Given a description such as this one tends to make certain assumptions.After reading the above description the reader is likely to assume certain things.5. This is the treason of artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain. An artist betrays his trust when he does not admit that evil is nothing fresh nor novel and pain is very dull a nd uninteresting.6.

The faint insistent sweetness of drooz may perfume the way of the city.The faint but compelling sweet scent of the drug drooz may fill the streets of the city.9. Perhaps it was born defective, or perhaps it has become imbecile through fear, malnutrition and neg lect.Perhaps the child was mentally retarded because it was born so or perhaps it has become very foolish and s tupid because of fear, poor nourishment and neglect.10. Its habits are too uncouth for it to respond to humane treatment.The habits of the child are so crude and uncultured that it will show no sign of improvement even if it is trea ted kindly and tenderly.11. Their tears at the bitter injustice dry when they begin to perceive the terrible justice of reality, and to accept it.They shed tears when they see how terribly unjust they have been to the child, but these tearsdry up when t hey realize how just and fair though terrible reality was.Unit81.....below the noisy arguments , the abuse and the quarrels , there is a reservoir of instinctivefellow-feeling...The English people may hotly argue and abuse and quarrel with each other , but there still exists a lot of natural sympathetic feelings for each other in their hearts.2....at heart they would like to take a whip to the whole idle troublesome mob of them.What the wealthy employers would really like to do is to whip all the workers whom they regard as lazy and troublesome.3...there are not many of these men , either on the board or the shop floor...There are not many snarling shop stewards in the workshop,nor are there many cruel wealthy employers on the board of directors.4.It demands bigness ,and they are suspicious of bigness.The contemporary world demands that everything should be done on a big scale and the English do not trust bigness.5.Against this , at least superficially ,Englishness seems a poor shadowy show...At least on the surface ,when Englishness is put against the power and success of Admass , Englishness seems to put up a rather poor performance.6....while Englishness is not hostile to change,it is deeply suspicious of change for change’s sake... Englishness is not against change, but it believes that changing just for change’s sake and not other useful purposes is very wrong and harmful.7.To put cars and motorways before houses seems to Englishness a communal imbecility.To regard cars and motorways as more important than houses seems to Englishness a public stupidity.8.I must add that while Englishness can still fight on ,Admass could be winning.I must further say that while Englishness can go on fighting, there is a great possibility for Admass to win.9.It must have some moral capital to draw upon,and soon it may be asking for an overdraft. Englishness draws its strength from a reservoir of strong moral and ethical principles ,and soon it may be asking for strength which this reservoir of principles cannot provide.10.They probably believe ,as I do , that the Admass”Good Life”is a fraud on all counts.There people probably believe ,as I do,that the “Good Life”promised by Admass is false and dishonest in all respects.11...he will not even find much satisfaction in this scrounging messy existence, which does nothing for a man’s self-respect.He will not even find much satisfaction in this untidy and disordered life where he manages to live as a parasite by sponging on people. This kind of life does not help a person to build up any self-respect.12.To them the House of Commons is a remote squabbling-shop.These people consider the House of Commons as a place rather far away from them where some people are always quarreling and arguing over some small matters.13...heavy hands can fall on the shoulders that have been shrugging away politics.They were very wrong to ignore politics for they can now suddenly and for no reason be arrested and thrown into prison.Unit101. It is a complex fate to be an American.The fate of an American is complicated and hard to understand.2...they were no more at home in Europe than I was.They were uneasy and uncomfortable in Europe as I was.3...we were both searching for our separate identities.They were all trying to find their own special individualities.4. I do not think that could have made this reconciliation here.I don't think I could have accepted in America my Negro status without feeling ashamed.5...it is easier to cut across social and occupational lines there than it is here.It is easier in Europe for people of different social groups and occupations to intermingle and have social int ercourse.6. A man can be as proud of being a good waiter as of being a good actor, and in neither case feel thre atened. In Europe a good waiter and a good actor are equally proud of their social status and position. They are not jealous of each other and do not live in fear of losing their position.7. I was born in New York, but have lived only in pockets of it.I was born in New York but have lived only in some small areas of the city.8. This reassessment, which can be very painful, is also very valuable.The reconsideration of the significance and importance of many things that one had taken for granted in the past can be very painful, though very valuable.9. On this acceptance, literally, the life of a writer depends.The life of a writer really depends on his accepting the fact that no matter where he goes or what he does he will always carry the marks of his origins.10. American writers do not have a fixed society to describe.American writers live in a mobile society where nothing is fixed, so they do not have a fixed society to descri be.11..Every society is really governed by hidden laws, by unspoken but profound assumptions on the part of the people.Every society is influenced and directed by hidden laws, and by many things deeply felt andtaken for granted by the people, though not openly spoken about.。

The young wanted to take part in the glorious adventure before the whole war ended. 8. These young people could no longer adapt themselves to lives in their hometowns or their families. 9.

