4From Cunctator's day until this century, the art of postponement had been virtually a monopoly of the military ("Hurry up and wait"), diplomacy and the law. In former times, a British proconsul faced with a native uprising could comfortably ruminate about the situation with Singapore Sling in hand. Blessedly, he had no nattering Telex to order in machine guns and fresh troops. AU.S.general as late as World War II could agree with his enemy counterpart to take a sporting day off, loot the villagers' chickens and wine and go back to battle a day later. Lawyers are among the world's most addicted postponers. According to Frank Nathan, a nonpost-poningBeverly Hillsinsurance salesman, "The number of attorneys who die without a will is amazing."
3Yet for all the trouble procrastination may incur, delay can often inspire and revive a creative soul. Jean Kerr, author of many successful novels and plays, says that she reads every soup-can and jamjar label in her kitchen before settling down to her typewriter. Many a writer focuses on almost anything but his task—for example, on the Coast and Geodetic Survey of Maine'sFrenchmanBays imagination with names like Googins Ledge, Blunts Pond, Hio Hill and Burnt Porcupine, Long Porcupine, Sheep Porcupine and Bald Porcupine islands.

is this aspect of living history that most news reporting reflects inadequately.The result is that we are underinformed about positive developments and overinformed about disasters.This,in turn,leads to a public mood of defeatism and despair,which in themselves tend to be inhibitors of progress.An unrelieved diet of eruptive news depletes the essential human energies a free society needs.A mood of hopelessness and cynicism is hardly likely to furnish the energy needed to meet serious challenges.Complete the following sentences with relevant information.1.Mass communication differs from

He became the leader of the Soviet school of genetics that opposed the theories of heredity accepted by most geneticists and supported the doctrine that the characteristics acquired through environmental influences are inherited. Lysenko rejected neo-Mendelism and was a disciple of the Russian horticulturist I. V. Michurin. Ly senkol s theories were offered as Marxist orthodoxy and won the official support (1948) of the Soviet Central Com- mittee. However, they were severely criticized after the death of Stalin in 1953, and in 1956 he was removed as director of the Institute of Genetics, which resulted in there turn of Soviet biological thought to the mainstream of international scientific ideas.2. Leonardo. Leonardo da Vinci (1452 -- 1519), Italian painter, sculptor, architect, musician, engineer, and scientist, born near Vinci, a hill village in Tuscany. In 1466 he moved to Florence, where he entered the workshop of Verrocchio. Early in his apprenticeship he painted an an-gel, and perhaps portions of the landscape, in Verrocchio' s Baptism of Christ. The culmination of Leonardo' s art during his first period in Florence is the magnificent unfinished Adoration of the Magi commissioned in 1481 by the monks of San Donato a Scopeto. In this work is revealed the integration of dramatic movement and chiaroscuro that characterizes the master' s mature style, He went to Milan around 1482 and remained at the court of Ludovico Sforza for 16 years. In 1483, Leonardo, with his pupil Ambrogiode Predis, was commissioned to execute the famous Madonna of the Rocks. Leonardo' s fresco of the Last Sup-per (Milan) was begun around 1495 and completed by1498. After the fall ofLudovica Sforza (1499) Leonar do left Milan and returned to Florence. Here he engaged in much theoretical work in mathematics and pursued his anatomical studies at the hospital of Santa Maria Nuova. In 1502 he entered the service of Cesare Borgia as a military engineer. In 1503 he was commissioned to execute the fresco of the battle of Anghiari but was never completed. From about this time dates the celebrated Mona Liza, the portrait of the wife of a Florentine merchant. The old master spent his last years in France at the castle of Cloux, near Amboise. Here he was left entirely free to pursue his own researches until his death. The versatility and creative power of Leonardo mark him as a supreme example of Renaissance genius. The richness and originality of intellect expressed in his notebooks reveal one of the greatest minds of all time.