Unit 5 The Day Mother Cried课文翻译大学英语三
Unit 5 The Day Mother CriedGerald MooreA mother and her son learn more form a moment of defeat than they ever could from a victory. Her example of never giving up gives him courage for the rest of his life.Coming home from school that dark winter's day so long ago, I was filled with anticipation. I had a new issue of my favorite sports magazine tucked under my arm, and the house to myself. Dad was at work, my sister was away, and Mother wouldn't be home from her new job for an hour. I bounded up the steps, burst into the living room and flipped on a light.I was shocked into stillness by what I saw. Mother, pulled into a tight ball with her face in her hands, sat at the far end of the couch. She was crying. I had never seen her cry.I approached cautiously and touched her shoulder. "Mother?" I said "What's happened?" She took a long breath and managed a weak smile. "It's nothing, really. Nothing important. Just than I'm going to lose this new job. I can't type fast enough.""But you've only been there three days," I said. "You'll catch on." I was repeating a line she had spoken to me a hundred times when I was having trouble learning or doing something important to me."No." she said sadly. "I always said I could do anything I set my mind to, and I still think I can in most things. But I can't do this."I felt helpless and out of place. At age 16 I still assumed Mother could do anything. Some years before, when we sold our ranch and moved to town, Mother had decided to open a day nursery. She had had no training, but that didn't stand in her way. She sent away for correspondence courses in child care, did the lessons and in six months formally qualified herself for the task. It wasn't long before she had a full enrollment and a waiting list. I accepted all this as a perfectly normal instance of Mother's ability.But neither the nursery nor the motel my parents bought later had provided enough income to send my sister and me to college. In two years I would be ready for college. In three more my sister would want to go. Time was running out, and Mother was frantic for ways to save money. It was clear that Dad could do no more than he was doing already——farming 80 acres in addition to holding a fulltime job.A few months after we'd sold the motel, Mother arrived home with a use typewriter. It skipped between certain letters and the keyboard was soft. At dinner that night I pronounced the machine a "piece of junk.""That's all we can afford," mother said. "It's good enough to learn on." And from that day on, as soon as the table was cleared and the dishes were done, Mother would disappear into her sewing room to practice. The slow tap, tap, tap went on some nights until midnight.It was nearly Christmas when I heard Mother got a job at the radio station. I was not the least bit surprised, or impressed. But she was ecstatic.Monday, after her first day at work, I could see that the excitement was gone. Mother looked tired and drawn. I responded by ignoring her.Tuesday, Dad made dinner and cleaned the kitchen. Mother stayed in her sewing room, practicing. "Is Mother all right?" I asked Dad."She's having a little trouble with her typing," he said. "She needs to practice. I think she'd appreciate it if we all helped out a bit more.""I already do a lot," I said, immediately on guard."I know you do," Dad said evenly. "And you may have to do more. You might just remember that she is working primarily so you can go to college."I honestly didn't care. I wished she would just forget the whole thing.My