TranslationThe offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground. Our troops engaging the enemy at the front were faced with strong/ fierce/ stiff resistance. The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy and launch a surprise attack. To do so, however, we had to cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud. Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We started under cover of darkness and pressed on in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of luck, the temperature at night suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh froze over. Thanks to the cold weather, we arrived at our destination before dawn and began attacking the enemy from the rear. This turned the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off guard, soon surrendered.

TranslationAutomobiles changed the world during the 20th century, particularly in the United states and other industrialized nations. They are indeed of great use to us, but they have brought some hazards as well, such as noise and air pollution, and highway fatalities. It is reported that automobile accidents rang among the leading causes of death and injury throughout the world. Fortunately modern innovators are reinventing the automobile. New propulsion systems, fuels, designs, and means of manufacturing cars have all developed rapidly in the past decade. For example , by using the satellite-aided Global Positioning System (GPS), a computer in the automobile can locate the vehicle’s precise position, and with the application of sensors, smart cars can eliminate most car accidents.

It is extremely important for a job applicant to do his homework while seeking employment. From my standpoint, whether or not one has done his homework clearly makes a difference in his chance of success.I have a friend who is earning somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,000 dollars a year in a large computer software company. He told me that from his own experience the decision makers who interview prospective employees like people who are well prepared. Those who make no endeavor to learn as much about his prospective employer as possible don’t have much of a chance of success.

Translation Professor Huntington’s paper greatly inspired me. According to him, in a plural / pluralistic society, there will inevitably be different opinions. The key is to deal with them in such a way that they can play a constructive rather that destructive role.He argues that in a plural/ pluralistic society we must stress /attach importance to interpersonal relationships, cooperation, and looking at issues from the perspective of other people. If some groups regard themselves as superior and treat other ethnic groups or religions with disrespect, the whole society may be paralyzed.I am convinced that if we put into practice the ideas mentioned above, then there is the possibility of creating a new civilization.Unit 5， Book 4 Cruelty VocabularyI. 1. 1)In a way 2)clapping 3)elderly 4) in accordance with 5)vacancy 6)funks 7)current 8)in good condition 9) transparent 10)rub 11)spicy 12)hitherto 13)committed 14) with a very bad grace 15) instinct2. 1) turned up 2) stuck to 3)brought back 4) settled down5)driving at 6)away 7)touch on/upon 8)bear…out 3. 1)She has a very weak constitution—she may not be able to survive the operation. 2)I was taken aback by the insurance company’s rejection of my claim. 3)It was something of a surprise when we ran into each other in a place like that.4)…needs trimming /to be timmed—it’s getting too long. 5)…are often deceptive 4.1)Oddly enough/went broke/wrinkled/had gone all to pieces 2)a definite/evidently/was a trifle 3)shaving/stroking his/sipping II.

Translation For my own part, I should certainly hestitate to hire a clerk on his face /appearance alone. Appearances are all to often deceptive. For instance, you might well commit an error in judgment if you went by appearances only with people like Edward Hyde Burton, the characeter created by Maugham. As far as appearance and manners were concerned, Burton seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes. Kind, gentle and candid, he was described by many as one of the most respectable people on earth. Nevertheless, he turned out to be cruel to a friend in need of his help. He insulted and fooled Turner who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Turner’s dealth. Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit 6， Book 4 The Pace of LifeVocabularyI. 1. 1)appliance 2)comparative 3)mutlitply 4)oblige 5)prosperity 6)in reality 7)aircraft 8)volunteers 9) a handful of 10)distribution 11)famine 12)large quantities of / a large quantity of 13)widespread 14)streamline 15)provoke 2. 1)take back 2)cling to 3)stand out/stood out 4)set aside 5)set about 6)switch off 7)amount to 8)poured in 3. 1)…is forecast to be below average next year, which at the moment is 4 percent. 2)…seems to be some confusion over who is actually giving the talk as both men are speaking to the audience. 3)…to enter the building and find the baby girl proved futile as rescuers were driven out by the heat and flames. 4)…was urged to diver some of its attention from controlling production and get more involved with demanding issues. 5)…can really eat heavily into your profits when you are selling suits at ￡900 and dresses at￡2,000. 4.1)forum/growth/domestic market / a shortage of 2)an abundance of /springing up / the frontiers3)a burden/are always on the go /seem forever on the go/to cope II.

