BUSINESS STUDENT BUILDING BRIDGES “欢迎你，谢蕾！”商科学生搭建文化交流的桥梁 Paragraph 1 Six months ago, 19-year-old Xie Lei said goodbye to her family and friends and boarded a plane for London. It was the first time that she had left China. "I was very excited but also quite nervous. I didn't know what to expect," Xie Lei recalled. 半年前，19岁的谢蕾告别家人和朋友，登上了飞往伦敦的班机。这是她第一次离开中国。“我很激动，也很紧张，不知道会发生什么。”谢蕾回忆道。 【重点必背】 board a plane for—— 登上去……的飞机 It was the first time that这是某人第一次…… recall vt.&vi. 记起；回想起 【课文佳句】It was the first time that she had left China.（It was the first time that...） 这是她第一次离开中国。 Paragraph 2 Xie Lei is studying for a business qualification at a university in China and has come to our university on a year-long exchange programme. "I chose the exchange programme because I wanted to learn about global business and improve my English. My ambition is to set up a business in China after graduation," she explained. 谢蕾在中国一所大学攻读商科，来我校参加为期一年的交流项目。“之所以选择这个交流项目，是因为我想了解全球商务，并提高我的英语水平。我的志向是毕业后在中国创办一家企业。”她解释道。 【重点必背】 qualification n.（通过考试或学习课程取得的）资格；学历→ qualify vt.&vi.（使）具备资格；（使）合格 → qualified adj. 有资格的；称职的 exchange programme交流项目 ambition n. 追求的目标；夙愿；野心；抱负→ ambitious adj. 有野心的；有雄心的 set up建立；开业；树立 Paragraph 3 At first, Xie Lei had to adapt to life in a different country. "You have to get used to a whole new life," she said. "I had to learn how to use public transport and how to ask for things I didn't know the English names for. When I got lost, I had to ask passers-by for help, but people here speak fast and use words I'm not familiar with. I ask them to repeat themselves a lot!" 起初，谢蕾不得不去适应异国他乡的生活。“你必须习惯一种全新的生活。”她说，“我得学会使用公共交通，学会要到我不知道英文名称的东西。迷路时，我得向路人求助，但是这里的人讲话语速很快，而且使用的是我不熟悉的单词。我老是让他们重复！” 【重点必背】 adapt to适应 get used to习惯于 how to use / how to ask for（句式：疑问词＋动词不定式）如何使用 / 如何要到 【课文佳句】I had to learn how to use public transport and how to ask for things I didn't know the English names for.（疑问词＋动词不定式） 我不得不学习如何使用公共交通工具，如何要到我不知道英语名字的东西。 Paragraph 4 Although some foreign students live in campus accommodation, Xie Lei chose to live with a host family, who can help with her adaptation to the new culture. "When I miss home, I feel comforted to have a second family," Xie Lei said. "When there's something I don't know or understand, I can ask them. They are also keen to learn about China. Laura, the daughter of my host family, wants to study in China in the future. We take turns to cook each evening. They really love my stir-fried tomatoes and eggs! Laura says she always feels hungry when she smells it, so I taught her how to cook it, too." 虽然一些留学生住在学校里，但是谢蕾选择住在寄宿家庭，有助于她适应异国文化。“有第二个家，想家时我会得到些安慰。”谢蕾说。“当我有不知道或不理解的事情时，我可以咨询他们。他们对中国也很感兴趣，我房东的女儿劳拉将来想到中国求学。我们每晚轮流做饭，他们真的很爱吃我的番茄炒蛋！劳拉说，每次闻到香味，她就感到饥肠辘辘，于是我教她做这道菜。” 【重点必背】 accommodation n. 住处；膳宿；停留处→ accommodate vt. 提供住处；容纳 host family寄宿家庭 adaptation n. 适应；改编本→ adapt vt.（使）适应；改编 comfort n. 安慰；令人感到安慰的人或事物；舒服；安逸 vt. 安慰；抚慰→ comfortable adj. 