The lower your position is, the more people you are afraid of. And all the people are afraid of the twelve men at the top who helped found and build the company and now own and direct it.我工作的公司里，每个人都至少害怕一个人。
职位越低，所惧怕的人越多。
所有的人都害怕那十二位顶层上司，他们帮助创建了这个公司，而且现在仍然大权在握。
All these twelve men are elderly now and drained by time and success of energy and ambition. Many have spent their whole lives here. They seem friendly, slow, and content when I come upon them in the halls and always courteous and mute when they ride with others in the public elevators. They no longer work hard. They hold meetings, make promotions, and allow their names to be used on announcements that are prepared and issued by somebody else. Nobody is sure anymore who really runs the company (not even the people who are credited with running it), but the company does run. (横线句子翻译)所有这十二位都已经上了年纪，而且岁月的沧桑和对成功的执著追求使他们心力交瘁。

Section 3: Detailed Reading
2 Today the combat takes a different shape; instead of wishing to put man in a prison, woman endeavors to escape from one; she no longer seeks to drag him into the realms of immanence but to emerge, herself, into the light of transcendence. Now the attitude of the males creates a new conflict: it is with a bad grace that the man lets her go. He is very well pleased to remain the sovereign subject, the absolute superior, the essential being; he refuses to accept his companion as an equal in any concrete way. She replies to his lack of confidence in her by assuming an aggressive attitude.
In Paragraphs 1-2, the author introduces the changes in the history of feministic movement, reaching the conclusion that the reason why it has failed to reach a more meaningful result lies in the weak point of its mentality.

L 3Pub Talk and the King’s EnglishAbout the Title1) What is King's English?The King’s English---this term is generally regarded by most people as referring to standard /correct English as to grammar and pronunciation. i.e. good English which everyone should try to imitate. When the ruling monarch (['mɔnək]) is a queen, it is called “the Queen’s English”.2) How do you think of the title?The title of this piece is not very aptly chosen. It misleads the readers into thinking that the writer is going to demonstrate some intrinsic (本质的，内在的) or linguistic relationship between pub talk and the kings’English. Whereas the writer, in reality, is just discussing on what makes good conversation. He feels that bar conversation in the pub has a charm of its own.A better title would be “The Art of Good Conversation” or “The Charms of Conversation”.1. Conversation is the most … human activities:More than any other human activities, conversation helps to promote an agreeable, pleasant and informal relationship among people.2. And it is an activity only of humans: And conversation is an activity which is found only among human beings. (Animals and birds are not capable of conversation.)3. However i ntricate …name of conversation: No matter how complicated the manner in which animals make known their intentions to each other, they do not go in for any activity which might rightly be called conversation.4. The charm of conversation … or just glow:Conversation does not need a special topic to start a conversation. Anything may start a good conversation. And once started no one knows how or where it will end. That’s why conversation is delightful and charming.(Here a mixed metaphor is used)*meanders or leaps: (like a stream) flow placidly and aimlessly or flow swiftly and joyously onwards*sparkles or just glows: (like fire) to burn steadily without flame or to burn brightly throwing off sparks5. The enemy good conversation… sth to say: Good conversation is generally spoilt by people who think they have a lot of important things to say.6. Conversation is not for making a point: Conversation is not for persuading others to accept our ideas or point of view.7. There is no winning in conversation: In a conversation one doesn’t try to prove oneself right and the others wrong. We may argue but we needn’t try to convince others that they are wrong and we are right.8. In fact, the best conversationalists…to lose:In fact, a person who really enjoys and is skilled at conversation will not argue to win or force others to accept his point of views.9. They are ready to let it go: They are ready to give up the opportunity to tell one of their best anecdotes because the conversation has moved on to other subjects.10. Per haps it is because … of its own: Perhaps it is because I have spent so much of my time in English pubs that I think bar conversation has a special charm.11. Bar friends are not… other’s lives: People who meet each other for a drink in the bar of a pub are not intimate friends for they are not deeply absorbed in each other’s lives.12.The fact that their marriages… not a concern: It is not a matter of interest or importance if their marriages are breaking up, or their love affairs have been broken or they are just in a bad temper or grouchy (不高兴的) for the day.