10篇英语阅读-带翻译题目答案版
OneYou must have been troubled by when to say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesn‟ t love you back? or if they do say. it but you don‟t feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerver racking(紧张）and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn‟ t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the oth er half has shown their hand fast?A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal," says psychologist Sidney Crown. "But love is seldom equal. " All. relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance contin ues for years, the rot will set in. "That feeling of ‟ I‟ ve always loved you more‟ may be subverted(颠覆，破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling(大声争吵). " In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. "The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings," says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. "The one with the upper hand i s often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the person who says ‟ I love you‟ first may also be the one who says ‟ I‟ m bored with you‟ first. " Hall believes that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the motivation of the person saying i t. "Is it said when they‟ re drunk? Is it said. before their partner files off on holiday, and what it really means is ‟ Please don‟ t be unfaithful to me‟ ? By saying ‟ I love you‟, they really saying‟ Do you love me?‟ If so, wouldn‟t it just be more hone st to say mat.Collins agrees that intention is everything. "It‟s not what is said, but how it‟ s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker.”51. What is the main idea of this passage?[ A ] The importance of "I love you"[ B ] The meaning of "I love you"[ C ] The time of saying "I love you".[ D ] The place of saying. "I love you"52. In the first sentence the author means that[ A ] it is easy to say "I love you"[ B ] it is hard to say "I love you"[ C ] we have many troubles in our life[ D ] people usually do not know when to say "I love you"53. According to the expert, a good relationship should be[ A ] fair and equal[ B ] fair and kind[ C ] powerful and equal[ D] confident and fair54. In the third paragraph, the phrase "with the upper hand" means[ A ] being low in spirit[ B ] having only one hand[ C ] being active[ D ] being passive55. What is the most important for you to consider when somebody say "I love you"to you?[ A ] The intention.[ B ] The place.[ C ] The time.[ D ] The determination.Text 2 参考译文你一定曾经为何时说“我爱你”而烦恼过，因为这是我们生活中的一大难题。
我若为王选译(原创)
汉英翻译浅尝（课堂展示）原创我若为王（节选）我若为王，我的儿子，假如我有儿子，就是太子或王子了。
我并不认为我的儿子会是一无所知一无所能的白痴，也仍旧是太子或王子。
一个太子或王子是如何地尊贵呀，会如何地被人们像捧天上的星星一样地捧来捧去呀。
假如我能够想像，倒是件不是没有趣味的事。
If I were the KingIf I were the king, my son would be the crown prince or prince if I had. He definitely would not be the moron, I believe, who involved nothing with knowledge-ability and capability. Even if possible, he would still be the honorable man. Imagine how noble and respectable a prince was and how he would be flattered as how the shiny stars in the sky are admired by the mass! This must be quite interesting if I could imagine.翻译思考：1、“王”是归化还是异化？归化还是异化，还是要看双方文化上的异同。
若是源语有的，译入语没有，那就要保留源语的文化色彩；若有的话，就尽量用归化的方法（除非是为了强调源语文化）。
在课堂上展示，是用的emperor，一来写的是中国的王，二来是太子的父亲。
张老师觉得没必要在这边纠结，翻成英语，要对等的话，更好的是用king。
去网上看了看，张培基和刘世聪先生选用的都是king。
想想，也确实如此。
2、“若”字虚拟用法的使用。
英汉语在一些地方还是基本对等的，比如：汉语的“着、了、过”分别对应英语的“进行时、完成时和过去时”。
2021北京主城区高三英语二模阅读七选五汇总 带答案
2021城区高三英语二模阅读七选五汇总2021海淀二模What Are the Roots of Your Self-Esteem?Self-esteem is a person's subjective assessment of his or her worth to himself or herself. Self-esteem covers various beliefs about oneself (such as "I’m a failure and I’m beautiful”) as well as physiological states, including sadness, joy, and shame. The more we believe that we are worthy of happiness and good things in life, the more self-fulfilled we will be. When we don't believe that we are worthy of these things, our ability to enjoy them can suffer. 35 Healthy self-esteem as an adult can be a gift given in your childhood. It is a blessing that most people overlook. There are so many ways adults with high self-esteem were supported as children that resulted in them having high self-esteem. For instance, they were praised for what they had achieved. 36 They likely experienced affection and were given enough attention. It is also possible that they excelled in studies or in sports and were admired for it by peers.