IV. Written Work
Describe how the Nightingale built a red rose out of music in about 150 words.
Sample:
Unit 1 Your college years 1你可曾考虑过作为一个大学生你生活中正在发生和即将发生的变化？你可曾想到过大学时代教授们以及其他教职工为了你的成长和发展制定了目标？你可曾注意过你在从青少年渐渐成人的过程中会发生某些变化？尽管大学生很少想这些，但是在大学生时代很可能会发生一些主要的变化。 2在这段时期，学生们正经受自我认同危机，他们努力要了解自己的身份，掌握自身的优缺点。当然，优缺点他们兼而有之，且两者都为数不少。重要的是人们如何看待自己，其他人又如何看待他们。皮尔斯和兰多曾在一篇文章中探讨了爱立信在《国际社会百科全书》中有关理论，根据他们的观点，性格特征是由先天基因（即父母的遗传物质）所决定，由外部环境而形成，并受偶然事件的影响的。人们受环境的影响，反过来也影响他们的环境。人们如何看待自己扮演的这两个角色无疑正是他们性格特征的部分表现。 3学生们经历自我认同危机的时候，他们也开始渐渐独立，但是可能仍然非常依赖父母。这种介于独立与依赖之间的冲突常常发生在青少年末期。事实上，这种冲突很可能因为他们选择继续接受大学教育而愈发激烈。高中一毕业，一些学生便会立即走入社会开始工作。这种选择的结果就是他们可能他们在经济上获得独立。但是大学生已经选择了用几年的时间继续掌握新知并且发展自我，因此他们在一定程度上还要依赖父母。 41984年4月杰利弗·A·霍夫曼在《心理咨询杂志》上发表了《即将成人的青年与父母的心理距离》，文章中他提及了人与父母产生心理距离的四个不同方面。第一，独立处理日常生活的能力，它包括个人独立处理实际事物和自身事务的能力，如理财的能力、选购服装的能力和决定每天工作日程的能力。第二，态度独立，即个人学会正确看待和接受自己与父母的态度、价值和信仰上的差异。第三个心理分离过程是情感独立，霍夫曼将这一过程定义为“摆脱父母的认可、亲近、陪伴和情感支持的过分依赖”。例如，大学生们会随自己所愿自由选择专业，而且并不认为必须征得父母的认同。第四是摆脱“对父母的过度内疚、焦虑、疑惑、责任、反感和愤怒的心理”。大学生们需要退一步看清自己在介于独立与依赖之间的冲突中所处的位置。 5可能大学生们面临的最紧张的问题之一就是构建自己的性别特征，这包括与异性之间的关系和对未来自身男性或女性角色的设计。每个人必须将其性格特征定义为男性或女性角色。这一过程中兴奋与受挫并存。也许没有什么比恋爱更能让学生们情绪低落或高涨的。例如，我曾经和一位年轻的大学生共事，一次他欢呼雀跃的进了我的办公室，面带笑容，声音激动。年轻人宣布：“我刚度过了人生中最灿烂的一天。”他继续解释他是如何与一位超凡脱俗的女子相遇的，而且这份浪漫的爱情与他梦中所期待的完全一致。而不倒一个星期，同一个年轻人却拖着脚步神情沮丧的进了我的办公室。他在同一张椅子上坐下来，深深地叹了口气，宣布说：“我经历了人生中最糟糕的一天。”他和那个年轻女子刚刚吵过架，两人的关系不再看好。因而，大学生们与异性交往的方式对他们的情感必定有所影响。 6于此同时，这些刚刚成年的大学生也在学习如何在成年人的世界里奉献和收获情感。在这一角度上，成长不仅要处理与异性之间的关系，还要处理与两性及所有年龄段的朋友之间的关系。随着他们渐渐成人，他们与异性交往的方式也在发生变化。这时作为成年人他们应该思索如何与同龄人和睦相处并有礼有节，如何与他们生活中的青少年儿童和睦相处，如何与他们的父母和睦相处并表达自己的感情。举个我在西南浸礼教会学院读研究生时的例子，当我刚刚修完一门咨询课程后，我去探望父母。在学习这门课的过程中我渐渐意识到，当我的世界不断扩展，新的机遇不断出现时，我的父亲，一个年过花甲之人，正在亲眼目睹自己的世界在变小，选择在变少。在家的那些日子里，我和父亲几次谈心，共同探讨了我课程的内容以及它如何应用到我的生活中。我发觉自己正以一种不同的方式看待父亲，并且把他看作一个我可以鼓励的朋友。我有意识的去鼓励这个从前鼓励过我的人。我在以一种不同的方式与父亲交流。 7大学生的另一个变化就是内化他们的宗教信仰、价值尺度和道德观念。从出生开始，就有一位或更多的父母成为他们的榜样，教给他们特定的信仰、价值和道德。然而，当他们到了青春期，这些问题却遭到了质疑，在一些情况下甚至遭到了反叛。现在他们刚刚成年，他们有机会为自己决定人生中将会如何选择何种信仰、价值和道德。60年代末，一位生活在极度歧视其他种族的环境中的年轻女子深信自己种族的
Oscar Wilde 1 "She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses," cried the young Student; "but in all my garden there is no red rose." 2 From her nest in the holm-oak tree the Nightingale heard him, and she looked out through the leaves, and wondered. 3 "No red rose in all my garden!" he cried, and his beautiful eyes filled with tears. "Ah, on what little things does happiness depend! I have read all that the wise men have written, and all the secrets of philosophy are mine, yet for want of a red rose is my life made wretched." 