Spencer is old,sickly,and p retenti ously pathetic.I n the lecture he gives Holden,he is blunt,sarcastic and s ometi m es up set about Holden’s future.I n marked contrast t o M r.Ant olini’s sy mpathetic understanding of Holden’s conditi on,allM r.Spence can do is t o un2 derline the head master’s observati on that life is a ga me and must be p layed according t o the rules.And,what is worse,M r.Spencer was even disgusting and cruel when he forces Holden t o read his exa m essay that gets a l ow mark about Egyp tians in s p ite of that Holden is s o e mbarrassed t o be laughed at by his hist ory teacher in his face.M r.Spencer is s o indifferent that he can never be a hel pful guide t o lead Holden t o get hi m self back.Perhap s his parting cry:“Good luck!”s ounds s o terrible t o Holden because taken literally it puts the outcome of Holden’s quest wholly on the level of chance,whereas what Holden is s o des peratelyis a p lan whereby he can contr ol his life.So,after Holden leavesM r.Spencer’s house,he is even more dep ressed.For the significance of their meeting,John C.Unrue su mmarizes it in this way:Their meeting has an i m portant functi on.It sho ws the first of several failed atte mp ts by potential adults guides t o understand Holden,t o gain his confidence and res pect,s o t o gain his trust.Spencer fails for the sa me reas on other adults fail:his advice is inauthent2 ic,stale,lacking in s pontaneity and t oo far re moved fr om its ins p iring essence t o res onate with Holden(Un2 rue,2001:106).After Holden’s search f or a catcher of hi m self fails,his idea changes subtly.Since he can’t find a trust w orthy adult,he assu mes the task of catching other children hi m self.W hen Holden goes back ho me t o see Phoebe,he tells her his drea m of being a catcher:“Any way,I keep p icturing these kids p laying s ome ga me in this big field of rye and all.Thousands of little kids,and nobody’s ar ound—nobody big,I mean—excep t me.And I’m standing on the edge ofs ome crazy cliff.W hat I have t o do,I have t o catch everybody if they started t o go over the cliff—Imean if they’re running and they don’t l ook where they’re go2 ing I have t o come out fr om s o me where and catch the m.That’s all I’d do all day.I’d just be a catcher in the rye and all.I know it’s crazy,but that’s the only thing I’d really like t o do.I know it’s crazy”(173).Fr om Holden’s own words,we know that like any other adolescent,once his cry for hel p gets no re2 s ponse,once his drea m of finding a guide is frustrated, this br oken drea m can lead t o a reacti on for mati on, that is,t o the creati on of an opposite wish.The wish of being caught has been rep laced by a wish of catching others.So Holden sinks his fantasy of being a catcher. W hen Holden is on his way t o the record st ore,in the street,he finds a little kid:“There was one nice thing.This fa m ily that you could tell just ca me out of s ome years old.They l ooked s ort of poor.—He(The father)and his wife were just walking al ong,talking not paying any attenti on t o their kid.The kid was s well.He was walking in the street, instead of on the side walk,but next t o the curb.He was making out like he was walking a very straight line,the way kids do,and the whole ti m e he kep t say2 ing and humm ing.I got up cl oser s o I could hear what he was singing.He was singing that s ong,“I f a body catch a body com ing thr ough the rye.”He had a p retty little voice,t oo.He was just singing f or the hell of it, you could tell.The cars z oomed by,brakes screeched all over the p lace,his parents paid no attenti on t o hi m,and he kep t on waling next t o the curb and sing2 ing“I f a body catch a body com ing thr ough the rye.”It made me feel better.It made me feel not s o de2 p ressed any more(114).Fr om this scene,we can see Holden is ins p ired by the kid’s s ong very much.First,Holden adm its that he feels“nice”about the p icture of the fa m ily, the kid is“s well”and“It made me feel better and not s o dep ressed any more”;second,fr om the later dia2 l ogue of Holden with Phoebe in their apart m ent,we see that Holden deliberately m isunderstands the s ong,he thinks the kid is singing“if a body catch a body47L I TERAT URE D iW enjie,Gao Ruixia/The Catcher in the R ye—An I nitiati on Talecom ing thr ough the rye”but Phoebe tells hi m that should be“if a body meet a body com ing thr ough the rye”.Holden still sticks t o his own mani pulated under2 standing“I thought it was I f a body catches a body com ing thr ough the rye’.”The reas on for Holden’s deliberate m isunderstanding is that Holden is eager t o gras p an excuse f or hi m t o be a catcher,s o he can do s omething t o save the gr owing kids who are in danger of running off the cliff,because,now he has started t o doubt the adults’ability of p r otecting the kids resulted fr om M r.Spencer’s bad exa mp