Whenever there is a contradiction between the interest of nation and their own, Chinese heroes always choose to sacrifice themselves. Both Liu Hulan and Dong Cunrui are household names in China. Liu was a 15-year-old girl killed by the enemy in 1947 for being actively involved in liberation of China. And Dong was a soldier who blew off the enemy blockhouse by holding a pack of explosives in his hand and killed himself in the explosion. However, it is open to question whether they can still be role models today since the criteria for heroes have diversified along with the passage of time. Unit21.他們的一些罪行駭人聽聞，簡(jiǎn)直令人毛骨悚然。Some of their offences are so awful that they would chill the blood . 2. 材料包括但不限于洋蔥、奶酪、西紅柿和黑胡椒 。 The ingredients included but were not limited to onions, cheese, tomatoes and black pepper3.他認(rèn)為總經(jīng)理如此重視那些日常瑣事很荒唐He considered it ridiculous for the general manager to attach so much importance to those routine trifles.4. 我們沒(méi)人打破物理定律，不然就有人獲諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)了！ We didnt break the laws of physics, or else someone would be getting the Nobel Prize! 5. 越來(lái)越多的醫(yī)學(xué)證據(jù)表明了皮膚癌與在日光下暴露皮膚的明確關(guān)聯(lián) 。Mounting medical evidence showed the clear link between sun exposure and skin cancer漢語(yǔ)常被認(rèn)為是一種非常古老的語(yǔ)言。從某種意義上說(shuō)，這種說(shuō)法不免失之偏頗。人類所有的語(yǔ)言都可追溯到朦朧的史前時(shí)期(prehistory)，但目前我們還無(wú)法確定這些語(yǔ)言是否都同宗同源。五千年前華夏祖先說(shuō)漢語(yǔ)的方法同英語(yǔ)人士的祖先說(shuō)英語(yǔ)的方式大致相似。而從另一種意義上說(shuō)，漢語(yǔ)確實(shí)也是一種很古老的語(yǔ)言。今天所存留下來(lái)的最早的漢字已有近四千年的歷史。這些文字均為甲骨雕文( incisions on bones and tortoise shell )。 Chinese is often termed as a very old language. In a sense such a statement is misleading. All human languages go back to the dim uncertainty of prehistory, and at present we have no way of knowing for sure whether or not they can all be traced back to the same root. Five thousand years ago the ancestors of Chinese people spoke an early form of Chinese language in much the same way that the ancestors of English-speaking people were using English. In another sense, however, Chinese is indeed a very old language. The earliest written forms of Chinese in existence today date back nearly 4,000 years. These writings are incisions on bones and tortoise shell. Unit3去年年底公布的一次全國(guó)范圍的調(diào)研結(jié)果描繪了18至19歲的一代青年人對(duì)公眾事件漠不關(guān)心的現(xiàn)象。這一代青年與以前的青年相比，所知的更少，所關(guān)心的更少，也更少評(píng)論領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人和社會(huì)制度。這一代人對(duì)政治、政府乃至有關(guān)外面世界的新聞報(bào)道的冷漠態(tài)度已經(jīng)開始影響中國(guó)的政治和社會(huì)。至今還沒(méi)有人能充分地解釋這一現(xiàn)象。也許缺乏能鼓動(dòng)人心的事件，家庭的衰落以及網(wǎng)絡(luò)的興起可以解釋一二。年輕人自己則認(rèn)為這是公民教育的缺陷引起，并且不斷地談到他們的壓力對(duì)就業(yè)和成績(jī)?nèi)σ愿暗年P(guān)注以及對(duì)職業(yè)前景的擔(dān)憂。The findings of a national study released late last year paint a portrait of a generation of young adults, from 18 to 19 years of age, who are indifferent toward public affairs. It is a generation that knows less, cares less, and is less critical of its leaders and institutions than young people in the past. The indifference of this generation - to politics, to government, even to news about the outside world - is beginning to affect Chinese politics and society. No one has yet offered a full explanation why this should be so. The lack of mobilizing issues is part of the answer, as are the decline of the family and the rise of internet. Young people themselves mention the weakness of their civic education, and they talk incessantly of stress - their preoccupation with getting jobs or grades and their concern about their job prospects.1.天氣驟然變壞，尋找傷員的工作要加緊進(jìn)行。 Efforts to reach the injured men should be intensified because of the sudden deterioration in weather conditions2.有些人可能沉溺于網(wǎng)上沖浪，這會(huì)危害他們的身心健康。 Some people may be addicted to net surfing, which impairs their physical and mental health.3.地球和它表面的一切，不管是有生命的還是沒(méi)有生命的，相互作用來(lái)影響我們的生活。 The Earth and everything on it, living and nonliving, interact to exert influence on the life we have.4.窮人和殘疾人依靠政府的救濟(jì)維持生計(jì)。 Needy and handicapped people depend on government relief for their support.5.到目前為止，還沒(méi)有跡象表明人們對(duì)此品牌感到疲倦。So far there is no sign of fatigue with the brand.

