而娴熟的木匠就不这么干。
他每敲一下都会坚实巧妙地正对着钉头落下去,一钉到底。
语言也是如此。
一位优秀的艺术家谴词造句上力求准确而有力地表达自己的观点。
差不多的词,不准确的短语,摸棱两可的表达,含糊不清的修饰,都无法使一位追求纯真英语的作家满意。
他会一直思考,直至找到那个能准确表达他的意思的词。
The French have an apt(贴切的) phrase for this. They speak of “le mot juste,”法国人有一个很贴切的短语来表达这样一个意思,即“le mot juste”, 恰到好处的词。
有很多关于精益求精的作家的名人轶事,比如福楼拜常花几天的时间力求使一两个句子在表达上准确无误。

What’s Alvin Toffler’s attitude towards t he throw-away society?He thinks that the throw-away habit is one of the features of developed country.7.Do you know Alvin Toffler? Have you read Toffler’s Future Shock?8.Tell as many disposable things as possible.For eating –distilled water, beer, or soft drink bottles or cans, Coca-Cola cups, non-returnable chopsticks, fast-food boxes, cardboard soft drink containers,…For daily use – tissue, one-time-use plastic / paper bags, napkins, …For wearing – paper clothes (pants, pajamas, gowns, coats, wedding-dress)…In-reading discussion:Paras.1-6Paras. 1 - 31. T. begins with an example of Barbie doll. What is a Barbie doll like? Do you like it?It is a twelve-inch plastic teenager with big round eyes, long eyelashes, curly long hair, a twist-and-turn-waist, wearing beautiful long skirt. It is highly realistic, humanoid and adored especially by little girls. The reason why Barbie doll appeals so much to little girls is that she looks like a real person in real life who can be dressed up in the way they wish. (Little girls adore Barbie because she is highly realistic and eminently dress-upable.)(LW7-1) Dress-upable = dress-up + able = that can be dressed up2.Scan the 1st two paras. For the information on Barbie dolls and tell what you know aboutthem.The year when it came into the world: 1959Its population: 12,000,000, more than the human population of Los Angels or London or Paris. Matel, Inc.’s Barbie doll is the best-known and best-selling doll in the world.The manufacturer: Mattel, Inc. Not only selling dolls, but also some accessory products as Barbie’s clothes including ordinary day-time wear, formal party wear, swimming wear, and skiiing wear.New way of sale: trade in the old Barbie for a technologically improved model. I.e. to turn back or turn in to the shop the old one and pay less when buying a new one. Mattel made public that, for the first time, all girls desirous of buying a Barbie from its company were to be given the right of turning in their old dolls in exchange for new models at a reduced price. (Moreover, Mattel announced that, for the first time, any young lady wishing to purchase a new Barbie would receive a trade-in allowance for her old one.) (LW7-2)trade-in allowance = the sum of money given to the customer who turns in the old object in exchange for the new one. / the amount of money a shop deducts from the price of a new thing which a customer buys when he turns in to the shop an old thing. (note 1) trade in sth old for sth new = turn in the old for the new by paying less3. What’s the function of the Barbie doll example at the beginning of the essay? (Why is this not an isolated example?) (comp.3-1)It is used to introduce and illustrate the thesis, which occurs at the end of the thirdparagraph: man’s relationships with things are increasingly temporary.In the first three paras. T gives the example of the Barbie doll, which leads to the initial presentation of his thesis, i.e., man-thing relationships are increasingly temporary. (Org. & Devl.)This is not an isolated example for two reasons:a. The thesis it illustrates is repeatedly illustrated and supported by more examples in the rest of the essay.b.The little girl who trades in her Barbie doll is referred to again in the 7th paragraph. Para.41. Which are more in numbers, man-made objects or natural ones in the sentence The ocean of man-made physical objects that surrounds us is set within a larger ocean of natural objects. (note 2) But increasingly, it is the technologically produced environment that matters for the individual. (LW7-3)There are many more natural objects than man-made physical objects.The word ‘ocean’ is used to mean ‘large quantities’. (comp.3-2)But more and more, man-made products form a very important part in the lives of people.2. The texture of plastic or concrete, the iridescent glisten of an automobile under a streetlight, the staggering vision of a cityscape seen from the window of a jet - these are the intimate realities of his existence.a. texture = the degree of roughness or smoothness, coarseness or fineness, of a substance or material, esp. as felt by touch; visual and tactile qualities of a surfacee.g. The texture of the textile is too loose / very close.b. glisten = shine (more generic)c. staggering = stunning, wondrous, breathtakingd. cityscape< -scape: scenery, cityscape, landscape, snowscape, ...e. How do you understand the phrase intimate realities of his existence? (comp.3-3)Things that are closest and most immediate to his life.Everywhere is viewed plastic objects (things most often used in daily life as kitchen vessels, clothes-hanger, wardrobe, etc.), the concrete buildings, the automobiles, the streetlights, you can see all these intimate realities(things closely related to people’s life) from the window of a jet, or when standing at the top or higher floor of a skyscraper.3. Paraphrase Man-made things enter into and color his consciousness.