Unit 3Text II.Writing Skills1)The text is a piece of narrative writing and organized in the usual chronological order. But atthe start of the text, the author used the flashback technique by beginning with the signing of the will and then turned back to t he classification of Shakespeare’s life into several periods based on a time order. The author also used the “cyclic return” in the writing by using the key word “signature” both in the first paragraph and the last paragraph. The two techniques helped the author to inform the reader about the life of Shakespeare most effectively.2) The author used many adjectives ending with “–ing”, superlatives and some emphaticsentence patterns to achieve an “emotional” tone, trying to arouse the strong feelings in readers.II.

Warm-up Questions1. As a sophomore, what is your general impression of college?➢many opportunities for one to explore the unknown➢experiencing a lot➢keeping a good balance and laying a solid foundation➢the golden time in one’s life2. Have you experienced anything different from your middle school life?➢being far away from home➢living with others➢becoming independent➢changes are occurring3. What’s your purpose of receiving a college education?➢to get and keep a good job➢to earn more money➢to get a good start in life➢ a sound investment that is worth every penny .4. Have you had any psychological problems ever since you enteredcollege?➢loneliness➢confusion➢frustration➢psychological problems abound on campusII.Myths and Facts Regarding College ExperienceCollege years are times of significant transition and challenge for an individual.Transition simply means change. Higher levels of anxiety are always experienced by people who are in a state of transition regardless of whether the change is perceived as good or bad. The following are some of the myths vs. the facts regarding college experience.Myth 1: College Years Are the Best Years of One’s Life➢Fact 1: While college years are memorable and enjoyable, they can also be among the most stressful and anxious times. One is faced with constant evaluation from his professors. Personal and parental expectations are always on his mind. Financial stress is often a way of life. Career decisions, various relationships and the move toward independence are also common issues. Making these the best years of one’s life involves developing an approach that is proactive and includes a support network.Myth 2: Students experiencing stress or anxiety are unprepared to handle the rigors of college.➢Fact 2: College and university environments are designed to be challenging academically, personally and socially. Stress and anxiety, among other emotions, are natural by-products of the accelerated pace of learning and growth. It is not a matter of whether or not we experience these unpleasantfeelings but rather, a matter of how we manage these emotions.Myth 3: A good student does not need assistance during his/her college experience.➢Fact 3: Many students come to college with the belief that to ask for help isa sure sign of inadequacy. In fact, nothing could be farther from the truth.Your college or university has an abundance of resources available to you, for which you are paying through tuition or fees. So become familiar with and make use of the campus resources, especially when you need assistance.Myth 4: I am the only one that doesn't have it all.Fact 4: As you walk on campus and observe other students, it appears that everyone else is so sure of himself. Everyone else has friends. Everyone else has direction. Everyone else is confident. Everyone else is without troubles or hassles. This misperception is common among college students.It has its roots in one of our more powerful social norms. We all wear a 'public mask' to protect a certain social image. This 'public mask' communicates a sense of self-assuredness to those with whom we come in contact. It often belies the inner turmoil that we all experience from time to time.The above are just some of the myths versus facts concerning college experiences. Can you think of any other myths? Have a discussion with your classmates about their truths.III.On Seasons in CollegeThere are four seasons in a year, which make the days distinctive and exciting. Metaphorically, there are four seasons in one’s college years representing different aspects of college life, which make the days rewarding and unforgettable. Do you agree? If so, what do you think the four seasons represent ? Share your opinions, please.Spring is the season for nature to revive, to grow and to get ready to boom.Similarly, in college, spring is the season for you to acquire knowledge, to develop yourself and to lay a solid foundation for the future. It’s the season of growth.Summer is the season for flowers to bloom, and it’s the season for you to enjoy the greatest passion in nature — love, love from your classmates, from your teachers and from your romance. It is the season of affection.Autumn is a season of harvest in college.It’s the season for you to enjoy what you have achieved.Winter is the harshest season of the four, which presents so many difficulties and hardships. Likewise, not every day in college is full of joy. You have to meet new faces,get adjusted, make decisions for yourself, be financially and psychologically dependent, etc. So winter is the season of change. Unpleasant as it may seem to some students, it is simply inescapable and beneficial to one’s growth