第一课迎战卡米尔号飓风小约翰。
柯夏克已料到,卡米尔号飓风来势定然凶猛。
就在去年8月17日那个星期天,当卡米尔号飓风越过墨西哥湾向西北进袭之时,收音机和电视里整天不断地播放着飓风警报。
柯夏克一家居住的地方一—密西西比州的高尔夫港——肯定会遭到这场飓风的猛烈袭击。
路易斯安那、密西西比和亚拉巴马三州沿海一带的居民已有将近15万人逃往内陆安全地带。
但约翰就像沿海村落中其他成千上万的人一样,不愿舍弃家园,要他下决心弃家外逃,除非等到他的一家人一—妻子詹妮丝以及他们那七个年龄从三岁到十一岁的孩子一一眼看着就要灾祸临头。
为了找出应付这场风灾的最佳对策,他与父母商量过。
两位老人是早在一个月前就从加利福尼亚迁到这里来,住进柯夏克一家所住的那幢十个房间的屋子里。
他还就此征求过从拉斯韦加斯开车来访的老朋友查理?希尔的意见。
约翰的全部产业就在自己家里(他开办的玛格纳制造公司是设计、研制各种教育玩具和教育用品的。
公司的一切往来函件、设计图纸和工艺模具全都放在一楼)。
37岁的他对飓风的威力是深有体会的。
四年前,他原先拥有的位于高尔夫港以西几英里外的那个家就曾毁于贝翠号飓风(那场风灾前夕柯夏克已将全家搬到一家汽车旅馆过夜)。
不过,当时那幢房子所处的地势偏低,高出海平面仅几英尺。
“我们现在住的这幢房子高了23英尺,,’他对父亲说,“而且距离海边足有250码远。
这幢房子是1915年建造的。
至今还从未受到过飓风的袭击。
我们呆在这儿恐怕是再安全不过了。
”老柯夏克67岁.是个语粗心慈的熟练机械师。
他对儿子的意见表示赞同。
“我们是可以严加防卫。
度过难关的,”他说?“一但发现危险信号,我们还可以赶在天黑之前撤出去。
”为了对付这场飓风,几个男子汉有条不紊地做起准备工作来。
自米水管道可能遭到破坏,他们把浴盆和提俑都盛满水。
飓风也可能造成断电,所以他们检查r手提式收音机和手电筒里的电池以及提灯里的燃料油。
约翰的父亲将一台小发电机搬到楼下门厅里.接上几个灯泡。

Unit 1 Pub Talk and the King’s English人类的一切活动中,只有闲谈最宜于增进友谊,而且是人类特有的一种活动。
动物之间的信息交流,不论其方式何等复杂,也是称不上交谈的。
闲谈的引人人胜之处就在于它没有一个事先定好的话题。
它时而迂回流淌,时而奔腾起伏,时而火花四射,时而热情洋溢,话题最终会扯到什么地方去谁也拿不准。
要是有人觉得“有些话要说”,那定会大煞风景,使闲聊无趣。
闲聊不是为了进行争论。
闲聊中常常会有争论,不过其目的并不是为了说服对方。
闲聊之中是不存在什么输赢胜负的。
事实上,真正善于闲聊的人往往是随时准备让步的。
也许他们偶然间会觉得该把自己最得意的奇闻轶事选出一件插进来讲一讲,但一转眼大家已谈到别处去了,插话的机会随之而失,他们也就听之任之。
或许是由于我从小混迹于英国小酒馆的缘故吧,我觉得酒瞎里的闲聊别有韵味。
酒馆里的朋友对别人的生活毫无了解,他们只是临时凑到一起来的,彼此并无深交。
他们之中也许有人面临婚因破裂,或恋爱失败,或碰到别的什么不顺心的事儿,但别人根本不管这些。
他们就像大仲马笔下的三个火枪手一样,虽然日夕相处,却从不过问彼此的私事,也不去揣摸别人内心的秘密。
有一天晚上的情形正是这样。
人们正漫无边际地东扯西拉,从最普通的凡人俗事谈到有关木星的科学趣闻。
谈了半天也没有一个中心话题,事实上也不需要有一个中心话题。
可突然间大伙儿的话题都集中到了一处,中心话题奇迹般地出现了。
我记不起她那句话是在什么情况下说出来的——她显然不是预先想好把那句话带到酒馆里来说的,那也不是什么非说不可的要紧话——我只知道她那句话是随着大伙儿的话题十分自然地脱口而出的。
“几天前,我听到一个人说‘标准英语’这个词语是带贬义的批评用语,指的是人们应该尽量避免使用的英语。
”此语一出,谈话立即热烈起来。
有人赞成,也有人怒斥,还有人则不以为然。
最后,当然少不了要像处理所有这种场合下的意见分歧一样,由大家说定次日一早去查证一下。

The writer focuses chiefly on action but he also clearly and sympathetically delineates the characters in the story.3. John Koshak, Jr. , is the protagonist in the story.4.

The writer gives order and logical movement to the sequence of happenings by describing a series of actions in the order of their occurrence.7. The story reaches its climax in paragraph 27.8.

