Unit4Growingup（譯林版）人與自我：學習與生活單元引言解讀Adversityisanecessaryprocessofgrowth.Thosewhodaretoacceptadversitywillgrowstrongerandstrongerdaybyday.釋義：逆境是成長必經(jīng)的過程，能勇于接受逆境的人，生命就會日漸的茁壯。啟示：“能勇于接受逆境的人，生命就會日漸的茁壯”這句話告訴我們：在人生的道路上，我們應該勇敢地面對并接受各種逆境和挑戰(zhàn)，因為只有這樣，我們的生命才能夠真正地茁壯成長并綻放出更加絢麗的光彩。?名言名句積累人與自我1.Growthisneverbymerechance;itistheresultofforcesworkingtogether."-JamesCashPenney成長從不是偶然，而是各種力量共同作用的結果?！材匪埂たㄊ病づ砟?.Thegreatestgloryinlivingliesnotinneverfalling,butinrisingeverytimewefall."-NelsonMandela生活的最大榮耀不在于永不跌倒，而在于每次跌倒后都能重新站起來?！{爾遜·曼德拉3.Growthispainful.Changeispainful.Butnothingisaspainfulasstayingstucksomewhereyoudon'tbelong."成長是痛苦的，改變也是痛苦的。但沒有什么比停留在不屬于你的地方更痛苦的了。4.Theonlypersonyouaredestinedtobecomeisthepersonyoudecidetobe."-RalphWaldoEmerson你注定會成為的那個人，就是你自己決定要成為的那個人?！瓲柗颉の譅柖唷勰?.Theso-calledgrowthistoforceyoutobeaperson,staggeringinjury,stumblingstrong.所謂成長，就是逼著你一個人，踉踉蹌蹌的受傷，跌跌撞撞的堅強。時文拓展閱讀GrowingupGrowingupisajourneyfullofchangesanddiscoveries.Aschildren,westartoffwithaworldofwonder,asking"why"toeverythingaroundus.Welearntowalk,talk,andexploretheworldwithcuriosity.Withtime,wegrowtaller,ourmindsexpandwithknowledge,andwebegintounderstandmorecomplexconcepts.Wemakefriends,experiencethejoyofsharing,andsometimesthepainofdisagreements.Schoolbecomesaplacenotjustforlearningmathandreading,butalsoforlearningaboutteamwork,leadership,andempathy.Growingupalsomeansfacingchallenges.Welearntotakeresponsibilityforouractions,makedecisions,anddealwiththeconsequences.Wediscoverourpassionsandtalents,whichguideustowardsourdreamsandfuturecareers.However,growingupisnotjustaboutbecominganadult.It'saboutdevelopingastrongcharacter,beingkind,andrespectingothers.It'saboutmakingmistakesandlearningfromthem.It'saboutunderstandingthatit'sokaytobedifferentandthateveryonehastheirownuniquepathinlife.Inconclusion,growingupisabeautifulandsometimesbumpyroad.It'saboutlearning,changing,andbecomingthebestversionofourselves.It'satimetocherish,asitshapeswhoweareandwhowewillbecome.翻譯成長成長是一段充滿變化和發(fā)現(xiàn)的旅程。小時候，我們從一個充滿驚奇的世界開始，問周圍的一切“為什么”。我們學會了帶著好奇心走路、說話和探索世界。隨著時間的推移，我們長高了，我們的思想隨著知識而擴展，我們開始理解更復雜的概念。我們交朋友，體驗分享的樂趣，有時也會經(jīng)歷分歧的痛苦。學校不僅成為學習數(shù)學和閱讀的地方，也是學習團隊合作、領導力和同理心的地方。成長也意味著要面對挑戰(zhàn)。我們學會為自己的行為負責，做出決定，并應對后果。我們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的激情和才能，這引導我們走向夢想和未來的職業(yè)生涯。然而，成長不僅僅是成為一個成年人。這是關于培養(yǎng)堅強的性格、善良和尊重他人。這是關于犯錯誤并從中吸取教訓。這是關于理解與眾不同是可以的，每個人都有自己獨特的人生道路?？傊?，成長是一條美麗而有時崎嶇不平的道路。這是關于學習、改變和成為最好的自己。這是一個值得珍惜的時刻，因為它塑造了我們是誰，我們將成為誰。綜合實戰(zhàn)演練（2024·山東煙臺）WangariMaathai,aNobelPeacePrizewinner,wasbornonApril1,1940,inKenya(肯尼亞).Growingupinthecountryside,Wangariwasdeeplyconnectedtothelandfromanearlyage.Thisearlyexperiencewiththeenvironmentlaterinspiredherlife’swork,whichhasleftanunforgettablemarkontheworld.Withthehelpofaprogram,WangarireceivedheruniversityeducationintheUnitedStates.Aftergraduation,shereturnedtoKenya.In1971,shegotadoctor’sdegreefromtheUniversityofNairobi,becomingthefirstwomandoctorinEastandCentralAfrica.Buthergreaterachievementwasoutsidetheuniversity.In1977,WangarisetuptheGreenBeltMovement,anorganizationfocusedontreeplanting,environmentalprotection,andwomen’srights.ShecalledonKenyanwomentoplanttreesintheirhometown.Thissimpleactnotonlyhelpedtoprotecttheenvironmentbutalsomadewomenpowerfuleconomically(經(jīng)濟地)andsocially.Wangarifocusednotonlyonenvironmentalproblems.Shemadegreateffortstofightfordemocracy(民主),humanrights,andsocialfairness.Heractivism(激進主義)oftenputherindisagreementwiththeKenyangovernment.Asaresult,shewasputinprison(監(jiān)獄)severaltimes,butshekeptfightingbravely.ItwasbecauseofhertirelessworkthatshewasawardedtheNobelPeacePrizein2004.ShebecamethefirstAfricanwomantoreceivetheaward.WangaripassedawayonSeptember25,2011,butherspiritcontinuestoinspireaworldwidemovementtowardsenvironmentalprotectionandsocialfairness.Herbook,Unbowed,recordsherlifejourneyandthechallengesshefaced,offeringaninspirationtocountlesspeopleworldwide.HerstorylivesonthroughthemillionsoftreesplantedbytheGreenBeltMovementandthecountlesslivesshetouchedthroughherhardwork.Itservesasareminderthateventhesmallestactions,likeplantingatree,canhaveagreatinfluenceontheworld.1．ForwhatpurposedoesthewritermentionWangari’searlylifeinParagraph1?A．Todescribehowshegrewupinthecountryside.B．Totelluswhyshestudiedhardforadoctor’sdegree.C．Toexplainwhyshecaredforenvironmentalproblems.D．ToshowhowshebecameaNobelPeacePrizewinner.2．Whatdoestheunderlinedpart“Thissimpleact”meaninParagraph2?A．Settingupanorganization.
