U n i t3A H a n g i n g课文翻译Unit 3A HangingA HANGINGGeorge Orwell1. It was in Burma, a sodden morning of the rains. We were waiting outside the condemned cells, a row of sheds fronted with double bars, like small animal cages. Each cell measured about ten feet by ten and was quite bare within except for a plank bed and a pot for drinking water. In some of them brown silent men were squatting at the inner bars, with their blankets draped round them. These were the condemned men, due to be hanged within the next week or two.Detailed Reading2. One prisoner had been brought out of his cell. He was a Hindu, a puny wisp of a man, with a shaven head and vague liquid eyes. Six tall Indian warders were guarding him and getting him ready for the gallows. Two of them stood by with rifles and fixed bayonets, while the others handcuffed him, passed a chain through his handcuffs and fixed it to their belts, and lashed his arms tightly to his sides. They crowded very close about him, with their hands always on him in a careful, caressing grip, as though all the while feeling him to make sure he was there. But he stood quite unresisting, yielding his arms limply to the ropes, as though he hardly noticed what was happening.3. Eight o'clock struck and a bugle call floated from the distant barracks. The superintendent of the jail, who was standing apart from the rest of us, moodily prodding the gravel with his stick, raised his head at the sound. "For God's sake hurry up, Francis," he said irritably. "The man ought to have been dead by this time. Aren't you ready yet?"4. Francis, the head jailer, a fat Dravidian in a white drill suit and gold spectacles, waved his black hand. "Yes sir, yes sir," he bubbled. "All is satisfactorily prepared. The hangman is waiting. We shall proceed."5. "Well, quick march, then. The prisoners can't get their breakfast till this job's over."6. We set out for the gallows. Two warders marched on either side of the prisoner, with their rifles at the slope; two others marched close against him, gripping him by arm and shoulder, as though at once pushing and supporting him. The rest of us, magistrates and the like, followed behind.7. It was about forty yards to the gallows. I watched the bare brown back of the prisoner marching in front of me. He walked clumsily with his bound arms, but quite steadily. At each step his muscles slid neatly into place, the lock of hair on his scalp danced up and down, his feet printed themselves on the wet gravel. And once, in spite of the men who gripped him by each shoulder, he stepped slightly aside to avoid a puddle on the path.8. It is curious, but till that moment I had never realized what it means to destroy a healthy, conscious man. When I saw the prisoner step aside to avoid the puddle I saw the mystery, the unspeakable wrongness, of cutting a life short when it is in full tide. This man was not dying, he was alive just as we are alive. All the organs of his body were working -- bowels digesting food, skin renewing itself, nails growing, tissues forming -- all toiling away in solemn foolery. His nails would still be growing when he stood on the drop, when he was falling through the air with a tenth of a second to live. His eyes saw the yellow gravel and the gray walls, and his brain still remembered, foresaw, reasoned -- reasoned even about puddles. He and we were a party of men walking together, seeing, hearing, feeling, understanding the same world; and in two minutes, with a sudden snap, one of us would be gone -- one mind less, one world less.9. The gallows stood in a small yard. The hangman, a gray-haired convict in the white uniform of the prison, was waiting beside his machine. He greeted us with a servile crouch as we entered. At a word from Francis the two warders, gripping the prisoner more closely than ever, half led half pushed him to the gallows and helped him clumsily up the ladder. Then the hangman climbed up and fixed the rope around the prisoner's neck.10. We stood waiting, five yards away. The warders had formed a rough circle round the gallows. And then, when the noose was fixed, the prisoner began crying out to his god. It was a high, reiterated cry of "Ram! Ram! Ram! Ram!" not urgent and fearful like a prayer or a cry for help, but steady, rhythmical, almost like the tolling of a bell.11. The hangman climbed down and stood ready, holding the lever. Minutes seemed to pass. The steady crying from the prisoner went on and on, "Ram! Ram! Ram!" never faltering for an instant. The superintendent, his head on his chest, was slowly poking the ground with his stick; perhaps he was counting the cries, allowing the prisoner a fixed number -- fifty, perhaps, or a hundred. Everyone had changed color. The Indians had gone gray like bad coffee, and one or two of the bayonets were wavering.12. Suddenly the superintendent made up his mind. Throwing up his head he made a swift motion with his stick. "Chalo!" he shouted almost fiercely.13. There was a clanking noise, and then dead silence. The prisoner had vanished, and the rope was twisting on itself. We went round the gallows to inspect the prisoner's body. He was dangling with his toes pointing straight downward. Very slowly revolving, as dead as a stone.14. The superintendent reached out with his stick and poked the bare brown body; it oscillated slightly. "He's all right," said the superintendent. He backed out from under the gallows, and blew out a deep breath. The moody look had