大学英语精读第四册课文翻译Unit 1个大学男孩 不清楚赚钱需要付出艰苦的劳动 被一份许诺轻松赚大钱的广告吸引了。
男孩们很快就明白 如果事情看起来好得不像真的 那多半确实不是真的。
轻轻松松赚大钱约翰•G•哈贝尔“你们该看看这个 ”我向我们的两个读大学的儿子建议道。
“你们若想避免因为老是向人讨钱而有失尊严的话 这兴许是一种办法。
”我将挂在我们门把手上的、装在一个塑料袋里的几本杂志拿给他们。
塑料袋上印着一条信息说 需要招聘人投递这样的袋子 这活儿既轻松又赚钱。
“轻轻松松赚大钱!” “我不在乎失不失尊严 ”大儿子回答说。
“我可以忍受 ”他的弟弟附和道。
“看到你们俩伸手讨钱讨惯了一点也不感到尴尬的样子 真使我痛心 ”我说。
孩子们说他们可以考虑考虑投递杂志的事。
我听了很高兴 便离城出差去了。
午夜时分 我已远离家门 在一家旅馆的房间里舒舒服服住了下来。
电话铃响了 是妻子打来的。
她想知道我这一天过得可好。
“好极了!”我兴高采烈地说。
“你过得怎么样?”我问道。
“棒极了!”她大声挖苦道。
“真棒!而且这还仅仅是个开始。
又一辆卡车刚在门前停下。
”“又一辆卡车?”“今晚第三辆了。
第一辆运来了四千份蒙哥马利-沃德百货公司的广告 第二辆运来四千份西尔斯-罗伯克百货公司的广告。
我不知道这一辆装的啥 但我肯定又是四千份什么的。
既然这事是你促成的 我想你或许想了解事情的进展。
”我之所以受到指责 事情原来是这样 由于发生了一起报业工人罢工 通常夹在星期日报纸里的广告插页 必须派人直接投送出去。
公司答应给我们的孩子六百美金 任务是将这些广告插页在星期天早晨之前投递到四千户人家去。
“不费吹灰之力!”我们上大学的大儿子嚷道。
“六百块!”他的弟弟应声道 “我们两个钟点就能干完!”“西尔斯和沃德的广告通常都是报纸那么大的四页 ”妻子告诉我说 “现在我们门廊上堆着三万二千页广告。
就在我们说话的当儿 两个大个子正各抱着一大捆广告走过来。
这么多广告 我们可怎么办?”“你让孩子们快干 ”我指示说。
史密斯太太对我抱怨说，她经常发现与自己十六岁的女儿简直无法沟通。
Mrs. Smith complained to me that she often found it simply impossible to communicate with her 16-year-old daughter.我坚信，阅读简写的 (simplified) 英文小说是扩大我们词汇量的一种轻松愉快的方法。
I firmly believe that reading simplified English novels is an easy and enjoyable way of enlarging our vocabulary.我认为我们在保护环境不受污染 (pollution) 方面还做得不够。
I don’t think we’re doing enough to protect our environment from pollution.除了每周写作文外，我们的英语老师还给我们布置了八本书在暑假里阅读。
In addition to/Apart from writing compositions on a weekly basis, our English teacher assigned us eight books to read during the summer vacation.我们从可靠的消息来源获悉下学期一位以英语为母语的人将要教我们英语口语。
We’ve learned from reliable sources that a native English speaker is going to teach us spoken English next term/semester.经常看英语电影不仅会提高你的听力，而且还会帮助你培养说的技能。
Seeing English movies on a regular basis will not only improve your ear, but will also help you build your speaking skills.如果你们对这些学习策略有什么问题，请随便问我。