Ⅱ.1. There are broad agreements about the basic concepts of science, for example, there is only a single science of thermodynamics whose basic concepts are accepted by all countries, including such diverse countries as China, America or the Soviet Union. For a short time there were two genetics, a Soviet genetics as proposed by Lysenko and a Western genetics. However, Soviet Lysenko' s theories were refuted and in 1956 the Soviet Union accepted the Western genetic concepts.2. It makes the world look more and more uniform. Different styles in architecture, dress, music and eating that exist in various countries and among different people are tending to disappear. They are being replaced by more uniform styles or world styles. The houses the people live in, the cars they drive, etc. , are becoming more alike.3. A technological innovation in the manufacture of automobiles like streamlining or all-welded body construction may be initiated by one company in one country, but when it proves to make cars more efficient and cheaper, it is soon adopted universally by all automobile manufacturers. Today, the basic features of an automobile are to be found in automobiles in general, no matter who makes them. Besides this feature, all large automakers are now international companies. Americans have auto plants in Europe, Asia and South America, and Europeans and Japanese have plants in America and South America, and so on.4. He drives cars that have the same basic features. When he goes shopping, he finds the climate in all the shops is the same because they are all similarlyair-conditioned. When he travels he finds all the airports to be familiar because they are all constructed along similar lines and the hotels to have the same amenities. In a word, he finds himself at home in all countries and places.5. He no longer has a fixed home with all the emotional ties that are usually attached to such a home with its fixed location surrounded by well-known neighbors, etc. His home is now everywhere and he is always surrounded by all kinds of neighbors. He feels the old home limited his activities and his emotions.6. She says in the past artists regarded machines and machinelike structures like the Eiffel Tower in Paris as ugly and irreverent. After 1949 the artists discovered a new beauty in machines which could now be shaped and moulded very easily into various artistic designs.7. The writer doesn’t t directly answer the question. He says science has now thrown doubt on "the thingliness of things". It does not produce the material objects we see with our eyes but images, geometric and mathematical, of the reality underlying these things. It has made the world rather "insubstantial". The writer in his prologue states: "Today, nature has slipped, perhaps finally, beyond our field of vision. We can imitate it in mathematics -- we can even produce convincing images of it -- but we can never know it. We can only know our own creations.8. It is displayed in the architectural styles found in cities of the developed world -- styles that typify collage city and urban adhocism. It is also displayed in the mosaic architecture of facadism and the playful theme parks and museum villages. It abounds in images and sounds and values utterly different from those of the world of natural things seen from a middle distance.9. The banks are no longer the solid, ponderous buildings of the past but airy structures Of steel and glass. People need not go to the banks directly for many financial transactions which can now be carried out in stores or trailers with slot- machinelike terminals linked to the banks. Money is now recorded, erased, processed and reprocessed as digital signals by a computer.Ⅲ.1.In the passage, the writer puts forward his central theme of "disappearance" -- nature disappears, history disappears and even the solid banks disappear. Besides expressing the central theme of the book, the metaphorical phrase, "Disappearing Through the Skylight", is used also specifically in this chapter to describe the changedappearance of modern banks which seem to be disappearing. The second important idea he puts forward is the universalizing tendency of science and technology. The basic concepts of science are understood, accepted and adopted by scientists all over the world. There is only one science of thermodynamics, genetics, etc. This universalizing effect is reflected in architectural styles, dress styles, musical styles, etc. They all tend to become world styles. The third concept is, "If man creates machines, machines in turn shape their creators. " The modern man is no longer a unique individual, the product of a special environment and culture. The homogeneous world he now lives in universalizes him. He becomes a cosmopolitan, a citizen of the world. Finally, the disappearance of history is a form of liberation and this feeling of liberation is often expressed through play. the playfulness of science has produced game theory and virtual particles, in art it has puoduced the paintings of Picasso and Joan Miro and so on.2. The writer' s views are generally clearly and succinctly presented as a topic sentence at the beginning of each paragraph and then developed or illustrated in the paragraph itself or by succeeding paragraphs. For example, the first sentence in the opening paragraph is a topic sentence that presents a very important view of the writer, "Science is committed to the universal. " This idea of universality is developed and illustrated in the five paragraphs that follow and each paragraph that follows also has its own topic