Frightened, breathless and wet, the group settled on the stairs, which were protected by two interior walls.7. Dr. Robert H. Simpson, director of the National Hurricane Center in Miami, Fla., graded Hurricane Camille as "the greatest recorded storm ever to hit a populated area in the Western Hemisphere."8. Before dawn, the Mississippi National Guard and civil-defense units were moving in to handle traffic, guard property, set up communications centers, help clear the debris and t ake the homeless by truck and bus to refugee centers.9. From hundreds of towns and cities across the country came several million dollars in d onations; household and medical supplies streamed in by plane, train, truck and car.10. Camille, meanwhile, had raked its way northward across Mississippi, dropping more t han 28 inches of rain into West Virginia and southern Virginia, causing rampaging floods, huge mountain slides and 111 additional deaths before breaking up over the Atlantic Oc ean.11. The children appeared to suffer no psychological damage from their experience; they were still awed by the incomprehensible power of the hurricane, but enjoyed describing what they had seen and heard on that frightful night.Lesson Two Marrakech1. The little crowd of mourners--all men and boys, no women --threaded their way acros s the market-place between the piles of pomegranates and the taxis and the camels, wail ing a short chant over and over again.2. When you walk through a town like this — two hundred thousand inhabitants, of who m at least twenty thousand own literally nothing except the rags they stand up in — whe n you see how the people live, and still more how easily they die, it is always difficult to believe that you are walking among human beings.3. Sometimes, out for a walk, as you break your way through the prickly pear, you notice that it is rather bumpy underfoot, and only a certain regularity in the bumps tells you th at you are walking over skeletons.4. Many of the streets are a good deal less than six feet wide, the houses are completely windowless, and sore-eyed children cluster everywhere in unbelievable numbers, like clo uds of flies.5. Long lines of women, bent double like inverted capital Ls, work their way slowly across the fields, tearing up the prickly weeds with their hands, and the peasant gathering luce rne for fodder pulls it up stalk by stalk instead of reaping it, thus saving an inch or two o n each stalk.6. The peasants possess no harrows, they merely plough the soil several times over in dif ferent directions, finally leaving it in rough furrows, after which the whole field has to be shaped with hoes into small oblong patches, to conserve water.7. Then for the first time I noticed the poor old earth-coloured bodies, bodies reduced to bones and leathery skin, bent double under the crushing weight.8. Their splendid bodies were hidden in reach-me-down khaki uniforms, their feet squash ed into boots that looked like blocks of wood, and every tin hat seemed to be a couple of sizes too small.9. This wretched boy, who is a French citizen and has therefore been dragged from the f orest to scrub floors and catch syphilis in garrison towns, actually has feelings of reveren ce before a white skin.Lesson Three Pub Talk and the King' s English1. The charm of conversation is that it does not really start from anywhere, and no one h as any idea where it will go as it meanders or leaps and sparkles or just glows.2. Suddenly they see the moment for one of their best anecdotes, but in a flash the conv ersation has moved on and the opportunity is lost.3. The fact that their marriages may be on the rooks, or that their love affairs have been broken or even that they got out of bed on the wrong side is simply not a concern. (这是一个主语部分很长的句子。

自考00600《高级英语》背熟段落
高级英语文章中需要背诵的段落(上册)Lesson One在文单的头三段里,作者以相同的手法描写了三位摇滚歌星的表演盛况。
青少年把他们视为偶像,赞美不绝,而成年观众则觉得他们恶心,难以心爱,这反映了青少年和成人社会对摇滚乐截然不同的态度。
In the first three paragraphs, the author describes the wonderful performance of three rock superstars by the same means. Teenagers see them as icons, praising them endlessly, while adult viewers reject them as sick, which shows the different attitudes towards rock music by teenagers and adults.背诵How do you feel about all this adulation and hero worship? When Mick Jagger’s fans look at him as a high priest or a god, are you with them or against them? Do you share Chris Singer’s almost religious reverence for Bob Dylan? Do you think he – or Dylan – is misguided? Do you reject Alice Cooper as sick? Or are you drawn somehow to this strange clown, perhaps because he asts out your wildest fantasies? Lesson Two正如本课中所说的,他们当中有些人脱离传统的社会活动,拒绝承担任何社会责任,过着颓废的寄生生活;有些人逃离城市,跑到偏僻的乡间过着原始公社式的生活;有些人则试图以暴力手段改变社会状况,遭到了残酷的镇压。