Dealing with the extinction crisis is no simple matter. Is it sensible, we may ask, to spend large sums of money to save some species--be it an elephant or an orchid--in a nation in which a large proportion of the population is living below the poverty line?2. This new technology could be used anywhere large numbers of people need to be quickly screened--at airport, train stations, bus terminals or border crossings. However, experts suspect, there is also the risk that people will learn to fool the machine the same way they try to fool polygraph reading by controlling their breath or taking drugs to relax themselves. 3. With a high percentage of marriages ending in divorce, often due to financial difficulties, you would say that money is a big factor in making a good marriage. But, believe it or not, it isn't money that ensures you a happy marriage; it is your philosophy of life that does. 4. Not all the risks on the Internet are sexual, you know. Sites promoting violence are just a click away, and may include instructions for making bombs and other destructive devices.5.

Translation There is no question that today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, to possess more, and to become a success. Workaholism, a modern addiction, has thus arisen. The cause of workaholism is the perception that by working longer hours and completing more projects, we will enhance our self-worth. Many women today feel the same stress to produce and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder a variety of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families. It forces us to labour longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones. Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.Unit 7， Book 4 TerrorismVocabularyI. 1. 1)faxed 2)boom 3)jogs 4)contending 5) span 6)hiking 7) pertinent 8)adolescents 9)tags 10)weaves 11)all of a sudden 12) statistical 13)string 14)disapproving 15)recurs 2. 1)has backed up 2)went off 3)is held up 4) settle for 5)be laid up 6)strike out 7) reflect on/upon 8)applied for 3. 1)...mortality rate is very high in the poorest rural areas of Africa. 2) ....we can fix it by ourselves for nothing 3)...unusual that John was among the few who arrived early at yesterday's party, for which he was praised by the hostess. 4)...a lot of maintenance whatever the cost. 5) ...(was)enveloped in thick fog.4.1)pondered for/to fax/the statistical/to back up 2)much imagination/weave /and unusual 3)maintenance/for nothing from II.

Translation A severe earthquake occurred all of a sudden at 10 a.m. Yesterday in a rural area, about 200 kilometers east of the city. Initial reports coming out of the region indicate the earthquake has caused widespread devastations/damage and heavy casualties. Many adolescents were among those injured or killed. Yet it remains obscure exactly how many people were hurt and killed as the area has been enveloped in rubble. However, one thing is certain: many of the survivors may face years of pain and suffering. Local people were clearly shaken by this reminder of their mortality. Some religious ones have gathered to pray that it will never recur.Unit 8.， Book 4 TravelVocabularyI. 1. 1)heap 2) was smeared 3) in detail 4)dissolve 5)loosed 6) slapped 7) hollows 8)tangle 9)lay/get her hands on 10)darted 11)thrashing 12)hop 13)in flocks 14)illuming 15)opaque 2. 1)take...apart 2)take up 3)rests on 4)subscribe to 5)have called for 6)came through 7)breaks down 8)runs out of 3. 1)...was dying to see the movie based on it. 2)...to the 20th floor of our office building can mute all sound.

TranslationLast Wednesday my classmate Caroline and I visited Zhouzhuang, a well-known town looped all around by streams. When we arrived at the town, Caroline was so excited that she darted towards the first bridge she saw and began singing loudly there. Suddenly her voice hushed when she found that she had startled a flock of ducks not too far from us. Now as Caroline was dying for a boat ride, we decided to tour the town by boat. Now loud, now soft, Caroline talked to all the creatures in the stream and was fussing about everything while I looked at the boats gliding over the water in all silence. Though we did not see anything spectacular, we enjoyed every minute in the town that lies out of the range of the heavy traffic and noise of the large city.Zhouzhuang is worth visiting and, time permitting, I'd like to go there again.
