I do not think that could have made this reconciliation here.I don't think I could have accepted in America my Negro status without feeling ashamed.5...it is easier to cut across social and occupational lines there than it is here.It is easier in Europe for people of different social groups and occupations to intermingle and have social int ercourse.6. A man can be as proud of being a good waiter as of being a good actor, and in neither case feel thre atened.

I was born in New York, but have lived only in pockets of it.I was born in New York but have lived only in some small areas of the city.8. This reassessment, which can be very painful, is also very valuable.The reconsideration of the significance and importance of many things that one had taken for granted in the past can be very painful, though very valuable.9. On this acceptance, literally, the life of a writer depends.The life of a writer really depends on his accepting the fact that no matter where he goes or what he does he will always carry the marks of his origins.10. American writers do not have a fixed society to describe.American writers live in a mobile society where nothing is fixed, so they do not have a fixed society to descri be.11..Every society is really governed by hidden laws, by unspoken but profound assumptions on the part of the people.Every society is influenced and directed by hidden laws, and by many things deeply felt andtaken for granted by the people, though not openly spoken about.。

And if ca beachhead of co-operation may push back the jungle of suspicion…(para 19)6. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it, and the glow from that fire can truly light the world. (para 24)V. Translation (refer to the translation of the text)1. Kennedy thinks the world is different now because man has madegreat progress in science and technology and has not only the power (scientific farming, speedy transportation, mass production, etc. ) to abolish poverty, but also the power(missiles,H_bombs,etc.)to destroy all forms of human life.I agree with him.2.According to Kennedy,the belief still at issue around the globe is the belief that all man are created equal and God has given them certain inalienable rights which no state or ruler can take away from them.3.Kennedy considers as friends:a)the old allies of the U.S.,such as Britain,Canada,Australia,New Zealand and the western European countries;b) the countries in South America and;c)many of the developing countries in Asia and Africa that rely on U.S.aid.He considers all socialist countries as foes(all that time the socialist camp headed by the Soviet Union)and those developing countries preparing to take the socialist road.4.Britain,Canada,Australia,New Zealand.and in a wider sense one may also include France.5.Many new nations were born after World WarⅡ.especially in Africa.In 1 960 alone,just one year before Kennedy’s inaugural speech,the following countries in Africa declared their independence:The Republic of Central Africa,The Republic of Chad,The Republic of Dahomey,The People’s Republic of the Congo,The Jabon Republic,The Republic of Ghana.etc.6.The people who are in huts and villages are the poor people in backward developing countries in Africa and Asia.(Student give comments on the rest of the answer.)7.The stated policy of Kennedy towards Latin America is summed up in the phrase “alliance for progress”.Kennedy pledged to take concrete steps to assist these governments and people in casting off the chains of poverty.8.Kennedy’s policy towards “his adversary” is negotiation from a position of strength.The U.S.must first be strong enough to deter her adversary.From this strong position of absolute military superiority Kennedy proposes negotiating with the socialist camp(or the Soviet Union)on the following problems:a) arms control,b) cooperation in the fields of science,technology,arts and commerce,c)a new world system.9.He calls on his fellow Americans to make new sacrifices.to do what his country calls on him to do.He should be prepared to sacrifice everything,even his life if necessary,to defend freedom,to wage constant war against tyranny,poverty,disease and war.The “long twilight struggle” is not a hot war but a constant,persevering fight against tyranny,poverty,disease and the threat of war.10.There are probably some exaggeration in the claim that freedom was in its hour of maximum danger when Kennedy assumed office.However,it is historically justifiable that Kennedy assumed officeat a time when freedom was in a most critical hour.The new president had to face many dangers and crises.At home,freedom was endangered by the witch hunting campaign against government workers accused of being communists started by Senator McCarthy.So Kennedy made himself a strong supporter of civil rights.