1.The dinner partyI first heard this tale in India, where is told as if true -- though any naturalist would know it couldn't be. Later someone told me that the story appeared in a magazine shortly before the First World War. That magazine story, and the person who wrote it, I have never been able to track down.The country is India. A colonial official and his wife are giving a large dinner party. They are seated with their guests -- officers and their wives, and a visiting American naturalist -- in their spacious dining room, which has a bare marble floor, open rafters and wide glass doors opening onto a veranda.A spirited discussion springs up between a young girl who says that women have outgrown the jumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouse era and a major who says that they haven't."A woman's reaction in any crisis," the major says, "is to scream. And while a man may feel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has. And that last ounce is what really counts."The American does not join in the argument but watches the other guests. As he looks, he sees a strange expression come over the face of the hostess. She is staring straight ahead, her muscles contracting slightly. She motions to the native boy standing behind her chair and whispers something to him. The boy's eyes widen: he quickly leaves the room.Of the guests, none except the American notices this or sees the boy place a bowl of milk on the veranda just outside the open doors.The American comes to with a start. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing -- bait for a snake. He realizes there must be a cobra in the room. He looks up at the rafters -- the likeliest place -- but they are bare. Three corners of the room are empty, and in the fourth the servants are waiting to serve the next course. There is only one place left -- under the table.His first impulse is to jump back and warn the others, but he knows the commotion would frighten the cobra into striking. He speaks quickly, the tone of his voice so commanding that it silences everyone."I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will count three hundred -- that's five minutes -- and not one of you is to move a muscle. Those who move will forfeit 50 rupees. Ready?"The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying "...two hundred and eighty..." when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the cobra emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Screams ring out as he jumps to slam the veranda doors safely shut."You were right, Major!" the host exclaims. "A man has just shown us an example of perfect self-control.""Just a minute," the American says, turning to his hostess. "Mrs. Wynnes, how did you know that cobra was in the room?"A faint smile lights up the woman's face as she replies: "Because it was crawling across my foot."UNIT 2-1一场关于男人是否比女人勇敢的激烈的讨论以一个意外的方式。

现代大学英语精读2Unit3theriteofspring译文
现代大学英语精读2 Unit3the rite of spring春之祭说真的,我从来都不明白,我们到底为什么要有一个菜园子,为什么36年前,当我第一次在乡下买了房子以后,我会别的事情都不做,首先就挖一块菜地。
现在想想买一堆胡萝卜或者甜菜头,相对来说那么容易,而且又那么便宜,为什么还要自己去种呢?尤其是那些块根植物,自己种的和店里买的,根本就很难分辨。
这里肯定有人的本性在起作用。
人就喜欢脱离现实,毫无意义地瞎折腾。
再说,我又并非特别喜欢吃蔬菜,我宁可吃些油汪汪、香喷喷、一咬一口肉汁的东西,比如说热狗。
要说,如果能在窗外种热狗的话,那倒真的有了一种可以毫不犹豫为自己辩护的理由了。
可是,在现在这种情况下,我无法否认,每当4月来临,我就会发现自己走出家门,倚着院子外的篱笆,望着那块倒霉的地,十分理智地下定决心再也不去种它了。
然而,总有那么一天,当我早晨醒来的时候,一股香味似乎从窗外飘进来,就好像来自地球中心的泥土的清香味。
这时,太阳似乎也突然认真起来,它投射到地毯上的光似乎比往常要更加深黄。
那些鸟开始歇斯底里地鸣叫,心里和我一样,想着那些美味可口的虫子正从那融化的土中慢慢爬出来。
让我回去看那块地的并不只是快乐,而是矛盾和斗争。
每年碰到的问题是一样的:今年我们该使用什么方法?前几年,我们在一行行的蔬菜之间放上了36英寸宽的黑塑料薄膜。
效果极好,干旱的时候能够保湿,而且保证没有杂草。
但是黑塑料薄膜一看就是来自工厂的东西,一点浪漫的情调都没有。
所以我就逐步改用干草作覆盖料。
我们收割了不少干草,草一腐烂,的确能改善土壤的结构。
再说,看起来很舒服,而且又不花一分钱。
家里有个菜园子能是你感觉到我们这个小小星球的表面有多娇嫩、多丰饶、多容易被毁坏。
大学英语精读第二册Unit3:LessonfromJefferson