sentence. The organizational pattern is very clear and logical.3. The writer uses tha present tense and universal statements to attain the goal of objectivity.4. The writer uses figurative language freely to make his ideas more vivid and forceful. Readers can find many metaphors, analogies, rhetorical questions, repetition and balanced structure, etc. in this piece. The very title of this piece, " Disappearing Through the Skylight ", is a metaphorical phrase that immediately stirs the imagination of readers.5. A lot of scientific and technical terms are used in this piece, such as thermodynamics, genetics, genetic mutations, etc. Many sentences are complex and compound ones; some of them, though simple sentences, are complicated in structure, for example, "The skepticism of modern science "" from the soul. " "It surrounds its citizens with "-" and geodesic domes and lunar landers. " All these are stylistic features.IV.1. Science is engaged in the task of making its basic concepts understood and accepted by scientists all over the world.2. The car model, called Fiesta, seems to have disappeared completely.3. The idea of a world car is similar to the idea of having a world style for architecture. /As architecture was moving toward a common International Style, it was natural for the automobile to do the same.4. Things that are happening in auto making are similar to those happening in architecture.5. The modern man no longer has very distinct individual traits shaped by a special environment and culture.6.The disadvantage of being a cosmopolitan is that he loses a home in the old sense of the world.7.The benefit of being a cosmopolitan is that he begins to think the old kind of home probably restricts his development and activities.8.The compelling force of technology to universalize cannot be resisted.9.When every artist thought it was his duty to show his contempt for and objection to the Eiffel Tower which they considered an irreverent architectural structure.10.a flexible and pliable quality that was beyond human powers and absolutely new 11.People used to firmly believe that the things they saw around them were real solid substances but this has now been thrown into doubt by science,12.That,perhaps, shows how far logically modern aesthetic can go./The solid banks can become almost abstract and invisible./This is perhaps the furthest limit of how solid objective things may be disappearing.V.See the translation of the text.Ⅵ.1.Thermodynamics热力学2.genetic遗传学3.stress应力4.genetic mutation遗传突变5.streamlining(设计成)流线型6.all—welded body全焊车身7.cyclinder block气缸套8.carburetor汽化器9.transmission传动;变速器10.cells细胞11.molecules分子12.galaxies星系13.particles粒子14.black hole(天文)黑洞15.genes基因16.High-tension lines高压线17.circuit(集成)电路18.geodesic dome用轻便和挺直建筑材料的拉力建造的圆屋顶19.terminal终端20.Magnetic tapes(录音等用)磁带21.computer计算机Ⅶ.1.homogeneous:the same in structure,quality,etc.;similar or identical 2.diversity:different;variety3.economics:things related to the economy(of automobile manufacturing,such as production costs,consumer appeal,sale price,etc.)4.asset:a valuable or desirable thing5.suspect:think it probable or likely;guess;suppose6.barring:unless there should be;excepting7.blasphemy:any remark or action or thing held to be irreverent or disrespectful 8.proposition:a person,problem,undertaking,etc.,being or to be dealt with 9.extra:outside the scope or region of;beyond10.order:category,class11.artifact:a product(as a structure on a microscope slide)of artificial character due to extraneous(as human)agency12.circuits:an integrated circuit,a tiny complex of electronic components and their interconnections produced on a single small silicon chip silicon:a silicon chip,a small slice of silicon on which an integrated circuit is etched.13.truss:a rigid framework of beams,struts bars,etc.,for supporting a roof geodesic dome:a dome made of light straight structural elements mostly in tensionⅧ.1.uni-,having or consisting of one only:universe,uniaxial,unicellular, unilateral, unipolar, univalve2. thermo-, heat : thermodynamics, thermochemistry, thermoelectric, thermometer, thermomagnetic, thermoplastic3. dis-, fail, cease, refuse to .disappear, dissatisfy, disallow, disappoint, disapprove, disbelieve4. techno-, art, science, skill, technical, technological: technology, technography, technocracy, technocrat, technologist, technologize5. hom or homo-, one and the same : similar, alike : homogeneous, homograph, homochromatic, homology, homonym, homophone6. auto-, self-propelling: automobile, autotruck, autobus, autocade, autogyro, automotive7. trans-, over, across, through: transmission, transfer, transmigrate, transfuse,, transform, transition8. cosmo-, world, universe, cosmopolitan, cosmography, cosmology, cosmonaut, cosmopolis9. post-, after in time, later (than), following: postmodernism, postglacial, postnatal, posthumous, postimpressionism, postmortem10. neo-, new, recent, latest : neomodernism, neolithic, neo-Darwinism, neoimpressionism, neologism, neophyteIX.1.