4 "Here at last is a true lover," said the Nightingale. "Night after night have I sung of him, though I knew him not: night after night have I told his story to the stars, and now I see him. His hair is dark as the hyacinth-blossom, and his lips are red as the rose of his desire; but passion has made his face like pale ivory, and sorrow has set her seal upon his brow." 5 "The Prince gives a ball tomorrow night," murmured the young Student, "and my love will be of the company. If I bring her a red rose she will dance with me till dawn. If I bring her a red rose, I shall hold her in my arms, and she will lean her head upon my shoulder, and her hand will be clasped in mine. But there is no red rose in my garden, so I shall sit lonely, and she will pass me by. She will have no heed of me, and my heart will break." 6 "Here indeed is the true lover," said the Nightingale. "What I sing of, he suffers - what is joy to me, to him is pain. Surely Love is a wonderful thing. It is more precious than emeralds, and dearer than fine opals. Pearls and pomegranates cannot buy it, nor is it set forth in the marketplace. It may not be purchased of the merchants, nor can it be weighed out in the balance for gold." 7 "The musicians will sit in their gallery," said the young Student, "and play

夜莺与玫瑰 有一个男孩喜欢一个女孩，他想邀请女孩与他共舞。 女孩说："给我一支红玫瑰，我就与你共舞。" 笨笨的男孩不知道这里没有红玫瑰，他便慢慢地找。 一只夜莺被男孩感动了，它用自己的鲜血染红了一支白玫瑰。 男孩看到了红玫瑰，心里很激动。 他找到了女孩，对女孩说："我找到红玫瑰了，请与我共舞。" 女孩一脸嫌弃地说："红玫瑰算什么，珠宝都好过它了。" 男孩一脸疑惑，周围的人告诉他，女孩已经嫁人了，是一个比她大20岁的富豪，拥有了无数的金银财宝。 男孩回到了故乡，拿起家里的书读了起来，终于成了一名着名的戏剧家。 而女孩却被一帮盗贼杀了，因为无数的金银财宝。她死时十分丑陋，抱着钱躺在地上。 美好的一切都只停留在了一朵红玫瑰上，一朵由夜莺的鲜血所染红的白玫瑰。 一年级:方加圆

The Nightingale and the Rose 夜莺与玫瑰 Oscar Wilde 1"She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses," cried the young Student; "but in all my garden there is no red rose." “她说过，只要我送她红玫瑰，她便会当我的舞伴。”那个年轻人嗟怨着，“但整个花园中就独独少了那么一朵红玫瑰啊。” 2From her nest in the holm-oak tree the Nightingale heard him, and she looked out through the leaves, and wondered. 一只在栎树上筑巢起居的夜莺听到年轻人的嗟叹，好奇地从树叶缝里张看。 3"No red rose in all my garden!" he cried, and his beautiful eyes filled with tears. "Ah, on what little things does happiness depend! I have read all that the wise men have written, and all the secrets of philosophy are mine, yet for want of a red rose is my life made wretched." 年轻人继续叹道：“独独少了那么一朵红玫瑰！”泪水此刻充盈他双眼，“告诉我，所谓幸福，究竟是什么！读懂了孔孟之道，探讨过生与死的奥秘又如何？就是独独少了那么一朵红玫瑰，我的人生完全是悲哀的！” 4"Here at last is a true lover," said the Nightingale. "Night after night have I sung of him, though I knew him not: night after night have I told his story to the stars, and now I see him. His hair is dark as the hyacinth-blossom, and his lips are red as the rose of his desire; but passion has made his face like pale ivory, and sorrow has set her seal upon his brow." “真正懂得去爱的人，看来我终于找到了，”夜莺自语，“为了找到明白爱之真缔的人，我夜夜高唱。