高级英语lesson2-marrakech课堂笔记

MarrakechGeorge Orwell1 As the corpse went past the flies left the restaurant table in a cloud and rushed after it, but they came back a few minutes later.2 The little crowd of mourners -- all men and boys, no women--threaded their way across（break ones way）the market place between the piles of pomegranates and the taxis and the camels, walling a short chant over and over again. What really appeals to the flies is that the corpses here are never put into coffins, they are merely wrapped in a piece of rag and carried on a rough wooden bier on the shoulders of four friends. When the friends get to the burying-ground they hack an oblong hole a foot or two deep, dump the body in it and fling over it a little of the dried-up, lumpy earth, which is like broken brick. No gravestone, no name, no identifying mark of any kind. The burying-ground is merely a huge waste of hummocky earth, like a derelict building-lot. After a month or two no one can even be certain where his own relatives are buried.1.一具尸体抬过，成群的苍蝇从饭馆的餐桌上嗡嗡而起追逐过去，但几分钟过后又飞了回来。

Simile: A simile makes a comparison between two unlike things having at least one quality or characteristic in common. The two things compared must be dissimilar and the basis of resemblance is usually an abstract quality. The vehicle is almost always introduced by the word "like" or "as".1) The bus went as slowly as a snail.2) Her eyes were jet black, and her hair was like a waterfall.2. Metaphor is considered the most important and basic poetic figure and also the commonest the most beautiful.1) Snow clothes the ground.2) The town was stormed after a long siege.3) Boys and girls, tumbling in the streets and playing, were moving jewels.Examples in the text:1) I had a lump in my throat2) At last this intermezzo came to an end...3) I was again crushed by the thought...4) ...when the meaning ... sank in, jolting me...3.

Irony: People say the opposite of what they mean. For example, if the day has been terrible, you say, “Boy, this has been a great day!”Irony is more emphatic than a point-blank statement of the truth. It achieves its effect by reminding you of the opposite reality and this providing a scale by which to judge the resent reality.1) Hiroshima---the Liveliest City in Japan2) the good fortune that my illness has brought me6.