*on the rock: to be in a condition of ruin [metaphor] comparing a marriage to a ship wretched on the rocks*get up on the wrong side of the bed: (idiomatic expression) be in a bad temper for the day13. They are like musketeers … and feelings:Bar friends, like the three musketeers in Dumas’ novel, do not probe into each other’s lives nor do they try to find out the inmost thoughts and feelings of their drinking companions. *musketeers:[allusion] from Dumas the senior14. the conversation move desultorily… there was a focus: The conversation moved along aimlessly without a focal subject. They talked about the most common things and also made some remarks about the planet Jupiter. Then suddenly a magical transformation took place and there was a focal subject to talk about.15. The glow of the conversation burst into flames: The conversation became spirited (生机勃勃的) and exciting.[metaphor] Conversation is compared to a fire.16. That would settle it:By looking up reference books one could settle the right or wrong of an argument.17. it could still go ignorantly on：The conversation could go on without anyone knowing who was right or wrong.18. It was an Australian who…descendants of convicts:When the speaker explained that the definition was given to her by an Australian, her listeners immediately made some sharp replies, saying it was not surprising to hear Australians talk such nonsense because they were descendents of convicts. (descendents of convicts: implying that the Australians are crude, uneducated people.)19. We had traveled in five minutes to Australia:Though they were in an English pub, they were soon talking about Australia and the Australians. (在五分钟内，大家便像到澳大利亚游览了一趟。

Unit 1 Pub Talk and the King’s English 人类的一切活动中，只有闲谈最宜于增进友情，而且是人类特有的一种活动。
动物之间的信息沟通，不论其方式何等困难，也是称不上交谈的。
闲谈的引人人胜之处就在于它没有一个事先定好的话题。
它时而迂回流淌，时而奔腾起伏，时而火花四射，时而热忱洋溢，话题最终会扯到什么地方去谁也拿不准。
要是有人觉得“有些话要说”，那定会大煞风景，使闲聊无趣。
闲聊不是为了进行争辩。
闲聊中常常会有争辩，不过其目的并不是为了劝服对方。
闲聊之中是不存在什么输赢输赢的。
事实上，真正擅长闲聊的人往往是随时打算让步的。
或许他们偶然间会觉得该把自己最得意的奇闻轶事选出一件插进来讲一讲，但一转瞬大家已谈到别处去了，插话的机会随之而失，他们也就听之任之。
或许是由于我从小混迹于英国小酒馆的原因吧，我觉得酒瞎里的闲聊别有韵味。
酒馆里的挚友对别人的生活毫无了解，他们只是临时凑到一起来的，彼此并无深交。
他们之中或许有人面临婚因裂开，或恋爱失败，或遇到别的什么不顺心的事儿，但别人根本不管这些。
他们就像大仲马笔下的三个火枪手一样，虽然日夕相处，却从不过问彼此的私事，也不去揣摸别人内心的隐私。
有一天晚上的情形正是这样。
人们正漫无边际地东扯西拉，从最一般的凡人俗事谈到有关木星的科学趣闻。
谈了半天也没有一个中心话题，事实上也不须要有一个中心话题。
可突然间大伙儿的话题都集中到了一处，中心话题奇迹般地出现了。
我记不起她那句话是在什么状况下说出来的——她明显不是预先想好把那句话带到酒馆里来说的，那也不是什么非说不行的要紧话——我只知道她那句话是随着大伙儿的话题特别自然地脱口而出的。
“几天前，我听到一个人说‘标准英语’这个词语是带贬义的指责用语，指的是人们应当尽量避开运用的英语。
”此语一出，谈话马上热情起来。
有人赞成，也有人怒斥，还有人则不以为然。
最终，当然少不了要像处理全部这种场合下的看法分歧一样，由大家说定次日一早去查证一下。

高级英语2第二册第三版张汉熙期末复习资料
Ⅰ.Paraphrase(3`×5=15`)1.Unit51.The slighted mention of the decade brings nostalgic recollections to the middle-aged...At the very mention of this postwar period ,middle-aged people begin to think about it longingly.2.The rejection of Victorian gentility was , in any case ,inevitable .In any case,an American could not avoid casting aside middle-class respectability and affected refinement.3.The war acted merely as a catalytic agent in this breakdown of the Victorian social structure...The war only helped to speed up the breakdown of the Victorian social structure.4...it was tempted ,in America at least, to escape its responsibilities and retreat behind an air of naughty alcoholic sophistication...In America at least,the young people were strongly inclined to shirk their responsibilities. They pretended to be worldly-wise, drinking and behaving naughtily.5.Prohibition afforded the young the additional opportunity of making their pleasures illicit...The young found greater pleasure in drinking because Prohibition, by making drinking unlawful,added a sense of adventure.6...our young men began to enlist under foreign flags.Our young men joined the armies of foreign countries to fight in the war.7....they “wanted to get into the fun before the whole thing turned belly up.”The young wanted to take part in the glorious adventure before the whole ended.8...they had outgrown towns and families...These young people could no longer adapt themselves to lives in their hometowns or their families.9..the returning veteran also had to face the sodden,Napoleonic cynicism of Versailles,the hypocriticaldo-goodism of Prohibition...The returning veteran also had to face the stupid cynicism of the victorious allies in Versailles who acted as cynically as Napoleon did,and to face Prohibition which the lawmakers hypocritically assumed would do good to the people.10.Something in the tension-ridden youth of America had to “give”...