Unit 1, R10: Relationships, two female students chatting in a cafe
Part 1
A: Mary B: Cindy
A: What are your plans for the weekend?
B: I am off to my maternal grandparents. They are holding a family reunion.
A: Sounds fun! Do you have a big family?
B: I sure do.
A: Tell me about your relatives.
B: Well, my immediate family is made up of my parents, my big sister and me.
A: Your sister has two children, doesn’t she?
B: Yes, my niece Jessica–she is a beautiful little toddler–and my nephew Kevin.
A: How about your extended family?
B: Well, on my mother’s side, I have twenty family members.
A: Twenty?
B: Yes: my grandparents, four uncles, three aunts, and eleven cousins.
A: Wow, that’s impressive. Is your father’s family that big too?
B: No, he was an o nly child. So it’s just him, my grandparents and, very happily, his paternal grandfather –my great-grandpa, who will turn 100 next June!
A: 100! That’s amazing!
Unit 1, R10: Relationships, two female students chatting in the classroom
Part 2
A: Cindy B: Rachel
A: How are you enjoying your American Culture and Society course?
B: I like it. The United States is certainly an intriguing country. At the moment, we are looking at the American family.
A: What can you tell me about it? I’d be interested in hearing about what you’re learning. B: Well, many American families are known as two-career families. That’s a family where both the husband and wife work outside of the home.
A: With both parents working, family income must increase considerably.
B: It certainly does. And it also means more husbands do their share of household chores and childcare... Hmm, another type of family is the stepfamily.
A: What’s that?
B: This type of family is a result of the higher divorce and remarriage rates in America. It can in fact be quite large because of stepchildren and stepparents.
A: I am not really sure what you mean.
B: Well, for instance, if a child’s mother remarries, then her second husband becomes her child’s stepfather. If the stepfather has, say, a daughter, then she becomes the child’s stepsister.
A: Got it. So that’s why they are called stepfamilies.
B: Exactly.
Unit 2: Two friends who haven’t seen each other in a long time
Part 1
A: Dan B: Cindy
A: Dan, it’s been ages. It’s absolutely wonder ful to see you.
(Cindy and Dan hug)
B: Cindy, so nice to see you too. You look great! How have you been?
A: I’ve been very well, thank you. I’ve just returned from a year of work and travel.
B: Really, where did you go?
A: I took a year off from my studies: I spent 9 months doing some volunteer work with an NGO in Zambia, and then I traveled around Europe for 3 months.
B: That sounds so exciting!
A: It was. How about you? What have you been up to for the last few years?
B: I also went abroad. I completed my final two years of high school in Canada and traveled through America and Mexico during the summer holidays. Now I am preparing for my studies in the UK.
A: Cool! What will you study?
B: Hotel & Tourism Management.
A: Sounds like the ideal choice for someone who enjoys travel!
Unit 2: Two friends talking about their life dreams
Part 2
A: Dan B: Jane
A: Jane, do you get nervous thinking about the future?
B: Yes, I do.
A: Me too.
B: What worries you the most?
A: Family stuff. I’m worried that I might not find a good job and, because of this, struggle to support my loved ones. If I get married and have a child, I want to be able to provide my family with the best life possible.
B: Dan, don’t forget that your future wife will have a job too! S he will also provide for your family. It’s silly to put all the pressure on yourself: a married couple should work as a team. A: Yeah, maybe you’re right ... What do you worry about?
B: Having a sense of purpose in life. We spend so much of our adult lives working that I want my job to be meaningful. I want to live to work, not work to live! I dream of being able to have a positive impact on the world around us.
A: Well, you have a positive impact on me, so you’re off to a good start!
Unit 3: Giving advice
Part 1
A: Cindy B: Mark
A: Mark, are you ok? You look terrible.
B: That’s because I feel terrible. I just had a huge fight with my parents.
A: I am so sorry to hear that. What was the argument about?