gone out of his face quite suddenly. He glanced at his wrist watch. "Eight minutes past eight. Well, that's all for this morning, thank God."15. The warders unfixed bayonets and marched away. We walked out of the gallows yard, past the condemned cells with their waiting prisoners, into the big central yard of the prison. The convicts were already receiving their breakfast. They squatted in long rows, each man holding a tin pannikin, while two warders with buckets march round ladling out rice; it seemed quite a homely, jolly scene, after the hanging. An enormous relief had come upon us now that the job was done. One felt an impulse to sing, to break into a run, to snigger. All at once everyone began chattering gaily.16. The Eurasian boy walking beside me nodded toward the way we had come, with a knowing smile, "Do you know sir, our friend (he meant the dead man) when he heard his appeal had been dismissed, he pissed on the floor of his cell. From fright. Kindly take one of my cigarettes, sir. Do you not admire my new silver case, sir? Classy European style."17. Several people laughed -- at what, nobody seemed certain.18. Francis was walking by the superintendent, talking garrulously, "Well, sir, all has passed off with the utmost satisfactoriness. It was all finished -- flick! Like that. It is not always so -- oah no! I have known cases where the doctor was obliged to go beneath the gallows and pull the prisoner's legs to ensure decease. Most disagreeable."19. "Wriggling about, eh? That's bad," said the superintendent.20. "Ach, sir, it is worse when they become refractory! One man, I recall, clung to the bars of his cage when we went to take him out. You will scarcely credit, sir, that it took six warders to dislodge him, three pulling at each leg."21. I found that I was laughing quite loudly. Everyone was laughing. Even the superintendent grinned in a tolerant way. "You'd better all come and have a drink," he said quite genially. "I've got a bottle of whiskey in the car. We could do with it."22. We went through the big double gates of the prison into the road. "Pulling at his legs!" exclaimed a Burmese magistrate suddenly, and burst into a loud chuckling. We all began laughing again. At that moment Francis'anecdote seemed extraordinarily funny. We all had a drink together, native and European alike, quite amicably. The dead man was a hundred yards away.1. 那是发生在缅甸的事情。

Questions for ParagraphsParagraph 1: questions1. Where and when did the story take place?The story took place in Burma on a sodden morning of the rains.2. Provide a general description of the condemned cells.The condemned cells, a row of sheds fronted with double bars, were like small animal cages. Each cell was about ten feet long and ten feet wide and was quite bare within except for a plank bed and a pot for drinking water. In some of the cells brown silent men were squatting at the inner bars, with their blankets draped round them.3. Try to understand the different uses of “condemned” in Paragraph 1.“the condemned cells”“the condemned men”The core word of the former is inanimate, while the latter animate.Paragraph 2: questions1. How many warders were guarding the convicted man and preparing him for the gallows? How were the warders guarding the man?Six tall Indian warders were guarding him and getting him ready for the gallows. Two of them stood by with rifles and fixed bayonets, while the others handcuffed him, passed a chain through his handcuffs and fixed it to their belts, and bound his arms tightly to his sides. They crowded very close about him, their hands gripping him carefully all the while, as if feeling him to make sure he was there.2. How did the man react while the warders were getting him ready?The condemned prisoner stood without trying to put up any resistance. He quite willingly let his limp arms be tied up with the ropes, as though he paid no attention to what was happening.Paragraph 6: questionHow was the condemned man escorted to the gallows?Two warders marched on either side of the prisoner, with their rifles at the slope; two others marched close against him, gripping him by arm and shoulder, as though at once pushing and supporting him.Paragraph 7: questionHow did the prisoner walk?He walked clumsily with his bound arms, but quite steadily. At each step his muscles slid neatly into place, the lock of hair on his scalp moved rhythmically up and down, and his feet left footmarks on the wet gravel which formed the surface of the path. And once, in spite of the men who gripped him by each shoulder, he stepped slightly aside to avoid a puddle on the path.Paragraph 8: question1. What is the main idea of this paragraph?This paragraph conveys the message that the writer saw the unspeakable wrongness of putting a life to an end when it is in full tide. In other words, he realized that it was terribly wrong to hang a healthy, conscious man.2. How do you understand the sentence “his eyes saw the yellow gravel and the grey walls”?It paints a picture of the monotonous splashes of colors at the prison, or perhaps the image may relate to grave (which is a symbol of death).This emphasizes the fact that the prisoner is doomed, and providing a touch of depression or death by making use the dull colors.Paragraph 8: activityQuestion for discussionWhat does the author imply by repeating “the prisoner stepped aside to avoid the puddle”? (Para s. 7-8)On one hand it shows that he is mentally and physically healthy and