(Under all this force and pressure)something in the youth of America,who were already very tense ,had to break down.11....it was only natural that hopeful young writers , their minds and pens inflamed against war, Babbittry, and “Puritanical” gentility, should flock to the traditional artistic center...It was only natural that hopeful young writers ,whose minds and writings were full of violent anger against war, Babbittry,and “Puritanical” gentility,should come in largen numbers to live in Greenwich Village, the traditional artistic center.12.Each town had its “fast”set which p rided itself on itself on its unconventionality...Each town was proud that it had a group of wild ,reckless people,who lived unconventional lives.2.Unit 31.we observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of freedom, symbolizing an end as well as a beginning, signifying renewal as well as change.What we celebrate today is not a victory of the Democratic Party over the Republican Party, but the freedom which all Americans enjoy, especially the freedom of people to elect their own head of state. It symbolizes the end of Eisenhower s presidential term and the beginning of Kennedy's presidential term. The presidency or the office of president is renewed but the president has changed (from Eisenhower to Kennedy).2. And yet the same revolutionary belief for which our forebears fought is still at issue around the globe, the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.Our ancestors fought a revolutionary war to maintain that all men were created equal and God had given them certain unalienable rights that no ruler or state could take away from them. But today this belief is still in dispute ina lot of countries all over the world.3.This much we pledge —and more.We promise to do this much, and we also promise to do more.3.Unit 61. Nowadays New York is out of phase with American tasteNowadays New York cannot understand nor follow the taste of the American people.2. New York even prides itself on being a holdout from prevailing American trendsNew York boasts that it is a city that resists the prevailing trends (styles, fashion)of America.3. sitcoms cloned and canned in Hollywood, and the Johnny Carson show live, pre-empt the airwaves from CaliforniaSituation comedies made in Hollywood and the actual performance of Johnny Carson now replace the scheduled radio and TV programs for California.4. it is making something of a comeback as a tourist attractionNew York is regaining somewhat its status as a city that attracts tourists.5. To win in New York is to be uneasyA 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).6. Nature’s pleasures are much qualified in New York.The chance to enjoy the pleasures of nature is very limited.7. the city’s bright glow arrogantly obscures the heavensAt night the city of New York is aglow with lights and seems proudly and haughtily to darken the night sky.8. But the purity of a bohemian dedication can be exaggerated.But a pure and wholehearted devotion to a Bohemian life style can be exaggerated.9. In both these roles it ratifies more than it creates.In both these roles of banking and communications head-quarters, New York starts or originates very few things but gives its stamp of approval to many things created by people in other parts of the country.10. The television generation grew up in the insistent presence of hypeThe television generation was constantly and strongly influenced by extravagant promotional advertising.11. those who are writing ambitious novels sustain themselves on the magazinesAuthors writing long serious novels earn their living in the meantime by also writing articles for popular magazines.12. Broadway, which seemed to be succumbing to the tawdriness of its environment, is astir again Broadway, which seemed unable to resist the cheap, gaudy shows put on in the surrounding areas, is once again busy and active.13. he prefers the unhealthy hassle and the vitality of urban life(If you tell a New Yorker about the vigor of outdoor pleasures, he will reply that) he prefers the unhealthy turmoil and animated life of a city.14. The defeated are not hidden away somewhere else on the wrong side of town.Those who failed in the struggle of life, the down-and-outs, are not hidden away in slums or ghettoes where other people can’t see them.15. The place constantly exasperates, at times exhilarates.New York constantly irritates and annoys very much but at times it also invigorates and stimulates.4.Unit 151.Science is committed to the universal.Science is engaged in the task of making its basic concepts understood and accepted by scientists all over the world.2.A sign of this is that the more successful a science becomes, the broader the agreement about its basic concepts: there is not a separate Chinese or American or Soviet thermodynamics, for example; there is simply thermodynamics.A sign of this is that as science becomes successful, more and more people accept its basic concepts. The fact that science transcends national boundaries proves the universality of science.3.Today Lysenko's theory is discredited, and there is now only one genetics.Today Lysenko's theory is proved unscientific and people stop believing it, so there is now only one genetics.4. As the corollary of science technology also exhibits the universalizing tendency.As the natural result