Cyber love

①Thanks to the late 20th century technology, Maria of Denmark and Martijin of Holland met on a chatline. For months they've talked and sent letters to each other?with the help of their computers as they?found themselves falling head over heels in love. It was then that?they decided to meet in the real, not only the virtual, world. It was not easy to arrange as the young man and his lady were separated by 700 very real kilometers, but the date was a success and Maria and Martijn have been living together happily?ever since. They've created a home page to let the world know how they've found?happiness?via?the Internet and introduce couples who've met?under similar circumstances.

②Throughout history men and women had used?a variety of means?to find each other. Internet romance, according to some, is a bizarre method, and to others it is a natural way for?the 90's?to meet?potential mates.

③Romances formed on the internet?follow a characteristic script.?The development of emotional intimacy is a long process, sometimes taking several months. "Love at?first byte" is rare although there are examples. (1)The initial light exchanges, whether by e-mail or in chat rooms, are generally followed by increasingly self-revealing topics, and then after a while, the two strangers perceive each other as a true friend.?Hearts open and an avalanche of e-mail

verses and virtual gifts (flowers, kisses, animated pictures). Could any heart with romantic inclinations resist? (2)When you reach for the mouse with sweaty palms and butterflies in the stomach to look in the in-box for new mail - there's just no way to escape the fact - love has arrived.

④How does a cyber romance vary from a real life romance? Perhaps one significant difference is that communication plays such a large part. Words that convey feelings have enormous effect. (3)While before a real date we fix our hair and our clothes, on the internet we polish our intellect, imagination and personality.?(4)In essence, the sequence is reversed - first we show our inner beauty and only after it had won victory does the veil fall off the physical vehicle of that personality at the time of that first meeting in person.

⑤It is a popular topic in cyberspace to debate whether or not true love can develop merely on an?intellectual level（智力方面，精神方面，即"精神恋爱"）, without physical attraction or the?familiarity?of the other's appearance? (5)To put it another way: is the physical appearance of the man or woman play a part in the relationship if, through the exchange of thoughts and feelings, they already fell in love?

本部分重点及难点：

1. The initial light exchanges, whether by e-mail or in chat rooms, are generally followed by increasingly?self-revealing topics, and then after a while, the two strangers perceive each other as a true friend.

不管是通过电子邮件还是聊天室，最初是简单的交流，然后是越来越多自我表露的话题，过了一段时间之后，两个陌生人把彼此当成了真正的朋友。

perceive…as…把……看成2. When you reach for the mouse with sweaty palms and butterflies in the stomach to look in the in-box for new mail - there's just no way to escape the fact - love has arrived.

(1) reach for the mouse 伸手够鼠标，reach for 用手去拿，用手去抓

(2) in-box 收件箱

out-box 发件箱

(3) there's no way to do sth. 没办法去做某事

there's just no way to escape the fact。没办法去逃避这个事实。

3. While before a real date we fix our hair and our clothes, on the internet we polish our intellect, imagination and personality.

(1) while表示前后对比，再如：

He is hot-tempered, while his twin sister is very gentle.

(2) polish 润色

(3) 句子的译文：现实中约会前我们打理自己的头发和服饰，而在互联网上，我们依靠智慧，想象力和个人品格。

4. In essence, the sequence is reversed - first we show our inner beauty and only after it had won victory does the veil fall off the physical vehicle of that personality at the time of that first meeting in person.

(1) only after…放在and后面分句的句首，故第二分句倒装。？？？

"only+介词短语或状语从句"句子倒装，例如：

Only in this way can you succeed.

Only when you have tried hard can you taste the flavor of success.

(2) 句子的译文：其实顺序是相反的：我们先展示了内在美，只有在内在美赢得胜利之后，第一次见面，外在的东西才展露出来。

5. To put it another way: Does the physical appearance of the man or woman play a part in the relationship if, through the exchange of thoughts and feelings, they already fell in love?

