1.二战时，曼彻斯特饱受空袭之苦。成长在那里，意味着岁月艰难、钱财短缺、心情焦虑，也意味着许多家庭都是当铺的常客，包括我家。

2.不过，我的父母最是乐观向上。他们用勤劳、自尊和满屋子的欢笑撑起了这个家。我父亲身体结实，心灵手巧，他那双手几乎无所不能，从不缺木匠和手工活儿。他甚至偶尔还会参加偏 僻街道的拳击比赛，补贴家用。我母亲勤俭节约，把家收拾得干净利落。尽管条件艰苦，但她总能让自己的五个孩子吃得饱饱、穿得整整齐齐、干干净净地上学去。

3.问题是：虽说我的衣服熨得有棱有角，皮鞋擦得铮亮铮亮的，可总有些地方不符合标准校服的要求。尽管母亲缩衣节食为我筹到了大部分装束，但我仍然没能凑齐学校指定的蓝色运动上衣和帽圈。

4.由于战争影响，开始实施配给制度，大部分学校也放宽了对正规校服的要求，因为学校明白能有衣服穿已属不易。然而，我就读的女子学校却严格规定，每位学生必须穿正规的校服。于是那位负责每天集合的副校长就将训斥我视为她的任务来做。

5.尽管我试图去解释我为何没能按规定着装，尽管我也正逐渐向全套校服靠近，我每天依然会被揪出队列，在台上罚站，作为对违反校服规定者的警戒。

6.我每天站在同学面前，只能强忍泪水，不仅羞愧难耐，而且常常只有我一人挨罚。对我的惩罚还扩大到不能上体操课或者我钟爱的每周一次的交谊舞课。我多么希望在这所可怕的学校里，哪怕只有一位老师能睁开双眼看看我能够做什么，而不是不停地告诉我不能做什么啊！

7.不过，12岁的我在心里也毫无选择，只有眼睁睁地挨受惩罚。我明白不能让仁厚的母亲知道我所遭受的这种习惯性羞辱，这点非常重要。我也不敢冒险让她到学校替我求情，因为我知道那些心胸狭隘、不讲情面的教员们也同样会令她难堪，这意味着到时我们母女俩都要伤心、愤怒。老天！要是母亲再 告诉父亲的话，他立马会大发雷霆，冲到学校来保护我。

8.一天，我们全家在一家报纸举办的不收取费用的肖像模特摄影比赛中获了奖。我为此兴奋不已：那些好莱坞女星魅力四射的照片更令我想入非非。我迫不及待地想把这个激动人心的消息告诉朋友们。

9.在那之前，母亲告诉我必须穿那件绿色蕾丝镶边裙——我最好的服装——去上学，因为摄影比赛正好安排在放学之后。她丝毫没有意识到我所要面临的痛苦。

10.那天，我没有往常穿上这件心爱衣服时的喜悦。我心情郁闷地拖着沉重的步伐来到学校，发现自己成为了蓝色海洋中的一颗绿宝石。集合的时候，我没等人下命令就慢步走上台，去承受其他女生的窃笑和副校长那尖刻的眼神。

11.当我第无数次想到，这位老师怎么会如此麻木不仁，竟然从未透过我的着装，看看这颗顺从听话、渴望参与的女孩的心灵的时候，沮丧的泪水几欲夺眶而出。

12.集合之后的第一节课是我钟爱的英国文学，上课的教师也是我所钟爱的。我安慰自己说，至少我可以在后排座位上暂时沉浸在查尔斯·狄更斯的《双城记》之中，以便能回过神儿镇定下来。可是上课铃一响，麦克维小姐就叫我坐在前排正对她的座位上。可想而知，我当时是多么惊慌失措。我缓慢地站了起来，忍着泪水，走到前排。心想，麦克维小姐不会也加入到敌人的阵营里了吧？

13.我在前排坐下，麦克维小姐将头扭到一边，上下仔细地打量着我。接着，她说出了在那所讨厌的学校里听到的最中听的一句话。

14.“亲爱的，我敢说你是这所死气沉沉的学校里一道最亮丽、最可爱的风景。可惜啊，我只能有幸看你一节课，而不是一整天。”我幼小心灵中的那块坚冰瞬间消融了，我也不禁挺直了肩膀。