UNIT 1课文翻译一位青年男子发现,漫无目的的逛街也会惹官司。
误会一场接一场，直到最终他必须出庭受审……法律小冲突我平生就一次陷入法律困境。
当时被捕并被传上法院的全过程是件相当不愉快的经历，但现在可用此编个好故事。
让人非常烦恼的是我被抓和接着在法庭的命运中那些主观武断的情景。
此事大约发生在十二年前的二月份。
那里我已中学毕业了几个月，并要等到该年十月份才能上大学。
那段时间，我仍住在家中。
一天早晨，我去了里士满，那是离我的地址不远的伦敦郊区。
我正在找一份临时工作以便攒点钱去旅行。
由于天气晴朗，且无急事，我便悠闲自得地看看商店橱窗，逛逛公园，甚至有时只是呆站着到处观望。
很可能是这种明显的无所事事的样子导致了我的不幸。
事情发生的时间是大约十一点半。
我正从地方图书馆走出来，本想在那里找一份工作而一无所获。
此时看到一位男士从街对面走来，显然打算和我讲话。
我猜想他是向我问时间。
然而，他说他是警官并要逮捕我。
起初，我想这是在开玩笑，但接着又来了一位警察，并穿着警服。
我便深信不疑了。
“但为什么呢？”我问。
“到处遛达，有作案嫌疑。
”他说。
“作什么案？”我问。
“偷窃，”他说。
“偷什么？”我问。
“牛奶瓶，”他说，还做出非常严肃的样子！“噢，”我说。
事情的缘由是那一带有许多小窃贼，特别是有从门前台阶上盗奶瓶的小偷。
接着，我犯了一个大错误。
那时我正十九岁，头发长而蓬乱，并把自己当作六十年代“逆文化年轻人”的一员。
因此，我装着一副冷漠的毫不在乎的样子。
所以我说“你们跟踪我多久啦？”说话的腔调尽量装出无所谓有样子，就象随便谈话一样。
于是在他们看来我是十分熟悉此类事情，这使他们更加坚信我彻头彻尾是个名声不好的人。
几分钟后，一辆警车来了。
“坐到后排去，”他们说：“把手放在前排椅背上，不要挪动。
”他俩坐在我的两边。
这倒不是开玩笑的。
在警察局他们审问了我几个小时。
我继续尽力做出深谙世故并对此事习以为常的样子。
当他们问我一直在干什么时，我告诉他们我一直在找工作。

大学英语精读第3册第6课课文翻译及课后答案一天的等待他走进我们房间关窗户的时候，我们还未起床。
我见他一副病容，全身哆嗦，脸色苍白，步履缓慢，好像一动就会引起疼痛。
“你怎么啦，宝贝？”“我头痛。
”“你最好回床上去睡。
”“不，我没啥病。
”“你先去睡。
我穿好衣服来看你。
”可是当我来到楼下时，他已穿好衣服，坐在火炉旁。
这个9岁的男孩，看上去病得厉害，一副可怜的模样。
我用手摸了摸他的额头，知道他发烧了。
“你到楼上去睡，”我说，“你病了。
”“我没有病，”他说。
医生来后，量了孩子的体温。
“多少度？”我问医生。
“102度。
”下楼后，医生留下用不同颜色胶囊包装的三种药丸，并嘱咐如何服用。
一种药退烧，另一种润肠、通便，还有一种是去酸。
他解释说，流感细菌只能在酸性环境中生存。
他似乎对流感很内行，并说，如果发烧不超过104度，就用不着担心。
这是轻度流感，只要当心不引起肺炎，就无危险。
我田到房里，记下孩子的体温，并记下各种胶囊的服用时间。
“要不要让我读，点书给你听？”“好的，如果你想读的话，”孩子说。
他的脸色十分苍白，眼窝下方有黑晕。
他躺在床上一动不动，对周围发生的一切漠然置之。
我朗读霍华德·派尔的《海盗故事》，但我看得出他并不在听。
“你感觉怎么样，宝贝？”我问他。
“到目前为止，还是老样子，”他说。
我坐在床的脚端自个儿看书，等着到时间再给他服一粒药丸。
按理，他本该睡着了。
然而，当我抬头看时，他却双眼盯着床的脚端，神情异常。
“你为什么不睡一会儿呢？到吃药时，我会叫醒你的。
”“我宁愿醒着。
”过了一会儿，他对我说：“你不必呆在这里陪我，爸爸，要是这事令你烦恼的话。
”“没有什么可烦恼的。
”“不，我是说，要是这事终将给你带来烦恼的话，你就不必呆在这里。
”我想，或许他有，点儿神志不清了。
11点钟，照规定给他服药后，我便出去了一会儿。
那是个晴朗而又寒冷的日子，地上覆盖着一层已结成冰的冻雨，就像那光秃秃的树木，那灌木丛，那砍下的树枝，以及所有的草坪和空地都用冰漆过似的。
