L3.Pub T alk and t he King’s English(酒吧闲聊与标准英语)Henry Fairlie(亨利·费尔利 )1.Conversation is the mostsociable of all human activities. And it is anactivity only of humans. However intricate the way in which animalscommunicate with each other, they do notindulge in anything thatdeserves the name of conversation.人类的全部活动中,闲聊是最具社交性的sociable (主题句),也是人类独有的。

而动物之间的信息交流,不论其方式何等复杂 intricate ,也是称不上社交的。

1. And it is an activity only of humans. (para1)并且它是人类独有的一种活动。

And conversation is an activity which is found only among human being.Sociable [?so???bl] adj.平和的,好社交的,友好的 friendly or agreeable,eapecially in aneasy,informal way( 用书)intricate (adj) : hard to follow or understand because full of puzzling parts , details , or relationships 盘根错节的;难以理解的,难懂的Indulge : 听凭自己沉迷于;耽于 to allow yourself to have or do sth that you like,eapecially sth that is considered bad for you ----indulge in sth, indulge yourself.例:Women do not indulge in to the same extent as men.deserve: 值得;应得2.The charm of conversation is that it does not really start from anywhere,and no one has any idea where it will go as itmeanders or leaps andsparkles or just glows. The enemy of good conversation is the person who has “something to say”.Conversation is not for making a point. Argument may often be a part of it, but the purpose of the argument is not toconvince.There is no winning in conversation. In fact, the best conversationalists are those who are prepared tolose. Suddenly they see the moment for one of their best anecdotes, but in a flash the conversation has moved on and the opportunity is lost. They are ready to let it go.2.闲聊的令人着迷之处就在于它没有一个预先设定好的主题。

2023年高级英语thefutureoftheenglish中英笔记

第二册 lesson 11 The Future of TheEnglish英国人旳未来J .B.Priestley JB普里斯特利1 【To write about the English in standard and cosmopolitan political terms, the usual Left-Centre-Right stuff, is almost always wasting time and trouble.The English are different.The English are even more different than they think they are, though not more different than they feel they are.And what they feel — Englishness again - is more important than what they think.It is instinctive feeling and not rational thought that shapes and colours actual events in England. 背诵】若想用世界上流行旳原则政治术语, 即左、中、右三派这种毫无意义旳陈腔老调来描述英国人旳话, 那多半是白费时间, 徒耗精力。

英国人可是与众不一样。

他们甚至比自己想象中旳英国人还要不一样, 倒是同他们自己感觉中旳英国人差不多。

而他们所感觉到旳…这一点再次反应出英国人旳特性——比他们想象到旳更为重要。

在英国, 决定一切事物形式和色彩旳不是人旳理性思维, 而是人旳本能感觉。

cosmopolitan (adj.) : common to or representative of all or many parts of the world;not national or local世界性旳;不限于国家或地区范围旳----------------------------------------------------------------------------------2 For example, although the English seem to be so sharply divided, always indulging in plenty of loud political abuse, there are nothing like so many Communists or neo- or potential Fascists in England as there are in most other countries.Again, although the English seem to have more than their share of rallies, protest marches, confrontations with authority, what could begin to look like a murderous encounter in France or America, or might be a bloody street battle in Japan, would in England end at the worst in a few scuffles and arrests.This is because there are fewer fanatical believers among the English, and at the same time, below the noisy arguments, the abuse and the quarrels, there is a reservoir of instinctive fellow-feeling, not yet exhausted though it may not be filling up.Not everybody can draw on that reservoir.No doubt there are in England some snarling shop stewards who demand freedom for the workers when what they really want is to bring the whole system crashing down, together with every guarantee of liberty.No doubt there are wealthy employers who smile at the TV cameras and declare that all they desire is the friendliest relation with their work force, when at heart they would like to take a whip to the whole idle troublesome mob of them.Butthere are not many of these men, either on the board or the shop floor, and they are certainly not typical English.Some cancer in their character has eaten away their Englishness.举例来说, 尽管英国人表面上似乎存在着严重旳意见分歧, 彼此之间进行政治上旳袭击谩骂也是常有旳事, 但英国却不像许多其他国家同样有那么多旳共产主义者以及新旳或潜在旳法西斯主义分子。