shock and embarrassment at finding Mother in tears on Wednesday was a perfect index of how little I understood the pressures on her. Sitting beside her on the couch, I began very slowly to understand."I guess we al have to fail sometime," Mother said quietly. I could sense her pain and the tension of holding back the strong emotions that were interrupted by my arrival. Suddenly, something inside me turned. I reached out and put my arms around her.She broke then. She put her face against my shoulder and sobbed. I help her close and didn't try to talk. I knew I was doing what I should, what I could, and that it was enough. In that moment, feeling Mother's back racked with emotion, I understood for the first time her vulnerability. She was still my mother, but she was something more: a person like me, capable of fear and hurt and failure. I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions when I had sought comfort in her arms.A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station had offered. "It's a job I can do," she said simply. But the evening practice sessions on the old green typewriter continued. I had a very different feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her tapping away. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.When I left for college two years later, Mother had an office job with better pay and more responsibility. I have to believe that in some strange way she learned as much fromher moment of defeat as I did, because several years later, when I had finished school and proudly accepted a job as a newspaper reporter, she had already been a journalist with our hometown paper for six months.The old green typewriter sits in my office now, unrepaired. It is a memento, but what it recalls for me is not quite what if recalled for Mother. When I'm having trouble with a story and think about giving up or when I start to feel sorry for myself and think things should be easier for me, I roll a piece of paper into that cranky old machine and type, word by painful word, just the way mother did. What I remember then is not her failure, but her courage, the courage to go ahead.It's the best memento anyone ever gave me.妈妈哭泣的那一天很久以前一个昏暗的冬日，我放学回家时从满了期望。

Unit 5 The New Parent Trap每年，我们许多人把我们的婚姻更美好生活的一页。
我们这样做了充满希望，走出了一条美国乐观：它会比这更好。
通常，它是。
我们都知道的人谁给不幸的婚姻，找到自己或其他合作伙伴甚至更幸福。
但是，我们不喜欢看离婚的后果。
这部分是太痛苦了。
每过一段时间，尽管在表面的文化的东西，抓住我们的衣领。
我1977年的小说，克莱默主场迎战克莱默，和奥斯卡奖获奖影片，就是这样改编，似乎这样做的人，带回家影响家庭生活的困扰的离婚。
这个题目也审议辩论）的书，几年前在罚款（和非常意外的遗产，离婚由朱学沃勒斯坦，朱莉娅路易斯和桑德拉布莱克斯利米。
总的来说，虽然离婚是不是真的在我们的雷达屏幕上。
或多或少恰好今天在美国生活。
我们翻开新的一页。
我们继续前进。
几年以前，在一个大学的社会学课程，我记得得知在结束第一次婚姻的离婚数字是百分之二十五的工作。
今天，来自美国人口普查局中常用的数字是百分之五十。
对于国家卫生统计中心，略带采取更有利的物质（和稍微不同的方法），说百分之43。
无论哪种方式，这些数字是惊人的。
大约1亿到大约1亿离婚下的孩子成为离婚的18岁以下儿童每年转换。
奇怪的是，有没有危机感的民族。
即使是离婚语言已经消毒。
请记住这个词“破碎的家庭，”这意味着损害？这几乎已经消失的文化。
在我的新小说，一个完美的离婚，好心的父母对一个十几岁的男孩-出于美国的乐观和否定好位-认为他们可以管理一个智能离婚，并保持相对的儿子为他们的痛苦。
但是，在他大学一年级，汤米伯罗斯失去他的去路。
他掉出来，从工作到工作反弹。
他的情感过山车乘坐会影响所有两岸人民的生命- 他的朋友，祖父母，雇主。
汤米的父母，罗布和Karen，就像谁相信，如果你对你的孩子爱，分手就比较顺利的许多其他问题。
在我看来，这是伟大的美国神话的完美离婚。
拉里沙利文，纽约心理医生，已经工作了30年以上的已婚夫妇，单身，离婚夫妇和离婚的孩子。
“当然是有一个神话的土地，”他说。

大学英语精读第3册第5课课文翻译及课后答案课文翻译妈妈哭的那天很久前一个阴暗的冬天，我放学回家，心中充满着期待。
我腋下夹着一本我所喜爱的刚出版的体育杂志，而且整个房子将只有我一个人。
爸爸还没下班，妹妹不在家，妈妈刚找到一份新工作，在一小时内是不会回家的，我跳上台阶，冲进起居室，啪的一声打开电灯。
我眼前出现的景象使我惊呆了。
妈妈紧缩着身子。
手捂着脸，坐在沙发的一端，她在哭。
我以前从没见她哭过。
我小心地走近她，把手放在她肩上。
“妈”我说，“怎么了？”妈妈长叹一口气，强作微笑。
“没什么，真的。
没什么大不了的事。
只是我要失去这份新工作了。
我字打的不够快。
”“但你才上三天班，”我说，“你会赶上的。
”我重复了妈妈对我说过的一百遍的那句话。
每当我学什么或做什么重要事情而遇到麻烦时，妈常这样对我说。
“不行了，”妈妈神色黯淡地对我说。
“过去我常说只要我下决心，什么事我都能干好。
现在我仍然认为在多数情况下我能做到。
但是，打字这事我做不到啦。
”我无能为力，十分尴尬。
那时我16岁，仍然认为妈妈能做任何事。
几年前，当我们卖掉农场，搬到城里来住的时候，妈妈决定开一所日托所。