15.我相信我当时回敬她的笑容是她所见过的最灿烂的笑容了。她仔细斟酌的话语温暖了我，让我兴高采烈地度过了整整一天。

16.我垂着双眼低着头。在一次又一次地被叫出队列之后，虽然我始终竭力不让自己的痛苦

外露，但泪水还是又差点出卖了我内心的沮丧。

17.虽然麦克维小姐的专长是英语文学，但那天她却给我——给全班——上了一堂持怜悯之心的课，我永志不忘。她让我明白，一句及时的友善之言可以让人受益终生。着实，她贴心的话让我内心变得坚强起来，再也不为什么人、什么事所伤害。

课文

1.It’s surgery of the soul, the loving, healing way to create new beginnings out of past pain.这是心灵的外科手术，充满爱心，疗效显著，可以摆脱过去的伤痛，开创新的起点。2.You are not alone.We all muddle our way through a world where even well-meaning people hurt one another.A friend betrays us;a parent abuses us;a spouse leaves us.然而，有此不幸者，绝非你一人。混沌尘世间，无人可独善其身；好心好意，也会互有伤害。会有朋友的背叛，会有父母的错怪，会有配偶的弃离。

3.Hate is our natural response to deep and unfair hurts.A woman wishes her former husband would be miserable with his new wife.A man whose friend has betrayed him hopes the friend will be fired from his job. 仇恨，是我们对刻骨铭心、天理难容的伤害的自然反应。女人会诅咒她的前夫与新妻子不得安生，男人会因朋友背叛而希望人家丢了饭碗。

4.Hate is a malignancy that festers and grows, stifling joy and threatening our health.It hurts the hater more than the hated.It must be cut out — for our own sake. 仇恨是一种会化脓、膨胀的恶性肿瘤，扼杀我们的快乐，威胁我们的健康；它对恨人者的伤害比对被恨者的伤害更大。为了我们自己，我们必须消除仇恨。

5.Confront your malice.None of us wants to admit that we hate someone, so we hide it from ourselves.But the fury denied rages beneath the surface and infects all our relationships. 直面你的怨意。没有人会承认自己仇恨某人，因此，我们都把仇恨藏在心底。但这种深藏的怒火在我们心底燃烧，感染着我们的人际关系。

6.Admitting our hate compels us to make a decision about the surgery of the soul we call forgiving.We must acknowledge what has happened, face up to the other person and say: “You did me wrong.”

 承认心中所藏的仇恨，可促使我们决定对称之为“宽恕”的心灵做一次外科手术。我们必须承认既成的事实，勇敢地面对对方，说出：“你对不住我了！”

7.Separate the wrongdoer from the wrong.The Bible describes, in the ancient drama of atonement, how God took a bundle of human sins off man’s back, tied it to a goat, and sent the “scapegoat” to a “solitary land”. 区别对待犯错之人与所犯之错。《圣经》中记载了古代的赎罪情节，上帝从人类的脊背上集拢了一大捆罪恶，绑到了羊的身上，然后把这只“替罪羊”遣送到一个“荒无人烟的地方”。

8.Forgiving is finding a new vision of the person who has wronged us, the person stripped of his sins — who really lives beneath the cloak of his wrongdoing. 宽恕，就是找到一个新的视角看待那个曾经错待我们的人，那个与他所犯罪过剥离的人——实际上，他是生活在他以往过失的外衣之下。

 宽恕意味着用一种新的眼光去审视伤害我们的人，排除他的过错，看看那不道德的外衣下究竟是一个什么样的人。

9.Persuasive arguments have been made against forgiving.Some say that forgiveness is unjust because the wrongdoer should not be let off the hook.Others say forgiveness is a sign of weakness.Bernard Shaw called it “a beggar’s refuge”. 有些巧言善辩之人反对宽恕。有人说：宽恕之举缺乏公正，因为不应该让犯错之人逃之夭夭。还有人说：宽恕之举是一种软弱的表现。肖伯纳称之为“乞丐的庇护所”。 10.Vengeance never evens the score.It ties both the injured and the injurer to an endless escalator of retaliation.