of science, technology also shows the universalizing tendency.5. This is why the spread of technology makes the world look ever more homogeneous.This is why the spread of technology with its universalizing tendency makes different countries and people look more similar or identical.6.Children who grow up in this world therefore experience it as a sameness rather than a diversity, and because their identities are shaped by this sameness, their sense of differences among cultures and individuals diminishes.Children growing up in this world feel that countries and people are more or less the same. Because their thoughts and feelings are influenced by this sameness, their sense of differences among cultures and people becomes weak.7. The result is described precisely in a phrase that is already familiar: the disappearance of history.The result of universalizing tendency of science and technology can be described in a phrase that we are already familiar with: the disappearance of history, to be exact, the disappearance of the visible evidence of history.8.If man creates machines, machines in turn shape their creators.Man invents and develops machines, and as a result machines change those who created them9. No longer quite an individual, no longer quite the product of a unique geography and culture, he moves from one climate-controlled shopping mall to another, from one airport to the next from one Holiday Inn to its successor three hundred miles down the road; but somehow his location never changes.The modern man is not an individual any longer. He is no longer a person with distinct traits shaped by a special environment and culture. Wherever he goes, he finds himself in the similar surroundings - the shops are in the same climate with their similar air-conditioning systems, the airports have the similar facilities and the hotels offer the similar amenities.10. He is cosmopolitan.He is universalized.11. The price he pays is that he no longer has a home in the traditional sense of the word.The disadvantage of being a cosmopolitan is that he loses a home in the old sense of the word.12. The benefit is that he begins to suspect home in the traditional sense is another name for limitations, and that home in the modern sense Is everywhere and always surrounded by neighbors.The advantage of being a cosmopolitan is that he begins to think that the old kind of home probably restricts his development and activities, while home in the modern sense is everywhere and he has neighbors all over the world.13. Science has shown the insubstantiality of the world.Science has shown that the world is not made up of solid material objects that we see with our naked eyes.14. It has thus undermined an article of faith: the thingliness of things.In the past, people firmly believed that the things they saw around them were real solid substances, but now science has cast doubt on this belief.15. At the same time, it has produced images of orders of reality underlying the thingliness of things.At the same time, science has produced images of many classes or categories of reality that lie beneath the objective, concrete and tangible images of things in the world that people see with their naked eyes.16 Are images of self-squared dragons more or less real than images of molecules?Self-squared dragons are created by science and they are pure artifacts. So are images of self-squared dragons more or less real than images of molecules?5.Unit21.The burying-ground is merely a huge waste of hummocky earth, like a derelict building-lot.The buring-ground is nothing more than a huge piece of wasteland full of mounds of earth looking like a deserted and abandoned piece of land on which a building was going to be put up.2. All colonial empires are in reality founded upon that fact.All the imperialists build up their empires by treating the people in the colonies like animals (by not treating the people in the colonies as human beings).3. 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 for a few years they work, toil and starve. Finally they die and are buried in graves without a name.4. A carpenter sits cross-legged at a prehistoric lathe, turning chair-legs at lightning speed.Sitting with his legs crossed and using a very old-fashioned lathe, a carpenter quickly gives a round shape to the chair-legs he is making.5. Instantly, from the dark holes all round, there was a frenzied rush of Jews .Immediately from their dark hole-like cells everywhere a great number of Jews rushed out wildly excited.6. every one of them looks on a cigarette as a more or less impossible luxuryEvery one of these poor Jews looked on the cigarette as a piece of luxury which they could not possibly afford. 7. Still, a white skin is always fairly conspicuous.However, a white-skinned European is always quite noticeable.8. In a tropical landscape one's eye takes in everything except the human beings.If you take a look at the natural scenery in a tropical region, you see everything but the human beings.9. No one would think of running cheap trips to the Distressed Areas.No one would think of organizing cheap trips for the tourists to visit the poor slum areas10. for nine-tenths of the people the reality of life is an endless, backbreaking struggle to wring a little food out of an eroded soil.Life is very hard for ninety percent of the people．With hard backbreaking toil they can produce a little food on the poor soil．11. She accepted her status as an old woman, that is to say as a beast of burden.She took it for granted that as an old woman she was the lowest in the community，that。

