段落
Unit1:
中国人通常在屋子里挂灯笼过元宵(the Lantern Festival) 。自制纸灯笼只需要彩色硬纸、剪刀和胶水(construction paper, scissors and glue) 。首先，将一张长方形的(rectangular) 纸对折，从对折线往开口处，每隔4 厘米就剪开一直线。每次不要剪到底，留边约2 厘米。然后打开硬纸，将纸卷成圆筒状(cylinder) ，接着在两条短边上涂好胶水后把它们黏在一起。最后，剪下长12 厘米、宽1 厘米的一硬纸条做灯笼柄，并把剪好的纸条黏在灯笼上端的内沿上。
Chinese people always celebrate the Lantern Festival by hanging up Chinese lanterns in the house. Construction paper, scissors and glue are all things you need for DIY of a paper lantern. First, fold a rectangular piece of paper in half, and cut along the folded edge every 4 cm. Don’ t cut a way to the edge of the paper, leaving about 2 cm at the top of each cut. Next, unfold the paper,and roll it into a cylinder. Then apply glue along the short edges and press the paper together. Last, make the handle of the lantern by cutting a strip of construction paper 12 cm long and 1 cm wide, and glue the strip cut- out to the inside edges of the lantern’s top margin.
Unit2:
传统上,中文里没有隐私这一概念。这是因为在中国，集体主义这一价值观受到高度赞扬。另一方面，中国人喜欢和家人住在一起，他
们认为这样显示了和谐的人际关系。我们甚至看到在中国，不同的家庭住在一个大院子里。在这样的居住环境下是没有隐私可言的。因此，中国人觉得凡事不必隐藏。
Traditionally, there is no equivalent term for “privacy”Chinese. This is because the value of collectivism is praised highly in China. On the other hand, Chinese people enjoy living together with their family members because it is a way to show a harmonious human relationship. It is not strange for us to find that even people from different families share a big courtyard in China. With such arrangements, privacy would be hardly possible. So, Chinese people feel that nothing should be concealed.
Unit3:
在中国，婚礼习俗各地不同，但也有共同点。在过去，举行婚礼前，新娘会由一位当地德高望重的老年妇女为她用彩色的棉绳扎头发。
新娘要穿红裙子，因为中国人认为红色喜庆。新郎也要穿红褂子（be in red gown ）。他们要拜（kowtow ）天地，父母和夫妻对拜。在有的地方，婚礼的当晚亲戚朋友们会闹洞房（play games in the bridal chamber ）。婚后的第三天，新婚夫妇要回新娘的娘家，和亲戚们聚餐。
In China, marriage customs differ by region, but there is something in common. In the past, before the wedding ceremony, the bride would
be helped by a respectable old woman to tie up her hair with colorful cotton threads. She should wear a red skirt as the Chinese believed red is the symbol of delight. The bridegroom was also in a red gown. They should kowtow to worship heaven, parents and each other. On the night of the wedding day, there was a custom in some places — relatives or friends playing games in the bridal chamber. On the third day of them marriage, the new couple would go back to the bride’s parents’home. They would be received with a dinner party including relatives.
Unit4:
中国中小学生的想象力和创造力相当贫乏。经过对21 个国家的调查，中国儿童计算能力排名第一，而想象力排在最后，创造力排名倒数第五。对此，专家们建议通过立法加强中国中小学生的“想象力教育”。儿童缺乏想象力是一个关乎中国科学界命运的问题。中国的考试制度严重制约了学生的想象力和创造力，中国的教育体制的改革应该从解放儿童的好奇心开始。
China ’ s primary and middle school students’imagination and creative ability are quite poor. In a survey of 21 countries, the counting ability of Chinese children ranked No.1, while imagination ranked at the bottom and creative ability ranked fifth from the bottom. Regarding this, experts suggest strengthening “imagination-oriented education for” China ’primarys and middle school students through legislation. The lack
of imagination among Chinese children is a matter of concern for the scientific world. The examination system in China has severely restricted students imagination and creativity, and the reform of China ’educations system should start with the liberation of children’s curiosity.
Unit5:
自去年11 月以来，中国的通货膨胀持续上扬。据NBS（国家数据局National Bureau of Statistics ）表明，由于寒冬的影响，食品价格的上涨是推动一月份CPI 上涨1.5%的主因。因为近年来人们的饮食和消费习惯发生了极大的改变，专家认为，为了更清晰实时地反映居民的生活总支出和经济压力的状况，CPI 评估标准需要做出与实际情况相符的调整(modification)。由于房屋支出占收入的比重越来越大，因此相应的调整似乎是有必要，同时，政策的制定者要正确解读CPI 及其他指标(metrics) 以判断经济运行的状况(economic performance)。
China’s inflations ha ve continued to rise since November last year. Its CPI rose 1.5 percent in January, mainly boosted by food price increases due to the cold winter weather, according to the NBS (National Bureau of Statistics). Since people and consumption’s eating habits have changed greatly in recent years, experts held that the criteria for evaluating CPI needed modification in line with actual conditions to give a clearer and real-time picture of the general living costs and financial
pressure of the citizens. Housing costs occupy an increasingly bigger share of incomes, so corresponding modifications seem to be necessary, as policy-makers will read CPI and other metrics for judging economic performance.