Wind and rain now whipped the house. <Strong wind and rain was lashing the house as if with a whip.> Personification : 1. A moment later, the hurricane, in one mighty swipe, lifted the entire roof off the house and skimmed it 40 feet through the air. <The hurricane acted as a very strong person lifting something heavy and throwing it through the air.> 2. It seized a 600, 000-gallon Gulfport oil tank and dumped it 3 1/2miles away. <The hurricane acted as a very strong man lifting something very heavy and dumping it 3 1/2 miles away.>. Ⅺ.Elliptical and short simple sentences generally increase the tempo and speed of the actions being described. Hence in a dramatic narration they serve to heighten tension and help create a sense of danger and urgency. For examples see the text, paragraphs 10-18 and 21-26.Ⅻ. The topic sentence of paragraph 1 is "John Koshak, Jr. ,knew that Hurricane Camille would be bad. " This idea is developed or supported by facts or reasons showing how John Koshak, Jr. , knew that Hurricane Camille would be bad.The last sentence introduces some other characters in he story and serves as a transition to the next important point in the story—why John KoshakJr.,decided not to abandon his home.ⅩⅢ.在给出答案之前,首先将该题中的几个语法术语解释一下.The sentence fragment:片断句.一个合乎语法的完整句子必须具有主语和谓语这两种基本成分.从结构上来说,它应该是可以独立运用的语言单位.片断句是指像短语、从句、同位语以与其他诸如此类不能够独立使用的语言单位.写作时若错误地使用标点符号.将这类不能独立使用的语法结构当成句子分列出来,那便叫做片断句,练习中的第1、第3和第4句就是这样的非完整句,即片断句.The run—on sentence:误用逗号连接句.该断句的地方没有正确地使用标点符号断句,而将两个或两个以上结构上各自独立完整而又互不从属的句子融合在一起成为一个不合语法、结构松散的句子称融合句.如果两个完整的句子中间只用逗号隔开而被错误地并成一个句子,这种句子便叫误用逗号连接句,练习中的第2句即是.The dangling modifier:垂悬修饰语.由非谓语动词<分词、动名词、不定式>组成的短语若使用不当,与其所修饰的成分没有实质上的联系,这种结构便叫垂悬修饰语.垂悬修饰语并非语法上的错误,只是修辞上的毛病,但仍应避免使用这样的结构,尤其是不要使用那些会产生歧义、引起误解的垂悬修饰语.练习中的第5、6、7、8句均含垂悬修饰语.The illogical or faulty parallelism:误用平行句法.误用平行句法指用平行结构来表达并非平行的思想内容.这是应该避免的修辞上的毛病.不能将which或who引导的从句用and 与主句相联.关联连词<both…and,either…or等>只能用于联接句中起同一语法作用的平行成分.练习中的第9、10、11、12句都是误用平行结构的例句.The shift in point of view:角度转换.不必要的甚至错误的角度转换是应该避免的.若非必须如此.一般不由主动语态转换成被动语态.人称与单复数也不应随便转换.练习中的第13、14、15句都是角度转换的例子.练习中的错句可改正如下:The basketball game was canceled because half of the players were in bed with flu.These snakes are dangerous.However,mostsnakes are quite harmless.3.Looking out toward the horizon,she Saw only the old cabin in which Mary was born,a single cottonwood that had escaped the drought and the apparently boundless expanse of sunburned prairie.4.We knew that although the documents have been stolen they have not yet been seen by a foreign agent.5.Last year,after I had graduated from high school.my father put me to work in his office.6.To appreciate the poem,one must read it aloud.7.1 missed that film because l had to stay home to help my mother wash clothes last Sunday.8.Driving across the state,one saw many beautiful lakes.9.Unselfish people are not only happier but also more successful.1O.I finally realized that my daydreaming was not making me beautiful and slender or bringing me friends.11.He is a man of wide experience and also of great popularity among the farmers.12.I am interested in electronics,which is a new field and which offers interesting opportunities 10 one who knows science.13.We carefully swept the room and dusted the furniture and the shelves.14.If one’s mouth is dry,one should eat a lump of sugar or chew gum.15.You must make yourself interesting to the group that listens23 to you and is constantly trying to detect your mistakesⅪV. Omitted.XV.Gale Kills PeopleFour people got killed when a gale swept across several parts of South England and Wales yesterday. A school boy of ten was struck by flying debris and lost his life when the roof of a prefabricated classroom was blown off and the walls caved in. The boy was one of seventy children being led to safety. When the teacher saw the roof beginning to lift, he asked his pupils to follow him to a safe place. Unfortunately, the boy was killed. Another two children were taken to hospital with slight injury. A woman, aged 81, was killed when a chimney, dislodged by a strong wind, fell through the roof of her home. Another woman, a resident on the first floor of a building, was also killed outright by the falling masonry. Some residents were taken to hospital and the rest evacuated. A driver met his death near a filling station when his car ran into a tree that had fallen across the road.Lesson Two MarrakechⅠ . Marrakech: in west central Morocco, at the Northern foot of the high Atlas, 130 miles south of Casablanca, the chief seaport. The city renowned for leather goods, is one of the principal mercial centers of Morocco. It was founded in 1062 and was the capital of Morocco from then until 1147 and again from 1550 to 1660. It was captured by the French in 1912, when its modern growth began. It has extremely hot summers but mild winters. Yearly rainfall is 9 inches and limited to winter months. The city was formerly also called Morocco. Morocco: Located in North Africa, on the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Morocco is the farthest west of all the Arab countries. Rabat is the capital. The estimated population in 1973 was 15,600,000. About 2000 B.C. it was settled by Berber tribes, who have formed the basis of the population ever since. The Arabs invaded Morocco in the 7thcentury, bringing with them Islam. From the end of the 17thcentury until the early 19th century Morocco was almost entirely free from foreign influence. But in 1912, a Franco- Spanish agreement divided Morocco into 4 administrative zones. It gained independence in 1956 and became a constitutional monarchy in 1957. Morocco is a member of the United Nations, the League of Arab States, and the Organization of African Unity. Moroccans are mainly farmers <70%>who try to grow their own food. They often use camels, donkeys and mules to pull their plows. In the south a few tribesmen still, wander from place to place in the desert. Ⅱ.1. Here are five things he describes to show poverty- <a> the burial of the poor inhabitants <b>an Arab Navvy, an employee of the municipality, begging for a piece of bread <c>the miserable lives of the Jews in the ghettoes~ <d>cultivation of the poor soil; <e> the old women carrying fire wood.2. See paragraphs 1 and 2.3. All the imperialists build up their empires by treating thepeople in the colonies as animals instead of as human be rags. 4. Medieval ghettoes were probably like the Jewish quarters in Marrakech--overcrowded, thousands of people living in a narrow street, houses pletely windowless, and the whole area dirty and unhygienic. 