Reading Comprehension (2%x 15= 30%)Passage OneI am the owner of a small clothing store. Three months ago I decided to move my store to Glendale, another area of town, because business was not very good. Now I rent store to space in an old building .The new location in Glendale is excellent，land my sales have improved a lot. (The utilities are also cheaper!) There is a high school nearby, and many of the students come to my store to buy their clothes. This location has other advantages, too. It is closer to my home, and there is a food store on the next block, so it is convenient for me to go shopping after work.The size of my new store is better too. It is much bigger, and there is a lot of storage space. But the building was not in very good condition and I had to make improvements. The paint was old and dirty, and I had to pick a new color and paint all of the walls I hired a man to build new wooden dressing rooms. I also made new curtains for the rooms and the windows. I am completely satisfied with the store now. Unfortunately, I leaned last week that the owner wants to sell the building—-after all my hard work! How did I lean this? I came to work Friday and saw a"For Sale" sign in front of my store.31.'

The phrase “For Sale" means:___.A. to be hiredB. to be closed downC. to be rentedD. to be soldPassage Two .The multi-billion-dollars Western pop music industry is under fire. It is being blamed by the United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide, "The most worrying development is a culture of drug-friendliness "says the UN’s International Narcotics Control Board in a report released last year.The 74-page study says the pop music, as a global industry, is by far the most influential trend-setter for young people of most cultures. "Some songs encourage people to take drugs-Certain pop stars make statements and set examples as if the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes were anormal and acceptable part of a person's lifestyle," the study says.Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems to survive despite the occasional shock of death by overdose (过量用药) . "Such incidents end to be seen as an occasion to mourn(哀悼) the loss of a role model,and not an opportunity to face the deadly effect of drug use," it notes. Since the 1970s, several internationally famous singer and movie stars--including Elvis Presley, Janice Jophlin, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Jonathan Melvin and Andy Gibbs-have died of either drug abuse or drug related illnesses. With the globalization of popular music, messages promoting drug abuse are now reaching beyond their countries of origin. "In most countries, the names of certain pop stars have become familiar to the members of every household," the study says.The UN study also blames the media for its description of certain drug incidents, which encourages rather than prevents drug abuse. "Over the past years, we have seen how drug abuse is increasingly regarded as being even attractive," says Hamid Ghodse, president of the Board. "Powerful pressure groups run political campaigns aimed at legalizing controlled drugs," he says. Ghodse also points out that all these developments have created an environment which is tolerable of or even favorable to drug abuse and spoils international drug prevention efforts currently under way.The study focuses on demand reduction and prevention within an environment that has become tolerant of drug abuse.The Board calls on governments to do their legal and moral duties, and to act against the pro-drug(赞成吸毒)messages of the youth culture to which young people increasingly are being exposed.36. Which of the following statements does the author tend to agree with?A. The use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes is an acceptable part of a person's lifestyle.B. The spreading of pop music may cause drug abuse to beyond country boundaries.C. No efforts have been made to prevent the spreading of drug abuse.D. Governments have no ability at act against the pro-drug messages of the youth culture.37. The expression "under fire" in the first paragraph means___.A. in an urgent situationB. facing some problemsC. being criticizedD. in trouble38. From the third paragraph, we learn that the youth____.A. tend to mourn the pop stars who died of overdose as role modesB. are shocked to know even pop stars may abuse drugsC. try to face the deadly effect of drug useD. may stop abusing drugs39. Which of the following is not mentioned as tolerant of drug abuse?A. The spreading of pop music.B. The media.C. Political campaigns run by powerful pressure groups.D. The low price of some drugs.40. According to the passage, pop music___.A. has a great influence on young people of most culturesB. attracts a small number of young peopleC. is not a profitable industryD. is alone responsible for drug abusePassageThreeOne of the most popular literary figures -in American literature -is -a woman who spent almost half of her life in China, a country on a continent thousands of miles from the United States. In her life time she earned her country's most highly acclaimed literary award, the Pulitzer Prize, and also the 'most prestigious form of literary recognition in the world, the Nobel Prize for Literature.Pearl S. Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime because of her prolific output, which consisted of some eighty-five published works, including several dozen novels, six collections of short stories, fourteen books for children, and more than a dozen works of nonfiction. When she was eighty years old, some twenty-five volumes were awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China, the land in which she spent so much of her life.Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and the West. As the product of those two cultures she became, as she described herself, "mentally bifocal". Her unique background made her into an unusually interesting and versatile human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that we are in fact meeting three separate people: a wife and mother, an internationally famous writer, and a humanitarian and philanthropist.One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without leaning about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer Prizes,Pearl Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author, is a captivating subject of study.41. What is the author's main purpose in writing the passage?A. To offer a criticism of the works of Pearl Buck.B. To illustrate Pearl Buck's views on Chinese literature.C. To illustrate the background and diverse interests of Pearl Buck.D. To discuss Pearl Buck's influence on the cultures of the East and the West.42. According to the passage, Pearl Buck was an unusual figure in American literature in that she___.A. wrote extensively about a very different cultureB. published half of her books abroadC. won more awards than any other woman of her timeD.achieved her first success very late in life43. According to the passage, Pearl Buck described herself as "mentally bifocal "to suggest that she was___.A. capable of resolving the difference between two distinct linguist systemsB. keenly aware of how the past could influence the futureC. capable of producing literary works of interest rest to both adults and childrenD. equally familiar with two different cultural environments44. The word "prolific " in Line 6 is closest in meaning to which of the flowing?A. influential.B. impressive.C. fruitful.D. outstanding.45. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. All of Pearl Buck's books were written in China.B. Pearl Buck won several literary awards for her works.C. Pearl Buck knew both American and Chinese cultures very well.D. One has to study the different aspects of Pearl Buck in order to understand her well.IV. Fill in the blanks with the words given below, changing the form if necessary.