B: My future. My parents want me to go on an exchange program to America, but I want to study in London.
A: Why did they want you to study in America?
B: Because I have an uncle there who can keep an eye on me.
A: You’ve got to somehow make your parents understand that choosing the right exchange program is more important than studying close to extended family.
B: I try, but they don’t listen.
A: Then perhaps what you need to do is write them a letter.
B: A letter?
A: Yes, I would advise you to list the pros and cons of studying in London. Ask them to make an effort to do the same about studying in America. Then you can all think calmly about your options, without shouting at each other.
B: Ok, I’ll give it a go.
Unit 3: Asking for advice about dieting, two females
Part 2
A: Jane B: Cindy
A: Cindy, can I ask you for some advice?
B: Sure, about what?
A: About dieting. You’re so healthy and you have such a great figure – I want to know your secret.
B: I’d be more than happy to share my secret with you – instead of eating three big meals a day with snacks in between, I have six small meals that are very nutritious, spaced 2 or 3 hours apart.
A: Six small meals… Hmm … I could do that.
B: Sure you can! The key is to make sure each meal contains fruit or vegetables, lean protein, healthy fats –like fish or tofu – and good carbohydrates.
A: That doesn’t sound too hard. But what are good carbohydrates?
B: Things like nuts, seeds and beans.
A: How long will it take before I start to feel and look better?
B: After a week, your energy level will be mu ch higher. After a month or two, you’ll feel and look fantastic!
Unit 4, R22: A couple talking about their wedding lists
Part 1
A: Dr. Zhang B: Lisa
A: Lisa, I’ve twenty people on my list. What about you?
B: Um, let’s see. I’ve got my broth er and his wife.
A: Right.
B: And her parents and relatives.
A: You’re inviting your sister-in-law’s relatives too?
B: This is a family event. We can’t leave anyone out… And then there’s my mother’s two brothers and their families. And my aunt, who lives in Brazil.
A: She’ll come all the way here for the wedding?
B: She wouldn’t miss it for the world. And then my father will want to invite all of his close friends from work.
A: Wait a second. Your father’s friends from work are coming? How many is that?
B: Eighty people.
A: Eighty people! But I thought we were just inviting family and close friends.
B: Believe me, my father’s business associates are like family. I’ve just never met most of them!
Unit 4, R22: Meeting a cousin for the first time
Part 2
A: Tina B: Dan
A: Cousin Dan, thank goodness for family weddings: I can’t tell you how special it is to finally get to meet you!
B: I’m thrilled too, Tina.
A: You look just like Uncle David
B: Really? He is bald!
A: Ha ha -that’s not what I mean: you have a great head of hair! It’s that your facial features are almost identical. And you have matching smiles.
B: Wow, thanks, that’s a really nice compliment: Uncle David has such an engaging smile –it lights up the room!
A: How about me? Do I remind you of anyone in the family?
B: Well, hmm, you have a very unique look, but your eyes are just like Auntie Christina’s: radiant and full of warmth!
A: Well thank you. Oh look … there she is, chatting with Grandma and Grandpa. Let’s go over and say Hi!
B: Good idea. They will be so delighted to see that we have finally met!
Unit 5: Decisions, R26
Part 1
A: Jack B: Eric
A: Has Martin decided what degree he would like to study?
B: Not yet. At the moment he has many options, but I’m not sure which one he will go for. A: He needs to think about what he’s good at and what he’s interested in.
B: Well, I know he’s good with numbers but he’d like to take up Spanish as well.
A: I suppose he could do his major in one field and his minor in Spanish.
B: Yeah, something like that.
A: Why doesn’t he do a degree in Business Studies?
B: I don’t know. His whole family does business, but for some reason he’s not really into business.
A: Has he thought about a degree in Finance or Economics?
B: Yes, he seems interested in both.
A: What he needs to do is compare the course modules.
B: Yeah, I suppose if he compares them, he’ll find out which one suits him best.