5. If Hitler were here, all the Jews would have been massacred. 6. Those who work with their hands are partly invisible. It’s only because of this that the starved countries of Asia and Africa are accepted as tourist resorts. The people are not treated as human beings, and it is on this fact that all colonial empires are in reality founded. 7. See paragraph 18. 8. The old woman was surprised because someone was taking notice of her and treating her as a human being. She accepted her status as an old woman, that is to say, as a beast of burden. 9, Every white man thought. "How much longer can we go on kidding these people? How long before they turn their guns in the other direction?" They knew they could not go on fooling these black people any longer. Some day they would rise up in revolt and free themselves.Ⅲ. 1. Yes, it is. In this essay Orwell denounces the evils of colonialism or imperialism by mercilessly exposing the poverty, misery and degradation of the native people in the colonies. 2. He manages to show that he is outraged at the spectacle of misery, first, through the appropriate use of words second, through the clever choice of the scenes he describes; third, through the tone in which he describes these scenes and finally, by contrasting the indignation at the cruel handling of the donkey with the unconcern towards the fate of the human beings. 3. Because that shows the cruel treatment the donkeys receive evokes a greater feeling of sympathy in the breasts of the white masters than the miserable fate of the people. This contrast have on the reader an effect that the people are not considered nor treated as human beings. 4. Paragraphs 4-7 could as well e after 8-15 as before. Other groups of paragraphs could be rearranged. This indicates that the whole passage is made up of various independent examples or illustrations of the people's poverty and suffering. The central theme--all colonial empires are in reality founded upon this fact--gives unity and cohesion to the whole essay. 5. This essay gives a new insight into imperialism. Yes, he has succeeded in showing that imperialism is an "evil thing". 6. Orwell is good at the appropriate use of simple but forceful words and the clever choice of the scenes he describes. His lucid style and fine attention to significant descriptive details efficiently conveyed to the readers the central idea "all colonial empires are in reality founded upon this fact", the fact that the people are not considered or treated as human beings.IV. 1. The buring-ground is nothing more than a huge piece of wasteland full of mounds of earth looking like a deserted and abandoned piece of land on which a building was going to be put up. 2. All the imperialists build up their empires by treating the people in the colonies like animals <by not treating the people in the colonies as human beings>. 3. They are born. Then for a few years they work, toil and starve. Finally they die and are buried in graves without a name. 4. Sitting with his legs crossed and using a very old-fashioned lathe, a carpenter quickly gives a round shape to the chair-legs he is making. 5. Immediately from their dark hole-like cells everywhere a great number of Jews rushed out wildly excited. 6. Every one of these poor Jews looked on the cigarette as a piece of luxury which they could not possibly afford. 7. However, a white-skinned European is always quite noticeable. 8. If you take a look at the natural scenery in a tropical region, you see everything but the human beings. 9. No one would think of organizing cheap trips for the tourists to visit the poor slum areas <for these trips 42V.Ⅵ.Ⅶ. would not be interesting>.10.life is very hard for ninety percent of the people.With hard backbreaking toil they can produce a little food on the poor soil.11.She took it for granted that as an old woman she was the lowest in the munity,that.she was only fit for doing heavy work like an animal.12.People with brown skinsare almost invisible.13.The Senegales soldiers were wearing ready—made khaki uniforms which hid their beautiful well—built bodies.14.How much longer before they turn their guns around and attack us?. 15.Every white man,the onlookers,the officers on their horses and the white N.C.Os.marching with the black soldiers,had this thought hidden somewhere or other in his mind.Ⅴ.See the translation of the text.Ⅵ.1.chant:words repeated in a monotonous tone of voice 2.navvy:abbreviation of "navigator",a British word meaning an unskilled laborer,as on canals,,roads,etc.3.Stow:put or hide away in a safe place 4.warp:bend,curve,or twist out of shape 5.self-contained:self—sufficient;having within oneself or itself all that is necessary 6.wretched:poor in quality,very inferior 7.mummified:thin and withered,looking like a mummy 8.reach—me—down:<British colloquialism>second—hand or ready—made clothing 9.charger:a horse ridden in battle or on paradeⅦ.cry指因痛苦、忧伤或悲哀而发出悲切的声音,并伴以流泪.weep更具体,强调流泪;sob指呜呜咽咽、一吸一顿地哭泣;wail指无法抑制悲哀而拖长声调痛哭;whimper43 指像受惊的小孩一样声音压抑地、时断时续地哭;moan 则指因悲伤或痛苦而低声地、拖长声调地哀叹. 2.mania本指狂郁精神病所表现出的症状,具体表现为喜怒无常,时哭时笑,行为不能自制;delirium指暂时性精神极端错乱<如酒醉发烧时>,具体表现为烦躁不安、语无伦次和产生幻觉;frenzy是非医学用语,指狂暴不能自制. hysteria在精神病学上指心因性紊乱,表现为容易激动、焦躁不安、感官和运动功能紊乱以与不自觉地模拟眼瞎、耳聋等.用于引申义时,mania指对于某事的爱好达到狂热的程度,成为癖好,如a mania for drinking<嗜酒>;delirium 指极度兴奋,如a delirium of joy<狂喜>;hysteria 指强烈的、不可控制的感情爆发,如:She laughed and cried in her hysteria.<她又是笑又是哭,感情难以控制.>. 3.flash指突发的、短暂而耀眼的闪光;gleam指黑暗中闪现出的一束稳定的光线;sparkle指星星点点的闪光;glitter 指由物体反射出的星星点点的闪光;glisten指外部亮光反射于沾水的平面上而显出的光亮;shimmer指由微波荡漾的水面反照出的柔和的闪光.Ⅷ.1.burying—ground<verbal noun in—ing + noun>:drinking cup, hiding place,diving board,waiting room,freezing point, carving knife,writing desk,typing paper,swimming suit 2.gravestone<noun +noun>:oilwell,silkworm,shirt—sleeves,girl—friend,gaslight,bloodstain,frogman,win—dow—pane 3.mid—air<adjective +noun>:half—brother,black—market, half—pay.darkroom,madman,double—talk,hothouse, handy man 4.orercrowding<adverb +verbal noun in—ing>:dry-cleaning,overeating,oversleeping,deep—freezing, underpricing, underrating,down—grading,up—dating 5.nine—tenths<adj.from a cardinal number +noun,from an44ordinal number> : one-fifth, two-sixths, three-eighths, one-ninthIX. 1.