Impact of Science and Technology on Our societyThe development of science and technology nowadays has exerted an enormous influence on our society. We needn’t enumerate the achievements human beings have made in the fields of electronics and biochemistry which so benefit us. Only have a look around us and we are sure to feel the ubiquitous impact.Radios and cassette recorders are the necessary tools for learning foreign languages. A telephone has become one of the most important communication tools even among students. When the clock strikes, announcing the arrival of the new year, many students wait at the telephone box with an intention of sending greetings to their family members. And we now use magnetic cards to buy food in the canteens. The procedure becomes simple and the management systematic. With the help of the sophisticated medical equipment, some diseases which used to be incurable can be got rid of.On the other hand, the scientific and technical development has resulted in some problems, among which is pollution. Fortunately, more and more people have come to realize the seriousness of a variety of pollutions and begun to take the action against it.Although the development of science and technology has brought some side effects, with its further advance, human beings are sure to get over them, and enjoy more and more ad-vantages of science and technology.。

4From Cunctator's day until this century, the art of postponement had been virtually a monopoly of the military ("Hurry up and wait"), diplomacy and the law. In former times, a British proconsul faced with a native uprising could comfortably ruminate about the situation with Singapore Sling in hand. Blessedly, he had no nattering Telex to order in machine guns and fresh troops. AU.S.general as late as World War II could agree with his enemy counterpart to take a sporting day off, loot the villagers' chickens and wine and go back to battle a day later. Lawyers are among the world's most addicted postponers. According to Frank Nathan, a nonpost-poningBeverly Hillsinsurance salesman, "The number ofattorneys who die without a will is amazing."
2The world is probably about evenly divided between delayers and do-it-nowers. There are those who prepare their income taxes in February, prepay mortgages and serve precisely planned dinners at an ungodly 6:30 p.m. The other half dine happily on leftovers at 9 or 10, misplace bills and file for an extension of the income tax deadline. They seldom pay credit-card bills until the apocalyptic voice of Diners threatens doom fromDenver. They postpone, as Faustian encounters, visits to barbershop, dentist or doctor.

Kandinsky says that beautiful art reflects the innerneed of a man's soul.20. Modern art not only shows the material objects in nature that we can see from the normal distance but alsodepicts things that we see in our minds.21. The world of nature that modern art reveals no longer contains the material objects instead the world is nowfilled with images of the mind.22. The playfulness of the modern art aesthetic is its most striking and serious feature, but the least upsettingfeature.23. The playful and fantastic buildings of postmodernism and neomodernism reflects the playfulness of the modernaesthetic.24. Modern culture is active and changing, but it can not depict structures that reflect straight lines of geometricdesigns.25. Modern culture refers to the geometric patterns of the international style, the imaginative design of facadismand the playfulness of theme park26. The banks are like abstract art for they are clearlyvisible solid buildings.27. Modern culture is not the image of the self-portrait ofLeonardo da Vinci which looks worn and tired.28. Money is not only stored in vaults but also recordedon magnetic tapes.29. Modern culture is the image of a power which creates regular patterns of things and which is capable of puttingit aside and creating a different one.30. It won't be long when the banks completely disappear, for the dim outline of this can be seen through the mists.第二册第6课练习答案1-1: / 答案:B1-2: / 答案:A1-3: / 答案:D1-4: / 答案:A1-5: / 答案:B1-6: / 答案:C1-7: / 答案:B1-8: / 答案:D1-9: / 答案:A1-10: / 答案:C1-11: / 答案:D1-12: / 答案:B1-13: / 答案:A1-14: / 答案:C1-15: / 答案:D1-16: / 答案:A1-17: / 答案:B1-18: / 答案:C 1-19: / 答案:C 1-20: / 答案:A 1-21: / 答案:B 1-22: / 答案:D 1-23: / 答案:A 1-24: / 答案:B 1-25: / 答案:C 1-26: / 答案:D 1-27: / 答案:B 1-28: / 答案:A 1-29: / 答案:C 1-30: / 答案:B 1-31: / 答案:A 1-32: / 答案:C 1-33: / 答案:D 1-34: / 答案:B 1-35: / 答案:B 1-36: / 答案:A 1-37: / 答案:C 1-38: / 答案:D 1-39: / 答案:B 1-40: / 答案:A 2-1: /答案:equence2-2: /答案:ssertive2-3: /答案:rase2-4: /答案:odify2-5: /答案:ock2-6: /答案:irtual2-7: /答案:lot2-8: /答案:eave2-9: /答案:ircuit2-10: /答案:ollage2-11: /答案:edium2-12: /答案:ubstantiality 2-13: /答案:efresh2-14: /答案:erception2-15: /答案:eography2-16: /答案:alice2-17: /答案:bound2-18: /答案:erminal2-19: /答案:ransaction2-20: /答案:aze2-21: /答案:hermodynamics 2-22: /答案:enetics2-23: /答案:treamline2-24: /答案:esthetic2-25: /答案:lasphemy2-26: /答案: rtefact2-27: /答案:annibalism2-28: /答案:amesmanship 2-29: /答案:uxtaposition 2-30: /答案:irtuosity3-1: /答案:T3-2: /答案:F3-3: /3-4: /答案:F 3-5: /答案:T 3-6: /答案:F 3-7: /答案:T 3-8: /答案:F 3-9: /答案:T 3-10: / 答案:F 3-11: / 答案:T 3-12: / 答案:F 3-13: / 答案:F 3-14: / 答案:F 3-15: / 答案:T 3-16: / 答案:F 3-17: / 答案:T 3-18: / 答案:F 3-19: / 答案:T 3-20: / 答案:F 3-21: / 答案:T 3-22: / 答案:F 3-23: / 答案:T 3-24: / 答案:F 3-25: /3-26: / 答案:F 3-27: / 答案:T 3-28: / 答案:F 3-29: / 答案:T 3-30: / 答案:F。