鲍勃·迪伦诺奖演讲中英文

鲍勃·迪伦诺奖演讲中英文鲍勃·迪伦（资料图）鲍勃·迪伦诺奖演讲：我从未自问“我的歌是文学吗”瑞典当地时间12月10日下午4点30分，2016年诺贝尔奖颁奖仪式在瑞典斯德哥尔摩音乐厅正式举行。

文学奖得主鲍勃·迪伦因事未能出席。

此前，鲍勃·迪伦已提前知会诺奖评委会，他会缺席这次领奖，而由有着“朋克教母”之称的美国女歌手、诗人帕蒂·史密斯代为领奖，并演唱鲍勃·迪伦1963年经典作品《大雨将至》。

他的获奖感言由美国驻瑞典大使代为朗读。

以下为凤凰文化全文编译的鲍勃·迪伦获奖感言：很抱歉，我没能与你们在一起，但请知道，在精神上，我绝对与你们同在，很荣幸获得了这么一个有声望的奖。

被授予诺贝尔文学奖，是我从来不敢想象或预见到的事情。

从小，我就熟悉、阅读并受益于那些被认为值得获得该项殊荣的人的作品：吉卜林、托马斯·曼、赛珍珠、加缪、海明威这些文学巨人总是给人深刻的印象，他们的作品在学校课堂上被教授，被收藏在世界各地的图书馆，被人们用虔诚的语调谈论着。

现在我加入这样的名列，真的难以言说。

我不知道这些男人和女人们是否曾经想过自己能够获得诺贝尔文学奖，但我想，在这个世界的任何地方，任何写过一本书、一首诗、或是一部戏剧的人，在内心深处都会拥有这么一个秘密的梦想。