Ⅲ.1.The rhetorical devices/ figures of speech employed included:parallel and balanced structures,repetition of important words and phrases,and antitheses.2.Yes,the address is well organized.Kennedy addressed his old friends first with sweetest words and then his foes with sharp words.The order is clear and appropriate.3.In this highly rhetorical address,there are many examples to show that Kennedy is very particular and careful in his choice of and use of words as well as his choice of sentence patterns and structures. For example, in the sentence "To our sister republics south of our border, we offer a special pledge", the word "sister' is particularly chosen to connote equality and mutual good relations in his attempt to allay减轻;使平静the traditional fears these countries have of their powerful big brother in the north. And in the sentence "Finally, to those nations who would make themselves our adversary, we offer not a pledge but a request", the phrase"would make themselves our adversary" is again cleverly chosen to throw the blame for confrontation and world tension on the other party, It suggests that the United States has done nothing to create enemies. It is the other side that is challenging the U. S. , and the latter is forced to take the challenge although it really wants peace.4. Kennedy carefully made his tone and message suited to the different groups he addresses. In his address there is proclaimed loyalty to old allies to sustain unity, assured help and support to minor friends to keep them closely tied to the U. S. , warning advice to newborns to make them over, and veiled threat, warning and advice to the enemy camp to check ambitions on the part of the enemies.5. Among the passages most likely to be quoted: may be "we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty", as this is not only a carefully thought out, well-balanced sentence easy to remember and elegantly pleasant to read aloud, but also a sentence that best expresses the proud feelings of the Americans as the self-appointed leader of the "free democracies ". Kennedy's call for Americans to "ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country" is also very often quoted because it represents the enterprising spirit进取精神;创业精神of the Americans of which Kennedy is a best example.6. Kennedy' s argument and persuasion is based mainly on emotional appeal rather than facts. This type of speech would not be successful on all occasions. It can be successful only when the audience is already excited and does not have much time to think or when the audience is already susceptible to the message of the speaker.III. (P.56 )1. Our ancestors fought a revolutionary war to maintain that all men were created equal and God had given them certain unalienable rights which no state or ruler could take away from them. But today this issue has not yet been decided in many countries around the world.2. This much we promise to do and we promise to do more.3. United and working together we can accomplish a lot of things in a great number of joint undertakings.4. The United Nations is our last and best hope of survival in an age where the instruments of war have far surpassed the instruments of peace.5. We pledge to help the United Nations enlarge the area in which its authority and mandate授权;命令,指令would continue to be in effect or in force.6. before the terrible forces of destruction, which science can now release, overwhelm mankind; before this self-destruction, which may be planned or brought about by an accident, takes place7. Yet both groups of nations are trying to change as quickly as possible this uncertain balance of terrible military power which restrains each group from launching mankind's final war.8. So let us start once again (to discuss and negotiate) and let us remember that being polite is not a sign of weakness.•9. Let both sides try to call forth唤起;使起作用the wonderful things that science can do for mankind instead of the frightful things it can do.10. Americans of every generation have been called upon to prove their loyalty to their country (by fighting and dying for their country's cause).11. Let history finally judge whether we have done our task well or not, but our sure reward will be a good conscience for we will have worked sincerely and to the best of our ability.IV. (P.56)A.1.prescribe: set down or impose2.mortal: of man (as a being who must eventually die)3.disciplined: received training that developed self-control and character4.undoing : abolishing5. at odds: in disagreement ; quarreling6. iron: cruel; merciless7. bonds: chains; fetters束缚;枷锁8. invective: a violent verbal attack; strong criticism, insults, curses, etc.9. run:continue in effect or force10.stays:restrains11.tap:draw upon or make use of12.bear:take on;sustainB.1.fatal可用来指一切已经造成死亡或者可能导致死亡的事物(不能指人),侧重于其不可避免性。

Magna Products is the name of the firm owned by John Koshak. It designed and developed educational toys and supplies.3. Charlie thought they were in real trouble because salty water was sea water.

