(完整word版)高级英语(1)第三版 Lesson 3 Blackmail Paraphrase

Paraphrase1.The words spat forth with sudden savagery, all pretense of blandness gone.2.When they find who done that last night, who killed that kid an' its mother, then high-tailed it, they'll throw the book,and never mind who it hits, or whether they got fancy titles neither.3.The Duchess of Croydon – three centuries and a half of inbred arrogance behind her – did not yield easily.4.Even the self-assurance of Ogilvie flickered for an instant.5.The house detective took his time, leisurely puffing a cloud of blue cigar smoke, his eyes sardonically on theDuchess as if challenging her objection.6.There ain't much, out of the way, which people who stay in this hotel do, I don't get to hear about.7.The Duchess of Croydon kept firm, tight rein on her racing mind.8.And when they stopped for petrol, as they would have to, their speech and manner would betray them, making themconspicuous.9.There must be no mistake, no vacillation or dallying because of her own smallness of mind.参考答案1.Ogilvie spat out the words with great contempt and sudden rudeness, throwing away his pretended politeness.2.When they find who killed the mother and the kid and then ran away, they will deal out the maximum punishment,and they will not care who will be punished in this case or what their social position is.3.The Duchess was supported by her arrogance coming from parents of noble families who belonged to the nobilityfor more than three hundred years. So she did not give in easily.4.The Duchess was a good actress and she appeared so firm about their innocent that, for a brief moment, Ogilvie feltunsure if his assumption about them was right. But the moment was very short and passed quickly.5.The house detective was in no hurry. He enjoyed his cigar and puffed a cloud of blue cigar smoke in a relaxedmanner. At the same time, his eyes were fixed disdainfully on the Duchess as if openly daring her to object to his smoking a cigar, as she had done earlier.6.If anybody who stays in this hotel does anything wrong, improper or unusual, I always get to know about it. Thereisn’t much that can escape me.7.The Duchess kept firm and tight control of her mind which is working quickly. Here the Duchess is thinking quicklybut at the same time keeping her thoughts under control, not letting them run wild.8.And when they stopped for petrol, as it would be necessary, their speech and manner would reveal their identity.British English would be particularly noticeable in the south.9.She mustn’t make any mistakes in her plan, or waver in mind and show decision or deal with the situation carelesslydue to small mindedness. In other words, she has to take a big chance, to do something very daring, so she must be bold, resolute and decisive. She has to rise to the occasion.Translation1)不用着急慢慢来。

She had markson the sides of her nose which could only be made by eyeglasses. As no one wears glasses in bed, shecouldn't have identified a person 60 feet away at night without wearing glasses.3) If the boy had killed his father he wouldn't have gone back three hours later to get his knife.