复仇永远不能让双方扯平，而只会把受害人和害人者绑在一台永不停息的相互报复的自动扶梯上。

 11.Gandhi was right: If we all live by the “eye for an eye” brand of justice, the whole world will be blind. 甘地说的对：假如我们都生活在“以眼还眼（以其人之道还治其人之身）”的公正法则中，那么，整个世界都将受到蒙蔽/陷入黑暗。

 12.Theologian Reinhold Niebuhr said after World War II: “We must finally be reconciled with our foe, lest we both perish in the vicious circle of hatred.”  神学家莱因霍尔德·尼布尔在第二次世界大战后说：“我们必须最终与我们的敌人和解，不然，我们都将在仇恨的恶毒轮回中毁灭。” 

‘Vicious circle’

13.To understand forgiveness, we should keep in mind that we are seldom merely sinned against. 要理解宽恕之举，我们应该时时牢记，我们很难得是单纯受到冤屈的一群。

14.You may contribute to your spouse’s infidelity by ignoring your partner’s needs and desires, or bring on your children’s rebellion by your cold judgments and hot temper. 你配偶的不忠，很可能是由于你对对方的需求和欲望视而不见；你孩子的反叛，很可能是因为你言辞冷酷、脾气暴躁。

1.I’m certain that nothing I can say will remove that feeling of disappointment, particularly in a climate where grades determine eligibility for graduate school and special program.(Para.1)我肯定无论我说什么都不会消除你的沮丧心情，特别是在我们生活的环境中，考试分数直接决定你是否有资格读研究生和申请一些特别的学习项目。

2.The essence of success is that there’s never enough of it to go round in a zero-sum game where one person’s winning must be offset by another’s losing, one person’s joy offset by another’s disappointment.(Para.2)我们所生活的社会就像一个归零游戏，只要有人赢，就会有人输；只要有人感到幸福，就会有人感到沮丧。从来都不存在大家都成功而没有人失落的情况。这就是成功的核心因素。

3.In a different society, your disappointment might be something you could shrug away.But not in ours.(Para.2)假如你处在另一个社会里，你可以对你的沮丧置之不理，但是在我们这个社会里是无法回避的。

4.… when I got out of the service …(Para.6)……当我退役的时候……

5....men who had but recently put away their uniforms and identities: former platoon sergeants, bomber pilots, corporals, captains, lieutenants, commanders, majors — even a lieutenant colonel …(Para.7)

他们刚脱下军装，不再具有自己军人的身份，他们曾是：陆军副排长、轰炸机飞行员、下士、上尉、中尉、指挥官、陆军少校——甚至还有陆军中校……

6.Nor did they resent him for shifting suddenly from a friendly gear to a coercive one.(Para.8)他们也不因他突然从和蔼可亲的态度转向严厉苛刻的面孔而憎恨他。

7.To recognize them is to recognize that social labels are basically irrelevant and misleading.(Para.9)如果弄清了它们的真实意义我们就会明白社会标签本来就毫无关系，而且会误导人。

1.My heart aches every moment because everywhere I look I see piles of rubble where houses used to stand and lifeless bodies that once moved around with the joy of life inside them.我所到之处满目疮痍，楼房夷为瓦砾，活人成了死尸，生命的欢乐已然封存在这一具具尸体之内。这一切时时刻刻都在刺痛我的心。

2.Of course, I was like them, but I have changed my views since the last D-Day, when our regiment was assigned to protect London.当然，我也曾经和他们一样。但是自从上一个进攻日开始，我的想法改变了。当时我们团的任务是保卫伦敦。

Translate：

3.If I return home I vow to keep these soldier’s memories alive by telling their families they died bravely in an effort to save their country from turmoil.如果我能回国，我发誓一定要让这些战士英名长存。我要告诉他们的家人：他们为了保卫祖国，使之免受劫难，英勇地献出了自己的生命。

4.Humans do err, but that is no excuse for ending innocent lives and destroying whole countries!虽说人非圣贤，孰能无过，但是滥杀无辜，毁人国土，实在是天理难容！

1.Faced with the unconquerable linguistic problems, translators managed to deal with the differences between languages and thought of a vision that was similar to the original in spirit.面对不可逾越的语言障碍，译者们对语言的界限进行揣摩，并最终达成一个折中的解决方案。

2.Those best placed to help that process may not be the ones with the latest technology and state-of-the-art mobile phones, but those with the skills to understand what lies in, under and beyond the words spoken in many different languages.最有助于促进世界和平进程的也许不是那些掌握最新技术或使用最时髦的移动电话的人，而是那些掌握了理解许多不同语言的字面含义、隐含意义与超越词语本身意义的技巧的人。