(LW7-4)Their number is expanding with explosive force, both absolutely and relative to the natural environment. (LW7 - 5)Technologically produced things come to be accepted by people and are beginning to shape their mentality.There has been a tremendous increase in machine-produced things in terms of their actual amount as well as their physical size in proportion to our natural environment. Their number skyrockets / increases at rapid speed, which is faster than that of the growth of the natural environment.4. What does the last sentence in Para.4 imply: This will be even more true in super-industrial society than it is today.?It implies that the expanding number of man-made objects is typical of a highly industrialized society.The thesis as stated in the previous para. Is that man-thing relationships are more and more transient. Now in this para., T. Tries to tell us that we are surrounded by a large ocean of man-made physical objects. They play an important role in our life.Para. 51.But Anti-materialists tend to deride the importance of things.Anti-materialists devalue / despise material wealth.2. Does Toffler agree or disagree with anti-materialists? Why or why not?He doesn’t agree with anti-materialists. He thinks that things are highly significant, having two functions: functional utility and psychological impact.3. How do you interpret these two functions?functional utility: Things can be utilized widely in daily life and in all walks of life to serve and help people in some way. Human beings depend high ly on materials. They can’t live without getting into any connection with things. We develop relationships with things.psychological impact: Materials also have strong impact on people’s mentality. Things affect our sense of continuity or discontinuity (continue using the same thing or stop using it / throw it away).The thoughts, the attitudes, or the value judgements of those who possess a good wealth of materials are quite different from those poor in physical objects. e.g. the throw-away habit ...So things are important with these two functions. They provide us with a kind of living situation or condition of material wealth. The temporary relationships between man andthing quicken our pace of life. (ll28-9)Para.61. Moreover, our attitudes toward things reflect basic value judgments.As stated in the previous paragraph, people with rich materials have different attitude toward things from those with little materials. These different attitudes result in different value judgments.This sentence is the topic sentence, which is developed by showing a contrast on the ways in which little girls and their elder generations deal with Barbies.2. What are the different ways in which little girls and their elder generations deal with Barbies?i.e. Paraphrase Nothing could be more dramatic than the difference between the new breed of little girl who cheerfully turn in their Barbies for the new improved model and those who, like their mothers and grandmothers before them, clutch lingeringly and lovingly to the same doll until it disintegrates from sheer age. (LW7-6)Little girls would like to turn in their Barbies for the new improved model. They are delightd in replacing their out-of-date Barbies for up-to-date ones, while their mothers and grandmothers would clutch lingeringly and lovingly to the same doll until it disintegrates from sheer age. They are reluctant to part with their dear little dolls until they are timeworn and broken / until they fall apart because of long-time use.The elder generation would like to keep all the old and sometimes worn-out things in their house. When moving, not throw them away, so a pile / mount / mass of useless things in the house.This difference seems most noticeable between the modern throw-away-oriented girls and their old-fashioned counterparts. This is a contrast between past and future, between permanence and transience.Another section entitled THE PAPER WEDDING GOWN1.What is this section about?To illustrate the thesis by examining the culture surrounding the little girl who trades in her Doll, which is shown in the 1st sentence – the topic sentence.2.What is the throw-away culture surrounding us in modern society? Or, what are thedisposable things often used in our life?We are living in a throw-away culture in which physical objects pass into and out of our life at a rapid clip. We have one-time-use …, throw-away …, non-returnable …, disposable …, (Diapers, bibs, paper napkins, Kleenex, towels, non-returnable soda bottles, baking tins for corn muffins, plastic sacks for heating spinach, throw-away trays, Coca-Cola cups, non-returnable chopsticks, fast-food lunch boxes, paper handkerchiefs (tissues), disposable cigarette lighters, cardboard milk containers, cardboard soft drink containers, one-time-use toothbrush and toothpaste in hotels, paper apparels / clothes, ...)Our home seems like a large processing machine through which objects flow, entering and leaving, at a faster and faster rate of speed.This long list of throw-away objects for daily use shows the throw-away culture in which the younger generation are embedded.3.Paraphrase the first sentence The idea of using a product once or for a brief period andthen replacing it, runs counter to the grain of societies or individuals steeped in a heritage of poverty.(LW7-7)The practice whereby people use a product and then quickly discard it may readily be rejected by those accustomed by scarcity to holding on to their old possessions.The poverty-stricken people would like to keep things rather than discard them. So the idea of using a product once or for a brief period and then replacing it goes against the idea and practice of the poor people.4. What’s the topic sentence of the 8th paragraph? Is it adequately develop ed by the evidence that follows in the paragraph? (comp. 3-5)The first sentence acts as the topic sentence, developed by the example of French housewives in their attitude towards an ad on a kind of plastic throw-away curtain. They resist this throw-away product strongly.It is not adequately developed. While the French can be regarded as a nation disposed to keeping things, even old things, they are not typically a nation steeped in a heritage of poverty. Therefore, the topic sentence is only partially developed.5. What does the last sentence in the 8th para. imply: This resistance, however, is dying all over the developed world.It indicates that the more developed the society, the less the resistance to throw away things. The more developed society, the more throw-away things. So the development ofthe throw-away culture is entailed by industrialization. (comp.3-6)6. Examples of other industrialized countries in which the throw-away culture has been gradually fostered since the late 50’s are given in para. 9.French housewives refused to use plastic throw-away curtain, but now in France, disposable cigarette lighters are commonplace.In Sweden, there were no beer and soft drink bottles by the roadsides, but by the 60’s, bottles were blooming / scattering along the highways.In Japan today, throw-away tissues are so universal that cloth handkerchiefs are regarded as old fashioned, not to say unsanitary.In England the throw-away / one-time-use toothbrushes coated with toothpaste are very popular and cheap to purchase, costing sixpence only.In this Para. the US and Sweden are contrasted to show how the latter was transformed into a throw-away society in the late 50’s, so are France in the past and France nowadays.7.Paras.10-12 give the example of the introduction of paper clothes products to showpeople’s psychological need for throw-away things and the trend to maintain a transient relationship between man and man-made objects.Gaily colored and imaginatively designed paper apparel, breathtakingly sumptuous gowns, coats, pajamas, even wedding dresses with a long white train of lace-like paper, … These paper clothes can be used as curtains after one-time use, or thrown away if spilled with ice cream, or drawn pictures on, made cutouts on, etc. In addition to the conveniences, they are also cheap / economic in price, cheaper for the consumer to buy and discard a new one than to send an ordinary dress to the cleaners. These two are not the only reasons for the extension of throw-away culture. The throw-away mentality is another important factor that has given rise to the profusion of paper clothes products in the market. (comp. 3-9) For psychological satisfaction, people like to buy and use things which they can throw away after using them only once or for a brief period of time. (But more than economics is involved, for the extension of the throw-away culture has important psychological consequences.)8. cleanly = adj. having clean habits cf. clean = adj. not dirtyblooming = (figuratively used to show the meaning of ) increasedentamatic =(maybe a blend word) dental + automatic e.g. Singtel = S’pore telecom ...9. Fashionable boutiques and working-class clothing stores have sprouted whole departments devoted to gaily colored and imaginatively designed paper apparel.a. Why does Toffler make mention of both fashionable boutiques and working-class clothing stores?