Unit 5
Part 2
A: Jack B: Mary
A: Congratulations! I heard that you are about to graduate from university.
B: Yes, it’s almost over! I’m so relieved!
A: So what are you doing now?
B: I’ve been looking for jobs.
A: Have you found any yet?
B: There are lots of jobs out there, but the problem is choosing a suitable one.
A: What are you interested in doing?
B: I’m not sure, but I would like to use my language skills and travel experience.
A: Perhaps you could apply for a job as an editor or writer for a travel magazine?
B: Don’t you need a lot of experience?
A: Not necessarily. As long as you have the right skills and you show that you are passionate about the job, anybody might employ you.
B: Are you sure?
A: Yeah, just apply, and see what results you get.
B: Okay, I’ll give it a try!
Unit 6: job interview, talking about past work experience
Part 1
A: Bob B: Tim
A: Have you worked as a salesperson before?
B: Certainly, as my resume shows, I was a salesperson for a local pharmaceutical company for two years.
A: Were you successful in your position?
B: Very much so! I was the company’s top salesperson both years.
A: Impressive! What would you say made you so successful?
B: Customers trust me. That’s important because if customers don’t believe in you, they won’t believe in your product.
A: I agree. Can you give me two other qualities that made you the top salesperson in your company?
B: I can indeed. On the one hand, I am outgoing and make a great first impression. This is key to hooking the buyer. On the other hand, I am determined and never get sidetracked: I’m always focused on accomplishing the task at hand. Without determination, I would say that it’s next to impossible to seal a deal.
A: You’ve hit the nail on the head! You’re hired!
unit 6: husband talking with his with his wife about her job interview
Part 2
A: Dr. Zhang B: Lisa
(Wife arrives home)
A: Honey, I’m so glad you’re home. I’ve been dying to hear about your interview. How did it go? Did you ace it?
B: I am not sure that I aced it, but it went pretty well, I think.
A: Please tell me about it.
B: Well, I felt very relaxed throughout the process and believe that I answered all of the questions appropriately… Darling, I am so happy that we’d looked at sample questions together because some of them came up: it gave me added confidence to know that I had prepared well for them.
A: And how about the interviewer – did she give any indication of how the interview went? B: She was very professional from start to finish so it was hard to read her thoughts, but judging from her body language, I think she was pleased with what I said.
A: What do you mean?
B: She smiled a lot and maintained good eye contact with me. Plus, at the end of the interview, she gave me a very warm handshake. Warmer than when we greeted.
A: That’s a good sign! When will you get an answer?
B: Tomorrow morning. I don’t think I’ll get much sleep tonight!
Unit 7: two guys talking about their girlfriends
Part 1
A: Dan B: Mark
A: Mark, we should organize a double date sometime. I’d really like to meet your new girlfriend.
B: That would be cool! It would also give me the chance to meet Janet. How are things going with her anyway?
A: Really well. She is so much fun to be around: she has a dry sense of humor that’s absolutely hilarious.
B: Annie is witty and makes me laugh a lot too! But the thing I like best is that she is such a good conversationalist. We can talk for hours about the most fascinating topics!
A: Wow, she sounds perfect! Does she have any faults?
B: None come to mind. You know, Dan, I think I’m in love! Do you have that feeling with Janet?
A: It’s too early to tell: we’ve only been seeing each other for about a month. I thought you and Annie only started dating about a month ago also?
B: Yeah, we did. I guess you could say it was love at first sight!
Unit 7: two girls talking about their boyfriends
Part 2
A: Jane B: Cindy
A: Hi, Cindy, how’s it going with Ken?
B: I don’t know… one moment he’s really friendly and everything is wonderful, and the next moment he’s really cold and distant with me.
A: Oh no, that sounds really confusing.
B: It is. I never know where I stand with him. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it. Anyway, how are you and Mike doing?
