Text A
The Freshman Experience: College Is Not Summer Camp
Language and Cultural Points in the Text
Para. 1 The first week of college is summer camp. The second is back to reality.
The first week of college is like summer camp (which is usually full of excitement and fun), but in the second week, we have to go back to our real life at college.
I never imagined going from name games to essays in a blink.
I hadn?t thought I would change from playing games to studying hard so fast. Here name games simply mean playing instead of studying
Note: The Name Game (also known as the Adjective Game) starts with one person in the room picking a word that describes himself or herself as a person. The catch is that the word must start with the first letter of their first name.
imagine
to form a picture in your mind of what something might be e.g. She imagined singing her favorite song on a big stage.
她想象着自己在一个巨大的舞台上唱自己最喜欢的歌曲。 Close your eyes and imagine (that) you are in a forest. 闭上眼睛,想象自己在森林里。
blink
n. (usually singular) the act of shutting and opening your eyes very quickly e.g. He finished all his food in the blink of an eye. 一眨眼功夫他把食物全吃光了。
She does not comprehend the meaning of my blink. 她没有领会我眨眼的意思。
Para. 2 orientation
training or information that you are given before starting a new job, course, etc. e.g. This is orientation week for all the new students. 这是让全体新生熟悉情况的迎新周。 New employees receive three days’ orientation. 新雇员接受三天的入职培训。
……it never really felt like school until I walked into Geology on Tuesday morning.
It was not like school until I walked into the Geology class on Tuesday morning. Here “felt” is a link verb, different from when it is used in “feel like doing sth.”
imaginable
. used with superlatives, and with “all” and “every”, to emphasize that something is the best, worst, etc. that you can imagine, or includes every possible example
e.g. This is the only solution imaginable. 这是唯一可想得到的解决办法。
Posters were put up on every imaginable surface. 每一处能想到的空白都张贴着海报。
Para. 3 Buying textbooks before the class was its own problem It?s hard to get cheap second-hand textbooks for this course.
Note: College students in some countries have to buy textbooks, often second-handed ones, on their own. For many courses, there are simply no textbooks, but reference books, and students do not always have the option to purchase these items.
dirt cheap
(informal) extremely cheap, as cheap as dirt
e.g. The shop owner let us have the stuff dirt cheap. (used as adverb) 店主很便宜地卖给我们这些东西。
She bought the fashionable dress at a dirt-cheap price. (used as adjective) 这件时装她买得很便宜。
…but being in a room filled with strangers, most not na?ve first years like me, was quite frightening.
I felt frightened, because the classroom was full of students whom I did not know, and most of them were not silly freshmen like me. Here first years refer to first year students, or freshmen.
Note: In the western universities where the credit system (学分制) is in practice, it is not uncommon to find students of different majors or ages sitting in the same classroom for the course they choose.
Para. 4 catch up on
to find out about things that have happened e.g. Let me catch you up on all the gossip. 我跟你透露一点最近的闲话。
I’m afraid I can’t catch up on how things are in that region. 恐怕我无法跟进那一地区的情况。
Note: In informal conversations, “Let?s catch up.(改天见面聊一聊)” is a very