(comp.3 - 7)To show the widely-based acceptance of paper clothes in the US.b. sprout:figuratively usedc. devoted to = (here) selling10. Thus a department store features simple A-line dresses made of what it calls ‘devil-may-care cellulose fiber and nylon’.feature = have the feature of, (here) like to selldevil-may-care (materials) = materials so fashionable that even the devils will care or noticeMaybe fiber and nylon are very cheap clothing materials so they cost less than others. 11. What does the incomplete sentence Soon it will be. mean? (comp.3-8)Soon it will be cheaper for the customer to buy and discard a new one than to send an ordinary dress to the cleaners.12. What’s the function of the last paragraph?ConclusionWe develop a throw-away mentality to match our throw-away products, because throw-away products have psychological impact on people. Materials and spirits are closely related, with the former deciding the latter.This mentality produces a set of radically altered values with respect to property, as stated in Para.6: our attitudes toward things reflect basic value judgments.But the spread of disposability through the society also implies decreased duration in man-thing relationships, which is a restatement of the thesis: man-thing relationships are temporary.Instead of being linked with a single object over a relatively long span of time, we are linked for brief periods with the succession of objects that supplant it. This is another way to state out the thesis.Analysis - The thesis1. What do you define the thesis?The thesis, the main idea or controlling idea, tells what you are trying to demonstrate or prove, that is, what the essay is all about.2. Where can we position the thesis in an essay?End-position as well as mid-position is just as common as pre-position.3. How can we make thesis transparent?To present the thesis clearly, to place the thesis properly, to repeat the thesis frequently.Text 2THE DO-IT-YOURSELFERSAlvin TofflerQuestions1.What is the meaning of ‘do-it-yourselfers’?Do it yourself (abbr. DIY): activity of constructing, repairing or decorating things oneself rather than employing professional workers to do it.do-it-yourselfer:2.What are the examples given in the text? Tell them in your own words.--- AT & T: callers to direct-dial their long distance calls and overseas calls by punching in the appropriate numbers (para. 1)--- self-service fuel pumps (filling / gas station): motorists to put the fuel hose into the car radiator and pump their own gas (paras. 2 & 3)--- electronic banking: customers to deposit and withdraw their money themselves in AMT (Automatic Money Teller) found everywhere in the streets, in shopping centers, in universities, etc. Just insert your card into the slot and give your password by tying the buttons. Once you enter the computer system, do as instructed in the screen. (para. 4)--- self-service supermarket: customers to push the shopping cart, search for what they like, load them into the cart, and pay at the cashier. You don’t have to buy one thing in this counter and pay it, then buy another in another counter and pay again. (para. 5)--- discount store: customers to choose the things they like by themselves in all the stands. They have to work harder in searching, for the products are not put in good order, just in a mess.--- shoe store: customers to choose and try on the shoes they like one pair after another. (para. 6)--- the Cool-Line (800 telephone number): customers to call the manufacturer for service problem free of charge. Dial the number, and the service field man at the other end wouldexplain to you what to do / how to repair through telephone. The future system of maintenance will be more convenient and easier to follow, displaying instructions of how to fix it yourself step by step on your TV screen as the adviser speaks. (paras. 8-11)3.What is the point Toffler aims to illustrate with the rich supply of examples?The point he makes in the last para.: self-service is a widespread pattern that cuts across many industries.4.What causes of self-service can be inferred from the examples given? Can you think ofany other causes?Reducing pressure caused by increasing consumption, reducing cost on the part of producers / suppliers.5. In primitive society it was often the case that the producer of a product and the consumer were the same one person. Can we thus regard the ever-spreading ‘do-it-yourself’ phenomenon as an indication of some kind of social regression?Probably not.The externalization discussed in this essay is based on the mass-production characteristic of modern society, unthinkable in primitive society. To whatever extent the consumer might become the prosumer, he is basically a consumer, never a producer.6. How do you like the increasing involvement of customers in tasks formerly performed for him by others?7. Discuss the process of increasing ‘externalizing labor cost’ in the Chinese background.8.