vigilant; on the other hand the puddle may foreshadow his doomed fate of being executed, and that hisvain attempts to avoid the puddles will not be able to help him to escape from it.Paragraph 9: questionWhat does Paragraph 9 tell us?This paragraph first tells us something about the hangman, then it states the fact that the prisoner was half led and half pushed to the gallows, and finally the hangman fixed the rope around the prisoner's neck.Paragraph 10: question1. What do Paragraphs 10 and 11 describe?They describe the most shocking scene: When the noose was fixed, the prisoner began crying out to his god. It was a high, reiterated cry of "Ram! Ram! Ram! Ram!" It was a steady, rhythmical cry, almost like the tolling of a bell. Minutes seemed to pass. The steady crying from the prisoner continued, "Ram! Ram! Ram!" never faltering for an instant. The superintendent perhaps was counting the cries. Everyone was feeling sad, frightened and shocked.2. How do you understand the prisoner’s persistent crying of “Ram! Ram! Ram!” here?Fear?Belief?Protesting?Paragraph 12: questionWho issued the order to hang the prisoner? And how was it given?It was the superintendent who gave the order to execute the prisoner on the gallows. He suddenly made up his mind and issued the order by shouting fiercely.Paragraph 13: questionWhat does Paragraph 13 describe?This paragraph presents a description like this: A clanking noise was followed by dead silence. The prisoner had vanished instantly. An inspection was made of the dead body, which was dangling with his toes pointing straight downward.Paragraph 14: question1. How did the superintendent make sure that the prisoner was dead?The superintendent reached out with his stick and poked the bare brown body; it oscillated slightly. Thus, he made sure that the prisoner was absolutely dead.2. What can be inferred from "Eight minutes past eight. Well, that's all for this morning,thank God." uttered by the superintendent?These two sentences uttered by the superintendent imply that the hanging of the condemned man was about eight minutes late, that the prisoner was the only one who was intended to be hanged that morning, that it was a difficult task to have the prisoner killed, and that hanging condemned prisoners was a daily routine for the superintendent, warders, magistrates, etc. Now that the job was done, the superintendent felt relieved.Paragraph 15: questions1. Describe the scene that the convicts were receiving their breakfast.When the convicts were receiving their breakfast, they squatted in long rows, each man holding a tin pannikin, while two warders with buckets march round ladling out rice; it seemed quite a homely, jolly scene, after the hanging.2. How did the judicial officers feel after the Hindu was hanged?The judicial officers were feeling enormously relieved now that the job was done. One felt an impulse to sing, to break into a run, to snigger. All at once everyone began chattering gaily. Anecdotes were narrated and enjoyed.Paragraph 16: questionWhat anecdote did the Eurasian boy tell the writer?The boy told the writer that his friend (he meant the dead man) had urinated on the floor of his cell from fright when he heard his appeal had been dismissed.Paragraph 18: question1. What did Francis think of the hanging of the Hindu?Francis was satisfied that the Hindu had been hanged most effectively and most satisfactorily because shortly afterwards the dead convict was dangling with his toes pointing straight downwards. Francis had known most disagreeable cases where the doctor was obliged to go beneath the gallows and pull the prisoner's legs to ensure death/decease.2. Why did Francis mention other cases?Because he wanted to make a contrast to emphasize that the death of the Hindu was instant whereas in other difficult cases the doctor was obliged to go beneath the gallows and pull the prisoner's legs to finish the prisoner off.Paragraphs 20-21: questionRetell the head jailer's anecdote which seemed extraordinarily funny to the writer. Is it really funny to you?I don’t think it funny at all. In fact, it was most tragic. It was worse when convictsbecame difficult to control! One man, Francis recalled, clung to the bars in his cage when he and others went to take him out. It was scarcely believable that it took six warders to dislodge him, three pulling at each leg.Obviously, the man's death was a most miserable tragedy; it was absolutely not "exceptionally funny."Paragraphs 21-22: questions1. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?We can infer that in the writer's eyes, the judicial officers, even including the writer, the head jailer, and the superintendent, were all cold-blooded, unfeeling and inhuman. The reasons were quite clear. When the anecdotes were told, the judicial officers thought of them as extremely funny, and laughed or grinned, or chuckled loudly; they all had a drink together quite amicably, though the dead man was just a hundred yards away.2. What is the writer's purpose of narrating this story?By reading the narrative story we can infer the writer's purpose. On the one hand, he intended to tell the readers how badly those convicts in Burma were treated and how tragically they were put to death; on the other hand, the narrator wanted to inform the public how cruel, inhuman and unsympathetic those judicial officers in Burma were becoming. More importantly, the writer purported to assert his stand as an abolitionist.III.