令人舒适的 → uncomfortable adj. 不舒服的 keen to渴望；热衷于 take turns轮流 Paragraph 5 Another challenge for Xie Lei is the academic requirements. The first time that she had to write an essay, her tutor explained that she must acknowledge what other people had said if she cited their ideas, but that he mainly wanted to know what she thought! Xie Lei was confused because she thought she knew less than other people. Her tutor advised her to read lots of information in order to form a wise opinion of her own. 谢蕾面临的另一个挑战是学业要求。她第一次写论文时，导师跟她解释说，如果引用别人的观点就一定要注明，不过他主要还是想了解她本人的观点！谢蕾困惑不解，因为她觉得自己懂得没有别人多。她的导师建议她广泛阅读文献，形成自己睿智的观点。 【重点必背】 academic requirements 学业要求 tutor n.（英国大学中的）助教；导师；家庭教师 cite vt. 引用；引述 【课文佳句】The first time that she had to write an essay, her tutor explained that she must acknowledge what other people had said if she cited their ideas, but that he mainly wanted to know what she thought!（the first time引导时间状语从句） 她第一次写论文时，导师跟她解释说，如果引用别人的观点就一定要注明，不过导师主要是想知道她自己是怎么想的。 Paragraph 6 Xie Lei also found many courses included students' participation in class as part of the final result. Students need to generate ideas, offer examples, apply concepts, and raise questions, as well as give presentations. At first, Xie Lei had no idea what she should say, but what surprised her was that she found herself speaking up in class after just a few weeks. "My presentation on traditional Chinese art was a great success, which boosted my confidence," she said. "I'll use these skills back home for presentations. They'll help me build a strong business in the future." 此外，谢蕾发现很多课程的最终成绩都包含学生的课堂参与。学生需要形成观点、提供例子、运用概念、提出问题并且还要进行展示。刚开始的时候，谢蕾不知道该说些什么。但令她惊喜的是，仅仅几周时间，她就能在课堂上大胆发言了。“我的中国传统艺术展示非常成功，提升了我的自信心。”她说，“回国后，我会将这些技能运用到展示中，帮助我未来打造一家强大的企业。” 【重点必背】 participation n. 参加；参与→ participate vi. 参加；参与 → participant n. 参与者 generate vt. 产生；引起 presentation n. 报告；陈述；出示；拿出→ present vt. 颁发；赠送；呈递 n. 礼物 adj. 现在的；出席的 speak up大声点说；明确表态 boost vt. 使增长；使兴旺 n. 增长；提高；激励 【课文佳句】At first, Xie Lei had no idea what she should say, but what surprised her was that she found herself speaking up in class after just a few weeks.（find＋宾语＋宾补） 刚开始，谢蕾不知道该说什么。但使她惊奇的是，没过几周，她就能在课堂上大胆发言了。 Paragraph 7 Now halfway through her exchange year, Xie Lei feels much more at home in the UK. What seemed strange before now appears quite normal to her. "Engaging in British culture has helped," she said. "As well as studying hard, I've been involved in social activities. British people are fascinated by our culture and eager to learn more about it, so I'm keen to share my culture with them. While I'm learning about business, I'm also acting as a cultural messenger building a bridge between us." 一年的交换生生涯现已过半，谢蕾感觉在英国过得轻松自如多了。以前看似奇怪的事情现在对她来说显得十分平常。“融入英国文化使我受益匪浅。”她说，“努力学习之余，我还参加了一些社交活动。英国人对我们的文化十分着迷，渴望了解更多中国文化，因此我也乐于同他们分享。攻读商科的同时，我也扮演着文化使者的角色，在中外文化之间架起一座桥梁。” 