A: Really well! He was so kind to me last week when I was not feeling well. He brought me flowers and made me supper three nights in a row! But… I feel really bad that things aren’t going so well for you.
B: Don’t worry about me. I think that perhaps Ken and I aren’t suited for each other. Hearing about how nice things can be, for example between you and Mike, makes me think that maybe I should end things with Ken.
A: Really?
B: Yeah.
A: Well, don’t rush into anything. Although… if you do end things with Ken, Mike has this really nice friend called Clyde, whom I think you’d get along with!
Unit 8: Technology, R42
Part 1
A: Eric B: Jack
A: So how are you, Jack? You look really tired.
B: Well, I’ve been staying up really late these past few days.
A: Why stay up? What are you busy doing?
B: Oh, just playing computer games.
A: Computer games can be really addicitve, you know.
B: Yeah, tell me about it. I’m really hooked.
A: I used to play computer games, but then I got so obsessed that I couldn’t concentrate on my studies.
B: Well, I just play for the fun of it. It gets my mind off things.
A: Computer games might be good for letting out stress, but they are harmful.
B: Harmful? How so?
A: They distract you from studies, make you stay up late, make you forget to eat, and are bad for your eyes.
B: That sounds exaggerated.
A: I’m not exaggerating. That’s why I gave them up years ago.
B: So what do you do instead?
A: Now, I just read a book, watch some films, or listen to some music as a way of relaxing. B: Hmm. I suppose those might be better leisure activities.
Unit 8
Part 2
A: Dr. Wang B: Cindy
A: Have you checked your email, Cindy?
B: I am afraid I haven’t, Dr. Wang. Did you send me an email?
A: Yes, two days ago.
B: I’m so sorry, but I’ve been having a lot of problems with my computer lately.
A: What kind of problems?
B: I keep on getting junk mail.
A: Then why don’t you just delete them?
B: It’s not that simple. They seem to be clogging up my mail box, so now I can’t tell the difference between spam mail and ordinary mail.
A: Then I suggest opening a new email account.
B: That’s a good idea. I will do so after I have reinstalled my computer.
A: What’s wron g with your computer?
B: I think there’s a virus on it. Ever since I downloaded an application, it’s stopped me from updating other programs.
A: Have you tried a virus scanner?
B: Yes, I have. But because it can’t update properly, it doesn’t seem to detect the virus.
A: Oh, well. It’s indeed best that you reinstall your computer.
Unit 9, R46: The teacher
Part 1
A: Jane B: Cindy
A: What do you think of the philosophy teacher, Dr. Wang?
B: It’s still early days in the course, but I think she is out standing. Her undergraduate degree is from Peking University. She did her postgraduate research at Princeton.
A: I am also impressed with her. What strikes me is how well-read she is. Just as importantly, she is a good communicator.
B: I agree. I find sh e genuinely knows how to engage the students. That’s perhaps her greatest strength.
A: Hmm, I would actually say her greatest strength is getting students to think critically. B: Really?
A: Yes, I mean, it is very important for philosophy students to be objective, speak and write logically, and draw logical conclusions. She seems very skilled at getting students to do this. B: Yeah, you are right.
A: I also like the way she encourages group discussion through debate. It’s an ideal way to tackle issues from different angles.
B: You said it! I guess we’re very fortunate to be her students!
unit 9, R46: The odd landlord
Part 2
A: Jack B: Eric
A: Is it just me, Eric, or does the landlord seem a bit weird?
B: Funny you should ask that: because of his long, orange hair and all of his tattoos, he used to give me the creeps.
A: Used to?
B: Yes, now that I have spoken to him a number of times, I realize that he is a very nice guy. He is simply a bit eccentric.
A: Eccentric?
B: Yeah, his style is not exactly conventional, and his daily routine is not what I would call typical.
A: I know! He seems to sleep all day and stay awake all night! His light is always on no matter what time I come home. I wonder what he does for a living?
A: I know what he does –we’ve had good discussions about it.