(1) put: state, express 表达，表述

a well-put sentence 措辞严谨的句子

(2) play a part / role in sth. 在对某事起作用

(3) through the exchange of thoughts and feelings 通过思想感情的交流

⑥(6)Many say it is against the nature of love to be?deprived of?the sense of sight, the look, the movement, and the body language being present.?(7)There are those, of course, who favor Internet relationships claiming that the?intensity?of the emotional relationship that develops in such a way is superior to the mere stirring of the flesh.?

本部分重点及难点

6. Many say it is against the nature of love to be deprived of the sense of sight, the look, the movement, and the body language being present.

(1) It is against the nature of love…是违背爱的本性的

(2) deprive …of…剥夺，使丧失

Poverty has deprived many poor children of the right to (receive) education.

区分：derive…from…

He derives great pleasure from helping others.

A lot of English words are derived from Latin and French.

7. There are those, of course, who favor Internet relationships claiming that the?intensity of

the emotional relationship that develops in such a way is superior to the mere stirring of the flesh.

be superior to 优于……

类似用法的词：inferior, superior, junior, senior, anterior, posterior, prior，这些词表示比较，但之后都用to，不用than。例如：

The cloth is inferior to that one in quality.

Her husband is two years senior to her.

请认真答题，答题结果将记入知识点测评的成绩！

【单选题】22. We can't ______ him ______ the right to defend himself even though he is a

suspected criminal.

?A．derive, of

?B．deprive, of

?C．derive, from

?D．deprive, from

【答案】B

【解析】本题考查deprive…of / derive…from。deprive…of…意为"剥夺，使丧失"，derive…from意为"得到，派生"，故选B。本句的意思是"虽然他是个嫌疑犯我们也不能剥夺他为自己辩护的权利。"

【知识点】deprive…of / derive…from

⑦Whatever the opinion may be on cyber love - it must be said?in favor of?the internet that it

puts people?in touch with?those who they?otherwise?would never have met. I would never

with whom, after a year of correspondence,?albeit?not romantic, a common interest still exists.

⑧It is silly to perceive the Net as a demon, when we determine how we meet its challenges. While there are those who can use the Net?to their advantage?extracting useful information, there are those who become addicts?losing common sense, hopping from chat room?to chat room, writing piles of e-mails full of lies to chosen victims, and whose virtual reality, the flirtations, become part of their everyday lives, as if a disease. One thing is true - the Net is very?addictive. According to the confession of a multiple substance addict, it was easier to give up cocaine than the?IRC（short for Internet Relay Chat网上实时聊天）.

⑨In any case, keep your eyes open off-line as well. Turn off the machine and go to a dance or a club, because most women still expect to be courted in a real, old-fashioned, and romantic way.

The Impact of the Internet on Society

1 The Internet has?had a profound effect on?society?over the last two decades. Although it began as a?government operation,?over time?this innovative technology eventually evolved into a public novelty. Looking at society today, one may find that the situation has certainly

novelty?it was 10 years ago. Even a decade ago if you were to think about whether or not the Internet had significant impact on society, the answer would likely have been probably not. While the Net may have been considered?a neat innovation（绝妙的革新，neat意为很棒的，绝妙的）, it was not like anyone "needed" it.

2 However, over time this?perception?has changed for many individuals in society. The Internet has become, for the most part,?an absolute necessity, either by requirement or by desire.?Going online has become as natural as doing other daily tasks people have traditionally done.（承上启下句）(1)People?take it for granted?that the Internet will be available, and dependency on being connected has become the norm.?Both businesses and individuals?alike?depend upon the routine availability of the Internet. Due to the fact that many businesses, government agencies and other organizations have navigated to the online environment, generally people require consistent access, or 24/7 (24hours a day, 7 days a week) access, if you will.

本部分重点及难点：

1. People?take it for granted?that the Internet will be available, and dependency on being connected has become the norm.

take sth. for granted 认为某事理所当然，想当然

take it for granted that…当宾语是从句时，要用形式宾语代替，也可以把宾补for granted前移，宾语从句后置，即take for granted that…。

Children take (it) for granted that their parents should give them money whenever they need it.

