第一单元1、Nature had endowed the rest of the human race with a sixth sense and left me out.2、Y ou could hear the wind, trapped in his chest and struggling with all the unnatural impediments. His body would reel with shock and his face go white at the unaccusto med visitation. He would stagger back to his desk and collapse there, useless for the rest of the morning.Y ou could hear that the fresh air had to struggle with difficulty to find its way to his chest, because he was unaccustomed to this as his lungs had been harmed by drinking. His body would lose balance and his face would become pale as a result of the unexpected visit of the wind. He would go back to his desk unsteadily and fall into the chair, unable to do anything for the rest of the morning.3、In this instance, he seemed to me ruled not by thought but by an invisible and irresistible spring in his neck.Mr. Houghton‟s deeds told me that he was not ruled by thought; instead, he would feel a strong urge to turn his head and look at the girls.4、Technically, it is about as proficient as most businessmen‟s golf, as honest as most politicians‟intentions, or as coherent as most books that get written..Technically speaking, it is as skillful as most businessmen‟s golf playing, as honest as most politicians‟ purpose, and as consistent as most books‟ content.5、They have immense solidarity. We had better respect them, for we are outnumbered and surrounded.As they are everywhere and so daunting in number that we‟d better not offend them.6、Man enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way on the side of a hill.Humans enjoy following the crowd as it can bring them peace, security, comfort and harmony, which is like cows eating grass on the same side of a hill.7、To hear our Prime Minister talk about the great benefit we conferred on India by jailing people like Nehru and Gandhi. To hear American politicians talk about peace and refuse to join the League of Nations. Y es, there were moments of delight.Our Prime Minister was a hypocrite to say that the imprisonment of the two major leaders of Free-India Movement-Nehru and Gandhi-was good for India. The American politicians were dissimulators to talk about peace but refuse to join the League of Nations. Those moments made me feel happy.8、I slid my am around her waist and murmured that if we were counting heads, the Buddhists were the boys for my money. She fled. The combination of my arm and those countless Buddhists was too much for her.I slid my arm around her waist and whispered that if we were talking about the number of people who believed in a certain religion , I believed the Buddhists were greater in number. My “indecent” behavior and the daunting number of the Buddhists scared her away.9、It was Ruth all over again. I had some very good friends who stood by me, and still do. But my acquaintance vanished, taking the girls with them.What had happened to Ruth and me now happened again. Although some close friends of mine still stuck by me, my grad-one thinking scared away many of my acquaintances.Paraphrase in Lesson 21. Bella was the boarding-house lovely, but no one had taken advantage of the fact.Bella was young and pretty and was seen as the beauty of the boarding-house, but no one had shown any particular interest in her.2. He possessed a brain, and since no one understood it when he used it, it was resented.Mr. Penbury was intelligent, but no one in the boarding-house liked him for that. He was too smart for them, and everybody felt annoyed.3. But Mrs. Mayton never allowed more than three minutes to go by without a word and so when the silence had reached its allotted span, she turned to Penbury and asked.But Mrs. Mayton would not tolerate any silence for more than three minutes. So when no one broke the silence within three minutes she lost her patience and, turning to Penbury and asked.4. “Now,then,don‟t take too long thinking of an answer!”glared Mr. Calthrop.Mr. Calthrop was urging Mr. Penbury to give an answer immediately so that he would not have the time to make up a story.5. If found the spot all right. The weapon went through Mr. Wainwright‟s heart.6. We all know you walk in your sleep.We all know you are a sleep walker, so you may commit the murder in your sleep.7. “but let me suggest that you give the statement to the police with slightly less emphasis.”Mr. Penbury advises Mr. Calthrop not to put so much emphasis on his statement when talking to the police if he does not want to arouse their suspicion about his story.8.”No,”I answered.”I‟ve come to cure it.”“No,” Miss Wicks answered, “I have come to put an end to your cough.”Unit31. Most students are usually introduced to the study of history by way of a fat textbook and become quickly immersed in a vast sea of names, dates, events and statistics.Most students usually come to have their first experience of the study of history through the reading of a thick history textbook and soon are overwhelmed by a large number of names, dates, events and statistics.2.History, which seemed to be a cut-and-dried matter od memorizing “facts,”now becomes a matter of personal preference.People used to believe history study was just an effort of memorizing “facts.”Now history means different things to different people,because they choose the best description andiinterpretation according to their own preferences among those given by historians.3.They cannot help but feel that two diametrically opposed points of view about