阿真舍湾赫尔曼沃克一、阿真舍湾一片灰色的宁静笼罩着蛮荒环布的纽芬兰阿真舍湾那些美国军舰就停泊在这里静候着温斯顿丘吉尔的到来。

轻烟薄雾将一切都染成了灰色灰色的海水灰色的天空灰色的空气还有那略带着一点绿意的灰色的山丘。

在尖厉的哨声和扩音喇叭声中那些军舰上的水兵和军官们如往常一样在执行着各自的军务。

在军舰上那些日常的喧闹声所及的范围之外便是那笼罩着阿真舍湾的一片原始蛮荒的静寂。

九点钟三艘灰色的驱逐舰驶入了视线后面跟着出现一艘涂着蛇皮般迷彩伪装色的战列舰那便是英国皇家海军的“威尔士亲王号”也是在场的最大军舰舰上装备着的大炮曾经击中德舰“俾斯麦号”。

当它驶过“奥古斯特号”时甲板上的军乐队打破寂静奏响了美国国歌《星条旗》。

此曲一终“奥古斯特号的后甲板上的军乐队接着奏起了英国国歌《上帝保佑吾王》。

在一号炮塔上临时支起的帆布凉篷下面帕格亨利同海陆军将领们以及艾弗里尔哈里曼和萨姆纳韦尔斯等显要文职官员们一起站在总统的身边。

他们可以清楚地看到距离不到五百码远的丘吉尔他穿着一身式样古怪的蓝色衣服手中挥动着一根大亨茄。

身材比所有的人都高大得多的总统则穿着一套正正规规的大号棕色西装撑在装着支架的病腿上僵直地站着一只手拿着礼帽故于胸前另一只手抓着儿子的胳膊。

他的儿子是海军航空队的一位军官面貌同他极为相像。

罗斯福那粉红色的大脸上有意识地露m一副庄重严肃的表情。

《上帝保佑吾王》演奏既毕总统的表情轻松起来。

“唷我还从来没有听到过演奏得比这更好的《我的祖国这是您》。

”周围的人对总统的这句玩笑报以礼貌的微笑罗斯福本人也笑了起来随着水手长吹出的一声尖厉的哨音巡洋舰甲板上的这场检阅活动结束了。

二、哈利霍普金斯海军上将金招呼帕格。

“坐我的快艇到…威尔士亲王号‟上去给哈利霍普金斯先生送个信。

总统希望在丘吉尔来访之前同他先谈谈因此请赶快去办。

” “是长官。

” 维克多亨利坐着金的快艇驶过几百码平静的水面从“奥古斯特号”来到“威尔士亲王号”。

他实际上是从美国来到了英国从和平跨进了战争。

paigns celebrating the Big Apple, those T-shirts with a heart design proclaiming “I love New York,”are signs, pathetic in their desperation, of how the m ighty has fallen. New York City used to leave the bragging to others, for bragg ing w as “bush” Being unique, the biggest and the best, New York didn’t have to assert how special it was.’t the top anym ore, at least if the top is m easured by who begets the styles and sets the trends. Nowadays New York is out of phase with American taste as often as it is out of step with Am erican politics. Once it was the nation’s undisputed fashion authority, but it too long resisted the incom ing casual style and lost its m onopoly. No longer so looked up to or copied, New York even prides itself on being a holdout from prevailing Am erican trends, a place to escape Comm on Denom inator Land.ore and m ore evident. A dozen other cities have buildings m ore inspired architecturally than any built in New York City in the past twenty years. The giant Manhattan television studios where Toscanini’s NBCSym phony once played now sit empty m ost of the time, while sitcoms cloned and canned in Hollywood, and the Johnny Carson show live, preem pt the airways from California. Tin Pan Alley has m oved to Nashville and Hollywood. Vegas casinos routinely pay heavy sum s to singers and entertainers whom no nightspot in Manhattan can afford to hire. In sports, the bigger superdom es, the m ore exciting teams, them ost enthusiastic fans, are often found elsewhere.–being regarded as unfriendly, unsafe, overcrowded, and expensive –but it is m aking som ething of a com eback as a tourist attraction. Even so, m ost Americans would probably rate New Orleans, San Francisco, Washington, or Disneyland higher. A dozen other cities, including m yhom etown of Seattle, are widely considered better cities to live in.any Europeans call New York their favorite city? They take m ore readily than do m ost Americans to its cosm opolitan com plexities, its surviving, aloof, European standards, its alien mixtures. Perhaps som e of these Europeans are reassured by the sight, on the twin fashion avenues of Madison and Fifth, of all those familiar international nam es – the jewelers, shoe stores, and designer shops that exist to flatter and bilk the frivolous rich. But no; what m ost excites Europeans is the city’s charged, nervous atm osphere, its vulgar dynam ism .share of articulate losers, it is also about m ockery, the put-down , the loser’s shrug (“whaddya gonna do?”). It is about constant battles for subway seats, for a cabdriver’s or a clerk’s or a waiter’s attention, for a foothold , a chance, a better address, a larger billing. To win in New York is to be uneasy; to lose is to live in jostling proxim ity to the frustrated majority.e. And though I have lived there m ore than half m y life, you won’t find m e wearing an “I Love New York”T-shirt. But all in all, I can’t think of m any places in the world I’d rather live. It’s not easy to define why.’s pleasures are m uch qualified in New York. You never see a star-filledsky; the city’s bright glow arrogantly obscures the heavens. Sunsets can be spectacular: oranges and reds tinting the sky over the Jersey m eadows and gaudily reflected in a thousand windows on Manha ttan’s jagged skyline. Nature constantly yields to m an in New York: witness those fragile sidewalk trees gamely struggling against encroaching cem ent and petrol fum es. Central Park, which Frederick Law Olm sted designed as lungs for the city’s