__37__ As children, many of these people were criticized, yelled at, or abused in one way or another. There is also a high chance that they were given no attention by the adults who were supposed to care for them. In some cases, adults with poor self-esteem were often ridiculed for their shortcomings or bullied by peers.It is common that these adults also believe that in order to be appreciated they need to be perfect 38 There are people who are obsessed with their careers or hobbies because in their mind they need to tie their worthiness to something concrete. Oftentimes these people have to pretend to be something they are not just to get approval.How you feel about yourself impacts how you live your life. People with high self-esteem tend to have better relationships than those with low self-esteem. 39 So if you struggle to reach out for assistance, it could be rooted in your low self-esteem.A. There is also a good chance that they were spoken to respectfully.B. When we start to doubt what's important in life, we tend to do less of it.C. Since self-esteem is connected to how we perform, it is important to work on it.D. People with poor self-esteem, on the other hand, often experienced the opposite.E. This creates an image in their mind that without accomplishment they are worthless.F. They face failure too, but they understand that failure or success doesn’t define them.G. High self-esteem enables you to ask for help and support from the people around you when you need it.2021西城二模You're faced with a lot of decisions in everyday work. There are multiple tasks calling for your focus, and you are burning daylight or even burn out trying to decide what comes first. ___35____If you're going to think smarter about how you prioritize(排序) tasks, you have to invest a little time away from your to-do list. Here's the thing: what you work on confirms your values. You may think it's no big thing to work overtime for a little while, but something will be sacrificed with this decision. If you're a parent, you might spend less time with your kids. Similarly, if you choose not to work much or effectively, you're deciding that your values lie outside your career.___ 36___Write all the tasks down and create four boxes containing all of things you care about. This could be: helps the community, helps one-to-one relationships, makes money, and things you find personally fulfilling. Then place them in the boxes and see how many of the boxes each one takes up. Anything that fills just one box has to be reconsidered. Anything that fills nothing should not be considered at all. 37 From here, the rest of the prioritization gets a little easier. You now have a better idea where the efforts are really paying off. You also know when you are wasting your own time.In order to figure out a plan for yourself. the first thing you should be doing is gathering all of your tasks, large and small. 38 Other people are counting on you or your future self will depend on them somehow. These are actually easier to prioritize. Then break down large tasks into smaller pieces. That helps put things in order. Part of the reason we do the small things first is that being productive feels good. Acknowledging accomplishments makes you more likely to keep going and pushes you through the more complicated tasks.____39____ Notice when your energy levels are high and when they are weak. Be aware when you re more productive for social activities and when you're better off. The more you study yourself, the easier planning becomes.Now that you have your priorities in order go ahead and you will boost your productivity.A. You can also prioritize based on energy levels.B. The good news is that some tasks can keep you motivated.C. So how can you figure out what's most important to work on first?D. This activity allows you to see where you really want to invest your energy.E. If you want to make a new list, you need to turn to your colleagues for helpF. There are some tasks that are pretty straightforward and you need to do the thing.G. Where you invest your time is not just about what you value but also what you don't value.2021东城二模Five Established Memory BoostersCan’t remember where you left your car keys again? 35 And as smartphones and tablets make it possible to outsource memory storage to our devices, the act of forgetting may be easier than ever. But scientists are still discovering how everyday actions can lead to enhancements in our overall memory capacity. Here are a few simple tips for mastering your memory: GET SOME SLEEP. As we’re sleeping, our brains change recent experiences into long-term memory, a process known as consolidation. 36 A 2014 Science study found mice that slept after acquiring a new task were able to preserve the memory better than their counterparts lacking in sleep.EXERCISE REGULARL Y. If you need another reason to hit the gym, regular exercise—specifically, aerobic exercise—has been shown to enhance memory recall, particularly in young adults. For older adults, it can even put off brain shrinkage.EAT MORE BERRIES. 