an event cannot both be right;yet they lack the ability to decide between them.They cannot help feeling that two absolutely opposite ideas about an event cannot both be correct,but they do not have the ability to judge which one is right.4.They will read of the interception of the “Zimmerman Note,”in which the German foreign secretary order German minister in Mexico,in the event of war,to suggest an alliance between German and Mexico whereby Mexico,with German support,could win back territory taken from Mexico by the United States in the Mexican War.They will come across the historical interception of the “Zimmerman Note.”In that telegraph,the German foreign secretary gave order to German minister in Mexico and asked him to propose an alliance with Mexico Government in case there would be war and to promise that Mexico Government would like to help Mexico win back the land that was taken away from Mexico by the US in the Mexico war.5.Can we eliminate all disagreement?If the state of our knowledge were such that it provided us with a model of unquestioned validity that completely explained human behavior,we can.We can get rid of all disagreements if our knowledge could give us a perfect model that completely explained human behavior.Unfortunately,such model doed not exist.Unit41.”My parents,and my wife‟s parents,and our priest,decided that I wasn‟t feeling up to it.And finally I decided so too.”“My parents, my wife‟s parents and our priest all thought that I‟d pretend to be not feeling well enough as an excuse to be absent from the awarding ceremony.So I decided not to attend the ceremony.”2.”…I‟m a sculptor,not a demonstrator.”“I‟m a sculptor,and I don‟t want to show any antagonistic feeling towards the white world by receiving an award.”3.In Orlando you develop a throat of ironIn Orlando you (the blacks) gradually develop a throat as strong as iron.4.… so I thought I‟d go and see the window, and indulge certain pleasurable human feelings.So I thought I‟d go and see my sculpture in the window and have some pleasant feelings of pride by enjoying my own work,which is natural to human beings.5.”Y ou know it‟s by one of your own boys,don‟t you?”“What is extraordinary about the wonderful sculpture is that it is made by a black man like you.Do you know?”6.”She knows it won‟t be an easy life.”“She knows that her child will live a hard life in South Africa because they are black people.”7.I didn‟t feel like a drink at that time of night..I didn‟t want to drink because if the police caught me drinking late at night I would be in great trouble.8.He wasn‟t lookin g round to see if anyone might be watching.He wasn‟t afraid of being seen walking with a black man.9.I said unwillingly,”Y es.”I answered “Y es”,but actually I didn‟t want to tell him the truth.10.Now I certainly had not expected that I would have my drink in the passaage.I wasn‟t onlyfeeling what you may be thinking …Drinking in the passage was certainly beyond my expectation.What was in my mind was not what you may be thinking…11.“Our land is beautiful. But it breaks my heart.”“Our country is beautiful.But the apartheid made me very sad.”12….as though they wanted..to touch me somewhere and didn‟t know how….as though they wanted to communicate with me emotionally but didn‟t know the way to do it 13.And I thought it was a pity he was blind, for if men never touch each other, they‟ll hurt each other one day.And I thought it was a sad thing, because if you don‟t understand each other and don‟t care for each other, they will hurt each other some day.14.What he was thinking,God knows, but I was thinking he was like a man trying to run a race iniron shoes, and not understanding why he cannot move.Nobody knows what he was thinking.But I was thinking that he was much like a man trying to run but couldn‟t because he was still not completely free fro m racist prejudices which were dragging his feet like iron shoes.第五单元1.He treated Nerys like—well, there were times when—not just me, you understand…We allcould have done.The man Nerys was engaged to left her after she had become disfigured. But before the bank raid, he behaved like a lover. Many man, not just me, could have done the same if we had engaged with her.2.This man… treated her as only a handsome man can treat a beautiful woman.This man loved her only because she was beautiful. So he left her when she was no longer beautiful.3.We used to…When we were…We used to love this music when we were in love.4.I‟m sorry.I‟m sorry about what hapended to Netys.5.Sorry. I didn‟t mean to…I didin‟t mean to hurt you by offering money, because I know it‟s impossible for us to compensate in any way for the distress and suffering that Nerys and you have gone through.6.Or is it because it‟s us who are offering?Y ou don‟t accept our help only because Vic was responsible for her suffering.7.Y ou stick with him. Y ou stick with Vic. If you …re looking for heros .Y ou are with a hero if you are looking for a hero and that‟s Vic rather than me, so don‟t leave him.8….and I love him so much, Mrs Parks, and I‟m ever so sorry…I love Vic very much. I feel guilty about this because Vic is your husband.9. Sharon, it‟s a passing thing, I promise.Sharon, I can assure you that this experience is transient and won‟t last long. We all have the feeling when we are young.10.Y ou never hear good about yourself, do you?Y ou never hear people speak ill of you, do you? People gossip about you.11.Y ou know bloody well what you‟ve done to her…Y ou know clearly that you have been hurting her.12.I am not being shouted at.Beware of your manners. Stop shouting at me!13.If she dies, vic, if that girl dies…If Sharon gets drowned, you will be held responsible.14.Right. There is about to be some serious damage done, I can tell you…I will make you pay what you have done to me. Y ou will be punished for what you have done to me.15.No, Sharon, I‟d rather you…Sharon,you‟d better not do anything. Y ou have done enough to him.