就算我不知道去哪里寻，我还是为他高唱。每一晚每一晚，与星星对话，编造真爱的故事，为的是找到一个真正懂爱的人。现在，他就在这里。啊，乌黑的发丝，风信子一般的；啊，红润的嘴唇，红玫瑰一般的。然而看啊，他内心的炽热反倒让他的脸苍白无血色；他的忧伤感觉更使他眉梢紧锁。” 5"The Prince gives a ball tomorrow night," murmured the young Student, "and my love will be of the company. If I bring her a red rose she will dance with me till dawn. If I bring her a red rose, I shall hold her in my arms, and she will lean her head upon my shoulder, and her hand will be clasped in mine. But there is no red rose in my garden, so I shall sit lonely, and she will pass me by. She will have no heed of me, and my heart will break." “明天晚上，王子舞会上，”年轻人还是在自怨自艾，“我爱的人会如期前往。假使我送她红玫瑰，她便成了我一夜的舞伴；假使我送她红玫瑰，我便一手把她抱住，她也会把头落在我的肩上，她的手牵着我的手。不过，独独少了那么一朵红玫瑰，我只好一夜独坐，就算与她擦身而过，也只会失之交臂。心，很痛！”

Michael Welzenbach 1. When I was 12 years old, my family moved to England, the fourth major move in my short life. My father’s government job demanded that he go overseas every few years, so I was used to wrenching myself away from friends. 2. We rented an 18th-century farmhouse in Berkshire. Nearby were ancient castles and churches. Loving nature, however, I was most delighted by the endless patchwork of farms and woodland that surrounded our house. In the deep woods that verged against our back fence, a network of paths led almost everywhere, and pheasants rocketed off into the dense laurels ahead as you walked. 3. I spent most of my time roaming the woods and fields alone, playing Robin Hood, daydreaming, collecting bugs and bird-watching. It was heaven for a boy —but a lonely heaven. Keeping to myself was my way of not forming attachments that I would only have to abandon

【最新】夜莺与玫瑰读后感（一） >讲述的是一个美丽而忧伤的故事:一个年轻人非常想同自己心爱的人一起跳舞,而她曾经答应过,只要他送她一朵红蔷薇,她就会同他跳舞.于是年轻人四处寻找.可是找遍了整个花园也没找到一朵,他心碎地哭了.夜莺知道了学生的烦恼,决心帮助学生.她用自己的胸脯抵着蔷薇刺,在月光下唱歌.蔷薇刺着她的心,她的歌声越来越高昂,最后蔷薇被她的血染红,而夜莺也死在高高的青草丛中.当年轻人发现那朵由夜莺心血染红的蔷薇,便拿着它送给他心爱的人.可是她却不再欣赏.而是更愿意跟送她珠宝的上校好.年轻人由失望.痛苦至愤怒,将蔷薇丢进了路沟,一个车轮碾过了美丽的花学生不再相信爱情. 一个残酷的童话,由洁净清新的语言表现出来,让人感受到的是,对人生,对世界的思考以及由思考带来的淡淡的忧伤. 我到底找到一个忠诚的情人,每夜我都在歌唱忠贞的爱情,可是我从来没有见过忠诚的情人.每夜我对星星讲述忠贞的爱情故事现在我终于看到了一个忠诚的情人! 我只求你做一件事,就是要你做一个忠诚的情人. 夜莺把胸脯抵在蔷薇树的一根刺上为树唱一夜的歌,这根刺将刺穿她的心,她生命的血也一定要流进树的身体变成树的血.这样痛苦的牺牲,换来一朵比鲜血还要红的蔷薇,可是她却义无反顾地靠了上去.只因为她相信爱情比生命更可贵,比博学更聪明,比权利更强大.所以她无悔. 可是,那朵蔷薇最终的结局,却是少女的一句它和我的衣服不相配,上校已经送给我很多漂亮珠宝,我要去和他跳舞,谁都知道,宝石比花更值钱 .于是它被扔到了路沟,被车轮碾过. 整个故事里,相信爱情的也许自始至终都只有夜莺一个.她坚信,最可贵的爱情是忠诚的.她之所以愿意为了帮助年轻人而付出自己的生命,是因为她希望且相信年轻人对爱情忠诚. 不管哲学是怎样的聪明,爱情却比她更聪明,不管权力怎样