她没受过这方面的训练，但这并不妨碍她。
她参加幼托函授课学习，做练习，六个月后就正式获得从事这项工作的资格了。
不久后，她不但招满了生，而且还有许多孩子等着注册。
我认为这是理所当然的，是妈妈能力的体现。
但是不管是日托所还是后来爸妈买的汽车旅馆都无法提供足够的钱送我和妹妹上大学。
两年后我就要准备上大学了。
再过三年，妹妹也想上大学。
时间过得真快。
妈妈想尽了一切方法存钱。
很明显，爸爸不可能比他现在干得更多---除了一份全日制工作外，还要耕种80英亩地。
在我们卖掉汽车旅馆几个月后，妈弄回家一台旧式打字机。
这台打字机跳字，键盘也很松。
那天吃饭时，我说这台打字是“废物一件”。
“我们只买得起这个,”妈妈说。
“这对练打字是够好的了。
”从那天开始，只要桌子一收拾，碗一洗，妈妈就会消失到她的缝纫房里练习打字。

大学英语精读第三册翻译Unit 1 A Brush with the Law一个青年发现，在大街上毫无明显目的地游逛会招致警方的责罚。
误会一个接一个发生，最终他只得出庭受审……与警察的一场小冲突我平生只有一次跟警方发生纠葛。
被捕和出庭的整个过程在当时是一件非常不愉快的事，但现在倒成了一篇很好的故事。
这次经历令人可恼之处在于围绕着我的被捕以及随后庭上审讯而出现的种种武断专横的情况。
事情发生在大约12年前，其时正是2月。
几个月前我中学毕业了，但上大学要等到10月。
当时我还在家中居住。
一天早晨，我来到里士满。
这里是伦敦的一个郊区，离我住的地方不远。
我在寻找一份临时工作，以便积些钱去旅游。
由于天气晴朗，当时又无急事，我便慢悠悠看看橱窗，逛逛公园。
有时干脆停下脚步，四处张望。
现在看来，一定是这种明显的毫无目的的游逛，使我倒了霉。
事情发生在11点半钟光景。
我在当地图书馆谋职未成，刚刚走出来，便看到一个人穿越马路，显然是要来跟我说话。
我以为他要问我时间，不料他说他是警官，要逮捕我。
起先我还以为这是在开玩笑，但又一个警察出现在我的面前，这次是位身着警服的，这一下使我确信无疑了。
“为什么要抓我?”我问道。
“到处游荡，企图作案，”他说。
“作什么案?”我又问。
“偷窃，”他说。
“偷什么?”我追问。
“牛奶瓶，”他板着面孔说道。
“噢，”我说。
事情原来是这样的，在这一地区屡次发生小的扒窃案，特别是从门前台阶上偷走牛奶瓶。
接着，我犯了一个大错误。
其时我年方19，留一头蓬乱的长发，自认为是60年代“青年反主流文化”的一员。
所以我想装出一副冷漠的、对这一事件满不在乎的样子。
于是我尽量用一种漫不经心的极其随便的腔调说，“你们跟踪我多久啦?”这样一来，在他们眼里，我就像是非常熟悉这一套的了，也使他们更加确信我是一个地地道道的坏蛋。
几分钟后，开来了一辆警车。
“坐到后面去，”他们说。
“把手放到前排座位的靠背上，不准挪动。
”他们分别坐在我的两边。

Alex Haley served in the Coast Guard during World War ll. On an especially lonely day to be at sea -- Thanksgiving Day -- he began to give serious thought to a holiday that has become, for many Americans, a day of overeating and watching endless games of football. Haley decided to celebrate the true meaning of Thanksgiving by writing three very special letters.亚历克斯·黑利二战时在海岸警卫队服役。
出海在外，时逢一个倍感孤寂的日子――感恩节，他开始认真思考起这一节日的意义。
对许多美国人而言，这个节日已成为大吃大喝、没完没了地看橄榄球比赛的日子。
黑利决定写三封不同寻常的信，以此来纪念感恩节的真正意义。

新视野大学英语第三版读写教程第三册Unit5A课文翻译
Will you be a worker or a laborer?你想做工作者还是劳役者？To be truly happy, a person must feel both free andimportant. People are never happy if they feel compelled by society to do work they do not enjoy, orif what they do enjoy is ignored by society a s havingno value or importance. In a society where slavery inthe strict sense has been abolished, the social indications around work, the value of work and thesalary, have degraded many laborers into modernslaves - "wage slaves".一个人要想真正快乐，必须觉得自己既自由又重要。
如果觉得自己是受社会逼迫而做自己不喜欢的工作，或者自己喜欢的工作被认为没价值或不重要而遭社会忽视，那他绝不会快乐。
在一个奴隶制度严格说来已经被废除的社会里，工作的社会含义、工作的价值和薪水，已经把许多劳役者降格为现代奴隶——“薪奴”。
People are considered laborers if their job has an adverse effect on them, yet they feelcompelled to continue working by the necessity of conforming to societal expectations andearning the reve nue to support themselves and their families. The polar opposite of labor is play.When we play a game, we enjoy what we are doing, but it is a purely private pastime; societydoes not care when or whether we play.如果人们的工作对自己有负面的影响，但为了遵从社会的期望或者挣钱养家糊口而被迫必须继续工作，那么他们就被认为是劳役者。

9 然而，年轻男子却在琳赛对面的位子上坐了下来，自我介绍说是约翰尼，并开始毫不避讳地跟她谈论起自己的感受以及他与萨拉的恋情，这激起了琳赛的兴趣。而他也提到 了那些抢劫案，说四起案件中有三起是萨拉和他一起干的。他说，萨拉一点也没害怕，她甚至觉得这事很刺激。他给她看了一些照片，那是萨拉住在波特兰的时候和他在公寓 里拍的合影。琳赛注意到在他们谈话的大部分时间里，他都在摆弄外套上的拉链。接下来，她和约翰尼就像素未谋面一样分手了。而琳赛也明白了为什么萨拉在这里呆了那么 久，因为和她们波澜不兴的家乡丘奇兰德相比，这里的确很美丽。
10 当天晚些时候，琳赛回到了宾馆收拾行李，准备第二天上午回丘奇兰德。她急着回家，因为她已经找到了证据，结束了调查。第二天，她打电话给妈妈讲述了这次旅程的细节；然而，从妈妈的口气中，她感觉妈妈似乎在隐瞒着什么。次日一早，琳赛来到警察局，打算和办理四年前那个案子的警察谈 话。她被带进一个昏暗的小房间，里面有两个警探。于是，她急急慌慌地讲述了起来，并且手里拿着一些记录作为佐证。看到琳赛为洗脱嫌疑投入了如此多的时间、精力和金 钱，两位警探对此甚为好奇。

Instead, he said he was a police officer and he was arresting me. 我以为他要问我时间,不料他说他是警官,要逮捕我.At first I thought it was some kind of joke. But then another policeman appeared, this time in uniform, and I was left in nodoubt. 起先我还以为这是在开玩笑,但又一个警察出现在我的面前,这次是位身着警服的,这一下使我确信无疑了. But what for?