and maturity.Part II Background InformationI. AuthorBob Hartman was born in Pittsburgh, the United States, and moved to England in the summer of 2000. He has been working as a storyteller for children for more than a decade and is a part-time pastor.A selection of books by Bob HartmanII. Erik H. EriksonErik H. Erikson(1902—1994), was a German-born American psychoanalyst whose writings on social psychology, individual identity, and the interactions of psychology with history, politics, and culture influenced professional approaches to psychosocial problems and attracted much popular interest. He was most famous for his work on refining and expanding Freud’s theory of developmental stages. Main books by Erik H. Erickson:II. Erickson’s Developmental StagesBasic Theory:Babies are born with some basic capabilities and distinct temperaments. But they go through dramatic changes on the way to adulthood and old age. According to psychologist Erik H. Erikson, each individual passes through eight developmental stages.Each developmental stage is characterized by a different psychological "crisis", which must be resolved by the individual before the individual can move on to the next stage. If the person copes with a particular crisis in a maladaptive manner, theoutcome will be more struggles with that issue later in life. To Erikson, the sequence of the stages are set by nature. It is within the set limits that nurture works its ways.Stage 1: Infant Trust vs. MistrustNeeds maximum comfort with minimal uncertainty to trust himself/ herself, others, and the environment.Stage 2: Toddler Autonomy vs. Shame and DoubtWorks to master physical environment while maintaining self-esteem.Stage 3: Preschooler Initiative vs. GuiltBegins to initiate, not imitate, activities; develops conscience and sexual identity. Stage 4: School-age Child Industry vs. InferiorityTries to develop a sense of self-worth by refining skills.Stage 5: Adolescent Identity vs. Role ConfusionTries integrating many roles (child, sibling, student, athlete, worker) into a self-image under role model and peer pressure.Stage 6: Young Adult Intimacy vs. IsolationLearns to make personal commitment to another as spouse, parent or partner. Stage 7: Middle-Age Adult Generativity vs. StagnationSeeks satisfaction through productivity in career, family, and civic interests. Stage 8: Older Adult Integrity vs. DespairReviews life accomplishments, deals with loss and prepares for death.Part III Text AppreciationI.Text analysis1. ThemeCollege is designed to be a time of changes for students. Threatening the changes may be, they contribute to young adults’ growth and maturity. College students are experiencing a lot. Not only are they being introduced to new people and new knowledge, but they are also acquiring new ways of assembling and processing information. They are also proudly growing in their understanding of themselves, others and the world.2. StructurePart 1 (para. 1):Many key changes happen to college students during theircollege years.Part 2 (paras.2-9): The key changes involve the following: identity crisis, the independence/dependence struggle, establishment of sexual identity, affection giving and receiving, internalization of religious faith, values and morals, development of new ways to organize and use knowledge, a new understanding of the world and himself/herself.Part 3 (para.10 ): Conclusion.Question 1: How do college students go through an identity crisis at college?What factors may influence identity?Students endeavor to find out who they are and what their strengths and weaknesses are. They want to know how other people perceive themselves as well.Identity may be influenced by genes, environment and opportunities. Question 2: In fact, it may be heightened by their choice to pursue a college education.What does “it” refer to here?For referenc e: “it” refers to the independence/dependence struggle. Into the later adolescence stage, young adults tend to become less dependent on, even independent from their parents. For those who choose to enter the work world, they may become financially independent from their parents, while for others entering into college, the struggle seems stronger for they still need their parents’ support, say for money.Question 3: According to Jeffery A. Hoffman’s observation, there are four distinct aspects to psychologi cal separation from one’s parents. What are they? How do you understand them?1. Functional independence.2. Attitudinal independence.3. Emotional independence.4.Freedom from “excessive guilt, anxiety, mistrust, responsibility,inhibition, resentment, and anger in relation to the mother and father.”Question 4: What may be one of the most stressful matters college students experience according to the author? How do you understand it? Establishing their sexual identity. It includes relating to the opposite sex and projecting their future roles as men or women.Question 5: I was relating to my father in a different way. What are the differences between the ways “I” related to “my” father in the past and at present? What type of change does the example reflect?In the past “I” was encouraged by “my” father; now “I” was encouraging him. The example reflects the change that college students are learning how to give and receive affection in the adult world.Question 6: These religious, moral, and ethical values that are set during the college years often last a lifetime. What makes it possible