高英II-3课文后练习+答案:I. Write short notes on: Carlyle, and Lamb.Suggested Reference Books[SRB]1. The Oxford Companion to English Literature2. any standard book on the history of English literature3. Encyclopaedia BritannicaSee Additional Background Material for Teachers' Reference, points 6 and 71. Carlyle : Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881), English essayist and historian born at Ecclefechan,a village of the Scotch lowlands. After graduating from the University of Edinburgh, he rejected the ministry, for which he had been intended, and determined to he a writer of hooks. In 1826 he married Jane Welsh, a well-informed and ambitious woman who did much to further his career. They moved to Jane' s farm at Craigenputtoeh where they lived for 6 years (1828-1834 ). During this time he produced Sartor Resartus (1833-1834), a book in which he first developed his char- acteristic style and thought. This book is a veiled sardonic attack upon the shams and pretences of society, upon hollow rank, hollow officialism, hollow custom, out of which life and usefulness have departed. In 1837 he published The French Revolution, a poetic rendering and not a factual account of the great event in history. Besides these two masterpieces, he wrote Chartism (1840), On Heroes, hero Worship, and the Heroic in History (I841), Past and Present (1843) and others. "Carlylese", a peculiar style of his own, was a compound of biblical phrases, col loquialisms, Teutonic twists, and his own coinings, arranged in unexpected sequences. One of the most important social critics of his day, Carlyle influenced many men of the younger generation, among them were Mathew Arnold and Ruskin.2. Lamb : Charles Lamb (1775-1834), English essayist, was born in London and brought up within the precincts of the ancient law courts, his father being a servant to an advocate of the inner Temple. He went to school at Christ's Hospital, where he had for a classmate Coleridge, his life-long friend. At seventeen, he became a clerk in the India House and here he worked for 33 years until he was re-tired on a pension. His devotion to his sister Mary, upon whom rested an hereditary taint of insanity, has done al-most as much as the sweetness and gentle humor of his writings to endear his name. They collaborated on several books for children, publishing in 1867 their famous Tales from Shakespeare. His dramatic essays, Specimens of English Dramatic Poets (1808), established his reputation as a critic and did much in reviving the popularity of Eliza-be then drama. The Essays of Ella, published at intervals in London Magazine, were gathered together and republished in two series, the first in 1823, the second ten years later. They established Lamb in the title which he still holds, that of the most delightful of English essayists. II. Questions on content:1. What, according to the writer, makes good conversation? What spoils it?A good conversation does not really start from anywhere, and no one has any idea where it will go.A good conversation is not for making a point. Argument may often be a part of it, but the purpose of the argument is not to convince. When people become serious and talk as if they have something very important to say, when they argue to convince or to win their point, the conversation is spoilt.2. Why does the writer like"bar conversation" so much?The writer likes bar conversation very much because he has spent a lot of time in pubs and is used to this kind of conversation. Bar friends are companions, not intimates密友; 挚友. They arefriends but not intimate enough to be curious about each other's private life and thoughts.3. Does a good conversation need a focal subject to talk about?No. Conversation does not need a focus. But when a focal焦点的subject appears in the natural flow of conversation, the conversation becomes vivid, lively and more interesting.4. Why did the people talk about Australia? Why did the conversation turn to Norman England? The people talked about Australia because the speaker who introduced the subject mentioned incidentally that it was an Australian who had given her such a definition of "the King's English. " When the people talked about the resistance in the lower classes to any attempt by an upper class to lay down rules for "English as it should be spoken", the conversation moved to Norman England because at that time a language barrier existed between the Saxon peasants and the Norman conquerors.5. How does the use of words show class distinction?The Saxon peasants and their Norman conquerors used different words for the same thing. For examples see paragraph 9.6. Can you guess the writer's views on bilingual education? (para 11)The writer seems to be in favor of bilingual education. He is against any form of cultural barrier or the cultural humiliation of any section or group of people.7. Why was the term "Queen's English" used in 1593 and "the King' s English'in 16027The term "the Queen's English" was used in 1953 by Nash because at that time the reigning monarch was a queen, Elizabeth I. The term "the King's English" is the more common form because the ruling monarch is generally a king. Those who are not very particular may use the term "the King's English", even when the ruling monarch is a queen. In 1602, Dekker used the term "the King's English", although the reigning monarch was still Queen Elizabeth.8. When was"the King's English" regarded as a form of racial discrimination in England?