39、、不完整的语句之中!我的学生以“哇!”来表示她的惊叹,我只能以摇头表达比之更强烈的忧虑。5 关于正确使用英语能力下降的问题,有许多不同的故事。学生的确本应该能够区分诸如their/there/theyre之间的不同,或区别 complimentary 跟 complementary 之间显而易见的差异。由于这些知识缺陷,他们承受着大部分不该承受的批评和指责,因为舆论认为他们应该学得更好。6 学生并不笨,他们只是被周围所看到和听到的语言误导了。举例来说,杂货店的指示牌会把他们引向stationary(静止处),虽然便笺本、相册和笔记本等真正的 stationery(文具用品)并没有被钉在那儿。朋
40、友和亲人常宣称 Theyve just ate。实际上,他们应该说 Theyve just eaten。因此,批评学生不合乎情理。大学英语二期末复习资料(1)(2)99 7 对这种缺乏语言功底而引起的负面指责应归咎于我们的学校。学校应对英语熟练程度制定出更高的标准。可相反,学校只教零星的语法,高级词汇更是少之又少。还有就是,学校的年轻教师显然缺乏这些重要的语言结构方面的知识,因为他们过去也没接触过。学校有责任教会年轻人进行有效的语言沟通,可他们并没把语言的基本框架准确的语法和恰当的词汇充分地传授给学生。8 因为语法对大多数年轻学生而言枯燥且乏味,所以我觉得讲授语法得一步一步、注重技巧地进行。有
41、一天机会来了。我跟儿子开车外出。我们出发时,他看到一只小鸟飞得很不稳,就说:“它飞的不稳。”(Its flying so unsteady.)我小心翼翼地问:“儿子,鸟怎么飞”“有问题吗我说得不对吗(Did I say anything incorrectly)”他一头雾水。“太好了,你说的是 incorrectly 而不是 incorrect。我们用副词来描述动词。所以,要用 unsteadily 来描述鸟飞,而不是 unsteady。”9 他对我的纠正很好奇,就问我什么是副词。我慢慢解释道:“副词是用来修饰动词的词。”这又导致了他询问我什么是动词。我解释说:“动词是表示行为的词,例如:爸爸
42、开卡车。开是动词,因为它是爸爸在做的事。”10 他开始对表示行为的词产生兴趣,所以我们又罗列了几个动词:“飞行”、“游泳”、“跳水”、“跑步”。然后,他又好奇地问我,其他的词有没有说明它们的用法和功能的名称。这就引发了我们对名词、形容词和冠词的讨论。在短短十分钟的驾驶时间内,他从对语法一无所知到学会了句子中主要词语的词性。这是一次毫无痛苦而又非常有趣的学习经历。11 也许,语言应该被看成是一张路线图和一件珍品:我们要常常查看路线图(核对语法)和调整汽车的引擎(调节词汇)。学好语法和掌握大量的词汇就好比拿着路线图在车况良好的车里驾驶。12 路线图为你的旅行提供所需的基本路线和路途指南,可是它不会
43、告诉你一路上你究竟会看见什么树或什么花,你会遇见什么样的人,或会有什么样的感受。这里,词汇会使你的旅途变得五彩缤纷、栩栩如生。大量的词汇让你享受到开车途中所见的点点滴滴。借助语法和丰富的词汇,你就有了灵活性,掌控自如。路线图会把你带到目的地,而一台好车却能让你完全陶醉于旅途的所有景色、声音及经历之中。13 对学生来说,有效、准确且富有成效的沟通技能取决于语法和词汇这两大有利条件,可是学校并没有教他们这些。14 就在今天早上,我跟儿子吃早饭时,我想把牛奶加入我的茶里。“爸爸,”他说,“如果我是你的话,我不会这样做。牛奶会变酸。(If I were you,I wouldnt do that.It
44、s sour.)”15“哦,上帝!”我满怀着无比的骄傲说道,“这是一句语法完全正确的句子。你用了 were 而不是 was。”16“我知道,我知道,”他愉悦地舒了口气,“这是虚拟语气!”17 这下轮到我“哇!”了。第二单元 人文学科:过时了吗?1 当形势变得困难时,强者会去选学会计。当就业市场恶化时,许多学生估算着他们不能再主修英语或历史。他们得学一些能改善他们就业前景的东西。大学英语二期末复习资料(1)(2)1010 2 数据显示,随着学生肩负的学费不断增加,他们已从学习人文学科转向他们相信有益于将来就业的应用科学和“硬”技能。换言之,大学教育越来越被看成是改善经济而不是提升人类自身的手段。
