教程第二版the African Americans课文翻译
教程第二版the African Americans课文翻译Dreams: making them work for us several nights a week Joseph woke up screaming from the same terrible dream.Joseph could never recall his whole dream,though.He only remembered that someone was running after him.Joseph was trying to get away,but in his dream he could not move。
he continued having this night mare for months。
he was so tired in the morning that it was hard for him to go to work。
Joseph, you see, is not a frightened child,but a grown man.Milton Kramer is a psychiatrist and dream researcher Cincinnati,Ohio.He believes that it is very important that people don't ignore their dreams,because they are messages from our sleeping minds.When Kramer studied dreams and dreamers, he foundthat people wake up feeling very discouraged after they have a bad dream.He also found that after having a good dream,people feel more optimistic.Clearly,dreams can have harmful or beneficial effects.As a result,Kramer believes that we need to learn how to change our bad dreams.When we understand what happened in our dreams,we can change negative,hurtful dreams to positive,helpful ones.Before we can begin to change a nightmare,however,we first have to remember what happened in our dream.Researchers say there are many ways to do this.We can keep a journal or diary of what we do when we are awake. Then,before going to sleep,we can review our day.This practice helps us to stay in charge.When we wake up,we should lie still while we try to rememberour dream.Dream researchers say that by staying in the same sleeping positive,we are more likely to recall the dream.We should also try to remember an important word or picture from the dream.This image makes the rest of the dream easier to later.The longer we sleep,the longer and more complex our dreams will be.Dr.Rosalind Cartwright is a dream researcher,too.She has developed another dream therapy for changing dreams.According to Dr.Cartwright,dream therapy involves four simple steps you can learn on your own.The first step is to recognize when you are having a bad dream that will make you feel helpless or upset the next morning.The second stop is to identify what is it about the dream that makes you feel bad-for example ,weak instead of strong ,or out of controlinstead of in control .Next ,stop any bad dream .you do not have to continue your bad dream. because you are in charge.The last step is to change the negative part of the dream,Some times you may have to wake yourself up and change the dream before you return to sleep.Other times it is possible to change the dream while you are still asleep.By using dream therapy , Joseph was able to change his nightmares.Gradually,his bad dreams stopped altogether.He began having more positive dreams and woke up feeling refreshed and cheerful.We feel well rested and more optimistic.Stopping a nightmare and changing it to a positive dream experience can be physically and psychologically beneficial to us all.翻译:梦:使他们为我们工作,好几个夜晚星期约瑟醒来了从相同的可怕梦尖叫。

Unit 4 Amazing art一、阅读理解A[2024重庆名校一测]In 1665, Johannes Vermeer put the last drop of paint onto a canvas and completed his masterpiece GirlwithaPearlEarring. But years later on an April day a cyclist named Janine Strong stopped her bike, paused her fitness app, and watched as the snaking line of her cycling route drew the shape of Vermeer’s masterpiece over the streets.Ms. Strong creates what has come to be known as "GPS art". It is an art category, which means you go outside with your handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) and start moving. The GPS records your movement by creating the dot type of track. This track is a line that details the path you’ve travelled. When you look at this line on the map, then you can see various shapes. Ms. Strong plans her rides in the shapes of stars, birds, lions — and the occasional Vermeer. Then to complete the digital vision of Vermeer’s masterpiece, she biked almost 50 miles around southern Brooklyn to make sure each turn and circle was accurately achieving the covering of Vermeer’s original.This kind of art form has grown with the widespread availability of satellite tracking for use by ordinary people in fitness apps. It is particularly popular in the app, Strava, and experienced a surge in use during the pandemic. According to a report, more than three billion activities have been uploaded to Strava since the beginning of 2024.The "GPS art" can be considered the 21st-century version of large-scale drawings on the landscape, a concept gradually known to the world. It even has its own Guinness World Records categories. There was once a couple who completed a 4,500-mile bike ride across Europe that resulted in a 600-mile-wide GPS drawing of a bicycle — the largest such drawing on record.本文介绍了GPS艺术的起源以及发展。

She fled. The combination of my arm and those countless Buddhists was too much for her.27我伸手揽过她的腰屏住呼吸低声说,如果算人数我该捐钱给佛教徒;露丝的确是为我好,因为我人这么好;但是我的手臂加上那些数不胜数的佛教徒实在让她无法忍受了;9.It was Ruth all over again. I had some very good friends who stood by me, and stilldo. But my acquaintances vanished, taking the girls with them.32What had happened to Ruth and me now happened again. My grade-two thinking frightened away many of my acquaintances.又是露丝的问题;我曾有一些很要好的朋友站在我这边,他们现在仍然站在我这边;但是我的熟人都不见了,带着他们的女孩子消失了;Unit 2 Text ⅠSpring SowingParaphrases of the Text1....sleep and yet on fire with excitement, for it was the first day of their first springsowing as man and wife.3Although they were still not fully awake, the young couple was already greatly excited, because that day was the first day of their first spring sowing since getting married.有些困乏,也很兴奋,因为这是他们作为夫妇第一个春播的第一天;2.But somehow the imminence of an event that had been long expected loved, fearedand prepared for made them dejected.3The couple had been looking forward to and preparing for this spring planting for a long time. But now that the day had finally arrived, strangely, they felt somehow a bit dejected, unhappy, sad, or depressed.但是随着春播的迫近,这一他们为之期待许久,热爱,害怕和准备的大事的临近,他们反而有些沮丧;3.Mary, with her shrewd woman’s mind, thought of as many things as there are in lifeas a woman would in the first joy and anxiety of her mating.3Mary, like all sharp and smart women, thought of everything that was going to happen in the rest of her life. At that time, she had the complex thoughts of a woman at the first crucial moment of her marriage. She was filled with joy and anxiety and was bothered by many thoughts.玛丽用她精明的女性的思维,思考着一个女人在新婚生活中所得到的快乐和生活中的琐事;4.Martin fell over a basket in the half-darkness of the barn, he swore and said that aman would be better off dead than (4)It would be better for him to die than tripped over a basket.