这个梦想被埋藏得太深，他们甚至都不知道它在那里。

有人曾告诉我，我不可能获得诺贝尔奖，我也不得不认为这个几率与我站在月球上的几率相同。

事实上，在我出生的那一年和随后的几年，世界上没有一个人被认为优秀得可以赢得诺贝尔奖。

所以，我认为，至少可以说，我现在属于这个非常少数的群体。

收到这个令人惊讶的消息时，我正在路上。

我花了好几分钟才确定它没错。

我开始回想起威廉·莎士比亚这位伟大的文学人物。

我估计他认为自己是一个剧作家。

他正在写文学作品的这个想法不太可能进入他的脑子。

他的文字是为舞台而写，是用来说的，而不是阅读的。

pearl S. Buck

赛珍珠(1892－1973)女。

出生于美国弗吉尼亚州，3个月时即被身为传教士的双亲带到中国。

在双语环境中长大，是以中文为母语之一的著名美国作家。

曾回美四年接受高等教育。

自1919年至1935年，她与丈夫卜凯(J. L. Buck) 长期居住在所执教的金陵大学分配给他们的两层楼房里。

在这里她写出了于1938年荣获诺贝尔文学奖的长篇小说《大地(Great Earth) 三部曲》等小说，并最早将《水浒传》翻译成英文在西方出版。

一生著译作品70余部。

她病逝后，按其遗愿，墓碑上只镌刻“赛珍珠”三个汉字。

反对传教的教师1919年下半年，赛珍珠随丈夫卜凯来到南京，受聘于美国教会所办的金陵大学，并住进了校内一幢单门独院的小楼。

在赛珍珠和卜凯三、四十年代先后离开中国之前，一直居住在这里(即今平仓巷5号)。

卜凯(J.L.Buck)是一位农学家，教授农业技术和农场管理的课程，创办了金大农业经济系并任系主任，因出版《中国农家经济》等书而被视为美国的中国问题专家。

赛珍珠则在金陵大学外语系任教，并先后在东南大学、中央大学等校兼职教授教育学、英文等课。

她既要备课、批改作用，又要参与社会工作，会见中外各界人士，还要修剪家中花园的大片花草，忙得不亦乐乎。

在举行孙中山奉安大典期间，赛珍珠即在家中腾出地方，让中国驻美大使施肇基博士和为孙中山遗体作防腐处理的泰勒博士住了进来。

徐志摩、梅兰芳、胡适、林语堂、老舍等人都曾是她家的座上客。

赛珍珠最喜欢教的课是英文，因为这门课有着极大的发挥空间，可以充分“表现”她的渊博学识和过人的口才。

当然也曾有学生认为她上英文课是“海阔天空，离题万里”而告到了校长室去。

她自认为“上得较为逊色”的是宗教课。

在给纽约传教董事会的工作汇报中，赛珍珠直言不讳地说：“对在课堂上传授宗教知识的整套方法，我深表不满。

”她认为“和正规的宗教课相比，在教育学课上传授宗教知识则更胜一筹”。

这引起了董事会的不满，董事会很不客气地告诫赛珍珠：“只有正规地传授神学才算正道。

Pearl’s Special Contributions
In 1942, Pearl and Richard founded the East and West Association, dedicated to cultural exchange and understanding between Asia and the West. In 1949, outraged that existing adoption services considered Asian and mixed-race children unadoptable, Pearl established Welcome House, the first international, inter-racial adoption agency; in the nearly five decades of its work, Welcome House has assisted in the placement of over five thousand children. In 1964, to provide support for Amerasian children who were not eligible for adoption, Pearl also established the Pearl S. Buck Foundation, which provides sponsorship funding for thousands of children in half-a-dozen Asian countries. 11

赛珍珠英文简介(introduciton of pearl s buck)