37 A growing body of research suggests that snacking on strawberries, blueberries and blackberries can boost the brain’s communication pathways. Andeating berries, according to a 2012 study, could actually slow memory decline caused by aging.SAY IT OUT LOUD. 38 But researchers have learned that saying them out loud — rather than reading information silently—can result in a major memory upgrade. If you’re feeling shy, you can also try typing or writing it out, too.GO TO YOUR MEMORY PALACE.39 One of these is the method of loci(轨迹记忆法), or the visualizing of information as major stops along a mental journey, like an imaginary walk through your childhood home. A 2017 study found that this technique actually reshapes different networks of the brain to better support memory.A. Remembering new concepts isn’t always easy.B. And a good night’s sleep can help you learn, too.C. Sufficient amounts of vitamin B2 can improve your memory.D. Changing habits is hard, but having more fruit doesn’t sound so bad, right?E. And we are beginning to understand the importance of sleep to overall health.F. Strategies for supercharging our memories have been around since ancient times.G. With numerous businesses to deal with in our brain, it’s easy to let a few things slip through.2021朝阳二模People Who Can’t CountA recent study has discovered that dyscalculia, the mathematical inability in reading, affects about 5% of children in Britain. There is no simple way of finding out the reason and kids with this learning disability are usually labelled unintelligent.So what exactly is this learning disability in mathematics? Unlike most people, dyscalculics cannot recognise three or four objects. 35 For example, they need to count the books on the table before they can say how many there are. In other words, they have to count them one by one. This is where they are different from others. The majority of us, if shown three or four similar things, can immediately recognise them.36 They cannot understand, for instance, why two and three makes five. Anotherproblem is not being able to tell which group contains more objects than the other. Experiments have proved that dyscalculics have not developed the part of the brain responsible for processing numbers.There are also problems with the abstract concept of time for dyscalculics. 37 If your best friend is always late, he might be suffering from dyscalculia. Dyscalculics cannot keep track of time, and they never know how much time they have spent getting ready and how long it will take them to get to work. In addition, research has shown that dyscalculics behave oddly in social situations. 38 This poor ability can explain why they never know how much change they are due or what kind of budget they need for their holiday.On the other hand, dyscalculics are very good at creative arts. People suffering from dyscalculia can become painters or poets. Dyscalculia does not seem to delay language acquisition. Dyscalculic children acquire language at the same time as, if not earlier than, most children and have no problem learning to read or write. 39A. Dyscalculics have difficulties in using numbers at all.B. This disability scares children away from learning mathematics.C. They have to go through the routine of counting even a small number of objects.D. It is quite reasonable for dyscalculics to solve this kind of specific problem at any time.E. They never know how much they should tip the waiter or they’ve got left after a shopping trip.F. We can see that dyscalculia is only a learning disability, not a general indication of intelligence.G. This can account for their difficulty in reading schedules and remembering the order in which things have happened.2021丰台二模People Who Can’t CountA recent study has discovered that dyscalculia, the mathematical inability in reading, affects about 5% of children in Britain.

The drone pilot was flying the gadget by his home when its rotors (旋翼) hit tree. The drone went out of control, falling into neighbour’s backyard where a young child was playing. The rotors were still spinning fast and a blade struck the child. 36Sometimes drones can just fly away quickly or drift away with the wind for many different reasons. The software that has been loaded into the drone could break down, or the global positioning system (GPS) could be faulty. 