马丁再昏暗的谷仓中被一只篮子绊倒了;5.And somehow, as they embraced,all their irritation and sleepiness left them. Andthey stood there embracing until at last Martin pushed her from him with pretended roughness and said:“Come, come, girl, it will be sunset before we begin at this rate.”4All the anger, unhappiness and drowsiness melted away with their hug. They remained in each others arms until finally Martin pushed her away, with pretended roughness.他们就这样拥抱着,直到最后马丁推开了玛丽,并假装强硬的说道:“来吧,快点,姑娘,再这样下去当我们开始时太阳都要下山了;”6....as they walked silently...through the little hamlet, there was not a soul about.5 When they walked silently through the small village, they saw not a single person around.当他们穿着生皮鞋穿过小村庄时,那还没有其他人;7.And they both looked back at the little cluster of cabins that was the center of theirworld, with throbbing hearts. For the joy of spring had now taken complete hold of them.5他们带着悸动的心跳同时回头看看村庄中相似的小屋,那就是他们生活的世界的中心;春播的喜悦已经紧紧地包裹住了他们;8.Suppose anybody saw us like this in the field of our spring sowing, what would theytake us for but a pair of useless, soft, empty-headed people that would be sure to die of hunger12If people should see us like this with your arm around my waist, what would they think of us They were sure to regard us as a pair of good-for-nothings, people who are unable to endure hardships and foolish and, therefore, were sure to die of hunger.“想想如果有人看到我们在春播的土地上这样,他们只会把我们当成一对没用、软弱、没脑子的会被饿死的傻瓜,呼”9.She became suddenly afraid of that pitiless, cruel earth, the peasant’s slave master,which would keep her chained to hard work and poverty all her life until she would sink again into its bosom.13She became afraid of the earth because it was going to force her to work like a slave and force her to struggle against poverty all her life until she died and was buried in it.10.It overpowered that other feeling of dread that had been with her during themorning.17But when she sat and looked around the village, the fields and the people, a strange feeling of happiness arose in her. The feeling of joy drove away the feeling of terror that she had had in the morning.11.The strong smell of the upturned earth acted like a drug on their nerves.2012.All her dissatisfaction and weariness vanish from Mary’s mind with the deliciousfeeling of comfort that overcame her at having done this work with her husband.34Unit 3 Text ⅠGroundless BeliefsParaphrases of the Text1.They rest upon mere tradition, or on somebody’s bare assertion unsupported byeven a show of proof (1)They are only based on tradition, or on somebody’s assertion, but are not supported even by the least amount of proof.这些说法仅仅根据传统,或者根据某人毫无证据的断言……2.But if the staunchest Roman Catholic and the staunchest Presbyterian had beenexchanged when infants,and if they had been brought up with home and all other influences reversed, we can had very little doubt what the result would have been.3 If they were exchanged when they were infants and brought up different homes and under different influences, then the staunchest Roman Catholic would be the staunchest Presbyterian, vice versa. This shows that our beliefs are largely influenced by surroundings. 不过,如果在婴儿时期把最虔诚的罗马天主教徒和长老会教义信徒予以交换,然后使他们在相反的家庭与影响下长大,所能得出的结果是毋庸置疑的;3.It is consistent with all our knowledge of psychology to conclude that each wouldhave grown up holding exactly the opposite beliefs to those he holds now (3)我们可以根据所掌握的心理学知识得出结论,两人长大后会持有与现在恰好相反的观点……4.Of course we do not cease, when we cease to be children, to adopt new reliefs onmere suggestion.4Of course it does not mean that when we grow up we no longer have these mistaken beliefs. We are still easy and often willing victims of newspapers and advertising.当然,我们长大后也不会停止仅仅根据建议接受新观点;5.We should remember that the whole history of the development of human thoughthas been full of cases of such “obvious truths” breaking down when examined in the light of increasing knowledge and reason.8我们应该记住,在人类思想发展的整个历史过程中充满了这种“明显的真理”现象,经过人类不断增长的知识与理性的检验,这些“真理”不攻自破;6.The age-long struggle of the greatest intellects in the world to shake off thatassumption is one of the marvels of history.9世界上最伟大的学者们经过长期斗争否定了这一假设,这也是人类历史上的一大奇迹;7.Many modern persons find it very difficult to credit the fact that men can even havesupposed otherwise.10许多现代人发现很难相信人们曾有过另一种假设;8.We adopt and cling to some beliefs because—or partly because—it “pays” us to doso. But, as a rule, the person concerned is about the last person in the world to be able to recognize this in himself.14Peoples who hold those beliefs through self-interest usually will not admit this. They usually try to cloak themselves with beautiful altruistic words.我们之所以接受并且坚持某些观点的原因是——或者部分原因是——这样做对我们“有好处”;9.There is many a man who is unconsciously compelled to cling to a belief because heis a “somebody”in some circle—and if he were to abandon that belief, he would find himself nobody at all.15Many people are forced to hold a belief because he has become an important person in his group. If he gave up that belief, he would turn insignificant at once.许多人无意识地被迫坚持某种观点,因为他是某个圈子里的“重要人物”——如果他放弃这一观点,就会成为无足轻重的小人物;10.Somewhat similar is the acceptance of an opinion through the desire—probably notrecognized by the person concerned—to justify his own nature, his own position, or his own behaviour.17另一种类似的情况是有些人出于证明自己的性格、立场或行为的愿望而接受某一种观点,也许当事人不承认这一点;Unit 4 Text ⅠLions and Tigers and BearsParaphrases of the Text1.Of course, anybody who knows anything about New Y ork knows the city’s essentialplatitude --- that you don’t wander around Central Park at night --- and in that, needless to say, was the appeal; it was the thing you don’t do.1Everybody who knows New York knows the widely discussed topic there, that is, you should not wander in Central Park at night because it’s dangerous. However, precisely because of the risk, there are always people attracted to do so. They just wish to do what people normally don’t do.当然,了解纽约的人都知道关于这座城市老生常谈的话题——夜里不能在中央公园闲逛——而这,不用说,正是吸引力所在:它是你平常不会做得事情;2.So far , so normal, and this could have been an outdoor summer-stock Shakespeareproduction anywhere in America, except in one respect (3)And tonight’s performance could be any outdoor performance of Shakespeare’s play one regularly finds in summer in America. There was only one difference.到目前为止,一切还算正常,这和美国任何地方在室外上演的莎士比亚夏令剧目没什么不同,除了一点:3....the rotating red light was like a campfire in the wild, warning what’s out there tostay away.3旋转着的红色警灯就像野外的篝火,警告四周存在的威胁不要靠近;4.I got my bearings.6 I found where i was. 