大學(xué)英語(yǔ)教程（第二冊(cè)）

前言

　　21世紀(jì)，科學(xué)技術(shù)發(fā)展日新月異，發(fā)明創(chuàng)造層出不窮，知識(shí)更新日趨頻繁，全民學(xué)習(xí)、終身學(xué)習(xí)已經(jīng)成為適應(yīng)經(jīng)濟(jì)與社會(huì)發(fā)展的基本途徑。近年來(lái)，我國(guó)高等教育取得了跨越式的發(fā)展，毛入學(xué)率由1998年的8％迅速增長(zhǎng)到2008年的23.3％，已經(jīng)進(jìn)入到大眾化的發(fā)展階段，這其中高等繼續(xù)教育發(fā)揮了重要的作用。同時(shí)，高等繼續(xù)教育作為“傳統(tǒng)學(xué)校教育向終身教育發(fā)展的一種新型教育制度”，對(duì)實(shí)現(xiàn)“形成全民學(xué)習(xí)、終身學(xué)習(xí)的學(xué)習(xí)型社會(huì)”、“構(gòu)建終身教育體系”的宏偉目標(biāo)，發(fā)揮著其他教育形式不可替代的作用?！　∧壳?，我國(guó)高等繼續(xù)教育的發(fā)展規(guī)模已占全國(guó)高等教育的一半左右，隨著我國(guó)產(chǎn)業(yè)結(jié)構(gòu)的調(diào)整、傳統(tǒng)產(chǎn)業(yè)部門(mén)的改造以及新興產(chǎn)業(yè)部門(mén)的建立，各種崗位上數(shù)以千萬(wàn)計(jì)的勞動(dòng)者，需要通過(guò)邊工作邊學(xué)習(xí)來(lái)調(diào)整自己的知識(shí)結(jié)構(gòu)、提高自己的知識(shí)水平，以適應(yīng)現(xiàn)代經(jīng)濟(jì)與社會(huì)發(fā)展的要求?？梢?jiàn)，我國(guó)高等繼續(xù)教育的發(fā)展，既肩負(fù)著重大的歷史使命，又面臨著難得的發(fā)展機(jī)遇?！　∥覈?guó)的高等繼續(xù)教育要抓住機(jī)遇發(fā)展，完成自己的歷史使命，從根本上說(shuō)就是要全面提高教育教學(xué)質(zhì)量，這涉及多方面的工作，但抓好教材建設(shè)是提高教學(xué)質(zhì)量的基礎(chǔ)和中心環(huán)節(jié)。眾所周知，高等繼續(xù)教育的培養(yǎng)對(duì)象主要是已經(jīng)走上各種生產(chǎn)或工作崗位的從業(yè)人員，這就決定了高等繼續(xù)教育的目標(biāo)是培養(yǎng)能適應(yīng)新世紀(jì)社會(huì)發(fā)展要求的動(dòng)手能力強(qiáng)、具有創(chuàng)新能力的應(yīng)用型人才。因此，高等繼續(xù)教育教材的編寫(xiě)“要本著學(xué)用結(jié)合的原則，重視從業(yè)人員的知識(shí)更新，提高廣大從業(yè)人員的思想文化素質(zhì)和職業(yè)技能”，體現(xiàn)出高等繼續(xù)教育的針對(duì)性、實(shí)用性和職業(yè)性特色?！　檫m應(yīng)我國(guó)高等繼續(xù)教育發(fā)展的新形勢(shì)、培養(yǎng)應(yīng)用型人才、滿(mǎn)足廣大學(xué)員的學(xué)習(xí)需要，中國(guó)人民大學(xué)出版社邀請(qǐng)了國(guó)內(nèi)知名專(zhuān)家學(xué)者對(duì)我國(guó)高等繼續(xù)教育的教學(xué)改革與教材建設(shè)進(jìn)行專(zhuān)題研討，成立了教材編審委員會(huì)，聯(lián)合中國(guó)人民大學(xué)、中國(guó)政法大學(xué)、東北財(cái)經(jīng)大學(xué)、武漢大學(xué)、山西財(cái)經(jīng)大學(xué)、東北師范大學(xué)、江西師范大學(xué)、南昌航空大學(xué)、華中科技大學(xué)、黑龍江大學(xué)等30多所高校，共同編撰了“21世紀(jì)高等繼續(xù)教育精品教材”，計(jì)劃在兩三年內(nèi)陸續(xù)推出百種高等繼續(xù)教育精品系列教材。教材編審委員會(huì)對(duì)該系列教材的作者進(jìn)行了嚴(yán)格的遴選，編寫(xiě)教材的專(zhuān)家、教授都有著豐富的繼續(xù)教育教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)和較高的專(zhuān)業(yè)學(xué)術(shù)水平。

