponsored by his University Rag Society. Skydiving is one of the many unusual activities that students do during Rag Week, when students all over the country raise money for charity. Other events include bungee jumping, 3-legged races, anything in fact that will attract attention and encourage people to sponsor them. “Hitches”, for example, involve raising sponsorship to hitchhike to an exciting destination without spending any money. Theres even “kidnapping”, where, as the name suggests, someone is kidnapped and a ransom is demanded for their return. Traditionally , theres also a colorful parade through the streets with students collecting money from the public. The term “Rag” has its origins in the 19th century when students used to collect rags to make clothes for the poor. More recently, “Rag” has been given the meaning “Raise and Give”. Rag Week is one of the most enjoyable and successful events in the student year, with large sums of money raised for good causes. Fundraising doesnt stop at Rag Week as Student Rag Societies organize charity events throughout the year. Recently, Loughborough Universitys Student Rag Society raised almost $1000000, Long may the “Rag” tradition continue!在上午11.43,上周二,大学生Lenny霍华德正站在一架小型飞机舱口打开瞪着地面3500英尺深。“好了,小伙子,”降落伞教练轻快地说。“准备跳十!” “我是疯了!”莱尼想。“我受不了高度和我在这里跳到天空一无所有但是有点布在我背上。和我做抹布星期!破布一周!” 莱尼吓了一跳。当他撞到地面(安全)30秒后,不仅有莱尼首次跳伞,他还成功地为拯救儿童筹集400美元,他的慈善机构赞助一个社会大学的破布。跳伞是许多不寻常的活动,学生们做抹布一周,当学生在全国各地为慈善事业筹集资金。其他活动包括蹦极、3 - leg种族,任何事实会吸引注意力和鼓励人们赞助他们。“故障”,例如,涉及提高赞助搭便车到一个令人兴奋的目的地不花一分钱。甚至还有“绑架”,顾名思义,有人绑架和赎金要求为他们的回报。传统上,还有一个丰富多彩的游行在街上与学生收集资金从公众。 “抹布”一词起源于19世纪当学生用于收集碎布为穷人做衣服。最近,“抹布”的意义“提高,给”。破布一周是最愉快和成功的事件在学生,对公益事业筹集大笔资金。融资并不停在破布一周学生破布全年社会组织慈善活动。最近,拉夫堡大学的学生抹布社会筹集了近1000000美元,长期可能“抹布”传统继续! 问题：1.

If you dont believe it, listen to the songs. Go to the movies. “the look of love shines through her eyes.” The lover stares intently into the eyes of his beloved and she gazes back adoringly. Often, we only have to glance at someones eyes to ascertain their mood.And its not just the expression in the eyes that tells you how people are feeling. The amount you blink can tell people whether you are nervous or hiding something. American researchers counted the number of times presidential candidates blinked during televised debates and discovered that the biggest “blinker” had lost every debate and also every presidential election since 1982.And yet the eyes are just an organ of the body, a lens supported by a network of neurones that convey electrical messages that converted into meaning by the brain. So what is it about the eyes that enable them to convey feelings? Its well-known that when you are feeling affectionate or excited your pupils dilate. The effect of a dilated pupil is to make the person looking at you think that you like them, despite the fact that they have not consciously noted the dilation. Less well-known is the fact that when the pupil dilates, the iris (the coloured party of the eye),forms tiny hollows and lines. Fascinatingly, in the recent study, it was found that those with more hollows are likely to be worried. But when all is said and done, no matter what scientists discover, its what happens then you look into someones eyes thats important. You gaze into your beloveds and they gaze back adoringly. No science can explain real romance.为什么眼睛是透露我们的情绪呢?如果你不相信,听的歌曲。去看电影。通过她的眼睛“的爱照耀。“他心爱的情人瞪大了眼睛盯着专心和她敬慕地凝视着回来的。通常情况下,我们只有看别人的眼睛,以确定他们的情绪。而且不只是表达的眼睛,告诉你人的感觉。你眨眼的数量可以告诉人们,无论你是紧张或隐藏着什么。美国研究人员数总统候选人电视辩论中眨了眨眼睛的次数,发现最大的“信号灯”失去了每个辩论也是1982年以来的每一次总统选举。然而,眼睛只是身体的一个器官,镜头由一个神经元网络,传递电子的消息转换成意义的大脑。那么是什么使他们的眼睛传达感情吗?众所周知,当你感到亲切和兴奋你的瞳孔放大。瞳孔的效果是让人看着你认为你喜欢他们,尽管他们没有有意识地注意到扩张。鲜为人知的是,瞳孔,虹膜(眼睛的有色党),形成微小凹陷和线条。迷中,人人地,在最近的研究们发现那些凹陷可能会担心。但是当所有所说的和所做的,不管科学家发现什么,然后会发生什么你看着某人的眼睛,很重要。你凝视你,至爱的人类,他们的目光敬慕地回来。没有科学可以解释真正的浪漫。问题：1.