“The King’s English”was regarded as a form 0f racial discrimination during the Norman rule in England about 1154—1399.9. What is the attitude of the writer towards" the King's English'' ?The writer thinks “the King’s English”is a class representation of reality.1t is worth trying to speak “the King’s English”,but it should not be 1aid down as an edict,and made immune to change from below.The King’s English is a model a rich and instructive one- but it ought not to be an ultimatum最后通碟.10. What does the writer mean when he says, "the King's English, like the Anglo-French of the Normans, is a class representation of reality" ? (para 16)During the Norman period,the ruling class spoke Anglo-French while the peasants spoke their native Saxon language.Language bears the stamp of the class that uses it.The King’s English today refers to the language used by the upper,educated class in England.III. Questions on appreciation:1. In what way is "pub talk" connected with "the King's English''? Is the title of the piece well chosen?The title of this piece is not well chosen.It misleads the readers into thinking that the writer is going to demonstrate some intrinsic or linguistic relationship between pub talk and the King’s English.Whereas the writer.in reality,is just discoursing on what makes good conversation.The King’s English is connected with “pub talk” when the writer describes the charming conversation he had with some people one evening in a pub on the topic “the King’s English”to illustrate hispoint that bar conversation in a pub has a charm of its own.2. Point out the literary and historical allusions used in this piece and comment on their use.1n this essay the writer alluded to many historical and literary event such as the Norman conquest,the saloons of 18th century Paris,and the words of many a man of letters.For a short expository essay like this,the allusions used are more than expected and desirable.3. What is the function of para 5? Is the change from "pub talk" to "the King's English" too abrupt?Paragraph 5 is a transition paragraph by means of which the writer passes from a general discourse on good conversation to a particular instance of it.But one feels the change from “pub talk”to “the King's English” a bit too abrupt.4. Do the simple idiomatic expressions like "to be on the rocks, out of bed on the wrong side, etc.," go well with the copious literary and historical allusions the writer uses? Give your reasons. The simple idiomatic expressions like "to be on the rocks,out of bed on the wrong side,etc.”may be said to go well with the copious literary and historical allusions the writer used for an informal conversational style to Suit the theme of this essay in which the writer tries to defend informal uses of language.5. Does the writer reveal his political inclination in this piece of writing? How?The writer’s attitude towards “the King’s English”shows that he is a defender of democracy.IV. Paraphrase:1. And it is an acuvity only of humans. (para 1)And conversation is an activity which is found only among human beings.(Animals and birds are not capable of conversation.)2. Conversation is not for making a point. (para 2)Conversation is not for persuading others to accept our idea or point of view.3. In fact, the best conversationalists are those who are prepared to lose. (para 2)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. (para 3)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 (para 6)The conversation could go on without anybody knowing who was right or wrong.6. There are cattle in the fields, but we sit down to beef (boeuf). (para 9)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. (para 11)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. (para 13)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. (para 15)The phrase,the King’s English,has always been used disrespectfully and jokingly by the lowerclasses.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. (para 15)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 that "words will harden into things for us." (para 16)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.For example,the word“dog”is a symbol representing a kind of animal.We mustn’t regard the word“dog”as being the animal itself.12. Even with the most educated and the most literate, the King's English slips and slides in conversation. (para 18)Even the most educated and literate people do not use standard,formal English all the time in their conversation.V. Translate paras 9--11 into Chinese.9有人举出了一个人所共知,但仍值得提出来发人深思的例子。

Kennedy thinks the world is different now because man has madegreat progress in science and technology and has not only the power (scientific farming, speedy transportation, mass production, etc. ) to abolish poverty, but also the power(missiles,H_bombs,etc.)to destroy all forms of human life.I agree with him.2.According to Kennedy,the belief still at issue around the globe is the belief that all man are created equal and God has given them certain inalienable rights which no state or ruler can take away from them.3.Kennedy considers as friends:a)the old allies of the U.S.,such as Britain,Canada,Australia,New Zealand and the western European countries;b) the countries in South America and;c)many of the developing countries in Asia and Africa that rely on U.S.aid.He considers all socialist countries as foes(all that time the socialist camp headed by the Soviet Union)and those developing countries preparing to take the socialist road.4.Britain,Canada,Australia,New Zealand.and in a wider sense one may also include France.5.Many new nations were born after World WarⅡ.especially in Africa.In 1 960 alone,just one year before Kennedy’s inaugural speech,the following countries in Africa declared their independence:The Republic of Central Africa,The Republic of Chad,The Republic of Dahomey,The People’s Republic of the Congo,The Jabon Republic,The Republic of Ghana.etc.6.The people who are in huts and villages are the poor people in backward developing countries in Africa and Asia.