總體分析
本文介紹了蘇美爾人對(duì)神的崇拜及由此引起的社會(huì)階層的劃分。第一句至第四句為一個(gè)意群,主要介紹了蘇美爾人對(duì)神的崇拜,以及神凌駕于人之上。第五句至倒數(shù)第二句為一個(gè)意群,介紹了由于對(duì)神的崇拜而出現(xiàn)的社會(huì)上層階層及其職能。末句附帶說(shuō)明了在宗教體系之外的社會(huì)階層。
全文翻譯
所有的蘇美爾城邦都認(rèn)可很多共同的神,包括天空之神、風(fēng)暴之王、晨星和昏星。雖然蘇美爾人崇拜代表繁衍、愛(ài)和戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的女神,但她在地位上卻明顯低于男性神。這表明在一個(gè)更趨都市化的社會(huì)中,過(guò)去時(shí)代的民族曾經(jīng)致以大地母親神的敬意已經(jīng)減少。神似乎都極其暴力且捉摸不定,人的一生成為任他們擺布和奴役的一生。史詩(shī)《創(chuàng)世記》中強(qiáng)調(diào)人類(lèi)被創(chuàng)造出來(lái)是為了使神放棄勞動(dòng)。而且每一座城邦都有它自己的神,該神被認(rèn)為確實(shí)居住在廟宇里,理論上則是城邦里所有財(cái)產(chǎn)的擁有者。因此詮釋神的意志并且控制城市經(jīng)濟(jì)產(chǎn)品的分配的僧侶以他們超自然的以及在物質(zhì)方面享有的功能而受到青睞。公元前3000年以后,當(dāng)城市不斷增多的戰(zhàn)事使軍事領(lǐng)導(dǎo)才能變得非常重要時(shí),成為國(guó)王的軍隊(duì)首領(lǐng)占據(jù)了在神與僧侶階層之間的位置,他是神的代言人,對(duì)僧侶階層既利用又安撫。因此在一個(gè)等級(jí)社會(huì)中國(guó)王和僧侶代表了上層階級(jí)。居于他們之下的是書(shū)吏,即,廟宇世俗的侍臣,他監(jiān)督城市經(jīng)濟(jì)生活的方方面面,并制定粗略的司法體系。在廟宇官員之外,社會(huì)被劃分為四類(lèi)人:大地主和軍事領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人這樣一群精英和貴族人群;商人、工匠和技工的混合群體;占人口大部分的自由農(nóng)民;奴隸。

Straight ahead you continue,__17__ to cut over sharply would send you into a slip,__18__in front of the vehicle. At last,there is__19__enough,and you creep back over,in front of the truck now,but__20__the sound of its engine still thundering in your ears.

總體分析
本文描述了在冰雪覆蓋的路面上開(kāi)車(chē)的經(jīng)歷。文章首句為主題句,概括了這種經(jīng)歷的特點(diǎn)是“令人非常緊張”。第二至四句分別介紹了下雪帶來(lái)的隱患和機(jī)器變得沒(méi)有多大用處。從第五句到文章最后則描述了在這種不利條件下和大卡車(chē)一同行駛的緊張經(jīng)歷。
全文翻譯
在暴風(fēng)雪中驅(qū)車(chē)長(zhǎng)距離地行駛于冰雪覆蓋的路面上是一種令人非常緊張的經(jīng)歷。矛盾的是雪一面輕輕地飄落,在強(qiáng)風(fēng)中愉快地吹著,一面又不斷地吹落可能帶來(lái)危險(xiǎn)的毯子,封凍窗戶(hù),擋住視線(xiàn)。機(jī)器的力量被減弱了。馬、強(qiáng)有力的電子系統(tǒng)、深胎面的輪胎都毫無(wú)用處。一分鐘前路面還很結(jié)實(shí),下一分鐘司機(jī)就在上面打滑,輕飄飄地,處于恐慌之中,想著從后面突然出現(xiàn)的笨重的掛了拖車(chē)的卡車(chē)會(huì)干出什么事情來(lái)。當(dāng)你不得不開(kāi)車(chē)經(jīng)過(guò)這些卡車(chē)時(shí),它們就像巨人一般。這時(shí)你行駛的速度不是當(dāng)路面干燥時(shí)的60或70,而是25和30.并且它們的引擎聽(tīng)起來(lái)極其刺耳。雪、泥和冰渣滓從輪子下噴灑出來(lái),使擋風(fēng)玻璃變得模糊不清,然后格格作響地從車(chē)上掉下?ㄜ(chē)輪子下的空間很大,足以讓你滑進(jìn)去并被碾成肉醬。你一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)的往前挪動(dòng),經(jīng)過(guò)卡車(chē)的后輪,中間的輪子,駕駛室,前輪,所有這一切都是極其緩慢地滑過(guò)去的。你繼續(xù)筆直地往前開(kāi),因?yàn)橥蝗怀?chē)搶道到卡車(chē)前面會(huì)使你的車(chē)滑倒,正好倒在大卡車(chē)的前面。最后終于和卡車(chē)有了一段距離了,你才慢慢地往后挪,挪到另外一車(chē)道上,現(xiàn)在你行使在卡車(chē)的前面了,但是引擎的聲音仍然震耳欲聾。
試題三:

Valentine‘s Day has become a major __16__ of love and romance in the modern world.