One of the most popular American authors of her day, humanitarian, crusader for women's rights, editor of Asia magazine, philanthropist, noted for her novels of life in China. Pearl S. Buck was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1938. The decision of the Swedish Academy stirred controversy, especially among critics who believed that Buck lacked the stature the Nobel Prize was intended to confirm. Nowadays Buck's books are generally considered dated although attempts have been made to rehabilitate her work."One does not live half a life in Asia without return. When it would be I did not know, nor even where it would be, or to what cause. In our changing world nothing changes more than geography. The friendly country of China, the home of my childhood and youth, is for the time being forbidden country. I refuse to call it enemy country. The people in my memory are too kind and the land too beautiful." (from A Bridge for Passing, 1963)Pearl S. Buck was born in Hillsboro, West Virginia. She spent her youth in China, in Chinkiang on the Yangtse River. She learned to speak Chinese before she could speak English. Her parents were missionaries. Buck's father, Absalom Sydenstricker, was a humorless, scholarly man who spent years translating the Bible from Greek to Chinese. Her mother, the former Caroline Stulting, had travelled widely in her youth and had a fondness for literature. Buck's life in China was not always pleasant. When she was only a child, the family was forced to flee from the rebel forces of the Boxer Rebellion.After being educated by her mother and by a Chinese tutor, who was a Confucian scholar, Buck was sent to a boarding school in Shanghai (1907-09) at the age of fifteen. She also worked for the Door of Hope, a shelter for Chinese slave girls and prostitutes. Buck continued her education in the United States at Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Virginia, where she studied psychology. After graduating in 1914, she returned to China as a teacher for the Presbyterian Board of Missions. Her mother was seriouslyill and Buck spent two years taking care of her.Buck married Dr. John Lossing Buck, an agricultural expert, devoted to his work. When her mother recovered, they settled in a village in the North China. Buck worked as a teacher and interpreter for her husband and travelled through the countryside. During this period China took steps toward liberal reform, especially through the May 4th Movement of 1917 to 1921. In the 1920s the Bucks moved to Nanking, where she taught English and American literature at the university. In 1924 she returned to the United States to seek medical care for her first daughter, who was mentally retarded. In 1926 she received her M.A. in literature from Cornell University.The Bucks went back to China in 1927. During the civil war, they were evacuated to Japan – Buck never returned to China. In 1935 Buck divorced her first husband and married her publisher and the president of John Day Company, Richard Walsh, with whom she moved to Pennsylvania.As a writer Buck started with the novel EAST WIND: WEST WIND (1930), which received critical recognition. She had earlier published autobiographical writings in magazines and a story entitled 'A Chinese Woman Speaks' in the Asia Magazine. Her breakthrough novel, THE GOOD EARTH, appeared in 1931. Its style, a combination of biblical prose and the Chinese narrative saga, increased the dignity of its characters. The book gained a wide audience, and was made into a motion picture.In 1936 Buck was made a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters. She became in 1938 the third American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, following Sinclair Lewis and Eugene O'Neill. In 1951 she was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters. During World War II she lectured and wrote on democracy and American attitudes toward Asia.It has been said, that Buck introduced the theme of women's corporality into 20th century literature. Another major theme was interracial love. Through her personal experiences, Buck had much first-hand knowledge of the relationships between men and women from differentcultures. In THE HIDDEN FLOWER (1952) a Japanese family is overset when the daughter falls in love with an American soldier. THE ANGRY WIFE (1949) was about the love of Bettina, a former slave, and Tom, a southerner who fought for the army of the North.Buck and Walsh were active in humanitarian causes through the East and West Association, which was devoted to mutual understanding between the peoples of Asia and the United States, Welcome House, and The Pearl Buck Foundation. A friend of Eleanor Roosevelt, Margaret Mead, and Paul Robeson, she also advocated the rights of women and racial equality before the civil rights movement. As a consequence of these activities, the F.B.I. kept detailed files on her for years.After the communist revolution in China, Buck became disillusioned about the chances for international cooperation. THE PATRIOT (1939) focused on the emotional development of an university student, whose idealism is crushed by the brutalities of war. Buck gradually shifted her activities to a lifelong concern for children. She coined the word ''Amerasian'' and raised millions of dollars for the adoption and fostering of Amerasian children, often abandoned by their American fathers stationed in the Far East. Buck's own family included nine adopted children as well as her biological daughters. THE CHILD WHO NEVER GREW (1950) told a personal story of her own daughter, whose mental development stopped at the age of four. The subject is also dealt with in Buck's famous novel The Good Earth. The book was filmed in 1937. Irving Thalberg had wanted to produce the novel since the 1931 publication. Thalberg employed many Chinese as extras and authentic background shots were made in China. Luise Rainer won an Academy Award for best actress. Buck did not first complain her small royalty, until years later, when MGM ignored her plea for a substantial donation to help Amerasian children.The Good Earth(1931) sold 1,800,000 copies in its first year. It has been translated into more than thirty languages and was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1932. The story follows the life of Wang Lung, from his beginnings as an impoverished peasant to his eventualposition as a prosperous landowner. Wang Lung collects a slave, O-lan, from the prosperous house of Hwang. O-lan's parents sold her to Hwang because they were poor and needed money. According to an old Chinese custom, Wang Lung's and O-lan's marriage is pre-arranged. The fiancée is not beautiful, she is humble but shares with him the devotion to land, to duty, and to survival. First year is happy: the crop is good and they have two sons. Then the crops fail, and O-lan gives birth to a girl. The family moves to south, and the man abandons the plan to sell the child. Revolution breaks out, houses are plundered, and Wang Lung gets in his possession a silver treasure. The family returns to their home region. Wang Lung buys land and soon owns also the house of now impoverished Hwang. The only problem is their retarded child, a girl, who don't speak. O-lan gives birth to twins, a boy and a girl. The elder boys go to school. Wang Lung buys another wife, Lotus. O-lan is not well after the birth of the twins, and she dies after the wedding of her sons. In his old days, Wang Lung gives his love to a young slave girl, who also takes care of the retarded girl. His youngest son moves from the house to become a soldier and because he also loves the young slave girl. Old Wang Lung witnesses for his sorrow that his children do not share his unyielding devotion to the land. - The novel was followed by two sequels, SONS (1932), which focused on the youngest son, Wang the Tiger, and A HOUSE DIVIDED (1935), which was Yuan's story. The three novels were published in 1935 in one volume as THE HOUSE OF EARTH. At her death Buck was working on 'The Red Earth', a further sequel to The Good Earth, presenting the modern-day descendants of that novel's characters.After Walsh's death, Buck formed a relationship with Ted Harris, a dance instructor 40 years her junior, who took charge of the Pearl S. Buck Foundation. Buck died at the age of eighty in Danby, Vermont, on March 6, 1973. Her manuscripts and papers are at the Pearl S. Buck Birthplace Foundation, Hillsboro, West Virginia and the Lipscomb Library of Randolph-Macon Women's College, Lynchburg, Virginia."I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in human beings, Buck said in 1939. "Like Confucius of old, I am so absorbed in the wonder of earth and the life upon it thatI cannot think of heaven and the angels... If there is no other life, then this one has been enough to make it worth being born, myself a human being." During her career as an author, spanning forty years, Buck published eighty works, including novels, plays, short story collections, poems, children's books, and biographies. She also wrote five novels under the name John Sedges and translated Lo Guangzhong's (1330-1400) The Water Margin / Men of the Marshes, which appeared in 1933 under the title All Men Are Brothers. The book depicts adventures of outlaws and was banned by Sung rulers. COMMAND THE MORNING (1959) concerned the efforts of the Manhattan Project to develop the atomic bomb and the ethics of dropping it on Japan. THE CHINESE NOVEL (1939) was largely an explanation of her own writing style.For further reading:Pearl S. Buck by Kang Liao (1997); Pearl S.