Shack Dwellers in Old ShanghaiAt the edge of Old Shanghai, there were some areas neglected by the splendid city: they were desolate, dirty, and lay humbly at the foot of high-rise factory chimney. From the point of view of the city residents, these places were not suit- able for men. There, however, did live crowds of creature called human beings. They dwelled in the shacks they built themselves. A shack was made up of mud and dried hay--the former being the ponent of walls and the latter being the roof. Usually there was a small door with a thin wooden board and seldom was there any window. One could easily touch the roof with his hand. The shack was small and dim, thus the door was seldom kept closed. When it rained or blew, there was no more difference inside than outside. How did they manage to live? Some of them were road builders: they dug hard with a pickaxe, pulled a huge stone roller to flatten the road, or dug gutters underground all the day. Some made a living by wheelbarrow. With a load of nearly 500 kilogrammes, they pushed forward sweating all over. Some dragged their rickshaws. And among those shack dwellers were many industrial workers, male and female. When a child grew to be thirteen, he or she started to work in a factory. In short, the vast majority of the people did toil but got a slight gain.Lesson Three Pub Talk and the King’s EnglishⅠ . 1.

The topic sentence of paragraph 1 is "John Koshak, Jr. ,knew that Hurricane Camille would be bad. " This idea is developed or supported by facts or reasons showing how John Koshak, Jr. , knew that Hurricane Camille would be bad.The last sentence introduces some other characters in he story and serves as a transition to the next important point in the story—why John KoshakJr.,decided not to abandon his home.ⅩⅢ.在给出答案之前,首先将该题中的几个语法术语解释一下.The sentence fragment:片断句.一个合乎语法的完整句子必须具有主语和谓语这两种基本成分.从结构上来说,它应该是可以独立运用的语言单位.片断句是指像短语、从句、同位语以与其他诸如此类不能够独立使用的语言单位.写作时若错误地使用标点符号.将这类不能独立使用的语法结构当成句子分列出来,那便叫做片断句,练习中的第1、第3和第4句就是这样的非完整句,即片断句.The run—on sentence:误用逗号连接句.该断句的地方没有正确地使用标点符号断句,而将两个或两个以上结构上各自独立完整而又互不从属的句子融合在一起成为一个不合语法、结构松散的句子称融合句.如果两个完整的句子中间只用逗号隔开而被错误地并成一个句子,这种句子便叫误用逗号连接句,练习中的第2句即是.The dangling modifier:垂悬修饰语.由非谓语动词<分词、动名词、不定式>组成的短语若使用不当,与其所修饰的成分没有实质上的联系,这种结构便叫垂悬修饰语.垂悬修饰语并非语法上的错误,只是修辞上的毛病,但仍应避免使用这样的结构,尤其是不要使用那些会产生歧义、引起误解的垂悬修饰语.练习中的第5、6、7、8句均含垂悬修饰语.The illogical or faulty parallelism:误用平行句法.误用平行句法指用平行结构来表达并非平行的思想内容.这是应该避免的修辞上的毛病.不能将which或who引导的从句用and 与主句相联.关联连词<both…and,either…or等>只能用于联接句中起同一语法作用的平行成分.练习中的第9、10、11、12句都是误用平行结构的例句.The shift in point of view:角度转换.不必要的甚至错误的角度转换是应该避免的.若非必须如此.一般不由主动语态转换成被动语态.人称与单复数也不应随便转换.练习中的第13、14、15句都是角度转换的例子.练习中的错句可改正如下:The basketball game was canceled because half of the players were in bed with flu.These snakes are dangerous.However,mostsnakes are quite harmless.3.Looking out toward the horizon,she Saw only the old cabin in which Mary was born,a single cottonwood that had escaped the drought and the apparently boundless expanse of sunburned prairie.4.We knew that although the documents have been stolen they have not yet been seen by a foreign agent.5.Last year,after I had graduated from high school.my father put me to work in his office.6.To appreciate the poem,one must read it aloud.7.1 missed that film because l had to stay home to help my mother wash clothes last Sunday.8.Driving across the state,one saw many beautiful lakes.9.Unselfish people are not only happier but also more successful.1O.I finally realized that my daydreaming was not making me beautiful and slender or bringing me friends.11.He is a man of wide experience and also of great popularity among the farmers.12.I am interested in electronics,which is a new field and which offers interesting opportunities 10 one who knows science.13.We carefully swept the room and dusted the furniture and the shelves.14.If one’s mouth is dry,one should eat a lump of sugar or chew gum.15.You must make yourself interesting to the group that listens23 to you and is constantly trying to detect your mistakesⅪV. Omitted.XV.Gale Kills PeopleFour people got killed when a gale swept across several parts of South England and Wales yesterday. A school boy of ten was struck by flying debris and lost his life when the roof of a prefabricated classroom was blown off and the walls caved in. The boy was one of seventy children being led to safety. When the teacher saw the roof beginning to lift, he asked his pupils to follow him to a safe place. Unfortunately, the