Before the family built their own house, they lived in a shabby cabin at Gopher Key, close to the merciless Walton. The author uses an understatement -not the most gracious of living quarters -to describe their shabby, temporary home.6. We had abundant food on the island, and even the meals enjoyed by King Richard, who was famous for his love of food, couldn't possibly compare with ours. The tone shows the content of the author with the adequate supply of food on the island.7. Although it was very hot outside in the sun, we were happy to be dismissed from my mother's sessions indoors. We would have to read and write with her every day no matter what the weather was like.Lesson 41. The impact of Mike's leaving on my life was beyond my imagination. I didn't expect that Mike's leaving would have such a tremendous power that it would change the meaning of my existence completely. All my thoughts were about loss of Mike.2. At that time, we were young mothers, and we were supposed to lead a terribly busy life full of confusion and bewilderment caused by giving birth to and raising babies. And our minds were supposed to be fully occupied by how to feed the babies and things like that. However, in the midst of all this we still felt the need to discuss some of the important thinkers of our time like Simone de Beauvoir and Arthur Koestler and T. S. Eliot’s sophisticated work "The Cocktail Party".3. 1 would be frightened, and my fear was not caused by my neighbors' visibly hostile and violent way of life, but by a kind of formless and hidden emptiness and meaninglessness of human existence. What happened around me was totally irrelevant to me, and I feel very isolated and alienated.4. She did not ask me abut my new life, either out of subtle consideration for my feeling about this sensitive subject or out of disapproval of my new life style.5. 1t would be a morally low thing, an indecent thing to commit infidelity in the house of a friend.6. 1 knew that he was a person who had experienced the worst in life, the hardest experience a person might have to endure.7. They experienced the worst together and they knew what it was like and understood the meaning of that experience. Such an experience posed the gravest test to people. If they stood the test, their friendship or marriage would be strengthened, and a sacred bondage would be formed between them. But if they failed the test, their relationship would be broken and they would be driven apart.8. 1f they acted on love, they would take risks. They wouldn't do that or go further in their relationship, but they would rather let their love remain as a sweet trickle, which would flow on gently and permanently, and as an underground resource, which would never be fully tapped but would never go dry.Lesson 61. The raising of a pig is like a tragedy, because it always ends in the killing of the pig, and the set pattern一buying, raising and butchering一is strictly followed in most terms. The killing, deliberately planned and efficiently carried out, is the most serious type of murder, yet, whether pigs should be killed and meat served has never been questioned.2. A pig couldn't ask for any better living conditions; at least no pig has ever complained.3. . .. since a pig is, like a child, always hungry, the whole family would be worried when it refuses to eat.4. Fred was quite exited about the event. He was down at the pigpen all the time. Because of his swollen joints, he moved about unsteadily. His face set ap.art the grass along the fence as he moved about. He was like a doctor, with his Jong, drooping ears dangling like a stethoscope, and he scrabbled on the ground as if he were prescribing some medicine.5. When things were ready for the closing of the pig, Fred became even more excited. With short legs and a long body, it managed to get through the fence and acted as if it was taking charge of the medical treatment.6. . . . 0ur procession was a serious and efficient one. Fred, who acted as the pallbearer, walked unsteadily in the back, though he was not qualified for that function. The sorrow of losing a family member was shown clearly in his face. The autopsy of the body's inwards was done right at the side of the grave. The intestines at the pig were first thrown into the grave, so the pig could lie exactly on those things that caused his death.7. . . . 1f a pig dies before he is supposed to, it is a serious matter for the whole community to remember. The whole community would share the sadness for his death.8. The purpose of this essay is to show that l am sorry for what has happened to my pig, since 1 have failed to raise the pig and cannot provide a reason why it didn't grow the way other pigs have grown,9. The pig's grave in the woods doesn't have a tombstone, but whenever somebody wants to visit it, Fred will show the way. I know Fred and I will often visit it, separate or together, when we need to ponder over problems or when we are depressed. And these days will be like memorial days, with the only difference of not hoisting the national flag.Lesson 91. This is perhaps because they only have places of birth, but not places where they feel at home and which they identify themselves with. But these girls are strongly influenced by their hometown, and the influence stays with them forever even after they leave their hometown.2.