But he was never called on to give evidence. My trial didn t get that far. 但结果法庭没有叫他作证.我的〝审判〞没有进行到那一步.The magistrate dismissed the case after fifteen minutes. 开庭_分钟,法官就驳回了对我的指控.I was free. The poor police had never stood a chance. 我无罪获释.可怜的警方一点儿赢的机会都没有.The solicitor even succeeded in getting costs awarded against the police. 我的律师甚至让法庭责成警方承担了诉讼费用.And so I do not have a criminal record. 这样,我的履历上没有留下犯罪的记录.But what was most shocking at the time was the things my release from the charge so clearly depended on. 但当时最令人震惊的,是那些显然导致宣布我无罪的证据.I had the right accent, respectable middle-class parents in court, reliable witnesses, and I could obviously afford a very good solicitor. 我讲话的口音〝表明我教养良好〞,到庭的有体面的中产阶级的双亲,有可靠的证人,还有,我显然请得起一名很好的律师.Given the obscure nature of the charge, I feel sure that if I had come from a different background, and had really been unemployed, there is every chance that I would have been found guilty. 从对我指控的这种捕风捉影的做法来看,我肯定,如果我出身在另一种背景的家庭里,并且真的是失了业的话,我完全可能被判有罪.While asking for costs to be awarded, my solicitor s case quite obviously revolved around the fact that I had a brilliant academic record . 当我的律师要求赔偿诉讼费时,他公然把辩护的证据建立在我〝学业优异〞这一事实上.Meanwhile, just outside the courtroom, one of the policemen who had arrested me was gloomily complaining to my mother that another youngster had been turned against the police. 与此同时,就在审判室外面,一位抓我的警察正在沮丧地向我母亲抱怨,说是又一个小伙子要跟警察作对了.You could have been a bit more helpful when we arrested you, he said to me reproachfully. 他带着责备的口气对我说,〝我们抓你的时候,你本可以稍微帮点忙的.〞What did he mean? 他说这话什么意思?Presumably that I should have looked outraged and said something like, Look here, do you know who you re talking to? I am a highly successful student with a brilliant academic record. How dare you arrest me! 大概是说我本该显出愤愤不平的样子,并说,〝喂,留神点,你知道你在跟谁说话?我是学业出众的高材生.你敢抓我!〞Then they, presumably, would have apologized, perhaps even taken off their caps, and let me on my way. 那样一来,他们或许会向我道歉,说不定还会脱帽致意,让我走开呢.NEW WORDSbrushn. brief fight or encounter 小冲突;小接触processn. course; method, esp. one used in manufacture 过程;制作法arbitrarya. based on one s own opinion only, not on reason 任意的;武断的circumstancen.

It must have been this obvious aim-lessness that led to my downfall.事情发生在_点半钟光景.我在当地图书馆谋职未成,刚刚走出来,便看到一个人穿越马路,显然是要来跟我说话.我以为他要问我时间,不料他说他是警官,要逮捕我.起先我还以为这是在开玩笑,但又一个警察出现在我的面前,这次是位身着警服的,这一下使我确信无疑了.It was about half past eleven when it happened. I was just walking out of the local library, having unsuccessfully sought employment there, whenI saw a man walking across the road with the obvious intention of talkingto me. I thought he was going to ask me the time. Instead, he said he wasa police officer and he was arresting me. At first I thought it was somekind of joke. But then another policeman appeared, this time in uniform, andwas left in no doubt.〝为什么要抓我?〞我问道.〝到处游荡,企图作案,〞他说.〝作什么案?〞我又问.〝偷窃,〞他说.〝偷什么?〞我追问.〝牛奶瓶,〞他板着面孔说道.〝噢,〞我说.事情原来是这样的,在这一地区多次发生小的扒窃案,特别是从门前台阶上偷走牛奶瓶. It turned out there had been a lot of petty thefts in the area, particularly that of stealing milk bottles from doorsteps.接着,我犯了一个大错误.其时我年方_,留一头蓬乱的长发,自认为是60年代〝青年反主流文化〞的一员.所以我想装出一副冷漠的.对这一事件满不在乎的样子.于是我尽量用一种漫不经心的极其随便的腔调说,〝你们跟踪我多久啦?〞这样一来,在他们眼里,我就像是非常熟悉这一套的了,也使他们更加确信我是一个地地道道的坏蛋.Then I made my big mistake. At the time I was nineteen, had long untidy hair, and regarded myself as part of the si_ties ` youth counterculture .As a result, I wanted to appear cool and unconcerned with the incident, soI said, ` How long have you been following me? in the most casual and conversational tone I could manage. I thus appeared to them to be quite familiar with this sort of situation, and it confirmed them in their belief thatI was a thoroughly disreputable character.几分钟后,开来了一辆警车.〝坐到后面去,〞他们说.〝把手放到前排座位的靠背上,不准挪动.〞他们分别坐在我的两边.这可再也不是闹着玩的了.在警察局,他们审讯了我好几个小时.我继续装成老于世故.对这种事习以为常.当他们问我在千什么时,我告诉他们在找工作.〝啊,〞我可以想见他们在想,〝果然是个失业的家伙.