我终于认清了方向;5.The park was to be strolled through, enjoyed as an aesthetic experience, like a walkinside a painting.7人们漫步于公园,享受美的体验,犹如走进一幅油画中一样;6.I was emboldened by the realization: I was no longer afraid; I was frightening.9意识到这点,我的胆子就大了起来:我不再害怕了,令人害怕的是我;7.The park is now framed, enveloped even, by the city, but there was no escaping therecognition that the city—contrived, man-made, glaring obtrusive, consuming wasteful and staggering quantities of electricity and water and energy--- was very beautiful.12But there was no denying the fact you have to admit that the city was very beautiful, although it was not a natural kind of beauty, it was artificial and showy, and it used up a great amount of water and energy.公园现在被镶嵌在城市中,甚至被城市包裹,但不可否认的是这座城市——这座经过雕琢的、人工打造的、灯火辉煌8.And then, nature finding herself unable to resist, it started to pour.24Unit 9 Text ⅠThe Damned Human RaceParaphrases of the Text1.That is to say, I have subjected every postulate that presented itself to the crucialtest of actual experiment, and have adopted it or rejected it according to the result.para.2In other words, I have put every theory or hypothesis there is to the decisive test of actual experiment.也就是说,通过实验,我对每一种假设都进行了检测,并根据实验结果采纳或者否定了这一假设;2.I was aware that … have not scrupled to cheat the ignorant and the helpless out oftheir poor servings in order to partially appease that appetite. para.4I knew that many man who have more money than they can ever use have shown a maddesire to get more, and they have not ed to cheat poor people and their few saving in order to y that desire.我意识到,许多人虽然聚敛了不计其数的财富,然而他们仍然渴望更多,并且从无知又无助的人身上肆无忌惮地夺取微薄的财富,以便来平息心中的愿望;3.Men keep harems but it is by brute force, privileged by atrocious laws which theother sex were allowed no hand in making. para.6人妻妾成群,只是依靠暴力,由暴力的法律来授予特权;然而女性是无权参与制定这些法律的;4.He will not even enter a drawing room with his breast and back naked, so alive arehe and his mates to indecent suggestion. para.8他甚至不会裸露着乳房和屁股走进卧室,但他和同伴对下流的暗示又十分敏感;5.No--- Man is the Animal that Blushes. He is the only one that does it --- or hasoccasion to. para.8No, man is not the only animal that laughs, but it is true that man is the animal that blushes. He is the only animal that does it or has the need to.不——人是会脸红的动物;是唯一会脸红的动物——或者说有必要脸红;6.Man---when he is King John, with a nephew to render untroublesome, he uses ared-hot iron; para.9In the case of King John who wanted to get rid of his nephew he used a red-hot iron to torture him.当他作为约翰国王的时候,为了除掉侄子,他会用烧红的烙铁来折磨他;7.The cat is moderate---unhumanly moderate, she only scares the mouse, she does nothurt it; she doesn’t dig out its eyes, or tear off its skin, or drive splinters under its nails---man-fashion; when she is done playing with it she makes a sudden meal of itand puts it out of its trouble. para.9猫是适度的——与人不同的是它在吓唬老鼠,并不去伤害它;它不去挖老鼠的眼睛,剥它的皮,或者把木条钉进它的指甲里——像人一样;在它戏弄玩老鼠之后,他、便突然把它当饭吃了,使它脱离痛苦;8.He sets himself apart in his own country, under his own flag, and sneers at the othernations, and keeps multitudinous uniformed assassins on hand at heavy expense to grab slices of other people’s countries…para.13It is claimed that man is the only Patriot. Only man is capable of such noble sentiment. But what does it mean It simply means that he keeps himself away from others, occupies a piece of land, calls it his own country, and thinks that he is better than others, then he puts up a flag and gathers together a group of killers and steals land from others.他打着国旗,在自己的国度里自诩与众不同,并嘲笑其他国家;他不惜花费重金,屯兵无数,就是为了吞噬大片他人的国土9.He is the only animal that has the True Religion, several of them.

爱丽丝漫游仙境黑布林阅读英文版全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1Alice's Adventures in the Bizzare Land of the Black KingOne sunny afternoon, I was feeling really bored. I had nothing to do and nowhere to go. My sister was reading a big book, but it didn't have any pictures or games or anything fun like that. It was just a bunch of words. Yawn!I was starting to drift off to sleep when suddenly a funny little white rabbit ran by! This rabbit was very peculiar because it was wearing a fancy waistcoat and checking its pocket watch, murmuring "Oh dear, I'm late, I'm late!" Well, you don't see that every day!Being the curious young girl that I am, I simply had to follow the rabbit and see where it was going. I chased it into a rabbit hole and fell...fell...fell down a very deep and bizarre hole. It felt like I was falling forever!Finally, I landed with a big 'thump' in a hallway lined with doors. The little rabbit was now nowhere to be seen. I tried toopen the doors, but they were all locked. On a little glass table, there was a key that opened a tiny door just big enough for me to walk through. But when I tried, I realized I was too big to fit!Just then, I noticed a bottle labeled "DRINK ME." Not sure what it contained, but I was thirsty so I drank it all down. Suddenly, I started shrinking...smaller...and smaller...until I was just the right size to go through the little door!On the other side was themost wonderfully strange place I had ever seen. Everything seemed to be living - the trees, the flowers, even the river! A smiling Cheshire cat appeared out of nowhere andStartedToTalkToMe in rhymes. He told me I had entered Wonderland and should visit the March Hare for directions to the kingdom of the dreaded Black King.The March Hare was having a never-ending tea party with friends like the Dormouse. They were all quite rude, shouting and throwing things. The March Hare did tell me I should attend the trial being held by the King of Hearts. So I went along my way, passing peculiar characters like Tweedledee, Tweedledum, the Caterpillar, and the Duchess with her howling baby that turned into a pig!Finally, I arrived at the bizarre court of the King of Hearts. The strangest trial was underway. The Knave of Hearts wasaccused of stealing the King's tarts, but there wasn't any proof. Everyone was acting silly, like a bunch of little kids. There were cards acting as soldiers, stamping their feet and shouting nonsense.The rudest one was the terrifying Black King. He was as tall as a house with a big bushy beard and a booming voice like thunder. Whenever he spoke, everyone shuttered in fear."SILENCE!" the Black King roared like a lion. "This is my court and I'll have order!""But your majesty, there's no evidence against my poor Knave!" cried the Queen of Hearts. "He'd never steal a thing!""ENOUGH! Off with his head!" bellowed the King, his face turning as red as a tomato.Well this made the Queen even more furious. She started beating him over the head with a fan, screaming "You man篇2The Black Knight of WonderlandAlice was having the most peculiar dream. She had fallen down a rabbit hole and ended up in a strange land called