One of the distinctions he make between cultures is with regard to whether they are emotional neutral, by which he means that some cultures like to show their emotions while other prefer to conceal them. China, trompenaars believes, is a neutral culture. The British would describe themselves as neutral but they also think it is important to be “a nice person!”. This often confuses foreigners, who respond to British friendliness by saying “What a nice person!”, not realizing that the British are being pleasant because it is socially a more acceptable way of behaving than being unfriendly. We have to be careful, though, since Britain consists of four regions, England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and when people describe the British as unemotional they are usually referring to the English. The latter are, or were famous for having a “stiff upper lip”, in other words, a “lip” that never trembles, no matter how painful or upsetting the circumstances are. In December 1997, however, an extraordinary thing happened. Diana, Princess of wales, ex-wife of the heir to the English throne, was killed in a car crash. Diana was famous for her devotion to good causes and also for showing her emotions, a habit that many people loved her for. Bouquets of flowers several metres deep were laid outside her London home and there was a huge public outpouring of grief. At the time people said the famous British reserve had gone forever. But ten years later, has the British character changed ? Certainly, reality TV is full of loud, talkative Brits, and people are much happier to talk about problems that would previously have kept quiet about. Nonetheless, most people would probably agree that essentially the British character remains the same-the upper lip is perhaps not quite so stiff, but in difficulty circumstances it still does its best not to tremble!弗恩斯特朗皮纳斯谈到荷兰心理学家专攻理解其他的文化。他使文化间的差别之一是关于是否情感中立,他意味着一些文化喜欢显示自己的情绪而其他喜欢隐藏他们。他谈到认为,中国是一个中立的文化。英国人会认为自己是中立的,但他们也认为这是非常重要的“一个好人!”。这往往混淆外国人,英国友好回应说“真是个好人!”,而不是认识到英国是愉快的,因为它是社会可接受的行为方式不是不友好。 我们必须小心,因为英国由四个区域,英格兰,苏格兰,威尔士和北爱尔兰,当人们形容英国非感情的他们通常指的是英语。后者,还是著名的“僵硬的上嘴唇”,换句话说,“唇”,从不畏惧,无论多么痛苦或倾覆情节。然而,在1997年12月,一件非同寻常的事发生了。戴安娜,威尔士王妃,英国王位继承人的前妻在一场车祸中丧生。戴安娜是著名的为她献身于公益事业,也让她的情绪,一种习惯,很多人喜欢她。束鲜花几米深的伦敦是在她家里,有一个巨大的公众的悲痛的声音。 当时人们说英国著名储备已经一去不复返了。但十年之后,英国的角色改变了吗?当然,电视真人秀充斥着喧嚣的,健谈的英国人,人们更乐于谈论问题,以前会保持沉默。尽管如此,大多数人可能会认为,本质上是英国字符保持不变上唇也许不那么僵硬,但在困难的情况下它还是最好不要颤抖! 问题：对1. Trompenaars states that some cultural are more emotional than others (对)1。他谈到,一些文化比其他人更情绪化对2.

It was felt that the publics reaction to Dianas death showed that the British had become much more emotional 8.The writer feels that today, the British are much more likely to shoe strong emotions when they are upset 3。作者说,英国不是像他们似乎不错。(对)4。作者说,英语是众所周知的在任何时候不表现自己的情绪5。戴安娜,威尔士王妃,很少显示出她的情绪(对)6。戴安娜死后,很多人非常沮丧对7。这是觉得公众对戴安娜之死的反应表明,英国已经成为更多的情感8。作者认为今天,英国人更倾向于鞋时强烈的情绪沮丧 Unit 3:第一篇： On 18 April 1996 the would was shocked by the news that a 25-year-old student at the university of Texas in Austen, US, had gone on a shooting rampage there, killing 14 people and wounding 31 others. This brutal massacre was the first instance of a worldwide phenomenon which become known as school shootings, commit murder, sometimes mass murder, at an educational institution, often their own. A surprisingly large number of these shootings have occurred in America，with 46 school shootings taking there between 1996 and 2006. One of the most talked-about shootings is the Columbine High School massage of 20 April 1999 in which two students, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, embarked on a killing spree resulting in the deaths of 12 of their fellow students and the wounding of 23 others, before committing suicide in the school library. Horrifying as this event was, it has since been dwarfed in magnitude by the Virginia Tech massacre, as it is known, which took place on April 16, 2007 on the campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech), and in which 32 people were killed and many others wounded. The perpetrator was Seung-Hui-Cho, a 23-year-old South Korean with US permanent resident status, who was studying at the university, Like Harris and Klebold, he committed suicide at the end of attacks. Inevitably, there has been intense discussion as to what causes individuals to inflict such violence on their fellow students, and some striking similarities between the perpetrators have emerged. Frequently the victims of bullying, they tend to be excluded from the social groups they attempt to join, display great anger before the murder and are recognized as having psychological problems. They plan the event carefully and give warnings that “something” is going to happen. The killings are motivated by revenge on those who they see as rejecting them.1996年4月18日将是震惊的消息,一个25岁的学生在奥斯汀的得克萨斯大学的,我们已经在枪击事件,造成14人死亡,31人受伤。这个残酷的屠杀是第一个实例的一个世界性的现象被称为学校枪击事件,谋杀,有时大屠杀,在一个教育机构,通常他们自己的。 有数量惊人的这些枪击事件发生在美国,有46个学校枪击事件在1996年和2006年之间。最热门的枪击事件是1999年4月20日的科隆比纳高中按摩两个学生,埃里克哈里斯和迪伦克莱伯德开始了杀戮的狂欢导致的死亡12的同学,23人受伤,在自杀之前在学校图书馆。这事件是恐怖的,它已经被小巫见大巫级弗吉尼亚理工大学枪杀案,众所周知,它发生在4月16日2007年弗吉尼亚理工学院和州立大学的校园(弗吉尼亚理工大学),32人死亡,许多人受伤。肇事者是Seung-Hui-Cho,一名23岁的韩国与美国永久居民身份,大学学习,像哈里斯和苏珊,他自杀的攻击。 不可避免的,有激烈的讨论,是什么原因导致个体对同学造成这种暴力,和一些惊人的相似之处肇事者已经出现。经常欺负的受害者,他们往往被排除在社会团体试图加入,显示大怒之前谋杀和被认为是一种心理问题。他们仔细计划的事件,给警告,“东西”都不会发生。杀戮是出于报复那些他们认为拒绝。 问题：1.