boy was killed. Another two children were taken to hospital with slight injury. A woman, aged 81, was killed when a chimney, dislodged by a strong wind, fell through the roof of her home. Another woman, a resident on the first floor of a building, was also killed outright by the falling masonry. Some residents were taken to hospital and the rest evacuated. A driver met his death near a filling station when his car ran into a tree that had fallen across the road.Lesson Two MarrakechⅠ . Marrakech: in west central Morocco, at the Northern foot of the high Atlas, 130 miles south of Casablanca, the chief seaport. The city renowned for leather goods, is one of the principal mercial centers of Morocco. It was founded in 1062 and was the capital of Morocco from then until 1147 and again from 1550 to 1660. It was captured by the French in 1912, when its modern growth began. It has extremely hot summers but mild winters. Yearly rainfall is 9 inches and limited to winter months. The city was formerly also called Morocco. Morocco: Located in North Africa, on the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Morocco is the farthest west of all the Arab countries. Rabat is the capital. The estimated population in 1973 was 15,600,000. About 2000 B.C. it was settled by Berber tribes, who have formed the basis of the population ever since. The Arabs invaded Morocco in the 7thcentury, bringing with them Islam. From the end of the 17thcentury until the early 19th century Morocco was almost entirely free from foreign influence. But in 1912, a Franco- Spanish agreement divided Morocco into 4 administrative zones. It gained independence in 1956 and became a constitutional monarchy in 1957. Morocco is a member of the United Nations, the League of Arab States, and the Organization of African Unity. Moroccans are mainly farmers <70%>who try to grow their own food. They often use camels, donkeys and mules to pull their plows. In the south a few tribesmen still, wander from place to place in the desert. Ⅱ.1. Here are five things he describes to show poverty- <a> the burial of the poor inhabitants <b>an Arab Navvy, an employee of the municipality, begging for a piece of bread <c>the miserable lives of the Jews in the ghettoes~ <d>cultivation of the poor soil; <e> the old women carrying fire wood.2. See paragraphs 1 and 2.3. All the imperialists build up their empires by treating thepeople in the colonies as animals instead of as human be rags. 4. Medieval ghettoes were probably like the Jewish quarters in Marrakech--overcrowded, thousands of people living in a narrow street, houses pletely windowless, and the whole area dirty and unhygienic. 5. If Hitler were here, all the Jews would have been massacred. 6. Those who work with their hands are partly invisible. It’s only because of this that the starved countries of Asia and Africa are accepted as tourist resorts. The people are not treated as human beings, and it is on this fact that all colonial empires are in reality founded. 7. See paragraph 18. 8. The old woman was surprised because someone was taking notice of her and treating her as a human being. She accepted her status as an old woman, that is to say, as a beast of burden. 9, Every white man thought. "How much longer can we go on kidding these people? How long before they turn their guns in the other direction?" They knew they could not go on fooling these black people any longer. Some day they would rise up in revolt and free themselves.Ⅲ. 1. Yes, it is. In this essay Orwell denounces the evils of colonialism or imperialism by mercilessly exposing the poverty, misery and degradation of the native people in the colonies. 2. He manages to show that he is outraged at the spectacle of misery, first, through the appropriate use of words second, through the clever choice of the scenes he describes; third, through the tone in which he describes these scenes and finally, by contrasting the indignation at the cruel handling of the donkey with the unconcern towards the fate of the human beings. 3. Because that shows the cruel treatment the donkeys receive evokes a greater feeling of sympathy in the breasts of the white masters than the miserable fate of the people. This contrast have on the reader an effect that the people are not considered nor treated as human beings. 