Wonderland. Everything and everyone she met seemed to bequite mad and nonsensical. But one of the most memorable encounters was with the fearsome Black Knight.Alice was wandering through the woods of Wonderland when she saw a strange figure in the distance. As she drew nearer, she could make out that it was a knight dressed in black armor from head to toe. He was riding a powerful black horse and holding a large club in his hand."I hope he is friendly," thought Alice. But the Black Knight's face looked quite fierce behind his helmet's visor.Suddenly, the Knight caught sight of Alice and wheeled his horse around, charging straight towards her! Alice let out a little shriek of surprise. The Black Knight raised his club menacingly as he thundered closer and closer.Just in time, Alice cried out, "Please sir knight, I mean you no harm! I'm just a little girl lost in these woods." The Knight pulled hard on his horse's reins, bringing the mighty steed to a halt just a few feet from Alice. She stared up at the imposing figure towering above her on his horse.In a deep, gruff voice, the Black Knight bellowed, "What? A little girl, you say? Well, I shall not be made a fool of by the likesof you! Have at thee!" And with that, he swung his massive club straight at Alice's head!Alice ducked just in time, the club whooshing over her. "Sir Knight, please! I meant no offense!" she pleaded. But the Black Knight merely growled and swung his club again and again, each time Alice scrambling to dodge the blows."You are behaving most rudely!" Alice scolded between swings of the club. "Is that any way for a knight to act? I thought knights were supposed to be noble and chivalrous!"The Black Knight paused for a moment, seeming to consider her words. But then he growled, "Chivalry? Bah! I have no use for such foolish notions!" And he renewed his attack, swinging the club with all his might. Alice was starting to tire from all the dodging and ducking."Please sir, I beg of you! Let us settle this dispute through words rather than violence!" Alice cried desperately. The Black Knight grunted dismissively, taking another swing.But then an idea struck Alice. "Sir Knight, I challenge you to a battle of wits instead of weapons!"The Black Knight paused again, lowering his club slightly. "A battle of wits, you say? Very well, I shall entertain this notion. State your challenge, girl."Alice thought quickly. "Why, a simple riddle of course! If I can pose a riddle that you cannot answer, you must promise to let me go unharmed."The Black Knight let out a boisterous laugh. "Ha! Very well, I accept your foolish challenge. But if you fail, I will not hesitate to smash you with my club!"Alice gulped but tried to look brave. "The riddle is this: What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon, and three legs in the evening?"The Black Knight furrowed his brow behind his visor, considering Alice's riddle carefully. After a few moments, he gripped his club tighter and growled, "Some kind of foul trickery, no doubt! I've had enough of these games!" And he reared back, preparing to swing his club mightily at the helpless Alice.Just then, a piping voice called out from nearby, "It's a human, Your Blackness! A baby crawls on all fours, a grown person walks on two legs, and an elderly person uses a cane - three legs in the evening of life!"Alice and the Knight both turned to see none other than the Messenger from the King and Queen of Hearts. He bowed low before the fierce knight.篇3Alice in the Amazing Adventures of Wonderland!One of my favorite stories is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. It's about a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole into a magical world called Wonderland. The chapter I want to tell you about is called "A Caucus-Race and a Long Tale." It's really funny and exciting!Alice is wandering through the weird woods of Wonderland feeling very bored and sleepy. She sees a path and decides to follow it. Along the way, she passes a little house about four feet high. Outside, a fat little man is sitting at a table screaming "No more mail! No more sorting!"Alice knocks at the door but no one answers. So she walks around to the window and peers inside. There are copies of the same letter scattered everywhere! The man keeps shouting and throwing letters around like crazy.Alice opens the little window and leans inside to see what all the fuss is about. The little man flies into a rage, thinking Alice is a serpent trying to attack him. But when篇4Alice's Adventures with the Black KingOne sunny day, Alice was feeling very bored and sleepy. She was sitting by her sister on the bank of a river when suddenly a White Rabbit ran past, muttering "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!" This struck Alice as very odd because she had never before seen a rabbit that could talk.Filled with curiosity, Alice decided to follow the strange White Rabbit down the rabbit hole. She tumbled down, down, down into a curious hallway with many locked doors. Alice came upon a little table with a tiny golden key that unlocked a door too small for her to fit through. How puzzling!Alice spotted a bottle labelled "DRINK ME" and decided to risk it, thinking it may cause her to shrink. One sip and she began to shrink rapidly until she was just the right size to go through the little door. But when she went through, she found herself in a lovely garden surrounded by tall trees.As Alice wandered through the garden, she came upon a mushroom about her height with a thick blue caterpillar sitting on top, smoking a hookah pipe. The caterpillar seemed quite rude, asking her "Who are you?" When Alice admitted she didn't know, the caterpillar told her unhelpfully "You ought to know who you are!"Alice soon realized that by eating different sides of the mushroom, she could shrink down tiny or grow herself tall. How useful! She met many strange creatures, including a Duchess with a grinning Cheshire Cat nearby, a Cook tossing baby pigs around, and the Mock Turtle and Gryphon telling their sad stories.Eventually, Alice wandered into the garden of live playing cards painting the white roses red for the impatient Queen of Hearts. The Queen was a foul-tempered monarch who shouted "Off with their heads!" at every little mistake. Alice soon found herself being ordered about and made to join a bizarre game of croquet using live flamingos for mallets and hedgehogs for croquet balls!When the Cheshire Cat arrived grinning from ear to ear, the Queen immediately ordered "Off with his head!" But the cat was able to magically make his body disappear