for these values to last a lifetime?During college years, the young adults have the opportunity to decide for themselves what beliefs, values, and morals they are going to accept. These values are inclined to be internalized.Question 7: What are the significance about the college academic life according to paragraph 8?College academic life is a challenge. All students should be aware of how they react to new knowledge and new ways of learning, how they process the knowledge presented to them, and how they organize this knowledge. Question 8: How do college students become world citizens?At college, the young adults have good chances to meet people from different cultures. By interacting with them, they are introduced to new ways of life. They begin to understand life in different ways. By doing these, they experience a new understanding of the world and themselves.Part III. Further discussionWhat does the author mean by developmental changes?Have you had any identity crisis yourself?What does the author mean by independence/ dependence struggle?How can college student establish their sexual identity?What does the author mean by “internalizing” religious faith, value s, and morals?Part IV. Assignment1. Prepare for the dictation of Unit 12. All the exercises after Text A, unit 13. Preview Unit 3CONTEMPORARY COLLEGE ENGLISH---BOOK 3 The title of teaching:UNIT 2 How Reading Changed My LifePeriod of the teaching:10 classesObjectives:e the words and phrases freelyprehend the text structure3.Understand the rhetorical features of the text4.Have a better understanding of the textKey points:1.The understanding of the complicated sentences2.Important language points3.Translation exercises: C-E and E-CDifficult points:1.Critical thinking skills2.Text patterns3.The corresponding information about the textMethods of teaching:1.Interactive teaching methodmunicative Teaching methodTeaching procedures:Part I Background informationToday, few people will deny that the written word seems being quickly supplanted by pictures, graphs, and sounds. Do people still read? Do those who still read get anything out of it? Many people are now wondering.It is of course an overstatement that traditional reading is dead. But it has obviously been losing its ground. Many people today seem to be too busy to do any reading, and those who are considered successful do not seem to have read much, if at all. The shocking fact is , percentagewise, our reading population is the lowest among major powers.The essay we have here deals with this problem. It is written by someone who has such a passion for, and takes such a delight in, traditional reading that it must deserve our attention.Part II. Detailed discussion of TEXT1)...a small but satisfying spread of center-hall colonials, old roses, and quietroads. ( para.1 )Spread:n. A range or an area over which buildings spreadColonials: houses built in the style of the 18th century during the colonialperiod of American history2) We walked to school, wandered wild in the summer. ( para.1 )Wander wild: remind students that the adjective "wild" is used here as asubject complement.3)One poem committed to memory in grade school survives in my mind.( para.4 )Paraphrase: I still remember one poem I learned in grade school.Commit sth to memory: to study sth carefully so as to remember it exactly Grade school: (AmE, old-fashioned) primary or elementary school Survive in my mind: This is not a common expression. It is more natural to say "still remain in my mind" or "I still remember"4)Perhaps restlessness is a necessary corollary of devoted literacy.(para.5)Perhaps if a person works really hard at reading and writing, he or she is bound to be restless.5)There was waking, and there was sleeping. And then there were books...Between the time I woke up and the time I went to sleep, I read.6)I did not read from a sense of superiority, or advancement, or evenlearning.(para.9)Advancement:progress or improvement in one`s career7)There is something in the American character...a certain hale and heartinessthat is suspicious of reading as anything more than a tool foradvancement.(para.11)Hale and hearty: healthy and strongBe suspicious of sb./sth.:to feel that sb/sth cannot be trusted8)There also arose...a kind of careerism in the United States that sanctionreading only if there was some point to it.(para.12)Careerism: the practice of seeking one`s professional advancement by all possible meansSanction: to approve ofNote: this word deserves special care as it can have diametrically meanings in different contexts.Point: purpose; goal; advantage;reason9)For many journalists, reading... was most often couched as a series ofproblem to be addressed... (para.13)For many journalists, reading... was usually discussed as a lot of problem to be resolved.Be couched: (fml) to be expressed in a particular way10)Gutenberg invented the printing press (para.14)Printing press: (here) a printing machine 印刷机Note: the word "press" is often used to mean, among other things, newspaper in general as in phrases like the American press, a press conference,press coverage.11)After that, it became more difficult for one small group to lay an exclusiveclaim to books, to seize and hold reading as their own. (para.14)Lay claim to sth: to state officially that you have a right to own sthSeize and hold sth: to grasp sth quickly and forcibly and then hold it firmly 12)... we are what the world of books is really about.