poor, i s in places grassless and filled with trash, no longer pristine yet lively with the noise and vivacity of people, largely youths, blacks, and Puerto Ricans, enjoying them selves. On park benches sit older people,m ostly white, looking displaced. It has becom e less a tranquil park than an untidy carnival.our of the city, which never beckoned to m e from a distance, but itsopportunity –to practice the kind of journalism I wanted –drew me to New York. I wasn’t even sure how I’d m easure up against others who had been m ore soundly educated at Ivy League schools, or whether I could com pete against that tough local breed, those intellectual sons of immigrants, so highly m otivated and single-minded, such as Alfred Kazin, who for div ersion (for heaven’t sake!) played Bach’s Unaccompanied Partitas on the violin.ost banal and m arketable of one’s talents, still draws m any of the young to New York. That and, as always, the com pany of others fleeing som ething constricting where they cam e from. Together these young share a freedom, a community of inexpensive am usements, a casualliving, and som e rough tim es. It can’t be the living conditions that appeal, for only fond mem ory will forgive the inconvenience, risk, and squalor. Comm ercial Broadway m ay be inaccessible to them, but there is off- Broadway, and then off-off-Broadway. If painters disdain Madison Avenue’s plush art galleries, Madison Avenue dealers set up shop in the grubby precincts of Soho. But the purity of a bohem ian dedication can be exaggerated. The artistic young inhabit the sam e Greenwich Village and its fringes in which the experim entalists in the arts lived during the Depression, united by a world against them. But the present generation is enough of a subculture to be a source of profitable boutiques and coffeehouses. And it is not all that estranged.ost respects from mainland America, but in two areas it remains dominant. It is the banking and the comm unications headquarters for America. In both these roles it ratifies m ore than it creates. Wall Street will advance the m illions to m ake a Hollywood m ovie only if convinced that a bestselling title o r a star name will ensure its success. The networks’ news centers are here, and the largest book publishers, and the biggest m agazines – and therefore the largest body of critics to appraise the films, the plays, the m usic, the books that others have created. New York is a judging town, and often invokes standards that the rest of the country deplores or ignores. A m arket for knowingness exists in New York that doesn’t exist for knowledge.arkets and devising the catchy jingles that will m ove m illions from McDonald’s to Burger king, so that the adagency’s “creative director”can lunch instead in Manhattan’s expense-account French restaurants. The bankers and the admen. The m arketing specialists and a thousand well-paid ancillary service people, really set the city’s brittle tone— catering to a wide American public whose num bers m ust be respected but whose tastes do not have to shared. The condescending view from the fiftieth floor of the city’s crowds below cuts these people off from humanity. So does an attitude which sees the public only in terms of large, malleable numbers— as impersonally as does the clattering subway turnstile beneath the office towers.surprised by the lack of cynicism, particularly am ong the younger ones, of those who work in such fields. The television generation grew up in the insistent presence of hype, delights in much of it, and has no scruples about practicing it. Men and wom an do their jobs professionally, and, like the pilots who from great heights bom bed Hanoi, seem unmarked by it. They lead their real lives elsewhere, in the Village bars they are indistinguishable in dress or behavior from would-be artists, actors, and writers. The boundaries of “art for art’s sake” aren’t so rigid anym ore; art itself is less sharply defined, and those whose paintings don’t sell do illustrations; those who can’ get acting jobs do comm ercials; those who are writing ambitious novels sustain themselves on the m agazines. Besides, serious art often feeds in the popular these days, changing it with fond irony.e the newcom ers find or from their won worlds; Manhatten is m any such words, huddled together but rarely interaction. I think this is what gives the city