3.Many products for sale seem to scream at us, "Buy me! Buy me!" Advertising is a big busin ess in our world with many products competing for our attention. Think of the last time you boug ht clothes. You probably noticed the variety of colors, patterns, fabrics and brands you could choo se from. Which kind of soft drink would you like to have today or what kind of computer do you want? Advertisers are skilled in the art of making their products look the best to appeal to our se nses. But products aren't always what they seem. Sometimes advertising is deceptive and as cons umers ,we must be careful about what we choose to buy. It is important to learn to compare prod ucts and identify our purpose in purchasing the things we need. But the good thing about advertising is that it helps people to make decisions and refine thei r choices. In the United States, the Ad Council creates timely public service messages to the nation. Th eir purpose is to raise awareness of public problems that citizens can respond to. Inspiring ads ca use individuals to take action and even save lives. Pollution in America, for example has been red uced over the years because of the creative Public Service advertisements that the council provid es" Please, please don't be a litter bug, 'cause every 'litter bit' hurts."

21世纪大学英语第一册课文的翻译 Unit1 TextA 优等生的奥秘 埃德温·基斯特莎莉·瓦伦丁·基斯特 现在是剑桥大学理科一年级学生的阿历克斯，曾在曼彻斯特的中学校队里踢足球，还导演过学校的戏剧演出——但他中学毕业时得了五个A。在布里斯托尔大学攻读英语的阿曼达在中学里参加过戏剧演出，还经常打网球，但她仍然得到了四个A。 像他们这样的优等生是如何做到这一点的呢？脑子好使并不是唯一的答案。最有天赋的学生未必在考试中取得最好的成绩。懂得如何充分利用自己的才能要重要得多。 学习刻苦也不能说明全部问题。在这些成绩优秀的学生中，有些人投入的时间其实比那些分数低的同学还少。班级中拔尖学生的成功之道在于他们掌握了一些基本的技巧，这些技巧其他人也能很容易地学到。根据教育专家和学生们自己的叙述，优等生成功的奥秘有以下几点。 1.全神贯注！拔尖生不允许他们的学习时间受到干扰。一旦书本打开，便电话不接，电视不看，报纸不读。“这并不意味着对生活中的重要事情置之不理，”阿曼达解释说，“这意味着要安排好学习时间，以便能全神贯注。要是我牵挂一位患病的朋友，我会在做功课之前先给她打个电话。这样我坐下来学习时，就能真正集中心思了。” 2.在任何地方——或所有的地方学习。亚利桑那州一位教授曾奉命辅导一些成绩欠佳的大学运动员。他记得有一名赛跑运动员每天都要训练。他曾说服他利用这段时间记忆生物学术语。另一名学生则把词汇表贴在盥洗室墙上，每天刷牙时都记住一个生词。 3.安排好资料。汤姆在中学时打过篮球。“我非常忙，不可能为了找一支铅笔或一本不见的笔记本而浪费时间。我把每样东西都放在随后可取的地方，”他说。新墨西哥州学生保罗为每门功课备有两个文件夹，一个放当天布置的作业，另一个放已完成要交的家庭作业。一个抽屉把必需的用品放在一起，这样就可减少因找东西而浪费的时间。 4.安排好时间。当教师布置写一篇长论文时，阿历克斯会花两三天时间去阅读与题目有关的资料并做笔记，然后写出草稿，再写成论文。他会计划好在作业该交的前两三天完成，以便如果花费的时间超过预期，他还能在规定的最后期限前完成。阿曼达严格遵守一张学习时间表，其中包括每两小时休息一次。“在你过度疲劳时还试图学习并不明智，”她指出，“短暂的休息，哪怕只是伸展一下身体，呼吸呼吸新鲜空气，也能带来意想不到的效果。” 5.学会阅读。“我过去常花许多时间阅读一些无关的资料，”阿曼达回忆说，“但后来我习惯了快读；如果一段文章的第一句话无关紧要，我便接着读下一段。”“我修过的最好的一门课便是快速阅读，”一名俄克拉荷马州的学生说，“我不仅提高了每分钟阅读的词数，而且学会了首先看书的目录和插图。这样，当我开始阅读时，我就对阅读材料先有了一些了解，而且能记住更多的内容。”在这些学生看来，有效阅读的奥秘就在于做一个主动的阅读者，即能不断提出一些能使自己充分理解所读材料的问题。 6.做好笔记。“在写任何东西之前，我先把一页纸分成两部分，”阿曼达说，“左边部分约占纸宽的三分之一；右边部分占三分之二。我把笔记写在宽的一边，而把中心思想写在左边。这在复习时非常有用，因为你马上就能看到为什么这些材料是有关的，而不用为信息量太大而发愁。”在下课铃响起之前，多数学生便已经合上书本，收好作业，和朋友们说说话儿，准备离开了。而聪明的学生却利用这几分钟，用两三句话写出这堂课的要点，下一次上课之前，他便可以把这些要点浏览一遍。 7.问问题。“如果你问问题，你立刻就会知道，你是否已经掌握了要点，”阿历克斯说。课堂参与是一种求知欲的显示。例如，在经济学课上，好奇的学生会问，中国经济怎么可能既是社会主义的，又是市场驱动的，从而使他们不仅对于“什么”，而且对于“为什么”和“怎么样”产生兴趣。 8.一起学习。一起学习的价值从加州大学伯克利分校的一项试验中显示了出来。该校的
