In this essay, Greene regrets that people can no longer trust each other and have to resort to elaborate security systems to protect themselves and their possessions.许多年前,在美国,家家户户白天黑夜不锁门是司空见惯的。
在本文中,格林叹惜人们不再相互信任,不得不凭借精密的安全设备来保护自己和财产。
The Land of the LockBob Greene1 In the house where I grew up, it was our custom to leave the front door on the latch at night. I don't know if that was a local term or if it is universal; "on the latch" meant the door was closed but not locked. None of us carried keys; the last one in for the evening would close up, and that was it.锁之国鲍伯·格林小时候在家里,我们的前门总是夜不落锁。
我不知道这是当地的一种说法还是大家都这么说;"不落锁"的意思是掩上门,但不锁住。
我们谁都不带钥匙;晚上最后一个回家的人把门关上,这就行了。

unit 6 The Last LeafWhen Johnsy fell seriously ill, she seemed to lose the will to hang on to life. The doctor held out little hope for her. Her friends seemed helpless. Was there nothing to be done?约翰西病情严重,她似乎失去了活下去的意志。

朋友们看来也爱莫能助。
难道真的就无可奈何了吗?1 At the top of a three-story brick building, Sue and Johnsy had their studio. "Johnsy" was familiar for Joanna. One was from Maine; the other from California. They had met at a cafe on Eighth Street and found their tastes in art, chicory salad and bishop sleeves so much in tune that the joint studio resulted.在一幢三层砖楼的顶层,苏和约翰西辟了个画室。
“约翰西”是乔安娜的昵称。
她们一位来自缅因州,一位来自加利福尼亚。
两人相遇在第八大街的一个咖啡馆,发现各自在艺术品味、菊苣色拉,以及灯笼袖等方面趣味相投,于是就有了这个两人画室。
2 That was in May. In November a cold, unseen stranger, whom the doctors called Pneumonia, stalked about the district, touching one here and there with his icy fingers. Johnsy was among his victims. She lay, scarcely moving on her bed, looking through the small window at the blank side of the next brick house.那是5月里的事。

全新版大学英语综合教程3课文原文及翻译Unit 1 Friendship and Social MediaText A Cyberbullying: The Problem and SolutionsCyberbullying is the use of electronic communication to bully a person, typically by sending messages of an intimidating or threatening nature. With the rapid development of technology, cyberbullying has become a prevalent issue in today's society. It poses serious consequences for the victims and calls for immediate attention and effective solutions.In many cases, victims of cyberbullying experience emotional distress, depression, and low self-esteem. They may also face difficulties in maintaining healthy relationships, both on and offline. The constant harassment and humiliation can have severe psychological effects on the victims. Moreover, cyberbullying can even lead to tragic outcomes such as self-harm or suicide. It is evident that cyberbullying is a serious problem that needs to be addressed urgently.One of the main challenges in combating cyberbullying is the anonymity provided by the internet. Bullies can hide behind fake identities, making it difficult to identify and hold them accountable for their actions. This anonymity encourages the perpetrators to engage in bullying behavior without fear of consequences. Alongside this, the widespread use of social media platforms and instant messaging apps has made it easier for cyberbullying to occur. Messages can be spread quickly and reach a large number of people within seconds, leaving the victims feeling helpless.To tackle this issue, various measures can be adopted. Firstly, schools and educational institutions should implement comprehensive anti-cyberbullying policies. Students need to be educated about the harmful effects of cyberbullying and its consequences. They should also be taught how to respond to cyberbullying incidents and seek help from trusted adults. Creating a safe and supportive environment is vital in preventing cyberbullying.Secondly, parents and guardians play a crucial role in addressing cyberbullying. They should actively monitor their children's online activities and encourage open communication. Teaching children about responsible online behavior and the importance of empathy towards others can help prevent them from becoming bullies or victims themselves.Furthermore, social media platforms and internet service providers should take responsibility for preventing and responding to cyberbullying. Implementing stricter regulations and policies can help in detecting and addressing cyberbullying incidents promptly. Improved reporting mechanisms and efficient removal of offensive content are essential in safeguarding users' well-being online.In conclusion, cyberbullying is a serious problem that has emerged with the advancement of technology. It has detrimental effects on the victims and requires immediate action. Combating cyberbullying requires a collective effort from schools, parents, and online platforms. Only through comprehensive education, active monitoring, and stricter regulations can we create a safer online environment for everyone.文本 A 网络欺凌:问题和解决方案网络欺凌是指利用电子通信对一个人进行恐吓或威胁的行为。