〞 At the police station they questioned me for several hours. I continuedto try to look worldly and au fait with the situation. When they asked mewhat I had been doing, I told them I d been looking for a job. ` Aha, Icould see them thinking, `unemployed .最后,我被正式指控,并通知我下周一到里士满地方法庭受审.随后他们让我离开.我想在法庭上作自我辩护,但父亲知道这事后,马上请了一位高明的律师.我们星期一出庭的时候,带了各种各样的证人,其中包括我中学的英语老师,作我人品的见证人.但结果法庭没有叫他作证.我的〝审判〞没有进行到那一步.开庭 1 5分钟,法官就驳回了对我的指控.我无罪获释.可怜的警方败诉,我的律师甚至让法庭责成警方承担了诉讼费用. I wanted to conduct my own defense in court, but as soon as my fatherfound out what had happened, he hired a very good solicitor. We went along that Monday armed with all kinds of witnesses, including my Englishteacher from school as a character witness. But he was never called on togive evidence. My `trial didn t get that far. The magistrate dismissed thecase after fifteen minutes. I was free. The poor police had never stood achance. The solicitor even succeeded in getting costs awarded against thepolice.这样,我的履历上没有留下犯罪的记录.但当时最令人震惊的,是那些显然导致宣布我无罪的证据.我讲话的口音〝表明我受过良好教养〞,到庭的有体面的中产阶级的双亲,有可靠的证人,还有,我显然请得起一名很好的律师.从对我指控的这种捕风捉影的做法来看,我肯定,如果我出身在另一种背景的家庭里,并且真的是失了业的话,我完全可能被判有罪.当我的律师要求赔偿诉讼费时,他公然把辩护的证据建立在我〝学业优异〞这一事实上. And so I do not have a criminal record. But what was most shocking atthe time was the things my release from the charge so clearly depended on.I had the `right accent, respectable middle-class parents in court, reliablewitnesses, and I could obviously afford a very good solicitor. Given the obscurenature of the charge, I feel sure that if I had come from a different background,and had really been unemployed, there is every chance that I would have been found guilty. While asking for costs to be awarded, my solicitor s casequite obviously revolved around the fact that I had a brilliant academicrecord .与此同时,就在审判室外面,一位抓我的警察正在沮丧地向我母亲抱怨,说是又一个小伙子要跟警察作对了.他带着责各的口气对我说,〝我们抓你的时候,你本可以稍微帮J点忙的.〞 Meanwhile, just outside the courtroom, one of the policemen who hadarrested me was gloomily complaining to my mother that another youngsterhad been turned against the police. You could have been a bit more helpfulwhen we arrested you, he said to me reproachfully.他说这话什么意思?大概是说我本该显出愤愤不平的样子,并说,〝喂,留神,点,你知道你在跟谁说话?我是学业出众的高材生.你敢抓我!〞那样一来,他们或许会向我道歉,说不定还会脱帽致意,让我走开呢.What did he mean? Presumably that I should have looked outraged and saidsomething like, Look here, do you know who you re talking to? I am a highlysuccessful student with a brilliant academic record. How dare you arrest me!Then they, presumably, would have apologized, perhaps even taken offtheir caps, and let me on my way.第二单元不肯告发的女人〝我从来就不恨北方佬,我所恨的只是战争??〞我的姨婆贝蒂一讲起她的故事来,总是用这样的话开头.她的故事,在我还小的时候就听过多遍.姨婆住在弗吉尼亚贝利维尔一所旧房子里.每逢我们一家去看望她,她都要讲讲她的故事,那时姨婆贝蒂都快80岁了.但我可以想象到故事里她的容貌——刚刚_岁,长着一双亮晶晶的蓝眼睛,非常漂亮.贝蒂?范?米特完全有理由憎恨内战.她有个兄弟死在葛底斯堡战场上,还有一位当了俘虏.接着,她年轻的丈夫詹姆斯——南部邦联的一名军官——也被俘虏,关到某地一所不为人知的俘虏营里.9月下旬的一个热天,贝蒂家以前的奴隶迪克?朗纳来到贝蒂处,告诉她一件奇怪的事.他在察看离范?米特家半英里处的一所农舍时,本以为那是所空房子,但在屋里,他听到有人低声呻吟.他随着呻吟声来到顶楼,发现了一名受伤的联邦政府士兵,在他的身边放着一支步枪.贝蒂姨婆跟我讲起她第一次看到那个身着污渍斑斑的蓝军服.长着胡须的人时,她总是说,〝我就像步入一场梦境:可怕的绷带,吓人的气味.孩子,那才是战争的真实写照:没有军号,也没有战旗.有的只是痛苦和污秽,无益与死亡.〞在贝蒂?范?米特眼里,这个伤兵不是敌人,而是一个受苦受难的人.她给他水喝,并设法擦净他那可怕的伤口.然后她走出农舍,到外面呼吸一点清凉的空气,她倚在屋旁,想到她所见到的这一切——他那只打烂的右手,那条失去的左腿,真是恶心难忍.贝蒂在顶楼上找到的伤兵的证件,证实他的身份是第十一佛蒙特志愿军D连中尉亨利?比德尔,30岁.她知道应该把这个联邦政府军官的情况向南方邦联的军队报告,可是她也明白她不会那样做.她是这样向我解释的:〝我一直在想,他是不是在什么地方有一位妻子,等着他,盼着他,可又毫无音信——就像我一样.在我看来,唯一重要的事是让她的丈夫重新田到她的身旁.〞詹姆斯?范?米特的妻子慢慢地.耐心地.巧妙地．点燃了亨利?比德尔身上奄奄一息的生命火花.要说药品,她几乎没有.而她又不肯从南方邦联医院里极少的一点医药用品里去拿.但她尽其所有作了一切努力.当比德尔的体力有所恢复时,他向贝蒂叙说了他在佛蒙特韦斯菲尔德的妻子和子女的J晴况.当贝蒂讲起她的兄弟和詹姆斯时,比德尔也仔细倾听着.贝蒂姨婆总是跟我讲,〝我知道他的妻子一定在为他祈祷,就像我为詹姆斯祈祷一样.真奇怪,我和她的感情多么接近.〞山谷地带,_月的夜晚变得越来越冷.比德尔的伤田感染突然加剧.在迪克和他妻子詹尼的帮助下,贝蒂趁黑夜将这位联邦政府军官搬到她自家暖和的厨房上面的一个不易发现的阁楼上.但在第二天,比德尔发起高烧.贝蒂明白她必须求人帮助,否则他将会死去,因此找到她的家庭医生,多年的朋友格雷厄姆?奥斯本.奥斯本医生为比德尔作了检查,然后摇摇头说,希望甚微,除非能弄到合适的药品. 〝那好,〞贝蒂说.〝我到哈珀斯渡口北方军那儿去弄!〞医生说她想必疯了.联邦政府军的司令部在将近⒛英里之外,即使找到了北方军,他们也决不会相信她的话.〝我把证据带去,〞贝蒂说.