37 Drone makers are trying to work out ways to stop these things happening.38 People have tried to catch them in giant nets, but this can cause more problems than the rogue drone itself. In some countries, eagles are taught to identify drone as prey. Then they swoop down and grab the drone from the sky with their long, strong claws. When they take the drone to a safe place, they are rewarded for their efforts.Drones can be harmful, having caused a lot of serious damage to buildings and people.39 At a sports event, drones can be used to give spectators a view from above or help coaches see how their players are doing. They are also becoming a useful tool for firefighters, helping them spot wildfires and even assisting to fight them. Drones can spy on populations of animals in the wild, especially endangered ones. In some very remote places in the world, drones are the fastest way to deliver medicine to people who need it desperately.A. However, they can also be very helpful.B. Sadly, this little boy lost his sight in one eye.C. However, this is not just the end to the disaster.D. Trying to get a drone out of the sky can be difficult.E. So drones should be banned and only used by governments.F. Drones can become flyaways, caught up in a jet stream and blown away.G. All of above would cause the drone to lose its connection with the controller.2021顺义二模I have met many westerners who do not feel anything to put their feet on the table while sitting on the chair. 35 They don't feel like it is a strange or rude thing to do it. And I know that they don't mean to be ill-behaved. However, in the eyes of a Myanmarese, it is really a very rude thing.For Myanmarese, the head is the most sacred (神圣的) part of the human body while the feet are the most inferior part. 36 They touch ground, dirt, mud and garbage. Just think. of all the dirty things lying on the ground. So the Myanmarese regard feet as the most dirty and smelly part of one's body.37 When you put that dirty part of your body onto other people's clean table, it is like an insult ( 侮辱) to that person if that person is a Myanmarese. There is nothing more insulting to a Myanmarese than to point your feet towards him. So, if you want to win the heart of your Myanmarese friends, next time when you drop in on him or he visits you, try not to put your feet on the living room table or point your feet towards him. Indeed, your feet should never be pointing to the direction of a person or a sacred place. 38Possibly, your Myanmarese friend will not say anything even if you do it. But it does not mean that he is OK with your behavior or approves of your behavior. 39 Even if that person is your employee or your house maid, you should never do it to him or her.A. This seems a normal habit to them.B. In his heart he will consider you as a rude person.C. Whatever you do, don't touch the head of a Myanmarese.D. This is the rule that you must strictly follow in Myanmar.E. Being the lowest part, they are also considered the dirtiest part.F For Myanmarese, the dirty part should only be in the lowest place.C. Myanmarese people do 1no express themselves us directly as Westerners.2021海淀二模35. B 36. A 37. D 38. E 39.

下面是店铺带来的长篇中英文对照英语美文，欢迎阅读!长篇中英文对照英语美文篇一我若为王If I Were King聂绀弩Nie Gannu在电影刊物上看见一个影片的名字：《我若为王》。
从这影片的名字，我想到和影片毫无关系的另外的事。
我想，自己如果做了王，这世界会成为一种怎样的光景呢?这自然是一种完全可笑的幻想，我根本不想做王，也根本看不起王，王是什么东西呢?难道我脑中还有如此封建的残物么?而且真想做王的人，他将用他的手法去打天下，决不会放在口里说的。
但是假定又假定，我若为王，这世界会成为一种怎样的光景?Recently in a movie magazine I came across the title of a film: If I Were King. It has put me in mind of something entirely foreign to the film in question. I wonder what would become of this world if I myself were king. This is of course a ridiculous fancy, for being a king is the last thing I aspire to and also a thing I utterly despise. What the hell is a king? How can I still be so feudalistic in my mind? Moreover, if one is really bent on being a king, he will try to carry out his design by deeds instead of by words. But, to put it hypothetically, suppose I were king, what would this world look like?我若为王，自然我的妻就是王后了。

We got $6,000 each. Judge Thatcher, an important man in St. Petersburg, put it in the bank, and now we get a dollar a day interest (利息).Then a kind old lady called Douglas invited me to live with her because I haven’t got a family or a home. My mother died a long time ago, then my dad, Pap, disappeared. He was a violent (暴力的) man especially when he drank a lot, which was most of the time, and he often beat me. I was scared of him. I didn’t go to school like the other boys of my age. I lived on the streets and in the woods.My life changed after I lived with Douglas. She gave me a bed to sleep in and bought new clothes for me. She read stories to me and taught me how to eat at a table. But then her sister Miss Watson arrived. She brought her black slave (奴隶) Jim with her. I liked Jim but I didn’t like Miss Watson very much. She often shouted at me.Douglas sent me to school every day. I didn’t like going there at first because learning was very difficult. But when I could read and write a bit, I didn’t mind going.The months passed and winter came. The weather got cold. One morning I woke up and there was snow on the ground. On my way to school I saw some footprints outside Douglas’s house. There was a cross on the heel (脚后跟)of the left one. My heart jumped. Only one person wore boots with a cross on the left heel! Pap!“He’s heard about my ________” I thought. “And he wants it!”That night I went to see Jim. Jim had a magic ball made of animal hair.