Even if somebody seems to know, it is still “crossing a river by feeling for the stones”.最近幾年，出國(guó)留學(xué)的人有不斷上升的趨勢(shì)。許多中國(guó)學(xué)生想要了解西方的文化和商業(yè)經(jīng)濟(jì)。然而，也有一些學(xué)生想要移民出去。開始時(shí)他們可能覺(jué)得挺開心，但隨著時(shí)間的推移，他們會(huì)覺(jué)得在一個(gè)不同文化的國(guó)家生活非常困難，或感覺(jué)受到不平等待遇。為了拿到綠卡，他們不惜一切代價(jià)地拼命工作。然而當(dāng)他們拿到了綠卡，他們可能發(fā)現(xiàn)真正的問(wèn)題在于一些人因?yàn)樗麄兪莵喼奕硕缫曀麄?。這使得中國(guó)人在國(guó)外生活非常艱難。 In recent years, studying abroad has flourished. Many Chinese students want to learn more about western culture and business. However, some students want to study abroad in order to move there. They might be happy at the beginning, but as time goes by they might find living in a different culture very difficult. They might also find that they arent treated as equals. In order to get a green card some people will work hard and pour their heart and soul into this endeavor. When they get the green card, however, they might discover that some people discriminate against them because they are Asians, which makes it difficult for Chinese to live abroad. Uint51. 不遵守學(xué)校規(guī)章制度的學(xué)生會(huì)被開除。Students can be expelled for refusing to conform to school rules. 2. 極度憤怒只會(huì)導(dǎo)致不愉快的結(jié)果。Extreme anger can only lead to unpleasant outcomes. 3. 現(xiàn)在，公司關(guān)心的事情就是有效地進(jìn)行廢物處理和提高利潤(rùn)。Currently, what the company cares about are efficient waste disposal and higher profits. 4. 在你決定想要做什么工作之前，你可以考慮一下找一份臨時(shí)工作。You might consider finding temporary work before you decide what you want to do. 5. 如果對(duì)團(tuán)隊(duì)協(xié)作的重要性意識(shí)不足，我們就得承受失敗的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。If we do not have strong awareness of the significance of teamwork, we will run the risk of failure. 中國(guó)人的消費(fèi)態(tài)度發(fā)生了巨大轉(zhuǎn)變。隨著旅游增多，中國(guó)人不但開闊了視野，接觸到的奢侈品范圍也更加寬廣。一旦出國(guó)，他們最熱衷的活動(dòng)就是購(gòu)物。許多奢侈品公司視中國(guó)消費(fèi)者為一個(gè)潛在的龐大消費(fèi)群體：重視地位，日益富裕，渴望名牌，狂熱消費(fèi)。據(jù)估計(jì)，現(xiàn)在約有1000到1300萬(wàn)大陸人消費(fèi)奢侈品，主要是企業(yè)家和在跨國(guó)公司工作的年輕專業(yè)人士。 In China, attitudes to consumption have changed dramatically. As the Chinese travel more, they are broadening not only their minds but also the range of luxury goods they come into contact with. Once abroad, their favourite activity seems to be shopping. Many luxury firms see Chinese shoppers as a potentially huge group of status-conscious, increasingly wealthy people hungry for brands and fanatical about shopping. Its estimated there are now around 10m-13m mainland customers for luxury goods mostly entrepreneurs and young professionals working for multinational firms.Unit6 1. 他用冷漠的態(tài)度面對(duì)別人的侮辱。He reacted to the insult by acting as cold as ice. 2. 在生活中，有原則的人寧愿死得有尊嚴(yán)也不愿茍且偷生。 In life, a man of principle prefers to die with dignity instead of living in disgrace.3. 幾個(gè)警察不得不護(hù)送這位裁判離開足球場(chǎng)。 Several policemen had to escort the referee from the football field . 4. 她總覺(jué)得自己受制于人。 She always has the feeling that she is being manipulated.5. 萬(wàn)一有特殊情況，學(xué)生們應(yīng)該向警察求助 。In case of exceptional circumstances, students should t