le.And s o,when Holden sees t w o kids sitting on the seesa w,one of the m a little fat,he rashes t o offer a hand t o balance the seesa w.However,they refuse his hel p.The i m per2 fecti on in the seesa w ga me is just the i m perfecti on of life,of s ociety,and of reality.You can do nothing a2 bout it,and more i m portant,you needn’t do anything t o change it.That’s the truth of life,of existence.So later when Phoebe tells Holden in their apart m ent that the right s ong should be:if a body meets a body com ing thr ough the rye,we realize that in fact Phoebe is telling Holden that his drea m of being a catcher is just his Quixotic i m aginati on,it is not p ractical.The frustrati on of his drea m made Holden even more de2 p ressed.Then we see Holden’s ep i phany in the z oo when Phoebe was riding on the car ousel r ound and r ound:“A ll the kids kep t trying t o grab f or the g old ring, and s o was old Phoebe,and Iwas s ort of afraid she’d fall off the godda m horse,but I didn’t say anything or do anything.The thing with kids is,if they want t o grab f or the gold ring,you have t o let the m do it,notsay anything,I f they fall off,they fall off,but it’s bad if you say anything t o the m(211)”.Now Holden’s voice and observati on is fr om an elder pers on.W ith such a wareness,he feels j oyful:“I felt s o da mn happy all of a sudden,the way old Phoebe kep t going ar ound and ar ound.Iwas da mn near ba wling,I felt s o da mn happy,if you want t o know the truth.I don’t know why.It was just that she l ooked s o da mn nice,the way she kep t going ar ound and ar ound,in her blue coat and all.God,Iwish you could’ve been there(213)”.Fr om now on,Holden’s r ole has changed,t oo. Finally,Holden realizes that compared with Phoebe, he has already gr own up.Now,as an adult,it’s he who should p r otect Phoebe and watch her in case she would have“fallen off”.But,on the other hand, Holden als o recognized clearly that he cannot p r otect Phoebe any l onger.Phoebe will eventually gr ow up, will gr ow int o an adult t oo.She must live the life by herself;she must try t o experience all kinds of j oy and s orr ow,t o enj oy the happ iness of life and als o t o suffer the m isery of it.He’d better“let the m do it,and not say anything.”Only in this way,can a child become mature.Once Holden has such a wareness,Holden has finished his p r ocess of initiati on.【References】[1]Salinger,J.D.The Catcher in the Rye[M].Bost on:L ittle,B r own and Company,1951.[2]T om ing.A H istory of Am erican L iterature[M].Nanjing:Yi2lin Press,2002.[3]Unrue,John C,ed.L iterary M asterpieces.V olum e1:TheCatcher in the rye[M].Detr oit:Gale Gr oup,2001.《麦田里的守望者》,一个关于“入世”的故事邸文洁1,高瑞霞2(11内蒙古科技大学文学院;21包头医学院,内蒙古包头014300)[摘 要] 该论文通过从小说情节的角度分析霍顿的“自我认同”的心理发展过程来说明杰罗姆.塞林格的小说《麦田里的守望者》是一个关与“入世”的故事。

麦田守望者 1-2章概括 英文
Summary: Chapter 1Holden Caulfield writes his story from a rest home to which he has been sent for therapy. He refuses to talk about his early life, mentioning only that his brother D.B. is a Hollywood writer. He hints that he is bitter because D. B. has sold out to Hollywood, forsaking a career in serious literature for the wealth and fame of the movies. He then begins to tell the story of his breakdown, beginning with his departure from Pencey Prep, a famous school he attended in Agerstown, Pennsylvania.Holden’s career at Pencey Prep has been marred by his refusal to apply himself, and after failing four of his five subjects—he passed only English—he has been forbidden to return to the school after the fall term. The Saturday before Christmas vacation begins, Holden stands on Thomsen Hill overlooking the football field, where Pencey plays its annual grudge match against Saxon Hall. Holden has no interest in the game and hadn’t planned to watch it at all. He is the manager of the school’s fencing team and is supposed to be in New York for a meet, but he lost the team’s equipment on the subway, forcing everyone to return early.Holden is full of contempt for the prep school, but he looks for a way to “say goodbye” to it. He fondly remembers throwing a football with friends even after it grew dark outside. Holden walks away from the game to go say goodbye to Mr. Spencer, a former history teacher who is very old and ill with the flu. He sprints to Spencer’s house, but since he is a heavy smoker, he has to stop to catch his breath at the main gate. At the door, Spencer’s wife greets Holden warmly, and he goes in to see his teacher.Summary: Chapter 2“Life is a game, boy. Life is a game that one plays according to the rules.”