bit by bit until onlyhis mischievous smile remained, floating in midair. The cat taunted the Queen, saying "You can't possibly cut off my head unless I have a body to go with it!"The frustrated Queen called for a trial and Alice was forced to appear as a witness. Acting as judges were the ruthless King of Hearts and the kindly White Rabbit. To Alice's dismay, they brought forth a rather unpleasant fellow named the Black King as the accused.The Black King looked quite sinister with his piercing eyes and stern expression. He wore a black crown and robe decorated with hearts. Alice couldn't understand why the courtroom burst into applause when the Black King entered. Perhaps his subjects feared disagreeing with him.When the Queen called "Silence in the court!", everyone hushed immediately. The White Rabbit meekly read the ridiculous accusations against the Black King, including "murdering all the time" and "beating his wife with a poker." Alice gasped at the absurd charges. The Black King didn't deny the claims, but simply frowned and insisted "I didn't do it."All sorts of strange witnesses took the stand, babbling nonsense statements that made no sense. Even a pack of playing cards was called to testify! Alice tried to follow along but feltmore bewildered by the minute. The Queen seemed determined to find the Black King guilty no matter what.Just when Alice thought the trial couldn't get any madder, the Queen roared at her, "Have you anything to say for yourself?" Alice tried to protest that she didn't know the first thing about the silly case, but her words were twisted into confusing logic. Frustrated, Alice declared "You're nothing but a pack of cards!"At this, the infuriated court of card guards rushed at poor Alice. She had no choice but to run away as quickly as possible. As Alice raced through the garden, the strange creatures she met shrank down to Playing card size and gave chase. The Gryphon, Caterpillar, Cheshire Cat, and more all pursued her, shouting taunts and orders to halt.Too afraid to stop, Alice kept running until suddenly she woke up with her sister gently brushing stray leaves off her face. Alice's unbelievable adventure through Wonderland had only been a peculiar dream after all! But what an imagination she had...篇5Alice's Curious Adventure with the Bread-and-ButterfliesAlice was a curious young girl who loved having adventures and exploring new places. One sunny afternoon, she was sitting by a riverbank feeling rather bored when she spotted a White Rabbit wearing a waistcoat and checking his pocket watch. "How strange!" thought Alice. She had never seen a rabbit with a watch before.Filled with curiosity, Alice followed the peculiar Rabbit down a rabbit hole and found herself tumbling into a magical world called Wonderland. After an incredible shrinking and growing episode with a bottle labelled "DRINK ME", Alice finally became the right size to fit through a tiny door and enter a beautiful garden.In the garden, Alice came across some very odd creatures indeed. First, she met a Footman who was painting white roses red because the Queen of Hearts hated white roses and would behead anyone who planted them. Then she saw a Fat Old Sheep sitting on a trunk surrounded by animals holding umbrellas over their heads.But the strangest sight of all were the Bread-and-Butterflies! These were curious creatures with crisp buttery wings and crumbly bread bodies. Some had slices of toast for heads whileothers had flaky croissant antennas. They fluttered about, chirping in crumbly little voices."Why, you're Bread-and-Butter-flies!" exclaimed Alice in delight. "I've never seen anything like you before."The largest Bread-and-Butterflies, who seemed to be their leader with his slice of rye bread head, addressed Alice. "That's because we only exist in Wonderland, Miss. We're quite unique, you know.""Indeed you are!" said Alice. "Might I ask how you came to exist?""Well you see," began the rye bread leader, "We started out as ordinary bread loaves, just waiting to be sliced and buttered. But then one day, the Queen of Hearts got dreadfully hungry and bit right into one of us without bothering to slice or butter first!""How rude!" cried Alice.The bread leader nodded somberly. "Indeed. Well, that careless, unbuttered bite brought us to life asBread-and-Butterflies. The Queen has a powerful hunger, you see, so powerful it can animate her food!"Just then, a shrill voice rang out "Off with their crusts! Off with their crusts!"Alice turned to see the Queen of Hearts herself striding into the garden, looking quite hungry and irritable. All theBread-and-Butterflies scattered in a panic, their crispy wings beating rapidly as they tried to flutter away."Wait!" cried Alice. "Please don't eat them, Your Majesty. They're alive and can talk!""Stuff and nonsense!" bellowed the Queen. "They're nothing but snacks. Guards! Off with that girl's head for consorting with bread creatures!"With that, the Queen's card soldiers surrounded poor Alice, who backed away in fright. Desperate to save her new scone and sourdough friends, Alice quickly grabbed the rye bread leader."Please Mr. Bread-and-Butterfly," she pleaded, "Teach me how to fly like you so I can escape the Queen!"The resourceful rye bread leader ripped off a bit of his crust and crumbled it into Alice's hand. "Eat this enchanted crust, but don't chew! It will grant you bread wings for a short while."Alice didn't hesitate. She tossed the crust into her mouth and, miraculously, a pair of flaky, crispy wings sprouted from her back! With a few frantic flaps, she rose up into the sky just as the card soldiers were about to seize her."You there! Come back at once!" screamed the Queen, shaking her fist up at the flying Alice. But it was no use, for Alice was soaring high above the reach of the cards."Thank you, Mr. Rye Bread!" she called down happily to the Bread-and-Butterflies scattering below. "I shan't forget this experience!"And with that, Alice flapped her magical bread wings and flew off over the horizon of Wonderland, safe from the clutches of the ravenous Queen of Hearts. She had found friendship in some very unlikely baked goods and knew she would cherish this curious adventure forever.When at last Alice's bread wings crumbled away, she found herself deposited back in the real world by the riverbank, just as she had been before following the White Rabbit. She smiled to herself, stroking the remaining buttery crumbs on her fingers. Perhaps someday she would dream up another bout of silliness and return to the whimsical realm of Wonderland once more.