(Under all this force and pressure) st. in the youth of America, who were already very tense, had to break down. 11.

It is assumed that the supposed possibility of limitlessness came about from the fact that the industrial revolution coincided with discovery of natural resources in the new world(the american continent) that became suddenly exploitable.however,it is not clear how to relate the ideals of the supposed limitlessness of resources with their eventual exhaustion3.Making the doctrine of limitlessness a normal standard of belief and behavior has produced a sort of moral reduction,namely,the strong wish to be efficient regardless of any cost ,and not to be hindered by complexity4.Connectedness.with.other,respect,reverent,responsibility,accountability,and self-subordination are allreduced to the minimum.our present leaders and heroes are especially favored by and are bad examples of this culture. 5.Thus putting an x mark on a paper voting ballot no longer converts our idea of voting no longer reflects our idea of voting.we don’t believe we are voting property if some high technology is not involved 6.We are not likely to get another planet to use up a careless way to offset error in damaging this one 7.The hope that we can solve the problems of industrialism by using small amounts of more technology seems at last to be losing position 8.If we dig into our cultural tradition,we are going to find a concern with religion,which, at least,completely destroys the belief that the individual life exists in a selfish way,and the destruction of this belief forces people to consider and examine seriously what human beings are and what human beings ought to be 9.This community economics is entirely different from the predatory economy of bringing large profits to the powerful and disadvantages and even ruin to the powerless 10.At the present time,quite a few writers,critics,and teachers of literature,as well as scientists and technicians,regard satan’s and fuastus’ defiance as possible and heroic1. Science is engaged in the task of making its basic concepts understood and accepted by scientists all over the world.2. The car model, called Fiesta, seems to have disappeared completely.3. The idea of a world car is similar to the idea of having a world style for architecture. /As architecture w as moving toward a common International Style, it was natural for the automobile to do the same.4. Things that are happening in auto making are similar to those happening in architecture.5. The mod ern man no longer has very distint individual traits shaped by a special environment and culture.6.The disadvantage of being a cosmopolitan is that he loses a home in the old sense of the world.7.The benefit of being a cosmopolitan is that he begins to think the old kind of home probably restricts his development and activities. 8.The compelling force of technology to universalize cannot be resist ed. 9.When every artist thought it was his duty to show his contempt for and objection to the Eiffel To wer which they considered an irreverent architectural structure. 10.People used to firmly believe that the things they saw around them were real solid substances but this has now been thrown into doubt by science, 11.The disappearance of history frees the mind of traditional concepts. It is like what Madame B-P says of the flexible and pliable quality that was beyond human powers and absolutely new.12Thatpe rhaps, shows how far logically modern aesthetic can go.The solid banks can become almost abstract a nd invisible.This is perhaps the furthest limit of how solid objective things may be disappearing.。

The control Watson had over this section of Florida was much similar to the dishonest or illegal activities of the law-enforcing officials and governors which Florida witnessed in the 20th century.5. Before the family built their own house, they lived in a shabby cabin at Gopher Key, close to the merciless Walton. The author uses an understatement -not the most gracious of living quarters -to describe their shabby, temporary home.6. We had abundant food on the island, and even the meals enjoyed by King Richard, who was famous for his love of food, couldn't possibly compare with ours. The tone shows the content of the author with the adequate supply of food on the island.7. Although it was very hot outside in the sun, we were happy to be dismissed from my mother's sessions indoors. We would have to read and write with her every day no matter what the weather was like.Lesson 41. The impact of Mike's leaving on my life was beyond my imagination. I didn't expect that Mike's leaving would have such a tremendous power that it would change the meaning of my existence completely. All my thoughts were about loss of Mike.2. At that time, we were young mothers, and we were supposed to lead a terribly busy life full of confusion and bewilderment caused by giving birth to and raising babies. And our minds were supposed to be fully occupied by how to feed the babies and things like that. However, in the midst of all this we still felt the need to discuss some of the important thinkers of our time like Simone de Beauvoir and Arthur Koestler and T. S. Eliot’s sophisticated work "The Cocktail Party".3. 