大学英语精读第3册第5课课文翻译及课后答案课文翻译妈妈哭的那天很久前一个阴暗的冬天，我放学回家，心中充满着期待。
我腋下夹着一本我所喜爱的刚出版的体育杂志，而且整个房子将只有我一个人。
爸爸还没下班，妹妹不在家，妈妈刚找到一份新工作，在一小时内是不会回家的，我跳上台阶，冲进起居室，啪的一声打开电灯。
我眼前出现的景象使我惊呆了。
妈妈紧缩着身子。
手捂着脸，坐在沙发的一端，她在哭。
我以前从没见她哭过。
我小心地走近她，把手放在她肩上。
“妈”我说，“怎么了？”妈妈长叹一口气，强作微笑。
“没什么，真的。
没什么大不了的事。
只是我要失去这份新工作了。
我字打的不够快。
”“但你才上三天班，”我说，“你会赶上的。
”我重复了妈妈对我说过的一百遍的那句话。
每当我学什么或做什么重要事情而遇到麻烦时，妈常这样对我说。
“不行了，”妈妈神色黯淡地对我说。
“过去我常说只要我下决心，什么事我都能干好。
现在我仍然认为在多数情况下我能做到。
但是，打字这事我做不到啦。
”我无能为力，十分尴尬。
那时我16岁，仍然认为妈妈能做任何事。
几年前，当我们卖掉农场，搬到城里来住的时候，妈妈决定开一所日托所。
她没受过这方面的训练，但这并不妨碍她。
她参加幼托函授课学习，做练习，六个月后就正式获得从事这项工作的资格了。
不久后，她不但招满了生，而且还有许多孩子等着注册。
我认为这是理所当然的，是妈妈能力的体现。
但是不管是日托所还是后来爸妈买的汽车旅馆都无法提供足够的钱送我和妹妹上大学。
两年后我就要准备上大学了。
再过三年，妹妹也想上大学。
时间过得真快。
妈妈想尽了一切方法存钱。
很明显，爸爸不可能比他现在干得更多---除了一份全日制工作外，还要耕种80英亩地。
在我们卖掉汽车旅馆几个月后，妈弄回家一台旧式打字机。
这台打字机跳字，键盘也很松。
那天吃饭时，我说这台打字是“废物一件”。
“我们只买得起这个,”妈妈说。
“这对练打字是够好的了。
”从那天开始，只要桌子一收拾，碗一洗，妈妈就会消失到她的缝纫房里练习打字。
大学英语精读第3册第3课课文翻译及课后答案Unit 3我为什么当老师你为什么要教书呢？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。
当然，我之所以教书并不是因为我觉得教书轻松。
我做过各种各样的工作借以谋生：机修工、木工、作家，教书可是其中最难的一行。
对我来说，教书是个会令人熬红眼睛、掌心出汗、精神沮丧的职业。
说熬红眼睛,这是因为我晚上不管备课到多晚,总觉得准备得还不充分。
说掌心出汗，是因为我跨进教室之前总是非常紧张，自信学生一定会发觉我其实是个傻瓜笨蛋。
说精神沮丧，这是因为我1小时后走出教室时，确信这堂课上得比平常还要平淡无味。
我之所以教书，也不是因为我认为自己能够解答问题，或者因为我有满腹学问，非与别人分享不可。
有时我感到很吃惊，学生竟真的把我课上讲的东西做了笔记！这样说来，我为什么还要教书呢？我教书，是因为我喜爱校历的步调。
6月、7月和8月提供了一个供思考、研究和创作的机会。
我教书，是因为教学是建立在“变化”这一基础上的职业。
教材还是原来的教材，但我自身却变了——更重要的是，我的学生变了。
我教书，是因为我喜欢有让自己犯错误的自由，有自己吸取教训的自由，有激励自己和激励学生的自由。
作为教师，我可以自行做主。
如果我想要求一年级的学生通过自行编写课本的办法来学习写作，谁能说我不可以那样做呢？这样的课程也许会彻底失败，但我们都可以从失败的尝试中获得教益。
我教书，是因为我喜欢学生提出必须绞尽脑汁才能回答的问题。
我们这个世界有无穷无尽的正确答案来对付拙劣的问题。
何况我在教学过程有时也会想到一些出色的问题。
我教书，是因为我喜欢想方设法使自己和我的学生从象牙塔里走出来，进入现实世界。

Get in the back, they said. Put your hands on the back of the front seat and don t move them. 〝坐到后面去,〞他们说.〝把手放到前排座位的靠背上,不准挪动.〞They got in on either side of me.