Text Discussion
A Glimpse & General Understanding of the Text
“Christmas Day in the Morning” is intended to inspire people to high ideals and noble sentiments. The story is written to convey the idea of universal love as advocated（倡导） by Christianity. Because the characters and the plot are simple and down-to-earth, the story would appeal to a mass audience. They might see themselves as the same type of persons, and they might imagine themselves as giving a loved one a similar type of special gift. For these reason, “Christmas Day …” is a story that would be found in certain kinds of popular magazines in North America such as Reader’s Digest, which has an extremely large circulation. The central idea of this story is expressed in the statement that love alone can waken love. It means that love is always mutual and always begins with giving.

二生平LIFEPearl Buck was born in Hillsboro, West Virginia to Caroline Stulting (1857–1921) and Absalom Sydenstricker. Her parents, Southern Presbyterian missionaries, traveled to China soon after their marriage on July 8, 1880, but returned to the United States for Pearl's birth. When Pearl was three months old, the family returned to China to be stationed first in Zhenjiang (then often known as Jingjiang or, in the Postal Romanization, Tsingkiang).[2] Pearl was raised in a bilingual environment, tutored in English by her mother and in classical Chinese by a Mr. Kung.[3]The Boxer Uprising greatly affected Pearl and family; their Chinese friends deserted them, and Western visitors decreased.In 1911, Pearl left China to attend Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Virginia, US,[4] graduating Phi Beta Kappa in 1914. From 1914 to 1933, she served as a Presbyterian missionary, but her views later became highly controversial in the Fundamentalist–Modernist Controversy, leading to her resignation.[5]In 1914, Pearl returned to China. She married an agricultural economist missionary, John Lossing Buck (hereafter in this article Pearl Buck is referred to simply as 'Buck'), on May 13, 1917, and they moved to Suzhou, Anhui Province, a small town on the Huai River (not be confused with the better-known Suzhou in Jiangsu Province). It is this region she described later in The Good Earth and Sons.From 1920 to 1933, the Bucks made their home in Nanking (Nanjing), onthe campus of Nanjing University, where both had teaching positions. Buck taught English literature at the University of Nanjing and the Chinese National University. In 1920, the Bucks had a daughter, Carol, afflicted with phenylketonuria. In 1921, Buck's mother died and shortly afterward her father moved in. In 1924, they left China for John Buck's year of sabbatical and returned to the United States for a short time, during which (Pearl) Buck earned her Masters degree from Cornell University. In 1925, the Bucks adopted Janice (later surnamed Walsh). That autumn, they returned to China.[5]The tragedies and dislocations that Buck suffered in the 1920s reached a climax in March 1927, during the "Nanking Incident". In a confused battle involving elements of Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist troops, Communist forces, and assorted warlords, several Westerners were murdered. Since her father Absalom was a missionary, the family decided to stay in Nanjing until the battle reached the city. When violence broke out, a poor Chinese family allowed them to hide in their hut while the family house was looted. The family spent a day terrified and in hiding, after which they were rescued by American gunboats. They traveled to Shanghai and then sailed to Japan, where they stayed for a year.[6] They later moved back to Nanjing, though conditions remained dangerously unsettled. In 1934, they left China permanently.In 1935 the Bucks were divorced. Richard Walsh, president of the John Day Company and her publisher, became Pearl Buck's second husband. Walsh offered her advice and affection which, her biographer concludes, "helped make Pearl's prodigious activity possible." The couple lived in Pennsylvania until his death in 1960.[7]During the Cultural Revolution Buck, as a preeminent American writer of Chinese peasant life, was denounced as an "American cultural imperialist." Buck was "heartbroken" when Madame Mao and high-level Chinese officials prevented her from visiting China with Richard Nixon in 1972.[8]Pearl S. Buck died of lung cancer on March 6, 1973 in Danby, Vermont and was interred in Green Hills Farm in Perkasie, Pennsylvania. She designed her own tombstone. The grave marker is inscribed with Chinese characters representing the name Pearl Sydenstricker.1892年6月26日，赛珍珠出生在美国西弗吉尼亚州，父親是美南长老会的传教士赛兆祥（Absalom Sydenstricker，1852年—1931年），父母親在她出生4个月时一同来到中国江苏清江浦，后来搬到镇江，住在润州山长老会润州中学的平房里（此处故居已经拆除）；在那里长大成人，她是先学会汉语和习惯中国风俗（特别受益于其老师“孔先生”）後，她母亲才教她英语。