Lesson Fourteen I would Like to Tell You Something Words and ExpressionsText Explanation1many of them highly decorated.many of them were awarded medals of high distinction because they had fought bravely in Vietnam.2with the full awareness of officers at all levels of commandOfficers of all ranks in the US army knew perfectly well what was being done in Vietnam.3spill out their hearts or purse their soulsExpress their deepest feelings, tell people about all the terrible things they had done in Vietnam, or relieve themselves of their guilty feelings, so that they could have peace of mind.4…you don't start making things right by prosecuting William CalleyYou can't change the situation inVietnam or what happened in the Vietnam War by just bringing William Calley to court and punishing him. That is to say, the US government was responsible for what had been done in Vietnam.5 a total press blackoutNo newspaper reported this investigation.6but said it would never get by his desk because the Army would rescind the magazine's accreditation to cover the war.If a newspaper or a magazine wanted to send reporters to Vietnam to report the war, they had to get the permission fromthe Army. Then they would have the right to report the war. If the reporter he talked to let this article leave his desk, which meant to be published, then the Army would take away the magazine's right to send reporters to Vietnam.7If you don't cover the war you don't sell magazines, and if you don't sell magazine then nothing happens because that's the American way.The American public depended heavily on the media for news. Here magazine is used to symbolize the entire media. If what really happened in the war could not be reported in the media, the American public would not be able to know about the real situation. Also, if that magazine was forbidden by the Army to report the war, then they would lose readers because they would not buy this magazine, and that's the American way of life.8 a large New York based firmA large firm having branches or offices in other cities or other parts of the world, with it's headquarters in New York.9we used to do that in World War II, Christ, what's new?We used to do the same kind of things during World War II, so what was happening in Vietnam was not new at all.10The message begins to sink in.It implies that at first the new soldiers didn't fully understand the message of the poster.When something begins to sink in, it means that it takes quite a while for the meaning to be fully understood.11done by remote controlIt means the killing done from planes and helicopters. American soldier did not have to kill the Laotians face to face.12the helicopter crews fill the same body bags as the ground troopsWhen the soldiers are killed, their bodies are put into body bags. Here the author means that the helicopter crews can be killed to, just like ground troops have been killed.13America has created a monster in the form of millions of fighting menMillions of soldiers returned from Vietnam angry about what the government had sent them to do, and their anger could turn into violent actions14the biggest nothing in historyHere it means the Vietnam War, which is the most meaningless war in history according to the author.15We are angry about the same things you are in terms of policy.As far as policy is concerned, we are angry about things that you are angry about.16 a sense of anger and betrayalFeeling angry and believing that the US government had betrayed them.17But for us, those boys in Vietnam whom the country is supposed to support, this is a terrible distortion from which we draw only the deepest revulsion.We had fought in Vietnam, therefore belonged to the group that Mr. Agnew called "best men". But for us, what Agnew had said was a distortion of facts which made us feel very much disgusted.18how many American bodies were provided to prove that point.How many American soldier had to die to prove that point.19receive little if any careIf they receive any care at all, it is very little. The meaning is negative.20…and he found himself doing to the Vietnamese exactly what had been done to his people and what he had been conditioned by America to applaud.…and he found himself doing to the Vietnamese the things that the white people in America had done to his people - the American Indians, and he also found himself doing the things that America had trained him to thing it was right to do.22all the goodness of his uniformAll the good quality fo the American army and all the glory it has ever won for the country.23… the policy of the United States in Indochina is tantamount to genocide.tantamount to: equal in effect to 等同于What the child says is tantamount to the command for her parents.24but said it would never get by his deskget by: leave, bypass 离开,通过The crowd moved aside to let the doctor get by.25But the press isn't the only party in this country that's guilty of this rampant insensitivity.be guilty of: having done wrong 有罪They were not sure whether he was guilty of stealing.26And so we're suddenly faced with a sickening situation in this country.be faced with: encounter 遇到,面临We are faced with new challenge now.27…who are almost exhausted from past indignities inflicted on them.inflict on: cause to suffer 使遭受The judge inflicted the death penalty on the murderer.The bad news inflicted a severe blow on him.28We're angry about the same things you are in terms of policyin terms of: mode of expression, according to 以某种说法来表达We should consider problems in terms of the people's interests.29…whom the country is supposed to supportbe supposed to: be expected to 应该The students are supposed to study hard.30It's a distortion because we in no way considered ourselveds the "best men" in this country in no way: not at all 一点也不In fact, he is in no way honest.31because those he called misfits were standing up for us in a way nobody else in this country dare to in a way: to a certain degree, in some aspects 在某方面,某种程度In a way middle school students are more difficult to teach than college students.32when we were ashamed of and hated what we were called on to do in Asia.call on: appeal to, invite, require 号召,要求I called on her to keep the secret for me.33We are paying homage to the dead in Arlington.pay homage to: express respect for 表示敬意Many students paid homage to the teachers on the graduation ceremongy.34The war is part and parcel of everything that we are trying to communicate to people of this country.part and parcel: an essential part of 主要部分Words and grammar should be part and parcel of English learning.Hanent整理。