B: Wait, let me guess: is he a musician?
A: Nope, he is an author and free-lance journalist. He told me he gets his best writing done at night, when no one can disturb him. I’ve read some of his work in the Weekend Gazette–it’s extremely witty! You can talk to him about it yourself: I’ve invited him for supper tomorrow!
Unit 10: Survival, R50
Part 1
A: Eric B: Jack
A: Have you ever suffered from a natural disaster?
B: Yes, I once experienced an earthquake.
A: When did it happen?
B: It happened two years ago when I was visiting Sichuan.
A: That must have been terrible.
B: It was. At the time I was sleeping, until I got woken up by screams.
A: What did you see?
B: As soon as I heard the screams, I saw the furniture trembling and things falling down around me.
A: What did you do?
B: I hid under my bed, hoping that it would all be over soon, but it just got worse.
A: What happened?
B: The whole building collapsed within seconds.
A: How did you escape?
B: I couldn’t escape. I was trapped in the rubble, unable to move my arms or legs.
A: What happened then?
B: I was in complete darkness for hours and hours, until a rescue team came and saved me.
I’m lucky to be alive.
Unit 10
Part 2
A: Cindy B: Jane
A: Have you ever experienced a natural disaster?
B: I once experienced a tsunami when I was in Thailand.
A: How did it happen?
B: I was sunbathing on the beach, when suddenly I felt the ground moving underneath me. A: What did you see?
B: I then saw a huge tidal wave heading towards the coast. Everyone panicked and ran for their lives.
A: What did you do?
B: I ran towards the shops but the wave was already behind me, swallowing up people, cars, boats and buildings.
A: Did you manage to escape?
B: I felt something very hard and heavy knock me down, and then I felt myself drowning in water. When I woke up, I was lying on a hospital bed.
A: Did you get any injuries?
B: I got a broken arm, and my face and legs were bruised. I have never experienced anything more terrifying in my whole life.

By age ten I was clearing tables and washing plates. My father made it clear that I had to meet certain standards. I had to be on time, hard-working and polite to the customers. I was never paid for any work I did. One day I made the mistake of telling Dad I thought he should give me ten pounds a week. He said, "OK, then how about you paying me for the three meals a day when you eat here and for the times you bring your friends here for free drinks?" He figured I owed him about 40 pounds a week. This taught me quite a lot. Unit 2 Part B Text 1

丁伟电气102 1：McDonald’s Business Model: The Three-legged Stool Script McDonald’s Corporation (MCD) is one of the leading fast-food restaurant chains in the world, touching the lives of people every day. As the world’s largest chain of restaurants, it primarily sells hamburgers, chicken, french fries, milkshakes, soft drinks, etc. The business began in 1940, with a restaurant opened by brothers Dick and Mac McDonald. Initially, they just owned a hotdog stand. But after establishing the restaurant they served around 25 items, which were mostly barbecued. It became a popular and profitable teen hangout. Their introduction of the “Speed Service System” in 1948 established the principles of the modern fast-food restaurant. The present corporation dates its founding to the opening of a franchised restaurant by Ray Kroc on April 15, 1955. In effect, Kroc opened his first and the overall ninth restaurant in Chicago, Illinois, and gave birth to McDonald’s Corporation. In 1958, the restaurant chain sold its 100 millionth hamburger. In 1960, Kroc renamed his company as “McDonald’s Corporation”. In 1961, Kroc convinced the McDonald brothers to sell the business rights to him in the company. Thus he purchased the brothers’ equity for a s um of $2.7million and led to its worldwide expansion.