4. Paragraphs 4-7 could as well e after 8-15 as before. Other groups of paragraphs could be rearranged. This indicates that the whole passage is made up of various independent examples or illustrations of the people's poverty and suffering. The central theme--all colonial empires are in reality founded upon this fact--gives unity and cohesion to the whole essay. 5. This essay gives a new insight into imperialism. Yes, he has succeeded in showing that imperialism is an "evil thing". 6. Orwell is good at the appropriate use of simple but forceful words and the clever choice of the scenes he describes. His lucid style and fine attention to significant descriptive details efficiently conveyed to the readers the central idea "all colonial empires are in reality founded upon this fact", the fact that the people are not considered or treated as human beings.IV. 1. The buring-ground is nothing more than a huge piece of wasteland full of mounds of earth looking like a deserted and abandoned piece of land on which a building was going to be put up. 2. All the imperialists build up their empires by treating the people in the colonies like animals <by not treating the people in the colonies as human beings>. 3. They are born. Then for a few years they work, toil and starve. Finally they die and are buried in graves without a name. 4. Sitting with his legs crossed and using a very old-fashioned lathe, a carpenter quickly gives a round shape to the chair-legs he is making. 5. Immediately from their dark hole-like cells everywhere a great number of Jews rushed out wildly excited. 6. Every one of these poor Jews looked on the cigarette as a piece of luxury which they could not possibly afford. 7. However, a white-skinned European is always quite noticeable. 8. If you take a look at the natural scenery in a tropical region, you see everything but the human beings. 9. No one would think of organizing cheap trips for the tourists to visit the poor slum areas <for these trips 42V.Ⅵ.Ⅶ. would not be interesting>.10.life is very hard for ninety percent of the people.With hard backbreaking toil they can produce a little food on the poor soil.11.She took it for granted that as an old woman she was the lowest in the munity,that.she was only fit for doing heavy work like an animal.12.People with brown skinsare almost invisible.13.The Senegales soldiers were wearing ready—made khaki uniforms which hid their beautiful well—built bodies.14.How much longer before they turn their guns around and attack us?. 15.Every white man,the onlookers,the officers on their horses and the white N.C.Os.marching with the black soldiers,had this thought hidden somewhere or other in his mind.Ⅴ.See the translation of the text.Ⅵ.1.chant:words repeated in a monotonous tone of voice 2.navvy:abbreviation of "navigator",a British word meaning an unskilled laborer,as on canals,,roads,etc.3.Stow:put or hide away in a safe place 4.warp:bend,curve,or twist out of shape 5.self-contained:self—sufficient;having within oneself or itself all that is necessary 6.wretched:poor in quality,very inferior 7.mummified:thin and withered,looking like a mummy 8.reach—me—down:<British colloquialism>second—hand or ready—made clothing 9.charger:a horse ridden in battle or on paradeⅦ.cry指因痛苦、忧伤或悲哀而发出悲切的声音,并伴以流泪.weep更具体,强调流泪;sob指呜呜咽咽、一吸一顿地哭泣;wail指无法抑制悲哀而拖长声调痛哭;whimper43 指像受惊的小孩一样声音压抑地、时断时续地哭;moan 则指因悲伤或痛苦而低声地、拖长声调地哀叹. 2.mania本指狂郁精神病所表现出的症状,具体表现为喜怒无常,时哭时笑,行为不能自制;delirium指暂时性精神极端错乱<如酒醉发烧时>,具体表现为烦躁不安、语无伦次和产生幻觉;frenzy是非医学用语,指狂暴不能自制. hysteria在精神病学上指心因性紊乱,表现为容易激动、焦躁不安、感官和运动功能紊乱以与不自觉地模拟眼瞎、耳聋等.用于引申义时,mania指对于某事的爱好达到狂热的程度,成为癖好,如a mania for drinking<嗜酒>;delirium 指极度兴奋,如a delirium of joy<狂喜>;hysteria 指强烈的、不可控制的感情爆发,如:She laughed and cried in her hysteria.<她又是笑又是哭,感情难以控制.>. 3.flash指突发的、短暂而耀眼的闪光;gleam指黑暗中闪现出的一束稳定的光线;sparkle指星星点点的闪光;glitter 指由物体反射出的星星点点的闪光;glisten指外部亮光反射于沾水的平面上而显出的光亮;shimmer指由微波荡漾的水面反照出的柔和的闪光.Ⅷ.1.burying—ground<verbal noun in—ing + noun>:drinking cup, hiding place,diving board,waiting room,freezing point, carving knife,writing desk,typing paper,swimming suit 2.gravestone<noun +noun>:oilwell,silkworm,shirt—sleeves,girl—friend,gaslight,bloodstain,frogman,win—dow—pane 3.mid—air<adjective +noun>:half—brother,black—market, half—pay.darkroom,madman,double—talk,hothouse, handy man 4.orercrowding<adverb +verbal noun in—ing>:dry-cleaning,overeating,oversleeping,deep—freezing, underpricing, underrating,down—grading,up—dating 5.nine—tenths<adj.from a cardinal number +noun,from an44ordinal number> : one-fifth, two-sixths, three-eighths, one-ninthIX. 1.

