In the collected body of writing we call literature, there may bedistinguished two separate groupings capable of blending, but also fitted for reciprocal repulsion. There is first the literature of knowledge, and secondly the literature of power. The function of the first is to teach; the function of the second is to move. The first is rudder, the second an oar or sail. The first speaks to the mere discursive understanding; the second speaks ultimately to the higher understanding or reason, but always through the affection of pleasure and sympathy. Whenever we talk in ordinary language of seeking information or gaining knowledge, we understand the works as connected with absolute novelty. But it is the grandeur of all truth which can occupy a very high place in human interests, although it may not be absolutely novel to the meanest of minds.What do we learn from “Paradise Lost”? Nothing at all. What do we learn from a cook book? Something new, something we did not know before, in every paragraph. But would we therefore put the wretched cookbook on a higher level of estimation than the divine poem? What we owe to Milton is not any knowledge, of which a million separate items are still but a million advancing steps on the same earthly level; what we owe is power,。

Maybe at the first glance it is not inviting . It lacks glamour . It has no quick result . Itdemands 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 .

This story made us can think such a question that something in life can’t only depend on self willingness . Under some circumstances , certain force seems necessary .G. Write a short passage of 150-200words in English on the topic “Comment on the Doctor’s Behavior . “You should covre the following points :1.Why he wanted to exa mine the girl’s throat ;2.how he tried to coax her to open her mouth ;3.what made him decide to use force to see her throat ;4.your opinion of the doctor’s behavior .Key G.Comment on the Doctor’s BehaviorAfter the doctor arrived at the girl’s home , he wanted to see her throat . As there had been a number of cases of diphtheria in the school to which the girl went during that month , the doctor also thought that of the girl . So he smiled to the girl and asked her to open her mouth and let him have a look at her throat . No matter how the doctor coaxed , the girl shut her mouth firmly .Thinking that the girl might have diphtheria and possibly die of it , the doctor decided to use force to open her mouth . He had seen at least two children lying dead in bed of neglect in such cases . He felt that he must get a diagnosis now . So he grasped the girl’s head with his left hand and tried to get the wooden tongue depressor between her teeth . But when the doctor got the wooden spatula behind her last teeth . She gripped the blade between her molars and reduced it to splinters . In the final unreasoning assault the doctor outerpowered the girl . He forced the heavy silver spoon back of her teeth and down her throat till she gagged . Her both tonsils were covered with membrane.From that the doctor had done , I thought he was a responsible person . In order to save the lives of the patients , especially those children who did not know how toco-operate with the doctor ,he had to take some measure . Otherwise a good or suitable time of treatment would be missed .Lesson Four Die as You ChooseA.Answer the following questions on the text :1.Is euthanasia openly practiced in Holland ?2.Why did the doctors in the U.S.sometimes secretly practice euthanasia without consulting the dying patients ?3.What is the difference between passive