L【1】esson 1 Sexism in School1. Education is not a spectator sport. (p3)Education is something that all students should participate in.2. When students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudestoward school, and that positive attitudes enhance learning. (p3)When students participate in classroom discussion they are more inclined to think that going to school is useful, and the positive attitudes facilitate learning.3. It is no coincidence that girls are more passive in the classroom and score lower thanboys on SATs. (p3)It is not surprising that the two things, namely, girls being more passive in the classroom and scoring lower than boys should be causally related.4. Most teachers claim that girls participate and are called on in class as often as boys.(p4)Most teachers state that girls participate and are asked to speak in class as often as boy.5. But a three-year study we recently completed found that this is not true; vocally, boysclearly dominate the classroom. (p4)Based on a three-year study, we found that this is not true; in terms of oral participation, boys clearly speak much more in classroom.6. When we showed teachers and administrators film of a classroom discussion andasked who was talking more, the teachers overwhelmingly said the girls were. (p4) When we showed teachers and people responsible for the running of a school a video of a classroom discussion and asked who was talking more, the teachers almost all said the girls were.7. But in reality, the boys in the film were out-talking the girls at a ratio of three to one.(p4)But in reality, the boys in the video were talking more than the girls at a speed of three to one.8. Half of the classroom covered language arts and English-subjects in which girlstraditionally have excelled; the other half covered math and science --- traditionally made domains. (p5)Half of the classroom covered the skills in using the language for effective communication and literary appreciation. And girls usually do better in these subjects.The other half covered math and science which traditionally belong to male field.9. Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls dominate classroomdiscussion in reading, while boys are dominant in math. (p7)Our research denied the truth of the traditional supposition that girls control classroom discussion in reading, while boys control the discussion in math.10. We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math andscience, boys got more than their fair share of teacher attention. (p7)We found that whether the subject was skills in using the language for effective communication and English or math and science, boys got more teacher attention than is supposed to be fair.11. Some critics claim that if teachers talk more to male students, it is simply becauseboys are more assertive in grabbing their attention --- a classic case of the squeaky wheel getting the educational oil. (p8)Some critics state firmly that if teachers talk more to male students, it is simply because boys are more aggressive in catching their attention --- a typical example of the notice --- arresting students getting more attention from the teacher.12. However, male assertiveness is not the whole answer. (p8)However, male’s mere assertive cannot completely an swer the question.13. Girls are often shortchanged in quality as well as in quantity of teacher attention. (p10)Girls are often not given enough teacher attention what they deserve in quality as well as in quantity.14. Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do ityourself; classroom chivalry is not only misplaced, it is detrimental. (p13)Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself; “let me do for you” behavior is not only improper, it is harmful.15. During classroom discussion, teachers in our study reacted to boys’ answers withdynamic, precise and effective responses, while they often gave girls bland and diffuse reactions. (p13)During classroom discussion, teachers in our study reacted to boys’ answers with energetic, accurate and effective responses, while they often gave girls indifferent and general reactions.16. Despite caricatures of school as a harsh and punitive place, fewer than 5 percent ofthe teachers’ reactions were crit icism, even of the mildest sort. (p15)Although school is often mockingly described as a place where students are badly treated and often punished.17. Too often, girls remain in the dark about the quality of their answers. (p18)Too often, girls are kept completely uninformed about the quality of their answers. 