John should have given up smoking a long time ago.After all, health is of the utmost importance to everybody.Unit 4
1.学校应避免仅按学生考试成绩来判别孰优孰劣并以此对待他们。相反,好的教育体制应使每一位学生都能达到良好的水准,成为全面发展的人。
Schools should avoid deciding who are superior only in terms of the students’ exam results and treating them accordingly.Instead, a good educational system should enable every student to measure up to good standards as well-rounded people.2.大学生课后有问题时,往往在办公时间之外不容易找到老师。这是由于教师繁忙的学术研究,而不是他们对学生漠不关心。
As often as not, when college students have questions after class, their teachers are not readily available except during office hours.This is due to teachers’ busy academic research, rather than their indifference to the students.3.这个班级由40名学生组成,他们中大部分按英语水平过去常被归在中等之列。但由于这位老师从
不在言辞中表露出不耐烦,学生们对他的教学方法产生了积极的反应,从而没有辜负他的期望。This class consists of forty students, most of whom used to be labeled average in terms of English level.But as this teacher has never shown any verbal impatience, the students have reacted positively to his teaching methods and lived up to his expectations.4.在美国,教书变得越来越难了,部分原因是学生越来越多样的种族背景以及需要另外培训才能掌握的更为复杂的教学技术。
Teaching is becoming increasingly demanding in the the United States, due in part to the diversity of students racial background and the complexity of educational technologies that require additional training.5.英国人经常被归类为保守型,显然这一归类带有成见。实际上,英国在民族特性方面与其他欧洲国家相比并没有太大的差异。他们有礼貌,爱整洁,讲秩序,充满自信
The English are, as often as not, labeled conservative.Obviously this label is prejudiced.In reality, Britain is not very different from other European countries in terms of national characteristics.They are polite, neat, orderly and confident.6.有些年轻人在成长过程中有着要求独立的强烈愿望。他们宁可通过自己的努力来渡过生活中的困难,也不愿意带着负罪感求助于他们的父母。
Some young people grow up with a strong desire for independence.They would rather try hard to go through life on their own than turn to their parents for help with a sense of guilt.7.你的朋友对你非常真诚,你也应该同样以诚相待,决不应该欺骗他,或者带着讽刺的口吻谈论他的挫折。
Your friend treats you sincerely, so you should respond accordingly and mustn’t deceive him or talk about his setbacks with irony.8.邻居们恼火的原因是他们发出的噪音,但是由于他们一再保证夜间停工,从而得以完成这套公寓的装潢。
The neighbor’s irritation/annoyance was due to the noise they made.However, because of reassurances that they would stop working at night, they went through with the decoration of this apartment.
