1. In She Walks in Beauty 拜伦 , How does the poet describe

a beautiful woman?

In the first section, the author compares the lady to a night sky full of bright stars,

which gives off a wonderful combination of light and dark. In the second section,

which depicts her almost perfect hair and face, her external beauty is as pure and

beautiful as her internal beauty. The light on her face was almost perfect. Her

thoughts are sincere and sweet. The last section tells readers that her soft cheeks,

her charming smile and the color of her skin express not only her external beauty,

but also once again the purity, kindness and peace of her spirit.在第一节，作者将

这位女士比作充满了明亮星星的夜空，发出了明与暗结合的美妙色泽。在第二

节，描绘了她几乎完美的头发和脸，她的外在美和内在美相比，是一样的纯洁

而美丽。她脸上的光芒近乎完美。她的思想又真诚又甜美。最后一节告诉读

者，她柔软的脸颊，她迷人的微笑和肤色的光彩，表达的不仅是她的外在美，

更是再一次说明她的精神的纯洁、善良与平和。

2. In Sonnet 18, Why does the poet think it is inaccurate to compare his friend to a day in summer? 在十四行诗18中，为什么诗人认为把他的朋友比作夏天的一天是不准确的？

Firstly, compared with his friend’s loveliness and smooth temper, summer is too violent

with its rough winds, destroying the beauty of May (darling buds of May); what’s more,

summer is too short in comparison to his friend’s eternal beauty. 首先，与他朋友的

可爱和温和的脾气相比，夏天的风太猛烈了，破坏了五月的美丽(五月的蓓蕾);

更重要的是，与他朋友永恒的美丽相比，夏天太短了。

Secondly, the summer sun is sometimes too hot and sometimes too obscured by clouds:

it is not constant as his friend’s beauty is. 其次，夏天的太阳有时太热，有时又被

云遮住:它不像他朋友的美丽那样恒久不变。

Thirdly, beauty can’t always stay with every beautiful person or object in nature.

Natural beauty will disappear or will be destroyed by accident or by nature’s change of seasons.

The violent, short, hot and inconstant summer’s day possesses qualities different from

those of his friend: gentle, constant and warm.

That’s why the comparison is inaccurate.

第三，美丽不能总是停留在每一个美丽的人或物体在自然界。

自然之美会消失或被意外或自然的季节变化所破坏。

夏日的狂暴、短暂、炎热和变幻无常，与他的朋友的性格不同:温和、持续和温

暖。

这就是为什么这种比较是不准确的。

Reading makes a full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact man.

natural philosophy deep; moral grave; logic and rhetoric able to contend.

读史使人明智，读诗使人灵秀，数学使人周密，科学使人深刻，伦理学使人庄

重，逻辑修辞之学使人善辩。