3Living on a farm has taught me a lot about the importance of hard work and patience。
You can't rush nature。
and you can't expect to see results overnight。
It takes time and effort to plant。
tend。
and harvest a crop。
And sometimes。
despite your best efforts。
things don't turn out as planned.生活在农场中教会了我很多有关辛勤工作和耐心的重要性。
你不能匆忙对待自然,也不能期望一夜之间见到成果。
种植、培育和收获庄稼需要时间和精力。
有时,即使你尽力了,事情也不会按照计划进行。
4But the rewards are worth it。
There's nothing quite like the taste of a tomato you grew yourself or the n of knowing you provided for yourself and your family。
And the peace and quiet of the countryside is a e respite from the noise and chaos of the city.但是,这种努力是值得的。
没有什么能比你自己种植的番茄更美味,也没有什么比知道你为自己和家人提供了食物更令人满足的了。
而且,乡村的宁静和安宁是城市嘈杂混乱的一个受欢迎的休息场所。
5Of course。
living on a farm isn't for everyone。
It's hard work。
and there are challenges that come with it。
But for me and my wife。
it's the life we've always wanted。
And as long as we're able。
we'll continue to enjoy the simple pleasures and rewards of country living.当然,生活在农场中并不适合每个人。
这是一项艰苦的工作,并伴随着挑战。
但对于我和我的妻子来说,这是我们一直想要的生活。
只要我们能够,我们将继续享受乡村生活的简单乐趣和回报。
我们自己也会动手砍柴,足够我们使用三个季节。
这种生活方式让我们感到满足。
在夏天,我们会划着独木舟在河上嬉戏,到树林里野餐,或者骑自行车漫游大自然。
而在冬天,我们会滑雪或者溜冰。
我们会为落日的美景感到兴奋,喜欢闻到大地回暖的气息,听到牛群的哞叫声。
我们还会留意天空中的鹰儿和玉米田间的鹿群。

we'll be busy spraying the orchard。
paintingthe barn。
planting the garden。
and cleaning the XXX.In een all the household chores。
I manage to spend 50 to 60 hours a week at the XXX。
Sandy has her own XXX。
she oversees the garden and beehives。
bakes bread。
cans and freezes food。
drives the kids to their music lessons。
practices with them。
takes organ lessons on her own。
does research and typing for me。
writes an article herself now and then。
tends the flower beds。
stacks a little wood。
and delivers the eggs。
As the old saying goes。
there is no rest for the wicked on a place like this。
and not much for the virtuous either.春天到来时,带来了两次洪水。
首先是河水泛滥,覆盖了我们的大片土地数周之久。
然后是生长季节的开始,我们被一波又一波的农产品淹没。
我们的冰箱里装满了樱桃、覆盆子、草莓、芦笋、豌豆、豆类和玉米。
接着我们的罐头货架和橱柜开始填满果酱、番茄汁、葡萄汁、李子、果酱和果冻。
最终,地下室的地板被堆满了土豆、南瓜和南瓜,谷仓里也开始堆满了苹果和梨子。
这一切都是惊人的。
删除了最后一句话,因为它是重复的。
)8 Summer was a time of hard work。
We had to weed and water the garden。
pick the fruit。
and put up the harvest。
But we also had time for fun。
We swam in the river。
went fishing。
and had XXX to the city for a movie or a ballgame。
It was a good life.夏天是辛勤劳动的季节。
我们不得不除草浇水,采摘水果,收获农作物。
但我们也有时间玩乐。
我们在河里游泳,钓鱼,在树荫下野餐。
有时我们甚至开车去城里看电影或球赛。
这是美好的生活。
9 In the fall。
the leaves turned colors and the air grew crisp。
We harvested the rest of our crops and put them away for the winter。
We also gathered nuts and berries from the woods。
And we began to prepare for the cold months ahead。
We stacked wood。
repaired the roof。
and made sure the animals were ready for thesnow。
It was a time of hard work。
but it was also a time of beauty and peace.秋天,树叶变色,空气变得清新。
我们收获了剩下的庄稼,为冬天储存。
我们还从树林里采集坚果和浆果。
我们开始为即将到来的寒冷月份做准备。
我们堆积木材,修理屋顶,并确保动物已经为雪做好准备。
这是一个辛勤工作的时期,但也是一个美丽而平静的时期。
10 Winter came again。
but this time we were ready。
We had enough wood and food to last us through the snowstorms。
We spent our days reading。
playing games。