Instead, she just heard sparrows making noise in the bushes. “Maybe Gulliver missed the harbour.” Dad said. After breakfast, Katie took her camera to the harbour. All the colourful boats made pretty pictures, but not the one she wanted most.Katie waved to Ernest, her uncle’s neighbour, on the boathouse. The gull’s name, Gulliver, was given by him.The gull’s size and his single leg made the bird itself different. But Ernest told Katie what Gulliver did that first summer Katie and her dad came caught everyone’s attention. Young Katie lay in her stroller (婴儿车) on the floating dock (码头) when Uncle Ralph and Dad were repairing boats nearby. The waves from the passing boat made Katie’s stroller shake strongly. “Kee-aah! Kee-aah!” Gulliver made the loudest cry. Dad and uncle rushed to Katie and stopped the stroller from falling into the water. They kept a close eye at Katie after that. Another summer Katie was three years old, she liked to touch everything. But Dad didn’t watch her every minute when she tried to catch small ducks around or fish from water. “Kee-aah! Kee-aah!” The gull’s cry brought Dad back in time. He stopped Katie as she tried to follow the small ducks running towards water. Several summers passed, and Gulliver continued to call out as Katie tried new things.This summer Katie did the usual by-the-sea things she’d learned to do. One day, she rowed a boat out but was trapped on a rock by a storm. As she looked up and tried to catch the last warmth of the sunshine through dark clouds, she saw a single white feather. A gull feather? She searched the sky for an answer. Putting her arms around knees, she closed eyes to hold in the tears (眼泪). “Kee-aah! Kee-aah!” Katie sat up. “Katie! Katie!” Soon, Dad and Uncle Ralph appeared. “How lucky! We heard Gulliver as we came around the rocks,” Uncle Ralph said, “At least… it sounded like him.

Everything was ugly.They came to where an old man sat. He was selling dirty pieces of cloth, smelly old bones, and all kinds of old and useless things.

They carried large bags.“Come and sit by the fire,” the shopkeeper said. “Tell me what you have to sell me.”“Nothing a dead man will miss,” the first woman said with a nasty（让人讨厌的）laugh.“If he wanted to keep them after he was dead, why wasn’t he a good man when he was alive?

Chapter thirty-two.答案
Chapter thirty-two.答案即使被召唤出的仅是雪丹尘的灵魂力量，但『双月』的实力不容小觑，整个地下藏宝阁在一瞬间被寒气弥漫，连一温一度都在无形间降低了不少。
这种王者俯视般的压迫感，就仿佛面前掀起了遮天蔽日的大一浪一，根本无法逃脱。
半透明状态下的雪丹尘淡然地环顾了四周，悄然间看了一眼默默站在远处却让人无法忽视她的凉沫悠，眼里翻滚着众多的情绪。
最终转过头去，气势渐渐收起。
“许久不见，莫家的现任家主。
还有您的孩子。
”雪丹尘轻扬嘴角，声音润润的，有点像发散着清香的核桃，“没想到唐战老先生的孙子，韵枫的徒弟，还有……惜儿的女儿也都在这。
以及小凉子，好久未见。
”凉沫悠单手扶额：“小尘尘你怎么还记得这个称呼……”“你不也还一直叫我那个根本不适合吾的称呼么。
”雪丹尘看她一眼。
语罢，雪丹尘附身看向一旁的洛基：“初次见面，风雪神殿的下任殿主。
”其余人都还未处理完脑海中庞大的信息量，各个人有些呆呆的望着，不知该如何回答。
毕竟现在站在自己面前的，可是两百年前便已逝去的冰雪王者，唯一一个冰系魔法能够达到『双月』级别的雪丹尘啊！“时间真是不愿停下它匆忙的脚步，没想到吾再次被召唤竟然是在两百年之后了。
”雪丹尘并未察觉到任何的不对劲，自顾自地感慨一声，字里行间都沉淀了百年的沧桑感。
“现任莫家家主莫玄。
”“莫家独子莫枫。
”“拜见风雪神殿殿主雪丹尘。
”莫玄抹了一把眼泪，和儿子一起郑重地鞠了个躬。
那一句话是那么的铿锵有力，不知凝结了多少无法言说的情绪。
“不必，吾现在已不是你们的殿主了。
”雪丹尘扯出一抹淡淡的苦笑。
洛基怔怔地盯着雪丹尘那张如冰雪雕刻般完美无瑕的脸，似乎除了瞳色和发色，自己没有一丝一毫是与他相似的。
可内心此刻的涌动是不会骗人的……他一直在怀疑。
从睁开眼的那一刻开始，他就是令人厌恶的，无论走到何处，只要有人看到他的狼耳和狼尾，都会像看见病毒一般躲得远远的。
他不知道自己的父母，不知道自己是如何诞生在这个世界，不知道自己是谁。
英语故事-百喻经之五五- 愿为王剃须喻
英语故事百喻经之五五: 愿为王剃须喻§55 愿为王剃须喻(55) to be a king’s barber昔者有王，有一亲信，于军阵中，殁命救王，使得安全。
王大欢喜，与其所愿。
即便问言：“汝何所求，恣汝所欲。
”once upon a time, a king’s personal attendant risked his life to save the king at the battlefield. the king was so grateful that he gave his lifesaver whatever he wanted. the king asked, “what do you want? your wishes shall be granted.”臣便答言：“王剃须时，愿听我剃。
”the man replied, “allow me to shave you when you need a shave.”王言：“此事若适汝意，听汝所愿。
”the king said, “if that is what you wish to do, i’ll grant it to you.”如此愚人，世人所笑。
半国之治，大臣辅相，悉皆可得，乃求贱业。
愚人亦尔。
