From Fred's point of view, the interview was going very smoothly indeed. Five days before, he had applied for a job at a small business company and now he was being interviewed by one of its directors.

Fred had been working as a salesman. He wanted to change his job not because he was short of money, but because as a salesman he could hardly enjoy any leisure at all.

Fred had been worried that he might lose his head and say something silly, but fortunately he found that he had a lot in common with the director.

It was clear that the director was quite satisfied. Fred was thinking that his chances of landing the job were favourable when the director proceeded to ask, "Do you mind working overtime?"

练习册:We may regard “if only” as indicating the past and “next time” the future, we all know the most important time is “now”, as past things could not be changed and future is based on “now”. I. 1. The old man was an eminent psychiatrist and the author was a client of his. (famous and respected within a particular profession) 2. Refer to para. 1. To him, the session was just like “a flash of insight that leaves him a changed person not only changed, but changed for the better.” 3. The three speakers on the tape were all unhappy, and the two words they all used frequently in what they said were “if only.” What the old man wanted to point out to the author was that to keep saying “if only anything; on the contrary, it only kept the person facing the wring way—backward instead of forward. Thus it did more harm than good to the person who kept saying them. (See para. 15) 4. Shift the focus; substitute “next time” for “if only” 5. They point to entirely different mental directions; one is backward and negative, and the other forward and positive. 6. It is instructive and inspirational. II. 1. The most inspiring and gratifying fact of life is the unexpected spark of enlightenment that makes you different and a better person than before. 2. At last he walked over from the other side of the street, wrapped in his old-fashioned overcoat, his bald head covered by a shapeless felt hat. He looked like a dwarfish old man full of energy rather than a well-known psychiatrist. 3. The next speaker on the tape was a woman who had remained single because she thought she was obliged to take care of her mother who was a widow. She still remembered and told others miserably about all the chances of marriage she had missed. 4. Eventually, if you form a habit of say ing “if only”, the phrase can really turn to an obstruction, providing you with an excuse for giving up trying anything at all. 5. …you are always thinking of the past, regretting and lamenting. You did not look forward to what you can do in the future at all. 6. The Old Man said to me trickily, using the phrase “if only” on purpose, “If only we?d got here ten we?d have caught the cab.” I laughed and understood what he meant. So I followed his advice and said, I?ll run faster”. III. 1. The whole plan fell through for want of fund. 2. Newton is acknowledged as one of the world?s most eminent scientists. 3. He calculates the cost of production with invariable accuracy. 4. The spokesman of the corporation was berated for his irresponsible words. 5. The young clerk from the commercial bank LANGUAGE WORK