But we also use cards and gifts,such as flowers or jewelry,to do this. __19__ to give flower to a wife or sweetheart on Valentine‘s Day can sometimes be as __20__ as forgetting a birthday or a wedding anniversary.

總體分析
本文介紹了情人節(jié)的由來(lái)。第一段介紹情人節(jié)的前身牧神節(jié)以及該節(jié)日里抽簽選戀人的慶祝活動(dòng)。第二段介紹情人節(jié)是為了紀(jì)念一位羅馬牧師。第三段指出情人節(jié)已經(jīng)成為愛(ài)的主要象征。
全文翻譯
圣瓦倫丁節(jié)(即,情人節(jié))可能源自古羅馬的牧神節(jié)。當(dāng)兇猛的狼群在四周游蕩時(shí),古老的羅馬人請(qǐng)求牧神盧帕克斯來(lái)幫助他們。一個(gè)向該神表達(dá)敬意的節(jié)日于2月15日舉行。在這個(gè)節(jié)日的前夕女孩們的名字被寫(xiě)在紙條上并放入罐中。每位年輕的男子都抽一張紙條,被抽中名字的女孩在未來(lái)一年中將成為他的戀人。
傳說(shuō)這個(gè)節(jié)日之所以成為圣瓦倫丁節(jié)是為了紀(jì)念一位名叫瓦倫丁的羅馬牧師。國(guó)王克勞底斯二世命令羅馬士兵不得結(jié)婚或訂婚?藙诘姿拐J(rèn)為結(jié)了婚的士兵更愿意留守家中而不是上戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)。當(dāng)瓦倫丁違抗了國(guó)王的意愿,秘密讓年輕人成了婚之后,他于2月14日即牧神節(jié)的前夕被處決。瓦倫丁死后,成了圣徒;浇虝(huì)牧師們將這個(gè)節(jié)日從15日改為14日,即,圣瓦倫丁節(jié),F(xiàn)在這個(gè)節(jié)日紀(jì)念的是瓦倫丁而再不是牧神盧帕克斯。
圣瓦倫丁節(jié)在現(xiàn)代世界里已經(jīng)成為愛(ài)和浪漫的一個(gè)主要象征。古代的愛(ài)神丘比特和他射入愛(ài)人心中的箭也許仍然被用來(lái)表現(xiàn)愛(ài)上某人或談戀愛(ài)。但是我們也使用卡片和禮物,比如鮮花或珠寶來(lái)做同樣的事情。在圣瓦倫丁節(jié)忘記給妻子或戀人送花有時(shí)能像忘記生日或結(jié)婚紀(jì)念日一樣糟糕。

本文主要介紹了英國(guó)飲食存在的問(wèn)題。第一至二段指出,英國(guó)政府和食品工業(yè)被指責(zé)導(dǎo)致肥胖患者的增多。第三段指出,一方面日本飲食因日益西化,肥胖問(wèn)題變得嚴(yán)重;另一方面,日本飲食在英國(guó)很流行,被視為健康飲食。第四段指出適度飲酒對(duì)身體有益,但英國(guó)要應(yīng)付的是與過(guò)度引酒相關(guān)的問(wèn)題。
全文翻譯
一份最近的.議會(huì)報(bào)告指責(zé)政府和食品工業(yè)導(dǎo)致肥胖患者增多。交通部門(mén)被指責(zé)在促進(jìn)步行和騎車(chē)設(shè)施的發(fā)展方面做得不夠,而且屈從于代表汽車(chē)使用者的機(jī)動(dòng)車(chē)組織的壓力。教育部被指責(zé)出賣(mài)學(xué)校的操場(chǎng),在保證提供用于體育教學(xué)和游戲的充足設(shè)施方面做得不夠。英國(guó)的年輕人為足球和橄欖球而瘋狂,但更多的只是坐在家里看電視的“沙發(fā)土豆”。
食品工業(yè)被指控向?qū)W生兜售垃圾食品,在減少熟食中糖、脂肪和鹽含量方面做得不夠。受到目前艾特金斯低碳水化合物飲食潮流的刺激,食品工業(yè)已經(jīng)有所反應(yīng),但是它要努力保護(hù)一個(gè)龐大的市場(chǎng),而且如果要避開(kāi)日益增多的規(guī)定,它需要做的事情還很多。
迄今為止,日本看上去受肥胖問(wèn)題的影響較小,但是隨著日本人食譜的日益西化(夾餅和油炸圈餅),問(wèn)題會(huì)變得嚴(yán)重。有趣的是,日式烹飪?cè)谟?guó)很流行。它被看作是有別于地中海飲食的另一種健康飲食,后者著重于西紅柿和橄欖油以及與之相結(jié)合的紅酒。