第二课Hiroshima—the “Liveliest” City in JapanTYPE of Writing: journalist writing (feature article) (as described by the author “a reportorial assignment)Paraphrase:1.The men with serious facial expressions were so absorbed in talking with each other and seemed not to pay any attention to people around them.2. As soon as the taxi driver saw a traveler, he immediately opened the door.3. The traditional floating houses among high modern buildings represent the constant struggle between the old tradition and new development.4. I suffered from a strong feeling of shame when I thought of the scene of meeting the mayor of Hiroshima wearing my socks only.5.The few Americans and Germans seemed just as restrained as I was.6. After three days in Japan one gets quite used to bowing to people as a ritual to show gratitude.7. I was on the point of showing my agreement by nodding when I suddenly realized what he meant. His words shocked me out of my sad dreamy thinking.8. I thought for some reason or other no harm had been done to me.翻译:1.There is not a soul in the hall. The meeting must have been put off.2. The book looks very much like a box./ The book looks much the same as a box..3. Sichuan dialect sounds much the same as Hubei dialect. It is sometimes difficult to tell one from the other.4. The very sight of the monument reminds me of my good friend who was killed in the battle.5. He was deep in his thought that he was oblivious of what his friends were talking about.6. What he did had nothing to do with her.7. She couldn’t fall asleep as her daughter’s illness was very much on her mind.8. I have had the matter on my mind for a long time.9. He loves such gatherings at which he rubs shoulders with young people and exchange opinions with them on various subjects.10. It was only after a few minutes that his words sank in.11. The soil smells of fresh grass.12. Could you spare me a few minutes?13. Could you spare me a ticket?14. That elderly grey-haired man is a coppersmith by trade.修辞手法:1. Simile: A simile makes a comparison between two unlike things having at least one quality or characteristic in common. The two things compared must be dissimilar and the basis of resemblance is usually an abstract quality. The vehicle is almost always introduced by the word "like" or "as".1) The bus went as slowly as a snail.2) Her eyes were jet black, and her hair was like a waterfall.2. Metaphor is considered the most important and basic poetic figure and also the commonest the most beautiful.1) Snow clothes the ground.2) The town was stormed after a long siege.3) Boys and girls, tumbling in the streets and playing, were moving jewels.Examples in the text:1) I had a lump in my throat2) At last this intermezzo came to an end...3) I was again crushed by the thought...4) ...when the meaning ... sank in, jolting me...3. Metonymy(借代、换喻)Uses sth generally or loosely associated with a concept to stand in for it.1) ...little old Japan adrift amid beige concrete skyscrapers ...struggle between kimono and the miniskirt2) I thought that Hiroshima still felt the impact4. Euphemism: the substitution of an agreeable or inoffensive expression for one that may offend or suggest sth unpleasant. e.g:1) He was sentenced to prison---He is now living at the government's expenses.2) The boy is a bit slow for his age.3) to go to heaven---dead4) to go to the bathroom, do one's business, answer the nature's call, put an end to my life.5) Each day of suffering that helps to free me from earthly cares.5. Irony: People say the opposite of what they mean. For example, if the day has been terrible, you say, “Boy, this has been a great day!”Irony is more emphatic than a point-blank statement of the truth. It achieves its effect by reminding you of the opposite reality and this providing a scale by which to judge the resent reality.1) Hiroshima---the Liveliest City in Japan2) the good fortune that my illness has brought me6. Anti-Climax: A Humorous Figure of Speech, which refers to any of the following:a. A decline viewed in disappointing contrast with a previous rise: the anticlimax of a brilliant career.b. something trivial or commonplace that concludes a series of significant events: After a week of dramatic negotiations, all that followed was anticlimax.c. A sudden descent in speaking or writing from the impressive or significant to the ludicrous or inconsequential, or an instance of it;1) Alas!Alas!What shall I do? I've lost my wife and best hat, too!哎呀哎呀!我怎么办呢?我失去了妻子,又丢了最好的帽子!2) The duties of a soldier are to protect his country and peel potatoes.士兵的职责是保卫祖国和剥土豆皮。