His writing is marked by exactness and accuracy of observation, extreme impersonality and objectivity of treatment, and precision and expressiveness in style, or the principle of the mot juste.•1. 2) Mrs. Malaprop is a famous character in Sheridan’s comedy The Rivals(1775). She is noted for her blunders in the use of words. ―As headstrong(不受管束的)as an allegory(比方;寓言)(alligator) on the banks of the Nile‖ is one of her grotesque(荒唐的)misapplications. She also requests that no delusions(欺骗;迷惑)(allusions) to the past be made. She has given us the word malapropism(用词错误,尤指误用发音相似而意义全非的词)as a name for such mistakes. •2.

It sounds irrational that a person does not know what he himself thinks before he sees what he says. But as a matter of fact, it is quite true that unless we have found the exact words to verbalize our own thoughts we can never be very sure of what our thoughts are; without words, our thoughts cannot be defined or stated in a clear and precise manner.4. “Malapropism” means the unintentional misuse of a word by confusing it with one that resembles it, such as human for humane, singularity for singleness. But the misuse of “imprison” is a different case. It is wronglychosen because the user has failed to recognize its connotation.5. human=of, characterizing, or relating to manhumane=characterized by kindness, mercy, sympathyThus: human action=action taken by man; humane action=merciful action; human killer=person that kills humans ; humane killer=that which kills but causes little pain6. sensitive, alert7. Those are words denoting notions which are existent only in specific culture, not universally shared by all cultures. English words difficult to be turned into Chinese: privacy, party, lobby (v.), etc. Chinese words difficult to be turned into English: 吹风会,粽子,五保户,etc.8. “We don’t have to look far afield to find evidence of bad carpentry.”“It is perhaps easier to be a good craftsman with wood and nails than a good craftsman with word s.”“A good carpenter is not distinguished by the number of his tools, but by the craftsmanship with which he uses them.

Unit 1恰到好处你一个笨手笨脚的男人往箱子上子?只他左敲敲,右敲敲,不准会将整个子翻,果敲来敲去到来只敲了半截。
而熟的木匠就不么干。
他每敲一下都会巧妙地正着落下去,一到底。
言也是如此。
一位秀的家造句上力求准确而有力地表达自己的点。
差不多的,不准确的短,摸棱两可的表达,含糊不清的修,都无法使一位追求真英的作家意。
他会一直思考,直至找到那个能准确表达他的意思的。
法国人有一个很切的短来表达一个意思,即“ le mot juste”, 恰到好的。
有很多关于精益求精的作家的名人事,比如福楼拜常花几天的力求使一两个句子在表达上准确无。
在浩瀚的海中,与之有着微妙的区,要找到能恰如其分表达我意思的非易事。
不是扎的言功底和相当大的量的,需要人尽汁,要察敏。
是程的一个步,也是描述我的思想感情并表达出来使自己以及听众和者深刻理解的一个。
有人:“在我思想未成文之前,我怎么知道自己的想法?” 听起来似乎很离,但它确很有道理。
找恰如其分的的确是件不容易的事。
一旦找到了那个,我就会感到很欣慰:辛得到了回。
准确地用言有助于我深入了解我描述的事物。
例如,当有人你:“某某是怎么的人?”你回答:“恩,我想他是个不的家伙,但他非常⋯⋯”接着你犹豫了,找到一个或短来明他到底在哪里。
当你找到一个恰当的短的候,你自己他的看法更清楚,也更精确了。
一些英根相同而意却截然不同。
例如human 和 humane, 二者的根相同,也相关,但用法完全不同。
“human action (人行 ) ”和“ humane action( 人道行 ) ”完全是两事。
我不能“人道力宣言”,而是“人宣言”。
有一种屠工具叫“ humane killer (麻醉屠宰机 ) ,而不是 human killer (人机器 ) 。
言中的坏手的例子在我身随可。
有人邀一名学生去吃,他写信予回复。
看他的信是尾的:“我将很高赴并不安(anxiety)期待着那个日子的到来。
”“ Anxiety ”含有和恐惧的意味。