Lesson Twelve The Everlasting Witness Words and ExpressionsText Explanation1 a thousand and one felicitous birdsa great number of birds singing merrily2Marian's brother-in-law read the English page, as dedicated as a nice little boy reading the funnies…the English page refers to the special page printed in English of the local paper.the funnies are comic strips in newspaper.Her brother-in-law read the English page with such great interest and attention that he did not join in the conversation. 3Theresa's bright smile had always been her mark and now, childless and with a husband beyond war age, and a life bothordered and gay, it looked as if that smile had justified itself.Theresa always had a bright smile which is typical of her character. It seemed reasonable for her to have the smile. Her husband was beyond war age so she did not have to worry about his being drafted for war. And they were leading an orderly and happy life without their children living with them.4Marian opened her mouth to tell them what she had done the night before and then she closed it on brioche, no words.She opened her mouth to say something, and then she changed her mind and bit the brioche instead, saying nothing.5the trip to Mexico was for her to find herself, get back on her feetthe trip to Mexico was for her to find out what kind of situation she was in and get rid of her mental suffering and return to her normal condition.on one's feet: be in good health after an illness 痊愈，复原It's nice to see you on your feet again.6who was Jerry's stepfather and therefore involved multifoldly in her sufferingJerry's stepfather was worried about his wife and, for her sake, about her son.7For the matter she would drive herself and keep the whole event within her control.She would drive her own car to the cinema. In this way she could have all the freedom and plenty of time to decide what to do, when to do it and how long it should take.8But that part had not worked because she hadn't been able to let it work.That part refers to her husband's assumption that she would not be able to find the newsreel in Mexico.But she was determined to find, and in fact had found three cinemas that had the newsreel on show. And because of that, her husband's assumption hadn't worked. In other words, it hadn't come true.9She had to manage him alone, had sometimes failed him, had sometimes been burdened too greatly.She alone had had to teach him how to behave, had sometimes disappointed him by not meeting his needs, and had sometimes had to bear too much work so as to keep the family going.10…but this had not given him a retroactive father for the twelve-thirteen-fourteen-year-old times of crisis.…but this had not given him a father whose help he had needed most in his difficult early teens. It is believed that the early teens are a critical period of time for the growth of a boy.11She could hardly remember now what happened to her after the notification.She could hardly remember now what happened to her after she was notified her son was missing in action.12Nightmares of looking for him over hills of rubbled dying…She had nightmares in which she was looking for him amony the dying soldiers lying in rubbles over one hill after another…13Once two indolent people in the seats next to theirs delayed them…Once two impolite people in the seats next to theirs were so lazy as not to stand up in time for them to pass…14Her husband was lost to her.She was so absorbed in the newsreel that she forgot about the presence of her husband.15But she knew that no emotion was pertinent.Watching those shining new weapons for death, she could not help but become emotional and her hands and her neck began to sweat. But she knew that it was not a time for her to bring in any emotion.pertinent: having to do with the matter in hand.16She felt her blood pricking along her temples and there was pressure in her chest below the hollow.She felt a sharp pain along ther temples as if the blood was bursting out and there was pressure on her heart.17So strong a hope must play delaying games.Marian strongly hoped to see Jerry, but at the same time she was afraid that it might not be Jerry. So, psychologically, she tried to put off that decisive moment for fear of being disappointed, thus feeling as if the scene was delayed in coming.18She got out of her seat still unconscious of her husband.This shows that her mind was fully occupied by what she had seen in the picture.19We ain't going to play up to this and grin from ear to ear to make out we're well off…We are not going to make use of this film to gain anything for ourselves and grin ear to ear to show that we arein pretty good condition.We are not going to put on smiles and look nice so as to pretend for the film we are happy as prisoners of war.play up to: flatter 献媚He always plays up to his political bosses.be well of: provided with enough supply 供应充裕的He is well off for bright ideas.20That was hope and she had to feed it.She had the feeling that the newsreel should last a little longer, and that gave her hope that her son might be still alive.She must keep this hope alive and go to see the newsreel in other cinemas.21Up to now Theresa went with her, or dropped her and picked her up.Up to now Theresa either went with her to the flower market, or drove her there, let her get out of the car and then drove back, and then came back at an appointed time to take her back home.22This is the day. But what day?This is the day for her to go and see the newsreel alone, to find out if her son is in the newsreel. But is it going to be a satisfying day? Will she see her son in the newsreel or not? These are Marian's inner thoughts.23…she would simply make waiting womanly and rational.she would endure all her emotional distress like a woman, waiting for her son to come back in a patient and reasonable manner.24The uncertainty was at last behind her.She no longer felt uncertain about her son's life. She had made a decision.25Now she could go, whatever was that need for buying flowers, taken care of.No matter what need it was for buying flowers, she had that need taken care of when she left the flowers in the woman's place. So now she could go to the cinema.26Everything was getting ready for this moment.This moment refers to watching the newsreel.27Either she could tolerate.she had made a decision, so she felt she could endure either-her son's death or his being alive.28It did not occur to her that the newsreel might not be there.She did not think of the possibility that the newsreel might not be there.29She came in the middle of a French costume picture.A French costume picture is a film in which the actors wear French historical clothes (古装片).30She had long ago given the boys names.She had seen the newsreel so many times that she was very familiar with the boy's faces and had given a name to each of them quite some time ago.31…she whispered to herself, forming the words to make them solid.…she actually spoke out the words in a soft voice to herself.32She knew she loves Chris that much because of her pent-up love and terror for Jerry.For a long time, she repressed her love and terror for Jerry and closely confined them to herself. Now she expressed those feelings by way of showing love to Chris.33She remembered faster than lightning many a cold remedy…She very quickly remembered may remedies for curing colds.34He grimaced with his mouth and the hand with the ring was lifted to catch the twitching, trying to hold it.His mouth twisted giving a painful expression and he lifted his hand to catch the uncotrollable jerking of the muscle, trying to stop it.35…and his mother drowned in those vacant eyes.…absorbed in those blank, expressionless eyes, the mother was overwhelmed by grief and fainted away.36She wanted to drive her car, in motion and tension to find rest.She wanted to drive her car to keep herself in motion and tension so that she could forget her worries and grief.37…sat on the curb with his knees doubled over into the gutter.…The idiot sat on the curb with his knees bent over into the gutter.The curb is the edge of the sidewalk along a street.The gutter is a channel at the side of a street for carrying off surface water.38But all the same it did come to the boy who might be Jerry.Nevertheless the film came to show the young man who might be Jerry.all the same: nevertheless 然而，仍然He is not very reliable, but I like him all the same.Thank you all the same.39With her eyes riveted on him she could still see Chris in the back.With her eyes staring at the young man who might be Jerry, she could still see Chris behind the young man.rivet on: fix one's eyes on 凝视Mary riveted her eyes on the scene.。

