根据我国高等教育发展的新形势，为了深化教学改革，提高教学质量，满足新时期国家和社会对人才培养的需要，教育部2007年7月颁布了《大学英语课程教学要求》，作为高等学校组织非英语专业本科生英语教学的主要依据。《课程要求》进一步明确了大学英语的教学性质：“大学英语是以外语教学理论为指导，以英语语言知识与应用技能、跨文化交际和学习策略为主要内容，并集多种教学模式和教学手段为一体的教学体系”，同时也明确了大学英语的教学目标是“培养学生英语综合应用能力，特别是听说能力，使他们在今后学习、工作和社会交往中能够用英语有效地进行交际，同时增强其自主学习能力，提高综合文化素养，以适应我国社会发展和国际交流的需要。”随着这一政策的颁布，国家对新时期大学英语的教学提出了新的要求和目标，同时，对大学英语四六级的考试题型和模式也在不断探索和创新，这样一来，市场上大多数出版多年的教材已无法适应这种新的要求。我们经济科学出版社本着科学严谨的态度和“与时俱进、勇于创新”的精神，历时近三年，编写了这套新理念、功能型的大学英语立体化教材——《新编大学英语综合教程》。 本套教材在设计、编写和制作上严格贯彻《大学英语课程教学要求》和《大学英语四／六级考试大纲》中对大学英语教学性质、教学目标、教学模式、教学评估、教学管理及大学英语参考词汇表等各方面所做的界定和描述，并在此基础上，结合外语教学理论与实际教学需要，进行教学理念和教学模式的探索与创新，开拓大学英语教学的新形式。

For most people, adolescence is a difficult time of life filled with pressure from peers, par-ents,, and school. For gay, lesbian, and bisexual teens, however, the stress of this period multi-plies, especially for those living in societies which refuse to accept them. Statistics on gay youth illustrate some of the pain and isolation they face. Because many are rejected or disowned by their families, gay and lesbian teens make up 42 percent of the homeless youth in America. They also attempt suicide at a rate two to three times higher than that of their heterosexual counterparts, and are at greater risk for drug and alcohol abuse. Beyond an often hostile home environment, gay youth also lack allies and avenues for support at school. One study indicates that 97 percent of non-heterosexual youth reported hearing homo-phonic taunts at school, while roughly 22 percent said they had been threatened with physical vio-lence because of their sexual orientation. Attitudes may change, however, as schools are beginning to recognize such prejudice as a health and safety issue. Schools are searching for ways to ameliorate the situation, including set-ring up gay-straight alliance clubs and cracking down on harassment. At the same time, many nonprofit groups are reaching out to provide services to gay and lesbian teens, The support that such youth need most, however, is that of their families and friends.