赛珍珠英文简介(introduciton of pearl s buck)

Pearl-S.Buck赛珍珠个人介绍英文演示教学

赛珍珠
Pearl Buck was born on June 26, 1892, in West Virginia. Pearl was
the fourth of seven children (and one of only three who would survive to adulthood). When she was three months old, she was taken to China, where she spent most of the first forty years of her life. From childhood, Pearl spoke both English and Chinese. She was taught principally by her mother and by a Chinese tutor.
The novel of family life in a Chinese village before the 1949 Revolution was a best-seller in both 1931 and 1932 and has been a steady favorite ever since. In 2004, the book was returned to the best seller list when chosen by the television host Oprah Winfrey for Oprah's Book Club. The novel helped prepare Americans of the 1930s to consider Chinese as allies in the coming war with Japan. A Broadway stage adaptation was produced by the Theatre Guild in 1932, written by the father and son playwriting team of Owen and Donald Davis, but it was poorly received by the critics, and ran only 56 performances. However, the 1937 film, The Good Earth, which was based on the stage version, was more successful.

Jumping out of bed，he took his gun and hurried to the bedroom window. The room was not shining and the night was rather dark. But he could see a white shape. It looked like a man in the garden. He pointed his gun at it，fired and went back to bed. Early in the morning，he went down to the garden. His shirt was hanging from a tree. He had washed it the day before and hung it on the tree do dry. It had a hole right through the middle. Mr. Robinson was really frightened out of his life when he saw it and began to tremble(颤抖). His neighbour arrived at that moment.“How are you today，Mr，Robinson?”he asked in an anxious voice. “You don't look well.”“I'm all right，thank you，”said Mr. Robinson. “But I'm lucky to be alive.