Jefferson died long ago, but may of his ideas still of great interest to us.Lessons from JeffersonThomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States, may be less famous than George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, but most people remember at last one fact about him: he wrote the Declaration of Independence.Although Jefferson lived more than 200 years ago, there is much that we learn from him today. Many of his ideas are especially interesting to modern youth. Here are some of the things he said and wrote:Go and see. Jefferson believed that a free man obtains knowledge from many sources besides books and that personal investigation is important. When still a young man, he was appointed to a committee to find out whether the South Branch of the James River was deep enough to be used by large boats. While the other members of the committee sat in the state capitol and studied papers on the subject, Jefferson got into a canoe and made on-the-spot-observations.You can learn from everyone. By birth and by education Jefferson belonged to the highest social class. Yet, in a day when few noble persons ever spoke to those of humble origins except to give an order, Jefferson went out of his way to talk with gardeners, servants, and waiters. Jefferson once said to the French nobleman, Lafayette, "You must go into the people's homes as I have done, look into their cooking pots and eat their bread. If you will only do this, you may find out why people are dissatisfied and understand the revolution that is threatening France."Judge for yourself. Jefferson refused to accept other people's opinions without careful thought. "Neither believe nor reject anything," he wrote to his nephew, "because any other person has rejected or believed it. Heaved has given you a mind for judging truth and error. Use it."Jefferson felt that the people "may safely be trusted to hear everything true and false, and to form a correct judgment. Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter."Do what you believe is right. In a free country there will always be conflicting ideas, and this is a source of strength. It is conflict and not unquestioning agreement that keeps freedom alive. Though Jefferson was for many years the object of strong criticism, he never answered his critics. He expressed his philosophy in letters to a friend, "There are two sides to every question. If you take one side with decision and on it with effect, those who take the other side will of course resent your actions."Trust the future; trust the young. Jefferson felt that the present should never be chained to customs which have lost their usefulness. "No society," he said, "can make a perpetual constitution, or even a perpetual law. The earth belongs to the living generation." He did not fear new ideas, nor did he fear the future. "How much pain," he remarked, "has been caused by evils which have never happened! I expect the best, not the worst. I steer my ship with hope, leaving fear behind."Jefferson's courage and idealism were based on knowledge. He probably knew more than any other man of his age. He was an expert in agriculture, archeology, and medicine. He practiced crop rotation and soil conservation a century before these became standard practice, and he invented a plow superior to any other in existence. He influenced architecture throughout America, and he was constantly producing devices for making the tasks of ordinary life easier to perform.Of all Jefferson's many talents, one is central. He was above all a good and tireless writer. His complete works, now being published for the first time, will fill more than fifty volumes. His talent as an author was soon discovered, and when the time came to write the Declaration of Independence at Philadelphia in 1776, the task of writing it was his. Millions have thrilled to his words: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…"When Jefferson died on July 4, 1826, the 50th anniversary of American independence, he left his countrymen a rich legacy of ideas and examples. American education owes a great debt to Thomas Jefferson, Who believed that only a nation of educated people could remain free.NEW WORDSdeclarationn. document containing an open public announcement 宣⾔independencen. freedom from the control of others 独⽴obtainvt. get through effort 获得sourcen. place from which sth. comes; place where a river starts (来)源;源头personala. done in person; belonging to a person 亲⾃的;个⼈的investigationn. detailed or careful examination 调查investigatevt.appointvt. put (sb.) in a position 任命appointmentn.committeen. a group of people chosen for special duties 委员会capitoln.

