Lesson sixBlackmailThe First Period (3 hours)I. Teaching Objectivesintroduction to the excerptfrom the beginning to the second paragraph on page 97II. Difficult and important pointbackground knowledgestylistic meaning of English vocabularywords for psychological statedifficult sentencesIII. Classroom Activitiesexplaininganswering questionstranslatingDetaild Study of the Text1. The chief house officer, Ogilvie, who had declared he would…took twice that lime: The chief house officer, Ogilvie, gave the Croydons a mysterious telephone call telling them he would pay lit an hour later,but actually he appeared 81 their suite1) chief house officer: Hotels in the U. S. employ detectives to take care of hotel security, celled ‘house dicks’, dignified appellation—house officer.2) suite: a set of rooms. A suite in a hotel is usually expensive. The suite the Croydons are staying in is St. Gregory Hotel's largest and most elaborate, called the Presidential Suite, which has housed, according to the book, a succession of distinguished guests, including visiting presidents and royalty.3) cryptic telephone call: The message over the phone was brief and with mysterious implications.4) actually took twice that time: He was slow in coming because he wanted to create the impression that he was a busy and important man and to keep the Croydons on tenterhooks.2. the Duke: (in Britain) a nobleman, whose rank is just below that of a prince. Below the duke are the marquis, earl, viscount and baron.3. the Duchess: wife or widow of a duke, or a woman with a rank equal to that of duke4. the nerves of both the Duke and Duchesswere excessively frayed: the nerves of both the duke and duchess were worn out by the long wait, were over-strained. Both the Duke and Duchess were extremely nervous. More examples with the word fray:Clothes frayed at the neck, knees, etc.Frayed cuffs, button-holes, etcTempers become frayed.the muted buzzer: muted to render the noise of the bell less harsh and stridentshe had dispatched her maid on an invented errand: they sent her out to get her out of the way; the ‘errand’ being just an excuse, a trip which was not necessary. Obviously the talk between Ogilvie and the Croydons had to be kept a secret.the moon-faced male secretary: The use of male before secretary is to avoid possibility of the reader’s assuming otherwise, for is to avoid possibility Note: male nurse, man servant, but woman doctors, woman pilot. ‘Moon-faced’ means having a round face. The young man’s appearance is in keeping with his timid character( fear of pet animals).cruelly instructed: ‘cruel’ because they knew the secretary was terrified of dogs. They could easily have found some other errand for him.to exercise the Bedlington terriers: to walk the dogs, to take the dogs out and give them some exercise. The bedlington terrier is a breed of blur or liver-colored, woolly-coated, active, typically small dogs. The terriers are a status symbol showing that that the Duchess is no ordinary dog owner. And the fact that they can keep dog in a hotel suite proves they are very important people.10. Her own tension was not lessened…: Ogilvie had telephoned to say that he would be at the suit in an hour. The Duchess made arrangement for the maid and the secretary to be away when he called. But he was an hour late, and the maid and the secretary might return at any moment. The Duchess knew this and it made her nerveous.11. A wave of cigar smoke accompanied Ogilvie in: to smoke a cigar in the presence of a lady without asking for permission is impolite and the being familiar. He comes into the room smoking his cigar. Ogilvie is a coarse, vulgar, and uneducated fellow and because he thinks he has the Croydons under his thumb theDuchess ‘looked pointedly’, that is, directly and sharply at the cigar, trying to intimidate him with her superior social position.12. Would you kindly put that out.: a period in stead of a question make, indicating it is said in a falling tone, meant to be a command, not a polite request13. piggy eyes: small, narrow eyes lost in the mass of flesh. Ogilvie is one if the ‘bad guys’ in this novel. He has piggy eyes, a gross jowled face, an obese body, speaks in falsetto, is vulgar, unscrupulous, ill-mannered, to the point of throwing his cigar on the carpet. Some examples, to the point of throwing his cigar on the carpet. Some examples with the word pig: Don’t be a pig. ( Don’t be greedy.)He is a pig. ( He is a dirty, greedy or ill-mannered person.)I’ve made a pig of myself. (I’ve eaten too much)14. surveyed her sardonically: He looked her up and down scornfully because he had evidence of their crime up his sleeve and felt sure that in moment he would be able to humble her and bring her to her knees. Note the different meanings of the following words:sardonic: being scornful, cynicalsardonic: intending to hurt the feelings, to inflict pain by deriding, tauntingsardonic: intending to make a person or thing appear foolish or absurdironical: a humorous or sarcastic form of expression in which the intended meaning of what is said is directly opposite to the usual sense.15. to sweep the spacious, well-appointed room: His glance passes swiftly over the big, excellently furnished and arranged room.16. who faced them uncertainly: Besides having a weak character, the Duke is over fond of liquor and other men’s wives, and so is submissive to the Duchess, herself a woman of strong character, a known public figure and cousin of the queen. After the road accident, it was the Duchess who masterminded the cover-up and the