The poor police had never stood a chance. 我无罪获释.可怜的警方一点儿赢的机会都没有.The solicitor even succeeded in getting costs awarded against the police. 我的律师甚至让法庭责成警方承担了诉讼费用.And so I do not have a criminal record. 这样,我的履历上没有留下犯罪的记录.But what was most shocking at the time was the things my release from the charge so clearly depended on. 但当时最令人震惊的,是那些显然导致宣布我无罪的证据.I had the right accent, respectable middle-class parents in court, reliable witnesses, and I could obviously afford a very good solicitor. 我讲话的口音〝表明我教养良好〞,到庭的有体面的中产阶级的双亲,有可靠的证人,还有,我显然请得起一名很好的律师.Given the obscure nature of the charge, I feel sure that if I had come from a different background, and had really been unemployed, there is every chance that I would have been found guilty. 从对我指控的这种捕风捉影的做法来看,我肯定,如果我出身在另一种背景的家庭里,并且真的是失了业的话,我完全可能被判有罪.While asking for costs to be awarded, my solicitor s case quite obviously revolved around the fact that I had a brilliant academic record . 当我的律师要求赔偿诉讼费时,他公然把辩护的证据建立在我〝学业优异〞这一事实上.Meanwhile, just outside the courtroom, one of the policemen who had arrested me was gloomily complaining to my mother that another youngster had been turned against the police. 与此同时,就在审判室外面,一位抓我的警察正在沮丧地向我母亲抱怨,说是又一个小伙子要跟警察作对了.You could have been a bit more helpful when we arrested you, he said to me reproachfully. 他带着责备的口气对我说,〝我们抓你的时候,你本可以稍微帮点忙的.〞What did he mean? 他说这话什么意思?Presumably that I should have looked outraged and said something like, Look here, do you know who you re talking to? I am a highly successful student with a brilliant academic record. How dare you arrest me! 大概是说我本该显出愤愤不平的样子,并说,〝喂,留神点,你知道你在跟谁说话?我是学业出众的高材生.你敢抓我!〞Then they, presumably, would have apologized, perhaps even taken off their caps, and let me on my way. 那样一来,他们或许会向我道歉,说不定还会脱帽致意,让我走开呢.NEW WORDSbrushn. brief fight or encounter 小冲突;小接触processn. course; method, esp. one used in manufacture 过程;制作法arbitrarya. based on one s own opinion only, not on reason 任意的;武断的circumstancen.