Unit1 蛙的故事 最近发生了几桩怪事儿。 我在北威斯康星州的树林中有一座小木屋。是我亲手搭建的，前面还有一间花房。住在里面相当惬意。实际上我是在户外做音频制作和环境方面的工作--作为干这一行的工具，我还装备了一间带电脑的工作室。 还有一只树蛙也在我的工作室中住了下来。 去年十一月，我第一次惊讶地发现他（只是这样称呼罢了，事实上我并不知道该称“他”还是“她”）坐在电脑的音箱上。我把他放到花房里去，认为他呆在那儿会更舒服一些。可他又跑回来呆在原地。很快我就习惯了有他做伴，清晨我上网查收邮件和阅读新闻的时候，他也在一旁关注这个世界。 可上周，我突然对这个爬上爬下的“小绿人或小灰人”产生了好奇心。 于是有一天，我正在工作室里干活，电脑嗡嗡作响。当树蛙从我面前爬过时，我不得不停止工作。他停下了并转过身来，坐在那儿看着我。好吧，我也干脆停下来望着他。五个月了，他一直这样陪着我。我突然有一股强烈的欲望想了解他：为什么他要呆在这儿而不乐意呆在花房里？我认为对树蛙来说，花房显然要舒适得多。 “你为什么呆在这儿？”我情不自禁地问他。 我目不转睛地盯着他，他也直视着我。然后我听到一种叮咚声。这种声音似乎一下子就进入了我的大脑中枢，因为它和电脑里发出来的声音十分接近。在那个声音里我听到树蛙对我“说”：“因为我想让你明白”。唷，太不可思议了。“明白什么？”我脑海中突然跳出了这个问题。然后经过短暂的体验这种交流之后，我觉得我已经理解了树蛙待在这儿的原因。我开始理解树蛙只是想听到其他同类的叫声并并与之交流。或许他误以为计算机发出的声音就是其他树蛙在呼唤他。 真是有趣。 我继续工作。我正在写一个关于全球气候变化的故事。有个朋友刚好发过来一份传真，说地球的温度正以每十年1.9度的速度上升。我知道，照这种速度下去，每年春天我都爱去提取树浆的这片枫林，到我孩子的那一代就将不复存在。我的故乡美丽的威斯康星州也会在下一代变成一片草原。 此刻，树蛙从我脚背跳过去站在电脑前的地板上。然后他伸出手来从后面拢起左耳凝神倾听，接着他又站在电脑前伸出右手拢起另一支耳朵。他这样转动着脑袋，聆听那个声音，非常专心致志。他的皮肤起了微妙的变化，呈现出一种亮丽的绿色，然后他就用尽全力跳到电脑上。 我猛然想起去年在收音机里听到的一则关于青蛙的消息，说是全世界的青蛙正在死亡。消息说因为青蛙的皮肤就像是一个内里朝外的肺，所以正在受到污染和全球气候变化的影响。据说已经发现有些青蛙的皮肤已变得像纸一样干瘪。还说青蛙是一个"物种指示器"，由于对环境敏感，这个物种会先遭灭顶之灾。 这时我明白了。 青蛙向我们传递了一个信息。一些头脑清醒的人士也曾向我们传递过同样的信息，那就是"我们别无选择。"我们已经进入了关键时刻，为了人类的子孙后代，也为青蛙，我们必须对这个星球负起主人的责任。 因为我们休戚相关。

Unit 1 Passage A (p12) 学无止境 终考的最后一天，东部一所的大学里，一群大四的工科生聚集在一幢教学楼的台阶上，谈论着即刻就要开始的考试。他们脸上都充满自信。在参加即将到来的毕业典礼和从事未来的工作前，这是他们最后一门考试。 他们有的谈起了已经找到的工作，有的则谈论着要找的工作。4年的大学学习给了他们全部的自信，使他们觉得自己足以征服世界。 眼前这场考试，不过是小事一桩。这门课的教授已经说过，除考场上不能交头接耳外，允许他们带任何书或笔记到考场。考生们依次进入考场，心情轻松而愉快。当教授把考卷发给在座的考生后，学生们脸上的笑容更加灿烂，因为考卷上只有五道论述题。 3个小时过去了，教授开始收回考卷。考生们的脸上充满惊慌的表情，自信已经荡然无存。当教授收完考卷，看着全班学生时，所有的人都沉默不语。 她扫视着一张张焦虑的脸问道：“5道题答完的有多少？” 没人举手。 “答完4道的有多少？” 还是没有人举手。 “完成3道题的？2道题的？” 考生们有些坐不住了，不安地动了动。 “那么，有没有写完一道题的？我想总有人做完一道题吧！” 考场里还是一片寂静。教授放下手中的考卷，说：“果真不出我所料。” “我只是想让你们牢牢记住，即使你们已经学完了4年工科课程，在这个领域里，你们还有很多东西不懂。在你们今后的日常工作中，类似于今天考卷上你们无法回答的问题很常见。”接着，她微笑着补充说：“你