【重点必背】 feel at home舒服自在；不拘束 engage in（使）从事；参与 as well as同(一样也)；和；还 be involved in参与；卷入 build a bridge between在……之间架起桥梁 Paragraph 8 We will follow Xie Lei's progress in later editions, but for now we wish her all the best. 我们会在随后的几期中跟踪报道谢蕾的进展情况，但现在我们祝她一切顺利。 【重点必背】wish her all the best—— 祝她一切顺利 【单元重点词汇】 1.qualification n.(通过考试或学习课程取得的)资格；学历→qualify vt.& vi.(使)具备资格；(使)合格→qualified adj.有资格的；称职的 2.ambition n.追求的目标；夙愿；野心；抱负→ambitious adj.有野心的；有雄心的 3.adaptation n.适应；改编本→adapt vt.(使)适应；改编 4.comfort n.安慰；令人感到安慰的人或事物；舒服；安逸 vt.安慰；抚慰→comfortable adj.令人舒适的；舒服的→uncomfortable adj.不舒服的 5.participate vi.参加；参与→participation n.参加；参与→participant n.参与者 6.presentation n.报告；陈述；出示；拿出→present vt.颁发；赠送；呈递 n.礼物 adj.现在的；出席的 7.engage vi.参加；参与(活动) vt.吸引(注意力、兴趣)；雇用→engaged adj.忙于；从事于；已订婚的→engagement n.订婚；约定 8.involve vt.包含；需要；涉及；影响；(使)参加→involved adj.参与的；投入的→involvement n.参与 9.overwhelming adj.无法抗拒的；巨大的；压倒性的→overwhelm vt.(常用于被动语态)使不知所措；压倒 10.homesickness n.思乡病；乡愁→homesick adj.想家的；思乡的 11.motivated adj.积极的；主动的→motivation n.动力；积极性；动机→motivate vt.成为……的动机；激发；激励 12.advisor n.(also ­ser)顾问→advise vt.& vi.建议；劝告→advice n.建议；忠告 13.reasonable adj.有道理的；合情理的→reasonably adv.有理地；合理地→reason n.原因；道理 vt.& vi.推理，推断→unreasonable adj.不合理的；不公正的 14.expectation n.期望；预期；期待→expect vt.预料；期望 15.applicant n.申请人→apply vi.申请 vt.应用；适用；涂；敷→application n.申请；申请书 16.exposure n.接触；体验；暴露；揭露→expose vt.使接触；使体验；显露；使暴露于(险境) 17.departure n.离开；启程；出发→depart vi.& vt.离开；启程；出发 18.dramatic adj.巨大的；突然的；急剧的；戏剧(般)的→dramatically adv.突然地；戏剧地；引人注目地→drama n.戏剧；戏剧性事件 19.behave vt.表现 vi.& vt.表现得体；有礼貌→behaviour/behavior n.行为；举止 20.surroundings n.[pl.]环境；周围的事物→surrounding adj.周围的；附近的→surround vt.包围；围绕 21.depressed adj.沮丧的；意志消沉的→depress vt.使沮丧；使忧愁→depression n.沮丧；抑郁 22.strengthen vi.& vt.加强；增强；巩固→strong adj.强壮的→strength n.体力；优点 23.optimistic adj.乐观的→optimism n.乐观主义 24.competence n.能力；胜任；本领→competent adj.有能力的；称职的 25.cooperate vi.合作；协作；配合→cooperation n.合作；协作 26.logical adj.合乎逻辑的；合情合理的→logically adv.逻辑上地→logic n.逻辑(学)；道理 【单元重点句式】 1.句式：it is/was the first time (that) ...这是某人第一次…… 原句：It was the first time that she had left China. 这是她第一次离开中国。 2.句式：疑问词＋动词不定式 原句：I had to learn how to use public transport and how to ask for things I didn't know the English names for. 我不得不学习如何使用公共交通工具，如何要到我不知道英语名字的东西。 3.句式：时间名词作连词 原句：The first time that she had to write an essay， her tutor explained that she must acknowledge what other people had said if she cited their ideas， but that he mainly wanted to know what she thought！她第一次写论文时，导师跟她解释说，如果引用别人的观点就一定要注明，不过导师主要是想知道她自己是怎么想的。 4.句式：find＋宾语＋宾语补足语 原句：At first， Xie Lei had no idea what she should say， but what surprised her was that she found herself speaking up in class after just a few weeks. 刚开始，谢蕾不知道该说什么。但使她惊奇的是，没过几周，她就能在课堂上大胆发言了。 5.句式：动词­ing形式作主语 原句：Cooperating with people from diverse cultural backgrounds helps us view the world from different angles and thus gives us more insight into our own culture.与来自不同文化背景的人合作有助于我们从不同的视角看待世界，进而让我们对自己的文化有更深的了解。 【小练1】课文语法填空 （根据课文内容，用所给词的正确形式填空） 1.
