With the inside-out approach, private victories precede public victories. These private victories are simply promises you ma

26、. As a result of expanded access and higher rates of participation, todays students are diverse in their interests, circumstances, motives and academic preparation.What has been the response? There is much to praise. Compared to a few decades ago, higher education systems in many countries have beco

Now educational network and virtual universities have appeared. Meanwhile, a new

29、challenge to teaching looms ahead: a pressure to internationalize curriculum offerings. Such a change calls for a thorough rethinking of fundamental aspects of course design. Many universities and institutions have taken steps toward globalized learning. But with limited results.Nevertheless, furthe

32、目：英语翻译与写作)I have a mind to fill the rest of this paper with an accident that happened just under my eyes, and has made a great impression upon me. I have just passed part of this summer at an old romantic seat of my Lord Harcourts, which he has lent me. It overlooks a common field, where, under the

33、shadow of a haycock, sat two lovers, as constant as ever were found in romance, beneath a spreading beech. The name of the one(let it sound as it will)was John Hewett:of the other, Sarah Drew. John was a well-set man about five-and-twenty: Sarah a brown woman of eighteen. John had for several months

34、 borne the labor of the day in the same field with Sarah: when she milked, it was his morning and evening charge to bring the cows to her pail. Their love was the talk, but not the scandal of the neighborhood: for all they aimed at was the blameless possession of each other in marriage. It was but t

35、his very morning that he obtained her parents consent, and it was but till the next week that they were to wait to be happy.Perhaps this very day, in the intervals of their work, they were talking of their wedding clothes: and John was now matching several kinds of poppies and field flowers to her c

36、omplexion, to make her a present of knots for the day. While they were thus employed(it was on the last day of July, )a terrible storm of thunder and lightning arose, that drove the laborers to what shelter the trees or hedges afforded. Sarah, frightened and out of breath, sunk on a haycock, and Joh

37、n(who never separated from her)sat by her side, having raked two or three heaps together to secure her. Immediately there was heard so loud a crack as if heaven had burst asunder. The laborers, all solicitous for each others safety, called to one another: those who were nearest our lovers, hearing n

38、o answer, stepped to the place where they lay. They first saw a little smoke, and after, this faithful pair:John with one arm about Sarahs neck, and the other held over her face, as if to screen her from the lightning. They were struck dead, and already grown stiff and cold in this tender posture. T

39、here was no mark or discoloring on their bodies, only that Sarahs eyebrow was a little singed, and a small spot between her breasts. They were buried next day in one grave, in the parish of Stanton Harcourt:where my Lord Harcourt, at my request, has erected a monument over them.16 Translate the unde

40、rlined part into Chinese(四川外国浯大学 2011 研，考试科目：英语翻译与写作)All day it streamed rain: the island ran like a sop, there was no dry spot to be found: and when I lay down that night, between two boulders that made a kind of roof, my feet were in a bog.The second day I crossed the island to all sides. There wa

41、s no one part of it better than another: it was all desolate and rocky: nothing living on it but game birds which I lacked the means to kill, and the gulls which haunted the outlying rocks in a prodigious number. But the creek, or strait, that cut off the isle from the main-land of the Ross, opened

42、out on the north into a bay, and the bay again opened into the Sound of Iona: and it was the neighborhood of this place that I chose to be my home: though if I had thought upon the very name of home in such a spot, I must have burst out weeping.I had good reasons for my choice. There was in this par

43、t of the isle a little hut of a house like a pigs hut, where fishers used to sleep when they came there upon their business: but the turf roof of it had fallen entirely in: so that the hut was of no use to me, and gave me less shelter than my rocks. What was more important, the shell-fish on which I

44、 lived grew there in great plenty: when the tide was out I could gather a peck at a time: and this was doubtless a convenience. But the other reason went deeper. I had become in no way used to the horrid solitude of the isle, but still looked round me on all sides(like a man that was hunted), betwee

45、n fear and hope that I might see some human creature coming. Now, from a little up the hillside over the bay, I could catch a sight of the great, ancient church and the roofs of the peoples houses in Iona. And on the other hand, over the low country of the Ross, I saw smoke go up, morning and evenin

46、g, as if from a homestead in a hollow of the land.I used to watch this smoke, when I was wet and cold, and had my head half turned with loneliness: and think of the fireside and the company, till my heart burned. It was the same with the roofs of Iona. Altogether, this sight I had of mens homes and

47、comfortable lives, although it put a point on my own sufferings, yet it kept hope alive, and helped me to eat my raw shell-fish(which had soon grown to be a disgust), and saved me from the sense of horror I had whenever I was quite alone with dead rocks, and fowls, and the rain, and the cold sea.I s

48、ay it kept hope alive: and indeed it seemed impossible that I should be left to die on the shores of my own country, and within view of a church-tower and the smoke of mens houses. But the second day passed: and though as long as the light lasted I kept a bright look-out for boats on the Sound or me

49、n passing on the Ross, no help came near me. It still rained, and I turned in to sleep, as wet as ever, and with a cruel sore throat, but a little comforted, perhaps, by having said good-night to my nest neighbours, the people of lona.17 Translate the following two passages from English to Chinese(电子科技大学 2007研，考试科目：英语写作与翻译)The Old Man and the Sea may very well become one of the true classics of this generation, Certainly, the qualities of Ernest Hemingways short novel are those which we associate with many great stories of the past: near perfection of form w