们都会通过考试，但是请记住，即使你们现在已经毕业了，你们的学习才刚刚开始。” 多年后，这位老师的姓名已经被淡忘，但她的教诲却深深地刻在记忆中。 Read and translate 1. →译文：He has no longer written to his friends ever since he got a mobile phone. 2.→译文：Even though he is very busy, he spends at least two hours every day surfing the Internet, aiming to know about the latest development in this area / field. 3. →译文：Professor Li made a short speech at the commencement, his words of which were deeply impressed upon my memory. 4. →译文：Talking of the final exams the students were not nervous at all.

Passage B (P17) 时光如能倒流 四年的学习生涯结束，毕业的那一刻终于到来。不到两个星期我就要毕业了。回首往昔，竟不敢相信时间就这样匆匆逝去。我依然记得第一天去上课时的情景，我一边望着课表背面的地图，一边询问教学楼在哪儿。现在我已是即将毕业的老生，用羡慕的眼光看待大一新生。我每天都祈愿时间会凝滞，让接下来的两周过得更慢一些。许多人迫不及待地等待毕业，我却与他们恰恰相反。我希望时间倒流，让我将大学生活的每一天重新来过。 对我来说，大学生活是非常重要的学习经历，绝大多数学习过程都是在课外学到的。大学第二年对我来说也许是生命中最精彩的一年。正是这一年，我终于让妈妈确信我住校没有问题，她同意了我住校。也正是这一年，我结交了一些终身好友。经历了许多成功与失败使我对自己有了更深的了解。大二生活使我体验了许多新的事物：山地宿营，在报纸上发表一些拙陋的诗歌，在课堂上给老师画漫画。 漫步在熟悉的校园路上，我陷入了深深的反思和对往昔的回忆之中。我多希望能够重头来过，再次扑捉大学生活的快乐和兴奋。一想到就要毕业我的心就惶惶恐恐。从记事起我就一直在读书，我感到还有许多东西想学，可我不得不离开学校毕业了。世界如此之大，可能发生的事情又如此之多。过去的四年我一直
Unit 2 Lesson 1, Audio “Most people you meet know more about comics than I do,” laughs Naif Al-Mutawa, creator of The 99, the world’s first comic-book series whose superheroes are based on Islamic culture. “Strength, honor, truth, mercy, invention, generosity, wisdom, tolerance—these are some of the superpowers possessed by my heroes,” emphasizes Al-Mutawa. “No one hero has more than a single power, and no power is expressed to the degree that God possesses i t,’’ he adds. There are 99 young heroes from 99 countries, from all walks of life. All of them are Muslim, but not all are Arabs, and the number is almost evenly split between boys and girls. As Al-Mutawa explains, whenever these characters collaborate to solve problems, there is an implicit message of tolerance and acceptance, a theme central to the series. Unlike many comic book heroes, the 99 do not use weapons. “They use the gifts they have within themselves,” Al- Mutawa notes, adding that “The 99 is not about what kids shouldn’t be doing. It’s about learning how to use the power within them to make a difference.” Although the series is not religious, it aims to communicate Islamic virtues which are, as viewed by