itssense of freedom. There are enough like you, whatever you are. And it isn’t asnecessary to know anything about an apartm ent neighbor- or to worry about his judgm ent of you- as it is about som eone with an adjoining yard. In New York, like seeks like, and by econom y of effort excludes the rest as stranger. This distancing, this uncaring in ordinary encounters, has another side: in no other Am erican city can the lonely be as lonely.uch m ore needs to be said. New Your is a wounded city, declining in its am enities . Overloaded by its tax burdens. But it is not dying city; the streets are safer than they were five years age; Broadway, which seem ed to be succumbing to the tawdriness of its environm ent, is astir again.enace, the noise, the brusqueness- all confirm outsiders in their conviction that they wouldn’t live here if you gave them the place. Yet show a New Yorker a splendid hom e in Dallas, or a swimming pool and cabana in Beverly Hills, and he will be admiring but not envious. So m uch of well-to-do America now lives antiseptically in enclaves, tranquil and luxurious, that shut out the world. Too static, the New Yorker would say. Tell him about the vigor of your outdoor pleasures; he prefers the unhealthy hassle andthe vitality of urban life. He is hopelessly provincial. To him New York- despite its faults,which her will impat iently concede (“so what else is new?”) — is the spoiler of all other American cities.erican cities to visit first-rate art m useum s, to hear good m usic and see lively experim ental theater, to m eet intelligent and sophisticated people who know how to live, dine, and talk well; and to enjoy all this in congenial and spacious surroundings. The New Yorkers still wouldn’t want to live there.issing is what m any outsiders find oppressive and distasteful about New York –its rawness, tension, urgency; its bracingcom petitiveness; the rigor of its judgm ents; and the congested, dem ocratic presence of so m any other New Yorkers, encased in their own worlds, the defeated are not hidden away som ewhere else on the wrong side of town. In the subways, in the buses, in the streets, it is impossible to avoid people whose lives are harder than yours. With the desperate, the ill, the fatigued, the overwhelm ed, one learns not to strike upcon versation (which isn’t wanted ) but to m ake brief, sy m pathetic eye contact, to include them in the hum an race. It isn’t m uch, but it is the fleeting hospitality of New Yorkers, each jealous of his privacy in the crowd. Ever helpfulness is often delivered as a taunt: a m an, rushing the traffic light, shouts the m an behind him. “ You want to be wearing a Buick with Jersey plates?” — great scorn in the word Jersey, hom e of drivers who don’t belong here.’s definition, New York is m ongrel city. It is in fact the first truly international m etropolis. No other great city- not London, Paris, Rom e or Tokyo- plays host (or hostage) to so m any nationalities. The m ix is m uch wider- Asians, Africans, Latins - that when that tumultuous variety of European crowded ashore at Ellis Island.The newcom ers are never fully absorbed, but are added precariously to the undigested many.20 New York is too big to be dom inated by any group, by Wasps or Jews or blacks, or by Catholics of m any origins —Irish, Italian, Hispanic. All have their little sovereignties, all are sizable enough to be reckoned with and tough in asserting their claim s, but none is powerful enough to subdue the others. Characteristically, the city swallows up the United Nations and refuses to take it seriously, regarding it as an unworkable m ixture of the idealistic, the impractical, and the hypocritical. But New Yorkers them selves are in training in how to live together in a diversity of races- the necessary initiation into the future.education in sights and sm ells. There is wonderful variety of places to eat or shop, and though the m ost successful of such places are likely to touristy hybridcom prom ises, they too have genuine roots. Other Am erican cities have ethnic turfs jealously defended, but not, I think, such an adm ixture of groups, thrown together in such jarring juxtapositions . In the sam e way, avenues of high-rise luxury in New York are never far from poverty and m ean streets. The sadness and fortitude of New York must be celebrated, along with its treasures of art and m usic.