euthanasia and active euthanasia ?Do you think they make any difference ?4.What is a “living-will “?5.Did Hippocrates prohibit euthanasia ?Did most ancient Greek doctors and thinkers agree with his ban ?What did the author want to tell the reader by presenting this historical fact ?6.What is the danger involved if euthanasia is legalized ?7.Why did the author say that West Germany will not be able to legalize any form of euthanasia for a long time to come ?8.What is the author’s view on euthanasia ?Key A1.Yes, it is .2.Because they could rarely discuss euthanasia openly with patients and voluntary euthanasia was taboo , the doctor had to make the decision himself .3.Passive euthanasia means the doctor lets the patient die without giving him any treatment on his own request . Active euthanasia means the doctor kill the patient by giving him an injection or enough painkillers . No, I don’t think they make any difference.4.“Living will “is a will made by a person when he is living that he does not want life prolonged when he is dying .5.Yes , he did .No, they didn’t .The author wanted to explain that when in ancient Greece doctors and thinkers had the courage to disagree with Hippocrates , we should support euthanasia today .6.It may pose dangers for society by setting a precedent for killing .7.West Germany will not legalize any form of euthanasia for a long time because of the shadow of the past .8.The author has an appositive attitude towards euthanasia . He supports it .A.Translate the following into Chinese:1.The need for laws on euthanasia cannot be dodged for much longer .2.In Holland mercy-killing is accepted by the medical establishment and openly practiced a few thousand times each year .3.The debate on euthanasia will rumble on into the autumn, when Californians may vote on a proposed law legalizing euthanasia .4.Many people accept that it is sad , undignified and gruesome to prolong the throes of death with all the might of medical technology .5.How long can the distinction between killing and letting die hold out ?6.Is he then necessarily wrong if he administers enough painkillers to kill ?Does the fact that the doctor performed an action, rather than an omission , condemn him ?7.It is probably no coincidence that it was Dutch doctors who most heroically resisted pressure to join in the Nazi medical atrocities .8.Countries with an uninterrupted recent libertarian tradition have less to fear from setting some limited rules for voluntary euthanasia .Key B.1.现在迫切需要制定有关安乐死的法律.2.在荷兰,安乐死已经被医疗机构所接受,并于每年公开实施数千次.3.这场有关安乐死的辩论将持续到秋天,直到加利福尼亚人投票表决了一项提议,使安乐死合法化为止.4.许多人认为用所能使用的医疗科技来延长死亡前的痛苦是悲哀的/不高尚的/可怕的.5.这种主动实施与被动使用安乐死的区别还能维持多长时间呢?6.如果他使用足够数量的止痛片来为其实施安乐死就有错了吗?医生采取行动,就应受到遣责吗?。
Lesson One Rock Superstars关于我们和我们的社会,他们告诉了我们些什么?What Do They Tell Us About Ourselves and Our Society?摇滚乐是青少年叛逆的音乐。
——摇滚乐评论家约相?罗克韦尔Rock is the music of teenage rebellion.——John Rockwell,rock music critic知其崇拜何人便可知其人。
——小说家罗伯特?佩恩?沃伦By a man's heroes ye shall know him.——Robert Penn Warren,novelist1972年6月的一天,芝加哥圆形剧场挤满了大汗淋漓、疯狂摇摆的人们。
It was mid-June,1972,the Chicago Amphitheater was packed,sweltering,rocking.滚石摇滚乐队的迈克?贾格尔正在台上演唱“午夜漫步人”。
Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones was singing “Midnight Rambler.”演唱结束时评论家唐?赫克曼在现场。
Critic Don Heckman was there when the song ended.他描述道:“贾格尔抓起一个半加仑的水罐沿舞台前沿边跑边把里面的水洒向前几排汗流浃背的听众。
听众们蜂拥般跟随着他跑,急切地希望能沾上几滴洗礼的圣水。
“Jagger,”he said,“grabs a half-gallon jug of water and runs along the front platform,sprinkling its contents over the first few rows of sweltering listeners. They surge to follow him,eager to be touched by a few baptismal drops”。
