外国文学下复习笔记
浪漫主义流派:产生于18世纪末繁荣于19世纪上半叶欧美文坛的文学运动和流派。
个人独立和极端自由是其核心思想,特征:a浪漫主义文学崇尚自我,具有强烈的个人主义倾向。
使“人”的形象拥有了更丰富的内涵和鲜明的主题意识。
b浪漫主义强调感情的抒发,偏重理想的追求,有很强的主观性。
反对运用理性观念来认识概括现实,主张从情感和想象等主观意志出发,追求创作的绝对自由;文学作品是一种表现而不是模仿和再现。
c浪漫主义作家反对古典主义只注重描写历史题材和宫廷生活,她们接受卢梭“返回自然”的主张和泛神论思想,着力于表现自然景物和乡间的淳朴生活,歌颂和赞美大自然。
d浪漫主义善于用夸张手法,追求强烈的艺术效果。
e浪漫主义重视民间文学和民族传统。
批判现实主义:批判现实主义文学,是流行于十九世纪欧洲等地区的一种文学流派。
批判现实主义作家在自己的作品中,广阔而深刻、真实而生动地反映了社会风俗、人情、国民性和社会矛盾;深入地批判了资本主义社会的精神童话,把人间的一切苦难,形象地昭示给人们。
这一文学流派,在艺术上多有创见,既是写实的,又具有倾向性。
其中在典型环境中再现某一阶层人的典型性格的创作方法,使作品达到了思想性与艺术性的高度统一,具有深刻的认识价值和审美价值。
F司汤达:《红与黑》F巴尔扎克:《人间喜剧》Y狄更斯:《艰难时世》E托尔斯泰:《复活》现实主义:指文学艺术对自然的忠诚,作品的逼真性或与对象的酷似程度成为判断作品成功与否的准则。
侧重如实地反映现实生活,客观性较强。
它提倡客观地、冷静地观察现实生活,按照生活的本来样式精确细腻地加以描写,力求真实地再现典型环境中的典型人物。
继承了19世纪批判现实主义文学前辈们广泛、深入地批判资本主义社会、着力塑造典型环境中的典型人物等传统,同时又吸收了现代主义文学的营养。
特征a继续揭露批判垄断资本主义的种种罪恶之外,战争文学或反法西斯文学成为20世纪现实主义文学的一个重要题材。
b在表现人与社会关系的同时,更加重视对人的主观精神世界的探索和开掘。
2015年北京外国语大学翻译硕士MTI考研百科知识与真题写作真题笔记
2015年北京外国语大学翻译硕士MTI考研百科知识与真题写作真题笔记各位考研的同学们,大家好!我是才思的一名学员,现在已经顺利的考上研究生,今天和大家分享一下这个专业的真题,方便大家准备考研,希望给大家一定的帮助。
选择MTI有点原因:1、MTI时间短,时间就是成本。
至于学费问题,提前工作一年的工资应该大于四万元。
2、MTI实用性更强。
3、MTI目前竞争较学硕更小,对于不愿冒险的童鞋来说是个更保险的选择。
下面谈谈我的考经:1、北外的招录比。
北外的研招办有11年和12年的统计。
大家可以自己去查一下。
但是这个统计相较于去年的报考人数要少不少,而且没有计算入报送的名额,报送的名额一般都在一半甚至更高。
童鞋们在考研现场确认之后两个星期可以给北外研招办打电话,问下具体的报考名额,这样自己心里比较有底。
2、大家应该知道,北外最看重的是专业课的成绩。
初试成绩总分、政治和二外只要达到国家线的要求就可以,谁能进复试看的是专业课的总分。
只有专业课的成绩才算入复试成绩中。
因此专业课是最最重要的。
百科相比于翻译更容易拿高分。
翻译有时候下了功夫却不一定能体现在成绩上,而百科则是复习好了肯定有高分。
百科也很容易拉开分数。
当然,翻译也是非常重要的。
因为最后进复试看的还是翻译水平。
当然,北外的复试刷人比例很低,所以进了初试就几乎是成功了一大半了。
lz在百科上花了很大的力气,最终努力也没有白费,考了近130。
Lz看了很多书,《中国文化读本》《中国文化概论》《中国国家地理》等等等等,还有购买了一些考研机构和的资料和考上的学姐的笔记,按照北外考题的风格和类型,最后整理了1300多个词条,考前把词条全部背熟,前面的名词解释就是手到擒来了。
小作文:根据公文写作的书,重点阅读可能成为考题的类型,如解说词、通知等等,把格式记牢,根据北外历年的真题和其他学校的真题练手。
大作文:一般是议论文,论点要明晰,论据要充足,条理要清楚。
3、政治:lz高中学理,没有政治基础。
U3--教师用书--现代大英(第二版)基础写作(上)
现代大学英语(第二版)基础写作(上)教师用书Unit 3Task One: Summary WritingActivity 1Summarizing a story section by sectionSummarize “The Midnight Visitor,” using the above guidelines just given and those stated in the previous units. Here are some questions for you to think about while reading the text.1.Ausable, an American secret agent. A summary should focus on him because thestory portrays the main character rather than narrates an incident he is involved in.2.Max, the German spy. He is important and shouldn’t be left out because theconflict is the struggle between him and Ausable.3.Fowler, the young American writer. He has no part in the conflict. In the story hisfunction is to heighten a professional secret agent’s presence of mind against an inexperienced young writer’s fright in a dangerous situation.Section 1 (Paras. 1 – 4)Study the three summaries that describe the main character. Explain which of them is the best, and what is wrong with the other two.Summary 1 is the best of the three. It is objective, complete, and balanced. Second, the length is just right, about one-fourth of the original.Summary 2 focuses on a minor character although the length is all right.Summary 3 includes an unimportant detail in the last but one sentence. The second half is a repetition of what is stated in the opening sentence. And an important detail—Fowler’s presence and his impression of Ausable—is left out.Section 2 (Paras. 5 – 13)Summarize this section orally, making your summary one-third to one-fourth the length of the original. Before you summarize the passage answer these questions and list the important points you think should be included in the summary.1.He told Fowler that he would soon witness something exciting—animportant paper was to be delivered to him.2.It was a German secret agent, Ausable’s old opponent.3.He had come to get the report that was on its way to Ausable’s place.4.He remained calm. He behaved as if he had seen an old friend.5. A balcony outside the window of his room. He said he believed it was wherehis enemy had got into the room.Now list the facts you think should be included in the summary.1.Ausable told Fowler an important paper would soon be delivered to him.2.He found in his room a man with a pistol.3.The man was Max, a German spy, an old opponent.4.He wanted to get the paper Ausable mentioned.5.Ausable remained calm.6.He spoke as if he thought Max had entered his room through a balcony andtalked at length about it.Work out an outline based on the list.Thesis: Ausable worked out a plan to deal with his opponent.Outline:-Ausable told Fowler an important paper was to be delivered to him soon.-In his room, Ausable found his old opponent who had come for the same paper.-He had a plan to deal with the situation and made the man believe there was a balcony outside the window.Section 3 (Paras. 