现代大学英语精读2 UNIT3 THE RITE OF SPRING译文
现代大学英语精读2Unit3the rite of spring春之祭说真的,我从来都不明白,我们到底为什么要有一个菜园子,为什么36年前,当我第一次在乡下买了房子以后,我会别的事情都不做,首先就挖一块菜地。
现在想想买一堆胡萝卜或者甜菜头,相对来说那么容易,而且又那么便宜,为什么还要自己去种呢?尤其是那些块根植物,自己种的和店里买的,根本就很难分辨。
这里肯定有人的本性在起作用。
人就喜欢脱离现实,毫无意义地瞎折腾。
再说,我又并非特别喜欢吃蔬菜,我宁可吃些油汪汪、香喷喷、一咬一口肉汁的东西,比如说热狗。
要说,如果能在窗外种热狗的话,那倒真的有了一种可以毫不犹豫为自己辩护的理由了。
可是,在现在这种情况下,我无法否认,每当4月来临,我就会发现自己走出家门,倚着院子外的篱笆,望着那块倒霉的地,十分理智地下定决心再也不去种它了。
然而,总有那么一天,当我早晨醒来的时候,一股香味似乎从窗外飘进来,就好像来自地球中心的泥土的清香味。
这时,太阳似乎也突然认真起来,它投射到地毯上的光似乎比往常要更加深黄。
那些鸟开始歇斯底里地鸣叫,心里和我一样,想着那些美味可口的虫子正从那融化的土中慢慢爬出来。
让我回去看那块地的并不只是快乐,而是矛盾和斗争。
每年碰到的问题是一样的:今年我们该使用什么方法?前几年,我们在一行行的蔬菜之间放上了36英寸宽的黑塑料薄膜。
效果极好,干旱的时候能够保湿,而且保证没有杂草。
但是黑塑料薄膜一看就是来自工厂的东西,一点浪漫的情调都没有。
所以我就逐步改用干草作覆盖料。
我们收割了不少干草,草一腐烂,的确能改善土壤的结构。
再说,看起来很舒服,而且又不花一分钱。
家里有个菜园子能是你感觉到我们这个小小星球的表面有多娇嫩、多丰饶、多容易被毁坏。
在我们那块50英尺宽、70英尺长的土地上,肯定有十几种不同的土壤。
西红柿在某个地方长不好,但是在另一个地方却长得很好。
其他庄稼也一样。
我想,要是你在地里洒满化肥,这种差别就不会如此明显。

UNIT 3TEXT杰斐逊的遗训布鲁斯.布利文也许美国第三任总统托马斯. 杰斐逊不如乔治.华盛顿和亚伯拉罕.林肯那样著名,但大部分人至少能记住一件有关他的事实,即他写了《独立宣言》。
尽管杰斐逊生活的时代距今已经二百多年了,但我们今天仍能从他那里学到很多东西。
他的很多思想对今天的青年一代尤其具有吸引力。
以下是他曾说过和写过的言论:亲自观察。
杰斐逊认为,一个自由的人不仅能从书本上获得知识,还能从很多其他源泉获得知识,并且,个人亲自进行调查非常重要。
在他年青的时候,他被任命为一个委员会的成员,负责调查詹姆斯河南端支流的水深是否可以通行大型船只,在其它委员会成员坐在州议会大厦研究有关文献的时候,杰斐逊却乘上一只独木舟到现场实地观测去了。
您能从每个人身上学到知识。
论出身及所受的教育,杰斐逊均属于社会的最高阶层。
那个时代,出身高贵的人除了向穷人发号施令外,很少与其说话。
然而杰斐逊却想方设法找园艺工人,佣人及仆人交谈。
杰斐逊有一次跟法国贵族拉斐特说:“您应象我那样到老百姓家里去,看看他们的锅里有什么,亲口尝一尝他们吃的面包。
只要你这样做了,你就会明白老百姓为什么不满意,并且理解那声威协法国的革命。
”自己作出判断。
杰斐逊绝不在未经认真思考的情况下授受别人的意见。
“不能因为别人曾经或者相信过某件事情,你就去拒绝或者相信此事”,他在给侄儿的信中写道,“上帝赐给你一个判别正误的大脑,您应该利用它。
”杰斐逊感到人民“是完全可以信赖的,任何事情-无论真假都应该让他们听到。
让他们作出正确判断。
如果由我来决定,我们是应该有一个政府而不要报纸还是应该有报纸而不要政府,我将毫不犹豫地选择后者。
”做你认为对的事情。
自由国家里总是会存在对立的思想,这就是力量的源泉。
正是这种对立,而不是绝对的统一才使得自由得以存在。
尽管杰斐逊很多年来一直是被猛烈抨击的对象,他却从未予以反击。
他在给一位朋友的信中这样解释他的哲学思想:“任何问题都有两个方面。

1.The dinner partyI first heard this tale in India, where is told as if true -- though any naturalist would know it couldn't be. Later someone told me that the story appeared in a magazine shortly before the First World War. That magazine story, and the person who wrote it, I have never been able to track down.The country is India. A colonial official and his wife are giving a large dinner party. They are seated with their guests -- officers and their wives, and a visiting American naturalist -- in their spacious dining room, which has a bare marble floor, open rafters and wide glass doors opening onto a veranda.A spirited discussion springs up between a young girl who says that women have outgrown the jumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouse era and a major who says that they haven't."A woman's reaction in any crisis," the major says, "is to scream. And while a man may feel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has. And that last ounce is what really counts."The American does not join in the argument but