2)I was grateful that my mother criticised me the other day.I had been asking her for money to buy all kinds of things that my friends have — a new pair of shoes or some new clothes.Every time I was refused, I played the same trick-threatening to pour the dish she cooked for the family into the river.My mother gave in each time I threatened to do that, but one day, she criticised me really hard.She scolded me for being selfish and inconsiderate and asked me to sit in a corner and reflect on my own behaviour.I couldn't believe my mother would be so angry with me and I grew afraid.I learned a good lesson and changed a lot afterwards.I was thankful that my mother made me realize my mistakes.(139 words)2.Describe your attitude towards your father or mother when you were a teenager.When you could not agree with each other, what did you do? Use an incident from daily life to support the description.My father is a well-known carpenter in my village.I still remember that when I was in my mid-teens, I used to adore him so much that I followed him and helped him make furniture for the other villagers.He not only had good skills, but he was also willing to help the villagers with minor repairs such as mending a broken window frame or fixing a door, without charge.All the villagers respected him.They also paid me compliments when they saw me helping him, saying that I would grow up to become honest and industrious just like my father.I was so proud that I had a father who was so well respected.(116 words)

Theme Related Writing Write a passage of about 100-120 words according to one of the instructions given below.a.I have been described by many friends as a warm, sociable, and outgoing extravert.I find it easy to make new friends and I enjoy the company of people who share similar characteristics as I.When I am at a party, many people including those I do not know, will talk to me.I am not a great beauty, neither am I rich and intelligent.In fact, I am just a very simple person who is happy and smiles a lot.Maybe being happy is the attraction.I like bright colours, especially red.It is said that people who like red are passionate and have a lot of energy.I agree that I am enthusiastic about many things and like doing many things at the same time.So it seems there is some truth after all in what colours say about a person’s personality.(141words)

b.The person I admire most is my father’s youngest brother.He is known to us as ba shu because he is the eighth son in a family of eleven.He is a high achiever.Since young, he has done well in his studies and work.For example, he received a prestigious scholarship to study at a well-known medical school in England.Today, at the age of 62, he is still as outstanding.He is a well-respected surgeon and has won many awards.What I like most about ba shu is his sensitive nature, especially toward children who are born unlucky.He has volunteered his time and made sacrifices to help those in poor and developing countries.His strong desire to bring happiness to these people has impressed me a lot.(131 words)c.If I were given a wish to have two personality traits, I would choose to be an optimistic and creative person.I would like to be an optimistic person because those who are optimistic are usually satisfied and contented with what they have.They seldom let sadness be a part of their life.I want to be happy and being optimistic is one way to remain happy.I also would like to be creative.I think that creativity is inherited.Some may disagree and say that we can learn to be creative.However, no matter how hard one learns, it is those born with the talent of creativity who will make a great name for themselves like the famous poet Li Bai and the richest man in the world, Bill Gates.(131 words)