(Student give comments on the rest of the answer.)7.The stated policy of Kennedy towards Latin America is summed up in the phrase “alliance for progress”.Kennedy pledged to take concrete steps to assist these governments and people in casting off the chains of poverty.8.Kennedy’s policy towards “his adversary” is negotiation from a position of strength.The U.S.must first be strong enough to deter her adversary.From this strong position of absolute military superiority Kennedy proposes negotiating with the socialist camp(or the Soviet Union)on the following problems:a) arms control,b) cooperation in the fields of science,technology,arts and commerce,c)a new world system.9.He calls on his fellow Americans to make new sacrifices.to do what his country calls on him to do.He should be prepared to sacrifice everything,even his life if necessary,to defend freedom,to wage constant war against tyranny,poverty,disease and war.The “long twilight struggle” is not a hot war but a constant,persevering fight against tyranny,poverty,disease and the threat of war.10.There are probably some exaggeration in the claim that freedom was in its hour of maximum danger when Kennedy assumed office.However,it is historically justifiable that Kennedy assumed officeat a time when freedom was in a most critical hour.The new president had to face many dangers and crises.At home,freedom was endangered by the witch hunting campaign against government workers accused of being communists started by Senator McCarthy.So Kennedy made himself a strong supporter of civil rights.Ⅲ.1.The rhetorical devices/ figures of speech employed included:parallel and balanced structures,repetition of important words and phrases,and antitheses.2.Yes,the address is well organized.Kennedy addressed his old friends first with sweetest words and then his foes with sharp words.The order is clear and appropriate.3.In this highly rhetorical address,there are many examples to show that Kennedy is very particular and careful in his choice of and use of words as well as his choice of sentence patterns and structures. For example, in the sentence "To our sister republics south of our border, we offer a special pledge", the word "sister' is particularly chosen to connote equality and mutual good relations in his attempt to allay减轻;使平静the traditional fears these countries have of their powerful big brother in the north. And in the sentence "Finally, to those nations who would make themselves our adversary, we offer not a pledge but a request", the phrase"would make themselves our adversary" is again cleverly chosen to throw the blame for confrontation and world tension on the other party, It suggests that the United States has done nothing to create enemies. It is the other side that is challenging the U. S. , and the latter is forced to take the challenge although it really wants peace.4. Kennedy carefully made his tone and message suited to the different groups he addresses. In his address there is proclaimed loyalty to old allies to sustain unity, assured help and support to minor friends to keep them closely tied to the U. S. , warning advice to newborns to make them over, and veiled threat, warning and advice to the enemy camp to check ambitions on the part of the enemies.5. Among the passages most likely to be quoted: may be "we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty", as this is not only a carefully thought out, well-balanced sentence easy to remember and elegantly pleasant to read aloud, but also a sentence that best expresses the proud feelings of the Americans as the self-appointed leader of the "free democracies ". Kennedy's call for Americans to "ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country" is also very often quoted because it represents the enterprising spirit进取精神;创业精神of the Americans of which Kennedy is a best example.6. Kennedy' s argument and persuasion is based mainly on emotional appeal rather than facts. This type of speech would not be successful on all occasions. It can be successful only when the audience is already excited and does not have much time to think or when the audience is already susceptible to the message of the speaker.III. (P.56 )1. Our ancestors fought a revolutionary war to maintain that all men were created equal and God had given them certain unalienable rights which no state or ruler could take away from them. But today this issue has not yet been decided in many countries around the world.2. This much we promise to do and we promise to do more.3. United and working together we can accomplish a lot of things in a great number of joint undertakings.4. The United Nations is our last and best hope of survival in an age where the instruments of war have far surpassed the instruments of peace.5. We pledge to help the United Nations enlarge the area in which its authority and mandate授权;命令,指令would continue to be in effect or in force.6. before the terrible forces of destruction, which science can now release, overwhelm mankind; before this self-destruction, which may be planned or brought about by an accident, takes place7. Yet both groups of nations are trying to change as quickly as possible this uncertain balance of terrible military power which restrains each group from launching mankind's final war.8. So let us start once again (to discuss and negotiate) and let us remember that being polite is not a sign of weakness.•9. Let both sides try to call forth唤起;使起作用the wonderful things that science can do for mankind instead of the frightful things it can do.10. Americans of every generation have been called upon to prove their loyalty to their country (by fighting and dying for their country's cause).11. Let history finally judge whether we have done our task well or not, but our sure reward will be a good conscience for we will have worked sincerely and to the best of our ability.IV.