Duke wasn’t quite sure of what to say to Ogilvie or what to do, he was afraid of messing things up.17. “Pretty neat set-up you folks got: Ogilvie’s language is ungrammatical, vulgar and slangy. Neat is slangy, meaning nice fine;a general term of approval. Set-up, a noun,meaning arrangement of furniture, etc. A better educated person might say: “This is a pretty nice room that you have got.”For Ogilie’s ungrammatical language, see Note 4 to the text.Here are some more examples form the text: Whether they got fancy titles neither-whether they had fancy title or notI seen you come in –I saw you come inthe kid and the woman was hit—were hit‘f she’d have drove—if she had driven, etc.18. an ornamented fireplace: a fake one, not for use. It is there to add to the decor of the suite.cf. an ornamented fireplace: a highly decorated one19. He missed: His cigar butt did not fall inside the fireplace as he had intended it to.20. I imagine you did not come here to discuss decor: I suppose you did not come here merely to discuss the arrangement of the furniture and other decorations of this suite, what she meant was “Speak your mind. Don’t waste time.” She purposely used the word decor, imagining Ogilvie would be awed. Unlike Ogilive, the Duchess always speaks the Queen’s English, using strictly grammatical structures and shoosing her words carefully, sometimes to the extent of being pompous.21. an appreciative chuckle: mainly self appreciative. When hotel employee goes to a guest’s room, usually he goes there on business and no familiarity is allowed. But here Ogilvie was enjoying the fact that he could afford to do whatever he liked. He love being in a position of temporary supremacy. Also he appreciated the fact that the Duchess was no fool. She knew why he had come.22. He lowered the level of his incongruous falsetto voice: He had an unnaturally high-pitched voice. When he spoke now, he lowered the pitch.incongruous: This falsetto voice sounded funny coming from a thickset man like Ogilvie.23. Jaguar: a brand of very expensive British made sports car24. "Aah" : Now the Duke knew what the man was there for. The sound escaping his lips showed that the Duke was startled and perhaps a bit relieved that things had now come out into the open.25. a warning glance: The Duke had made a blunder the night before by mentioning the car in front of the hotel's assistant general manager when his wife was Trying hard to establish something of an alibi. Now the wile was warning him not to blunder again.26. “In what conceivable way does our car concern you?” : I can hardly imagine how our car could in any way concern you. Why are you so interested in our car?27. "Who else is in this place?": first indication that he did not come with an honest purpose, for why should he desire secrecy28. It was the Duke who answered: The Duke realized that Ogilvie had found them out as soon as he heard that the latter was coming to talk to them. He didn't think what the Duchess had done or would do could improve the situation. So he was eager to cooperate with Ogilvie.29. We sent them out: another blunder, as good as admitting that they knew what Ogilvie had come for and that they had things to hide 30. it pays to check: to be profitable or worthwhile to check. Oilier examples:1) it pays to think before you speak. 2) It’ll pay in keep a diary in English.31. surprising speed- surprising because you wouldn't expect a fat man like him lo move quickly32. "Now then": used lo call attention or lo express a warning or protest33. "You two was in that hit-'n-run": You tow are guilty of that hit-and-run accident. Hit-and-run is usually used to describe a driver who flees from the scone of an accident in which he is involved.34. She met his eyes directly: to pretend that she was innocent of what he accused her of and therefore dared to take up the challenge 35. "This in for r eal.”: I'm no t joking. This is something serious. for real: (slang) meaning real, really36. bit off the end: In order to light up a fresh cigar one end of it has to be clipped. Coarse people like Ogilvic just bit it off.37. "There's been plenty on radio, too. ": There have been a lot of reports about the accident on the radio, too.38. Two high points of colour: The Duchess' cheeks flushed, not evenly, but around the cheek bones. She was upset and a bit scared.But at the moment she was pretending indignation.39. cut it out: (colloquial) to slop what she was doing, i.e. pretending they were innocent40. The words spat forth: According to grammar, it should be: "The words were spat forth", or "Ogilvie spat out the words". Perhaps the author here wants to make it more dramatic by having "the words" following right after what he had just said, instead of saying "he spat out the words". Also, "the words spat forth" is more forceful and vivid than "the words were spat forth."41. all pretense of blandness gone: nominative absolute construction with a noun phrase plus a past participle. Ogilvie threw away his pretended politeness.Some other examples of the same construction from the text:his eyes sardonically on the Duchess (n.+ prepositional phrase)you driving (pron. +present participle)her poise for the moment recovered (n. +past participle)42. Ignoring the Duke, Ogilvie waved the unlighted cigar under his adversary's nose: He knew that the Duchess was the stronger character of the two and it was she that he had to deal with, so she was his enemy.43. your high-an'-mightiness: high and mighty: very proud, (the correct way to address a Duke or a Duchess is "Your Grace").