The theme of the TEXTThis highly autobiographical essay can be divided into the traditional three parts with a brief introduction and an equally brief conclusion. The major part, the body of the essay, can be conveniently divided into two sections, the first of which deals with her childhood experiences of reading: what, how, why she read, and what she learned through reading. The second section tackles a more complicated topic: how she continues to read in an unfriendly environment in adulthood.Part IV. The structure of the TEXTPart 1.

A Boatman’s SongEnjoy listening to the Russian folk music.II. DictationKatherine Mansfield (1888—1923), British short-story writer, was born in Wellington, New Zealand. She is considered one of the greatest of the short-story form.At the age of 18 she in London to study music and to herself as a writer. In 1918 she married English literary ,John Middleton Murry.Mansfield's middle class provided the setting for many of her stories and mortality—perhaps due to her illness—dominated her writing. Her years were burdened with , illness, jealousy and —all reflected from her work in the bitter of marital and family relationships of her middle-class characters.As a New Zealand's most famous writer, she was closely associated withD.H. Lawrence and something of a rival of Virginia Woolf. Her shortstories are also notable for their use of . Much influenced by Russian writer Anton Chekhov, Mansfield depicted events and changes in human behavior.Part II Background informationI Author Katherine Mansfield1888–1923, British author, born in New ZealandHer original name was Kathleen Beauchamp. She is regarded as one of the masters of the short story.A talented cellist (大提琴演奏家), she did not turn to literature until 1908. Her WorksIn a German Pension (1911), her first published book.Bliss(1920) which collected Mansfield's family memoirs and secured her reputation as a writer.The Garden Party(1922), her finest work written during the final stages of her illness which established her as a major writer.Later volumes of stories include The Dove’s Nest (1923) and Something Childish (1924; U.S. ed. The Little Girl, 1924).Other collections and poems: journal, letters, and scrapbook (edited by her husband) .Her Adventurous SpiritFamously, Mansfield remarked "risk, risk everything".It was largely through her adventurous spirit, her eagerness to grasp at experience and to succeed in her work, that she became ensnared in disaster. . . If she was never a saint, she was certainly a martyr, and a heroine in her recklessness, her dedication and her courage.Her last words were: "I love the rain. I want the feeling of it on my face." Her StyleMansfield's stories, which reveal the influence of Chekhov, are simple in form, luminous and evocative in substance. With delicate plainness they present elusive moments of decision, defeat, and small triumph.Themes of Mansfield's novelsThemes: different human relationships interacting with each other; social classes and inequality in bourgeois society;the frenzied exhortation to live, which is central to all her writings; the opposition of convention and nature; the elevation of the great artist as the model for living and, by extension; art as a means of being "real";the notion that destiny is a function of desiring—to want something strongly enough is to legitimise the means of getting it.In her most persuasive work, Mansfield found a way of pressing the threads of such a credo into the weave of her fiction. The story of the rises and falls in Mansfield's popularity is fasci5nating, as it shifts with the major social, political and literary trends.Mansfield's portrayal of social classes and the injustices of bourgeois society had obvious appeal to the Chinese. One of the translators, Tang Baoxin, writes: “With remorseless irony she lays bare the hypocrisy and shallowness of the leisured class and their men of letters.”II Dill PickleHow does it taste? It tastes very sour.Cucumber reserved in salty and spicy water with such ingredients aspepper, garlic, dill and vinegar.In Russia, it is eaten with hamburger as an appetizer.Part III Text AppreciationI Text AnalysisStructure of the Story1).

大学英语精读电子教案第3册_UNIT7_the_ shelter
Civil defense is the national program of the U. S. to safeguard civilian life and property. With the coming of the age of missiles and rockets, civil defense has become a program for national survival. With the menace of missiles, people may be doomed by fallout (放射性尘埃) – the dangerous radioactive particles or dust that is left in the air after a nuclear explosion. There is no practical way to protect people in the immediate range of a nuclear explosion. Civil defense, therefore, must be based primarily on a system of fallout shelters. In 1961, the federal government of the U. S. began to survey to find shelter spaces in factories, office buildings, and other places. These shelters were to be stocked with essential supplies, marked for identification, and made available to the public in an emergency.