The title “A Narrow Escape”suggests that one has_______.[A] succeeded in escaping to escape[B] failed[C] run away[D] only just avoided deathPassage 2One of the most popular literary figures in American literature is a woman who spent almost half of her life in China, a country on a continent thousands of miles from the United States. In her life time she earned his country’s most highly acclaimed literary award, the Pulitzer Prize, and also the most prestigious form of literary recognition in the world, the Nobel Prize for Literature. Pearl S. Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime because of her prolific output, which consisted of some eighty-five published works, including several dozen novels, six collections of short stories, fourteen books for children, and more than a dozen works of nonfiction. When she was eighty years old, some twenty-five volumes were awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China, the land in which she spent so much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and the West. As the product of those two cultures shebecame, as she described herself, “mentally bifocal”. Her unique background made her into an unusually interesting and versatile human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that we are in fact meeting three separate people: a wife and mother, an internationally famous writer, and a humanitarian and philanthropist. One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without learning about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer Prizes, Pearl Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author, is a captivating subject of study.36. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A) To offer a criticism of the works of Pearl Buck.B) To illustr ate Pearl Buck’s views on Chinese literature.C) To illustrate the background and diverse interests of Pearl Buck.D) To discuss Pearl Buck’s influence on the cultures of the East and the West.37. According to the passage, Pearl Buck was an unusual figure in American literature in that she ______.A) wrote extensively about a very different cultureB) published half of her books abroadC) won more awards than any other woman of her timeD) achieved her first success very late in life38. According to the pa ssage, Pearl Buck described herself as “mentally bifocal” to suggest that she was ______.A) capable of resolving the differences between two distinct linguistic systemsB) keenly aware of how the past could influence the futureC) capable of producing literary works of interest to both adults and childrenD) equally familiar with two different cultural environments39. The word “prolific” in Line 6 is closest in meaning to which of the following?A) influential.B) impressive.C) fruitful.D) outstanding.40. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A) All of Pearl Buck’s books were written in China.B) Pearl Buck won several literary awards for her works.C) Pearl Buck knew both American and Chinese cultures very well.D) One has to study the different aspects of Pearl Buck in order to understand her well.Passage 3The general principles of dynamics (力学) are rules which demonstrate a relationship between the motions of bodies and the forces which produce those motions. Based in large part on the work of his predecessors (前辈), sir Isaac Newton deduced (推出) three laws of dynamics which he published in 1667 in his famous " Principia ".Prior to Newton, Aristotle had established that the natural state of a body was a state of rest, and that unless a force acted upon it to maintain motion, a moving body would come to rest. Galileo had succeeded in correctly describing the behavior of falling objects and in recording that no force was required to maintain a body in motion. He noted that the effect of force was to change motion. Huygens recognized that a change in the direction of motion involved acceleration (加速), just as did a change in speed, and further, that the action of a force was required. Kepler deduced the laws describing the motion of planets around the sun. It was primarily from Galileo and Kepler that Newton borrowed.41.Huygens stated that acceleration was required _____.A only for a change in speedB only for a change in directionC neither for a change in direction nor for a change in speedD either for a change in direction or for a change in speed42.

赛珍珠的翻译是《水浒传》最早的英语全译本，但这不是说，这一译本是原文一字不落的翻译。
在翻译的过程中，赛珍珠省略了不少内容，最明显的是，原书的七十一回到译本中只有七十回。
此外，译本中将原作那些描写人物外貌、打斗场面、山川景物以及日常用品等的诗词歌赋删去未译。
• 她的翻译是相当忠实于原文的，有时甚至过于拘泥于原文，如：To extricate yourself from a difficulty there are thirty-six ways but the best of them all is to run away.（三十六计，走为上策）。 • 至于一百零八将的诨号，赛珍珠也采取了同样的翻译方法：The Opportune Rain（及时雨）； The Leopard Headed（豹子头）；The Fire In The Thunder Clap（霹雳火）；He Whom No Obstacle Can Stay（没遮拦）；White Stripe In The Waves （浪里白条）；Flea On A Drum （鼓上蚤）。
• In 1910, Pearl left China to attend Randolph-
Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, Virginia, US, graduating Phi Beta Kappa in 1914 and a member of Kappa Delta Sorority. 1910年，赛珍珠离开中国，到美国弗吉尼亚州伦道夫· 梅康女子学院学习。
From 1920 to 1933, the Bucks made their home in Nanking (Nanjing), on the campus of Nanjing University, where both had teaching positions. Buck taught English literature at the University of Nanking,金陵大学 and the National Central University,国立中央大学 (renamed to Nanjing University, 南京大学 in 1949).