1) The reason why little girl like Barbie very much is that she looks like real people and can be dressed up in a perfect way. 2) Man-made objects, though out-numbered by natural objects, play a more and more important role in people’s life. 3)The number of man-made object is increasing steeply, compared with the number of natural objects as well as its actual number. 4) The little girl of today would gladly use their old Barbie to exchange the new version of Barbie whereas their mother or grandmother would be reluctant to throw away their dolls until they fall-apart simply, because they are too old nothing could be more obvious than the difference between them. 5)The societies and people that are used to poverty reject the practice of using one product only for once or a short time and then replace it by a new one. 6) It is meaning that less for a man who is fairy old to say that he wants to develop a hobby in this or that form. 7)It is sensible that you further develop the hobby; you already have instead of trying to cultivate a new one. 8)Taking up a hobby and living a more regularized way of life are the most effective way to save them from their boredom. 9)The long hour’s work in the office or factory provides these people with the money so they can live their lives and gives them a strong desire for the simplest pleasure. 10)In fact, it is highly likely that those people who take their work as their pleasure are need to divert their effort from work from time to time urgently. 11)The ability to do the right thing at the right time is essential to a good leader. 12) A leader must be good at exercising his authority (this is a quality that a leader must have) and be able to demonstrate to the people that he does. 13) A leader should find out what the people want to do or have, and guide them to achieve it. 14) If we are not powerful, determined and brave, we can’t except to f ind a good leader, no matter how skilled we are in shopping images, we can’t make him to be what he is not, he is only a representative of all of us. 15) John Dewey has said seriously that the degree that someone’s behavior can influence the custom is the same as the degree that his body talk can influence his mother tongue. 16)The result from a serious study of the custom which is not influence by the outside shows that what Dewey said is just an objective description of the fact. 17) If we still think that our culture is superior to those of the people who we regard as uncivilized, underdeveloped or irreligious, the study anthropology must be meaningless. 18)W e must realized that all the beliefs are based on the same thing, the intangible and should be treated equally along with our own. 19)I believe that people in the society high above me are selfless, pure, noble and very intelligent. 20)But it is difficult for a man of the working class to improve his social status, especially when he was full of objectives and imaginations 21)It is physically strong, and they profited a lot by exploiting my strength, but I only lived a poor life. 22)He was no longer strong enough to make money by selling his strength and had nothing left to him, he had no other choice, but to slide down to the bottom of the society and die there in misery. 23) After 100 years, the black people is still suffering in the isolated part of American society, and he feels like an outcast in his own country. 24) We can see very clearly that as far as the black people are concerned, America didn’t fulfill its promise. 25) We are here to demand the fulfillment of the promises which can guarantee us our freedom and justice. 26)This is not the right time to calm down and adopt gradualism, waiting patiently for a solution.

综合英语教程第三版 (邹为诚)

unit1响尾蛇伤 我们在西波顿种植西瓜和香瓜供应市场。我家有一块瓜地和花圃在紧靠甘蔗地的谷仓背后。一天,我从工具棚里拿了把镰刀想去砍个西瓜自己吃。他们是不许我拿这把刀的,因为它的刀刃比我的胳膊还长。但它是切西瓜的最好工具。一刀下去,西瓜就一分为二了。 我正沿着瓜地边走边拍打着想找一个熟瓜,突然感觉脚好像被针一样的东西扎了一下。我为是踩在一堆蒺藜草上了。 转眼一看,却发现是一条响尾蛇。我知道响尾蛇在袭击之前都要发出响声以示警告的,而我对那响声的熟悉程度决不亚于我熟悉鹌鹑。后来我才明白它是没有时间警告,我肯定是一脚踩在它的嘴巴上了。我边往家飞奔,边大声喊叫,满脑子想的都是自己肯定要死了。妈妈赶快解下围裙用上面的带子绑在我的膝盖上部。她扶我到前屋的沙发上躺下,让玛莎照看我。当时在场的既没有一个男人也没有一匹马。最近的住宅是豪威尔先生家,但他家没有马。再远点的是吉姆·安德森家,穿过田地抄近路也有半英里的距离。妈妈冲向安德森家。安德森的一个儿子跳上马就直奔城里,在安德森家打工的克拉克的儿子用车把妈妈送回家。回到家,妈妈发现围裙带已被玛莎解开了,因为我直叫系得太紧。妈妈给我重新绑上,她用力很猛以致于我失声叫了起来。 然后,妈妈又到门廊朝那条通往城里的路张望。这条路位于安德森和豪威尔两家领地中间,一直延伸到小山顶端,因此从这里你可以看见所有路过的人或物。我总是远远就能辨认出我们的马车和汤姆,尤其是爸爸赶车的时候。这时,如果得到允许,汤姆就会因为急于吃到马槽里的东西而撒腿跑起来,爸爸也总是允许它这么做的。 赫伯·安德森的意见是首先找爸爸,如果他不在就找麦肯斯医生,再不成就找菲尔德或别的医生。 妈妈一边盯着看谁的马先出现,一边不时地进屋安慰我。 终于,妈妈说道:“你爸爸来了。” Read more 误解 这是个古老的故事,的确是要说到1864年的事。那时,英国军队驻扎在牙买加的一个团养了只官兵都喜爱的大猴子。那是只善于思考、极有主见的猴子,他的行为习惯和举止总是令军官们开心不已。他的居所对着军官食堂的窗户,尽管身上系着很长但不重的链子,他照样自得其乐,淘气逗人。比如有一天,他觉得一位年轻军官羞侮了他,便立即把食堂窗户敲得惊天动地。军官们只好把他的居所移到一个不太招眼的地方,但他依旧自娱自乐。任何活生生的东西,只要胆敢闯入他链长所及的范围内,就免不了被折腾得手忙脚乱一阵子。而那些倒霉的鸡鸭,却经常误入他的领地。那就会被他一下子抓住,有时竟被他扼杀,不过更多的时候,他都是恶作剧地对这些痛苦的阶下囚实施全身或半身拔毛手术,然后再放开。 然而,有一只鸡却让他突然强烈地喜欢上了。他是逮住了它,但他即不拔毛也不扼杀,反倒是百般怜惜、抚爱有加。这种毫无顾忌的举动使那只不幸的鸡恐怕是宁受拔毛之刑吧。猴子拧它,揉它,抚摸它,搂抱它,把它举得高高地,令它展翅起舞,又把它放开一会儿,可当它试图逃脱时又顽皮地将它两腿一抓。可那只鸡怎么地都不领情,反倒是完全误解了猴情猴意。但猴子却始终不渝,牢牢地紧握着这个心肝宝贝不放松。他满以为忠贞不渝的柔情蜜意即能赢得芳心归,没想到讨好卖乖了一番却不成功,因而更加大献殷勤:不一样地抚摸,更挚着地摩挲,更卖力地搓揉,还逗得它更欢快地舞蹈。可万分钟情也未能赢得回眸一顾。终于,在猴子极其亲昵的拥抱中,鸡给整死了,至死也未能理解猴的一片赤诚。 猴子处于极度悲伤之中。可想而知,他好不容易发现心爱之鸡,而这心爱之鸡未能回报丝毫之柔情,竟弃他而去!可悲复可怜!他开始着手祭奠的仪式,每一动作都表现出他沉痛