The whole process of being arrested and taken to court(法院) was a rather unpleasant e_perience at the time, but it makes a good story now. What makes it rather disturbing was the arbitrary circumstances both of my arrest and my subsequent fate in court.事情发生在大约_年前,其时正是2月.几个月前我中学毕业了,但上大学要等到_月.当时我还在家中居住.It happened in February about twelve years ago. I had left school a couple of months before that and was not due to go to university until the following October. I was still living at home at the time.一天早晨,我来到里士满.这里是伦敦的一个郊区,离我住的地方不远⊙我在寻找一份临时工作,以便积些钱去旅游.由于天气晴朗,当时又无急事,我便慢悠悠看看橱窗,逛逛公园.有时千脆停下脚步,四处张望.现在看来,一定是这种明显的毫无回的的游逛,使我倒了霉. One morning I was in Richmond, a suburb of London near where Ilived. I was looking for a temporary job so that I could save up some moneyto go traveling. As it was a fine day and I was in no hurry, I was taking my time, looking in shop windows, strolling in the park, and sometimesjust stopping and looking around me. It must have been this obvious aim-lessness that led to my downfall.事情发生在_点半钟光景.我在当地图书馆谋职未成,刚刚走出来,便看到一个人穿越马路,显然是要来跟我说话.我以为他要问我时间,不料他说他是警官,要逮捕我.起先我还以为这是在开玩笑,但又一个警察出现在我的面前,这次是位身着警服的,这一下使我确信无疑了.It was about half past eleven when it happened. I was just walking out of the local library, having unsuccessfully sought employment there, whenI saw a man walking across the road with the obvious intention of talkingto me. I thought he was going to ask me the time. Instead, he said he wasa police officer and he was arresting me. At first I thought it was somekind of joke. But then another policeman appeared, this time in uniform, andwas left in no doubt.〝为什么要抓我?〞我问道.〝到处游荡,企图作案,〞他说.〝作什么案?〞我又问.〝偷窃,〞他说.〝偷什么?〞我追问.〝牛奶瓶,〞他板着面孔说道.〝噢,〞我说.事情原来是这样的,在这一地区多次发生小的扒窃案,特别是从门前台阶上偷走牛奶瓶. It turned out there had been a lot of petty thefts in the area, particularly that of stealing milk bottles from doorsteps.接着,我犯了一个大错误.其时我年方_,留一头蓬乱的长发,自认为是60年代〝青年反主流文化〞的一员.所以我想装出一副冷漠的.对这一事件满不在乎的样子.于是我尽量用一种漫不经心的极其随便的腔调说,〝你们跟踪我多久啦?〞这样一来,在他们眼里,我就像是非常熟悉这一套的了,也使他们更加确信我是一个地地道道的坏蛋.Then I made my big mistake. At the time I was nineteen, had long untidy hair, and regarded myself as part of the si_ties ` youth counterculture .As a result, I wanted to appear cool and unconcerned with the incident, soI said, ` How long have you been following me? in the most casual and conversational tone I could manage. I thus appeared to them to be quite familiar with this sort of situation, and it confirmed them in their belief thatI was a thoroughly disreputable character.几分钟后,开来了一辆警车.〝坐到后面去,〞他们说.〝把手放到前排座位的靠背上,不准挪动.〞他们分别坐在我的两边.这可再也不是闹着玩的了.在警察局,他们审讯了我好几个小时.我继续装成老于世故.对这种事习以为常.当他们问我在千什么时,我告诉他们在找工作.〝啊,〞我可以想见他们在想,〝果然是个失业的家伙.〞 At the police station they questioned me for several hours. I continuedto try to look worldly and au fait with the situation. When they asked mewhat I had been doing, I told them I d been looking for a job. ` Aha, Icould see them thinking, `unemployed .最后,我被正式指控,并通知我下周一到里士满地方法庭受审.随后他们让我离开.我想在法庭上作自我辩护,但父亲知道这事后,马上请了一位高明的律师.我们星期一出庭的时候,带了各种各样的证人,其中包括我中学的英语老师,作我人品的见证人.但结果法庭没有叫他作证.我的〝审判〞没有进行到那一步.开庭 1 5分钟,法官就驳回了对我的指控.我无罪获释.可怜的警方败诉,我的律师甚至让法庭责成警方承担了诉讼费用. I wanted to conduct my own defense in court, but as soon as my fatherfound out what had happened, he hired a very good solicitor. We went along that Monday armed with all kinds of witnesses, including my Englishteacher from school as a character witness. But he was never called on togive evidence. My `trial didn t get that far.

