好好学习 天天向上 英语必须不能挂大学英语3期末考点总结一、选词填空 Unit1A homesteader (自耕农) is a person who lives a self-reliant lifestyle with major emphasis on home production. while the Industrial Age is being replaced by information and electronics, some people try to seek an escape from the social, environmental, and economic madness of the modern age and begin to consider returning to the country. As this lifestyle is so enjoyable, satisfying and rewarding, more and more people are prepared to quit their job in the city and start a new and more meaningful life on their various farms. For some it has become not only a way of life, but a way of looking at the world. Of course, life in the country can be pretty tough. While it is an enjoyment to be so close to Nature, you may have to reduce your dependence on fuels by cutting back on your daily consumption. You may also have to prepare your own meals every day and provide your own low-cost entertainment without the luxuries that are common in cities. On balance, however, living in the country has long been a part of the American Dream. Generations of Americans have considered the country an ideal setting in which to live and raise a family.Unit2Despite the name, the Underground Railroad was not really a railroad, but was a network of people who assisted fugitive slaves. Many fugitives who escaped to the North and Canada received assistance along the way from individuals who were involved in this network. By the early 19th century, the organization became so successful that it is estimatedthat that between 1810 and 1850,100,000 slaves escaped from the South through the Underground Railroad.It was not a(n) coincidence that it was called the Underground Railroad. Steam railroads had just emerged and the terms used to describe the people who helped and the fugitives were related to the railroad line. Fugitive slaves were called parcels and passengers, the helpers were the conductors, the people who provided their homes as refuge were called stationmasters, and the homes were referred to as depots or stations. The route used was an important part of a successful escape. There were numerous secret routes that a conductor could use.The one used depended on where the search parties and slave catchers were stationed. Some trips required the use of many different routes. If it appeared that they might be in danger, a guide would change paths. Some guides and fugitives even hid out in bushes and swamps for many days until it was safe to continue on. Quickness was not the main concern , instead safety was most important and as a result they often zigzagged in order to avoid capture.Unit3Statistics show that at some point in your life, you will get robbed. Things get even worse for apartment dwellers because so many people pass in and out of an apartment building, and it is much tougher to keep non-residents out. So what to do? Dont panic. Yes, apartments are liable to robbery, but there are options other than barricading yourself in your apartment with a shotgun. We suggest that you use some common sense to shift that target from your door. Then the burglar will rob the less guarded, not you. We know what youre thinking: I ll never get robbed. Whod want to steal a half can of Diet Coke and an electric toothbrush? If those really are the only things in your apartment, you have every reason not to worry. However, if you have something youd like to keep - say, a TV, a stereo, a computer, a Picasso - its wise to be cautious .Your goal is not to set up any sophisticated security systems to hold thieves at bay; your goal is to keep criminals from even trying to break into your apartment in the first place. I f someone really wants to break in, chances are that he/she is going to find a way by breaking a window or climbing up the fire escape. Therefore, you should remove all signs that say, Hey, look at me! Lots of goodies and no security! Come on in! Lock the door when you leave. Dont leave the windows open all day long. Dont tape notes on the door directed to your mate reading Gone all day! Left the door unlocked for you! Just use your brains!Unit5Wake up each day and give gratitude for what you have. Instead of giving any thought at all to what you do not have in your life, just spend as much time as you possibly can each day giving thanks for all of the people, opportunities, material possessions, good health and any other things that you have in your life that make it so good. It is said that we take so much for granted that we sometimes forget to be thankful for the small things that make our lives so much richer. If you have ever been out of breath or under water for too long, the next breaths you take are that much sweeter. Tell others how much you love and cherish them every chance you get. You may never see someone again so you always want to leave them by telling them just how special they are to you. When you are telling them how much you care about them and how thankful you are for having them in your life, give them specific examples of what you love about them the most. Take the time to appreciate every little thing in your life. When the sun is shining , the grass is wet beneath your feet and your dog is barking, give thanks for these small miracles . Every moment we have is a gift . Use your time to show and tell others how important and special they are. Giving someone your time and kind words is the greatest gift of all. 二、翻译句子1、 我们的计算机系统出了毛病，但我觉得问题比较小。We have a problem with the computer system, but I think its fairly minor.2、父亲去世时我还小，不能独立生活。就在那时，家乡的父老接过了养育我的责任。My father died when I was too young to live on my own.
