Lesson 9 Paraphrase1. …with a face that seem totally unfamiliar with laughter…...with a face that was dead serious, never laughed.2. Sometimes old Jules, or his son Lazarus, would get mixed up in a Saturday-night brawl…Sometimes old Jules, or his son Lazarus, would get involved in a rough, noisy quarrel or fight on a Saturday night after much drinks of liquor.3. … her attendance had always been sporadic and her interest in schoolwork negligible.She often missed her classes and had little interest in schoolwork.4. …she existed for me only as a vaguely embarrassing presence…I only knew her as someone who would make other people feel ill at ease because of the way she looked, spoke and behaved.5. She dwelt and moved somewhere within my scope of vision.She lived and moved somewhere within my range of sight. But I paid little attention to her: she was almost invisible for me.6. Grandmother Macleod and Piquette, Piquette would win hands down, nits or not.If my mother had to make a choice between Grandmother Macleod Piquette, she would certainly choose the latter without hesitation, no matter whether the latter had the nits or not.7. My acquaintance with Indians was not extensive.I didn’t know many Indians.8. …she remained both a reproach and a mystery to me.I blame myself ( for being unable to make Piquette’s response warmer) and the same time found her mysterious9. Her defiant face, momentarily, became unguarded and unmasked, and in her eyes there was a terrifying hope. Normally, she was defensive and sensitive as if her face were guarded and marked. But in a brief moment when she was saying this, there was an expression of defiance on her face, which was her true emotion. In her eyes there was a kind of hope which was so intense and violent that it stuck people as terrifying.10. …she looked a mess, to tell you the truth, a real slattern, dress any old how…She looked very messy, dirty and untidy, dressed in a very careless way.11. She was up in court a couple of times --- drunk and disorderly, of course.She was taken to court a couple of times because she was drunk and disorderly as one could expect.12. The one store had become several dozen, and the settlement had all the attributes of a flourishing resort --- hotels, a dance-hall, cafés with noen signs, the penetrating odours of potato chips and hot dogs.There had been only one store in the past, but now there were several dozen stores. The settlement had all the characteristics of a flourishing resort such as hotels, a dance-hall, cafes lighted by neon signs, the strong smells of potato chips and hot dogs.13. Perhaps they had been unable to find such a place, and had simply died out, having ceased to care any longer whether they lived or not.Perhaps they had failed to find a suitable habitat where they could belong and had simply died out, having lost any interest in life and ceased to care any longer whether they lived or not.Lesson 9 Translation1.Just below Manawaka, where the Wachakwa River ran brown and noisy over the pebbles, the scrub oak and gray-green willow and chokecherry bushes grew in a dense thicket.马纳瓦卡山下有一条名叫瓦恰科瓦的小河,浑浊的河水咆哮着,冲打着河边的鹅卵石。

The Review of Advanced English (Book 1)一、修辞(rhetoric)Ⅰ. 修辞手法:1)明喻(simile)是以两种具有相同特征的事物和现象进行对比,表明本体和喻体之间的相似关系,两者都在对比中出现。

常用比喻词like, as, as if, as though等。

2)隐喻(metaphor)这种比喻不用比喻词进行,而直接将甲事物当作乙事物来描写,甲乙两事物之间的联系和相似之处是暗含的。

3)提喻(synecdoche)又称举隅法,主要特点是局部代表全体,或以全体喻指部分,或以抽象代具体,或以具体代抽象。

[用部分代整体,有隶属关系]4)借代(metonymy)是指两种不同事物并不相似,但又密不可分,因而常用其中一种事物名称代替另一种。

[用部分代整体,非隶属关系]5)拟人(personification)这种修辞方法是把人类的特点、特性加于外界事物之上,使之人格化,以物拟人,以达到彼此交融,合二为一。

6)叠言(rhetorical repetition)这种修辞法是指在特定的语境中,将相同的结构,相同意义词组成句子重叠使用,以增强语气和力量。

7)双关语(pun)是以一个词或词组,用巧妙的办法同时把互不关联的两种含义结合起来,以取得一种诙谐有趣的效果。

8)拟声(onomatopoeia)是摹仿自然界中非语言的声音,其发音和所描写的事物的声音很相似,使语言显得生动,富有表现力。

9)讽刺(irony)是指用含蓄的褒义词语来表示其反面的意义,从而达到使本义更加幽默,更加讽刺的效果。

10)通感(synesthesia)是指在某个感官所产生的感觉,转到另一个感官的心理感受。

11)alliteration(头韵):在文句中有两个以上连结在一起的词或词组,其开头的音节有同样的字母或声音,以增强语言的节奏感。

assonance(腹韵):相同或相近的元音在诗行中重复出现;consonance(假韵):两个以上词的词尾辅音完全一致,但其前面的元音不相同;the end rhyme(尾韵):诗行与诗行之间在末尾的压韵/ 尾韵/脚韵12)anadiplosis(联珠):将一个或一组单词重复多遍;anticlimax(突降法):也叫先扬后抑。