18. Unfortunately, acceptance, the imprecise response packing the least educationalpunch, gets the most equitable sex distribution in classroom. (p18)It is unfortunate that the least useful kind of feedback is distributed between boys and girls most impartially, while the more useful kinds of feedback are heavily biased towards boys. Thus the overall result is that the feedback boys receive much more beneficial than that for girls.19. Active students receiving precise feedback are more likely to achieve academically.And they are more likely to be boys. (p18)Any active student who receives precise feedback can achieve more in his or her studies. And boys are more likely to be active and to receive such feedback, and so are more likely to succeed.20. By high school, some girls become less committed to careers, although their gradesand achievement-test scores may be as good as boys’. (p20)By high school, some girls are not so devoted to the subject they have been studying, despite their academic study as good as boys’.21. Many girls’ interests turn to marriage or stereotypically female jobs. (p20)Many girls’ interests turn to marriage or jobs which are conventionally believed to be taken up by women only.22. The sexist communication game is played at work, as well as at school. (p23)The conversation among people which exhibits elements of sexism not exists in the field of work but also at school.23. Classes taught by these trained teachers had a higher level of intellectual discussionand contained more effective and precise teacher responses for all students. (p28) Classes taught by these trained teachers had a higher level of the discussion which is full of intelligence and contained more effective and accurate teacher responses for all students.Lesson 2 Philosophers among the Carrots1. I asked myself if it was still permissible to take pleasure in the profession ofhousewife and not be a traitor to the cause. (p1)I was wondering whether it is possible for me to get pleasure by working as ahousewife while at the same time still devoted to the Women’s Lib.2. I recalled Socrates saying that, “The unexamined life is not worth living,” and decidedthat maybe it was time to examine mine. (p1)I remembered Socrates’ saying that, “The life of few profound consideration andcareful choice is not a meaningful one”, and decided that maybe it was time to look at my life very carefully to see if any lessons could be drawn from it or any changes needed to be made in it.3. If I hadn’t been to college, I wouldn’t have been that significant analogy, I thoughtsmugly, depositing an orange pit in the sink as I finished the salad (or did I learn that in high school?). (p2)I feel proud of knowledge I have acquired from college which descend in scale. Isplitted an orange pit into the kitchen sink after I had finished eating the salad. (If I didn’t learn that in high school, which part of the compulsory education was, I should not feel so indebted to Women’s Lib.)4. Then, as I eyed a bowl of cooked carrots speculatively, sizing them up for carrot cakeof marinated vegetable salad and opting for the cake which I knew would be seconded by my husband and sons, (p3)Then, as I watched a bowl of cooked carrots thoughtfully, estimating whether they would be better for making salad, and deciding on the cake which I knew would be supported by my husband and three sons,5. I followed the train of my thoughts which was chugging off into philosophical realmsled by Archimedes who said, “Any object placed in a fluid displaces its weight; an immersed object displaces its volume,” (p3)My thoughts, led by Archimedes, wandered away into the kingdom of philosophy. He said, “When an object floats on the liquid we can know its weight, which is equal to the weight of the liquid it has displaced; when an object immersed in the liquid we can know its volume which is equal to the volume of the liquid it has displaced.”6. Muttering, along with Emerson, that “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of littleminds…” I dumped in a couple of spoonfuls of applesauce to make it come out right.(p3)Saying in a low voice, quoting from Emerson that “To observe a rule rigidly is anabominable quality of unintelligent people” I poured a couple of spoonfuls of applesauce to taste better.7. Buddha has his Bo tree, I have my refrigerator. (p4)Just as Buddha received heavenly inspiration to found Buddhism under the Bo tree, so I get new understanding about housewives and philosophy by gazing into the depth of the refrigerator.8. You can’t st ep twice in the same river. (p4)Please rest assured that what you are washing today is different from what you washed yesterday.9. I saw about me the variety in unity and unity in variety spoken of by my aestheticsprofessor. (p4)I saw the principle spoken by my aesthetics professor which means to see uniformityin differences and see differences in uniformity. Applied to my case, “unity” means that all the clothes I had to wash were dirty clothes and “variety” means that every piece to be washed was different from every other piece.10. I indulged in aggressive fantasies against my dear family as I picked up a necktiedraped on a lamp, a pair of tennis shoes under the couch, a cache of peanut shells beneath a newspaper and remembering William James’ comment that “Even a pig has a philosophy,” I wondered angrily what theirs was. (p5)I allowed myself to develop a lot of hostile and angry thoughts against my dearhusband and three sons when I picked up a tie draped on a lamp, a pair of tennis shoes under the couch, a secret store of peanut shells beneath a newspaper and remembering William James’ comment that “Even a pig has an attitude to life.” So I wondered since they were like pigs, they must have had one too. (Anyone may find an excuse for their behavior.)11. ……w ith a wave of willfulness (p6)……with a sudden burst of determination to go my own way12. In my present state of mind I found this the quintessence of good sense and I walkedout of house and into the car, leaving the breakfast dishes on the table. (p6)In my present mood, I found this the best representation of human wisdom.13. I smiled enigmatically as I continued to stir the chicken soup and quoted AlexanderPope, “All chaos is but order misunderstood,” then added with composure that I had purchase a new dress. (p7)I smiled in a way which showed there was something secret about her when Icontinued to stir the chicken soup and quoted Alexander Pope, “All chaos is in fact not chaos, but is order which ha s been mistaken for chaos.”14. But, without becoming the least bit ruffled, I replied, in the words of Pascal, “Ah, butthe heart has its reasons the mind knows not of.” (p8)……sometimes you do something out of emotion which is not based on any reason. 