篇6Alice's Adventures with the Black PuddingOne sunny morning, Alice was feeling rather bored. She had finished all her lessons and had nothing to do. "I wish something exciting would happen," she said with a sigh.Just then, a White Rabbit wearing a waistcoat and carrying a pocket watch scurried past her. "Oh my ears and whiskers! I'm late, I'm late for a very important date!" he cried.Alice had never seen a talking rabbit before. Filled with curiosity, she jumped up and hurried after him down a large rabbit hole. She tumbled and twisted, falling deeper and deeper until finally she landed with a soft thump on a pile of dried leaves.Looking around, Alice found herself in a long hallway with doors of all shapes and sizes. The only unlocked door was much too small for her to fit through. On a nearby table, she spotted a little golden key that just might unlock it. But when she tried, she was still too big."Oh, how I wish I could shrink down!" Alice exclaimed. Then she noticed a little bottle labeled "DRINK ME" sitting on the table. Hoping it might help her shrink, Alice took a sip. Immediately, she began growing smaller and smaller until she was only ten inches tall! She was finally the right size to go through the tiny door.Alice unlocked the door and stepped through into the most wondrous place. It was a beautiful garden filled with bright flowers and singing birds. At the center was a long table set for a grand tea party with a large blackish-brown pudding sitting in the middle."Oh goody, a party! And something delicious to eat," said Alice, her tummy rumbling. She hurried over to take a seat, but the pudding suddenly grew a face and two stubby arms!"Oi! Who invited you to this party, missy?" grumbled the Pudding in a deep, gravelly voice. "The name's Black Pudding, and this is a very important un-birthday party for me and me mates."Alice gasped. "A talking pudding? Well I never!"Just then, the Mad Hatter, March Hare, and Dormouse all arrived dressed in their finest tea party attire. "You're just in time to meet our guest of honor!" cried the Hatter merrily."Indeed, indeed! Hip hip hooray for Mr. Black Pudding!" cheered the March Hare, flinging teacups everywhere.The Dormouse simply snoozed away, snoring loudly with teaspoon in hand."Enough of this folly!" bellowed the Pudding. "Let's just tuck in and eat already. I'll start with those delicious-looking biscuits over there."With that, the Pudding rolled himself over to a plate of cookies, opening his mouth wide to take a big bite. But before he could, the plate sprouted feet and scampered away!"I say, that's hardly fair sport!" huffed the Pudding, rolling after the plate which kept dancing just out of reach. The Mad Hatter and March Hare doubled over in laughter at the silly sight.Alice couldn't help but giggle too. She'd never seen a grumpier, hungrier pudding in all her life! Just then, the Cheshire Cat appeared, grinning from ear to ear."Having trouble catching your snack, are you Puddy?" he teased. "Here, allow me."With a wave of his paw, the Cheshire Cat made another plate of cookies appear - this time with arms and legs of their own! They began skipping in a circle around the Pudding, just out of his grasp."Catch me if you can, Rolly Polly!" they taunted in little singing voices."Drat and double drat!" fumed the Pudding, bouncing and rolling trying to corner one of the sly cookie scouts.The harder he tried, the more the friends laughed and cheered. Even Alice was overcome with giggles watching the portly Pudding huff and puff.At last, exhausted, the Pudding plopped down in defeat. "Oh, very well. You've had your fun. But now I really must insist on some refreshments!""As you wish, your Puddingship!" The Cheshire Cat bowed and made the laughing cookies disappear in a puff of smoke, replacing them with a fresh plate of biscuits. The Pudding wasted no time gobbling them up greedily.When he finished, he let out a deep, contented, "Ahhhhh! Now that really hit the spot."The Mad Hatter raised his teacup. "A toast! To our guest of honor, the one and only Mr. Black Pudding. The jolliest, plumpest, tastiest pudding in all of Wonderland!""Here, here!" they all cheered, even Alice.And so, fueled by sweets and friendship, the un-birthday party for the Black Pudding continued merrily into the night,filled with more delicious eats, delirious fun, and one very hungry (but happily fed) guest of honor.The End。

Why哎呀, you have got quite hot! Come in, and let us sit on the new bench. I will tell you a story."So they both went in and sat down on the new bench. Elisabeth took the little seed-rings out of (take out of取出)her apron and strung(string[striŋ]用线穿,串起) them on long threads[θred]线; 细线. Reinhard began his tale传说,故事: "There were once upon a time从前three spinning(spin[spin]纺纱)- women..." (Footnote脚注: The beginning of one of the best known of最著名的Grimm's fairy tales.)"Oh!" said Elisabeth, "I know that off光, 完,完全by heart(know it off by heart了然于胸,熟记于心,背下来,熟知); you really must not always tell me the same story." Accordingly因此,于是Reinhard莱因哈德had to give up放弃the story of the three spinning- women and tell instead替代,顶替the story of the poor man who was cast[kɑ:st]扔;抛;投;丢into the den[den]兽窝, 兽穴of lions."It was now night," he said, "black night, you know, and the lions were asleep. But every now and then有时,时而,不时they would yawn[jɔ:n]打呵欠in their sleep and shoot out 突然伸出their red tongues(tongue[tʌŋ]舌头). And then the man would shudder['ʃʌdə]战栗,打颤,发抖and think it was morning. All at once突然a bright light强光fell(fall降落, 落下) all about him, and when he looked up an angel['eindʒəl]安琪儿,天使was standing before him. Theangel beckoned(beckon['bekən]示意,召唤) to him with his hand and then went straight直接地; 径直地into the rocks."Elisabeth had been listening attentively [ə'tentivli]聚精会神地. "An angel?" she said. "Had he wings then?""It is only a story," answered Reinhard; "there are no angels, you know.""Oh, fie [fai]咄,呸! Reinhard!" she said, staring(stare凝视,注视) him straight in the face. He looked at her with a frown[fraun]皱眉,蹙额, and she asked him hesitatingly['heziteitiŋli]支吾其词地, 踌躇地: "Well, why do they always say there are? mother, and aunt, and at school as well也,还有?""I don't know," he answered."But tell me," said Elisabeth, "are there no lions either?""Lions? Are there lions? In India, yes. The heathen ['hi:ðən]不信上帝的人, 异教徒priests[pri:st]祭司harness['hɑ:nis]用轭具把(役畜)套在…上,用挽具把…套到…上them to their carriages, and drive赶,驱赶about在…各处the desert with them. When I'm big, I mean意欲,打算to go out外出; 出国there myself. It is thousands of times more beautiful in that country than it is here at home; there's no winter at all there. And