3?In many ways the Internet has had a very positive effect on society.（主题句）It has

enabled?faster processing, and provided more options, all of which have?freed more time to do other things.

4?Yet, interestingly enough the Internet has, in some ways, had negative effects.（主题句）The quality of communication has declined; people are?impatient?because they have become accustomed to?instant gratification（立即得到满足）, and using the Internet also takes up a lot of time. (2)As websites such as Facebook and other socially based interactions increase in usage, many hours a day are consumed as people keep up with their various networks, taking away from other activities.?

本部分重点及难点：

2. As websites such as Facebook and other socially based interactions（交流，互动）increase in usage, many hours a day are consumed as people keep up with their various networks, taking away from other activities.

一些网站使用量大增，比如脸谱和其他社交网站。人们每天花费很多时间忙于各种网络联系，占用了其他活动的时间。

5 (3)When looking at it from?the latter perspective, one may wonder whether or not the Internet has truly benefited society.?(4)Realistically, as with anything else, the Internet has its pros and cons.?Tools such as e-mail and instant messaging have become the standard; social networks are quickly evolving into the next level of communication, and people enjoy their constant access.?In this respect the benefits of the Internet are tremendous.（承上启下句）(5)This is not only evidenced by the many activities people engage in when they connect to the Internet, but also by the continuous progression and development of mobile devices such as smartphones.?

3. When looking at it from?the latter perspective, one may wonder whether or not the

Internet has truly benefited society.

the former…the latter…前者…，后者…

benefit sth. 对……有益

benefit by / from sth. 从……中受益

benefit - beneficial

联想：influence - influential

4. Realistically, as with anything else, the Internet has its pros and cons.

realistically: in reality

as with: 正如，与……一样

pros and cons正反两方面，有利有弊

5. This is not only evidenced by the many activities people engage in when they connect to the

Internet, but also by the continuous progression and development of mobile devices such as smartphones.

(1) not only…but also…

(2) evidence证明

(3) 译文：人们利用互联网所从事的种种活动，以及移动设备如智能手机的持续进步和发展都能证明这

一点。

【单选题】23. Is he Japanese or Korean? I think he is ______ instead of _______.

?A．the later, the former

?C．latter, former

?D．the latter, the former

【答案】D

【解析】本题考查the former / the latter。the former, the latter意为"前者，后者"，定冠词不能省略。注意：latter不要和形近词later"更迟的；后来"混淆，former不要和音近词formal"正式的，正规的"混淆。

【知识点】the former / the latter

6 Society has evolved to the point where people expect and rely on readily available

information. People also expect to receive rapid responses when doing business and personal tasks.?The Internet makes this possible.（承上启下句）Many of the things that society takes for granted nowadays are all made possible by the development of the Internet

7 What kind of an impact has the Internet had on society? (6)Wrapped up in the advantages

and disadvantages one thing is for certain: the Internet has had a significant effect on

society.?To imagine the impact all one has to do is try to envision the consequences if the Internet was suddenly removed from society.?Imagine a world where the Internet was

unavailable.?（承上启下句）How would it affect you? Looking at it from this respect, for many it likely brings to light just how?reliant?and?dependent?society has become on the Internet and it would be?extremely?hard to?turn back the clock（时光逆转）.

本部分重点及难点：

6. Wrapped up in the advantages and disadvantages one thing is for certain: the Internet has

had a significant effect on society.

(1) wrapped up 包裹着

(2) for certain / sure 肯定地

(3) have a significant effect on sth.