1 would be frightened, and my fear was not caused by my neighbors' visibly hostile and violent way of life, but by a kind of formless and hidden emptiness and meaninglessness of human existence. What happened around me was totally irrelevant to me, and I feel very isolated and alienated.4. She did not ask me abut my new life, either out of subtle consideration for my feeling about this sensitive subject or out of disapproval of my new life style.5. 1t would be a morally low thing, an indecent thing to commit infidelity in the house of a friend.6. 1 knew that he was a person who had experienced the worst in life, the hardest experience a person might have to endure.7. They experienced the worst together and they knew what it was like and understood the meaning of that experience. Such an experience posed the gravest test to people. If they stood the test, their friendship or marriage would be strengthened, and a sacred bondage would be formed between them. But if they failed the test, their relationship would be broken and they would be driven apart.8. 1f they acted on love, they would take risks. They wouldn't do that or go further in their relationship, but they would rather let their love remain as a sweet trickle, which would flow on gently and permanently, and as an underground resource, which would never be fully tapped but would never go dry.Lesson 61. The raising of a pig is like a tragedy, because it always ends in the killing of the pig, and the set pattern一buying, raising and butchering一is strictly followed in most terms. The killing, deliberately planned and efficiently carried out, is the most serious type of murder, yet, whether pigs should be killed and meat served has never been questioned.2. A pig couldn't ask for any better living conditions; at least no pig has ever complained.3. . .. since a pig is, like a child, always hungry, the whole family would be worried when it refuses to eat.4. Fred was quite exited about the event. He was down at the pigpen all the time. Because of his swollen joints, he moved about unsteadily. His face set ap.art the grass along the fence as he moved about. He was like a doctor, with his Jong, drooping ears dangling like a stethoscope, and he scrabbled on the ground as if he were prescribing some medicine.5. When things were ready for the closing of the pig, Fred became even more excited. With short legs and a long body, it managed to get through the fence and acted as if it was taking charge of the medical treatment.6. . . . 0ur procession was a serious and efficient one. Fred, who acted as the pallbearer, walked unsteadily in the back, though he was not qualified for that function. The sorrow of losing a family member was shown clearly in his face. The autopsy of the body's inwards was done right at the side of the grave. The intestines at the pig were first thrown into the grave, so the pig could lie exactly on those things that caused his death.7. . . . 1f a pig dies before he is supposed to, it is a serious matter for the whole community to remember. The whole community would share the sadness for his death.8. The purpose of this essay is to show that l am sorry for what has happened to my pig, since 1 have failed to raise the pig and cannot provide a reason why it didn't grow the way other pigs have grown,9. The pig's grave in the woods doesn't have a tombstone, but whenever somebody wants to visit it, Fred will show the way. I know Fred and I will often visit it, separate or together, when we need to ponder over problems or when we are depressed. And these days will be like memorial days, with the only difference of not hoisting the national flag.Lesson 91. This is perhaps because they only have places of birth, but not places where they feel at home and which they identify themselves with. But these girls are strongly influenced by their hometown, and the influence stays with them forever even after they leave their hometown.2. The brown girls try hard to repress their emotions and passions. However, these natural human emotions cannot be wiped out totally. Sometimes they will emerge and burst out. And they will develop, become stronger and stay with them So whenever and wherever this funk bursts out, the brown girls will do their best to stifle it.3. 1f his needs were physical, she could meet them. She could make him comfortable and give him enough or even more than enough to satisfy his physical needs.4. Geraldine had seen black girls like Pecola at many places and many times in the past.5. 0n the one hand, they (girls like Pecola) were ignorant and uncomprehending. They did not ask question why their lives were so miserable. On the other hand, as they were poverty-stricken and practically had nothing, their eyes revealed their desire for anything that could make their lives easier.6. 