她到阁楼上取下一份血迹斑斑的文件,上面盖着陆军部的官印.〝这是他最后一次晋升的记录,〞她说.〝我让他们看这个,他们一定会相信我.〞她叫医生写下所需药品的清单.次日一早,她就登程赶路.她驱车5个小时,马要休息时,她才停一停.当她终于到达哈珀斯渡口,找到司令官的时候,太阳都快落山了.约翰?D?史蒂文森将军听了她的叙述,但不信她的话.他说,〝夫人,我们已接到比德尔阵亡的报告.〞〝他还活着,〞贝蒂坚持说.〝不过,除非他得到单子上的药品,否则他就活不了多久了.〞〝好吧,〞将军最后说,〝我不想为了搞清这r点事,而拿一个巡逻队的生命去冒险.〞他转向一个下级军官说,〝你负责让范?米特太太得到这些药品.〞他对贝蒂的感谢并没有怎么理会,却说道,〝不管你讲的是真是假,你是一位勇敢的女性.〞有了贝蒂带回贝利维尔的药品,奥斯本医生才将比德尔从垂危之中拯救了过来._天之后,比德尔就能拄着迪克为他制作的拐杖一瘸一拐地行走了.〝我不能再这样连累你了,〞比德尔对贝蒂说道,〝我现在身体已经够好了,可以走了.我想尽早回去.〞于是,他们作了安排,由贝蒂的邻居和朋友萨姆先生用他的运货马车协助贝蒂将比德尔送交驻守在哈珀斯渡口的联邦政府军司令部.他们将贝蒂的马和萨姆先生的骡一起套上车.比德尔躺在一个装满干草的旧木箱内,他将步枪和拐杖放在身边.行程迟缓而漫长,差一点以灾难而告终.在离联邦政府军防线仅有1小时的路程时,突然出现了两个骑马的人.一个人举着手枪,逼着要钱.另一人将萨姆从车上拉了下来,贝蒂吓呆了,坐着一动不动.就在这时,一声枪响,拿手枪的歹徒应声倒地身亡.又一声枪响,另一个歹徒也躺倒地上.是比德尔开的枪!贝蒂看着他放下步枪,掸掉头发里的干草.〝上车吧,萨姆先生,〞他说道,〝我们赶路吧!〞在哈珀斯渡口,士兵们惊奇地盯着这位老农民和这位年轻的女子看.当缺了一条腿的联邦政府军官从装着干草的木箱里站起来时,他们更是惊愕不已.比德尔被派去华盛顿.在华盛顿,他把情况向陆军部长埃德温?M?斯坦顿作了汇报.斯坦顿给贝蒂写了一封感谢信,并签署了一项将詹姆斯?范?米特从战俘营释放的命令.可是首先必须找到詹姆斯.经过安排,由比德尔陪同贝蒂寻找她的丈夫.有文件记载,有个叫詹姆斯?范?米特的曾被送到俄亥俄的一个战俘营.可是当那些衣衫褴褛的俘虏们被带到贝蒂面前时,詹姆斯却不在里面.又查了一个俘虏营,结果也是一样.贝蒂?范?米特拼命抑制着一种令人战栗不已的恐惧感,她担心她的丈夫已经死去了.后来在特拉华堡,在靠近一排战俘的末尾处,一个高高个子的人从队伍里走了出来,蹒跚着扑到贝蒂怀里.贝蒂拥抱着他,泪流满面.拄着拐杖站立一旁的亨利?比德尔也流泪了. I never did hate the Yankees. All that I hated was the war...That s how my great-aunt Bettie began her story. I heard it many times as a child, whenever my family visited Aunt Bettie in the old house inBerryville, Virginia. Aunt Bettie was almost 80 years old then. But I couldpicture her as she was in the story she told me- barely _, pretty, with bright blue eyes.Bettie Van Metre had good reason to hate the Civil War. One of her brothers was killed at Gettysburg, another taken prisoner. Then her younghusband, James, a Confederate officer, was captured and sent to an un- known prison camp somewhere.One hot day in late September Dick Runner, a former slave, cameto Bettie with a strange report. He had been checking a farmhouse half a mile away from the Van Metre home, a farmhouse he thought wasempty. But inside, he heard low groans. Following them to the attic, he found a wounded Union soldier, with a rifle at his side.When Aunt Bettie told me about her first sight of the bearded man in the stained blue uniform, she always used the same words. It was like walking into a nightmare : those awful bandages, that dreadful smell. That s what war is really like, child: no bugles and banners. Just pain andfilth, futility and death.To Bettie Van Metre this man was not an enemy but rather a suffering human being. She gave him water and tried to clean his terrible wounds. Then she went out into the cool air and leaned against the house, trying not to be sick as she thought of what she had seen-that smashed right hand, that missing left leg.The man s papers Bettie found in the attic established his identity: Lt.Hey Bedell, Company D, North Vermont Volunteers, 30 years old. She knew that she should report the, presence of this Union officer to the Con-federate army. But she also knew that she would not do it. This is howshee_plained it to me: I kept wondering if he had a wife somewhere, wait- ing, and hoping, and not knowing- just as I was. It seemed to me that the only thing that mattered was to get her husband back to her. 篇三:大学英语精读第三版第三册课后答案大学英语精读第三册第三版(上海外语教育出版社)答案第三版Unit11) accent2) turn against3) a couple of4) takes his time5) fate6) confirmed7) witness8) subsequent9) stands a chance_) trial1) belief2) brilliant3) employment4) has saved up5) stood a chance6) were awarded7) Presumably8) conducted9) casual_) around (which student life) revolves1) Joe wrote to say that he had to put off his visit because of his illness.2) Despite the noise, they went on working as if nothing were happening.3) Traffic was held up for several hours by the accident.4) Called (up) on to speak at the meeting, I couldn t very well refuse.5) Mrs. Stevenson looked in