內(nèi)容概要

為了更好地體現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代高等教育英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的特點(diǎn)和要求，真正做到以學(xué)生為主體、適應(yīng)課堂教學(xué)和自主學(xué)習(xí)相結(jié)合的特點(diǎn)，本套教材在以下方面下了一些功夫：    （1）緊密結(jié)合教學(xué)大綱的要求和課堂教學(xué)實(shí)際。編寫(xiě)隊(duì)伍全部都是來(lái)自教學(xué)第一線的教學(xué)骨干，充分地把各位編者的教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)融入到教材中，特別是在選編課文時(shí)，注重選編短小精悍的短文，讓師生在一個(gè)教學(xué)單位時(shí)間內(nèi)能夠完成一個(gè)相對(duì)完整的內(nèi)容。    （2）選材新穎。無(wú)論是交際技能，還是課文學(xué)習(xí)，抑或是寫(xiě)作訓(xùn)練，從形式到內(nèi)容，編者都注重選擇最新的語(yǔ)料，并努力使英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)寓于趣味性、娛樂(lè)性之中，以使得課堂教學(xué)和課后自學(xué)都不會(huì)枯燥乏味。    （3）注重基礎(chǔ)訓(xùn)練。各冊(cè)內(nèi)容特別注重基本知識(shí)和基本技能的訓(xùn)練，設(shè)計(jì)了數(shù)量可觀的練習(xí)；同時(shí)，考慮到部分學(xué)生入學(xué)時(shí)需要加強(qiáng)英語(yǔ)基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)的學(xué)習(xí)，本套教材特別編寫(xiě)了《預(yù)備教程》，以供有需要的班級(jí)和學(xué)生在語(yǔ)音和基礎(chǔ)語(yǔ)法方面加強(qiáng)復(fù)習(xí)和練習(xí)。    （4）編排形式科學(xué)。本套教材的主體部分按照交際技能、課文學(xué)習(xí)、綜合練習(xí)和寫(xiě)作訓(xùn)練進(jìn)行編排，努力做到在聽(tīng)、說(shuō)、讀、寫(xiě)、譯五個(gè)方面提高學(xué)習(xí)者的英語(yǔ)水平。    （5）強(qiáng)調(diào)自主學(xué)習(xí)的特點(diǎn)?，F(xiàn)代教育強(qiáng)調(diào)“教師為主導(dǎo)、學(xué)生為主體、學(xué)生自主學(xué)習(xí)”的理念；同時(shí)，高中畢業(yè)后進(jìn)入高等院校繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)的學(xué)生對(duì)母語(yǔ)已經(jīng)掌握得比較好了，而有些學(xué)生英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)感相對(duì)較差。為此，我們特別編寫(xiě)了《基礎(chǔ)英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法》，以使英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者更好地利用母語(yǔ)優(yōu)勢(shì)。    （6）結(jié)合現(xiàn)代教育技術(shù)和利用輔助教學(xué)手段。與紙質(zhì)教材配套，我們充分利用了現(xiàn)代計(jì)算機(jī)和多媒體技術(shù)制作了供學(xué)生使用的多媒體課件和供教師使用的課堂教學(xué)課件，以使得課堂教學(xué)和課后自學(xué)都更加直觀和有趣。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　Chinas economy， promoted by huge exports to America and Europe， led the developing world in 2004 with a growth rate forecast to end the year at 8.8%. "Our national economy achieved stable development...and peoples livelihoods got further improvements，" Chinese President Hu Jintao said. In the coming year， he said China would "continue to carry on reforms and openness， and promote fast and stable economic development."　　Hu promised more trade with Hong Kong and Macau， former European colonies that returned to Chinese rule in the late 1990s. He said Beijing would "support the work of the administrative leaders" in the former colonies， as well as promote economic ties between those territories and the mainland "to maintain peaceful and stable prosperity".　　While characterizing China as peaceful and stable， Hu said the world is "undergoing very deep changes". On the one hand， economic globalization and progress toward a "multipolar" world create opportunities， he said.　　Business Week　　Everybody knows that China is the worlds next economic superpower. Each year， it gets billions and billions of dollars in foreign investment， powering its booming economy. The Middle Kingdom has more cell-phone users than anywhere else on the planet， and soon it will be tops among Net surfers， too. American consumers cant get enough of the low-cost TVs， DVD players， mobile phones， computers， and other home appliances that come out of Chinas factories.　　USA Today　　Now， Chinas eventual dominance of global clothing and textiles trade is regarded as inevitable. In January 2002， the U.S. began lifting quotas on a limited number of textile products. Chinas market share in those items —— such as infant wear and socks —— soared from a combined 9% to 65%. Since then， Chinese producers have become more competitive.