高英2部分最后一题答案

高英2部分最后一题答案

第十四课mister speaker, on Friday evening last I received His Majesty’s commission to form a new Administration.1main idea of each paragraph Paragraph1 mainly tells of his approach in forming the War Cabinet and how much of his job he has completed. In para.2, Churchill asks the House for a vote of confidence. Para.3 mainly includes Churchill’s most famous remark:” I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.” In para.4, Churchill declares the policy and the aim of the new Government and appeals for unity and strike with united strength.2 which one is the highlight of this speech?The last paragraph is the highlight of the speech, which lays out the policy and the aim: the policy is to wage war and the aim is victory.3what rhetorical devices does Churchill employ to give strength to his speech? As this is a speech to the House, formal, parliamentary language is used by Churchill. For example,” I now invite the House, by the Resolution which stands in my name, to record its approval of the steps taken and to declare its confidence in the new Government.” In order to give strength to his speech, repetition is employed as the rhetorical device. Besides, short and long sentences are also interwoven to achieve effect.第二课:life on the farm is an eternal battle against nature. There is always the…1topic sentence: life on the farm is an eternal battle against nature.2how does the writer develop the main idea? The writer of this paragraph does not develop the main idea properly.3has the writer succeeded in achieving unity?No, the writer has failed to achieve unity. He/she has forgotten about what he/she had started out to say. Instead of being an "eternal battle against nature", life on the farm becomes a pleasant and exciting experience in his/her description, which deviates from the main theme.第六课:it was amusing to look round the filthy little scullery and think that only a double door was…1 central idea of the paragraph:George Orwell has mainly described “the filthy little scullery”in this paragraph.2how does the paragraph begin? The paragraph begins with a comparison between the little scullery and the splendid dining-room just a few feet away.3what method is used in developing the central idea? He develops the main idea of his paragraph by a lot of descriptive details (“we slithered about in a compound of soapy water, lettuce-leave, torn paper and trampled food”; “a dozen waiters with their coats off, showing their sweaty armpits, sat at the table mixing salads and sticking their thumbs into the cream pots” “The room had a dirty, mixed smell of food and sweat”; etc.) The writer also uses concrete words to make the description vivid.第九课:we heard the plane come over at noon, roaring through the radio news…1where did the story take place? The story took place in the countryside.2what happened at the beginning? The story began by describing how a small plane painted red and silver landed across the road where the fairgrounds used to be. The spot was near the house of the Peebles and so they heard the loud sound of landing.3who is the story narrated by? The narrator was a young girl who worked as a maid for the Peebles.4 what can you infer about the narrator?She came from a farmer’s family and dropped out of high school because of poor performance. Mr. Peebles, who was animal doctor, met her at her home when he was helping her father’s cow deliver twins, and thought she was a clever girl and could be a help to his wife who kept house and looked after two children. The narrator was fifteen then and it was her first time away from home.第十课:my last night in New Jersey, a white friend from New York took me to the nearest big town…1what did James and his white friend do one night in New Jersey?One night James and his white friend went to the movies and had a few drinks in Trenton, New Jersey.2what happened to him? When the movie ended, they walked into a diner named “ American Diner” andasked for a hamburger and a cup of coffee. However, the counterman answered “we don’t serve Negroes here.” Bald made some sardonic comment about the name of the diner and then they walked out into the streets. When they reentered the streets, something happened to Baldwin which had the force of an optical illusion, or a nightmare. The streets were very crowded and Baldwin got the illusion that all the white people were moving toward him, against him, and their faces gleamed. He wanted to defend himself by crushing these white faces which were crushing him. Then he walked for perhaps a block or two and walked into an enormous, glittering, and fashionable restaurant and sat at a table for two, and waited. Once again, he was refused by a waitress who was frightened at seeing a black man. She also said “We don't serve Negroes here." with a note of apology and fear in her voice. Baldwin got so angry that he picked up a water-mug half full of water and threw it at her with all his strength. But it missed her and shattered against the mirror. All the people in the restaurant were shocked and a round man grabbed him as reached the doors and began to beat him about the face. In the end, he managed to get rid of his pursuers and the police with the help of his friend.3what conclusion did he arrive at about himself? From this incident, Baldwin arrived at the conclusion about himself that he could have been murdered and he had been ready to commit murder. He saw that his life, his real life, was in danger, not from anything other people might do but from the hatred he carried in his own heart.第十一课:people live in two worlds. Like all living things, we inhabit the natural world, created over the…1main idea of each paragraph: 1= people live in two worlds: the natural world and the world of our own creation. We accept responsibility for events in our own world, but not for what occurs in the natural one.2=the division between these two worlds has now been breached. Humans are responsible for natural catastrophes.3=human activity has altered the global conditions profoundly and caused numerous environmental problems.4=the human attack on the ecosphere has instigated an ecological counterattack and the two worlds are at war.2where is the thesis of the passage stated? The thesis of the passage is stated in the last paragraph.3what striking metaphor does the writer use to…? The writer uses war metaphor to sum up his main argument.第十二课:like others, I learned of Jobs’ passing on an Apple device. S and I were just on our way out the…1 how does the author begin the article? The author begins the article by relating how she learned of Job s’ passing from her iPhone, which is an Apple device.2why does she begin this way? In this way, the author links herself and the readers through the same device that they use in daily life.3the function of Para 2: Para 2 is a transitional one, functioning as a link between the first and the last two paragraphs.4the main ideas of last two paragraphs: the last two paragraphs are about the general influence of Jobs and Apple device.5why does the author say “Jobs had a Promethean quality to him”? Because, like Prometheus, who brought fire to human beings, Jobs also gave us fire, which is knowledge. It is a metaphorical comparison of Apple technology to fire. Jobs changed our notion of technology.第十三课; the only surprise about the economic crisis of 2008 was that it came as a surprise to somany.1 what is the passage about? The passage is mainly about how the American economic crisis of 2008 developed from the bust of the housing bubble and then led to a financial and economic crisis globally.2Main idea of each Para: the first Para is about the cause of the economic crisis: a deregulated market awash in liquidity and low interest rates, a global real estate bubble, and skyrocketing subprime lending. The second Para points out that the current “Made in the USA” crisis spread quickly around the world. The third Para is about the housing bubble and bust in the United States. The fourth Para talks about the real reason behind the housing crisis: being the richest country in the world, America was living beyond its means, and the American pattern of life of borrowing and consuming was unsustainable. In fact, many Americans were deep in debt. The fifth Para points out that the breaking of the bubble at first affected the worst mortgages, but soon affected all residential real estate. The sixth Para is about the role of the banks in the housing mortgage crisis. When the bubble burst, the global credit markets began to melt down. So there was a financial crisis. The last Para explains that America and the world were faced with both a financial and an economic crisis. And the unfolding residential real estate crisis and commercial real estate finally led to the collapse of American manufacturing.3 how the Para logically organized? The Para are logically organized according to the cause and effect of the economic crisis.第十四课in a performance-oriented society such as ours, we strive to do well-but what we do is…1what is the passage about? The passage is mainly about the defects of GDP as a measure for societal well-being. It also touches upon ways to improve it and an alternative measure for societal well-being-GNH. 2what are the problems with GDP…? According to the writer, the problems with GDP are: GDP doesn’t reflect the debts we owe to the nature or the degradation of the environment and the depletion of natural resources in the process of growth; GDP per capita doesn’t reflect the efficiency of social operation; average per capita GDP doesn’t reflect how much growth each member of society can share.3what is GNH? GNH is gross nation happiness, attempted by Bhutan to measure the degree of happiness and sense of well-being among its citizens.第十五课:the Eiffel Town was built in 1889 to commemorate the centennial of the French Revolution.1what is the piece about? This piece is about people’s reaction to the construction of Eiffel Tower in 1889 and what it represents. The Eiffel Tower is a work of pure engineer, a magnificent representation that represents only itself. it is a bridge rotated from horizontal to vertical, going against historical symbolism and the unique historical and cultural traditional of Paris which it dominates.2why did the leaders of French establishment feel outraged about the construction of the…?The leaders of French establishment were outrage when they heard the cry of the Eiffel Tower because they thought it violated artistic taste.3why does the writer call the Eiffel Tower “the first great icon…? Because it is a work of abstract art and can be read as a symbol of many things, but it is none of these things. It forces the viewer to look beyond historical myths to the revolution that surrounds him. It does not argue with history; it ignores history\y.。