watches the other guests. As he looks, he sees a strange expression come over the face of the hostess. She is staring straight ahead, her muscles contracting slightly. She motions to the native boy standing behind her chair and whispers something to him. The boy's eyes widen: he quickly leaves the room.Of the guests, none except the American notices this or sees the boy place a bowl of milk on the veranda just outside the open doors.The American comes to with a start. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing -- bait for a snake. He realizes there must be a cobra in the room. He looks up at the rafters -- the likeliest place -- but they are bare. Three corners of the room are empty, and in the fourth the servants are waiting to serve the next course. There is only one place left -- under the table.His first impulse is to jump back and warn the others, but he knows the commotion would frighten the cobra into striking. He speaks quickly, the tone of his voice so commanding that it silences everyone."I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will count three hundred -- that's five minutes -- and not one of you is to move a muscle. Those who move will forfeit 50 rupees. Ready?"The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying "...two hundred and eighty..." when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the cobra emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Screams ring out as he jumps to slam the veranda doors safely shut."You were right, Major!" the host exclaims. "A man has just shown us an example of perfect self-control.""Just a minute," the American says, turning to his hostess. "Mrs. Wynnes, how did you know that cobra was in the room?"A faint smile lights up the woman's face as she replies: "Because it was crawling across my foot." UNIT 2-1一场关于男人是否比女人勇敢的激烈的讨论以一个意外的方式。

我怯生生地问:“我的薪水是多少?”“每周十二磅外加中饭。”还没等我来得及提出异议,他已经站了起来。“好了,”他说,“你最好见见我的妻子。她才是这所学校真正的主管人。”
This was the last straw. I was very young: the prospect of working under a woman constituted the ultimate indignity.
然而,三天之后,却来了一封信,叫我到克洛伊登去面试。这一路去那儿原来还真麻烦:先乘火车到克洛伊登车站,再乘十分钟的公共汽车,然后还要至少步行四分之一英里。结果,我在六月一个炎热的上午到了那儿,因为心情非常沮丧,竟不感到紧张了。
The school was a red brick house with big windows. The front garden was a gravel square; four evergreen shrubs stood at each corner, where they struggled to survive the dust and fumes from a busy main road.
My First Job Robert Best
我的第一份工作 罗伯特·贝斯特
While I was waiting to enter university, I saw advertised in a local newspaper a teaching post at a school in a suburb of London about ten miles from where I lived. Being very short of money and wanting to do something useful, I applied, fearing as I did so, that without a degree and with no experience in teaching my chances of getting the job were slim.