45、这种趋势可能会持续,甚至有加快之势。3 在未来几年内,由于劳动力市场的不景气,人文学科可能会继续其长期低迷的态势。在上一代大学生中,主修文科的学生数跌幅已近50%。这种趋势会持续、甚至加速的想法是合情合理的。人文学科曾是大学生活的重要支柱,而今在学生们的大学游中却只是一个小点缀。现在,实验室要比图书馆更栩栩如生、受人青睐。4 在这儿,请允许我为人文学科给人们的生活所增添的真实价值进行支持和宣传。自古以来,人们一直在思索人类自身具有什么神奇的内力使一些人变得崇高伟大,而使另一些人走向自我毁灭。几个世纪以来,这股内力被称作很多东西。著名的心理学家西格蒙德弗洛伊德称之为“潜意识”,或更为人熟知的“本
46、能”。5 从一开始,人类这股可以是建设性也可以是毁灭性的内在驱动力,就令我们心驰神往。这些惊人的、充满内心挣扎的故事形成了世界文化的基础。历史学家、建筑师、作家、哲学家和艺术家们以故事、音乐、神话、绘画、建筑、雕刻、风景画和传统的形式,捕捉到了这些撞击心灵的文字、形象及内涵。这些男男女女创造出了具有艺术性的“语言”,帮助我们了解人类的这些强烈愿望,并用以教育一代又一代人。从古时起开始的这些充满想象的大量作品,正是文明的底蕴,它奠定了人文研究的基础。6 学习人文学科会提高我们的阅读和写作能力。无论我们这一生中从事什么职业,如果我们能读懂复杂的思想并理解它们的内涵,我们都会受益匪浅。如果我们是在办
47、公室里能对这些思想写出既明确又简洁的分析的人,我们会有光明的职业前景。7 学习人文学科会让我们熟悉表达情感的语言及进行创造的过程。在信息经济中,很多人都有能力创造出一个如新的 MP3 播放器那样的有用产品。然而,仅有很少的人具有能力创造出一个如iPod 那样的精彩品牌。最重要的是,学习人文学科使我们具有伟大的洞察力和自我意识,从而以积极和建设性的方式来发挥我们的创造力和才艺。8 也许,支持人文学科的最好论点是,人文学科为我们提供了广阔的机会。你知道世界闻名的电影泰坦尼克号 的导演詹姆斯卡梅隆拿的是人文学科的学位吗 第一个登上太空的女宇航员萨利赖德拿的也是人文学科的学位。还有电影演员李小龙、格温
48、妮丝帕特洛、蕾妮齐薇格及马特达蒙,也都如此。获诺贝尔医学奖的哈罗德瓦慕斯博士也学过人文学科。甚至迪士尼公司的总裁迈克尔艾斯纳也主修人文学科。学习人文学科的有名人士确实可以列出一长串。显而易见,人文学能为我们从事许多不同的职业做准备,不管是医学、商务、科学或娱乐。如果我们仅学习数学,我们很可能只能申请数学家之类的工作。如果我们还学了人文学科,那我们就能突破许多障碍,只要我们愿意付出努力,敢于想象。9 当然,在当下,如果我们单学人文学科,可能会失去很多机会。我们每个人都需要尽可能变得技能化、职业化,以满足现代生活的需要。事实上,技术知识和内在洞察力的结合越来越被看成是建立职业生涯的理想搭配。如果我
49、是某个医学院的招生部主任,有两个人同时申请我们学校,这两个人都学过基础的科学课程,一个主修哲学,另一个仅是医学院的预科生,我会选择那位哲学专业的申请者。10 总之,人文学科帮助造就全面发展的人,这些人具有洞察力,并理解全人类共有的激情、希望和理想。人文学科,这个古老、永恒的知识储蓄库,教我们如何以不同的方式看待事物,同时也拓宽我们的视野。在大学英语二期末复习资料(1)(2)1111 现代社会中,人文学科一如既往地同生活息息相关,也发挥着重要作用。我们在学习中花一些时间与人文学科我们杰出、非凡的知识宝藏相伴,这难道不是明智的吗 谁知道你将来会变得多有名气呢!第三单元 奥德赛岁月之旅 1 我们大多
50、数人都知道,根据不同的年龄和生活阶段,人生可与此平行划分为童年、青春期、成年和老年这四个阶段。我们把这些阶段想象为婴儿在童年之前,中年在老年之前,每个阶段都会面临一系列特有的挑战,如孩子对学习的需要,成人对找到合适的职业生涯和建立一个家庭的需要,以及年长者对得到帮助和良好医疗保健的需要。通过对它们的充分了解,我们就可以战胜这些挑战。2 有趣的是,关于人生阶段的观念正在发生变化。3 在先前的年代,人们并没有一种固有的把童年和成年分开的想法。一百年前,谁也没有想到过青春期。直到最近,人们还很自然地认为:只要他们一从大学毕业,他们的成人入门阶段就结束了。他们就会找到一份把他们引入职业生涯的合适的工作