14-16)Summarize this passage orally.Ausable told the young writer that a very important paper was to be delivered to him that night. When they entered his room, Ausable found an old opponent of his threatening them with a pistol. The man had come for the very same paper. Looking angry, Ausable started complaining about a balcony outside the window of his room. He spoke as if he believed that his enemy had got in through the balcony, but the man said he had used a passkey.Section 4 (Paras. 17-28)Now list the facts you think should be included in the summary.-They heard a knock at the door.-Ausable said that he had sent for the police for protection.-Max moved to the window, intending to hide on the balcony.-The doorknob turned and Max dropped to what he thought was the balcony.- A waiter walked in with the drink Ausable had ordered.-Ausable told Fowler there was no police and Max would not return.Work out an outline based on the list.Thesis: Ausable defeated his opponent. / Ausable’s plan worked.Outline:-When someone knocked at the door, Ausable made the man believe it was the police.-The man moved to the window and was ready to hide on the balcony.-When the doorknob turned, the man dropped to his death as there was no balconySummarize the passage orally.Then they heard a knock at the door. Ausable said it was the police he had sent for to protect the paper. Max became nervous. He moved to the window, intending to hide on the balcony, and he told Ausable to send the police away. When the doorknob turned, he dropped out of the window. A waiter entered with the drink Ausable hadordered. Ausable then told Fowler that he had not asked the police for protection and said the man with the gun would not return.Activity 2: Summarizing a story in chronological orderRead the following narrative essay entitled “A Home of a Different Sort” section by section, summarize each section in one sentence and write the sentence in the space below.Section 1 (Paras. 1-2)1.Jeff decided to work with a ski patrol while his father demanded he went tocollege, and said he would disown/reject him if he didn’t.2.Father and son had become estranged since then.Main idea:Jeff was estranged from his father after a bitter argument about his future when he graduated from high school.Section 2 (Paras. 3-12)1.He was now doing is for himself, not for his father, after working as a planner fora big company.2.It was a trick Jeff’s sister planned and played for the estranged father and son tohave a “chance” meeting.Main idea: Years later, Jeff was attending college and kept it a secret from his father until the day of his graduation ceremony.Section 3 (Paras. 13-16)1.The father must have had mixed feelings. On the one hand he must have felt proudof his son and was anxious to welcome him back. On the other hand, he might have felt sorry for those harsh words he said to his son.The son was moved by the change in his formerly cold and stern father and was anxious to go home.Main idea:the estranged father and son were reconciled.✍Writing Assignment OneAnswers may vary.Task Two: Paragraph WritingActivity 3 Learning to create a dominant impressionRead the following paragraph from “Silk Parachute” by John McPhee and respond to the questions that follow it.1. A2.The narrator uses action verbs to create a dominant impression of his mother.Read the following paragraph from “The Men We Carry in Our Minds” by Scott Russell Sanders and respond to the questions that follow it.1.Men in some occupations labored hard in horrible conditions.2.The narrator uses action verbs and adjectives to create such a dominant impressionin the first paragraph.3.In the second paragraph, the narrator uses many specific words and figurativelanguage to visualize the horrible working conditions and the living standards the men endured.Activity 4 Reading on the topicSilk Parachute1.Strict and protective.2.Staying up all night playing poker; using four-letter words at the age of 5;burying the sandwich in a snow bank.3.To achieve humor.Mr. Jones1.He was black-haired and had a pale, lean face with high cheekbones, wearinggold-rimmed glasses with pitch-black lenses.2.He was blind and crippled.3.The man had a lean distinctive face with a red star-shaped birthmark on his leftcheek.Hearts and Hands1.It is the story of a marshal who kindly saves the prisoner in his charge fromembarrassment.2.When he was taking a criminal handcuffed with him to prison, they sat opposite aformer girl friend of the criminal.