新编英语教程第三版李观仪Unit课文及译文参考

Unit 1 恰到好处 Have you ever watched a clumsy man hammering a nail into a box? He hits it first to one side, then to another, perhaps knocking it over completely, so that in the end he only gets half of it into the wood. A skillful carpenter, on the other hand, will drive the nail with a few firm, deft blows, hitting it each time squarely on the head. So with language; the good craftsman will choose words that drive home his point firmly and exactly. A word that is more or less right, a loose phrase, an ambiguous expression, a vague adjective (模糊的形容词), will not satisfy a writer who aims at clean English. He will try always to get the word that is completely right for his purpose. 你见过一个笨手笨脚的男人往箱子上钉钉子吗?只见他左敲敲,右敲敲,说不准还会将整个钉子锤翻,结果敲来敲去到头来只敲进了半截。而娴熟的木匠就不这么干。他每敲一下都会坚实巧妙地正对着钉头落下去,一钉到底。语言也是如此。一位优秀的艺术家谴词造句上力求准确而有力地表达自己的观点。差不多的词,不准确的短语,摸棱两可的表达,含糊不清的修饰,都无法使一位追求纯真英语的作家满意。他会一直思考,直至找到那个能准确表达他的意思的词。 The French have an apt(贴切的) phrase for this. They speak of “le mot juste,” (the exact word) the word that is just right. Stories are told of scrupulous(一丝不苟的) writers, like Flaubert, who spent days trying to get one or two sentences exactly right. Words are many and various; they are subtle(微妙的) and delicate(细腻的) in their different shades(色调)of meaning, and it is not easy to find the ones that express precisely(正是,恰恰) what we want to say. It is not only a matter of having a good command of language and a fairly wide vocabulary; it is also necessary to think hard and to observe accurately. Choosing words is part of the process of realization, of defining our thoughts and feelings for ourselves, as well as for those who hear or read our words.