you must come with me. Will you?" "Yes," said Elisabeth; "but mother must come with us, and your mother as well." "No," said Reinhard莱因哈德, "they will be too old then, and cannot come with us.""But I mayn't go by myself我独自地.""Oh, but you may也许, 可能right enough一点没错; you will then really be my wife, and the others will have no say没有发言权in the matter在这件事上.""But mother will cry哭!""We shall come back回来again of course," said Reinhard impetuously [im'petjuəsli]冲动地,性急地. "Now just tell me straight out坦白地,率直地, will you go with me? If not, I will go all alone, and then I shall never come back again."The little girl came very near to crying哭(come near doing sth几乎,差点就做某事了). "Please don't look so angry," said she; "I will go to India with you." Reinhard seized(seize[si:z]猛抓;抓住) both her hands with frantic ['fræntik]发疯似的, 发狂的glee[gli:]欢快,欣喜, and rushed out冲出;仓促地跑出with her into the meadow."To India, to India!" he sang, and swung(swing[swiŋ]使转动) her round and round, so that her little red kerchief ['kə:tʃif]头巾, 围巾was whirled(whirl[wə:l]使旋转) from off(shake off 抖掉;甩掉;逃脱;摆脱whirl off旋掉) her neck. Then he suddenly let her go松手让某人走and said solemnly ['sɔləmli]严肃地, 庄严地:"Nothing will come of it不会有什么结果的, I'm sure; you haven't the pluck[plʌk]勇气,胆量,决心.""Elisabeth! Reinhard!" some one was now calling from the garden gate. "Here we are!" the children answered, and raced home竞相飞奔跑回家hand in hand手拉手.* * * * *So the children lived together. She was often too quiet文静的,沉默的for him, and he was often too head-strong固执的;任性的;刚愎自用的for her, but for all that尽管如此,虽然如此they stuck (stick) to坚持不变one another互相(彼此坚持). They spent nearly all their leisure [‘leʒə]闲暇的;空闲的hours闲暇时间together: in winter in their mothers' tiny rooms, during the summer in wood and field.Once when Elisabeth was scolded(scold[skəuld]训斥;责骂) by the teacher in Reinhard's hearing在(某人)听得见的范围内, he(莱因哈德) angrily banged(bang[bæŋ]猛摔;砰地一扔) his slate [sleit]石板写字板upon the table in order to为了turn upon指向,转向himself the master's wrath[ræθ]愤怒, 狂怒, 盛怒(把老师的愤怒引向自己). This failed(fail) to未能attract[ə'trækt]吸引, 引起attention.But Reinhard paid(pay) no further更多的,进一步的attention to the geography lessons, and instead反而,反倒he composed(compose[kəm'pəuz]创作,撰写) a long poem['pəuim], in which he compared(compare[kəm'pɛə]比拟,喻为,把…比作) himself to a young eagle雏鹰, the schoolmaster校长to a grey[grei] crow[krəu]灰鸦, and Elisabeth to a white dove [dʌv]白鸽; the eagle vowed (vow[vau]宣誓,立誓,发誓) vengeance ['vendʒəns]报复; 报仇, 复仇(誓欲报仇) on the grey crow, as soon as一但...就his wings had grown.Tears stood in滞留,积聚(噙着泪水)the young poet's['pəuit]诗人eyes: he felt very proud of himself. When he reached home he contrived(contrive[kən’traiv] 设法做到) to get hold of找到某物以供使用a little parchment- bound(['pɑ:tʃmənt]羊皮纸,[baund]有封面的) volume['vɔljum]书卷with a lotof blank[blæŋk]空白的pages in it; and on the first pages he elaborately [ɪ'læbərətlɪ]精心地wrote out写出his first poem.Soon after this he went to another school. Here he made many new friendships友情,友谊among boys of his own age, but this did not interrupt[.intə'rʌpt]中止,中断,打断his comings and goings来来去去with Elisabeth. Of the stories which he had formerly['fɔ:məli]在过去;以前,从前told her over and over again一遍又一遍地he now began to write down写下; 记下the ones which she had liked best, and in doing so这样做时,在这情况下the fancy['fænsi]想象,幻想often took引领him to weave[wi:v]编入,编成,编纂成in something of有几分; 略微his own thoughts; yet然而, for some reason不知什么原因,不知何故he could not understand, he could never永远都无法manage['mænidʒ]完成,做到,达到it.So he wrote them down写下;记下exactly as正如he had heard them himself. Then he handed them over交给;递给to Elisabeth, who kept them carefully in a drawer[drɔ:(r)]抽屉of her writing-desk写字台, and now and again时而,偶尔,有时of an evening 往往在晚上when he was present在场it afforded(afford[ə'fɔ:d]提供, 给予) him agreeable[ə'gri:əbəl]令人愉快的;惬意的,做法可接受的satisfaction满意,满足to hear her reading aloud to her mother these little tales out of得自the notebooks in which he had written them.Seven years had gone by时光流逝,过去. Reinhard was to准备要做leave the town in order to proceed[prə'si:d]进而做;继续to攻读his higher education. Elisabeth could not bringherself to無法強迫自己做某事,无法使自己做某事think料想; 想像that there would now be a time to be passed消磨;度过;打发entirely[in'taiəli]全部地,全然地without Reinhard. She was delighted[di'laitid]愉快的,欣喜的,快乐的when he told her one day that he would continue to write out stories for her as before依旧; 如故; 如以前; 照旧; he would send them to her in the letters to his mother, and then she would have to write back回信to him and tell him how she liked them. The day of departure[di'pɑ:tʃə]出发,启程;离开was approaching[ə'prəutʃ]接近,临近, but ere [ɛə]在... 之前it came来临,发生a good deal许多more poetry['pəuitri]诗篇, 诗歌, 诗集found its way into找到进入....的路the parchment-bound volume. This was the one secret he kept from把某事瞒着某人Elisabeth, although she herself had inspired(inspire [in’spaiə]启迪;赋予灵感,作为…的为灵感来源;是…的原型) the whole book and most of the songs, which gradually[‘ɡrædjuəli]渐渐地,逐渐地had filled up填满almost将近; 近乎; 几乎,差不多; 快要half of the blank pages.It was the month of June[dʒu:n]六月, and Reinhard was to start启程,动身,出发on the following day第二天;隔日;次日. It was proposed提议; 建议to spend度过one more 再一次festive['festiv]喜庆的,欢乐的day together and therefore因此,为此a picnic野餐活动was arranged(arrange[ə'reindʒ]安排;筹备) for a rather large party of friends in an adjacent[ə’dʒeisənt]邻近的,毗邻的forest.It was an hour's drive一个小时的车程along the road沿路to the edge of the wood, and there the company在一起的一群人 ,交际聚会者took down取下,拿下the provision[prə'viʒən]食物和饮料,供应品baskets from the carriages四轮马车and walked the rest of the way. The road layfirst of all首先through(lie through穿过) a pine[pain]松树grove[grəuv]树丛,小树林;果园(一片松树林), where it was cool and darksome阴暗的, and the ground was all strewed (strew[stru:]撒满,零乱地点缀,散布于) with pine[pain]松树needles(needle['ni:dl]针状物,刺状物)松叶; 松针.After half an hour's walk they passed out of离开the gloom昏暗, 阴暗of the pine trees into a bright fresh beech[bi:tʃ] (fresh beech =Fagus sylvatica欧洲山毛榉,水青冈) wood. Here everything was light采光好的,光线足的and green; every here and there到处,各处,零落散布地a sunbeam ['sʌnbi:m]阳光光束;一道日光burst through推开,拨开the leafy['li:fi]叶茂的,多叶的branches, and high above their heads a squirrel['skwirəl]松鼠was leaping(leap[li:p]跳越,跳过) from branch to branch.The party群,队,组came to a halt[hɔ:lt]停下来; 打住; 停步不前at a certain ['sə:tn]某一spot, over which the topmost最高的;最上面的;顶端的branches of ancient beech trees interwove(interweave ['intə'wi:v]使交织;使混杂) a transparent[træn'sperənt]透明的canopy['kænəpi]树冠层,天篷似的树荫of leaves.

Do you understand what I say?""Yes, yes," cried the young folks."Yes, but look here," said the old gentleman, "I have not done yet.

But ere[eə(r)] long不久he heard Elisabeth behind him calling out叫喊his name. He turned round转身. "Reinhard!" she called, "do wait for me!