山东自考英语二课文翻译

Unit 1 Text A How Difficult Is English? 英语有多难 Like the national push for Asian literacy （n.有文化，有教养，有读写能力）in Australia，就如澳大利亚在全国推行学亚洲语言一样，there has been foreign languages fervor[f??v?] in China，中国也掀起一股外语热，with English on top of the list. 在这股热潮中，英语高居榜首。English is not only taught at schools，colleges and universities，but also at evening classes，on radio and TV．不仅各级学校教英语，夜校、电台、电视台也都设有英语课程。Parents hire private tutors for their school children；父母为学龄的孩子聘请英语家教，adult English learners would sacrifice the weekend at an English corner in a public park practicing their spoken English with peop1e of the same interest and determination. 成年英语学习者会牺牲周末休息日，到公园参加英语角，与志趣相投的英语学习者练习口语。Is English such a difficult language that it really demands people to invest a large amount of time and energy before it is mastered ? 英语真的有这么难，需要人们投入大量的时间和精力才能掌握吗? The answer，if I am asked to offer，is undoubtedly，yes．如果我被问及这个问题，那么毫无疑问，我的答案是：是的。From my personal experience, 从我个人的经验来看，I think learning English means far more than learning its pronunciation，its grammatical rules，its words，etc．英语学习不仅仅是学习英语发音、语法规则、词汇等，It involves learning everything about the countries where it is used and the people who use it．它包括学习与使用该语言的国家和民族有关的所有内容。Without such a complete understanding of the language, 对英语没有这样全面的理解，the English a foreigner speaks will inevitably sound strange or even unintelligible though there is not anything wrong with his pronunciation，sentence structure and the words he uses．即使发音、句子结构、措辞毫无错误，一个外国人所讲的英语也难免听起来稀奇古怪甚至难以理解。The social customs and habits of the English-speaking people contribute a lot to the difficulty a foreigner has in learning it．讲英语民族者的社会风俗习惯增加了外国人学习英语的难度。Take the Chinese English learners for example．以学英语的中国人为例，" Hello "and "Good morning" may sound a little bit simple to Chinese people．"你好"和"早上好"是非常简单的。It is totally beyond the understanding of a Chinese English learner that native English speakers would be annoyed when they're addressed "Where are you going?"，which is a commonly used addressing among the Chinese．"你去哪儿?"是中国人常用的问候语，若英语母语者被问及"你去哪儿?"，他们会因此感到不悦，这一点让中国的英语学习者大为不解。Is there anything wrong with the English sentence structure ? 这个英语句子结构不对吗? Of course not．当然不是。It takes quite some time for a Chinese English learner to understand the western concept of privacy being violated in this address. 学英语的中国人得费点儿时间才能理解这一问候语侵犯了西方人的隐私。By the same token，同样，"Have you eaten?"(which is another addressing term the Chinese people usually use)will sound to native English speakers that the Chinese are so hospitable that they invite people to meals off-handedly. 英语母语者听到"你吃了吗?"(中国人常用的另外一个问候语)，会觉得中国人非常好客，会在事先毫无准备的情况下请人吃饭。Meanwhile，the Chinese would be shocked to hear，"Oh，it's very nice of you．When?"，if the addressee happens to have a craving for Chinese cooking and has not had his dinner yet.如果听话者此刻正希望品尝一下中国美食，又碰巧没有吃饭，他会回答"太好了，什么时候?"，中国人为此也会大吃一惊。 "We can say we are going to have chicken for dinner．Why can't we say pig，bull or sheep for dinner instead of pork，beef or mutton?" Chinese English learners may raise such questions．中国的英语学习者可能会这样问："我们可以说吃鸡，为什么不能说吃猪、吃牛、吃羊，而要说吃猪肉、牛肉、羊肉呢?"Figuring out the reasons for the peculiar English vocabulary is no easy task for Chinese English learners．对学习英语的中国人来说，为这些特殊的英语词汇找出理由并非易事。But the problem is that memorizing English words mechanically would be devastating and inefficient if they did not know what had happened in British history．问题在于如果不懂英国历史，死记硬背英语单词毫无效率。Thus learning English(and other languages as well)involves learning the history of the countries where it is spoken．所以说，学英语(其他语言亦如此)还包括学习使用该语言国家的历史知识。A task of this kind is more difficult for Chinese English learners than for people who speak