Passage OneA couple of years ago I spent the day at an elementary school in New Jersey. It was a nice average school, a square and solid building, full of reasonably well-behaved kids from middle-class families. I handled three classes, and by the time I staggered out the door I wanted to lie down for the rest of the day. Teaching's the toughest job there is. In his new memoir, "Teacher Man," Frank McCourt recalls telling his students, "Teaching is harder than working on docks and warehouses." Not to mention writing a column. I can stare off into the middle distance with my chin (下巴) in my hand any time. But you go mentally south for five minutes in front of a class of fifth graders, and you are sunk. The average new teacher today makes just under $30,000 a year, which may not look too bad for a twenty-something with no mortgage (抵押贷款) and no kids. But soon enough the new teachers realize that they can make more money and not work anywhere near as hard elsewhere. After a lifetime of hearing the old legends about cushy (舒适安逸的) hours and summer vacations, they figure out that early mornings are for students who need extra help, evenings are for test corrections and lesson plans, and weekends and summers are for second and even third jobs to try to pay the bills. According to the Department of Education, one in every five teachers leaves after the first year, and almost twice as many leave within three. If any business had that rate of turnover, someone would do something smart and strategic to fix it. This isn't any business. It's the most important business around, the gardeners of the landscape of the human race. Unfortunately, the current way of dealing with problems in education is taken directly from business practice, and it's a terrible fit. Instead of simply acknowledging that starting salaries are woefully low and committing to increasing them and finding the money for reasonable recurring raises, politicians have wasted decades talking about something called merit pay (奖励工资). It's a concept that works fine if you're making toys, but kids aren't toys, and good teaching isn't an assembly line.26. What can we infer from the first paragraph about teachers?1">They have to teach three classes at a time.2">They have a very rewarding job.3">They prefer to teach children from middle-class families.4">They have a very hard job to do.27. Why does the author say teaching is tougher than writing a column? 1">Teaching is like working on docks and warehouses.2">Teaching demands full attention.3">Teachers have to work with children.4">Teachers have no chance to go traveling.28. What do new teachers find out after some practice?1">Their starting salary is lower than offered by other occupations. 2">They have to work during vacations to make ends meet.3">They have to plan their time well to get everything done.4">They can take a second or even a third job besides teaching.29. We can infer from the fourth paragraph that the author thinks __________. 1">measures should be taken to keep teachers in their jobs2">the rate of turnover in teaching is low compared to other occupations 3">it's natural for a number of teachers to quit in three to five years 4">it's fair to call teachers the gardeners of the landscape of the human race30. What does the author think of merit pay?1">It will make up for teachers' low starting salaries.2">It will bring down the turnover rate of teachers.3">It is a good fix for current educational problems.4">It is not suitable for the teaching profession.几年前,我花了一整天在新泽西的一所小学。

The Background of the Song The idea for “Kids Wanna Rock” began one summer night in 1984 at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver, where Bryan and I and my wife Rachel had gone to see a performance by Thomas Dolby. With all the electronic sounds and robotic posturing, we found the performance to be somewhat lacking emotionally. Unable to endure another “sine-wave”, twenty minutes into the concert we quietly slipped out of the theatre and went up the street for a bite to eat. While discussing the Dolby performance over dinner, one of us remarked how, really, the kids just “wanna rock”. We wrote most of “Kids Wanna Rock” the next day. We based the song on another idea we’d been developing. Just as Paul McCartney used “Scrambled Eggs” as a temporary title for “Yesterday”, Bryan and I had a temporary lyric before we settled on “Kids Wanna Rock”. Instead of “Around the world or around the block, everywhere I go the kids wanna rock”, we had “What’s Sir Lew Grade got against me, I can’t get my songs reflection of Bryan’s inability at the time to get airplay on UK radio. — by Jim Vallance