d.Here is no one person I dislike most but there are a couple of personality traits that I cannot tolerate: aggressiveness and selfishness.Aggressive people do not consider others’ feelings and will not think twice about hurting even those closest to them.I once had a neighbour who would beat his wife one day and appear loving the next.His wife lived in fear constantly but could do nothing because he was in control of her.Another personality trait I dislike is selfishness.Like aggressive people, selfish people only think of themselves.There are many everyday examples of selfishness such as those not willing to lend things to others and those not wanting to share exam tips even with their best friends.If you know someone with a combination of aggressiveness and selfishness, you should consider whether to call him or her a friend.(143 words)Unit 4 Enhance Your Language Awareness Working With Words and Expressions 1）1.They were smashing windows when the police arrived.2.70,000 tons of oil spilled from the tanker(油轮)and the sea was polluted.3.She volunteered to write an explanation of how the new computer system works.4.The book was inspired by the good deeds(事迹)of a real person.5.It was blowing hard and very soon the tree in front of my house fell with a great crash.6.The police report stated that he was once arrested for theft.7.The Dean(系主任)is not available at the moment, but you may call back in an hour.8.Up to two million people there are dependent on food aid.9.It was most unfortunate that I missed the chance to be interviewed by the company director.10.Can we find a mutually convenient time for us to meet? 2）1.exclaimed 2.arrange 3.aroused 4.resembles 5.volunteered 6.appreciate 7.requires 8.cracked 9.miracle 10.victims11.precious12.delicate 13.expected 14.interviewed 3）1.take over2.get through 3.no way 4.Leave off 5.put it … together 6.in touch with7.No sooner … than 8.in advance 9.looking forward to 10.arrange for11.in contrast 12.took on 13.made sure 14.move in15.in the hands of 16.go with 17.in poverty Increasing your word power.1）1.commission 2.smashed3.smash 4.volunteered 5.spill6.crash 7.contrast 8.commission 9.spilt 10.volunteer 11.contrasts 12.crashed 2）1.e 2.e 3.a 4.a 5.c 6.d 3）1.happy 2.impulsive 3.carelessness4.calmness5.firm 6.illness7.awareness 8.weakness 9.submissive Grammar Review.Task One Task Two 1.No mistake 2.has been living 3.enjoys 4.No mistake 5.tried 6.No mistake 7.No mistake 8.No mistake 9.have been visiting 10.likes 11.had I got 12.had broken 13.No mistake 14.No mistake 15.was suffering 16.No mistake 17.have been receiving 18.No mistake 19.insisted 20.No mistake 21.No mistake Cloze(1)chilly(2)sooner(3)than(4)exclaimed(5)fabric(6)delicate(7)joints(8)that(9)miracle(10)sacrificed(11)precious(12)loving Translation 1）1.Let’s get in touch as soon as we know the results of the test/exam.2.The music aroused an intense feeling of homesickness in him.3.You’ve been working all morning — you deserve a rest now.4.I had no sooner lain down than the telephone rang.Or: No sooner had I lain down than the telephone rang.5.My doctor says I’m too tired and has advised me not to take on any more work.6.Jenny volunteered to clear up after the gathering.7.The subject of the talk is announced a week in advance, but the name of the speaker is not.8.Your performance in the exam did not reach the required standard — in other words, you failed.9.She was so ill that she had to leave off work..10.There is no way to tell what is going to happen.The case is in the hands of the judge, and all we could do is(to)wait.2)当人们变得很老时，像祖父母或曾祖父母那样，他们有时不再能够照顾自己。他们会生病，或者摔倒而折断股骨，或者他们根本都不记得该如何穿睡衣。有时候虽然有些老人看起来还健康，但是因为他们自己独居，所以觉得很孤单。这时候全家人要碰个头，商讨一下让他们日渐衰老的家人去养老院去居住是否是一个较好的办法，因为在那里他们可以得到更好的照顾。Theme-related Writing 1.Imagine you were Meagan.Write a story about GG and her lost doll.Start the story with: “My GG — that's my great-grandma — lived in Maine many years ago.” My GG — that's my great-grandma — lived in Maine many years ago with her Mom, Dad and four sisters.Life was difficult then, but GG's parents tried their best to make their children happy.One Christmas they gave GG a beautiful doll with an exquisite porcelain face and long brown hair.The eyes of the doll opened and closed vividly.GG loved her doll so much that she played with her for a long time and didn't want to separate with her until it was time for Christmas dinner.GG laid the doll down gently on the hall table.But before long she heard a loud crash — GG's baby sister had pulled her doll off the table and it was smashed into pieces.Though GG's mother tried to put the doll together again, it couldn't be done.The doll was gone for ever.And so was GG's baby sister when she died of pneumonia a few years later.It was a deeply unhappy experience in GG's life.2.Write a short passage of about 100-120 words on the topic: “Living in a Nursing Home: A Plan for the Future?” Living in a Nursing Home: A Plan for the Future? Thanks to medical advances and better living conditions, most of us can live longer.The issue of where we will stay when we get old has become a concern for everyone.I did a survey last week on “Are you willing to go and live in a nursing home when you grow old?” Of the ten people surveyed, seven said “yes.” According to them, living in a nursing home would enable them to meet people of similar ages, get instant medical care, and have their meals and laundry taken care of.The three who don't want to stay in a nursing home think living in a nursing home would make them feel lonely and abandoned on the one hand and would have their privacy intruded upon on the other.Nonetheless, the survey does suggest that more people would be willing to live in a nursing home in the future.(147 words.)Unit 5 Enhance your language awareness Working With Words and Expressions 1)1.When we finally completed our courses, all my classmates gathered together to celebrate.2.I have always wanted to be a psychologist, but a recent incident changed my mind.3.It is not difficult at all.You can get it done with ease.4.To be a good research student, you must have a mind for inquiry.5.I could see her genuine concern for my health and I was deeply touched.6.The boss’s fear of change becomes an obstacle to the progress of the organization.7.Please keep stirring the oil to stop it from getting frozen.8.I am most grateful to you for all the help you have offered us.2)1.senior