You could have been a bit more helpfulwhen we arrested you, he said to me reproachfully.他说这话什么意思?大概是说我本该显出愤愤不平的样子,并说,〝喂,留神,点,你知道你在跟谁说话?我是学业出众的高材生.你敢抓我!〞那样一来,他们或许会向我道歉,说不定还会脱帽致意,让我走开呢.What did he mean?

How dare you arrest me!Then they, presumably, would have apologized, perhaps even taken offtheir caps, and let me on my way.第二单元不肯告发的女人〝我从来就不恨北方佬,我所恨的只是战争??〞我的姨婆贝蒂一讲起她的故事来,总是用这样的话开头.她的故事,在我还小的时候就听过多遍.姨婆住在弗吉尼亚贝利维尔一所旧房子里.每逢我们一家去看望她,她都要讲讲她的故事,那时姨婆贝蒂都快80岁了.但我可以想象到故事里她的容貌——刚刚_岁,长着一双亮晶晶的蓝眼睛,非常漂亮.贝蒂?范?米特完全有理由憎恨内战.她有个兄弟死在葛底斯堡战场上,还有一位当了俘虏.接着,她年轻的丈夫詹姆斯——南部邦联的一名军官——也被俘虏,关到某地一所不为人知的俘虏营里.9月下旬的一个热天,贝蒂家以前的奴隶迪克?朗纳来到贝蒂处,告诉她一件奇怪的事.他在察看离范?米特家半英里处的一所农舍时,本以为那是所空房子,但在屋里,他听到有人低声呻吟.他随着呻吟声来到顶楼,发现了一名受伤的联邦政府士兵,在他的身边放着一支步枪.贝蒂姨婆跟我讲起她第一次看到那个身着污渍斑斑的蓝军服.长着胡须的人时,她总是说,〝我就像步入一场梦境:可怕的绷带,吓人的气味.孩子,那才是战争的真实写照:没有军号,也没有战旗.有的只是痛苦和污秽,无益与死亡.〞在贝蒂?范?米特眼里,这个伤兵不是敌人,而是一个受苦受难的人.她给他水喝,并设法擦净他那可怕的伤口.然后她走出农舍,到外面呼吸一点清凉的空气,她倚在屋旁,想到她所见到的这一切——他那只打烂的右手,那条失去的左腿,真是恶心难忍.贝蒂在顶楼上找到的伤兵的证件,证实他的身份是第十一佛蒙特志愿军D连中尉亨利?比德尔,30岁.她知道应该把这个联邦政府军官的情况向南方邦联的军队报告,可是她也明白她不会那样做.她是这样向我解释的:〝我一直在想,他是不是在什么地方有一位妻子,等着他,盼着他,可又毫无音信——就像我一样.在我看来,唯一重要的事是让她的丈夫重新田到她的身旁.〞詹姆斯?范?米特的妻子慢慢地.耐心地.巧妙地．点燃了亨利?比德尔身上奄奄一息的生命火花.要说药品,她几乎没有.而她又不肯从南方邦联医院里极少的一点医药用品里去拿.但她尽其所有作了一切努力.当比德尔的体力有所恢复时,他向贝蒂叙说了他在佛蒙特韦斯菲尔德的妻子和子女的J晴况.当贝蒂讲起她的兄弟和詹姆斯时,比德尔也仔细倾听着.贝蒂姨婆总是跟我讲,〝我知道他的妻子一定在为他祈祷,就像我为詹姆斯祈祷一样.真奇怪,我和她的感情多么接近.〞山谷地带,_月的夜晚变得越来越冷.比德尔的伤田感染突然加剧.在迪克和他妻子詹尼的帮助下,贝蒂趁黑夜将这位联邦政府军官搬到她自家暖和的厨房上面的一个不易发现的阁楼上.但在第二天,比德尔发起高烧.贝蒂明白她必须求人帮助,否则他将会死去,因此找到她的家庭医生,多年的朋友格雷厄姆?奥斯本.奥斯本医生为比德尔作了检查,然后摇摇头说,希望甚微,除非能弄到合适的药品. 〝那好,〞贝蒂说.〝我到哈珀斯渡口北方军那儿去弄!〞医生说她想必疯了.联邦政府军的司令部在将近⒛英里之外,即使找到了北方军,他们也决不会相信她的话.〝我把证据带去,〞贝蒂说.她到阁楼上取下一份血迹斑斑的文件,上面盖着陆军部的官印.〝这是他最后一次晋升的记录,〞她说.〝我让他们看这个,他们一定会相信我.〞她叫医生写下所需药品的清单.次日一早,她就登程赶路.她驱车5个小时,马要休息时,她才停一停.当她终于到达哈珀斯渡口,找到司令官的时候,太阳都快落山了.约翰?D?史蒂文森将军听了她的叙述,但不信她的话.他说,〝夫人,我们已接到比德尔阵亡的报告.〞〝他还活着,〞贝蒂坚持说.〝不过,除非他得到单子上的药品,否则他就活不了多久了.〞〝好吧,〞将军最后说,〝我不想为了搞清这r点事,而拿一个巡逻队的生命去冒险.〞他转向一个下级军官说,〝你负责让范?米特太太得到这些药品.〞他对贝蒂的感谢并没有怎么理会,却说道,〝不管你讲的是真是假,你是一位勇敢的女性.〞有了贝蒂带回贝利维尔的药品,奥斯本医生才将比德尔从垂危之中拯救了过来._天之后,比德尔就能拄着迪克为他制作的拐杖一瘸一拐地行走了.〝我不能再这样连累你了,〞比德尔对贝蒂说道,〝我现在身体已经够好了,可以走了.我想尽早回去.〞于是,他们作了安排,由贝蒂的邻居和朋友萨姆先生用他的运货马车协助贝蒂将比德尔送交驻守在哈珀斯渡口的联邦政府军司令部.他们将贝蒂的马和萨姆先生的骡一起套上车.比德尔躺在一个装满干草的旧木箱内,他将步枪和拐杖放在身边.行程迟缓而漫长,差一点以灾难而告终.在离联邦政府军防线仅有1小时的路程时,突然出现了两个骑马的人.一个人举着手枪,逼着要钱.另一人将萨姆从车上拉了下来,贝蒂吓呆了,坐着一动不动.就在这时,一声枪响,拿手枪的歹徒应声倒地身亡.又一声枪响,另一个歹徒也躺倒地上.是比德尔开的枪!贝蒂看着他放下步枪,掸掉头发里的干草.〝上车吧,萨姆先生,〞他说道,〝我们赶路吧!〞在哈珀斯渡口,士兵们惊奇地盯着这位老农民和这位年轻的女子看.当缺了一条腿的联邦政府军官从装着干草的木箱里站起来时,他们更是惊愕不已.比德尔被派去华盛顿.在华盛顿,他把情况向陆军部长埃德温?M?斯坦顿作了汇报.斯坦顿给贝蒂写了一封感谢信,并签署了一项将詹姆斯?范?米特从战俘营释放的命令.可是首先必须找到詹姆斯.