Rock music was a sociological expression rather than a musical force . It embodied the frustrated teenage spirit of the 1950s.

Then they could get some balance in their minds .Another aspect is that the young people could make their ideas and beliefs known to the world through music . By music , they could show their felling and dreams . So all in all , young people combined invention and exaggeration ,reason and motion , word and sound , music and politics as a whole .Lesson Two Four Choices for Young PeopleA.Answer the following questions on the text :1.How do American young people look at the adult world in general ?2.What does “drop out “ mean ?

Maybe at the first glance it is not inviting . It lacks glamour . It has no quick result . It demands patience . It depends on the exasperating and uncertain instruments of persuasion and democratic decision making .I think the author is right . Reforming the world is a little like fighting a military campaign in the Apennines , as soon as you capture one mountain range, another one looms just ahead . The problems are the same , too. Once some problems are brought under some kind of rough control , new problems take place . So we can’t solve all the problems at a time . We have to deal with one problem each time and change the world gradually and steadily . So problems can be handled in the same way that hard problems have been coped with before –piecemeal , pragmatically ,by the dogged efforts of many people . so I think in this particular time and place the fourthchoice offers a better chance for remedying some of the world ‘s outrages than any other available starategy .Lesson Three The Use of ForceBy William Carlos WilliamsA.Answer the following questions on the text :1.why wasn’t the sick child in bed ?2.why were the girl’s parents eyeing the doctor up and down distrustfully ?3.What made the girl refuse to open her mouth to the doctor ?4.Why did the doctor insist on examining her throat ?5.Why was the doctor not able to see her throat since he already had the wooden tongue depressor into her mouth ?6.How did the doctor finally g et see the girl’s throat ?7.Did the girl’s physical beauty have anything to do with the outcome of the incident ?Explain .8.Can you find any fault with the doctor’s behavior?Key A,1.Because it was damp there .2.Because they were the new patients to him and they were nervous .3.She didn’t want others to know that her tonsils were covered with membrane.4.Because the doctor took a trial shot that the girl might have diphtheria.5.Because she gripped the wooden blade between her molars and did n’t open her mouth to let the doctor have a look .6.The doctor overpowered the child’s neck and jaws , forced the heavy silver spoon back of her teeth and down her throat till she gagged .7.Yes , it did .

Give brief answers to the following questions, using your own words as much as possible:1) In real life what kind of woman is the mother2) What kind of woman would Dee like her mother to be?3) How does the mother act when she meets a strange white man?4) What kind of girl is Maggie?5) Why do you think colored people asked fewer questions in 1927?6) Why does the mother say Dee will never bring her friends to visit them? What does this tell about Dee? Give other instances to prove your point.7) Why did Dee want the quilt so much?8) Why did Maggie want the quilt?9) Why did Dee visit her mother and sister?10) What is the mother’s feeling toward Dee? How is it changed in the course of the story?11) What is implied by the subtitle ‘ for your grandmama’’?II. Paraphrase:1) She thinks her sister has held life always in the palm of one hand2)”no” is a word the world never learned to say to her3) Johnny Carson has much to do to keep up with my quick and witty tongue.4) It seems to me I have talked to them always with one foot raised in flight5) She washed us in a river of make-believe6) Burned us with a lot of knowledge we didn’t necessarily need to know7) Like good looks and money, quickness passed her by.8) A dress to the ground, in this hot weather.9) You can see me trying to move a second or two before I make it.10) Anyhow, he soon gives up on Maggie.11) Though, in fact, I probably could have carried it back beyond the Civil War through the branches.12) Every once in a while he and Wangero sent eye signals over my head.13) Less than that.14) This was the way she knew God to work.III. Translate the following into Chinese:1) In real life I am a large, big-boned woman with rough, man-working hands. In the winter I wear flannel nightgowns to bed and overalls during the day. I can kill and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man. My fat keeps me hot in zero weather. I can work outside all day, breaking ice to get water for washing; I can eat pork liver cooked over the open fire minutes after it comes steaming from the hog. One winter I knocked a bull calf straight in the brain between the eyes with a sledge hammer and had the meat hung up to chill before nightfall. But of course all this does hot show on television. I am the way my daughter would want me to be: a hundred pounds lighter, my skin like an uncooked barley pancake. My hair glistens in the hot bright lights. Johnny Carson has much to do to keep up with my quick and witty tongue.2) But that is a mistake. I know even before I wake up.Who ever knew a Johnson with a quick tongue? Who can even imagine me looking a strange white man in the eye? It seems to me I have talked to them always with one foot raised in flight, withmy head turned in whichever way is farthest from them. Dee, though. She would always look anyone in the eye, Hesitation was no part of her nature.3) I used to think she hated Maggie, too. But that was be-fore we raised the money, the church and me, to send her to Augusta to school. She used to read to us without pity; forcing words, lies, other folks’ habits, whole lives upon us two, sitting trapped and ignorant underneath her voice. She washed us in a river of make-believe, burned us with a lot of knowledge we didn’t necessarily need to know. Pressed us to her with the serious way she read, to shove us away at just the moment, like dimwits, we seemed about to understand.4) I never had an education myself. After second grade the school was closed down. Don’t ask me why: in 1927 colored asked fewer questions than they do now. Sometimes Maggie reads to me. She stumbles along good-naturedly but can’t see well. She knows she is not bright. Like good looks and money, quickness passed her by. She will marry John Thomas (who has mossy teeth in an earnest face) and then I’ll be free to sit here and I guess just sing church songs to myself. Although I never was a good singer. Never could carry a tune. I was always better at a man’s job. I used to l ove to milk till I was hooked in the side in ‘49.