The little crowd of mourners –all men and boys, no women –threaded their way across the market place between the piles of pomegranates and the taxis and the camels, wailing a short chant over and over again. What really appeals to the files 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.一支人数不多的送葬队伍——其中老少尽皆男性，没有一个女的——沿着集贸市场，从一堆堆石榴摊子以及出租汽车和骆驼中间挤道而行，一边走着一边悲痛地重复着一支短促的哀歌。

Put the answers in the following two forms.（10*2’=20’）Lesson one Pub Talk and the King’s English1.And it is an activity only of humans.And conversation is an activity which is found only among human beings.2.Conversation is not for making a point.Conversation is not for persuading others to accept our idea or point of view.In a conversation we should not try to establish the force of an idea or argument.3.In fact,the best conversationalists are those who are prepared to lose.In fact a person who really enjoys and is skilled at conversation will not argue to win or force others to accept his point of view.4.Bar friends are not deeply involved in each other’s lives.People who meet each other for a drink in the bar of a pub are not intimate friends for they are not deeply absorbed or engrossed in each other’s lives.5….it could still go ignorantly on.The conversation could go on without anybody knowing who was right or wrong.6.They are cattle in the fields,but we sit down to beef(boeuf).These animals are called cattle when they are alive and feeding in the fields;but when we sit down at the table to eat,we call their meat beef.7.The new ruling class had built a cultural barrier against him by building their French against his own language.The new ruling class by using French instead of English made it difficult for the English to accept or absorb the culture of the rulers.8….English had come royally into its own.The English language received proper recognition and was used by the king once more.9.The phrase has always been used a little pejoratively and even facetiously by the lower classes. The phrase,the King’s English,has always been used disparagingly and jokingly by the lower classes.The working people very often make fun of the proper and formal language of the educated people.10.The rebellion against a cultural dominance is still there.There still exists in the working people,as in the early Saxon peasants,a spirit of opposition to the cultural authority of the ruling class.11.There is always a great danger,as Carlyle put it,that”words will harden into things for us.”There is always a great danger that we might forget that words are only symbols and take them for things they are supposed to represent.1….their marriage may be on the rocks…On the rocks:(colloquial) in or into a condition of ruin or catastrophe.2….they got out of bed on the wrong side…Get out of bed on the wrong side:to be cross or in a bad temper for the day.3.The conversation was on wings.On wings (on the wing): flying or while flying;in motion or while moving or traveling.4….the Norman lords of course turned up their noses at it.Turn up one’s nose at:sneer at,scorn.5…we ought to think ourselves back into the shoes of the Saxon peasant.In another’s shoes: in another’s position.6….English had come royally into its own.Come into its own:to receive what properly belongs to one,especially acclaim or recognition.7….we sit up at the vividness of the phrase…Sit up at:(colloquial) to become suddenly alert.1.However intricate the ways in which animals communicate with each other,they do not indulge in anything that deserves the name of conversation.动物之间的信息交流，不论其方式何等复杂，也称不上谈话。
2.Argument may often be a part of it,but the purpose of the argument is not to convince.There is no winning in conversation.闲聊中常有争论，不过其目的并不是为了说服对方。
闲聊之中不存在输赢胜负。
3.Perhaps it is because of my upbringing in English pubs that I think bar conversation has a charm of its own.或许是由于我年轻时常常光顾英国小酒馆的缘故，我觉得酒馆里的闲聊别有一番韵味。
4.I do not remember what made one of our companions say it—she clearly had not come into the bar to say it,it was not something that was pressing on her mind—but her remark fell quitenaturally into the talk.我不记得一起聊天的人是在什么情况下说出那句话来的——显然她不是有备而来，那也不是什么非说不可的要紧话——但是她那句话十分自然地融进了我们的闲谈里。
5.There is always resistance in the lower classes to any attempt by an upper class to lay down rules for “English as it should be spoken.”每当上流社会想给“规英语”制定一些条条框框时，总会遭到来自下层人民的抵制。