"mummify" as in "All of them are mummified with age and the sun "--", a forceful word indicating what a miserable state those women are in.6. "hobble" as in"'" the file of old women had hobbled past the house with their firewood "'", indicating that these women could not walk properly because of the heavy load they were carrying. 7. "tip" as in """ its master tips it into theditch """, showing how casually a master deals with his dead dog which has served him devotedly.8.

Leaving the door of the safe unlocked and taking the leather bag of coins, I walked down the street toward the bank.Ⅺ.1."Life on the farm is an eternal battle against nature" is the topic sentence. This paragraph lacks unity. It is a bad piece of writing. The writer of this paragraph has pletely forgotten what he had started out to say. Instead of being an "eternal battle", life in this paragraph be-es a pleasant and exciting experience--which it probably is, but that is not what the writer set out to prove. "There are three reasons why I like Japanese food" is the topic sentence. This paragraph lacks unity because the writer introduces facts and ideas irrelevant to the topic stated in his opening sentence, e. g. "However, most Japanese love rice. One of my Japanese friends has at least two bowls of rice at every meal. " and "Also, from the male point of view, Japanese restaurants are attractive for another reason--the beautiful little doll-like waitresses, who bow and smile shyly as they serve your food.

Omitted. ⅪⅤ. Shack Dwellers in Old ShanghaiAt the edge of Old Shanghai, there were some areas neglected by the splendid city: they were desolate, dirty, and lay humbly at the foot of high-rise factory chimney. From the point of view of the city residents, these places were not suit- able for men. There, however, did live crowds of creature called human beings. They dwelled in the shacks they built themselves. A shack was made up of mud and dried hay--the former being the ponent of walls and the latter being the roof. Usually there was a small door with a thin wooden board and seldom was there any window. One could easily touch the roof with his hand. The shack was small and dim, thus the door was seldom kept closed. When it rained or blew, there was no more difference inside than outside. How did they manage to live? Some of them were road builders: they dug hard with a pickaxe, pulled a huge stone roller to flatten the road, or dug gutters underground all the day. Some made a living by wheelbarrow. With a load of nearly 500 kilogrammes, they pushed forward sweating all over. Some dragged their rickshaws. And among those shack dwellers were many industrial workers, male and female. When a child grew to be thirteen, he or she started to work in a factory. In short, the vast majority of the people did toil but got a slight gain.Lesson Three Pub Talk and the King’s EnglishⅠ . 1.

In 1826 he married Jane Welsh, a well-informed and ambitious woman who did much to further his career.。

Unit 1 Pub Talk and the King’s English人类的一切活动中,只有闲谈最宜于增进友谊,而且是人类特有的一种活动。
动物之间的信息交流,不论其方式何等复杂,也是称不上交谈的。
闲谈的引人人胜之处就在于它没有一个事先定好的话题。
它时而迂回流淌,时而奔腾起伏,时而火花四射,时而热情洋溢,话题最终会扯到什么地方去谁也拿不准。
要是有人觉得“有些话要说”,那定会大煞风景,使闲聊无趣。
闲聊不是为了进行争论。
闲聊中常常会有争论,不过其目的并不是为了说服对方。
闲聊之中是不存在什么输赢胜负的。
事实上,真正善于闲聊的人往往是随时准备让步的。
也许他们偶然间会觉得该把自己最得意的奇闻轶事选出一件插进来讲一讲,但一转眼大家已谈到别处去了,插话的机会随之而失,他们也就听之任之。
或许是由于我从小混迹于英国小酒馆的缘故吧,我觉得酒瞎里的闲聊别有韵味。
酒馆里的朋友对别人的生活毫无了解,他们只是临时凑到一起来的,彼此并无深交。
他们之中也许有人面临婚因破裂,或恋爱失败,或碰到别的什么不顺心的事儿,但别人根本不管这些。
他们就像大仲马笔下的三个火枪手一样,虽然日夕相处,却从不过问彼此的私事,也不去揣摸别人内心的秘密。
有一天晚上的情形正是这样。
人们正漫无边际地东扯西拉,从最普通的凡人俗事谈到有关木星的科学趣闻。
谈了半天也没有一个中心话题,事实上也不需要有一个中心话题。
可突然间大伙儿的话题都集中到了一处,中心话题奇迹般地出现了。
我记不起她那句话是在什么情况下说出来的——她显然不是预先想好把那句话带到酒馆里来说的,那也不是什么非说不可的要紧话——我只知道她那句话是随着大伙儿的话题十分自然地脱口而出的。
“几天前,我听到一个人说‘标准英语’这个词语是带贬义的批评用语,指的是人们应该尽量避免使用的英语。
”此语一出,谈话立即热烈起来。
有人赞成,也有人怒斥,还有人则不以为然。
最后,当然少不了要像处理所有这种场合下的意见分歧一样,由大家说定次日一早去查证一下。