第三册Unit 1TextA young man finds that strolling along the streets without an obvious purpose can lead to trouble with the law. One misunderstanding leads to another until eventually he must appear in court for trial……A Brush with the LawI have only once been in trouble with the law. The whole process of being arrested and taken to court was a rather unpleasant experience at the time, but it makes a good story now. What makes it rather disturbing was the arbitrary circumstances both of my arrest and my subsequent fate in court.In happened in February about twelve years ago. I had left school a couple of months before that and was not due to go to university until the following October. I was still living at home at the time.One morning I was in Richmond, a suburb of London near where I lived. I was looking for a temporary job so that I could save up some money to go travelling. As it was a fine day and I was in no hurry, I was taking my time, looking in shop windows, strolling in the park, and sometimes just stopping and looking around me. It must have been this obvious aimlessness that led to my downfall.It was about half past eleven when it happened. I was just walking out of the local library, having unsuccessfully sought employment there, when I saw a man walking across the road with the obvious intention of talking to me.I thought he was going to ask me the time. Instead, he said he was a police officer and he was arresting me. At first I thought it was some kind of joke. But then another policeman appeared, this time in uniform, and I was left in no doubt.'But what for?' I asked."Wandering with intent to commit an arrestable offence,' he said.'What offence?' I asked.'Theft,' he said.'Theft of what?' I asked.'Milk bottles,' he said, and with a perfectly straight face too!'Oh,' I said.It turned out there had been a lot of petty thefts in the area, particularly that of stealing milk bottles from doorsteps.Then I made my big mistake. At the time I was nineteen, had long untidy hair, and regarded myself as part of the sixties' 'youth countercultrue. As a result, I want to appear cool and unconcerned with the incident, so I said, 'How long have you been following me?' in the most casual and conversation tone I could manage. I thus appeared to them to be quite familiar with this sort of situation, and it confirmed them in their belief that I was a thoroughly disreputable character.A few minutes later a police car arrived.'Get in the back," they said. 'Put your hands on the back of the front seat and don't move them.'They got in on either side of me. I wasn't funny any more.At the police station they questioned me for several hours. I continued to try to look worldly and au fait with the situation. When they asked me what I had been doing, I told them I'd been looking for a job. 'Aha,' I could see them thinking, 'unemployed'.Eventually, I was officially charged and told to report to Richmond Magistrates' Court the following Monday. Then they let me go.I wanted to conduct my own defence in court, but as soon as my father found out what had happened, he hired a very good solicitor. We went along that Monday armed with all kinds of witnesses, including my English teacher from school as a character witness. But he was never called on to give evidence. My 'trial' didn't get that far. The magistrate dismissed the case after fifteen minutes. I was free. The poor police had never stood a chance. The solicitor even succeeded in getting costs awarded against the police.And so I do not have a criminal record. But what was most shocking at the time was the things my release from the charge so clearly depended on. I had the 'right' accent, respectable middle-class parents in court, reliable witnesses, and I could obviously afford a very good solicitor. Given the obscure nature of the charge, I feel sure that if I had come from a different background, and had really been unemployed, there is every chance that I would have been found guilty. While asking for costs to be awarded, my solicitor's case quite obviously revolved around the fact that I had a 'brilliant academic record'.Meanwhile, just outside the courtroom, one of the policemen who had arrested me was gloomily complaining to my mother that another youngster had been turned against the police. 'You could have been a bit more helpful when we arrested you,' he said to me reproachfully.What did the mean? Presumably that I should have looked outraged and said something like, 'Look here, do you know who you're talking to? I am a highly successful student with a brilliant academic record. How dare you arrest me!' Then they, presumably, would have apologized, perhaps even taken off their caps, and let me on my way.NEW WORDSbrushn. brief fight or encounter 小冲突;小接触processn. course; method, esp. one used in manufacture 过程;制作法arbitrarya. based on one's own opinion only, not on reason 任意的;武断的circumstancen.

A wounded Union soldier is found hiding in a farmhouse near her home. She has to decide whether tohelp him or let him be captured. What will she choose to do?The Woman Who Would Not TellJanice Keyser Lester"I never did hate the Yankees. All that hated was the war.……"That's how my great-aunt Bettie began her story. I heard it many times as a child, whenever my family visited Aunt Bettie in the old house in Berryville, Virginia. Aunt Bettie was almost 80 years old then. But I could picture her as she was in the story she told me —— barely 20, pretty, with bright blue eyes.Bettie Van Metre had good reason to hate the Civil War. One of her brother was killed at Gettysburg, another taken prisoner. Then her young husband, James, a Confederate officer, was captured and sent to an unknown prison camp somewhere.One hot day in late September Dick Runner, a former slave, came to Bettie with a strange report. He had been checking a farmhouse half a mile away from the Van Metre home, a farmhouse he thought was empty. But inside, he heard low groans. Following them to the attic, he found a wounded Union soldier, with a rifle at his side.When Aunt Bettie told me about her first sight of the bearded man in the stained blue uniform, she always used the same words. "It was like walking into a nightmare: those awful