And they will develop, become stronger and stay with them So whenever and wherever this funk bursts out, the brown girls will do their best to stifle it.3. 1f his needs were physical, she could meet them. She could make him comfortable and give him enough or even more than enough to satisfy his physical needs.4. Geraldine had seen black girls like Pecola at many places and many times in the past.5. 0n the one hand, they (girls like Pecola) were ignorant and uncomprehending. They did not ask question why their lives were so miserable. On the other hand, as they were poverty-stricken and practically had nothing, their eyes revealed their desire for anything that could make their lives easier.6. 1n the eyes of these girls one can see that they were in despair, without any hope for the future, and that their life was nothing but a waste.7. As the girls were growing into young women, they had never worn girdles to make their figure look slimmer, and thus more elegant; and when the boys grew up, they just began to wear their caps with the bills turned backward to indicate that they had become adults.Lesson 101.As Saint George is a hero, the patron of arms, symbolizing chivalry, his image often appears on banners,and his name is often mentioned in the speeches of politicians (politicians often pay lip service to him).Saint George is used as a symbolic figure for political purposes. But John Bull is the tradesman and he delivers the goods we need in our daily life while making money at the same time.2.The English public schools have four unique features. First, all boys live in boarding houses. Second, sportsand games are organized and compulsory as part of the school curricula. Third, older students have special duties to help control younger students while the latter must do jobs for the former. Lastly, great emphasis is placed on good form and team spirit. These features enable the public school students to have disproportionately great influence.3.Pay attention to my use of the word "bankrupt", a word related to business. This reveals my identity as amember of the commercial nation, who would be careful and sensible enough to avoid any risks of failing to pay their debts.4.But my friend expressed his views as a member of the Oriental countries. They are nourished by a traditionof great generosity and richness, which is different from the English tradition of middle-class prudence.5.In this aspect, true love is different from material things such as clay or even gold which can be divided andtaken away. Yet, if we share true love, it will never diminish.6.In the above anecdote, I have become an example of the Englishmen for the moment. That put me in a highposition which makes me dizzy and is unfamiliar to me. I will now come down from that height and return to my role as your commentator on the characteristics of the Englishman.7.The Englishman's nervous system acts promptly and feels slowly. The combination of the two qualities isuseful, and anyone who has this combination is mostly likely to be brave.8.As literature is based on national character, there must be in the English nature hidden resources of passionthat have produced the great romantic literature we see.9.That kind of criticism is just like Bernard Shaw's attacks. It is nothing new and I'm used to these tricks andjokes; they won't do any harm to me.10.The Englishmen think they have a tolerant and humorous attitude toward criticism. In fact it is not so,because their attitude is limited by uncomfortable laughter, which indicates that beneath the surface of their tolerant humorous attitude they are uneasy. When they try to be humorous and brush aside criticism, they would titter and guffaw. Such uncomfortable laughter is a sign of uneasiness.11.1I have already made all my opinions known to you. What is said is said, and being diplomatic cannotunsay what has been said.。

What the wealthy employers would really like to do is to whipall the workers whom they regard as lazy and troublesome.3...there are notmany of these men , either on the boardor the shop floor...

The Future of the EnglishParaphrase1.The English people may hotly argue and abuse and quarrel with each other but there still exists a lot of natural sympathetic feeling for each other.2. What the wealthy employers would really like to do is to whip all the workers whom they consider to be lazy and troublesome people.3. There are not many snarling shop stewards in the work-shop, nor are there many cruel wealthy employers on the board of managers (or governing board of a factory).4. The contemporary world demands that everything be done on a big scale and the English do not like or trust bigness.5. At least on the surface, when Englishness is put against the power and success of Admass, English ness seems to put up a rather poor weak performance.6. Englishness is not against change, but it believes that changing just for changing and for no other useful purpose to be very wrong and harmful.7. To regard cars and motorways as more important than houses seems to Englishness a public stupidity~8. I must further say that while Englishness can go on fighting, there is a great possibility of Admass winning.9. Englishness draws its strength from a reservoir of strong moral and ethical principles, and soon it may be asking for strength which this reservoir of principles cannot supply.10. These people probably believe, as I do, that the 'Good Life' promised by Admass is false and dishonest in all respects.11. He will not even find much satisfaction in his untidy and disordered life where he manages to live as a parasite by sponging on people. This kind of life does not help a person to build up any self-respect.12. These people think of the House of Commons as a place rather far away where some people are always quarreling and arguing over some small matter.13. If a dictator comes to power, these people then will soon learn in the worst way that they were very wrong to ignore politics for they can now suddenly and for no reason be arrested and thrown into prison.TranslationA1.他们甚至比自己想象中的英国人还要不同,倒是同他们自己感觉中的英国人差不多。
