新编英语教程第四册 期末考试部分答案 ,以及课后练习册Unit3 1 Every night for weeks, the priests gave sermons, and people sang songs in praise of God, worshipped God and shouted for joy. Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly. 2 The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation. His speech was marvellously regular and melodious; it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain, grief and suffering, loud and happy as well as lonely cries, and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die. 3 The whole building shook with all the praying and singing. 4 All the people attending church service prayed only for me; their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering. 5 The whole church became a sea of great joy. 6 When everything became quiet again, during a respectful silence, which was broken only by several people saying “Amen” extremely joyfully and happily, all the children were given blessings by the minister in the name of God. Unit4 1 I argue plainly that making marks in a book is not something done to spoil it but to show its worth and value. 2 Getting the book by payment is merely a preparatory step on the way to ownership. 3 Only when you have fully absorbed it can you say that you own the book completely. 4 The third kind of book owners possess only a few or many books, but every one of them is worn, with the corners of the leaves folded over, and has become less tightly bound because of constant use. There are marks and informally written notes in each book from cover to cover. 5 I would never mark pages of a first edition copy of Paradise Lost, just as I would not give my baby a set of coloured pencils and a painting by Rembrandt in the original. 6 If the elaborate cover, style of printing or layout prevent you from marking up a book, then you'd better buy a cheap edition in which you can show your respect to the writer (i.e., by writing notes in it). 7 If you write notes in the book yourself, the words and sentences will stand out more distinctly in your mind and last longer in your memory. 8 Don't believe that a reader is only expected to take in passively what is in the book (i.e., the reader should also contribute). 9 Comprehension is a process involving both reception and production. If you remain a container ready only to receive, you cannot expect to learn very much. Unit7 1 The ground looked black because it was covered with numerous black ants. These vigorous, strong and powerful ants, without paying any attention to the boy, were moving quickly towards the wounded buck which was struggling helplessly. The ants looked like brightly shining black water running through the grass. 2 Just as he took a breath, feeling pity for the buck and somehow afraid, the buck was no longer on its feet and became silent. 3 He looked closely at the twisting body of the buck covered with black ants; its only movement now was short, quick twitches. 4 The thought well expressed his growing feeling of anger and unhappiness, and objection to what was happening. 5 Near him the ants were gradually going home in small groups with bits of pink meat in their mouths and there was in the air a sharp fresh smell, that of blood and fresh raw flesh. 6 People might think the buck had been lying there for years, if there had not been scraps of pink meat on the white bone. 7 The buck, walking around happily and proudly with its beautiful white tail swishing from side to side, had breathed in and smelt the cold morning air. Unit9 1 The mothers had already learned the news before their sons could stammer it out. 2 The news spread from one brush house to another and continued to travel fast into the town. 3 When the doctor realized that Kino was the man who had asked for his help, he became both serious (about the treatment) and wise clever (about how he could gain). 4 For a moment the doctor's eyes were focussed on nothing as his thoughts turned to Paris. 5 The news caused a profound “negative force” to be at work in the town. This could be compared to a scorpion, which causes pain, or the hunger created by the smell of food, or feeling of loneliness which comes when love is refused. 6 What acted as the “venomproducing bag” of the town, i.e., the increasing selfinterest in the townspeople, began to create poison which afflicted the whole town with a negative force. Unit10 1 He gives us not what is happening outside himself but the deepest, most essential expression of himself as a person and member of the human race. 2 If a composer wants to be in any way a great artist, he must have his own individuality. This may be very important or not important at all but as far as significant music is concerned, it will reflect that individuality. 3 His personality may include many human weaknesses, as did Lully's and Wagner's, but excellence in his music will still stem from those aspects of his personality which are excellent. 4 A composer's style is formed from the interrelationship between his personality and his own period. 5 There is no need to argue about the part that an interpreter plays. 6 Most contemporary firstclass musicians have instruments which are very satisfactory for them to meet any challenge in a composition. 7 The musical notation cannot be the exact transcription of a composer's thought both because it is ambiguous and because it provides freedom for personal taste and choice. 8 The joint efforts of composer and interpreter have significance only when they are appreciated by listeners who understand music.(or, Whether the joint efforts of composer and interpreter have meaning or not depends on whether they are understood by a number of sensible listeners.) 9 That shows that the listener is dutybound to fully appreciate or understand music. 10 By that piece of wit, he undoubtedly wanted to suggest that only when a listener becomes truly concerned about music will he be of interest and value both to music and its composers. Unit8 1 We learn from the astronauts that if we look “down” from space, we will find the most conspicuous outstanding characteristic of Earth to be the thick layer of ice which is Antarctica, which sends light over the southernmost part of the southern hemisphere. 2 One hundred and sixty years ago, however, nobody had ever seen this enormous continent, and had certainly not walked on it. Even today whether we can occupy it or not is still uncertain. Further, we know relatively little about it. 3 The differences between the Arctic and the Antarctic are greater than the similarities. (or, There are more differences than similarities between the Arctic and Antarctic.) The Arctic is tightly surrounded by the continents of Europe, America and Asia where there are permanent populations; whereas the Antarctic is unconnected to anywhere else, separated from the nearest land by vast areas of the world's roughest seas. 4 Under such conditions, a person could only stand for a few seconds, and that was by leaning forward to form an angle of 45° with the ground. 5 It is not surprising that although man did not hesitate to explore and take possession of most of the earth in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the continent in the far south was left untouched. Translation 1 I can't drive a car, let alone fly an airplane. 2 The Arctic is populated with people of different nationalities. (The Antarctic, in contrast,) has no permanent residents because the climate there is unfavourable to human survival. 3 Although she felt like a normal person after the heart surgery, the doctor insisted that she should go to the hospital for examination every other day. 4 Small wonder they lost the games time and again; they had been out of training for quite some time. 5 I am inclined to think that there will be strong opposition to our reform plan among quite many board members. 6 The employees of the company at all levels think of their new manager as farsighted, resourceful and highly competitive. 7 No matter who he is or where he is from, we cannot condone anyone's behaviour that is injurious to social order. 8 Those who claimed to have set eyes on the mysterious savage in the forest all affirmed that the most distinctive feature of the savage was its huge size. 9 As regards the quality of the drinking water on that small island, the explorers who set foot on the island reported that it was sweet, pleasant and refreshing. 10 As far as the business profits are concerned, the main drawback of the publication of academic treatises is that they usually do not sell well, with an average number of only several hundred copies for each printing.