在我等着进大学期间,我在一份地方报纸上看到一则广告,说是在离我住处大约十英里的伦敦某郊区,有所学校要招聘一名教师。我因为手头很拮据,同时也想做点有用的事,于是便提出了申请,但在提出申请的同时我也担心,自己一无学位,二无教学经验,得到这份工作的可能性是微乎其微的。
However, three days later a letter arrived, asking me to go to Croydon for an interview. It proved an awkward journey: a train to Croydon station; a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of at least a quarter of a mile. As a result I arrived on a hot June morning too depressed to feel nervous.
他说,学校只有一个班,二十四名男生,年龄从七岁到十三岁不等,除了美术课他亲自教以外,其余所有的课程都得由我来教。星期三和星期六的下午要到一英里以外的公园去踢足球,打板球。
close7RT The teaching set-up filled me with fear. I should have to divide the class into three groups and teach them in turn at three different levels; and I was dismayed at the thought of teaching algebra and geometry — two subjects at which I had been completely incompetent at school. Worse perhaps was the idea of Saturday afternoon cricket; most of my friends would be enjoying leisure at that time.
他带着一种吃惊的、不以为然的神态看着我,就像一位上校看着一名没系好靴带的二等兵一样。“哦,”他咕哝着说,“你最好到里面来。”那狭窄的、不见阳光的走廊里散发出一股腐烂的卷心菜味,闻上去很不舒服;墙上墨迹斑斑,显得很脏;周围一片静寂。根据地毯上的面包屑来判断,他的书房也是他的餐室。“你最好坐下,”他说,接着便问了我许多问题:为了得到普通学校证书我学过哪些课程;我多大岁数了;我会玩些什么游戏;问到这里他突然用他那双充满血丝的眼睛盯住我,问我是否认为游戏是儿童教育的一个极为重要的组成部分。我含含糊糊地说了些不必太重视游戏之类的话。他咕哝了几句。我说了错话。我和校长显然没有多少共同语言。
学校是一座装着大窗户的红砖房子。前庭园是个铺着沙砾的正方形:四个角上各有一丛冬青灌木,它们经受着从繁忙的大街上吹来的尘烟,挣扎着活下去。
It was clearly the headmaster himself that opened the door. He was short and fat. He had a sandy-coloured moustache, a wrinkled forehead and hardly any hair.
Trying to make some money before entering university, the author applies for a teaching job. But the interview goes from bad to worse ...
为了想在进大学前赚些钱,作者申请了一份教职。但面试情况却越来越糟……
整个教学计划把我吓坏了。我得把全班学生分成三个组,按三种不同的程度轮流给他们上课;想到要教代数和几何这两门我在读书时学得极差的科目,我感到很害怕。更糟糕的也许是星期六下午打板球的安排,因为这时候我的朋友大都会在悠闲地自得其乐。
I said shyly, "What would my salary be?" "Twelve pounds a week plus lunch." Before I could protest, he got to his feet. "Now", he said, "you'd better meet my wife. She's the one who really runs this school."
The school, he said, consisted of one class of twenty-four boys, ranging in age from seven to thirteen. I should have to teach all subjects except art, which he taught himself. Football and cricket were played in the Park, a mile away on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons.
开门的显然是校长本人。他又矮又胖,留着沙色的小胡子,前额上布满皱纹,头发差不多已经秃光。
He looked at me with an air of surprised disapproval, as a colonel might look at a private whose bootlaces were undone. "Ah yes," he grunted. "You'd better come inside." The narrow, sunless hall smelled unpleasantly of stale cabbage; the walls were dirty with ink marks; it was all silent. His study, judging by the crumbs on the carpet, was also his dining-room. "You'd better sit down," he said, and proceeded to ask me a number of questions: what subjects I had taken in my General School Certificate; how old I was; what games I played; then fixing me suddenly with his bloodshot eyes, he asked me whether I thought games were a vital part of a boy's education. I mumbled something about not attaching too much importance to them. He grunted. I had said the wrong thing. The headmaster and I obviously had very little in common.
我再也无法忍受了。我当时很年轻:在一个女人手下工作的前景构成了最大的侮辱。
