Unit1 攻势已经持续了三天，但是我们并没有取得多少进展。师长（division commander）命令我们营（battalion）夜晚绕道敌人后方发起突然袭击。然而，要绕到敌人后方，我们必须越过一片沼泽地（marshland）。我们很多人担心会陷入泥潭之中。我们营长决定冒一下险。所幸由于寒冷天气沼泽地都结上了冰，我们于天亮前到达目的地并从敌人后方发起进攻。这一下扭转了战局。敌人没有戒备，不久便投降了。

Thanks to
instruct The offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground.The division commander instructed our battalion to get around 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.By a stroke of luck, thanks to the cold weather which made the marshland freeze over, 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.Unit 2
汽车自从发明以来使交通运输发生了革命性的变化，永远地改变了人们的生活、旅行和办事的方式。但另一方面，也带来了危害，尤其是公路死亡事故。然而，现今由于计算机技术和电子传感器的使用，有可能消除发生的大多数交通事故。例如，装在你汽车上的电子传感器能检测到空气中的酒精雾汽并拒绝启动引擎。同样，传感器还能通过接受在轨道上运行的卫星发出的信号检测路况并大大减少你陷入交通拥堵的可能性。

Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business.On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities.However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents.For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine.They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce your chance of getting stuck in traffic jam.Unit4 全球化对中国年轻人具有重大影响。例如，年轻的农民正在大规模流向城市寻找工作。而对那些想出国深造或进外企工作的年轻人说，英语变得越来越重要。另外一方面，许多海外学子近年来回归祖国，因为他们看好中国经济的长期增长前景。因特网加强了中国年轻人与其他地方年轻人的联系。他们跟踪最新潮流，模仿外国时尚。他们中的一些人似乎不在乎中国的传统美德，更不要说发扬光大，这使得有人忧虑中国传统文化会不会有一天终将消失。
Aspire
considerable economy elsewhere growth increasingly let alone On a large scale outlook strengthen vanish
Globalization has great implications for young Chinese.For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs.And for those who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprise, English has become increasingly important.At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long run growth for the Chinese economy.The internet has strengthened the links between the Chinese young people and those elsewhere.They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions.Some of them don’t seem to care traditional Chinese culture, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.Unit5 就我来说，我发现外表往往是靠不住的。譬如，要是你仅凭外表去判断诸如爱德华-海德-伯顿这样的人，你就错了。外表上，伯顿像一个表里一致的人。他个子很小，满头白发，有着一双温和、蔚蓝的眼镜，文雅且坦率。然而，他原来却是十分的残忍。他侮辱和愚弄穷困潦倒的伦尼，让他去做那样的蠢事。更让人吃惊的是，他对伦尼的死全然冷漠无情。毫无疑问，他是一个铁石心肠的家伙。
For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive.For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece.He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid.Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel.He insulted and fooled Lenny 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 Lenny’s death.Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit 6当今我们处于持续的压力之下，要工作更长的时间，要生产更多，拥有更多。许多人有一种错误的认识：幸福就在于拼命地干，使劲地赚。
许多妇女今天感到同样的压力，要工作，要出人头地，而与此同时，又要养育子女，承担起家庭责任的负担。
研究表明，工作狂往往使我们与家人的关系疏远。它迫使我们长时间幸苦劳作，仅留微乎其微的时间与我们的亲人呆在一起、交流感情。家庭成员间的亲密关系在此过程中注定要消亡。
Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more.Lots of people hole the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning good money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead, and at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.Unit 7 今天，在地震袭击我的家乡很久以后，我仍然能历历在目地回想起我与父母亲从家里逃出来时所看到的情景。马路对面的房子就在我们面前倒塌，瓦砾四处乱飞，呛人的尘云遮住了太阳。惊恐的人们哭叫着四处奔跑。
如今那一场悲惨事件已经过去很多年，旧城的废墟上已经耸立起一座新城。人们在小镇的广场上建立了一座纪念碑，以怀念那些灾难中的死者。看来人们心目中的创伤已愈合，但对此事的记忆将不会消失。
Today, long after the earthquake hit my tome-town, I can still recall, in crystal detail, what I saw as I ran out of my home with my parents.The building just across the street toppled right before our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of choking dust blotted out the sun.Horror-stricken people ran in all directions, crying and screaming.Now, many years after that tragic event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the old one.In the town square, a memorial has been build to remember those killed in the disaster.It seems the wounds in people’s hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.

Though how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to many people, linguists believe that English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: the Indo-European parent language.English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century.They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English.In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing.As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English.Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.Unit 8

第五篇：全新版大学英语(第二版)课后翻译答案
1.The offensive had already lasted three days, but we had not gained much ground.The division commander instructed our battalion to get around to the rear of the enemy at night and launch a surprise attack.To do so, however, we had to cross marshland and many of us were afraid we might get bogged down in the mud.Our battalion commander decided to take a gamble.Lucky enough, thanks to the severely cold weather which made the marshland freeze over, 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.2.Automobiles have, since their invention, revolutionized transportation, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business.On the other hand, they have brought hazards, especially highway fatalities.However, today the application of computer technology and electronic sensors in designing and manufacturing cars makes it possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents.For example, electronic sensors mounted in your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and refuse to start up the engine.They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce.4.Globalization has great implications for young Chinese.For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas to look for jobs.And for those young people who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important.At the same time, a considerable number of overseas Chinese students have returned home in recent years, for they hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term growth of the Chinese economy.The internet has strengthened the links between Chinese young people and those elsewhere.They follow the latest trend and copy foreign fashions.Some of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese virtues, let alone carry them forward, which has given rise to worries that the traditional Chinese culture might one day vanish.5.For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive.For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece.He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid.Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel.He insulted and fooled Lenny 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 Lenny’s death.Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.6.Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more.Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning money.Many women today feel the same stress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.It forces us to toil longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction of our time to be physically and emotionally available to our loved ones.Intimacy among family members is doomed to die in the process.