Pearl S. Buck

Pearl Sydenstricker Buck, 1892 - 1973Pearl Comfort Sydenstricker was born on June 26, 1892, in Hillsboro, West Virginia. Her parents, Absalom and Caroline Sydenstricker, were Southern Presbyterian missionaries, stationed in China. Pearl was the fourth of seven children (and one of only three who would survive to adulthood). She was born when her parents were near the end of a furlough in the United States; when she was three months old, she was taken back to China, where she spent most of the first forty years of her life.The Sydenstrickers lived in Chinkiang (Zhenjiang), in Kiangsu (Jiangsu) province, then a small city lying at the junction of the Yangtze River and the Grand Canal. Pearl's father spent months away from home, itinerating in the Chinese countryside in search of Christian converts; Pearl's mother ministered to Chinese women in a small dispensary she established.From childhood, Pearl spoke both English and Chinese. She was taught principally by her mother and by a Chinese tutor, Mr. Kung. In 1900, during the Boxer Uprising, Caroline and the children evacuated to Shanghai, where they spent several anxious months waiting for word of Absalom's fate. Later that year, the family returned to the US for another home leave.In 1910, Pearl enrolled in Randolph-Macon Woman's College, in Lynchburg, Virginia, from which she graduated in 1914. Although she had intended to remain in the US, she returned to China shortly after graduation when she received word that her mother was gravely ill. In 1915, she met a young Cornell graduate, an agricultural economist named John Lossing Buck. They married in 1917, and immediately moved to Nanhsuchou (Nanxuzhou) in rural（农村）Anhwei (Anhui) province. In this impoverished community, Pearl Buck gathered the material that she would later use in The Good Earth and other stories of China.The Bucks' first child, Carol, was born in 1921; a victim of PKU, she proved to be profoundly retarded. Furthermore, because of a uterine tumor discovered during the delivery, Pearl underwent a hysterectomy. In 1925, she and Lossing adopted a baby girl, Janice. The Buck marriage was unhappy almost from the beginning, but would last for eighteen years.From 1920 to 1933, Pearl and Lossing made their home in Nanking (Nanjing), on the campus of Nanking University, where both had teaching positions. In 1921, Pearl's mother died and shortly afterwards her father moved in with the Bucks. The tragedies and dislocations which Pearl suffered in the 1920s reached a climax in March, 1927, in the violence known as the "Nanking Incident." In a confused battle involving elements of Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist troops, Communist forces, and assorted warlords, several Westerners were murdered. The Bucks spent a terrified day in hiding, after which they were rescued by American gunboats. After a trip downriver to Shanghai, the Buck family sailed to Unzen（云仙，日本著名温泉池）, Japan, where they spent thefollowing year. They then moved back to Nanking, though conditions remained dangerously unsettled.Pearl had begun to publish stories and essays in the 1920s, in magazines such as Nation, The Chinese Recorder, Asia, and Atlantic Monthly. Her first novel, East Wind, West Wind, was published by the John Day Company in 1930. John Day's publisher, Richard Walsh, would eventually become Pearl's second husband, in 1935, after both received divorces.In 1931, John Day published Pearl's second novel, The Good Earth. This became the best-selling book of both 1931 and 1932, won the Pulitzer Prize and the Howells Medal in 1935, and would be adapted as a major MGM film in 1937. Other novels and books of non-fiction quickly followed. In 1938, less than a decade after her first book had appeared, Pearl won the Nobel Prize in literature, the first American woman to do so. By the time of her death in 1973, Pearl would publish over seventy books: novels, collections of stories, biography and autobiography, poetry, drama, children's literature, and translations from the Chinese.In 1934, because of conditions in China, and also to be closer to Richard Walsh and her daughter Carol, whom she had placed in an institution in New Jersey, Pearl moved permanently to the US. She bought an old farmhouse, Green Hills Farm, in Bucks County, PA. She and Richard adopted six more children over the following years. Green Hills Farm is now on the Registry of Historic Buildings; fifteen thousand people visit each year.From the day of her move to the US, Pearl was active in American civil rights and women's rights activities. She published essays in both Crisis, the journal of the NAACP, and Opportunity, the magazine of the Urban League; she was a trustee of Howard University for twenty years, beginning in the early 1940s. In 1942, Pearl and Richard founded the East and West Association, dedicated to cultural exchange and understanding between Asia and the West. In 1949, outraged that existing adoption services considered Asian and mixed-race children unadoptable, Pearl established Welcome House, the first international, inter-racial adoption agency; in the nearly five decades of its work, Welcome House has assisted in the placement of over five thousand children. In 1964, to provide support for Amerasian（美亚混血儿）children who were not eligible for adoption, Pearl also established the Pearl S. Buck Foundation, which provides sponsorship funding for thousands of children in half-a-dozen Asian countries.Pearl Buck died in March, 1973, just two months before her eighty-first birthday. She is buried at Green Hills Farm.珍珠Sydenstricker赛珍珠，1892年至1973年珍珠舒适Sydenstricker出生于1892年6月26日，在希尔斯伯勒，西弗吉尼亚州。