The new ruling class had built a cultural barrier against him by building their French against his own language.☞The new ruling class had caused the cultural contradictions between the ruling class and native English by regarding French superior to English.3.English had come royally into its own.☞English had gained recognition by the King．Lesson21.The burying--ground is merely a huge waste of hummocky earth, like a derelict building-lot.☞The burying-ground is just a huge piece of wasteland full of mounds of earth, looking like a deserted construction land2. They rise out of the earth, they sweat and starve for a few years, and then they sink back into the nameless mounds of the graveyard.They are born. Then they work hard without enough food for a few years. Finally they die and are buried in the hills graves without any mark to identify them. Lesson31. We dare not tempt them with weakness☞We dare not be weak because it might tempt the enemy to take rash actions.2.We pledge… is right☞We will help them only if they also do their bit. Kennedy wants people to believe that the United States renders unselfish and disinterested aid to countries that need it.3.This much we pledge--and more.This much we promise to do and we promise to do more.Lesson51.

No longer so looked up to or copied, New York even prides itself on being a holdout from prevailing American trends☞Since New York is no longer looked up to or copied as the undisputed fashion authority, it now boasts that it is a city that resists the prevailing trends (styles, fashion) of America, that it is a place where people can escape from uniformity and commonness.3.To win in New York is to be uneasy; to lose is to live in jostling proximity to the frustrated majority.☞A person who wins in New York is constantly disturbed by fear and anxiety (because he is afraid of losing what he has won in the fierce competition); a person who loses has to live among the defeated, who are in the majority in New York.4.

The English one uses is no longer absolutely correct.Lesson21.I am not... to a factUnderstatementIt is true that Orwell has been pointing out facts.

Detailed Analysis of the TextQ: Instead of telling the reader that the natives are poor, Orwell shows poverty in at least five ways. Identify them.A: Here are five things he describes to show poverty: (a) the burial of the poor inhabitants(b)an Arab Navvy, an employee of the municipality, begging for a piece of bread (c)the miserable lives of the Jews in the ghettoes; (d)cultivation of the poor soil; (e) the old women carrying fire wood.Scene 1(Para 1-3): The burial of the poor inhabitants Life is cheap. People are so poor that they can not afford proper burials. Para 1:What do you think of the author‘s choice of the scene and the words in Para. 1? What can we learn?The author‘s choice of a dramatic scene and the simple words implies much more than what appears on the surface. We can see poverty of the place and unsanitary condition of the city 1) dirty 2) poorHow are people buried in Marrakech?Through a few strokes of his master-pen---mourners wailing a chant, corpses wrapped in a piece of rag, carried on a rough wooden bier, friends hacking a shallow hole, dumping the body in it, flinging some dried-up earth over it, no grave stone …The fact shows the human life has no value at all.Crowd It suggests 1) the lack of order2) people are not terribly concerned about the funeral.Differentiation of Synonymswail, cry, weep, sob, whimper, moanCry implies the expression of grief, sorrow, pain or distress by making mournful, convulsive sounds and shedding tears.Weep more specifically stresses the shedding of tears.Sob is to weep aloud with a catch in the voice and short gasping breaths.Wail implies the uttering of loud, prolonged mournful cries in unsuppressed lamentation.Whimper is to cry with subdued, whining, broken sounds, as a fearful or frightened child does.Moan suggests the expression of sorrow or pain in a low, prolonged, mournful sound or sounds.Ex: wail, cry, weep, sob, whimper, moan(1) The baby ____ loudly when he had emptied his bottle.(2) The little dog __ __ when I tried to bathe it.(3) He _ ___ as though he was dying every time.(4) She is _ ___ the death of her dog.(5) The patient _ ___ and then fell asleep. (6) The little girl is _ ___ in the corner.When the friends get to the burying-ground they hack an oblong hole a foot and two deep, dump the body in it and fling over it a little of the dried-up, lumpy earth, which is like the broken brick.The list of action verbs are all single-syllabic, showing the quick speed and simple burying procedure, and also indicates the unceremonious way in which a funeral is carried out. In a poor country like Morocco, life is cheap.朋友们到了安葬场后，便在地上挖出一个一二英尺深的长方形坑，将尸体往坑里一倒，再扔一些像碎砖头一样的干土块。