Lesson 15: The Beauty Industry美容用品业The one American industry unaffected by the general depression of trade is the beamy industry.美国工业中惟一未受贸易大萧条影响的是美容用品业。
American women continue to spend on their faces and bodies as much as they spent before the coming of the slump經濟蕭條前—about three million pounds a week.美国妇女仍不断在她们的脸上和身体上花费与经济萧条到来之前同样多的钱——每周约300万英镑。
These facts and figures are "official", and can he accepted as being substantially 充分true.这些事实与数字都是官方的,可大致属实。
Reading them. I was only surprised by the comparative 相對較小smallness of the sums expended.当读到这时,我只为花费的数目相对较小而感到惊奇。
From the prodigious巨大number of advertisements of aids to beauty contained in the American magazines,从美国杂志上铺天盖地的化妆品广告来看,I had imagined that the personal appearance business must stand high up among the champions of American industry—the equal, or only just less than the equal, of bootlegging販賣私酒and racketeering,敲詐勒索movies and automobiles.从美国杂志上铺天盖地的化妆品广告来看,我原以为美容用品业一定居美国工业群雄之首,与贩卖私酒和敲诈勒索,电影和汽车业并驾齐驱或稍逊一筹。

questions about the naughty,jazzy parties, the flask-toting‖ sheik‖, and the moral andstylistic vagaries of the ―flapper‖ andthe ―drug-store cowboy‖.—transferred epithet2 Second, in the United States it was reluctantly realized by some—subconsciously if notopenly—that our country was no longer isolated in either politics or tradition and that we hadreached an international stature that would forever prevent us from retreating behind theartificial walls of a provincial morality or the geographical protection of our two borderingoceans.—metaphor3 War or no war, as the generations passed, it became increasingly difficult for our youngpeople to accept standards of behavior that bore no relationship to the bustling businessmedium in which they were expected to battle for success.—metaphor4 The war acted merely as a catalytic agent in this breakdown of the Victorian social structure,and by precipitationg our young people into a pattern of mass murder it released theirinhibited violent energies which, after theshooting was over, were turned in both Europe andAmerica to the destruction of an obsolescent nineteenth century society.—metaphor5 The prolonged stalemate of 1915-1916,the increasing insolence of Germany toward theUnited States, and our official reluctance to declare our status as a belligerent were intolerableto many of our idealistic citizens, and with typical American adventurousness enhancedsomewhat by the strenuous jingoism of Theodore Roosevelt, our young men began to enlistunder foreign flags.—metonymy6 Their energies had been whipped up and their naïveté destroyed by the war and now, in sleepyGopher Prairies all over the country, they were being asked to curb those energies and resumethe pose of self-deceiving Victorian innocence that they now felt to be as outmoded as thenotion that their fighting had ―made the world safe for democracy‖.—metaphor7 After the war, it was only natural that hopeful young writers, their minds and pens inflamedagainst war, Babbittry, and ―Puritanical‖ gentility, should flock to the traditional artisticcenter(where living was still cheap in 1919)to pour out their new-found creative strength, totear down the old world, to flout ht morality of their grandfathers, and to give all to art, love,and sensation.—metonymy synecdoche8 Younger brothers and sisters of the war generation, who had been playing with marbles anddolls during the battles of Belleau Wood and Chateau-Thierry, and who had suffered no realdisillusionment or sense of loss, now began to imitate the manners of their elders and playwith the toys of vulgar rebellion.—metaphor9 These defects would disappear if only creative art were allowed to show the way to betterthings, but since the country was blind and deaf to everything save the glint and ring of thedollar, there was little remedy for the sensitive mind but to emigrate to Europe where ―they dothings better.‖—personification, metonymy ,synecdocheLesson111 This is because there are fewer fanatical believers among the English, and at the same time,below the noisy arguments, the abuse and the quarrels, there is a reservoir of instinctivefellow-feeling, not yet exhausted though it may not be filling up.—metaphor2 But there are not may of these men, either on the board or the shop floor, and they arecertainly not typical English.—metaphor3 Some cancer in their character has eaten away their Englishness.—metaphor4 A further necessary demand, to feed the monster with higher and higher figures and larger andlarger profits, is for enormous advertising campaigns and brigades of razor-keensalesmen.—metaphor5 It is a battle that is being fought in the minds of the English.

Iam told that the death penalty is not only inhuman but also unscientific, for rapists andmurderers are really sick people who should be cured, not killed.