such a stupid man is laughed at by the people at large. it would be so much better for the barber to ask for half a country or to become prime minister or minister of state rather than to practice the mean profession. only a stupid man would do so.诸佛于无量劫难行苦行，自至成佛，若得遇佛，及值遗法，人身难得。

假如我是王的女儿英语作文
假如我是王的女儿英语作文Title: The Life of a King's Daughter。
As the daughter of a king, my life is a tapestry woven with threads of privilege, responsibility, and expectation. From the moment I drew my first breath within the walls of the palace, I became a character in a story already unfolding—a story of lineage, tradition, and duty.First and foremost, being the daughter of a king means shouldering the weight of expectation. From the earliest age, I was taught that my actions and demeanor reflect not just upon myself, but upon my family and the kingdom as a whole. Every word I speak, every gesture I make, is scrutinized under the lens of royal scrutiny. There is a pressure to embody grace, intelligence, and dignity at all times, for any misstep could have repercussions beyond my own sphere.Yet, amidst the weight of expectation, there is alsothe warmth of privilege. I am afforded luxuries that many can only dream of—lavish banquets, sumptuous clothing, and the finest education money can buy. The walls of the palace are my playground, and the sprawling gardens my sanctuary. But with privilege comes isolation. The gilded cage of royalty can be suffocating at times, leaving me yearningfor a taste of the freedom that lies beyond the palace gates.However, being the daughter of a king is not merely about opulence and obligation—it is also about service. From a young age, I was instilled with a sense of duty to my people, to use my position of influence for the betterment of the kingdom. Whether it be through charitable works, public appearances, or diplomatic engagements, I am reminded that my role extends far beyond the comforts of palace life. There is a responsibility to be a beacon of hope, a symbol of strength, in times of turmoil and uncertainty.Despite the challenges and responsibilities that come with being a king's daughter, there is also profound loveand pride. My father, though burdened with the weight ofhis crown, has always been a source of unwavering support and guidance. He sees not just the princess, but the person beneath the title—a daughter with dreams, fears, and aspirations of her own.In the end, being the daughter of a king is a complex tapestry of privilege, responsibility, and sacrifice. It is a life of opulence and obligation, of isolation and service. But amidst it all, there beats the heart of a young woman striving to find her place in a world defined by tradition and expectation. And though the path may be fraught with challenges, I walk it with pride, knowing that I am a partof something greater than myself—a legacy that stretches back through generations, and forward into the unknown future.。
初三暑假英语阅读理解及答案示例
初三暑假英语阅读理解及答案示例初三暑假英语阅读理解及答案示例AWhen I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my fathers friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernies place. We d sit on the edge of the dock（码头）, feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal.Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then wed bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart-the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part-and throw away the rest.Bernie was my fathers idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernies wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you dont take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy lifes small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.For many years, I forgot that lesson Id learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.Well, Ive relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. Thats the heart of the watermelon.