15. Whatever is, is good. (p9)Reality is good. It is good, because everything is created by God.Lesson 3 The Power of Habit1. Habit is a second nature! Habit is ten times nature. (p1)Habit is a second born quality. It is so deeply fixed that you simply follow your habit without thinking.2. …… the degree to which this is true no one probably can appreciate as well as onewho is a veteran soldier himself. (p1)Only the experienced soldier can best recognize the truth of the duke’s statement.3. The daily drill and the years of discipline end by fashioning a man completely overagain, as to most of the possibilities of his conduct. (p1)It takes many years of daily training of mind and qualities to create a completely new person, as far as his possible patterns of behavior are connected.4. a practical joke (p2)sb. who plays a trick on sb. else so as to make the victim foolish5. The drill had been thorough, and its effects had become embodied in the man’snervous structure. (p2)The training had completed in any way, and its effects had become a part of man’s nervous system.6. Rider less cavalry-horses, at many a battle, have been seen to come together and gothrough their customary evolutions at the sound of the bugle-call. (p3)Without a rider, soldier who fight on horseback at many battles, have been to gather together and take part in their habitual drills as soon as they heard sound of trumpet.7. Most domestic beasts seem machines almost pure and simple, undoubting,unhesitatingly doing from minute to minute the duties they have been taught, and giving no sign that possibility of an alternative ever suggests itself to their mind. (p3) Most beasts raised at home are completely like machines, and no doubt, never hesitate to do the duties they have been taught all the time and give no indication that they have never come up with other options.8. …… by his new responsibilities, (p4)…… things he had to face or manage in the new environment,9. Habit is thus the enormous fly-wheel of society, its most precious conservative agent.(p4)Habit is a regulating force that maintains established order of society and prevents any sudden change in it.10. It alone is what keeps up all with the bounds of ordinance. (p4)It keeps us all in the different professional, geographical, or social positions designated to us by law or fate.11. It alone prevents the hardest and most repulsive walks of life from being deserted bythose brought up to tread therein. (p4)Because of habit, those who have been trained to work in that place since their childhood will not give up those most difficult and unpleasant occupation.12. It protects us from invasion by the natives of the desert and the frozen zone. (p4)It makes the natives of the desert and the frozen zone stay in their own place because of habit.13. It dooms us all to fight out the battle of life upon the lines of our nature or our earlychoice, and to make the best of a pursuit that disagrees, because there is no other for which we are fitted, and it is too late to begin again. (p4)Habit determines that one will stay and work hard till the end of life in a disagreeable occupation which he was brought to follow or chose early in our life, and try to accept and manage it as well as he can. Because there is no other choice for which we are suitable, and it is too late to begin again.14. Although at the age of twenty-five you see the professional mannerism settling downon the young commercial traveler. (p4)By age 25, your future career has been settled down and you have formed peculiar habits in work.15. You see the little lines of cleavage running through the character, the tricks of thought,the prejudices, the ways of the “shop”, in a word, from which the man can by-and-by no more escape than his coat sleeve can suddenly fall into a new set of folds. (p4) You get the general idea of the traits of one’s personality, the particular way of thinking, the personal preference, the ways in which one does one’s business, they are all fixed habits. Therefore, the man cannot escape his old habits he has acquired just as his coat sleeve cannot suddenly fall into a new set of folds which has been ironed into it.16. It is best he should not escape. (p4)It is most desirable he should not eacape.17. Hardly ever is a language learned after twenty spoken without a foreign accent;If one learns a language after the age of twenty, he will almost never sound like a native speaker, but only like a foreigner;18. Hardly, ever can a youth transformed to the society of his betters unclean andnasality and other vices of speech bred in him by the associations of his growing years. (p5)Any young man who has been promoted to a higher social position may learn to give up his nasal accents and other bad habits that