现代大学英语课文重难点分析Unit 11. You will see to it that the cyanide stays out of the aspirin, that the bull doesn’t jump the fence, or that your client doesn’t go to the electric chair as a result of your incompetence. (P3 pra5)You have to take responsibility for the work you do. If you’re a pharmacist, you should make sure that aspirin is not mixed with poisonous chemicals. As an engineer, you should make sure that the fence you design for instance will successfully keep out bulls. If you become a lawyer, you should make sure an innocent person is not sentenced to death because you lack adequate legal knowledge and skill to defend your client.在配置阿司匹林的时候,确保里面不掺进氰化物;在搞工程设计的时候,确保公牛不会跳进篱笆里;当律师时,确保你的委托人不会因为你的无能而被处以死刑。
2. Our colleges inevitably graduate a number of such life forms, but it cannot be said that they went to college; rather the college went through them—without making contact. (P4 pra9)A number of such push-button savages get college degrees. We cannot help that. But even with their degrees, we can’t say that these people have received a proper college education. It is more accurate to say that they pass through college without learning anything.我们学校肯定有一些这样的毕业生,但不能说他们接受了大学教育,只能说他们上了大学——没有接触真正的人文思想。

现代大学英语精读重点讲解现代大学英语精读重点讲解Beneath my clenched fingers the alder was wriggling like a small, frightened snake. My father saw that I was about to drop it."Hang on to it!"“The branch is squirming," I repeated. "And I hear something that sounds like a river!""Open your eyes," my father ordered.I was stunned, as though he'd awakened me while I was dreaming."What does it mean?" I asked my father."It means that underneath us, right here, there's a little freshwater spring. If we dig, we could drink from it. I've just taught you how to find a spring. It's something my own father taught me. It isn't something you learn in school. And it isn't useless: a man can get along without writing and arithmetic, but he can never get along without water."Much later, I discovered that my father was famous in the region because of what the people called his "gift": before digging a well they always consulted him; they would watch him prospecting the fields or the hills, eyes closed, hands clenched on the fork of an alder bough. Wherever my father stopped, they marked the ground; there they would dig; and there water would gush forth.Years passed; I went to other schools, saw other countries, I had children, I wrote some books and my poor father is lying in the earth where so many times he had found fresh water.One day someone began to make a film about my villageand its inhabitants, from whom I've stolen so many of the stories that I tell. With the film crew we went to see a farmer to capture the image of a sad man: his children didn't want to receive the inheritance he'd spent his whole life preparing for them—the finest farm in the area. While the technicians were getting cameras and microphones ready the farmer put his arm around my shoulders, saying:"I knew your father well.""Ah! I know. Everybody in the village knows each other... No one feels like an outsider.""You know what's under your feet?""Hell?" I asked, laughing."Under your feet there's a well. Before I dug I called in specialists from the Department of Agriculture; they did research, they analyzed shovelfuls of dirt; and they made a report where they said there wasn't any water on my land. With the family, the animals, the crops, I need water. When I saw that those specialists hadn't found any. I thought of your father and I asked him to come over. He didn't want to; I think he was pretty fed up with me because I'd asked those specialists instead of him. But finally came; he went and cut off a little branch, then he walked around for a while with his eyes shut; he stopped, he listened to something we couldn't hear and then he said to me: "Dig right here, there's enough water to get your whole flock drunk and drown your specialist besides." We dug and found water. Fine water that's never heard of pollution.The film people were ready; they called to me to take my place."I'm gonna show you something," said the farmer, keeping me back." You wait right here."He disappeared into a shack which he must have used to store things, then came back with a branch which he held out to me."I never throw nothing away; I kept the alder branch your father cut to find my water. I don't understand, it hasn't dried out."Moved as I touched the branch, kept out of I don't know what sense of piety—and which really wasn't dry—I had the feeling that my father was watching me over my shoulder; I closed my eyes and, standing above the spring my father had discovered, I waited for the branch to writhe, I hoped the sound of gushing water would rise to my ears.The alder stayed motionless in my hands and the water beneath the earth refused to sing.Somewhere along the roads I'd taken since the village of my childhood I had forgotten my father's knowledge."Don't feel sorry," said the man, thinking no doubt of his farm and his childhood; "nowadays fathers can't pass on anything to the next generation."And he took the alder branch from my hands.桤木树枝在我紧握的手指下扭动,如受惊的蛇一般。