第六单元1.They rest upon mere tradition, or on somebody‟s bare assertion unsupported by even a shadow of proof…They are merely based on tradition, or on someone‟s statement that cannot be supported even by the least amount of proof…2.But if the staunchest Roman Catholic and the staunchest Presbyterian had been exchanged when infants, and if they had been brought up with home and all other influences reversed, we can have very little doubt what the result would have been.But the staunchest Roman Catholic would be the staunchest Presbyterian, and vice verse ifthey were exchanged when they were infants and brought up in opposite homes and under different influences.3.It is consistent with all our knowledge of psychology to conclude that…We can get the conclusion that each would have grown up with just the opposite beliefs to what they have now, and this is in agreement with our knowledge of psychology…4…we should remember that the whole history of the development of human thought has been full of cases of such “obvious truths”breaking down when examined in the light of increasing knowledge and reason.When we tend to say that any general truth is obvious and to doubt it is foolish, then we should remember that in the history of the development of human thought there have been many obvious truths which break down as knowledge and reason increase.5.The age-long struggle of the greatest intellects in the world to shake off that assumption is one of the marvels of history.The great learners spent hundreds of years struggling against the assumption that the planets moved in circles. The success of getting rid of that assumption is one of the miracles in human history.6.Many modern persons find it very difficult to credit the fact that men can ever have supposed otherwise.In modern time, it is difficult for many people used to believe that human beings think not with mind but with heart.7.We adopt and cling to some beliefs because—or partly because—it “pays” us to do so. But, as a rule, the person concerned is about the last person in the world to be able to recognize this in himself.We accept and continue to hold some beliefs because—or partly because—it brings us benefits. But generally the person involved maybe the least competent in recognizing thia himself.8.There is many a man who is unconsciously compelled to cling to a belief because he is a “somebody” in some circle--There are a lot of men who unconsciously are forced to hold a belief because he is very important in a circle. If he gives up that belief, he would not be important any more.第八单元1. As the edge of a new century, globalization is a double-edged sword: a powerful vehicle…, but an immensely controversial process that assaults national sovereignty; erodes local culture and tradition and threatens economic and social instability.As the new century is coming, globalization is like a sword which has two edges: it can have both negative and positive effects. On one hand, it can increase economic production, spread newtechnology and improve the living standards of the rich and poor countries; on the other hand, it is also a very controversial process because it threatens national independency, destroys local culture and tradition, and it may cause economic and social instability.2. In 1990, private flows (bank loans, bond financing, equity investment in local stock markets and direct investment by multinational companies ) total an estimated $136 billion to these 29 countries.In 1990, the private capital (bank loans, bond financing, equity investment in local stock markets and direct investment by multinational companies ) flowing into these 29 countries is estimated to have reached a total of $136 billion.3.Behind the merger boom lies the growing corporate conviction that many markets have become truly global. By trying to maximize their presence in as many nations as possible, companies seek to achieve of scale…The reason for the merger boom is that more and more companies have a strong belief that many markets have become truly global. Trying their best to enter other countries‟markets, companies are eager to realize economies of scale…4….as a result of “crony capitalism,”inept government investment policies and excess optimism……because of the corruption in those countries where political and financial resources are in the hands of a few privileged people along with their dishonest friends, their foolish government policies and unreasonable optimism…5.The street protesters… may have lacked a common agenda or even a coherent case against trade. But they… reflected the anxiety and anger that globalization often inspires.The street protesters at the Seattle meeting of the World Trade Organization in early December may not have a common program or a good reason against free trade. But they showed clearly their worries and anger about globalization. European fears of GM food or opposition to cross-border mergers also showed their worries and anger.。