经过安排,由比德尔陪同贝蒂寻找她的丈夫.有文件记载,有个叫詹姆斯?范?米特的曾被送到俄亥俄的一个战俘营.可是当那些衣衫褴褛的俘虏们被带到贝蒂面前时,詹姆斯却不在里面.又查了一个俘虏营,结果也是一样.贝蒂?范?米特拼命抑制着一种令人战栗不已的恐惧感,她担心她的丈夫已经死去了.后来在特拉华堡,在靠近一排战俘的末尾处,一个高高个子的人从队伍里走了出来,蹒跚着扑到贝蒂怀里.贝蒂拥抱着他,泪流满面.拄着拐杖站立一旁的亨利?比德尔也流泪了. I never did hate the Yankees. All that I hated was the war...That s how my great-aunt Bettie began her story. I heard it many times as a child, whenever my family visited Aunt Bettie in the old house inBerryville, Virginia. Aunt Bettie was almost 80 years old then. But I couldpicture her as she was in the story she told me- barely _, pretty, with bright blue eyes.Bettie Van Metre had good reason to hate the Civil War. One of her brothers was killed at Gettysburg, another taken prisoner. Then her younghusband, James, a Confederate officer, was captured and sent to an un- known prison camp somewhere.One hot day in late September Dick Runner, a former slave, cameto Bettie with a strange report. He had been checking a farmhouse half a mile away from the Van Metre home, a farmhouse he thought wasempty. But inside, he heard low groans. Following them to the attic, he found a wounded Union soldier, with a rifle at his side.When Aunt Bettie told me about her first sight of the bearded man in the stained blue uniform, she always used the same words. It was like walking into a nightmare : those awful bandages, that dreadful smell. That s what war is really like, child: no bugles and banners. Just pain andfilth, futility and death.To Bettie Van Metre this man was not an enemy but rather a suffering human being. She gave him water and tried to clean his terrible wounds. Then she went out into the cool air and leaned against the house, trying not to be sick as she thought of what she had seen-that smashed right hand, that missing left leg.The man s papers Bettie found in the attic established his identity: Lt.Hey Bedell, Company D, North Vermont Volunteers, 30 years old. She knew that she should report the, presence of this Union officer to the Con-federate army. But she also knew that she would not do it. This is howshee_plained it to me: I kept wondering if he had a wife somewhere, wait- ing, and hoping, and not knowing- just as I was. It seemed to me that the only thing that mattered was to get her husband back to her. 