Unit,,,,,1,,,,,,,,,,Text,,,,,A,,,,,,,,,,怎样成为一名成功的语言学习者 “学习一门语言很容易，即使小孩也能做得到。” 大多数正在学习第二语言的成年人会不同意这种说法。对他们来说，学习一门语言是非常困难的事情。他们需要数百小时的学习与练习，即使这样也不能保证每个成年语言学习者都能学好。 语言学习不同于其他学习。许多人很聪明，在自己的领域很成功，但他们发现很难学好一门语言。相反，一些人学习语言很成功，但却发现很难在其他领域有所成就。 语言教师常常向语言学习者提出建议：“要用新的语言尽量多阅读”，“每天练习说这种语言”，“与说这种语言的人住在一起”，“不要翻译——尽量用这种新的语言去思考”，“要像孩子学语言一样去学习新语言”，“放松地去学习语言。” 然而，成功的语言学习者是怎样做的呢,,,,,语言学习研究表明，成功的语言学习者在许多方面都有相似之处。 首先，成功的语言学习者独立学习。他们不依赖书本和老师，而且能找到自己学习语言的方法。他们不是等待老师来解释，而是自己尽力去找到语言的句式和规则。他们寻找线索并由自己得出结论，从而做出正确的猜测。如果猜错，他们就再猜一遍。他们都努力从错误中学习。 成功的语言学习是一种主动的学习。因此，成功的语言学习者不是坐等时机而是主动寻找机会来使用语言。他们找到（说）这种语言的人进行练习，出错时请这些人纠正。他们不失时机地进行交流，不怕重复所听到的话，也不怕说出离奇的话，他们不在乎出错，并乐于反复尝试。当交流困难时，他们可以接受不确切或不完整的。对他们来说，更重要的是学习用这种语言思考，而不是知道每个词的意思。 最后，成功的语言学习者学习目的明确。他们想学习一门语言是因为他们对这门语言以及说这种语言的人感兴趣。他们有必要学习这门语言去和那些人交流并向他们学习。他们发现经常练习使用这种语言很容易，因为他们想利用这种语言来学习。 你是什么样的语言学习者,,,,,如果你是一位成功的语言学习者，那么你大概一直在独立地，主动地，目的明确地学习。另一方面，如果你的语言学习一直不太成功，你不妨试试上面提到的一些技巧。 Unit,,,,,1,,,,,,,,,,Text,,,,,B,,,,,,,,,,语,,,,,言 当我们想告诉别人我们想什么时，我们不但可以借助于词语，还可以用其他表达方法。比如，当我们想说“是”时，我们有时会上下点头，而当我们想说“不”,,,,,时，我们会左右摇头。那些既听不见也不会说话的人（也就是聋哑人）借助于手势相互交谈。那些彼些不懂对方语言的人也用这种方式交谈。下面这个故事就说明了人们有时是怎样借助于手势进行交谈的。