(See Important Quotations Explained)Holden greets Mr. Spencer and his wife in a manner that suggests he is close to them. He is put off by his teacher’s rather decrepit condition but seems otherwise to respect him. In his sickroom, Spencer tries to lecture Holden about his academic failures. He confirms Pencey’s headmaster’s assertion that “[l]ife is a game” and tells Holden that he must learn to play by the rules. Although Spencer clearly feels affection for Holden, he bluntly reminds the boy that he flunked him, and even forces him to listen to the terrible essay he handed in about the ancient Egyptians. Finally, Spencer tries to convince Holden to think about his future. Not wanting to be lectured, Holden interrupts Spencer and leaves, returning to his dorm room before dinner.Analysis: Chapters 1–2Holden Caulfield is the protagonist of The Catcher in the Rye,and the mostimportant function of these early chapters is to establish the basics of his personality. From the beginning of the novel, Holden tells his story in a bitterly cynical voice. He refuses to discuss his early life, he says, because he is bored by “all that David Copperfield kind of crap.” He gives us a hint that something catastrophic has happened in his life, acknowledging that he writes from a rest home to tell about “this madman stuff” that happened to him around the previous Christmas, but he doesn’t yet go into specifics. The particularities of his story are in keeping with his cynicism and his boredom. He has failed out of school, and he leaves Spencer’s house abruptly because he does not enjoy being confronted by his actions.Beneath the surface of Holden’s tone and behavior runs a more idealistic, emotional current. He begins the story of his last day at Pencey Prep by telling how he stood at the top of Thomsen Hill, preparing to leave the school and trying to feel “some kind of a good-by.” He visits Spencer in Chapter 2 even though he failed Spencer’s history class, and he seems to respond to Mrs. Spencer’s kindness. What bothers him the most, in these chapters and throughout the book, is the hypocrisy and ugliness around him, which diminish the innocence and beauty of the external world—the unpleasantness of Spencer’s sickroom, for instance, and his hairless legs sticking out of his pajamas. Salinger thus treats his narrator as more than a mere portrait of a cynical postwar rich kid at an impersonal and pressure-filled boarding school. Even in these early chapters, Holden connects with life on a very idealistic level; he seems to feel its flaws so deeply that he tries to shield himself with a veneer of cynicism. The Catcher in the Rye is in many ways a book about the betrayal of innocence by the modern world; despite his bitter tone, Holden is an innocent searching desperately for a way to connect with the world around him that will not cause him pain. In these early chapters, the reader already begins to sense that Holden is not an entirely reliable narrator and that the reality of his situation is somehow different from the way he describes it. In part this is simply because Holden is a first-person narrator describing his own experiences from his own point of view. Any individual’s point of view, in any novel or story, is necessarily limited. The reader never forgets for a moment who is telling this story, because the tone, grammar, and diction are consistently those of an adolescent—albeit a highly intelligent and expressive one—and every event receives Holden’s distinctive commentary. However, Holden’s narrative contains inconsistencies that make us question what he says. For instance, Holden characterizes Spencer’s behavior throughout as vindictive and mean-spirited, but Spencer’s actions clearly seem to be motivated by concern for Holden’s well-being. Holden seems to be looking for reasons not to listen to Spencer.。

麦田守望者 13-15章概括 英文
Summary: Chapter 13Feeling like a coward for leaving Ernie’s, Holden walks the forty-one blocks from the nightclub back to the hotel. Along the way, he thinks about his gloves, which were stolen at Pencey. He imagines an elaborate confrontation with the unknown thief, but he acknowledges that he is a coward at heart, afraid of violence and confrontation. When he reaches the Edmont, he takes the elevator up to his room. The elevator operator offers to send him a prostitute for five dollars, and Holden, depressed and flustered, accepts. While waiting in his room, he again thinks about his cowardice, because he feels that his lack of aggression has prevented him from ever sleeping with a woman. Women, Holden believes, want a man who asserts power and control. As he broods, the prostitute, Sunny, arrives. She is a cynical young girl with a high voice. Holden becomes flustered, especially so when she removes her dress. She sits on his lap and tries to seduce him, but he is extremely nervous and tells her he is unable to have sex because he is recovering from an operation on his “clavichord.” He finally pays her the five dollars he owes and asks her to leave. She claims that the price is ten, but he refuses to pay her more, and she leaves in a huff.Summary: Chapter 14Holden sits in his