bandages, that dreadful smell. That's what war is really like, child: no bugles and banners. Just pain and filth, futility and death."To Bettie Van Metre this man was not an enemy but rather a suffering human being. She gave him water and tried to clean his terrible wounds. Then she went out into the cool air and leaned against the house, trying not to be sick as she thought of what she had seen —— that smashed right hand, that missing left leg.The man's papers Bettie found in the attic established his identity: Lt. Henry Bedell, Company D, 11th Vermont Volunteers, 30 year old. She knew that she should report the presence of this Union officer to the Confederate army. But she also knew that she would not do it. This is how she explained it to me: "I kept wondering if he had a wife somewhere, waiting, and hoping, and not knowing —— just as I was. It seemed to me that the only thing that mattered was to get her husband back to her."Slowly, patiently, skillfully, James Van Metre's wife fanned the spark of life that flickered in Henry Bedell. Of drugs or medicines she had almost none. And she was not willing to take any from the few supplies at the Confederate hospital. But she did the best she could with what she had.As his strength returned, Bedell told Bettie about his wife and children in Westfield, Vermont. And BedelL listened as she told him about her brothers and about James. "I knew his wife must be praying for him," Aunt Bettie would say to me, "just as I was praying for James. It was strange how close I felt to her."The October nights in the valley grew cold. The infection in Bedell's wounds flared up. With Dick and his wife, Jennie, helping, she moved the Union officer at night, to a bed in a hidden loft above the warm kitchen of her own home.But the next day, Bedell had a high fever. Knowing that she must get helpor he would die, she went to her long-time friend and family doctor. Graham Osborne.Dr. Osborne examined Bedell, then shook his head. There was little hope, he said, unless proper medicine could be found."All right, then," Bettie said. "I'll get it from the Yankees at Harpers Ferry."The doctor told her she was mad. The Union headquarters were almost 20 miles away. Even if she reached them, the Yankees would never believe her story."I'll take proof," Bettie said. She went to the loft and came back with a blood-stained paper bearing the official War Department seal. "This is a record of his last promotion," she said. "When I show it, they'll have to believe me."She made the doctor writer out list of the medical items he needed. Early the next morning she set off.For five hours she drove, stopping only to rest her horse. The sun was almost down when she finally stood before the commanding officer at Harpers Ferry.Gen. John D. Stevenson listened, but did not believe her. "Madam," he said, "Bedell's death was reported to us.""He's alive," Bettie insisted. "But he won't be much longer unless he has the medicines on that list.""Well," the general said finally, "I'm not going to risk the lives of a patrol just to find out." He turned to a junior officer. "See that Mrs. Van Metre gets the supplies." He brushed aside Bettie's thanks. "You're a brave woman," he said, "whether you're telling the truth or not."With the medicines that Bettie carried to Berryville, Dr. Osborne brought Bedell through the crisis. Ten days later Bedell was hobbling on a pair of crutches that Dick had made for him. "I can't go on putting you in danger," Bedell told Bettie. "I'm strong enough to travel now. I'd lie to go back as soon as possible."So it was arranged that Mr. Sam, one of Bettie's neighbors and friends, should go and help Bettie deliver Bedeel to Union headquarters at Harpers Ferry in his wagon.They hitched Bettie's mare alongside Mr. Sam's mule. Bedell lay down in an old box filled with hay, his rifle and crutches beside him.It was a long, slow journey that almost ended in disaster. Only an hour from the Union lines, two horsemen suddenly appeared. One pointed a pistol, demanding money while the other pulled Mr. Sam from the wagon. Shocked, Bettie sat still. Then a rifle shot cracked out, and the man with the pistol fell to the ground dead. A second shot, and the man went sprawling. It was Bedell shooting! Bettie watched him lower the rifle and brush the hay out of his hair. "Come on, Mr. Sam," he said. "Let's keep moving."At Harpers Ferry, the soldiers stared in surprise at the old farmer and the girl. They were even more amazed when the Union officer with the missing leg rose from his hay-filled box.Bedell was sent to Washington. There he told his story to Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton. Stanton wrote a letter of thanks to Bettie and-signed an order to free James Van Metre from prison. But first James had to be found.It was arranged for Bedell to go with Bettie as she searched for her husband.Records showed that a James Van Metre had been sent to a prison camp in Ohio. But when the ragged prisoners were paraded before Bettie, James was not there. A second prison was checked, with the same result. Bettie Van Metre fought back a chilling fear that her husband was dead.Then at Fort Delaware, near the end of the line of prisoners a tall man stepped out and stumbled into Bettie's arms. Bettie held him, tears streaming down her face. And Henry Bedell, standing by on his crutches, wept, too.NEW WORDStellv. act as an informer 告发Yankeen.
