Gail's father, David, whom I had not yet met personally, approached our decision with a father-knows-best attitude. He basically asked the same questions as Gail's mother: "Why the haste? Who is this Mark? What's his citizenship status? " And when he learned of my problems with the citizenship department, he immediately suspected that I was marrying his daughter in order to remain in the United States.

大学英语精读Unit3 why i teach翻译
Unit3 Three:Why I Teach我为什么当老师Why I TeachPeter G. BeidlerWhy do you teach? My friend asked the question when I told him that I didn't want to be considered for an administrative position. He was puzzled that I did not want what was obviously a "step up" toward what all Americans are taught to want when they grow up: money and power. 你为什么要教书呢？当我告诉一位朋友我不想谋求行政职务时，他便向我提出这一问题。
所有美国人受的教育是长大成人后应该追求金钱和权力，而我却偏偏不选择明明是朝这个目标“迈进”的工作，他们对此感到迷惑不解。
Certainly I don't teach because teaching is easy for me. Teaching is the most difficult of the various ways I have attempted to earn my living: mechanic, carpenter, writer. For me, teaching is a red-eye, sweaty-palm, sinking-stomach profession. Red-eye, because I never feel ready to teach no matter how late I stay up preparing. Sweaty-palm, because I'm always nervous before I enter the classroom, sure that I will be found out for the fool that I am. Sinking-stomach, because I leave the classroom an hour later convinced that I was even more boring than usual. 当然，我之所以教书并不是因为我觉得教书轻松。

Let's see what happened and what we can learn from it.四. Language Points and Question for Discussion(一) Lines1--51. Language PointsI saw advertised in a local newspaper a teach ing post… = I saw a teaching post… advertised in a local newspapera) As the direct object "a teaching post" has a lengthy modifier, it needs to be postponed in order that the whole sentence has "end weight".E.g. We heard from his own lips the story of how he had been caught in a trap for days without food.I applied, fearing as I did so, that without a degree… my chances of getting the lob were slim.a) <structure> "Fearing… the job were slim" is adverbial, modifying "applied"; "That clause" is the object of "fear".; "as I did so" is adverbial clause, modifying "fearing".b) chances : possibility (when used in front of a sentence, it should be in pl. form.)E.g. Chances are that he has arrived w3ithout our knowledge.There is chance that he will win the game.2. Questions for Discussion(1) What information do you get from this paragraph?---We know the time the story took place, the way the author noticed the teaching postwas availableand the reasons he applied for it.(2) What does it mean "My chances of getting the job were slim"?---There was little likelihood that he could get this job.(3) Do you think it a wise decision to get a job before entering university?---It is a chance to come into contact with the workplace, to earn your pocket money, but it also takes up time that could be used for reading and studying.(二) Lines 6--101. Language Pointsa ten-minute bus ride = (it took) ten minutes to get there by busE.g. a 15-minute drive : a one-month training courseAs a result I arrived on a hot June morning too depressed to feel nervous. = Therefore when I got to the school on a hot morning in June I was in such low spirits that I did not and could not feel any anxiety of fear at all.2. Questions for Discussion(1) Why does this paragraph begin with "however"?---He has not expected to be asked for an interview.(2) What does it mean to be asked for an interview?---There is hope that one will get the jib.(3) What do you think may be the factors that make people feel depressed besides a long and awkward journey?---They may be spiritual, such as, difficulty, suffering, being homesick, frustration…They may be physical, such as, illness, hunger, tiredness, sleepiness…(三) Lines 11--131. Language Points…they struggled to survive the dust and the fumes from a busy main road. = …the evergreen shrubs tried hard to stay alive in the dust and fumes from a main road with very busy traffic.2. Questions for Discussion(1) What's the picture in your mind when you read the description of the school?---It's not a nice school. It is quite plain and in a very busy place.(2) What do you think are the favorable surroundings that a school should be in?---A school should be located in a quite and peaceful place away from pollution and distractions, with its building in pleasant surroundings, so that students can concentrate on and enjoytheir studies.( 四) Lines 14--281. Language PointsHe looked at me with an air of surprised disapproval. = He looked at me in disapproval that was mixed with surprise.…fixing me suddenly with his bloodshot eyes. = suddenly staring at me with eyes that were red from sleepless or heavy drinking.2. Questions for Discussion(1) How does the description of the headmaster's appearance and behavior, the inside of the school impress you?---Unpleasantly. It's poor, plain and dirty.(2) What do the "bloodshot eyes" remind you of?---Perhaps drinking, sleeping little, illness, etc.(3) Why did he respond by mumbling?---He felt uncertain whether his point of view appealed to the headmaster or not.(4) Why did the headmaster grunt?---He seemed dissatisfied with the boy's answer.(5) Do you think games are a vital part of children's education? Why or why not?---Scientific research has shown that playing games can stimulate children's imagination and make them active, and studying in games is a much more effective and suitable way to develop children's personality. On the other hand, nobody should be forced to play games if they are really not interested in them.( 五) Lines 29--381. Language PointsMost of my friends would be enjoying leisure at that time. = most of my friends would be free on Saturday afternoons, doing whatever they liked.2. Questions for Discussion(1) What do you think of the teaching set-up? Do you think it's normal?---In some villages in our country, it is still the case. It was caused by the poor conditions in the school, meanwhile it would challenge a teacher's abilities, skills and patience.(2) How do the children enjoy leisure?---Feel free, relax, do what they like to do, play, yell, etc.(六) Lines 39--431. Language PointsThis was the last straw. = This was really the worst coming to the worst and too much to put up with.2. Questions for Discussion(1) Was the salary negotiable?---No .

Summary Questions and Concluding Remarks1. Summary Questions(1) What was the procedure followed by the boy in looking for a jib?---a).He saw a teaching post advertised in a local newspaper.b).He wrote to the school to apply for the jib.c). The school wrote him back and asked him for an interview.d). During the interview , he was asked many questions, both personal and professional, and meanwhile, he learnt a lot about the school.e). He made his decision: to refuse the jib.(2) What factors helped to bring about the boy's refusal?---a) The school was very far away and it was inconvenient for him to get there.b)Its surroundings were dirty and noisy.c) The headmaster didn't make a good impression on him, and they had very little in common.d) The teaching set-up filled him with feat.e) He couldn't negotiate the salary offered by the school.f) The last reason was that he considered it an indignity to work under a woman.2. Concluding Remarks---This interview that took place in the story was a very peculiar one. In actual life, an interview is usually a two-way conversation. When you apply for a job, you must try to give the employer a good impression by writing a decent application letter and a full resume. If asked for an interview, you should mind your dress, manners and language. Meanwhile you should also pay attention to the job environment, working condition and the like to see if they are suitable for you.。