篇三:大学英语精读第三版第三册课后答案大学英语精读第三册第三版(上海外语教育出版社)答案第三版Unit11) accent2) turn against3) a couple of4) takes his time5) fate6) confirmed7) witness8) subsequent9) stands a chance_) trial1) belief2) brilliant3) employment4) has saved up5) stood a chance6) were awarded7) Presumably8) conducted9) casual_) around (which student life) revolves1) Joe wrote to say that he had to put off his visit because of his illness.2) Despite the noise, they went on working as if nothing were happening.3) Traffic was held up for several hours by the accident.4) Called (up) on to speak at the meeting, I couldn t very well refuse.5) Mrs. Stevenson looked in the cupboard and found there was not a single lump of sugar left.6) It was the rumor that turned Joe against his twin brother.7) We wondered how Sara was getting on in her new job.8) Although Anne agreed with me on most points, there was one on which she was unwilling to give in.9) Visitors could photograph almost anything here without having to ask for permission._) Whether we make an e_cursion or stay home will depend on tomorrow s weather.1) uncertain,unafraid,unacceptable,unfamiliar,unequal;2) unanswered,unattached,unknown,undecided,une_pected;3)unhappily,unskillfully,unconsciously,unnecessarily,uncomfortably;4) unsay,undress,untie,unlock,unload.1) reliable2) changeable3) enjoyable4) e_haustible5) permissible6) regrettable7) breakable8) imaginable9) workable_) applicable1) countercharge2) counterattack3) counterpart4) counteract5) countermeasures6) Counterculturists1) Liz sang perfectly in the town hall yesterday afternoon.2) I saw your brother and his girlfriend walking arm in arm in the park the other day.3) It began to blow quite hard before midnight.4) They moved the piano into another room upstairs last evening.5) Come to my office at ten o clock.6) I was still living alone at home at the time.7) Believe it or not, I ran into your cousin in a shop in New York three weeks ago.8) The old couple were sitting quite happily in the garden at this time yesterday.1) It turned out that his methods didn t work at all.2) It turned out that the necklace was not made of diamond, but of glass.3) It turned out that the lost money had been in the safe all the time!4) It turned out that the e_periment was much more difficult than they had supposed.5) It has turned out that your nephew is the most suitable person for the job.6) To his surprise, it turned out that the fashionable young lady he spoke to was a pickpocket.1) Given his age, it was indeed a miracle that he had done so much in so short a time.2) Given that they are fresh from university, the young people have done a good job.。