【暑假作业1】TheWeightoftheGlass-阅读-4个故事
【暑假作业1】TheWeightoftheGlass-阅读-4个故事【暑假作业系列1】------英语阅读Four Short Stories That Will Change Your Attitude“There’s always room for a short story that can transport people to another time and place.”― J.K. RowlingLet me distract you for a moment…It’s story time!I’ve told the following short stories to our students, readers, and conference attendees dozens of times over the past decade, and I usually get thanked for doing so. The people and circumstances differ slightly every time I tell them, but the core lessons and narratives are grounded in truth.My challenge for you today is to read the first story below. Then come back tomorrow and read the next one. Give yourself a little extra perspective every day this week. See how doing so changes your thinking from day to day…Story Two:The Weight of the GlassTw enty years ago, when Angel and I were just undergrads in college, our psychology professor taught us a lesson we’ve never forgotten.On the last day of class before graduation, she walked up on stage to teach one final lesson, which she called “a vital lesson on the power of perspective and mindset.”As she raised a glass of water over her head, everyone expected her to mention the typ ical “glass half empty or glass half full” metaphor.Instead, with a smile on her face, our professor asked, “How heavy is this glass of water I’m holding?”Students shouted out answers ranging from a couple ofounces to a couple of pounds.After a few moments of fielding answers and nodding her head, she replied, “From my perspect ive, the absolute weight of this glass is irrelevant. It all depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute or two, it’s fairly light.If I hold it for an hour straight, its weight might make my arm ache. If I hold it for a day straight, my arm will likely cramp up and feel completely numb and paralyzed, forcing me to drop the glass to the floor. In each case, the absolute weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it feels to me.”As most of us students nodded our heads in agreement, she continued. “Yourworries, frustrations, disappointments, and stressful thoughts are very much like this glass of water. Think about them for a little while and nothing drastic happens. Think about them a bit longer and you begin to feel noticeable pain. Think about them all day long, and you will feel completely numb and paralyzed, incapable of doing anything else until you drop them.”Question:1.What did the psychology professor want to tell the students?A.The longer you hold the glass , the heavier it feels to you.B.The earlier you drop your negative thoughts ,the better.C.Your negative thoughts are very much like a glass of waterD.The weight of the glass actually depends on how long you hold it.【参考答案】 1. B。
2021温州市高考英语短文改错及阅理自练附答案9
【阅读理解】Peanuts to ThisProudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way？”Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip(掷)a coin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails，my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear，“My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” The whole world became qui et! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster's office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my opinion to skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!1．What did the author's classmates think about his report?A．Controversial. B．Ridiculous. C．Boring. D．Puzzling.2．Why was the author confused about the task?A．He was unfamiliar with American history.B．He followed the advice and flipped a coin.C．He forgot his teacher's instruction.D．He was new at the school.3．The underlined word“burning”in Para. 3 probably means ________.A．annoyed B．ashamed C．ready D．eager4．In the end, the author turned things around ________.A．by redoing his task B．through his own effortsC．with the help of his grandfather D．under the guidance of his headmaster 【要点综述】本文叙述了作者作为一个外来移民初入美国学校时，由于对美国历史不了解而闹出的一个笑话，但作者通过努力最终最终提高成果并实现跳级。

两分钟做个小测试，看看你的英语水平/test/kuaisu.aspx?tid=16-73675-0在电影刊物上看见一个影片的名字：《我若为王》。
从这影片的名字，我想到和影片毫无关系的另外的事。
我想，自己如果做了王，这世界会成为一种怎样的光景呢？这自然是一种完全可笑的幻想，我根本不想做王，也根本看不起王，王是什么东西呢？难道我脑中还有如此封建的残物么？而且真想做王的人，他将用他的手法去打天下，决不会放在口里说的。
