For example, in Western cultures brides often choose a white wedding dress, while in China the traditional wedding dress is in red. Though white has become the most preferred color for wedding gowns across the world today, this was not a widespread trend before the Victorian era. White became a popular option in 1840, when Queen Victoria wore a white gown at her wedding. The official wedding photograph was widely published, and many brides chose white to become the followers of the Queen. Many people believed that the color white symbolized virginity, though this was not the original intention. As far as the style is concerned, wedding dresses were once typically short in the front with a longer train in the back. This tendency continued until the late 1960s, when it became popular to revert to long, full-skirted designs.婚紗禮服的顏色和款式可取決于婚禮參與者的宗教和文化。例如，在西方文化中新娘通常會(huì)選擇白色的婚紗，而在中國(guó)，傳統(tǒng)的結(jié)婚禮服是紅色的。雖然白色已成為當(dāng)今婚紗禮服在世界各地最受青睞的顏色，可是這在維多利亞時(shí)期之前并不是一個(gè)普遍的潮流。白色在1840年成為了一個(gè)受歡迎的選擇，那年維多利亞女王在她的婚禮上穿了一件白色的禮服。官方的婚禮照片被廣泛刊登后，很多新娘都仿效女王選擇白色。很多人相信白色象征著童貞，盡管這不是她們選擇白色的初衷。就款式而言，婚紗禮服曾一度是前面短短的、后面是長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的裙擺。這種趨勢(shì)一直持續(xù)到20世紀(jì)60年代后期，那個(gè)時(shí)期全長(zhǎng)裙邊的設(shè)計(jì)恢復(fù)了流行。 漢譯英中國(guó)是絲綢的故鄉(xiāng)，因而有很多與絲綢相關(guān)的藝術(shù)，刺繡（embroidery）就是其中的一種。刺繡是中國(guó)民間傳統(tǒng)手工藝之一，至少有兩、三千年的歷史。從事刺繡的多為女子，因此刺繡又被稱為"女紅"（womens needlework）。刺繡在中國(guó)受到了人們廣泛的喜愛(ài)。刺繡可用來(lái)裝飾衣物，如在衣服、被子、枕套（pillowcase）等物品上繡上美麗的圖案，也可制作成特別的飾品（ornament）。中國(guó)有四大名繡: 蘇州的蘇繡、廣東的粵繡、湖南的湘繡以及四川的蜀繡。各種繡法不僅風(fēng)格有差異，主題也各有不同。在這其中，蘇州的蘇繡最負(fù)盛名。China is home to silk, thereby having a variety of arts related to silk, one of which is embroidery. Embroidery, with at least two or three thousand years of history, is one of the Chinese traditional folk arts and crafts. Since most embroiderers are women, its also called "womens needlework". Embroidery has been much-loved by the Chinese people. It can be used to beautify clothing and things. For example, clothes, quilts, pillowcases etc. can be embroidered with beautiful designs, or a piece of embroidery can be made for a special ornament. There are four most famous types of embroidery in China: Suxiu from Suzhou, Yuexiu from Guangdong, Xiangxiu from Hunan, and Shuxiu from Sichuan, each having its own style and theme. Among the four, Suzhou embroidery has enjoyed the highest reputation.Unit 7 Section Bl Understanding the text1 D 2 C 3 A4 C5 D 6 A 7 B 8 Cl Language Focus Words in Use 1.Jim kicked the ball hard, and to his surprise it (bounced) uncontrollably around shelves, desks and over piles of books.2.Learning to (tolerate) a strangers habits may teach students flexibility and the art of compromise, but the learning process is often painful.3.In this area, women worked long hours, often by candlelight, to (supplement) the low income their men earned for the family.4.Rather than (condemn) them, he wrote a column for that newspaper to offer support, declaring that political reform was the very concern of the masses.5.When she heard the news, tears (overflowed) and ran back along her cheekbones to her ears, she turned away, pressing her right hand over her trembling lips.6.My friends, I (swear) by faith and conscience that what I would say is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.7.Almost any twin can tell you that while they (resemble) their brother or sister and share the same DNA, there are many differences between them.8.Poverty is (compounded) by inflation which has reached extreme levels in the region, as demonstrated by the consumer price indices (消費(fèi)者物價(jià)指數(shù)).9.As far as Im concerned, some of the tourists in this group are (disgusting) in what they do or say, but I dont think its up to me to say so.10.The fact that many developing countries must (trim) money from public education as part of their debt-reduction plans creates further pressure on families.l Language Focus Expressions in Use 1.I am worried that many students may (convert to) studying part time rather than full time, simply because they cannot afford to be full-time students.2.Dinah (was revolted by) what the politician said to the audience, so after the politician had gone he was feeling much relieved.3.Ive recently moved into a new apartment, which (was comprised of) two bedrooms, a dining-room, a sitting-room, a bathroom, and a kitchen.4.While she wrapped up some food in a cloth and gave it to the kids, her husband (busied himself with) preparing coffee for them.5.Carol (fussed over) her dress and hairstyle before she left for the evening party, but her husband couldnt bear any more and shouted, "Why are you always so nervous?"6.What the young senator advocated (is unique in) paying attention to unnoticed, but emotional components of social life which are often ignored by people.7.Youngsters get so absorbed in computer games that they dont realize how much theyre (exerting themselves) in this virtual world.8.In modern factories, various kinds of machines are (substituted for) not only unskilled workers but also skilled workers.