第1课Text A 批判性地阅读 批判性阅读适合于那种作者提出一个观点或试图陈述一个说法的纪实类写作。批判性阅读是积极阅读。它不仅仅包括理解作者说了些什么，还包括质疑和评价作者的话，并对此形成自己的观点。成为一名批判性阅读者需要做到以下几点。 考虑写作背景。你所读的可能是与你有不同文化背景的人所写的，或者是与你有不同时代背景的人多年以前所写的。无论哪种情况，你都必须注意并考虑你的价值观和态度与作者所代表的价值观和态度有何不同。 质疑作者的论点。不要轻信作品的表面意思。在接受作者观点前，首先要确定作者作出的每一个论点都有足够的论据支持。找出能支持该论点的事实、实例、和数据。另外，注意作者是否参考了权威著作。 与同主题文章进行比较。查看该作者的文章与其他作者关于同一主题的文章是否有一致性。如果存在不一致性，对不一致的地方背后的论据支持要进行仔细甄别。 分析作者提出的假设。假设是作者认为具有正确性的前提，基于这些前提作者才能提出论点。很多时候作者的假设并没有直接说明，这就意味着你必须通过仔细阅读来发现这些假设。一旦发现某一假设，你必须判断这一假设是否合理。 鉴别文章出处。鉴别时要确保文章出处真实可信。例如，如果文章是关于物理学里程碑式的成就，那么爱因斯坦的论述就是可靠的出处。此外还要确保出处具有相关性。如果文章主题是诗歌，那么爱因斯坦的论述就不是相关出处。最后，如果作者写的是某个主题当前的情形，那就要确保出处来源也是当前最新的。例如，如果作者讨论的是物理学知识的现状，那么爱因斯坦在二十世纪早期进行的研究可能就不适合作出处了。 甄别作者可能带有的偏见。有关美国政治的书面论述可能因作者是共和党人或民主党人迥然而异。作者所写的内容很可能反映其带有偏见的立场。阅读时要考虑到这种偏见存在的可能性。也就是说，要对文章内容“半信半疑”。 成为一名批判性阅读者，你的思路会不断拓宽，观点会更加合理。 第1课Text B 自信的语言 语言能影响我们的大脑。掌握语言就能在很大程度上掌握我们的生活和命运。将语言发挥到极致可以极大地改善我们的生活质量，这一点至关重要。 再短的单词也能对我们的潜意识产生深远的影响。我们的潜意识就像一个孩子，分不清真实发生的事和自己想象的事。它渴望取悦，乐意听从你给它的任何命令，而你是有意还是无意地做这些完全取决于你。’ “尽力” 这是一个简单的词，却能对我们产生不简单的影响。如果有人说“我会尽力做这件事的”，你

Text A Leisure and Leadership 休闲与引导 Observations and research findings indicate that people in advanced industrial societies are inc reasingly concerned with opportunities for leisure and what they can do in their leisure time. The i mportance people attach to paid holidays and the rapid development of services for mass entertai nment and recreation are signs of this increasing concern. 观察和研究结果显示发达工业社会的人越来越关注的机会以及空闲时能做些什么。对带薪休假的重视和大众娱乐服务的快速进步是这种关注的标志。 The term "quality of life" is difficult to define. It covers a very wide scope such as living env ironment, health, employment, food, family life, friends, education, material possessions, leisure a nd recreation, and so on. Generally speaking, the quality of life, especially as seen by the individua l, is meaningful in terms of the degree to which these various areas of life are available or provid e satisfaction to the individual. "生活质量"这个词不好下定义。它包含很广的范围，例如生活环境、健康、就业、食品、家庭生活、教育、物质财富、休闲和娱乐，等等。一般地说，尤其在个人来看，生活质量由个人在多大程度上能够得到生活的这些方面并感到满意来衡量。 As activity carried out as one thinks fit during one's spare time, leisure has the following fu nctions: relaxation, recreation and entertainment, and personal development. The importance of t hese varies according to the nature of one's job and one's life-style. Thus, people who need to exe rt much energy in their work will find relaxation most desirable in leisure. Those with a better educ ation and in professional occupations may tend more to seek recreation and personal developmen t (e.g., cultivation of skills and hobbies) in leisure. 作为个人认为适合在业余时间进行的活动，休闲具有以下功能：放松、消遣和娱乐，以及个人发展。这些功能的重要性因各人的工作性质和生活方式而不同。因此，需要在工作中消耗大量精力的人会发现最想要在休闲中放松。受过较好教育的人和职业较为专业的人可能倾向于在休闲中寻找消遣和个人发展。 The specific use of leisure varies from individual to individual. Even the same leisure activit y may be used differently be different individuals. Thus, the following are possible uses of televisio n watching, a popular leisure activity: a change of experience to provide "escape" from the stres s and strain of work; to learn more about what is happening in one's environment; to provide an o