lesson fourteenSaturday Night and Sunday Morning星期六的晚上和星期日上午by Alan Sillitoe Text14-1 He sat by the canal fishing on a Sunday morning in spring, at an elbow(赤楊樹) where alders dipped over the water like old men on their last legs, pushed by young sturdy oaks from behind.在春天一个星期日的上午,他坐在运河边钓鱼,在他附近,赤杨树被后面生长着年轻茁壮的橡树向前推挤垂人水中,像垂死的老人一样。

He straightened his back, his fingers freeing nylon line from a speedily revolving reel.他直起腰身,用手指快速地从绕线轮上放出尼龙线。

Around him lay knapsack and jacket, an empty catch-net, his bicycle, and two tins of worms dug from the plot of garden at home before setting out.他周围放着背包、夹克、一个空捕鱼网、他的自行车和出发前在家里花园里挖出的两听虫子。

Sun was breaking through clouds, releasing a smell of earth to heaven.太阳钻出了云层,向空气中散发出泥土的气息。

Birds sang. A soundless and minuscular explosion of water caught his eye.鸟儿在欢唱。

他看到水面忽然间冒出一个无声的小小的水花,He moved nearer the edge, stood up, and with a vigorous sweep of his arm, cast out the line.他走到水边,站起身,用力挥动手臂,将钓鱼线抛了出去。