但是假定又假定，我若为王，这世界会成为一种怎样的光景？Recently in a movie magazine I came across the title of a film: If I Were King. It has put me in mind of something entirely foreign to the film in question. I wonder what would become of this world if I myself were king. This is of course a ridiculous fancy, for being a king is the last thing I aspire to and also a thing I utterly despise. What the hell is a king? How can I still be so feudalistic in my mind? Moreover, if one is really bent on being a king, he will try to carry out his design by deeds instead of by words. But, to put it hypothetically, suppose I were king, what would this world look like?我若为王，自然我的妻就是王后了。
我的妻的德性，我不怀疑，为王后只会有余的。
但纵然没有任何德性，纵然不过是个娼妓，那时候，她也仍旧是王后。
一个王后是如何地尊贵呀，会如何地被人们像捧着天上的星辰一样捧来捧去呀，假如我能够想象，那一定是一件有趣的事情。
If I were king, my wife would of course be queen. With all her moral excellence, of which I make no doubt, she would be more than qualified for being a queen. But even if she had no virtue to speak of, or were just a whore, she would be queen all the same. Imagine how noble and dignified a queen would be and how people would keep lauding her to the skies like mad! It is indeed great fun for me to visualize all of this.我若为王，我的儿子，假若我有儿子，就是太子或王子了，我并不以为我的儿子会是一无所知，一无所能的白痴，但纵然是一无所知一无所能的白痴，也仍旧是太子或王子。
一个太子或王子是如何地尊贵呀，会如何地被人们像捧天上的星星一样地捧来捧去呀。
假如我能想象，倒是件不是没有趣味的事。
If I were king, my son, if any, would be crown prince or prince. I don't think my son will be ignorant or worthless in every way like an idiot. But even if that were not the case, he would still be crown prince or prince. Imagine how noble and dignified a crown prince or prince would be and how people would keep lauding him to the skies like mad! It is indeed great fun for me to visualize all of this.我若为王，我的女儿就是公主；我的亲眷都是皇亲国戚。
无论他们怎样丑陋，怎样顽劣，怎样……也会被人们像捧天上的星星一样捧来捧去，因为他们是贵人。
If I were king, my daughters would be princesses, and my relatives by marriage would all become members of the royal family. No matter how ugly and perverse or whatnot they were, people would keep lauding them to the skies like mad just the same because they were dignitaries.我若为王，我的姓名就会改作：“万岁”，我的每一句话都成为：“圣旨”。
我的意欲、我的贪念，乃至每一个幻想，都可竭尽全体臣民的力量去实现，即使是无法实现的。
我将没有任何过失，因为没有人敢说它是过失；我将没有任何罪行，因为没有人敢说它是罪行。
没有人敢呵斥我，指摘我，除非把我从王位上赶下来。
但是赶下来，就是我不为王了。
我将看见所有的人们在我面前低头，鞠躬，匍匐，连同我的尊长、我的师友，和从前曾经在我面前昂头阔步耀武扬威的人们。
我将看不见一个人的脸，所看见的只是他们的头顶或帽盔儿。
或者所能看见的脸都是谄媚的，乞求的，快乐的时候不敢笑，不快乐的时候不敢不笑，悲戚的时候不敢哭，不悲戚的时候不敢不哭的脸。
我将听不见人们的真正的声音，所能听见的都是低微的柔婉的畏葸和娇痴的，唱小旦的声音：“万岁，万岁！万万岁！”这是他们的全部语言。
“有道明君！伟大的主上啊！”这是那语言的全部内容。
没有在我之上的人了，没有和我同等的人了，我甚至会感到单调，寂寞和孤独。
If I were king, I would be addressed as "Your Majesty" and every word of mine would become a "royal edict". All my subjects would leave no stone unturned to carry out every will, every avaricious desire and even every whim of mine, even though they were beyond the possible. I would do no wrong simply because noone dared to call it a wrong. I would commit no crime simply because no one dared to call it a crime. No one would dare to berate or find fault with me unless I was removed from the throne, which meant that I was no longer the king. I would see all people hang their heads, bow low or prostrate themselves at my feet, including my respected elders, teachers, friends and even those who had used to swagger arrogantly in front of me. I could see none of their faces; all I could see were the tops of their heads or the hats or helmets on their heads. The only faces I could see would be ingratiating or supplicating—faces that dared not smile to express joy; faces that dared not refrain from a forced smile when there was no joy at all to justify a smile; faces that dared not to cry to express sorrow; faces that dared not refrain from a feigned cry when there was no sorrow to justify a cry. I could hear no true voices of my people. All I could hear would be the feeble, soft, timid and affected voice, like that of female Peking opera singer, chanting, "Long live the King!" That would be their language in toto. "Great is the King, our enlightened lord!" That would be the sole content of their language. There would be no one above me or on an equal footing with me. I would even feel bored, lonely and isolated.为什么人们要这样呢？为什么要捧我的妻，捧我的儿女和亲眷呢？因为我是王，是他们的主子，我将恍然大悟：我生活在这些奴才们中间，连我所敬畏的尊长和师友也无一不是奴才，而自己也不过是一个奴才的首领。