hotel room and smokes for a while. He remembers an incident shortly before Allie’s death when he excluded Allie from a BB-gun game—he still feels guilty for having left Allie out. Eventually, he goes to bed. He feels like praying, but his distaste for organized religion prevents him from following through on his inclination. Suddenly, there is a knock at his door. In his pajamas, Holden opens the door to face the burly elevator operator, Maurice, who has returned with Sunny to collect the extra five dollars Sunny demanded. Holden tries to refuse, but Maurice pins him against a wall while Sunny takes the money from his wallet. Maurice snaps his finger into Holden’s groin, and Holden starts to insult him in response. Maurice slugs Holden in the stomach and leaves him crumpled on the floor. Holden imagines himself as a movie character, taking his revenge on Maurice after having been plugged in the gut with a gangster’s bullet. Finally, he manages to get into bed and go to sleep.Summary: Chapter 15The next morning, Holden calls Sally Hayes and makes a date with her for later that afternoon. He checks out of the hotel and leaves his bags in a locker at Grand Central Station. He worries about losing his money and mentions that his father frequently gets angry when Holden loses things. He also describes his mother a bit, noting that she “hasn’t felt too healthy since my brother Allie died.” Holden worries that the news of his expulsion will particularly distress his fragile mother, for whom he seems to care a great deal.Holden goes to eat breakfast at a little sandwich bar, where he meets two nunswho are moving to Manhattan to teach in a school. Holden thinks about the superficial money-driven world of the prep school he has just left. Then he talks to one of the nuns about Romeo and Juliet. Despite his earlier expression of distaste for organized religion, he forces them to take ten dollars as a charitable contribution. After they leave, although he realizes he needs money to pay for his date with Sally, he begins to regret having given only ten dollars. He concludes that money always makes people depressed.Analysis: Chapters 13–15During his previous expeditions around town, Holden maintained a distance from the people he was with, dismissing them with scorn. As a result, he was able to protect his vision of an ideal world: instead of dealing with real people and situations, he daydreams about Phoebe’s innocence and Jane’s warmth. Up to this point, Holden has been able to avoid a clash between his real and his ideal worlds, but in these chapters, the conflict becomes unavoidable, and Holden is caught in a moment of crisis and danger.Sunny represents another of Holden’s attempts at female companionship, but she could not be more different from the idealized Jane for whom Holden yearns. Whereas Holden’s relationship with Jane brought him emotional satisfaction, his relationship with a prostitute can only be superficial, sexual, and devoid of emotion. But Jane appears only in Holden’s memory, while the prostitute appears in his room. She concretizes Holden’s continual conflict, representing something he both wants and doesn’t want, something he needs yet fears.The tension between Holden’s growing sexuality and his fragile innocencegrows much stronger throughout this section. He wants to live in a beautiful world, but the pressure of his emerging sexuality and the demands of his loneliness compel him to enter into encounters with people like Maurice and Sunny. Such encounters are so far removed from the idealized encounters he fantasizes about that he departs from them much more hurt and wounded than before. Scared of the adult world, Holden clearly shies away from intimacy andis terrified of his burgeoning sexuality: he is too scared both to call Jane and to sleep with Sunny. He takes refuge in isolation, but this isolation only deepensthe pain of alienation and loneliness.While the harm Maurice and Sunny cause Holden is obvious, there are much more subtle reasons why his encounter with the nuns leaves him feeling hurt and wounded. Holden has constructed a simplistic divide between childhood, which he sees as innocent and good, and adulthood, which he finds superficial and evil. This worldview allows him to maintain his cynical barrier of defense: he is able to rationalize his loneliness by pretending that every adult around him is phony and annoying. In a way, Holden’s encounter with Maurice and Sunny helps Holden by reaffirming his understanding of a cruel and senseless adult world. But the nuns are kind, intelligent, and sympathetic. They don’t conform to his stereotypedunderstanding of organized religion, nor do they seem to have the phoniness that Holden expects of anything institutionalized. He is surprised that one nun loves Romeo and Juliet and that they can have a conversation about it.。