We went round the gallows to make sure that the hanged prisoner was actually dead. [T]7). From what the Eurasian boy said, the hanged man was an undaunted man. [F]II. Writing StrategiesThis text is a piece of dynamic or descriptive narration, telling us a true story about the hanging of a convict in Burma. The narrative text first presents a general description of the poor, simple living conditions of the condemned men before they were put to death on the gallows. Next, it focuses on a dynamic and specific description of how a condemned man, a Hindu, was guarded and escorted to the gallows and how he was hanged. Then, some anecdotes are presented and some events described, which provide food for thought. Evidently, the events are organized mainly in the order of their occurrence, following the natural time sequence. It is to be noted that Paragraphs 9-14 make up the climax of the story.Also, it is not to be overlooked that the first-person narration is adopted, which renders the events described or narrated more vivid, objective and believable, and which makes it possible and convenient for the narrator to put across his own thoughts and feelings in the process of narration. Besides, it is worth our attention that the beginning of this narrative story is well connected with its conclusion. The questions below are to be answered:1. Do you agree that the narrative story is full of dynamic descriptions? If you do, provide examples to support your viewpoint.→ Yes, I do. The story is so full of dynamic verbs that more than 90% of the sentences contain one or two, or even more action verbs. Obvious examples are found in Paragraphs 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15.2. Which paragraphs contain flashbacks?→ Flashbacks are found in Paragraphs 16, 18, and 20.3. What do you know about the advantages of the first-person narration?→The employment of the first person narration renders the events described or the plots narrated more vivid, objective and believable, and makes it possible and convenient for the narrator to express or demonstrate his own thoughts or psychological activities in the process of narration.4. How is the beginning of the story associated with its conclusion?→Both the beginning and the conclusion of the narrative story touch on or briefly describe the hard life and tragic fate of the condemned prisoners.III. Language Work1. Explain the underlined part in each sentence in your own words.1.These were the condemned men, due to be hanged within the next week or two.→ who were scheduled to be hanged2. He was a Hindu, a puny wisp of a man, with a shaven head and vague liquid eyes. → who was a small, thin, and weak man3. They crowded very close about him, with their hands always on him in a careful, caressing grip.→ holding him firmly and continuously in a careful manner4. Two warders marched on either side of the prisoner, with their rifles at the slope. →carrying rifles that tilted over their shoulders5. At each step his muscles slid neatly into place.→ his muscles appeared to be functioning normally6. …and in two minutes, with a sudden snap, one of us would be gone -- one mind less, one world less.→we will lose a man who can also think and reason like us, and who is also a unique individual like each of us2.

The most important problem thatremains (8) unsolved is how to stop crime from happening. So far, different types of solutions have been proposed to (9) bat various crimes. Are they all very (10) effective? No, not at all. Therefore, more effective measures and more powerful actions are to be taken against all sorts of crime so that our world may be a better place to live in.IV. Translation1.

Writing StrategiesThis text is a piece of dynamic or descriptive narration, telling us a true story about the hanging of a convict in Burma. The narrative text first presents a general description of the poor, simple living conditions of the condemned men before they were put to death on the gallows. Next, it focuses on a dynamic and specific description of how a condemned man, a Hindu, was guarded and escorted to the gallows and how he was hanged. Then, some anecdotes are presented and some events described, which provide food for thought. Evidently, the events are organized mainly in the order of theiroccurrence, following the natural time sequence. It is to be noted that Paragraphs 9-14 make up the climax of the story.Also, it is not to be overlooked that the first-person narration is adopted, which renders the events described or narrated more vivid, objective and believable, and which makes it possible and convenient for the narrator to put across his own thoughts and feelings in the process of narration. Besides, it is worth our attention that the beginning of this narrative story is well connected with its conclusion.The questions below are to be answered:1. Do you agree that the narrative story is full of dynamic descriptions? If you do, provide examples to support your viewpoint.→ Yes, I do. The story is so full of dynamic verbs that more than 90% of the sentences contain one or two, or even more action verbs. Obvious examples are found in Paragraphs 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15.2. Which paragraphs contain flashbacks?→ Flashbacks are found in Paragraphs 16, 18, and 20.3. What do you know about the advantages of the first-person narration?→The employment of the first person narration renders the events described or the plots narrated more vivid, objective and believable, and makes it possible and convenient for the narrator to express or demonstrate his own thoughts or psychological activities in the process of narration.4. How is the beginning of the story associated with its conclusion?→Both the beginning and the conclusion of the narrative story touch on or briefly describe the hard life and tragic fate of the condemned prisoners.III.