本文介紹了東日本鐵路公司引人關(guān)注的新計(jì)劃。文章第一段介紹說(shuō)東日本鐵路公司創(chuàng)造性地利用車(chē)站內(nèi)部及周?chē)康禺a(chǎn)的計(jì)劃正引起越來(lái)越多人的關(guān)注。第二段具體介紹了這一計(jì)劃的內(nèi)容及好處,即適應(yīng)信息時(shí)代的要求,把車(chē)站作為網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物的物品收取地,這樣既為消費(fèi)者提供了方便,又提高了遞送物品的安全性。第三段介紹了該公司引入智能卡代替目前使用的各種磁卡作車(chē)票的計(jì)劃及其優(yōu)點(diǎn)。
全文翻譯
通過(guò)國(guó)家鐵路系統(tǒng)的私有化創(chuàng)建起來(lái)的六大公司之一的東日本鐵路有限公司,正吸引著越來(lái)越多人的目光。在一個(gè)發(fā)展前景不振的行業(yè),它創(chuàng)造性地利用車(chē)站內(nèi)部及周?chē)姆康禺a(chǎn)的計(jì)劃正引起人們的關(guān)注。
東日本鐵路在11月份公布的“車(chē)站復(fù)興”計(jì)劃中說(shuō):它將不僅把它的商業(yè)空地用于開(kāi)商店和餐館,而且還要把這些商業(yè)空地用于更加適應(yīng)信息時(shí)代的功能上去。它打算把車(chē)站作為網(wǎng)上所購(gòu)物品如書(shū)籍、花卉和日用百貨等的收取地。該公司估算,在一個(gè)都市人嚴(yán)重依賴(lài)列車(chē)作為上下班交通工具的國(guó)度里,每天大約有1600萬(wàn)人因各種原因來(lái)到它的車(chē)站。因此,在車(chē)站收取物品使消費(fèi)者節(jié)省了路途而且也不像往家里遞送那樣容易丟失。東日本鐵路已經(jīng)開(kāi)始把車(chē)站的便利店用于這一目的,但它打算為網(wǎng)上貨物的遞送創(chuàng)立專(zhuān)門(mén)的空間。
該公司還打算引入智能卡(在日本稱(chēng)為IC卡,因?yàn)樗鼈兝眉呻娐穬?chǔ)存信息)取代目前使用的磁卡作為車(chē)票和定期券,把各種不同的票券合為一體。這將為公司節(jié)省資金,因?yàn)镮C卡的讀卡機(jī)比磁系統(tǒng)要便宜的多。IC卡使用的增加還將會(huì)減少售票所占用的空間。

全文翻譯
大眾媒體是我們文化的重要組成部分,但是它也可以成為年輕一代的助手、建議者和教師。大眾媒介作為許多機(jī)構(gòu)和社會(huì)交往的替代品影響著年輕人的生活。通過(guò)這種方式,它在人們生活中起到了各種各樣的作用。
在電視屏幕前耗費(fèi)的時(shí)間常常是以休閑為代價(jià)的,即有更少的時(shí)間用于游戲、娛樂(lè)和休息。由于被電視屏幕上的東西吸引,孩子們不僅模仿他們看到的,而且還直接將自己視為電視中的各種不同的人物。美國(guó)人對(duì)媒體中暴力的普及及其對(duì)孩子和青少年的潛在危害的擔(dān)憂(yōu)至少已經(jīng)有四十年了。在這段時(shí)期里,新的媒體,如:電視游戲、有線(xiàn)電視、音樂(lè)錄像帶以及網(wǎng)絡(luò)出現(xiàn)了。由于這些媒體繼續(xù)受到歡迎,它們連同電視一起引起了公眾的擔(dān)憂(yōu)和研究的注意。
媒體使年輕一代受到社會(huì)另一大關(guān)注的方面是身體形象問(wèn)題。外部力量能對(duì)身體形象產(chǎn)生正面和負(fù)面的影響。舉例來(lái)說(shuō),社會(huì)文化標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和大眾媒介的營(yíng)銷(xiāo)沖擊著我們關(guān)于美的觀念。在大眾媒介中,標(biāo)準(zhǔn)美女的形象充斥著報(bào)刊雜志,從電視中播放出來(lái),在電影中娛樂(lè)著我們。甚至大眾媒介還在廣告中利用公認(rèn)的瘦和健康的文化價(jià)值來(lái)贏得商業(yè)利潤(rùn)。青少年被給予的是狹隘界定的吸引力的標(biāo)準(zhǔn),它是一種包含著對(duì)外形的不切實(shí)際的期望的完美標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