高级英语课后习题答案Everyday Use for Your GrandmamaI. Give brief answers to the following questions, using your own words as much as possible:1) In real life what kind of woman is the mother2) What kind of woman would Dee like her mother to be?3) How does the mother act when she meets a strange white man?4) What kind of girl is Maggie?5) Why do you think colored people asked fewer questions in 1927?6) Why does the mother say Dee will never bring her friends to visit them? What does this tell about Dee? Give other instances to prove your point.7) Why did Dee want the quilt so much?8) Why did Maggie want the quilt?9) Why did Dee visit her mother and sister?10) What is the mother’s feelin g toward Dee? How is it changed in the c ourse of the story?11) What is implied by the subtitle ‘ for your grandmama’’?II. Paraphrase:1) She thinks her sister has held life always in the palm of one hand2)”no” is a word the world never learned to say t o her3) Johnny Carson has much to do to keep up with my quick and witty tongue.4) It seems to me I have talked to them always with one foot raised in flight5) She washed us in a river of make-believe6) Burned us with a lot of knowledge we didn’t necessarily need to know7) Like good looks and money, quickness passed her by.8) A dress to the ground, in this hot weather.9) You can see me trying to move a second or two before I make it.10) Anyhow, he soon gives up on Maggie.11) Though, in fact, I probably could have carried it back beyond the Civil War through the branches.12) Every once in a while he and Wangero sent eye signals over my head.13) Less than that.14) This was the way she knew God to work.III. Translate the following into Chinese:1) In real life I am a large, big-boned woman with rough, man-working hands. In the winter I wear flannel nightgowns to bed and overalls during the day. I can kill and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man. My fat keeps me hot in zero weather.I can work outside all day, breaking ice to get water for washing; I can eat pork liver cooked over the open fire minutes after it comes steaming from the hog. One winter I knocked a bull calf straight in the brain between the eyes with a sledge hammer and had the meat hung up to chill before nightfall. But of course all this does hot show on television. I am the way my daughter would want me to be: a hundred pounds lighter, my skin like an uncooked barley pancake. My hair glistens in the hot bright lights. Johnny Carson has much to do to keep up with my quick and witty tongue.2) But that is a mistake. I know even before I wake up.Whoever knew a Johnson with a quick tongue? Who can even imagine me looking a strange white man in the eye? It seems to me I have talked to them always with one foot raised in flight, with my head turned in whichever way is farthest from them. Dee, though. She would always look anyone in the eye, Hesitation was no part of her nature.3) I used to think she hated Maggie, too. But that was be-fore we raised the money, the church and me, to send her to Augusta to school. She used to read to us without pity; forcing words, lies, other folks’ habits, whole lives upon us two, sitting trapped and ignorant underneath her voice. She washed us in a river of make-believe, burned us with a lot of knowledge we didn’t necessarily need toknow. Pressed us to her with the serious way she read, to shove us away at just the moment, like dimwits, we seemed about to understand.4) I never had an education myself. After second grade the school was closed down. Don’t ask me why: in 1927 colored asked fewer questions than they do now. Sometimes Maggie reads to me. She stumbles along good-naturedly but can’t see well. She knows she is not bright. Like good looks and money, quickness passed her by. She will marry John Thomas (who has mossy teeth in an earnest face) and then I’ll be free to sit here and I guess just sing church songs to myself. Although I never was a good singer. Never could carry a tune. I was alway s better at a man’s job.I used to love to milk till I was hooked in the side in ‘49. Cows are soothing and slow and don’t bother you, unless you try to milk them the wrong way.IV.