the cupboard and found there was not a single lump of sugar left.6) It was the rumor that turned Joe against his twin brother.7) We wondered how Sara was getting on in her new job.8) Although Anne agreed with me on most points, there was one on which she was unwilling to give in.9) Visitors could photograph almost anything here without having to ask for permission._) Whether we make an e_cursion or stay home will depend on tomorrow s weather.1) uncertain,unafraid,unacceptable,unfamiliar,unequal;2) unanswered,unattached,unknown,undecided,une_pected;3)unhappily,unskillfully,unconsciously,unnecessarily,uncomfortably;4) unsay,undress,untie,unlock,unload.1) reliable2) changeable3) enjoyable4) e_haustible5) permissible6) regrettable7) breakable8) imaginable9) workable_) applicable1) countercharge2) counterattack3) counterpart4) counteract5) countermeasures6) Counterculturists1) Liz sang perfectly in the town hall yesterday afternoon.2) I saw your brother and his girlfriend walking arm in arm in the park the other day.3) It began to blow quite hard before midnight.4) They moved the piano into another room upstairs last evening.5) Come to my office at ten o clock.6) I was still living alone at home at the time.7) Believe it or not, I ran into your cousin in a shop in New York three weeks ago.8) The old couple were sitting quite happily in the garden at this time yesterday.1) It turned out that his methods didn t work at all.2) It turned out that the necklace was not made of diamond, but of glass.3) It turned out that the lost money had been in the safe all the time!4) It turned out that the e_periment was much more difficult than they had supposed.5) It has turned out that your nephew is the most suitable person for the job.6) To his surprise, it turned out that the fashionable young lady he spoke to was a pickpocket.1) Given his age, it was indeed a miracle that he had done so much in so short a time.2) Given that they are fresh from university, the young people have done a good job.。
大学英语精读5课后翻译答案（第三版）
Unit 1Mastering a large number of words is essential to achieving fluency in a foreign language. An unofficial, but often quoted, figure for the Cambridge First Certificate examination suggests that students with a vocabulary of less than 3,500 words are unlikely to be successful in the exam. Current research also suggests that native English speakers who have been educated up to 18 years old or beyond know at least 16,000 English words. And unless you already speak a language like Spanish or German, there are no shortcuts to a large vocabulary in English: you just have to rely on diligence and dedication. Of course you can figure out from the context the meanings of some new words you come across in your reading, but more often than not you have to look them up in a dictionary in order to be clear about their accurate meanings. A practicable way to pick up new words is, perhaps, to read a lot, preferably stories that you find interesting or exciting. It often pays to read the same book over and over again: each time you read it you will learn different new words, and the familiar context helps to fix them in your mind.要想流利的说一门外语，掌握大量词汇是必须的。

Unit5A mother and her son learn more from a moment of defeat than they ever could from a victory. Her example of never giving up gives him courage for the rest of his life.从失败的一刻中，母亲和儿子收获了他们从成功中不曾收获到的。
母亲永不放弃的精神给他此后的人生以很大的勇气。
The Day Mother CriedGerald MooreComing home from school that dark winter's day so long ago, I was filled with anticipation. I had a new issue of my favorite sports magazine tucked under my arm, and the house to myself. Dad was at work, my sister was away, and Mother wouldn't be home from her new job for an hour. I bounded up the steps, burst into the living room and flipped on a light.妈哭的那天在很久以前一个昏暗的冬天，我放学回家，心中充满了期待。