have been brought up in him by his early education.19. An invisible law, as strong as gravitation, keeps him within his orbit, arranged thisyear as he was the last; and how his better-clad acquaintances continue to get the things they wear will be for him a mystery till his dying day. (p5)A person’s old habits, as powerful as gravity, make him to t ake control over hisbehaviors…20. It is to fund and capitalize our acquisitions, and live at ease upon the interest of thefound. (p6)The calculation of good habits formed is just like the investment of money in a project, if you can form a good habit in your early years, you can benefit a lot from them and enjoy the comfortable life in the future.21. The more of the details of our daily life we can hand over to the effortless custody ofautomatism, the more our higher powers of mind will be set free for their own proper work. (p6)Most of the trivial items in our life can become a habit and can be taken of our conscious mind which therefore can be used for more important task.22. Full half the time of such a man goes to deciding, or regretting, of matters whichought to be so ingrained in him as practically not to exist for his consciousness at all.(p6)Such man spends not less than half of his time deciding or regretting which should be deeply fixed and really should not all matters for his conscious thinking at all.Lesson 4 The Invisible Japanese Gentlemen1. They spoke to each other rarely in their incomprehensible tongue. (p1)They hardly ever spoke during the meal, and when they did speak, they spoke in a way that the author cannot understand what they are talking about.2. Sometimes the pretty girl who sat in the window beyond gave them a passing glance,but her own problem seemed too serious for her to pay real attention to any in the world except herself and her companion. (p1)Sometimes the pretty girl who sat near window over there gave them a casual glance, but she was so much troubled by her own problem that she couldn’t pay any attentions to others but to herself and her fiancé.3. …… petite in a Regency way, oval like a miniature, though she had a harsh way ofspeaking --- perhaps the accent of the school, Roedean or Cheltenham Ladies’ College, which she not long ago left. (p2)…… her face was small, delicate, and clean, and was as ov al-shaped as a miniature, representing the typical feminine face admired as perfect by Regency time, though she spoke in a firm, commanding tone and an upper-class manner, typical of those who had been educated at a highly prestigious school for upper-class young women, which she graduated not long ago.4. Her companion appeared a little distraught. (p4)Her partner seemed somewhat worried or upset about what to do next.5. I could see them as two miniatures hanging side by side on white wood panels.

(p5)He should have had an easy access to promotion in Nelson’s navy despite some weakness and sensitivities as he had some feminine features which would be admired by people then.7. She deserved a better life. (p6)She could have enjoyed an easier life than toiling as a novelist.8. Yo u know you don’t get on with him. This way we shall be quite independent. (p8)You know you don’t have a good relationship with your uncle. If we do as I have said we shall be quite independent.9. My mother says that writing is a good crutch… (p13)She disapproves of writing as the main thing (a career), but though writing is good only as an auxiliary support.10. a pretty solid crutch (p14)If you should think writing is support, I would argue that it is a pretty solid support. Itcan be the main source of a living.11. I see what you mean. (p26)I understand what you are trying to say.12. I was on the side of his mother. It was a humiliating thought, but I was probably abouther mother’s age. (p26)I agreed with his mother that writing should not be a career, but only a support.Although knowing oneself to be old would cause discomfort and embarrassment, I was actually about her mother’s age and therefore quite in a position to advise her and her future.13. …… “the long defeat of doing nothing well” (p27)…… “the frustration of being unable to write anything good for many years”14. ……, by performance and not by promise. (p27)……, by what you have actually written, not by any indication of potential success in you.15. I didn’t know you’d ever been there. (p29)The polite way of sa ying “I know you have never been there (so how can you write about a place you don’t know?)16. A fresh eye’s terribly important. (p30)It’s all good to see something new.17.

Darling, you’re awfully decorative, but sometimes --- well, you sim ply don’t connect.(p51)You look awfully good.

(p54)…… yielded apologetically to each other in such a manner as if they have dumped into each other in a doorway, as one was going out and the other coming in21. I had thought the two young people matching miniatures, but what a contrast in factthere was.

Their readers were not only people of high social position but also common people. Poets recited poems, women singers sang poems and other ranks of people, including old women and children, read Tang poems. This atmosphere affected foreigners who visited the country at that time. As a result, Tang poetry was introduced to some adjacent countries, like Japan and Vietnam.Tang poetry is a most brilliant page in the history of ancient Chinese literature.