Reading Comprehension (20%)Read the following passages and mark the best answer to each of the following questions.Passage OneA wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. So, as a police officer, I have some urgent things to say to good people.Day after day my men and I struggle to hold back a tidal wave of crime. Something has gone terribly wrong with our once-proud American way of life. It has happened in the area of values. A key ingredient is disappearing and I think I know what it is: accountability.Accountability isn’t hard to define. It means that every person is responsible for his or her actions and liable for their consequences.Of the many values that hold civilization together——honesty, kindness, and so on——accountability may be the most important of all. Without it, there can be no respect, no trust, no law——and, ultimately, no society.My job as a police officer is to impose accountability on people who refuse, or have never learned, to impose it on themselves. But as every policeman knows, external controls on people’s behavior are far less effective than internal restraints such as sense of guilt, shame and embarrassment.Fortunately there are still communities——small towns, usually——where schools maintain disciplines and where parents hold up standards that proclaim: “In this family certain things are not tolerated——they simply are not done!”Yet more and more, especially in our larger cities and suburbs, these inner restraints are loosening. Your typical robber has none. He considers your property his property; he takes what he wants, including your life if you enrage him.The main cause of this breakdown is a radical shift in attitudes. Thirty years ago, if a crime was committed, society was considered the victim. Now, in a shocking reversal, it’s the criminal who is considered victimized: by his under-privileged upbringing, by the school that didn’t teach him to read, by the church that failed to teach him with moral guidance, by the parents who didn’t provide a stable home. I don’t believe it. Many others in equally disadvantaged circumstances choose not to engage in criminal activities. If we free the criminal, even partly, from accountability, we become a society of endless excuses where no one accepts responsibility for anything.We in America desperately need more people who believe that the person who commits a crime is the one responsible for it.1.We can learn from the first paragraph that it isA.certain that evil will prevail if good men do nothing about it.B.Natural for virtue to defeat evilC.Unnecessary for good people to do anything in face of evilD.Desirable for good men to keep away from evil2.According to the author, if a person is found guilty of a crimeA.modern civilization is responsible for itB.the standards of living should be improvedC.the criminal himself should bear the blameD.society is to be held responsiblepared with those in small towns, people in large cities haveA. less self-disciplineB. less effective governmentC. more mutual respectD. better sense of discipline4.The writer is sorry to have noticed thatA.people in large cities tend to excuse criminalsB.today’s society lacks sympathy for people in difficulty.C.People in disadvantaged circumstances are engaged in criminal activities.D.People in small towns still stick to old disciplines and standards.5.What is the main idea of the passage?A.more good examples should be set for people to follow.B.Stricter discipline should be maintained in schools and families.C.More restrictions should be imposed on people’s behavior.D.It is necessary for more people to accept the value of responsibility in order to defeatevil.Passage TwoYou have to have lived in the 1950s and 1960s to have experienced a good economy. In the period between 1950 and 1970 it was the rule——rather than the exception ——that an ordinary family, without higher education, could sustain itself decently on the income of a single breadwinner. In 1955, when I was 19 and living in Brooklyn, N.Y., my father, who had a sixth-grade education, maintained our family of five on a wage of $82 a week as a bookbinder. My mother taught us fairness and compassion; my father, discipline and enterprise.The U.S. economy in those years are good. Then where did this good economy go? It was inflated away. The price of gold, which I take as a proxy for the prices of all goods, was $35 an ounce in those years. It is at roughly ten times that price today.There is another answer, though: inflation caused the entire work force to be moved into higher tax groups, thus reducing after-tax purchasing power. That is, my father’s bindery job in 1954 paid $82 a week, with $80 after deductions; today, at $820 per week the net would be $662.To ordinary people, the economy doesn’t look very good at all. After-tax incomes continue to decrease in purchasing power. The jobs offered in the employment ads pay only a little more than the minimum wage. Maybe $5 an hour, which, after payroll deductions, yields $4 an hour. Compare that with minimum wage jobs of the early 1950s, when 75 cents was worth today’s $7.50 before and after taxes.6.In the author’s opinion, a good economy, to ordinary people can be expressed in terms ofA. the amount of wageB. after-tax incomeC. the actual purchasing powerD. the minimum wage per hour7.The worsening of a bookbinder’s livelihood results fromA.his low education and the amount of wageB.the high-taxation and the income deductionsC.the high taxation and cost of livingD.the low wage and higher prices8.The passage implies that while the cost of living is getting higherA.the value of labor actually is shrinkingB.the minimum wage level is increasing likewiseC.the income tax rate is rising alongD.the employment ads naturally offer a higher minimum wage9.The author’s tone in writing the article isA. ironicalB. subjectiveC. high-soundingD. convincing10.The article aims toA.help control the rapidly increasing pricesB.give some advice to the policy-makerC.impress the younger generation with some basic factsD.call upon the society’s attention against inflationⅤ.