1n the eyes of these girls one can see that they were in despair, without any hope for the future, and that their life was nothing but a waste.7. As the girls were growing into young women, they had never worn girdles to make their figure look slimmer, and thus more elegant; and when the boys grew up, they just began to wear their caps with the bills turned backward to indicate that they had become adults.Lesson 101.As Saint George is a hero, the patron of arms, symbolizing chivalry, his image often appears on banners,and his name is often mentioned in the speeches of politicians (politicians often pay lip service to him).Saint George is used as a symbolic figure for political purposes. But John Bull is the tradesman and he delivers the goods we need in our daily life while making money at the same time.2.The English public schools have four unique features. First, all boys live in boarding houses. Second, sportsand games are organized and compulsory as part of the school curricula. Third, older students have special duties to help control younger students while the latter must do jobs for the former. Lastly, great emphasis is placed on good form and team spirit. These features enable the public school students to have disproportionately great influence.3.Pay attention to my use of the word "bankrupt", a word related to business. This reveals my identity as amember of the commercial nation, who would be careful and sensible enough to avoid any risks of failing to pay their debts.4.But my friend expressed his views as a member of the Oriental countries. They are nourished by a traditionof great generosity and richness, which is different from the English tradition of middle-class prudence.5.In this aspect, true love is different from material things such as clay or even gold which can be divided andtaken away. Yet, if we share true love, it will never diminish.6.In the above anecdote, I have become an example of the Englishmen for the moment. That put me in a highposition which makes me dizzy and is unfamiliar to me. I will now come down from that height and return to my role as your commentator on the characteristics of the Englishman.7.The Englishman's nervous system acts promptly and feels slowly. The combination of the two qualities isuseful, and anyone who has this combination is mostly likely to be brave.8.As literature is based on national character, there must be in the English nature hidden resources of passionthat have produced the great romantic literature we see.9.That kind of criticism is just like Bernard Shaw's attacks. It is nothing new and I'm used to these tricks andjokes; they won't do any harm to me.10.The Englishmen think they have a tolerant and humorous attitude toward criticism. In fact it is not so,because their attitude is limited by uncomfortable laughter, which indicates that beneath the surface of their tolerant humorous attitude they are uneasy. When they try to be humorous and brush aside criticism, they would titter and guffaw. Such uncomfortable laughter is a sign of uneasiness.11.1I have already made all my opinions known to you. What is said is said, and being diplomatic cannotunsay what has been said.。

The Future of the EnglishParaphrase1.The English people may hotly argue and abuse and quarrel with each other but there still exists a lot of natural sympathetic feeling for each other.2. What the wealthy employers would really like to do is to whip all the workers whom they consider to be lazy and troublesome people.3. There are not many snarling shop stewards in the work-shop, nor are there many cruel wealthy employers on the board of managers (or governing board of a factory).4. The contemporary world demands that everything be done on a big scale and the English do not like or trust bigness.5. At least on the surface, when Englishness is put against the power and success of Admass, English ness seems to put up a rather poor weak performance.6. Englishness is not against change, but it believes that changing just for changing and for no other useful purpose to be very wrong and harmful.7. To regard cars and motorways as more important than houses seems to Englishness a public stupidity~8. I must further say that while Englishness can go on fighting, there is a great possibility of Admass winning.9. Englishness draws its strength from a reservoir of strong moral and ethical principles, and soon it may be asking for strength which this reservoir of principles cannot supply.10. These people probably believe, as I do, that the 'Good Life' promised by Admass is false and dishonest in all respects.11. He will not even find much satisfaction in his untidy and disordered life where he manages to live as a parasite by sponging on people. This kind of life does not help a person to build up any self-respect.12. These people think of the House of Commons as a place rather far away where some people are always quarreling and arguing over some small matter.13. If a dictator comes to power, these people then will soon learn in the worst way that they were very wrong to ignore politics for they can now suddenly and for no reason be arrested and thrown into prison.TranslationA1.他们甚至比自己想象中的英国人还要不同,倒是同他们自己感觉中的英国人差不多。