Reinhard raised(raise[reiz]把…往上提) Elisabeth in his arms and carried her over. After a while不久,过一会儿; 不一会儿they emerged(emerge[i'mə:dʒ](从隐蔽处或暗处)出现,浮现,露出) from the shady['ʃeidi]成荫的foliage [‘fəuliidʒ]植物的叶子,枝叶and stood in a wide 宽阔的clearing小块空地,林中空地."There must be strawberries here," said the girl, "it all smells so sweet芳香的." They searched about the sunny['sʌni]阳光充足的spot地点, but they found none. "No," said Reinhard, "it is only the smell of带有…气味the heather['heðə]石南花." Everywhere到处,处处,无论什么地方; 四下里was a confusion[kən'fju:ʒən]混乱;杂乱;一团糟of一堆杂乱的raspberry-bushes['rɑ:zbəri]悬钩子,覆盆子,木莓,山莓and holly['hɔli]冬青树, and the air was filled充溢,充斥,弥漫with弥漫着,充满a strong浓烈的,浓重的,浓郁的smell of heather, patches of 成片地which 前面的那些alternated (alternate['ɔ:ltə:neit]交替,轮流,夹杂,相间) with the short grass 短草; 矮草over these open spaces空地."How lonely偏僻的;荒凉的;人迹罕至的it is here!" said Elisabeth "I wonder where the others are?"Reinhard had never thought of getting back回来, 回家."Wait a bit," he said, holding his hand aloft[ə'lɔft]在空中,在头顶上; "where is the wind coming from?" But wind there was none."Listen!" said Elisabeth, "I think I heard them talking. Just give a call喊叫,大声喊in that direction方向."Reinhard hollowed['hɔləu]使成中空his hand and shouted: "Come here来这里; 至此!""Here!" was echoed(echo['ekəu]回响) back发出回声."They answered," cried Elisabeth clapping拍手her hands."No, that was nothing; it was only the echo回音."Elisabeth seized(seize[si:z]抓住) Reinhard's hand. "I'm frightened!" she said."Oh! no, you must not be frightened. It is lovely令人愉快的,美丽的,迷人的here. Sit down there in the shade在荫凉处among the long grass. Let us rest awhile[ə'wail]暂时, 片刻: we'll find the others soon enough非常快地."Elisabeth sat down under the overhanging垂悬物branch树枝of a beech山毛榉and listened intently[in'tentli]专注地;专心地in every direction向四面八方. Reinhard sat a few paces [peis] 步幅off离,距on a tree stump[stʌmp]树墩,树桩, and gazed(gaze) over at her in silence安静地,无声地.The sun was just above their heads, shining(shine) with放光the full最大(强度)的glare[glɛə]刺眼的强光of midday['middei]正午heat日中的炎热. Tiny, gold-flecked[f'lekt]有斑点的;布满斑点的, steel-blue钢青色flies(fly苍蝇) poised(poise[pɔiz]使平衡,使平稳,使..悬着不动) in the air在空中with vibrating(vibrate['vaibreit]振动,颤动) wings. Their ears caught a gentle柔和的,轻声的humming[‘hand buzzing[‘bʌziŋ]嗞嗞声all round四面; 周围them, and far away in the woodʌmiŋ]嗡嗡声were heard now and again时而,偶尔,有时the tap-tap嗒嗒声of the woodpecker['wud.pekə]啄木鸟and the screech [skri:tʃ]尖叫,尖鸣,刺耳的吱吱声of other birds."Listen," said Elisabeth, "I hear a bell钟声.""Where?" asked Reinhard."Behind us. Do you hear it? It is striking(strike敲,鸣,响) twelve o'clock.""Then the town lies位于;坐落在behind us, and if we go straight笔直走through in this direction we are bound[baund] to一定会;必然会;注定会fall in with碰到the others."So they started on开始进行their homeward归家的;还乡的;回国的way; they had given up投降;认输;放弃looking for strawberries, for Elisabeth had become tired. And at last there rang(ring) out发出响声,响起from among the trees the laughing voices of the picnic party野炊聚会; then they saw too还a white cloth spread摊开;铺开gleaming (gleam[gli:m]发微光;隐约闪光;闪烁) on the ground; it was the luncheon-table ['lʌntʃən]午餐会and on it were strawberries enough and to spare绰绰有余,很多,足够.The old gentleman had a table-napkin['næpkin]餐巾tucked(tuck[tʌk]塞进) in hisbutton-hole['bʌtn]纽扣(扣眼)and was continuing his moral['mɔrəl]道德上的,道义上的sermon['sə:mən]布道,讲道,说教,训诫to the young folks and vigorously ['vigərəsli]精神旺盛地carving (carve[kɑ:v]把(熟肉)切成块) a joint[dʒɔint] of一大块roast[rəust]烤,炙;烘meat."Here come the stragglers['stræglə]落伍者;掉队者;落在最后的人," cried the young people when they saw Reinhard and Elisabeth advancing(advance[əd'vɑ:ns]前进,行进) among the trees. "This way这边请," shouted the old gentleman. "Empty倒空your handkerchiefs ['hæŋkətʃif]手帕, upside down颠倒;倒转;翻转with your hats! Now show us what you have found.""Only hunger['hʌŋgə] and thirst[θə:st]," said Reinhard."If that's all," replied the old man, lifting up and showing them the bowl full of盛满fruit, "you must keep what you've got(这里指hunger and thirst). You remember the agreement[ə'gri:mənt]协定, 协议, 契约: nothing here for lazybones['leizi.bəunz]懒鬼,懒骨头to eat." But in the end最后,结果he was prevailed(prevail[pri'veil]) on劝告, 说服to relent[ri'lent]动怜悯心;发慈悲心,变宽容,,变宽厚;变温和;心软; the banquet['bæŋkwit]筵席,宴会,盛宴proceeded(proceed[prə'si:d]开始行动,继续进行), and a thrush[θrʌʃ]画眉鸟,歌鸫in a juniper[‘dʒu:nipə]杜松;刺柏bush刺柏丛,铅笔柏provided(provide[prə'vaid]供给;提供;给予) the music.So the day passed. But Reinhard had, after all毕竟; 究竟; 归根结底, found something, and though it was not strawberries yet然而,但是it was something that had grown in the wood. When he got home this is what he wrote in his old parchment- bound volume:Out在外,在远处on the hill-side山坡;山腰yonder['jɔndə]在那边,The wind to rest is laid(be laid to rest安息); Under the drooping下垂的branches ,There sits the little maid[meid]少女.

Before the close结束of the afternoon Reinhard and some other students were sitting together at an old oak table in the Rathskeller [‘rɑ:tskelə]地窖餐厅. (Footnote: The basement['beismənt]地下室of the Rathaus [‘rɑ:thaus]市议会厅,镇议会厅or Town Hall市政厅.