To throw the book is an idiom, in which the word book means I the law book. It refers to the book. Here Ogilvic follows the metaphor through.47. if I do what by rights I should, ... you'll hardly see 'em: If 1 do what I should do in justice (that is, to report what 1 know to police headquarters), a group of policemen will come over here very fast, so fast that you wouldn't be able to see them moving.48. so’s: so as, so that49. ’f you want i t the other way: if you refuse lo tell me the truth and prefer to have the law lo interfere50. The Duchess of Croydon—three centuries and a half of inbred arrogance behind her—did not yield easily: The Duchess was supported by her arrogance coming from parents of noble families who belonged to tho nobility For more than three hundred years. So she did not give in easily.51. she faced the grossness of the house detective squarely: She stood up boldly and rebuked d the coarse vulgarity of the house detective.52. blackguard: scoundrel, villain53. flickered wavered54. "It’s no go, old girl It was a good try.": It's no use. What you did just now was a good attempt at trying to save the situation. Here the phrase no go is a colloquialism, meaning not possible; without use or value. Old girt is an informal way of addressing one's wife. 55. "That's more like it.” : said when a second thing said by the other person sounds more acceptable. plausible, or less objectionable than the first one 56. “Now we’re getting somewhere.”: Now we’re making some progress, accomplishing something.57. "I'll spell it out": I'll tell you frankly and in detail.58. The house detective took his time: It is the second time that Ogilvie has done so, both limes lo make the impact of what he is going to say on the Croydons even stronger.59. as if challenging her objection: as if openly daring her lo object to his smoking a cigar, as she had done earlier; as if he wanted too see if the Duchess dared to object to his smoking 60. Bin beyond wrinkling her nose in distaste, she made no comment: She only wrinkled her nose to show her dislike for the of-fending cigar smell, but did not rebuke him.61.

Leastways, I guess you'll all her that ifyou’re not too fussy: I guess if you are not too particular about what words to use, at least you'd rail her your lady friend. Here Ogilvie is trying to get at him. It’s more than obvious that be was not really with a friend, but a high class whore.65. As Ogilvie glanced, grinning, at the Duchess Ogilvie is rubbing it in, enjoying himself over the wounded pride of an arrogant wife.66. The way I hear it, you won a hundred at the tables then lost it at the bar: From what I hear, you won a hundred dollars in gambling and then spent the money drinking.67. You were into a second hundred—with a real swinging party: You were beginning to spend another hundred dollars of your own ( the hundred won in gambling had already been spent) to treat a merry and lively party.68. There ain’t much, out of the way, which people who stay in this hotel do, I don’t get to hear about: if anybody who stays in this hotel does anything wrong, improper or unusual, I always get to know about it.

1) Most Americans remember Mark Twain as the father of Huck Finn's idyllic cruise through eternal boyhood and Tom Sawyer's endless summer of freedom and adventure2) The cast of characters set before him in his new profession was rich and varied-- a cosmos.3) All would resurface in his books, together with the colorful language that he soaked up with a memory that seemed phonographic4) Steamboat decks teemed not only with the main current of pioneering humanity, but its flotsam of hustlers, gamblers, and thugs as well.5) He went west by stagecoach and succumbed to the epidemic of gold and silver fever in Nevada's Washoe region.6) Mark Twain began digging his way to regional fame as a newspaper reporter and humorist.7) "It was a splendid population – for all the slow, sleepy, sluggish-brained sloths stayed at home...8) 'Well, that is California all over’'"9) "What a robust people, what a nation of thinkers we might be, if we would only lay ourselves on the shelf occasionally and renew our edges."10) The last of his own illusions seemed to have crumbled near the end.参考答案1) Mark Twain is known to most Americans as the author of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and its sequel Huckleberry Finn, which are generally acknowledged to be his greatest works. Huck Finn is noted for his simple and pleasant journey through his boyhood which seems eternal and Tom Sawyer is famous for his free roam of the country and his adventure in one summer which seems never to end. The youth and summer are eternal because this is the only age and time we knew them. They are frozen in that age or season for all readers.2) In his new profession he could meet people of all kinds. His work on the boat made it possible for him to meeta large variety of people. It is a world of all types of characters.3) All would reappear in his books, written in the colorful language that he seemed to be able to remember and record as accurately as a phonograph.4) Steamboat decks were filled with people of pioneering spirit (people who explored and prepared the way for others) and also lawless people or social outcasts such as hustlers, gamblers and thugs.5) He took a horse-drawn public vehicle and went west to Nevada, following the flow of people in the Gold Rush.6) Mark Twain began working hard to became well known locally as a newspaper reporter and humorist.7) Those who came pioneering out west were energetic, courageous and reckless people, because those who stayed at home were slow, dull and lazy people.8) That's typical of California.9) If we relaxed, rested or stayed away from all this crazy struggle for success occasionally and kept the daring and enterprising spirit, we would be able to remain strong and healthy and continue to produce great thinkers. 10) At the end of his life, he lost the last bit of his positive view of man and the world.1）汤姆很聪明，丝毫不亚于班上的第一名学生。