1973年12月下旬的一天,约1.4万名歌迷在华盛顿市外的首都中心剧场尖叫着,乱哄哄地拥向台前。
It was late December,1973,Some 14,000 screaming fans were crunching up to the frontof the stage at Capital Center,outside Washington,D.C.美国的恐怖歌星艾利丝?库珀的表演正接近尾声。
Alice Cooper,America's singing ghoul,was ending his act.他表演的最后一幕是假装在断头台上结束自己的生命。
He ends it by pretending to end his life –with a guillotine.他的“头”落入一个草篮中。
His “head”drops into a straw basket.“哎呀!”一个黑衣女孩子惊呼道:“啊!真是了不起,不是吗?”。
“Ooh,”gasped a girl dressed in black. “Oh,isn't that marvelous?”当时,14岁的迈克珀力也在场,但他的父母不在那里。
Fourteen-year-old Mick Perlie was there too,but his parents weren't.“他们觉得他恶心,恶心,恶心,”迈克说,“他们对我说,你怎么受得了那些?”“They think he's sick,sick,sick,”Mike said. “They say to me,'How can you stand that stuff?'”1974年1月下旬的一天,在纽约州尤宁谷城拿骚体育场内,鲍勃?狄伦和“乐队”乐队正在为音乐会上要用的乐器调音。
It was late January,1974. Inside the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale,New York,Bob Dylan and The Band were tuning for a concert.馆外,摇滚歌迷克利斯?辛格在大雨中等待着入场。
Outside,in the pouring rain,fan Chris Singer was waiting to get in.“这是朝圣,”克利斯说,“我应该跪着爬进去。
”“This is pilgrimage,”Chris said,“I ought to be crawling on my knees.”对于这一切好评及个人崇拜,你怎么看?How do you feel about all this adulation and hero worship?当米克?贾格尔的崇拜者们把他视为上帝的最高代表或是一个神时,你是赞成还是反对?When Mick Jagger's fans look at him as a high priest or a god,are you with them or against them?你也和克利斯?辛格一样对鲍勃?狄伦怀有几乎是宗教般的崇敬吗?Do you share Chris Singer's almost religious reverence for Bob Dylan?你认为他或狄伦是步入歧途吗?Do you think he –or Dylan –is misguided?你也认为艾利丝?库珀令人恶心而拒不接受吗?Do you reject Alice Cooper as sick?难道你会莫名其妙地被这个奇怪的小丑吸引,原因就在于他表达出你最狂热的幻想?Or are you drawn somehow to this strange clown,perhaps because he acts out your wildest fantasies?这些并不是闲谈。
These aren't idle questions.有些社会学家认为对这些问题的回答可以充分说明你在想些什么以及社会在想些什么——也就是说,有关你和社会的态度。
Some sociologists say that your answers to them could explain a lot about what you are thinking and about what your society is thinking –in other words,about where you and your society are.社会学家欧文?霍洛威茨说:“音乐表现其时代。
”“Music expressed its times,”says sociologist Irving Horowitz.霍洛威茨把摇滚乐的舞台视为某种辩论的论坛,一个各种思想交锋的场所。
Horowitz sees the rock music arena as a sort of debating forum, a place where ideas clash and crash.他把它看作是一个美国社会努力为自己的感情及信仰不断重新进行解释的地方。
He sees it as a place where American society struggles to define and redefine its feelings and beliefs.他说:“重新解释是一项只有青年人才能执行的任务。
只有他们才把创造与夸张、理性与运动、言语与声音、音乐与政治融为一体。
”“The redefinition,”Horowitz says,“is a task uniquely performed by the young. It is they alone who combine invention and exaggeration,reason and motion,word and sound,music and politics.”作曲兼演唱家托德?伦德格伦对这个观点表示赞同。
Todd Rundgren,the composer and singer,agrees.他说:“摇滚乐与其说是一种音乐力量不如说是一种社会心理的表现。
就连埃尔维斯?普雷斯利也并非是一种伟大的音乐力量,他只不过是体现了50年代青少年那种心灰意冷的精神状态。
”“Rock music,”he says,“is really a sociological expression rather than a musical force. Even Elvis Presley wasn't really a great musical force. It's just that Elvis managed to embody the frustrated teenage spirit of the 1950s.”毫无疑问,普雷斯利震惊了美国的成人世界。
Of course Presley horrified adult America.报纸写社论攻击他,电视网也禁止播他,但也许埃尔维斯证实了霍洛威茨和伦德格伦的看法。
Newspapers editorialized against him,and TV networks banned him. But Elvis may have proved what Horowitz and Rundgren believe.当他通过电视上埃德?沙利文的星期日晚间的综艺节目出现在千百万人面前时,就引起了某种辩论。
When he appeared on the Ed.Sullivan Sunday night variety show in front of millions,a kind of “debate”took place.多数年纪大的观众眉头紧皱,而大多数年轻观众则报以掌声欢迎。
Most of the older viewers frowned,while most of the younger viewers applauded.摇滚乐评论家们说,从埃尔维斯到艾利丝,许多歌星帮助我们的社会解说其信仰与态度。
Between Elvis and Alice,rock critics say,a number of rock stars have helped our society define its beliefs and attitudes.鲍勃?狄伦触动了对现状不满的神经,他唱到民权、核散落物以及孤独。