⾼级英语第三版第⼆册张汉熙1-6-8课课后答案Lesson One1.And it is an activity only of humans.And conversation is an activity found only among human beings.2.Conversation is not for making a point.Conversation is not for persuading others to accept our ideas or points of views.3.In fact, the best conversationalists are those who are prepared to lose.In fact , people who are good at conversation will not argue to win or force others to accept his ideas.4.Bar friends are not deeply involved in each other’s lives.People who meet each other for a drink in the bar of a pub are not close friends for they are not deeply absorbed in each other’s private lives.5.....it could still go ignorantly on ...The conversation could go on without anybody knowing who was right or wrong.6.There are cattle in the fields ,but we sit down to beef.These animals are called cattle when they are alive and feed in the fields , but when we sit down at the table to eat, we call their meet beef.7.The new ruling class had built a cultural barrier against him by building their French against his ownlanguage.The new ruling class by using French instead of English made it hard for the English to accept or absorb the culture of the rulers.8.English had come royally into its own.English received proper recognition and was used by the King once more.9.The phrase has always been used a little pejoratively and even facetiously by the lower classes.The phrase , the King’s English ,has always been used disrespectfully and jokingly by the lower classes.(The working people often mock the proper and formal language of the educated people.)10.The rebellion against a cultural dominance is still there.As the early Saxon peasants , the working people still have a spirit of opposition to the cultural authority of the ruling class.11.There is always a great danger that “ words will harden into things for us. “There is always a great danger , as Carlyle put it , that we might forget that words are only symbols and take them for things they are supposed to represent.a.However intricate the ways in which animals communicate with each other, they do not indulge in anythingthat deserves the name of conversation.不管动物之间的交流⽅式多么复杂,它们不能参与到称得上是交谈的任何活动中。

柯夏克已料到,卡米尔号飓风来势定然凶猛。
就在去年8月17日那个星期天,当卡米尔号飓风越过墨西哥湾向西北进袭之时,收音机和电视里整天不断地播放着飓风警报。
柯夏克一家居住的地方一—密西西比州的高尔夫港——肯定会遭到这场飓风的猛烈袭击.路易斯安那、密西西比和亚拉巴马三州沿海一带的居民已有将近15万人逃往内陆安全地带。
但约翰就像沿海村落中其他成千上万的人一样,不愿舍弃家园,要他下决心弃家外逃,除非等到他的一家人一-妻子詹妮丝以及他们那七个年龄从三岁到十一岁的孩子一一眼看着就要灾祸临头。
为了找出应付这场风灾的最佳对策,他与父母商量过。
两位老人是早在一个月前就从加利福尼亚迁到这里来,住进柯夏克一家所住的那幢十个房间的屋子里.他还就此征求过从拉斯韦加斯开车来访的老朋友查理?希尔的意见。
约翰的全部产业就在自己家里(他开办的玛格纳制造公司是设计、研制各种教育玩具和教育用品的。
公司的一切往来函件、设计图纸和工艺模具全都放在一楼)。
37岁的他对飓风的威力是深有体会的.四年前,他原先拥有的位于高尔夫港以西几英里外的那个家就曾毁于贝翠号飓风(那场风灾前夕柯夏克已将全家搬到一家汽车旅馆过夜)。
不过,当时那幢房子所处的地势偏低,高出海平面仅几英尺。
“我们现在住的这幢房子高了23英尺,,’他对父亲说,“而且距离海边足有250码远。
这幢房子是1915年建造的。
至今还从未受到过飓风的袭击。
我们呆在这儿恐怕是再安全不过了。
"老柯夏克67岁.是个语粗心慈的熟练机械师。

高级英语2第三版_张汉熙_课文翻译

Unit 1 Pub Talk and the King’s English人类的一切活动中,只有闲谈最宜于增进友谊,而且是人类特有的一种活动。
动物之间的信息交流,不论其方式何等复杂,也是称不上交谈的。
闲谈的引人人胜之处就在于它没有一个事先定好的话题。
它时而迂回流淌,时而奔腾起伏,时而火花四射,时而热情洋溢,话题最终会扯到什么地方去谁也拿不准。
要是有人觉得“有些话要说”,那定会大煞风景,使闲聊无趣。
闲聊不是为了进行争论。
闲聊中常常会有争论,不过其目的并不是为了说服对方。
闲聊之中是不存在什么输赢胜负的。
事实上,真正善于闲聊的人往往是随时准备让步的。
也许他们偶然间会觉得该把自己最得意的奇闻轶事选出一件插进来讲一讲,但一转眼大家已谈到别处去了,插话的机会随之而失,他们也就听之任之。
或许是由于我从小混迹于英国小酒馆的缘故吧,我觉得酒瞎里的闲聊别有韵味。
酒馆里的朋友对别人的生活毫无了解,他们只是临时凑到一起来的,彼此并无深交。
他们之中也许有人面临婚因破裂,或恋爱失败,或碰到别的什么不顺心的事儿,但别人根本不管这些。
他们就像大仲马笔下的三个火枪手一样,虽然日夕相处,却从不过问彼此的私事,也不去揣摸别人内心的秘密。
有一天晚上的情形正是这样。
人们正漫无边际地东扯西拉,从最普通的凡人俗事谈到有关木星的科学趣闻。
谈了半天也没有一个中心话题,事实上也不需要有一个中心话题。
可突然间大伙儿的话题都集中到了一处,中心话题奇迹般地出现了。
我记不起她那句话是在什么情况下说出来的——她显然不是预先想好把那句话带到酒馆里来说的,那也不是什么非说不可的要紧话——我只知道她那句话是随着大伙儿的话题十分自然地脱口而出的。
“几天前,我听到一个人说‘标准英语’这个词语是带贬义的批评用语,指的是人们应该尽量避免使用的英语。
”此语一出,谈话立即热烈起来。
有人赞成,也有人怒斥,还有人则不以为然。
最后,当然少不了要像处理所有这种场合下的意见分歧一样,由大家说定次日一早去查证一下。