我腋下夹着一期新的我最爱看的体育杂志，再者，家里没有别人打扰我。
爸爸在上班，妹妹不在家。
妈妈刚找到新工作，还得过一个小时才下班。
我跳上台阶，冲进起居室，啪嗒一声打开电灯。
I was shocked into stillness by what I saw.Mother, pulled into a tight ball with her face in her hands, sat at the far end of the couch.She was crying. I had never seen her cry.我被眼前的景象惊呆了。
妈妈双手捂着脸，身子紧缩成一团，坐在长沙发的那一端哭泣着。
我看见妈妈哭这还是第一次。
I approached cautiously and touched her shoulder. "Mother?" I said. "What's happened?"我小心翼翼地向她走去，轻轻拍她的肩膀。
“妈妈，”我说，“怎么啦?”She took a long breath and managed a weak smile. "It's nothing, really. Nothing important. Just that I'm going to lose this new job. I can't type fast enough."妈妈深深吸了一口气，强作微笑。
“没什么，真的。
没有什么要紧的事。
只是我这份新工作要丢了。
我字打得不够快。
”"But you've only been there three days," I said. "You'll catch on." I was repeating a line she had spoken to me a hundred times when I was having trouble learning or doing something important to me.“可你上班才三天，”我说。
“你会熟练起来的。
”我这是在重复她讲过上百次的一句话，每当我学习或做一件与自己关系重大的事情而遇到困难时，她总是这样跟我说的。
"No," she said sadly. "I always said I could do anything I set my mind to, and I still think I can in most things. But I can't do this."“不成，”妈妈黯然神伤地说。
“过去我总是讲，只要我下决心，什么事都能干成。
现在我仍然认为大多数的事我都能做。
但打字这件事我干不了。
”I felt helpless and out of place. At age 16 I still assumed Mother could do anything. Some years before, when we sold our ranch and moved to town, Mother had decided to open a day nursery. She had had no training, but that didn't stand in her way. She sent away for correspondence courses in child care, did the lessons and in six months formally qualified herself for the task. It wasn't long before she had a full enrollment and a waiting list. I accepted all this as a perfectly normal instance of Mother's ability.我感到无能为力，而且十分尴尬。
我虽然十六岁了，但仍然以为妈妈什么都能干。
几年前，当我们卖掉农场，搬到城里住的时候，妈妈决定开办日托所。
她过去没有受过这方面的训练，但这并不能阻碍她。
她写信要求参加幼托函授课程，学习了六个月就正式获得从事这项工作的资格。
不久她的日托所招生额满，而且还有不少小孩登记等着入托呢。
我觉得凭妈妈的能力，办成这一切是理所当然的。
But neither the nursery nor the motel my parents bought later had provided enough income to send my sister and me to college. In two years I would be ready for college. In three more my sister would want to go. Time was running out, and Mother was frantic for ways to save money. It was clear that Dad could do no more than he wasdoing already — farming 80 acres in addition to holding a fulltime job.然而，无论是托儿所或是我父母后来购买的汽车旅馆都不能提供足够的收入供我妹妹和我上大学。
两年后就该是我上大学的时候了。
再过三年，妹妹也要上了。
时间一天天过去，妈妈拼命想办法积蓄钱。
很清楚，爸爸已尽了最大努力--除了一份全日工作之外，还耕种了八十英亩地。
A few months after we'd sold the motel, Mother arrived home with a used typewriter.It skipped between certain letters and the keyboard was soft. At dinner that night I pronounced the machine a "piece of junk."我们卖了汽车旅馆没几个月，妈妈搬回来一台旧打字机。
这架打字机有时会跳字，键盘也很松。
那天吃晚饭时，我把这台机器说成是“废物一件”。
"That's all we can afford," Mother said. "It's good enough to learn on." And from that day on, as soon as the table was cleared and the dishes were done, Mother would disappear into her sewing room to practice. The slow tap, tap, tap went on some nights until midnight.“我们只买得起这样旧的，”妈妈说。
“学打字用是够可以的了。
”从那天起，餐桌一收拾，盘子一洗，妈妈马上到她的缝纫间去练习。
有几天，那缓慢的嗒、嗒、嗒的声音一直持续到午夜。
It was nearly Christmas when I heard Mother got a job at the radio station. I was not the least bit surprised, or impressed. But she was ecstatic.临近圣诞节的时候，我听说妈妈在电台找到一份工作。
我一点也不惊奇，也不觉得有什么特别，但妈妈却欣喜万分。
Monday, after her first day at work, I could see that the excitement was gone. Mother looked tired and drawn.I responded by ignoring her.星期一，妈妈第一天上班回来，我发觉妈妈的高兴劲儿已经烟消云散。
妈妈绷着脸，看上去很疲劳，我没对她作任何表示。
Tuesday, Dad made dinner and cleaned the kitchen. Mother stayed in her sewing room, practicing. "Is Mother all right?" I asked Dad.星期二，爸爸做晚饭，收拾厨房。
妈妈呆在缝纫间练习打字。
“妈妈还好吗?”我问爸爸。
"She's having a little trouble with her typing," he said. "She needs to practice. I think she'd appreciate it if we all helped out a bit more."“妈妈打字碰到点困难，”他说，“她需要练习。
