Unit1-Text-A--Writing-for-Myself(ppt文档)
Step 2. Refer to the time words /phrases /clauses you have just circled and answer questions:
• Q1: When did Baker start talking about his new experience?
• Until the night before the essay was due
• When I finished
• Next morning
• Two days passed,
• When I saw him lift my paper from his desk..
•
● When Mr. Fleagle finished
So, "the third year in high school" (Para. 1) equals "the eleventh grade" (Para. 9).
2. What American teachers wear in school:
Nowadays, people in the U.S. love to dress casually. Even among those companies with a rigid dress code some now allow employees not to wear suits on Fridays. U.S. teachers wear fairly formal clothes to school, but not necessarily suits and ties. Bow ties are considered even more oldfashioned than ties.

全新版大学英语综合教程第1册课文原文
And he started to read. My words! He was reading my words out loud to the entire class. What's more, the entire class was listening. Listening attentively. Then somebody laughed, then the entire class was laughing, and not in contempt and ridicule, but with open-hearted enjoyment. Even Mr. Fleagle stopped two or three times to hold back a small prim smile.
When I finished it the night was half gone and there was no time left to compose a proper, respectable essay for Mr. Fleagle. There was no choice next morning but to turn in my tale of the Belleville supper. Two days passed before Mr. Fleagle returned the graded papers, and he returned everyone's but mine. I was preparing myself for a command to report to Mr. Fleagle immediately after school for discipline when I saw him lift my paper from his desk and knock for the class's attention.

汉译英（3x3分）1.1 Writing for Myself.5~65突然我就想描述那一切，描述当时那种温馨美好的气氛，但我把它写下来仅仅想自得其乐，而不是为弗利格尔先生而写。
那是我想重新捕捉并珍藏在心中的一个时刻。
我想重温那个夜晚的愉快。
然而，照我希望的那样去写，就会违反我在学校里学的正式作文的种种法则，弗利格尔先生也肯定会打它一个不及格。
没关系。
等我为自己写好了之后，我可以再为弗利格尔先生写点什么别的东西。
Suddenly I wanted to write about that, about the warmth and good feeling of it, but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy, not for Mr. Fleagle. It was a moment I wanted to recapture and hold for myself. I wanted to relive the pleasure of that evening. To write it as I wanted, however, would violate all the rules of formal composition I'd learned in school, and Mr. Fleagle would surely give it a failing grade. Never mind. I would write something else for Mr. Fleagle after I had written this thing for myself.6等我写完时已是半夜时分，再没时间为弗利格尔先生写一篇循规蹈矩、像模像样的文章了。
第二天上午，我别无选择，只好把我为自己而写的贝尔维尔晚餐的故事交了上去。
两天后弗利格尔先生发还批改过的作文，他把别人的都发了，就是没有我的。
